description: Currently available silver-based antiseptic wound dressings have limited patient effectiveness. There exists a need for wound dressings that behave as comfortable degradable hydrogels with a strong antibiotic potential. The objectives of this project were to investigate the combined use of gallates (either epi gallo catechin gallate (EGCG), Tannic acid, or Quercetin) as both PVA crosslinking agents and as potential synergistic antibiotics in combination with silver nanoparticles. Crosslinking was assessed gravimetrically, silver and gallate release was measured using inductively coupled plasma and HPLC methods, respectively. Synergy was measured using 96-well plate FICI methods and in-gel antibacterial effects were measured using planktonic CFU assays. All gallates crosslinked PVA with optimal extended swelling obtained using EGCG or Quercetin at 14% loadings (100 mg in 500 mg PVA with glycerol). All three gallates were synergistic in combination with silver nanoparticles against both gram-positive and -negative bacteria. In PVA hydrogel films, silver nanoparticles with EGCG or Quercetin more effectively inhibited bacterial growth in CFU counts over 24 h as compared to films containing single agents. These biocompatible natural-product antibiotics, EGCG or Quercetin, may play a dual role of providing stable PVA hydrogel films and a powerful synergistic antibiotic effect in combination with silver nanoparticles.

description: All of us know that the normal concrete possess very low tensile strength, limited ductility and little resistance to cracking. So this focuses towards the experimental investigation of the mechanical properties of glass fiber reinforced concrete with conventional concrete. Fibers while delivered in certain percentage in the concrete improves the property as crack resistance, ductility, as flexural strength and durability. So for enhancing the durability of the structure we are the use of glass fiber. Glass-fiber reinforced concrete (GRFC) is a fabric product of a cementatious matrix composed of cement, sand, water and admixtures, wherein brief duration glass fibers are dispersed. It has been broadly used within the creation enterprise for non-structural factors, like façade panels, piping and channels. GRC gives many advantages, inclusive of being lightweight, heat resistance, appropriate look and strength. For this experimental work we are using glass fibers on the volume fractions of 0.5%, 1% and 2 %. After the casting of cubes, beams and cylinder with the above stated quantity fractions we can carry out specific test which include compressive strength, tensile strength and flexural strength respectively. After the completion of this work we compare the results of glass fiber strengthened concrete with that of the normal concrete. From evaluating those two we are able to see that how the addition of the fibers will have an effect on the mechanical properties of conventional concrete and we check that the addition of fibers improves the strength of concrete or not

description: Recently, it has been reported that black holes (BHs) sourced by nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) can trigger unbounded superradiance, i. e., the total absorption cross section -- the ratio between the absorbed flux and the incident flux of the wave -- can be negative and unbounded from below. Considering the propagation of massive charged test scalar fields in the vicinity of electrically charged BH solutions based on the NED framework, we derive sufficient conditions to have an unbounded superradiant regime. We also discuss some possible general conditions that the NED electrical source associated with the geometry has to satisfy to trigger an unbounded superradiance. Our results apply to a broad family of electrically charged BH solutions (regular and singular) derived in the framework of NED minimally coupled to general relativity.

description: Binary and sparse ternary weights in neural networks enable faster computations and lighter representations, facilitating their use on edge devices with limited computational power. Meanwhile, vanilla RNNs are highly sensitive to changes in their recurrent weights, making the binarization and ternarization of these weights inherently challenging. To date, no method has successfully achieved binarization or ternarization of vanilla RNN weights. We present a new approach leveraging the properties of Hadamard matrices to parameterize a subset of binary and sparse ternary orthogonal matrices. This method enables the training of orthogonal RNNs (ORNNs) with binary and sparse ternary recurrent weights, effectively creating a specific class of binary and sparse ternary vanilla RNNs. The resulting ORNNs, called HadamRNN and Block-HadamRNN, are evaluated on benchmarks such as the copy task, permuted and sequential MNIST tasks, the IMDB dataset, two GLUE benchmarks, and two IoT benchmarks. Despite binarization or sparse ternarization, these RNNs maintain performance levels comparable to state-of-the-art full-precision models, highlighting the effectiveness of our approach. Notably, our approach is the first solution with binary recurrent weights capable of tackling the copy task over 1000 timesteps.

