description: Self-assessment plays a critical and important role toward safe and robust autonomous driving. Current self-assessment approaches in this area focus on individual modules at specific positions within the autonomous driving stack. The literature lacks a unifying framework to combine various self-assessment information. Hence, this work provides a comprehensive self-assessment framework for autonomous driving stacks, combining and unifying existing self-assessment methods. For this framework, we propose using subjective logic as an interface to standardize the output of self-assessment modules. This allows the combination of different modules and their use in subsequent processing modules. Our approach can be deployed to existing autonomous vehicle software stacks without imposing any requirements on their functional parts, enabling easy integration. With this framework, we are aiming to contribute to the improvement of safety and reliability in autonomous driving.

description: Unter dem Stichwort der Caring Masculinities werden unkonventionelle Männlichkeitsentwürfe und -biografien untersucht, durch die ggf. ein Transformationspotenzial für sich verändernde Geschlechterverhältnisse abzulesen ist. Darunter werden auch Praktiken männlicher Fürsorglichkeit beleuchtet, bislang vor allem in Bezug auf familiäre Nahbeziehungen. Im Kontrast dazu wird in dem Beitrag der Kontext von Pflegeberufen als Arena von Strukturübungen männlicher Fürsorglichkeit analysiert. Er rekonstruiert anhand von qualitativen Interviews mit männlich subjektivierten Pflegern in der Kranken-, Alten- und Heilerziehungspflege, wie sie Männlichkeit mit Fürsorglichkeit verknüpfen. Die Auswertung der Interviews zeigt, dass Krankenpfleger durch ihren Arbeitsalltag fürsorgliche Praktiken eher mit Idealen hegemonialer Männlichkeit verknüpfen, während in der Alten- und Heilerziehungspflege Vorstellungen hegemonialer Männlichkeit verunsichert werden und sich Veränderungsprozesse andeuten.

description: Background: Pembrolizumab is a standard of care as first line palliative therapy in PD-L1 overexpressing (≥50%) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed at the identification of KRAS and TP53-defined mutational subgroups in the PD-L1 high population to distinguish long-term responders from those with limited benefit. Methods: In this retrospective, observational study, patients from 4 certified lung cancer centers in Berlin, Germany, having received pembrolizumab monotherapy as first line palliative treatment for lung adenocarcinoma (LuAD) from 2017 to 2018, with PD-L1 expression status and targeted NGS data available, were evaluated. Results: A total of 119 patients were included. Rates for KRAS, TP53 and combined mutations were 52.1%, 47.1% and 21.9%, respectively, with no association given between KRAS and TP53 mutations (P=0.24). By trend, PD-L1 expression was higher in KRAS-positive patients (75% vs. 65%, P=0.13). Objective response rate (ORR), median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in the KRASG12C group (n=32, 51.6%) were 63.3%, 19.8 months (mo.) and not estimable (NE), respectively. Results in KRASother and wild type patients were similar and by far lower (42.7%, P=0.06; 6.2 mo., P<0.001; 23.4 mo., P=0.08). TP53 mutations alone had no impact on response and survival. However, KRASG12C/TP53 co-mutations (n=12) defined a subset of long-term responders (ORR 100.0%, PFS 33.3 mo., OS NE). In contrast, patients with KRASother/TP53 mutations showed a dismal prognosis (ORR 27.3%, P=0.002; PFS 3.9 mo., P=0.001, OS 9.7 mo., P=0.02). Conclusions: A comprehensive assessment of KRAS subtypes and TP53 mutations allows a highly relevant prognostic differentiation of patients with metastatic, PD-L1 high LuAD treated upfront with pembrolizumab.

description: Turkey, as a developing country, is designing and performing massive construction projects around Istanbul. Beginning from the 1960s, rapid urbanization has been taking place due to industrialization, which brings an increase in the population. Yet, construction projects have been accelerated especially during the last decade, and many new projects are scheduled to be completed in a short time. Ground-based observations are generally carried out to monitor the deformations within construction sites, especially through geometric levelling, and GNSS techniques. However, in most cases, these monitoring measurements are only scheduled within the period of the construction process, and ensuing deformations are usually not considered. In addition to these techniques, the space-based interferometric technique can also be used to define the line of sight surface displacements with high accuracy, using the phase difference between image result for synthetic aperture radar images. In particular, Persistent Scatter Interferometry is one of the interferometric methods that are capable of defining the two-dimensional (vertical and horizontal) deformation for the desired epoch with a high temporal resolution. Thus it can be used as a complementary method for monitoring ground deformations, where the measurement is made by ground-based observations. In this study, the deforming areas related to underground metro construction are investigated through significant displacements between 2015 and 2018 of Sentinel-1 space-borne SAR data using the PSI technique. These results are validated by comparison with available levelling data corresponding to the new metro line.

