description: Force-free neutron star magnetospheres are nowadays well known and found through numerical simulations. Even extension to general relativity has recently been achieved. However, those solutions are by definition dissipationless, meaning that the star is unable to accelerate particles and let them radiate any photon. Interestingly, the force-free model has no free parameter however it must be superseded by a dissipative mechanism within the plasma. In this paper, we investigate the magnetosphere electrodynamics for particles moving in the radiation reaction regime, using the limit where acceleration is fully balanced by radiation, also called Aristotelian dynamics. An Ohm's law is derived, from which the dissipation rate is controlled by a one parameter family of solutions depending on the pair multiplicity~$κ$. The spatial extension of the dissipation zone is found self-consistently from the simulations. We show that the radiative magnetosphere of an aligned rotator tends to the force-free regime whenever the pair multiplicity becomes moderately large, $κ\gg 1$. However, for low multiplicity, a substantial fraction of the spindown energy goes into particle acceleration and radiation in addition to the Poynting flux, the latter remaining only dominant for large multiplicities. We show that the work done on the plasma occurs predominantly in the equatorial current sheet right outside the light-cylinder.

description: The reduction of GHG emissions is one of the most important policy objectives worldwide. Nonetheless, concrete and effective measures to reduce them are hardly implemented. One of the main reasons for this deadlock is the fear that unilateral actions will reduce a country’s competitiveness, and will benefit those countries where no GHG mitigation measures are implemented. This kind of argument is also often used to explain why some governments and many business leaders are not in favour of the EU 30% GHG mitigation target that has been proposed to replace the previous 20% GHG emission reduction objective approved by the EU within the well-known 20-20-20 climate and energy package. By developing and applying a recursive, dynamic, very detailed CGE model with energy generation from both fossil fuel and renewable sources, we address this issue by estimating the cost for different EU countries and industries of the EU climate and energy package under a set of alternative international scenarios on global GHG mitigation efforts. Results show that, thanks to the EU economic recession, achieving a 20% GHG emission reduction entails a moderate cost for the European Union - about 0.5% of EU GDP – even in the case of EU unilateral action. This cost could be reduced to almost zero if not only the European Union, but also the other major world economies, comply with the “low pledge” Copenhagen Accord. A 30% GHG emission reduction target would certainly be more costly: the total loss in the European Union would be 1.26% of EU GDP in the case of EU unilateral action, whereas the total cost would be 0.55% of EU GDP if all major economies reduce their own GHG emissions according to the “low pledge” Copenhagen Accord. Both border tax adjustments and free allocation of carbon permits are shown to be successful in reducing some adverse competitiveness effects of the EU GHG mitigation policy into energy intensive sectors, but at the expenses of the other economic sectors.
Spin polarization of the L-gap surface states on Au(111)

description: The electron spin polarization (ESP) of the L-gap surface states on Au(111) is investigated theoretically by means of first-principles electronic-structure and photoemission calculations. The surface states show a large spin-orbit induced in-plane ESP which is perpendicular to the in-plane wavevector, in close analogy to a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit interaction. The surface corrugation leads to a small ESP component normal to the surface, being not reported so far. The surface-states ESP can be probed qualitatively and quantitatively by spin- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, provided that the initial-state ESP is retained in the photoemission process and not obscured by spin-orbit induced polarization effects. Relativistic photoemission calculations provide detailed information on what photoemission set-ups allow to conclude from the photoelectron ESP on that of the surface states.

Linking halo mass to galaxy luminosity

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we present a new, essentially empirical, model for the relation between the mass of a dark matter halo/subhalo and the luminosity of a galaxy hosted in it. To estimate this, we replace the assumption of linearity between light and mass fluctuations with the assumption of monotonicity between galaxy light and halo or subhalo mass. We are enabled to proceed with this less restrictive ansatz by the availability of new, very high resolution dark matter simulations and more detailed and comprehensive global galactic luminosity functions. We find that the relation between halo/subhalo mass and hosted galaxy luminosity is fairly well fit by a double power law, while that between halo mass and group luminosity is fairly well fit by a two branch function, with both branches double power laws. Both relations asymptote to $L\propto M^4$ at low $M$, while at high mass the former follows $L\propto M^{0.28}$ and the latter $L\propto M^{0.9}$. We also derive results for the occupation number, luminosity function of cluster galaxies, group luminosity function and multiplicity function. Then, using some additional assumptions, we further derive results for biasing between mass and light and mass and galaxy number, light distribution function and the void probability distribution. Our results for the most part seem to match well with observations and previous expectations. We feel this is a potentially powerful way of modelling this relation, since the main inputs are readily testable against dark matter simulation results and galaxy surveys. (abridged)

