description: Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra and let $U_0(A)$ be the group of unitaries of $A$ which are path connected to the identity. Denote by $CU(A)$ the closure of the commutator subgroup of $U_0(A).$ Let $i_A^{(1, n)}\colon U_0(A)/CU(A)\rightarrow U_0(\mathrm M_n(A))/CU(\mathrm M_n(A))$ be the \hm\, defined by sending $u$ to ${\rm diag}(u,1_n).$ We study the problem when the map $i_A^{(1,n)}$ is an isomorphism for all $n.$ We show that it is always surjective and is injective when $A$ has stable rank one. It is also injective when $A$ is a unital $C^*$-algebra of real rank zero, or $A$ has no tracial state. We prove that the map is an isomorphism when $A$ is the Villadsen's simple AH--algebra of stable rank $k>1.$ We also prove that the map is an isomorphism for all Blackadar's unital projectionless separable simple $C^*$-algebras. Let $A=\mathrm M_n(C(X)),$ where $X$ is any compact metric space. It is noted that the map $i_A^{(1, n)}$ is an isomorphism for all $n.$ As a consequence, the map $i_A^{(1, n)}$ is always an isomorphism for any unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ that is an inductive limit of finite direct sum of $C^*$-algebras of the form $\mathrm M_n(C(X))$ as above. Nevertheless we show that there are unital $C^*$-algebras $A$ such that $i_A^{(1,2)}$ is not an isomorphism.

description: We use near-infrared interferometric data coupled with trigonometric parallax values and spectral energy distribution fitting to directly determine stellar radii, effective temperatures, and luminosities for the exoplanet host stars 61 Vir, $ρ$ CrB, GJ 176, GJ 614, GJ 649, GJ 876, HD 1461, HD 7924, HD 33564, HD 107383, and HD 210702. Three of these targets are M dwarfs. Statistical uncertainties in the stellar radii and effective temperatures range from 0.5% -- 5% and from 0.2% -- 2%, respectively. For eight of these targets, this work presents the first directly determined values of radius and temperature; for the other three, we provide updates to their properties. The stellar fundamental parameters are used to estimate stellar mass and calculate the location and extent of each system's circumstellar habitable zone. Two of these systems have planets that spend at least parts of their respective orbits in the system habitable zone: two of GJ 876's four planets and the planet that orbits HD 33564. We find that our value for GJ 876's stellar radius is more than 20% larger than previous estimates and frequently used values in the astronomical literature.

description: We report the first robust measurement of the Milky Way star formation history using the imprint left on chemical abundances of long-lived stars. The formation of the Galactic thick disc occurs during an intense star formation phase between 9.0 (z~1.5) and 12.5 Gyr (z~4.5) ago and is followed by a dip (at z~1.1) lasting about 1 Gyr. Our results imply that the thick disc is as massive as the Milky Way's thin disc, suggesting a fundamental role of this component in the genesis of our Galaxy, something that had been largely unrecognized. This new picture implies that huge quantities of gas necessary to feed the building of the thick disc must have been present at these epochs, in contradiction with the long-term infall assumed by chemical evolution models in the last two decades. These results allow us to fit the Milky Way within the emerging features of the evolution of disc galaxies in the early Universe.

description: The articles compiled in the book endorse the view that the elite class deliberately distorted the image of the heroes of Dalits and lower castes. The projection of Mahishasur as a demon was part of the Aryans' strategy of oppression. History, however, tells a different tale. The Brahmins wrote all the religious scriptures, including the Vedas and the Puranas, and they are basically anti-Dalit. They were meant to culturally enslave the Dalits and blunt their consciousness. This is continuing even today.

