description: We study the influence of the quantum geometry on the magnetic responses of quadratic band crossing semimetals. More explicitly, we examine the Landau levels, quantum Hall effect, and magnetic susceptibility of a general two-band Hamiltonian that has fixed isotropic quadratic band dispersion but with tunable quantum geometry, in which the interband coupling is fully characterized by the maximum quantum distance $d_\mathrm{max}$. By continuously tuning $d_\mathrm{max}$ in the range of $0\leq d_\mathrm{max}\leq 1$, we investigate how the magnetic properties of the free electron model with $d_\mathrm{max}=0$ evolve into those of the bilayer graphene with $d_\mathrm{max}=1$. We demonstrate that despite sharing the same energy dispersion $ε(p) =\pm\frac{p^2}{2m}$, the charge carriers in the free electron model and bilayer graphene exhibit entirely distinct Landau levels and quantum Hall responses due to the nontrivial quantum geometry of the wave functions.

description: Background: With the onset of a second decade of opioid use creating devastating outcomes in the United States, there is value in studying the prevalence of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) in pregnant women, a group critical to this outbreak. We used Medicaid claims 2014-2019, to analyze the medical, social and economic aspects of OUD in pregnant women and their babies. Objectives: The research aims to study the impact of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) in Medicaid-enrolled pregnant women and model the vertical perinatal effect of OUD, known as Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), to the newborn baby. We also attempt to understand the effects of state legislation on doctor shopping and the role of prescribers in fraudulent solicitation of opioids. Methods: The research uses multivariate logistic regression to create a predictive model for high-risk pregnant women based on their claims history. Doctor shopping trends pre- and post-legislation are analyzed using regression discontinuity and graph analysis of the co-prescription network of physicians. Finally, OUD and NAS are modeled together as a probabilistic Bayesian belief network to simulate the cost of interventions, namely MAT enrollment, pharmacotherapy and dyad rooming-in. Results: Pregnant women who may have NAS offsprings are likely to have a history of nicotine addiction, alcohol use, dependence on pain medication and mental health diagnoses in the years leading up to pregnancy. State legislation is found to reduce prescription opioid shopping over the years, though the research highlights the need for policies to target complicit prescribers in addition to prescription monitoring. Finally, the compartment model calculates an incidence of 19-22% for downstream neurological delay in babies born to high-risk mothers. Lower delay rates are found to be associated with high MAT enrollment in the mother, high rooming-in of mother-infant dyad and low rate of pharmacotherapy in infants.

description: Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have gained popularity due to their high energy efficiency. Prior works have proposed various methods for training SNNs, including backpropagation-based methods. Training SNNs is computationally expensive compared to their conventional counterparts and would benefit from multiprocessor hardware acceleration. This is the first paper to propose inter-layer pipelining to accelerate training in SNNs using systolic array-based processors and multiprocessor scheduling. The impact of training using delayed gradients is observed using three networks training on different datasets, showing no degradation for small networks and < 10% degradation for large networks. The mapping of various training tasks of the SNN onto systolic arrays is formulated, and the proposed scheduling method is evaluated on the three networks. The results are compared against standard pipelining algorithms. The results show that the proposed method achieves an average speedup of 1.6X compared to standard pipelining algorithms, with an upwards of 2X improvement in some cases. The incurred communication overhead due to the proposed method is less than 0.5% of the total required communication of training.

description: The two-dimensional Yukawa-Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (2d-YSYK) model provides a universal theory of quantum phase transitions in metals in the presence of quenched random spatial fluctuations in the local position of the quantum critical point. It has a Fermi surface coupled to a scalar field by spatially random Yukawa interactions. We present full numerical solutions of a self-consistent disorder averaged analysis of the 2d-YSYK model in both the normal and superconducting states, obtaining electronic spectral functions, frequency-dependent conductivity, and superfluid stiffness. Our results reproduce key aspects of observations in the cuprates as analyzed by Michon et al. (arXiv:2205.04030). We also find a regime of increasing zero temperature superfluid stiffness with decreasing superconducting critical temperature, as is observed in bulk cuprates.

