description: Two-dimensional (2D) materials naturally form moiré patterns with other crystalline layers, such as other 2D material or the surface of a substrate. These patterns add a nanoscale characteristic length in the form of a superlattice: the moiré wavelength. Understanding the origin and characteristics of these patterns is crucial to design/interpret moiré-induced physical properties. Here, we use a mixed continuum mechanics + atomistic modeling to study two experimentally relevant epitaxial 2D materials -- graphene on Ir(111) and MoS$_2$ on Au(111) -- under extrinsic and intrinsic strain. We consider three different scenarios affecting substantially the lattice constant of the 2D materials, the wavelength and corrugation of the moiré pattern. (i) Under the influence of the interaction with the substrate, bending energy produces non trivial variations of the moiré properties, even when the strain is small; (ii) When locked on a progressively strained substrate via the valleys of the moiré, the membranes' nanorippling amplitude goes through several jumps related to relatively smaller jumps in the interatomic distance of the 2D materials; (iii) Finally, increasing the zero-deformation value of this interatomic distance (possibly controlable with temperature or illumination in experiments) the moiré wavelength can either increase or decrease.

Development of awaruite flotation conditions on serpentinite ores
Creators: name: Seiler, Santiago
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Nickel is a key component of stainless steel and a wide range of applications which are critical for the transition to clean energies including electric vehicle batteries. Awaruite is a native nickel-iron alloy, found in serpentinized ultramafic rocks, which has gained interest as a possible new economic source of nickel. The objective of this study is to contribute to the development of future nickel mines based on awaruite mineralizations. The contribution is based on providing awaruite physicochemical properties that were not available in literature and proposing novel conditions for the selective awaruite flotation from the gangue minerals present in serpentinite ores. This research is focused on the large Baptiste deposit in central British Columbia, Canada where awaruite is the primary nickel mineral. The awaruite composition from the Baptiste deposit averaged 77.3% nickel, 21.0% iron, 1.1% cobalt and 0.6% copper. The measured initial volumetric magnetic susceptibility for native awaruite was 14.4 and the saturation magnetization was 750 kA/m. Awaruite readily floated in weakly acidic solution with a xanthate collector but not in neutral and alkaline solutions. The passivation layer formed in neutral and alkaline solutions showed to inhibit the interaction between xanthate and awaruite surface. Nickel recoveries of up to 65% at the rougher stage were obtained with xanthate as collector at a pH level of 4.5 in bench scale flotation tests. Rougher followed by cleaner stages of flotation showed that a high-grade concentrate can be produced with up to 45% nickel, 1.3% cobalt, 0.7% copper and negligible concentrations of penalty elements, such as arsenic, lead, selenium among others. However, high reagent dosages are required in weakly acidic conditions since xanthate decomposes at low pH and ultramafic rocks are acid consumers. To overcome the drawbacks of awaruite flotation in weakly acidic conditions, selective activation reagents were evaluated. The awaruite passivation layer formed in neutral and alkaline conditions can, at least, be partially dissolved in the presence of low concentrations of ammonium sulfate and thiosulfate in neutral conditions. This reagent scheme allows the flotation of awaruite in conditions where xanthate is stable and reduces the acid addition required to adjust the pH.

description: In a quantum Markov chain, the temporal succession of states is modeled by the repeated action of a "bistochastic quantum operation" on the density matrix of a quantum system. Based on this conceptual framework, we derive some new results concerning the evolution of a quantum system, including its long-term behavior. Among our findings is the fact that the Ces$\grave{a}$ro limit of any quantum Markov chain always exists and equals the orthogonal projection of the initial state upon the eigenspace of the unit eigenvalue of the bistochastic quantum operation. Moreover, if the unit eigenvalue is the only eigenvalue on the unit circle, then the quantum Markov chain converges in the conventional sense to the said orthogonal projection. As a corollary, we offer a new derivation of the classic result describing limiting distributions of unitary quantum walks on finite graphs \cite{AAKV01}.

description: A review is given about astrometric, ground-based surveys including plate measure machines and CCD techniques. The Astrographic Catalogue project of around 1900 was the first of its kind, followed by AGK2, AGK3, Palomar and other Schmidt plate surveys and modern astrographs dedicated for astrometry (Hamburg, USNO). The full potential of those surveys could only recently be realized using accurate plate measure machines (PDS, NOFS, StarScan, DAMIAN). The UCAC project was the first all-sky astrometric survey performed using a CCD detector, while the URAT program was the last such ground-based effort.

