description: Within the standard model, a relation involving branching ratios and direct CP asymmetries holds for the B-decay pairs that are related by U-spin. The violation of this relation indicates new physics (NP). In this paper, we assume that the NP affects only the Delta S = 1 decays, and show that the NP operators are generally the same as those appearing in B -> pi K decays. The fit to the latest B -> pi K data shows that only one NP operator is sizeable. As a consequence, the relation is expected to be violated for only one decay pair: Bd -> K0 pi0 and Bs -> Kbar0 pi0.

description: pPython seeks to provide a parallel capability that provides good speed-up without sacrificing the ease of programming in Python by implementing partitioned global array semantics (PGAS) on top of a simple file-based messaging library (PythonMPI) in pure Python. pPython follows a SPMD (single program multiple data) model of computation. pPython runs on a single-node (e.g., a laptop) running Windows, Linux, or MacOS operating systems or on any combination of heterogeneous systems that support Python, including on a cluster through a Slurm scheduler interface so that pPython can be executed in a massively parallel computing environment. It is interesting to see what performance pPython can achieve compared to the traditional socket-based MPI communication because of its unique file-based messaging implementation. In this paper, we present the point-to-point and collective communication performances of pPython and compare them with those obtained by using mpi4py with OpenMPI. For large messages, pPython demonstrates comparable performance as compared to mpi4py.

description: Advances in therapeutics for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has stagnated for almost 2 decades and there is an increasing interest in deviating from standard targets and strategies which have repeatedly failed in clinical trials. It is a widespread belief in the field that targeting multiple components of AD pathology and applying treatments at earlier stages of AD are key to the development of a cure. Approaches which the short non-coding molecules MicroRNAs (miRNAs) could greatly aid. Within this thesis, I look to utilise AD-related changes in miRNA expression as biomarkers of AD pathology and apply them to the development of a minimally invasive diagnostic tests to aid in the identification of AD and its prodromal stages utilising distinct changes in blood plasma and tear fluid. My profiling study of the miRNA composition in blood identified a distinct expression pattern in AD and MCI subjects with elevated miR-206, Let-7b. We established a precedent for the application of the validated miRNA signature of miR-206 in plasma within an electrochemical detection system, providing a costeffective, point-of-care diagnostic tool. The tear fluid expression profile in AD and MCI establishes a precedent of altered miRNA levels in tear fluid as a novel non-invasive source of miRNA based biomarkers in AD. I characterised Argonaute-2 bound miRNAs in VLW mice to provide a database of miRNA activity changes in a mouse model of tauopathy which can aid the elucidation of Tau’s role in driving miRNA changes in AD and identified a plethora of key miRNAs which undergo distinct alterations in response to aberrant Tau pathology (miR-99a, miR-101, miR-134 and miR-125b). We interrogate the role of miR-22 in regulating neurogenesis in models of Temporal lobe epilepsy, identifying important functions in regulating the morphogenesis of newly-formed neurons and suppressing aberrant neurogenesis with significant implications in AD. The findings in this thesis represent an advancement in the current knowledge of miRNAs in neurological diseases and can provide significant aid to future work in both clinical and research fields targeting earlier stages of AD or targeting miRNA changes in AD as a therapeutic intervention.

description: F type stars are characterised by several physical processes such as different pulsation mechanisms, rotation, convection, diffusion, and magnetic fields. The rapidly rotating delta Scuti star beta Cas can be considered as a benchmark star to study the interaction of several of these effects. We investigate the pulsational and magnetic field properties of beta Cas. We also determine the star's apparent fundamental parameters and chemical abundances. Based on photometric time series obtained from three different space missions (BRITE-Constellation, SMEI, and TESS), we conduct a frequency analysis and investigate the stability of the pulsation amplitudes over four years of observations. We investigate the presence of a magnetic field and its properties using spectropolarimetric observations taken with the Narval instrument by applying the Least Square Deconvolution and Zeeman Doppler Imaging techniques. beta Cas shows only three independent p-mode frequencies down to the few ppm-level; its highest amplitude frequency is suggested to be a $n=3$, $\ell = 2$, $m=0$ mode. Its magnetic field structure is quite complex and almost certainly of a dynamo origin. beta Cas' atmosphere is slightly deficient in iron peak elements and slightly overabundant in C, O, and heavier elements. Atypically for delta Scuti stars, we can only detect three pulsation modes down to exceptionally low noise levels for beta Cas. The star is also one of very few delta Scuti pulsators known to date to show a measurable magnetic field, and the first delta Scuti star with a dynamo magnetic field. These characteristics make beta Cas an interesting target for future studies of dynamo processes in the thin convective envelopes of F-type stars, of the transition region between fossil and dynamo fields, and the interaction between pulsations and magnetic field.

