description: Bilayer van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures such as MoS2/WS2 and MoSe2/WSe2 have attracted much attention recently, particularly because of their type II band alignments and the formation of interlayer exciton as the lowest-energy excitonic state. In this work, we calculate the electronic and optical properties of such heterostructures with the first-principles GW+Bethe-Salpeter Equation (BSE) method and reveal the important role of interlayer coupling in deciding the excited-state properties, including the band alignment and excitonic properties. Our calculation shows that due to the interlayer coupling, the low energy excitons can be widely tunable by a vertical gate field. In particular, the dipole oscillator strength and radiative lifetime of the lowest energy exciton in these bilayer heterostructures is varied by over an order of magnitude within a practical external gate field. We also build a simple model that captures the essential physics behind this tunability and allows the extension of the ab initio results to a large range of electric fields. Our work clarifies the physical picture of interlayer excitons in bilayer vdW heterostructures and predicts a wide range of gate-tunable excited-state properties of 2D optoelectronic devices.

Verifying the Identity of High-Redshift Massive Galaxies Through the Clustering of Lower Mass Galaxies Around Them

description: Massive high-redshift galaxies form in over-dense regions where the probability of forming other galaxies is also strongly enhanced. Given an observed flux of a galaxy, the inferred mass of its host halo tends to be larger as its inferred redshift increases. As the mass and redshift of a galaxy halo increase, the expected clustering of other galaxies around it gets stronger. It is therefore possible to verify the high-redshift identity of a galaxy (prior to an unambiguous spectral identification) from the clustering of other galaxies around it. We illustrate this method for the massive galaxy suggested by Mobasher et al. (2005) to be at redshift z~6.5. If this galaxy were to exist at z~6.5, there should have been a mean of ~10 galaxies larger than a hundredth of its mass and having z-band magnitudes less than ~25 detected as i-dropouts in the HUDF. We calculate an approximate probability distribution for neighbor galaxies and determine that there is less than a ~0.3% chance of detecting no massive neighbor galaxies. The lack of other massive z~6.5 galaxies in the HUDF image argues that the Mobasher et al. (2005) galaxy is instead a low redshift interloper. We generalize our results to other galaxy masses and redshifts.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: We find that the overlapping of a topological quantum color code state, representing a quantum memory, with a factorized state of qubits can be written as the partition function of a 3-body classical Ising model on triangular or Union Jack lattices. This mapping allows us to test that different computational capabilities of color codes correspond to qualitatively different universality classes of their associated classical spin models. By generalizing these statistical mechanical models for arbitrary inhomogeneous and complex couplings, it is possible to study a measurement-based quantum computation with a color code state and we find that their classical simulatability remains an open problem. We complement the meaurement-based computation with the construction of a cluster state that yields the topological color code and this also gives the possibility to represent statistical models with external magnetic fields.

description: Click-down (or pull-down) menus have long been a key component of graphical user interfaces, yet we know surprisingly little about how users actually interact with such menus. Nilsen’s [8] study on menu selection has led to the development of a number of models of how users perform the task [6, 21. However, the validity of these models has not been empirically assessed with respect to eye movements (though [l] presents some interesting data that bear on these models). The present study is an attempt to provide data that can help refine our understanding of how users interact with such menus.

description: Financial networks have become extremely useful in characterizing the structure of complex financial systems. Meanwhile, the time evolution property of the stock markets can be described by temporal networks. We utilize the temporal network framework to characterize the time-evolving correlation-based networks of stock markets. The market instability can be detected by the evolution of the topology structure of the financial networks. We employ the temporal centrality as a portfolio selection tool. Those portfolios, which are composed of peripheral stocks with low temporal centrality scores, have consistently better performance under different portfolio optimization schemes, suggesting that the temporal centrality measure can be used as new portfolio optimization and risk management tools. Our results reveal the importance of the temporal attributes of the stock markets, which should be taken serious consideration in real life applications.

Math., Volume 173, (2008) 23-121] to mixed characteristic discretely valued Henselian fields with bounded ramification. We also generalize the equicharacteristic zero case of loc. cit. by giving, in all residue characteristics, an axiomatic approach (instead of only using Denef-Pas languages) and by using richer angular component maps. In this setting we prove a general change of variables formula and a general Fubini Theorem. Our set-up can be specialized to previously known versions of motivic integration by e.g. the second author and J. Sebag and to classical p-adic integrals.

