Ab initio study of nontrivial topological phases in corundum structured $($M$_2$O$_3)/($Al$_2$O$_3)_5$ multilayers

description: \textit{Ab initio} calculations have been performed on hexagonal layers of M$_2$O$_3$ (M being several transition metals of the $5d$ series) sandwiched by a band insulator such as Al$_2$O$_3$ that provides the honeycomb lattice where the $5d$ electrons reside. This corundum-structure-based superlattice is the most obvious way to design a honeycomb lattice with transition metal cations avoiding the use of largely polar surfaces. We obtain that this system supports the presence of Dirac cones at the Fermi level that open up with the introduction of spin-orbit coupling at various fillings of the $5d$ band. The DFT calculations performed in this work show that the $5d^5$ situation is always a trivial insulator, whereas the $5d^8$ filling presents topological insulating configurations which evolve into a trivial state with increasing tensile strain or on-site Coulomb potential U. However, LDA+U calculations show a stable antiferromagnetic solution for the $5d^8$ case at every U value, which would break time reversal symmetry and could affect the topological properties of the system. We also discuss the similarities with the buckled honeycomb lattice obtained using perovskite (111) bilayers previously studied in literature, in particular for the $5d^5$ and $5d^8$ configurations. This work provides some clues on the stability of topological phases using metal oxides in general.

description: The complex interdigitated phases have greatly frustrated attempts to document the basic features of the superconductivity in the alkali metal intercalated iron chalcogenides. Here, using elastic neutron scattering, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and resistivity measurements, we elucidate the relations of these phases in Rb$_{1-δ}$Fe$_y$Se$_{2-z}$S$_z$. We find: i) the iron content is crucial in stabilizing the stripe antiferromagnetic (AF) phase with rhombic iron vacancy order ($y\approx1.5$), the block AF phase with $\sqrt{5}\times \sqrt{5}$ iron vacancy order ($y\approx1.6$), and the iron vacancy-free phase ($y\approx2$); ii) the superconducting phase ($z=0$) evolves into a metallic phase ($z>1.5$) with sulfur substitution due to the progressive decrease of the electronic correlation strength. Both the stripe AF phase and the block AF phase are Mott insulators. Our data suggest that there are miscibility gaps between these three phases. The existence of the miscibility gaps in the iron content is the key to understanding the relationship between these complicated phases.

description: Among people at genetic risk of schizophrenia, those who use cannabis show smaller thalamic and hippocampal volumes. We evaluated this relationship in people at clinical high risk (CHR) of psychosis. The Alcohol and Drug Use Scale was used to identify 132 CHR cannabis users, the majority of whom were non-dependent cannabis users, 387 CHR non-users, and 204 healthy control non-users, and all participants completed magnetic resonance imaging scans. Volumes of the thalamus, hippocampus and amygdala were extracted with FreeSurfer, and compared across groups. Comparing all CHR participants with healthy control participants revealed no significant differences in volumes of any ROI. However, when comparing CHR users to CHR non-users, a significant ROI × Cannabis group effect emerged: CHR users showed significantly smaller amygdala compared to CHR non-users. However, when limiting analysis to CHR subjects who reported using alcohol at a ‘use without impairment’ severity level, the amygdala effect was non-significant; rather, smaller hippocampal volumes were seen in CHR cannabis users compared to non-users. Controlling statistically for effects of alcohol and tobacco use rendered all results non-significant. These results highlight the importance of controlling for residual confounding effects of other substance use when examining the relationship between cannabis use and neural structure.

description: The Neutron Monitor database nmdb.eu provides easy access to real-time data from Neutron Monitors around the world since 2008. Data is ingested into the MySQL/Mariadb database by the individual station operators
 and can be retrieved by everyone via the NEST interface. Limited resources and frequent hacking attempts required to restrict direct access to the database as well as the amount of data that can be retrieved in a single connection to NEST (we do NOT want users to download the whole database at the highest resolution as this live database is continuously updated). As the interest in real-time data has grown, we are also providing the latest hour of high-resolution data from all stations in a simple text file that can be retrieved from our website with curl or wget (rt.nmdb.eu). We also provide python examples and functions to read in the realtime data, or retrieve datasets via the NEST interface directly into pandas dataframes. Other NMDB tools, like the status tool, had to be shut down, as the original authors of these tools are not updating the PHP code any more and their scripts were abused to (unsuccessfully) gain access to the database.