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: We consider the structure of the N(H I) - E(B-V) relationship when H I is measured in the 21 cm radio line and \EBV\ is defined by far-IR dust-derived measures. We derive reddening-dependent corrections to N(H I) based on interferometric absorption measurements over the past 30 years that follow a single power-law relationship $\int τ(H I) dv = 14.07 ~\kms\ $\EBV$^{1.074}$ at 0.02 $\la$ \EBV\ $\la$ 3 mag. Corrections to 21cm line-derived H I column densities are too small to have had any effect on the ratio N(H I)/\EBV\ $= 8.3 \times 10^{21}\pcc$ mag$^{-1}$ we derived at 0.015 $\la$ \EBV\ $\la$ 0.075 mag and \absb\ $\ge$ 20\degr; they are also too small to explain the break in the slope of the N(H I) - \EBV\ relation at \EBV\ $\ga$ 0.1 mag that we demonstrated around the Galaxy at \absb $\ge 20$\degr. The latter must therefore be attributed to the onset of \HH-formation and we show that models of \HH\ formation in a low density diffuse molecular gas can readily explain the inflected N(H I)- \EBV\ relationship. Below \absb\ = 20\degr\ N(H I)/\EBV\ measured at 0.015 $\la$ \EBV\ $\la$ 0.075 mag increases steadily down to \absb\ = 8\degr\ where sightlines with small \EBV\ no longer occur. By contrast, the ratio N(H I)/\EBV\ measured over all \EBV\ declines to N(H I)/\EBV\ $= 5-6 \times 10^{21}\pcc$ mag$^{-1}$ at \absb\ $\la 30$\degr, perhaps providing an explanation of the difference between our results and the gas/reddening ratios measured previously using stellar spectra.

Inseparability Criterion Using Higher-Order Schrödinger-Robertson Uncertainty Relation

description: We formulate an inseparability criterion based on the recently derived generalized Schrödinger-Robertson uncertainty relation (SRUR) [Ivan {\it et al.} J. Phys. A :Math. Theor. {\bf 45}, 195305 (2012)] together with the negativity of partial transpose (PT). This generalized SRUR systematically deals with two orthogonal quadrature amplitudes to higher-orders, so is relevant to characterize non-Gaussian quantum statistics. We first present a method that relies on the single-mode marginal distribution of two-mode fields under PT followed by beam-splitting operation. We then extend the SRUR to two-mode cases and develop a full two-mode version of inseparability criterion. We find that our formulation can be useful to detect entanglement of non-Gaussian states even when, e.g., the entropic criterion that also involves higher-order moments fails.

description: The primordial power spectrum describes the initial perturbations in the Universe which eventually grew into the large-scale structure we observe today, and thereby provides an indirect probe of inflation or other structure-formation mechanisms. Here, we introduce a new method to estimate this spectrum from the empirical power spectrum of cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps. A sparsity-based linear inversion method, coined \textbf{PRISM}, is presented. This technique leverages a sparsity prior on features in the primordial power spectrum in a wavelet basis to regularise the inverse problem. This non-parametric approach does not assume a strong prior on the shape of the primordial power spectrum, yet is able to correctly reconstruct its global shape as well as localised features. These advantages make this method robust for detecting deviations from the currently favoured scale-invariant spectrum. We investigate the strength of this method on a set of WMAP 9-year simulated data for three types of primordial power spectra: a nearly scale-invariant spectrum, a spectrum with a small running of the spectral index, and a spectrum with a localised feature. This technique proves to easily detect deviations from a pure scale-invariant power spectrum and is suitable for distinguishing between simple models of the inflation. We process the WMAP 9-year data and find no significant departure from a nearly scale-invariant power spectrum with the spectral index $n_s = 0.972$. A high resolution primordial power spectrum can be reconstructed with this technique, where any strong local deviations or small global deviations from a pure scale-invariant spectrum can easily be detected.

description: DNA copy number and mRNA expression are widely used data types in cancer studies, which combined provide more insight than separately. Whereas in existing literature the form of the relationship between these two types of markers is fixed a priori, in this paper we model their association. We employ piecewise linear regression splines (PLRS), which combine good interpretation with sufficient flexibility to identify any plausible type of relationship. The specification of the model leads to estimation and model selection in a constrained, nonstandard setting. We provide methodology for testing the effect of DNA on mRNA and choosing the appropriate model. Furthermore, we present a novel approach to obtain reliable confidence bands for constrained PLRS, which incorporates model uncertainty. The procedures are applied to colorectal and breast cancer data. Common assumptions are found to be potentially misleading for biologically relevant genes. More flexible models may bring more insight in the interaction between the two markers.

