description: We investigate the evolution of NOAA Active Region 11817 during 2013 August 10--12, when it developed a complex field configuration and produced four confined, followed by two eruptive, flares. These C-and-above flares are all associated with a magnetic flux rope (MFR) located along the major polarity inversion line, where shearing and converging photospheric flows are present. Aided by the nonlinear force-free field modeling, we identify the MFR through mapping magnetic connectivities and computing the twist number $\mathcal{T}_w$ for each individual field line. The MFR is moderately twisted ($|\mathcal{T}_w| < 2$) and has a well-defined boundary of high squashing factor $Q$. We found that the field line with the extremum $|\mathcal{T}_w|$ is a reliable proxy of the rope axis, and that the MFR's peak $|\mathcal{T}_w|$ temporarily increases within half an hour before each flare while it decreases after the flare peak for both confined and eruptive flares. This pre-flare increase in $|\mathcal{T}_w|$ has little effect on the active region's free magnetic energy or any other parameters derived for the whole region, due to its moderate amount and the MFR's relatively small volume, while its decrease after flares is clearly associated with the stepwise decrease in free magnetic energy due to the flare. We suggest that $\mathcal{T}_w$ may serve as a useful parameter in forewarning the onset of eruption, and therefore, the consequent space weather effects. The helical kink instability is identified as the prime candidate onset mechanism for the considered flares.

description: A self-consistent system of nonlinear spinor and Bianchi type-V anisotropic gravitational fields are investigated. It is found that the presence of nontrivial non-diagonal components of the energy-momentum tensor of the spinor field imposes some severe restrictions to the system. As a result two different solutions are found. In one case the metric functions are similar to each other, i.e., $a_1 \sim a_2 \sim a_3$ and the spinor mass and spinor field nonlinearity do not disappear from the system. In this case the spacetime expands with acceleration in case of a positive self-coupling constant $λ$. A negative $λ$ gives rise to a cyclic or periodical mode of expansion. In the second case the spinor mass and the spinor field nonlinearity vanish and the Universe expands linearly with time.

description: Aims: New CCD observations for semidetached and detached eclipsing binaries from the Large Magellanic Cloud were carried out using the Danish 1.54-m telescope located at the La Silla Observatory in Chile. The selected systems were monitored for their times of minima, which were required to be able to study the period changes taking place in them. In addition, many new times of minima were derived from the photometric surveys OGLE-II, OGLE-III, and MACHO. Methods: The O-C diagrams of minima timings were analysed using the hypothesis of the light-travel time effect, i.e. assuming the orbital motion around a common barycenter with the distant component. Moreover, the light curves of these systems were also analysed using the program PHOEBE, which provided the physical parameters of the stars. Results: For the first time, in this study we derived the relatively short periods of modulation in these systems, which relates to third bodies. The orbital periods resulted from 3.6 to 11.3 yr and the eccentricities were found to be up to 0.64. This is the first time that this kind of analysis for the set of extragalactic sources has been performed. The Wolf-Rayet system OGLE-LMC-ECL-08823 is the most mysterious one, owing to the resultant high mass function. Another system, OGLE-LMC-ECL-19996, was found to contain a third body with a very high mass (M3,min = 26M0). One system (OGLE-LMC-ECL-09971) is suspicious because of its eccentricity, and another one (OGLE-LMC-ECL-20162) shows some light curve variability, with a possible flare-like or microlensing-like event. Conclusions: All of these results came only from the photometric observations of the systems and can be considered as a good starting point for future dedicated observations.