Eye Movements Do Not Reflect Retrieval Processes: Limits of the Eye-Mind Hypothesis

description: This research investigated whether eye movements are informative about retrieval processes. Participants learned facts about persons and locations, and the number of facts (fan) learned about each person and location was manipulated. During a subsequent recognition test, participants made more gazes to high-fan facts than to low-fan facts, and gazes to high-fan facts had a longer duration than gazes to low-fan facts. However, there was no relation between the order in which items were fixated and the relative effect of person or location fan. The effect of person and location fan on gaze duration also did not differ with whether it was the person or location being fixated. A model assuming that the process of retrieval is independent of eye movements was successfully fit to the data on the distribution of gaze durations. According to this model, the effect of fan on number of gazes and gaze duration is an artifact of the longer retrieval times for high-fan facts.

description: Due to the lack of information such as the space environment condition and resident space objects' (RSOs') body characteristics, current orbit predictions that are solely grounded on physics-based models may fail to achieve required accuracy for collision avoidance and have led to satellite collisions already. This paper presents a methodology to predict RSOs' trajectories with higher accuracy than that of the current methods. Inspired by the machine learning (ML) theory through which the models are learned based on large amounts of observed data and the prediction is conducted without explicitly modeling space objects and space environment, the proposed ML approach integrates physics-based orbit prediction algorithms with a learning-based process that focuses on reducing the prediction errors. Using a simulation-based space catalog environment as the test bed, the paper demonstrates three types of generalization capability for the proposed ML approach: 1) the ML model can be used to improve the same RSO's orbit information that is not available during the learning process but shares the same time interval as the training data; 2) the ML model can be used to improve predictions of the same RSO at future epochs; and 3) the ML model based on a RSO can be applied to other RSOs that share some common features.

description: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been proposed as potential carriers of the unidentified infrared bands (UIRs) and the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs). PAHs are not likely to form by gas-phase or solid-state interstellar chemistry, but rather might be produced in the outflows of carbon-rich evolved stars. PAHs could form from acetylene addition to the phenyl radical (C6H5), which is closely chemically related to benzene (C6H6) and ortho-benzyne (o-C6H4). To date, circumstellar chemical models have been limited to only a partial treatment of benzene-related chemistry, and so the expected abundances of these species are unclear. A detection of benzene has been reported in the envelope of the proto-planetary nebula (PPN) CRL 618, but no other benzene-related species has been detected in this or any other source. The spectrum of o-C6H4 is significantly simpler and stronger than that of C6H5, and so we conducted deep Ku-, K- and Q-band searches for o-C6H4 with the Green Bank Telescope. No transitions were detected, but an upper limit on the column density of 8.4x10^13 cm^-2 has been determined. This limit can be used to constrain chemical models of PPNe, and this study illustrates the need for complete revision of these models to include the full set of benzene-related chemistry.

description: Coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) for visualizing objects at atomic resolution has been realized as a promising tool for imaging single molecules. Drawbacks of CDI are associated with the difficulty of the numerical phase retrieval from experimental diffraction patterns; a fact which stimulated search for better numerical methods and alternative experimental techniques. Common phase retrieval methods are based on iterative procedures which propagate the complex-valued wave between object and detector plane. Constraints in both, the object and the detector plane are applied. While the constraint in the detector plane employed in most phase retrieval methods requires the amplitude of the complex wave to be equal to the squared root of the measured intensity, we propose a novel Fourier-domain constraint, based on an analogy to holography. Our method allows achieving a low-resolution reconstruction already in the first step followed by a high-resolution reconstruction after further steps. In comparison to conventional schemes this Fourier-domain constraint results in a fast and reliable convergence of the iterative reconstruction process.

