description: Static and dynamic changes induced by adsorption of atomic hydrogen on the NiAl(110) lattice at 130 K have been examined as a function of adsorbate coverage. Adsorbed hydrogen exists in three distinct phases. At low coverages the hydrogen is itinerant because of quantum tunneling between sites and exhibits no observable vibrational modes. Between 0.4 ML and 0.6 ML, substrate mediated interactions produce an ordered superstructure with c(2x2) symmetry, and at higher coverages, hydrogen exists as a disordered lattice gas. This picture of how hydrogen interacts with NiAl(110) is developed from our data and compared to current theoretical predictions.

Cosmic opacity to CMB photons and polarization measurements

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Anisotropy data analysis leaves a significant degeneracy between primeval spectral index (n_s) and cosmic opacity to CMB photons (τ). Low--l polarization measures, in principle, can remove it. We perform a likelihood analysis to see how cosmic variance possibly affects such a problem. We find that, for a sufficiently low noise level (σ_{pix}) and if τis not negligibly low, the degeneracy is greatly reduced, while the residual impact of cosmic variance on n_s and τdeterminations is under control. On the contrary, if σ_{pix} is too high, cosmic variance effects appear to be magnified. We apply general results to specific experiments and find that, if favorable conditions occur, it is possible that a 2--σdetection of a lower limit on τis provided by the SPOrt experiment. Furthermore, if the PLANCK experiment will measure polarization with the expected precision, the error on low--l harmonics is adequate to determine τ, without significant magnification of the cosmic variance. This however indicates that high sensitivity might be more important than high resolution in τdeterminations. We also outline that a determination of τis critical to perform detailed analyses on the nature of dark energy and/or on the presence of primeval gravitational waves.

description: We consider an infinite chain of coupled harmonic oscillators with a Langevin thermostat attached at the origin and energy, momentum and volume conserving noise that models the collisions between atoms. The noise is rarefied in the limit, {that corresponds to the hypothesis} that in the macroscopic unit time only a finite number of collisions takes place (Boltzmann-Grad limit). We prove that, after the hyperbolic space-time rescaling, the Wigner distribution, describing the energy density of phonons in space-frequency domain, converges to a positive energy density function $W(t, y, k)$ that evolves according to a linear kinetic equation, with the interface condition at $y=0$ that corresponds to reflection, transmission and absorption of phonons. The paper extends the results of [3], where a thermostatted harmonic chain (with no inter-particle scattering) has been considered.
FlatteNet: A Simple Versatile Framework for Dense Pixelwise Prediction
Creators: name: Cai, Xin

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (cs.CV)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this paper, we focus on devising a versatile framework for dense pixelwise prediction whose goal is to assign a discrete or continuous label to each pixel for an image. It is well-known that the reduced feature resolution due to repeated subsampling operations poses a serious challenge to Fully Convolutional Network (FCN) based models. In contrast to the commonly-used strategies, such as dilated convolution and encoder-decoder structure, we introduce the Flattening Module to produce high-resolution predictions without either removing any subsampling operations or building a complicated decoder module. In addition, the Flattening Module is lightweight and can be easily combined with any existing FCNs, allowing the model builder to trade off among model size, computational cost and accuracy by simply choosing different backbone networks. We empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed Flattening Module through competitive results in human pose estimation on MPII, semantic segmentation on PASCAL-Context and object detection on PASCAL VOC. We hope that the proposed approach can serve as a simple and strong alternative of current dominant dense pixelwise prediction frameworks.

description: We reported the identification of two rare α-thalassemia silent carriers with novel HBA1 mutations of CD 39 -C [Thr > Pro] (HBA1: c.114del; p.Thr39Profs*11) and CD 109 ACC > CCC [Thr > Pro] (HBA1: c.325A > C; p. Thr109Pro), respectively. The two probands were pregnant women diagnosed with mild hypochromic anemia or microcytic hypochromic anemia by routine blood tests. They started iron therapy before taking differential diagnosis from iron deficiency anemia. After wait and watch approach, they both accepted thalassemia genetic screening, which identified CD 39 -C [Thr > Pro] and CD 109 ACC > CCC [Thr > Pro], respectively. Due to inappropriate iron therapy, worse anemia and iron overload were noticed in the first proband, but no obvious side effect was found in both probands. Functional analysis showed that, relative to the wild type, CD 39 -C [Thr > Pro] considerably reduced the expression of the HBA1 protein while CD 109 ACC > CCC [Thr > Pro] only had a minor impact. Our study highlighted the importance of gestational thalassemia screening based on next-generation sequencing for identifying novel rare thalassemia variants and increased our understanding about the relationship between genotype and phenotype of α-thalassemia.

