Controlling Amplitude of Guitar String Vibrations
Creators: name: Riedel, Stefan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: This thesis deals with the physics and design of electromagnetic string drivers for electric guitars. Those hand-held or built-in devices enable guitarists to initiate and sustain vibrations without plucking the string. Of further musical importantance is that these devices enable to alter the dynamics of a single musical note, which is not possible for unaugmented plucked string instruments.

description: Skeletal-related events (SREs) are major bone complications that frequently occur in patients with solid tumors (ST) and bone metastases, and in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). SREs include pathological fracture, spinal cord compression, radiation to bone, and surgery to bone. Limited data are available regarding the burden of SREs in Latin America. We built an economic model to quantify the current and future economic burden of SREs among adults in four Latin American countries: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico. A comprehensive literature review with a systematic search strategy was conducted to parameterize the economic burden of illness (BOI) model. Economic analyses were conducted using a prevalence-based model. Aggregate SRE costs obtained from country-specific sources were used. We also included patient productivity losses. Costs were expressed in 2020 USD for the total annual burden, annual burden per 1,000 at risk, and projected five-year burden. The estimated total number of SREs was 251,503 in 2020, amounting to a total annual cost of USD 1.4 billion. The total projected five-year cost was USD 6.9 billion. Annual costs were highest in Brazil (USD 779.1 million), followed by Mexico (USD 281.8 million), Argentina (USD 174.6 million), and Colombia (USD 120.1 million). The average financial burden per 1,000 at risk was greatest in Brazil (USD 3.6 million), followed by Mexico (USD 3.4 million), Colombia (USD 2.9 million), and Argentina (USD 2.7 million). Despite recommendations by medical societies for the use of bone-targeted agents in patients with solid tumors and bone metastasis or with multiple myeloma and bone lesions, a large proportion of patients at risk of experiencing SREs are not treated. Early detection of bone metastases and SREs and the use of the most effective preventative treatments are needed to decrease the clinical and economic burden of SREs in Latin America.

description: Waste heat recovery in the energy intensive industry is one of the most important measures for the mitigation of climate change. The utilization of just a fraction of the theoretically available waste heat potential would lead to a significant reduction of the primary energy consumption and hence a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The present study examines the integration of a packed bed thermal energy storage for waste heat recovery in the iron and steel industry. Along with the highly fluctuating availability of excess heat the main difficulty of waste heat recovery in industrial processes is the high amount of powder that is transported by the hot exhaust gases. Therefore, investigations focus on the pressure drop and powder hold-up in a packed bed thermal energy storage that is operated with a gas-powder two phase exhaust gas as heat transfer fluid with the ultimate goal to assess its suitability and robustness under such challenging operational conditions. The results indicate, that 98 % of the powder that is introduced into the system with the heat transfer fluid during charging accumulates in the packed bed. Remarkably, most of the powder hold-up in the packed bed is concentrated near the surface at which the heat transfer fluid enters the packed bed. When reversing the flow direction of the heat transfer fluid to discharge the storage with a clean single phase gas, this gas is not contaminated with the powder that has been accumulated in previous charging periods. Further, the radial distribution of the powder hold-up in the packed bed is observed to be even which indicates that there is no risk of random flow channel formation that could affect the thermal performance (storage capacity, thermal power rate) of the system. The results reinforce the great potential of packed bed thermal energy storage systems for waste heat recovery in the energy intensive industry.

description: Just before Christmas I spent an hour with RTE recording a radio programme reflecting on some of the year’s most significant building and development issues. We discussed building defects, houses being flooded, ghost estates, and so on. After each clip played I gave my analysis of the situation, and it wasn’t long before I found myself repeating the same line, which was effectively: “I bet you there’s a planning report somewhere that says, ‘We don’t recommend you do this’.” But it was done anyway because the politicians—local and national—for their own reasons said “do it”, when the professionals said “don’t”. As a result we have housing built on floodplains, ghost estates littering the country and abandoned hotels in random locations.

