description: The manuscript provides an overview of the nutritional, nutraceutical. sensory, and quality characteristics of various legumes, cereals, fishes, fruits, and vegetables used in some African countries for the production of both traditional and innovative foods. Moreover, research studies on the application of diverse technological processes, such as milling, extrusion, baking, smoking, and solar drying, have been compiled and analyzed, shedding light on both conventional and emerging food technologies applied or potentially applicable in the same African regions. This review shows that various ingredients and/or final products present opportunities to be explored, offering potential strategies for their countries of origin. It emphasizes the importance of developing mechanisms to protect these products while contributing to the recognition of their quality and production models as key factors that add value. In fact, the review highlights that many of these food ingredients and products represent valuable opportunities for protection, e.g. with geographical indications, considering the already existing exploitation by several extra European Union countries (see Rooibos/Red Bush PDO from South Africa or Poivre de Penja PGI from Cameroon among others), which could represent an empowerment for small and medium local food producers also in view of export, helping African countries add value to their products and establish strong protection frameworks for their unique food heritage.

description: Strongly correlated spin systems can be driven to quantum critical points via various routes. In particular, gapped quantum antiferromagnets can undergo phase transitions into a magnetically ordered state with applied pressure or magnetic field, acting as tuning parameters. These transitions are characterized by $z=1$ or $z=2$ dynamical critical exponents, determined by the linear and quadratic low-energy dispersion of spin excitations, respectively. Employing high-frequency susceptibility and ultrasound techniques, we demonstrate that the tetragonal easy-plane quantum antiferromagnet NiCl$_{2}\cdot$4SC(NH$_2$)$_2$ (aka DTN) undergoes a spin-gap closure transition at about $4.2$ kbar, resulting in a pressure-induced magnetic ordering. The studies are complemented by high-pressure-electron spin-resonance measurements confirming the proposed scenario. Powder neutron diffraction measurements revealed that no lattice distortion occurs at this pressure and the high spin symmetry is preserved, establishing DTN as a perfect platform to investigate $z=1$ quantum critical phenomena. The experimental observations are supported by DMRG calculations, allowing us to quantitatively describe the pressure-driven evolution of critical fields and spin-Hamiltonian parameters in DTN.

description: The connectivity within single carrier information-processing devices requires transport and storage of single charge quanta. Our all-electrical Si/SiGe shuttle device, called quantum bus (QuBus), spans a length of 10 $\mathrmμ$m and is operated by only six simply-tunable voltage pulses. It operates in conveyor-mode, i.e. the electron is adiabatically transported while confined to a moving QD. We introduce a characterization method, called shuttle-tomography, to benchmark the potential imperfections and local shuttle-fidelity of the QuBus. The fidelity of the single-electron shuttle across the full device and back (a total distance of 19 $\mathrmμ$m) is $(99.7 \pm 0.3)\,\%$. Using the QuBus, we position and detect up to 34 electrons and initialize a register of 34 quantum dots with arbitrarily chosen patterns of zero and single-electrons. The simple operation signals, compatibility with industry fabrication and low spin-environment-interaction in $^{28}$Si/SiGe, promises spin-conserving transport of spin qubits for quantum connectivity in quantum computing architectures.

Magellanic Cloud Periphery Carbon Stars IV: The SMC

description: The kinematics of 150 carbon stars observed at moderate dispersion on the periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud are compared with the motions of neutral hydrogen and early type stars in the Inter-Cloud region. The distribution of radial velocities implies a configuration of these stars as a sheet inclined at 73+/-4 degrees to the plane of the sky. The near side, to the South, is dominated by a stellar component; to the North, the far side contains fewer carbon stars, and is dominated by the neutral gas. The upper velocity envelope of the stars is closely the same as that of the gas. This configuration is shown to be consistent with the known extension of the SMC along the line of sight, and is attributed to a tidally induced disruption of the SMC that originated in a close encounter with the LMC some 0.3 to 0.4 Gyr ago. The dearth of gas on the near side of the sheet is attributed to ablation processes akin to those inferred by Weiner & Williams (1996) to collisional excitation of the leading edges of Magellanic Stream clouds. Comparison with pre LMC/SMC encounter kinematic data of Hardy, Suntzeff, & Azzopardi (1989) of carbon stars, with data of stars formed after the encounter, of Maurice et al. (1989), and Mathewson et al. (a986, 1988) leaves little doubt that forces other than gravity play a role in the dynamics of the H I.

