description: The Mott polarimetry for T -Violation (MTV) experiment tests time-reversal symmetry in polarized nuclear beta decay by measuring an electron's transverse polarization as a form of angular asymmetry in Mott scattering using a thin metal foil. A Mott scattering analyzer system developed using a tracking detector to measure scattering angles offers better event selectivity than conventional counter experiments. In this paper, we describe a pilot experiment conducted at KEK-TRIAC using a prototype system with a polarized 8Li beam. The experiment confirmed the sound performance of our Mott analyzer system to measure T-violating triple correlation (R correlation), and therefore recommends its use in higher-precision experiments at the TRIUMF-ISAC.

description: The optimal contract design for cloud computing service with resource guarantee under the consideration of resource redundancy and network externality is studied in this research. A model in which a service provider determines joint pricing and resource allocation decisions is constructed by proposing two types of contracts with different service-level agreements (SLAs). The SLA of each contract describes the price and associated penalty if the provider cannot provide the resource requested by the customers. Optimal pricing and resource allocation decisions as well as the equilibrium contracts of the service provider are analyzed based on the dynamics of the model characteristics. We found that optimal contract design is sensitive to both service levels and customers’ beliefs of compensation ratio when the requested resource is unfulfilled. Furthermore, service providers should evaluate the trade-off between benefit of price discrimination and effect of network externality when determining the optimal contract design.
Intermittent Granular Dynamics at a Seismogenic Plate Boundary

description: Earthquakes at seismogenic plate boundaries are a response to the differential motions of tectonic blocks embedded within a geometrically complex network of branching and coalescing faults. Elastic strain is accumulated at a slow strain rate of the order of $10^{-15}$ s$^{-1}$, and released intermittently at intervals $>100$ years, in the form of rapid (seconds to minutes) coseismic ruptures. The development of macroscopic models of quasi-static planar tectonic dynamics at these plate boundaries has remained challenging due to uncertainty with regard to the spatial and kinematic complexity of fault system behaviors. In particular, the characteristic length scale of kinematically distinct tectonic structures is poorly constrained. Here we analyze fluctuations in GPS recordings of interseismic velocities from the southern California plate boundary, identifying heavy-tailed scaling behavior. This suggests that the plate boundary can be understood as a densely packed granular medium near the jamming transition, with a characteristic length scale of $91 \pm 20$ km. In this picture fault and block systems may rapidly rearrange the distribution of forces within them, driving a mixture of transient and intermittent fault slip behaviors over tectonic time scales.

description: Finite depth quantum circuits provide an equivalence relation between gapped phases. Moreover, there can be nontrivial domain walls either within the same gapped phase or between different gapped phases, whose equivalence relations are given by finite depth quantum circuits in one lower dimension. In this paper, we use such unitary equivalence relations to study the fusion of one-dimensional gapped phases. In particular, we use finite depth circuits to fuse two gapped phases, local unitaries to fuse two domain walls, and a combination of both to fuse gapped phases with domain walls. This provides a concrete illustration of some simple aspects of the `higher-category' structure of gapped defects in a higher-dimensional trivial gapped bulk state.

description: The Simple Inclusion Process (SIP) interpolates between two well-known lattice gas models: the independent random walkers and the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti model. Here we study large deviations of nonstationary mass transfer in the SIP at long times in one dimension. We suppose that $N\gg 1$ particles start from a single lattice site at the origin, and we are interested in the probability $\mathcal{P}(M,N,T)$ of observing $M$ particles, $0\leq M\leq N$, to the right of the origin at a specified time $T\gg 1$. At large times, the corresponding probability distribution has a large-deviation behavior, $-\ln \mathcal{P}(M,N,T) \simeq \sqrt{T} s(M/N,N/\sqrt{T})$. We determine the rate function $s$ exactly by uncovering and utilizing complete integrability, by the inverse scattering method, of the underlying equations of the macroscopic fluctuation theory. We also analyze different asymptotic limits of the rate function $s$.

