description: Methanol and formaldehyde are two simple organic molecules that are ubiquitously detected in the interstellar medium. An origin in the solid phase and a subsequent nonthermal desorption into the gas phase is often invoked to explain their abundances in some of the environments where they are found. Experimental simulations under astrophysically relevant conditions have been carried out to find a suitable mechanism for that process. We explore the in situ formation and subsequent photon-induced desorption of these species, studying the UV photoprocessing of pure ethanol ice, and a more realistic binary H2O:CH4 ice analog. Ice samples deposited onto an infrared transparent window at 8 K were UV-irradiated using a microwave-discharged hydrogen flow lamp. Evidence of photochemical production of these two species and subsequent UV-photon-induced desorption into the gas phase were searched for by means of a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and a quadrupole mass spectrometer, respectively. Formation of CH3OH was only observed during photoprocessing of the H2O:CH4 ice analog, but no photon-induced desorption was detected. Photochemical production of H2CO was observed in both series of experiments. Photochemidesorption of formaldehyde, i.e., photon-induced formation on the ice surface and inmediate desorption, was observed, with a yield of 4.4 x 10-4 (molecules/incident photon) when the H2O:CH4 ice analogs were photoprocessed. While certain C-bearing species, in particular H2CO, were found to desorb upon irradiation, nonthermal desorption of CH3OH was not observed. So far, there is no experimental evidence of any efficient CH3 OH desorption induced by UV photons.

description: We theoretically consider a graphene ripple as a Brownian particle coupled to an energy storage circuit. When circuit and particle are at the same temperature, the second law forbids harvesting energy from the thermal motion of the Brownian particle, even if the circuit contains a rectifying diode. However, when the circuit contains a junction followed by two diodes wired in opposition, the approach to equilibrium may become ultraslow. Detailed balance is temporarily broken as current flows between the two diodes and charges storage capacitors. The energy harvested by each capacitor comes from the thermal bath of the diodes while the system obeys the first and second laws of thermodynamics.

description: Dust attenuation affects nearly all observational aspects of galaxy evolution, yet very little is known about the form of the dust-attenuation law in the distant Universe. Here, we model the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of galaxies at z = 1.5--3 from CANDELS with rest-frame UV to near-IR imaging under different assumptions about the dust law, and compare the amount of inferred attenuated light with the observed infrared (IR) luminosities. Some individual galaxies show strong Bayesian evidence in preference of one dust law over another, and this preference agrees with their observed location on the plane of infrared excess (IRX, $L_{\text{TIR}}/L_{\text{UV}}$) and UV slope ($β$). We generalize the shape of the dust law with an empirical model, $A_{λ,δ}=E(B-V)\ k_λ (λ/λ_V)^δ$ where $k_λ$ is the dust law of Calzetti et al. (2000), and show that there exists a correlation between the color excess ${E(B-V)}$ and tilt $δ$ with ${δ=(0.62\pm0.05)\log(E(B-V))}$+ ${(0.26~\pm~0.02)}$. Galaxies with high color excess have a shallower, starburst-like law, and those with low color excess have a steeper, SMC-like law. Surprisingly, the galaxies in our sample show no correlation between the shape of the dust law and stellar mass, star-formation rate, or $β$. The change in the dust law with color excess is consistent with a model where attenuation is caused by by scattering, a mixed star-dust geometry, and/or trends with stellar population age, metallicity, and dust grain size. This rest-frame UV-to-near-IR method shows potential to constrain the dust law at even higher ($z>3$) redshifts.

description: We propose an extension of the Contextual Graph Markov Model, a deep and probabilistic machine learning model for graphs, to model the distribution of edge features. Our approach is architectural, as we introduce an additional Bayesian network mapping edge features into discrete states to be used by the original model. In doing so, we are also able to build richer graph representations even in the absence of edge features, which is confirmed by the performance improvements on standard graph classification benchmarks. Moreover, we successfully test our proposal in a graph regression scenario where edge features are of fundamental importance, and we show that the learned edge representation provides substantial performance improvements against the original model on three link prediction tasks. By keeping the computational complexity linear in the number of edges, the proposed model is amenable to large-scale graph processing.