description: Radiative decays of the $1^3S_1$ radial and $1^3D_1$ orbital excitations of the $ρ$, $ω$ and $ϕ$ are calculated in the quark model, using wave functions obtained variationally from the Hamiltonian with standard quark-model parameters. The larger radiative widths should be measurable at new high-intensity facilities being proposed, and in some cases may be measurable in data from existing experiments. The radiative decays are a strong discriminator between the $1^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ excitations, and can also be used to provide unique information about the decay products.

Cosmological attractors to general relativity and spontaneous scalarization with disformal coupling

description: The canonical scalar-tensor theory model which exhibits spontaneous scalarization in the strong-gravity regime of neutron stars has long been known to predict a cosmological evolution for the scalar field which generically results in severe violations of present-day Solar System constraints on deviations from general relativity. We study if this tension can be alleviated by generalizing this model to include a disformal coupling between the scalar field $φ$ and matter, where the Jordan frame metric ${\tilde g}_{μν}$ is related to the Einstein frame one $g_{μν}$ by ${\tilde g}_{μν}=A(φ)^2 (g_{μν}+Λ\, \partial_μφ\, \partial_νφ)$. We find that this broader theory admits a late-time attractor mechanism towards general relativity. However, the existence of this attractor requires a value of disformal scale of the order $Λ\gtrsim H_0^{-2}$, where $H_0$ is the Hubble parameter of today, which is much larger than the scale relevant for spontaneous scalarization of neutron stars $Λ\sim R_s^{2}$ with $R_s (\sim 10^{-22} H_0^{-1})$ being the typical radius of these stars. The large values of $Λ$ necessary for the attractor mechanism (i) suppress spontaneous scalarization altogether inside neutron stars and (ii) induce ghost instabilities on scalar field fluctuations, thus preventing a resolution of the tension. We argue that the problem arises because our disformal coupling involves a dimensionful parameter.

description: Recommender systems have become an essential tool to help resolve the information overload problem in recent decades. Traditional recommender systems, however, suffer from data sparsity and cold start problems. To address these issues, a great number of recommendation algorithms have been proposed to leverage side information of users or items (e.g., social network and item category), demonstrating a high degree of effectiveness in improving recommendation performance. This Research Commentary aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic survey of the recent research on recommender systems with side information. Specifically, we provide an overview of state-of-the-art recommendation algorithms with side information from two orthogonal perspectives. One involves the different methodologies of recommendation: the memory-based methods, latent factor, representation learning, and deep learning models. The others cover different representations of side information, including structural data (flat, network, and hierarchical features, and knowledge graphs); and non-structural data (text, image and video features). Finally, we discuss challenges and provide new potential directions in recommendation, along with the conclusion of this survey.

description: This work investigates the integration of generative visual aids in human-robot task communication. We developed GenComUI, a system powered by large language models that dynamically generates contextual visual aids (such as map annotations, path indicators, and animations) to support verbal task communication and facilitate the generation of customized task programs for the robot. This system was informed by a formative study that examined how humans use external visual tools to assist verbal communication in spatial tasks. To evaluate its effectiveness, we conducted a user experiment (n = 20) comparing GenComUI with a voice-only baseline. The results demonstrate that generative visual aids, through both qualitative and quantitative analysis, enhance verbal task communication by providing continuous visual feedback, thus promoting natural and effective human-robot communication. Additionally, the study offers a set of design implications, emphasizing how dynamically generated visual aids can serve as an effective communication medium in human-robot interaction. These findings underscore the potential of generative visual aids to inform the design of more intuitive and effective human-robot communication, particularly for complex communication scenarios in human-robot interaction and LLM-based end-user development.

