description: The ability to measure precise and accurate stellar effective temperatures ($T_{\rm{eff}}$) and surface gravities ($\log(g)$) is essential in determining accurate and precise abundances of chemical elements in stars. Measuring $\log(g)$ from isochrones fitted to colour-magnitude diagrams of open clusters is significantly more accurate and precise compared to spectroscopic $\log(g)$. By determining the ranges of ages, metallicity, and extinction of isochrones that fit the colour-magnitude diagram, we constructed a joint probability distribution of $T_{\rm{eff}}$ and $\log(g)$. The joint photometric probability shows the complex correlations between $T_{\rm{eff}}$ and $\log(g)$, which depend on the evolutionary stage of the star. We show that by using this photometric prior while fitting spectra, we can acquire more precise spectroscopic stellar parameters and abundances of chemical elements. This reveals higher-order abundance trends in open clusters like traces of atomic diffusion. We used photometry and astrometry provided by the \textit{Gaia} DR3 catalogue, Padova isochrones, and Galactic Archaeology with HERMES (GALAH) DR4 spectra. We analysed the spectra of 1979 stars in nine open clusters, using MCMC to fit the spectroscopic abundances of 26 elements, $T_{\rm{eff}}$, $\log(g)$, $v_{\rm{mic}}$, and $v_{\rm{broad}}$. We found that using photometric priors improves the accuracy of abundances and $\log(g)$, which enables us to view higher-order trends of abundances caused by atomic diffusion in M67 and Ruprecht 147.

description: SUP-46 localization to stress granules may depend on the MYEF2 motif. (A) TIAR-2 and CGH-1 colocalize in heat stress-induced granules in embryos. Strain expresses LAP::TIAR-2. CGH-1 was detected with an anti-CGH-1 antibody, and WGA lectin marks the eggshell. (B) Following heat stress SUP-46 colocalizes with TIAR-2 in granules, confirming SG localization of SUP-46. In the bottom row overlay image, the box in the upper right corner shows enlarged SG. Strain expresses LAP::TIAR-2 and SUP-46::FLAG::mCherry. (C) GFP-tagged SUP-46 accumulates in SG (top row), which is not seen with GFP alone (second row) or with GFP-tagged tubulin (cytoplasmic protein), histone H2B (nuclear protein), or EGG-1 (membrane protein) (rows 3–5). Laser intensity and gain is identical within rows. (D) Immunoblot of strains deleted for different regions of the SUP-46 protein and probed with anti-GFP antibody. γ-tubulin was used as a loading control, and molecular weight markers (kD) are indicated on the left side of the blot. Arrowheads on the right-hand side of bands indicate the GFP-tagged SUP-46 deletion proteins. (E) Localization of SUP-46 to SG may require the MYEF2 motif. Cartoons on the left indicate regions deleted (jointed lines) in the GFP-tagged proteins. The relative GFP accumulation in SG is indicated from none (“-”) to highly accumulated (“++++”). All strains were generated by MosSCI, and images are single confocal sections of live 2–4 cell embryos, with laser intensity and gain identical within each row. (A–C, E) Scale bars represent 15 μm.

description: The field of medical image analysis has been revolutionized by deep learning, yet current artificial intelligence (AI) systems still fall short of human expert capabilities in complex scenarios. This dissertation addresses three fundamental challenges in bridging this gap: developing robust and accurate model architectures for medical imaging, addressing data heterogeneity and learning from limited datasets, and integrating structured domain knowledge into AI systems. To address these challenges, we first advance model architectures through novel attention mechanisms and shape-aware learning frameworks that effectively capture multi-scale features while incorporating anatomical priors, demonstrating superior performance across diverse imaging modalities. We address data challenges through automated augmentation strategies and a universal learning paradigm that enables knowledge transfer across different anatomical structures and imaging protocols, significantly improving the model's ability to handle diverse tasks. For knowledge integration, we develop explainable frameworks that incorporate structured domain expertise into the learning process, enabling interpretable decision-making that aligns with expert reasoning patterns. Comprehensive experiments across multiple imaging modalities and anatomical targets demonstrate the effectiveness of our approaches, consistently outperforming existing methods while providing interpretable results. This work represents significant progress toward more capable AI systems that can better support medical image analysis through improved accuracy, efficiency, and explainability, while establishing a foundation for future developments in universal medical understanding, integrated vision-language systems for automated diagnosis, and holistic analysis through multi-modal data integration.