It is shown that the functions arising from the procedure ii) are the MaxEnt solutions to the entropy emerging from i). The present treatment is free of the poles that, for classic quadratic Hamiltonians, appear in Tsallis' approach, as demonstrated in [Europhysics Letters {\bf 104}, (2013), 60003]. Additionally, we show that our treatment is compatible with extant date on the ozone layer.

description: The Raman spectrum of plutonium dioxide is studied both experimentally and theoretically. Particular attention has been devoted to the identification of high-energy modes at $2120$ cm$^{-1}$ and $2625$ cm$^{-1}$, the attribution of which has so far been controversial. The temperature dependence of both modes suggests an electronic origin. Crystal Field (CF) calculations reported in this work shows that these two modes can be respectively assigned to the $Γ_{1}$ $\rightarrow$ $Γ_{5}$ and $Γ_{1}$ $\rightarrow $ $Γ_{3}$ CF transitions within the $^{5}I_{4}$ manifold. These two modes, together with the only vibrational line foreseen by the group theory for the Fm${-3}$m PuO$_{2}$ symmetry the T$_{2g}$ PuO stretching mode observed at $478$ cm$^{-1}$ can thus be used as Raman fingerprint of fcc plutonium dioxide.

Axial form factors of the octet baryons in a covariant quark model

description: We study the weak interaction axial form factors of the octet baryons, within the covariant spectator quark model, focusing on the dependence of four-momentum transfer squared, Q^2. In our model the axial form factors G_A(Q^2) (axial-vector form factor) and G_P(Q^2) (induced pseudoscalar form factor), are calculated based on the constituent quark axial form factors and the octet baryon wave functions. The quark axial current is parametrized by the two constituent quark form factors, the axial-vector form factor g_A^q(Q^2), and the induced pseudoscalar form factor g_P^q(Q^2). The baryon wave functions are composed of a dominant S-state and a P-state mixture for the relative angular momentum of the quarks. First, we study in detail the nucleon case. We assume that the quark axial-vector form factor g_A^q(Q^2) has the same function form as that of the quark electromagnetic isovector form factor. The remaining parameters of the model, the P-state mixture and the Q^2-dependence of g_P^q(Q^2), are determined by a fit to the nucleon axial form factor data obtained by lattice QCD simulations with large pion masses. In this lattice QCD regime the meson cloud effects are small, and the physics associated with the valence quarks can be better calibrated. Once the valence quark model is calibrated, we extend the model to the physical regime, and use the low Q^2 experimental data to estimate the meson cloud contributions for G_A(Q^2) and G_P(Q^2). Using the calibrated quark axial form factors, and the generalization of the nucleon wave function for the other octet baryon members, we make predictions for all the possible weak interaction axial form factors G_A(Q^2) and G_P(Q^2) of the octet baryons. The results are compared with the corresponding experimental data for G_A(0), and with the estimates of baryon-meson models based on SU(6) symmetry.

description: Im Alter spielt neben der Gesundheit die Mobilität eine zentrale Rolle. Auf der einen Seite legt sie den Grundstein für gesellschaftliche Teilhabe und beeinflusst damit in hohem Maße die Lebensqualität. Auf der anderen Seite verändert sich mit zunehmendem Alter die Art und Weise, wie individuelle Mobilität gestaltet wird. Aspekte wie Effizienz rücken oftmals in den Hintergrund, während Faktoren wie Selbstverwirklichung und Wohlbefinden immer stärker im Vordergrund stehen. Mit steigendem Alter nehmen aber meist auch körperliche Einschränkungen zu, aus denen sich zusätzliche Anforderungen an die Mobilität ableiten. Digitale Technologien, die im Rahmen der aktuellen Diskussion zur Mobilität der Zukunft große Beachtung genießen, bieten vielfältige Möglichkeiten, innovative Produkte und Dienstleistungen zu entwickeln und bereitzustellen. Diese können ihr Potenzial zur Verbesserung der Mobilität von älteren Menschen aber nur dann entfalten, wenn sich die Entwicklung nicht allein auf die Technik konzentriert, sondern auch Aspekte wie Nutzerfreundlichkeit und Akzeptanz bei der Zielgruppe hinreichend berücksichtigt.

