description: Theoretically, various physical properties of AV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ (A=Zn, Cd and Mg) spinels have been extensively studied for last 15 years. Besides of this, no systematic comparative study has been done for these compounds, where the material specific parameters are used. Here, we report the comparative electronic behaviour of these spinels by using a combination of density functional theory and dynamical mean-field theory, where the self-consistent calculated Coulomb interaction $U$ and Hund's coupling $J$ (determined by Yukawa screening $λ$) are used. The main features, such as insulating band gaps ($E_{g}$), degree of itinerancy of V 3$d$ electrons and position of lower Hubbard band are observed for these parameters in these spinels. The calculated values of $E_{g}$ for ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$, CdV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ and MgV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ are found to be $\sim$0.9 eV, $\sim$0.95 eV and $\sim$1.15 eV, respectively, where the values of $E_{g}$ are close to experiment for ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ and MgV$_{2}$O$_{4}$. The position of lower Hubbard band are observed around $\sim$-1.05 eV, $\sim$-1.25 eV and $\sim$-1.15 eV for ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$, CdV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ and MgV$_{2}$O$_{4}$, respectively, which are also in good agreement with the experimental data for ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$. The order of average impurity hybridization function of V site are found to be ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$$>$MgV$_{2}$O$_{4}$$>$CdV$_{2}$O$_{4}$. Hence, the degree of localization of V 3$d$ electrons is largest for CdV$_{2}$O$_{4}$ and smallest for ZnV$_{2}$O$_{4}$, which is in accordance with our earlier results. Hence, present work shows the importance of material specific parameters to understand the comparative electronic behaviour of these compounds.

description: By making use of the chiral kinetic theory in the relaxation-time approximation, we derive an Israel-Stewart type formulation of the hydrodynamic equations for a chiral relativistic plasma made of neutral particles (e.g., neutrinos). The effects of chiral asymmetry are captured by including an additional continuity equation for the axial charge, as well as the leading-order quantum corrections due to the spin of particles. In a formulation of the chiral kinetic theory used, we introduce a symmetric form of the energy-momentum tensor that is suitable for the description of a weakly nonuniform chiral plasma. By construction, the energy and momentum are conserved to the same leading order in the Planck constant as the kinetic equation itself. By making use of such a chiral kinetic theory and the Chapman-Enskog approach, we obtain a set of second-order dissipative hydrodynamic equations. The effects of the fluid vorticity and velocity fluctuations on the dispersion relations of chiral vortical waves are analyzed.

description: In the last few decades, Brilliant green (BG) dye is widely employed to colour the fabric materials in various industries (e.g. textile, pulp and paper, etc.). The wastewater containing BG dye emerges as a major challenge among the researchers due to its toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic effects on human beings and marine life. In this context, the present study is mainly focused on the biodegradation of BG dye present in wastewater. The biodegradation of BG dye was performed in an indigenously designed recirculating packed bed bioreactor (RPBBR). Modified Polypropylene-Polyurethane foam (PP-PUF), a support packing material, was immobilised with a newly isolated bacterial consortium of Enterobacter asburiae strain SG43 (BGT1) and Alcaligenes sp. SY1 (BGT2). The bioreactor was operated under various organic loading rates (OLRs) of 2.7, 1.27, 0.93, 0.71, and 0.53 kg COD/m3.d−1 with a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 4 days. The bioreactor exhibited the maximum BG dye removal efficiency of 91%. Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR), UV-Vis spectroscopy, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) depicted the biodegradation of BG dye. Phaseolus mungo seeds germinated in BG dye biodegraded wastewater was significantly high (83.56%) than the untreated wastewater (32.4%), which was reasonably subjected to the detoxification of treated wastewater.

