Exploring New Physics with PandaX-4T Low Energy Electronic Recoil Data

New particles beyond the standard model of particle physics, such as axions, can be effectively searched through their interactions with electrons. We use the large liquid xenon detector PandaX-4T to search for novel electronic recoil signals induced by solar axions, neutrinos with anomalous magnetic moment, axionlike particles, dark photons, and light fermionic dark matter. A detailed background model is established using the latest datasets with 1.54 $\rm ton \cdot yr$ exposure. No significant excess above the background has been observed, and we have obtained competitive constraints for axion couplings, neutrino magnetic moment, and fermionic dark matter interactions.

A Block Term Decomposition Model Based Algorithm for Tensor Completion of Multidimensional Harmonic Signals

We consider tensor data completion of an incomplete observation of multidimensional harmonic (MH) signals. Unlike existing tensor-based techniques for MH retrieval (MHR), which mostly adopt the canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) to model the simple "one-to-one" correspondence among harmonics across difference modes, we herein use the more flexible block term decomposition (BTD) model that can be used to describe the complex mutual correspondences among several groups of harmonics across different modes. An optimization principle that aims to fit the BTD model in the least squares sense, subject to rank minimization of hankelized MH components, is set up for the tensor completion task, and an algorithm based on alternating direction method of multipliers is proposed, of which the effectiveness and applicability are validated through both numerical simulations and an application in Sub-6GHz channel state information (CSI) completion.

A parametric non-negative coupled canonical polyadic decomposition algorithm for hyperspectral super-resolution

Recently, coupled tensor decomposition has been widely used in data fusion of a hyperspectral image (HSI) and a multispectral image (MSI) for hyperspectral super-resolution (HSR). However, exsiting works often ignore the inherent non-negative (NN) property of the image data, or impose the NN constraint via hard-thresholding which may interfere with the optimization procedure and cause the method to be sub-optimal. As such, we propose a novel NN coupled canonical polyadic decomposition (NN-C-CPD) algorithm, which makes use of the parametric method and nonlinear least squares (NLS) framework to impose the NN constraint into the C-CPD computation. More exactly, the NN constraint is converted into the squared relationship between the NN entries of the factor matrices and a set of latent parameters. Based on the chain rule for deriving the derivatives, the key entities such as gradient and Jacobian with regards to the latent parameters can be derived, thus the NN constraint is naturally integrated without interfering with the optimization procedure. Experimental results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed NN-C-CPD algorithm in HSR applications.

CoT-Driven Framework for Short Text Classification: Enhancing and Transferring Capabilities from Large to Smaller Model

Short Text Classification (STC) is crucial for processing and understanding the brief but substantial content prevalent on contemporary digital platforms. The STC encounters difficulties in grasping the semantic and syntactic intricacies, an issue that is apparent in traditional pre-trained language models. Although Graph Convolutional Networks enhance performance by integrating external knowledge bases, these methods are limited by the quality and extent of the knowledge applied. Recently, the emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Chain-of-Thought (CoT) has significantly improved the performance of complex reasoning tasks. However, some studies have highlighted the limitations of their application in fundamental NLP tasks. Consequently, this study first employs CoT to investigate and enhance the capabilities of LLMs in STC tasks. We propose the Syntactic and Semantic Enrichment CoT (SSE-CoT) method, effectively decomposing the STC tasks into four distinct steps: (i) essential concept identification, (ii) common-sense knowledge retrieval, (iii) text rewriting, and (iv) classification. Furthermore, recognizing resource constraints in sectors like finance and healthcare, we then introduce the CoT-Driven Multi-Task Learning (CDMT) framework to extend these capabilities to smaller models. This framework begins by extracting rationales from LLMs and subsequently fine-tunes smaller models to optimize their performance. Extensive experimentation across six short-text benchmarks validated the efficacy of the proposed methods. In particular, SSE-CoT achieved state-of-the-art performance with substantial improvements on all datasets, particularly on the Ohsumed and TagMyNews datasets.

DVM: Towards Controllable LLM Agents in Social Deduction Games

Large Language Models (LLMs) have advanced the capability of game agents in social deduction games (SDGs). These games rely heavily on conversation-driven interactions and require agents to infer, make decisions, and express based on such information. While this progress leads to more sophisticated and strategic non-player characters (NPCs) in SDGs, there exists a need to control the proficiency of these agents. This control not only ensures that NPCs can adapt to varying difficulty levels during gameplay, but also provides insights into the safety and fairness of LLM agents. In this paper, we present DVM, a novel framework for developing controllable LLM agents for SDGs, and demonstrate its implementation on one of the most popular SDGs, Werewolf. DVM comprises three main components: Predictor, Decider, and Discussor. By integrating reinforcement learning with a win rate-constrained decision chain reward mechanism, we enable agents to dynamically adjust their gameplay proficiency to achieve specified win rates. Experiments show that DVM not only outperforms existing methods in the Werewolf game, but also successfully modulates its performance levels to meet predefined win rate targets. These results pave the way for LLM agents' adaptive and balanced gameplay in SDGs, opening new avenues for research in controllable game agents.

