description: We study the decoherence of a spin in a quantum dot due to its hyperfine coupling to a randomly fluctuating bath of nuclear spins. The system is modelled by the central spin model with the spin bath initially being at infinite temperature. We calculate the spectrum and time evolution of the coherence factor using a Monte Carlo sampling of the exact eigenstates obtained via the algebraic Bethe ansatz. The exactness of the obtained eigenstates allows us to study the non-perturbative regime of weak magnetic fields in a full quantum mechanical treatment. In particular, we find a large non-decaying fraction in the zero-field limit. The crossover from strong to weak fields is similar to the decoherence starting from a pure initial bath state treated previously. We compare our results to a simple semiclassical picture [Merkulov et al., Phys. Rev. B 65, 205309 (2002)] and find surprisingly good agreement. Finally, we discuss the effect of weakly coupled spins and show that they will eventually lead to complete decoherence.

Die Arbeitszeiten von Männern und Frauen unterscheiden sich im EU-Vergleich weiterhin deutlich. Besonders ausgeprägt sind die Unterschiede in den Niederlanden, Großbritannien und Irland, aber auch in Deutschland liegen sie deutlich über dem EU-Durchschnitt.

Arbeitszeiten und Beschäftigungsquote von Frauen zeigen einen negativen Zusammenhang. EU-weit gilt: je höher die Beschäftigungsquote von Frauen, desto niedriger die wöchentlichen Arbeitszeiten.

Kritischer Faktor für die weibliche Erwerbstätigkeit ist weiterhin Mutterschaft und Kinderbetreuung.

Eine deutliche Mehrheit der abhängig Beschäftigten in der EU gibt an, dass berufliche und private Verpflichtungen gut oder sehr gut zusammenpassen. Dabei sind Männer im Durchschnitt unzufriedener mit ihrer Work-Life-Balance als Frauen.

Positive Effekte auf die Work-Life-Balance haben sowohl flexible Arbeitszeiten mit Zeitautonomie als auch regelmäßige und vorhersehbare Arbeitszeiten. Negativ auf die Work-Life-Balance wirken sich dagegen atypische Arbeitszeiten sowie das Vorhandensein von Kindern aus.

description: We show that gels formed by arrested spinodal decomposition of protein solutions exhibit elastic properties in two distinct frequency domains, both elastic moduli exhibiting a remarkably strong dependence on volume fraction. Considering the large difference between the protein size and the characteristic length of the network we model the gels as porous media and show that the high and low frequency elastic moduli can be respectively attributed to stretching and bending modes. The unexpected decoupling of the two modes in the frequency domain is attributed to the length scale involved: while stretching mainly relates to the relative displacement of two particles, bending involves the deformation of a strand with a thickness of the order of a thousand particle diameters.

description: This paper presents a novel adaptive reduced-rank multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) decision feedback equalization structure based on joint iterative optimization of adaptive estimators. The novel reduced-rank equalization structure consists of a joint iterative optimization of two equalization stages, namely, a projection matrix that performs dimensionality reduction and a reduced-rank estimator that retrieves the desired transmitted symbol. The proposed reduced-rank structure is followed by a decision feedback scheme that is responsible for cancelling the inter-antenna interference caused by the associated data streams. We describe least squares (LS) expressions for the design of the projection matrix and the reduced-rank estimator along with computationally efficient recursive least squares (RLS) adaptive estimation algorithms. Simulations for a MIMO equalization application show that the proposed scheme outperforms the state-of-the-art reduced-rank and the conventional estimation algorithms at about the same complexity.

description: We made CO(1-0) observations of 103 lines of sight in the core and envelope of the high-latitude cloud MBM 40 to determine how the CO-H_2 conversion factor (X_CO) varies throughout the cloud. Calibrating X_CO with CH data at similar resolution (1' for CO, 1.5' for CH) yields values of X_CO ranging from 0.6 10^20 to 3.3 10^20 cm^-2 [K km s^-1]^-1 with an average of 1.3 10^20 cm^-2 [K km s^-1]^-1. Given that the cloud has a peak reddening of 0.24 mag, it should be classed as a diffuse rather than a translucent molecular cloud. The mass obtained from the CO data and our values of X_CO is 9.6 M(solar) for the core, 12 M(solar) for the envelope, and 10 M(solar) for the periphery of the cloud. A third of the molecular mass of the cloud is found in a region with E(B-V) < 0.12 mag. With these mass estimates, we determine that the cloud is not gravitationally bound.

