Structures of group-15 elemental solids from an effective boundary theory
We present an effective description for the crystal structures of pnictogen elemental solids. In these materials, each atom contains three valence electrons in $p$ orbitals. They are shared between neighbouring atoms to form valence bonds. We propose a trivalent network model on the simple cubic lattice. As a generalization of a dimer model, we impose a constraint that three dimers must touch every site. We argue that intra-orbital Coulomb repulsion prohibits the formation of two adjacent, para…

First simultaneous global QCD analysis of kaon and pion parton distributions with lattice QCD constraints
We perform the first simultaneous global QCD analysis of pion and kaon parton distribution functions (PDFs), constrained by pion- and kaon-induced Drell-Yan (DY) and leading neutron electroproduction data, together with lattice QCD data on pion and kaon PDF moments. The analysis indicates a softer valence $\bar u$ distribution in the $K^-$ than in the $π^-$, and a significantly more peaked valence $s$-quark density in $K^-$ compared with the $\bar u$. The effective exponent governing the high-…

Correlative 3D Mapping of Structure, Composition, and Valence State Dynamics in Battery Cathodes via Simultaneous ADF-EDS-EELS Tomography
Understanding degradation in battery cathodes and other functional materials requires simultaneous knowledge of structural, chemical, and electronic changes in three dimensions (3D). Here, we present a simultaneous ADF-EDS-EELS tomography method that enables 3D mapping of atomic structure, composition, valence states, and transition metal inhomogeneity within a single, low-dose STEM tilt series acquisition. Applied to LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 (NCM111) particles at different electrochemical cycling s…

Valence $1s-0d$ proton vacancy of the $^{32}$Si ground state
The $^{32}$Si($^3$He,$d$)$^{33}$P reaction was studied in inverse kinematics at 6.3~MeV/$u$. States in $^{33}$P corresponding to the proton $1s-0d$ single-particle orbitals were identified up to $\sim$4.5 MeV in excitation energy. The ($^{3}$He,$d$) spectroscopic factors were determined from Distorted Wave Born Approximation calculations. When combined with complementary neutron-adding data, the $1s-0d$ proton vacancies in the $^{32}$Si ground state were extracted. In conjunction with a re-anal…

Flavour asymmetry of antiquarks in nucleon and nucleus
Over the years, comprehensive experiments have shown a fact that the nucleons, such as the proton and neutron, are formed by not only the "valence" up and down quarks which were thought to comprise the nucleons in a simple constituent picture, but also "sea" quarks which can be any other flavour. However, it is still unknown how sea quarks are generated inside the nucleons. Since 1990s, measurements on high energy deuterons (formed by a proton and a neutron) indicated that the anti-down quark c…

Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Circular Dichroism of an Open-Shell Organometallic Camphor Complex
We present an investigation of one-photon valence-shell photoelectron spectroscopy and photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) for the chiral molecule (1R,4R)-3-(heptafluorobutyryl)-(+)-camphor (HFC) and its europium complex Eu(III) tris[3-(heptafluorobutyryl)-(1R,4R)-camphorate] (Eu-HFC$_{3}$), the latter of which constitutes the heaviest organometallic molecule for which PECD has yet been measured. We discuss the role of keto-enol tautomerism in HFC, both as a free molecule and complexed in E…

As part of the ongoing NUCLEI-PACK project, this study presents a semi-classical framework for exploring the microscopic geometry of light and exotic nuclei based on optimized sphere packing of nucleons and clusters. Starting from explicit nucleon coordinates generated by the packing algorithm, the model provides direct access to charge, matter, and core--valence radii, allowing quantitative analysis of clustering and halo formation.

A Systematic Review: Affective Perception on Urban Facades
Architectural facades critically shape affective perception in urban environments. Here, affect is understood as a multidimensional psychological construct encompassing valence (pleasure-displeasure) and arousal (activation-deactivation). Despite growing interest in affective responses to the built environment, the affective impact of urban architectural facades remains under-theorized. This study conducts a systematic review of 61 works, guided by the PRISMA framework, to identify which facade…

Exclusive photoproduction of light and heavy vector mesons: thresholds to very high energies
A reaction model for $γ+ p \to V + p$, $V=ρ^0, ϕ, J/ψ, Υ$, which exposes the quark-antiquark content of the photon in making the transition $γ\to {q} \bar{q} + \mathbb P \to V$, where ${q}$ depends on $V$, and couples the intermediate ${q} \bar{q}$ system to the proton's valence quarks via Pomeron ($\mathbb P$) exchange, is used to deliver a unified description of available data -- both differential and total cross sections -- from near threshold to very high energies, $W$, for all the $V…

A Point Process Model of Skin Conductance Responses in a Stroop Task for Predicting Depression and Suicidal Ideation
Accurate identification of mental health biomarkers can enable earlier detection and objective assessment of compromised mental well-being. In this study, we analyze electrodermal activity recorded during an Emotional Stroop task to capture sympathetic arousal dynamics associated with depression and suicidal ideation. We model the timing of skin conductance responses as a point process whose conditional intensity is modulated by task-based covariates, including stimulus valence, reaction time, …

