Stelis coarctatus

description: Stelis (Stelis) coarctatus Crawford 1916 (coarctatus group)
= Stelis (Microstelis) vernalis Mitchell, 1962: 43. New synonymy (by F. Parker and T. Griswold).
County records: Cheboygan, Kalamazoo, Livingston, Mason, Missaukee.
Notes. Mitchell (1962) did not include S. coarctatus in his treatment of the eastern species. The holotype female, deposited at NMNH, is from Kansas. The holotype female of S. vernalis, also deposited at NMNH, is from North Carolina. This species has been recorded as a cleptoparasite of Heriades carinata Cresson (see Sheffield et al. 2008). It was reared from Heriades carinata nests in Michigan by Matthews (1965 as vernalis), but also from Hoplitis (Proteriades) shoshone (Parker) in Nevada (Parker 1976), suggesting a broad host range.

description: In this semi-expository article we solve the diophantine equation $m^5+(4 \cdot 5^4 b^4)mn^4 - n^5=1$ for all integers $b \neq 0$. This gives an example of a family of quintic Thue equations that can be solved completely by using nothing more than Skolem's $p$-adic method. We also give a general introduction to Skolem's method from a modern perspective.

description: The pion structure in Minkowski space is explored using the Nakanishi integral representation. A general framework is developed for the pion Bethe-Salpeter amplitude based on the Kallen-Lehmann representation of the dressed quarks with an ansatz for the pseudo-scalar $π-q\bar q$ vertex fulfilling the axial Ward-Takahashi identity. The Nakanishi weight functions are derived for the scalar amplitudes associated with the decomposition of the pion Bethe-Salpeter amplitude in different operator bases in the Dirac spinor space in terms of the involved spectral densities. The approach is applied to an analytical model of the pion Bethe-Salpeter amplitude, which is combined with Landau gauge lattice QCD results for the quark running mass at space-like momentum. From the Nakanishi integral representation several pion observables were calculated, such as the decay constant, the spin decomposition of the valence probabilities, longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions from the valence component of the light-front wave function.

description: The Mittag-Leffler function is computed via a quadrature approximation of a contour integral representation. We compare results for parabolic and hyperbolic contours, and give special attention to evaluation on the real line. The main point of difference with respect to similar approaches from the literature is the way that poles in the integrand are handled. Rational approximation of the Mittag-Leffler function on the negative real axis is also discussed.

description: Objective: To examine associations of time spent sitting in cars with markers of cardio-metabolic risk in Australian adults. Method: Data were from 2800 participants (age range: 34–65) in the 2011–12 Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle Study. Self-reported time spent in cars was categorized into four groups: ≤ 15 min/day; > 15 to ≤ 30 min/day; > 30 to ≤ 60 min/day; and > 60 min/day. Markers of cardio-metabolic risk were body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, triglycerides, HDL (high-density lipoprotein)-cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose, 2-h plasma glucose, a clustered cardio-metabolic risk score, and having the metabolic syndrome or not. Multilevel linear and logistic regression analyses examined associations of car time with each cardio-metabolic risk outcome, adjusting for socio-demographic and behavioral variables and medication use for blood pressure and cholesterol/triglycerides. Results: Compared to spending 15 min/day or less in cars, spending more than 1 h/day in cars was significantly associated with higher BMI, waist circumference, fasting plasma glucose, and clustered cardio-metabolic risk, after adjusting for socio-demographic attributes and potentially relevant behaviors including leisure-time physical activity and dietary intake. Gender interactions showed car time to be associated with higher BMI in men only. Conclusions: Prolonged time spent sitting in cars, in particular over 1 h/day, was associated with higher total and central adiposity and a more-adverse cardio-metabolic risk profile. Further studies, ideally using objective measures of sitting time in cars and prospective designs, are needed to confirm the impact of car use on cardio-metabolic disease risk.

Social Connectedness Across the Psychosis Spectrum: Current Issues and Future Directions for Interventions in Loneliness
Creators: name: Lim, Michelle
name: Gleeson, John F.
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Loneliness, sometimes referred to as “perceived social isolation,” is defined as a subjective experience of social isolation. Loneliness has been shown to be related more to the quality of social relationships than to the quantity, and is typically characterized by feelings of social disconnection (e.g., being misunderstood by others). It occurs when there is a discrepancy between desired and actual amounts of social interaction. Humans are a social species and have a fundamental need to belong. Feelings of loneliness have been perceived to be early warning signals of potential threats to psychological health (akin to physical pain in physical health problems). Loneliness is associated with an increased risk of various health conditions (e.g., increased inflammation, decreased immunity) and can occur in transient and chronic forms across the lifespan.

