Ways of improvement of struggling School Children in Nepali Subject: An Action Research

Sometimes, young children find it difficult to learn Nepali concepts, leading to a situation where their grades start falling, especially in public schools in the Kathmandu valley. This paper tells us about the possible reasons behind students' struggles in subjects like Nepali a...

Animal-Assisted Interventions in Custodial Settings: A Systematic Review of Psychological Wellbeing Outcomes

The use of animal-assisted interventions (AAIs) to support incarcerated individuals’ psychological wellbeing has expanded rapidly in recent years. However, research in custodial settings remains limited and is largely characterized by methodologically weak study designs that rely...

Detecting clear-air turbulence via beam broadening in a Rayleigh-scattering lidar system

The volume of clear-air turbulence (CAT) in the atmosphere at flight cruising altitudes is increasing rapidly, posing a growing problem for civil aviation and resulting in reduced confidence in aviation safety. There are limited remote detection capabilities for CAT, since clear...

Game theory driven multi-agent framework mitigates language model hallucination

The application of lightweight Large Language Models in rule-based scientific domains remains severely limited by their tendency to mimic linguistic patterns rather than reproduce axiomatic reasoning, causing frequent hallucinations. Here, we show that G-Frame, an adaptive multi-...

Signatures of photospheric convection throughout the solar atmosphere: the EVE Sun-as-a-star mHz continuum

Abstract Convectively driven motions in the solar photosphere can generate broadband Doppler variability across the chromosphere, transition region and corona. Here we investigate this variability using “Sun-as-a-Star” observations from the Extreme Ultraviolet Variability Experim...

Shape analysis in Schauder spaces of the energy of heat problems in perturbed annular domains

This paper is devoted to the shape analysis of the energy of a caloric family of Schauder functions defined on a bounded perforated domain $Ω^o \setminus \overline{Ω^i[ϕ]}$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, where the outer boundary is fixed, and the inner boundary is obtained by a $C^{1,α}$-per...

Exact analytical solutions for the piston effect in supercritical fluids under post-acoustic approximation — Short-time asymptotics, thermal penetration depth and comparison with the Spacelab D-2 experiments

Near the liquid–vapor critical point, fluids become highly compressible, giving rise to a special, strongly coupled thermo-mechanical process: the piston effect. In this phenomenon, a thin thermal boundary layer develops near a heated wall; owing to strong thermal expansion, this...

From “More Is Different” to Algorithmic Emergence: Regularity, Compression, and the Limits of Discovery

Scientific discovery seeks regularities that support explanation and prediction. Compression makes their reuse explicit: shared structure is described once, while parameters specify individual cases. A model can, therefore, pay for itself through repeated use even when its descri...

Aziridination-Based Crosslinking Enables Site-Resolved Elucidation of Lipid Binding and Protein Conformational Changes

Abstract Lipid–protein interactions play critical roles in cellular function, yet their site-resolved characterization remains challenging due to the dynamic nature of lipid binding and the limited availability of chemoselective strategies for covalently capturing native lipid–pr...

Network analysis reveals that total hip arthroplasty restores shared segmental motion before segmental differentiation

Unilateral hip osteoarthritis (HOA) reshapes whole-body movement, and total hip arthroplasty (THA) restores function only partially—but conventional kinematic analyses fall short of characterizing how the body’s distributed coordination reorganizes. Network analyses of inter-segm...

Confidence-Aware Gaze-Depth Interaction for Reliable 3D Target Selection in Consumer VR Headsets

Gaze-based interaction offers a natural, low-effort input channel for virtual reality (VR), but gaze-depth estimates on consumer headsets vary with viewing distance, fixation stability, head motion, and scene properties. We propose confidence-aware gaze-depth compensation, which...

Seigneurial institutions and Holland's seventeenth‐century miracle

Abstract This article revisits the claim that Holland owed much of its seventeenth‐century efflorescence to the absence of feudal constraints on its economy. Because Holland was relatively late to develop in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, it supposedly missed the European Fe...

Four‐Level Overlapping Schwarz as Multigrid Coarse Solver for Incompressible Non‐Newtonian Flow in Complex Geometries

ABSTRACT For complex geometries, the coarse problem of geometric multigrid can be too large to be solved by a direct solver. Here, we report on the use of domain decomposition applied to the multigrid coarse problem. Additive overlapping Schwarz methods are domain decomposition m...

Negatively Charged Polysaccharide Stabilizes Amorphous Strontium Sulfate Precursor Phase

Abstract Biomineralization describes how living organisms orchestrate the synthesis of functional inorganic materials for structural protection or mechanical support. Mineralization under biological regulation often involves amorphous mineral phases, such as amorphous calcium car...

Fermion renormalized vertex functions, effective mass, and condensate in an external Yang-Mills gauge field

We investigate the renormalized fermion-gluon vertex, the fermion effective mass, and the fermion condensate when the fermion propagates in an external Yang-Mills gauge field. We use an exact Green’s function for the Dirac operator in a non-Abelian plane-wave gauge field to const...

A variational quantum algorithm for nonlinear finite element analysis of hyperelastic materials

This manuscript explores a variational quantum formulation for nonlinear elasticity problems arising from hyperelastic material models. The approach leverages the potential energy structure of hyperelasticity and employs a hybrid quantum classical framework in which the energy fu...

Beyond Scalar Objectives: Expert-Feedback-Driven Autonomous Experimentation for Scientific Discovery at the Nanoscale

Abstract Self-driving laboratories or autonomous experimentation are emerging as transformative platforms for accelerating scientific discovery. Bayesian optimization (BO) is among the most widely used machine learning frameworks in self-driving laboratories, but these BO-based f...

Age-related differences in neural activity and functional connectivity during self- and other-referential processing: An EEG study

Research on brain aging has largely focused on neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, mild cognitive impairment, and other forms of cognitive decline. However, relatively few studies have examined the processing of self-related information in healthy older adults. Th...

Spin force from a nitrogen-vacancy ensemble drives a 100-mg levitated resonator

The force experienced by a spin in a magnetic field gradient underlies many proposals for hybrid quantum systems. These include schemes for mechanically mediated quantum gates, spin squeezing, searches for exotic forces, and motional superpositions for probing the interface betwe...

Regulatory language limits satellite-based enforcement in marine protected areas

Abstract The international community has committed to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030, and satellite monitoring can now detect industrial fishing inside marine protected areas (MPAs) at near-global scale. Yet remote detection establishes only a vessel’s identity, position, time,...
