description: We continue the study of nonrelativistic string theory in background fields. Nonrelativistic string theory is described by a nonlinear sigma model that maps a relativistic worldsheet to a non-Lorentzian and non-Riemannian target space geometry, which is known to be string Newton-Cartan geometry. We develop the covariant background field method in this non-Riemannian geometry. We apply this background field method to compute the beta-functions of the nonlinear sigma model that describes nonrelativistic string theory on a string Newton-Cartan geometry background, in presence of a Kalb-Ramond two-form and dilaton field.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions.

description: Here we analyze the topology of the network formed by the minima and transition states on the potential energy landscape of small clusters. We find that this network has both a small-world and scale-free character. In contrast to other scale-free networks, where the topology results from the dynamics of the network growth, the potential energy landscape is a static entity. Therefore, a fundamentally different organizing principle underlies this behaviour: The potential energy landscape is highly heterogeneous with the low-energy minima having large basins of attraction and acting as the highly-connected hubs in the network.

description: Employing the most recent parametrization of the baryon-baryon interaction of the Nijmegen group, we investigate, in the framework of the Brueckner--Bethe--Goldstone many-body theory at zero temperature, the influence of neutrino trapping on the composition, equation of state, and structure of neutron stars, relevant to describe the physical conditions of a neutron star immediately after birth (protoneutron star). We find that the presence of neutrinos changes significantly the composition of matter delaying the appearance of hyperons and making the equation of state stiffer. We explore the consequences of neutrino trapping on the early evolution of a neutron star and on the nature of the final compact remnant left by the supernova explosion.

description: Silicon is an important material and many empirical interatomic potentials have been developed for atomistic simulations of it. Among them, the Tersoff potential and its variants are the most popular ones. However, all the existing Tersoff-like potentials fail to reproduce the experimentally measured thermal conductivity of diamond silicon. Here we propose a modified Tersoff potential and develop an efficient open source code called GPUGA (graphics processing units genetic algorithm) based on the genetic algorithm and use it to fit the potential parameters against energy, virial and force data from quantum density functional theory calculations. This potential, which is implemented in the efficient open source GPUMD (graphics processing units molecular dynamics) code, gives significantly improved descriptions of the thermal conductivity and phonon dispersion of diamond silicon as compared to previous Tersoff potentials and at the same time well reproduces the elastic constants. Furthermore, we find that quantum effects on the thermal conductivity of diamond silicon at room temperature are non-negligible but small: using classical statistics underestimates the thermal conductivity by about 10\% as compared to using quantum statistics.

description: Precise macromolecular engineering has led to tremendous advances in the design of nextgeneration materials. This has been largely due to significant synthetic efforts controlling the polymerization process to afford polymers with predictable molecular weights, compositions, narrow molecular weight distributions, high chain-end fidelity, and unique architectures. Polyelectrolytes and ionomers are a unique class of polymers that bear formal charges either
directly within or tethered to the polymer backbone. Combining controlled/living polymer design principles with tunable electrostatic interactions provides access to a wide range of functional materials. One area these polymers are used in are for solid-state ion conducting membranes, which
are essential components in electrochemical devices such as fuel cells. Frontiers of fuel cell development involves crafting stable anion exchange membranes that
have high hydroxide conductivity and resist chemical decomposition due to the highly caustic nature of hydroxide. Understanding the fundamental decomposition pathways of the tethered cations is crucial for obtaining durable, long-lifetime materials. This dissertation details some of
our efforts towards elucidating the degradation pathways of one class of organophosphorus cation and its incorporation into well-defined polymers using controlled/living polymerization methods.

