description: The Kepler mission has to date found almost 6,000 planetary transit-like signals, utilizing three years of data for over 170,000 stars at extremely high photometric precision. Due to its design, contamination from eclipsing binaries, variable stars, and other transiting planets results in a significant number of these signals being false positives. This directly affects the determination of the occurrence rate of Earth-like planets in our Galaxy, as well as other planet population statistics. In order to detect as many of these false positives as possible, we perform ephemeris matching among all transiting planet, eclipsing binary, and variable star sources. We find that 685 Kepler Objects of Interest - 12% of all those analyzed - are false positives as a result of contamination, due to 409 unique parent sources. Of these, 118 have not previously been identified by other methods. We estimate that ~35% of KOIs are false positives due to contamination, when performing a first-order correction for observational bias. Comparing single-planet candidate KOIs to multi-planet candidate KOIs, we find an observed false positive fraction due to contamination of 16% and 2.4% respectively, bolstering the existing evidence that multi-planet KOIs are significantly less likely to be false positives. We also analyze the parameter distributions of the ephemeris matches and derive a simple model for the most common type of contamination in the Kepler field. We find that the ephemeris matching technique is able to identify low signal-to-noise false positives that are difficult to identify with other vetting techniques. We expect false positive KOIs to become more frequent when analyzing more quarters of Kepler data, and note that many of them will not be able to be identified based on Kepler data alone.

The interdisciplinary research carried out at this and on other coeval sections such as Aghia Triada and Vlichos on Hydra island, Greece (Muttoni et al., in prep.) is aimed at correlating in detail the well- known Tethyan biozonation to a geomagnetic polarity sequence of reversals for the construction of a standard Triassic time scale.

description: In recent years, significant advancements have been made in text-driven 3D content generation. However, several challenges remain. In practical applications, users often provide extremely simple text inputs while expecting high-quality 3D content. Generating optimal results from such minimal text is a difficult task due to the strong dependency of text-to-3D models on the quality of input prompts. Moreover, the generation process exhibits high variability, making it difficult to control. Consequently, multiple iterations are typically required to produce content that meets user expectations, reducing generation efficiency. To address this issue, we propose GPT-4V for self-optimization, which significantly enhances the efficiency of generating satisfactory content in a single attempt. Furthermore, the controllability of text-to-3D generation methods has not been fully explored. Our approach enables users to not only provide textual descriptions but also specify additional conditions, such as style, edges, scribbles, poses, or combinations of multiple conditions, allowing for more precise control over the generated 3D content. Additionally, during training, we effectively integrate multi-view information, including multi-view depth, masks, features, and images, to address the common Janus problem in 3D content generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves robust generalization, facilitating the efficient and controllable generation of high-quality 3D content.

description: An object called G2 was recently discovered moving towards the supermassive black hole in the Galactic Center. G2 emits infrared (IR) lines and continuum, which allows constraining its properties. The question is still unresolved whether G2 has a central windy star or it is a coreless cloud. Assuming the object is a cloud originating near the apocenter I perform line/continuum IR diagnostics, revisit estimates of non-thermal emission from pericenter passage, and speculate about future observational prospects. This work is partially reported in arXiv:1309.2282 and partially consists of new ideas discussed at the conference.

Creators: name: Cooper, Ann
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1993

description: The career of Henry Cole, a distinguished Victorian civil servant, is traced from 1823 to 1873. The utilitarian programme which he followed and the circle of friends, colleagues and acquaintances with whom he worked are explored through scrutiny of the major events and institutions with which he became involved. As a young man Cole became a minor member of the group of young radicals centred on John Stuart Mill. Cole held to his utilitarian ideals throughout his long career during which he initiated the reform of the Record Commission, made significant contributions to the success of the Great Exhibition, engineered the restructuring of the Schools of Design and the expansion of the Department of Science and Art, promoted the exhibitions of 1862 and 1871-4 and was the man chiefly responsible for the creation of the museums area of South Kensington.
Paleomagnetism of the Lower Devonian Traveler Felsite and the Acadian orogeny in the New England Appalachians

