description: Scientific data are the key outcome of research activities at universities, research institutes, and industrial R&D centers. With the recent surge in research data production driven by high-throughput techniques, and the digitalization of scientific methods, data management has become more critical than ever. Moreover, multidisciplinary collaborative research requires the seamless exchange of research data between team members and different laboratories.To ensure that these vast amounts of diverse research data are handled effectively and result in valuable human knowledge and discoveries, it is imperative that proper data management practices are implemented. This ensures that data are produced in a high-quality, reproducible, and well-documented manner so that they can be machine-actionable and reusable in the future.Research Data Management (RDM) refers to the practices used in handling scientific data throughout their lifecycle, from collection to reuse.In this interactive tutorial, we will explain the different stages of the research data lifecycle and identify the best practices for each stage. We will explore the FAIR data principles —Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable— and provide insights into their implementation during the research process. In addition, we will introduce the concept of data management plans, which define the data management process during research projects, along with practical tips on the various components and how to comply with funder requirements.You can watch the full presentation on our Youtube channel.

description: Detecting communities in large-scale networks is a challenging task when each vertex may belong to multiple communities, as is often the case in social networks. The multiple memberships of vertices and thus the strong overlaps among communities render many detection algorithms invalid. We develop a Partial Community Merger Algorithm (PCMA) for detecting communities with significant overlaps as well as slightly overlapping and disjoint ones. It is a bottom-up approach based on properly reassembling partial information of communities revealed in ego networks of vertices to reconstruct complete communities. Noise control and merger order are the two key issues in implementing this idea. We propose a novel similarity measure between two merged communities that can suppress noise and an efficient algorithm that recursively merges the most similar pair of communities. The validity and accuracy of PCMA is tested against two benchmarks and compared to four existing algorithms. It is the most efficient one with linear complexity and it outperforms the compared algorithms when vertices have multiple memberships. PCMA is applied to two huge online social networks, Friendster and Sina Weibo. Millions of communities are detected and they are of higher qualities than the corresponding metadata groups. We find that the latter should not be regarded as the ground-truth of structural communities. The significant overlapping pattern found in the detected communities confirms the need of new algorithms, such as PCMA, to handle multiple memberships of vertices in social networks.

description: Nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT) and eigenvalue communication with the use of nonlinear signal spectrum (both discrete and continuous), have been recently discussed as a promising transmission method to combat fiber nonlinearity impairments. However, because the NFT-based transmission method employs the integrability property of the lossless nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE), the original approach can only be applied directly to optical links with ideal distributed Raman amplification. In this paper, we investigate in details the impact of a non-ideal Raman gain profile on the performance of the nonlinear inverse synthesis (NIS) scheme, in which the transmitted information is encoded directly onto the continuous part of the nonlinear signal spectrum. We propose the lossless path-averaged (LPA) model for fiber links with non-ideal Raman gain profile by taking into account the average effect of the Raman gain. We show that the NIS scheme employing the LPA model can offer a performance gain of 3 dB regardless of the Raman gain profiles

description: We analyze the differences between relativistic fields with or without quantum degrees of freedom in relativistic quantum information protocols. We classify the regimes where the existence of quantum degrees of freedom is necessary to explain the phenomenology of interacting quantum systems. We also identify the precise regimes where quantum fields can be well approximated by quantum-controlled classical fields in relativistic quantum information protocols. Our results can be useful to discern which features are fundamentally different in classical and quantum field theory.

description: Within massive gravity, we construct a gravity dual for insulator/metal phase transition and colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) effect found in some manganese oxides materials. In heavy graviton limit, a remarkable magnetic-field-sensitive DC resistivity peak appears at the Curie temperature, where an insulator/metal phase transition happens and the magnetoresistance is scaled with the square of field-induced magnetization. We find that metallic and insulating phases coexist below the Curie point and the relation with the electronic phase separation is discussed.

description: The phase transition of the two-dimensional $U(1)$ quantum link model on the triangular lattice is investigated by employing a supervised neural network (NN) consisting of only one input layer, one hidden layer of two neurons, and one output layer. No information on the studied model is used when the NN training is conducted. Instead, two artificially made configurations are considered as the training set. Interestingly, the obtained NN not only estimates the critical point accurately but also uncovers the physics correctly. The results presented here imply that a supervised NN, which has a very simple architecture and is trained without any input from the investigated model, can identify the targeted phase structure with high precision.

