description: Large dark matter overdensities can form around black holes of astrophysical and primordial origin as they form and grow. This "dark dress" inevitably affects the dynamical evolution of binary systems, and induces a dephasing in the gravitational waveform that can be probed with future interferometers. In this paper, we introduce a new analytical model to rapidly compute gravitational waveforms in presence of an evolving dark matter distribution. We then present a Bayesian analysis determining when dressed black hole binaries can be distinguished from GR-in-vacuum ones and how well their parameters can be measured, along with how close they must be to be detectable by the planned Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). We show that LISA can definitively distinguish dark dresses from standard binaries and characterize the dark matter environments around astrophysical and primordial black holes for a wide range of model parameters. Our approach can be generalized to assess the prospects for detecting, classifying, and characterizing other environmental effects in gravitational wave physics.

description: Systematic uncertainties in the conversion of measured counts to phase space density by charged particle instrumentation result in errors in reported plasma moments (e.g., density, velocity, and temperature). Unlike previous particle instrumentation that relied on a spacecraft spin to sample all look-directions, the Fast Plasma Investigation (FPI) suite on NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale mission nearly simultaneously images the full sky. This configuration results in unprecedented time resolution but also introduces the possibility of spin tones in plasma moments, in particular electron bulk velocity. Here we characterize the effect of systematic linear errors of corrected FPI phase space densities on its reported plasma moments. We find that the flat-fielding correction factors (i.e., scale factor errors) of FPI are typically accurate to within a few percent but can nonetheless result in significant spin tones in magnetospheric plasmas.

description: We propose a data-driven method to describe consistent equations of state (EOS) for arbitrary systems. Complex EOS are traditionally obtained by fitting suitable analytical expressions to thermophysical data. A key aspect of EOS are that the relationships between state variables are given by derivatives of the system free energy. In this work, we model the free energy with an artificial neural network, and utilize automatic differentiation to directly learn the derivatives of the free energy. We demonstrate this approach on two different systems, the analytic van der Waals EOS, and published data for the Lennard-Jones fluid, and show that it is advantageous over direct learning of thermodynamic properties (i.e. not as derivatives of the free energy, but as independent properties), in terms of both accuracy and the exact preservation of the Maxwell relations. Furthermore, the method implicitly provides the free energy of a system without explicit integration.

description: A holographic computation of $T_c$ at ${\it intermediate\ coupling}$ from M-theory dual of thermal QCD-like theories, has been missing in the literature. Filling this gap, we demonstrate a novel UV-IR mixing, (conjecture and provide evidence for) a non-renormalization beyond 1 loop of ${\bf M}-{\bf c}$hiral perturbation theory arXiv:2011.04660[hep-th]-compatible deconfinement ${\bf T}$emperature, and show equivalence with an ${\bf E}$ntanglement (as well as Wald) entropy arXiv:0709.2140[hep-th] computation, up to terms ${\bf Q}$uartic in curvature. We demonstrate a ${\bf F}$lavor-${\bf M}$emory (FM) effect in the M-theory uplifts of the gravity duals, wherein the no-braner M-theory uplift retains the "memory" of the flavor D7-branes of the parent type IIB dual in the sense that a specific combination of the aforementioned quartic corrections to the metric components precisely along the compact part of the non-compact four-cycle "wrapped" by the flavor D7-branes, is what determines, e.g., the Einstein-Hilbert action at O$(R^4)$. The same linear combination of O$(R^4)$ metric corrections, upon matching the phenomenological value of the coupling constant of one of the SU(3) NLO ChPT Lagrangian, is required to have a definite sign. Interestingly, in the decompactification limit of the spatial circle, we ${\it derive}$ this, and obtain the values of the relevant O$(R^4)$ metric corrections. Further, equivalence with Wald entropy for the black hole at ${\cal O}(R^4)$ imposes a linear constraint on the same linear combination of metric corrections. Remarkably, when evaluating $T_c$ from an entanglement entropy computation in the thermal gravity dual, due to a delicate cancelation between the ${\cal O}(R^4)$ corrections from a subset of the abovementioned metric components, one sees that there are no corrections to $T_c$ at quartic order supporting the conjecture referred to above.

