Twisted products of monoids
A twisting of a monoid $S$ is a map $Φ:S\times S\to\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the identity $Φ(a,b) + Φ(ab,c) = Φ(a,bc) + Φ(b,c)$. Together with an additive commutative monoid $M$, and a fixed $q\in M$, this gives rise a so-called twisted product $M\times_Φ^qS$, which has underlying set $M\times S$ and multiplication $(i,a)(j,b) = (i+j+Φ(a,b)q,ab)$. This construction has appeared in the special cases where $M$ is $\mathbb{N}$ or $\mathbb{Z}$ under addition, $S$ is a diagram monoid (e.g.~parti…

Bottom baryon decays into light meson and dark baryon within perturbative QCD approach
In the work, we study the production of dark baryon $ψ$ with the bottom-baryon decays $Λ_b\to M ψ$ under the perturbative QCD approach. For the Type-I/II models in B-Mesogenesis scenarios, we calculate the form factors for bottom-baryon decays into meson. Using these results, we obtain branching ratios for $Λ_b\to M ψ$ decays. The PQCD approach calculations show these branching ratios reach $\mathcal{O}(10^{-5})$ in both models, with $\mathcal{B}(Λ_b\to Kψ)$ specifically reaching $\mathc…

Bursting at the seams: the star-forming main sequence and its scatter at z=3-9 using NIRCam photometry from JADES
We present a comprehensive study of the star-forming main sequence (SFMS) and its scatter at redshifts $3 \leq z \leq 9$, using NIRCam photometry from the JADES survey in the GOODS-S and GOODS-N fields. Our analysis is based on a sample of galaxies that is stellar mass complete down to $\log \left(M_{\star}/M_{\odot}\right) \approx 8.1$. The redshift evolution of the SFMS at an averaging timescale of 10 Myr follows a relation, quantified by the specific star-formation rates (sSFR$_{10}$), of $\…

Improved limits on the 21cm signal at z=6.5-7.0 with the MWA using Gaussian information
We explore the properties of interferometric data from high-redshift 21~cm measurements using the Murchison Widefield Array. These data contain redshifted 21~cm signal, contamination from continuum foreground sources, and radiometric noise. The 21~cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization is expected to be highly-Gaussian, which motivates the use of the power spectrum as an effective statistical tool for extracting astrophysical information. We find that foreground contamination introduces non-G…

Asymptotics of the real eigenvalue distribution for the real spherical ensemble
The real Ginibre spherical ensemble consists of random matrices of the form $A B^{-1}$, where $A,B$ are independent standard real Gaussian $N \times N$ matrices. The expected number of real eigenvalues is known to be of order $\sqrt{N}$. We consider the probability $p_{N.M}^{\rm r}$ that there are $M$ real eigenvalues in various regimes. These are when $M$ is proportional to $N$ (large deviations), when $N$ is proportional to $\sqrt{N}$ (intermediate deviations), and when $M$ is in the neighbou…

Given that high circular polarization ($>90$\%) has been observed in FRB~20201124A and in some giant pulses of PSR~B1937+21, we discuss the implications of the high circular polarization of CHIME J1634+44 and conclude its emission mechanism is likely to be ``pulsar-lik…

Cyclicity of Smooth Multipliers on the Unit Ball of $\mathbb{C}^n$: A Corona-Based Approach
We study the cyclicity of smooth multipliers in Dirichlet-type spaces $D_α(\mathbb{B}_n)$. Specifically, we show that a smooth multiplier $f$ on the unit ball, whose zero set on the unit sphere is a compact, smooth, complex tangential submanifold of real dimension $m \leq n - 1$, is cyclic in $D_α(\mathbb{B}_n)$ if and only if $α\leq \frac{2n - m}{2}$, where $m$ is the real dimension of the zero set of $f$ on the boundary.

