Publisher: name: Roper Center for Public Opinion Research
Year: 2023

description: Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS) offers researchers the opportunity to capture the internal validity of experiments. Investigators submit proposals, and TESS fields successful proposals for free on a representative sample of adults in the United States. This study was conducted to explore the relationships between behavioral biases and lottery expenditures relative to income. Respondents were asked to report their average monthly lottery spending, change in lottery spending relative to the previous year, and whether their lottery spending would change with increased income. A total of 3,013 respondents participated. Respondents also completed measures of risk aversion, pleasure received from playing the lottery, self-control, financial and statistical illiteracy, overconfidence, and perceptions of increased life satisfaction due to lottery winnings. This allowed for comparison of bias measures across levels of lottery expenditures relative to income.

An analytical approach to the problem of longitudinal stability of flying boats in the planing conditions

description: The subject of the longitudinal stability, or "porpoising", of flying boats has been the subject of investigation both in this country and abroad. In many cases, recourse to dynamically similar models has been had to determine the stability characteristics of the design in question. In general, however, the bare hull is tested in towing tanks, and the data are presented in the form of curves of resistance, moment, draft, speed, and angle of trim. Conclusions regarding "porpoising" of the full scale airplane cannot be drawn from these tests alone, but it is considered possible to evaluate certain of the hydrodynamic derivatives which in conjunction with aerodynamic derivatives obtained from wind tunnel tests, can be used in the stability equation to determine the behavior of the flying boat in the planing region.

In the analysis of the problem presented here, most of the derivations of the formulae have been omitted. For a more detailed derivation, reference is made to the thesis of Lieutenant George A. Hatton, U. S. N., entitled "The Longitudinal Stability of a Flying Boat in the Planing Condition as Computed from Tank Test Data of a Hull Model."

Throughout the analysis, the effect of a drag has been neglected. A discussion of this omission will be made in the conclusion of the paper.

The first part of the paper will be concerned with a presentation of the formulae and an example of their use with results of calculations made. The second part will cover the dynamic model tests and a discussion of the equipment used. The conclusion will cover the entire paper.

It must be noted that the analysis here is restricted to only the planing condition or that part of the take-off run past the hump, and the formulae are derived for that condition.

description: We consider a Graviweak Unification model with the assumption of the existence of the hidden (invisible) sector of our Universe parallel to the visible world. This Hidden World (HW) is assumed to be a Mirror World (MW) with broken mirror parity. We start with a diffeomorphism invariant theory of a gauge field valued in a Lie algebra g, which is broken spontaneously to the direct sum of the spacetime Lorentz algebra and the Yang-Mills algebra: $\tilde {\mathfrak g} = {\mathfrak su}(2)^{(grav)}_L \oplus {\mathfrak su}(2)_L$ -- in the ordinary world, and $\tilde {\mathfrak g}' = {{\mathfrak su}(2)'}^{(grav)}_R \oplus {\mathfrak su}(2)'_R$ -- in the hidden world. Using an extension of the Plebanski action for general relativity, we recover the actions for gravity, SU(2) Yang-Mills and Higgs fields in both (visible and invisible) sectors of the Universe, and also the total action. After symmetry breaking, all physical constants, including the Newton's constants, cosmological constants, Yang-Mills couplings, and other parameters, are determined by a single parameter $g$ presented in the initial action, and by the Higgs VEVs. The Dark Energy problem of this model predicts a too large supersymmetric breaking scale ($\sim 10^{10}-10^{12}$ GeV), which is not within the reach of the LHC experiments.

Construction and testing of a rarefied gas flow facility

Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology

Subjects: Aeronautics

description: A low-density gasdynamic facility, suitable for measurement of mass flow through small (approximately 1 mm diameter) nozzles, tubes, and orifices, was designed and constructed. The system is capable of producing and measuring mass flows at 100:1 upstream/downstream pressure ratios for the entire spectrum from continuum to free molecular flow.

