description: Στην σύγχρονη εποχή, λόγω της τάσης εγκατάστασης του πληθυσμού στα μεγάλα αστικά κέντρα, προκύπτει η ανάγκη ανάπτυξης, μελέτης και εξυγχρονισμού των μέσων μαζικής μεταφοράς. Κρίνοντας από τα παραπάνω διαπιστώνεται ότι ο τομέας των μεταφορών θεωρείται ένας από τους σημαντικότερους τομείς στον σχεδιασμό και στην ανάπτυξη των πόλεων. Το σύστημα του Μετρό είναι από τους δημοφιλέστερος τρόπους μεταφοράς καθώς καλύπτει σε μεγάλο βαθμό τις ανάγκες μετακίνησης του πληθυσμού. Η πόλη της Αθήνας με περισσότερο από 3.000.000 πληθυσμό αποτελεί μία από τις πιο πυκνοκατοικημένες πόλεις της Ευρώπης συνεπώς η εξέταση της αποτελεί μοντέλο αναφοράς για πολλές πόλεις στον κόσμο. Το δίκτυο των μέσων μαζικής μεταφοράς που επεκτείνεται στο λεκανοπέδιο Αττικής καλύπτει ένα μεγάλο μέρος των καθημερινών μετακινήσεων του πληθυσμού. Στην παρούσα μελέτη γίνεται ανάλυση του δικτύου του Μετρό στο λεκανοπέδιο Αττικής. Με την βοήθεια του συστήματος «έξυπνου» ηλεκτρονικού εισιτηρίου, το οποίο είναι σε πλήρη λειτουργία από τον Νοέμβριο του 2017, εξάγονται δεδομένα που βοηθούν να δημιουργηθούν αναφορές σχετικά με την κίνηση του επιβατικού κοινού. Τα δεδομένα αυτά αναλύονται με τη χρήση της μεθόδου πολλαπλής γραμμικής παλινδρόμησης σχετικά με 4 σημαντικούς παράγοντες που επηρεάζουν την επισκεψιμότητα στους σταθμούς. Οι 4 παράγοντες αφορούν την πυκνότητα πληθυσμού, την τοποθεσία των σταθμών, τη συνδεσιμότητα τους και ανταποκρίσεις τους με τις λεωφορειακές γραμμές. Τελικά εξάγονται συμπεράσματα σχετικά με τη χρήση των παράμετρών όσον αφορά το σχεδιασμό των σταθμών μετρό και τις ανάγκες μετακίνησης.

description: Considering the growing importance of Corporate Social responsibility (CSR) among various stakeholders, the present study investigates the association between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and CEO (Chief Executive Officer) dismissals. Based on a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2019, this research study used a random effect logistic model. The findings of the study indicate that total CSR is positively associated with CEO dismissals. In further analysis, we decompose CSR and show that average CSR is negatively linked with CEO dismissals, indicating that CEOs mitigate career concerns by maintaining an optimal range of CSR investment. Moreover, above-average CSR is positively linked with CEO dismissals, indicating that when CSR investments deviate from their optimal range, CEOs’ risk of dismissal increases. Finally, we have validated our findings and show a U-shaped link between CSR and CEO dismissals. This research is helpful for policymakers in making CSR-related decisions.

description: Academic preparedness, executive function abilities, and positive relationships with teachers have each been shown to be uniquely important for school readiness and success in the early elementary grades. Few studies, however, have examined the joint influence of these readiness variables on early school outcomes. Using data from a prospective longitudinal sample of 1292 children and families in predominantly low-income and rural communities, we found that executive function at child age 48 months and a higher quality relationship with the kindergarten teacher each uniquely moderated the effect of math ability in preschool on math ability at the end of kindergarten. This effect was seen for math ability as measured by the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study-Kindergarten (ECLS-K) mathematics assessment battery but not the Woodcock-Johnson III Tests of Achievement Applied Problems subtest. For children with lower math ability in preschool as assessed by the ECLS-K Math battery, higher executive function abilities and a more positive relationship with the kindergarten teacher were each associated with a higher than expected level of math ability in kindergarten. Conversely, lowest levels of math ability in kindergarten were observed among children with low math ability in preschool and poor executive function or a less positive relationship with the kindergarten teacher.
Longitudinal dynamics between alcohol use, mood, and functioning in bipolar disorder

