description: Introduction: Variation in alcohol availability is an important driver of levels of consumption and harm, with recent increases in online alcohol home delivery use expanding availability. There is limited research on the impacts of these changes and the characteristics of consumers who use alcohol home delivery. Methods: This study presents findings from an online survey (n = 465) of Western Australian adults who had purchased alcohol for home delivery within the past 6 months. Analyses compared high-risk and low-risk drinkers on use of, and exposure to, alcohol home delivery. Results: Compared to low-risk drinkers, high-risk drinkers were significantly more likely to make more frequent online purchases (odds ratio 5.42), utilise same day delivery (odds ratio 2.91) and purchase through specialised online-only retailers (odds ratio 2.69). High-risk drinkers also reported receiving deliveries while intoxicated more often (odds ratio 11.62), and ordering alcohol for delivery to continue a current drinking session (odds ratio 7.47). High-risk drinkers also received advertising for alcohol home delivery more frequently (odds ratio 1.60) than low-risk drinkers. High-risk drinkers also ordered larger quantities of alcohol than low-risk drinkers (M = 49 vs. 32 standard drinks). Discussion and Conclusions: Findings from this study indicate that these services are popular with high-risk drinkers and potentially undermine other policy efforts to reduce drinking. Within Australia, stronger legislation (such as mandatory delay between order and delivery) and monitoring (e.g., test purchasing for compliance) are recommended.

description: Providing initial conditions is an essential procedure for numerical simulations of galaxies. The initial conditions for idealised individual galaxies in $N$-body simulations should resemble observed galaxies and be dynamically stable for time scales much longer than their characteristic dynamical times. However, generating a galaxy model ab initio as a system in dynamical equilibrium is a difficult task, since a galaxy contains several components, including a bulge, disc, and halo. Moreover, it is desirable that the initial-condition generator be fast and easy to use. We have now developed an initial-condition generator for galactic $N$-body simulations that satisfies these requirements. The developed generator adopts a distribution-function-based method, and it supports various kinds of density models, including custom-tabulated inputs and the presence of more than one disc. We tested the dynamical stability of systems generated by our code, representing early- and late-type galaxies, with $N=$~2,097,152 and 8,388,608 particles, respectively, and we found that the model galaxies maintain their initial distributions for at least 1~Gyr. The execution times required to generate the two models were $8.5$ and $221.7$ seconds, respectively, which is negligible compared to typical execution times for $N$-body simulations. The code is provided as open-source software and is publicly and freely available at \url{https://bitbucket.org/ymiki/magi}.

description: In attempting to match QCD with Nature, it is necessary to confront the many complexities of strong, nonlinear dynamics in relativistic quantum field theory, e.g. the loss of particle number conservation, the frame and scale dependence of the explanations and interpretations of observable processes, and the evolving character of the relevant degrees-of-freedom. The peculiarities of QCD ensure that it is also the only known fundamental theory with the capacity to sustain massless elementary degrees-of-freedom, gluons and quarks; and yet gluons and quarks are predicted to acquire mass dynamically so that the only massless systems in QCD are its composite Nambu-Goldstone bosons. All other everyday bound states possess nuclear-size masses, far in excess of anything that can directly be tied to the Higgs boson. These observations highlight fundamental questions within the Standard Model: what is the source of the mass for the vast bulk of visible matter in the Universe, how is its appearance connected with confinement; how is this mass distributed within hadrons and does the distribution differ from one hadron to another? This contribution sketches insights drawn using modern methods for the continuum bound-state problem in QCD, and how they have been informed by empirical information on the hadron spectrum and nucleon-to-resonance transition form factors.

description: Laser-driven X-ray sources are an emerging alternative to conventional X-ray tubes and synchrotron sources. We present results on microtomographic X-ray imaging of a cancellous human bone sample using synchrotron-like betatron radiation. The source is driven by a 100-TW-class titanium-sapphire laser system and delivers over $10^8$ X-ray photons per second. Compared to earlier studies, the acquisition time for an entire tomographic dataset has been reduced by more than an order of magnitude. Additionally, the reconstruction quality benefits from the use of statistical iterative reconstruction techniques. Depending on the desired resolution, tomographies are thereby acquired within minutes, which is an important milestone towards real-life applications of laser-plasma X-ray sources.

description: We investigate the continuum limit scaling of the scalar condensate in the $N_f=2$ Schwinger model on the lattice. We employ maximally twisted mass Wilson fermions and overlap fermions. We compute the scalar condensate by taking the trace of the propagator (direct method) and by utilizing the integrated Ward-Takahashi identity. While the scalar condensate comes out consistent using these two methods for a given kind of lattice fermions, we find --quite surprisingly-- large discrepancies for the scalar condensate between twisted mass and overlap fermions. These discrepancies are only resolved when using the point split current for twisted mass fermions.

