description: In this paper we discuss the representational realist stance as a pluralist ontic approach to inter-theoretic relationships. Our stance stresses the fact that physical theories require the necessary consideration of a conceptual level of discourse which determines and configures the specific field of phenomena discussed by each particular theory. We will criticize the orthodox line of research which has grounded the analysis about QM in two (Bohrian) metaphysical presuppositions -accepted in the present as dogmas that all interpretations must follow. We will also examine how the orthodox project of "bridging the gap" between the quantum and the classical domains has constrained the possibilities of research, producing only a limited set of interpretational problems which only focus in the justification of "classical reality" and exclude the possibility of analyzing the possibilities of non-classical conceptual representations of QM. The representational realist stance introduces two new problems, namely, the superposition problem and the contextuality problem, which consider explicitly the conceptual representation of orthodox QM beyond the mere reference to mathematical structures and measurement outcomes. In the final part of the paper, we revisit, from a representational realist perspective, the quantum to classical limit and the orthodox claim that this inter-theoretic relation can be explained through the principle of decoherence.

description: The discovery of spontaneous symmetry breaking in particle physics was the greatest contribution in Nambu's achievements. There is another class of symmetries that exist in the low energy nature, yet is doomed to be broken at high energy, due to a lack of protection of the gauge symmetry. I shall review our approach to search for this class of symmetry breaking, the lepton number violation linked to generation of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in our universe.

description: The research highlights the increased risk of rectus sheath hematoma (RSH) in patients with COVID-19 due to anticoagulant treatments. It emphasizes the importance of diagnosing and managing RSH in these patients to prevent unnecessary surgeries and potential fatalities. The study is described as a retrospective observational study that aims to investigate the frequency, clinical and imaging findings, and prognosis of RSH in COVID-19 patients. The study reports a 0.12% incidence of RSH among hospitalized COVID-19 patients and discusses demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms, laboratory values, and imaging modalities used for diagnosis. It also mentions the higher mortality rate associated with RSH in COVID-19 cases compared to the general population. Overall, the study emphasizes the need for physicians to be familiar with RSH in COVID-19 patients to ensure timely and effective management. The research on rectus sheath hematoma (RSH) in COVID-19 patients is important due to several reasons. First, COVID-19 predisposes patients to thrombosis, leading to increased anticoagulant use. Understanding the risk of RSH in this context can prevent fatal complications. Second, RSH is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain, and its diagnosis is crucial to avoid unnecessary surgeries. Third, the study sheds light on the increased incidence and higher mortality of RSH in COVID-19 cases, highlighting the need for early recognition and appropriate management by healthcare providers. Overall, this research contributes valuable insights to enhance patient care and prevent adverse outcomes in the context of COVID-19-related thromboinflammatory events.

description: We report on the short-time dynamics in colloidal mixtures made up of monomers and dimers highly confined between two glass-plates. At low concentrations, the experimental measurements of colloidal motion agree well with the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation at low Reynolds numbers, which takes into account the increase of the drag force on each particle due to wall-particle hydrodynamic forces. We find that the ratio of the short-time diffusion coefficients of the monomer and that of the center of mass of the dimer remains independent of both the total packing fraction and the dimer molar fraction up to concentrations near to the crystallization transition. The same physical scenario is observed for the ratio between the parallel and perpendicular components of the short-time diffusion coefficients of the dimer. This dynamical behavior is corroborated by means of Molecular Dynamics computer simulations that explicitly include the particle-particle hydrodynamic forces induced by the solvent. Thus, our results point out toward that the effects of the particle-particle hydrodynamic interactions on the diffusion coefficients are identical and, thus, factorable in both species.