description: Science Data Systems (SDS) play a pivotal role in mission ground operations, managing, processing, and disseminating mission-generated scientific data. The LASP Data Systems group has transitioned from traditional monolithic servers to a cloud-based architecture, specifically leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this presentation, we will focus on the architecture of the Emirate Mars Mission's SDS, the first to be fully built and operated within AWS by our group. Developed since 2015 and launched in 2020, this system has successfully been in production for three years. We will discuss the architecture's evolution, the advantages gained from adopting AWS, and lessons learned. Additionally, we will share how these insights are being applied to future NASA-funded projects, including IMAP, CLARREO, and LIBERA. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits and challenges of migrating to a cloud-based SDS, informed by real-world experience.

description: In this work we use reinforcement learning to teach an agent the game of Schnapsen, the national card game of Austria. It is a trick-taking card game with imperfect information, since each player can only see the cards in their hand while the cards held by the opponent are unknown. We evaluate various methods of reinforcement learning regarding their suitability for this purpose. The results of our work may also be interesting in other areas like automated auctions, which may be viewed as games with simple rules and imperfect information about the bids of other participants.

PUNCH

description: The Polarimeter to UNify the Corona and Heliosphere (PUNCH) NASA Small Explorer (SMEX) mission team is developing software to solve common astronomical problems. regularizePSF corrects variable point spread functions, and solpolpy resolves solar polarization to a standard frame. These packages are used in the core PUNCH pipeline package - punchbowl. We developed this software with the larger scientific community's usability in mind, not just for use in our pipeline. regularizePSF is PyHC and AstroPy affiliated, and follows community development guidelines. We plan to affiliate solpolpy soon with PyHC and SunPy. Our packages heavily leverage SunPy, AstroPy, CCSDSPy, and ndcube as well as other general packages such as numpy, scikit-image, sep, and lmfit. We discuss the challenges that arise from a complex set of dependencies and share some lessons learned on how to modify code to address these challenges. Developing for a wider audience requires more extensive documentation, testing, and collaboration. These challenges led to more robust packages and enabled outside use and contributions. We believe more openness, collaboration, and development to a common standard will result in better science.

description: This short review aimed at (i) providing an update on the health benefits associated with melatonin supplementation, while (ii) considering future potential research directions concerning melatonin supplementation use relative to Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19). A narrative review of the literature was undertaken to ascertain the effect of exogenous melatonin administration on humans. Night-time melatonin administration has a positive impact on human physiology and mental health. Indeed, melatonin (i) modulates the circadian components of the sleep-wake cycle; (ii) improves sleep efficiency and mood status; (iii) improves insulin sensitivity; and (iv) reduces inflammatory markers and oxidative stress. Melatonin has also remarkable neuroprotective and cardioprotective effects and may therefore prevent deterioration caused by COVID-19. We suggest that melatonin could be used as a potential therapy in the post-COVID-19 syndrome, and therefore call for action the research community to investigate on the potential use of exogenous melatonin to enhance the quality of life in patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome.

description: Given a Kripke structure M and CTL formula $φ$, where M does not satisfy $φ$, the problem of Model Repair is to obtain a new model M' such that M' satisfies $φ$. Moreover, the changes made to M to derive M' should be minimum with respect to all such M'. As in model checking, state explosion can make it virtually impossible to carry out model repair on models with infinite or even large state spaces. In this paper, we present a framework for model repair that uses abstraction refinement to tackle state explosion. Our framework aims to repair Kripke Structure models based on a Kripke Modal Transition System abstraction and a 3-valued semantics for CTL. We introduce an abstract-model-repair algorithm for which we prove soundness and semi-completeness, and we study its complexity class. Moreover, a prototype implementation is presented to illustrate the practical utility of abstract-model-repair on an Automatic Door Opener system model and a model of the Andrew File System 1 protocol.

