Somebody complained the CSV loader in ngscopeclient was too slow https://github.com/ngscopeclient/scopehal/issues/989
In the original discussion (linked from this ticket) they wanted to multithread it. Which is still potentially on the table for the future, but I d…

Systematic errors in fast relativistic waveforms for Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals
Accurate modeling of Extreme Mass-Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs) is essential for extracting reliable information from future space-based gravitational wave observatories. Fast waveform generation frameworks adopt an offline/online architecture, where expensive relativistic computations (e.g. self-force and black hole perturbation theory) are performed offline, and waveforms are generated rapidly online via interpolation across a multidimensional parameter space. In this work, we investigate potential…

Can I get a Fedora user to test something on ngscopeclient for me?
Download the latest RPM from GitHub Actions CI (specifically the CI package, not one you've compiled yourself and install it.
Does it report a plausible version number
1) in the package itself
2) in the title bar
3) in the about dialog?
Just fixed a bug causing empty strings to appear instead of version numbers in the Debian CI builds and I'm not sure if Fedora was impacted too. It use…

Cation accumulation drives the preferential partitioning of DNA in an aqueous two-phase system
Mixtures of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and dextran (Dex) represent a widely used class of aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS), with applications ranging from the purification of various biomolecules such as nucleic acids to the synthesis of protocells. A key feature underlying these applications is the selective accumulation of biomolecules within Dex-rich droplets in an aqueous PEG phase, but the physical origin of this partitioning remains unclear. Depletion interactions were long assumed to be t…

Controlled spin-to-charge conversion in noncollinear antiferromagnet-based Py/Mn$_{3}$Pt heterostructure
Noncollinear antiferromagnets (NCAFs) have recently emerged as promising candidates for future spintronic technologies, offering ultrafast switching, negligible stray fields allowing dense packing, and robustness against external magnetic perturbations. When interfaced with ferromagnets (FMs), they can strongly influence interfacial exchange and spin-torque mechanisms that enable manipulating magnetic order and realizing functionalities beyond conventional heavy metals (HMs) based FM/HM heteros…