The methods achieve second-order convergence even in the presence of non-regular initial conditions. The IMEX time integrator allows to overcome the tiny time-step induced by the diffusive term in the explicit schemes, also providing accurate and non-oscillatory approximations of the Greeks.

description: The gravity-driven motion of rigid particles in a viscous fluid is relevant in many natural and industrial processes, yet this has mainly been investigated for spherical particles. We therefore consider the sedimentation of non-spherical (spheroidal) isolated and particle pairs in a viscous fluid via numerical simulations using the Immersed Boundary Method. The simulations performed here show that the critical Galileo number for the onset of secondary motions decreases as the spheroid aspect ratio departs from 1. Above this critical threshold, oblate particles perform a zigzagging motion whereas prolate particles rotate around the vertical axis while having their broad side facing the falling direction. Instabilities of the vortices in the wake follow when farther increasing the Galileo number. We also study the drafting-kissing-tumbling associated with the settling of particle pairs. We find that the interaction time increases significantly for non-spherical particles and, more interestingly, spheroidal particles are attracted from larger lateral displacements. This has important implications for the estimation of collision kernels and can result in increasing clustering in suspensions of sedimenting spheroids.

description: New algorithms for fast wavelet transforms with biorthogonal spline wavelets on nonuniform grids are presented. In contrary to classical wavelet transforms, the algorithms are not based on filter coefficients, but on algorithms for B-spline expansions (differentiation, Oslo algorithm, etc.). Due to inherent properties of the spline wavelets, the algorithm can be modified for spline grid refinement or coarsening. The performance of the algorithms is demonstrated by numerical tests of the adaptive spline methods in circuit simulation.

description: s in laser systems with two fractional-dispersion/diffraction terms, quantified by their Lévy indices, $α_{1}\, α_{2}\in (1, 2]$, and self-focusing or defocusing Kerr nonlinearity. Some fundamental solitons are obtained by means of the variational approximation, which are verified by comparison with numerical results. We find that the soliton collapse, exhibited by the one-dimensional cubic fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation with only one Lévy index $α=1$, can be suppressed in the two-Lévy-index fractional nonlinear Schrödinger system. Stability of the solitons is also explored against collisions with Gaussian pulses and adiabatic variation of the system parameters. Modulation instability of continuous waves is investigated in the two-Lévy-index system too. In particular, the modulation instability may occur in the case of the defocusing nonlinearity when two diffraction coefficients have opposite signs. Using results for the modulation instability, we produce first- and second-order rogue waves on top of continuous waves, for both signs of the Kerr nonlinearity.

Subjects: subject: 310

description: Identifying subgroups, which respond differently to a treatment, both in terms of efficacy and safety, is an important part of drug development. In early phase exploratory clinical trials the well-known challenges of subgroup analyses, like multiplicity and lack of power, are further amplified by the low sample size and because relatively limited clinical prior information on the drug is available. In this thesis some novel strategies for subgroup identification and treatment effect estimation in selected subgroups are compared in a simulation study motivated by real clinical trial situations.

description: Epsilon-Near-Zero materials exhibit a transition in the real part of the dielectric permittivity from positive to negative value as a function of wavelength. Here we study metal-dielectric layered metamaterials in the homogenised regime (each layer has strongly subwavelength thickness) with zero real part of the permittivity in the near-infrared region. By optically pumping the metamaterial we experimentally show that close to the Epsilon-Equal-to-Zero (EEZ) wavelength the permittivity exhibits a marked transition from metallic (negative permittivity) to dielectric (positive permittivity) as a function of the optical power. Remarkably, this transition is linear as a function of pump power and occurs on time scales of the order of the 100 fs pump pulse that need not be tuned to a specific wavelength. The linearity of the permittivity increase allows us to express the response of the metamaterial in terms of a standard third order optical nonlinearity: this shows a clear inversion of the roles of the real and imaginary parts in crossing the EEZ wavelength, further supporting an optically induced change in the physical behaviour of the metamaterial.

description: We prove that many completeness properties coincide in metric spaces, precompact groups and dense subgroups of products of separable metric groups. We apply these results to function spaces C_p(X,G) of G-valued continuous functions on a space X with the topology of pointwise convergence, for a separable metric group G. Not only the results but also the proofs themselves are novel even in the classical case when G is the real line. A space X is weakly pseudocompact if it is G_delta-dense in at least one of its compactifications. A topological group G is precompact if it is topologically isomorphic to a subgroup of a compact group. We prove that every weakly pseudocompact precompact topological group is pseudocompact, thereby answering positively a question of Tkachenko.

