description: Accurate seismic velocity estimations are vital to understanding Earth's subsurface structures, assessing natural resources, and evaluating seismic hazards. Machine learning-based inversion algorithms have shown promising performance in regional (i.e., for exploration) and global velocity estimation, while their effectiveness hinges on access to large and diverse training datasets whose distributions generally cover the target solutions. Additionally, enhancing the precision and reliability of velocity estimation also requires incorporating prior information, e.g., geological classes, well logs, and subsurface structures, but current statistical or neural network-based methods are not flexible enough to handle such multi-modal information. To address both challenges, we propose to use conditional generative diffusion models for seismic velocity synthesis, in which we readily incorporate those priors. This approach enables the generation of seismic velocities that closely match the expected target distribution, offering datasets informed by both expert knowledge and measured data to support training for data-driven geophysical methods. We demonstrate the flexibility and effectiveness of our method through training diffusion models on the OpenFWI dataset under various conditions, including class labels, well logs, reflectivity images, and the combination of these priors. The performance of the approach under out-of-distribution conditions further underscores its generalization ability, showcasing its potential to provide tailored priors for velocity inverse problems and create specific training datasets for machine learning-based geophysical applications.

description: Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) solar cell technology is a promising candidate to help boost green energy production. However, impurities and structural defects are major barriers to improving the solar power conversion efficiency. Grain boundaries often act as aggregation sites for impurities, resulting in strain localization in areas of high diffusion. In this study, we demonstrate the use of scanning 3D X-ray diffraction microscopy to non-destructively make 3D maps of the grains, their phase, orientation, and local strain within a CdTe solar cell absorber layer with a resolution of 100 nm. We quantify twin boundaries and suggest how they affect grain size and orientation distribution. Local strain analysis reveals that strain is primarily associated with high misorientation grain boundaries, whereas twin boundaries do not show high strain values. We also observe that high-strain grain boundaries form a continuous pathway connected to the CdS layer. Hence, this high-strain region is believed to be associated with the diffusion of sulfur from the CdS layer along grain boundaries. This hypothesis is supported by SEM EDS and X-ray fluorescence experiments. The method and analysis demonstrated in this work can be applied to different polycrystalline materials where the characterization of grain boundary properties is essential to understand the microstructural phenomena.

description: This paper investigates the accelerated cosmic expansion in the late Universe by examining two dark energy models, viscous modified Chaplygin gas (VsMCG) and variable modified Chaplygin gas (VMCG), within loop quantum cosmology alongside the $Λ$CDM model. The objective is to constrain cosmic parameters using the $Λ$CDM model and 30 of the latest $H(z)$ measurements from cosmic chronometers (CC), including Type Ia Supernovae, Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB), Quasars, and 24 uncorrelated baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements across a redshift range from 0.106 to 2.33. The latest Hubble constant measurement from Riess in 2022 is included to enhance constraints. In the $Λ$CDM, VsMCG, and VMCG frameworks, best-fit parameters for the Hubble parameter ($H_0$) and sound horizon ($r_d$) are obtained. The results highlight significant disparities between $H_0$ and $r_d$ values from late-time observational measurements, reflecting the known $H_0$ and $r_d$ tensions. The gravitational lensing optical depth of the two dark energy models is studied by plotting $\log(τ(z_l)/H_0^{-3} τ_N)$ vs $z_l$. The probability of finding gravitational lenses (optical depth) in both models increases with lens redshift $z_l$. The change in optical depth behavior for different parameter constraints is graphically analyzed. A joint analysis of VsMCG and VMCG with $Λ$CDM is conducted. While the models diverge in the early Universe, they are indistinguishable at low redshift. Using the Akaike information criteria, the analysis indicates that neither dark energy model can be

description: We introduce a discrete, graph theoretic approach to conformal field theory correlators. In a certain basis, called the squid basis, the correlator of N scalar operators can be expressed as the determinant of a natural, conformally covariant metric on a weighted graph, called the squid graph. We present the construction of this metric and discuss its possible role in constraining conformal data.

description: Arrays of microcavity polaritons are very versatile systems that allow for broad possibilities for the engineering of multi-orbital lattice geometries using different state preparation schemes. One of these schemes, spatially modulated resonant driving, can be used to selectively localize the polariton field on a particular region of the lattice. Both the frequency and the spatial amplitude distribution (module and phase) of the driven laser field are important and serve as a knob to control the extend of the spatial localization. Here, we analyse both the linear and nonlinear regimes using the lattice Green function formalism that is particularly suitable for the case of polariton arrays described in a tight-binding approximation. We identify the conditions for maximum localization on arbitrary lattice's geometries and discuss some experimentally relevant cases. We find that the polariton-polariton interaction leads to a frequency shift of the optimal localization condition that could be used to further control it.

