description: We extend the canonical formalism for the motion of $N$-particles in lineal gravity to include charges. Under suitable coordinate conditions and boundary conditions the determining equation of the Hamiltonian (a kind of transcendental equation) is derived from the matching conditions for the dilaton field at the particles' position. The canonical equations of motion are derived from this determining equation. For the equal mass case the canonical equations in terms of the proper time can be exactly solved in terms of hyperbolic and/or trigonometric functions. In electrodynamics with zero cosmological constant the trajectories for repulsive charges exhibit not only bounded motion but also a countably infinite series of unbounded motions for a fixed value of the total energy $H_{0}$, while for attractive charges the trajectories are simply periodic. When the cosmological constant $Λ$ is introduced, the motion for a given $Λ$ and $H_{0}$ is classified in terms of the charge-momentum diagram from which we can predict what type of the motion is realized for a given charge. Since in this theory the charge of each particle appears in the form $e_{1}e_{2}$ in the determining equation, the static balance condition in 1+1 dimensions turns out to be identical with the condition in Newtonian theory. We generalize this condition to non-zero momenta, obtaining the first exact solution to the static balance problem that does not obey the Majumdar-Papapetrou condition.

description:
Black older women living with HIV (BOWLH) in the United States are disproportionately affected by HIV infection and poor treatment engagement rates, often caused by multiple social determinants of health. In this descriptive qualitative study, we interviewed 17 BOWLH to investigate the facilitators and barriers to HIV treatment engagement. Data were analyzed using the socioecological framework. Findings demonstrate the positive influences of supportive social networks, perceived benefits, HIV-related knowledge, raising HIV awareness in communities, and impact of HIV state laws. The highlighted barriers were mainly low income, substance use, HIV-related stigma, influence of stereotypes and assumptions about older women living with HIV, and health insurance. Religion, managing comorbidities, attitude toward, HIV disclosure, and caregiving roles had both positive and negative influences on engagement. These findings illuminate factors of HIV treatment engagement that might be culturally founded; disseminating these factors to health care professionals is a critical intervention to support this population.

description: Several electric/magnetic charged solutions (dyons) to 5D Kaluza-Klein gravity on the principal bundle are reviewed. Here we examine the possibility that these solutions can act as quantum virtual wormholes in spacetime foam models. By applying a sufficently large, external electric and/or magnetic field it may be possible to ``inflate'' these solutions from a quantum to a classical state. This effect could lead to a possible experimental signal for higher dimensions in multidimensional gravity.

description: A framework was recently introduced to generalize black hole mechanics by replacing stationary event horizons with isolated horizons. That framework is significantly extended. The extension is non-trivial in that not only do the boundary conditions now allow the horizon to be distorted and rotating, but also the subsequent analysis is based on several new ingredients. Specifically, although the overall strategy is closely related to that in the previous work, the dynamical variables, the action principle and the Hamiltonian framework are all quite different. More importantly, in the non-rotating case, the first law is shown to arise as a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a consistent Hamiltonian evolution. Somewhat surprisingly, this consistency condition in turn leads to new predictions even for static black holes. To complement the previous work, the entire discussion is presented in terms of tetrads and associated (real) Lorentz connections.

description: In Ethiopia, over nine million farmers produce maize on about 14% of the total land area. It serves as food and feed. Various arthropod pests destroy maize in traditional storage. Larger grain borer (LGB), Prostephanus truncatus (Horn) is a devastating storage pest that constrain stored maize in Eastern Africa and beyond. This study was aimed at surveying whether the LGB has been infesting stored maize in southern Ethiopia or not. Community based cross sectional survey was conducted in four purposively selected kebeles in Baka Dawula Ari District in South Omo Zone of South Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Regional State. A total of three maize cobs were picked from each type of storage structure in three replications from every study Kebele. Then, the cobs were taken to the Laboratory of Entomology and Vertebrate Zoology of Arba Minch Plant Health Clinic and the pest species were identified by the use of binocular microscope. A total of 11 species of arthropod pests were identified from the stored maize. P. truncatus was found to be one of the most severely damaging of stored maize. This pest was recorded infesting maize grain in Ethiopia for the first time by this study. It is concluded that LGB has already entered into Ethiopia, it has already been established and it is devastating stored maize. Immediate integrated control of the LGB shall be implemented. A survey of countrywide geographical distribution of the LGB shall be held in order to design large-scale management practices of the pest.