description: Abnormalities in pupillary light reflex can indicate optic nerve disorders that may lead to permanent visual loss if not diagnosed in an early stage. In this study, we focus on relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD), which is based on the difference between the reactions of the eyes when they are exposed to light stimuli. Incumbent RAPD assessment methods are based on subjective practices that can lead to unreliable measurements. To eliminate subjectivity and obtain reliable measurements, we introduced an automated framework to detect RAPD. For validation, we conducted a clinical study with lab-on-a-headset, which can perform automated light reflex test. In addition to benchmarking handcrafted algorithms, we proposed a transfer learning-based approach that transformed a deep learning-based generic object recognition algorithm into a pupil detector. Based on the conducted experiments, proposed algorithm RAPDNet can achieve a sensitivity and a specificity of 90.6% over 64 test cases in a balanced set, which corresponds to an AUC of 0.929 in ROC analysis. According to our benchmark with three handcrafted algorithms and nine performance metrics, RAPDNet outperforms all other algorithms in every performance category.

description: We investigate highly damped quasinormal mode of single-horizon black holes motivated by its relation to the loop quantum gravity. Using the WKB approximation, we show that the real part of the frequency approaches the value $T_{\rm H}\ln 3$ for dilatonic black hole as conjectured by Medved et al. and Padmanabhan. It is surprising since the area specrtum of the black hole determined by the Bohr's correspondence principle completely agrees with that of Schwarzschild black hole for any values of the electromagnetic charge or the dilaton coupling. We discuss its generality for single-horizon black holes and the meaning in the loop quantum gravity.

An Exploration of the Link Between Development, Economic Growth, and Natural Risk

description: This paper investigates the link between development, economic growth, and the economic losses from natural disasters in a normative analytical framework, with an illustration on hurricane flood risks in New Orleans. It concludes that, where capital accumulates through increased density of capital at risk in a given area, it is optimal for (i) the probability of disaster occurrence to decrease with income; (ii) the capital at risk – and thus the economic losses in case of disaster – to increase faster than economic growth; (iii) the average annual losses to grow faster than income at low levels of development and slower than income at high levels of development. In that case, increasing risk-taking reinforces economic growth, and improving protections transfer risks from frequent low-intensity events to rarer high-impact events. These findings are robust to a broad range of modeling choices and parameter values, and to the inclusion of risk aversion. Risk-taking is both a driver and a consequence of economic development, and should not be indiscriminately suppressed. The observation of a trend in disaster losses should not be confused with the presence of excessive risk taking. In a descriptive framework, suboptimal decision-making (the introduction of prospect theory's decision weights, biases in risk perception and myopic expectations) may amplify these trends and lead to excessive or insufficient risk taking. In all instances, the world is very likely to experience fewer but more costly disasters in the future.
Cluster-forming site AFGL 5157: colliding filamentary clouds and star formation

description: We observationally investigate star formation (SF) process occurring in AFGL 5157 (area ~13.5 pc X 13.5 pc) using a multi-wavelength approach. Embedded filaments are seen in the {\it Herschel} column density map, and one of them is identified as an elongated filamentary feature (FF) (length ~8.3 pc; mass ~1170 Msun). Five Herschel clumps (Mclump ~45-300 Msun) are traced in the central part of FF, where an extended temperature structure (Td ~13.5-26.5 K) is observed. In the direction of the central part of FF, the warmer region at Td ~20-26.5 K spatially coincides with a mid-infrared (MIR) shell surrounding a previously known evolved infrared cluster. Diffuse H-alpha emission is traced inside the infrared shell, suggesting the presence of massive stars in the evolved cluster. Based on the surface density analysis of young stellar objects (YSOs), embedded clusters of YSOs are traced toward the central part of FF, and are distributed around the infrared shell. Previously detected H2O masers, H2 knots, massive protostar candidates, and HII region are also seen toward the embedded clusters. Using the 12CO and 13CO line data, the central part of FF is observed at the overlapping zones of two filamentary molecular clouds (length ~12.5 pc) around -20 and -17 km/s, which are also connected in velocity. Our observational results suggest that the formation of massive stars appears to be triggered by a collision of two filamentary molecular clouds, which might have also influenced the birth of YSOs in AFGL 5157.

