description: WASP-107b is a warm ($\sim$740 K) transiting planet with a Neptune-like mass of $\sim$30.5 $M_{\oplus}$ and Jupiter-like radius of $\sim$0.94 $R_{\rm J}$, whose extended atmosphere is eroding. Previous observations showed evidence for water vapour and a thick high-altitude condensate layer in WASP-107b's atmosphere. Recently, photochemically produced sulphur dioxide (SO$_2$) was detected in the atmosphere of a hot ($\sim$1,200 K) Saturn-mass planet from transmission spectroscopy near 4.05 $μ$m, but for temperatures below $\sim$1,000 K sulphur is predicted to preferably form sulphur allotropes instead of SO$_2$. Here we report the 9$σ$-detection of two fundamental vibration bands of SO$_2$, at 7.35 $μ$m and 8.69 $μ$m, in the transmission spectrum of WASP-107b using the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) of the JWST. This discovery establishes WASP-107b as the second irradiated exoplanet with confirmed photochemistry, extending the temperature range of exoplanets exhibiting detected photochemistry from $\sim$1,200 K down to $\sim$740 K. Additionally, our spectral analysis reveals the presence of silicate clouds, which are strongly favoured ($\sim$7$σ$) over simpler cloud setups. Furthermore, water is detected ($\sim$12$σ$), but methane is not. These findings provide evidence of disequilibrium chemistry and indicate a dynamically active atmosphere with a super-solar metallicity.

description: Metabarcoding studies of fungal communities rely on curated databases for assigning taxonomy. Any host or other nonfungal environmental sequences that are amplified during polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are inherently assigned taxonomy by these same databases, possibly leading to ambiguous nonfungal amplicons being assigned to fungal taxa. Here, we investigated the effects of including nonfungal outgroups in a fungal taxonomic database to aid in detecting and removing these nontarget amplicons. We processed 15 publicly available fungal metabarcode data sets and discovered that roughly 40% of the reads from these studies were not fungal, although they were assigned as Fungus sp. when using a database without nonfungal outgroups. We discuss implications for metabarcoding studies and recommend assigning taxonomy using a database with outgroups to better detect these nonfungal amplicons.

description: Canopy soils occur on tree branches throughout the temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest Coast and are recognized as a defining characteristic of these ecosystems. Certain tree species extend adventitious roots into these canopy soil environments. Yet, research on adventitious root-associated fungi remains limited. Our study used microscopy to compare fungal colonization intensity between canopy and forest floor roots of old-growth bigleaf maple (Acer macrophyllum) trees. Subsequently, two high-throughput sequencing platforms were used to explore the spatial and seasonal variation of root-associated fungi between the two soil environments over one year. We found that canopy and forest floor roots had similar colonization intensity and were associating with a diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and other potential symbionts, many of which were resolved to species level. Soil environment and seasonality affected root-associated fungal community composition, and several fungal species were indicative of the canopy soil environment. In Washington State’s (USA) temperate old-growth rainforests, these canopy soil environments host a unique suite of root-associated fungi. The presence of arbuscular mycorrhizae provides further evidence that adventitious roots form fungal associations to exploit canopy soils for resources, and there may be novel relationships forming with other fungi. These soils may be providing a redundancy compartment (i.e., “nutrient reserve”), imparting a resiliency to disturbances for certain old-growth trees.

description: We present further analysis of the [CII] 158$μ$m fine structure line and thermal dust continuum emission from the archetype extreme starburst/AGN group of galaxies in the early Universe, BRI 1202-0725 at $z=4.7$, using the Atacama Large Millimeter Array. The group is long noted for having a closely separated (26kpc in projection) FIR-hyperluminous quasar host galaxy and an optically obscured submm galaxy (SMG). A short ALMA test observation reveals a rich laboratory for the study of the myriad processes involved in clustered massive galaxy formation in the early Universe. Strong [CII] emission from the SMG and the quasar have been reported earlier by Wagg et al. (2012) based on these observations. In this letter, we examine in more detail the imaging results from the ALMA observations, including velocity channel images, position-velocity plots, and line moment images. We present detections of [CII] emission from two Ly$α$-selected galaxies in the group, demonstrating the relative ease with which ALMA can detect the [CII] emission from lower star formation rate galaxies at high redshift. Imaging of the [CII] emission shows a clear velocity gradient across the SMG, possibly indicating rotation or a more complex dynamical system on a scale $\sim 10$kpc. There is evidence in the quasar spectrum and images for a possible outflow toward the southwest, as well as more extended emission (a 'bridge'), between the quasar and the SMG, although the latter could simply be emission from Ly$α$-1 blending with that of the quasar at the limited spatial resolution of the current observations. These results provide an unprecedented view of a major merger of gas rich galaxies driving extreme starbursts and AGN accretion during the formation of massive galaxies and supermassive black holes within 1.3 Gyr of the Big Bang.

