Momentum-space Langevin dynamics of holographic Wilsonian RG flow: self-interacting massive scalar field with marginal deformation

Abstract We explore the mathematical relationship between the holographic Wilsonian renormalization group (HWRG) and stochastic quantization(SQ) motivated by the similarity of the monotonicity in RG flow with Langevin dynamics of non-equili...

Quenching factors for Na recoils as a function of Tl dopant concentrations in NaI(Tl) crystals

Abstract Thallium-doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) scintillation detectors play an important role in the field of direct dark matter (DM) searches. The DAMA/LIBRA experiment stands out for its reported observation of an annually modulating DM-...

Where Galaxies Go to Die: The Environments of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at 3 < z < 5

At low redshift, massive quiescent galaxies (MQGs) are most frequently found in massive, rich galaxy clusters, but at high redshift the trend is less clear. Here, we present spectroscopic evidence of the effects of environment on the format...

Intergalactic Wandering Stars in the Local Universe: Theoretical Predictions for Their Distance and Luminosity Distribution

Intergalactic wandering stars (IWSs) within 10 Mpc remain a poorly explored area of astronomy. Such stars, if they exist, are supposed to be wandering objects as they are not bound by the gravitational potential of any galaxy. We set out to...

For All Humankind: Peaceful, Ethical, Cooperative, and Curiosity‐Driven Space Science and Space Weather Research

Abstract Are we moving into a new reality where the next human stepping onto a different world will utter “That's one small step for me, a giant leap for my country”? Is further tightening Heliophysics and space weather research to military...

Entropy-Based Portfolio Optimization in Cryptocurrency Markets: A Unified Maximum Entropy Framework

Traditional mean–variance portfolio optimization proves inadequate for cryptocurrency markets, where extreme volatility, fat-tailed return distributions, and unstable correlation structures undermine the validity of variance as a comprehens...

Research on the Longitudinal Section of River Restoration Using Probabilistic Theory

Since the 1960s, many rivers have been destroyed as a consequence of the process of rapid urbanization. As accurate figures are important to repair rivers, there have been many research reports on methods to obtain the exact river slope and...

Supersymmetric domain walls in 7D maximal gauged supergravity

Abstract We give a large class of supersymmetric domain walls in maximal seven-dimensional gauged supergravity with various types of gauge groups. Gaugings are described by components of the embedding tensor transforming in representations ...

Scalar leptoquark effects on $$B \rightarrow \mu \bar{\nu }$$ B→μν¯ decay

Abstract Purely leptonic B meson decays provide unique probes for physics Beyond the Standard Model. We study the impact of a scalar leptoquark, $$S_1$$ S1 , on $$B \rightarrow \mu \bar{\nu }$$ B→μν¯ decay. We find that, for $$m_{S_1}\sim 1...

An Investigation of Disk Thickness in M51 from Hα, Paα, and Mid-infrared Power Spectra

Power spectra (PS) of high-resolution images of M51 (NGC 5194) taken with the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have been examined for evidence of disk thickness in the form of a change in slope between large ...

How to Be a Copenhagenistic-QBistic Everettist

The measurement problem in quantum mechanics (QM) is related to the inability to include learning about the properties of a quantum system by an agent in the formalism of quantum theory. It includes questions about the physical processes be...

On the Formation of Retrograde S-type Planets in Binaries with a Polar Circumbinary Disk

Retrograde S-type planets have been observed in several binary systems, yet their formation pathway remains poorly understood. With high-resolution hydrodynamic simulations, we demonstrate that a polar circumbinary disk around an eccentric,...

WORKPLANS: Workshop on Planetary Nebula Observations

This workshop is the second of the WORKPLANS series, which we started in 2016. The main goal of WORKPLANS is to build up a network of planetary nebulae (PNe) experts to address the main open questions in the field of PNe research. The speci...

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics in Astrophysics

This review discusses smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) in the astrophysical context, with a focus on inviscid gas dynamics. The particle-based SPH technique allows an intuitive and simple formulation of hydrodynamics that has excellent...

The Role of Mixing in Astrophysics

The role of hydrodynamic mixing in astrophysics is reviewed, emphasizing its connections with laser physics experiments and inertial confinement fusion. Computer technology now allows us to use two-dimensional simulations, with complex micr...

Nuclear structure and astrophysics

The nuclear structure in regions of the Segré chart which are of astrophysical importance is reviewed. The main emphasis is put on those nuclei that are relevant for stellar nucleosynthesis in fusion processes, and in slow neutron capture, ...
