description: In this work, we study the merger of two neutron stars with a gravitational mass of 1.4 M_sol each, employing the Shen-Horowitz-Teige equation of state. This equation of state is a corner case, allowing the formation of a stable neutron star with the given total baryonic mass of 3.03 M_sol. We investigate in unprecedented detail the structure of the remnant, in particular the mass distribution, the thermal structure, and the rotation profile. We also compute fluid trajectories both inside the remnant and those relevant for the formation of the disk. We find a peanut-shaped fluid flow inside the remnant following a strong m=2 perturbation. Moreover, the flow is locally compressive, causing the appearance of dynamic hot spots. Further, we introduce new diagnostic measures that are easy to implement in numeric simulations and that allow to quantify mass and compactness of merger remnants in a well-defined way. As in previous studies of supra- and hypermassive stars, we find a remnant with a slowly rotating core and an outer envelope rotating at nearly Keplerian velocity. We compute a Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff star model which agrees well with that of the remnant in the core, while the latter possesses extensive outer layers rotating close to Kepler velocity. Finally, we extract the gravitational wave signal and discuss the detectability with modern observatories. This study has implications for the interpretation of gravitational wave detections from the post-merger phase, and is relevant for short gamma-ray burst models.

description: Nitrogen, carbon monoxide, and methane are key materials in the far outer Solar System where their high volatility enables them to sublimate, potentially driving activity at very low temperatures. Knowledge of their vapor pressures and latent heats of sublimation at relevant temperatures is needed to model the processes involved. We describe a method for using a quartz crystal microbalance to measure the sublimation flux of these volatile ices in the free molecular flow regime, accounting for the simultaneous sublimation from and condensation onto the quartz crystal to derive vapor pressures and latent heats of sublimation. We find vapor pressures to be somewhat lower than previous estimates in literature, with carbon monoxide being the most discrepant of the three species, almost an order of magnitude lower than had been thought. These results have important implications across a variety of astrophysical and planetary environments.

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Higher moments of multiplicity fluctuations of hadrons produced in central nucleus-nucleus collisions are studied within the hadron-resonance gas model in the canonical ensemble. Exact conservation of three charges, baryon number, electric charge, and strangeness, is enforced in the large volume limit. Moments up to the forth order of various particles are calculated at SPS, RHIC and LHC energies. The asymptotic fluctuations within a simplified model with only one conserved charge in the canonical ensemble are discussed where simple analytical expressions for moments of multiplicity distributions can be obtained. Moments products of net-proton, net-kaon, and net-charge distributions in Au + Au collisions at RHIC energies are calculated. The pseudo-rapidity coverage dependence of net-charge fluctuation is discussed.

description: We analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated policy responses on the global economy and food security in 80 low- and middle-income countries. We use a global economy-wide model with detailed disaggregation of agricultural and food sectors and develop a business as usual baseline for 2020 and 2021 called “But-for-COVID” (BfC). We then shock the model with aggregate income shocks derived from the IMF World Economic Outlook for 2020 and 2021. We impose total-factor productivity losses in key sectors as well as consumption decreases induced by social distancing. The resulting shocks in prices and incomes from the CGE model simulations are fed into the USDA-ERS International Food Security Assessment model to derive the impact of the pandemic on food security in these 80 countries. The main effect of the pandemic was to exacerbate the existing declining trend in food security. Food insecurity increases considerably in countries in Asia through income shocks rather than prices effects. We also review trade policies that were put in place to restrict imports and exports of food, and we evaluate their potential for further disruption of markets focusing on the food-security implications.
Studying neutral hydrogen structures during the epoch of reionization using fractal dimensions

