Strong vs. weak definites: Evidence from Lithuanian adjectives
Creators: name: Šereikaitė, Milena
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: While Lithuanian (a Baltic language) lacks definite articles, it can use an adjectival
 system to encode definiteness. Adjectives can appear in a bare short form as in
 graži ‘beautiful.nom.f.sg’ and a long form with the definite morpheme -ji(s) as in
 gražio-ji ‘beautiful.nom.f.sg-def’. In this paper, I explore definiteness properties of
 Lithuanian nominals with long and short form adjectives. Recent cross-linguistic
 work identifies two kinds of definites: strong definites based on familiarity and
 weak definites licensed by uniqueness (Schwarz 2009; 2013; Arkoh & Matthewson
 2013; Jenks 2015; i.a.). Following this line of work, I argue that short form adjec-
 tives, in addition to being indefinite, are also compatible with situations licensed
 by uniqueness, and in this way resemble weak article definites. Long form adjec-
 tives pattern with strong article definites, as evidenced by familiar definite uses and
 certain bridging contexts parallel to the German data (Schwarz 2009). This study
 provides novel evidence for the distinction between strong versus weak definites
 showing that this distinction is not necessarily reflected in determiner patterns,
 but it can also be detected in the adjectival system.

description: There are two main objectives of the Freight Movement and Intermodal Access in Kentucky Study (SPR 98-189) that is being undertaken by the Kentucky Transportation Center for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC): 1) evaluation of the access for trucks between intermodal or other truck generating sites and the National Highway System (NHS); and 2) furthering the understanding of freight commodity flows throughout the state. This report is slightly different from the others that summarize the access evaluation to a particular cluster of existing facilities. This route provides access to Edmonson county from the Western Kentucky Parkway (in Grayson county) and from I-65 (in Warren county) as shown on Figure 1. This route is not currently used by many trucks. Edmonson county was recommended for study by the Division of Transportation Planning of the KYTC due to the lack of 102 inch wide truck access. There is also a gross weight limit of 62,000 lbs on the entire route. The route is located in the Barren River Area Development District and is in KYTC Highway District #3. Work on other specific sites as well as the freight commodity flow task of SPR 98-189 are on-going and are documented elsewhere.  Most of the sites to be evaluated in this project were selected from two existing databases (a truck facility survey from 1994 and the intermodal facility inventory) based on ADD and KYTC planner recommendations, geographic location, distance to the National Highway System, and the number of trucks accessing the site. Consideration was also made for the freight type handled and transportation modes used. As indicated above these issues were not considered here as the county was recommended for study based on the lack of truck access.  The site was visited several times for data collection and video recording as listed in Appendix A. No facilities that might currently generate significant truck traffic were observed. Large numbers of trucks were noted near the interchange with I-65 due to truck stops. The access to these sites was deemed good. The area surrounding the route is generally rural although it travels through several small towns and also Brownsville which is a larger community. The phone survey which was conducted for other truck routes under evaluation was not conducted here due to the lack of current facilities. In the other cases studied during this project, the largest truck currently using the route was considered for evaluation of features such as off-tracking, grade, and turning radii. In this case, these trucks do not necessarily use this route, but access for a 48 foot tracker trailer was evaluated.

description: Gamma ray bursts (GRBs) are known to come in two duration classes, separated at ~2 s. Long bursts originate from star forming regions in galaxies, have accompanying supernovae (SNe) when near enough to observe and are likely caused by massive-star collapsars. Recent observations show that short bursts originate in regions within their host galaxies with lower star formation rates consistent with binary neutron star (NS) or NS - black hole (BH) mergers. Moreover, although their hosts are predominantly nearby galaxies, no SNe have been so far associated with short GRBs. We report here on the bright, nearby GRB 060614 that does not fit in either class. Its ~102 s duration groups it with long GRBs, while its temporal lag and peak luminosity fall entirely within the short GRB subclass. Moreover, very deep optical observations exclude an accompanying supernova, similar to short GRBs. This combination of a long duration event without accompanying SN poses a challenge to both a collapsar and merging NS interpretation and opens the door on a new GRB classification scheme that straddles both long and short bursts.

