description: We propose an alternate scenario for the relation between ferromagnetism (FM) and superconductivity (SC) in UCoGe at ambient pressure. On the basis of neutron polarimetry measurement performed in strictly zero field on a single-crystal at ambient pressure, we claim that the SC phase does exist in spite of lack of long-range FM order. Moreover, the SC regime dominates to the paramagnetic (PM) state in small external magnetic fields. Above the critical SC temperature, TSC = 0.64 K, the zero-field state is characterized by a regime with strong FM spin fluctuations, suggesting the proximity of the FM quantum critical point. We present an ambient-pressure phase diagram of UCoGe based on our resistivity, magnetization and neutron polarimetry results.

description: Preprint of article published in:Australian Journal of Botany, 2010, 58 (7), 539-545.
Abstract:In addition to direct fire cues such as heat, smoke and charred wood, the passage of fire leads indirectly to changes in environmental conditions which may be able to break physical dormancy in hard-coated seeds. After a fire, the open canopy and the burnt material lying on the surface alter the thermal properties of the soil, resulting in elevated soil temperatures for long periods of time. We simulated daily temperature regimes experienced at different depths of soil profile after a summer fire. Our aim was to determine whether these temperature regimes and the duration of exposure (5, 15 and 30 days) play an important role breaking physical seed dormancy in six legumes from south-eastern Australia. Our results showed that simulated temperature regimes break seed dormancy. This effect is specially pronounced at temperatures that are expected to occur near the soil surface (0–2 cm depth). The duration of exposure interacts with temperature to break dormancy, with the highest germination rates reached after the longest duration and highest temperatures. However, the germination response varied among species. Therefore, this indirect post-fire cue could play a role in the regeneration of plant communities, and could stimulate seedling emergence independent of direct fire cues as well as in interaction with direct cues.
Public spaces critical issues analysis for soft mobility

description: Over time, one of the causes that led to the progressive reduction in the public space quality is the massive diffusion of private cars. The characteristics of quality, safety, and accessibility should be indispensable for the public space, and these needs should be met through targeted interventions, with particular attention to the integration between urban planning and mobility. Therefore, in this article, we study the public spaces criticalities to promote soft mobility. A methodology is proposed for the definition of the public spaces’ cognitive framework. The methodology is based on three different phases: the urban context analysis, the analysis of the perception of space by the user, and some preparatory solutions for the subsequent design phase. Technical analyzes are based on on-site observations, measurements, data processing, and thematic maps. On the contrary, the perception phase is based on the direct involvement of citizens through a survey. The methodology is applied to the case study of the San Bartolomeo and Casazza districts of the city of Brescia. The results show a strong connection between the urban spaces geometric characteristics and their perception by users, useful for the design of a public space weighted to the needs encountered.

description: It is likely that Autonomous Vehicles will have significant social, cultural, spatial and environmental implications and that the interaction between humans, automated vehicles and physical environment will provide an array of challenges. This paper aims to explore the use of innovative visualisation approaches, to foster discussion on possible scenarios involving AVs. It is argued that such an approach might be used to help conceptualise human experiences with the potential to enhance understanding of the complex human-machine associations. Presenting journeys from different perspectives and reconceptualising the context through the eyes of AVs emphasized the nuances of experience between the machines, urban space and human bodies. Unexpected user-technology interactions will emerge as humans are not always passive followers and can be apprehensive when it comes to accepting such a novel technology as self-driving vehicles. The focus applied in the methodology and data capture was on inclusivity of data, showing not only movement but also noise and human experience of a space. The integration of AVs on public roads will rely on technical innovation to ensure that vehicles can operate safely yet, the study of the perceptual and ethical effects of technology and potential influences on society via engaging the public will help to manage expectations and create platforms for mutual learning.

