We study the spatially resolved relation between dust attenuation ($A_V$) and star formation rate surface density ($\Sigma_{\mathrm{SFR}}$) in galaxies from the MAGPI survey ($0.25 < z < 0.42$). Using Balmer-decrement-based attenuation maps…
Bose-Einstein-condensed (BEC) and superfluid dark-matter (SFDM) halos can contain coherent, wave-supported cores whose angular momentum is carried by quantized vortices. When vortices form a tangle, reconnections convert part of the vortex…
The gravitational lensing of multi-messenger signals from binary neutron star mergers (BNSs), including gravitational waves (GWs), short Gamma-Ray bursts (sGRBs), kilonovae, and afterglows, can serve as a unique probe to constrain the mass…
Understanding how nonequilibrium driving modifies phase-separation kinetics remains a fundamental challenge. Here we show that phase separation in a two-temperature system exhibits a striking density-induced reentrant coarsening behavior.…
Zn-metalloproteins play vital roles in numerous metabolic processes, making them high-value targets for structure-based drug design. To advance these efforts, it is useful to unravel the individual components of the intermolecular…
In electron-only collisionless magnetic reconnection (MR), a regime of growing importance in turbulent space plasmas, electrons develop strongly non-Maxwellian distributions that invalidate conventional fluid closures based on assumptions…
Tissue surfaces exhibit complex curvature during embryogenesis and oncogenesis. Evidence shows that cells can actively sense curvature to regulate behavior and fate, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, we develop a vertex…
The recent discovery by the LHAASO collaboration of a variable ultra-high-energy (UHE; $E_\gamma \ge$ 100 TeV) $\gamma$-ray source associated with the microquasar Cygnus X-3, with a spectrum extending to several PeV, provides compelling…
Efficient single-photon frequency conversion is investigated in a two-giant-atom waveguide-QED system, where a two-level giant atom and a $\Lambda$-type three-level giant atom couple to a common one-dimensional waveguide. While the…
This work systematically unveils the nanoscale surface damage dynamics in gallium nitride by investigating the atomistic mechanisms of hillock formation. The results identify two distinct hillock morphologies dependent on electronic energy…
Hybrid nanomaterials incorporating deep eutectic solvents (DES) in porous hosts or at solid interfaces are gaining increasing attention for their potential interest across a wide range of applications. Under these conditions, the…
Revealing the mechanisms of phonon scattering is crucial for understanding material properties such as transport characteristics and optical responses. It can be discussed by measuring the temperature dependence of the phonon energy and…
High refractive index dielectrics are central to photonic applications, yet the empirical Moss rule imposes a fundamental trade-off between refractive index and optical transparency. We introduce a modified Moss rule anchored to the optical…
Compressible physical fields are widely present in the real physical world, but current artificial intelligence lacks an understanding mechanism for the non-differentiable features in compressible physical fields. Addressing the limitations…
In a symmetry-restoration quantum Mpemba effect, an initial state with stronger local symmetry breaking can lose that memory faster than a state that starts closer to the symmetric manifold. We test whether this local ordering reversal is…
This paper presents diurnal measurements of the single-electron count rate in the PHELEX experiment using multi-cathode counters over the period from 2023 to 2026. The results obtained are interpreted as an indication of a possible effect…
Gravitational-wave observations of compact binary mergers have enabled precision tests of gravity in the strong-field dynamical regime. Current approaches combine single-event results that assume deviations from General Relativity (GR) are…
O- and B-type stars are young and hot, thereby serving as vital tracers of the star formation and spiral arm structure of the Milky Way. At the dusk of the \textit{Gaia} DR3 era, a high-confidence and accurate catalogue appears timely. Here…
The substitutional alloy SrTi$_{1-x}$V$_x$O$_3$ interpolates between the band insulator SrTiO$_3$ and the correlated metal SrVO$_3$, exhibiting a composition-driven metal--insulator transition whose origin combines Mott physics with local…
The twin paradox is a foundational thought experiment in the special theory of relativity where a returning twin ages less than the one who remains stationary. However, the intricacies of the twin paradox remain relatively underexplored in…
