description: The performance of nuclear reactors and other nuclear systems depends on a precise understanding of the neutron interaction cross sections for materials used in these systems. These cross sections exhibit resonant structure whose shape is determined in part by the angular momentum quantum numbers of the resonances. The correct assignment of the quantum numbers of neutron resonances is, therefore, paramount. In this project, we apply machine learning to automate the quantum number assignments using only the resonances' energies and widths and not relying on detailed transmission or capture measurements. The classifier used for quantum number assignment is trained using stochastically generated resonance sequences whose distributions mimic those of real data. We explore the use of several physics-motivated features for training our classifier. These features amount to out-of-distribution tests of a given resonance's widths and resonance-pair spacings. We pay special attention to situations where either capture widths cannot be trusted for classification purposes or where there is insufficient information to classify resonances by the total spin $J$. We demonstrate the efficacy of our classification approach using simulated and actual $^{52}$Cr resonance data.

description: High-entropy alloys are made from random mixtures of principal elements on simple lattices, stabilized by a high mixing entropy. The recently discovered BCC Ta-Nb-Hf-Zr-Ti high entropy alloy superconductor appears to display properties of both simple crystalline intermetallics and amorphous materials, e.g. it has a well defined superconducting transition along with an exceptional robustness against disorder. Here we show that the valence-electron count dependence of the superconducting transition temperature in the high entropy alloy falls between those of analogous simple solid solutions and amorphous materials, and test the effect of alloy complexity on the superconductivity. We propose high-entropy alloys as excellent intermediate systems for studying superconductivity as it evolves between crystalline and amorphous materials.

description: Interferometric scattering (iSCAT) microscopy has undergone significant development in recent years. It is a promising technique for imaging and tracking nanoscopic label-free objects with nanometer localization precision. The current iSCAT-based photometry technique allows quantitative estimation for the size of a nanoparticle by measuring iSCAT contrast and has been successfully applied to nano-objects smaller than the Rayleigh scattering limit. Here we provide an alternative method that overcomes such size limitations. We take into account the axial variation of iSCAT contrast and utilize a vectorial point spread function model to uncover the position of a scattering dipole and, consequently, the size of the scatterer, which is not limited to the Rayleigh limit. We found that our technique accurately measures the size of spherical dielectric nanoparticles in a purely optical and non-contact way. We also tested fluorescent nanodiamonds (fND) and obtained a reasonable estimate for the size of fND particles. Together with fluorescence measurement from fND, we observed a correlation between the fluorescent signal and the size of fND. Our results showed that the axial pattern of iSCAT contrast provides sufficient information for the size of spherical particles. Our method enables us to measure the size of nanoparticles from tens of nanometers and beyond the Rayleigh limit with nanometer precision, making a versatile all-optical nanometric technique.

description: Let $α$ be an irrational number, let $X_1, X_2, \ldots$ be independent, identically distributed, integer-valued random variables, and put $S_k=\sum_{j=1}^k X_j$. Assuming that $X_1$ has finite variance or heavy tails $P (|X_1|>t)\sim ct^{-β}$, $0<β<2$, in Part I of this paper we proved that, up to logarithmic factors, the order of magnitude of the discrepancy $D_N (S_k α)$ of the first $N$ terms of the sequence $\{S_k α\}$ is $O(N^{-τ})$, where $τ= \min (1/(βγ), 1/2)$ (with $β=2$ in the case of finite variances) and $γ$ is the strong Diophantine type of $α$. This shows a change of behavior of the discrepancy at $βγ=2$. In this paper we determine the exact order of magnitude of $D_N (S_k α)$ for $βγ<1$, and determine the limit distribution of $N^{-1/2} D_N (S_k α)$. We also prove a functional version of these results describing the asymptotic behavior of a wide class of functionals of the sequence $\{S_k α\}$. Finally, we extend our results to the discrepancy of $\{S_k\}$ for general random walks $S_k$ without arithmetic conditions on $X_1$, assuming only a mild polynomial rate on the weak convergence of $\{S_k\}$ to the uniform distribution.

