Year: 2021

description: ReCreating Europe (Rethinking digital copyright law for a culturally diverse, accessible, creative Europe) is an EU-funded H2020 RIA project (Grant Agreement No. 870626) that aims at bringing researchers, experts, policymakers and stakeholders together to clarify what is needed for a copyright regulatory framework that supports sustainable digitisation, culturally diverse production, inclusive access and consumption of digital resources. By conducting research and empirical research, reCreating Europe provides a comparative cross-national mapping of (i) the governance and implementation of processes for IPR within Galleries, Libraries, Museums and Archives (GLAM); (ii) the effective implementation of copyright law by GLAM, considering sector-specific practices, with regard to digitisation-related issues and Open Access to Knowledge. The project also aims to understand the effect and uses of the digitization of art, architecture and cultural heritage in place-making, and the effect of this on the functioning of the DSM. Work is undertaken with stakeholders to improve their copyright awareness and help them to deal with issues arising from digitisation, by drafting specific guidelines. By doing so, it enables a higher degree of harmonization of current EU copyright law and policies by means of a bottom-up approach, where stakeholders play a leading role. In support of realising these aims, reCreating Europe launched a survey from September 2020 until January 2021, focused on mapping and determining whether Galleries Libraries Archives Museums (GLAMs) are aware of the implications that copyright law and open policies have on the digitisation practices undertaken by GLAM stakeholders, also determining to what extent the law functions as a barrier to access, use and reuse of digital content and suggesting the possible countermeasures. The survey was open to public and it was widely circulated in Europe. The results of the survey will be analysed and used to help recommending best practices and policies that enable digitisation to be carried out effectively within the prescriptions of a rebalances copyright law. This poster will illustrate the preliminary results of the survey and demonstrate the impact of Copyright Law and Open Policies in relation to digitisation practices in the GLAM Sector.

description: We report measurements of the magnetoresistance (MR) of narrow Au wires coupled to a superconducting Al contact on one end, and a normal Au contact on the other. The MR at low magnetic field $B$ is quadratic in $B$, with a characteristic field scale $B_c$ determined by phase coherent paths which encompass not only the wire, but also the two contacts. $B_c$ is essentially temperature independent at low temperatures, indicating that the area of the phase coherent paths is not determined by the superconducting coherence length $L_T$ in the normal metal, which is strongly temperature dependent at low temperatures. We identify the relevant length scale as a combination of the electron phase coherence length $L_ϕ$ in the normal metal and the coherence length $ξ_S$ in the superconductor.

Our results show that extended self-similarity remarkably holds for the statistics of the local edge variance, and that the very same models can be used to predict all the associated exponents. These results suggest to use natural images as a laboratory for testing scaling models of interest for the statistical description of turbulent flows. The properties we have exhibited are relevant for the modeling of the early visual system: they should be included in models designed for the prediction of receptive fiel$

description: We present the obliquity measurement, that is, the angle between the normal angle of the orbital plane and the stellar spin axis, of the sub-Neptune planet HD3167 c, which transits a bright nearby K0 star. We study the orbital architecture of this multi-planet system to understand its dynamical history. We also place constraints on the obliquity of planet d based on the geometry of the planetary system and the dynamical study of the system. New observations obtained with HARPS-N at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG) were employed for our analysis. The sky-projected obliquity was measured using three different methods: the Rossiter-McLaughlin anomaly, Doppler tomography, and reloaded Rossiter-McLaughlin techniques. We performed the stability analysis of the system and investigated the dynamical interactions between the planets and the star. HD3167 c is found to be nearly polar with sky-projected obliquity, $λ$ = -97$^{\circ} \pm$ 23$^{\circ}$. This misalignment of the orbit of planet c with the spin axis of the host star is detected with 97\% confidence. The analysis of the dynamics of this system yields coplanar orbits of planets c and d. It also shows that it is unlikely that the currently observed system can generate this high obliquity for planets c and d by itself. However, the polar orbits of planets c and d could be explained by the presence of an outer companion in the system. Follow-up observations of the system are required to confirm such a long-period companion.

Computational Resources to Filter Gravitational Wave Data with P-approximant Templates

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The prior knowledge of the gravitational waveform from compact binary systems makes matched filtering an attractive detection strategy. This detection method involves the filtering of the detector output with a set of theoretical waveforms or templates. One of the most important factors in this strategy is knowing how many templates are needed in order to reduce the loss of possible signals. In this study we calculate the number of templates and computational power needed for a one-step search for gravitational waves from inspiralling binary systems. We build on previous works by firstly expanding the post-Newtonian waveforms to 2.5-PN order and secondly, for the first time, calculating the number of templates needed when using P-approximant waveforms. The analysis is carried out for the four main first-generation interferometers, LIGO, GEO600, VIRGO and TAMA. As well as template number, we also calculate the computational cost of generating banks of templates for filtering GW data. We carry out the calculations for two initial conditions. In the first case we assume a minimum individual mass of $1 M_{\odot}$ and in the second, we assume a minimum individual mass of $5 M_{\odot}$. We find that, in general, we need more P-approximant templates to carry out a search than if we use standard PN templates. This increase varies according to the order of PN-approximation, but can be as high as a factor of 3 and is explained by the smaller span of the P-approximant templates as we go to higher masses. The promising outcome is that for 2-PN templates the increase is small and is outweighed by the known robustness of the 2-PN P-approximant templates.

