description: Seismic events (icequakes) associated with floating ice sheets on lakes are a frequently observed phenomenon. We find at our study site on the frozen Lake St. Moritz in the Swiss Alps typically a clear diurnal pattern with hundreds to thousands of icequake signals per hour during night time, while the rate of observed events during daytime is about two orders of magnitude smaller. The seismicity rate shows a significant correlation with temperature changes. It is therefore assumed that the generation of the ice quakes is related to melting and freezing processes as well as the extension and contraction of the ice. Potentially the seismicity rate is also moderated by loading and unloading due to human activities on the ice and/or lake level changes.

These ice quakes generate seismic waves that propagate through the thin ice sheet as plate waves modulated by the air and water half-spaces above and below the ice (quasi-guided waves). One member of this wave-type family, the quasi-Scholte waves, are characterised by distinct dispersion that can be observed with seismic sensors on the ice. Furthermore, the seismic waves traveling through the ice couple into the air leading to audible seismo-acoustic signals. One particularity of the ice-air coupling is a so-called coincidence phenomenon. The particular velocity-frequency combination where the seismic wavelength in the ice matches the apparent acoustic wavelength in the air leads to a resonance phenomenon. Observation of the related coincidence frequency allows us, for example, to infer on the ice thickness from the acoustic observations with a low cost microphone above the ice only. Recording the acoustic signals with small microphone arrays enables additionally, for example, locating the source of the seismo-acoustic signal.

Combined observations of the seismic and acoustic signals provide new insights into the seismicity of lake ice which has rarely been studied in the past. The seismo-acoustic signals have the potential to provide information about the ice properties such as thickness and ice quality as well as waxing and waning processes of ice sheets. These observations are relevant for safe operations on the ice but also to complement other remote-sensing observations with autonomous in situ seismo-acoustic measurements for climate studies.

description: On the surface of time-reversal-invariant topological superconductors, Kramers pairs of Majorana fermions with chiral and crystalline symmetries exhibit completely uniaxial or octupole anisotropic magnetic response. This paper reports possible types of magnetic responses of Majorana Kramers pairs with one-dimensional Z2 invariants defined by crystalline symmetry. In particular, the general theory predicts a new type of magnetic response where two Majorana Kramers pairs associated with the Z2 invariant show biaxially (quadrupolar) anisotropic magnetic response, which is a novel type of response that is rarely observed in conventional and Majorana fermions.

description: We discuss the possibility of the spontaneous symmetry breaking characterized by order parameters with higher dimensionful composite fields. By analyzing general Ginzburg-Landau potential for a complex scalar field ϕ=ϕ_1 + i ϕ_2 with O(2) symmetry, we demonstrate that a phase characterized by < ϕ_1^2 - ϕ_2^2 > \neq 0 with < ϕ_1 >=< ϕ_2 >=0 is realized in a certain parameter region. To clarify the driving force to favor this phase, we study the O(2) ϕ^6 theory in three dimensions.

description: We present a new solver for coupled nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs). The solver is based on pseudo-spectral collocation with domain decomposition and can handle one- to three-dimensional problems. It has three distinct features. First, the combined problem of solving the PDE, satisfying the boundary conditions, and matching between different subdomains is cast into one set of equations readily accessible to standard linear and nonlinear solvers. Second, touching as well as overlapping subdomains are supported; both rectangular blocks with Chebyshev basis functions as well as spherical shells with an expansion in spherical harmonics are implemented. Third, the code is very flexible: The domain decomposition as well as the distribution of collocation points in each domain can be chosen at run time, and the solver is easily adaptable to new PDEs. The code has been used to solve the equations of the initial value problem of general relativity and should be useful in many other problems. We compare the new method to finite difference codes and find it superior in both runtime and accuracy, at least for the smooth problems considered here.

