description: We perform first-principles quantum simulations of dissociation of trapped, spatially inhomogeneous Bose-Einstein condensates of molecular dimers. Specifically, we study spatial pair correlations of atoms produced in dissociation after time of flight. We find that the observable correlations may significantly degrade in systems with spatial inhomogeneity compared to the predictions of idealized uniform models. We show how binning of the signal can enhance the detectable correlations and lead to the violation of the classical Cauchy-Schwartz inequality and relative number squeezing.

description: We propose a simple model where a {\it gauge invariant inflaton} is responsible for cosmic inflation and generates the seed for structure formation, while its relic {\it thermal} abundance explains the missing matter of the universe in the form of cold dark matter. The inflaton self-coupling also explains the observed neutrino masses. All the virtues can be attained in a minimal extension of the Standard Model gauge group around the TeV scale. We can also unveil these properties of an inflaton in forthcoming space and ground based experiments.

description: We find that peaks in the autocorrelation of angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy data of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ in the superconducting state show dispersive behavior for binding energies smaller than the maximum superconducting energy gap. For higher energies, though, a striking anomalous dispersion is observed that is a consequence of the interaction of the electrons with collective excitations. In contrast, in the pseudogap phase, we only observe dispersionless behavior for the autocorrelation peaks. The implications of our findings in regards to Fourier transformed scanning tunneling spectroscopy data are discussed.

description: Time-resolved x-ray absorption spectroscopy monitors the transient species generated by one-photon detachment of an electron from aqueous bromide. Hydrated bromine atoms with a lifetime of ca. 17 ns were observed, nearly half of which react with excess Br- to form Br2-. The K-edge spectra of the Br atom and Br2- anion exhibit distinctive resonant transitions that are absent for the Br- precursor. The absorption spectra indicate that the solvent shell around a Br0 atom is defined primarily by hydrophobic interactions, in agreement with a Monte Carlo simulation of the solvent structure.

description: Aims. This work provides an analysis of how the galaxy number density of the input data affects the filaments detected with the Bisous filament finder and gives estimates of the reliability of the method itself to assess the robustness of the results. Methods. We applied the Bisous filament finder to MultiDark-Galaxies data, using various magnitude cuts from the catalogue to study the effects of different galaxy number densities on the results and different parameters of the model. We compared the structures by the fraction of galaxies in filaments and the volume filled by filaments, and we analysed the similarities between the results from different cuts based on the overlap between detected filamentary structures. The filament finder was also applied to the exact same data 200 times with the same parameters to study the stochasticity of the results and the correlation between different runs was calculated. Results. Multiple samples show that galaxies in filaments have preferentially higher luminosity. We found that when a galaxy is in a filament there is a 97% chance that the same galaxy would be in a filament with even more complete input data and about 85% of filaments are persistent when detecting the filamentary network with higher-density input data. Lower galaxy number density inputs mean the Bisous model finds fewer filaments, but the filaments found are persistent even if we use more complete input data for the detection. We calculated the correlation coefficient between 200 Bisous runs on the exact same input, which is 0.98. Conclusions. This study confirms that increased number density of galaxies is important to obtain a more complete picture of the cosmic web. To overcome the limitation of the spectroscopic surveys, we will develop the Bisous model further to apply this tool to combined spectroscopic and narrow-band photometric redshift surveys, such as the J-PAS.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Samples of the rougbhead grenadier, Macrourus berglax L., were taken frorn several locations on East and West Greenland waters and the Norwegian Sea. The samples were screened by starch-gel electrophoresis to reveal polymorphic systems to be applied in studies of the genetic structure of the species. A number of isozyrne systems are described. Seven enzyme loci (GP3DH-1*, GPI-1 *, GPI-2*, LDH-1*, LDH-2*, MDH* andPGM*) displayed sufficient activity and allele variation to be used in the routine work. Of those seven polymorphic loci, the GPI-1 * and PGM* loci displayed great variation. Test of accordance between observed distributions of phenotypes and expected Hardy-Weinberg distributions as well as tests of heterogeneity among sampling sites, were performed using chi-square tests. No genetic differences within the three main areas (West-, East- Greenland and the Norwegian Sea) were revealed, while significant differences were found among those areas showing that the rougbhead grenadier in the North Atlantic is composed of different stock units with their own gene pools rather than belonging to one panmictic population.

