description: We report the finding of unidirectional electronic properties, analogous to a semiconductor diode, in two-dimensional artificial permalloy honeycomb lattice of ultra-small bond, with a typical length of ~ 12 nm. The unidirectional transport behavior, characterized by the asymmetric colossal enhancement in differential conductivity at a modest current application of ~ 10-15 $μ$A, persists to T = 300 K in honeycomb lattice of thickness ~ 6 nm. The asymmetric behavior arises without the application of magnetic field. A qualitative analysis of experimental data suggests the role of magnetic charge or monopoles in the unusual observations with strong implication for spintronics.

description: Double parton scattering in proton-proton collisions includes kinematic regions in which two partons inside a proton originate from the perturbative splitting of a single parton. This leads to a double counting problem between single and double hard scattering. We present a solution to this problem, which allows for the definition of double parton distributions as operator matrix elements in a proton, and which can be used at higher orders in perturbation theory. We show how the evaluation of double hard scattering in this framework can provide a rough estimate for the size of the higher-order contributions to single hard scattering that are affected by double counting. In a numeric study, we identify situations in which these higher-order contributions must be explicitly calculated and included if one wants to attain an accuracy at which double hard scattering becomes relevant, and other situations where such contributions may be neglected.

description: In this paper, we focus on fully automatic traffic surveillance camera calibration, which we use for speed measurement of passing vehicles. We improve over a recent state-of-the-art camera calibration method for traffic surveillance based on two detected vanishing points. More importantly, we propose a novel automatic scene scale inference method. The method is based on matching bounding boxes of rendered 3D models of vehicles with detected bounding boxes in the image. The proposed method can be used from arbitrary viewpoints, since it has no constraints on camera placement. We evaluate our method on the recent comprehensive dataset for speed measurement BrnoCompSpeed. Experiments show that our automatic camera calibration method by detection of two vanishing points reduces error by 50% (mean distance ratio error reduced from 0.18 to 0.09) compared to the previous state-of-the-art method. We also show that our scene scale inference method is more precise, outperforming both state-of-the-art automatic calibration method for speed measurement (error reduction by 86% -- 7.98km/h to 1.10km/h) and manual calibration (error reduction by 19% -- 1.35km/h to 1.10km/h). We also present qualitative results of the proposed automatic camera calibration method on video sequences obtained from real surveillance cameras in various places, and under different lighting conditions (night, dawn, day).

description: The volume and types of traffic data in mobile cellular networks have been increasing continuously. Meanwhile, traffic data change dynamically in several dimensions such as time and space. Thus, traffic modeling is essential for theoretical analysis and energy efficient design of future ultra-dense cellular networks. In this paper, the authors try to build a tractable and accurate model to describe the traffic variation pattern for a single base station in real cellular networks. Firstly a sinusoid superposition model is proposed for describing the temporal traffic variation of multiple base stations based on real data in a current cellular network. It shows that the mean traffic volume of many base stations in an area changes periodically and has three main frequency components. Then, lognormal distribution is verified for spatial modeling of real traffic data. The spatial traffic distributions at both spare time and busy time are analyzed. Moreover, the parameters of the model are presented in three typical regions: park, campus and central business district. Finally, an approach for combined spatial-temporal traffic modeling of single base station is proposed based on the temporal and spatial traffic distribution of multiple base stations. All the three models are evaluated through comparison with real data in current cellular networks. The results show that these models can accurately describe the variation pattern of real traffic data in cellular networks.

description: The Linked data Modeling Language (https://linkml.io) is a data modeling framework that provides a flexible yet expressive standard for describing many kinds of data models from value sets and flat, checklist-style standards to complex normalized data structures that use polymorphism and inheritance. It is designed so that software engineers and subject matter experts can communicate effectively in the same language while also providing the semantic underpinnings to make data conforming to LinkML schemas easier to understand and reuse computationally. The LinkML framework includes tools to serialize data models in many formats including but not limited to: JSONSchema, OWL, SQL-DDL, and Python Pydantic classes. It also includes tools to help convert instance data between different model serializations (LinkML runtime), convert schemas from one framework to another (LinkML convert), validate data against a LinkML schema (LinkML validate), retrieve model metadata (LinkML schemaview), bootstrap a LinkML schema from another framework (LinkML schema automator), and tools that auto-generate documentation and schema diagrams. LinkML is an open, extensible modeling framework that allows computers and people to work cooperatively to model, validate, and distribute data that is reusable and interoperable. https://github.com/linkml/linkml/blob/main/LICENSE

