description: Using density functional (DF) and Monte Carlo methods, we have studied the properties of Ne adsorbed on a Cs surface, focusing on the region at and near saturated vapor pressure (SVP). In the case of Ne/Rb, the experimental data of Hess, Sabatini and Chan are consistent with the calculations based on an ab initio fluid-substrate potential, while in the Ne/Cs case there is indication that the potential is approx 9% too deep. In that case, the calculations yield partial drying behavior consistent with the experimental finding of depressed fluid density near the surface, above SVP. However, we find no evidence of a drying transition, a result consistent with a mean field calculation of Ebner and Saam.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: In order to overcome some existing challenges with the use of laser guide stars (LGS), including complexity,expense, and implementation challenges, we describe in this work WIVERN which is a testbed for laboratoryexperiments in laser-based wavefront sensing that don\'t produce LGS. It emulates laser uplink from a 8 m telescopewith 0.8 arcsec seeing and laser back-scattering from up to 20 km. Currently there are three wavefront sensingcapabilities designed into the experiment: two using a wide-field of view (1.0 arcmin) Shack Hartmann WavefrontSensor (WFS) observing a constellation of point sources at infinity (reference targets, for conventional, star-oriented wavefront sensing), or observing an image from emulated atmospheric Rayleigh/sodium back-scattering(for wide-field correlation wavefront sensing), and a third based on the PPPP concept. For both back-scatteringexperiments (speckle correlation or PPPP) a laser beam can be launched from the pupil through the phasescreens, scattered from a plane (elastic) or a volume (inelastic), and then returned through the pupil and intothe WFS. In this work, we discuss the initial results from the wide-field speckle-based WFS in comparison withthe star-oriented guide-star WFS. This work is not a complete description of WIVERN, which includes: laserprojection via a launch inside or outside of the pupil, a 7 A 7 pupil-conjugate deformable mirror, and a wide-fieldcamera for PSF analysis.

description: We present ALMA observations of the $98.5~\mathrm{GHz}$ dust continuum and the $\mathrm{^{13}CO}~J = 1 - 0$ and $\mathrm{C^{18}O}~J = 1 - 0$ line emissions of the protoplanetary disk associated with HD~142527. The $98.5~\mathrm{GHz}$ continuum shows a strong azimuthal-asymmetric distribution similar to that of the previously reported $336~\mathrm{GHz}$ continuum, with a peak emission in dust concentrated region in the north. The disk is optically thin in both the $98.5~\mathrm{GHz}$ dust continuum and the $\mathrm{C^{18}O}~J = 1 - 0$ emissions. We derive the distributions of gas and dust surface densities, $Σ_\mathrm{g}$ and $Σ_\mathrm{d}$, and the dust spectral opacity index, $β$, in the disk from ALMA Band 3 and Band 7 data. In the analyses, we assume the local thermodynamic equilibrium and the disk temperature to be equal to the peak brightness temperature of $\mathrm{^{13}CO}~J = 3 - 2$ with a continuum emission. The gas-to-dust ratio, $\mathrm{G/D}$, varies azimuthally with a relation $\mathrm{G/D} \propto Σ_\mathrm{d}^{-0.53}$, and $β$ is derived to be $\approx 1$ and $\approx 1.7$ in the northern and southern regions of the disk, respectively. These results are consistent with the accumulation of larger dust grains in a higher pressure region. In addition, our results show that the peak $Σ_\mathrm{d}$ is located ahead of the peak $Σ_\mathrm{g}$. If the latter corresponds to a vortex of high gas pressure, the results indicate that the dust is trapped ahead of the vortex, as predicted by some theoretical studies.

description: Health sciences research often involves both right- and interval-censored events because the occurrence of a symptomatic disease can only be observed up to the end of follow-up, while the occurrence of an asymptomatic disease can only be detected through periodic examinations. We formulate the effects of potentially time-dependent covariates on the joint distribution of multiple right- and interval-censored events through semiparametric proportional hazards models with random effects that capture the dependence both within and between the two types of events. We consider nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation and develop a simple and stable EM algorithm for computation. We show that the resulting estimators are consistent and the parametric components are asymptotically normal and efficient with a covariance matrix that can be consistently estimated by profile likelihood or nonparametric bootstrap. In addition, we leverage the joint modelling to provide dynamic prediction of disease incidence based on the evolving event history. Furthermore, we assess the performance of the proposed methods through extensive simulation studies. Finally, we provide an application to a major epidemiological cohort study.