description: I give some scalar field theory calculations on a d-dimensional lune of arbitrary angle, evaluating, numerically, the effective action which is expressed as a simple quadrature, for conformal coupling. Using this, the entanglement and Renyi entropies are computed. Massive fields are also considered and a renormalisation to make the (one-loop) effective action vanish for infinite mass is suggested and used, not entirely successfully. However a universal coefficient is derived from the large mass expansion. From the deformation of the corresponding lune result, I conjecture that the effective action on all manifolds with a simple conical singularity has an extremum when the singularity disappears. For the round sphere, I show how to convert the quadrature form of the conformal Laplacian determinant into the more usual sum of Riemann zeta functions (and log2).

description: This study will investigate the effect of wearing masks on cognitive performance, using a large dataset of tournament chess games played before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Causality will be established both through the exogeneity of the treatment and through multiple robustness analyses (including fixed-effects and difference-in-difference analyses) that control for self-selection, time trends, and potential confounding variables.

The use of face masks has become one of the key policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of February 2022, 174 out of 186 countries required the wearing of facial coverings in some or all shared or public spaces, with a further 9 countries recommending their use. Despite the ubiquity of mask-wearing policies in classrooms and offices around the world, almost nothing is known about their effects on cognitive performance. This is the first study that reports these effects.

description: Interacting galaxies favor the formation of star clusters but are also suspected to affect their evolution through an intense and rapidly varying tidal field. Treating this complex behaviour remains out-of-reach of (semi-)analytical studies. By computing the tidal field from galactic models and including it into star-by-star N-body simulations of star clusters, we monitor the structure and mass evolution of a population of clusters in a galaxy major merger, taking the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038/39) as a prototype. On the long timescale (~ 10^9 yr), the merger only indirectly affects the evolution of clusters by modifying their orbits in or around the galaxies: the mass-loss of clusters in the merger remnant is faster, while clusters ejected in the tidal debris survive much longer, compared to in an isolated galaxy. The tidal perturbations of the galactic collisions themselves are too short lived and not strong enough to significantly influence the structure and dissolution of realistically dense/massive star clusters.

description: We have synthesized polycrystalline and single crystal samples of PbCu3TeO7 and studied its properties via magnetic susceptibility chi(T) and heat-capacity Cp(T) measurements and also electronic structure calculations. Whereas the crystal structure is suggestive of the presence of a quasi-2D network of Cu2+ (S = 1/2) buckled staircase Kagome layers, the chi(T) data show magnetic anisotropy and three magnetic anomalies at temperatures, TN1 ~ 36 K, TN2 ~ 25 K, TN3 ~ 17 K, respectively. The chi(T) data follow the Curie-Weiss law above 200 K and a Curie-Weiss temperature Theta_CW ~ -150 K is obtained. The data deviate from the simple Curie-Weiss law below 200 K, which is well above TN1, suggesting the presence of competing magnetic interactions. The magnetic anomaly at TN3 appears to be of first-order from magnetization measurements, although our heat-capacity Cp(T) results do not display any anomaly at TN3. The hopping integrals obtained from our electronic structure calculations suggest the presence of significant intra-Kagome (next-nearest neighbor and diagonal) and inter-Kagome couplings. These couplings take the PbCu3TeO7 system away from a disordered ground state and lead to long-range order, in contrast to what might be expected for an ideal (isotropic) 2D Kagome system.

description: We investigate rare semileptonic \bar B -> \bar K^* l^+ l^- decays, providing a comprehensive treatment of theoretical uncertainties in the low-q^2 region as needed for interpreting current and future LHCb and B-factory data in terms of the new physics search. We go beyond the usual focus on form-factor uncertainties, paying proper attention to non-factorizable terms. A central point is the systematic exploitation of the V-A structure of SM weak interactions, which leads to the suppression of two helicity amplitudes and some of the angular coefficients. We review how this works at the level of (helicity) form factors, and show that the hierarchies extend to non-factorizable terms. For virtual charm effects, we give an argument for it in terms of light-cone QCD sum rules that continues to hold at the level of "long-distance" Lambda_QCD^2/m_c^2 power corrections, reducing an important source of theoretical uncertainty in any \bar B, \bar B_s -> V l^+ l^- (or \bar B -> V gamma) decay. The contributions of the remaining hadronic weak Hamiltonian respect a similar hierarchy. We employ a resonance model to preclude (in the \bar B -> \bar K^* case) large long-distance corrections to this. A phenomenological part pays particular attention to the region of lowest dilepton mass, 4 m_l^2 <= q^2 <= 2 GeV^2. Two observables remain theoretically clean, implying a (theoretical) sensitivity to the real (imaginary) part of the "right-handed" Wilson coefficient C_7' to 10% (1%) of C_7^SM, both in the muonic and the electronic mode. We also show that there are two near-exact relations between angular coefficients, even in the presence of new physics and when lepton masses are not neglected.

