description: Behavioural responses to pandemics are less shaped by actual mortality or hospitalisation risks than they are by risk attitudes. We explore human mobility patterns as a measure of behavioural responses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our results indicate that risk-taking attitudes are a critical factor in predicting reductions in human mobility and social confinement around the globe. We find that the sharp decline in mobility after the WHO (World Health Organization) declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic can be attributed to risk attitudes. Our results suggest that regions with risk-averse attitudes are more likely to adjust their behavioural activity in response to the declaration of a pandemic even before official government lockdowns. Further understanding of the basis of responses to epidemics, e.g., precautionary behaviour, will help improve the containment of the spread of the virus.

description: The impact of quenched disorder on deterministic diffusion in chaotic dynamical systems is studied. As a simple example, we consider piecewise linear maps on the line. In computer simulations we find a complicated scenario of multiple suppression and enhancement of normal diffusion under variation of the perturbation strength. These results are explained by a theoretical argument showing that the oscillations emerge as a direct consequence of the unperturbed diffusion coefficient, which is known to be a fractal function of a control parameter.

description: We present a comparative study of the charmed baryon$-$nucleon interaction based on different theoretical approaches. For this purpose, we make use of i) a constituent quark model tuned in the light-flavor baryon$-$baryon interaction and the hadron spectra, ii) existing results in the literature based both on hadronic and quark-level descriptions, iii) (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD results of the HAL QCD Collaboration at unphysical pion masses and their effective field theory extrapolation to the physical pion mass. There is a general qualitative agreement among the different available approaches to the charmed baryon$-$nucleon interaction. Different from hadronic models based on one-boson exchange potentials, quark$-$model based results point to soft interactions without two-body bound states. They also support a negligible channel coupling, due either to tensor forces or to transitions between different physical channels, $Λ_c N - Σ_c N$. Short-range gluon and quark-exchange dynamics generate a slightly larger repulsion in the $^1S_0$ than in the $^3S_1$ $Λ_c N$ partial wave. A similar asymmetry between the attraction in the two $S$ waves of the $Λ_c N$ interaction also appears in hadronic approaches. A comparative detailed study of Pauli suppressed partial waves, as the $^1S_0 (I=1/2)$ and $^3S_1 (I=3/2)$ $Σ_c N$ channels, would help to disentangle the short-range dynamics of two-baryon systems containing heavy flavors. The possible existence of charmed hypernuclei is discussed.

description: This work outlines the quantitative procedures and results of the policy effects for alternative designs of federal revenue-based farm income safety net programs on eight individual representative farms across the state of Nebraska. Measures include financial impacts of the farm crop revenue-based safety net with a state revenue trigger versus potential alternative programs involving guarantees at the district, county, and farm levels. The methodology correlates national yield and prices with state, district, county, and farm-level yields. Results indicate that decreasing the aggregation of the revenue guarantee increases expected farm-level payments and program costs for the revenue-based safety net.

description: One issue that has persisted since the beginning of what might be referred to as a modern era of biological aerosol research (since the 1990’s), is absence of reference biological aerosols that would permit quantitative comparison among different experimental studies. We believe sufficient technical progress has been made bridging the diverse fields of biology, chemistry, physics and engineering to consider implementing well-characterized biological aerosols as reference standards. Establishment of methods and procedures which result in reliable and repeatable generation of well-characterized biological aerosols would enhance a wide range of different topics under investigation, and permit wider utility for data acquired from individual efforts. In this article we discuss some of the challenges and limitations for two general approaches for biological aerosol generation: solvent evaporation from liquid suspension droplets, and dry powder dispersal. We provide detailed descriptions of an example for each of these two approaches in which sufficient control is demonstrated over particle size distribution, total particle composition, biological constituent quantification and biological state (viability or enzymatic activity) to serve as a comparison among different experimental investigations. These two specific cases are intended as examples, not necessarily as prescriptions.

