Conversation

description: Citizen science currently enjoys high levels of investment in many industrialized countries, with various stakeholders (policymakers, funding agencies, scientists, citizens) valuing and prioritizing measures of (civic) inclusion, co-creation, and impact. In this presentation, we ask what these measures entail drawing on our experiences and roles as initiators, orchestrators, facilitators, and/or evaluators of citizen science processes in Europe, Asia, and other parts of the world. The presentation takes the form of an open-ended exploration, with each of us raising additional questions (e.g., how to best fulfil the promise of inclusion in citizen science; whether exclusion is – or can be – warranted; how to translate citizen science research into responsible ‘impact’; and how to effectively develop and use citizen science methods, among others). In this exploratory process, we seek to unearth our own assumptions about civic participation in science (e.g., citizen science promotes wider public engagement with science and technology) and point at tensions and paradoxes inherent in citizen science practice (e.g., appeals made by stakeholders to appreciate all ‘knowledges’ while reinforcing expert-nonexpert distinctions). Our conversation is meant to be incomplete and provocative, disentangling our personal convictions, struggles and developments, and bringing complex practical and speculative considerations into the picture so that others could get an idea of what is at stake in citizen science, for individuals with their own experiences and commitments, and for broader communities. We invite Science and Technology Studies researchers to think through these issues with us and explore them through further discussion and exchanges.

description: We present the first fully-nonlinear numerical study of the dynamics of highly spinning black-hole binaries. We evolve binaries from quasicircular orbits (as inferred from Post-Newtonian theory), and find that the last stages of the orbital motion of black-hole binaries are profoundly affected by their individual spins. In order to cleanly display its effects, we consider two equal mass holes with individual spin parameters S/m^2=0.757, both aligned and anti-aligned with the orbital angular momentum (and compare with the spinless case), and with an initial orbital period of 125M. We find that the aligned case completes three orbits and merges significantly after the anti-aligned case, which completes less than one orbit. The total energy radiated for the former case is ~7% while for the latter it is only ~2%. The final Kerr hole remnants have rotation parameters a/M=0.89 and a/M=0.44 respectively, showing the unlikeliness of creating a maximally rotating black hole out of the merger of two spinning holes.

description: It is well known that conventional simulation algorithms are inefficient for the statistical description of macroscopic systems exactly at the critical point due to the divergence of the corresponding relaxation time (critical slowing down). On the other hand the dynamics in the order parameter space is simplified significantly in this case due to the onset of self-similarity in the associated fluctuation patterns. As a consequence the effective action at the critical point obtains a very simple form. In the present work we show that this simplified action can be used in order to simulate efficiently the statistical properties of a macroscopic system exactly at the critical point. Using the proposed algorithm we generate an ensemble of configurations resembling the characteristic fractal geometry of the critical system related to the self-similar order parameter fluctuations. As an example we simulate the one-component real scalar field theory at the transition point $T=T_c$ as a representative system belonging to the $3-D$ Ising universality class.

description: Single molecule scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS), with dephasing due to elastic and inelastic scattering, is of some current interest. Motivated by this, we report an extended Huckel theory (EHT) based mean-field Non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) transport model with electron-phonon scattering treated within the self-consistent Born approximation (SCBA). Furthermore, a procedure based on EHT basis set modification is described. We use this model to study the effect of the temperature dependent dephasing, due to low lying modes in far-infrared range for which hw<

description: The evolution of Bose-Einstein condensates is amply described by the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii mean-field theory which assumes all bosons to reside in a single time-dependent one-particle state throughout the propagation process. In this work, we go beyond mean-field and develop an essentially-exact many-body theory for the propagation of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation of $N$ interacting identical bosons. In our theory, the time-dependent many-boson wavefunction is written as a sum of permanents assembled from orthogonal one-particle functions, or orbitals, where {\it both} the expansion coefficients {\it and} the permanents (orbitals) themselves are {\it time-dependent} and fully determined according to a standard time-dependent variational principle. By employing either the usual Lagrangian formulation or the Dirac-Frenkel variational principle we arrive at two sets of coupled equations-of-motion, one for the orbitals and one for the expansion coefficients. The first set comprises of first-order differential equations in time and non-linear integro-differential equations in position space, whereas the second set consists of first-order differential equations with time-dependent coefficients. We call our theory multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree for bosons, or MCTDHB($M$), where $M$ specifies the number of time-dependent orbitals used to construct the permanents. Numerical implementation of the theory is reported and illustrative numerical examples of many-body dynamics of trapped Bose-Einstein condensates are provided and discussed.