title: Motion Control for Over-Actuated, Non-Affine Aerial Vehicles
Creators: name: López Milla, Javier
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED

description: Remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPASs) have turned out to be an indispensable asset for disaster relief forces. The fact that they possess the abilities to offer a fast scenario overview and to transport vital supplies makes them even more crucial. RPASs with hybrid capabilities are particularly relevant in such instances as they combine the advantages of multicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. They can take off and land vertically, meaning they only require only a small landing area. Their capability for aerodynamic flight makes them much more efficient, enabling long operational airborne time and range. However, this type of airframe is not easy to operate because a large set of actuators must be controlled along with the need to control unstable configurations (mainly during transitioning into forward flight). This study aimed to propose a comprehensive motion control algorithm to resolve the problem of controlling over-actuated, non-affine aerial vehicles. This is exemplified in an application for a tiltrotor aircraft structure. This type of airframe presents nonaffinity in its nacelle control input. The suggested control law is based on the implicit function theorem allowing the integration of the complete set of actuators (motors, control surfaces, and tilting nacelles) into a single-controller structure. With this incorporation, the controller can be seamlessly accommodated into a larger control scheme. In addition, the controller has deterministic properties through the derivation of the control law using the implicit function theorem, although it is fully transparent in its mechanization. These properties are relevant for certification. The methodology involved exploring the use of implicit functions on a general mathematical level and extending the existing theory to be used in over-actuated, non-affine aerial vehicles. The existence of such a comprehensive controller was first proven, and later, an implementation was proposed. The feasibility of the proposed control law was evaluated using a hardware-in-the-loop simulation. In this evaluation, the benefits of the control law (based on implicit functions) were compared with a state-of-the-art variable structure controller.

description: The physics of topological singularities, namely exceptional points (EPs), has been a key to wide range of intriguing and unique physical effects in non-Hermitian systems. In this context, the mutual interactions among four coupled states around fourth-order EPs (EP4s) are yet to be explored. Here we report a four-level parameter-dependent perturbed non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, mimicking quantum or wave-based systems, to explore the physical aspects of an EP4 analytically as well as numerically. The proposed Hamiltonian exhibit different orders of interaction schemes with the simultaneous presence of different higher-order EPs. Here an EP4 has been realized by mutual interaction between four coupled states with proper parameter manipulation. We comprehensively investigate the dynamics of corresponding coupled eigenvalues with stroboscopic parametric variation in the vicinity of the embedded EP4 to establish a new successive state-switching phenomenon among them; which proves to be robust even in the presence of different order of EPs. Implementing the relation of the perturbation parameters with the coupling control parameters, we exclusively report a region to host multiple EP4 in a specific system. The chiral behaviour of successive state-exchange has also been established near EP4. Proposed scheme enriched with physical aspects of EP4s should provide a new light manipulation tool in any anisotropic multi-state integrated system.

description: Lithium is used in rechargeable batteries that power electric cars in places like Europe. It is mined in places like the Andean salt flats, where it is found in underground brine deposits. Be cause of the energy transition it has been defined as a ‘critical’ raw material. How to come to terms with lithium’s strategic importance at a global scale? This article addresses this question by offering the provocation of an ethnographic moment. Based on a recent visit to the Swiss brine deposits (Schweizer Salinen) in Möhlin, it asks: What if lithium resembled more of a public good than a private commodity?

 My examination of the type material of Philonthus aluticollis, P. flavicoxis, and P. weiserianus established that these three species do not belong to the genus Philonthus but belong to the genus Belonuchus Nordmann. In Smetana´s (1995) key to Holarctic genera of Philonthina, these species will go to couplet 12, where they share with Belonuchus the “first four segments of front tarsus with ventral face bearing only regular, unmodified marginal setae; each simple, not dilated” and “lateral puncture of pronotum, bearing long seta, situated away from superior line of pronotal hypomeron, separated from it by distance at least three times as large as diameter of puncture”. Additionally, both P. aluticollis and P. flavicoxis (P. weiserianus, male unknown) show “parameres fused into one solid sclerite, lacking sensory peg setae, usually markedly reduced to short plate semifused with median lobe” as stated by Smetana (1995) for Belonuchus and also recognized by Chani-Posse de Maus (2008) for Endeius Coiffait and Sáiz. While this character seems to be common in Belonuchus, it may rarely appear in Philonthus (Smetana 1995). Up to this date, I have no information about the presence of such condition in Bisnius. On the other hand, Philonthus aluticollis, P. flavicoxis, and P. weiserianus differ from species belonging to Gabrius and Endeius by having the “last segment of labial palpus not appreciably narrower than preceding segment”.

