description: In biomedical science, analyzing treatment effect heterogeneity plays an essential role in assisting personalized medicine. The main goals of analyzing treatment effect heterogeneity include estimating treatment effects in clinically relevant subgroups and predicting whether a patient subpopulation might benefit from a particular treatment. Conventional approaches often evaluate the subgroup treatment effects via parametric modeling and can thus be susceptible to model mis-specifications. In this manuscript, we take a model-free semiparametric perspective and aim to efficiently evaluate the heterogeneous treatment effects of multiple subgroups simultaneously under the one-step targeted maximum-likelihood estimation (TMLE) framework. When the number of subgroups is large, we further expand this path of research by looking at a variation of the one-step TMLE that is robust to the presence of small estimated propensity scores in finite samples. From our simulations, our method demonstrates substantial finite sample improvements compared to conventional methods. In a case study, our method unveils the potential treatment effect heterogeneity of rs12916-T allele (a proxy for statin usage) in decreasing Alzheimer's disease risk.

description: Auf den Punkt ...
In den letzten Jahren sind zahlreiche Studiengänge entstanden, die für die Arbeit in Kindertageseinrichtungen qualifizieren. Die Entwicklung ist von Konflikten zwischen unterschiedlichen Interessengruppen geprägt – zwischen unterschiedlichen Bildungsinstitutionen (Hoch- und Fachschulen), zwischen den verschiedenen „alten“ und „neuen“ Qualifikationsgruppen und zwischen Hochschulen und Kita-Trägern.
Die Anrechnung von Qualifikationen aus der Erzieher/innen/ausbildung auf ein Studium wirft Probleme auf. Vor diesem Hintergrund haben grundständige Studiengänge an Bedeutung gewonnen im Vergleich zu Angeboten, die auf der Erzieher/innen/ausbildung aufbauen.
Das Spannungsfeld zwischen Theorie und Praxis spielt sowohl bei der Gestaltung der Studiengänge als auch bei der Akzeptanz der Absolvent/inn/en durch die Kita-Träger eine kritische Rolle.
Der Einsatz von Kindheitspädagog/inn/en in Kindertageseinrichtungen wird sowohl aus der Sicht von Studiengangsvertreter/inne/n als auch von Seiten vieler Kita-Träger unter dem Stichwort der Entwicklung „multiprofessioneller Teams“ als sinnvoll erachtet. Multiprofessionalität erfordert jedoch Organisationsentwicklungsprozesse und eine entsprechende Unterstützung der Kindertageseinrichtungen.

description: This study aims to determine the research mapping regarding the Total Asset Turnover (TATO) ratio in Islamic and Conventional Banking using a mix-method approach, namely the VOSviewer bibliometric study and Library Research. Data analysis techniques include: (1) mapping the distribution of journal publications around the TATO ratio; (2) mapping the results of the VOSviewer bibliometric visualization around the TATO ratio based on the number of clusters and their items; and (3) mapping research topics around the TATO ratio using a Library Research study. The results showed that: (1) based on the distribution of journal publications, there were 339 journal publications regarding the TATO ratio; (2) based on the mapping of the VOSviewer bibliometric study, the network visualization results around the TATO ratio are divided into 5 clusters and 104 topic items; (3) based on the mapping of Library Research studies, there are 26 topics around the influence of the TATO ratio. The implications and contributions of this research are to map research topics around TATO ratios in Islamic and Conventional Banking which are often or rarely researched by researchers so that they can be a reference for subsequent researchers.
Analysis of Three SU UMa-Type Dwarf Novae in the Kepler Field

