description: We present UBVRI photometry for the old open cluster NGC 6253. From comparison of the observed colour-magnitude diagrams with simulations based on stellar evolutionary models we derive in a self consistent way reddening, distance, and age of the cluster: E(B-V) = 0.23-0.32, (m-M)$_0$ = 10.9$\pm$0.1, metallicity roughly double than solar, and age $\simeq$ 3 Gyr. The cluster has a binary sequence, discernible even through the field contamination, suggesting that about 1/3 of the cluster members belong to binary, or multiple, systems.

description: The solution to the Strong CP problem is analysed within the Minimal Flavour Violation (MFV) context. An Abelian factor of the complete flavour symmetry of the fermionic kinetic terms may play the role of the Peccei-Quinn symmetry in traditional axion models. Its spontaneous breaking, due to the addition of a complex scalar field to the Standard Model scalar spectrum, generates the MFV axion, which may redefine away the QCD theta parameter. It differs from the traditional QCD axion for its couplings that are governed by the fermion charges under the axial Abelian symmetry. It is also distinct from the so-called Axiflavon, as the MFV axion does not describe flavour violation, while it does induce flavour non-universality effects. The MFV axion phenomenology is discussed considering astrophysical, collider and flavour data.

The silver lining of antibiotic resistance: Bacterial-mediated reduction of tetracycline plant stress via antibiotrophy

description: Reuse of water using effluents containing antibiotics from anthropogenic activities has been mainly linked with the development of antibiotic resistance. However, the development of tolerance in bacteria has been hereby found to promote plant growth. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the efficiency of inoculation of a new antibiotic-degrading bacterium, Erwinia strain S9, in augmenting pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants' tolerance to tetracycline (TET) (10 and 20 mg/L). Physiological parameters, such as tissue elongation and biomass, as well as relative water content, were remarkably lower in plants exposed to TET compared to the control. The inhibitory effects of TET were associated with reduced CO2 assimilation, stomatal conductance, transpiration, dark respiration, and light saturation point (LSP). High concentration of TET-induced oxidative stress, attested by the overproduction of superoxide radical (O_2^(-)), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and hydroxyl radical (〖HO〗^), resulting in increased malondialdehyde content and cell death. The high activity of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and guaiacol peroxidase validate the proposed mechanism. Under TET stress conditions, the supplementation of Erwinia strain S9 was beneficial to the pea plants through osmotic adjustment, increased nutrient uptake, gas exchange optimization, and increased antioxidant activities. Its presence not only ensures plant survival and growth during antibiotic stress but also degrades TET via significant antibiotrophy. This strategy is a cost-effective environmental chemical engineering tool that could be used as a depolluting waste waters system or to improve crop resistance in rhizofiltration treatment when treated wastewaters are reused for irrigation.

description: The zero-temperature limit of a continuous phase transition is marked by a quantum critical point, which can generate exotic physics that extends to elevated temperatures. Magnetic quantum criticality is now well known, and has been explored in systems ranging from heavy fermion metals to quantum Ising materials. Ferroelectric quantum critical behaviour has also been recently established, motivating a flurry of research investigating its consequences. Here, we introduce the concept of multiferroic quantum criticality, in which both magnetic and ferroelectric quantum criticality occur in the same system. We develop the phenomenology of multiferroic quantum critical behaviour, describe the associated experimental signatures, and propose material systems and schemes to realize it.

description: Aims. Infrared dark clouds represent the earliest stages of high-mass star formation. Detailed observations of their physical conditions on all physical scales are required to improve our understanding of their role in fueling star formation. Methods. We investigate the large-scale structure of the IRDC G035.39-00.33, probing the dense gas with the classical ammonia thermometer. This allows us to put reliable constraints on the temperature of the extended, pc-scale dense gas reservoir and to probe the magnitude of its non-thermal motions. Available far-infrared observations can be used in tandem with the observed ammonia emission to estimate the total gas mass contained in G035.39-00.33. Results. We identify a main velocity component as a prominent filament, manifested as an ammonia emission intensity ridge spanning more than 6 pc, consistent with the previous studies on the Northern part of the cloud. A number of additional line-of-sight components are found, and a large scale, linear velocity gradient of ~0.2 km s$^{-1}$ pc$^{-1}$ is found along the ridge of the IRDC. In contrast to the dust temperature map, an ammonia-derived kinetic temperature map, presented for the entirety of the cloud, reveals local temperature enhancements towards the massive protostellar cores. We show that without properly accounting for the line of sight contamination, the dust temperature is 2-3 K larger than the gas temperature measured with NH$_3$. Conclusions. While both the large scale kinematics and temperature structure are consistent with that of starless dark filaments, the kinetic gas temperature profile on smaller scales is suggestive of tracing the heating mechanism coincident with the locations of massive protostellar cores.