description: The mass accretion rate is a crucial parameter for the study of the evolution of accretion discs around young low-mass stellar and substellar objects (YSOs). We revisit the case of MYLup, an object where VLT/X-Shooter data suggested a negligible mass accretion rate, and show it to be accreting on a level similar to other ClassII YSOs in Lupus based on HST observations. In our HST-COS and -STIS spectra, we find many emission lines, as well as substantial FUV continuum excess emission, which can be ascribed to active accretion. The total luminosity of the CIV 1549A doublet is 4.1$\times10^{-4}$ Lsun. Using scalings between accretion luminosity, Lacc, and CIV luminosity from the literature, we derive Lacc $\sim$2$\times10^{-1}$ Lsun, which is more than an order of magnitude higher than the upper limit estimated from the X-Shooter observations. We discuss possible reasons for the X-Shooter-HST discrepancy, the most plausible being that the low contrast between the continuum excess emission and the photospheric+chromospheric emission at optical wavelengths in MYLup hampered detection of excess emission. The luminosity of the FUV continuum and CIV lines, strong H$_{2}$ fluorescence, and a "1600 A Bump" place MYLup in the class of accreting objects with gas-rich discs. So far, MYLup is the only peculiar case in which a significant difference between the HST and X-Shooter Macc estimates exists that is not ascribable to variability. The mass accretion rate inferred from the revisited Lacc estimate is Macc $\sim$ 1( $^{+1.5}_{-0.5}$ )$\times10^{-8}$ Msun/yr. This value is consistent with the typical value derived for accreting YSOs of similar mass in Lupus and points to less clearing of the inner disc than indicated by near- and mid-infrared observations. This is confirmed by ALMA data, which show that the gaps and rings seen in the sub-millimetre are relatively shallow.

Halo Concentration and the Dark Matter Power Spectrum

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We explore the connection between halo concentration and the dark matter power spectrum using the halo model. We fit halo model parameters to non-linear power spectra over a large range of cosmological models. We find that the non-linear evolution of the power spectrum generically prefers the concentration at non-linear mass scale to decrease with the effective slope of the linear power spectrum, in agreement with the direct analysis of the halo structure in different cosmological models. Using these analyses, we compute the predictions for non-linear power spectrum beyond the current resolution of N-body simulations. We find that the halo model predictions are generically below the analytical non-linear models, suggesting that the latter may overestimate the amount of power on small scales.

description: Abstract Background We introduce a novel measure for assessing TikTok overuse, called the TikTok Use Disorder-Questionnaire (TTUD-Q). As part of ongoing investigations into the suitability of the World Health Organization’s (WHO) framework for diagnosing Gaming Disorder in the context of social media overuse, we developed this questionnaire by adapting the WHO framework, replacing the term “gaming” with “TikTok use”. Methods In order to address this question, we investigated the psychometric properties of the newly designed TTUD-Q and assessed its associations with the BFI-10 (assessing the Big Five of Personality) and the PHQ-8 (assessing depressive tendencies). Results In this study, involving a final sample of 378 participants, we observed that higher levels of neuroticism were linked to greater tendencies toward TikTok Use Disorder (TTUD). Furthermore, we identified that this association was mediated by depressive tendencies. Similar trends emerged when investigating the relationship between lower levels of conscientiousness and higher TTUD tendencies, with depressive tendencies once again serving as a mediator. Discussion Our research sets the foundation for future studies that should delve deeper into examining individual differences in TTUD using the WHO framework originally designed for Gaming Disorder.

description: Aims: We aimed to elucidate whether the DNA extraction kit and bacteria therein affect the characterization of bacterial communities associated with butterfly samples harbouring different bacterial abundancies. Methods and Results: We analysed bacteria associated with eggs of Pieris brassicae and with adults of this butterfly, which were either untreated or treated with antibiotics (ABs). Three DNA extraction kits were used. Regardless of the extraction kit used, PCR amplification of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene detected very low bacterial presence in eggs and AB‐treated butterflies. In untreated butterflies, bacterial signal intensity varied according to the kit and primers used. Sequencing (MiSeq) of the bacterial communities in untreated and AB‐treated butterflies revealed a low alpha diversity in untreated butterflies because of the dominance of few bacteria genera, which were detectable regardless of the kit. However, a significantly greater alpha diversity was found in AB‐treated butterflies, evidencing a true bias of the results due to bacterial contaminants in the kit. Conclusions: The so‐called ‘kitome’ can impact the profiling of Lepidoptera‐associated bacteria in samples with low bacterial biomass. Significance and Impact of the Study: Our study highlights the necessity of method testing and analysis of negative controls when investigating Lepidoptera‐associated bacterial communities.

