description: In the pursuit of capacity-oriented urban sustainable development (SD), this study aims to enhance the multimodal transport network by making it more accessible, efficient, and environmentally friendly. A sustainable framework combining policy mixes and second-best constraints is developed as a multimodal transportation network capacity (TNC) model with the bi-level programming (BLP) formulation. The upper-level model is to maximise the total origin-destination (OD) demand with considering second-best constraints. The lower-level model is a combined mode split and traffic assignment with elastic demand (CMSTA-ED) model which considers policy mixes. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the hybrid PSO–GWO algorithm, the synergy of the method for selecting and mixing policy instruments based on the proposed assessment system, and a methodology to establish a policy mix. The findings of this research offer practical guidance for formulating well-informed and no-redundant policy mixes, contributing to the improvement of sustainable multimodal transportation network performance.

description: Color-octet scalars, if present at the TeV scale, will be produced in abundance at the LHC. We discuss in some detail the phenomenology of scalars in the (8,2)_{1/2} representation, recently identified by Manohar and Wise as an addition to the standard-model Higgs sector consistent with the principle of minimal flavor violation. Couplings of this multiplet to the Higgs lift the mass degeneracy among its states, possibly allowing for two-body decays of a heavier colored scalar to a lighter one and a gauge boson. We perform a renormalization group analysis of these couplings and find that limits from Tevatron searches leave little room for these decays. This fact, and the assumption of minimal flavor violation, lead us to study the case where the octets decay to the heaviest kinematically accessible fermion pairs. Focusing on pair-production events leading to (t t-bar t t-bar), (b b-bar b b-bar), and (b b-bar t t-bar) final states, we find that discovery at the LHC should be possible up to masses exceeding 1 TeV.

description: ESSnuSB is a unique future proposed long-baseline experiment in Sweden to study neutrino oscillation by probing the second oscillation maximum. In this proceeding, we update the flux and efficiencies and re-calculate the sensitivity of ESSnuSB in the standard three flavour scenario. We find that it has excellent sensitivity to the Dirac CP phase $δ_{\rm CP}$, moderate sensitivity to the mass hierarchy of the neutrinos and limited sensitivity to measure the octant of the atmospheric mixing angle $θ_{23}$. We also find that it has a very good sensitivity to constrain the atmospheric mass squared difference $|Δm^2_{31}|$.

Beyond Business as Usual: A 21st Century Culture of Manufacturing in Australia

Year: 2019

description: This report summarizes the findings of the ARC discovery project, Reconfiguring the enterprise: shifting manufacturing culture in Australia (DP # DP160101674). Research conducted between 2016 and 2019 collected data from 10 manufacturing enterprises, across diverse sectors, scales and organisational forms through in-depth interviews, site visits and workshops. The project’s main finding is that there is a culture of manufacturing that is beyond business as usual in Australia. This report counters ill-founded fears that manufacturing in Australia is dead by presenting convincing evidence of dynamic companies that are committed to just and sustainable manufacturing practices. It demonstrates how there is a viable future for manufacturing in Australia in the 21st century that is being shaped by a culture that is beyond business as usual. Through the case examples we uncovered how this new manufacturing culture: a) maintains firm viability and thereby safeguards manufacturing in Australia; b) provides decent jobs in an inclusive society and thereby builds a more just manufacturing sector; and c) produces with a smaller ecological footprint and thereby builds a more environmentally sustainable manufacturing sector. These economic, social and ecological goods are realised in these firms through practical commitments expressed in the daily enterprise operations and over time. The findings are significant for Australia. Manufacturing supports 1.27 million jobs in Australia. It plays a major role in social inclusion, nurturing the productive capacity of people from many different backgrounds and experiences. It is a point of concentration for innovation and investment in R&D. However, the current business as usual model is no longer viable. Growth without regard for a social licence to produce is no longer acceptable. Nor is growth with disregard for the environmental impacts of production and consumption. The new culture of manufacturing rewrites the social licence for enterprises. It is building viable firms with the capacity to withstand threats that might undermine the sector. At the same time, their ongoing commitments and practices are helping Australia address the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—SDG 8 Decent Work and Economic Growth, SDG 9 Industry Innovation and Infrastructure, and SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production.

