The targum (1978:May 1 - 1978:May 10)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1978

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

title: Teaching the Holocaust in History: Policy and Classroom Perspectives
Creators: name: Russell, Lucy
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2005

description: This thesis presents an examination of the position of the Holocaust in the National Curriculum for History and of history teachers' interpretation and presentation of this topic. The Interim Report of the History Working Group, which was set up in 1989 to advise the Secretary of State for Education on the form the History Curriculum should take, did not recommend the Holocaust - or the Second World War – as topics for study. This decision was reversed and the Holocaust was included, as an aspect of World War two, in the Group's Final Report. Drawing on a series of interviews with members of the History Working Group, and analysis of their working documentation, this thesis examines and explains this apparent 'u-turn'. Subsequent amendments and revisions to the National Curriculum for History which have resulted in the increasing prominence of the Holocaust, currently one of only four named historical events which must be taught, are set out. In examining the position of the Holocaust in the National Curriculum two key debates are considered: the role of school history and the uniqueness of the Holocaust. There are a number of issues involved in teaching the Holocaust in history which go beyond the usual considerations of lesson planning and resourcing: it would appear the key issue is that teachers are unclear about whether the rationale behind the inclusion of the Holocaust on the History National Curriculum is primarily historical, social or moral. In order to get closer to an answer to this problem this thesis brings together two foci: the history of the Holocaust as a National Curriculum topic and the presentation of this topic in the history classroom. Interviews with teachers of history are drawn upon in addressing the latter strand. It becomes evident that there was a lack of clarity among those who shaped the National Curriculum for History regarding the aims and objectives of including the topic of the Holocaust. This thesis argues that this lack of clarity at the Centre is reflected in the many and varied approaches to teaching the Holocaust found in the history classroom.
Spiral-wave-driven accretion in quiescent dwarf novæ

description: In dwarf novæ and low-mass X-ray binaries, the tidal potential excites spiral waves in the accretion disc. Spiral wave driven accretion may be important in quiescent discs, where the angular momentum transport mechanism has yet to be identified. Previous studies were limited to unrealistically high temperatures for numerical studies or to specific regimes for analytical studies. We perform the first numerical simulation of spiral wave driven accretion in the cold temperature regime appropriate to quiescent discs, which have Mach numbers > 100. We use the new GPU-accelerated finite volume code Idefix to produce global hydrodynamics 2D simulations of the accretion discs of dwarf novæ systems with a fine-enough spatial resolution to capture the short scale-height of cold, quiescent discs with Mach numbers ranging from 80 to 370. Running the simulations on timescales of tens of binary orbits shows transient angular momentum transport that decays as the disc relaxes from its initial conditions. We find the angular momentum parameter α drops to values << 0.01 , too weak to drive accretion in quiescence.

description: We compute the multiplicity of the irreducible representations in the decomposition of the tensor product of an arbitrary number $n$ of fundamental representations of $SU(N)$, and we identify a duality in the representation content of this decomposition. Our method utilizes the mapping of the representations of $SU(N)$ to the states of free fermions on the circle, and can be viewed as a random walk on a multidimensional lattice. We also derive the large-$n$ limit and the response of the system to an external non-abelian magnetic field. These results can be used to study the phase properties of non-abelian ferromagnets and to take various scaling limits.

description: Blockchain technology constitutes a paradigm shift in the way we conceive distributed architectures. A Blockchain system lets us build platforms where data are immutable and tamper-proof, with some constraints on the throughput and the amount of memory required to store the ledger. This paper aims to solve the issue of memory and performance requirements developing a multiple Blockchain architecture that mixes the benefits deriving from a public and a private Blockchain. This kind of approach enables small sensors - with memory and performance constraints - to join the network without worrying about the amount of data to store. The development is proposed following a context-aware approach, to make the architecture scalable and easy to use in different scenarios.
Coequalisers under the Lens

subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Lenses encode protocols for synchronising systems. We continue the work begun by Chollet et al. at the Applied Category Theory Adjoint School in 2020 to study the properties of the category of small categories and asymmetric delta lenses. The forgetful functor from the category of lenses to the category of functors is already known to reflect monos and epis and preserve epis; we show that it preserves monos, and give a simpler proof that it preserves epis. Together this gives a complete characterisation of the monic and epic lenses in terms of elementary properties of their get functors. Next, we initiate the study of coequalisers of lenses. We observe that not all parallel pairs of lenses have coequalisers, and that the forgetful functor from the category of lenses to the category of functors neither preserves nor reflects all coequalisers. However, some coequalisers are reflected; we study when this occurs, and then use what we learned to show that every epic lens is regular, and that discrete opfibrations have pushouts along monic lenses. Corollaries include that every monic lens is effective, every monic epic lens is an isomorphism, and the class of all epic lenses and the class of all monic lenses form an orthogonal factorisation system.