description: The principle of multi-critical-points (PMCP) may be a convincing approach to determine the emerging parameter values in different kinds of beyond-standard-model (BSM) models. This could certainly be applied to solve the problem of undetermined new parameters in the ALP-Higgs interaction models. In this paper, we apply this principle to such model and investigate whether there are suitable solutions. Then, using the 1-loop effective potential, we study the phase transition property of this model under the PMCP requirement. It is gratifying to find that under the requirement of PMCP, the phase transition can be not only first-order, but also strong enough to serve as a solution for electroweak baryongenesis (EWBG). Finally, we show the parameter space of ALP and provide the parameter range that leads to the first-order phase transition.

Observation of the $Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ $\to$ $ψ$(2S)$Ξ^-$ decay and studies of the $Ξ_\mathrm{b}$(5945)$^{0}$ baryon in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

description: The first observation of the decay $Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ $\to$ $ψ$(2S)$Ξ^-$ and measurement of the branching ratio of $Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ $\to$ $ψ$(2S)$Ξ^-$ to $Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ $\to$ J/$ψ$$Ξ^-$ are presented. The J/$ψ$ and $ψ$(2S) mesons are reconstructed using their dimuon decay modes. The results are based on proton-proton colliding beam data from the LHC collected by the CMS experiment at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV in 2016-2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb$^{-1}$. The branching fraction ratio is measured to be $\mathcal{B}$($Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ $\to$ $ψ$(2S)$Ξ^-$) / $\mathcal{B}$($Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ $\to$ J/$ψ$$Ξ^-$) = 0.84 $^{+0.21}_{-0.19}$ (stat) $\pm$ 0.10 (syst) $\pm$ 0.02 ($\mathcal{B}$), where the last uncertainty comes from the uncertainties in the branching fractions of the charmonium states. New measurements of the $Ξ_\mathrm{b}$(5945)$^{0}$ baryon mass and natural width are also presented, using the $Ξ_\mathrm{b}^-π^+$ final state, where the $Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ baryon is reconstructed through the decays J/$ψΞ^-$, $ψ$(2S)$Ξ^-$, J/$ψΛ$K$^-$, and J/$ψΣ^0$K$^-$. Finally, the fraction of the $Ξ^-_\mathrm{b}$ baryons produced from $Ξ_\mathrm{b}$(5945)$^{0}$ decays is determined.

description: The conformal flatness approximation to the Einstein equations has been successfully used in many astrophysical applications such as initial data constructions and dynamical simulations. Although it has been shown that full general relativistic strongly differentially rotating equilibrium models deviate by at most a few percent from their conformally flat counterparts, whether those conformally flat solutions remain stable has not been fully addressed. To further understand the limitations of the conformal flatness approximation, in this work, we construct spatially-conformally-flat hot hypermassive neutron stars with post-merger-like rotation laws, and perform conformally flat evolutions and analysis over dynamical timescales. We find that enforcing conformally-flat spacetime could change the equilibrium of quasi-toroidal models with high angular momentum for $J \gtrsim 9 ~G M_{\odot}^2 / c$ compared to fully general relativistic cases. In contrast, all the quasi-spherical models considered in this work remain stable even with high angular momentum $J=9~G M_{\odot}^2 / c$. Our investigation suggests that the quasi-spherical models are suitable initial data for long-lived hypermassive neutron star modeling in conformally flat spacetime.

description: The recently proposed combination of the valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group (VS-IMSRG) with the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) offers a scalable and flexible many-body approach for strongly correlated open-shell nuclei. We use the VS-DMRG to investigate the low-lying spectroscopy of N=50 isotones, which are characteristic for their transition between single-particle and collective excitations. We also study electromagnetic transitions and show the advantage of the VS-DMRG to capture the underlying physics more efficiently, with significantly improved convergence compared to state-of-the-art shell-model truncations. Combined with an analysis of quantum information measures, this further establishes the VS-DMRG as a valuable method for ab initio calculations of nuclei.

