Neues synthetisches Polymer ist leicht, sehr hart und tötet Viren ab
Ein neues Polymer hat ungewöhnliche Eigenschaften: Es ist sehr stabil, leicht, kann flexibel sein und Viren abtöten. Einfach herzustellen, ist es auch.

Morgen dus waarschijnlijk de hele dag een van de debatten die de meeste aandacht zal krijgen, maar inhoudelijk totaal niets waard hoogst waarschijnlijk.

Amazon's R&D lab forms new agentic AI group
The new group will help develop an agentic AI "framework" for use in its robotics operations, an application often referred to as "physical AI."

Palmer’s Bar in #Minneapolis will close in September #Minnesota
Many good memories of Palmer's
“there are dives and dives in this world. There’s the type Guy Fieri calls out, old joints that might not feel like they need to get their hair done before seeing company but are nonetheless f…

Anomalous free energy expansions of planar Coulomb gases: multi-component and conformal singularity
We study the partition function $$ Z_n = \int_{\mathbb{C}^n } \prod_{1 \le j-1$ and $$ V(z)= |z|^{2d}-t(z^{d}+\overline{z}^{d}), \qquad t >0, \, d \in \mathbb{N}. $$ The associated droplet reveals a topological phase transition: for $t > 1/\sqrt{d}$, it consists of $d$ connected components; whereas for $t < 1/\sqrt{d}$, it becomes simply connected and contains t…

The 80th edition of De Programmatica Ipsum is out!
This month, we deplore the sad state of the Windows operating system; in the Library section, we review “The Old New Thing” by Raymond Chen; and in our Vidéothèque section, we learn about how the Longhorn project derailed through Dave Plummer.

Assessing the lattice QCD space diffusion coefficient and the thermalization time of charm quark by mean of D meson observables at LHC

Assessing the lattice QCD space diffusion coefficient and the thermalization time of charm quark by mean of D meson observables at LHC
A central goal in the study of heavy-flavour production is to determine the interaction strength between Heavy Quarks (HQs) and the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), quantified by the spatial diffusion coefficient $D_s(T)$. Recent lattice QCD (lQCD) results with dynamical fermions suggest a remarkably low value of $2πT D_s \approx 1$ at $T=T_c$ for charm quarks - significantly lower than both quenched QCD estimates and most phenomenological models - which typically yield $2πT D_s \approx 3.5 - 5$. Th…

Going through boxes, drawers, etc. in my home office, in anticipation of redoing it (I need more bookshelves). In an old bankers box, I found my daily planners from high school, university, and all the way until I got my first Palm device in 1999…
In the planner for the 1986-87 academic year, I find an entry for Friday, September 26th, 1986: «(Freak Out!)» Unfortunately, past me did not feel a need to elaborate on that, and so I am left guessing…
That said, it was a busy school y…
