A Matrix Model for Type 0 Strings
Creators: name: Peñalba, Jesús Puente
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A matrix model for type 0 strings is proposed. It consists in making a non-supersymmetric orbifold projection in the Yang-Mills theory and identifying the infrared configurations of the system at infinite coupling with strings. The correct partition function is calculated. Also, the usual spectrum of branes is found. Both type A and B models are constructed. The model in a torus contains all the degrees of freedom and interpolates between the four string theories (IIA, IIB, 0A, 0B) and the M theory as different limits are taken.

description: Future neutron-antineutron ($n$-$\bar n$) oscillation experiments, such as at the European Spallation Source and the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, aim to find first evidence of baryon number violation. We investigate implications of an improved $n$-$\bar n$ oscillation search for baryogenesis via interactions of $n$-$\bar n$ mediators, parameterized by an effective field theory (EFT). We find that even in a minimal EFT setup, there is overlap between the parameter space probed by $n$-$\bar n$ oscillation and the region that can realize the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe. The mass scales of exotic new particles are in the TeV-PeV regime, inaccessible at the LHC or its envisioned upgrades. Given the innumerable high energy theories that can match to, or resemble, the minimal EFT that we discuss, future $n$-$\bar n$ oscillation experiments could probe many viable theories of baryogenesis beyond the reach of other experiments.

title: Using My Body, Using My Labor: Exploring The Relationship Between African American Women And Chronic Hair Pulling Behavior
Creators: name: Clark, Kiana
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2020

description: Although there are many platforms contributing to the conversation surrounding African American hair loss, there is very little work that discusses the relationship shared between eroticism and self-inflicted behaviors. This research study utilized a narrative based approach in order to better understand how African American women have engaged in chronic hair pulling behavior as a satisfactory coping mechanism. Having worked with 3 participants for this study, I coordinated detailed interviews of self- identifying African American women between the ages of 18-35 that have engaged in chronic hair pulling behavior throughout their lives. These participants were selected from various cities throughout the metro-Atlanta areas. Additionally, I also utilized a non probability based sampling method, due to the specialized nature of the study.

description: The ever-increasing demand for broadband Internet access has motivated the further development of the digital subscriber line to the G.fast standard in order to expand its operational band from 106 MHz to 212 MHz. Conventional far-end crosstalk (FEXT) based cancellers falter in the upstream transmission of this emerging G.fast system. In this paper, we propose a novel differential evolution algorithm (DEA) aided turbo channel estimation (CE) and multi-user detection (MUD) scheme for the G.fast upstream including the frequency band up to 212 MHz, which is capable of approaching the optimal Cramer-Rao lower bound of the channel estimate, whilst approaching the optimal maximum likelihood (ML) MUD's performance associated with perfect channel state information, and yet only imposing about 5% of its computational complexity. Explicitly, the turbo concept is exploited by iteratively exchanging information between the continuous value-based DEA assisted channel estimator and the discrete value-based DEA MUD. Our extensive simulations show that 18 dB normalized mean square error gain is attained by the channel estimator and 10 dB signal-to-noise ratio gain can be achieved by the MUD upon exploiting this iteration gain. We also quantify the influence of the CE error, of the copper length and of the impulse noise. Our study demonstrates that the proposed DEA aided turbo CE and MUD scheme is capable of offering near-capacity performance at an affordable complexity for the emerging G.fast systems.

description: Comparative political science has largely ignored the marked cross-national variation in Green party electoral performance. This article uses a unique aggregate dataset of 347 parliamentary elections from 32 countries over the course of 45 years to test competing theories about the causes of Green party success. The findings show that voter demand, institutions and mainstream party strategy all affect the Green vote. Green parties do well in societies with post-materialist conflicts caused by high levels of wealth or the presence of a tangible environmental dispute. The article also shows that regional decentralisation helps Green parties, but electoral systems have little effect on their vote share. Most importantly, it demonstrates that the impact of mainstream party strategy on Green electoral strength is dependent on the age of the Green party. While mainstream parties can undermine young Green parties by adopting the environmental issue, this effect is reversed once the Greens have survived a number of elections. Thus ‘accommodative’ mainstream party strategies eventually boost the Green vote by increasing the salience of the key Green issue.

