description: COVID-19 has hit hard on the global community, and organizations are working diligently to cope with the new norm of "work from home". However, the volume of remote work is unprecedented and creates opportunities for cyber attackers to penetrate home computers. Attackers have been leveraging websites with COVID-19 related names, dubbed COVID-19 themed malicious websites. These websites mostly contain false information, fake forms, fraudulent payments, scams, or malicious payloads to steal sensitive information or infect victims' computers. In this paper, we present a data-driven study on characterizing and detecting COVID-19 themed malicious websites. Our characterization study shows that attackers are agile and are deceptively crafty in designing geolocation targeted websites, often leveraging popular domain registrars and top-level domains. Our detection study shows that the Random Forest classifier can detect COVID-19 themed malicious websites based on the lexical and WHOIS features defined in this paper, achieving a 98% accuracy and 2.7% false-positive rate.

Review of Forward Physics at RHIC

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Experiment (nucl-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The RHIC high energy collision of species ranging from p+p, p(d)+A to A+A provide access to the {small-x} component of the hadron wave function. The RHIC program has brought renewed interest in that subject with its ability to reach values of the parton momentum fraction smaller than 0.01 with studies of particle production at high rapidity. Furthermore, the use of heavy nuclei in the p(d)+A collisions facilitates the study of saturation effects in the gluonic component of the nuclei because the appropriate scale for that regime grows as A^1/3. We review the experimental results of the RHIC program that have relevance to {small-x} emphasizing the physics extracted from d+Au collisions and their comparison to p+p collisions at the same energy.

description: The basic mechanism responsible for the widespread condensation of MgS in the outflows from carbon rich stars on the tip of the AGB is discussed with the aim of developing a condensation model that can be applied in model calculations of dust formation in stellar winds. The different possibilities how MgS may be formed in the chemical environment of outflows from carbon stars are explored by some thermochemical calculations and by a detailed analysis of the growth kinetics of grains in stellar winds. The optical properties of core-mantle grains with a MgS mantle are calculated to demonstrate that such grains reproduce the structure of the observed 30 $μ$m feature. These considerations are complemented by model calculations of circumstellar dust shells around carbon stars. It is argued that MgS is formed via precipitation on silicon carbide grains. This formation mechanism explains some of the basic observed features of MgS condensation in dust shells around carbon stars. A weak secondary peak at about 33 ... 36 $μ$m is shown to exist in certain cases if MgS forms a coating on SiC.

description: We investigate theoretically productions of $^{3,4}_Λ$H bound states in the exothermic ($K^-$, $π^0$) reactions on $^{3,4}$He targets at $p_{K^-}=$ 1.0 GeV/c in a distorted-wave impulse approximation with the optimal Fermi-averaging $K^-p\toπ^0Λ$ $t$ matrix. We calculate angular distributions of the laboratory differential cross sections $dσ/dΩ_{\rm lab}$ and the integrated cross sections $σ_{\rm lab}$ for a $J^P= 0^+$ ground state and a $J^P=1^+$ excited state of $^4_Λ$H at $π^0$ forward-direction angles of $θ_{\rm lab}=$ 0$^\circ$-20$^\circ$, and those for a $J^P= 1/2^+$ ground state of $^3_Λ$H. The production of a $J^P=3/2^+$ excited state of $^3_Λ$H as a virtual state is also evaluated. The comparison in $dσ/dΩ_{\rm lab}$ and $σ_{\rm lab}$ between $^4_Λ$H and $^3_Λ$H provides examining the mechanism of the production and structure of $^{3,4}_Λ$H, as well as in the endothermic ($π^-$, $K^0$) reactions at $p_{π^-}=$ 1.05 GeV/c. This investigation confirms the feasibility of lifetime measurements of $^3_Λ$H at the J-PARC experiments.

description: The deformability of a compact object under the presence of a tidal perturbation is encoded in the tidal Love numbers (TLNs), which vanish for isolated black holes in vacuum. We show that the TLNs of black holes surrounded by matter fields do not vanish and can be used to probe the environment around binary black holes. In particular, we compute the TLNs for the case of a black hole surrounded by a scalar condensate under the presence of scalar and vector tidal perturbations, finding a strong power-law behavior of the TLN in terms of the mass of the scalar field. Using this result as a proxy for gravitational tidal perturbations, we show that future gravitational-wave detectors like the Einstein Telescope and LISA can impose stringent constraints on the mass of ultralight bosons that condensate around black holes due to accretion or superradiance. Interestingly, LISA could measure the tidal deformability of dressed black holes across the range from stellar-mass ($\approx 10^2 M_\odot$) to supermassive ($\approx 10^7 M_\odot$) objects, providing a measurement of the mass of ultralight bosons in the range $(10^{-17} - 10^{-13}) \, {\rm eV}$ with less than $10\%$ accuracy, thus filling the gap between other superradiance-driven constraints coming from terrestrial and space interferometers. Altogether, LISA and Einstein Telescope can probe tidal effects from dressed black holes in the combined mass range $(10^{-17} - 10^{-11}) \, {\rm eV}$.