We analyse, in particular, solutions corresponding to ellipsoidally symmetric expansion of finite systems into vacuum. They can be utilized for relativistic description of the system evolution in thermodynamic region near the softest point and at the final stage of the hydrodynamic expansion in A+A collisions.

description: We provide a fully nonlinear port-Hamiltonian formulation for discrete elastodynamical systems as well as a structure-preserving time discretization. The governing equations are obtained in a variational manner and represent index-1 differential algebraic equations. Performing an index reduction one obtains the port-Hamiltonian state space model, which features the nonlinear strains as an independent state next to position and velocity. Moreover, hyperelastic material behavior is captured in terms of a nonlinear stored energy function. The model exhibits passivity and losslessness and has an underlying symmetry yielding the conservation of angular momentum. We perform temporal discretization using the midpoint discrete gradient, such that the beneficial properties are inherited by the developed time stepping scheme in a discrete sense. The numerical results obtained in a representative example are demonstrated to validate the findings.

We implement the algorithm in the function BWDifference in the updated Mathematica package BenderWu. With the help of BWDifference, we survey quantum mirror curves of toric fano Calabi-Yau threefolds, and find strong evidence that not only are the perturbative eigenenergies of the associated 1d quantum mechanical problems Borel summable, but also that the Borel sums are exact.

description: We present a plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential implementation of first-principle molecular dynamics, which is well suited to model large molecular systems containing transition metal centers. We describe an efficient strategy for parallelization that includes special features to deal with the augmented charge in the contest of Vanderbilt's ultrasoft pseudopotentials. We also discuss a simple approach to model molecular systems with a net charge and/or large dipole/quadrupole moments. We present test applications to manganese and iron porphyrins representative of a large class of biologically relevant metallorganic systems. Our results show that accurate Density-Functional Theory calculations on systems with several hundred atoms are feasible with access to moderate computational resources.

Britishness and ‘the outsider within’: tracing manifestations of racist nativism in education policy in England
Creators: name: Smith, Heather Jane
Publisher: name: PRISM: Casting New Light on Learning, Theory and Practice
Year: 2021

description: Racist nativism is a concept which helps us understand the relationship between racialisation and nativism. It is used here to examine cultural values perpetuated by media and political discourse as alien to British values in constructions of Britishness. This paper will consider with interest racist nativism revealed in the construction of Islam and, by association Muslims, as (members of) a non-Christian religion of non-Western tradition; and the speaking and speakers of languages other than English. This provides a contextual frame through which to examine education policy from early 2000s to the present day in order to trace how this racist nativism is manifested within and across policy development in England, thereby attributing significant institutional symbolic value. Manifestations of racist nativism are revealed in the quantity, force, focus and tone of the policies, but also, and perhaps most importantly, in deletions and absences, which this paper concludes is suggestive of a state-mandated racial epistemology of ignorance (Mills, 1997).

description: In chiral crystals crystalline symmetries can protect multifold fermions, pseudo-relativistic masless quasiparticles that have no high-energy counterparts. Their realization in transition metal monosilicides has exemplified their intriguing physical properties, such as long Fermi arc surface states and unusual optical responses. Recent experimental studies on amorphous transition metal monosilicides suggest that topological properties may survive beyond crystals, even though theoretical evidence is lacking. Motivated by these findings, we theoretically study a tight-binding model of amorphous transition metal monosilicides. We find that topological properties of multifold fermions survive in the presence of structural disorder that converts the semimetal into a diffusive metal. We characterize this topological diffusive metal phase with the spectral localizer, a real-space topological indicator that we show can signal multifold fermions. Our findings showcase how topological properties can survive in disordered metals, and how they can be uncovered using the spectral localizer.

description: Abstract: "Recursive linear structural equation models can be represented by directed acyclic graphs. When represented in this way, they satisfy the Markov Condition. Hence it is possible to use the graphical d-separation to determine what conditional independence relations are entailed by a given linear structural equation model. I prove in this paper that it is also possible to use the graphical d-separation applied to a cyclic graph to determine what conditional independence relations are entailed to hold by a given non-recursive linear structural equation model. I also give a causal intepretation to the linear coefficients in a non- recursive structural equation models, and explore the relationships between cyclic graphs and undirected graphs, directed acyclic graphs with latent variables, and chain independence graphs."

description: The isospin splitting of the nucleon mean field is derived from the Brueckner theory extended to asymmetric nuclear matter. The Argonne V18 has been adopted as bare interaction in combination with a microscopic three body force. The isospin splitting of the effective mass is determined from the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock self-energy: It is linear acording to the Lane ansatz and such that $m^*_n > m^*_p$ for neutron-rich matter. The symmetry potential is also determined and a comparison is made with the predictions of the Dirac-Brueckner approach and the phenomenological interactions. The theoretical predictions are also compared with the empirical parametrizations of neutron and proton optical-model potentials based on the experimental nucleon-nucleus scattering and the phenomenological ones adopted in transport-model simulations of heavy-ion collisions. The direct contribution of the rearrangement term due to three-body forces to the single particle potential and symmetry potential is discussed.