description: The process $\ee \to \W^+\W^- \to \f_1 \fbar_2 \, \f_3 \fbar_4$ contains charges in the initial, intermediate and final stages. This gives a rich selection of possible QED interconnection effects. Coulomb interaction is the simplest of these, and can thus be used to explore consequences. We study a number of experimental observables, with emphasis on those related to the W momentum distribution. Second-order Coulomb effects are shown to be practically negligible. The limited LEP~2 statistics will not allow detailed tests, so any theory uncertainty will be reflected in the systematic error on the W mass. Currently the uncertainty from this source may be as high as 20~MeV.

description: We consider different options for the search for possible variations of the fundamental constants. We give a brief overview of the results obtained with several methods. We discuss their advantages and disadvantages with respect to simultaneous variations of all constants in both time and space in the range 10^{8}-10^{10} yr. We also suggest a few possibilities for the laboratory search. Particularly, we propose some experiments with the hyperfine structure of hydrogen, deuterium and ytterbium-171 and of some atoms with a small magnetic moment. Other suggestions are for some measurements of the fine structure associated with the ground state. Special attention is paid to the interpretation of the hfs measurements in terms of variations of the fundamental constants.

description: Intense magnetic fields modify the properties of extremely dense matter via complex processes that call for precise measurements in very harsh conditions. This endeavor becomes even more challenging because the generation of mega-gauss fields in a laboratory is far from trivial. This paper presents a unique and compact approach to generate fields above 2 mega-gauss in less than 150 ns, inside a volume close to half a cubic centimeter. Magnetic insulation, keeping plasma ablation close to the wire surface, and mechanical inertia, limiting coil motion throughout the current discharge, enable the generation of intense magnetic fields where the shape of the conductor controls the field topology with exquisite precision and versatility, limiting the need for mapping exactly magnetic fields.
Some Cubic Couplings in Type IIB Supergravity on $AdS_5\times S^5$ and Three-point Functions in SYM_4 at Large N

description: All cubic couplings in type IIB supergravity on $AdS_5\times S^5$ that involve two scalar fields $s^I$ that are mixtures of the five form field strength on $S^5$ and the trace of the graviton on $S^5$ are derived by using the covariant equations of motion and the quadratic action for type IIB supergravity on $AdS_5\times S^5$. All corresponding three-point functions in SYM$_4$ are calculated in the supergravity approximation. It is pointed out that the scalars $s^I$ correspond not to the chiral primary operators in the ${\cal N}=4$ SYM but rather to a proper extension of the operators.

description: Background: Infectious complications after transrectal prostate biopsy are rare. Nevertheless, since these are frequent procedures, the burden of infectious complications is high. Considering the increasing antimicrobial resistance, microbiological confirmation is important to guide antimicrobial therapy. Methods: We reviewed PubMed for original studies providing concurrent urine and blood culture data in symptomatic patients with transrectal biopsy-related infectious complications. We performed a proportions meta-analysis (with MedCalc) and calculated the pooled yield of urine and blood cultures and the pooled discordance rate between urine and blood cultures. Results: Our review identified 41 studies, involving 852 patients with infectious complications after transrectal prostate biopsy and sufficient data to calculate discordance. The pooled yield of urine cultures was 64.6% (95% CI: 56.2–72.3%, I2 83%), the pooled yield of blood cultures was 43% (95% CI: 36.5–49.7%, I2 74%) and the pooled discordance rate was 14% (95% CI: 10.6–17.8%, I2 53%). In subgroup analyses the pooled discordance was; 19.6% (95% CI: 11.8–28.9%, I2 31%) in 113 patients presenting within 2 calendar days after the biopsy and 11.2% (95% CI: 4.5–20%, I2 47%) in 143 patients presenting with fever and symptoms of lower urinary tract symptoms. The statistical and methodological heterogeneity of included studies was high. Conclusion: Obtaining blood cultures is reasonable in all patients presenting with systemic symptoms suggestive of infection after a transrectal prostate biopsy. Blood cultures can provide additional microbiological data in about 1 of 7 patients with post-biopsy infectious complications. Prospective studies are needed to validate these results.
Diverse Temporal Properties of GRB Afterglow