description: A suite of felsic extrusive rocks from the Lower Devonian Traveler Felsite, northcentral Maine (46.1°N lat., 68.9°W long.) was collected for paleomagnetic study: 28 samples from 5 sites in the (lower) Pogy member, 56 samples from 10 sites in the (upper) Black Cat member, and 13 samples from 10 cobbles in the basal conglomerate of the overlying Trout Valley Formation. Characteristic magnetizations based on AF demagnetization analyses and supported by thermal studies give a formation mean direction, after simple correction for bedding tilt, of D = 25.2°, I = -20.2°, α₉₅ = 10.6° for 13 sites in the Traveler Felsite. The occurrence of normal and reversed magnetozones under stratigraphic control and the antiparallel directions of the polarity units following the tilt correction indicate an acquisition of remanence near the time of formation of the rock units. The mean direction corresponds to a (south) paleopole position of 29°S lat., 262°E long. (δp, δm = 6°, 11°) for the Traveler Felsite. This pole position is in close agreement with poles from two other rock units of similar age from the same lithostratigraphic belt in the northern Appalachians. The mean of these three poles is distinct from Late Silurian and Middle Devonian poles from cratonic North America (Laurentia) and from Early Devonian results from the Acadia displaced terrane, suggesting that this area constituted a separate tectonic unit during the Early Devonian. We propose a tectonic model in which a "Traveler terrane" is rotated 20° to 30° while converging with Laurentia and undergoing deformation during the Early to Middle Devonian Acadian orogeny.

description: In this paper we consider interacting particle systems which are frequently used to model collective behavior in animal swarms and other applications. We study the stability of orientationally aligned formations called flock solutions, one of the typical patterns emerging from such dynamics. We provide an analysis showing that the nonlinear stability of flocks in second-order models entirely depends on the linear stability of the first-order aggregation equation. Flocks are shown to be nonlinearly stable as a family of states under reasonable assumptions on the interaction potential. Furthermore, we numerically verify that commonly used potentials satisfy these hypotheses and investigate the nonlinear stability of flocks by an extensive case-study of uniform perturbations.

Late Paleozoic motions of the Meguma Terrane, Nova Scotia: New paleomagnetic evidence

description: Three rock units from southern Nova Scotia were sampled for a paleomagnetic study of the relationship of the Meguma terrane to the Atlantic-bordering continents during the Paleozoic. These include the Siluro-Ordovician White Rock Formation volcanics, sandstones of the Lower Devonian Torbrook Formation and red beds of the Lower Carboniferous Cheverie Formation. Progressive thermal and alternating field demagnetization of the White Rock basalts and rhyolites reveal a single component magnetization with a mean direction of D = 149.1°, I = 24.3°, α₉₅ = 10°, for N = 13 sites. Rotation of the site mean directions about the axis of the Torbrook Syncline suggest a post-folding (post Middle Devonian) age for this magnetization, which corresponds to a pole at 21.9° N Lat., 147.7° E Long. after correction for post-Triassic regional tilting. The magnetization of the Torbrook Formation (D = 15.8°, I = 29.6°, a 95 = 11.7°) is clearly a secondary magnetization whose pole (55.5° N Lat., 90.7° E. Long.) lies near Triassic poles from both North America and southern Nova Scotia. The age of the Cheverie Formation magnetization (D = 146°, I = 25°, α₉₅ = 6°, tilt corrected) appears to pre-date folding in the area (pre-Westphalian) and the corresponding pole (24° N Lat., 152° E Long.) lies near to the White Rock pole, suggesting a similar age of magnetization. The White Rock and Cheverie poles, which are constrained to have Early Carboniferous ages, are 30° or more away from the North American APW path over the same age range, a discrepancy which can be explained by a 15 - 19° northward motion of Meguma with respect to the North American craton along with a 20 - 25° counter - clockwise rotation. There is no paleolatitude discrepancy between these results and paleomagnetic results from the adjacent Avalon Zone although a similar rotational discrepancy is evident. These inferred motions of the Meguma terrane most likely took place during the Carboniferous, prior to the formation of Pangea.

