description: The emerging Au-assisted exfoliation technique provides a wealth of large-area and high-quality ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) materials compared with traditional tape-based exfoliation. Fast, damage-free, and reliable determination of the layer number of such 2D films is essential to study layer-dependent physics and promote device applications. Here, an optical method has been developed for simple, high throughput, and accurate determination of the layer number for Au-assisted exfoliated MoS$_2$ and WS$_2$ films in a broad thickness range. The method is based on quantitative analysis of layer-dependent white light reflection spectra, revealing that the reflection peak intensity can be used as a clear indicator for determining the layer number. The simple yet robust method will facilitate the fundamental study on layer-dependent optical, electrical, and thermal properties and device applications of 2D materials. The technique can also be readily combined with photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopies to study other layer-dependent physical properties of 2D materials.

description: The Solar System's orbital structure is thought to have been sculpted by an episode of dynamical instability among the giant planets. However, the instability trigger and timing have not been clearly established. Hydrodynamical modeling has shown that while the Sun's gaseous protoplanetary disk was present the giant planets migrated into a compact orbital configuration in a chain of resonances. Here we use dynamical simulations to show that the giant planets' instability was likely triggered by the dispersal of the gaseous disk. As the disk evaporated from the inside-out, its inner edge swept successively across and dynamically perturbed each planet's orbit in turn. The associated orbital shift caused a dynamical compression of the exterior part of the system, ultimately triggering instability. The final orbits of our simulated systems match those of the Solar System for a viable range of astrophysical parameters. The giant planet instability therefore took place as the gaseous disk dissipated, constrained by astronomical observations to be a few to ten million years after the birth of the Solar System. Terrestrial planet formation would not complete until after such an early giant planet instability; the growing terrestrial planets may even have been sculpted by its perturbations, explaining the small mass of Mars relative to Earth.

description: The classification of structural phase transitions as displacive or order-disorder in character is usually based on spectroscopic data above the transition. We use single crystal x-ray diffraction to investigate structural correlations in the quasi-skutterudites, (Ca$_x$Sr$_{1-x}$)$_3$Rh$_4$Sn$_{13}$, which have a quantum phase transition at $x\sim0.9$. Three-dimensional pair distribution functions show that the amplitudes of local atomic displacements are temperature-independent below the transition and persist to well above the transition, a signature of order-disorder behavior. The implications for the associated electronic transitions are discussed.

The law of entropy increase and the Meissner effect

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The law of entropy increase postulates the existence of irreversible processes in physics: the total entropy of an isolated system can increase but cannot decrease. The annihilation of an electric current in normal metal with the generation of Joule heat because of a non-zero resistance is well-known example of irreversible process. The persistent current, an undamped electric current observed in a superconductor, annihilates after the transition into the normal state. Therefore this transition was considered as irreversible thermodynamic process before 1933. But if this transition is irreversible then the Meissner effect discovered in 1933 is experimental evidence of a process reverse to the irreversible process. Belief in the law of entropy increase forced physicists to change their understanding of the superconducting transition, which is considered a phase transition after 1933. This change has resulted to the internal inconsistency of the conventional theory of superconductivity, which is created within the framework of reversible thermodynamics but predicts Joule heating. The persistent current annihilates after the transition into the normal state with the generation of Joule heat and reappears during the return to the superconducting state according to this theory and contrary to the law of entropy increase. The success of the conventional theory of superconductivity forces to consider the validity of belief in the law of entropy increase.

Wave-driven outbursts and variability of low-mass supernova progenitors

description: In a substantial number of core-collapse supernovae, early-time interaction indicates a dense circumstellar medium (CSM) that may be produced by outbursts from the progenitor star. Wave-driven mass loss is a possible mechanism to produce these signatures, with previous work suggesting this mechanism is most effective for low mass ($ \sim \! 11 \, M_\odot$) SN progenitors. Using one-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations with MESA, we study the effects of this wave heating in SN progenitors of masses $M_{\rm ZAMS} = 10-13\, M_{\odot}$. This range encompasses stars that experience semi-degenerate, central neon burning and more degenerate, off-center neon ignition. We find that central Ne ignition at $M_{\rm ZAMS} = 11\, M_{\odot}$ produces a burst of intense wave heating that transmits $\sim10^{47}$ erg of energy at $10$ years before core collapse, whereas other masses experience smaller levels of wave heating. Wave heating does not hydrodynamically drive mass loss in any of our models and is unlikely to produce a very massive CSM on its own. However, wave heating can cause large radial expansion (by more than an order of magnitude), photospheric cooling, and luminosity brightening by up to $\sim 10^6\, L_{\odot}$ in hydrogen-poor stripped star models. Some type Ib/c progenitors could drastically change their appearance in the final years of their lives, with brightness in visual bands increasing by nearly 3 mags. Moreover, interaction with a close binary companion could drive intense mass loss, with implications for type Ibn and other interaction-powered SNe.