description: «Questo intervento tenta di offrire tre spunti di riflessione sul complesso tema della democraticità delle istituzioni europee, alla luce delle innovazioni apportate dal Trattato di Lisbona. Alcuni degli ultimi sviluppi normativi e istituzionali mostrano infatti come l’integrazione politica europea non sia in una fase totalmente ed esclusivamente recessiva, nonostante il suo recente sviluppo si collochi all’interno di un contesto economico di crisi profonda: costringendo le istituzioni politiche ed economiche a delle scelte gravose e impopolari, la crisi contribuisce ad amplificare l’idea di un’Europa dei tecnocrati e finisce con l’evidenziare soprattutto gli aspetti connessi all’integrazione economica e monetaria. Nonostante oggi gli strumenti giuridici di integrazione politica siano di più, più robusti rispetto al passato, e capaci di produrre dei risultati apprezzabili anche con riferimento al potenziamento del circuito rappresentativo, le istituzioni eurounionali scontano ancora, almeno in parte, una sorta di suggestione collettiva che fa percepire i processi decisionali come più opachi e il deficit democratico come più profondo di quanto in realtà non siano. »...

description: The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) began in 1992 and it has now become one of the world's largest optical surveys devoted to searching for variability in the sky. During its long history, the OGLE survey collected about one trillion individual photometric measurements for over two billion stars in the Milky Way and in nearby galaxies. These data has led to many discoveries in various fields of astronomy: gravitational lensing and microlensing, extrasolar planets, structure of galaxies, cosmic distance scale, Kuiper belt objects, etc. Variable stars occupy a special position among the most important achievements of the survey. The OGLE Collection of Variable Stars currently contains nearly one million objects of various types and this is the largest set of variable stars ever obtained by any astronomical project. I will present the most spectacular OGLE discoveries in the field of variable stars.

description: We study the azimuthal angle and transverse momentum dependence of dilepton production from hot and magnetized hadronic matter using $ρ^0$-meson dominance. The thermomagnetic spectral function of the $ρ^0$ is evaluated using the real time method of thermal field theory and Schwinger proper-time formulation. A continuous spectrum is obtained in which there is sizeable Landau cut contributions in the low invariant mass region as a consequence of finite background field. The emission rate of the dileptons is found to be significantly anisotropic in this region and the later effectively increases with the strength of the background field. In addition, we also evaluate the elliptic flow parameter ($v_2$) as a function of invariant mass for different values of magnetic field and temperature. We find that in low invariant mass region $v_2$ remains positive at lower values of $eB$ signifying that the production rate could be larger along the direction transverse to the background field. This behaviour is consistent with the angular dependence of dilepton production rate.

description: Optimal transport enables one to construct a metric on the set of (sufficiently small at infinity) probability measures on any (not too wild) metric space X, called its Wasserstein space W(X). In this paper we investigate the geometry of W(X) when X is a Hadamard space, by which we mean that $X$ has globally non-positive sectional curvature and is locally compact. Although it is known that -except in the case of the line- W(X) is not non-positively curved, our results show that W(X) have large-scale properties reminiscent of that of X. In particular we define a geodesic boundary for W(X) that enables us to prove a non-embeddablity result: if X has the visibility property, then the Euclidean plane does not admit any isometric embedding in W(X).
description: This second version contains only the first part of the preceeding one. The visibility properties of W(X) and the isometric rigidity have been split off to other articles after a referee's comment

description: We present an engineered version of the divide-and-conquer algorithm for finding the closest pair of points, within a given set of points in the XY-plane. For this version of the algorithm we show that only two pairwise comparisons are required in the combine step, for each point that lies in the 2 delta-wide vertical slab. The correctness of the algorithm is shown for all Minkowski distances with p>=1. We also show empirically that, although the time complexity of the algorithm is still O(n lg n), the reduction in the total number of comparisons leads to a significant reduction in the total execution time, for inputs with size sufficiently large.

