description: A quantum navigation problem concerns the identification of a time-optimal Hamiltonian that realises a required quantum process or task, under the influence of a prevailing `background' Hamiltonian that cannot be manipulated. When the task is to transform one quantum state into another, finding the solution in closed form to the problem is nontrivial even in the case of time-independent Hamiltonians. An elementary solution, based on trigonometric analysis, is found here when the Hilbert space dimension is two. Difficulties arising from generalisations to higher-dimensional systems are discussed.

Thickness of Stellar Disks in Early-type Galaxies

description: We suggest and verify a new photometric method enabling derivation of relative thickness of a galactic disk from two-dimensional surface-brightness distribution of the galaxy in the plane of the sky. The method is applied to images of 45 early-type (S0-Sb) galaxies with known radial exponential or double-exponential (with a flatter outer profile) surface-brightness distributions. The data in the r-band have been retrieved from the SDSS archive. Statistics of the estimated relative thicknesses of the stellar disks of early-type disk galaxies shows the following features. The disks of lenticular and early-type spiral galaxies have similar thicknesses. The presence of a bar results in only a slight marginal increase of the thickness. However, we have found a substantial difference between the thicknesses of the disks with a single-scaled exponential brightness profile and the disks that represent the inner segments of the Type III (antitruncated) profiles. The disks are significantly thicker in the former subsample than in the latter one. This may provide evidence for a surface-brightness distribution of a single-scaled exponential disk to be formed due to viscosity effects acting over the entire period of star formation in the disk.

description: The large-scale magnetic pattern of the quiet sun is dominated by the magnetic network. This network, created by photospheric magnetic fields swept into convective downflows, delineates the boundaries of large scale cells of overturning plasma and exhibits voids in magnetic organization. Such voids include internetwork fields, a mixed-polarity sparse field that populate the inner part of network cells. To single out voids and to quantify their intrinsic pattern a fast circle packing based algorithm is applied to 511 SOHO/MDI high resolution magnetograms acquired during the outstanding solar activity minimum between 23 and 24 cycles. The computed Void Distribution Function shows a quasi-exponential decay behavior in the range 10-60 Mm. The lack of distinct flow scales in such a range corroborates the hypothesis of multi-scale motion flows at the solar surface. In addition to the quasi-exponential decay we have found that the voids reveal departure from a simple exponential decay around 35 Mm.

description: Over the past two decades, poultry has become the most consumed livestock commodity in the world, especially in developing and emerging markets where production prospects have been relatively limited. As demand for poultry products grew in these markets during the period from 2001 to 2021, global imports increased. Poultry is expected to remain the world’s largest imported livestock commodity by volume over the next 10 years. To meet rising demand, a number of countries increased domestic poultry production. Brazil, the United States, the European Union, and Thailand emerged as major poultry exporters. Brazil is the world’s leading poultry exporter and is projected to remain in the top position through 2031. The United States, however, is expected to lose market share throughout the coming decade.

description: We revisit the flux of chameleons (light scalar particles which could play a role in the dark energy phenomenon) produced in the interior of the Sun. Our novel analysis incorporates various important details and new processes that have previously been overlooked, including the impact of the bulk magnetic field profile, as well as Primakoff production of chameleons in the electric fields of electrons and ions. In this paper we consider only the contributions of transverse photons. The production of chameleons from longitudinal electromagnetic excitations will be presented in a dedicated follow-up work. Demanding that the total flux of chameleons does not exceed 3% of the solar luminosity leads to the stringent upper limit on the chameleon-photon conformal coupling $β_γ\lesssim 10^{10}$, assuming that the height of the chameleon potential is set to the dark energy scale $Λ= 2.4$ meV, and independently of other couplings to matter. Although this bound is tighter than current upper limits on $β_γ$ from the CAST helioscope, these limits will have to be reassessed in terms of the updated solar chameleon flux we have computed. We argue that solar chameleons, potentially detectable in next-generation helioscopes such as IAXO, can be used to probe a region of chameleon parameter space that has yet to be covered.

