description: A study on cosmogenic activation in germanium was carried out to evaluate the cosmogenic background level of natural and $^{70}$Ge depleted germanium detectors. The production rates of long-lived radionuclides were calculated with Geant4 and CRY. Results were validated by comparing the simulated and experimental spectra of CDEX-1B detector. Based on the validated codes, the cosmogenic background level was predicted for further tonne-scale CDEX experiment. The suppression of cosmogenic background level could be achieved by underground germanium crystal growth and high-purity germanium detector fabrication to reach the sensitivity requirement for direct detection of dark matter. With the low cosmogenic background, new physics channels, such as solar neutrino research and neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments, were opened and the corresponding simulations and evaluations were carried out.

description: New frustrated antiferromagnetic compounds CuRE2Ge2O8 (RE=Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu) have been investigated using high-resolution x-ray diffraction, magnetic and heat capacity measurements. These systems show different magnetic lattices depending on rare-earth element. The nonmagnetic Eu compound is a S=1/2 two-dimensional triangular antiferromagnetic lattice oriented in the ac plane with geometrical frustration. On the other hand, the Pr, Nd, and Sm compounds show a three-dimensional honeycomb-tunnel-like lattice made of RE^3+ running along the a axis with the characteristic behavior of frustrated antiferromagnets.

description: Excerpts from the report Foreword: The marked expansion in the direct marketing of hogs in the last decade gave rise to a number of troublesome questions and problems to which the Bureau of Agricultural Economics for some time has been giving attention. These questions took on added importance in connection with programs considered under the Agricultural Adjustment Act and the Secretary of Agriculture requested that the study be completed as soon as possible. The study shows that the development of direct marketing of hogs is associated with the expansion and shifts in the areas of corn and hog production and with the decentralization of the packing industry. Its growth has been facilitated by the extension of good roads and the rise of motor transportation as well as by more favorable freight rates on hog products than on live hogs. The lower labor costs usually found in smaller cities and towns also have contributed to the decentralization of the packing industry and to the growth of direct marketing. In general, the study shows that direct marketing has not operated to the disadvantage of hog producers. It does point out, however, that direct marketing has substantially reduced the number of hogs received for sale at public markets which has adversely affected the interests of stockyard operators and market agencies at some public markets.

description: Robust simulation is essential for reliable operation and planning of transmission and distribution power grids. At present, disparate methods exist for steady-state analysis of the transmission (power flow) and distribution power grid (three-phase power flow). Due to the non-linear nature of the problem, it is difficult for alternating current (AC) power flow and three-phase power flow analyses to ensure convergence to the correct physical solution, particularly from arbitrary initial conditions, or when evaluating a change (e.g. contingency) in the grid. In this paper, we describe our equivalent circuit formulation approach with current and voltage variables that models both the positive sequence network of the transmission grid and three-phase network of the distribution grid without loss of generality. The proposed circuit models and formalism enable the extension and application of circuit simulation techniques to solve for the steady-state solution with excellent robustness of convergence. Examples for positive sequence transmission and three-phase distribution systems, including actual 75k+ nodes Eastern Interconnection transmission test cases and 8k+ nodes taxonomy distribution test cases, are solved from arbitrary initial guesses to demonstrate the efficacy of our approach.

description: We propose a lattice model for strongly interacting electrons with the potential to explain the main phenomenology of the strange metal phase in the cuprate high temperature superconductors. Our model is motivated by the recently developed "tetrahedron" rank-3 tensor model that mimics much of the physics of the better-known Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. Our electron model has the following advantageous properties: (1) it only needs one orbital per site on the square lattice; (2) it does not require any quenched random interaction; (3) it has local interactions and respects all the symmetries of the system; (4) the soluble limit of this model has a longitudinal DC resistivity that scales linearly with temperature within a finite temperature window; (5) again the soluble limit of this model has a fermion pairing instability in the infrared, which can lead to either superconductivity or a "pseudogap" phase. The linear$-T$ longitudinal resistivity and the pairing instability originate from the generic scaling feature of the SYK model and the tetrahedron tensor model.

