The last decade has seen unprecedented effort in dark matter model building at all mass scales coupled with the design of numerous new detection strategies. Transformative advances quantum technologies have led to a plethora high-precision sensors and strategies for ultralight ($<10\,$eV) bosonic that can be described by an oscillating classical, largely coherent field. This white paper focuses on searches wavelike scalar vector candidates.
Enhanced rock weathering (ERW) has emerged as a promising carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy, with tens of dedicated EW commercial entities having been set up in the last three years. UNDO is one these, operations across Northern United Kingdom and Eastern Canada.Commercial selling CDR, like UNDO, are required to measure, verify report how much CO2 removed at regular time intervals. However, different methods CDR quantification likely produce numbers, depending on where measurement taken...
Enhanced weathering (EW) is cited as a promising carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy, and being rapidly commercialized. Rigorous monitoring, reporting verification (MRV) are essential to ensure claims accurate credits not mis-sold. MRV protocols incorporate multiple approaches, including soil porewater sampling. This paper calculates potential CDR from porewater, via an alkalinity estimation calculated charge balance, samples, the accumulation of exchangeable cations on exchange sites....
A light scalar field framework of dark energy, sometimes referred to as quintessence, introduces a fifth force between normal matter objects. Screening mechanisms, such the chameleon model, allow be almost massless on cosmological scales while simultaneously evading laboratory constraints. We explore ability existing mechanical systems directly detect associated with chameleons in an astrophysically viable regime where it could energy. provide analytical expressions for weakest accessible...