description: In the present article we study the process of particle creation for Elko spinor fields as a consequence of expansion of the universe. We study the effect driven by a expanding background that is asymptotically minkowskian in the past and future. The differential equation that governs the time mode function is obtained for the conformal coupling case and, although its solution is non-analytic, within an approximation that preserves the characteristics of the terms that break the analyticity, analytic solutions are obtained. Thus, by means of the Bogolyubov transformations technique, the number density of particles created is obtained, which can be compared to exact solutions already present in literature for scalar and Dirac particles. The spectrum of created particles is obtained and it was found that it is a generalization of the scalar field case, which converges to the scalar field one when the specific terms concerning the Elko field are dropped out. We also found that lighter Elko particles are created in larger quantities than Dirac fermionic particles. By considering the Elko particles as candidate to dark matter in the universe, such result shows that there are more light dark matter (Elko) particles created by gravitational effects in the universe than baryonic (fermionic) matter, in agreement to standard model.

Cambodian women & violence: considering NGO interventions in cultural context

description: The issue of violence against women is at the forefront of feminist and development debate in contemporary Cambodia. This, however, does not mean that gendered violence is always considered and handled in ways that are suitable and effective. Violence is a part of the social order in Cambodia at many levels and it is not possible to isolate it easily in terms of programmatic interventions. Cultural and historical meanings of social and gendered violence must be considered and incorporated into the ways that NGOs and development actors seek to address and redress violence against women in Cambodia. This thesis examines NGO considerations of, and interventions on, three manifestations of gendered violence that NGOs and Cambodians identify as the most critical and pernicious - domestic violence, trafficking in women and rape. Based on my fieldwork in Cambodia I consider a range of NGO initiatives aimed at reducing violence against women and the ways in which they fit (or fail to fit) with the lived experience of gendered violence in Cambodia. While the state of play between NGOs activities and the reality of gendered violence is not altogether positive, there are a number of interventions which signal valuable starting points for future interventions. In considering and incorporating the complexity of Cambodian social order and structures, it becomes increasingly possible to identify and promote points of entry for interventions and more finely tuned and firmly grounded NGO initiatives might increase their impact on violence against women.

description: Within the settler colonial archives there is a paucity of information on wāhine Māori however, newspapers and settler colonial cultural institutions provide evidence of wāhine Māori travelling to, working and living on this continent colonially referred to Australia since before 1810. Colonial archives record tāne Māori on this continent from 1793 in abundance – as traders, diplomats, royalty and visitors. Archives are a form of collective community memory that store a range of information and artefacts that are considered keep worthy by society. My research is interested in wāhine Māori who visited or migrated to this continent during the period between 1790s and 1970s. This thesis is also concerned with Māori relationality and in particular this thesis explores whether this was extended to Aboriginal peoples or established only with colonisers. Using the concepts of mātauranga Māori and mana wāhine Māori, I interrogate the colonial archives to ascertain if wāhine Māori travelled to the colony and in what capacity they travelled. I ask no heā koe? Who are you? and kei hea koe? Where are you?

description: The stabilization of lasers to absolute frequency references is a fundamental requirement in several areas of atomic, molecular and optical physics. A range of techniques are available to produce a suitable reference onto which one can 'lock' the laser, many of which depend on the specific internal structure of the reference or are sensitive to laser intensity noise. We present a novel method using the frequency modulation of an acousto-optic modulator's carrier (drive) signal to generate two spatially separated beams, with a frequency difference of only a few MHz. These beams are used to probe a narrow absorption feature and the difference in their detected signals leads to a dispersion-like feature suitable for wavelength stabilization of a diode laser. This simple and versatile method only requires a narrow absorption line and is therefore suitable for both atomic and cavity based stabilization schemes. To demonstrate the suitability of this method we lock an external cavity diode laser near the $^{85}\mathrm{Rb}\,5S_{1/2}\rightarrow5P_{3/2}, F=3\rightarrow F^{\prime}=4$ using sub-Doppler pump probe spectroscopy and also demonstrate excellent agreement between the measured signal and a theoretical model.

