The characteristics of helically deflected wind turbine wakes
Authors: Korb H. , Asmuth H. , Ivanell S. 
Published: June 2023

The helix approach is a new individual pitch control method to mitigate wake effects of wind turbines. Its name is derived from the helical shape of the wake caused by a rotating radial force exerted by the turbine. While its potential to increase power production has been shown in previous studies, the physics of the helical wake are not well understood to date. Open questions include whether the increased momentum in the wake stems from an enhanced wake mixing or from the wake deflection. Furthermore, its application to a row of more than two turbines has not been examined before. We study this approach in depth from both an analytical and numerical perspective. We examine large-eddy simulations (LES) of the wake of a single turbine and find that the helix approach exhibits both higher entrainment and notable deflection. As for the application to a row of turbines, we show that the phase difference between two helical wakes is independent of ambient turbulence. Examination of LES of a row of three turbines shows that power gains greatly depend on the phase difference between the helices. We find a maximum increase in the total power of approximately 10 % at a phase difference of

$270^\circ$

. However, we do not optimise the phase difference any further. In summary, we provide a set of analytical tools for the examination of helical wakes, show why the helix approach is able to increase power production, and provide a method to extend it to a wind farm.
ON GROUPS WITH DEFINABLE F-GENERICS DEFINABLE IN P-ADICALLY CLOSED FIELDS
Authors: PILLAY ANAND , YAO NINGYUAN 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to develop the theory of groups definable in the p-adic field
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
, with “definable f-generics” in the sense of an ambient saturated elementary extension of
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
. We call such groups definable f-generic groups.So, by a “definable f-generic” or
$dfg$
group we mean a definable group in a saturated model with a global f-generic type which is definable over a small model. In the present context the group is definable over
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
, and the small model will be
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
itself. The notion of a
$\mathrm {dfg}$
group is dual, or rather opposite to that of an
$\operatorname {\mathrm {fsg}}$
group (group with “finitely satisfiable generics”) and is a useful tool to describe the analogue of torsion-free o-minimal groups in the p-adic context.In the current paper our group will be definable over
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
in an ambient saturated elementary extension
$\mathbb {K}$
of
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
, so as to make sense of the notions of f-generic type, etc. In this paper we will show that every definable f-generic group definable in
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
is virtually isomorphic to a finite index subgroup of a trigonalizable algebraic group over
${{\mathbb {Q}}_p}$
. This is analogous to the o-minimal context, where every connected torsion-free group definable in
$\mathbb {R}$
is isomorphic to a trigonalizable algebraic group [5, Lemma 3.4]. We will also show that every open definable f-generic subgroup of a definable f-generic group has finite index, and every f-generic type of a definable f-generic group is almost periodic, which gives a positive answer to the problem raised in [28] of whether f-generic types coincide with almost periodic types in the p-adic case.
CLIMATE POLICIES AND BUSINESS CYCLES: THE EFFECTS OF A DYNAMIC CAP
Authors: Eydam Ulrich 
Published: June 2023

AbstractEmissions are directly linked to economic output and consequently subject to business cycle fluctuations. The present study analyses the interactions between climate policies and business cycles through the lens of a New Keynesian dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model. We compare a static cap-and-trade policy with a dynamically adjusting policy in terms of macroeconomic stabilisation, welfare and emissions price dynamics. The results of the quantitative evaluation suggest that a constant policy leads to lower aggregate volatility but is associated with larger welfare costs. In contrast, under the dynamic policy emissions prices and labour markets display less variations.
Comparison of hydrocarbon and geothermal energy production in the Netherlands: reservoir characteristics, pressure and temperature changes, and implications for fault reactivation
Authors: Buijze Loes , Veldkamp Hans , Wassing Brecht 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe Netherlands is in the midst of an energy transition with hydrocarbon production gradually declining, whereas the role of sustainable energy technologies is on the rise. One of these technologies is geothermal energy production from porous reservoirs at 1.5–3 km depth. As the number of geothermal projects increases, there is a growing concern that felt and/or damaging induced seismic events could occur as a result of geothermal operations. Over the last two decades, such events have occurred in the Netherlands due to gas production, notably in the Groningen gas field. However, the occurrence of felt events is limited to hydrocarbon fields in certain regions or reservoirs. Understanding where and for which plays these events are observed helps to estimate seismogenic potential for geothermal operations and other sustainable subsurface activities. Here, we summarise and review the main similarities and differences in terms of geological and geomechanical characteristics between the hydrocarbon and geothermal plays in the Netherlands, and we consider the differences in pressure and temperature changes. By doing so, we provide better insights into the factors that could play a role for fault reactivation and induced seismicity, and how these differ for hydrocarbon production and geothermal operations in the Netherlands. The review shows that geological characteristics for most geothermal target reservoirs are similar to those of hydrocarbon, albeit geothermal projects so far target higher porosity rocks than hydrocarbon reservoirs. On the other hand, pressure and temperature changes are very different, with significant depletion for hydrocarbon fields vs significant cooling around geothermal injection wells. The different operations result not only in different expected stress change magnitudes but also in a distinct spatio-temporal stress build-up on faults, which has implications for seismogenic potential and monitoring of these different operations.
Less Annotating, More Classifying: Addressing the Data Scarcity Issue of Supervised Machine Learning with Deep Transfer Learning and BERT-NLI