description: A lattice model for active matter is studied numerically, showing that it displays wettings transitions between three distinctive phases when in contact with an impenetrable wall. The particles in the model move persistently, tumbling with a small rate $α$, and interact via exclusion volume only. When increasing the tumbling rates $α$, the system transits from total wetting to partial wetting and unwetting phases. In the first phase, a wetting film covers the wall, with increasing heights when $α$ is reduced. The second phase is characterized by wetting droplets on the wall with a periodic spacing between them. Finally, the wall dries with few particles in contact with it. These phases present nonequilibrium transitions. The first transition, from partial to total wetting, is continuous and the fraction of dry sites vanishes continuously when decreasing the tumbling rate $α$. For the second transition, from partial wetting to dry, the mean droplet distance diverges logarithmically when approaching the critical tumbling rate, with saturation due to finite-size effects.

description: Electrochemical process has been widely applied to eliminate recalcitrant contaminants (i.e., organic and nitrogenous compounds) in landfill leachate. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of a hybrid electro-oxidation-dialysis (EOD) system to minimize organic and nitrogenous compounds through a synergistic process of electrochemical oxidation (EO) and electrodialysis (ED) as well as the dissolved organic matter was characterized in terms of fluorescent component and molecular weight distribution. The EOD was carried out using boron-doped diamond (BDD) and Pt alternately. The results have shown that pH adjustment to acidic conditions is beneficial to EO. At optimal pH (pH 4), BDD-based EO is superior to removing COD and NH4+ up to around 56% and 64%, respectively. During EOD process, the lower current density at 20.83 mA cm−2 is preferred for the recovery of nitrogenous ions (i.e. NH4+ and NO3–), especially for BDD-EOD. In addition, the dominant humic acid-like (HAL) and soluble microbial products-like (SMPL) substances in the mature leachate are mostly degraded to smaller molecules from 105 Da to 103 Da in both EOD processes. Overall, BDD-EOD favours indirect oxidation and has a higher energy consumption efficiency than Pt-EOD induced by direct oxidation for simultaneous removal of organic and nitrogenous compounds. BDD-EOD requires a lower total operation cost of around $2.33/m3 compared to Pt-EOD. It is concluded that the hybrid BDD-EOD process is technically feasible as a powerful pre-treatment approach to mature landfill leachate for refractory organics degradation and nitrogenous nutrients recovery.

description: We investigate the stability of the many-body localized (MBL) phase for a system in contact with a single ergodic grain, modelling a Griffiths region with low disorder. Our numerical analysis provides evidence that even a small ergodic grain consisting of only 3 qubits can delocalize a localized chain, as soon as the localization length exceeds a critical value separating localized and extended regimes of the whole system. We present a simple theory, consistent with the arguments in [Phys. Rev. B 95, 155129 (2017)], that assumes a system to be locally ergodic unless the local relaxation time, determined by Fermi's Golden Rule, is larger than the inverse level spacing. This theory predicts a critical value for the localization length that is perfectly consistent with our numerical calculations. We analyze in detail the behavior of local operators inside and outside the ergodic grain, and find excellent agreement of numerics and theory.

description: Forward osmosis is a water separation process that uses the natural energy of osmotic pressure to separate water from dissolved solutes through a semipermeable membrane. One of the major challenges using this process is the rejection water which contains high content of pollutants, hindering its practical application. Herein, for the first time, this work introduces a coupled electrochemical-physical process including iron-electrocoagulation/filtration/sedimentation as a cost-effective treatment to the forward osmosis reject water containing hexavalent chromium to be reclaimed. The synergistic treatment was optimized through a central composite design and response surface methodology to enhance hexavalent Cr removal and minimize operating costs, electrical energy consumption, and settled sludge volume. A 90.0% chromium removal was achieved under optimized conditions: electrolysis time of 59.7 min and current of 1.24 A (J = 6.32 mA cm−2). In addition, operating costs of 0.014 USD m−3, electrical energy consumption of 0.005 kWh m−3, and settled sludge volume of 445 mL L−1 were obtained.

