description: The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of coated textiles with metal nanoparticles (NPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the area of UVR protection via a systematic review and meta-analysis. For this purpose, four international electronic databases including PubMed, Scopus, ISI/Web of Science, and Google Scholar have been searched in 2021. All the analyses were done by STATA version 12 software. In general, NPs has Odd ratio of 7.32 (confidence interval 95% (CI 95%) 6.62 to 8.10) and the MOFs has an Odd ratio of 7.90 (CI 95%: 5.72 to 10.90). The results of correlation between metal NPs and MOFs showed that there was no statistically significant difference between them (Z = 0.111, p = 0.456). This result can be attributed to the difference between the number of studies conducted between metal NPs and MOFs.

description: Severe heatwaves cause tens of thousands of deaths worldwide, and extreme temperatures increase energy use for space-cooling in built environments. The regional heatwave can be amplified locally around built environments due to the thermal and radiative properties of the urban fabric. Therefore, built environments are exposed to excessive heat stressors, and better modeling is needed to identify the complicated interaction between heat stressors and built environments. This thesis aims at three research objectives. The first research develops probabilistic models to enable rapid and efficient forecasts of near-surface temperature with adequate accuracy, motivated by the necessity of highly resolution forecasts for mitigating urban heat risk. The second research develops an approach for quantifying the propagating uncertainty of urban temperature to the energy use of buildings. The study aims to properly consider the heat-induced uncertainty in urban electricity systems at a single-building scale. Finally, extending the previous research, the last research proposes to use an information theory to evaluate the value of accurate temperature modeling to save electricity costs for a building. The overall impact of the study is related to enhancing the resilience of the urban community by leveraging the knowledge of probability and urban informatics.
S3T stability of the homogeneous state of barotropic beta-plane turbulence

description: Zonal jets and non-zonal large-scale flows are often present in forced-dissipative barotropic turbulence on a beta-plane. The dynamics underlying the formation of both zonal and non-zonal coherent structures is investigated in this work within the statistical framework of Stochastic Structural Stability Theory (S3T). Previous S3T studies have shown that the homogeneous turbulent state undergoes a bifurcation at a critical parameter and becomes inhomogeneous with the emergence of zonal and/or large-scale non-zonal flows and that these statistical predictions of S3T are reflected in direct numerical simulations. In this paper, we study the dynamics underlying the S3T statistical instability of the homogeneous state as a function of parameters. It is shown that for weak planetary vorticity gradient, $β$, both zonal jets and non-zonal large-scale structures form from upgradient momentum fluxes due to shearing of the eddies by the emerging infinitesimal flow. For large $β$, the dynamics of the S3T instability differs for zonal and non-zonal flows but in both the destabilizing vorticity fluxes decrease with increasing $β$. Shearing of the eddies by the mean flow continues to be the mechanism for the emergence of zonal jets while non-zonal large-scale flows emerge from resonant and near resonant triad interactions between the large-scale flow and the stochastically forced eddies. The relation between the formation of large-scale structure through modulational instability and the S3T instability of the homogeneous state is also investigated and it is shown that the modulational instability results are subsumed by the S3T results.

Stronger uncertainty relations for the sum of variances

description: Heisenberg-Robertson's uncertainty relation expresses a limitation in the possible preparations of the system by giving a lower bound to the product of the variances of two observables in terms of their commutator. Notably, it does not capture the concept of incompatible observables because it can be trivial, i.e., the lower bound can be null even for two non-compatible observables. Here we give two stronger uncertainty relations, relating to the sum of variances, whose lower bound is guaranteed to be nontrivial whenever the two observables are incompatible on the state of the system.

description: We have measured the lifetime of spin imbalances in the quasiparticle population of a superconductor ($τ_s$) in the frequency domain. A time-dependent spin imbalance is created by injecting spin-polarised electrons at finite excitation frequencies into a thin-film mesoscopic superconductor (Al) in an in-plane magnetic field (in the Pauli limit). The time-averaged value of the spin imbalance signal as a function of excitation frequency, $f_{RF}$ shows a cut-off at $f_{RF} \approx 1/(2πτ_s)$. The spin imbalance lifetime is relatively constant in the accessible ranges of temperatures, with perhaps a slight increase with increasing magnetic field. Taking into account sample thickness effects, $τ_s$ is consistent with previous measurements and of the order of the electron-electron scattering time $τ_{ee}$. Our data are qualitatively well-described by a theoretical model taking into account all quasiparticle tunnelling processes from a normal metal into a superconductor.

