description: We present the first kinematic study of an $αΩ$-dynamo in the General Relativistic Magneto-HydroDynamics (GRMHD) regime, applied to thick disks orbiting around Kerr black holes and using a fully covariant mean field dynamo closure for the Ohm law. We show that the $αΩ$-dynamo mechanism leads to a continuous exponential growth of the magnetic field within the disk and to the formation of dynamo waves drifting away or toward the equatorial plane. Since the evolution of the magnetic field occurs qualitatively in the same fashion as in the Sun, we present also butterfly diagrams that characterize our models and show the establishment of an additional timescale, which depends on the microscopic properties of the turbulent motions, possibly providing an alternative explanation to periodicities observed in many high-energy astrophysical sources where accretion onto a rotating black hole is believed to operate.

The primordial collisional history of Vesta: crater saturation, surface evolution and survival of the basaltic crust

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: This work explores the implications of the Jovian Early Bombardment (JEB) for the evolution of the primordial Vesta, in particular in terms of crater saturation, crustal excavation and surface erosion. Both scenarios assuming the planetesimals having formed in a quiescent or a turbulent nebula were explored and both primordial and collisionally evolved size-frequency distributions were considered. The results obtained indicate that, if the basaltic surface of Vesta were already formed, the JEB would saturate it with craters and could erode it to depths that vary from hundreds of meters to tens of kilometres. In the latter cases, the surface erosion caused by the JEB would be comparable with the thickness of the eucritic and diogenitic layers of Vesta. In the cases where the global surface erosion is limited, however, large impactors, if too abundant, can excavate the whole crust and extract significant quantities of material from the vestan mantle, incompatible with the present understanding of HED meteorites. This appears to be the case if the impacting planetesimals formed in a turbulent nebula and Jupiter migrated by 0.5 AU or more. Globally, the results obtained suggest that the scenarios where the planetesimal formed in a quiescent nebula and Jupiter underwent a modest migration (i.e. up to 0.5 AU) are the most consistent with our understanding of Vesta, even if the cases of planetesimals formed in a turbulent nebula with Jupiter undergoing limited (i.e. about 0.25 AU) or no migration cannot be ruled out. Recent results on the differentiation of the asteroid, however, raised the possibility that Vesta originally possessed a now-lost undifferentiated crust. In this case, the favoured scenarios would be those where the planetesimals formed in a quiescent nebula and Jupiter underwent a more significant migration (i.e. between 0.5 AU and 1 AU).

description: Short period binary systems containing magnetic Ap stars are anomalously rare. This apparent anomaly may provide insight into the origin of the magnetic fields in theses stars. As an early investigation of this, we observed three close binary systems that have been proposed to host Ap stars. Two of these systems (HD 22128 and HD 56495) we find contain Am stars, but not Ap stars. However, for one system (HD 98088) we find the primary is indeed an Ap star, while the secondary is an Am star. Additionally, the Ap star is tidally locked to the secondary, and the predominately dipolar magnetic field of the Ap star is roughly aligned with the secondary. Further investigations of HD 98088 are planned by the BinaMIcS collaboration.

Where do Babies Come From?

description: A relatively novel procedure has joined the frontiers in reproductive technology. As the world watches and waits for its absolute success, it serves as a source of hope for a group of women without the vessel for child conception. This procedure is known as womb transplantation and was successfully carried it in nine women in Sweden, but it leads to important ethical dilemmas. The nine women, some born without uteri and others void of uteri as a result of hysterectomies, received donor wombs from close relatives. These transplanted wombs have been, at the moment, pronounced temporary. It is said that after two pregnancies, these uteri will be removed from the women, so that they can be weaned of anti-rejection medication. Before this technology, these women would have to opt for adoption or surrogacy. However, in certain European countries like Sweden, surrogacy is prohibited. Thus, these women are left with limited possibilities to mother children. However, with womb transplantation, they have been given an opportunity to, not only have wombs, but to have full term pregnancies and birth healthy children. Before 2014, attempts have been made to transplant uteri. The first attempt was in Saudi Arabia, in 2000. This transplanted womb lasted four months before it was rejected by the woman’s body. In 2011, Turkish doctors performed a successful transplant. The patient’s pregnancy, however, did not reach its full term. Hence, there is a possibility that one or all of these nine women will, in the near future, birth the first baby from a transplanted womb. This “new kind of surgery” has raised questions about the donor source. Is it ethical to use living donors for a non-life saving therapy? It is even more questionable in this case because there are other options available to solve the problem of the targeted patients. British doctors, who seem to have taken into cognisance this ethical question, plan to carry out womb transplants with wombs from dead or dying donors. However, the first two unsuccessful transplants were done with wombs from these types of donors. Should wombs from living donors prove more successful than those from dead donors, there is a possibility that more debates on the ethicality of this procedure will progress.

