description: Observation of several very high energy (VHE) flaring events of the BL Lac object VER J0521+211 were reported by the VERITAS and MAGIC collaborations between 2009 and 2014. The redshift of this source is uncertain and several analysis have derived different limits for it. In the framework of the photohadronic model, and using three different extragalactic background light (EBL) models, we analyze seven independent VHE spectra of VER J0521+211 and determine the limiting values on its redshift. It is observed that the photohadronic scenario provides excellent fits to the reported observations. It is further observed that the photohadronic scenario, along with the EBL model of Dominguez et al., puts the most restrictive limits on the redshift z of VER J0521+211: 0.29 <= z <= 0.31 from the confidence level (CL) intervals at 2 sigma, or a more conservative 0.28 <= z <= 0.33, at 3 sigma.

description: The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Wireless Roadside Inspection (WRI) Program is demonstrating the feasibility and value of electronically assessing truck and motorcoach driver and vehicle safety. Electronic assessments (or WRIs) can occur at least 25 times more often than physical roadside inspections. Pilot tests were conducted to prototype, test, and demonstrate the feasibility and benefits of electronically collecting safety data messages (SDMs) from in-service commercial vehicles and performing WRIs using three different communication systems. This report addresses the results of these pilot tests.

description: We study the statistics of Hamiltonian cycles on various families of bicolored random planar maps (with the spherical topology). These families fall into two groups corresponding to two distinct universality classes with respective central charges $c=-1$ and $c=-2$. The first group includes generic $p$-regular maps with vertices of fixed valency $p\geq 3$, whereas the second group comprises maps with vertices of mixed valencies, and the so-called rigid case of $2q$-regular maps ($q\geq 2$) for which, at each vertex, the unvisited edges are equally distributed on both sides of the cycle. We predict for each class its universal configuration exponent $γ$, as well as a new universal critical exponent $ν$ characterizing the number of long-distance contacts along the Hamiltonian cycle. These exponents are theoretically obtained by using the Knizhnik, Polyakov and Zamolodchikov (KPZ) relations, with the appropriate values of the central charge, applied, in the case of $ν$, to the corresponding critical exponent on regular (hexagonal or square) lattices. These predictions are numerically confirmed by analyzing exact enumeration results for $p$-regular maps with $p=3,4,\ldots,7$, and for maps with mixed valencies $(2,3)$, $(2,4)$ and $(3,4)$.

description: Mismatched data is a challenging problem for automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. One of the most common techniques used to address mismatched data is multi-style training (MTR), a form of data augmentation that attempts to transform the training data to be more representative of the testing data; and to learn robust representations applicable to different conditions. This task can be very challenging if the test conditions are unknown. We explore the impact of different MTR styles on system performance when testing conditions are different from training conditions in the context of deep neural network hidden Markov model (DNN-HMM) ASR systems. A controlled environment is created using the LibriSpeech corpus, where we isolate the effect of different MTR styles on final system performance. We evaluate our findings on a South African call centre dataset that contains noisy, WAV49-encoded audio.

description: A current problem facing fanners is, how much shouls they mechanize their farm perations? Ae the relative price and productivity of factors change farmers usually have to adjust their operations to assure maximum profits. Technological advances often change the relative productiveness and the price of machinery. These changes have caused the progressive farmer to continually review his farm organization and make adjustments in levels of factor use. If he is to produce at maximum profits it is necessary that his machinery investment be in proper adjustment with other resources.

description: In this contribution, we discuss the finite-element discrete variable representation (FE-DVR) of the nonequilibrium Green's function and its implications on the description of strongly inhomogeneous quantum systems. In detail, we show that the complementary features of FEs and the DVR allows for a notably more efficient solution of the two-time Schwinger/Keldysh/Kadanoff-Baym equations compared to a general basis approach. Particularly, the use of the FE-DVR leads to an essential speedup in computing the self-energies. As atomic and molecular examples we consider the He atom and the linear version of H$_3^+$ in one spatial dimension. For these closed-shell models we, in Hartree-Fock and second Born approximation, compute the ground-state properties and compare with the exact findings obtained from the solution of the few-particle time-dependent Schrödinger equation.