description: Integration of inertial navigation system (INS) and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is usually implemented in engineering applications by way of Kalman-like filtering. This form of INS/GNSS integration is prone to attitude initialization failure, especially when the host vehicle is moving freely. This paper proposes an online constrained-optimization method to simultaneously estimate the attitude and other related parameters including GNSS antenna's lever arm and inertial sensor biases. This new technique benefits from self-initialization in which no prior attitude or sensor measurement noise information is required. Numerical results are reported to validate its effectiveness and prospect in high accurate INS/GNSS applications.

description: We investigate the origin of purported "spin accumulation" signals observed in local "three-terminal" (3T) measurements of ferromagnet/insulator/n-Si tunnel junctions using inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy (IETS). Voltage bias and magnetic field dependences of the IET spectra were found to account for the dominant contribution to 3T magnetoresistance signals, thus indicating that it arises from inelastic tunneling through impurities and defects at junction interfaces and within the barrier, rather than from spin accumulation due to pure elastic tunneling into bulk Si as has been previously assumed.

description: A semi-classical model based on quantum time concepts is presented for the evaluation of bremsstrahlung emission probabilities in alpha decay of nuclei. The contribution to the bremsstrahlung emission from the different regions in tunneling is investigated using realistic double folded nuclear and Coulomb potentials. Within this model, the contribution from the radiation emitted in front of the barrier before tunneling is much larger than that while leaving the barrier. A comparison with the data on $^{210}$Po shows that the results are sensitive to the nuclear potential and the rectangular well used in many of the quantum mechanical approaches can even give qualitatively different results.

description: In this paper, chiral symmetry breaking and its restoration are investigated in the mean field approximation of Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. A first-order phase transition exists at low temperature, but is smeared out at high temperature. We discuss the rationality of using susceptibilities as the criteria to determine the crossover region as well as the critical point. Based on our results, it is found that to define a critical band instead of an exclusive line in this region might be a more suitable choice.

description: We use cosmology-independent measurements of the expansion history in the redshift range 0.1 < z <1.2 and compare them with the Cosmic Microwave Background-derived expansion history predictions. The motivation is to investigate if the tension between the local (cosmology independent) Hubble constant H0 value and the Planck-derived H0 is also present at other redshifts. We conclude that there is no tension between Planck and cosmology independent-measurements of the Hubble parameter H(z) at 0.1 < z < 1.2 for the LCDM model (odds of tension are only 1:15, statistically not significant). Considering extensions of the LCDM model does not improve these odds (actually makes them worse), thus favouring the simpler model over its extensions. On the other hand the H(z) data are also not in tension with the local H0 measurements but the combination of all three data-sets shows a highly significant tension (odds ~ 1:400). Thus the new data deepen the mystery of the mismatch between Planck and local H0 measurements, and cannot univocally determine wether it is an effect localised at a particular redshift. Having said this, we find that assuming the NGC4258 maser distance as the correct anchor for H0, brings the odds to comfortable values. Further, using only the expansion history measurements we constrain, within the LCDM model, H0 = 68.5 +- 3.5 and Omega_m = 0.32 +- 0.05 without relying on any CMB prior. We also address the question of how smooth the expansion history of the universe is given the cosmology independent data and conclude that there is no evidence for deviations from smoothness on the expansion history, neither variations with time in the value of the equation of state of dark energy.

description: Reusable launch vehicle stages face intense heat fluxes, particularly during reentry. Thermal protection systems (TFS) are essential for winged stages decelerating through aerodynamic forces, requiring coverage of large vehicle areas. In the case of reusable systems with integral cryogenic tanks, the TFS is exposed to extremely low propellant temperatures. Joint design and integration of TFS and cryogenic insulation are necessary, considering their interdependent nature. The AKIRA project initiated by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) initially explored this area, continued through the TRANSIENT project. Test objects representing RL V propellant tank sections were manufactured with combined TFS and cryogenic insulation, undergoing mechanical and thermal load testing. Initial integration and experimental results are presented.

description: Three dual systems estimates are employed to study the number of killings in southern rural Norway in a period of slightly over 250 years. The first system is a set of five letters sent to each killer as part of the legal process. The second system is the mention of killings from all other contemporary sources. The posterior distributions derived suggest fewer such killings than rough demographic estimates.