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: The detection of delayed X-ray, optical and radio emission, "afterglow", associated with $γ$-ray bursts (GRBs) is consistent with fireball models, where the emission are produced by relativistic expanding blast wave, driven by expanding fireball at cosmogical distances. The emission mechanisms of GRB afterglow have been discussed by many authors and synchrotron radiation is believed to be the main mechanism. The observations show that the optical light curves of two observed gamma-ray bursts, GRB970228 and GRB GRB970508, can be described by a simple power law, which seems to support the synchrotron radiation explanation. However, here we shall show that under some circumstances, the inverse Compton scattering (ICS) may play an important role in emission spectrum and this may influence the temporal properties of GRB afterglow. We expect that the light curves of GRB afterglow may consist of multi-components, which depends on the fireball parameters.

description: We study the time-dependent occupation of an impurity state hybridized with a continuum of extended or localized states. Of particular interest is the return probability, which gives the long-time limit of the average impurity occupation. In the extended case, the return probability is zero unless there are bound states of the impurity and continuum. We present exact expressions for the return probability of an impurity state coupled to a lattice, and show that the existence of bound states depends on the dimension of the lattice. In a disordered lattice with localized eigenstates, the finite extent of the eigenstates results in a non-zero return probability. We investigate different parameter regimes numerically by exact diagonalization, and show that the return probability can serve as a measure of the localization length in the regime of weak hybridization and disorder. Possible experimental realizations with ultracold atoms are discussed.

description: In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the normalized weighted empirical occupation measures of a diffusion process on a compact manifold which is killed at a smooth rate and then regenerated at a random location, distributed according to the weighted empirical occupation measure. We show that the weighted occupation measures almost surely comprise an asymptotic pseudo-trajectory for a certain deterministic measure-valued semiflow, after suitably rescaling the time, and that with probability one they converge to the quasi-stationary distribution of the killed diffusion. These results provide theoretical justification for a scalable quasi-stationary Monte Carlo method for sampling from Bayesian posterior distributions.

description: Energy injected into the Cosmic Microwave Background at redshifts z<10^6 will distort its spectrum permanently. In this paper we discuss the distortion caused by annihilations of relic particles. We use the observational bounds on deviations from a Planck spectrum to constrain a combination of annihilation cross section, mass, and abundance. For particles with (s-wave) annihilation cross section, =σ_0, the bound is f[(σ_0/6e-27cm^3/s)(Ω_{X\bar{X}}h^2)^2]/(m_X/MeV)<0.2, where m_X is the particle mass, Ω_{X\bar{X}} is the fraction of the critical density the particle and its antiparticle contribute if they survive to the present time, h=H_0/(100km/s/Mpc), H_0 is the Hubble constant, and f is the fraction of the annihilation energy that interacts electromagnetically. We also compute the less stringent limits for p-wave annihilation. We update other bounds on residual annihilations and compare them to our CMB bound.

A new approach for sizing trials with composite binary endpoints using anticipated marginal values and accounting for the correlation between components
Creators: name: Roig, Marta Bofill

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Applications (stat.AP)

description: Composite binary endpoints are increasingly used as primary endpoints in clinical trials. When designing a trial, it is crucial to determine the appropriate sample size for testing the statistical differences between treatment groups for the primary endpoint. As shown in this work, when using a composite binary endpoint to size a trial, one needs to specify the event rates and the effect sizes of the composite components as well as the correlation between them. In practice, the marginal parameters of the components can be obtained from previous studies or pilot trials, however, the correlation is often not previously reported and thus usually unknown. We first show that the sample size for composite binary endpoints is strongly dependent on the correlation and, second, that slight deviations in the prior information on the marginal parameters may result in underpowered trials for achieving the study objectives at a pre-specified significance level. We propose a general strategy for calculating the required sample size when the correlation is not specified, and accounting for uncertainty in the marginal parameter values. We present the web platform CompARE to characterize composite endpoints and to calculate the sample size just as we propose in this paper. We evaluate the performance of the proposal with a simulation study, and illustrate it by means of a real case study using CompARE.

description: In this paper we study the N=1 supersymmetric field theories realized on the world-volume of type IIB D3-branes sitting at orientifolds of non-orbifold singularities (conifold and generalizations). Several chiral models belong to this family of theories. These field theories have a T-dual realization in terms of type IIA configurations of relatively rotated NS fivebranes, D4-branes and orientifold six-planes, with a compact $x^6$ direction, along which the D4-branes have finite extent. We compute the spectrum on the D3-branes directly in the type IIB picture and match the resulting field theories with those obtained in the type IIA setup, thus providing a non-trivial check of this T-duality. Since the usual techniques to compute the spectrum of the model and check the cancellation of tadpoles, cannot be applied to the case orientifolds of non-orbifold singularities, we use a different approach, and construct the models by partially blowing-up orientifolds of C^3/(Z_2 x Z_2) and C^3/(Z_2 x Z_3) orbifolds.