description: We present the VIRTA-ENRESSH pilot, a proof of concept database of European publications from the social sciences and humanities (SSH). This experimental database integrates metadata of publications from six different universities in four countries.

A total of over 50 000 references were integrated into the VIRTA-ENRESSH-pilot database. In this report we document the steps taken during this pilot, describe the data collected and discuss potential improvements. The potential as a science policy supporting tool of an integrating service for research information system is obvious: a small concerted investment using existing data from different source systems makes it possible to benchmark and monitor outputs across institutional and national boundaries.

description: Precise Doppler studies of extrasolar planets require fine-grained control of observational cadence, i.e. the timing of and spacing between observations. We present a novel framework for scheduling a set of Doppler campaigns with different cadence requirements at the W. M. Keck Observatory (WMKO). For a set of observing programs and allocated nights on an instrument, our software optimizes the timing and ordering of ~1000 observations within a given observing semester. We achieve a near-optimal solution in real-time using a hierarchical Integer Linear Programming (ILP) framework. Our scheduling formulation optimizes over the roughly 10^3000 possible orderings. A top level optimization finds the most regular sequence of allocated nights by which to observe each host star in the request catalog based on a frequency specified in the request. A second optimization scheme minimizes the slews and downtime of the instrument. We have assessed our algorithms performance with simulated data and with the real suite of Doppler observations of the California Planet Search in 2023.

description: We have reanalyzed the OGLE $V$ and $I$ photometry of $\sim 500,000$ stars in Baade's Window, and we confirm the extinction map published by Stanek (1996). However, we find that the interpretation of the OGLE color--magnitude diagram for the disk stars proposed by Paczyński et al. (1994) was incorrect: the dominant disk population in Baade's Window is old, and we find no evidence for a large hole in the inner Galactic disk. We find evidence for a small systematic error in the OGLE photometry for stars below the ``red clump'': the faint stars with $V>18$ have their $(V-I)$ color indices too red by $\sim 0.1\;mag$. We find tentative evidence from the OGLE and HST photometry that the the bulge main sequence turn--off point is brighter by $\sim 0.5 \;mag$ than it is in either 47~Tuc or NGC~6791, indicating that the dominant population of the Galactic bulge is considerably younger than those clusters.

description: In this paper, we introduce notions of nonlinear stabilities for a relative ample line bundle over a holomorphic fibration and define the notion of a geodesic-Einstein metric on this line bundle, which generalize the classical stabilities and Hermitian-Einstein metrics of holomorphic vector bundles. We introduce a Donaldson type functional and show that this functional attains its absolute minimum at geodesic-Einstein metrics, and we also discuss the relations between the existence of geodesic-Einstein metrics and the nonlinear stabilities of the line bundle. As an application, we will prove that a holomorphic vector bundle admits a Finsler-Einstein metric if and only if it admits a Hermitian-Einstein metric, which answers a problem posed by S. Kobayashi.

description: Having arrived in England, in Liverpool, Christmas 1942, and stayed with my grand-parents at 10 Wylva Road (still there!) my father was drafted down to Somerset to work and the family given a commandeered house to live in in Taunton. The first was 36 Manor Road, after which we moved in with "Jasper", to his large, modern, 3 bedroomed detached at 22 Henley Road. (see Pic.4 )(Pic. 5) shows myself and 3 older friends who lived opposite collecting"money for the Guy" which they had made. Also wood, collected for the bonfire. I remember there was an American camp across the field at the end of the road and down a cinder track where we would go, hoping to be given chewing gum.(Pic. 6) shows myself and my sister Barbara, with her two friends, John and Richard. On VE Day we all got on our bikes, bedecked with flags, to race round the streets celebrating. Richard's flag fell off and between the spokes of his front wheel. He crashed and broke his arm.

