description: Many hearing-impaired listeners struggle to localize sounds due to poor availability of binaural cues. Listeners with a cochlear implant and a contralateral hearing aid -- so-called bimodal listeners -- are amongst the worst performers, as both interaural time and level differences are poorly transmitted. We present a new method to enhance head shadow in the low frequencies. Head shadow enhancement is achieved with a fixed beamformer with contralateral attenuation in each ear. The method results in interaural level differences which vary monotonically with angle. It also improves low-frequency signal-to-noise ratios in conditions with spatially separated speech and noise. We validated the method in two experiments with acoustic simulations of bimodal listening. In the localization experiment, performance improved from 50.5° to 26.8° root-mean-square error compared with standard omni-directional microphones. In the speech-in-noise experiment, speech was presented from the frontal direction. Speech reception thresholds improved by 15.7 dB SNR when the noise was presented from the cochlear implant side, improved by 7.6 dB SNR when the noise was presented from the hearing aid side, and was not affected when noise was presented from all directions. Apart from bimodal listeners, the method might also be promising for bilateral cochlear implant or hearing aid users. Its low computational complexity makes the method suitable for application in current clinical devices.

description: Aus der Perspektive der Deklamation entwickeln Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock und Johann Heinrich Rolle in den 1760er Jahren jeweils eine neue Dramenkonzeption: die des "musikalischen Dramas" bei Rolle und die des "Bardiets" bei Klopstock. So verwandt der Ausgangspunkt für beide ist, so unterschiedlich präsentiert sich das Ergebnis: während für den Komponisten das musikalische Drama im Dialogischen, im Wechsel von Rezitativen, Arien, Ariosi und Ensembles sich entfaltet, ist in Klopstocks "Bardiet" die deklamierte Sprachbewegung der Bardengesänge der Träger der Handlung - die Prosadialoge kommentieren dies nur.

description: Landau level spectroscopy has been employed to probe the electronic structure of the valence band in a series of p-type HgTe/HgCdTe quantum wells with both normal and inverted ordering of bands. We find that the standard axial-symmetric 4-band Kane model, which is nowadays widely applied in physics of HgTe-based topological materials, does not fully account for the complex magneto-optical response observed in our experiments - notably, for the unexpected avoided crossings of excitations and for the appearance of transitions that are electric-dipole forbidden within this model. Nevertheless, reasonable agreement with experiments is achieved when the standard model is expanded to include effects of bulk and interface inversion asymmetries. These remove the axial symmetry, and among other, profoundly modify the shape of valence bands.

Extreme weather, climate change, climate action and uncertainty distress: A replication study using network analysis.

subject: Climate anxiety, climate change distress, extreme weather, intolerance of uncertainty, uncertainty distress

description: Both extreme weather and climate change have been linked to distress and at times mental health problems. Pro-environmental actions have often been related to higher distress. The uncertainty distress model (Freeston et al., 2020) proposes that in real-world situations, perceptions of threat and uncertainty contribute to distress. Freeston, Sermin-Read, et al. (2023) recruited a community sample (N = 327) who completed an online survey. Network analysis was used to analyse the relationships between the variables. Exposure to extreme weather, perceptions of climate change, climate change distress and pro-environmental action were measured along with symptoms of adjustment disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, and uncertainty intolerance and behaviours. They reported there was variable exposure to extreme weather, but greater exposure was associated with more severe post-traumatic symptoms. Pro-environmental action was associated with greater severity of adjustment disorder symptoms. The perception that climate change was happening now was linked positively to pro-environmental action and negatively to perceptions of uncertainty about whether climate change was happening. The results replicated several findings from the emerging climate change distress literature and are consistent with some predictions of the uncertainty distress model, but not others.

Aim: The main aim of the current study is to conduct a replication using network analysis with 1) improved measurement in some areas (see above and in measures section), 2) a larger and more diverse sample (see recruitment methods). The network analysis will follow the previous analysis as much as possible to facilitate comparison.

Methods: The study will essentially replicate the previous study with the following modifications: inclusion of heatwaves; expand the type, timescale and impact of warnings; differentiated assessment of disruption; fuller range of emotional responses; shortened/improved versions of other measures. A larger sample will be sought, recruited to increase not only the diversity and representativeness of the sample, but also the geographical distribution and so the range of experiences of extreme weather.

Results: Descriptive analyses of the participants, the experiences of extreme weather, and network analysis will be reported, based on the previous study.

description: Over the past decade our physical understanding of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has progressed rapidly thanks to the discovery and observation of their long-lived afterglow emission. Long-duration (T < 2 s) GRBs are associated with the explosive deaths of massive stars (``collapsars''), which produce accompanying supernovae, while the short-duration (T > 2 s) GRBs arise from a different origin, which has been argued to be the merger of two compact objects, either neutron stars or black holes. Here we present observations of GRB060614, a 100-s long burst discovered by the Swift satellite, which require the invocation of a new explosive process: either a massive ``collapsar'' that powers a GRB without any associated supernova, or a new type of engine, as long-lived as the collapsar but without any such massive stellar host. We also discuss the properties of this burst's redshift z=0.125 host galaxy, which distinguish it from other long-duration GRBs and suggest that an entirely new type of GRB progenitor may be required.

