Publisher: name: New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), Division of Science, Research and Technology
Year: 2003

description: As part of a study of exposure to and risk from potential emissions of asbestos from the Southdown Quarry (now Cemex), a series of rock core segments representing each ofmultiple depths were acquired from historical drill core samples of Quarry material. The samples were then analyzed for the determination of asbestos and related structures. Results are summarized below along with an evaluation of the quality (reliability) of these measurements. Results are then interpreted to evaluate asbestos-related exposures and the attendant risks potentially associated with work at the quarry.

description: Die mit der Tagung im März 2019 an der Universität Koblenz-Landau in Landau gegründete Gruppe „f3 - Fachdidaktische Forschungsperspektiven Funktionen“ tauscht sich als Zusammenarbeit mehrerer Standorte zum Thema Funktionales Denken regelmäßig in (Mini-)Symposien aus. Dies soll auch in Zukunft unter Einbeziehung weiterer Standorte und Forschender vorangetrieben werden. Seit den Meraner Reformen 1905 um Felix Klein steht das Schlagwort „Erziehung zum Funktionalen Denken“ für eine flächendeckende Verbreitung des Begriffs mit all seinen Facetten im gesamten Mathematikunterricht. Lernende sollen in Funktionen denken lernen, d.h. funktionales Denken entwickeln (Vollrath, 1989). Dazu braucht es aber passende Lerngelegenheiten, die u.a. durch geeignete Lernumgebungen geschaffen werden können. Gerade in den letzten Jahren gab es zunehmend Forschungsprojekte, die den Begriff „Funktionales Denken“ bzw. die Lernprozesse zum funktionalen Denken in den Mittelpunkt des Forschungsvorhabens stellen (z.B. Klinger, 2018; Lichti, 2019; Zindel, 2019; Ruchniewicz, 2022). Dabei spielen die zugrundeliegenden Lernumgebungen eine zentrale Rolle.

description: The National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation Survey is one of the oldest and most comprehensive continuing recreation surveys. It is a partnership effort with the States and national conservation organizations, and has become one of the most important sources of information on fish and wildlife recreation in the U.S. It is a useful tool that quantifies the economic impact of wildlife-based recreation. Federal, State, and private organizations use this detailed information to manage wildlife, market products, and look for trends. The 2001 Survey is the tenth in a series that began in 1955. The purpose of the Survey is to gather information on the number of anglers, hunters, and wildlife-watching participants in the U.S. This report focuses on 2001 participation and expenditures and provides information on participation in wildlife-related recreation in 2000. In addition to the 2001 numbers, it also provides 11-year trend data.

description: Let $E$ be an elliptic curve---defined over a number field $K$---without complex multiplication and with good ordinary reduction at all the primes above a rational prime $p \geq 5$. We construct a pairing on the dual $p^\infty$-Selmer group of $E$ over any strongly admissible $p$-adic Lie extension $K_\infty/K$ under the assumption that it is a torsion module over the Iwasawa algebra of the Galois group $G=\operatorname{Gal}(K_\infty/K)$. Under some mild additional hypotheses this gives an algebraic functional equation of the conjectured $p$-adic L-function. As an application we construct completely faithful Selmer groups in case the $p$-adic Lie extension is obtained by adjoining the $p$-power division points of another non-CM elliptic curve $A$.

description: There are, besides remdesivir, no approved antivirals for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infections. To aid in the search for antivirals against this virus, we explored the use of human tracheal airway epithelial cells (HtAEC) and human small airway epithelial cells (HsAEC) grown at the air-liquid interface (ALI). These cultures were infected at the apical side with one of two different SARS-CoV-2 isolates. Each virus was shown to replicate to high titers for extended periods of time (at least 8 days) and, in particular an isolate with the D614G in the spike (S) protein did so more efficiently at 35 ◦C than 37 ◦C. The effect of a selected panel of reference drugs that were added to the culture medium at the basolateral side of the system was explored. Remdesivir, GS-441524 (the parent nucleoside of remdesivir), EIDD-1931 (the parent nucleoside of molnupiravir) and IFN (β1 and λ1) all resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of viral RNA and infectious virus titers collected at the apical side. However, AT-511 (the free base form of AT-527 currently in clinical testing) failed to inhibit viral replication in these in vitro primary cell models. Together, these results provide a reference for further studies aimed at selecting SARS-CoV-2 inhibitors for further preclinical and clinical development.