description: Alcohol use disorders and problematic drinking are overrepresented in individuals with bipolar disorder (BD) compared with the general population. Co-occurring alcohol use disorder and bipolar disorder (BD+AUD) is associated with a host of negative outcomes including less time to remission, greater risk of rapid cycling, number of hospitalizations, and treatment nonadherence. The extant literature has largely concentrated on disentangling whether there are differences in illness trajectory amongst those who had BD onset first followed by AUD or vice versa. However, few studies to our knowledge have examined the temporal associations between dimensional measures of alcohol use, mood symptoms, and their cumulative impact on functioning across the course of bipolar disorder. Identifying temporal associations between alcohol use, mood, and functioning is essential for improved care of individuals with BD+AUD. For example, does a within-person change in alcohol use tend to precipitate a change in depressive or manic symptoms? Does a within-person change in depressive or manic symptoms tend precipitate a change in alcohol use (e.g., self-medication model)? Or, for some people is both true indicating a vicious cycle? Leverage the Prechter Longitudinal Study of Bipolar Disorder, we aim to answer these questions: 1) What are the overall temporal associations between alcohol use and mood in individuals across the bipolar spectrum, 2) Can subgroups of individuals can be identifyied by their temporal associations of alcohol use, and 3) what is the effect of these temporal associations on life functioning over time? Individuals in the Prechter Longitudinal Study completed dimensional measures of alcohol use (AUDIT) and social and occupational functioning (LFQ) as well as clinician rated symptom scales (YMRS, HDRS) every 6 months over the course of participation.

The Cost of Majority-Party Bias: Amending Activity under Structured Rules

description: All major legislation in the House necessitates a special rule from the Rules Committee before it can be brought to the chamber floor. These rules often strictly limit floor amendments to bills considered by the House. Scholars of political parties have argued that the House majority party can bias policy output away from the floor median through its usage of restrictive rules. In this article, we argue that in order to secure the passage of restrictive rules, the majority often makes concessions to centrist legislators through the amending process. We examine this theory using a newly collected data set that includes all amendments considered by the Rules Committee during the construction of structured rules in the 109th, 110th, and 111th Congresses (2005–2010). Our results are mixed, but they do suggest that moderate members of the majority party often receive concessions via amendments for their support of the majority party's agenda-setting regime.

description: Compton scattering of twisted photons is investigated within a non-relativistic framework using first-order perturbation theory. We formulate the problem in the density matrix theory, which enables one to gain new insights into scattering processes of twisted particles by exploiting the symmetries of the system. In particular, we analyze how the angular distribution and polarization of the scattered photons are affected by the parameters of the initial beam such as the opening angle and the projection of orbital angular momentum. We present analytical and numerical results for the angular distribution and the polarization of Compton scattered photons for initially twisted light and compare them with the standard case of plane-wave light.

description: We formulate new integration rules for one-loop scattering equations analogous to those at tree-level, and test them in a number of non-trivial cases for amplitudes in scalar $ϕ^3$-theory. This formalism greatly facilitates the evaluation of amplitudes in the CHY representation at one-loop order, without the need to explicitly sum over the solutions to the loop-level scattering equations.

Minimal Vector-like leptonic Dark Matter and Signatures at the LHC

description: We propose a minimal vector-like leptonic dark matter (DM) with renormalisable interaction in a beyond the Standard Model (SM) scenario, where the SM is augmented with a vector-like doublet and a singlet leptons. The additional fermions are odd under a discrete $Z_2$ symmetry, while the rest of the SM particles are singlets, and thus providing stability to the DM. In this scenario, we show that, the DM emerges as an admixture of the neutral component of the vector-like doublet and the singlet leptons. The singlet-doublet mixing ($\sin θ$) plays a crucial role in yielding the correct relic density as well as in obtaining null direct DM search results through an interplay of interactions via $Z$ and Higgs mediation. The mixing is also strongly constrained from the invisible Z and Higgs decay width. We found that the correct relic abundance of DM can be obtained in a large region of parameter space for DM-mass larger than $ M_Z/2$ and $\sin θ\le 0.1$. The details of model phenomenology with collider signatures at the Large hadron Collider (LHC) are discussed. In particular, we show that for $\sin θ\le 0.01$, the charged companion of the DM can give rise to an observable displaced vertex signature, marking a significant departure from other fermionic DM scenarios, while keeping the relic abundance intact.
description: 22 pages, 19 figures, 5 tables; the manuscript has undergone a significant modification in parameter space scan plots, for example a summary of constraints have been added in one figure and accordingly discussions added and altered in the text; singlet-doublet mixing and its importance is highlighted.

