Rebuilding INSPIRE together with the HEP community
Creators: name: Christodoulaki, Stella
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: The INSPIRE digital library serves the scientific community since almost 50 years. Previously known as SPIRES, it was the first web site outside Europe and the first database on the web. Today, INSPIRE connects 100'000 scientists in High Energy Physics worldwide, with over 1 million scientific articles, thousands scientific profiles of authors, data, conferences and jobs in High Energy Physics. In order to bring INSPIRE to the next level, recently we rebuilt the platform based on modern infrastructure. We released the new INSPIRE version in beta a few months ago. For a successful beta release, we worked closely with the High Energy Physics community to identify the users' needs, drivers and barriers. In this paper, we describe the user-driven process that we followed, our testing strategy, as well as the user feedback following the INSPIRE beta release.

description: The International Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPPOG) is a network of scientists, science educators and communication specialists working across the globe in informal science education and outreach for particle physics. Members initiate, develop and participate in a variety of activities in classrooms, public events, festivals, exhibitions, museums, institute open days, etc. The IPPOG Resource Database was designed to provide a central location hosting written and multimedia material, tools, recipes, and other content to serve these activities. Objects in the database are categorised by language, target audience, age group, media type, and physics topics. Current efforts include porting the database to the new CERN web infrastructure and improving the interface to serve a public audience. We present our efforts to update procurement and categorisation of educational content, in addition to implementation of the redesigned user interface.

description: The organization of interphase chromosomes in a number of species is starting to emerge thanks to advances in a variety of experimental techniques. However, much less is known about the dynamics, especially in the functional states of chromatin. Some experiments have shown that the motility of individual loci in human interphase chromosome decreases during transcription, and increases upon inhibiting transcription. This is a counter-intuitive finding because it is thought that the active mechanical force ($F$) on the order of ten pico-newtons, generated by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) that is presumably transmitted to the gene-rich region of the chromatin, would render it more open, thus enhancing the mobility. We developed a minimal active copolymer model for interphase chromosomes to investigate how $F$ affects the dynamical properties of chromatin. The movements of the loci in the gene-rich region are suppressed in an intermediate range of $F$, and are enhanced at small $F$ values, which has also been observed in experiments. In the intermediate $F$, the bond length between consecutive loci increases, becoming commensurate with the distance at the minimum of the attractive interaction between non-bonded loci. This results in a transient disorder-to-order transition, leading to a decreased mobility during transcription. Strikingly, the $F$-dependent change in the locus dynamics preserves the organization of the chromosome at $F=0$. Transient ordering of the loci, which is not found in the polymers with random epigenetic profiles, in the gene-rich region might be a plausible mechanism for nucleating a dynamic network involving transcription factors, RNAPII, and chromatin.

Producer opportunism and environmental impacts of crop insurance and fertilizer decisions
Creators: name: Walters, Cory G.
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2008
Subjects: Crop insurance -- Government policy

description: This dissertation empirically examines crop insurance effects on producers and the environment as well as environmental effects of nitrogen use. It follows the journal article style and includes three self-contained chapters. In the first paper I analyze whether opportunistic behavior in crop insurance can arise due to asymmetric information between producers and the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation. Producers who insure fields using transitional yields based on county average yields or who select options such as buy-up coverage or revenue insurance may increase their return from crop insurance. Using field-level crop insurance contract data for several crops in five growing regions, I find evidence that producers can profit from using buy-up coverage, revenue insurance, and transitional yields and that the level of producer opportunism is crop specific but not necessarily land-quality specific and is greater due to premium subsidization. In the second article I characterize the extensive-margin (land allocation) environmental effects of crop insurance and crop insurance contracts between regions using four environmental indicators. Crop insurance participation may affect a producer's acreage decision or how much of each crop to plant. Planting decisions affect the environment because the production of different crops requires different input levels. Our results indicate that adverse environmental impacts from crop insurance are evident in only two of the four regions analyzed and in only two of the four environmental indicators. Crop insurance is related to adverse wind erosion and total nitrogen loss in North Dakota and wind erosion in Eastern Colorado. The objective of the third article is to identify terrain attributes where unaccounted nitrogen is likely to occur and the economic impact on producers from a reduction in applied nitrogen. Understanding the environmental sensitivity from agricultural production helps to identify market conditions and technology that policymakers can use to design policies to minimize the economic cost of reducing environmental degradation. Results indicate that spatial econometric methods increase statistical efficiency in parameter estimation over standard econometric estimation. Statistically significant impacts of available nitrogen on yield are observed by terrain attribute and unaccounted nitrogen. Results indicate that the adoption of variable rate fertilizer application technology is not economic with our selection of landscape positions at our experimental site.
High speed data converter circuits in SI-GE

Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2008
Subjects: Analog-to-digital converters

description: Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) with high speed and high accuracy play a critical role in electronics testing, scientific instrumentation, and digital communication systems. The performance of ADCs in this performance corner are limited by the input Track-and-Hold Amplifier (THA) that is used. Consequently, this input THA must have excellent thermal noise and jitter performance. Past THA designs were optimized for low signal distortion at the expense of voltage headroom, power consumption, thermal noise, and bandwidth. Current technology scaling makes it desirable to allow increased signal distortion, which will be compensated for in the digital domain. With the lower voltage headroom limitations of modern processes, digital distortion compensation will become essential in order to achieve ever higher sampling rates at high-accuracy. The purpose of this research was to design and fabricate an ADC using a THA based on this principle. Digital distortion compensation methods unique to the architecture of this ADC were also investigated. This document describes the design and performance of the ADC and evaluates the compensation algorithms.

description: So far, experimentally realized quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators all exhibit ferromagnetic order and the QAH effect only occurs at very low temperatures. On the other hand, up to now the QAH effect in antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials has never been reported. In this letter, we realize the QAH effect by proposing a four-band lattice model with static AFM order, which indicates that the QAH effect can be found in AFM materials. Then, as a prototype, we demonstrate that a monolayer CrO can be switched from an AFM Weyl semimetal to an AFM QAH insulator by applying strain, based on symmetry analysis and the first-principles electronic structure calculations. Our work not only proposes a new scenario to search for QAH insulators in materials, but also reveals a way to considerably increase the critical temperature of the QAH phase.

title: Predictors of alcohol problems among college students
title: The influence of Greek membership on coping motives for drinking
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Wirick, Dina Olave
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2010
Subjects: College students -- Alcohol use

description: Alcohol misuse among college students has been the focus of a vast amount of literature for many years. Studies have documented current college binge drinking rates at approximately 40%. Moreover, many students report significant alcohol-related adverse consequences. Among college students, fraternity and sorority members have been found to have the highest rates of drinking and adverse consequences. Several risk factors to alcohol problems have been identified including pre-college drinking, perceived peer drinking norms, and positive expectancies of alcohol. A few studies have also linked anxious attachment as a potential contributor to problematic alcohol use through its impact on coping motives for drinking. However, these factors have not been tested simultaneously; therefore the unique contribution of each of these variables is unclear. Another unanswered question is whether these risk factors impact alcohol misuse differently among Greek affiliates as compared to non-Greek members. The purpose of the current study was to address these gaps in the literature by testing a path model of alcohol problems among Greek and non-Greek affiliates. Results provided support for a path model containing anxious attachment, high school drinking, positive expectancies, and perceived drinking norms as independent predictors of alcohol problems through their impact on coping motives for drinking, and alcohol consumption. Multiple group analyses revealed that coping motives was more predictive of alcohol problems among Greek affiliates than non-Greek members. Marginal support was found for alcohol consumption serving as a stronger mediator of negative consequences among non-Greek members. These findings suggest that while it is important to focus intervention efforts on reducing heavy drinking, addressing other contributing variables such as the use of alcohol to cope with negative emotions may be necessary in order to reduce alcohol problems among college campuses, especially within the Greek system.