description: In this note we characterize those unitary one-parameter groups U^c which admit euclidean realizations in the sense that they are obtained by the analytic continuation process corresponding to reflection positivity from a unitary representation $U$ of the circle group. These are precisely the ones for which there exists an anti-unitary involution $J$ commuting with $U^c$. This provides an interesting link with the modular data arising in Tomita--Takesaki theory. Introducing the concept of a positive definite function with values in the space of sesquilinear forms, we further establish a link between KMS states and reflection positivity on the circle.

description: Autonomous driving has become real; semi-autonomous driving vehicles in an affordable price range are already on the streets, and major automotive vendors are actively developing full self-driving systems to deploy them in this decade. Before rolling the products out to the end-users, it is critical to test and ensure the safety of the autonomous driving systems, consisting of multiple layers intertwined in a complicated way. However, while safety-critical bugs may exist in any layer and even across layers, relatively little attention has been given to testing the entire driving system across all the layers. Prior work mainly focuses on white-box testing of individual layers and preventing attacks on each layer. In this paper, we aim at holistic testing of autonomous driving systems that have a whole stack of layers integrated in their entirety. Instead of looking into the individual layers, we focus on the vehicle states that the system continuously changes in the driving environment. This allows us to design DriveFuzz, a new systematic fuzzing framework that can uncover potential vulnerabilities regardless of their locations. DriveFuzz automatically generates and mutates driving scenarios based on diverse factors leveraging a high-fidelity driving simulator. We build novel driving test oracles based on the real-world traffic rules to detect safety-critical misbehaviors, and guide the fuzzer towards such misbehaviors through driving quality metrics referring to the physical states of the vehicle. DriveFuzz has discovered 30 new bugs in various layers of two autonomous driving systems (Autoware and CARLA Behavior Agent) and three additional bugs in the CARLA simulator. We further analyze the impact of these bugs and how an adversary may exploit them as security vulnerabilities to cause critical accidents in the real world.

Symmetry of Dirac two-oscillator system, gauge-invariance, and Landau problem
Creators: name: Tiwari, S C
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)

description: Role of gauge symmetry in the proton spin problem has intricate and unresolved aspects. One of the interesting approaches to gain physical insights is to explore tha Landau problem in this context. A detailed study using the group theoretic method to understand the Landau problem establishes the significance of the gauge transformation intimately related with the space translation symmetry. An important implication of this result is that the E(2)-like Wigner's little group for massless particles could throw more light on the question of gauge symmetry in QED and QCD. A generalized Landau-Zeeman Hamiltonian is proposed in which Dirac two-oscillator system and the symmetry of the group SO(3,2) become important. It is argued that nontrivial topology of pure gauge field holds promise to resolve the unsettled questions.

We focus on the supersonic regime where a transition from a time dependent flow to a stationary diffractive flow occurs at a given critical velocity. We give nonperturbative results for this critical velocity in the presence of a localised obstacle of arbitrary size and strength. In addition, we discuss the existence of superfluid-like solution in the supersonic regime due to resonant transport and provide a complete map of the different regimes of stationary transport of a quantum fluid.

description: Biological evidence suggests that adaptation of synaptic delays on short to medium timescales plays an important role in learning in the brain. Inspired by biology, we explore the feasibility and power of using synaptic delays to solve challenging tasks even when the synaptic weights are not trained but kept at randomly chosen fixed values. We show that training ONLY the delays in feed-forward spiking networks using backpropagation can achieve performance comparable to the more conventional weight training. Moreover, further constraining the weights to ternary values does not significantly affect the networks' ability to solve the tasks using only the synaptic delays. We demonstrate the task performance of delay-only training on MNIST and Fashion-MNIST datasets in preliminary experiments. This demonstrates a new paradigm for training spiking neural networks and sets the stage for models that can be more efficient than the ones that use weights for computation.

