description: Observations of the Milky Way's low-$α$ disk show that at fixed metallicity, [Fe/H], several element abundance, [X/Fe], correlate with age, with unique slopes and small scatters around the age-[X/Fe] relations. In this study, we turn to simulations to explore the age-[X/Fe] relations for the elements C, N, O, Mg, Si, S, and Ca that are traced in a FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulation of a Milky Way-like galaxy, m12i, and understand what physical conditions give rise to the observed age-[X/Fe] trends. We first explore the distributions of mono-age populations in their birth and current locations, [Fe/H], and [X/Fe], and find evidence for inside-out radial growth for stars with ages < 7 Gyr. We then examine the age-[X/Fe] relations across m12i's disk and find that the direction of the trends agree with observations, apart from C, O, and Ca, with remarkably small intrinsic scatters, $σ_{int}$ (0.01-0.04 dex). This $σ_{int}$ measured in the simulations is also metallicity-dependent, with $σ_{int}$ $\approx$ 0.025 dex at [Fe/H]=-0.25 dex versus $σ_{int}$ $\approx$ 0.015 dex at [Fe/H]=0 dex, and a similar metallicity dependence is seen in the GALAH survey for the elements in common. Additionally, we find that $σ_{int}$ is higher in the inner galaxy, where stars are older and formed in less chemically-homogeneous environments. The age-[X/Fe] relations and the small scatter around them indicate that simulations capture similar chemical enrichment variance as observed in the Milky Way, arising from stars sharing similar element abundances at a given birth place and time.

description: A novel neutron spin resonance technique is presented based on the well-know neutron spin echo method. In a first proof-of-principle measurement using a monochromatic neutron beam, it is demonstrated that relative velocity changes of down to a precision of $4 \times 10^{-7}$ can be resolved, corresponding to an energy resolution of better than 3~neV. Currently, the sensitivity is only limited by counting statistics and not by systematic effects. An improvement by another two orders of magnitude can be achieved with a dedicated setup, allowing for energy resolutions in the 10~peV regime. The new technique is ideally suited for investigations in the field of precision fundamental neutron physics, but will also be beneficial in scattering applications.

description: We demonstrate particle clustering on macroscopic scales in a coupled nonequilibrium system where two species of particles are advected by a fluctuating landscape and modify the landscape in the process. The phase diagram generated by varying the particle-landscape coupling, valid for all particle density and in both one and two dimensions, shows novel nonequilibrium phases. While particle species are completely phase separated, the landscape develops macroscopically ordered regions coexisting with a disordered region, resulting in coarsening and steady state dynamics on time scales which grow algebraically with size, not seen earlier in systems with pure domains.

description: We study in this article a triangular lattice with Heisenberg spins interacting with each other via an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction $J$ and a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction $D$, between nearest-neighbors (NN). We consider two cases: the first case in which the DM vector $\mathbf D$ is perpendicular to the lattice plane and the second case where it lies in the plane. A magnetic field $H$ is applied perpendicular to the spin plane in both cases. The ground state (GS) of this system is calculated by minimizing the energy using the very fast steepest-descent method in the two cases. In the case of perpendicular $\mathbf D$ with $H=0$, the GS is periodic. We analytically determine the GS configuration which is characterized by two well-defined angles. We calculate the spin-wave spectrum in this case which shows that for small wave vectors the spin waves are forbidden in the system. When $H\neq 0$, the GS in the perpendicular $\mathbf D$ case shows no skyrmions. However, in the case of in-plane $\mathbf D$ with $H\neq 0$, we find a crystal of skyrmions at $T=0$ composed of three interpenetrating skyrmion sublattice crystals, in agreement with low-$T$ spin textures found in earlier works. We show by Monte Carlo simulations that this skyrmion crystal is stable at finite temperatures below a critical temperature.

description: In e-healthcare record systems (EHRS), attribute-based encryption (ABE) appears as a natural way to achieve fine-grained access control on health records. Some proposals exploit key-policy ABE (KP-ABE) to protect privacy in such a way that all users are associated with specific access policies and only the ciphertexts matching the users' access policies can be decrypted. An issue with KP-ABE is that it requires an a priori formulation of access policies during key generation, which is not always practicable in EHRS because the policies to access health records are sometimes determined after key generation. In this paper, we revisit KPABE and propose a dynamic ABE paradigm, referred to as access policy redefinable ABE (APR-ABE). To address the above issue, APR-ABE allows users to redefine their access policies and delegate keys for the redefined ones; hence a priori precise policies are no longer mandatory. We construct an APR-ABE scheme with short ciphertexts and prove its full security in the standard model under several static assumptions.

