We present a comprehensive benchmarking dataset and empirical scaling law analysis for neural network wavefunctions by matching them to a wide spectrum of famous many body target wavefunctions. The dataset, WF-Bench, spans multiple distinct…
Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous plasma phenomenon that plays a critical role in particle heating and energization. During reconnection, the topology of magnetic field rearranges, depositing energy into the surrounding plasma through…
We investigate the February 19, 2025, re-entry of a Falcon 9 upper stage using optical observations from 43 meteor cameras across central Europe together with radar detections of re-entry plasma obtained with the 32.55 MHz SIMONe Germany…
Some optical measurements require relative timing of intensity variations with accuracy much finer than the camera frame period. One motivating example is dynamic aurora, where different prompt emissions are expected to originate from…
In a low Reynolds number fluid environment that microswimmers encounter, back-and-forth motion cannot lead to net displacement. In mammalian sperm, the mechanical wave propagating along their single flagellum breaks the cancellation between…
Virological measurements are often treated as reports of virion structure, mechanics, dielectric response, infectivity, or titer. In practice, an experiment observes a protocol-conditioned projection of a richer latent virion--environment…
We present MARUT, a scalable multi-GPU computational fluid dynamics (CFD) framework designed for high-fidelity simulations of compressible flows spanning subsonic to hypersonic regimes, including chemically reacting nonequilibrium flows…
Why does the mammalian vascular tree maintain a conserved branching exponent $\alpha^* \approx 2.72$ across a $10^7$-fold range in body mass, despite a fundamental shift from viscous to wave-dominated transport? We prove this universality…
Murray's cubic branching law ($\alpha=3$) predicts a universal diameter scaling exponent for all hierarchical transport networks, yet arterial trees yield $\alpha \sim 2.7-2.9$. We show that this discrepancy has a structural origin:…
This paper presents a deep learning strategy to simultaneously solve Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) and back-calculate their parameters in the context of deep tunnel excavation. A Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN) model is…
Biofilms in porous media critically influence hydraulic properties in environmental and engineered systems. However, a mechanistic understanding of how microbial life controls permeability remains elusive. By combining microfluidics,…
The GW plus Bethe-Salpeter equation (GW-BSE) formalism is a well-established approach for calculating excitation energies and optical spectra of molecules, nanostructures, and crystalline materials. We implement GW-BSE in the CP2K code and…
The pursuit-evasion game is studied for two adversarial active agents, modelled as a deterministic self-steering pursuer and a stochastic, cognitive evader. The pursuer chases the evader by reorienting its propulsion direction with limited…
Given the urgency to reduce fossil fuel energy production to make climate tipping points less likely, we call for resource-aware knowledge gain in the research areas on Universe and Matter with emphasis on the digital transformation. A…
We introduce an evidence-driven Bayesian formulation of physics-informed neural networks that enables automatic optimization of loss weights between PDE residuals, boundary conditions, and observational data. Unlike existing Bayesian PINN…
Living cells are energy- and information-processing systems that sustain a nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) by continuously consuming energy and dissipating heat, as required by the second law of thermodynamics. The rate of heat…
High-temperature superconducting (HTS) coated conductors (CCs) can be wound into no-insulation (NI) coils, in which electrical current can partially bypass local normal zones via turn-to-turn contact layers (T2TCLs). Accurate…
Measurements of interplanetary magnetic fields have long relied on spacecraft measurements, which provide only in-situ sampling and therefore cannot capture the global magnetic structure. Faraday rotation of radio signals extends in-situ…
Primary hemostasis is initiated by platelet adhesion and aggregation at a site of vascular injury and is strongly regulated by local hydrodynamic conditions. At elevated shear rates, platelet capture is mediated by von Willebrand factor…
The optimization of energy group structures is integral to ensure the accuracy of multigroup neutron transport calculations. This works introduces the use of reinforcement learning (RL) with surrogate modeling to optimize the group…
