Optimizing mobile in-app advertising effectiveness using app publishers-controlled factors
Authors: Truong Vinh 
Published: May 2023

AbstractMobile in-app advertising has become one of the most popular business advertising platforms in recent years. This relatively new advertising strategy’s annual spending has increased dramatically in recent years. Despite its practical success, the background theory for mobile in-app advertising is still in its infancy. This type of advertising also sees the emergence of new participants, such as ad networks and app publishers, which leads to the development of new theoretical constructs and more nuanced conceptual relationships on top of popularly accepted frameworks, e.g. Mobile Advertising Effectiveness Framework. This study especially looks at app publishers’ roles, which have received the least attention in the advertising literature and are almost non-existent in the previous effectiveness frameworks. The empirical goal of this study was to assess the moderating effects of ad space characteristics on the effectiveness of mobile in-app advertising. To test the research’s conceptual model, a 24-factorial online experiment was set up. Accordingly, this study established a common goal for participants and a metric to measure that common effectiveness goal. Ultimately, the model was successfully tested by both Moderated Regression Analysis and Multigroup Moderation Analysis techniques with data from over 15,000 ad impressions and over 800 ad clicks from thousands of mobile users in over 160 countries around the world. The study theoretically found that publishers can significantly moderate the effects controlled by advertisers, and users, which can practically help increase the revenue of advertising through designing and delivering ad spaces on their applications.
Entity, event, and sensory modalities: An onto-cognitive account of sensory nouns
Authors: Zhong Yin , Ahrens Kathleen , Huang Chu-Ren 
Published: May 2023

AbstractNouns in human languages mostly profile concrete and abstract entities. But how much eventive information can be found in nouns? Will such eventive information found in sensory nouns have anything to do with the cognitive representation of the basic human senses? Importantly, is there any ontological and/or cognitive motivation that can account for this noun–verb dichotomy via body-and-world interactions? This study presents the first comprehensive investigation of sensory nouns in Mandarin Chinese, examining their qualia structures formalised in the Generative Lexicon Theory, as well as the time-dependent (endurant–perdurant) properties encoded in their sensory modalities. This study fills the gap in sensorial studies by highlighting the pivotal position of nouns in sensory experiences and provides insights into the interactions between perception, cognition, and language. Further, it establishes, for the first time, the cognitive motivation of the categorial noun–verb bifurcation without presupposing any a priori knowledge of grammatical categories.

Abstract

Research has yet to evaluate how direct-to-consumer genetic services for companion animals may influence the human–animal bond (HAB). US-based Wisdom Panel
TM
customers were invited to complete an online survey to evaluate dog guardians who had used a genetic test for their dogs. This paper presents a subset of that data in which participants provided qualitative responses and answered Likert scale questions related to genetic test use and the HAB. Our sample consisted of 253 participants who completed the HAB questions, with 126 completing one or both open-ended text box questions. Qualitative responses were deductively coded using a codebook from a previous content analysis on pet genetic company website and consumer review data. Responses to HAB Likert items indicated genetic test results allow guardians to learn more about their dog, a benefit promoted by pet genetic companies, but did not suggest the new genetic knowledge influenced their sentiments toward the tested dog. Central themes found in qualitative responses were participants using the test results to interpret their dog’s breed or other types of information (e.g. biological relatives in the Wisdom Panel database). Other themes were participants discussing their perceptions toward their dog’s test results (e.g. perceived accuracy of the results) and sharing information about their dog to give additional context to their experience of using a genetic test (e.g. dog acquisition history). Follow-up research should further explore the potential impacts companion animal genetic services may have on the HAB and utilize these findings as a framework. These lines of inquiry will especially be pertinent with the growing use of genetic services for companion animals and genetic researchers suggesting genomic technologies may be used to enhance HAB.

