description: Controlling the properties of single photons is essential for a wide array of emerging optical quantum technologies spanning quantum sensing, quantum computing, and quantum communications. Essential components for these technologies include single photon sources, quantum memories, waveguides, and detectors. The ideal spectral operating parameters (wavelength and bandwidth) of these components are rarely similar; thus, frequency conversion and spectral control are key enabling steps for component hybridization. Here we perform signal processing of single photons by coherently manipulating their spectra via a modified quantum memory. We store 723.5 nm photons, with 4.1 nm bandwidth, in a room-temperature diamond crystal; upon retrieval we demonstrate centre frequency tunability over 4.2 times the input bandwidth, and bandwidth modulation between 0.5 to 1.9 times the input bandwidth. Our results demonstrate the potential for diamond, and Raman memories in general, to be an integrated platform for photon storage and spectral conversion.

Influence of Genetic Variance on Occupational Exposure to 1,6-Hexamethylene Diisocyanate Isocyanurate
Creators: name: Taylor, Laura

description: Exposure to diisocyanates is a leading cause of occupational asthma around the world. We investigated the potential of genetic polymorphic markers to affect urine biomarker trisaminohexyl isocyanurate (TAHI) levels in 33 automotive spray-painters exposed to 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) isocyanurate, an oligomer of HDI. Genome-wide association analysis using a false discovery rate of q<0.20 indicated that one single nucleotide polymorphic (SNP) marker, rs12955846, was significantly associated with urine TAHI levels after controlling for four covariates (current smoking status, ethnicity, and inhalation and skin exposure to HDI isocyanurate). Linear mixed effects model showed that this SNP explained 70% of the biomarker variance. In bioinformatics evaluation, we identified and evaluated coding genes and potential regulatory elements that are proximal to the ten most influential SNPs. The methodology presented here has the potential to inform us on individual susceptibility factors that may affect biomarker levels of HDI isocyanurate exposure.
DUNE: A Machine Learning Deep UNet++ based Ensemble Approach to Monthly, Seasonal and Annual Climate Forecasting

description: Capitalizing on the recent availability of ERA5 monthly averaged long-term data records of mean atmospheric and climate fields based on high-resolution reanalysis, deep-learning architectures offer an alternative to physics-based daily numerical weather predictions for subseasonal to seasonal (S2S) and annual means. A novel Deep UNet++-based Ensemble (DUNE) neural architecture is introduced, employing multi-encoder-decoder structures with residual blocks. When initialized from a prior month or year, this architecture produced the first AI-based global monthly, seasonal, or annual mean forecast of 2-meter temperatures (T2m) and sea surface temperatures (SST). ERA5 monthly mean data is used as input for T2m over land, SST over oceans, and solar radiation at the top of the atmosphere for each month of 40 years to train the model. Validation forecasts are performed for an additional two years, followed by five years of forecast evaluations to account for natural annual variability. AI-trained inference forecast weights generate forecasts in seconds, enabling ensemble seasonal forecasts. Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Anomaly Correlation Coefficient (ACC), and Heidke Skill Score (HSS) statistics are presented globally and over specific regions. These forecasts outperform persistence, climatology, and multiple linear regression for all domains. DUNE forecasts demonstrate comparable statistical accuracy to NOAA's operational monthly and seasonal probabilistic outlook forecasts over the US but at significantly higher resolutions. RMSE and ACC error statistics for other recent AI-based daily forecasts also show superior performance for DUNE-based forecasts. The DUNE model's application to an ensemble data assimilation cycle shows comparable forecast accuracy with a single high-resolution model, potentially eliminating the need for retraining on extrapolated datasets.

description: Most research on adaptive decision-making takes a strategy-first approach, proposing a method of solving a problem and then examining whether it can be implemented in the brain and in what environments it succeeds. We present a method for studying strategy development based on computational evolution that takes the opposite approach, allowing strategies to develop in response to the decision-making environment via Darwinian evolution. We apply this approach to a dynamic decision-making problem where artificial agents make decisions about the source of incoming information. In doing so, we show that the complexity of the brains and strategies of evolved agents are a function of the environment in which they develop. More difficult environments lead to larger brains and more information use, resulting in strategies resembling a sequential sampling approach. Less difficult environments drive evolution toward smaller brains and less information use, resulting in simpler heuristic-like strategies.

