description: The temporal dynamics of social interactions were shown to influence the spread of disease. Here, we model the conditions of progression and competition for several viral strains, exploring various levels of cross-immunity over temporal networks. We use our interaction-driven contagion model and characterize, using it, several viral variants. Our results, obtained on temporal random networks and on real-world interaction data, demonstrate that temporal dynamics are crucial to determining the competition results. We consider two and three competing pathogens and show the conditions under which a slower pathogen will remain active and create a second wave infecting most of the population. We then show that when the duration of the encounters is considered, the spreading dynamics change significantly. Our results indicate that when considering airborne diseases, it might be crucial to consider the duration of temporal meetings to model the spread of pathogens in a population.

description: Scientific breakthroughs are increasingly powered by advanced computing and data analysis capabilities delivered by high performance computing (HPC) systems. In the meantime, many scientific problems have moved to a level of complexity that the ability of understanding the results, auditing how a result is generated, and reproducing the important experiments or simulation results, is critical to scientists. Enabling such a capability in HPC systems requires an infrastructure for provenance data. In this project, we focus on provenance of jobs, users, nodes/hosts, files and the relationships among them. We developed to collect jobs from schedulers including Slurm and UGE (a component has been integrated into Dell HPC Omnia repository). We leverage jobstats and changelogs to gather file system provenance. We collected data from a 467-node cluster and conducted visual analytics. This project expects to improve the productivity of science in complex HPC simulation and analysis cycles.

description: Anderson localization is the ubiquitous phenomenon of inhibition of transport of classical and quantum waves in a disordered medium. In dimension one, it is well known that all states are localized, implying that the distribution of an initially narrow wave-packet released in a disordered potential will, at long time, decay exponentially on the scale of the localization length. However, the exact shape of the stationary localized distribution differs from a purely exponential profile and has been computed almost fifty years ago by Gogolin. Using the atomic quantum kicked rotor, a paradigmatic quantum simulator of Anderson localization physics, we study this asymptotic distribution by two complementary approaches. First, we discuss the connection of the statistical properties of the system's localized eigenfunctions and their exponential decay with the localization length of the Gogolin distribution. Next, we make use of our experimental platform, realizing an ideal Floquet disordered system, to measure the long-time probability distribution and highlight the very good agreement with the analytical prediction compared to the purely exponential one over 3 orders of magnitude.

description: We present structural measurements of 145 spectroscopically selected intermediate-redshift (z$\sim$0.7), massive ($M_\star \sim 10^{11} \ M_\odot$) post-starburst galaxies from the SQuIGG$\vec{L}$E Sample measured using wide-depth Hyper Suprime-Cam i-band imaging. This deep imaging allows us to probe the sizes and structures of these galaxies, which we compare to a control sample of star forming and quiescent galaxies drawn from the LEGA-C Survey. We find that post-starburst galaxies systematically lie $\sim0.1$ dex below the quiescent mass-size (half-light radius) relation, with a scatter of $\sim0.2$ dex. This finding is bolstered by non-parametric measures, such as the Gini coefficient and the concentration, which also reveal these galaxies to have more compact light profiles than both quiescent and star-forming populations at similar mass and redshift. The sizes of post-starburst galaxies show either negative or no correlation with the time since quenching, such that more recently quenched galaxies are larger or similarly sized. This empirical finding disfavors the formation of post-starburst galaxies via a purely central burst of star formation that simultaneously shrinks the galaxy and shuts off star formation. We show that the central densities of post-starburst and quiescent galaxies at this epoch are very similar, in contrast with their effective radii. The structural properties of z$\sim$0.7 post-starburst galaxies match those of quiescent galaxies that formed in the early universe, suggesting that rapid quenching in the present epoch is driven by a similar mechanism to the one at high redshift.

description: It is shown that the canonical quantization of the free massive Kalb-Ramond and Curtright-Freund Lagrangians leads to the same theory obtained from the canonical quantization of the free Proca and Klein-Gordon Lagrangians. The duality in the presence of interaction is explored in the context of the Feynman rules and beyond. It is pointed out that the equivalence between massive dual models without gauge symmetry is rooted in an ambiguity of coordinate choices.

