description: We present an analytic next-to-leading order QCD calculation of the partonic cross sections for single-inclusive lepton production in hadronic collisions, when the lepton originates from the decay of an intermediate electroweak boson and is produced at high transverse momentum. In particular, we consider the case of incoming longitudinally polarized protons for which parity-violating single-spin asymmetries arise that are exploited in the $W$ boson program at RHIC to constrain the proton's helicity parton distributions. Our calculation enables a very fast and efficient numerical computation of the relevant spin asymmetries at RHIC, which is an important ingredient for the inclusion of RHIC data in a global analysis of nucleon helicity structure. We confirm the validity of our calculation by comparing with an existing code that treats the next-to-leading order cross sections entirely numerically by Monte-Carlo integration techniques. We also provide new comparisons of the present RHIC data with results for some of the sets of polarized parton distributions available in the literature.

description: A new model of causal failure is presented and used to solve a novel replica placement problem in data centers. The model describes dependencies among system components as a directed graph. A replica placement is defined as a subset of vertices in such a graph. A criterion for optimizing replica placements is formalized and explained. In this work, the optimization goal is to avoid choosing placements in which a single failure event is likely to wipe out multiple replicas. Using this criterion, a fast algorithm is given for the scenario in which the dependency model is a tree. The main contribution of the paper is an $O(n + ρ\log ρ)$ dynamic programming algorithm for placing $ρ$ replicas on a tree with $n$ vertices. This algorithm exhibits the interesting property that only two subproblems need to be recursively considered at each stage. An $O(n^2 ρ)$ greedy algorithm is also briefly reported.

Effect of Predator-Prey Phylogenetic Similarity on the Fitness Consequences of Predation: A Trade-off between Nutrition and Disease?
Creators: name: Pfennig, David W.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2000

description: A largely neglected aspect of foraging behavior is whether the costs and benefits of predation vary as a function of phylogenetic (i.e., genetic) similarity between predator and prey. Prey of varying phylogenetic similarities to predators might differ in value because both the risk of pathogen transmission and the nutritional quality of prey typically decline with decreasing phylogenetic similarity between predator and prey. I experimentally evaluated this hypothesis by feeding omnivorous spadefoot toad tadpoles (Spea bombifrons, Spea multiplicata, and Scaphiopus couchii) either conspecific tadpoles or an equal mass of three different species of heterospecific prey, all of which contained naturally occurring bacteria. I also examined which prey species Spea tadpoles preferred. I found that all three species of tadpoles performed best on, and preferred to eat, prey that were of intermediate phylogenetic similarity to the predators. Prey of intermediate phylogenetic similarity may provide the greatest fitness benefits to predators because such prey balance the nutritional benefits of closely related prey with the cost of parasite transmission between closely related individuals.

description: Hotter is better is a hypothesis of thermal adaptation that posits that the rate-depressing effects of low temperature on biochemical reactions cannot be overcome by physiological plasticity or genetic adaptation. If so, then genotypes or populations adapted to warmer temperatures will have higher maximum growth rates than those adapted to low temperatures. Here we test hotter is better by measuring thermal reaction norms for intrinsic rate of population growth among an intraspecific collection of bacteriophages recently isolated from nature. Consistent with hotter is better, we find that phage genotypes with higher optimal temperatures have higher maximum growth rates. Unexpectedly, we also found that hotter is broader, meaning that the phages with the highest optimal temperatures also have the greatest temperature ranges. We found that the temperature sensitivity of fitness for phages is similar to that for insects.

description: Conventional dendritic cells type 1 (cDC1) are critical for inducing protective CD8+ T cell responses to tumour and viral antigens. In many instances, cDC1 access those antigens in the form of material internalised from dying tumour or virally-infected cells. How cDC1 extract dead cell-associated antigens and cross-present them in the form of peptides bound to MHC class I molecules to CD8+ T cells remains unclear. Here we review the biology of dendritic cell natural killer group receptor-1 (DNGR-1; also known as CLEC9A), a C-type lectin receptor highly expressed on cDC1 that plays a key role in this process. We highlight recent advances that support a function for DNGR-1 signalling in promoting inducible rupture of phagocytic or endocytic compartments containing dead cell debris, thereby making dead cell-associated antigens accessible to the endogenous MHC class I processing and presentation machinery of cDC1. We further review how DNGR-1 detects dead cells, as well as the functions of the receptor in anti-viral and anti-tumour immunity. Finally, we highlight how the study of DNGR-1 has opened new perspectives into cross-presentation, some of which may have applications in immunotherapy of cancer and vaccination against viral diseases.

