An adaptive framework for the axisymmetric pulsar magnetosphere using physics-informed Kolmogorov-Arnold networks

arXiv:2606. 10686v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The pulsar magnetosphere has only recently been addressed using Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), by deploying a domain-decomposition approach and treating the separatrix and equatorial current sheet as infinitesimally thin discontinuities.

PISCES: Physics-Informed Solar-wind Convolutional autoEncoder for Space-weather Anomaly Detection and Early Warning

PISCES is a physics‑informed convolutional autoencoder designed to detect solar‑wind transients for space‑weather early warning. Trained on OMNI solar‑wind data without catalog labels, its loss incorporates magnetic field consistency, temperature‑velocity relations, the Parker spiral angle, and temporal smoothness penalties. During inference, PISCES decomposes the anomaly score into magnetic, plasma, physics‑relation, and residual components, enabling alarms that can precede observed sudden commencements and positive sudden impulses.

Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Fast Multilayer Spectral Inversion of H{\alpha} 6562.8 A and Ca II 8542.1 A Spectra

The paper presents a physics-informed neural network (PINN) that accelerates multilayer spectral inversion (MLSI) of solar chromospheric lines Hα 6562.8 Å and Ca II 8542.1 Å. The PINN predicts MLSI parameters from observed line profiles and uses a differentiable forward model to synthesize spectra, trained in two stages—first with spectral reconstruction loss, then fine‑tuned with conventional MLSI results on a single reference image. Applied to Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph data, the method reproduces key spatial structures and achieves a 12–60× speedup, processing a raster in 5–15 s versus 3–5 min for traditional MLSI.

Estimating Parameter Fields in Multi-Physics PDEs from Scarce Measurements

The paper introduces Neptune, a method that uses independent coordinate neural networks to infer parameter fields in multi-physics PDEs from sparse measurements. Neptune can accurately estimate parameters with nonlinear, spatiotemporal variations, outperforming existing techniques by reducing estimation errors by up to two orders of magnitude and improving dynamic response predictions by a factor of ten. It also demonstrates strong physical extrapolation, enabling reliable predictions beyond the training data.
