Trump Dismisses Another Inspector General,
Fueling Oversight Concerns
With the firing of Parisa Salehi,
the Export-Import Bank’s inspector general,
the president has sidelined around two dozen of the watchdogs who seek out fraud and mismanagement in federal agencies.
Even among Republicans on Capitol Hill, Ms. Salehi’s firing is prompting some backlash.
Senator Charles E. Grassley,
Republican of Iowa, raised concerns that the termination was illegal, …

The Flight of the Bumblebee in a Non-Commutative Geometry: A New Black Hole Solution
This paper investigates a new black hole solution within the framework of bumblebee gravity, incorporating non-commutative corrections parameterized by $Θ$ and implemented through the Moyal twist $\partial_r \wedge \partial_θ$. Notably, the event horizon remains unaffected by $Θ$, while the surface gravity becomes ill-defined, in agreement with the behavior previously reported for the non-commutative Schwarzschild black hole [1]. The propagation of light is examined by analyzing null geodesi…

Unveiling the Quantum Nature of Black Holes: Towards a Proof of Hawking Radiation through Gamma-Ray Observations
Hawking's groundbreaking prediction that black holes emit thermal radiation and ultimately evaporate remains unverified due to the extreme faintness of this radiation for stellar-mass or larger black holes. In this study, we explore a novel observational strategy to search for Hawking radiation from asteroid-mass black hole morsels -- hypothetical small black holes that may form and be ejected during catastrophic events such as binary black hole mergers. These black hole morsels are expected to…

Expect the unexpected: augmented mixture models for black hole population studies
Black hole population studies are currently performed either using astrophysically motivated models (informed but rigid in their functional forms) or via non-parametric methods (flexible but not directly interpretable). In this paper, we present a statistical framework to complement the predictive power of astrophysically motivated models with the flexibility of non-parametric methods. Our method makes use of the Dirichlet distribution to robustly infer the relative weights of different models …

Intrinsic Berry Curvature Driven Anomalous Hall and Nernst Effect in Co$_2$MnSn
Magnetic topological semimetals often exhibit unusual electronic and thermal transport due to nontrivial bulk band crossings, enabling simultaneous realization of large anomalous Hall and Nernst conductivities ($σ_{xy}$ and $α_{xy}$). Here, a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study of the anomalous transport properties of ferromagnetic Co$_2$MnSn is reported. First-principles calculations reveal topological Weyl points producing significant Berry curvature, driving dominant intrinsic…

A heat-resilient hole spin qubit in silicon
Recent advances in scaling up spin-based quantum processors have revealed unanticipated issues related to thermal effects. Microwave pulses required to manipulate and read the qubits are found to overheat the spins environment, which unexpectedly induces Larmor frequency shifts, reducing thereby gate fidelities. In this study, we shine light on these elusive thermal effects, by experimentally characterizing the temperature dependence of the Larmor frequency for a single hole spin in silicon. Ou…

Victoria Shynkar and her colleagues, who work for the demining charity the Halo Trust,
uncovered 243 TM-62 Soviet-designed anti-tank mines left by the Russian army in a neighbouring field.
A chunky and intimidating 32-centimetres in diameter and 13-cm-wide,
the TM-62 contains 7.5 kilos of TNT and can puncture a tank if triggered. 
The presence of landmines and other unexploded ordnance is a significant issue in Ukraine,
impacting civilians and Ukraine’s agricultu…

This story was produced in partnership with Agence France-Presse (AFP). In a field near the small town of Bezymenne in southern Ukraine, Viktoria Shynkar carefully picks out a narrow path through the overgrown grass in front of her.  This small corridor of farmland in Mykolaiv Oblast will be checked for the presence of landmines and […]
