Impact of Fine-Tuning Methods on Memorization in Large Language Models
As the capabilities of pre-trained large language models (LLMs) continue to advance, the "pre-train and fine-tune" paradigm has become increasingly mainstream, leading to the development of various fine-tuning methods. However, the privacy risks arising from memorization during fine-tuning have received relatively little attention. To address this gap, we categorize popular fine-tuning approaches and assess their impact on memorization through the lens of membership inference attacks (MIAs). Ou…

The Influence of HEXACO Personality Traits on the Teamwork Quality in Software Teams -- A Preliminary Research Approach
Although software engineering research has focused on optimizing processes and technology, there is a growing recognition that human factors, particularly teamwork, also significantly impact optimization. Recent research suggests that developer personality has a strong influence on teamwork. In fact, personality considerations may have a greater impact on software development than processes and tools. This paper aims to design a study that measures the impact of HEXACO personality traits on the…

Probing the Moon from Future Asteroid Impacts: A Review
The Earth--Moon system has been experiencing impacts from asteroids and comets for billions of years. The Moon, as an airless body, has preserved a distinct record of these events in form of impact craters and ejecta deposits, offering valuable insights into the impact history and surface evolution of the Moon. However, the ancient impact relics can only provide limited information to the lunar interior structure, with an absence of the Moon's immediately dynamic response to the impact events. …

Impact of Passive Element Technological Limits on CMOS Low-Noise Amplifier Design
This paper investigates the impact of technological constraints on passive elements in the design of inductively degenerated CMOS low-noise amplifiers (LNAs). A theoretical analysis is combined with circuit simulations in a 130-nm CMOS process at 2.45~GHz to explore how the available inductance and capacitance values limit key design objectives such as maximum gain, minimum power consumption, and transistor sizing. Results show that these limits significantly restrict the achievable design spac…

The Impact of Sequential versus Parallel Clearing Mechanisms in Agent-Based Simulations of Artificial Limit Order Book Exchanges
This study examines the impact of different computing implementations of clearing mechanisms on multi-asset price dynamics within an artificial stock market framework. We show that sequential processing of order books introduces a systematic and significant bias by affecting the allocation of traders' capital within a single time step. This occurs because applying budget constraints sequentially grants assets processed earlier preferential access to funds, distorting individual asset demand and…

Revisiting Noise-adaptive Transpilation in Quantum Computing: How Much Impact Does it Have?
Transpilation, particularly noise-aware optimization, is widely regarded as essential for maximizing the performance of quantum circuits on superconducting quantum computers. The common wisdom is that each circuit should be transpiled using up-to-date noise calibration data to optimize fidelity. In this work, we revisit the necessity of frequent noise-adaptive transpilation, conducting an in-depth empirical study across five IBM 127-qubit quantum computers and 16 diverse quantum algorithms.

The Impact of Baryonic Effects on the Dynamical Masses Inferred Using Satellite Kinematics
Satellite kinematics offers a powerful method to infer dynamical halo masses and has been demonstrated to yield tight constraints on the galaxy-halo connection. However, previous studies have assumed that the halos in which the satellites orbit are composed solely of dark matter, neglecting the role of baryons. Here, we develop an analytical model incorporating stars, gas, and the adiabatic response of dark matter to assess the impact of baryonic effects on the inference from satellite kinemati…

The impact of differential rotation on the stochastic excitation of acoustic modes in solar-like pulsators
Acoustic modes are excited by turbulent convection in the outer convective envelope of solar-like stars. Observational results from asteroseismic studies show that 44% of solar-like stars do not present detectable stochastically-excited acoustic modes. This phenomenon appears to be related to their rotation rate and magnetic activity. In a first paper, we showed that uniform rotation tends to diminish the mode amplitudes significantly. However, convective envelopes in solar-type stars are diffe…