Generalized Pareto optimum and semi-classical spinors

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: In 1971, S.Smale presented a generalization of Pareto optimum he called the critical Pareto set. The underlying motivation was to extend Morse theory to several functions, i.e. to find a Morse theory for $m$ differentiable functions defined on a manifold $M$ of dimension $\ell$. We use this framework to take a $2\times2$ Hamiltonian ${\cal H}={\cal H}(p)\in C^\infty(T^*{\bf R}^2)$ to its normal form near a singular point of the Fresnel surface. Namely we say that ${\cal H}$ has the Pareto property if it decomposes, locally, up to a conjugation with regular matrices, as ${\cal H}(p)=u'(p)C(p)(u'(p))^*$, where $u:{\bf R}^2\to{\bf R}^2$ has singularities of codimension 1 or 2, and $C(p)$ is a regular Hermitian matrix ("integrating factor"). In particular this applies in certain cases to the matrix Hamiltonian of Elasticity theory and its (relative) perturbations of order 3 in momentum at the origin.

description: Quantum systems with engineered Hamiltonians can be used as simulators of many-body physics problems to provide insights beyond the capabilities of classical computers. Semiconductor gate-defined quantum dot arrays have emerged as a versatile platform for quantum simulation of generalized Fermi-Hubbard physics, one of the richest playgrounds in condensed matter physics. In this work, we employ a germanium 4$\times$2 quantum dot array and show that the naturally occurring long-range Coulomb interaction can lead to exciton formation and transport. We tune the quantum dot ladder into two capacitively-coupled channels and exploit Coulomb drag to probe the binding of electrons and holes. Specifically, we shuttle an electron through one leg of the ladder and observe that a hole is dragged along in the second leg under the right conditions. This corresponds to a transition from single-electron transport in one leg to exciton transport along the ladder. Our work paves the way for the study of excitonic states of matter in quantum dot arrays.

description: In this paper we propose a framework allowing to compute the effective interactions between two anisotropic macromolecules, thereby generalizing the DLVO theory to non spherical finite size colloids. We show in particular that the effective interaction potential remains anisotropic at all distances and provide an expression for the anisotropy factor. We then apply this framework to the case of finite rod-like polyelectrolytes. The calculation of the interaction energy requires the numerical computation of the surface charge profiles, which result here from a constant surface potential on the rod-like colloids. However, a simplified analytical description is proposed, leading to an excellent agreement with the full numerical solution. Conclusions on the phase properties of rod-like colloids are proposed in this context.

description: We present a systematic numerical study of two-dimensional axisymmetric accretion flows around black holes. The flows have no radiative cooling and are treated in the framework of the hydrodynamical approximation. The models calculated in this study cover the large range of the relevant parameter space. There are four types of flows, determined by the values of the viscosity parameter $α$ and the adiabatic index $γ$: convective flows, large-scale circulations, pure inflows and bipolar outflows. Thermal conduction introduces significant changes to the solutions, but does not create a new flow type. Convective accretion flows and flows with large-scale circulations have significant outward-directed energy fluxes, which have important implications for the spectra and luminosities of accreting black holes.

description: Cosmic strings are linear topological defects that may have been produced during symmetry-breaking phase transitions in the very early Universe. In an expanding Universe the existence of causally separate regions prevents such symmetries from being broken uniformly, with a network of cosmic string inevitably forming as a result. To faithfully generate observables of such processes requires computationally expensive numerical simulations, which prohibits many types of analyses. We propose a technique to instead rapidly emulate observables, thus circumventing simulation. Emulation is a form of generative modelling, often built upon a machine learning backbone. End-to-end emulation often fails due to high dimensionality and insufficient training data. Consequently, it is common to instead emulate a latent representation from which observables may readily be synthesised. Wavelet phase harmonics are an excellent latent representations for cosmological fields, both as a summary statistic and for emulation, since they do not require training and are highly sensitive to non-Gaussian information. Leveraging wavelet phase harmonics as a latent representation, we develop techniques to emulate string induced CMB anisotropies over a 7.2 degree field of view, with sub-arcminute resolution, in under a minute on a single GPU. Beyond generating high fidelity emulations, we provide a technique to ensure these observables are distributed correctly, providing a more representative ensemble of samples. The statistics of our emulations are commensurate with those calculated on comprehensive Nambu-Goto simulations. Our findings indicate these fast emulation approaches may be suitable for wide use in, e.g., simulation based inference pipelines. We make our code available to the community so that researchers may rapidly emulate cosmic string induced CMB anisotropies for their own analysis.