description: Bilingual dictionaries are expensive resources and not many are available when one of the languages is resource-poor. In this paper, we propose algorithms for creation of new reverse bilingual dictionaries from existing bilingual dictionaries in which English is one of the two languages. Our algorithms exploit the similarity between word-concept pairs using the English Wordnet to produce reverse dictionary entries. Since our algorithms rely on available bilingual dictionaries, they are applicable to any bilingual dictionary as long as one of the two languages has Wordnet type lexical ontology.

description: Direct numerical simulations of flows in cylinders subjected to both rapid rotation and axial precession are presented and analysed in the context of a stability theory based on the triadic resonance of Kelvin modes. For a case that was chosen to provide a finely tuned resonant instability with a small nutation angle, the simulations are in good agree- ment with the theory and previous experiments in terms of mode shapes and dynamics, including long-timescale regularization of the flow and recurrent collapses. Cases not tuned to the most unstable triad, but with the nutation angle still small, are also in quite good agreement with theoretical predictions, showing that the presence of viscosity makes the physics of the triadic resonance model robust to detuning. Finally, for a case with 45◦ nutation angle for which it has been suggested that resonance does not occur, the simulations show that a slowly growing triadic resonance predicted by theory is in fact observed if sufficient evolution time is allowed.

Thermophysical properties of supercritical water and bond flexibility
Creators: name: Shvab, I.
name: Sadus, Richard
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Molecular dynamics results are reported for the thermodynamic properties of supercritical water using examples of both rigid (TIP4P/2005) and flexible (TIP4P/2005f) transferable interaction potentials. Data are reported for pressure, isochoric and isobaric heat capacities, the thermal expansion coefficient, isothermal and adiabatic compressibilities, Joule-Thomson coefficient, speed of sound, self-diffusion coefficient, viscosities, and thermal conductivity. Many of these properties have unusual behavior in the supercritical phase such as maximum and minimum values. The effectiveness of bond flexibility on predicting these properties is determined by comparing the results to experimental data. The influence of the intermolecular potential on these properties is both variable and state point dependent. In the vicinity of the critical density, the rigid and flexible potentials yield very different values for the compressibilities, heat capacities, and thermal expansion coefficient, whereas the self-diffusion coefficient, viscosities, and thermal conductivities are much less potential dependent. Although the introduction of bond flexibility is a computationally expedient way to improve the accuracy of an intermolecular potential, it can be counterproductive in some cases and it is not an adequate replacement for incorporating the effects of polarization.

description: As practical and sustainable tools for improved management of natural and artificial water storage and distribution systems, this report examines the NbS to ensure balanced, high-quality water availability for multiple purposes, including drinking water, irrigation, and natural ecosystem requirements. The characterization of demo sites and the consideration of the stakeholders’ requirements in previous Work Package 2 and 3, has led to the identification of NbS for each demo site.

The prioritisation of NbS alongside artificial water infrastructure, such as reservoirs, not only enhances water management but also yields numerous economic, social, and environmental co-benefits at a basin scale.

description: Since the start of full science operations from 2004, the Submillimeter Array has been implementing plans to expand IF bandwidths and upgrade receivers and cryostats. Metal mesh low-pass filters were designed to block infrared (IR) radiation to reduce the thermal load on the cryostats. Filters were fabricated on a quartz wafer through photolithography and coated with anti-reflection (AR) material. The filters were tested from 200 to 400 GHz to verify their passband performances. The measurement results were found to be in good agreement with EM simulation results. They were tested in the far-infrared (FIR) frequency range to verify out-of-band rejection. The IR reflectivity was found to be approximately 70%, which corresponded to the percentage of the area blocked by metal.

description: Ultrashort pulsed lasers, operating through the phenomenon of mode-locking, have had a significant role in many facets of our society for 50 years, for example, in the way we exchange information, measure and diagnose diseases, process materials, and in many other applications. Recently, high-quality resonators have been exploited to demonstrate optical combs. The ability to phase-lock their modes would allow mode-locked lasers to benefit from their high optical spectral quality, helping to realize novel sources such as precision optical clocks for applications in metrology, telecommunication, microchip-computing, and many other areas. Here we demonstrate the first mode-locked laser based on a microcavity resonator. It operates via a new mode-locking method, which we term filter-driven four-wave mixing, and is based on a CMOS-compatible high quality factor microring resonator. It achieves stable self-starting oscillation with negligible amplitude noise at ultrahigh repetition rates, and spectral linewidths well below 130 kHz.