description: Detecting disclosures of individuals' employment status on social media can provide valuable information to match job seekers with suitable vacancies, offer social protection, or measure labor market flows. However, identifying such personal disclosures is a challenging task due to their rarity in a sea of social media content and the variety of linguistic forms used to describe them. Here, we examine three Active Learning (AL) strategies in real-world settings of extreme class imbalance, and identify five types of disclosures about individuals' employment status (e.g. job loss) in three languages using BERT-based classification models. Our findings show that, even under extreme imbalance settings, a small number of AL iterations is sufficient to obtain large and significant gains in precision, recall, and diversity of results compared to a supervised baseline with the same number of labels. We also find that no AL strategy consistently outperforms the rest. Qualitative analysis suggests that AL helps focus the attention mechanism of BERT on core terms and adjust the boundaries of semantic expansion, highlighting the importance of interpretable models to provide greater control and visibility into this dynamic learning process.

description: Synthetic dimensions have garnered widespread interest for implementing high dimensional classical and quantum dynamics on lower dimensional geometries. Synthetic frequency dimensions, in particular, have been used to experimentally realize a plethora of bulk physics effects, such as effective gauge potentials, nontrivial Hermitian as well as non-Hermitian topology, spin-momentum locking, complex long-range coupling, unidirectional frequency conversion, and four-dimensional lattices. However, in synthetic frequency dimensions there has not been any demonstration of boundary effects which are of paramount importance in topological physics due to the bulk edge correspondence, since systems exhibiting synthetic frequency dimensions do not support well-defined sharp boundaries. Here we theoretically elucidate a method to construct boundaries in the synthetic frequency dimension of dynamically modulated ring resonators by strongly coupling it to an auxiliary ring, and provide an experimental demonstration of this method. We experimentally explore various physics effects associated with the creation of such boundaries in the synthetic frequency dimension, including confinement of the spectrum of light, the discretization of the band structure, and the interaction of such boundaries with the topologically protected one-way chiral modes in a quantum Hall ladder. The incorporation of boundaries allows us to observe topologically robust transport of light along the frequency axis, which shows that the frequency of light can be controlled through topological concepts. Our demonstration of such sharp boundaries fundamentally expands the capability of exploring topological physics, and is also of importance for other applications such as classical and quantum information processing in synthetic frequency dimensions.

description: In this letter, we consider a transportation network with a 100\% penetration rate of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and present an optimal routing approach that takes into account the efficiency achieved in the network by coordinating the CAVs at specific traffic scenarios, e.g., intersections, merging roadways, and roundabouts. To derive the optimal route of a travel request, we use the information of the CAVs that have already received a routing solution. This enables each CAV to consider the traffic conditions on the roads. The solution of any new travel request determines the optimal travel time at each traffic scenario while satisfying all state, control, and safety constraints. We validate the performance of our framework through numerical simulations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to consider the coordination of CAVs in a routing problem.

description: The tattoo information experience reveals possibilities to explore how tattoo images are created as things, what actions lead to the creation of a tattoo image, who is considered a creator of a tattoo image, and how different personal, social and cultural contexts influence creation of information through the tattoo acquisition experience. Based on the findings from nine interviews, the process of tattoo information creation was conceptualized encompassing all stages of the tattoo experience: from the moment the first idea of getting a tattoo emerges to sharing of information about a tattoo. Participants' stories about their tattoo experiences were used to develop a framework of four key phases of tattoo information creation: conceptualizing, verbalizing, visualizing, and pluralizing. These phases occur between four anchors identified in the participants' stories: anticipation, identification, ideation, and creation. This framework can be used to assist future empirical and theoretical research on tattoo information experience.