description: Parity word automata and their determinisation play an important role in automata and game theory. We discuss a determinisation procedure for nondeterministic parity automata through deterministic Rabin to deterministic parity automata. We prove that the intermediate determinisation to Rabin automata is optimal. We show that the resulting determinisation to parity automata is optimal up to a small constant. Moreover, the lower bound refers to the more liberal Streett acceptance. We thus show that determinisation to Streett would not lead to better bounds than determinisation to parity. As a side-result, this optimality extends to the determinisation of Büchi automata.

description: Hemispheres is a full album music release by ‘Au Revoir Hands’. Released (digital and vinyl) on November 12, 2021, this creative work is the culmination of 5 years collaboration between Anthony Lyons and Emily Williams who composed, performed, and recorded it. Hemispheres was also produced by Anthony Lyons and made in several locations in Australia and the United Kingdom. Reflecting the collaboration and making process across the northern and southern hemispheres, Hemispheres is an album about the sea, navigation and voyage. Fusing sounds from the cello, buchla easel synthesiser, beats and samples, Hemispheres explores the worlds of experimental ambient and post-minimal electronics. The album contributes to the genre of contemporary neo-classical music by investigating the ways traditional instrumentation and music structures can be integrated into electronic music contexts. Polyrhythmic devices are applied to beat elements, granular synthesis techniques applied to viola da gamba and harps. Innovative approaches to timbre, spatialisation and production layering are prioritised whilst retaining clear harmonic and melodic frameworks. Hemispheres has been distributed internationally by Ditto music and is available on all major streaming and download stores, including Apple Music, iTunes, Spotify, Tidal, Amazon. The album was also pressed to vinyl by Program Records and is available from select physical stores and the Au Revoir Hands Bandcamp site.

description: The Institute of Physics New Quantum Curriculum consists of freely available online learning and teaching materials (quantumphysics.iop.org) for a first course in university quantum mechanics starting from two-level systems. This approach immediately immerses students in inherently quantum mechanical aspects by focusing on experiments that have no classical explanation. It allows from the start a discussion of interpretive aspects of quantum mechanics and quantum information theory. This article gives an overview of the resources available at the IOP website. The core text is presented as around 80 articles co-authored by leading experts that are arranged in themes and can be used flexibly to provide a range of alternative approaches. Many of the articles include interactive simulations with accompanying activities and problem sets that can be explored by students to enhance their understanding. Much of the linear algebra needed for this approach is part of the resource. Solutions to activities are available to instructors. The resources can be used in a variety of ways from supplements to existing courses to a complete programme.

Particle acceleration and dynamics of double-double radio galaxies: theory vs. observations

description: In this paper we show that a small sample of radio galaxies with evidence for multiple epochs of jet activity (so-called `double-double' radio galaxies) have the same electron injection spectral index in the two activity episodes, a result which might be considered surprising given the very different lobe dynamics expected in the first and second episode. We construct models for the dynamics of radio galaxies, with an emphasis on their episodic behaviour, and show that hotspot formation and confinement of lobes for the inner double of double-double radio galaxies are possible even without any thermal matter in the outer cocoon. We argue that (i) the observed similar injection spectral indices are due to similar jet powers in the two episodes, (ii) the `spectral index--radio power' correlation of a flux limited sample of radio galaxies is the primary one, and not the `spectral index--redshift correlation', (iii) jets are made of pair plasma and not electron-proton, (iv) and the Lorentz factor of the spine of the jet should be $\gapp 10$ to explain the observations. Furthermore, we argue that the observations show that higher power radio galaxies do not have a higher jet bulk Lorentz factors, but instead simply have a higher number density of particles in the jet rest frame. A consequence of our models is that aligned double-double radio galaxies with very old ($\gapp10^8$ yr) outer doubles, or misaligned double-double radio galaxies, are statistically more likely to have dissimilar injection indices in two different episodes, as they will probably have different jet powers.

description: We investigate numerically the interactions of two in-phase and out-of-phase Airy beams and nonlinear accelerating beams in Kerr and saturable nonlinear media, in one transverse dimension. We find that bound and unbound soliton pairs, as well as single solitons, can form in such interactions. If the interval between two incident beams is large relative to the width of their first lobes, the generated soliton pairs just propagate individually and do not interact. However, if the interval is comparable to the widths of the maximum lobes, the pairs interact and display varied behavior. In the in-phase case, they attract each other and exhibit stable bound, oscillating, and unbound states, after shedding some radiation initially. In the out-of-phase case, they repel each other and after an initial interaction, fly away as individual solitons. While the incident beams display acceleration, the solitons or soliton pairs generated from those beams do not.

