digital archaeology

description: Archaeologists are busy all the time. Often stretching to meet a variety of professional obligations.  CRM and government agency archaeologists are among the most stretched given the different directions that pull upon their professional lives. Scholarly pursuits; administrative, bureaucratic, regulatory, and public outreach responsibilities related to physical sites and collections, easily fill or over-fill their schedules. Now the care and curation of digital data adds to the piling up of responsibilities. Digital data and the technical tools that create and enable its use present many opportunities for research and resource management. Digital technology makes data easily and widely accessible, sharing information, and enabling the creation of new interpretations and increase in overall knowledge. But, digital data must be curated or it will be lost. Digital curation doesn’t just happen, it requires attention, special expertise, and long-term commitment to the curation enterprise. The Digital Archaeological Record (tDAR) is a repository where individual archaeologists, agencies, and organizations deposit their data (e.g., documents, images, data sets, and more). Once deposited in tDAR the data are curated by digital archival specialists who focus on ensuring the data are protected, made available as the depositor determines, and kept available for use and re-use.

description: Human lymphocytes as well as zebrafish embryos were used to study the toxicity of acrylamide, and the intervention effects of the dietary antioxidants (-)-epigallocatechin gallate and curcumin have been examined. The alkaline comet assay revealed that acrylamide (1, 5, 10 mmol/L) had dose-response effects on basic DNA damage and oxidative DNA damage in human lymphocytes. Exposure of zebrafish embryos to acrylamide resulted in decrease of hatching rate, and in increases of mortality and teratogenicity. (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate and curcumin reduced DNA damage and protected zebrafish embryos in the growth and development.
The Role of Synthesis in American Archaeology and Cultural Resource Management as Seen through an Arizona Lens

description: Since the passage of the National Historic Preservation Act in 1966, American archaeology has been transformed from an academic discipline to a service industry that provides regulatory compliance. Much like the rest of the nation, Arizona has benefited from the identification and excavation of thousands of archaeological sites. We have learned much about what happened in the past. We have not, however, been as successful in synthesizing the new data into new understandings of why humans behaved as they did in the past and how such understandings can help society confront the key issues of our day. After reviewing the last 50 years of synthetic research in Arizona, I offer a path forward to integrate archaeology and archaeologists with other sciences and scientists to address critical issues whose solutions require a time horizon which only archaeology can provide.
THEORY OF ITALIAN NATURAL BOUNDARY, BETWEEN «MISTAKES» AND AUGUSTAN ECHOES
Creators: name: Pigliucci, Michele
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: During the 48 years between Italian conquest of Rome and First World War, a scientific debate started involving Italian geographers about definition of region concept and about alleged existence of an Italian region objectively recognizable. As well known, the issue had important political implications, due to simultaneous rise of Irredentism movement, aiming to claim the conquest of territories inhabited by Italians but still out of Kingdom jurisdiction. Irredentists read geographical theories as a scientific support to the «sacred» right, for Italy, to «reach holy limits», namely natural boundaries considered the geographical limit of Italian peninsula. Among the reasons in support of this issue, there was, for the western boundary, the Roman history of the Giulia region – revealed by Latin etymology of toponyms – since Augustus incorporated it in X Regio Venetia et Histria, that is to say in Italian jurisdiction. After fall of Fascism, in historical reading, Italian geographers were accused of providing intellectual groundwork to rising nationalism, submitting Geography to imperialism. Aim of this article is to read back some steps of the debate through rediscovery of some leading geographers of that period, and to highlight how the following condemnation was unfair, by offering a different interpretation detecting, in the echoes of Augustan territorial organization, the starting point for reflection about the relationship between Italian geographers and political power.

description: We study the properties of the electroweak sphaleron on a finite lattice. The cooling algorithm for saddle points is used to obtain the static classical solutions of the SU(2)-Higgs field theory. Results are presented for $M_H=\infty, M_W, 0.75M_W$. After performing finite size scaling we find good agreement with the results obtained from variational approaches. Of relevance for numerical determinations of the transition rate is that the lattice artefacts are surprisingly small for $M_W\approx M_H$.