description: We introduce antiferroelectric topological insulators as a new class of functional materials in which an electric field can be used to control topological order and induce topological phase transitions. Using first principles methods, we predict that several alkali-MgBi orthorhombic members of an $ABC$ family of compounds are antiferroelectric topological insulators. We also show that epitaxial strain and hydrostatic pressure can be used to tune the topological order and the band gap of these $ABC$ compounds. Antiferroelectric topological insulators could enable precise control of topology using electric fields, enhancing the applicability of topological materials in electronics and spintronics.

description: A rectangular grid formed by liquid filaments on a partially wetting substrate evolves in a series of breakups leading to arrays of drops with different shapes distributed in a rather regular bidimensional pattern. Our study is focused on the configuration produced when two long parallel filaments of silicone oil, which are placed upon a glass substrate previously coated with a fluorinated solution, are crossed perpendicularly by another pair of long parallel filaments. A remarkable feature of this kind of grids is that there are two qualitatively different types of drops. While one set is formed at the crossing points, the rest are consequence of the breakup of shorter filaments formed between the crossings. Here, we analyze the main geometric features of all types of drops, such as shape of the footprint and contact angle distribution along the drop periphery. The formation of a series of short filaments with similar geometric and physical properties allows us to have simultaneously quasi identical experiments to study the subsequent breakups. We develop a simple hydrodynamic model to predict the number of drops that results from a filament of given initial length and width. This model is able to yield the length intervals corresponding to a small number of drops and its predictions are successfully compared with the experimental data as well as with numerical simulations of the full Navier--Stokes equation that provide a detailed time evolution of the dewetting motion of the filament till the breakup into drops. Finally, the prediction for finite filaments is contrasted with the existing theories for infinite ones.

description: We reformulate the heptagon cluster bootstrap to take advantage of the Steinmann relations, which require certain double discontinuities of any amplitude to vanish. These constraints vastly reduce the number of functions needed to bootstrap seven-point amplitudes in planar $\mathcal{N} = 4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, making higher-loop contributions to these amplitudes more computationally accessible. In particular, dual superconformal symmetry and well-defined collinear limits suffice to determine uniquely the symbols of the three-loop NMHV and four-loop MHV seven-point amplitudes. We also show that at three loops, relaxing the dual superconformal ($\bar{Q}$) relations and imposing dihedral symmetry (and for NMHV the absence of spurious poles) leaves only a single ambiguity in the heptagon amplitudes. These results point to a strong tension between the collinear properties of the amplitudes and the Steinmann relations.

description: The competition between the length scales associated with the periodicity of a lattice potential and the cyclotron radius of a uniform magnetic field is known to have dramatic effects on the single-particle properties of a quantum particle, e.g., the fractal spectrum is known as the Hofstadter butterfly. Having this intricate competition in mind, we consider a two-component Fermi gas on a square optical lattice with opposite synthetic magnetic fields for the components, and study its effects on the many-body BCS-pairing phenomenon. By a careful addressing of the distinct superfluid transitions from the semi-metal, quantum spin-Hall insulator or normal phases, we explore the low-temperature phase diagrams of the model, displaying lobe structures that are reminiscent of the well-known Mott-insulator transitions of the Bose-Hubbard model.

description: The Taubes equation for Abelian Higgs vortices is generalised to five distinct U(1) vortex equations. These include the Popov and Jackiw--Pi vortex equations, and two new equations. The Baptista metric, a conformal rescaling of the background metric by the squared Higgs field, gives insight into these vortices, and shows that vortices can be interpreted as conical singularities superposed on the background geometry. When the background has a constant curvature adapted to the vortex type, then the vortex equation is integrable by a reduction to Liouville's equation, and the Baptista metric has a constant curvature too, apart from its conical singularities. The conical geometry is fairly easy to visualise in some cases.

