New Technique Extracts Hidden Information from Galaxy Surveys

Scientists from the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC) and international collaborators have developed a new method to analyze data from galaxy surveys, allowing them to extract more information about the universe's structure and dark matter/energy. Their findings were published in Communications Physics.

Thermodynamic Constraints on Black Hole Entropy Modifications

Researchers propose that the Barrow entropy correction should be minimal to maintain thermodynamic stability in black holes, with potential exceptions at the Planckian regime. They demonstrate through theoretical analysis that the entropy correction must remain small to prevent black hole fragmentation, offering insights into entropy modifications and their implications for fundamental physics.

First High-Res Map of Massive Explosion in NGC 4383

In a study published in the journal, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, a team of international researchers has created the first high-resolution map of an enormous explosion in the neighboring galaxy NGC 4383, which will provide light on how elements contaminate the space between galaxies.

Quantum Observer Paradox: Extending Measurement Disturbance

This paper proposes that observers entangled with measurement possibilities cannot rely on standard predictions, extending the concept of measurement disturbance to the observers themselves. This argument challenges conventional interpretations of quantum mechanics and addresses the role of observers within the theory.