description: The task of open-set domain generalization (OSDG) involves recognizing novel classes within unseen domains, which becomes more challenging with multiple modalities as input. Existing works have only addressed unimodal OSDG within the meta-learning framework, without considering multimodal scenarios. In this work, we introduce a novel approach to address Multimodal Open-Set Domain Generalization (MM-OSDG) for the first time, utilizing self-supervision. To this end, we introduce two innovative multimodal self-supervised pretext tasks: Masked Cross-modal Translation and Multimodal Jigsaw Puzzles. These tasks facilitate the learning of multimodal representative features, thereby enhancing generalization and open-class detection capabilities. Additionally, we propose a novel entropy weighting mechanism to balance the loss across different modalities. Furthermore, we extend our approach to tackle also the Multimodal Open-Set Domain Adaptation (MM-OSDA) problem, especially in scenarios where unlabeled data from the target domain is available. Extensive experiments conducted under MM-OSDG, MM-OSDA, and Multimodal Closed-Set DG settings on the EPIC-Kitchens and HAC datasets demonstrate the efficacy and versatility of the proposed approach.

description: We perform experiments on an active chiral fluid system of self-spinning rotors in confining boundary. Along the boundary, actively rotating rotors collectively drives a unidirectional material flow. We systematically vary rotor density and boundary shape; boundary flow robustly emerges under all conditions. Flow strength initially increases then decreases with rotor density (quantified by area fraction $ϕ$); peak strength appears around a density $ϕ=0.65$. Boundary curvature plays an important role: flow near a concave boundary is stronger than that near a flat or convex boundary in the same confinements. Our experimental results in all cases can be reproduced by a continuum theory with single free fitting parameter, which describes the frictional property of the boundary. Our results support the idea that boundary flow in active chiral fluid is topologically protected; such robust flow can be used to develop materials with novel functions.

Self-existing objects and auto-generated information in chronology-violating space-times: A philosophical discussion

description: Closed time-like curves naturally appear in a variety of chronology-violating space-times. In these space-times, the Principle of Self-Consistency demands an harmony between local and global affairs that excludes grandfather-like paradoxes. However, self-existing objects trapped in CTCs are not seemingly avoided by the standard interpretation of this principle, usually constrained to a dynamical framework. In this paper we discuss whether we are committed to accept an ontology with self-existing objects if CTCs actually occur in the universe. In addition, the epistemological status of the Principle of Self-Consistency is analyzed and a discussion on the information flux through CTCs is presented.

Toward automatic avalanche detection with Distributed-Acoustic-Sensing leveraging telecommunication infrastructure

description: Snow avalanches pose significant threats in alpine regions, leading to considerable human and economic losses. The ability to promptly identify the locations and timing of avalanche events is essential for effective prediction and risk mitigation. Conventional automatic avalanche detection systems typically rely on radars and/or seismo-acoustic sensors. While these systems operate successfully regardless of weather conditions, their coverage is often confined to a single slope or a small catchment (distances < 3 km).

In our study, we demonstrate the feasibility of detecting snow avalanches using Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) through existing fiber-optic telecommunication cables. Our pilot experiment, conducted over the 2021/2022 winter, involved a 10km long fiber-optic dark cable running parallel to the Flüelapass road in the eastern Swiss Alps close to Davos. The DAS data reveal distinct evidence of numerous dry- and wet-snow avalanches, even when they do not reach the cable, as confirmed photographically. We show that avalanches can be distinguished from other signals (e.g., vehicle traffic) using a frequency-dependent STA/LTA attribute, enabling their detection with high spatiotemporal resolution. These findings pave the way for cost-effective and near-real-time avalanche monitoring over extensive distances, leveraging existing fiber-optic infrastructure.