Abstract
Benzodiazepines like nitrazepam are extensively used, both as prescribed medications and as illicit drug substitutes, and therefore detection is of prime importance. In this work, the electrochemical detection of nitrazepam using a graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) modified electrode was investigated. The nitrogen-rich carbon material i.e., g-C3N4 was easily synthesized by the thermal condensation method using melamine as a precursor. The platinum electrode was modified by synthesized material and its electrochemical activity was tested using a three-electrode set-up. The cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy confirmed the effective detection of nitrazepam. The detection at different concentrations was analyzed using CV and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The detection limit of 0.02 μM was found with the linear dynamic range of nitrazepam. A repeatability experiment was conducted to check the stability of the proposed electrode. This study confirms the potential use of g-C3N4 as an effective and stable electrode material for the detector in the field of pharmaceuticals and health care.
Laser irradiation time influence on the optical and structural properties of copper phthalocyanine blue thin films
Authors: Ejam Ahmed Ali , AbdulWahhab Nihal A 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Copper phthalocyanine blue thin films were deposited on a glass substrate 219.12 nm thick at room temperature and deposited by a spin coating technique. After deposition, the thin films were irradiated at different laser wavelengths 650 532 and 405 nm for different irradiation times 0, 10, 20, and 30 min. The optical properties were measured before and after irradiating the thin films. The absorbance and reflectance decrease with increasing irradiation time. The same behavior is noticed for all laser wavelengths. The energy gap augment’s with augmenting irradiation time. XRD results show a decrease in the peak height with increasing time. Atomic mass microscopy data show that there is an obvious impact on thin films by laser radiation.
Generation of conventional solitons and bound state solitons in a passively mode-locked fiber laser based on GIMF–NCF–GIMF structured saturable absorber
Authors: Fan Yufeng , Wang D N , Xu Ben 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
A new all-fiber structured saturable absorber, consisting of graded index multimode fiber-no-core fiber-graded index multimode fiber (GIMF–NCF–GIMF), in a passively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser is proposed and demonstrated. The conventional solitons with a center wavelength of 1575.5 nm, a pulse width of 707 fs, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 66 dB are generated at the repetition frequency of 18.919 MHz. The different lengths of each part of the saturable absorber (SA) can usually allow the fiber laser system to reach mode-locking, which shows that the length limits on this SA can not be quite as serious. Meanwhile, by only adjusting the polarization controller, tightly bound solitons and loosely bound solitons can be readily generated. The pulse trains of tightly bound solitons exhibit a separation of 1.52 ps, a pulse width of ∼850 fs, and centered at 1573 nm, whereas the pulse separation of loose bound solitons are from 23 ps to 58 ps, which shows wide variations of the time dispersion. More importantly, it is found that tightly bound solitons and loosely bound solitons can exist simultaneously for higher-order solitons, for the first time to the best of our knowledge. Such an SA is easy to fabricate, highly stable and of low cost, and has high potential in ultrafast photonics.
Optical appearance of the Schwarzschild black hole in the string cloud context*

Published: May 2023

Abstract
The image of a black hole (BH) consists of direct and secondary images that depend on the observer position. We investigate the optical appearance of a Schwarzschild BH in the context of a string cloud to reveal how the BH's observable characteristics are influenced by the inclination angle, string cloud parameter, and impact parameter. Following Luminet's work [Astron. Astrophys. 75, 228 (1979)], we adopt a semi-analytic method to calculate the total bending angle of the light ray and derive the direct and secondary images of the Schwarzschild string cloud BH. Our results show that an increase in the inclination angle leads to a more pronounced separation of the images. We consider the gravitational redshift and present the redshift distribution of the direct image while illustrating the flux distribution. We observe that the direct image exhibits blueshift and redshift simultaneously, and the asymmetry of the flux distribution increases with the inclination angle. Finally, we obtain the Schwarzschild string cloud BH image via a numerical simulation, which provides an approximate illustration of the EHT resolution.