description: We present a search for new members of the 300 km s$^{-1}$ stream (300S) near the dwarf galaxy Segue 1 using wide-field survey data. We identify 11 previously unknown bright stream members in the APOGEE-2 and SEGUE-1 and 2 spectroscopic surveys. Based on the spatial distribution of the high-velocity stars, we confirm for the first time that this kinematic structure is associated with a 24$^{\circ}$-long stream seen in SDSS and Pan-STARRS imaging data. The 300S stars display a metallicity range of $-2.17 < {\rm [Fe/H]} < -1.24$, with an intrinsic dispersion of 0.21$_{-0.09}^{+0.12}$ dex. They also have chemical abundance patterns similar to those of Local Group dwarf galaxies, as well as that of the Milky Way halo. Using the open-source code galpy to model the orbit of the stream, we find that the progenitor of the stream passed perigalacticon about 70 Myr ago, with a closest approach to the Galactic Center of about 4.1 kpc. Using Pan-STARRS DR1 data, we obtain an integrated stream luminosity of $4 \times 10^3$ L$_{\odot}$. We conclude that the progenitor of the stream was a dwarf galaxy that is probably similar to the satellites that were accreted to build the present-day Milky Way halo.

description: Mergers of double neutron stars are considered the most likely progenitors for short gamma-ray bursts. Indeed such a merger can produce a black hole with a transient accreting torus of nuclear matter (Lee & Ramirez-Ruiz 2007, Oechslin & Janka 2006), and the conversion of a fraction of the torus mass-energy to radiation can power a gamma-ray burst (Nakar 2006). Using available binary pulsar observations supported by our extensive evolutionary calculations of double neutron star formation, we demonstrate that the fraction of mergers that can form a black hole -- torus system depends very sensitively on the (largely unknown) maximum neutron star mass. We show that the available observations and models put a very stringent constraint on this maximum mass under the assumption that a black hole formation is required to produce a short gamma-ray burst in a double neutron star merger. Specifically, we find that the maximum neutron star mass must be within 2 - 2.5 Msun. Moreover, a single unambiguous measurement of a neutron star mass above 2.5 Msun would exclude a black hole -- torus central engine model of short gamma-ray bursts in double neutron star mergers. Such an observation would also indicate that if in fact short gamma-ray bursts are connected to neutron star mergers, the gamma-ray burst engine is best explained by the lesser known model invoking a highly magnetized massive neutron star (e.g., Usov 1992; Kluzniak & Ruderman 1998; Dai et al. 2006; Metzger, Quataert & Thompson 2007).

A path-integral approach to polynomial invariants of links

description: A brief review of a self-contained genuinely three-dimensional monodromy-matrix based non-perturbative covariant path-integral approach to {\it polynomial invariants} of knots and links in the framework of (topological) quantum Chern-Simons field theory is given. An idea of ``physical'' observables represented by an auxiliary topological quantum-mechanics model in an external gauge field is introduced substituting rather a limited notion of the Wilson loop. Thus, the possibility of using various generalizations of the Chern-Simons action (also higher-dimensional ones) as well as a purely functional language becomes open. The theory is quantized in the framework of the best suited in this case {\it antibracket-antifield} formalism of Batalin and Vilkovisky. Using the Stokes theorem and formal translational invariance of the path-integral measure a {\it monodromy matrix} corresponding to an arbitrary pair of irreducible representations of an arbitrary semi-simple Lie group is derived.