Results of preliminary tests on an orifice are shown and compared with the work of previous investigators. The regime of transition flow is apparently shown to extend to higher Knudsen numbers than previously postulated. The ratio, of actual mass flow to theoretical free-molecule mass flow is shown to increase smoothly from a limiting value of 1.0 at high Knudsen numbers to an apparent limiting value at very low continuum-flow Knudsen numbers.

description: Traditionally, in times of crises, leaders and governments resort to appeals of national defence and security to rally a population together, to create a united front against that crisis. Issues of main concern are framed through a militaristic and security lens to sensationalise the issue, to make compliance of the population easier, and to give the government the necessary powers to address the issue. Simultaneously, less important issues tend to be framed through a socio-economic lens. Such a lens garners less interest in the issue, and thus less action. This thesis looks at the framing of the coronavirus pandemic in 5 countries through a comparative lens, to assess how much of a security frame countries used. A framing index is constructed to measure the level of security framing, looking for elements of speech and actions from governments. Framing is then measured against compliance, trust in government, and coronavirus performance. Findings suggest that government framing had no impact on how regular people viewed or understood the pandemic. However, framing reflected how the government itself viewed the pandemic and the possible solutions for it. Countries that employed a more security frame had considerably worse health outcomes.

description: Despite scientists’ dire warnings about the catastrophic impacts of climate change, the greenhouse gases that cause it continue to be emitted in substantial amounts. While there is no question that deep, across the board cuts in greenhouse gas emissions are essential, many scientists now agree that simply cutting future emissions will not be enough. It will also be necessary to remove previously-emitted greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. This paper explores one greenhouse gas removal technique—enhanced weathering—which involves spreading finely ground silicate rocks or other materials with similar chemical composition over land or ocean waters. The materials react with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, sequestering it in mineral form (e.g., as limestone) on land or in the oceans. While further study is needed to fully evaluate the risks associated with enhanced weathering, initial research suggests that it could result in the long-term storage of large amounts of carbon dioxide, likely for centuries or millennia. This paper examines the international and U.S. legal framework for enhanced weathering on land and in ocean waters. As the paper shows, there are currently no international or U.S. federal or state laws dealing specifically with enhanced weathering, but projects could be regulated under various general environmental and other laws. At the international level, potentially applicable instruments include the Convention on Biological Diversity, Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Waste and Other Matter, and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Domestically, projects could be subject to various provisions of the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act, among other statutes. Exactly when and how these statutes will apply remains uncertain. Much will depend on the specific design of each project, including where it is conducted, the materials used, and how they are applied to land or ocean waters. The paper identifies areas where new laws could be adopted, or existing laws revised, to reduce uncertainty and facilitate the development of enhanced weathering projects.

description: The reduced dynamics formalism has recently emerged as a powerful tool to study the dynamics of non-equilibrium quantum impurity models in strongly correlated regimes. Examples include the non-equilibrium Anderson impurity model near the Kondo crossover temperature and the non-equilibrium Holstein model, for which the formalism provides an accurate description of the reduced density matrix of the system for a wide range of timescales. In this work, we generalize the formalism to allow for non-system observables such as the current between the impurity and leads. We show that the equation of motion for the reduced observable of interest can be closed with the equation of motion for the reduced density matrix and demonstrate the new formalism for a generic resonant level model.

description: Distributed quantum computing (DQC) combines the computing power of multiple networked quantum processing modules, enabling the execution of large quantum circuits without compromising on performance and connectivity. Photonic networks are well-suited as a versatile and reconfigurable interconnect layer for DQC; remote entanglement shared between matter qubits across the network enables all-to-all logical connectivity via quantum gate teleportation (QGT). For a scalable DQC architecture, the QGT implementation must be deterministic and repeatable; until now, there has been no demonstration satisfying these requirements. We experimentally demonstrate the distribution of quantum computations between two photonically interconnected trapped-ion modules. The modules are separated by $\sim$ 2 m, and each contains dedicated network and circuit qubits. By using heralded remote entanglement between the network qubits, we deterministically teleport a controlled-Z gate between two circuit qubits in separate modules, achieving 86% fidelity. We then execute Grover's search algorithm - the first implementation of a distributed quantum algorithm comprising multiple non-local two-qubit gates - and measure a 71% success rate. Furthermore, we implement distributed iSWAP and SWAP circuits, compiled with 2 and 3 instances of QGT, respectively, demonstrating the ability to distribute arbitrary two-qubit operations. As photons can be interfaced with a variety of systems, this technique has applications extending beyond trapped-ion quantum computers, providing a viable pathway towards large-scale quantum computing for a range of physical platforms.