description: A study on the intermediate polar EX Hya is presented, based on simultaneous photometry and high dispersion spectroscopic observations, during four consecutive nights. The strong photometric modulation related to with the 67-min spin period of the primary star is clearly present, as well as the narrow eclipses associated to the orbital modulation. Since our eclipse timings have been obtained almost 91,000 cycles since the last reported observations, we present new linear ephemeris, although we cannot rule out a sinusoidal variation suggested by previous authors. The system mainly shows double-peaked H$α$, H$β$ and HeI $λ$5876 Åemission lines. From the profile of the H$α$ line, we find two components; one with a steep rise and velocities not larger than $\sim$1000 km s$^{-1}$ and another broader component extending up to $\sim$2000 km s$^{-1}$, which we interpret as coming mainly from the inner disc. A strong and variable hotspot is found and a stream-like structure is seen at times. We show that the best solution correspond to $K_1 = 58 \pm 5$ km s$^{-1}$ from H$α$, from the two emission components, which are both in phase with the orbital modulation. We remark on a peculiar effect in the radial velocity curve around phase zero, which could be interpreted as a Rositter-MacLaughlin-like effect, which has been taken into account before deriving $K_1$. This value is compatible with the values found in high-resolution both in the ultraviolet and X-ray. We find: $M_{1} = 0.78 \pm 0.03$ M$_{\odot}$, $ M_{2} = 0.10 \pm 0.02$ M$_{\odot}$ and $a = 0.67 \pm 0.01$ R$_{\odot}$. Doppler Tomography has been applied, to construct six Doppler tomograms for single orbital cycles spanning the four days of observations to support our conclusions. Our results indicate that EX Hya has a well formed disc and that the magnetosphere should extend only to about $3.75\,R_{\rm{WD}}$.

description: We examine Lie (super)algebroids equipped with a homological section, i.e., an odd section that `self-commutes', we refer to such Lie algebroids as inner Q-algebroids: these provide natural examples of suitably "superised" Q-algebroids in the sense of Mehta. Such Lie algebroids are a natural generalisation of Q-manifolds and Lie superalgebras equipped with a homological element. Amongst other results, we show that, via the derived bracket formalism, the space of sections of an inner Q-algebroid comes equipped with an odd Loday-Leibniz bracket.

description: Pitted impact deposits (PIDs) on Vesta have been shown to exhibit distinct spectral characteristics with respect to their surrounding host deposits and other typical Vestan areas regarding the first major pyroxene absorption near 0.9 μm. The PIDs, especially those in the ejecta blanket of the large crater Marcia, show higher reflectance and pyroxene band strength with respect to their impact deposit surroundings. This study complements the spectral characterization of the PIDs on Vesta with Visible and Infrared Spectrometer observations obtained by NASA’s Dawn mission. In particular, we focus on the second major pyroxene absorption near 1.9 μm. We analyze nine PIDs in the ejecta blanket of the crater Marcia, as well as PIDs within the crater-fill deposits of the craters Marcia, Cornelia, and Licinia. We find that the second pyroxene absorption behaves in similar ways as the first major pyroxene absorption. The PIDs in Marcia’s ejecta blanket show higher reflectance and pyroxene band strength with respect to their immediate impact deposit surroundings. The PIDs present in the crater-fill deposits of Marcia, Cornelia, and Licinia, however, do not show such spectral characteristics. This is also consistent with previous observations of the first pyroxene absorption band. Based on the experimental results of other studies, we speculate that the observed spectral distinctness arises from an oxidation process in the interior of impact deposits, where Fe cations migrate within their host pyroxene grains. Thus, the surfaces of (melt-bearing) impact deposits might be different from their interiors, apart from space-weathering effects.