Free streaming in mixed dark matter

description: Free streaming in a \emph{mixture} of collisionless non-relativistic dark matter (DM) particles is studied by implementing methods from the theory of multicomponent plasmas. The mixture includes Fermionic, condensed and non condensed Bosonic particles decoupling in equilibrium while relativistic, heavy non-relativistic thermal relics (WIMPs), and sterile neutrinos that decouple \emph{out of equilibrium} when they are relativistic. The free-streaming length $λ_{fs}$ is obtained from the marginal zero of the gravitational polarization function, which separates short wavelength Landau-damped from long wavelength Jeans-unstable \emph{collective} modes. At redshift $z$ we find $ \frac{1}{λ^2_{fs}(z)}= \frac{1}{(1+z)} \big[\frac{0.071}{\textrm{kpc}} \big]^2 \sum_{a}ν_a g^{2/3}_{d,a}({m_a}/{\mathrm{keV}})^2 I_a $,where $0\leq ν_a \leq 1$ are the \emph{fractions} of the respective DM components of mass $m_a$ that decouple when the effective number of ultrarelativistic degrees of freedom is $g_{d,a}$, and $I_a$ only depend on the distribution functions at decoupling, given explicitly in all cases. If sterile neutrinos produced either resonantly or non-resonantly that decouple near the QCD scale are the \emph{only} DM component,we find $λ_{fs}(0) \simeq 7 \mathrm{kpc} (\mathrm{keV}/m)$ (non-resonant), $λ_{fs}(0) \simeq 1.73 \mathrm{kpc} (\mathrm{keV}/m)$ (resonant).If WIMPs with $m_{wimp} \gtrsim 100 \mathrm{GeV}$ decoupling at $T_d \gtrsim 10 \mathrm{MeV}$ are present in the mixture with $ν_{wimp} \gg 10^{-12}$,$λ_{fs}(0) \lesssim 6.5 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{pc}$ is \emph{dominated} by CDM. If a Bose Einstein condensate is a DM component its free streaming length is consistent with CDM because of the infrared enhancement of the distribution function.

description: We explore how the star formation efficiency in a protocluster clump is regulated by metallicity dependent stellar winds from the newly formed massive OB stars (Mstar >5 Msol). The model describes the co-evolution of the mass function of gravitationally bound cores and of the IMF in a protocluster clump. Dense cores are generated uniformly in time at different locations in the clump, and contract over lifetimes that are a few times their free fall times. The cores collapse to form stars that power strong stellar winds whose cumulative kinetic energy evacuates the gas from the clump and quenches further core and star formation. This sets the final star formation efficiency, SFEf. Models are run with various metallicities in the range Z/Zsol=[0.1,2]. We find that the SFEf decreases strongly with increasing metallicity.The SFEf-metallicity relation is well described by a decaying exponential whose exact parameters depend weakly on the value of the core formation efficiency. We find that there is almost no dependence of the SFEf-metallicity relation on the clump mass. This is due to the fact that an increase (decrease) in the clump mass leads to an increase (decrease) in the feedback from OB stars which is opposed by an increase (decrease) in the gravitational potential of the clump. The clump mass-cluster mass relations we find for all of the different metallicity cases imply a negligible difference between the exponent of the mass function of the protocluster clumps and that of the young clusters mass function. By normalizing the SFEs to their value for the solar metallicity case, we compare our results to SFE-metallicity relations derived on galactic scales and find a good agreement. As a by-product of this study, we also provide ready-to-use prescriptions for the power of stellar winds of main sequence OB stars in the mass range [5,80] Msol in the metallicity range we have considered

description: The determination of the optical spectrum of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is essential for the development of opto-electronic components and sensors with application in many fields. Real SWCNTs are finite, but almost all the studies performed so far use infinite SWCNTs. However, the spectra of finite and infinite systems are different. In this work the optical spectrum of finite (3,3) and (5,5) SWCNTs is calculated as a function of nanotube length. For the (3,3) SWCNTs, the calculated absorption spectra for light polarised both parallel and perpendicularly to the nanotube axis are in good agreement with experimental results. However, our results indicate that the lowest energy peak present in the experimental results for light polarised parallel to the nanotube axis can be attributed to a surface-plasmon resonance that is a consequence of the finite nature of the SWCNTs and not to the presence of SWCNTs with other chiralities, as claimed by the previous theoretical works. The surface-plasmon resonance is also studied using the Aharonov-Bohm effect. Finally, this work demonstrates that the surface-plasmon resonance in finite SWCNT can be described using a 1D infinite well.

