The topological charge and its density are related to the spin vorticity, while the spin vorticity is a part of full vorticity of the medium. The full vorticity is related to an integral of motion called the hydrodynamic helicity. Relation…
Strong gravitational lensing combined with stellar dynamics provides a complementary route for testing gravity on kiloparsec scales and probing the internal structure of massive galaxies. However, such studies remain limited by degeneracies…
We present an observable-driven study of leptophilic gauge interactions mediated by a neutral vector boson $Z_\ell$ at future $e^+e^-$ colliders. Focusing on the process $e^+e^- \to \mu^+\mu^-$, we investigate the sensitivity of angular…
Near-term physical implementations of quantum algorithms require efficient quantum error mitigation schemes to reduce quantum noise. In this letter we propose a new mitigation technique, by extending the applicability of our BBGKY-ISM…
Majorana zero modes are the hallmark of topological superconductivity. In one-dimensional systems, these zero modes are usually introduced in the context of gapped, mean-field models that do not conserve particle number, such as the Kitaev…
This work presents a compact RF MEMS switching platform for automated one-port SOL calibration of microwave lines. The system is based on a Menlo Micro MM5230 SP4T RF MEMS switch integrated on a grounded coplanar waveguide board and driven…
All published models of ultraviolet (UV) inactivation of airborne viruses in saliva droplets have neglected UV light scattering. To the best of our knowledge, this work presents the first Computational Fluid Dynamics-Discrete Dipole…
Cosmic rays (CRs) likely provide dynamically important non-thermal pressure support in the circumgalactic medium (CGM), but how their transport physics shapes observable absorption signatures remains uncertain. We investigate whether…
The Al-V alloy system contains a number of phases including several with complex structures and at least two exhibiting sites of partial occupation. Through electronic density functional theory-based total energy calculations combined with…
The Ding-Iohara-Miki (DIM) algebra (quantum toroidal algebra of $\widehat{gl_1}$) is related to a wide class of quantum many-particle integrable systems, a typical one being the Ruijsenaars trigonometric system with eigenfunctions that are…
Gravitational waves from binary black hole mergers remain among primary sources for ground-based and space laser interferometers. Primordial binary black holes (PBHs) can form binaries in the early Universe or at the matter-dominated stage…
Core-collapse supernova gravitational waves may carry information about the dense matter equation of state (EoS), which describes the relation between pressure, density, temperature, and composition. This work tests a crucial question for…
Recent baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), in combination with CMB and supernova data, show a mild preference for dynamical dark energy over flat $\Lambda$CDM. They can also…
Modern and next generation supernova cosmology analyses rely on end to end simulations to train photometric classifiers, characterise selection effects, validate light curve models, and calibrate distance bias corrections. Standard closure…
The mechanism enabling antiferromagnets, including altermagnets, to exhibit a prominent anomalous Hall effect despite a vanishingly small net magnetization has long remained elusive. Here, by employing oriented spin group theory and…
Density functional theory (DFT) often is the method of choice for simulating the electronic properties of extended solids and surfaces from first principles due to a favorable compromise between accuracy and computational cost. In the field…
Einstein's equations of general relativity are one of the most complicated set of equations in all of physics and, for all but idealized physical settings, can only be solved by numerical methods on high-performance computing systems.…
We present a minimal analytic framework to investigate the star formation efficiency per free-fall time, $\epsilon_{\rm ff}$, in giant molecular clouds (GMCs), focusing on the origin of the observed clustering around $\epsilon_{\rm ff} \sim…
Grid state qubits offer a hardware-efficient approach to large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing. They access the information redundancy required for quantum error correction by exploiting the large Hilbert space naturally available in…
The unavoidable dissipation of heat in electronic nanostructures is a crucial problem, specially when their operation requires low temperatures. It demands finding devices able to control and redirect the excess heat, ideally without…