description: In this paper, the existence of a weak solution for homogeneous incompressible Bingham fluid is investigated. The rheology of such a fluid is defined by a yield stress $τ_y$ and a discontinuous stress-strain law. This non-Newtonian fluid behaves like a solid at low stresses and like a non-linear fluid above the yield stress. In this work we propose to build a weak solution for Navier stokes Bingham equations using a bi-viscosity fluid as an approximation, in particular, we proved that the bi-viscosity tensor converges weakly to the Bingham tensor.

description: We performed multi-band deep imaging of the field around GRB 050730 to identify the host galaxies of intervening absorbers, which consist of a damped Lyα absorption (DLA) system at zabs=3.564, a sub-DLA system at zabs=3.022, and strong MgII absorption systems at zabs=1.773 and 2.253. Our observations were performed after the gamma-ray burst afterglow had disappeared. Thus, our imaging survey has a higher sensitivity to the host galaxies of the intervening absorbers than the normal imaging surveys in the direction of QSOs, for which the QSO glare tends to hide the foreground galaxies. In this deep imaging survey, we could not detect any unambiguous candidates for the host galaxies of the intervening absorbers. Using the 3sigma upper limit of the flux in the optical to mid-infrared observing bands, which corresponds to the UV to optical bands in the rest-frame of the intervening absorbers, we constrained the star-formation rates and stellar masses of the hosts. We estimated the star-formation rates for the intervening absorbers as < 2.5 Msun/yr for z>3 DLAs and < 1.0 Msun/yr for z~2 MgII systems. Their stellar masses are estimated to be several times 10^9 Msun or smaller for all intervening galaxies. These properties are comparable to dwarf galaxies, rather than the massive star-forming galaxies commonly seen in the z>2 galaxy surveys based on emission-line selection or color selection.

description: We consider Pareto surface based multi-criteria optimization for step and shoot IMRT planning. By analyzing two navigation algorithms, we show both theoretically and in practice that the number of plans needed to form convex combinations of plans during navigation can be kept small (much less than the theoretical maximum number needed in general, which is equal to the number of objectives for on-surface Pareto navigation). Therefore a workable approach for directly deliverable navigation in this setting is to segment the underlying Pareto surface plans and then enforce the mild restriction that only a small number of these plans are active at any time during plan navigation, thus limiting the total number of segments used in the final plan.

Energetics of superconductivity in the two dimensional Hubbard model

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The energetics of the interplay between superconductivity and the pseudogap in high temperature superconductivity is examined using the eight-site dynamical cluster approximation to the two dimensional Hubbard model. Two regimes of superconductivity are found: a weak coupling/large doping regime in which the onset of superconductivity causes a reduction in potential energy and an increase in kinetic energy, and a strong coupling regime in which superconductivity is associated with an increase in potential energy and decrease in kinetic energy. The crossover between the two regimes is found to coincide with the boundary of the normal state pseudogap, providing further evidence of the unconventional nature of superconductivity in the pseudogap regime. However the absence, in the strongly correlated but non-superconducting state, of discernibly nonlinear response to an applied pairing field, suggests that resonating valence bond physics is not the origin of the kinetic-energy driven superconductivity.

description: Large-amplitude asymptotic giant branch variables potentially rival Cepheid variables as fundamental calibrators of the distance scale, particularly if observations are made in the infrared, or where there is substantial interstellar obscuration. They are particularly useful for probing somewhat older populations, such as those found in dwarf spheroidal galaxies, elliptical galaxies or in the halos of spirals. Calibration data from the Galaxy and new observations of various Local Group galaxies are described and the outlook for the future, with a calibration from Gaia and observations from the next generation of infrared telescopes, is discussed.

description: We construct an explicit example of a de Sitter vacuum in type IIB string theory that realizes the proposal of Kähler uplifting. As the large volume limit in this method depends on the rank of the largest condensing gauge group we carry out a scan of gauge group ranks over the Kreuzer-Skarke set of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. We find large numbers of models with the largest gauge group factor easily exceeding a rank of one hundred. We construct a global model with Kähler uplifting on a two-parameter model on $\mathbb{CP}^4_{11169}$, by an explicit analysis from both the type IIB and F-theory point of view. The explicitness of the construction lies in the realization of a D7 brane configuration, gauge flux and RR and NS flux choices, such that all known consistency conditions are met and the geometric moduli are stabilized in a metastable de Sitter vacuum with spontaneous GUT scale supersymmetry breaking driven by an F-term of the Kähler moduli.