description: This paper revisits the vendor-buyer inventory problem considering random yield and trade credit. The problem deals with a single vendor, single buyer setting with deterministic demand and stochastic supply due to the random nature of yield associated with the vendor’s production process. Since a trade credit agreement is in place, the buyer is not required to make a payment to the vendor at the time of delivery of the order. The full payment must be delivered at the end of the trade credit period dictated by the agreement. The problem of interest was originally studied by Chen and Kang (Int J Prod Econ 123(1):52–61, 2010) who treat the delivery frequency, i.e., buyer’s order cycle length, as a decision variable. The current paper demonstrates that the buyer’s order cycle length is in fact a random variable due to the random nature of yield, and there is no guarantee that the trade credit period will be longer or shorter than the buyer’s order cycle length. As a result, the modeling and solution approach presented by Chen and Kang (2010) is flawed. The approach is remedied here by formal application of renewal theory. The exact cost expressions for the vendor-buyer system are redeveloped rigorously. The newly developed expressions are utilized to investigate the optimal decisions under decentralized control. Furthermore, the results are generalized to consider a general distribution of random yield associated with the vendor’s production process. Operational and financial consequences these new and more general results are demonstrated via numerical examples.

description: Borehole leakage is a common and complex issue. Understanding the fluid flow characteristics of a cemented area inside a borehole is crucial to monitor and quantify the wellbore integrity as well as to find solutions to minimise existing leakages. In order to improve our understanding of the flow behaviour of cemented boreholes, we investigated experimental data of a large-scale borehole leakage tests by means of numerical modelling using three different conceptual models. The experiment was performed with an autoclave system consisting of two vessels bridged by a cement-filled casing. After a partial bleed-off at the well-head, a sustained casing pressure was observed due to fluid flow through the cementsteel composite. The aim of our simulations is to investigate and quantify the permeability of the cement-steel composite. From our model results, we conclude that the flow occurred along a preferential flow path at the cement-steel interface. Thus, the inner part of the cement core was impermeable during the duration of the experiment. The preferential flow path can be described as a highly permeable and highly porous area with an aperture of about 5 mu m and a permeability of 3 . 10(-12) m(2) (3 Darcy). It follows that the fluid flow characteristics of a cemented area inside a borehole cannot be described using one permeability value for the entire cement-steel composite. Furthermore, it can be concluded that the quality of the cement and the filling process regarding the cement-steel interface is crucial to minimize possible well leakages.

Drivers and challenges of implementing integrated water-cycle management strategy in regional NSW

description: Regional water utilities in the state of New South Wales (NSW) are recommended to prepare a 30-year Integrated Water Cycle Management (IWCM) strategy. The aim of IWCM strategies is to ensure that the regional town water supply, sewage, stormwater and related infrastructure, is safe, secure, efficient and sustainable, fit for purpose and meets with community needs at fair price. But, barriers to implementation of IWCM strategies are fraught with many challenges including multiple regulatory obligations, differing community expectations, shifting political priorities and influences and having to navigate institutional silos. This study reveals an insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by and for rural-regional water utility's strategic planning and its implementation. The method used is stakeholder engagement of the bottom-up perspectives of strategic and operational water managers and top-down perspectives of state level water managers and regulators. The vertical and horizontal approach is designed to facilitate the needed step change in IWCM to future proofing water services of regional towns in NSW. The findings from on-grounds, bottom-up barriers in IWCM strategy development is that: process is very expensive and resource intensive; used as procedural document to obtain funds; multiple and prescriptive regulations leading to prolonged approvals processing times; resource limitations and internal organisational silos. The top-down solutions as suggested by the strategic water managers and regulators are: acknowledgement of governance as a major reform area; identified need to streamline the IWCM processes and procedure, but that the options analysis requirement - needs to consider all available options; taking ownership of the strategy development process (reducing reliance on consultants), legislations are enabling the pieces in the puzzle of achieving water security; These challenging, complex and interwoven settings, if not overcome, may result in towns being without a reliable supply of water as has, and is, presently occurring across the rural-regional NSW -- abstract.

