description: By assuming that the Kehagias-Sfetsos black hole is an exact solution of the standard Einstein equations, we investigate the properties of its source that generates the curvature. The anisotropic fluid has $p_{r} = - ρ$ as equation of state and fulfills the WEC and NEC. The gravitational field is repulsive inside the horizon and attractive outside, becoming of Schwarzschild type at large distances. The Misner-Sharp energy equals the black hole mass asymptotically.

description: The geometry of multiparameter families of quantum states is important in numerous contexts, including adiabatic or nonadiabatic quantum dynamics, quantum quenches, and the characterization of quantum critical points. Here, we discuss the Hilbert space geometry of eigenstates of parameter-dependent random matrix ensembles, deriving the full probability distribution of the quantum geometric tensor for the Gaussian unitary ensemble. Our analytical results give the exact joint distribution function of the Fubini-Study metric and the Berry curvature. We discuss relations to Levy stable distributions and compare our results to numerical simulations of random matrix ensembles as well as electrons in a random magnetic field.

description: Modern x-ray light sources promise access to structure and dynamics of matter in largely unexplored spectral regions. However, the desired information is encoded in the light intensity and phase, whereas detectors register only the intensity. This phase problem is ubiquitous in crystallography and imaging, and impedes the exploration of quantum effects at x-ray energies. Here, we demonstrate phase-sensitive measurements characterizing the quantum state of a nuclear two-level system at hard x-ray energies. The nuclei are initially prepared in a superposition state. Subsequently, the relative phase of this superposition is interferometrically reconstructed from the emitted x-rays. Our results form a first step towards x-ray quantum state tomography, and provide new avenues for structure determination and precision metrology via x-ray Fano interference.

description: Disagreement over necessary reforms for the Eurozone is rooted in fundamentally different economic paradigms, which shaped the founding phase of today’s Monetary Union. One camp argues for the Monetary Union to be a stability union based on principles of internal and external price stability and prioritising rule-based self-regulation of free-market forces to minimise political risks. The other camp argues for the Monetary Union to be a fiscal union based on their belief in the need for transnational economic governance to extend beyond the aspect of price stability, in order to address inevitable market failures. The two visions represent diametrically opposed conceptions of a complete and functioning Monetary Union and accordingly arrive at widely diverging interpretations of the origins of the crisis and the necessary reform steps. As long as this fundamental dissent remains unaddressed, sustainable solutions to the perils of the Euro area will stay elusive.

description: We investigate the feasibility of detecting 21cm absorption features in the afterglow spectra of high redshift long Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). This is done employing simulations of cosmic reionization, together with the instrumental characteristics of the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR). We find that absorption features could be marginally (with a S/N larger than a few) detected by LOFAR at z>7 if the GRB originated from PopIII stars, while the detection would be easier if the noise were reduced by one order of magnitude, i.e. similar to what is expected for the first phase of the Square Kilometer Array (SKA1-low). On the other hand, more standard GRBs are too dim to be detected even with ten times the sensitivity of SKA1-low, and only in the most optimistic case can a S/N larger than a few be reached at z>9.

Practical acquisition and modeling of spectral reflectance and illumination
Creators: name: Gitlina, Yuliya
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: Illumination and surface reflectance are the fundamental elements of any virtual scene, which have a major effect on its overall appearance. In reality, although the human eye perceives the incoming light in the form of color, illumination and reflectance have an underlying spectral representation. Considering spectral information of the environment is essential for accurately modeling the real world optical processes, which has a significant role in computer graphics for producing qualitative results in various applications, such as lighting reproduction and spectral rendering. Spectral measurements for complex illuminants and materials are often either not publicly available or exist but are not suited for a particular case scenario. Practically obtaining accurate spectral data is a challenging topic in computer graphics due to the common trade-off between the excessive costs of the specialized equipment and the measurement accuracy. Thus, in this thesis we propose novel methods for acquiring and modeling spectral illumination and reflectance that simultaneously aim at practicality and at the quality of the recovered data. We first introduce our novel practical RGB-to-spectral upsampling method for estimating spectral power distributions of illuminants from RGB photographs, including the legacy RGB environments, without the requirement of any additional information. We then show how the spectrally upsampled RGB illumination can be employed for improved lighting reproduction using an LED sphere. We also present a novel practical method for measuring spectral skin reflectance using a controllable LED sphere and an off-the-shelf dermatological device. We demonstrate how to employ skin measurements to drive the spectral subsurface scattering model with appropriate complexity in order to match the appearance of real skin in photographs. Finally, we implement the spatially varying skin subsurface scattering in a physically-based renderer and validate our proposed measurement technique by generating 3D spectral facial renderings that are, for the first time, comparable to the photographs. The proposed methods are versatile and can potentially be adapted for the general use in spectral rendering pipelines, including real-time implementation, as well as for lighting reproduction applications employing different illumination setups.