description: The Polarimeter to UNify the Corona and Heliosphere (PUNCH) is a NASA Small Explorer (SMEX) mission to better understand how the mass and energy of the Sun’s corona become the solar wind that fills the solar system. Four suitcase-sized satellites will operate in conjunction to continuously produce visible light images of the entire inner solar system. The PUNCH Science Operations Center (SOC) is responsible for generating and serving calibrated, multi-observatory data products and maintaining the publicly available PUNCH data analysis software packages. PUNCH data range from individual calibrated images in camera coordinates to fully integrated, polarization-resolved, multi-observation mosaics that span the corona and heliosphere from 5.4–180 solar radii - imaging the heliosphere in a 90° wide field-of-view. We have developed punchbowl, a Python package, to produce these products. punchbowl incorporates modern astronomical and solar tools such as SunPy, AstroPy and ndcube. It utilizes the open source workflow manager Prefect to create a flexible pipeline composed of processing modules, which allows execution both on mission hardware and scientists’ laptops with the ability to customize the pipeline for bespoke data products. We focus our presentation on how punchbowl balances requirements of open science, rigorous testing, security, and usability.

Year: 2016

description: This study tested whether individual executive function (EF) tasks were better characterized as formative (causal) or reflective (effect) indicators of the latent construct of EF. EF data that were collected as part of the Family Life Project (FLP), a prospective longitudinal study of families who were recruited at the birth of a new child (N = 1292), when children were 3, 4, and 5 years old. Vanishing tetrad tests were used to test the relative fit of models in which EF tasks were used as either formative or reflective indicators of the latent construct of EF in the prediction of intellectual ability (at age 3), attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms (at ages 3–5 years), and academic achievement (at kindergarten). Results consistently indicated that EF tasks were better represented as formative indicators of the latent construct of EF. Next, individual tasks were combined to form an overall measure of EF ability in ways generally consistent with formative (i.e., creating a composite mean score) and reflective (i.e., creating an EF factor score) measurement. The test-retest reliability and developmental trajectories of EF differed substantially, depending on which overall measure of EF ability was used. In general, the across-time stability of EF was markedly higher, perhaps implausibly high, when represented as a factor score versus composite score. Results are discussed with respect to the ways in which the statistical representation of EF tasks can exert a large impact on inferences regarding the developmental causes, course, and consequences of EF. More generally, these results exemplify how some psychological constructs may not conform to conventional measurement wisdom.

description: Space weather phenomena, driven by the dynamic behavior of the Sun and its interaction with the Earth's magnetosphere, pose significant challenges and opportunities for our modern technological society. Accurate prediction and monitoring of space weather events are essential for safeguarding critical infrastructure such as satellite communications, GPS navigation, power grids, and space missions.

 The Space Weather TREC (Technology, Research, and Education Center) Model Staging Platform https://swx-trec.com is a cutting-edge initiative that aims to revolutionize space weather forecasting and research. We will provide an overview of the underlying cloud-based technologies that the Space Weather TREC Model Staging Platform uses and highlight the key advancements and contributions it offers to the space weather research community.

 The platform integrates state-of-the-art computational models, observational data, and machine learning techniques to provide real-time and predictive insights into space weather events without needing to install or learn to run any of the models locally. Specifically we will demo several models: 1) H3lioviz, an interactive 3D visualizer that provides interactivity to 25 GB of data per model run in a seamless fashion without downloading data locally, 2) MSIS, a Fortran-based empirical model of the atmosphere that runs on serverless technologies, and 3) LiveDst, a machine learning model that is running on serverless technologies to produce 6-hour ahead predictions of Dst. These models show the breadth of capabilities the Model Staging Platform can support and the benefits of moving our infrastructure to the cloud.

