Authors: Yanfeng Gou , Qinfeng Xing , Ziwei Yang 
Published: July 2023

AbstractIn order to reveal the relationship between new urbanization and carbon emission to provide reference opinions for the construction of low-carbon urbanization, an evaluation system between new urbanization and carbon emission was constructed. Then their matching degree relationship was analyzed by coupling coordination degree model based on the data from 2012 to 2021 in Anhui Province, and their development trend from 2023 to 2032 was predicted by gray prediction model. The results show that: (1) New urbanization and carbon emission have the co-trend effect, and the consistency of core impact factors is relatively significant. Among them, the level of new urbanization increases from 0.058 in 2012 to 0.699 in 2021 and carbon emission development increases from 0.023 in 2012 to 0.165 in 2021, which both showing an upward trend. Meanwhile, social urbanization and population carbon emission are the core influencing factors. (2) The coupling coordination degree between new urbanization and carbon emission is low, but the synergy trend is optimistic and there is a large room for improvement. Among them, the coupling coordination coefficient of the coupling system rises from 0.136 in 2012 to 1.412 in 2021 (antagonistic phase), and then reaches 0.820 by 2032 (highly coordinated phase) by forecast. It shows that their current development is unbalanced, but the development trend is good, and there is a chance for improvement. This paper deepens the understanding of the logical correlation between new urbanization and carbon emission, and the following views are formed: (1) Low-carbon development is still the mainstream of new urbanization; (2) The coordination development of new urbanization and carbon emission reduction should be strengthened.
TDOA positioning accuracy analysis based on time difference direction‐finding in distributed high‐frequency surface wave radar
Authors: Bai Yang , Zhang Xin , Deng Weibo , Zhao Mengxiao 
Published: July 2023

AbstractIn the past few decades, the Time Difference of Arrival location technology in distributed high‐frequency surface wave radar has attracted wide attention due to its simple system, low cost, and higher positioning accuracy. Based on the time difference direction‐finding algorithm, this article presents new mathematical expressions of geometric dilution of precision in the Time Difference of Arrival positioning systems. The time difference direction‐finding reveals that the angle measurements are accurate for any length of baseline. Then the differences in geometric dilution of precision between the proposed algorithm and traditional method are analysed. Time difference direction‐finding algorithm can improve positioning accuracy without additional target information. Compared with the traditional method, the proposed algorithm can improve the positioning accuracy of partial observation areas under the same radar measurement system. The simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Stock market anomalies and machine learning across the globe
Authors: Azevedo Vitor , Kaiser Georg Sebastian , Mueller Sebastian 
Published: July 2023

AbstractWe identify the characteristics and specifications that drive the out-of-sample performance of machine-learning models across an international data sample of nearly 1.9 billion stock-month-anomaly observations from 1980 to 2019. We demonstrate significant monthly value-weighted (long-short) returns of around 1.8–2.2%, and a vast majority of tested models outperform a linear combination of predictors (our baseline factor benchmark) by a substantial margin. Composite predictors based on machine learning have long-short portfolio returns that remain significant even with transaction costs up to 300 basis points. By comparing 46 variations of machine-learning models, we find that the models with the highest return predictability apply a feed-forward neural network or composite predictors, with extending rolling windows, including elastic net as a feature reduction, and using percent ranked returns as a target. The results of our nonlinear models are significant across several classical asset pricing models and uncover market inefficiencies that challenge current asset pricing theories in international markets.
Effect of individualised strength and plyometric training on the physical performance of basketball players
Authors: Barrera‐Domínguez Francisco J. , Almagro Bartolomé J. , Sáez de Villarreal Eduardo , Molina‐López Jorge 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACTThe aims of this study were to examine the effects of eight weeks of individualised force‐velocity imbalance (F‐Vimb) training on physical performance in basketball players and to analyse the differences in physical performance between two periods of time (four to eight weeks) with this training. Thirty male players (age, 22.8 ± 5.68 years; height, 1.87 ± 0.07 m; body mass, 86.3 ± 11.1 kg) were divided into an intervention group (INT, n = 15), who performed an individualised training based on individual F‐Vimb; and a control group (CON, n = 15), who underwent a non‐individualised training programme; both groups performed two days/week of intervention and the same pre‐season basketball training. At baseline, at four weeks, and at eight weeks of intervention, an assessment was performed including countermovement‐jumps, unilateral drop jumps, triple hop test, force‐velocity profile, sprint and change of direction (COD). At four weeks, the INT showed improvements in sprint and vertical jumping actions (≥3.76%, ES ≥0.44, p ≤ 0.02). At eight weeks, the INT continued to improve vertical jumping actions (p < 0.05) and showed improvements in horizontal jumping (6.80%, ES = 0.45, p < 0.01) and COD (≥2.99%, ES ≥0.96, p < 0.01). A significant reduction in F‐Vimb was observed for INT (ES = 0.77, p = 0.01). In contrast, none of these changes were observed in CON. Thus, an individualised F‐Vimb training intervention improved physical performance after eight weeks, with changes in sprint and vertical jump after first four weeks. Basketball coaches should optimise the force‐velocity profile and improve the performance in sport‐related actions as jumping and changing direction.

