description: Surface Force Apparatus (SFA) allows to accurately resolve the interfacial properties of fluids confined between extended surfaces. The accuracy of the SFA makes it an ubiquitous tool for the nanoscale mechanical characterization of soft matter systems. The SFA traditionally measures force-distance profiles through interferometry with subnanometric distance precision. However, these techniques often require a dedicated and technically demanding experimental setup, and there remains a need for versatile and simple force-distance measurement tools. Here we present a MicroMegascope based dynamic Surface Force Apparatus capable of accurate measurement of the dynamic force profile of a liquid confined between a millimetric sphere and a planar substrate. Normal and shear mechanical impedance is measured within the classical Frequency Modulation framework. We measure rheological and frictional properties from micrometric to molecular confinement. We also highlight the resolution of small interfacial features such as ionic liquid layering. This apparatus shows promise as a versatile force-distance measurement device for exotic surfaces or extreme environments.

Electroweak Multiplet Dark Matter at Future Lepton Colliders

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An electroweak multiplet stable due to a new global symmetry is a simple and well-motivated candidate for thermal dark matter. We study how direct searches at a future linear collider, such as the proposed CLIC, can constrain scalar and fermion triplets, quintets and septets, as well as a fermion doublet. The phenomenology is highly sensitive to charged state lifetimes and thus the mass splitting between the members of the multiplet. We include both radiative corrections and the effect of non-renormalisable operators on this splitting. In order to explore the full range of charged state lifetimes, we consider signals including long-lived charged particles, disappearing tracks, and monophotons. By combining the different searches we find discovery and exclusion contours in the mass-lifetime plane. In particular, when the mass splitting is generated purely through radiative corrections, we can exclude the pure-Higgsino doublet below 310 GeV, the pure-wino triplet below 775 GeV, and the minimal dark matter fermion quintet below 1025 GeV. The scenario where the thermal relic abundance of a Higgsino accounts for the whole dark matter of the Universe can be excluded if the mass splitting between the charged and neutral states is less than 230 MeV. Finally, we discuss possible improvements to these limits by using associated hard leptons to idenify the soft visible decay products of the charged members of the dark matter multiplet.

description: A theory for the averaged optical characteristics of an ensemble of metal nanoparticles with different shapes has been developed. The theory is applicable both for the nanoparticle size at which the optical conductivity of the particle is a scalar and for the nanoparticle size at which the optical conductivity should be considered as a tensor. The averaged characteristics were obtained taking into account the influence of nanoparticle shape on the depolarization coefficient and the components of the optical conductivity tensor. The dependences of magnetic absorption by a spheroidal metal nanoparticle on the ratio between its curvature radii and the angle between the spheroid symmetry axis and the magnetic field vector were derived and theoretically considered. An original variant of the distribution function for nanoparticle shapes, which is based on the combined application of the Gaussian and \textquotedblleft hat\textquotedblright\ functions, was proposed and analyzed.

Charging Spectrum and Configurations of a Wigner Crystal Island

Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Charging of a clean two-dimensional island is studied in the regime of small concentration of electrons when they form the Wigner crystal. Two forms of electron-electron interaction potential are studied: the pure Coulomb interaction and the exponential interaction corresponding to the screening by a pair of close metallic gates. The electrons are assumed to reside in a parabolic external confining potential. Due to the crystalline symmetry the center of the confinement can be situated at distinct positions with respect to the crystal. With the increasing number of electrons $N$ the center periodically hops from one such a location to another providing the lowest total energy. These events occur with the period $\sim N^{1/2}$. At these moments in the case of the pure Coulomb interaction the charging energy of the island has a negative correction $\approx 15%$. For the case of the exponential interaction at the moments of switching the capacitance becomes negative and $\sim N^{1/4}$ new electrons enter the island simultaneously. The configurations of disclinations and dislocations in the island are also studied.