Knowledge seeking and communicative strategies for early stage entrepreneurs
Creators: name: Shi, Wei
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: While human capital, social capital, and financial capital are considered key resources for entrepreneurs to survive the process of evolution from idea generation to venture growth, it is the knowledge about where to access these resources and how to deploy them that differentiates entrepreneurs’ experiences in the early stage of founding an organization. This dissertation examines how entrepreneurs seek knowledge through various multiplex communicative strategies during the nascent and new business stages to overcome the barriers of emergence. Prior research on entrepreneurial knowledge provides insights on the outcomes of entrepreneurs’ knowledge-seeking activity, yet few researchers have focused on the specific communicative processes that relate to the acquisition of knowledge. Drawing on scholarship related to knowledge management, media use, and entrepreneurship, this dissertation includes three components pertaining to early stage entrepreneurs’ knowledge-seeking behaviors: knowledge ambiguity management, the influence of prior experience, and mentor selection and engagement. The empirical context is high tech industries in the New York City metropolitan area, featuring one of the biggest entrepreneurship ecosystems in the world. The mixed-method approach employed integrates insights emerging from observation, thematic analysis of interviews, and quantitative analysis of survey data.The results generally highlight the significance of media multiplexity in facilitating entrepreneurs’ access of knowledge and resources. Entrepreneurs use online and offline communication channels strategically to cope with the knowledge ambiguity arising from their social and business environments, with tactics such as optimizing information relevance, accessing indirect knowledge, and increasing communication efficiency. Prior industry experience may not necessarily enhance an entrepreneur’s access of knowledge. The findings also highlight the importance of establishing mentor-mentee relationships in seeking knowledge. Age similarity, ethnic similarity, and trust are key conditions for developing multiplex media ties with mentors. In addition, entrepreneurs rely heavily on peers to facilitate knowledge interpretation. While the traditional concept of mentors emphasizes career guidance, the network brokerage function of a mentor is more relevant in entrepreneurial context. In summary, the findings of this dissertation generate crucial insights into the understanding of communication strategies used by early stage entrepreneurs in acquiring knowledge and overcoming the liabilities of newness and smallness.

description: We present the first theoretical treatment of the formation of highly excited neutral H atoms (H$^{*}$) for strongly driven H$_{2}$. This process, with one electron ionizing and one captured in a Rydberg state, was recently reported in an experimental study in Phys. Rev. Lett {\bf 102} 113002 (2009). We show that two mechanisms underlie this process: a non-sequential one resembling non-sequential double ionization, and a sequential one resembling double ionization through enhanced ionization. We also predict a new feature, asymmetric energy sharing between H$^{*}$ and H$^{+}$ with increasing intensity. This feature is a striking demonstration of the influence the electron has on the nuclear motion.
The cycle network: a latent environmental infrastructure

description: The topic to be investigated is the potential interdependence between the cycling network and the management of rainwater in the mid-Adriatic region of Abruzzo. Preliminarily, two observations. The first concerns cycling: in Italy it is constantly increasing, both in terms of territorial diffusion and turnover. The second: the frequency of urban flooding, resulting from extreme atmospheric phenomena, has been constantly increasing. However, cycling and urban flooding are two issues addressed separately. The first is framed as a contribution to slow mobility. The second is treated as a continuing emergency. The goal is to overcome separateness. And imagine the cycle network as an environmental infrastructure that, in addition to supporting the transit of bicycles, can contribute to a better collection and management of rainwater too, as an alternative to the sewer system. This hypothesis works on those cities that have transformed water from an agent that generates dangerous conditions, into a strategic resource. Methodologically, the projects and intervention programs will be compared to the: network space, space associated with the network and context space. The comparison aims to provide some lines of action useful for orienting the actions of the urban plan in the mid-Adriatic region of Abruzzo of Abruzzo.

description: Active mobility, in the form of walking and cycling, is one of the most affordable and practical ways to promote sustainable modes of transport in urban areas, creating walkable, safe, healthy and livable environments. Given its multiple beneficial effects, the scientific community frequently considers it as a driver of urban regeneration, highlighting its role in the enhancement of accessibility and competitiveness. This study aims to deepen the role of active mobility in the redevelopment of historical districts characterized by economic and social marginality, as well as consider the resulting improvement of connectivity, attractiveness, and quality of life. To this end, we identify and classify strategies and best practices of active mobility provided by recent papers and international reports. In addition, we propose the application to a significant case study, Pizzofalcone, in the City of Naples. The area, characterized by high historical, architectural, landscape and cultural value, is not integrated with the rest of the historic city center and currently suffers economic and social marginality. The project proposal, which suggests the redevelopment of the area by redesigning pedestrian and cyclist paths, could be an interesting and economical solution to make Pizzofalcone a fundamental hub for the city and a crossing point for a multitude of people

A comparison of the loss function of the undoped and doped compound shows the appearance of a new peak in the optical gap, which we attribute to the charge carrier plasmon. We find a dramatic increase for the value of the background dielectric constant $ε_{\infty}$ upon doping. Our core level excitation data clearly signal filling of the conduction bands with electrons upon potassium addition.

