description: The cross sections for the lightest neutral Higgs pair production at the one-loop level in photon-photon collisions are calculated in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model(MSSM). We find that the contributions to the lightest Higgs boson pair production cross sections arising from the genuine supersymmetric virtual particles dominate over that arising from the virtual particles in the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) if there are mixing between the right- and left-handed stops, otherwise, the contributions from ones in the 2HDM are dominant. We present the detailed numerical results of the cross sections of the process $e^+e^-\to γγ\to h_0h_0$ in both beamstrahlung and laser back scattering photon modes at the Next Linear Collider (NLC). The cross sections are typically in the range of $10^{-3}fb $ to $10^5 fb$ depending on the choice of the mass of the lightest neutral Higgs boson, $\tanβ$ and photon collision modes, especially whether there are mixing between the stops.

description: We report about the design and the initial performances of the pathfinder mission for a possible large scale neutrino telescope named "STRings for Absorption length in Water" (STRAW). In June 2018 STRAW has been deployed at the Cascadia Basin site operated by Ocean Network Canada and has been collecting data since then. At a depth of about 2600 meters, the two STRAW 120 meters tall mooring lines are instrumented by three "Precision Optical Calibration Modules" (POCAM) and five Digital Optical Sensors (sDOM). We describe the instrumentation deployed and first light in the Pacific Ocean.

description: We explore theoretically the navigation of an active particle based on delayed feedback control. The delayed feedback enters in our expression for the particle orientation which, for an active particle, determines (up to noise) the direction of motion in the next time step. Here we estimate the orientation by comparing the delayed position of the particle with the actual one. This method does not require any real-time monitoring of the particle orientation and may thus be relevant also for controlling sub-micron sized particles, where the imaging process is not easily feasible. We apply the delayed feedback strategy to two experimentally relevant situations, namely, optical trapping and photon nudging. To investigate the performance of our strategy, we calculate the mean arrival time analytically (exploiting a small-delay approximation) and by simulations.

Ignition and propagation mechanisms of spray flames

description: Fuel droplets represent strong inhomogeneities that are generally detrimental and intensify the stochastic behaviour of ignition. Still, the presence of small droplets has been found to decrease minimum ignition energies and enhance flame speeds. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the phases of ignition in sprays is carried out in a controlled, well-characterised experiment: the initiation of a spherically expanding flame in a turbulent droplet-laden jet by a laser spark. A revision of definitions of ignition-related terms is proposed based on a critical time scale of the spark effects on the flame, evaluated from OH* visualisation, allowing for a distinction between the phases of kernel generation and flame growth. Based on the critical time scale, ignition failure time scales can be measured, as well as kernel sizes conditional on ignition or failure. Small kernels typically quenched faster than the critical time scale, characterising the short-mode failure. This mode was suppressed by increasing the laser energy and, consequently, the initial kernel size. Still, the ignitability of lean ethanol mixtures was only effectively improved through high-energy sparks and partial prevaporisation, with ignition being limited by breakdown. In jet fuel sprays, a suppression of short and long-mode failure occurred by decreasing the droplet size. In fact, by doing this, different flame propagation mechanisms were observed by OH/fuel PLIF. Both aviation fuels investigated – Jet A and a renewable alternative, ATJ-8 – exhibited similar flame speed behaviour due to changes in droplet size in each of the modes identified: the droplet, inter-droplet, and gaseous-like propagation modes. Concentrated reactions around large droplets found in lean conditions allowed for a slowly propagating flame front which ignited new droplets. Stoichiometric to rich conditions presented stronger evaporation at the flame and higher and more uniform heat release. Still, large droplets penetrated the flame, locally inducing regions of negative curvature and continuing to evaporate in the products. The droplet-induced effects disappeared at low SMD and rich conditions, giving rise to a fully gaseous layer at the flame and the highest flame speeds. Finally, insight and data from experiments are used to improve a low-order ignition model towards applications with sprays. Fuel fluctuations are modelled using a stochastic approach, and the extinction criterion of the model is calibrated. The model is then tested for an aviation gas-turbine combustor.