Year: 2019

description: The present study described changes in body composition and cardiometabolic health during one academic year in male and female college students of each academic class (n=143). Students completed body composition and cardiometabolic health analyses during a single visit on three separate occasions: early Fall semester (August-October) 2017, late spring semester (March-May) 2018, and early Fall semester (August-October) 2018. There was a main effect for time for body mass (p=0.035), BMI (p=0.025), lean mass (p=0.007), and fasting glucose (p=0.046). Females saw significant gains in body mass (p=0.015), BMI (p=0.015), and lean mass (p=0.002). Lean mass of seniors significantly increased (p=0.010) from Fall 2017 to Spring 2018, but no other differences between classes were found with respect to body composition and cardiometabolic health. The results of this study suggest minimal changes in body composition and cardiometabolic health occur during one year of college, regardless of class.

description: Kepler and K2 data analysis reported in the literature is mostly based on aperture photometry. Because of Kepler's large, undersampled pixels and the presence of nearby sources, aperture photometry is not always the ideal way to obtain high-precision photometry and, because of this, the data set has not been fully exploited so far. We present a new method that builds on our experience with undersampled HST images. The method involves a point-spread function (PSF) neighbour-subtraction and was specifically developed to exploit the huge potential offered by the K2 "super-stamps" covering the core of dense star clusters. Our test-bed targets were the NGC 2158 and M 35 regions observed during the K2 Campaign 0. We present our PSF modeling and demonstrate that, by using a high-angular-resolution input star list from the Asiago Schmidt telescope as the basis for PSF neighbour subtraction, we are able to reach magnitudes as faint as Kp~24 with a photometric precision of 10% over 6.5 hours, even in the densest regions. At the bright end, our photometric precision reaches ~30 parts-per-million. Our method leads to a considerable level of improvement at the faint magnitudes (Kp>15.5) with respect to the classical aperture photometry. This improvement is more significant in crowded regions. We also extracted raw light curves of ~60,000 stars and detrended them for systematic effects induced by spacecraft motion and other artifacts that harms K2 photometric precision. We present a list of 2133 variables.

Implementing the Systematic Collection of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Information in a Community Mental Health Setting
Creators: name: Slotwinski, Kate L
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: BACKGROUND: Sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) information is becoming part of client demographic information collected in many healthcare settings. Inclusion of these data with regularly collected demographic information is becoming mandatory for compliance with federal programs.  Collecting SOGI information is not always easy to implement and requires customization to a particular healthcare institution’s processes.      METHODS: This quality improvement (QI) project included establishing SOGI questions in a standardized format, client surveys for feedback, an educational intervention with staff, and simple quantitative analysis with t tests.       IMPLEMENTATION: This QI project used the Plan Do Study Act (PDSA) method of planning and implementing change. The SOGI questions were introduced at a single outpatient mental health clinic of a statewide private, not-for-profit agency in the southeastern United States. This project consisted of four complete PDSA cycles, with unique changes to the collection process between each. These included informational statements on client forms, ongoing supervised and unsupervised data collection at the clinic, and a staff training regarding both the collection of SOGI data and serving the LGBTQ community in outpatient care.      RESULTS: PDSA Cycle 3 to PDSA Cycle 4, which consisted of an education intervention for staff, showed the most consistent t-statistics. All questions have effects going in the appropriate direction and three results were statistically significant with p values < 0.05. These results indicate that the staff training was successful in improving the client experience answering SOGI questions. The pilot program established an effective model for implementing SOGI questions in this setting and will gradually be expanded to local clinics, then to the entire state-wide agency.