description: Preliminary pharmacological studies revealed that the EtOAc fraction (BGEA) might be the main active fraction with anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects in Beaumontia grandiflora Wall. Further assays on BGEA at doses of 200, 400, and 800 mg/kg using four animal models showed that it could inhibit the xylene-induced ear edema, carrageenan-induced paw edema, and acetic acid-induced writhing and prolong the latency time in the hot-plate test. ELISA analysis revealed that the anti-inflammatory activity of BGEA might be associated with the decrease of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels and the increase of the IL-10 level. The acute toxicity test showed that except for the n-BuOH fraction, the LD50 values of the extract and other three fractions were higher than 2000 mg/kg bw. Finally, 14 compounds were identified from BGEA by LC-MS. This research provides some basis for the folk use of B. grandiflora in the treatment of inflammation and pain-related diseases.

description: The physical evolution of low-mass protostars is relatively well-established, however, there are many open questions on the chemical structure of protostars. The chemical fingerprint generated in the early embedded phase of star formation may be transmitted to the later stages of star, planet and comet formation. The factors that influence the chemical fingerprint are then of interest to study, and determine whether the chemical structure is inherited from the parent cloud or product of the physical processes during star formation. Results of observations and modelling of molecules that trace the cold and warm extended structures of embedded protostars are briefly presented here. Two multiple protostellar systems are studied, IRAS 16293-2422 and VLA 1623-2417, both located in $ρ$ Ophiuchus. We find that the physical structure of the protostars, that is the disk(-like) strucutres, outflow cavity and different luminosities, are important factors in determining the chemical structure of these embedded protostars.

description: The recent development of general quantum resource theories has given a sound basis for the quantification of useful quantum effects. Nevertheless, the evaluation of a resource measure can be highly non-trivial, involving an optimisation that is often intractable analytically or intensive numerically. In this paper, we describe a general framework that provides quantitative lower bounds to any resource quantifier that satisfies the essential property of monotonicity under the corresponding set of free operations. Our framework relies on projecting all quantum states onto a restricted subset using a fixed resource non-increasing operation. The resources of the resultant family can then be evaluated using a simplified optimisation, with the result providing lower bounds on the resource contents of any state. This approach also reduces the experimental overhead, requiring only the relevant statistics of the restricted family of states. We illustrate the application of our framework by focusing on the resource of multiqubit entanglement and outline applications to other quantum resources.

description: We investigate the low energy properties of string vacua with spontaneously broken $N=1$ supersymmetry by a dilaton $F$-term. As a consequence of the universal couplings of the dilaton, the supersymmetric mass spectrum is determined in terms of only three independent parameters and more constrained than in the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. For a $μ$-term induced by the \K\ potential the parameter space becomes two-dimensional; in the allowed regions of this parameter space we find that most supersymmetric particles are determined solely by the gluino mass. The Higgs is rather light and the top-quark mass always lower than 180 GeV.

description: Waterfall and Extreme Programming are two software project methods used for project management. Although there are a number of opinions comparing the two methods regarding how they should be applied, none have used project data to clearly conclude which one is better. In this paper, we present the results of a controlled empirical study conducted at Carnegie Mellon University in Silicon Valley to learn about the effective transition from traditional development to agile development. We conducted a comparison research against these two approaches. Multiple teams were assigned a project; some used Waterfall development, others used Extreme Programming. The purpose of this research is to look at advantages and disadvantages based upon the outcomes, generated artifacts, and metrics produced by the teams.

description: We experimentally investigate the unitarity-limited behavior of the three-body loss near a p-wave Feshbach resonance in a single-component Fermi gas of $^6$Li atoms. At the unitarity limit, the three-body loss coefficient $L_{3}$ exhibits universality in the sense that it is independent of the interaction strength and follows the predicted temperature scaling law of $L_3 \propto T^{-2}$. When decreasing the interaction strength from the unitarity regime, the three-body loss coefficient as a function of the interaction strength and temperature can be described by the theory based on the association of an excited resonant quasibound state and its relaxation into a deep stable dimer by collision with a third atom in the framework of the standard Breit-Wigner theoretical approach. The results reported here are important to understand the properties of a resonant p-wave Fermi gas in the prospect of quantum few- and many-body physics.