description: The Echelle spectrograph operating at Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT), India, is a general purpose instrument used for many high-resolution spectroscopic observations. A concerted effort is being made to expand the scientific capability of the instrument in emerging areas of observational astronomy. The present study is aimed at evaluating the feasibility of the spectrograph to carry out precision Radial Velocity (RV) measurements. In the current design, major factors limiting the RV precision of the spectrograph arise from the movable grating and slit; optical aberrations; positional uncertainty associated with optomechanical mounts and environmental and thermal instabilities in the spectrograph room. RV instabilities due to temperature and pressure variations in the environment are estimated to vary around 120 $ \textrm{ms}^{-1} $ and 400 $ \textrm{ms}^{-1} $ respectively. The positional uncertainty of the grating in the spectrograph could induce a spectral shift $\sim1.4\,\textrm{kms}^{-1} $ across the Echelle orders. A Zemax model is used to overcome the uncertainty in the zero-positioning and lack of repeatability of the moving components. We propose to obtain the ThAr lamp observations and using the Zemax model as the reference, predict the drifts in the positions of the optical components. The perturbations of the optical components from the nominal position are corrected at the beginning of the observational run. After a good match is obtained between the model and the observations, we propose to use a Zemax model to improve the wavelength calibration solution. We could match the observations and model within $\pm$~1 pixels accuracy after the model parameters were perturbed in a real-time setup of the spectrograph. In this paper, we present the estimation of the perturbations of optical components and the effect on the RV obtained.

description: The reconstruction of the invariant mass of $τ$ lepton pairs is important for analyses containing Higgs and Z bosons decaying to $τ^{+}τ^{-}$, but highly challenging due to the neutrinos from the $τ$ lepton decays, which cannot be measured in the detector. In this paper, we demonstrate how artificial neural networks can be used to reconstruct the mass of a di-$τ$ system and compare this procedure to an algorithm used by the CMS Collaboration for this purpose. We find that the neural network output shows a smaller bias and better resolution of the di-$τ$ mass reconstruction and an improved discrimination between a Higgs boson signal and the Drell-Yan background with a much shorter computation time.

description: To evaluate trimodal conservative treatment as an alternative to radical surgery for urothelial muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). This retrospective study reported the carcinologic and functional results of patients (pts) presenting a cT2/T3 N0M0 operable MIBC and fit for surgery, treated by a conservative strategy. Treatment consisted of a transurethral resection (TURB) followed by concomitant bi-fractionated split-course radiochemotherapy (RCT) with 5FU-Cisplatine. A control cystoscopy was performed six weeks after the induction RCT (eq45Gy) with systematic biopsies. Patients with complete histologic response achieved RCT protocol. Salvage surgery was proposed to pts with persistent tumor. 313 pts (83% cT2 and 17% cT3) treated between 1988 and 2013 were included, with a median follow-up of 59 months and 67-year mean age. After the induction RCT, the histologic response rate was 83%. After five years, overall, disease-free, and functional bladder-intact survival rates were respectively 69%, 61%, and 69%, significantly better for pts in complete response after induction RCT. Late urinary and digestive toxicities were limited, with respective rates of 4% and 1.5% of grade 3 toxicity. Trimodal strategy with RCT after TURB showed interesting functional and oncologic results and should be considered as an alternative to surgery in well-selected pts.

description: We present a series of SIR-network models, extended with a game-theoretic treatment of imitation dynamics which result from regular population mobility across residential and work areas and the ensuing interactions. Each considered SIR-network model captures a class of vaccination behaviours influenced by epidemic characteristics, interaction topology, and imitation dynamics. Our focus is the eventual vaccination coverage, produced under voluntary vaccination schemes, in response to these varying factors. Using the next generation matrix method, we analytically derive and compare expressions for the basic reproduction number $R_0$ for the proposed SIR-network models. Furthermore, we simulate the epidemic dynamics over time for the considered models, and show that if individuals are sufficiently responsive towards the changes in the disease prevalence, then the more expansive travelling patterns encourage convergence to the endemic, mixed equilibria. On the contrary, if individuals are insensitive to changes in the disease prevalence, we find that they tend to remain unvaccinated in all the studied models. Our results concur with earlier studies in showing that residents from highly connected residential areas are more likely to get vaccinated. We also show that the existence of the individuals committed to receiving vaccination reduces $R_0$ and delays the disease prevalence, and thus is essential to containing epidemics.

