description: We establish the double perovskite Ba$_2$CeIrO$_6$ as a nearly ideal model system for j=1/2 moments, with resonant inelastic x-ray scattering indicating a deviation of less than 1% from the ideally cubic j=1/2 state. The local j=1/2 moments form an fcc lattice and are found to order antiferromagnetically at $T_N$=14K, more than an order of magnitude below the Curie-Weiss temperature. Model calculations show that the geometric frustration of the fcc Heisenberg antiferromagnet is further enhanced by a next-nearest neighbor exchange, indicated by ab initio theory. Magnetic order is driven by a bond-directional Kitaev exchange and by local distortions via a strong magneto-elastic effect - both effects are typically not expected for j=1/2 compounds making Ba2CeIrO6 a riveting example for the rich physics of spin-orbit entangled Mott insulators.

description: It is known that the event horizon of a black hole can often be identified from the zeroes of some curvature invariants. The situation in lower dimensions has not been thoroughly clarified. In this work we investigate both (2+1)- and (1+1)-dimensional black hole horizons of static, stationary and dynamical black holes, identified with the zeroes of scalar polynomial and Cartan curvature invariants, with the purpose of discriminating the different roles played by the Weyl and Riemann curvature tensors. The situations and applicability of the methods are found to be quite different from that in 4-dimensional spacetime. The suitable Cartan invariants employed for detecting the horizon can be interpreted as a local extremum of the tidal force suggesting that the horizon of a black hole is a genuine special hypersurface within the full manifold, contrary to the usual claim that there is nothing special at the horizon, which is said to be a consequence of the equivalence principle.

The effect on cosmological parameter estimation of a parameter dependent covariance matrix

description: Cosmological large-scale structure analyses based on two-point correlation functions often assume a Gaussian likelihood function with a fixed covariance matrix. We study the impact on cosmological parameter estimation of ignoring the parameter dependence of this covariance matrix, focusing on the particular case of joint weak-lensing and galaxy clustering analyses. Using a Fisher matrix formalism (calibrated against exact likelihood evaluation in particular simple cases), we quantify the effect of using a parameter dependent covariance matrix on both the bias and variance of the parameters. We confirm that the approximation of a parameter-independent covariance matrix is exceptionally good in all realistic scenarios. The information content in the covariance matrix (in comparison with the two point functions themselves) does not change with the fractional sky coverage. Therefore the increase in information due to the parameter dependent covariance matrix becomes negligible as the number of modes increases. Even for surveys covering less than $1\%$ of the sky, this effect only causes a bias of up to ${\cal O}(10\%)$ of the statistical uncertainties, with a misestimation of the parameter uncertainties at the same level or lower. The effect will only be smaller with future large-area surveys. Thus for most analyses the effect of a parameter-dependent covariance matrix can be ignored both in terms of the accuracy and precision of the recovered cosmological constraints.

Higher twists in deep inelastic scattering

description: We perform an exploratory study of higher twist contributions to deep inelastic scattering. We estimate the size of two major sources of higher twist, namely absorptive corrections and the vector meson dominance (VMD) contribution. We find that they give a sizeable higher twist component of F_2. For example at x = 0.01 it is about 8% (17%) at Q^2 = 10 GeV^2 (4 GeV^2), reaching up to 27% at x = 10^{-4} and Q^2 = 4 GeV^2. At the smaller x value the largest contribution comes from absorptive corrections, while at the larger values of x the VMD term dominates.

description: A set of infinitesimal ${\rm Virasoro_{\,L}}\otimes{\rm Virasoro_{\,R}}$ diffeomorphisms are presented which act non-trivially on the horizon of a generic Kerr black hole with spin J. The covariant phase space formalism provides a formula for the Virasoro charges as surface integrals on the horizon. Integrability and associativity of the charge algebra are shown to require the inclusion of `Wald-Zoupas' counterterms. A counterterm satisfying the known consistency requirement is constructed and yields central charges $c_L=c_R=12J$. Assuming the existence of a quantum Hilbert space on which these charges generate the symmetries, as well as the applicability of the Cardy formula, the central charges reproduce the macroscopic area-entropy law for generic Kerr black holes.