description: Rising social inequalities, environmental degradation and climate change are increasingly acknowledged as major threats to the long-term prosperity of modern economies. Significant attention has thus been placed on sustainability transitions in European policymaking to drive change towards a more inclusive and environmentally sustainable socio-economic system. Alongside these policy initiatives and frameworks, there has also been a rise in European tools for monitoring and measuring progress in different domains. The objective of this paper is to analyse the sustainability transition at the regional level in Europe based on a theoretical framework which links the main pillars of the sustainable development paradigm (in line with the 2030 agenda) with those of the human development paradigm. Using a dataset constructed at the nomenclature of territorial units for statistics (NUTS)2 level for 2010–2019, the Sustainable Development and Human Development Index (SDHD) is developed and a spatial and econometric analysis is applied to identify spatio-temporal trends, clustering and the main determinants and spatial spillovers among the index dimensions. This contributes to the relative gap in studies covering multiple domains of sustainability across all European regions. Results highlight strong regional inequalities in both the SDHD and four domains across Europe, with a noticeable core–periphery divide. There is evidence of convergence across the EU-27, with Eastern European regions scoring the lowest but improving the most. From a spatial fixed-effects regression model, we find significant spatial dependence among neighbouring regions and that gender gaps in the labour market, teenage fertility rates and low educational attainment are significant negative determinants of SDHD.

description: The maximal clique enumeration (MCE) problem has numerous applications in biology, chemistry, sociology, and graph modeling. Though this problem is well studied, most current research focuses on finding solutions in large sparse graphs or very dense graphs, while sacrificing efficiency on the most difficult medium-density benchmark instances that are representative of data sets often encountered in practice. We show that techniques that have been successfully applied to the maximum clique problem give significant speed gains over the state-of-the-art MCE algorithms on these instances. Specifically, we show that a simple greedy pivot selection based on a fixed maximum-degree first ordering of vertices, when combined with bit-parallelism, performs consistently better than the theoretical worst-case optimal pivoting of the state-of-the-art algorithms of Tomita et al. [Theoretical Computer Science, 2006] and Naudé [Theoretical Computer Science, 2016]. Experiments show that our algorithm is faster than the worst-case optimal algorithm of Tomita et al. on 60 out of 74 standard structured and random benchmark instances: we solve 48 instances 1.2 to 2.2 times faster, and solve the remaining 12 instances 3.6 to 47.6 times faster. We also see consistent speed improvements over the algorithm of Naudé: solving 61 instances 1.2 to 2.4 times faster. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to achieve such speed-ups compared to these state-of-the-art algorithms on these standard benchmarks.

description: The prevailing orientation in the existing literature on corruption is on its consequences for the socioeconomic dimensions, on a national basis. Using a promising proxy for quality of government (QoG) with substantial potential for further research, we examine the relationship between gross domestic product (GDP) per capita and QoG across 198 European regions from 2009–2022. We enrich the relatively sparse but relevant body of literature on this issue by testing and demonstrating that the reverse causality in this linkage should not be overlooked. We exploit the power of instrumental modelling in a panel data setting, allowing for the inclusion of a new perspective that fits with the place-based rationale of recent European policies. Beyond being of interest to researchers, the results are significant for policymakers and society as a whole.

description: Uveitis is a heterogeneous group of ocular conditions characterized by inflammation of the uveal tract and is one of the leading causes of vision impairment. In developed countries, noninfectious uveitis (NIU) represents most cases and is challenging to treat due to its severity, chronicity, and high recurrence rates. The advent of anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (anti-TNF-α) agents have dramatically improved outcomes and changed treatment paradigms in NIU. The index article summarizes the present experience of anti-TNF-α agents in NIU pharmacotherapy and highlights the barriers to further research and development of anti-TNF-α agents for uveitis. Common challenges faced in NIU clinical drugs trials, specific difficulties in anti-TNF-α drug development, and promising competitor drug candidates are discussed and evaluated. Anti-TNF-α agents have revolutionized NIU pharmacotherapy and greatly improved outcomes with good safety profiles. The great success of systemic infliximab and adalimumab in NIU treatment has resulted in little impetus for further development of this class of medication. Attempts have been made to deliver anti-TNF-α agents intravitreally but that has not been successful thus far. With expiring patents, competition from biosimilars and newer, novel molecules, it may not be viable to continue pursuing anti-TNF-α drug development.