subject: Architectural design

description: BACKGROUND: Gilbert's essay responds to Kerb Journal 22's thematic, 'Remoteness,' which interrogates the notion from four viewpoints, identifying opportunities of engagement within spaces balancing on the edge of tangibility, or deeply virtually sited. The essay 'On the Remote' explores the theoretical concept of the remote and proposes through this as a rethinking and repositioning of the relationship between story and landscape whereby inherent landscape attributes of fragility and paradox are allowed expression. CONTRIBUTION: New knowledge is generated through this essay in engaging in a disciplinary discourse around the experience of landscape. In drawing parallels between Indigenous notions of reality expressed through relationship to country and those of more foundational (but often neglected) contemporary landscape paradigms of the sublime, Gilbert suggests a new approach to the practice of landscape architecture. In doing so, the practice of landscape architecture is necessarily extended beyond that of the environmental to include also the experiential realm challenging the profession to move beyond the world of formalized fixed outcomes and technocratic solutions to issues of sustainability and environmental concern, challenging the concept of a stewardship empty of the agency of design. SIGNIFICANCE: The significance of this work is evidenced by its inclusion in the Kerb Journal of Landscape Architecture - an annual cross-disciplinary design publication produced by the RMIT University School of Architecture and Design (ISSN: 1324-8049). It is a design journal focused on contemporary landscape architecture issues from an international and national perspective.

description: There is growing concern globally about the occurrence of anthropogenic organic contaminants in the environment, including pharmaceuticals and personal care products. This concern extends to groundwater, which is a critical water resource in Europe, and its protection is a priority to the European Commission, the European Union (EU) Member States and national agencies across Europe. Maintaining good groundwater status supports improved public health, economic growth and sustains groundwater dependant ecosystems. A range of measures have been introduced for regulating several substances that have impacted groundwater (e.g. nitrate and pesticides). However, these measures only cover a small fraction of anthropogenic substances that could pollute groundwater. Monitoring for these unregulated substances is currently very limited or not carried out at all. Therefore, a coordinated European-wide approach is needed to identify, monitor and characterise priority substances or groups of substances that have the potential to pollute groundwater. This evidence base is critical for policy development and controls on these currently unregulated substances. The European Commission highlighted this as a need during the review of the EU Groundwater Directive Annexes in 2014, when the requirement to develop a Groundwater Watch List (GWWL) was established. This paper describes the approach that has been developed through a voluntary initiative as part of the EU CIS Working Group Groundwater to establish the voluntary EU GWWL. The process for developing the GWWL is one that has brought together researchers, regulators and industry, and is described here for the first time. A summary of the key principles behind the methodology is presented as well as results from pilot studies using per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and pharmaceuticals. These explore and support the viability of the GWWL process, an important step towards its adoption and its future use for groundwater protection across Europe. © 2019 The Author(s)

description: BACKGROUND: 'A Question of Culture: In Discussion' is a commisioned discussion about the relationship between culture and architecture surrounding several Australian and New Zealand architectural works. Following the article's publication, several of the buildings discussed were nominated awards from the Australian Institute of Architects, such as Adelaide Oval Redevelopment and the Prince Alfred Park and Pool. The review taps into a long history of architectural critique where figures like Ada Louise Huxley, the well-known architecture critic and writer, awarded the first ever Pulitzer Prize for Criticism, brought architecture into the public realm through writing. Published within Australia's popular industry magazine, the authors' article continues within this tradition. SIGNIFICANCE: 'A Question of Culture: In Discussion' was published within 'Architectural Review Asia Pacific', one of Australia's leading magazines about contemporary architectural design and "is the only magazine to critically review projects and architectural ideas from across the Asia Pacific." The magazine has been in print for over 28 years with a wide distribution network and has chartered the use of steel in Australia's most innovative architecture over this period. It is well known for its high quality photography and reviews. CONTRIBUTION: In line with contemporary theorists and academics like Jeremy Till and Jane Rendell, this article aligns with the notion of writing as an expanded form of practice beyond the built form and into the realm of ideas, ethics and reflection. This debate stems from a current questioning of the role of architecture within the contemporary climate that has inspired architects to experiment in non-traditional methods of practice.

