High-Energy Neutrino Astrophysics

▪ Abstract High-energy (>100 MeV) neutrino astrophysics enters an era of opportunity and discovery as the sensitivity of detectors approaches astrophysically relevant flux levels. We review the major challenges for this emerging field, amon...

The Weak Interaction in Nuclear, Particle and Astrophysics

This book provides insight into concept of the weak interaction and its integration into the conceptual structure of elementary particle physics. It exhibits the important role of the weak interaction in nuclear, particle and astrophysics t...

Numerical Methods in Astrophysics

Numerical Methods in Astrophysics: An Introduction outlines various fundamental numerical methods that can solve gravitational dynamics, hydrodynamics, and radiation transport equations. This resource indicates which methods are most suitab...

The Molecular Astrophysics of Stars and Galaxies

Abstract This book provides a comprehensive survey of modern molecular astrophysics. It includes an introduction to molecular spectroscopy and then addresses the main areas of current molecular astrophysics, including galaxy formation, star...

Advancing Astrophysics with the Square Kilometre Array

In 2014 it was 10 years since the publication of the comprehensive ‘Science with the Square Kilometre Array’ book and 15 years since the first such volume appeared in 1999. In that time numerous and unexpected advances have been made in the...

Atomic Astrophysics and Spectroscopy

Spectroscopy enables the precise study of astronomical objects and phenomena. Bridging the gap between physics and astronomy, this is the first integrated graduate-level textbook on atomic astrophysics. It covers the basics of atomic physic...

Erratum to: Scattering and bound states for the Hulthén potential in a cosmic string background

Identification of periodic density structures in Solar Orbiter data: Helical structures and flux ropes

Context. Quasi-periodic density structures (PDSs) are quasiperiodic variations in the solar wind density that range from a few minutes to a few hours. They are trains of advected density structures with radial length scales LR ≈ 100 − 10 00...

Eclipsing Millisecond Pulsars with He Star Companions

Eclipsing millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are a type of pulsar binaries with close orbits (≲1.0 day). They are important objects for studying the accretion history of neutron stars (NSs), pulsar winds, and the origin of isolated MSPs, etc. Recen...

Discrete Versions of Jensen–Fisher, Fisher and Bayes–Fisher Information Measures of Finite Mixture Distributions

In this work, we first consider the discrete version of Fisher information measure and then propose Jensen–Fisher information, to develop some associated results. Next, we consider Fisher information and Bayes–Fisher information measures fo...

Inference, Prediction, & Entropy-Rate Estimation of Continuous-Time, Discrete-Event Processes

Inferring models, predicting the future, and estimating the entropy rate of discrete-time, discrete-event processes is well-worn ground. However, a much broader class of discrete-event processes operates in continuous-time. Here, we provide...

SN 2023ixf in M101: Physical Parameters from Bolometric Light Curve Modeling

We present new photometric observations of the core-collapse supernova SN 2023ixf occurred in M101, taken with the RC 80 and BRC80 robotic telescopes in Hungary. The initial nickel mass from the late-phase bolometric light curve extending u...

Risk Analysis of Supply Chain Finance under Blockchain Technology - Based on AHP-FCM Model

Applying blockchain technology to supply chain finance is the only way for the in-depth development of supply chain finance. However, increasingly prominent risk issues restrict the stable development of blockchain finance, so it is necessa...

Drivers of municipal waste generation in Nordic countries: panel evidence

Municipal waste generation remains a persistent sustainability challenge, even in countries with strong environmental governance and circular economy ambitions. Yet it remains unclear how affluence, household final consumption expenditure a...

Best practice relief supply for emergency services in a developed economy

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to discuss the challenges inherent in planning and responding to disaster events in a multi-agency context where numerous governmental and non-governmental actors and agencies are involved in the plann...

Machine learning-based dynamic risk measurement for white sugar futures under geopolitical risks

Futures, as significant financial derivatives, play a crucial role in financial markets by fulfilling price discovery functions and providing efficient risk hedging tools. Against the backdrop of geopolitical conflicts, market risk emerges ...

A Software Quality Model Combining Demand and Delivery Perspectives to Ensure Quality in IT Implementations

In this paper we describe a model which fosters the quality of the artefact within software development projects via defined quality gates. In combination with defined roles these quality gates facilitate communication and transparency rega...

Edge-centric connectome-genetic markers of bridging factor to comorbidity between depression and anxiety

Abstract Depression-anxiety comorbidity is commonly attributed to the occurrence of specific symptoms bridging the two disorders. However, the significant heterogeneity of most bridging symptoms presents challenges for psychopathological in...

Digital Transformation and Climate ChangeAwareness: Mediated Impact on Financial Performance via Green Technology SMEs