description: Background: The SMARCB1 gene encodes a subunit of the BRG1-Associated Factor (BAF) complex, and mutations in this gene have been linked to Coffin-Siris Syndrome (CSS) type 3. CSS is characterized by a range of developmental disabilities, facial dysmorphic features, and feeding difficulties. There’s been noted genotype-phenotype correlation in CSS, with cases involving SMARCB1 mutations often exhibiting more severe language impairment and intellectual disability. Method: We conducted a review of reported CSS type 3 cases and presented the first instance of CSS associated with a SMARCB1 variant wherein the patient exhibited normal intelligence and only mild selective neuropsychological deficits. The patient underwent evaluation for feeding challenges, growth delay, and dysmorphic features during their second year of life. Subsequently, CSS diagnosis was confirmed due to a de novo heterozygous c.568C > T (p.Arg190Trp) variant in the SMARCB1 gene. Due to learning difficulties, the patient underwent a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment, which was related to the retrospective reconstruction of her medical and developmental history. Results: The patient demonstrated normal intelligence and adaptive functioning, with specific deficits in arithmetic and selective difficulties in verbal learning and long-term memory. Feeding difficulties and language delay observed in early childhood showed significant improvement over time. Discussion: We discuss this case in relation to previously reported CSS type 3 cases, emphasizing neuropsychological aspects. It’s evident that neuropsychological features of CSS can vary among affected individuals, highlighting the importance of personalized support and interventions tailored to specific cognitive and emotional needs by healthcare professionals. Our case suggests avenues for future research to identify specific modifiers of phenotypic expression to explain variability in intellect among patients and pinpoint potential targets for gene therapy.

description: In models based on large extra dimensions where massive spin 2 exchange can dominate at high energies, the neutrino-proton cross section can rise to typical hadronic values at energies above 10^20 eV. The neutrino then becomes a candidate for the primary that initiates the highest energy cosmic ray showers. We investigate characteristics of neutrino-induced showers compared to proton-induced showers. The comparison includes study of starting depth, profile with depth, lateral particle distribution at ground and muon lateral distribution at ground level. We find that for cross sections above 20 mb there are regions of parameter space where the two types of showers are essentially indistinguishable. We conclude that the neutrino candidate hypothesis cannot be ruled out on the basis of shower characteristics.

THE MACRO-REGION OF SOUTHERN ITALY: INTELLECTUAL SUGGESTION OR FEASIBLE WAY?
Creators: name: Novembre, Claudio
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: The idea of a macro-region of Southern Italy is only an intellectual suggestion or could represent a viable option to treat a greater impact on the many wounds that plague this part of the country? And yet, if we imagine a macro-region of the South, it is more useful to think it is functional aggregation, oriented to the realization of joint projects, or even as a separate institutional expression of a clear political legitimacy? Analyze the feasibility of this idea that increasingly stands out as theme of confrontation between experts, politicians, bureaucrats and public administrators is the goal of this contribution. Contribution to that found in the most recent annual reports published by an institution as important as the SVIMEZ and by stimulating and provocative book by Giorgio Ruffolo 2010, A Country too Long, the foundations for a deeper reflection. If, as he wrote Giuseppe Mazzini, «Italy will be what will be the South», the precise analyzes that SVIMEZ has made in recent years give us a worrying photograph of state of health of the South and, by extension, of the entire peninsula. Hence the need to re-open a discussion to try to give a unitary dimension to the issue of the South, because the largest and most populous region in the Euro Area which still presents situations of serious under-utilization of local resources, needs strategic planning of vast dimensions given that, beyond the local differences, the problems remain unitary.

GREEK MODELS AND LITERARY SOURCES ON THE IMPORTANCE OF ITALY AS SIGN OF ITS BENT TO UNIVERSAL RULE IN DE ARCHITECTURA OF VITRUVIUS (VI 1, 1-11)
Creators: name: Martin, Marco
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: The subject of importance of Italy, at the beginning of book VI of De Architectura of Vitruvius (30-20 B.C.) shows a significant change from a geo-climatic conception to a political and ideological one. With the contribution of Greek thought it is possible to say that in Vitruvius we can read about a traslatio of an idea of a country (Rome and no longer Greece) localized in the middle, privileged by climatic conditions, inhabited by an excellent people with an imperial mission in the world. Aristotelic thought and stoic pronoia join with the Augustan propaganda in particular way thanks to posidonian conception that wants to justify Roman imperialism. Posidonius, very influential thinker in the Roman culture of Late Respublica, put beside Rome and Italy to Greece and he was one of the most important philosophers who spoke to Roman nobilitas with Greek arguments. He thought that Pronoia (providentia or divina mens in Vitruvius) put Rome to play a leading role in the known world and to exercise power over other nations. Vitruvius, in his excursus of VI 1, 1-11, is the heir to an old cultural tradition between philosophy of history and political thought from Greek paideia inside of Mecenate’s circle.