description: In the last decades, the early pre main sequence stellar rotational evolution picture has been constrained by studies targeting different young regions at a variety of ages. Observational studies suggest a mass-rotation dependence, and for some mass ranges a connection between rotation and the presence of a circumstellar disk. Not still fully explored, though, is the role of environmental conditions on the rotational regulation. We investigate the rotational properties of candidate members of the young massive association Cygnus OB2. The Stetson variability index, Lomb-Scargle periodogram, Saunders statistics, string/rope length method, and visual verification of folded light curves were applied to select 1224 periodic variable stars. Completeness and contamination of the periodic sample was derived from Monte Carlo simulations, out of which 894 periods were considered reliable. Our study was considered reasonably complete for periods from 2 to 30 days. The general rotational scenario seen in other young regions is confirmed by Cygnus OB2 period distributions, with disked stars rotating on average slower than non-disked stars. A mass-rotation dependence was also verified, but as in NGC 6530, lower mass stars are rotating on average slower than higher mass stars, with an excess of slow rotators among the lower mass population. The effect of the environment on the rotational properties of the association was investigated by re-analysing the results while taking into account the incident UV radiation arising from O stars in the association. Results compatible with the disk-locking scenario were verified for stars with low UV incidence, but no statistical significant relation between rotation and disk presence was verified for stars with high UV incidence suggesting that massive stars can have an important role on regulating the rotation of nearby low mass stars.

Subjects: Quantum Mechanics

description: A theory of electro-cordic guidewaves is developed to supplement the standard acausal statistical laws of quantum mechanics and account for the growth of precision interference patterns from apparently random quantum events. Every effort is made to reveal the physical reality of the guidewaves which organise photons or electrons into predictable states. Einstein’s equations of general relativity have also been applied to hydrogen, to yield energy levels identical to those of Dirac’s theory. A companion paper will cover other applications of electro-cordic guidewaves in quantum theory to interference, tunnelling, non-local phenomena and superconductivity.

description: A $k$-ranking of a directed graph $G$ is a labeling of the vertex set of $G$ with $k$ positive integers such that every directed path connecting two vertices with the same label includes a vertex with a larger label in between. The rank number of $G$ is defined to be the smallest $k$ such that $G$ has a $k$-ranking. We find the largest possible directed graph that can be obtained from a directed path or a directed cycle by attaching new edges to the vertices such that the new graphs have the same rank number as the original graphs. The adjacency matrix of the resulting graph is embedded in the Sierpiński triangle. We present a connection between the number of edges that can be added to paths and the Stirling numbers of the second kind. These results are generalized to create directed graphs which are unions of directed paths and directed cycles that maintain the rank number of a base graph of a directed path or a directed cycle.

description: Intrinsic brain activity is characterized by highly structured co-activations between different regions, whose origin is still under debate. In this paper, we address the question whether it is possible to unveil how the underlying anatomical connectivity shape the brain's spontaneous correlation structure. We start from the assumption that in order for two nodes to exhibit large covariation, they must be exposed to similar input patterns from the entire network. We then acknowledge that information rarely spreads only along an unique route, but rather travels along all possible paths. In real networks the strength of local perturbations tends to decay as they propagate away from the sources, leading to a progressive attenuation of the original information content and, thus, of their influence. We use these notions to derive a novel analytical measure, $\mathcal{T}$ , which quantifies the similarity of the whole-network input patterns arriving at any two nodes only due to the underlying topology, in what is a generalization of the matching index. We show that this measure of topological similarity can indeed be used to predict the contribution of network topology to the expected correlation structure, thus unveiling the mechanism behind the tight but elusive relationship between structure and function in complex networks. Finally, we use this measure to investigate brain connectivity, showing that information about the topology defined by the complex fabric of brain axonal pathways specifies to a large extent the time-average functional connectivity observed at rest.

description: The physical nature of proposed electro-cordic guidewaves has been demonstrated by applying the theory to relativistic potential wells and a simple harmonic system. Interference observed in Young's slits and the Michelson interferometer has also been explained as due to active guidewave fields controlling photons. Entanglement is interpreted in terms of real coupling by interlinked guidewaves between particles or photons; so wavefunction collapse occurs when this physical link is broken. Superconductivity requires real material binding for electron-pair creation and correlation.