description: We extend techniques and learnings about the stochastic properties of nonlinear responses from finance to medicine, particularly oncology where it can inform dosing and intervention. We define antifragility. We propose uses of risk analysis to medical problems, through the properties of nonlinear responses (convex or concave). We 1) link the convexity/concavity of the dose-response function to the statistical properties of the results; 2) define "antifragility" as a mathematical property for local beneficial convex responses and the generalization of "fragility" as its opposite, locally concave in the tails of the statistical distribution; 3) propose mathematically tractable relations between dosage, severity of conditions, and iatrogenics. In short we propose a framework to integrate the necessary consequences of nonlinearities in evidence-based oncology and more general clinical risk management.

description: Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) was imaged with the 2m telescope at Mt. Wendelstein Observatory in the Alps. Coma and tail monitoring was performed during 51 nights between 22 August 2015 and 9 May 2016. The images through r and i Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) filters show the dust distribution around the comet, while images in the SDSS g filter indicate also the presence of coma gas in early September 2015. The dust color of 67P implies intrinsic reddening of 9 %/100nm. After maximum shortly after perihelion passage the dust activity decreased with a heliocentric exponent of 4.1 to 4.2 from late September 2015 until May 2016. The opposition surge during early 2016 can be explained by a linear light scattering phase function (beta ~ 0.04) or an asteroid-like HG-type phase function (G ~ 0.15). The radial brightness profile indicates a 'quasi-steady-state' dust coma from late September to the end of 2015. Dust fragmentation during about a month after perihelion may be responsible for radial coma profiles with slopes below unity, while dust accumulation due to very slow dust expansion velocity may result in steeper than unity profiles during 2016. Three fan-shape dust structures are characterized in the coma of 67P. A short dust ejection event on 22 -23 August 2015 has produced a dust arc-let and jet feature in the coma. In September 2015 the appearance of cometary dust tail is dominated by young dust produced around perihelion. The older dust dominates the tail appearance as of mid November 2015.

description: In this article, we propose that differences in COVID-19 morbidity may be associated with transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and/or transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) activation as well as desensitization. TRPA1 and TRPV1 induce inflammation and play a key role in the physiology of almost all organs. They may augment sensory or vagal nerve discharges to evoke pain and several symptoms of COVID-19, including cough, nasal obstruction, vomiting, diarrhea, and, at least partly, sudden and severe loss of smell and taste. TRPA1 can be activated by reactive oxygen species and may therefore be up-regulated in COVID-19. TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels can be activated by pungent compounds including many nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2) (Nrf2)-interacting foods leading to channel desensitization. Interactions between Nrf2-associated nutrients and TRPA1/TRPV1 may be partly responsible for the severity of some of the COVID-19 symptoms. The regulation by Nrf2 of TRPA1/TRPV1 is still unclear, but suggested from very limited clinical evidence. In COVID-19, it is proposed that rapid desensitization of TRAP1/TRPV1 by some ingredients in foods could reduce symptom severity and provide new therapeutic strategies.

description: Traditional multi-robot motion planning (MMP) focuses on computing trajectories for multiple robots acting in an environment, such that the robots do not collide when the trajectories are taken simultaneously. In safety-critical applications, a human supervisor may want to verify that the plan is indeed collision-free. In this work, we propose a notion of explanation for a plan of MMP, based on visualization of the plan as a short sequence of images representing time segments, where in each time segment the trajectories of the agents are disjoint, clearly illustrating the safety of the plan. We show that standard notions of optimality (e.g., makespan) may create conflict with short explanations. Thus, we propose meta-algorithms, namely multi-agent plan segmenting-X (MAPS-X) and its lazy variant, that can be plugged on existing centralized sampling-based tree planners X to produce plans with good explanations using a desirable number of images. We demonstrate the efficacy of this explanation-planning scheme and extensively evaluate the performance of MAPS-X.

