description: We present a sample of the most interesting classical Cepheids selected from the OGLE collection of classical Cepheids in the Magellanic System. The main selection criterion for this sample was the presence of non-standard, unique pulsational properties. The sample contains the first known double-mode Cepheid pulsating in the second- and third-overtone modes and a large number of objects with non-radial modes excited. We also found Cepheids revealing Blazhko-like light curve modulation, objects ceasing pulsations or showing atypical shapes of their light curves. Additionally, the status of several triple mode classical Cepheids is updated based on OGLE-IV photometry extending the time baseline to 15 years.

D8.5.1 Exergy Analysis of the ASTEP system

description: This document covers the first step of the exergy analysis as it was planned in the GA for the task T8.5.
 The objective of this analysis is to identify the irreversibility of the different components and to assess the inefficiencies of the system to propose different alternatives of optimization.
 To attain this objective, some simulations of the integrated ASTEP systems for MAN and AMTP cases were performed in some representative days and for a whole year. The formulation used allows the identification of the inefficiencies of each component.
 The results of these simulations show that, as expected, the main contributor to the irreversibility of the system is the Sundial. Other important contributors are the heat exchangers, the chiller and the boiler and, when the storage system is almost full, the mixture that controls the temperature at the inlet of the demand side. In addition, further mixing and splitting processes were analysed and comparisons between the two systems were established.
 This task runs in parallel to those of WP5 aimed to the optimization of the system, so it has influenced in the decision of the final layout of each system, as it was highly conditioned by some constraints exposed in [1]. This task will continue once the data collected from WP6 and WP7 will be available, to propose additional improvements to the system.

description: In this paper, we discuss several relations between the existence of invariant volume forms for Hamiltonian systems on Poisson-Lie groups and the unimodularity of the Poisson-Lie structure. In particular, we prove that Hamiltonian vector fields on a Lie group endowed with a unimodular Poisson-Lie structure preserve a multiple of any left-invariant volume on the group. Conversely, we also prove that if there exists a Hamiltonian function such that the identity element of the Lie group is a nondegenerate singularity and the associated Hamiltonian vector field preserves a volume form, then the Poisson-Lie structure is necessarily unimodular. Furthermore, we illustrate our theory with different interesting examples, both on semisimple and unimodular Poisson-Lie groups.

description: Aluminum borohydride (Al(BH$_4$)$_3$) is an example of a promising hydrogen storage material with exceptional hydrogen densities by weight and volume and a low hydrogen desorption temperature. But, unfortunately, its production of diborane (B$_2$H$_6$) gases upon heating to release the hydrogen restricts its practical use. To elucidate this issue, we investigate the properties of a number of metal borohydrides with the same problem and find that the electronegativity of the metal cation is not the best descriptor of diborane production. We show that, instead, the closely related formation enthalpy is a better descriptor and we find that diborane production is an exponential function thereof. We conclude that diborane production is sufficiently suppressed for formation enthalpies of $-$80 kJ/mol BH$_4$ or lower, providing specific design guidelines to tune existing metal borohydrides or synthesize new ones. We then use first-principles methods to study the effects of Sc alloying in Al(BH$_4$)$_3$. Our results for the thermodynamic properties of the Al$_{1-x}$Sc$_x$(BH$_4$)$_3$ alloy clearly show the stabilizing effect of Sc alloying and thus the suppression of diborane production. We conclude that stabilizing Al(BH$_4$)$_3$ and similar borohydrides via alloying or other means is a promising route to suppress diborane production and thus develop viable hydrogen storage materials.

description: Inducing transport in electrolyte-filled nanopores with dc fields has led to influential applications ranging from nanosensors to DNA sequencing. Here we use the Poisson-Nernst-Planck and Navier-Stokes equations to show that unbiased ac fields can induce comparable directional flows in gated conical nanopores. This flow exclusively occurs at intermediate driving frequencies and hinges on the resonance of two competing timescales, representing space charge development at the ends and in the interior of the pore. We summarize the physics of resonant nanopumping in an analytical model that reproduces the results of numerical simulations. Our findings provide a generic route towards real-time controllable flow patterns, which might find applications in controlling the translocation of particles such as small molecules or nanocolloids.

