The precision measurement of the electron anti-neutrino spectrum in beta-decay of $\rm{^{144}Pr}$ nuclei
The $\rm{^{144}Ce - ^{144}Pr}$ electron antineutrino source is one of the most suitable radiochemical sources for experiments searching for the oscillations of active neutrinos to the light sterile state. In the current work the $β$-spectra of $\rm{^{144}Ce - ^{144}Pr}$ source have been measured by two types of $β$-spectrometers based on silicon Si(Li) detectors in order to determine the energy spectrum of electron anti-neutrino emitted in the $β$-decay of $\rm{^{144}Pr}$ nuclei. The nuclear…

Light Manipulation via Tunable Collective Quantum States in Waveguide-Coupled Bragg and Anti-Bragg Superatoms
A many-body quantum system which consists of collective quantum states, such as superradiant and subradiant states, behaves as a multi-level superatom in light-matter interaction. In this work, we experimentally study one-dimensional superatoms in waveguide quantum electrodynamics with a periodic array of superconducting artificial atoms. We engineer the periodic atomic array with two distinct nearest-neighbor spacings, i.e., $d$=$λ_0/2$ and $d$=$λ_0/4$, which correspond to Bragg and anti-Bra…

The anti-glitching gamma-ray pulsar PSR J1522-5735
Context. A small number of pulsar glitches have been identified as anti-glitches or spin-down glitches, where the overall contribution to the pulsar's rotation frequency is negative. A notable example of a spin-down glitch was observed in PSR 1522-5735, a radio-quiet gamma-ray pulsar discovered by blind searches in the 3-year data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). Aims. This work aims to search for PSR 1522-5735's glitches using Fermi-LAT data from over 15 years of observations. Method…

Anti-aliasing Algorithm Based on Three-dimensional Display Image
3D-display technology has been a promising emerging area with potential to be the core of next-generation display technology. When directly observing unprocessed images and text through a naked-eye 3D display device, severe distortion and jaggedness will be displayed, which will make the display effect much worse. In this work, we try to settle down such degradation with spatial and frequency processing, furthermore, we make efforts to extract degenerate function of columnar lens array thus fun…

An \textsf{AT1} phase-field framework for quasi-static anti-plane shear fracture: Unifying $ξ$-based adaptivity and nonlinear strain energy density function
This work introduces a novel \textsf{AT1} phase-field framework for simulating quasi-static anti-plane shear fracture in geometrically linear elastic bodies. A key feature of this framework is the unification of $ξ$-based local mesh adaptivity -- where $ξ$ represents the characteristic length of the damage zone -- and an algebraically nonlinear strain energy density function. A modified Francfort-Marigo energy functional, together with its Ambrosio-Tortorelli-type regularization, is hereby pr…

Constructions of Optimal Frequency-Hopping Sequences with Controlled Minimum Gaps
Frequency-hopping sequences (FHSs) with low Hamming correlation and wide gaps significantly contribute to the anti-interference performance in FH communication systems. This paper investigates FHSs with optimal Hamming correlation and controlled minimum gaps. We start with the discussion of the upper bounds on the minimum gaps of uniform FHSs and then propose a general construction of optimal uniform wide-gap FHSs with length 2l and 3l, which includes the work by Li et al. in IEEE Trans. Inf. T…

Anti-Phishing Training Does Not Work: A Large-Scale Empirical Assessment of Multi-Modal Training Grounded in the NIST Phish Scale
Social engineering attacks using email, commonly known as phishing, are a critical cybersecurity threat. Phishing attacks often lead to operational incidents and data breaches. As a result, many organizations allocate a substantial portion of their cybersecurity budgets to phishing awareness training, driven in part by compliance requirements. However, the effectiveness of this training remains in dispute. Empirical evidence of training (in)effectiveness is essential for evidence-based cybersec…

Gravitational redshift from large-scale structure: nonlinearities, anti-symmetries, and the dipole

Gravitational redshift from large-scale structure: nonlinearities, anti-symmetries, and the dipole
Gravitational redshift imprints a slight asymmetry in the observed clustering of galaxies, producing odd multipoles (e.g.\ the dipole) in the cross-correlation function. But there are other sources of asymmetry which must also be considered in any model which aims to measure gravitational redshift from large-scale structure. In this work we develop a nonlinear model of the redshift-space correlation function complete down to these subleading, asymmetric effects. In addition to gravitational red…

Anti-recurrence sequences
We extend previous work on anti-recurrence sequences of Kimberling and Moses, Zaslavsky, and Bosma et al. Kimberling and Moses have formulated several questions on these sequences, which can be combined into the meta-conjecture that anti-recurrence sequences are sums of linear progressions and automatic sequences. We solve this conjecture under a restriction on the linear form that generates the anti-recurrence.