Phase-field lattice Boltzmann method for two-phase electrohydrodynamic flows induced by Onsager-Wien effect

The leaky dielectric model is widely used in simulating two-phase electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flows. One critical issue with this classical model is the assumption of Ohmic conduction, which makes it inadequate for describing the newly discovered EHD flows caused by the Onsager-Wien effect [Ryu et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 104502 (2010)]. In this paper, we proposed a phase-field lattice Boltzmann (LB) method for two-phase electrohydrodynamic flows induced by the Onsager-Wien effect. In this scheme, two LB equations are employed to resolve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and the conservative Allen-Cahn equation, while another three LB equations are used for solving the charge conservation equations and the electric potential equation. After we validate the developed LB method, we perform a series of numerical simulations of droplet deformation under EHD conduction phenomena. Our numerical results indicate that the presence of the Onsager-Wien effect has a significant impact on droplet deformation and charge distribution. Also, it is interesting to note that, apart from the heterocharge layers near the electrodes, a charge cloud may form between the droplet interface and the electrode in some cases. To thoroughly understand the droplet dynamics, the effects of the reference length d, the applied voltage Δψ, the permittivity ratio εr, and the ionic mobility ratio μr on droplet deformation and charge distribution are all investigated in detail.

Modelling anisotropic Cahn-Hilliard equation with the lattice Boltzmann method

The anisotropic Cahn-Hilliard equation is often used to model the formation of faceted pyramids on nanoscale crystal surfaces. In comparison to the isotropic Cahn-Hilliard model, the nonlinear terms associated with strong anisotropic coefficients present challenges for developing an effective numerical scheme. In this work, we propose a multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann method to solve the anisotropic Cahn-Hilliard equation. To this end, we reformulate the original equation into a nonlinear convection-diffusion equation with source terms. Then the modified equilibrium distribution function and source terms are incorporated into the computations. Through Chapman-Enskog analysis, it successfully recovers the macroscopic governing equation. To validate the proposed approach, we perform numerical simulations, including cases like droplet deformation and spinodal decomposition. These results consistent with available works, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Furthermore, the simulations demonstrate that the model adheres to the energy dissipation law, further highlighting the effectiveness of the developed lattice Boltzmann method.

MHNet: Multi-view High-order Network for Diagnosing Neurodevelopmental Disorders Using Resting-state fMRI

Background: Deep learning models have shown promise in diagnosing neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) like ASD and ADHD. However, many models either use graph neural networks (GNN) to construct single-level brain functional networks (BFNs) or employ spatial convolution filtering for local information extraction from rs-fMRI data, often neglecting high-order features crucial for NDD classification. Methods: We introduce a Multi-view High-order Network (MHNet) to capture hierarchical and high-order features from multi-view BFNs derived from rs-fMRI data for NDD prediction. MHNet has two branches: the Euclidean Space Features Extraction (ESFE) module and the Non-Euclidean Space Features Extraction (Non-ESFE) module, followed by a Feature Fusion-based Classification (FFC) module for NDD identification. ESFE includes a Functional Connectivity Generation (FCG) module and a High-order Convolutional Neural Network (HCNN) module to extract local and high-order features from BFNs in Euclidean space. Non-ESFE comprises a Generic Internet-like Brain Hierarchical Network Generation (G-IBHN-G) module and a High-order Graph Neural Network (HGNN) module to capture topological and high-order features in non-Euclidean space. Results: Experiments on three public datasets show that MHNet outperforms state-of-the-art methods using both AAL1 and Brainnetome Atlas templates. Extensive ablation studies confirm the superiority of MHNet and the effectiveness of using multi-view fMRI information and high-order features. Our study also offers atlas options for constructing more sophisticated hierarchical networks and explains the association between key brain regions and NDD. Conclusion: MHNet leverages multi-view feature learning from both Euclidean and non-Euclidean spaces, incorporating high-order information from BFNs to enhance NDD classification performance.