Authors: Wang Xu , Jiang Pengfei , Gao Wenya , Liu Ziyi , Li Li , Liu Jianlong 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
In this study, we investigate the use of incoherent four-petal Gaussian sources for ghost imaging (GI) through atmospheric turbulence. A GI imaging formula for incoherent four-petal Gaussian sources in turbulent conditions is derived. The impact of propagation distance, turbulence strength and beam orders on the imaging quality is analyzed numerically in detail. Our findings indicate that the use of a four-petal Gaussian source can significantly improve the quality of the GI system under long-distance imaging conditions, as compared to the commonly used Gaussian sources.
Prospects of gluino searches in multi-lepton channels in light of the ongoing LHC RUN-III

Published: July 2023

Abstract
This study investigates the prospect of discovering strongly interacting gluinos in different multi-lepton channels with lepton multiplicities greater than or equal to 2 at LHC RUN-III, considering several pMSSM scenarios. The effectiveness of the multivariate analysis (MVA) method with the boosted decision tree (BDT) algorithm is explored to obtain a better significance for different models. Promising results are obtained for the 3-lepton channels, indicating that the use of MVA methods can improve the sensitivity of the search for gluinos at LHC RUN-III. The study probes the multi-lepton signatures arising from gluinos via intermediate eweakinos and sleptons at an early stage of the LHC RUN-III. The heavier eweakinos can give rise to three or four lepton signals, in which the squark hierarchy between the L and R types plays a crucial role. The study considers two sets of benchmark points that satisfy all the collider constraints obtained from the LHC RUN-II data. Moreover, these sets of benchmark points are mostly consistent with WMAP/PLANCK data and the muon (g-2) constraint. The corresponding results from the MVA technique demonstrate that, even for an integrated luminosity of 270

, the 5 σ discovery prospect of

for

TeV in the wino type model is promising. The study also presents various other models that may emerge at the early stage of LHC RUN-III. Wino type models in the scenario where left squarks are light and right squarks are heavy exhibit the best prospect of discovering gluinos in multi-lepton channels in the LHC RUN-III experiment. The findings of this study provide crucial insights into the potential discovery of gluinos in multi-lepton channels.

Abstract
A recently developed plasma-wall self-organization model (Escande et al 2022 Nucl. Fusion
62 026001) predicts a significantly enhanced density limit, which may be attainable in tokamaks with ECRH-assisted Ohmic start-up and sufficiently high initial neutral density. Experiments have been conducted on J-TEXT to validate such a density limit scenario based on this model. Experimental results demonstrate that increasing the pre-filled gas pressure or ECRH power during the start-up phase can help effectively enhance plasma purity and raise the density limit at the flat-top phase. The experimental data shows that density limit increases by a ratio