description: Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar, enabled by millimeter-wave virtual MIMO techniques, provides great promises to the high-resolution automotive sensing and target detection in unmanned ground/aerial vehicles (UGA/UAV). As a long-established problem, however, existing subspace methods suffer from either high complexity or low accuracy. In this work, we propose two efficient methods, to accomplish fast subspace computation and accurate angle of arrival (AoA) acquisition. By leveraging randomized low-rank approximation, our fast multiple signal classification (MUSIC) methods, relying on random sampling and projection techniques, substantially accelerate the subspace estimation by orders of magnitude. Moreover, we establish the theoretical bounds of our proposed methods, which ensure the accuracy of the approximated pseudo-spectrum. As demonstrated, the pseudo-spectrum acquired by our fast-MUSIC would be highly precise; and the estimated AoA is almost as accurate as standard MUSIC. In contrast, our new methods are tremendously faster than standard MUSIC. Thus, our fast-MUSIC enables the high-resolution real-time environmental sensing with massive MIMO radars, which has great potential in the emerging unmanned systems.

Factors Determining Variability Time in Active Galactic Nucleus Jets

Publisher: name: arXiv

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

description: The relationship between observed variability time and emission region geometry is explored for the case of emission by relativistic jets. The approximate formula for the jet-frame size of the emission region, $R'=DcΔt_{\rm obs}$ is shown to lead to large systematic errors when used together with observed luminosity and assumed or estimated Doppler factor $D$ to estimate the jet-frame photon energy density. These results have implications for AGN models in which low-energy photons are targets for interaction of high energy particles and photons, e.g. synchrotron-self Compton models and hadronic blazar models, as well as models of intra-day variable sources in which the photon energy density imposes a brightness temperature limit through Compton scattering. The actual relationship between emission region geometry and observed variability is discussed for a variety of geometries including cylinders, spheroids, bent, helical and conical jet structures, and intrinsic variability models including shock excitation. The effects of time delays due to finite particle acceleration and radiation time scales are also discussed.

description: Contextuality is often referred to as a generalization of non-locality. In this work, using the hypergraph approach for contextuality we show how to associate a contextual scenario to a general k-partite non local game, and consider the reverse direction: how and when is it possible to represent a general contextuality scenario as a non local game. Using the notion of conditional contextuality, we show that it is possible to embed any contextual scenario in a two players non local game. We also discuss different equivalences of contextuality scenarios and show that the construction used in the proof is not optimal by giving a simpler bipartite non local game when the contextual scenario is a graph instead of a general hypergraph.

description: Warped compactifications with significant warping provide one of the few known mechanisms for naturally generating large hierarchies of physical scales. We demonstrate that this mechanism is realizable in string theory, and give examples involving orientifold compactifications of IIB string theory and F-theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau four-folds. In each case, the hierarchy of scales is fixed by a choice of RR and NS fluxes in the compact manifold. Our solutions involve compactifications of the Klebanov-Strassler gravity dual to a confining N=1 supersymmetric gauge theory,and the hierarchy reflects the small scale of chiral symmetry breaking in the dual gauge theory.

Picard-Lefschetz decomposition and Cheshire Cat resurgence in 3D $\mathcal{N}=2$ field theories

description: We study three dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric abelian gauge theories with various matter contents living on a squashed sphere. In particular we focus on two problems: firstly we perform a Picard-Lefschetz decomposition of the localised path integral but, due to the absence of a topological theta angle in three dimensions, we find that steepest descent cycles do not permit us to distinguish between contributions to the path-integral coming from (would-be) different topological sectors, for example a vortex from a vortex/anti-vortex. The second problem we analyse is the truncation of all perturbative expansions. Although the partition function can be written as a transseries expansion of perturbative plus non-perturbative terms, due to the supersymmetric nature of the observable studied we have that each perturbative expansion around trivial and non-trivial saddles truncates suggesting that normal resurgence analysis cannot be directly applied. The first problem is solved by complexifying the squashing parameter, which can be thought of as introducing a chemical potential for the global $U(1)$ rotation symmetry, or equivalently an omega deformation. This effectively introduces a hidden "topological angle" into the theory and the path integral can be now decomposed into a sum over different topological sectors via Picard-Lefschetz theory. The second problem is solved by deforming the matter content making manifest the Cheshire Cat resurgence structure of the supersymmetric theory, allowing us to reconstruct non-perturbative information from perturbative data even when these do truncate.