description: Two-loop MHV amplitudes in planar ${\cal N} = 4$ supersymmetric Yang Mills theory are known to exhibit many intriguing forms of cluster-algebraic structure. We leverage this structure to upgrade the symbols of the eight- and nine-particle amplitudes to complete analytic functions. This is done by systematically projecting onto the components of these amplitudes that take different functional forms, and matching each component to an ansatz of multiple polylogarithms with negative cluster-coordinate arguments. The remaining additive constant can be determined analytically by comparing the collinear limit of each amplitude to known lower-multiplicity results. We also observe that the nonclassical part of each of these amplitudes admits a unique decomposition in terms of a specific $A_3$ cluster polylogarithm, and explore the numerical behavior of the remainder function along lines in the positive region.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.During recent years, fishery for oceanic redfish in the Irminger Sea has shifted towards greater depths while acoustic estimates of the stock only reach down to approximately 500 m depth. This paper describes the distribution of redfish, at depths below 500 m in the northern part of the Irminger Sea, based on a survey conducted during 7 to 23 May 1998. The main purpose of the survey was to map the deeper layer of oceanic redfish (at depth below 5-600 m) i.e. that part of the stock which is the target of commercial fishing during spring-early summer. The results indicate an even distribution with low density of redfish except for two small areas where the fishing fleet was concentrated, the wessels catching 2-3 tonnes of redfish per hour.

description: We derive a general scheme to obtain quantum fluctuation relations for dynamical observables in open quantum systems. For concreteness we consider Markovian non-unitary dynamics that is unraveled in terms of quantum jump trajectories, and exploit techniques from the theory of large deviations like the tilted ensemble and the Doob transform. Our results here generalise to open quantum systems fluctuation relations previously obtained for classical Markovian systems, and add to the vast literature on fluctuation relations in the quantum domain, but without resorting to the standard two-point measurement scheme. We illustrate our findings with three examples in order to highlight and discuss the main features of our general result.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Fisheries tend to selectively remove the larger, older individuals from demersal fish communities. Over ti.me this results in smaller average size of both target and by-catch species. At the community level, therefore, unrelenting fishing pressure should eventually cause the dominant modes in the biomass spectrum to shift downward to the left. There is evidence that such shifts are occurring in exploited continental slope fish communities in the North Atlantic. Should this trend continue for too long, the stage is set for the community to shift to a new stable state from which recovery to the original condition may prove very difficult.

description: Germanium detectors have very good capabilities for the investigation of rare phenomena like the neutrinoless double beta decay. Rejection of the background entangling the expected signal is one primary goal in this kind of experiments. Here, the attainable background reduction in the energy region where the neutrinoless double beta decay signal of 76Ge is expected to appear has been evaluated for experiments using germanium detectors, taking into consideration different strategies like the granularity of the detector system, the segmentation of each individual germanium detector and the application of Pulse Shape Analysis techniques to discriminate signal from background events. Detection efficiency to the signal is affected by background rejection techniques, and therefore it has been estimated for each of the background rejection scenarios considered. Finally, conditions regarding crystal mass, radiopurity, exposure to cosmic rays, shielding and rejection capabilities are discussed with the aim to achieve a background level of 10-3 c keV-1 kg-1 y-1 in the region of interest, which would allow to explore neutrino effective masses around 40 meV.