description: We studied the Kepler light curves of three SU UMa-type dwarf novae. Both the background dwarf nova of KIC 4378554 and V516 Lyr showed a combination of precursor-main superoutburst, during which superhumps always developed on the fading branch of the precursor. This finding supports the thermal-tidal instability theory as the origin of the superoutburst. A superoutburst of V585 Lyr recorded by Kepler did not show a precursor outburst and the superhumps developed only after the maximum light, a first example in the Kepler data so far. Such a superoutburst is understood within the thermal-tidal instability model. The observation of V585 Lyr made the first clear Kepler detection of the positive period derivative commonly seen in the "stage B" superhumps in dwarf novae with short orbital periods. In all objects, there was no strong signature of a transition to the dominating stream impact-type component of superhumps, suggesting that there is no strong indication of an enhanced mass-transfer following the superoutburst. We have determined the orbital period of V516 Lyr to be 0.083999(8) d. In V516 Lyr, some of outbursts were double outbursts in a various degree. The preceding outburst in the double outburst was of the inside-out nature while the following one was of the outside-in nature. One of superoutbursts in V516 Lyr was preceded by a double precursor. The preceding precursor failed to trigger a superoutburst and the following precursor triggered a superoutburst by developing positive superhumps.

On Spectral Line Profiles in Type Ia Supernova Spectra

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: We present a detailed analysis of spectral line profiles in Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) spectra. We focus on the feature at ~3500 - 4000 A, which is commonly thought to be caused by blueshifted absorption of Ca H&K. Unlike some other spectral features in SN Ia spectra, this feature often has two overlapping (blue and red) components. It is accepted that the red component comes from photospheric calcium. However, it has been proposed that the blue component is caused by either high-velocity calcium (from either abundance or density enhancements above the photosphere of the SN) or Si II 3858. By looking at multiple data sets and model spectra, we conclude that the blue component of the Ca H&K feature is caused by Si II 3858 for most SNe Ia. The strength of the Si II 3858 feature varies strongly with the light-curve shape of a SN. As a result, the velocity measured from a single-Gaussian fit to the full line profile correlates with light-curve shape. The velocity of the Ca H&K component of the profile does not correlate with light-curve shape, contrary to previous claims. We detail the pitfalls of assuming that the blue component of the Ca H&K feature is caused by calcium, with implications for our understanding of SN Ia progenitors, explosions, and cosmology.

description: We perform both classical molecular dynamics simulations and beam model calculations to investigate the Young's modulus of kinked silicon nanowires (KSiNWs). The Young's modulus is found to be highly sensitive to the arm length of the kink and is essentially inversely proportional to the arm length. The mechanism underlying the size dependence is found to be the interplay between the kink angle potential and the arm length potential, where we obtain an analytic relationship between the Young's modulus and the arm length of the KSiNW. Our results provide insight into the application of this novel building block in nanomechanical devices.

description: An analysis of radiative decays of the neutrinos $ν_j\to ν_l γ$ is discussed in MSSM extensions with a vector like lepton generation. Specifically we compute neutrino decays arising from the exchange of charginos and charged sleptons where the photon is emitted by the charged particle in the loop. It is shown that while the lifetime of the neutrino decay in the Standard Model is $\sim 10^{43}$ yrs for a neutrino mass of 50 meV, the current lower limit from experiment from the analysis of the Cosmic Infrared Background is $\sim 10^{12}$ yrs and thus beyond the reach of experiment in the foreseeable future. However, in the extensions with a vector like lepton generation the lifetime for the decays can be as low as $\sim 10^{12}- 10^{14}$ yrs and thus within reach of future improved experiments. The effect of CP phases on the neutrino lifetime is also analyzed. It is shown that while both the magnetic and the electric transition dipole moments contribute to the neutrino lifetime, often the electric dipole moment dominates even for moderate size CP phases.

