3 bright planets light up June's night sky — Here's where and when to look
3 bright planets light up June's night sky — Here's where and when to look This is the month of the "Great Celestial Summit Meeting" between a crescent moon, three bright planets and two bright stars. The stars (Pollux and Castor) and planets (Venus, Jupiter and Mercury) will be arrayed across the west-northwest sky during the first half of the month, with the moon moving in to join them during the evenings of June 16 and June 17. The most amazing sight will be provided by Venus and Jupiter...
'Off Campus' star Ella Bright addresses age concerns over intimate scenes in provocative series
Prime Video's latest romance series, "Off Campus," may be the hottest show in pop culture at the moment. The show's lead, Ella Bright, is taking it into her own hands to clear up viewer questions — specifically those questioning the near 10-year age gap with her co-star Belmont Cameli, 28, and partial nude scenes. On Tuesday, Bright, 19, was a guest on the "Not Skinny But Not Fat" podcast and admitted she never hesitated on the role after reading the script.

Brightness 'gap' in ancient star cluster reveals missing red dwarfs
Brightness 'gap' in ancient star cluster reveals missing red dwarfs Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Scientists from the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Maryland, sought to study one stellar subject and ended up finding something even more exciting. The team's results published today in Astronomy & Astrophysics. Using data from the European Space Agency's (ESA's) Euclid space telescope and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, the team planned to...
Lighting the Way for BRIGHT: Reproducible Baselines with Anserini, Pyserini, and RankLLM
arXiv:2509.02558v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Retrieval benchmarks for large language models (LLMs) should reflect the long, reasoning-intensive queries typical of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). We present a systematic study of BRIGHT, a reasoning-focused retrieval benchmark, along with strong, reproducible reference methods integrated into Anserini, Pyserini, and RankLLM. We evaluate lexical, sparse, dense, and fusion-based retrievers, as well as LLM rerankers, under long-query...
An ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductor photodetector for linear measurement of bright sub-bandgap light
arXiv:2606.07807v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semiconductor photodetectors are conventionally optimized for sensing weak optical signals, and they typically saturate at low-to-moderate light intensity. Here, we demonstrate sub-bandgap AlN photodetectors that exhibit non-saturating linear response to ultra-bright blue light exceeding 40 $\mathrm{W/cm^2}$. The photodetector further shows undistorted linear response at elevated temperature, up to at least 300 $\mathrm{^\circ C}$. This...
Anomalous Autler-Townes Splitting in Resonant Multiphoton Ionization Driven by Bright Squeezed Vacuum
Announce Type: new Abstract: Bright squeezed vacuum (BSV) light has a vanishing mean optical electric field yet can strongly enhance strong-field nonlinear responses beyond the conventional semiclassical paradigm. Here we examine this scenario in the light-matter strong-coupling regime by investigating resonant multiphoton ionization of atoms driven by BSV, using a fully quantum treatment of both the electron and the field.

Cobolli sees bright future despite French Open final heartbreak PARIS, June 7 : Flavio Cobolli left everything on Court Philippe Chatrier as he chased a first Grand Slam title on Sunday, but the Italian admitted the pressure of playing on the biggest stage ultimately proved decisive in a heartbreaking defeat. The 24-year-old arrived at Roland Garros having never gone beyond the quarter-finals of a major tournament and left it as a Grand Slam runner-up, his reputation transformed despite...
Male bowerbirds hope to dazzle females with bright human-made items
Male bowerbirds are notorious for their complex mating rituals. They build intricate tunnels out of twigs—the bowers from which they get their name—and then decorate them with random colorful items gleaned from the environment. When a female of the species shows up to check out a male's fancy digs, the male tosses his shiniest objects in her direction and shows off his plumage in hopes of impressing her.