description: We consider a minimal model of fermionic dark matter, in which the Majorana fermion dark matter (DM) $χ$ couples with the Standard Model (SM) Higgs field $H$ through a higher-dimensional term $-{\cal L}\supset H^\dagger H \barχχ/Λ$, where $Λ$ is the cutoff scale. We assume that $Λ$ is sufficiently large that DM particles are not in thermal equilibrium with the SM Particles throughout the history of the Universe. Hence, DM particles are produced only by the freeze-in mechanism. Through a numerical analysis of the freeze-in mechanism, we show contour plots of the DM relic abundance for various values of the DM mass, reheating temperature and the cutoff scale. We obtain an upper bound of the DM mass and cutoff scale from contour plots on ($m_χ, Λ$)-plane. We also consider the direct DM detection for the parameter regions where the DM relic abundance is consistent with the experimental values. We find that the spin-independent cross section for the elastic scattering with a nucleon is below the current experimental upper bound.

description: The recently proposed aether scalar tensor (AeST) model reproduces both the successes of particle dark matter on cosmological scales and those of modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) on galactic scales. But the AeST model reproduces MOND only up to a certain maximum galactocentric radius. Since MOND is known to fit very well to observations at these scales, this raises the question of whether the AeST model comes into tension with data. We tested whether or not the AeST model is in conflict with observations using a recent analysis of data for weak gravitational lensing. We solved the equations of motion of the AeST model, analyzed the solutions' behavior, and compared the results to observational data. The AeST model shows some deviations from MOND at the radii probed by weak gravitational lensing. The data show no clear indication of these predicted deviations.

description: A central goal in creating long-distance quantum networks and distributed quantum computing is the development of interconnected and individually controlled qubit nodes. Atom-like emitters in diamond have emerged as a leading system for optically networked quantum memories, motivating the development of visible-spectrum, multi-channel photonic integrated circuit (PIC) systems for scalable atom control. However, it has remained an open challenge to realize optical programmability with a qubit layer that can achieve high optical detection probability over many optical channels. Here, we address this problem by introducing a modular architecture of piezoelectrically-actuated atom-control PICs (APICs) and artificial atoms embedded in diamond nanostructures designed for high-efficiency free-space collection. The high-speed 4-channel APIC is based on a splitting tree mesh with triple-phase shifter Mach-Zehnder interferometers. This design simultaneously achieves optically broadband operation at visible wavelengths, high-fidelity switching ($> 40$ dB) at low voltages, sub-$μ$s modulation timescales ($> 30$ MHz), and minimal channel-to-channel crosstalk for repeatable optical pulse carving. Via a reconfigurable free-space interconnect, we use the APIC to address single silicon vacancy color centers in individual diamond waveguides with inverse tapered couplers, achieving efficient single photon detection probabilities (15$\%$) and second-order autocorrelation measurements $g^{(2)}(0) < 0.14$ for all channels. The modularity of this distributed APIC - quantum memory system simplifies the quantum control problem, potentially enabling further scaling to 1000s of channels.

description: Dark matter may be charged under dark electromagnetism with a dark photon that kinetically mixes with the Standard Model photon. In this framework, dark matter will collect at the center of the Earth and annihilate into dark photons, which may reach the surface of the Earth and decay into observable particles. We determine the resulting signal rates, including Sommerfeld enhancements, which play an important role in bringing the Earth's dark matter population to their maximal, equilibrium value. For dark matter masses $m_X \sim$ 100 GeV - 10 TeV, dark photon masses $m_{A'} \sim$ MeV - GeV, and kinetic mixing parameters $\varepsilon \sim 10^{-10} - 10^{-8}$, the resulting electrons, muons, photons, and hadrons that point back to the center of the Earth are a smoking-gun signal of dark matter that may be detected by a variety of experiments, including neutrino telescopes, such as IceCube, and space-based cosmic ray detectors, such as Fermi-LAT and AMS. We determine the signal rates and characteristics, and show that large and striking signals---such as parallel muon tracks---are possible in regions of the $(m_{A'}, \varepsilon)$ plane that are not probed by direct detection, accelerator experiments, or astrophysical observations.