description: We introduce a robust control architecture for the whole-body motion control of torque controlled robots with arms and legs. The method is based on the robust control of contact forces in order to track a planned Center of Mass trajectory. Its appeal lies in the ability to guarantee robust stability and performance despite rigid body model mismatch, actuator dynamics, delays, contact surface stiffness, and unobserved ground profiles. Furthermore, we introduce a task space decomposition approach which removes the coupling effects between contact force controller and the other non-contact controllers. Finally, we verify our control performance on a quadruped robot and compare its performance to a standard inverse dynamics approach on hardware.

A simple monotonic law has been found, which describes how the electron resists compression, without transmutation. Variation of the strong coupling constant αs has also been analysed in terms of equivalent work done by the gluon field within a proton’s component parts.

Analysis of the magnetic moment allows substructure modelling, incorporating 2 grades of triplets. Creation of these component parts is described in terms of action-integrals. The gluon field energy holding the triplets together is related to total energy. Uniqueness of electromagnetic charge is attributed to a governing action principle. Finally, a neutron model has been proposed, consisting of a proton core orbited by a heavy-electron.

description: To insight the relationships between the self-organizing structures of cells, such as the cell clusters, and the properties of biotissues is helpful in revealing the function and designing biomaterial. Traditional random foam model neglects several important details of the frameworks of cell clusters, in this study we use a more complete model, cell adhesion model, to investigate the mechanical and morphological properties of the two-dimensional (2D) dry foams composed by cells. Supposing these structures are formed due to adhesion between cells, the equilibrium formations result from the minimum of the free energy. The equilibrium shape equations for high symmetrical structures without the volume constraint are derived, and the analytical results of the corresponding mechanical parameters, such as the Young's modulus, bulk modulus and failure strength, are obtained. Numerical simulation method is applied to study the complex shapes with the volume constraint and several stable multicellular structures are obtained. Symmetry-breaking due to the volume change is founded and typical periodic shapes and the corresponding phase transformations are explored. Our study provides a potential method to connect the microstructure with the macro-mechanical parameters of biotissues. The results also are helpful to understand the physical mechanism of how the structures of biotissues are formed.

description: Obfuscation techniques are a general category of software protections widely adopted to prevent malicious tampering of the code by making applications more difficult to understand and thus harder to modify. Obfuscation techniques are divided in code and data obfuscation, depending on the protected asset. While preliminary empirical studies have been conducted to determine the impact of code obfuscation, our work aims at assessing the effectiveness and efficiency in preventing attacks of a specific data obfuscation technique - VarMerge. We conducted an experiment with student participants performing two attack tasks on clear and obfuscated versions of two applications written in C. The experiment showed a significant effect of data obfuscation on both the time required to complete and the successful attack efficiency. An application with VarMerge reduces by six times the number of successful attacks per unit of time. This outcome provides a practical clue that can be used when applying software protections based on data obfuscation.

Pedro da Fonseca - A Critical Biography
Creators: name: Carvalho, Mário Santiago De
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: It is still impossible to write a critical biography of Pedro da Fonseca (1527-1599). For this article, I could not always yet check original documentation and for that reason, I have to rely mostly upon secondary bibliography. Unfortunately, historians are not at all consistent among them and sometimes they even take different stances when interpreting the documents. Nevertheless, this is the first comprehensive and reasoned Fonseca’s biography. The reader must cautiously consider the divisions proposed below. We will expect to periodically rewrite Fonseca’s biography as new documentation is presented or discovered.

description: We introduce a novel Elliptical Parcel-In-Cell (EPIC) method for the simulation of fluid flows. The Lagrangian parcels are represented by ellipsoids which deform, rotate and move in the flow field. The splitting of excessively elongated parcels and the merging of very small parcels with their nearest other parcel gives rise to a natural mixing mechanism. The parcel merging algorithm involves analysing a graph of nearest neighbouring parcels, which can be on different MPI processes. The communication in this algorithm was implemented using one-sided (RMA) communication. The EPIC method has proven to outperform non-deformable PIC methods and comparable Eulerian models for buoyancy-driven turbulent fluid flows in terms of effective small-scale resolution.