description: We report the first detection of the 205 um 3P1 - 3P0 [NII] line from a ground-based observatory using a direct detection spectrometer. The line was detected from the Carina star formation region using the South Pole Imaging Fabry-Perot Interferometer (SPIFI) on the Antarctic Submillimeter Telescope and Remote Observatory (AST/RO) at South Pole. The [NII] 205 um line strength indicates a low-density (n ~ 32 cm^-3 ionized medium, similar to the low-density ionized halo reported previously in its [OIII] 52 and 88 um line emission. When compared with the ISO [CII] observations of this region, we find that ~27% of the [CII] line emission arises from this low-density ionized gas, but the large majority ~ 73% of the observed [CII] line emission arises from the neutral interstellar medium. This result supports and underpins prior conclusions that most of the observed [CII] 158 um line emission from Galactic and extragalactic sources arises from the warm, dense photodissociated surfaces of molecular clouds. The detection of the [NII] line demonstrates the utility of Antarctic sites for THz spectroscopy.

description: In this paper, a software implementation that records Global Positioning System (GPS) and long-range navigation (Loran) measurement data output from an integrated GPS/Loran receiver and organizes them based on time is proposed. The purpose of the developed software is to collect measurements from multiple Loran transmitter chains for performance analysis of navigation methods using Loran, and to organize the data based on time to make it easy to use them. In addition, GPS measurements are also collected and managed as ground truth data for performance analysis. The implemented software consists of three modules: recording, classification, and conversion. The recording module records raw text data streamed from the receiver, and the classification module classifies the recorded text data according to the message format. The conversion module parses the classified text data, sorts GPS and Loran measurements based on timestamp, and outputs them according to the software platform of the user to analyze the measurements. Each module of the software runs automatically without user intervention. The functionality of the implemented software was verified using GPS and Loran measurements collected over 24 h from an actual integrated GPS/Loran receiver.

description: We use six, high-resolution $Λ$CDM simulations of galaxy formation to study how emission from dark matter annihilation is affected by baryonic processes. These simulations produce isolated, disc-dominated galaxies with structure, stellar populations, and stellar and halo masses comparable to those of the Milky Way. They resolve dark matter structures with mass above $\sim 10^6$ $\rm M_{\odot}$ and are each available in both full-physics and dark-matter-only versions. In the full-physics case, formation of the stellar galaxy enhances annihilation radiation from the dominant smooth component of the galactic halo by a factor of three, and its central concentration increases substantially. In contrast, subhalo fluxes are $reduced$ by almost an order of magnitude, partly because of changes in internal structure, partly because of increased tidal effects; they drop relative to the flux from the smooth halo by 1.5 orders of magnitude. The expected flux from the brightest subhalo is four orders of magnitude below that from the smooth halo, making it very unlikely that any subhalo will be detected before robust detection of the inner Galaxy. We use recent simulations of halo structure across the full $Λ$CDM mass range to extrapolate to the smallest (Earth-mass) subhaloes, concluding, in contrast to earlier work, that the total annihilation flux from Milky Way subhaloes will be less than that from the smooth halo, as viewed both from the Sun and by a distant observer. Fermi-LAT may marginally resolve annihilation radiation from the very brightest subhaloes, which, typically, will contain stars.

