Ignore the favorites and back these longshots in the 2026 RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto this week
Because it's the week before another national open, the American one, the PGA TOUR's 2026 RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto has a stronger field this year than in previous seasons. Featuring three Englishmen as the betting favorites, Matt Fitzpatrick, Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood, eight players in the top 20 of the Official World Golf Rankings are teeing it up at TPC Toronto as a tune-up for next week's U.S. Open. Unfortunately, this semi-impressive field is lost on this cupcake course.
GPU optical photon Monte Carlo for noble liquid detectors: validation against Geant4 in a large liquid argon TPC benchmark
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Optical photon Monte Carlo simulation is a computational bottleneck for noble liquid Time Projection Chambers. Design studies require repeated, geometry dependent simulations of timing, wavelength shifting, and optical response, while reconstruction and particle identification workflows need labeled optical datasets. We present Simphony, a GPU optical simulation tool, formerly EIC-Opticks, built on Opticks with CUDA and NVIDIA OptiX. Simphony implements a GPU...

Development of a Multi-Purpose Optical TPC for Neutron-Induced Reaction Studies at SARAF
arXiv:2605.31382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neutron-induced reactions play a central role in stellar and Big Bang nucleosynthesis models. Yet many of the cross sections remain poorly constrained at astrophysically relevant energies. To address these needs, we are developing a multi-purpose Optical Time Projection Chamber (OTPC) optimized for precision neutron-reaction studies at the Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility (SARAF)
Experimental Characterization of Bulk Micromegas for Development of Active Target Time Projection Chamber for Nuclear Astrophysics Studies
arXiv:2602.21238v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A Micromegas-based active target Time Projection Chamber, namely Saha Active Target TPC (SAT-TPC), is under development at Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics for its application in nuclear astrophysics experiment to measure the branching ratio of the direct and sequential decay of the Hoyle state of $^{12}$C. A bulk Micromegas was characterized to optimize its operating parameters and its performance for $\alpha$-particle tracking was...
How to bet the RBC Canadian Open: Can Rai's elite ...
TPC Toronto (North) is about creating birdie opportunities, and that's the separator this week at the RBC Canadian Open. Last year, Ryan Fox won the tournament at -18, and at this tournament you need a player that has distance and solid iron play, gives himself birdie looks and makes those shots when chances are given. The course has four reachable par 5s and numerous approaches from 175-plus.
He-CF4-CH4 ternary mixtures as target gas for the CYGNO directional dark matter experiment
new Abstract: The CYGNO collaboration is advancing a high-resolution optical Time Projection Chamber (TPC) for directional dark matter searches and solar neutrino spectroscopy at LNGS. The detector uses a He-40%CF4 gas mixture at atmospheric pressure and a triple-GEM cascade for ionization signal amplification. Scintillation light from GEM electron avalanches is read out using sCMOS cameras, enabling high sensitivity to interactions in the few keV range, alongside precise ionization event...
Improved Torn Paper Coding via Local Alignment
arXiv:2605.23076v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In the torn paper channel, a transmitted codeword is broken at random locations into fragments that arrive at the decoder in an unordered manner. A central theoretical challenge within this model is global alignment -- the task of determining each fragment's original position -- in order to faithfully reconstruct the entire codeword. Prior work by Shomorony and Vahid introduced an interleaved-pilot scheme that successfully achieved a...
SpecDB: LLM-Generated Customized Databases via Feature-Oriented Decomposition
arXiv:2605.31097v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mainstream relational databases ship a uniform feature set across deployments, although individual workloads exercise only a fraction of the available subsystems. We investigate whether a database can instead be generated on demand with a feature set matched to the target workload. We present SpecDB, a system that uses large language models (LLMs) to synthesize customized relational databases.
Test-Time Optimization of Physical Query Plans with LLMs
arXiv:2602.10387v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Traditional query optimization relies on cost-based optimizers that estimate execution cost (e.g., runtime, memory, and I/O) using predefined heuristics and statistical models. Improving these requires substantial engineering effort, yet they often cannot exploit semantic correlations in queries and schemas that could enable better physical plans. Large language models (LLMs), however, can reason about column semantics, value distributions,...
