description: Though the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) was originally developed to model the ambient concentrations of pollutants, most subsequent applications have focused on pollution emissions. Yet, it seems more likely that economic growth could eventually reduce the concentrations of local pollutants than emissions. We examine the role of income, convergence, and time related factors in explaining recent changes in PM 2.5 and PM 10 particulate pollution in 50 Chinese cities using new measures of ambient air quality that the Chinese government has published only since the beginning of 2013. We use a recently developed model that relates the rate of change of pollution to the growth of the economy and other factors as well as the traditional environmental Kuznets curve model. Pollution fell sharply from 2013 to 2014. We show that economic growth, convergence, and time effects all served to lower the level of pollution. The results also demonstrate the relationship between the two modeling approaches.
Effects of the Intergalactic Plasma on Supernova Dimming via Photon-Axion Oscillations

description: We have recently proposed a mechanism of photon-axion oscillations as a way of rendering supernovae dimmer without cosmic acceleration. Subsequently, it has been argued that the intergalactic plasma may interfere adversely with this mechanism by rendering the oscillations energy dependent. Here we show that this energy dependence is extremely sensitive to the precise value of the free electron density in the Universe. Decreasing the electron density by only a factor of 4 is already sufficient to bring the energy dependence within the experimental bounds. Models of the intergalactic medium show that for redshifts z<1 about 97% of the total volume of space is filled with regions of density significantly lower than the average density. From these models we estimate that the average electron density in most of space is lower by at least a factor of 15 compared to the estimate based on one half of all baryons being uniformly distributed and ionized. Therefore the energy dependence of the photon-axion oscillations is consistent with experiment, and the oscillation model remains a viable alternative to the accelerating Universe for explaining the supernova observations. Furthermore, the electron density does give rise to a sufficiently large plasma frequency which cuts off the photon-axion mixing above microwave frequencies, shielding the cosmic microwave photons from axion conversions and significantly relaxing the lower bounds on the axion mass implied by the oscillation model.

AbstractIntranasal esketamine (Spravato™), the S-enantiomer of ketamine, targets the glutamatergic system via non-competitive antagonism of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, thereby providing a novel approach to traditional antidepressants that target modulation of the monoaminergic system. In conjunction with an oral antidepressant (OAD), intranasal esketamine is approved in the USA for use in adult patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Given its novel mechanism and rapid onset of action, convenient weekly or once every 2 weeks maintenance regimen, and the current paucity of approved pharmacotherapy options for TRD, esketamine nasal spray in conjunction with an OAD provides an important treatment option for this difficult-to-treat high-risk patient population. In pivotal clinical trials in adult patients with TRD, flexible-dose intranasal esketamine in conjunction with a newly initiated OAD provided rapid and sustained improvements in depression symptoms, and had a manageable tolerability and safety profile. Further long-term clinical experience is required to fully define the potential benefits and risks of esketamine therapy in combination with an OAD in TRD.

description: Though the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) was originally developed to model the ambient concentrations of pollutants, most subsequent applications focused on pollution emissions. Yet, previous research suggests that it is more likely that economic growth could eventually reduce the concentrations of local pollutants than emissions. We examine the role of income, convergence, and time related factors in explaining changes in PM2.5 pollution in a global panel of 158 countries between 1990 and 2010. We find that economic growth has positive but relatively small effects, time effects are also small but larger in wealthier and formerly centrally planned economies, and, for our main dataset, convergence effects are small and not statistically significant. There is no in-sample income turning point for regressions that include both the convergence variables and a set of control variables.

description: This paper examines economic challenges faced by Australia’s Direct Action abatement subsidy scheme. Introduced in 2014, the scheme operates by reverse auction, funding projects voluntarily proposed by the private sector. Because the government cannot know true project counterfactuals, the lowest auction bids are likely to often be non-additional “anyway” projects. The scheme is hence likely to exhibit a systematic skew toward low-quality abatement. The paper presents a model of the adverse selection problem and describes the early experience with Direct Action. A discussion of a way forward is also provided.

description: The Court of Justice of the European Union (the Court) is often hailed as a pioneer in integration through law. Existing scholarship on the Court’s judicial power overwhelmingly focuses on constitu-tionalisation and the horizontal policy dimension. As a result, the judicial techniques behind the Court’s policy-making and the ensuing implications for domestic policies remain largely understudied. The re-cent deconstitutionalisation of EU law begs the question as to whether the Court can steer national policies through its case-law without constitutionalising policy outcomes. The Article responds to this gap, by empirically investigating the legal techniques underpinning the Court’s policy-making in a de-constitutionalised manner and the ensuing implications for Member States’ policies. The analysis exam-ines the legal reasoning in all cases where the Court applies the provisions of Directive 2004/38 by anal-ogy, as an example of the deconstitutionalisation process, and traces the responses of all Member States to the Court’s jurisprudence. The findings illustrate that the creation of rights through the analo-gous application of Directive 2004/38 enables the Court to diplomatically balance competing interests and is successful in generating judicial Europeanisation in the domain of migration.

