Otomys tropicalis

description: Otomys tropicalis Thomas, 1902. Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 7, 10:314. TYPE LOCALITY: Kenya, west slope of Mt. Kenya, 3000 m. DISTRIBUTION: Irregular highland distribution in W Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and bordering Zaire; outlying populations on Mount Cameroon. SYNONYMS: burtoni, dollmani, elgonis, faradjius, ghigii, nubilus, ruberculus, vivax, vulcanicus. COMMENTS: Regarded as conspecific with O. irroratus by Bohmann (1952) and accordingly recognized in regional treatments (Delany, 1975; Kingdon, 1974); however, others have maintained the southern African form irroratus as specifically distinct from eastern African tropicalis (De Graaff, 1981; Meester et al., 1986; Misonne, 1974). Even so, the taxa herein assembled under tropicalis (after Misonne, 1974) remain a composite of two or more species, whose definition and range will require careful revisionary work, involving simultaneous attention to possible relationships with species-group taxa now lumped under O. typus (see next account).

description: We report on fast electro-optic switching (response time 0.1 ms) of a blue-phase-polymer templated nematic with a broad-temperature range of thermodynamic stability and hysteresis-free performance. The nematic fills a polymer template that imposes a periodic structure with cubic symmetry and submicron period. In the field-free state, the nematic in polymer template is optically isotropic. An applied electric field causes non-zero optical retardance. The approach thus combines beneficial structural and optical features of the blue phase (cubic structure with submicron periodicity) and superior thermodynamic stability and electro-optic switching ability of the nematic filler.

description: Otomys typus Heuglin, 1877. Reise in Nordost-Afrika, 2:77. TYPE LOCALITY: Abyssinia (= Ethiopia), Shoa. DISTRIBUTION: Disjunct occurrence at high elevations in E Africa, from Ethiopian highlands south through Uganda and W Kenya, to the Nyika Plateau of N Malawi and adjacent Zambia and to the Uzungwe Mnts of C Tanzania. SYNONYMS: dartmouthi, degeni, fortior, giloensis, helleri, jacksoni, malkensis, malleus, orestes, percivali, thomasi, squalus, uzungwensis, zinki. COMMENTS: Dieterlen (1968) and Petter (1982) viewed typus as another variant of a highly polymorphic O. irroratus , a conclusion which seems at odds with their morphological discrimination as presented elsewhere (e.g., Ansell, 1978; Bohmann, 1952; Kingdon, 1974; Misonne, 1974). The list of synonyms observes the classifications of Bohmann (1952) and Misonne (1974). Their conspecific stature is highly suspect and invites rigorous specimen-based corroboration that also addresses possible relationships to certain forms masquerading under tropicalis. The occurrence of greater species endemism thoughout the isolated East African highlands and volcanoes deserves more serious consideration than it has received to date.

description: We present a general solution of the Einstein gravitational field equations for the static spherically symmetric gravitational interior spacetime of an isotropic fluid sphere. The solution is obtained by transforming the pressure isotropy condition, a second order ordinary differential equation, into a Riccati type first order differential equation, and using a general integrability condition for the Riccati equation. This allows us to obtain an exact non-singular solution of the interior field equations for a fluid sphere, expressed in the form of infinite power series. The physical features of the solution are studied in detail numerically by cutting the infinite series expansions, and restricting our numerical analysis by taking into account only $n=21$ terms in the power series representations of the relevant astrophysical parameters. In the present model all physical quantities (density, pressure, speed of sound etc.) are finite at the center of the sphere. The physical behavior of the solution essentially depends on the equation of state of the dense matter at the center of the star. The stability properties of the model are also analyzed in detail for a number of central equations of state, and it is shown that it is stable with respect to the radial adiabatic perturbations. The astrophysical analysis indicates that this solution can be used as a realistic model for static general relativistic high density objects, like neutron stars.

description: The sliding friction force exerted by stochastic linkers interacting with a moving filament is calculated. The elastic properties of the substrate on which the linkers are anchored are shown to strongly influence the friction force. In some cases, the force is maximal for a finite substrate rigidity. Collective effects give rise to a dynamical instability resulting in a stick-slip behaviour, which is substrate-sensitive. The relevance of these results for the motility of crawling cells powered by an actin retrograde flow is discussed.