description: We consider the finite temperature Casimir stress acting on the boundary of a D>=3 dimensional cavity due to the vacuum fluctuations of electromagnetic fields. Both perfectly conducting and infinitely permeable boundary conditions are considered, and it is proved that they correspond mathematically to the relative and absolute boundary conditions. The divergence terms of the Casimir free energy are related to the heat kernel coefficients of the Laplace operator. It is shown that the Casimir stress is free of divergence if and only if D is exactly three. The high temperature asymptotics of the regularized Casimir free energy are also found to depend on the heat kernel coefficients. When D>3, renormalization is required to remove terms of order higher than or equal to T^2.

Understanding the dynamics of online misogyny
Creators: name: Dutta, Aditi
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Is social media safe and equal for people of all genders? How many of us feel comfortable sharing our opinions online? Social media like Twitter is often the platform for online misogyny. Even though they promote free speech- instead of strengthening women's voices, the violence and abuse many women experience on the platforms lead women to self-censor what they post, limit their interactions, and may drive them away from there. In my research, I focus on understanding the dynamics of online misogyny and how posting strong opinions online might trigger differential behavior for women, as compared to their male (/other genders) counterparts. To what extent are influential women who express their political opinion through social media platforms, targeted by online incivility? Is it worse if it is on a controversial or a less popular opinion? What types of online speech trigger online misogyny? Is that prompted by any external event(/s), political or otherwise? Is this more/less problematic for women in the Global South? Analyzing the social media metadata could help us draw inferences about the extent of online misogyny and more. Not only will it help us answer these questions, but also discover connections prompting the abuse online. A challenge while doing that is having a clear understanding on what accounts as public and private in the accessible data, which is often contested depending on the research, hence it inevitably falls within the area of tension of research ethics. Hence, one of the key tasks I will be performing is using appropriate metadata to describe my data following the DDI standards, to make it adhere to the FAIR data management principles. Through my work, I aim to create a safer digital space for women, and to ensure that they can freely share their views in digital space.

description: We assess the detectability of the gravitational wave signals from highly eccentric compact binaries. We use a simple model for the inspiral, merger, and ringdown of these systems. The model is based on mapping the binary to an effective single black hole system described by a Kerr metric, thereby including certain relativistic effects such as zoom-whirl-type behavior. The resultant geodesics source quadrupolar radiation and, in turn, are evolved under its dissipative effects. At the light ring, we attach a merger model that was previously developed for quasicircular mergers but also performs well for eccentric mergers with little modification. We apply this model to determine the detectability of these sources for initial, Enhanced, and Advanced LIGO across the parameter space of nonspinning close capture compact binaries. We conclude that, should these systems exist in nature, the vast majority will be missed by conventional burst searches or by quasicircular waveform templates in the advanced detector era. Other methods, such as eccentric templates or, more practically, a stacked excess power search, must be developed to avoid losing these sources. These systems would also have been missed frequently in the initial LIGO data analysis. Thus, previous null coincidence results with detected gamma-ray bursts cannot exclude the possibility of coincident gravitational wave signals from eccentric binaries.

Nonequilibrium features in the AQD energy absorption spectrum are the side peaks that develop as an effect of photon absorption and emission. We show that atoms can be efficiently transferred from the BEC into the AQD for the parameter regime of current experiments with cold atoms.

description: The U.S. Repository Network is an initiative of SPARC with support from the Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR). In its “Modernizing the Global Repository Network Initiative,” COAR identified the need for assistance in breaking down institutional silos and developing a more cohesive approach and greater collaboration around repositories in the U.S. Through a Visiting Program Officer, SPARC engaged an expert group of library/repository professionals as well as the broader U.S. repository community to develop a strategic vision for U.S. repositories. The strategic vision is “an interoperable network of repositories is an essential component of our national research infrastructure, offering rapid and open access to research, and plays a crucial role in collective efforts to transform global research communications, leading to a more open, inclusive, and equitable system.” This strategic vision and its complimentary foundational characteristics guide the U.S. Repository Network (USRN) Action Plan, which is structured to advance the vision and to ensure the ongoing engagement and sustainability of the network. The presenter will briefly describe the vision development process, review the strategic vision itself, and discuss the current status of the action plan. The USRN is intended to be inclusive of all U.S. repositories, and the presenter will also discuss potential avenues for future engagement.