Impact of a complex scalar spectator field on baryon asymmetry within spontaneous baryogenesis
We extend the framework of spontaneous baryogenesis by investigating the generation of baryon asymmetry when the inflaton, $θ$, is minimally coupled with a complex spectator scalar field $ϕ$, as $θ^2|ϕ|^2$. To do so, we also consider $ϕ$ non-minimally coupled with the Ricci scalar curvature $R$ through a Yukawa-like interaction. We do not consider further interactions of the spectator field with the fermions of the Standard Model, considering it \emph{de facto} as a dark scalar f…

Since this overlap is more likely to occur in regions of high foreground density -- which tend to be the regions in which the shear is la…

Quantifying the impact of the Tamm-Dancoff approximation on the computed spectra of transition-metal systems
The Tamm-Dancoff Approximation (TDA) offers a computationally efficient alternative to full linear-response Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) for calculating electronic excited states, particularly in large molecular systems. By neglecting the coupling between excitation and de-excitation channels, TDA simplifies the TDDFT response equations into a Hermitian form. This not only reduces computational cost but also eliminates numerical instabilities that can arise in the full non-H…

#ScribesAndMakers for July 3: When (and if) you procrastinate, what do you do? If you don't, what do you do to avoid it?
I'll swap right out of programming to read a book, play a video game, or watch some anime. Often got things open in other windows so it's as simple as alt-tab.
I've noticed recently I tend to do this more often when I have a hard problem to solve that I'm not 100% sure about. I definitely have cycles of better & worse motivation and I've gotten to a place where I'm pretty relaxed about it instead of feeling guilty. I work how I work, and that includes cycles of rest, and that's enough (at least, for me it has been so far, and I'm in a comfortable career, married with 2 kids).
Some projects ultimately lose steam and get abandoned, and I've learned to accept that too. I learn a lot and grow from each project, so nothing is a true waste of time, and there remains plenty of future ahead of me to achieve cool things.
The procrastination does sometimes impact my wife & kids, and that's something I do sometimes feel bad about, but I think I keep that in check well enough, and for things my wife worries about, I usually don't procrastinate those too much (used to be worse about this).
Right now I'm procrastinating a big work project by working on a hobby project instead. The work project probably won't get done by the start of the semester as a result. But as I remind myself, my work doesn't actually pay me to work during the summer, and things will be okay without the work project being finished until later.
When I want to force myself into a more productive cycle, talking to people about project details sometimes helps, as does finding some new tech I can learn about by shoehorning it into a project. Have been thinking about talking to a rubber duck, but haven't motivated myself to try that yet, and I'm not really in doldrums right now.

I'm currently experimenting with something called micro journalism.
I started about a week ago and so far it is going well.
It's basically just a long text file on my phone and whenever I pick up the phone to distract myself I open that file instead and write something in it.
It is too early to tell if it has an impact but at least it gets me writing a bit.
The downside is that you will see less posts from me, but that might be as well a good thing ;).

Laser-drive droplet deformation at low Weber numbers
We investigate droplet deformation following laser-pulse impact at low Weber numbers (We ~ 0.1-100). Droplet dynamics can be characterized by two key parameters: the impact We number and the width, W, of the distribution of the impact force over the droplet surface. By varying laser pulse energy, our experiments traverse a phase space comprising (I) droplet oscillation, (II) breakup, or (III) sheet formation. Numerical simulations complement the experiments by determining the pressure width and…

Scatter in the star formation rate-halo mass relation: secondary bias and its impact on line-intensity mapping
We use the IllustrisTNG cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to study the impact of secondary bias -- specifically, the correlation between star formation rate (SFR) and halo bias at fixed halo mass -- on the line-intensity mapping (LIM) power spectrum. In LIM, the galaxy contributions are flux-weighted, and for many emission lines (e.g., H$α$), flux scales with SFR. We show that the (ensemble-averaged) large-scale two-halo term of the power spectrum depends only on the mean luminosity-halo…