description: We show that the equations of motion governing the dynamics of strings in a compact internal space can be written as dispersion relations, with a local speed that depends on the velocity and curvature of the string in the large dimensions. From a $(3+1)$-dimensional perspective these can be viewed as dispersion relations for waves propagating in the string interior and are analogous to those for current-carrying topological defects. This allows us to construct a unified framework with which to study and interpret the internal structure of various field-theoretic and fundamental string species, in a simple physically intuitive coordinate system, without the need for dimensional reduction or approximate effective actions. This, in turn, allows us to identify the precise conditions under which higher-dimensional strings and current-carrying defects are observationally indistinguishable, for macroscopic observers. Our approach naturally incorporates the description of so-called `cosmic springs', whose dynamics are expressed in terms of an effective Finsler geometry, for circular loops, or generalised Finsler geometry, for non-circular configurations. This demonstrates the importance of these novel geometric structures and their utility in modelling complex physical phenomena in cosmology and astrophysics.

description: Bloch and Okounkov introduced an n-point correlation function on the infinite wedge space and found an elegant closed formula in terms of theta functions. This function has connections to Gromov-Witten theory, Hilbert schemes, symmetric groups, etc, and it can also be interpreted as correlation functions on integrable gl_\infty-modules of level one. Such gl_\infty-correlation functions at higher levels were then calculated by Cheng and Wang. In this paper, generalizing the type A results, we formulate and determine the n-point correlation functions in the sense of Bloch-Okounkov on integrable modules over classical Lie subalgebras of gl_\infty of type B,C,D at arbitrary levels. As byproducts, we obtain new q-dimension formulas for integrable modules of type B,C,D and some fermionic type q-identities.

description: Nonlocally coupled oscillator systems can exhibit an exotic spatiotemporal structure called chimera, where the system splits into two groups of oscillators with sharp boundaries, one of which is phase-locked and the other is phase-randomized. Two examples of the chimera states are known: the first one appears in a ring of phase oscillators, and the second one is associated with the two-dimensional rotating spiral waves. In this article, we report yet another example of the chimera state that is associated with the so-called Ising walls in one-dimensional spatially extended systems, which is exhibited by a nonlocally coupled complex Ginzburg-Landau equation with external forcing.

description: By using a two-step method, we successfully synthesized the iron based new superconductor LaO$_{0.9}$F$_{0.1-x}$FeAs. The Hall effect and magnetoresistance were measured in wide temperature region. A negative Hall coefficient R_H has been found implying a dominant conduction by electron-like charge carriers in this material. The charge carrier density determined at 100K is about 9.8E20 cm-3, which is close to the cuprate superconductors. It is further found that the magnetoresistance does not follow the Kohler's law. Meanwhile, the Hall coefficient, the resistivity at 0T, and magnetoresistance all have an anomalous property at about 240K, which may be induced by the multi-band effect or by some exotic scattering mechanism.

description: Performing highly precise Monte-Carlo simulations of SU(2) gluodynamics, we observe for the first time Abelian dominance in the confining part of the static potential in local unitary gauges such as the F12 gauge. We also study the flux-tube profile between the quark and antiquark in these local unitary gauges and find a clear signal of the dual Meissner effect. The Abelian electric field is found to be squeezed into a flux tube by the monopole supercurrent. This feature is the same as that observed in the non-local maximally Abelian gauge. These results suggest that the Abelian confinement scenario is gauge independent. Observing the important role of space-like monopoles in the Polyakov gauge also indicates that the monopoles defined on the lattice do not necessarily correspond to those proposed by 't Hooft in the context of Abelian projection.

description: We present a comprehensive study of the dust and gas properties in the after-head-on-collision UGC12914/15 galaxy system using multi-transition CO data and SCUBA sub-mm continuum images at both 450 and 850$μ$m. CO(3-2) line emission was detected in the disks of UGC 12914 and UGC 12915 as well as in a bridge connecting the two galaxies. Dust emission at 450$μ$m was detected for the first time in the two galactic disks and in the connecting bridge. Using an LVG excitation analysis model we have obtained good estimates of the physical parameters in different regions of this system and the amount of molecular gas was found to be 3-4 times lower than that estimated by other investigators using the standard Galactic CO-to-H2 conversion factor. Comparing with the dust mass derived from the SCUBA data, we found that the gas-to-dust ratio was comparable to the Galactic value in the two galaxy disks but a factor of ~3 higher in the bridge. The physical condition of the molecular gas in the bridge is comparable to that in the diffuse clouds in our Galaxy. Our result is consistent with the scenario that the bridge molecular gas originated from the disk molecular clouds and has been drawn out of the galactic disks due to direct cloud-cloud collision. Our data indicate that the global star formation efficiency (SFE) in UGC 12915 is comparable to that of normal spiral galaxies, and the SFE is 40% lower in UGC 12914 than in UGC 12915. Little star formation activity was found in the bridge except in an HII region adjacent to the disk of UGC 12915.