description: This work investigates the scattering matrix elements during different Saharan dust outbreaks over Granada (South-East Spain) in 2022 using the Polarized Imaging Nephelometer (PI-Neph PIN100, GRASP-Earth). The PI-Neph is a unique instrument capable of measuring continuously the phase function and polarized phase function (F11 and -F12/F11) at three different wavelengths (405, 515 and 660 nm) with 1° resolution. Extreme dust events (PM10 concentration above 1000 µgm-3) occurring in March 2022 are compared with more frequent and moderate events registered in summer 2022 (PM10 concentration between 50 and 100 µgm-3). For F11 there are no remarkable differences between extreme and moderate events. However, results of -F12/F11 show large differences between extreme and moderate events, especially for the 405 nm wavelength. These differences are also observed when studying the temporal evolutions during the extreme events and reveal that -F12/F11 patterns similar to laboratory measurements occurred during the more intense periods of dust influence. Other aerosol optical properties were derived from the PI-Neph, such as the asymmetry parameter (g), the fraction of backscattered light (Bs) and the lidar ratio (LR). In general, g and Bs show typical values (g > 0.65 and Bs ~ 0.1) for both extreme and moderate Saharan dust events. However, the LR shows more variable values for the different dust events, ranging from 20 to 60 sr-1. The combination with additional in-situ instrumentation allowed to obtain scattering (SAE) and absorption (AAE) Ångström exponents and to conduct a typing classification that revealed extreme dust events as pure dust while moderate dust events were classified as a mixture of dust with urban background pollution. In addition, model simulations with the Generalized Retrieval of Atmosphere and Surface Properties (GRASP) code reproduce well the PI-Neph measurements. Therefore, our results confirm that differences in the phase matrix elements of Saharan dust outbreaks of varying intensity can be explained by the mixing conditions of dust with the background particles, which varies from almost pure dust particles during extreme events, to a mixture of dust with local pollution during moderate events.

description: We use a detailed numerical model of stimulated thermal Rayleigh scattering to compute mode instability thresholds in Tm$^{3+}$-doped fiber amplifiers. The fiber amplifies 2040 nm light using a 790 nm pump. The cross-relaxation process is strong, permitting power efficiencies of 60%. The predicted instability thresholds are compared with those in similar Yb$^{3+}$-doped fiber amplifiers with 976 nm pump and 1060 nm signal, and are found to be higher, even though the heat load is much higher in Tm-doped amplifiers. The higher threshold in the Tm-doped fiber is attributed to its longer signal wavelength, and to stronger gain saturation, due in part to cross-relaxation heating.

Subjects: Water resources development--Management

description: In this study, we estimate nitrate concentrations across the state of North Carolina to improve monitoring and management of nitrogen over-enrichment. Riverine nitrate concentrations were estimated at times and locations where it was not observed using a combination of land use regression and space/time geostatistics. We demonstrate how the two methods are complimentary, with an increase in R2 from 0.21 with the land use regression only model to R2 0.73 with the combined model. The time-averaged land use regression model identified source variables including (1) Developed Areas (2) Manure Mass (3) NPDES Point Sources (4) Septic Sewer System Density (5) Wastewater Treatment Residual Fields; Waste Treatment Residuals have not commonly been identified previously as important at a large area scale. Maps of riverine nitrate concentrations show strong spatial patterns, with higher concentrations near the urban areas in the Piedmont region and lower concentrations in the Blue Ridge and Plains regions.

Concurrent conductance and transition voltage spectroscopy study of scanning tunneling microscopy vacuum junctions. Does it unravel new physics?

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We show that the conductance ($G$) and transition voltage ($V_t$) spectroscopy data for standard vacuum nanogaps reported in the preceding paper by Sotthewes \emph{et al} cannot be understood within the framework of the existing theories/models whatever realistic effects are incorporates. However, if we include an additional ("ghost") current, the trends of the dependencies of $G$ and $V_t$ on the nanogap size $d$ can be explained. The ghost current is very small. Therefore, effects related to the ghost current can only be revealed at larger $d$'s, where the ghost current becomes comparable to or overcomes the tunneling current. Although we are not able to unravel the origin of this ghost contribution, we can and do refer to experimental $G$- and $V_t$-data reported for molecular junctions, which exhibit similarities to the presently considered vacuum nanojunctions. Analyzing notable difficulties related to the regime assigned as transport via hopping, we speculate that a ghost contribution may also exist in molecular junctions.