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An importance sampling method based on Generalized Feynman-Kac method has been used to calculate the mean values of quantum observables from quantum correlation functions for many body systems both at zero and finite temperature. Specifically, the expectation of $\langle r_i^n\rangle$, $\langle r_{ij}^n\rangle$, $\langle r_i^{-n}\rangle$ and $\langle r_{ij}^{-n}\rangle$ for the ground state of the lithium and beryllium and the density matrix, the partition function, the internal energy and the specific heat of a system of quantum harmonic oscillators are computed, in good agreement with the best nonrelativistic values for these quantities. Although the initial results are encouarging, more experimentation will be needed to improve the other existing numerical results beyond chemical accuracies specially for the last two properties for lithium and beryllium. Also more work needs to be done to improve the trial functions for finite temperature calculations.

description: Numerous loss mechanisms can limit coherence and scalability of planar and 3D-based circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) devices, particularly due to their packaging. The low loss and natural isolation of 3D enclosures make them good candidates for coherent scaling. We introduce a coaxial transmission line device architecture with coherence similar to traditional 3D cQED systems. Measurements demonstrate well-controlled external and on-chip couplings, a spectrum absent of cross-talk or spurious modes, and excellent resonator and qubit lifetimes. We integrate a resonator-qubit system in this architecture with a seamless 3D cavity, and separately pattern a qubit, readout resonator, Purcell filter and high-Q stripline resonator on a single chip. Device coherence and its ease of integration make this a promising tool for complex experiments.

description: Imaging distributions of radioactive sources plays a substantial role in nuclear medicine as well as in monitoring nuclear waste and its deposit. Coded Aperture Imaging has been proposed as an alternative to parallel or pinhole collimators, but requires image reconstruction as an extra step. Multiple reconstruction methods with varying run time and computational complexity have been proposed. Yet, no quantitative comparison between the different reconstruction methods has been carried out so far. This paper focuses on a comparison based on three sets of hot-rod phantom images captured with an experimental Gamma-camera consisting of a Tungsten-based MURA mask with a 2mm thick 256x256 pixelated CdTe semiconductor detector coupled to a Timepix readout circuit. Analytical reconstruction methods, MURA Decoding, Wiener Filter and a convolutional Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization (MLEM) algorithm were compared to data-driven Convolutional Encoder-Decoder (CED) approaches. The comparison is based on the contrast-to-noise ratio as it has been previously used to assess reconstruction quality. For the given set-up, MURA Decoding, the most commonly used CAI reconstruction method, provides robust reconstructions despite the assumption of a linear model. For single image reconstruction, however, MLEM performed best among analytical reconstruction methods, but took the longest with an average of 13s run time. The fastest reconstruction method is the Wiener Filter with 67ms and mediocre quality. The CED with a specifically tailored training set was able to succeed the most commonly used MURA decoding on average by a factor between 1.37 and 2.60 and a run time of around 300ms.

description: In two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) the building blocks are given by chiral CFTs, i.e.~CFTs on the unit circle (compactified light-ray). They are generated by quantum fields depending on one light-ray coordinate only. There are two mathematical formulations of chiral CFT, the one based on vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and the one based on conformal nets. We describe some recent results which, for first time, gives a general construction of conformal nets from (unitary) VOAs.

description: Evanescent waves are central to many technologies such as near-field imaging that beats the diffraction limit and plasmonic devices. Frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR) is an experimental method commonly used to study evanescent waves. In this paper, we shape the incident beam of the FTIR process with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer and measure light transmittance while varying the path length difference and interferometric visibility. Our results show that the transmittance varies with the path length difference and, thus, the intensity distribution of the shaped beam. Experiment and finite element method simulation produce results that agree. We also show, through simulations, that the transmittance can be controlled via other methods of beam shaping. Our work provides a proof-of-concept demonstration of the coherent control of the FTIR process, which could lead to advancements in numerous applications of evanescent waves and FTIR.

Exploring quantum interference in heteroatom-substituted graphene-like molecules

description: If design principles for controlling quantum interference in single molecules could be elucidated and verified, then this will lay the foundations for exploiting such effects in nanoscale devices and thin-film materials.When the core of a graphene-like polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) is weakly coupled to external electrodes by atoms i and j, the single-molecule electrical conductance sigma-ij depends on the choice of connecting atoms i,j. Furthermore, conductance ratios sigma-ij/sigma-lm corresponding to different connectivities i,j and l,m are determined by quantum interference within the PAH core. In this paper, we examine how such conductance ratios change when one of the carbon atoms within the "parent" PAH core is replaced by a heteroatom to yield a "daughter" molecule. For bipartite parental cores, in which odd-numbered sites are connected to even-numbered sites only, the effect of heteroatom substitution onto an odd-numbered site is summarized by the following qualitative rules: (a) When i and j are odd, both parent and daughter have low conductances (b) When i is odd and j is even, or vice versa both parent and daughter have high conductances (c) When i,j are both even, the parent has a low conductance and the daughter a high conductance. These rules are verified by comparison with density-functional calculations on naphthalene, anthracene, pyrene and anthanthrene cores connected via two different anchor groups to gold electrodes.

