description: The recent SMC data of $xg_1^d(x)$ are reproduced with the large polarized gluons. To study further the polarized gluon distribution in a proton, we calculate the spin--dependent differential cross section for J/$ψ$ leptoproductions and the two--spin asymmetry for J/$ψ$ hadroproductions. Its experimental implication is discussed.

description: Background: Stroke is often a severe and debilitating event that requires ongoing rehabilitation. The Community Stroke Rehabilitation Teams (CSRTs) offer home-based stroke rehabilitation to individuals for whom further therapy is unavailable or inaccessible. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the CSRT programme compared with a “Usual Care” cohort. Methods: We collected data on CSRT clients from January 2012 to February 2013. Comparator data were derived from a study of stroke survivors with limited access to specialised stroke rehabilitation. Literature-derived values were used to inform a long-term projection. Using Markov modelling, we projected the model for 35 years in six-month cycles. One-way, two-way, and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed. Results were discounted at 3% per year. Results: Results demonstrated that the CSRT programme has a net monetary benefit (NMB) of $43,655 over Usual Care, and is both less costly and more effective (incremental cost = −$17,255; incremental effect = 1.65 Quality Adjusted Life Years [QALYs]). Results of the probabilistic sensitivity analysis revealed that incremental cost-effectiveness of the CSRT programme is superior in 100% of iterations when compared to Usual Care. Conclusions: The study shows that CSRT model of care is cost-effective, and should be considered when evaluating potential stroke rehabilitation delivery methods.Implications for RehabilitationOngoing rehabilitation following stroke is imperative for optimal recovery.Home-based specialised stroke rehabilitation may be an option for individuals for whom ongoing rehabilitation is unavailable or inaccessible.The results of this study demonstrated that home-based rehabilitation is a cost-effective means of providing ongoing rehabilitation to individuals who have experienced a stroke.

description: Previous secondary eclipse observations of the hot Jupiter Qatar-1b in the Ks band suggest that it may have an unusually high day side temperature, indicative of minimal heat redistribution. There have also been indications that the orbit may be slightly eccentric, possibly forced by another planet in the system. We investigate the day side temperature and orbital eccentricity using secondary eclipse observations with Spitzer. We observed the secondary eclipse with Spitzer/IRAC in subarray mode, in both 3.6 and 4.5 micron wavelengths. We used pixel-level decorrelation to correct for Spitzer's intra-pixel sensitivity variations and thereby obtain accurate eclipse depths and central phases. Our 3.6 micron eclipse depth is 0.149 +/- 0.051% and the 4.5 micron depth is 0.273 +/- 0.049%. Fitting a blackbody planet to our data and two recent Ks band eclipse depths indicates a brightness temperature of 1506 +/- 71K. Comparison to model atmospheres for the planet indicates that its degree of longitudinal heat redistribution is intermediate between fully uniform and day side only. The day side temperature of the planet is unlikely to be as high (1885K) as indicated by the ground-based eclipses in the Ks band, unless the planet's emergent spectrum deviates strongly from model atmosphere predictions. The average central phase for our Spitzer eclipses is 0.4984 +/- 0.0017, yielding e cos(omega) = -0.0028 +/- 0.0027. Our results are consistent with a circular orbit, and we constrain e cos(omega) much more strongly than has been possible with previous observations.

description: We show that cosmological observables can constrain the topology of the compact additional dimensions predicted by string theory. To do this, we develop a general strategy for relating cosmological observables to the microscopic parameters of the potentials and field-dependent kinetic terms of the multiple scalar fields that arise in the low-energy limit of string theory. We apply this formalism to the Large Volume Scenarios in Type IIB flux compactifications where analytical calculations are possible. Our methods generalize to other settings.

