Microscopic Vortex Velocity in the Inner Crust and Outer Core of Neutron Stars

description: Treatment of the vortex motion in the superfluids of the inner crust and the outer core of neutron stars is a key ingredient in modeling a number of pulsar phenomena, including glitches and magnetic field evolution. After recalculating the microscopic vortex velocity in the inner crust, we evaluate the velocity for the vortices in the outer core for the first time. The vortex motion between pinning sites is found to be substantially faster in the inner crust than in the outer core, $v_0^{\rm crust} \sim 10^{7}\mbox{\cms} \gg v_0^{\rm core} \sim 1\mbox{\cms}$. One immediate result is that vortex creep is always in the nonlinear regime in the outer core in contrast to the inner crust, where both nonlinear and linear regimes of vortex creep are possible. Other implications for pulsar glitches and magnetic field evolution are also presented.

description: Steep slope streams show large fluctuations of sediment discharge across several time scales. These fluctuations may be inherent to the internal dynamics of the sediment transport process. A probabilistic framework thus seems appropriate to analyze such a process. In this letter, we present an experimental study of bedload transport over a steep slope flume for small to moderate Shields numbers. The sampling technique allows the acquisition of high-resolution time series of the solid discharge. The resolved time scales range from $10^{-2}$s up to $10^{5}$s. We show that two distinct time scales can be observed in the probability density function for the waiting time between moving particles. We make the point that the separation of time scales is related to collective dynamics. Proper statistics of a Markov process including collective entrainment are derived. The separation of time scales is recovered theoretically for low entrainment rates.
Crisis management and regional security systems in Southeast Asia
Creators: name: Widyaningsih, Erlina
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: ASEAN
subject: Crisis management Southeast Asia
subject: National security Southeast Asia.

description: This thesis examines what the management of crises can reveal about the type and the nature of regional security systems in Southeast Asia. It seeks to evaluate whether or not crisis management conducted by the Association of Southeast Asia Nations (ASEAN) member countries helps to provide ways of conceptualising regional security systems, namely a security community, a balance of power, or a classical concert of powers. While there is a growing body of literature examining the relevance of the first two concepts for explaining the type of regional security system in Southeast Asia, there is a very limited literature that explores whether or not a regional classical concert of powers can provide a relevant explanation. Given that historically the notion of crisis management has been a useful indicator that sheds light the international system, this thesis specifically examines a possible connection between crisis management and security systems in Southeast Asia. The study approaches this task by investigating three case studies: the 1978-1991 Cambodian crisis, the 1999-2002 East Timor crisis and the 2008-2010 Cyclone Nargis crisis. The thesis has two key arguments. First, whether or not the three conceptualisations of regional security systems examined and their variations in the thesis have explanatory value depends on at least two conditions, namely the phase of the crisis - whether it is in an escalating, acute, or de-escalating period - and the nature of the crisis - whether it is traditional or non traditional. Second, the thesis argues that under the same conditions, there are times when the regional security system can best be conceptualised as a 'quasi concert of regional leading powers'. The introduction of this concept contributes to ongoing debate within academic literature about the nature of the regional security systems that operate in Southeast Asia. These two arguments also have additional implications for policy development in Southeast Asia. The first is that the management of crises in Southeast Asia needs to be reviewed and ways found to establish more robust policies and structures for managing crises. ASEAN member states need to set up formal dispute settlement and crisis management mechanisms and the role of the Secretary-General of ASEAN should be strengthened with monitoring and evaluation. The second policy direction that the findings point to is that the burdens of the crisis management should be shared by the regional leading powers and all ASEAN member states. Regional security requires dedicated effort by every Southeast Asian country.

description: The pace of technological innovations has disrupted the traditional face-to-face instructional approach to education, opening alternative possibilities in distance learning. This rapid uptake has not isolated religious instructions. Over the last five decades, Steubing (1999) identified spiritual formation of theological students as one major theme among theological educators. In this short essay, I question the objection to alternative approaches to spiritual formation.

Radiative heat transfer as a Landauer-Büttiker problem

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We study the radiative heat transfer between two semi-infinite half-spaces, bounded by conductive surfaces in contact with vacuum. This setup is interpreted as a four-terminal mesoscopic transport problem. The slabs and interfaces are viewed as bosonic reservoirs, coupled perfectly to a scattering center consisting of the two interfaces and vacuum. Using Rytov's fluctuational electrodynamics and assuming Kirchhoff's circuital law, we calculate the heat flow in each bath. This allows for explicit evaluation of a conductance matrix, from which one readily verifies Büttiker symmetry. Thus, radiative heat transfer in layered media with conductive interfaces becomes a Landauer-Büttiker transport problem.