description: We present the hybrid hadron string dynamic (HydHSD) model connecting the parton-hadron-string dynamic model (PHSD) and a hydrodynamic model taking into account shear viscosity within the Israel-Stewart approach. The performance of the code is tested on the pion and proton rapidity and transverse mass distributions calculated for Au+Au and Pb+Pb collision at AGS--SPS energies. The influence of the switch time from transport to hydro models, the viscous parameter, and freeze-out time are discussed. Since the applicability of the Israel-Stewart hydrodynamics assumes the perturbative character of the viscous stress tensor, $π^{μν}$, which should not exceed the ideal energy-momentum tensor, $T_{\rm id}^{μν}$, hydrodynamical codes usually rescale the shear stress tensor if the inequality $\|π^{μν}\|\ll \|T_{\rm id}^{μν}\|$ is not fulfilled in some sense. We show that the form of the corresponding condition plays an important role in the sensitivity of hydrodynamic calculations to the viscous parameter -- a ratio of the shear viscosity to the entropy density, $η/s$. It is shown that the constraints used in the vHLLE and MUSIC models give the same results for the observables. With these constraints, the rapidity distributions and transverse momentum spectra are most sensitive to a change of the $η/s$ ratio. As an alternative, a strict condition is used. We performed global fits the rapidity and transverse mass distribution of pion and protons. It was also found that $η/s$ as a function of the collision energy monotonically increases from $E_{\rm lab}=6A$GeV up to $E_{\rm lab}=40A$GeV and saturates for higher SPS energies. We observe that it is difficult to reproduce simultaneously pion and proton rapidity distribution within our model with the present choice of the equation of state without a phase transition.

description: The aim of the present thesis is the analysis of environmental criminal law, in a national and international perspective. We wholly examined the Greek environmental criminal law, especially the crimes regarding the aquatic environment and their connection to the general environmental crime (Law No. 1650/1986). The EU liability model of legal entities and natural persons having a leading position within the legal entity for environmental offences is particularly discussed. Another important topic is the relation of environmental criminal law with environmental administrative law. Furthermore, we analyzed new terms and regulations of environmental criminal law (such as “serious negligence”) and we made our own proposals as regards the reformation of environmental criminal law on a de lege ferenda basis. Concerning the international level of environmental protection, the present thesis analyzes environmental crime as war crime and discusses the possibility of recognizing serious environmental crimes either as crimes against humanity or as a new autonomous category of international crime. The thesis recommends the recognition of serious environmental crime as a new category of crime under international law, namely in the most radical version of “ecocide”.
Updated cosmological constraints on Macroscopic Dark Matter

description: We revise the cosmological phenomenology of Macroscopic Dark Matter (MDM) candidates, also commonly dubbed as Macros. A possible signature of MDM is the capture of baryons from the cosmological plasma in the pre-recombination epoch, with the consequent injection of high-energy photons in the baryon-photon plasma. By keeping a phenomenological approach, we consider two broad classes of MDM in which Macros are composed either of ordinary matter or antimatter. In both scenarios, we also analyze the impact of a non-vanishing electric charge carried by Macros. We derive constraints on the Macro parameter space from three cosmological processes: the change in the baryon density between the end of the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) decoupling, the production of spectral distortions in the CMB and the kinetic coupling between charged MDM and baryons at the time of recombination. In the case of neutral Macros we find that the tightest constraints are set by the baryon density condition in most of the parameter space. For Macros composed of ordinary matter and with binding energy $I$, this leads to the following bound on the reduced cross-section: $σ_X/M_X \lesssim 6.8 \cdot 10^{-7} \left(I/\mathrm{MeV}\right)^{-1.56} \, \text{cm}^2 \, \text{g}^{-1}$. Charged Macros with surface potential $V_X$, instead, are mainly constrained by the tight coupling with baryons, resulting in $σ_X/M_X \lesssim 2 \cdot 10^{-11} \left(|V_X|/\mathrm{MeV}\right)^{-2} \text{cm}^2 \, \text{g}^{-1}$. Finally, we show that future CMB spectral distortions experiments, like PIXIE and SuperPIXIE, would have the sensitivity to probe larger regions of the parameter space: this would allow either for a possible evidence or for an improvement of the current bounds on Macros as dark matter candidates.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Centrophorus squamosus and Centroscymnus coelolepis are two squaloid sharks inhabiting the continental slope in the Northeast Atlantic, exploited since few years by french bottom trawlers. Their reproductive biology has been studied from 1018 Centrophorus squamosus and 2025 Centroscymnus coelolepis. Biological parameters such as size at first maturity, fecundity and size at birth are mentionned. Biological particularities of the exploited population are reviewed. For both species, mean size at first maturity in females is greater than for males. Analysis of catches shows that youngest miss and a part of adult population lacking ; for both species, the ratio male/female is umbalanced in favour of females and in C. squamosus, a high percentage of immatures and absence of pregnant specimens are also noticed. A depth segregation according to maturity stages occur in C. coelolepis. In C. squamosus this behaviour is less obvious as greater part of the population is out of reach of actual sampling area. Lack of observation in early life stages makes difficult the study of reproductive cycle even if analysis of the proportion in each maturity stage throughout the year tends to pointed out that those two species are asynchronous.

