The Grad-Shafranov Reconstruction of Toroidal Magnetic Flux Ropes: Method Development and Benchmark Studies

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We develop an approach of Grad-Shafranov (GS) reconstruction for toroidal structures in space plasmas, based on in-situ spacecraft measurements. The underlying theory is the GS equation that describes two-dimensional magnetohydrostatic equilibrium as widely applied in fusion plasmas. The geometry is such that the arbitrary cross section of the torus has rotational symmetry about the rotation axis $Z$, with a major radius $r_0$. The magnetic field configuration is thus determined by a scalar flux function $Ψ$ and a functional $F$ that is a single-variable function of $Ψ$. The algorithm is implemented through a two-step approach: i) a trial-and-error process by minimizing the residue of the functional $F(Ψ)$ to determine an optimal $Z$ axis orientation, and ii) for the chosen $Z$, a $χ^2$ minimization process resulting in the range of $r_0$. Benchmark studies of known analytic solutions to the toroidal GS equation with noise additions are presented to illustrate the two-step procedures and to demonstrate the performance of the numerical GS solver, separately. For the cases presented, the errors in $Z$ and $r_0$ are 9$^\circ$ and 22\%, respectively, and the relative percent error in the numerical GS solutions is less than 10\%. We also make public the computer codes for these implementations and benchmark studies.

description: The objectives of this study on the forestry and logging workforce are to: 1) Analyze causes of injuries/fatalities to inform future intervention studies focused on risk mitigation, 2) determine whether there are any trends or associations between work-related risk factors and workplace injuries/fatalities over a 16-year period (2003–2019), and 3) identify knowledge gaps related to injuries and fatalities for future studies to address. Data on fatalities, injuries, and illnesses of the forestry and logging workforce from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics were analyzed. Correlation analysis (p < .05) was conducted to assess the relationship between causes of forestry and logging workforce fatalities by cause of fatality in the United States. Injury and fatality rates were calculated for each year (fatalities: 2003–2018; injuries: 2005–2019) and time span-specific incidence rates were calculated by cause. Contact with objects and equipment was the primary cause of injuries and fatalities in the forestry and logging workforce during the study period. Transportation-related incidents ranked second as the cause of fatalities, while the category of falls, slips, and trips was the second leading cause of injuries. Gaps in occupational health and safety identified by this study should be collaboratively addressed by researchers and the forestry industry.

description: We consider a semilinear Robin problem driven by the Laplacian plus an indefinite and unbounded potential. The reaction term is a Carathéodory function which is resonant with respect to any nonprincipal eigenvalue both at $\pm \infty$ and 0. Using a variant of the reduction method, we show that the problem has at least two nontrivial smooth solutions.

description: We state a quantum version of Bayes's rule for statistical inference and give a simple general derivation within the framework of generalized measurements. The rule can be applied to measurements on N copies of a system if the initial state of the N copies is exchangeable. As an illustration, we apply the rule to N qubits. Finally, we show that quantum state estimates derived via the principle of maximum entropy are fundamentally different from those obtained via the quantum Bayes rule.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Mixed-Methods Assessment of Farmworkers’ Perceptions of Workplace Compliance with Worker Protection Standards and Implications for Risk Perceptions and Protective Behaviors

description: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s Worker Protection Standards is the primary set of legislation aimed at protecting farmworkers from occupational pesticide exposure in the United States. Previous studies suggest that worker adoption of Pesticide Protective Behaviors (PPBs) promoted by WPS is associated with lower urinary pesticide concentrations. However, adoption of PPBs is often outside of the control of individual farmworkers and dependent on workplace factors such as employer provisioning of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and access to trainings/resources. We conducted a mixed-method study including urinary pesticide biomonitoring, surveys, and interviews with 62 Latinx farmworkers in southwestern Idaho from April to July 2022. We integrated findings across the various data sources to identify emergent themes relating to farmworkers’ perceptions of workplace compliance with WPS and potential implications for their pesticide risk perceptions, protective behaviors, and urinary pesticide concentrations. Participants reported some indications of poor workplace compliance with WPS regulations, notably inconsistent access to clean handwashing stations and notification of pesticide applications. Some farmworkers, particularly pesticide applicators, viewed herbicides to be categorically safer than other classes of pesticides such as insecticides; these perceptions appeared to influence protective behaviors, such as the relatively low use of PPE while applying herbicides. These findings are underscored by the higher concentrations of biomarkers of herbicides, but not insecticides, among pesticide applicators compared with non-applicators (e.g. median 2,4-D concentrations = 1.40 µg/L among applicators and 0.69 µg/L among non-applicators). Participants further reported concerns regarding the inadequacy of pesticide safety training, pesticide drift, and the lack of communication regarding pesticide applications on and near fields where they are working. Participants’ perceptions that herbicides are categorically safer than other pesticide classes is in direct conflict with WPS training, raising concerns about discrepancies between WPS instruction and other on-the-job training, as well as the inadequate provisioning of PPE during the application of certain pesticides. Our findings also suggest that current WPS regulations may not sufficiently address farmworkers’ concerns, particularly in regard to pesticide drift.

