A Highly Magnetic Ultra Massive White Dwarf with a 23-minute Rotation Period

We present a physical characterization of TMTS J00063798+3104160 (J0006), a rapidly rotating,ultra-massive white dwarf (WD) identified in high-cadence light curves from the Tsinghua University-Ma Huateng Telescope for Survey (TMTS). A coherent 23-minute periodicity is detected in TMTS, TESS, and ZTF photometry. A time series of low-resolution spectra with the Keck-I 10 m telescope reveals broad, shallow hydrogen absorption features indicative of an extreme magnetic field and shows no evidence for radial-velocity variations. Atmospheric modeling yields a magnetic field strength of $\sim$ 250 MG, while Gaia astrometry and photometry imply a mass of 1.06 $\pm$ 0.01 M$_{\odot}$. A significant infrared excess is detected in the WISE W1 band and is well fitted by a 550 K blackbody, likely arising from residual material of a merger. We interpret the 23-minute photometric modulation as the rotation period of an isolated, massive WD formed likely through the merger of a double WD binary. With one of the shortest rotation periods known among candidate merger remnants and with constraints from a deep Einstein Probe X-ray nondetection, J0006 provides a rare and important observational window into the poorly explored intermediate stages of post-merger evolution.

StreamingEffect: Real-Time Human-Centric Video Effect Generation

Streaming video effect generation is highly desirable for live human-centric applications such as e-commerce streaming, entertainment, and vlogging, yet remains difficult due to the lack of suitable data and deployable editing models. Unlike generic video generation, this task requires real-time video-to-video editing that adds expressive effects while preserving human identity, background content, and temporal consistency. Existing acceleration efforts mainly focus on text-to-video generation, while efficient distillation for video editing remains largely underexplored. In this paper, we present \textbf{StreamingEffect}, a real-time human-centric streaming video effect framework. We adopt an in-context video editing architecture and train a high-quality bidirectional teacher, then distill it into a causal autoregressive student and further reduce sampling from 50 steps to 4 steps. We also introduce keyframe control, allowing reference effect frames to be injected online and propagated through the stream for interactive editing. To address the data bottleneck, we construct \textbf{VideoEffect-130K}, to our knowledge the largest human-centric video effect dataset, containing 70K effect videos and 60K editing videos across 600 effect categories curated from short-video and editing platforms. Experiments show that our method enables real-time, high-quality 720p video editing on a single H200 GPU.

Ultrahigh-Energy Gamma-ray Emission Associated with Black Hole-Jet Systems

Black holes (BH), one of the most intriguing objects in the universe, can manifest themselves through electromagnetic radiation initiated by the accretion flow. Some stellar-mass BHs drive relativistic jets when accreting matter from their companion stars, forming microquasars. Non-thermal emission from the radio to tera-electronvolt (TeV) gamma-ray band has been observed from microquasars, indicating the acceleration of relativistic particles. Here we report detection of four microquasars (SS 433, V4641 Sgr, GRS 1915+105, MAXI J1820+070) of spectrum extending to the ultrahigh-energy (UHE; photon energy $E>100$ TeV) band and one microquasar (Cygnus X-1) of spectrum approaching 100 TeV, using the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). Notably, the total emission associated with SS 433 cannot be interpreted with a single leptonic component. In the UHE band, its emission is in spatial coincidence with a giant atomic cloud, which is consistent with a hadronic origin. An elongated source is discovered from V4641 Sgr with the spectrum continuing up to 800 TeV. The detection of UHE gamma rays demonstrates that accreting BHs and their environments can operate as extremely efficient accelerators of particles out of 1 peta-electronvolt (PeV), suggesting microquasars to be important contributors to Galactic cosmic rays especially around the `knee' region.