Published: June 2023

AbstractSupervised machine learning is an increasingly popular tool for analyzing large political text corpora. The main disadvantage of supervised machine learning is the need for thousands of manually annotated training data points. This issue is particularly important in the social sciences where most new research questions require new training data for a new task tailored to the specific research question. This paper analyses how deep transfer learning can help address this challenge by accumulating “prior knowledge” in language models. Models like BERT can learn statistical language patterns through pre-training (“language knowledge”), and reliance on task-specific data can be reduced by training on universal tasks like natural language inference (NLI; “task knowledge”). We demonstrate the benefits of transfer learning on a wide range of eight tasks. Across these eight tasks, our BERT-NLI model fine-tuned on 100 to 2,500 texts performs on average 10.7 to 18.3 percentage points better than classical models without transfer learning. Our study indicates that BERT-NLI fine-tuned on 500 texts achieves similar performance as classical models trained on around 5,000 texts. Moreover, we show that transfer learning works particularly well on imbalanced data. We conclude by discussing limitations of transfer learning and by outlining new opportunities for political science research.

Abstract

Objectives
This study explored experts’ views on the development of a proposed checklist for cost-of-illness (COI) studies. It also investigated experts’ perspectives on the use of COI studies and quality/critical appraisal tools used for COI studies as well as their experiences with the use of these tools.

Methods
Semi-structured, open-ended interviews were conducted with health economists and other experts working with COI studies and with experience of developing health economic guidelines or checklists. Participants were selected purposively using network and snowball sampling. A framework approach was applied for the thematic data analysis. Findings were reported narratively.

Results
Twenty-one experts from eleven different countries were interviewed. COI studies were found to be relevant to estimate the overall burden of a disease, to draw attention to disease areas, to understand different cost components, to explain cost variability, to inform decision making, and to provide input for full economic evaluations. Experts reported a lack of a standardized critical appraisal tool for COI studies. Their experience related predominantly to guidelines and checklists designed for full economic evaluations to review and assess COI studies. The following themes emerged when discussing the checklist: (i) the need for a critical appraisal tool, (ii) format and practicality, (iii) assessing the questions, (iv) addressing subjectivity, and (v) guidance requirements.

Conclusions
The interviews provided relevant input for the development of a checklist for COI studies that could be used as a minimum standard and for international application. The interviews confirmed the important need for a checklist for the critical appraisal of COI studies.

Abstract
Long-term climate and vegetation data were used to determine the role of rainfall variability and its seasonal distribution on litterfall nutrients. Based on a 20-year data set on rainfall (range 334–1,506 mm per year) and litterfall nutrients from old-growth tropical dry forest (TDF) in Mexico, we examined litterfall N and P concentrations from the rainy and dry seasons in response to rainfall in the rainy (June–October) and the dry (November–May) seasons, the latter referred to as out-of-season precipitation (OSP). Rainy-season litterfall N concentrations, but not P concentrations nor N:P ratios, changed positively (p < 0.001) in response to rainy-season precipitation. Dry-season litterfall N concentrations and N:P ratios, but not litterfall P, increased (p ≤ 0.02) in response to rainfall from the preceding rainy season. N:P ratios of dry-season litterfall in years with OSP were higher only during dry years and N concentrations decreased in wet years (p < 0.05). The narrow range in dry-season litterfall P concentrations (1.00–1.15 mg g-1), irrespective of rainfall amount and OSP, suggests P conservation. The variation in litterfall N, but not litterfall P, in response to rainfall variability reveals a divergent nutrient response along steep changes in water availability in this TDF.
Postcolonialism and Regimes of Time: Anniversary Journalism of the Hong Kong Handover in British and Chinese Newspapers, 1998–2020

