We study the minimal gauged U(1) B-L supersymmetric model and show that it provides an attractive theory for spontaneous R-parity violation. Both U(1) B-L and R parity are broken by the vacuum expectation value of the right-handed sneutrino (proportional to the soft supersymmetry masses), thereby linking the B-L and soft SUSY scales. In this context we find a consistent mechanism for generating neutrino masses and a realistic mass spectrum, all without extending the Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetry standard model. We discuss the most relevant collider signals and the connection between the Z' gauge boson and R-parity violation.

Dark photons, as a minimal extension of the Standard Model through an additional Abelian gauge group, may propagate relativistically across the galaxy, originating from dark matter decay or annihilation, thereby contributing to a galactic dark photon background. The generation of dark photons typically favors certain polarization modes, which are dependent on the interactions between dark matter and dark photons. We introduce a framework in which a resonant cavity is utilized to detect and differentiate these polarizations, leveraging the daily variation in expected signals due to the anisotropic distribution of dark photons and the rotation of the Earth.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems are critical in ensuring the safety of space exploration, as spacecraft and structures can experience detrimental stresses and strains. By deploying conventional strain gauges, SHM systems can promptly detect and assess localized strain behaviors in structures; however, these strain gauges are limited by low sensitivity (gauge factor, GF ∼ 2). This study introduces an approach to printing strain gauges with high sensitivity, while also considering stretchability and long-term durability.

Background: diagnosis of early chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a challenge due to the lack of accurate methods. The ability of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided biopsy to obtain pancreatic core tissue samples in patients with minimal changes of CP and its potential use for the histological diagnosis of early CP are unknown. The aim of the study was to evaluate the ability of different EUS-guided biopsy core needles to obtain histological samples of healthy pig pancreas.

Long-gauge fiber optic sensors have proven to be valuable tools for structural health monitoring, especially in reinforced concrete (RC) beam structures. While their application in this area has been well-documented, their use in RC columns remains relatively unexplored. This suggests a promising avenue for further research and development.

Background: Clinically important improvement after total shoulder arthroplasty is often assessed with shoulder-specific patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) quantifying reduction in pain and restoration in function. It is unclear if commonly utilized threshold such as minimal clinically important difference (MCID), substantial clinical benefit (SCB), or patient acceptable symptom state (PASS), represent optimal improvement from the patients' perspective. The objectives of this study were to utilize the Simple Shoulder Test to: 1) compare commonly utilized thresholds for change in score and final score to thresholds optimized to patient satisfaction using receiver operative characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, and 2) determine the impact of using different thresholds on reporting of independent predictors of successful outcome in terms of patient satisfaction.