description: The advent of Large Language Models (LLMs) provides an opportunity to change the way queries are processed, moving beyond the constraints of conventional SQL-based database systems. However, using an LLM to answer a prediction query is still challenging, since an external ML model has to be employed and inference has to be performed in order to provide an answer. This paper introduces LLM-PQA, a novel tool that addresses prediction queries formulated in natural language. LLM-PQA is the first to combine the capabilities of LLMs and retrieval-augmented mechanism for the needs of prediction queries by integrating data lakes and model zoos. This integration provides users with access to a vast spectrum of heterogeneous data and diverse ML models, facilitating dynamic prediction query answering. In addition, LLM-PQA can dynamically train models on demand, based on specific query requirements, ensuring reliable and relevant results even when no pre-trained model in a model zoo, available for the task.

description: Supermassive black holes (SMBH) are essential for the production of jets in radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN). Theoretical models based on Blandford & Znajek extract the rotational energy from a Kerr black hole, which could be the case for NGC1052, to launch these jets. This requires magnetic fields of the order of $10^3\,$G to $10^4\,$G. We imaged the vicinity of the SMBH of the AGN NGC1052 with the Global Millimetre VLBI Array and found a bright and compact central feature, smaller than 1.9 light days (100 Schwarzschild radii) in radius. Interpreting this as a blend of the unresolved jet bases, we derive the magnetic field at 1 Schwarzschild radius to lie between 200 G and ~80000 G consistent with Blandford & Znajek models.

description: Clavulinopsis spiralis (Junghuhn 1838: 32) Corner (1950: 388)
Basidiomata (Fig. 1m) 4.0−10 × 0.1−0.4 cm, unbranched, caespitose, rare, gregarious. Clavula light yellow (4A5), cylindric or subfusiform, often compressed, longitudinally rugulose, twisted and flexuous, apices white (1A1) and acute, becoming light yellow (1A5) with age, greenish yellow (1A7) and blunt when mature; stipe 2.0−15 × 1.0−2.0 mm, indistinct, slightly strigose at base. Context waxy, solid becoming hollow; smell and taste unrecorded.
Basidiospores (Fig. 14a) 5.5−7.0 × 4.5−6.0 μm (Q=1.04), globose, hyaline, smooth, thin-walled, uniguttulate, with a large guttule, inamyloid; hilar appendage up to 1.0 μm long. Basidia (Fig. 14b) 35−62 × 5.0−13 μm, clavate, clamped; (3−)4-sterigmate 6.0−11 μm long. Cystidia absent. Hymenium 40−155 μm thick at first, absent in stipe. Subhymenium to 42.5 μm thick. Context (Fig. 14c) with parallel hyphae to 13 μm wide, clamped, inflated, slightly thick-walled, with many narrow, longitudinal and interweaving hyphae 2.0−7.0 μm wide with yellowish irregular intraparietal pigments, clamped.
 Habitat and distribution:—In the Atlantic Forest this species is found on soil in the shade. In Brazil it is known from Amazonas (De Lamônica-Freire 1979), Paraná (De Meijer 2006, as Clavulinopsis aff. spiralis) and Santa Catarina (present study). Also known from Congo (Corner 1966), Australia, Ceylon, Java, Malaysia and Trinidad (Corner 1950, 1970).

 Remarks:—Based on macroscopic characteristics Cs. spiralis could be mistaken for a pale form of Cs. amoena. However, the subhymenial hyphae of Cs. amoena have small granules that turn green when exposed to iodine and the basidiospores of this species are wider (7.0−9.0 × 7.0−8.5 μm) and subglobose (Corner 1950). Meijer (2006) collected specimens in Paraná that he named Cs. aff. spiralis. Unfortunately the four collections deposited at MBM were on loan when the manuscript was prepared and we could not have access to them.