description: We analyze the galactic cosmic ray (GCR) density and its spatial gradient in Forbush Decreases (FDs) observed with the Global Muon Detector Network (GMDN) and neutron monitors (NMs). By superposing the GCR density and density gradient observed in FDs following 45 interplanetary shocks (IP-shocks), each associated with an identified eruption on the sun, we infer the average spatial distribution of GCRs behind IP-shocks. We find two distinct modulations of GCR density in FDs, one in the magnetic sheath and the other in the coronal mass ejection (CME) behind the sheath. The density modulation in the sheath is dominant in the western flank of the shock, while the modulation in the CME ejecta stands out in the eastern flank. This east-west asymmetry is more prominent in GMDN data responding to $\sim$ 60 GV GCRs than in NM data responding to $\sim$ 10 GV GCRs, because of softer rigidity spectrum of the modulation in the CME ejecta than in the sheath. The GSE-y component of the density gradient, $G_y$ shows a negative (positive) enhancement in FDs caused by the eastern (western) eruptions, while $G_z$ shows a negative (positive) enhancement in FDs by the northern (southern) eruptions. This implies the GCR density minimum being located behind the central flank of IP-shock and propagating radially outward from location of the solar eruption. We also confirmed the average $G_z$ changing its sign above and below the heliospheric current sheet, in accord with the prediction of the drift model for the large-scale GCR transport in the heliosphere.

description: The great success of point defects and dopants in semiconductors for quantum information processing has invigorated a search for molecules with analogous properties. Flexibility and tunability of desired properties in a large chemical space have great advantages over solid-state systems. The properties analogous to point defects were demonstrated in Cr(IV)-based molecular family, Cr(IV)(aryl)$_4$, where the electronic spin states were optically initialized, read out, and controlled. Despite this kick-start, there is still a large room for enhancing properties crucial for molecular qubits. Here we provide computational insights into key properties of the Cr(IV)-based molecules aimed at assisting chemical design of efficient molecular qubits. Using the multireference ab-initio methods, we investigate the electronic states of Cr(IV)(aryl)$_4$ molecules with slightly different ligands, showing that the zero-phonon line energies agree with the experiment, and that the excited spin-triplet and spin-singlet states are highly sensitive to small chemical perturbations. By adding spin-orbit interaction, we find that the sign of the uniaxial zero-field splitting (ZFS) parameter is negative for all considered molecules, and discuss optically-induced spin initialization via non-radiative intersystem crossing. We quantify (super)hyperfine coupling to the $^{53}$Cr nuclear spin and to the $^{13}$C and $^1$H nuclear spins, and we discuss electron spin decoherence. We show that the splitting or broadening of the electronic spin sub-levels due to superhyperfine interaction with $^1$H nuclear spins decreases by an order of magnitude when the molecules have a substantial transverse ZFS parameter.

description: We have performed a comprehensive analysis of the type D group $D^{(1)}_{9n, 3n}$ as flavor symmetry and the generalized CP symmetry. All possible residual symmetries and their consequences for the prediction of the mixing parameters are studied. We find that only one type of mixing pattern is able to accommodate the measured values of the mixing angles in both "direct" and "variant of semidirect" approaches, and four types of mixing patterns are phenomenologically viable in the "semidirect" approach. The admissible values of the mixing angles as well as CP violating phases are studied in detail for each case. It is remarkable that the first two smallest $D^{(1)}_{9n,3n}$ groups with $n=1, 2$ can fits the experimental data very well. The phenomenological predictions for neutrinoless double beta decay are discussed.

description: In macroeconomics, an emerging discussion of alternative monetary systems addresses the dimensions of systemic risk in advanced financial systems. Monetary regime changes with the aim of achieving a more sustainable financial system have already been discussed in several European parliaments and were the subject of a referendum in Switzerland. However, their effectiveness and efficacy concerning macro-financial stability are not well-known. This paper introduces a macroeconomic agent-based model (MABM) in a novel simulation environment to simulate the current monetary system, which may serve as a basis to implement and analyze monetary regime shifts. In this context, the monetary system affects the lending potential of banks and might impact the dynamics of financial crises. MABMs are predestined to replicate emergent financial crisis dynamics, analyze institutional changes within a financial system, and thus measure macro-financial stability. The used simulation environment makes the model more accessible and facilitates exploring the impact of different hypotheses and mechanisms in a less complex way. The model replicates a wide range of stylized economic facts, including simplifying assumptions to reduce model complexity.