description: The results of speckle interferometric observations of 104 binary and 6 triple stars performed at the BTA 6 m telescope in 2004 October are presented. Nearby low-mass stars are mostly observed for the program, among which 59 there are new binaries recently discovered by the Hipparcos astrometric satellite. Concurrently with the diffraction-limited position measurements we obtained 154 brightness ratio measurements of binary and multiple star components in different bands of the visible spectrum. New, first-resolved binaries are the symbiotic star CH Cyg with a weak companion at 0.043'' separation and the pair of red dwarfs, GJ 913 = HIP 118212. In addition, we derived the orbital parameters for two interferometric systems: the CN-giant pair HD 210211 = HIP 109281 (P=10.7 yr) and the G2V-K2V binary GJ 9830 = HIP 116259 (P=15.7 yr).

description: We present a catalog of hard X-ray sources detected in the first 105 months of observations with the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) coded mask imager on board the Swift observatory. The 105 month Swift-BAT survey is a uniform hard X-ray all-sky survey with a sensitivity of $8.40\times 10^{-12}\ {\rm erg\ s^{-1}\ cm^{-2}}$ over 90% of the sky and $7.24\times 10^{-12}\ {\rm erg\ s^{-1}\ cm^{-2}}$ over 50% of the sky in the 14-195 keV band. The Swift-BAT 105 month catalog provides 1632 (422 new detections) hard X-ray sources in the 14-195 keV band above the 4.8σ significance level. Adding to the previously known hard X-ray sources, 34% (144/422) of the new detections are identified as Seyfert AGN in nearby galaxies (z<0.2). The majority of the remaining identified sources are X-ray binaries (7%, 31) and blazars/BL Lac objects (10%, 43). As part of this new edition of the Swift-BAT catalog, we release eight-channel spectra and monthly sampled light curves for each object in the online journal and at the Swift-BAT 105 month Web site.

description: We have analyzed the total HI contents of 72 Hickson compact groups of galaxies (HCGs) and the detailed spatial distributions and kinematics of HI within a subset of 16 groups using the high angular resolution observations obtained with the VLA in order to investigate a possible evolutionary scenario for these densest systems in the present day galaxy hierarchy. For the more homogeneous subsample of 48 groups, we found a mean HI deficiency of , which corresponds to 40% of the expected HI for the optical luminosities and morphological types of the member galaxies. The individual galaxies show larger degrees of deficiency than the groups globally, (24% of the expected HI), due in most cases to efficient gas stripping from individual galaxies into the group environment visible in the VLA maps. The degree of deficiency is found to be similar to the central galaxies of Virgo and Coma cluster, and Coma I group, in spite of the significantly different characteristics (number of galaxies, velocity dispersion) of these environments. It does not seem plausible that a significant amount of extended HI has been missed by the observations. Hence phase transformation of the atomic gas should explain the HI deficiency. The groups richer in early type galaxies or more compact with larger velocity dispersions show a weak tendency to be more HI deficient. The detection rate of HCGs at X-ray wavelengths is larger for HI deficient groups, although the hot gas distribution and hence its origin is only known for a few cases. In the evolutionary scenario we propose, the amount of detected HI would decrease further with evolution, by continuous tidal stripping and/or heating. The H2 content also tends to be lower than expected for the galaxies in HI deficient groups, this may suggest that the HI stripping by frequent tidal interaction breaks the balance between the disruption of molecular clouds by star formation and the replenishment from the ambient HI.