description: Far-field slit-diffraction of circular optical-vortex (OV) beams is efficient for measurement of the topological charge (TC) magnitude but does not reveal its sign. We show that this is because in the common diffraction schemes the diffraction plane coincides with the incident OV waist plane. With explicit involvement of the incident beam spherical wavefront and based on the examples of Laguerre-Gaussian modes we show that the far-field profile possesses an asymmetry depending on the wavefront curvature and the TC sign. These features enable simple and efficient ways for the simultaneous diagnostics of the TC magnitude and sign, which can be useful in many OV applications, including the OV-assisted metrology and information processing.

description: While nerve growth factor’s (NGF) role in supporting axon development has been previously explored, there are still many unanswered questions when it comes to its role in axonal degeneration. The following study explores NGF signaling in axonal degeneration. Neurons transmit electrical signals throughout the body through long projections called axons that form synapses at the axon terminal.
description: Neurodegeneration occurs when axons break down and disrupt synapse formation. Axon breakdown can be caused by a variety of stressors, ranging from inflammation to physical damage. In this study, we explore the role of NGF (an axon pro-survival neurotrophin) on axon growth and maintenance. We explore the reintroduction of NGF after deprivation on axon growth and maintenance. To test this, we performed a series of axotomy assays to NGF deprived cells, reintroducing NGF at specific points of the assay.
description: We found that NGF unexpectedly accelerated degeneration when reintroduced permanently, as well as when reintroduced for a brief period and after axotomy. These findings give insight for potential therapeutic interventions. They prompt further exploration of techniques to alter survival factors for maintenance of axons in disease.

description: New York City boasts one of the world's largest urban areas and metropolitan populations. These conditions present enormous challenges to the distribution of food products for New York City residents. The distribution system that has emerged in response to these challenges is unique: specialty store food sales, in particular, are more important in New York than in any other state. Yet very few studies have attempted to examine or document the system's uniqueness. This paper reports on a study conducted of one especially distinctive aspect of New York's food distribution landscape, the Korean Grocery Store. Ninety Korean food store owners were personally interviewed, by trained interviewers fluent in Korean, regarding their perceptions, standard retail operating practices and performance measures. The Korean store owners/operators reported a number of practices and performance indicators that are substantially different from the similar measures in other food retailing channels. They rely, for example, on "traditional," often Korean controlled, distribution networks to source their products from wholesale markets in lieu of the standardized transportation systems typical of most convenience stores and supermarkets. Further, the sales mix, business motivations, merchandising practices and labor cost structures of most Korean stores depart significantly from that of other grocery stores. At the same time, one of the significant findings of this study is that Korean retail operations have evolved considerably since prior research was conducted nearly ten years ago. No longer simply "green grocers," they now can be more properly described as small, convenience-oriented grocery stores. Their stores have been adapted to more closely meet the needs of the lives of their urban customers: store hours have been increased, new grocery lines have been added and fresh food offerings have been expanded from simply fresh fruits and vegetables to a wide array of bakery items, meats and fully prepared foods.
A metallicity-flattening relation for dwarf elliptical galaxies

description: It is shown that bright cluster dwarf ellipticals follow a relation between metallicity and apparent flattening. Rounder dwarfs tend to be more metal-rich. The evidence is based on colour as well as spectroscopic line-strength data from the literature. The large scatter of dEs around the mean metallicity-luminosity relation, usually ascribed to large observational errors, turns out to be an ellipticity effect. In the magnitude range $-14 \ga M_B \ga -18$ the metallicity of dEs depends more strongly on ellipticity than luminosity. A possible explanation is that galaxies with masses around $10^{9}$ $M_{\odot}$ suffered a partial blowout of metal-enriched gas along their minor axis, rendering ellipticity a critical parameter for metallicity (De Young & Heckman 1994).