description: The objective of this study is to investigate the hydrogeological characteristics of the spring aquifer system in the central eastern Jordan valley in Jericho areas and to determine the influence of its hydrochemical characteristics in qualitative potentials. The springs are used for domestic water supplies and irrigation in Jericho areas, which is considered as one of the most important areas in the West Bank feeding from the “spring system complex”. From the geological and structural point of view, the area is considered to be as complex in regards to the major structural features of faults and folds. The physical properties (pH, DO, temperature, TDS and EC) were interpreted. The hydro-chemical concentration major ions of Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Cl¯, SO4 2¯, NO3 ¯ and HCO3 ¯were analyzed for the spring water system samples. The microbiological parameters of total and fecal coliforms were analyzed for the targeted springs and indicates of no detected pollution.

description: Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) is a promising approach to solve the problem of grid-level intermittent supply and demand mismatch, caused due to renewable energy resources, because it uses the existing resource of electric vehicle (EV) batteries as the energy storage medium. EV battery design together with an impetus on profitability for participating EV owners is pivotal for V2G success. To better understand what battery device parameters are most important for V2G adoption, we model the economics of V2G process under realistic conditions. Most previous studies that perform V2G economic analysis, assume ideal driving conditions, use linear battery degradation models, or only consider V2G for ancillary services. Our model accounts realistic battery degradation, empirical charging efficiencies, for randomness in commute behavior, and historic hourly electricity prices in six cities in the United States. We model user behavior with Bayesian optimization to provide a best-case scenario for V2G. Across all cities, we find that charging rate and efficiency are the most important factors that determine EV users' profits. Surprisingly, EV battery cost and thus degradation due to cycling has little effect. These findings should help focus research on figures of merit that better reflect real usage of batteries in a V2G economy.

description: Present protocols of criticality-enhanced sensing with open quantum sensors assume direct measurement of the sensor and omit the radiation quanta emitted to the environment, thereby potentially missing valuable information. Here we propose a protocol for criticality-enhanced sensing via continuous observation of the emitted radiation quanta. Under general assumptions, we establish a scaling theory for the global quantum Fisher information of the joint system and environment state at dissipative critical points. We derive universal scaling laws featuring transient and long-time behavior governed by the underlying critical exponents. Importantly, such scaling laws exceed the standard quantum limit and can in principle saturate the Heisenberg limit. To harness such advantageous scaling, we propose a practical sensing scheme based on continuous detection of the emitted quanta as realized experimentally in various quantum-optical setups. In such a scheme a single interrogation corresponds to a (stochastic) quantum trajectory of the open system evolving under the nonunitary dynamics dependent on the parameter to be sensed and the backaction of the continuous measurement. Remarkably, we demonstrate that the associated precision scaling significantly exceeds that based on direct measurement of the critical steady state, thereby establishing the metrological value of the continuous detection of the emitted quanta at dissipative criticality. We illustrate our protocol via counting the photons emitted by the open Rabi model, a paradigmatic model for the study of dissipative phase transition with finite components. Our protocol is applicable to generic quantum-optical open sensors permitting continuous readout, and may find applications at the frontier of quantum sensing, such as the human-machine interface, magnetic diagnosis of heart disease, and zero-field nuclear magnetic resonance.

description: The Sars-Cov2 syndemic has considerably exacerbated the disparities among countries and inequalities among people, leading to the first setback in implementing the 17 goals of the UN 2030 Agenda. International reports on global economic trends show an unprecedented acceleration of social and economic poverty in short to medium term. Forecasting exercises do not provide better prospects for the future. Based on these assumptions, this paper suggests some macro-themes against which to set up epistemological research to explain the rapid changes in the global economy.