To further explore this unique behavior, we conducted high-pressure studies, examining the electrical transport, magnetic, and …

The verification of liveness conditions is an important aspect of state-based rigorous methods. This article addresses the extension of the logic of Event-B to a powerful logic, in which properties of traces of an Event-B machine can be expressed. However, all formulae of this logic are still interpreted over states of an Event-B machine rather than traces. The logic exploits that for an Event-B machine $M$ a state $S$ determines all traces of $M$ starting in $S$. We identify a fragment called …

This leads to a confirmation of the weak isomorphic reverse isoperimetry conjecture for $X$, namely, we demonstrate that there exists a convex body $L=L_X\subset B_X$ such th…

AL-SPCE -- Reliability analysis for nondeterministic models using stochastic polynomial chaos expansions and active learning
Reliability analysis typically relies on deterministic simulators, which yield repeatable outputs for identical inputs. However, many real-world systems display intrinsic randomness, requiring stochastic simulators whose outputs are random variables. This inherent variability must be accounted for in reliability analysis. While Monte Carlo methods can handle this, their high computational cost is often prohibitive. To address this, stochastic emulators have emerged as efficient surrogate models…

Current work investigates and reports for the first time, the structure-property relationships in free-standing blend films of poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE)) and polylactic acid (PLA), prepared to evaluate their suitability for functional applications. For this investigation, films of approximately 40 $μ$m thick were fa…

The Surface Orientation Ambiguity for Single Molecules at Dielectric Interfaces
Fluorescent molecules emit light in a dipole radiation pattern that can be used to infer their orientation through defocused fluorescence microscopy. Proper measurement of the orientation requires mathematical modeling of the radiation pattern expected for a dipole in the geometry of interest, and subsequent comparison against experimental data. We point out an ambiguity in common calculations of these patterns that appears to compromise orientation measurements for molecules that are especiall…

A transition from H$_2$O to C$_2$H$_2$ dominated spectra with decreasing stellar luminosity
The chemical composition of the inner regions of disks around young stars will determine the properties of planets forming there. Many disk physical processes drive the chemical evolution, some of which depend on/correlate with the stellar properties. We aim to explore the connection between stellar properties and inner disk chemistry, using mid-infrared spectroscopy. We use JWST-MIRI observations of a large, diverse sample of sources to explore trends between C$_2$H$_2$ and H$_2$O. Additionall…

A high-lying isomer in ^{92}Zr with lifetime modulated by the atomic charge states: a proposed approach for a nuclear gamma-ray laser
The nuclides ^{92}Zr are produced and transported by using a radioactive beam line to a lowbackground detection station. After a flight time of about 1.14 μs, the ions are implanted into a carbon foil, and four γ rays deexciting the 8+ state in ^{92}Zr are observed in coincidence with the implantation signals within a few nanoseconds. We conjecture that there exists an isomer located slightly above the 8^{+} state in ^{92}Zr. The isomeric lifetime in highly charged states is extended signific…

New high-precision $b$, $c$, and $s$ masses from pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar correlators in $n_f=4$ lattice QCD
We extend an earlier lattice QCD analysis of heavy-quark current-current correlators to obtain new values for the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ masses of the $b$, $c$, and $s$ quarks. The analysis uses gluon configurations from the MILC collaboration with vacuum polarization contributions from $u$, $d$, $s$, and $c$ quarks ($n_f=4$), and lattice spacings down to 0.032 fm. We find that $\overline{m}_b(\overline{m}_b,n_f=5) = 4.1911(62)$ GeV, $\overline{m}_c(3 \mathrm{GeV},n_f=4) = 0.9808(33)$ GeV, an…

The variety of nilpotent pairs $(A,B)$ with $[A,B] = λI$
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p >0$. We consider the variety of nilpotent pairs $(A,B)$ with $[A,B]=λI$, namely the set of pairs $ X = \{ (A,B) \in M_n(k) \times M_n(k) \mid A,B \text{ nilpotent}, [A,B]=λI, λ\in k \}$. We prove that if $n=pr$, then $X$ is irreducible of dimension $n^2$.