description: We study the Anderson model as a description of the quantum RC circuit for spin-1/2 electrons and a single level connected to a single lead. Our analysis relies on the Fermi liquid nature of the ground state which fixes the form of the low energy effective model. The constants of this effective model are extracted from a numerical solution of the Bethe ansatz equations for the Anderson model. They allow us to compute the charge relaxation resistance Rq in different parameter regimes. In the Kondo region, the peak in Rq as a function of the magnetic field is recovered and proven to be in quantitative agreement with previous numerical renormalization group results. In the valence-fluctuation region, the peak in Rq is shown to persist, with a maximum value of h/2e^2, and an analytical expression is obtained using perturbation theory. We extend our analysis to the SU(4) Anderson model where we also derive the existence of a giant peak in the charge relaxation resistance.

However, their accurate visualization is often difficult and the interpretation of the obtained images can be complicated. We present a comparative scanning electron microscopy and helium ion microscopy study of cetyltrimethylammonium--bromide (CTAB) coated gold nano--rods. Using both methods we show how the gold core as well as the surrounding thin CTAB shell can selectively be visualized. This allows for a quantitative determination of the dimensions of the gold core or the CTAB shell. The obtained CTAB shell thickness of 1.0 nm--1.5 nm is in excellent agreement with earlier results using more demanding and reciprocal space techniques.

Technique of measuring transverse components of velocity fluctuations in turbulent flow

description: The mean speed characteristics of several X-type v'/U-meters having widely varied dimensions were measured in order to verify assumptions usually made regarding the range of linear characteristics for meters of this type.

Using the same meters, and other meters with intermediate sizes, values of v'/U were measured in the turbulent fields behind three grids. Comparison of the results gave a qualitative indication of the effect of meter size on turbulence measurements.

A length correction for the X-type meters used was derived and the turbulence values corrected, with the result that all meters gave approximately the same answers.

However, even after application of the length correction, it was found that in the turbulent field behind grids (generally assumed to be isotropic) v'/U was consistently lower than u'/U at a given distance behind the grid. This result is the same as that described by Corrsin in ref. (4) where no length correction was applied.

description: John Lewis Krimmel is widely regarded as the first genre painter in the early republic.2 Born in Germany in 1786, he studied art in Germany before emigrating to the United States as a young man. Settling in Philadelphia in 1810, he worked steadily until 1821 when he died at the age of 35. Krimmel is often praised as a faithful chronicler of the routine, the unremarkable, and the taken-for-granted. Yet, in our view, it is a mistake to treat Village Tavern as an ordinary scene from everyday life. Unlike so many genre paintings, it is neither sentimental nor nostalgic. Rather, we contend that--like Krimmel's well-known paintings of major civic rituals in the early republic, such as his View of Centre Square on the Fourth of July (1812) and Election Scene, State House in Philadelphia (1815-)--it dramatizes a significant development in American history. In Village Tavern, Krimmel ponders the social consequences of the communications revolution that had been set in motion with the Post Office Act of 1792. Just as a late twentieth-century photojournalist might find newsworthy the hustle-and-bustle of an on-line internet cafe, so Krimmel documents the new informational environment that this revolution had spawned.

description: Background: Adolescents and young adults between the ages of 10 to 24 represent 37% of people living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite their increased vulnerability, the adolescent population is often excluded from biomedical and behavioral research. While the importance of involving adolescents in health research is widely recognized, their participation is often complicated by ethical, legal, and practical issues. One critical but understudied area in research ethics is the cognitive capacity of adolescents of different ages to understand and provide informed consent. This paper explores adolescents’ cognitive capacity to understand and provide informed consent using a modified version of the MacArthur Competence Assessment Tool for Clinical Research (MacCAT-CR) in Rakai, Uganda. MacCAT tool is a modified semi-structured interview that assists investigators in assessments of patients' competence to consent to research. Method: The study used qualitative descriptive analysis drawn from data collected in Rakai, Uganda. Data sources included semi-structured in-depth interviews using the MacCAT-CR with selected study participants (N =14); including adolescents (n=7), and their parents/guardians (n=7). Results: The findings suggest that adolescents’ level of knowledge and understanding of informed consent did not differ from that of parents/guardians level of understanding. Adolescents also displayed independent decision-making abilities and a high level of competency indicating their ability to self-consent in research. Conclusion: Taking this perspective will contribute to shaping future research and policy guidelines regarding adolescents’ participation in research in sub-Saharan Africa. More research are needed to further understand and explore methods for ethically involving adolescents in research, especially research related to sexual health and research in low and middle-income countries.

description: A diversity of animals that run on solid, level, flat, non-slip surfaces appear to bounce on their legs; elastic elements in the limbs can store and return energy during each step. The mechanics and energetics of running in natural terrain, particularly on surfaces that can yield and flow under stress, is less understood. The zebra-tailed lizard (Callisaurus draconoides), a small desert generalist with a large, elongate, tendinous hind foot, runs rapidly across a variety of natural substrates. We use high speed video to obtain detailed three-dimensional running kinematics on solid and granular surfaces to reveal how leg, foot, and substrate mechanics contribute to its high locomotor performance. Running at ~10 body length/s (~1 m/s), the center of mass oscillates like a spring-mass system on both substrates, with only 15% reduction in stride length on the granular surface. On the solid surface, a strut-spring model of the hind limb reveals that the hind foot saves about 40% of the mechanical work needed per step, significant for the lizard's small size. On the granular surface, a penetration force model and hypothesized subsurface foot rotation indicates that the hind foot paddles through fluidized granular medium, and that the energy lost per step during irreversible deformation of the substrate does not differ from the reduction in the mechanical energy of the center of mass. The upper hind leg muscles must perform three times as much mechanical work on the granular surface as on the solid surface to compensate for the greater energy lost within the foot and to the substrate.

description: The right to health has been repeatedly recognized as one of the core human rights, essential for human functioning, human dignity, economic well-being, and development. But the right to health continues to elude hundreds of millions and with Covid-19, perhaps billions of people. Poverty remains the most critical obstacle to the realization of the right to health in developing countries. Achieving universal health coverage, before the additional costs of Covid-19, would require roughly $50 billion per year, approximately 0.1 percent of the GDP of the high-income OECD countries. Yet despite this broad understanding of the vicious cycle of poverty and disease, and the means for scaling up health coverage and care, the international community has mustered only a laggard and insufficient response. In addition to the moral and economic imperatives to invest in the right to health, there is also a legal imperative grounded in binding international legal instruments, wherein States have undertaken to realize specific human rights, including through international assistance and cooperation. This chapter explores the legal basis for the universal right to health and the core obligation found in international law of all developed countries to assist in the realization of this core human right. Finally, it outlines possible steps that the international community can take to help achieve the right to health globally.

This allows one to compute the free energy without solving any supergravity equations, just assuming the solutions exist. As well as recovering some known results in the literature with ease, we also present new supergravity results that match with holographically dual field theory computations.

description: Planer und Betreiber von Produktionsanlagen stehen vor der Frage, welche Normen für die IT-Sicherheitskonzepte und ggf. auch für eine Auditierung dieser Anlagen anzuwenden sind. Da die Verantwortlichkeit in Bezug auf die IT-Sicherheit für die Operational Technology (OT) oft in anderen Händen liegt, als die für Information Technology (IT), gibt es hier gelegentlich abweichende Auffassungen darüber welche Normen zu Grunde zu legen sind. Personen aus dem IT-Umfeld fokussieren in der Regel auf die Normreihe ISO 27001, während Personen aus dem OT-Umfeld eher die Normreihe IEC 62443 favorisieren. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt die Grundlagen und Ausrichtung der beiden Normreihen und gibt Anregungen, in welchem Kontext welche die Normen sinnvoll und ggf. auch kombiniert nutzbar sind. Das Dokument schließt mit einer Empfehlung für ein Vorgehen im Bereich von Produktionsanlagen für die Fertigungs- und Prozessindustrie (OT-Security).

On the use of fixed attitude propulsive arcs for transfer between neighboring coplanar Keplerian orbits
Creators: name: Wiley, Robert F.

Subjects: Aeronautics

description: The question of whether or not a coplanar, fixed attitude, constant acceleration burn in a central force field can result in a post-burn orbit that does not intersect the pre-burn orbit was investigated for small changes in the orbit. This was done by developing a criterion for separation between coplanar elliptical orbits, solving
the linearized equations of motion given in reference 1 for a coplanar, fixed attitude, constant acceleration burn, and evaluating the criterion. Regions in which an initial alignment of the acceleration vector may be chosen to result in orbital separation at some point in the burn and the alignments of the acceleration vector to do this were found numerically. However, it appears that the distances between the separated orbits and the time over which the orbits separate for a particular alignment are too small to make the phenomenon of much practical use for small orbital changes.

description: The extractive industries (EI) are at a critical juncture. A period of significant commodity price volatility is intersecting with the global energy transition and, more recently, the major social, political, and economic repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic – a combination of forces creating both uncertainty and potentially major shifts in how EI are developed and governed. As EI governance practitioners grapple with these shifts, and the challenges and opportunities they bring, transparency will be an essential tool. However, practitioners need to think—and work—more politically as they develop and deploy this tool moving forward to make the most of its potential. This discussion piece is one aggregation of perspectives, ideas, and questions coming out of several years of expert consultations, meetings, and interviews undertaken as part of the Executive Session on the Politics of Extractive Industries convened by the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment. The piece focuses on the ways in which political realities can shape the efficacy and impact of efforts to advance various goals through transparency of extractive industries (EI transparency). The authors suggest that more systematic integration of political considerations into the design and implementation of these efforts may minimize risks of “zombie transparency,” and reinforce ultimate positive impacts. It should help those seeking to use EI data for specific purposes, such as to reduce corruption and enhance benefit sharing; unpack monolithic terms; account for incentives along the transparency lifecycle; and realize yet more of the potential of information disclosures. This is an introductory piece intended to catalyze and provoke critical thinking, debate, further investigation, and, ultimately, practical experimentation. It will be accompanied by a series of blog posts authored by different members of the Executive Session and other EI experts to explore some of the themes touched on below in greater detail, e.g. through country- or sector-specific lenses.

description: Transparency is often seen as a means of improving governance and accountability of investment, but its potential to do so is hindered by vague definitions and failures to focus on the needs of key local actors. In a new report focusing on agribusiness, forestry, and renewable energy projects (“land investments”), CCSI grounds transparency in the needs of project-affected communities and other local actors. Transparency efforts that seek to inform and empower communities can also help governments, companies, and other actors to more effectively manage operational risk linked to social conflict. Troublingly, the report finds that: - Disclosures around land investments continue to fall short - Communities struggle to access disclosed information - More action is needed to enable communities to understand available information; and - Communities face barriers to using information and to participating in open decision-making processes. Taking a politically informed approach that considers the incentives of powerful actors, the report proposes seven strategies to advance land investment transparency: 1. Driving agendas with community-led processes, such as protocols, bylaws, and development plans 2. Increasing technical support for communities 3. Empowering good faith regulators 4. Implementing multi-stakeholder and participatory processes, when appropriate 5. Factoring community-generated information into investment-related decisions 6. Initiating domestic mechanisms to increase public access to information 7. Extending community participation beyond individual projects to the policy level.

description: Learning to perceive non-native speech sounds is difficult for adults. One method to improve perception of non-native contrasts is through a distributional learning paradigm. Three groups of native-English listeners completed a perceptual assimilation task in which they mapped French vowels onto English vowel categories: Two groups (bimodal, unimodal distribution) completed a perceptual learning task for the French /œ/-/o/ contrast and a third completed no training. Both trained groups differed from the untrained group, but participants in the bimodal group showed a different perceptual mapping for the targeted /œ/ vowel, suggesting that the bimodal condition may maximize perception of non-native contrasts.
Geology of the San Juan Canyon area, Orange County, California

description: The area described in this report occupies a narrow strip along the San Juan River in the south-western portion of the Santa Ana Mountains in Southern California.  This region includes a sedimentary series of rocks which forms a gentle westward-dipping homocline off the crystalline core of the Santa Ana Mountains.  Rocks range in age from Triassic to Recent.

