Article Synopsis
  • - The Daya Bay experiment has successfully measured the oscillation amplitude and frequency of reactor antineutrinos over nearly 2,000 days of data, finding significant results about their behavior.
  • - They observed over 3.6 million signal candidates using improved selection and calibration methods, leading to a measurement of sin²2θ₁₃ = 0.0759 with a precision that indicates how antineutrinos change states.
  • - Combining results from different detection methods at Daya Bay, the overall measurement of sin²2θ₁₃ increased precision to 0.0833±0.0022, representing an 8% improvement in understanding these neutrino properties.

Article Synopsis
  • - On October 9, 2022, LHAASO detected a significant afterglow from the gamma-ray burst 221009A, achieving record photon statistics in the TeV energy range.
  • - This observation allowed researchers to test the idea of Lorentz invariance violation (LIV), which is related to faster-than-light travel predictions in some quantum gravity theories.
  • - The study established that the energy scales for LIV effects are significantly higher than previously thought, with new lower limits being 10 times the Planck energy for linear effects and 6×10^{-8} times the Planck energy for quadratic effects, improving earlier constraints by 5-7 times.

In this Letter we try to search for signals generated by ultraheavy dark matter at the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) data. We look for possible γ rays by dark matter annihilation or decay from 16 dwarf spheroidal galaxies in the field of view of the LHAASO. Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are among the most promising targets for indirect detection of dark matter that have low fluxes of astrophysical γ-ray background while having large amount of dark matter.

This Letter presents results of a search for the mixing of a sub-eV sterile neutrino with three active neutrinos based on the full data sample of the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment, collected during 3158 days of detector operation, which contains 5.55×10^{6} reactor ν[over ¯]_{e} candidates identified as inverse beta-decay interactions followed by neutron capture on gadolinium. The analysis benefits from a doubling of the statistics of our previous result and from improvements of several important systematic uncertainties.

The prevalence of obesity, characterized by an excessive accumulation of adipose tissue and adipocyte hypertrophy, presents a major public health challenge. This study investigates the therapeutic potential of two probiotic strains, Probio65 and Probio-093, in the context of obesity. Utilizing 3T3-L1 cell-derived human adipocytes, we assessed Probio65's and Probio-093's capacity to mitigate triglyceride accumulation and influence adipocytokine production in vitro.
