description: Food security, or consistent access to food, is low among Black children under 18 years of age in Durham County, North Carolina. In addition, racial disparities between Black and White children as it relates to food insecurity continue to persist. Food insecurity in children has been associated with negative outcomes such as decreased diet quality, chronic disease, and negative effects on the social and educational aspects of children’s lives.

An evidenced-based fruit and vegetable prescription program has been shown to improve diet quality among children in food insecure households and therefore lessen the negative health impacts of food insecurity. The program is being proposed in collaboration with diverse stakeholders in an effort to improve food security among Black children in Durham County. The program will utilize already in place community assets, such as pediatricians, community clinics, and local farmer’s markets, to benefit the
prioritized children and the community at large.

description: Working from a model of Gaussian pixel noise, we present and unify over twenty-five years of developments in the statistical analysis of the photon transfer conversion gain measurement. We then study a two-sample estimator of the conversion gain that accounts for the general case of non-negligible dark noise. The moments of this estimator are ill-defined (their integral representations diverge) and so we propose a method for assigning pseudomoments, which are shown to agree with actual sample moments under mild conditions. A definition of optimal sample size pairs for this two-sample estimator is proposed and used to find approximate optimal sample size pairs that allow experimenters to achieve a predetermined measurement uncertainty with as little data as possible. The conditions under which these approximations hold are also discussed. Design and control of experiment procedures are developed and used to optimally estimate a per-pixel conversion gain map of a real image sensor. Experimental results show excellent agreement with theoretical predictions and are backed up with Monte Carlo simulation. The per-pixel conversion gain estimates are then applied in a demonstration of per-pixel read noise estimation of the same image sensor. The results of this work open the door to a comprehensive pixel-level adaptation of the photon transfer method.

description: In this paper we discuss the development of new semiconductor materials and approaches to overcome the fundamental limitations of well established (Al,In)GaAs/InP and InGaAsP/InP infrared-emitting lasers. We consider three approaches; dilute-nitride InGaAsN-based structures; InAs-based quantum dot/dash structures and the most recently emerging dilute-bismide (GaAsBi, InGaAsBi), all of which may be grown on either GaAs or InP substrates. These material systems provide a range of possibilities for band engineering and strain control, thereby giving new routes to improve device efficiency, overcoming existing limitations of device performance and to develop range of new cost-efficient devices with improved characteristics. However, all of these approaches have common difficulties related to establishing optimised growth conditions to produce high quality material for device fabrication. Particularly, in this paper we compare and contrast the effects of inhomogeneous carrier distribution in these systems and discuss the influence of this on the physical properties of lasers developed using these approaches.The authors dedicate this paper to the memory of Professor Naci Balkan (Essex) and Professor Jeff Hosea (Surrey) both of whom made significant contributions to the development of new semiconductor materials including the dilute nitrides and bismides as discussed in the paper. We are also pleased to acknowledge the many collaborators who have contributed to the development of the materials and devices considered in this work, including; Tyndall National Institute (Ireland), Philipps-Universität Marburg (Germany), University of Sheffield (UK), Universität Würzburg (Germany), Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd (Japan), Infineon Technologies AG (Germany) and the Center for Physical Sciences and Technology (Lithuania).

description: Il contributo si apre con un’ampia sintesi storiografica sul rapporto centro-periferia nello Stato della Chiesa; sulle dinamiche dello “State building” pontificio in età moderna; sul controllo politico, economico e amministrativo delle élite locali sul governo e le risorse delle proprie città e comunità, nel confronto dialettico con il potere centrale e con il potere baronale, dove esso ancora domina. Il riformismo dei pontefici dello scorcio finale dell’età moderna e la ‘rottura’ rivoluzionaria e napoleonica forniscono lo spunto per aprire un focus sulla situazione della proprietà agraria a Canale Monterano e sui rapporti politici ed economici tra la comunità e il potere baronale degli Altieri.

The contribution opens with a broad historiographical synthesis about the center-periphery relationship in the State of the Church; about the dynamics of pontifical “State-Building” in the modern age; about the political, economic and administrative control of local elites over the government and resources of their cities and communities, in the dialectical comparison with the central power and with the baronial power, where it still dominates. The reformism of the pontiffs at the end of the modern age and the revolutionary and Napoleonic ‘rupture’ provide the opportunity to open a focus on the situation of the agricultural property in Canale Monterano and on the political and economic relations between the community and the baronial power of the Altieri.

description: People suffering from Alzheimer's disease (AD) and their caregivers seek different approaches to cope with memory loss. Although AD patients want to live independently, they often need help from caregivers. In this situation, caregivers may attach notes on every single object or take out the contents of a drawer to make them visible before leaving the patient alone at home. This study reports preliminary results on an Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) real-time system, achieved through the Internet of Things (IoT) and Augmented Reality (AR) concepts, aimed at helping people suffering from AD. The system has two main sections: the smartphone or windows application allows caregivers to monitor patients' status at home and be notified if patients are at risk. The second part allows patients to use smart glasses to recognize QR codes in the environment and receive information related to tags in the form of audio, text, or three-dimensional image. This work presents preliminary results and investigates the possibility of implementing such a system.