description: Recent measurements of the electroweak-boson production performed by the ALICE Collaboration are reported. The W-boson production was measured at midrapidity in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV, via the electronic decay of the boson. It was also measured in association with a hadron emitted back-to-back with respect to the electron. In heavy-ion collisions, the W- and Z-boson production was measured at forward rapidity in p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 8.16$ TeV and Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 5.02$ TeV, in their muonic decay channel. Measurements in pp collisions shed light on multiple parton interactions and colour reconnection mechanisms. In heavy-ion collisions the measurements of electroweak bosons allow to probe the initial state of the collision.

description: We present a new computational approach, Action-CSA, to sample multiple reaction pathways with fixed initial and final states through global optimization of the Onsager-Machlup action using the conformational space annealing method. This approach successfully samples not only the most dominant pathway but also many other possible paths without initial guesses on reaction pathways. Pathway space is efficiently sampled by crossover operations of a set of paths and preserving the diversity of sampled pathways. The sampling ability of the approach is assessed by finding pathways for the conformational changes of alanine dipeptide and hexane. The benchmarks demonstrate that the rank order and the transition time distribution of multiple pathways identified by the new approach are in good agreement with those of long molecular dynamics simulations. We also show that the lowest action folding pathway of the mini-protein FSD-1 identified by the new approach is consistent with previous molecular dynamics simulations and experiments.

description: A proof of work (PoW) is an important cryptographic construct enabling a party to convince others that they invested some effort in solving a computational task. Arguably, its main impact has been in the setting of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and its underlying blockchain protocol, which received significant attention in recent years due to its potential for various applications as well as for solving fundamental distributed computing questions in novel threat models. PoWs enable the linking of blocks in the blockchain data structure and thus the problem of interest is the feasibility of obtaining a sequence (chain) of such proofs. In this work, we examine the hardness of finding such chain of PoWs against quantum strategies. We prove that the chain of PoWs problem reduces to a problem we call multi-solution Bernoulli search, for which we establish its quantum query complexity. Effectively, this is an extension of a threshold direct product theorem to an average-case unstructured search problem. Our proof, adding to active recent efforts, simplifies and generalizes the recording technique of Zhandry (Crypto'19). As an application, we revisit the formal treatment of security of the core of the Bitcoin consensus protocol, the Bitcoin backbone (Eurocrypt'15), against quantum adversaries, while honest parties are classical and show that protocol's security holds under a quantum analogue of the classical ``honest majority'' assumption. Our analysis indicates that the security of Bitcoin backbone is guaranteed provided the number of adversarial quantum queries is bounded so that each quantum query is worth $O(p^{-1/2})$ classical ones, where $p$ is the success probability of a single classical query to the protocol's underlying hash function. Somewhat surprisingly, the wait time for safe settlement in the case of quantum adversaries matches the safe settlement time in the classical case.

description: The Milburn dynamics of three nonresonant ultra-strongly coupled oscillators are resolved by using symplectic geometry. We look at the Milburn dynamics of virtual excitations and how they affect pairwise entanglement. It is found that the dynamics of excitations and entanglement experience similar profiles against time, physical parameters, and decoherence rate. Furthermore, we show that the extinction of excitations entails separability, which demonstrates the hierarchy between entanglement and virtual excitations. Additionally, we analyze the effects of physical parameters on the redistribution of virtual excitations among the three bi-partitions. As a result, we show the violation of the monogamy of excitations as in quantum discord. This implies that excitations can be considered as signatures of quantum correlations beyond entanglement. Besides, we emphasize that our treatment can be used to model coupled quantum circuits in real situations (with decoherence).

description: We study theoretically and numerically a new kind of spatial correlation for waves in disordered media. We define $C_Γ$ as the correlation function of the fluorescent decay rate of an emitter at two different positions inside the medium. We show that the amplitude and the width of $C_Γ$ provide decoupled information on the structural correlation of the disordered medium and on the local environment of the emitter. This result may stimulate the emergence of new imaging and sensing modalities in complex media.