description: The next generation of cosmic microwave background, gravitational wave, and large scale structure, experiments will provide an unprecedented opportunity to probe the primordial power spectrum on small scales. An exciting possibility for what lurks on small scales is a sharp rise in the primordial power spectrum: This can lead to the formation of primordial black holes, providing a dark matter candidate or the black holes observed by the LIGO-Virgo collaboration. In this work we develop a mechanism for the amplification of the small-scale primordial power spectrum, in the context of single-field inflation with a step-like feature in the inflaton potential. Specifically, we consider both the upward and the downward step in the potential. We also discuss the possibility of the strong coupling between perturbations because the rapid changes of the potential derivatives with the time-dependent field value, caused by the step-like feature, could make the coupling stronger. As a result, we find that the perturbations can remain weakly coupled yet sufficiently enhanced if the step realizes the rapid changes of the potential derivatives in some fraction of an e-fold, $\mathcal O(\mathcal P_{\mathcal R}^{1/2}) \lesssim ΔN < 1$, where $\mathcal P_\mathcal R$ is the power spectrum of the curvature perturbation at that time. We also discuss the PBH formation rate from the inflaton trapping at the local minimum, which can occur in the potential with an upward step.

description: The two sources AGC 226178 and NGVS 3543, an extremely faint, clumpy, blue stellar system and a low surface brightness dwarf spheroidal, are adjacent systems in the direction of the Virgo cluster. Both have been studied in detail previously, with it being suggested that they are unrelated normal dwarf galaxies or that NGVS 3543 recently lost its gas through ram pressure stripping, and that AGC 226178 formed from this stripped gas. However, with HST ACS imaging we demonstrate that the stellar population of NGVS 3543 is inconsistent with being at the distance of the Virgo cluster, and that it is likely a foreground object at approximately 10 Mpc. Whereas the stellar population of AGC 226178 is consistent with it being a very young (10-100 Myr) object in the Virgo cluster. Through a re-analysis of the original ALFALFA HI detection we show that AGC 226178 likely formed from gas stripped from the nearby dwarf galaxy VCC 2034, a hypothesis strengthened by the high metallicity measured with MUSE VLT observations. However, it is unclear whether ram pressure or a tidal interaction is responsible for stripping the gas. AGC 226178 is one of at least five similar objects now known towards Virgo. These objects are all young and unlikely to remain visible for over ~500 Myr, suggesting that they are continually produced in the cluster.

description: We present a non-iterative solver based on the Schur complement method for sparse linear systems of special form which appear in Quantum Monte-Carlo (QMC) simulations of strongly interacting fermions on the lattice. While the number of floating-point operations for this solver scales as the cube of the number of lattice sites, for practically relevant lattice sizes it is still significantly faster than iterative solvers such as the Conjugate Gradient method in the regime of strong inter-fermion interactions, for example, in the vicinity of quantum phase transitions. The speed-up is even more dramatic for the solution of multiple linear systems with different right-hand sides. We present benchmark results for QMC simulations of the tight-binding models on the hexagonal graphene lattice with on-site (Hubbard) and non-local (Coulomb) interactions, and demonstrate the potential for further speed-up using GPU.

description: Recently, interest in crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthesis has risen and new, physiologically based CAM models have emerged. These models show promise, yet unlike the more widely used physiological models of C3 and C4 photosynthesis, their complexity has thus far inhibited their adoption in the general community. Indeed, most efforts to assess the potential of CAM still rely on empirically based environmental productivity indices, which makes uniform comparisons between CAM and non-CAM species difficult. In order to represent C3, C4, and CAM photosynthesis in a consistent, physiologically based manner, we introduce the Photo3 model. This work builds on a common photosynthetic and hydraulic core and adds additional components to depict the circadian rhythm of CAM photosynthesis and the carbon-concentrating mechanism of C4 photosynthesis. This allows consistent comparisons of the three photosynthetic types for the first time. It also allows the representation of intermediate C3-CAM behavior through the adjustment of a single model parameter. Model simulations of *Opuntia ficus-indica* (CAM), *Sorghum bicolor* (C4), and *Triticum aestivum* (C3) capture the diurnal behavior of each species as well as the cumulative effects of long-term water limitation. The results show potential for use in understanding CAM productivity, ecology, and climate feedbacks and in evaluating the tradeoffs between C3, C4, and CAM photosynthesis.