Their action commute with the solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation obtained by reducing the solutions of the tetrahedron equation associated with the modular and the Fock representations of ${\mathcal A}_q$. In the former case, the commutativity is enhanced to the modular double of these quantum affine algebras.

description: The Janis-Newman algorithm is an old but very powerful tool to generate rotating solutions from static ones through a set of complex coordinate transformations. Several solutions have been derived in this way, including solutions with gauge fields. However, the transformation of the latter was so far always postulated as an ad hoc result. In this paper we propose a generalization of the procedure, extending it to the transformation of the gauge field. We also present a simplification of the algorithm due to G. Giampieri. We illustrate our prescription on the Kerr-Newman solution.

subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We present a rigorous and fully consistent $K$-theoretic framework for studying gapped topological phases of free fermions such as topological insulators. It utilises and profits from powerful techniques in operator $K$-theory. From the point of view of symmetries, especially those of time reversal, charge conjugation, and magnetic translations, operator $K$-theory is more general and natural than the commutative topological theory. Our approach is model-independent, and only the symmetry data of the dynamics, which may include information about disorder, is required. This data is completely encoded in a suitable $C^*$-superalgebra. From a representation-theoretic point of view, symmetry-compatible gapped phases are classified by the super-representation group of this symmetry algebra. Contrary to existing literature, we do not use $K$-theory to classify phases in an absolute sense, but only relative to some arbitrary reference. $K$-theory groups are better thought of as groups of obstructions between homotopy classes of gapped phases. Besides rectifying various inconsistencies in the existing literature on $K$-theory classification schemes, our treatment has conceptual simplicity in its treatment of all symmetries equally. The Periodic Table of Kitaev is exhibited as a special case within our framework, and we prove that the phenomena of periodicity and dimension shifts are robust against disorder and magnetic fields.

Critical wetting, first-order wetting and prewetting phase transitions in binary mixtures of Bose-Einstein condensates

description: An ultralow-temperature binary mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates adsorbed at an optical wall can undergo a wetting phase transition in which one of the species excludes the other from contact with the wall. Interestingly, while hard-wall boundary conditions entail the wetting transition to be of first order, using Gross-Pitaevskii theory we show that first-order wetting as well as critical wetting can occur when a realistic exponential optical wall potential (evanescent wave) with a finite turn-on length $λ$ is assumed. The relevant surface excess energies are computed in an expansion in $λ/ξ_i$, where $ξ_i$ is the healing length of condensate $i$. Experimentally, the wetting transition may best be approached by varying the interspecies scattering length $a_{12}$ using Feshbach resonances. In the hard-wall limit, $λ\rightarrow 0$, exact results are derived for the prewetting and first-order wetting phase boundaries.

description: Quantum illumination is a quantum-optical sensing technique in which an entangled source is exploited to improve the detection of a low-reflectivity object that is immersed in a bright thermal background. Here we describe and analyze a system for applying this technique at microwave frequencies, a more appropriate spectral region for target detection than the optical, due to the naturally-occurring bright thermal background in the microwave regime. We use an electro-optomechanical converter to entangle microwave signal and optical idler fields, with the former being sent to probe the target region and the latter being retained at the source. The microwave radiation collected from the target region is then phase conjugated and upconverted into an optical field that is combined with the retained idler in a joint-detection quantum measurement. The error probability of this microwave quantum-illumination system, or quantum radar, is shown to be superior to that of any classical microwave radar of equal transmitted energy.

Benchmarks against other control schemes, performed on generic Hamiltonians and on Bose-Hubbard systems, establish the competitiveness of the method. As a concrete application of the control of mesoscopic atomic samples in optical lattices we demonstrate the near deterministic preparation of Schrödinger cat states of all atoms residing on either the odd or the even sites.