description: Topotactic reduction utilizing metal hydrides as reagents emerges as an effective approach to achieve exceptionally low oxidization states of metal ions and unconventional coordination networks. This method opens avenues to the development of entirely new functional materials, with one notable example being the infinite-layer nickelate superconductors. However, the reduction effect on the atomic reconstruction and electronic structures -- crucial for superconductivity -- remains largely unresolved. We design two sets of control Nd$_{0.8}$Sr$_{0.2}$NiO$_2$ thin films and implement secondary ion mass spectroscopy to highlight the absence of reduction-induced hydrogen intercalation. X-ray absorption spectroscopy shows a significant linear dichroism with dominant Ni 3d$_{x2{-}y2}$ orbitals on superconducting samples, indicating a Ni single-band nature of infinite-layer nickelates. Consistent with the superconducting $T_c$, the Ni 3d orbitals asymmetry manifests a dome-like reduction duration dependence. Our results unveil the critical role of reduction in modulating the Ni-3d orbital polarization and its impact on the superconducting properties.

description: Exercise-based rehabilitation programs have proven to be effective in enhancing the quality of life and reducing mortality and rehospitalization rates. AI-driven virtual rehabilitation, which allows patients to independently complete exercises at home, utilizes AI algorithms to analyze exercise data, providing feedback to patients and updating clinicians on their progress. These programs commonly prescribe a variety of exercise types, leading to a distinct challenge in rehabilitation exercise assessment datasets: while abundant in overall training samples, these datasets often have a limited number of samples for each individual exercise type. This disparity hampers the ability of existing approaches to train generalizable models with such a small sample size per exercise type. Addressing this issue, this paper introduces a novel supervised contrastive learning framework with hard and soft negative samples that effectively utilizes the entire dataset to train a single model applicable to all exercise types. This model, with a Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network (ST-GCN) architecture, demonstrated enhanced generalizability across exercises and a decrease in overall complexity. Through extensive experiments on three publicly available rehabilitation exercise assessment datasets, UI-PRMD, IRDS, and KIMORE, our method has proven to surpass existing methods, setting a new benchmark in rehabilitation exercise quality assessment.

description: It has been argued that the speed of sound of the strong interaction at high temperature can be measured using the variation of the mean transverse momentum with the particle multiplicity in ultracentral heavy-ion collisions. We test this correspondence by running hydrodynamic simulations at zero impact parameter with several equations of state, at several colliding energies from 0.2 TeV to 15 TeV per nucleon pair. The correspondence is found to be precise and robust for a smooth, boost-invariant fluid and an ideal detector. We discuss the differences between this ideal setup and an actual experiment. We conclude that the extraction of the speed of sound from data is reliable, and that the main uncertainty comes from our poor knowledge of the distribution of density fluctuations at the early stages of the collision.

description: This study examines accelerated cosmic expansion using the Viscous Modified Chaplygin Gas (VMMG) and Generalized Cosmic Chaplygin Gas (GCCM) within Horava-Lifshitz gravity. Our aim is to constrain essential cosmological parameters, such as the Hubble Parameter ($H_{0}$) and Sound Horizon ($r_{d}$). We utilize late-time datasets: 17 Baryon Acoustic Oscillation observations, 33 Cosmic Chronometer measurements, 40 Type Ia Supernovae data points, 24 quasar Hubble diagram data points, and 162 Gamma Ray Bursts data points, along with the latest determination of the Hubble constant (R22). Treating $r_{d}$ as a free parameter offers several advantages, including mitigating bias, enhancing precision, and improving compatibility with various datasets. By introducing random correlations in the covariance matrix during simulation, errors are effectively reduced. Our estimated values of the Hubble constant ($H_0$) and $r_{d}$ consistently align with measurements from both the Planck and SDSS experiments. Cosmographic tests provide valuable insights into the dynamics of various cosmological models, enriching our understanding of cosmic evolution. Statefinder diagnostics offer deeper insights into cosmic expansion dynamics, aiding in distinguishing between cosmological frameworks. Furthermore, the $o_{m}$ diagnostic test reveals that at late times, VMMG falls into the phantom region, while GCCM falls into the quintessence region. The Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) support all models, indicating plausible explanations. Notably, the $Λ$CDM model emerges with the lowest AIC score, suggesting its relatively superior fit. Validation via the reduced $χ_{\text{red}}^{2}$ statistic confirms satisfactory fits across all models, reinforcing their credibility.