MSF-SER: Enriching Acoustic Modeling with Multi-Granularity Semantics for Speech Emotion Recognition
Continuous dimensional speech emotion recognition captures affective variation along valence, arousal, and dominance, providing finer-grained representations than categorical approaches. Yet most multimodal methods rely solely on global transcripts, leading to two limitations: (1) all words are treated equally, overlooking that emphasis on different parts of a sentence can shift emotional meaning; (2) only surface lexical content is represented, lacking higher-level interpretive cues. To overco…

r-process nucleosynthesis with ab initio nuclear masses around the N=82 shell closure
Our understanding of the origin of heavy elements beyond iron relies on the rapid neutron capture process (r-process), which accounts for roughly half of their cosmic abundance. However, the extreme neutron-rich conditions required for the r-process involve many nuclei that remain experimentally inaccessible, making theoretical predictions essential. We explore the impact of nuclear masses calculated with the ab initio valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group, focusing on the re…

InconVAD: A Two-Stage Dual-Tower Framework for Multimodal Emotion Inconsistency Detection
Detecting emotional inconsistency across modalities is a key challenge in affective computing, as speech and text often convey conflicting cues. Existing approaches generally rely on incomplete emotion representations and employ unconditional fusion, which weakens performance when modalities are inconsistent. Moreover, little prior work explicitly addresses inconsistency detection itself. We propose InconVAD, a two-stage framework grounded in the Valence/Arousal/Dominance (VAD) space. In the fi…

Obstruction-Driven Parity Inversion for Enhanced Optical Absorption in Hexagonal Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
The optical selection rule states that opposite parity between the valence and conduction bands is required for optical absorption to occur. However, monolayer hexagonal transition metal dichalcogenides (h-TMDs) such as $ \mathrm{MoS}_{2} $ exhibit pronounced optical absorption despite their nominally dipole-forbidden d-d transitions. In this Letter, we elucidate a parity inversion mechanism through which obstruction-driven band inversion promotes dipole-allowed optical transitions near the ban…

LARA-Gen: Enabling Continuous Emotion Control for Music Generation Models via Latent Affective Representation Alignment
Recent advances in text-to-music models have enabled coherent music generation from text prompts, yet fine-grained emotional control remains unresolved. We introduce LARA-Gen, a framework for continuous emotion control that aligns the internal hidden states with an external music understanding model through Latent Affective Representation Alignment (LARA), enabling effective training. In addition, we design an emotion control module based on a continuous valence-arousal space, disentangling emo…

Large scale shell model calculation for collectivity in nuclei beyond 78Ni
A shell model effective interaction for nuclei beyond the double magic nucleus 78Ni is constructed. First, the single-particle evolutions for valence neutrons above the double magic 78Ni are systematically explored in the N = 51 isotones using the large scale shell model (LSSM) calculations based on the constructed effective interaction. Subsequently, we calculate the excitation energies of 2+1 states and reduced electric quadrupole transition probabilities B(E2; 2+ to 0+) for N = 52 isotones. …

Decoding Shake-up Satellites in XPS through Large-Scale ab initio Simulations: Spectral Signatures of Ring Fusion in Porphyrins
In X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), shake-up satellites arise when core ionization is accompanied by simultaneous charge-neutral valence excitations. Although these satellites can contain detailed structural information, they are rarely interpreted due to the lack of accurate and scalable theoretical methods. Here, we develop and apply a many-body perturbation theory framework within the $GW$ plus cumulant ($GW+C$) approach that enables accurate predictions of shake-up satellites in larg…

Spin-basis wavefunctions for the one-dimensional Kitaev model
Magnetic phases with quantum entanglement are often expressed in terms of parton wavefunctions. Relatively few examples are known where wavefunctions can be directly written down in the spin basis. In this article, we consider the spin-$S$ Kitaev model in one dimension. For $S=1/2$, its eigenstates can be written using a Jordan-Wigner fermionic representation. Here, we present ground state wavefunctions for any $S$ directly in the spin basis. The states we propose are valence bond arrangements,…

Unpacking Musical Symbolism in Online Communities: Content-Based and Network-Centric Approaches
This paper examines how musical symbolism is produced and circulated in online communities by combining content-based music analysis with a lightweight network perspective on lyrics. Using a curated corpus of 275 chart-topping songs enriched with audio descriptors (energy, danceability, loudness, liveness, valence, acousticness, speechiness, popularity) and full lyric transcripts, we build a reproducible pipeline that (i) quantifies temporal trends in sonic attributes, (ii) models lexical salie…

Multireference equation-of-motion driven similarity renormalization group for X-ray photoelectron spectra
We formulate and implement the core-valence separated multireference equation-of-motion driven similarity renormalization group method (CVS-IP-EOM-DSRG) for simulating X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) of strongly correlated molecular systems. This method is numerically robust and computationally efficient, delivering accurate core-ionization energies with O(N^4) scaling relative to basis set size N in the EOM step. To ensure rigorous core intensivity, we propose a simple modification of the gr…

Influence of La-doping on the magnetic properties of the two-dimensional spin-gapped system SrCu$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$
Aliovalent doping of the two-dimensional dimer antiferromagnet SrCu$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$ has long been proposed as a potential route toward realizing resonating valence bond (RVB) superconductivity in this system; however, experimental progress has remained limited.

We study the $N=20$ island of inversion region in the odd-$A$ Ne and Mg isotopes from the fundamental nuclear forces based on chiral two- and three-nucleon potentials. The state-of-the-art \textit{ab initio} valence space in medium similarity renormalization method was used for this purpose. Our study focuses on the evolution of single-particle states and discusses their transition into the island of inversion through particle-hole excitations across the $N=20$ shell gap.