description: The rapid growth in the ageing population has led to a rise in the numbers of older people relocating from the domestic home to institutional care homes. The growing demand for residential care homes (RCHs) in Malaysia is occurring at a time when lack of understanding about the quality of the care environment is evident. The conditions in which older people live in Malaysia RCHs is questionable. The present study aims to investigate residential care across a range of settings in Malaysia, including the public, private and Non-Government Organisation (NGO) sectors. The objectives are to: (1) gain an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the care environment in Malaysian RCHs from the perspectives of older people and staff/care workers; (2) Identify factors (both physical and social) contributing positively to a good care environment. The study progressed in two phases: Phase 1 involved a cross-sectional survey to gain a better understanding of the wider context of RCHs in Malaysia. Phase 2 involved case studies of three RCHs to gain an in-depth understanding of their social and physical environments, using observations, in-depth semi-structure interviews, and documentary analyses. Drawing on ethnographic data from three case study care homes, the thesis provides an in-depth understanding of older residents’ experiences of their social and physical environments and reveals how cultural norms and expectations of older residents can play a significant role in shaping their experiences of care home settings in Malaysia. Research indicates that government guidelines for RCHs in Malaysia should acknowledge the significance of such norms and expectations. The findings of this study will contribute to and enhance current RCH guidelines. The findings of this study will contribute to and enhance current RCH guidelines, thereby improving the experiences and sense of wellbeing of older residents living in RCHs. Keywords: older people, residential care homes, wellbeing, physical and social environments.

description: Using a circuit QED device, we demonstrate a simple qubit measurement pulse shape that yields fast ring-up and ring-down of the readout resonator regardless of the qubit state. The pulse differs from a square pulse only by the inclusion of additional constant-amplitude segments designed to effect a rapid transition from one steady-state population to another. Using a Ramsey experiment performed shortly after the measurement pulse to quantify the residual population, we find that compared to a square pulse followed by a delay, this pulse shape reduces the timescale for cavity ring-down by more than twice the cavity time constant. At low drive powers, this performance is achieved using pulse parameters calculated from a linear cavity model; at higher powers, empirical optimization of the pulse parameters leads to similar performance.

description: Electromagnetic interaction between a sub-wavelength particle (the `probe') and a material surface (the `sample') is studied theoretically. The interaction is shown to be governed by a series of resonances corresponding to surface polariton modes localized near the probe. The resonance parameters depend on the dielectric function and geometry of the probe, as well as the surface reflectivity of the material. Calculation of such resonances is carried out for several types of axisymmetric probes: spherical, spheroidal, and pear-shaped. For spheroids an efficient numerical method is developed, capable of handling cases of large or strongly momentum-dependent surface reflectivity. Application of the method to highly resonant materials such as aluminum oxide (by itself or covered with graphene) reveals a rich structure of multi-peak spectra and nonmonotonic approach curves, i.e., the probe-sample distance dependence. These features also strongly depend on the probe shape and optical constants of the model. For less resonant materials such as silicon oxide, the dependence is weak, so that the spheroidal model is reliable. The calculations are done within the quasistatic approximation with the radiative damping included perturbatively.

description: The Network has run for four very successful years between 2018-2022. Over these four years we created a community of over 1500 people and gained a strong social media presence, especially on twitter. We have funded 7 pilot projects, 15 interns and over 120 students to attend our machine learning summer schools, in addition to providing training to hundreds of other Network members through our Failed it to Nailed it and Skills4Scientists series. We were undeterred by COVID and took our Network activities online, doubling our membership over the summer of 2020 and bringing us a new array of international members where before we had been predominantly UK based, and since the return of physical events, we converted to a hybrid Network bringing together the best of both worlds for a mix of hybrid and virtual activities.
The Network has produced an immense number of resources, including 174 videos for our YouTube Channel and 52 reports across funded projects and events, in addition to supporting the publication of 19 peer reviewed journal and conference papers. The Network has also been heavily involved in other projects including supporting an Ethics for AI working group, and some collaborative projects with the Network of Networks group to run an Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion survey, and to write and compile a very comprehensive resource on how to run a Network which has been distributed to new Networks who were looking for guidance. Overall we feel that this Network has been very successful both in terms of impact and outputs.