description: The complexity in smart energy systems is increasing due to the integration of renewable energy resources which also results in a higher complexity in planning and operating the corresponding energy infrastructure. However, solutions and development like intelligent automation, smart control, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), etc. provide the technical basis to turn the existing power system into an intelligent entity, a cyber-physical energy system and therefore to cope with the raising complexity. While reaping the benefits with new intelligent behaviours, it is expected that system-level developments (architectural concepts, advanced automation and control, etc.) as well as the validation and testing will play a significantly larger role in realising future solutions and technologies. The implementation and deployment of these systems of systems are associated with increasing engineering complexity resulting also in increased engineering costs. Therefore, this talk tackles this trends and provides an overview about the provision of system-level validation methods and concepts for cyber-physical energy systems.

description: We measured new abundances of so-called light neutron-capture of first peak elements using local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) 1D analysis; this analysis resulted in a sample of 11 very metal-poor stars, from [Fe/H]=-2.5 to [Fe/H]=-3.4, and one carbon-rich star, CS 22949-037 with [Fe/H]=-4.0. The abundances were compared to those observed in two classical metal-poor stars: the typical r-rich star CS 31082-001 ([Eu/Fe] > +1.0) and the r-poor star HD 122563 ([Eu/Fe] < 0.0), which are known to present a strong enrichment of the first peak neutron-capture elements relative to the second peak. Within the first peak, the abundances are well correlated in analogy to the well-known correlation inside the abundances of the second-peak elements. In contrast, there is no correlation between any first peak element with any second peak element. We show that the scatter of the ratio of the first peak abundance over second peak abundance increases when the mean abundance of the second peak elements decreases from r-rich to r-poor stars. We found two new r-poor stars that are very similar to HD 122563. A third r-poor star, CS 22897-008, is even more extreme; this star shows the most extreme example of first peak elements enrichment to date. On the contrary, another r-poor star (BD-18 5550) has a pattern of first peak elements that is similar to the typical r-rich stars CS 31082-001, however this star has some Mo enrichment. The distribution of the neutron-capture elements in our very metal-poor stars can be understood as the combination of at least two mechanisms: one that enriches the forming stars cloud homogeneously through the main r-process and leads to an element pattern similar to the r-rich stars, such as CS 31082-001; and another that forms mainly lighter, first peak elements.

description: The British election in the spring of 1979 brought to power a Conservative government committed to a policy of reducing inflation and increasing the growth of real output and productivity. In the recent past, Britain even more than the United States experienced high inflation and slow growth of output and in common with the United States suffered from excessive regulation and scarce improvement in productivity. Between the sixties and seventies, inflation in Britain increased from an average of 4% to 13%, and the growth of output slowed from 3% to 2% or less.

description: We propose a new test for distinguishing observationally cosmological models based on seed-like primordial perturbations (like cosmic strings or textures), from models based on Gaussian fluctuations. We investigate analytically the {\it Fourier space} statistical properties of temperature or density fluctuation patterns generated by seed-like objects and compare these properties with those of Gaussian fluctuations generated during inflation. We show that the proposed statistical test can easily identify temperature fluctuations produced by a superposition of a small number of seeds per horizon scale for {\it any} observational angular resolution and {\it any} seed geometry. However, due to the Central Limit Theorem, the distinction becomes more difficult as the number of seeds in the fluctuation pattern increases.

description: The Catalonian government’s 2017 decision to hold a referendum on secession from Spain was many centuries in the making. There are great differences in the culture,language, economy, and government of Spain and Catalonia. These differences have led to oppressive rules and laws in Catalonia ranging from the Nueva Planta Decrees after the Spanish War of Secession, to the extreme and oppressive rule of the Franco regime after the Spanish Civil War, to the current government in Spain that has made it unconstitutional for Catalonia or any other province of Spain to vote on their ownindependence. This thesis will attempt to answer the question: What are the Catalonian Independence Movement’s main root causes and what impact do these causes have on the people, culture, and language of Spain and Catalonia? The Catalonian Independence Movement has pushed the two sides far apart since the Spanish Civil war of the 1930s. This chasm has led to two distinct economies, languages, cultures, and views of government and democracy. This rift between Spain and Catalonia could change the landscape of Spain and Europe as a whole.