description: Die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Forschenden und Bürger*innen in Form von Citizen Science erfreut sich wachsender Beliebtheit in den digitalen Geisteswissenschaften. Um Teilnehmende für geisteswissenschaftliche Forschungsprojekte zu gewinnen, setzen Forschende teilweise auf Citizen Science-Projektplattformen, wie Bürger schaffen Wissen, Österreich forscht oder Zooniverse. Auch spezialisierte Plattformen, die nur ein ganz bestimmtes Thema (z.B. Linguistik oder Kunstgeschichte) oder eine Methode (z.B. Transkription oder Übersetzung) abdecken, sind in der geisteswissenschaftlichen Citizen Science-Landschaft zu finden. Daher wird in diesem Beitrag untersucht, inwieweit diese Plattformen die Teilnehmenden (sowie die Forschenden) dabei unterstützen, eine Gemeinschaft zu bilden und inwieweit diese Aufgabe den Projekten selbst überlassen wird. Erste Zwischenergebnisse machen deutlich, dass Community Building von Teilnehmenden in Projekten, die auf Citizen Science-Projektplattformen geführt werden, in erster Linie auf Projektebene selbst (und nur teilweise über diese Plattformen) stattfindet. Daher bleibt offen, ob ein Community Building von Teilnehmenden in Citizen Science-Projekten auch über die Projektgrenzen hinaus, einen Mehrwert bieten könnte.

description: The nearest stellar system consists of the stars Proxima, alpha Centauri A and B and at least one planet Proxima b. The habitability of Proxima b and any other planets are likely to be significantly influenced by the orbital evolution of the system. To study the dynamical evolution of the system, we simulate the motions of Proxima and alpha Centauri A and B due to the perturbations from the Galactic tide and stellar encounters in a Monte Carlo fashion. From 100 clones, we find that 74% orbits of Proxima Centauri are bound to alpha Centauri A and B while 17% and 9% orbits become unbound in the simulations over the past and future 5 Gyr. If the system migrated outward in the Milky Way to its current location, more than 50% of clones could become unstable in backward simulations. The ratio of unstable clones increases with the simulation time scale and encounter rate. This provides some evidence for a capture scenario for the formation of the current triple system. Despite large uncertainties, the metallicity difference between Proxima and alpha Centauri A and B is also suggestive of their different origin. Nonetheless, further improvements in the available data and models will be necessary for a reliable assessment of the history of the Proxima-alpha Centauri system and its impact on the habitability of Proxima b.

description: We study the numerical propagation of waves through future null infinity in a conformally compactified spacetime. We introduce an artificial cosmological constant, which allows us some control over the causal structure near null infinity. We exploit this freedom to ensure that all light cones are tilted outward in a region near null infinity, which allows us to impose excision-style boundary conditions in our finite difference code. In this preliminary study we consider electromagnetic waves propagating in a static, conformally compactified spacetime.

description: Antiferromagnetic materials, whose time-reversal symmetry is broken, can be classified into the Z2 topology if they respect some specific symmetry. Since the theoretical proposal, however, no materials have been found to host the antiferromagnetic topological (AFT) phase to date. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate that the topological Kondo insulator SmB6 can be an AFT system when pressurized to undergo an antiferromagnetic phase transition. In addition to propose the possible candidate for an AFT material, in this work we also illustrate the anomalous topological surface states of the AFT phase which has not been discussed before. Originating from the interplay between the topological properties and the antiferromagnetic surface magnetization, the topological surface states of the AFT phase behave differently as compared with those of a topological insulator. Besides, the AFT insulators are also found promising in the generation of tunable spin currents, which is an important application in spintronics.

