description: Despite the importance of Si:P delta-doped wires for modern nanoelectronics, there are currently no computational models of electron transport in these devices. In this paper we present a nonequilibrium Green's function model for electronic transport in a delta-doped wire, which is described by a tight-binding Hamiltonian matrix within a single-band effective-mass approximation. We use this transport model to calculate the current-voltage characteristics of a number of delta-doped wires, achieving good agreement with experiment. To motivate our transport model we have performed density-functional calculations for a variety of delta-doped wires, each with different donor configurations. These calculations also allow us to accurately define the electronic extent of a delta-doped wire, which we find to be at least 4.6 nm.

description: We derived local boundary counterterms in massive gravity theory with a negative cosmological constant in four dimensions. With these counterterms at hand we analyzed the properties of the boundary field theory in the context of AdS/CFT duality by calculating the boundary stress energy tensor. The calculation shows that the boundary stress energy tensor is conserved, and momentum dissipation might occur on the level of linear response only. We also calculated the thermodynamic quantities and the boundary stress energy tensor for a specific type of solutions. The thermodynamic potentials agree with the results of literature up to some constants which can be removed by adding finite counterterms.

Cool and Luminous Transients from Mass-Losing Binary Stars

description: We study transients produced by equatorial disk-like outflows from catastrophically mass-losing binary stars with an asymptotic velocity and energy deposition rate near the inner edge which are proportional to the binary escape velocity v_esc. As a test case, we present the first smoothed-particle radiation-hydrodynamics calculations of the mass loss from the outer Lagrange point with realistic equation of state and opacities. The resulting spiral stream becomes unbound for binary mass ratios 0.06 < q < 0.8. For synchronous binaries with non-degenerate components, the spiral-stream arms merge at a radius of ~10a, where a is the binary semi-major axis, and the accompanying shock thermalizes about 10% of the kinetic power of the outflow. The mass-losing binary outflows produce luminosities reaching up to ~10^6 L_Sun and effective temperatures spanning 500 < T_eff < 6000 K, which is compatible with many of the class of recently-discovered red transients such as V838 Mon and V1309 Sco. Dust readily forms in the outflow, potentially in a catastrophic global cooling transition. The appearance of the transient is viewing angle-dependent due to vastly different optical depths parallel and perpendicular to the binary plane. We predict a correlation between the peak luminosity and the outflow velocity, which is roughly obeyed by the known red transients. Outflows from mass-losing binaries can produce luminous (10^5 L_Sun) and cool (T_eff < 1500 K) transients lasting a year or longer, as has potentially been detected by Spitzer surveys of nearby galaxies.

Lifshitz Transitions in Magnetic Phases of the Periodic Anderson Model
Creators: name: Kubo, Katsunori
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the reconstruction of a Fermi surface, which is called a Lifshitz transition, in magnetically ordered phases of the periodic Anderson model on a square lattice with a finite Coulomb interaction between f electrons. We apply the variational Monte Carlo method to the model by using the Gutzwiller wavefunctions for the paramagnetic, antiferromagnetic, ferromagnetic, and charge-density-wave states. We find that an antiferromagnetic phase is realized around half-filling and a ferromagnetic phase is realized when the system is far away from half-filling. In both magnetic phases, Lifshitz transitions take place. By analyzing the electronic states, we conclude that the Lifshitz transitions to large ordered-moment states can be regarded as itinerant-localized transitions of the f electrons.

description: In this paper, after referring to the Rastall theory, we address some of its cosmological consequences. Moreover, bearing the Clausius relation in mind, using Friedman equations in Rastall theory and the Cai-Kim temperature, we obtain a relation for the apparent horizon entropy of a flat FLRW universe. In addition, we impose the entropy positivity condition on the obtained relation for the horizon entropy, to find some constraints on the Rastall parameters. Moreover, we investigate the second and generalized second laws of thermodynamics. The results of considering a dominated prefect fluid with constant state parameter are also addressed helping us familiarize with the Rastall theory.