description: We consider using toroidal curved detectors to improve the performance of imaging optical systems. We demonstrate that some optical systems have an anamorphic field curvature. We consider an unobscured re-imaging three-mirror anastigmat as an example (f'=960 mm, F/5.3, FoV 4x4 degrees). By assuming that the image is focused on a toroidal detector surface and perform re-optimization, it becomes possible to obtain a notable gain in the image quality - up to 40 % in terms of the spot RMS radius. Through analytic computations and finite-element analysis, we demonstrate that this toroidal shape can be obtained by bending of a thinned detector in a relatively simple setup.

description: Addressing archaeology’s most compelling substantive challenges requires synthetic research that exploits the large and rapidly expanding corpus of systematically collected archaeological data. That, in turn, requires a means of combining datasets that employ different systematics in their recording while at the same time preserving the semantics of the data. To that end, we have developed a general procedure that we call query-driven, on-the-fly data integration that is deployed within the Digital Archaeological Record digital repository. The integration procedure employs ontologies that are mapped to the original datasets. Integration of the ontology-based dataset representations is done at the time the query is executed, based on the specific content of the query. In this way, the original data are preserved, and data are aggregated only to the extent necessary to obtain semantic comparability. Our presentation draws examples from the largest application to date: an effort by a research community of Southwest US faunal analysts. Using 24 ontologies developed
to cover a broad range of observed faunal variables, we integrate faunal data from 33 sites across the late prehistoric northern Southwest, including about 300,000 individually recorded faunal specimens.

description: Objective: It is unclear how self-reported severe fatigue and difficulty concentrating after SARS-CoV-2 infection relate to objective neuropsychological functioning. The study aimed to compare neuropsychological functioning between individuals with and without these persistent subjective complaints. Method: Individuals with and without persistent severe fatigue (Checklist Individual Strength (CIS) fatigue ≥ 35) and difficulty concentrating (CIS concentration ≥ 18) at least 3 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection were included. Neuropsychological assessment was performed on overall cognitive functioning, attention, processing speed, executive functioning, memory, visuo-construction, and language (18 tests). T-scores −1.5 SD below population normative data (T ≤ 35) were classified as “impaired”. Results: 230 participants were included in the study, of whom 22 were excluded from the analysis due to invalid performance. Of the participants included in the analysis, 111 reported persistent complaints of severe fatigue and difficulty concentrating and 97 did not. Median age was 54 years, 59% (n = 126) were female, and participants were assessed a median of 23 months after first infection (IQR: 16–28). With bivariate logistic regression, individuals with persistent complaints had an increased likelihood of slower information processing speed performance on the Stroop word reading (OR = 2.45, 95%CI = 1.02–5.84) compared to those without persistent complaints. Demographic or clinical covariates (e.g. hospitalization) did not influence this association. With linear regression techniques, persistent complaints were associated with lower t-scores on the D2 CP, TMT B, and TMT B|A. There were no differences in performance on the other neuropsychological tests. Conclusions: Individuals with subjective severe fatigue and difficulty concentrating after COVID-19 do not typically demonstrate cognitive impairment on extensive neuropsychological testing.