description: This paper investigates the clustering properties of a complete sample of 1041 24um-selected sources brighter than F[24um]=400 uJy in the overlapping region between the SWIRE and UKIDSS UDS surveys. We have concentrated on the two (photometric) interval ranges z=[0.6-1.2] (low-z sample) and z>1.6 (high-z sample) as it is in these regions were we expect the mid-IR population to be dominated by intense dust-enshrouded activity such as star formation and black hole accretion. Investigations of the angular correlation function produce a correlation length are r0~15.9 Mpc for the high-z sample and r0~8.5 Mpc for the low-z one. Comparisons with physical models reveal that the high-z sources are exclusively associated with very massive (M>~10^{13} M_sun)haloes, comparable to those which locally host groups-to-clusters of galaxies, and are very common within such (rare) structures. Conversely, lower-z galaxies are found to reside in smaller halos (M_min~10^{12} M_sun) and to be very rare in such systems. While recent studies have determined a strong evolution of the 24um luminosity function between z~2 and z~0, they cannot provide information on the physical nature of such an evolution. Our clustering results instead indicate that this is due to the presence of different populations of objects inhabiting different structures, as active systems at z

description: We propose a new framework to generate the Standard Model (SM) quark flavor hierarchies in the context of two Higgs doublet models (2HDM). The `flavorful' 2HDM couples the SM-like Higgs doublet exclusively to the third quark generation, while the first two generations couple exclusively to an additional source of electroweak symmetry breaking, potentially generating striking collider signatures. We synthesize the flavorful 2HDM with the `flavor-locking' mechanism, that dynamically generates large quark mass hierarchies through a flavor-blind portal to distinct flavon and hierarchon sectors: Dynamical alignment of the flavons allows a unique hierarchon to control the respective quark masses. We further develop the theoretical construction of this mechanism, and show that in the context of a flavorful 2HDM-type setup, it can automatically achieve realistic flavor structures: The CKM matrix is automatically hierarchical with $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ generically of the observed size. Exotic contributions to meson oscillation observables may also be generated, that may accommodate current data mildly better than the SM itself.

Forming Galaxies with MOND

description: Beginning with a simple model for the growth of structure, I consider the dissipationless evolution of a MOND-dominated region in an expanding Universe by means of a spherically symmetric N-body code. I demonstrate that the final virialized objects resemble elliptical galaxies with well-defined relationships between the mass, radius, and velocity dispersion. These calculations suggest that, in the context of MOND, massive elliptical galaxies may be formed early (z > 10) as a result of monolithic dissipationless collapse. Then I reconsider the classic argument that a galaxy of stars results from cooling and fragmentation of a gas cloud on a time scale shorter than that of dynamical collapse. Qualitatively, the results are similar to that of the traditional picture; moreover, the existence, in MOND, of a density-temperature relation for virialized, near isothermal objects as well as a mass-temperature relation implies that there is a definite limit to the mass of a gas cloud where this condition can be met-- an upper limit corresponding to that of presently observed massive galaxies.

description: It is known that the couple formed by the two dimensional Brownian motion and its Lévy area leads to the heat kernel on the Heisenberg group, which is one of the simplest sub-Riemannian space. The associated diffusion operator is hypoelliptic but not elliptic, which makes difficult the derivation of functional inequalities for the heat kernel. However, Driver and Melcher and more recently H.-Q. Li have obtained useful gradient bounds for the heat kernel on the Heisenberg group. We provide in this paper simple proofs of these bounds, and explore their consequences in terms of functional inequalities, including Cheeger and Bobkov type isoperimetric inequalities for the heat kernel.

description: ABSTRACT

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a life-threatening complication during childbirth, defined as the loss of 500 mL or more of blood following a normal vaginal delivery or 1000 mL or more after a cesarean section. It remains the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide, particularly in low-resource settings like Liberia, where healthcare systems often struggle to provide timely interventions. This study investigates the prevalence, causes, and outcomes of PPH among women delivering at C.B. Dunbar Hospital, Bong County, Liberia.

