First direct search for light dark matter interactions in a transition-edge sensor
We propose the use of transition-edge sensor (TES) single-photon detectors as a simultaneous target and sensor for direct dark matter searches, and report results from the first search of this kind. We perform a 489 h science run with a TES device optimized for the detection of 1064 nm photons, with a mass of ~0.2 ng and an energy threshold of ~0.3 eV, and set new limits on dark matter interactions with both electrons and nucleons for dark matter with mass below the MeV scale. With their excell…

Zero-Energy RIS-Assisted Communications With Noise Modulation and Interference-Based Energy Harvesting
To advance towards carbon-neutrality and improve the limited {performance} of conventional passive wireless communications, in this paper, we investigate the integration of noise modulation with zero-energy reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). In particular, the RIS reconfigurable elements (REs) are divided into two groups: one for beamforming the desired signals in reflection mode and another for harvesting energy from interference signals in an absorption mode, providing the power requ…

L vill terrorklassa kvinnohat. Om de hade läst lagboken så hade de sett att terror defineras enligt "Enligt svensk lag är ett terroristbrott en gärning som skadar en stat eller mellanstatlig organisation allvarligt, med syftet att injaga fruktan, tvinga eller destabilisera." Jag vill inte på något sätt försvara eller förringa allvaret i att män skadar eller tom dödar kvinnor - men är kvinnor att klassa som stat eller mellanstatlig organisation? L är i dagsläget bara ett ickeliberal…

Data Poisoning for In-context Learning
In the domain of large language models (LLMs), in-context learning (ICL) has been recognized for its innovative ability to adapt to new tasks, relying on examples rather than retraining or fine-tuning. This paper delves into the critical issue of ICL's susceptibility to data poisoning attacks, an area not yet fully explored. We wonder whether ICL is vulnerable, with adversaries capable of manipulating example data to degrade model performance. To address this, we introduce ICLPoison, a speciali…