description: The determination of the ordering of the neutrino masses (the hierarchy) is probably a crucial prerequisite to understand the origin of lepton masses and mixings and to establish their relationship to the analogous properties in the quark sector. Here, we follow an alternative strategy to the usual neutrino--antineutrino comparison in long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments: we exploit the combination of the neutrino-only data from the NOvA and the T2K experiments by performing these two off-axis experiments at different distances but at the same $/L$, where $$ is the mean neutrino energy and $L$ is the baseline. This would require a minor adjustment to the proposed off-axis angle for one or both of the proposed experiments.

description: We analyze the joint effect of contaminants and nutrient loading on population dynamics of marine food chains by means of bifurcation analysis. Contaminant toxicity is assumed to alter mortality of some species with a sigmoidal dose-response relationship. A generic effect of pollutants is to delay transitions to complex dynamical states towards higher nutrient load values, but more counterintuitive consequences arising from indirect effects are described. In particular, the top predator seems to be the species more affected by pollutants, even when contaminant is toxic only to lower trophic levels.

description: Recently, a spatiotemporal optical vortex (STOV) with a transverse orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been generated from coherent ultrafast pulses using mode-locked lasers. In contrast, we demonstrate theoretically and experimentally that a STOV can be generated from a light source with partial temporal coherence with fluctuating temporal phase. By eliminating the need of mode-locked laser sources, the partially coherent STOV will serve as a convenient and cost-effective transverse OAM source.

description: We perform lattice Monte-Carlo simulations of pure SU(2) QCD using the multi-level method. We find Abelian dominance in local unitary gauges such as those diagonalizing a plaquette. A static potential described by Abelian link fields alone gives us the same string tension as that of a non-Abelian potential. Abelian dominance of the string tension and Abelian flux tube profiles are observed also without gauge-fixing, i.e., without any Abelian projection. On the basis of these results, we propose a simple gauge-independent Abelian confinement scenario without any Abelian projection. All color components of the non-Abelian field strength become Abelian dominant in the infrared region. The Abelian dual Meissner effect works in any color direction. Abelian neutral states in any color directions which are just non-Abelian color-singlet can exist as a physical state. In this way, the non-Abelian color confinement could be understood in the framework of the Abelian dual Meissner effect.

description: We establish the Hodge conjecture for some subvarieties of a class of toric varieties. First we study quasi-smooth intersections in a projective simplicial toric variety, which is a suitable notion to generalize smooth complete intersection subvarieties in the toric environment, and in particular quasi-smooth hypersurfaces. We show that under appropriate conditions, the Hodge Conjecture holds for a very general quasi-smooth intersection subvariety, generalizing the work on quasi-smooth hypersurfaces of the first author and Grassi in [3]. We also show that the Hodge Conjecture holds asymptotically for suitable quasi-smooth hypersurface in the Noether-Lefschetz locus, where "asymptotically" means that the degree of the hypersurface is big enough. This extendes to toric varieties Otwinowska's result in [15].