description: Anti-virulence drugs present an attractive alternative to traditional antibiotics for the treatment of bacterial infections, such as those caused by the major food-borne pathogen Salmonella enterica. Expression of virulence factors essential for Salmonella infection is tightly controlled by a network of transcription regulators. The AraC-like transcription factor HilD is the main integration point of environmental signals into this regulatory network, and hence is an attractive target for novel anti-virulence drugs. This work investigates the different mechanisms by which HilD is regulated at the protein level to control the expression of virulence genes. Long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) are highly abundant in varying concentrations throughout the intestine and are utilised as environmental cues by Salmonella to coordinate expression of virulence genes. LCFAs bind directly to HilD, in a comparable manner to that reported for the other AraC-like transcription factors ToxT and Rns. HilD can accommodate the binding of a wide range of LCFAs with a chain length of 16 – 24 C-atoms. The binding of LCFAs induces conformational changes in the structure of HilD that disrupt both its dimerisation and DNA-binding ability. The regulatory protein HilE is structurally homologous to hemolysin-coregulated protein (Hcp), which is a structural component of the bacterial type VI secretion system. We found that unlike other Hcp family members, HilE exists as a monomer in solution. HilE forms a stable 1:1 complex with HilD. Using hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass-spectrometry (HDX-MS), we show that HilE directly disrupts HilD dimerisation by binding to the HilD dimerisation interface, thereby also preventing HilD from binding to target DNA. Our results highlight two distinct mechanisms by which HilD activity is repressed, which can be exploited for the development of new antivirulence leads. We previously identified the compound C26 as a novel inhibitor of Salmonella virulence gene expression. Here it is shown that C26 specifically binds to HilD and consequently inhibits its ability to bind to target DNA. HDX-MS indicated that C26 binds to the same binding pocket of HilD as LCFAs, albeit likely with a different binding mode. Unlike LCFAs, C26 does not affect HilD dimerisation nor its repression by HilE. We performed a structure-activity relationship analysis of C26 and have so far identified derivatives with 10-fold higher affinity for HilD. The C26 scaffold appears to be an attractive candidate for the development of new antivirulence compounds against Salmonella and our results provide a starting point for the optimisation of C26 into a lead compound.

description: We present new constraints on the couplings of axions and more generic axion-like particles using data from the EDELWEISS-II experiment. The EDELWEISS experiment, located at the Underground Laboratory of Modane, primarily aims at the direct detection of WIMPs using germanium bolometers. It is also sensitive to the low-energy electron recoils that would be induced by solar or dark matter axions. Using a total exposure of up to 448 kg.d, we searched for axion-induced electron recoils down to 2.5 keV within four scenarios involving different hypotheses on the origin and couplings of axions. We set a 95% CL limit on the coupling to photons $g_{Aγ}<2.13\times 10^{-9}$ GeV$^{-1}$ in a mass range not fully covered by axion helioscopes. We also constrain the coupling to electrons, $g_{Ae} < 2.56\times 10^{-11}$, similar to the more indirect solar neutrino bound. Finally we place a limit on $g_{Ae}\times g_{AN}^{\rm eff}<4.70 \times 10^{-17}$, where $g_{AN}^{\rm eff}$ is the effective axion-nucleon coupling for $^{57}$Fe. Combining these results we fully exclude the mass range $0.91\,{\rm eV}

In particular, I emphasize the importance that atomism (in the broadest sense) and relationalism have had in the construction of the theory.

description: The Z Cam stars IW And and V513 Cas are unusual in having outbursts following their standstills in contrast to the usual Z Cam behavior of quiescence following standstills. In order to gain further understanding of these little-studied systems, we obtained spectra correlated with photometry from the AAVSO throughout a 3-4 month interval in 2011. In addition, time-resolved spectra were obtained in 2012 that provided orbital periods of 3.7 hrs for IW And and 5.2 hrs for V513 Cas. The photometry of V513 Cas revealed a regular pattern of standstills and outbursts with little time at quiescence, while IW And underwent many excursions from quiescence to outburst to short standstills. The spectra of IW And are similar to normal dwarf novae, with strong Balmer emission at quiescence and absorption at outburst. In contrast, V513 Cas shows a much flatter/redder spectrum near outburst with strong HeII emission and prominent emission cores in the Balmer lines. Part of this continuum difference may be due to reddening effects. While our attempts to model the outburst and standstill states of IW And indicate a mass accretion rate near 3E-9 solar masses per year, we could find no obvious reason why these systems behave differently following standstill compared to normal Z Cam stars.

