Hybrid Classical--Quantum Learning for Space Based Data Centers: A CUDA-Q Study of Variational and Photonic Backends

This study evaluates hybrid classical-quantum routing for a 10-node space-based data center using a CUDA-Q workflow, finding that while photonic backends achieve superior accuracy with low latency, variational quantum circuit (VQC) backends incur prohibitive latency penalties despite offering richer quantum-state structures.

The Nysa family as the main source of unequilibrated LL ordinary chondrites

By comparing the spectral and mineralogical properties of LL chondrites and near-Earth objects with their potential sources, this study concludes that the Nysa and Flora asteroid families are the distinct parent bodies responsible for the petrologic diversity of LL chondrites, favoring a multiple-parent-body model over a single thermally stratified one.

Lithium Enrichment in a Subgiant Star with a Brown Dwarf Companion: A Planetary Engulfment Candidate

This study identifies the subgiant star TOI-5882 as a strong candidate for planetary engulfment, evidenced by its significant lithium enrichment which modeling suggests could result from the ingestion of a super-Earth to Neptune-mass planet.

BALLAST: Bayesian Active Learning with Look-ahead Amendment for Sea-drifter Trajectories under Spatio-Temporal Vector Fields

The paper introduces BALLAST, a Bayesian active learning framework that optimizes the placement of Lagrangian sea drifters for inferring time-dependent ocean vector fields by incorporating look-ahead trajectory predictions and a novel efficient Gaussian Process inference method called VaSE.

A Multi-Layer Testing Framework for Automated Data Quality Assurance in Cloud-Native ELT Pipelines

This paper presents a unified, multi-layer testing framework for cloud-native ELT pipelines that integrates orchestration-level validation, declarative dbt tests, and LLM-generated semantic tests, demonstrating through controlled experiments that this approach achieves a 128.57% improvement in anomaly detection over manual baselines while maintaining operational practicality.