description: The paper analyzes the achievable strategic role that the porto of Porto Empedocle (sinergy by Agrigento, its “city mother”) could have. This marginal city, localized in the center of the African side of the Sicily, is far from European politics, but this situation could change. It’s necessary to improve the sea routes and to activate the disused railway line from Porto Empedocle to Castelvetrano (near Trapani). This solution will help the accessibility of Agrigento and the development of the little coastal towns organized in a slow and sustainable network.

description: Searching for topological insulators in solids is one of the main issues of modern condensed matter physics since robust gapless edge or surface states of the topological insulators can be used as building blocks of next-generation devices. Enhancing spin-orbit couplings is a promising way to realize topological insulators in solids, whereas the amplitude of the spin-orbit couplings is not sufficiently large in most materials. Here we show a way to realize a topological state characterized by the quantized Zak phase, termed the Zak insulator, with spin-polarized edges in organic antiferromagnetic Mott insulators without relying on the spin-orbit coupling. The obtained Zak insulator can have a large charge gap compared to the conventional topological insulators, since Coulomb interactions mainly govern the amplitude of the charge gap in the antiferromagnetic Mott insulators. Besides the mean-field analysis, we demonstrate that the Zak insulator survives against electron correlation effects by calculating the many-body Zak phase. Our finding provides an unprecedented way to realize a topological state in strongly correlated electron systems.

description: We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2020bio, a double-peaked Type IIb supernova (SN) discovered within a day of explosion, primarily obtained by Las Cumbres Observatory and Swift. SN 2020bio displays a rapid and long-lasting initial decline throughout the first week of its light curve, similarly to other well-studied Type IIb SNe. This early-time emission is thought to originate from the cooling of the extended outer hydrogen-rich (H-rich) envelope of the progenitor star that is shock heated by the SN explosion. We compare SN 2020bio to a sample of other double-peaked Type IIb SNe in order to investigate its progenitor properties. Analytical model fits to the early-time emission give progenitor radius ($\approx$ 100--1500 $R_\odot$) and H-rich envelope mass ($\approx$ 0.01--0.5 $M_\odot$) estimates that are consistent with other Type IIb SNe. However, SN 2020bio displays several peculiarities, including: (1) weak H spectral features indicating a greater amount of mass loss than other Type IIb progenitors; (2) an underluminous secondary light-curve peak that implies a small amount of synthesized $^{56}$Ni ($M_{\text{Ni}}$ $\approx$ 0.02 $M_\odot$); and (3) low-luminosity nebular [O I] and interaction-powered nebular features. These observations are more consistent with a lower-mass progenitor ($M_{\text{ZAMS}} \approx$ 12 $M_\odot$) that was stripped of most of its H-rich envelope before exploding. This study adds to the growing diversity in the observed properties of Type IIb SNe and their progenitors.

ASSOICIATION BETWEEN PEAK VERTICAL GROUND REACTION FORCE, STEPS PER DAY, CUMULATIVE LOADING AND FEMORAL CARTILAGE DEFORMATION AFTER A STANDARDIZED WALKING PROTOCOL IN HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS
Creators: name: Young, Emma
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between walking gait loading variables (peak vertical ground reaction force, steps per day, and cumulative load) and resting femoral cartilage cross sectional area and femoral cartilage deformation immediately following a standardized walking protocol in healthy individuals. Data was obtained to assess gait biomechanics, femoral cartilage measures, and daily steps counts for each participant. Separate univariate multiple linear regression models were conducted to determine the individual associations between knee cartilage baseline cross sectional area and deformation and loading variables. There was an association between greater peak vGRF and lesser resting cartilage total cross sectional area. There were no statistically significant associations between steps per day, cumulative load, and femoral cartilage measures. Clinically, the findings from this study support that moderate levels of activity do not associate with acute changes to resting femoral cartilage cross sectional area and deformation in healthy individuals.

