What goes up must come down: How megaconstellations like SpaceX's Starlink network pose a grave safety threat to us on Earth
Thousands of satellites with incredibly short lifetimes are being sent up into low Earth orbit. When they fall back down they're fireballs of pollution — and what doesn't burn up hits the ground.

This German Town Carefully Reconstructed a 5,500-Year-Old Monument Lifting 13 Tons of Stone
Archaeological work in the forests has identified ten settlements from the time, which may explain the monumentality of Küsterberg.

My first thought when I get sick is how I will miss out on potential lifting gains. #priorities #lifting #workout

Surface plasmon polaritons with extended lifetime
The propagation distance of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) on metal nanowires is severely limited by their short lifetime, primarily due to strong metallic losses. In this work, we show that the lifetime-and thus the propagation distance-of SPPs can be significantly extended through the use of Fano resonances. Our FDTD simulations demonstrate that the SPP intensity at a fixed propagation distance can be enhanced by approximately 30 times. Furthermore, this enhancement factor is multiplicativ…

The future muon collider for the research of the anomalous neutral quartic $Zγγγ$, $ZZγγ$, and $ZZZγ$ couplings
In the post-LHC era, the muon collider represents a frontier project capable of providing high-energy and high-luminosity leptonic collisions among future lepton-lepton particle accelerators. In addition, it provides significantly cleaner final states than those produced in hadron collisions. With this expectation in mind, in this article, we research the sensitivity of the anomalous neutral gauge boson couplings $Zγγγ$, $ZZγγ$, and $ZZZγ$ defined by dimension-8 operators, through the $μ…

Reconstruction and identification of pairs of collimated $Ï„$-leptons decaying hadronically using $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV $pp$ collision data with the ATLAS detector
This paper describes an algorithm for reconstructing and identifying a highly collimated hadronically decaying $τ$-lepton pair with low transverse momentum. When two $τ$-leptons are highly collimated, their visible decay products might overlap, degrading the reconstruction performance for each of the $τ$-leptons. This requires a dedicated treatment that attempts to tag it as a single object. The reconstruction algorithm is based on a large radius jet and its associated two leading subjets, a…

Kaum Hoffnung auf Durchbruch bei möglichen Gesprächen
UN-Spitzendiplomatin Rosemary DiCarlo hat nach den jüngsten russischen Angriffen auf die Ukraine geringe Erwartungen an die möglichen neuen direkten Gespräche zwischen den Kriegsparteien in Istanbul. Die Hoffnung, dass sich Vertreter Kiews und Moskaus bei den am Montag anvisierten Gesprächen "hinsetzen und verhandeln" bestehe zwar, sie sei aber "sehr gering". Noch im verga…

Stochastic comparison of series and parallel systems lifetime in Archimedean copula under random shock
In this paper, we studied the stochastic ordering behavior of series as well as parallel systems' lifetimes comprising dependent and heterogeneous components, experiencing random shocks, and exhibiting distinct dependency structures. We establish certain conditions on the lifetime of individual components where the dependency among components defined by Archimedean copulas, and the impact of random shocks on the overall system lifetime to get the results. We consider components whose survival f…
