Key Points

Half of Australian Adults Have Never Sought Retirement Advice Australians are sleepwalking into their retirement, according to new research. Only half of adults have accessed any source of retirement information, a survey by the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia shows. Meanwhile, younger people are 10 times more likely than those over 65 to turn to social media for guidance — despite it ranking as the country’s least-trusted source of retirement advice.

A Scalable Time-Based Molecular Dynamics Approach for Simulating Single-Bubble Sonoluminescence

arXiv:2606.25219v2 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a scalable time-based molecular dynamics (TBMD) framework for simulating single-bubble sonoluminescence within a hybrid continuum-MD formulation. Unlike prior event-based approaches, which model gas dynamics through instantaneous hard-sphere collisions, the present method integrates continuous Lennard-Jones and damped shifted force Coulomb interactions at each timestep, enabling self-consistent tracking of ionization state and...

Supervised Reinforcement Learning for the Coordination of Distributed Energy Resources

new Abstract: The increasing integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) is crucial for power system decarbonization, yet unlocking DERs' flexibility is challenged by their inherent uncertainties and modelling complexity. As traditional optimization methods struggle with such uncertainty and complexity of DERs, reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising alternative for DER management. However, standard RL methods suffer from sample inefficiency and sub-optimality when...

Conformal Orbit-Valid Trust Horizons for Equivariant World Models

arXiv:2606.24946v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learned world models are useful only over horizons on which their rollout error remains controlled. We study trust-horizon certification for latent world models with known group symmetries. Given a one-step latent residual and a finite-time expansion estimate, we form a raw horizon curve and calibrate it with a split-conformal multiplicative factor.