We find new asymptotic behaviours on approach to the singularity and classify the critical points of the dynamical phase space. It is known that the Einstein equations for the magnetic Bianchi type I models are in general oscillatory and are believed to be chaotic, but in the brane-world model this chaotic behaviour does not seem to be possible.

description: Prolonged drought and floods as a result of climate change are a serious problem for households at Mpolonjeni ADP because their livelihood is mainly rainfedfarming. This is evident as there is high level of food insecurity, crop failure, poverty and hunger, which has forced many households to abandon farming and survive by food aid. The study was a descriptive survey aimed to identify private adaptation strategies to climate change and conduct a cost benefit analysis for the identified adaptation strategies. A stratified random samplingtechnique was used to select 350 households. Personal interviews were conducted using structured questionnaires. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and cost benefit analysis where net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) were used as decision rules. Adaptation strategies used were; drought resistant varieties, switching crops, irrigation, crop rotation, mulching, minimum tillage, early planting, late planting and intercropping. Switching crops had the highest NPV, where maize (E14.40) should be substituted with drought tolerant crops such as cotton (E1864.40), sorghum (E283.30) and dry beans (E292.20). The study recommends that households should grow drought tolerant crops such as cotton, sorghum and dry beans instead of maize. The government should provide irrigation infrastructure, such as dams, strengthen extension services and subsidise farm inputs in order to improve crop production.

description: The HII regions Sh 217 and Sh 219 are textbook examples of a Stromgren sphere surrounded by an annular photodissociation region (PDR). The annular PDR is observed in both the 21 cm atomic hydrogen emission and the dust (PAH) emission near 8 micron (MSX Survey). An ultracompact radio continuum source is observed in the direction of the annular PDR, in both Sh 217 and Sh 219. JHKobservations show the presence of highly reddened stellar clusters (AV ~ 20 mag) in the directions of these radio sources. These clusters are also IRAS sources, of luminosities 22700 Lo for Sh 217 and 5900 Lo for Sh 219. Each cluster contains at least one luminous star with an IR colour excess; the one in the Sh 219 cluster shows H-alpha emission. The cluster associated with Sh 217 is almost spherical and contains luminous objects at its centre. The cluster associated with Sh 219 is elongated along the ionization front of this HII region. We argue that these are `second-generation clusters', which means that the physical conditions present in the PDRs, close to the ionization fronts, have favoured the formation of clusters containing massive objects. We discuss the physical mechanisms which may be at the origin of the observed triggered star formation.

description: In this article, we shall focus on the collective dynamics of the fermions in a $ν= 1$ quantum Hall droplet. Specifically, we propose to look at the quantum Hall ferromagnet. In this system, the electron spins are ordered in the ground state due to the exchange part of the Coulomb interaction and the Pauli exclusion principle. The low energy excitations are ferromagnetic magnons. In order to obtain an effective Lagrangian for these magnons, we shall introduce bosonic collective coordinates in the Hilbert space of many-fermion systems. These collective coordinates describe a part of the fermionic Hilbert space. Using this technique, we shall interpret the magnons as bosonic collective excitations in the Hilbert space of the many-electron Hall system. Furthermore, by considering a Hall droplet of finite extent, we shall also obtain the effective Lagrangian governing the spin collective excitations at the edge of the sample.

description: Eta-eta' mixing is discussed in the quark-flavor basis with the hypothesis that the decay constants follow the pattern of particle state mixing. On exploiting the divergences of the axial vector currents - which embody the axial vector anomaly - all mixing parameters are fixed to first order of flavor symmetry breaking. An alternative set of parameters is obtained from a phenomenological analysis. We also discuss mixing in the octet-singlet basis and show how the relevant mixing parameters are related to those in the quark-flavor basis. The dependence of the mixing parameters on the strength of the anomaly and the amount of flavor symmetry breaking is investigated. Finally, we present a few applications of the quark-flavor mixing scheme, such as radiative decays of vector mesons, the photon-pseudoscalar meson transition form factors, the coupling constants of eta and eta' to nucleons, and the isospin-singlet admixtures to the pi^0 meson.

description: Many standards constitute shea butter trading conditions, but the exploitation of this greasy product is submitted to other industrial exigencies. The aim of this study was to characterize and evaluate the utilization potentiality of the artisanal shea butter produced in Côte d’Ivoire, on the basis of the industrials exigencies. Hence, both beige and yellow artisanal (original and market) shea butters were collected and analyzed. The refractive indexes (1.46 ± 0.00) did not vary while specific gravity at 40 °C (0.86 ± 0.00 - 0.92 ± 0.00), unsaponifiable matter (1.80 ± 0.01 - 3.76 ± 0.02%) and pH values (5.39 - 6.69) showed significant differences from a sample to another. The viscosity was very high at 40 °C (86.78 ± 0.89 - 130.10 ± 0.26 mPas) and decreased with the temperature increasing (40 to 65 °C). The UV-Vis spectrum showed a very weak absorption from 300 to 400 nm (UV-B and UV-A domains) while the near infra-red (NIR) one, revealed peaks at 450 and 700 nm for yellow shea butters only and peaks at 1200, 1400, 1725 and 2150 nm for all the samples. The fatty acids profile highlighted four main fatty acids (palmitic, stearic, oleic and linoleic acids); saturated fatty acids (56.00 ± 0.20 - 63.00 ± 0.20%) were the most important. All these interesting characteristics should arouse attention for using traditional shea butters in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.