description: Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic explosion events in the universe. An amount of gravitational energy of the order of the rest-mass energy of the Sun is released from a small region, within seconds or longer. This should lead to the formation of a fireball of temperature in the MeV range, consisting of electrons/positrons, photons, and a small fraction of baryons. We exploit the potential of GRB fireballs for being a laboratory for testing particle physics beyond the Standard Model, where we find that Weinberg's Higgs portal model serves as a good candidate for this purpose. Due to the resonance effects, the Goldstone bosons can be rapidly produced by electron-positron annihilation process in the initial fireballs of the gamma-ray bursts. On the other hand, the mean free path of the Goldstone bosons is larger than the size of the GRB initial fireballs, so they are not coupled to the GRB's relativistic flow and can lead to significant energy loss. Using generic values for the GRB initial fireball energy, temperature, radius, expansion rate, and baryon number density, we find that the GRB bounds on the parameters of Weinberg's Higgs portal model are indeed competitive to current laboratory constraints.

description: We study state transfer in quantum walk on graphs relative to the adjacency matrix. Our motivation is to understand how the addition of pendant subgraphs affect state transfer. For two graphs $G$ and $H$, the Frucht-Harary corona product $G \circ H$ is obtained by taking $|G|$ copies of the cone $K_{1} + H$ and by connecting the conical vertices according to $G$. Our work explores conditions under which the corona $G \circ H$ exhibits state transfer. We also describe new families of graphs with state transfer based on the corona product. Some of these constructions provide a generalization of related known results.

description: We study the proposal by Kharzeev-Levin to determine entanglement entropy in Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) from parton distribution functions (PDFs) and to relate the former to the entropy of final state hadrons. We find several uncertainties in the current comparison to data, in particular the overall normalization, the relation between charged versus total hadron multiplicity in the comparison to experimental results as well as different methods to determine the number of partons in Deep Inelastic Scattering. We further provide a comparison to data based on leading order HERA PDF as well as PDFs obtained from an unintegrated gluon distribution subject to next-to-leading order Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov and Balitsky-Kovchegov evolution. Within uncertainties we find good agreement with H1 data. We provide also predictions for entropy at lower photon virtualities, where non-linear QCD dynamics is expected to become relevant.

Differential privacy in statistical learning
Creators: name: Zhang, Zhe
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: In this dissertation, we cover two major topics: high dimensional differentially private EM algorithm and differentially private federated learning. In the first project, we develop a general framework to design differentially private expectation-maximization (EM) algorithms in high-dimensional latent variable models based on the noisy iterative hard-thresholding. We derive the statistical guarantees of the proposed framework and apply it to three specific models: Gaussian mixture, mixture of regression, and regression with missing covariates. In each model, we establish the near-optimal rate of convergence with differential privacy constraints, and show the proposed algorithm is minimax rate optimal up to logarithm factors. The technical tools developed for the high-dimensional setting are then extended to the classic low-dimensional latent variable models, and we propose a near rate-optimal EM algorithm with differential privacy guarantees in this setting. Simulation studies and real data analysis are conducted to support our results. In the second project, we discuss the problems of high-dimensional estimation and inference for federated learning in differential privacy settings. The first part of the project focuses on the case where the central server is untrusted. We show that we could not reach an accurate estimation in the high-dimensional setting with a sparse parameter by presenting the upper bound and lower bound of estimation for the basic mean estimation problems. The second part assumes a trusted central server and proposes a federated estimation algorithm for linear regression problems. We first assume that the models on each machine are the same and then extend it to the setting where the models on each machine are not identical but share similarities. The second part also presents the methods to conduct inference problems including coordinate-wise confidence intervals for individual parameters as well as simultaneous inference. Theoretical results and simulation results are also presented to support our findings.