description: Compensation for parameter dispersion is a significant challenge for control of inhomogeneous quantum ensembles. In this paper, we present a systematic methodology of sampling-based learning control (SLC) for simultaneously steering the members of inhomogeneous quantum ensembles to the same desired state. The SLC method is employed for optimal control of the state-to-state transition probability for inhomogeneous quantum ensembles of spins as well as $Λ$ type atomic systems. The procedure involves the steps of (i) training and (ii) testing. In the training step, a generalized system is constructed by sampling members according to the distribution of inhomogeneous parameters drawn from the ensemble. A gradient flow based learning and optimization algorithm is adopted to find the control for the generalized system. In the process of testing, a number of additional ensemble members are randomly selected to evaluate the control performance. Numerical results are presented showing the success of the SLC method.

Then we prove that each trajectory of the horizontal gradient of $f$ approaching the set $V_f$ has a limit.

description: We extend some results of [BF12] on subfactor projections to show that the projection of a free factor B to the free factor complex of the free factor A is well-defined with uniformly bound diameter, unless either A is contained in B or A and B are vertex stabilizers of a single splitting of F_n, i.e. they are disjoint. These projections are shown to satisfy properties analogous to subsurface projections, and we give as an application a construction of fully irreducible outer automorphisms using the Bounded Geodesic Image Theorem.

description: We characterize the occupied and unoccupied electronic structure of the topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ by one-photon and two-photon angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and slab band structure calculations. We reveal a second, unoccupied Dirac surface state with similar electronic structure and physical origin to the well-known topological surface state. This state is energetically located 1.5 eV above the conduction band, which permits it to be directly excited by the output of a Ti:Sapphire laser. This discovery demonstrates the feasibility of direct ultrafast optical coupling to a topologically protected, spin-textured surface state.

description: We investigate a hybrid electro-mechanical system consisting of a pair of charged macroscopic mechanical oscillators coupled to a small ensemble of Rydberg atoms. The resonant dipole-dipole coupling between an internal atomic Rydberg transition and the mechanics allows cooling to its motional ground state with a single atom despite the considerable mass imbalance between the two subsystems. We show that the rich electronic spectrum of Rydberg atoms, combined with their high degree of optical control, paves the way towards implementing various quantum-control protocol for the mechanical oscillators.

description: Emergent multilingual English as an additional language literacy learners (EALLs) have unique learning needs as they are learning to read and write for the first time in any language while they are also beginning to develop formal learning strategies that support successful school-based learning. Consequently, EALLs require specialized instruction in how to regulate the metacognitive, cognitive, behavioural, motivational, and emotional aspects of learning in formal classroom environments. Theories of self-regulated learning can inform English as an additional language (EAL) literacy programming and guide instructors in the development of EALLs’ formal learning strategies. The effective use of formal self-regulated learning strategies for planning, monitoring, and evaluating learning is essential for successful school-based learning. In this paper, we review three models of self-regulation (Dörnyei, 2005; Oxford, 2017; Zimmerman, 2013) that inform an instructional sequence designed to support EALLs’ self-regulated learning in the classroom. We describe our research-informed instructional sequence and provide examples of how instructors can encourage EALLs’ use of self-regulatory strategies including commitment, metacognitive, satiation, emotional, and environment control strategies, as well as the development of metastrategies that support self-regulated learning. In summary, we demonstrate how research on self-regulated learning can inform instructional practices for EALLs in EAL literacy classes.

description: In the machining process, tool wear is an unavoidable reason for tool failure. Tool wear has an impact on not just tool life but also the quality of the finished product in terms of dimensional accuracy and surface integrity. Tool wear is a significant element in the annual cost of machining. It happens when the tool-work contact zone experiences abrupt geometrical damage, frictional force, and heat generation. It's essential to accurately evaluate tool wear during machining so that the cutting tool can be replaced before the workpiece surface sustains significant damage. The capacity to assess tool wear is crucial for ensuring high-quality workpieces. Artificial neural network, Deep learning and Machine learning systems, heat generation analysis, image data processing, finite element method and gaussian process are used in order to accurately predict the tool wear during machining operations. In this paper, cutting tool wear prediction in machining operations is reviewed in order to be analyzed and minimized. The main purpose of the study is to provide a useful resource for researchers in the field by presenting an overview of current research on cutting tool wear prediction in machining processes. As a consequence, the research area can be progressed by reading and assessing existing achievements in published articles in order to provide new ideas and methodologies prediction and minimization of tool wear during machining operations.

