description: The practice of mindfulness is described as having self-regulatory features according to clinical and research literature. The potential influence of mindfulness on ego depletion, a model of self-regulation wherein self-regulation is considered to depend on a limited resource, is discussed as a possible avenue for deeper understanding and manipulation of both mindfulness and ego depletion. Two studies are described examining this possibility: in each, mindfulness is proposed to reduce susceptibility to ego depletion. The first study (n = 59) tested participants' ability to sustain their grip on a handgrip exerciser following a stressor (a tedious writing task) and the degree to which individual differences in mindfulness, as measured by the Five Factor Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ; Baer, et al., 2006), moderated this ability. The second study (n = 65) retained the experiment design, but replaced the writing task with a speaking/presentation task. Results from neither study supported the hypotheses. Interpretations of the results are discussed.

Chelsea Road
Creators: name: McCarthy, Ed
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Chelsea Road is an original novel that tells the story of four families living on one block in bong Island. Told from the different perspectives of each family, the story takes place over the span of six months in late 1990. After tragedy strikes---the death of a child on the block---the families are thrust into upheaval: what responsibilities do they have for one another? The neighbors attempt to move forward by planning the events that have brought them together in the past: block parties, church functions, school fundraisers, Thanksgiving dinners. While their grief is communal, their loss is individual, and this is why these events fail to unify Chelsea Road. As new chapters reveal the particularity of loss as it pertains to the individuals in each family, it becomes clear that in order for the residents of Chelsea Road to cope with their shared loss, everyone must first attempt to do something far more difficult: deal with their own.

description: Network data can be conveniently modeled as a graph signal, where data values are assigned to nodes of a graph that describes the underlying network topology. Successful learning from network data is built upon methods that effectively exploit this graph structure. In this work, we leverage graph signal processing to characterize the representation space of graph neural networks (GNNs). We discuss the role of graph convolutional filters in GNNs and show that any architecture built with such filters has the fundamental properties of permutation equivariance and stability to changes in the topology. These two properties offer insight about the workings of GNNs and help explain their scalability and transferability properties which, coupled with their local and distributed nature, make GNNs powerful tools for learning in physical networks. We also introduce GNN extensions using edge-varying and autoregressive moving average graph filters and discuss their properties. Finally, we study the use of GNNs in recommender systems and learning decentralized controllers for robot swarms.

description: Despite the presence of topological disorder, phonons seem to exist also in glasses at very high frequencies (THz) and they remarkably persist into the supercooled liquid. A universal feature of such a systems is the Boson peak, an excess of states over the standard Debye contribution at the vibrational density of states. Exploiting the euclidean random matrix theory of vibrations in amorphous systems we show that this peak is the signature of a phase transition in the space of the stationary points of the energy, from a minima-dominated phase (with phonons) at low energy to a saddle-point dominated phase (without phonons). The theoretical predictions are checked by means of numeric simulations.

description: This study presents a basin wide assessment about the spatio-temporal variability of streamflows in Ecuador for the period 1979-2015. The influence of the tropical Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) on stremaflow variariability from February to April (FMA) period, as the months showing maximum stramflow for the wet season in Ecuador, and from the June to August (JJA), correspondign to the dry season, was analysed. First, a long-term trend analysis was carried out by applying the Sen's slope estimator and the Mann-Kendall test to monthly streamflow data from 45 gaging stations located in different basins across Ecuador. While the coastal region showed the highest generalized positive trends from July to January, the results for the Pacific Andean area suggested a strengthening of the seasonality, presenting an overall increase in the streamflow for all months except August, September and October, which showed negative trends. Second, a singular-value decomposition (SVD) was applied in order to find the main coupled variability patterns between the FMA streamflow and the quasi-coetaneous SST (December-February, DJF) and between the JJA streamflow and the coetaneous SST. The results revealed two main coupled modes for DJF SST/FMA streamflow, the first associated with the canonical El Niño and the second with El Niño Modoki. The latter exerted a major influence on FMA streamflow over most of Ecuador. For JJA streamflow, however, the pattern associated with the traditional El Niño was even more relevant. These results establish the foundations for streamflow modelling in Ecuador based on the Pacific SST, showing the strong response of the streamflows to different types of El Niño events

description: Motivated by recent experiments on interacting bosons in quasi-one-dimensional optical lattice [Nature {\bf 573}, 385 (2019)] we analyse theoretically properties of the system in the crossover between delocalized and localized regimes. Comparison of time dynamics for uniform and density wave like initial states enables demonstration of the existence of the mobility edge. To this end we define a new observable, the mean speed of transport at long times. It gives us an efficient estimate of the critical disorder for the crossover. We also show that the mean velocity growth of occupation fluctuations close to the edges of the system carries the similar information. Using the quantum quench procedure we show that it is possible to probe the mobility edge for different energies.