description: Background: Ocular abnormalities have been known to occur in hereditary amyloidotic polyneuropathy since the 1950s. While vitreous opacities and scalloped pupils were described early it has become evident that every component of the eye from the conjunctiva to the retinal vasculature can be involved. Reports from the major centres in Japan, Portugal and Sweden, which primarily treat patients with ATTRV30M, have indicated that with the increased longevity seen in patients treated with liver transplantation the frequency of the more severe eye findings, notably vitreous opacities and subsequent glaucoma, are being detected more frequently. Methods: In an attempt to confirm that the experience was similar in a broader range of locales we performed a survey of ten treatment centres in eight countries to determine the frequency of severe ocular abnormalities (vitreous opacities and glaucoma) in 804 patients with V30M disease and whether there was any relationship to treatment with liver transplantation or the transthyretin stabilizer tafamidis. Results: The data indicate that the frequency of these abnormalities increases with increasing duration of disease. In patients broadly matched for duration of disease the frequency was higher in subjects who had undergone liver transplantation than in those who were untreated. Conclusions: Retrospective surveys are subject to a number of potential biases. In this case, the major potential confounders were defining the time of disease onset and physician bias in choice of therapy, particularly regarding the choice of patients and the time in their course when they should undergo liver transplantation, and when and whether they should receive tafamidis. Nonetheless it appears that the incidence of severe ocular abnormalities in V30M subjects from centres around the world is similar to those found in centres in the areas endemic for this variant protein. The incidence increased with duration of disease regardless of therapy with the highest frequencies seen in patients more than ten years after diagnosis who had undergone liver transplantation.

We have shown that reproduction occuring only once and at a fixed age is the only ingredient needed to explain the catastrophic senescence according the mutation accumulation theory. Several results are presented, some of them with up to $10^8$ fishes, showing how the survival rates in catastrophic senescence are affected by changes in the parameters of the model.

description: A good understanding of the physical properties of explosives is essential for their safe and efficient usage. Numerical simulations have proven to be an excellent tool with which to develop and verify models which describe both ignition and detonation of explosives. The objective of this work is to improve the robustness and accuracy of numerical simulations of both ideal and non-ideal explosives. Much of the complexity of the detonation phenomenon arises due to the finite width of the reaction zone, which causes the properties of the detonation wave to deviate from the predictions of the ZND model. If numerical models are to predict the attributes of the explosive to greater accuracy, then the dynamics of the reaction zone must be adequately resolved. This thesis also reviews the scientific literature in order to contextualise the developments presented here. The approach taken in this thesis is to describe the thermodynamics in the reaction zone as a mixture of reactants and products which exist at pressure and thermal equilibrium. To this end, mechanical equations of state of Mie-Gr\"{u}neisen form are developed with extensions, which allow the temperature to be evaluated appropriately, and the temperature equilibrium condition to be applied robustly. Furthermore the snow plow model is used to capture the effect of porosity. The methodology is applied to predict the velocity of compliantly confined detonation waves. Once reaction rates are calibrated for unconfined detonation velocities, simulations of confined rate sticks and slabs are performed, and the experimental detonation velocities are matched without further parameter alteration, demonstrating the predictive capability of our simulations. We apply the same methodology to both the non-ideal explosive EM120D (an ANE or ammonium nitrate based emulsion) and the comparatively ideal TATB based explosive PBX 9502. Furthermore, this thesis presents a novel methodology to use gauge data from shock initiation experiments to calculate values for the reaction rate. The methodology can be applied to determine rate law parameters without the use of computationally intensive hydrocode simulations. The validity and limitations of this approach are demonstrated through its application to simulated gauge data for an idealized explosive. The resulting rate law is then used in simulations of shock to detonation transition, and confined detonation waves of the TATB based explosive PBX 9502. Comparison of the results with experimental data is favourable.

description: This paper presents a new definition of the community structure of a network, which takes also into account how communities are stratified. In particular, we extend the standard concept of clustering coefficient and provide the local $l$-adjacency clustering coefficient of a node $i$. We define it as an opportunely weighted mean of the clustering coefficients of nodes which are at distance $l$ from $i$. The stratus of the community associated to node $i$ is identified by the distance $l$ from $i$, so that the standard clustering coefficient is a peculiar local $l$-adjacency clustering coefficient at stratus $l=0$. As the distance $l$ varies, the local $l$-adjacency clustering coefficient is then used to infer insights on the community structure of the entire network. Empirical experiments on special business networks are carried out. In particular, the analysis of air traffic networks validate the theoretical proposal and provide supporting arguments on its usefulness.

description: The Casimir force is calculated in the configuration of a spherical lens and a disc of finite radius covered by $Cu$ and $Au$ thin layers which was used in a recent experiment. The correction to the Casimir force due to finiteness of the disc radius is shown to be negligible. Also the corrections are discussed due to the finite conductivity, large-scale and short-scale deviations from the perfect shape of the bounding surfaces and the temperature correction. They were found to be essential when confronting the theoretical results with experimental data. Both Yukawa-type and power-law hypothetical forces are computed which may act in the configuration under consideration due to the exchange of light and/or massless elementary particles between the atoms of the lens and the disc. New constraints on the constants of these forces are determined which follow from the fact that they were not observed within the limits of experimental errors. For Yukawa-type forces the new constraints are up to 30 times stronger than the best ones known up today. A possible improvement of experimental parameters is proposed which gives the possibility to strengthen constraints on Yukawa-type interactions up to $10^4$ times and on power-law interactions up to several hundred times.