description: We investigate the kinetic structure of electron-scale current sheets found in the vicinity of the magnetopause and embedded in the magnetosheath within the reconnection exhaust. A new technique for computing terms of the Vlasov equation using Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) measurements is presented and applied to study phase space density gradients and the kinetic origins of the electron pressure divergence found within these current sheets. Crescent-shaped structures in ∇⊥2fe give rise to bipolar and quadrupolar signatures in v·∇fe measured near the maximum ∇·Pe inside the current layers. The current density perpendicular to the magnetic field is strong (J⊥∼2 μA/m²), and the thickness of the current layers ranges from 3 to 5 electron inertial lengths. The electron flows supporting the current layers mainly result from the combination of E×B and diamagnetic drifts. We find nonzero J·E′ within the current sheets even though they are observed apart from typical diffusion region signatures.

Si riscontra infatti una difficoltà a identificare il ruolo del fattore culturale all’interno del binomio culturasviluppo, poiché, rispetto ad altri ambiti della Cooperazione, i suoi effetti sono difficilmente circoscrivibili e misurabili. Eppure oltre trent’anni di dibattito hanno evidenziato che questo binomio, se adeguatamente promosso, contribuisce non solo a creare nuove attività economiche, ma anche a consolidare senso di identità e valori collettivi, rendendo sostenibile lo sviluppo stesso e più efficaci gli altri ambiti della cooperazione.

description: Academia supports the development aid sector mostly through technical training of development workers and ad hoc consultancies. What is often lacking, however, is a reflection that critically appraises the concepts of development and their transformations. This seems to be reflected in two trends that characterise the relationship between universities and civil society: the gap between research and practice and the increasingly technical approach to development issues. This contribution aims to explore these aspects in more depth, offering keys to interpret the relationship between research and practice and to revitalise the collaboration between academia and civil society.

description: As the drivers of deforestation are manifold, the reasons for reforestation and afforestation (AR), that involved Ethiopia since the late Nineteenth century to the present, have changed over time. After a brief historical overview, the article aims to analyse the four editions of Green Legacy, a regreenization initiative led by Pm Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed. The initiative, while retaining the objectives of past AR operations, such as tackling environmental degradation and mitigating GHG (strategically removed in the project narrative), has clothed the entire operation with a new aesthetic and political significance, aimed primarily to celebrate the Pm’s political season.

description: The Fast Plasma Investigation (Pollock et al., , https://doi.org/10.1007/s11214-016-0245-4; FPI) onboard the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission (Burch, Moore, et al., , https://doi.org/10.1007/s11214-015-0164-9; MMS) uses a discrete wavelet transform and bit plane encoder (DWT/BPE; Winterrowd et al., , https://doi.org/10.1109/AERO.2010.5446664) for data compression. This is the first plasma spectrometer suite to use this method of compression and thus serves as a benchmark for future plasma spectrometers. Flight data from MMS confirm viability of this compression algorithm in large areas of the magnetosphere. Because much of the FPI data were compressed losslessly on orbit, this flight data can be used as seed data to investigate performance of the DWT/BPE-based compression at increased rates of compression. In this study, data from several representative regions of the magnetosphere have been compressed to increasingly small sizes and the resulting error was analyzed. Wavelet-based compression is shown to be effective in all regions of the magnetosphere and solar wind for plasma count data, with performance varying with local environment. Specifically, plasma distributions that are characterized by low temperature and/or low density are compressed better leading to excellent performance in plasma regions such as solar wind and the magnetosheath. In general, ion data are compressed better than electron data, primarily due to a higher drift velocity of ions relative to their thermal speed and lower count rates. DWT/BPE compression can therefore be recommended for future instruments measuring count data in Earth's magnetosphere and in solar wind.