Low-dimensional metal-organic magnets as a route towards the S=2 Haldane phase

Metal-organic magnets (MOMs), modular magnetic materials where metal atoms are connected by organic linkers, are promising candidates for next-generation quantum technologies. MOMs readily form low-dimensional structures, and so are ideal systems to realise physical examples of key quantum models, including the Haldane phase, where a topological excitation gap occurs in integer-spin antiferromagnetic (AFM) chains. Thus far the Haldane phase has only been identified for $S=1$, with $S \geq 2$ still unrealised because the larger spin imposes more stringent requirements on the magnetic interactions. Here, we report the structure and magnetic properties of CrCl$_2$(pym) (pym=pyrimidine), a new quasi-1D $S=2$ AFM MOM. We show, using X-ray and neutron diffraction, bulk property measurements, density-functional theory calculations and inelastic neutron spectroscopy (INS) that CrCl$_2$(pym) consists of AFM CrCl$_2$ spin chains ($J_1=-1.13(4)\;$meV) which are weakly ferromagnetically coupled through bridging pym ($J_2=0.10(2)\;$meV), with easy-axis anisotropy ($D=-0.15(3)\;$meV). We find that although small compared to $J_1$, these additional interactions are sufficient to prevent observation of the Haldane phase in this material. Nevertheless, the proximity to the Haldane phase together with the modularity of MOMs suggests that layered Cr(II) MOMs are a promising family to search for the elusive $S=2$ Haldane phase.

A spectroscopic study of blue supergiant stars in Local Group spiral galaxies: Andromeda and Triangulum

Low-resolution LAMOST and Keck spectra of blue supergiant stars distributed over the disks of the Local Group spiral galaxies M 31 and M 33 are analyzed to determine stellar effective temperatures, gravities, metallicities, and reddening. Logarithmic metallicities at the center of the galaxies (in solar units) of $0.30\pm0.09$ and $0.11\pm0.04$ and metallicity gradients of $-0.37\pm0.13$ dex/$R_{25}$ and $-0.36\pm0.16$ dex/$R_{25}$ are measured for M 31 and M 33, respectively. For M 33 the 2-dimensional distribution of metallicity indicates a deviation from azimutal symmetry with an off-centre peak. The flux-weighted gravity-luminosity relationship of blue supergiant stars is used to determine a distance modulus of 24.51$\pm$0.13 mag for M 31 and 24.93$\pm$0.07 mag for M 33. For M 31 the flux-weighted gravity--luminosity relationship (FGLR) distance agrees well with other methods. For M 33 the FGLR-based distance is larger than the distances from Cepheids studies but it is in good agreement with work on eclipsing binaries, planetary nebulae , long-period variables, and the tip of the red giant branch.

Constraints on self-dual black hole in loop quantum gravity with S0-2 star in the Galactic Center

One of remarkable features of loop quantum gravity (LQG) is that it can provide resolutions to both the black hole and big bang singularities. In the mini-superspace approach based on the polymerization procedure in LQG, a quantum corrected black hole metric is constructed. This metric is also known as self-dual spacetime since the form of the metric is invariant under the exchange $r \to a_0/r$ with $a_0$ being proportional to the minimum area in LQG and $r$ is the standard radial coordinate at asymptotic infinity. It modifies the Schwarzschild spacetime by the polymeric function $P$, purely due to the geometric quantum effects from LQG. Here $P$ is related to the polymeric parameter $δ$ which is introduced to define the paths one integrates the connection along to define the holonomies in the quantum corrected Hamiltonian constraint in the polymerization procedure in LQG. In this paper, we consider its effects on the orbital signatures of S0-2 star orbiting Sgr A* in the central region of our Milky Way, and compare it with the publicly available astrometric and spectroscopic data, including the astrometric positions, the radial velocities, and the orbital precession for the S0-2 star. We perform Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) simulations to probe the possible LQG effects on the orbit of S0-2 star. No significant evidence of the self-dual spacetime arisIng from LQG is found. We thus place an upper bounds at 95\% confidence level on the polymeric function $P < 0.043$ and $P < 0.056$, for Gaussian and uniform priors on orbital parameters, respectively.

Deep Fusion Prior for Plenoptic Super-Resolution All-in-Focus Imaging

Multi-focus image fusion (MFIF) and super-resolution (SR) are the inverse problem of imaging model, purposes of MFIF and SR are obtaining all-in-focus and high-resolution 2D mapping of targets. Though various MFIF and SR methods have been designed; almost all the them deal with MFIF and SR separately. This paper unifies MFIF and SR problems in the physical perspective as the multi-focus image super resolution fusion (MFISRF), and we propose a novel unified dataset-free unsupervised framework named deep fusion prior (DFP) based-on deep image prior (DIP) to address such MFISRF with single model. Experiments have proved that our proposed DFP approaches or even outperforms those state-of-art MFIF and SR method combinations. To our best knowledge, our proposed work is a dataset-free unsupervised method to simultaneously implement the multi-focus fusion and super-resolution task for the first time. Additionally, DFP is a general framework, thus its networks and focus measurement tactics can be continuously updated to further improve the MFISRF performance. DFP codes are open source available at http://github.com/GuYuanjie/DeepFusionPrior.