description: The phase space given by the cotangent bundle of a Lie group appears in the context of several models for physical systems. A representation for the quantum system in terms of non-commutative functions on the (dual) Lie algebra, and a generalized notion of (non-commutative) Fourier transform, different from standard harmonic analysis, has been recently developed, and found several applications, especially in the quantum gravity literature. We show that this algebra representation can be defined on the sole basis of a quantization map of the classical Poisson algebra, and identify the conditions for its existence. In particular, the corresponding non-commutative star-product carried by this representation is obtained directly from the quantization map via deformation quantization. We then clarify under which conditions a unitary intertwiner between such algebra representation and the usual group representation can be constructed giving rise to the non-commutative plane waves and consequently, the non-commutative Fourier transform. The compact groups U(1) and SU(2) are considered for different choices of quantization maps, such as the symmetric and the Duflo map, and we exhibit the corresponding star-products, algebra representations and non-commutative plane waves.

Dreaming and REM-sleep: History of a scientific denial whose disappearance entailed a reconciliation of the neuroscience and the cognitive psychological approaches to dreaming
Creators: name: Montangero, Jacques
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2018
Subjects: Dreaming (neurophysiology; cognitive approach; history of ideas), REM sleep, non-REM sleep, Dream recall; Definition of dreaming; Psychophysiological reductionism.

description: Since around 2010, important changes occurred in research on the neural bases of dreaming. From the 1960s until the end of the century, most sleep physiologists and some dream researchers continued to adhere to the view that rapid eye movement (REM) sleep was the functional state of the brain concomitant to dreaming, in spite of numerous published findings falsifying that view. At the beginning of the 21st century only, the idea that the neural basis of dreaming is not REM sleep was accepted by a new generation of sleep physiologists. The present article firstly presents how the REM sleep hypothesis of dreaming originated in the 1950s and became the received view on the neurophysiological bases of dreaming. Secondly, five categories of counter-evidence published during the following decades are summarized. The next section recalls the long-lasting denial of the body of counter-evidence. The Discussion section starts with two cognitive topics: dream recall and the definition of dreaming. We then discuss the relationships between the neuroscience and the cognitive-psychological approaches to dreaming. The main categories of current experiments on the neural bases of dreaming are then presented. They show that giving up the received view permitted neuroscience research on dreaming to enter a new era. The last part of the article proposes an explanation of the scientific denial by the psycho-physiological reductionism of many sleep specialists of the time. The main drawbacks of a reductionism stance are listed and the article ends on a lesson to draw from this historical episode.

description: A single Josephson junction in the phase-slip regime exhibits Bloch oscillations in the voltage when biased with a DC current $I_\text{DC}$. The frequency of the oscillation is given by $πI_\text{DC}/e$, with $e$ the elementary charge, linking the current to the frequency via fundamental constants of nature. If an additional AC drive is applied, the Bloch oscillations may synchronize with the external drive. This leads to the emergence of dual Shapiro steps at fixed current in the $IV$ characteristics of the device. For applications as a current standard, frequencies of the order of 10\,GHz are required. These are challenging to implement experimentally without detrimental effects due to stray capacitances. Here, we propose to employ an additional Josephson junction with a DC voltage bias as an on chip AC source due to the AC Josephson effect. We study the back action of the Bloch oscillations on the Josephson oscillations and identify a parameter regime in which it is minimized. Furthermore, we find that the back action can even be utilized to further enhance the driving signal which can lead to increased widths of the resulting dual Shapiro steps. Finally, we show dual Shapiro steps for a set of realistic experimental parameters at finite temperatures.

We used a sample of 120 RGs representative of the NVSS 1.4 GHz survey, when flux limited at 0.4 Jy. Of those, 66 galaxies belonged to the ALMA Radio-source Catalogue (ARC) of calibrators and had spectral window tunings around CO (1-0), (2-1), (3-2), or (4-3). We reduced their ALMA data, determined their H2 mass contents, and combined the results with similar results for the remaining 54 galaxies from the literature. We found that, while at all epochs the majority of RGs have undetectable reservoirs, there is a rapid increase in the H2 mass content of the CO-detected RGs with z. At 1

description: We study the interplay between basic Dirac operator and transverse Killing and twistor spinors. In order to obtain results for general Riemannian foliations with bundle-like metric we consider transverse Killing spinors that appear as natural extension of the harmonic spinors associated with the basic Dirac operator. In the case of foliations with basic-harmonic mean curvature it turns out that these Killing spinors and twistor spinors coincide with the standard definition. We obtain the corresponding version of classical results on closed Riemannian manifold with spin structure, extending some previous results.