Dynamics of quantized vortices moving towards reconnection

description: The main goal of this paper is to investigate numerically the dynamics of quantized vortex loops, just before the reconnection at finite temperature, when mutual friction essentially changes evolution of lines. Modeling is performed on the base of vortex filament method with using the full Biot-Savart equation. It was discovered that initial position of vortices and the temperature strongly affect the dependence on time of the minimum distance $δ(t)$ between tips of two vortex loops. In particular, in some cases the shrinking and collapse of vortex loops due to mutual friction occur earlier than reconnection, thereby cancelling the latter. However, this relationship takes a universal square-root form $δ\left(t\right)=\sqrt{\left(κ/2π\right)\left(t_{*}-t\right)}$ at distances smaller than the one, satisfying the Schwarz criterion, when nonlocal contribution to the Biot-Savart equation becomes about equal to local contribution. In the "universal" the nearest parts of vortices form a pyramid-like structure with angles which are also don't depend both on the initial configuration of filaments and on the temperature.

An Optimized Ion Trap Geometry to Measure Quadrupole Shifts of $^{171}$Yb$^+$ Clocks

description: We propose a new ion-trap geometry to carry out accurate measurements of the quadrupole shifts in the $^{171}$Yb-ion. This trap will produce nearly ideal harmonic potential where the quadrupole shifts due to the anharmonic components can be reduced by four orders of magnitude. This will be useful to reduce the uncertainties in the clock frequency measurements of the $6s~{^2}S_{1/2} \rightarrow 4f^{13} 6s^2 ~{^2}F_{7/2}$ and $6s~{^2}S_{1/2} \rightarrow 5d ~{^2}D_{3/2}$ transitions, from which we can deduce precise values of the quadrupole moments ($Θ$s) of the $4f^{13} 6s^2 ~{^2}F_{7/2}$ and $5d ~{^2}D_{3/2}$ states. Moreover, it may be able to affirm validity of the measured $Θ$ value of the $4f^{13} 6s^2 ~{^2}F_{7/2}$ state where three independent theoretical studies defer almost by one order in magnitude from the measurement. We also perform calculations of $Θ$s using the relativistic coupled-cluster (RCC) method. We use these $Θ$ values to estimate quadrupole shift that can be measured in our proposed ion trap experiment.

description: Vehicular communication requires vehicles to self-organize through the exchange of periodic beacons. Recent analysis on beaconing indicates that the standards for beaconing restrict the desired performance of vehicular applications. This situation can be attributed to the quality of the available transmission medium, persistent change in the traffic situation and the inability of standards to cope with application requirements. To this end, this paper is motivated by the classifications and capability evaluations of existing adaptive beaconing approaches. To begin with, we explore the anatomy and the performance requirements of beaconing. Then, the beaconing design is analyzed to introduce a design-based beaconing taxonomy. A survey of the state-of-the-art is conducted with an emphasis on the salient features of the beaconing approaches. We also evaluate the capabilities of beaconing approaches using several key parameters. A comparison among beaconing approaches is presented, which is based on the architectural and implementation characteristics. The paper concludes by discussing open challenges in the field.

description: Resumen Esta historia nos lleva por varios lugares preciosos dentro y fuera de nuestro país, iniciando en la provincia de Puntarenas (zona costera pacífica), pasando por San José nuestra ciudad capital, luego por Portalón en la provincia de Puntarenas, para posteriormente, recorrer regiones rurales en Panamá. Más adelante caminamos por la provincia de Limón, para luego continuar el viaje hasta llegar a Pérez Zeledón, específicamente, al pueblo llamado Ojo de Agua, el cual se ubica a varios kilómetros del centro de Pérez Zeledón, un lugar donde Elías Alvarado Jiménez, junto con su gran familia, vivió por tres años. El protagonista de nuestra historia, hoy, radica en la ciudad de New York en los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica en compañía de su esposa e hijo. Allá, desarrolla diversas actividades: él es taxista durante el día y corresponsal de Telenoticias (canal 7 de Costa Rica) durante la noche. Su carisma, su visión positiva ante la vida y su humildad, le han dado un lugar muy especial en los hogares costarricenses , cuando le vemos informar las últimas noticias o sucesos a nivel internacional. Situación que nos permitió de igual forma, narrar la primera Historia de vida fuera de nuestras fronteras.
