Analysis: Reform-led councils threaten 6GW of solar and battery schemes across England - Carbon Brief
Reform UK’s local-election victories in May 2025 could put 6 gigawatts (GW) of new clean-energy capacity at risk, according to Carbon Brief analysis.

Large effects from quantum reference frames
Reference frames are used to parameterize measurements of physical effects, but since their practical realization uses material objects, they may affect observations performed in a combined quantum state of the measured system together with the frame. Here, a procedure is used that makes it possible to describe non-monotonic reference scales in a quantum treatment, revealing large quantum effects in the measured system whenever a reference frame encounters a turning point. Subtle quantum correl…

Varying reference-point salience
The salience of reference points and expectations may significantly influence the loss aversion mechanism in effort provision. We exploit a natural experiment where highly professional and incentivized individuals perform their task in a setting with exogenous variation of reference-point salience. While a relevant reference point is salient in some cases, where it influences individuals' expectations, it is obscured in others. This enables us to examine the interplay between reference-point sa…

UAV Object Detection and Positioning in a Mining Industrial Metaverse with Custom Geo-Referenced Data
The mining sector increasingly adopts digital tools to improve operational efficiency, safety, and data-driven decision-making. One of the key challenges remains the reliable acquisition of high-resolution, geo-referenced spatial information to support core activities such as extraction planning and on-site monitoring. This work presents an integrated system architecture that combines UAV-based sensing, LiDAR terrain modeling, and deep learning-based object detection to generate spatially accur…

Functional Multi-Reference Alignment via Deconvolution
This paper studies the multi-reference alignment (MRA) problem of estimating a signal function from shifted, noisy observations. Our functional formulation reveals a new connection between MRA and deconvolution: the signal can be estimated from second-order statistics via Kotlarski's formula, an important identification result in deconvolution with replicated measurements. To design our MRA algorithms, we extend Kotlarski's formula to general dimension and study the estimation of signals with v…