Catalan objects in categories

description: The Catalan numbers 1, 2, 5, 14, 42, 132, . . . count all sorts of interesting objects: for example, thenth Catalan number enumerates both the set of Tn of rooted finitely branching trees with n + 1 vertices, and the set Bn of rooted binary trees with n + 1 leaves. In fact for each n, the sets Tn and Bn are in bijection in a natural way. The objective of this thesis is to study these bijections, and similar ones, through the lens of category theory. The set of rooted finitely branching trees can be characterised as an initial motor; where a motor is a monoid endowed with a endofunction (not preserving the monoid structure). The set of rooted binary trees can be characterised as an initial pointed magma; where a pointed magma is a set endowed with a constant and a binary operation. We first give an account of the bijection between rooted trees and binary trees which uses only the universal properties of the initial motor and the initial pointed magma. We then generalise this in various directions; our most general result identifies the initial T -motor with the initial pointed T -magma, when T is an arbitrary endofunctor of a closed monoidal category C ; here, a T -motor is a monoid X endowed with a mapping T X X , while a pointed T -magma is an object with a map I + TX ⊗ X X. We will also give numerous examples and applications.

description: The main goal of the present contribution is a pedagogical introduction to the fascinating world of neutron stars by relying on relativistic density functional theory. Density functional theory provides a powerful--and perhaps unique--framework for the calculation of both the properties of finite nuclei and neutron stars. Given the enormous densities that may be reached in the core of neutron stars, it is essential that such theoretical framework incorporates from the outset the basic principles of Lorentz covariance and special relativity. After a brief historical perspective, we present the necessary details required to compute the equation of state of dense, neutron-rich matter. As the equation of state is all that is needed to compute the structure of neutron stars, we discuss how nuclear physics--particularly certain kind of laboratory experiments--can provide significant constrains on the behavior of neutron-rich matter.

description: We show that correlated pair tunneling drives a phase transition to a twisted superfluid with a complex order parameter. This unconventional superfluid phase spontaneously breaks the time-reversal symmetry and is characterized by a twisting of the complex phase angle between adjacent lattice sites. We discuss the entire phase diagram of the extended Bose--Hubbard model for a honeycomb optical lattice showing a multitude of quantum phases including twisted superfluids, pair superfluids, supersolids and twisted supersolids. Furthermore, we show that the nearest-neighbor interactions lead to a spontaneous breaking of the inversion symmetry of the lattice and give rise to dimerized density-wave insulators, where particles are delocalized on dimers. For two components, we find twisted superfluid phases with strong correlations between the species already for surprisingly small pair-tunneling amplitudes. Interestingly, this ground state shows an infinite degeneracy ranging continuously from a supersolid to a twisted superfluid.

ABSTRACT: Human perceptual sensitivity of various types of forces, e.g., stiffness and friction, is important for surgeons during robotic surgeries such as needle insertion and palpation. However, force feedback from robot end-effector is usually a combination of desired and undesired force components which could have an effect on the perceptual sensitivity of the desired one. In presence of undesired forces, to improve perceptual sensitivity of desired force could benefit robotic surgical outcomes. In this paper, we investigate how users' perceptual sensitivity of friction and stiffness can be improved by taking advantage of kinematic redundancy of a user interface. Experimental results indicated that the perceptual sensitivity of both friction and stiffness can be significantly improved by maximizing the effective manipulability of the redundant user interface in its null space. The positive results provide a promising perspective to enhance surgeons' haptic perceptual ability by making use of the robot redundancy.