The evolution of GRB remnants

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The detection of the delayed emission in X-ray, optical and radio band, i.e. the afterglow of $γ$-ray bursts (GRBs), suggestes that the sources of GRBs are likely to be at cosmological distances. Here we explore the interaction of a relativistic shell with a uniform interstellar medium (ISM) and obtain the exact solution of the evolution of $γ$-ray burst remnants, including the radiative losses. We show that in general the evolution of bulk Lorentz factor $γ$ satisfies $γ\propto t^{-α_{t}}$ when $γ\gg 1$, here $α_{t}$ is mainly in the range $9/22 \sim 3/8$, the latter corresponds to adiabatic expansion. So it is clear that adiabatic expansion is a good approximation even when radiative loss is considered. However, in fact, $α_{t}$ is slightly larger than 3/8, which may have some effects on a detailed data analysis. Synchrotron-self-absorption is also calculated and it is demonstrated that the radio emission may become optically thin during the afterglow. Our solution can also apply to the nonrelativistic case ($γ\sim 1$), at that time the observed flux decrease more rapidly than that in the relativistic case.

Fock majorization in bosonic quantum channels with a passive environment
Creators: name: Jabbour, Michael G.
name: Cerf, Nicolas J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We introduce a class of quantum channels called passive-environment bosonic channels. These channels are relevant from a quantum thermodynamical viewpoint because they correspond to the energy-preserving linear coupling of a bosonic system with a bosonic environment that is in a passive state (no energy can be extracted from it by using a unitary transformation) followed by discarding the environment. The Fock-majorization relation defined in [New J. Phys. 18, 073047 (2016)] happens to be especially useful in this context as, unlike regular majorization, it connects the disorder of a state together with its energy. Our main result here is the preservation of Fock majorization across all passive-environment bosonic channels. This implies a similar preservation property for regular majorization over the set of passive states, and it also extends to passive-environment channels whose Stinespring dilation involves an active Gaussian unitary. Beyond bosonic systems, the introduced class of passive environment operations naturally generalizes thermal operations and is expected to provide new insights into the thermodynamics of quantum systems.

Agroforestry

description: Agricultural lands in Europe are associated to intensive farming systems that reduce the delivery of ecosystem services (ES). Agroforestry (AF) should be strongly supported by the CAP as a sustainable land management option that provides market and non-market goods and services that address societal goals. Governments need to develop policies and actions that foster AF within an EU policy framework. However, AF is not extensively known by farmers in their broad FAO definition; the deliberate integration of woody vegetation (trees and/or shrubs) as an upper storey on land, with pasture (animals consumed) or an agricultural crop in the lower storey. Woody species can be evenly/unevenly distributed or be located on the border of plots, providing forestry/agricultural products or other ES (i.e. provisioning, regulating or cultural). AF can take place at a range of scales (e.g. plot, farm and landscape). At farm and landscape scale it can be implemented in systems that are able to diversify production (e.g. food, forage, timber and fuelwood), provide ES (e.g. climate regulation and biodiversity enhancement), thus increasing both resilience and profitability. Silvopasture and silvoarable are the main subjacent AF practices. In order to facilitate AF recognition and implementation, considering their important role in biodiversity, water issues and pollination, we have extended “riparian buffer strip” category to include any kind of hedgerows and windbreaks.

description: We study the three-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity for strong applied magnetic fields varying between the second and third critical fields. In this regime, it is known from physics that superconductivity should be essentially restricted to a thin layer along the boundary of the sample. This leads to the introduction of a Ginzburg-Landau model on a half-space. We prove that the non-linear Ginzburg-Landau energy on the half-space with constant magnetic field is a decreasing function of the angle $ν$ that the magnetic field makes with the boundary. In the case when the magnetic field is tangent to the boundary ($ν=0$), we show that the energy is determined to leading order by the minimization of a simplified 1D functional in the direction perpendicular to the boundary. We also study the geometric behavior of the order parameter near the surface of the sample by constructing formal solutions with lattice properties.