DISTRIBUTION: NW Cape Province, through the Great and Little Karroo, to E Cape Province, South Africa. SYNONYMS: albaniensis, bergensis, broomi, grantii. COMMENTS: A species having a relictual distribution and exhibiting many traits interpreted as plesiomorphic for the subfamily (e.g., Bohmann, 1952). Genetic distance data reported by Taylor et al. (1989) suggest the inclusion of unisulcatus with species of Parotomys, an intriguing possibility that deserves substantiation with a broader taxonomic sampling. Allozymic variation unappreciable over species range and questions validity of subspecific divisions (see Van Dyk et al., 1991).

description: We consider generalized gravitational entropy in various higher derivative theories of gravity dual to four dimensional CFTs using the recently proposed regularization of squashed cones. We derive the universal terms in the entanglement entropy for spherical and cylindrical surfaces. This is achieved by constructing the Fefferman-Graham expansion for the leading order metrics for the bulk geometry and evaluating the generalized gravitational entropy. We further show that the Wald entropy evaluated in the bulk geometry constructed for the regularized squashed cones leads to the correct universal parts of the entanglement entropy for both spherical and cylindrical entangling surfaces. We comment on the relation with the Iyer-Wald formula for dynamical horizons relating entropy to a Noether charge. Finally we show how to derive the entangling surface equation in Gauss-Bonnet holography.

Generalized conditional entropy in bipartite quantum systems

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We analyze, for a general concave entropic form, the associated conditional entropy of a quantum system A+B, obtained as a result of a local measurement on one of the systems (B). This quantity is a measure of the average mixedness of A after such measurement, and its minimum over all local measurements is shown to be the associated entanglement of formation between A and a purifying third system C. In the case of the von Neumann entropy, this minimum determines also the quantum discord. For classically correlated states and mixtures of a pure state with the maximally mixed state, we show that the minimizing measurement can be determined analytically and is universal, i.e., the same for all concave forms. While these properties no longer hold for general states, we also show that in the special case of the linear entropy, an explicit expression for the associated conditional entropy can be obtained, whose minimum among projective measurements in a general qudit-qubit state can be determined analytically, in terms of the largest eigenvalue of a simple 3x3 correlation matrix. Such minimum determines the maximum conditional purity of A, and the associated minimizing measurement is shown to be also universal in the vicinity of maximal mixedness. Results for X states, including typical reduced states of spin pairs in XY chains at weak and strong transverse fields, are also provided and indicate that the measurements minimizing the von Neumann and linear conditional entropies are typically coincident in these states, being determined essentially by the main correlation. They can differ, however, substantially from that minimizing the geometric discord.

description: Parotomys brantsii (A. Smith, 1834). S. Afr. Quart. J., Ser. 2, 2: 150. TYPE LOCALITY: South Africa, Cape Province, Little Namaqualand, "toward the mouth of the Orange River." DISTRIBUTION: C and NW Cape Province, South Africa, to SW Botswana and SE Namibia. SYNONYMS: deserti, luteolus, pallida, rufifrons. COMMENTS: Although Port Nolloth, as restricted by Thomas and Schwann (1904:178), is usually cited as the type locality of P. brantsii (e.g., Ellerman et al., 1953; Meester et al., 1986), a careful reading of Thomas and Schwann suggests that they had actually associated one of Smith's cotypes with a series collected at Klipfontein, a place some 50 miles inland from Port Nolloth. The notion that the type locality was "restricted" to Port Nolloth apparently stems from an inadvertent indication in Roberts (1951). A future revisor of the species should clarify this matter.

