description: In this chapter I examine the theoretical underpinnings of conventional research evaluation systems based on production and citation bibliographic indicators and discuss why they are not suitable for appraising research in a context of sustainability. I argue that evaluations based on these indicators respond to a framework that overlooks the relationship between science and grand social, economic, and environmental challenges, which do not allow them to capture the concept of sustainability. Based on my experience and that of colleagues in Colciencias, I also discuss the barriers that policy makers wanting to implement radical changes in national research evaluation systems face, suggesting ways in which these barriers may be overcome. I maintain that experimenting with novel evaluation frameworks, such as RQ+, is needed to develop evaluations that respond to the increased societal demands from science while at the same time accounting for conventional research evaluations.

description: Traditionally, nanomaterial profiling using a single-molecule-terminated scanning probe is performed at the vacuum–solid interface often at a few Kelvin, but is not a notion immediately associated with liquid–solid interface at room temperature. Here, using a scanning tunnelling probe functionalized with a single C60 molecule stabilized in a high-density liquid, we resolve low-dimensional surface defects, atomic interfaces and capture Ångstrom-level bond-length variations in single-layer graphene and MoS2. Atom-by-atom controllable imaging contrast is demonstrated at room temperature and the electronic structure of the C60–metal probe complex within the encompassing liquid molecules is clarified using density functional theory. Our findings demonstrates that operating a robust single-molecular probe is not restricted to ultra-high vacuum and cryogenic settings. Hence the scope of high-precision analytics can be extended towards resolving sub-molecular features of organic elements and gauging ambient compatibility of emerging layered materials with atomic-scale sensitivity under experimentally less stringent conditions.

description: The extent to which biological diversity affects rates of diversification is central to understanding macroevolutionary dynamics, yet no consensus has emerged on the importance of diversity-dependence of evolutionary rates. Here, we analyse the species-level fossil record of early Palaeozoic graptoloids, documented with high temporal resolution, to test directly whether rates of diversification were influenced by levels of standing diversity within this major clade of marine zooplankton. To circumvent the statistical regression-to-the-mean artefact, whereby higher- and lower-than-average values of diversity tend to be followed by negative and positive diversification rates, we construct a non-parametric, empirically scaled, diversity-independent null model by randomizing the observed diversification rates with respect to time. Comparing observed correlations between diversity and diversification rate to those expected from this diversity-independent model, we find evidence for negative diversity-dependence, accounting for up to 12% of the variance in diversification rate, with maximal correlation at a temporal lag of approximately 1 Myr. Diversity-dependence persists throughout the Ordovician and Silurian, despite a major increase in the strength and frequency of extinction and speciation pulses in the Silurian. By contrast to some previous work, we find that diversity-dependence affects rates of speciation and extinction nearly equally on average, although subtle differences emerge when we compare the Ordovician and Silurian.

description: The provision of adoption guidelines will help implement the FAIR4RS Principles. The FAIR4RS Working Group formed subgroups to address milestones (as contained in the case statement), including a subgroup on adoption guidelines, FAIR4RS Subgroup 5. This document provides an overview of the resources identified and reviewed by this subgroup, along with an analysis of gaps, in order to facilitate the adoption of the FAIR4RS Principles. Emerging resources or projects are also documented, and suggestions are made on how to further advance this area. We expect this survey and gap analysis will be useful to a range of stakeholders seeking resources on how to implement the FAIR4RS Principles, including members of the Research Software Engineering (RSE) and research data management communities, as well as funding bodies, editorial boards of journals and conferences, and research institutions. This survey is supplemented by a dataset which can be downloaded and cited: Martinez, et al. (2022). A Survey on Adoption Guidelines for the FAIR4RS Principles: Dataset (1.0) [Data set].