description: We give a non-perturbative construction of a distinguished state for the quantized Dirac field in Minkowski space in the presence of a time-dependent external field of the form of a plane electromagnetic wave. By explicit computation of the fermionic signature operator, it is shown that the Dirac operator has the strong mass oscillation property. We prove that the resulting fermionic projector state is a Hadamard state.
The intermediate neutron capture process. III. The i-process in AGB stars of different masses and metallicities without overshoot

description: Alongside the slow (s) and rapid (r) neutron capture processes, an intermediate neutron capture process (i-process) is thought to exist. It happens when protons are mixed in a convective helium-burning zone, and is referred to as proton ingestion event (PIE). A possible astrophysical site is the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase of low-mass low-metallicity stars. We provide i-process yields of a grid of AGB stars experiencing PIEs. We computed 12 models with initial masses of 1, 2, and 3 $M_{\odot}$ and metallicities of [Fe/H] $=-3.0$, $-2.5$ $-2.3,$ and $-2.0, $ with the stellar evolution code STAREVOL. We used a nuclear network of 1160 species at maximum, coupled to the chemical transport equations. These simulations do not include any extra mixing process. Proton ingestion takes place in six out of our 12 AGB models. These models experience i-process nucleosynthesis characterized by neutron densities of $\simeq 10^{14} -10^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$. Depending on the PIE properties two different evolution paths follow: either the stellar envelope is quickly lost and no more thermal pulses develop or the AGB phase resumes with additional thermal pulses. This behaviour critically depends on the pulse number when the PIE occurs, the mass of the ingested protons, and the extent to which the pulse material is diluted in the convective envelope. The surface enrichment after a PIE is a robust feature of our models and it persists under various convective assumptions. Our models can synthesise heavy elements up to Pb without any parametrized extra mixing process such as overshoot or inclusion of a $^{13}$C-pocket. Nevertheless, it remains to be explored how the i-process depends on mixing processes, such as overshoot, thermohaline, or rotation.

description: Die Grundidee des Projekts „Authentic-STEM“ ist es, deutsche und amerikanische Jugendliche im Alter von 13-18 Jahren in gemeinsamen internationalen Projektteams (Solver-Teams) zu begleiten. Diese arbeiten an authentischen mathematikhaltigen MINT-Problemstellungen aus Unternehmen (z. B. Modellierung, Optimierung, Big Data, Produktdesign etc.) im Bereich der Digitalisierung über einen Zeitraum von vier Monaten. Dabei werden die Solver-Teams bei der Lösung und Kommunikation untereinander sowie mit den Unternehmen durch Mentor*innen (z. B. erfahrene Lehramtsstudierende, Lehrer*innen oder wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiter*innen) unterstützt (Marx & Stoffels, 2022). Diese Mentor*innen arbeiten eng mit den beteiligten Unternehmen und den dort für das Projekt verantwortlichen Mitarbeitenden zusammen, um die Problemstellungen zunächst zielgruppengerecht zu identifizieren und vorzustellen. In Authentic-STEM erhalten interessierte Jugendliche so die Möglichkeit, konkret zu erleben, wie sie ihr Schulwissen in der Arbeitswelt bei der Lösung echter Probleme anwenden können.

description: We demonstrate efficient generation of coherent super-octave pulses via a single-stage spectral broadening of a Yb:KGW laser in a single, pressurized, Ne-filled, hollow-core fiber capillary. Emerging pulses spectrally spanning over more than $\sim$1 PHz (250 nm- 1600 nm) at a dynamic range of $\sim$60 dB, and an excellent beam quality open the door to combining Yb:KGW lasers with modern light field synthesis techniques. Compression of a fraction of the generated supercontinuum to intense (8 fs, $\sim$2.4 cycle, $\sim$650 $μ$J) pulses allows convenient use of these novel laser sources in strong-field physics and attosecond science.

description: I examine the mean consensus time (i.e., exit time) of the voter model in the so-called two-clique graph. The two-clique graph is composed of two cliques interconnected by some links and considered as a toy model of networks with community structure or multilayer networks. I analytically show that, as the number of interclique links per node is varied, the mean consensus time experiences a crossover between a fast consensus regime [i.e., O(N)] and a slow consensus regime [i.e., O(N^2)], where N is the number of nodes. The fast regime is consistent with the result for homogeneous well-mixed graphs such as the complete graph. The slow regime appears only when the entire network has O(1) interclique links. The present results suggest that the effect of community structure on the consensus time of the voter model is fairly limited.