description: We analyze the empirical content of the Roy model, stripped down to its essential features, namely sector specific unobserved heterogeneity and self-selection on the basis of potential outcomes. We characterize sharp bounds on the joint distribution of potential outcomes and testable implications of the Roy self-selection model under an instrumental constraint on the joint distribution of potential outcomes we call stochastically monotone instrumental variable (SMIV). We show that testing the Roy model selection is equivalent to testing stochastic monotonicity of observed outcomes relative to the instrument. We apply our sharp bounds to the derivation of a measure of departure from Roy self-selection to identify values of observable characteristics that induce the most costly misallocation of talent and sector and are therefore prime targets for intervention. Special emphasis is put on the case of binary outcomes, which has received little attention in the literature to date. For richer sets of outcomes, we emphasize the distinction between pointwise sharp bounds and functional sharp bounds, and its importance, when constructing sharp bounds on functional features, such as inequality measures. We analyze a Roy model of college major choice in Canada and Germany within this framework, and we take a new look at the under-representation of women in~STEM.

description: In my father's later years, as we were trying to "tidy up" his accumulation of memorabilia from various ancestors' households, he gave me an envelope of letters saved from when he first joined the East Yorks Regt 2nd Batt in 1942 to his demob in July 1945. The early ones give sanitized accounts of his training in Scotland in Dunbar and then Brackla Camp Nairn. Long days of non-stop action, cold nights, learning to live with strangers, a suicide of an older married man, responding to his widowed "Maters" family updates as he and siblings were scattered about the country. He then meets my Mum and they eventually marry in December 1943, and how anxious he was that she and his Mum would get on.The first letter I enclose is on June 5th, 1944. The next morning he landed on Queen sector of Sword Beach with A Comp. We then have his account of the assault and his wounding in his arm, and evacuation. Next is his account of return to active duty and suspicion of being awarded the MC. Next are his photographs with FM Montgomery, and I think possibly his cousin who later became Major Reg Rutherford, and I think was also awarded the MC. I add pictures of Dad's MC, letters from the King and Gen Whistler, his MC Gazette entry, and some badges and Christmas cards, also a program regarding the Thanksgiving Service. Also a letter about an experience he had with a German soldier trying to escape capture.

description: There is a widespread concern that relatively few students, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, continue to study chemistry and other science subjects after compulsory education. Yet it remains unclear how different aspects of students’ background and home context, their own attitudes and beliefs, and their experiences of particular teaching approaches in school might limit or facilitate their studying aspirations; concurrently, less research has specifically focused on and surveyed disadvantaged students. In order to gain more insight, 4780 students were surveyed, covering those in Year 7 (age 11–12 years) and in Year 8 (age 12–13) from schools in England with high proportions of those from disadvantaged backgrounds. Predictive modelling highlighted that the students’ aspirations to study non-compulsory science in the future, and to study the particular subject of chemistry, were strongly associated with their extrinsic motivation towards science (their perceived utility of science, considered as a means to gain particular careers or skills), their intrinsic interest in science, and their engagement in extra-curricular activities. Additionally, their self-concept beliefs (their confidence in their own abilities in science), some teaching approaches, and encouragement from teachers and family alongside family science capital had smaller but still relevant associations.

description: We present the first in a series of papers describing the X-ray properties of a sample of 18 Seyfert 1 galaxies, using data obtained by \asca. The imaging data reveal a number of serendipitous hard X-ray sources in some source fields, but none contribute significantly to the hard X-ray flux of the AGN. All but one of the Seyferts show evidence for variability on timescales of minutes-hours, with the amplitude anti-correlated with the source luminosity, confirming previous results. In at least 8 sources, there is evidence that the variability amplitude below 2 keV is greater than that in the hard X-ray band, perhaps indicating variable components other than the power-law in the soft band. Ultra-rapid variability, implying significant power at frequencies $> 10^{-3}$~Hz is detected in at least 5 sources, but is difficult to detect in most cases, due to the sampling and signal-to-noise ratio. In Mrk 766 and MCG-6-30-15 there is also an indication that the high--frequency power--spectra are variable in shape and/or intensity. There is similar evidence in NGC 4151, but on longer time scales.