Simultaneous statistical delay and slew optimization for interconnect pipelines

description: Process variation has become a major concern in the design of many nanometer circuits, including interconnect pipelines. This paper develops closed-form models to predict the delay distribution of an interconnect pipeline stage and the slew distributions of all the nets in the circuit. Also, a buffer sizing and re-placement algorithm is developed to minimize the area of interconnect pipelines while meeting the delay and slew constraints. Experiments show that ignoring location dependent variation can cause timing yield loss of 8.8% in a delay limited circuit. Furthermore, the area of the circuit can be improved by over 10% when the location dependent variation and residual random variation are understood and separated. Lastly, experiment results show that sizing alone is not sufficient to optimize interconnect pipelines with location dependent variation. Under equivalent area, a circuit optimized with only sizing changes may violate the slew constraint on over 50% of the nets

Recommender systems (Information filtering)

description: In a world with increasing access to raw data, recommender systems can pare down information to help people make choices on a variety of subjects with greater ease. Libraries contain vast amounts of information and use classification schemes to sort it. However, fiction classification is a continuing issue in libraries. This is especially true in academic libraries where fiction might be used for recreational or scholarly purposes. In this paper, the idea that an academic library recommender system might solve some of the problems of fiction classification is discussed.  A qualitative evaluation is performed on six book recommender systems. Recommendations given by each system for a single novel are analyzed based upon information gathered from a close reading, book reviews, formal critiques, academic papers, and university syllabi. It is hoped that this study will be of use to academic librarians and creators of recommender systems.

description: We study the dynamics of the equation obtained by Schryer and Walker for the motion of domain walls. The reduced equation is a reaction diffusion equation for the angle between the applied field and the magnetization vector. If the hard axis anisotropy $K_d$ is much larger than the easy axis anisotropy $K_u$, there is a range of applied fields where the dynamics does not select the Schryer-Walker solution. We give analytic expressions for the speed of the domain wall in this regime and the conditions for its existence.

description: We present a dual-species effusive source and Zeeman slower designed to produce slow atomic beams of two elements with a large mass difference and with very different oven temperature requirements. We demonstrate this design for the case of $^6$Li and $^{85}$Rb and achieve MOT loading rates equivalent to that reported in prior work on dual species (Rb+Li) Zeeman slowers operating at the same oven temperatures. Key design choices, including thermally separating the effusive sources and using a segmented coil design to enable computer control of the magnetic field profile, ensure that the apparatus can be easily modified to slow other atomic species. By performing the final slowing using the quadruple magnetic field of the MOT, we are able to shorten our Zeeman slower length making for a more compact system without compromising performance. We outline the construction and analyze the emission properties of our effusive sources. We also verify the performance of the source and slower, and we observe sequential loading rates of $8 \times 10^8$ atoms/s for a Rb oven temperature of $120\,^{\circ}$C and $1.5 \times 10^8$ atoms/s for a Li reservoir at $450\,^{\circ}$C, corresponding to reservoir lifetimes for continuous operation of 10 and 4 years respectively.

Serum neurofilament light chains
High-dose intravenous steroids

description: Background and objectives: In progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, CNS inflammation trapped behind a closed blood brain barrier drives continuous neuroaxonal degeneration, thus leading to deterioration of neurological function. Therapeutics in progressive MS are limited. High-dose intravenous glucocorticosteroids (HDCS) can cross the blood-brain barrier and may reduce inflammation within the CNS. However, the treatment efficacy of HDCS in progressive MS remains controversial. Serum neurofilament light chains (sNfL) are an established biomarker of neuroaxonal degeneration and are used to monitor treatment responses. We aimed to investigate whether repeated cycles of intravenous HDCS reduce the level of sNfL in progressive MS patients. Methods: We performed a monocentric observational study of 25 patients recruited during ongoing clinical routine care who were treated with repeated cycles of intravenous HDCS as long-term therapy for their progressive MS. sNfL were measured in 103 repeated blood samples (median time interval from baseline 28 weeks, range 2-55 weeks) with the Single Molecular Array (SiMoA) technology. The Expanded Disability Status Score (EDSS) was documented at baseline and follow-up. Results: The median age of patients was 55 years (range 46-77 years) with a median disease duration of 26 years (range 11-42 years). sNfL baseline levels at study inclusion were significantly higher in progressive MS patients compared to age-matched healthy controls (median 16.7 pg/ml vs 11.5 pg/ml, p=0.002). sNfL levels showed a positive correlation with patient age (r=0.2, p=0.003). The majority of patients (72%, 16/23) showed reduced sNfL levels ≥20 weeks after HDCS compared to baseline (median 13.3 pg/ml, p=0.03). sNfL levels correlated negatively with the time interval from baseline HDCS therapy (r=-0.2, p=0.03). This association was also evident after correction for treatment with disease-modifying drugs (adjusted R2=0.10, p=0.001). The EDSS remained stable (median 6.5) within a median treatment duration of 26 weeks (range 13-51 weeks). Conclusion: Although larger studies are needed to confirm our findings, we were able to demonstrate that HDCS treatment reduces sNfL levels and therefore may slow down neuroaxonal damage in a subgroup of patients with progressive MS. Moreover, a stable EDSS was observed during therapy. Findings suggest that HDCS may be beneficial for the treatment of progressive MS.