description: The electric control of magnetic anisotropy has important applications for nonvolatile memory and information processing. By first-principles calculations, we show a large nonvolatile control of magnetic anisotropy in ferromagnetic/ferroelectric CoPt/ZnO interface. Using the switched electric polarization of ZnO, the density-of-states and magnetic anisotropy at the CoPt surface show a large change. Due to a strong Co/Pt orbitals hybridization and a large spin-orbit coupling, a large control of magnetic anisotropy was found. We experimentally measured the change of effective anisotropy by tunneling resistance measurements in CoPt/Mg-doped ZnO/Co junctions. Additionally, we corroborate the origin of the control of magnetic anisotropy by observations on tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance.

description: Research in the brain-machine interface has the potential to transform the lives of individuals with limited motor capabilities to allow for greater independence. By directly accessing signals in the brain, it is possible to train a decoder to identify intended motion and allow the user to control a prosthetic limb or computer cursor by simply thinking about the motion. However, neural data recorded from implanted electrodes is highly unstable over time and across multiple sessions, leading to a severe drop in decoding performance as the test data becomes more distant from the data on which the decoder was trained. Here, we investigate a method to stabilize neural spike data from human trials of a center-out cursor control task before it is passed to a linear decoder, using the techniques of factor analysis and Procrustes alignment. We find that for highly variable human neural data from experiment dates that are far apart, the method does not help the decoder better predict cursor kinematics. However, when factor analysis weights are averaged over multiple baseline days, the performance of the decoder significantly increases with Procrustes alignment, which gives a promising method to limit recalibration and retraining of neural decoders by prolonging their higher accuracy performance over time.

description: We explore non-classical correlations in n-cycle setting. In particular, we focus on correlations manifested by Kochen-Specker-Klyachko box (KS box), scenarios involving n-cycle non-contextuality inequalities and Popescu-Rohlrich boxes (PR box). We provide the criteria for optimal classical simulation of a KS box of arbitrary n dimension. The non-contextuality inequalities are analysed for n-cycle setting, and the condition for the quantum violation for odd as well as even n-cycle is discussed. We offer a simple extension of even cycle non-contextuality inequalities to the continuous variable case. Furthermore, we simulate a generalized PR box using KS box and provide some interesting insights. Towards the end, we discuss a few possible interesting open problems for future research.

Our data demonstrate a crossover in the nature of the spin excitations between the spin liquid phase and the high-temperature paramagnetic state. The temperature dependence of both the specific heat and magnetization in the spin liquid phase can be fit within a simple model which assumes that the spin excitations have a gapped quadratic dispersion relation.

Neither the dynamical exponent z nor the roughness-exponent zeta have any correction in any order of perturbation theory. This shows that standard perturbation theory cannot attain the strong-coupling regime and in addition breaks down at d=4. We also calculate a class of correlation-functions exactly.

description: The present paper extends the classical second-order variational problem of Herglotz type to the more general context of the Euclidean sphere S^n following variational and optimal control approaches. The relation between the Hamiltonian equations and the generalized Euler-Lagrange equations is established. This problem covers some classical variational problems posed on the Riemannian manifold S^n such as the problem of finding cubic polynomials on S^n. It also finds applicability on the dynamics of the simple pendulum in a resistive medium.

description: This thesis concerns the design of a linear down-conversion mixer for use in heterodyne receivers with 1 GHz intermediate frequency. The topology used is based on the classical cross-coupled MOSFET-C lowpass filter structure. With the capacitors placed at the virtual ground nodes, a high input bandwidth can be achieved. The mixing is based on the modulation of the nMOS transistors in the triode region, which renders an excellent linearity. The mixer has been designed in a 90 nm CMOS IBM process. The design process includes schematic simulations, the layout of the input structure and post-layout simulations. The measured 3rd order intercept point (IIP3) of 24 dBm for a 60 GHz RF signal demonstrates the high linearity of the designed mixer.

description: [Context] Quality requirements are important for product success yet often handled poorly. The problems with scope decision lead to delayed handling and an unbalanced scope. [Objective] This study characterizes the scope decision process to understand influencing factors and properties affecting the scope decision of quality requirements. [Method] We studied one company's scope decision process over a period of five years. We analyzed the decisions artifacts and interviewed experienced engineers involved in the scope decision process. [Results] Features addressing quality aspects explicitly are a minor part (4.41%) of all features handled. The phase of the product line seems to influence the prevalence and acceptance rate of quality features. Lastly, relying on external stakeholders and upfront analysis seems to lead to long lead-times and an insufficient quality requirements scope. [Conclusions] There is a need to make quality mode explicit in the scope decision process. We propose a scope decision process at a strategic level and a tactical level. The former to address long-term planning and the latter to cater for a speedy process. Furthermore, we believe it is key to balance the stakeholder input with feedback from usage and market in a more direct way than through a long plan-driven process.