description: The path towards the production of \textit{r}-process seed nuclei follows a course where the neutron-rich light and medium mass nuclei play a crucial role. The neutron capture rates for these exotic nuclei could dominate over their $α$-capture rates, thereby enhancing their abundances at or near the drip line. We calculate the radiative neutron capture cross-section for the $^{33}$Na(n,$γ)^{34}$Na reaction via the Coulomb dissociation of $^{34}$Na as it undergoes elastic breakup on $^{208}$Pb when directed at a beam energy of 100 MeV/u using the entirely quantum mechanical theory of finite range distorted wave Born approximation upgraded to incorporate deformation effects. The non-resonant one neutron radiative capture cross-section for $^{33}$Na(n,$γ)^{34}$Na is calculated and is found to increase with increasing deformation of $^{34}$Na. An analytic scrutiny of the capture cross-section with neutron separation energy as a parameter is also done at different energy ranges. The calculated reaction rate is compared with the rate of the $^{33}$Na($α$,n)$^{36}$Al reaction (deduced from the Hauser-Feshbach theory), and is found to be significantly higher below a temperature of $T_9 = 2$. Further, at the equilibrium temperature of $T_9 = 0.62$, the rate for the neutron capture had a small but non-negligible dependence on the structural parameters of $^{34}$Na. In addition, this neutron capture rate exceeded that of the $α$-capture reaction by orders of magnitude, indicating that the $α$-process should not break the (n,$γ$) \textit{r-}process path at the $^{33}$Na isotope, thus, effectively pushing the abundance of sodium isotopes towards the neutron drip line.

description: Nowadays, a number of scripts are used for writing. Script identification finds many applications like sorting and preparing an online database of documents. Identifying these scripts, especially with different orientations and scales, is an important and challenging problem in document image analysis. This paper proposed a new scheme for script identification from word images using skew and scale robust log-polar curvelet features. These word images are first extracted in the form of text-patches from documents using Gaussian filtering. Thereafter, texture features are calculated using curvelet transform in log-polar domain. Log-polar domain is independent of rotation and scale variations, whereas curvelet transform exhibits directional and anisotropic properties. This helps in the extraction of significant features. For experiments, k-nearest neighbor classifier is employed to identify the scripts, as it has zero training time and is simple to implement. Further, statistical significance test is performed by using two more classifiers, namely random forest and support vector machine. Comprehensive experimentations are carried out on ALPH-REGIM, Pati and Ramakrishnan, PHDIndic_11, and proprietary databases containing printed as well as handwritten texts. Here, bi-script, tri-script, and multi-script identification results are reported. Benchmarking analysis illustrated the effectiveness of the proposed method, where a maximum recall rate of 98.76% has been achieved.

description: The width of the $f_1 (1285) \to e^+e^-$ decay is calculated in the vector meson dominance model. The result depends on the relative phase between two coupling constants describing $f_1 \to ρ^0γ$ decay. The width $Γ(f_1 \to e^+e^-)$ is estimated to be $\simeq 0.07-0.19$ eV. Direct $f_1$ production in $e^+e^-$ collisions is discussed, and the $e^+e^- \to f_1\to a_0 π\to ηππ$ cross section is calculated. Charge asymmetry in the $e^+e^- \to ηπ^+ π^-$ reaction due to interference between $e^+e^- \to f_1$ and $e^+e^- \to ηρ^0$ amplitudes is studied.