description: The potential of the muon colliders open up new possibilities for the exploration of new physics beyond the Standard Model. It is worthwhile to investigate whether muon colliders are suitable for studying gluonic quartic gauge couplings~(gQGCs), which can be contributed by dimension-8 operators in the framework of the Standard Model effective field theory, and are intensively studied recently. In this paper, we study the sensitivity of the process $μ^+μ^-\to j j ν\barν$ to gQGCs. Our result indicate that the muon colliders with c.m. energies larger than $4\;{\rm TeV}$ can be more sensitive to gQGCs than the Large Hadron Collider.

description: Background Challenges in recruiting appropriately trained obstetricians and gynaecologists have been identified across the world. Given well documented staff shortages within obstetrics and gynaecology in Ireland, it is increasingly important to understand the factors which influence medical students to choose or reject a career in the speciality. The aim of this study was to ascertain the perceptions of final year graduate entry medical students of obstetrics and gynaecology, including the factors which may influence a student’s decision to pursue in a career in the speciality. Methods Paper-based surveys of graduate entry medical students (n=146) were conducted at the beginning and end of a six week rotation in obstetrics and gynaecology in Ireland. Responses to the surveys pre- and post-rotation were matched and changes in career choices, merits and demerits over time were analysed. All analysis was conducted using SPSS for Windows version 25. Results The responses of 72 students to both questionnaires could be matched (response rate of 49.3%). No male students expressed an interest in obstetrics, gynaecology or both as a first choice of career in the pre rotation survey. Obstetrics as a first choice of career increased from 6.9% pre rotation to 19.4% post rotation (p=0.04) and this increase was seen in male and female students. Gynaecology as a first choice increased slightly from 1.4 to 4.2% (p=0.50) and the dual speciality increased from 6.9 to 13.9% (p=0.23). Students identified many merits of obstetrics pre-rotation with more than 60% identifying it as exciting, interesting fulfilling and challenging. However, incompatibility with family life was cited as a demerit by 72% of respondents and 68.1% identified fear of litigation as a demerit. Participants were less positive overall about the merits of a career in gynaecology with less than 40% viewing it as exciting, fulfilling, and varied. Conclusions While respondents were positive about the merits of a career in obstetrics and gynecology, concerns remain about work-life balance, career opportunities, and the high-risk nature of the specialty. These concerns should be addressed by the profession and policy makers if they wish to attract sufficient numbers to address anticipated need in the coming years. Gender differences in speciality choice were also evident. If males are to be recruited into obstetrics and gynaecology, consideration should be given to the positive impact of internship.

description: In this paper we study the application of four-mode squeezed states in the cosmological context, studying two weakly coupled scalar fields in the planar patch of the de Sitter space. We construct the four-mode squeezed state formalism and connect this concept with the Hamiltonian of the two coupled inverted harmonic oscillators having a time-dependent effective frequency in the planar patch of the de Sitter space. Further, the corresponding evolution operator for the quantum Euclidean vacuum state has been constructed, which captures its dynamics. Using the Heisenberg picture coupled differential equations describing the time evolution for all squeezing parameters (amplitude, phase and angle) have been obtained, for the weakly coupled two scalar field model. With the help of these evolutions for the coupled system, we simulate the dynamics of the squeezing parameters in terms of conformal time. From our analysis, we observe interesting dynamics, which helps us to explore various underlying physical implications of the weakly coupled two scalar field system in the planar patch of the de Sitter cosmological background.

