Seasonality of sea ice extent and microbarom amplitude at high-latitude IMS infrasound stations

Presentation to be delivered at CTBTO's Science and Technology 2025 conference in Vienna, Austria Sept 2025 - A prior version of this presentation has undergone SNL's IR/Sensitivity Review process (with the following classification: “Unclassified, with no sensitivities, but not authorized for widespread or public release”) and subsequent HQ IA review. All changes since that version have been minor, with no substantive changes to the content or meaning

QCD tree amplitudes on modern GPUs: A case study for novel event generators

For more than a decade the current generation of CPU-based matrix element generators has provided hard scattering events with excellent flexibility and good efficiency.However, they are a bottleneck of current Monte Carlo event generator toolchains, and with the advent of the HL-LHC and more demanding precision requirements, faster matrix elements are needed, especially at intermediate to large jet multiplicities.We present first results of the new BlockGen family of matrix element algorithms, featuring GPU support and novel color treatments, and discuss the best choice to deliver the performance needed for the next generation of accelerated matrix element generators.

Ion-scale Current Structures in Short Large-amplitude Magnetic Structures

Magnetic reconnection is an explosive phenomenon widely happen in plasma environments. Recent studies show that reconnection could occur in the shock transition region. We study thin current layers in the region in front of the shock and find evidence of reconnection. The analysis also shows the possible generation mechanism of the thin current sheet that further enables reconnection. A large-scale wave is further generated, and the thin current sheets are generated through compression or secondary waves. The thin current structures also lead to electron heating.

QCD–Gravity Double Copy in Regge Asymptotics: From \(2\rightarrow n\) Amplitudes to Radiation in Shockwave Collisions

This paper discusses multi-particle production in QCD and in gravity at ultrarelativistic energies, their double-copy relations, and strong parallels in emergent shockwave dynamics. Dispersive techniques are applied to derive the BFKL equation for multi-gluon production in Regge asymptotics. Identical methods apply in gravity and are captured by a gravitational Lipatov equation. The building blocks in both cases are Lipatov vertices and reggeized propagators satisfying double-copy relations; in gravity, Weinberg’s soft theorem is recovered as a limit of the Lipatov framework. BFKL evolution in QCD generates wee parton states of maximal occupancy characterized by an emergent semi-hard saturation scale. Renormalization group equations in the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) EFT describe wee parton correlations and their rapidity evolution. A shockwave picture of deeply inelastic scattering and hadron–hadron collisions follows, with multi-particle production described by Cutkosky’s rules in strong time-dependent fields. Gluon radiation in the CGC EFT has a double copy in gravitational shockwave collisions, with a similar correspondence applicable between gluon and graviton shockwave propagators. Possible extensions of this semi-classical double copy are outlined for computing multi-particle production in gravitational shockwave collisions, self-force and tidal contributions, and classical and quantum noise in the focusing of geodesics.

Simple, one transistor circuit boosts pulse amplitude

Simple circuit that uses a single transistor to accomplish capacitor storage followed by common-base switching supplies a pulse voltage, higher than that normally available from emitter-follower circuits, to drive a 100-watt transmitter.