description: Using Schrödinger functional methods, we show that in the ${\cal N}=4$ SYM/Type IIB Supergravity correspondence the renormalisation of the boundary Newton and gravitational constants arising from bulk fields cancels when we sum over all the Kaluza-Klein modes of Supergravity. This accords with the expected finiteness of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM, and it is expected that other renormalisations cancel in a similar way.

description: The recent IceCube publication claims the observation of cosmic neutrinos with energies down to $\sim 10$ TeV, reinforcing the growing evidence that the neutrino flux in the 10-100 TeV range is unexpectedly large. Any conceivable source of these neutrinos must also produce a $γ$-ray flux which degrades in energy en route to the Earth and contributes to the extragalactic $γ$-ray background measured by the Fermi satellite. In a quantitative multimessenger analysis, featuring minimalistic assumptions, we find a $\geq 3σ$ tension in the data, reaching $\sim 5σ$ for cosmic neutrinos extended down to $\sim 1$ TeV, interpreted as evidence for a population of hidden cosmic-ray accelerators.

description: We present a model describing evolution of the small-scale Navier-Stokes turbulence due to its stochastic distortions by much larger turbulent scales. This study is motivated by numerical findings (laval, 2001) that such interactions of separated scales play important role in turbulence intermittency. We introduce description of turbulence in terms of the moments of the k-space quantities using a method previously developed for the kinematic dynamo problem (Nazarenko, 2003). Working with the $k$-space moments allows to introduce new useful measures of intermittency such as the mean polarization and the spectral flatness. Our study of the 2D turbulence shows that the energy cascade is scale invariant and Gaussian whereas the enstrophy cascade is intermittent. In 3D, we show that the statistics of turbulence wavepackets deviates from gaussianity toward dominance of the plane polarizations. Such turbulence is formed by ellipsoids in the $k$-space centered at its origin and having one large, one neutral and one small axes with the velocity field pointing parallel to the smallest axis.

description: A submicron-resolution infrared spectroscopy technique called optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy was applied to polymer orientation analysis in this work by measuring the wall cross-section of a commercial plastic bottle. Linear dichroism was observed in the O-PTIR spectra. Polarized O-PTIR mapping measurement through the entire wall thickness as wide as 350 µm with submicron spatial resolution visualized a highly oriented thin skin layer with a thickness of fewer than 10 µm near the outer surface, which has been difficult to perform using conventional IR microscopy techniques.

description: Maybe is an original memoir about a young woman living with uncertainty. Diagnosed with an unspecified autoimmune illness at the age of twenty, she enters a new life that is given shape by her fears about her own mortality, as she tries to identify her symptoms and determine their severity. She also faces the reverberations of her father's young death and his own struggle with a chronic illness. While revisiting scenes from her childhood in rural Vermont and her college years in Boston, the author contrasts the sometimes-hero figure of the father with an emotionally distant boyfriend. The author explores what happens when a young person accepts illness as a state of being, and assigns meaning to the different and sometimes eerily similar ways she and her father react to being ill.

description: DeVos, Kwon, and Oum introduced the concept of branch-depth of matroids as a natural analogue of tree-depth of graphs. They conjectured that a matroid of sufficiently large branch-depth contains the uniform matroid $U_{n,2n}$ or the cycle matroid of a large fan graph as a minor. We prove that matroids with sufficiently large branch-depth either contain the cycle matroid of a large fan graph as a minor or have large branch-width. As a corollary, we prove their conjecture for matroids representable over a fixed finite field and quasi-graphic matroids, where the uniform matroid is not an option.