description: We present a general theory of optical coherence tomography (OCT), which synthesizes the fundamental concepts and implementations of OCT under a common 3D k-space framework. At the heart of this analysis is the Fourier diffraction theorem, which relates the coherent interaction between a sample and plane wave to the Ewald sphere in the 3D k-space representation of the sample. While only the axial dimension of OCT is typically analyzed in k-space, we show that embracing a fully 3D k-space formalism allows explanation of nearly every fundamental physical phenomenon or property of OCT, including contrast mechanism, resolution, dispersion, aberration, limited depth of focus, and speckle. The theory also unifies diffraction tomography, confocal microscopy, point-scanning OCT, line-field OCT, full-field OCT, Bessel-beam OCT, transillumination OCT, interferometric synthetic aperture microscopy (ISAM), and optical coherence refraction tomography (OCRT), among others. Our unified theory not only enables clear understanding of existing techniques, but also suggests new research directions to continue advancing the field of OCT.

description: Climate change is commonly assumed to induce species' range shifts towards the poles. Yet, other environmental changes may affect the geographical distribution of species in unexpected ways. Here we quantify multi-decadal shifts in the distribution of European forest plants, and link these shifts to key drivers of forest biodiversity change: climate change, atmospheric deposition (nitrogen and sulphur) and forest canopy dynamics. Surprisingly, westward distribution shifts were 2.6 times more likely than northward ones. Not climate change, but nitrogen-mediated colonization events, possibly facilitated by the recovery from past acidifying deposition, best explain westward movements. Biodiversity redistribution patterns appear complex and are more likely driven by the interplay among several environmental changes than due to the exclusive effects of climate change alone.

description: Motivated by the recent observational and theoretical evidence that long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are likely associated with low metallicity, rapidly rotating massive stars, we examine the cosmological star formation rate (SFR) below a critical metallicity Z_crit Z_sun/10 - Z_sun/5, to estimate the event rate of high-redshift long GRB progenitors. To this purpose, we exploit a galaxy formation scenario already successfully tested on a wealth of observational data on (proto)spheroids, Lyman break galaxies, Lyman alpha emitters, submm galaxies, quasars, and local early-type galaxies. We find that the predicted rate of long GRBs amounts to about 300 events/yr/sr, of which about 30 per cent occur at z>~6. Correspondingly, the GRB number counts well agree with the bright SWIFT data, without the need for an intrinsic luminosity evolution. Moreover, the above framework enables us to predict properties of the GRB host galaxies. Most GRBs are associated with low mass galaxy halos M_H~10^12 M_sun have larger extinction (A_V~0.7-1), SFRs exceeding 100 M_sun/yr and can be detected at submm wavelengths. Most of the hosts have UV magnitudes in the range -20