description: While being of persistent interest for the integration of lattice-matched laser devices with silicon circuits, the electronic structure of dilute nitride III/V-semiconductors has presented a challenge to ab initio computational approaches. The root of this lies in the strong distortion N atoms exert on most host materials. Here, we resolve these issues by combining density functional theory calculations based on the meta-GGA functional presented by Tran and Blaha (TB09) with a supercell approach for the dilute nitride Ga(NAs). Exploring the requirements posed to supercells, we show that the distortion field of a single N atom must be allowed to decrease so far, that it does not overlap with its periodic images. This also prevents spurious electronic interactions between translational symmetric atoms, allowing to compute band gaps in very good agreement with experimentally derived reference values. These results open up the field of dilute nitride compound semiconductors to predictive ab initio calculations.

Mit verschiedenen Massnahmen wird auf kantonaler und kommunaler Ebene versucht, die noch offenen Stellen zu besetzen: Klassengrössen werden erhöht, Lehrpersonen motiviert oder verpflichtet, ihr Pensum zu erhöhen, und Personen ohne adäquate Ausbildung angestellt. Diese Massnahmen helfen zwar kurzfristig, die offenen Stellen zu besetzen, können aber zu einer höheren Belastung des Lehrpersonals führen und Konsequenzen für Qualität und Effizienz der Schulen und die Attraktivität des Lehrberufs haben. Um nachhaltige, langfristige Massnahmen zu gestalten, ist es notwendig, die relevanten Gründe des Mangels an Lehrpersonen zu identifizieren. Die Forschung bietet dafür eine zentrale Grundlage. Das Diskussionspapier stellt die vorhandenen Erkenntnisse aus der Forschung entlang zentraler Fragestellungen zusammen und schlägt darauf aufbauend mögliche Massnahmen vor.

description: O objetivo desse trabalho é classificar e mapear a vulnerabilidade de aquíferos. Para alcança-lo, cumpriu-se três etapas: (i) Construção de sistemas de inferência fuzzy (SIF). Essa etapa foi caracterizada por três fases: (a) fuzzificação; adotam-se três parâmetros hidrogeológicos (input) e obtem-se um índice de vulnerabilidade (output); (b) inferência, utilizando-se os métodos Mamdani e Larsen; (c) desfuzzificação, gera-se um produto final, obtido por um método inverso à operação fuzzy. (ii) Simulação por método de Monte Carlo. Nessa etapa gerou-se dez mil números aleatórios dos parâmetros input. Esse procedimento foi adotado para testar qual a probabilidade de cada SIF em classificar a vulnerabilidade do aquífero nos graus, insignificante, baixa, média, alta e de extrema vulnerabilidade; quantificar a sensibilidade de cada parâmetro na composição final do índice. (iii) Interpolação dos valores obtidos pelos SIF para mapear a vulnerabilidade. Nessa etapa, quantifica-se o desempenho por validação cruzada por indicadores estatísticos. Os SIF foram aplicados na região amazônica, norte do Brasil, escolha justificada com vista a protecção dos recursos hídricos; pois, nessa região localiza-se a maior reserva subterrânea de água doce do mundo, o sistema aquífero Alter-do-Chão. Assim, catalogou-se 9.840 poços, cujos dados foram relativos aos parâmetros que compõem o índice GOD. Os resultados apresentaram-se como excelente estratégia de gestão e planeamento para proteção dos recursos hídricos subterrâneos.

description: We demonstrate how the orientation of the Rb cell can significantly affect the intensity and spectral characteristics of both the frequency up- and down-converted fields generated by nonlinear processes in Rb vapour. The efficiency of parametric wave mixing in Rb vapour excited to the 5D5/2 level by two-colour resonant laser light can be significantly increased by seeding the excitation region with coherent and directional radiation at 5.23 um that is resonant with the population inverted 5D5/2-6P3/2 transition. It has been shown that the process of velocity insensitive two-photon excitation is central to understanding the observed coherent blue and mid-IR light enhancements and that the velocity insensitive and velocity selective two-photon excitations could produce two co-existing but spectrally and spatially distinguishable mid-IR fields at 5.23 um.

