description: ICARUS T600 will be operated as far detector of the Short Baseline Neutrino program at Fermilab (USA), which foresees three liquid argon time projection chambers along the Booster Neutrino Beam line to search for a LSND-like sterile neutrino signal. The detector employs 360 photomultiplier tubes, Hamamatsu model R5912-MOD, suitable for cryogenic applications. A total of 400 PMTs were procured from Hamamatsu and tested at room temperature to evaluate the performance of the devices and their compliance to detect the liquid argon scintillation light in the T600 detector. Furthermore 60 units were also characterized at cryogenic temperature, in liquid argon bath, to evaluate any parameter variation which could affect the scintillation light detection. All the tested PMTs were found to comply with the requirements of ICARUS T600 and a subset of 360 specimens was selected for the final installation in the detector.

description: In the early days of 2017 September, an exceptionally energetic solar active region AR12673 aroused great interest in the solar physics community. It produced four X class flares, more than 20 CMEs and an intense geomagnetic storm, for which the peak value of the Dst index reached up to -142nT at 2017 September 8 02:00 UT. In this work, we check the interplanetary and solar source of this intense geomagnetic storm. We find that this geomagnetic storm was mainly caused by a shock-ICME complex structure, which was formed by a shock driven by the 2017 September 6 CME propagating into a previous ICME which was the interplanetary counterpart of the 2017 September 4 CME. To better understand the role of this structure, we conduct the quantitative analysis about the enhancement of ICME's geoeffectiveness induced by the shock compression. The analysis shows that the shock compression enhanced the intensity of this geomagnetic storm by a factor of two. Without shock compression, there would be only a moderate geomagnetic storm with a peak Dst value of -79 nT. In addition, the analysis of the proton flux signature inside the shock-ICME complex structure shows that this structure also enhanced the solar energetic particles (SEPs) intensity by a factor of ~ 5. These findings illustrate that the shock-ICME complex structure is a very important factor in solar physics study and space weather forecast.

description: We report on a nanoscale quantum-sensing protocol which tracks a free precession of a single nuclear spin and is capable of estimating an azimuthal angle---a parameter which standard multipulse protocols cannot determine---of the target nucleus. Our protocol combines pulsed dynamic nuclear polarization, a phase-controlled radiofrequency pulse, and a multipulse AC sensing sequence with a modified readout pulse. Using a single nitrogen-vacancy center as a solid-state quantum sensor, we experimentally demonstrate this protocol on a single 13C nuclear spin in diamond and uniquely determine the lattice site of the target nucleus. Our result paves the way for magnetic resonance imaging at the single-molecular level.

description: Four different types of free energies are computed by both thermodynamical Bethe Ansatz (TBA) techniques and by weak coupling perturbation theory in an integrable one-parameter deformation of the O(4) principal chiral sigma-model (with SU(2)xU(1) symmetry). The model exhibits both `fermionic' and `bosonic' type free energies and in all cases the perturbative and the TBA results are in perfect agreement, strongly supporting the correctness of the proposed S matrix. The mass gap is also computed in terms of the Lambda parameters of the modified minimal substraction scheme and a lattice regularized version of the model.

Our methods include the Hilbert transform, perturbation series and Lagrange-Bürmann resummation.

description: In this paper, we present preliminary results illustrating the effect of cosmic rays on solid-phase chemistry in models of both TMC-1 and several sources with physical conditions identical to TMC-1 except for hypothetically enhanced ionization rates. Using a recent theory for the addition of cosmic ray-induced reactions to astrochemical models, we calculated the radiochemical yields, called $G$ values, for the primary dust grain ice-mantle constituents. We show that the inclusion of this non-thermal chemistry can lead to the formation of complex organic molecules from simpler ice-mantle constituents, even under cold core conditions. In addition to enriching ice-mantles, we find that these new radiation-chemical processes can lead to increased gas-phase abundances as well, particularly for HOCO, NO$_2$, HC$_2$O, methyl formate (HCOOCH$_3$), and ethanol (CH$_3$CH$_2$OH). These model results imply that HOCO - and perhaps NO$_2$ - might be observable in TMC-1. Future detections of either of these two species in cold interstellar environments could provide strong support for the importance of cosmic ray-driven radiation chemistry. The increased gas-phase abundance of methyl formate can be compared with abundances achieved through other formation mechanisms such as pure gas-phase chemistry and three-body surface reactions.