Rationale: Journals that encourage manuscript submissions from students and residents provide a great opportunity to share research, learn about the publishing process and improve one’s CV, however a comprehensive scoping review examining the quality and publishing practices of this category of publications has never been conducted Unlike journals from other disciplines which are specifically ranked and appraised in indices such such as Scopus and Web of Science, student-run journals are not appraised and ranked in this way using a central location with bibliometrics and other publishing data. This scoping-review aims to create a comprehensive overview of existing student or trainee operated medical or health science journals published internationally. Titles will be analyzed for their publishing practices and policies to indicate and summarize their overall quality and publishing models.

Periodic Solutions of Wave Propagation in a Strongly Nonlinear Monatomic Chain and Their Novel Stability and Bifurcation Analyses
Creators: name: Zhang, Bingxu

Publisher: name: ASME
Year: 2024

description: A modified incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method is used to determine periodic solutions of wave propagation in discrete, strongly nonlinear, periodic structures, and solutions are found to be in a two-dimensional hyperplane. A novel method based on the Hill's method is developed to analyze stability and bifurcations of periodic solutions. A simplified model of wave propagation in a strongly nonlinear monatomic chain is examined in detail. The study reveals the amplitude-dependent property of nonlinear wave propagation in the structure and relationships among the frequency, the amplitude, the propagation constant, and the nonlinear stiffness. Numerous bifurcations are identified for the strongly nonlinear chain. Attenuation zones for wave propagation that are determined using an analysis of results from the modified IHB method and directly using the modified IHB method are in excellent agreement. Two frequency formulae for weakly and strongly monatomic chains are obtained by a fitting method for results from the modified IHB method, and the one for a weakly nonlinear monatomic chain is consistent with the result from a perturbation method in the literature.

description: Sr2IrO4 is a spin-orbit coupled insulator with an antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition at TN=240 K. We report results of a comprehensive study of single-crystal Sr2Ir1-xTbxO4. This study found that mere 3% (x=0.03) tetravalent Tb4+(4f7) substituting for Ir4+ (rather than Sr2+) completely suppresses the long-range collinear AFM transition but retains the insulating state, leading to a phase diagram featuring a decoupling of magnetic interactions and charge gap. The insulating state at x=0.03 is characterized by an unusually large specific heat at low temperatures and an incommensurate magnetic state having magnetic peaks at (0.95, 0, 0) and (0, 0.95, 0) in the neutron diffraction, suggesting a spiral or spin density wave order. It is apparent that Tb doping effectively changes the relative strength of the SOI and the tetragonal CEF and enhances the Hund's rule coupling that competes with the SOI, and destabilizes the AFM state. However, the disappearance of the AFM accompanies no metallic state chiefly because an energy level mismatch for the Ir and Tb sites weakens charge carrier hopping and renders a persistent insulating state. This work highlights an unconventional correlation between the AFM and insulating states in which the magnetic transition plays no critical role in the formation of the charge gap in the iridate.

Separating from the school: An analytical and empirical study of the legal entity structures of Football Bowl Subdivision athletic departments
Creators: name: Washington, Ernest
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2013

description: In an era of collegiate athletics where there is a constant push for bigger stadiums and nicer facilities but yet increased scrutiny from a financial and legal standpoint, having a solid athletics department is extremely crucial. From a legal standpoint, most athletic departments are a separate legal entity from the school, while other athletics departments such as The University of Michigan and The University of Notre Dame are not. Are most athletics departments better off as a separate legal entity from the school or are The University of Michigan and other schools - who are not separate entities - better off legally? Several legal factors are explored in making this determination. While the Eleventh Amendment bars suits against state-funded universities arising out of athletics programs, what about athletics departments that are separate legal entities? Does the Arm of the State Doctrine - which provides sovereign immunity to entities created by state governments that operate as alter egos or instrumentalities of the states - afford these separate legal entities the same protection? In terms of Respondeat Superior, are there issues with athletics departments that are separate legal entities? How much to the bylaws of the school play a role in this determination? In terms of the income tax structure and revenue generation, are there overwhelming benefits to athletics departments that are separate legal entities that would offset any other potential liabilities that might occur as a result of an athletics department being a separate legal entity? The goal of this research was to determine whether or not an athletics department is better off as a separate legal entity from the school. There might be one concrete answer that can apply to all athletics departments; there might be one answer for private schools and one answer for private schools; or the answer might completely depend on factors unique to each specific school. With so much money at stake with college athletics and the increased public scrutiny if athletics departments find themselves in legal issues, the way an athletics department is structured possesses the ability to significantly impact how it operates and how much profit it can obtain.

