Great reframing by Malcolm Harris at 52:50 here: When a capitalist says they need more profit to invest in something socially beneficial like housing, that profit is a fee they collect from the public, and a blockage that exists *because* there's a capitalist class that controls the money we need. That's really insightful and I'd never thought of it that way.

20-truck monty.
It is unlikely to all be on any one truck or at all on most of them.
The IAEA is not going to be happy. https://defenseofliberty.social/@MalcolmNance/114738718224071490

Attached: 1 image Wait so they saw all these trucks at the #Iranian plant and still #bombed it instead of following where the trucks went and now they don’t know where the #uranium is….is that the gist?

I wrote some rambling through on my legacy.

Hadronic decays of possible pseudoscalar $P$-wave $D\bar{D}^\ast/\bar{D}D^\ast$ molecular state
Recently, the new structure $G(3900)$ observed by the BESIII collaboration in the $e^+e^-\to D\bar{D}$ was identified to be the $P$-wave $D\bar{D}^\ast/\bar{D}D^\ast$ vector molecular resonance using a unified meson exchange model. Apart from the vector $P$-wave state, a possible pseudoscalar $P$-wave molecular state of the $D\bar{D}^\ast/\bar{D}D^\ast$ (called $G_0(3900)$ for short) was also predicted, which is likely to be observed in the future experiments. Within the molecular framework, we…

A standard transformer and attention with linear biases for molecular conformer generation
Sampling low-energy molecular conformations, spatial arrangements of atoms in a molecule, is a critical task for many different calculations performed in the drug discovery and optimization process. Numerous specialized equivariant networks have been designed to generate molecular conformations from 2D molecular graphs. Recently, non-equivariant transformer models have emerged as a viable alternative due to their capability to scale to improve generalization. However, the concern has been that …

Fine-tuning the complex organic molecule formation: sulfur and CO ice as regulators of surface chemistry
Grain-surface chemistry plays a crucial role in the formation of molecules of astrobiological interest, including H$_{2}$S and complex organic molecules (COMs). They are commonly observed in the gas phase toward star-forming regions, but their detection in ices remains limited. Combining gas-phase observations with chemical modeling is therefore essential for advancing our understanding of their chemistry. In this paper we investigate the factors that promote or hinder molecular complexity comb…

Electric-field Quantum Sensing Exploiting a Photogenerated Charge-transfer Triplet State in a Molecular Semiconductor

Electric-field Quantum Sensing Exploiting a Photogenerated Charge-transfer Triplet State in a Molecular Semiconductor
Molecular spin systems are promising platforms for quantum sensing due to their chemically tunable Hamiltonians, enabling tailored coherence properties and interactions with external fields. However, electric field sensing remains challenging owing to typically weak spin-electric coupling (SEC) and limited directional sensitivity. Addressing these issues using heavy atoms exhibiting strong atomic spin-orbit couplings (SOC) often compromises spin coherence times. Here, we demonstrate coherent el…