RTLSquad: Multi-Agent Based Interpretable RTL Design

Optimizing Register-Transfer Level (RTL) code is crucial for improving hardware PPA performance. Large Language Models (LLMs) offer new approaches for automatic RTL code generation and optimization. However, existing methods often lack decision interpretability (sufficient, understandable justification for decisions), making it difficult for hardware engineers to trust the generated results, thus preventing these methods from being integrated into the design process. To address this, we propose RTLSquad, a novel LLM-Based Multi-Agent system for interpretable RTL code generation. RTLSquad divides the design process into exploration, implementation, and verification & evaluation stages managed by specialized agent squads, generating optimized RTL code through inter-agent collaboration, and providing decision interpretability through the communication process. Experiments show that RTLSquad excels in generating functionally correct RTL code and optimizing PPA performance, while also having the capability to provide decision paths, demonstrating the practical value of our system.

Strong superconducting pairing strength and pseudogap features in a putative multiphase heavy-fermion superconductor CeRh2As2 by soft point-contact spectroscopy

CeRh2As2 is a newly discovered candidate of multiphase heavy-fermion superconductor (Tc=0.3 K) with intriguing physical properties. Here, we employ soft point-contact spectroscopy to investigate its energy gap behaviors in both the normal and superconducting states. The differential conductance below Tc reveals an estimated superconducting energy gap of 2ΔSC=0.24 meV and thus an extremely strong superconducting pairing strength 2ΔSC/kBTc=8.8, which is comparable to those of cuprates and iron-based high-Tc superconductors as well as infinite-layer nickelates. Above Tc, a well-defined pseudogap feature is manifested as a V-shaped dip in the differential conductance spanning an energy scale of 2Δg=0.95-3.0 meV. The pseudogap feature persists to the highest characteristic temperature of Tg=8-9 K and is gradually suppressed by magnetic field of Bg=9.0T regardless of its direction relative to the crystallographic axes. The observation of pseudogap features prior to the superconducting phase transition enriches the phase diagram of CeRh2As2 and provides a novel platform to study the interplay of unconventional superconductivity and pseudogap phenomena.

Essentially degenerate hidden nodal lines in two-dimensional magnetic layer groups

According to the theory of group representations, the types of band degeneracy can be divided into accidental degeneracy and essential degeneracy. The essentially degenerate nodal lines (NLs) are typically resided on the high-symmetry lines of the Brillouin zone. Here, we propose a type of NL in two dimension that is essentially degenerate but is hidden within the high-symmetry planes, making it less observable, dubbed a hidden-essential nodal line (HENL). The existence of HENL is guaranteed as long as the system hosts a horizontal glide-mirror symmetry, hence such NLs can be widely found in both non-magnetic and magnetic systems. We perform an exhaustive search over all 528 magnetic layer groups (MLGs) for HENL that can be enforced by glide-mirror symmetry with both spinless and spinfull systems. We find that 122 candidate MLGs host spinless HENL, while 63 candidate MLGs demonstrate spinful HENL. In addition, we reveal that horizontal mirror and time-reversal symmetry in type-II and type-IV MLGs with spin-orbital coupling can enforce HENL formed. The 15 corresponding candidate MLGs have also been presented. Furthemore, we derive a few typical lattice models to characterize the existence for the HENL. For specific electronic fillings in real materials, namely 4$N$+2 in spinless systems (and 2$N$+1 in spinful systems), the presence of the HENLs in candidate MLGs is required regardless of the details of the systems. Using \emph{ab-initio} calculations, we further identify possible material candidates that realize spinless and spinful HENL. Moreover, spinful HENLs exhibit a novel persistent spin texture wih the characteristic of momentum-independent spin configuration. Our findings uncover a new type of topological semimetal state and offer an ideal platform to study the related physics of HENLs.

Gravity potential determination based on China Space Station Dual-frequency microwave links frequency transfer

The China Space Station (CSS) is currently in orbit and carries the high-precision optical atomic clock with stability of approximately $2.0 \times 10^{-15} / \sqrtτ$ in its experiment module. We have developed a model to determine the gravity potential (GP) based on the gravity frequency shift equation and have created both one-way and dual-frequency transfer models up to $c^{-4}$. These models consider effects from the troposphere, ionosphere, and solid Earth tides. The proposed model is suitable for measurements at the magnitude of $10^{-19}$. Based on the CSS mission, we conducted the simulation experiments. The results indicate that when processing the simulation frequency signal using the proposed model, we can obtain the GP with the accuracies of $ (1.13\pm0.71)\,\mathrm{m^2/s^2}$, $ (0.09\pm0.89)\,\mathrm{m^2/s^2}$, and $(0.66\pm1.18)\,\mathrm{m^2/s^2}$ for cutoff elevation angles of $5^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$ and $15^{\circ}$, respectively. With the high-precision optical atomic clock onboard the CSS, the proposed model enables us to measure the GP differences in the magnitude of centimeter-level accuracy.