The Host Galaxies Properties of the PTF Core-Collapse Supernova Sample
Creators: name: Schulze, Steve
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: The paradigm shift from galaxy-selected to quasi-synoptic surveys has led to a revolution in the study of optical transients. The Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) has played an important role in this revolution. PTF was a fully-automated, wide-field survey using the 1.2-m Samuel Oschin telescope (P48) at Palomar Observatory and was operated between March 2009 and the beginning of 2017. During that period, PTF discovered over 900 core-collapse supernovae. In this talk, I will present host galaxy properties of the core-collapse supernova sample. For each host, I have obtained photometry from the rest-frame UV to the MIR and modelled the spectral energy distributions to extract the mass and star-formation rate. I will discuss the distribution functions of various sub-classes and show how we can use those to draw indirect evidence on the progenitor populations. Furthermore, I will give an outlook on 1) how supernovae in extreme-emission lines galaxies can be used to obtain a better understanding of superluminous supernovae and 2) how we can gain a better understanding of the star-formation process in these starburst galaxies by using different types of core-collapse supernovae.

description: We consider the Ruelle zeta function $R(s)$ of a genus $g$ hyperbolic Riemann surface with $n$ punctures and $v$ ramification points. $R(s)$ is equal to $Z(s)/Z(s+1)$, where $Z(s)$ is the Selberg zeta function. The main result of this work is the leading behavior of $R(s)$ at $s=0$. If $n_0$ is the order of the determinant of the scattering matrix $φ(s)$ at $s=0$, we find that \begin{align*} \lim_{s\rightarrow 0}\frac{R(s)}{s^{2g-2+n-n_0}}=(-1)^{\frac{A}{2}+1}(2π)^{2g-2+n }\tildeφ(0)^{-1} \prod_{j=1}^v m_j, \end{align*}which says that $R(s)$ has order $2g-2+n-n_0$ at $s=0$, and its leading coefficient can be expressed in terms of $m_1$, $m_2$, $\ldots$, $m_v$, the ramification indices at the ramification points, and $\tildeφ(0)$, the leading coefficient of $φ(s)$ at $s=0$. The constant $A$ is an even integer, equal to twice the multiplicity of the eigenvalue $-1$ in the scattering matrix $Φ(s)$ at $s=1/2$, and $(-1)^{\frac{A}{2}}=φ\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$. We also consider the order of the Ruelle zeta function at other integers.

description: We present two classes of exact solutions to a geometric model which describes the kinetics of fragmentation of $d$-dimensional hypercuboid-shaped objects. The first class of exact solutions is described by a fragmentation rate $a({x_1},...,{x_d}) = 1$ and daughter distribution function $b({x_1},..,{x_d} | {{x_{1}^{\p}}},...,{{x_{d}^{\p}}})= {(\a_1 + 2)x_1^{\a_1}\over{x_1^{\p(\a_1+1)}}}...{(\a_d+2)x_d^{\a_d}\over {x_d^{\p(\a_d+1)}}}$. The second class of exact solutions is described by a fragmentation rate $ a({x_1},...,{x_d}) = {{{x_1}^{\a_1}}...{{x_d}^{\a_d}}/{2^d}}$ and a daughter distribution function $b({x_1},..,{x_d} | {{x_{1}^{\p}}},...,{{x_{d}^{\p}}}) = {2^d}{\d(x_1 - {{x_{1}^\p}}/2)...\d(x_d - {{x_{d}^\p}}/2)}$. Each class of exact solutions is analyzed in detail for the presence of scaling solutions and the occurrence of shattering transitions; the results of these analyses are also presented.