Hamiltonian reduction of spin-two theory and of solvable cosmologies

Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Hamiltonian reduction of the massless spin-two field theory is carried out following the Faddeev-Jackiw approach. The reduced Hamiltonian contains only the traceless-transverse fields, but not all of the non-propagating components can be determined by the constraints of the theory. The reason for this is found in the fact that the Hamiltonian is not gauge invariant. Consequences and implications for General Relativity are discussed and illustrated on the example of Robertson-Walker cosmologies with a scalar field. Also, it it shown that for those explicitely solvable models, the reduced form of the dynamics uniquely determines the operator ordering that has to be adopted in the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in order to maintain consistency.

description: We investigate dynamics of recurrent neural networks with correlated noise to analyze the noise's effect. The mechanism of correlated firing has been analyzed in various models, but its functional roles have not been discussed in sufficient detail. Aoyagi and Aoki have shown that the state transition of a network is invoked by synchronous spikes. We introduce two types of noise to each neuron: thermal independent noise and correlated noise. Due to the effects of correlated noise, the correlation between neural inputs cannot be ignored, so the behavior of the network has sample dependence. We discuss two types of associative memory models: one with auto- and weak cross-correlation connections and one with hierarchically correlated patterns. The former is similar in structure to Aoyagi and Aoki's model. We show that stochastic transition can be presented by correlated rather than thermal noise. In the latter, we show stochastic transition from a memory state to a mixture state using correlated noise. To analyze the stochastic transitions, we derive a macroscopic dynamic description as a recurrence relation form of a probability density function when the correlated noise exists. Computer simulations agree with theoretical results.

description: We consider aligning self-propelled particles in two dimensions. Their motion is given by generalized Langevin equations and includes non-additive N-particle interactions. The qualitative behavior is as for the famous Vicsek model. We develop a kinetic theory of flocking beyond mean field. In particular, we self-consistently take into account the full pair correlation function. We find excellent quantitative agreement of the pair correlations with direct agent-based simulations within the disordered regime. Furthermore we use a closure relation to incorporate spatial correlations of three particles. In that way we achieve good quantitative agreement of the onset of flocking with direct simulations. Compared to mean field theory, the flocking transition is shifted significantly towards lower noise because directional correlations favor disorder. We compare our theory with a recently developed Landau-kinetic theory.

description: Based on a proper definition of the spin current, we investigate the spin-Hall effect of heavy holes in narrow quantum wells in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling by using a spin-density matrix approach. In contrast to previous results obtained on the basis of the conventional definition of the spin current, we arrive at the conclusion that an electric-field-induced steady-state spin-Hall current does not exist in both, pure and disordered infinite samples. Only an ac field can induce a spin-Hall effect in such systems.

description: We investigate the extent to which leptonic CP-violation in (3+2) sterile neutrino models leads to different oscillation probabilities for $\barν_μ\to\barν_e$ and $ν_μ\toν_e$ oscillations at MiniBooNE. We are using a combined analysis of short-baseline (SBL) oscillation results, including the LSND and null SBL results, to which we impose additional constraints from atmospheric oscillation data. We obtain the favored regions in MiniBooNE oscillation probability space for both (3+2) CP-conserving and (3+2) CP-violating models. We further investigate the allowed CP-violation phase values and the MiniBooNE reach for such a CP violation measurement. The analysis shows that the oscillation probabilities in MiniBooNE neutrino and antineutrino running modes can differ significantly, with the latter possibly being as much as three times larger than the first. In addition, we also show that all possible values of the single CP-violation phase measurable at short baselines in (3+2) models are allowed within 99% CL by existing data.