description: For older people, mobility plays a role second only to health. It is essential for participation in society and, as such, conditions one’s quality of life. But individual mobility changes shape as one grows older: aspects like efficiency become less crucial, while personal fulfillment and wellbeing grow in importance. Physical limitations place additional demands on mobility. However, digital technologies, which in any case play a leading role in current discussions on the future of mobility, offer many opportunities in terms of innovative products and services for older members of society. But these can only effectively enhance mobility if they take adequate account of the specific requirements of this target group – aspects like user-friendliness and acceptance.
The BL-Lac gamma-ray blazar PKS 1424+240 associated with a group of galaxies at z=0.6010

description: PKS 1424+240 is a BL-Lac blazar with unknown redshift that was detected at high-energy gamma rays by Fermi-LAT with a hard spectrum. At VHE, it was first detected by VERITAS and later confirmed by MAGIC. Its spectral energy distribution is highly attenuated at VHE gamma rays, which is coherent with distant sources. Several estimations enabled the redshift to be constrained to the range 0.6 < z < 1.3. These results place PKS 1424+240 in the very interesting condition of being probably the most distant blazar that has been detected at VHE. The ambiguity in the redshift is still large enough to prevent precise studies of the EBL and the intrinsic blazar spectrum. Given the difficulty of measuring spectroscopic redshifts for BL-Lac objects directly, we aim to establish a reliable redshift value for this blazar by finding its host group of galaxies. Elliptical galaxies are associated with groups, and BL-Lac objects are typically hosted by them, so we decided to search for the host group of the blazar. For this, we performed optical spectroscopic observations of thirty objects in the field of view of PKS 1424+240 using the Gemini MOS. After analysing the data for groups, we evaluated the probability of finding groups of galaxies by chance around the position of PKS 1424+240, using a deep catalogue of groups. We also used photometric data from the SDSS catalogue to analyse the red sequence of the proposed blazar host group. We found a new group of galaxies with eight members at z = 0.6010 +- 0.003, a virial radius of R_vir = 1.53 Mpc, and a velocity dispersion of sigma_v = 813 +- 187 km/s. The photometric study indicates that more members are probably populating this previously uncatalogued group of galaxies. The probability of PKS 1424+240 being a member of this group was found to be 98%. The new group of galaxies found at z = 0.6010 +- 0.003 is very likely hosting PKS 1424+240.

description: This research argues in order to challenge dominant paradigms of coloniality and whiteness in social design practice, there is a need to address the politics inherent in the people doing the practice. The research sets ontological orientations through the politicised self and diverse worldviews. It seeks to address the politics of practices from different entry points: ways of knowing and ignorances; ways of doing and critical-dialogical approaches to practice; and practitioners’ ways of being that address the complexity of their own dominating paradigms. The contribution of this research is “shifting”, as a concept and practice to account for ontological orientations.

description: The Bessel process with parameter $D>1$ and the Dyson model of interacting Brownian motions with coupling constant $β>0$ are extended to the processes in which the drift term and the interaction terms are given by the logarithmic derivatives of Jacobi's theta functions. They are called the elliptic Bessel process, eBES$^{(D)}$, and the elliptic Dyson model, eDYS$^{(β)}$, respectively. Both are realized on the circumference of a circle $[0, 2 πr)$ with radius $r >0$ as temporally inhomogeneous processes defined in a finite time interval $[0, t_*), t_* < \infty$. Transformations of them to Schrödinger-type equations with time-dependent potentials lead us to proving that eBES$^{(D)}$ and eDYS$^{(β)}$ can be constructed as the time-dependent Girsanov transformations of Brownian motions. In the special cases where $D=3$ and $β=2$, observables of the processes are defined and the processes are represented for them using the Brownian paths winding round a circle and pinned at time $t_*$. We show that eDYS$^{(2)}$ has the determinantal martingale representation for any observable. Then it is proved that eDYS$^{(2)}$ is determinantal for all observables for any finite initial configuration without multiple points. Determinantal processes are stochastic integrable systems in the sense that all spatio-temporal correlation functions are given by determinants controlled by a single continuous function called the spatio-temporal correlation kernel.