description: The measure of quantum entanglement is determined for any dimer, either ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic, spin-1/2 Heisenberg systems in the presence of external magnetic field. The physical quantity proposed as a measure of thermal quantum entanglement is the distance between states defined through the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. It has been shown that for ferromagnetic systems there is no entanglement at all. However, although under applied magnetic field, antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 dimers exhibit entanglement for temperatures below the decoherence temperature -- the one above which the entanglement vanishes. In addition to that, the decoherence temperature shows to be proportional to the exchange coupling constant and independent on the applied magnetic field, consequently, the entanglement may not be destroyed by external magnetic fields -- the phenomenon of {\it magnetic shielding effect of quantum entanglement states}. This effect is discussed for the binuclear nitrosyl iron complex [Fe$_2$(SC$_3$H$_5$N$_2$)$_2$(NO)$_4$] and it is foreseen that the quantum entanglement survives even under high magnetic fields of Tesla orders of magnitude.

description: We present the analysis of 23 published rotation curves of disk galaxies belonging to the Ursa Major group of galaxies, with kinematics free of irregularities. The rotation curves are analysed in the context of MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics). We add an extra component to the rotation curve fits, in addition to the stellar and gaseous disks: a speculative halo of constant density made of, e.g., neutrinos, which would solve the bulk of the problem currently faced by MOND on rich galaxy clusters scales. We find that this additional unseen mass density is poorly constrained (as expected a priori, given that a neutrino halo never dominates the kinematics), but we also find that the best-fit value is non-zero: rho = 3.8 x 10^{-27} g/cm^3, and that a zero-density is marginally excluded with 87% confidence; also, the 95% confidence upper limit for the density is rho = 9.6 x 10^{-27} g/cm^3. These limits are slightly above the expectations from the Tremaine-Gunn phase space constraints on ordinary 2 eV neutrinos, but in accordance with the maximum density expected for one or two species of 5 eV sterile neutrinos.

description: The three phase transitions - the GUT, the electro-weak and the quark-hadron, which the universe is assumed to have undergone produce very important physical effects if they are assumed to be of first order. It is also important that enough supercooling is produced at these transitions so that the rate of nucleation of the lower temperature phase out of the higher temperature phase is large. We argue on the basis of finite-size scaling theory that for the quark-hadron and the electro-weak transitions the universe does nor supercool enough to produce sizeable nucleation rates. Only for the GUT transition nucleation probability seems to be significant.

description: Globular Clusters (GCs) exhibit star-to-star variations in specific elements (e.g., He, C, N, O, Na, Al) that bare the hallmark of high temperature H burning. These abundance variations can be observed spectroscopically and also photometrically, with the appropriate choice of filters, due to the changing of spectral features within the band pass. This phenomenon is observed in nearly all of the ancient GCs, although, to date, has not been found in any massive cluster younger than 2~Gyr. Many scenarios have been suggested to explain this phenomenon, with most invoking multiple epochs of star-formation within the cluster, however all have failed to reproduce various key observations, in particular when a global view of the GC population is taken. We review the state of current observations, and outline the successes and failures of each of the main proposed models. The traditional idea of using the stellar ejecta from a 1st generation of stars to form a 2nd generation of stars, while conceptually straight forward, has failed to reproduce an increasing number of observational constraints. We conclude that the puzzle of multiple populations remains unsolved, hence alternative theories are needed.