description: El establecimiento de las áreas de servicio exclusivo, ponen en entredicho el derecho a la libertad económica de los usuarios, representado en su facultad para escoger libre y autónomamente al prestador de sus servicios públicos, de acuerdo con sus necesidades y capacidades. Y sucede que, si bien en el marco de la función social del estado y en procura del bienestar general este derecho colectivo de los usuarios y consumidores, podría ceder ante la necesidad de garantizar derechos fundamentales, su afectación persiste una vez finalizada el área de servicio exclusivo, quedando en un limbo jurídico de protección en el proceso de tránsito entre la finalización de dichas áreas y la apertura, nuevamente, al régimen de libre competencia económica. Como pudo verse a lo largo de este trabajo, puede concluirse que no existen reales condiciones de protección de la libertad económica de los usuarios en estos periodos, al contrario, se ven sujetos al abuso de la posición dominante de los prestadores, e incluso de las entidades territoriales, por lo que se requieren mayores precisiones frente a la garantía de sus derechos como usuarios consumidores del servicio.
description: The establishment of exclusive service areas calls into question the right to economic freedom of users, represented in their ability to freely and autonomously choose the provider of their public services, according to their needs and capabilities. And it happens that, although within the framework of the social function of the state and in pursuit of general well-being this collective right of users and consumers could give way to the need to guarantee fundamental rights, its impact persists once the service area ends. exclusive, remaining in a legal limbo of protection in the transit process between the completion of said areas and the opening, again, to the regime of free economic competition. As could be seen throughout this work, it can be concluded that there are no real conditions for protecting the economic freedom of users in these periods; on the contrary, they are subject to abuse of the dominant position of the providers, and even of the territorial entities, so greater precision is required regarding the guarantee of their rights as consumer users of the service.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας διπλωματικής διατριβής ήταν η ανάπτυξη και αξιολόγηση αισθητήρα μέτρησης νανοσωματιδίων, που παράγονται σε βιομηχανικές εφαρμογές – διεργασίες, όπως οι αντιδραστήρες αερολυμάτων. Για την αξιολόγηση του αισθητήρα σε εργαστηριακό επίπεδο παράχθηκαν αερολύματα νανοκαταλυτών (φερριτών) σε πιλοτικό αντιδραστήρα πυρόλυσης νέφους αερολύματος ( Aerosol Spray Pyrolysis ). Ο αισθητήρας που χρησιμοποιήθηκε, βασίζεται στην αρχή μέτρησης της ηλεκτρικής κινητικότητας των σωματιδίων ενός αερολύματος (mobility analysis) και είναι ένας διαφορικός αναλυτής ηλεκτρικής κινητικότητας ( Differential Mobility Analyzer ) που κατασκευάστηκε στο ερευνητικό κέντρο της CIEMAT στη Μαδρίτη της Ισπανίας το 1998. Η συσκευή αυτή είναι ένα βασικό και καθιερωμένο εργαλείο στον τομέα των ατμοσφαιρικών αερολυμάτων από τη δεκαετία του 1950. Η κατανομή της ηλεκτρικής κινητικότητας των σωματιδίων ενός αερολύματος, μπορεί κατ’ επέκταση να μετατραπεί σε κατανομή μεγέθους των σωματιδίων του αερολύματος, εφόσον είναι γνωστή η κατανομή των φορτίων σε αυτά ( aerosol charge distribution ). Από την κατανομή μεγέθους των σωματιδίων του αερολύματος, καθορίζονται δύο σημαντικές παράμετροι χαρακτηρισμού των παραγόμενων νανο-υλικών, το μέγεθος και η συγκέντρωση αυτών. Από τις μετρήσεις αερολυμάτων που διεξήχθησαν με τον τροποποιημένο Yale / Vienna DMA και την επεξεργασία των κατανομών μεγέθους σωματιδίων αυτών, διαπιστώθηκε η αξιοπιστία των αποτελεσμάτων των μετρήσεων όσον αφορά στα μεγέθη των σωματιδίων. Δυστυχώς, δεν ισχύει το ίδιο για την πραγματική συγκέντρωση ή αλλιώς τον αριθμό των σωματιδίων του αερολύματος. Πρέπει επίσης να αναφερθεί, ότι για τη δειγματοληψία από τα παραγόμενα αερολύματα νανοκαταλυτών, χρησιμοποιήθηκαν δύο διαφορετικά συστήματα αραίωσης αυτών, τα οποία αξιολογήθηκαν ως προς την καταλληλότητα τους. Ως αποτελεσματικότερη, αποδείχθηκε η διάταξη αραίωσης του αερολύματος με τους εν σειρά diluters της εταιρίας DEKATI ltd.
description: Differential mobility analyzers are the most commonly used tools in the area of aerosol science since 1950. Their function is based on the electrical mobility analysis method. The scope of this thesis was the calibration and evaluation of a modified Yale/ Vienna differential mobility analyzer and the subsequent measurement of the size distribution function of ferrite aerosols. The main conclusions were that the tested DMA gives adequate results as far as the aerosol size is concerned, but not reliable results for the concentration of the aerosol particles. Therefore, correction functions must be developed in order to produce valid size distribution measurements with the DMA in question.

description: We consider the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$J$ chain ($J\in\mathbb{N}/2$) with anisotropy parameter $Δ$. Assuming that $Δ>2J$, and introducing threshold energies $E_{K}:=K\left(1-\frac{2J}Δ\right)$, we show that the bipartite entanglement entropy (EE) of states belonging to any spectral subspace with energy less than $E_{K+1}$ satisfy a logarithmically corrected area law with prefactor $(2\lfloor K/J\rfloor-2)$. This generalizes previous results by Beaud and Warzel as well as Abdul-Rahman, Stolz and one of the authors, who covered the spin-$1/2$ case.