description: Electric utilities throughout the Nation are experimenting with strategies to reduce total electricity consumption or to alter the timing of electrical power use by their customers. This report focuses on one such strategy, time-of-use (TaU) electric rates, and the likely effect of this pricing option on the New York dairy sector. The purpose of the study is to assess the change in farm electrical energy costs when power is sold to dairymen at higher rates for periods of peak power demand and at substantially lower rates for off-peak periods. This study is based on the results derived from a farm-level, computer decision model which calculates farm energy consumption by major end uses--such as milk cooling and feeding--and by time of day. The model differentiates power use on farms depending on the type of electricai equipment and the timing of its use. Results show that, in the case of the TaU rates now being implemented by Niagara Mohawk, moving from flat rates to TOU rates has only marginal effects on electric energy costs incurred by dairy farmers. For the 28 representative farm businesses considered, larger farms have the most significant cost savings under the new rate Gust over 12 percent), with smaller dairy operations approximately breaking even when electric power is purchased at Tau rates. These results also show that initial concerns over abrupt increases in power costs under new energy pricing schemes were misplaced. While power costs clearly increase during the summer and winter when rates increase to reflect peak power use, dairy farmers receive a concomitant windfall gain when purchasing power at relatively lower rates off-peak. The authors are Professor, Associate Professor, former Research Support Specialist, and former Graduate Research Assistant, respectively, in the Department of Agricultural Economics, Cornell University. This report is based on research supported by Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation.

description: In this paper we survey, in an elementary fashion, some of the questions that arise when one considers how entanglement and relativity are related via the notion of non-locality. We begin by reviewing the role of entangled states in Bell inequality violation and question whether the associated notions of non-locality lead to problems with relativity. The use of entanglement and wavefunction collapse in Einstein's famous incompleteness argument is then considered, before we go on to see how the issue of non-locality is transformed if one considers quantum mechanics without collapse to be a complete theory, as in the Everett interpretation. The opportunity is taken to consider whether teleportation and dense coding might constitute a source of non-locality within the Everett interpretation.

description: Ordering of the geometrically frustrated two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a pyrochlore slab is studied by Monte Carlo simulations. The model is expected to serve as a reference system of SrCrGaO compound studied extensively. In sharp contrast to the kagomé Heisenberg antiferromagnet, the model exhibits locally non-coplanar spin structures at low temperatures, bearing nontrivial chiral degrees of freedom. We find that under certain conditions the model exhibits a novel Kosterlitz-Thouless-type transition at a finite temperature associated with these chiral degrees of freedom. Implications to experiments are discussed.

description: BACKGROUND: Previous studies have established that sex workers experience discrimination and stigma within healthcare settings, limiting their access and receipt of culturally safe care. These barriers impact sex workers' ability and desire to routinely engage with the healthcare system. Community empowerment interventions that are culturally safe offer an effective strategy to improve access to services and health outcomes for sex workers. OBJECTIVES: This project was designed to inform the development of community empowerment interventions for sex workers by understanding their self-management, health promotion, and harm reduction needs. METHODS: In-depth interviews (N = 21) were conducted with sex workers in Chicago. Transcripts of individual interviews were analyzed in Dedoose using rapid content analysis. RESULTS: Participants had a mean age of 32.7 years; 45% identified as White, 20% as Black, 15% as Latinx, and 20% as multiple races; 80% identified as Queer. A total of 52% of participants identified as cisgender women, 33% as transgender or gender fluid, 10% as cisgender men, and 5% declined to answer. Themes of self-management practices, stigmatizing and culturally unsafe experiences with healthcare providers, and the prohibitive cost of healthcare emerged as consistent barriers to routinely accessing healthcare. Despite identifying patient-centered care as a desired healthcare model, many participants did not report receiving care that was respectful or culturally responsive. Themes also included developing strategies to identify sex worker-safe care providers, creating false self-narratives and health histories in order to safely access care, and creating self-care routines that serve as alternatives to primary care. CONCLUSION: Our findings demonstrate how patient-centered care for sex-workers in Chicago might include holistic wellness exercises, accessible pay scales for services, and destigmatizing healthcare praxis. Focus on culturally safe healthcare provision presents needs beyond individualized, or even community-level, interventions. Ongoing provider training and inbuilt, systemic responsivity to patient needs and contexts is crucial to patient-centered care.