description: Die Reinhard Keiser zugeschriebene 'Markuspassion' ist durch die Aufführungen Johann Sebastian Bachs während seiner Weimarer Jahre und in seiner Leipziger Zeit gut bekannt. Trotz einer vor wenigen Jahren entdeckten handschriftlichen Quelle dieser Passion sind wichtige Fragen bislang unbeantwortet geblieben. Wir kennen nicht die Form des Werkes, die Bach für seine erste Fassung vorlag, und können deshalb nicht mit Sicherheit sagen, welche Sätze bereits vorhanden waren und welche er selbst hinzufügte. Bachs Weimarer Aufführungsstimmen lassen vermuten, dass bestimmte Sätze tatsächlich erst beim Ausschreiben eingefügt wurden, was bedeuten könnte, dass Bach selbst sie komponierte.

description: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks pose an increasingly substantial cybersecurity threat to organizations across the globe. In this paper, we introduce a new deep learning-based technique for detecting DDoS attacks, a paramount cybersecurity challenge with evolving complexity and scale. Specifically, we propose a new dual-space prototypical network that leverages a unique dual-space loss function to enhance detection accuracy for various attack patterns through geometric and angular similarity measures. This approach capitalizes on the strengths of representation learning within the latent space (a lower-dimensional representation of data that captures complex patterns for machine learning analysis), improving the model's adaptability and sensitivity towards varying DDoS attack vectors. Our comprehensive evaluation spans multiple training environments, including offline training, simulated online training, and prototypical network scenarios, to validate the model's robustness under diverse data abundance and scarcity conditions. The Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) with Attention, trained with our dual-space prototypical design over a reduced training set, achieves an average accuracy of 94.85% and an F1-Score of 94.71% across our tests, showcasing its effectiveness in dynamic and constrained real-world scenarios.

description: We propose an all-optical anti-waveguide mechanism for steering, splitting, and cloning of an optical beam beyond the diffraction-limit. We use a spatially inhomogeneous pump beam to create an anti-waveguide structure in a Doppler broadened N -type four-level Raman gain medium for a co-propagating weak probe beam. We show that a transverse modulated index of refraction and gain due to the spatially dependent pump beam hold the keys to steering, splitting and cloning of an optical beam. We have also shown that an additional control field permits the propagation of an optical beam through an otherwise gain medium without diffraction and instability. We further discuss how finesse of the cloned images can be increased by changing the detuning and intensity of the control field.

While Dijkman et al. demonstrated pair-correlation matching of a global neural free energy functional, we argue in favor of local one-body learning for flexible neural modelling of the full Mermin-Evans density functional map. Using spatial localization gives access to accurate neural free energy functionals, including convolutional neural networks, that transcend the training box.

Natural abundances of stable isotopes in lotic food webs yield valuable information about sources of organic matter for consumers and trophic structure. However, interpretation of isotopic information can be challenging in the face of variability in organisms at the base of food webs. Unionid and dreissenid mussels, commonly used as baseline organisms in lakes, are uncommon in many river settings and can have variable diets, thus making them unsuitable as a universal baseline for many river food web studies and often forcing reliance on more common benthic insects for this purpose. Turnover rates of body carbon and nitrogen in insects are relatively rapid (1 to 50 days half-life). These rapid turnover rates in primary consumers can result in considerable temporal variability in δ13C that rivals that of algae (>10‰ range within a site). This suggests that using primary consumers as a surrogate baseline for algae may not circumvent the problem of temporal variability and the resultant mismatch of sources with longer-lived, slow-growing secondary and tertiary consumers. There are several strategies for reducing the influence of these confounding factors when bivalves with a known diet are not present. These include sampling over large spatial scales and correlating δ13C of consumers with the source of interest (e.g. benthic algae), sampling baseline organisms multiple times in the weeks preceding sampling of larger consumers (particularly in response to large changes in discharge) and using algal-detrital separation methods and multiple tracers as much as possible. Incorporating some of these recommendations and further exploring variability at the base of the food web will potentially provide greater insights into consumer–resource coupling in running waters and more robust conclusions about food web structure and energy flow in these dynamic systems.

