Proton High-Order Cumulants in Au+Au Collisions at High Baryon Density from JAM with a Centrality-Independent Framework
arXiv:2606.00786v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The event-by-event higher-order cumulants of conserved quantities such as net-baryon, net-electric charge, and net-strangeness in heavy-ion collisions have been extensively utilized in experimental searches for the QCD critical point, notably in the RHIC-STAR experiment. In this study, we conduct a systematic analysis of higher-order cumulants of proton number distributions in Au+Au collisions at center-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} =...
Husband in ‘au pair affair’ murder case faces sentencing for killing his wife and man he lured from fetish website
Husband in ‘au pair affair’ murder case faces sentencing for killing his wife and man he lured from fetish website The couple’s 4-year-old daughter was home during the killings - Bookmark A Virginia man who killed his wife in an elaborate double murder so that he could be with his family’s Brazilian au pair is set to be sentenced Friday. Brendan Banfield, a former IRS law enforcement officer, claimed that he shot Joseph Ryan after he came across Ryan attacking his wife on the morning of Feb....
US man who plotted with au pair to murder wife given life sentence
Brendan Banfield convicted of killing Christine Banfield and man lured to couple’s Virginia home as fall guyA Virginia man who was having an affair with the family’s Brazilian au pair was sentenced on Friday to life in prison without parole for the murder of his wife and a man who was lured to the couple’s home as a fall guy. Brendan Banfield, a former Internal Revenue Service (IRS) law enforcement officer, claimed he shot Joseph Ryan after he came across Ryan attacking his wife on the...
Evolution of Coronal Mass Ejection Properties through Superposed Epoch Analysis from 0.2 to 2.2 au
Announce Type: new Abstract: Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are explosive and energetic events consisting of strong magnetic structures erupting from the solar corona. We use superposed epoch analysis to investigate the general properties of CMEs as measured {\it in situ} from 0.2 to 2.2 au based on over 1600 events obtained from the HELIO4CAST catalog. We examine the dependence of the CME global properties on solar cycle phase, and compare the CME parameters derived in the active phase (AP)...
Steering Selective Formation and 2D Crystallization of [4]Radialenes on Au(111) via [1+1+1+1] Cycloaddition of Isocyanides and Enantioselective Molecular Recognition
arXiv:2606.08111v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conjugated carbon rings are fundamental skeletons of organic functional materials, and their selective formation is of paramount importance in molecular materials engineering. However, steering the formation and 2D crystallization of conjugated carbon rings on the surface with high chemo- and stereoselectivities remains a great challenge.
Brendan Banfield to be sentenced in elaborate au pair double murder plot
The former IRS agent convicted in a deadly catfishing scheme targeting his wife and a stranger is expected to be sentenced Friday to a mandatory life term in prison. Brendan Banfield, 40, was found guilty in February on two counts of aggravated murder, one count of using a firearm in committing a felony, and child endangerment in the 2023 killings of Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at the Banfields’ home in Herndon, Virginia. Because of the aggravated murder convictions, Banfield is set...

Facial-R1: Aligning Reasoning and Recognition for Facial Emotion Analysis
arXiv:2511.10254v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Facial Emotion Analysis (FEA) extends traditional facial emotion recognition by incorporating explainable, fine-grained reasoning. The task integrates three subtasks: emotion recognition, facial Action Unit (AU) recognition, and AU-based emotion reasoning to model affective states jointly. While recent approaches leverage Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and achieve promising results, they face two critical limitations: (1) hallucinated...
Counterintuitive Magnetic Connectivity and Energetic Particle Flux Differences among Nearby Spacecraft During the 2023 February 24 Solar Energetic Particle Event
arXiv:2606.02445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For solar energetic particles (SEPs), it is generally expected that observers magnetically closer to the eruption source region exhibit higher particle intensities than those poorly connected to the eruption site. However, the 2023 February 24 SEP event departs from this simple picture: Earth and STA, near 1 au, are nominally better connected to the source region, whereas Solar Orbiter (SolO), at 0.77 au but less favorably connected, observed...
New X-ray method captures solid-liquid interfaces and bulk liquids simultaneously
Researchers have developed a method for making simultaneous soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) measurements of solid-liquid interfaces and bulk liquids. By controlling the thickness of the liquid layer, they obtained the O K-edge XAS spectrum of bulk H2O from a liquid H2O layer on a thin Au film using the transmission method, and they used the electron-yield method to obtain the XAS spectrum of the H2O/Au interface by measuring the drain currents from the Au surface following soft...