description: Functional tunability, environmental adaptability, and easy fabrication are highly desired properties in metasurfaces. Here we provide a tunable bilayer metasurface composed of two stacked identical dielectric magnetic mirrors, which are excited by the dominant electric dipole and other magnetic multipoles, exhibiting nonlocal electric field enhancement near the interface and high reflection. Differ from the tunability through the direct superposition of two structures with different functionalities, we achieve the reversible conversion between high reflection and high transmission by manipulating the interlayer coupling near the interface between the two magnetic mirrors. The magnetic mirror effect boosts the interlayer coupling when the interlayer spacing is small. Decreasing the interlayer spacing of the bilayer metasurface leads to stronger interlayer coupling and scattering suppression of the meta-atom, which results in high transmission. On the contrary, increasing the spacing leads to weaker interlayer coupling and scattering enhancement, which results in high reflection. The high transmission of the bilayer metasurface has good robustness due to that the meta-atom with interlayer coupling can maintain the scattering suppression against adjacent meta-atom movement and disordered position perturbation. This work provides a straightforward method (i.e. stacking magnetic mirrors) to design tunable metasurface, shed new light on high-performance optical switches applied in communication and sensing.

description: Due to the high cost and reliability of sensors, the designers of a pump reduce the needed number of sensors for the estimation of the feasible operating point as much as possible. The major challenge to obtain a good estimation is the low amount of data available. Using this amount of data, the performance of the estimation method is not enough to satisfy the client requests. To solve this problem of scarcity of data, getting high quality data is important to obtain a good estimation. Based on these considerations, we develop an active learning framework for estimating the operating point of a Modular Multi Pump used in energy field. In particular we focus on the estimation of the surge distance. We apply Active learning to estimate the surge distance with minimal dataset. Results report that active learning is a valuable technique also for real application.

Low energy SUSY confronted with new measurements of W-boson mass and muon g-2

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The new CDF II measurement of $W$-boson mass shows a 7$σ$ deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction, while the recent FNAL measurement of the muon $g-2$ shows a 4.2$σ$ deviation (combined with the BNL result) from the SM. Both of them strongly indicate new physics beyond the SM. In this work we study the implication of both measurements on low energy supersymmetry. With an extensive exploration of the parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), we find that in the parameter space allowed by current experimental constraints from colliders and dark matter detections, the MSSM can simultaneously explain both measurements on the edge of $2σ$ level, taking theoretical uncertainties into consideration. The favored parameter space, characterized by a compressed spectrum between bino, wino and stau, with the stop being around 1 TeV, may be covered in the near future LHC searches.

description: There is a class of binary post-AGB stars (binary system including a post-AGB star) that are surrounded by Keplerian disks and outflows resulting from gas escaping from the disk. To date, there are seven sources that have been studied in detail through interferometric millimeter-wave maps of CO lines (ALMA/NOEMA). For the cases of the Red Rectangle, IW Carinae, IRAS 08544-4431, and AC Herculis, it is found that around greater than 85% of the total nebular mass is located in the disk with Keplerian dynamics. The remainder of the nebular mass is located in an expanding component. This outflow is probably a disk wind consisting of material escaping from the rotating disk. These sources are the disk-dominated nebulae. On the contrary, our maps and modeling of 89 Herculis, IRAS 19125+0343, and R Scuti, which allowed us to study their morphology, kinematics, and mass distribution, suggest that, in these sources, the outflow clearly is the dominant component of the nebula (around 75% of the total nebular mass), resulting in a new subclass of nebulae around binary post-AGB stars: the outflow-dominated sources.Besides CO, the chemistry of this type of source has been practically unknown thus far. We also present a very deep single-dish radio molecular survey in the 1.3, 2, 3, 7, and 13 mm bands (around 600 h of telescope time). Our results and detections allow us to classify our sources as O- or C-rich. We also conclude that the calculated abundances of the detected molecular species other than CO are particularly low, compared with AGB stars. This fact is very significant in those sources where the rotating disk is the dominant component of the nebula.

description: In this thesis, we aim to study the boundedness of some singular integrals with nonsmooth kernels on nondoubling spaces. More specifically, we study the boundedness of the maximal functions associated with the heat semi-group, the holomorphic functional calculus of Laplace transform type and the square function in terms of the Littlewood-Paley decomposition on nondoubling parabolic manifolds with ends. It should be pointed out that, in our setting, the doubling condition of the underlying spaces as well as the regularity estimates of the kernels are missing.