The basement complex comprises a series of Triassic slates, quartzites, and other rock types, with later intrusive of granitic masses.  A considerable thickness of Cretaceous rocks conformably overlie the crystalline complex and is composed of heavy coarse conglomerates, fine shales, and micaceous sansdstones.  A section of Eocene clays and sandstones, 2500 feet thick of probable Martinez age, overlies the Cretaceous section.  These rocks have been faulted up against the Lower Miocene San Onofre facies of the Temblor.  The upper Miocene Monterey shales and Capistrano sands overlie these rocks.

Local structure in the area includes faulting and some gentle folding.  Structural and general topographic trends parallel the NW-SE structural trends of the Santa Ana Mountains.
A Modern Look at the Oscillation Physics Case for a Neutrino Factory

description: The next generation of neutrino oscillation experiments, JUNO, DUNE, and HK, are under construction now and will collect data over the next decade and beyond. As there are no approved plans to follow up this program with more advanced neutrino oscillation experiments, we consider here one option that had gained considerable interest more than a decade ago: a neutrino factory. Such an experiment uses stored muons in a racetrack configuration with extremely well characterized decays reducing systematic uncertainties and providing for more oscillation channels. Such a machine could also be one step towards a high energy muon collider program. We consider a long-baseline configuration to SURF using the DUNE far detectors or modifications thereof, and compare the expected sensitivities of the three-flavor oscillation parameters to the anticipated results from DUNE and HK. We show optimal beam configurations, the impact of charge identification, the role of statistics and systematics, and the expected precision to the relevant standard oscillation parameters in different DUNE vs.~neutrino factory configurations.

description: The geometrically frustrated double perovskite Ba2YRuO6 has magnetic 4d3 Ru5+ ions decorating an undistorted face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice. This material has been previously reported to exhibit commensurate long-range antiferromagnetic order below T_N = 36K, a factor f = 15 times lower than its Curie-Weiss temperature Theta_CW = -522 K, and purported short-range order to T* = 47K. We report new time-of-flight neutron spectroscopy of Ba2YRuO6 which shows the development of a 5 meV spin gap in the vicinity of the [100] magnetic ordering wavevector below T_N = 36K, with the transition to long-range order occurring at T* = 47K. We also report spin waves extending to 14 meV, a surprisingly small bandwidth in light of the large Theta_CW. We compare the spin gap and bandwidth to relevant neutron studies of the isostructural 4d1 material Ba2YMoO6,and discuss the results in the framework of relatively strong spin-orbit coupling expected in 4d magnetic systems.

description: We determine the limit of the lowest achievable photoemitted electron temperature, and therefore the maximum achievable electron brightness, due to heating just after emission into vacuum, applicable to dense relativistic or nonrelativistic photoelectron beams. This heating is due to poorly screened Coulomb interactions equivalent to disorder induced heating seen in ultracold neutral plasmas. We first show that traditional analytic methods of Coulomb collisions fail for the calculation of this strongly coupled heating. Instead, we employ an N-body tree algorithm to compute the universal scaling of the disorder induced heating in fully contained bunches, and show it to agree well with a simple model utilizing the tabulated correlated energy of one component plasmas. We also present simulations for beams undergoing Coulomb explosion at the photocathode, and demonstrate that both the temperature growth and subsequent cooling must be characterized by correlated effects, as well as correlation-frozen dynamics. In either case, the induced temperature is found to be of several meV for typical photoinjector beam densities, a significant fraction of the intrinsic beam temperature of the coldest semiconductor photocathodes. Thus, we expect disorder induced heating to become a major limiting factor in the next generation of photoemission sources delivering dense bunches and employing ultra-cold photoemitters.