description: Given a 2-stranded tangle in a $\ZZ/2$ homology ball, $T\subset Y$, we investigate the character variety $R(Y,T)$ of conjugacy classes of traceless SU(2) representations of $π_1(Y\setminus T)$. In particular we completely determine the subspace of binary dihedral representations, and identify all of $R(Y,T)$ for many tangles naturally associated to knots in S^3. Moreover, we determine the image of the restriction map from $R(T,Y)$ to the traceless SU(2) character variety of the 4-punctured 2-sphere (the {\it pillowcase}). We give examples to show this image can be non-linear in general, and show it is linear for tangles associated to pretzel knots.

description: Let $T_1$ and $T_2$ be homogeneous trees of even degree $\ge 4$. A BM group $Γ$ is a torsion free discrete subgroup of $\aut (T_1) \times \aut (T_2)$ which acts freely and transitively on the vertex set of $T_1 \times T_2$. This article studies dynamical systems associated with BM groups. A higher rank Cuntz-Krieger algebra $\mathcal A(\G)$ is associated both with a 2-dimensional tiling system and with a boundary action of a BM group $Γ$. An explicit expression is given for the K-theory of $\mathcal A(\G)$. In particular $K_0=K_1$. A complete enumeration of possible BM groups $\G$ is given for a product homogeneous trees of degree 4, and the K-groups are computed.
Can the supermassive objects at the centers of galaxies be traversable wormholes? The first test of strong gravity for mm/sub-mm VLBI facilities

description: The near future mm/sub-mm VLBI experiments are ambitious projects aiming at imaging the "shadow" of the supermassive black hole candidate at the center of the Milky Way and of the ones in nearby galaxies. An accurate observation of the shape of the shadow can potentially test the nature of these objects and verify if they are Kerr black holes, as predicted by general relativity. However, previous work on the subject has shown that the shadows produced in other spacetimes are very similar to the one of the Kerr background, suggesting that tests of strong gravity are not really possible with these facilities in the near future. In this work, I instead point out that it will be relatively easy to distinguish black holes from wormholes, topologically non-trivial structures of the spacetime that might have been formed in the early Universe and might connect our Universe with other universes.

description: We present a geometric scalar theory of gravity. Our proposal will be described using the "background field method" introduced by Gupta, Feynman and others as a field theory formulation of general relativity. We analyze previous criticisms against scalar gravity and show how the present proposal avoids these difficulties. This concerns not only the theoretical complaints but also those related to observations. In particular, we show that the widespread belief of the conjecture that the source of scalar gravity must be the trace of the energy-momentum tensor - which is one of the main difficulties to couple gravity with electromagnetic phenomenon in previous models - does not apply to our geometric scalar theory. Some consequences of the new scalar theory are explored.

Roles of icosahedral and crystal-like order in hard spheres glass transition

description: A link between structural ordering and slow dynamics has recently attracted much attention from the context of the origin of glassy slow dynamics. Candidates for such structural order are icosahedral, exotic amorphous, and crystal-like. Each type of order is linked to a different scenario of glass transition. Here we experimentally access local structural order in polydisperse hard spheres by particle-level confocal microscopy. We identify the key structures as icosahedral and FCC-like order, both statistically associated with slow particles. However, when approaching the glass transition, the icosahedral order does not grow in size whereas crystal-like order grows. It is the latter that governs the dynamics and is linked to dynamic heterogeneity. This questions the direct role of the local icosahedral ordering in glassy slow dynamics and suggests that the growing lengthscale of structural order is essential for the slowing down of dynamics and the nonlocal cooperativity in particle motion.
High trophic niche overlap within the aquatic carnivore guild in vernal ponds