description: A new type of two-dimensional layered semiconductor with weak electrostatic but not van der Waals interlayer interactions, Bi2O2Se, has been recently synthesized, which shown excellent air stability and ultrahigh carrier mobility. Herein, we combined theoretical and experimental approaches to study the Raman spectra of Bi2O2Se and related bismuth oxychalcogenides (Bi2O2Te and Bi2O2S). The experimental peaks were fully consistent with the calculated results, and were successfully assigned. Bi2O2S was predicted to have more Raman-active modes due to its lower symmetry. The shift of the predicted frequencies of Raman active modes was also found to get softened as the interlayer interaction decreases from bulk to monolayer Bi2O2Se and Bi2O2Te. To reveal the strain effects on the Raman shifts, a universal theoretical equation was established based on the symmetry of Bi2O2Se and Bi2O2Te. It was predicted that the doubly degenerate modes split under in-plane uniaxial/shear strains. Under a rotated uniaxial strain, the changes of Raman shifts are anisotropic for degenerate modes although Bi2O2Se and Bi2O2Te were usually regarded as isotropic systems similar to graphene. This implies a novel method to identify the crystallographic orientation from Raman spectra under strain. These results have important consequences for the incorporation of 2D Bismuth oxychalcogenides into nanoelectronic devices.

description: Objective: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is an important part of the aging process and may be a sign of neurodegenerative disease. Current measures of SCD are subject to the limits of retrospective recall of symptoms over a long span of time, which might be addressed by using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) methods. However, there are no currently available measures of SCD validated for use in EMA. Thus, our goal was to develop and pilot test the mobile Everyday Cognition Scale (mECog). Method: 31 community-dwelling older adults completed in lab measures of cognition and mental health symptoms, followed by daily mECog ratings on a smart phone for 28 days. Results: Most participants completed at least 75% of mECog assessments (n = 27, 87%), and the average number of assessments completed was 22. Further, respondents rated the mobile assessment platform and measures as easy to use and non-interfering with daily life. Test-retest reliability of mECog scores was very strong (RKRN = .99), and within-person reliability was moderate (RCN = .41). mECog scores demonstrated strong positive associations with scores from the original ECog (ρ = .62–69, p < .001) and short form ECog (ρ = .63-.69, p < .001) and non-significant associations with demographics (ρ = –0.25–.04, p = .21-.94) and mental health symptoms (ρ = –0.06-.34, p = .08–.99). mECog scores also exhibited small-to-moderate negative correlations with objective cognitive test scores, though these relationships did not reach statistical significance (ρ = –0.32 to −0.22, p = .10–.27). Conclusions: Results suggest that mobile assessment of SCD via the mECog is feasible and acceptable. Further, mECog scores demonstrated good psychometric properties, including evidence of strong reliability, convergent validity, and divergent validity.
AUGUSTUS’S TERRITORIAL REFORM, RESPECTFUL OF ETHNICAL GROUPS

description: The relations between the towns of Milan and Monza have never been very hearty. At last, after long political fighting, on May 12th, 2004, the Administration of the province of Milan definitively agreed to create a new province taken from its territory, called Monza and Brianza (the second is the name of a subregion of Lombardy including Monza as its main town); and, in 2009, the new province was due to be fully operative, by the election of its new Province Council. First, it included 50 Comuni; afterwards, in 2009, other 5 were added. The parting from Milan – that had always kept Monza, only 12 km from it, but well over 100.000 inhabitants, in its shadow, – was greeted with great happiness by the inhabitants. In fact, Brianza has got its own identity, which has nothing to do with the reality of Milanese territory. Going back to the past, it was a holiday resort for the Milanese bourgeoisie, who built many villas for pleasure, endeeped in the green between the dry upper Po plain and the first morainic hills, so that Brianza received the nickname of «garden of Lombardy». Even regarding crafts and manufacturing, the industries of Brianza were very different from the ones of Milan, owing especially to treatment of timber, which became famous all over the world. Moreover, in Brianza some cultural traditions still live, reminding an agricultural past, almost unknown in other northern environs of Milan. Cancelling the Province «Monza and Brianza» is a mistake, because this denies its peculiarities and includes it newly in an agglomeration with which it has very little to share. It sounds a nonsense to cancel a province, just born, but evidently under the wrong star.