description: Density correlations unambiguously reveal the quantum nature of matter. Here, we study correlations between measurements of density in cold-atom clouds at different times at one position, and also at two separated positions. We take into account the effects of finite-size and -duration measurements made by light beams passing through the atom cloud. We specialise to the case of Bose gases in harmonic traps above critical temperature, for weakly-perturbative measurements. For overlapping measurement regions, shot-noise correlations revive after a trap oscillation period. For non-overlapping regions, bosonic correlations dominate at long times, and propagate at finite speeds. Finally, we give a realistic measurement protocol for performing such experiments.

description: Central venous catheters (CVC) are commonly inserted into the large veins of the neck, e.g. the internal jugular vein (IJV). CVC insertion may cause serious complications like misplacement into an artery or perforation of cervical vessels. Placing a CVC under sonographic guidance is an appropriate method to reduce such adverse events, if anatomical landmarks like venous and arterial vessels can be detected reliably. This task shall be solved by registration of patient individual images vs. an anatomically labelled reference image. In this work, a linear, affine transformation is performed on cervical sonograms, followed by a non-linear transformation to achieve a more precise registration. Voxelmorph (VM), a learning-based library for deformable image registration using a convolutional neural network (CNN) with U-Net structure was used for non-linear transformation. The impact of principal component analysis (PCA)-based pre-denoising of patient individual images, as well as the impact of modified net structures with differing complexities on registration results were examined visually and quantitatively, the latter using metrics for deformation and image similarity. Using the PCA-approximated cervical sonograms resulted in decreased mean deformation lengths between 18% and 66% compared to their original image counterparts, depending on net structure. In addition, reducing the number of convolutional layers led to improved image similarity with PCA images, while worsening in original images. Despite a large reduction of network parameters, no overall decrease in registration quality was observed, leading to the conclusion that the original net structure is oversized for the task at hand.

description: We calculate the cross section for optical absorption of planar 2D Majorana nanowires. Light is described in the dipole approximation. We discuss the signatures on the cross section of a near-zero-energy mode. A low energy peak for transverse polarization, absent in longitudinal one, reveals the presence of the Majorana-like state. This peak is relatively robust against thermal smearing of the level occupations. We consider the influence of optical masks hiding parts of the nanowire from the light.

description: Die derzeitige landwirtschaftliche Produktion ist in der Lage, große Mengen an Nahrungsmitteln zu liefern, hängt aber von energieintensiven Düngemitteln und Pestiziden ab. Dies wirkt sich auf das Klima, die Bodengesundheit und die Widerstandsfähigkeit der Betriebe aus. Unsere "Resilienzstrategie für die hessische Landwirtschaft" baut auf bestehenden Strategien für den Ackerbau und den ökologischen Landbau auf, verwendet aber einen komplexen strategischen Ansatz, der auf den Praktiken des ökologischen Landbaus basiert. Die "treibende Kraft" der Resilienzstrategie sind Leguminosen, die Humus aufbauen, Kohlenstoff in den Boden bringen und Stickstoff binden. Eine Ausweitung ihres Anbaus führt zu einer verbesserten Bodengesundheit und -struktur. Wenn die Böden Wasser besser speichern können, verringert sich das Dürrerisiko. Darüber hinaus spielen Biogasanlagen eine Schlüsselrolle für die angepasste Fruchtfolge (und die Tierhaltung) und werden in dem Modell zu lokalen Düngemittel- und Energiedrehscheiben. In diesem Papier werden mögliche Auswirkungen solcher strategischen Anpassungen vorgestellt. Die modellbasierten Ergebnisse sollen die Diskussion anregen: Könnte dieser Ansatz die Resilienz der Landwirtschaft langfristig stärken?

description: Ethereum is a permissionless blockchain ecosystem that supports execution of smart contracts, the key enablers of decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible tokens (NFT). However, the expressiveness of Ethereum smart contracts is a double-edged sword: while it enables blockchain programmability, it also introduces security vulnerabilities, i.e., the exploitable discrepancies between expected and actual behaviors of the contract code. To address these discrepancies and increase the vulnerability coverage, we propose a new smart contract security testing approach called transaction encapsulation. The core idea lies in the local execution of transactions on a fully-synchronized yet isolated Ethereum node, which creates a preview of outcomes of transaction sequences on the current state of blockchain. This approach poses a critical technical challenge -- the well-known time-of-check/time-of-use (TOCTOU) problem, i.e., the assurance that the final transactions will exhibit the same execution paths as the encapsulated test transactions. In this work, we determine the exact conditions for guaranteed execution path replicability of the tested transactions, and implement a transaction testing tool, TxT, which reveals the actual outcomes of Ethereum transactions. To ensure the correctness of testing, TxT deterministically verifies whether a given sequence of transactions ensues an identical execution path on the current state of blockchain. We analyze over 1.3 billion Ethereum transactions and determine that 96.5% of them can be verified by TxT. We further show that TxT successfully reveals the suspicious behaviors associated with 31 out of 37 vulnerabilities (83.8% coverage) in the smart contract weakness classification (SWC) registry. In comparison, the vulnerability coverage of all the existing defense approaches combined only reaches 40.5%.

