Overcounting of interior excitations: A resolution to the bags of gold paradox in AdS

description: In this work, we investigate how single-sided and eternal black holes in AdS can host an enormous number of semiclassical excitations in their interior, which is seemingly not reflected in the Bekenstein Hawking entropy. In addition to the paradox in the entropy, we argue that the treatment of such excitations using effective field theory also violates black holes' expected spectral properties. We propose that these mysteries are resolved because apparently orthogonal semiclassical bulk excitations have small inner products between them; and consequently, a vast number of semiclassical excitations can be constructed using the Hilbert space which describes black hole's interior. We show that there is no paradox in the dual CFT description and comment upon the initial bulk state, which leads to the paradox. Further, we demonstrate our proposed resolution in the context of small $N$ toy matrix models, where we model the construction of these large number of excitations. We conclude by discussing why this resolution is special to black holes.

Women's Parliament: The Israeli Experience
Creators: name: Hertzog, Esther
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: The Women's Parliament in Israel is a platform for politics from a feminist perspective, established in November 1989. The article discusses the aims, activities and achievements of this framework on the background of political marginalization, economic discrimination, religious oppression, and cultural objectification of women. The Parliament strives to raise awareness of this reality; to change public discourse and policies; to support women competing over leadership positions. The article also addresses the financial and organizational barriers faced by the Women Parliament's endeavors to bring about fundamental change in the gendered power structure. Consequently, it examines the idea of establishing Women's Parliaments around the world, as a means for global gender change.

description: In open quantum systems decoherence occurs through interaction of a quantum subsystem with its environment. The computation of expectation values requires a knowledge of the quantum dynamics of operators and sampling from initial states of the density matrix describing the subsystem and bath. We consider situations where the quantum evolution can be approximated by quantum-classical Liouville dynamics and examine the circumstances under which the evolution can be reduced to surface-hopping dynamics, where the evolution consists of trajectory segments evolving exclusively on single adiabatic surfaces, with probabilistic hops between these surfaces. The justification for the reduction depends on the validity of a Markovian approximation on a bath averaged memory kernel that accounts for quantum coherence in the system. We show that such a reduction is often possible when initial sampling is from either the quantum or classical bath initial distributions. If the average is taken only over the quantum dispersion that broadens the classical distribution, then such a reduction is not always possible.

description: Time crystalline structures are characterized by regularity that single-particle or many-body systems manifest in the time domain, closely resembling the spatial regularity of ordinary space crystals. Here we show that time and space crystalline structures can be combined together and even six-dimensional time-space lattices can be realized. As an example, we demonstrate that such time-space crystalline structures can reveal the six-dimensional quantum Hall effect quantified by the third Chern number.

description: We motivate and apply a bottom-up approach to string phenomenology, which aims to construct the Standard Model as a decoupled world-volume theory on a D3-brane. As a concrete proposal for such a construction, we consider a single probe D3-brane on a partial resolution of a del Pezzo 8 singularity. The resulting world-volume theory reproduces the field content and interactions of the MSSM, however with a somewhat extended Higgs sector. An attractive feature of our approach is that the gauge and Yukawa couplings are dual to non-dynamical closed string modes, and are therefore tunable parameters.

Thickness Design Curves for Portland Cement Concrete Pavements

Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: Past experience indicates that thickness designs using portland cement concrete best agree with criterion used in the Portland Cement Association's design method for 18-kip EAL of 2 to 3 million or less. For EALs greater than 2 to 3 million, past experience best agrees with criterion developed from the AASHO Road Test. Research herein indicates the two criterion become asymptotic to each other at approximately 2.5 million EAL. For a variation in thickness and elastic moduli in portland cement concrete, dense-graded aggregate, and sub grade elastic modulus, research indicates that a general conic equation (included herein) very closely duplicates the work at the bottom of the portland cement concrete caused by an 18-kip single axle load. The transition from a tensile strain to a work criterion is presented. Decreasing the thickness of dense-graded aggregate base caused a maximum increase of 0.15 inches in the thickness of portland cement concrete. Thus, the thicknesses of the portland cement concrete were averaged. The resulting thickness design curves are presented for a concrete elastic modulus of 4.2 million psi (Kentucky concrete strength).
Gender Identity and the Role of an Adult Educator in a Vocational Training Institute
Creators: name: Kokogiannis, Kostas
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: This study examined the degree of sensitization of an adult educator in a Vocational Training Institute with regard to the link between his (her) gender identity and his (her) pedagogic role. In effect, the degree of sensitization connotes the extent to which an educator experiences the sexism. Thirty eight adult educators (19 male and 19 female) have been interviewed for the purpose of the inquiry. The results showed that the female adult educators experienced and perceived higher the above link than the male educators. The origin of this differentiation has been largely based on the social construction of the gender identity and the segmentation of the labour market, and internalized in values and beliefs about appropriate masculine/feminine roles and expectations.

