description: In this Letter, we analyse the distributions of stellar ages in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in spiral arms, inter-arm spurs, and at large galactic radii, where the spiral arms are relatively weak. We use the results of numerical simulations of galaxies, which follow the evolution of GMCs and include star particles where star formation events occur. We find that GMCs in spiral arms tend to have predominantly young (< 10 Myr) stars. By contrast, clouds which are the remainders of spiral arm GMAs that have been sheared into inter-arm GMCs, contain fewer young (< 10 Myr) stars, and more ~20 Myr stars. We also show that clouds which form in the absence of spiral arms, due to local gravitational and thermal instabilities, contain preferentially young stars. We propose the age distributions of stars in GMCs will be a useful diagnostic to test different cloud evolution scenarios, the origin of spiral arms, and the success of numerical models of galactic star formation. We discuss the implications of our results in the context of Galactic and extragalactic molecular clouds.

description: Over the years, the field of orthodontics has been exposed to different paradigms regarding the involvement of genetics in the development of malocclusions. Research in the area has evolved from the study of the inheritance patterns of certain dentofacial traits to the identification of genetic variants that contribute to the susceptibility of individuals to present different malocclusions traits. Due to the large amount and heterogeneity of the available evidence, it is still difficult to know what is the state of the art on the subject, what gaps in knowledge exist, or what are the main potential limitations of the available studies. The objective of this scoping review is hence to map all the available evidence on the genetic background of malocclusion-related traits.

description: Turbulent fluctuations of the atmospheric refraction index, so-called optical turbulence, can significantly distort propagating laser beams. Therefore, modeling the strength of these fluctuations ($C_n^2$) is highly relevant for the successful development and deployment of future free-space optical communication links. In this letter, we propose a physics-informed machine learning (ML) methodology, $Π$-ML, based on dimensional analysis and gradient boosting to estimate $C_n^2$. Through a systematic feature importance analysis, we identify the normalized variance of potential temperature as the dominating feature for predicting $C_n^2$. For statistical robustness, we train an ensemble of models which yields high performance on the out-of-sample data of $R^2=0.958\pm0.001$.

description: Algorithms for autonomous navigation in environments without Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) coverage mainly rely on onboard perception systems. These systems commonly incorporate sensors like cameras and Light Detection and Rangings (LiDARs), the performance of which may degrade in the presence of aerosol particles. Thus, there is a need of fusing acquired data from these sensors with data from Radio Detection and Rangings (RADARs) which can penetrate through such particles. Overall, this will improve the performance of localization and collision avoidance algorithms under such environmental conditions. This paper introduces a multimodal dataset from the harsh and unstructured underground environment with aerosol particles. A detailed description of the onboard sensors and the environment, where the dataset is collected are presented to enable full evaluation of acquired data. Furthermore, the dataset contains synchronized raw data measurements from all onboard sensors in Robot Operating System (ROS) format to facilitate the evaluation of navigation, and localization algorithms in such environments. In contrast to the existing datasets, the focus of this paper is not only to capture both temporal and spatial data diversities but also to present the impact of harsh conditions on captured data. Therefore, to validate the dataset, a preliminary comparison of odometry from onboard LiDARs is presented.

description: Silica microresonators with an inverted-wedge shape were fabricated using conventional semiconductor fabrication methods. The measured quality factors of the resonators were greater than $10^6$ in 1550 nm band. Controllable coupling from under coupling, through critical coupling, to over coupling was demonstrated by horizontally moving a fiber taper while in touch with the top surface of the resonator. Thin outer ring of the resonator provided a support for the fiber taper leading to a robust stable coupling.

Photon blockade in quadratically coupled optomechanical systems

Year: 2013

description: We study the steady-state photon statistics of a quadratically coupled optomechanical cavity, which is weakly driven by a monochromatic laser field. We examine the photon blockade by evaluating the second-order correlation function of the cavity photons. By restricting the system within the zero-, one-, and two-photon subspace, we obtain an approximate analytical expression for the correlation function. We also numerically investigate the correlation function by solving the quantum master equation including both optical and mechanical dissipations. The results show that, in the deep-resolved-sideband and single-photon strong-coupling regimes, the single-photon resonant driving will induce a photon blockade, which is limited by the thermal noise of the mechanical environment.