description: We present H-band spectra of the candidate counterparts of five ULXs (two in NGC 925, two in NGC 4136, and Holmberg II X-1) obtained with Keck/MOSFIRE. The candidate counterparts of two ULXs (J022721+333500 in NGC 925 and J120922+295559 in NGC 4136) have spectra consistent with (M-type) red supergiants (RSGs). We obtained two epochs of spectroscopy of the candidate counterpart to J022721+333500, separated by 10 months, but discovered no radial velocity variations with a 2-$σ$ upper limit of 40 km/s. If the RSG is the donor star of the ULX, the most likely options are that either the system is seen at low inclination (< 40$^\circ$), or the black hole mass is less than 100 M$_\odot$, unless the orbital period is longer than 6 years, in which case the obtained limit is not constraining. The spectrum of the counterpart to J120922+295559 shows emission lines on top of its stellar spectrum, and the remaining three counterparts do not show absorption lines that can be associated with the atmosphere of a star; their spectra are instead dominated by emission lines. Those counterparts with RSG spectra may be used in the future to search for radial velocity variations, and, if those are present, determine dynamical constraints on the mass of the accretor.

description: We explain the multiple populations recently found in the 'prototype' Globular Cluster (GC) NGC 2808 in the framework of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) scenario. The chemistry of the five -or more- populations is approximately consistent with a sequence of star formation events, starting after the supernovae type II epoch, lasting approximately until the time when the third dredge up affects the AGB evolution (age ~90-120Myr), and ending when the type Ia supernovae begin exploding in the cluster, eventually clearing it from the gas. The formation of the different populations requires episodes of star formation in AGB gas diluted with different amounts of pristine gas. In the nitrogen-rich, helium-normal population identified in NGC 2808 by the UV Legacy Survey of GCs, the nitrogen increase is due to the third dredge up in the smallest mass AGB ejecta involved in the star formation of this population. The possibly-iron-rich small population in NGC 2808 may be a result of contamination by a single type Ia supernova. The NGC 2808 case is used to build a general framework to understand the variety of 'second generation' stars observed in GCs. Cluster-to-cluster variations are ascribed to differences in the effects of the many processes and gas sources which may be involved in the formation of the second generation. We discuss an evolutionary scheme, based on pollution by delayed type II supernovae, which accounts for the properties of s-Fe-anomalous clusters.

description: Technologies such as aerial photogrammetry allow production of 3D topographic data including complex environments such as urban areas. Therefore, it is possible to create High Resolution (HR) Digital Elevation Models (DEM) incorporating thin above ground elements influencing overland flow paths. Even though this category of big data has a high level of accuracy, there are still errors in measurements and hypothesis under DEM elaboration. Moreover, operators look for optimizing spatial discretization resolution in order to improve flood models computation time. Errors in measurement, errors in DEM generation, and operator choices for inclusion of this data within 2D hydraulic model, might influence results of flood models simulations. These errors and hypothesis may influence significantly flood modelling results variability. The purpose of this study is to investigate uncertainties related to (i) the own error of high resolution topographic data, and (ii) the modeller choices when including topographic data in hydraulic codes. The aim is to perform a Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) which goes through a Monte-Carlo uncertainty propagation, to quantify impact of uncertainties, followed by a Sobol' indices computation, to rank influence of identified parameters on result variability. A process using a coupling of an environment for parametric computation (Prom{é}th{é}e) and a code relying on 2D shallow water equations (FullSWOF 2D) has been developed (P-FS tool). The study has been performed over the lower part of the Var river valley using the estimated hydrograph of 1994 flood event. HR topographic data has been made available for the study area, which is 17.5 km 2 , by Nice municipality. Three uncertain parameters were studied: the measurement error (var. E), the level of details of above-ground element representation in DEM (buildings, sidewalks, etc.) (var. S), and the spatial discretization resolution (grid cell size for regular mesh) (var. R). Parameter var. E follows a probability density function, whereas parameters var. S and var. R. are discrete operator choices. Combining these parameters, a database of 2, 000 simulations has been produced using P-FS tool implemented on a high performance computing structure. In our study case, the output of interest is the maximal
Regularization of a massless Dirac model to describe anomalous electromagnetic response of Weyl semimetals