description: Dephasing of one-particle states in closed quantum dots is analyzed within the framework of random matrix theory and Master equation. Combination of this analysis with recent experiments on the magnetoconductance allows for the first time to evaluate the dephasing times of closed quantum dots. These dephasing times turn out to depend on the mean level spacing and to be significantly enhanced as compared with the case of open dots. Moreover, the experimental data available are consistent with the prediction that the dephasing of one-particle states in finite closed systems disappears at low enough energies and temperatures.

description: Studies of the cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their host galaxies are now starting to provide interesting or even unique new insights in observational cosmology. Observed GRB host galaxies have a median magnitude R ~ 25 mag, and show a range of luminosities, morphologies, and star formation rates, with a median redshift z ~ 1. They represent a new way of identifying a population of star-forming galaxies at cosmological redshifts, which is mostly independent of the traditional selection methods. They seem to be broadly similar to the normal field galaxy populations at comparable redshifts and magnitudes, and indicate at most a mild luminosity evolution over the redshift range they probe. Studies of GRB optical afterglows seen in absorption provide a powerful new probe of the ISM in dense, central regions of their host galaxies, which is complementary to the traditional studies using QSO absorption line systems. Some GRB hosts are heavily obscured, and provide a new way to select a population of cosmological sub-mm sources. A census of detected optical tranistents may provide an important new way to constrain the total obscured fraction of star formation over the history of the universe. Finally, detection of GRB afterglows at high redshifts (z > 6) may provide a unique way to probe the primordial star formation, massive IMF, early IGM, and chemical enrichment at the end of the cosmic reionization era.

description: El proceso de globalización que la economía mundial está manifestando en los últimos años constituye un gran reto para Túnez, país que está inmerso en un gran proyecto de reformas económicas y estructurales. En este contexto, cualquier decisión en el ámbito de la política macroeconómica genera importantes consecuencias, tanto directas como indirectas, que afectan al bloque agroalimentario y a sus agentes. Sin embargo, hasta la fecha la mayoría de los estudios efectuados sobre el sector agroalimentario han ignorado estos efectos. Desde este punto de vista, este estudio es uno de los primeros trabajos que analiza el impacto de cambios en la política monetaria y cambiaria sobre las exportaciones y los precios percibidos en el sector agroalimentario. El enfoque metodológico utilizado para abordar este estudio se basa en el análisis multivariante de cointegración, lo que nos ha permitido diferenciar entre el largo y el corto plazo. Los principales resultados obtenidos indican que la relación existente entre las variables macroeconómicas y el sector agroalimentario es unidireccional. Aquéllas tienen un efecto en éste pero no al contrario. Los shocks en el tipo de cambio generan efectos más permanentes que los que tienen lugar en la política monetaria.....The ongoing globalisation process, which is taken place in the world economy, is a big challenge for Tunisia, a country which is suffering a complex process of structural economic reforms. In this situation any policy decision on macroeconomic variables generates important consequences, both direct and indirect, on the agrofood sector. However, most of the studies dealing with the agricultural sector have ignored such possible effects. This study is one of the first attempts to analyse the impact of changes in the monetary policy and the exchange rate on agricultural prices and exports. The methodology used is based on the multivariate cointegration approach which allows to differentiate between the short and the long-run behaviour. Results indicate that changes in macroeconomic variables have an effect on the agricultural sector but the reverse effect does not hold. Any shock in the exchange rate generates more permanent effects on agricultural prices and exports that those in the monetary variables.

description: The conditions necessary for a nanotube junction connecting a metallic and semiconducting nanotube to rectify the current are theoretically investigated. A tight binding model is used for the analysis, which includes the Hartree-Fock approximation and the Green's function method. It is found that the junction has a behavior similar to the backward diode if the gate electrode is located nearby and the Fermi level of the semiconducting tube is near the gap. Such a junction would be advantageous since the required length for the rectification could be reduced.