description: Bacteriophages (phages) are potential alternatives to chemical antimicrobials against pathogens of public health significance. Understanding the diversity and host specificity of phages is important for developing effective phage biocontrol approaches. Here, we assessed the host range, morphology, and genetic diversity of eight Salmonella enterica phages isolated from a wastewater treatment plant. The host range analysis revealed that six out of eight phages lysed more than 81% of the 43 Salmonella enterica isolates tested. The genomic sequences of all phages were determined. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data revealed that phage genome sizes ranged from 41 to 114 kb, with GC contents between 39.9 and 50.0%. Two of the phages SB13 and SB28 represent new species, Epseptimavirus SB13 and genera Macdonaldcampvirus, respectively, as designated by the International Committee for the Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) using genome-based taxonomic classification. One phage (SB18) belonged to the Myoviridae morphotype while the remaining phages belonged to the Siphoviridae morphotype. The gene content analyses showed that none of the phages possessed virulence, toxin, antibiotic resistance, type I–VI toxin–antitoxin modules, or lysogeny genes. Three (SB3, SB15, and SB18) out of the eight phages possessed tailspike proteins. Whole-genome-based phylogeny of the eight phages with their 113 homologs revealed three clusters A, B, and C and seven subclusters (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, and C2). While cluster C1 phages were predominantly isolated from animal sources, cluster B contained phages from both wastewater and animal sources. The broad host range of these phages highlights their potential use for controlling the presence of S. enterica in foods.

description: Calculating molecular properties using quantum devices can be done through the quantum linear response (qLR) or, equivalently, the quantum equation of motion (qEOM) formulations. Different parameterizations of qLR and qEOM are available, namely naive, projected, self-consistent, and state-transfer. In the naive and projected parameterizations, the metric is not the identity, and we show that it depends on the redundant orbital rotations. This dependency may lead to divergences in the excitation energies for certain choices of the redundant orbital rotation parameters in an idealized noise-less setting. Further, this leads to significant variance when calculations include statistical noise from finite quantum sampling.

description: Small planets ($R_{p} \leq 4 R_{\oplus}$) are divided into rocky super-Earths and gaseous sub-Neptunes separated by a radius gap, but the mechanisms that produce these distinct planet populations remain unclear. Binary stars are the only main-sequence systems with an observable record of the protoplanetary disk lifetime and mass reservoir, and the demographics of planets in binaries may provide insights into planet formation and evolution. To investigate the radius distribution of planets in binary star systems, we observed 207 binary systems hosting 283 confirmed and candidate transiting planets detected by the Kepler mission, then recharacterized the planets while accounting for the observational biases introduced by the secondary star. We found that the population of planets in close binaries ($ρ\leq 100$ au) is significantly different from the planet population in wider binaries ($ρ> 300$ au) or single stars. In contrast to planets around single stars, planets in close binaries appear to have a unimodal radius distribution with a peak near the expected super-Earth peak of $R_{p} \sim 1.3 R_{\oplus}$ and a suppressed population of sub-Neptunes. We conclude that we are observing the direct impact of a reduced disk lifetime, smaller mass reservoir, and possible altered distribution of solids reducing the sub-Neptune formation efficiency. Our results demonstrate the power of binary stars as a laboratory for exploring planet formation and as a controlled experiment of the impact of varied initial conditions on mature planet populations.