Photon Number Conserving Models of H II Bubbles during Reionization

description: Traditional excursion set based models of H II bubble growth during the epoch of reionization are known to violate photon number conservation, in the sense that the mass fraction in ionized bubbles in these models does not equal the ratio of the number of ionizing photons produced by sources and the number of hydrogen atoms in the intergalactic medium. E.g., for a Planck13 cosmology with electron scattering optical depth $τ\simeq0.066$, the discrepancy is $\sim15$ per cent for $x_{\rm HII}=0.1$ and $\sim5$ per cent for $x_{\rm HII}=0.5$. We demonstrate that this problem arises from a fundamental conceptual shortcoming of the excursion set approach (already recognised in the literature on this formalism) which only tracks average mass fractions instead of the exact, stochastic source counts. With this insight, we build an approximately photon number conserving Monte Carlo model of bubble growth based on partitioning regions of dark matter into halos. Our model, which is formally valid for white noise initial conditions (ICs), shows dramatic improvements in photon number conservation, as well as substantial differences in the bubble size distribution, as compared to traditional models. We explore the trends obtained on applying our algorithm to more realistic ICs, finding that these improvements are robust to changes in the ICs. Since currently popular semi-numerical schemes of bubble growth also violate photon number conservation, we argue that it will be worthwhile to pursue new, explicitly photon number conserving approaches. Along the way, we clarify some misconceptions regarding this problem that have appeared in the literature.

description: We generalize the state-of-the-art perturbative Equation of State of cold quark matter to nonzero temperatures, needed in the description of neutron star mergers and core collapse processes. The new result is accurate to order g^5 in the gauge coupling, and is based on a novel framework for dealing with the infrared sensitive soft field modes of the theory. The zero Matsubara mode sector is treated using a dimensionally reduced effective theory, while the soft non-zero modes are resummed using the Hard Thermal Loop approximation. This combination of known effective descriptions offers unprecedented access to small but nonzero temperatures, both in and out of beta equilibrium.

description: We experimentally investigate active motion of spherical Janus colloidal particles in a viscoelastic fluid. Self-propulsion is achieved by a local concentration gradient of a critical polymer mixture which is imposed by laser illumination. Even in the regime where the fluid's viscosity is independent from the deformation rate induced by the particle, we find a remarkable increase of up to two orders of magnitude of the rotational diffusion with increasing particle velocity, which can be phenomenologically described by an effective rotational diffusion coefficient dependent on the Weissenberg number. We show that this effect gives rise to a highly anisotropic response of microswimmers in viscoelastic media to external forces depending on its orientation.

In this article we elaborate on the potential of social innovation and especially digital social innovation to tackle digitally excluded persons needs. Public internet access points are key infrastructures driving the digital inclusion of marginalized persons. Empirical results presented in this paper shows that these players act socially innovative by creating collaborative spaces for digital inclusion, by developing hybrid staff competence pro files and by creating community-based, intergenerational learning content. The paper relates research perspectives from the social innovation and the digital inclusion discourse and argues against the background of research and development results of six EU funded projects on social innovation and/or digital inclusion in the years 2011

description: We introduce a generalized information criterion that contains other well-known information criteria, such as Bayesian information Criterion (BIC) and Akaike information criterion (AIC), as special cases. Furthermore, the proposed spectral information criterion (SIC) is also more general than the other information criteria, e.g., since the knowledge of a likelihood function is not strictly required. SIC extracts geometric features of the error curve and, as a consequence, it can be considered an automatic elbow detector. SIC provides a subset of all possible models, with a cardinality that often is much smaller than the total number of possible models. The elements of this subset are elbows of the error curve. A practical rule for selecting a unique model within the sets of elbows is suggested as well. Theoretical invariance properties of SIC are analyzed. Moreover, we test SIC in ideal scenarios where provides always the optimal expected results. We also test SIC in several numerical experiments: some involving synthetic data, and two experiments involving real datasets. They are all real-world applications such as clustering, variable selection, or polynomial order selection, to name a few. The results show the benefits of the proposed scheme. Matlab code related to the experiments is also provided. Possible future research lines are finally discussed.