The research utilized a retrospective chart review design, analyzing delivery records from January to December 2021. The study aimed to identify the incidence of PPH, the most affected age groups, and the key contributing factors. Data analysis revealed that PPH occurred in 3% of all deliveries at the hospital, with younger women, particularly those aged 14-19 years, showing the highest incidence of the complication. First-time mothers were also disproportionately affected, highlighting the importance of focused prenatal and delivery care for these groups. The leading cause of PPH in this study was uterine atony, accounting for 82% of the cases, followed by uterine and cervical trauma (11%) and retained placenta (7%).

Despite the significant challenges posed by PPH, maternal outcomes were largely positive, with a survival rate of 98%. However, one maternal death was recorded, emphasizing the need for continued improvement in emergency obstetric care. Neonatal outcomes were similarly favorable, with 93% of babies born to mothers with PPH surviving. Nonetheless, a small percentage (7%) of neonates experienced stillbirth or intrauterine fetal demise, underscoring the potential impact of maternal health on neonatal outcomes.

This research underscores the urgent need for targeted interventions to improve the management of PPH in rural Liberia, including enhanced training for healthcare providers, better access to uterotonic medications, and increased awareness among pregnant women about the risks of PPH.

description: In this paper we propose a method to achieve relative positioning and tracking of a target by a quadcopter using Ultra-wideband (UWB) ranging sensors, which are strategically installed to help retrieve both relative position and bearing between the quadcopter and target. To achieve robust localization for autonomous flight even with uncertainty in the speed of the target, two main features are developed. First, an estimator based on Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is developed to fuse UWB ranging measurements with data from onboard sensors including inertial measurement unit (IMU), altimeters and optical flow. Second, to properly handle the coupling of the target's orientation with the range measurements, UWB based communication capability is utilized to transfer the target's orientation to the quadcopter. Experiment results demonstrate the ability of the quadcopter to control its position relative to the target autonomously in both cases when the target is static and moving.

description: We consider the possible effects of gravitational lensing by globular clusters on gravitational waves from asymmetric neutron stars in our galaxy. In the lensing of gravitational waves, the long wavelength, compared with the usual case of optical lensing, can lead to the geometrical optics approximation being invalid, in which case a wave optical solution is necessary. In general, wave optical solutions can only be obtained numerically. We describe a computational method that is particularly well suited to numerical wave optics. This method enables us to compare the properties of several lens models for globular clusters without ever calling upon the geometrical optics approximation, though that approximation would sometimes have been valid. Finally, we estimate the probability that lensing by a globular cluster will significantly affect the detection, by ground-based laser interferometer detectors such as LIGO, of gravitational waves from an asymmetric neutron star in our galaxy, finding that the probability is insignificantly small.

description: We present a study of the globular cluster (GC) systems of nearby elliptical and S0 galaxies at a variety of wavelengths from the X-ray to the infrared. Our analysis shows that roughly half of the low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), that are the luminous tracers of accreting neutron star or black hole systems, are in clusters. There is a surprisingly strong correlation between the LMXB frequency and the metallicity of the GCs, with metal-rich GCs hosting three times as many LMXBs as metal-poor ones, and no convincing evidence of a correlation with GC age so far. In some of the galaxies the LMXB formation rate varies with GC color even within the red peak of the typical bimodal cluster color distribution, providing some of the strongest evidence to date that there are metallicity variations within the metal-rich GC peak as is expected in a hierarchical galaxy formation scenario. We also note that any analysis of subtler variations in GC color distributions must carefully account for both statistical and systematic errors. We caution that some published GC correlations, such as the apparent 'blue-tilt' or mass-metallicity effect might not have a physical origin and may be caused by systematic observational biases.