description: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) have revolutionized the field of advanced robotics in recent years. AI, ML, and DL are transforming the field of advanced robotics, making robots more intelligent, efficient, and adaptable to complex tasks and environments. Some of the applications of AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics include autonomous navigation, object recognition and manipulation, natural language processing, and predictive maintenance. These technologies are also being used in the development of collaborative robots (cobots) that can work alongside humans and adapt to changing environments and tasks. The AI, ML, and DL can be used in advanced transportation systems in order to provide safety, efficiency, and convenience to the passengers and transportation companies. Also, the AI, ML, and DL are playing a critical role in the advancement of manufacturing assembly robots, enabling them to work more efficiently, safely, and intelligently. Furthermore, they have a wide range of applications in aviation management, helping airlines to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and improve customer satisfaction. Moreover, the AI, ML, and DL can help taxi companies in order to provide better, more efficient, and safer services to customers. The research presents an overview of current developments in AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems and discusses various applications of the systems in robot modification. Further research works regarding the applications of AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems are also suggested in order to fill the gaps between the existing studies and published papers. By reviewing the applications of AI, ML, and DL in advanced robotics systems, it is possible to investigate and modify the performances of advanced robots in various applications in order to enhance productivity in advanced robotic industries.
New Insights into the Lamb Shift: The Spectral density of the Shift
Creators: name: Maclay, G. Jordan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In an atom, the interaction of a bound electron with the vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field leads to complex shifts in the energy levels of the electron, with the real part of the shift corresponding to a shift in the energy level and the imaginary part to the width of the energy level. The most celebrated radiative shift is the Lamb shift between the $2S_{1/2}$ and the $2P_{1/2}$ levels of the hydrogen atom.~The measurement of this shift in 1947 by Willis Lamb Jr. proved that the prediction by Dirac theory that the energy levels were degenerate was incorrect. Hans~Bethe's calculation of the shift demonstrated the renormalization process required to deal with the divergences plaguing the existing theories and led to the understanding that it was essential for theory to include interactions with the zero-point quantum vacuum field. This was the birth of modern quantum electrodynamics (QED). Other calculations of the Lamb shift followed by Welton and Power in an effort to clarify the physical mechanisms leading to the shift. We have done a calculation of the shift using a group theoretical approach which gives the shift as an integral over frequency of a function, which we call the spectral density of the shift. The spectral density reveals how different frequencies contribute to the total energy shift. We find, for example, that half the radiative shift for the ground state 1S level in H comes from photon energies below 9700 eV, and that the expressions by Power and Welton do not have the correct low frequency behavior, although they do give approximately the correct value for the total shift.

description: Once thought to be devoid of warm and cold interstellar matter, elliptical galaxies are now commonly observed to host extended regions of neutral and ionized gas. Outside of the innermost nuclear regions of these galaxies, the favoured candidate ionizing source remains some component of the stellar population, with mounting evidence suggesting post-asymptotic-giant-branch stars (pAGBs). In a recent paper, we demonstrated that observations of recombination lines of He II (or upper limits thereof) may provide a strong constraint on the presence of any other, higher temperature ionizing sources, in particular nuclear-burning white dwarfs in the context of the single degenerate (SD) scenario for type Ia supernovae. The sensitivity of the HeII test is greatest for WD effective temperatures ~ 2 x 10^5 K. Here we extend our analysis to include predictions for all of the "classical" strong optical lines, as well as UV, optical, and infra-red lines of neutral Oxygen, Nitrogen, and singly-ionized Carbon. This allows us to extend the temperature range over which we can meaningfully constrain the collective luminosity of nuclear-burning WDs to 10^5 K

description: As the number of credit card users has increased, detecting fraud in this domain has become a vital issue. Previous literature has applied various supervised and unsupervised machine learning methods to find an effective fraud detection system. However, some of these methods require an enormous amount of time to achieve reasonable accuracy. In this paper, an Asexual Reproduction Optimization (ARO) approach was employed, which is a supervised method to detect credit card fraud. ARO refers to a kind of production in which one parent produces some offspring. By applying this method and sampling just from the majority class, the effectiveness of the classification is increased. A comparison to Artificial Immune Systems (AIS), which is one of the best methods implemented on current datasets, has shown that the proposed method is able to remarkably reduce the required training time and at the same time increase the recall that is important in fraud detection problems. The obtained results show that ARO achieves the best cost in a short time, and consequently, it can be considered a real-time fraud detection system.