description: Context. It is almost banal to say that the interstellar medium (ISM) is structurally and thermodynamically complex. But the variety of the governing processes, including stellar feedback, renders the investigation challenging. High latitude molecular clouds (HLMCs) with no evidence of internal star formation, such as MBM 40, are excellent sites for studying the chemistry and dynamic evolution of the cold neutral ISM. Aims. We used this high latitude cloud as an exemplar for the dynamical and chemical processes in the diffuse interstellar medium. Methods. We analyzed new and archival $^{12}$CO, $^{13}$CO, CH, HCO$^+$, CS, H$_2$CO, HCN data from Five College Radio Observatory (FCRAO), Onsala Space Observatory (OSO), Arizona Radio Observatory (ARO) and W. Gordon telescope (Arecibo) combined with the Galactic Arecibo L-band Feed Array HI (GALFA-HI) HI 21 cm data set, to study the chemistry, thermal state, and dynamics of MBM 40. A new dynamical analytical approach was adopted by considering each line profile as a line of sight Probability Distribution Function (PDF) of the turbulence weighted by gas emissivity. Results. The atomic and molecular gas are smoothly distributed in space and velocity. No steep transition is seen between circumcloud atomic and cloud molecular gas in either radial velocity or structure. We proposed a topology of the cloud from the molecular tracers, a contorted filamentary structure that is shaped by a broad embedding shear flow in the neutral atomic gas. Comparative examination of different molecular tracers shows that $^{13}$CO, H$_2$CO and CS arise from only denser molecular cores, where $^{12}$CO, CH and HCO$^+$ traces diffuse gas with broader range of dynamics.

description: We extend our earlier work on the compositional structure of cybernetic systems in order to account for the embodiment of such systems. All their interactions proceed through their bodies' boundaries: sensations impinge on their surfaces, and actions correspond to changes in their configurations. We formalize this morphological perspective using polynomial functors. The 'internal universes' of systems are shown to constitute an indexed category of statistical games over polynomials; their dynamics form an indexed category of behaviours. We characterize 'active inference doctrines' as indexed functors between such categories, resolving a number of open problems in our earlier work, and pointing to a formalization of the 'free energy principle' as adjoint to such doctrines. We illustrate our framework through fundamental examples from biology, including homeostasis, morphogenesis, and autopoiesis, and suggest a formal connection between spatial navigation and the process of proof.

description: We describe the design of a radio interferometer composed of a Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) antenna and a Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) radio telescope. Our eventual goal is to use this interferometer for geodetic applications including local tie measurements. The GNSS element of the interferometer uses a unique software-defined receiving system and modified commercial geodetic-quality GNSS antenna. We ran three observing sessions in 2022 between a 25 m radio telescope in Fort Davis, Texas (FD-VLBA), a transportable GNSS antenna placed within 100 meters, and a GNSS antenna placed at a distance of about 9 km. We have detected a strong interferometric response with a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of over 1000 from Global Positioning System (GPS) and Galileo satellites. We also observed natural radio sources including Galactic supernova remnants and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) located as far as one gigaparsec, thus extending the range of sources that can be referenced to a GNSS antenna by 18 orders of magnitude. These detections represent the first observations made with a GNSS antenna to radio telescope interferometer. We have developed a novel technique based on a Precise Point Positioning (PPP) solution of the recorded GNSS signal that allows us to extend integration time at 1.5 GHz to at least 20 minutes without any noticeable SNR degradation when a rubidium frequency standard is used.

description: Higher harmonics of anisotropic flow ($v_n$ with $n\ge 4$) in heavy-ion collisions can be measured either with respect to their own plane, or with respect to a plane constructed using lower-order harmonics. We explain how such measurements are related to event-plane correlations. We show that CMS data on $v_4$ and $v_6$ are compatible with ATLAS data on event-plane correlations. If one assumes that higher harmonics are the superposition of non-linear and linear responses, then the linear and non-linear parts can be isolated under fairly general assumptions. By combining analyses of higher harmonics with analyses of $v_2$ and $v_3$, one can eliminate the uncertainty from initial conditions and define quantities that only involve nonlinear hydrodynamic response coefficients. Experimental data on $v_4$, $v_5$ and $v_6$ are in good agreement with hydrodynamic calculations. We argue that $v_7$ can be measured with respect to elliptic and triangular flow. We present predictions for $v_7$ versus centrality in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC.