Tunable negative permeability in a quantum plasmonic metamaterial

description: We consider the integration of quantum emitters into a negative permeability metamaterial design in order to introduce tunability as well as nonlinear behavior. The unit cell of our metamaterial is a ring of metamolecules, each consisting of a metal nanoparticle and a two-level semiconductor quantum dot (QD). Without the QDs, the ring of the unit cell is known to act as an artificial optical magnetic resonator. By adding the QDs we show that a Fano interference profile is introduced into the magnetic field scattered from the ring. This induced interference is shown to cause an appreciable effect in the collective magnetic resonance of the unit cell. We find that the interference provides a means to tune the response of the negative permeability metamaterial. The exploitation of the QD's inherent nonlinearity is proposed to modulate the metamaterial's magnetic response with a separate control field.

European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering (ECCOMAS 2020). The present repository contains the numerical results and the scripts used to produce them.
 The logic was to compute the results using the code PyFrac and export the data as "JSON" files. Then, the "JSON" files are loaded and post-processed using a "Wolfram Mathematica" Notebook. Note also that to post-process the results in "Wolfram Mathematica" you need to download a "Mathematica paclet" that has been developed specifically for such purpose. Partial Funding from the SCCER-SoE (second phase 2017–2020) funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation and the Innosuisse - Swiss Innovation Agency is greatly acknowledged.

description: Evidence from treatment trials shows that the most effective pharmacological treatment for Psychotic Major Depression (PMD) is combined antidepressant and antipsychotic pharmacotherapy. This study investigates the use of antidepressant and antipsychotic treatment for PMD in clinical practice and examines how treatment profiles correlate with demographic and clinical symptoms. Anonymised electronic health records of 2,837 individuals with PMD were followed up for 12-months post-diagnosis in a historic open cohort design. The use of antidepressants and antipsychotics, alone or in combination, were described using frequency statistics. Demographic and clinical characteristics associated with each treatment were assessed using logistic regression analyses. Antidepressant and antipsychotic combination pharmacotherapy was the most used treatment for PMD with 69.9% users, compared to antidepressant monotherapy (10.9%) and antipsychotic monotherapy (10.3%). The remaining 8.9% of individuals did not receive antidepressant or antipsychotic treatment. The presence of delusions was strongly associated with the use of antipsychotics, both alone (odds ratio =3.99, 95% confidence intervals = 2.72–5.83, p<.001) and in combination with antidepressants (OR = 2.7, 95% CI = 2.09–3.67, p<.001), rather than antidepressant treatment alone. Combined antidepressant and antipsychotic pharmacotherapy is the most common treatment of PMD in clinical practice, showing that clinical practice is in line with evidence from treatment research.
A first look at Weyl anomalies in shape dynamics

description: One of the more popular objections towards shape dynamics is the suspicion that anomalies in the spatial Weyl symmetry will arise upon quantization. The purpose of this short paper is to establish the tools required for an investigation of the sort of anomalies that can possibly arise. The first step is to adapt to our setting Barnich and Henneaux's formulation of gauge cohomology in the Hamiltonian setting, which serve to decompose the anomaly into a spatial component and time component. The spatial part of the anomaly, i.e. the anomaly in the symmetry algebra itself ($[Ω, Ω]\propto \hbar$ instead of vanishing) is given by a projection of the second ghost cohomology of the Hamiltonian BRST differential associated to $Ω$, modulo spatial derivatives. The temporal part, $[Ω, H]\propto\hbar$ is given by a different projection of the first ghost cohomology and an extra piece arising from a solution to a functional differential equation. Assuming locality of the gauge cohomology groups involved, this part is always local. Assuming locality for the gauge cohomology groups, using Barnich and Henneaux's results, the classification of Weyl cohomology for higher ghost numbers performed by Boulanger, and following the descent equations, we find a complete characterizations of anomalies in 3+1 dimensions. The spatial part of the anomaly and the first component of the temporal anomaly are always local given these assumptions even in shape dynamics. The part emerging from the solution of the functional differential equations explicitly involves the shape dynamics Hamiltonian, and thus might be non-local. If one restricts this extra piece of the temporal anomaly to be also local, then overall no \emph{local} Weyl anomalies, either temporal or spatial, emerge in the 3+1 case.
