A practical experiment on supply-chain security using reproducible builds (⭐ 160)
Promising results using a TENS machine...
Hello friends! For the last week or two, I've been experimenting with using a TENS machine based on a few research papers I'd read, namely these two: [Transcutaneous Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulati...
Iterative HOMER with uncertainties
We present iHOMER, an iterative version of the HOMER method to extract Lund fragmentation functions from experimental data. Through iterations, we address the information gap between latent and observable phase spaces and systematically remove bias....
FlightScope: An Experimental Comparative Review of Aircraft Detection Algorithms in Satell…
Object detection in remotely sensed satellite pictures is fundamental in many fields such as biophysical, and environmental monitoring. While deep learning algorithms are constantly evolving, they have been mostly implemented and tested on popular gr...
A Small-gap Effective-Temperature Model of Transient Shear Band Formation During Flow
Recent Couette-cell shear experiments of carbopol gels have revealed the formation of a transient shear band before reaching the steady state, which is characterized by homogeneous flow. This shear band is observed in the small-gap limit where the sh...
Cratering Experiments on the Self Armoring of Coarse-Grained Granular Targets
Recently published crater statistics on the small asteroids 25143 Itokawa and 433 Eros show a significant depletion of craters below approx. 100 m in diameter. Possible mechanisms that were brought up to explain this lack of craters were seismic crat...
Packed bed thermal energy storage for waste heat recovery in the iron and steel industry:…
Waste heat recovery in the energy intensive industry is one of the most important measures for the mitigation of climate change. The utilization of just a fraction of the theoretically available waste heat potential would lead to a significant reduct...
Multiple images storage and frequency conversion in a cold atomic ensemble
The strong demand for quantum memory, a key building block of quantum network, has inspired new methodologies and led to experimental progress for quantum storage. The use of quantum memory for spatial multimode or image storage could dramatically in...
Convinced my husband to try a house cleaning service for 3 months as an experiment. Heres…
So me and my husband have been fighting about chores for literally our entire marriage. I do most of it and resent him. He thinks he helps more than he does. Classic stuff. 3 months ago I proposed we...

Neutron Star Extreme Matter Observatory: A kilohertz-band gravitational-wave detector in t…
Gravitational waves from coalescing neutron stars encode information about nuclear matter at extreme densities, inaccessible by laboratory experiments. The late inspiral is influenced by the presence of tides, which depend on the neutron star equatio...
Where will a pen fall to?
We propose a simple experiment that everybody can carry out just while reading this paper. The only thing we need is a pen or a pencil and a finger. The dynamics of the falling pen, which is in touch with the finger, depends essentially on the init...
Examination and experimental constraints of the stellar reaction rate factor $N_A < σv >$…
The $^{18}$Ne($α$,$p$)$^{21}$Na reaction is one key for the break-out from the hot CNO-cycles to the $rp$-process. Recent papers have provided reaction rate factors $N_A < σv >$ which are discrepant by at least one order of magnitude. The compatibi...

Aerial Grasping: Modeling and Control of a Flying Hand
In this paper, we present the design, simulation and experimental validation of a control architecture for a flying hand, i.e., a system made of an unmanned aerial vehicle, a robotic manipulator and a gripper, which is grasping an object fixed on a v...
Who is Undercover? Guiding LLMs to Explore Multi-Perspective Team Tactic in the Game
Large Language Models (LLMs) are pivotal AI agents in complex tasks but still face challenges in open decision-making problems within complex scenarios. To address this, we use the language logic game ``Who is Undercover?'' (WIU) as an experimental p...
Integration of a 2D Periodic Nanopattern Into Thin Film Polycrystalline Silicon Solar Cell…
The integration of two-dimensional (2D) periodic nanopattern defined by nanoimprint lithography and dry etching into aluminum induced crystallization (AIC) based polycrystalline silicon (Poly-Si) thin film solar cells is investigated experimentally....
The Same Analysis Approach: Practical protection against the pitfalls of novel neuroimagin…
Standard neuroimaging data analysis based on traditional principles of experimental design, modelling, and statistical inference is increasingly complemented by novel analysis methods, driven e.g. by machine learning methods. While these novel approa...
How to construct the proper gauge-invariant density matrix in steady-state nonequilibrium:…
Experiments observing spin density and spin currents (responsible for, e.g., spin-transfer torque) in spintronic devices measure only the nonequilibrium contributions to these quantities, typically driven by injecting unpolarized charge current or by...