The share contract and silviculture in British Columbia
Creators: name: McQueen, James Robert George
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The forest industry is a very important part of the economy of British Columbia. A peculiarity of B.C. is the large percentage of forest land under government control. This situation creates difficulties when trying to attract private investment in forest management. Currently, tenure holders have no equity in future timber and only have rights to harvest timber, therefore, there are no voluntary incentives to invest and to manage the land well. The sale of Crown land to private interests on a large scale is likely not acceptable to the people of B.C. and so an alternative must be found. As the structure of the commercial forest land in B.C. undergoes the transition from old-growth to second-growth, the relationship between the Crown and tenure holder begins to resemble that of landlord and tenant farmer in agriculture. A sharecropping contract may have attributes that are desirable for managing forests. Several examples of silvicultural regimes in both the Interior and Coastal regions of B.C. are used to demonstrate how share contracts can be applied to B.C. forestry. The flexibility of ' share contracts allows the risks of forest management to be shared by both parties and they also provide the incentives to perform that the current command and control approaches do not. The calculations in the examples show positive net present values when discounted at 4% on the Coast and 3.5% in the Interior in real terms. Regimes that do not have positive NPVs with these discount rates may still be viable if non-market benefits are included and the equity shares of each party adjusted accordingly. In this way, government can internalize the benefit to the company of producing these goods. Share contracts also allow the Crown to accept logs as payment for use of the land and those logs could be used to supply provincial log markets.

description: Development of drug candidates from phenotypic drug discovery (PDD) programs can be substantially accelerated from a successful target-identification campaign. And candidates from both PDD and target-based drug discovery (TDD) benefit from a solid and comprehensive Mode-of-Action (MoA) understanding. We will introduce bioinformatics approaches to target identification and Mode-of-Action understanding, including in silico, assay-driven, and omics-driven approaches, with a special focus on how advanced analytics - statistics, bioinformatics, and computational biology - orchestrates technologies, platforms, and databases towards a better understanding of small-molecule, large-molecule, and nucleotide-based drug candidates.
Toward Certifying Maps for Safe Registration-based Localization Under Adverse Conditions

description: In this paper, we propose a way to model the resilience of the Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm in the presence of corrupted measurements. In the context of autonomous vehicles, certifying the safety of the localization process poses a significant challenge. As robots evolve in a complex world, various types of noise can impact the measurements. Conventionally, this noise has been assumed to be distributed according to a zero-mean Gaussian distribution. However, this assumption does not hold in numerous scenarios, including adverse weather conditions, occlusions caused by dynamic obstacles, or long-term changes in the map. In these cases, the measurements are instead affected by large and deterministic faults. This paper introduces a closed-form formula approximating the pose error resulting from an ICP algorithm when subjected to the most detrimental adverse measurements. Using this formula, we develop a metric to certify and pinpoint specific regions within the environment where the robot is more vulnerable to localization failures in the presence of faults in the measurements.

Programming and Reasoning with Partial Observability

description: Computer programs are increasingly being deployed in partially-observable environments. A partially observable environment is an environment whose state is not completely visible to the program, but from which the program receives partial observations. Developers typically deal with partial observability by writing a state estimator that, given observations, attempts to deduce the hidden state of the environment. In safety-critical domains, to formally verify safety properties developers may write an environment model. The model captures the relationship between observations and hidden states and is used to prove the software correct. In this paper, we present a new methodology for writing and verifying programs in partially observable environments. We present belief programming, a programming methodology where developers write an environment model that the program runtime automatically uses to perform state estimation. A belief program dynamically updates and queries a belief state that captures the possible states the environment could be in. To enable verification, we present Epistemic Hoare Logic that reasons about the possible belief states of a belief program the same way that classical Hoare logic reasons about the possible states of a program. We develop these concepts by defining a semantics and a program logic for a simple core language called BLIMP. In a case study, we show how belief programming could be used to write and verify a controller for the Mars Polar Lander in BLIMP. We present an implementation of BLIMP called CBLIMP and evaluate it to determine the feasibility of belief programming.

description: In response to COVID-19, a vast number of visualizations have been created to communicate information to the public. Information exposure in a public health crisis can impact people's attitudes towards and responses to the crisis and risks, and ultimately the trajectory of a pandemic. As such, there is a need for work that documents, organizes, and investigates what COVID-19 visualizations have been presented to the public. We address this gap through an analysis of 668 COVID-19 visualizations. We present our findings through a conceptual framework derived from our analysis, that examines who, (uses) what data, (to communicate) what messages, in what form, under what circumstances in the context of COVID-19 crisis visualizations. We provide a set of factors to be considered within each component of the framework. We conclude with directions for future crisis visualization research.