description: This dissertation focuses on the educational framework of the usage of electronic games in teaching practices and, in particular, in the subject of Religious Education. It presents the board game design and the pilot implementation of a digital literacy environment in the form of an electronic game in Religious Education, followed by two research methods, a qualitative and a quantitative one among primary school pupils. The game is classified as an "educational game" and is related to the figure of the Apostle Paul, one of the most beloved dearest Apostles of the Orthodox Christian Tradition, and his missionary journeys for the expansion of the Church. The game is also related to a great variety of teaching units of different classes and educational levels (Primary School, Junior High School, Senior High School). It is designed as a traditional board game, both in its function and its appearance, but, at the same time, there has been a didactic transposition for teaching purposes as well as renewed in context and religious meaning according to the Orthodox Christian Tradition.
A study of college registrars in British Columbia
Creators: name: Howman, Cynthia Joan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study dealt with college registrars in the Canadian province of British Columbia. The purpose of this study was three-fold: (i) to gather information concerning the personal characteristics, career paths and academic preparation of college registrars, (ii) to identify the types of professional development activities to which these individuals subscribe, and (iii) to determine the professional development needs and preferences of college registrars. A review of the scholarly literature revealed a limited number of studies dealing with college registrars. No Canadian studies were found which dealt with this subject matter. Other related literature was sought out, particularly studies which dealt with the personal characteristics and work histories of other nonacademic post secondary educational administrators. A questionnaire was mailed to all college registrars in British Columbia (N = 18). Seventeen individuals responded. From the information gathered via the questionnaire, several conclusions were drawn and a profile of the average college registrar in British Columbia was developed. This profile identifies the registrar as being a male who is roughly forty-six years of age. He is employed by a comprehensive community college and earns approximately $64,000 annually. He has held this position for close to eight years. This individual has completed an undergraduate degree in the field of science or mathematics although, he believes that there is no "preferred" form of undergraduate education for potential registrars. He has developed an understanding of the computer technologies utilized at his college through "hands-on" experience and is largely self-taught. Prior to becoming a registrar he had worked full-time for twelve years and had held at least two other positions within a college or university. When desire or circumstances necessitate a job change, this person would seek a position such as Dean or Director of Student & Ancillary Services or Vice-President, Student Services and Administration. This individual did not actively pursue the goal of becoming a college registrar. Given that this individual did not intend to become a registrar, it is not surprising to find that his academic preparation was not planned with a view to future work as an administrator in an institution of higher learning. The college registrar enjoys attending workshops, seminars and meetings sponsored by the British Columbia Registrars' Association (BCRA). He is a member of this organization as well as the Association of Registrars of Universities and Colleges of Canada (ARUCC) and, the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO). Several conclusions were drawn and recommendations were made.

description: We present the prospects for the pre-merger detection and localization of binary neutron star mergers with third generation gravitational-wave observatories. We consider a wide variety of gravitational-wave networks which may be operating in the 2030's and beyond; these networks include up to two Cosmic Explorer sites, the Einstein Telescope, and continued observation with the existing second generation ground-based detectors. For a fiducial local merger rate of 300 Gpc$^{-3}$yr$^{-1}$, we find that the Einstein Telescope on its own is able to detect 6 and 2 sources per year at 5 and 30 minutes before merger, respectively, while providing a localization of $<10~\textrm{deg}^2$. A single Cosmic Explorer would detect but be unable to localize sources on its own. A two-detector Cosmic Explorer network, however, would detect 22 and 0.4 mergers per year using the same criteria. A full three-detector network with the operation of dual Cosmic Explorers and the Einstein Telescope would allow for $<1~\textrm{deg}^2$ source localization at 5 minutes before merger for $\sim7$ sources per year. Given the dramatic increase in localization and detection capabilities, third generation observatories will enable the regular observation of the prompt emission of mergers by a broad array of observatories including gamma-ray, x-ray, and optical telescopes. Moreover, sub-degree localizations minutes before merger, combined with narrow-field-of-view high-energy telescopes, could strongly constrain the high-energy pre-merger emission models proposed in the last decade.

description: We investigate supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking scenarios where both SUSY and Lorentz symmetry are broken spontaneously. For concreteness, we propose models in which scalar fluid or vector condensation breaks Lorentz symmetry and accordingly SUSY. Then, we examine whether such scenarios are viable for realistic model buildings. We find, however, that the scalar fluid model suffers from several issues. Then, we extend it to a vector condensation model, which avoids the issues in the scalar fluid case. We show that accelerated expansion and soft SUSY breaking in matter sector can be achieved. In our simple setup, the soft SUSY breaking is constrained to be less than $\mathcal{O}(100)$TeV from the constraints on modification of gravity.