Flat panel laser displays enabled by large-scale visible photonic integrated circuits

Laser-based displays are highly sought after for their superior brightness and color performance, especially in advanced applications like augmented reality (AR). However, their broader adoption has been hindered by bulky projector designs and complex optical module assemblies. Here, we introduce a new laser display architecture enabled by large-scale visible photonic integrated circuits (PICs) to address these challenges. Unlike previous projector-style laser displays, this architecture features an ultra-thin, flat-panel form factor, replacing bulky free-space illumination modules with a single, high-performance photonic chip. Centimeter-scale PIC devices, which integrate thousands of distinct optical components on-chip, are carefully tailored to achieve high display uniformity, contrast, and efficiency. We demonstrate a 2 mm-thick flat-panel laser display combining the PIC with a liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS) panel, achieving 211% of the color gamut and more than 80% volume reduction compared to traditional LCoS displays. We further showcase its application in a see-through AR system. Our work represents a major advancement in the integration of nanophotonics with display technology, enabling a range of new display concepts, from high-performance immersive displays to slim-panel 3D holography.

Localization transitions of correlated particles in nonreciprocal quasicrystals

The interplay among interaction, non-Hermiticity, and disorder opens a new avenue for engineering novel phase transitions. We here study the spectral and localization features of two interacting bosons in one-dimensional nonreciprocal quasicrystals. Specifically, by considering a quasiperiodic Hubbard lattice with nonreciprocal hoppings, we show that the interaction can lead to a mobility edge, which arises from the fact that the bound states display a much lower threshold for spectral and extended-localized transitions than scattering states. The localization transition of bound or scattering states is accompanied by a complex-real spectrum transition. Moreover, while the two-particle localized states are robust to the boundary conditions, the two-particle extended states turn into skin modes under open boundary condition. We also show the correlated dynamics to characterize these localization transitions. Finally, we reveal that the bound states can form mobility edge on their own by introducing a dimerized nonreciprocal quasicrystal. Our paper may pave the way for the study of non-Hermitian few-body physics.

Quo Vadis, Anomaly Detection? LLMs and VLMs in the Spotlight

Video anomaly detection (VAD) has witnessed significant advancements through the integration of large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs), addressing critical challenges such as interpretability, temporal reasoning, and generalization in dynamic, open-world scenarios. This paper presents an in-depth review of cutting-edge LLM-/VLM-based methods in 2024, focusing on four key aspects: (i) enhancing interpretability through semantic insights and textual explanations, making visual anomalies more understandable; (ii) capturing intricate temporal relationships to detect and localize dynamic anomalies across video frames; (iii) enabling few-shot and zero-shot detection to minimize reliance on large, annotated datasets; and (iv) addressing open-world and class-agnostic anomalies by using semantic understanding and motion features for spatiotemporal coherence. We highlight their potential to redefine the landscape of VAD. Additionally, we explore the synergy between visual and textual modalities offered by LLMs and VLMs, highlighting their combined strengths and proposing future directions to fully exploit the potential in enhancing video anomaly detection.

Graph-Driven Models for Gas Mixture Identification and Concentration Estimation on Heterogeneous Sensor Array Signals

Accurately identifying gas mixtures and estimating their concentrations are crucial across various industrial applications using gas sensor arrays. However, existing models face challenges in generalizing across heterogeneous datasets, which limits their scalability and practical applicability. To address this problem, this study develops two novel deep-learning models that integrate temporal graph structures for enhanced performance: a Graph-Enhanced Capsule Network (GraphCapsNet) employing dynamic routing for gas mixture classification and a Graph-Enhanced Attention Network (GraphANet) leveraging self-attention for concentration estimation. Both models were validated on datasets from the University of California, Irvine (UCI) Machine Learning Repository and a custom dataset, demonstrating superior performance in gas mixture identification and concentration estimation compared to recent models. In classification tasks, GraphCapsNet achieved over 98.00% accuracy across multiple datasets, while in concentration estimation, GraphANet attained an R2 score exceeding 0.96 across various gas components. Both GraphCapsNet and GraphANet exhibited significantly higher accuracy and stability, positioning them as promising solutions for scalable gas analysis in industrial settings.

Searching for Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay of $^{136}$Xe with PandaX-4T

We report the search for neutrinoless double-beta decay of $^{136}$Xe from the PandaX-4T experiment with a 3.7-tonne natural xenon target. The data reconstruction and the background modeling are optimized in the MeV energy region. A blind analysis is performed with data from the commissioning run and the first science run. No significant excess of signal over the background is observed. A lower limit on the half-life of $^{136}$Xe neutrinoless double-beta decay is established to be $2.1 \times 10^{24}$~yr at the 90\% confidence level, with a $^{136}$Xe exposure of 44.6~kg$\cdot$year. Our result represents the most stringent constraint from a natural xenon detector to date.