From Little String Free Energies Towards Modular Graph Functions

description: We study the structure of the non-perturbative free energy of a one-parameter class of little string theories (LSTs) of A-type in the so-called unrefined limit. These theories are engineered by $N$ M5-branes probing a transverse flat space. By analysing a number of examples, we observe a pattern which suggests to write the free energy in a fashion that resembles a decomposition into higher-point functions which can be presented in a graphical way reminiscent of sums of (effective) Feynman diagrams: to leading order in the instanton parameter of the LST, the $N$ external states are given either by the fundamental building blocks of the theory with $N=1$, or the function that governs the counting of BPS states of a single M5-brane coupling to one M2-brane on either side. These states are connected via an effective coupling function which encodes the details of the gauge algebra of the LST and which in its simplest (non-trivial) form is captured by the scalar Greens function on the torus. More complicated incarnations of this function show certain similarities with so-called modular graph functions, which have appeared in the study of Feynman amplitudes in string- and field theory. Finally, similar structures continue to exist at higher instanton orders, which, however, also contain contributions that can be understood as the action of (Hecke) operators on the leading instanton result.

description: Third-party libraries (TPLs) provide ready-made implementations of various software functionalities and are frequently used in software development. However, as software development progresses through various iterations, there often remains an unused set of TPLs referenced in the application’s distributable. These unused TPLs become a prominent source of software bloating and are responsible for excessive consumption of resources, such as CPU cycles, memory, and mobile devices’ battery-usage. Thus, the identification of such bloat-TPLs is essential. We present a rapid, storage-efficient, obfuscation-resilient method to detect the bloat-TPLs. Our approach’s novel aspects are i) Computing a vector representation of a .class file using a model that we call Jar2Vec. The Jar2Vec model is trained using the Paragraph Vector Algorithm. ii) Before using it for training the Jar2Vec models, a .class file is converted to a normalized form via semantics-preserving transformations. iii) A Bloated Library Detector (BloatLibD) developed and tested with 27 different Jar2Vec models. These models were trained using different parameters and >30000 .class files taken from >100 different Java libraries available at MavenCentral.com. BloatLibD achieves an accuracy of 99% with an F1 score of 0.968 and outperforms the existing tools, viz., LibScout, LiteRadar, and LibD with an accuracy improvement of 74.5%, 30.33%, and 14.1%, respectively. Compared with LibD, BloatLibD achieves a response time improvement of 61.37% and a storage reduction of 87.93%. Our program artifacts are available at https://bit.ly/2WFALXf.

description: The ekpyrotic and cyclic universe scenarios have revived the idea that the density perturbations apparent in today's universe could have been generated in a `pre-singularity' epoch before the big bang. These scenarios provide explicit mechanisms whereby a scale invariant spectrum of adiabatic perturbations may be generated without the need for cosmic inflation, albeit in a phase preceding the hot big bang singularity. A key question they face is whether there exists a unique prescription for following perturbations through the bounce, an issue which is not yet definitively settled. This goal of this paper is more modest, namely to study a bouncing Universe model in which neither General Relativity nor the Weak Energy Condition is violated. We show that a perturbation which is pure growing mode before the bounce does not match to a pure decaying mode perturbation after the bounce. Analytical estimates of when the comoving curvature perturbation varies around the bounce are given. It is found that in general it is necessary to evaluate the evolution of the perturbation through the bounce in detail rather than using matching conditions.

description: This paper on agricultural transformation has studied changes in the cropping pattern, adoption process of new technology, sources of information about new technology and emerging threats to the existing cropping pattern in ten villages of the Spiti sub-division of Lahaul-Spiti district of Himachal Pradesh. The study based on the data collected from 200 sample households has revealed significant changes in the cropping pattern with traditional crops like potato, barley and black pea being increasingly replaced by green pea. Apple, another cash crop, is gaining popularity due to perceptible changes in climatic conditions. The factors that have led to the introduction of new crops include improved road connectivity, better means of transportation, decline in the demand of traditional crops, availability of favourable micro climatic niches, availability of new crop inputs like hybrid seeds, chemicals and fertilizes, emerging new markets, etc. The introduction of new crops/technology has taken 1 to 3 years. The officials of the state departments of agriculture and horticulture, followed by relatives and friends have been the important sources of information about new crops/technology. The study has listed some potential threats to the cultivation of high-value cash crops. The technological innovations in terms of educating the farmers about the latest package and practices on farming of high value cash crops, development of diseaseresistant varieties of crops like green pea are necessary for promoting economic viability and ecological sustainability in Himachal Pradesh. The most important policy support, therefore, would be enhanced investment on agricultural R&D for evolving new technologies to not only retain but also strengthen the comparative advantage being enjoyed by the state.