description: We analyze the geometric engineering of the N=2 SU(2) gauge theories with $1\leq N_f\leq 3$ massive hypermultiplets in the vector representation. The set of partial differential equations satisfied by the periods of the Seiberg-Witten differential is obtained from the Picard-Fuchs equations of the local B-model. The differential equations and its solutions are consistent with the massless case. We show that the Yukawa coupling of the local A-model gives rise to the correct instanton expansion in the gauge theory, and propose the pattern of the distribution of the world-sheet instanton number from it. As a side result, we obtain the asymptotic form of the instanton number in the gauge theories with massless hypermultiplets.

description: Network modeling is a key enabler to achieve efficient network operation in future self-driving Software-Defined Networks. However, we still lack functional network models able to produce accurate predictions of Key Performance Indicators (KPI) such as delay, jitter or loss at limited cost. In this paper we propose RouteNet, a novel network model based on Graph Neural Network (GNN) that is able to understand the complex relationship between topology, routing, and input traffic to produce accurate estimates of the per-source/destination per-packet delay distribution and loss. RouteNet leverages the ability of GNNs to learn and model graph-structured information and as a result, our model is able to generalize over arbitrary topologies, routing schemes and traffic intensity. In our evaluation, we show that RouteNet is able to predict accurately the delay distribution (mean delay and jitter) and loss even in topologies, routing and traffic unseen in the training (worst case MRE=15.4%). Also, we present several use cases where we leverage the KPI predictions of our GNN model to achieve efficient routing optimization and network planning.

description: AbstractCoseismic fracturing in the strong, dry, and metastable plagioclase‐rich lower‐crust is an effective mechanism for creating pathways for fluids to infiltrate the host rock, kick‐start metamorphism, and potentially lead to rheological weakening. In this study, we have characterized the damage zone flanking a lower‐crustal pseudotachylyte (solidified frictional melt produced during seismic slip) within an anorthosite to determine the mechanisms of incipient aqueous fluid infiltration and redistribution in a lower‐crustal seismogenic fault. Pulverization‐style fracturing of the host anorthosite resulted in the comminution of the host plagioclase (plagioclase1) grains and the growth of very fine (<20 μm) grained secondary plagioclase neoblasts (plagioclase2) filling the fractures. Fluid‐assisted grain growth accompanied surface‐ and strain‐energy minimization grain growth in the healing and sealing of the fractures. This process was not associated with the densification nor the creation of new reaction‐induced porosity. Fourier transform infrared maps transecting the damage zones show the presence of H2O species along the plagioclase1 and plagioclase2 grain boundary regions, as well as incorporated into plagioclase2 grain interiors. Grain‐size sensitive creep of fine‐grained plagioclase localized along the pseudotachylyte margin where fracturing was most pervasive. In the absence of reaction‐induced porosity, strain localization is determined by repeated occurrences of extreme grain‐size reduction in addition to the mobilization of aqueous fluid to the grain boundary regions, to the extent in which these fine‐grained wet plagioclase2 layers are volumetrically dominant over dry, coarse plagioclase1 fragments. This forms a layer capable of deforming by grain‐size sensitive creep and sustaining the mobility of fluids.

description: This study elicites consumers' willingness to pay for an environmentally sustainable good that might not typically be purchased on its own. We isolate the value of these perfectly-complementary, auxiliary goods by endowing consumers with the complete good and giving them the opportunity to pay to upgrade the auxiliary component of the good. We employ a Becker-Degroot-Marschack auction design in a market setting to determine consumers' actual willingness to pay for the auxiliary good. We find consumers are willing to pay a $0.67--$1.12 premium for a bioplastic plant container over a traditional plastic one.