description: Natural and artificial honeycomb lattices are of great interest because the band structure of these lattices, if properly constructed, contains a Dirac point. Such lattices occur naturally in the form of graphene and carbon nanotubes. They have been created in the lab in the form of semiconductor 2DEGs, optical lattices, and photonic crystals. We show that, over a wide energy range, gases (of electrons, atoms, or photons) that propagate through these lattices are Lorentz gases and the corresponding classical dynamics is chaotic. Thus, honeycomb lattices are also of interest for understanding eigenstate thermalization and the conductor-insulator transition due to dynamic Anderson localization.

description: For $K\subset \mathbb C$ a compact subset and $μ$ a positive finite Bore1 measure supported on $K,$ let $R^\infty (K,μ)$ be the weak-star closure in $L^\infty (μ)$ of rational functions with poles off $K.$ We show that if $R^\infty (K,μ)$ has no non-trivial $L^\infty$ summands and $f\in R^\infty (K,μ),$ then $f$ is invertible in $R^\infty (K,μ)$ if and only if Chaumat's map for $K$ and $μ$ applied to $f$ is bounded away from zero on the envelope with respect to $K$ and $μ.$ The result proves the conjecture $\diamond$ posed by J. Dudziak in 1984.

description: Thouless's quantum adiabatic pumping is of fundamental interest to condensed-matter physics. It originally considered a zero-temperature equilibrium state uniformly occupying all the bands below a Fermi surface. In the light of recent direct simulations of Thouless's concept in cold-atom systems, this work investigates the dynamics of quantum adiabatic pumping subject to dephasing, for rather general initial states with nonuniform populations and possibly interband coherence. Using a theory based on pure-dephasing Lindblad evolution, we find that the pumping is contributed by two parts of different nature, a dephasing-modified geometric part weighted by initial Bloch state populations, and an interband-coherence-induced part compromised by dephasing, both of them being independent of the pumping time scale. The overall pumping reflects an interplay of the band topology, initial state populations, initial state coherence, and dephasing. Theoretical results are carefully checked in a Chern insulator model coupled to a pure-dephasing environment, providing a useful starting point to understand and coherently control quantum adiabatic pumping in general situations.

description: Hypergraphs are a powerful abstraction for modeling high-order relations, which are ubiquitous in many fields. A hypergraph consists of nodes and hyperedges (i.e., subsets of nodes); and there have been a number of attempts to extend the notion of $k$-cores, which proved useful with numerous applications for pairwise graphs, to hypergraphs. However, the previous extensions are based on an unrealistic assumption that hyperedges are fragile, i.e., a high-order relation becomes obsolete as soon as a single member leaves it. In this work, we propose a new substructure model, called ($k$, $t$)-hypercore, based on the assumption that high-order relations remain as long as at least $t$ fraction of the members remain. Specifically, it is defined as the maximal subhypergraph where (1) every node is contained in at least $k$ hyperedges in it and (2) at least $t$ fraction of the nodes remain in every hyperedge. We first prove that, given $t$ (or $k$), finding the ($k$, $t$)-hypercore for every possible $k$ (or $t$) can be computed in time linear w.r.t the sum of the sizes of hyperedges. Then, we demonstrate that real-world hypergraphs from the same domain share similar ($k$, $t$)-hypercore structures, which capture different perspectives depending on $t$. Lastly, we show the successful applications of our model in identifying influential nodes, dense substructures, and vulnerability in hypergraphs.

description: Medicine, including fields in healthcare and life sciences, has seen a flurry of quantum-related activities and experiments in the last few years (although biology and quantum theory have arguably been entangled ever since Schrödinger's cat). The initial focus was on biochemical and computational biology problems; recently, however, clinical and medical quantum solutions have drawn increasing interest. The rapid emergence of quantum computing in health and medicine necessitates a mapping of the landscape. In this review, clinical and medical proof-of-concept quantum computing applications are outlined and put into perspective. These consist of over 40 experimental and theoretical studies. The use case areas span genomics, clinical research and discovery, diagnostics, and treatments and interventions. Quantum machine learning (QML) in particular has rapidly evolved and shown to be competitive with classical benchmarks in recent medical research. Near-term QML algorithms have been trained with diverse clinical and real-world data sets. This includes studies in generating new molecular entities as drug candidates, diagnosing based on medical image classification, predicting patient persistence, forecasting treatment effectiveness, and tailoring radiotherapy. The use cases and algorithms are summarized and an outlook on medicine in the quantum era, including technical and ethical challenges, is provided.
Noise crosscorrelations can induce instabilities in coupled driven models