description: X-ray crystallography is widely used to solve high resolution protein structures, but only when the protein can be crystalized. NMR spectroscopy can be performed in solution, which is much more similar to the natural protein environment in a cell. X-ray and NMR structures of the same proteins, which are available from the Protein Data Bank, are largely similar, but not identical. By understanding the differences between NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography structures, it may be possible to better understand the structure and function of proteins in the cells. Computational geometry analysis of nearest neighbor residues in different conformations of NMR ensemble is first used to identify the consistent parts of NMR structures and the factors which affect this consistency. X-ray and NMR structures of the same protein are then compared to pinpoint the differences and the factors which affect these differences. A number of geometrical and topological factors were identified which are linked to the consistency of the simplexes across the conformations, including solvent accessibility, simplex residue content, secondary structure, shape of simplex, and type of simplex (based on sequence).

description: We argue that the tree-level graviton-scalar scattering in the Regge limit is unitarized by non-perturbative effects within General Relativity. At Planckian energy the back reaction of the incoming graviton on the background geometry produces a non-perturbative plane wave which, in turn, softens the UV-behavior. Our amplitude then interpolates between the perturbative graviton-scalar scattering at low energy and scattering on a classical plane wave in the Regge limit.

description: The edible and medicinal agaricoid and polyporoid mushrooms (phylum Basidiomycota, order Agaricomycetes) have long been known by humans as valuable food and medicines. They are producers of different groups of high- and low-molecular weight bioactive compounds (alkaloids, phenolics, polysaccharides, proteins, terpenoids, vitamins etc.) with around 130 therapeutic effects, including neuroprotective. Mushroom-derived biotech products are reported as effective neuroprotectants, however their potential to prevent or mitigate several neurodegenerative pathologies, such as Alzheimer and Parkinson diseases, epilepsy, depression and others has not been fully explored. This review discusses the neuroprotective potential of Agaricomycetes fungi and possibilities for their application as natural neuroprotectants.

The plasmas are found to be in equilibrium at a temperature of approximately 6500 K and a pressure of 1 atm. A system was designed in order to make measurements without being subject to oxygen absorption. The measured emission is compared with theoretical predictions made using the SPECAIR radiation code. For the range of wavelengths examined, SPECAIR works very well at predicting the measured emission.

description: The development of insulation is of crucial importance for spacecraft with cryogenic tank systems. During the fueling procedure with cryogenic liquids the outer tank shell is cooled down with the rise of icing. In case of the hydrogen tanks the condensation of liquid oxygen is likely to occur, which is a great hazard to the spacecraft. The presented work is part of the AKIRA project performed by the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Reference configuration for the insulation concept uses a reusable booster stage with a liquid hydrogen/oxygen engine. This study aims to contribute in the development of a reusable insulation system for both, the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen tank. For the design of the insulation system, different common insulations types are investigated about their applicability for a RLV. Due to the booster flight trajectory, surface temperatures higher than 1000 K are expected to occur while spacecraft re-entry, which requires a proper Thermal Protection System (TPS). To achieve these temperature requirements, the thickness of the insulation increases and leads into a higher structural mass. To tackle this problem, a `Purge Gap\' between the cryogenic insulation and the TPS is investigated. Purging a gap between the insulation and the TPS with a dry gas provides a small excess pressure that prevents humid air from entering into the system. Thus the total thickness of the insulation system and consequently the structural mass can be reduced. In order to support the design process, 1D-tools were developed for the calculation of transient heat conduction and the temperature profile evolution in the insulation system during the whole flight trajectory. Experimental investigations have been carried out to observe the long-term stability for different types of insulation materials. An experimental setup was developed and serval insulation samples were tested A cold head system is used which is able to cool down the samples to a temperature of about 20 K. Commercial `of the shelf\' insulation foams look promising in withstanding typical lifecycles of a RLV, such like the booster reference configuration.