Chiral Symmetry Restoration and $Z_N$ Symmetry

description: We demonstrate that chiral symmetry restoration in quenched finite temperature QCD depends crucially on the $Z_3$ phase of the Polyakov loop ${\cal P}$. This dependence is a general consequence of the coupling of the chiral order parameter to the Polyakov loop. We construct a model for chiral symmetry breaking and restoration which includes the effect of a nontrivial Polyakov loop by calculating the effective potential for the chiral condensate of a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model in a uniform temperature dependent $A_0$ gauge field background. Above the deconfinement temperature there are three possible phases corresponding to the $Z_3$ symmetric phases of the Polyakov loop in the pure gauge theory. In the phase in which ${\rm tr_c}({\cal P})$ is real and positive the first order deconfining transition induces chiral symmetry restoration in agreement with simulation results. In the two phases where $Re[{\rm tr_c}({\cal P})] < 0$ the sign of the leading finite temperature correction to the effective potential is reversed from the normal phase, and chiral symmetry is not restored at the deconfinement transition; this agrees with the recent simulation studies of Chandrasekharan and Christ. In the case of $SU(N)$ a rich set of possibilites emerges. The generality of the mechanism makes it likely to occur in full QCD as well; this will increase the lifetimes of metastable $Z_3$ phases.

POSSIBLE PARALLELS IN VARIABLE GEOMETRY
Creators: name: Conti Puorger, Adriana
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: The current paper focuses on the study of the similarity between the development of the Territorial Cooperation, representation of the cohesion’s politics at the European level, and the improving steps on the territorial reorganization that are taking place in Italy. The elaboration of a model of economic politics subjected to the «dictat» of equity and efficiency is indeed constrained by financial issues both at an European level and a national one. Furthermore, the problem of the distribution of the competency is affected from the burden of embracing the mentioned model in the respect of the administrative uniformity. However, such administrative uniformity does not coincide with the regional uniformity, in a geographical aspect, consequently compromising the criterion of the distributive equity. In order to overcome such problem it is needed to find «ad hoc» solutions stemming from the application of the principle of the cohesion. An interesting practical example of that is found in the Macro-Regions. Likewise, at an Italian scale, such principle seems to lead to the approach of the territorial reorganization either via the intercommunal associations or with the simplification of the government levels existing on the territory. Hence, the term «variable geometry» fits both scales and identifies the process of recognition of the institutional duties without additional tax raises. The analysis of what is happening at the macro-regional dimensional level in Europe and of the territorial reorganization in Italy, it is adopted in the paper as interpretation and evaluation of the enforcement of the principle of cohesion to the territorial dimension adopting a reorganization of the space capable to achieve the optimization of the public resources.

A Constrained Standard Model from a Compact Extra Dimension

description: A SU(3) \times SU(2) \times U(1) supersymmetric theory is constructed with a TeV sized extra dimension compactified on the orbifold S^1/(Z_2 \times Z_2'). The compactification breaks supersymmetry leaving a set of zero modes which correspond precisely to the states of the 1 Higgs doublet standard model. Supersymmetric Yukawa interactions are localized at orbifold fixed points. The top quark hypermultiplet radiatively triggers electroweak symmetry breaking, yielding a Higgs potential which is finite and exponentially insensitive to physics above the compactification scale. This potential depends on only a single free parameter, the compactification scale, yielding a Higgs mass prediction of 127 \pm 8 GeV. The masses of the all superpartners, and the Kaluza-Klein excitations are also predicted. The lightest supersymmetric particle is a top squark of mass 197 \pm 20 GeV. The top Kaluza-Klein tower leads to the ρparameter having quadratic sensitivity to unknown physics in the ultraviolet.

description: Optical microcavities are often used to realize enhanced nonlinear optical interactions for highly efficient second-harmonic generation. With increased pump power, the efficiency of nonlinear frequency conversion can be increased further, while some other unwanted nonlinear effects will also emerge, leading to complicated dynamics or instability. Here, we study the interplay between cascaded second- and third-order nonlinear processes and investigate their impact on the second-harmonic generation in microcavities. It is found that the non-degenerate optical parametric oscillation (OPO) appears and the presence of $χ^{(3)}$ process can modify the OPO threshold significantly when the multimode cavity is strongly pumped at the fundamental optical mode. One can even break the efficiency limitation of the second-harmonic mode restricted by the OPO by utilizing the interference between the OPO and the four-wave mixing. The present coherent interplay between nonlinear optical processes in microcavities is conducive to exploring new physics in the cavity nonlinear photonics.