description: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs which play a significant role in several biological processes. RNA-seq based transcriptome sequencing has been extensively used for identification of lncRNAs. However, accurate identification of lncRNAs in RNA-seq datasets is crucial for exploring their characteristic functions in the genome as most coding potential computation (CPC) tools fail to accurately identify them in transcriptomic data. Well-known CPC tools such as CPC2, lncScore, CPAT are primarily designed for prediction of lncRNAs based on the GENCODE, NONCODE and CANTATAdb databases. The prediction accuracy of these tools often drops when tested on transcriptomic datasets. This leads to higher false positive results and inaccuracy in the function annotation process. In this study, we present a novel tool, PLIT, for the identification of lncRNAs in plants RNA-seq datasets. PLIT implements a feature selection method based on L1 regularization and iterative Random Forests (iRF) classification for selection of optimal features. Based on sequence and codon-bias features, it classifies the RNA-seq derived FASTA sequences into coding or long non-coding transcripts. Using L1 regularization, 31 optimal features were obtained based on lncRNA and protein-coding transcripts from 8 plant species. The performance of the tool was evaluated on 7 plant RNA-seq datasets using 10-fold cross-validation. The analysis exhibited superior accuracy when evaluated against currently available state-of-the-art CPC tools.

description: We report on the high-temperature evolution of far- and mid- infrared reflectivity and emissivity spectra of ambient orthorhombic ErMnO3 from 12 K to sample decomposition above 1800 K. At low temperatures the number of phonons agrees with the predictions for orthorhombic space group D2h16-Pbnm (Z=4) and coexists with a paramagnon spin resonance and rare earth crystal field transitions. Increasing the temperature, a number of vibrational bands undergo profile broadening and softening approaching the orbital disordered phase where the orthorhombic O' lower temperature cooperative phase coexists with cubic-orthorhombic O. O-ErMnO3 undergoes a first order order-disorder transition into the perovskite cubic phase at Tcubic ~1329 K where the three triple degenerate phonons allowed by the space group Pm-3m(Z=1) are identified. At about 800 K, a quantitative small polaron analysis of the orthorhombic mid-infrared real part optical conductivity shows that antisymmetric and symmetric breathing modes sustain the strongest electron-phonon interactions. Above Tcubic the bipolaron fingerprint profile is the mid-infrared dominant and only feature. Its appearance correlates with the localized screening of the highest vibrational mode reststrahlen band. We propose that the longitudinal optical mode macroscopic field screening is consequence of dynamically sharing δ disproportioned eg electrons hovering over the JT distorted octahedral dimer [Mn (QJT)3+δ (Mn(QJT)3-δ))O6/2]2. A thermal driven insulator-metal transition is detected with onset ~1600 K. We also address the occurrence of an inhomogeneity induced THz band result of heating the samples in dry air, triggering Mn3+-Mn4+ double exchange, under the presence of Mn4+ smaller ions stabilizing the orthorhombic lattice.

description: Quantum interference effects in rings provide suitable means to control spins at the mesoscopic scale. In this chapter we present the theory underlying spin-induced modulations of unpolarized currents in quantum rings subject to the Rashba spin-orbit interaction. We discuss explicitly the connection between the conductance modulations and the geometric phase acquired by the spin during transport, as well as pathways to directly control them.