description: The numerical construction of polynomials in the product representation (as used for instance in variants of the multiboson technique) can become problematic if rounding errors induce an imprecise or even unstable evaluation of the polynomial. We give criteria to quantify the effects of these rounding errors on the computation of polynomials approximating the function $1/s$. We consider polynomials both in a real variable $s$ and in a Hermitian matrix. By investigating several ordering schemes for the monomials of these polynomials, we finally demonstrate that there exist orderings of the monomials that keep rounding errors at a tolerable level.

description: Predicting the number of clock cycles a processor takes to execute a block of assembly instructions in steady state (the throughput) is important for both compiler designers and performance engineers. Building an analytical model to do so is especially complicated in modern x86-64 Complex Instruction Set Computer (CISC) machines with sophisticated processor microarchitectures in that it is tedious, error prone, and must be performed from scratch for each processor generation. In this paper we present Ithemal, the first tool which learns to predict the throughput of a set of instructions. Ithemal uses a hierarchical LSTM--based approach to predict throughput based on the opcodes and operands of instructions in a basic block. We show that Ithemal is more accurate than state-of-the-art hand-written tools currently used in compiler backends and static machine code analyzers. In particular, our model has less than half the error of state-of-the-art analytical models (LLVM's llvm-mca and Intel's IACA). Ithemal is also able to predict these throughput values just as fast as the aforementioned tools, and is easily ported across a variety of processor microarchitectures with minimal developer effort.

This capability will add some unique physics capabilities to the project. Special attention will have to be paid to polarization retention for the muons.

title: Linear and Nonlinear Responses of Isotropic Beams Under Concentrated Random Loads Unsynchronized in Time

description: Large-amplitude random response of slender isotropic beams is studied using finite element analysis. The random load is assumed to be a stationary ergodic random Gaussian excitation with white noise characteristics. The loading is considered for three cases, namely synchronized, anti-synchronized, and unsynchronized in time. The linear response of beams is studied for the simply-supported and clamped-simply support conditions at the two ends. The non-linear response is, however, limited only to the simply-supported condition. There are no analytical solutions to the linear and non-linear responses of beams under concentrated random loads unsynchronized in time. The deflections due to unsynchronized loads are found to be significantly smaller than the synchronized loads. Quite interestingly, the anti-synchronized loads have shown the smallest deflections. The Power Spectral Density (PSD) plots serve as indication of modal participation and show that both anti-symmetric and symmetric modes contribute to the response for unsynchronized loads; whereas only the symmetric modes contribute to synchronized and only anti-symmetric modes to the anti-synchronized loads. There is an observable shift of the non-linear vibration frequencies to higher values as seen from PSD plots.
R-Process in Collapsing O/Ne/Mg Cores

description: Several circumstantial arguments point to the formation of the third r-process peak at A about 190, near platinum, in stars of mass of about 8-10 solar masses: 1) The delayed production of europium with respect to iron imposes a time scale that restricts the progenitor stars to less than about 10 solar masses; 2) the r-process demands a dominant robust mechanism at least for barium and above, since the relative abundance pattern of those r-process elements in low-metallicity stars is consistent with the solar pattern; 3) stars of about 8-10 solar masses produce nearly identical degenerate O/Ne/Mg cores that collapse due to electron capture; and 4) the resulting low-mass cores may produce both an r-process in a prompt explosion and a subsequent r-process in a neutrino driven wind. The prompt explosion of an O/Ne/Mg core yields low entropy and low electron fraction, and hence may produce a reasonable r-process peak at A about 190 as well as all of the r-process elements with Z greater than 56. The possible differences in the neutrino-driven wind and associated r-process due to the low-mass neutron stars expected in this mass range are also discussed.

description: Intrinsically motivated goal exploration processes enable agents to autonomously sample goals to explore efficiently complex environments with high-dimensional continuous actions. They have been applied successfully to real world robots to discover repertoires of policies producing a wide diversity of effects. Often these algorithms relied on engineered goal spaces but it was recently shown that one can use deep representation learning algorithms to learn an adequate goal space in simple environments. However, in the case of more complex environments containing multiple objects or distractors, an efficient exploration requires that the structure of the goal space reflects the one of the environment. In this paper we show that using a disentangled goal space leads to better exploration performances than an entangled goal space. We further show that when the representation is disentangled, one can leverage it by sampling goals that maximize learning progress in a modular manner. Finally, we show that the measure of learning progress, used to drive curiosity-driven exploration, can be used simultaneously to discover abstract independently controllable features of the environment.

description: The 'tHooft's 5N-parametric multiinstanton solution is generalized to curvilinear coordinates. Expressions can be simplified by a gauge transformation that makes $η$-symbols constant in the vierbein formalism. This generates the compensating addition to the gauge potential of pseudoparticles. Typical examples (4-spherical, 2+2- and 3+1-cylindrical coordinates) are studied and explicit formulae presented for reference. Singularities of the compensating field are discussed. They are irrelevant for physics but affect gauge dependent quantities.