Macro-Economic Evidence on Crime and Income Inequality

Subjects: Economics

description: The three essays of this thesis look at the development of crime and income inequality from different perspectives. The first essay finds that democracies with unequal incomes lower social transfers for 20 OECD countries between 1860 and 2013. Although the economic literature has neglected the role of alcohol in determining crime the second essay develops a simple model in which criminality is jointly determined by alcohol and deterrence. Both are found to be significant determinants of homicide. The third essay for 17 OECD countries over the last two centuries shows that inequality is a strong driver of both violent and property crime.

description: In real magnets the tendency towards ferromagnetism, promoted by exchange coupling, is usually frustrated by dipolar interaction. As a result, the uniformly ordered phase is replaced by modulated (multi-domain) phases, characterized by different order parameters rather than the global magnetization. The transitions occurring within those modulated phases and towards the disordered phase are generally not of second-order type. Nevertheless, strong experimental evidence indicates that a standard critical behavior is recovered when comparatively small fields are applied that stabilize the uniform phase. The resulting power laws are observed with respect to a putative critical point that falls in the portion of the phase diagram occupied by modulated phases, in line with an avoided-criticality scenario. Here we propose a generalization of the scaling hypothesis for ferromagnets, which explains this observation assuming that the dipolar interaction acts as a relevant field, in the sense of renormalization group.

description: We present a method for calculating large numbers of power spectra C_l and P(k) that accelerates CMBfast by a factor around 10^3 without appreciable loss of accuracy, then apply it to constrain 11 cosmological parameters from current Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and Large Scale Structure (LSS) data. While the CMB alone still suffers from several degeneracies, allowing, e.g., closed models with strong tilt and tensor contributions, the shape of the real space power spectrum of galaxies from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue Redshift (PSCz) survey breaks these degeneracies and helps place strong constraints on most parameters. At 95% confidence, the combined CMB and LSS data imply a baryon density 0.020 < omega_b < 0.037, dark matter density 0.10 < omega_d < 0.32 with a neutrino fraction f_nu < 38%, vacuum density Omega_Lambda < 0.76, curvature -0.19 < Omega_k < 0.10, scalar tilt 0.86 < n_s < 1.16 and reionization optical depth tau < 0.44. These joint constraints are quite robust, changing little when we impose priors on the Hubble parameter, tilt, flatness, gravity waves or reionization. Adding nucleosynthesis and neutrino priors on the other hand tightens parameters considerably, requiring Omega_Lambda > 0.49 and a red-tilt. The analysis allows a number of consistency tests to be made, all of which pass. At the 95% level, the flat scalar ``concordance model'' with Omega_Lambda=0.62, omega_d=0.13, omega_b=0.02, f_nu~0, n_s=0.9, tau=0.1, h=0.63 is consistent with external constraints. The inferred PSCz bias b~1.2 agrees with the value estimated independently from redshift space distortions. The inferred cosmological constant value agrees with the one independently derived from SN 1a studies. Cosmology seems to be on the right track.

description: Quasi-stationary distributions have many applications in diverse research fields. We develop a bootstrap-based maximum likelihood (BML) method to deal with quasi-stationary distributions in statistical inference. To efficiently implement a bootstrap procedure that can handle the dependence among observations and speed up the computation, a novel block bootstrap algorithm is proposed to accommodate parallel bootstrap. In particular, we select a suitable block length for use with the parallel bootstrap. The estimation error is investigated to show its convergence. The proposed BML is shown to be asymptotically unbiased. Some numerical studies are given to examine the performance of the new algorithm. The advantages are evidenced through a comparison with some competitors and some examples are analysed for illustration.

description: This note is devoted to the calculation of the two-loop $O(G_F {M_H}^2)$ radiative corrections to the Higgs decay width $H \to γγ$ for large values of the Higgs boson mass $M_H$ within the Minimal Standard Model. The use of the Equivalence Theorem makes it possible to reduce the problem to the consideration of the physical Higgs boson field and the Goldstone bosons $w^{+},w^{-},z$. We present analytical results for the various two- and three-particle absorptive parts of two-loop contributions, using dispersive techniques, analytic results for all but one of the dispersive contributions. The typical size of the correction is $\sim ~30 $ percent for a Higgs boson mass of order $1~TeV$.

