description: This paper introduces new methods to analyze the changing progression of COVID-19 cases to deaths in different waves of the pandemic. First, an algorithmic approach partitions each country or state's COVID-19 time series into a first wave and subsequent period. Next, offsets between case and death time series are learned for each country via a normalized inner product. Combining these with additional calculations, we can determine which countries have most substantially reduced the mortality rate of COVID-19. Finally, our paper identifies similarities in the trajectories of cases and deaths for European countries and U.S. states. Our analysis refines the popular conception that the mortality rate has greatly decreased throughout Europe during its second wave of COVID-19; instead, we demonstrate substantial heterogeneity throughout Europe and the U.S. The Netherlands exhibited the largest reduction of mortality, a factor of 16, followed by Denmark, France, Belgium, and other Western European countries, greater than both Eastern European countries and U.S. states. Some structural similarity is observed between Europe and the United States, in which Northeastern states have been the most successful in the country. Such analysis may help European countries learn from each other's experiences and differing successes to develop the best policies to combat COVID-19 as a collective unit.

description: With the recent strong developments of TianQin and Taiji, we now have an increasing chance to make a correlation analysis in the mHz band by operating them together with LISA. Assuming two LISA-like triangular detectors at general geometrical configurations, we develop a simple formulation to evaluate the network sensitivity to an isotropic gravitational wave background. In our formulation, we fully use the symmetry of data channels within each triangular detector and provide tractable expressions without directly employing cumbersome detector tensors. We concretely evaluate the expected network sensitivities for various potential detector combinations, including the LISA-TianQin pair.

description: The Stellar Planet Survey is an ongoing astrometric search for giant planets and brown dwarfs around a sample of about 30 M-dwarfs. We have discovered several low-mass companions by measuring the motion of our target stars relative to their reference frames. The lowest mass discovery thus far is GJ 802b, a companion to the M5-dwarf GJ 802A. The orbital period is 3.14 +/- 0.03 y, the system mass is 0.214 +/- 0.045 Msolar, and the semi-major axis is 1.28 +/- 0.10 AU or 81 +/- 6 mas. Imaging observations indicate that GJ 802b is likely to be a brown dwarf with the astrometrically determined mass 0.058 +/- 0.021 Msolar (one sigma limits). The remaining uncertainty in the orbit is the eccentricity that is now loosely constrained. We discuss how the system age limits the mass and the prospects to further narrow the mass range when e is more precisely determined.

description: The Benkelman beam is commonly used to measure surace deflections of highway and airfield pavements. The Benkelman beam is based on a simple lever-arm principal and uses dial guages to measure surface deflections under an applied axleload. The Road Rater is an electro-hydraulic testing device that applies a sinusoidal force to the pavement at a fixed amplitude and frequency: surface wave velocities are measured and electronically integrated to obtain surface deflections. Road Rater and Benkelman beam deflections have been successfully simulated using elastic theory and the Chevron N-layer computer program. The analyses presented in this paper illustrate relationships between Road Rater deflections and the more commonly used Benkelman beam deflections.

description: We study the dynamics of an interacting quantum spin chain under the application of a linearly increasing field. This model exhibits a type of localization known as Stark many-body localization. The dynamics shows a strong dependence on the initial conditions, indicating that the system violates the conventional ("strong") eigenstate thermalization hypothesis at any finite gradient of the field. This is contrary to reports of a numerically observed ergodic phase. Therefore, the localization is crucially distinct from disorder-driven many-body localization, in agreement with recent predictions on the basis of localization via Hilbert-space shattering.