It is based on the music-pedagogical approach and more specifically in its first part, the theoretical, the most basic information regarding Williams Syndrome is captured. These include its characteristics, the way it is diagnosed, as well as the profile of the children who have been diagnosed with it. In addition to the above, very important information is also given regarding neurobiological and behavioral features of music processing in children with Williams Syndrome. In the last part of the theoretical framework, reference is made to the Psalter art of the Holy Mountain. Then follows the research part, which includes the case study of two children with Williams Syndrome through the thorough description and citation of rich photographic material, from the conduct of the lessons. The aim is to present new ways, so that these children come into contact with Byzantine music.

A method for comparing discrete kinematic data and N-body simulations

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper describes a method for quantitatively comparing an N-body model with a sample of discrete kinematic data. The comparison has two stages: (i) finding the optimum scaling and orientation of the model relative to the data; and (ii) calculating a goodness of fit, and hence assessing the plausibility of the model in vew of the data. The method derives from considering the data and model both as samples from some underlying binned distribution function, and applying probability theory arguments. As an example, I consider a published N-body model for the Galactic bulge and disc, and fictitious l,b,v measurements, and recover (with error estimates) the spatial and velocity scales of the model and the orientation of the bar. The fictitious data are actually derived from the model by assuming the mass scale and the solar position, but their size and extent mimics a recent survey of OH/IR stars. The results indicate that mass of the bulge and our viewing angle of the bar are usefully estimable from current surveys.

description: Imaging of the dust continuum emitted from disks around nearby protostars reveals diverse substructure. In recent years, theoretical efforts have been intensified to investigate how far the intrinsic dynamics of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) can lead to such features. Turbulence in the realm of non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is one candidate for explaining the generation of zonal flows which can lead to local dust enhancements. Adopting a radially varying cylindrical disk model, and considering combinations of vertical and azimuthal initial net flux, we perform 3D non-ideal MHD simulations aimed at studying self-organization induced by the Hall effect in turbulent PPDs. To this end, new modules have been incorporated into the NIRVANA-III and FARGO3D MHD codes. We moreover include dust grains, treated in the fluid approximation, in order to study their evolution subject to the emerging zonal flows. In the regime of a dominant Hall effect, we robustly obtain large-scale organized concentrations in the vertical magnetic field that remain stable for hundreds of orbits. For disks with vertical initial net flux alone, we confirm the presence of zonal flows and vortices that introduce regions of super-Keplerian gas flow. Including a moderately strong net-azimuthal magnetic flux can significantly alter the dynamics, partially preventing the self-organization of zonal flows. For plasma beta-parameters smaller than 50, large-scale, near-axisymmetric structures develop in the vertical magnetic flux. In all cases, we demonstrate that the emerging features are capable of accumulating dust grains for a range of Stokes numbers.

description: In this paper we report the experimental implementation of a theoretically-proposed technique for creating a photoionized plasma in the laboratory using X-ray line radiation. Using a Sn laser-plasma to irradiate an Ar gas target, the photoionization parameter, ξ= 4πF/Ne, reached values of order 50 erg cm/s, where F is the radiation flux in erg/cm2/s. The significance of this is that this technique allows us to mimic effective spectral radiation temperatures in excess of 1 keV. We show that our plasma starts to be collisionally dominated before the peak of the X-ray drive. However, the technique is extendable to higher energy laser systems to create plasmas with parameters relevant to benchmarking codes used to model astrophysical objects.

description: Valid transformations between quantum states are necessarily described by completely positive maps, instead of just positive maps. Positive but not completely positive maps such as the transposition map cannot be implemented due to the existence of entanglement in composite quantum systems, but there are classes of states for which the positivity is guaranteed, e.g., states not correlated to other systems. In this paper, we introduce the concept of N-copy extension of maps to quantitatively analyze the difference between positive maps and completely positive maps. We consider implementations of the action of positive but not completely positive maps on uncorrelated states by allowing an extra resource of consuming multiple copies of the input state and characterize the positive maps in terms of implementability with multiple copies. We show that by consuming multiple copies, the set of implementable positive maps becomes larger, and almost all positive maps are implementable with finite copies of an input state. The number of copies of the input state required to implement a positive map quantifies the degree by which a positive map violates complete positivity. We then analyze the optimal N-copy implementability of a noisy version of the transposition map.