description: Altermagnets break time-reversal symmetry, preserve the crystal translation invariance, and have a spin density with $d$-wave, $g$-wave, etc. momentum dependencies which do not contribute to the magnetization. When an $s$-wave spin-density contribution cannot be excluded by symmetry a small magnetization and an anomalous Hall effect (AHE) emerge. However, for so-called "pure" altermagnets, where the $s$-wave component is symmetry forbidden even in the presence of SOC, both the zero-field magnetization and the AHE vanish. We show that altermagnets generally exhibit a non-zero elasto-Hall-conductivity, by which application of strain leads to a non-zero AHE. For pure altermagnets it is the only contribution to the AHE. This elasto-Hall-conductivity is caused by strain coupling to the Berry curvature quadrupole that characterizes altermagnets and allows for the determination of the altermagnetic order using transport measurements that are linear in the electrical field. We further show that the emergence of a non-zero magnetization in the presence of strain arises from a different response function: piezomagnetism. While this magnetization gives rise to an additional contribution to the elasto-Hall conductivity, the corresponding Berry curvature is qualitatively different from the distorted Berry curvature quadrupole originating from the altermagnetic order parameter. This insight also helps to disentangle AHE and weak ferromagnetism for systems with symmetry-allowed $s$-wave contribution. Quantitatively, the elasto-Hall conductivity is particularly pronounced for systems with a Dirac spectrum in the altermagnetic state. The same mechanism gives rise to anomalous elasto-thermal Hall, Nernst, and Ettinghausen effects.

description: Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is currently being discussed as a technology to safeguard communication in a future where quantum computers compromise traditional public-key cryptosystems. In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive security evaluation of QKD-based solutions, focusing on real-world use cases sourced from academic literature and industry reports. We analyze these use cases, assess their security and identify the possible advantages of deploying QKD-based solutions. We further compare QKD-based solutions with Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), the alternative approach to achieving security when quantum computers compromise traditional public-key cryptosystems, evaluating their respective suitability for each scenario. Based on this comparative analysis, we critically discuss and comment on which use cases QKD is suited for, considering factors such as implementation complexity, scalability, and long-term security. Our findings contribute to a better understanding of the role QKD could play in future cryptographic infrastructures and offer guidance to decision-makers considering the deployment of QKD.

description: In this article, we experimentally demonstrate an eavesdropper's (Eve's) information gain by exploiting the breakdown flash generated by the single photon avalanche detector (SPAD) used in coherent one-way quantum key distribution (COW-QKD) setup. Unlike prior studies focusing on the device-level characterization of backflash photons, this work quantifies Eve's learning with a QKD system that includes a key distillation engine (KDE). Eve's learning is quantified using the backflash photons emitted by SPAD and the information available on the classical channel. Experimentally observed data are in good agreement with theoretical simulations. Some mitigation strategies against the backflash attack are also discussed.

description: As the use of automated employment decision tools (AEDTs) has rapidly increased in hiring contexts, especially for computing jobs, there is still limited work on applicants' perceptions of these emerging tools and their experiences navigating them. To investigate, we conducted a survey with 448 computer science students (young, current technology job-seekers) about perceptions of the procedural fairness of AEDTs, their willingness to be evaluated by different AEDTs, the strategies they use relating to automation in the hiring process, and their job seeking success. We find that young job seekers' procedural fairness perceptions of and willingness to be evaluated by AEDTs varied with the level of automation involved in the AEDT, the technical nature of the task being evaluated, and their own use of strategies, such as job referrals. Examining the relationship of their strategies with job outcomes, notably, we find that referrals and family household income have significant and positive impacts on hiring success, while more egalitarian strategies (using free online coding assessment practice or adding keywords to resumes) did not. Overall, our work speaks to young job seekers' distrust of automation in hiring contexts, as well as the continued role of social and socioeconomic privilege in job seeking, despite the use of AEDTs that promise to make hiring "unbiased."

Tunneling valley Hall effect induced by coherent geometric phase

description: We propose a geometric phase-resolved tunneling valley Hall effect based on the coherent transmission through two combined electric barriers in $α-\mathcal{T}_3$ lattices. It is shown that the backreflected electrons at the barrier interface may acquire a valley-dependent geometric phase. The coherence of this geometric phase leads to the valley-dependent skew tunneling, which is responsible for the transverse valley current with zero net charge. We further demonstrate that this charge-neutral transverse valley Hall current can be electrically controlled by the gate voltages applied across the two combined barrier regions and is absent when the two barriers are of equal height. Our work opens a new approach to generating the valley Hall effect, suggesting potential applications for valleytronic devices.