description: This paper gives an overview of the proposed GNC architecture for DLR\'s Reusability Flight Experiment (ReFEx), which is split into two main subsystems: The Guidance and Control (GC) subsystem, which determines the desired trajectory from the current flight state to a designated target and issues the necessary commands to the actuators (canards and rudder, as well as a reaction control system for flight phases outside the atmosphere) by calculating the necessary forces and torques based on the required changes of velocity and attitude for following this trajectory; the Hybrid Navigation System (HNS), which is responsible for estimating position, velocity, attitude, angular rates, and other parameters of the flight state. It does so by real-time fusion of measurements of inertial sensors (accelerometers and gyroscopes) with the measurements of GNSS receivers, Sun sensors, laser and radar altimeters. The requirements and boundary conditions set by the mission, the current design baseline for both subsystems, the stability analyses for flight control, the basic guidance strategy chosen as well as the navigation performance assessment through covariance analysis are described and discussed.

description: When probed with conformally invariant matter fields, light cones in Minkowski spacetime satisfy thermodynamical relations which are the analog of those satisfied by stationary black holes coupled to standard matter fields. These properties stem from the fact that light cones are conformal Killing horizons stationary with respect to observers following the radial conformal Killing fields in flat spacetime. The four laws of light cone thermodynamics relate notions such as (conformal) temperature, (conformal) surface gravity, (conformal) energy and a conformally invariant notion related to area change. These quantities do not admit a direct physical interpretation in flat spacetime. However, they become the usual thermodynamical quantities when Minkowski is mapped, via a Weyl transformation, to a target spacetime where the conformal Killing field becomes a proper Killing field. In this paper we study the properties of such spacetimes. The simplest realisation turns out to be the Bertotti-Robinson solution, which is known to encode the near horizon geometry of near extremal and extremal charged black holes. The analogy between light cones in flat space and black hole horizons is therefore strengthened. The construction works in arbitrary dimensions; in two dimensions one recovers the Jackiv-Teitelboim black hole of dilaton gravity. Other interesting realisations are also presented.

description: We examine the validity of the recently proposed semi-Poisson level spacing distribution function P(S), which characterizes `critical quantum chaos', in 2D disordered systems with spin-orbit coupling. At the Anderson transition we show that the semi-Poisson P(S) can describe closely the critical distribution obtained with averaged boundary conditions, over Dirichlet in one direction with periodic in the other and Dirichlet in both directions. We also obtain a sub-Poisson linear number variance $Σ_{2}(E)\approx χ_{0}+ χE$, with asymptotic value $χ\approx0.07$. The obtained critical statistics, intermediate between Wigner and Poisson, is relevant for disordered systems and chaotic models.

Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2020

description: Patient data are regarded as highly sensitive and protected by federal, state and local policies that make it available to only those who have been given access to protected health information. Synthetic data generation provides one possible solution to the issue of limited access, but at the same time, it is a key challenge in big data benchmarking that aims to generate application-specific datasets. In this dissertation, first, a comprehensive literature on synthetic data generation is presented which helps readers and practitioners in effectively adopting data generator approaches and provides an insight into its state-of-the-art. Next, a Machine Learning (ML)-based algorithm, Intelligent Patient Data Generator (IntPDG), is proposed to generate scalable patient claims data. In order to construct a model for generating high quality of patient data, two main elements including back window size and hyperparameters of different ML algorithms are investigated. Besides, a data evaluation measure, Weighted Itemset Error (WIE), is presented and used to evaluate the quality of the generated data in hyperparameter optimization. To generate claim level data from patient level data, patterns and data structures of actual patient claims data are gathered and used in probabilistic models. Once the data generator method is constructed, it is tested on simulating Medicare carrier claims data, consisting of three datasets: patient demographic table, patient claim table, and patient line table. To add another layer of validation to the synthetic data, summary statistics of the generated datasets are compared with that of Medicare data and result confirms the consistency and validity of the simulated claims data. The developed data generator method can be used to generate any sizes and any types of claims data such as inpatient and outpatient claims data or can be extended to generate other medical data such as Electronic Health Records (EHR).