title: Transeuropa: Agency Beyond Borders In Alter-European Activist Networks

description: European nation-states are facing a deep democratic crisis. In the age of planetary challenges related to climate change, migration and rampant inequalities perpetuated by neoliberal globalization, many people experience a sense of powerlessness over the decisions that affect their everyday lives. Brexiteers’ cry to “take back control” is but one of the most illustrative examples of this wider lack of agency. In the midst of this contemporary political crisis, this thesis offers an ethnographic exploration of emerging forms of agency beyond borders in alter-European activist networks. Conducted in the years between the UK’s vote to leave the EU in June 2016 and the European Parliament elections in May 2019, this engaged ethnographic project follows alter-European activists taking to the streets, roads and parliaments all across the European continent. Drawing on data gathered via participant observation, interviews and alternative media texts, the thesis takes the reader on a journey to a number of protests, activist meetings and political events in different parts of Europe, including to a townhall in the South of France, a feminist workshop in Madrid and a caravan trip across the former Iron Curtain. Here, in the shadows of mainstream media headlines and Brussels institutions, is a movement whose acts transgress not only geographical but also thematic and institutional boundaries. Paying particular attention to alter-European activists’ collective identity formation, the movement’s nomadic (media)practices and its relationship with municipal movement parties, the thesis argues that in order to understand transnational social movements today, we must centre not the notion of the network, but the concept of agency. To this end, this study develops the idea of transversal agency, which works across struggles, scales and sites. The thesis ultimately suggests that contemporary movements’ capacity to address global challenges depends on the ability to translate between different registers of action.
Evidence from Disrupted Halo Dwarfs that $r$-process Enrichment via Neutron Star Mergers is Delayed by $\gtrsim500$ Myrs

description: The astrophysical origins of $r$-process elements remain elusive. Neutron star mergers (NSMs) and special classes of core-collapse supernovae (rCCSNe) are leading candidates. Due to these channels' distinct characteristic timescales (rCCSNe: prompt, NSMs: delayed), measuring $r$-process enrichment in galaxies of similar mass, but differing star-formation durations might prove informative. Two recently discovered disrupted dwarfs in the Milky Way's stellar halo, Kraken and \textit{Gaia}-Sausage Enceladus (GSE), afford precisely this opportunity: both have $M_{\star}\approx10^{8}M_{\rm{\odot}}$, but differing star-formation durations of ${\approx}2$ Gyrs and ${\approx}3.6$ Gyrs. Here we present $R\approx50,000$ Magellan/MIKE spectroscopy for 31 stars from these systems, detecting the $r$-process element Eu in all stars. Stars from both systems have similar [Mg/H]$\approx-1$, but Kraken has a median [Eu/Mg]$\approx-0.1$ while GSE has an elevated [Eu/Mg]$\approx0.2$. With simple models we argue NSM enrichment must be delayed by $500-1000$ Myrs to produce this difference. rCCSNe must also contribute, especially at early epochs, otherwise stars formed during the delay period would be Eu-free. In this picture, rCCSNe account for $\approx50\%$ of the Eu in Kraken, $\approx25\%$ in GSE, and $\approx15\%$ in dwarfs with extended star-formation durations like Sagittarius. The inferred delay time for NSM enrichment is $10-100\times$ longer than merger delay times from stellar population synthesis -- this is not necessarily surprising because the enrichment delay includes time taken for NSM ejecta to be incorporated into subsequent generations of stars. For example, this may be due to natal kicks that result in $r$-enriched material deposited far from star-forming gas, which then takes $\approx10^{8}-10^{9}$ years to cool in these galaxies.

description: This project is based on cross-sectional studies of Merida and vicinity residents, Yucatán, Mexico. In 1994, 364 men and 320 women aged 20-98 years were measured. Most of them were purely Mayas. The analysis included 3 phenomena: secular trend in height, sexual dimorphism index in height which assess living conditions, and age at menarche in women. From the literature, it is known about the living conditions of Maya men and women at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Haciendas producing henequen were based on the work of men and despite very bad living conditions, the owners took care of their health. Women were treated very badly. After the Mexican revolution, the whole industry related to production of henequen collapsed. Mayan living conditions improved a little, but at the end of the 20th century the biological status of men did not change, but improved somewhat in women. This is the reason why Maya women gain greater height, despite the lack of acceleration in maturation.