description: Aims. We search for transiting circumbinary (CB) planets around eclipsing binaries (EBs). Methods. CB-BLS is a recently-introduced algorithm for the detection of transiting CB planets around EBs.We describe progress in search sensitivity, generality and capability of CB-BLS, and detection tests of CB-BLS on simulated data. We also describe an analytical approach for the determination of CB-BLS detection limits, and a method for the correct detrending of intrinsically-variable stars. Results. We present some blind-tests with simulated planets injected to real CoRoT data. The presented upgrades to CB-BLS allowed it to detect all the blind tests successfully, and these detections were in line with the detection limits analysis. We also correctly detrend bright eclipsing binaries from observations by the TrES planet search, and present some of the first results of applying CB-BLS to multiple real light curves from a wide-field survey. Conclusions. CB-BLS is now mature enough for its application to real data, and the presented processing scheme will serve as the template for our future applications of CB-BLS to data from wide-field surveys such as CoRoT. Being able to put constraints even on non-detection will help to determine the correct frequency of CB planets, contributing to the understanding of planet formation in general. Still, searching for transiting CB planets is still a learning experience, similarly to the state of transiting planets around single stars only a few years ago. The recent rapid progress in this front, coupled with the exquisite quality of space-based photometry, allows to realistically expect that if transiting CB planets exist - then they will soon be found.

title: Nitrogen Effect on Cation Exchange Capacity of Plant Roots
Creators: name: Shoukry, Kamilia Shoukry Mohamed
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1963

description: The relationships that exist between soil and plant are very complicated and have aroused man's curiosity for centuries. Many studies have been done in order to understand and clarify this relation. Among these is the hypothesis that plant roots exhibit cation exchange capacity (CEC) and that this is in some way responsible for differential cation uptake . The CEC of the roots was defined by Helmy (l958a) as the total cations which can be exchanged or replaced from the root surface under a given set of conditions and is usually expressed as milli-equivalents per 100 grams (me/100 g) of dry roots. The CEC hypothesis of cation uptake proposes that the uptake of cations from soil by plants is in some extent controlled by the CEC of the plant roots and the valence of the cations. The CEC may therefore account for the differences between species in taking up different amounts of nutrients from the same soil.

description: A growing body of research on probabilistic programs and causal models has highlighted the need to reason compositionally about model classes that extend directed graphical models. Both probabilistic programs and causal models define a joint probability density over a set of random variables, and exhibit sparse structure that can be used to reason about causation and conditional independence. This work builds on recent work on Markov categories of probabilistic mappings to define a category whose morphisms combine a joint density, factorized over each sample space, with a deterministic mapping from samples to return values. This is a step towards closing the gap between recent category-theoretic descriptions of probability measures, and the operational definitions of factorized densities that are commonly employed in probabilistic programming and causal inference.

description: We consider the question of when an expansion of a topological structure has the property that every open set definable in the expansion is definable in the original structure. This question is related to and inspired by recent work of Dolich, Miller and Steinhorn on the property of having o-minimal open core. We answer the question in a fairly general setting and provide conditions which in practice are often easy to check. We give a further characterisation in the special case of an expansion by a generic predicate.

description: We theoretically model a nuclear-state preparation scheme that increases the coherence time of a two-spin qubit in a double quantum dot. The two-electron system is tuned repeatedly across a singlet-triplet level-anticrossing with alternating slow and rapid sweeps of an external bias voltage. Using a Landau-Zener-Stueckelberg model, we find that in addition to a small nuclear polarization that weakly affects the electron spin coherence, the slow sweeps are only partially adiabatic and lead to a weak nuclear spin measurement and a nuclear-state narrowing which prolongs the electron spin coherence. This resolves some open problems brought up by a recent experiment [D. J. Reilly et al., Science 321, 817 (2008).]. Based on our description of the weak measurement, we simulate a system with up to n=200 nuclear spins per dot. Scaling in n indicates a stronger effect for larger n.