description: We investigate the dissipation rate of a scalar field in the vicinity of the phase transition and the ordered phase, specifically within the universality class of model A. This dissipation rate holds significant physical relevance, particularly in the context of interpreting effective potentials as inputs for dynamical transport simulations, such as hydrodynamics. To comprehensively understand the use of effective potentials and other calculation inputs, such as the functional renormalization group, we conduct a detailed analysis of field dependencies. We solve the functional renormalization group equations on the Schwinger-Keldysh contour to determine the effective potential and dissipation rate for both finite and infinite volumes. Furthermore, we conduct a finite-size scaling analysis to calculate the dynamic critical exponent z. Our extracted value closely matches existing values from the literature.

description: We show that the gradient and the hessian of the Riemann theta function in dimension n can be combined to give a theta function of order n+1 and modular weight (n+5)/2 defined on the theta divisor. It can be seen that the zero locus of this theta function essentially gives the ramification locus of the Gauss map. For jacobians this leads to a description in terms of theta functions and their derivatives of the Weierstrass point locus on the associated Riemann surface.

description: We study the effects of compressive and tensile biaxial strain on direct and phonon-assisted Auger-Meitner recombination (AMR) in silicon using first-principles calculations. We find that the application of strain has a non-trivial effect on the AMR rate. For most AMR processes, the application of strain increases the AMR rate. However, the recombination rate for the AMR process involving two holes and one electron is suppressed by 38% under tensile strain. We further analyze the specific phonon contributions that mediate the phonon-assisted AMR mechanism, demonstrating the increased anisotropy under strain. Our results indicate that the application of tensile strain increases the lifetime of minority electron carriers in p-type silicon, and can be leveraged to improve the efficiency of silicon devices.

description: Stack Overflow hosts valuable programming-related knowledge with 11,926,354 links that reference to the third-party websites. The links that reference to the resources hosted outside the Stack Overflow websites extend the Stack Overflow knowledge base substantially. However, with the rapid development of programming-related knowledge, many resources hosted on the Internet are not available anymore. Based on our analysis of the Stack Overflow data that was released on Jun. 2, 2019, 14.2% of the links on Stack Overflow are broken links. The broken links on Stack Overflow can obstruct viewers from obtaining desired programming-related knowledge, and potentially damage the reputation of the Stack Overflow as viewers might regard the posts with broken links as obsolete. In this paper, we characterize the broken links on Stack Overflow. 65% of the broken links in our sampled questions are used to show examples, e.g., code examples. 70% of the broken links in our sampled answers are used to provide supporting information, e.g., explaining a certain concept and describing a step to solve a problem. Only 1.67% of the posts with broken links are highlighted as such by viewers in the posts' comments. Only 5.8% of the posts with broken links removed the broken links. Viewers cannot fully rely on the vote scores to detect broken links, as broken links are common across posts with different vote scores. The websites that host resources that can be maintained by their users are referenced by broken links the most on Stack Overflow -- a prominent example of such websites is GitHub. The posts and comments related to the web technologies, i.e., JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and jQuery, are associated with more broken links. Based on our findings, we shed lights for future directions and provide recommendations for practitioners and researchers.

description: The investigation aimed to analyze the impact of alkyl chain length of cationic surfactants on the thermodynamics and mixed micellization behavior of amitriptyline hydrochloride (AMT) with dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (DTAB)/cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in presence of ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide h[C4mim][Br]. The study involved electrical conductivity measurements at various concentrations and temperatures ranging from 298.15 to 318.15 K. The mixed micellization behavior revealed a synergistic interaction between AMT-DTAB/CTAB in the presence of [C4mim][Br]. The synergistic interaction observed in both cases was attributed to the variation in the alkyl chain length of the cationic surfactant, transitioning from DTAB to CTAB, that was explained by examining the differences between ideal and calculated values of critical micelle concentration (CMC) as well as micellar mole fraction (Xm). The dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements showed the aggregate sizes of DTAB/CTAB with and without AMT in [C4mim][Br]. In addition, we have also investigated the antibacterial activity of individual DTAB, CTAB, AMT, and [C4mim][Br] against two clinically relevant microorganisms, E. coli and S. aureus. Various biological parameters, such as IC50, IC90, MIC, and MBC, were obtained with promising results for pure CTAB and the binary system AMT-CTAB, both in the absence and presence of [C4mim][Br]. Furthermore, thermodynamic parameters obtained from conductivity plots further supported the interaction analysis, providing a comprehensive understanding of how the alkyl chain length of cationic surfactants affects micellization behavior and biological activity.