description: Alternative fuel sources, such as hydrogen-enriched natural gas (HENG), are highly sought after by governments globally for lowering carbon emissions. Consequently, the recognition of hydrogen as a valuable zero-emission energy carrier has increased, resulting in many countries attempting to enrich natural gas with hydrogen; however, there are rising concerns over the safe use, storage, and transport of H2 due to its characteristics such as flammability, combustion, and explosivity at low concentrations (4 vol%), requiring highly sensitive and selective sensors for safety monitoring. Microfluidic-based metal–oxide–semiconducting (MOS) gas sensors are strong tools for detecting lower levels of natural gas elements; however, their working mechanism results in a lack of real-time analysis techniques to identify the exact concentration of the present gases. Current advanced machine learning models, such as deep learning, require large datasets for training. Moreover, such models perform poorly in data distribution shifts such as instrumental variation. To address this problem, we proposed a Sparse Autoencoder-based Transfer Learning (SAE-TL) framework for estimating the hydrogen gas concentration in HENG mixtures using limited datasets from a 3D printed microfluidic detector coupled with two commercial MOS sensors. Our framework detects concentrations of simulated HENG based on time-series data collected from a cost-effective microfluidic-based detector. This modular gas detector houses metal–oxide–semiconducting (MOS) gas sensors in a microchannel with coated walls, which provides selectivity based on the diffusion pace of different gases. We achieve a dominant performance with the SAE-TL framework compared to typical ML models (94% R-squared). The framework is implementable in real-world applications for fast adaptation of the predictive models to new types of MOS sensor responses.
Optimizing Analog Ensembles for Sub-Daily Precipitation Forecasts

description: This study systematically explores existing and new optimization techniques for analog ensemble (AnEn) post-processing of hourly to daily precipitation forecasts over the complex terrain of southwest British Columbia, Canada. An AnEn bias-corrects a target model forecast by searching for past dates with similar model forecasts (i.e., analogs), and using the verifying observations as ensemble members. The weather variables (i.e., predictors) that select the best past analogs vary among stations and seasons. First, different predictor selection techniques are evaluated and we propose an adjustment in the forward selection procedure that considerably improves computational efficiency while preserving optimization skill. Second, temporal trends of predictors are used to further enhance predictive skill, especially at shorter accumulation windows and longer forecast horizons. Finally, this study introduces a modification in the analog search that allows for selection of analogs within a time window surrounding the target lead time. These supplemental lead times effectively expand the training sample size, which significantly improves all performance metrics—even more than the predictor weighting and temporal-trend optimization steps combined. This study optimizes AnEns for moderate precipitation intensities but also shows good performance for the ensemble median and heavier precipitation rates. Precipitation is most challenging to predict at finer temporal resolutions and longer lead times, yet those forecasts see the largest enhancement in predictive skill from AnEn post-processing. This study shows that optimization of AnEn post-processing, including new techniques developed herein, can significantly improve computational efficiency and forecast performance.

description: BACKGROUND: The essay 'Vainamoinen's Ghost: The Biometric Sublime,' accompanied by 3 illustrative figures, presents a creative proposition for the entranceway to Montreal through the Nordic epic poem 'The Kalevala.' It was selected for publication in Kerb Journal of Landscape Architecture. CONTRIBUTION: This creative work responds to the thematic of issue 19: 'Paradigms of Nature: Post Natural Futures.' In 'resisting the representation of Montreal's post-industrial freeway spaces as a series of perceptual voids,' as well as resisting the 'urge to fill these vacant lands with anthropogenic activity,' the designers instead propose to sow these voids arboreally, to allow the biometric potential within to emerge. 'Sacred bees - 'Mehiläinen'- both draw on this bioactivity and draw it out, offering a haunting supplement to the sowing.' This poetic rendering of a sublime Nordic experience - through text and image - presents a novel approach to conceptualising the contemporary landscape. This proposal reinforces what David Gissen calls 'the architectural reconstruction of nature,' specifically as a way of bringing nature back into the view and experience of the city. SIGNIFICANCE: The significance of this work is evidenced by its inclusion in the Kerb Journal of Landscape Architecture - an annual cross-disciplinary design publication produced by the RMIT University School of Architecture and Design (ISSN: 1324-8049).