description: We recently proposed the equivalent width (EW) of the narrow [OIII]5007Å emission line as an orientation indicator for active galactic nuclei. We tested this method on about $12,300$ optically selected broad line quasars from the SDSS 7th Data Release at redshift $z < 0.8$ and with full width at half-maximum values of broad emission lines (H$α$, H$β$, and MgII) larger than $2000$ km/s. We now examine their spectral energy distributions (SEDs) using broad band photometry from the near-infrared to the ultraviolet to look for variations in the overall shape as a function of the EW[OIII]. We find that quasars with low EW[OIII] values (close to face-on position) have flatter near-infrared SEDs with respect to sources with high EW[OIII] values (almost edge-on). Moreover, quasars with high EW[OIII] values show a factor of $\sim 2$ lower emission in the UV to quasars with low EW[OIII] values. Our findings indicate that the torus is clumpy and, on average, co-axial with the accretion disc and broad line region, in agreement with the most recent theoretical models for the obscuring torus.

description: Here we present a detailed analysis of the properties and evolution of different dwarf galaxies, candidate to host the coalescence of black hole binary systems (BHB) generating GW150914-like events. By adopting a novel theoretical framework coupling the binary population synthesis code \texttt{SeBa} with the Galaxy formation model \texttt{GAMESH}, we can investigate the detailed evolution of these objects in a well resolved cosmological volume of 4~cMpc, having a Milky Way-like (MW) galaxy forming at its center. We identify three classes of interesting candidate galaxies: MW progenitors, dwarf satellites and dwarf galaxies evolving in isolation. We find that: (i) despite differences in individual histories and specific environments the candidates reduce to only nine representative galaxies; (ii) among them, $\sim44\%$ merges into the MW halo progenitors by the redshift of the expected signal, while the remaining dwarfs are found as isolated or as satellites of the MW and their evolution is strongly shaped by both peculiar dynamical history and environmental feedback; (iii) a stringent condition for the environments where GW150914-like binaries can form comes from a combination of the accretion history of their DM halos and the radiative feedback in the high redshift universe; (iv) by comparing with the observed catalogues from DGS and ALLSMOG surveys we find two observed dwarfs respecting the properties predicted by our model. We finally note how the present analysis opens the possibility to build future strategies for host galaxy identification.

description: Aim: Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (DNACPR) codes record the decision to withhold CPR in cases of circulatory arrest. These decisions involve various clinical, ethical and legal complexities promoting increased focus on the decision-making process. This research sought to capture healthcare workers perspective on DNACPR practices and policies in Ireland. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive survey utilising a questionnaire developed and piloted for this study to gather responses on open and closed questions. Data were analysed using SPSS and content analysis. Study is reported in line with the Consensus-Based Checklist for Reporting of Survey Studies reporting guidelines. Results: 784 participants including doctors, nurses, paramedics and other healthcare workers completed the questionnaire. 80.5 % (n = 625) of participants rated their knowledge of DNACPR decision-making as fair or better. 77.5 % (n = 601) of participants understood DNACPR to mean ‘no chest compressions, defibrillation or artificial ventilation in the event of cardiopulmonary arrest’. A majority of participants (60.2 % n = 467) had experienced a degree of conflict related to a DNACPR decision. 245 (31.25%) participants provided comments which addressed issues such as communication, education, pressure surrounding DNACPR decisions, the role of national guidelines/documentation, and legal concerns. Conclusion: The findings reveal gaps in healthcare workers’ understanding and familiarity with DNACPR policies, highlighting the need for improved patient involvement and proactive discussions. Effective communication and comprehensive training are crucial, as communication remains a significant barrier. While national policies can provide clarity, increasing awareness and understanding of these policies among healthcare workers is essential

description: We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent decays into quarks, leptons and LSP in models with effective supersymmetry where third generation of squarks is relatively light while the first two generations of squarks are heavy. We consider the general case of nonuniversal gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM background in (n \geq 2)jets + (m \geq 0)leptons + E^{miss}_T events depends rather strongly on the relation between LSP, second neutralino, gluino and squark masses and it decreases with the increase of LSP mass. We find that for relatively heavy gluino it is very difficult to detect SUSY signal even for light 3^{rd} generation squarks (m_{\tilde q_3}\le 1 TeV) if the LSP mass is closed to the 3^{rd} generation squark mass.

