We investigate pattern formation in a finite chain of bosonic modes whose dynamics is governed by a Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad (GKSL) master equation. The model combines local parametric driving and nonlinear damping with…
Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.18 to 4.95 GeV with the BESIII detector, we observe the process $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\eta J/\psi$ with a statistical…
Light-electron interactions generate synthetic momentum-space dynamics that can be used to engineer free electron quantum states. Here we develop coherent control protocols in which the optical phase acts as the controllable hopping phase…
Diffuse-interface immersed boundary methods (DIBMs) provide a simple and robust approach for simulating flows involving complex geometries. However, their inherent diffusion effect can contaminate the near-wall flow field and significantly…
Quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs) have been observed in a broad electromagnetic spectrum, encompassing radio, ultraviolet, white light, X-rays, and Gama-rays. Yet, flare-associated QPPs remain rarely detected in mid-infrared emission. Here,…
Measurements of the HI content of galaxies serve as an important tracer for probing the impact of environment on galaxy evolution. More specifically, the HI deficiency (defined as the difference between expected unaltered and observed HI…
In this paper, we study the deflection of massless particles due to a rotating, axially symmetric Kerr-Bertotti-Robinson (KBR) black hole via; material medium approach. We explored the effect of spacetime geometry on the trajectory of light…
Engineered loss, gain, and non-reciprocity can sharply amplify a sensor's response, and exceptional points and the skin effect are widely proposed as routes to more precise quantum sensors. Some predict an exponentially large quantum Fisher…
Although one-sided spreading has been shown to improve the near-wall accuracy of diffuse-interface immersed boundary methods (DIBMs), the effect of its asymmetric kernel support on the effective boundary location remains insufficiently…
SrTiO3 thin films, 20-30nm, with high quality crystal structure and low roughness can be used as growth templates for complex oxides or as the dielectric materials for capacitor structures. In this work, stoichiometric STO thin films were…
The Hindmarsh-Rose (HR) neuronal network has recently been the subject of studies highlighting the influence of the electric field on the chimera states within it. In this study, we demonstrate the influence of the magnetic field on three…
Finding rotating black hole solutions in higher-curvature theories of gravity is a problem of fundamental importance. Virtually every approach to reconcile gravity with quantum mechanics predicts corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert action,…
Rising temperatures create new challenges for local heat adaptation. Yet, it remains unclear how urban activity changes during hot periods and which urban environments people concentrate in as temperatures rise. Here, we perform a…
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) has traditionally framed the detection challenge with a focus on the parameter $L$ in the Drake equation - the communicative lifetime of a civilisation. I argue that the more pertinent…
Hyperuniform systems, defined by the anomalous suppression of large-scale density fluctuations, are a paradigm of non-equilibrium self-assembly. While mechanisms underlying the self-assembly of hyperuniform states have been widely studied,…
We consider confining gauge theories with a non-vanishing topological angle $\theta$, which induces CP-violating interactions among dark pions and dark baryons, with dark matter consisting of dark neutrons. The $\theta$ term generates…
Non-Hermitian frameworks extend conventional Hermitian physics, offering a powerful paradigm for describing open systems. Central to this field are various singularities within the complex parameter space, such as exceptional points (EPs)…
We study a driven selection mechanism on a fixed heavy-tailed network. At each step fresh mass is injected, its direction is recomputed from the current mass profile by a power-normalization rule, and the combined mass is transported by a…
It was previously shown that $H_0$ influences gravitational wave propagation beyond simple redshift, by modifying the effective wavenumber. While earlier studies focused on Pulsar Timing Arrays, we analyze the observability of this effect…
Using 200,388 red clump stars from LAMOST and APOGEE, we investigate the radial metallicity gradients of the Galactic disk as a function of vertical height and stellar age. The thin disk displays a pronounced negative radial metallicity…