description: To investigate the relationship between Zn concentrations in serum and those in milk or faeces, and to assess the ability of the Zn concentrations in milk, serum and faeces to predict intake of ZnO in dairy cattle. Seventy cows from one commercial farm in the Waikato region of New Zealand received one of seven dose rates (0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 g/100 kg bodyweight (BW)) of ZnO given by oral drench, every morning, for 7 consecutive days. Every afternoon, milk and blood samples were collected from all cows. Free-catch faecal samples were collected during the afternoon milking on 3 days throughout the trial. Linear mixed models were used to assess the relationship between the concentration of Zn in serum and that in milk, and in faeces, respectively, and the relationship between dose rate of ZnO and concentrations of Zn in serum, faeces and milk, respectively. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to determine the ability of the Zn concentration in serum, milk and faeces to predict that a cow had been treated with a dose of ZnO ≥2.5 g/100 kg, the industry-recommended dose rate needed to protect against facial eczema. A 1-µmol/L increase in Zn concentration in milk was associated with a 0.14 (95% CI = 0.11–0.17) µmol/L increase in Zn concentration in serum. Zn concentration in faeces was scaled by its SD; a 1 SD increase was associated with a 1.83 (95% CI = 0.54–3.12) µmol/L increase in zinc concentration in serum. Zn concentrations in serum and faeces increased with increasing dose rates of ZnO. No differences in Zn concentrations in milk were noted between animals dosed with 1.5–3.5 g ZnO/100 kg BW, inclusive. At the optimal threshold of Zn concentration in serum to predict protective ZnO intake (22 µmol/L), the sensitivity was 0.76 (95% CI = 0.69–0.82) and specificity 0.85 (95% CI = 0.80–0.89). For the concentration of Zn in faeces, the optimal threshold was 17.36 mmol/kg, with a corresponding sensitivity of 0.84 (95% CI = 0.84–0.85) and specificity of 0.85 (95% CI = 0.73–0.94). At the optimal threshold for the Zn concentration in milk (76.6 µmol/L), the sensitivity was lower than the other two sample types at 0.59 (95% CI = 0.52–0.67), but with a similar specificity of 0.84 (95% CI = 0.79–0.88). The concentration of Zn in milk shows promise as an initial screening test to identify dairy farms that do not provide adequate zinc to provide protection against FE.

description: We address binary and quaternary communication channels based on correlated multiphoton two-mode states of radiation in the presence of losses. The protocol are based on photon number correlations and realized upon choosing a shared set of thresholds to convert the outcome of a joint photon number measurement into a symbol from a discrete alphabet. In particular, we focus on channels build using feasible photon-number entangled states (PNES) as two-mode coherently-correlated (TMC) or twin-beam (TWB) states and compare their performances with that of channels built using feasible classically correlated (separable) states. We found that PNES provide larger channel capacity in the presence of loss, and that TWB-based channels may transmit a larger amount of information than TMC-based ones at fixed energy and overall loss. Optimized bit discrimination thresholds, as well as the corresponding maximized mutual information, are explicitly evaluated as a function of the beam intensity and the loss parameter. The propagation of TMC and TWB in lossy channels is analyzed and the joint photon number distribution is evaluated, showing that the beam statistics, either sub-Poissonian for TMC or super-Poissonian for TWB, is not altered by losses. Although entanglement is not strictly needed to establish the channels, which are based on photon-number correlations owned also by separable mixed states, purity of the support state is relevant to increase security. The joint requirement of correlation and purity individuates PNES as a suitable choice to build effective channels. The effects of losses on channel security are briefly discussed.

description: ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins are membrane transporters responsible for metabolites and active substances removal from cells. Their genes’ variations have been associated with protein function and expression defects. Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) patients hosting those alterations might compromise the efficacy of high-dose statin treatment, a primary therapeutic strategy. ABCC1 is a member of the ABC-transporter superfamily, potentially relevant to pharmacological therapy responses and toxicity risks in hypercholesterolemic patients. Here, we evaluated specific non-synonymous (SNV) missense variants in the ABCC1 gene from a FH patient cohort, assessing potential impacts on protein structure, molecular dynamics and interactions with rosuvastatin, atorvastatin, pravastatin, pitavastatin, and lovastatin. Molecular docking, complemented by motion, visual and binding affinity analysis using the PLANNET model, suggested that these mutations had minimal impact on drug interactions. These findings prompted further analysis of two other efflux pumps, ABCG2 and P-gp, and their statin interactions. Interestingly, diminished binding affinities hinted at a compensatory mechanism wherein other transporters might mitigate potential ABCC1 mutation effects, ensuring effective drug efflux. Clinical profiles from the patient cohort did not show a correlation between these variants and clinical outcomes, potentially pointing to the role of alternate drug transporters in statin interaction. Diagram depicting the compensatory turnover of alternate transporters in response to statins’ preferential binding to ABCC1, and its impact on the clinical outcomes for patients with familial hypercholesterolemia. It represents how ABCG2 (pink) and P-gp (orange) are more capable of depleting statins from the intracellular ambient than ABCC1 (purple), thus impacting statin treatment.

description: We determine the variance-optimal hedge when the logarithm of the underlying price follows a process with stationary independent increments in discrete or continuous time. Although the general solution to this problem is known as backward recursion or backward stochastic differential equation, we show that for this class of processes the optimal endowment and strategy can be expressed more explicitly. The corresponding formulas involve the moment, respectively, cumulant generating function of the underlying process and a Laplace- or Fourier-type representation of the contingent claim. An example illustrates that our formulas are fast and easy to evaluate numerically.