description: An adiabatic cyclic evolution of control parameters of a quantum system ends up with a holonomic operation on the system, determined entirely by the geometry in the parameter space. The operation is given either by a simple phase factor (a Berry phase) or a non-Abelian unitary operator depending on the degeneracy of the eigenspace of the Hamiltonian. Geometric quantum computation is a scheme to use such holonomic operations rather than the conventional dynamic operations to manipulate quantum states for quantum information processing. Here we propose a geometric quantum computation scheme which can be realized with current technology on nanoscale Josephson-junction networks, known as a promising candidate for solid-state quantum computer.

description: Insights into animal behaviour play an increasingly central role in species-focused conservation practice. However, progress towards incorporating behaviour into regional or global conservation strategies has been more limited, not least because standardized datasets of behavioural traits are generally lacking at wider taxonomic or spatial scales. Here we make use of the recent expansion of global datasets for birds to assess the prospects for including behavioural traits in systematic conservation priority-setting and monitoring programmes. Using International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List classifications for more than 9500 bird species, we show that the incidence of threat can vary substantially across different behavioural categories, and that some types of behaviour—including particular foraging, mating and migration strategies—are significantly more threatened than others. The link between behavioural traits and extinction risk is partly driven by correlations with well-established geographical and ecological factors (e.g. range size, body mass, human population pressure), but our models also reveal that behaviour modifies the effect of these factors, helping to explain broad-scale patterns of extinction risk. Overall, these results suggest that a multi-species approach at the scale of communities, continents and ecosystems can be used to identify and monitor threatened behaviours, and to flag up cases of latent extinction risk, where threatened status may currently be underestimated. Our findings also highlight the importance of comprehensive standardized descriptive data for ecological and behavioural traits, and point the way towards deeper integration of behaviour into quantitative conservation assessments.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Linking behaviour to dynamics of populations and communities: application of novel approaches in behavioural ecology to conservation’.

description: Digital Identity: The Effect of Trust and Reputation Information on User Judgement in the Sharing Economy The Sharing Economy (SE) is a growing ecosystem focusing on peer-to-peer enterprise. In the SE the information available to assist individuals (users) in making decisions focuses on community-generated trust and reputation information (TRI). To explore how such information impacts user judgement, we constructed an artificial SE accommodation platform where we varied the elements related to hosts’ digital identity. Across multiple studies, we find TRI increases perceptions of hosts’ trustworthiness, credibility, and sociability, and the propensity to rent their rooms. Our findings have implications for user judgment and privacy in the SE, and question the current culture of ever increasing information-sharing.

description: The alignment between satellite and central galaxies serves as a proxy for addressing the issue of galaxy formation and evolution and has been investigated abundantly in observations and theoretical works. Most scenarios indicate that the satellites preferentially locate along the major axis of their central galaxy. Recent work shows that the strength of alignment signals depends on large-scale environment in observations. We use the publicly-released data from EAGLE to figure out whether the same effect can be found in the hydrodynamic simulation. We found much stronger environmental dependency of alignment signal in simulation. And we also explore change of alignments to address the formation of this effects.

description: Tousled like kinase 1 (TLK1), a member of DNA repair family, participates in the regulation of chromatin assembly and is associated with early menopause and premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) in European women. However, whether the sequence variant in the TLK1 gene was causative for POI is still elusive. Here we performed direct sequencing of the TLK1 gene in 192 patients with sporadic POI. All exons and exon–intron boundaries of TLK1 were amplified and sequenced. Six known single-nucleotide polymorphisms were identified in POI, including rs149844334, rs11553951, rs757600673, rs2277339, rs113416007 and rs17283147. No novel variant was identified, which indicates that sequence variants in the coding region of TLK1 might be uncommon in Chinese women with POI. The role of TLK1 in POI pathogenesis needs to be further explored in larger cohorts from Chinese and other ethnic populations.

description: We propose a scenario for the prebiotic co-evolution of RNA and of fast folding proteins with large entropy gaps as observed today. We show from very general principles that the folding and unfolding of the proteins synthesized by RNA can function as a heat pump. Rock surfaces can facilitate the folding of amino acid chains having polar and hydrophobic residues, with an accompanying heat loss to the surrounding rock. These chains then absorb heat from the soup as they unfold. This opens the way to the enhancement of RNA replication rates, by the enzymatic action of folded proteins present in greater numbers at reduced temperatures. This gives an evolutionary advantage to those RNA coding amino acid sequences with non-degenerate folded states which would provide the most efficient refrigeration.