description: The Igad region is considered one of the most vulnerable to both natural climate variability and climate change. Moreover, local people’s vulnerability is compounded by other critical factors such as social and political instability, poor economic conditions. Thus, it is fundamental to develop a holistic approach, aimed both at reducing vulnerability and increasing institutional and organizational capacities to manage risk. This contribution presents part of the activities implemented within an international project focused on flood displacement risk reduction in the Igad region. Related activities are based on a capacity development approach. In the project, an agent-based model was chosen for testing the impact of policies on human displacement and informing policy-makers thanks to a reiterative process.

description: The Fast Plasma Investigation onboard the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission captures full-sky particle data over a range of 10 eV to 30 keV every 30 ms for electrons and 150 ms for ions. Only about 5% of the count data at this time resolution are sent to the ground due to telemetry limitations; however, a complete set of onboard trigger terms are sent due to their small data volume. These trigger terms are composed of simplified integrals that scale proportionally to plasma moments. They were initially conceived as a mechanism to rank scientific data for priority downlink; however, they can be adapted to represent pseudo moment quantities that are accurate to within several percent of fully corrected plasma moments. Tuning the dynamic range per plasma region and correcting via a trained neural network allow for far greater accuracy than previous missions. Corrections are performed based on statistical sampling of data from the first MMS day side pass. The corrections are validated by comparing pseudo moments to a published event showcasing detection of kinetic Alfvén waves. Physically accurate pseudo plasma moment quantities are available for the entirety of the MMS prime science regions, and can be a valuable asset for future scientific analysis of the MMS data repository.

description: We investigate the fine-grained entropy of the de Sitter cosmological horizon. Starting from three-dimensional pure de Sitter space, we consider a partial reduction approach, which supplies an auxiliary system acting as a heat bath both at future infinity and inside the static patch. This allows us to study the time-dependent entropy of radiation collected for both observers in the out-of-equilibrium Unruh-de Sitter state, analogous to black hole evaporation for a cosmological horizon. Central to our analysis in the static patch is the identification of a weakly gravitating region close to the past cosmological horizon; this is suggestive of a relation between observables at future infinity and inside the static patch. We find that in principle, while the meta-observer at future infinity naturally observes a pure state, the static patch observer requires the use of the island formula to reproduce a unitary Page curve. However, in practice, catastrophic backreaction occurs at the Page time, and neither observer will see unitary evaporation.

description: I progetti di formazione universitaria promossi dal Cisao sono rivolti ad arricchire l’istruzione superiore per favorire la sicurezza alimentare in alcuni paesi africani con un approccio olistico, arricchendo i curricula accademici con l’inclusione di diverse discipline (tecniche, economiche, sociali, politiche). I progetti in questa direzione negli ultimi anni sono stati: RUSSADE (Réseau des Universités Sahéliennes pour la Sécurité Alimentaire et la Durabilité Environnementale) e CLICHA (CLImate CHange in Agriculture). Entrambi hanno avuto successo, ma come mantenere le buone pratiche scaturite da queste esperienze? Anche se la formazione accademica interdisciplinare non è sufficiente, essa è comunque necessaria, e deve essere tenuta in conto nelle politiche nazionali e internazionali.

description: Climate change threatens the livelihood of small farmers all around the world, as in Guatemala and Honduras. We used long-term, downscaled climate information to understand the local impacts in two protected areas, the Multiple-Use Reserve of the Atitlán Basin in Guatemala and the National Park Pico Bonito in Honduras. We selected two main crops, conducting in-situ analysis to assess vulnerabilities to climate change. The aim was to elaborate an agro-climatic monitoring, to understand local responses and adaptive capacities, and to elaborate ad-hoc adaptation measures. The results stress the urgency of realizing this monitoring, because climate change effects in the region may be catastrophic, especially in the bordering areas of the Central American Dry Corridor.