1.This study compares the effectiveness of using plant species, genera, family or water plant functional group (WPFG) classifications for demonstrating differences in vegetation communities associated with inundation history. 2.Vegetation surveys were undertaken annually for 5 years from 2007–2008 to 2011–2012 at 18 floodplain wetlands. These wetlands are from two geographically separate locations situated along the lower Murray River. Wetlands have different inundation histories and have received varied amounts of environmental water since 2004. All plant species recorded were classified into WPFGs. An inundation classification was determined for each wetland at each survey time based on inundation history and inundation status at the time of survey (wet or dry). 3.This study found that plant species composition at individual wetlands is often unique with few species recorded across multiple wetlands. The use of WPFGs reduced the variability of plant communities between individual wetlands, between the two geographic locations and within inundation classifications. By reducing the variability between samples, broad trends in vegetation responses to different watering histories can be identified. 4.Individual wetlands can develop completely different suites of plant species in response to the same watering regime, particularly when separated over large distances. This variability can reduce the confidence managers have in predicting the plant communities likely to develop in response to prescribed watering regimes. Adaptively applying knowledge gained from monitoring to different wetlands or wetlands in different geographical regions is also difficult if responses are highly variable. 5.This study demonstrates that by classifying wetland vegetation into WPFGs the variability observed between samples can be reduced and the influence of floristic differences between individual wetlands and geographic locations can be negated or lessened. We discuss how the use of WPFGs can assist scientists and managers in demonstrating, predicting and communicating trends in vegetation community responses as a result of different watering regimes. The adoption and application of a consistent approach to the classification of plant species into WPFGs has the potential to enable responses and predictions to watering events to be made across broad spatial scales.
Manipulating the Relaxation Time of Boundary-Dissipative Systems through Bond Dissipation

description: Relaxation time plays a crucial role in describing the relaxation processes of quantum systems. We study the effect of a type of bond dissipation on the relaxation time of boundary dissipative systems and find that it can change the scaling of the relaxation time $T_c\sim L^{z}$ from $z=3$ to a value significantly less than $3$. We further reveal that the reason such bond dissipation can significantly reduce the relaxation time is that it can selectively target specific states. For Anderson localized systems, the scaling behavior of the relaxation time changes from an exponential form to a power-law form as the system size varies. This is because the bond dissipation we consider can not only select specific states but also disrupt the localization properties. Our work reveals that in open systems, one type of dissipation can be used to regulate the effects produced by another type of dissipation.

MDFRC item.

The current monotypic genus Calocoides is distinguished from other Calocidae genera in possessing five un-modified segments on the maxillary palpi and lacking a triangular receptacle on the dorsum of the head. Two new species with these characters are here described, Calocoides pravuspina sp. nov. and Calocoides mynottae sp. nov., from adult, pupae and larvae. Keys to the species are provided for the adult males, females and larvae. An association between two, previously described, larval forms and the males of the two new species is provided and is inferred using features of pharate male pupae and cast larval exuviae. This association is further corroborated by evidence from genetic analyses of three gene fragments.

Over the past two decades, poultry has become the most consumed livestock commodity in the world, especially in developing and emerging markets where production prospects have been relatively limited. As demand for poultry products grew in these markets during the period from 2001 to 2021, global imports increased. Poultry is expected to remain the world’s largest imported livestock commodity by volume over the next 10 years. To meet rising demand, a number of countries increased domestic poultry production. Brazil, the United States, the European Union, and Thailand emerged as major poultry exporters. Brazil is the world’s leading poultry exporter and is projected to remain in the top position through 2031. The United States, however, is expected to lose market share throughout the coming decade.

description: China is the world’s largest textile manufacturer and cotton consumer, but changes in China’s economy are reshaping the geography of its cotton-textile sector. Nearly all of China’s cotton is produced in the country’s Xinjiang Region, while textile manufacturers, the main consumers of cotton, are concentrated in coastal and central regions where cotton production has fallen dramatically. These geographic changes are a factor influencing global trade in cotton and textiles. While China’s imports of cotton are projected to gradually increase over the next decade, China’s dominant position in the cotton market appears to be weakening, with U.S. cotton exports shifting to other Asian countries.
Ein verschollenes Kammermusikwerk Johann Sebastian Bachs

description: Johann Sebastian Bachs 'Orgelsonate' BWV 525 ist die vierte Fassung eines Werkes für Altblockflöte, Oboe und Generalbass (erste Fassung). Diese hatte dieselben Ecksätze wie BWV 525, aber einen anderen Mittelsatz, nämlich eine Variante des 'Largo e dolce' der 'Sonate' A-Dur BWV 1032. Mindestens der erste Satz wurde in der Originaltonart für Orgel transkribiert (zweite Fassung). Später wurde die ganze Sonate nach Es-Dur transponiert und überarbeitet (dritte Fassung). Bei der Zusammenstellung der Orgelsonaten in der Reinschrift P 2 übernahm Bach aus dieser Fassung die Ecksätze, verband sie aber mit einem anderen Mittelsatz zu der endgültigen Form der Sonate.