description: This study analysed tomato production in some selected Local Government Areas of Kano State, Nigeria. The specific objectives were to: describe the socio-economic characteristics of tomato farmers; assess tomato value addition by farmers and marketing channels; determine the profitability of tomato production; and identify the constraints associated with tomato production in the study area. The study adopted multistage sampling technique to collect primary data from 101 respondents using a semi-structured questionnaire. Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics and gross margin analysis. The findings of the study reveal that tomato production is a male-dominated activity, who are mostly married (85.5%), having an average household size of 9 persons. Similarly, the study revealed that all the respondents were small-scale farmers cultivating below 5 ha of land with a mean farming experience of about 15 years. Findings of the study revealed that the majority of produce are sold at the farmgate and local markets, mostly in fresh forms. The gross margin of the venture was ₦302832, while the Net farm income and return on investment were ₦245916 and 114.5% respectively. This implies that tomato production is a profitable venture in the study area. Based on the result, pest and diseases, lack of modern production and processing facilities, inadequate capital, inadequate information on production and marketing, price fluctuation, and lack of government support were ranked topmost among the respondents’ challenges. The study recommends among others the need for farmers to be encouraged to form strong cooperative societies through which they can access resources necessary for their activities.
Bounds of percolation thresholds in the enhanced binary tree

description: By studying its subgraphs, it is argued that the lower critical percolation threshold of the enhanced binary tree (EBT) is bounded as $p_{c1} < 0.355059$, while the upper threshold is bounded both from above and below by 1/2 according to renormalization-group arguments. We also review a correlation analysis in an earlier work, which claimed a significantly higher estimate of $p_{c2}$ than 1/2, to show that this analysis in fact gives a consistent result with this bound. Our result confirms that the duality relation between critical thresholds does not hold exactly for the EBT and its dual, possibly due to the lack of transitivity.

description: Urban regeneration processes represent an opportunity to pursue a sustainable city model. From a sustainable city perspective, the contribution to the redesign of public space and mobility infrastructures and to the improvement of pedestrian and cycle accessibility to local public services is undoubtedly significant. Within this framework, the Italian Region of Emilia-Romagna, promoted an Urban regeneration Call in 2018 to which cities submitted project proposals concerning the redevelopment of both architectural emergencies and public open spaces, paying particular attention to sustainable mobility issues. About 100 proposals have been submitted and several municipalities received funding. This paper analyses in particular the proposals submitted by the provincial capital cities, through a comparative approach, focusing on mobility, accessibility improvements and open space redevelopment. The aim is to highlight similarities and differences in order to identify some common guiding principles for enhancing sustainable urban mobility.

description: PREP4BLUE, the first Coordination and Support Action (CSA) for the Mission Ocean and Waters, plays a critical role in supporting the Mission’s objective of establishing a revamped governance model for oceans, seas, and waters, as well as enhancing public mobilization.

This report is one of the outcomes of the Work Package 6 activities on stakeholder engagement, which implements a multidisciplinary, multi-stakeholder approach based on the 'Penta-Helix Model.' This model includes industry, public authorities, academia, civil society, and environmental organizations, all working together to boost stakeholder engagement in the Mission.

The stakeholder engagement process of pilot assemblies within PREP4BLUE is built on a structured, multi-step approach: needs assessments, pre-engagement planning, and collaboration with LightHouse (LH) CSA projects.

PREP4BLUE's primary contribution has been the creation of comprehensive stakeholder engagement guidelines and toolkits, along with the WaveLinks platform for identifying and analysing stakeholder engagement methods.

These tools were tested through four regional pilot assemblies, held across different basins: AtlanticArctic, Mediterranean, Danube-Black Sea, and Baltic-North Sea. Each assembly focused on one of the Mission’s key objectives, such as ecosystem restoration, pollution reduction, and fostering a sustainable blue economy. These assemblies brought together diverse stakeholders, fostering collaborative governance models, democratic participatory processes, and generating key outcomes, such as sub-regional roadmaps. The co-creation process was central to these assemblies, where participants from various sectors worked together to identify problems, discuss challenges, and create tangible solutions.

The pilot assemblies provided a tangible framework for stakeholder engagement, testing and validating relevant engagement methods and event formats that will guide future engagement strategies within the Mission Ocean and Waters.

This report delivers the main results of the pilot stakeholder assemblies, outlining the methodology and engagement process followed in each pilot. It also provides an analysis of the key methods tested, such as the World Café and the role-playing game, as well as relevant public consultation processes showcased during these events.