description: It is believed that primordial black holes (PBHs), if they exist, can serve as a powerful tool to probe the early stage of the cosmic history. Essentially, in the radiation dominated universe, PBHs could form by the gravitational collapse of overdense primordial perturbations produced during inflation. In this picture, one important ingredient is the threshold of density contrast, which defines the onset of PBH formation. In the literature, most of the estimations of threshold, no matter numerically or analytically, are implemented in the framework of general relativity (GR). In this paper, by performing analytic estimations, we point out that the threshold for PBH formation depends on the gravitational theory under consideration. In GR, given a fixed equation of state, the analytic estimations adopted in this paper give a constant value of the formation threshold. If the theory is characterized by additional mass scales other than the Planck mass, the estimated threshold of density contrast may depend on the energy scale of the universe at the time of PBH formation. In this paper, we consider the Eddington-inspired-Born-Infeld gravity as an example. We find that the threshold would be enhanced if the Born-Infeld coupling constant is positive, and would be suppressed for a negative coupling constant. Also, we show explicitly that the threshold depends on the energy scale of the universe at the PBH formation time. This conclusion is expected to be valid for any gravitational theory characterized by additional mass scales, suggesting the possibility of testing gravitational theories with PBHs.

description: To study the interaction of star-formation and turbulent molecular cloud structuring, we analyse numerical models and observations of self-gravitating clouds using the Delta-variance as statistical measure for structural characteristics. In the models we resolve the transition from purely hydrodynamic turbulence to gravitational collapse associated with the formation and mass growth of protostellar cores. We compare models of driven and freely decaying turbulence with and without magnetic fields. Self-gravitating supersonic turbulence always produces a density structure that contains most power on the smallest scales provided by collapsed cores as soon as local collapse sets in. This is in contrast to non-self-gravitating hydrodynamic turbulence where the Delta-variance is dominated by large scale structures. To detect this effect in star-forming regions observations have to resolve the high density contrast of protostellar cores with respect to their ambient molecular cloud. Using the 3mm continuum map of a star-forming cluster in Serpens we show that the dust emission traces the full density evolution. On the contrary, the density range accessible by molecular line observations is insufficient for this analysis. Only dust emission and dust extinction observations are able to to determine the structural parameters of star-forming clouds following the density evolution during the gravitational collapse.

description: Bose-Einstein condensation of antikaons in cold and dense beta-equilibrated matter under the influence of strong magnetic fields is studied within a relativistic mean field model. For magnetic fields $> 5 \times 10^{18}$G, the phase spaces of charged particles are modified resulting in compositional changes in the system. The threshold density of $K^-$ condensation is shifted to higher density compared with the field free case. In the presence of strong fields, the equation of state becomes stiffer than that of the zero field case.

description: We investigate room temperature lasing of terahertz quantum cascade lasers using quantum dot chains as active material suitable for wireless communication and imaging technologies. Bandstructure calculations for such extended systems of coupled quantum dots are made possible by a novel 'linear combination of quantum dot orbitals'--method, based on single quantum dot wavefunctions. Our results demonstrate strong vertical-emission of coupled quantum dots, reduced phonon coupling and in-plane scattering, enabling room-temperature lasing with significantly reduced threshold current densities.

