description: Computing the distinct features from input data, before the classification, is a part of complexity to the methods of Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) which deals with modulation classification was a pattern recognition problem. Although the algorithms that focus on MultiLevel Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (M-QAM) which underneath different channel scenarios was well detailed. A search of the literature revealed indicates that few studies were done on the classification of high order M-QAM modulation schemes like128-QAM, 256-QAM, 512-QAM and1024-QAM. This work is focusing on the investigation of the powerful capability of the natural logarithmic properties and the possibility of extracting Higher-Order Cumulant's (HOC) features from input data received raw. The HOC signals were extracted under Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel with four effective parameters which were defined to distinguished the types of modulation from the set; 4-QAM~1024-QAM. This approach makes the recognizer more intelligent and improves the success rate of classification. From simulation results, which was achieved under statistical models for noisy channels, manifest that recognized algorithm executes was recognizing in M-QAM, furthermore, most results were promising and showed that the logarithmic classifier works well over both AWGN and different fading channels, as well as it can achieve a reliable recognition rate even at a lower signal-to-noise ratio (less than zero), it can be considered as an Integrated Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) system in order to identify high order of M-QAM signals that applied a unique logarithmic classifier, to represents higher versatility, hence it has a superior performance via all previous works in automatic modulation identification system

description: We use computer simulations and scaling arguments to investigate statistical and structural properties of a semiflexible ribbon composed of isosceles triangles. We study two different models, one where the bending energy is calculated from the angles between the normal vectors of adjacent triangles, the second where the edges are viewed as semiflexible polymers so that the bending energy is related to the angles between the tangent vectors of next-nearest neighbor triangles. The first model can be solved exactly whereas the second is more involved. It was recently introduced by Liverpool and Golestanian Phys.Rev.Lett. 80, 405 (1998), Phys.Rev.E 62, 5488 (2000) as a model for double-stranded biopolymers such as DNA. Comparing observables such as the autocorrelation functions of the tangent vectors and the bond-director field, the probability distribution functions of the end-to-end distance, and the mean squared twist we confirm the existence of local twist correlation, but find no indications for other predicted features such as twist-stretch coupling, kinks, or oscillations in the autocorrelation function of the bond-director field.

description: Field studies were conducted twice at two sites in St. Croix, United States Virgin Islands, to determine the effectiveness of preemergence applications of bensulide and halosulfuron in transplanted watermelon. Bensulide and halosulfuron were both applied separately. Although bensulide caused up to 5% seedling stunting and halosulfuron caused up to 10% seedling stunting and discoloration, watermelon plants were fully recovered by week 8 after planting. Yields of all treatments were similar to that of untreated plots. Control of grasses like goosegrass and of broadleaf weeds like amaranthus was not found in treated plots. Weed species, weed densities and the percentage of weed control found in bensulide and halosulfuron treated plots were similar to non-treated plots. Watermelon fruits in both treated and non-treated plots had a degree of brix of 8.5, which indicates poor quality fruits.

description: The existence of cycles of the matrix maps in Fibonacci class of lattices is well established. We show that such cycles are intimately connected with the presence of interesting positional correlations among the constituent `atoms' in a one dimensional quasiperiodic lattice. We particularly address the transfer model of the classic golden mean Fibonacci chain where a six cycle of the full matrix map exists at the centre of the spectrum [Kohmoto et al, Phys. Rev. B 35, 1020 (1987)], and for which no simple physical picture has so far been provided, to the best of our knowledge. In addition, we show that our prescription leads to a determination of other energy values for a mixed model of the Fibonacci chain, for which the full matrix map may have similar cyclic behaviour. Apart from the standard transfer-model of a golden mean Fibonacci chain, we address a variant of it and the silver mean lattice, where the existence of four cycles of the matrix map is already known to exist. The underlying positional correlations for all such cases are discussed in details.

description: Bacterial wilt pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is known to infect hundreds of plant species including economically important crops such as tomato, potato, pepper and banana. The disease is widespread in tropical and subtropical areas of the world and with the globalization of agriculture, plant pathogens are frequently moved into new environments. Bacterial wilt can be disseminated via a variety of hosts including high dollar value ornamentals such as geranium, anthurium, and pothos. Most bacterial wilt strains are limited in their range by temperature; however, a concern has always been that cool tolerant strains of R. solanacearum might be introduced and spread into potato and tomato production areas in North America. Due to their potential to cause major economic damage, cool tolerant Race 3 Biovar 2 (R3B2) R. solanacearum wilt strain has been designated as a Select Agent under the U.S. Agriculture Bioterrorism Protection Act of 2002. Using molecular techniques and environmental chamber studies, we have been able to identify additional Race and Biovar populations of R. solanacearum that are cool tolerant and have the ability infect tomato under cool temperature conditions. By comparing the proteomics profile of different strains of R. solanacearum, including R3B2 and other strains able infect plants at 18°C, we have identified a number of candidate proteins with functions related to pathogenicity at low temperatures. We are currently comparing total genome sequences of cool tolerant strains to identify regions that might contribute to virulence at low temperatures.