description: Let $Θ$ be the Wigner time reversal operator for spin half and let $ϕ$ be a Weyl spinor. Then, for a left-transforming $ϕ$, the construct $ζ_λΘϕ^\ast$ yields a right-transforming spinor. If instead, $ϕ$ is a right-transforming spinor, then the construct $ζ_ρΘϕ^\ast$ results in a left-transforming spinor ($ζ_{λ,ρ}$ are phase factors). This allows us to introduce two sets of four-component spinors. Setting $ζ_λ$ and $ζ_ρ$ to $\pm i$ render all eight spinors as eigenspinor of the charge conjugation operator~$\mathcal{C}$ (called ELKO). This allows us to introduce two quantum fields. A calculation of the vacuum expectation value of the time-ordered product of the fields and their adjoints reveals the mass dimension of the fields to be one. Both fields are local in the canonical sense of quantum field theory. Interestingly, one of the fields is fermionic and the other bosonic. The mass dimension of the introduced fermionic fields and the matter fields of the Standard Model carry an intrinsic mismatch. As such, they provide natural darkness for the new fields with respect to the Standard Model doublets. The statistics and locality are controlled by a set of phases. These are explicitly given. Then we observe that in $p_μp^μ= m^2$, Dirac took the simplest square root of the $4\times 4$ identity matrix $I$ (in $I \times m^2 $, while introducing $γ_μp^μ$ as the square root of the left hand side of the dispersion relation), and as such he implicitly ignored the remaining fifteen. When we examine the remaining roots, we obtain additional bosonic and fermionic dark matter candidates of spin half. We point out that by early nineteen seventies, Dirac had suspected the existence of spin half bosons, in the same space as his fermions. Abstract truncated.

description: Methods for reinforcement learning for recommendation (RL4Rec) are increasingly receiving attention as they can quickly adapt to user feedback. A typical RL4Rec framework consists of (1) a state encoder to encode the state that stores the users' historical interactions, and (2) an RL method to take actions and observe rewards. Prior work compared four state encoders in an environment where user feedback is simulated based on real-world logged user data. An attention-based state encoder was found to be the optimal choice as it reached the highest performance. However, this finding is limited to the actor-critic method, four state encoders, and evaluation-simulators that do not debias logged user data. In response to these shortcomings, we reproduce and expand on the existing comparison of attention-based state encoders (1) in the publicly available debiased RL4Rec SOFA simulator with (2) a different RL method, (3) more state encoders, and (4) a different dataset. Importantly, our experimental results indicate that existing findings do not generalize to the debiased SOFA simulator generated from a different dataset and a Deep Q-Network (DQN)-based method when compared with more state encoders.

description: BACKGROUND: Disc-Course was created by members of RMIT's Performative Creative Practice Research Laboratory(Pflab) for the Performing Mobilities Assembly in October 2015. The Assembly was the Australian arm of the PSi 'Fluid States' program. Pflab involves a range of creative practitioners interested in employing performative methodologies to undertake and test creative research. Disc-Course sits in the discipline of architecture and design in the narrow field of overlap between performance and design. Leading figures in this overlap include Professor Beth Weinstein and Professor Dorita Hannah. By enabling participants to work at the generative edge of their research interests Disc-Course targeted a gap in existing research. CONTRIBUTION: Disc-Course was 'a silent, creative practice research situation', a performance installation using unscripted performative methodologies. It enabled affective relations between participants to emerge and their respective research interests to cross-pollinate. The public was free to enter, participate and leave as they chose. An environment conducive to relational research in a live setting accordingly emerged. It was this live, unscripted nature of the project that underpinned the primary research question: How to invite others to be there in emergent research relations with them-without words? Working at the generative edge of research, Disc-Course contributes to the broad field of creative practice research. SIGNIFICANCE: The work led into a cross-institutional laboratory in Auckland in 2016. The practitioners involved in this 'trans-Tasman test' were from RMIT Pflab, the University of Auckland, AUT, and Massy University. The participants have agreed to continue sharing ways of working at the performative, generative edge of research. By being part of the larger international PSi 'Fluid States' program, Disc-Course was presented alongside some of the worlds leading practitioners in Performance Studies.