description: There is no doubt that management practices are linked to the productivity and performance of a company. However, research findings are mixed. This paper provides a multi-disciplinary review of the current evidence of such a relationship and offers suggestions for further exploration. We provide an extensive review of the literature in terms of research findings from studies that have been trying to measure and understand the impact that individual management practices and clusters of management practices have on productivity at different levels of analysis. We focus our review on Operations Management (om) and Human Resource Management (hrm) practices as well as joint applications of these practices. In conclusion, we can say that taken as a whole, the research findings are equivocal. Some studies have found a positive relationship between the adoption of management practices and productivity, some negative and some no association whatsoever. We believe that the lack of universal consensus on the effect of the adoption of complementary management practices might be driven either by measurement issues or by the level of analysis. Consequently, there is a need for further research. In particular, for a multi-level approach from the lowest possible level of aggregation up to the firm-level of analysis in order to assess the impact of management practices upon the productivity of firms.
Finite-Range Electromagnetic Interaction and Magnetic Charges: Spacetime Algebra or Algebra of Physical Space?

description: A new finite-range electromagnetic (EM) theory containing both electric and magnetic charges constructed using two vector potentials A^{} and Z^{} is formulated in the spacetime algebra (STA) and in the algebra of the three-dimensional physical space (APS) formalisms. Lorentz, local gauge and EM duality invariances are discussed in detail in the APS formalism. Moreover, considerations about signature and dimensionality of spacetime are discussed. Finally, the two formulations are compared. STA and APS are equally powerful in formulating our model, but the presence of a global commuting unit pseudoscalar in the APS formulation and the consequent possibility of providing a geometric interpretation for the imaginary unit employed throughout classical and quantum physics lead us to prefer the APS approach.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας ήταν η μελέτη του προληπτικού ελέγχου των δημοσίων συμβάσεων από το Ελεγκτικό Συνέδριο. Αφού γίνεται μία ιστορική αναδρομή από την θέσπιση του προληπτικού ελέγχου των δημοσίων συμβάσεων έως και σήμερα, στη συνέχεια οριοθετείται το αντικείμενο του ελέγχου. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, γίνεται αναφορά στις έννοιες της ¨μεγάλης οικονομικής αξίας¨, της ¨αναθέτουσας αρχής¨ και τέλος στα είδη των συμβάσεων που εμπίπτουν στον ως άνω έλεγχο. Έπειτα εξετάζεται ο έλεγχος αυτός καθ’ αυτός, με έμφαση στην χρονική αρμοδιότητα του Ελεγκτικού Συνεδρίου, στην διαδικασία του ελέγχου, τα ένδικα μέσα, την περιβαλλόμενη δικονομία τους και την έκτασή του. Τέλος, εξετάζεται η φύση της εκδιδόμενης Πράξης του Ελεγκτικού Συνεδρίου και κατ’ επέκταση η φύση του διενεργούμενου ελέγχου σε συνάρτηση με την άλλοτε αντιφατική και άλλοτε συγκλίνουσα νομολογία των τριών Ανωτάτων Δικαστηρίων, προκειμένου συνοψίζοντας να εξαχθούν συμπεράσματα αναφορικά με την φημολογούμενη σύγκρουση αρμοδιοτήτων.
description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of the preventive audit of the public procurements by the Greek Audit Court. After a historical review from the introduction of the preventive audit of the public procurements until today, subsequently the subject to audit is been defined. More specifically, a reference is made to the meaning of “great economic value”, “contracting authority” and last to the type of the procurements that appertain to the audit above. Afterwards, the audit as such is been examined, focused on the temporal jurisdiction, the procedures, the appeal and its extent. Finally, we examined the nature of the act by the Greek Audit Court and consequently the nature of the carried audit in accordance with the case-law of the three Supreme Courts in order to draw conclusions regarding the alleged conflict of competence.

description: Multi-label learning handles instances associated with multiple class labels. The original label space is a logical matrix with entries from the Boolean domain $\in \left \{ 0,1 \right \}$. Logical labels are not able to show the relative importance of each semantic label to the instances. The vast majority of existing methods map the input features to the label space using linear projections with taking into consideration the label dependencies using logical label matrix. However, the discriminative features are learned using one-way projection from the feature representation of an instance into a logical label space. Given that there is no manifold in the learning space of logical labels, which limits the potential of learned models. In this work, inspired from a real-world example in image annotation to reconstruct an image from the label importance and feature weights. We propose a novel method in multi-label learning to learn the projection matrix from the feature space to semantic label space and projects it back to the original feature space using encoder-decoder deep learning architecture. The key intuition which guides our method is that the discriminative features are identified due to map the features back and forth using two linear projections. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first attempts to study the ability to reconstruct the original features from the label manifold in multi-label learning. We show that the learned projection matrix identifies a subset of discriminative features across multiple semantic labels. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets show the superiority of the proposed method.

description: We introduce an N=8 supersymmetric extension of the Bogomolny-type model for Yang-Mills-Higgs fields in 2+1 dimensions related with twistor string theory. It is shown that this model is equivalent to an N=8 supersymmetric U(n) chiral model in 2+1 dimensions with a Wess-Zumino-Witten-type term. Further reduction to 1+1 dimensions yields N=(8,8) supersymmetric extensions of the standard U(n) chiral model and Grassmannian sigma models.