‘Successfully’ Aging ‘Alone’?: Unequal Global Opportunities and Rising Risks in Family-Based Models of Care Cross-Nationally
Creators: name: Mair, Christine A.
Publisher: name: Oxford University Press
Year: 2024

description: For the first time in human history, older adults will outnumber children and a substantial and growing proportion will live alone and lack one or more nuclear family tie. Such unprecedented shifts require a reevaluation of existing models of “successful aging”, particularly in terms of long-term care policies.This paper draws on country-level data from multiple publicly available sources (e.g., World Bank, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, Our World in Data, and the World Values Survey) to examine cross-national patterns of development, health, demography, resources and policies, and cultural values in low-, middle-, and high-income countries.Although there exists substantial heterogeneity across countries, country-level patterns illustrate the economic privilege of living alone and the dominance of “successful aging” opportunities in high income countries. Cultural values about family reflect standard patterns of economic development, yet friendship emerges as a particularly consistent global value. At the country-level, living alone and health are associated in higher income countries with lower within-country inequality.Aging “alone” is a risk factor in some contexts, yet a marker of privilege in others. Models of “successful aging” are largely unobtainable in lower income countries or high inequality countries, and therefore require a thorough incorporation of global realities, or final abandonment in favor of more nuanced structural perspectives. Long-term care policies that assume the presence of family will yield increasing risk over time across all global contexts and represent a key vulnerability in the future of healthy aging policy.

description: We investigate the localization properties of atoms moving in a three-dimensional optical lattice in the presence of an uncorrelated disorder potential having the same probability distribution $P(V)$ as laser speckles. We find that the disorder-averaged (single-particle) Green's function, calculated via the coherent potential approximation, is in very good agreement with exact numerics. Using the transfer-matrix method, we compute the phase diagram in the energy-disorder plane and show that its peculiar shape can be understood from the self-consistent theory of localization. In particular, we recover the large asymmetry in the position of the mobility edge for blue and red speckles, which was recently observed numerically for correlated speckle potentials.

description: Extensive studies on thin films indicated a generic cubic current-voltage $I-V$ dependence as a salient feature of charge transport by tunneling. A quick glance at $I-V$ data for molecular junctions suggests a qualitatively similar behavior. This would render model-based studies almost irrelevant, since, whatever the model, its parameters can always be adjusted to fit symmetric (asymmetric) $I-V$ curves characterized by two (three) expansion coefficients. Here, we systematically examine popular models based on tunneling barrier or tight-binding pictures and demonstrate that, for a quantitative description at biases of interest ($V$ slightly higher than the transition voltage $V_t$), cubic expansions do not suffice. A detailed collection of analytical formulae as well as their conditions of applicability are presented to facilitate experimentalists colleagues to process and interpret their experimental data by obtained by measuring currents in molecular junctions. We discuss in detail the limits of applicability of the various models and emphasize that uncritically adjusting model parameters to experiment may be unjustified because the values deduced in this way may fall in ranges rendering a specific model invalid or incompatible to ab initio estimates. We exemplify with the benchmark case of oligophenylene-based junctions, for which results of ab initio quantum chemical calculations are also reported. As a specific issue, we address the impact of the spatial potential profile and show that it is not notable up to biases V somewhat larger than V_t, unlike at higher biases, where it may be responsible for negative differential resistance effects.

description: Parallel to feasibility and cost-effectiveness, acceptability is evident in debates concerning the choice of healthcare interventions and policies. The concept of healthcare acceptability cuts across a wide spectrum of health sciences including environmental health. Patients and communities are more likely participate in environmental health interventions perceived to be more acceptable. Nevertheless, acceptability remains confusing without a collective definition in existing literature. This study aimed to create a consensus among experts in order to: (1) propose a common definition; and (2) provide a shared conceptual framework of healthcare acceptability.