title: Activity Profiles of Professional and Semi-Professional Football Players with Special Reference to Positional Differences
Creators: name: Wield, Jacob
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: Purpose: We tested the hypothesis that professional football players would run a further total distance (km), high speed distance (>5m/s) and perform more accelerations (>2m/s) and decelerations (>2m/s) than semi-professional football players over the course of the 2019/20 season. Method: 22 male League 1 and 24 Isthmian League Southeast Division football players were tracked using a 10Hz Playertek (Catapult, Australia) GPS devices during the 2019/20 season. The study examined retrospective data already gathered by the clubs for the respective games in the season. A Playertek GPS system was used to capture total distance (km), high-speed running distance (>5m/s) as well as the accelerations (2m/s) and decelerations (>2m/s) of all outfield players. Players were assigned into three different categories based on their position, which was either defender, midfielder or attacker. Statistical analysis was conducted using a mixed model ANNOVA using SPSS statistics (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) with statistical significance set at P < 0.05. Results: Professional football players performed more statistically significant total running distance for both defenders (mean SD: professional, 11.78 ± 0.64 km; semi-professional, 9.13 ± 0.35 km, P<0.01) and midfielders (mean SD: professional, 11.91 ± 1.13 km; semi-professional, 9.60 ± 0.91 km, P<0.01). With semi-professional attackers completing more decelerations (mean SD: semi-professional, 214.32 ± 53.76; professional, 156.98 ± 18.36, P=0.026) than professional football players. No difference was noted for total distance for attackers and no difference in high-speed distance and accelerations for any position. For all variables there was also no difference found intra-team for all positions in both the professional and semi-professional team. Conclusion: There were evidently clear differences between professional and semi-professional football players in total distance and decelerations. However, this might not be as evident as first thought. This can be attributed to several external factors such as opposition quality, strategy, tactics and training level of the athletes. More research is needed to examine the differences between professional and semi-professional teams with an emphasis on more specific positional grouping to help differentiate positions better.

description: We compute the fluxes of radio photons from conversion of axion-like particle dark matter in cosmic magnetic fields. We find that for axion-like particle masses around $10^{-6}\,$eV and effective coupling constants to photons $g_{aγ}\gtrsim10^{-13}\,{\rm GeV}^{-1}$ strongly magnetized nearby stellar winds may give detectable line-like radio photon signals, although predicted fluxes are highly uncertain due to the poorly known structure of the magnetic fields. Nevertheless, it may be worth while to conduct a dedicated search in the direction of such sources. When combined with a possible future laboratory detection of axion-like dark matter such observations may in turn provide information on the small scale magnetic field structure in such objects.

description: We report a detailed study of the microscopic effects of Cu intercalation on the charge density wave (CDW) in 1\textit{T}-Cu$_x$TiSe$_2$. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) reveal a unique, Cu driven spatial texturing of the charge ordered phase, with the appearance of energy dependent CDW patches and sharp $π$-phase shift domain walls ($π$DWs). The energy and doping dependencies of the patchwork are directly linked to the inhomogeneous potential landscape due to the Cu intercalants. They imply a CDW gap with unusual features, including a large amplitude, the opening below the Fermi level and a shift to higher binding energy with electron doping. Unlike the patchwork, the $π$DWs occur independently of the intercalated Cu distribution. They remain atomically sharp throughout the investigated phase diagram and occur both in superconducting and non-superconducting specimen. These results provide unique atomic-scale insight on the CDW ground state, questioning the existence of incommensurate CDW domain walls and contributing to understand its formation mechanism and interplay with superconductivity.

description: In compressive fracture of dry plexiform bone, we examine the individual roles of overall mean porosity, the connectivity of the porosity network, and the elastic as well as the failure properties of the non-porous matrix, using a random spring network model. Porosity network structure is shown to reduce the compressive strength by upto 30%. However, the load bearing capacity increases with increase in either of the matrix properties - elastic modulus or failure strain threshold. To validate the porosity-based RSNM model with available experimental data, bone-specific failure strain thresholds for the ideal matrix of similar elastic properties were estimated to be within 60% of each other. Further, we observe the avalanche size exponents to be independent of the bone-dependent parameters as well as the structure of the porosity network.