This requirement implies that the non-Gaussianity parameter $f_{NL}$ is typically bounded by the tensor-scalar ratio $r$ from above, namely $f_{NL}\lesssim 518\cdot r^{1\over 4}$. If $f_{NL}=10^2$, inflation occurred around the GUT scale.

Για το σκοπό αυτό χρησιμοποιήθηκαν πέντε διαφορετικοί συνδυασμοί από πράσινο και ξερό καλάμι και φρέσκια κοπριά αιγοπροβάτων. Οι συνδυασμοί αυτοί κομπόστας εφαρμόσθηκαν στο έδαφος και αξιολογήθηκαν ως λίπασμα σε καλλιέργεια τομάτας Σαντορίνης. Κατά τη διάρκεια της κομποστοποίησης παρατηρήθηκαν πτώση του λόγου C/N, αύξηση των συγκεντρώσεων C, N, P, καθώς και μικρές μεταβολές στις συγκεντρώσεις των στοιχείων K, Na, Mg, Ca, Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn. Στο έδαφος ο συνδυασμός ξερό καλάμι και κοπριά είχε τα καλύτερα αποτελέσματα στις φυσικοχημικές του ιδιότητες πριν τη σπορά και μετά τη συγκομιδή. Στην καλλιέργεια τομάτας Σαντορίνης ο συνδυασμός πράσινο καλάμι και κοπριά είχε την καλύτερη απόδοση, τις υψηλότερες συγκεντρώσεις θρεπτικών στοιχείων στα τμήματα του φυτού και στους καρπούς αλλά και την υψηλότερη συγκέντρωση ασκορβικού οξέος στους καρπούς εν συγκρίσει με τους άλλους συνδυασμούς κομπόστας.
description: The aim of this work was to identify if plant material of Phragmites australis can be used as compost. Five different mixtures of green and dried material and coat manure were used. Then they were applied in soil and tested as fertilizer in tomato Santorinis cultivation. During composting C/N ratio was decreased, C, N, P concentrations were increased while K, Na, Mg, Ca, Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn concentrations had no significant differences. In soil the mixture of dried plant material and coat manure had better results in its physicochemical properties before sowing and after harvest. In tomato Santorinis cultivation the mixture of green plant material and coat manure had better yield, higher nutrient concentrations in plant parts and tomatoes and also higher ascorbic acid concentration in tomatoes than the other mixtures.

description: We investigate the gravitational radiation produced by a linearly accelerated source in general relativity. The investigation is performed by studying the vacuum C metric, which is interpreted as representing the exterior space-time of an uniformly accelerating spherically symmetric gravitational source, and is carried out in the context of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity. For an observer sufficiently far from both the (modified) Schwarzschild and Rindler horizons, which is a realistic situation, we obtain a simple expression for the total emitted gravitational radiation. We also briefly discuss on the absolute or relative character of the accelerated motion.

On (in)definite expressions in American Sign Language
Creators: name: Irani, Ava
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: This paper provides an analysis of the properties and distribution of the pointing
 sign ix and bare NPs in American Sign Language. I argue that ix followed by an NP
 when referring to a previously established locus is a strong definite article along the
 lines of Schwarz (2009; 2013). This claim goes contra previous analyses that draw
 parallels between ix and demonstratives (Koulidobrova & Lillo-Martin 2016). The
 data presented here also show that both bare NPs and ix+NPs double as definites
 and indefinites, which suggests that definiteness is not semantically encoded in the
 language. I further illustrate that the interaction of the use of bare NPs and ix+NPs
 indicates that the specification of a locus has an impact on the interpretation of an
 expression as being definite or indefinite. An ix+NP cannot refer back to a bare NP
 in the discourse due to the underspecification of a locus feature that characterizes
 bare NPs. These findings allow me to reanalyze the properties of the two kinds of
 nominals in the language.

