<galois> [arXiv] “APES: Approximate Posterior Ensemble Sampler” Sandro Dias Pinto Vitenti, Eduardo J. Barroso — «This paper proposes a novel approach to generate samples from target distributions that are difficult to sample from using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Traditional MCMC algorithms often face slow convergence due to the difficulty in finding proposals that suit the problem at hand. To address this issue, the paper…»
<galois> [arXiv] “XRBcats: Galactic Low Mass X-ray Binary Catalogue” A. Avakyan, M. Neumann, A. Zainab et al. — «We present a new catalogue of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the Galaxy. The catalogue contains source names, coordinates, source types, fluxes, distances, system parameters, and other characteristic properties of 349 LMXBs, including systems that have been newly discovered or reclassified since the most recently reported…»