title: Artificial Neural Networks in Public Policy: Towards an Analytical Framework
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2020

description: This dissertation assesses how artificial neural networks (ANNs) and other machine learning systems should be devised, built, and implemented in US governmental organizations (i.e. public agencies). While it primarily focuses on ANNs given their current prevalence and accuracy, many of its conclusions are broadly applicable to other kinds of machine learning as well. It develops an analytical framework, drawn from diverse fields including law, behavioral psychology, public policy, and computer science, that public agency managers and analysts can utilize. The framework yields a series of principles based on my research methodology that I argue are the most relevant to public agencies. The qualitative methodology consists of an iterative approach based on archival research, peer review, expert interviews, and comparative analysis. Critically, this dissertation’s intent is not to provide the specific answers to all questions related to machine learning in public agencies. Given the speed at which this field changes, attempting to provide universally applicable answers would be difficult and short term at best. Rather, this framework focuses on principles which can help guide the user to the proper questions they need to ask for their particular use case. In that same vein, the normative principles it provides are procedurally focused in scope rather than focused on policy outcomes. In other words, this framework is meant to be equally applicable regardless of what one’s specific policy goals are.

We describe practical methods for creating arbitrary configurations of optical tweezers using computer-generated diffractive optical elements.

description: We have performed microwave spectroscopy of Andreev states in superconducting weak links tailored in an InAs-Al (core-full shell) epitaxially-grown nanowire. The spectra present distinctive features, with bundles of four lines crossing when the superconducting phase difference across the weak link is 0 or $π.$ We interpret these as arising from zero-field spin-split Andreev states. A simple analytical model, which takes into account the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in a nanowire containing several transverse subbands, explains these features and their evolution with magnetic field. Our results show that the spin degree of freedom is addressable in Josephson junctions, and constitute a first step towards its manipulation.

Continuous Elastic Phase Transitions in Pure and Disordered Crystals

description: We review the theory of second--order (ferro--)elastic phase transitions, where the order parameter consists of a certain linear combination of strain tensor components, and the accompanying soft mode is an acoustic phonon. In three--dimensional crystals, the softening can occur in one-- or two--dimensional soft sectors. The ensuing anisotropy reduces the effect of fluctuations, rendering the critical behaviour of these systems classical for a one--dimensional soft sector, and classical with logarithmic corrections in case of a two--dimensional soft sector. The dynamical critical exponent is $z = 2$, and as a consequence the sound velocity vanishes as $c_s \propto | T - T_c |^{1/2}$, while the phonon damping coefficient is essentially temperature--independent. Disorder may lead to a variety of precursor effects and modified critical behaviour. Defects that locally soften the crystal may induce the phenomenon of local order parameter condensation. When the correlation length of the pure system exceeds the average defect separation $n_{\rm D}^{-1/3}$, a disorder--induced phase transition to a state with non--zero average order parameter can occur at a temperature $T_c(n_{\rm D})$ well above the transition temperature $T_c^0$ of the pure crystal. Near $T_c^0$, the order--parameter curve, susceptibility, and specific heat appear rounded. For $T < T_c(n_{\rm D})$ the spatial inhomogeneity induces a static central peak with finite $q$ width in the scattering cross section, accompanied by a dynamical component that is confined to the very vicinity of the disorder--induced phase transition.