The main findings from the pilot assemblies, including methodologies, lessons learned, and best practices, will inform the design and implementation of future stakeholder engagements across the Mission Ocean and Waters. By testing and refining innovative engagement strategies, PREP4BLUE is paving the way for more effective governance and enhanced citizen and stakeholder involvement in ocean and water management, ultimately contributing to the achievement of the Mission’s ambitious objectives

description: We consider a non singular origin for the Universe starting from an Einstein static Universe in the framework of a theory which uses two volume elements $\sqrt{-{g}}d^{4}x$ and $Φd^{4}x$, where $Φ$ is a metric independent density, also curvature, curvature square terms, first order formalism and for scale invariance a dilaton field $ϕ$ are considered in the action. In the Einstein frame we also add a cosmological term that parametrizes the zero point fluctuations. The resulting effective potential for the dilaton contains two flat regions, for $ϕ\rightarrow \infty$ relevant for the non singular origin of the Universe and $ϕ\rightarrow -\infty$, describing our present Universe. Surprisingly, avoidance of singularities and stability as $ϕ\rightarrow \infty$ imply a positive but small vacuum energy as $ϕ\rightarrow -\infty$. Zero vacuum energy density for the present universe is the "threshold" for universe creation.

The morphology of, and impact of wildfire smoke on the development of, the convective boundary layer over Southwestern British Columbia
Creators: name: Ferrara, Madison R.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model was used to understand spatial and temporal variations in convective boundary layer (CBL) height over Southwestern British Columbia. The model was evaluated with several vertical profiles collected by Windsond weather balloons and was found to be in good agreement with observed data. A comparison between terrain height and CBL height showed that the CBL is more terrain following in the morning and less terrain following in the afternoon. This behaviour was further quantified by calculating r and T values for each hour using mean CBL height data for each month. The least terrain following behaviour occurred at 1400 PST for each month. Mean CBL depth (above ground level) was contoured over the study region and showed that the CBL tended to grow deepest in the eastern half of the Fraser Valley, however, several mountain peaks had a CBL depth similar to those observed over the valley. Mean CBL height (mean sea level) showed that, for all mountain peaks, the CBL was higher than all locations over the Fraser Valley. The large spatial variations in CBL height were shown to be able to result in the formation of elevated layers over the valley via advective venting. A thick layer of wildfire smoke that was present in the lower atmosphere during summer 2017 was documented to understand the impact it had on CBL development. The plume had an aerosol optical depth (AOD) of about 4 during the most intense period and PM₂.₅ concentrations exceeded 50 µg/m³. Windsond profiles collected before and during this event showed a more stable atmosphere existing on the smoke day. The potential temperature gradient was higher near the surface and lower aloft when smoke was present in the atmosphere compared to the clear day. It has been speculated that the impact on atmospheric stability due to wildfire smoke can act as a feedback loop by suppressing CBL growth, allowing pollutants to accumulate in the lower atmosphere, thus further degrading air quality.

description: In the deterministic context Bakushinskii's theorem excludes the existence of purely data driven convergent regularization for ill-posed problems. We will prove in the present work that in the statistical setting we can either construct a counter example or develop an equivalent formulation depending on the considered class of probability distributions. Hence, Bakushinskii's theorem does not generalize to the statistical context, although this has often been assumed in the past. To arrive at this conclusion, we will deduce from the classic theory new concepts for a general study of statistical inverse problems and perform a systematic clarification of the key ideas of statistical regularization.

description: In this paper, we examine the (LRS) Bianchi-type-I cosmological model with holographic dark energy. The exact solutions to the corresponding field equations are obtained by using generalized hybrid expansion law (HEL). The EoS parameter $ω$ for DE is found to be time dependent and redshift dependent and its exiting range for derived model is agreeing well with the current observations. Here we likewise apply two mathematical diagnostics, the statefinder ({r, s}) and $ω_{d}-ω^{'}_{d}$ plane to segregate HDE model from the $ΛCDM$ model. Here the $ω_{d}-ω^{'}_{d}$ diagnostic trajectories is the good tool to classifying the dynamical DE model. We found that our model lies in both thawing region and freezing region. We have also construct the potential as well as dynamics of the quintessence and tachyon scalar field. Some physical and geometric properties of this model along with the physical acceptability of cosmological solution have been discussed in detail.