description: Whispering gallery mode (WGM) microbubble cavities are a versatile optofluidic sensing platform owing to their hollow core geometry. To increase the light-matter interaction and, thereby, achieve a higher sensitivity, thin-walled microbubbles are desirable. However, a lack of knowledge about the precise geometry of hollow microbubbles prevents us from having an accurate theoretical model to describe the WGMs and their response to external stimuli. In this work, we provide a complete characterization of the wall structure of a microbubble and propose a theoretical model for the WGMs in this thin-walled microcavity based on the optical waveguide approach. Structural characterization of the wavelength-scale wall is enabled by focused ion beam milling and scanning electron microscopy imaging. The proposed theoretical model is verified by finite element method simulations. Our approach can readily be extended to other low-dimensional micro-/nanophotonic structures.

description: Let $N$ be a Riemannian manifold and consider a stationary union of three or more $C^{1,μ}$ hypersurfaces-with-boundary $M_k$ in $N$ with a common boundary $Γ$. We show that if $N$ is smooth, then $Γ$ is smooth and each $M_k$ is smooth up to $Γ$ (real analytic in the case $N$ is real analytic). Consequently we strengthen a result of Wickramasekera to conclude that under the stronger hypothesis that $V$ is a stationary, stable, integral $n$-varifold in an $(n+1)$-dimensional, smooth (real analytic) Riemannian manifold such that the support of $\|V\|$ is nowhere locally the union of three or more smooth (real analytic) hypersurfaces-with-boundary meeting along a common boundary, the singular set of $V$ is empty if $n = 6$, is discrete if $n = 7$, and has Hausdorff dimension at most $n-7$ if $n \geq 8$.

description: Topological quantum states cannot be created from product states with local quantum circuits of constant depth and are in this sense more entangled than topologically trivial states, but how entangled are they? Here we quantify the entanglement in one-dimensional topological states by showing that local quantum circuits of linear depth are necessary to generate them from product states. We establish this linear lower bound for both bosonic and fermionic one-dimensional topological phases and use symmetric circuits for phases with symmetry. We also show that the linear lower bound can be saturated by explicitly constructing circuits generating these topological states. The same results hold for local quantum circuits connecting topological states in different phases.

description: Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding (GRAND) is a family of hard- and soft-detection error correction decoding algorithms that provide accurate decoding of any moderate redundancy code of any length. Here we establish a method through which any soft-input GRAND algorithm can provide soft output in the form of an accurate a posteriori estimate of the likelihood that a decoding is correct or, in the case of list decoding, the likelihood that the correct decoding is an element of the list. Implementing the method adds negligible additional computation and memory to the existing decoding process. The output permits tuning the balance between undetected errors and block errors for arbitrary moderate redundancy codes including CRCs

description: We use density functional theory to explore the interplay between octahedral rotations and ferroelectricity in the model compound SrTiO$_3$. We find that over the experimentally relevant range octahedral rotations suppress ferroelectricity as is generally assumed in the literature. Somewhat surprisingly we observe that at larger angles the previously weakened ferroelectric instability strengthens significantly. By analysing geometry changes, energetics, force constants and charges, we explain the mechanisms behind this transition from competition to cooperation with increasing octahedral rotation angle.

description: Recent advances in visual-language models have shown remarkable zero-shot text-image matching ability that is transferable to downstream tasks such as object detection and segmentation. Adapting these models for object counting, however, remains a formidable challenge. In this study, we first investigate transferring vision-language models (VLMs) for class-agnostic object counting. Specifically, we propose CLIP-Count, the first end-to-end pipeline that estimates density maps for open-vocabulary objects with text guidance in a zero-shot manner. To align the text embedding with dense visual features, we introduce a patch-text contrastive loss that guides the model to learn informative patch-level visual representations for dense prediction. Moreover, we design a hierarchical patch-text interaction module to propagate semantic information across different resolution levels of visual features. Benefiting from the full exploitation of the rich image-text alignment knowledge of pretrained VLMs, our method effectively generates high-quality density maps for objects-of-interest. Extensive experiments on FSC-147, CARPK, and ShanghaiTech crowd counting datasets demonstrate state-of-the-art accuracy and generalizability of the proposed method. Code is available: https://github.com/songrise/CLIP-Count.

