Spectroscopic study of $ss\bar{b}\bar{b}$ and $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ Tetraquarks using Regge phenomenology
In this work, we investigate the mass spectra of doubly strange-doubly bottom (ssbb) and fully bottom (bbbb) tetraquark states using the framework of Regge phenomenology. By modeling these tetraquarks as bound diquark-antidiquark systems, we employ quasi-linear Regge trajectories to study both orbital and radial excitations. Within this formalism, we derive linear and quadratic mass inequalities that impose constraints on the masses of ground and excited states of tetraquarks in the (J, M^2) pl…

Survival probability for jump processes in unbounded domains on metric measure spaces
We study the large time behavior of the survival probability $\mathbb{P}_x\left(τ_D>t\right)$ for symmetric jump processes in unbounded domains with a positive bottom of the spectrum. We prove asymptotic upper and lower bounds with explicit constants in terms of the bottom of the spectrum $λ(D)$. Our main result applies to symmetric jump processes in general metric measure spaces. For $α$-stable processes in unbounded uniformly $C^{1,1}$ domains, our results provide a probabilistic interpret…

A review on the equation of state of color superconductivity via holography
In this project, we will study a bottom$-$up holographic model for the color superconductivity (CSC) phase in the Einstein$-$Gauss$-$Bonnet (EGB) gravity. We consider the color superconductivity in the deconfinement phase which is dual to the planar GB$-$RN$-$AdS black hole in six-dimensional spacetime and we find the equation of state of the CSC phase in the inner core of the heavy compact star.

Now that we have had our brief bit of fun with the #poolpond, it’s time to drain it so work on completing it can continue! It took just over 12 hours for my little spare pond pump to empty the main pond of about 80% of its water.
It will be empty by morning. I will empty the filter and intake bay as well just to clean everything out. The movement of the past couple weeks through the system will have loosened up a bunch of the gunk still on the various rocks in the filter so a full pump out should remove all that.
I will then concentrate on finishing the piping in the bottom of the main pond for the intake for the second pond and the “periscope” for the bottom returns.
Then I can work on building the rock wall to line the inside of the pond. Or at least experimenting to see if it will work at all!
If it *does* work and I have enough rock to at least start on the bottom layers of the inside wall, then I’ll be able to achieve another milestone: placing the final pebble on the bottom. Important, because that will prevent any groundwater from infiltrating and causing the rubber liner to bubble out.
Really really want to get past that mark before the autumn rains come! For obvious reasons! ☔️
Other jobs that need to be done before winter:
- finish the manifold for the second pump to distribute water to the sprayers and filter and figure out how and where to house and conceal it.
- Dig the electrical trench from the house all the way around the long side of the pond to the back tool shed so we can start wiring it in.
- Clipping the wires on the pumps and adding extension wire to them so they can reach said electrical supplies.
- permanently shore up/modify the borders of the ponds where they were found to be low.
- make a few other minor terraforming modifications for the stream and some of the edges so the water goes a little more where I want it to and a little less where I don’t.

Within this framework, the calculated masses for established $B$ and $B_s$ meson states show excellent agreement with experimental data. Leveraging these reliable predictions for low-lying states, we propose spectroscopic assignments for several higher excitations: we identify …

The other kind of crane always flies away when I show up but this one is working in Collegetown building a new building called 'The Ivy' at the intersection of College and Dryden

I had to do a little more plumbing to at least get things up to a poijt where I could anchor the pipe in the bottom and put pebble down over the whole bottom hopefully tomorrow.
I need two more 45° elbows to keep the pipe close to the side as it comes up but that's not critical. At least like this if I have to fill it with water nothing will be too hard to fix.

View from creek level at Monkey Run: there's a research farm on top of the bluff on the far side. (That little blotch in the upper center is a Monarch butterfly!)

Zinnias are another favorite of mine that I'm stocking up on, the best thing about these is they come in such a wide range of colors and gradients of color