Displacement calibration of optical tweezers with absolute gravitational acceleration

In recent years, levitated particles of optical traps in vacuum have shown enormous potential in precision sensor development and searching for new physics. The accuracy of the calibration relating the detected signal to absolute displacement of the trapped particle is a critical factor for absolute measurement performance. In this paper, we suggest and experimentally demonstrate a novel calibration method for optical tweezers based on free-falling particles in vacuum, where the gravitational acceleration is introduced as an absolute reference. Our work provides a calibration protocol with great certainty and traceability, which is significant in improving the accuracy of precision sensing based on optically levitated particles.

Fault-Tolerant Deep Learning: A Hierarchical Perspective

With the rapid advancements of deep learning in the past decade, it can be foreseen that deep learning will be continuously deployed in more and more safety-critical applications such as autonomous driving and robotics. In this context, reliability turns out to be critical to the deployment of deep learning in these applications and gradually becomes a first-class citizen among the major design metrics like performance and energy efficiency. Nevertheless, the back-box deep learning models combined with the diverse underlying hardware faults make resilient deep learning extremely challenging. In this special session, we conduct a comprehensive survey of fault-tolerant deep learning design approaches with a hierarchical perspective and investigate these approaches from model layer, architecture layer, circuit layer, and cross layer respectively.

Free-spin dominated magnetocaloric effect in dense Gd$^{3+}$ double perovskites

Frustrated lanthanide oxides with dense magnetic lattices are of fundamental interest for their potential in cryogenic refrigeration due to a large ground state entropy and suppressed ordering temperatures, but can often be limited by short-range correlations. Here, we present examples of frustrated fcc oxides, Ba$_2$GdSbO$_6$ and Sr$_2$GdSbO$_6$ and the new site-disordered analog Ca$_2$GdSbO$_6$ ([CaGd]$_A$[CaSb]$_B$O$_6$), in which the magnetocaloric effect is influenced by minimal superexchange ($J_1 \sim 10$ mK). We report on the crystal structures using powder x-ray diffraction and the bulk magnetic properties through low-field susceptibility and isothermal magnetization measurements. The Gd compounds exhibit a magnetic entropy change of up to -15.8 J/K/mol$_\textrm{Gd}$ in a field of 7 T at 2 K, a 20 % excess compared to the value of -13.0 J/K/mol$_\textrm{Gd}$ for a standard in magnetic refrigeration, Gd$_3$Ga$_5$O$_{12}$. Heat capacity measurements indicate a lack of magnetic ordering down to 0.4 K for Ba$_2$GdSbO$_6$ and Sr$_2$GdSbO$_6$, suggesting cooling down through the liquid 4-He regime. A mean-field model is used to elucidate the role of primarily free spin behavior in the magnetocaloric performance of these compounds in comparison to other top-performing Gd-based oxides. The chemical flexibility of the double perovskites raises the possibility of further enhancement of the magnetocaloric effect in the Gd$^{3+}$ fcc lattices.

LTD064402+245919, compact binary or subgiant with red star eclipsing binary?

Recently, a single-line spectroscopic binary, LTD064402+245919, has been discovered by Yang et al. Using data from LAMOST and ZTF, the unseen companion is estimated to have a mass of 1-3 $M_{\odot}$, orbiting a subgiant with orbital period of 14.50 days, making it a good compact binary candidate without X-ray emission. However, new light curves from ZTF and ASAS-SN, have shown the depth of one dip increases towards a bluer wavelength, indicating LTD064402+245919 is more likely to be a subgiant with a red star. Using both Wilson-Devinney code and Phoebe, the derived $T_{eff}$ of secondary is about 3400 K, corresponding to a red M2/3 star. Additionally, the 20% error of parallax from Gaia is large. The mass of subgiant will be 1.28 $M_{\odot}$ instead of 2.77 $M_{\odot}$, if the refined distance of 5.0kpc is used. Nevertheless, new multi-colour photometry are warranted for the final confirmation of binary properties.