description: Employing mainly numerical methods, we explore the ground-state phase diagram of an anisotropic $S=1/2$ ladder, in which leg interactions are uniform and isotropic, while rung interactions are alternating and have a common Ising-type anisotropy. We determine the phase diagram in the case where $J_{\rm leg}=0.2$ (antiferromagnetic), $J_{\rm rung}=-1.0$ (ferromagnetic) and $|J_{\rm rung}'|\!\leq\!1.0$, the first one being the magnitude of the leg interaction and the second and third ones those of the rung interactions, which are alternating. It is emphasized that the system has a frustration when $J_{\rm rung}'$ is positive. We find that, in the frustrated region, the Haldane state appears as the ground state even when the Ising character of rung interactions is strong. This appearance of the Haldane phase is contrary to the ordinary situation, and it is called the inversion phenomenon concerning the interaction anisotropy. We also find that an incommensurate state becomes the ground state in a portion of the Haldane phase region.

description: The Public Library Inquiry, a study performed by an independent team of social scientists at the behest of the American Library Association, was documented in a series of monographs printed between 1949 and 1952. These monographs made repeated reference to the "Library Faith," articulated by Robert Leigh, director of the study, as "a belief in the virtue of the printed word, especially the book, the reading of which is held to be good in itself or from its reading flows that which is good." The Public Library Inquiry asserted that the library faith had been the central value of the public library movement in America and that it "retains persistent validity."  This paper is a brief history of the Library Faith in American public libraries, followed by an examination of work by selected writers about public libraries and public education which focuses on the relationship between reading and democracy and the role public libraries have played and can continue to play in ensuring, in John Dewey's words, "that an organized, articulate Public comes into being."

An integrable case of the p+ip pairing Hamiltonian interacting with its environment

description: We consider a generalisation of the p+ip pairing Hamiltonian with external interaction terms. These terms allow for the exchange of particles between the system and its environment. As a result the u(1) symmetry associated with conservation of particle number, present in the p+ip Hamiltonian, is broken. Nonetheless the generalised model is integrable. We establish integrability using the Boundary Quantum Inverse Scattering Method, with one of the reflection matrices chosen to be non-diagonal. We also derive the corresponding Bethe Ansatz Equations, the roots of which parametrise the exact solution for the energy spectrum.

description: In this paper an analysis of a technical support data with the goal of identifying process improvement actions for reducing interrupts is presented. A technical support chat is established and used to provide internal developer support to other development teams which use the software code developed by a core team. The paper shows how data analysis of a 6 months support time helped to identify gaps and action items for improving the technical support process to minimize interrupts from other developer teams. The paper also shows effects (advantages and drawbacks) of refactor actions taken based on this analysis.

title: ‘Abjection hurts’: Race, class, gender, and the demand for a contemporary reworking of the Kristevan abject
Creators: name: Margiotta, Chiara
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University
Year: 2023

description: This thesis examines Julia Kristeva’s theory of the abject, as outlined in Powers of Horror (1980), through the lens of contemporary American literature, considering the potential problems with the Kristevan abject and the ways in which contemporary work focused on race, class, and gender highlight its limitations as a model for analysis. Occupied with ideas of embodied abjection, disgust, and depersonification, this thesis focuses on texts by Toni Morrison, Jesmyn Ward, Jenny Zhang, David Wojnarowicz, and Darcie Steinke, considering the ways in which they all, thematically, link to abjection, and yet remain outwith the scope of traditional Kristevan analysis. Drawing on work in Black studies, queer studies, and particularly from Imogen Tyler’s ideas of social abjection, this thesis does not attempt to negate the power of abjection studies completely, but rather to highlight the need for a revitalised understanding of the abject, one which incorporates these fields of study, if it is to act as a meaningful tool for the analysis of contemporary writing.

description: Isolated galaxies in low-density regions are significant in the sense that they are least affected by the hierarchical pattern of galaxy growth, and interactions with perturbers, at least for the last few Gyr. To form a comprehensive picture of the star formation history of isolated galaxies, we constructed a catalog of isolated galaxies and their comparison sample in relatively denser environments. The galaxies are drawn from the SDSS DR7 in the redshift range of $0.025