description: Dielectric laser acceleration is a versatile scheme to accelerate and control electrons with the help of femtosecond laser pulses in nanophotonic structures. We demonstrate here the generation of a train of electron pulses with individual pulse durations as short as $270\pm80$ attoseconds(FWHM), measured in an indirect fashion, based on two subsequent dielectric laser interaction regions connected by a free-space electron drift section, all on a single photonic chip. In the first interaction region (the modulator), an energy modulation is imprinted on the electron pulse. During free propagation, this energy modulation evolves into a charge density modulation, which we probe in the second interaction region (the analyzer). These results will lead to new ways of probing ultrafast dynamics in matter and are essential for future laser-based particle accelerators on a photonic chip.

description: Conflicts within non-profit making organizations present unique challenges that demand nuanced managerial strategies for effective resolution. This study delves into the intricacies of conflict management within the non-profit sector, specifically focusing on organizations in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. Non-profit making organizations, mandated by legislative acts, play a pivotal role in delivering welfare services to enhance the standard of living for citizens. The overarching objective of this research is to scrutinize and analyze the managerial strategies employed in addressing conflicts within these vital institutions. Conflict, inherent in organizational dynamics, can either be a catalyst for growth or a disruptive force. In the context of non-profit organizations, the stakes are higher, as the effectiveness of conflict management directly influences the delivery of essential services to the community. By situating the study in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria, a region characterized by diverse socio-economic challenges, the research aims to contextualize conflict management strategies within a specific geographical and cultural setting. Understanding how conflicts are navigated and resolved in this context can offer valuable insights applicable to similar non-profit organizations facing comparable challenges globally. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews to comprehensively explore the managerial strategies implemented in conflict resolution. Through the lens of organizational behavior, management theory, and socio-cultural dynamics, the research seeks to identify patterns, successes, and areas for improvement in conflict management within non-profit making organizations. In a broader societal context, the outcomes of this research hold implications for enhancing the efficacy of non-profit organizations as crucial agents of positive change. The findings aim to contribute not only to the academic discourse on conflict management but also to offer practical recommendations for organizational leaders, policymakers, and stakeholders involved in the non-profit sector

description: The Hopf fibration has inspired any number of geometric structures in physical systems, in particular in chiral liquid crystalline materials. Because the Hopf fibration lives on the three sphere, $\mathbb{S}^3$, some method of projection or distortion must be employed to realize textures in flat space. Here, we explore the geodesic-preserving gnomonic projection of the Hopf fibration, and show that this could be the basis for a new liquid crystalline texture with only splay and twist. We outline the structure and show that it is defined by the tangent vectors along the straight line rulings on a series of hyperboloids. The phase is defined by a lack of bend deformations in the texture, and is reminiscent of the splay-bend and twist-bend nematic phases. We show that domains of this phase may be stabilized through anchoring and saddle-splay.

description: The Wills functional $\mathcal{W}(K)$ of a convex body $K$, defined as the sum of its intrinsic volumes $\mathrm{V}_i(K)$, turns out to have many interesting applications and properties. In this paper we make profit of the fact that it can be represented as the integral of a log-concave function, which, furthermore, is the Asplund product of other two log-concave functions, and obtain new properties of the Wills functional (indeed, we will work in a more general setting). Among others, we get upper bounds for $\mathcal{W}(K)$ in terms of the volume of $K$, as well as Brunn-Minkowski and Rogers-Shephard type inequalities for this functional. We also show that the cube of edge-length 2 maximizes $\mathcal{W}(K)$ among all $0$-symmetric convex bodies in John position, and we reprove the well-known McMullen inequality $\mathcal{W}(K)\leq e^{\mathrm{V}_1(K)}$ using a different approach.

