AbstractAchieving safe and efficient gene therapy hinges upon the inspection of genomes enclosed within individual nano‐carriers to mitigate potential health risks associated with empty or fragment‐filled vectors. Here solid‐state nanopore sensing is reported for identifications of intermediate adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors in liquid. The method exploits the phenomenon of translocation slowdown induced by the viscosity of salt water‐organic mixtures. This enables real‐time ionic current measurements allowing precise tracking of the electroosmotic flow‐driven motions of recombinant AAV vectors in a nanopore. The resulting ionic signals facilitate discrimination between replicative intermediates carrying ssDNA fragments and its full vector counterparts based on genome length‐derived subtle nanometer differences in the viral diameters. This rapid and non‐destructive means of genome analysis within virus capsids provides a promising avenue toward a robust methodology for ensuring the integrity of AAV vectors before administration.

ABSTRACTThe present study aimed to unveil the gastroprotective potential of Vaccinium macrocarpon (VM) extract and its mechanism of action against indomethacin (INDO)‐induced gastric ulcers in rats. To achieve this goal, rats were pretreated with either omeprazole (20 mg/kg) or VM (100 mg/kg) orally for 14 consecutive days. Gastric tissue samples were collected and various parameters were evaluated to understand the mechanism of VM's action, including the levels of superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, glutathione, CAT and transforming growth factor beta (TGF‐β), as well as the mRNA expression levels of tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 beta, nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) and inhibitor kappa B (IκB). Additionally, the immunopositivity of cyclooxygenase (COX)‐1, COX‐2, PGE2, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and caspase‐3 was assessed. The total amount of phenolic compounds present in the VM extract was high (58.08 µg/mL gallic acid equivalent/mg extract). The healing effect of VM was demonstrated by an increase in the expression of PCNA. Furthermore, the level of TGF‐β was found to increase upon treatment with VM. Analyses of COX‐1, COX‐2 and PGE2 expression in gastric tissue confirmed the gastroprotective effect of VM. Notably, the expression of NF‐κB was markedly reduced, whereas that of IκB was substantially increased. Overall, the findings of this study demonstrate that VM extract has gastroprotective and curative effects against INDO‐induced ulcers through its antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, mucosal regenerative and anti‐apoptotic activities. Therefore, VM may serve as a useful adjuvant treatment for nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs–induced gastric ulcer disease.
“Obvious, Clear, and in Front of Our Eyes”: Defending the Science of Astrology by Means of Experience
Authors: Burnett Charles 
Published: January 2025

AbstractIn premodern Islamic astrology, the demarcation between knowledge gained by experience and theoretical knowledge is difficult to discern. Astrology is often described as a ṣināʿa (craftṣināʿa or profession) rather than an ʿilm (science) and is therefore comparable to other ṣināʿāt (crafts)—such as animal husbandry, midwifery, andnavigation—in which skill is combined with experience (tajriba, experimentum). Common to all these crafts is also the experience of one’s teachers and predecessors. What is added by the astrologers, along with the doctors, is the structured ordering of such experiences in written form and the attempt to explain the experienced phenomena on a theoretical basis. Both astrologers and doctors were subject to examinations by authorities, with the aim of proving that they had scientific knowledge that could be applied in practice. This study focuses on the contribution to the discussion of theory and practice of the Great Introduction toAstrology by Abū Maʿshar (Albumasar, 787–886 CE).
An effective framework for strange metallic transport

Published: January 2025

Abstract
Semi-holography, originally proposed as a model for conducting lattice electrons coupled to a holographic critical sector, leads to an effective theory of non-Fermi liquids with only a few relevant interactions on the Fermi surface in the large N limit. A refined version of such theories has only two effective couplings, which give holographic and Fermi-liquid-like contributions to the self-energy, respectively.We show that a low co-dimension sub-manifold exists in the space of refined semi-holographic theories in which strange metallic behavior is manifested and which can be obtained just by tuning the ratio of the two couplings. On this sub-manifold, the product of the spectral function and the temperature is approximately independent of the critical exponent, the Fermi energy, and the temperature at all frequencies and near the Fermi surface when expressed in terms of suitably scaled momentum and frequency variables. This quasi-universal behavior leads to linear-in-T dc resistivity and Planckian dissipation over a large range of temperatures, and we also obtain T−3 scaling of the Hall conductivity at higher temperatures.The quasi-universal spectral function also fits well with photoemission spectroscopic data without varying the critical exponent with the doping.Combining with the results for optical conductivity, we construct a generalized version of Drude phenomenology for strange-metallic behavior, which satisfies non-trivial consistency tests.Finally, we discuss a possible dynamical mechanism for the fine-tuning of the ratio of the two couplings necessary to realize the strange metallic behavior in a typical state.
Accidental suppression of Wilson coefficients in Higgs coupling

Higgs couplings are essential probes for physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) since they can be modified by new physics, such as through the Higgs portal interaction $$ {\left|H\right|}^2\mathcal{O} $$