object detection

description: Machine vision systems are emerging as increasingly popular solutions in automated quality and process control applications. By allowing non-contact, and therefore non-destructive inspection, techniques based on machine vision are especially suitable when correct handling of the object under inspection is critical. This is the quality control problem that we address in this work: it consists of the detection of a series of control elements that are placed in boxes and bags that contain the surgical instruments with which surgeons and nurses must be supplied before starting a surgical procedure. The presence of these elements shows that the instruments have been correctly subjected to the required sanitation processes. To address this problem, in this work we detect rectangular areas of the image that contain the objects of interest (traceability label, seal, various paper-tape filters that change with temperature, etc.). Additionally, we consider the problem of detecting oriented rectangular areas (not parallel to the image axes) to improve localization. The detector makes use of deep convolutional neural networks that determine by regression the parameters of the rectangular areas, adopting a two-stage strategy: the first stage locates the object through a rectangular box (bounding box) parallel to the image axes, the second stage estimates the parameters of the maximal oriented box contained in the first and containing the object. After training the system with a collection of representative images, where the objects to be detected appear in various orientations and scales, the ability of the system to detect the control elements in a collection of test images has been verified. The experimentation has started with a previous clustering process to determine a set of scales and appropriate aspect ratios as starting points for the regressions. Next, various box parameterizations have been considered to determine which one allowed for the highest correct detection rate. The final results point out, for the non-oriented boxes, to an average precision (P) greater than 98% for an average sensitivity (R) greater than 93%, using 4 clusters; for the oriented boxes case, P = 66% and R = 73%, using a 2-parameter model to orient the boxes.

Hint Orchestration Using ACL2's Simplifier

description: This paper describes a strategy for providing hints during an ACL2 proof, implemented in a utility called use-termhint. An extra literal is added to the goal clause and simplified along with the rest of the goal until it is stable under simplification, after which the simplified literal is examined and a hint extracted from it. This simple technique supports some commonly desirable yet elusive features. It supports providing different hints to different cases of a case split, as well as binding variables so as to avoid repeating multiply referenced subterms. Since terms used in these hints are simplified in the same way as the rest of the goal, this strategy is also more robust against changes in the rewriting normal form than hints in which terms from the goal are written out explicitly.

description: The escalating issue of plastic waste generation has prompted the search for an effective solution to address these challenges. In this study, we present a novel plasma‐enabled strategy for the rapid breakdown of various types of plastic wastes, including mixtures, into high‐value carbon nanomaterials and hydrogen. The H₂ yield and selectivity achieved through the implemented catalyst‐free plasma‐enabled strategy are 14.2 and 5.9 times higher, respectively, compared to those obtained with conventional thermal pyrolysis under similar conditions. It is noteworthy that this catalyst‐free plasma alone approach yields a significantly higher energy yield of H₂ (gH₂/kWh) compared to other pyrolysis processes. By coupling plasma pyrolysis with thermal catalytic process, employing of 1 wt . % M/CeO₂ (M=Fe, Co, and Ni) atomically dispersed catalysts can further enhance hydrogen production. Specifically, the 1 wt . % Co/CeO₂ catalyst demonstrated excellent catalytic performance throughout the 10 cycles of plastic waste decomposition, achieving the highest H₂ yield of 46.7 mmol/gplastic (equivalent to 64.4 % of theoretical H₂ production) and nearly 100 % hydrogen atom recovery efficiency at the 7th cycle. Notably, the H₂ yield achieved over the atomically dispersed Fe on CeO₂ surface (1 wt . % Fe/CeO₂) in the integrated plasma‐thermal catalytic process is comparable to that obtained with Fe particles on CeO₂ surface (10 wt . % Fe/CeO₂). This outcome, demonstrated with single‐atom catalysts, offers a promising avenue for cost‐effective and efficient chemical plastic recycling. Through a combination of experimental and computational efforts, we have provided an in‐depth understanding of the catalytic mechanisms of the investigated single atom catalysts in the developed plasma‐enabled process. This innovative and straightforward approach provides a promising and expedient strategy for continuously converting diverse plastic waste streams, including mixed and contaminated sources, into high‐value products conducive to a circular plastic economy.