description: We use maximum entropy arguments to derive the phase space distribution of a virialized dark matter halo. Our distribution function gives an improved representation of the end product of violent relaxation. This is achieved by incorporating physically motivated dynamical constraints (specifically on orbital actions) which prevent arbitrary redistribution of energy. We compare the predictions with three high-resolution dark matter simulations of widely varying mass. The numerical distribution function is accurately predicted by our argument, producing an excellent match for the vast majority of particles. The remaining particles constitute the central cusp of the halo (<4% of the dark matter). They can be accounted for within the presented framework once the short dynamical timescales of the centre are taken into account.

description: Understanding the forces that shape biodiversity is crucial for the rational management of natural resources and aligning with the objectives set by the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, which aims to restore biodiversity in Europe. Researchers face the challenging task of predicting global biodiversity dynamics and comprehending how species interact with their environment and each other. These dynamics are complex, requiring innovative approaches that combine data, models, and interaction processes to provide accurate predictions and sustainable solutions for managing Earth's biodiversity and ecosystems. To address this challenge, the primary objective of BioDT is to develop a prototype of the Biodiversity Digital Twin, a cutting-edge tool that accurately models and quantifies species interactions with their environment. By harnessing existing technologies and leveraging data from relevant research infrastructures in innovative ways, BioDT aims to provide advanced modeling, simulation, and prediction capabilities. BioDT held this webinar on 8 June 2023 to provide an in-depth technical overview of the development process for the biodiversity digital twin prototype, showcasing: the key components utilised in constructing the digital twin prototype; the seamless integration of Research Infrastructure data into the digital twin prototype; the interaction between the project and High-Performance Computing, including the utilisation of the LUMI Supercomputer. In this presentation, you can discover more about how HPC and LUMI Supercomputer support the development of the biodiversity digital twin prototype.

description: Laws of motion given in terms of differential equations can not always be derived from an action principle, at least not without introducing auxiliary variables. By allowing auxiliary variables, e.g. in the form of Lagrange multipliers, an action is immediately obtained. Here, we consider some ways how this can be done, drawing examples from the literature, and apply this to Bohmian mechanics. We also discuss the possible metaphysical status of these auxiliary variables. A particularly interesting approach brings the theory in the form of a gauge theory, with the auxiliary variables as gauge degrees of freedom.

description: The interpretability of deep neural networks has become a subject of great interest within the medical and healthcare domain. This attention stems from concerns regarding transparency, legal and ethical considerations, and the medical significance of predictions generated by these deep neural networks in clinical decision support systems. To address this matter, our study delves into the application of four well-established interpretability methods: Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations (LIME), Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM), and Layer-wise Relevance Propagation (LRP). Leveraging the approach of transfer learning with a multi-label-multi-class chest radiography dataset, we aim to interpret predictions pertaining to specific pathology classes. Our analysis encompasses both single-label and multi-label predictions, providing a comprehensive and unbiased assessment through quantitative and qualitative investigations, which are compared against human expert annotation. Notably, Grad-CAM demonstrates the most favorable performance in quantitative evaluation, while the LIME heatmap score segmentation visualization exhibits the highest level of medical significance. Our research underscores both the outcomes and the challenges faced in the holistic approach adopted for assessing these interpretability methods and suggests that a multimodal-based approach, incorporating diverse sources of information beyond chest radiography images, could offer additional insights for enhancing interpretability in the medical domain.

description: There has been a lot of discussion this year about concerns that landlords are fleeing the rental market in the face of rent freezes and difficulties in making a profit — but are they? First, it is important to note that it is not the number of landlords in a market that is relevant, it’s the number of tenancies, which is a measure of the size of the sector. The sector has actually expanded in the past 12 months from about 319,000 tenancies at the end of last year to 324,000 in mid-2016. The number of landlords also increased in the 20 months to June 2016, to 172,159.

description: We report on the theoretical and experimental investigation of valley-selective optical Stark and Bloch-Siegert shifts of exciton resonances in monolayers WSe$_2$ and MoS$_2$ induced by strong circularly polarized nonresonant optical fields. We predict and observe transient shifts of both 1sA and 1sB exciton transitions in the linear interaction regime. The theoretical description is based on semiconductor Bloch equations. The solutions of the equations are obtained with a modified perturbation technique, which takes into account many-body Coulomb interaction effects. These solutions allow to explain the polarization dependence of the shifts and calculate their values analytically. We found experimentally the limits of the applicability of the theoretical description by observing the transient exciton spectra change due to many-body effects at high field amplitudes of the driving wave.