description: We discuss the impact of non-standard neutrino matter interactions (NSI) in propagation on the determination of CP phase in the context of the long baseline accelerator experiments such as Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). DUNE will mainly address the issue of CP violation in the leptonic sector. Here we study the role of NSI and its impact on the question of observing the CP violation signal at DUNE. We consider two scenarios of oscillation with three active neutrinos in absence and presence of NSI. We elucidate the importance of ruling out subdominant new physics effects introduced by NSI in inferring CP violation signal at DUNE by considering NSI terms collectively as well as by exploiting the non-trivial interplay of moduli and phases of the NSI terms. We demonstrate the existence of NSI-SI degeneracies which need to be eliminated in reliable manner in order to make conclusive statements about the CP phase.

description: Data reconciliation (DR) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) are two popular data analysis techniques in process industries. Data reconciliation is used to obtain accurate and consistent estimates of variables and parameters from erroneous measurements. PCA is primarily used as a method for reducing the dimensionality of high dimensional data and as a preprocessing technique for denoising measurements. These techniques have been developed and deployed independently of each other. The primary purpose of this article is to elucidate the close relationship between these two seemingly disparate techniques. This leads to a unified framework for applying PCA and DR. Further, we show how the two techniques can be deployed together in a collaborative and consistent manner to process data. The framework has been extended to deal with partially measured systems and to incorporate partial knowledge available about the process model.

description: Cold atmospheric pressure plasmas are used for surface decontamination or disinfection, e.g. in clinical settings. Protein aggregation has been shown to significantly contribute to the antibacterial mechanisms of plasma. To investigate the potential role of the redox-activated zinc-binding chaperone Hsp33 in preventing protein aggregation and thus mediating plasma resistance, we compared the plasma sensitivity of wild-type E. coli to that of an hslO deletion mutant lacking Hsp33 as well as an over-producing strain. Over-production of Hsp33 increased plasma survival rates above wild-type levels. Hsp33 was previously shown to be activated by plasma in vitro. For the PlasmaDerm source applied in dermatology, reversible activation of Hsp33 was confirmed. Thiol oxidation and Hsp33 unfolding, both crucial for Hsp33 activation, occurred during plasma treatment. After prolonged plasma exposure, however, unspecific protein oxidation was detected, the ability of Hsp33 to bind zinc ions was decreased without direct modifications of the zinc-binding motif, and the protein was inactivated. To identify chemical species of potential relevance for plasma-induced Hsp33 activation, reactive oxygen species were tested for their ability to activate Hsp33 in vitro. Superoxide, singlet oxygen and potentially atomic oxygen activate Hsp33, while no evidence was found for activation by ozone, peroxynitrite or hydroxyl radicals.

description: Despite the exciting recent research on perovskite based solar cells, the design space for further optimization and the practical limits of efficiency are not well known in the community. In this manuscript, we address these aspects through theoretical calculations and detailed numerical simulations. Here, we first provide the detailed balance limit efficiency in the presence of radiative and Auger recombination. Then, using coupled optical and carrier transport simulations, we identify the physical mechanisms that contribute towards bias dependent carrier collection, and hence low fill factors of current perovskite based solar cells. Curiously, we find that while Auger recombination is not a dominant factor at the detailed balance limit, it plays a significant role in device level implementations. Surprisingly, our device designs indicate that it is indeed possible to achieve efficiency and fill factor greater than 25% and 85%, respectively - even in the presence of Auger recombination.

description: Here, we present a search, using KamLAND, a kiloton-scale anti-neutrino detector, for low-energy anti-neutrino events that were coincident with the gravitational-wave (GW) events GW150914 and GW151226, and the candidate event LVT151012. We find no inverse beta-decay neutrino events within ±500 s of either GW signal. This non-detection is used to constrain the electron anti-neutrino fluence and the total integrated luminosity of the astrophysical sources.

description: We show that equilibria of a sequential semi-anonymous nonatomic game (SSNG) can be adopted by players in corresponding large but finite dynamic games to achieve near-equilibrium payoffs. Such equilibria in the form of random state-to-action rules are parsimonious in form and easy to execute, as they are both oblivious of past history and blind to other players' present states. Our transient results can be extended to a stationary case, where the finite counterparts are special discounted stochastic games. The kind of equilibria we adopt for SSNG are similar to distributional equilibria that are well understood in literature, and they themselves are shown to exist.