description: Solving the Kohn-Sham eigenvalue problem constitutes the most computationally expensive part in self-consistent density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In a previous paper, we have proposed a nonlinear Chebyshev-filtered subspace iteration method, which avoids computing explicit eigenvectors except at the first SCF iteration. The method may be viewed as an approach to solve the original nonlinear Kohn-Sham equation by a nonlinear subspace iteration technique, without emphasizing the intermediate linearized Kohn-Sham eigenvalue problem. It reaches self-consistency within a similar number of SCF iterations as eigensolver-based approaches. However, replacing the standard diagonalization at each SCF iteration by a Chebyshev subspace filtering step results in a significant speedup over methods based on standard diagonalization. Here, we discuss an approach for implementing this method in multi-processor, parallel environment. Numerical results are presented to show that the method enables to perform a class of highly challenging DFT calculations that were not feasible before.

description: Scutellaria barbata D. Don 1825 is an important medicinal plant distributed in wetlands about 2000 m above sea level and used to treat various diseases. The complete chloroplast genome of S. barbata is 152,050 bp with four subregions consisting of a large single-copy region (84,053 bp), a small single-copy region (17,517 bp), and a pair of inverted repeats (25,240 bp). In the chloroplast genome of S. barbata, 131 genes were detected, comprising 87 protein-encoding genes, eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 36 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on the complete chloroplast genome and protein-coding DNA sequences of 27 related taxa of the genus (out group included Holmskioldia sanguinea and Tinnea aethiopica) indicates that S. barbata was made a clade with S. orthocalyx, and S. meehanioides was a sister to them. The first chloroplast genome of S. barbata was reported in this work, serving as a potential reference for important medicinal plants within the Scutellaria genus.

description: The Vela supernova remnant (SNR) shows several ejecta fragments protruding beyond the forward shock (shrapnel). Recent studies have revealed high Si abundance in two shrapnel (A and G), located in opposite directions with respect to the SNR center. This suggests the possible existence of a Si-rich jet-counterjet structure. We analyzed an XMM-Newton observation of a bright clump, behind shrapnel G, which lies along the direction connecting A and G. The aim is to study the physical and chemical properties of this clump to ascertain whether it is part of this putative jet-like structure. We produced background-corrected and adaptively-smoothed count-rate images and median photon energy maps, and performed a spatially resolved spectral analysis. We identified two structures with different physical properties. The first one is remarkably elongated along the direction connecting A and G. Its X-ray spectrum is much softer than that of the other two shrapnel, to the point of hindering the determination of the Si abundance, however its physical and chemical properties are consistent with those of shrapnel A and G. The second structure, running along the southeast-northwest direction, has a higher temperature and appears like a thin filament. By analyzing the ROSAT data, we have found that this filament is part of a very large and coherent structure that we identified in the western rim of the shell. We obtained a thorough description of the tail of Shrapnel G. In addition we discovered a coherent and very extended feature that we interpret as a signature of an earlier interaction of the remnant with the stellar wind of its progenitor star. The peculiar Ne/O ratio we found in the wind residual may be suggestive of a Wolf-Rayet progenitor for Vela SNR, though further analysis is required to address this point.

description: We have used single crystal X-ray diffraction methods to establish the crystal structures of a compound in the Pd-Mn-Si system and in the Pd-Mn-Ge system. The title compounds have structures related to the Fe$_2$P structure type and are ferromagnetic with Curie temperatures above the room temperature. Density functional electronic structure calculations help to understand the nature of the local moment ferromagnetism in these compounds. However neither the electronic structure calculations nor the magnetic measurements provide any evidence of half-metallic behavior.

description: We consider a polling model with multiple stations, each with Poisson arrivals and a queue of infinite capacity. The service regime is exhaustive and there is Jacksonian feedback of served customers. What is new here is that when the server comes to a station it chooses the service rate and the feedback parameters at random; these remain valid during the whole stay of the server at that station. We give criteria for recurrence, transience and existence of the $s$th moment of the return time to the empty state for this model. This paper generalizes the model, when only two stations accept arriving jobs, which was considered in [Ann. Appl. Probab. 17 (2007) 1447--1473]. Our results are stated in terms of Lyapunov exponents for random matrices. From the recurrence criteria it can be seen that the polling model with parameter regeneration can exhibit the unusual phenomenon of null recurrence over a thick region of parameter space.