description: Attenuated total reflection (ATR) by surface plasmon polariton (SPP) is a method for evaluating the dispersion relation of SPP from the position of a dip in the reflection spectrum. However, recent studies have shown that the dips are displaced from SPP resonance because they are produced by a type of Fano resonance, i.e., the interference between the resonant reflection process accompanied by resonant excitation of SPP and the direct reflection process without resonant excitation. This result suggests that the system properties difficult to be achieved in the dispersion relation of SPP can be characterized using the ATR method. In this study, we investigate the effect of surface roughness due to nanosized dimples created in the initial stage of pitting corrosion on the ATR spectrum, from the viewpoint of Fano resonance. Using the temporal coupled-mode method, it is shown that the Fano resonance in ATR is caused by the phase change of direct reflection because of the absorption on the metal surface, and the spectral shape is determined by this phase, along with the ratio of the external (radiative) decay rate to the total decay rate of the resonant mode. Moreover, it is clarified that the internal and external decay rates extracted from the ATR spectrum provide information on corrosion, such as the effective thickness of the metal film and the randomness in dimple distribution.

description: We conducted a prospective observational cohort study in 458 pregnant and puerperal women, with confirmed COVID-19 at Hospital San Jose, Santiago, Chile, to determine the impact of COVID-19 on pregnancy and confirm safety and feasibility of a management protocol based on clinical presentation of the disease. 25.5% (117/458) of women were severe and 74.4% (341/458) mild presentation. Three percent (9/341) of mild presentations required a subsequent hospitalization. Overall, 26/458 women (5.6%) were admitted to ICU, and 13/458 (2.8%) required mechanical ventilation. One maternal death occurred at 49-days postpartum. Severe presentation, infection above 24 weeks, and comorbidities were associated with an adverse maternal outcome. Of total deliveries, 16.5% (36/217) were <37 weeks. Perinatal mortality was 6/226 (2.7%), mostly due to the fetal component. A quarter of the women had severe COVID-19 that, combined with occurrence of disease in the second half of pregnancy, resulted in substantial maternal compromise. Perinatal morbidity and mortality in women with severe disease were high and warrant consideration. Outpatient management was safe for mild cases.

description: Aspect category detection is an essential task for sentiment analysis and opinion mining. However, the cost of categorical data labeling, e.g., label the review aspect information for a large number of product domains, can be inevitable but unaffordable. In this study, we propose a novel problem, cross-domain aspect category transfer and detection, which faces three challenges: various feature spaces, different data distributions, and diverse output spaces. To address these problems, we propose an innovative solution, Traceable Heterogeneous Graph Representation Learning (THGRL). Unlike prior text-based aspect detection works, THGRL explores latent domain aspect category connections via massive user behavior information on a heterogeneous graph. Moreover, an innovative latent variable "Walker Tracer" is introduced to characterize the global semantic/aspect dependencies and capture the informative vertexes on the random walk paths. By using THGRL, we project different domains' feature spaces into a common one, while allowing data distributions and output spaces stay differently. Experiment results show that the proposed method outperforms a series of state-of-the-art baseline models.

description: This paper shows the implications of credit and labor market imperfections on gender differences in agricultural labor productivity, especially highlighting how both imperfections negatively affect female productivity by discouraging off-farm income generating activities and restricting access to inputs. The paper theoretically models the relationship between gender differences in agricultural labor productivity and market imperfections and it provides empirical evidence consistent with our theoretical model by decomposing the contribution of different factors to such gender differences. We find that agricultural labor productivity is on average 44 percent lower on plots belonging to female-headed households than on those belonging to male-headed households.

description: We compare the systematics of the magnetic field geometry in the "red" low-energy peaked BL Lacs (LBLs) and "blue" high-energy peaked BL Lacs (HBLs) using VLBI polarimetric images. The LBLs are primarily "radio--selected" BL Lacs and the HBLs are primarily "X-ray selected". In contrast to the LBLs, which show predominantly transverse jet magnetic fields, the HBLs show predominantly longitudinal fields. Thus, while the SED peaks of core-dominated quasars, LBLs and HBLs form a sequence of increasing frequency, the magnetic field geometry does not follow an analogous sequence. We briefly investigate possible connections between the observed parsec-scale magnetic field structures and circular polarization measurements in the literature on various spatial scales.