description: The Kepler mission has revealed a great diversity of planetary systems and architectures, but most of the planets discovered by Kepler orbit faint stars. Using new data from the K2 mission, we present the discovery of a five planet system transiting a bright (V = 8.9, K = 7.7) star called HIP 41378. HIP 41378 is a slightly metal-poor late F-type star with moderate rotation (v sin(i) = 7 km/s) and lies at a distance of 116 +/- 18 from Earth. We find that HIP 41378 hosts two sub-Neptune sized planets orbiting 3.5% outside a 2:1 period commensurability in 15.6 and 31.7 day orbits. In addition, we detect three planets which each transit once during the 75 days spanned by K2 observations. One planet is Neptune sized in a likely ~160 day orbit, one is sub-Saturn sized likely in a ~130 day orbit, and one is a Jupiter sized planet in a likely ~1 year orbit. We show that these estimates for the orbital periods can be made more precise by taking into account dynamical stability considerations. We also calculate the distribution of stellar reflex velocities expected for this system, and show that it provides a good target for future radial velocity observations. If a precise orbital period can be determined for the outer Jovian planet through future observations, it will be an excellent candidate for follow-up transit observations to study its atmosphere and measure its oblateness.

description: Abstract: Aggression is one of the most common factors the sports persons experience during the game. It is both positive and negative. When it becomes excessive leads to be out of the game or some physical injury. But within a limit the aggression may improve the game or conquering the opponent. The researcher’s main objective of this study is to find out the aggression in terms of physical aggression, verbal aggression and hostility of the college level players of the Sambalpur University. In the current study the researcher has selected different colleges under Sambalpur University. Out of the selected colleges 309 sports players have been selected as the sample of the study. Descriptive statistics (such as Mean, Standard deviation, Skewness and Kurtosis) were used for understanding the characteristics of the data. Chi Square effective value has also been used data analysis. All the statistical analysis was done by using SPSSV24. The level of significance was fixed at 0.05 levels.

description: The spin-extended semiclassical chiral fermion (we call the S-model), which had been used to derive the twisted Lorentz symmetry of the "spin-enslaved" chiral fermion (we call the c-model) is equivalent to the latter in the free case, however coupling to an external electromagnetic field yields nonequivalent systems. The difference is highlighted by the inconsistency of spin enslavement within the spin-extended framework. The S-model exhibits nevertheless similar though slightly different anomalous properties as the usual c-model does. The natural Poincaré symmetry of the free model remains unbroken if the Pfaffian invariant vanishes, i.e., when the electric and magnetic fields are orthogonal, ${\bf E}\cdot{\bf B}=0$, as in the Hall effect.

description: The Smith Cloud (SC) is a gaseous high-velocity cloud (HVC) in an advanced state of accretion, only 2.9 kpc below the Galactic plane and due to impact the disk in ≈27 Myr. It is unique among HVCs in having a known distance (12.4 ± 1.3 kpc) and a well-constrained 3D velocity (296 km s−1), but its origin has long remained a mystery. Here we present the first absorption-line measurements of its metallicity, using Hubble Space Telescope/COS UV spectra of three active galactic nuclei lying behind the Cloud together with Green Bank Telescope 21 cm spectra of the same directions. Using Voigt-profile fitting of the S ii λλ1250, 1253, 1259 triplet together with ionization corrections derived from photoionization modeling, we derive the sulfur abundance in each direction; a weighted average of the three measurements gives [S/H] = −0.28 ± 0.14, or solar metallicity. The finding that the SC is metal-enriched lends support to scenarios where it represents recycled Galactic material, rather than the remnant of a dwarf galaxy or accreting intergalactic gas. The metallicity and trajectory of the Cloud are both indicative of an origin in the outer disk. However, its large mass and prograde kinematics remain to be fully explained. If the cloud has accreted cooling gas from the corona during its fountain trajectory, as predicted in recent theoretical work, its current mass would be higher than its launch mass, alleviating the mass concern.