description: We study Andreev reflection and Andreev levels $\varepsilon$ in Zeeman-split superconductor/Rashba wire/Zeeman-split superconductor junctions by solving the Bogoliubov de-Gennes equation. We theoretically demonstrate that the Andreev levels $\varepsilon$ can be controlled by tuning either the strength of Rashba spin-orbit interaction or the relative direction of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction and the Zeeman field. In particular, it is found that the magnitude of the band splitting is tunable by the strength of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction and the rength of the wire, which can be interpreted by a spin precession in the Rashba wire. We also find that if the Zeeman field in the superconductor has the component parallel to the direction of the junction, the $\varepsilon$-$ϕ$ curve becomes asymmetric with respect to the superconducting phase difference $ϕ$. Whereas the Andreev reflection processes associated with each pseudospin band are sensitive to the relative orientation of the spin-orbit field and the exchange field, the total electric conductance interestingly remains invariant.

description: The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of video-game technology in the design and implementation of interactive sonic centric artworks, the purpose of which is to create and contribute to the discourse and understanding of its effectiveness in electro-acoustic composition highlighting the creative process. Key research questions include: How can the language of electro-acoustic music be placed in a new framework derived from videogame aesthetics and technology? What new creative processes need to be considered when using this medium? Moreover, what aspects of 'play' should be considered when designing the systems? The findings of this study assert that composers and sonic art practitioners need little or no coding knowledge to create exciting applications and the myriad of options available to the composer when using video-game technology is limited only by imagination. Through a cyclic process of planning, building, testing and playing these applications the project revealed advantages and unique sonic opportunities in comparison to other sonic art installations. A portfolio of selected original compositions, both fixed and open are presented by the author to complement this study. The commentary serves to place the work in context with other practitioners in the field and to provide compositional approaches that have been taken.

description: Tunneling of the spins in the Fe$_8$ molecular magnet from a metastable ground state to an excited state is accompanied by a decay of these spins to the global ground state, and an increase of the crystal temperature. We measured this temperature using two thermometers, one strongly coupled and the other weakly coupled to the thermal bath. We found that the temperature increases to no greater than $2.2$~K. This upper limit agrees with the flame temperature derived from deflagration theory and previous measurements. In light of this temperature increase we re-examine the Landau, Zener and Stuckelberg (LZS) theory of spin tunneling in large Fe$_8$ crystals.

description: The document details the Data Management Plan (DMP) for the iSee project. It describes how the different data produced or consumed by the project are handled during the entire lifetime of the project. The scope of this document is to provide a reference document describing how data assets are organized, secured, made available, transported and protected, from their generation to destruction. This Data Management Plan seeks at addressing the following two objectives:
 1. This document provides a comprehensive overview of all data used, collected or generated in the project and a characteristization of the data. It ensures that the appropriate governance policies are in place to meet legal, security, regulatory or ethical requirements. 2. Most European research funding agencies (such as the ANR in France) require all projects funded in 2019 onwards to produce a Data Management Plan (DMP). This is intended to support European and international alignment efforts on the structure of open research data, and is guided by the principle: “as open as possible, as closed as necessary”. The data management plan evolves along with the project with continuous adaptations as the data and project change.

description: We obtained $XMM-Newton$ observations of two highly luminous dust-reddened quasars, F2M1113+1244 and F2M1656+3821, that appear to be in the early, transitional phase predicted by merger-driven models of quasar/galaxy co-evolution. These sources have been well-studied at optical through mid-infrared wavelengths and are growing relatively rapidly, with Eddington ratios $>30\%$. Their black hole masses are relatively small compared to their host galaxies placing them below the $M_{\rm BH} - L_{\rm bulge}$ relation. We find that for both sources, an absorbed power-law model with $1-3\%$ of the intrinsic continuum scattered or leaked back into the line-of-sight best fits their X-ray spectra. We measure the absorbing column density ($N_H$) and constrain the dust-to-gas ratios in these systems, finding that they lie well below the Galactic value. This, combined with the presence of broad emission lines in their optical and near-infrared spectra, suggests that the dust absorption occurs far from the nucleus, in the host galaxy, while the X-rays are mostly absorbed in the nuclear, dust-free region within the sublimation radius. We also compare the quasars' absorption-corrected, rest-frame X-ray luminosities ($2-10$ keV) to their rest-frame infrared luminosities (6$μ$m) and find that red quasars, similar to other populations of luminous obscured quasars, are either underluminous in X-rays or overluminous in the infrared.