A High Resolution Search for Dual AGNs in Mergers: Pushing the Frontier with Keck AO
Accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in galaxy mergers with separations $<$ 1kpc are crucial to our understanding of SMBH growth, galaxy evolution, and the evolution of SMBH binaries. Despite their importance, there are less than a handful known, and most have been discovered serendipitously. In this work, we employ a new selection method to systematically pre-select candidate advanced mergers likely to contain unresolved substructure at sub-arcsecond scales.

The velocity anisotropy profiles, $β(r)$, of galaxy clusters are directly related to the shape of the orbits of their member galaxies. Knowledge of $β(r)$ is important to understand the assembly process of clusters and the evolutionary processes of their galaxies, and to improve the determination of cluster masses based on cluster kinematics. We determine the $β(r)$ of nine massive clusters at redshift $0.19 \leq z \leq 0.45$ from the CLASH-VLT data set, with 150 to 950 spectroscopic members…

Spectral Energy Correlations of Gamma-Ray Bursts from Structured Jets
Using 148 out-axis gamma-ray bursts, we build their spectrum-energy relations of peak energy versus isotropic energy, peak energy versus peak luminosity and peak energy versus jet-calibrated energy which are corrected for a structured jet model. These relations are found to depend on the observer's viewing angle as long as the observer is within the jet cone. After converting the out-axis energy relations to the in-axis situations, we find that the corresponding in-axis energy relations are uni…

Counterpart identification and classification for eRASS1 and characterisation of the AGN content
[abridged] Accurately accounting for the AGN phase in galaxy evolution requires a large, clean AGN sample. This is now possible with SRG/eROSITA. The public Data Release 1 (DR1, Jan 31, 2024) includes 930,203 sources from the Western Galactic Hemisphere. The data enable the selection of a large AGN sample and the discovery of rare sources. However, scientific return depends on accurate characterisation of the X-ray emitters, requiring high-quality multiwavelength data. This paper presents the i…

J-PAS: Forecasting constraints on Neutrino Masses
The large-scale structure survey J-PAS is taking data since October 2023. In this work, we present a forecast based on the Fisher matrix method to establish its sensitivity to the sum of the neutrino masses. We adapt the Fisher Galaxy Survey Code (FARO) to account for the neutrino mass under various configurations applied to galaxy clustering measurements. This approach allows us to test the sensitivity of J-PAS to the neutrino mass across different tracers, with and without non-linear correcti…

Yesterday as I was biking through Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, I saw what looked like a roadrunner. It had the very long tail features, and was the right proportions in general. I wish I'd gotten a picture, because I'm very curious what it actually was.

Optimizing $pp\to A\to Z^{*}h\to \ell^+\ell^- b\bar b$ Searches at the LHC in the 2HDM Type-I with Inverted Hierarchy
In this study, we investigate the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) search for the signal process $pp\to A \to Z^{*}h \to \ell^{+} \ell^{-} b \bar{b}$ ($\ell=e,μ$) within the framework of the 2-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) Type-I, considering an Inverted Hierarchy (IH) scenario wherein the Standard Model (SM)-like Higgs boson $H$ is heavier than $h$ (i.e., $m_h < m_H=125$ GeV). We reproduce the dominant background distributions from a CMS analysis of $pp\to H \to Z A \to \ell^{+} \ell^{-} b \bar{b}$ (…

The changing transit shape of TOI-3884 b
TOI-3884 b is a sub-Saturn transiting a fully convective M-dwarf. Observations indicate that the transit shape is chromatic and asymmetric as a result of persistent starspot crossings. This, along with the lack of photometric variability of the host star, indicates that the rotational axis of the star is tilted along our line of sight and the planet-occulted starspot is located close to the stellar pole. We acquired photometric transits over a period of three years with the Swiss 1.2-meter Eule…