description: In view of the shortage of healthcare workers and a growing aging population, it is worthwhile to explore the applicability of new technologies in improving the quality of healthcare and reducing its cost. However, it remains a challenge to deploy such technologies in environments where individuals have limited knowledge about how to use them. Thus, this paper explores how the social robots designed for use in health settings in Australia have sought to overcome some of the limitations through personalization. Deployed in aged care and home-based care facilities, the social robots are person-centered, emphasizing the personalization of care with human-like attributes (e.g., human appearances) to engage in reciprocal communication with users. While there have been debates over the advantages and disadvantages of personalization, this paper discusses the implications of personalization on the design of the robots for enhancing engagement, empowerment and enablement in health settings.

description: Routine inspections for critical infrastructures such as bridges are required in most jurisdictions worldwide. Such routine inspections are largely visual in nature, which are qualitative, subjective, and not repeatable. Although robotic infrastructure inspections address such limitations, they cannot replace the superior ability of experts to make decisions in complex situations, thus making human-robot interaction systems a promising technology. This study presents a novel gaze-based human-robot interaction system, designed to augment the visual inspection performance through mixed reality. Through holograms from a mixed reality device, gaze can be utilized effectively to estimate the properties of the defect in real-time. Additionally, inspectors can monitor the inspection progress online, which enhances the speed of the entire inspection process. Limited controlled experiments demonstrate its effectiveness across various users and defect types. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of the real-time application of eye gaze in civil infrastructure inspections.

description: Modulation of magnetization in magnetic Weyl semimetals leads to the shift of Weyl points in momentum space, which effectively serves as the chirality-dependent gauge field for the Weyl fermions. Here, we theoretically study such a magnetization-induced chiral gauge field, in a fully spin-polarized Weyl ferromagnet $\rm{Co}_3\rm{Sn}_2\rm{S}_2$. From a tight-binding model of $\rm{Co}_3\rm{Sn}_2\rm{S}_2$ on stacked kagome lattice with magnetism, we calculate the magnetization-dependent evolution of the Weyl points in momentum space, resulting in the chiral gauge field. In the presence of the magnetic domain wall structure, we evaluate the chiral magnetic field arising from the spatial profile of the chiral gauge field. We find that a magnetic domain wall in $\rm{Co}_3\rm{Sn}_2\rm{S}_2$ gives rise to a giant chiral magnetic field for the Weyl fermions, which reaches the order of a few hundred tesla to induce the Landau quantization. Such a giant chiral magnetic field may also influence the novel transport phenomena, such as the charge pumping by the domain wall motion, compatible with the spin-motive force.

description: We present an analysis of high angular resolution images of the microlensing target MOA-2007-BLG-192 using Keck adaptive optics and the Hubble Space Telescope. The planetary host star is robustly detected as it separates from the background source star in nearly all of the Keck and Hubble data. The amplitude and direction of the lens-source separation allows us to break a degeneracy related to the microlensing parallax and source radius crossing time. Thus, we are able to reduce the number of possible solutions by a factor of ${\sim}2$, demonstrating the power of high angular resolution follow-up imaging for events with sparse light curve coverage. Following Bennett et al. 2023, we apply constraints from the high resolution imaging on the light curve modeling to find host star and planet masses of $M_{\textrm{host}} = 0.28 \pm 0.04M_{\odot}$ and $m_p = 12.49^{+65.47}_{-8.03}M_{\oplus}$ at a distance from Earth of $D_L = 2.16 \pm 0.30\,$kpc. This work illustrates the necessity for the Nancy Grace Roman Galactic Exoplanet Survey (RGES) to use its own high resolution imaging to inform light curve modeling for microlensing planets that the mission discovers.

Identifying and Characterizing Outflows in Outflows of Metal-Poor Starbursting Galaxies
Creators: name: McPherson, Daniel
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This thesis studies several nearby, low-metallicity starbursting galaxies using the Keck II telescope on Mauna Kea in order to determine the presence of, and characterize the properties of star-formation driven galaxy-scale gas outflows. This thesis developed new methods for measuring and defining these outflows, intended for application to large samples of galaxies. The thesis provides measurement of the global geometric properties of the observed outflows, and compares the outflow gas to that observed within the galaxy disk, with a view to answering the question of how these outflows fit into the overall picture of galaxy evolution.