This report provides a comprehensive overview of the Network. Section 2 details our membership statistics and growth, different social media and website accounts, and statistics on our events. Section 3 lists our outputs, Section 4 contains impact statements and collated feedback on our funded initiatives, and Section 5 describes our other outputs including our work with the Network of Networks.

description: This research has explored the relationship between cyclist and machine, through exploratory research methods and heuristic exploration by proposing a series of custom hardware interventions as way of enriching mountain bike rider’s experience. Changing the mountain bike rider’s experience and the mindset of the community of avid cyclists and industry by thinking outside the frame to thinking inside it. The work ahead focuses on performance hardware development as a gateway for avid mountain bike riders to think deeply about their relations with the bike, by exploring rider’s experience from a cyclist’s point of view, and by exploring ways in which industrial design can bring performance and improvement into the bicycle industry through adaptability of the frame to rider and terrain. Adaptability is a key factor between the terrain, the cyclist + machine. This research explores adaptable hardware systems allowing for changes or adaptations to the machine’s geometry depending on terrain, preferences or affinities. Focusing on the means of change, particular to the bicycles’ frame geometry, the frame transforms from the fixed hardware of a simple conveyance to a system of an enabler, making the cycling experience more emotional and self-reflective. Exploratory and applied research leveraging my own experience has emerged as a model, journaling and describing experiences, forming case studies for others to understand broadly how we meaningfully engage in bicycle riding. Cycling culture and its community as observed through volunteering for one of the most prestigious race in the world called the British Columbia Bike Race, served as multi method tool, where observation, conversations and stories helped inform my research, and explore how humans relate to objects and how adaptable objects become for a specific use. Applied heuristic assets and integrated experience design, with a focus on the user experience and its role in the cycling environment, demonstrates the very present cognitive improvement of human beings through the use of invention and mechanization. This research and the design outcomes will take into account several aspects specific to the bicycle like: Fit, Geometry, Materials + Processes, Culture + Ergonomics, accomplished through Practice based research by way of a collaboration and partnership with Landyachtz Bicycle Company, of Vancouver BC, where bicycles are hand built and crafted.

description: Rephasing and non-rephasing two-dimensional coherent spectra map the anti-crossing associated with normal-mode splitting in a semiconductor microcavity. For a 12-meV detuning range near zero detuning, it is observed that there are two diagonal features related to the intra-action of exciton-polariton branches and two off-diagonal features related to coherent interaction between the polaritons. At negative detuning, the lineshape properties of the diagonal intra-action features are distinguishable and can be associated with cavity-like and exciton-like modes. A biexcitonic companion feature is observed, shifted from the exciton feature by the biexciton binding energy. Closer to zero detuning, all features are enhanced and the diagonal intra-action features become nearly equal in amplitude and linewidth. At positive detuning the exciton- and cavity-like characteristics return to the diagonal intra-action features. Off-diagonal interaction features exhibit asymmetry in their amplitudes throughout the detuning range. The amplitudes are strongly modulated (and invert) at small positive detuning, as the lower polariton branch crosses the bound biexciton energy determined from negative detuning spectra.

Tactical Population Movements and Distributions for Ideally Motivated Competitors

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2010

description: The spatial distributions of populations are a reflection of underlying rules for movement behavior in the context of the environment encountered by individuals. Here I study how ideal directed movement—in which individuals travel in the direction offering the most immediate perceived improvement to their personal fitness—dictates the spatial position of two populations occupying the same relative niche and engaged in competition via interference to an individual’s ability to gather resources. Drawing on the analytic derivation of equilibria, numerical simulations, and graphical assessments, I provide conditions under which sympatry, parapatry, or regional exclusion is expected during different phases of the community’s development. I also demonstrate that specific competitive asymmetries produce distinguishable distributions and invasion patterns and identify which populations are found centrally or peripherally. Dynamic and dispersal equilibria were examined for differences in the sensitivity to spatial variations in fitness, per capita mortality, metabolic efficiency, the strength of interspecific interference, resource collection speed, and the optimal location of each population along an environmental cline. These asymmetries were studied both in isolation and pairwise in fitness trade-off scenarios.
Image definition evaluation functions for X-ray crystallography: a new perspective on the phase problem

description: The core theme of X-ray crystallography is reconstructing the electron density distribution of crystals under the constraints of observed diffraction data. Nevertheless, the reconstruction of electron density distribution by straightforward Fourier synthesis is usually hindered due to the well-known phase problem and finite resolution of diffraction data. In analogy with optical imaging system, the reconstructed electron density map may be regarded as the image of the real electron density distribution in crystals. Inspired by image definition evaluation functions applied in auto-focusing process, we proposed two evaluation functions for the reconstructed electron density images. One of them is based on atomicity of electron density distribution and properties of Fourier synthesis. Tests were performed on synthetic data of known structures, and it was found that this evaluation function can distinguish the correctly reconstructed electron density image from wrong ones when diffraction data of atomic resolution is available. An algorithm was established based on this evaluation function and applied in reconstructing the electron density image from synthetic data of known structures. The other evaluation function, which is based on the positivity of electron density and constrained entropy maximization, was designed for cases where only diffraction data of rather limited resolution is available. Tests on synthetic data indicate that this evaluation function may identify the correct phase set even for a dataset at the resolution as low as 3.5 Å. Though no algorithm of structure solution has been figured out based on the latter function, the results presented here provide a new perspective on the phase problem.

description: We present observations of the integrated light of four M31 globular clusters (MIV, MII, K280, and K58) and of the cores of six elliptical galaxies (NGC 3605, 3608, 5018, 5831, 6127, and 7619) made with the Faint Object Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope. The spectra cover the range 2200–4800 Å at a resolution of 8 Å with signal-to-noise ratio of more than 20 and flux accuracy of ~5%. To these data we add from the literature IUE observations of the dwarf elliptical galaxy M32, Galactic globular clusters, and Galactic stars. The stellar populations in these systems are analyzed with the aid of mid-UV and near-UV colors and absorption line strengths. Included in the measured indices is the key NH feature at 3360 Å. We compare these line index measures with the 2600 - 3000 colors of these stars and stellar populations. We find that the M31 globular clusters, Galactic globular clusters/Galactic stars, and elliptical galaxies represent three distinct stellar populations, based on their behavior in color–line strength correlations involving Mg II, NH, CN, and several UV metallic blends. In particular, the M31 globular cluster MIV, as metal-poor as the Galactic globular M92, shows a strong NH 3360 Å feature. Other line indices, including the 3096 Å blend that is dominated by lines of Mg I and Al I, show intrinsic differences as well. We also find that the broadband line indices often employed to measure stellar population differences in faint objects, such as the 4000 Å and the Mg 2800 breaks, are disappointingly insensitive to these stellar population differences. We find that the hot (T > 20,000 K) stellar component responsible for the "UV upturn" at shorter wavelengths can have an important influence on the mid-UV spectral range (2400–3200 Å) as well. The hot component can contribute over 50% of the flux at 2600 Å in some cases and affects both continuum colors and line strengths. Mid-UV spectra of galaxies must be corrected for this effect before they can be used as age and abundance diagnostics. Of the three stellar populations studied here, M31 globular clusters and elliptical galaxies are more similar to each other than either is to the Galactic stellar populations defined by globular clusters and nearby stars. Similarities between the abundance-pattern differences currently identified among these stellar populations and those among globular cluster stars (N, Al enhancements) present a curious coincidence that deserves future investigation.

description: The Internet of Things (IoT) has a significant impact on agriculture. So-called Smart Farming uses drones and a variety of sensors to measure climate, irrigation, soil moisture or GPS position. With this rapid influx of technology increases the threat that vulnerabilities in those technologies are being exploited for malicious intent. To show the impact of cyberattacks on agriculture, we present a simulation of several attacks on a ZigBee-based wireless sensor network. We conduct a delay attack, an interference attack and three different routing attacks (sinkhole, blackhole and selective forwarding attack). Those attacks are simulated using NETA with the OMNET++ framework. We will show that the security of WSN is influenced by factors like energy consumption or computation power, which can conflict with other interests like low per-unit costs.

description: We study the spatial patterns formed by a system of interacting particles where the mobility of any individual is determined by the population crowding at two different spatial scales. In this way we model the behavior of some biological organisms (like mussels) that tend to cluster at short ranges as a defensive strategy, and strongly disperse if there is a high population pressure at large ranges for optimizing foraging. We perform stochastic simulations of a particle-level model of the system, and derive and analyze a continuous density description (a nonlinear diffusion equation). In both cases we show that this interplay of scale-dependent-behaviors gives rise to a rich formation of spatial patterns ranging from labyrinths to periodic cluster arrangements. In most cases these clusters have the very peculiar appearance of ring-like structures, i.e., organisms arranging in the perimeter of the clusters, that we discuss in detail.

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Number Theory (math.NT)

description: Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number d can be represented as a denominator of a finite continued fraction b/d = [d1,d2,...,dk], with all partial quotients d1,d2,...,dk being bounded by an absolute constant A. Several new theorems concerning this conjecture were proved by Bourgain and Kontorovich in 2011. The easiest of them states that the set of numbers satisfying Zaremba's conjecture with A = 50 has positive proportion in natural numbers. In 2014 I. D. Kan and D. A. Frolenkov proved this result with A = 5. In this paper the same theorem is proved with A = 4.