description: I calculate the parity violating asymmetry A_{pv} for elastic electron scattering from 27Al in order to compare with the Qweak experiment "background" 27Al measurement. I find that Coulomb distortions, and the quadrupole form factor, reduce A_{pv} near the diffraction minimum. The Qweak data can be used to confirm the neutron radius of 27Al, if nuclear structure uncertainties are indeed small, as I suggest, and one can estimate inelastic and impurity contributions. This could provide an important check of the measurement, analysis, and theory.

Higgs mass naturalness and scale invariance in the UV

description: It has been suggested that electroweak symmetry breaking in the Standard Model may be natural if the Standard Model merges into a conformal field theory (CFT) at short distances. In such a scenario the Higgs mass would be protected from quantum corrections by the scale invariance of the CFT. In order for the Standard Model to merge into a CFT at least one new ultraviolet (UV) scale is required at which the couplings turn over from their usual Standard Model running to the fixed point behavior. We argue that the Higgs mass is sensitive to such a turn-over scale even if there are no associated massive particles and the scale arises purely from dimensional transmutation. We demonstrate this sensitivity to the turnover scale explicitly in toy models. Thus if scale invariance is responsible for Higgs mass naturalness, then the transition to CFT dynamics must occur near the TeV scale with observable consequences at colliders. In addition, the UV fixed point theory in such a scenario must be interacting because logarithmic running near a free fixed point constitutes hard breaking of scale invariance and spoils the Higgs mass protection.

Entropy production and fluctuation theorems for Langevin processes under continuous non-Markovian feedback control

description: Continuous feedback control of Langevin processes may be non-Markovian due to a time lag between the measurement and the control action. We show that this requires to modify the basic relation between dissipation and time-reversal and to include a contribution arising from the non-causal character of the reverse process. We then propose a new definition of the quantity measuring the irreversibility of a path in a nonequilibrium stationary state, which can be also regarded as the trajectory-dependent total entropy production. This leads to an extension of the second law which takes a simple form in the long-time limit. As an illustration, we apply the general approach to linear systems which are both analytically tractable and experimentally relevant.

description: Atomic layer deposition (ALD) provides a promising approach for deposition of ultrathin low-defect-density tunnel barriers, and it has been implemented in a high-vacuum magnetron sputtering system for in situ deposition of ALD-Al2O3 tunnel barriers in superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) Josephson junctions. A smooth ALD-Al2O3 barrier layer was grown on a Al-wetted Nb bottom electrode and was followed with a top Nb electrode growth using sputtering. Preliminary low temperature measurements of current-voltage characteristics (IVC) of the Josephson junctions made from these trilayers confirmed the integrity of the ALD-Al2O3 barrier layer. However, the IcRN product of the junctions is much smaller than the value expected from the Ambegaokar-Baratoff formula suggesting a significant pair-breaking mechanism at the interfaces.

description: The success of Constraint Programming relies partly on the global constraints and implementation of the associated filtering algorithms. Recently, new ideas emerged to improve these implementations in practice, especially regarding the all different constraint. In this paper, we consider the cardinality constraint with costs. The cardinality constraint is a generalization of the all different constraint that specifies the number of times each value must be taken by a given set of variables in a solution. The version with costs introduces an assignment cost and bounds the total sum of assignment costs. The arc consistency filtering algorithm of this constraint is difficult to use in practice, as it systematically searches for many shortest paths. We propose a new approach that works with upper bounds on shortest paths based on landmarks. This approach can be seen as a preprocessing. It is fast and avoids, in practice, a large number of explicit computations of shortest paths.

