NMSSMScanner: Efficient scans in the NMSSM parameter space proof of concept
We present the first version of the new scanning tool NMSSMScanner that allows to perform efficient scans in the complex multi-parameter space of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (NMSSM) while taking into account all relevant constraints. As a pr...

Single-Water Microsolvation Promotes Proton Sharing in a Neutral Formic Acid–Ammonia Complex
Abstract Can single-water microsolvation promote proton sharing in a neutral acid–base complex? We address this question for formic acid–ammonia by isolating its monohydrated complex with broadband rotational spectroscopy and interpreting the resolved 14N hyperfine structure with...

In quantum aggregates, delocalized exciton states across energy manifolds interact with phonon modes, making state-resolved spectroscopic monitoring of dynamics challenging. We propose a scheme that combines photon-entanglement-enhanced narrowband excitation of two-exciton states...

Clathrin adaptors drive phase separation in endocytosis and trafficking
Abstract Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) underlies the formation of biomolecular condensates that organize processes, including endocytosis and membrane trafficking. Although LLPS has been implicated in clathrin-mediated pathways, the contribution of adaptor proteins to con...

AllShowers: One model for all calorimeter showers
Accurate and efficient detector simulation is essential for modern collider experiments. To reduce the high computational cost, various fast machine learning surrogate models have been proposed. Traditional surrogate models for calorimeter shower modeling train separate networks...

Multimodal imaging reveals no evidence for magnetite-based magnetoreceptors in the mole-rat eye
Magnetoreception is widespread across animals, but its sensory mechanism remains unresolved. One leading hypothesis proposes that single-domain magnetite is coupled to mechanosensitive ion channels. In subterranean Ansell's mole-rats, such receptors have been proposed to reside i...

Real-time measurement error mitigation for one-way quantum computation
Abstract We propose a quantum error mitigation scheme for single-qubit measurement errors, particularly suited for one-way quantum computation. Contrary to well established error mitigation methods for circuit-based quantum computation that require the circuits to be run several...

Multiscale Symmetry Breaking Enables Tunable Magnetic Anisotropy and Damping in Co 2 FeAl Thin Films
ABSTRACT The ability to simultaneously engineer magnetic stability and spin dissipation remains difficult to realize in scalable metallic thin films. Here, we show that multiscale symmetry breaking provides a route to achieve this control in polycrystalline Co 2 FeAl films withou...