description: Observed galaxy luminosities (derived from redshifts) hold information on the large-scale peculiar velocity field in the form of spatially correlated scatter, which allows for bounds on bulk flows and the growth rate of matter density perturbations using large galaxy redshift surveys. We apply this luminosity approach to galaxies from the recent SDSS Data Release 13. Our goal is twofold. First, we take advantage of the recalibrated photometry to identify possible systematic errors relevant to our previous analysis of earlier data. Second, we seek improved constraints on the bulk flow and the normalized growth rate f$σ_{8}$ at z ~ 0.1. Our results confirm the robustness of our method. Bulk flow amplitudes, estimated in two redshift bins with 0.02 < z$_{1}$ < 0.07 < z$_{2}$ < 0.22, are generally smaller than in previous measurements, consistent with both the updated photometry and expectations for the $Λ$CDM model. The obtained growth rate, f$σ_{8}$ = 0.48 +/- 0.16, is larger than, but still compatible with, its previous estimate, and closer to the reference value of Planck. Rather than precision, the importance of these results is due to the fact that they follow from an independent method that relies on accurate photometry, which is a top requirement for next-generation photometric catalogs.

description: We analyze the optical counterpart to the ultra-compact high velocity cloud AGC 226067, utilizing imaging taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) on the Hubble Space Telescope. The color magnitude diagram of the main body of AGC 226067 reveals an exclusively young stellar population, with an age of $\sim$7--50 Myr, and is consistent with a metallicity of [Fe/H]$\sim$$-$0.3 as previous work has measured via HII region spectroscopy. Additionally, the color magnitude diagram is consistent with a distance of $D$$\approx$17 Mpc, suggesting an association with the Virgo cluster. A secondary stellar system located $\sim$1.6' ($\sim$8 kpc) away in projection has a similar stellar population. The lack of an old red giant branch ($\gtrsim$5 Gyr) is contrasted with a serendipitously discovered Virgo dwarf in the ACS field of view (Dw J122147+132853), and the total diffuse light from AGC~226067 is consistent with the luminosity function of the resolved $\sim$7--50 Myr stellar population. The main body of AGC~226067 has a $M_{V}$=$-$11.3$\pm$0.3, or $M_{stars}$=5.4$\pm$1.3$\times$10$^4$ $M_{\odot}$ given the stellar population. We searched 20 deg$^2$ of imaging data adjacent to AGC~226067 in the Virgo Cluster, and found two similar stellar systems dominated by a blue stellar population, far from any massive galaxy counterpart -- if this population has similar star formation properties as AGC~226067, it implies $\sim$0.1 $M_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$ in Virgo intracluster star formation. Given its unusual stellar population, AGC~226067 is likely a stripped remnant and is plausibly the result of compressed gas from the ram pressure stripped M86 subgroup ($\sim$350 kpc away in projection) as it falls into the Virgo Cluster.

Every such lattice is interpreted as an invariant of the twisted Yangian. This identification allows us to relate the partition function of the vertex model to the Bethe wave function of an open spin chain. We obtain the partition function in terms of creation operators on a reference state from the algebraic Bethe ansatz and as a sum of permutations and reflections from the coordinate Bethe ansatz.

description: As a vital security primitive, the true random number generator (TRNG) is a mandatory component to build roots of trust for any encryption system. However, existing TRNGs suffer from bottlenecks of low throughput and high area-energy consumption. In this work, we propose DH-TRNG, a dynamic hybrid TRNG circuitry architecture with ultra-high throughput and area-energy efficiency. Our DH-TRNG exhibits portability to distinct process FPGAs and passes both NIST and AIS-31 tests without any post-processing. The experiments show it incurs only 8 slices with the highest throughput of 670Mbps and 620Mbps on Xilinx Virtex-6 and Artix-7, respectively. Compared to the state-of-the-art TRNGs, our proposed design has the highest Throughput/SlicesPower with a 2.63 times increase.

