Tiny sensor could transform head injury detection
A tiny sensor that detects hazardous head impacts the instant they occur could reshape safety monitoring in sports, transportation and other high-risk settings.

Abstract: A numerical semigroup is an additive subsemigroup of the natural numbers that contains zero and has finite complement. A numerical semigroup is irreducible if it cannot be written as an intersection of numerical semigroups properly containing it. It is known that every numerical semigroup can be decomposed as an intersection of irreducible numerical semigroups, but there can be multiple such decompositions, even when irredundancy is required. In this paper, we study the set of all decomposition lengths of a given numerical semigroup. It is conjectured that the set of decomposition lengths is always an interval; we prove this conjecture for numerical semigroups whose smallest positive element is at most six. Additionally, we examine a class of numerical semigroups that was recently shown to achieve arbitrarily large minimum decomposition length, and construct a family of irreducible decompositions whose lengths form a large interval.

If you're interested in how I quantified natural #CO2 emissions from "mofettes" near #Tübingen with a low-cost sensor network, and want to join my PhD defense tomorrow at 10:00, DM me here and i might send you the link (if I don't forget it 😅).
I'll be mostly talking about …

Quantification of natural CO2 emissions from mofettes using a low-cost sensor network at the Starzach site in South-West Germany
We present a top-down method to derive CO2 emissions from mofettes, using only point measurement time series at irregular locations. Notably, no wind vector information is needed, as gas transport is derived from cross-correlations between sensor stations and subsequently integrated using Gauss’ divergence theorem. The method is applied to an existing low-cost sensor network at the Starzach site near the Black Forest in Germany, for which no comprehensive estimate of the total emissions exist…

Orbitofrontal cortex drives predictive filtering of sensory responses (in mice) https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-026-02217-z "After daily sound exposure, neural habituation in the primary auditory cortex (A1) was reversed by inactivating the OFC."

Orbitofrontal cortex drives predictive filtering of sensory responses - Nature Neuroscience
Top-down projections from the orbitofrontal cortex carry predictive signals that grow with sound experience and suppress the auditory cortex via inhibitory circuits, revealing a predictive mechanism for sensory habituation.

Disentangling the functional roles of pre-stimulus oscillations in crossmodal associative memory formation via sensory entrainment - Scientific Reports
The state of neural dynamics prior to the presentation of an external stimulus significantly influences its subsequent processing. This neural preparatory mechanism might be of particular importance for crossmodal memory formation. The integration of stimuli across different sensory modalities is a fundamental mechanism underlying the formation of episodic memories. However, the causal role of pre-stimulus neural activity in this process remains largely unclear. In this preregistered study, we …