description: In the last 10 years, since its last giant outburst in 2006, regular X-ray outbursts (type I) were detected every periastron passage in the Be X-ray binary EXO 2030+375. Recently, however, it was reported that the source started to show a peculiar behavior: its X-ray flux decreased significantly and type I outbursts were missed in several cases. At the same time, the spin frequency of the neutron star, which had been increasing steadily since the end of the 2006 giant outburst, reached a plateau. Very recent observations indicate that the source is now starting to spin down. These observed phenomena have a striking similarity with those which took place 20 years ago, just before the source displayed a sudden orbital phase shift of the outburst peak (1995). This historical event occurred at the time exactly between the two giant outbursts (1985 and 2006). These phenomena suggest the system to have an underlying periodicity of 10.5 years between orbital phase shifts and/or giant outbursts. The suggested periodicity may reflect some long-period dynamics in the circumstellar disk of the Be star, due, e.g., to the Kozai-Lidov effect. A model generating such a periodic change of the Be disk, namely Kozai-Lidov oscillations in the Be disk, is discussed. If this behavior is really periodical, another phase shift of the X-ray outburst peak is predicted to occur around 2016 December.

Subjects: Società Patriotica; 18h Century; botany; Milan; Lombardy

description: The essay, based on material that is for the most part unpublished, conserved in the Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense and in the Archivio di Stato in Milan, re-constructs, through the events of the Società Patriotica founded by Maria Teresa in 1776 in Milan, the characteristics, modalities and results in the activity going on inside the society in the transferring of plants sector, in the last decades of the 18th Century. It opens with an analysis of the long and the painstaking work of the naturalists and the illuminated aristocrats gathered in the society, that brought to life a new kind of transferring, based no longer, as in previous centuries, on the occasional initiative of a few persons, but on a rational and programmed piece of work that even today constitutes, though in a widely different way, the point of departure for the scientists that operate in this sector. It proceeds then in examining the importance and at the same time the difficulties, the uncertainties, the waiting times, the delays and the frequent negative outcomes in the transferring of plants and the informations necessary for the experiments made on them in botanical gardens before being cultivated in the open field. Finally it concludes with the specific analysis of certain plants transferred successfully, that today, are still part of the Lombard landscape, such as the olive tree, the hard wheat, the potato.

Surface Brightness Fluctuations of Nearby Dwarf Galaxies in the Roman Era
Creators: name: Li, Jiaxuan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Dwarf galaxies are powerful probes of both dark matter and baryonic physics, but obtaining their distances and understanding their properties is challenging due to their faint nature. We explore the potential of the surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) method to accurately measure distances to classical dwarf galaxies within 60 Mpc and characterize their stellar populations using the data from the Roman High Latitude Survey (HLS) and the Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). We demonstrate that a combination of optical and near-infrared colors is required to greatly reduce the scatter in the SBF-color relation, enabling precise distance measurements in infrared. We further perform realistic image simulations to understand the SBF distance limit and various systematics. Based on these developments, we predict that Roman HLS will discover and characterize several thousands of classical dwarfs with $10^{5.5} < M_\star < 10^{9} M_\odot$ across all environments. These samples will advance our understanding of dwarf galaxies themselves and their connection to dark matter halos.

description: We investigate combined effects of nontrivial topology, induced by a cosmic string, and boundaries on the fermionic condensate and the vacuum expectation value (VEV) of the energy-momentum tensor for a massive fermionic field. As geometry of boundaries we consider two plates perpendicular to the string axis on which the field is constrained by the MIT bag boundary condition. By using the Abel-Plana type summation formula, the VEVs in the region between the plates are decomposed into the boundary-free and boundary-induced contributions for general case of the planar angle deficit. The boundary-induced parts in both the fermionic condensate and the energy-momentum tensor vanish on the cosmic string. Fermionic condensate is positive near the string and negative al large distances, whereas the vacuum energy density is negative everywhere. The radial stress is equal to the energy density. For a massless field, the boundary-induced contribution in the VEV of the energy-momentum tensor is different from zero in the region between the plates only and it does not depend on the coordinate along the string axis. In the region between the plates and at large distances from the string, the decay of the topological part is exponential for both massive and massless fields. This behavior is in contrast to that for the VEV of the energy-momentum tensor in the boundary-free geometry with the power law decay for a massless field. The vacuum pressure on the plates is inhomogeneous and vanishes at the location of the string. The corresponding Casimir forces are attractive.