description: The underlying mechanisms shaping niche size and overlap within and between species are crucial for understanding species coexistence and community assembly. The hunting strategy of and the competition between predators shape their diets, but many species can adjust their niches via trophic or microhabitat differentiation to minimize foraging competition with co-occurring species. Niches can also change in response to environmental factors such as nutrient enrichment, which can affect the diversity and abundance of prey resources to consumers. Here we tested for trophic niche partitioning and niche specialization within an invertebrate carnivore guild. To do this, we sampled populations of arachnids and odonates, dominant riparian carnivores, in vernal ponds across a nutrient gradient in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. We used stable isotope analysis of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) to obtain time- and space-integrated information on trophic niches of these populations. Our results showed variation in the trophic niche size of arachnids and odonates, however, our findings revealed a lack of niche differentiation between populations of arachnids and odonates within and across ponds. Additionally, neither nutrient enrichment, nor prey abundance or diversity were good predictors of niche width of these predators. Our results suggest that these co-occurring predators can coexist with minimal trophic niche overlap. As changes in climate shift species distributions and alter community assemblages, it is important to be able to predict how species will respond to overlaps in their distributions.
Constraining new physics in B_s meson mixing

description: Neutral mesons exhibit a phenomenon called flavour mixing. As a consequence of a second order weak process the flavour eigenstates corresponding to the meson and its anti-meson are superpositions of two mass eigenstates. A meson produced in a flavour state changes into an anti-meson and back again as a function of time. Such flavour oscillations are considered sensitive probes of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this brief review I summarize the status of experimental constraints on mixing parameters in the B_s meson system.

description: We perform a study of $^{16}$O+$^{16}$O fusion at above and below the interaction barrier energies using three-dimensional time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) calculations at above barrier energies and density-constrained TDHF calculations for the entire energy range. We discuss the variations of the experimental data at above the barrier energies. Calculations reasonably reproduce the observed energy-dependent broad oscillations in the fusion excitation functions. These oscillations result from overcoming $L$-dependent fusion barriers. The role of the coupling to low-lying octupole states is also discussed.

description: Opportunities for girls to participate in sports are growing by the minute. However, adolescent girls are dropping out from participating in athletics with many possible explanations. One explanation is the limited and sometimes controversial media attention female athletes receive. How are girls to know there is a sporting world out there for them if they are unable to see positive female athletic role models to emulate?

This study investigated ESPN.com to discover the trends of college basketball reporting during the 2007 NCAA Men's and Women's basketball tournaments. A content analysis was performed on ESPN .com to see if the media attention was equal for female athletes and coaches compared to male athletes and coaches. Results showed that equality does not exist on ESPN.com's main webpage; however, equality does exist when comparing the sport specific individual webpages.

description: As the Chinese American Librarians Association (CALA)’s Institutional Repository, CALASYS hosts scholarly works and educational materials from its members and library professionals in the Library and Information Science field, and it also archives CALA’s official documents, conference materials, and Chinese cultural heritage collections. Currently, over 600 items have been added to CALASYS’ open and private collections. In celebration of the CALA’s 50th Anniversary, the CALA 50th Celebration Taskforce and the CALASYS Committee created a collection grant which aimed to preserve the history of CALA, Chinese American librarians, and the Chinese American community, encourage CALA members’ participation in CALASYS and enrich its collections. Three proposed collections have been awarded or recognized including CALA: A Path to the Future Library Leaders, CALA/YALSA Chinese American Reading List and Ming Qing Women's Poetry Collection. Open trainings have been designed and delivered to the grant participants and efforts have been made to collect data and build data models for deposit of these collections. This presentation will address the Omeka-based CALASYS system, its scope and collection policy, content and collections especially the awarded collections, the self-contribution and mediated contribution workflows and share some metadata and record examples. By opening CALASYS to all, the CALA President and officers hope that each contributing individual, committee, and chapter will be able to deposit works and documents and become the manager of their own collections after going through additional training. CALASYS will thus continue to grow at a faster pace and in a more inclusive direction in promoting diverse scholarships and research as well as association history.

description: We look for evidence for the evolution in dark energy density by employing Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Distance redshift data from supernovae and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) along with WMAP7 distance priors are used to put constraints on curvature parameter Omega_k and dark energy parameters. The data sets are consistent with a flat Universe. The constraints on the dark energy evolution parameters obtained from supernovae (including CMB distance priors) are consistent with a flat Lambda-CDM Universe. On the other hand, in the parameter estimates obtained from the addition of BAO data the second principal component, which characterize a non-constant contribution from dark energy, is non-zero at 1-sigma. This could be a systematic effect and future BAO data holds key to making more robust claims.