Multimode optomechanical cooling via general dark-mode control

The dark-mode effect is a stubborn obstacle for ground-state cooling of multiple degenerate mechanical modes optomechanically coupled to a common cavity-field mode. Here we propose an auxiliary-cavity-mode method for simultaneous ground-state cooling of two degenerate or near-degenerate mechanical modes by breaking the dark mode. We find that the introduction of the auxiliary cavity mode not only breaks the dark-mode effect, but also provides a new cooling channel to extract the thermal excitations stored in the dark mode. Moreover, we study the general physical-coupling configurations for breaking the dark mode in a generalized networkcoupled four-mode optomechanical system consisting of two cavity modes and two mechanical modes. We find the analytical dark-mode-breaking condition in this system. This method is general and it can be generalized to break the dark-mode effect and to realize the simultaneous ground-state cooling in a multiple-mechanicalmode optomechanical system. We also demonstrate the physical mechanism behind the dark-mode breaking by studying the breaking of dark-state effect in the N-type four-level atomic system. Our results not only provide a general method to control various dark-mode and dark-state effects in physics, but also present an opportunity to the study of macroscopic quantum phenomena and applications in multiple-mechanical-resonator systems.

The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) Science Book (2021 Edition)

Since the science white paper of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) published on arXiv in 2019 [e-Print: 1905.02773 (astro-ph.HE)], LHAASO has completed the transition from a project to an operational gamma-ray astronomical observatory LHAASO is a new generation multi-component facility located in Daocheng, Sichuan province of China, at an altitude of 4410 meters. It aims at measuring with unprecedented sensitivity the spectrum, composition, and anisotropy of cosmic rays in the energy range between 10$^{12}$ and 10$^{18}$~eV, and acting simultaneously as a wide aperture (one stereoradiant) continuously operating gamma-ray telescope in the energy range between 10$^{11}$ and $10^{15}$~eV with the designed sensitivity of 1.3\% of the Crab Unit (CU) above 100 TeV. LHAASO&#39;s capability of measuring simultaneously different shower components (electrons, muons, and Cherenkov/fluorescence light), will allow it to investigate the origin, acceleration, and propagation of CR through measurement of the energy spectrum, elemental composition, and anisotropy with unprecedented resolution. The remarkable sensitivity of LHAASO will play a key role in CR physics and gamma-ray astronomy for a general and comprehensive exploration of the high energy universe and will allow important studies of fundamental physics (such as indirect dark matter search, Lorentz invariance violation, quantum gravity) and solar and heliospheric physics. The LHAASO Collaboration organized an editorial working group and finished all editorial work of this science book, to summarize the instrumental features and outline the prospects of scientific researches with the LHAASO experiment.

Thin Accretion Disk onto slowly rotating black holes in Einstein-Æther theory

The accretion disk is formed by particles moving in closed orbits around a compact object, whose physical properties and the electromagnetic radiation characteristics are determined by the space-time geometry around the compact object. In this paper, we study the physical properties and the optical appearance of the electromagnetic radiation emitted from a thin accretion disk around the two types of the black hole solution in Einstein-Æther theory. We investigate in detail the effects of the æther field on the energy flux, temperature distribution, and electromagnetic spectrum of the disk in the two types of slowly rotating Einstein-Æther black holes. Then we plot the ray-traced redshifted image as well as the intensity and polarization profile of a lensed accretion disk around the two types of Einstein-Æther black holes. We found that from the image simulation, the æther field only has a certain effect on the central shadow area of the accretion disk.

Winograd Convolution: A Perspective from Fault Tolerance

Winograd convolution is originally proposed to reduce the computing overhead by converting multiplication in neural network (NN) with addition via linear transformation. Other than the computing efficiency, we observe its great potential in improving NN fault tolerance and evaluate its fault tolerance comprehensively for the first time. Then, we explore the use of fault tolerance of winograd convolution for either fault-tolerant or energy-efficient NN processing. According to our experiments, winograd convolution can be utilized to reduce fault-tolerant design overhead by 27.49\% or energy consumption by 7.19\% without any accuracy loss compared to that without being aware of the fault tolerance

Site-selective $d^{10}$/$d^0$ substitution in a $S = 1/2$ spin ladder Ba$_2$CuTe$_{1-x}$W$_x$O$_6$ ($0 \leq x \leq 0.3$)