description: The Hamiltonian for the one-dimensional SSH chain is one of the simplest Hamiltonians that supports topological states. This work considers between one and three finite SSH chains with open boundary conditions that either share a lattice site (or cavity), which -- in turn -- is coupled to a two-level emitter, or are coupled to the same two-level emitter. We investigate the system properties as functions of the emitter-cavity coupling strength $g$ and the detuning between the emitter energy and the center of the band gap. It is found that the energy scale introduced by the edge states that are supported by the uncoupled finite SSH chains leads to a $g$-dependent hybridization of the emitter and edge states that is unique to finite-chain systems. A highly accurate analytical three-state model that captures the band gap physics of $k$-chain ($k \ge 1$) systems is developed. To quantify the robustness of the topological system characteristics, the inverse participation ratio for the cavity-shared and emitter-shared systems consisting of $k$ chains is analyzed as a function of the onsite disorder strength. The $g$-dependent hybridization of the emitter and uncoupled edge states can be probed dynamically.

Year: 2017

description: To understand the demographics of women sports medicine physicians and to determine whether they experienced gender disparity in the quality, quantity or types of clinical job opportunities. The authors surveyed women sports medicine physicians in the United States who were trained in one of the five primary care sports medicine specialties (pediatrics, emergency medicine, internal medicine, physical medicine and rehabilitation, and family medicine). The participants completed the survey on the Internet and their participation was solicited via email based on membership in the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine or board certification with the American Board of Family Medicine. A total of 300 surveys were distributed; 182 surveys were completed for a response rate of 61%. Our study revealed that women over 35 years of age covered fewer events and games as part of their sports medicine practice than women under age 35 (75% versus 89% respectively). Only 25% of women under 35 and 41% over age 35 felt that they had achieved their career goals. In addition, 60.5% of the women surveyed felt that they were compensated at a rate commensurate with their male peers and most women stated that the type and amount of clinical opportunities for women did not differ from men. Overall, women sports medicine physicians were satisfied with their careers and most work in larger communities. However, it will be important to follow the careers of women sports medicine physicians in order to better understand the nuances of their clinical practice environments that may reveal disparities in the field of primary care sports medicine.

Refs.: Greville 1863, p. 14, pl. I, fig. 5; Schmidt et al. 1874–1959, pl. 17, figs 8, 9; pl. 207, fig. 22; Williams 1988, pl. 27, figs 3, 4
Samples: GU74B-4
Dimensions: Diam. 100 µm
Diagnostics: Lines of large, paired oval pores running along lines from the margin to the central area.
Comments: Greville noted that the most similar species is C. diplostictus G.Norman ex Greville (Williams 1988, pl. 26, figs 5, 6), but that species is twice the diameter and has many interpolated short “striae” not present in our specimen. Despite some vague topography in the central space, compared to completely hyaline in Greville’s (1863) drawing, we are satisfied that we have C. robertsianus. The character of these pores (called punctae or granules by Peragallo & Peragallo 1897 –1908) seems not to have been studied in SEM.
Arrangement of pores distinguish C. robertsianus from species with scattered pores, such as Coronia daemeliana (Grunow) Ruck & Guiry, already transferred from Campylodiscus. Campylodiscus robertsianus is one of several taxa present in the Guam flora and lacking infundibula that most likely qualify for transfer to Coronia but were not studied by Ruck et al. (2016a, b, Ruck & Guiry 2016), i.e., Campylodiscus decorus var. pinnatus (the species was transferred but not the variety), C. humilis and C. brightwellii in our flora. Park et al. (2018) already transferred the first of these to Coronia decora var. pinnata (Peragallo) Lobban & JoonS.Park, and we are tempted to propose here the transfer of C. robertsianus. However, Ruck & Guiry (2016) gave no unambiguous morphological diagnosis for Coronia, relying instead on sequence data. Nomenclaturally, while a variety must go with its parent species when the species is transferred, transferring C. robertsianus would require a decision that this species accords with the new genus, which is uncertain in the absence of molecular data. This species was described from Queensland, Australia and has been reported from Samoa. Greville (1863) delighted in it as “one of the most exquisite species of this charming genus.” We have only this single specimen from Guam and a fragment from Yap, both in LM.

