Survival of the accretion disk in LMC Recurrent Nova 1968-12a: UV--X-ray case study of the 2024 eruption
We report on UV and X-ray observations of the 2024 eruption of the recurrent nova LMCN 1968-12a, a rapidly recurring extragalactic system with a $\sim$4.3 year recurrence period and a massive white dwarf (WD). The eruption was discovered on 2024 August 1.8 by \textit{Swift}, and subsequently monitored using \textit{AstroSat}'s UVIT and SXT, along with Swift/UVOT and XRT. The multi-wavelength light curves reveal a rapid UV-optical decline, followed by a plateau phase exhibiting 1.26-day modulati…

State-Dependent X-ray Variability in Cygnus X-1: A 12-Year NuSTAR Timing Study of Accretion Flow Geometry
We present a comprehensive timing analysis of the black hole X-ray binary Cygnus X-1 using 26 NuSTAR observations spanning 2012-2024, providing the most detailed characterization to date of its accretion flow variability across spectral states. Our analysis reveals fundamental insights into the physics governing state transitions in stellar-mass black holes. We discover distinct bimodal flux distributions in the 8-79 keV band with well-separated peaks, contrasting with overlapping distributions…

Things I have read in major newspapers and cyber publications over the past week that are just really fiction, totally false, and yet have become conventional wisdom among cyber journos:
--TP-Link routers are a US security threat. (not more than any other router)
--The SEC's settlement with SolarWinds is evidence of how little Trump cares about cyber (utterly false -- fed judge pooped on the SEC's legality in 2024 and much more).
--Coinbase is playing fast and loose…

»Auch wenn tüchtige Sekretärinnen immer sehr geschätzt wurden, zeigt sich hier ein respektvoller Umgang, der in den späteren Jahren verloren ging. Möglicherweise lag es daran, dass Sekretär zu dieser Zeit ein angesehener Männerberuf war und die ersten Sekretärinnen von diesem Ansehen profitierten. Oftmals verlieren Berufe ihren Status, wenn er zu einem Frauenberuf wird.«

Fine-Grained Classification Of Detecting Dominating Patterns
We consider the following generalization of dominating sets: Let $G$ be a host graph and $P$ be a pattern graph $P$. A dominating $P$-pattern in $G$ is a subset $S$ of vertices in $G$ that (1) forms a dominating set in $G$ \emph{and} (2) induces a subgraph isomorphic to $P$. The graph theory literature studies the properties of dominating $P$-patterns for various patterns $P$, including cliques, matchings, independent sets, cycles and paths. Previous work (Kunnemann, Redzic 2024) obtains algori…

Probing spectral variability in NGC 4490 ULX-8 over 24 years of XMM-Newton, Chandra and Swift-XRT observations
We present comprehensive spectral and timing results of 14 Chandra, 6 XMM-Newton and 19 Swift-XRT observations of the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 4490 ULX-8, spanning from 2000 to 2024. We model the source spectra using absorbed power-law and absorbed multicolour disc blackbody models. The best-fit photon indices span 0.92-2.68, with typical uncertainties ranging from $\pm$0.1 to $\pm$1 depending on data quality. The inner disk temperature range from 0.97 to 1.69 keV, consistent with blackbo…

Radio Stars in the Era of New Observatories
An international conference Radio Stars in the Era of New Observatories was held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Haystack Observatory on 2024 April 17-19. The conference brought together more than 60 researchers from around the world, united by an interest in using radio wavelength observations to explore the physical processes that operate in stars (including the Sun), how stars evolve and interact with their environments, and the role of radio stars as probes of our Galaxy.

Good Morning #Canada
This morning, our old Mazda goes in for new brakes, front and back, and install the snow tires. While sipping my coffee, I was wondering about auto stats in Canada....
- Canada ranks 23rd worldwide in vehicles per 1,000 people. USA ranks 10th.
- COVID put and end to rising car ownership. In 2020 there were 473 vehicles for every 1,000 people. Today, it's estimated to be 408.
- 11% of Canadians own 3 or more vehicles, 2% own 5 or more.
- 9% own an electric vehicle or hybrid.
- 78% of Canadians say it would be impossible for them not to have a car.
- 41% wish they had better transportation options to avoid needing a car altogether.
- Compared to 2024, car ownership costs have increased 9 per cent, rising from $5,025 to $5,497 annually.

We also wrote a "Snapshot of Modern Mathematics", a short article about the so-called "4-sample-theorem" for Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Gaussian Graphical Models.
We submitted it to MFO in Spring 2024 but sadly they have not yet dealt with it. We never put out a preprint, thinking this would have been a very short process. But it is not.
So here is the preprint now, exclusively posted on the Fediverse:
