description: We present the discovery of a new highly compact quadruple star system, TIC 219006972, consisting of two eclipsing binary stars with orbital periods of 8.3 days and 13.7 days, and an outer orbital period of only 168 days. This period is a full factor of 2 shorter than the quadruple with the shortest outer period reported previously, VW LMi, where the two binary components orbit each other every 355 days. The target was observed by TESS in Full-Frame Images in sectors 14-16, 21-23, 41, 48 and 49, and produced two sets of primary and secondary eclipses. These show strongly non-linear eclipse timing variations (ETVs) with an amplitude of $\sim$0.1 days, where the ETVs of the primary and secondary eclipses, and of the two binaries are all largely positively correlated. This highlights the strong dynamical interactions between the two binaries and confirms the compact quadruple configuration of TIC 219006972. The two eclipsing binaries are nearly circular whereas the quadruple system has an outer eccentricity of about 0.25. The entire system is nearly edge-on, with a mutual orbital inclination between the two eclipsing binary star systems of about 1 degree.

description: The purpose of this research was to explore the reintegration experiences of excluded girls into mainstream secondary schools. While recognising the potential vulnerability of this population, increasing exclusion rates among girls and concerns about unofficial exclusions that are not legally accounted for in official statistics indicate that the needs of these children are sometimes invisible to the professionals who support them. In light of the long-term implications of exclusions, it is likely that the government and schools would be under significant pressure to reduce exclusion rates. Despite the growing number of girls affected by exclusions and reintegration, there is presently little research in the United Kingdom (UK) that explicitly explores how girls perceive the reintegration processes and what they consider to be valuable. Three secondary school-aged girls were recruited to participate in semi-structured interviews. Using an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) approach, the interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analysed. Following the completion of individual case analyses, four overarching themes emerged from the data collected from the participants: "Fairness, Respect, and Accountability," "Participation and Inclusion," "Self-Determination and Personal Agency," and "Frustrations, Fear, and Fighting." The findings are discussed and presented in the context of the pre-existing literature and psychological theory. In in addition to discussing the implications for Educational Psychology profession and school-based, the research also highlights the limitations and suggests areas for future research.
Bayesian model selection for dark energy using weak lensing forecasts

description: The next generation of weak lensing probes can place strong constraints on cosmological parameters by measuring the mass distribution and geometry of the low redshift universe. We show that a future all-sky tomographic cosmic shear survey with design properties similar to Euclid can provide the statistical accuracy required to distinguish between different dark energy models. Using a fiducial cosmological model which includes cold dark matter, baryons, massive neutrinos (hot dark matter), a running primordial spectral index and possible spatial curvature as well as dark energy perturbations, we calculate Fisher matrix forecasts for different dynamical dark energy models. Using a Bayesian evidence calculation we show how well a future weak lensing survey could do in distinguishing between a cosmological constant and dynamical dark energy.

Subjects: subject: 510

description: In this note, we consider the homogenization of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations in a periodically perforated domain in R3. Assuming that the particle size scales like ε3, where ε>0 is their mutual distance, and that the Mach number decreases fast enough, we show that in the limit ε→0, the velocity and density converge to a solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with Brinkman term. We strongly follow the methods of Höfer, Kowalczyk and Schwarzacher [https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218202521500391], where they proved convergence to Darcy’s law for the particle size scaling like εα with α∈(1,3).

description: Although significant progress has been achieved in recent surveys of the magnetism in massive stars, the origin of the detected magnetic fields remains to be the least understood topic in their studies. We present an analysis of 61 high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of 36 systems with O-type primaries, among them ten known particle-accelerating colliding-wind binaries exhibiting synchrotron radio emission. Our sample consists of multiple systems with components at different evolutionary stages with wide and tight orbits and different types of interactions. For the treatment of the complex composite spectra of the multiple systems, we used a special procedure involving different line masks populated for each element separately. Out of the 36 systems, 22 exhibit in their LSD Stokes V profiles definitely detected Zeeman features, among them seven systems with colliding winds. For fourteen systems the detected Zeeman features are most likely associated with O-type components whereas for three systems we suggest an association with an early B-type component. For the remaining five systems the source of the field is unclear. Marginal evidence for the detection of a Zeeman feature is reported for eleven systems and non-detection for three systems. The large number of systems with definitely detected Zeeman features presents a mystery, but probably indicates that multiplicity plays a definite role in the generation of magnetic fields in massive stars. The newly found magnetic systems are supreme candidates for spectropolarimetric monitoring over their orbital and rotation periods to obtain trustworthy statistics on the magnetic field geometry and the distribution of field strength.

description: For a Nicholson's blowflies system with patch structure and multiple discrete delays, we analyze several features of the global asymptotic behavior of its solutions. It is shown that if the spectral bound of the community matrix is non-positive, then the population becomes extinct on each patch, whereas the total population uniformly persists if the spectral bound is positive. Explicit uniform lower and upper bounds for the asymptotic behavior of solutions are also given. When the population uniformly persists, the existence of a unique positive equilibrium is established, as well as a sharp criterion for its absolute global asymptotic stability, improving results in the recent literature. While our system is not cooperative, several sharp threshold-type results about its dynamics are proven, even when the community matrix is reducible, a case usually not treated in the literature.

description: Current and alternative coyote control strategies in the Western United States are evaluated via a computerized simulation model which predicts the economic and socio-environmental impacts of each strategy. A gradual decrease in lamb losses and an increase in net economic benefits are predicted if the 1974 level of coyote control, $7 million, is increased to $20 million. Socio-environmental benefits did not change significantly under that simulation. Beyond the $20 million level of expenditures, net economic benefits are predicted to decline slightly and socio-environmental benefits decline rapidly. At expenditures below 1974 levels, both economic and socio-environmental benefits decline substantially. Changes in mixes of control methods are discovered which permit both economic and socio-environmental benefits to increase. These alternatives include increased use of the M-44 and aerial gunning and decreased use of traps.

description: Several observational studies have shown that many Galactic globular clusters (GCs) are characterised by internal rotation. Theoretical studies of the dynamical evolution of rotating clusters have predicted that, during their long-term evolution, these stellar systems should develop a dependence of the rotational velocity around the cluster's centre on the mass of stars, with the internal rotation increasing for more massive stars. In this paper we present the first observational evidence of the predicted rotation-mass trend. In our investigation, we exploited the $\mathit{Gaia}$ Data Release 3 catalogue of three GCs: NGC 104 (47 Tuc), NGC 5139 ($ω$ Cen) and NGC 5904 (M 5). We found clear evidence of a cluster rotation-mass relation in 47 Tuc and M 5, while in $ω$ Cen, the dynamically youngest system among the three clusters studied here, no such trend was detected.

Electromagnetic induction: how the "flux rule'' has superseded Maxwell's general law
Creators: name: Giuliani, Giuseppe
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Classical Physics (physics.class-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: As documented by textbooks, the teaching of electromagnetic induction in university and high school courses is primarily based on what Feynman labeled as the ``flux rule'', downgrading it from the status of physical law. However, Maxwell derived a ``general law of electromagnetic induction'' in which the vector potential plays a fundamental role. A modern reformulation of Maxwell's law can be easily obtained by defining the induced electromotive force as $\oint_l (\vec E +\vec v_c\times \vec B)\cdot\vec{dl}$, where $\vec v_c$ is the velocity of the positive charges which, by convention, are the current carriers. Maxwell did not possess a model for the electric current. Therefore, in his law, he took $\vec v_c$ to be the velocity of the circuit element containing the charges. This paper aims to show that the modern reformulation of Maxwell's law governs electromagnetic induction and that the ``flux rule'' is not a physical law but only a calculation shortcut that does not always yield the correct predictions. The paper also tries to understand why Maxwell's law has been ignored, and how the ``flux rule'' has taken root. Finally, a section is dedicated to teaching this modern reformulation of Maxwell's law in high schools and elementary physics courses.

description: Noether and Lie symmetry analyses based on point transformations that depend on time and spatial coordinates will be reviewed for a general class of time-dependent Hamiltonian systems. The resulting symmetries are expressed in the form of generators whose time-dependent coefficients follow as solutions of sets of ordinary differential (``auxiliary'') equations. The interrelation between the Noether and Lie sets of auxiliary equations will be elucidated. The auxiliary equations of the Noether approach will be shown to admit invariants for a much broader class of potentials, compared to earlier studies. As an example, we work out the Noether and Lie symmetries for the time-dependent Kepler system. The Runge-Lenz vector of the time-independent Kepler system will be shown to emerge as a Noether invariant if we adequately interpret the pertaining auxiliary equation. Furthermore, additional nonlocal invariants and symmetries of the Kepler system will be isolated by identifying further solutions of the auxiliary equations that depend on the explicitly known solution path of the equations of motion. Showing that the invariants remain unchanged under the action of different symmetry operators, we demonstrate that a unique correlation between a symmetry transformation and an invariant does not exist.

description: U.S. beef cattle and calf losses in feeder cattle production are estimated for 1975 from a USDA survey to indicate historical trends in cattle and calf losses. Major loss categories were disease, predators, theft, inclement weather, and unidentified causes. Of those feeder calves lost to production, 85 percent of the losses occurred before birth and 15 percent between birth and weaning based on January 1 inventories. Since 1950, annual average cattle losses have been 1.7 percent in comparison with calf losses of 6.4 percent.

description: We investigate the performance of entangled coherent state for quantum enhanced phase estimation. An exact analytical expression of quantum Fisher information is derived to show the role of photon losses on the ultimate phase sensitivity. We find a transition of the sensitivity from the Heisenberg scaling to the classical scaling due to quantum decoherence of the photon state. This quantum-classical transition is uniquely determined by the number of photons being lost, instead of the number of incident photons or the photon loss rate alone. Our results also reveal that a crossover of the sensitivity between the entangled coherent state and the NOON state can occur even for very small photon loss rate.

description: High-energy processes are ubiquitous even in the earliest stages of protostellar evolution. Motivated by the results of our systematic search for intense centimeter radio flares in Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) and by rare findings of strong millimeter-wavelength variability, we have conducted a systematic search for such variability in the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Rapid variability on timescales of minutes to hours in the (centimeter)millimeter-wavelength range indicates (gyro)synchrotron radiation. Additionally, mass accretion will also affect the millimeter-wavelength luminosity but typically on longer timescales. Beyond studies of individual YSOs, our characterization of strong millimeter-wavelength variability with ALMA in the ONC sets first systematic constraints on the occurrence of such variability in a large number of YSOs ($\sim$130). We report the discovery of an order of magnitude millimeter-flare within just a few minutes from a known YSO previously reported as a radio flaring source at cm-wavelengths (the "ORBS'' source). We also present an assessment of the systematic variability effects caused by the use of time-sliced imaging of a complex region. These are mostly due to the impact of a changing synthesized beam throughout the observations. We use simulated ALMA observations to reproduce and quantify these effects and set a lower limit for the variability that can be studied using our method in a complex region such as the ONC. Our results demonstrate that the utility of time domain analysis of YSOs extends into the millimeter-wavelength range, potentially interfering with the conversion of observed fluxes into dust masses.

description: We display a simple solution to the Penrose CCC scenario. For this solution we chose for the late stages of the previous aeon a FRW, k=0, universe with a both a cosmological constant and radiation (no mass) while for the early stages of the 'present' aeon we have again a FRW universe, k=0, with the same cosmological constant and again with radiation but with mass not yet present. The Penrose conditions force the parameters describing the radiation of the former and present aeons to be equal and the transition metric in the overlap region turns out to be flat. We further study how different rest-mass zero fields transition between the different conformally related regions. These (test) fields appears to easily allow perturbations of the geometry within the CCC scenario.

description: Organizations compete in a very complex and challenging context that is as a result many

factors from globalization, aggressive competitors and rapid change in technology among

others. For organizations to gain and maintain a competitive edge they must be able to

develop and execute strategic plans with precision. One of the major tools that help

achieve this is the balanced score card. The balanced score card was developed in early

1990’s by Kalpan and Norton and was designed to give companies the information

needed to effectively manage their business strategy. It has additional perspectives other

than the traditional financial perspective which include customer, internal business

process and learning and growth. The implementation of the tool however, has been a

challenge to many organizations. Hence the main purpose of this study was to determine

challenges of the implementation of balanced score card in Ethiopian Insurance

Corporation. The research approach used in this study was the mixed methodology, in

which the qualitative as well as the quantitative research methods were used. In the

qualitative research method interviews were conducted from the BSC project team

members where as in the quantitative research questionnaire is used for the employees of

the corporation. Some of the benefits of adopting the tool were that it enabled staff to

focus on measurable targets, ability to focus on key objectives, assisted on putting

emphasis on specific key measures, helps in monitoring of key performance

description: We study a crystallographic etching process of graphene nanostructures where zigzag edges can be prepared selectively. The process involves heating exfoliated single-layer graphene samples with a predefined pattern of antidot arrays in an argon atmosphere at 820 C, which selectively removes carbon atoms located on armchair sites. Atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy cannot resolve the structure on the atomic scale. However, weak localization and Raman measurements - which both probe intervalley scattering at armchair edges - indicate that zigzag regions are enhanced compared to samples prepared with oxygen based reactive ion etching only.

description: Tracking the motions of transient jets launched by low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) is critical for determining the moment of jet ejection, and identifying any corresponding signatures in the accretion flow. However, these jets are often highly variable and can travel across the resolution element of an image within a single observation, violating a fundamental assumption of aperture synthesis. We present a novel approach in which we directly fit a single time-dependent model to the full set of interferometer visibilities, where we explicitly parameterise the motion and flux density variability of the emission components, to minimise the number of free parameters in the fit, while leveraging information from the full observation. This technique allows us to detect and characterize faint, fast-moving sources, for which the standard time binning technique is inadequate. We validate our technique with synthetic observations, before applying it to three Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of the black hole candidate LMXB MAXI J1803-298 during its 2021 outburst. We measured the proper motion of a discrete jet component to be $1.37\pm0.14$ mas/hr, and thus we infer an ejection date of MJD $59348.08_{-0.06}^{+0.05}$, which occurs just after the peak of a radio flare observed by the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) and the Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-Millimeter Array (ALMA), while MAXI J1803-298 was in the intermediate state. Further development of these new VLBI analysis techniques will lead to more precise measurements of jet ejection dates, which, combined with dense, simultaneous multi-wavelength monitoring, will allow for clearer identification of jet ejection signatures in the accretion flow.

description: We propose a scheme for enhanced probing of an interaction between two single fermions based on weak-value amplification. The scheme is applied to measuring the anisotropic electron-hole exchange interaction strength in semiconductor quantum dots, where both spin and energy are mapped onto emitted photons. We study the effect of dephasing of the probe on the weak-value-enhanced measurement. We find that in the limit of slow noise, weak-value amplification provides a unique tool for enhanced-precision measurement of few-fermion systems.

description: Hyperspectral imaging acquires data in both the spatial and frequency domains to offer abundant physical or biological information. However, conventional hyperspectral imaging has intrinsic limitations of bulky instruments, slow data acquisition rate, and spatiospectral tradeoff. Here we introduce hyperspectral learning for snapshot hyperspectral imaging in which sampled hyperspectral data in a small subarea are incorporated into a learning algorithm to recover the hypercube. Hyperspectral learning exploits the idea that a photograph is more than merely a picture and contains detailed spectral information. A small sampling of hyperspectral data enables spectrally informed learning to recover a hypercube from an RGB image. Hyperspectral learning is capable of recovering full spectroscopic resolution in the hypercube, comparable to high spectral resolutions of scientific spectrometers. Hyperspectral learning also enables ultrafast dynamic imaging, leveraging ultraslow video recording in an off-the-shelf smartphone, given that a video comprises a time series of multiple RGB images. To demonstrate its versatility, an experimental model of vascular development is used to extract hemodynamic parameters via statistical and deep-learning approaches. Subsequently, the hemodynamics of peripheral microcirculation is assessed at an ultrafast temporal resolution up to a millisecond, using a conventional smartphone camera. This spectrally informed learning method is analogous to compressed sensing; however, it further allows for reliable hypercube recovery and key feature extractions with a transparent learning algorithm. This learning-powered snapshot hyperspectral imaging method yields high spectral and temporal resolutions and eliminates the spatiospectral tradeoff, offering simple hardware requirements and potential applications of various machine-learning techniques.
Electrochemical aptamer-based biosensors for biomarker detection assisted by tetrahedral DNA nanostructures

description: Continuous detection of proteins is crucial for health management and biomedical research. Electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) sensors that rely on binding affinity between a recognition oligonucleotide and its specific target provide a versatile platform to fulfill this purpose. Yet, most E-AB sensors are characterized by voltammetric methods, which suffer from signal drifts and low-frequency data acquisition during continuous operations. To overcome these limitations, we developed two novel E-AB sensors empowered by 1) gold nanoparticle-DNA pendulum (GDP), and 2) tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (TDN) pendulum. By integrating with chronoamperometric technic, the developed sensors enabled drift-resistant, high-frequency, and real-time monitoring of two important protein biomarkers, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and thrombin. In the presence of target molecules, longer and concentration-dependent time decay was observed, because of the reduced motion of the probes in their bound states. After optimizing several decisive parameters, such as probe density and incubation time, the developed E-AB sensors achieve continuous, selective, and reversible monitoring of targets in both phosphates buffered saline (PBS) solutions and artificial urine. Moreover, the developed sensors acquire signals on a millisecond timescale and remain resistant to signal degradation during long-term operation. This study offers a new approach to designing E-AB architectures for continuous biomolecular monitoring.
Renormalization group flow of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity at low energies

description: The functional renormalization group equation for projectable Hořava-Lifshitz gravity is used to derive the non-perturbative beta functions for the Newton's constant, cosmological constant and anisotropy parameter. The resulting coupled differential equations are studied in detail and exemplary RG trajectories are constructed numerically. The beta functions possess a non-Gaussian fixed point and a one-parameter family of Gaussian fixed points. One of the Gaussian fixed points corresponds to the Einstein-Hilbert action with vanishing cosmological constant and constitutes a saddle point with one IR-attractive direction. For RG trajectories dragged into this fixed point at low energies diffeomorphism invariance is restored. The emergence of general relativity from Hořava-Lifshitz gravity can thus be understood as a crossover-phenomenon where the IR behavior of the theory is controlled by this Gaussian fixed point. In particular RG trajectories with a tiny positive cosmological constant also come with an anisotropy parameter which is compatible with experimental constraints, providing a mechanism for the approximate restoration of diffeomorphism invariance in the IR. The non-Gaussian fixed point is UV-attractive in all three coupling constants. Most likely, this fixed point is the imprint of Asymptotic Safety at the level of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.

description: The Spitzer-South Pole Telescope Deep Field (SSDF) is a wide-area survey using Spitzer's Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) to cover 94 square degrees of extragalactic sky, making it the largest IRAC survey completed to date outside the Milky Way midplane. The SSDF is centered at 23:30,-55:00, in a region that combines observations spanning a broad wavelength range from numerous facilities. These include millimeter imaging from the South Pole Telescope, far-infrared observations from Herschel/SPIRE, X-ray observations from the XMM XXL survey, near-infrared observations from the VISTA Hemisphere Survey, and radio-wavelength imaging from the Australia Telescope Compact Array, in a panchromatic project designed to address major outstanding questions surrounding galaxy clusters and the baryon budget. Here we describe the Spitzer/IRAC observations of the SSDF, including the survey design, observations, processing, source extraction, and publicly available data products. In particular, we present two band-merged catalogs, one for each of the two warm IRAC selection bands. They contain roughly 5.5 and 3.7 million distinct sources, the vast majority of which are galaxies, down to the SSDF 5-sigma sensitivity limits of 19.0 and 18.2 Vega mag (7.0 and 9.4 microJy) at 3.6 and 4.5 microns, respectively.