description: Fractal dimensions can be used to characterize the clustering and lacunarities in density distributions. We use generalized fractal dimensions to study the neutral hydrogen distribution (HI) during the epoch of reionization. Using a semi-numeric model of ionized bubbles to generate the HI field, we calculate the fractal dimensions for length scales $\sim 10 h^{-1}$ cMpc. We find that the HI field displays significant multifractal behaviour and is not consistent with homogeneity at these scales when the mass averaged neutral fraction $\bar{x}_{\rm HI}^M \gtrsim 0.5$. This multifractal nature is driven entirely by the shapes and distribution of the ionized regions. The sensitivity of the fractal dimension to the neutral fraction implies that it can be used for constraining reionization history. We find that the fractal dimension is relatively less sensitive to the value of the minimum mass of ionizing haloes when it is in the range $\sim 10^9 - 10^{10} h^{-1} M_{\odot}$. Interestingly, the fractal dimension is very different when the reionization proceeds inside-out compared to when it is outside-in. Thus the multifractal nature of HI density field at high redshifts can be used to study the nature of reionization.

description: In this paper, we investigate how to network smartphones for providing communications in disaster recovery. By bridging the gaps among different kinds of wireless networks, we have designed and implemented a system called TeamPhone, which provides smartphones the capabilities of communications in disaster recovery. Specifically, TeamPhone consists of two components: a messaging system and a self-rescue system. The messaging system integrates cellular networking, ad-hoc networking and opportunistic networking seamlessly, and enables communications among rescue workers. The self-rescue system groups, schedules and positions the smartphones of trapped survivors. Such a group of smartphones can cooperatively wake up and send out emergency messages in an energy-efficient manner with their location and position information so as to assist rescue operations. We have implemented TeamPhone as a prototype application on the Android platform and deployed it on off-the-shelf smartphones. Experimental results demonstrate that TeamPhone can properly fulfill communication requirements and greatly facilitate rescue operations in disaster recovery.

description: The recent Facebook rebranding to Meta has drawn renewed attention to the metaverse. Technology giants, amongst others, are increasingly embracing the vision and opportunities of a hybrid social experience that mixes physical and virtual interactions. As the metaverse gains in traction, it is expected that everyday objects may soon connect more closely with virtual elements. However, discovering this "hidden" virtual world will be a crucial first step to interacting with it in this new augmented world. In this paper, we address the problem of connecting physical objects with their virtual counterparts, especially through connections built upon visual markers. We propose a unified recognition framework that guides approaches to the metaverse access points. We illustrate the use of the framework through experimental studies under different conditions, in which an interactive and visually attractive decoration pattern, an Artcode, is used as the approach to enable the connection. This paper will be of interest to, amongst others, researchers working in Interaction Design or Augmented Reality who are seeking techniques or guidelines for augmenting physical objects in an unobtrusive, complementary manner.

description: We report on two-photon interference (TPI) experiments using remote deterministic single-photon sources. Employing 3D in-situ electron-beam lithography, we fabricate quantum-light sources at specific target wavelengths by integrating pre-selected semiconductor quantum dots within monolithic microlenses. The individual single-photon sources show TPI visibilities of 49% and 22%, respectively, under pulsed p-shell excitation at 80 MHz. For the mutual TPI of the remote sources, we observe an uncorrected visibility of 29%, in quantitative agreement with the pure dephasing of the individual sources. Due to its efficient photon extraction within a broad spectral range (> 20 nm), our microlens-based approach is predestinated for future entanglement swapping experiments utilizing entangled photon pairs emitted by distant biexciton-exciton radiative cascades.

description: A rapidly converging 4-dimensional Fourier shape parametrization is used to model the fission process of heavy nuclei. Potential energy landscapes are computed within the macroscopic-microscopic approach, on top of which the multi-dimensional Langevin equation is solved to describe the fission dynamics. Charge equilibration at scission and de-excitation by neutron evaporation of the primary fragments after scission is investigated. The model describes various observables, including fission-fragment mass, charge, and kinetic energy yields, as well as post-scission neutron multiplicities and, most importantly, their correlations, which are crucial to unravel the complexity of the fission process. The parameters of the dynamical model were tuned to reproduce experimental data obtained from thermal neutron-induced fission of $^{235}$U, which allows us to discuss the transition from asymmetric to symmetric fission along the Fm isotopic chain.