description: The gap between first and second ranked galaxy magnitudes in groups is often considered a tracer of their merger histories, which in turn may affect galaxy properties, and also serves to test galaxy luminosity functions (LFs). We remeasure the conditional luminosity function (CLF) of the Main Galaxy Sample of the SDSS in an appropriately cleaned subsample of groups from the Yang catalog. We find that, at low group masses, our best-fit CLF have steeper satellite high ends, yet higher ratios of characteristic satellite to central luminosities in comparison with the CLF of Yang et al. (2008). The observed fractions of groups with large and small magnitude gaps as well as the Tremaine & Richstone (1977) statistics, are not compatible with either a single Schechter LF or with a Schechter-like satellite plus lognormal central LF. These gap statistics, which naturally depend on the size of the subsamples, and also on the maximum projected radius, $R_{\rm max}$, for defining the 2nd brightest galaxy, can only be reproduced with two-component CLFs if we allow small gap groups to preferentially have two central galaxies, as expected when groups merge. Finally, we find that the trend of higher gap for higher group velocity dispersion, $σ_{\rm v}$, at given richness, discovered by Hearin et al. (2013), is strongly reduced when we consider $σ_{\rm v}$ in bins of richness, and virtually disappears when we use group mass instead of $σ_{\rm v}$. This limits the applicability of gaps in refining cosmographic studies based on cluster counts.

description: Biochar derived from lignocellulosic biomass has been used as a low-cost adsorbent in wastewater treatment applications. Due to its rich porous structure and good electrical conductivity, biochar can be used as a cost-effective electrode material for capacitive deionization of water. In this work, willow biochar was prepared through carbonization of shrub willow chips, activated with potassium hydroxide, and loaded with manganese dioxide (WBC-K-MnO2 nanocomposite). The prepared materials were used to electrochemically adsorb Pb2+ from aqueous solutions. Under the applied potential of 1.0 V, the WBC-K-MnO2 electrode exhibited a high Pb2+ specific electrosorption capacity (23.3 mg/g) as compared to raw willow biochar (4.0 mg/g) and activated willow biochar (9.2 mg/g). KOH activation followed by MnO2 loading on the surface of raw biochar enhanced its BET surface area (178.7 m2/g) and mesoporous volume ratio (42.1%). Moreover, the WBC-K-MnO2 nanocomposite exhibited the highest specific capacitance value of 234.3 F/g at a scan rate of 5 mV/s. The electrosorption isotherms and kinetic data were well explained by the Freundlich and pseudo-second order models, respectively. The WBC-K-MnO2 electrode demonstrated excellent reusability with a Pb2+ electrosorption efficiency of 76.3% after 15 cycles. Thus, the WBC-K-MnO2 nanocomposite can serve as a promising candidate for capacitive deionization of heavy metal contaminated water.

description: This paper provides an in-depth analysis of how computational algebraic geometry can be used to deal with the problem of counting and classifying $r\times s$ partial Latin rectangles based on $n$ symbols of a given size, shape, type or structure. The computation of Hilbert functions and triangular systems of radical ideals enables us to solve this problem for all $r,s,n\leq 6$. As a by-product, explicit formulas are determined for the number of partial Latin rectangles of size up to six. We focus then on the study of non-compressible regular partial Latin squares and their equivalent incidence structure called seminet, whose distribution into main classes is explicitly determined for point rank up to eight. We prove in particular the existence of two new configurations of point rank eight.

description: Forward osmosis is a water separation process that uses the natural energy of osmotic pressure to separate water from dissolved solutes through a semipermeable membrane. One of the major challenges using this process is the rejection water which contains high content of pollutants, hindering its practical application. Herein, for the first time, this work introduces a coupled electrochemical-physical process including iron-electrocoagulation/filtration/sedimentation as a cost-effective treatment to the forward osmosis reject water containing hexavalent chromium to be reclaimed. The synergistic treatment was optimized through central composite design and response surface methodology to enhance hexavalent Cr removal and minimize operating costs, electrical energy consumption, and settled sludge volume. A 90.0% chromium removal was achieved under optimized conditions: electrolysis time of 59.7 min and current of 1.24 A (J = 6.32 mA·cm-2). In addition, operating costs of 0.014 USD·m-3, electrical energy consumption of 0.005 kWh·m-3, and settled sludge volume of 445 mL·L-1 were obtained.