description: Emulsion gels represent a recent innovation in the domain of topical drug delivery systems. These emulsions are combined with an external gelling agent, thus offering numerous options for formulation and optimization. Emulsion gels facilitate the delivery of lipophilic drugs, in addition to enhanced physicochemical stability by the gel matrix. In comparison to conventional semisolid and spreadable formulations, crosslinked emulsion gels have the potential as new long-term therapeutic patches for dermal application. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) has been found to be a versatile option, capable of functioning as an emulsifier and a gelling agent via cryogelation, while also enabling the reduction of formulated components to a minimum. The present study investigates the role of the various oil phases within the emulsion in the context of emulsion stability with regard to freeze-thaw-cycling, emulsiongel formation as well as the ability to establish a controlled drug delivery system. An emulsion was prepared with a 5 % (w/w) solution of PVA 8-88 and medium-chain triglyceride (MCT), castor oil (CO) or rapeseed oil (RO) as the oil phase. Lidocaine was dissolved in the oils (c = 1 %) as a lipophilic active ingredient. To form the outer gel, the emulsion was combined with a 10 % (w/w) solution of PVA 56-98, generating an total oil content of 10 – 50 % (w/w). The resultant emulsion was then subjected to five freeze-thaw cycles (-20 °C to 20 °C) with conditions for cryogel production optimised in earlier studies. The obtained patches were characterised by oiling off measurement, tensile testing as well as in vitro release and permeation studies using Franz diffusion cells. Furthermore, the droplet sizes were measured by laser diffractometry after thermal de-crosslinking and Raman spectroscopy within the cross-linked emulsion gel patches. These results provide important insights into the oil loading capacity of the hydrogel matrix during freeze-thaw-cycling. In principle, all the oil phases analysed demonstrate a decrease in Young's modulus with an increase in the patch oil content. Furthermore, an optimal oil loading capacity of 30 % (w/w) was determined. In addition, an examination of the droplet sizes within the patches with varying oil content reveals no substantial increase in the size distribution after freeze-thaw-cycling. With regard to the drug delivery capabilities, a controlled release and permeation rate can be observed using different oil phases. The release rate shows an increase depending on the used oil in the order of CO < MCT < RO. In summary, PVA-based emulsion gel patches offer a new promising alternative for dermal patches, characterized by their high mechanical strength and ability to control the delivery of a lipophilic drug.

description: It has been claimed that whereas scalars can be bound to a Randall-Sundrum brane, higher p-form potentials cannot, in contradiction with the Hodge duality between 0-form and 3-form potentials in the five-dimensional bulk. Here we show that a 3-form in the bulk correctly yields a 2-form on the brane, in complete agreement with both bulk and brane duality. We also emphasize that the phenomenon of photon screening in the Randall-Sundrum geometry is ruled out by the bulk Einstein equation.

title: A view from the ground: the form and function of Litigants in Person (LIPs)
Creators: name: Begum, Farhana
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2025

description: This thesis seeks to contribute to the current scholarship surrounding the unabating tide of Litigants in Person in the Family Court. Broadly, the thesis will argue that the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (LASPO) has created 'new' court-users who require different assistance and responses from those who traditionally engaged with the Family Court. This is more so as court applications are often a once in a life-time event for court-users, and the journey of a court-user becomes a momentous experience. Equally, court outcomes have a significant impact on the daily life of a court-user. The significance of both the court journey and court outcomes suggests that legal-systems should be designed and aligned to support the experiences of court-users. To a large extent, legal system support was traditionally channelled through lawyers and through the availability of public funds by way of Legal Aid for those who could not afford to pay for a lawyer. However, within the trajectory of Lega
Sampling-Based Methods for Factored Task and Motion Planning

description: This paper presents a general-purpose formulation of a large class of discrete-time planning problems, with hybrid state and control-spaces, as factored transition systems. Factoring allows state transitions to be described as the intersection of several constraints each affecting a subset of the state and control variables. Robotic manipulation problems with many movable objects involve constraints that only affect several variables at a time and therefore exhibit large amounts of factoring. We develop a theoretical framework for solving factored transition systems with sampling-based algorithms. The framework characterizes conditions on the submanifold in which solutions lie, leading to a characterization of robust feasibility that incorporates dimensionality-reducing constraints. It then connects those conditions to corresponding conditional samplers that can be composed to produce values on this submanifold. We present two domain-independent, probabilistically complete planning algorithms that take, as input, a set of conditional samplers. We demonstrate the empirical efficiency of these algorithms on a set of challenging task and motion planning problems involving picking, placing, and pushing.
Self-stabilised fractality of sea-coasts through damped erosion