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: One of the most important features in the solar atmosphere is magnetic network and its rela- tionship with the transition region (TR), and coronal brightness. It is important to understand how energy is transported into the corona and how it travels along the magnetic-field lines be- tween deep photosphere and chromosphere through the TR and corona. An excellent proxy for transportation is the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) raster scans and imaging observations in near-ultraviolet (NUV) and far-ultraviolet (FUV) emission channels with high time-spatial resolutions. In this study, we focus on the quiet Sun as observed with IRIS. The data with high signal to noise ratio in Si IV, C II and Mg II k lines and with strong emission intensities show a high correlation in TR bright network points. The results of the IRIS intensity maps and dopplergrams are compared with those of Atmo- spheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) and Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) instruments onboard the Solar Dynamical Observatory (SDO). The average network intensity profiles show a strong correlation with AIA coronal channels. Furthermore, we applied simultaneous observations of magnetic network from HMI and found a strong relationship between the network bright points in all levels of the solar atmosphere. These features in network elements exhibited high doppler velocity regions and large mag- netic signatures. A dominative fraction of corona bright points emission, accompanied by the magnetic origins in photosphere, suggest that magnetic-field concentrations in the network rosettes could help couple between inner and outer solar atmosphere.

Throughout the process, I spoke to consumers and make hundreds of gallons of sangria (testing over 60 recipes with 700+ people) and learning a ridiculous amount about the alcohol industry. I created Little Bird Sangria, a great-tasting, next-gen sangria made with wine, fruit, and nothing else -- no artificial flavors and no added sugar. It's a light, refreshing, and effervescent take on the classic drink with two flavors, classic red and white peach.

description: The increasing pace of change in the global business environment has exposed the limitations of the predominant business organizational form, the bureaucratic hierarchy. As business organizations wake up to a new technological, business, or cultural paradigm seemingly every day, rigid hierarchical structures prove slow to adapt and large organizations find themselves consistently losing out to small, innovative startups. This trend has spawned new academic and practitioner interest in alternative organizational forms. Among these forms, the distributed decision-making organization (DDO), an organization that has distributed decision-making authority throughout the company, eliminating most hierarchy within the company, has been a particular focus due to its novelty and demonstrated success. The academic and practitioner literature to date has focused largely on 1) case studies of DDOs, 2) assessing the efficacy of the form, 3) describing the organizational practices of DDOs, and 4) distinguishing and delineating the various sub-forms within the DDO category. Relatively little academic or practitioner focus has been dedicated to analyzing constraints on the form, and even then, the focus has been on internal constraints, such as employee attitudes, reluctant managers, and internal power dynamics. In this thesis, I analyze how external forces constrain, control, and influence two types of distributed decision-making organizations: radically decentralized organizations (RDOs) and self-managed organizations (SMOs). The hierarchical assumptions entrenched in the global business environment, in law, regulation, norms, and attitudes, are anathema to the principles and practices of DDOs and thus present a unique potential to constrain and influence these organizations. In this thesis, I analyze how these assumptions operate on DDOs to influence their organizational practices, frustrate their organizational objectives, and, particularly in times of crisis and transition, even threaten their existence. I will look at both the theoretical foundations for the external control over DDOs and examples of this control from firsthand and secondhand sources. Throughout, I will offer examples of how DDOs have mitigated the influence of these external forces or, in some cases, have succumbed to external pressures in ways that violate their core principles. It is my hope that, through this thesis, I will be able to demonstrate that the external constraints on DDOs, though sometimes great, are rarely insurmountable.

description: Cross-depiction is the problem of identifying the same object even when it is depicted in a variety of manners. This is a common problem in handwritten historical documents image analysis, for instance when the same letter or motif is depicted in several different ways. It is a simple task for humans yet conventional heuristic computer vision methods struggle to cope with it. In this paper we address this problem using state-of-the-art deep learning techniques on a dataset of historical watermarks containing images created with different methods of reproduction, such as hand tracing, rubbing, and radiography. To study the robustness of deep learning based approaches to the cross-depiction problem, we measure their performance on two different tasks: classification and similarity rankings. For the former we achieve a classification accuracy of 96% using deep convolutional neural networks. For the latter we have a false positive rate at 95% true positive rate of 0.11. These results outperform state-of-the-art methods by a significant margin.