description: There have been numerous claims that the negative perception of agriculture among secondary school students may be related to the students' lack of knowledge of the importance of agriculture and the lack of awareness of the range of career opportunities within this sector. The purpose of this study was to determine the knowledge and perception of secondary school students toward agriculture and to determine the influence of an agricultural promotion programme to broaden students' perception. In order to achieve this, a pre-test was administered among 3rd Form students in four randomly selected Secondary schools (n=100) in Trinidad and Tobago, to garner a sense of their knowledge and perception of agriculture, followed by an intervention which sought to inform them of the "New agriculture" and the various career paths in agriculture. A post-survey was done to determine changes in their perception of agriculture. Results show that the majority of students agreed that agriculture was very important but did not agree to make it a career choice. However, significant differences in perceived knowledge levels were found between the pre- and post- survey results; students perceived that most farmers are men and that farmers in Trinidad and Tobago make a lot of money. The authors suggest that future research should include a variety of agricultural knowledge assessment methods, procedures, and settings to better understand the role of increasing one's knowledge of agricultural facts and its possible effects on career decision making processes.

description: Providing electricity to the unconnected 1.1 billion people in developing countries is one of the top political priorities of the international community, yet the costs of reaching this objective are very high. The present paper examines whether the objective and the associated costs are justified by the value that target beneficiaries assign to electricity. We provide experimental evidence on the revealed willingness-to-pay (WTP) for three types of off-grid solar electricity devices. Our findings show that households are willing to dedicate a substantial part of their expenditures to electricity. In absolute terms, though, the WTP does not suffice to reach cost-covering prices. Different payment schemes, which we randomized across our sample, do not alter the WTP significantly. If universal electricity access is to be achieved, direct subsidies might be necessary. We argue that from a public policy perspective it is more rationale to promote off-grid solar than grid-based electrification because of its better cost-benefit performance.

description: GENUS CHAETOGAMMARUS MARTYNOV, 1924
 Type species
 Gammarus ischnus Stebbing, 1899 (synonym Gammarus tenellus Sars, 1896, a homonym).
 Aditional species
 Molecularly proven (Hou et al., 2014) members are: Gammarus warpachowskii G.O. Sars, 1894, Gammarus placidus G.O. Sars, 1895, and probably Gammarus behningi Martynov, 1919, Chaetogammarus pauxillus G.O. Sars, 1896, Sovinskya macrocerus Deržavin, 1948, Chaetogammarus hyrcanus Pjatakova, 1962, and Gammarus sowinskyi Behning, 1914.
 Distribution
 The natural distribution area of Chaetogammarus are the Black and Caspian seas, and their affluents. All known species are present in the Caspian, and most are found in both the Black Sea and the Caspian drainages. Some species are recent strong invaders all over Europe, and even in North America.
 Remarks
 These species are morphologically very similar to Homoeogammarus (although distinguishable by uropod III setation). As it is deeply nested within the group of Ponto-Caspian genera, we cannot fuse it with the peri-Mediterranean relatives.
 Otherwise, the monophyletic Ponto-Caspian group of genera exhibits great diversity, slightly reminiscent of the Baikalian diversity; Chaetogammarus is a branch between other gammaroid and pontogammaroid branches of the Ponto-Caspian group genera, and along with Trichogammarus and the aberrant Derzhavinella the only Ponto-Caspian gammarids without a distoposterior lobe on bases of pereopod VII.

description: Blockage and infection are common in hospitals, especially with long-term indwelling catheters, due to bacterial adhesion, colonization, and other reasons. A drug-sustained-release antibacterial coating for urinary catheters was described in this paper. Chlorhexidine (CHX) and triclosan (TCS) were encapsulated in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres and mixed with a modified chitosan hydrogel deposited on the surface of silicone rubber. The results showed that drugs can be released continuously more than 35 days. Catechol-modified chitosan (Chi-C) hydrogel was successful synthesized according to FT-IR and UV spectrophotometry, as well as 1H NMR. Furthermore, the coating with CHX and TCS presented stable antibacterial ability compared to the other groups. The results of CCK-8 revealed that the coating was cytotoxic-free and had a wide range of applications. The findings could provide a new drug sustained-release system and hydrogel-microsphere assembly for urinary catheters.
HighlightsThe microspheres presented a sustained release more than 40 days with a remarkable initial burst release.The microspheres/catechol-modified chitosan (Chi-C)/silicon rubber system emerged stable binding ability in liquid environment more than 14 days.The Chi-C/chlorhexidine (CHX)+triclosan (TCS) microspheres system presented better antimicrobial property for entire experiment period.The coated samples showed no significant difference for relative growth rate (RGR) compared to different groups.