Abstract
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extragalactic radio transients with millisecond duration and brightness temperature. An FRB-associated X-ray burst (XRB) was recently found to arise from the Galactic magnetar SGR J1935+2154. Following the model of Dai, in which an FRB may originate from a magnetar encountering an asteroid, we focus on explaining the spectrum of the XRB associated with FRB 200428 from SGR J1935+2154. Collisions between asteroidal fragments and the magnetar surface produce a fireball, which further expands relativistically. Due to the velocity difference among some shells in the fireball, internal shocks would form far away from the magnetar, and further emit X-ray emission. We propose that the FRB-associated XRB can be produced by synchrotron emission from the internal shocks, and then constrain the physical parameters by the observed XRB spectrum.

Abstract
Acrylic is widely used as material for the target container
in low background experiments due to its high light transparency and
low intrinsic radioactivity. However, its surface can be easily
contaminated during production, so careful treatment of the surface
is essential to avoid direct contamination of the target. The
Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory will use about 600 t of
acrylic to build the spherical vessel of 35.4 m in diameter for a
20 kt liquid scintillator (LS). Since acrylic will contact the LS
directly, the cleanliness of the its surface is quite important for
the radiopurity of the LS. A new method for measuring the
radioactivity of 238U and 232Th in acrylic to sub-ppt
(< 10-12 g/g) was developed, and it is crucial for the acrylic
radioactivity screening in this study. We performed many background
tests on different surface treatments, and the recommended procedure
for the treatment of acrylic to achieve low radioactivity and high
light transparency could be applicable to other low background
experiments.

Abstract
A Cylindrical Gas Electron Multiplier (CGEM) is under construction for the upgrade of the BESIII inner tracker. A preliminary simulation of the CGEM signal before the frond-end electronics has been worked out by making some sampling models from the beforehand Garfield++ simulation. The electronics response functions are implemented making the simulation of CGEM more complete. By comparing the cosmic-ray data acquired by two layers of CGEM and the simulation, the micro-sector effect is simulated and some key parameters in the sampling models are fine tuned in this order: gain, charge sharing, charge fluctuation and electron diffusion. A general agreement is achieved between the cosmic-ray data and the simulation with these improvements.
The relationship between female and younger legislative representation and performance on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Authors: Amanuma Nobue , Zusman Eric , Langlet Dewi 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Though the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were crafted through an inclusive process, research on the relationship between greater female or younger legislative representation and SDG performance has been lacking. This article employs a linear mixed effects modeling approach to shed light on this relationship. Controlling for economic and democracy levels and population, the modeling reveals a positive correlation between female and youth legislative representation and SDG performance. Additional analyses, however, suggest the strength of the relationships with female and youth legislative representation vary between the socioeconomic and environmental SDGs. Female and youth representation are strongly correlated with the socioeconomic SDG index; they improve the fit of the model for the environmental SDG index. This result may stem from a tendency in developed countries to trade off the environmental SDGs for the socioeconomic SDGs. It may also imply that greater legislative representation is not sufficient to overcome constraints in energy and consumption and production systems that often lead to those trade-offs. Rather bringing women and younger people into legislatures may need to be combined with institutional and policy reforms that turn socioeconomic and environmental trade-offs into synergies.
Sub-weekly signatures relate ultrafine aerosols enriched in metals from intensive farming and urban pollution to Kawasaki disease

