Brazil generates 88% of power from renewables in 2024
Brazil’s electricity mix was 88% renewable in 2024, with wind and solar supplying about 24% of total demand, according to new data from state-owned energy agency Empresa de Pesquisa Energetica (EPE).

Banks bet big on fossil fuels, boosting financing in 2024, report finds
Financing for the fossil fuel sector from the world’s largest banks surged in 2024 to $869 billion, according to a recent report by the Rainforest Action Network (RAN) and other environmental groups. That figure represents an increase of nearly 23% compared to 2023. The $162.5 billion increase channeled to companies doing business in fossil fuels […]

Ik had helemaal gemist dat hij was overleden, fantastische, onvergeterlijke man. Ik heb nog les van hem gehad, rond 1977, in de duinen, over mierennesten en de duinen in het algemeen.

Gerrit Jan (1932–2024) gaf zijn ongekende veldkennis door aan academici en tienduizenden schoolkinderen
Als Haagse jongen leerde hij de duinen kennen. Gerrit Jan de Bruyn werd bioloog, gespecialiseerd in de Rode bosmier, en de beschermheer van Meijendel. Dit is het bijzondere levensverhaal van Gerrit Jan de Bruyn (15 augustus 1932 – 29 oktober 2024).

Black holes with electroweak hair -- the detailed derivation
We present a very detailed derivation of solutions describing hairy black holes within the gravity-coupled Weinberg-Salam theory, which were previously reported in \href{https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.133.171402}{Phys.Rev.Lett. 133 (2024) 171402}. These black holes support a strong magnetic field that polarizes the electroweak vacuum and creates a condensate of massive fields carrying superconducting currents along the black hole horizon. The currents, in turn, generate a ``corona'' of mag…

Finom, an Amsterdam-based challenger bank for SMBs that claims to have doubled its revenue in 2024, closed a €115 million Series C equity round (around $133 million).

Wooo, my ProtonDB post was posted. I'm hoping this helps out other folks with getting MSFS 2024 working.

The Trump regime's coordinated repression did not come from nowhere.
In 2024, TheNew York Times reported that the Trump transition team was already planning to use emergency powers, such as the one Trump invoked on June 7,
to confront political opponents who protest the administration.
While the Trump administration planned this move for about a year,
the deployment of troops in Los Angeles is the brutal culmination of a yearslong campaign to systematically erod…

Non-uniform bounds for non-normal approximation via Stein's method with applications to the Curie--Weiss model and the imitative monomer-dimer model

Non-uniform bounds for non-normal approximation via Stein's method with applications to the Curie--Weiss model and the imitative monomer-dimer model
This paper establishes a non-uniform Berry--Esseen bound for non-normal approximation using Stein's method. The main theorem generalizes the result of the authors in [Comptes Rendus Mathematique, 2024] to the context of non-normal approximation. As an application of the main result, we derive non-uniform Berry--Esseen bounds in non-central limit theorems for the magnetization in the Curie--Weiss model and the imitative monomer-dimer model. These extend some existing results in the literature, i…

Energy Spectra of Secondary Particles Induced by Solar Energetic Proton Events and Magnetospheric Effects

Energy Spectra of Secondary Particles Induced by Solar Energetic Proton Events and Magnetospheric Effects
We investigate the energy spectra of secondary cosmic ray particles associated with two distinct solar events: the magnetospheric effect (ME) of 5 November 2023 and ground-level enhancement (GLE 74) of 11 May 2024. Using data from the SEVAN and Neutron Monitor networks and energy release histograms from particle spectrometers, we reconstruct spectra and identify key differences between ME and GLE. CORSIKA-based simulations reveal that MEs are caused by galactic protons below geomagnetic cutoff …
