We discuss the relationship between the zero modes of electromagnetic fields in a cavity resonator and the cavity's topological characteristics. We show that the dimension of the electromagnetic zero-mode space coincides with the dimension of the corresponding homology group of the cavity. Moreover, we prove that the alternating sum...
Scalar-tensor theories predict fundamental scalar fields of considerable interest in astrophysics and cosmology. We investigate the superradiant instability of scalar clouds around Kerr black holes, showing that stimulated decay generates detectable electromagnetic signals. The growth of the superradiant scalar cloud differs from that...
We investigate the discovery potential of the $T_{bc}$ state with $J^P = 0^+$ in proton-proton ($pp$) collisions at LHCb at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 13~\mathrm{TeV}$. The study focuses on the decay channel $T_{bc} \to B^- D^+$. A phenomenological approach is employed to construct the background model based on the...
We present a comprehensive theoretical assessment of the masses of possible baryonic configurations characterized by the presence of two heavy top quarks, including $Ξ_{ttu}$, $Ξ_{ttd}$, $Ω_{tts}$, $Ω_{ttc}$, and $Ω_{ttb}$ systems. This analysis is rigorously executed within the specialized framework of two-point $\mathrm{QCD}$ sum...
Neutrons produced by cosmic ray muons constitute a significant background for underground experiments investigating neutron oscillations, neutrinoless double beta decay, dark matter, and other rare event signals. This work benchmarks measured neutron yields and neutron multiplicities--with a focus on data from the Daya Bay Reactor...
The discrepancy on the muon anomalous magnetic moment values obtained via a direct measurement and via a data-driven theory determination that uses the experimentally measured hadronic cross section, is among the long standing and most significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions. The recently presented final result of...
It has been observed in numerous experiments, simulations, and various theoretical treatments that the spreading of particles can be modeled by the continuous-time random walk. We consider two well-known cases, i.e., Gaussian displacements and discrete displacements, to compute the position distribution and demonstrate the emergence...
This study investigates the minimal seed for laminar-to-turbulent transition in a supersonic boundary layer at $M=3.0$ and $Re=300$ using adjoint-based nonlinear non-modal analysis. While linear theory identifies oblique waves as the optimal disturbances for transient growth, we demonstrate that nonlinear effects fundamentally alter...
Eigenvalue transformations appear ubiquitously in scientific computation, ranging from matrix polynomials to differential equations, and are beyond the reach of the quantum singular value transformation framework. In this work, we study the efficiency of quantum algorithms based on contour integral representation for eigenvalue...
Understanding how dark matter affects the immediate environment of black holes (BHs) is crucial for interpreting horizon-scale observations. We study rotating BHs surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter (PFDM), exploring their observable features through both analytical and numerical approaches. Using the existence criterion of the...
A broadband silicon polarization beam splitter (PBS) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated based on Floquet-engineered directional couplers. The total length of the coupling structure is 20 um . By periodically modulating the waveguide width of the directional couplers, the power exchange between the two waveguides for the...
The rapid advancement of quantum computing has led to the development of various quantum libraries, empowering compilation, simulation, and hardware backend interfaces. However, ensuring the correctness of these libraries remains a fundamental challenge due to the lack of mature testing methodologies. The state-of-the-art tools often...
A transient (LPA J0108+13) with repeated bursts was detected on the Large Phased Array (LPA) radio telescope at a central frequency of 110.4 MHz in the direction of the radio galaxy 3C 33. The flux density of bursts ranges from tens to hundreds of Jy, and the duration of the bursts is \approx 1^m - 4^m. In daily observations, the...
Biological matrices are rich in information related to life processes, serving as invaluable media for assessing an individual's overall physiological status and its dynamic fluctuations, as well as crucial foundations for disease diagnosis. However, the inherent complexity of these matrices, coupled with our incomplete understanding...
Modelling fluid dynamics with machine learning (ML) has advanced rapidly, yet most data driven approaches remain opaque because they rely on complex architectures to capture nonlinear flow behaviour. This lack of interpretability limits the reliability and hinders the understanding of when and why some models succeed or fail. To...
At the base of the Sun's convective zone, a narrow shear layer called the tachocline separates strong latitudinal differential rotation above from nearly rigid rotation in the radiative zone below. The observed thinness of the tachocline is a long-standing dynamical puzzle because the tachocline should have spread significantly due to...
High-Energy Physics (HEP) experiments, such as those at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), generate massive datasets that challenge classical computational limits. Quantum Machine Learning (QML) offers a potential advantage in processing high-dimensional data; however, finding the optimal architecture for current Noisy...
Branching ratios for fragmentation channels of important meta- and unstable species are essential for a molecular-level characterization of atmospheric chemistry. Here, the molecular product channels for the decomposition dynamics of the smallest Criegee intermediate, H$_2$COO, are quantitatively investigated. Using a high-quality,...
Indoor occupancy classification enables privacy-preserving monitoring in settings such as remote elder care, where presence information helps triage alarms without cameras or wearables. Radar suits this role by sensing motion through occlusions and in darkness. Modern deep-learning pipelines are the standard for interpreting radar...
A small body orbiting around an accreting massive object and periodically crossing its accretion disk is a common configuration in astrophysics. In this work, we investigate the secular evolution of extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs), in which a stellar-mass object (SMO), e.g., a star or a stellar-mass black hole (sBH), collides...
The quantum Hall effect is a fascinating electrical transport phenomenon signified by precise quantization of Hall conductivity $σ_\mathrm{xy}$ and vanishing longitudinal conductivity $σ_\mathrm{xx}$. Laughlin proposed an elegant explanation in which adiabatic insertion of a flux tube pumps charge through the system. This analysis...
In this work, we investigate neutron stars (NSs) in the strong field regime within the framework of symmetric teleparallel $f(Q)$ gravity, considering three representative models: linear, logarithmic, and exponential. While Bayesian studies of NS observations are well established in general relativity and curvature based modified...
The neutron-star X-ray source 1E 161348-5055, associated with the supernova remnant RCW 103, exhibits clear intensity variations with a period of 6.67 hr. To clarify the nature of this object and its long periodicity, detailed timing studies were applied to its archival X-ray data, taken with ASCA (in 1993), XMM-Newton (in 2001, 2005,...
Strategies for tuning structural and (opto-)electronic properties are fundamental to the rational design of functional materials. Here, we present a molecular design approach for precisely modulating the optoelectronic properties of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) through single-atom halogen substitution on $π$-extended anthracene...
The quantum first-detection problem concerns the statistics of the time at which a system, subject to repeated measurements, is observed in a prescribed target state for the first time. Unlike its classical counterpart, the measurement back action intrinsic to quantum mechanics may profoundly alter the system dynamics. Here we show...