. These modifications influence Higgs interactions via dimension-6 operators of the form (∂|H|2)2 and |H|6, which are generally expected to be of comparable size. This paper discusses a phenomenon of accidental suppression, where the |H|6 coupling is significantly smaller than (∂|H|2)2. This suppression, arising from the truncation of the tree-level effective potential, lacks a clear symmetry explanation but persists in portal models. This paper aims to inspire further studies on additional instances of accidental suppression without symmetry explanations or a general framework to characterize such suppression. We also discuss constraints, at the HL-LHC and future colliders, on the Wilson coefficients of the two dimension-6 operators for various benchmark scenarios of the concrete model.
Dihadron correlations in small-x DIS at NLO: transverse momentum dependent fragmentation

Published: January 2025

Abstract
We compute the inclusive dihadron cross-section in Deep Inelastic Scattering at next-to-leading order (NLO) and small x in the Color Glass Condensate. We focus on the kinematic limit where the hadrons are produced at forward rapidities (in the direction of the virtual photon) and back-to-back in the transverse plane. Our calculation demonstrates that the coefficient of the Sudakov double logarithm for this process is $$ -\frac{\alpha_s}{2\pi}\left[{C}_F+\frac{N_c}{2}\right] $$

Barr-Zee diagrams at a high-energy muon collider
Authors: Homiller Samuel , Lodman Jackie , Parikh Aditya , Reece Matthew 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The sensitivity of electron EDM experiments has been increasing at a rapid pace, and could yield indications of new physics in the coming decade. An intriguing possibility is that an EDM signal could be generated by new, electroweak-charged particles at the TeV scale that couple to the Higgs and contribute to the electron EDM at two-loop order via Barr-Zee diagrams. A high-energy muon collider could decisively search for new physics at this scale. In this work, we explore this complementarity between colliders and EDM experiments, and note that Barr-Zee diagrams from the aforementioned particles are closely related to vector-boson scattering processes at a muon collider. These loop corrections lead to kinematic features in the differential cross sections of these processes, dictated by the optical theorem. We demonstrate this connection in the context of the singlet-doublet and doublet-triplet extensions to the SM, explore the detectability of these features at a muon collider experiment, and discuss how these measurements can be used to ascertain the underlying model parameters.

These spectral curves have genus greater than the rank, and so only give a Coulomb branch geometry upon projection to a sublattice of the homology lattice of the curves. We show how to determine the correct sublattice projection, and find that the integrable system curves do not apply to our theories.
Loop-induced masses for the first two generations with optimum flavour violation
Authors: Mohanta Gurucharan , Patel Ketan M. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
A mechanism for the masses of third, second, and first generation charged fermions at the tree, 1-loop, and 2-loop levels, respectively, is proposed. The fermionic self-energy corrections that lead to this arrangement are induced through heavy vector bosons of a new gauged flavour symmetry group GF. It is shown that a single Abelian group suffices as GF. Moreover, the gauge charges are optimized to result in relatively smaller flavour violations in processes involving the first and second generation fermions. The scheme is explicitly implemented on the Standard Model fermions in an anomaly-free manner and is shown to be viable with observed charged fermion masses and quark mixings. Constraints from flavour violations dictate the lower limit on the new physics scale in these types of frameworks. Through optimal flavour violation, it is shown that nearly two orders of magnitude improvement can be achieved on the lower limit, leading to the new physics scale ≥ 103 TeV in this case. Further improvements are possible at the cost of the down quark mass deviating more than 3σ from its value extracted from lattice calculations. Options for inducing tiny masses for light neutrinos are also discussed.
Enumerating 6D supergravities with T ≤ 1
Authors: Hamada Yuta , Loges Gregory J. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The space of 6D supergravities with minimal supersymmetry is greatly constrained by anomaly cancellation. Nevertheless, a large number of models satisfy all low-energy consistency conditions and in this work we make progress towards exhaustively enumerating all anomaly-free models with at most one tensor multiplet. Generalizing previous techniques, we describe a general algorithm using multi-hypergraphs and simplicial complexes to systematically enumerate anomaly-free models with gauge groups of any number of simple factors and with hypermultiplets falling into any representations. Using these new ideas, we obtain a complete list of anomaly-free models for T ≤ 1, the only simplifying assumption being that the gauge group contains no U(1), SU(2), SU(3) or Sp(2) factors. We also study which and how many models in this ensemble satisfy several UV and swampland bounds which have been proposed and previously utilized to great effect, finding that none are ruled out for T = 0 and ≈ 50% are inconsistent with quantum gravity for T = 1.
On measuring distances in the quantum gravity landscape
Authors: Mohseni Amineh , Montero Miguel , Vafa Cumrun , Valenzuela Irene 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
In this note, we propose a generalized notion of distance between vacua in the theory of a scalar field ϕ with scalar potential V (ϕ) coupled to gravity. We propose the normalized tension of domain wall connecting different field values, with a varying normalization relative to a local energy scale, as the distance. We show this definition reproduces the usual moduli space distance for zero potential, as well as the d ∝ |log Λ| behavior with the vacuum energy Λ in the AdS case, previously proposed in the literature. In the case of large AdS we also obtain the expected exponent of mass versus distance in one particular case, when the mass of the light tower is m ~ $$ \sqrt{\Lambda} $$