Published: June 2023

AbstractTemporality is important for understanding Hong Kong's postcolonial status since its handover from Britain to China in 1997. This study examines the mediated regimes of postcolonial temporalities in coverage of five anniversaries of the Hong Kong handover (between 1998 and 2020) in Chinese and British newspapers. In 1998, the Chinese and British press shared a significant consensus regarding the “legitimate continuity” of Hong Kong's colonial legacies; however, this consensus was increasingly undermined by ideological contestations surrounding the city's postcolonial ruptures and differences. The multiple temporal claims that emerged in Chinese and British newspapers were systemized within a proposed framework that combined temporal modes (the “formal structures” of temporal relations) and ideological appraisals (the “general politics” where temporal modes are (il)legitimized and (ab)normalized). The temporal complexity concerning Hong Kong exemplifies the former colony's dilemmatic “in-betweenness” and temporal inconclusiveness, which create an open discursive space that invites ideological investments by powerful symbolic stakeholders.

Published: June 2023

AbstractWithout protective immunity, recurrent sexually transmitted infections (STI) could occur. In this study, we retrospectively collected STI diagnosis records from public STI clinics attended by an average of 6,000 male patients annually in Hong Kong in 2009–2019. We estimated the prevalence of three bacterial STI (syphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhoea) coinfection from 2009 to 2019, and examined the factors associated with coinfection in 2014/15 and repeat infection in 2009–2019. We observed an increasing coinfection prevalence in male attendees with bacterial STI over the years, which reached the highest level of 15% in 2019. Among 3,698 male patients in 2014–2015, chlamydia/gonorrhoea coinfection was the commonest among all coinfections (77%). Factors such as young age (29 or below), HIV-positive status, and a history of concurrent genital warts/herpes were positively associated with coinfection in 2014/15 in multivariable logistic regression. Of all male patients with STI coinfection in 2014/15, those of age 30–49 and who self-reported as men who have sex with men (MSM) were more likely to have been repeatedly infected in 2009–2019. The results support the implementation of regular multi-STI testing as an STI control strategy for selected communities like MSM and people living with HIV.

AbstractOver the past 2 decades, several categorizations have been proposed for the abnormalities of the aortic root. These schemes have mostly been devoid of input from specialists of congenital cardiac disease. The aim of this review is to provide a classification, from the perspective of these specialists, based on an understanding of normal and abnormal morphogenesis and anatomy, with emphasis placed on the features of clinical and surgical relevance. We contend that the description of the congenitally malformed aortic root is simplified when approached in a fashion that recognizes the normal root to be made up of 3 leaflets, supported by their own sinuses, with the sinuses themselves separated by the interleaflet triangles. The malformed root, usually found in the setting of 3 sinuses, can also be found with 2 sinuses, and very rarely with 4 sinuses. This permits description of trisinuate, bisinuate, and quadrisinuate variants, respectively. This feature then provides the basis for classification of the anatomical and functional number of leaflets present. By offering standardized terms and definitions, we submit that our classification will be suitable for those working in all cardiac specialties, whether pediatric or adult. It is of equal value in the settings of acquired or congenital cardiac disease. Our recommendations will serve to amend and/or add to the existing International Paediatric and Congenital Cardiac Code, along with the Eleventh iteration of the International Classification of Diseases provided by the World Health Organization.
The JWST/NIRSpec GTO programme “The Physics of Galaxy Assembly: IFS observations of high-z galaxies”
Authors: Perna Michele 
Published: June 2023

AbstractWe present an overview of the project “The Physics of Galaxy Assembly: IFS observations of high-z galaxies”, a Guaranteed Time Observations (GTO) programme of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). It an ambitious project aimed at investigating the internal structure of distant galaxies with the NIRSpec integral field spectrograph (IFS), having allocated 273 hours of JWST prime time. The NIRSpec capability will provide us with spatially resolved spectroscopy in the 1-5 μm range of a sample of over forty galaxies and Active Galactic Nuclei in the redshift range 3 < z < 9. IFS observations of individual galaxies will enable us to investigate in detail the most important physical processes driving galaxy evolution across the cosmic epoch. More in detail, the main specific objectives are: to trace the distribution of star formation, to map the resolved properties of the stellar populations, to trace the gas kinematics (i.e. velocity fields, velocity dispersion) and, hence, determine dynamical masses and also identify non-virial motions (outflow and inflows), and to map metallicity gradients and dust attenuation.

