BLACK HOLE SPIN AND STELLAR FLYBY PERIASTRON SHIFT

Black Hole Spin and Stellar Flyby Periastron Shift

For a scenario of a close flyby of a compact star near a spinning black hole, we Tools provide analytical and numerical estimates for the shift of trajectory periastron due to relativistic (beyond post-Newtonian) effects.More specifically, we derived a generalized expression (not limited to quasi-circular or elliptical orbits) directly linking the

The war on drugs is a war on us: young people who use drugs and the fight for harm reduction in the Global South

Abstract In the Global South, young people who use drugs (YPWUD) are exposed to multiple interconnected social and health harms, with many low- and middle-income countries enforcing racist, prohibitionist-based drug policies that generate physical and structural violence.While harm reduction coverage for YPWUD is suboptimal globally, in low- and mi

Dense Hopfield networks in the teacher-student setting

Dense Hopfield Amiami networks with $p$-body interactions are known for their feature to prototype transition and adversarial robustness.However, theoretical studies have been mostly concerned with their storage capacity.We derive the phase diagram of pattern retrieval in the teacher-student setting of $p$-body networks, finding ferromagnetic phase