description: In string theories, interactions are exponentially suppressed for trans-Planckian space-like external momenta. We study a class of quantum field theories that exhibit this feature modeled after Witten's bosonic open string field theory, and discover a Lorentz-invariant UV/IR relation that leads to the spacetime uncertainty principle proposed by Yoneya. Application to a dynamical black hole background suggests that Hawking radiation is turned off around the scrambling time.

description: The issue of international responsibility is one of the important and closely related topics to the issue of justice and its achievement, from redress to the victims of the affected and holding accountable the parties who violate their international obligations and trying to repair the damage by restoring the situation to what it was or resorting to material compensation. It is, therefore, necessary to know what responsibility is, its elements and implications, and with the evolution of the concept of subjects of international law to include international organizations, specialized agencies, multinational bodies and companies and even private natural individuals, the difficulty of establishing and achieving responsibility for States and international organizations does not arise as much as it arises on other legal persons and entities such as multinational corporations, bodies and private individuals. Therefore, it was necessary to address the issue of the effects of liability after verifying its verification and the mechanisms for verifying the applicability of the elements of international responsibility to the relevant legal persons.  Accordingly, international responsibility was addressed in terms of concept, definition and a statement of the elements of its establishment materially, morally and internationally, and the consequent effects of repairing the damage, whether in kind, by restoring the situation to what it was or resorting to material compensation if it is not possible to restore the situation to what it was, because of its impact on reducing violations of international law and achieving security and peace in the international community.

description: There is an embedding of affine vertex algebras $V^k(\mathfrak{gl}_n) \hookrightarrow V^k(\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1})$, and the coset $\mathcal{C}^k(n) = \text{Com}(V^k(\mathfrak{gl}_n), V^k(\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}))$ is a natural generalization of the parafermion algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. It was called the algebra of generalized parafermions by the third author and was shown to arise as a one-parameter quotient of the universal two-parameter $\mathcal{W}_{\infty}$-algebra of type $\mathcal{W}(2,3,\dots)$. In this paper, we consider an analogous structure of orthogonal type, namely $\mathcal{D}^k(n) = \text{Com}(V^k(\mathfrak{so}_{2n}), V^k(\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1}))^{\mathbb{Z}_2}$. We realize this algebra as a one-parameter quotient of the two-parameter even spin $\mathcal{W}_{\infty}$-algebra of type $\mathcal{W}(2,4,\dots)$, and we classify all coincidences between its simple quotient $\mathcal{D}_k(n)$ and the algebras $\mathcal{W}_{\ell}(\mathfrak{so}_{2m+1})$ and $\mathcal{W}_{\ell}(\mathfrak{so}_{2m})^{\mathbb{Z}_2}$. As a corollary, we show that for the admissible levels $k = -(2n-2) + \frac{1}{2} (2 n + 2 m -1)$ for $\widehat{\mathfrak{so}}_{2n}$ the simple affine algebra $L_k(\mathfrak{so}_{2n})$ embeds in $L_k(\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1})$, and the coset is strongly rational. As a consequence, the category of ordinary modules of $L_k(\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1})$ at such a level is a braided fusion category.

description: The notion of scale-invariant dynamics is well established at late times in quantum chaotic systems, as illustrated by the emergence of a ramp in the spectral form factor (SFF). Building on the results of the preceding Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 131, 060404 (2023)], we explore features of scale-invariant dynamics of survival probability and SFF at criticality, i.e., at eigenstate transitions from quantum chaos to localization. We show that, in contrast to the quantum chaotic regime, the quantum dynamics at criticality do not only exhibit scale invariance at late times, but also at much shorter times that we refer to as mid-time dynamics. Our results apply to both quadratic and interacting models. Specifically, we study Anderson models in dimensions three to five and power-law random banded matrices for the former, and the quantum sun model and the ultrametric model for the latter, as well as the Rosenzweig-Porter model.