Scalar radiation zeros at the LHC
Authors: Englert Christoph , Lazanu Andrei , Millington Peter 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
We consider a class of singlet scalar extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics in which the scalar couples only to off-shell states. As a result, low-order tree-level processes involving the singlet scalar vanish, providing a unique phenomenology that may allow to evade existing constraints on new singlet scalar fields. We describe search strategies for such states at the Large Hadron Collider and identify the parameter space that can be explored in the future.
Entanglement entropy of a color flux tube in (2+1)D Yang-Mills theory
Authors: Amorosso Rocco , Syritsyn Sergey , Venugopalan Raju 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
We construct a novel flux tube entanglement entropy (FTE2), defined as the excess entanglement entropy relative to the vacuum of a region of color flux stretching between a heavy quark-anti-quark pair in pure gauge Yang-Mills theory. We show that FTE2 can be expressed in terms of correlators of Polyakov loops, is manifestly gauge-invariant, and therefore free of the ambiguities in computations of the entanglement entropy in gauge theories related to the choice of the center algebra. Employing the replica trick, we compute FTE2 for SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in (2+1)D and demonstrate that it is finite in the continuum limit. We explore the properties of FTE2 for a half-slab geometry, which allows us to vary the width and location of the slab, and the extent to which the slab cross-cuts the color flux tube. Following the intuition provided by computations of FTE2 in (1+1)D, and in a thin string model, we examine the extent to which our FTE2 results can be interpreted as the sum of an internal color entropy and a vibrational entropy corresponding to the transverse excitations of the string.

A Partially Fixed Background Field Gauge
Authors: Thomsen Anders Eller 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
We examine the incorporation of gauge symmetries in the modern effective field theory (EFT) matching paradigm with a particular focus on spontaneously broken symmetries. The presence of gauge symmetries entails the introduction of gauge-fixing terms in matching calculations, which may prevent (partial) cancellation between loops from the underlying theory and those of the EFT, thereby preventing the establishment of a hard-region matching formula. While this is not an issue when using the background field (BF) gauge for unbroken gauge theories, we find ourselves unable to demonstrate the cancellation with the ordinary BF gauge in spontaneously broken gauge theories when the massive vectors are heavy and decouple from the theory. As a convenient alternative, we construct a partially fixed BF gauge that, in addition to being simpler than the ordinary BF gauge, allows us to prove a hard-region matching formula.
Reflected entropy in random tensor networks. Part III. Triway cuts
Authors: Akers Chris , Faulkner Thomas , Lin Simon , Rath Pratik 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
For general random tensor network states at large bond dimension, we prove that the integer Rényi reflected entropies (away from phase transitions) are determined by minimal triway cuts through the network. This generalizes the minimal cut description of bipartite entanglement for these states. A natural extrapolation away from integer Rényi parameters, suggested by the triway cut problem, implies the holographic conjecture SR = 2EW, where SR is the reflected entropy and EW is the entanglement wedge cross-section. Minimal triway cuts can be formulated as integer programs which cannot be relaxed to find a dual maximal flow/bit-thread description. This sheds light on the gap between the existence of tripartite entanglement in holographic states and the bipartite entanglement structure motivated by bit-threads. In particular, we prove that the Markov gap that measures tripartite entanglement is lower bounded by the integrality gap of the integer program that computes the triway cut.
Dietary BergaPur® supplementation enhanced the hematological, immune, biochemical, and antioxidative reactions of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus

Abstract
The existing trial investigated the effects of supplementing the diet of Nile tilapia with BergaPur® on the hematology, immune response, biochemical factors, and antioxidative capacity. Four groups of fish with an average weight of 10.0 ± 0.5 g received BergaPur®, de-oiled phospholipid complex at a rate of 0 (control), 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 g/kg diet for 9 weeks. Sampling included blood, serum, and liver samples from the four groups at the end of each 3 weeks for a 9 weeks total experimental period. Hematologic readings, serum biochemical, and oxidative parameters were investigated. Findings included a significant (P < 0.05) hematology augmentation (corpuscular Hb, packed cell volume, leukocytic, monocytic, and lymphocytic counts), and a remarked increased (P < 0.05) serum proteins (albumin, globulin, and total) were recorded in BergaPur® groups. Also, AST and ALT levels decreased significantly (P < 0.05), while glucose levels increased significantly (P < 0.05) in BergaPur® groups at all sampling points. Immune (phagocytosis and lysozyme activity) and antioxidant (SOD, GPx, and CAT) parameters increased significantly (P < 0.05) in BergaPur® supplemented groups, compared to the control, while MDA level decreased obviously in the incorporated groups over the control. Our findings verified the positive effects of BergaPur® on the hematological, immune, and biochemical parameters of O Oreochromis niloticus, with a suggestive concentration of 2 g/kg diet.