Steepest Entropy Ascent Model for Far-Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics. Unified Implementation of the Maximum Entropy Production Principle
Creators: name: Beretta, Gian Paolo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: By suitable reformulations, we cast the mathematical frameworks of several well-known different approaches to the description of non-equilibrium dynamics into a unified formulation, which extends to such frameworks the concept of Steepest Entropy Ascent (SEA) dynamics introduced by the present author in previous works on quantum thermodynamics. The present formulation constitutes a generalization also for the quantum thermodynamics framework. In the SEA modeling principle a key role is played by the geometrical metric with respect to which to measure the length of a trajectory in state space. In the near equilibrium limit, the metric tensor is related to the Onsager's generalized resistivity tensor. Therefore, through the identification of a suitable metric field which generalizes the Onsager generalized resistance to the arbitrarily far non-equilibrium domain, most of the existing theories of non-equilibrium thermodynamics can be cast in such a way that the state exhibits a spontaneous tendency to evolve in state space along the path of SEA compatible with the conservation constraints and the boundary conditions. The resulting unified family of SEA dynamical models is intrinsically and strongly consistent with the second law of thermodynamics. Non-negativity of the entropy production is a readily proved general feature of SEA dynamics. In several of the different approaches to non-equilibrium description we consider here, the SEA concept has not been investigated before. We believe it defines the precise meaning and the domain of general validity of the so-called Maximum Entropy Production Principle. It is hoped that the present unifying approach may prove useful in providing a fresh basis for effective, thermodynamically consistent, numerical models and theoretical treatments of irreversible conservative relaxation towards equilibrium from far non-equilibrium states.

description: We compute the Compton profile of Ni using the Local Density Approximation of Density Functional Theory supplemented with electronic correlations treated at different levels. The total/magnetic Compton profiles show not only quantitative but also qualitative significant differences depending weather Hubbard corrections are treated at a mean field +U or in a more sophisticated dynamic way. Our aim is to discuss the range and capability of electronic correlations to modify the kinetic energy along specific spatial directions. The second and the fourth order moments of the difference in the Compton profiles are discussed as a function of the strength of local Coulomb interaction $U$.

description: We present a charge self-consistent density functional theory combined with the ghost-rotationally-invariant slave-boson (DFT+gRISB) formalism for studying correlated materials. This method is applied to SrVO$_3$ and NiO, representing prototypical correlated metals and charge-transfer insulators. For SrVO$_3$, we demonstrate that DFT+gRISB yields an accurate equilibrium volume and effective mass close to experimentally observed values. Regarding NiO, DFT+gRISB enables the simultaneous description of charge transfer and Mott-Hubbard bands, significantly enhancing the accuracy of the original DFT+RISB approach. Furthermore, the calculated equilibrium volume and spectral function reasonably agree with experimental observations.

Uptake of dissolved organic carbon by biofilms provides insights into the potential impact of loss of large woody debris on the functioning of lowland rivers

MDFRC item.

1. Substantial amounts of large woody debris have been removed from lowland rivers worldwide. This large woody debris would have been colonised by biofilms and hence would have formed potentially important sites of chemical transformations (particularly carbon uptake) in these riverine environments. It is possible that one of the reasons that allochthonous production appears to be relatively unimportant to metazoan food webs in some river systems is due to the lack of sites suitable for biofilm growth. 2. This paper explores a key aspect underpinning this idea, the kinetics of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) uptake by bacterial biofilms. Laboratory experiments were used to determine the kinetics of uptake of a natural source of DOC in the presence of a range of densities of biofilm-coated surface at different temperatures. Changes in DOC speciation induced by biofilm carbon uptake were examined using 3-dimensional excitation–emission fluorescence spectroscopy with post hoc PARAFAC deconvolution. 3. The first-order rate constant for carbon uptake increased linearly with amount of biofilm present. The rate of uptake is more sensitive to temperature (increasing approximately logarithmically) in the presence than in the absence of added biofilms. Furthermore, it appears that biofilms preferentially remove amino acid-like components from the DOC. 4. Based on these results, we derive a number of testable hypotheses regarding the impact of the reduction of sites of transformation on the functioning of lowland rivers. Specifically, our results suggest that there are both a critical biofilm-coated surface area density and a critical temperature below which carbon uptake in a river reach will be substantially reduced. 5. This implies that both removal of large woody debris and changes in flood seasonality may have altered the potential for incorporation of allochthonous carbon as a basal food resource for riverine food webs.