description: Graphene is a semi-metal with zero-bandgap, and linear dispersion relation. The metal-contacted graphene plays a very important role in high-performance graphene-based optoelectronic devices. A number of parameters affect the photoresponse, and a detailed understanding of the intricate interdependence of these parameters is crucial for designing and predicting the performance of graphene-based optoelectronic devices. However, despite many theoretical and experimental works, an integrated theoretical or analytical approach that considers multiple factors to determine the photoresponse of graphene phototransistors is still missing. In this work, we develop an advanced analytical model that integrates the effects of electrical, optical, optoelectronic, and contact resistance to determine the resultant photoresponse of graphene devices. Based on this method, the influence of different external stimuli on the photocurrent of the device can be analyzed. It can also assess the effects of geometric shapes of graphene, metal types, doping level, incident light wavelengths, and power on the photoresponse. This model could help to design experiments, such as optimizing device structures and production processes.

description: As automated web accessibility testing tools become enriched with new and improved tests, it can be impractical to leverage those advances. Each tool offers unique benefits, but effectively using multiple tools would require integrating them into a uniform testing and reporting scheme. Such integration is complex, because tools vary in what they try to detect, what they actually detect, and how they classify, describe, and report defects. Consequently, testers typically use only one tool. Testaro is a novel open-source NPM package that checks compliance with about 650 rules defined by an ensemble of 8 tools: alfa, Axe, Equal Access, HTML CodeSniffer, Nu Html Checker, QualWeb, Testaro, and WAVE. Attendees at the demonstration will, within 5 minutes, create jobs for Testaro, run them, and generate unified reports documenting more accessibility issues than any single tool can discover.

description: We analyze the resource overhead of recently proposed methods for universal fault-tolerant quantum computation using concatenated codes. Namely, we examine the concatenation of the 7-qubit Steane code with the 15-qubit Reed-Muller code, which allows for the construction of the 49 and 105-qubit codes that do not require the need for magic state distillation for universality. We compute a lower bound for the adversarial noise threshold of the 105-qubit code and find it to be $8.33\times 10^{-6}.$ We obtain a depolarizing noise threshold for the 49-qubit code of $9.69\times 10^{-4}$ which is competitive with the 105-qubit threshold result of $1.28\times 10^{-3}$. We then provide lower bounds on the resource requirements of the 49 and 105-qubit codes and compare them with the surface code implementation of a logical $T$ gate using magic state distillation. For the sampled input error rates and noise model, we find that the surface code achieves a smaller overhead compared to our concatenated schemes.

description: The introduction of digital technologies in agricultural production is one of the most important elements of strategic development in the agricultural sector and rural areas in Ukraine. In agriculture, these new technologies can modernize the industry, promoting innovation in agribusiness and creating new opportunities for rural development. The introduction of digital technologies in agriculture ensures the accuracy of measurements, speed data collection and processing. Digitization in rural areas is an inevitable process that brings a number of economic, social and environmental benefits. The immediate aim of this paper is to assess the state of implementation of digital technologies in agriculture and to examine opportunities for rural development in Ukraine. Research methods: monographic, descriptive, analysis, synthesis, induction. The results indicate that only large agricultural enterprises in Ukraine are able to implement and use digital technologies. Thus, it is proposed to create an integrated digital portal for agricultural needs, combining solutions that optimize activities of agricultural enterprises: land bank management, production, crop monitoring, warehouse, procurement and supply, equipment and repairs, logistics, inventory and finished products. The article identifies technological and human barriers to introduction of digital technologies in rural areas of Ukraine. In addition it proposes strategies for development of digital literacy and skills among rural residents in Ukraine. The results of the research can have a significant impact on the development of agriculture in Ukraine, promoting digital technologies among other agricultural enterprises and ensuring the development in rural areas, attracting additional agricultural market participants and infrastructure that provide relevant information and digital services to rural residents.

description: Neutron stars are cosmic laboratories uniquely poised to answer fundamental questions about the nature of dense neutron-rich matter. However, knowledge of the equation of state of neutron-rich matter is hindered by uncertainties in the neutron distribution of neutron-rich nuclei. Electroweak probes of ground state densities provide a clean and model-independent tool to mitigate these uncertainties. In this presentation I aim to provide compelling connections between nuclear form factors and neutron stars. Presented at the 2019 Magnificent CEvNS workshop.