description: Utilizing the Hamiltonian constraints approach, a quantum-corrected solution has been derived \cite{Zhang:2024ney}, which describes either a regular black hole or a traversable wormhole, contingent upon the value of the quantum parameter. In this work, we compute the quasinormal modes associated with axial gravitational and test fields' perturbations of these objects. We see that due to quantum corrections near the event horizon, the first several overtones deviate from their Schwarzschild values at an increasing rate. The transition between the black hole and wormhole states is marked by modifications in the late-time signal. Our findings reveal that the fundamental quasinormal modes of quantum-corrected black holes exhibit only slight deviations from those of the classical Schwarzschild solution. However, at the transition, the spectrum undergoes significant changes, with the wormhole state characterized by exceptionally long-lived quasinormal modes. In addition, we calculate absorption cross-sections of partial waves, grey-body factors and energy emission rates of Hawking radiation.

description: Il existe actuellement aucune étude ayant regardé le patron de coordination de mouvement des rotations du bassin et des épaules lors de la marche sur place et en absence de vision (test de Fukuda). Cette étude descriptive vise à répondre à cette question. Les données analysées proviennent d’une collecte de données antérieure (Grostern et al., 2021) qui incluait 14 jeunes adultes en bonne santé (moyenne = 22 ans). Un système 3D de caméras infrarouges captaient leurs mouvements au niveau des épaules et du bassin pendant qu’ils faisaient leurs 5 essais du test de Fukuda. Les résultats ont démontré que : 1) tous les participants avaient une rotation horizontale des épaules ou du bassin durant le test, 2) les mouvements de rotation au niveau du bassin étaient principalement opposés à la jambe en appui lors de chaque pas, et 3) trois patrons de coordination de mouvement ont été observé : mouvement synchrone épaule-bassin (patron dominant), mouvement asynchrone et absence de mouvement de bassin. Ces nouveaux patrons de coordination serviront de base de données pour les études ultérieures sur ce sujet.

description: We revisit the problem of transmission of quasiparticles through a rectangular potential barrier for semimetals featuring quadratic-in-momentum band-crossings at a nodal point. Although this was considered in Annals of Physics 419 (2020) 168235, the solutions corresponding to evanescent waves were missed, leading to a partial fulfillment of the boundary conditions required to determine the piecewise-continuous wavefunctions. In this paper, our aim is to correct those shortcomings, recompute the transmission coefficients, and show the resulting behaviour of the conductivity and the Fano factor for some representative parameter values.

description: In recent experiments, a novel type of cascaded quantum system has been realized using nanofiber-coupled cold atomic ensembles. This setup has enabled the study of superradiant decay of highly excited collective spin states of up to a thousand atoms, featuring unidirectional coupling mediated by the waveguide mode. The complexity arising from the large, multi-excited ensemble and the cascaded interactions between atoms makes conventional simulation methods unsuitable for predicting the correlations of superradiant emission beyond the first order. To address this challenge, we developed a new simulation technique based on the truncated Wigner approximation for spins. Our stochastic simulation tool can predict the second-order quantum coherence function, $g^{(2)}$, along with other correlators of the light field emitted by a strongly excited cascaded system of two-level emitters. This approach thus provides an effective and scalable method for analyzing cascaded quantum systems with large numbers of particles.

description: The growing maturity of photonic integrated circuit (PIC) fabrication technology enables the high integration of an increasing number of optical components onto a single chip. With the incremental circuit complexity, the calibration of active phase shifters in a large-scale PIC becomes a crucially important issue. The traditional one-by-one calibration techniques encounter significant hurdles with the propagation of calibration errors, and achieving the decoupling of all phase shifters for independent calibration is not straightforward. To address this issue, we propose a global calibration approach for large-scale PIC. Our method utilizes a custom network to simultaneously learn the nonlinear phase-current relations for all thermo-optic phase shifters on the PIC by minimizing the negative likelihood of the measurement datasets. Moreover, the reflectivities of all static beam splitter components can also be synchronizedly extracted using this calibration method. As an example, a quantum walk PIC with a circuit depth of 12 is calibrated, and a programmable discrete-time quantum walk is experimentally demonstrated. These results will greatly benefit the applications of large-scale PICs in photonic quantum information processing.