Mitigation synergy and policy implications in urban transport sector: a case study of Xiamen, China
Authors: Bian Yahui , Lin Jianyi , Han Hui , Lin Shuifa , Li Huaqing , Chen Xiang 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The urban transport sector is one of most significant contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) and air pollutant (AP) emissions. To achieve co-benefits of GHG and AP emission reductions, a synergistic mitigation approach targeting both climate change and air pollution has gained more attention. In this study, we evaluate mitigation synergy and policy implications for GHGs and nine APs, namely, sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NO
x
), carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matters (PM10 and PM2.5), black carbon (BC), organic carbon (OC), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and ammonia (NH3), in the transport sector of Xiamen, China, during the 2013–2060 period using the Low Emissions Analysis Platform model and quantitative analysis methods. Results show that light-duty vehicles, river boats, buses and heavy-duty trucks are significant common sources of GHG and AP emissions. Road sector abatement during 2013–2020 was most prominent, especially for CO, NO
X
, VOCs and GHGs. In this sector, guide green travel (GGT) and adjust energy structure (AES) are dominant measures for mitigation synergy between GHGs and APs. From 2021 to 2060, emission pathways for GHGs, SO2, CO, VOCs and NH3 under optimize transport structure (OTS), AES and GGT scenarios will decrease markedly. Their emissions will peak soon relative to those under business as usual scenario. Additionally, the potential of mitigation synergy may mainly be attributed to the road and shipping sectors under AES scenario, which is the most effective in reducing PM10, PM2.5, BC and OC emissions; the mitigation potential under the AES scenario for GHGs and other APs is nearly 1–4 times as high as that under OTS and GGT scenarios. Therefore, mitigation synergy, especially in adjusting the energy structure for the transport sector, is essential for achieving the simultaneous goals of the ‘blue sky’ and ‘carbon peaking and neutrality’.
Divergent flash drought risks indicated by evaporative stress and soil moisture projections under warming scenarios
Authors: Kim Daeha , Chun Jong Ahn , Yeo Ji-hye , Ha Kyung-Ja 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Offline drought indices have been utilizable for monitoring drought conditions, but their reliability in projecting future drought risks is uncertain due to non-meteorological influences on atmospheric water demand (Ep
). This study investigated the impact of surface resistance sensitivity (rs
) to elevated CO2 (eCO2) on projections of future flash droughts (FD). We evaluated FD risks across an East Asian region during a historical period (1981–2020) and a future period (2021–2060) using two evaporative stress index (ESI) series. One series employs the conventional Penman-Monteith (PM) equation for Ep
, while the other incorporates a generic rs sensitivity to eCO2 derived from advanced Earth System Models (ESMs). We compared the FD risks identified by the two ESI series with assessments based on soil moisture data from atmospheric reanalysis and multiple ESM projections under two emission scenarios linked with the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways. Results showed that the response of rs
to eCO2 has had minimal influences on temporal variations of ESI for the past decades, likely due to its low sensitivity and the masking effects of other environmental factors. However, for the future decades, the ESI projected by the conventional PM equation significantly diverged from soil moisture projections, overestimating future FD risks even under a low emission scenario. We found that incorporating the generic rs
sensitivity into the PM equation did not simply resolve the disparity in FD frequencies between ESI and soil moisture projections. Many associated factors contributing to stomatal responses to eCO2 complicate the understanding of future flash drought risks. This study suggests that overreliance on the conventional Ep
formula, which neglects non-meteorological effects, could decrease the ability of ESI to detect future FD events under eCO2.
Investigating the Efficiency of (Alhagi graecorum) Plant in Accumulating some Heavy Metals
Authors: Al-Mashhadi Mortada Jabr Hussein , Alabadi Luma Abdalalah Sagban 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the efficiency of the alhagi plant in adsorbing and accumulating heavy metals in the plant that grows naturally on both sides of the highway extending between the cities of Diwaniyah and Baghdad, passing through the city of Hilla. Plants grow 50 meters away on the sides of the main highway. The results showed that the lead concentration in the shoot and root system was higher than the permissible limit. The highest lead concentration was in Baghdad’s soil, and the lowest was in Diwaniyah. It is attributed to the momentum and traffic density of the city of Baghdad. The cadmium concentration in the shoots was less than the permissible limit, while it was higher in the root shoots, and the highest concentration appeared in the soil of Baghdad city. The cadmium concentration was less concentrated than the rest of the studied elements, lead, zinc, and nickel. The results showed that nickel was less than the permissible limit in the vegetative and root system. The zinc concentration in shoots was higher than the permissible limit, except in the soils of Hilla and Diwaniya at the right and left sides, respectively, it was less than the permissible limit. As for its concentration in the root system, it was higher than the permissible limit, except for the soil of Al-Diwaniyah city on the right side. The concentrations of the studied elements in the root system were higher than in the shoot system. The results of the plant pollution standards showed that the values of the bio concentration factor and the bioaccumulation factor for all studied elements are less than the value of one, which means that the alhagi plant is not considered one of the plants that accumulate heavy elements. Therefore, it is of limited benefit for the vegetative reclamation of soils contaminated with the studied heavy elements, except for the zinc element, as its values were between 0.1-10, which indicates that the sedum plant is a moderate accumulation of the zinc element. The results also present that the values of the local transmission coefficient for all the studied elements are more significant than the value of one. It indicates the movement and transfer of all elements from the root to the vegetative system.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
During the winters of 2020/2021 and 2021/2022, an experiment was done on a private farm in Taha El-Marg Village, Diarb Negm District, Al Sharqia Governorate, Egypt. The purpose of these studies was to examine the impact of intercropping systems using caraway and garlic at varying row ratios (single crop of each as control, 1:2, 2:1, and 2: 2, respectively) and potassium rates (0.0, 25, 50, and 75 kg K2O/feddan) on competitive indices between the two crops. Plots consisted in the intercropping systems and the subplots were constituted by the potassium fertilization rates. Alternating two rows of caraway with one row of garlic significantly increased land equivalent ratio (LER), area× time equivalent ratio (ATER) and land utilization efficiency (LUE%) compared to the other intercropping systems. Under the highest potassium fertilization level, the highest values of LER (1.17 and 1.10), ATER (1.09 and 1.04) and LUE% (112.82 and 107.00%) were achieved. In general applied intercropping systems (1:2 or 2: 2 systems) were more efficient than sole cropping and other one under study when combined with potassium fertilization rate at 75 kg K2O/feddan, in most cases. Both competitive ratio (CR) and Aggressivity (A) estimation showed that caraway was dominant while garlic was dominated.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
Several plants have been used to treat and prevent various chronic conditions, including triglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia. Rosemary is one of these herbs, and it contains biological antioxidant mechanisms. Rosemary is a thorny shrub that grows throughout Europe and Southeast Asia. It has medicinal effects and is used in traditional medicine. The goal of this study was to see how rosemary leaves powder affected lipid profiles in experimental animals. The results showed that the total level of triglycerides and total level of cholesterol of the treated groups were lower. The group administered with herb powder (10 g) had considerably lower LDL-C levels, while the group given (10 g/day) had statistically significant increases in HDL-C levels. Finally, rosemary herb appears to improve dyslipidemia and its effects on liver enzymes in a method that relies on the addition of powder and lowers lipid levels by raising antioxidant levels, lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease in chronic condition.