description: The personality trait of extraversion has been linked to problematic drinking patterns. Researchers have long hypothesized that such associations are attributable to increased alcohol-reward sensitivity among extraverted individuals, and surveys suggest that individuals high in extraversion gain greater mood enhancement from alcohol than those low in extraversion. Surprisingly, however, alcohol administration studies have not found individuals high in extraversion to experience enhanced mood following alcohol consumption. Of note, prior studies have examined extraverted participants-individuals who self-identify as being highly social-consuming alcohol in isolation. In the present research, we used a group drinking paradigm to examine whether individuals high in extraversion gained greater reward from alcohol than did those low in extraversion and, further, whether a particular social mechanism (partners’ Duchenne smiling) might underlie alcohol reward sensitivity among extraverted individuals. Social drinkers (n 720) consumed a moderate dose of alcohol, placebo, or control beverage in groups of 3 over the course of 36 min. This social interaction was video-recorded, and Duchenne smiling was coded using the Facial Action Coding System. Results indicated that participants high in extraversion reported significantly more mood enhancement from alcohol than did those low in extraversion. Further, mediated moderation analyses focusing on Duchenne smiling of group members indicated that social processes fully and uniquely accounted for alcohol reward-sensitivity among individuals high in extraversion. Results provide initial experimental evidence that individuals high in extraversion experience increased mood-enhancement from alcohol and further highlight the importance of considering social processes in the etiology of alcohol use disorder.

description: Let $\{X_n\}$ be a stationary and ergodic time series taking values from a finite or countably infinite set ${\cal X}$. Assume that the distribution of the process is otherwise unknown. We propose a sequence of stopping times $λ_n$ along which we will be able to estimate the conditional probability $P(X_{λ_n+1}=x|X_0,...,X_{λ_n})$ from data segment $(X_0,...,X_{λ_n})$ in a pointwise consistent way for a restricted class of stationary and ergodic finite or countably infinite alphabet time series which includes among others all stationary and ergodic finitarily Markovian processes. If the stationary and ergodic process turns out to be finitarily Markovian (among others, all stationary and ergodic Markov chains are included in this class) then $ \lim_{n\to \infty} {n\over λ_n}>0$ almost surely. If the stationary and ergodic process turns out to possess finite entropy rate then $λ_n$ is upperbounded by a polynomial, eventually almost surely.

description: In the present work we perform a systematic shell model study of Gamow-Teller transition strength distributions in $sd$ shell nuclei using $ab~initio$ effective interactions. The $ab~initio$ effective interactions are based on in-medium similarity renormalization group (IM-SRG) and coupled-cluster effective interaction (CCEI) approaches. The aim of the present work is to test the predictive power of $ab~initio$ effective interactions by using the available experimental data of Gamow-Teller strength distributions in $sd$ shell nuclei. We perform calculations for $^{20}$Ne $\rightarrow$ $^{20}$F, $^{23}$Na $\rightarrow$ $^{23}$Mg, $^{23}$Na $\rightarrow$ $^{23}$Ne, $^{24}$Mg $\rightarrow$ $^{24}$Na, $^{24}$Mg $\rightarrow$ $^{24}$Al, $^{25}$Mg $\rightarrow$ $^{25}$Al, $^{26}$Mg $\rightarrow$ $^{26}$Na, $^{26}$Mg $\rightarrow$ $^{26}$Al, $^{26}$Si $\rightarrow$ $^{26}$Al, $^{27}$Al $\rightarrow$ $^{27}$Si, $^{28}$Si $\rightarrow$ $^{28}$P, $^{31}$P $\rightarrow$ $^{31}$Si, and $^{32}$S $\rightarrow$ $^{32}$P transitions. For comparison we also show the results obtained by using the phenomenological USDB Hamiltonian. The phenomenological USDB results of the Gamow-Teller (GT$_+$/GT$_-$) strength distributions show reasonable agreements with the experimental data in comparison to the $ab~initio$ interactions. We also calculate the electron capture reaction rates for $^{23}$Na(e$^-$, $ν$)$^{23}$Ne and $^{25}$Mg(e$^-$, $ν$)$^{25}$Na using $ab~initio$ and USDB interactions.