description: The Divide Cut Section 3A of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway is located in Tishomingo County, Mississippi. Construction of this portion of the canal required the excavation of a cherty residuum. This material (hereafter referred to as cherty Paleozoic material) is a member of the Fort Payne Formation, of the Mississippian Period, of the Paleozoic era. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanical and engineering properties of the material, including its abrasiveness. Also, the mineralogy of the material was to be determined and a particular effort was made to determine if the material could be classified as Tripoli.  On June 22, 1982, a test pit was excavated east of the canal at Station 13179+75. The excavation was made with a tracked backhoe to a depth of approximately 16.4 feet. Excavation was done and samples were collected under the direct supervision of two geotechnical engineers of the Kentucky Transportation Research Program of the University of Kentucky.  The soil profile encountered at the test pit is illustrated in Figure 1. The location of sampling depths is listed in the same figure. All samples collected were sealed immediately to prevent a loss of moisture while being transported to the laboratory.

description: In recent years, observations have shown that multiple-star systems such as hierarchical triple and quadruple-star systems are common, especially among massive stars. They are potential sources of interesting astrophysical phenomena such as compact object mergers, leading to supernovae, and gravitational wave events. However, many uncertainties remain in their often complex evolution. Here, we present the population synthesis code Multiple Stellar Evolution (MSE), designed to rapidly model the stellar, binary, and dynamical evolution of multiple-star systems. MSE includes a number of new features not present in previous population synthesis codes: (1) an arbitrary number of stars, as long as the initial system is hierarchical, (2) dynamic switching between secular and direct N-body integration for efficient computation of the gravitational dynamics, (3) treatment of mass transfer in eccentric orbits, which occurs commonly in multiple-star systems, (4) a simple treatment of tidal, common-envelope, and mass transfer evolution in which the accretor is a binary instead of a single star, (5) taking into account planets within the stellar system, and (6) including gravitational perturbations from passing field stars. MSE, written primarily in the C++ language, will be made publicly available and has few prerequisites; a convenient Python interface is provided. We give a detailed description of MSE and illustrate how to use the code in practice. We demonstrate its operation in a number of examples.

description: We study the possibility of obtaining noncommutative gravity dynamics from string theory in the Seiberg-Witten limit. We find that the resulting low-energy theory contains more interaction terms than those proposed in noncommutative deformations of gravity. The role of twisted diffeomorphisms in string theory is studied and it is found that they are not standard physical symmetries. It is argued that this might be the reason why twisted diffeomorphisms are not preserved by string theory in the low energy limit. Twisted gauge transformations are also discussed.

Violation of Heisenberg's error-disturbance relation by Stern-Gerlach measurements

description: Although Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is represented by a rigorously proven relation about intrinsic indeterminacy in quantum states, Heisenberg's error-disturbance relation (EDR) has been commonly believed as another aspect of the principle. However, recent developments of quantum measurement theory made Heisenberg's EDR testable to observe its violations. Here, we study the EDR for Stern-Gerlach measurements. In a previous report [arXiv:1910.07929], it has been pointed out that their EDR is close to the theoretical optimal. The present note reports that even the original Stern-Gerlach experiment in 1922, the available experimental data show, violates Heisenberg's EDR. The results suggest that Heisenberg's EDR is more ubiquitously violated than it has long been supposed.

Zeroth-Order Non-Convex Optimization for Cooperative Multi-Agent Systems with Diminishing Step Size and Smoothing Radius

description: We study a class of zeroth-order distributed optimization problems, where each agent can control a partial vector and observe a local cost that depends on the joint vector of all agents, and the agents can communicate with each other with time delay. We propose and study a gradient descent-based algorithm using two-point gradient estimators with diminishing smoothing parameters and diminishing step-size and we establish the convergence rate to a first-order stationary point for general nonconvex problems. A byproduct of our proposed method with diminishing step size and smoothing parameters, as opposed to the fixed-parameter scheme, is that our proposed algorithm does not require any information regarding the local cost functions. This makes the solution appealing in practice as it allows for optimizing an unknown (black-box) global function without prior knowledge of its smoothness parameters. At the same time, the performance will adaptively match the problem instance parameters.