Axial-vector molecular structures $B_{c}^{\ast \pm} B_{c}^{\mp}$
The axial-vector molecular structure $\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{AV}}=(B_{c}^{\ast +}B_{c}^{-} + B_{c}^{\ast - } B_{c}^{+})/2$ is explored in QCD sum rule framework. The mass and current coupling of this compound are found by means of the two-point sum rule method. It turns out that the mass of $\mathcal{M} _{\mathrm{AV}}$ is equal to $m=(12770 \pm 60)~\mathrm{MeV}$ making possible its dissociations to pairs of $J/ψη_b$, $Υη_c$, $ B_{c}^{\ast +} B_{c}^{-}$, and $B_{c}^{\ast - } B_{c}^{+}$ mesons.…

H.E.S.S. programme searching for VHE gamma rays associated with FRBs
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are highly energetic, extremely short-lived bursts of radio flashes. Despite extensive research, the exact cause of these outbursts remains speculative. The high luminosity, short duration, and high dispersion measure of these events suggest they result from extreme, high-energy extragalactic sources, such as highly magnetized and rapidly spinning neutron stars known as magnetars. The number of detected FRBs, including repeating ones, has grown rapidly in recent years. …

A JWST/MIRI view of k Andromedae b: Refining its mass, age, and physical parameters
Context. kAndb is a substellar companion near the planet-brown dwarf boundary, orbiting a B9IV star at 50-100 au. Estimates of its age and mass vary, fueling a decade-long debate. Atmospheric parameters (Teff 1650-2050 K, log(g) 3.5-5.5) remain poorly constrained due to model differences and heterogeneous datasets. Aims. We refine the characterization of kAndb using mid-infrared data to capture its bolometric emission. Combined with NIR measurements, we constrain Teff, log(g), and radius to red…

DECADE+DES Y3 Weak Lensing Mass Map: A 13,000 deg$^2$ View of Cosmic Structure from 270 Million Galaxies
We present the largest galaxy weak lensing mass map of the late-time Universe, reconstructed from 270 million galaxies in the DECADE and DES Year 3 datasets, covering 13,000 square degrees. We validate the map through systematic tests against observational conditions (depth, seeing, etc.), finding the map is statistically consistent with no contamination. The large area covered by the mass map makes it a well-suited tool for cosmological analyses, cross-correlation studies and the identificatio…

Beta Canis Majoris: The Other Major Ionization Source of the Local Interstellar Clouds

Beta Canis Majoris: The Other Major Ionization Source of the Local Interstellar Clouds
Two nearby B-type stars, $ε$ CMa ($124\pm2$ pc) and $β$ CMa ($151\pm5$ pc), are important contributors to the photoionization of the local interstellar clouds. At spectral type B1 II-III, $β$ CMa is slightly hotter than $ε$ CMa (B2 II-III), but its ionizing flux at Earth is attenuated by a much larger H I column density. At the external surface of the clouds, the two stars produce similar fluxes in the Lyman continuum (LyC). From the $β$ CMa angular diameter, bolometric flux, and position …

Metallicity of Active Galactic Nuclei from ultraviolet and optical emission lines-II. Revisiting the $C43$ metallicity calibration and its implications
In this study, a new semi-empirical calibration is proposed between ultraviolet emission lines (\ion{C}{iii}]$\lambda1909$, \ion{C}{iv}$\lambda1549$, \ion{He}{ii}]$\lambda1640$) of type~2 AGNs and their metallicity ($Z$). This calibration is derived by comparing a large sample of 106 objects (data taken from the literature) located over a wide range of redshifts ($0 \: \lesssim \: z \: \lesssim \: 4.0$) with predictions from photoionization models that adopt a recent C/O-O/H relation derived vi…

The Interstellar Medium in I Zw 18 seen with JWST/MIRI: II. Warm Molecular Hydrogen and Warm Dust
We present JWST/MIRI spectra from the Medium-Resolution Spectrometer of IZw18, a nearby dwarf galaxy with a metallicity of $\sim 3$% Solar. Here, we investigate warm molecular hydrogen, H2, observed in spectra extracted in $\sim 120$ pc apertures centered on eleven regions of interest. We detect 7 H2 rotational lines, some of which are among the weakest ever measured. The H2 population diagrams are fit with local-thermodynamic-equilibrium models and models of photodissociation regions. We also …