description: We consider an array of $N_e$ non-interacting qubits or emitters that are coupled to a one-dimensional cavity array with tunneling energy $J$ and non-linearity of strength $U$. The number of cavities is assumed to be larger than the number of qubits. Working in the two-excitation manifold, we focus on the bandgap regime where the energy of two excited qubits is off-resonant with the two-photon bound state band. A two-step adiabatic elimination of the photonic degrees of freedom gives rise to a one-dimensional spin Hamiltonian with effective interactions; specifically, the Hamiltonian features constrained single-qubit hopping and pair hopping interactions not only between nearest neighbors but also between next-to-nearest and next-to-next-to-nearest spins. For a regularly arranged qubit array, we identify parameter combinations for which the system supports novel droplet-like bound states whose characteristics depend critically on the pair hopping. The droplet-like states can be probed dynamically. The bound states identified in our work for off-resonance conditions are distinct from localized hybridized states that emerge for on-resonance conditions.

These string solutions display a broad phenomenology which we analyze using the method of N = 4 supergravity gaugings. We give examples in type II and heterotic compactifications of combined fluxes and condensates leading to vacua with naturally small supersymmetry breaking scale controlled by the condensate, cases where the supersymmetry breaking scale is specified by the fluxes even in the presence of a condensate and also examples where fluxes and condensates conspire to preserve supersymmetry.

description: Historically, there has been a scarcity of available mentors for African American women in psychology. The diminished presence of African American female psychologists in higher education limits the availability of same-race mentors for African American students, which decreases opportunities for African American students to pursue and succeed in this field, which in turn reduces the number of African Americans pursuing teaching, research, and clinical careers within psychology. We assert that same-race/same-gender mentorship is imperative in increasing the recruitment, retention, and training of African American women in psychology. In this literature review, we seek to address the unique issues related to the mentoring experience among African American women in psychology across three different stages of professional development (i.e., undergraduate, graduate, and faculty). Finally, we provide recommendations for mentors, mentees, and academic organizations in order to foster the growth and presence of African American women psychologists.

Ref. illus.: Sabir et al. 2018, figs 95–98
Samples: GU44U-2, GU44Z-15, GU44BV-3, GU52P-9, GU52Q-1a.
Description of wild material: Plastids relatively large, numerous (Figs 98, 99), valves 113–193 µm long, 7 µm wide, 40 striae in 10 µm (Figs 100, 101), ocellulimbus 8–9 pores tall (Fig. 102), usually two spines (Fig. 102), rimoportula symmetrical, as for the genus (Fig. 103).
Comments: Although the record of this species was established in 2018, we wish to add these further observations. Stricosus harrisonii is the only linear species of Stricosus found so far in Guam. It was described as 88–152 µm long, relatively broad (5–9 µm), with a narrow, linear sternum, 38–41 biseriate striae in 10 µm, and with a single spine over the ocellulimbus (Sabir et al. 2018). In a variety of wild samples, however, there were two spines, as shown here. Also described from the same material was S. cardinalii, (Sabir et al. 2018, figs 99–103), which usually has two spines over the ocellulimbus. While S. harrisonii is essentially linear, the shape and size of S. cardinalii is very much like Hyalosynedra laevigata (see above). In SEM, S. cardinalii is distinguished by the symmetrical rimoportulae and deep ocellulimbi characteristic of Stricosus. Stricosus harrisonii and S. cardinallii from Guam are distinct from similar large species in Florida/Caribbean (S. navarroensis E.C.Theriot & Ashworth, S. blumbergii E.C.Theriot & Ashworth) and the Red Sea (S. alfageehii Sabir & E.C.Theriot, S. madanii Sabir & E.C.Theriot) (Sabir et al. 2018), possibly suggesting regional endemicity. Belando et al. (2018) identified the sequence labeled GU44AI as being H. laevigata but it is actually Stricosus harrisonii, which was published concurrently.