description: Mental illness historically has had a stigma surrounding it. For years that was my understanding of mental illness as well. To be able to see mental illness and its treatments in a healthy way, I had to suffer a radical change to my life. The beginning of this paper is my story as to how I came to understand mental illness in a different light. Following that, Ch. 2 explores a brief history of mental illness and how it has been treated in society. Next, it delves into the current social narrative about mental health and what the entertainment industry is doing to either help or hurt the de-stigmatization. Lastly, the personal narrative is analyzed. The story an individual tells themselves is influenced by many different elements. This is something on which more research needs to be done. Individual’s perceptions about mental health impact their likelihood to seek help. To explore this, I surveyed 379 people to address their personal beliefs of mental illness. To analyze the data, I split the respondents into groups of those diagnosed and those that have not been diagnosed. Of the four hypotheses, only one group was supported. After that, I ran a post hoc analysis looking at perceived societal views and that came out much stronger. Additional research needs to be done on perceived societal views and how that impacts an individual’s decision to express concerns or seek help for mental illness.

We built two cameras, a 256-pixel camera with S14161-6050HS SiPMs for the Trinity Demonstrator located on Frisco Peak, Utah, and a 512-pixel camera with S14521-6050AN SiPMs for the EUSO-SPB2 Cherenkov Telescope. The front-end electronics are based on the eMUSIC ASIC, and the camera signals are sampled and digitized with the 100MS/s and 12-bit AGET system. Both cameras are liquid-cooled. We detail the camera concept and the results from characterizing the SiPMs, bench testing, and calibrating the two cameras.

description: Mobile communication devices have multitasking embedded software running in their
operating systems (OS) as well as applications. Both the OS modules and the application
components are assigned predetermined memory in those devices due to near-realtime
performance requirements and lack of virtual memory. Memory (stack and
heap) overflow problems occur in such software components because of programmer's
inability to accurately estimate the size of the needed memory and also because of
Mandelbugs due to their complexity. A new software rejuvenation variation called Opportunistic
Micro Rejuvenation (OMR) is proposed where a task that `misbehaves' is
identified and rejuvenated at an opportune instant. Following the traditional model
for software rejuvenation, a Stochastic Area Network model is used to simulate and
study the availability of such embedded systems with OMR. It is shown that OMR
alone will increase the availability only slightly but when combined with other memory
management techniques, such as shared supplementary memory, OMR will increase the
availability significantly.

description: Abstract

This paper tries to explore the relationship between digital marketing performance, business intelligence, and knowledge management in the pharmaceutical sector. In a high-technology environment where the pharmaceutical industry is also caught up in fast changes and keen competition, this study will examine the mediating role of business intelligence in knowledge management and its relation to digital marketing performance. The data were collected from digital marketing managers in the pharmaceutical industry in Jordan, and analysis was performed through SPSS and PROCESS Macro v3.5 to test the direct and indirect effects. Findings indicate that knowledge management directly influences digital marketing performance β = 0.06, p = 0.08, and indirectly through business intelligence β = 0.44, p = 0.00. The total effect of knowledge management and business intelligence on digital marketing performance is 0.50, which is significant with a confidence interval not crossing zero—LLCI = 0.36, ULCI = 0.56, hence statistically significant. Moreover, the R-squared value of 0.63 indicates that the model explains a large proportion of variance in digital marketing performance. The findings emphasize the fact that knowledge management, combined with business intelligence, greatly enhances digital marketing performance by improving creativity, accessibility, and strategic decision-making. The paper concludes that pharmaceutical companies that invest in these technologies will be at a competitive advantage and afford sustainable growth. Future research should focus on specific business intelligence tools that could further optimize knowledge management and digital marketing performance across different sectors.

description: The accretion disks of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) harboring in active galactic nuclei (AGN) are considered to be an ideal site for producing different types of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The detectability of these GRB phenomena hidden in AGN disks is highly dependent on the dynamical evolution of the GRB relativistic jets. By investigating the reverse and forward shock dynamics due to the interaction between the jets and AGN disk material, we find that the relativistic jets can successfully break out from the disks only for a sufficiently high luminosity and a long enough duration. In comparison, relatively normal GRB jets are inclined to be choked in the disks, unless the GRBs occur near an SMBH with relatively low mass (e.g., $\sim 10^6M_{\odot}$). For the choked jets, unlike normal GRB prompt and afterglow emission, we can only expect to detect emission from the forward shock when the shock is very close to the edge of the disks, i.e., the shock breakout emission and subsequent cooling of the shock.