MUSE's look at the binary population content of massive clusters
Creators: name: Saracino, Sara
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Binary systems are important constituents of massive star clusters. Over the years they have been invoked to play an important role in the origin of several phenomena, such as the bimodal main-sequence turn-offs, and to lead to the formation of exotic objects such as low-mass X-ray binaries, Be stars etc. A detailed study of the orbital properties of binaries in clusters is crucial for understanding the frequency of interactions or mergers between the components, and for predicting how many binary interaction products are expected. However, only recently such observational studies have become possible, thanks to the advent of integral field spectrographs (e.g. VLT/MUSE) monitoring the inner regions of clusters over time. To bridge the gap between very young clusters (e.g. 30 Dor, few Myrs) and old globulars (e.g. NGC 3201, >10 Gyr), we are conducting a MUSE spectroscopic campaign to study how the orbital properties of binaries evolve in clusters of different ages, and to search for binary interaction products. For NGC 1850, a ~100 Myr old cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud we have 16 MUSE observations, covering a time baseline of more than 2 years. I will present the results of this study, discussing the orbital properties of the constrained binaries in NGC 1850 and highlighting objects that show evidence of massive companions. Such studies provide important constraints for modelling massive clusters, with more robust predictions on the binary population content.

description: We present first measurable predictions for electromagnetic (two-photon) double scattering production of two positron-electron pairs in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions at LHC. Measureable cross sections are obtained with realistic cuts on electron/positron (pseudo)rapidities and transverse momenta for the ALICE and ATLAS or CMS experiments. The predictions for total and differential cross sections are presented. We show also two-dimensional distributions in rapidities of the opposite-sign (from the same or different subcollisions) and of the same-sign ($e^+ e^+$ or $e^- e^-$) electrons and in rapidity distance between them. Expected number of events are presented and discussed. Our calculations strongly suggest that relevant measurements with the help of ATLAS, CMS and ALICE detectors are possible in a near future.

description: We study the effect of electronic Coulomb correlations on the vacancy formation energy in paramagnetic alpha-Fe within ab initio dynamical mean-field theory. The calculated value for the formation energy is substantially lower than in standard density-functional calculations and in excellent agreement with experiment. The reduction is caused by an enhancement of electronic correlations at the nearest neighbors of the vacancy. This effect is explained by subtle changes in the corresponding spectral function of the d-electrons. The local lattice relaxations around the vacancy are substantially increased by many-body effects.

description: We consider a proper propositional quantum logic and show that it has multiple disjoint lattice models, only one of which is an orthomodular lattice (algebra) underlying Hilbert (quantum) space. We give an equivalent proof for the classical logic which turns out to have disjoint distributive and non-distributive ortholattices as its models. In particular, we prove that both classical and quantum logics are sound and complete with respect to each of these lattices. We also show that there is one common non-orthomodular lattice that is a model of both quantum and classical logics. In technical terms, that enables us to run the same classical logic on both a digital (standard, two subset, 0-1 bit) computer and on a non-digital (say, a six subset) computer (with appropriate chips and circuits). With quantum logic, the same six element common lattice can serve us as a benchmark for an efficient evaluation of equations of bigger lattice models or theorems of the logic.

description: Companies have undergone transformations in how they operate and promote their products and services, whether online and/or offline. As a result of this evolution, the tourism sector was not left out and consequently had to adapt to differentiate itself and ensure a competitive advantage. Thus, new innovative platforms emerged, such as Booking and TripAdvisor, that aggregate several services that tourism consumers increasingly use to plan and make their accommodation reservations. With the emergence of these platforms and the increased use by consumers, Consumer Generated Media (CGM) has emerged in parallel, growing exponentially and exerting a significant influence on booking tourist accommodation. The present research is based on a quantitative analysis utilizing a questionnaire survey based on the Trust Building Model. This model is divided into three main categories: website-based, company-based, and customer-based antecedents. Thus, we identified antecedents that influence online trust in CGM on the Booking platform and studied whether this trust affects the behavior of the travel consumer on the same platform, causing him to adopt the recommendations and practice eWOM. It was concluded that perceived source credibility, information quality, perceived website quality, user satisfaction with previous experiences, and user experience and knowledge are the antecedents that affect online trust in CGM.

description: The Internet and social media have been gaining increasing visibility in the business world. In the last decade, this digital transformation has led to a change in the behaviour of marketing professionals and managers around the world. Although there are still some fears about the use of social media in the B2B context, it is unquestionable that these social media have proven to be essential in outlining a competitive strategy. The purpose of our study is to identify the main drivers of social media adoption in B2B markets. Based on a sample of 223 workers from B2B companies, a structural equations model was used to test the relationships among the variables learning, memorability, absence of errors, usability, functionality, social influence, satisfaction, trust, and social media adoption. The results showed that the variables learning, memorability and absence of errors are key determinants of social media usability. In turn, social influence and usability are crucial for trust in social media. In turn, usability and trust are fundamental to social media usefulness. Satisfaction with social media is achieved through greater ease of use, usefulness, and trust. Finally, when social media users are satisfied, are subject to social influence, and judge social media to be usefulness, they tend to adopt social media.