description: En este trabajo se trata de contribuir al conocimiento de los mecanismos que regulaban durante el Antiguo Régimen el mercado de pastos en las comarcas del reino de Castilla donde se concentraban en los meses de verano los ganados trashumantes. Para ello se ha escogido la comarca soriana, que presenta como peculiaridad frente a otras el que apenas se dio entrada en ella a ganaderos foráneos, por lo que fueron preferentemente ganaderos autóctonos los que se disputaron el aprovechamiento de pastos de verano. Y por esta misma razón el mercado de pastos no alcanzó allí gran desarrollo, dado que prevaleció el régimen de libre acceso para todos los vecinos. Se identifican, no obstante, en este trabajo los pastos a los que se accedió a través de arrendamientos. Y se trata de determinar en qué medida dicho mercado estuvo mediatizado por la aplicación del derecho de «posesión», que trataron de defender los ganaderos mesteños frente a los propietarios de los términos, que se resistieron a reconocerlo......In this article the author makes a contribution to the study of the patterns of regulation of the transactions for the renting of pastures in the kingdom of Castile during the Modern Age, especially in those regions where the trashumant sheep were concentrated in summer. He chooses for this study the region of Soria, where in contrast with other mountain regions of Castile, no foreign flockowners were admitted to exploit pastures, and as a result only resident flockowners disputed themselves the explotation of pastures in summer. In this region the free access to pastures for all the neighbours prevailed, and in consequence the hiring of pastures was much less usual than in other regions. Nevertheless, the author gives account of some sorts of pasture that were usually rented, and he tries to determine in which way the hiring transactions were affected by the application of the right of «posesión», that the flockowners who were members of the “Mesta” defended against the resistance of the lords of the lands that were rented.

description: We present a calculation of a solitary wave propagating along a cylindrical Bose-Einstein trap, which is found to be a hybrid of a one-dimensional (1D) soliton and a three-dimensional (3D) vortex ring. The calculated energy-momentum dispersion exhibits characteristics similar to those of a mode proposed sometime ago by Lieb within a 1D model, as well as some rotonlike features.

description: In this paper we discuss the effect of a non-constant dislocation drag coefficient on the very high strain rate regime within an analytic model describing mobile-immobile dislocation intersections applicable to polycrystals. Based on previous work on dislocation drag, we estimate its temperature and pressure dependence and its effects on stress-strain rate relations. In the high temperature regime, we show that drag can remain the dominating effect even down to intermediate strain rates. We also discuss the consequences of having a limiting dislocation velocity, a feature which is typically predicted by analytic models of dislocation drag, but which is somewhat under debate because a number of MD simulations predict supersonic dislocations.

description: Combining the measured binding energies of four of the most weakly bound rovibrational levels of the $^{87}$Rb$_2$ molecule with the results of two other recent high-precision rubidium experiments, we obtain exceptionally strong constraints on the atomic interaction parameters in a highly model independent analysis. The comparison of $^{85}$Rb and $^{87}$Rb data, where the two isotopes are related by a mass scaling procedure, plays a crucial role. Using the consistent picture of the interactions that thus arises we are led to predictions for scattering lengths, clock shifts, Feshbach resonance fields and widths with an unprecedented level of accuracy. To demonstrate this, we predict two Feshbach resonances in mixed-spin scattering channels at easily accessible magnetic field strengths, which we expect to play a role in the damping of coherent spin oscillations.
Quantum empty Bianchi I spacetime with internal time

description: We discuss the question of time in a Bianchi I quantum cosmology in the framework of singularity avoidance. We show that time parameters fall into two distinct classes, that are such that the time development of the wave function either always leads to the appearance of a singularity (fast-gauge time) or that always prevents it from occurring (slow-gauge time). Furthermore, we find that, in the latter case, there exists an asymptotic regime, independent of the clock choice. This may point to a possible solution of the clock issue in quantum cosmology if there exists a suitable class of clocks all yielding identical relevant physical consequences.