description: Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering (RIXS) spectra of hematite were measured at the Fe L3-edge for heteroepitaxial thin films which were undoped and doped with 1% Ti, Sn or Zn, in the energy loss range in excess of 1 eV to study electronic transitions. The spectra were measured for several momentum transfers (q), conducted at both low temperature (T=14K) and room temperature. While we can not rule out dispersive features possibly owing to propagating excitations, the coarse envelopes of the general spectra did not appreciably change shape with q, implying that the bulk of the observed L-edge RIXS intensity originates from (mostly) non-dispersive ligand field (LF) excitations. Summing the RIXS spectra over q and comparing the results at T=14 K to those at T=300 K, revealed pronounced temperature effects, including an intensity change and energy shift of the 1.4 eV peak, a broadband intensity increase of the 3-4 eV range, and higher energy features. The q-summed spectra and their temperature dependences are virtually identical for nearly all of the samples with different dopants, save for the temperature dependence of the Ti-doped sample's spectrum, which we attribute to being affected by a large number of free charge carriers. Comparing with magnetization measurements for different temperatures and dopings likewise did not show a clear correlation between the RIXS spectra and the magnetic ordering states. To clarify the excited states, we performed spin multiplet calculations which were in excellent agreement with the RIXS spectra over a wide energy range and provide detailed electronic descriptions of the excited states. The implications of these findings to the photoconversion efficiency of hematite photoanodes is discussed.

The Algebraic Weak Factorisation System for Delta Lenses

description: Delta lenses are functors equipped with a suitable choice of lifts, and are used to model bidirectional transformations between systems. In this paper, we construct an algebraic weak factorisation system whose R-algebras are delta lenses. Our approach extends a semi-monad for delta lenses previously introduced by Johnson and Rosebrugh, and generalises to any suitable category equipped with an orthogonal factorisation system and an idempotent comonad. We demonstrate how the framework of an algebraic weak factorisation system provides a natural setting for understanding the lifting operation of a delta lens, and also present an explicit description of the free delta lens on a functor.

description: The phase-coherent frequency division of a stabilized optical reference laser to the microwave domain is made possible by optical frequency combs (OFCs). Fundamentally, OFC-based clockworks rely on the ability to lock one comb tooth to this reference laser, which probes a stable atomic transition. The active feedback process associated with locking the comb tooth to the reference laser introduces complexity, bandwidth, and power requirements that, in the context of chip-scale technologies, complicate the push to fully integrate OFC photonics and electronics for fieldable clock applications. Here, we demonstrate passive, electronics-free synchronization of a microresonator-based dissipative Kerr soliton (DKS) OFC to a reference laser. We show that the Kerr nonlinearity within the same resonator in which the DKS is generated enables phase locking of the DKS to the externally injected reference. We present a theoretical model to explain this Kerr-induced synchronization (KIS), and find that its predictions for the conditions under which synchronization occur closely match experiments based on a chip-integrated, silicon nitride microring resonator. Once synchronized, the reference laser is effectively an OFC tooth, which we show, theoretically and experimentally, enables through its frequency tuning the direct external control of the OFC repetition rate. Finally, we examine the short- and long-term stability of the DKS repetition rate and show that the repetition rate stability is consistent with the frequency division of the expected optical clockwork system.

description: Despite the widespread adoption of computational notebooks, little is known about best practices for their usage in collaborative contexts. In this paper, we fill this gap by eliciting a catalog of best practices for collaborative data science with computational notebooks. With this aim, we first look for best practices through a multivocal literature review. Then, we conduct interviews with professional data scientists to assess their awareness of these best practices. Finally, we assess the adoption of best practices through the analysis of 1,380 Jupyter notebooks retrieved from the Kaggle platform. Findings reveal that experts are mostly aware of the best practices and tend to adopt them in their daily work. Nonetheless, they do not consistently follow all the recommendations as, depending on specific contexts, some are deemed unfeasible or counterproductive due to the lack of proper tool support. As such, we envision the design of notebook solutions that allow data scientists not to have to prioritize exploration and rapid prototyping over writing code of quality.
Unifilar Machines and the Adjoint Structure of Bayesian Filtering