description: The existing procedural learning mechanism in ACT-R (Anderson & Lebiere, 1998) has been successful in explaining a wide range of adaptive choice behavior. However, the existing mechanism is inherently limited to learning from binary feedback (i.e. whether a reward is received or not). It is thus difficult to capture choice behavior that is sensitive to both the probabilities of receiving a reward and the reward magnitudes. By modifying the temporal difference learning algorithm (Sutton & Barto, 1998), a new procedural learning mechanism is implemented that generalizes and extends the computational abilities of the current mechanism. Models using the new mechanism were fit to three sets of human data collected from experiments of probability learning and decision making tasks. The new procedural learning mechanism fit the data at least as well as the existing mechanism, and is able to fit data that are problematic for the existing mechanism. This paper also shows how the principle of reinforcement learning can be implemented in a production system like ACT-R.

description: Interfacing superconducting quantum processors, working in the GHz frequency range, with optical quantum networks and atomic qubits is a challenging task for the implementation of distributed quantum information processing as well as for quantum communication. Using spin ensembles of rare earth ions provide an excellent opportunity to bridge microwave and optical domains at the quantum level. In this letter, we demonstrate magnetic coupling of Er$^{3+}$ spins doped in Y$_{2}$SiO$_{5}$ crystal to a high-Q coplanar superconducting resonator.

Intelligent and effective incentivization strategies towards proactive recommendations
Creators: name: Wu, S
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania
Year: 2024

description: Recommendation systems have been increasingly deployed and studied in many domains. These systems can generate appropriate recommendations to users through passively learning their behavior patterns and preferences. However, such passive recommendations can only satisfy users' requirements and demands, but cannot realize system-level objectives. Therefore, it is crucial to propose proactive recommendations that can satisfy users' requirements and implement system goals in the meanwhile.One straightforward solution is to provide incentives to users, since providing users with incentives has been verified as an effective method to promote users' specific behaviors, and has been widely adopted in many real-world applications. To effectively incentivize users, many research works have designed approaches that generate suitable incentives for each user in different scenarios. However, most existing approaches only focus on incentivizing users directly, which may require more budget to implement. Therefore, it is necessary to propose new approaches that can incentivize users effectively when the budget is insufficient.In this thesis, I focus on how to realize proactive recommendations in different scenarios by incentivizing users' behaviors by spending a limited budget. First, I conduct a preliminary investigation on the feasibility of utilizing social influence to facilitate the effect of incentives in the social network, as intuitively we can directly incentivize influential users in the social network first, and then indirectly incentivize their neighbors via social influence. Second, I further study how to incentivize users in social networks under a limited budget, where the information about the network is completely unknown. Next, motivated by the fact that most existing incentive approaches only consider incentivizing users' one-off behaviors, a novel incentive mechanism aiming to incentivize users' long-term engagement is proiv posed. Last but not least, a deep reinforcement learning framework is proposed for incentivizing users' behaviors in unknown social networks, where only the topological structure of the network is given, and users‚' attributes are unknown.
Spatially resolved star formation and dust attenuation in Mrk848: Comparison of the integral field spectra and the UV-to-IR SED

description: We investigate the star formation history and the dust attenuation in the galaxy merger Mrk848. Thanks to the multiwavelength photometry from the ultraviolet (UV) to the infrared (IR), and MaNGA's integral field spectroscopy, we are able to study this merger in a detailed way. We divide the whole merger into the core and tail regions, and fit both the optical spectrum and the multi-band spectral energy distribution (SED) to models to obtain the star formation properties for each region respectively. We find that the color excess of stars in the galaxy $E(B-V)_s^{SED}$ measured with the multi-band SED fitting is consistent with that estimated both from the infrared excess (the ratio of IR to UV flux) and from the slope of the UV continuum. Furthermore, the reliability of the $E(B-V)_s^{SED}$ is examined with a set of mock SEDs, showing that the dust attenuation of the stars can be well constrained by the UV-to-IR broadband SED fitting. The dust attenuation obtained from optical continuum $E(B-V)_s^{spec}$ is only about half of $E(B-V)_s^{SED}$. The ratio of the $E(B-V)_s^{spec}$ to the $E(B-V)_g$ obtained from the Balmer decrement is consistent with the local value (around 0.5). The difference between the results from the UV-to-IR data and the optical data is consistent with the picture that younger stellar populations are attenuated by an extra dust component from the birth clouds compared to older stellar populations which are only attenuated by the diffuse dust. Both with the UV-to-IR SED fitting and the spectral fitting, we find that there is a starburst younger than 100~Myr in one of the two core regions, consistent with the scenario that the interaction-induced gas inflow can enhance the star formation in the center of galaxies.