description: BACKGROUND: While traditional cigarette use has declined steadily over the years in America, particularly among youth; it has been met with an increase in vaping and e-cigarette use. Current research suggests a relationship between parent attitudes and child tobacco use, however less is known about parental attitudes toward their child’s risk of and current use of e-cigarettes. With youth e-cigarette prevalence continuing to rise, research highlights the importance of parent-specific messaging. Further understanding parental attitudes toward e-cigarette use and self-efficacy in communicating about e-cigarettes with their children may help support these conversations and tailored messaging. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to conduct a scoping review of the current literature surrounding parent attitudes towards youth e-cigarette use, how these perceptions relate to child use patterns and to investigate parents’ self-efficacy in talking with their children about e-cigarettes. METHODOLOGY: A systematic search for studies examining parental attitudes toward youth e-cigarette use will be conducted across MEDLINE PubMed, Embase (Elsevier), Dissertation & Theses (ProQuest), CINAHL, ERIC and PsycInfo (EBSOChost), and Web of Science (Clarivate) from January 2013 to August 2022. Google Scholar will also be searched for additional peer-reviewed and grey literature. Two reviewers will screen independently to identify articles for inclusion. Inclusion criteria for studies are parental outcomes including measurement of attitudes toward e-cigarettes among parents and published in the English language. Results & Conclusions: Data will be extracted from included articles. Reviewers will use Qualtrics to extract data into an online form. We will use a descriptive analytical method to help summarize key findings. Synthesizing current findings will provide insight into the role parental attitudes play in youth e-cigarette use and how to support the development of effective communication strategies to support parents in talking with their children about e-cigarettes.

description: In a previous study, an unexpected u-shaped relationship was observed between load level and fatigue/recovery responses. Moderate load levels resulted in lower perceived discomfort, pain, and fatigue, and shorter recovery times compared to either low or high load levels. This phenomenon has been reported in other studies, but no article has examined the possible mechanisms that might explain this u-shaped relationship. In this paper, we re-examined the previously published data and found that the phenomenon does not appear to be due to the experimental artefact; the u-shape may be due to unexpectedly lower fatigue effects at moderate loads, and higher fatigue effects at lower loads. We then conducted a literature review and identified several possible physiological, perceptual, and biomechanical explanatory mechanisms. No single mechanism explains the entirety of the phenomenon. Further research is needed on the relationship between work exposures, fatigue, and recovery, and the mechanisms related to the u-shaped relationship. Practitioner summary: We examine a previously observed u-shaped relationship between load level and fatigue/recovery, where moderate force resulted in lower perceived fatigue and shorter recovery times. A u-shaped fatigue response suggests that simply minimising load levels might not be an optimal approach to reduce the risk of workplace injuries.
Occupation times of intervals until last passage times for spectrally negative Levy processes

description: In this paper, we derive the joint Laplace transforms of occupation times until its last passage times as well as its positions. Motivated by Baurdoux [2], the last times before an independent exponential variable are studied. By applying dual arguments, explicit formulas are derived in terms of new analytical identities from Loeffen et al. [12].

description: Human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) derived from the tracheo-bronchial regions of human airways provide an excellent in vitro model for studying pathological mechanisms and evaluating therapeutics in human airway cells. This cell population comprises a mixed population of basal cells (BCs), the predominant stem cell in airways capable of both self-renewal and functional differentiation. Despite their potential for regenerative medicine, BCs exhibit significant phenotypic variability in culture. To investigate how culture conditions influence BC phenotype and function, we expanded three independent BC isolates in three media , airway epithelial cell growth medium (AECGM), dual-Smad inhibitor (DSI)-enriched AECGM, and Pneumacult Ex plus (PEx+). Extensive RNA sequencing, immune assays and electrical measurements revealed that PEx+ media significantly drove cell proliferation and a broad pro-inflammatory phenotype in BCs.. In contrast, BCs expanded in AECGM, displayed increased expression of structural and extracellular matrix components at high passage. Whereas culture in AECGM increased expression of some cytokines at high passage, DSI suppressed inflammation altogether thus implicating TGF-ß in BC inflammatory processes. Differentiation capacity declined with time in culture irrespective of expansion media except for PLUNC expressing secretory cells that were elevated at high passage in AECGM and PEx+ suggestive of an immune modulatory role of PLUNC in BCs. These findings underscore the profound impact of media conditions on inflammatory niche and function of in vitro expanded BCs. The broad pro-inflammatory phenotype driven by PEx+ media, in particular, should be considered in the development of cell-based models for airway diseases and therapeutic application.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study SU(2) gauge theory with two fermion flavors in the adjoint representation. Using a clover improved HEX smeared action and the gradient flow running coupling allows us to simulate with larger lattice size than before. We find an infrared fixed point after a continuum extrapolation in the range $4.5 \lesssim g^{*2} \lesssim 5$. We also measure the mass anomalous dimension and find the value $ 0.25 \lesssim γ^* \lesssim 0.28 $ at the fixed point.