description: We investigate the kinematics of stars in the mid-plane of the Milky Way on scales between 25 pc and 10 kpc with data from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE), the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE), and the Geneva-Copenhagen Survey (GCS). Using red-clump stars in APOGEE, we determine the large-scale line-of-sight velocity field out to 5 kpc from the Sun in (0.75 kpc)^2 bins. The solar motion V_{sun-c} with respect to the circular velocity V_c is the largest contribution to the power on large scales after subtracting an axisymmetric rotation field; we determine the solar motion by minimizing the large-scale power to be V_{sun-c} = 24+/-1 (ran.)+/-2 (syst [V_c])+/-5 (syst. [large-scale]) km/s, where the systematic uncertainty is due to (a) a conservative 20 km/s uncertainty in V_c and (b) the estimated power on unobserved larger scales. Combining the APOGEE peculiar-velocity field with red-clump stars in RAVE out to 2 kpc from the Sun and with local GCS stars, we determine the power spectrum of residual velocity fluctuations in the Milky Way's disk on scales between 0.2/kpc < k < 40/kpc. Most of the power is contained in a broad peak between 0.2/kpc < k < 0.9/kpc. We investigate the expected power spectrum for various non-axisymmetric perturbations and demonstrate that the central bar with commonly used parameters but of relatively high mass can explain the bulk of velocity fluctuations in the plane of the Galactic disk near the Sun. Streaming motions ~10 km/s on >~3 kpc scales in the Milky Way are in good agreement with observations of external galaxies and directly explain why local determinations of the solar motion are inconsistent with global measurements.

Simultaneous control of volumetric light distribution through turbid media using real-time three-dimensional optoacoustic feedback

description: Focusing light through turbid media presents a highly fascinating challenge in modern biophotonics. The unique capability of optoacoustics for high resolution imaging of light absorption contrast in deep tissues can provide a natural and efficient feedback to control light delivery in scattering medium. While basic feasibility of using optoacoustic readings as a feedback mechanism for wavefront shaping has been recently reported, the suggested approaches may require long acquisition times making them challenging to be translated into realistic tissue environments. In an attempt to significantly accelerate dynamic wavefront shaping capabilities, we present here a feedback-based approach using real-time three-dimensional optoacoustic imaging assisted with genetic-algorithm-based optimization. The new technique offers robust performance in the presence of noisy measurements and can simultaneously control the scattered wave field in an entire volumetric region.

description: To evidence multimode spatial entanglement of spontaneous down-conversion, detector arrays allow a full field measurement, without any a priori selection of the paired photons. We show by comparing results of the recent literature that electron-multiplying CCD (EMCCD) cameras allow, in the present state of technology, the detection of quantum correlations with the best signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), while intensified CCD (ICCD) cameras allow at best to identify pairs. The SNR appears to be proportional to the square root of the number of coherence cells in each image, or Schmidt number. Then, corrected estimates are derived for extended coherence cells and not very low and not space-stationary photon fluxes. Finally, experimental measurements of the SNR confirm our model.

description: Defining an optimal protection strategy against viruses, spam propagation or any other kind of contamination process is an important feature for designing new networks and architectures. In this work, we consider decentralized optimal protection strategies when a virus is propagating over a network through a SIS epidemic process. We assume that each node in the network can fully protect itself from infection at a constant cost, or the node can use recovery software, once it is infected. We model our system using a game theoretic framework and find pure, mixed equilibria, and the Price of Anarchy (PoA) in several network topologies. Further, we propose both a decentralized algorithm and an iterative procedure to compute a pure equilibrium in the general case of a multiple communities network. Finally, we evaluate the algorithms and give numerical illustrations of all our results.

description: In any theory satisfying the no-signaling principle correlations generated among spatially separated parties in a Bell-type experiment are subject to certain constraints known as monogamy relations. Recently, in the context of the black hole information loss problem it was suggested that these monogamy relations might be violated. This in turn implies that correlations arising in such a scenario must violate the no-signaling principle and hence can be used to send classical information between parties. Here, we study the amount of information that can be sent using such correlations. To this aim, we first provide a framework associating them with classical channels whose capacities are then used to quantify the usefulness of these correlations in sending information. Finally, we determine the minimal amount of information that can be sent using signaling correlations violating the monogamy relation associated to the chained Bell inequalities.

Long-range two-particle correlations of strange hadrons with charged particles in pPb and PbPb collisions at LHC energies