description: We describe electromagnetic propagation in a relativistic electron gas at finite temperatures and carrier densities. Using quantum electrodynamics at finite temperatures, we obtain electric and magnetic responses and general constitutive relations. Rewriting the propagator for the electromagnetic field in terms of the electric and magnetic responses, we identify the modes that propagate in the gas. As expected, we obtain the usual collective excitations, i.e., a longitudinal electric and two transverse magnetic plasmonic modes. In addition, we find a purely photonic mode that satisfies the wave equation in vacuum, for which the electron gas is transparent. We present dispersion relations for the plasmon modes at zero and finite temperatures and identify the intervals of frequency and wavelength where both electric and magnetic responses are simultaneously negative, a behavior previously thought not to occur in natural systems.

description: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) operating with asynchronous discrete events show higher energy efficiency with sparse computation. A popular approach for implementing deep SNNs is ANN-SNN conversion combining both efficient training of ANNs and efficient inference of SNNs. However, the accuracy loss is usually non-negligible, especially under a few time steps, which restricts the applications of SNN on latency-sensitive edge devices greatly. In this paper, we first identify that such performance degradation stems from the misrepresentation of the negative or overflow residual membrane potential in SNNs. Inspired by this, we decompose the conversion error into three parts: quantization error, clipping error, and residual membrane potential representation error. With such insights, we propose a two-stage conversion algorithm to minimize those errors respectively. Besides, We show each stage achieves significant performance gains in a complementary manner. By evaluating on challenging datasets including CIFAR-10, CIFAR- 100 and ImageNet, the proposed method demonstrates the state-of-the-art performance in terms of accuracy, latency and energy preservation. Furthermore, our method is evaluated using a more challenging object detection task, revealing notable gains in regression performance under ultra-low latency when compared to existing spike-based detection algorithms.

Analysing the spotless days as predictors of the solar activity from the new sunspot number

description: The use of the spotless days to predict the future solar activity is here revised based on the new version of the sunspot number index with a 24-month filter. Data from Solar Cycle (SC) 10 are considered because from this solar cycle the temporal coverage of the records is 100 %. The interrelationships of the timing characteristics of spotless days and their comparison with sunspot cycle parameters are explored, in some cases finding very strong correlations. Such is the case for the relationship between the minimum time between spotless days either side of a given solar maximum and the maximum time between spotless days either side in the previous solar minimum, with r = -0.91 and a p-value < 0.001. However, the predictions for SC 24 or 23 made by other authors in previous works using the spotless days as a predictor of solar activity are not good since it has not been fulfilled. Although there seems to be a pattern of strong correlation for some relationships between the parameters studied, prediction of future solar cycles from these parameters defined as functions of the spotless days should be made with caution because sometimes the estimated values are far from the observed ones. Finally, SC 23 seems to show a mode change, a break respect to the behavior of their previous solar cycles and more similar to SC 10-15.

description: Cooperative adaptive cruise control presents an opportunity to improve road transportation through increase in road capacity and reduction in energy use and accidents. Clever design of control algorithms and communication systems is required to ensure that the vehicle platoon is stable and meets desired safety requirements. In this paper, we propose a centralized model predictive controller for a heterogeneous platoon of vehicles to reach a desired platoon velocity and individual inter-vehicle distances with driver-selected headway time. As a novel concept, we allow for interruption from a human driver in the platoon that temporarily takes control of their vehicle with the assumption that the driver will, at minimum, obey legal velocity limits and the physical performance constraints of their vehicle. The finite horizon cost function of our proposed platoon controller is inspired from the infinite horizon design. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first platoon controller that integrates human-driven vehicles. We illustrate the performance of our proposed design with a numerical study, demonstrating that the safety distance, velocity, and actuation constraints are obeyed. Additionally, in simulation we illustrate a key property of string stability where the impact of a disturbance is reduced through the platoon.