description: This article describes a citizen-science project conducted by the Spanish Virtual Observatory (SVO) to improve the orbits of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) using data from astronomical archives. The list of NEAs maintained at the Minor Planet Center (MPC) is checked daily to identify new objects or changes in the orbital parameters of already catalogued objects. Using NEODyS we compute the position and magnitude of these objects at the observing epochs of the 938 046 images comprising the Eigth Data Release of the Sloan Digitised Sky Survey (SDSS). If the object lies within the image boundaries and the magnitude is brighter than the limiting magnitude, then the associated image is visually inspected by the project's collaborators (the citizens) to confirm or discard the presence of the NEA. If confirmed, accurate coordinates and, sometimes, magnitudes are submitted to the MPC. Using this methodology, 3,226 registered users have made during the first fifteen months of the project more than 167,000 measurements which have improved the orbital elements of 551 NEAs (6% of the total number of this type of asteroids). Even more remarkable is the fact that these results have been obtained at zero cost to telescope time as NEAs were serendipitously observed while the survey was being carried out. This demonstrates the enormous scientific potential hidden in astronomical archives. The great reception of the project as well as the results obtained makes it a valuable and reliable tool for improving the orbital parameters of near-Earth asteroids.

description: In the theoretical part of this work, we will present the development of wind farms, their partition, as well as the operation of the most commonly used wind turbines. Special attention is paid to the stability of the power system, and the partition of the same is stated. In order to determine the impact of renewable sources on the power system, more precisely the impact of wind farms on the stability of the system, the IEEE 14 bus system was used. We performed the practical part of the work within the Matlab software package, more precisely using the PSAT tool. Based on the results obtained by the program analysis, the corresponding advantages of the operation of the system with the wind power plant in relation to the operation of the system before its connection were confirmed. A detailed conclusion is given at the end.

description: We study crystal growth inside an infinite octant on a cubic lattice. The growth proceeds through the deposition of elementary cubes into inner corners. After re-scaling by the characteristic size, the interface becomes progressively more deterministic in the long-time limit. Utilizing known results for the crystal growth inside a two-dimensional corner, we propose a hyperbolic partial differential equation for the evolution of the limiting shape. This equation is interpreted as a Hamilton-Jacobi equation which helps in finding an analytical solution. Simulations of the growth process are in excellent agreement with analytical predictions. We then study the evolution of the sub-leading correction to the volume of the crystal, the asymptotic growth of the variance of the volume of the crystal, and the total number of inner and outer corners. We also show how to generalize the results to arbitrary spatial dimension.

The Hartree-Fock exchange for correlated electrons is used to describe the correlated orbitals in the PAW framework. The calculated one-electron energies for electrons of spin up and down are very different. We have found that all the considered crystals are ferromagnetic.

description: Next generation radio telescopes will require orders of magnitude more computing power to provide a view of the universe with greater sensitivity. In the initial stages of the signal processing flow of a radio telescope, signal correlation is one of the largest challenges in terms of handling huge data throughput and intensive computations. We implemented a GPU cluster based software correlator with various data distribution models and give a systematic comparison based on testing results obtained using the Fornax supercomputer. By analyzing the scalability and throughput of each model, optimal approaches are identified across a wide range of problem sizes, covering the scale of next generation telescopes.

description: We present the results of simulated injections testing the first Bayesian search-pipeline capable of investigating the angular-structure of a gravitational-wave (GW) background influencing pulsar signals. A stochastic background of GWs from the incoherent superposition of many inspiraling supermassive black hole binaries at nHz frequencies is likely to be the dominant GW signal detectable by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs). Even though one might expect a background composed of a high-redshift cosmological population of sources to be fairly isotropic, deviations from isotropy may be indicative of local GW hotspots or some form of continuous anisotropy in the angular-distribution of GW-power. A GWB induces time-of-arrival deviations in pulsar signals which are correlated between separated pulsars. In an isotropic background this cross-correlation follows a distinctive relationship, known as the Hellings and Downs curve, that depends only on the angular separation of the pulsars. If the background is anisotropic, the cross-correlation is different, but predictable, and also depends on the absolute position of the pulsars. By simulating datasets containing GWBs with various anisotropic configurations, we have explored the prospects for constraining anisotropy using near future data. We find that at moderate to high signal to noise ratio the assumption of isotropy is no longer an appropriate description of the simulated background. Furthermore, we can recover the nature of the injected anisotropy in a Bayesian parameter-estimation search, and propose a prior on the anisotropy search-space motivated by the physicality of the implied distribution of sources.

