Apache Point rapid response characterization of primitive pre-impact detection asteroid 2024 RW$_1$
Pre-impact detection asteroids (PIDAs) may be detected only a few hours before their impact with Earth, providing a brief opportunity to characterize them before impact. We describe the characterization of PIDA 2024 RW$_1$, which was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on 2024 September 4 at 05:43 UTC, before it entered the atmosphere near the northern Philippines at 16:39 UTC. We observed 2024 RW$_1$ with the Astrophysical Research Consortium Telescope Imaging Camera on the Apache Point Astr…

From Knowledge to Noise: CTIM-Rover and the Pitfalls of Episodic Memory in Software Engineering Agents
We introduce CTIM-Rover, an AI agent for Software Engineering (SE) built on top of AutoCodeRover (Zhang et al., 2024) that extends agentic reasoning frameworks with an episodic memory, more specifically, a general and repository-level Cross-Task-Instance Memory (CTIM). While existing open-source SE agents mostly rely on ReAct (Yao et al., 2023b), Reflexion (Shinn et al., 2023), or Code-Act (Wang et al., 2024), all of these reasoning and planning frameworks inefficiently discard their long-term …

The chemical yields of stars in the range 9-15 Msun
In Limongi et al. (2024) we presented and discussed the main evolutionary properties and final fate of stars in the mass range 7-15 Msun. The evolutions of those models were computed by means of a medium size nuclear network that guaranteed a proper calculation of the nuclear energy generation and hence a good modeling of the physical evolution of these stars. In the present paper, we extend this study by computing the detailed chemical yields of stars in the mass range 9-15 Msun, i.e., those s…

Are there stars in Bluesky after the return of Donald Trump to the White House?
This study examines the shift in the scientific community from X (formerly Twitter) to Bluesky, its impact on scientific communication, and consequently on social metrics (altmetrics). We analysed 14,497 publications from multidisciplinary and Library and Information Science (LIS) journals between January 2024 and March 2025. The results reveal a notable increase in Bluesky activity for multidisciplinary journals in November 2024, likely influenced by political and platform changes, with mentio…

Unveiling the Complex Jet Dynamics in the Blazar 2021+317 through Multi-Epoch VLBI Observations
We present an investigation of the compact structure of the AGN 2021+317 based on multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations at 15, 22, and 43 GHz in the period from 2013 through 2024. The VLBI images show a core-jet structure extended to the south, with two stationary components in the northern region, one of which likely to be the core of the source. We also detected two new moving jet components (S4 and S5) in the observations of 2021. Based on these observational find…

Cauchy problem and dependency analysis for logarithmic Schr\"odinger equation on waveguide manifold

Cauchy problem and dependency analysis for logarithmic Schrödinger equation on waveguide manifold
In this paper, we develop a novel idea to study $y$-dependence for the logarithmic Schrödinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^d \times \mathbb{T}^n$. Unlike \cite{STNT2014}(Analysis \& PDE, 2014) and \cite{HHYL2024}(SIAM J. Math. Anal., 2024), the heart of the matter is that the scaling argument is invalid. Moreover, we also consider the Cauchy problem, which transforms the variational analysis into dynamical stability results.

MOA-2022-BLG-091Lb and KMT-2024-BLG-1209Lb: Microlensing planets detected through weak caustic-crossing signals
The light curves of the microlensing events MOA-2022-BLG-091 and KMT-2024-BLG-1209 exhibit anomalies with very similar features. These anomalies appear near the peaks of the light curves, where the magnifications are moderately high, and are distinguished by weak caustic-crossing features with minimal distortion while the source remains inside the caustic. To achieve a deeper understanding of these anomalies, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the lensing events. We carried out binary-len…

Counting Small Induced Subgraphs: Scorpions Are Easy but Not Trivial
We consider the parameterized problem $\#$IndSub$(Φ)$ for fixed graph properties $Φ$: Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, this problem asks to count the number of induced $k$-vertex subgraphs satisfying $Φ$. Dörfler et al. [Algorithmica 2022] and Roth et al. [SICOMP 2024] conjectured that $\#$IndSub$(Φ)$ is $\#$W[1]-hard for all non-meager properties $Φ$, i.e., properties that are nontrivial for infinitely many $k$. This conjecture has been confirmed for several restricted types of prop…