description: The need for data preservation and reproducible research is widely recognized in the scientific community. Yet, researchers often struggle to find the motivation to contribute to data repositories and to use tools that foster reproducibility. In this paper, we explore possible uses of gamification to support reproducible practices in High Energy Physics. To understand how gamification can be effective in research tools, we participated in a workshop and performed interviews with data analysts. We then designed two interactive prototypes of a research preservation service that use contrasting gamification strategies. The evaluation of the prototypes showed that gamification needs to address core scientific challenges, in particular the fair reflection of quality and individual contribution. Through thematic analysis, we identified four themes which describe perceptions and requirements of gamification in research: Contribution, Metrics, Applications and Scientific practice. Based on these, we discuss design implications for gamification in science.

description: Few-layer GaSe is one of the latest additions to the family of 2D semiconducting crystals whose properties under strain are still relatively unexplored. Here, we study rippled nanosheets that exhibit a periodic compressive and tensile strain of up to 5%. The strain profile modifies the local optoelectronic properties of the alternating compressive and tensile regions, which translates into a remarkable shift of the optical absorption band-edge of up to 1.2 eV between crests and valleys. Our experimental observations are supported by theoretical results from density functional theory calculations performed for monolayers and multilayers (up to 7 layers) under tensile and compressive strain. This large band gap tunability can be explained through a combined analysis of the elastic response of Ga atoms to strain and the symmetry of the wave functions.

description: We consider existence of positive solutions for a difference equation with continuous time, variable coefficients and delays $$ x(t+1)-x(t)+ \sum_{k=1}^m a_k(t)x(h_k(t))=0, \quad a_k(t) \geq 0, ~~h_k(t) \leq t, \quad t \geq 0, \quad k=1, \dots, m. $$ We prove that for a fixed $h(t)\not\equiv t$, a positive solution may exist for $a_k$ exceeding any prescribed $M>0$, as well as for constant positive $a_k$ with $h_k(t) \leq t-n$, where $n \in {\mathbb N}$ is arbitrary and fixed. The point is that for equations with continuous time, non-existence of positive solutions with $\inf x(t)>0$ on any bounded interval should be considered rather than oscillation. Sufficient conditions when such solutions exist or do not exist are obtained. We also present an analogue of the Grönwall-Bellman inequality for equations with continuous time, and examine the question when the equation has no positive non-increasing solutions. Counterexamples illustrate the role of variable delays.

description: Superconductivity can be induced in a normal material via the leakage of superconducting pairs of charge carriers from an adjacent superconductor. This so-called proximity effect is markedly influenced by graphene unique electronic structure, both in fundamental and technologically relevant ways. These include an unconventional form of the leakage mechanism the Andreev reflection and the potential of supercurrent modulation through electrical gating. Despite the interest of high-temperature superconductors in that context, realizations have been exclusively based on low-temperature ones. Here we demonstrate gate-tunable, high-temperature superconducting proximity effect in graphene. Notably, gating effects result from the perfect transmission of superconducting pairs across an energy barrier -a form of Klein tunneling, up to now observed only for non-superconducting carriers- and quantum interferences controlled by graphene doping. Interestingly, we find that this type of interferences become dominant without the need of ultra-clean graphene, in stark contrast to the case of low-temperature superconductors. These results pave the way to a new class of tunable, high-temperature Josephson devices based on large-scale graphene.

description: Microbial treatment of natural fibers is a preferred alternatives in ramie degumming process as compared to conventional chemical degumming technology with alkaline treatment at high temperature. Usually, it is difficult to degrade the noncellulosic components of ramie bast completely with a single strain in the mono-culturing degumming system. Microbial coculture strategy has been widely used in biotechnology, especially in the degradation of biological materials. In the present study, five strains for ramie degumming were identified as Dickeya dadantii strain DCE-01, Bacillus subtilis strain 1101, Bacillus sp. B6, Bacillus cereus strain B7, and Bacillus cereus strain B8 by sequencing of 16 S rRNA genes. Enzymatic activities characterization, ramie degumming experiments with mono-culturing systems, and the evaluation of strain compatibility showed that group DCE-01/B7 were the most suitable pairs for the construction of bacterial coculturing system. After preliminary optimization of coculturing fermentation condition, the weight loss weight ratio of ramie fibers was 27%, which was increased 13.6% and 8.9% while compared to mono-culturing systems of strain B7 and DCE-01 respectively. These data highlighted the benefit of microbial coculture strategy in the application of ramie degumming process, and indicated a higher-efficiency alternative for the microbial degumming in the textile industry.