Moreover, PTI technology also emulates a synthetic spin-1/2 degree of freedom (DOF) in the reflectionless topological modes. The spin-1/2 DOF is carried by Quantum Valley Hall (QVH) / Quantum Spin Hall (QSH) interface modes created from the bianisotropic meta waveguide (BMW) platform, and realized both in simulation and experiment. We employ the PTI setting to build an ensemble of wave chaotic 1D metric graphs that display statistical properties consistent with Gaussian Symplectic Ensemble (GSE) statistics. The two critical ingredients required to create a physical system in the GSE universality class, the half-integer-spin DOF and preserved time-reversal invariance, are clearly realized in the QVH/QSH interface modes. We identify the anti-unitary T-operator for the PTI Hamiltonian underlying our experimental realization. An ensemble of PTI-edgemode metric graphs are proposed and experimentally demonstrated. We then demonstrate the Kramers degeneracy of eigenmodes of the PTI-graph systems with both numerical and experimental studies. We further conduct spectral statistical studies of the edgemode graphs and find good agreement with the GSE theoretical predictions. The PTI chaotic graph structures present an innovative and easily extendable platform for continued future investigation of GSE systems.

description: We consider the ratio of the correlation function of an hexagon light-like Wilson loop with one local operator over the expectation value of the Wilson loop within the strong-coupling regime of the AdS/CFT correspondence. We choose the hexagon Wilson loop within a class of minimal solutions obtained by cutting and gluing light-like quadrangle loops. These surfaces do not have an interpretation in terms of dual scattering amplitudes but they still exhibit general features of the mixed correlation function. In the case of a regular null hexagon conformal symmetry constrains the space-time dependence of the correlator up to a function of three conformal cross-ratios. We obtain the leading-order contribution to the correlation function in the semiclassical approximation of large string tension, and express the result in terms of three conformal ratios in the case where the local operator is taken to be the dilaton. We include the analysis of an irregular Wilson loop obtained after a boost of the regular hexagon.

description: The physical origin of gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission (photosphere or synchrotron) is still subject to debate after five decades. Here, firstly we find that many observed characteristics of 15 long GRBs, which have the highest prompt emission efficiency $ε_γ$ ($ε_{γ}\gtrsim 80\%$), strongly support the photosphere (thermal) emission origin: (1) the relation between $E_{\text{p}}$ and $E_{\text{iso}}$ is almost $E_{\text{p}}\propto (E_{\text{iso}})^{1/4}$ , and the dispersion is quite small; (2) the simple power-law shape of the X-ray afterglow light curves and the significant reverse shock signals in the optical afterglow light curves; (3) best-fitted by the cutoff power-law model for the time-integrated spectrum; (4) the consistent efficiency from observation (with $E_{\text{iso}}/E_{k}$) and the prediction of photosphere emission model (with $η/Γ$). Then, we further investigate the characteristics of the long GRBs for two distinguished samples ($ε_{γ}\gtrsim 50\%$ and $ε_{γ}\lesssim 50\%$). It is found that the different distributions for $E_{\text{p}}$ and $E_{\text{iso}}$, and the similar observed efficiency (from the X-ray afterglow) and theoretically predicted efficiency (from the prompt emission or the optical afterglow) well follow the prediction of photosphere emission model. Also, based on the same efficiency, we derive an excellent correlation of $Γ\propto E_{\text{iso}}^{1/8}E_{\text{p}}^{1/2}/(T_{90})^{1/4}$ to estimate $Γ$. Finally, the different distributions for $E_{\text{p}}$ and $E_{\text{iso}}$, and the consistent efficiency exist for the short GRBs. Besides, we give a natural explanation of the extended emission ($ε_{γ}\lesssim 50\%$) and the main pulse ($ε_{γ}\gtrsim 50\%$).