description: In this work we study the deformations into Lie bialgebras of the three relativistic Lie algebras: de Sitter, Anti-de Sitter and Poincaré, which describe the symmetries of the three maximally symmetric spacetimes. These algebras represent the centrepiece of the kinematics of special relativity (and its analogue in (Anti-)de Sitter spacetime), and provide the simplest framework to build physical models in which inertial observers are equivalent. Such a property can be expected to be preserved by Quantum Gravity, a theory which should build a length/energy scale into the microscopic structure of spacetime. Quantum groups, and their infinitesimal version `Lie bialgebras', allow to encode such a scale into a noncommutativity of the algebra of functions over the group (and over spacetime, when the group acts on a homogeneous space). In 2+1 dimensions we have evidence that the vacuum state of Quantum Gravity is one such `noncommutative spacetime' whose symmetries are described by a Lie bialgebra. It is then of great interest to study the possible Lie bialgebra deformations of the relativistic Lie algebras. In this paper, we develop a classification of such deformations in 2, 3 and 4 spacetime dimensions, based on physical requirements based on dimensional analysis, on various degrees of `manifest isotropy' (which implies that certain symmetries, i.e. Lorentz transformations or rotations, are `more classical'), and on discrete symmetries like P and T. On top of a series of new results in 3 and 4 dimensions, we find a no-go theorem for the Lie bialgebras in 4 dimensions, which singles out the well-known `$κ$-deformation' as the only one that depends on the first power of the Planck length, or, alternatively, that possesses `manifest' spatial isotropy.

description: Here we provide a model for the deprojection of the surface brightness profile specially to cover inner region of a barred galaxy. We consider axisymmetric shape to represent disk component and triaxial shape to describe bulge region. We use GALFIT to decompose our simulated barred galaxy image to bulge and disk parts, then we preform MGE fit to each component separately. Finally we use some constraints to reduce degeneracy due to deprojection then compare intrinsic density distribution of our model with mass density of the mock galaxy. As the test of our model we calculated potential, force components and orbit structure of the mock galaxy and deprojected density which obtained from photometry, Results show this method can be used with confidence for the case of barred galaxies with different observational inclination and position angles.

description: We study the dependence of citation counts of e-prints published on the arXiv:astro-ph server on their position in the daily astro-ph listing. Using the SPIRES literature database we reconstruct the astro-ph listings from July 2002 to December 2005 and determine citation counts for e-prints from their ADS entry. We use Zipf plots to analyze the citation distributions for each astro-ph position. We find that e-prints appearing at or near the top of the astro-ph mailings receive significantly more citations than those further down the list. This difference is significant at the 7 sigma level and on average amounts to two times more citations for papers at the top than those further down the listing. We propose three possible non-exclusive explanations for this positional citation effect and try to test them. We conclude that self-promotion by authors plays a role in the observed effect but cannot exclude that increased visibility at the top of the daily listings contributes to higher citation counts as well. We can rule out that the positional dependence of citations is caused by the coincidence of the submission deadline with the working hours of a geographically constrained set of intrinsically higher cited authors. We discuss several ways of mitigating the observed effect, including splitting astro-ph into several subject classes, randomizing the order of e-prints, and a novel approach to sorting entries by relevance to individual readers.