description: Stochastic Gradient Decent (SGD) is one of the core techniques behind the success of deep neural networks. The gradient provides information on the direction in which a function has the steepest rate of change. The main problem with basic SGD is to change by equal sized steps for all parameters, irrespective of gradient behavior. Hence, an efficient way of deep network optimization is to make adaptive step sizes for each parameter. Recently, several attempts have been made to improve gradient descent methods such as AdaGrad, AdaDelta, RMSProp and Adam. These methods rely on the square roots of exponential moving averages of squared past gradients. Thus, these methods do not take advantage of local change in gradients. In this paper, a novel optimizer is proposed based on the difference between the present and the immediate past gradient (i.e., diffGrad). In the proposed diffGrad optimization technique, the step size is adjusted for each parameter in such a way that it should have a larger step size for faster gradient changing parameters and a lower step size for lower gradient changing parameters. The convergence analysis is done using the regret bound approach of online learning framework. Rigorous analysis is made in this paper over three synthetic complex non-convex functions. The image categorization experiments are also conducted over the CIFAR10 and CIFAR100 datasets to observe the performance of diffGrad with respect to the state-of-the-art optimizers such as SGDM, AdaGrad, AdaDelta, RMSProp, AMSGrad, and Adam. The residual unit (ResNet) based Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) architecture is used in the experiments. The experiments show that diffGrad outperforms other optimizers. Also, we show that diffGrad performs uniformly well for training CNN using different activation functions. The source code is made publicly available at https://github.com/shivram1987/diffGrad.

description: Many service systems rely on verifiable identity-related information of their users. Manipulation and unwanted exposure of this privacy-relevant information, however, must at the same time be prevented and avoided. Peer-to-peer blockchain-based decentralization with a smart contract-based execution model and verifiable off-chain computations leveraging zero-knowledge proofs promise to provide the basis for next-generation, non-disclosing credential management solutions. In this paper, we propose a novel credential on-chaining system that ensures blockchain-based transparency while preserving pseudonymity. We present a general model compliant to the W3C verifiable credential recommendation and demonstrate how it can be applied to solve existing problems that require computational identity-related attribute verification. Our zkSNARKs-based reference implementation and evaluation show that, compared to related approaches based on, e.g., CL-signatures, our approach provides significant performance advantages and more flexible proof mechanisms, underpinning our vision of increasingly decentralized, transparent, and trustworthy service systems.

description: This issue explores the notion of elemental media in the Venetian context. Spanning from painting to cinema, and from photography to installations, the eleven contributions engage primarily with John Duram Peters’ notion of elemental media and with Richard Grusin’s theory of radical mediation. Together, these methodological perspectives foreground the possibility of a new framework to consider the interrelation between media and place, as well as between the material elements that constitute all media.

description: An isovector-scalar meson is incorporated self-consistently into the quark-meson coupling description of nuclear matter and its most prominent effects on the structure of neutron stars are investigated. The recent measurement of GW170817 is used to constrain the strength of the isovector-scalar channel. With the imminent measurements of the neutron star radii in the NICER mission it is particularly notable that the inclusion of the isovector-scalar force has a significant impact. Indeed, the effect of this interaction on the neutron star radii and masses is larger than the uncertainties introduced by variations in the parameters of symmetric nuclear matter at saturation, namely the density, binding energy per nucleon and the symmetry energy. In addition, since the analysis of GW170817 has provided constraints on the binary tidal deformability of merging neutron stars, the predictions for this parameter within the quark-meson coupling model are explored, as well as the moment of inertia and the quadrupole moment of slowly rotating neutron stars.
General Relativistic Electromagnetic Fields of a Slowly Rotating Magnetized Neutron Star. II. Solution of the Induction Equations

description: We have solved numerically the general relativistic induction equations in the interior background spacetime of a slowly rotating magnetized neutron star. The analytic form of these equations was discussed in a recent paper (Rezzolla et al 2001a), where corrections due both to the spacetime curvature and to the dragging of reference frames were shown to be present. Through a number of calculations we have investigated the evolution of the magnetic field with different rates of stellar rotation, different inclination angles between the magnetic moment and the rotation axis, as well as different values of the electrical conductivity. All of these calculations have been performed for a constant temperature relativistic polytropic star and make use of a consistent solution of the initial value problem which avoids the use of artificial analytic functions. Our results show that there exist general relativistic effects introduced by the rotation of the spacetime which tend to decrease the decay rate of the magnetic field. The rotation-induced corrections are however generally hidden by the high electrical conductivity of the neutron star matter and when realistic values for the electrical conductivity are considered, these corrections become negligible even for the fastest known pulsar.