description: A number of morphology-based word embedding models were introduced in recent years. However, their evaluation was mostly limited to English, which is known to be a morphologically simple language. In this paper, we explore whether and to what extent incorporating morphology into word embeddings improves performance on downstream NLP tasks, in the case of morphologically rich Russian language. NLP tasks of our choice are POS tagging, Chunking, and NER -- for Russian language, all can be mostly solved using only morphology without understanding the semantics of words. Our experiments show that morphology-based embeddings trained with Skipgram objective do not outperform existing embedding model -- FastText. Moreover, a more complex, but morphology unaware model, BERT, allows to achieve significantly greater performance on the tasks that presumably require understanding of a word's morphology.

Regenerative response of fast and slow twitch skeletal muscle to denervation and devascularization
Creators: name: Bockhold, Kathy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The contractile properties of denervated/devascularized mouse fast-twitch extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and slow-twitch soleus (SOL) were studied at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks post-surgery. A comprehensive examination of these physiological parameters is desired in order to establish a mouse model of regeneration. The surgical technique involved shimmying a piece of silk thread along the belly of the muscle thus severing the nervous and the vascular supply to the individual EDL or SOL muscles. The denervated/devascularized muscles were divided into two groups, reinnervated and non-reinnervated based on their twitch and tetanic tensions. During the 12 week period post-denervation/devascularization, reinnervated EDL and SOL muscles showed a gradual increase toward control values in twitch and tetanic tensions. By 12 weeks the SOL reached 107% and 98% of the control twitch and tetanic tensions. In contrast, the reinnervated EDL only recovered 52% of the twitch tension and 64% of the tetanic tension by 12 weeks post-denervation/devascularization. The non-reinnervated SOL twitch and tetanic tensions were significantly less than control (p<0.05) and reinnervated values at 6 and 9 weeks but by 12 weeks they were not different from controls (p<0.05). The non-reinnervated EDL produced significantly less twitch and tetanic tension at all time periods studied. At 3 and 6 weeks post-surgery the reinnervated EDL contracted very slowly, but the speed of contraction gradually increased to control values by 12 weeks. The non-reinnervated EDL was significantly slower than the control and reinnervated muscles. The reinnervated and non-reinnervated SOL were slower than control muscles at 9 weeks but they recovered to control values by 12 weeks. The post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) of reinnervated and non-reinnervated EDL was 20% by 12 weeks and there was no PTP for reinnervated SOL. The maximum velocity of shortening (Vo) for EDL and SOL remained unchanged at all ages. The non-reinnervated and reinnervated EDL muscles were more fatigue resistant than the controls at 3 weeks post-surgery but the reinnervated EDL eventually returned to control values (at 6,9, and 12 weeks post-surgery). The reinnervated and non-reinnervated SOL were significantly less fatigable than controls at 3, 6, and 9 weeks, after which there was no difference in fatigability between the three groups. Both the reinnervated EDL and SOL muscles successfully regenerated as measured by their contractile properties. The non-reinnervated EDL resembled classically denervated muscle. The non-reinnervated SOL reveals a PTP and a fatigue pattern suggestive of reinnervation by a branch of a fast nerve.