description: We consider quantum quenches in the integrable $SU(3)$-invariant spin chain (Lai-Sutherland model) which admits a Bethe ansatz description in terms of two different quasiparticle species, providing a prototypical example of a model solvable by nested Bethe ansatz. We identify infinite families of integrable initial states for which analytic results can be obtained. We show that they include special families of two-site product states which can be related to integrable ``soliton non-preserving'' boundary conditions in an appropriate rotated channel. We present a complete analytical result for the quasiparticle rapidity distribution functions corresponding to the stationary state reached at large times after the quench from the integrable initial states. Our results are obtained within a Quantum Transfer Matrix (QTM) approach, which does not rely on the knowledge of the quasilocal conservation laws or of the overlaps between the initial states and the eigenstates of the Hamiltonian. Furthermore, based on an analogy with previous works, we conjecture analytic expressions for such overlaps: this allows us to employ the Quench Action method to derive a set of integral equations characterizing the quasi-particle distribution functions of the post-quench steady state. We verify that the solution to the latter coincides with our analytic result found using the QTM approach. Finally, we present a direct physical application of our results by providing predictions for the propagation of entanglement after the quench from such integrable states.

We consider a clean superconductor with resonant impurity scattering and a dominant coherent interlayer tunneling. When pancake vortices in adjacent layers are weakly correlated at low T the conductivity increases sharply with B before reaching an extended region of slow linear growth, while at high T it initially decreases and then reaches the same linear regime. For correlated pancakes $σ_q$ increases much more strongly with the applied field.

description: Large project overruns and overtime work have been reported in the software industry, resulting in additional expense for companies and personal issues for developers. The present work aims to provide an overview of studies related to time pressure in software engineering; specifically, existing definitions, possible causes, and metrics relevant to time pressure were collected, and a mapping of the studies to software processes and approaches was performed. Moreover, we synthesize results of existing quantitative studies on the effects of time pressure on software development, and offer practical takeaways for practitioners and researchers, based on empirical evidence. Our search strategy examined 5,414 sources, found through repository searches and snowballing. Applying inclusion and exclusion criteria resulted in the selection of 102 papers, which made relevant contributions related to time pressure in software engineering. The majority of high quality studies report increased productivity and decreased quality under time pressure. Frequent categories of studies focus on quality assurance, cost estimation, and process simulation. It appears that time pressure is usually caused by errors in cost estimation. The effect of time pressure is most often identified during software quality assurance. The majority of empirical studies report increased productivity under time pressure, while the most cost estimation and process simulation models assume that compressing the schedule increases the total needed hours. We also find evidence of the mediating effect of knowledge on the effects of time pressure, and that tight deadlines impact tasks with an algorithmic nature more severely. Future research should better contextualize quantitative studies to account for the existing conflicting results and to provide an understanding of situations when time pressure is either beneficial or harmful.

description: Background: This study assessed the quality of life (QoL) and the implication of time effort of everolimus treatment in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Methods: Adult patients with mRCC were eligible for everolimus treatment after first-line vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors or bevacizumab therapy. The primary end-point, QoL, was assessed by means of the NCCN-FACT FKSI-19 questionnaire. Results: In total, 202 patients (24% of female patients; median age, 71 years) were evaluable for QoL analyses. The median treatment duration was 4.4 months (95% CI, 3.8-5.3) and the median time to progression was 6 months (95% CI, 5.4-7.5). The median FKSI-19 total score remained stable during treatment (52.0 at therapy start, 55.0 at observation end). The median time effort spent on total therapy was 20 hours per patient. Most of the patients stated to have “no limitations,” “a little” or “moderate” limitations in their daily, social, and professional lives. Two months after the start of treatment, 65 patients reported none or a little time burden due to therapy. Conclusions: QoL was maintained during the everolimus therapy and limitations as well as time effort were acceptable for most of the patients. The study supports previous findings on switching mode of action after anti-VEGFR-targeted therapy to a mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor.

description: The temperature dependence of the in-plane, λ_{\parallel}, and interplane, λ_{\perp}, London penetration depth was measured in the metal-free all-organic superconductor β-ET (see title) ($T_c \approx$ 5.2 K). λ_{\parallel} ~T^3 up to 0.5 Tc, a power law previously observed only in materials thought to be p-wave superconductors. λ_{\perp} is larger than the sample dimensions down to the lowest temperatures (0.35 K), implying an anisotropy of λ_{\perp}/λ_{\parallel} ~ 400-800.