Monitoring stroke rehabilitation of arm movement outside of the clinical setting

description: Stroke is the leading cause of disability in North America. Fifty-four percent of stroke survivors suffer from upper body hemiparesis, a weakness that limits the client’s ability to perform functional tasks with the affected side of the body. Stroke rehabilitation aims to recover limb mobility through thousands of repeated functional movements that lead to neural regeneration. However, time constraints in clinical rehabilitation lead to an average of 32 arm repetitions per session, which is insufficient for optimal recovery. Accurate monitoring of client activity outside of the clinical setting could enable therapists to track what they do, improving recovery. To address this problem, we have designed the Arm Rehabilitation Monitor (ARM), a wrist-worn device that collects movement data in unconstrained environments, and processes it offline to identify reach actions. Reach actions were identified as functionally meaningful tasks that lead to better rehabilitation. We enrolled 15 participants with mild to moderate hemiparesis due to stroke to perform two activities: (1) a functional assessment of the arm, and (2) an activity of daily living (ADL) task that consisted of making a pizza. The data recorded by the IMU on both activities was used to train three different machine learning algorithms (Random Forest, Convolutional Neural Networks and Shapelets) to detect reaching gestures. We found that the ARM obtained the best results with the Random Forest and CNN algorithms. The CNN algorithm had the best F1-score (0.523) for the Clinic-Home inter-subject tests, while the RF algorithm obtained the best score (0.486) in the Clinic-Home intra-subject configuration. We used the ARM to estimate the time spent reaching and the number of reach counts. The CNN algorithm predicted the reach time for the Clinic-Home inter-subject tests to be 1.07x ( 0.55x) the true reach time and the reach counts to be 1.28x ( 0.40x) the true number of reach gestures. In turn, the RF algorithm predicted the reach time for the Clinic-Home intra-subject configuration to be 1.16x ( 0.84x) and the reach counts to be 1.26x (0.40x). Both results have a smaller standard deviation when estimating reach counts than a comparable commercial accelerometer worn on the wrist.

description: Widespread interest in the diffusion of information through social networks has produced a large number of Social Dynamics models. A majority of them use theoretical hypothesis to explain their diffusion mechanisms while the few empirically based ones average out their measures over many messages of different content. Our empirical research tracking the step-by-step email propagation of an invariable viral marketing message delves into the content impact and has discovered new and striking features. The topology and dynamics of the propagation cascades display patterns not inherited from the email networks carrying the message. Their disconnected, low transitivity, tree-like cascades present positive correlation between their nodes probability to forward the message and the average number of neighbors they target and show increased participants' involvement as the propagation paths length grows. Such patterns not described before, nor replicated by any of the existing models of information diffusion, can be explained if participants make their pass-along decisions based uniquely on local knowledge of their network neighbors affinity with the message content. We prove the plausibility of such mechanism through a stylized, agent-based model that replicates the \emph{Affinity Paths} observed in real information diffusion cascades.

Gain of the kinetic energy of bipolarons in the t-J-Holstein model based on electron-phonon coupling

description: With increasing electron-phonon coupling as described within the t-J-Holstein model, bipolaron kinetic energy is lowered in comparison with that of the polaron. This effect is accompanied with "undressing" of bipolaron from lattice degrees of freedom. Consequently, the effective bipolaron mass becomes smaller than the polaron mass. Magnetic as well as lattice degrees of freedom cooperatively contribute to formation of spin-lattice bipolarons.

description: The formation of a thin current sheet in a magnetic quasi-separatrix layer (QSL) is investigated by means of numerical simulation using a simplified ideal, low-$β$, MHD model. The initial configuration and driving boundary conditions are relevant to phenomena observed in the solar corona and were studied earlier by Aulanier et al., A&A 444, 961 (2005). In extension to that work, we use the technique of adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) to significantly enhance the local spatial resolution of the current sheet during its formation, which enables us to follow the evolution into a later stage. Our simulations are in good agreement with the results of Aulanier et al. up to the calculated time in that work. In a later phase, we observe a basically unarrested collapse of the sheet to length scales that are more than one order of magnitude smaller than those reported earlier. The current density attains correspondingly larger maximum values within the sheet. During this thinning process, which is finally limited by lack of resolution even in the AMR studies, the current sheet moves upward, following a global expansion of the magnetic structure during the quasi-static evolution. The sheet is locally one-dimensional and the plasma flow in its vicinity, when transformed into a co-moving frame, qualitatively resembles a stagnation point flow. In conclusion, our simulations support the idea that extremely high current densities are generated in the vicinities of QSLs as a response to external perturbations, with no sign of saturation.

description: We study the performance and convergence properties of the Susceptibility Propagation (SusP) algorithm for solving the Inverse Ising problem. We first study how the temperature parameter (T) in a Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model generating the data influences the performance and convergence of the algorithm. We find that at the high temperature regime (T>4), the algorithm performs well and its quality is only limited by the quality of the supplied data. In the low temperature regime (T<4), we find that the algorithm typically does not converge, yielding diverging values for the couplings. However, we show that by stopping the algorithm at the right time before divergence becomes serious, good reconstruction can be achieved down to T~2. We then show that dense connectivity, loopiness of the connectivity, and high absolute magnetization all have deteriorating effects on the performance of the algorithm. When absolute magnetization is high, we show that other methods can be work better than SusP. Finally, we show that for neural data with high absolute magnetization, SusP performs less well than TAP inversion.
