:librewolf: #LibreWolf's obsession with preventing everything HTML canvas is gettin on my nerves... It even ruins pasting images into the built-in #PDFjs PDF viewer, but you only realize that AFTER you're done and open it in another viewer, to realize that the image is all f*cked up. 🙄

This fascinates me. Probably part of the same brain structures that inform my love of history, and my love of figuring out how to get certain old guitar tones

Statistical conservation laws for scalar model problems: Hierarchical evolution equations
The probability density functions (PDFs) for the solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation can be represented by a hierarchy of linear equations. This article develops new hierarchical evolution equations for PDFs of a scalar conservation law with random initial data as a model problem. Two frameworks are developed, including multi-point PDFs and single-point higher-order derivative PDFs. These hierarchies capture statistical correlations and guide closure strategies.

Impact of new measurements of light quarks at hadron colliders
Recently a series of new measurements with both the neutral and charge current Drell--Yan processes have been performed at hadron colliders, showing deviations from the predictions of the current parton distribution functions (PDFs). In this article, the impact of these new measurements is studied by using their results to update the PDFs. Although these new measurements correspond to different boson propagators and colliding energies, they are found to have a similar impact to the light quark …

Say goodbye to copy and pasting with this new feature from Anthropic.

Gerade PDF Arranger entdeckt. Das ist ein gutes Werkzeug, um unter Linux PDFs zusammenzustellen oder Seiten umzusortieren, Auch gut, unter Eigenschaften ändern kann man auch fix die Metadaten von PDFs editieren.

Data-driven Discovery of Novel High-performance Quaternary Chalcogenide Photovoltaics
Photovoltaic materials facilitate the conversion of sunlight into electricity by harnessing the interaction between light and matter, offering an eco-friendly and cost-efficient energy solution. Combining data-driven approaches with static and time-dependent density functional theories and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics simulations, we predict 14 high-performance photoabsorber materials from a family of known quaternary semiconductors. Among these, we investigate four compounds - SrCuGdSe3, Sr…

Determination of the pion generalized parton distributions at zero skewness
We perform a global QCD analysis of the pion electromagnetic form factor (FF) data from pion electroproduction and elastic pion scattering to extract the valence pion generalized parton distributions (GPDs) at zero skewness. The analysis uses three different sets of pion parton distribution functions (PDFs), namely xFitter, JAM21, and MAP23, to construct the GPD ansatz. Through a $χ^2$ minimization and a careful parametrization scan, we determine the profile function parameters and find that o…