AbstractTo understand the physical properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) in various scales, we should investigate it with pc-scale resolution over kpc scale coverage. Here, we report the sub-kpc scale Gas Density Histogram (GDH) of the Milky Way. GDH is a histogram of averaged density and corresponds to the probability density distribution (PDF) of gas volume density. We use galactic plain survey data (l =10∘− 50∘) at 12CO and 13CO (J = 1 − 0) obtained as a part of the FOREST Unbiased Galactic plane Imaging survey with the Nobeyama 45m telescope (FUGIN). With this method and data, we are free from spatial structure and molecular cloud identification. GDH can be well fitted with single or double log-normal distribution; which we call as the low-density log-normal (L-LN) and high-density log-normal (H-LN) components. We found both the H-LN fraction (fH) and L-LN width (σL) along the gas density axis show a coherent structure on the longitude-velocity diagram. It suggests that there is a relationship between the ISM property and kpc scale structure in the Milky Way.
Colour gradients of low-redshift galaxies in the DESI Legacy Imaging Survey
Authors: Liao Li-Wen , Cooper Andrew P. 
Published: June 2023

AbstractRadial colour gradients within galaxies arise from gradients of stellar age, metallicity, and dust reddening. Large samples of colour gradients from wide-area imaging surveys can be used to constrain galaxy formation models. Here we measured colour gradients for low-redshift galaxies using photometry from the 9th DESI Legacy Imaging Survey (LS), which reaches r ∼ 24 over ∼14,000 deg2. We investigate empirical relationships between colour gradients, M*, and sSFR. We compared our results with the prediction of the Illustris TNG-100 simulation using SDSS mock images.
Tug of War, or Cohabitation? : Star Formation and AGN Activities within Type 1 AGN Host Galaxies

Published: June 2023

AbstractThe interplay between star formation (SF) activity and active galactic nuclei (AGN) governs the co-evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their host galaxies. AGN feedback has been hailed as the de facto process to suppress, or even shut down SF within the framework of hierarchical galaxy merger based on the current ΛCDM paradigm. However, it is unclear what physical processes regulate the growth of SMBHs and how SMBHs and their evolution are interconnected with their host galaxies when SMBHs and host galaxies are of hugely different physical scales. In fact, there has been no observational evidence to show that AGN feedback works, but rather some evidence to speculate that the more powerful AGNs reside in the more actively star-forming host galaxies. While it is difficult to measure the amount of SF from AGN host galaxies, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission features emerged as good proxies for this purpose. Although having several caveats as SFR indicators, such as metallicity dependency, and non-SF contribution from evolved stellar populations, or AGNs, PAH emissions have been utilized to investigate SF activity of AGN host galaxies with varying results. Utilizing the slitless spectroscopic apability of the AKARI Infrared Camera, we obtained the spectra in the wavelength range of 2∼5 μm from extended regions of 79 type 1 AGN host galaxies to detect and measure the 3.3 μm (PAH) emission feature as star formation rate proxy. Based on 18 sample galaxies, we found that the luminosity of the 3.3 μm PAH emission feature is strongly correlated with AGN luminosity, except for ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). Therefore, we suggest that host galaxies with stronger AGN activities have stronger star formation activities. However, it is still unclear why ULIRGs deviate from the correlation, not to mention why the detection rate of the 3.3 μm emission feature is so low. High spatial resolution imaging not only for the circumnuclear region of AGN host galaxies, but also for entire galaxies should help the cause. We present the prospective studies to diagnose SF regulation for AGN host galaxies with various space telescope facilities, such as JWST, and SPHEREx.
GALEX UV Catalog of Low-redshift Galaxies for Estimating Transient Rates

Published: June 2023

AbstractDetection of transients such as supernovae (SNe) and kilonovae (KNe) in early phase has recently become important for understanding the progenitor properties and multi-messenger astronomy. Predicting which galaxy has the higher probability of hosting the transient events would help detect the early phase of the events and get information on their progenitors. The SN and KN rates are known to be a function of star formation rate (SFR) and stellar mass of the host galaxy. The SFR of a galaxy can be estimated from ultraviolet (UV) luminosity. However, the UV magnitudes have been derived carefully only for a limited number of nearby galaxies. Here, we introduce GALEX galaxy catalog of all-sky UV brightness of low redshift galaxies. To do so, we derive the UV photometry of galaxies in the GLADE catalog using the GALEX AIS images, supplemented by GALEX NGS and MIS data. From the near-UV (NUV) and far-UV (FUV) magnitudes, we calculate the SFRs of the galaxies, which will further be useful for estimating the SN and KN rate. The results are compared with previous GALEX UV catalog of galaxies. There will be an updated catalog based on this catalog for calculating KN rate of the galaxies in the future work.