New York/ New Jersey Harbor: Alternative Methods for Ex-Situ Sediment Decontamination and Environmental Manufacturing
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Year: 2002

description: The natural accumulation of sediment in the NY/NJ harbor reduces its depth and to allow ships to travel in the harbor, 3-5 million cubic yards of sediment must be dredged from annually. In response to a growing concern over contamination in the harbor, which has resulted in higher costs and regulations on ocean disposal, Congress created the Water Resources Development Acts (WRDA). This Act created steps to establish a plan to manufacture a beneficial use product from the dredged sediment. Government programs have conducted small-scale studies of decontamination and environmental manufacturing methods developed by companies. This report provides an overview of pilot studies of five firms. Descriptions of each firm's decontamination and product conditioning process, along with the process' decontamination efficiency and by-products are included in this paper. The nature of the beneficial use product and a simple economic analysis comparing the costs and credits associated with each firm are also discussed.

description: The deliverable reports on the collaborative methodology and tools for the technical development of the Pilots of the Polifonia Project. Technical development is coordinated by a Technical Board that designed a methodology inspired by agile software development methodologies, adapted to the needs of a research project consortium. Developers and domain experts are engaged in collaborative workshops in a co-creation process that leads to the identification of task-oriented working groups. These are developed autonomously and associated to Work Package activities. Technical outputs of the activities are collected and harmonised into a Polifonia Ecosystem - a collection of resources for musical cultural heritage preservation and reuse (software, end-user tools, data, requirement specifications, documentation, etc...). The collaborative tools for development are centred on a share space on GitHub, a Discord server for instant messaging, and a mailing list. The deliverable report on the initial work conducted on the pilots, particularly focusing on highlighting collaboration among consortium partners and shared of expertise between domain experts (musicologists, music historians) and technology experts. Finally, the deliverable illustrates preliminary plans for a Polifonia Web Portal, an aggregator of Musical Heritage Knowledge.

description: Biomembranes and vesicles consisting of multiple phases can attain a multitude of shapes, undergoing complex shape transitions. We study a Cahn–Hilliard model on an evolving hypersurface coupled to Navier–Stokes equations on the surface and in the surrounding medium to model these phenomena. The evolution is driven by a curvature energy, modelling the elasticity of the membrane, and by a Cahn–Hilliard type energy, modelling line energy effects. A stable semidiscrete finite element approximation is introduced and, with the help of a fully discrete method, several phenomena occurring for two-phase membranes are computed.

description: Das Lösen von mathematischen Problemen ist eine zentrale Grundlage für das Betreiben von Mathematik. Außerhalb des Schulunterrichts liegen diese Probleme jedoch nur selten vorgefertigt vor und müssen zunächst entwickelt werden. Die Entwicklung eigener Probleme (Problem Posing) hat in den letzten Jahren in der mathematikdidaktischen Forschung stark an Bedeutung gewonnen. Insbesondere gilt das Problem Posing als ein gewinnbringender Ansatz zur Förderung des Problemlösens, da die Entwicklung eigener Probleme wichtige Problemlöseprozesse anspricht (Cai & Leikin, 2020). Das Modellieren kann als Problemlösen realweltlicher Probleme charakterisiert werden. Demnach ist es möglich, dass Problem Posing zu gegebenen realweltlichen Situationen (modellierungsbezogenes Problem Posing) auch zur Förderung des mathematischen Modellierens gewinnbringend eingesetzt werden kann. Bisher existiert nur wenig Forschung zum Problem Posing aus Modellierungsperspektive. Um das Potential des Problem Posings für das Modellieren zu untersuchen, soll die Verbindung zwischen den Problem Posing und Modellierungsprozessen aus einer kognitiven Perspektive analysiert werden.

description: Hot Jupiters on extremely short-period orbits are expected to be unstable to tidal dissipation and spiral toward their host stars. That is because they transfer the angular momentum of the orbital motion through tidal dissipation into the stellar interior. Although the magnitude of this phenomenon is related to the physical properties of a specific star-planet system, statistical studies show that tidal dissipation might shape the architecture of hot Jupiter systems during the stellar lifetime on the main sequence. The efficiency of tidal dissipation remains poorly constrained in star-planet systems. Stellar interior models show that the dissipation of dynamical tides in radiation zones could be the dominant mechanism driving planetary orbital decay. These theoretical predictions can be verified with the transit timing method. We acquired new precise transit mid-times for five planets. They were previously identified as the best candidates for which orbital decay might be detected. Analysis of the timing data allowed us to place tighter constraints on the orbital decay rate. No statistically significant changes in their orbital periods were detected for all five hot Jupiters in systems HAT-P-23, KELT-1, KELT-16, WASP-18, and WASP-103. For planets HAT-P-23 b, WASP-18 b, and WASP-103 b, observations show that the mechanism of the dynamical tides dissipation probably does not operate in their host stars, preventing them from rapid orbital decay. This finding aligns with the models of stellar interiors of F-type stars, in which dynamical tides are not fully damped due to convective cores. For KELT-16 b, the span of transit timing data was not long enough to verify the theoretical predictions. KELT-1 b was identified as a potential laboratory for studying the dissipative tidal interactions of inertial waves in a convective layer.