Optical signatures of shear collective modes in strongly interacting Fermi liquids

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The concept of Fermi liquid lays a solid cornerstone to the understanding of electronic correlations in quantum matter. This ordered many-body state rigorously organizes electrons at zero temperature in progressively higher momentum states, up to the Fermi surface. As such, it displays rigidity against perturbations. Such rigidity generates Fermi-surface resonances which manifest as longitudinal and transverse collective modes. Although these Fermi-liquid collective modes have been analyzed and observed in electrically neutral liquid helium, they remain unexplored in charged solid-state systems up to date. In this paper I analyze the transverse shear response of charged three-dimensional Fermi liquids as a function of temperature, excitation frequency and momentum, for interactions expressed in terms of the first symmetric Landau parameter. I consider the effect of momentum-conserving quasiparticle collisions and momentum-relaxing scattering in relaxation-time approximation on the coupling between photons and Fermi-surface collective modes, thus deriving the Fermi-liquid optical conductivity and dielectric function. In the high-frequency, long-wavelength excitation regime the electrodynamic response entails two coherent and frequency-degenerate polaritons, and its spatial nonlocality is encoded by a frequency- and interaction-dependent generalized shear modulus; in the opposite high-momentum low-frequency regime anomalous skin effect takes place. I identify observable signatures of propagating shear collective modes in optical spectroscopy experiments, with applications to the surface impedance and the optical transmission of thin films.

Instability of the ferromagnetic phase under random fields in an Ising spin glass with correlated disorder

description: It is well established that the ferromagnetic phase remains stable under random magnetic fields in three and higher dimensions for the ferromagnetic Ising model and the Edwards-Anderson model of spin glasses without correlation in the disorder variables. In this study, we investigate an Ising spin glass with correlated disorder and demonstrate that the ferromagnetic phase becomes unstable under random fields in any dimension, provided that magnetic field chaos exists in the Edwards-Anderson model on the same lattice. Additionally, we show that this instability can also be attributed to disorder (bond) chaos. We further argue that the model with correlated disorder remains in the ferromagnetic phase even in the presence of symmetry-breaking fields, as long as the Edwards-Anderson model on the same lattice exhibits a spin glass phase under a magnetic field. These results underscore the profound impact of spatial correlations in the disorder.

description: An increasing number of data and knowledge sources are accessible by human and software agents in the expanding Semantic Web. Sources may differ in granularity or completeness, and thus be complementary. Consequently, they should be reconciled in order to unlock the full potential of their conjoint knowledge. In particular, units should be matched within and across sources, and their level of relatedness should be classified into equivalent, more specific, or similar. This task is challenging since knowledge units can be heterogeneously represented in sources (e.g., in terms of vocabularies). In this paper, we focus on matching n-ary tuples in a knowledge base with a rule-based methodology. To alleviate heterogeneity issues, we rely on domain knowledge expressed by ontologies. We tested our method on the biomedical domain of pharmacogenomics by searching alignments among 50,435 n-ary tuples from four different real-world sources. Results highlight noteworthy agreements and particularities within and across sources.

description: Weak antilocalization is studied in an InGaAs quantum well. Anomalous magnetoresistance is measured and described theoretically in fields perpendicular, tilted and parallel to the quantum well plane. Spin and phase relaxation times are found as functions of temperature and parallel field. It is demonstrated that spin dephasing is due to the Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction. The values of electron spin splittings and spin relaxation times are found in the wide range of 2D density. Application of in-plane field is shown to destroy weak antilocalization due to competition of Zeeman and microroughness effects. Their relative contributions are separated, and the values of the in-plane electron g-factor and characteristic size of interface imperfections are found.

According to the developed by us the Quantum-Atomistic Solid-State (QUASST) theory in compounds containing open 3d-/4f-/5f-shell atoms there exists a discrete atomic-like low-energy electronic structure that predominantly determines electronic and magnetic properties of the whole compound. The relatively weak intra-atomic spin-orbit coupling is fundamentally important as it governs the low-energy discrete electronic structure.

description: Denoising is omnipresent in image processing. It is usually addressed with algorithms relying on a set of hyperparameters that control the quality of the recovered image. Manual tuning of those parameters can be a daunting task, which calls for the development of automatic tuning methods. Given a denoising algorithm, the best set of parameters is the one that minimizes the error between denoised and ground-truth images. Clearly, this ideal approach is unrealistic, as the ground-truth images are unknown in practice. In this work, we propose unsupervised cost functions -- i.e., that only require the noisy image -- that allow us to reach this ideal gold standard performance. Specifically, the proposed approach makes it possible to obtain an average PSNR output within less than 1% of the best achievable PSNR.