description: The Evryscope, built by astronomers at the University of North Carolina, was deployed at CTIO in May 2015 and represents the world's first full-sky gigapixel-scale telescope. With its 24 separate individual telescopes sharing a common mount, the system images an 8000 square degree field of view once every two minutes. The Evryscope has been building 1\%-precision, high-cadence light curves for all accessible objects brighter than 16th magnitude since August 2016 and will continue to do so for several more years. With the final Evryscope reduction pipeline having just been completed, multi-year light curves are now being produced for millions of Southern-hemisphere stars. Here I present an overview of the telescope's design and performance, and I discuss early science results with a focus on M dwarf flares, variable hot subdwarf systems, exoplanet discovery  characterization, and optical transients.

Engaging in and responding to daily positive events : roles of personality and age
Creators: name: Klaiber, Patrick
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Mounting evidence suggests that positive events are linked to better health and well-being, yet little is known about what contributes to how frequently one engages in positive events (engagement), how one responds to these events, and how diverse these experiences are (positive event diversity). This dissertation focuses on the contributions of age and personality in the experience of daily positive events and the implications of these events for health and well-being. Study 1 (N = 776) examined age as a predictor of daily positive and negative events during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Spring of 2020, a time of major stress and uncertainty across all segments of society. Compared to younger and middle-aged adults, older adults experienced fewer daily stressors, more positive events, and smaller reductions in negative affect when positive events occurred. Study 2 (Ns = 1919, 778) focused on the Big Five personality traits as predictors of engagement, responsiveness, and emotional experiences during positive events. Extraversion and Openness predicted a greater likelihood of experiencing positive events in daily life, and each of the Big Five traits predicted emotions experienced during the positive events such as feelings of calm, pride, and surprise. Finally, Study 3 (Ns = 1919, 778, 1393) introduced the novel concept of positive event diversity, an index of the distribution of positive events across different event types (e.g., social, work, home, nature). Contrary to the hypotheses, positive event diversity was related to worse affective well-being for people who reported high positive event frequency but was unrelated to affective well-being for people who reported low positive event frequency. In addition, positive event diversity was not linked to any of the Big Five personality traits after controlling for positive event frequency. Collectively, this series of studies sheds light on individual differences and adult developmental factors that contribute to the types of daily positive events experienced and the affective benefits generated from positive events. This knowledge can inform further investigations into pathways connecting positive events with long-term health as well as inform the development of interventions targeting daily positive events to bolster health and well-being.
How to defuse Earth impact threat announcements

description: Summary: In the past decade both scientists and laymen have probably heard at least once through the newspapers, TV and Internet that a new asteroid has been discovered with non-zero (sometimes "high") probability of collision with the Earth in the near future. Since early 2000's, such probabilities are routinely calculated by two impact monitoring systems (one in the US, the other in Europe) on preliminary orbits of newly discovered Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs), and are regularly updated whenever additional new astrometric observations for each threatening object become available. A typical pattern is that as the orbit becomes more precisely determined, impact probability often increases initially, but then turns around and decreases until it falls to zero, or some very low number. In the present study we define a probability measure which provides a simple tool to evaluate from the very beginning the chance that the impact probability calculated by monitoring systems for a threatening object will reach unity at the end of the overall process of orbit refinement. We stress that this chance is independent of the specific (fluctuating) value of the probability calculated by the monitoring systems. In a precise sense, which should be clear throughout the paper, the concrete impact probability of a newly discovered asteroid is not that given by the monitoring systems.

description: We discuss the feasibility of and present initial designs and cost estimates for a large (N~2000) network of small photometric telescopes that is purpose-built to monitor V$$15 Gaia Mission program stars for occultations by minor solar system bodies. The implementation of this network would permit measurement of the solar system's tidal gravity field to high precision, thereby revealing the existence of distant trans-Neptunian objects such as the proposed “Planet Nine". As a detailed example of the network capabilities, we investigate how occultations by Jovian Trojans can be monitored to track the accumulation of gravitational perturbations, thereby constraining the presence of undetected massive solar system bodies. In particular, we show that the tidal influence of Planet Nine can be discerned from that of smaller, nearer Kuiper belt objects. Moreover, ephemerides for all small solar system bodies observed in occultation could be significantly improved using this network, thereby improving spacecraft navigation and refining Solar System N-body modeling. Finally, occultation monitoring would generate direct measurements of size distributions for asteroid populations, permitting a better understanding of their origins.