description: We present ${\bf decalf}$, a ${\bf d}$irected, ${\bf e}$ffectful ${\bf c}$ost-${\bf a}$ware ${\bf l}$ogical ${\bf f}$ramework for studying quantitative aspects of functional programs with effects. Like ${\bf calf}$, the language is based on a formal phase distinction between the extension and the intension of a program, its pure behavior as distinct from its cost measured by an effectful step-counting primitive. The type theory ensures that the behavior is unaffected by the cost accounting. Unlike ${\bf calf}$, the present language takes account of effects, such as probabilistic choice and mutable state; this extension requires a reformulation of ${\bf calf}$'s approach to cost accounting: rather than rely on a "separable" notion of cost, here a cost bound is simply another program. To make this formal, we equip every type with an intrinsic preorder, relaxing the precise cost accounting intrinsic to a program to a looser but nevertheless informative estimate. For example, the cost bound of a probabilistic program is itself a probabilistic program that specifies the distribution of costs. This approach serves as a streamlined alternative to the standard method of isolating a recurrence that bounds the cost in a manner that readily extends to higher-order, effectful programs.
 The development proceeds by first introducing the ${\bf decalf}$ type system, which is based on an intrinsic ordering among terms that restricts in the extensional phase to extensional equality, but in the intensional phase reflects an approximation of the cost of a program of interest. This formulation is then applied to a number of illustrative examples, including pure and effectful sorting algorithms, simple probabilistic programs, and higher-order functions. Finally, we justify ${\bf decalf}$ via a model in the topos of augmented simplicial sets.

description: In electrochemical systems, an understanding of the underlying transport processes is required to aid in their better design. This includes knowledge of possible near-electrode convective mixing that can enhance measured currents. Here, for a binary acidic electrolyte in contact with a platinum electrode, we provide evidence of electroconvective instability during electrocatalytic proton reduction. The current-voltage characteristics indicate that electroconvection, visualized with a fluorescent dye, drives current densities larger than the diffusion transport limit. The onset and transition times of the instability do not follow the expected inverse-square dependence on the current density, but, above a bulk-reaction-limited current density are delayed by the water dissociation reaction. The dominant size of the electroconvective patterns is also measured and found to vary as the diffusion length scale, confirming previous predictions on the size of electroconvective vortices.

A pseudonodulus is present on the flatter side.
Comments: Two valves observed in one sample. The ventral curvatures of A. cuneiformis vary from straight to sinuous and Hustedt (1927 – 1931) combined several older Eudotia species as varieties. Although Round et al. (1990) say that the valves are cuneiform, it seems to us that Wallich’s (1860) epithet refers to the shape of the frustule (described by Round et al. 1990 as “shaped like orange segments”), rather than to the shape of the valve. The genus Hemidiscus was subsumed into Actinocyclus by Gómez et al. (2017); they did not discuss any varieties of H. cuneiformis but their images, like ours, conform to var. ventricosa (Castracane) Hustedt. We have therefore omitted any varietal designation.

description: This research aimed at exploring the perceptions of women leaders on their performance on three key areas of leadership - on ten leadership qualities, type of power they use and their leadership performance - as perceived and assessed by the leaders themselves. A total of 45 women leaders 15 each from public, NGO and private sectors participated in the study. Two questionnaires were distributed each consisting of two parts. The first part solicited information, among others, about a participant's organization, position in and number of years in the organization as well as years in current position, educational level and whether or not she has participated in leadership training programs. The second part of the questionnaire contained three sets of questions on the three key leadership areas. The findings of the study show that with minor differences among them, private sector leaders seem to possess the ten leadership qualities better than and followed by NGO and public sector leaders. Both in terms of individual and group performance, NGO leaders seem to use power of the person to the highest degree followed by private sector leaders and last come public sector leaders. NGO leader seem to be more able to work with and through other people (Stateswomanship) followed by both private and public sector leaders. The overall average performance rating for all sectors in the three performance types puts NGO women leaders at the top followed by private and public sector leaders. The overall findings indicate that the relatively higher performance of women sectoral leaders in the study could be attributed to their corresponding high levels of educational qualification, over all work experience and experience in leadership positions, and training on leadership.

description: Recognizing interactive action plays an important role in human-robot interaction and collaboration. Previous methods use late fusion and co-attention mechanism to capture interactive relations, which have limited learning capability or inefficiency to adapt to more interacting entities. With assumption that priors of each entity are already known, they also lack evaluations on a more general setting addressing the diversity of subjects. To address these problems, we propose an Interactive Spatiotemporal Token Attention Network (ISTA-Net), which simultaneously model spatial, temporal, and interactive relations. Specifically, our network contains a tokenizer to partition Interactive Spatiotemporal Tokens (ISTs), which is a unified way to represent motions of multiple diverse entities. By extending the entity dimension, ISTs provide better interactive representations. To jointly learn along three dimensions in ISTs, multi-head self-attention blocks integrated with 3D convolutions are designed to capture inter-token correlations. When modeling correlations, a strict entity ordering is usually irrelevant for recognizing interactive actions. To this end, Entity Rearrangement is proposed to eliminate the orderliness in ISTs for interchangeable entities. Extensive experiments on four datasets verify the effectiveness of ISTA-Net by outperforming state-of-the-art methods. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/Necolizer/ISTA-Net