description: We show that in the SU(2)XU(1) spin-charge gauge approach we developed earlier one can attribute consistently an exclusion statistics with parameter 1/2 to the spinless charge carriers of the t-J model in two dimensions(2D), as it occurs in one dimension (1D). Like the 1D case, the no-double occupation constraint is at the origin of this fractional exclusion statistics. With this statistics we recover a "large" Fermi volume of holes at high dopings, close to that of the tight binding approximation. Furthermore, the composite nature of the hole, made of charge and spin carriers only weakly bounded, can provide a natural explanation of many unusual experimental features of the hole-doped cuprates.
New T-duality for Chern-Simons Theory

description: It has recently pointed out that a four-dimensional analog of Chern-Simons theory provides an elegant framework for understanding integrable models with spectral parameters. The goal of this short note is to better understand the relation of this theory to the more standard three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory. We point out that two Chern-Simons theories, in four dimensions and three dimensions, are related by a novel T-duality in field theory. We then discuss this T-duality in string theory. Our T-duality prescription applies to a more general class of topological quantum field theories, producing mixed topological/holomorphic theories. This paper is motivated by the observation by C. Vafa.

description: Gravitational collapse is one of the most fruitful subjects in gravitational physics. It is well known that singularity formation is inevitable in complete gravitational collapse. It was conjectured that such a singularity should be hidden by horizons if it is formed from generic initial data with physically reasonable matter fields. Many possible counterexamples to this conjecture have been proposed over the past three decades, although none of them has proved to be sufficiently generic. In these examples, there appears a singularity that is not hidden by horizons. This singularity is called a `naked singularity.' The appearance of a naked singularity represents the formation of an observable high-curvature, strong-gravity region. In this paper we review examples of naked singularity formation and recent progress in research of observable physical processes - gravitational radiation and quantum particle creation - from a forming naked singularity.

The temperature dependence of the magnetic field penetration depth \Lamda can be well fitted from 5 K close to Tc by the standard BCS integral expression assuming the reduced energy gap Delta(0)/kTc to be as low as 1.13 and 1.03 for the two samples. For the penetration depth at zero temperatures, values of 110 nm and 115 nm were determined from the fit. Our results clearly indicates the s-wave character of the order parameter. The temperature dependence of the surface resistance Rs below Tc/2 is consistent with the low value of the energy gap. The surface resistance below 8 K was found to be below the resolution limit of 100 microOhm of our measurement technique.

description: We investigate the weak decay of uniformly {\em accelerated protons} in the context of {\em standard} Quantum Field Theory. Because the mean {\em proper} lifetime of a particle is a scalar, the same value for this observable must be obtained in the inertial and coaccelerated frames. We are only able to achieve this equality by considering the Fulling-Davies-Unruh effect. This reflects the fact that the Fulling-Davies-Unruh effect is mandatory for the consistency of Quantum Field Theory. There is no question about its existence provided one accepts the validity of standard Quantum Field Theory in flat spacetime.

description: GENUS TRICHOGAMMARUS GEN. NOV.   Type and the only known species
 Chaetogammarus trichiatus Martynov, 1932 (syn. Chaetogammarus tenellus major Caraus ¸u, 1943).
 Etymology
Named after its hairy uropod III; in ancient Greek thríks, trikhós = hair.
 Distribution
 Chaetogammarus trichiatus inhabits affluents of the Black Sea only.
 Remarks
 Although very similar to both Chaetogammarus and Homoeogammarus, it can be distinguished by the characteristic setosity of uropod III. Phylogenetically, this clade is also nested within the Ponto-Caspian group, distant from Homoeogammarus, but very close to the Dinaric clade of Homoeogammarus.

description: Within the weak-field, post-Newtonian approximation of the metric theories of gravity, we determine the one-way time transfer up to the order 1/c^4, the unperturbed term being of order 1/c, and the frequency shift up to the order 1/c^4. We adapt the method of the world-function developed by Synge to the Nordtvedt-Will PPN formalism. We get an integral expression for the world-function up to the order 1/c^3 and we apply this result to the field of an isolated, axisymmetric rotating body. We give a new procedure enabling to calculate the influence of the mass and spin multipole moments of the body on the time transfer and the frequency shift up to the order 1/c^4. We obtain explicit formulas for the contributions of the mass, of the quadrupole moment and of the intrinsic angular momentum. In the case where the only PPN parameters different from zero are beta and gamma, we deduce from these results the complete expression of the frequency shift up to the order 1/c^4. We briefly discuss the influence of the quadrupole moment and of the rotation of the Earth on the frequency shifts in the ACES mission.