description: With the aim of derive a quasi-monomiality formulation in the context of discrete hypercomplex variables, one will amalgamate through a Clifford-algebraic structure of signature $(0,n)$ the umbral calculus framework with Lie-algebraic symmetries. The exponential generating function ({\bf EGF}) carrying the {\it continuum} Dirac operator $D=\sum_{j=1}^n\e_j\partial_{x_j}$ together with the Lie-algebraic representation of raising and lowering operators acting on the lattice $h\BZ^n$ is used to derive the corresponding hypercomplex polynomials of discrete variable as Appell sets with membership on the space Clifford-vector-valued polynomials. Some particular examples concerning this construction such as the hypercomplex versions of falling factorials and the Poisson-Charlier polynomials are introduced. Certain applications from the view of interpolation theory and integral transforms are also discussed.

We present the first study of the $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N abundance ratio in the outer regions of the Milky Way (namely, for galactocentric distances, $R_{\rm GC}$, from 12 kpc up to 19 kpc), with the aim to study the stellar nucleosynthesis effects in the global Galactic trend. We analysed IRAM 30m observations towards a sample of 35 sources in the context of the CHEMical complexity in star-forming regions of the OUTer Galaxy (CHEMOUT) project. We derived the $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N ratios from HCN and HNC for 14 and 3 sources, respectively, using the $J$ = 1-0 rotational transition of HN$^{13}$C, H$^{15}$NC, H$^{13}$CN, and HC$^{15}$N. The results found in the outer Galaxy have been combined with previous measurements obtained in the inner Galaxy. We find an overall linear decreasing H$^{13}$CN/HC$^{15}$N ratio with increasing $R_{\rm GC}$. This translates to a parabolic $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N ratio with a peak at 11 kpc. Updated Galactic chemical evolution models have been taken into account and compared with the observations. The parabolic trend of the $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N ratio with $R_{\rm GC}$ can be naturally explained (i) by a model that assumes novae as the main $^{15}$N producers on long timescales ($\ge$1 Gyr) and (ii) by updated stellar yields for low- and intermediate-mass stars.

description: The primary objective of the Hudson River PCBs Superfund Site remedy is to protect public health and the environment from unacceptable risks due to PCB-contaminated sediments in the Upper Hudson River. The purpose of facility siting is to identify locations (within the defined boundaries of the study area) that meet the objectives of a sediment-processing/transfer facility. The identification of Preliminary Candidate Sites (PCSs) represents the second milestone in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) facility siting process. This Facility Siting Update Report Technical Memorandum (technical memorandum) provides the results of detailed evaluation and screening used to identify the PCSs. The PCSs are those sites that are being recommended for further consideration in the facility siting process.

description: In this work we study the transport properties of non-interacting overdamped particles, moving on tilted disordered potentials, subjected to Gaussian white noise. We give exact formulas for the drift and diffusion coefficients for the case of random potentials resulting from the interaction of a particle with a "random polymer". In our model the "random polymer" is made up, by means of some stochastic process, of monomers that can be taken from a finite or countable infinite set of possible monomer types. For the case of uncorrelated random polymers we found that the diffusion coefficient exhibits a non-monotonous behavior as a function of the noise intensity. Particularly interesting is the fact that the relative diffusivity becomes optimal at a finite temperature, a behavior which is reminiscent to that of stochastic resonance. We explain this effect as an interplay between the deterministic and noisy dynamics of the system. We also show that this behavior of the diffusion coefficient at a finite temperature is more pronounced for the case of weakly disordered potentials. We test our findings by means of numerical simulations of the corresponding Langevin dynamics of an ensemble of noninteracting overdamped particles diffusing on uncorrelated random potentials.