description: Abstract

Correlation analysis at the start considers the coexistence of at least bivariate data sets without attaching notion that one is dependent nor independent. The tool is used to determine the presence of linear association between or among interrelated variables. The linear association is measured in terms of correlation coefficient. The significance of the correlation coefficient is directly associated with the sample size. For data coming from continuous distributions, the sign of the correlation coefficient is vital. The methodology allows to find proxy variables from its highly correlated variables. This is the essence of multicollinearity analysis. The nonlinear or nonmonotonic relationship is extrinsic to such analysis. The regression analysis on the other hand assumes apriori information that the existence of a dependent variable is attributed with a distinct independent variable. A linear model is estimated to forecast future value of the dependent variable given corresponding values of the independent variable. Though correlation and regression analysis may have the same decision of rejecting their respective null hypotheses, nevertheless, they are two different things. The correlation speaks to mean that there exists linear association between two variables. While the regression analysis at one hand establishes a significant model, and second, provides an inference that speak to mean that the dependent variable changes by some unit per unit change in the independent variable through its regression coefficients. However, the use of correlation analysis aids in estimating a robust regression model.

description: An essential part of the paradigm describing active galactic nuclei is the alignment between the radio jet and the associated rotation axis of the sub-pc sized accretion disks. Because of the small linear and angular scales involved, this alignment has not yet been checked in a sufficient number of Low Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (LLAGNs). The project intends to examine the validity of this paradigm by measuring the radio continuum on the same physical scale as the accretion disks, to investigate any possible connection between these disks and the radio continuum. We observed a sample of 18 LLAGNs in the 4.8 GHz (6 cm) radio continuum using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) with 3.3 to 6.5 milliarcseconds resolution. The sources were selected to show both an edge-on accretion disk revealed by 22 GHz H$_{2}$O megamaser emission and signatures of a radio jet. Furthermore, the sources were previously detected in 33GHz radio continuum observations made with the Very Large Array. Five out of 18 galaxies observed were detected at 8 sigma or higher levels (Mrk0001, Mrk1210, Mrk1419, NGC2273 and UGC3193). While all these sources are known to have maser disks, four of these five sources exhibit a maser disk with known orientation. For all four sources, the radio continuum is misaligned relative to the rotation axis of the maser disk, but with a 99.1% confidence level, the orientations are not random and are confined to a cone within 32 degree of the maser disk's normal. Among the four sources the misalignment of the radio continuum with respect to the normal vector to the maser disk is smaller when the inner radius of the maser disk is larger. Furthermore, a correlation is observed between the 5 GHz VLBA radio continuum and the [OIII] luminosity and also with the H$_{2}$O maser disk's inner radius.

description: Navigation for inspection refers to both the hardware and software required to make a robotic platform undertake the different tasks involved in an inspection mission. This typically requires from the robot a number of capabilities at the locomotion, sensory and ”intelligence” levels which make it possible collecting inspection data of relevance, in accordance to the inspection procedures of application, while adequatelly covering the Area of Interest (AOI). This chapter reviews main findings regarding the aforementioned topics from the perspective of an inspection mission.

description: We discuss the force-velocity relations obtained in a two-state crossbridge model for molecular motors. They can be calculated analytically in two limiting cases: for a large number and for one pair of motors. The effect of the strain-dependent detachment rate on the motor characteristics is studied. It can lead to linear, myosin-like, kinesin-like and anomalous curves. In particular, we specify the conditions under which oscillatory behavior may be found.

description: In this work, we apply homodyne detection to investigate the frequency-resolved photon statistics of a cw light field emitted by a driven-dissipative semiconductor system in real time. We demonstrate that studying the frequency dependence of the photon number noise allows us to distinguish intrinsic noise properties of the emitter from external noise sources such as mechanical noise while maintaining a sub-picosecond temporal resolution. We further show that performing postselection on the recorded data opens up the possibility to study rare events in the dynamics of the emitter. By doing so, we demonstrate that in rare instances, additional external noise may actually result in reduced photon number noise in the emission.