description: We study the class of vacuum (Ricci flat) six-dimensional spacetimes admitting a non-degenerate multiple Weyl aligned null direction l, thus being of Weyl type II or more special. Subject to an additional assumption on the asymptotic fall-off of the Weyl tensor, we prove that these spacetimes can be completely classified in terms of the two eigenvalues of the (asymptotic) twist matrix of l and of a discrete parameter $U^0=\pm 1/2, 0$. All solutions turn out to be Kerr-Schild spacetimes of type D and reduce to a family of "generalized" Myers-Perry metrics (which include limits and analytic continuations of the original Myers-Perry black hole metric, such as certain NUT spacetimes). A special subcase corresponds to twisting solutions with zero shear. In passing, limits connecting various branches of solutions are briefly discussed.

description: The repeating cycle of freezing and thawing brings about a physical gelation for the solutions of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) in N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) for appropriate concentrations. It was revealed from wide-angle-X-ray diffraction that the PAN molecules were cross-linked by the crystallization to form a network through the freezing and thawing steps. The profiles of small-angle-X-ray scattering for the gels showed the excess scattering from the network structure formed through gelation, which could not be observed for the pure PAN solution. A reversible swelling and shrinking were observable for the PAN gel as a function of the relative content of DMA and benzene by varying the mixing ratio. The degree of swelling measured by weight, for the swollen and shrunk gels, was in a range from 0.7 to 8. A scaling relation appeared for the gel swelling between the PAN volume fraction (ϕ) and the shear moduli (G) which was measured by tensile and indentation tests, as G = Gs ×(ϕ)s; Gs= 1200 kPa and s = 2.26 ± 0.23. A discussion is given on the value of the scaling exponent, s, on the basis of the conformation of flexible chain molecules in solution and the analogy in the microscopic and macroscopic properties between semidilute polymer solutions and gels.

description: Wir leben in einer Gesellschaft, in der strukturelle Sexismen und Ableismen fest verankert sind. Mädchen und Frauen mit Behinderung bzw. chronischer Erkrankung sind von Doppeldiskriminierung bzw. intersektionaler Diskriminierung betroffen, denn weitere Diskriminierungen, zum Beispiel aufgrund von race oder class, kommen gegebenenfalls zusätzlich hinzu. Daher tragen Mädchen und Frauen mit Behinderung/chronischer Erkrankung ein besonders hohes Risiko, Gewalt zu erleben. In diesem Text geht es um das Gewalterleben und Ansätze der Gewaltprävention von und für Mädchen und Frauen mit Behinderung/chronischer Erkrankung. Es wird auf verschiedene Bereiche von Gewalt eingegangen, auch auf sexualisierte Gewalt. Selbstverständlich können und sollen dabei keine verallgemeinernden Aussagen über die heterogene Gruppe der Mädchen und Frauen mit Behinderung/chronischer Erkrankung getroffen werden. Vielmehr sollen die erhöhten Risikofaktoren benannt und Präventionsstrategien erläutert werden.

description: We revisit the measurement of the polarization fraction, $P$, and the measurement of the polarization angle of partially linearly-polarized gamma rays using their conversion to $e^+e^-$ pairs in the field of a nucleus. We show that an inappropriate definition of the azimuthal angle, $φ$, used to reference the orientation of the final state degrades the precision of the measurement of $P$, by comparison to the optimal case where the bisector angle of the electron and of the positron momenta is used. We then focus on the lowest part of the energy spectrum, below $\approx 10\,$MeV, where a large part of the statistics lie for a cosmic source. We obtain the value of the polarization asymmetry, $A$, of pair conversion at threshold and we show that in the case where the correct expression is used for $φ$, the measured value of $A$ tends to the limit.