description: A new scaling regime characterized by a $z=1$ dynamical critical exponent has been reported in several numerical simulations of the one-dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang and noisy Burgers equations. In these works, this scaling, differing from the well-known KPZ one $z=3/2$, was found to emerge in the tensionless limit for the interface and in the inviscid limit for the fluid. Based on functional renormalization group, the origin of this scaling has been elucidated. It was shown to be controlled by a yet unpredicted fixed point of the one-dimensional Burgers-KPZ equation, termed inviscid Burgers (IB) fixed point. The associated universal properties, including the scaling function, were calculated. All these findings were restricted to $d=1$, and it raises the intriguing question of the fate of this new IB fixed point in higher dimensions. In this work, we address this issue and analyze the multi-dimensional Burgers-KPZ equation using functional renormalization group. We show that the IB fixed point exists in all dimensions $d\geq 0$, and that it controls the large momentum behavior of the correlation functions in the inviscid limit. It turns out that it yields in all $d$ the same super-universal value $z=1$ for the dynamical exponent.

description: The novel SoLAr concept aims to extend sensitivities of liquid-argon neutrino detectors down to the MeV scale for next-generation detectors. SoLAr plans to accomplish this with a liquid-argon time projection chamber that employs an anode plane with dual charge and light readout, which enables precision matching of light and charge signals for data acquisition and reconstruction purposes. We present the results of a first demonstration of the SoLAr detector concept with a small-scale prototype detector integrating a pixel-based charge readout and silicon photomultipliers on a shared printed circuit board. We discuss the design of the prototype, and its operation and performance, highlighting the capability of such a detector design.

The formal properties of this gesture include a pronation of the forearms to bring the palms downward while the fingers spread away, and is most often performed with both hands. Functionally, it is found with utterances that signal negation, particularly the absence of something. A growing body of literature links ‘away’ trajectories with negation, or negative evaluation of speech content cross-linguistically. The temporal alignment between these gesture and lexical content also shows that cross-linguistic differences in word order appear to affect performance of gestures associated with negated content.

description: The European Agroforestry Federation (EURAF) aims to promote the use of trees on farms throughout Europe. We welcome publication of the Strategic Dialogue for the Future of Agriculture, and the fact that agroforestry is identified as a key tool for sustainable food systems (EURAF Post 4.9.24). Europe needs an emergency, but sustainable, programme of tree planting and renewal on agricultural land. To achieve this we look forward to a continuing dialogue with the wider agricultural and forestry sector. Further information on the role of agroforestry in EU agriculture and forestry is available from the DigitAF  and Reforest projects and other projects listed on the DigitAF website.  The European office of “World Agroforestry” (CIFOR/ICRAF), provides a link between global and European agroforestry knowledge. This vision document is structured around three key pillars: knowledge, support, and impact measurement. We also give 17 concrete policy recommendations for EU Member States and the EU Commission.

description: We are proposing, as an ideal candidate for caloritronic devices operating at subKelvin temperatures, a hybrid superconductor-semiconductor platform named InAs on insulator (InAsOI). This heterostructure is made by doped InAs grown on an insulating buffer of InAlAs on a GaAs substrate. Caloritronic devices aim to heat or cool electrons out of equilibrium with respect to the phonon degree of freedom. However, their performances are usually limited by the strength of the electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling and the associated power loss. Our work discusses the advantages of the InAsOI platform, which are based on the significantly low e-ph coupling measured compared to all-metallic state-of-the-art caloritronic devices. Our structure demonstrates values of the e-ph coupling constant up to two orders of magnitude smaller than typical values in metallic structures.