description: Energy decomposition analysis (EDA) based on absolutely localized molecular orbitals (ALMOs) decomposes the interaction energy between molecules into physically interpretable components like geometry distortion, frozen interactions, polarization, and charge transfer (CT, also sometimes called charge delocalization) interactions. In this work, a numerically exact scheme to decompose the CT interaction energy into pairwise additive terms is introduced for the ALMO-EDA using density functional theory. Unlike perturbative pairwise charge-decomposition analysis, the new approach does not break down for strongly interacting systems, or show significant exchange-correlation functional dependence in the decomposed energy components. Both the energy lowering and the charge flow associated with CT can be decomposed. Complementary occupied-virtual orbital pairs (COVPs) that capture the dominant donor and acceptor CT orbitals are obtained for the new decomposition. It is applied to systems with different types of interactions including DNA base-pairs, borane-ammonia adducts, and transition metal hexacarbonyls. While consistent with most existing understanding of the nature of CT in these systems, the results also reveal some new insights into the origin of trends in donor-acceptor interactions.

Reward-Augmented Decoding: Efficient Controlled Text Generation With a Unidirectional Reward Model

description: While large language models have proven effective in a huge range of downstream applications, they often generate text that is problematic or lacks a desired attribute. In this paper, we introduce Reward-Augmented Decoding (RAD), a text generation procedure that uses a small unidirectional reward model to encourage a language model to generate text that has certain properties. Specifically, RAD uses the reward model to score generations as they are produced and rescales sampling probabilities to favor high-reward tokens. By using a unidirectional reward model, RAD can cache activations from prior generation steps to decrease computational overhead. Through experiments on generating non-toxic and sentiment-controlled text, we demonstrate that RAD performs best among methods that change only the generation procedure and matches the performance of state-of-the-art methods that involve re-training the language model. We further validate that RAD is effective on very large language models while incurring a minimal computational overhead.
Chaotic synchronization in coupled spatially extended beam-plasma systems

description: The appearance of the chaotic synchronization regimes has been discovered for the coupled spatially extended beam-plasma Pierce systems. The coupling was introduced only on the right bound of each subsystem. It has been shown that with coupling increase the spatially extended beam-plasma systems show the transition from asynchronous behavior to the phase synchronization and then to the complete synchronization regime. For the consideration of the chaotic synchronization we used the concept of time scale synchronization described in work [Chaos, 14, 3 (2004) 603-610] and based on the introduction of the continuous set of phases of chaotic signal. In case of unidirectional coupling the generalized synchronization regime has been observed in the spatially extended beam-plasma systems. The generalized synchronization appearance mechanism has been analyzed by means of the offered modified system approach [Phys. Rev. E, 71, 6 (2005) 067201].

description: We report the discovery of HD 110113 b (TOI-755.01), a transiting mini-Neptune exoplanet on a 2.5-day orbit around the solar-analogue HD 110113 (Teff = 5730K). Using TESS photometry and HARPS radial velocities gathered by the NCORES program, we find HD 110113 b has a radius of $2.05\pm0.12$ $R_\oplus$ and a mass of $4.55\pm0.62$ $M_\oplus$. The resulting density of $2.90^{+0.75}_{-0.59}$ g cm^{-3} is significantly lower than would be expected from a pure-rock world; therefore, HD 110113 b must be a mini-Neptune with a significant volatile atmosphere. The high incident flux places it within the so-called radius valley; however, HD 110113 b was able to hold onto a substantial (0.1-1\%) H-He atmosphere over its $\sim4$ Gyr lifetime. Through a novel simultaneous gaussian process fit to multiple activity indicators, we were also able to fit for the strong stellar rotation signal with period $20.8\pm1.2$ d from the RVs and confirm an additional non-transiting planet with a mass of $10.5\pm1.2$ $M_\oplus$ and a period of $6.744^{+0.008}_{-0.009}$ d.