description: The long-period, highly eccentric O-star binary 9 Sgr, known for its non-thermal radio emission and its relatively bright X-ray emission, went through its periastron in 2013. Such an event can be used to observationally test the predictions of the theory of colliding stellar winds over a broad range of wavelengths. We have conducted a multi-wavelength monitoring campaign of 9 Sgr around the 2013 periastron. In this paper, we focus on X-ray observations and optical spectroscopy. The optical spectra allow us to revisit the orbital solution of 9 Sgr and to refine its orbital period to 9.1 years. The X-ray flux is maximum at periastron over all energy bands, but with clear differences as a function of energy. The largest variations are observed at energies above 2 keV, whilst the spectrum in the soft band (0.5 - 1.0 keV) remains mostly unchanged indicating that it arises far from the collision region, in the inner winds of the individual components. The level of the hard emission at periastron clearly deviates from the 1/r relation expected for an adiabatic wind interaction zone, whilst this relation seems to hold at the other phases covered by our observations. The spectra taken at phase 0.946 reveal a clear Fe xxv line at 6.7 keV, but no such line is detected at periastron (phi = 0.000) although a simple model predicts a strong line that should be easily visible in the data. The peculiarities of the X-ray spectrum of 9 Sgr could reflect the impact of radiative inhibition as well as a phase-dependent efficiency of particle acceleration on the shock properties.

description: Two-sample tests for multivariate data and non-Euclidean data are widely used in many fields. Parametric tests are mostly restrained to certain types of data that meets the assumptions of the parametric models. In this paper, we study a nonparametric testing procedure that utilizes graphs representing the similarity among observations. It can be applied to any data types as long as an informative similarity measure on the sample space can be defined. The classic test based on a similarity graph has a problem when the two sample sizes are different. We solve the problem by applying appropriate weights to different components of the classic test statistic. The new test exhibits substantial power gains in simulation studies. Its asymptotic permutation null distribution is derived and shown to work well under finite samples, facilitating its application to large datasets. The new test is illustrated through an analysis on a real dataset of network data.

description: Autonomous intersection management has the potential to reduce road traffic congestion and energy consumption. To realize this potential, efficient algorithms are needed. However, most existing studies locally optimize one intersection at a time, and this can cause negative externalities on the traffic network as a whole. Here, we focus on coordinating multiple intersections, and formulate the problem as a distributed constraint optimisation problem (DCOP). We consider three utility design approaches that trade off efficiency and fairness. Our polynomial-time algorithm for coordinating multiple intersections reduces the traffic delay by about 41% compared to independent single intersection management approaches.

description: The recently updated measurement of the $W$-boson mass by the CDF collaboration exhibits a $7σ$ deviation from the SM expectation, which may imply a sign of new physics beyond the SM. The observed discrepancy could be explained by new fermions that carry the electroweak gauge charges and affect the vacuum polarization of gauge bosons. Notably, if the new fermions also have the same quantum numbers as of the SM quarks, they can mix with the latter and thus modify the penguin diagrams governing the $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ transitions. Therefore, the $W$-boson mass shift could be related to the $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ anomalies observed by the LHCb collaboration during the past few years. To investigate this possibility, we consider in this paper a model containing a vector-like top partner gauged under a new $U(1)^\prime$ symmetry. It is found that the latest CDF $m_W$ measurement and the $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ anomalies can be simultaneously accommodated at $2σ$ level.

description: One of the major goals of the field of Milky Way dynamics is to recover the gravitational potential field. Mapping the potential would allow us to determine the spatial distribution of matter - both baryonic and dark - throughout the Galaxy. We present a novel method for determining the gravitational field from a snapshot of the phase-space positions of stars, based only on minimal physical assumptions, which makes use of recently developed tools from the field of deep learning. We first train a normalizing flow on a sample of observed six-dimensional phase-space coordinates of stars, obtaining a smooth, differentiable approximation of the distribution function. Using the Collisionless Boltzmann Equation, we then find the gravitational potential - represented by a feed-forward neural network - that renders this distribution function stationary. This method, which we term "Deep Potential," is more flexible than previous parametric methods, which fit restricted classes of analytic models of the distribution function and potential to the data. We demonstrate Deep Potential on mock datasets, and demonstrate its robustness under various non-ideal conditions. Deep Potential is a promising approach to mapping the density of the Milky Way and other stellar systems, using rich datasets of stellar positions and kinematics now being provided by Gaia and ground-based spectroscopic surveys.