description: Lead (Pb) is one of the most harmful and most abundant neurotoxins in the environment. Despite the extensive movement made to eradicate toxic levels of Pb in the environment, children, predominately in lower socioeconomic areas, are still exposed to varying levels of Pb. Human studies suggest that Pb exposure leads to altered drug consumption in adults by altering underlying neural mechanisms, specifically dopamine (DA) activity. However, there is limited research on this at blood Pb levels below 10 μg/dL, levels often seen in children growing up in neighborhoods located in old industrial and urban areas. To model how early-life low-level Pb exposure effects DA-dependent behaviors associated with addiction in adulthood, we used C57BL/6J mice. Litters were weaned at PND 21 and assigned to either a three-week history of 30 parts per million (ppm) Lead (IV) Acetate exposure or a control condition of 0 ppm Pb in DI drinking water. After the Pb exposure period, mice were switched to regular tap water until they reached adulthood. Afterward, separate animals were tested in one of three experiments: two-bottle choice alcohol preference drinking, alcohol-induced behavioral sensitization (EBS), and cocaine-induced behavioral sensitization (CBS). In experiment 1, our hypothesis was met, and both male and female mice with a prior Pb exposure displayed significantly higher alcohol intake and preference scores over the three-week period than control mice. In experiment 2, there were no differences in EBS and no evidence of EBS in any of the groups. However, there was an increased acute response to 2.0 g/kg EtOH in the Pb-exposed chronic group as compared to the control animals. Lastly, in experiment 3, Pb-exposed animals in the chronic cocaine group were more sensitive to the effects of cocaine (10 mg/kg) across days than the controls, both the acute cocaine groups and both saline control groups. Thus, with these experiments, we concluded that low levels of developmental Pb exposure might be targeting DA in the reward pathway, which is essential for alcohol intake and drug sensitization.
Feedback-driven quantum reservoir computing for time-series analysis

description: Quantum reservoir computing (QRC) is a highly promising computational paradigm that leverages quantum systems as a computational resource for nonlinear information processing. While its application to time-series analysis is eagerly anticipated, prevailing approaches suffer from the collapse of the quantum state upon measurement, resulting in the erasure of temporal input memories. Neither repeated initializations nor weak measurements offer a fundamental solution, as the former escalates the time complexity while the latter restricts the information extraction from the Hilbert space. To address this issue, we propose the feedback-driven QRC framework. This methodology employs projective measurements on all qubits for unrestricted access to the quantum state, with the measurement outcomes subsequently fed back into the reservoir to restore the memory of prior inputs. We demonstrate that our QRC successfully acquires the fading-memory property through the feedback connections, a critical element in time-series processing. Notably, analysis of measurement trajectories reveal three distinct phases depending on the feedback strength, with the memory performance maximized at the edge of chaos. We also evaluate the predictive capabilities of our QRC, demonstrating its suitability for forecasting signals originating from quantum spin systems.

description: Northern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum; hereafter “blueberry”) is an economically important crop within Michigan, Oregon, and Washington who collectively produce 64% of all blueberries grown in the United States. Blueberry production relies on insect-mediated pollination to obtain marketable fruits and growers rely upon rented honey bee (Apis mellifera) hives to achieve profitable yields. Blueberry flower morphology is not conducive to efficient pollination by honey bees which can lead to pollination deficits and yield losses. Poor weather can also reduce honey bee activity and pollination. Commercial blueberry production also depends on pesticide inputs during the pollination period to protect flowers and limit the spread of diseases and viruses. This can put rented honey bees at risk of pesticide exposure while hives are stationed in blueberry fields. Honey bees are in high demand as the cultivation of entomophilous crops increases and beekeepers are sometimes hesitant to place their hives in blueberry fields as colony health tends to decrease during and after hives have been stationed in blueberry. Strategic hive placement may be utilized by growers and beekeepers to improve pollination in blueberry and limit honey bee hive exposure to pesticides, but research informing these practices is limited. In this study, commercial fields in Michigan, Oregon, and Washington received either clumped or dispersed hive placement treatments to determine how these placement strategies affect honey bee activity, crop pollination, and the amount of pesticide drift landing on hive boxes. Clumping was characterized by several pallets of hives concentrated in a single or few drop locations around the blueberry field, while the dispersed treatment was characterized by single pallets of hives spread along the field edge. Furthermore, hives in the dispersed treatment were closer to the field edge, while hives in the clumped treatment were further from the field edge. Clumping hives increased honey bee activity but did not improve overall crop pollination. Furthermore, clumping hives did not decrease the overall amount of pesticide drift on hives across all field locations, but the lack of differences may be due to high variability across sites and differences in grower management. Further analysis of a case study in Washington, where management was held more consistent, suggests clumping can reduce pesticide exposure and increasing the distance from field edge to hives can reduce pesticide drift onto hives. Overall, growers and beekeepers can consider clumping as a strategy to reduce potential exposure to pesticides from drift. This placement strategy should also be more efficient for beekeepers without reducing pollination outcomes.