Remarkably, doping isovalent $d^{10}$ and $d^0$ cations onto the $B$&#39;&#39; site in $A_2B$&#39;$B$&#39;&#39;O$_6$ double perovskites has the power to direct the magnetic interactions between magnetic $B$&#39; cations. This is due to changes in orbital hybridization, which favors different superexchange pathways, and leads to the formation of alternative magnetic structures depending on whether $B$&#39;&#39; is $d^{10}$ or $d^0$. Furthermore, the competition generated by introducing mixtures of $d^{10}$ and $d^0$ cations can drive the material into the realms of exotic quantum magnetism. Here, a W$^{6+}$ $d^0$ dopant was introduced to a $d^{10}$ hexagonal perovskite Ba$_2$CuTeO$_6$, which possesses a spin ladder geometry of Cu$^{2+}$ cations, creating a Ba$_2$CuTe$_{1-x}$W$_x$O$_6$ solid solution ($x$ = 0 - 0.3). Neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction show that W$^{6+}$ is almost exclusively substituted for Te$^{6+}$ on the corner-sharing site within the spin ladder, in preference to the face-sharing site between ladders. This means the intra-ladder interactions are selectively tuned by the $d^0$ cations. Bulk magnetic measurements suggest this suppresses magnetic ordering in a similar manner to that observed for the spin-liquid like material Sr$_2$CuTe$_{1-x}$W$_x$O$_6$. This further demonstrates the utility of $d^{10}$ and $d^0$ dopants as a tool for tuning magnetic ground states in a wide range of perovskites and perovskite-derived structures.

Accelerating Generative Neural Networks on Unmodified Deep Learning Processors -- A Software Approach

Generative neural network is a new category of neural networks and it has been widely utilized in applications such as content generation, unsupervised learning, segmentation and pose estimation. It typically involves massive computing-intensive deconvolution operations that cannot be fitted to conventional neural network processors directly. However, prior works mainly investigated specialized hardware architectures through intensive hardware modifications to the existing deep learning processors to accelerate deconvolution together with the convolution. In contrast, this work proposes a novel deconvolution implementation with a software approach and enables fast and efficient deconvolution execution on the legacy deep learning processors. Our proposed method reorganizes the computation of deconvolution and allows the deep learning processors to treat it as the standard convolution by splitting the original deconvolution filters into multiple small filters. Compared to prior acceleration schemes, the implemented acceleration scheme achieves 2.41x - 4.34x performance speedup and reduces the energy consumption by 27.7% - 54.5% on a set of realistic benchmarks. In addition, we also applied the deconvolution computing approach to the off-the-shelf commodity deep learning processors. The performance of deconvolution also exhibits significant performance speedup over prior deconvolution implementations.

Evolution of magnetic order in van-der-Waals antiferromagnet FePS$_3$ through insulator-metal transition

Layered van-der-Waals 2D magnetic materials are of great interest in fundamental condensed-matter physics research, as well as for potential applications in spintronics and device physics. We present neutron powder diffraction data using new ultra-high-pressure techniques to measure the magnetic structure of Mott-insulating 2D honeycomb antiferromagnet FePS$_3$ at pressures up to 183 kbar and temperatures down to 80 K. These data are complemented by high-pressure magnetometry and reverse Monte Carlo modeling of the spin configurations. As pressure is applied, the previously-measured ambient-pressure magnetic order switches from an antiferromagnetic to a ferromagnetic interplanar interaction, and from 2D-like to 3D-like character. The overall antiferromagnetic structure within the $ab$ planes, ferromagnetic chains antiferromagnetically coupled, is preserved, but the magnetic propagation vector is altered from $(0\:1\:\frac{1}{2})$ to $(0\:1\:0)$, a halving of the magnetic unit cell size. At higher pressures, coincident with the second structural transition and the insulator-metal transition in this compound, we observe a suppression of this long-range-order and emergence of a form of magnetic short-range order which survives above room temperature. Reverse Monte Carlo fitting suggests this phase to be a short-ranged version of the original ambient pressure structure - with a return to antiferromagnetic interplanar correlations. The persistence of magnetism well into the HP-II metallic state is an observation in seeming contradiction with previous x-ray spectroscopy results which suggest a spin-crossover transition.