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: An unbounded massless Dirac model with two nondegenerate Dirac cones is the simplest model for Weyl semimetals, which show the anomalous electromagnetic response of chiral magnetic effect (CME) and anomalous Hall effect (AHE). However, if this model is naively used to analyze the electromagnetic response within a linear response theory, it gives the result apparently inconsistent with the persuasive prediction based on a lattice model. We show that this serious difficulty is related to the breaking of current conservation in the Dirac model due to quantum anomaly and can be removed if current and charge operators are redefined to include the contribution from the anomaly. We demonstrate that the CME as well as the AHE can be properly described using newly defined operators, and clarify that the CME is determined by the competition between the contribution from the anomaly and that from low-energy electrons.

description: The Galactic Ridge X-ray Emission (GRXE) is apparently extended X-ray emission along the Galactic Plane. The X-ray spectrum is characterized by hard continuum with a strong Fe K emission feature in the 6-7 keV band. A substantial fraction (~80%) of the GRXE in the Fe band was resolved into point sources by deep Chandra imaging observations, thus GRXE is mostly composed of dim Galactic X-ray point sources at least in this energy band. To investigate the populations of these dim X-ray point sources, we carried out Near-Infrared (NIR) follow-up spectroscopic observations in two deep Chandra fields located in the Galactic plane at (l,b)=(0.1{\arcdeg}, -1.4{\arcdeg}) and (28.5{\arcdeg}, 0.0{\arcdeg}) using NTT/SofI and Subaru/MOIRCS. We obtained well-exposed NIR spectra from 65 objects and found that there are three main classes of Galactic sources based on the X-ray color and NIR spectral features: those having (A) hard X-ray spectra and NIR emission features such as HI(Brγ), HeI, and HeII (2 objects), (B) soft X-ray spectra and NIR absorption features such as HI, NaI, CaI, and CO (46 objects), and (C) hard X-ray spectra and NIR absorption features such as HI, NaI, CaI and CO (17 objects). From these features, we argue that class A sources are Cataclysmic Variables (CVs), and class B sources are late-type stars with enhanced coronal activity, which is in agreement with current knowledge. Class C sources possibly belong to a new group of objects, which has been poorly studied so far. We argue that the candidate sources for class C are the binary systems hosting white dwarfs and late-type companions with very low accretion rates. It is likely that this newly recognized class of the sources contribute to a non-negligible fraction of the GRXE, especially in the Fe K band.

description: Will a new smartphone application diffuse deeply in the population or will it sink into oblivion soon? To predict this, we argue that common models of spread of innovations based on cascade dynamics or epidemics may not be fully adequate. Therefore we propose a novel stochastic network dynamics modeling the spread of a new technological asset, whose adoption is based on the word-of-mouth and the persuasion strength increases the more the product is diffused. In this paper we carry on an analysis on large scale graphs to show off how the parameters of the model, the topology of the graph and, possibly, the initial diffusion of the asset, determine whether the spread of the asset is successful or not. In particular, by means of stochastic dominations and deterministic approximations, we provide some general results for a large class of expansive graphs. Finally we present numerical simulations trying to expand the analytical results we proved to even more general topologies.

description: Titanium dioxide (TiO$_2$) has rich physical properties with potential implications in both fundamental physics and new applications. Up-to-date, the main focus of applied research is to tune its optical properties, which is usually done via doping and/or nano-engineering. However, understanding the role of $d$-electrons in materials and possible functionalization of $d$-electron properties are still major challenges. Herewith, within a combination of an innovative experimental technique, high energy optical conductivity, and of the state-of-the-art {\it ab initio} electronic structure calculations, we report an emerging, novel resonant exciton in the deep ultraviolet region of the optical response. The resonant exciton evolves upon low concentration Ta-substitution in anatase TiO$_{2}$ films. It is surprisingly robust and related to strong electron-electron and electron-hole interactions. The $d$- and $f$- orbitals localization, due to Ta-substitution, plays an unexpected role, activating strong electronic correlations and dominating the optical response under photoexcitation. Our results shed light on a new optical phenomenon in anatase TiO$_{2}$ films and on the possibility of tuning electronic properties by Ta substitution.