description: Massive cosmological neutrinos suppress the Large-Scale Structure (LSS) in the Universe by smoothing the cosmic over-densities, and hence structure formation is delayed relative to that in the standard Lambda-Cold Dark Matter ($Λ$CDM) model. We characterize the merger and mass accretion history of dark matter halos with the halo formation time $a_{1/2}$, tree entropy $s$ and halo leaf function $\ell(X)$ and measure them using neutrino-involved N-body simulations. We show that a non-zero sum of neutrino masses $M_ν$ delays the $a_{1/2}$ for halos with virial mass between $10^{13} M_\odot$ and $3\times 10^{13} M_\odot$, whereas a non-zero neutrino asymmetry parameter $η^2$ has the opposite effect. While the mean tree entropy $\bar s$ does not depend significantly on either $M_ν$ or $η^2$, the halo leaf function does. Furthermore, the dependencies of $\ell$ on $M_ν$ and $η^2$ have significant evolution in redshift $z$, with the relative contributions of $M_ν$ and $η^2$ showing a sigmoid-like transition as a function of $z$ around $z \approx 0.6$. Together with the matter power spectrum, these halo parameters allow us to break the parameter degeneracy between $M_ν$ and $η^2$ so that they can both be constrained in principle.

description: We explore a phenomenological phase diagram for the magnetic helical state with 90$^{\circ}$ turn angle between neighboring spins in the external magnetic field. Such state is formed by the Eu spin layers in the superconducting iron arsenide RbEuFe$_{4}$As$_{4}$. The peculiarity of this spin configuration is that it is not realized in the standard Heisenberg model with bilinear exchange interactions. A minimum model allowing for such a state requires the biquadratic nearest-neighbor interaction term. In addition, in tetragonal materials the 90$^\circ$ helix state may be stabilized by the in-plane four-fold anisotropy term, which also fixes helix orientation with respect to the crystal lattice. Such a system has a very rich behavior in the external magnetic field. The magnetic field induces the metamagnetic transition to the double-periodic state with the moment angles ($α$, $α$, $-α$, $-α$) with respect to the field for the four subsequent spins. The transition field to this state from the deformed helix is determined by the strength of biquadratic interaction. The transition is second order for small biquadratic coupling and becomes first order when this coupling exceeds the critical value. On the other hand, the aligned state at high magnetic field becomes unstable with respect to formation of incommensurate fan state which transforms into the double-periodic state with decreasing magnetic field. The range of this incommensurate state near the saturation field is proportional to square of the biquadratic coupling. In addition, when the magnetic field is applied along one of four the equilibrium moment directions, the deformed helix state experience the first-order rotation transition at the field determined by the four-fold anisotropy. rotation transition at the field determined by the four-fold anisotropy.

description: Out of all existing frameworks for surgical workflow analysis in endoscopic videos, action triplet recognition stands out as the only one aiming to provide truly fine-grained and comprehensive information on surgical activities. This information, presented as combinations, is highly challenging to be accurately identified. Triplet components can be difficult to recognize individually; in this task, it requires not only performing recognition simultaneously for all three triplet components, but also correctly establishing the data association between them. To achieve this task, we introduce our new model, the Rendezvous (RDV), which recognizes triplets directly from surgical videos by leveraging attention at two different levels. We first introduce a new form of spatial attention to capture individual action triplet components in a scene; called Class Activation Guided Attention Mechanism (CAGAM). This technique focuses on the recognition of verbs and targets using activations resulting from instruments. To solve the association problem, our RDV model adds a new form of semantic attention inspired by Transformer networks; called Multi-Head of Mixed Attention (MHMA). This technique uses several cross and self attentions to effectively capture relationships between instruments, verbs, and targets. We also introduce CholecT50 - a dataset of 50 endoscopic videos in which every frame has been annotated with labels from 100 triplet classes. Our proposed RDV model significantly improves the triplet prediction mean AP by over 9% compared to the state-of-the-art methods on this dataset.