description: Magnetic susceptibility (MS) and natural gamma ray (NGR) were measured on middle Miocene to Cenomanian coastal plain strata from a continuously cored (356 m total depth; 86% recovery) borehole at Ancora, New Jersey (Ocean Drilling Program Leg 174AX). These measurements were integrated with lithologic descriptions and a downhole NGR log. A simple linear model explains most of the variation of the downhole NGR and the core MS as a consequence of the previously described lithologic variation. Spectral NGR at selected levels shows that NGR activity is mostly due to 40K associated with glauconite and mud, sediment components that also tend to give high MS values. Abrupt deviations from the average values of NGR activity and MS determined by the linear model can be interpreted as due to singular lithologies. For example, an anomalous level with high NGR but not a parallel increase in MS was found at the Navesink/Mount Laurel formation contact and can be attributed to high uranium ! concentration in phosphorite. Most (27 of 33) of the sequence boundaries independently identified at the Ancora site have sufficient lithological contrasts to be expressed in the NGR and/or MS logs.

description: In this paper we study the one-dimensional Riemann problem for a new hyperbolic system of three conservation laws of Temple class. This systems it is a simplification of a recently propose system of five conservations laws by Bouchut and Boyaval that model viscoelastic fluids. An important issues is that the considered $3 \times 3$ system is such that every characteristic field is linearly degenerate. Then, in despite of the fact that it is of Temple class, the analysis of the Cauchy problem is more involved since general results for such a systems are not yet available. We show a explicit solution for the Cauchy problem with initial data in $L^\infty$. We also study the Riemann problem for this system. Under suitable generalized Rankine-Hugoniot relation and entropy condition, both existence and uniqueness of particular delta-shock type solutions are established.

Non-uniform occurrence of short-term polarity fluctuations in the geomagnetic field? New results from Middle to Late Miocene sediments of the North Atlantic (DSDP Site 608)

Subjects: Paleoclimatology

description: New magnetostratigraphic results from DSDP Site 608 in the North Atlantic reveal the presence of nine short-term polarity fluctuations that do not correspond to subchrons in the most recent GPTS. Comparison with published results from ODP Sites 845 and 1092, and from the continental Orera Composite Section, shows that all these polarity fluctuations are observed in more than one record. At DSDP Site 608, five of the intervals are ascertained by more than two samples and have an estimated duration that is larger than 10 kyr. We regard these as polarity subchrons, which define five new short polarity intervals in the Miocene: C4r.2r-ln, C4Ar.1r-1n, C5r.2r-1n, C5r.2r-2n, and C5r.3r-1n. Three polarity fluctuations within C5n and one in C5An.2n are each only determined by one sample and are hence not unambiguous. They have an estimated duration < 10 kyr and an inconsistent expression. Consequently, we believe they qualify better as directional excursions and that they are most likely associated with decreases in paleointensity (DIPs) of the geomagnetic field. The identification of these nine new magnetic events suggests that the occurrence of short-term polarity fluctuations in the geomagnetic field is indeed non-uniformly distributed through time. For example, they are relatively more common in the early Late Miocene and the Pleistocene but virtually absent in the latest Miocene and Pliocene. It remains uncertain, however, if this is related to real behavior of the geodynamo. The detection of several new short polarity subchrons in the Middle to Late Miocene time interval may be explained by earlier registration problems in the magnetic anomaly patterns, while the absence of such features in the latest Miocene-early Pliocene could be related to paleomagnetic records of inferior data quality.
Post-depositional detrital remanent magnetism in reconstituted deep sea sediment