description: Erosion of rocky coasts spontaneously creates irregular seashores. But the geometrical irregularity, in turn, damps the sea-waves, decreasing the average wave amplitude. There may then exist a mutual self-stabilisation of the waves amplitude together with the irregular morphology of the coast. A simple model of such stabilisation is studied. It leads, through a complex dynamics of the earth-sea interface, to the appearance of a stationary fractal seacoast with dimension close to 4/3. Fractal geometry plays here the role of a morphological attractor directly related to percolation geometry.

Comments on the paper ``Polarimetric Constraints on the Optical Afterglow Emission from GRB 990123'' by Hjorth et al. (Science, 26 1999)

description: GRB 990123 is the most luminous event detected so far, and in an important paper, Hjorth et al. (1999) reported an upper limit on the degree of linear polarization of the optical afterglow for this burst (P <2.3%). One of the interprtations for this small value of P was that the emission was probably due a relativistic jet with ordered magnetic field, and the viewing angle in the lab frame theta' <= Gamma^{-1}, where Gamma is the bulk Lorentz factor of the jet at the time of the optical emission. We point out that this conclusion resulted from a confusion between the angles measured in the lab frame and in the plasma rest frame. For ordered magnetic field, one would actually obtain a large value of P because the above mentioned angle would correspond to a very large angle, theta <= π/2, in the plasma rest frame. And this is probably the case with the blazars. On the other hand, it is indeed possible to have P ~ 0 if the magnetic field of GRB 990123 was completely chaotic and the viewing angle was considerably smaller than the semi-angle of the jet.

description: We have investigated instability of a superconducting quantum computer by continuously monitoring the qubit output. We found that qubits exhibit a step-like change in the error rates. This change is repeatedly observed, and each step persists for several minutes. By analyzing the correlation between the increased errors and anomalous variance of the output, we demonstrate quantum error mitigation based on post-selection. Numerical analysis on the proposed method was also conducted.

Tidal Dissipation in WASP-12

description: WASP-12 is a hot Jupiter system with an orbital period of $P= 1.1\textrm{ day}$, making it one of the shortest-period giant planets known. Recent transit timing observations by Maciejewski et al. (2016) and Patra et al. (2017) find a decreasing period with $P/|\dot{P}| = 3.2\textrm{ Myr}$. This has been interpreted as evidence of either orbital decay due to tidal dissipation or a long term oscillation of the apparent period due to apsidal precession. Here we consider the possibility that it is orbital decay. We show that the parameters of the host star are consistent with either a $M_\ast \simeq 1.3 M_\odot$ main sequence star or a $M_\ast \simeq 1.2 M_\odot$ subgiant. We find that if the star is on the main sequence, the tidal dissipation is too inefficient to explain the observed $\dot{P}$. However, if it is a subgiant, the tidal dissipation is significantly enhanced due to nonlinear wave breaking of the dynamical tide near the star's center. The subgiant models have a tidal quality factor $Q_\ast'\simeq 2\times10^5$ and an orbital decay rate that agrees well with the observed $\dot{P}$. It would also explain why the planet survived for $\simeq 3\textrm{ Gyr}$ while the star was on the main sequence and yet is now inspiraling on a 3 Myr timescale. Although this suggests that we are witnessing the last $\sim 0.1\%$ of the planet's life, the probability of such a detection is a few percent given the observed sample of $\simeq 30$ hot Jupiters in $P<3\textrm{ day}$ orbits around $M_\ast>1.2 M_\odot$ hosts.

description: We analyze the nature of space-time nonlocality in string theory. After giving a brief overview on the conjecture of the space-time uncertainty principle, a (semi-classical) reformulation of string quantum mechanics, in which the dynamics is represented by the noncommutativity between temporal and spatial coordinates, is outlined. The formalism is then compared to the space-time noncommutative field theories associated with nonzero electric B-fields.

description: The renormalization of the chiral nuclear interactions is studied. In leading order, the cutoff dependence is related to the singular tensor interaction of the one-pion exchange potential. In S waves and in higher partial waves where the tensor force is repulsive this cutoff dependence can be absorbed by counterterms expected at that order. In the other partial waves additional contact interactions are necessary. The implications of this finding for the effective-field-theory program in nuclear physics are discussed.