description: Biochar derived from lignocellulosic biomass has been used as a low-cost adsorbent in wastewater treatment applications. Due to its rich porous structure and good electrical conductivity, biochar can be used as a cost-effective electrode material for capacitive deionization of water. In this work, willow biochar was prepared through carbonization of shrub willow chips, activated with potassium hydroxide, and loaded with manganese dioxide (WBC-K-MnO2 nanocomposite). The prepared materials were used to electrochemically adsorb Pb2+ from aqueous solutions. Under the applied potential of 1.0 V, the WBC-K-MnO2 electrode exhibited a high Pb2+ specific electrosorption capacity (23.3 mg/g) as compared to raw willow biochar (4.0 mg/g) and activated willow biochar (9.2 mg/g). KOH activation followed by MnO2 loading on the surface of raw biochar enhanced its BET surface area (178.7 m2/g) and mesoporous volume ratio (42.1%). Moreover, the WBC-K-MnO2 nanocomposite exhibited the highest specific capacitance value of 234.3 F/g at a scan rate of 5 mV/s. The electrosorption isotherms and kinetic data were well explained by the Freundlich and pseudo-second order models, respectively. The WBC-K-MnO2 electrode demonstrated excellent reusability with a Pb2+ electrosorption efficiency of 76.3% after 15 cycles. Thus, the WBC-K-MnO2 nanocomposite can serve as a promising candidate for capacitive deionization of heavy metal contaminated water.
The Pfaffian state in an electron gas with small Landau level gaps

description: Landau level mixing plays an important role in the Pfaffian (or anti-Pfaffian) states. In ZnO the Landau level gap is essentially an order of magnitude smaller than that in a GaAs quantum well. We introduce the screened Coulomb interaction in a single Landau level to tackle that situation. Here we study the overlap of the ground state and the Pfaffian (or anti-Pfaffian) state at evendenominator fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states present in ZnO. The overlap is strongly system size-dependent which suggests a newly proposed particle-hole symmetry Pfaffian ground state in the extreme Landau level mixing limit. When the ratio of Coulomb interaction to the Landau level gap \k{appa} varies, we find a possible topological phase transition in the range 2 < \k{appa} < 3, which was actually observed in an experiment. We then study how the width of quantum well combined with screening influences the overlap.

description: We provide a mapping between past null and future null infinity in three-dimensional flat space, using symmetry considerations. From this we derive a mapping between the corresponding asymptotic symmetry groups. By studying the metric at asymptotic regions, we find that the mapping is energy preserving and yields an infinite number of conservation laws.

description: Through qualitative research methods addressing the lack of faculty of color in higher education, this study examined the influence of faculty diversity on underrepresented minority (URM) community college students’ sense of belonging. Using critical race theory (CRT) as a philosophical foundation and Strayhorn’s sense of belonging model as a theoretical foundation, this investigation underlined how lack of faculty diversity can negatively impact URM community college students. This study found that faculty diversity can enhance sense of belonging for URM community college students.

Sexual orientation and gender identity in the Belgian asylum system
Creators: name: Casteleyn Liselot
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023
Subjects: SOGI, sexuality, gender, asylum, refugee, reception, LGBTIQ+ organisation

description: The research considers the experiences of people who apply for international protection in Belgium on the ground of their sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI). Participatory observations, semi-structured interviews and focus groups reveal the diverse and multi-layered experiences of SOGI applicants: navigating intersectional discrimination, waiting in reception centres, looking for support with LGBTIQ+ organisations, and going to the asylum interview. Their perception of sexuality, gender, refugeeness and Belgium are (re-)shaped by their interactions with the different actors and contexts they encounter while moving through the asylum system.

description: Spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy investigations reveal a significant increase of the magnetic period of spin spirals in three-atomic-layer-thick Fe films on Ir(111), from about 4nm at 8K to about 65nm at room temperature. We attribute this considerable influence of temperature on the magnetic length scale of noncollinear spin states to different exchange interaction coefficients in the different Fe layers. We thus propose a classical spin model which reproduces the experimental observations and in which the crucial feature is the presence of magnetically coupled atomic layers with different interaction strengths. This model might also apply for many other systems, especially magnetic multilayers.