description: We study the conditions under which the Majorana phase of the two flavor neutrino mixing matrix appears in the oscillation probabilities and causes $CP$ violation. We find that the Majorana phase remains in the neutrino evolution equation if the neutrino decay eigenstates are not aligned with the mass eigenstates. We show that, in general, two kinds of $CP$ violation are possible: one due to the Majorana phase and the other due to the phase of the off-diagonal element of the neutrino decay matrix. We find that the $CP$ violating terms in the oscillation probabilities are also sensitive to neutrino mass ordering.

description: 3D modeling of non-linear objects from stylized sketches is a challenge even for experts in Computer Graphics (CG). The extrapolation of objects parameters from a stylized sketch is a very complex and cumbersome task. In the present study, we propose a broker system that mediates between the modeler and the 3D modelling software and can transform a stylized sketch of a tree into a complete 3D model. The input sketches do not need to be accurate or detailed, and only need to represent a rudimentary outline of the tree that the modeler wishes to 3D-model. Our approach is based on a well-defined Deep Neural Network (DNN) architecture, we called TreeSketchNet (TSN), based on convolutions and able to generate Weber and Penn parameters that can be interpreted by the modelling software to generate a 3D model of a tree starting from a simple sketch. The training dataset consists of Synthetically-Generated \revision{(SG)} sketches that are associated with Weber-Penn parameters generated by a dedicated Blender modelling software add-on. The accuracy of the proposed method is demonstrated by testing the TSN with both synthetic and hand-made sketches. Finally, we provide a qualitative analysis of our results, by evaluating the coherence of the predicted parameters with several distinguishing features.

description: Coronagraphs of the apodized pupil and shaped pupil varieties use the Fraunhofer diffraction properties of amplitude masks to create regions of high contrast in the vicinity of a target star. Here we present a hybrid coronagraph architecture in which a binary, hard-edged shaped pupil mask replaces the gray, smooth apodizer of the apodized pupil Lyot coronagraph (APLC). For any contrast and bandwidth goal in this configuration, as long as the prescribed region of contrast is restricted to a finite area in the image, a shaped pupil is the apodizer with the highest transmission. We relate the starlight cancellation mechanism to that of the conventional APLC. We introduce a new class of solutions in which the amplitude profile of the Lyot stop, instead of being fixed as a padded replica of the telescope aperture, is jointly optimized with the apodizer. Finally, we describe shaped pupil Lyot coronagraph (SPLC) designs for the baseline architecture of the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope-Astrophysics Focused Telescope Assets (WFIRST-AFTA) coronagraph. These SPLCs help to enable two scientific objectives of the WFIRST-AFTA mission: (1) broadband spectroscopy to characterize exoplanet atmospheres in reflected starlight and (2) debris disk imaging.

description: Electron quasiparticles play a crucial role in simplifying the description of many-body physics in solids with surprising success. Conventional Landau's Fermi-liquid and quasiparticle theories for high-temperature superconducting cuprates have, however, received skepticism from various angles. A path-breaking framework of electron fractionalization has been established to replace the Fermi-liquid theory for systems that show the fractional quantum Hall effect and the Mott insulating phenomena; whether it captures the essential physics of the pseudogap and superconducting phases of cuprates is still an open issue. Here, we show that excitonic excitation of optimally doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ with energy far above the superconducting-gap energy scale, about 1 eV or even higher, is unusually enhanced by the onset of superconductivity. Our finding proves the involvement of such high-energy excitons in superconductivity. Therefore, the observed enhancement in the spectral weight of excitons imposes a crucial constraint on theories for the pseudogap and superconducting mechanisms. A simple two-component fermion model which embodies electron fractionalization in the pseudogap state well explains the change, pointing toward a novel route for understanding the electronic structure of superconducting cuprates.
Excitation of ship waves by a submerged object: new solution to the classical problem

description: We have proposed a new method for solving the problem of ship waves excited on the surface of a non-viscous liquid by a submerged object that moves at a variable speed. As a first application of this method, we have obtained a new solution to the classic problem of ship waves generated by a submerged ball that moves rectilinearly with constant velocity parallel to the equilibrium surface of the liquid. For this example, we have derived asymptotic expressions describing the vertical displacement of the liquid surface in the limit of small and large values of the Froude number. The exact solution is presented in the form of two terms, each of which is reduced to one-dimensional integrals. One term describes the "Bernoulli hump" and another term the "Kelvin wedge." As a second example, we considered vertical oscillation of the submerged ball. In this case, the solution leads to the calculation of one-dimensional integral and describes surface waves propagating from the epicenter above the ball.