Equations of Motion in Kaluza-Klein Gravity Revisited
Creators: name: de Leon, J. Ponce
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We discuss the equations of motion of test particles for a version of Kaluza-Klein theory where the cylinder condition is not imposed. The metric tensor of the five-dimensional manifold is allowed to depend on the fifth coordinate. This is the usual working scenario in brane-world, induced-matter theory and other Kaluza-Klein theories with large extra dimensions. We present a new version for the fully covariant splitting of the 5D equations. We show how to change the usual definition of various physical quantities in order to make physics in 4D invariant under transformations in 5D. These include the redefinition of the electromagnetic tensor, force and Christoffel symbols. With our definitions, each of the force terms in the equation of motion is gauge invariant and orthogonal to the four-velocity of the particle. The "hidden" parameter associated with the rate of motion along the extra dimension is identified with the electric charge, regardless of whether there is an electromagnetic field or not. In addition, for charged particles, the charge-to-mass ratio should vary. Therefore, the motion of a charged particle should differ from the motion of a neutral particle, with the same initial mass and energy, even in the absence of electromagnetic field. These predictions have important implications and could in principle be experimentally detected.

Direct Urca processes in superdense cores of neutron stars

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We use the field theoretical model to perform relativistic calculations of neutrino energy losses caused by the direct Urca processes on nucleons in the degenerate baryon matter. By our analysis, in a free nucleon gas under beta equilibrium, the direct neutron decay is forbidden if the number density of neutrons exceeds the critical value $n_{n}^{c}=5.9\times 10^{31} cm^{-3}$. In superdense nuclear matter, $n>n_{0}$, the weak decay of neutrons is possible only due to strong interactions, caused by an exchange of isovector mesons. Mean field of isovector mesons in the medium creates a large energy gap between spectrums of protons and neutrons, which is required by kinematics of beta decay. Our expression for the neutrino energy losses, obtained in the mean field approximation, incorporates the effects of nucleon recoil, parity violation, weak magnetism, and pseudoscalar interaction. For numerical testing of our formula, we use a self-consistent relativistic model of the multicomponent baryon matter. The relativistic emissivity of the direct Urca reactions is found substantially larger than predicted in the non-relativistic approach. We found that, due to weak magnetism effects, relativistic emissivities increase by approximately 40-50%.

More importantly, a variant of it is seen to work desirably in certain singular situations where the celebrated inequality appears to be useless. The basic tenet generates a few other interesting relations, including the improvements over certain common uncertainty bounds. Role of projection operators in modifying the Cauchy-Schwarz relation is noted. Selected applications reveal the efficacy.

description: The aim of the current study was to achieve a dry powder formulation of vancomycin by spray drying whilst evaluating the effect of pH and excipient type and percentage used in formulation on particle characteristics and aerosolization performance. A D-optimal design was applied to optimize the formulation comprising vancomycin and two main excipient groups; a carbohydrate bulking agent (lactose, mannitol or trehalose) and a second excipient (hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin or L-leucine) at pH 4 and 7. The physicochemical properties of particles (size, morphology, crystallinity state, residual moisture content), stability, and aerosolization characteristics were investigated. Using the combination of two excipients increased the fine particle fraction of powder emitted from an Aerolizer® device at a flow rate of 60 L/min. Hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin showed more potential than L-leucine in aerosolization capabilities. Stability studies over 3 months of storage in 40 °C and 75% relative humidity suggested a good physical stability of the optimized formulation containing 17.39% hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin along with 29.61% trehalose relative to the amount of drug at pH 4. Use of two excipients including trehalose and hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin with a total weight ratio of 47% relative to the amount of drug is appropriate for the preparation of vancomycin dry powder formulation for inhalation.