Cost-Reducing R&D in the Presence of an Appropriation Alternative: An Application to the Natural Resource Curse

description: This study proposes a new mechanism for the resource curse: crowding-out of innovation due to the existence of an option to engage in conflict. Using a game theoretical framework, it is argued that an increase in the amount of natural resources (in the informal sector here conflict for a common-pool rent materializes) reduces the incentives of entrepreneurial groups to engage in cost-reducing R&D (in the non-resource sector where production occurs). Compared to most models of the resource curse, the impact of resource abundance on income and welfare was interestingly observed to be non-monotonic. An increase in the amount of resources in the common pool induces intensified conflict among groups and less R&D investment. Depending on the relative strengths of the income and diversion effects, three scenarios were exhibited. First, there is a 1.) Pure Blessing. This happens when both the extent of technological spillovers and the initial level of resource are low. Starting from scarcity, the increase in natural resource generates an overall jump in the groups' income levels. Even if an increase in resources decreases innovation in the formal sector, both income and welfare still go up. Meanwhile, for intermediate initial values of the natural resource, there is a 2.) Pseudo-curse. A resource boom induces an immediate income effect. However, this income gain is dominated by the indirect diversion effect due to lower output and higher price (because of less cost-reducing R&D). Consequently, while income increases, the welfare of the economy decreases. The range of resource levels where this occurs is greater when spillovers are high. Finally, a 3.) Double Curse occurs for extremely high initial levels of natural resources. Both aggregate income of the economy and welfare suffer.
Stability of the iterative solutions of integral equations as one phase freezing criterion

description: A recently proposed connection between the threshold for the stability of the iterative solution of integral equations for the pair correlation functions of a classical fluid and the structural instability of the corresponding real fluid is carefully analyzed. Direct calculation of the Lyapunov exponent of the standard iterative solution of HNC and PY integral equations for the 1D hard rods fluid shows the same behavior observed in 3D systems. Since no phase transition is allowed in such 1D system, our analysis shows that the proposed one phase criterion, at least in this case, fails. We argue that the observed proximity between the numerical and the structural instability in 3D originates from the enhanced structure present in the fluid but, in view of the arbitrary dependence on the iteration scheme, it seems uneasy to relate the numerical stability analysis to a robust one-phase criterion for predicting a thermodynamic phase transition.

description: S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase deficiency due to pathologic variants in AHCY gene is a rare neurometabolic disease for which no eye phenotype has been documented. Pathologic variants in CRB1 gene are known to cause a wide spectrum of autosomal recessive retinal diseases with Leber’s congenital amaurosis as a most common. The aim of this study is to report co-inheritance of neurometabolic disease and eye disease in a pedigree. Comprehensive eye examination was performed in available family members together with color vision test, visual fields, fundus images, OCT, electroretinogram and visual evoked potentials. Genetic testing included whole-exome sequencing (WES), retinal dystrophy gene panel and segregation analysis. Two children from a family not known to be consanguineous were affected with neurometabolic disease and one of them presented with reduced vision due to maculopathy. The mother had symptoms of retinal degeneration of unspecified cause. Clinical WES revealed homozygous missense pathologic variants in AHCY gene c.148G>A, p.(Ala50Thr) as a cause of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase deficiency. Retinal dystrophy gene panel sequencing revealed two heterozygous missense pathologic variants in CRB1 gene c.1831T>C, p.(Ser611Pro) and c.3955T>C, p.(Phe1319Leu) in the proband and her mother. These variants segregated with disease phenotype in family members. Establishing an ocular genetic diagnosis may be challenging with the co-existence of a rare systemic genetic disease with previously unknown eye involvement. Extensive phenotyping and genotyping of available family members showed that the proband and her mother shared a CRB1-related retinopathy at different stages while the brother did not.

description: Multiple parton interactions in relativistic heavy ion reactions result in transverse momentum diffusion and medium induced non-Abelian energy loss of the hard probes traversing cold and hot nuclear matter. A systematic study of the interplay of nuclear effects on the $p_T \geq 2$ GeV inclusive hadron spectra demonstrates that the competition between nuclear shadowing, multiple scattering and jet quenching leads to distinctly different enhancement/suppression of moderate and high-$p_T$ hadron production in $d+Au$ and $Au+Au$ collisions at RHIC. The associated increase of di-jet acoplanarity, measured via the broadening of the back-to-back di-hadron correlation function, provides an additional experimental tool to test the difference in the dynamical properties of the media created in such reactions.