description: We consider a coarse-grained (CG) model with pairwise interactions, suitable to describe low-density solutions of star-branched polymers of functionality $f$. Each macromolecule is represented by a CG molecule with $(f+1)$ interaction sites, which captures the star topology. Potentials are obtained by requiring the CG model to reproduce a set of distribution functions computed in the microscopic model in the zero-density limit. Explicit results are given for $f=6,12$ and $40$. We use the CG model to compute the osmotic equation of state of the solution for concentrations $c$ such that $Φ_p = c/c^* \lesssim 1$, where $c^*$ is the overlap concentration. We also investigate in detail the phase diagram for f=40, identifying the boundaries of the solid intermediate phase. Finally, we investigate how the polymer size changes with $c$. For $Φ_p\lesssim 0.3$ polymers become harder as $f$ increases at fixed reduced concentration $c/c^*$. On the other hand, for $Φ_p\gtrsim 0.3$, polymers show the opposite behavior: At fixed $Φ_p$, the larger the value of $f$, the larger their size reduction is.

description: For standard model (SM) processes involving top quarks, such as top quark-antiquark pair production or single top quark production, the theoretical predictions depend on fundamental parameters of the SM like the top quark mass. Using the large data sample collected at the CERN LHC in the second data-taking period by the ATLAS and CMS experiments, these parameters can be extracted in experimental measurements with high precision. Furthermore, properties of the production processes such as quark polarization or asymmetries can be measured. Exploiting the large luminosity of the data set, new kinematic regimes and methods are explored, as for events in which the top quarks have a very large transverse momentum. In these proceedings, recent measurements of SM parameters and top quark properties are presented. Individual results are also interpreted in terms of effective field theory extensions of the SM.

description: A simulation study of measurements of neutral current structure functions of the nucleon at the future high-energy and high-luminosity polarized electron-ion collider (EIC) is presented. A new series of $γ-Z$ interference structure functions, $F_1^{γZ}$, $F_3^{γZ}$, $g_1^{γZ}$, $g_5^{γZ}$ become accessible via parity-violating asymmetries in polarized electron-nucleon deep inelastic scattering (DIS). Within the context of the quark-parton model, they provide a unique and, in some cases, yet-unmeasured combination of unpolarized and polarized parton distribution functions. The uncertainty projections for these structure functions using electron-proton collisions are considered for various EIC beam energy configurations. Also presented are uncertainty projections for measurements of the weak mixing angle $\sin^2 θ_W$ using electron-deuteron collisions which cover a much higher $Q^2$ than that is accessible in fixed target measurements. QED and QCD radiative corrections and effects of detector smearing are included with the calculations.

description: Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is the best candidate for spin-triplet superconductivity, an unusual and elusive superconducting state of fundamental importance. In the last three decades Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ has been very carefully studied and despite its apparent simplicity when compared with strongly correlated high-$T_{c}$ cuprates, for which the pairing symmetry is understood, there is no scenario that can explain all the major experimental observations, a conundrum that has generated tremendous interest. Here we present a density-functional based analysis of magnetic interactions in Sr$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$ and discuss the role of magnetic anisotropy in its unconventional superconductivity. Our goal is twofold. First, we access the possibility of the superconducting order parameter rotation in an external magnetic field of 200 Oe, and conclude that the spin-orbit interaction in this material is several orders of magnitude too strong to be consistent with this hypothesis. Thus, the observed invariance of the Knight shift across $T_{c}$ has no plausible explanation, and casts doubt on using the Knight shift as an ultimate litmus paper for the pairing symmetry. Second, we propose a quantitative double-exchange-like model for combining itinerant fermions with an anisotropic Heisenberg magnetic Hamiltonian. This model is complementary to the Hubbard-model-based calculations published so far, and forms an alternative framework for exploring superconducting symmetry in Sr$_{2}$RuO$_{4}.$ As an example, we use this model to analyze the degeneracy between various $p-$triplet states in the simplest mean-field approximation, and show that it splits into a single and two doublets with the ground state defined by the competition between the "Ising" and "compass" anisotropic terms.
Analysis 3: Do overcrowded housing conditions undermine the benefits of social support on maternal mental health in the MCE Wave 1 cohort?
Creators: name: Fox, Molly
Publisher: name: OSF
Year: 2024

description: We will conduct linear regression models with maternal mental health outcomes and interaction terms between social support and household density, each operationalized in various ways. The hypothesis is that greater household density will dampen the beneficial effects of social support against depression, anxiety, and perceived stress, controlling for maternal age and whether she already has any kids (binary).