description: Robot manipulators are often deployed in tool-symmetric tasks, which only requires defining end effector position and pointing direction. In this case six-axis serial industrial robots and full-mobility (spatial) parallel robots have one degree of task redundancy. Using Cardan angles as orientation coordinates, a unified formulation of the position-level and second-order inverse kinematics problem is set up for both robot types. An efficient scheme for difference-quotient approximation of gradients of performance criteria for projection into the task redundancy's nullspace is presented. The simulation example of a hexapod robot shows that avoiding and exiting parallel robot singularities of type II is possible with the nullspace of all joints. The nullspace controller scheme can be used in offline trajectory optimization and in online motion generation.

description: Collective motion in actively propelled particle systems is triggered on the very local scale by nucleation of coherently moving units consisting of just a handful of particles. These units grow and merge over time, ending up in a long-range ordered, coherently-moving state. So far, there exists no bottom-up understanding of how the microscopic dynamics and interactions between the constituents are related to the system's ordering instability. In this paper, we study a class of models for propelled colloids allowing an explicit treatment of the microscopic details of the collision process. Specifically, the model equations are Newtonian equations of motion with separate force terms for particles' driving, dissipation and interaction forces. Focusing on dilute particle systems, we analyze the binary scattering behavior for these models, and determine-based on the microscopic dynamics-the corresponding collision-rule, i.e., the mapping of pre-collisional velocities and impact parameter on post-collisional velocities. By studying binary scattering we also find that the considered models for active colloids share the same principle for parallel alignment: the first incoming particle (with respect to the center of collision) is aligned to the second particle as a result of the encounter. This behavior is distinctively different to alignment in non-driven dissipative gases. Moreover, the obtained collision rule lends itself as a starting point to apply kinetic theory for propelled particle systems in order to determine the phase boundary to a long-range ordered, coherently-moving state. The microscopic origin of the collision rule offers the opportunity to quantitatively scrutinize the predictions of kinetic theory for propelled particle systems through direct comparison with multi-particle simulations.

description: Autonomous experimentation has emerged as an efficient approach to accelerate the pace of materials discovery. Although instruments for autonomous synthesis have become popular in molecular and polymer science, solution processing of hybrid materials and nanoparticles, examples of autonomous tools for physical vapor deposition are scarce yet important for the semiconductor industry. Here, we report the design and implementation of an autonomous workflow for sputter deposition of thin films with controlled composition, leveraging a highly automated sputtering reactor custom-controlled by Python, optical emission spectroscopy (OES), and a Bayesian optimization algorithm. We modeled film composition, measured by x-ray fluorescence, as a linear function of emission lines monitored during the co-sputtering from elemental Zn and Ti targets in N$_2$ atmosphere. A Bayesian control algorithm, informed by OES, navigates the space of sputtering power to fabricate films with user-defined composition, by minimizing the absolute error between desired and measured emission signals. We validated our approach by autonomously fabricating Zn$_x$Ti$_{1-x}$N$_y$ films with deviations from the targeted cation composition within relative 3.5 %, even for 15 nm thin films, demonstrating that the proposed approach can reliably synthesize thin films with specific composition and minimal human interference. Moreover, the proposed method can be extended to more difficult synthesis experiments where plasma intensity depends non-linearly on pressure, or the elemental sticking coefficients strongly depend on the substrate temperature.

Counting metastable states in a kinetically constrained model using a patch repetition analysis

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We analyse metastable states in the East model, using a recently-proposed patch-repetition analysis based on time-averaged density profiles. The results reveal a hierarchy of states of varying lifetimes, consistent with previous studies in which the metastable states were identified and used to explain the glassy dynamics of the model. We establish a mapping between these states and configurations of systems of hard rods, which allows us to analyse both typical and atypical metastable states. We discuss connections between the complexity of metastable states and large-deviation functions of dynamical quantities, both in the context of the East model and more generally in glassy systems.

description: We study a diffusive Lotka-Volterra competition system with advection under Neumann boundary conditions. Our system models a competition relationship that one species escape from the region of high population density of their competitors in order to avoid competitions. We establish the global existence of bounded classical solutions for the system in one-dimensional domain. For multi-dimensional domains, globally bounded classical solutions are obtained for a parabolic-elliptic system under proper assumptions on the system parameters. These global existence results make it possible to study bounded steady states in order to model species segregation phenomenon. We then investigate the stationary problem in one-dimensional domains. Through bifurcation theory, we obtain the existence of nonconstant positive steady states, which are small perturbations from the positive equilibrium; we also study the stability of these bifurcating solutions when the diffusion coefficient of the escaper is large and the diffusion coefficient of its competitor is small. In the limit of large advection rate, we show that the reaction-advection-diffusion system converges to a shadow system involving the competitor population density and an unknown positive constant. The existence and stability of positive solutions to the shadow system have also been obtained through bifurcation theories. Finally, we construct positive solutions with an interior transition layer to the shadow system when the crowding rate of the escaper and the diffusion rate of its interspecific competitors are sufficiently small. The transition-layer solutions can be used to model the species segregation phenomenon.

