Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Revisiting the equation of state of dark energy from DESI BAO with SNe Ia and CMB
European Physical Journal C: Particles and FieldsThe Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) have recently shown a mild preference for dynamical dark energy over the standard $$\mathrm \Lambda $$ Λ CDM model. In this paper, we analyze the $$w_0w_a$$

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Parallelized inference for gravitational-wave astronomy [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 Bayesian inference is the workhorse of gravitational-wave astronomy, for example, determining the mass and spins of merging black holes, revealing the neutron star equation of state, and unveiling the population properties of compact binaries. The science enabled by these inferences comes with a computational cost that can limit the questions we are ...

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract This study provides the first petrographic, crystallographic, and chemical comparison between El Médano 300 (EM 300) and Northwest Africa 8155 (NWA 8155), two particular IAB‐ungrouped iron meteorites. Both contain exceptionally large graphite nodules and “flowers”, providing unique insights into carbon behavior in metallic melts and cooling ...

Evidence for a Correlation between Binary Black Hole Mass Ratio and Black Hole Spins
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The astrophysical origins of the binary black hole systems seen with gravitational waves are still not well understood. However, features in the distribution of black hole masses, spins, redshifts, and eccentricities provide clues into how these systems ...

A Magnetospheric Dichotomy for Pulsars with Extreme Inclinations
Universe, 2021 In this work, we expand on a comment by Lyne et al. (2017), that intermittent pulsars tend to congregate near a stripe in the logarithmic period versus period-derivative diagram.