description: An accurate calculation of proton ranges in phantoms or detector geometries is crucial for decision making in proton therapy and proton imaging. To this end, several parameterizations of the range-energy relationship exist, with different levels of complexity and accuracy. In this study we compare the accuracy four different parameterizations models: Two analytical models derived from the Bethe equation, and two different interpolation schemes applied to range-energy tables. In conclusion, a spline interpolation scheme yields the highest reproduction accuracy, while the shape of the energy loss-curve is best reproduced with the differentiated Bragg-Kleeman equation.

Targeting pure quantum states by strong noncommutative dissipation

description: We propose a solution to the problem of realizing a predefined and arbitrary pure quantum state, based on the simultaneous presence of coherent and dissipative dynamics, noncommuting on the target state and in the limit of strong dissipation. More precisely, we obtain a necessary and sufficient criterion whereby the nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) of an open quantum system described by a Lindblad master equation approaches a target pure state in the Zeno regime, i.e., for infinitely large dissipative coupling. We also provide an explicit formula for the characteristic dissipative strength beyond which the purity of the NESS becomes effective, thus paving the way to an experimental implementation of our criterion. For an illustration, we deal with targeting a Bell state, an arbitrary pure state of $N$ qubits, and a spin-helix state of $N$ qubits.

description: A new experimental technique for creating and imaging collisions of micron-sized droplets settling under gravity is presented. A pair of glycerol droplets is suspended in air by means of two optical traps. The droplet relative velocities are determined by the droplet sizes. The impact parameter is precisely controlled by positioning the droplets using the two optical traps. The droplets are released by turning off the trapping light using electro-optical modulators. The motion of the sedimenting droplets is then captured by two synchronized high-speed cameras, at a frame rate of up to 63 kHz. The method allows the direct imaging of the collision of droplets without the influence of the optical confinement imposed by the trapping force. The method will facilitate efficient studies of the microphysics of neutral, as well as charged, liquid droplets and their interactions with light, electric field and thermodynamic environment, such as temperature or vapor concentration.

description: The measurement of muon momentum by Multiple Coulomb Scattering is a crucial ingredient to the reconstruction of νμ CC events in the ICARUS-T600 liquid argon TPC in absence of magnetic field, as in the search for sterile neutrinos at Fermilab where ICARUS will be exposed to ~1 GeV Booster neutrino beam. A sample of ~1000 stopping muons produced by charged current interactions of CNGS νμ in the surrounding rock at the INFN Gran Sasso underground Laboratory provides an ideal benchmark in the few-GeV range since their momentum can be directly and independently obtained by the calorimetric measurement. Stopping muon momentum in the 0.5- 4.5 GeV/c range has been reconstructed via Multiple Coulomb Scattering with resolution ranging from 10 to 25 % depending on muon energy, track length and uniformity of the electric field in the drift volume.

description: The aim of the thesis is the legal status of the family’s chief in ancient Greece and Rome. This thesis deals with the comparative overview of the legal issues arising from the family’s chief in ancient Greece and Rome. In the first chapter, I examined the acquisition of the family’s chief legal status. In particular, I stydied the main way of obtaining fatherly authority through marriage. I analyzed the legal aspects raised by the issue of having children, as well as the special role played by the institution of adoption in certain cases. Special mention is given to the status of slavery and the institution of concubinage as possible sources of acquiring the family’s chief legal status. The second chapter refers to the content of fatherly authority. Specifically, I examined the family’s chief authority against his wife, as well as the power relations between him and his children. The relationship between master and slave is also explored. Finally, the third chapter presents the restrictions against the abuse of fatherly authority and the termination’s ways.