description: El uso recreativo en los pinares de los valles de Lozoya y Valsaín (sierra de Guadarrama) se ha valorado por medio de dos encuestas de valoración contingente. En la primera encuesta se ha utilizado la disponibilidad a pagar por un aumento del gasto de viaje como medio de pago. En la segunda encuesta se ha utilizado una hipotética entrada como medio de pago. También se han estudiado las preferencias paisajísticas de los visitantes, así como la influencia del indulto de la corta maderera de árboles extraadultos en su disfrute, estimándose la disposición al pago por la interrupción total de la corta maderera. Los resultados muestran importantes divergencias entre las dos encuestas respecto a la estimación del valor de uso recreativo actual. Igualmente se ha identificado la influencia de la corta maderera en la satisfacción de los visitantes y una preferencia por zonas aclaradas con árboles de edades muy avanzadas.....The recreational use in the Lozoya and Valsain valleys pine-forests (sierra de Guadarrama) has been measured by means of two contingent valuation surveys. The first survey uses increases in trip cost as payment vehicle. The second one uses a hypothetical entrance fee as payment vehicle. Landscape preferences of the visitors have also been studied, as well as the influence of over-adult trees on their welfare, estimating the willingness to pay for interrupting timber felling. Results show great differences between the estimations obtained for the recreational use with the two surveys. Timber felling has proven to affect visitors’ welfare and the preference for areas with very old trees has been identified.
Physical Origin of the Boson Peak Deduced from a Two-Order-Parameter Model of Liquid

description: We propose that the boson peak originates from the (quasi-) localized vibrational modes associated with long-lived locally favored structures, which are intrinsic to a liquid state and are randomly distributed in a sea of normal-liquid structures. This tells us that the number density of locally favored structures is an important physical factor determining the intensity of the boson peak. In our two-order-parameter model of the liquid-glass transition, the locally favored structures act as impurities disturbing crystallization and thus lead to vitrification. This naturally explains the dependence of the intensity of the boson peak on temperature, pressure, and fragility, and also the close correlation between the boson peak and the first sharp diffraction peak (or prepeak).

description: We investigated how patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) and patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) process an increase in the frequency of social interaction. We used an EEG-compatible version of the online ball-tossing game Cyberball to induce an increase in the frequency of social interaction. In the first condition, each player received the ball equally often (inclusion: 33% ball reception). In the following condition, the frequency of the ball reception was increased (overinclusion: 45% ball reception). The main outcome variable was the event-related potential P2, an indicator for social reward processing. Moreover, positive emotions were assessed. Twenty-eight patients with SAD, 29 patients with BPD and 28 healthy controls (HCs) participated. As expected, HCs and patients with BPD, but not patients with SAD, showed an increase in the P2 amplitude from the inclusion to the overinclusion condition. Contrary to our expectations, positive emotions did not change from the inclusion to the overinclusion condition. EEG results provide preliminary evidence that patients with BPD and HCs, but not patients with SAD, process an increase in the frequency of social interaction as rewarding.

description: We investigate the effect of inhomogeneous Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) on antiferromagnetic spin-wave propagation theoretically and numerically. We find that antiferromagnetic spin waves can be amplified at a boundary where the DMI varies. The inhomogeneous DMI also provides a way to construct a magnonic crystal with forbidden and allowed antiferromagnetic spin-wave bands in terahertz frequency ranges. In contrast to ferromagnetic spin waves, antiferromagnetic spin waves experience a polarization-dependent phase shift when passing through the inhomogeneous DMI, offering a magnonic crystal that also serves as a spin-wave polarizer.

description: La medición de la renta del uso múltiple de la tierra ha sido postergada en el pasado en parte por el desarrollo de la especialización productiva de la agricultura. Las tierras forestales no ven reflejada toda su renta de mercado en la estadística oficial de la renta de la selvicultura, ya que esta última sólo tiene en cuenta la producción final, mientras que el monte mediterráneo aporta la mayor parte de su renta forestal comercial en forma de producción intermedia. En este estudio se aplica un sistema nuevo de cuentas que incorpora el uso múltiple de un monte mediterráneo representativo de los alcornocales de las sierras de Cádiz y Málaga. Los resultados muestran que los pastos de un alcornocal de la sierra del Aljibe próximo al estado estacionario ofrecen un margen neto de explotación superior al respectivo de la saca de corcho. También se muestra que la renta total comercial se ve notablemente influida por las variaciones de los precios de la tierra. Se discuten la eficiencia y la equidad de las subvenciones públicas a la conservación del alcornocal sobre la base del interés social del empleo generado y las ganancias potenciales de beneficios ambientales.....The income measurement of the multiple land uses has been missed because the past monoculture agriculture development policy. Official silviculture income statistics take into account commercial final output, and intermediate output is forgotten. The most valuable Mediterranean forest commercial products are grazing resources and other minor products. This research shows that cork oak grazing resources, in a representative large forest farm of Cádiz and Málaga sierras, account more operating income than the cork stripping income. Furthermore, commercial total cork oak income is significantly influenced by holding gains. Government subsidies could be a efficiency and equity way in maintain environmental values and employments in cork oak mountain Mediterranean areas in south of Spain.