description: Individual atoms in optical cavities can provide an efficient interface between stationary qubits and flying qubits (photons), which is an essentiel building block for quantum communication. Furthermore, cavity assisted controlled-not (CNOT) gates can be used for swapping entanglement to long distances in a quantum repeater setup. Nonetheless, dissipation introduced by the cavity during the CNOT may increase the experimental difficulty in obtaining long-distance entanglement distribution using these systems. We analyse and compare a number of cavity-based repeater schemes combining various entanglement generation schemes and cavity assisted CNOT gates. We find that a scheme, where high-fidelity entanglement is first generated in a two-photon detection scheme and then swapped to long distances using a recently proposed heralded CZ-gate exhibits superior performance compared to the other schemes. The heralded gate moves the effect of dissipation from the fidelity to the success probability of the gate thereby enabling high-fidelity entanglement swapping. As a result, high-rate entanglement distribution can be achieved over long distances even for low cooperativities of the atom-cavity systems. This high-fidelity repeater is shown to outperform the other cavity-based schemes by up to two orders of magnitude in the rate for realistic parameters and large distances (1000 km).

description: Background Benefit finding, defined as perceiving positive life changes resulting from adversity and negative life stressors, gains growing attention in the context of chronic illness. The study aimed at examining the psychometric properties of the Benefit Finding Scale for Children (BFSC) in a sample of German youth facing chronic conditions. Methods A sample of adolescents with various chronic conditions (N = 304; 12 – 21years) completed the 10-item BFSC along with measures of intra- and interpersonal resources, coping strategies, and health-related quality of life (hrQoL). The total sample was randomly divided into two subsamples for conducting exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (EFA/CFA). Results EFA revealed that the BFSC scores had a one-dimensional factor structure. CFA verified the one-dimensional factor structure with an acceptable fit. The BFSC exhibited acceptable internal consistency (α = 0.87 – 0.88) and construct validity. In line with our hypotheses, benefit finding was positively correlated with optimism, self-esteem, self-efficacy, sense of coherence, and support seeking. There were no correlations with avoidance, wishful thinking, emotional reaction, and hrQoL. Sex differences in benefit finding were not consistent across subsamples. Benefit finding was also positively associated with age, disease severity, and social status. Conclusions The BFSC is a psychometrically sound instrument to assess benefit finding in adolescents with chronic illness and may facilitate further research on positive adaptation processes in adolescents, irrespective of their specific diagnosis.

title: Tracing client interests in the course of a project: why are some client interests incorporated whereas others are not?
Creators: name: Kurokawa, Megumi
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2015

description: There is a widespread assumption that client expectations should be accommodated during a building project. However, studies which highlight the complex nature of construction clients point out that this assumption is not easy to address. There may be conflicting interests within a client organization and these may change over time in the course of a project. This research asks why some client interests are incorporated whereas others are not into the development of a building project. Actor-Network Theory (ANT) is used to study a single building project on a University campus. The building project is analysed as a number of discussions or negotiations, in which actors persuade each other to choose one solution over another. The actors include: client organization members, architects, engineers and architectural floor plans. The issues which examined include: building location, space allocation and mechanical space size. An ANT analysis of a range of actors and issues provides a way to study client engagement without privileging client perspectives. The analysis documents changes in the types of decision-making processes at play as the range of options for any particular issues are constrained by prior decisions. More specifically, the thesis reveals the shifting power relations between clients, project team members and project documents. At the start of the project, the clients specified the range of options and chose their preferred solutions. Later on, the interdependence of issues led to a moderation of client interests; project team members persuaded clients to compromise on some of their preferences. Similarly, project documents fixed certain decisions, which shaped or limited available options for subsequent issues. In this way, clients’ ability to select their preferred options was increasingly constrained as the project developed. Clients, however, retained the power to control the timing of other participants’ involvement, and in this way, to impose their interests over others. The thesis develops the concept of “interest” in ANT analysis, and documents the way clients secure their interests in the course of the project. It concludes with practical recommendations to clients about how to be aware of their conflicting interests.

description: The purpose of this study is to identify the price transmission mechanism in livestock markets in Korea as well as the market, in the marketing hierarchy, that has played important role in price discovery. To this end, this study used a time series analysis based on contemporaneous causal relationship, while taking into account the prices of substitutes as well. It showed that the retail price in beef markets and the wholesale prices in pork markets are most important in price discovery. When a short-term impact occurs, the producer price explains most of forecast error variance in beef and the wholesale price explains most of it in pork. We expect that the result of the study would contribute to understanding price trends and forecasting livestock prices.