description: We present the design, fabrication, and response of a polymer-based Laterally Amplified Chemo-Mechanical (LACM) humidity sensor based on mechanical leveraging and parametric amplification. The device consists of a sense cantilever asymmetrically patterned with a polymer and flanked by two stationary electrodes on the sides. When exposed to a humidity change, the polymer swells after absorbing the analyte and causes the central cantilever to bend laterally towards one side, causing a change in the measured capacitance. The device features an intrinsic gain due to parametric amplification resulting in an enhanced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). 11-fold magnification in sensor response was observed via voltage biasing of the side electrodes without the use of conventional electronic amplifiers. The sensor showed a repeatable and recoverable capacitance change of 11% when exposed to a change in relative humidity from 25-85%. The dynamic characterization of the device also revealed a response time ~1s and demonstrated a competitive response with respect to a commercially available reference chip.

description: It is well-known that a knot in a contact manifold $(M,C)$ transverse to a trivialized contact structure possesses the natural framing given by the first of the trivialization vectors along the knot. If the Euler class $e_C\in H^2(M)$ of $C$ is nonzero, then $C$ is nontrvivializable and the natural framing of transverse knots does not exist. We construct a new framing-type invariant of transverse knots called relative framing. It is defined for all tight $C$, all closed irreducible atoroidal $M$, and many other cases when $e_C\neq 0$ and the classical framing invariant is not defined. We show that the relative framing distinguishes many transverse knots that are isotopic as unframed knots. It also allows one to define the Bennequin invariant of a zero-homologous transverse knot in contact manifolds $(M,C)$ with $e_C\neq 0$. Our recent result is that the groups of Vassiliev-Goussarov invariants of transverse and of framed knots are canonically isomorphic, when $C$ is trivialized and transverse knots have the natural framing. We show that the same result is true whenever the relative framing is well-defined.
description: 13 pages, 5 figures We have added the Theorem saying that the groups of Vassiliev invariants of transverse and of framed knots are canonically isomorphic when the relative framing of transverse knots is well-defined. We have also added new examples where relative framing distinguishes transverse knots isotopic as ordinary knots
A calculation of the single scattering contribution to the differential cross-section for the elastic scattering of 25-100 MeV positive pions by deuterium

description: We have performed a numerical study of the single scattering contribution to the differential cross-section for the elastic scattering of 25-100 MeV positive pions by deuterium. In particular, we have examined effects due to the presence of the D-state component of the deuteron wave function, to internal motion of the target nucleons, and to uncertainties in the off-energy-shell pion-nucleon scattering amplitudes and the pion-nucleon phase shifts. Our results encourage further experimental and theoretical study of pion-nucleon and pion-deuteron scattering. They also encourage an experimental and theoretical study of π± - ³He elastic scattering as a means of investigating ³He wave function components.

description: We investigate the estimation technique called quantum state smoothing introduced by Guevara and Wiseman [Phys.~Rev.~Lett.~{\bf 115}, 180407 (2015)], which offers a valid quantum state estimate for a partially monitored system, conditioned on the observed record both prior and posterior to an estimation time. Partial monitoring by an observer implies that there may exist records unobserved by that observer. It was shown that, given only the observed record, the observer can better estimate the underlying true quantum states, by inferring the unobserved record and using quantum state smoothing, rather than the usual quantum filtering approach. However, the improvement in estimation fidelity, originally examined for a resonantly driven qubit coupled to two vacuum baths, was also shown to vary depending on the types of detection used for the qubit's fluorescence. In this work, we analyse this variation in a systematic way for the first time. We first define smoothing power using an average purity recovery and a relative average purity recovery, of smoothing over filtering. Then, we explore the power for various combinations of fluorescence detection for both observed and unobserved channels. We next propose a method to explain the variation of the smoothing power, based on multi-time correlation strength between fluorescence detection records. The method gives a prediction of smoothing power for different combinations, which is remarkably successful in comparison with numerically simulated qubit trajectories.