description: We investigate the relation between the cooperative length and the relaxation time, represented respectively by the culling time and the persistence time, in the Fredrickson-Andersen, Kob-Andersen and spiral kinetically-constrained models. By mapping the dynamics to diffusion of defects, we find a relation between the persistence time, $τ_{p}$, which is the time until a particle moves for the first time, and the culling time, $τ_{c}$, which is the minimal number of particles that need to move before a specific particle can move, $τ_{p}=τ^γ_{c}$, where $γ$ is model- and dimension dependent. We also show that the persistence function in the Kob-Andersen and Fredrickson-Andersen models decays subexponentially in time, $P(t)=exp[-(t/τ)^β]$, but unlike previous works we find that the exponent $β$ appears to decay to 0 as the particle density approaches 1.

description: The average cryptocurrency user today faces a difficult choice between centralized custodial wallets, which are notoriously prone to spontaneous collapse, or cumbersome self-custody solutions, which if not managed properly can cause a total loss of funds. In this paper, we present a "best of both worlds" cryptocurrency wallet design that looks like, and inherits the user experience of, a centralized custodial solution, while in fact being entirely decentralized in design and implementation. In our design, private keys are not stored on any device, but are instead derived directly from a user's authentication factors, such as passwords, soft tokens (e.g., Google Authenticator), hard tokens (e.g., YubiKey), or out-of-band authentication (e.g., SMS). Public parameters (salts, one-time pads, etc.) needed to access the wallet can be safely stored in public view, such as on a public blockchain, thereby providing strong availability guarantees. Users can then simply "log in" to their decentralized wallet on any device using standard credentials and even recover from lost credentials, thereby providing the usability of a custodial wallet with the trust and security of a decentralized approach.
title: Influences of motivational orientation on academic achievement within the context of lower and upper primary year levels

description: Many researchers have completed a range of studies to evaluate the relationship of intrinsic, extrinsic and amotivation, particularly on how it influences on a student's academic achievement. This study expanded on these studies by examining the relationship of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation within the context of lower and upper primary school classrooms. One issue that has received minimal attention is the relationship between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and academic achievement in young students. In order to examine this relationship, students completed a motivation questionnaire (Academic Motivation Scale), as well as a Standardised Academic Test (State-wide Government Year 3 & 7 Tests). Correlational analysis identified the relationship between these constructs and was used to examine the connection between students' gender and motivational orientation. It was hypothesised that students operating from the intrinsic motivation perspective, are more likely to be high achievers within their year level. It was furthermore hypothesised that students in the lower year level would show higher levels of intrinsic motivation and as students progressed through primary school intrinsic motivation levels would decline while extrinsic motivation would increase. The results of this research study concluded that high academic achievers operated with high levels of both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. The study also discovered that there is a decline in both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation as students progre§s through their primary education.

description: Since the introduction of bcrypt in 1999, adaptive password hashing functions, whereby brute-force resistance increases symmetrically with computational difficulty for legitimate users, have been our most powerful post-breach countermeasure against credential disclosure. Unfortunately, the relatively low tolerance of users to added latency places an upper bound on the deployment of this technique in most applications. In this paper, we present a multi-factor credential hashing function (MFCHF) that incorporates the additional entropy of multi-factor authentication into password hashes to provide asymmetric resistance to brute-force attacks. MFCHF provides full backward compatibility with existing authentication software (e.g., Google Authenticator) and hardware (e.g., YubiKeys), with support for common usability features like factor recovery. The result is a 10^6 to 10^48 times increase in the difficulty of cracking hashed credentials, with little added latency or usability impact.