description: The growth in online goods delivery is causing a dramatic surge in urban vehicle traffic from last-mile deliveries. On the other hand, ride-sharing has been on the rise with the success of ride-sharing platforms and increased research on using autonomous vehicle technologies for routing and matching. The future of urban mobility for passengers and goods relies on leveraging new methods that minimize operational costs and environmental footprints of transportation systems.
This paper considers combining passenger transportation with goods delivery to improve vehicle-based transportation. Even though the problem has been studied with model-based approaches where the dynamic model of the transportation system environment is defined, model-free approaches where the dynamics of the environment are learned by interaction have been demonstrated to be adaptable to new or erratic environment dynamics.
FlexPool is a distributed model-free deep reinforcement learning algorithm that jointly serves passengers \& goods workloads by learning optimal dispatch policies from its interaction with the environment. The model-free algorithm (as opposed to a model-based one) is an algorithm which does not use the transition probability distribution (and the reward function) associated with the Markov decision process (MDP). The proposed algorithm pools passengers for a ride-sharing service and delivers goods using a multi-hop routing method. These flexibilities decrease the fleet's operational cost and environmental footprint while maintaining service levels for passengers and goods. The dispatching algorithm based on deep reinforcement learning is integrated with an efficient matching algorithm for passengers and goods. Through simulations on a realistic urban mobility platform, we demonstrate that FlexPool outperforms other model-free settings in serving the demands from passengers \& goods. FlexPool achieves 30\% higher fleet utilization and 35\% higher fuel efficiency in comparison to (i) model-free approaches where vehicles transport a combination of passengers \& goods without the use of multi-hop transit, and (ii) model-free approaches where vehicles exclusively transport either passengers or goods.

description: Insect production for food and feed presents a promising supplement to ensure food safety and address the adverse impacts of agriculture on climate and environment in the future. However, optimisation is required for insect production to realise its full potential. This can be by targeted improvement of traits of interest through selective breeding, an approach which has so far been underexplored and underutilised in insect farming. Here we present a comprehensive review of the selective breeding framework in the context of insect production. We systematically evaluate adjustments of selective breeding techniques to the realm of insects and highlight the essential components integral to the breeding process. The discussion covers every step of a conventional breeding scheme, such as formulation of breeding objectives, phenotyping, estimation of genetic parameters and breeding values, selection of appropriate breeding strategies, and mitigation of issues associated with genetic diversity depletion and inbreeding. This review combines knowledge from diverse disciplines, bridging the gap between animal breeding, quantitative genetics, evolutionary biology, and entomology, offering an integrated view of the insect breeding research area and uniting knowledge which has previously remained scattered across diverse fields of expertise.

title: Crafting the Academy: Writing Sociology and Disciplinary Legitimacy

Subjects: subject: Sociology, writing, hegemony, power, legitimacy, value, craft, critique

description: This thesis is an ethnographic study of the craft of writing in U.K. sociology. Centred around key concepts of consecration and value, the thesis uses Pierre Bourdieu's theory of practice to examine the relationship between the craft of writing and becoming or feeling legitimate within sociology. The thesis sits within a context of debates in sociology which have examined the idea of disciplinarity: what is sociology’s history, practice, and purpose? However, whilst sociologists have paid significant attention to the construction of the discipline and even how ‘the discipline’ writes, no one has yet examined this from the perspective of individual sociologists and the everyday of their writing practices and processes. This thesis addresses the gap in the research. The work here is based on a year-long ethnography of ten academics working in U.K. sociology departments. The thesis contributes significantly to understanding the relationship between macro-level structures of power and domination (institutional power and structural social inequality), and how this is felt and engaged with on a micro/everyday level, through writing. It adds an original perspective to considering how legitimacy is produced in sociological knowledge, and understood to reside in/with sociologists themselves. Crucially, the ethnography adeptly demonstrates that underpinning these consecrated intellectual and institutional positions are structures of ‘race’, class, and gender inequality. As such, the thesis shows how legitimate(d) ideological disciplinary positions interpolate with institutional racism, sexism, and classism in elite and exclusionary fashions. Thus, this study of the craft of writing in sociology gives original access to means by which the reproduction of power and privilege is done on a micro, everyday level. Moreover, the research here gives cause for hope: participants’ accounts show where hegemonic power may be challenged and interrupted. They mark where change may begin.