description: We introduce a hierarchy of density of states to characterize the charge distribution in a mesoscopic conductor. At the bottom of this hierarchy are the partial density of states which represent the contribution to the local density of states if both the incident and the out-going scattering channel is prescribed. The partial density of states play a prominent role in measurements with a scanning tunneling microscope on multiprobe conductors in the presence of current flow. The partial density of states determine the degree of dephasing generated by a weakly coupled voltage probe. In addition the partial density of states determine the frequency-dependent response of mesoscopic conductors in the presence of slowly oscillating voltages applied to the contacts of the sample. The partial density of states permit the formulation of a Friedel sum rule which can be applied locally. We introduce the off-diagonal elements of the partial density of states matrix to describe charge fluctuation processes. This generalization leads to a local Wigner-Smith life-time matrix.

description: We study the spatial autocorrelation of energy eigenfunctions $ψ_n({\bf q})$ corresponding to classically chaotic systems in the semiclassical regime. Our analysis is based on the Weyl-Wigner formalism for the spectral average $C_ε({\bf q^{+}},{\bf q^{-}},E)$ of $ψ_n({\bf q}^{+})ψ_n^*({\bf q}^{-})$, defined as the average over eigenstates within an energy window $ε$ centered at $E$. In this framework $C_ε$ is the Fourier transform in momentum space of the spectral Wigner function $W({\bf x},E;ε)$. Our study reveals the chord structure that $C_ε$ inherits from the spectral Wigner function showing the interplay between the size of the spectral average window, and the spatial separation scale. We discuss under which conditions is it possible to define a local system independent regime for $C_ε$. In doing so, we derive an expression that bridges the existing formulae in the literature and find expressions for $C_ε({\bf q^{+}}, {\bf q^{-}},E)$ valid for any separation size $|{\bf q^{+}}-{\bf q^{-}}|$.

description: We study a time-dependent 5D metric which contains a static 4D sub-metric whose 3D part is spherically symmetric. An expansion in the metric coefficient allow us to obtain close-to Schwarzschild approximation to a class of spherically-symmetric solutions. Using Campbell's embedding theorem and the induced-matter formalism we obtain two 4D solutions. One describes a source with the stiff equation of state believed to be applicable to dense astrophysical objects, and the other describes a spherical source with a radial heat flow.

description: The neutrino emission due to formation and breaking of Cooper pairs of protons in superconducting cores of neutron stars is considered with taking into account the electromagnetic coupling of protons to ambient electrons. Our calculation shows that the contribution of the vector weak current to the $ν\barν$ emissivity of protons is much larger than that calculated by different authors without taking into account the plasma effects. Partial contribution of the pairing protons to the total neutrino radiation from the neutron star core is very sensitive to the critical temperatures for the proton and neutron pairing and can dominate in some domains of these parameters.

Traversable Wormholes in Higher Dimensional Theories of Gravity

description: Wormhole solutions in classical General Relativity are unstable and hence non traversable. Morris and Thorne discovered a traversable wormhole solution that required the energy momentum tensor of matter sources to violate various energy conditions and are out of the purview of the standard model of particle physics. The search for traversable wormhole solutions in Modified Theories of Gravity has been of significant interest in the decades after Morris and Thorne first published their results as such violations may be avoided in such theories. This work comprehensively reviews traversable wormhole solutions in modified theories of gravity with extra dimensions that satisfy the various energy conditions with an in depth look at the matter sources and the various constraints on the parameters of the theory to make the energy momentum of the matter sources respect the energy conditions.

description: In this work, we study the elastic scattering behavior of electron vortices when propagating through amorphous samples. We use a formulation of the multislice approach in cylindrical coordinates to theoretically investigate the redistribution of intensity between different angular momentum components due to scattering. To corroborate and elaborate on our theoretical results, we perform extensive numerical simulations on three model systems (Si$_3$N$_4$, Fe$_{0.8}$B$_{0.2}$, Pt) for a wide variety of experimental parameters to quantify the purity of the vortices, the net angular momentum transfer, and the variability of the results with respect to the random relative position between the electron beam and the scattering atoms. These results will help scientists to further improve the creation of electron vortices and enhance applications involving them.