Using a high-stability quartz-crystal microbalance to measure and model the chemical kinetics for gases in and on metals: oxygen in gold
Creators: name: Slavin, Alan J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper describes the use of a high-stability quartz-crystal microbalance (QCM) to measure the mass of a gas absorbed on and in the metal electrode on the quartz oscillator, when the gas pressure is low and the gas can be considered as rigidly attached to the metal, so viscosity effects are negligible. This provides an absolute measure of the total mass of gas uptake as a function of time, which can be used to model the kinetic processes involved. The technique can measure diffusion parameters of gases in metals close to room temperature at gas pressures much below one atmosphere, as relevant to surface processes such as atomic layer deposition and model studies of heterogeneous catalysis, whereas traditional diffusion measurements require temperatures over 400oC at gas pressures of at least a few Torr. A strong aspect of the method is the ability to combine the bulk measurement of absorbed mass by a QCM with a surface-sensitive technique such as Auger electron spectroscopy in the same vacuum chamber. The method is illustrated using atomic oxygen, formed under O2 gas at 6x10-5 Torr in the presence of a hot tungsten filament, interacting with the gold electrode on a QCM crystal held at 52 to 120oC. Some of the incident oxygen forms a surface oxide which eventually blocks more uptake, and the rest, about 80%, indiffuses. Surprisingly, the rate of oxygen uptake initially increases with the amount of oxygen previously absorbed; therefore, the measured oxygen uptake with time is reproducible only if pre-adsorption of oxygen conditions the sample. Temperatures above 130oC are necessary for measurable thermal desorption, but all the oxygen can be removed by CO scavenging at all temperatures of these experiments. Simple kinetic models are developed for fitting the experimental data to extract relevant parameters.

description: ThTaN$_3$, a rare cubic perovskite nitride semiconductor, has been studied using {\it ab initio} methods. Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) results in band inversion and a band gap of 150 meV at the zone center. In spite of the trivial $Z_2$ indices, two pairs of spin-polarized surface bands cross the gap near the zone center, indicating that this system is a topological crystalline insulator with the mirror Chern number of $|{\cal C}_m|=2$ protected by the mirror and $C_4$ rotational symmetries. Additionally, SOC doubles the Seebeck coefficient, leading to a maximum of $\sim$400 $μ$V/K at 150 K for carrier-doping levels of several $10^{17}$/cm$^3$. ThTaN$_3$ combines excellent bulk thermopower with parallel conduction through topological surface states that provide a platform for large engineering devices with ever larger figures of merit.

Towards understanding the physiological roles of plant laccases

Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Arabidopsis thaliana

description: Plant laccases have been implicated to play a role in a wide range of physiological functions in several plants, however, with no definite biochemical or genetic evidence. This dissertation in part describes various genetic and biochemical approaches towards understanding the in planta roles of a laccase multigene family in Arabidopsis thaliana. Using a genomics approach, we cloned and determined expression patterns of the 17-membered laccase gene family. The unique cell-type expression patterns observed in this study can now help provide new leads and/or strategies into determining their precise physiological/biochemical roles. However, analysis, through reverse genetics of single laccase knockouts in Arabidopsis gave no visible phenotype for the mutants examined except for the homozygous mutant lac15. The latter has a pale yellow seed coat when compared to the brown seed coat in the wild-type, suggesting a physiological/biochemical role in condensed tannin oxidation. Furthermore, heterologous expression and subsequent analysis of one of the Arabidopsis laccase, LAC12, suggested its broad substrate versatility as observed through activity towards wide range of substrates such as monolignols, epicatechin and pentagalloylglucose. In Tellima grandiflora, a putative laccase-like oxidase was reportedly involved in oxidative C-C intramolecular coupling leading to formation of tellimagrandin II. In our studies, however, no evidence to support this biochemical process was observed. By contrast, in this study, an enzyme involved in C-C coupling that led to formation of tellimagrandin II was detected and localized to isolated chloroplasts. Therefore, another class of oxidases is most likely to exist in these organelles. Polyphenol oxidases are proposed as the enzymatic candidates because of their localization to plastids and also their ability to catalyze oxidative coupling reactions. These findings herein thus place the coupling enzyme in the same subcellular compartments as for the substrate and related pathway products. The results from the present study thus partially address the previous enigma of enzymatic oxidative transformations leading to this broad class of hydrolyzable ellagitannins.