description: Large-scale deep neural networks (DNNs) are both compute and memory intensive. As the size of DNNs continues to grow, it is critical to improve the energy efficiency and performance while maintaining accuracy. For DNNs, the model size is an important factor affecting performance, scalability and energy efficiency. Weight pruning achieves good compression ratios but suffers from three drawbacks: 1) the irregular network structure after pruning; 2) the increased training complexity; and 3) the lack of rigorous guarantee of compression ratio and inference accuracy. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes CirCNN, a principled approach to represent weights and process neural networks using block-circulant matrices. CirCNN utilizes the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)-based fast multiplication, simultaneously reducing the computational complexity (both in inference and training) from O(n2) to O(nlogn) and the storage complexity from O(n2) to O(n), with negligible accuracy loss. Compared to other approaches, CirCNN is distinct due to its mathematical rigor: it can converge to the same effectiveness as DNNs without compression. The CirCNN architecture, a universal DNN inference engine that can be implemented on various hardware/software platforms with configurable network architecture. To demonstrate the performance and energy efficiency, we test CirCNN in FPGA, ASIC and embedded processors. Our results show that CirCNN architecture achieves very high energy efficiency and performance with a small hardware footprint. Based on the FPGA implementation and ASIC synthesis results, CirCNN achieves 6-102X energy efficiency improvements compared with the best state-of-the-art results.

description: Latour does not seek any “hidden” reasons behind actions; there is not a dictionary or encyclopedia explaining the sources of the behaviors of the actors. No meta-language is in question. The analyst cannot address any invisible agency. If an agency is invisible, then it has no effect, therefore it is not an agency. If an analyst says: “No one mentions it. For Latour, agency is not limited to human beings, but objects should also be counted as agents which is one of the most attractive aspect of actor-network theory.

description: When Phase III treatment effect is diluted from what was observed from Phase II results, we propose to determine the Bayesian sample size for a Phase III clinical trial based on the normal, uniform, and truncated normal prior distributions of the treatment effects on an interval, which starts from an acceptable treatment effect to the observed treatment effect from Phase II. After incorporating the prior information of the treatment effects, the Bayesian sample size is the number of patients of the Phase III trial for a given Bayesian Predictive Power (BPP) or Bayesian Historical Predictive Power (BHPP). After that, the numerical simulations are carried out to determine the Bayesian sample size for the Phase III clinical trial. In particular, there exists a hook phenomenon for the BHPP when the number of patients of the Phase II trial equals 70 assuming the normal, uniform, or truncated normal treatment effect. Moreover, we add some sensitivity analysis of the Bayesian sample size about the parameters in the simulations. Finally, we determine the Bayesian sample size (number of events or deaths) of the Phase III trial for a fixed power, Bayesian Historical Power (BHP), and BHPP in the axitinib example.
From perception to objectivity: How think tanks' search for credibility may lead to a more rigorous assessment of research quality

description: The diversity of think tank formation and development has created fertile ground for innovation with respect to how they communicate evidence and advice. Their emphasis on non-academic impact demands that they pay attention to how multiple audiences perceive them and their work: what the worry about most is the relevance and usefulness of their work. Therefore, while objectively verifiable assessments of the quality of their research are important, subjective factors play make a greater contribution to the credibility of think tanks and their research. In their search for credibility think tanks have adopted rather successful approaches to communicating evidence that are compatible with research centres which, by their nature, would place greater emphasis on objectively verifiable indicators of research quality. These approaches make it possible to develop new relationships that facilitate a closer, deeper and longer engagement with multiple publics; which has the unintended effect of refocusing the assessment of their credibility from subjective to objective criteria. To establish and maintain these relationships, however, research centres will have to usher in important changes to the way they are managed, funded, the way they undertake research, and the strategies they use to communicate.
