Boundary reflection matrices of massive $ϕ_{1,3}$-perturbed unitary minimal models
We propose explicit expressions for the boundary reflection matrices of the ${\cal A}_m+(r,s)$ series of massive scattering theories, obtained by perturbing the ${\cal A}_m$ unitary minimal models with $(r,s)$ boundary conditions with both bulk and boundary $ϕ_{1,3}$ operators. We identify the vacua that live on the boundary with the allowed edges of the $(r,s)$ conformal boundary conditions of the $A_m$ Andrews-Baxter-Forrester model. The boundary reflection matrices are then ``direct sums'' …

EPA Has Terminated Over $15 Million in Funding for “Forever Chemicals” Research
The EPA said in May that it will delay enforcement on the drinking water limits for PFOA and PFOS until 2031.

Trump’s First EPA Promised to Crack Down on Forever Chemicals. His Second EPA Is Pulling Back.
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin claims to prioritize combatting long-lasting chemicals called PFAS. Despite this, the agency has delayed enforcement of standards and terminated over $15 million in funding for “forever chemicals” research.

Classical Guitar Duet Separation using GuitarDuets -- a Dataset of Real and Synthesized Guitar Recordings
Recent advancements in music source separation (MSS) have focused in the multi-timbral case, with existing architectures tailored for the separation of distinct instruments, overlooking thus the challenge of separating instruments with similar timbral characteristics. Addressing this gap, our work focuses on monotimbral MSS, specifically within the context of classical guitar duets. To this end, we introduce the GuitarDuets dataset, featuring a combined total of approximately three hours of rea…

Moskau: Militärische Ziele attackiert
Angaben des russischen Verteidigungsministeriums zufolge zielten die jüngsten Angriffe auf mehrere ukrainische Regionen ausschließlich auf militärische Ziele ab. Das Ministerium sprach von einem "Großangriff" gegen "Unternehmen des militärisch-industriellen Komplexes und Militärflugplätze in der Ukraine".
Aus der Ukraine hieß es, das russische Militär habe fast 600 Drohnen und etwa 30 Ra…

Weak metric structures on generalized Riemannian manifolds
Linear connections with torsion are important in the study of generalized Riemannian manifolds $(M,G=g+F)$, where the symmetric part $g$ of $G$ is a non-degenerate (0,2)-tensor and $F$ is the skew-symmetric part. Some space-time models in theoretical physics are based on $(M,G=g+F)$, where $F$ is defined using a complex structure. In the paper, we first study more general models, where $F$ has constant rank and is based on weak metric structures (introduced by the first author and R. Wolak), wh…