THE TERRITORIAL QUESTION OF THE ROMA CAPITALE REGION
Creators: name: Olivieri, Francesco Maria
name: Brogna, Marco
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: The specific role of the State Capital city has been increasing interesting and now it results widely argue, because of the Rome’ Capital institution. This theme is trans-disciplinary and geographical studies are such important to the Italian territorial organization: it has originated by the debate about the Italian space at the end of XIX century and it has been linked to the centralism-federalism dichotomy. Anyway, the space organization applies to different driven concepts (i.e. functionalism, law, administrative). The aim of the paper is refers to a specific necessity of a careful consideration based on a territorial contribution to the local community needs. The methodology refers to European system law to local authorities of multilevel governance and the succeeding Titolo V Constitution reform (2001-2014). Indeed the law status of Rome Capital City has been now developing (l.42/2009). Thecase of Rome is such important to the allocation of authorities and powers at different scales. The acknowledgment of this role of Capital is a necessary condition but it is no sufficient too, in spite of the recognition of the government best level and the group of authorities. The last question of this topic is about a new proposal to individuate the best institution on two different characters: law for the authorities and territorial for the dimension.

Thermodynamic consistency of the optomechanical master equation

description: We investigate the thermodynamic consistency of the master equation description of heat transport through an optomechanical system attached to two heat baths, one optical and one mechanical. We employ three different master equations to describe this scenario: (i) The standard master equation used in optomechanics, where each bath acts only on the resonator that it is physically connected to; (ii) the so-called dressed-state master equation, where the mechanical bath acts on the global system; and (iii) what we call the global master equation, where both baths are treated non-locally and affect both the optical and mechanical subsystems. Our main contribution is to demonstrate that, under certain conditions including when the optomechanical coupling strength is weak, the second law of thermodynamics is violated by the first two of these pictures. In order to have a thermodynamically consistent description of an optomechanical system, therefore, one has to employ a global description of the effect of the baths on the system.

description: We assume that the nuclear potential for distances larger than 2.5 fm is given just by the exchanges of one and two pions and, for the latter, we adopt a model based on chiral symmetry and subthreshold pion-nucleon amplitudes, which contains no free parameters. The predictions produced by this model for nucleon-nucleon observables are calculated and shown to agree well with both experiment and those due to phenomenological potentials.

description: Introduction: Social determinants of health and adversity, including poverty, maltreatment, and neighborhood deprivation, are individual-level factors that may significantly affect baseline neurocognitive testing and management that have yet to be thoroughly explored within the computerized neurocognitive assessment.Objectives: Examine individual-level experiences of poverty, abuse, neighborhood deprivation, and social mobility on computerized cognitive testing.Methods: The sample included 3,845 student-athletes who completed a baseline Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT) and were enrolled in the Child-Household Integrated Longitudinal Data database. Multivariable linear regressions were used to assess independent variables of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program enrollment, abuse or neglect cases, Area Deprivation Index scores, and other demographic factors on four baseline ImPACT composite scores: verbal and visual memory, visuomotor, and reaction time.Results: Individual-level factors of persistent poverty and neighborhood deprivation were associated with lower composite scores; however, upward social mobility was not significantly associated with cognitive performance. The effects of mother’s race on computerized cognitive testing performance were attenuated when accounting for measures of adversity.Conclusion: Findings highlight the importance of social determinants of health in computerized neurocognitive testing to ensure more culturally sensitive and precise understanding of athletic baselines.

description: Several years ago it was conjectured in the so-called Roma Approach, that gauge fixing is an essential ingredient in the lattice formulation of chiral gauge theories. In this paper we discuss in detail how the gauge-fixing approach may be realized. As in the usual (gauge invariant) lattice formulation, the continuum limit corresponds to a gaussian fixed point, that now controls both the transversal and the longitudinal modes of the gauge field. A key role is played by a new phase transition separating a conventional Higgs or Higgs-confinement phase, from a phase with broken rotational invariance. In the continuum limit we expect to find a scaling region, where the lattice correlators reproduce the euclidean correlation functions of the target (chiral) gauge theory, in the corresponding continuum gauge.

description: We compare the continuous and discrete truncated Wigner approximations of various spin models' dynamics to exact analytical and numerical solutions. We account for all components of spin-spin correlations on equal footing, facilitated by a recently introduced geometric correlation matrix visualization technique [R. Mukherjee {\em et al.}, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 97}, 043606 (2018)]. We find that at modestly short times, the dominant error in both approximations is to substantially suppress spin correlations along one direction.