description: GENUS MARINOGAMMARUS SCHELLENBERG, 1937 B
 Type species
 Gammarus marinus Leach, 1815.
 Aditional species
 Molecularly (conditionally) proven (Hou et al., 2014) taxa are: Gammarus obtusatus Dahl, 1938, Marinogammarus pirloti Sexton and Spooner, 1940; probably also Gammarus finmarchicus Dahl, 1938, and Marinogammarus atlanticus Dahl, 1958.
 Distribution
 Marinogammarus spp. inhabit shallow eastern and north-western North Atlantic waters, particularly where influenced by freshwater inflow. If G. olivii belongs here, as supposed by Sexton & Spooner (1940), the genus is also present in the Mediterranean.
 Remarks
 Marinogammarus is a sister clade to Homoeogammarus + Ponto-Caspian group of genera, and molecularly very distant from that sister group. It also differs in biogeography.

description: We observe anomalous visible to near-infrared electromagnetic radiation emitted from electrically driven atomic-size point contacts. We show that the number of photons released strongly depends on the quantized conductance steps of the contact. Counter-intuitively, the light intensity features an exponential decay dependence with the injected electrical power. We propose an analytical model for the light emission considering an out-of-equilibrium electron distribution. We treat photon emission as bremsstrahlung process resulting from hot electrons colliding with the metal boundary and a find qualitative accord with the experimental data.

Material examined: 38 males, 40 females and 36 nymphs (13 samples, EMEC, MONZ).
 Remarks: From the Kellogg Collection, we examined ten specimens reported and labelled as “ Menopon singularis ” by Kellogg & Kuwana (1902: 485) and by Kellogg (1906: 321): two syntypes from an incorrect host, and eight specimens from two species of Sula (“ Sula variegata ” = Sula granti, and S. nebouxii) and two incorrect hosts. We have identified them all as Eidmanniella albescens, a species known from several species of Sula (see Price et al. 2003: 107).
 Ryan & Price (1969a: 822) erroneously listed “ 2 ♂ (type-specimens of M. singularis), Anous stolidus, Galapagos”. The types of M. singularis are a female (the lectotype) and a nymph (paralectotype) with the original (type) locality given as “ Clipperton Island ”, as stated by Kellogg & Kuwana (1902: 485). However, as stated by Emerson (1947: 136), the figure included in Kellogg & Kuwana (1902) represents a male. Clipperton Island is not part of the Galápagos Archipelago but it was visited by the Hopkins Stanford Galapagos Expedition in their way to the Galápagos Islands (see Palma 1994b: 269).

Subjects: subject: oral fluid drug test, drug test, impaired driving, roadside drug test
subject: Government, Politics and Law

description: Key findings: Twenty-four states have statutes that authorize the use of roadside oral fluid tests. Drugs do not affect users uniformly or in a manner that is easy to measure. Differing characteristics of the drug, of the user, and of the circumstances in which the drug is used renders distinguishing between presence of drugs and impairment by drugs an opaque endeavor. There are no consistent standards in the manufacture of oral fluid tests. The lack of industry-wide consensus reflects research challenges like a dearth of quality studies and information challenges. Laws concerning the use of oral fluid tests are inconsistent across all 50 states. Language in manufacturers’ instructions states that oral fluid tests are presumptive in nature and must be confirmed with laboratory testing. Additionally, cross-reactivity with other, legal substances can introduce errors into the testing process.
description: Impaired driving is an issue affecting Americans every day. A 2021 report found that 56% of drivers involved in car crashes that resulted in a fatality or serious injury tested positive for at least one drug. Polysubstance impaired driving—operating a vehicle while under the influence of more than one drug or using drugs and alcohol together—has increasingly become a concern, especially in the face of the ongoing opioid epidemic and the increased legalization of recreational marijuana. These recent developments have led grassroots organizations and scholars to demand greater action to deal with substance-impaired drivers. There is growing interest in roadside drug tests to identify impaired drivers who may otherwise escape detection and decrease preventable traffic fatalities. At the same time, the U.S. criminal legal system's approach to drug use is defined by a punitive ideology that privileges retribution over treatment and prevention. Over 360,000 people are in prison in the U.S. for drugs, most simply for possession. The enforcement of laws criminalizing drug use has a disproportionate impact on communities of color and people experiencing poverty. Any plan to address substance misuse ought to include a clear understanding of that broader context.