description: As small finns grow from employing just a few people to employing 10 or more, there is an increasing need for more fonnalized human resource management practices. The purpose of this study was to determine to what extent managers of florist crop production finns used formalized human resource management practices in their businesses. Managers of 104 florist crop production firms in New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan participated in a telephone survey designed to gather information on specific personnel management practices. The study revealed that while some finns are using fonnalized personnel management practices, the majority are not. Those who use formalized personnel management practices tend to be, but are not exclusively, larger firms. Larger finns for the purposes of this study were considered to have 10 or more employees and comprised 47% of the firms in this study. Managers surveyed were also asked to report their concerns regarding personnel management. Overwhelmingly, the concerns voiced tended to be in the areas of compensation, particularly health insurance, and recruiting a qualified work force.

description: In this paper we deal with the cosmological dynamics of Randall-Sundrum brane-world type scenarios in which the five-dimensional Weyl tensor has a non-vanishing projection onto the three-brane where matter fields are confined. Using dynamical systems techniques, we study how the state space of Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) and Bianchi type I cosmological models is affected by the bulk Weyl tensor, focusing in the differences that appear with respect to general relativity and also Randall-Sundrum cosmological scenarios without the Weyl tensor contribution.

description: Hayden and Preskill proposed a thought experiment that Bob can recover the information Alice throws into a black hole if he has a quantum computer entangled with the black hole, and Yoshida and Kitaev recently proposed a concrete decoding scheme. The parallel question is that after a small system is thermalized with a large system, how one can decode the initial state information with the help of two entangled many-body systems. Here we propose to realize this protocol in a physical system of two Dicke models, with two cavity fields prepared in a thermofield double state. We show that the Yoshida-Kitaev protocol allows us to read out the initial spin information after it is scrambled into the cavity. We show that the readout efficiency reaches a maximum when the model parameter is tuned to the regime where the system is the most chaotic, characterized by the shortest scrambling time in the out-of-time-ordered correlation function. Our proposal opens up the possibility of discussing this profound thought experiment in a realistic setting.

description: We study analytically the Mott transition of the N-orbital Hubbard model using dynamical mean-field theory and a low-energy projection onto an effective Kondo model. It is demonstrated that the critical interaction at which the insulator appears (Uc1) and the one at which the metal becomes unstable (Uc2) have different dependence on the number of orbitals as the latter becomes large: Uc1 ~ \sqrt{N} while Uc2 ~ N. An exact analytical determination of the critical coupling Uc2/N is obtained in the large-N limit. The metallic solution close to this critical coupling has many similarities at low-energy with the results of slave boson approximations, to which a comparison is made. We also discuss how the critical temperature associated with the Mott critical endpoint depends on the number of orbitals.

description: Each infinitesimally faithful representation of a reductive complex connected algebraic group $G$ induces a dominant morphism $Φ$ from the group to its Lie algebra $\g$ by orthogonal projection in the endomorphism ring of the representation space. The map $Φ$ identifies the field $Q(G)$ of rational functions on $G$ with an algebraic extension of the field $Q(\g)$ of rational functions on $\g$. For the spin representation of $\on{Spin}(V)$ the map $Φ$ essentially coincides with the classical Cayley transform. In general, properties of $Φ$ are established and these properties are applied to deal with a separation of variables (Richardson) problem for reductive algebraic groups: Find $\on{Harm}(G)$ so that for the coordinate ring $A(G)$ of $G$ we have $A(G) = A(G)^G\otimes \on{Harm}(G)$. As a consequence of a partial solution to this problem and a complete solution for SL(n) one has in general the equality $[Q(G):Q(\g)] = [Q(G)^G:Q(\g)^G]$ of the degrees of extension fields. Among other results, $Φ$ yields (for the complex case) a generalization, involving generic regular orbits, of the result of Richardson showing that the Cayley map, when $G$ is semisimple, defines an isomorphism from the variety of unipotent elements in $G$ to the variety of nilpotent elements in $\g$. In addition if $G$ is semisimple the Cayley map establishes a diffeomorphism between the real submanifold of hyperbolic elements in $G$ and the space of infinitesimal hyperbolic elements in $\g$. Some examples are computed in detail.