Flow and Thermal Fields Investigation in Divergent Micro/Nano Channels

description: The present work is related to the study of the nitrogen gas flow through diverging micro and nano-channels. The direct simulation Monte-Carlo (DSMC) method has been used to study the flow. The Simplified Bernoulli Trials (SBT) collision scheme has been employed to reduce the computational costs and required amounts of the computer resources. The effects of various divergence angles on flow and thermal fields have been studied for different Knudsen numbers in late-slip and early-transition regimes. The inlet-to-outlet pressure ratio has been set to 2.5 for micro and nano-channels with a uniform constant wall temperature. By analyzing the numerical results no flow separation has been found due to slip at the wall which is different than flow behavior in continuum regime. The results indicate that the viscous component has a relatively large contribution to the overall pressure drop and flow behavior. It observed that for low divergence angles the effects of pressure forces dominate the effects of shear stress and divergence angle and cause the flow to accelerate along the channel while by increasing the divergence angle and therefore the effects of flow expansion, the flow decelerates along the channel. The mass flow rate through channel increases by increasing the divergence angle. Cold-to-hot heat transfer has been observed in diverging micro and nano-channels. In order to investigate the thermal behavior in diverging micro and nano-channels, the results have been compared to weakly non-linear constitutive laws derived from Boltzmann's equation.

description: Complex software systems require expressive notations for representing their software architectures. Two competing paths have emerged, one using a specialized notation for architecture--or architecture description language (ADL), the other using notations applied generally throughout design, such as UML. The latter has a number of benefits, including familiarity to developers, close mappings to implementations, and commercial tool support. However, it remains an open question how best to use object-oriented notations for architectural description and whether they are sufficiently expressive as currently defined. In this paper, we present a mapping between Acme, a notation designed for expressing architectures, and the UML Real-Time Profile--an object-oriented design notation. Specifically, we describe (a) how to map Acme descriptions to descriptions in the UML Real-Time Profile, and (b) the places where this mapping breaks down.

description: Cells are known to utilize biochemical noise to probabilistically switch between distinct gene expression states. We demonstrate that such noise-driven switching is dominated by tails of probability distributions and is therefore exponentially sensitive to changes in physiological parameters such as transcription and translation rates. However, provided mRNA lifetimes are short, switching can still be accurately simulated using protein-only models of gene expression. Exponential sensitivity limits the robustness of noise-driven switching, suggesting cells may use other mechanisms in order to switch reliably.

description: One-dimensional topological edge modes are usually studied considering the interface between two different semi infinite periodic crystals (PCs) with inverted band structure around the Dirac point. Here we consider the case where the two PCs are finite, constituting an open scattering system, and we study the influence of the size of this finite structure on the interface mode by inspecting the complex resonances. First we show the complex resonance distribution corresponding to the band inversion around the Dirac point. Perturbations from the Dirac point display the emergence of the localized interface mode. We also report on a remarkable robustness of the interface mode as the system size varies which persists even for the smallest possible size.

description: The recent AvERA cosmological simulation of Rácz et al. (2017) has a $Λ\mathrm{CDM}$-like expansion history and removes the tension between local and Planck (cosmic microwave background) Hubble constants. We contrast the AvERA prediction of the integrated Sachs--Wolfe (ISW) effect with that of $Λ\mathrm{CDM}$. The linear ISW effect is proportional to the derivative of the growth function, thus it is sensitive to small differences in the expansion histories of the respective models. We create simulated ISW maps tracing the path of light-rays through the Millennium XXL cosmological simulation, and perform theoretical calculations of the ISW power spectrum. AvERA predicts a significantly higher ISW effect than $Λ\mathrm{CDM}$, $A=1.93-5.29$ times larger depending on the $l$ index of the spherical power spectrum, which could be utilized to definitively differentiate the models. We also show that AvERA predicts an opposite-sign ISW effect in the redshift range $z \approx 1.5 - 4.4$, in clear contrast with $Λ\mathrm{CDM}$. Finally, we compare our ISW predictions with previous observations. While at present these cannot distinguish between the two models due to large error bars, and lack of internal consistency suggesting systematics, ISW probes from future surveys will tightly constrain the models.

