It may not come as a surprise that the fracking billionaire who helped launch The Daily Wire has also denied that the climate emergency is real.

Admissible solutions of the 2D Onsager's conjecture
We show that for any $γ< \frac{1}{3}$ there exist Hölder continuous weak solutions $v \in C^γ([0,T] \times \mathbb{T}^2)$ of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations that strictly dissipate the total kinetic energy, improving upon the elegant work of Giri and Radu [Invent. Math., 238 (2), 2024]. Furthermore, we prove that the initial data of these \textit{admissible} solutions are dense in $B^γ_{\infty,r<\infty}$. Our approach introduces a new class of traveling waves, refining …

Assignment of collision-induced four-level double-resonance transitions in the 3$ν$${_3}$ ${\Leftarrow}$ $ν$${_3}$ spectral region of methane
Optical-optical double-resonance (OODR) spectroscopy using a narrow-linewidth pump and a frequency comb probe has previously been used to measure and assign sub-Doppler transitions in the 3$ν$${_3}$ ${\Leftarrow}$ $ν$${_3}$ spectral region [J. Chem. Phys. 161, 124311 (2024)] when pumping from the J = (7, A${_2}$) ground state. Doppler-broadened double-resonance transitions were also observed in those OODR spectra. In this paper, 68 of these Doppler-broadened transitions are assigned to four-l…

Personalized Large Language Models Can Increase the Belief Accuracy of Social Networks
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly involved in shaping public understanding on contested issues. This has led to substantial discussion about the potential of LLMs to reinforce or correct misperceptions. While existing literature documents the impact of LLMs on individuals' beliefs, limited work explores how LLMs affect social networks. We address this gap with a pre-registered experiment (N = 1265) around the 2024 US presidential election, where we empirically explore the impact of …

Discovery and Localization of the Swift-Observed FRB 20241228A in a Star-forming Host Galaxy
On 2024 December 28, CHIME/FRB detected the thus-far non-repeating FRB 20241228A with a real-time signal-to-noise ratio of $>50$. Approximately 112~s later, the X-ray Telescope onboard the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory was on source, the fastest follow-up to-date of a non-repeating FRB (Tohuvavohu et al. in prep.). Using CHIME/FRB and two of the three CHIME/FRB Outriggers, we obtained a Very Long Baseline Interferometry localization for FRB 20241228A with a 1$σ$ confidence ellipse of 11$^{\pr…

Prediction of the aqueous redox properties of functionalized quinones using a new QM/MM variational formulation
We recently proposed a method coupling quantum mechanics (QM) methods and molecular density functional theory (MDFT) to describe mixed quantum-classical systems [J. Chem. Phys. 161, 014113 (2024)]. This approach is particularly appropriate to account for solvent effect into QM calculations. We introduce a new variational formulation for the grand potential of a mixed quantum-classical system. Within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and neglecting electronic entropy, the quantum solute is desc…

Efficient vectorized evaluation of Gaussian AO integrals on modern central processing units
We report an implementation of the McMurchie-Davidson evaluation scheme for 1- and 2-particle Gaussian AO integrals designed for efficient execution on modern central processing units (CPUs) with Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) instruction sets. Like in our recent MD implementation for graphical processing units (GPUs) [J. Chem. Phys. 160, 244109 (2024)], variable-sized batches of shellsets of integrals are evaluated at a time. By optimizing for the floating point instruction throughput…

A Bayesian analysis of home advantage in professional squash
We estimate the effect of playing in one's home country in professional squash using a Bayesian hierarchical model applied to men's and women's Professional Squash Association matches from 2018-2024. The model incorporates players' world rankings and whether they are competing in their home country. Using margin of victory in games as our outcome, we estimate that home advantage adds 0.4 games for men and 0.3 games for women to the expected margin, with standard errors of 0.1. For evenly matche…

All-sky search for individual Primordial Black Hole bursts with LHAASO
Primordial Black Holes~(PBHs) are hypothetical black holes with a wide range of masses that formed in the early universe. As a result, they may play an important cosmological role and provide a unique probe of the early universe. A PBH with an initial mass of approximately $10^{15}$~g is expected to explode today in a final burst of Hawking radiation. In this work, we conduct an all-sky search for individual PBH burst events using the data collected from March 2021 to July 2024 by the Water Che…

Today in “silly billboards in my community”. The first is by the very “truthful” (/s) people at LNGfacts.ca. Of course, the word "LNGfacts" does not appear anywhere in the dictionary because it's made up nonsense. Just like the "fact" that LNG “makes Canada stronger”... like we're going to win the war in Ukraine with our LNG or fend off #TheAmericanFascist. (Note: LNG is a tool of fascists not the other way around)
This billboard used to say “BC LNG WILL REDUCE GLOBAL EMISSIONS”... with a link to ‘bclnghelps.ca' but that was so clearly a lie that they were forced by the courts to remove it and delete their website, but I made a website instead in their honour called: bclngburns.ca
Back to today's billbboard though... Here's a fact from February 2025: “European LNG imports fell by 19% in 2024 as gas consumption reached an 11-year low, thanks, in part, to renewable energy additions.” (#BCPoli #BCLNG #ClimateAction #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion #LNG #NaturalGas #Europe #EU #Ukraine #Russia