description: Objective: To develop a rule-based algorithm that detects temporal information of clinical events during pregnancy for women with COVID-19 by inferring gestational weeks and delivery dates from Electronic Health Records (EHR) from the National COVID Cohort Collaborate (N3C). Materials and Methods: The EHR are normalized by the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) Clinical Data Model (CDM). EHR phenotyping resulted in 270,897 pregnant women (2018-06-01 to 2021-05-31). We developed a rule-based algorithm and performed a multi-level evaluation to test content validity and clinical validity of the algorithm; and extreme value analysis for individuals with <150 or >300 days of gestation. Results: The algorithm identified 296,194 pregnancies (16,659 COVID-19 174 and 744 without COVID-19 peri-pandemic) in 270,897 pregnant women. For inferring gestational age, 95% cases (n=40) have moderate-high accuracy (Cohen Kappa = 0.62); 100% cases (n=40) have moderate-high granularity of temporal information (Cohen Kappa = 1). For inferring delivery dates, the accuracy is 100% (Cohen Kappa = 1). Accuracy of gestational age detection for extreme length of gestation is 93.3% (Cohen Kappa = 1). Mothers with COVID-19 showed higher prevalence in obesity (35.1% vs. 29.5%), diabetes (17.8% vs. 17.0%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (0.2% vs. 0.1%), respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) (1.8% vs. 0.2%). Discussion: We explored the characteristics of pregnant women by different timing of COVID-19 with our algorithm: the first to infer temporal information from complete antenatal care and detect the timing of SARS-CoV-2 infection for pregnant women using N3C. Conclusion: The algorithm shows excellent validity in inferring gestational age and delivery dates, which supports national EHR cohorts on N3C studying the impact of COVID-19 on pregnancy.

description: Deux études multicentriques de surveillance environnementale aux antinéoplasiques dans les établissements de santé québécois ont été réalisées par l’Unité de recherche en pratique pharmaceutique en 2008 et 2012. L’étude la plus récente a montré que la concentration d’antinéoplasiques mesurée sur les surfaces avait diminué de façon importante. Dans la foulée de ce programme de surveillance, des mesures supplémentaires ont été réalisées dans la clinique externe d’oncologie de notre centre. Deux des douze prélèvements réalisés sur les comptoirs de la clinique externe se sont avérés positifs au méthotrexate. Aucun prélèvement positif n’a été obtenu pour le cyclophosphamide ou l’ifosfamide.

Development of an Immunosuppression Free Cellular Transplantation Platform

NFRF Exploration 2020: While the global incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) continues to rise, it is now clear that transplantation of human pancreatic islets of Langerhans, into the patients’ liver, can successfully restore glycemic control.  Despite marked progress in clinical islet transplantation, transplant approaches are limited to those with life-threatening hypoglycemic unawareness. The major obstacles that hinder the more inclusive use of beta cell replacement with human islets are the need for life-long toxic immunosuppression to overcome the fierce immune attack that occurs after transplantation and lack of sufficient human donors. The objective of this application seeks to test a highly innovative and multidisciplinary approach to tackle these vital roadblocks that plague the broad-spectrum application of this curative beta cell-based therapy.

Our research approach will attenuate the immunological and organ donor limitations associated beta cell transplantation. Our aim is to develop and test a cutting-edge minimally invasive transplant platform that combines a micro-and nano-porous thin film immune-isolating device, implanted under the skin, together with genetically altered immunomodulatory A20 islets to prevent immune destruction; eliminating the need for immunosuppression. To overcome the human organ donor supply, islets will be sourced from pigs serving as a ubiquitous islet supply. The following aims will aid in accomplishing this objective:

1) Optimize micro-and nanoporous device fabrication and genetic engineering of A20 expressing porcine islets,

2) Utilize our ‘immunosuppression free’ combination islet transplant approach in murine islet transplant model, and

3) Scale-up and test our ‘immunosuppression free’ combination islet transplant platform in a large animal porcine study.

This application leverages the specific expertise (clinical islet transplantation, biomaterial and genetic engineering, immunology, and commercialization) of our international team in a new, innovative and synergistic project. By subverting the immune response to an islet transplant with a combination of a retrievable, biocompatible, scalable encapsulation device with genetically engineered immunomodulating porcine islets, our results will increase the prevalence of insulin independence, led to long-term durable graft function, eliminated recipient complications associated with systemic immunosuppression and broaden the spectrum of T1D patients eligible to receive a curative.
