Prediction of the SVOM MXT camera end of life spectral performance based onproton irradiation results
SVOM, the Space-based Variable astronomical Object Monitor, launched on June 22nd 2024, is a Chinese-French mission focused on exploring the brightest phenomena in the cosmos - Gamma-Ray Bursts. Among the four instruments on board is the Micro-channel X-ray Telescope (MXT). The MXT camera features a 256x256 pixel pnCCD detector to perform X-ray imaging and spectroscopy in the 0.2-10 keV energy range. Cruising in a low-Earth orbit (600 km) that crosses the South Atlantic Anomaly, the MXT focal p…

A Relativistic Jet in the Radio Quiet AGN Mrk 110
We report the discovery of a relativistic jet in Mrk~110, a narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy historically classified as a radio-quiet active galactic nucleus (AGN). Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations reveal intermittent jet activity during 2015--2016 and 2022--2024, with proper motion measurements yielding superluminal velocities of $\sim3.6\pm0.6\,c$ and $\sim2.1\pm0.2\,c$, respectively. The recent jet component decelerates to $\sim 1.5\pm0.2\,c$ at a projected distance of 1.1 p…

Detection of "diffuse" coronal He I 1083 during the April 8 2024 Solar Eclipse: evidence for terrestrial atmospheric scattering origin
Strong He I 1083 nm atomic line signals have been previously measured during total solar eclipses at coronal heights above the lunar limb. This rather unexpected measurement has kindled a discussion about the hypothesized presence of significant amounts of neutral helium at coronal conditions. We performed spectroscopic observations of the He I 1083 nm spectroscopic region with the newly built CHEESE instrument during the April 8th 2024 total solar eclipse to test the presence of He I 1083 in t…

Natural experiments from Earth Hour reveal urban night sky being drastically lit up by few decorative buildings
Light pollution, a typically underrecognized environmental issue, has gained attention in recent years. While controlling light pollution requires sustained efforts, Earth Hour offers a unique natural experimental setting to assess temporary lights-out measures. Using photometric and spectroscopic sensors, we observed up to 50% night sky darkening during Earth Hour from 2011 to 2024 in Hong Kong, primarily as a result of a small but critical number of lights-out instances in central business di…

Fundamental Solutions of the Logarithmic Laplacian: An Approach via the Division Problem
Existence of the fundamental solution of the logarithmic Laplacian (in dimensions $d \geq 3$) was established by Huyuan Chen and Laurent Véron (2024). In this note, we present an alternative approach, based on a modification on the classical division problem. This is inspired by the theory of fundamental solutions by Malgrange and Ehrenpreis. Moreover, we give a variant of the Liouville theorem for the logarithmic Laplacian and give some further clarification regarding a conjecture posed by Ch…

Symmetry-breaking motility of an active hinge in a crowded channel
A recent experiment [Son et al., Soft Matter, 2024, 20,2777-2788] showed that self-propelled particles confined within a circular boundary filled with granular medium spontaneously form a motile cluster that stays on the boundary. This cluster exhibits persistent (counter)clockwise motion driven by symmetry breaking, which arises from a positive feedback between the asymmetry of the cluster and those of the surrounding granular medium. To investigate this symmetry-breaking mechanism in broader …

Ball path curvature and in-game free throw shooting proficiency in the National Basketball Association
Basketball shooting coaches agree that smoother shooting motions are better, but there is less agreement about what "smooth" means quantitatively or what part of the shooting motion needs to be smooth. Using ball tracking data from the 2023-2024 National Basketball Association regular season, we explore the relationship between ball path curvature and free throw shooting performance. We fit Bézier curves to the ball tracking data in the sagittal plane and test different methods of calculating …

Bounded variation separates weak and strong average Lipschitz
We closely examine a notion of average smoothness recently introduced by Ashlagi et al. (JMLR, 2024). The latter defined a {\em weak} and {\em strong} average-Lipschitz seminorm for real-valued functions on general metric spaces. Specializing to the standard metric on the real line, we compare these notions to bounded variation (BV) and discover that the weak notion is strictly weaker than BV while the strong notion strictly stronger. Along the way, we discover that the weak average smooth clas…

Mixed phases in a Fermi--Hubbard model describing altermagnetism
We study an extension of the 2D Fermi--Hubbard model, which was recently introduced in [Das et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 132, 263402 (2024)] and shown to describe altermagnetism that can be studied in cold atom systems. Using an updated Hartree--Fock method that can detect instabilities towards phase separation, we show that the model is in a mixed phase in large parts of the parameter regime at half-filling. We argue that the occurrence of a mixed phase is an indication of exotic physics which, in…

Refugees' path to legal stability is long and systematically unequal
Legal systems shape not only the recognition of migrants and refugees but also the pace and stability of their integration. Refugees often shift between multiple legal classifications, a process we refer to as the "legal journey". This journey is frequently prolonged and uncertain. Using a network-based approach, we analyze legal transitions for over 350,000 migrants in Austria (2022 to 2024). Refugees face highly unequal pathways to stability, ranging from two months for Ukrainians to nine mon…

Ein Zitat wird rasch von internationalen Medien aufgegriffen und geht viral:
"Wir leben in einer Ära der Remakes und Franchises. Ich habe dreimal Fortsetzungen gedreht, aber das interessiert mich schon lange nicht mehr. Meine Philosophie ist, mach etwas Neues oder bleib zu Hause".
Am 2.6. nun druckt Deadline ein Statement von Eastwood ab: er habe seit Wochen niemandem ein Interview gegeben, und sicher nicht dem Kurier. Das Interview sei gefälscht.
Der Kurier prüft nun den Sachverhalt, was "angesichts der Zeitverschiebung in die USA etwas dauern wird". (Lol)
Auch interessant: im Interview ist davon die Rede, dass Eastwoods Film "Juror #2" "Ende des Jahres" in die Kinos komme. Bloß war das Ende 2024 der Fall. Ist das Interview eventuell schon ein Jahr alt?