description: CCD observations of the asteroids are obtained with the 0.80/1.20 m, f/3 Baldone Schmidt telescope of the Baldone observatory (code 069) of the Institute of Astronomy of University of Latvia. Now the telescope is equipped with two CCD STX-16803 36 X 36 mm cameras. In the Minor Planet Circulars and the Minor Planet Electronic Circulars we published 3511 astrometric positions of 826 asteroids. Among them, 48 asteroids were newly discovered at Baldone. For 36 of these asteroids the precise orbits were calculated. The orbits and the evolution of orbital elements of two interesting asteroids, (428694) 2008 OS9 from the Apollo group and the Centaur (330836) Orius (2009 HW77), were recalculated including new observations obtained after 2011.
         From the earliest years of data, the archive of Baldone Schmidt telescope contain more than 22 000 direct wide field images. Digital processing of photographic plates of star field allow, in addition to the main tasks to carry out a massive search for images of small bodies of the solar system and determine their coordinates. From the observations of earlier epoch, we can extract information about the locations of these bodies well before discovering them. Modern approach to processing early photographic observations with new technologies can be an effective instrument for rediscovery of asteroids and obtain correction their orbits. We analyzed the results of observations of clusters in UBVR bands and some ultraviolet plates of other star fields made on the 1.2-m Baldone Schmidt telescope.
         At the moment, all images of known minor planets on 70 plates with 9.8 – 17.1 stellar magnitude were identified. The catalog of positions and magnitudes of the searching asteroids was compiled. Among them are detected positions for 10 asteroids which at the time of observation were the earliest of the world’s known observations of these asteroids. All asteroids positions were compared with the ephemeris JPl DE431.

O meglio, per essere più precisi e aderire alla terminologia politologica, dobbiamo parlare di una metamorfosi della sovranità, tenendo ben presente che quando utilizziamo questo termine stiamo concentrando la nostra attenzione su un fenomeno centrale del consesso umano. Almeno a partire dalla nascita dello Stato inteso in senso moderno, con sovranità intendiamo “il potere supremo della dominazione dello Stato sulle persone che entrano nella sfera della sua giurisdizione” (Beaud 1994: 53).

description: In this paper we present a method for exact generation of multivariate samples with pre-specified marginal distributions and a given correlation matrix, based on a mixture of Fréchet-Hoeffding bounds and marginal products. The bivariate algorithm can accommodate any among the theoretically possible correlation coefficients, and explicitly provides a connection between simulation and the minimum correlation attainable for different distribution families. We calculate the minimum correlations in several common distributional examples, including in some that have not been looked at before. As an illustration, we provide the details and results of implementing the algorithm for generating three-dimensional negatively and positively correlated Beta random variables, making it the only non-copula algorithm for correlated Beta simulation in dimensions greater than two. This work has potential for impact in a variety of fields where simulation of multivariate stochastic components is desired.

description: «Nella rappresentazione funzionalista l’adozione della moneta unica costituiva una conseguenza naturale del mercato unico, della inevitabile necessità di disporre, in un mercato ormai completamente unificato, di un solo mezzo di pagamento (Rapporto Delors 1989). La scelta dell’Euro rappresentava, inoltre, dopo la caduta del muro di Berlino e la riunificazione tedesca, il tentativo dell’Europa di emanciparsi dall’egemonia finanziaria del dollaro e di individuare un proprio autonomo ruolo nel contesto della globalizzazione. Senza dimenticare la valenza propriamente simbolica della moneta, in quanto tale: un oggetto che avrebbe dovuto rendere l’Unione più tangibile e visibile ai propri cittadini (Pagliarecci 2007). L’idea che la moneta in quanto tale avrebbe unificato le culture europee e generato per partenogenesi la politica si è rilevata, tuttavia, un’illusione (Paggi 2011), nella misura in cui l’assenza della solidarietà di bilancio (formalmente vietata dall’art. 125 del TFUE) e di adeguati meccanismi istituzionali di correzione degli squilibri macroeconomici ha progressivamente ampliato le divergenze tra gli Stati membri (Fitoussi 2013)»...