description: Cartesian differential categories come equipped with a differential combinator that formalizes the directional derivative from multivariable calculus. Cartesian differential categories provide a categorical semantics of the differential lambda-calculus and have also found applications in causal computation, incremental computation, game theory, differentiable programming, and machine learning. There has recently been a desire to provide a (coordinate-free) characterization of Jacobians and gradients in Cartesian differential categories. One's first attempt might be to consider Cartesian differential categories which are Cartesian closed, such as models of the differential lambda-calculus, and then take the curry of the derivative. Unfortunately, this approach excludes numerous important examples of Cartesian differential categories such as the category of real smooth functions. In this paper, we introduce linearly closed Cartesian differential categories, which are Cartesian differential categories that have an internal hom of linear maps, a bilinear evaluation map, and the ability to curry maps which are linear in their second argument. As such, the Jacobian of a map is defined as the curry of its derivative. Many well-known examples of Cartesian differential categories are linearly closed, such as, in particular, the category of real smooth functions. We also explain how a Cartesian closed differential category is linearly closed if and only if a certain linear idempotent on the internal hom splits. To define the gradient of a map, one must be able to define the transpose of the Jacobian, which can be done in a Cartesian reverse differential category. Thus, we define the gradient of a map to be the curry of its reverse derivative and show this equals the transpose of its Jacobian. We also explain how a linearly closed Cartesian reverse differential category is precisely a linearly closed Cartesian differential category with an appropriate notion of transpose.

description: We performed magneto-optical (MO) measurements on FeTe$_{0.5}$Se$_{0.5}$ thin films grown on LaAlO$_3$ (LAO) and Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) single-crystalline substrates. These thin films show superconducting transition temperature, ${T_c}$ $\sim$ 19 K, 4 K higher than the bulk sample. Typical roof-top patterns can be observed in the MO images of thin films grown on LAO and YSZ, from which a large and homogeneous critical current density, ${J_c}$, over 1 $\times$ 10$^6$ A/cm$^2$ at 5 K was obtained. Magnetic flux penetration measurement reveals that the current is almost isotropically distributed in the two thin films. Compared with bulk crystals, FeTe$_{0.5}$Se$_{0.5}$ thin film demonstrates not only higher ${T_c}$, but also much larger ${J_c}$, which is attractive for applications.

description: I present a formal connection between algebraic effects and game semantics, two important lines of work in programming languages semantics with applications in compositional software verification. Specifically, the algebraic signature enumerating the possible side-effects of a computation can be read as a game, and strategies for this game constitute the free algebra for the signature in a category of complete partial orders (cpos). Hence, strategies provide a convenient model of computations with uninterpreted side-effects. In particular, the operational flavor of game semantics carries over to the algebraic context, in the form of the coincidence between the initial algebras and the terminal coalgebras of cpo endofunctors. Conversely, the algebraic point of view sheds new light on the strategy constructions underlying game semantics. Strategy models can be reformulated as ideal completions of partial strategy trees (free dcpos on the term algebra). Extending the framework to multi-sorted signatures would make this construction available for a large class of games.

description: The information-geometric statistical analysis on the stability of model reductions, reported previously [Imbrišak and Nomura, Phys. Rev. C 107, 034304 (2023)] with a focus on the manifold boundary approximation method in the application to the nuclear density-dependent point-coupling model of infinite nuclear matter, is extended to the numerically more challenging case of finite nuclei. A simple procedure is presented for determining the binding energies of doubly magic nuclei within the relativistic mean-field framework using the Woods-Saxon potential. The proposed procedure, employing the Fisher information matrix combined with algorithmic differentiation, is shown to provide reliable estimates of parameter uncertainties of the nuclear energy density functional for finite nuclei, while reducing the time-consuming sampling of the parameter space, which would be required in the numerically more involved Bayesian statistical techniques.

description: Lately, the three-dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetal, which possesses 3D linear dispersion in electronic structure as a bulk analogue of graphene, has generated widespread interests in both material science and condensed matter physics. Very recently, crystalline Cd3As2 has been proposed and proved to be one of 3D Dirac semimetals which can survive in atmosphere. Here, by controlled point contact (PC) measurement, we observe the exotic superconductivity around point contact region on the surface of Cd3As2 crystal. The observation of zero bias conductance peak (ZBCP) and double conductance peaks (DCPs) symmetric to zero bias further reveal p-wave like unconventional superconductivity in Cd3As2 quantum matter. Considering the topological property of the 3D Dirac semimetal, our findings may indicate that the Cd3As2 crystal under certain conditions is a candidate of the topological superconductor, which is predicted to support Majorana zero modes or gapless Majorana edge/surface modes in the boundary depending on the dimensionality of the material.