Surfactant-loaded capsules as Marangoni microswimmers at the air–water interface: symmetry breaking and spontaneous propulsion by surfactant diffusion and advection

description: We present a realization of a fast interfacial Marangoni microswimmer by a half-spherical alginate capsule at the air–water interface, which diffusively releases water-soluble spreading molecules (weak surfactants such as polyethylene glycol (PEG)), which act as “fuel” by modulating the air–water interfacial tension. For a number of different fuels, we can observe symmetry breaking and spontaneous propulsion although the alginate particle and emission are isotropic. The propulsion mechanism is similar to soap or camphor boats, which are, however, typically asymmetric in shape or emission to select a swimming direction. We develop a theory of Marangoni boat propulsion starting from low Reynolds numbers by analyzing the coupled problems of surfactant diffusion and advection and fluid flow, which includes surfactant-induced fluid Marangoni flow, and surfactant adsorption at the air–water interface; we also include a possible evaporation of surfactant. The swimming velocity is determined by the balance of drag and Marangoni forces. We show that spontaneous symmetry breaking resulting in propulsion is possible above a critical dimensionless surfactant emission rate (Peclet number). We derive the relation between Peclet number and swimming speed and generalize to higher Reynolds numbers utilizing the concept of the Nusselt number. The theory explains the observed swimming speeds for PEG–alginate capsules, and we unravel the differences to other Marangoni boat systems based on camphor, which are mainly caused by surfactant evaporation from the liquid–air interface. The capsule Marangoni microswimmers also exhibit surfactant-mediated repulsive interactions with walls, which can be qualitatively explained by surfactant accumulation at the wall.

On the nature of the force acting on a charged classical particle deviated from its geodesic path in a gravitational field
Creators: name: Petkov, Vesselin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In general relativity the gravitational field is a manifestation of spacetime curvature and unlike the electromagnetic field is not a force field. A particle falling in a gravitational field is represented by a geodesic worldline which means that no force is acting on it. If the particle is at rest in a gravitational field, however, its worldline is no longer geodesic and it is subjected to a force. The nature of that force is an open question in general relativity. The aim of this paper is to outline an approach toward resolving it in the case of classical charged particles which was initiated by Fermi in 1921.

Higher integrability for variational integrals with non-standard growth

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: 510

description: We consider autonomous integral functionals of the form F[u]:=∫Ωf(Du)dx where u:Ω→RN,N≥1, where the convex integrand f satisfies controlled (p, q)-growth conditions. We establish higher gradient integrability and partial regularity for minimizers of F assuming qp<1+2n−1, n≥3. This improves earlier results valid under the more restrictive assumption qp<1+2n.

description: We consider cosmological models in which a homogeneous isotropic universe is embedded as a 3+1 dimensional surface into a 4+1 dimensional manifold. The size of the extra dimension depends on time. It is small compared to the size of the universe only if the energy of gravitational self-interaction of the universe through the compact extra dimension dominates over all other kinds of energy. The self-interaction energy gives the main contribution into the Friedmann equation, which governs the dynamics of the scale factor of the universe.

description: The recent result from the E821 experiment at BNL on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon shows a distinct discrepancy with the Standard Model predictions. We calculate the additional correction that the anomalous magnetic moment receives in a model with scalar leptoquarks. We find that such models can account for the deviation from the SM value even for small leptoquark couplings.

description: Sample return from the near-Earth asteroid known as 25143 Itokawa was conducted as part of the Hayabusa mission, with a large number of scientific findings being derived from the returned samples. Following the Hayabusa mission, Hayabusa2 was planned, targeting sample return from a primitive asteroid. The primary target body of Hayabusa2 was asteroid 162173 Ryugu; however, it was also necessary to gather physical information for backup target selection. Therefore, we examined five asteroids spectroscopically, 43 asteroids spectrophotometrically, and 41 asteroids through periodic analysis. Hence, the physical properties of 74 near-Earth asteroids were obtained, which helped the Hayabusa2 backup target search and, also, furthered understanding of the physical properties of individual asteroids and their origins.