description: We have studied the superconducting properties of LaIr$_3$ with a rhombohedral structure using magnetization, heat capacity, and muon-spin rotation/relaxation ($μ$SR) measurements. The zero-field cooled and field cooled susceptibility measurements exhibit a superconducting transition below $T_{\mathrm{C}}$ = 2.5 K. Magnetization measurements indicate bulk type-II superconductivity with upper critical field $μ_0H_{\mathrm{c2}}(0)$ = 3.84 T. Two successive transitions are observed in heat capacity data, one at $T_{\mathrm{C}}$ = 2.5 K and a second at 1.2 K below $T_{\mathrm{C}}$ whose origin remain unclear. The heat capacity jump reveals $ΔC$/$γT_{\mathrm{C}} \sim$ 1.0 which is lower than 1.43 expected for BCS weak coupling limit. Transverse field-$μ$SR measurements reveal a fully gapped $s-$wave superconductivity with 2$Δ(0)/k_{\mathrm{B}}T_{\mathrm{C}}$ = 3.31, which is small compared to BCS value 3.56, suggesting weak coupling superconductivity. Moreover the study of the temperature dependence of the magnetic penetration depth estimated using the transverse field-$μ$SR measurements gives a zero temperature value of the magnetic penetration depth $λ_{\mathrm{L}}(0)$ = 386(3) nm, superconducting carrier density $n_{\mathrm{s}}$ = 2.9(1) $\times$10$^{27}$ carriers $m^{-3}$ and the carriers' effective-mass enhancement $m^{*}$ = 1.53(1) $m_{\mathrm{e}}$. Our zero-field-$μ$SR measurements do not reveal the spontaneous appearance of an internal magnetic field below the transition temperature, which indicates that time-reversal symmetry is preserved in the superconducting state of LaIr$_3$.

description: The correlations in charge transport in multiple Majorana fermions systems contain much richer physics and carry more information than the conventional transport coefficients. We calculate the auto- and cross-correlations in the spinful topological Kondo model and point out the frequencies dependencies of the correlations that may serve as a proof of the existence of the Majorana fermions in our system, particularly the change of the cross-correlation from positive to negative at higher frequency.

description: We utilize spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) measurements to experimentally investigate the pure spin current transport and magnetic properties of nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4,NFO)/normal metal (NM) thin film heterostructures. We use (001)-oriented NFO thin films grown on lattice-matched magnesium gallate substrates by pulsed laser deposition, which significantly improves the magnetic and structural properties of the ferrimagnetic insulator. The NM in our experiments is either Pt or Ta. A comparison of the obtained SMR magnitude for charge currents applied in the [100]- and [110]-direction of NFO yields a change of 50% for Pt at room temperature. We also investigated the temperature dependence of this current direction anisotropy and find that it is qualitatively different for the conductivity and the SMR magnitude. From our results we conclude that the observed current direction anisotropy may originate from an anisotropy of the spin mixing conductance or of the spin Hall effect in these Pt and Ta layers, and/or additional spin-galvanic contributions from the NFO/NM interface.

description: Purpose: To describe a new methodology for tear-film dynamics assessment by observing fluorescein decay rate over time and to understand the relationship between the newly defined tear fluorescein washout rate (TFWR)and other measures of the tear film behaviour. Methods: Forty subjects (24F/16M) aged (mean +/- standard deviation) 31.8 +/- 14.2 years volunteered for the study. It consisted of the review of medical history, McMonnies questionnaire (McMQ), slit lamp examination, and TFWR using a newly-developed fluorescein profilometry. The repeatability of TFWR measurements was assessed. TFWR estimates were contrasted against patient age, McMQ score, daytime, fluorescein tear film breakup time (FTBUT), tear meniscus height (TMH) and blink frequency. Results: Mean repeatability of the method was 28.13 +/- 9.59%. The group mean TFWR was 39 +/- 23% at 30-s mark after the beginning of measurements, ranging from 1.4% to 83%. This indicates that TFWR is highly subject-dependent. Statistically significant correlations were found between the percentage TFWR and McMQ score (r2 =0.214, p = 0.001) as well as FTBUT (r2 =0.136, p = 0.009). No statistically significant correlations were found between TFWR and age, daytime, TMH, and blink frequency. Conclusions: Fluorescein profilometry allows clinicians to follow dynamic changes in the tear film on the entire ocular surface and may be used for qualitative assessment of the tear film dynamics.