description: To explore the effects of pregestational body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) on maternal and neonatal outcomes of women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). We conducted retrospective cohort analyses of outcomes among women with GDM who delivered at Shamir Medical Center, Israel (2017–2018). We included 673 women with GDM in our analysis, 217 (32.24%) with appropriate GWG (aGWG), 247 (36.7%) with excessive GWG (eGWG), and 209 (31%) with insufficient GWG (iGWG). Cesarean section (CS) was less prevalent among women with iGWG (19.6%), compared with women with eGWG (31.2%) and aGWG (31.1%) (p = .008). Small for gestational weight (SGA) newborns were more prevalent in women with iGWG 9.1%, compared with 2% and 0.9% for women with eGWG and aGWG, respectively (p<.001). Large for gestational age (LGA) newborns were significantly more prevalent in women with eGWG 17.4% compared with 4.8% and 9.7% in patients with iGWG and aGWG women, respectively (p<.001). SGA and LGA newborns were more prevalent in women with iGWG and e-GWG across all pre-gestational BMI groups >18.5 kg/m2. A complex interplay exists between pregestational weight, GWG, and GDM and pregnancy outcomes, specifically SGA and LGA newborns. A strict follow-up considering the pregestational BMI, GWG, blood glucose levels, treatment modality, and fetal abdominal circumference could assist in managing the complex interplay of patients with GDM for better neonatal outcomes.

This study aimed to examine the associations of sleep duration on preterm birth risk based on the dose–response meta-analysis. Electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Ovid) were searched for relevant studies from database inception to September 2020. Studies describing the associations of maternal sleep duration with preterm birth risk were included. A random-effects model was adopted to calculate the summarized relative risk (SRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) as the effect sizes for all studies. Moreover, dose–response analysis was used for combining studies that used categories of sleep duration as exposure. In addition, subgroup analysis and meta-regression analysis were conducted to adjust potential confounders and investigate the source of heterogeneity. A total of 3771 unique studies were screened, and eight cohort studies and one case-control study were identified, with a total of 2000 preterm birth cases. Pooled data indicated that extreme sleep duration (short sleep duration or long sleep duration) in pregnancy was closely related to preterm birth in comparison with normal sleep duration (SRR = 1.13, 95%CI: 1.05–1.22) and there was no significant heterogeneity among studies (I2 = 7.0%, p = .37). Begg’s funnel plot failed to uncover any evidence of publication bias. The non-linearity in the association of sleep duration with preterm birth showed significance (p < .01). Considering pregnant women slept for 7 h as a reference, 4 h short sleepers had a higher predicted risk of preterm birth (RR = 1.10, 95%CI: 1.01–1.19). Additionally, as compared with women with normal sleep duration, the preterm birth risk with short sleep durations (SRR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.05–1.37) was elevated among pregnant women, and long sleep duration was related to preterm birth after adjusting for age (SRR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.01–1.42). There is an association of extreme sleep duration in pregnancy with preterm birth. In a non-linear dose-response meta-analysis, a U-shaped relationship between sleep duration and risk of preterm birth was observed and pregnant women who slept 4 h/day had a significantly higher risk of preterm birth than those who slept normally.

description: Spin relaxation is investigated theoretically in two-dimensional systems. Various semiconductor structures of both n- and p-types are studied in detail. The most important spin relaxation mechanisms are considered. The spin relaxation times are calculated taking into account the contributions to the spin--orbit interaction due to both the bulk inversion asymmetry and the structure inversion asymmetry. It is shown that in-plane anisotropy of electron spin relaxation appears in III--V asymmetrical heterostructures. This anisotropy may be controlled by external parameters, and the spin relaxation times differ by several orders of magnitude.

description: We obtain new general results on the structure of the space of translation invariant continuous valuations on convex sets (a version of the hard Lefschetz theorem). Using these and our previous results we obtain explicit characterization of unitarily invariant translation invariant continuous valuations. It implies new integral geometric formulas for real submanifolds in Hermitian spaces generalizing the classical kinematic formulas in Euclidean spaces due to Poincaré, Chern, Santaló, and others.