description: To every directed graph $E$ one can associate a \emph{graph inverse semigroup} $G(E)$, where elements roughly correspond to possible paths in $E$. These semigroups generalize polycylic monoids, and they arise in the study of Leavitt path algebras, Cohn path algebras, Cuntz-Krieger $C^*$-algebras, and Toeplitz $C^*$-algebras. We investigate topologies that turn $G(E)$ into a topological semigroup. For instance, we show that in any such topology that is Hausdorff, $G(E)\setminus \{0\}$ must be discrete for any directed graph $E$. On the other hand, $G(E)$ need not be discrete in a Hausdorff semigroup topology, and for certain graphs $E$, $G(E)$ admits a $T_1$ semigroup topology in which $G(E)\setminus \{0\}$ is not discrete. We also describe, in various situations, the algebraic structure and possible cardinality of the closure of $G(E)$ in larger topological semigroups.

A linearization of the nonlinear electrodynamics around the static solution is investigated. The appropriate problem for linear waves around the static solution is considered. This wave part of the particle solution is considered to provide the appropriate wave properties for the particle. It has been found that the right (experimentally proved) formula for frequency of this wave appears theoretically for the static solution with ring singularity.

description: A nice paper by Morrison demonstrates the recent convergence of opinion that has taken place concerning the graviton propagator on de Sitter background. We here discuss the few points which remain under dispute. First, the inevitable decay of tachyonic scalars really does result in their 2-point functions breaking de Sitter invariance. This is obscured by analytic continuation techniques which produce formal solutions to the propagator equation that are not propagators. Second, Morrison's de Sitter invariant solution for the spin two sector of the graviton propagator involves derivatives of the scalar propagator at $M^2 = 0$, where it is not meromorphic unless de Sitter breaking is permitted. Third, de Sitter breaking does not require zero modes. Fourth, the ambiguity Morrison claims in the equation for the spin two structure function is fixed by requiring it to derive from a mode sum. Fifth, Morrison's spin two sector is not "physically equivalent" to ours because their coincidence limits differ. Finally, it is only the noninvariant propagator that gets the time independence and scale invariance of the tensor power spectrum correctly.
description: 40 pages, 2 figures (6 figure files), uses LaTeX2e, Version 2 expanded to 43 pages, principally in section 3 to show that even the closed coordinate mode sums break de Sitter invariance and that claims to the contrary are based upon the (admitted) use of negative normed states

description: We demonstrate that the interfacial exchange coupling in ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic (FM/AFM) systems induces symmetry-breaking of the Spin-Orbit (SO) effects. This has been done by studying the field and angle dependencies of anisotropic magnetoresistance and vectorialresolved magnetization hysteresis loops, measured simultaneously and reproduced with numerical simulations. We show how the induced unidirectional magnetic anisotropy at the FM/AFM interface results in strong asymmetric transport behaviors, which are chiral around the magnetization hard-axis direction. Similar asymmetric features are anticipated in other SO-driven phenomena.

description: Scheduling policies that favor small jobs have received growing attention due to their superior performance with respect to mean delay, e.g., Shortest Remaining Processing Time (SRPT) and Preemptive Shortest Job First (PSJF). In this paper, we study the delay distribution of a generalization of the class of scheduling policies called SMART (because policies in it have “SMAll Response Times”), which includes SRPT, PSJF, and a range of practical variants, in a discrete-time queueing system under the many sources large deviations regime. Our analysis of SMART in this regime (large number of flows and large capacity) hinges on a novel two-dimensional (2-D) queueing framework that employs virtual queues and total ordering of jobs. We prove that all SMART policies have the same asymptotic delay distribution as SRPT, i.e., the delay distribution has the same decay rate. In addition, we illustrate the improvements SMART policies make over First Come First Serve (FCFS) and Processor Sharing (PS). Our 2-D queueing technique is generalizable to other policies as well. As an example, we show how the Foreground-Background (FB) policy can be analyzed using a 2-D queueing framework. FB is a policy, not contained in SMART, which manages to bias towards small jobs without knowing which jobs are small in advance.

description: Silicon dioxide or silica, normally existing in various bulk crystalline and amorphous forms, is recently found to possess a two-dimensional structure. In this work, we use ab initio calculation and evolutionary algorithm to unveil three new 2D silica structures whose themal, dynamical and mechanical stabilities are compared with many typical bulk silica. In particular, we find that all these three 2D silica have large in-plane negative Poisson's ratios with the largest one being double of penta-graphene and three times of borophenes. The negative Poisson's ratio originates from the interplay of lattice symmetry and Si-O tetrahedron symmetry. Slab silica is also an insulating 2D material, with the highest electronic band gap (> 7 eV) among reported 2D structures. These exotic 2D silica with in-plane negative Poisson's ratios and widest band gaps are expected to have great potential applications in nanomechanics and nanoelectronics.

