This proceeding summarizes recent measurements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ at the Belle and Belle~II experiments. It provides insights derived from both exclusive and inclusive determinations. [...]

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN will undergo an upgrade inorder to increase its luminosity to7.5 × 10$^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$. The increased luminosityduring this High-Luminosity running phase, starting around 2029,means a higher rate of proton-proton interactions, hence a largerionizing dose and particle fluence for the detectors. [...]

To cope with the challenging environment of the planned high luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), scheduled to start operation in 2029, CMS will replace its entire tracking system. The requirements for the tracker are largely determined by the long operation time of 10 years with an instantaneous peak luminosity of up to 7.5 x 10$^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ in the ultimate performance scenario. [...]

We present a novel model that may provide an interpretation for a class of non-repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) – short (⁠|$\lt 1~\rm {s}$|⁠), bright (⁠|$0.1 - 1000~\rm {Jy}$|⁠) bursts of MHz–GHz frequency radio waves. The model has three ingredients – compact object, a progenitor with effective magnetic field strength around 10^10 Gauss, and high-frequency (MHz–GHz) gravitational waves (GWs). [...]

The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) represents a significant leap inthe pursuit of fundamental physics. Scheduled to operate at a center-of-mass energy of14 TeV and a peak instantaneous luminosity up to 7. [...]

Talc, as an important class of clay minerals constituting subducting oceanic crust, has long been known to undergo interlayer expansion by ~6% to contain net ~13 wt.% water into the ‘so-called’ 10 Å phase. Although subduction fluid is mildly alkaline and includes various salts and other dissolved species, its effect on the stability of subducting minerals has not yet been considered. [...]

Quantum computing provides a novel avenue towards simulating dynamical phenomena, and, in particular, scattering processes relevant for exploring the structure of matter. However, preparing and evolving particle wave packets on a quantum device is a nontrivial task. [...]

The use of metal single atoms (SAs) as co-catalysts on semiconductors has emerged as a promising technology to enhance their photocatalytic hydrogen production performance. In this study, we describe the deposition of very low amounts of Pt SAs (<0.1 at %) on exfoliated graphitic carbon nitride (C3N4) by a direct Pt−deposition approach from highly dilute chloroplatinic acid precursors.