description: We present and describe the astro-photometric catalog of more than 800,000 sources found in the Hubble Tarantula Treasury Project (HTTP). HTTP is a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury program designed to image the entire 30 Doradus region down to the sub-solar (~0.5 solar masses) mass regime using the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS). We observed 30 Doradus in the near ultraviolet (F275W, F336W), optical (F555W, F658N, F775W), and near infrared (F110W, F160W) wavelengths. The stellar photometry was measured using point-spread function (PSF) fitting across all the bands simultaneously. The relative astrometric accuracy of the catalog is 0.4 mas. The astro-photometric catalog, results from artificial star experiments and the mosaics for all the filters are available for download. Color-magnitude diagrams are presented showing the spatial distributions and ages of stars within 30 Dor as well as in the surrounding fields. HTTP provides the first rich and statistically significant sample of intermediate and low mass pre-main sequence candidates and allows us to trace how star formation has been developing through the region. The depth and high spatial resolution of our analysis highlight the dual role of stellar feedback in quenching and triggering star formation on the giant HII region scale. Our results are consistent with stellar sub-clustering in a partially filled gaseous nebula that is offset towards our side of the Large Magellanic Cloud.

description: Because as governor of Texas Rick Perry holds the same position that George W. Bush held before becoming president, it is difficult not to compare the two men. It is also apparent that despite both being conservative Republicans with abrasive styles and palpable contempt for educated liberals and having both having served as governor of Texas, the two are quite different. Those differences provide some interesting insight both the nature of Republican politics and our political culture more generally.

An important impact of the molecule-electrode couplings asymmetry on the efficiency of bias-driven redox processes in molecular junctions

description: Two recent experimental (Li, J.~\emphj{et al}, \emph{Proc.\ Natl.\ Acad.\ Sci.\ U.~S.~A.} {\bf 2014}, 111, 1282-1287) and theoretical studies (Bâldea, I, \emph{Phys.\ Chem.\ Chem.\ Phys.}\ {\bf 2014}, 16, 25942-25949) have addressed the problem of tuning molecular charge and vibrational properties of single molecules embedded in nanojunctions. These are molecular characteristics escaping so far to an efficient experimental control in broad ranges. Here, we present a general argument demonstrating why, out of various experimental platforms possible, those wherein active molecules are asymmetrically coupled to electrodes are to be preferred to those symmetrically coupled for achieving a(n almost) complete redox process, and why electrochemical environment has advantages over "dry" setups. This study aims at helping to nanofabricate molecular junctions using the most appropriate platforms enabling the broadest possible bias-driven control of the redox state and vibrational modes of single molecules linked to electrodes.

Cycle structure of autotopisms of quasigroups and Latin squares

description: An autotopism of a Latin square is a triple $(α,β,γ)$ of permutations such that the Latin square is mapped to itself by permuting its rows by $α$, columns by $β$, and symbols by $γ$. Let $\mathrm{Atp}(n)$ be the set of all autotopisms of Latin squares of order $n$. Whether a triple $(α,β,γ)$ of permutations belongs to $\mathrm{Atp}(n)$ depends only on the cycle structures of $α$, $β$ and $γ$. We establish a number of necessary conditions for $(α,β,γ)$ to be in $\mathrm{Atp}(n)$, and use them to determine $\mathrm{Atp}(n)$ for $n\le17$. For general $n$ we determine if $(α,α,α)\in\mathrm{Atp}(n)$ (that is, if $α$ is an automorphism of some quasigroup of order $n$), provided that either $α$ has at most three cycles other than fixed points or that the non-fixed points of $α$ are in cycles of the same length.
For Obama, Winning Reelection and Governing Effectively Are Not Conflicting Goals

description: After serving one year as president, Barack Obama gave an interview in which he stated that he would "rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president." This is a strange, but revealing statement for a president to make. On one level, it is meaningless, because asserting that it is more important to do one's job well than simply get reelected is something that politicians are expected to do. It is the equivalent of an athlete saying that winning is more important than individual achievements.