description: MWC158 is a star with the B[e] phenomenon that shows strong spectrophotometric variability (in lines and in UV and visible continuum) attributed to phases of shell ejection. The evolutionary stage of this star was never clearly determined. Previous interferometric, spectropolarimetric and spectro-interferometric studies suggest a disk morphology for its environment. We investigate the origin of the variability within the inner astronomical unit of the central star using near-infrared interferometric observations with PIONIER at the VLTI over a two-year period. We performed an image reconstruction of the circumstellar environment using the SPARCO method. We discovered that the morphology of the circumstellar environment could vary on timescales of weeks or days. We carried out a parametric fit of the data with a model consisting of a star, a disk and a bright spot that represents a brighter emission in the disk. We detect strong morphological changes in the first astronomical unit around the star, that happen on a timescale of few months. We cannot account for such variability well with a binary model. Our parametric model fits the data well and allows us to extract the location of the asymmetry for different epochs. For the first time, we detect a morphological variability in the environment of MWC158. This variability is reproduced by a model of a disk and a bright spot. The locations of the bright spot suggest that it is located in the disk, but its precise motion is not determined. The origin of the asymmetry in the disk is complex and may be related to asymmetric shell ejections.

"To capture a vision fair:" Black sorority women and the shift from respectability politics to public policy, 1935-1975

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: "'To Capture a Vision Fair:' Black Sorority Women and the Shift from Respectability Politics to Public Policy, 1935-1975," illuminates the ways in which Black women reworked existing traditions and organizations emerging in the early 20th century in order to seize upon the opportunities created by the New Deal and later War on Poverty programming. Scholars have illuminated the ways in which Black clubwomen constructed and relied on notions of respectability to structure their social service programs, defend themselves against racialized and gendered discrimination, and influence American discourses on citizenship and politics from the 1880s through the 1920s. However, this historiography loses sight of this tradition of organizing and activism in the decades going forward; meaning that we do not yet have a thorough, nuanced examination of Black women's formal political activism from the 1930s until what is commonly referred to as the long Civil Rights movement. By focusing on the political agenda of a critical segment of Black women organizers, the Black colligate sororities, "'To Capture a Vision Fair:'” argues that Black sorority women strategically pivoted their ideologies and programming, beginning in the 1930s, to build upon legacies of uplift and respectability and moved beyond them to a combination that envisioned a greater partnership with the federal government in order to propel the long Black freedom struggle. As such, this project interrogates the malleability of respectability politics as a political and personal strategy. While the self-regulation, self-determination, and self-valuation that accompanied these politics continued to be a cornerstone of liberal Black women's politics, the women organizing between the 1930s and the 1970s also profoundly transformed it. Black women politicos began to think more broadly about public policy and the ways the state could further support the needs of African Americans, particularly around issues of employment, economic justice, health, and full political inclusion and representation. Using a range of archival sources, which include Black sorority magazines, the personal papers of key leaders, and congressional hearing transcripts, this project elucidates Black sorority women's persistent and consistent effort to shape United States politics and policies, make the state accountable to the needs of Black people, and expand opportunities for a new cadre of Black women political leaders.