Exploring the formation and evolutionary pathways of young stars and planetary systems at high precision

description: The star and planet formation process is one continuous event on scales from a giant molecular cloud to an individual circumstellar disk. There are a multitude of competing theories for the dominant physical mechanisms acting at each stage of this process, ranging from cloud conditions to how planet characteristics change over time. The properties of young stellar associations, the stars within them, and their planetary systems are crucial direct tests of these competing models. However, finding and characterizing isolated young systems is hard. Our best opportunity is to measure the ensemble age of a coeval group of stars, and observe systems within them to study the inherently intertwined star and planet formation and evolution process. In my dissertation, I use precision observations of young stars and planetary systems to explore their formation and evolutionary pathways. I first present a comprehensive census of the Taurus star forming region to reconstruct its complex star forming history. I use Gaia astrometry to reveal its highly substructured nature, identifying subgroups with age spreads indicating a prolonged star forming event, and kinematics indicating a typical turbulent environment and early dynamical evolution. Taurus is likely connected to a long-lasting, larger-scale galactic star forming event that can only be uncovered in the Gaia era. I then discuss exoplanet-related projects using high precision NIR spectroscopy from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder. Young stars are highly active, which introduces significant noise in spectroscopic observations. In a sample of young transiting planet hosts, I characterize the NIR helium spectral feature, which is an important probe of atmospheric mass loss and conditions in the stellar chromosphere. Stellar helium variability decreases with age, reflecting the higher activity levels in youth, but the line strength is constant beyond 100 Myr implying similar line formation conditions across the sample. Stellar variability should not preclude detection of mass loss at young ages. With this same data set, I search for giant planets exterior to the known transiting planets to measure their occurrence rate and constrain the typical dynamical history of a planetary system. I find three candidate signals of long-period companions, although the occurrence rate remains largely unconstrained. My dissertation exemplifies the power that precision observations of young stars has to improve our understanding of the complicated and interrelated processes of star and planet formation and evolution.

description: To develop a better understanding of the behavior at a pipe-soil interface under axial loading, this study investigated the effects of pipe curvature, time, and cyclic loading through the use of model tests. These tests were performed as part of two studies: 1) an investigation of the pipe-soil response for axially loaded flowlines and 2) an investigation on the effects of cyclic loading on pipe piles driven in sand. To study the flowline-soil interactions, flat and curved model surfaces were installed horizontally in both highly plastic marine clay from the Gulf of Mexico and carbonaceous silty sand from the North West Shelf in Australia. The axial shear resistance between the soils and surfaces was measured using tilt table tests, cyclic medium-scale model pipe tests, and cyclic centrifuge-scale model pipe tests. By analyzing these tests, several conclusions were made: 1) no evidence of a wedging factor was observed, 2) a projected contact area can be used to interpret the stress distribution at the interface, 3) aging can increase the axial resistance but is lost with additional cyclic loading, and 4) the pipe-soil contact area may decrease with cyclic loading. To study the pipe-soil interactions of small-diameter piles in sand, piles were driven at Hornsby Bend in Austin, Texas and at Allen Harbor in North Kingston, Rhode Island. The capacity of the piles was predicted based on cone penetration test results and various methodologies. One group of piles was tested after about one week of aging and the rest were tested after aging for more than 70 days at Allen Harbor, or more than 140 days at Hornsby Bend. Three types of tests were performed: monotonic tensile load tests, low-frequency cyclic tests (to simulate normal operating conditions), and high-frequency cyclic tests (to simulate long-term operational effects). The main conclusions from this work are: 1) two of the five design methods provided estimates that were closest to the measured pile capacities, 2) the piles aged at Hornsby Bend and Allen Harbor experienced aging factors of about two and five, respectively, 3) no cyclic degradation or post-cyclic changes were observed at either site, 4) there were no signs of an interaction between aging and cyclic loading.