Holographic and Localization Calculations of Boundary F for ${\cal N} = 4$ SUSY Yang-Mills Theory
Creators: name: Van Raamsdonk, Mark

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: ${\cal N} = 4$ Supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory can be defined on a half-space with a variety of boundary conditions preserving scale invariance and half of the original supersymmetry; more general theories with the same symmetry can be obtained by coupling to a 3D SCFT at the boundary. Each of these theories is characterized by a quantity called "boundary $F$", conjectured to decrease under boundary renormalization group flows. In this paper, we calculate boundary $F$ for $U(N)$ ${\cal N} = 4$ SYM theory with the most general half-supersymmetric boundary conditions arising from string theory constructions with D3-branes ending on collections of D5-branes and/or NS5-branes. We first perform the calculation holographically by evaluating the entanglement entropy for a half-ball centered on the boundary using the Ryu-Takayanagi formula in the dual type IIB supergravity solutions. For boundary conditions associated with D3-branes ending on D5 branes only or NS5-branes only, we also calculate boundary $F$ exactly by evaluating the hemisphere partition function using supersymmetric localization. The leading term at large $N$ in the supergravity and localization results agree exactly as a function of the t' Hooft coupling $λ$.

description: The $e^+e^- \rightarrow ZH$ process is the dominant process for the Higgs boson production at the future Higgs factory. In order to match the analysis on the Higgs properties with the highly precise experiment data, it will be crucial to include the theoretical prediction to the full next-to-next-to-leading order electroweak effect in the production rate $σ(e^+e^-\rightarrow ZH)$. In this inspiring work, we categorize the two-loop Feynman diagrams of the $\mathcal O(α^2)$ correction to $e^+e^- \rightarrow ZH$ into 6 categories according to the relevant topological structures. Although 25377 diagrams contribute to the $\mathcal O(α^2)$ correction in total, the number of the most challenging diagrams with seven denominators is 2250, which contain only 312 non-planar diagrams with 155 independent types. This categorization could be a valuable reference for the complete calculation in the future.

description: The nuclear shadowing and antishadowing effects are explained by a unitarized BFKL equation. The $Q^2$- and $x$-variations of the nuclear parton distributions are detailed based on the level of the unintegrated gluon distribution. In particular, the asymptotical behavior of the unintegrated gluon distribution near the saturation limit in nuclear targets is studied. Our results in the nuclear targets are insensitive to the input distributions if the parameters are fixed by the data of a free proton.

The excited energy spectra and electromagnetic transition probabilities are compared with the recently available experimental data. We have found that the observed quadrupole moments in the $11/2^-_1$ states that linearly change with the neutron number are well accounted for by the dominance of prolate shapes throughout the Cd isotope chain. We have also described the properties of several isomeric states in neutron-rich $^{127-131}$In isotopes that were recently observed in Jyväskylä.

description: Excavation, handling, and the environmentally safe disposal of spent oil shale and overburden materials require a knowledge of their geotechnical engineering properties. To determine these properties a laboratory investigation of the physical and geotechnical engineering properties was made. The physical tests consisted of mechanical analyses, Atterberg Limits, and specific gravity determinations. Geotechnical properties were determined by moisture-density analyses, triaxial compression, permeability tests, slake-durability, one-dimensional compression tests, and Los Angeles abrasion. A one-dimensional compression test was devised to address the problem of placement, loading, and saturation of the spent shales and overburden materials. The compacted, unprocessed oil shales were more susceptible to inundation and compression than compacted specimens of retorted shales and chars. Comparisons of the geotechnical properties of the unprocessed oil shales and processed shales are made.