description: This paper considers optimal control of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) using the discrete-time, finite-horizon, linear quadratic regulator (LQR). The state of a quadrotor UAV is represented as an element of the matrix Lie group of double direct isometries, $SE_2(3)$. The nonlinear system is linearized using a left-invariant error about a reference trajectory, leading to an optimal gain sequence that can be calculated offline. The reference trajectory is calculated using the differentially flat properties of the quadrotor. Monte-Carlo simulations demonstrate robustness of the proposed control scheme to parametric uncertainty, state-estimation error, and initial error. Additionally, when compared to an LQR controller that uses a conventional error definition, the proposed controller demonstrates better performance when initial errors are large.

description: The peculiar velocity of the Local Group of galaxies manifested in the Cosmic Microwave Background dipole is found to decompose into three dominant components. The three components are clearly separated because they arise on distinct spatial scales and are fortuitously almost orthogonal in their influences. The nearest, which is distinguished by a velocity discontinuity at ~7 Mpc, arises from the evacuation of the Local Void. We lie in the Local Sheet that bounds the void. Random motions within the Local Sheet are small. Our Galaxy participates in the bulk motion of the Local Sheet away from the Local Void. The component of our motion on an intermediate scale is attributed to the Virgo Cluster and its surroundings, 17 Mpc away. The third and largest component is an attraction on scales larger than 3000 km/s and centered near the direction of the Centaurus Cluster. The amplitudes of the three components are 259, 185, and 455 km/s, respectively, adding collectively to 631 km/s in the reference frame of the Local Sheet. Taking the nearby influences into account causes the residual attributed to large scales to align with observed concentrations of distant galaxies and reduces somewhat the amplitude of motion attributed to their pull. On small scales, in addition to the motion of our Local Sheet away from the Local Void, the nearest adjacent filament, the Leo Spur, is seen to be moving in a direction that will lead to convergence with our filament. Finally, a good distance to an isolated galaxy within the Local Void reveals that this dwarf system has a motion of at least 230 km/s away from the void center. Given the velocities expected from gravitational instability theory in the standard cosmological paradigm, the distance to the center of the Local Void must be at least 23 Mpc from our position. The Local Void is large!

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Assimilating the results of temporal trend assessments of contaminants in regional programmes such as OSP ARCOM can be difficult. Apart from the large number of data sets, the problem is made more complicated by the need to summai·ise results for species, tissue types, and possibly contaminants. We construct a fuzzy set defined as Contaminated in terms of the probability that the estimated mean concentration in the final year in a time series is below some environmental reference value. The degrees of membership of this set for different time series are then combined to give a measure of Contaminated for a region. Different rules for combining individual memberships are discussed. The results are applied to two data sets.

description: A semiclassical approximation for an evolving density operator, driven by a "closed" hamiltonian operator and "open" markovian Lindblad operators, is obtained. The theory is based on the chord function, i.e. the Fourier transform of the Wigner function. It reduces to an exact solution of the Lindblad master equation if the hamiltonian operator is a quadratic function and the Lindblad operators are linear functions of positions and momenta. Initially, the semiclassical formulae for the case of hermitian Lindblad operators are reinterpreted in terms of a (real) double phase space, generated by an appropriate classical double Hamiltonian. An extra "open" term is added to the double Hamiltonian by the non-hermitian part of the Lindblad operators in the general case of dissipative markovian evolution. The particular case of generic hamiltonian operators, but linear dissipative Lindblad operators, is studied in more detail. A Liouville-type equivariance still holds for the corresponding classical evolution in double phase, but the centre subspace, which supports the Wigner function, is compressed, along with expansion of its conjugate subspace, which supports the chord function. Decoherence narrows the relevant region of double phase space to the neighborhood of a caustic for both the Wigner function and the chord function. This difficulty is avoided by a propagator in a mixed representation, so that a further "small-chord" approximation leads to a simple generalization of the quadratic theory for evolving Wigner functions.

