Harvard physicist Matthew Schwartz says his BootLoops toolkit helped Claude finish 30 scattering-amplitude integrals, 15 of them never completed before. His examples show the harness keeps the math checkable while collaborators still decide which questions are worth computing.

Kyoto, Harvard and UCLA researchers find shared noise in up to 21,000 mouse visual cortex neurons slows sensory information growth without capping it. The finding challenges a 30-year-old coding assumption, but beyond the recorded cells it rests on extrapolated power laws.

The order was never published, so the record is a sequence: Vought pushed it at a Friday meeting, the Senate Appropriations chair wrote against it on Tuesday, and by Wednesday one person familiar with the decision called it dead.

At very low temperature, quantum fluctuations can unfreeze a spin glass instead of locking it tighter, and the state on the other side is the fast, entangled one the SYK model uses to describe black holes.

Johns Hopkins reports that mouse axons preserved by high pressure freezing are beaded at the nanoscale, and says that shape may help set how fast signals travel, a variable the textbook drawing of a smooth tube leaves out.

A Harvard and University of Ghana team detrended two decades of district production records and found that heavy April-June rain matters about as much as dry-season drought, with both extremes tied to large-scale climate patterns.

Ecologists working with art historians are pulling dated biological observations out of old paintings. The check on that method is deciding which brushstrokes were observed and which were invented.

The tusk stays straight, the authors say, because its inner and outer tissues twist in opposite directions. A leading tusk specialist accepts that anatomy and rejects what the same paper says the tooth is for.

Electrons frozen into a lattice inside a tungsten diselenide monolayer turn out to vibrate, and the light used to look at them comes back carrying those vibrations. That makes the ordered phase something an optical bench can measure.
