Solvlng Non-Linear First Order Ordinary Differential Equations. by Taremwa, Elias

“…The initial value problem for a first-order system of ordinary differential equations is that much emphasis is put on finding solutions for linear differential equations leaving out nonlinear ones. Many physical applications lead to higher-order systems of ordinary differential equations, but there is a simple reformulation that will convert them into equivalent first-order systems. …”

New physics in spin entanglement by Mateusz Duch, Alessandro Strumia, Arsenii Titov

“…This is achieved by breaking the Lorentz group in a non-local way that tries avoiding stringent constraints, for example leaving unbroken the maximal sub-group SIM(2). As a phenomenological application, this new physics can alter the spins of top-antitop pairs (and consequently their entanglement) produced in pp collisions without impacting their rates. …”