The Photophysics of the Carrier of Extended Red Emission
Creators: name: Smith, Tracy L.
name: Witt, Adolf N.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Interstellar dust contains a component which reveals its presence by emitting a broad, unstructured band of light in the 540 to 950 nm wavelength range, referred to as Extended Red Emission (ERE). The presence of interstellar dust and ultraviolet photons are two necessary conditions for ERE to occur. This is the basis for suggestions which attribute ERE to an interstellar dust component capable of photoluminescence. In this study, we have collected all published ERE observations with absolute-calibrated spectra for interstellar environments, where the density of ultraviolet photons can be estimated reliably. In each case, we determined the band-integrated ERE intensity, the wavelength of peak emission in the ERE band, and the efficiency with which absorbed ultraviolet photons are contributing to the ERE. The data show that radiation is not only driving the ERE, as expected for a photoluminescence process, but is modifying the ERE carrier as manifested by a systematic increase in the ERE band's peak wavelength and a general decrease in the photon conversion efficiency with increasing densities of the prevailing exciting radiation. The overall spectral characteristics of the ERE and the observed high quantum efficiency of the ERE process are currently best matched by the recently proposed silicon nanoparticle (SNP) model. Using the experimentally established fact that ionization of semiconductor nanoparticles quenches their photoluminescence, we proceeded to test the SNP model by developing a quantitative model for the excitation and ionization equilibrium of SNPs under interstellar conditions for a wide range of radiation field densities.

Topology of SmB$_6$ determined by dynamical mean field theory

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: Whether SmB6 is a topological insulator remains hotly debated. Our density functional theory plus dynamical mean field theory calculations are in excellent agreement with a large range of experiments, from the 4f5.5 intermediate valency to x-ray and photoemission spectra. Using the pole extended (PE) Hamiltonian, which fully captures the self-energy, we show that SmB6 is a strongly correlated topological insulator, albeit not a Kondo insulator. The PE Hamiltonian is proved to be topological (in)equivalent to the topological Hamiltonian for (non-)local self-energies. The topological surface states are analyzed, addressing conflicting interpretations of photoemission data.

description: We calculate the resistivity of 2D electron (hole) gas, taking into account the degeneracy and the thermal correction due to the combined Peltier and Seebeck effects. The resistivity is found to be universal function of temperature, expressed in units of $\frac{h}{e^{2}} (k_{F}l)^{-1}$. The giant parallel magnetiresistivity found to result from the spin and, if exists, valley splitting of the energy spectrum. Our analysis of compressibility and thermopower points to thermodynamic nature of metal-insulator transition in 2D systems.

description: For the last few years, the NASA Quantum Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (QuAIL) has been performing research to assess the potential impact of quantum computers on challenging computational problems relevant to future NASA missions. A key aspect of this research is devising methods to most effectively utilize emerging quantum computing hardware. Research questions include what experiments on early quantum hardware would give the most insight into the potential impact of quantum computing, the design of algorithms to explore on such hardware, and the development of tools to minimize the quantum resource requirements. We survey work relevant to these questions, with a particular emphasis on our recent work in quantum algorithms and applications, in elucidating mechanisms of quantum mechanics and their uses for quantum computational purposes, and in simulation, compilation, and physics-inspired classical algorithms. To our early application thrusts in planning and scheduling, fault diagnosis, and machine learning, we add thrusts related to robustness of communication networks and the simulation of many-body systems for material science and chemistry. We provide a brief update on quantum annealing work, but concentrate on gate-model quantum computing research advances within the last couple of years.

description: The forecast on price of agricultural futures is studied in this paper. We use the ARIMA model to estimate the price trends of agricultural futures, which can help the investors to optimize their investing plans. The soybean future contracts are taken as an example to simulate the forecast based on the auto-regression coefficient (p), differential times (d) and moving average coefficient (q). The results show that ARIMA model is better to simulate and forecast the trend of closing prices of soybean futures contract, and it is applicable to forecasting the price of agricultural futures.

description: We use effective field theory techniques to examine the quantum corrections to the gravitational metrics of charged particles, with and without spin. In momentum space the masslessness of the photon implies the presence of nonanalytic pieces $\sim \sqrt{-q^2},q^2\log -q^2$ etc. in the form factors of the energy-momentum tensor. We show how the former reproduces the classical non-linear terms of the Reissner-Nordström and Kerr-Newman metrics while the latter can be interpreted as quantum corrections to these metrics, of order $Gα\hbar/mr^3$

Lightweight Mediated Semi-Quantum Key Distribution Protocol with a Dishonest Third Party based on Bell States

description: The mediated semi-quantum key distribution (MSQKD) protocol is an important research issue that lets two classical participants share secret keys securely between each other with the help of a third party (TP). However, in the existing MSQKD protocols, there are two improvable issues, namely (1) the classical participants must be equipped with expensive detectors to avoid Trojan horse attacks and (2) the trustworthiness level of TP must be honest. To the best of our knowledge, none of the existing MSQKD protocols can resolve both these issues. Therefore, this study takes Bell states as the quantum resource to propose a MSQKD protocol, in which the classical participants do not need a Trojan horse detector and the TP is dishonest. Furthermore, the proposed protocol is shown to be secure against well-known attacks and the classical participants only need two quantum capabilities. Therefore, in comparison to the existing MSQKD protocols, the proposed protocol is better practical.