description: We report chemical abundances obtained by SDSS-III/APOGEE for giant stars in five globular clusters located within 2.2 kpc of the Galactic centre. We detect the presence of multiple stellar populations in four of those clusters (NGC 6553, NGC 6528, Terzan 5, and Palomar 6) and find strong evidence for their presence in NGC 6522. All clusters present a significant spread in the abundances of N, C, Na, and Al, with the usual correlations and anti-correlations between various abundances seen in other globular clusters. Our results provide important quantitative constraints on theoretical models for self-enrichment of globular clusters, by testing their predictions for the dependence of yields of elements such as Na, N, C, and Al on metallicity. They also confirm that, under the assumption that field N-rich stars originate from globular cluster destruction, they can be used as tracers of their parental systems in the high- metallicity regime.

description: We present full (3+1)D dynamical simulations to study collective behavior in ultra-peripheral nucleus-nucleus collisions (UPC) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with the 3DGlauber+MUSIC+UrQMD framework. By extrapolating from asymmetric p+Pb collisions, we simulate a quasi-real photon $γ^*$ interacting with the Pb nucleus in an ultra-peripheral collision at the LHC, assuming strong final-state effects. We study the elliptic flow hierarchy between p+Pb and $γ^*$+Pb collisions, which is dominated by the difference in longitudinal flow decorrelations. Our theoretical framework provides a quantitative tool to study collectivity in small asymmetric collision systems at current and future collider experiments.

description: Solemos referirnos al autismo como trastorno del espectro autista (TEA), síndrome de asperger, condición autista, trastorno del neurodesarrollo, neurotipo autista o neurodivergencia. Sin embargo, más allá de dichas terminologías, los propios autistas tienen mucho que decir sobre ellos mismos; ya que en la actualidad no existe un amplio acervo bibliográfico sobre el autismo en la población adulta y menos aún, escritos donde uno pueda acceder a descripciones en primera persona de adultos autistas dialogando sobre sí mismos. Motivado por ello, les presento mi investigación sobre este fascinante tema, donde procuro que el protagonismo se centre en el crisol de voces autistas que comparten sus historias únicas.
Medium-modifications of $g\to c \bar{c}$ splitting

description: We study medium-modifications of the gluon splitting into a quark and anti-quark pair. Applying the Baier-Dokshitzer-Mueller-Peigné-Schiff and Zakharov (BDMPS-Z) formalism, we derive a path-integral formula for the in-medium $g\to q \bar{q}$ splitting function in the close-to-eikonal limit. Our analysis shows that there are two qualitatively different medium effects: transverse momentum broadening of $q \bar{q}$ pairs and enhanced production of such pairs. We note that both effects are numerically sizeable if the average momentum transfer from the medium to the parton is at the quark mass scale. In ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions, this condition is realized by charm quarks, therefore we focus our numerical analysis on the medium-modifications of $g\to c \bar{c}$ splitting.

description: Quantum and thermal fluctuations of electromagnetic waves are the cornerstone of quantum and statistical physics, and inherent to such phenomena as thermal radiation and van der Waals forces. While the basic principles are the material of elementary texts, recent experimental and technological advances have made it necessary to come to terms with counterintuitive consequences of electromagnetic fluctuations at short scales -- in the so called {\it near-field} regime. We focus on three manifestations of such behavior: {\bf (i)} The Stefan--Boltzmann law describes thermal radiation from macroscopic bodies, but fails to account for magnitude, polarization and coherence of radiation from small objects (say compared to the skin depth). {\bf (ii)} The heat transfer between two bodies at similar close proximity is dominated by evanescent waves, and can be several orders of magnitude larger than the classical contribution due to propagating waves. {\bf (iii)} Casimir/van der Waals interactions are a dominant force between objects at sub-micron separation; the non-equilibrium analogs of this force (for objects at different temperatures) have not been sufficiently explored (at least experimentally). To explore these phenomena we introduce the tool of fluctuational quantum electrodynamics (QED) originally introduced by Rytov in the 1950s. Combined with a scattering formalism, this enables studies of heat radiation and transfer, equilibrium and non-equilibrium forces for objects of different material properties, shapes, separations and arrangements.