description: In recent years a fashion has grown up to ascribe great importance to ``quantum critical points'' at T=0, at the boundary between the basins of attraction to the stable fixed points of ordered ground states. I argue that more physical significance in connecting microscopic interactions with observed phenomena lies in the common phenomenon of partially ordered ``liquid'' states at higher temperatures, unstable phases which define the relevant degrees of freedom and may order in many different ways as the temperature is further lowered.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt sich die Frage, wie sich Museen in Zeiten einer ‚Cancel Culture’ in ihrer Rolle für die Gesellschaft neu positionieren können. Um die Forschungsfrage zu beantworten, wurde eine Diskursstranganalyse über die Berichterstattung des französischen Malers Balthus vorgenommen, dessen Kunstwerke immer wieder zu Sexismus-Debatten führten. In der Arbeit wird die These verifiziert, dass Museen der Öffentlichkeit in ihrer Vielfalt nicht mehr genügend gerecht werden können. Die Diskursstranganalyse hat aufgezeigt, dass Cancel-Culture-Debatten in Museen notwendig sind, um ein diverseres Publikum anzusprechen und sich der gesellschaftlichen Vielfalt anzupassen.

description: Abstract: The 90K protein, also known as Mac-2 BP or LGALS3BP, can activate the immune response in part by increasing major histocompatibility (MHC) class I levels. In studies on a non-immune cell model, the rat FRTL-5 cell line, we observed that transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, like γ-interferon (IFN), increased 90K levels, despite its immunosuppressive functions and the ability to decrease MHC class I. To explain this paradoxical result, we investigated the mechanisms involved in the TGF-β1 regulation of 90K expression with the aim to demonstrate that TGF-β1 utilizes different molecular pathways to regulate the two genes. We found that TGF-β1 was able to increase the binding of Upstream Stimulatory Factors, USF1 and USF2, to an E-box element, CANNTG, at −1926 to −1921 bp, upstream of the interferon response element (IRE) in the 90K promoter. Thyrotropin (TSH) suppressed constitutive and γ-IFN-induced 90K expression by decreasing USF binding to the E-box. TGF-β1 was able to overcome TSH suppression at the transcriptional level by increasing USF binding to the E-box. We suggest that the ability of TGF-β1 to increase 90K did not result in an increase in MHC class I because of a separate suppressive action of TGF-β1 directly on the MHC class I gene. We propose that the increased levels of 90K may play a role, rather than in immune response, in the context of the TGF-β1-induced changing of the cellular microenvironment that predisposes to cell motility and cancer progression. Consistently, analyzing the publicly available cancer patient data sets cBioPortal, we found that 90K expression directly correlated with TGF-β1 and USFs and that high levels of 90K were significantly associated with increased mortality in patients affected by different types of cancer.
Large Volume Perspective on Branes at Singularities

description: In this paper we consider a somewhat unconventional approach for deriving worldvolume theories for D3 branes probing Calabi-Yau singularities. The strategy consists of extrapolating the calculation of F-terms to the large volume limit. This method circumvents the inherent limitations of more traditional approaches used for orbifold and toric singularities. We illustrate its usefulness by deriving quiver theories for D3 branes probing singularities where a Del Pezzo surface containing four, five or six exceptional curves collapses to zero size. In the latter two cases the superpotential depends explicitly on complex structure parameters. These are examples of probe theories for singularities which can currently not be computed by other means.

$Υ$ production in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 8.16 TeV

description: $Υ$ production in p-Pb interactions is studied at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 8.16 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC. The measurement is performed reconstructing bottomonium resonances via their dimuon decay channel, in the centre-of-mass rapidity intervals $2.03 < y_{\rm{cms}} < 3.53$ and $-4.46 < y_{\rm{cms}} < -2.96$, down to zero transverse momentum. In this work, results on the inclusive $Υ(1\rm{S})$ production cross section as a function of rapidity and transverse momentum are presented. The corresponding nuclear modification factor shows a suppression of the $Υ(1\rm{S})$ yields with respect to pp collisions, both at forward and backward rapidity. This suppression is stronger in the low transverse momentum region and shows no significant dependence on the centrality of the interactions. Furthermore, the $Υ(2\rm{S})$ nuclear modification factor is also evaluated, suggesting a suppression similar to that of the $Υ(1\rm{S})$. A first measurement of the $Υ(3\rm{S})$ has also been performed. Finally, results are compared with previous measurements performed by ALICE in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV and with theoretical calculations.