description: Network structure provides critical information for understanding the dynamic behavior of networks. However, the complete structure of real-world networks is often unavailable, thus it is crucially important to develop approaches to infer a more complete structure of networks. In this paper, we integrate the configuration model for generating random networks into an Expectation-Maximization-Aggregation (EMA) framework to reconstruct the complete structure of multiplex networks. We validate the proposed EMA framework against the random model on several real-world multiplex networks, including both covert and overt ones. It is found that the EMA framework generally achieves the best predictive accuracy compared to the EM framework and the random model. As the number of layers increases, the performance improvement of EMA over EM decreases. The inferred multiplex networks can be leveraged to inform the decision-making on monitoring covert networks as well as allocating limited resources for collecting additional information to improve reconstruction accuracy. For law enforcement agencies, the inferred complete network structure can be used to develop more effective strategies for covert network interdiction.
D9.1.2 Communication Strategy

description: The Deliverable 9.1.2 is part of the Work Package 9 ‘Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation’, of the ASTEP project and gives a detailed description of the project’s communication strategy for outreach to public and the wider stakeholders. This is the second version of the entitled ‘Communication strategy’ report, documenting the effort specifically under Task 9.1 ‘Communication Strategy Activities’.
 This document presents a comprehensive plan for the communication activities throughout the project’s lifetime. It is a practical document intended to be used as a working reference for the project partners. It lays out key targets, responsibilities, processes and indicative timings. Well planned and regular efforts including all partners will be required to amplify the key messages of the project, its activities, the expected results, and how different target groups can benefit from these results.
 The plan reflects the European Union’s best practice guidance for communication H2020 projects and is structured around the “6W’s” approach:
 ● Why? What are our objectives and why is it important for us to communicate?
 ● Who? Target audiences / stakeholder groups and the different communication objectives, messages, and mode of delivery applicable to them.
 ● What? Key communication messages and key results to be disseminated.
 ● Where? Both geographic location of target audiences and the communications channels that will provide the ability to reach them.
 ● When? Timing and frequency of all planned communication activities throughout the duration of the project, with respect to the internal resource planning, expected emergence of key results and external events and opportunities.
 ● How? Both using the right channels, language, and branding, and how all communications and dissemination related activity will be coordinated, managed and measured effectively.
 Following this structure, the first part of this document explains the rationale why a communication strategy is needed and the main objectives of this strategy. The targeted audience is then set and appropriate key messages are presented for each stakeholder group. This is followed by a list of communication means through which the relevant audiences can be reached. The final section discusses internal processes and tools (e.g. events calendar, activities plan) set up to ensure the timely exchange of information between partners. The Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are then highlighted and the importance of evaluating the activities is explained.

description: By a hybrid integration of plasmonic and dielectric waveguide concepts, it is shown that coherent perfect absorption can be achieved in a co-propagant coupler geometry. The device holds promises for classical and quantum signal processing. First, the operating principle of the proposed device is detailed in the context of a more general 2x2 lossy coupler formalism. Then, it is shown how to tune the device in a wide region of possible working points, its broadband operation, and the tolerance to fabrication uncertainties. Finally, a complete picture of the electromagnetic modes inside the hybrid structure is analyzed, shining light onto the potentials which the proposed device holds in view of other applications like nonlinear optics, polarization control, and sensing.

description: Recent progresses in the description of the latter stage of nuclear fission are reported. Dynamical effects during the descent of the potential towards scission and in the formation of the fission fragments are studied with the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approach with dynamical pairing correlations at the BCS level. In particular, this approach is used to compute the final kinetic energy of the fission fragments. Comparison with experimental data on the fission of 258Fm are made.

description: The so-called ``small denominator problem'' was a fundamental problem of dynamics, as pointed out by Poincaré. Small denominators appear most commonly in perturbative theory. The Duffing equation is the simplest example of a non-integrable system exhibiting all problems due to small denominators. In this paper, using the forced Duffing equation as an example, we illustrate that the famous ``small denominator problems'' never appear if a non-perturbative approach based on the homotopy analysis method (HAM), namely ``the method of directly defining inverse mapping'' (MDDiM), is used. The HAM-based MDDiM provides us great freedom to directly define the inverse operator of an undetermined linear operator so that all small denominators can be completely avoided and besides the convergent series of multiple limit-cycles of the forced Duffing equation with high nonlinearity are successfully obtained. So, from the viewpoint of the HAM, the famous ``small denominator problems'' are only artifacts of perturbation methods. Therefore, completely abandoning perturbation methods but using the HAM-based MDDiM, one would be never troubled by ``small denominators''. The HAM-based MDDiM has general meanings in mathematics and thus can be used to attack many open problems related to the so-called ``small denominators''.

