Void morphology at the lithium metal‐solid electrolyte contact governs electrochemical contact stability in all‐solid‐state batteries. This work resolves the competing roles of electrochemical reaction, bulk vacancy diffusion, and distinct surface diffusion pathways in dictating the size and morphology evolution of a single void and its transition to a

A Methodological Note on a Stochastic Frontier Model for the Analysis of the Effects of Quality of Irrigation Water on Crop Yields [PDF]
A stochastic frontier model is proposed for analysis of crop yields, which considers the effects of differing quality of irrigation water, in addition to different inputs and factors associated with technical inefficiency of production. The parameters of

Q‐LEAP: Millisecond Hyperdimensional Optimization for Full‐Spectrum Optical Metamaterials
Q‐LEAP integrates physics‐informed residual machine learning with factorization‐machine‐encoded quantum annealing to design full‐spectrum optical metamaterials. It explores a 2108 design space and, in a single 2.56 ms annealing step, reaches 85.83% of the theoretical FoM limit, enabling selective 5‐8 µm emission with 3–5 and 8–14 µm suppression and ∼40×

Technical inefficiency and public capital in US States: A stochastic frontier approach [PDF]
This paper estimates a translog stochastic frontier production function in the analysis of all 48 contiguous U.S. states in the period 1970-1983, to attempt to measure and explain changes in technical efficiency.

Analytical Prediction of Critical Transitions in Oscillator Networks With Non‐Local Links
An analytical framework reveals how global coupling, second‐harmonic strength, noise, and network structure govern oscillator‐based Ising dynamics. Spectral reduction predicts stability boundaries, while Fokker–Planck analysis captures one‐ to two‐cluster transitions and identifies conditions favoring low‐energy configurations.