On top of the usual two-body contact and long-range dipolar interactions we add a contact three-body repulsion as expected, in particular, for dipoles in the bilayer geometry with tunneling. The three-body repulsion is crucial for stabilizing the system, and we show that our model allows for stable continuous space supersolid states in the dilute regime and calculate the zero-temperature phase diagram.

description: We consider soft-core bosons with on-site interaction loaded in the honeycomb lattice with different site energies for the two sublattices. Using both a mean-field approach and quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we show that the topology of the honeycomb lattice results in a nonvanishing Berry curvature for the band structure of the single-particle excitations of the system. This Berry curvature induces an anomalous Hall effect when driving the system out of equilibrium. It is seen by studying the time evolution of a wave packet, namely, a superfluid ground state in a harmonic trap, subjected either to a constant force (Bloch oscillations) or to a sudden shift of the trap center.

description: The formation and evolution of galaxies require large reservoirs of cold, neutral gas. The damped Lyα systems (DLAs), seen in absorption toward distant quasars and gamma-ray bursts, are predicted to be the dominant reservoirs for this gas. Detailed properties of DLAs have been studied extensively for decades with great success. However, their size, fundamental in understanding their nature, has remained elusive, as quasar and gamma-ray-burst sightlines only probe comparatively tiny areas of the foreground DLAs. Here, we introduce a new approach to measure the full extent of DLAs in the sightlines to extended background sources. We present the discovery of a high-column-density (log N(H i) = 21.1 + 0.4 cm-2) DLA at covering 90%-100% of the luminous extent of a line-of-sight background galaxy. Estimates of the size of the background galaxy range from a minimum of a few kpc2 to ∼100 kpc2 and demonstrate that high-column-density neutral gas can span continuous areas 108-1010 times larger than previously explored in quasar or gamma-ray-burst sightlines. The DLA presented here is the first from a sample of DLAs in our pilot survey that searches Lyman break and Lyman continuum galaxies at high redshift. The low luminosities, large sizes, and mass contents (106-109 ) implied by this DLA and the early data suggest that DLAs contain the necessary fuel for galaxies, with many systems consistent with relatively massive, low-luminosity primeval galaxies.

description: We revisit the main H I-to-stellar mass ratio (gas fraction) scaling relations, taking advantage of the H I spectral stacking technique to understand the dependence of gas content on the structural and star formation properties of nearby galaxies. This work uses a volume-limited, multiwavelength sample of ∼25 000 galaxies, selected according to stellar mass (109 M⊙ ≤ M⋆ ≤ 1011.5 M⊙) and redshift (0.02 ≤ z ≤ 0.05) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, and with H I data from the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA survey. We bin according to multiple parameters of galaxies spanning the full gas-poor to -rich regime in order to disentangle the dominance of different components and processes in influencing gas content. For the first time, we show that the scaling relations of gas fraction with stellar mass and stellar surface density are primarily driven by a combination of the underlying galaxy bimodality in specific star formation rate and the integrated Kennicutt–Schmidt law. Finally, we produce tentative evidence that the time-scales of H I depletion are dependent upon galaxy mass and structure, at fixed specific star formation rate.

description: Being one of the most fascinating and ancient sciences, astronomy has always played a special role in society. In 2022 ESO organised an online conference to offer the community a platform to discuss astronomical topics of sociological and philosophical relevance in a professional atmosphere. The talks touched on several crucial aspects, moving from the methodology of science to the use of metrics, to the importance of diversity in evaluation processes, and to the link between astronomy and society.

description: Our aim is to measure the interstellar 14N/15N ratio across the Galaxy, to establish a standard data set on interstellar ammonia isotope ratios, and to provide new constraints on the Galactic chemical evolution. The (J, K ) = (1, 1), (2, 2), and (3, 3) lines of 14NH3 and 15NH3 were observed with the Shanghai Tianma 65 m radio telescope (TMRT) and the Effelsberg 100 m telescope toward a large sample of 210 sources. One hundred fourty-one of these sources were detected by the TMRT in 14NH3. Eight of them were also detected in 15NH3. For 10 of the 36 sources with strong NH3 emission, the Effelsberg 100 m telescope successfully detected their 15NH3(1, 1) lines, including 3 sources (G081.7522, W51D, and Orion-KL) with detections by the TMRT telescope. Thus, a total of 15 sources are detected in both the 14NH3 and 15NH3 lines. Line and physical parameters for these 15 sources are derived, including optical depths, rotation and kinetic temperatures, and total column densities. 14N/15N isotope ratios were determined from the 14NH3/15NH3 abundance ratios. The isotope ratios obtained from both telescopes agree for a given source within the uncertainties, and no dependence on heliocentric distance and kinetic temperature is seen. 14N/15N ratios tend to increase with galactocentric distance, confirming a radial nitrogen isotope gradient. This is consistent with results from recent Galactic chemical model calculations, including the impact of superasymptotic giant branch stars and novae.

