Machine Learning-Guided Discovery of Temperature-Induced Solid-Solid Phase Transitions in Inorganic Materials
Predicting solid-solid phase transitions remains a long-standing challenge in materials science. Solid-solid transformations underpin a wide range of functional properties critical to energy conversion, information storage, and thermal management technologies. However, their prediction is computationally intensive due to the need to account for finite-temperature effects. Here, we present an uncertainty-aware machine-learning-guided framework for high-throughput prediction of temperature-induce…

Equation of State and First Principles Prediction of the Vibrational Matrix Shift of Solid Parahydrogen
We generate the equation of state (EOS) of solid parahydrogen using a path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulation based on a highly accurate first-principles adiabatic hindered rotor (AHR) potential energy curve for the \para dimer. The EOS curves for the fcc and hcp structures of solid parahydrogen near the equilibrium density show that the hcp structure is the more stable of the two, in agreement with experiment. To accurately reproduce the structural and energy properties of solid parahydrog…

Had a great time at Good Vibrations Society this weekend.
First act I saw was the most entrancing. Rozsa stroking a harp and singing angelically with a backing track. She was great.
The North London Gospel Choir doing Graceland was pretty cool. They got some mad energy, all those gospel synced dance moves. Lovely to hear that album in a new way.
Enjoyed the Gentlemen Dub Club and Riot Jazz and So Solid Crew. Watched a nice sunset at camp.
Lovely small site, great crowd. Hung with some friends and met old ones I hadn't seen for years.
Also tripped over a guy rope in the dark on the first night and hurt my wrist pretty bad.
Walked away after a moment on the floor assessing damage but visited the medical tent. My wrist swelled up so much the next day I had to have my wristband replaced. Drive home somewhat more perilous as a result. Thank goodness for automatic gear boxes.

Binding energies of small interstellar molecules on neutral and charged amorphous solid water surfaces
The interstellar medium (ISM) is all but empty. To date, more than 300 molecules have already been discovered. Because of the extremely low temperature, the gas-phase chemistry is dominated by barrierless exothermic reactions of radicals and ions. However, several abundant molecules and organic molecules cannot be produced efficiently by gas-phase reactions. To explain the existence of such molecules in the ISM, gas-surface interactions between small molecules and dust particles covered with am…

On the hierarchy of plate models for a singularly perturbed multi-well nonlinear elastic energy
In the celebrated work of Friesecke, James and Müller '06 the authors derive a hierarchy of models for plates by carefully analyzing the $Γ$-convergence of the rescaled nonlinear elastic energy. The key ingredient of their proofs is the rigidity estimate proved in an earlier work of theirs. Here we consider the case in which the elastic energy has a multi-well structure: this type of functional arises, for example, in the study of solid-solid phase transitions. Since the rigidity estimate fai…

Multiphoton entangled states are a key resource for quantum networks and measurement-based quantum computation. Scalable protocols for generating such states using solid-state spin-photon interfaces have recently emerged, but practical implementations have so far relied on emitters operating at short wavelengths, incompatible with low-loss fibre transmission. Here, we take a key step towards the generation of telecom wavelength multi-qubit entangled states using an InAs/InP quantum dot. After e…

In this study, we investigate the feasibility of spatially discretized MFCs in guiding and concentrating magnetic flux, through finite element simulations. Our results demonstrate that discretely structured MFCs can achieve performance comparable to that of solid counterparts while significantly reducing mate…

Solid bricks that every $b$-invariant edge is solitary
A graph $G$ is a brick if it is 3-connected and $G-\{u,v\}$ has a perfect matching for any two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$. A brick $G$ is solid if for any two vertex disjoint odd cycles $C_1$ and $C_2$ of $G$, $G-(V(C_1)\cup V(C_2))$ has no perfect matching. Lucchesi and Murty proposed a problem concerning the characterization of bricks, distinct from $K_4$, $\overline{C_6}$ and the Petersen graph, in which every $b$-invariant edge is solitary.

Local well-posedness of the equations governing the motion of a fluid-filled elastic solid
We consider the fluid-structure interaction problem of a viscous incompressible fluid contained in an elastic solid whose motion is not prescribed. The equations governing the motion of the solid are given by the Navier equations of linear elasticity, whereas the fluid motion is described by the Navier-Stokes equations. We prove that the governing equations admit a unique strong solution corresponding to non-zero initial data for the solid initial displacement and velocity, and for a fluid init…

Well-posedness for a two-phase Stefan problem with radiation
In this paper we consider a free boundary problem for the melting of ice where we assume that the heat is transported by conduction in both the liquid and the solid part of the material and also by radiation in the solid. Specifically, we study a one-dimensional two-phase Stefan-like problem which contains a non-local integral operator in the equation describing the temperature distribution of the solid. We will prove the local well-posedness of this free boundary problem combining the Banach f…

SOLIDGEO: Measuring Multimodal Spatial Math Reasoning in Solid Geometry
Geometry is a fundamental branch of mathematics and plays a crucial role in evaluating the reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs). However, existing multimodal mathematics benchmarks mainly focus on plane geometry and largely ignore solid geometry, which requires spatial reasoning and is more challenging than plane geometry. To address this critical gap, we introduce SolidGeo, the first large-scale benchmark specifically designed to evaluate the performance of MLLMs …

