High-resolution flow field data are critical for accurately evaluating the aerodynamic performance of aircraft. However, acquiring such data through large-scale numerical simulations or wind tunnel experiments is highly resource-intensive. Flow field super-resolution techniques offer an efficient alternative by reconstructing high-resolution data from low-resolution inputs. While existing super-resolution methods can recover the global structure of the flow, they often struggle to capture fine local details, especially shock waves. To address this limitation, this research proposes the FlowViT-Diff framework that integrates Vision Transformers (ViT) with an enhanced denoising diffusion probabilistic model to simultaneously capture global coherence and local flow features with high fidelity.

Maritime recovery of spacecraft is critical for crewed missions, offering advantages such as reduced impact forces and enhanced safety. While airbag cushioning systems have been widely adopted to mitigate landing impacts, prior studies predominantly focused on land or calm-water scenarios, leaving the complex interactions between airbags, reentry capsules, and ocean waves poorly understood. This study published in the Chinese Journal of Aeronautics on June6, 2025, addresses this gap by employing a Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) model to analyze water-landing characteristics under wave conditions, revealing key mechanisms such as wave-phase-dependent impact forces and horizontal velocity thresholds for stability. The findings provide essential insights for optimizing recovery systems, ensuring safer and more reliable maritime operations for reusable spacecraft.

A method is proposed for high-resolution neutron spectrum regulation across the entire energy domain, which helps to determine the optimal neutron spectrum for transuranic isotope production and a regulation scheme to establish this optimal neutron spectrum within the irradiation channels. The state-of-the-art production schemes for ²⁵²Cf and ²³⁸Pu in the High Flux Isotope Reactor were optimized, improving the yield of ²⁵²Cf by 12.16% and that of ²³⁸Pu by 7.53% to 25.84%.

To simulate blood flow inside brain aneurysms, researchers from Japan developed a computational method that combines 4D flow MRI, computational fluid dynamics, and data assimilation, which provides greater accuracy and efficiency. By focusing only on the aneurysm region, this approach significantly reduces computational cost while improving flow estimation. When validated on patient data, it outperforms conventional models—offering a practical tool for patient-specific risk assessment and treatment strategies.

A team of Italian researchers has uncovered compelling evidence of anomalous radioactive decay in cobalt-57 (Co-57) under ultrasonic stimulation, offering strong experimental support for the Deformed Space-Time (DST) theory. The findings, published by Stefano Bellucci (INFN-Frascati) and Fabio Cardone (ISMN-CNR), suggest that brief ultrasonic exposure can trigger a departure from conventional exponential decay laws, mediated by energy-dependent space-time distortions that violate local Lorentz invariance (LLI).