description: We introduce a Floquet circuit describing the driven Ising chain with topological defects. The corresponding gates include a defect that flips spins as well as the duality defect that explicitly implements the Kramers-Wannier duality transformation. The Floquet unitary evolution operator commutes with such defects, but the duality defect is not unitary, as it projects out half the states. We give two applications of these defects. One is to analyze the return amplitudes in the presence of "space-like" defects stretching around the system. We verify explicitly that the return amplitudes are in agreement with the fusion rules of the defects. The second application is to study unitary evolution in the presence of "time-like" defects that implement anti-periodic and duality-twisted boundary conditions. We show that a single unpaired localized Majorana zero mode appears in the latter case. We explicitly construct this operator, which acts as a symmetry of this Floquet circuit. We also present analytic expressions for the entanglement entropy after a single time step for a system of a few sites, for all of the above defect configurations.

description: This dissertation examines trade and welfare issues for non-tariff barriers and technology. We examine trade and welfare effects of: Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) barriers to trade for Washington apples; Washington State University (WSU) wheat breeding programs and technology; and Foot-and-Mouth disease (FMD) outbreak for the Mexican cattle industry. In the first article we characterize a full export model to estimate the effects of changing SPS barriers to trade on Washington State apples in China, India, Mexico and Taiwan. We use the SPS cost elasticities obtained from the export supply equations in revenue and surplus simulations. Our results provide promising information to Washington State apple producers. Exports to Mexico and Taiwan may increase significantly if SPS barriers decrease. We confirm China as an attractive market, regardless of SPS barriers to trade. Although exports to India may decrease if SPS barriers are enforced, the loss may not be large. In the second article we calculate the welfare effects of the WSU wheat breeding programs and technology for producers and consumers in Washington State, Oregon, Idaho, the United States and the rest of the world. We draw insights about the effects of cutting edge processes such as DNA fingerprinting in wheat breeding research. We develop a partial equilibrium multi-region trade model for wheat that provides consumer, producer and total surplus for each wheat class and region. Our results provide evidence suggesting that WSU wheat breeding programs have increased welfare in Washington State, in the United States and the rest of the world. The objective of the third article is to analyze the effects on trade of a hypothetical FMD outbreak in the Mexican cattle industry. We simulate the consequences of an FMD outbreak under different mitigation scenarios. This study analyzes a relevant policy issue for the Mexican cattle industry. It is important for policy makers to understand the potential impacts of an FMD outbreak and the consequences of the different mitigation policies. Our results provide evidence suggesting the potential gains due to increased traceability and depopulation of latent infectious herds. However, it is important to consider the cost of implementing the necessary measures.

description: For two dimensional conformal field theories in the ground state, it is known that a conformal interface along the entanglement cut can suppress the entanglement entropy from $S_A\sim c\log L$ to $S_A\sim c_{\text{eff}}\log L$, where $L$ is the length of the subsystem $A$, and $c_{\text{eff}}\in [0, c]$ is the effective central charge which depends on the transmission property of the conformal interface. In this work, by making use of conformal mappings, we show that a conformal interface has the same effect on entanglement evolution in non-equilibrium cases, including global, local and certain inhomogeneous quantum quenches. I.e., a conformal interface suppresses the time evolution of entanglement entropy by effectively replacing the central charge $c$ with $c_{\text{eff}}$, where $c_{\text{eff}}$ is exactly the same as that in the ground state case. We confirm this conclusion by a numerical study on a critical fermion chain. Furthermore, based on the quasi-particle picture, we conjecture that this conclusion holds for an arbitrary quantum quench in CFTs, as long as the initial state can be described by a regularized conformal boundary state.

Abstract
Eluxadoline (Truberzi®) is an orally administered, minimally absorbed agent that acts locally in the gastrointestinal tract as a mixed µ-opioid receptor agonist and δ-opioid receptor antagonist. The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multinational, phase 3 IBS-3001 and IBS-3002 trials examined the efficacy of eluxadoline in patients with diarrhoea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). The composite response rate (i.e. the proportion of patients with improvement in both worst abdominal pain and stool consistency on ≥50% of days; primary endpoint), was significantly higher in patients receiving eluxadoline 100 mg twice daily than in those receiving placebo after 12 and 26 weeks’ therapy. Other abdominal and bowel symptoms (e.g. bloating, urgency, frequency of bowel movement) and health-related quality of life scores were also improved with eluxadoline. Eluxadoline was generally well tolerated in patients with IBS-D. Constipation was the most commonly occurring adverse event, although no serious constipation events were reported. Pancreatitis and adverse events consistent with sphincter of Oddi spasm were uncommon. In conclusion, eluxadoline is a new option to consider in the treatment of adult patients with IBS-D.