Nowadays, the computational material techniques with the advantage of low research cost are being widely utilized for understanding, effectively screening and discovering of battery materials. In consideration of the rising importance and contributions of computational studying on the glassy SSE materials, here, this work summarizes the common computational methods utilized for studying the amorphous inorganic materials, review the recent progress in computational investigations of the lithium and sodium sulfide-type glasses for solid-state batteries, and outlines our understandings of the challenges and future perspective on them. This review would facilitate and accelerate the future computational screening and discovering more glassy-state SSE materials for the solid-state batteries.

Numerous interesting black hole spacetimes have been analyzed in terms of elliptic functions. However, the presence of a cosmological constant, higher dimensions or alternative gravity theories often necessitate an analysis in terms of hyperelliptic functions. Here we review the method and current status for solving the geodesic equations for the general hyperelliptic case, illustrating it with set a of examples of genus $g=2$.

description: Several biases and thresholds challenge the reach of girls in technology-related activities. For this poster we collected and structured existing research and good practices on how to reach girls within projects in the field educational robotics, makerspaces, coding and STEM in general. The poster presents general guidelines for future activities with a potential higher rate of participating girls in makerspace settings. The guidelines suggest: Announce maker activity gender-sensitive; set girls' quota and low thresholds; integrate female tutors and role models; give collaborative prompts and assignments; apply gender mainstreaming in makerspaces.

description: Cosmic rays (CRs) are an important energy source in the circum-galactic medium (CGM) that impact the multi-phase gas structure and dynamics. We perform two-dimensional CR-magnetohydrodynamic simulations to investigate the role of CRs in accelerating multi-phase gas formed via thermal instability. We compare outflows driven by CRs to those driven by a hot wind with equivalent momentum. We find that CRs driven outflow produces lower density contrast between cold and hot gas due to non-thermal pressure support, and yields a more filamentary cloud morphology. While entrainment in a hot wind can lead to cold gas increasing due to efficient cooling, CRs tend to suppress cold gas growth. The mechanism of this suppression depends on magnetic field strength, with CRs either reducing cooling or shredding the clouds by differential acceleration. Despite the suppression of cold gas growth, CRs are able to launch the cold clouds to observed velocities without rapid destruction. The dynamical interaction between CRs ad multi-phase gas is also sensitive to the magnetic field strength. In relatively strong fields, the CRs are more important for direct momentum input to cold gas. In relatively weak fields, the CRs impact gas primarily by heating, which modifies gas pressure.

description: Tandem telecollaboration is a pedagogy used in second language learning where mixed groups of students meet online in videoconferencing sessions to practice their conversational skills in their target language. We have built and deployed a system called L2 Learning to support post-session review and self-reflection on students participation in such meetings. We automatically compute a metric called Conversational Volatility which quantifies the amount of interaction among participants, indicating how dynamic or flat the conversations were. Our analysis on more than 100 hours of video recordings involving 28 of our students indicates that conversations do not get more dynamic as meetings progress, that there is a wide variety of levels of interaction across students and student groups, and the speaking in French appears to have more animated conversations than speaking in English, though the reasons for that are not clear.

description: Here, we report a case study implementation of reinforcement learning (RL) to automate operations in the scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) workflow. To do so, we design a virtual, prototypical RL environment to test and develop a network to autonomously align the electron beam without prior knowledge. Using this simulator, we evaluate the impact of environment design and algorithm hyperparameters on alignment accuracy and learning convergence, showing robust convergence across a wide hyperparameter space. Additionally, we deploy a successful model on the microscope to validate the approach and demonstrate the value of designing appropriate virtual environments. Consistent with simulated results, the on-microscope RL model achieves convergence to the goal alignment after minimal training. Overall, the results highlight that by taking advantage of RL, microscope operations can be automated without the need for extensive algorithm design, taking another step towards augmenting electron microscopy with machine learning methods.