description: Organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) have the potential to revolutionize the field of organic bioelectronics. To date, most of the reported OECTs include p-type (semi-)conducting polymers as the channel material, while n-type OECTs are yet at an early stage of development, with the best performing electron-transporting materials still suffering from low transconductance, low electron mobility, and slow response time. Here, the high electrical conductivity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and the large volumetric capacitance of the ladder-type π-conjugated redox polymer poly(benzimidazobenzophenanthroline) (BBL) are leveraged to develop n-type OECTs with record-high performance. It is demonstrated that the use of MWCNTs enhances the electron mobility by more than one order of magnitude, yielding fast transistor transient response (down to 15 ms) and high uC* (electron mobility x volumetric capacitance) of about 1 F/cmVs. This enables the development of complementary inverters with a voltage gain of > 16 and a large worst-case noise margin at a supply voltage of < 0.6 V, while consuming less than 1 uW of power.

description: We present an analytical description for the collective dynamics of oscillator ensembles with higher-order coupling encoded by simplicial structure, which serves as an illustrative and insightful paradigm for brain function and information storage. The novel dynamics of the system, including abrupt desynchronization and multistability, are rigorously characterized and the critical points that correspond to a continuum of first-order phase transitions are found to satisfy universal scaling properties. More importantly, the underlying bifurcation mechanism giving rise to multiple clusters with arbitrary ensemble size is characterized using a rigorous spectral analysis of the stable cluster states. As a consequence of $SO_2$ group symmetry, we show that the continuum of abrupt desynchronization transitions result from the instability of a collective mode under the nontrivial antisymmetric manifold in the high dimensional phase space.

description: One area of study within the coping literature concerns how characteristics of people influence the ways in which they cope. Mindfulness is one such characteristic. Research has already shown that some facets of mindfulness are relevant to coping. The present study examined whether higher levels of the mindfulness facets of acting with awareness. nonjudgment, and nonreactivity are related to choice of coping method in a student sample. Specifically. it was hypothesized that these facets would be related to the endorsement of the coping strategies positive reinterpretation and growth, confrontive coping, and avoidance coping. Results showed that participants who used avoidance coping showed lower levels of acting with awareness and nonjudgment. Positive reinterpretation and growth was related to higher levels of the mindfulness facet acting with awareness. Confrontive coping was not related to any of the mindfulness facets.

The relationship between trait level mindfulness and coping in stressful situations
Creators: name: Myhr, Laura G.
Publisher: name: American University

description: One area of study within the coping literature concerns how characteristics of people influence the ways in which they cope. Mindfulness is one such characteristic. Research has already shown that some facets of mindfulness are relevant to coping. The present study examined whether higher levels of the mindfulness facets of acting with awareness. nonjudgment, and nonreactivity are related to choice of coping method in a student sample. Specifically. it was hypothesized that these facets would be related to the endorsement of the coping strategies positive reinterpretation and growth, confrontive coping, and avoidance coping. Results showed that participants who used avoidance coping showed lower levels of acting with awareness and nonjudgment. Positive reinterpretation and growth was related to higher levels of the mindfulness facet acting with awareness. Confrontive coping was not related to any of the mindfulness facets.

description: Calliopsis (Perissander) anomoptera Michener, 1942
[Holotype: AMNH; ♂ Picacho Pass, Arizona, US; August 7, 1940]
Calliopsis anomoptera is a unique bee named for the abnormally shaped wings present in only the male. It specializes on pollen from plants in the family Euphorbiaceae in the genus Euphorbia L. (Fowler 2020, Shinn 1967). This species is widely distributed across the SD and Shinn (1967) reported its presence in the Gulf Coast region of BCS. We examined two males collected in October 1997 from La Sierra de San Francisco in the southern Central Desert (BBSL). See fig. 32.

Recent trends in orchestral programming among major American orchestras, 1988--2009
Creators: name: Valoris, Henry
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Few studies have documented the trends in programming in major American orchestras. Of those that have, only two span a period of more than ten seasons. This study updates analysis techniques used in past studies to provide an analysis of the most recent trends in American orchestral programming. Using the League of American Orchestras' Orchestral Repertoire Reports for nine randomly selected seasons from 1988-1989 through 2008-2009, charts and tables were produced tracing the recent trends in programming by era and region of composition, as well as trends in which composers are programmed most often. The results show that while orchestral programming among major American orchestras has remained fairly steady over the past 20 years, there are some trends worth noting, including a modest increase in contemporary and non-European works performed.