description: A first-principles investigation of the electronic and quantum transport properties of double-walled carbon nanotubes doped with nitrogen and boron atoms is presented. Concentric nanotube sidewalls separated by the typical graphitic van der Waals bond distance are found to strongly interact upon incorporation of doping atoms in the hexagonal networks. The local perturbation caused by the doping atoms extends over both shells due to a hybridization of their electronic states, yielding a reduction of the backscattering efficiency as compared with two independent single-walled nanotubes. A multi-scale approach for the study of transport properties in micrometer-long double-walled carbon nanotubes allows to demonstrate that transitions from the ballistic to the localized regime can occur depending on the type of doping and the energy of the charge carrier. These results shed light on the quantum mechanism by which B and N doping represent an efficient method to create mobility gaps in metallic concentric carbon nanotubes.

description: Despite its many unquestionable benefits, formal specifications are not widely used in industrial software development. In order to reduce the time and effort required to write formal specifications, in this paper we propose a technique for automatically discovering specifications from real code. The proposed methodology relies on the symbolic execution capabilities recently provided by the K framework that we exploit to automatically infer formal specifications from programs that are written in a non-trivial fragment of C, called KernelC. Roughly speaking, our symbolic analysis of KernelC programs explains the execution of a (modifier) function by using other (observer) routines in the program. We implemented our technique in the automated tool Kindspec 2.0, which generates axioms that describe the precise input/output behavior of C routines that handle pointer-based structures (i.e., result values and state change). We describe the implementation of our system and discuss the differences w.r.t. our previous work on inferring specifications from C code.

description: Written responses can provide a wealth of data in understanding student reasoning on a topic. Yet they are time- and labor-intensive to score, requiring many instructors to forego them except as limited parts of summative assessments at the end of a unit or course. Recent developments in Machine Learning (ML) have produced computational methods of scoring written responses for the presence or absence of specific concepts. Here, we compare the scores from one particular ML program -- EvoGrader -- to human scoring of responses to structurally- and content-similar questions that are distinct from the ones the program was trained on. We find that there is substantial inter-rater reliability between the human and ML scoring. However, sufficient systematic differences remain between the human and ML scoring that we advise only using the ML scoring for formative, rather than summative, assessment of student reasoning.

description: The strain rate dependence of the plastic yield and failure properties displayed by most metals affects energies, forces and forming limits involved in high speed forming processes. In this contribution a technique is presented to assess the influence of the strain rate on the forming properties of Ti6Al4V sheet. In a first step, static and dynamic tensile experiments are carried out using a classical tensile test device and a split Hopkinson tensile bar facility respectively. Next to uniaxial tensile, also purpose-developed plain strain and shear stress samples are tested. The experimental results clearly show that the mechanical behaviour of Ti6Al4V is strain rate dependent. Indeed, with increasing strain rate, plastic stress levels increase, however, this occurs at the expense of the deformation capacity. Subsequently, to allow simulation of forming processes, Johnson-Cook, Swift and Voce material model parameters are determined. Finally, the influence of the strain rate on the forming limits is assessed using the uni-axial tensile test results. Prediction of the initiation of necking in the Ti6Al4V sheets subjected to multi-axial strain states is based on the Marciniak-Kuczynski model. The thus obtained forming limit diagrams (FLDs) show a non-negligible effect of the strain rate. The reduced ductility at higher strain rates is reflected into an unfavourable downward shift of the FLD. Compared with the experimental data, the static FLD is clearly conservative.

description: This study presents and validates a novel (non-ECG-triggered) MRI sequence based on SPAtial Modulation of the Magnetization (SPAMM) to non-invasively measure 3D (quasi-static) soft tissue deformations using only six acquisitions (three static and three indentations). In current SPAMM tagged MRI approaches data is typically constructed from many repeated motion cycles. This has so far restricted its application to the measurement of highly repeatable and periodic movements (e.g. cardiac deformation). In biomechanical applications where soft tissue deformation is artificially induced, often by indentation, significant repeatability constraints exist and, for clinical applications, discomfort and health issues generally preclude a large number of repetitions.