description: Objective: Motor vehicle occupants aged 8 to 12 years are in transition, in terms of both restraint use (booster seat or vehicle belt) and anatomical development. Rear-seated occupants in this age group are more likely to be inappropriately restrained than other age groups, increasing their vulnerability to spinal injury. The skeletal anatomy of an 8- to 12-year-old child is also in developmental transition, resulting in spinal injury patterns that are unique to this age group. The objective of this study is to identify the upper spine injuries commonly experienced in the 8- to 12-year-old age group so that anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs) representing this size of occupant can be optimized to predict the risk of these injuries. Methods: Motor vehicle crash cases from the National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB) were analyzed to characterize the location and nature of cervical and thoracic spine injuries in 8- to 12-year-old crash occupants compared to younger (age 0–7) and older age groups (age 13–19, 20–39). Results: Spinal injuries in this trauma center data set tended to occur at more inferior vertebral levels with older age, with patients in the 8- to 12-year-old group diagnosed with thoracic injury more frequently than cervical injury, in contrast to younger occupants, for whom the proportion of cases with cervical injury outnumbered the proportion of cases with thoracic injury. With the cervical spine, a higher proportion of 8- to 12-year-olds had upper spine injury than adults, but a substantially lower proportion of 8- to 12-year-olds had upper spine injury than younger children. In terms of injury type, the 8- to 12-year-old group’s injury patterns were more similar to those of teens and adults, with a higher relative proportion of fracture than younger children, who were particularly vulnerable to dislocation and soft tissue injuries. However, unlike for adults and teens, catastrophic atlanto-occipital dislocations were still more common than any other type of dislocation for 8- to 12-year-olds and vertebral body fractures were particularly frequent in this age group. Conclusions: Spinal injury location in the cervical and thoracic spine moved downward with age in this trauma center data set. This shift in injury pattern supports the need for measurement of thoracic and lower cervical spine loading in ATDs representing the 8- to 12-year-old age group.

description: In a recent Letter, Nakamura et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 1538 (1999)] described first principles calculations for a breaking Na nanocontact. Their system consists of a periodic one-dimensional array of supercells, each of which contains 39 Na atoms, originally forming a straight, crystalline wire with a length of 6 atoms. The system is elongated by increasing the length of the unit cell. At each step, the atomic configuration is relaxed to a new local equilibrium, and the tensile force is evaluated from the change of the total energy with elongation. Aside from a discontinuity of the force occuring at the transition from a crytalline to an amorphous configuration during the early stages of elongation, they were unable to identify any simple correlations between the force and the number of electronic modes transmitted through the contact. An important question is whether their model is realistic, i.e., whether it can be compared to experimental results obtained for a single nanocontact between two macroscopic pieces of metal. In this Comment, we demonstrate that with such a small unit cell, the interference effects between neighboring contacts are of the same size as the force oscillations in a single nanocontact.

description: Children must learn how and when to portray emotions for social communication and appropriate emotional responses to various social situations. The purpose of this study was to investigate under what conditions children can create forced emotions that are easily read by coders. The study investigates whether there are differences in children’s false emotion portrayals when emotions are mimicked from a model or not mimicked, and whether there are differences if they have been modeled in a realistic manner or an exaggerated manner. This study is a secondary data analysis from a dataset that includes coder-scored data on the technical, emotional, and physical aspects of children’s emotional portrayals. Participants were asked to create emotion portrayals for target emotions of hurt, sad, scared, and tired. The participants were given video models of three out of the four emotions and were asked to mimic as closely as possible, and then were asked to create their own portrayal for the fourth emotion. Data in the current study focused on physical differences (e.g. hand gestures, Laban Effort analysis, overall physical engagement) and level of coded accuracy for each emotion portrayal. Results show that there are differences in physical engagement and hand gesture use based on whether the mimicked model was a realistic or exaggerated portrayal of the emotion.

description: We study the spin dynamics in a p-wave superconductor at the nesting vector associated with $α$ and $β$ bands in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. We find a collective mode at the nesting vector in the superconducting phase identified as the odd-parity pairing state which breaks time reversal symmetry. This mode in the spin channel only exists in the p-wave superconductor, not in s- or d-wave superconductors. We propose that probing this mode would clarify the pairing symmetry in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. The possibility of second superconducting phase transition is also discussed.