description: Presentation given by Dr Samantha P. Kanza on behalf of PSDI at Lab of the Future 2023. Abstract: Making improvements to digitisation is a two-stage problem, we need to encourage people to digitise more, and we need better systems to manage the plethora of electronic data once it makes its way into digital form. This is a very complex matter that cannot be solved by one piece of software. Too many projects and systems look to re-invent the wheel without considering the real issues at hand, barriers to usage or user requirements/barriers. This presentation will explore what users really want, the barriers to digitisation and discuss how we can improve digitisation using the wide array of software packages available today.

description: MLPQNA stands for Multi Layer Perceptron with Quasi Newton Algorithm and it is a machine learning method which can be used to cope with regression and classification problems on complex and massive data sets. In this paper we give the formal description of the method and present the results of its application to the evaluation of photometric redshifts for quasars. The data set used for the experiment was obtained by merging four different surveys (SDSS, GALEX, UKIDSS and WISE), thus covering a wide range of wavelengths from the UV to the mid-infrared. The method is able i) to achieve a very high accuracy; ii) to drastically reduce the number of outliers and catastrophic objects; iii) to discriminate among parameters (or features) on the basis of their significance, so that the number of features used for training and analysis can be optimized in order to reduce both the computational demands and the effects of degeneracy. The best experiment, which makes use of a selected combination of parameters drawn from the four surveys, leads, in terms of DeltaZnorm (i.e. (zspec-zphot)/(1+zspec)), to an average of DeltaZnorm = 0.004, a standard deviation sigma = 0.069 and a Median Absolute Deviation MAD = 0.02 over the whole redshift range (i.e. zspec <= 3.6), defined by the 4-survey cross-matched spectroscopic sample. The fraction of catastrophic outliers, i.e. of objects with photo-z deviating more than 2sigma from the spectroscopic value is < 3%, leading to a sigma = 0.035 after their removal, over the same redshift range. The method is made available to the community through the DAMEWARE web application.

description: We introduce a "hyperbicycle" ansatz for quantum codes which gives the hypergraph-product (generalized toric) codes by Tillich and Zémor and generalized bicycle codes by MacKay et al. as limiting cases. The construction allows for both the lower and the upper bounds on the minimum distance; they scale as a square root of the block length. Many of thus defined codes have finite rate and a limited-weight stabilizer generators, an analog of classical low-density parity check (LDPC) codes. Compared to the hypergraph-product codes, hyperbicycle codes generally have wider range of parameters; in particular, they can have higher rate while preserving the (estimated) error threshold.

Why glass elasticity affects the thermodynamics and fragility of super-cooled liquids

description: Super-cooled liquids are characterized by their fragility: the slowing down of the dynamics under cooling is more sudden and the jump of specific heat at the glass transition is generally larger in fragile liquids than in strong ones. Despite the importance of this quantity in classifying liquids, explaining what aspects of the microscopic structure controls fragility remains a challenge. Surprisingly, experiments indicate that the linear elasticity of the glass -- a purely local property of the free energy landscape -- is a good predictor of fragility. In particular, materials presenting a large excess of soft elastic modes, the so-called boson peak, are strong. This is also the case for network liquids near the rigidity percolation, known to affect elasticity. Here we introduce a model of the glass transition based on the assumption that particles can organize locally into distinct configurations, which are coupled spatially via elasticity. The model captures the mentioned observations connecting elasticity and fragility. We find that materials presenting an abundance of soft elastic modes have little elastic frustration: energy is insensitive to most directions in phase space, leading to a small jump of specific heat. In this framework strong liquids turn out to lie the closest to a critical point associated with a rigidity or jamming transition, and their thermodynamic properties are related to the problem of number partitioning and to Hopfield nets in the limit of small memory.