Impact of convective overshooting on the single-degenerate model of Type Ia supernovae
The single-degenerate (SD) model is one of the principal models for the progenitors of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). However, it faces some challenges, the primary being its inability to account for the observed SN Ia birth rate. Many studies have attempted to address this issue by expanding the parameter space, defined by the initial donor star mass and orbital period, that can lead to SNe Ia, as well as by improving binary population synthesis. While these efforts have led to significant progr…

The impact of the following vehicles behaviors on the car following behaviors of the ego-vehicle
Among all types of crashes, rear-end crashes dominate, which are closely related to the car-following (CF) behaviors. Traditional CF behavior models focused on the influence of the vehicle in front, but usually ignored the peer pressure from the surrounding road users, including the following vehicle (FV). Based on an open dataset, the highD dataset, we investigated whether the FV's states can affect the CF behavior of the ego-vehicle in CF events. Two types of CF events were extracted from hig…

Reconstructing Transition GPDs for Delta(1232) from Helicity Amplitude A_1/2(Q^2) via Dipole Fits and Impact Parameter Analysis
We present a modular reconstruction of the transition generalized parton distribution (GPD) H_T(x,t) for the Delta(1232) resonance, based on digitized helicity amplitude data and dipole fits to A_1/2(Q^2). From the fitted amplitude, we extract a Sachs-like form factor F(t) and define a separable GPD model H_T(x, t) = h(x)F(t), with h(x) modeled as a normalized Beta-like profile. This factorized ansatz satisfies the GPD sum rule and enables a direct two-dimensional Fourier transform to construct…

Asteroids fail to retain cometary impact signatures
A bombardment of comets is thought to have occurred in the inner solar system as a result of a dynamical instability among the giant planets after gas disk dispersal. Vesta, the second largest asteroid in the main asteroid belt, likely differentiated before gas disk dispersal, implying its crust witnessed the cometary bombardment. The composition of HED meteorites, which represent fragments of Vesta's crust, could therefore have been altered by cometary impacts. Here we combine noble gas mass s…

Impact of super-Gaussian electron distributions on plasma K-shell emission
Electron distributions in laser-produced plasmas will be driven toward a super-Gaussian distribution due to inverse bremsstrahlung absorption [Langdon, Phys. Rev. Lett. 44, 575 (1980)]. Both theoretical and experimental evidence suggest that fundamental plasma properties are altered by the super-Gaussian distribution. This paper examines how the super-Gaussian distribution affects the ionization balance and K-shell emission of atomic plasmas, utilizing approximate formulas and detailed collisio…

Impact of a granular mass distribution on the orbit of S2 in the Galactic center
The orbit of the S2 star around Sagittarius A* provides a unique opportunity to test general relativity and study dynamical processes near a supermassive black hole. Observations have shown that the orbit of S2 is consistent with a Schwarzschild orbit at a 10$σ$ confidence level, constraining the amount of extended mass within its orbit to less than 1200 M$_\odot$, under the assumption of a smooth, spherically symmetric mass distribution. In this work we investigate the effects on the S2 orbit…

Exploring Impact Vapor Plume Reactions from Asteroidal Impacts: Monte Carlo Simulations and Implications for Biomolecules Synthesis
During a hypervelocity impact, both the impactor and target materials evaporate, generating an impact vapor plume with temperatures reaching several thousand K. As the plume cools through adiabatic expansion, chemical reactions are predicted to quench, leading to a non-equilibrium composition. However, it is still unclear how chemical reactions proceed during the cooling impact vapor plume and lead to the synthesis of organic molecules. In this study, to investigate the evolution of chemical co…

The Impact of Spectroscopic Redshift Errors on Cosmological Measurements
Spectroscopic redshift errors, including redshift uncertainty and catastrophic failures, can bias cosmological measurements from galaxy redshift surveys at sub-percent level. We investigate their impact on full-shape clustering analysis using contaminated mock catalogs. We find that redshift uncertainty introduces a damping effect on the power spectrum. This damping is scale-dependent and absorbed by counterterms in the clustering model, keeping parameter biases below $5\%$ for the DESI survey.…