description: Multi-trace scalar operators in the (0,k,0) representations of SU(4)_R share many properties with their single-trace analogs. These multi-trace operators are primary fields of short representations of the N=4 superconformal group. Thus, they have protected dimensions. We show that two- and three-point correlator functions of such operators do not receive radiative corrections at order g^2 in perturbation theory for an arbitrary gauge group.

description: This paper investigates the institutional and socioeconomic determinants of the location of asylum seekers in the case of Italy, where a complex multilevel system of hosting has been established to address the pressure of arrivals. In this system, asylum seekers are allocated to local communities through periodic calls (i.e., with a bottom-up procedure where communities bid for them). This results in an interesting circumstance in which local attitudes can be studied in relation to cultural and political values and economic opportunities. The econometric analysis explores the economic, social and political drivers of such redistribution, finding that social capital is negatively related to the willingness to host asylum seekers, probably due to the desire to maintain cohesive communities.
The GeV emission of PSR B1259-63 during its last three periastron passages observed by Fermi-LAT

description: PSR B1259-63 is a $γ$-ray emitting high mass X-ray binary system, in which the compact object is a millisecond pulsar. The system has an orbital period of 1236.7 d and shows peculiar $γ$-ray flares when the neutron star moves out of the stellar disk of the companion star. The $γ$-ray flare events were firstly discovered by using Fermi-LAT around the 2010 periastron passage, which was repeated for the 2014 and 2017 periastron passages. We analyze the Fermi-LAT data for all the three periastron passages and found that in each flare the energy spectrum can be represented well by a simple power law. The $γ$-ray light curves show that in 2010 and 2014 after each periastron there are two main flares, but in 2017 there are four flares including one precursor about 10 d after the periastron passage. The first main flares in 2010 and 2014 are located at around 35 d after the periastron passage, and the main flare in 2014 is delayed by roughly 1.7 d with respect to that in 2010. In the 2017 flare, the source shows a precursor about 10 d after the periastron passage, but the following two flares become weaker and lag behind those in 2010 by roughly 5 d. The strongest flares in 2017 occurred 58 d and 70 d after the periastron passage. These results challenge the previous models.

description: Spatial correlations - bubbles, domain walls, etc. - can best be studied by concentrating on the degrees of freedom most relevant to the problem. For the finite temperature confinement transition, I integrate out all gauge degrees of freedom, leaving only spins - Ising or Potts - related to the Wilson line. I present problems that arise in the course of this transformation and some results for the effective spin action.

description: Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are abundant and widely distributed in the United States. They damage crops and pastures, predate livestock and sensitive species, impact ecosystem functions, and damage personal property. To address these issues, some states in the United States are seeking complete elimination. A frequently asked question by stakeholders is: “What portion of the population needs to be removed annually to reach elimination?” The number 70% is widely touted as the answer. There is little scientific evidence to support that this percent annual removal would be needed to achieve elimination, yet 70% has now become a standard measure of management success, and in some cases the rationale for support or lack thereof for operational management programs. For example, some stakeholders believe that if a wild pig elimination program does not remove 70% of the population annually across the state, then it is not being effective. These strong and widespread anecdotal beliefs may actually impede management progress. Herein, we describe the likely origin of the 70% parameter and the science to support why this metric measuring success of an elimination program is inaccurate.

Sharing and Locating Research Data in Humanities and Social Science Studies
Creators: name: Jiang, Tianji

description: Sharing and reusing data can effectively reduce redundant efforts in data collection. It also enhances the efficiency of scientific research investments by preventing the reinvention of the wheel. Building a sustainable data-reuse process and culture requires frameworks that include policies, standards, roles, and responsibilities, all of which must address the diverse needs of data providers, curators, and (re)users alike. A critical step in the data sharing and (re)use cycle involves researchers depositing their research data into data-sharing infrastructures, keeping their data in a sharable and usable form, making other researchers aware of their data, and identifying data that are (re)usable for their needs. In this session, I aim to introduce some ideas and techniques for preparing research data for sharing. I will also introduce 2 to 3 data repositories ideal for researchers depositing their data and seeking (re)usable data for their studies. Additionally, I will offer several tips and strategies for identifying and utilizing (re)usable data effectively. The session is structured to last approximately 50 minutes, comprising a 40-minute presentation followed by a 10-minute question-and-answer segment. 

This presentation was part of the UC Love Data Week 2025 program (https://uc-love-data-week.github.io).