The Nusselt numbers of horizontal convection

description: We consider the problem of horizontal convection in which non-uniform buoyancy, $b_{\rm s}(x,y)$, is imposed on the top surface of a container and all other surfaces are insulating. Horizontal convection produces a net horizontal flux of buoyancy, $\mathbf{J}$, defined by vertically and temporally averaging the interior horizontal flux of buoyancy. We show that $\overline{\mathbf{J}\cdot\mathbf{\nabla}b_{\rm s}}=-κ\langle|\boldsymbol{\nabla}b|^2\rangle$; overbar denotes a space-time average over the top surface, angle brackets denote a volume-time average and $κ$ is the molecular diffusivity of buoyancy $b$. This connection between $\mathbf{J}$ and $κ\langle|\boldsymbol{\nabla}b|^2\rangle$ justifies the definition of the horizontal-convective Nusselt number, $Nu$, as the ratio of $κ\langle|\boldsymbol{\nabla}b|^2\rangle$ to the corresponding quantity produced by molecular diffusion alone. We discuss the advantages of this definition of $Nu$ over other definitions of horizontal-convective Nusselt number currently in use. We investigate transient effects and show that $κ\langle|\boldsymbol{\nabla}b|^2\rangle$ equilibrates more rapidly than other global averages, such as the domain averaged kinetic energy and bottom buoyancy. We show that $κ\langle|\boldsymbol{\nabla} b|^2\rangle$ is essentially the volume-averaged rate of Boussinesq entropy production within the enclosure. In statistical steady state, the interior entropy production is balanced by a flux of entropy through the top surface. This leads to an equivalent "surface Nusselt number", defined as the surface average of vertical buoyancy flux through the top surface times the imposed surface buoyancy $b_{\rm s}(x,y)$. In experiments it is likely easier to evaluate the surface entropy flux, rather than the volume integral of $|\mathbf{\nabla}b|^2$ demanded by $κ\langle|\mathbf{\nabla}b|^2\rangle$.

description: We consider the possible charge and orbital ordering in a Hollandite compound Bi_xV_8O_{16}, which is a new one-dimensional triangular-lattice t_{2g}-orbital system. Using the strong-coupling perturbation theory, we derive the effective spin-orbit Hamiltonian in the approximation neglecting the small off-diagonal hopping parameters or orbital fluctuation, whereby we obtain the spin Hamiltonians in the partial space of each orbital-ordering pattern. We then apply an exact-diagonalization technique on small clusters to these spin Hamiltonians and calculate the ground-state phase diagram. We find that a variety of orbital-ordering patterns appear in the parameter space, which include the state characterized by the partial singlet formation consistent with recent NMR experiment.

description: We discuss the phase diagram of the quantum dimer model on the hexagonal (honeycomb) lattice. In addition to the columnar and staggered valence bond solids which have been discussed in previous work, we establish the existence of a plaquette valence bond solid. The transition between the plaquette and columnar phases at $v/t=-0.2 \pm 0.05$ is argued to be first order. We note that this model should describe valence bond dominated phases of frustrated Heisenberg models on the hexagonal lattice and discuss its relation to recent exact diagonalisation work by J.B. Fouet etal on the J_1-J_2 model on the same lattice. Our results also shed light on the properties of the transverse field Ising antiferromagnet on the triangular lattice and the classical Ising antiferromagnet on the stacked triangular lattice, which are related to dimer models by duality.

description: The Jeans equations relate the second-order velocity moments to the density and potential of a stellar system. For general three-dimensional stellar systems, there are three equations, but these are not very helpful, as they contain six independent moments. By assuming that the potential is triaxial and of separable Staeckel form, the mixed moments vanish in confocal ellipsoidal coordinates. The three Jeans equations and three remaining non-vanishing moments form a closed system of three highly-symmetric coupled first-order partial differential equations in three variables. They were first derived by Lynden-Bell in 1960, but have resisted solution by standard methods. Here we present the general solution by superposition of singular solutions.

description: Aptamers are structured oligonucleotides that specifically bind their targets. Oligonucleotides can be assembled in large nanostructures via intermolecular duplexes or G-quadruplexes. Addition of aptamers can be used to create nanostructures that bind specifically certain targets. Here two types of self-assembling locks were used to create bimodular aptamer constructions. Well-known aptamer to thrombin was chosen as a model object. The assembly of duplex locks was more efficient at low concentrations. The functional activity of aptamer modules was nearly the same as in HD1. However, the affinity of bimodular aptamers with G-quadruplex locks to immobilized thrombin was 5-10 times higher.