description: An evaluation of the application of dysprosium oxide as a tracer coating to surface label sedimentary particles is made. Physical and chemical properties of the labeled sand are studied. Effective diameters and settling properties of the tracer sand are compared with unlabeled sand. A total of 8.51 kg of labeled sand was placed on the beach at Camp Pendleton. Dispersal patterns obtained 1 and 4 hours after tracer injection indicate a general down current mean tracer migration rate of 0.21 cm/sec (0.42ft/sec). An absolute detection limit of 4 or 5 parts per 100,000 and a real detection limit, after field dilution, of 1 part per 10,000 was obtained. Discussion of the future application of the stable isotope method is presented.

description: For a digital quantum simulator (DQS) imitating a target system, we ask the following question: Under what conditions is the simulator dynamics similar to that of the target in the presence of coupling to a bath? In this paper, we derive conditions for close simulation for three different physical regimes, replacing previous heuristic arguments on the subject with rigorous statements. In fact, we find that the conventional wisdom that the simulation cycle time should always be short for good simulation need not always hold up. Numerical simulations of two specific examples strengthen the evidence for our analysis, and go beyond to explore broader regimes.

Energy and Angular Momentum Deposition During Common Envelope Evolution

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: I consider three processes which enhance mass loss rate from a common envelope of a giant star with a main sequence or a white dwarf companion spiraling-in inside its envelope. I consider deposition of orbital energy and orbital angular momentum to the giant's envelope, and in more detail the formation of jets by an accreting companion and their propagation in the envelope. I find that in many cases the deposition of orbital angular momentum to the envelope may be more important to the mass loss process than the deposition of orbital energy. Jets blown by an accreting companion, in particular a white dwarf, orbiting inside the outer regions of the giant's envelope may also dominate over orbital energy deposition at early stage of the common envelope evolution. These imply that studies which ignore the deposition of angular momentum to the envelope and the effects of the accreting companion may reach wrong conclusions.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit evaluiert verschiedene Tools zur Erkennung visueller Elemente - hier explizit von Überschriften - in einer Zeitung aus der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus. Die quantitative Untersuchung visueller Elemente in historischen Zeitungen eröffnet der Geschichtswissenschaft einen neuen Zugang zur Erforschung der Wirkungsweise von Medien. Für die Auswertung werden Open-Source-Tools der DH-Community getestet, die für einen solchen Anwendungsfall vorgesehen sind. Für eine adäquate Evaluation sind neben der Vorhersagegenauigkeit der Machine Learning Programme Kriterien wie Umfang der Dokumentation, Schwierigkeit der Installation und Laufzeit von entscheidender Bedeutung. Dies hat seinen Grund in den mangelnden Hardwareressourcen an kultur- und geisteswissenschaftlich orientierten Instituten und den fehlenden Informatikkompetenzen der Forscher:innen. Gibbs und Owens haben bereits darauf hingewiesen, dass viele Tools aus der DH-Community nicht den Bedürfnissen der Zielgruppe entsprechen (2012). Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der LayoutParser (Shen et al., 2021) ein geeignetes Werkzeug ist, um Überschriften und potenziell andere visuelle Elemente in einer NS-Zeitung zu erkennen.

description: Using pesticides in the An Giang province is widespread. However, studies on the health effect of organophosphate pesticide have not been updated within the past 12 years. This study aimed to assess exposure to organophosphate pesticides and their effects on sperm quality among farmers in the An Giang Province, Mekong Delta, Vietnam. During the winter – spring crop season of December 2021 to February 2022, a cross-sectional study was conducted on farmers aged 18 to 60 years-old based on seven communes’ health checkup programs. The pesticide spray group included farmers who had sprayed pesticides in the previous week and had a history of working in agriculture for more than 2 years. The control group was defined as those who lived in the same community, had not worked in agriculture, and had never sprayed pesticides. Demographic characteristics and blood, urine, and semen samples were collected and analyzed. Data for 184 eligible participants were analyzed, including 116 farmers in the pesticide spray group and 68 non-farmers in the control group. Pesticide spray contributed to a decrease in the sperm quality index of 6.253 units (95% CI, 4.472–8.749). Increasing each pseudocholinesterase (PChE) unit (kIU/L) was associated with an increase of 1.181 units in the sperm quality index (95% CI, 0.757–0.947). Preventive methods for organophosphate pesticide exposure, such as administrative controls, engineering controls, substitution, and personal protective equipment should be applied to control health risks. In the An Giang setting, personal protective equipment is feasible, but most types of equipment are not used. The immediate priority is to determine the cause of personal protective equipment not being used and to find solutions to encourage people to use them.