description: We perform classical molecular dynamics simulations to demonstrate the application of kinked silicon nanowires (KSiNWs) as nanoscale springs. The spring-like oscillation in gigahertz frequency range is successfully actuated using a similar procedure as the actuation of a classical mass spring oscillator. We detect the spring-like mechanical oscillation and some other low-frequency oscillations by the energy spectrum analysis, where a dimensional crossover phenomenon is observed for the transverse mode in KSiNWs with decreasing aspect ratio. Our findings shed light on the elastic properties of the KSiNW and open a way for its application in nanomechanical devices.

description: We consider the notions of the replicators, including the duplicator and triplicator, of a binary operad. As in the closely related notions of di-Var-algebra and tri-Var-algebra in [14], they provide a general operadic definition for the recent constructions of replicating the operations of algebraic structures. We show that taking replicators is in Koszul dual to taking successors in [3] for binary quadratic operads and is equivalent to taking the white product with certain operads such as Perm. We also relate the replicators to the actions of average operators.

description: Auf den Punkt ...
Als Folge des demografischen Wandels wird seit einigen Jahren ein sich verschärfender Fachkräftemangel prognostiziert. Befürchtet wird dabei, dass das altersbedingte Ausscheiden vieler IT-Experten und Ingenieure, insbesondere in den Entwicklungsbereichen, nicht kompensiert werden kann.
Analysiert man die betriebliche Beschäftigung dieser Berufsgruppen entlang der Arbeitslebensphasen, so zeigt sich aktuell, dass die Unternehmen die Potenziale an hochqualifizierten Fachkräften in der Phase ihres Berufseinstiegs weitgehend ausschöpfen.
In der mittleren Erwerbsphase differenzieren sich für Männer und Frauen unterschiedliche Beschäftigungsmuster aus. Viele Frauen, insbesondere Ingenieurinnen, verlassen ihren Beruf. Im späteren Erwerbsabschnitt sehen sich vor allem IT-Fachkräfte mit einem erhöhten Erwerbslosigkeitsrisiko konfrontiert.
Familienfreundlichere Leistungsarrangements im mittleren Erwerbsabschnitt könnten dazu beitragen, dass mehr weibliche Fachkräfte ihre Tätigkeit durchgängig ausüben. Besonders im IT-Bereich könnten durch systematischere Weiterbildung und Gesundheitsprävention die Beschäftigungspotenziale erfahrener Mitarbeitender besser erhalten und so ein vorzeitiges Ausscheiden verhindert werden.

description: A possibility to greatly enhance frequency-conversion efficiency of stimulated Raman scattering is shown by making use of extraordinary properties of three-wave mixing of ordinary and backward waves. Such processes are commonly attributed to negative-index plasmonic metamaterials. This work demonstrates the possibility to replace such metamaterials that are very challenging to engineer by readily available crystals which support elastic waves with contra-directed phase and group velocities. The main goal of this work is to investigate specific properties of indicated nonlinear optical process in short pulse regime and to show that it enables elimination of fundamental detrimental effect of fast damping of optical phonons on the process concerned. Among the applications is the possibility of creation of a family of unique photonic devices such as unidirectional Raman amplifiers and femtosecond pulse shapers with greatly improved operational properties.

description: Consideration here is a generalized $μ$-type integrable equation, which can be regarded as a generalization to both the $μ$-Camassa-Holm and modified $μ$-Camassa-Holm equations. It is shown that the proposed equation is formally integrable with the Lax-pair and the bi-Hamiltonian structure and its scale limit is an integrable model of hydrodynamical systems describing short capillary-gravity waves. Local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in the suitable Sobolev space is established by the viscosity method. Existence of peaked traveling-wave solutions and formation of singularities of solutions for the equation are investigated. It is found that the equation admits a single peaked soliton and multi-peakon solutions. The effects of varying $μ$-Camassa-Holm and modified $μ$-Camassa-Holm nonlocal nonlinearities on blow-up criteria and wave breaking are illustrated in detail. Our analysis relies on the method of characteristics and conserved quantities and is proceeded with a priori differential estimates.