Year: 2019

description: The International Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPPOG) is a network of scientists, science educators and communication specialists working across the globe in informal science education and outreach for particle physics. The primary methodology adopted by IPPOG requires the direct involvement of scientists active in current research with education and communication specialists, in order to effectively develop and share best practices in outreach. IPPOG member activities include the International Particle Physics Masterclass programme, International Day of Women and Girls in Science, Worldwide Data Day, International Muon Week and International Cosmic Day organisation, and participation in activities ranging from public talks, festivals, exhibitions, teacher training, student competitions, and open days at local institutions. These independent activities, often carried out in a variety of languages to public with a variety of backgrounds, all serve to gain the public trust and to improve worldwide understanding and support of science. We present our vision of IPPOG as a strategic pillar of particle physics, fundamental research and evidence-based decision-making around the world.
On the local-global principle for isogenies of abelian surfaces

description: Let $\ell$ be a prime number. We classify the subgroups $G$ of $\operatorname{Sp}_4(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ and $\operatorname{GSp}_4(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ that act irreducibly on $\mathbb{F}_\ell^4$, but such that every element of $G$ fixes an $\mathbb{F}_\ell$-vector subspace of dimension 1. We use this classification to prove that the local-global principle for isogenies of degree $\ell$ between abelian surfaces over number fields holds in many cases -- in particular, whenever the abelian surface has non-trivial endomorphisms and $\ell$ is large enough with respect to the field of definition. Finally, we prove that there exist arbitrarily large primes $\ell$ for which some abelian surface $A/\mathbb{Q}$ fails the local-global principle for isogenies of degree $\ell$.

Subjects: Political and social views

description: This dissertation takes a rhetorical approach toward the ideological identifications and contradictions of Chinese national and global politics implied by Mao Zedong's physical presence and his painted or printed images. Making historical and theoretical selections that should inform and challenge scholars who work in English, I have analyzed the visual codes, cultural and linguistic contradictions, and political emotions that have promoted ideological interactions around these images of Mao Zedong. Closely related to Lenin's impermanence idea about public propaganda, the portrait of Mao Zedong at Tiananmen, Beijing, China, typically presents the complex relationships of ideology and power in our modern world. On the one hand, it is only a simple portrait on canvas in a humble frame. On the other, it is a giant image displayed at a politically prominent spot, the painting of which is constantly renewed. The dissertation explores the visual rhetoric of this kind of metonymic display of Mao Zedong, considers how its signifying functions operate in the changing social and ideological realities of China and the global political economy, and suggests how these images articulate and represent a selective persona of Mao Zedong as a consistent factor amidst such changes.

description: In previous work we demonstrated that the enlarged super-Poincare algebras which underlie p-brane and D-brane actions in superstring theory can be directly determined based on the integrability of supersymmetry transformations assigned to fields appearing in Wess-Zumino terms. In that work we derived p-brane superalgebras for p = 2 and 3. Here we extend our previous results and give a compact expression for superalgebras for all valid p.

Year: 2019

description: The International Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPPOG) is a network of scientists, science educators and communication specialists working across the globe in informal science education and outreach for particle physics. IPPOG's flagship activity is the International Particle Physics Masterclass programme, which provides secondary students with access to particle physics data using dedicated visualisation and analysis software. Students meet scientists, learn about particle physics, accelerators and detectors, perform physics measurements and search for new phenomena, then compare results in an end-of-day videoconference with other classes. The most recent of these events was held from 7 March to 16 April 2019 with thousands of students participating in 332 classes held in 239 institutes from 54 countries around the world. We report on the evolution of Masterclasses in recent years, in both physics and computing scope, as well as in global reach.