Really weird, so DHL Canada said that starting June 20th they could no longer operate because of the new anti-scabs law.
I'm seeing a package of mine moving on June 23rd within Ontario. (Was sent to me before the strike)
Looking at DHL reddit, tons of people are receiving packages through 3rd party companies.
So what's the deal? How does that work?

Krugman continues:
❝While there is a cadre of Trumpist true believers who will obey the Leader under any circumstances, most of those doing the dirty work of undermining democracy and the rule of law are cowards and opportunists. They’re willing to participate in the destruction of America as we know it because they believe that many others will do the same. As a result, they believe that they are unlikely to face any personal consequences for their actions and may even be rewarded for their lawbreaking.
And what of those who oppose Trumpism? While there are heroes willing to take a stand against tyranny whatever the personal cost, most anti-Trumpists are reluctant to stick their necks out unless they believe that they are part of a widespread resistance that will grant them some measure of safety in numbers.
In other words, the victory or defeat of competitive authoritarianism will depend to a large extent on which side ordinary people believe will win. If Trump looks unstoppable, resistance will wither away and democracy will be lost. On the other hand, if he appears weak and stymied, resistance will grow and — just maybe — American democracy will survive.❞

Leveraging Network Methods for Hub-like Microservice Detection
Context: Microservice Architecture is a popular architectural paradigm that facilitates flexibility by decomposing applications into small, independently deployable services. Catalogs of architectural anti-patterns have been proposed to highlight the negative aspects of flawed microservice design. In particular, the Hub-like anti-pattern lacks an unambiguous definition and detection method. Aim: In this work, we aim to find a robust detection approach for the Hub-like microservice anti-pattern …

Amplifying Artifacts with Speech Enhancement in Voice Anti-spoofing
Spoofed utterances always contain artifacts introduced by generative models. While several countermeasures have been proposed to detect spoofed utterances, most primarily focus on architectural improvements. In this work, we investigate how artifacts remain hidden in spoofed speech and how to enhance their presence. We propose a model-agnostic pipeline that amplifies artifacts using speech enhancement and various types of noise. Our approach consists of three key steps: noise addition, noise ex…

Radon Transforms and the SYK model
Motivated by recent work on the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, we consider the effect of Radon or X-ray transformations, on the Laplace eigenfunctions in hyperbolic Bolyai-Lobachevsky space. We show that the Radon map from this space to Lorentzian-signature Anti-de Sitter or de Sitter space is easier to interpret if we use the Poincare disc model and eigenfunctions rather than the upper-half-plane model. In particular, this version of the transform reveals the geometric origin of the boundary c…

$Z_{cs}^+$ production in the $B^+$ decays process
In the present work, we studied the $Z_{cs}^+$ exotic state production in the $B^+$ meson decays through the meson loop mechanism, where the $B^+$ meson decays into an anti-charmed meson and a charmed-strange meson pair, and consequently couples to $Z_{cs}$ and a light meson ($ϕ,ρ^0,ω,η,η^\prime$, and $π^0$) via exchanging a proper charmed or charmed-strange meson. Using the effective Lagrangian approach, we estimated the branching fractions of different channels find them to be on the or…

Resonances in Lifetimes of AdS Oscillon
Oscillons are classical oscillatory solutions with very long but finite lifetimes in real scalar field theories with appropriate potentials. An interesting feature is that resonances appear in the lifetimes of the oscillon for the initial size of the oscillon core $R_0$, which was discovered by Honda and Choptuik in the case of Minkowski space. In a previous work, oscillons in the global anti-de Sitter (AdS) space have been constructed, which we abbreviate as AdS oscillons. We present new reson…

Trade Unionists Against the Benefit Cuts (UKPol)
Good letter, including both the principle of the thing and the likely outcomes in practice. Starmer & co should take note.
"We the undersigned are trade unionists opposed to the Universal Credit and Personal Independence bill, designed to restrict access to PIP and to reduce the sickness element (LCWRA) of UC. We believe this is shameful anti-worker and anti-working class legislation. ...
"Not only will these cuts cause increased financial hardship for some of those made vulnerable by a disabling society, but will also add considerable expenses and a much increased workload to workers in several sectors. This is because more people will be plunged into debt. More people will be served with eviction notices... Cutting incomes will push people further from work...
"The Disability Policy thinktank forecast that the cuts will lead to £1.2bn in extra costs for the NHS and local care services provided by councils, raising the alarm for both councillors and MPs whether the cuts will backfire even on their own economic terms."