description: This paper proposes a method for lifelong learning of Recurrent Neural Networks, such as NNARX, ESN, LSTM, and GRU, to be used as plant models in control system synthesis. The problem is significant because in many practical applications it is required to adapt the model when new information is available and/or the system undergoes changes, without the need to store an increasing amount of data as time proceeds. Indeed, in this context, many problems arise, such as the well known Catastrophic Forgetting and Capacity Saturation ones. We propose an adaptation algorithm inspired by Moving Horizon Estimators, deriving conditions for its convergence. The described method is applied to a simulated chemical plant, already adopted as a challenging benchmark in the existing literature. The main results achieved are discussed.

description: Large surface area samples of nanotextured black CuO were prepared by chemical etching of Cu for use in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The SERS intensity of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of thiophenol was proportional to the thickness of a nanoscale-conformal Au film deposited by magnetron sputtering over the black CuO. A very high SERS yield of ∼104 counts per s per mW was observed for the thiophenol SAM on the thickest Au films studied here. Synchrotron X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to confirm that the surface of the chemically etched Cu was covered by high purity CuO. IR spectral characterization of the black CuO showed a close to linear increase in reflectivity from 25 to 100% over the range of 4000-500 cm-1 wavenumbers (or 2.5-20 μm in wavelength). Sensing applications and thermal effects in SERS are discussed.

description: Context: Definition of Done (DoD) is one of the fundamental concepts of Scrum. It expresses a shared view of a Scrum Team on what makes an increment of their product complete. DoDs are often defined as checklists with items being requirements towards software (e.g., quality requirements) or towards activities performed to make the increment shippable (e.g., code reviews, testing). Unfortunately, the knowledge about the usefulness of DoD is still very limited. Objective: The goal is to study what benefits using the DoD practice can bring to an agile project, what problems it may trigger, and how it is created and maintained. Method: In the survey among members of agile software development projects, 137 practitioners from all over the globe shared their experience with us. Results: 93% of the respondents perceive DoD as at least valuable for their ventures. It helps them to make work items complete, assure product quality, and ensure the needed activities are executed. However, they indicated that every second project struggles with infeasible, incorrect, unavailable, or creeping DoD. Conclusions: It follows from the study that DoD is important but not easy to use and more empirical studies are needed to identify best practices in this area.

description: While storing invoice content as metadata to avoid paper document processing may be the future trend, almost all of daily issued invoices are still printed on paper or generated in digital formats such as PDFs. In this paper, we introduce the OCRMiner system for information extraction from scanned document images which is based on text analysis techniques in combination with layout features to extract indexing metadata of (semi-)structured documents. The system is designed to process the document in a similar way a human reader uses, i.e. to employ different layout and text attributes in a coordinated decision. The system consists of a set of interconnected modules that start with (possibly erroneous) character-based output from a standard OCR system and allow to apply different techniques and to expand the extracted knowledge at each step. Using an open source OCR, the system is able to recover the invoice data in 90% for English and in 88% for the Czech set.

description: Using Subaru/Suprime-Cam wide-field imaging and both Keck/ESI and LBT/MODS spectroscopy, we identify and characterize a compact star cluster, which we term NGC 3628-UCD1, embedded in a stellar stream around the spiral galaxy NGC 3628. The size and luminosity of UCD1 are similar to ω Cen, the most luminous Milky Way globular cluster, which has long been suspected to be the stripped remnant of an accreted dwarf galaxy. The object has a magnitude of i = 19.3 mag (Li = 1.4 × 106 L⊙). UCD1 is marginally resolved in our ground-based imaging, with a half-light radius of ∼10 pc. We measure an integrated brightness for the stellar stream of i = 13.1 mag, with (g-i) = 1.0. This would correspond an accreted dwarf galaxy with an approximate luminosity of Li∼4.1×108 L⊙. Spectral analysis reveals that UCD1 has an age of 6.6 Gyr, and We propose that UCD1 is an example of an ω Cen-like star cluster possibly forming from the nucleus of an infalling dwarf galaxy, demonstrating that at least some of the massive star cluster population may be created through tidal stripping.

description: This paper considers the impact of general hardware impairments in a multiple-antenna base station and user equipments on the uplink performance. First, the effective channels are analytically derived for distortion-aware receivers when using finite-sized signal constellations. Next, a deep feedforward neural network is designed and trained to estimate the effective channels. Its performance is compared with state-of-the-art distortion-aware and unaware Bayesian linear minimum mean-squared error (LMMSE) estimators. The proposed deep learning approach improves the estimation quality by exploiting impairment characteristics, while LMMSE methods treat distortion as noise.