description: We study the effects of noise cross-correlations on the steady states of driven, nonequilibrium systems, which are described by two stochastically driven dynamical variables, in one dimension. We use a well-known stochastically driven coupled model with two dynamical variables, where one of the variables is autonomous being independent of the other, whereas the second one depends explicitly on the former. Introducing cross-correlations of the two noises in the two dynamical equations, we show that depending upon the details of the nonlinear coupling between the dynamical fields, such cross-correlations can induce instabilities in the models, that are otherwise stable in the absence of any cross-correlations. { We argue that this is reminiscent of the roughening transition found in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation in dimensions greater than two.} Phenomenological implications of our results are discussed.

description: The book, whose discussion opened the congress dedicated to Emilio Sereni, 50 years after the publication of “Storia del paesaggio agrario italiano”, propose one very first reflection on Sereni’s scientific heritage, in consideration first of all of historical materialism and his relationship with the Hebraic culture and coexisting philosophical elaboration by Walter Benjamin; secondarily, in consideration of the contribution given to the Italian landscape protection within a “territorialist” view. Regarding this latter theme, an interesting intervention made by Sereni at the first congress organized by “Italia Nostra” association in 1966, has been brought to the light, and can taught us so much in parallel with the main essay.

TARGETING MILITARY HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO SELF-IDENTIFY  AND TAKE ACTION AGAINST COMPASSION FATIGUE:  CAN MINDFULNESS PRACTICE BE THE ANSWER?
Creators: name: Best, Natasha I
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Background: Like their civilian counter parts, military clinicians are at risk of compassion fatigue. Both anecdotal evidence and data collection have demonstrated that healthcare team members inability to self-identify, manage and recover from compassion fatigue can lead to personal emotional and physical distress which can eventually manifest into negative patient outcomes. Studies have shown a relationship between mindfulness interventions and reduction of compassion fatigue and its components of burnout and secondary traumatic stress among clinicians. Aim: This implementation and evaluation project was two-folded. 1: To assess the benefit of the use of the Professional Quality of Life (ProQOL) instrument, to help military clinicians self-identify risk of compassion fatigue. 2: To determine if the use of an abbreviated mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program involving a mobile application and integrated web-based tools would help decrease symptoms of compassion fatigue among a targeted military clinician population. Method: A pilot project using a 4-week MBSR program via a mobile application called Insight Timer, based on an abbreviated version of the 8-week MBSR program developed by Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn was completed with a select group of military clinicians. Results: Four nurse practitioners completed the project. Post intervention, 75% of the participants showed improvement in two subscales of the ProQOL tool that assessed burnout and stress levels and all participants showed improvements in their mindfulness attention as        measured by the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS). Conclusion: Military clinicians must build both internal and external resiliency to mitigate symptoms of compassion fatigue. Mindfulness may be one of the ways in which they accomplish this mission.

description: Exceptional orthogonal Laguerre polynomials can be viewed as an extension of the classical Laguerre polynomials per excluding polynomials of certain order(s) from being eigenfunctions for the corresponding exceptional differential operator. We are interested in the (so-called) Type I $X_1$-Laguerre polynomial sequence $\{L_n^α\}_{n=1}^\infty$, $\text{deg} \,p_n = n$ and $α>0$, where the constant polynomial is omitted. We derive two representations for the polynomials in terms of moments by using determinants. The first representation in terms of the canonical moments is rather cumbersome. We introduce adjusted moments and find a second, more elegant formula. We deduce a recursion formula for the moments and the adjusted ones. The adjusted moments are also expressed via a generating function. We observe a certain detachedness of the first two moments from the others.