title: Die rechtliche Stellung von Lootboxen in Videospielen in Österreich mit Blick auf den Jugendschutz
Creators: name: Kattinger, Alexander
Year: 2024

description: Diese Masterarbeit widmet sich der eingehenden Untersuchung der rechtlichen Stellung von Lootboxen in Videospielen in Österreich, insbesondere im Hinblick auf den Jugendschutz. Vor dem Hintergrund der zunehmenden Verbreitung von Lootboxen in Videospielen und der damit verbundenen rechtlichen und gesellschaftlichen Fragestellungen zielt diese Arbeit darauf ab, ein umfassendes Bild der (glücksspiel-)rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen zu zeichnen, die in Österreich Anwendung finden. Diese Thematik spielt gerade für die Gesundheit und Entwicklung von Kindern und Jugendlichen eine erhebliche Rolle. Obwohl der Politik diese Problematik rund um Lootboxen in Videospielen schon seit Längerem bekannt ist, wurde es bis dato verabsäumt, einen ausreichenden Schutzstandard gegen Lootboxen in Videospielen zu etablieren. Zudem bleiben aufgrund des Fehlens einer höchstgerichtlichen Entscheidung viele Fragen offen, insbesondere im Bereich des Jugendschutzes. Die Arbeit wird zeigen, dass die meisten entgeltlichen Lootboxen als Glücksspiel nach dem österreichischen Glücksspielgesetz zu qualifizieren sind und somit illegales Glücksspiel darstellen. Zudem wird gezeigt, dass der Jugendschutz in diesem Bereich aktuell nicht gewährleistet ist.
description: This Master's thesis is dedicated to an in-depth examination of the legal status of loot boxes in video games in Austria, particularly regarding youth protection. Considering the increasing spread of loot boxes in video games and the associated legal and social issues, this work aims to give a comprehensive overview on the gambling-related legal framework applicable in Austria. Gambling significantly endangers the health and development of children and adolescents. Although responsible politicians have been aware of this issue for some time, there has been a failure to establish sufficient protection standards against loot boxes in video games. Due to the lack of a supreme court decision many questions remain unsolved especially in the field of youth protection. This thesis will show that most purchasable loot boxes must be classified as illegal gambling according to Austrian gambling law. Additionally, it will demonstrate that youth protection in this field is currently not ensured adequately.

description: The DFT-1/2 method in density functional theory [L. G. Ferreira et al., Phys. Rev. B 78, 125116 (2008)] aims to provide accurate band gaps at the computational cost of semilocal calculations. The method has shown promise in a large number of cases, however some of its limitations or ambiguities on how to apply it to covalent semiconductors have been pointed out recently [K.-H. Xue et al., Comput. Mater. Science 153, 493 (2018)]. In this work, we investigate in detail some of the problems of the DFT-1/2 method with a focus on two classes of materials: covalently bonded semiconductors and transition-metal oxides. We argue for caution in the application of DFT-1/2 to these materials, and the condition to get an improved band gap is a spatial separation of the orbitals at the valence band maximum and conduction band minimum.

description: We use the Laplace/Borel sum rules (LSR) and the finite energy/local duality sum rules (FESR) to investigate the non-strange $ud\bar u\bar d$ and hidden-strange $us\bar u\bar s$ tetraquark states with exotic quantum numbers $J^{PC}=0^{+-}$ . We systematically construct all eight possible tetraquark currents in this channel without covariant derivative operator. Our analyses show that the $ud\bar u\bar d$ systems have good behaviour of sum rule stability and expansion series convergence in both the LSR and FESR analyses, while the LSR for the $us\bar u\bar s$ states do not associate with convergent OPE series in the stability regions and only the FESR can provide valid results. We give the mass predictions $1.43\pm0.09$ GeV and $1.54\pm0.12$ GeV for the $ud\bar u\bar d$ and $us\bar u\bar s$ tetraquark states, respectively. Our results indicate that the $0^{+-}$ isovector $us\bar u\bar s$ tetraquark may only decay via weak interaction mechanism, e.g. $X_{us\bar{u}\bar{s}}\to Kππ$, since its strong decays are forbidden by kinematics and the symmetry constraints on the exotic quantum numbers. It is predicted to be very narrow, if it does exist. The $0^{+-}$ isoscalar $us\bar u\bar s$ tetraquark is also predicted to be not very wide because its dominate decay mode $X_{us\bar{u}\bar{s}}\toϕππ$ is in $P$-wave.