description: We estimate a model of labor supply and savings over the life cycle where key parameters — including the interest rate, the degree of risk aversion and the fixed cost of working, and the stochastic processes of health, mortality, and wages — are all allowed to vary by race. We find the Black-white gap in the labor force participation rate at age 62 is mostly due to the racial differences in health and the fixed cost of participation, and the Black-white gap in wealth at age 62 is mostly due to the racial wage gap. In addition to the racial differences in preferences and skills, labor market discrimination against Blacks could also contribute to their higher fixed cost of participation and lower wages. This suggests that reducing the discrimination faced by Blacks in the labor market could significantly reduce the racial disparities in retirement preparedness.

description: Understanding strongly correlated quantum systems is a central problem in many areas of physics. The collective behavior of interacting particles gives rise to diverse fundamental phenomena such as confinement in quantum chromodynamics, phase transitions, and electron fractionalization in the quantum Hall regime. While such systems typically involve massive particles, optical photons can also interact with each other in a nonlinear medium. In practice, however, such interactions are often very weak. Here we describe a novel technique that allows the creation of a strongly correlated quantum gas of photons using one-dimensional optical systems with tight field confinement and coherent photon trapping techniques. The confinement enables the generation of large, tunable optical nonlinearities via the interaction of photons with a nearby cold atomic gas. In its extreme, we show that a quantum light field can undergo fermionization in such one-dimensional media, which can be probed via standard photon correlation measurements.

description: I examine whether the notion of transplanting a person's consciousness into a computer makes sense, no matter how advanced the technology. I conclude that it does, but arriving at this answer leads us to rethink our concept of selfhood in a way that can have far-reaching repercussions. For instance, it is to some extent a matter of choice whether we ascribe personhood to a computer or a human body, and no person can survive the passage of time because there is no personal identity over time.

description: We introduce a new mechanism for call auctions which are widely used in stock exchanges. By incorporating contingent claims (buy stock A, if selling stock B) into the price discovery process, we achieve a higher liquidity in call auctions and lower volatility after opening call auctions. We also show that present call auctions and the proposed mechanism have similar incentive properties.
Branching Rules for Satisfiability

description: Recent experience suggests that branching algorithms are among the most attractive for solving propositional satisfiability problems. A key factor in their success is the rule they use to decide on which variable to branch next. We attempt to explain and improve the performance of branching rules with an empirical model-building approach. One model is based on the rationale given for the Jeroslow-Wang rule, variations of which have performed well in recent work. The model is refuted by carefully designed computational experiments. A second model explains the success of the Jeroslow-Wang rule, makes other predictions confirmed by experiment, and leads to the design of branching rules that are clearly superior to Jeroslow-Wang.

description: The dissolution time (t_dis) of clusters in a tidal field does not scale with the ``classical'' expression for the relaxation time. First, the scaling with N, and hence cluster mass, is shallower due to the finite escape time of stars. Secondly, the cluster half-mass radius is of little importance. This is due to a balance between the relative tidal field strength and internal relaxation, which have an opposite effect on t_dis, but of similar magnitude. When external perturbations, such as encounters with giant molecular clouds (GMC) are important, t_dis for an individual cluster depends strongly on radius. The mean dissolution time for a population of clusters, however, scales in the same way with mass as for the tidal field, due to the weak dependence of radius on mass. The environmental parameters that determine t_dis are the tidal field strength and the density of molecular gas. We compare the empirically derived t_dis of clusters in six galaxies to theoretical predictions and argue that encounters with GMCs are the dominant destruction mechanism. Finally, we discuss a number of pitfalls in the derivations of t_dis from observations, such as incompleteness, with the cluster system of the SMC as particular example.