description: प्रमोद रंजन द्वारा संपादित यह किताब इतिहास और संस्कृति के क्षेत्र में सदियों से चली आ रही पंरपरा और रूढ़ियों को तोड़ती है और शोषण के तंत्र को मजबूत बनाने वाले तथा दलित-पिछड़ी जातियों को गुलाम बनाए रखने की सांस्कृतिक अवधारणाओं को जबरदस्त चुनौती देती हैं। ऐसा कर के संपादक ने समकालीन इतिहास की एक बड़ी ज़रूरत को पूरा करने की कोशिश की है। यह किताब इस दृष्टि से आंखें खोलने वाली है।
description: इस किताब में संकलित लेखों से यह धारणा पुष्ट होती है कि अभिजन समाज ने दलितों और निम्न जातियों के दमन के लिए उनके नायकों का बहुत ही गलत ढंग से चित्रण किया है और जनमानस में यह धारणा रूढ़ की गई है कि महिषासुर राक्षस था। जबकि ऐतिहासिक तथ्य कुछ अलग ही सच्चाई का बयान कर रहे हैं। यहां यह कहना ग़लत नहीं होगा कि जितने भी धर्मशास्त्र रचे गए, वेद और पुराण लिखे गए, वे ब्राह्मणों ने लिखे और उनमें जो कहानियां हैं, वो दलित-विरोधी हैं, उन्हें सांस्कृतिक रूप से गुलाम बनाने के लिए, उनकी चेतना को कुंद करने के लिए इनका इस्तेमाल किया जाता रहा है। अभी भी ऐसा ही किया जा रहा है।

description: A region of two-dimensional space has been filled randomly with large number of growing circular discs allowing only a `slight' overlapping among them just before their growth stop. More specifically, each disc grows from a nucleation center that is selected at a random location within the uncovered region. The growth rate $δ$ is a continuously tunable parameter of the problem which assumes a specific value while a particular pattern of discs is generated. When a growing disc overlaps for the first time with at least another disc, it's growth is stopped and is said to be `frozen'. In this paper we study the percolation properties of the set of frozen discs. Using numerical simulations we present evidence for the following: (i) The Order Parameter appears to jump discontinuously at a certain critical value of the area coverage; (ii) the width of the window of the area coverage needed to observe a macroscopic jump in the Order Parameter tends to vanish as $δ\to 0$ and on the contrary (iii) the cluster size distribution has a power law decaying functional form. While the first two results are the signatures of a discontinuous transition, the third result is indicative of a continuous transition. Therefore we refer this transition as a sharp but continuous transition similar to what has been observed in the recently introduced Achlioptas process of Explosive Percolation. It is also observed that in the limit of $δ\to 0$, the critical area coverage at the transition point tends to unity, implying the limiting pattern is space-filling. In this limit, the fractal dimension of the pore space at the percolation point has been estimated to be $1.42(10)$ and the contact network of the disc assembly is found to be a scale-free network.

description: We investigate the radial dependence of the spectral break separating the inertial from the dissipation range in power density spectra of interplanetary magnetic field fluctuations, between $0.42$ and $5.3$ AU, during radial alignments between MESSENGER and WIND for the inner heliosphere and between WIND and ULYSSES for the outer heliosphere. We found that the spectral break moves to higher and higher frequencies as the heliocentric distance decreases. The radial dependence of the corresponding wavenumber is of the kind $κ_b\sim R^{-1.08}$ in good agreement with that of the wavenumber derived from the linear resonance condition for proton cyclotron damping. These results support conclusions from previous studies which suggest that a cyclotron-resonant dissipation mechanism must participate into the spectral cascade together with other possible kinetic noncyclotron-resonant mechanisms.

description: With the development of space technology, how to realize the real-time and high-accuracy prediction of the spacecraft? Physical field plays an important role in intelligent control and status detection. Traditionally, this is achieved by some sensors at the key location. However, the sensors provide limited information about the spacecraft. Thus, reconstructing the physical field can greatly improve the status detection of the spacecraft. Moreover, considering the subsystems within a spacecraft?s close relationships, we have proposed the field reconstruction of the spacecraft based on graph neural networks. Firstly, we model the subsystems of a spacecraft into a mathematical graph and embed the relationships between the subsystems and the monitoring sensors by the edges of graph. Then we construct a graph neural network to extract the hidden features of the limited sensors through an encoder and obtain the whole physical field of the spacecraft via a decoder. As one of the deep learning models, the graph neural network can provide a real-time prediction of the field, and the embedding of the relationships within the spacecraft could help improve the precision of the final prediction. By this graph neural networks, we have realized the realtime and high-precision reconstruction of the whole field, which can help the intelligent control and status detection of a spacecraft.