description: Magnetic Pulse Welding (MPW) is a joining technique favorable for the generation of strong atomic bonded areas between different metals, e.g. aluminum and steel. Brittle intermetallic phases can be avoided due to the high-speed collision and the absence of external heat. The demand for the use of this technique in industries like automotive and plant engineering rises. However, workpieces used in these fields are often coated, e.g. in order to improve the corrosion resistance. Since the weld quality depends on the material’s behavior at the collision zone, surface layers in that region have to be taken into account as well. This work investigates the influences of different coating types. Aluminum to steel welding is used as an example system. On the inner steel part (C45) coatings like zinc, nickel and chrome are applied, while the aluminum flyer tubes (EN AW-6060) are anodized, chromated and passivated. Welding tests are performed using two different welding systems with varying discharging frequencies and four geometrical part setups. For all combinations, the flyer velocity during the process is measured by Photon Doppler Velocimetry (PDV). By using the uncoated material combination as a reference, the removal of surface layers due to jetting is analyzed. Finally, the weld quality is characterized in peel tests, shear-push tests and by the help of metallographic analysis. It is found that certain coatings improve the joint formation, while others are obstructive for the performance of MPW. Some coatings have no influence on the joining process at all.

description: According to standard stellar evolution, lithium abundance is believed to be a useful indicator of the stellar age. However, many evolved stars like red giants show huge fluctuations around expected theoretical abundances that are not yet fully understood. The better knowledge of nuclear reactions that contribute to the creation and destruction of lithium can help to solve this puzzle. In this work we apply the Gamow shell model (GSM) formulated in the coupled-channel representation (GSM-CC) to investigate the mirror radiative capture reactions $^6$Li$(p,γ)$$^7$Be and $^6$Li$(n,γ)$$^7$Li. The cross-sections are calculated using a translationally invariant Hamiltonian with the finite-range interaction which is adjusted to reproduce spectra, binding energies and one-nucleon separation energies in $^{6-7}$Li, $^7$Be. All relevant $E1$, $M1$, and $E2$ transitions from the initial continuum states to the final bound states $J={3/2}_1^-$ and $J={1/2}^-$ of $^7$Li and $^7$Be are included. We demonstrate that the $s$-wave radiative capture of proton (neutron) to the first excited state $J^π=1/2_1^+$ of $^7$Be ($^7$Li) is crucial and increases the total astrophysical $S$-factor by about 40 \%.

Termination of canonical context-sensitive rewriting and productivity of rewrite systems

description: Termination of programs, i.e., the absence of infinite computations, ensures the existence of normal forms for all initial expressions, thus providing an essential ingredient for the definition of a normalization semantics for functional programs. In lazy functional languages, though, infinite data structures are often delivered as the outcome of computations. For instance, the list of all prime numbers can be returned as a neverending stream of numerical expressions or data structures. If such streams are allowed, requiring termination is hopeless. In this setting, the notion of productivity can be used to provide an account of computations with infinite data structures, as it "captures the idea of computability, of progress of infinite-list programs" (B.A. Sijtsma, On the Productivity of Recursive List Definitions, ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 11(4):633-649, 1989). However, in the realm of Term Rewriting Systems, which can be seen as (first-order, untyped, unconditional) functional programs, termination of Context-Sensitive Rewriting (CSR) has been showed equivalent to productivity of rewrite systems through appropriate transformations. In this way, tools for proving termination of CSR can be used to prove productivity. In term rewriting, CSR is the restriction of rewriting that arises when reductions are allowed on selected arguments of function symbols only. In this paper we show that well-known results about the computational power of CSR are useful to better understand the existing connections between productivity of rewrite systems and termination of CSR, and also to obtain more powerful techniques to prove productivity of rewrite systems.