The Quantum Deformed Dirac Equation from the k-Poincare` Algebra

description: In this letter we derive a deformed Dirac equation invariant under the k-Poincare` quantum algebra. A peculiar feature is that the square of the k-Dirac operator is related to the second Casimir (the k-deformed squared Pauli-Lubanski vector). The ``spinorial'' realization of the k-Poincare` is obtained by a contraction of the coproduct of the real form of SO_q(3,2) using the 4-dimensional representation which results to be, up some scalar factors, the same of the undeformed algebra in terms of the usual gamma matrices.

Towards Open-Set Identity Preserving Face Synthesis

description: We propose a framework based on Generative Adversarial Networks to disentangle the identity and attributes of faces, such that we can conveniently recombine different identities and attributes for identity preserving face synthesis in open domains. Previous identity preserving face synthesis processes are largely confined to synthesizing faces with known identities that are already in the training dataset. To synthesize a face with identity outside the training dataset, our framework requires one input image of that subject to produce an identity vector, and any other input face image to extract an attribute vector capturing, e.g., pose, emotion, illumination, and even the background. We then recombine the identity vector and the attribute vector to synthesize a new face of the subject with the extracted attribute. Our proposed framework does not need to annotate the attributes of faces in any way. It is trained with an asymmetric loss function to better preserve the identity and stabilize the training process. It can also effectively leverage large amounts of unlabeled training face images to further improve the fidelity of the synthesized faces for subjects that are not presented in the labeled training face dataset. Our experiments demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed framework. We also present its usage in a much broader set of applications including face frontalization, face attribute morphing, and face adversarial example detection.
Spatio-temporal models with space-time interaction and their applications to air pollution data

description: It is of utmost importance to have a clear understanding of the status of air pollution and to provide forecasts and insights about the air quality to the general public and researchers in environmental studies. Previous studies of spatio-temporal models showed that even a short-term exposure to high concentrations of atmospheric fine particulate matters can be hazardous to the health of ordinary people. In this study, we develop a spatio-temporal model with space-time interaction for air pollution data. The proposed model uses a parametric space-time interaction component along with the spatial and temporal components in the mean structure, and introduces a random-effects component specified in the form of zero-mean spatio-temporal processes. For application, we analyze the air pollution data (PM2.5) from 66 monitoring stations across Taiwan.
Semiclassical Scattering in Yang-Mills Theory

description: A classical solution to the Yang-Mills theory is given a new semiclassical interpretation. The boundary value problem on a complex time contour which arises from the semiclassical approximation to multiparticle scattering amplitudes is reviewed and applied to the case of Yang- Mills theory. The solution describes a classically for- bidden transition between states with a large average number of particles in the limit $g\rightarrow 0$. It dominates a transition probability with a semiclassical suppression factor equal to twice the action of the well- known BPST instanton. Hence, it is relevant to the pro- blem of high energy tunnelling. It describes transitions of unit topological charge for an appropriate time contour. Therefore, it may have a direct interpretation in terms of fermion number violating processes in electroweak theory. The solution describes a transition between an initial state with parametrically fewer particles than the final state. Thus, it may be relevant to the study of semiclassical initial state corrections in the limit of a small number of initial particles. The implications of these results for multiparticle production in electroweak theory are also discussed.

description: Two-dimensional thermoelectric materials with a figure of merit $ZT$, which is greater than 2.0 at room temperature, would be highly desirable in energy conversion since the efficiency is competitive to conventional energy conversion techniques. Here, we propose that the indium triphosphide (InP$_3$) monolayer offers an extraordinary $ZT$ of 2.2 at 300 K by using quantum calculations within the ballistic thermal transport region. A remarkably low and isotropic phononic thermal conductivity is founded, which is due to flat lattice vibration modes. This low thermal conductivity takes a major responsibility to the impressively high $ZT$. Moreover, a large $ZT$ that is greater than 1.5 can be maintained, even if a 1% mechanic extension is applied on the lattice. These results suggest that the InP$_3$ monolayer is a promising candidate for low dimensional thermoelectric applications.