Utilitarian Opacity Model for Aggregate Particles in Protoplanetary Nebulae and Exoplanet Atmospheres

description: As small solid grains grow into larger ones in protoplanetary nebulae, or in the cloudy atmospheres of exoplanets, they generally form porous aggregates rather than solid spheres. A number of previous studies have used highly sophisticated schemes to calculate opacity models for irregular, porous particles with size much smaller than a wavelength. However, mere growth itself can affect the opacity of the medium in far more significant ways than the detailed compositional and/or structural differences between grain constituents once aggregate particle sizes exceed the relevant wavelengths. This physics is not new; our goal here is to provide a model that provides physical insight and is simple to use in the increasing number of protoplanetary nebula evolution, and exoplanet atmosphere, models appearing in recent years, yet quantitatively captures the main radiative properties of mixtures of particles of arbitrary size, porosity, and composition. The model is a simple combination of effective medium theory with small-particle closed-form expressions, combined with suitably chosen transitions to geometric optics behavior. Calculations of wavelength-dependent emission and Rosseland mean opacity are shown and compared with Mie theory. The model's fidelity is very good in all comparisons we have made, except in cases involving pure metal particles or monochromatic opacities for solid particles with size comparable to the wavelength.

'Behind the measure of all things': Exploring the Case of a Psychometric Test to Measure Sexual Orientation in India

description: This paper examines the curious case of a psychometric scale to measure sexual orientation published in India post the decriminalization of homosexuality in 2018. Investigating the hermeneutical choices made by the developer of the scale in various stages of its construction, I argue that the scale’s treatment of sexual orientation as a measurable construct necessitates a politics of willfully sustained ignorance (Pohlhaus 2012). By carefully deploying the ignorance of queer lives and realities, the scale generates mistrust for self-disclosure, sanitizes sexual orientation of its socially deviant elements, and creates a straitjacket of sexual identities to override the agential power of the test-taking subject. Based on an evaluation of the unjust research practices embedded in the scale’s development, I suggest that there is a need to re-evaluate the ethical responsibilities of the scientist in generating knowledge about vulnerably situated groups.
Stellar laboratories II. New Zn IV and Zn V oscillator strengths and their validation in the hot white dwarfs G191-B2B and RE0503-289

description: For the spectral analysis of high-resolution and high-signal-to-noise spectra of hot stars, state-of-the-art non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) model-atmospheres are mandatory. These are strongly dependent on the reliability of the atomic data that is used for their calculation. In a recent analysis of the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum of the DA-type white dwarf G191-B2B, 21 Zn IV lines were newly identified. Because of the lack of Zn IV data, transition probabilities of the isoelectronic Ge VI were adapted for a first, coarse determination of the photospheric Zn abundance. We performed new calculations of Zn IV and Zn V oscillator strengths to consider their radiative and collisional bound-bound transitions in detail in our NLTE stellar-atmosphere models for the analysis of the Zn IV - V spectrum exhibited in high-resolution and high-S/N UV observations of G191-B2B and RE0503-289. In the UV spectrum of G191-B2B, we identify 31 Zn IV and 16 Zn V lines. Most of these are identified for the first time in any star. We can reproduce well almost all of them at log Zn = -5.52 +/- 0.2 (mass fraction, about 1.7 times solar). In particular, the Zn IV / Zn V ionization equilibrium, which is a very sensitive indicator for the effective temperature, is well reproduced with the previously determined Teff = 60000 +/- 2000 and log g = 7.60 +/- 0.05. In the spectrum of RE0503-289, we identified 128 Zn V lines for the first time and determined log Zn = -3.57 +/- 0.2 (155 times solar). Reliable measurements and calculations of atomic data are a pre-requisite for stellar-atmosphere modeling. Observed Zn IV and Zn V line profiles in two white dwarf (G191-B2B and RE0503-289) ultraviolet spectra were well reproduced with our newly calculated oscillator strengths. This allowed us to determine the photospheric Zn abundance of these two stars precisely.