description: Figure S1. Aligned reads showing the insertion site of Hf_ERV on chicken chromosome 10. Aligned reads are shown in gray; multicolored “rainbow” reads are soft-clipped. Left clip and right clip sequences match the 5′ and 3′ of the LTR sequence, respectively. Discordant reads are in cyan which are well aligned in this figure (Chr10), while their mate pairs are aligned to Chr1, either to LOC770705 or LOC107052718, both retrovirus related genes, because there is no retrovirus sequence at this target site on chromosome 10 in the reference genome. Altogether, this alignment suggests a retrovirus insertion located between the left and right clips, which contains the 6 bp target site duplication (TSD) sequence. Reads are obtained from BioSample Accession SAMEA104432213 (Pool of Silver Sebright Bantam) and aligned to GalGal6. (DOCX 214 kb)
Effect of shortest path multiplicity on congestion of multiplex networks

description: Shortest paths are representative of discrete geodesic distances in graphs, and many descriptors of networks depend on their counting. In multiplex networks, this counting is radically important to quantify the switch between layers and it has crucial implications in the transportation efficiency and congestion processes. Here we present a mathematical approach to the computation of the joint distribution of distance and multiplicity (degeneration) of shortest paths in multiplex networks, and exploit its relation to congestion processes. The results allow to approximate semi-analytically the onset of congestion in multiplex networks as a function of the congestion of its layers.

description: We bound the Pythagoras number of a real projective subvariety: the smallest positive integer $r$ such that every sum of squares of linear forms in its homogeneous coordinate ring is a sum of at most $r$ squares. Enhancing existing methods, we exhibit three distinct upper bounds involving known invariants. In contrast, our lower bound depends on a new invariant of a projective subvariety called the quadratic persistence. Defined by projecting away from points, this numerical invariant is closely related to the linear syzygies of the variety. In addition, we classify the projective subvarieties of maximal and almost-maximal quadratic persistence, and determine their Pythagoras numbers.

Low energy properties of M-state tunneling systems in metals: New candidates for non-Fermi-liquid systems
Creators: name: Zaránd, G.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: We construct a generalized multiplicative renormalization group transformation to study the low energy dynamics of a heavy particle tunneling among $M$ different positions and interacting with $N_f$ independent conduction electron channels. Using a $1/N_f$-expansion we show that this M-level scales towards a fixed point equivalent to the $N_f$ channel $SU(M) \times SU(N_f)$ Coqblin-Schrieffer model. Solving numerically the scaling equations we find that a realistic M-level system scales close to this fixed point (FP) and its Kondo temperature is in the experimentally observable range $1-10 K$.

description: Abstract We present the construction of the first-order $D=4$, $\mathcal{N}=1$ supergravity action by gauging the Maxwell-Weyl superalgebra. The four-form lagrangian is constructed by using the curvatures of the algebra and the local scale invariance of the action is achieved through the introduction of a compensating scalar field. Finally, we find the generalized Einstein equation with a coordinate dependent cosmological term.

description: We find that intervals between successive drops from a leaky faucet display scale-invariant, long-range anticorrelations characterized by the same exponents of heart beat-to-beat intervals of healthy subjects. This behavior is also confirmed by numerical simulations on lattice and it is faucet-width- and flow-rate-independent. The histogram for the drop intervals is also well described by a Lévy distribution with the same index for both histograms of healthy and diseased subjects. This additional result corroborates the evidence for similarities between leaky faucets and healthy hearts underlying dynamics.

description: The ability to cite software and give credit to its authors and contributors is increasingly important. While the number of online open-source software repositories has grown rapidly over the past few years, few are being properly cited when used due to the difficulty of creating appropriate citations and the lack of automated techniques. This paper presents GitCite, a model for software citation with version control which enables citations to be inferred for any project component based on a small number of explicit citations attached to subdirectories/files, and an implementation that integrates with Git and GitHub. The implementation includes a browser extension and a local executable tool, which enable citations to be added/modified/deleted to software project repositories and managed through functions such as fork/merge/copy.

Are Islamic Banks More ESG Compliant than Their Conventional Counterparts?
Creators: name: Umar, Mohammed
Publisher: name: Manara - Qatar Research Repository
Year: 2025
Subjects: classificationCode: 50
subject: Philosophy and religious studies

description: Sustainability is a well-established concept in Islam, as such. Islamic banks that are modelled on the principles of shariah must conform to the practices of sustainability; one such practice is that of ESG. This paper tests whether the ESG performance of Islamic banks is higher than that of conventional banks. While ESG is important to a modern investor, it would not have much of an effect if the bank was not performing well financially. As such, this paper also tests the impact of ESG compliance on financial performance of Islamic banks in the GCC region. The data is collected from Thomson Reuters Refinitiv; the dataset comprises of Islamic banks and conventional banks from the GCC region with data of these banks collected from 2011-2019. This research applies a pooled data based OLS regression analysis to compare the level of ESG compliance between the two types of financial intermediaries and the same pooled data regression model to test the impact of the ESG combined score on financial performance. The results suggest Islamic banks have an inferior ESG performance to their conventional counterparts, while ESG also negatively impacts service sector institutions such as banks.