description: Sketch segmentation involves grouping pixels within a sketch that belong to the same object or instance. It serves as a valuable tool for sketch editing tasks, such as moving, scaling, or removing specific components. While image segmentation models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in recent years, sketches present unique challenges for these models due to their sparse nature and wide variation in styles. We introduce InkLayer, a method for instance segmentation of raster scene sketches. Our approach adapts state-of-the-art image segmentation and object detection models to the sketch domain by employing class-agnostic fine-tuning and refining segmentation masks using depth cues. Furthermore, our method organizes sketches into sorted layers, where occluded instances are inpainted, enabling advanced sketch editing applications. As existing datasets in this domain lack variation in sketch styles, we construct a synthetic scene sketch segmentation dataset, InkScenes, featuring sketches with diverse brush strokes and varying levels of detail. We use this dataset to demonstrate the robustness of our approach.

description: Patient access to new oncology drugs in Canada is only possible after navigating multiple sequential systemic checkpoints for national regulatory approval, health technology assessment (HTA) and collective government price negotiation. These steps delay access and prevent health care providers from being able to prescribe optimal therapy. Eighteen Canadian oncology clinicians from the medicine, nursing and pharmacy professions met to develop consensus recommendations for defining reasonable government performance standards around process and timeliness to improve Canadian cancer patients’ access to best care. A modified Delphi methodology was used to identify consensus on 30 questions involving five themes: accountability, disparities, endpoints, timeliness, and cost-effectiveness. It was agreed that greater transparency is required across regulatory and HTA processes. Health professionals in oncology are frustrated for their patients because they are unable to deliver the modern guideline-supported therapies they want to provide due to delays in approval or funding. Canadian health care providers request improvements in timely access to life-saving therapeutics in line with other comparator countries. Clinicians expect urgent improvements in Canadian health systems to give our patients their best chance of survival.

description: Although several studies observed pavement responses after flooding, no detailed quantification has been done to date. This paper has estimated “Design of flexible pavement’s” with the help of “IRC-37, 2012” This was shown in the traffic design v/s thickness of pavement, the study of Traffic volume, Traffic count, and calculates traffic design with the help of IRC-37, 2012. (Use IS code formulae), CBR of strong pavement built to a high standard is the most flood – resilient, which may be adopted as a pre-flood strategy. Results obtained using CBR in Year 1 over the probability of flooding, and the loss of road strength and service life, as well as flood consequences, provided similar results. Road authorities should consider changing their roads to flood-resilient pavements in the future.

description: This paper presents the first public data release of the S-PLUS Ultra-Short Survey (USS), a photometric survey with short exposure times, covering approximately 9300 deg$^{2}$ of the Southern sky. The USS utilizes the Javalambre 12-band magnitude system, including narrow and medium-band and broad-band filters targeting prominent stellar spectral features. The primary objective of the USS is to identify bright, extremely metal-poor (EMP; [Fe/H] $\leq -3$) and ultra metal-poor (UMP; [Fe/H] $\leq -4$) stars for further analysis using medium- and high-resolution spectroscopy.}{This paper provides an overview of the survey observations, calibration method, data quality, and data products. Additionally, it presents the selection of EMP and UMP candidates.}{The data from the USS were reduced and calibrated using the same methods as presented in the S-PLUS DR2. An additional step was introduced, accounting for the offset between the observed magnitudes off the USS and the predicted magnitudes from the very low-resolution Gaia XP spectra.}{This first release contains data for 163 observed fields totaling $\sim$324 deg$^{2}$ along the Celestial Equator. The magnitudes obtained from the USS are well-calibrated, showing a difference of $\sim 15$ mmag compared to the predicted magnitudes by the GaiaXPy toolkit. By combining colors and magnitudes, 140 candidates for EMP or UMP have been identified for follow-up studies.}{The S-PLUS USS DR1 is an important milestone in the search for bright metal-poor stars, with magnitudes in the range 10 $ < r \leq 14$. The USS is an ongoing survey; in the near future, it will provide many more bright metal-poor candidate stars for spectroscopic follow-up.