description: A pairing model for nucleons, introduced by Richardson in 1966, which describes proton-neutron pairing as well as proton-proton and neutron-neutron pairing, is re-examined in the context of the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. Specifically, this shows that the model is integrable by enabling the explicit construction of the conserved operators. We determine the eigenvalues of these operators in terms of the Bethe ansatz, which in turn leads to an expression for the energy eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian.

description: The impact of land reclamation has been explored on productivity, income and food security in the saltaffected regions of Uttar Pradesh. The study has revealed substantial farm-level benefits to the farmers due to sodic land reclamation. The cropping intensity has increased by 9.39 per cent during post- vis-àvis pre-reclamation period. The gross cultivated area increased by 13.65 per cent after land reclamation. Paddy and wheat yields have increased by 95 per cent and 194 per cent, respectively after reclamation. Better farm income has influenced household expenditure and standard of living which has ultimately enhanced food security of the resource-poor farmers. The majority of farmers opined that purchasing of foodgrains especially of rice and wheat, has declined and expenditure on fruits and vegetables has increased. There is a rise in the expenditure on house construction and children education after reclamation due to increase in farm income. The land reclamation programme has made a positive and significant contribution to livelihood security of small and marginal farmers. The study has concluded that household income and food security of resource-poor farmers in salt-affected areas can be improved through land reclamation programmes. The study has suggested that the large tracks of salt-affected lands that are lying barren in Uttar Pradesh and other states of the country should be treated for soil reclamation to improve the livelihood security of the resource-poor farmers and to strengthen food security of the country.

description: We show that the problem of non conservation of energy found in the spontaneous localization model developed by Ghirardi, Rimini and Weber is very similar to the inconsistency between the stochastic models for turbulence and the Navier-Stokes equation. This sort of analogy may be useful in the development of both areas.

Adjoint-Source Inversion of Microseismic Sources with DAS in Boreholes

description: Microseismic source processes can be closely monitored during hydraulic stimulations with optical fiber deployed behind borehole casing, using Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS). The Bedretto Underground Laboratory for the Geosciences and Geoenergies (BULGG) provides a test site at the scale of hundreds of meters (meso-scale), where multiple boreholes are instrumented with fibers around a stimulation well. This enables the characterization of source properties of induced seismicity thanks to the dense sampling of the wavefield close to the stimulated region.

In 2023 various stimulation activities in the BedrettoLab produced M<-1 events that were recorded on three fibers surrounding the stimulated region. The interrogated fibers are running through the stimulated seismicity zone, and surround the majority of the events. Some of these events are recorded with high coherency and signal-to-noise ratio, making them suitable for further source characterization, such as location and moment tensor inversion. These events were at the same time recorded with other co-located point sensors such as geophones and acoustic emission sensors, which enables comparison to other instruments.

In this work, we select and process a subset of events with clear DAS recordings, and invert for their location, source time and moment tensor components using an adjoint inversion method. This includes computing the full forward and adjoint wavefield and gradient using a spectral-element solver. Using the full waveforms to invert for these events greatly improves the resolution of the source estimates, allows for incorporation of the full velocity model, and only two simulations per iteration are required: a forward and adjoint simulation, and gradient computation. The receiver coverage of the focal spheres by the surrounding optical fibers is an excellent test bed for the method, and the simulated domain remains on the order of hundreds of meters, which means that the simulation can be pushed to high frequencies (>100 Hz). This study provides a step forward to monitoring microseismicity in hydraulic stimulations with fiber-optic measurements.

Distribution of Dark Matter around a Central Body, Pioneer Effect and Fifth Force

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Within the framework of the Projective Unified Field Theory the distribution of a dark matter gas around a central body is calculated. As a result the well-known formulas of the Newtonian gravitational interaction are altered. This dark matter effect leads to an additional radial force (towards the center) in the equation of motion of a test body, being used for the explanation of the so-called ``Pioneer effect'', measured in the solar system, but without a convincing theoretical basis up to now. Further the relationship of the occurring new force to the so-called ``fifth force'' is discussed.