description: Measurements of two-particle angular correlations between an identified strange hadron (K0S or Lambda/anti-Lambda) and a charged particle, emitted in pPb collisions, are presented over a wide range in pseudorapidity and full azimuth. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 35 inverse nanobarns, were collected at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy (sqrt(s[NN])) of 5.02 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. The results are compared to semi-peripheral PbPb collision data at sqrt(s[NN]) = 2.76 TeV, covering similar charged-particle multiplicities in the events. The observed azimuthal correlations at large relative pseudorapidity are used to extract the second-order (v[2]) and third-order (v[3]) anisotropy harmonics of K0S and Lambda/anti-Lambda particles. These quantities are studied as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity in the event and the transverse momentum of the particles. For high-multiplicity pPb events, a clear particle species dependence of v[2] and v[3] is observed. For pt < 2 GeV, the v[2] and v[3] values of K0S particles are larger than those of Lambda/anti-Lambda particles at the same pt. This splitting effect between two particle species is found to be stronger in pPb than in PbPb collisions in the same multiplicity range. When divided by the number of constituent quarks and compared at the same transverse kinetic energy per quark, both v[2] and v[3] for K0S particles are observed to be consistent with those for Lambda/anti-Lambda particles at the 10% level in pPb collisions. This consistency extends over a wide range of particle transverse kinetic energy and event multiplicities.

Reforms and Legitimacy

Publisher: name: Open Science Framework

Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: Research suggests that authoritarian regimes may gain international legitimacy when they undertake reforms. For example, according to recent studies, Saudi Arabia and Jordan promote women’s empowerment in part to signal modernity and Western-friendliness to international audiences, potentially obviating the need to undertake deeper political reform (e.g., Al-Rasheed 2013; Bush 2019; Tripp 2019). Yet such hypotheses so far have not been tested, and we do not know if and to what extent authoritarian regimes gain support internationally due to limited reform efforts. This project helps fill this gap. An earlier study conducted by the author(s) asked a nationally representative sample of US respondents to imagine a very conservative country in the Middle East that was not a democracy, randomly assigned to be undertaking reform (or a control group in which no reforms were mentioned). A variety of reforms based on real reforms undertaken in recent years by authoritarian countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) were included. Results suggested that reforms generally do enhance legitimacy. To follow up on these results, the current study uses the same reform treatments combined with a conjoint experiment to vary theoretically relevant background conditions (such as wealth, geostrategic connections, and social conservatism), and tests additional hypotheses described below.

description: The correlation length plays a pivotal role in finite-size scaling and hyperscaling at continuous phase transitions. Below the upper critical dimension, where the correlation length is proportional to the system length, both finite-size scaling and hyperscaling take conventional forms. Above the upper critical dimension these forms break down and a new scaling scenario appears. Here we investigate this scaling behaviour in one-dimensional Ising ferromagnets with long-range interactions. We show that the correlation length scales as a non-trivial power of the linear system size and investigate the scaling forms. For interactions of sufficiently long range, the disparity between the correlation length and the system length can be made arbitrarily large, while maintaining the new scaling scenarios. We also investigate the behavior of the correlation function above the upper critical dimension and the modifications imposed by the new scaling scenario onto the associated Fisher relation.

description: This paper surveys eight classes of polynomials associated with $A$-type and $BC$-type root systems: Jack, Jacobi, Macdonald and Koornwinder polynomials and interpolation (or shifted) Jack and Macdonald polynomials and their $BC$-type extensions. Among these the $BC$-type interpolation Jack polynomials were probably unobserved until now. Much emphasis is put on combinatorial formulas and binomial formulas for (most of) these polynomials. Possibly new results derived from these formulas are a limit from Koornwinder to Macdonald polynomials, an explicit formula for Koornwinder polynomials in two variables, and a combinatorial expression for the coefficients of the expansion of $BC$-type Jacobi polynomials in terms of Jack polynomials which is different from Macdonald's combinatorial expression. For these last coefficients in the two-variable case the explicit expression in Koornwinder & Sprinkhuizen (1978) is now obtained in a quite different way.

description: Pepsin-induced protein coagulation occurs in the gastric environment when the milk pH is above the isoelectric point of casein proteins. In this study, the effect of milk temperature (4–48 °C) on the hydrolysis of κ-casein by pepsin and the consequent protein coagulation was studied at pH 6.0 for 120 min. Quantitative determination of the released para-κ-casein showed that both the κ-casein hydrolysis reaction rate constant and the pepsin denaturation rate constant increased with an increase in temperature. The temperature coefficient (Q10) of the specific hydrolysis of κ-casein was calculated to be ∼1.95. The coagulation process was investigated by the evolution of the storage modulus (Gʹ). At higher temperature, the milk coagulated faster but had a lower firming rate and Gʹmax with larger aggregates and voids were observed. The digestion behavior of the milk ingested at 4 °C, 37 °C, or 50 °C was investigated for 240 min in a human gastric simulator, in which the milk temperature increased or decreased to 37 °C (body temperature) over ∼ 60 min. The coagulation of the 4 °C milk was slower than for the 37 °C and 50 °C milk. The curd obtained from the 4 °C milk had a looser and softer structure with a significantly higher moisture content at the initial stage of digestion (20 min) which, in turn, facilitated the breakdown and hydrolysis of the caseins by pepsin. During the digestion, the curd structure became more cohesive, along with a decrease in moisture content. The knowledge gained from this study provides insight into the effect of temperature on the kinetics of pepsin-induced milk coagulation and the consequent digestion behavior.