The Impact of Starbursts and Post-Starbursts on the Photometric Evolution of High Redshift Galaxies

description: We present evolutionary synthesis models for galaxies of spectral types Sa through Sd with starbursts of various strengths triggered at various redshifts and study their photometric evolution before, during, and after their bursts in a cosmological context. We find that bursts at high redshift, even very strong ones, only cause a small blueing of their intrinsically blue young parent galaxies. At lower redshift, even small bursts cause a significant blueing of their intrinsically redder galaxies. While the burst phase is generally short, typically a few hundred Myr in normal-mass galaxies, the postburst stage with its red colors and, in particular the very red ones for early bursts at high redshift, is much longer, of the order of several Gyr. Even without any dust, which in the postburst stage is not expected to play an important role anyway, models easily reach the colors of EROs in the redshift range z=2 through z=0.5 after starbursts at redshifts between 2 and 4. We therefore propose a third alternative for the ERO galaxies beyond the two established ones of passive galaxies vs. dusty starbursts: the dust-free post-(strong-)starbursts. A very first comparison of our models to HDF data with photometric redshifts shows that almost all of the outliers that could not be described with our chemically consistent models for undisturbed normal galaxy types E through Sd can now be explained very well. Galaxies in the redshift range from z=2.5 to z=0.5 that are redder, and in some cases much redder, than our reddest undisturbed model for a high-metallicity classical elliptical are well described by post-starburst models after starbursts at redshifts between 2 and 4. Galaxies bluer than our bluest low metallicity Sd model, most of which have redshifts lower than 1, are well explained by ongoing starbursts.

Application of the t-model of optimal prediction to the estimation of the rate of decay of solutions of the Euler equations in two and three dimensions

description: The "t-model" for dimensional reduction is applied to the estimation of the rate of decay of solutions of the Burgers equation and of the Euler equations in two and three space dimensions. The model was first derived in a statistical mechanics context, but here we analyze it purely as a numerical tool and prove its convergence. In the Burgers case the model captures the rate of decay exactly, as was already previously shown. For the Euler equations in two space dimensions, the model preserves energy as it should. In three dimensions, we find a power law decay in time and observe a temporal intermittency.

description: Although the impacts and challenges of tourism in towns and cities near protected areas have been studied extensively, there is a lack of both data and understanding that limits progress towards generalizable solutions, planning strategies, and guidance for addressing the increasing pressures affecting these communities. This article compares the factors influencing residents’ perceptions and local support of tourism in five gateway communities to Grand Canyon National Park. Importance–performance analysis (IPA) and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to assess the proposed measurements of perceptions and hypotheses concerning local support and to compare the relationships among selected variables, such as community participation (CP), living environment (LE), trust in tourism institutions (TT), tourism benefits (TB), community satisfaction (CS), and perceived tourism cost (TC). Four groups of factors influenced residents’ perceptions; these were classified into four stages based on their management priority. A gap between the desires of community residents for the development of national parks and community tourism and the current state of development was identified, suggesting that these communities would benefit from management measures to mitigate the impacts of tourism. Through SEM, five factors were verified as drivers of local support for national park tourism development, including community participation, living environment, trust in tourism institutions, tourism benefits, and community satisfaction. Perceived tourism cost was not found to be a significant driver.

Experiential Education & Study Abroad: The Necessity for Pre-Program Course Development and Implementation
Creators: name: Godfrey, Kathryn
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2012

description: In today's globalized world, it has become increasingly important for people to connect across continents and oceans and between cultures and communities. These connections are critical to the development and success of businesses, non-profit organizations, governments, conservation efforts, cultural survival and sustaining relationships between people. In light of this, it is imperative that young people in particular are given the means to directly experience different cultural lifeways in order to develop (inter)cultural competencies and a sense of global citizenship. My central argument in the thesis will be that while the traditional "study abroad" program remains the best avenue for gaining such competency, sustained and rigorous preparation of students is imperative to both ensure the subsequent success of the overseas experience and sustain the effects on students in their post-matriculation years. I start with the premise that studying abroad has long been an essential component of higher education insofar as it provides students with the opportunity for cross-cultural exchange, exposure to diverse global perspectives, developing language skills, learning effective verbal and non-verbal communication skills, and gaining independence and maturity. I base my arguments on a concentrated review of research literature on the topic and drawing on my experiences as an international educator and former study abroad student. I then address a significant gap in study abroad programs which I identify as the absence of means and methods to foster action and critical reflection on the part of students in such programs. My intervention in this arena centers on the claim that study abroad programs must include, and be preceded by, a grounding in and critical engagement with the concepts, aims and goals of cultural sustainability. Accordingly, a key component of this document is a model syllabus that I have developed for an intensive college-level course for study abroad participants. It is entitled "Cross-Cultural Preparation for Study Abroad" and it aims to introduce students to concepts of cultural sustainability and global awareness, among other such topics. This course will greatly enhance students' educational experiences by providing them with training and strategies to immerse themselves in and accommodate to distinctly different cultural settings abroad.