Accretion by the Secondary in Eta Carinae During the Spectroscopic Event: I. Flow Parameters
Creators: name: Soker, Noam
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We examine the influence of the gravity of the companion (the secondary) to the massive primary star Eta Carinae on the winds blown by the primary and the secondary. The two winds collide with each other after passing through two respective shock waves, and escape the system while strongly emitting in the X-ray band. While during most of the 5.5 years orbital period, the companion's gravity has a negligible effect on the winds, we find that near periastron, the companion's gravity may significantly influence the flow and the companion might accrete from the primary's wind under certain circumstances. Near periastron passage, the collision region of the two winds may collapse onto the secondary star, a process that could substantially reduce the X-ray luminosity. We suggest that such an accretion process produces the long, almost flat, X-ray minimum in Eta Carinae.

Stealth decaying spin-1 dark matter

description: We consider models of decaying spin-1 dark matter whose dominant coupling to the standard model sector is through a dark-Higgs Yukawa portal connecting a TeV-scale vector-like lepton to the standard model (right-handed) electron. Below the electron-positron threshold, dark matter has very slow, loop-suppressed decays to photons and (electron) neutrinos, and is stable on cosmological time-scale for sufficiently small gauge coupling values. Its relic abundance is set by in-equilibrium dark lepton decays, through the freeze-in mechanism. We show that this model accommodates the observed dark matter abundance for natural values of its parameters and a dark matter mass in the ~5keV to 1MeV range, while evading constraints from direct detection, indirect detection, stellar cooling and cosmology. We also consider the possibility of a nonzero gauge kinetic mixing with the standard model hypercharge field, which is found to yield a mild impact on the model's phenomenology.

Ref. illus.: Levkov 2009, p. 265, pl. 114, figs 1–5, pl. 252, figs 1–5 (SEM).
Samples: GU55B-5
Dimensions: Length 30 µm, width 12 µm, stria density 8 in 10 µm (dorsal) and 13 in 10 µm (ventral)
Diagnostics: More strongly and coarsely striated on the dorsal surface, dorsal striae often biseriate and bifurcating towards the sternum, ventral striae uniseriate.
Comment: Our specimens (seen also in Yap and Palau) are much shorter than the 68–129 µm given by Levkov (2009). A Palauan specimen (Fig. 4) seen in SEM shows that the striae are mostly biseriate, the bifurcations resulting from the two rows diverging; these images conform to the specimens shown by Levkov in SEM.

description: Traversable wormholes and regular black holes usually represent completely different scenarios. But in the black bounce spacetime they can be described by a same line element, which is very attractive. Furthermore, the black hole photos taken by EHT show that black holes have spin, so spin is an indispensable intrinsic property of black holes in the actual universe. In this work, we derive a rotating black hole mimicker surrounded by the string cloud (SC), which can be interpolated to represent regular black hole spacetime and traversable wormhole spacetime. We investigate the effect of the spin $a$ and SC parameter $L$ on the observables (shadow radius $R_s$ and distortion $δ_s$) and energy emission rate of the black hole mimicker surrounded by the SC. We find that shadow for this spacetime is very sensitive to the $L$, i.e., the SC parameter can significantly increase the boundary of the shadow.
Cross-Generational Perspectives on Work-Life Balance and its Impact on Women's Opportunities for Leadership in the Workplace

description: This qualitative study focuses on how women of three different generations, Generation Y, Generation X and Baby Boomers, view the concept of work-life balance and what relationship these views have to their attainment of workplace leadership positions. Work-life balance was defined differently across the three generations, but the generational lines faded as most women reported struggling with finding a balance. Some women conveyed choosing not to pursue high-level leadership positions as the personal cost was too high. Those who had obtained high-level leadership positions shared what types of support were most effective in helping them juggle personal and professional obligations. A general theory became apparent; the answer for women may not be balancing, but rather integrating work-life commitments.

description: Using the Florida Multi-object Imaging Near-IR grism Observational Spectrometer (FLAMINGOS), we have conducted the FLAMINGOS Extragalactic Survey (FLAMEX), a deep imaging survey covering 7.1 square degrees within the 18.6 sq. deg NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS) regions. FLAMEX is the first deep, wide-area near-infrared survey to image in both the J and Ks filters, and is larger than any previous NIR surveys of comparable depth. The intent of FLAMEX is to facilitate the study of galaxy and galaxy cluster evolution at 11 galaxy clusters detected using the joint FLAMEX, NDWFS, and Spitzer IRAC Shallow Survey data sets.