description: We report the results of a search for inelastic scattering of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) off $^{127}$I nuclei using NaI(Tl) crystals with a data exposure of 97.7 kg$\cdot$years from the COSINE-100 experiment. The signature of inelastic WIMP-$^{127}$I scattering is a nuclear recoil accompanied by a 57.6 keV $γ$-ray from the prompt deexcitation, producing a more energetic signal compared to the typical WIMP nuclear recoil signal. We found no evidence for this inelastic scattering signature and set a 90 $\%$ confidence level upper limit on the WIMP-proton spin-dependent, inelastic scattering cross section of $1.2 \times 10^{-37} {\rm cm^{2}}$ at the WIMP mass 500 ${\rm GeV/c^{2}}$.

description: The charge character of Andreev bound states (ABSs) in a three-terminal semiconductor-superconductor hybrid nanowire was measured using local and nonlocal tunneling spectroscopy. The device is fabricated using an epitaxial InAs/Al two-dimensional heterostructure with several gate-defined side probes. ABSs are found to oscillate around zero as a function of gate voltage, with modifications of their charge consistent with theoretical expectations for the total Bardeen-Cooper- Schrieffer (BCS) charge of ABSs.

description: The upper critical field Hc2(T) of the multiband superconductor KFe2As2 has been studied via low-temperature thermal expansion and magnetostriction measurements. We present compelling evidence for Pauli-limiting effects dominating Hc2(T) for H || a, as revealed by a crossover from second- to first-order phase transitions to the superconducting state in the magnetostriction measurements down to 50 mK. Corresponding features were absent for H || c. To our knowledge, this crossover constitutes the first confirmation of Pauli limiting of the Hc2(T) of a multiband superconductor. The results are supported by modeling Pauli limits for single-band and multiband cases.

description: The spacetime of Ho and Weiler [Phys. Rev. D {\bf 87}, 045004 (2013)] supposedly admitting closed timelike curves (CTCs) is flat Minkowski spacetime with a compactified coordinate and can only contain CTCs if the compact direction is chosen to be timelike. This case of a "periodic time" is probably the simplest example of a causality-violating spacetime; it trivially satisfies all energy conditions usually assumed in general relativity, and its geodesics are just straight lines. Its relevance for phenomenology of the LHC, on the other hand, depends on consistency with observational constraints on gravity, as is mentioned in general but not discussed in any detail by Ho and Weiler. We verify a basic consistency check for stationary sources.

A solution to continuous RFI in narrowband radio SETI with FAST: The MultiBeam Point-source Scanning strategy

description: Narrowband radio search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) in the 21st century suffers severely from radio frequency interference (RFI), resulting in a high number of false positives, and it could be the major reason why we have not yet received any messages from space. We thereby propose a novel observation strategy, called MultiBeam Point-source Scanning (MBPS), to revolutionize the way RFI is identified in narrowband radio SETI and provide a prominent solution to the current situation. The MBPS strategy is a simple yet powerful method that sequentially scans over the target star with different beams of a telescope, hence creating real-time references in the time domain for cross-verification, thus potentially identifying all long-persistent RFI with a level of certainty never achieved in any previous attempts. By applying the MBPS strategy during the observation of TRAPPIST-1 with the FAST telescope, we successfully identified all 16,645 received signals as RFI using the solid criteria introduced by the MBPS strategy. Therefore we present the MBPS strategy as a promising tool that should bring us much closer to the first discovery of a genuine galactic greeting.

description: The purpose of this report is to present the technical implementation of the ALTERNATIVE Cloud Data Platform as a complete solution that combines cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes orchestration and seamless integration with external APIs. The platform provides data hosting and exchange features for internal and external users, hosts the in-silico models and provides APIs for external users and systems to access it. The same platform will be further extended to host different datasets and in-silico approaches to evaluate potential cardiotoxicity of chemicals and mixture in later deliverables.

The platform has several goals including facilitating data exchange between consortium partners during the duration of the project, hosting APIs for external users and making the results available to external stakeholders after the project has been completed. The final aim of the ALTERNATIVE cloud platform is to integrate all data and results from various work packages into a computational system. This system can be used directly by end-users for the evaluation of potential cardiotoxic effects of chemicals belonging to different classes, such as pesticides, industrializer and drugs.