description: The implementation of smart green schools in Enugu State presents both perceived future challenges and opportunities in the realm of education and sustainability. Challenges include initial infrastructure costs, technological integration hurdles, and the need for extensive teacher training to adapt to new educational paradigms. Additionally, ensuring equitable access to these facilities across urban and rural areas poses a logistical challenge. However, the prospects are promising. Smart green schools offer an opportunity to revolutionize education by incorporating technology for interactive learning experiences, enhancing students’ digital literacy skills. These schools also prioritize environmental sustainability through energy -efficiency, infrastructure, waste reduction measures, and eco-friendly curriculum integration, fostering a culture of environmental stewardship among students. Furthermore, the implementation of smart green schools aligns with global trends towards sustainable development, positioning Enugu State as a leader in environmentally conscious education. It has the potential to attract funding and partnerships from government and non-governmental organizations dedicated to sustainability initiatives. The adoption of smart green schools in Enugu State presents its share of perceived challenges; the potential benefits far outweigh them. With proper planning, investment, and commitment from stakeholders, these schools can serve as models of innovative, sustainable education contributing to the holistic development of students and the advancement of Enugu State’s educational landscape
Lithium and r-Process Abundances in the Population II Cepheid M5 V42

description: We report the results of an abundance analysis of the 25.7 day Population II Cepheid V42 in the globular cluster M5. V42 is probably a post–asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star, in its final crossing of the H-R diagram. We find [Fe/H] = -1.22, in excellent agreement with a similar analysis of this star by Gonzalez & Lambert, and of red giants in M5 by Sneden et al. The analysis is based on six spectra obtained during three different phases of the star's pulsational cycle. Oxygen is depleted, and sodium is enhanced, while the "α" elements Mg, Si, Ca, and Ti are enhanced by about 0.3 dex. Most interesting, lithium is detected, with log (Li) ≈ +1.8, suggesting the production of lithium and its rapid transport to the surface. Zinc and silicon abundances are normal with respect to iron and calcium, suggesting that depletion onto dust grains during the AGB stage has not affected the star's abundances. The neutron-capture elements show ratios consistent with a nearly pure r-process origin. This r-process dominance is probably unrelated to the production of lithium, since the cluster's red giant branch stars show a similar pattern. Nonetheless, it appears that some low-mass, metal-poor stars do not solely destroy lithium in the course of their normal evolution.

description: We summarize the results of a spectroscopic analysis of HD 17072, finding it to be a metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -1.17) red horizontal-branch star with Teff = 5375 K and log g = 2.4. We also derive a radial velocity of 62.8 km s-1. It has the best determined Hipparcos trigonometric parallax among the metal-poor field horizontal-branch stars and supports the fainter luminosities for such stars found from statistical parallax and Baade-Wesselink analyses, in contradiction to the results of main-sequence fitting of metal-poor field dwarfs to globular cluster main sequences.

Anisotropy and Strong-Coupling Effects on the Collective Mode Spectrum of Chiral Superconductors: Application to Sr$_2$RuO$_4$

description: Recent theories of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ based on the interplay of strong interactions, spin-orbit coupling and multi-band anisotropy predict chiral or helical ground states with strong anisotropy of the pairing states, with deep minima in the excitation gap, as well as strong phase anisotropy for the chiral ground state. We develop time-dependent mean field theory to calculate the Bosonic spectrum for the class of 2D chiral superconductors spanning $^3$He-A to chiral superconductors with strong anisotropy. Chiral superconductors support a pair of massive Bosonic excitations of the time-reversed pairs labeled by their parity under charge conjugation. These modes are degenerate for 2D $^3$He-A. Crystal field anisotropy lifts the degeneracy. Strong anisotropy also leads to low-lying Fermions, and thus to channels for the decay of the Bosonic modes. Selection rules and phase space considerations lead to large asymmetries in the lifetimes and hybridization of the Bosonic modes with the continuum of un-bound Fermion pairs. We also highlight results for the excitation of the Bosonic modes by microwave radiation that provide clear signatures of the Bosonic modes of an anisotropic chiral ground state.

description: An intriguing and elusive feature of the timelike hadron form factor is the possible presence of an imaginary part associated to rescattering processes. We find evidence of that in the recent and precise data on the proton timelike form factor measured by the BABAR collaboration. By plotting these data as a function of the 3-momentum of the relative motion of the final proton and antiproton, a systematic sinusoidal modulation is highlighted in the near-threshold region. Our analysis attributes this pattern to rescattering processes at a relative distance of 0.7-1.5 fm between the centers of the forming hadrons. This distance implies a large fraction of inelastic processes in $\bar{p}p$ interactions, and a large imaginary part in the related $e^+e^- \rightarrow \bar{p}p$ reaction because of unitarity.