description: Efficient management of water in unregulated river systems is essential in meeting current and future needs of water users and the environment. As an integral part of the new water management process, volumetric conversions convert current area based licences into volume based licences. Hydrology modelling determines the Daily Extraction Limits for different flow conditions in each management rule proposed for meeting environmental objectives in the catchment. The case study is the Adelong Creek Catchment, an unregulated river catchment in southeastern New South Wales. Economic and hydrological modelling assesses the impacts of proposed extraction rules, designed to meet environmental flow objectives, on water availability in the catchment. A spreadsheet based optimisation model was developed to assess the impacts of different flow management rules on the regional agricultural economy. The suitability of this approach will be assessed for application to other unregulated stream catchments.

description: To evaluate the targetability of late-stage cervical cancer by magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MRgHIFU)-induced hyperthermia (HT) as an adjuvant to radiation therapy (RT). Seventy-nine cervical cancer patients (stage IIIB–IVA) who received RT with lesions visible on positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) were retrospectively analyzed for targetability using a commercially-available HT-capable MRgHIFU system. Targetability was assessed for both primary targets and/or any metastatic lymph nodes using both posterior (supine) and anterior (prone) patient setups relative to the transducer. Thirty-four different angles of rotation along subjects’ longitudinal axis were analyzed. Targetability was categorized as: (1) Targetable with/without minimal intervention; (2) Not targetable. To determine if any factors could be used for prospective screening of patients, potential associations between demographic/anatomical factors and targetability were analyzed. 72.15% primary tumors and 33.96% metastatic lymph nodes were targetable from at least one angle. 49.37% and 39.24% of primary tumors could be targeted with patient laying in supine and prone positions, respectively. 25°–30° rotation and 0° rotation had the highest rate of the posterior and anterior targetability, respectively. The ventral depth of the tumor and its distance to the coccyx were statistically correlated with the anterior and posterior targetability, respectively. Most late-stage cervical cancer primaries were targetable by MRgHIFU HT requiring either no/minimal intervention. A rotation of 0° or 25°–30° relative to the transducer might benefit anterior and posterior targetability, respectively. Certain demographic/anatomic parameters might be useful in screening patients for treatability.
The solution of a chiral random matrix model with complex eigenvalues

description: We describe in detail the solution of the extension of the chiral Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (chGUE) into the complex plane. The correlation functions of the model are first calculated for a finite number of N complex eigenvalues, where we exploit the existence of orthogonal Laguerre polynomials in the complex plane. When taking the large-N limit we derive new correlation functions in the case of weak and strong non-Hermiticity, thus describing the transition from the chGUE to a generalized Ginibre ensemble. Applications to the Dirac operator eigenvalue spectrum in QCD with non-vanishing chemical potential are briefly discussed. This is an extended version of arXiv:hep-th/0204068.

description: We optimize the recording medium for heat-assisted magnetic recording by using a high/low $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ bilayer structure to reduce AC and DC noise. Compared to a former work, small Gilbert damping $α=0.02$ is considered for the FePt like hard magnetic material. Atomistic simulations are performed for a cylindrical recording grain with diameter $d=5\,$nm and height $h=8\,$nm. Different soft magnetic material compositions are tested and the amount of hard and soft magnetic material is optimized. The results show that for a soft magnetic material with $α_{\mathrm{SM}}=0.1$ and $J_{ij,\mathrm{SM}}=7.72\times 10^{-21}\,$J/link a composition with $50\%$ hard and $50\%$ soft magnetic material leads to the best results. Additionally, we analyse how much the areal density can be improved by using the optimized bilayer structure compared to the pure hard magnetic recording material. It turns out that the optimized bilayer design allows an areal density that is $1\,$Tb/in$^2$ higher than that of the pure hard magnetic material while obtaining the same SNR.