description: Control Theory and other frameworks for understanding self-regulation suggest that monitoring goal progress is a crucial process that intervenes between setting and attaining a goal, and helps to ensure that goals are translated into action. However, the impact of progress monitoring interventions on rates of behavioral performance and goal attainment has yet to be quantified. A systematic literature search identified 138 studies (N = 19,951) that randomly allocated participants to an intervention designed to promote monitoring of goal progress versus a control condition. All studies reported the effects of the treatment on (a) the frequency of progress monitoring and (b) subsequent goal attainment. A random effects model revealed that, on average, interventions were successful at increasing the frequency of monitoring goal progress (d+ = 1.98, 95% CI: 1.71 to 2.24) and promoted goal attainment (d+ = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.32 to 0.48). Furthermore, changes in the frequency of progress monitoring mediated the effect of the interventions on goal attainment. Moderation tests revealed that progress monitoring had larger effects on goal attainment when the outcomes were reported or made public, and when the information was physically recorded. Taken together, the findings suggest that monitoring goal progress is an effective self-regulation strategy, and that interventions that increase the frequency of progress monitoring are likely to promote behavior change.

description: Though widely accepted, it is not proven that supermassive compact objects (SMCOs) residing in galactic centers are black holes. In particular, the Milky Way's SMCO can be a giant nontopological soliton, Q-ball, made of a scalar field: this fits perfectly all observational data. Similar but tiny Q-balls produced in the early Universe may constitute, partly or fully, the dark matter. This picture explains in a natural way, why our SMCO has very low accretion rate and why the observed angular size of the corresponding radio source is much smaller than expected. Interactions between dark-matter Q-balls may explain how SMCOs were seeded in galaxies and resolve well-known problems of standard (non-interacting) dark matter.

description: Background Childbirth is a potent trigger for the onset of psychiatric illness in women including postpartum depression (PPD) and postpartum psychosis (PP). Medical complications occurring during pregnancy and/or childbirth have been linked to postpartum psychiatric illness and sociodemographic factors. We evaluated if pregnancy and obstetrical predictors have similar effects on different types of postpartum psychiatric disorders. Method A population-based cohort study using Danish registers was conducted in 392 458 primiparous women with a singleton delivery between 1995 and 2012 and no previous psychiatric history. The main outcome was first-onset postpartum psychiatric episodes. Incidence rate ratios (IRRs) were calculated for any psychiatric contact in four quarters for the first year postpartum. Results PPD and postpartum acute stress reactions were associated with pregnancy and obstetrical complications. For PPD, hyperemesis gravidarum [IRR 2.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.93–3.73], gestational hypertension (IRR 1.84, 95% CI 1.33–2.55), pre-eclampsia (IRR 1.45, 95% CI 1.14–1.84) and Cesarean section (C-section) (IRR 1.32, 95% CI 1.13–1.53) were associated with increased risk. For postpartum acute stress, hyperemesis gravidarum (IRR 1.93, 95% CI 1.38–2.71), preterm birth (IRR 1.51, 95% CI 1.30–1.75), gestational diabetes (IRR 1.42, 95% CI 1.03–1.97) and C-section (IRR 1.36, 95% CI 1.20–1.55) were associated with increased risk. In contrast, risk of PP was not associated with pregnancy or obstetrical complications. Conclusions Pregnancy and obstetrical complications can increase the risk for PPD and acute stress reactions but not PP. Identification of postpartum women requiring secondary care is needed to develop targeted approaches for screening and treatment. Future work should focus on understanding the contributions of psychological stressors and underlying biology on the development of postpartum psychiatric illness.

description: We have identified a missing long-distance (one-photon exchange) contribution to the $B^\pm\to K^\pm/π^\pm\ell^+\ell^-$ decays. Although it does not help to explain the anomaly measured by the LHCb Coll. in the ratio $R_K = \mathcal{B}(B^\pm\to K^\pmμ^+μ^-)/\mathcal{B}(B^\pm\to K^\pm e^+e^-)\sim0.75$ (2.6 $σ$ deviation with respect to $R_K=1+\mathcal{O}(10^{-4})$ in the Standard Model), it provides a sizable contribution to the branching ratio of the $B^\pm\to π^\pm\ell^+\ell^-$ decays. The new decay mechanism gives rise to a measurable CP asymmetry, which is of order 1\% in both channels. These predictions can be tested in forthcoming LHCb measurements.