description: Transition to the concept of professional risk management assumes the transfer of focus from measures of response to accidents after they have happened to activities for preventive measures, i.e. risk management of workers' health. The strategy of "reactive" response within the framework of the traditional system of managing occupational safety of workers focused primarily on compensating for the negative consequences of accidents. However, it does not focus on eliminating the systemic causes of their occurrence and, as a result, does not lead to positive changes in reducing traumas and injuries. The results of the analysis of the socio-economic efficiency of this strategy suggest the need for a transition to a different type of occupational safety management – which is "proactive", therefore the priorities are not the management of "occupational environment", but the management of "employee work safety", based on identification and assessment of professional risks. The calculation of the economic efficiency of measures for employee protection and the prevention of industrial injuries on the example of agricultural workers in the Kurgan region was the aim of the present study.

description: Abstract: "We want to create interactive surface design systems which provide intuitive interfaces to parametric surface representations. In this paper, we show how the technique of Differential Manipulation can be used in constructing such interfaces. It allows surface manipulation issues to be treated separately from surface representation issues. Arbitrary differentiable functions of representation parameters can be used to control the surface. Constraint and optimization techniques can be used to enhance interaction and control many surface degrees of freedom at once. We provide examples of the technique's use in our interactive surface modeling program."

description: Ultrafaint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are typically assumed to have simple, stellar populations with star formation ending at reionization. Yet as the observations of these galaxies continue to improve, their star formation histories (SFHs) are revealed to be more complicated than previously thought. In this paper, we study how star formation, chemical enrichment, and mixing proceed in small, dark matter halos at early times using a high-resolution, cosmological, hydrodynamical simulation. The goals are to inform the future use of analytic models and to explore observable properties of the simulated halos in the context of UFD data. Specifically, we look at analytic approaches that might inform metal enrichment within and beyond small galaxies in the early Universe. We find that simple assumptions for modeling the extent of supernova-driven winds agree with the simulation on average whereas inhomogeneous mixing and gas flows have a large effect on the spread in simulated stellar metallicities. In the context of the UFDs, this work demonstrates that simulations can form halos with a complex SFH and a large spread in the metallicity distribution function within a few hundred Myr in the early Universe. In particular, bursty and continuous star formation are seen in the simulation and both scenarios have been argued from the data. Spreads in the simulated metallicities, however remain too narrow and too metal-rich when compared to the UFDs. Future work is needed to help reduce these discrepancies and advance our interpretation of the data.

Error Exponents of Erasure/List Decoding Revisited via Moments of Distance Enumerators

description: The analysis of random coding error exponents pertaining to erasure/list decoding, due to Forney, is revisited. Instead of using Jensen's inequality as well as some other inequalities in the derivation, we demonstrate that an exponentially tight analysis can be carried out by assessing the relevant moments of a certain distance enumerator. The resulting bound has the following advantages: (i) it is at least as tight as Forney's bound, (ii) under certain symmetry conditions associated with the channel and the random coding distribution, it is simpler than Forney's bound in the sense that it involves an optimization over one parameter only (rather than two), and (iii) in certain special cases, like the binary symmetric channel (BSC), the optimum value of this parameter can be found in closed form, and so, there is no need to conduct a numerical search. We have not found yet, however, a numerical example where this new bound is strictly better than Forney's bound. This may provide an additional evidence to support Forney's conjecture that his bound is tight for the average code. We believe that the technique we suggest in this paper can be useful in simplifying, and hopefully also improving, exponential error bounds in other problem settings as well.

description: We answer two questions of Hindman, Steprāns and Strauss, namely we prove that every strongly summable ultrafilter on an abelian group is sparse and has the trivial sums property. Moreover we show that in most cases the sparseness of the given ultrafilter is a consequence of its being isomorphic to a union ultrafilter. However, this does not happen in all cases: we also construct (assuming Martin's Axiom for countable partial orders, i.e. $\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal M)=\mathfrak c$), on the Boolean group, a strongly summable ultrafilter that is not additively isomorphic to any union ultrafilter.