The processor used was Xilinx Microblaze soft processor.Before the dual processor system has been developed, there has been an analytical research using one processor in order to find the optimal configuration. This system was used as reference for the dual processor system. Developing the dual processor system, there has been applied methods of data parallelism and pipelining. There has also been designed a homogeneous and a heterogeneous system. But the optimal configuration of the single processor system could not be transferred in the dual processor system, because of limited memory resources (Block RAM). Thou there has been a speed up of about 70% compared to the single processor system.
title: Dynamic Routing Structure for an RTI Taking an Evolutionary Approach Towards Optimization
Creators: name: Davis, Matthew Ryan
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: he Runtime Infrastructure (RTI) is the common communication framework that High Level Architecture (HLA) simulations incorporate to exchange data. By abstracting the network communication layer from simulation, a common protocol for information exchange is achieved, allowing any RTI- based simulation to exchange data with any other. Such commonality can bring a limitation upon the network infrastructure, enforcing all federates to agree on the same communication policy. While this static network structure is not always the case, an optimal choice would be to adhere to the dynamic properties of a network. Static network configurations deny federates the ability to dynamically avoid network congestion, thus forcing some, if not all, federates to endure suboptimal communication performance. Simulation states can be dynamic, which further allows them to be defined by a set of more general states, based on the network's traffic pattern or signature. By taking advantage of these signatures, the RTI can incorporate a specific routing scheme, per signature, thus improving overall network performance. It is possible for an RTI to anticipate the next simulation state, and effectively predict the proper network routing configuration to achieve optimal network communication. RTI- s (a scalable RTI implementation) has been augmented to interpret the simulation state and dynamically reroute client federates based on optimal paths determined by taking an evolutionary approach to routing.
Energy per particle of nuclear and neutron matter from subleading chiral three-nucleon interactions

description: We derive from the subleading contributions to the chiral three-nucleon interaction [published in Phys.~Rev.~C77, 064004 (2008) and Phys.~Rev.~C84, 054001 (2011)] their first-order contributions to the energy per particle of isospin-symmetric nuclear matter and pure neutron matter in an analytical way. For the variety of short-range and long-range terms that constitute the subleading chiral 3N-force the pertinent closed 3-ring, 2-ring, and 1-ring diagrams are evaluated. While 3-ring diagrams vanish by a spin-trace and the results for 2-ring diagrams can be given in terms of elementary functions of the ratio Fermi-momentum over pion mass, one ends up in most cases for the closed 1-ring diagrams with one-parameter integrals. The same treatment is applied to the subsubleading chiral three-nucleon interactions as far as these have been constructed up to now.

description: We are engaged in a comprehensive program to find reliable elemental abundances in and to probe the physical structure of the Orion Nebula, the brightest and best-resolved H II region. In the course of developing a robust extinction correction covering our optical and ultraviolet FOS and STIS observations, we examined the decrement within various series of He I lines. The decrements of the 2^3S-n^3P, 2^3P-n^3S and 3^3S-n^3P series are not in accord with caseB recombination theory. None of these anomalous He I decrements can be explained by extinction, indicating the presence of additional radiative transfer effects in He I lines ranging from the near-IR to the near-UV. CLOUDY photoionization equilibrium models including radiative transfer are developed to predict the observed He I decrements and the quantitative agreement is quite remarkable. Following from these results, select He I lines are combined with H I and [O II] lines and stellar extinction data to validate a new normalizable analytic expression for the wavelength dependence of the extinction. In so doing, the He+/H+ abundance is also derived.

Transition between chaotic and stochastic universality classes of kinetic roughening

description: The dynamics of non-equilibrium spatially extended systems are often dominated by fluctuations, due to e.g.\ deterministic chaos or to intrinsic stochasticity. This reflects into generic scale invariant or kinetic roughening behavior that can be classified into universality classes defined by critical exponent values and by the probability distribution function (PDF) of field fluctuations. Suitable geometrical constraints are known to change secondary features of the PDF while keeping the values of the exponents unchanged, inducing universality subclasses. Working on the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation as a paradigm of spatiotemporal chaos, we show that the physical nature of the prevailing fluctuations (chaotic or stochastic) can also change the universality class while respecting the exponent values, as the PDF is substantially altered. This transition takes place at a non-zero value of the stochastic noise amplitude and may be suitable for experimental verification.

description: In a recent project for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC), researchers were tasked with developing a method to objectively evaluate the access for large trucks between intermodal or other truck traffic generating sites and the National Highway System (NHS). The routes evaluated were the actual roadway segments used by large volumes of trucks traveling between the intermodal or other facilities and the NHS. This choice to evaluate specific heavily used roadway segments, as opposed to evaluating an entire highway or roadway corridor was based on the recommendation of the state-wide Intermodal Advisory Panel which advised the Cabinet on intermodal issues. This allowed researchers to identify and focus on the actual problems being experienced by the truck traffic, even when the routes included segments of many different highways and jurisdictions. Part of this study included the development of objective measures that could be used for comparing and prioritizing problem sections. This paper documents the methodology that was developed and is currently being used to evaluate routes to 50 truck trip generators throughout Kentucky. The procedure begins with a telephone survey with site operators/managers to identify problems along the route. Each route is evaluated with respect to three types of features: subjective, point and continuous. The rankings of each point and continuous element into the categories of"preferred", "adequate", and "less than adequate" is converted to a relative urgency rating by assigning relative weights for truck volume and section length. Point and subjective features are identified for spot improvements where appropriate. Finally, the research team grades the overall route on a subjective scale of 1 to 10.