Borrowing on Belief? Consumer Confidence and U.S. Credit -- A VECM Study
This study explores the interdependent relationship between consumer credit and consumer confidence in the United States using monthly data from January 1978 to August 2024. Utilizing a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), the analysis focuses on the interplay between household borrowing behaviour and consumer sentiment while controlling for macroeconomic factors such as interest rates, inflation, unemployment, and money supply. The results reveal a stable long-run equilibrium: heightened cons…

Response to comment on Mutualism weaken the latitudinal diversity gradient among oceanic islands
In our original paper (Delavaux et al. 2024; https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07110-y), we find that the latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) in plant species richness is reduced on oceanic islands worldwide. Moreover, we find that plants that associate with mutualists, including pollinators, AM fungi, and N-fixing bacteria, disproportionately contribute to this reduction. To make this assertion, we fit models of continental diversity to absolute latitude and compared mainland diversi…

Investigating the 2024 swarm like activity offshore Kefalonia Island aided by Machine Learning algorithms
In March 2024, a swarm like seismic activity occurred north of Kefalonia Island, in the central Ionian Islands area. Following a machine-learning aided workflow, we compiled an enhanced seismic catalog of 2495 low to moderate magnitude earthquakes throughout a 2 month period. Spatiotemporal analysis reveals a narrow epicentral distribution of nearly E-W alignment, approximately 5km long, much longer than the length anticipated by common scaling laws for the aftershock area extension of the stro…

Comment on "Politicizing science funding undermines public trust in science, academic freedom, and the unbiased generation of knowledge"
In a commentary published in mid-2024 (to which the present work is a direct response), a number of scientists argue that U.S. funding agencies have "politicized" the process by which grants are awarded, in service of diversifying the scientific workforce. The commentary in question, however, makes numerous unfounded assertions while recycling citations to a fusillade of opinion essays written by the same cabal of authors, in an effort to resemble a work of serious scholarship. Basic fact-check…

I nearly missed the fact it's been a year since I translated @… Meta in Myanmar series to Polish.
A year later, I can confidently say that series radicalized me quite a bit.
I've hated Meta products for a while, so not much has changed in that department.
However, re-reading the story of Rohingya ethnic cleansing over and over again made me grow plenty of sheer anger within me.
Anger over general injustice in the world and stuff.
My third 'era' of photography, involving documenting local activism, with particular attention to oppressed or marginalized groups (tenants, Palestinians, Belarusians - to name just a few) wouldn't have happened if I hadn't had my moment of disillusionment about the whole system we live in.
All of that because I started noticing familiar patterns I haven't been aware before. All stories that involve oppression, genocide, ethnic cleansing or any other kind of systemic cruelty started rhyming to me. Only the context and the environment kept changing.
Literally everything about my current life has changed around April 2024 and only now I'm ready to take a look at that.
Anyway. To all of you who want to read that once again:

The evolution of CME sheath turbulence from L1 to Earth: Wind and MMS observations of the 2023-04-23 CME
An interplanetary shock driven by a coronal mass ejection (CME) containing an interval of sub-Alfvénic flow impacted Earth on April 23, 2024. In this article, we analyze the turbulence in the sheath region between the shock and CME to determine how it evolves from L1 (as observed by Wind) to Earth (as observed by MMS, upstream of the bow shock). Wind and MMS were separated by $55\,\mathrm{R_{E}}$ in the dawn-dusk direction, but the shock normals differ by only $2.8^{\circ}$ and the Pearson cor…

Electric fields and waves in the Venus nightside magnetosphere
On November 6, 2024, the Parker Solar Probe flew past Venus to make the first accurate electric field measurement in the nightside Venusian magnetosphere. To achieve this result, the electric field antennas were current biased in a way never before experienced by an electric field detector. This biasing requirement, that the positive bias current in the Venus shadow be about equal to the electron thermal current, is discussed and illustrated. About one minute of useful electric f ield data in t…