description: M dwarfs are the most numerous stars in our Galaxy with masses between approximately 0.5 and 0.1 solar mass. Many of them show surface activity qualitatively similar to our Sun and generate flares, high X-ray fluxes, and large-scale magnetic fields. Such activity is driven by a dynamo powered by the convective motions in their interiors. Understanding properties of stellar magnetic fields in these stars finds a broad application in astrophysics, including, e.g., theory of stellar dynamos and environment conditions around planets that may be orbiting these stars. Most stars with convective envelopes follow a rotation-activity relationship where various activity indicators saturate in stars with rotation periods shorter than a few days. The activity gradually declines with rotation rate in stars rotating more slowly. It is thought that due to a tight empirical correlation between X-ray and magnetic flux, the stellar magnetic fields will also saturate, to values around ~4kG. Here we report the detection of magnetic fields above the presumed saturation limit in four fully convective M-dwarfs. By combining results from spectroscopic and polarimetric studies we explain our findings in terms of bistable dynamo models: stars with the strongest magnetic fields are those in a dipole dynamo state, while stars in a multipole state cannot generate fields stronger than about four kilogauss. Our study provides observational evidence that dynamo in fully convective M dwarfs generates magnetic fields that can differ not only in the geometry of their large scale component, but also in the total magnetic energy.

description: We review the classical observational results for isotopic abundance variations for several elements in CP stars. We concentrate on the "newest" anomaly, in calcium. The cosmically very rare isotope, Ca-48 can rival and even dominate the more common, alpha nuclide, Ca-40. Relevant examples are found in the hot, non-magnetic HgMn stars, and the field horizontal-branch star, Feige 86. The calcium anomaly is also present in cool, magnetic stars, including the notorious HD 101065, Przybylski's star.

description: We address a two-dimensional parity-time (PT)-symmetric structure built as a chain of waveguides, where all waveguides except for the central one are conservative, while the central one is divided into two halves with gain and losses. We show that such a system admits bound states in the continuum (BICs) whose properties vary drastically with the orientation of the line separating amplifying and absorbing domains, which sets the direction of internal energy flow. When the flow is perpendicular to the chain of the waveguides, narrow BICs emerge when the standard defect mode, which is initially located in the finite gap, collides with another mode in a standard symmetry breaking scenario and its propagation constant enters the continuous spectrum upon increase of the strength of gain/losses. In contrast, when the energy flow is parallel to the chain of the waveguides, the symmetry gets broken even for a small strength of the gain/losses. In that case, the most rapidly growing mode emerges inside the continuous spectrum and realizes a weakly localized BIC. All BICs found here are the most rapidly growing modes, therefore they can be excited from noisy inputs and, importantly, should dominate the beam dynamics in experiments.

description: In this paper we consider techniques to identify and remove redundant predicates during predicate ion. We give three criteria for identifying redundancy. A predicate is redundant if any of the following three holds (i) the predicate is equivalent to a propositional function of other predicates. (ii) removing the predicate preserves safety properties satisfied by the abstract model (iii) removing it preserves bisimulation equivalence. We also show how to efficiently remove the redundant predicates once they are identified. Experimental results are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods.

description: We describe a new radial velocity survey of T Tauri stars and present the first results. Our search is motivated by an interest in detecting massive young planets, as well as investigating the origin of the brown dwarf desert. As part of this survey, we discovered large-amplitude, periodic, radial velocity variations in the spectrum of the weak line T Tauri star LkCa 19. Using line bisector analysis and a new simulation of the effect of star spots on the photometric and radial velocity variability of T Tauri stars, we show that our measured radial velocities for LkCa19 are fully consistent with variations caused by the presence of large star spots on this rapidly rotating young star. These results illustrate the level of activity-induced radial velocity noise associated with at least some very young stars. This activity-induced noise will set lower limits on the mass of a companion detectable around LkCa 19, and similarly active young stars.

description: Nanoscale magnetic tunnel junction plays a pivotal role in magnetoresistive random access memories. Successful implementation depends on a simultaneous achievement of low switching current for the magnetization switching by spin-transfer torque and high thermal stability, along with a continuous reduction of junction size. Perpendicular-easy-axis CoFeB/MgO stacks possessing interfacial anisotropy have paved the way down to 20-nm scale, below which a new approach needs to be explored. Here we show magnetic tunnel junctions that satisfy the requirements at ultrafine scale by revisiting shape anisotropy, which is a classical part of magnetic anisotropy but has not been fully utilized in the current perpendicular systems. Magnetization switching solely driven by current is achieved for junctions smaller than 10 nm where sufficient thermal stability is provided by shape anisotropy without adopting new material systems. This work is expected to push forward the development of magnetic tunnel junctions towards single-digit-nm-scale nano-magnetics/spintronics.