description: We discuss the adiabatic basis dependence of particle number in time-dependent backgrounds. In particular, we focus on preheating after inflation, and show that, for the optimal basis, the time dependence of the produced particle number can be well approximated by a simple connection formula, which can be obtained by analysing Stokes phenomenon in given backgrounds. As we show explicitly, the simple connection formula can describe various parameter regions such as narrow and broad resonance regime in a unified manner.

description: We consider the hidden subgroup problem on the semi-direct product of cyclic groups $\Z_{N}\rtimes\Z_{p}$ with some restriction on $N$ and $p$. By using the homomorphic properties, we present a class of semi-direct product groups in which the structures of subgroups can be easily classified. Furthermore, we show that there exists an efficient quantum algorithm for the hidden subgroup problem on the class.

description: The rapid growth of research in exploiting machine learning to predict chaotic systems has revived a recent interest in Hamiltonian Neural Networks (HNNs) with physical constraints defined by the Hamilton's equations of motion, which represent a major class of physics-enhanced neural networks. We introduce a class of HNNs capable of adaptable prediction of nonlinear physical systems: by training the neural network based on time series from a small number of bifurcation-parameter values of the target Hamiltonian system, the HNN can predict the dynamical states at other parameter values, where the network has not been exposed to any information about the system at these parameter values. The architecture of the HNN differs from the previous ones in that we incorporate an input parameter channel, rendering the HNN parameter--cognizant. We demonstrate, using paradigmatic Hamiltonian systems, that training the HNN using time series from as few as four parameter values bestows the neural machine with the ability to predict the state of the target system in an entire parameter interval. Utilizing the ensemble maximum Lyapunov exponent and the alignment index as indicators, we show that our parameter-cognizant HNN can successfully predict the route of transition to chaos. Physics-enhanced machine learning is a forefront area of research, and our adaptable HNNs provide an approach to understanding machine learning with broad applications.

description: This postgraduate work, deals with the issue of political murders. More specifically, in this work, there are a conceptual and historical approach to the phenomenon. In the conceptual approach, a clarification of the term of political assassination is attempted, while in the historical approach, there are mentioned some typical political assassinations, as well as murders that took place in the city of Thessaloniki during the 20th century. At the same time, three major assassinations that occurred in the city of Thessaloniki and shocked whole Greece, were analyzed. In this analysis, a historical approach is made to these assassinations and also there are made attempts to clarify the real causes of these killings and their connection with the political situation of the period. Lastly, on the basis of previous surveys, the consequences of political assassinations on the political stability of the country concerned, are recorded.

The Leidenfrost effect as a directed percolation phase transition
Creators: name: Chantelot, Pierre

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Volatile drops deposited on a hot solid can levitate on a cushion of their own vapor, without contacting the surface. We propose to understand the onset of this so-called Leidenfrost effect through an analogy to non-equilibrium systems exhibiting a directed percolation phase transition. When performing impacts on superheated solids, we observe a regime of spatiotemporal intermittency in which localized wet patches coexist with dry regions on the substrate. We report a critical surface temperature, which marks the upper bound of a large range of temperatures in which levitation and contact coexist. In this range, with decreasing temperature, the equilibrium wet fraction increases continuously from zero to one. Also, the statistical properties of the spatio-temporally intermittent regime are in agreement with that of the directed percolation universality class. This analogy allows us to redefine the Leidenfrost temperature and shed light on the physical mechanisms governing the transition to the Leidenfrost state.

Importance of Supernovae at z<0.1 for Probing Dark Energy
Creators: name: Linder, Eric V.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Supernova experiments to characterize dark energy require a well designed low redshift program; we consider this for both ongoing/near term (e.g. Supernova Legacy Survey) and comprehensive future (e.g. SNAP) experiments. The derived criteria are: a supernova sample centered near z=0.05 comprising 150-500 (in the former case) and 300-900 (in the latter case) well measured supernovae. Low redshift Type Ia supernovae play two important roles for cosmological use of the supernova distance-redshift relation: as an anchor for the Hubble diagram and as an indicator of possible systematics. An innate degeneracy in cosmological distances implies that 300 nearby supernovae nearly saturate their cosmological leverage for the first use, and their optimum central redshift is z=0.05. This conclusion is strengthened upon including velocity flow and magnitude offset systematics. Limiting cosmological parameter bias due to supernova population drift (evolution) systematics plausibly increases the requirement for the second use to less than about 900 supernovae.
