CMOS Implementation of Field Programmable Spiking Neural Network for Hardware Reservoir Computing
The increasing complexity and energy demands of large-scale neural networks, such as Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) and Large Language Models (LLMs), challenge their practical deployment in edge applications due to high power consumption, area requirements, and privacy concerns. Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), particularly in analog implementations, offer a promising low-power alternative but suffer from noise sensitivity and connectivity limitations. This work presents a novel CMOS-implemented fi…

Tatuzawa's theorem for Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions
Let $π$ and $π'$ be cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}(n)$ and $\mathrm{GL}(n')$ with unitary central characters. We establish a new zero-free region for all $\mathrm{GL}(1)$-twists of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π\timesπ')$, generalizing Tatuzawa's refinement of Siegel's work on Dirichlet $L$-functions. A crucial component of our proof is a new standard zero-free region for any twist of $L(s,π\times\widetildeπ)$ by an idele class character $χ$ apart from a pos…

Possible Evidence for the Presence of Volatiles on the Warm Super-Earth TOI-270 b
The search for atmospheres on rocky exoplanets is a crucial step in understanding the processes driving atmosphere formation, retention, and loss. Past studies have revealed the existence of planets interior to the radius valley with densities lower than would be expected for pure-rock compositions, indicative of the presence of large volatile inventories which could facilitate atmosphere retention. Here we present an analysis of the JWST NIRSpec/G395H transmission spectrum of the warm ($T_\mat…

Circular dichroism in the photoelectron angular distribution of achiral molecules
Circular dichroism in the angular distribution (CDAD) is the effect that the angular intensity distribution of photoemitted electrons depends on the handedness of the incident circularly polarized light. A CDAD may arise from intrinsic material properties like chirality, spin-orbit interaction, or quantum-geometrical effects on the electronic structure. In addition, CDAD has also been reported for achiral organic molecules at the interface to metallic substrates. For this latter case, we invest…

Chasing the two-Higgs-doublet model via electroweak corrections at $e^+e^-$ colliders
We present a comprehensive study of Higgs boson production associated with a neutrino pair at $e^+e^-$ colliders ($e^+ e^- \to h \, ν\barν$) at the next-to-leading-order accuracy in both the Standard Model and the two-Higgs-doublet model. We show that new physics effects from the extended Higgs sector can be probed through electroweak corrections, which lead to several percent deviations from the Standard Model predictions in total cross sections and differential distributions, even in the al…

Continued Rapid Radio Brightening of the Tidal Disruption Event AT2018hyz
We present ongoing radio observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2018hyz, which was first detected in the radio at 972 days after disruption, following multiple non-detections from earlier searches. The new observations presented here span approximately 1370-2160 days and 0.88-240 GHz. We find that the light curves continue to rise at all frequencies during this time period, following a power law of about F ~ t^3 (compared to F_nu ~ t^5.7 at 972-1400 days), and reaching a peak lumino…

Nonlinear Joint Spectral Radius
We introduce a nonlinear extension of the joint spectral radius (JSR) for switched discrete-time dynamical systems governed by sub-homogeneous and order-preserving maps acting on cones. We show that this nonlinear JSR characterizes both the asymptotic stability of the system and the divergence or convergence rate of trajectories originating from different points within the cone. Our analysis establishes upper and lower bounds on the nonlinear JSR of a sub-homogeneous family via the JSRs of two …

AT2019cmw: A highly luminous, cooling featureless TDE candidate from the disruption of a high mass star in an early-type galaxy
We present optical/UV photometric and spectroscopic observations, as well as X-ray and radio follow-up, of the extraordinary event AT2019cmw. With a peak bolometric luminosity of ~$\mathrm{10^{45.6}\,erg\,s^{-1}}$, it is one of the most luminous thermal transients ever discovered. Extensive spectroscopic follow-up post-peak showed only a featureless continuum throughout its evolution. This, combined with its nuclear location, blue colour at peak and lack of prior evidence of an AGN in its host …