description: Algorithmic entropy can be seen as a special case of entropy as studied in statistical mechanics. This viewpoint allows us to apply many techniques developed for use in thermodynamics to the subject of algorithmic information theory. In particular, suppose we fix a universal prefix-free Turing machine and let X be the set of programs that halt for this machine. Then we can regard X as a set of 'microstates', and treat any function on X as an 'observable'. For any collection of observables, we can study the Gibbs ensemble that maximizes entropy subject to constraints on expected values of these observables. We illustrate this by taking the log runtime, length, and output of a program as observables analogous to the energy E, volume V and number of molecules N in a container of gas. The conjugate variables of these observables allow us to define quantities which we call the 'algorithmic temperature' T, 'algorithmic pressure' P and algorithmic potential' mu, since they are analogous to the temperature, pressure and chemical potential. We derive an analogue of the fundamental thermodynamic relation dE = T dS - P d V + mu dN, and use it to study thermodynamic cycles analogous to those for heat engines. We also investigate the values of T, P and mu for which the partition function converges. At some points on the boundary of this domain of convergence, the partition function becomes uncomputable. Indeed, at these points the partition function itself has nontrivial algorithmic entropy.

description: In this talk, I will describe the efforts done by the Wendelstein observatory in following up known exoplanets and planet candidates both spectroscopically and photometrically. We are currently installing a high-resolution spectrograph, calibrated with an LFC, and a simultaneous 3-channel camera that covers photometric bands between u and Ks. With the latter, we are currently performing a transit survey where we observe primary and secondary in order to determine their Transit Colour Signature (TraCS).

description: Deep learning based intrusion detection systems (DL-based IDS) have emerged as one of the best choices for providing security solutions against various network intrusion attacks. However, due to the emergence and development of adversarial deep learning technologies, it becomes challenging for the adoption of DL models into IDS. In this paper, we propose a novel IDS architecture that can enhance the robustness of IDS against adversarial attacks by combining conventional machine learning (ML) models and Deep Learning models. The proposed DLL-IDS consists of three components: DL-based IDS, adversarial example (AE) detector, and ML-based IDS. We first develop a novel AE detector based on the local intrinsic dimensionality (LID). Then, we exploit the low attack transferability between DL models and ML models to find a robust ML model that can assist us in determining the maliciousness of AEs. If the input traffic is detected as an AE, the ML-based IDS will predict the maliciousness of input traffic, otherwise the DL-based IDS will work for the prediction. The fusion mechanism can leverage the high prediction accuracy of DL models and low attack transferability between DL models and ML models to improve the robustness of the whole system. In our experiments, we observe a significant improvement in the prediction performance of the IDS when subjected to adversarial attack, achieving high accuracy with low resource consumption.

description: The determination of the mass function (MF) of stars as a function of environment and metallicity is of fundamental importance, e.g., for understanding the star formation process, the mass-to-light ratios of galaxies, and the evolution of galaxies. The pixel microlensing technique applied to images of M31 with a 2m class telescope is able to constrain the mass function of stars and remnants for the bulge of M31. The bulge of M31 is metal rich and old and in this respect very different from the environments for which for e.g. the faint-end MF can be determined up to now. On the other hand, its stellar population is similar to the one of massive elliptical galaxies. High quality observations with a PSF better than 0.8 arcsec over several weeks of the M31 bulge can yield enough micro lensing events to discriminate between some of the major currently discussed faint-end MFs (e.g. Kroupa, Zoccali, Chabrier) and additionally provide the number and distribution of stellar remnants and therefore the complete M/L ratio.

description: After the astonishing discovery of seven Earth-sized planets around TRAPPIST-1, a Jupiter-sized star only 12 pc away, the hunt for temperate, rocky exoplanets goes into its next phase. The SPECULOOS survey is a new transit survey focusing on the ~1000 brightest (K$\leq$12.5) ultra-cool dwarfs (spectral type M7 or later). Its main objective is to detect temperate terrestrial worlds well-suited for detailed atmospheric characterization with upcoming JWST and ELTs. It also aims to probe the frequency and diversity of short-period planets around the lowest-mass stars and brown dwarfs. In this talk, I will present SPECULOOS, its current status, as well as its first results.