For a two-dimensional extra space, both analytical and numerical solutions for the metric are found, able to provide a zero or arbitrarily small $Λ_4$. A no-go theorem has also been proved, that maximally symmetric compact extra spaces are inconsistent with 4D Minkowski space in the framework of pure $f(R)$ gravity.

description: We present O(alpha) YFS exponentiated results for wide angle Bhabha scattering at LEP/SLC energies using a new Monte Carlo event generator BHWIDE 1.xx. Our calculations include two options for the pure weak corrections, as presented in Beenakker et al. and in Bohm et al. From comparison with the results of Beenakker et al., Montagna et al. and Cacciari et al., we conclude that the total precision of our BHWIDE results is 0.3% (0.5%) in the LEP1/SLC regime within +-100 MeV (+2.75/-2.5 GeV) of the Z peak. For LEP2, the corresponding precision is currently estimated at 1.5%; the latter could be improved if the data in LEP2 so require. Both precision tags represent clear improvements over what is currently available in the literature.

description: We elucidate the counting of the relevant small parameters in inflationary perturbation theory. Doing this allows for an explicit delineation of the domain of validity of the semi-classical approximation to gravity used in the calculation of inflationary correlation functions. We derive an expression for the dependence of correlation functions of inflationary perturbations on the slow-roll parameter $ε= -\dot{H}/H^2$, as well as on $H/M_p$, where $H$ is the Hubble parameter during inflation. Our analysis is valid for single-field models in which the inflaton can traverse a Planck-sized range in field values and where all slow-roll parameters have approximately the same magnitude. As an application, we use our expression to seek the boundaries of the domain of validity of inflationary perturbation theory for regimes where this is potentially problematic: models with small speed of sound and models allowing eternal inflation.

description: We present strong evidence for variability of the flux of the iron K$α$ emission line in the Seyfert 1 galaxy, NGC 3516. Two ASCA observations, separated by $\sim 1$~yr, showed a marked decrease in continuum flux by $\sim 60$~per cent. The flux in the broad, iron K$α$ line decreased by the same factor in this time period, with no evidence for changes in the line profile. The line variability is significant at $>99$~per cent confidence and rules out models in which the line is produced in a molecular torus located at $>1$~pc from the nucleus. An accretion disk is considerably more likely.

Stellar Winds and Dust Avalanches in the AU Mic Debris Disk
Creators: name: Chiang, Eugene
name: Fung, Jeffrey
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We explain the fast-moving, ripple-like features in the edge-on debris disk orbiting the young M dwarf AU Mic. The bright features are clouds of sub-micron dust repelled by the host star's wind. The clouds are produced by avalanches: radial outflows of dust that gain exponentially more mass as they shatter background disk particles in collisional chain reactions. The avalanches are triggered from a region a few AU across -- the "avalanche zone" -- located on AU Mic's primary "birth" ring, at a true distance of $\sim$35 AU from the star but at a projected distance more than a factor of 10 smaller: the avalanche zone sits directly along the line of sight to the star, on the side of the ring nearest Earth, launching clouds that disk rotation sends wholly to the southeast, as observed. The avalanche zone marks where the primary ring intersects a secondary ring of debris left by the catastrophic disruption of a progenitor up to Varuna in size, less than tens of thousands of years ago. Only where the rings intersect are particle collisions sufficiently violent to spawn the sub-micron dust needed to seed the avalanches. We show that this picture works quantitatively, reproducing the masses, sizes, and velocities of the observed escaping clouds. The Lorentz force exerted by the wind's magnetic field, whose polarity reverses periodically according to the stellar magnetic cycle, promises to explain the observed vertical undulations. The timescale between avalanches, about 10 yr, might be set by time variability of the wind mass-loss rate or, more speculatively, by some self-regulating limit cycle.