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Air pollution (urban, industrial or rural) has been linked to a myriad of human ailments despite clear mechanistic associations that are often not thoroughly established. Daily variability of fine aerosols in a surveillance campaign in south Japan shows a striking coevolution between their trace elements (metal and metalloid, MM) content and Kawasaki disease (KD) admissions, suggesting a strong dynamical link. These aerosol MM could instigate an immune response that, along with genetic susceptibility, would lead to KD development. This association may account for over 40% of the total variability in the disease, being dominated by a clear sub-weekly cycle (SWC1). Thanks to both an unprecedented daily KD epidemiological record going back to 1970, light detection and ranging (LIDAR) atmospheric backscattering profiles for the interval 2010–2016 and HYSPLIT simulations with numerous sensitivity analyses, we can trace this SWC1 variability to occur concomitantly from sub-seasonal to interannual timescales in both KD and aerosols. This SWC1 appears to connect or disconnect Japan to air intrusions from above the planetary boundary layer (PBL), having their source in industrial and agricultural areas in NE Asia and points to a stronger case for an agricultural source for the exposure as opposed to urban pollution. The KD maxima always occur in full synchrony with the arrival of very small (<1 µm; PM1) particles showing that ultrafine aerosols appear as a necessary cofactor in the occurrence of KD and sets the field to associate other similar human diseases. Our study shows how signal-detection approaches can be useful to uncover hidden associations between the environment and human health, otherwise unnoticed and help set new early-warning systems for disease prevention.
Effect of graphene dispersed coconut biodiesel on the Micro ED milling characteristics of Inconel 718 alloy
Authors: Arun Pillai K V , Saravana Kumar P 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Micro Electrical discharge milling is a familiar micromachining process for machining of complex microstructures using a cylindrical tool. In this research work, the influence of process parameters namely capacitance, voltage, threshold on response indicators during machining of Inconel 718 with coconut biodiesel and graphene nano powder dispersed coconut biodiesel is investigated in detail. Further, surface-topography of the machined surface was critically examined using scanning electron microscopy and three-dimensional non-contact roughness tester. Graphene nano powder concentration (0.3 g l−1) increased the MRR around 68% compared to coconut biodiesel (BD). A medium order of capacitance (10 nF) offered a maximum MRR irrespective of dielectric used. With higher order capacitance, the minimum TWR is obtained due to longer pulse off duration. High surface finish is achieved with graphene nano powder dispersed coconut BD due to uniformly distributed of craters on the machined surface. Recast layer thickness is 3.08 μm, 1.62 μm and 2.34 μm with coconut biodiesel, 0.3 g l−1 and 0.6 g l−1 graphene particles mixed coconut biodiesel, respectively. Minimum recast layer is observed with graphene particles mixed coconut biodiesel under considered parametric conditions due to lesser eroded particle deposition. EDS results confirm that the sedimentation of graphene nano powder (increase in carbon %) on work surface results in increase in hardness. Crater size, voids and cracks were reduced with graphene nano powder dispersed coconut BD due to uniform distribution of heat energy over machining region. Results showed that the graphene nano powder mixed coconut biodiesel can be the substitute for mineral oil.

Based on the thermodynamic coupling model of multiple microelements in steels, the solid solution and coupling precipitation behavior of Nb-V-N-C system quaternary secondary phase was further verified in microalloyed steels, and combining with the engineering practice in high-strength spring steel FAS3550 containing nanoparticles. According to the thermodynamic calculations, the dissolved V (or Nb) content increased with the increasing addition V (or Nb), while decreased with the increase of addition C, N or Nb (or V). The complete dissolution temperature was 1314 °C, and the effective precipitation temperature of carbonitride was 1060 °C in 0.49%C-0.0060%N-0.03%Nb-0.12%V system spring steel FAS3550, the grains in steel began to coarsen above 1100 °C during heat treatment, and the (Nb, V)(C, N) nanoprecipitates were smaller than 100 nm. The strength and plasticity have been improved simultaneously, and its fatigue life has been increased by 13% after optimizing the heat treatment process.

Abstract
This work aimed to assess the influence of different structured substrates with hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties on micro and nano topographies developed on titanium alloys over pre-osteoblastic cell behavior. Nano topography influences small dimension levels of cell morphology by inducing filopodia formation in cell membranes, irrespectively to the wettability behavior of the surface. Therefore, micro and nanostructured surfaces of titanium-based samples using different techniques of surface modification processing, such as chemical treatments, micro-arc anodic oxidation (MAO), and MAO combined to laser irradiation were developed. Isotropic and anisotropic texture morphologies, wettability, topological parameters and compositional alterations were measured after the surface treatments. Finally, cell viability, adhesion and morphological responses were assessed to investigate the influence of distinct topologies on osteoblastic cells aiming to encounter the conditions to better promote mineralization events. Our study demonstrated that the hydrophilic behavior improves cell adhesion, amplified when effective surface area increases. Surfaces presenting nano topography have a direct influence on cell morphology and play a key role for filopodia formation.