description: We prove the almost sure convergence to zero of the fluctuations of the free energy, resp. local free energies, in a class of disordered mean-field spin systems that generalize the Hopfield model in two ways: 1) Multi-spin interactions are permitted and 2) the random variables ξμi i describing the "patterns" can have arbitrary distributions with mean zero and finite 4+∈-th moments. The number of patterns, M, is allowed to be an arbitrary multiple of the systemsize. This generalizes a previous result of Bovier, Gayrard, and Picco [BGP3] for the standard Hopfield model, and improves a result of Feng and Tirozzi [FT] that required M to be a finite constant. Note that the convergence of the mean of the free energy is not proven.

description: Resumen La pancreatitis aguda es un proceso inflamatorio reversible [1]. Por otro lado, la hipertrigliceridemia es la concentración excesiva de triglicéridos en el torrente sanguíneo, es causada por factores genéticos como ambientales como obesidad, diabetes no controlada, embarazo. Esta es la tercera causa de pancreatitis aguda después de los cálculos biliares y el alcoholismo [2]. En la pancreatitis aguda por hipertrigliceridemia por lo general hay una alteración subyacente del metabolismo lipidémico. Esta se define por la presencia de altos niveles de triglicéridos y/o plasma lechoso, suele desencadenarse por niveles de triglicéridos superiores a 1,000 mg/dl. Los pacientes con hipertrigliceridemia tiene un riesgo de desarrollar pancreatitis del 1.5% cuando los triglicéridos se elevan a lo ya mencionado el porcentaje asciende al 20.2% [3]. Se expondrán dos casos clínicos de pancreatitis severas inducidas por hiperlipidemia, las cuales fueron tratadas con terapia insulina con una evolución y respuesta clínica adecuada. Ambos casos son de pacientes mujeres de una edad superior a los 30, expondremos su sintomatología, laboratorios realizados, el diagnostico final y un breve seguimiento de la patología [1].

description: Spatial optimization problems (SOPs) are characterized by spatial relationships governing the decision variables, objectives, and/or constraint functions. In this article, we focus on a specific type of SOP called spatial partitioning, which is a combinatorial problem due to the presence of discrete spatial units. Exact optimization methods do not scale with the size of the problem, especially within practicable time limits. This motivated us to develop population-based metaheuristics for solving such SOPs. However, the search operators employed by these population-based methods are mostly designed for real-parameter continuous optimization problems. For adapting these methods to SOPs, we apply domain knowledge in designing spatially-aware search operators for efficiently searching through the discrete search space while preserving the spatial constraints. To this end, we put forward a simple yet effective algorithm called swarm-based spatial memetic algorithm (SPATIAL) and test it on the school (re)districting problem. Detailed experimental investigations are performed on real-world datasets to evaluate the performance of SPATIAL. Besides, ablation studies are performed to understand the role of the individual components of SPATIAL. Additionally, we discuss how SPATIAL~is helpful in the real-life planning process and its applicability to different scenarios and motivate future research directions.

description: We characterize for the first time the performances of IBM quantum chips as quantum batteries, specifically addressing the single-qubit Armonk processor. By exploiting the Pulse access enabled to some of the IBM Quantum processors via the Qiskit package, we investigate advantages and limitations of different profiles for classical drives used to charge these miniaturized batteries, establishing the optimal compromise between charging time and stored energy. Moreover, we consider the role played by various possible initial conditions on the functioning of the quantum batteries. As main result of our analysis, we observe that unavoidable errors occurring in the initialization phase of the qubit, which can be detrimental for quantum computing applications, only marginally affects energy transfer and storage. This can lead counter-intuitively to improvements of the performances. This is a strong indication of the fact that IBM quantum devices are already in the proper range of parameters to be considered as good and stable quantum batteries, comparable to state of the art devices recently discussed in literature.