description: Mit der Veröffentlichung von ChatGPT durch das US-amerikanische Unternehmen OpanAi im vergangenen Jahr erhielt der durch die Coronakrise ausgelöste Digitalisierungsschub in der Hochschullehre einen neuen Impuls. Als Reaktion darauf wurde an der Universität des Saarlandes die Initiative "KI in der Lehre" ins Leben gerufen, die Teil des seit 2021 von der Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre geförderten Projekts Digital Teaching Plug-in (DaTa-Pin) bildet. Herausforderungen und Möglichkeiten der Nutzung von KI sollen in innovativen Lehr- und Lernangeboten erprobt und ausgelotet, im Idealfall in Best-Practice-Ansätze überführt werden. Die Besonderheit des von der Fachrichtung Musikwissenschaft betreuten Teilprojekts "KI und Musik" bildet sein multimodaler Ansatz. Im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen geisteswissenschaftlichen Fächern sind dort KI-Anwendungen nicht auf Schrift oder Texte beschränkt, sondern beziehen Ton und Musik mit ein. In diesem Beitrag werden das auf zwei Semester angelegte Teilprojekt und erste Ergebnisse vorgestellt.

description: Atomic-scale impurity spins, also called color centers, in an otherwise spin-free diamond host lattice have proven to be versatile tools for applications in solid-state-based quantum technologies ranging from quantum information processing (QIP) to quantum-enhanced sensing and metrology. Due to its wide band gap, diamond can host hundreds of different color centers. However, their suitability for QIP or sensing applications has only been tested for a handful of these, with the nitrogen vacancy (NV) strongly dominating this field of research. Due to its limited optical properties, the success of the NV for QIP applications however strongly depends on the development of efficient photonic interfaces. In the past years the negatively charged silicon vacancy (SiV) center received significant attention due to its highly favourable spectral properties such as narrow zero phonon line transitions and weak phonon sidebands. We here review recent work investigating the SiV centre's orbital and electron spin coherence properties as well as techniques to coherently control its quantum state using microwave as well as optical fields and we outline potential future experimental directions to improve the SiV's coherence time scale and to develop it into a valuable tool for QIP applications.

description: A model of discrete dynamics of entanglement of bipartite quantum state is considered. It involves a global unitary dynamics of the system and periodic actions of local bistochastic or decaying channel. For initially pure states the decay of entanglement is accompanied with an increase of von Neumann entropy of the system. We observe and discuss revivals of entanglement due to unitary interaction of both subsystems. For some mixed states having different marginal entropies of both subsystems (one of them larger than the global entropy and the other one one smaller) we find an asymmetry in speed of entanglement decay. The entanglement of these states decreases faster, if the depolarizing channel acts on the "classical" subsystem, characterized by smaller marginal entropy.