description: Dense stellar systems in general and star clusters in particular have recently regained the interest of the extragalactic and even cosmology communities, due to the role they could play as actors and probes of re-ionization, galactic archeology and the dark matter content of galaxies, among many others. In the era of the exploitation and the preparation of large stellar surveys (Gaia, APOGEE, 4MOST, WEAVE), of the detection of gravitational waves mostly originating from dense regions like the cores of clusters (Ligo, LISA), and in an always more holistic view of galaxy formation (HARMONI, Euclid, LSST, soon to be known as the Vera Rubin Survey Telescope, VRST), a complete theory on the formation and evolution of clusters is needed to interpret the on-going and forthcoming data avalanche. In this context, the community carries an effort to model the aspects of star cluster formation and evolution in galactic and even cosmological context. However, it is not always easy to understand the caveats and the shortcuts taken in theories and simulations, and their implications on the conclusions drawn. I take the opportunity of this document to highlight three of these topics and discuss why some shortcuts taken by the community are or could be misleading.

description: Law codes and regulations help organise societies for centuries, and as AI systems gain more autonomy, we question how human-agent systems can operate as peers under the same norms, especially when resources are contended. We posit that agents must be accountable and explainable by referring to which rules justify their decisions. The need for explanations is associated with user acceptance and trust. This paper's contribution is twofold: i) we propose an argumentation-based human-agent architecture to map human regulations into a culture for artificial agents with explainable behaviour. Our architecture leans on the notion of argumentative dialogues and generates explanations from the history of such dialogues; and ii) we validate our architecture with a user study in the context of human-agent path deconfliction. Our results show that explanations provide a significantly higher improvement in human performance when systems are more complex. Consequently, we argue that the criteria defining the need of explanations should also consider the complexity of a system. Qualitative findings show that when rules are more complex, explanations significantly reduce the perception of challenge for humans.

description: Effects of in-medium cross-sections and of optical potential on pre-equilibrium emission and on formation of a thermal source are investigated by comparing the results of transport simulations with experimental results from the p+{197}Au reaction at 6.2-14.6 GeV/c. The employed transport model includes light composite-particle production and allows for inclusion of in-medium particle-particle cross-section reduction and of momentum dependence in the particle optical-potentials. Compared to the past, the model incorporates improved parameterizations of elementary high-energy processes. The simulations indicate that the majority of energy deposition occurs during the first ~25 fm/c of a reaction. This is followed by a pre-equilibrium emission and readjustment of system density and momentum distribution toward an equilibrated system. Good agreement with data, on the d/p and t/p yield ratios and on the residue mass and charge numbers, is obtained at the time of ~ 65 fm/c from the start of a reaction, provided reduced in-medium cross-sections and momentum-dependent optical potentials are employed in the simulations. By then, the pre-equilibrium nucleon and cluster emission, as well as mean-field readjustments, drive the system to a state of depleted average density, rho/rho_{0} ~ 1/4-1/3 for central collisions, and low-to-moderate excitation, i.e. the region of nuclear liquid-gas phase transition.

description: Additional file 3. Heatmap showing the relative significance of the extent of conservation of binding sites classified based on their occurrence in the 5’, 3’ or middle region of a gene between pairs of region comparisons. Following the classification of all genes in the human genome into 3 equal segments namely 5’, 3’ and middle region, binding sites of RBPs were mapped onto these genic classes to study their conservation across 46 species. Heatmap shows the significance from Wilcoxon test for pairwise comparison of the different regions for each RBP for their extent of conservation. Darker blue shades correspond to more extreme differences between the compared regions for the extent of conservation of binding sites.

description: The explosive death of a star as a supernova is one of the most dramatic events in the Universe. Supernovae have an outsized impact on many areas of astrophysics: they are major contributors to the chemical enrichment of the cosmos and significantly influence the formation of subsequent generations of stars and the evolution of galaxies. Here we review the observational properties of thermonuclear supernovae, exploding white dwarf stars resulting from the stellar evolution of low-mass stars in close binary systems. The best known objects in this class are type Ia supernovae (SN Ia), astrophysically important in their application as standardisable candles to measure cosmological distances and the primary source of iron group elements in the Universe. Surprisingly, given their prominent role, SN Ia progenitor systems and explosion mechanisms are not fully understood; the observations we describe here provide constraints on models, not always in consistent ways. Recent advances in supernova discovery and follow-up have shown that the class of thermonuclear supernovae includes more than just SN Ia, and we characterise that diversity in this review.

description: With the advent of millimeter wave (mmWave) communications, the combination of a detailed 5G network simulator with an accurate antenna radiation model is required to analyze the realistic performance of complex cellular scenarios. However, due to the complexity of both electromagnetic and network models, the design and optimization of antenna arrays is generally infeasible due to the required computational resources and simulation time. In this paper, we propose a Machine Learning framework that enables a simulation-based optimization of the antenna design. We show how learning methods are able to emulate a complex simulator with a modest dataset obtained from it, enabling a global numerical optimization over a vast multi-dimensional parameter space in a reasonable amount of time. Overall, our results show that the proposed methodology can be successfully applied to the optimization of thinned antenna arrays.