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)

description: We elucidate the mathematical structure of Bayesian filtering, and Bayesian inference more broadly, by applying recent work on category theoretical probability, specifically the concept of a strongly representable Markov category. We show that filtering, along with related concepts such as conjugate priors, arise from an adjunction: the process of taking a hidden Markov process is right adjoint to a forgetful functor. This has an interesting consequence. In practice, filtering is usually implemented using parametrised families of distributions. The Kalman filter is a particularly important example, which uses Gaussians. Rather than calculating a new posterior each time, the implementation only needs to udpate the parameters. This structure arises naturally from our adjunction; the correctness of such a model is witnessed by a map from the model into the system being modelled. Conjugate priors arise from this construction as a special case.
 In showing this we define a notion of unifilar machine, which has its origins in the literature on epsilon-machines. Unifilar machines are useful as models of the "observable behaviour" of stochastic systems; we show additionally that in the Kleisli category of the distribution monad there is a terminal unifilar machine, and its elements are controlled stochastic processes, mapping sequences of the input alphabet probabilistically to sequences of the output alphabet.

description: We have carried out a search for galaxies at z ~ 7-10 in ~14.4 sq. arcmin of new NICMOS parallel imaging taken in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS, 5.9 sq. arcmin), the Cosmic Origins Survey (COSMOS, 7.2 sq. arcmin), and SSA22 (1.3 sq. arcmin). These images reach 5 sigma sensitivities of J110 = 26.0-27.5 (AB), and combined they increase the amount of deep near-infrared data by more than 60% in fields where the investment in deep optical data has already been made. We find no z>7 candidates in our survey area, consistent with the Bouwens et al. (2008) measurements at z~7 and 9 (over 23 sq. arcmin), which predict 0.7 galaxies at z~7 and <0.03 galaxies at z~9. We estimate that 10-20% of z>7 galaxies are missed by this survey, due to incompleteness from foreground contamination by faint sources. For the case of luminosity evolution, assuming a Schecter parameterization with a typical phi* = 10^-3 Mpc^-3, we find M* > -20.0 for z~7 and M* > -20.7 for z~9 (68% confidence). This suggests that the downward luminosity evolution of LBGs continues to z~7, although our result is marginally consistent with the z~6 LF of Bouwens et al.(2006, 2007). In addition we present newly-acquired deep MMT/Megacam imaging of the z~9 candidate JD2325+1433, first presented in Henry et al. (2008). The resulting weak but significant detection at i' indicates that this galaxy is most likely an interloper at z~2.7.

Optics for Premonoidal Categories

description: We further the theory of optics or "circuits-with-holes" to encompass premonoidal categories: monoidal categories without the interchange law. Every premonoidal category gives rise to an effectful category (i.e. a generalised Freyd-category) given by the embedding of the monoidal subcategory of central morphisms. We introduce "pro-effectful" categories and show that optics for premonoidal categories exhibit this structure. Pro-effectful categories are the non-representable versions of effectful categories, akin to the generalisation of monoidal to promonoidal categories. We extend a classical result of Day to this setting, showing an equivalence between pro-effectful structures on a category and effectful structures on its free tight cocompletion. We also demonstrate that pro-effectful categories are equivalent to prostrong promonads.

description: The goal of this technical report is to analyse challenges and requirements related to security in the context of an evolving European HPC ecosystem, to provide selected strategies on how to address them, and to come up with a set of forward-looking recommendations. A key assumption made in this technical report is that we are in a transition period from a setup, where HPC resources are operated in a rather independent manner, to centres providing a variety of e-infrastructure services, which are not exclusively based on HPC resources and are increasingly part of federated infrastructures.

description: This Analysis Brief documents the methodology and results from the Compliance Review Effectiveness Model (CREM) for carriers receiving CRs in fiscal year (FY) 2009. The model measures the effectiveness of the compliance review (CR) program, one of the key safety programs of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). This work addresses the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993, which obligates Federal agencies to measure the results of their programs as part of the budget cycle process. The benefits of the CR program are calculated in terms of crashes avoided, lives saved, and injuries avoided.
Monoidal Structures on Generalized Polynomial Categories

description: Recently, there has been renewed interest in the theory and applications of de Paiva's dialectica categories and their relationship to the category of polynomial functors. Both fall under the theory of generalized polynomial categories, which are free coproduct completions of free product completions of (monoidal) categories. Here we extend known monoidal structures on polynomial functors and dialectica categories to generalized polynomial categories. We highlight one such monoidal structure, an asymmetric operation generalizing composition of polynomial functors, and show that comonoids with respect to this structure correspond to categories enriched over a related free coproduct completion. Applications include modeling compositional bounds on dynamical systems.