Self-Supervised Visual Learning by Variable Playback Speeds Prediction of a Video

description: We propose a self-supervised visual learning method by predicting the variable playback speeds of a video. Without semantic labels, we learn the spatio-temporal visual representation of the video by leveraging the variations in the visual appearance according to different playback speeds under the assumption of temporal coherence. To learn the spatio-temporal visual variations in the entire video, we have not only predicted a single playback speed but also generated clips of various playback speeds and directions with randomized starting points. Hence the visual representation can be successfully learned from the meta information (playback speeds and directions) of the video. We also propose a new layer dependable temporal group normalization method that can be applied to 3D convolutional networks to improve the representation learning performance where we divide the temporal features into several groups and normalize each one using the different corresponding parameters. We validate the effectiveness of our method by fine-tuning it to the action recognition and video retrieval tasks on UCF-101 and HMDB-51.

description: When carrying out robotic manipulation tasks, objects occasionally fall as a result of the rotation caused by slippage. This can be prevented by obtaining tactile information that provides better knowledge on the physical properties of the grasping. In this paper, we estimate the rotation angle of a grasped object when slippage occurs. We implement a system made up of a neural network with which to segment the contact region and an algorithm with which to estimate the rotated angle of that region. This method is applied to DIGIT tactile sensors. Our system has additionally been trained and tested with our publicly available dataset which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first dataset related to tactile segmentation from non-synthetic images to appear in the literature, and with which we have attained results of 95% and 90% as regards Dice and IoU metrics in the worst scenario. Moreover, we have obtained a maximum error of 3 degrees when testing with objects not previously seen by our system in 45 different lifts. This, therefore, proved that our approach is able to detect the slippage movement, thus providing a possible reaction that will prevent the object from falling.
Caffeine consumption and its association with psychological functioning in a college population
Creators: name: Anderson, Britta L.
Publisher: name: American University

description: Though research about caffeine use and its effects in adults is fairly substantial, little is known about caffeine use in adolescents. Using an online survey, we examined the habitual weekly caffeine consumption and its association with behavior, caffeine dependency and withdrawal, and sleep in a college sample (n = 252). Most respondents (79%) were regular caffeine consumers (consumed at least one type of caffeinated beverage more than once per week). Caffeine consumption was positively correlated with alcohol consumption and the following behavioral and emotional problems as measured by the Youth Self Report: somatic complaints, rule breaking behavior, externalizing problems, affective problems, and conduct problems. The most reported dependency criterion among regular caffeine consumers was having tried to limit caffeine consumption (50.8%). Of those who indicated having experienced withdrawal symptoms (n = 74), 49.3% said that withdrawal symptoms had interfered with their normal daily activities. Greater caffeine use was associated with greater sleep complaints. This study extends the minimal research on caffeine use in late adolescents by demonstrating that many in the college population experience significant functioning due to withdrawal and that habitual caffeine consumption is correlated with behavior patterns.

description: The very early dismissal of Schwarzschild's original solution and manifold, and the rise, under Schwarzschild's name, of the inequivalent solution and manifold found instead by Hilbert, are scrutinised and commented upon, in the light of the subsequent occurrences. It is reminded that Hilbert's manifold suffers from two defects, that are absent in Schwarzschild's manifold. It does not admit a consistent drawing of the arrow of time, and it allows for an invariant, local, intrinsic singularity in its interior. The former defect is remedied by the change of topology of the extensions proposed by Synge, Kruskal and Szekeres. The latter persists unaffected in the extensions, since it is of local character.

description: Organic electrochemical transistors formed by in operando electropolymerization of the semiconducting channel are increasingly becoming recognized as a simple and effective implementation of synapses in neuromorphic hardware. However, very few studies have reported the requirements that must be met to ensure that the polymer spreads along the substrate to form a functional conducting channel. The nature of the interface between the substrate and various monomer precursors of conducting polymers through molecular dynamics simulations is investigated, showing that monomer adsorption to the substrate produces an increase in the effective monomer concentration at the surface. By evaluating combinatorial couples of monomers baring various sidechains with differently functionalized substrates, it is shown that the interactions between the substrate and the monomer precursor control the lateral growth of a polymer film along an inert substrate. This effect has implications for fabricating synaptic systems on inexpensive, flexible substrates.