Self-driving Telescope Schedules: A Framework for Training RL Agents based on Telescope Data
Creators: name: Terranova, Franco
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Reinforcement Learning (RL) is becoming one of the most effective paradigms of Machine Learning for training autonomous systems.
 In the context of astronomical observational campaigns, this paradigm can be used for training autonomous telescopes able to optimize sequential schedules based on a given scientific reward, avoiding the intervention of manual optimization which may result in suboptimal policies in terms of performance due to the complexity of the problem.
 This work wants to present a Python software framework under development that can be used to train RL algorithms on any offline dataset containing simulated or real interactions between a telescope and the sky. The dataset should contain a discrete set of sites of the sky to be visited, and RL algorithms will optimize the schedule of these sites, building a telescope able to change its pointing, site to site, in order to maximize a cumulative reward based on some observation variables as input included in the dataset.
 Given a dataset respecting a certain predefined format required by the framework and some experiment configurations, a training buffer will adapt it for acting as an environment, and several RL algorithms for discrete action spaces will be supported, all based on the PTAN (PyTorch AgentNet) library.
 Different well-known features are enabled by the framework, including the holdout method and K-Fold cross-validation with splitting strategies adapted for Modified Julian Days, data preprocessing strategies such as normalization, observation space reduction, and missing values handling.
 Rendering options are available to visualize autonomous telescope decisions through time ensuring interpretability and visualization metrics to monitor performances.
 Several other features are embedded in the framework, such as hyperparameters optimization based on the Optuna library, seed control, and multiple parallel training environments.
 The framework will enable the monitoring of multiple metrics throughout the training of the RL agent, and a dedicated testing module will utilize a predefined metric that can be used for the purpose of comparing agents and visualizing the transitions determined within the schedule of each of them.
title: Arrangement of Nash Equilibria in Dynamic Games by Coalition Formation

description: The broadly accepted equilibrium concept for non-cooperative games in extensive form draws on subgame perfectness. Existence of such an equilibrium is assured under weak assumptions. But in most situations many other Nash Equilibria may exist. Hence, there must be some tacit agreement of groups of players, how the decision process should be formed. The present paper concerns an investigation of such equilibria under the aspect of robustness against hidden or intended collaboration between players. We are aware that the concept of Nash equilibrium is based on the assumption that no interaction between players takes place. Nevertheless, some Nash Equilibria, and even a subgame perfect equilibrium, may cause disadvantages for some players. If they try to avoid unacceptable results, a minimum of coordination is required to arrange an equilibrium.
Effect of Ultrahigh Stiffness of Defective Graphene from Atomistic Point of View

description: Well-known effect of mechanical stiffness degradation under the influence of point defects in macroscopic solids can be controversially reversed in the case of low-dimensional materials. Using atomistic simulation, we showed here that a single-layered graphene film can be sufficiently stiffened by monovacancy defects at a tiny concentration. Our results correspond well with recent experimental data and suggest that the effect of mechanical stiffness augmentation is mainly originated from specific bonds distribution in the surrounded monovacancy defects regions. We showed that such unusual mechanical response is the feature of presence of specifically monovacancies, whereas other types of point defects such as divacancy, 555-777 and Stone-Wales defects, lead to the ordinary degradation of the graphene mechanical stiffness.

description: We report the discovery of two super-Earth-sized planets transiting the bright (V = 8.94, K = 7.07) nearby late G-dwarf HD 3167, using data collected by the K2 mission. The inner planet, HD 3167 b, has a radius of 1.6 R {sub ⊕} and an ultra-short orbital period of only 0.96 days. The outer planet, HD 3167 c, has a radius of 2.9 R {sub ⊕} and orbits its host star every 29.85 days. At a distance of just 45.8 ± 2.2 pc, HD 3167 is one of the closest and brightest stars hosting multiple transiting planets, making HD 3167 b and c well suited for follow-up observations. The star is chromospherically inactive with low rotational line-broadening, ideal for radial velocity observations to measure the planets’ masses. The outer planet is large enough that it likely has a thick gaseous envelope that could be studied via transmission spectroscopy. Planets transiting bright, nearby stars like HD 3167 are valuable objects to study leading up to the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope .

description: Today, enterprises in the world faced to prosperities but within threatened and opportunities. Many researchers described absorptive capacity as crucial capability. This capability enables enterprises to recognize, understand, absorb, convey and utilize new external knowledge. Therefore, enterprise with higher level of absorptive capacity takes advantage to access higher level of new external knowledge. This phenomenon could lead enterprise to innovation, performance, flexibility or competitive advantage by lead form different and variety antecedents. In past decades, many researchers studied about different aspects as determinants of absorptive capacity, but in this subject still insight is limited and there are gap between absorptive capacity and other areas, which may have positive or negative effect on this capability. This paper highlighted last research, domain, recognize and significance of this capability as necessity construction in enterprises.

description: Within the framework of Dyson-Schwinger equations (DSEs), we discuss the chiral phase transition of QCD with a chiral chemical potential $μ_5$ as an additional scale. We focus especially on the issues related to the widely accepted as well as interested critical end point (CEP). With the help of a scalar susceptibility, we find that there might be no CEP$_5$ in the $T-μ_5$ plane, and the phase transition in the $T-μ_5$ plane might be totally crossover when $μ<50$ MeV, which has apparent consistency with the Lattice QCD calculation. Our study may also provide some useful hints to some other studies related to $μ_5$.