description: Corresponding editor: Stefano.Redaelli@cern.ch Several fixed-target experiments at the LHC are being proposed and actively studied. Splitting of beam halo from the core by means of a bent crystal combined with a second bent crystal after the target has been suggested in order to study magnetic and electric dipole moments of short-lived particles. A similar scheme without the second crystal or other schemes with more conventional solid or gas targets have been proposed to study hadronic matter and the quark-gluon plasma, as well as to provide inputs to cosmic ray physics. Most notably, an upgrade of the existing and already productive LHCb gas target (SMOG), which would make use of a storage cell, has been proposed, designed, and extensively reviewed. The implementation in LHCb of a polarised gas target, based on the storage cell technique, was also discussed, motivated by the nucleon-spin study. The status of these proposals, their technical feasibility and impacts on the LHC machine have been studied in the LHC Fixed Target Working Group of the Physics Beyond Collider forum at CERN. The status and outcome of these studies are presented here.

description: Cloud services must be continuously monitored to guarantee that misbehaviors can be timely revealed, compensated, and fixed. While simple applications can be easily monitored and controlled, monitoring non-trivial cloud systems with dynamic behavior requires the operators to be able to rapidly adapt the set of collected indicators. Although the currently available monitoring frameworks are equipped with a rich set of probes to virtually collect any indicator, they do not provide the automation capabilities required to quickly and easily change (i.e., deploy and undeploy) the probes used to monitor a target system. Indeed, changing the collected indicators beyond standard platform-level indicators can be an error-prone and expensive process, which often requires manual intervention. This paper presents a Monitoring-as-a-Service framework that provides the capability to automatically deploy and undeploy arbitrary probes based on a user-provided set of indicators to be collected. The life-cycle of the probes is fully governed by the framework, including the detection and resolution of the erroneous states at deployment time. The framework can be used jointly with existing monitoring technologies, without requiring the adoption of a specific probing technology. We experimented our framework with cloud systems based on containers and virtual machines, obtaining evidence of the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed solution.

description: Background: In this second part of a two-part paper, we intend to demonstrate the impact of the previously proposed advanced quality control pipeline. To understand its benefit and challenge the proposed methodology in a real scenario, we chose to compare the outcome when applying it to the analysis of two patient populations with a significant but highly different types of fatigue: COVID19 and multiple sclerosis (MS). Experimental: 31P-MRS was performed on a 3T clinical MRI, in 19 COVID19 patients, 38 MS patients, and 40 matched healthy controls. Dynamic acquisitions using an MR-compatible ergometer ran over a rest(40s), exercise(2min), and a recovery phase(6min). Long and short TR acquisitions were also made at rest for T1 correction. The advanced data quality control pipeline presented in part 1 is applied to the selected patient cohorts to investigate its impact on clinical outcomes. We first used power and sample size analysis to estimate objectively the impact of adding QCS. Then, comparisons between patients and healthy control groups using validated QCS were performed using unpaired T-tests or Mann-Whitney tests (p<0.05).Results: The application of the QCS resulted in increased statistical power, changed the values of several outcome measures, and reduced variability (SD). A significant difference was found between the T1PCr and T1Pi of MS patients and healthy controls. Furthermore, the use of a fixed correction factor led to systematically higher estimated concentrations of PCr and Pi than when using individually corrected factors. We observed significant differences between the two patient populations and healthy controls for resting [PCr] -- MS only, [Pi], [ADP], [H2PO4-] and pH -- COVID19 only, and post-exercise [PCr],[Pi] and [H2PO4-] - MS only. The dynamic indicators $τ$PCr, $τ$Pi, ViPCr and Vmax were reduced for COVID19 and MS patients compared to controls. Conclusion: Our results show that QCS in dynamic 31P-MRS studies results in smaller data variability and therefore impacts study sample size and power. Although QCS resulted in discarded data and therefore reduced the acceptable data and subject numbers, this rigorous and unbiased approach allowed for proper assessment of muscle metabolites and metabolism in patient populations. The outcomes include an increased metabolite T1, which directly affect the T1 correction factor applied to the amplitudes of the metabolite, and a prolonged $τ$PCr indicating reduced muscle oxidative capacity for patients with MS and COVID19.
