Systemic collapse emergence from climate-induced perturbations in transportation networks

The interaction between human infrastructures and external events results in loss of functionality or even complete system disruption through a snowball effect of cascading failures. Their complex interplay challenges their prevention, affecting the human population that rely on...

Early Transition Metal Carbene Complexes as Photocatalysts: Unveiling Dual-Emission and Photo-reactivity

Abstract Photoactive transition metal complexes are playing a pivotal role in synthetic chemistry and application technologies, such as photocatalysis and light-emitting diodes, yet they often depend on precious metals. Early-transition-metal photosensitizers offer a promising, y...

Electrostatic Lens of a Charged Vortex

We study the local electrostatic response of a charged superfluid in the presence of a cylindrically symmetric vortex, allowing both the particle density and the thermodynamic compressibility to vary with the radial coordinate. Starting from the electrostatic charge response obta...

Measurements of the production of W$$^{\pm }$$ and Z$$^0$$ bosons in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13$$ TeV

Abstract Measurements of the production of the W $$^{\pm }$$ ± and Z $$^0$$ 0 bosons at midrapidity in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13$$ s = 13 TeV with ALICE at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presented. The W $$^{\pm }$$ ± and Z $$^0$$ 0 bosons are detected via their (di)e...

The line, the strip and the duality defect

In the Symmetry Topological Field Theories (SymTFT) that describes the exotic models XY-plaquette and XYZ-cube, we construct codim-1 condensation defects by higher gauging with discrete torsion the non-compact symmetry of the bulk. In the framework of SymTFT Mille-feuille, which...

Study of Supernova Neutrinos at ESSnuSB

In this paper, we have studied the sensitivity of the ESSnuSB far detector to supernova neutrinos. ESSnuSB is a proposed long-baseline neutrino experiment in Sweden, which will use a 538 kt water Cherenkov detector to probe the leptonic phase δCP by studying the second oscillatio...

Extended Appendix: From X-rays to High-Energy Gamma-rays: A Comprehensive Multi-Wavelength Study of Early Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows

This extended abstract provides additional details, figures, tables, and results supporting the analysis presented in the main manuscript titled "From X-rays to High-Energy Gamma-rays: A Comprehensive Multi-Wavelength Study of Early Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows". We present the com...

Lecture notes on machine learning applications for global fits

These lecture notes provide a comprehensive framework for performing global statistical fits in high-energy physics using modern Machine Learning (ML) surrogates. We begin by reviewing the statistical foundations of model building, including the likelihood function, Wilks’ theore...

Shape coexistence in 94Zr from a model-independent analysis

Low-lying states of 94Zr were investigated via low-energy multi-step Coulomb excitation. From the measured γ-ray yields, 16 reduced E2 transition probabilities between low-spin states were determined, together with the spectroscopic quadrupole moments of the 2+1,2 states. Based o...

Cloning and characterization of intermediate Homer1E of human skeletal muscle

Abstract HOMER proteins are scaffolding proteins critically involved in intracellular signaling, calcium homeostasis, receptor trafficking and synaptic plasticity. Three human HOMER genes ( HOMER1 , HOMER2 , HOMER3 ) are expressed in both neurons and skeletal muscle fibers. HOMER...

Review of Particle Physics *

The Review summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology. Using data from previous editions, plus 3,200 new measurements from 903 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons and the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons, and b...
