Toxic Smoke and Carcinogenic Exposure in Urban Street Grilling: A Quantitative Multi-Regional Comparison of Black Charcoal, Plastic-Bag Ignition, and Meat-Type Health Risks in Peru, Argentina, the United States, Asia, and Europe

This study quantifies the severe public health and environmental hazards of informal street grilling in Latin America, revealing that the practice of igniting black charcoal with plastic bags and cooking high-fat meats generates toxic smoke and carcinogenic contaminants at levels drastically exceeding global safety standards compared to regulated regions.

Cross-Domain Generalization Failure in Lightweight Intrusion Detection Models for IIoT Networks

This study reveals that lightweight intrusion detection models for IIoT networks suffer from severe cross-domain generalization failures due to reliance on non-transferable port-category shortcuts and evaluation biases, underscoring the critical need for cross-network testing under realistic class distributions to ensure deployment readiness.

A Native RTL Quantum Statevector Simulator in FP64 on an HBM-Equipped FPGA

This paper presents a native Verilog RTL implementation of a high-performance FP64 quantum statevector simulator on an HBM-equipped FPGA that achieves perfect fidelity for up to 15 qubits by translating a validated HLS kernel into hand-written logic with specialized gate engines and an optimized HBM memory architecture, while also documenting a specific verification failure for 16 or more qubits.

Social Statements: A Proposal for a Social-Value Balance Sheet and Profit-Loss Statement

This paper proposes a new framework of "social statements"—modeled after conventional financial statements but quantifying a firm's social relationships and external stakeholder interactions—to enable unified measurement of social value and integrate it into corporate decision-making to address the externalization of social and environmental costs.

Energetics of non-Gaussianity in single mode cavities

This paper introduces an energetic framework for characterizing non-Gaussianity in single-mode bosonic states by decomposing total energy into Gaussian and non-Gaussian contributions, establishing the latter as a valid measure for pure states and a faithful witness for mixed states while revealing its close relationship with Wigner negativity.

Bolometric correction for cosmologically redshifted stars with dust: an update to the YBC database

This paper updates the YBC stellar bolometric correction database by introducing zYBC, a new resource that incorporates cosmological redshift, dust extinction, and advanced NLTE spectral libraries to provide accurate bolometric corrections and color predictions for high-redshift stars observed by facilities like HST and JWST.

An intercomparison of generative machine learning methods for downscaling precipitation at fine spatial scales

This study compares Generative Adversarial Networks, flow matching, and diffusion models for downscaling precipitation in New Zealand, finding that while all methods perform competitively on standard metrics, diffusion and flow matching offer superior calibration and fidelity, though most approaches struggle to accurately reproduce future climate change signals for extreme precipitation.