description: We consider a quasi one-dimensional quantum dot composed of two Coulombically interacting electrons confined in a Gaussian trap. Apart from bound states, the system exhibits resonances that are related to the autoionization process. Employing the complex-coordinate rotation method, we determine the resonance widths and energies and discuss their dependence on the longitudinal confinement potential and the lateral radius of the quantum dot. The stability properties of the system are discussed.

description: The thermal instanton determinant for the gauge group $SU(2)$ can be reduced to a form involving two simple functions. Various boundary conditions can easily incorporated.

title: Meta-analysis on the effects of psychedelics- and MDMA-assisted therapy in clinical settings
Creators: name: Leudesdorff, Maria Theresa

description: Die medizinische Erforschung von Psychedelica und Entactogenen lebt im 21. Jahrhundert wieder auf, nachdem Studien an diesen Substanzen in den 1970er Jahren großflächig zum Erliegen kamen. Diese Meta-Analyse befasst sich mit der Behandlung psychischer Störungen durch Psychedelica- und MDMA- unterstütze Therapie im klinisch-therapeutischen Kontext. Hierfür wurden 17 Studien mit insgesamt 347 PatientInnen ausgewertet. Die Prä-Post Effektstärke von Hedge’s g = -1.252 mit SE = 0.117, p = 0.0000 und 95% CIs [-1.489, -1.024] weist auf signifikante Symptomreduktionen nach der Behandlung hin. Die größten Symptomreduktionen zeigten sich in Ayahuasca- (g = -2.288; SE = 0.292) und Depressions-Studien (g = -1,643; SE = 0.235). Hohe loss to follow-up Werte und mögliche Erwartungseffekte in manchen der eingeschlossenen Studien limitieren die Aussagekraft dieser Ergebnisse. Obwohl sich auf Basis der derzeit veröffentlichten Studien keine Aussage über die großflächige Anwendung dieser Substanzen im klinischen Kontext treffen lässt, ist die beobachtete Symptomreduktion vielversprechend, wenn Risiken und Chancen der Behandlung vorsichtig gegeneinander abgewogen werden. PatientInnen, die nicht auf derzeit angewendete Pharmakotherapien ansprechen, könnten als erstes von diesen Behandlungsmethoden profitieren.
description: In the past two decades, medical research on psychedelic and entactogen compounds has re-emerged. The so-called renaissance of psychedelic sciences continues to move forward after its abandonment in the 1970s. This meta-analysis focuses on the use of psychedelics and MDMA in clinical settings as a treatment for mental disorders. 17 studies with a total number of 347 participants were included and analysed at 6-month follow-up. The pre to post summary effect across studies was estimated as Hedge’s g = -1.252 with an SE = 0.117, p = 0.0000 and 95% CIs of [-1.489, -1.024], and indicates large symptom reduction after treatment. The highest reductions were observed in ayahuasca (g = -2.288; SE = 0.292) and depression (g = -1,643; SE = 0.235) studies. However, high loss to follow-up rates of up to 50% and lack of blinding in some primary studies introduces risk of bias and limits the certainty of findings. Even though the nature of published studies does not allow for general conclusions on the broad application of these treatments, the symptom relief after psychedelic and entactogen therapy holds promise when risks and benefits are carefully weighted. Patients who fail to respond to currently available pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy could be the first to benefit from these novel treatment options.

Furthermore, if $u$ is nonflat then $u_1$ can be chosen to have any prescribed flux and to be complete.

description: We demonstrate a scheme to generate noncoherent and coherent correlations, i.e., a tunable degree of entanglement, between degrees of freedom of a single photon. Its nature is analogous to the tuning of the purity (first-order coherence) of a single photon forming part of a two-photon state by tailoring the correlations between the paired photons. Therefore, well-known tools such as the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) Bell-like inequality can also be used to characterize entanglement between degrees of freedom. More specifically, CHSH inequality tests are performed, making use of the polarization and the spatial shape of a single photon. The four modes required are two polarization modes and two spatial modes with different orbital angular momentum.