description: A search for the $b\bar b$ decay of the Standard Model Higgs boson produced through vector-boson fusion is presented. Three mutually exclusive channels are considered: two all-hadronic channels and a photon-associated channel. Results are reported from the analysis of up to 30.6 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ data at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ $\mathrm{TeV}$ collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measured signal strength relative to the Standard Model prediction from the combined analysis is $2.5^{+1.4}_{-1.3}$ for inclusive Higgs boson production and $3.0^{+1.7}_{-1.6}$ for vector-boson fusion production only.

description: The fractional inverse $M^{-γ}$ (real $γ>0$) of a matrix $M$ is expanded in a series of Gegenbauer polynomials. If the spectrum of $M$ is confined to an ellipse not including the origin, convergence is exponential, with the same rate as for Chebyshev inversion. The approximants can be improved recursively and lead to an iterative solver for $M^γx = b$ in Krylov space. In case of $γ= 1/2$, the expansion is in terms of Legendre polynomials, and rigorous bounds for the truncation error are derived.

description: Η μελέτη αυτή περιγράφει τη χειρουργική προσέγγιση των λεμφαδένων του τραχήλου στο MTC και το ρόλο της καλσιτονίνης στην πρόγνωση και στην επιλογή της κατάλληλης θεραπείας. Πραγματοποιήθηκε ανασκόπηση της βιβλιογραφίας με αναζήτηση άρθρων στις επιστημονικές βάσεις δεδομένων PubMed, Google Scholar και Scopus. Η ολική θυρεοειδεκτομή και ο κεντρικός λεμφαδενικός καθαρισμός σε απουσία λεμφαδενικών μεταστάσεων είναι η επέμβαση εκλογής. Υπάρχει διχογνωμία για τον προφυλακτικό πλάγιο λεμφαδενικό καθαρισμό στην απουσία υπερηχογραφικών μεταστάσεων στο MTC. Στο τοπικά προχωρημένο ή μεταστατικό MTC το χειρουργείο αποτελεί μονάχα παρηγορική θεραπεία. Η καλσιτονίνη είναι χρήσιμος προγνωστικός δείκτης στη μετεγχειρητική παρακολούθηση του ασθενούς. Κάθε ασθενής θα πρέπει να αξιολογείται εξατομικευμένα, ανάλογα με την ηλικία και τις συννοσηρότητες του, με το μέγεθος του όγκου, την εξωθυρεοειδική επέκταση, και τις τιμές καλσιτονίνης να είναι σημαντικοί δείκτες.
description: This study describes the cervical lymph node management in MTC and the role of calcitonin in prognosis and selection of the right treatment. The existing and relevant literature was reviewed by searching for articles in the scientific databases of PubMed, Google Scholar και Scopus. Total thyroidectomy and central lymph node dissection is the gold standard in node negative patients. There is a lot of controversy in prophylactic lateral lymph node dissection in the absence of ultrasound evidence of cervical lymph node metastases. In local advanced or metastatic MTC the surgery is only palliative. Calcitonin is a useful prognostic marker in postoperative monitoring. The patients need to be assessed case by casy, based on age and co-morbidities with tumor size, extrathyroidal extension and calcitonin levers being important markers.

description: We calculate the A-dependence of charm and beauty production cross sections on nuclear targets taking into account the difference of quark and gluon distributions in free nucleons and in nucleus. At comparatively low energies, if $σ\sim A^α$, the value of $α$ is slightly higher than unity. With the growth of the initial energy the value of $α$ decreases and becomes smaller than unity. We also calculate the values of $α$ for different Feynman-$x$ of the produced $Q\overline{Q}$ pair and obtain that they decrease significantly in the beam fragmentation region.