description: Richard C. Tolman analyzed the relation between a temperature gradient and a gravitational field in an equilibrium situation. In 2012, Tolman\textquoteright s law was generalized to a non-equilibrium situation for a simple dilute relativistic fluid. The result in that scenario, obtained by introducing the gravitational force through the molecular acceleration, couples the heat flux with the metric coefficients and the gradients of the state variables. In the present paper it is shown, by \textquotedblleft suppressing\textquotedblright{} the molecular acceleration in Boltzmann\textquoteright s equation, that a gravitational field drives a heat flux. This procedure corresponds to the description of particle motion through geodesics, in which a Newtonian limit to the Schwarzschild metric is assumed. The effect vanishes in the non-relativistic regime, as evidenced by the direct evaluation of the corresponding limit.

description: Systems biology approaches to the integrative study of cells, organs and organisms offer the best means of understanding in a holistic manner the diversity of molecular assays that can be now be implemented in a high throughput manner. Such assays can sample the genome, epigenome, proteome, metabolome and microbiome contemporaneously, allowing us for the first time to perform a complete analysis of physiological activity. The central problem remains empowering the scientific community to actually implement such an integration, across seemingly diverse data types and measurements. One promising solution is to apply semantic techniques on a self-consistent and implicitly correct ontological representation of these data types. In this paper we describe how we have applied one such solution, based around the InterMine data warehouse platform which uses as its basis the Sequence Ontology, to facilitate a systems biology analysis of virulence in the apicomplexan pathogen $Toxoplasma~gondii$, a common parasite that infects up to half the worlds population, with acute pathogenic risks for immuno-compromised individuals or pregnant mothers. Our solution, which we named `toxoMine', has provided both a platform for our collaborators to perform such integrative analyses and also opportunities for such cyberinfrastructure to be further developed, particularly to take advantage of possible semantic similarities of value to knowledge discovery in the Omics enterprise. We discuss these opportunities in the context of further enhancing the capabilities of this powerful integrative platform.

description: Protein-based high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) have gained tremendous attention in diverse fields, but their mechanism in the emulsification process remains elusive. In this article, HIPEs were stabilized directly by food-grade proteins, depending on a self-organized process featuring a fluid laminarization. We elucidated that the emulsification with the rotor-stator mixer is a typical non-equilibrium process. The crucial factor for the process is related to the irreversible energy dissipation, while the internal phase volume fraction is the threshold determining the laminarization. The feasible explanation speculated that the transition corresponds to the dissipative structure, i.e., compressive droplets, arising from the spatiotemporal self-organization, to dissipate the turbulent kinetic energy. We found a new paradigm of dissipative structure, comprehending such structure in the HIPEs emulsification process, which is expected to pave the way for its industrial-scale production with the virtue of low-cost proteins.

description: We propose using trapped electrons as high-$Q$ resonators for detecting meV dark photon dark matter. When the rest energy of the dark photon matches the energy splitting of the two lowest cyclotron levels, the first excited state of the electron cyclotron will be resonantly excited. A proof-of-principle measurement, carried out with one electron, demonstrates that the method is background-free over a 7.4 day search. It sets a limit on dark photon dark matter at 148 GHz (0.6 meV) that is around 75 times better than previous constraints. Dark photon dark matter in the 0.1-1 meV mass range (20-200 GHz) could likely be detected at a similar sensitivity in an apparatus designed for dark photon detection.

description: In previous works we have studied spin-3/2 fields near 4-dimensional Schwarzschild black holes. The techniques we developed in that case have now been extended here to show that it is possible to determine the potential of spin-3/2 fields near $D$-dimensional black holes by exploiting the radial symmetry of the system. This removes the need to use the Newman-Penrose formalism, which is difficult to extend to $D$-dimensional space-times. In this paper we will derive a general $D$-dimensional gauge invariant effective potential for spin-3/2 fields near black hole systems. We then use this potential to determine the quasi-normal modes and absorption probabilities of spin-3/2 fields near a $D$-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole.