Negligible Effects of Baryons on the Angular Momentum Scaling Relations of Galactic Dark Matter Halos

description: In cosmological simulations without baryons, the relation between the specific angular momentum $j_{\rm h}$ and mass $M_{\rm h}$ of galactic dark matter halos has the well-established form $j_{\rm h} \propto M_{\rm h}^{2/3}$. This is invariably adopted as the starting point in efforts to understand the analogous relation between the specific angular momentum $j_{\ast}$ and mass $M_{\ast}$ of the stellar parts of galaxies, which are often re-expressed relative to the corresponding halo properties through the retention fractions $f_j = j_{\ast} / j_{\rm h}$ and $f_M = M_{\ast} / M_{\rm h}$. An important caveat here is that the adopted $j_{\rm h} \propto M_{\rm h}^{2/3}$ relation could, in principle, be modified by the gravitational back-reaction of baryons on dark matter (DM). We have tested for this possibility by comparing the $j_{\rm h}$-$M_{\rm h}$ relations in the IllustrisTNG100 and TNG50 simulations that include baryons (full-physics runs) with their counterparts that do not (DM-only runs). In all cases, we find scaling relations of the form $j_{\rm h} \propto M_{\rm h}^α$, with $α\approx 2/3$ over the ranges of mass and redshift studied here: $M_{\rm h} \geq 10^{10} \, M_{\odot}$ and $0 \leq z \leq 2$. The values of $α$ are virtually identical in the full-physics and DM-only runs at the same redshift. The only detectable effect of baryons on the $j_{\rm h}$-$M_{\rm h}$ relation is a slightly higher normalization, by 12%-15% at $z=0$ and by 5% at $z=2$. This implies that existing estimates of $f_j$ based on DM-only simulations should be adjusted downward by similar amounts. Finally, we discuss briefly some implications of this work for studies of galaxy formation.

Mildly sequestered supergravity models and their realization in string theory

Year: 2010

description: We elaborate on the idea that five-dimensional models where sequestering is spoiled due to contact interactions induced by vector multiplets may still be mildly sequestered if a global version of the gauge symmetry associated to the latter survives in the hidden sector. Interestingly, it has been argued that although in such a situation non-trivial current-current contact interactions are induced by the heavy vector modes, these do not induce soft scalar masses, as a consequence of the global symmetry. We perform a detailed study of how this hybrid mechanism can be implemented in supergravity and string models, focusing on the prototypical case of heterotic M-theory orbifolds. We emphasize that in general the mechanism works only up to subleading effects suppressed by the ratio between the global symmetry breaking scale in the hidden sector and the vector mass scale or the Planck scale. We also argue that this mild sequestering mechanism allows to rehabilitate the scenario of dilaton domination of supersymmetry breaking, which is incompatible with dilaton stabilization in its original version, by exploiting the fact that hidden brane fields do contribute to the cosmological constant but not to soft terms, thanks to the global symmetry.

description: There are many advantages and some disadvantages associated with the fall application of nitrogen fertilizers. The advantages of applying fertilizer at this time appear very convincing. It is easier to get onto the land in the fall. During the fall, famers usually have more time to apply fertilizer than they do in the spring. In the fall the fertilizer companies offer better service. This is because the fall application of fertilizer lengthens out their season, thus making it possible for them to handle more fertilizer.

Fluctuation-dissipation relation in a non-equilibrium quantum fluid

description: There is no simple fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) for nonequilibrium systems. We show that for a fluid in a nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) characterized by a constant temperature gradient there is a generalized FDT that relates commutator correlation functions to the bilinear response of products of observables. This allows for experimental probes of the long-range correlations in such a system, quantum or classical, via response experiments. We also show that the correlations are not tied to thermal fluctuations but are intrinsic to the NESS and reflect a generalized rigidity.