Finite size corrections for the Ising model on higher genus triangular lattices

description: We study the topology dependence of finite size corrections to the Ising model partition function by considering the model on a triangular lattice embedded on a genus two surface. At criticality we observe a universal shape dependent correction, expressible in terms of Riemann theta functions, that reproduces the modular invariant partition function of the corresponding conformal field theory. The period matrix characterizing the moduli parameters of the limiting Riemann surface is obtained by a numerical study of the lattice continuum limit. The same results are reproduced using a discrete holomorphic structure.

Power law statistics of avalanches in martensitic transformation

Year: 2001

description: We devise a two dimensional model that mimics the recently observed power law distributions for the amplitudes and durations of the acoustic emission signals observed during martensitic transformation [ Vives {\it et al}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 72}, 1694 (1994)]. We include a threshold mechanism arising from the athermal nature of transformation, long-range interaction between the transformed domains, inertial effects, and dissipation arising due to the motion of the interface. The model exhibits thermal hysteresis of the transformation, and more importantly, it shows that the energy is released in the form of avalanches with power law distributions for their amplitudes and durations. Computer simulations also reveal morphological features similar to those observed in real systems.

The multi-fractal structure of contrast changes in natural images: from sharp edges to textures

description: We present a formalism that leads very naturally to a hierarchical description of the different contrast structures in images, providing precise definitions of sharp edges and other texture components. Within this formalism, we achieve a decomposition of pixels of the image in sets, the fractal components of the image, such that each set only contains points characterized by a fixed stregth of the singularity of the contrast gradient in its neighborhood. A crucial role in this description of images is played by the behavior of contrast differences under changes in scale. Contrary to naive scaling ideas where the image is thought to have uniform transformation properties \cite{Fie87}, each of these fractal components has its own transformation law and scaling exponents. A conjecture on their biological relevance is also given.

(Conformal) Killing vectors and their associated bivectors

description: Fayos and Sopuerta have recently set up a formalism for studying vacuum spacetimes with an isometry, a formalism that is centred around the bivector corresponding to the Killing vector and that adapts the tetrad to the bivector. Steele has generalized their approach to include the homothetic case. Here, we generalize this formalism to arbitrary spacetimes and to homothetic and conformal Killing vectors but do not insist on aligning the tetrad with the bivector. The most efficient way to use the formalism to find conformal Killing vectors (proper or not) of a given spacetime is to combine it with the notion of a preferred tetrad. A metric by Kimura is used as an illustrative example.

Enriching accessibility of digital heritage collections: from searching to exploring

description: A lot of digital heritage collections are available online nowadays. Most of the time searching through these collections is fairly straight forward: a user searches on keywords through a user-interface, and a list of clickable results is returned. Although this kind of interface usually works fine, users are getting more and more interested in other ways of exploring digital heritage data. This had led to several initiatives, such as Datastories from the Dutch Digital Heritage Network in which a user can create their own search queries, or the GLAM Workbench from Tim Sherrat that allows the user to explore Australian heritage collections through Jupyter Notebooks. The KB National Library of the Netherlands is also exploring new ways to showcase their digital heritage collections. This had led to two projects in the past year. The first project is the ‘Medieval Meme Generator’. Creating so called ‘memes’ (an image with a funny text) is currently very popular in the online world, especially in the age group of 15 to 35 years. Memes are widely shared on various platforms on the internet. Within the Medieval Meme Generator, a user can search through 15 pre-selected medieval images and transform them into a meme by adding text through the meme generator. A short background story of the origin of the images is shown when an image is selected. The meme generator combines modern trends with heritage collections, thereby achieving the interests of a target audience that is usually not really interested in these collections. Another project is the website ‘Delpher demo: pandemics through time’, which offers another approach in searching through the digital heritage collection. This site dives into the Dutch historical newspaper archive Delpher, to give an insight in the reporting of pandemics and infectious diseases through time. Four related main categories can be selected, based on recent reports about the corona pandemic. A user can start by clicking one of these categories, after which a user is brought to a timeline to discover more about the selected category. For each year, there are visuals that show word clusters and connections between words. Also, a link to the original newspapers in the online newspaper archive is provided. For those who are interested in learning programming themselves, datasets and Jupyter Notebooks have been made available to give a quick start into learning to analyse textual data with Python.

description: We report muon spin rotation measurements of the local magnetic susceptibility around a positive muon in the paramagnetic state of the quasi one-dimensional spin 1/2 antiferromagnet KCuF$_3$. Signals from two distinct sites are resolved which have a temperature dependent frequency shift which is different than the magnetic susceptibility. This difference is attributed to a muon induced perturbation of the spin 1/2 chain.

We give a simple geometric construction for representing these phases. We then apply our results to understand previous work on three state phases. We point out that the ``mirror symmetry'' of wave functions noticed in microwave experiments can be simply understood in our framework.