description: Recommender systems have achieved great success in modeling user's preferences on items and predicting the next item the user would consume. Recently, there have been many efforts to utilize time information of users' interactions with items to capture inherent temporal patterns of user behaviors and offer timely recommendations at a given time. Existing studies regard the time information as a single type of feature and focus on how to associate it with user preferences on items. However, we argue they are insufficient for fully learning the time information because the temporal patterns of user preference are usually heterogeneous. A user's preference for a particular item may 1) increase periodically or 2) evolve over time under the influence of significant recent events, and each of these two kinds of temporal pattern appears with some unique characteristics. In this paper, we first define the unique characteristics of the two kinds of temporal pattern of user preference that should be considered in time-aware recommender systems. Then we propose a novel recommender system for timely recommendations, called TimelyRec, which jointly learns the heterogeneous temporal patterns of user preference considering all of the defined characteristics. In TimelyRec, a cascade of two encoders captures the temporal patterns of user preference using a proposed attention module for each encoder. Moreover, we introduce an evaluation scenario that evaluates the performance on predicting an interesting item and when to recommend the item simultaneously in top-K recommendation (i.e., item-timing recommendation). Our extensive experiments on a scenario for item recommendation and the proposed scenario for item-timing recommendation on real-world datasets demonstrate the superiority of TimelyRec and the proposed attention modules.

description: Using multiple scattering theory, we show that the generally accepted expression of transverse resistivity in magnetic systems that host skyrmions, given by the linear superposition of the ordinary (OHE), the anomalous (AHE) and the topological Hall effect (THE), is incomplete and must be amended by an additional term, the "non-collinear" Hall effect (NHE). Its angular form is determined by the magnetic texture, the spin-orbit field of the electrons, and the underlying crystal structure, allowing to disentangle the NHE from the various other Hall contributions. Its magnitude is proportional to the spin-orbit interaction strength. The NHE is an essential term required for decoding two- and three-dimensional spin textures from transport experiments.

description: We reexamine the time-delay formalism of Wigner, Eisenbud and Smith, which was developed to analyze both elastic and inelastic resonances. An error in the paper of Smith has propagated through the literature. We correct this error and show how the results of Eisenbud and Smith are related. We also comment on some recent time-delay studies, based on Smith's erroneous interpretation of the Eisenbud result.

Initial Conditions for Bubble Universes

description: The "bubble universes" of Coleman and De Luccia play a crucial role in string cosmology. Since our own Universe is supposed to be of this kind, bubble cosmology should supply definite answers to the long-standing questions regarding cosmological initial conditions. In particular, it must explain how an initial singularity is avoided, and also how the initial conditions for Inflation were established. We argue that the simplest non-anthropic approach to these problems involves a requirement that the spatial sections defined by distinguished bubble observers should not be allowed to have arbitrarily small volumes. Casimir energy is a popular candidate for a quantum effect which can ensure this, but [because it violates energy conditions] there is a danger that it could lead to non-perturbative instabilities in string theory. We make a simple proposal for the initial conditions of a bubble universe, and show that our proposal ensures that the system is non-perturbatively stable. Thus, low-entropy conditions can be established at the beginning of a bubble universe without violating the Second Law of thermodynamics and without leading to instability in string theory. These conditions are inherited from the ambient spacetime.

Specht modules and semisimplicity criteria for Brauer and Birman--Murakami--Wenzl Algebras

description: A construction of bases for cell modules of the Birman--Murakami--Wenzl (or B--M--W) algebra $B_n(q,r)$ by lifting bases for cell modules of $B_{n-1}(q,r)$ is given. By iterating this procedure, we produce cellular bases for B--M--W algebras on which a large abelian subalgebra, generated by elements which generalise the Jucys--Murphy elements from the representation theory of the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of the symmetric group, acts triangularly. The triangular action of this abelian subalgebra is used to provide explicit criteria, in terms of the defining parameters $q$ and $r$, for B--M--W algebras to be semisimple. The aforementioned constructions provide generalisations, to the algebras under consideration here, of certain results from the Specht module theory of the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of the symmetric group.