Description. Sponge that lives in association with the calcareous algae Jania adherens J.V.Lamouroux, 1816, it is massive and has mounds that resemble small volcanoes. The oscula are circular and mostly oval, 2–6 mm in diameter (Figure 3A). The surface is rough, not very compressible and brittle. The ectosome is regular, tangential, made up of single oxeas that are joined at each end by spongin (Figure 3D). The choanosome is more difficult to differentiate due to the ramifications of the calcareous algae, but a reticulate network of spicule lines is distinguished (Figure 3E). It has robust oxeas, with a slight curve in the middle and sharp ends (168.5 x 6.7 µm), the microsclere are C-shaped sigmas (20.4 µm) (Figure 3B–C).
Ecological notes. The species was found over rocks and calcareous algae from 12 to 16 m deep.
Distribution and previous records. The species was described by Hechtel in 1965 from Jamaica and has been reported from different Caribbean locations as Curaçao (Van Soest 1980), Gulf of Mexico (Rützler et al. 2009; Ugalde et al. 2021), Belize (Rützler et al. 2000) and Bocas del Toro, Panamá (Díaz 2005). Its distribution in the Pacific Ocean has been reported from Hawaii (Núñez et al. 2017), the Mexican Pacific coast (Cruz-Barraza & Carballo 2008) and the Pacific of Panama (Wulff 1996). Here we extend the species distribution and present the first record from Los Cóbanos, El Salvador (Table 12).
Remarks. The specimens coincide with the original description in size and form of the spicules (Hetchel 1965). They also agree with the ones described by Cruz-Barraza & Carballo (2008) which they found between the intertidal to 6 m depth, unlike our specimens that were found from 12 to 15 m depth. There are two other Hacliclona (Soestella) species described from the eastern Pacific: H. (S.) spuma and H. (S.) roslynae Sim-Smith, Hickman & Kelly, 2021, but these species have larger oxeas (up to 192 x 13 µm and 117x7 µm respectively) and they lack of microsclere (Sim-Smith et al. 2021).

description: Spatial and intensity normalization are nowadays a prerequisite for neuroimaging analysis. Influenced by voxel-wise and other univariate comparisons, where these corrections are key, they are commonly applied to any type of analysis and imaging modalities. Nuclear imaging modalities such as PET-FDG or FP-CIT SPECT, a common modality used in Parkinson's Disease diagnosis, are especially dependent on intensity normalization. However, these steps are computationally expensive and furthermore, they may introduce deformations in the images, altering the information contained in them. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), for their part, introduce position invariance to pattern recognition, and have been proven to classify objects regardless of their orientation, size, angle, etc. Therefore, a question arises: how well can CNNs account for spatial and intensity differences when analysing nuclear brain imaging? Are spatial and intensity normalization still needed? To answer this question, we have trained four different CNN models based on well-established architectures, using or not different spatial and intensity normalization preprocessing. The results show that a sufficiently complex model such as our three-dimensional version of the ALEXNET can effectively account for spatial differences, achieving a diagnosis accuracy of 94.1% with an area under the ROC curve of 0.984. The visualization of the differences via saliency maps shows that these models are correctly finding patterns that match those found in the literature, without the need of applying any complex spatial normalization procedure. However, the intensity normalization -- and its type -- is revealed as very influential in the results and accuracy of the trained model, and therefore must be well accounted.

description: Double-gated graphene devices provide an important platform for understanding electrical and optical properties of graphene. Here we present transport measurements of single layer, bilayer and trilayer graphene devices with suspended top gates. In zero magnetic fields, we observe formation of pnp junctions with tunable polarity and charge densities, as well as a tunable band gap in bilayer graphene and a tunable band overlap in trilayer graphene. In high magnetic fields, the devices' conductance are quantized at integer and fractional values of conductance quantum, and the data are in good agreement with a model based on edge state equilibration at pn interfaces.