description: Enhancement cavities where a beam of large size (several millimeters) can resonate have several applications, in particular in atomic physics. However, reaching large beam waists in a compact geometry (less than a meter long) typically brings the resonator close to the degeneracy limit. Here we experimentally study a degenerate optical cavity, 44-cm long and consisting of two flat mirrors placed in the focal planes of a lens, in a regime of intermediate finesse ($\sim 150$). We study the impact of the longitudinal misalignement on the optical gain, for different input beam waists up to 5.6~mm, and find data consistent with the prediction of a model based on ABCD propagation of Gaussian beams. We reach an optical gain of 26 for a waist of 1.4~mm, which can have an impact on several applications, in particular atom interferometry. We numerically investigate the optical gain reduction for large beam waists using the angular spectrum method to consider the effects of optical aberrations, which play an important role in such a degenerate cavity. Our calculations quantitatively reproduce the experimental data and will provide a key tool for designing enhancement cavities close to the degeneracy limit. As an illustration, we discuss the application of this resonator geometry to the enhancement of laser beams with top-hat intensity profiles.

description: Large-scale 3D martensitic microstructure evolution problems are studied using a finite-element discretization of a finite-strain phase-field model. The model admits an arbitrary crystallography of transformation and arbitrary elastic anisotropy of the phases, and incorporates Hencky-type elasticity, a penalty-regularized double-obstacle potential, and viscous dissipation. The finite-element discretization of the model is performed in Firedrake and relies on the PETSc solver library. The large systems of linear equations arising are efficiently solved using GMRES and a geometric multigrid preconditioner with a carefully chosen relaxation. The modeling capabilities are illustrated through a 3D simulation of the microstructure evolution in a pseudoelastic CuAlNi single crystal during nano-indentation, with all six orthorhombic martensite variants taken into account. Robustness and a good parallel scaling performance have been demonstrated, with the problem size reaching 150 million degrees of freedom.

description: Frequency-selective or even frequency-tunable Terahertz (THz) photodevices are critical components for many technological applications that require nanoscale manipulation, control and confinement of light. Within this context, gate-tunable phototransistors based on plasmonic resonances are often regarded as the most promising devices for frequency-selective detection of THz fields. The exploitation of constructive interference of plasma waves in such detectors not only promises frequency selectivity, but also a pronounced sensitivity enhancement at the target frequencies. However, clear signatures of plasmon-assisted resonances in THz detectors have been only revealed at cryogenic temperatures so far, and remain unobserved at application-relevant room-temperature conditions. In this work, we demonstrate the sought-after room-temperature resonant detection of THz radiation in short-channel gated photodetectors made from high-quality single-layer graphene. The survival of this intriguing resonant regime at room-temperature ultimately relies on the weak intrinsic electron-phonon scattering in graphene, which avoids the damping of the plasma oscillations.

description: We report on tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) experiments that demonstrate the existence of a significant spin polarization in Co-doped (La,Sr)TiO3-d (Co-LSTO), a ferromagnetic diluted magnetic oxide system (DMOS) with high Curie temperature. These TMR experiments have been performed on magnetic tunnel junctions associating Co-LSTO and Co electrodes. Extensive structural analysis of Co-LSTO combining high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy excluded the presence of Co clusters in the Co-LSTO layer and thus, the measured ferromagnetism and high spin polarization are intrinsic properties of this DMOS. Our results argue for the DMOS approach with complex oxide materials in spintronics.

description: Minimal surfaces arise as energy minimizers for fluid membranes and are thus found in a variety of biological systems. The tight lamellar structures of the endoplasmic reticulum and plant thylakoids are composed of such minimal surfaces in which right and left handed helical motifs are embedded in stoichiometry suggesting global pitch balance. So far, the analytical treatment of helical motifs in minimal surfaces was limited to the small-slope approximation where motifs are represented by the graph of harmonic functions. However, in most biologically and physically relevant regimes the inter-motif separation is comparable with its pitch, and thus this approximation fails. Here, we present a recipe for constructing exact minimal surfaces with an arbitrary distribution of helical motifs, showing that any harmonic graph can be deformed into a minimal surface by exploiting lateral displacements only. We analyze in detail pairs of motifs of the similar and of opposite handedness and also an infinite chain of identical motifs with similar or alternating handedness. Last, we study the second variation of the area functional for collections of helical motifs with asymptotic helicoidal structure and show that in this subclass of minimal surfaces stability requires that the collection of motifs is pitch balanced.