description: This study examined factors related to perceived health risks in confined spaces (PCSHR) and their correlation with the mental workload among farmers managing agricultural wells in northern Thailand. A cross-sectional, multi-stage sample of 356 farmers was selected from four rural districts’ agricultural areas. Data were collected through interviews conducted from August to December 2022, using a self-administered structured questionnaire. The five-part questionnaire gathered demographic data, information on experiences and operations in agricultural wells, knowledge of confined spaces, PCSHR, and the six-dimension NASA Task Load Index (TLX) mental workload. Linear regression and multi-variable analyses were used to investigate factors associated with PCSHR, while Pearson correlations tested the association between PCSHR and mental workload variables. Most farmers were male (92.4%), worked in wells to install pumping systems (81.7%) and maintain equipment (73.3%), averaging 3.80 times per year, with an average duration of 25.81 minutes. Physical symptoms reported included difficulty breathing (72.8%), feeling swelteringly hot (55.9%), and sweating excessively (27.8%), as well as accidents such as being struck by falling soil or objects (20.2%), and falling into the well while climbing down (14.9%). Farmers’ perceived risk scores were high when working while physically exhausted or unprepared and when assisting an unconscious worker without knowing the gas concentration. In addition, the maximal mental workload scores were mental demand and effort subscale. Factors significantly associated with PCSHR (adj.R2 = 60.6%, p < .05) encompassed education higher than lower secondary level, current alcohol consumption, smaller well width, assisted operations, number of physical symptoms experienced, absence of environmental accidents, and confined space knowledge, while increased PCSHR was positively associated with mental workload (Overall r = 0.711, p < .01). Comprehensive education about potential hazards can improve farmers’ risk perception, potentially reducing mental workload and preventing fatal accidents. Field studies are recommended to develop community-specific work protocols and accurate measuring instruments suitable for rural settings are needed.
The Value of Data: Towards a Framework to Redistribute It
Creators: name: Savona, Maria
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020
Subjects: Data Value
Data Governance

description: This note attempts a systematisation of different pieces of literature that underpin the recent
 policy and academic debate on the value of data. It mainly poses foundational questions
 around the definition, economic nature and measurement of data value, and discusses the
 opportunity to redistribute it. It then articulates a framework to compare ways of
 implementing redistribution, distinguishing between data as capital, data as labour or data as
 an intellectual property. Each of these raises challenges, revolving around the notions of data
 property and data rights, that are also briefly discussed. The note concludes by indicating
 areas for policy considerations and a research agenda to shape the future structure of data
 governance more at large.

Effective Stochastic Generator with Site-dependent Interactions

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: It is known that the stochastic generators of effective processes associated with the unconditioned dynamics of rare events might consist of non-local interactions; however, it can be shown that there are special cases for which these generators can include local interactions. In this paper we investigate this possibility by considering systems of classical particles moving on a one-dimensional lattice with open boundaries. The particles might have hard-core interactions similar to the particles in an exclusion process or there can be arbitrary many particles at single site as in a zero-range process. Assuming that the interactions in the original process are local and site-independent, we will show that under certain constraints on the microscopic reaction rules, the stochastic generator of unconditioned process can be local but site-dependent. As two examples, the asymmetric zero-temperature Glauber model and the A-model with diffusion are presented and studied under the above mentioned constraints.

General Relativistic Effects of Gravity in Quantum Mechanics -- A Case of Ultra-Relativistic, Spin 1/2 Particles --

description: We present a general relativistic framework for studying gravitational effects in quantum mechanical phenomena. We concentrate our attention on the case of ultra-relativistic, spin-1/2 particles propagating in Kerr spacetime. The two-component Weyl equation with general relativistic corrections is obtained in the case of a slowly rotating, weak gravitational field. Our approach is also applied to neutrino oscillations in the presence of a gravitational field. The relative phase of two different mass eigenstates is calculated in radial propagation, and the result is compared with those of previous works.

Low temperature electroweak phase transition in the Standard Model with hidden scale invariance

description: We discuss a cosmological phase transition within the Standard Model which incorporates spontaneously broken scale invariance as a low-energy theory. In addition to the Standard Model fields, the minimal model involves a light dilaton, which acquires a large vacuum expectation value (VEV) through the mechanism of dimensional transmutation. Under the assumption of the cancellation of the vacuum energy, the dilaton develops a very small mass at 2-loop order. As a result, a flat direction is present in the classical dilaton-Higgs potential at zero temperature while the quantum potential admits two (almost) degenerate local minima with unbroken and broken eletroweak symmetry. We found that the cosmological electroweak phase transition in this model can only be triggered by a QCD chiral symmetry breaking phase transition at low temperatures, $T\lesssim 132$ MeV. Furthermore, unlike the standard case, the universe settles into the chiral symmetry breaking vacuum via a first-order phase transition which gives rise to a stochastic gravitational background with a peak frequency $\sim 10^{-8}$ Hz as well as triggers the production of approximately solar mass primordial black holes. The observation of these signatures of cosmological phase transitions together with the detection of a light dilaton would provide a strong hint of the fundamental role of scale invariance in particle physics.
