Simulating Unruh Radiation in High-Intensity Laser-Electron Interactions for Near-Term Experimental Tests
The Unruh effect predicts that a uniformly accelerating observer perceives the vacuum as a thermal bath, yet direct observation remains elusive [1]. We simulate Unruh radiation in realistic high-intensity laser-electron collisions relevant to FACET-II and LUXE using fully three-dimensional Monte Carlo methods. In our model, Unruh emission is treated as scattering from a rest-frame thermal spectrum with Klein-Nishina cross sections, while nonlinear Compton radiation is computed across many harmo…

Embedding Sustainability in Software Engineering Curriculum: A Case Study
Sustainability is increasingly recognized as a critical dimension of engineering education, yet its integration into Software Engineering curricula remains a challenge. This paper reports on a case study that examines how sustainability is being embedded across modules in the Software Engineering program at one university. The paper outlines the process through which academics and students co-identified opportunities for integration, guided by the five dimensions of the Sustainability Awareness…

Role of universal function of the nuclear proximity potential: A systematic study on the alpha-decay of heavy/super-heavy nuclei and α-induced reactions
The idea of the universal function is fundamental advantage of proximity potential model. We present a systematic study of the role of universal function of the proximity potential model on alpha decay process for 250 ground state to ground state transitions using WKB approximation. In order to realize this goal, five universal functions proposed in the proximity models gp 77, Guo 2013, Ngo 80, Zhang 2013 and Prox. 2010 have been incorporated into the formalism of Prox. 77. The obtained results…

Prototype Development and Calibration of the CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP)
The space-based CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) mission aims to measure the linear polarization of solar flares in the hard X-ray band by means of a Compton scattering polarimeter. CUSP will allow to study the magnetic reconnection and particle acceleration in the flaring magnetic structures of our star with its unprecedented sensitivity to solar flare polarization. CUSP is a project in the framework of the Alcor Program of the Italian Space Agency aimed to develop new CubeSat missions. It has…

Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs,
the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it.
Nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food
—enough to feed about 1.5 million children for a week
—are set to expire tomorrow, according to current and former government employees with direct knowledge of the rations.
Within weeks, two of those sources told me, the food, meant for c…

Regularity of Resolutions and Limits of Manifolds with a Uniform Contractibility Function
In this paper, we give a short and self-contained proof to a 1991 conjecture by Moore concerning the structure of certain finite-dimensional Gromov--Hausdorff limits, in the ANR setting. As a consequence, one easily characterizes finite dimensional limits of PL-able or Riemannian $n$-manifolds with a uniform contractibility function. For example, one can define for any compact connected metric space that is a resolvable ANR homology manifold of covering dimension at least 5, an obstruction, whi…