description: Recently, Wald and Henkel (2018) derived the leading-order estimate of the Humbert functions $Φ_2$, $Φ_3$ and $Ξ_2$ for two large arguments, but their technique cannot handle the Humbert function $Ψ_1$. In this paper, we establish the leading asymptotic behavior of the Humbert function $Ψ_1$ for two large arguments. Our proof is based on a connection formula of the Gauss hypergeometric function and Nagel's approach (2004). This approach is also applied to deduce asymptotic expansions of the generalized hypergeometric function $_pF_q$ $(p\leqslant q)$ for large parameters, which are not contained in NIST handbook.

description: The Voids-within-Voids-within-Voids (VVV) project used dark-matter-only simulations to study the abundance and structure of dark matter haloes over the full mass range populated in the standard $Λ\mathrm{CDM}$ cosmology. Here we explore how baryonic effects modify these results for $z=0$ halo masses in the range $10^4$ to $10^7~\mathrm{M_\odot}$, below the threshold for galaxy formation. Our main study focuses on three simulations from identical initial conditions at $z=127$, one following dark matter only, one including non-radiative gas, and one additionally including the baryonic physics relevant in this halo mass range (cooling and photoheating). In the non-radiative simulation, above $10^{5.5}~\mathrm{M_\odot}$, halo abundance and internal structure are very similar to the dark-matter-only simulation, and the baryon to dark matter ratio is everywhere close to the cosmic value. At lower mass, this ratio drops and haloes are less concentrated and less massive in the non-radiative case. Test simulations at higher resolution show this to be mainly a resolution effect; the expected drop in baryon content due to residual pressure effects only becomes substantial for $z=0$ haloes below $\sim 10^{2.7}~\mathrm{M_\odot}$. However, gas is heated by reionization at $z=6$ in our "full physics" run, and this results in almost complete expulsion of gas from all haloes in our simulated mass range. This suppresses the halo mass function by $\sim 30 \%$, lowers halo concentration, and consequently weakens the dark matter annihilation signal by $\sim 40-60 \%$.

Quadratic speed-ups in quantum kernelized binary classification

description: Classification is at the core of data-driven prediction and decision-making, representing a fundamental task in supervised machine learning. Recently, several quantum machine learning algorithms that use quantum kernels as a measure of similarities between data have emerged to perform binary classification on datasets encoded as quantum states. The potential advantages of quantum kernels arise from the ability of quantum computers to construct kernels that are more effective than their classical counterparts in capturing patterns in data or computing kernels more efficiently. However, existing quantum kernel-based classification algorithms do not harness the capability of having data samples in quantum superposition for additional enhancements. In this work, we demonstrate how such capability can be leveraged in quantum kernelized binary classifiers (QKCs) through Quantum Amplitude Estimation (QAE) for quadratic speed-up. Additionally, we propose new quantum circuits for the QKCs in which the number of qubits is reduced by one, and the circuit depth is reduced linearly with respect to the number of sample data. We verify the quadratic speed-up over previous methods through numerical simulations on the Iris dataset.

description: The relationship between culture and policy has long been a major topic for media and cultural studies. With this issue, we hope to broaden the meaning of cultural policy, from policies that are explicitly regulating something we call the “cultural” (including media or traditional rituals or symbols) to include the practice of policy-making and the cultural legitimation of law and policy itself, regardless of the object or dimension of social life it regulates. The essays in this issue argue for (or at least accept) an understanding of policy as a cultural production representing certain ideological outlooks, and thus implicitly suggest that cultural policy studies should encompass a wide range of policies; at the same time, the essays are interested in the cultural mechanisms and means through which policies are promulgated and enforced - from think tanks to social media flak, from the global circulation of ideologies to the local practices of appropriation/resistance.
ТРАНСФОРМАЦИЯ ЛЕКСИКОГРАФИЧЕСКОГО КАНОНА В СОВРЕМЕННОМ ИСКУССТВЕ

description: The article examines the ways in which modern Western authors use the canons of lexicographic representation of material in their texts. A dictionary as a collection of information about various phenomena contained in concepts, terms and their definitions is a universal form of knowledge. Dictionary representation allows you to record and transfer knowledge from generation to generation. Traditionally, the form of the dictionary is correlated with scientific discourse. Contemporary art creatively uses the established lexicographic canon. The external form of the dictionary is used almost unchanged, but the content of the dictionary entry is modified, and the author’s methods of presenting information are introduced. The functions of the dictionary are shifting towards the information and advertising discourse of non-commercial art. Contemporary authors initiate a creative approach to creating a dictionary of a new type of art - mail art. The material for our research are alphabetical dictionaries published in the magazines “Numero” and “Kairan” from the late 20th to early 21st centuries.