"La Escondida" concentrate is a high grade copper (49 % Cu) concentrate based on chalcocite (CU2S) and pyrite (FeS2), while "La Caridad" contains pyrite (FeS2), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), chalcocite (CU2S) and covellite (CuS) with 29.5 % Cu. The effects of oxygen partial pressure, temperature, and particle size on the reaction behaviour of each concentrate were studied. The reaction products were analyzed for copper, iron, and sulfur to determine the fraction of original sulfur remaining as a measure of the extent of reaction and the Cu/Fe ratio as a measure of copper volatilization. X-Ray Diffraction was employed to identify the phases present and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM-EDX) and Optical Microscopy were used to determine the particle morphology and chemical analysis of the individual particles. The results show that although La Escondida does not contain chalcopyrite, in the individual particles both pyrite and chalcocite are present and form chalcopyrite before ignition, leading to oxidation behaviour similar to that of La Caridad concentrate. The extent of reaction was found to increase with increasing oxygen concentration, temperature and particle size.

description: There were two objectives of the survey summarized in this report. One was to establish 1984 safety belt and child safety seat usage rates in Kentucky which were compared to 1983 and 1982 rates. The other was to evaluate the effectiveness of public information campaigns as a means of increasing safety belt and seat usage rates.  Statewide usage rates in the 19 cities previously surveyed in 1982 and 1983 showed that both driver safety belt and child safety seat and belt usage rates had increased in 1984. The 1984 statewide usage rate of safety belts by drivers was 6.9 percent while the percentage of children in either a safety seat or belt was 30.3.  An analysis found that the increase in driver safety belt rates in cities with public information campaigns was higher than the increase in control cities. When all cities were included in the analysis, the difference was statistically significant. While the increase in child safety seat and belt usage was higher in the target compared to control cities, the difference was not statistically significant.

Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: The objective of the study is to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of available marking materials by means of field tests and to develop a policy for material selection of lane delineation based on these tests. Materials tested included: 100 percent solid epoxy paint, polyester paint, extruded thermoplastic, 3M Stamark tape, 3M Bisymmetric tape, EPOFLEX, solvent epoxy paint, and chlorinated rubber paint. Most test installations have been in place for over two years, and this interim report summarizes findings for that period. The evaluation will continue for another 18 months with recommendations presented in a final report.  Based on current data, expanded use is warranted for: 1) polyester paint on lower volume asphalt roadways and 2) extruded thermoplastic on higher volume asphalt highways with lighting.
Quantum Oscillations of Tunnel Magnetoresistance Induced by Spin-Wave Excitations in Ferromagnet-Ferromagnet-Ferromagnet Double Barrier Tunnel Junctions

description: The possibility of quantum oscillations of the tunnel conductance and magnetoresistance induced by spin-wave excitations in a ferromagnet-ferromagnet-ferromagnet double barrier tunnel junction, when the magnetizations of the two side ferromagnets are aligned antiparallel to that of the middle ferromagnet, is investigated in a self-consistent manner by means of Keldysh nonequilibrium Green function method. It has been found that owing to the s-d exchange interactions between conduction electrons and the spin density induced by spin accumulation in the middle ferromagnet, the differential conductance and the TMR indeed oscillate with the increase of bias voltage, being consistent with the phenomenon that is observed recently in experiments. The effects of magnon modes, the energy levels of electrons as well as the molecular field in the central ferromagnet on the oscillatory transport property of the system are also discussed.

description: We consider the gauge-boson sector of a locally SU(2) x U(1) invariant effective Lagrangian with ten dimension-six operators added to the Lagrangian of the Standard Model. These operators induce anomalous three- and four-gauge-boson couplings and an anomalous gamma gamma H coupling. In the framework of this effective Lagrangian we calculate the helicity amplitudes and differential and total cross sections for the process gamma gamma --> WW at a photon collider. We give relations between different parts of the amplitudes that show which linear combinations of anomalous couplings are measurable in this reaction. The transformation properties of the differential cross section under CP are discussed. We find that three linear combinations of CP conserving and of CP violating couplings can be measured independently of the photon polarisation in gamma gamma --> WW.