description: We investigate the formation of TeV spectrum of a distant blazar PKS 1424+240 residing at a redshift $z\geq0.6$ in two scenarios in the frame of a lepto-hadronic jet model taking both the uncertainties of the extragalactic background light (EBL) and its redshift into account. In the first scenario, TeV emission is attributed to the synchrotron emission of pair cascades resulting from $pγ$ interaction; in the second scenario, TeV emission is attributed to the proton-synchrotron emission, and an internal absorption due to interaction with the photons around the jet is included. The results show that in the first scenario the 68\% upper limit of its redshift within which this scenario can explain the VERITAS TeV spectrum in 2009 well is $\sim0.75$; in the second scenario, this upper limit of the redshift becomes $\sim1.03$. However, the second scenario can be excluded because it requires an unreasonable photon field around the jet with a luminosity of $\sim10^{43}\rm \ erg\ s^{-1}$. In conclusion, the jet model can explain its TeV spectrum with a low EBL density if $0.6

description: In search for the origins of the extraordinary low twinning stress of Ni-Mn-Ga magnetic shape memory alloys we studied the thermally induced changes of structure in Ni$_{50}$Mn$_{25+x}$Ga$_{25-x}$ ($x$=2.7--3.9) single crystal samples and compared them with twinning stress dependences. The alloys exhibited transformation to five-layered (10M) martensite structure between 297 to 328 K. All samples exhibited magnetic shape memory effect. Just below the transformation temperature the samples had very low twinning stress of about 0.1--0.3 MPa, which increased with decreasing temperature. The structural changes were monitored using X-ray diffraction in the temperature range 173--343 K. The 10M structure was approximated by monoclinic lattice with the unit cell derived from the cubic unit cell of the parent L2$_{1}$ phase. With decreasing temperature, the lattice parameters $a$ and $γ$ increased, $c$ decreased, while $b$ was nearly constant. For $x\leq3.5$, sudden sharp changes in $a$ and $b$ parameters additionally occurred, resulting in $a=b$ in some regions of the phase diagram, which might be related to the refinement of twin structure of 10M martensite on nanoscale. The temperature dependences of lattice parameter $γ$ (and $c$ or $c/a$) correlate well with the temperature dependences of twinning stress in agreement with the prediction by a microstructural model of twin boundary motion. On the contrary, there is no correlation between $(a-b)$ and twinning stress. This indicates no significant role of $a/b$ twins or laminate in twin boundary motion mechanism and low twinning stress.

Experiences in how RSE community identity leads to improved research software practices

description: Abstract: Research software once was a heroic and lonely activity, particularly in research computing and in HPC. But today, research software is a social activity, in the senses that most software depends on other software, and that most software that is intended to be used by more than one person is written by more than one person. These social factors have led to generally accepted practices for code development and maintenance and for interactions around code. This paper examines how these practices form, become accepted, and later change in different contexts. In addition, given that research software engineering (RSEng) and research software engineers (RSEs) are becoming accepted parts of the research software endeavor, it looks at the role of RSEs in creating, adapting, and infusing these practices. It does so by examining aspects around practices at three levels: in communities, projects, and groups. Because RSEs are often the point where new practices become accepted and then disseminated, this paper suggests that tool and practice developers should be working to get RSE champions to adopt their tools and practices, and that people who seek to understand research software practices should be studying RSEs. It also suggests areas for further research to test this idea.

description: Training neural networks on newly available data leads to catastrophic forgetting of previously learned information. The naive solution of retraining the neural network on the entire combined data set of old and new data is costly and slow and not always feasible when access to the old data is restricted. Various strategies have been proposed to counter catastrophic forgetting, among them Generative Replay, where together with the discriminator a second, generative model is trained to learn the distribution of the training data. When new data becomes available the generator produces data resembling the old data set and the neural networks’ training is continued on the combination of the new data and the generated replay data. In this thesis, we implement this method and add it to the Open Source Continual Learning Library Avalanche. We then compare several variations of how to use Generative Replay in order to understand better when the method works best, using the common benchmark scenario splitMNIST as our testing scenario. We then argue that benchmarks like these do not necessarily correspond to real-life settings and we propose a new scenario to address this issue. We evaluate several strategies on the new scenario and find that state-of-the-art method iCaRL is outperformed by Generative Replay. However, we also find that Generative Replay is not easy to use and it requires knowledge on the underlying scenario to adjust it to work properly.

description: The agricultural commodity price spike of 2006-2008 has spurred fears of global food insecurity and raised concerns of structural changes in the agricultural market environment. Extreme price volatility of agricultural commodities poses a major threat to both producers and consumers in developed and developing countries. The primary objective of the study is to test the structural changes in volatility of international grain prices. The empirical results show that a single structural change in volatility occurred in wheat and corn market over the 2000-2010 period, specifically on September 20, 2006 and May 24, 2006, respectively. For soybean market, multiple structural changes in volatility occurred during the period 2000-2010, specifically on September 24, 2003, August 3, 2005, and July 11, 2007. To cope with high price volatility in agricultural markets, policy measures should improve market functioning and increase countries' readiness to respond to external shocks.