On the evolution of vortices in massive protoplanetary discs

description: It is expected that a pressure bump can be formed at the inner edge of a dead-zone, and where vortices can develop through the Rossby Wave Instability (RWI). It has been suggested that self-gravity can significantly affect the evolution of such vortices. We present the results of 2D hydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of vortices forming at a pressure bump in self-gravitating discs with Toomre parameter in the range $4-30$. We consider isothermal plus non-isothermal disc models that employ either the classical $β$ prescription or a more realistic treatment for cooling. The main aim is to investigate whether the condensating effect of self-gravity can stabilize vortices in sufficiently massive discs. We confirm that in isothermal disc models with ${\cal Q} \gtrsim 15$, vortex decay occurs due to the vortex self-gravitational torque. For discs with $3\lesssim {\cal Q} \lesssim 7$, the vortex develops gravitational instabilities within its core and undergoes gravitational collapse, whereas more massive discs give rise to the formation of global eccentric modes. In non-isothermal discs with $β$ cooling, the vortex maintains a turbulent core prior to undergoing gravitational collapse for $β\lesssim 0.1$, whereas it decays if $β\ge 1$. In models that incorpore both self-gravity and a better treatment for cooling, however, a stable vortex is formed with aspect ratio $χ\sim 3-4$. Our results indicate that self-gravity significantly impacts the evolution of vortices forming in protoplanetary discs, although the thermodynamical structure of the vortex is equally important for determining its long-term dynamics.

description: These Guidelines have been created by:Michelle Honey, Emma Collins and Sally Britnell
IntroductionThese guidelines identify the key knowledge, skills and behaviours toward nursing informatics for nurses as they enter practice as a Registered Nurse (RN). As such, they have been developed and articulated to inform undergraduate nursing education.With knowledge continually evolving, nurses need the tools and guidelines to adapt to the diverse and changing needs in the delivery of healthcare for New Zealanders. The New Zealand national health strategy released by the Ministry of Health calls for us to work smarter, embrace technology and to use technology to provide better health outcomes for New Zealanders. To do this we need to ensure nursing graduates can work with technology, from the simplest form of technology, such as a glucometer right through to the most complex patient management systems in order to provide optimal patient care.Through curriculum mapping, we identified a mismatch between current nursing education in New Zealand and industry requirements which highlighted the need to make nursing informatics more visible in nursing thus allowing embedding of nursing informatics into everyday nursing practice. Background reading included international nursing informatics literature including from Australia: the Australian National Informatics Standards for Nurses and Midwives; the initiative driven from the United States: Technology Informatics Guiding Education Reform (TIGER); the Royal College of Nursing in England: Every nurse an e-nurse: Digital capabilities for 21st century nursing; and from Canada: Nursing informatics entry to practice competencies for Registered Nurses.Drawing this together, the guidelines presented here identify four informatics principles for student nurses to achieve over the course of their undergraduate nursing education and enter practice as a Level One, or novice Registered Nurse.The four principles are:1. Professional practice2. Information management3. Information and communication technologies to enhance the health of New Zealanders4. General computer and ICT Skills
These principles align with Nursing Council of New Zealand (NCNZ) Competencies for Registered Nurses and were informed by an analysis of information collected via curriculum mapping, international nursing informatics competency work and consultation with industry stakeholders to provide beginning registered nurses with a clear direction for embedding nursing informatics within their practice. Inclusion of examples from everyday practice in the NZ health system adds a NZ context and as such, these guidelines form a bridge between theory, education and practice.
An Elliptic Superpotential for Softly Broken N=4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory

description: An exact superpotential is derived for the N=1 theories which arise as massive deformations of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory. The superpotential of the SU(N) theory formulated on R^{3}\times S^{1} is shown to coincide with the complexified potential of the N-body elliptic Calogero-Moser Hamiltonian. This superpotential reproduces the vacuum structure predicted by Donagi and Witten for the corresponding four-dimensional theory and also transforms covariantly under the S-duality group of N=4 SYM. The analysis yields exact formulae with interesting modular properties for the condensates of gauge-invariant chiral operators in the four-dimensional theory.

description: Over the last few years, automatic facial micro-expression analysis has garnered increasing attention from experts across different disciplines because of its potential applications in various fields such as clinical diagnosis, forensic investigation and security systems. Advances in computer algorithms and video acquisition technology have rendered machine analysis of facial micro-expressions possible today, in contrast to decades ago when it was primarily the domain of psychiatrists where analysis was largely manual. Indeed, although the study of facial micro-expressions is a well-established field in psychology, it is still relatively new from the computational perspective with many interesting problems. In this survey, we present a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art databases and methods for micro-expressions spotting and recognition. Individual stages involved in the automation of these tasks are also described and reviewed at length. In addition, we also deliberate on the challenges and future directions in this growing field of automatic facial micro-expression analysis.