description: CFH and HTRA1 are pivotal genes driving increased risk for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) among several populations. Here, we performed a hospital-based case-control study to evaluate the effects of three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) among Hispanics from Mexico. 122 cases and 249 controls were genotyped using Taqman probes. Experienced ophthalmologists diagnosed AMD following the American Association of Ophthalmology guidelines. We studied CFH (rs1329428, rs203687) and HTRA1 (rs11200638) SNPs thoroughly by logistic regression models (assuming different modes of inheritance) and machine learning-based methods (ML). HTRA1 rs11200638 is the most significant polymorphism associated with AMD in our studied population. In a multivariate regression model adjusted for clinically and statistically meaningful covariates, the A/G and A/A genotypes increased the odds of disease by a factor of 2.32 and 7.81, respectively (P p In sum, this work supports a strong association between HTRA1 genetic variants and AMD in Hispanics from Mexico, especially with GA. Moreover, ML was able to replicate the results of conventional biostatistics methods unbiasedly.

description: We report on detailed structural, electronic and magnetic studies of GdMn$_{1-x}$Cr$_x$O$_3$ for Cr doping levels 0 $\le$ $x$ $\le$ 1. In the solid solutions, the Jahn-Teller distortion associated with Mn$^{3+}$ ions gives rise to major changes in the ${bc}$-plane sub-lattice and also the effective orbital ordering in the ${ab}$-plane, which persist up to the compositions $x$ $\sim$ 0.35. These distinct features in the lattice and orbital degrees of freedom are also correlated with $bc$-plane anisotropy of the local Gd environment. A gradual evolution of electronic states with doping is also clearly seen in O $K$-edge x-ray absorption spectra. Evidence of magnetization reversal in field-cooled-cooling mode for $x$ $\ge$ 0.35 coinciding the Jahn-Teller crossover, suggests a close correlation between magnetic interaction and structural distortion. These observations indicate a strong entanglement between lattice, spin, electronic and orbital degrees of freedom. The nonmonotonic variation of remnant magnetization can be explained by doping induced modification of magnetic interactions. Density functional theory calculations are consistent with a layer-by-layer type doping with ferromagnetic (antiferomagnetic) coupling between Mn (Cr) ions for intermediate compound ($x$ = 0.5), which is distinct from that observed for the end members GMnO$_3$ and GdCrO$_3$.
On-demand single-photon state generation via nonlinear absorption

description: We propose a method for producing on-demand single-photon states based on collision-induced exchanges of photons and unbalanced linear absorption between two single-mode light fields. These two effects result in an effective nonlinear absorption of photons in one of the modes, which can lead to single photon states. A quantum nonlinear attenuator based on such a mechanism can absorb photons in a normal input light pulse and terminate the absorption at a single-photon state. Because the output light pulses containing single photons preserve the properties of the input pulses, we expect this method to be a means for building a highly controllable single photon source.

description: We present results from 42 simulations of late stage planetary accretion, focusing on the delivery of volatiles (primarily water) to the terrestrial planets. Our simulations include both planetary "embryos" (defined as Moon to Mars sized protoplanets) and planetesimals, assuming that the embryos formed via oligarchic growth. We investigate volatile delivery as a function of Jupiter's mass, position and eccentricity, the position of the snow line, and the density (in solids) of the solar nebula. In all simulations, we form 1-4 terrestrial planets inside 2 AU, which vary in mass and volatile content. In 42 simulations we have formed 43 planets between 0.8 and 1.5 AU, including 11 "habitable" planets between 0.9 and 1.1 AU. These planets range from dry worlds to "water worlds" with 100+ oceans of water (1 ocean = 1.5x10^24 g), and vary in mass between 0.23 and 3.85 Earth masses. There is a good deal of stochastic noise in these simulations, but the most important parameter is the planetesimal mass we choose, which reflects the surface density in solids past the snow line. A high density in this region results in the formation of a smaller number of terrestrial planets with larger masses and higher water content, as compared with planets which form in systems with lower densities. We find that an eccentric Jupiter produces drier terrestrial planets with higher eccentricities than a circular one. In cases with Jupiter at 7 AU, we form what we call "super embryos," 1-2 Earth mass protoplanets which can serve as the accretion seeds for 2+ Earth mass planets with large water contents.