description: Machine learning techniques have been increasingly useful in astronomical applications over the last few years, for example in the morphological classification of galaxies. Convolutional neural networks have proven to be highly effective in classifying objects in image data. The current work aims to establish when multiple components are present, in the astronomical context of synthesis imaging observations of radio sources. To this effect, we design a convolutional neural network to differentiate between different morphology classes using sources from the Radio Galaxy Zoo (RGZ) citizen science project. In this first step, we focus on exploring the factors that affect the performance of such neural networks, such as the amount of training data, number and nature of layers and the hyperparameters. We begin with a simple experiment in which we only differentiate between two extreme morphologies, using compact and multiple component extended sources. We found that a three convolutional layer architecture yielded very good results, achieving a classification accuracy of 97.4% on a test data set. The same architecture was then tested on a four-class problem where we let the network classify sources into compact and three classes of extended sources, achieving a test achieving a test accuracy of 93.5%. The best-performing convolutional neural network setup has been verified against RGZ Data Release 1 where a final test accuracy of 94.8% was obtained, using both original and augmented images. The use of sigma clipping does not offer a significant benefit overall, except in cases with a small number of training images.

Acoustic radiation force and torque on a viscous fluid cylindrical particle nearby a planar rigid wall

description: This work presents an analytical formalism for the modal series expansions of the acoustic radiation force and radiation torque experienced by a fluid viscous cylindrical object of arbitrary geometrical cross-section placed near a planar rigid wall. A plane progressive wave field with an arbitrary angle of incidence propagating in an inviscid fluid is assumed. Initially, an effective field incident on the particle (including the principal incident field, the reflected wave-field from the boundary and the scattered field from the image object) is defined. Subsequently, the incident effective field is utilized in conjunction with the scattered one from the object, to obtain closed-form expansions for the longitudinal and transversal force components, in addition to the axial torque component, based on the scattering in the far-field. The obtained solutions involve the angle of incidence, the modal coefficients of the scatterer and its image, and the particle-wall distance. Computations are considered, and calculations exemplify the analysis with emphasis on changing the particle size, the particle-wall distance and the angle of incidence. It is found that the object experiences either an attractive or repulsive force directed toward or away from the boundary. Moreover, it reverses its rotation around its center of mass depending on its size, particle-wall distance and angle of incidence. Furthermore, radiation force and torque singularities occur (i.e., zero force and torque) such that the cylinder becomes irresponsive to the linear and angular momenta transfer yielded by the effective field. The exact formalism presented here using the multipole expansion method, which is valid for any frequency range, could be used to validate other approaches using purely numerical methods, or frequency-limiting approximate models such as the Rayleigh and the Kirchhoff regimes.

description: The evaluation of human semen is very important for diagnosis of male infertility. Combined with the analysis of seminal plasma, a comprehensive biochemical screening of human spermatozoan proteins may be of assistance in providing qualitative and quantitative information to the physician to assist with evaluation.

In this study, human spermatozoa were ruptured by sonication. The soluble spermatozoan proteins were separated from the cellular debris by centrifugation and then analyzed in dissociated forms by two dimensional electrophoresis. The separated proteins were visualized by a silver stain method.

It has been shown that these combined techniques can resolve- four to five hundred spots. Four protein spots have been tentatively identified by co-electrophoresis with purified proteins. With its high resolution and sensitivity, the technique presented may become a valuable analytical tool in andrological screening.

description: We present an extension of the framework introduced in [1] to treat multicomponent systems, showing that new degrees of freedom are necessary in order to obtain the desired boundary conditions. We then apply this extended framework to the coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations to investigate the ground states of two-component systems with equal masses thereby extending previous work in the lowest Landau limit [2] to arbitrary interactions within Gross-Pitaevskii theory. We show that away from the lowest-Landau level limit, the predominant vortex lattice consists of two interlaced triangular lattices. Finally, we derive a linear relation which accurately describes the phase boundaries in the strong interacting regimes.