description: Entscheidungen, die eine Hochschulleitung zu treffen hat, gleichen hin und wieder einem Drahtseilakt. Das ist beispielsweise der Fall, wenn es um die Frage geht, welche Rolle der Politik auf einem Universitätscampus zukommen soll, oder – konkreter – wenn es um die Frage geht, ob und worüber Politiker an einer Universität sprechen dürfen. Mit Blick auf kontrovers begleitete Veranstaltungen in der jüngeren Vergangenheit streitet der Beitrag für Universitäten als prädestinierte Orte des Austausches von kontroversen Meinungen – auch und insbesondere in Zeiten zunehmender Polarisierung.

description: Hand gesture is one of the most important means of touchless communication between human and machines. There is a great interest for commanding electronic equipment in surgery rooms by hand gesture for reducing the time of surgery and the potential for infection. There are challenges in implementation of a hand gesture recognition system. It has to fulfill requirements such as high accuracy and fast response. In this paper we introduce a system of hand gesture recognition based on a deep learning approach. Deep learning is known as an accurate detection model, but its high complexity prevents it from being fabricated as an embedded system. To cope with this problem, we applied some changes in the structure of our work to achieve low complexity. As a result, the proposed method could be implemented on a naive embedded system. Our experiments show that the proposed system results in higher accuracy while having less complexity in comparison with the existing comparable methods.
An Analytical Study on the Synchronization of Strange Non-Chaotic Attractors

description: In this paper we present an analytical study on the synchronization dynamics observed in unidirectionally-coupled quasiperiodically-forced systems that exhibit Strange Non-chaotic Attractors (SNA) in their dynamics. The SNA dynamics observed in the uncoupled system is studied analytically through phase portraits and poincare maps. A difference system is obtained by coupling the state equations of similar piecewise linear regions of the drive and response systems. The mechanism of synchronization of the coupled system is realized through the bifurcation of the eigenvalues in one of the piecewise linear regions of the difference system. The analytical solutions obtained for the normalized state equations in each piecewise linear region of the difference system has been used to explain the synchronization dynamics though phase portraits and timeseries analysis. The stability of the synchronized state is confirmed through the Master Stability Function. An explicit analytical solution explaining the synchronization of SNAs is reported in the literature for the first time.

description: Optical whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonators are a powerful and versatile tool used in many branches of science. Fine tuning of the central frequency and line width of individual resonances is however desirable in a number of applications including frequency conversion, optical communications and efficient light-matter coupling. To this end we present a detailed theoretical analysis of dielectric tuning of WGMs supported in axisymmetric resonators. Using the Bethe-Schwinger equation and adopting an angular spectrum field representation we study the resonance shift and mode broadening of high $Q$ WGMs when a planar dielectric substrate is brought close to the resonator. Particular focus is given to use of a uniaxial substrate with an arbitrarily aligned optic axis. Competing red and blue resonance shifts ($\sim 30$ MHz), deriving from generation of a near field material polarisation and back action from the radiation continuum respectively, are found. Anomalous resonance shifts can hence be observed depending on the substrate material, whereas mode broadening on the order of $\sim 50$ MHz can also be simply realised. Furthermore, polarisation selective coupling with extinction ratios of $> 10^4$ can be achieved when the resonator and substrate are of the same composition and their optic axes are chosen correctly. Double refraction and properties of out-coupled beams are also discussed.
Trends in Biogas Technologies

description: The presentation is meant to give a short overview on the state of the development of biogas technologies with special emphasis on the situation in Germany. Although the share of biogas based electrical energy among other types of renewable energies has become smaller, it still plays an important role for the compensation of fluctuating alternative energies and for the recycling of important substances like fertilisers as well. The growth of biogas capacities is limited due to the limited abundance of substrates. But newer technologies allow the biochemical production of biogas from carbon dioxide and hydrogen without any organic matter. Most probably, such processes will have the potential to change the common practise of biogas upgrading at least.

description: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on tourism has reduced the flow of visitors to cities, paralyzing what was a growing sector in recent years. Currently, cities urgently need to attract tourists to their territories. In this dissemination of cities, the role of citizens residing in cities cannot be neglected since, through their word of mouth (WOM), they promote their cities' experiences, infrastructure, and atmosphere. However, the WOM of cities differs between men and women. In this context, our study aimed to explore the factors that influence WOM by men and women residing in cities, identifying that infrastructure, atmosphere, and perceived psychological well-being play an essential role in this influence. Thus, this cross-sectional study obtained data through a questionnaire that resulted in a sample consisting of 428 individuals. The hypothesis test was carried out using SMART PLS software and identified that infrastructure, atmosphere, and perceived psychological well-being positively influence citizens' WOM. In this context, our research contributes to those responsible for cities to develop actions, with their citizens, with the aim of disseminating their heritage and encouraging tourists to visit the territories through them.