Amorphic complexity of group actions with applications to quasicrystals

description: In this article, we define amorphic complexity for actions of locally compact $σ$-compact amenable groups on compact metric spaces. Amorphic complexity, originally introduced for $\mathbb Z$-actions, is a topological invariant which measures the complexity of dynamical systems in the regime of zero entropy. We show that it is tailor-made to study strictly ergodic group actions with discrete spectrum and continuous eigenfunctions. This class of actions includes, in particular, Delone dynamical systems related to regular model sets obtained via Meyer's cut and project method. We provide sharp upper bounds on amorphic complexity of such systems. In doing so, we observe an intimate relationship between amorphic complexity and fractal geometry.

description: Understanding the collective dynamics of crowd movements during stressful emergency situations is central to reducing the risk of deadly crowd disasters. Yet, their systematic experimental study remains a challenging open problem due to ethical and methodological constraints. In this paper, we demonstrate the viability of shared 3D virtual environments as an experimental platform for conducting crowd experiments with real people. In particular, we show that crowds of real human subjects moving and interacting in an immersive 3D virtual environment exhibit typical patterns of real crowds as observed in real-life crowded situations. These include the manifestation of social conventions and the emergence of self-organized patterns during egress scenarios. High-stress evacuation experiments conducted in this virtual environment reveal movements characterized by mass herding and dangerous overcrowding as they occur in crowd disasters. We describe the behavioral mechanisms at play under such extreme conditions and identify critical zones where overcrowding may occur. Furthermore, we show that herding spontaneously emerges from a density effect without the need to assume an increase of the individual tendency to imitate peers. Our experiments reveal the promise of immersive virtual environments as an ethical, cost-efficient, yet accurate platform for exploring crowd behaviour in high-risk situations with real human subjects.

description: Facile techniques are required for the debonding of polymeric adhesives from metals for material recycling. A promising solution is a pulsed discharge debonding method. In this approach, a pulsed discharge with a high voltage is applied to the system over a short time. Rapid expansion of gasified materials and shock-wave emissions are produced from the discharge passage, which results in debonding. A drawback of the conventional pulsed discharge method is that it must be conducted in water, otherwise, the pulsed discharge creeps along the material surface without destroying the adhesion. In this study, filler was added to the structure adhesive for the effective pulsed discharge debonding of metal adherend. Epoxy resins with fillers of carbon black, copper and barium titanate particles were fabricated, and their properties and adhesive strength before and after application of the pulsed discharge were investigated. We succeeded in introducing the pulsed discharge inside the adhesive by adding 3.4 vol% of carbon black to the epoxy adhesive; the rapid expansion of gasified adhesion that was caused by the discharge, resulted in debonding. The threshold volume fraction of carbon black for effective pulsed discharge inside the adhesive was discussed based on the percolation model with experimental data.

Summary: Exclusion regions are sections of reference genomes with abnormal pileups of short sequencing reads. Removing reads overlapping them improves biological signal, and these benefits are most pronounced in differential analysis settings. Several labs created exclusion region sets, available primarily through ENCODE and Github. However, the variety of exclusion sets creates uncertainty which sets to use. Furthermore, gap regions (e.g., centromeres, telomeres, short arms) create additional considerations in generating exclusion sets. We generated exclusion sets for the latest human T2T-CHM13 and mouse GRCm39 genomes and systematically assembled and annotated these and other sets in the excluderanges R/Bioconductor data package, also accessible via the BEDbase.org API. The package provides unified access to 82 GenomicRanges objects covering six organisms, multiple genome assemblies and types of exclusion regions. For human hg38 genome assembly, we recommend hg38.Kundaje.GRCh38_unified_blacklist as the most well-curated and annotated, and sets generated by the Blacklist tool for other organisms.
