Squeezing the Limits: Hyperons and the Structure of Neutron Stars
![The study of neutron and hyperon star mass-radius relationships reveals a characteristic “softening” of the equation of state with the introduction of hyperons - specifically [latex]\Lambda N[/latex] and [latex]\Lambda\Lambda[/latex] interactions - leading to a reduction in maximum mass, a phenomenon known as the hyperon puzzle, and constrained by observational data from NICER and LIGO/Virgo detections.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.03388v1/x2.png)
New research leverages hypernuclear physics and Bayesian inference to refine our understanding of the forces governing ultra-dense matter inside neutron stars.
Best films released in the UK this month: February 2026
Everyone is talking about the new film adaptation of Wuthering Heights. While Emily Brontë’s classic gothic novel has been made into a movie before, this version promises to be unique. It’s directed by Emerald Fennell, who brought us Saltburn, and features a soundtrack by Charli xcx.
Emmerdale airs emotional Cain Dingle scenes as he bravely reveals cancer diagnosis in ITVX release
In a surprising turn for the ITV drama Emmerdale, Cain Dingle, played by Jeff Hordley, revealed he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer.
You Won’t Believe This Web Company Just Uplisted to the London Stock Exchange!
They announced their grand entrance on February 3, 2026, after a cozy little stint on Aquis. You know, just casually becoming the largest UK public company holding bitcoin after their IPO back in April 2025. No big deal, right?
Entangled Neutrinos and the Quest for New Physics
![The entanglement entropy, capacity of entanglement, and quantum scrambling time were analyzed across four neutrino oscillation scenarios-SO+NO, SO+IO, NSI+NO, and NSI+IO-using best-fit CP-violating phases, revealing how variations in the diagonal Non-Standard Interaction parameter [latex]\left|\epsilon_{ee}-\epsilon_{\mu\mu}\right|[/latex] impact these quantum information metrics at the baselines and energies of the T2K, NOνA, and DUNE experiments.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.03748v1/x36.png)
New research explores how interactions beyond the Standard Model impact the speed of entanglement in neutrino oscillations, potentially revealing hidden signatures in long-baseline experiments.
Elon Musk’s xAI Seeks Human Brain To Decode Crypto Markets
Ah, but fear not! The toil is remote, a digital odyssey, where the brave souls will guide machines through the labyrinth of trading patterns, on-chain signals, and the delicate pirouettes of risk management that traders perform daily. Who knew that teaching AI could be akin to herding cats in a blockchain bazaar?
EastEnders airs deadly cliffhanger for fan-favourite character in upsetting early BBC iPlayer release
The unexpected event happened after Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) realized Nige, who is living with early-onset dementia, was still excited about it, even though it had been rescheduled.
Before the Bang: A Universe Born from Euclidean Space
![The universe is conceptualized as an emergent Lorentzian patch within a purely Riemannian four-dimensional space, where the conventional “big bang” is reinterpreted not as an origin, but as a hypersurface [latex]\Sigma_0[/latex] marking a transition in metric signature, and simplified geometries-dependent on a single spatial coordinate [latex]z[/latex]-ensure emergent spacetimes [latex]{\cal M}_{0\pm}[/latex] adhere to the Copernican principle and exhibit [latex](-,+,+,+)[/latex] signature in asymptotic regions.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.02646v1/bbemergenceplot.jpeg)
A new cosmological model proposes that the Big Bang wasn’t the beginning, but a transition from a fundamentally Euclidean spacetime, offering a potential resolution to the singularity problem.
Black Panther 3’s Rumored Villain Is The Perfect Choice For The Franchise
The character of Achebe, reportedly written specifically for Denzel Washington by director Ryan Coogler, isn’t simply another villain in Wakanda. He represents pure chaos. After dealing with enemies motivated by beliefs, revenge, or national pride, this new type of threat could be exactly what the Black Panther series needs to move forward.
Gold’s Fall, Bitcoin’s Rise? A Dostoevsky Twist
In the hallowed halls of The Rundown, Wood, that architect of the “great acceleration,” weaves her tapestry of AI-driven expenditure, a vision as grand as it is delirious. Here, robotics, energy storage, blockchain, and life sciences converge in a S-curve of chaos, a symphony of progress that only the most deluded could find comforting.