Universal Large-order asymptotic behavior of the Strong-coupling and High-Temperature series expansions

description: For theories that exhibit second order phase transition, we conjecture that the large-order asymptotic behavior of the strong-coupling ( High-Temperature) series expansion takes the form $σ^{n} n^{b}$ where $b$ is a universal parameter. The associated critical exponent is then given by $b+1$. The series itself can be approximated by the hypergeometric approximants $_{p}F_{p-1}$ which can mimic the same large-order behavior of the given series. Near the tip of the branch cut, the hypergeometric function $_{p}F_{p-1}$ has a power-law behavior from which the critical exponent and critical coupling can be extracted. The conjecture has been tested in this work for the perturbation series of the ground state energy of the Yang-Lee model as a strong-coupling form of the $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric $iϕ^3$ theory and the High-Temperature expansion within the Ising model. From the known $b$ parameter for the Yang-Lee model, we obtained the exact critical exponents which reflects the universality of $b$. Very accurate prediction for $b$ has been obtained from the many orders available for the High-Temperature series expansion of the Ising model which in turn predicts accurate critical exponent. Apart from critical exponents, the hypergeometric approximants for the Yang-Lee model show almost exact predictions for the ground state energy from low orders of perturbation series as input.

description: Sri Lanka’s economy has undergone significant structural changes during the past two decades. The manufacturing and services sectors show a considerable growth during this period and these changes in the economy seem to have had a greater influence on domestic agriculture. Sri Lanka’s rural areas have witnessed the co-existence of rising wage rates of domestic agricultural sector workers with relatively high unemployment levels. The real price of agricultural output shows a declining trend while the real wage rate in domestic agriculture shows an increasing trend. This study examines the influence of the expansion effect of non-agricultural sector on the real wages of the domestic agriculture during the post reform period. Engle and Granger methodology is used to determine the relationship between real agricultural wage rates, capital formation in non-agriculture and wage rate of export agriculture. The results indicate the presence of a long-term relationship between wage rate and capital formation in the non-agriculture sector. Increase in labour productivity, suitable farm mechanization and institutional changes related to land and labour would help to mitigate the negative influence of rising wage rates on domestic agriculture.
Another Interpretation of the Power-law type Spectrum of an Ultraluminous Compact X-ray Source in IC 342

description: The ultraluminous compact X-ray sources (ULXs) generally show a curving spectrum in the 0.7--10 keV ASCA bandpass, which looks like a high temperature analogue of the disk dominated high/soft state spectra seen in Galactic black hole binaries (BHBs) at high mass accretion rates. Several ULXs have been seen to vary, and to make a transition at their lowest luminosity to a spectrum which looks more like a power law. These have been previously interpreted as the analogue of the power law dominated low/hard state in Galactic BHBs. However, the ULX luminosity at which the transition occurs must be at least 10--50 per cent of the Eddington limit assuming that their highest luminosity phase corresponds to the Eddington limit, while for the Galactic BHBs the high/soft--low/hard transition occurs at a few per cent of the Eddington limit. Here we show that the apparently power law spectrum in a ULX in IC342 can be equally well fit over the ASCA bandpass by a strongly Comptonised optically thick accretion disk with the maximum temperature of ~1 keV. Recent work on the Galactic BHBs has increasingly shown that such components are common at high mass accretion rates, and that this often characterises the very high (or anomalous) state. Thus we propose that the power law type ULX spectra are not to be identified with the low/hard state, but rather represent the Comptonisation dominated very high/anomalous state in the Galactic BHBs.

description: Boron forms compounds with nearly all metals, with notable exception of copper and other group IB and IIB elements. Here, we report an unexpected discovery of ordered copper boride grown epitaxially on Cu(111) under ultrahigh vacuum. Scanning tunneling microscopy experiments combined with ab initio evolutionary structure prediction reveal a remarkably complex structure of 2D-Cu8B14. Strong intra-layer p-d hybridization and a large amount of charge transfer between Cu and B atoms are the key factors for the emergence of copper boride. This makes the discovered material unique and opens up the possibility of synthesizing ordered low-dimensional structures in similar immiscible systems.