description: One classical result of Freimann gives the optimal lower bound for the cardinality of A+A if A is a d-dimensional finite set in the Euclidean d-space. Matolcsi and Ruzsa have recently generalized this lower bound to |A+kB| if B is d-dimensional, and A is contained in the convex hull of B. We characterize the equality case of the Matolcsi-Ruzsa bound. The argument is based partially on understanding triangulations of polytopes.

description: In this paper, we introduce \texttt{SuperLite}, an open-source Monte Carlo radiation transport code designed to produce synthetic spectra for astrophysical transient phenomena affected by circumstellar interaction. \texttt{SuperLite} utilizes Monte Carlo methods for semi-implicit, semi-relativistic radiation transport in high-velocity shocked outflows, employing multi-group structured opacity calculations. The code enables rapid post-processing of hydrodynamic profiles to generate high-quality spectra that can be compared with observations of transient events, including superluminous supernovae, pulsational pair-instability supernovae, and other peculiar transients. We present the methods employed in \texttt{SuperLite} and compare the code's performance to that of other radiative transport codes, such as \texttt{SuperNu} and CMFGEN. We show that \texttt{SuperLite} has successfully passed standard Monte Carlo radiation transport tests and can reproduce spectra of typical supernovae of Type Ia, Type IIP and Type IIn.

description: This work proposes a method for the measurement of a country's digital investigation capacity and saturation for the assessment of future capacity expansion. The focus is on external, or international, partners being a factor that could negatively affect the return on investment when attempting to expand investigation capacity nationally. This work concludes with the argument that when dealing with digital crime, target international partners should be a consideration in expansion, and could potentially be a bottleneck of investigation requests.

title: Blok laif : an ethnography of a Mosbi settlement
Creators: name: Hukula, Fiona Sonia Karejo
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews
Year: 2015

description: This thesis is about urban sociality in the context of an urban settlement in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. I explore issues of urban life through everyday stories of settlers who reside in a settlement (also known as a blok) at Nine Mile, Port Moresby. I present settlers’ ideas of work and money through their income generating efforts as well as their perception about giving. This thesis explores settlement notions of the forms that relatedness takes through everyday interactions of eating together, sharing and thinking of one another. These actions in turn inform ideas of personhood and gender. I use blok ideas to rethink assumptions about the meaning of land and place in an urban setting. Furthermore I seek to use blok understandings of kinship, personhood and gender to portray an urban sociality that is entwined in relations.

description: We study the delta-chain with spin-$1$ on basal sites and spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ on apical sites. The Heisenberg interaction between neighbor basal spins is antiferromagnetic (AF) and the interaction between basal and apical spins is ferromagnetic (F). We show that the magnetization curve of this model is the same as that of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ kagome-like chain with competing Heisenberg interactions. The ground state phase diagram of the latter as a function of the ratio between the AF and F interaction, $α$, consists of the ferromagnetic, ferrimagnetic and singlet phases. We study the magnetic properties in each ground state phase and analyze the magnetization curves. We show that there are magnetization plateaus and jumps in definite regions of value $α$. We compare the magnetic properties of considered models with those of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ delta chain.

description: In (Davis and Papp, 2022), the authors introduced the concept of dual certificates of (weighted) sum-of-squares polynomials, which are vectors from the dual cone of weighted sums of squares (WSOS) polynomials that can be interpreted as nonnegativity certificates. This initial theoretical work showed that for every polynomial in the interior of a WSOS cone, there exists a rational dual certificate proving that the polynomial is WSOS. In this article, we analyze the complexity of rational dual certificates of WSOS polynomials by bounding the bit sizes of integer dual certificates as a function of parameters such as the degree and the number of variables of the polynomials, or their distance from the boundary of the cone. After providing a general bound, we explore several special cases, such as univariate polynomials nonnegative over the real line or a bounded interval, represented in different commonly used bases. We also provide an algorithm which runs in rational arithmetic and computes a rational certificate with boundable bit size for a WSOS lower bound of the input polynomial.