description: Background Advanced paternal age at childbirth is associated with psychiatric disorders in offspring, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and autism. However, few studies have investigated paternal age's relationship with eating disorders in offspring. In a large, population-based cohort, we examined the association between paternal age and offspring eating disorders, and whether that association remains after adjustment for potential confounders (e.g. parental education level) that may be related to late/early selection into fatherhood and to eating disorder incidence. Method Data for 2 276 809 individuals born in Sweden 1979–2001 were extracted from Swedish population and healthcare registers. The authors used Cox proportional hazards models to examine the effect of paternal age on the first incidence of healthcare-recorded anorexia nervosa (AN) and all eating disorders (AED) occurring 1987–2009. Models were adjusted for sex, birth order, maternal age at childbirth, and maternal and paternal covariates including country of birth, highest education level, and lifetime psychiatric and criminal history. Results Even after adjustment for covariates including maternal age, advanced paternal age was associated with increased risk, and younger paternal age with decreased risk, of AN and AED. For example, the fully adjusted hazard ratio for the 45+ years ( v . the 25–29 years) paternal age category was 1.32 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.14–1.53] for AN and 1.26 (95% CI 1.13–1.40) for AED. Conclusions In this large, population-based cohort, paternal age at childbirth was positively associated with eating disorders in offspring, even after adjustment for potential confounders. Future research should further explore potential explanations for the association, including de novo mutations in the paternal germline.
Learning Regular Languages over Large Ordered Alphabets

description: This work is concerned with regular languages defined over large alphabets, either infinite or just too large to be expressed enumeratively. We define a generic model where transitions are labeled by elements of a finite partition of the alphabet. We then extend Angluin's L* algorithm for learning regular languages from examples for such automata. We have implemented this algorithm and we demonstrate its behavior where the alphabet is a subset of the natural or real numbers. We sketch the extension of the algorithm to a class of languages over partially ordered alphabets.

description: Science Data Systems (SDS) play a pivotal role in mission ground operations, managing, processing, and disseminating mission-generated scientific data. The LASP Data Systems group has transitioned from traditional monolithic servers to a cloud-based architecture, specifically leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this presentation, we will focus on the architecture of the Emirate Mars Mission's SDS, the first to be fully built and operated within AWS by our group. Developed since 2015 and launched in 2020, this system has successfully been in production for three years. We will discuss the architecture's evolution, the advantages gained from adopting AWS, and lessons learned. Additionally, we will share how these insights are being applied to future NASA-funded projects, including IMAP, CLARREO, and LIBERA. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits and challenges of migrating to a cloud-based SDS, informed by real-world experience.

description: Background Assaultive violence events are associated with increased risk for adverse psychiatric outcomes, including post-traumatic stress (PTS), depression, and generalized anxiety. Prior research has indicated that economic, legal, and social stressors that could follow assaultive events may explain the increased risk for adverse psychiatric outcomes, yet longitudinal studies have not adequately examined this pathway. In the current study, we aimed to address this limitation. Methods Participants ( N = 1360) were part of a longitudinal population-based study of adults living in Detroit. At three waves, participants indicated their exposure to assaultive violence and economic, legal, and social stressors, and completed inventories of PTS, depression, and generalized anxiety. Longitudinal mediation models were used to test the hypothesized pathway from assaultive violence to each psychiatric outcome. Results The hypothesized models evidenced good fit with the data and, in each, the paths from Wave 1 (W1) assaultive violence to W2 stressors, and from W2 stressors to W3 symptoms were significant (range of Standardized Estimates: 0.09–0.15, all p < 0.01). Additionally, the indirect paths from W1 assaultive violence to W3 symptoms were significant (range of Standardized Estimates: 0.01–0.02, all p < 0.05). Conclusions The findings illustrate that the economic, legal, and social stressors that could follow assaultive violence increase risk for a range of psychiatric symptoms. Although future research is needed, the results suggest that investment in interventions that prevent and mitigate assaultive violence survivors’ exposure to such stressors may be an effective way to prevent mental illness in the aftermath of violent assaults.