description: The process that leads to the formation of the bright star forming sites observed along prominent spiral arms remains elusive. We present results of a multi-wavelength study of a spiral arm segment in the nearby grand-design spiral galaxy M51 that belongs to a spiral density wave and exhibits nine gas spurs. The combined observations of the(ionized, atomic, molecular, dusty) interstellar medium (ISM) with star formation tracers (HII regions, young <10Myr stellar clusters) suggest (1) no variation in giant molecular cloud (GMC) properties between arm and gas spurs, (2) gas spurs and extinction feathers arising from the same structure with a close spatial relation between gas spurs and ongoing/recent star formation (despite higher gas surface densities in the spiral arm), (3) no trend in star formation age either along the arm or along a spur, (4) evidence for strong star formation feedback in gas spurs: (5) tentative evidence for star formation triggered by stellar feedback for one spur, and (6) GMC associations (GMAs) being no special entities but the result of blending of gas arm/spur cross-sections in lower resolution observations. We conclude that there is no evidence for a coherent star formation onset mechanism that can be solely associated to the presence of the spiral density wave. This suggests that other (more localized) mechanisms are important to delay star formation such that it occurs in spurs. The evidence of star formation proceeding over several million years within individual spurs implies that the mechanism that leads to star formation acts or is sustained over a longer time-scale.

Excitonic structure and pumping power dependent emission blue-shift of type-II quantum dots

description: In this work we study theoretically and experimentally the multi-particle structure of the so-called type-II quantum dots with spatially separated electrons and holes. Our calculations based on customarily developed full configuration interaction approach reveal that exciton complexes containing holes interacting with two or more electrons exhibit fairly large antibinding energies. This effect is found to be the hallmark of the type-II confinement. In addition, an approximate self-consistent solution of the multi-exciton problem allows us to explain two pronounced phenomena: the blue-shift of the emission with pumping and the large inhomogenous spectral broadening, both of those eluding explanation so far. The results are confirmed by detailed intensity and polarization resolved photoluminescence measurements on a number of type-II samples.

description: We present ALMA Cycle~2 observations at $0.5^{\prime\prime}$ resolution of TW Hya of CS $J=5-4$ emission. The radial profile of the integrated line emission displays oscillatory features outwards of $1.5^{\prime\prime}$ ($\approx 90$ au). A dip-like feature at $1.6^{\prime\prime}$ is coincident in location, depth and width with features observed in dust scattered light at near-infrared wavelengths. Using a thermochemical model indicative of TW Hya, gas-grain chemical modelling and non-LTE radiative transfer, we demonstrate that such a feature can be reproduced with a surface density depression, consistent with the modelling performed for scattered light observations of TW Hya. We further demonstrate that a gap in the dust distribution and dust opacity only cannot reproduce the observed CS feature. The outer enhancement at $3.1^{\prime\prime}$ is identified as a region of intensified desorption due to enhanced penetration of the interstellar FUV radiation at the exponential edge of the disk surface density, which intensifies the photochemical processing of gas and ices.

description: The Spin Asymmetries of the Nucleon Experiment investigated the spin structure of the proton via inclusive electron scattering at the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility at Jefferson Laboratory in Newport News, VA. A double--polarization measurement of polarized asymmetries was performed using the University of Virginia solid polarized ammonia target with target polarization aligned longitudinal and near transverse to the electron beam, allowing the extraction of the spin asymmetries $A_1$ and $A_2$, and spin structure functions $g_1$ and $g_2$. Polarized electrons of energies of 4.7 and 5.9 GeV were scattered to be viewed by a novel, non-magnetic array of detectors observing a four-momentum transfer range of 2 to 6 GeV$^2$. This document addresses the extraction of the spin asymmetries and spin structure functions, with a focus on spin structure function $g_2$, which we have measured as a function of $x$ and $W$ in four $Q^2$ bins.