Publisher: name: Columbia University

description: Evidence of disturbance by benthic burrowing organisms is commonly observed in deep-sea sediment cores but these same cores often possess good magnetic records, especially of field reversals. The natural remanent magnetism (NRM) of these burrowed sediments cannot be a depositional detrital remanence (DRM) but must rather have been acquired at some later time. An experiment was designed to demonstrate that a post-depositional DRM could be acquired in deep-sea sediment in conjunction with sediment disturbance similar to that caused by benthic fauna.
Quantifying Advantages of a Moving Mesh in Nuclear Hydrodynamics

description: Many astrophysical explosions, such as type Ia supernovae, classical novae, and X-ray bursts, are dominated by thermonuclear runaway. To model these processes accurately, one must evolve nuclear reactions concurrently with hydrodynamics. We present an application of the moving mesh technique to this field of computation with the aim of explicitly testing the advantages of the method against the fixed mesh case. By way of traditional Strang splitting, our work couples a 13 isotope nuclear reaction network to a 1D moving mesh, Cartesian geometry hydrodynamics code. We explore three reacting problems: an acoustic pulse, a burning shock, and an advecting deflagration. Additionally using the shock jump conditions, we semi-analytically solve the burning shock problem under the assumption of quick, complete burning with the hope of establishing a useful and easy to set-up test problem. Strong moving mesh advantages are found in advecting, deflagrating flame fronts, where the technique dramatically reduces numerical diffusion that would otherwise lead to very fast artificial deflagration.

description: We explore the kinematics and orbital properties of a sample of 323 very metal-poor stars in the halo system of the Milky Way, selected from the high-resolution spectroscopic follow-up studies of Aoki et al. and Yong et al. The combined sample contains a significant fraction of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars (22% or 29%, depending on whether a strict or relaxed criterion is applied for this definition). Barium abundances (or upper limits) are available for the great majority of the CEMP stars, allowing for their separation into the CEMP-$s$ and CEMP-no sub-classes. A new method to assign membership to the inner- and outer-halo populations of the Milky Way is developed, making use of the integrals of motion, and applied to determine the relative fractions of CEMP stars in these two sub-classes for each halo component. Although limited by small-number statistics, the data suggest that the inner halo of the Milky Way exhibits a somewhat higher relative number of CEMP-$s$ stars than CEMP-no stars (57% vs. 43%), while the outer halo possesses a clearly higher fraction of CEMP-no stars than CEMP-$s$ stars (70% vs. 30%). Although larger samples of CEMP stars with known Ba abundances are required, this result suggests that the dominant progenitors of CEMP stars in the two halo components were different; massive stars for the outer halo, and intermediate-mass stars in the case of the inner halo.

description: In the estimation of causal effects, one common method for removing the influence of confounders is to adjust the variables that satisfy the back-door criterion. However, it is not always possible to uniquely determine sets of such variables. Moreover, real-world data is almost always limited, which means it may be insufficient for statistical estimation. Therefore, we propose criteria for selecting variables from a list of candidate adjustment variables along with an algorithm to prevent accuracy degradation in causal effect estimation. We initially focus on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) and then outlines specific steps for applying this method to completed partially directed acyclic graphs (CPDAGs). We also present and prove a theorem on causal effect computation possibility in CPDAGs. Finally, we demonstrate the practical utility of our method using both existing and artificial data.

f(R) in Holographic and Agegraphic Dark Energy Models and the Generalized Uncertainty Principle

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: We studied a unified approach with the holographic, new agegraphic and the $f(R)$ dark energy model to construct the form of $f(R)$ which in general responsible for the curvature driven explanation of the very early inflation along with presently observed late time acceleration. We considered the generalized uncertainty principle in our approach which incorporated the corrections in the entropy area relation and thereby modified the energy densities for the cosmological dark energy models considered. We found that holographic and new agegraphic $f(R)$ gravity models can behave like phantom or quintessence models in the spatially flat FRW universe. We also found a distinct term in the form of $f(R)$ which goes as $R^{\frac{3}{2}}$ due to the consideration of the GUP modified energy densities. Although the presence of this term in the action can have its importance in explaining the early inflationary scenario but Capozziello {\it et.al.} recently showed that $f(R) \sim R^{\frac{3}{2}}$ leads to an accelerated expansion, {\it i.e.}, a negative value for the deceleration parameter $q$ which fit well with SNeIa and WMAP data.