Mineral governance, conflicts, and rights : case studies on the informal mining of gold, tin, and coal in Indonesia

description: Mining has been occuring in Indonesia long before even the present nation came into being. Mineral resources form part of the nation's diverse livelihood bases in local communities. The successive governments of the sovereign Indonesian nation-state have felt it necessary to control mineral exploitation and to regulate mining activities. This was seen in Article 33(3) of the 1945 National Constitution that mandated the State to control and exploit all lands, waters, and natural riches contained therein for the greatest benefit of the people. Through the country's mining law and government decrees, the 'controlling' and 'exploiting' aspects are then often manifested in the granting of mining permits to selective big companies - mainly foreign-owned but also national ones-as well as prioritizing the protection of their investments and interests. Consequently, it tended to protect mainly the big players, often at the cost of illegalizing the presence of informal miners. Informality in the Indonesian economy extends into its mineral industries, from extraction through digging, processing, to transportation and marketing. On average, these activities employ nearly ten times the number of people than that in formal mining employment. In Indonesia, all those involved in mining are required to have a permit from the authority as it is regulated in the Mining Law. However, most informal miners choose to operate secretly and fall into the category of 'any mining activity without permit from government institutions according to the laws'. The stance regarding informal mining also involves local resource governance politics; for instance, the 1999 Autonomy Law enables district heads to regulate and issue mining permits to individuals or groups without consulting the central government. Consequently, there are groups of miners who operate with this permit who are still regarded as illegal by the state government. This situation is a contradiction to that of the existing large mining companies who receive permits from the state government. At this stage, legal and illegal becomes blurred. This thesis examines informal mining operations in Pongkor's Cisarua, West Bangka, and South Kalimantan. Besides thrashing out the gaps and inconsistencies in the legal structure of mineral resource governance during and post the New Order regime, I have used field-based methodologies to track the informal 'mineral cycle'-from mining to marketing. The thesis also throws light on the operation of the informal networks, the demand and supply responses, and above all, an evaluation of the informal mining economy of the region. -- provided by Candidate.
Income inequality and the oil resource curse

description: Surprisingly, there has been little research conducted about the cross-country relationship between oil dependence/abundance and income inequality. At the same time, there is some tentative evidence suggesting that oil rich nations tend to under-report data on income inequality, which can potentially influence the estimated empirical relationships between oil richness and income inequality. In this paper we contribute to the literature in a twofold manner. First, we explore in depth the empirical relationship between oil and income inequality by making use of the Standardized World Income Inequality Database; the most comprehensive dataset on income inequality providing comparable data for the broadest set of country-year observations. Second, this is the first study to our knowledge that adopts an empirical framework to examine whether oil rich nations tend to under-report data on income inequality and the possible implications thereof. We make use of Heckman selection models to validate the tendency of oil rich countries to under-report and correct for the bias that might arise as a result of this; we find that oil is associated with lower income inequality with the exception of the very oil-rich economies.

Theory of Myelin Coiling

description: A new model is proposed to explain coiling of myelins composed of fluid bilayers. This model allows the constituent bilayer cylinders of a myelin to be non-coaxial and the bilayer lateral tension to vary from bilayer to bilayer. The calculations show that a myelin would bend or coil to lower its free energy when the bilayer lateral tension is sufficiently large. From a mechanical point of view, the proposed coiling mechanism is analogous to the classical Euler buckling of a thin elastic rod under axial compression. The analysis of a simple two-bilayer case suggests that a bilayer lateral tension of about 1 dyne/cm can easily induce coiling of myelins of typical lipid bilayers. This model signifies the importance of bilayer lateral tension in determining the morphology of myelinic structures.