description: The problem of the origin of cosmic rays in the shocks produced by supernova explosions at energies below the so called 'knee' (at ~3*10$^6$ GeV) in the energy spectrum is addressed, with special attention to the propagation of the particles through the inhomogenious interstellar medium and the need to explain recent anisotropy results, [1]. It is shown that the fractal character of the matter density and magnetic field distribution leads to the likelihood of a substantial increase of spatial fluctuations in the cosmic ray energy spectra. While the spatial distribution of cosmic rays in the vicinity of their sources (eg. inside the Galactic disk) does not depend much on the character of propagation and is largely determined by the distribution of their sources, the distribution at large distances from the Galactic disk depends strongly on the character of the propagation. In particular, the fractal character of the ISM leads to what is known as 'anomalous diffusion' and such diffusion helps us to understand the formation of Cosmic Ray Halo. Anomalous diffusion allows an explanation of the recent important result from the Chacaltaya extensive air shower experiment [1], viz. a Galactic Plane Enhancement of cosmic ray intensity in the Outer Galaxy, which is otherwise absent for the case of the so-called 'normal' diffusion. All these effects are for just one reason: anomalous diffusion emphasizes the role of local phenomena in the formation of cosmic ray characteristics in our Galaxy and elsewhere.

description: The regular subgroup determining an induced Hopf Galois structure for a Galois extension $L/K$ is obtained as the direct product of the corresponding regular groups of the inducing subextensions. We describe here the associated Hopf algebra and Hopf action of an induced structure and we prove that they are obtained by tensoring the corresponding inducing objects. In order to deal with their associated orders we develop a general method to compute bases and free generators in terms of matrices coming from representation theory of Hopf modules. In the case of an induced Hopf Galois structure it allows us to decompose the associated order, assuming that inducing subextensions are arithmetically disjoint.

description: Background: Ion therapy, especially with modern scanning beam delivery, offers very sharp dose gradients for highly conformal cancer treatment. However, it is very sensitive to uncertainties of tissue stopping properties as well as to anatomical changes and setup errors, making range verification highly desirable. To this end, positron emission tomography (PET) can be used to measure decay products of β+-emitters created in interactions inside the patient. This work investigates the sensitivity of post treatment PET/CT (computed tomography) to detect inter-fractional range variations. Material and methods: Fourteen patients of different indication underwent PET/CT monitoring after selected treatment fractions with scanned proton or carbon ion beams. In addition to PET/CT measurements, PET and dose distributions were simulated on different co-registered CT data. Pairs of PET data were then analyzed in terms of longitudinal shifts along the beam path, as surrogate of inter-fractional range deviations. These findings were compared to changes of dose-volume-histogram indexes and corresponding dose as well as CT shifts to disentangle the origin of possible PET shifts. Results: Biological washout modeling (PET simulations) and low (<55 Bq/ml) activity concentrations (offline PET measurements, especially for 12C ions) were the main limitations for clinical treatment verification. For two selected cases, the benefit of improved washout modeling based on organ segmentation could be demonstrated. Overall, inter-fractional range shifts up to ±3 mm could be deduced from both PET measurements and simulations, and found well correlated (typically within 1.8 mm) to anatomical changes derived from CT scans, in agreement with dose data. Conclusions: Despite known limitations of post treatment PET/CT imaging, this work indicates its potential for assessing inter-fractional changes and points to future developments for improved PET-based treatment verification.