On the elementary symmetric functions of a sum of matrices

description: Often in mathematics it is useful to summarize a multivariate phenomenon with a single number and in fact, the determinant -- which is represented by det -- is one of the simplest cases. In fact, this number it is defined only for square matrices and a lot of its properties are very well-known. For instance, the determinant is a multiplicative function, i.e. det(AB)=detA detB, but it is not, in general, an additive function. Another interesting function in the matrix analysis is the characteristic polynomial -- in fact, given a matrix A, this function is defined by $p_A(t)=det(tI-A)$ where I is the identity matrix -- which elements are, up a sign, the elementary symmetric functions associated to the eigenvalues of the matrix A. In the present paper new expressions related with the determinant of sum of matrices and the elementary symmetric functions are given. Moreover, the connection with the Mobius function and the partial ordered sets (poset) is presented. Finally, a problem related with the determinant of sum of matrices is solved.

Under the Shadow of the Magellanic Bridge: A Measurement of the Extragalactic Background at $\sim 0.7$~keV
Creators: name: Wang, Q. Daniel
name: Ye, Taisheng
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We measured the extragalactic 0.7 keV X-ray background by observing the X-ray shadow of a neutral gas cloud in the Magellanic Bridge region. Two \rosat PSPC observations of total 104~ks were complemented by a detailed H I mapping of the cloud with both the Parkes 64~m telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. From the detected anti-correlation between the observed background intensity and the \ion{H}{1} column density of the cloud, we derived the unabsorbed extragalactic background intensity as 28 keV s^{-1} cm^{-2} keV^{-1} sr^{-1} at 0.7~keV. The 95% confidence lower limit 18 keV s^{-1} cm^{-2} keV^ {-1} sr^{-1}} is greater than the expected point-like source contribution < 14 keV s^{-1} cm^{-2} keV^{-1} sr^{-1}, constrained by the mean source spectrum together with the total background intensity in the 1-2 keV band. A significant fraction of the 0.7 keV background likely arises in a diffuse hot intergalactic medium of a few million degrees, as has been predicted in hydrodynamic simulations of cosmological structure formation.

description: Experiments looking for rare events like the direct detection of dark matter particles, neutrino interactions or the nuclear double beta decay are operated deep underground to suppress the effect of cosmic rays. But the production of radioactive isotopes in materials due to previous exposure to cosmic rays is an hazard when ultra-low background conditions are required. In this context, the generation of long-lived products by cosmic nucleons has been studied for many detector media and for other materials commonly used. Here, the main results obtained on the quantification of activation yields on the Earth's surface will be summarized, considering both measurements and calculations following different approaches. The isotope production cross sections and the cosmic ray spectrum are the two main ingredients when calculating this cosmogenic activation; the different alternatives for implementing them will be discussed. Activation that can take place deep underground mainly due to cosmic muons will be briefly commented too. Presently, the experimental results for the cosmogenic production of radioisotopes are scarce and discrepancies between different calculations are important in many cases, but the increasing interest on this background source which is becoming more and more relevant can help to change this situation.

description: This paper reports results from a high-fidelity driving simulator study (N=215) about a head-up display (HUD) that conveys a conditional automated vehicle's dynamic "uncertainty" about the current situation while fallback drivers watch entertaining videos. We compared (between-group) three design interventions: display (a bar visualisation of uncertainty close to the video), interruption (interrupting the video during uncertain situations), and combination (a combination of both), against a baseline (video-only). We visualised eye-tracking data to conduct a heatmap analysis of the four groups' gaze behaviour over time. We found interruptions initiated a phase during which participants interleaved their attention between monitoring and entertainment. This improved monitoring behaviour was more pronounced in combination compared to interruption, suggesting pre-warning interruptions have positive effects. The same addition had negative effects without interruptions (comparing baseline & display). Intermittent interruptions may have safety benefits over placing additional peripheral displays without compromising usability.

description: I review the bounds on the $R$-parity-violating supersymmetric Yukawa couplings from the considerations of proton stability, $n$--$\bar{n}$ oscillation, $ν_e$-Majorana mass, neutrino-less double $β$ decay, charged-current universality, $e$--$μ$--$τ$ universality, $ν_μ$--$e$ scattering, atomic parity violation, $ν_μ$ deep-inelastic scattering, $K^{+}$-decays, $τ$-decays, $D$-decays and from the precision LEP electroweak observables. I also mention about the sparticle bounds at colliders when the assumption of $R$-parity-conservation is relaxed. Finally, I mention how $R$-parity-violating models have been invoked in an attempt to explain the reported excess in ALEPH 4-jet events.