description: Graph representation learning (also known as network embedding) has been extensively researched with varying levels of granularity, ranging from nodes to graphs. While most prior work in this area focuses on node-level representation, limited research has been conducted on graph-level embedding, particularly for dynamic or temporal networks. However, learning low-dimensional graph-level representations for dynamic networks is critical for various downstream graph retrieval tasks such as temporal graph similarity ranking, temporal graph isomorphism, and anomaly detection. In this paper, we present a novel method for temporal graph-level embedding that addresses this gap. Our approach involves constructing a multilayer graph and using a modified random walk with temporal backtracking to generate temporal contexts for the graph's nodes. We then train a "document-level" language model on these contexts to generate graph-level embeddings. We evaluate our proposed model on five publicly available datasets for the task of temporal graph similarity ranking, and our model outperforms baseline methods. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in generating graph-level embeddings for dynamic networks.

description: The quantum phase transition between the three dimensional Dirac semimetal and the diffusive metal can be induced by increasing disorder. Taking the system of disordered $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological insulator as an important example, we compute the single particle density of states by the kernel polynomial method. We focus on three regions: the Dirac semimetal at the phase boundary between two topologically distinct phases, the tricritical point of the two topological insulator phases and the diffusive metal, and the diffusive metal lying at strong disorder. The density of states obeys a novel single parameter scaling, collapsing onto two branches of a universal scaling function, which correspond to the Dirac semimetal and the diffusive metal. The diverging length scale critical exponent $ν$ and the dynamical critical exponent $z$ are estimated, and found to differ significantly from those for the conventional Anderson transition. Critical behavior of experimentally observable quantities near and at the tricritical point is also discussed.

description: Subfamily Petromyscinae Roberts, 1951. Mammals S Africa, p. 434. COMMENTS: Of the two genera in this subfamily, Delanymys and Petromyscus, Lavocat (1964) wrote that their molar cusp patterns showed structural links between Mystromys and the dendromurines, a view shared by Verheyen (1965b). Petter (1967b), however, interpreted the derived molar traits shared by Delanymys and Petromyscus to indicate close phylogenetic alliance and he united them in the subfamily Petromyscinae, also pointing out that they had no close relationship to dendromurines. Carleton and Musser (1984) provided a diagnosis, characterization, and other remarks on contents and definition of the Petromyscinae. They also noted that aside from the shared molar peculiarities, the two genera are very different from one another and may not be part of the same monophyletic group. The subfamily is represented in the Plio-Pleistocene by the South African Stenodontomys darti (Pocock, 1987).

description: Deconfined quark matter may exist in a crystalline color-superconducting phase in the interiors of compact stars. In this paper, we study the torsional oscillations of compact stars featuring a crystalline color-superconducting quark-matter core in general relativity. Depending on the size of the crystalline core and the value of the gap parameter $Δ$, we find that the frequencies of the torsional oscillation modes can range from a few hundred hertz to a few kilohertz for our canonical $1.4 M_\odot$ compact star models. We have also studied the prospect for detecting the gravitational-wave signals emitted from these modes in a pulsar glitch event. Assuming that at least $10\%$ of the energy released in a Vela glitch can be channeled to the oscillation modes, we find that the Einstein Telescope should be able to detect these signals in quite general situations. Furthermore, if the size of the crystalline core is comparable to the stellar radius and the gap parameter is relatively small at $Δ\sim 5$ MeV, the signal-to-noise ratio for Advanced LIGO could reach $\sim$10 for a Vela glitch. Our optimistic results suggest that we might already be able to probe the nature of crystalline color-superconducting quark matter with the second-generation gravitational-wave detectors when they come online in the next few years.