description: Based on a Liouville-space formulation of open systems, we present a solution to the quantum master equation of two coupled optical waveguides with varying loss. The periodic modulation of the Markovian loss of one of them yields a passive $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Floquet system that, at resonance, shows a strong reduction of the required loss for the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry to be broken. We showcase this transition for a multi-photon state, and we show how to physically implement the modulated loss with reservoir engineering of a set of bath modes.

Οι πληθυσμοί αυτοί αναλύθηκαν χρησιμοποιώντας τρεις διαφορετικούς τύπους μοριακών γενετικών δεικτών: SSR, AFLA και SAMPL. Ανιχνεύθηκαν συνολικά 64 γονιδιακές θέσεις και διαπιστώθηκε η ύπαρξη πολύ χαμηλής γενετικής ποικιλότητας. Η εξαιρετικά μικρή γενετική ποικιλότητα είναι χαμηλότερη κατά τάξη μεγέθους σε σχέση με άλλα παραμεσογειακά κωνοφόρα και υποδηλώνει την μεγάλη ανάγκη για την προστασία των γενετικών πόρων του είδους.

description: We study theoretically the quantum transport properties of the Dirac fermions with spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) in graphene by using the method of Schwinger proper time together with decomposition over Landau level poles and Kubo formula. The analytical expressions for both longitudinal and Hall conductivities are derived explicitly. It is found that, from some numerical examples, when the Rashba SOI is taken into account the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillation peaks of the longitudinal conductivity versus the chemical potential are split, while the SdH oscillation of the longitudinal conductivity versus a external magnetic field exhibits a beating pattern. Furthermore, the Rashba SOI tends to suppress the quantum Hall effect in graphene.

Unification without low-energy supersymmetry

description: Without supersymmetry, the gauge couplings in the standard model with five Higgs doublets unify around 10^14 GeV. In this case, the trinified model, SU(3)_C x SU(3)_L x SU(3)_R x Z_3, with the minimal Higgs sector required for symmetry breaking, is the ideal grand-unified candidate. Small neutrino masses are generated via a radiative seesaw mechanism, without the need for intermediate scales, additional Higgs fields, or higher-dimensional operators. The proton lifetime is above the experimental limits, with the decay modes p -> \barνK^+ and p -> mu^+ K^0 potentially observable. The split-SUSY version of the model, with one light Higgs doublet, is equally attractive.

description: This report provides an overview of the desk-based research undertaken to identify relevant COVID- 19 studies and indicators to map the responses and impact across four levels: 1) national level across the EU27 MS and the UK; 2) regional and 3) local levels in 15 target sub-national research sites (Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Ireland, Israel, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, and the US), dependent on data availability1; 4) local levels pertinent to the case study sites. For the national level, we have gathered and reviewed relevant COVID-19 data sets including the ‘Oxford COVID-19 Government Response Tracker’ (OxCGRT), and baseline data identified by Eurostat and National Statistics Organisations. In addition, numerous COVID-19 risk assessment models and vulnerability indexes have been reviewed, including the INFORM Epidemic Risk Index and the ‘British Red Cross – Vulnerability Index’ (BRC-VI). Furthermore, supplementary survey data was collected and reviewed, for example, the ‘Measuring Worldwide COVID-19 Attitudes and Beliefs’ project. Each dataset has been reviewed based on a standard list of requirements for inclusion: geography (to date at Level 1: national level 27 MS and the UK), data access, data quality and indicators that accurately represent the objectives of the COVINFORM risk assessment model. In addition, data attributes were assessed to determine an appropriate database architecture including the data characteristics (i.e., volume, type, frequency of updates and availability).

description: We show that the internal stationary state of a black hole for massless Dirac fields can be represented by an entangled state of collapsing matter and infalling Hawking radiation. This implies that the Horowitz-Maldacena conjecture for the black hole final state originally proposed for the massless scalar fields is also applicable to fermionic fields as well. For an initially mixed state we find that the measure of mixedness is expected to decrease under evaporation.