description: This article introduces an improved approach to Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plot analysis, based on a new type of intercept correction factor. This factor is more cleanly defined than the factor previously used. General enabling theory is given that applies to any type of FN plot of data that can be fitted using a FN-type equation. Practical use is limited to emission situations where slope correction factors can be reliably predicted. By making a series of well-defined assumptions and approximations, it is shown how the general formulas reduce to provide an improved theory of orthodox FN-plot data analysis. This applies to situations where the circuit current is fully controlled by the emitter characteristics, and tunneling can be treated as taking place through a Schottky-Nordheim (SN) barrier. For orthodox emission, good working formulas make numerical evaluation of the slope correction factor and the new intercept correction factor quick and straightforward. A numerical illustration, using simulated emission data, shows how to use this improved approach to derive values for parameters in the full FN-type equation for the SN barrier. Good self-consistency is demonstrated. The general enabling formulas also pave the way for research aimed at developing analogous data-analysis procedures for non-orthodox emission situations.

description: Peculiar property of electronic order is clarified for the two-channel Kondo lattice. With two conduction electrons per site, the order parameter is a composite quantity involving both local and itinerant degrees of freedom. In contrast to the ordinary Kondo lattice, a heavy electron band is absent above the transition temperature, but is rapidly formed below it. The change of entropy associated with the ordering is found to be close to $\ln \sqrt 2$ per site. This entropy corresponds to the residual entropy in a two-channel Kondo impurity, which has been regarded as due to localized free Majorana particles. The present composite order is interpreted as instability of Majorana particles toward non-Kramers conduction electrons plus heavy fermions that involve localized electrons.

Regioselective layer-by-layer coating of colloidal silica (M.Sc. thesis)
Creators: name: Sitner, Sandra
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Anisotropic metal nanoparticles show promising features for catalysis, chemical and biological sensors or theranostics. Such anisotropic silver patches on colloidal silica are synthesised, processed and investigated in this current thesis with the goal of introducing a regioselective polyelectrolyte coating to the silica in addition to the silver patch.
 The silver patchy particles were synthesised by a modified Tollens process and functionalised with dodecanethiol which acts as a protective layer. The functionalised particles were then coated with PDADMAC using the layer-by-layer technique. The effect of varying coating time, salt type added to the polyelectrolyte solution as well as different salt concentrations was studied. Based on these results, a layer-by-layer coating procedure compatible with silver patchy particles was successfully established. The regioselectivity of the coating was shown by heterocoagulation with oppositely charged magnetite nanoparticles.
 The feasibility of a PDADMAC/PSS/PDADMAC multilayer was demonstrated, however, an improvement to a single polyelectrolyte layer was not noticeable. As a preparation for self-organisation studies, the size of regioselectively coated surface has been tuned indirectly by adjusting the silver patch size distribution. Mixing of coated and uncoated particles led to agglomeration, but no ordered self-organisation could be observed in an optical microscopy set-up, partly attributed to the limited magnification.

description: The MiniBooNE and SciBooNE collaborations report the results of a joint search for short baseline disappearance of \bar{ν_μ} at Fermilab's Booster Neutrino Beamline. The MiniBooNE Cherenkov detector and the SciBooNE tracking detector observe antineutrinos from the same beam, therefore the combined analysis of their datasets serves to partially constrain some of the flux and cross section uncertainties. Uncertainties in the ν_μ background were constrained by neutrino flux and cross section measurements performed in both detectors. A likelihood ratio method was used to set a 90% confidence level upper limit on \bar{ν_μ} disappearance that dramatically improves upon prior limits in the Δm^2=0.1-100 eV^2 region.

description: Big data and large-scale machine learning have had a profound impact on science and engineering, particularly in fields focused on forecasting and prediction. Yet, it is still not clear how we can use the superior pattern matching abilities of machine learning models for scientific discovery. This is because the goals of machine learning and science are generally not aligned. In addition to being accurate, scientific theories must also be causally consistent with the underlying physical process and allow for human analysis, reasoning, and manipulation to advance the field. In this paper, we present a case study on discovering a new symbolic model for oceanic rogue waves from data using causal analysis, deep learning, parsimony-guided model selection, and symbolic regression. We train an artificial neural network on causal features from an extensive dataset of observations from wave buoys, while selecting for predictive performance and causal invariance. We apply symbolic regression to distill this black-box model into a mathematical equation that retains the neural network's predictive capabilities, while allowing for interpretation in the context of existing wave theory. The resulting model reproduces known behavior, generates well-calibrated probabilities, and achieves better predictive scores on unseen data than current theory. This showcases how machine learning can facilitate inductive scientific discovery, and paves the way for more accurate rogue wave forecasting.
Various Models Mimicking the SM Higgs Boson