description: It is known that mixed quantum states are highly entropic states of imperfect knowledge (i.e., incomplete information) about a quantum system, while pure quantum states are states of perfect knowledge (i.e., complete information) with vanishing von Neumann entropy. In this paper, we propose an information geometric theoretical construct to describe and, to a certain extent, understand the complex behavior of evolutions of quantum systems in pure and mixed states. The comparative analysis is probabilistic in nature, it uses a complexity measure that relies on a temporal averaging procedure along with a long-time limit, and is limited to analyzing expected geodesic evolutions on the underlying manifolds. More specifically, we study the complexity of geodesic paths on the manifolds of single-qubit pure and mixed quantum states equipped with the Fubini-Study metric and the Sjoqvist metric, respectively. We analytically show that the evolution of mixed quantum states in the Bloch ball is more complex than the evolution of pure states on the Bloch sphere. We also verify that the ranking based on our proposed measure of complexity, a quantity that represents the asymptotic temporal behavior of an averaged volume of the region explored on the manifold during the evolution of the systems, agrees with the geodesic length-based ranking. Finally, focusing on geodesic lengths and curvature properties in manifolds of mixed quantum states, we observed a softening of the complexity on the Bures manifold compared to the Sjoqvist manifold.

description: Pion superfluid phase transition under external magnetic field including the inverse magnetic catalysis (IMC) effect is investigated by the Pauli-Villars regularized NJL model. Based on the Goldstone's theorem, we apply the massless Goldstone boson ($π^+$ meson) to determine the onset of pion superfluid phase. The inverse magnetic catalysis effect is introduced by the magnetic field dependent coupling $G(eB)$, which is a decreasing function of magnetic field. At fixed temperature and baryon chemical potential, the critical isospin chemical potential for pion superfluid phase transition including IMC effect increases as the magnetic field grows, which is similar as the case without IMC effect. This demonstrates that magnetic field disfavors the pion superfluid phase when considering or ignoring IMC effect. The critical isospin chemical potential at fixed magnetic field, temperature and baryon chemical potential is shifted to higher value by the IMC effect. Since it is more difficult to form pion superfluid with weaker coupling.

description: Chiral magnets support topological skyrmion textures due to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya spin-orbit interaction. In the presence of a sufficiently large applied magnetic field, such skyrmions are large amplitude excitations of the field-polarized magnetic state. We investigate analytically the interaction between such a skyrmion excitation and its small amplitude fluctuations, i.e., the magnons in a clean two-dimensional chiral magnet. The magnon spectrum is found to include two magnon-skyrmion bound states corresponding to a breathing mode and, for intermediate fields, a quadrupolar mode, which will give rise to subgap magnetic and electric resonances. Due to the skyrmion topology, the magnons scatter from a Aharonov-Bohm flux density that leads to skew and rainbow scattering, characterized by an asymmetric differential cross section with, in general, multiple peaks. As a consequence of the skew scattering, a finite density of skyrmions will generate a topological magnon Hall effect. Using the conservation law for the energy-momentum tensor, we demonstrate that the magnons also transfer momentum to the skyrmion. As a consequence, a magnon current leads to magnon pressure reflected in a momentum-transfer force in the Thiele equation of motion for the skyrmion. This force is reactive and governed by the scattering cross sections of the skyrmion; it causes not only a finite skyrmion velocity but also a large skyrmion Hall effect. Our results provide, in particular, the basis for a theory of skyrmion caloritronics for a dilute skyrmion gas in clean insulating chiral magnets.

We find that the impact of dark energy perturbations on $γ$ is enhanced if the dark energy equation of state has a large and rapid decay at low redshift. We study four different models with these features and show that we may have $0.33

description: In compact astrophysical objects, the neutrino density can be so high that neutrino-neutrino refraction can lead to fast flavor conversion of the kind $ν_e \barν_e \leftrightarrow ν_x \barν_x$ with $x=μ,τ$, depending on the neutrino angle distribution. Previously, we have shown that in a homogeneous, axisymmetric two-flavor system, these collective solutions evolve in analogy to a gyroscopic pendulum. In flavor space, its deviation from the weak-interaction direction is quantified by a variable $\cos\vartheta$ that moves between $+1$ and $\cos\vartheta_{\rm min}$, the latter following from a linear mode analysis. As a next step, we include collisional damping of flavor coherence, assuming a common damping rate $Γ$ for all modes. Empirically we find that the damped pendular motion reaches an asymptotic level of pair conversion $f=A+(1-A)\cos\vartheta_{\rm min}$ (numerically $A\simeq 0.370$) that does not depend on details of the angular distribution (except for fixing $\cos\vartheta_{\rm min}$), the initial seed, nor $Γ$. On the other hand, even a small asymmetry between the neutrino and antineutrino damping rates strongly changes this picture and can even enable flavor instabilities in otherwise stable systems.