description: Traditional machine learning assumes that training and test sets are derived from the same distribution; however, this assumption does not always hold in practical applications. This distribution disparity can lead to severe performance drops when the trained model is used in new data sets. Domain adaptation (DA) is a machine learning technique that aims to address this problem by reducing the differences between domains. This paper presents simulation-based algorithms of recent DA techniques, mainly related to unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA), where labels are available only in the source domain. Our study compares these techniques with public data sets and diverse characteristics, highlighting their respective strengths and drawbacks. For example, Safe Self-Refinement for Transformer-based DA (SSRT) achieved the highest accuracy (91.6\%) in the office-31 data set during our simulations, however, the accuracy dropped to 72.4\% in the Office-Home data set when using limited batch sizes. In addition to improving the reader's comprehension of recent techniques in DA, our study also highlights challenges and upcoming directions for research in this domain.

description: Vegetables are among the major staple foods in Southern Nigeria. This study assessed the efficiency profiles of vegetable producers in Akwa Ibom State, Southern Nigeria with specific focus on farm level technical efficiency. One hundred and twenty (120) vegetable producers were randomly selected from three agricultural zones in the State. The Maximum Likelihood Estimates (MLEs) indicate positive relationships between input variables used by farmers and farm outputs. The Generalized Likelihood Ratio test confirms that vegetable producers in the area are relatively technically inefficient. The technical efficiency of the farmers ranged from 48 to 99 percent with a mean of 70 percent. The implication is that there is allowance to improve efficiency with available resource.There is, therefore, the need for policies to promote the availability of affordable farm inputs and technology to help improve farmers’ efficiency and increase vegetable production in the area. Extension services would also help provide useful information to the farmers on farm practices that would enhance output and ensure environmental sustainability of the production process by maintaining the quality of some critical environmental factors especially soil quality.

description: From a particularly simple solution of the Ernst equation, we build a solution of the vacuum stationary axisymmetric Einstein equations depending on three parameters. The parameters are associated to the total mass of the source and its angular momentum. The third parameter produces a topological deformation of the ergosphere making it a two-sheet surface, and for some of its values forbids the Penrose process.

description: We study a supersymmetric, rotating, electrically charged black hole in AdS$_{4}$ which is a solution of four-dimensional minimal gauged supergravity. Using holography we show that the free energy on $S^3$ and the superconformal index of the dual three-dimensional $\mathcal N=2$ SCFT, in the planar limit, are related in a simple universal way. This result applies to large classes of SCFTs constructed from branes in string and M-theory which we discuss in some detail. For theories of class $\mathcal R$, which arise from $N$ M5-branes wrapped on hyperbolic three-manifolds, we show that the superconformal index agrees with the black hole entropy in the large $N$ limit.

description: The present study aimed to determine optimum values of the process factors to obtain a standard method of preparation with best quality of dockounou. Several samples of dockounou were prepared with different proportions (75 to 95%) of senescent plantain, cooking time, fermentation time and temperature of oven. Sensorial characteristics of the samples were investigated. Optimal values (scores) of both boiled and baked dockounou prepared with maize or rice flour were identified through tasters’ evaluation. Hence, the best scores were recorded with 90 and 85% of plantain paste proportion, respectively with maize and rice flours. Concerning cooking time, optimal values were registered at 60 minutes with maize-dockounou, and at 75 minutes with rice-dockounou flour. About fermentation time, the best sensorial characteristics were obtained at 4 hours for rice or maize-dockounou, but at 0 hours for the boiled rice one. Results revealed moreover that 160 °C would be the optimal baking temperature. The optimized maize-dockounou would be better than the rice one on sensorial basis. Optimized maize-dockounou uses a larger quantity of plantain paste than optimized rice dockounou. This optimized dockounou uses shorter fermentation time than the traditional one. In general, the optimized dockounou is better than the traditional. It presents better characteristics and is more appreciated. Thus, optimized-dockounou is a real opportunity to convert rejected senescent plantains into foodstuff to help to feed the populations. That could be a way of food security.
Initial conditions for electron and photon structure and fragmentation functions

description: In the computation of short-distance cross sections initiated by electrons and photons one can adopt the so-called structure-function approach, in which these particles play formally the same roles as hadrons do in QCD factorisation theorems, and must thus be associated with PDFs (equivalently known as structure functions in this context). At variance with their QCD counterparts, such PDFs are entirely calculable in QED. In this paper we present the results, at the next-to-leading order in the QED coupling constant $α$, for the initial conditions of the unpolarised electron and photon PDFs, which are a necessary ingredient for their eventual collinear evolution at the next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. We also compute the analogous final-state quantities, namely the initial conditions for fragmentation functions into electrons and photons.