description: We introduce a complete analytical and numerical study of the modulational instability process in a system governed by a canonical nonlinear Schrödinger equation involving local, arbitrary nonlinear responses to the applied field. In particular, our theory accounts for the recently proposed higher-order Kerr nonlinearities, providing very simple analytical criteria for the identification of multiple regimes of stability and instability of plane-wave solutions in such systems. Moreover, we discuss a new parametric regime in the higher-order Kerr response which allows for the observation of several, alternating stability-instability windows defining a yet unexplored instability landscape.

description: Im folgenden Beitrag werden die stereotypen Darstellungen von Frauen anhand
            der Inszenierung von drei Ermittlerinnen im Tatort analysiert. Es wird dabei die
            Entwicklung des Frauenbildes von den Kommissarinnen zwischen ihrem ersten
            Erscheinen (1989, 1997 und 2002) und der aktuellen Episode der Kommissarinnen
            (2011 und 2012) aufgezeigt. Mittels qualitativer Inhaltsanalyse wurden der
            Charakter und das Verhalten der ausgewählten Akteurinnen analysiert. Die
            Kommissarin Lena Odenthal stellt hierbei den Ausgangspunkt dieser Analyse dar,
            da sie das Rollenbild von der Kommissarin im Tatort revolutionierte. Welche
            dominanten Diskurse über die stereotype Darstellung von Frauen heute im Tatort
            verhandelt werden, steht im Mittelpunkt des Forschungsinteresses.
Dual Mode pHRI-teleHRI Control System with a Hybrid Admittance-Force Controller for Ultrasound Imaging

ABSTRACT: The COVID-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented extreme pressure on the medical system due to the physical distance policy, especially for procedures such as ultrasound (US) imaging, which are usually carried out in person. Tele-operation systems are a promising way to avoid physical human?robot interaction (pHRI). However, the system usually requires another robot on the remote doctor side to provide haptic feedback, which makes it expensive and complex. To reduce the cost and system complexity, in this paper, we present a low-cost, easy-to-use, dual-mode pHRI-teleHRI control system with a custom-designed hybrid admittance-force controller for US imaging. The proposed system requires only a tracking camera rather than a sophisticated robot on the remote side. An audio feedback is designed for replacing haptic feedback on the remote side, and its sufficiency is experimentally verified. The experimental results indicate that the designed hybrid controller can significantly improve the task performance in both modes. Furthermore, the proposed system enables the user to conduct US imaging while complying with the physical distance policy, and allows them to seamlessly switch modes from one to another in an online manner. The novel system can be easily adapted to other medical applications beyond the pandemic, such as tele-healthcare, palpation, and auscultation.

description: Background: Liver compresses are commonly applied in complementary medicine during cancer treatment and are believed to have an energizing effect. We conducted a pilot study to investigate the influence of external application of yarrow liver compresses on the autonomous nervous system by analyzing the heart rate variability (HRV) in metastatic cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy and suffering from cancer-related fatigue (CRF). Methods: A randomized pilot trial was undertaken with patients suffering from CRF receiving palliative radiation therapy for bone or brain metastasis over 2 weeks. CRF patients were randomized into an intervention group receiving yarrow liver compresses and a control group receiving no external application. HRV was analyzed at the beginning (T1) and end (T2) period of the study during daytime (d) and nighttime (n) in both groups and quantified using time-, frequency-, and nonlinear dynamics domains. Results: A total of 39 patients were randomized between September 2017 and August 2019 and a total of 20 patients (10 per group) were available for analysis. For both groups, significant differences in HRV analyses were found in the comparison over the timeline between the first and second measurement (T1d → T2d) during daytime. Specifically, the intervention group showed decreased HRV and complexity of heart rate regulation, indicating increased sympathetic activity at time T2d, whereas the control group showed increased HRV and complexity of heart rate regulation, indicating increased vagal activity at time T2d. Furthermore, the observed HRV analyses showed almost no significant differences between the 2 groups in a direct comparison at the beginning and the end of the study (exception: T2d). Conclusions: Yarrow liver compresses led to increased sympathetic activity during daytime in the intervention group, whereas in the control group, which did not receive any external application, increased parasympathetic activity was observed.
