The advancement of chemistry and materials science relies on transformative analytical tools which can overcome the sensitivity, spatial resolution, and throughput limitations of conventional techniques. This review explores the application…
Classical fluctuation theorems for work have been obtained theoretically, and verified experimentally, within a non-autonomous framework in which work is performed on a system of interest, ${\cal S}$, by the external manipulation of a work…
We introduce a static, horizonless, asymptotically flat two throat wormhole family in which one global metric determines the geometry, effective source, null dynamics, lensing, and test field propagation. A finite mass deformation of a…
We develop a Keldysh-replica non-linear sigma model (NLSM) for the entanglement dynamics of a monitored one-dimensional spinful $s$-wave BCS chain in the rare-measurement regime, $\gamma \ll J,\Delta$. Although the clean spinful $s$-wave…
Gate teleportation, together with magic state distillation, is a promising route towards fault-tolerant, universal computation. In the context of bosonic quantum computation, Baragiola et al. PRL 123(20).200502 (2019) showed that within the…
Identifying Population III (Pop III) stars, the first generation of metal-free stars in the early Universe, remains a central challenge in astrophysics. High-ionization emission lines, such as HeII are commonly used as tracers of Pop III…
We present a general construction of charged regular black holes as solutions of a generalization of the Einstein--Maxwell field equations in spherical symmetry in which the Einstein tensor is deformed into an identically conserved tensor…
Silicon spin qubits have emerged as a promising qubit technology due to their favorable scaling and fabrication properties. However, efficiently compiling quantum circuits onto spin qubit platforms remains challenging, particularly when…
Using the Cosmicflows-4 data, we reconstruct the first multipolar moments of a general function describing the local expansion rate. In addition to the conventional harmonic approach, we employ a basis of symmetric and trace-free tensors to…
Ultra-long gamma-ray bursts (ULGRBs) and luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs) are two rare classes of engine-driven transients whose physical connection remains unknown. It has been suggested that both may arise from the mergers…
The faint radio-source population includes galaxies dominated by both star formation (SF) and active galactic nuclei (AGN), which are two key processes shaping galaxy evolution. To investigate this population, we probabilistically…
In a class of quantum circuits known as peaked circuits, the goal is to predict the most probable bit string at the output of the circuit. Since these circuits are designed to have a sharp peak in their output distribution, in principle it…
We show that cosmological models with a semi-infinite phase of slow contraction (ekpyrosis) possess a combination of properties that can address several fundamental problems in cosmology, otherwise faced in contracting de Sitter phases or…
Non-thermal synchrotron emissions from radio halo allow us to study mechanisms of particle (re)acceleration, magnetic field distribution, merger history, and turbulence in the intra-cluster medium. We propose power spectrum estimation as a…
Recent evidence from Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) for a nanohertz gravitational wave background is broadly consistent with theoretical expectations from a population of massive black hole binaries (MBHBs), although the inferred amplitude…
Two-level systems (TLS) are a leading source of decoherence and dielectric loss in Josephson-junction qubits, yet their microscopic origin remains unresolved. We propose an intrinsic, purely electronic TLS candidate: subgap bound states of…
Deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) provides a powerful probe of physics beyond the Standard Model through precision measurements interpreted within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). We study the impact of collision-induced QED…
We consider the relative entropy between the vacuum and a coherent state in the Rindler wedge for an interacting $\lambda \phi^4$ theory to first order in $\lambda$. We construct the perturbatively interacting Weyl algebra of the wedge, and…
Non-local magic has recently emerged as a fundamental resource for characterizing genuinely non-local non-stabilizer correlations. However, its direct calculation is an intractable numerical problem, except for small systems, and its…
A large negative thermal Hall signal has been reported across multiple cuprate families in the pseudogap phase where the superconducting order parameter has vanished, with a magnitude that no existing microscopic theory reproduces without…