description: This review is based on the talk presented at the SUSY 2012 (Beijing). The new particle around 125 GeV observed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is almost consistent with the standard model Higgs boson, except that the diphoton decay mode may be excessive. We summarize a number of possibilities. While at the LHC the dominant production mechanism for the Higgs boson of the standard model and some other extensions is via the gluon fusion process, the alternative vector-boson fusion is more sensitive to electroweak symmetry breaking. Using the well known dijet-tagging technique to single out the vector-boson fusion mechanism, we investigate potential of vector-boson fusion to discriminate a number of models suggested to give an enhanced inclusive diphoton production rate.

Illustrating field emission theory by using Lauritsen plots of transmission probability and barrier strength

description: This technical note relates to the theory of cold field electron emission (CFE). It starts by suggesting that, to emphasize common properties in relation to CFE theory, the term 'Lauritsen plot' could be used to describe all graphical plots made with the reciprocal of barrier field (or the reciprocal of a quantity proportional to barrier field) on the horizontal axis. It then argues that Lauritsen plots related to barrier strength (G) and transmission probability (D) could play a useful role in discussion of CFE theory. Such plots would supplement conventional Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plots. All these plots would be regarded as particular types of Lauritsen plot. The Lauritsen plots of -G and lnD can be used to illustrate how basic aspects of FN tunnelling theory are influenced by the mathematical form of the tunnelling barrier. These, in turn, influence local emission current density and emission current. Illustrative applications used in this note relate to the well-known exact triangular and Schottky-Nordheim barriers, and to the Coulomb barrier (i.e., the electrostatic component of the electron potential energy barrier outside a model spherical emitter). For the Coulomb barrier, a good analytical series approximation has been found for the barrier-form correction factor; this can be used to predict the existence (and to some extent the properties) of related curvature in FN plots.

description: This research aims to explore many commonly asserted connections between public transit routes and ethnic separations in Chicago neighborhoods. It investigates potential political intentions behind design decisions and aims to examine isolative effects of both transit design to limit movement and transit design to create boundaries. The relationships between the government, the transit authorities, local political culture, existing ethnic divisions, and route designs are also discussed.

description: Fermions, as a major class of quantum particles, provide platforms for quantum information processing beyond the possibilities of spins or bosons which have been studied more extensively. One particularly interesting model to study, in view of recent progress in manipulating ultracold fermion gases, is the fermionic version of measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC), which implements full quantum computation with only single site measurements on a proper fermionic many-body resource state. However, it is not known which fermionic states can be used as the resource states for MBQC and how to find them. In this paper, we generalize the framework of spin MBQC to fermions. In particular, we provide a general formalism to construct many-body entangled fermion resource states for MBQC based on the fermionic projected entangled pair state representation. We give a specific fermionic state which enables universal MBQC and demonstrate that the non-locality inherent in fermion systems can be properly taken care of with suitable measurement schemes. Such a framework opens up possibilities of finding MBQC resource states which can be more readily realized in the lab.

description: A derivation of Noether current from the surface term of Einstein-Hilbert action is given. We show that the corresponding charge, calculated on the horizon, is related to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. Also using the charge, the same entropy is found based on the Virasoro algebra and Cardy formula approach. In this approach, the relevant diffeomorphisms are found by imposing a very simple physical argument: diffeomorphisms keep the horizon structure invariant. This complements similar earlier results (arXiv:1204.1422) obtained from York-Gibbons-Hawking surface term. Finally we discuss the technical simplicities and improvements over the earlier attempts and also various important physical implications.

"They Think You Are a Magician - That I Could Just Pull a Rabbit out of a Hat": An exploration of the barriers that prevent girls in the Cook County foster care system from receiving adequate mental health care and how to eliminate them
Creators: name: Benz, Claudia
Publisher: name: University of Chicago

Subjects: subject: mental health care

description: Girls in foster care have poorer mental health outcomes than boys in care. Genderspecific barriers to effective mental health care have been seldom identified in current literature. This thesis seeks to explore these barriers through interviews with six caseworkers in the Cook County foster care system. Through these interviews, themes of barriers relating to resources, provider quality, youth in care, and caregivers emerged. This paper proposes several reforms for the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services and outlines an integrated-services model for a third party not-for-profit organization to mitigate barriers to girls’ mental health care and improve the quality of care that girls receive.