Branching on General Disjunctions

description: This paper considers a modification of the branch-and-cut algorithm for Mixed Integer Linear Programming where branching is performed on general disjunctions rather than on variables. We select promising branching disjunctions based on a heuristic measure of disjunction quality. This measure exploits the relation between branching disjunctions and intersection cuts. In this work, we focus on disjunctions defining the mixed integer Gomory cuts at an optimal basis of the linear programming relaxation. The procedure is tested on instances from the literature. Experiments show that, for a majority of the instances, the enumeration tree obtained by branching on these general disjunctions has a smaller size than the tree obtained by branching on variables, even when variable branching is performed using full strong branching.

description: Galactic halo neutralinos ($χ$) captured by the Sun or Earth produce high-energy neutrinos as end-products of various annihilation modes. These neutrinos can travel from the Sun or Earth cores to the neighborhood of underground detectors (``neutrino telescopes") where they can interact and produce upwardly-moving muons. We compute these muon fluxes in the context of the minimal $SU(5)$ supergravity model, and the no-scale and dilaton $SU(5)\times U(1)$ supergravity models. At present, with the Kamiokande 90\% C.L. upper limits on the flux, only a small fraction of the parameter space of the $SU(5)\times U(1)$ models is accessible for $m_χ\sim m_{\rm Fe}$, which in turn implies constraints for the lightest chargino mass around 100 GeV for a range of $\tanβ$ values. We also delineate the regions of parameter space that would be accessible with the improvements of experimental sensitivity expected in the near future at Gran Sasso, Super-Kamiokande, and other facilities such as DUMAND and AMANDA, currently under construction. We conclude that if neutralinos are present in the halo, then this technique can be used to eventually explore more than half of the allowed parameter space of these specific models, and more generally of a large class of supergravity models, in many ways surpassing the reach of traditional collider experiments.

description: Stochastics help develop a unified perception for natural phenomena and expel dichotomies like random vs. deterministic, as both randomness and predictability coexist and are intrinsic to natural systems. A natural system can be deterministic and random at the same time, depending on the prediction horizon and the time scale. The high complexity and uncertainty of natural processes has been long identified through observations as well as extended analyses of hydrometeorological processes such as temperature, humidity, surface wind, precipitation, atmospheric pressure, river discharges etc. All these processes seem to exhibit high unpredictability due to the clustering of events.
 Art is usually not considered a natural process, but other than a mix of determinism (e.g., certain rules have to be followed) it also includes stochasticity (e.g., creativity and inspiration). A stochastic analysis of works of art allows for the identification of a possible intrinsic uncertainty. This analysis includes the investigation of Hurst-Kolmogorov behaviour in the art of different historical periods (visual arts, music and poetry) and of similarities with natural processes. Based on the stochastic analysis of artworks, a method of image analysis is developed that is applied in analysing the landscape impact in cases of insertion of architectural elements in the natural landscape, formulating an indicator that can be used for analysing the impact of works of engineering on the landscape.
Bounded Ethicality and The Principle That "Ought" Implies "Can"

description: In this article we investigate a philosophical problem for normative business ethics theory suggested by a phenomenon that contemporary psychologists call “bounded ethicality,” which can be identified with the putative fact that well-intentioned people, constrained by psychological limitations, make ethical choices inconsistent with their own ethical beliefs and commitments. When one combines the idea that bounded ethicality is pervasive with the idea that a person morally ought to do something only if she can, it raises a doubt about the practical relevance of the moral principles that business ethics theory prescribes. We call this doubt the Radical Behavioral Challenge. It consists in the idea that people cannot generally conform to the normative ethical principles that business ethics theorists prescribe, and that these principles are therefore practically irrelevant. We answer the Radical Behavioral Challenge and explore normative implications of our answer.

description: Schwarzian quantum mechanics describes the collective IR mode of the SYK model and captures key features of 2D black hole dynamics. Exact results for its correlation functions were obtained in JHEP {\bf 1708}, 136 (2017) [arXiv:1705.08408]. We compare these results with bulk gravity expectations. We find that the semi-classical limit of the out-of-time-order (OTO) four-point function exactly matches with the scattering amplitude obtained from the Dray-'t Hooft shockwave $\mathcal{S}$-matrix. We show that the two point function of heavy operators reduces to the semi-classical saddle-point of the Schwarzian action. We also explain a previously noted match between the OTO four point functions and 2D conformal blocks. Generalizations to higher-point functions, and applications, are discussed.