Electron charge coherence on a solid neon surface
Recent experiments show ~0.1 ms coherence time for a single electron charge qubit on a solid neon surface. This remarkably long coherence time is believed to result from the intrinsic purity of solid neon as a qubit host. In this paper, we present theoretical studies on the decoherence mechanisms of an electron's charge (lateral motional) states on solid neon. At the typical experimental temperature of ~10 mK, the two main decoherence mechanisms are the phonon-induced displacement of the neon s…

Fully stabilized Er fiber comb at 1 GHz by harmonic modelocking
Modelocked frequency comb lasers have always operated with a single pulse circulating in the laser cavity. This meant that each laser technology had an associated limit on pulse repetition rate. Achieving higher rates required different technology, for example exchanging optical fiber for solid state gain media. However, this is a perceived, rather than a fundamental limit. We demonstrate a new fiber laser design with multiple pulses circulating in the fiber gain cavity with the same high preci…

Homotopy continuation method for solving Dyson equation fully self-consistently: theory and application to NdNiO2
Solution of the Dyson equation for the small-gap systems can be plagued by large non-converging iterations. In addition to the convergence issues, due to a high non-linearity, the Dyson equation may have multiple solutions. We apply the homotopy continuation approach to control the behavior of iterations. We used the homotopy continuation to locate multiple fully self-consistent GW solutions for NdNiO2 solid and to establish the corresponding Hartree-Fock limits. Some of the solutions found are…

Restricted (2+1)-TQFTs supported by thickened and solid tori
A faithful $(1+1)$ TQFT has recently been constructed, but the existence of a faithful $(2+1)$ TQFT remains an open question, that subsumes the hard problem of linearity of mapping class groups of surfaces. To circumvent the latter problem we construct a subcategory of the category of 3-cobordisms, containing disjoint unions of tori and simplest cobordisms between them. On this we define TQFTs that are able to distinguish pairs of torus bundles and lens spaces, previously shown not to be distin…

Attenuation mechanism of wall-bounded turbulence by heavy finite-size particles
To elucidate the attenuation mechanism of wall-bounded turbulence due to heavy small particles, we conduct direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flow laden with finite-size solid particles. When particles cannot follow the swirling motions of wall-attached vortices, vortex rings are created around the particles. These particle-induced vortices lead to additional energy dissipation, reducing the turbulent energy production from the mean flow. This mechanism results in the atten…

Rigidity of Epithelial Tissues as a Double Optimization Problem
How do cells tune emergent properties at the scale of tissues? One class of such emergent behaviors are rigidity transitions, in which a tissue changes from a solid-like to a fluid-like state or vice versa. Here, we introduce a new way for a tissue described by a vertex model to tune its rigidity, by using ``tunable degrees of freedom." We use the vertex model elastic energy as a cost function and the cell stiffnesses, target shapes, and target areas as different sets of degrees of freedom desc…

Giant planet formation via pebble accretion across different stellar masses
The occurrence rate of cold Jupiters was found to depend on stellar mass. The formation environment in the protoplanetary disks regulates core formation and the subsequent gas accretion. In this study, we simulate giant planet formation via pebble accretion accounting for various stellar masses, core formation times, disk turbulent viscosities, and grain opacities. We use a self-consistent formation model that calculates the solid accretion rate and gas accretion rate of growing protoplanets. W…

OLi3-decorated Irida-graphene for High-capacity Hydrogen Storage: A First-principles Study
Efficient hydrogen storage in solid-state materials is essential for next-generation energy systems, yet achieving a high gravimetric capacity with optimal adsorption characteristics remains a critical challenge. Although Li-decorated irida-graphene (IG) has shown promising hydrogen storage potential, its capacity is limited to $\sim$ 7wt\%, which, despite exceeding the U.S. DOE target, remains inadequate for large-scale applications. Additionally, Li clustering over extended cycles may comprom…

Spatiotemporal hierarchy of thermal avalanches
In amorphous solids, frustrated elastic interactions conspire with thermal noise to trigger anomalously slow sequences of plastic rearrangements, termed "thermal avalanches", which play an important role during creep and glassy relaxations. Here we uncover the complex spatiotemporal structure of thermal avalanches in simulations of a model amorphous solid. We systematically disentangle mechanical and thermal triggering during logarithmic creep, revealing a hierarchy of fast localized cascades l…

Coherent six-functor formalisms: Pro vs Solid
In the classical theory for coherent sheaves, the only missing piece in the Grothendieck six-functor formalism picture is $j_!$ for an open immersion $j$. Towards fixing this gap,classically Deligne proposed a construction of $j_!$ by extending the sheaf class to pro sheaves, while Clausen-Scholze provided another solution by extending the sheaf class to solid modules. In this work, we prove that Deligne's construction coincides with the Clausen-Scholze construction via a natural functor, whose…

We propose that in systems embedded within optical cavities driven by incident pump light, the pump induces generic phase transitions into new non-equilibrium steady states. This effect arises from the ponderomotive potential, the effective static potential exerted by the pump on the low energy degrees of freedom, which exhibits a universal step-like structure that pushes the matter degree…