Spherical Accretion Flow onto General Parameterized Spherically Symmetric Black Hole Spacetimes

The transonic phenomenon of black hole accretion and the existence of the photon sphere are the characteristics of strong gravitational fields near a black hole horizon. In this work, we study spherical accretion flow onto a general parametrized spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes. For this purpose, we analyze the accretion process of various perfect fluids, such as the isothermal fluid of ultra-stiff, ultra-relativistic, and sub-relativistic types and polytropic fluid, respectively. The influences of extra parameters beyond the Schwarzschild black hole in the general parameterized spherically symmetric black hole on the flow behaviors of the above-mentioned test fluids are studied in detail. In addition, by studying the accretion of ideal photon gas, we further discuss the correspondence between the sonic radius of accreting photon gas and the photon sphere for the general parameterized spherically symmetric black hole. Some possible future extensions of our analysis are also discussed.

SquidLab -- a user-friendly program for background subtraction and fitting of magnetization data

We present an open-source program free to download for academic use with full user-friendly graphical interface for performing flexible and robust background subtraction and dipole fitting on magnetization data. For magnetic samples with small moment sizes or sample environments with large or asymmetric magnetic backgrounds, it can become necessary to separate background and sample contributions to each measured raw voltage measurement before fitting the dipole signal to extract magnetic moments. Originally designed for use with pressure cells on a Quantum Design MPMS3 SQUID magnetometer, SquidLab is a modular object-oriented platform implemented in Matlab with a range of importers for different widely-available magnetometer systems (including MPMS, MPMS-XL, MPMS-IQuantum, MPMS3 and S700X models), and has been tested with a broad variety of background and signal types. The software allows background subtraction of baseline signals, signal preprocessing, and performing fits to dipole data using Levenberg-Marquadt non-linear least squares, or a singular value decomposition linear algebra algorithm which excels at picking out noisy or weak dipole signals. A plugin system allows users to easily extend the built-in functionality with their own importers, processes or fitting algorithms. SquidLab can be downloaded, under Academic License, from the University of Warwick depository (wrap.warwick.ac.uk/129665).

Structure and magnetism of a new hexagonal polymorph of Ba$_3$Tb(BO$_3$)$_3$ with a quasi-2D triangular lattice

This article reports the structural and magnetic characterisation of a new hexagonal ($P6_3cm$) low-temperature phase of Ba$_3$Tb(BO$_3$)$_3$, isostructural with the heavier lanthanide borates with formula Ba$_3$Ln(BO$_3$)$_3$ (Ln = Dy-Lu). The crystal structure contains a quasi-two-dimensional (2D) triangular lattice of Tb$^{3+}$ ions and is predicted to display unusual magnetic behaviour as a result of the low dimensionality. Magnetic susceptibility $χ(T)$ shows antiferromagnetic interactions ($θ_{CW} = -7.15$ K) and no sharp ordering transition at $T \geq 2$ K, but analysis of $χ&#39;(T)$, isothermal magnetisation and heat capacity suggests the possibility of short-range ordering at $T \approx 10$ K. The material exhibits an inverse magnetocaloric effect at $T < 4$ K.

Thin Accretion Disk around a four-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Black Hole

Recently a novel four-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (4EGB) theory of gravity was proposed by Glavan and Lin [D. Glavan and C. Lin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 081301 (2020)] which includes a regularized Gauss-Bonnet term by using the re-scaling of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant $α\to α/(D-4)$ in the limit $D\to 4$. This theory also has been reformulated to a specific class of the Horndeski theory with an additional scalar degree of freedom and to a spatial covariant version with a Lagrangian multiplier that can eliminate the scalar mode. Here we study the physical properties of the electromagnetic radiation emitted from a thin accretion disk around the static spherically symmetric black hole in the 4EGB gravity. For this purpose, we assume the disk is in a steady-state and in hydrodynamic and thermodynamic equilibrium so that the emitted electromagnetic radiation is a black body spectrum. We study in detail the effects of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant $α$ in 4EGB gravity on the energy flux, temperature distribution, and electromagnetic spectrum of the disk. It is shown that with the increases of the parameter $α$, the energy flux, temperature distribution, and electromagnetic spectrum of the accretion disk all increase. Besides, we also show that the accretion efficiency increases as the growth of the parameter $α$. Our results indicate that the thin accretion disk around the static spherically symmetric black hole in the 4EGB gravity is hotter, more luminosity, and more efficient than that around a Schwarzschild black hole with the same mass for a positive $α$, while it is cooler, less luminosity, and less efficient for a negative $α$.