description: Economic stability is uniquely linked to an individual’s personal health. Those who experience economic instability have increased incidences of adverse short- and long-term health outcomes. Individuals of the BIPOC community (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) are disproportionately burdened by economic instability and experience related health disparities and inequities in Durham County, NC. Subsidized employment policies have been shown to alleviate this burden and instill meaningful and effective change by creating opportunities for increased financial stability. Coupled with a reimbursement waiver for fruit and vegetable consumption provided by SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), a comprehensive and equitable policy and program solution has been identified. With a multitude of federal grants available, costs to Durham County will remain low for this solution. A stakeholder engagement plan has been devised to garner widespread support and participation. To best measure the success and efficacy of this solution, an evaluation and accountability plan has been created with measurable and attainable objectives.

Overdamped Alfven waves due to ion-neutral collisions in the solar chromosphere

description: Alfvenic waves are ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere and their dissipation may play an important role in atmospheric heating. In the partially ionized solar chromosphere, collisions between ions and neutrals are an efficient dissipative mechanism for Alfven waves with frequencies near the ion-neutral collision frequency. The collision frequency is proportional to the ion-neutral collision cross section for momentum transfer. Here, we investigate Alfven wave damping as a function of height in a simplified chromospheric model and compare the results for two sets of collision cross sections, namely those of the classic hard-sphere model and those based on recent quantum-mechanical computations. We find important differences between the results for the two sets of cross sections. There is a critical interval of wavelengths for which impulsively excited Alfven waves are overdamped as a result of the strong ion-neutral dissipation. The critical wavelengths are in the range from 1 km to 50 km for the hard-sphere cross sections, and from 1 m to 1 km for the quantum-mechanical cross sections. Equivalently, for periodically driven Alfven waves there is an optimal frequency for which the damping is most effective. The optimal frequency varies from 1 Hz to 10^2 Hz for the hard-sphere cross sections, and from 10^2 Hz to 10^4 Hz for the quantum-mechanical cross sections. Future observations at sufficiently high spatial or temporal resolution may show the importance of high-frequency Alfven waves for chromospheric heating. For instance, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) may be able to detect the critical wavelengths and optimal frequencies and so to test the effective collision cross section in the chromospheric plasma.

Subsidized employment policies have been shown to alleviate this burden and instill meaningful and effective change by creating opportunities for increased financial stability. Coupled with a reimbursement waiver for fruit and vegetable consumption provided by SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), a comprehensive and equitable policy and program solution has been identified. With a multitude of federal grants available, costs to Durham County will remain low for this solution. A stakeholder engagement plan has been devised to garner widespread support and participation. To best measure the success and efficacy of this solution, an evaluation and accountability plan has been created with measurable and attainable objectives.

REDUCING THE PREVALENCE AND IMPACT OF POVERTY AMONG NON-HISPANIC BLACK ADULTS 18+ LIVING 200% OR MORE BELOW THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE IN DURHAM COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA

description: Within Durham County, non-Hispanic Black adults are the most common racial/ethnic group
living at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Line (FPL) and face more economic instability,
negatively affecting their overall health. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a
federal government program that lessens the severity of poverty, a key factor of economic instability.
SNAP lifted nearly 300, 000 North Carolinians out of poverty in 201. However, North Carolina has low
SNAP participation rates with nearly one in five individuals in the "SNAP gap," being eligible for
SNAP benefits but not receiving them. To increase SNAP participation and decrease food insecurity
and poverty, Durham County could implement a local program that serves high-need and disinvested
communities. This Durham specific program would increase SNAP enrollment and consist of four key
components: community engagement, outreach, application assistance, and education resources.
Moiré patterns and inversion boundaries in graphene/hexagonal boron nitride bilayers

description: In this paper a systematic examination of graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (g/hBN) bilayers is presented, through a recently developed two-dimensional phase field crystal model that incorporates out-of-plane deformations. The system parameters are determined by closely matching the stacking energies and heights of graphene/hBN bilayers to those obtained from existing quantum-mechanical density functional theory calculations. Out-of-plane deformations are shown to reduce the energies of inversion domain boundaries in hBN, and the coupling between graphene and hBN layers leads to a bilayer defect configuration consisting of an inversion boundary in hBN and a domain wall in graphene. Simulations of twisted bilayers reveal the structure, energy, and elastic properties of the corresponding Moiré patterns, and show a crossover, as the misorientation angle between the layers increases, from a well-defined hexagonal network of domain boundaries and junctions to smeared-out patterns. The transition occurs when the thickness of domain walls approaches the size of the Moiré patterns, and coincides with the peaks in the average von Mises and volumetric stresses of the bilayer.

description: We derive a novel and rigorous correction to the classical Reynolds lubrication approximation for fluids with viscosity depending upon the pressure. Our analysis shows that the pressure dependence of viscosity leads to additional nonlinear terms related to the shear-rate and arising from a non negligible cross-film pressure. We present a numerical comparison between the classical Reynolds equation and our modified equation and conclude that the modified equation leads to the prediction of higher pressures and viscosities in the flow domain.