description: Medicines exist for combating illnesses and drug stores provide an outlet for consumers to gain access to these drugs. However, due to various factors such as cost of production, accessibility and legal issues as well as distribution factors, availability of these drugs at any location cannot be guaranteed at all times. There is need for individuals and organizations such as hospitals to be able to locate required drugs within given geographical vicinity. This is of immense importance especially during emergencies, travel, and in cases where the drugs are uncommon. This research work is aimed at solving this problem by designing a system that integrates all drugstores. The integration of the drug stores will be based on SOA concepts with web services via a central service bus. The database systems of the drug stores will be integrated via a service bus such that drugs can easily be searched for and the results will be displayed based on its availability. Drugs can easily be searched for within geographically distributed pharmaceutical databases as well as consumption of drugs with relation to geographical locations can easily be monitored and tracked. This will make it easy for health institutions to research on drug consumption patterns across geographical areas and also control their usage.

description: We present a comprehensive study of the velocity dispersion of the atomic (HI) and molecular (H2) gas components in the disks (R < R25) of a sample of 12 nearby spiral galaxies with moderate inclinations. Our analysis is based on sensitive high resolution data from the THINGS (atomic gas) and HERACLES (molecular gas) surveys. To obtain reliable measurements of the velocity dispersion, we stack regions several kilo-parsecs in size, after accounting for intrinsic velocity shifts due to galactic rotation and large-scale motions. We stack using various parameters: the galacto-centric distance, star formation rate surface density, HI surface density, H2 surface density, and total gas surface density. We fit single Gaussian components to the stacked spectra and measure median velocity dispersions for HI of 11.9 +/- 3.1 km/s and for H2 of 12.0 +/- 3.9 km/s. The CO velocity dispersions are thus, surprisingly, very similar to the corresponding ones of HI, with an average ratio of sigma(HI)/sigma(CO) = 1.0 +/- 0.2 irrespective of the stacking parameter. The measured CO velocity dispersions are significantly higher (factor 2) than the traditional picture of a cold molecular gas disk associated with star formation. The high dispersion implies an additional thick molecular gas disk (possibly as thick as the HI disk). Our finding is in agreement with recent sensitive measurements in individual edge-on and face-on galaxies and points towards the general existence of a thick disk of molecular gas, in addition to the well-known thin disk in nearby spiral galaxies.

description: Software testing is one of the crucial supporting processes of the software life cycle. Unfortunately for the software industry, the role is stigmatized, partly due to misperception and partly due to treatment of the role. The present study aims to analyze the situation to explore what restricts computer science and software engineering students from taking up a testing career in the software industry. To conduct this study, we surveyed 88 Pakistani students taking computer science or software engineering degrees. The results showed that the present study supports previous work into the unpopularity of testing compared to other software life cycle roles. Furthermore, the findings of our study showed that the role of tester has become a social role, with as many social connotations as technical implications.

description: FLIPR® membrane potential dye measures changes of charges across the cell membrane, upon activation of SLC6A8. The assay allows the detection of ion channel and transporter modulation by increasing or decreasing the fluorescent signal as cellular membrane potential changes. When cells are depolarized dye enters the cells, causing an increase in fluorescent signal, conversely, cells hyperpolarization results in dye exit and decreased fluorescence. SLC6A8) is a Na+/Cl- coupled electrogenic cotransporter, with a 2 Na+:1 Cl-:1 creatine stoichiometry, thus determining dye signal increase upon activation. It mediates creatine uptake into a variety of cells, including neuronal cells, skeletal and cardiac muscle cells and intestinal and kidney epithelial cells and it is important in the maintenance of ATP homeostasis in tissues that have high energy requirement.
