New research demonstrates how a sophisticated gauge theory framework, leveraging ‘ersatz gravity’ and double-copy techniques, can reproduce key features of gravitational systems, including black hole thermodynamics.
Before he became a famous NFL quarterback and led his team, the New England Patriots, to the Super Bowl on February 8th, he was simply a young boy with a passion for football. And Ann Michael was with him throughout his journey.
The 2026 Winter Olympics are underway in northern Italy, featuring 116 medal events across Milan, the mountain town of Cortina d’Ampezzo, and other beautiful locations. This year’s Games are especially heartwarming, with many couples competing – some as teammates and others in different sports.
![The study demonstrates that a variational approximation [latex]\text{VA}[/latex] effectively captures the broad dynamics of unstable vortices-specifically, regimes of macroscopic self-trapping at weaker coupling and Josephson oscillations at stronger coupling-though it fails to predict instability onsets like vortex splitting or the development of crescent-shaped distortions, suggesting the model accurately reflects the <i>qualitative</i> behavior despite limitations in forecasting precise structural failures.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.05001v1/x45.png)
New research delves into the dynamics of quantum tunneling between superfluids in Bose-Einstein condensates, revealing insights into the behavior of quantum droplets and vortices.
Starting February 10th, Venus, the planet associated with love and enjoyment, moves into Pisces, a sensitive and compassionate sign. This shift encourages us to be more tender, feel more romantic, and connect with our emotions. We may find ourselves reflecting on the past, trusting our gut feelings, and being moved by stories that resonate with what we’re feeling inside.
Ahmadi describes her character, Mehreen Askari-Evans, as unlike any role she’s played before. Mehreen is an intelligence operative brought in to replace John Hughes (played by Shaun Evans) when he becomes the subject of an internal investigation. Their first encounter is filled with tension and intrigue, including a challenging line of questioning about Mehreen’s background – which her character skillfully handles.
This review delves into the holographic properties of black branes within a non-minimal Einstein-Yang-Mills framework, examining how modifications to gravity impact key transport coefficients.
Just be ready to dance.
In the new series, Evan is joined by Romola Garai, who plays John’s wife, Claire. Zahra Ahmadi joins the cast as Mehreen, an intelligence officer brought in to cover John’s work when he faces an internal investigation.
Because of this, the show needed to showcase incredible settings. These locations had to feel like both a beautiful paradise at the start, and a frightening, dangerous place as the boys lose their sense of order.