description: Assuming that supersymmetry is realized with parameters in the hyperbolic branch/focus point (HB/FP) region of the minimal supergravity (mSUGRA) model, we show that by searching for multijet + missing E_T events with tagged b jets the reach of experiments at the LHC may be extended by as much as 20% from current projections. The reason for this is that gluino decays to third generation quarks are enhanced because the lightest neutralino has substantial higgsino components. Although we were motivated to perform this analysis because the HB/FP region is compatible with the recent determination of the relic density of cold dark matter, our considerations may well have a wider applicability since decays of gluinos to third generation quarks are favoured in a wide variety of models.

description: PURPOSE: The ability to detect the migration of cells in living organisms is fundamental in understanding biological processes and important for the development of novel cell-based therapies to treat disease. MRI can be used to detect the migration of cells labeled with superparamagnetic iron-oxide (SPIO) or perfluorocarbon (PFC) agents. In this study, we explored combining these two cell-labeling approaches to overcome current limitations and enable new applications for cellular MRI. METHODS: We characterized (19) F-NMR relaxation properties of PFC-labeled cells in the presence of SPIO and imaged cells both ex vivo and in vivo in a rodent inflammation model to demonstrate selective visualization of cell populations. RESULTS: We show that with UTE3D, RARE, and FLASH (19) F images one can uniquely identify PFC-labeled cells, colocalized PFC- and SPIO-labeled cells, and PFC/SPIO-colabeled cells. CONCLUSION: This new methodology has the ability to improve and expand applications of MRI cell tracking. Combining PFC and SPIO strategies can potentially provide a method to quench PFC signal transferred from dead cells to macrophages, thereby eliminating false positives. In addition, combining these techniques could also be used to track two cell types simultaneously and probe cell-cell proximity in vivo with MRI. Magn Reson Med, 2014. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

description: Der Magdeburger Musikdirektor Johann Heinrich Rolle (1716-1785) ist vor allem bekannt durch seine weit verbreiteten, zumeist bei Breitkopf in Leipzig als Klavierauszug erschienenen Oratorien (Musikalischen Dramen). Er führte eine ausgedehnte Briefkorrespondenz mit Librettisten, Verlagen, Subskribenten und Kollekteuren, die in Hinblick auf diese Werkgruppe von großer Bedeutung ist. Durch die Vernichtung der Briefbestände des Archivs des Verlages Breitkopf im Zweiten Weltkrieg ist der Verlust von 134 Briefen zu beklagen, von denen in der älteren Literatur immerhin einige Auszüge mitgeteilt wurden. In verschiedenen Archiven und Bibliotheken können derzeit noch 20 Briefe Rolles nachgewiesen werden, so an G. M. Telemann, G. N. Fischer (?), G. S. Röttger, A. H. Niemeyer, J. A. Kranz (?), J. Chr. Kuhnau, an das Verlagshaus Breitkopf, an das Magdeburger Domkapitel und das Kirchenkollegium von St. Johannis zu Magdeburg. Ein Brief des jungen C. Fr. Zelter gibt Hinweise auf dessen Magdeburg-Aufenthalt im Jahre 1785. Die hier zum Teile erstmalig ausgewerteten Briefe geben Einblicke in das private und berufliche Leben Rolles, in die Genese verschiedener Kompositionen und liefern Informationen zum musikästhetischen Diskurs der Zeit, so z. B. zu den Angriffen des Musikkritikers J. Fr. Reichardts auf Rolle. (der Autor) Quelle: Bibliographie des Musikschrifttums online

description: The presence of a tau component in the flux of atmospheric neutrinos inside the Earth, due to flavor oscillations, makes these neutrinos a valuable probe of interactions of the tau neutrino with matter. We study -- analytically and numerically -- the effects of nonstandard interactions in the nu_e-nu_tau sector on atmospheric neutrino oscillations, and calculate the bounds on the exotic couplings that follow from combining the atmospheric neutrino and K2K data. We find very good agreement between numerical results and analytical predictions derived from the underlying oscillation physics. While improving on existing accelerator bounds, our bounds still allow couplings of the size comparable to the standard weak interaction. The inclusion of new interactions expands the allowed region of the vacuum oscillation parameters towards smaller mixing angles, 0.2 ~< sin^2 theta_{23} ~< 0.7, and slightly larger mass squared splitting, 1.5 * 10^{-3} eV^2 ~< |Δm^2_{23}| ~< 4.0 * 10^{-3} eV^2, compared to the standard case. The impact of the K2K data on all these results is significant; further important tests of the nu_e-nu_tau exotic couplings will come from neutrino beams experiments such as MINOS and long baseline projects.

description: Wenn im Folgenden von einer „Wende“ in der Genese der literarischen Verhältnisse im 18. Jahrhundert die Rede sein soll, so versteht sich dieses Unterfangen keineswegs von selbst. Denn solches Reden vermag sich nicht auf ein Großereignis zu beziehen, das sich […] im Horizont der lokalen Literaturgeschichte gleichsam vor aller Augen vollzogen hätte. Die hier intendierte „Wende“ […] markiert vielmehr einen komplexen und vielschichtigen Prozess lokalgeschichtlicher Umwendungen und Neuorientierungen, der sich mit dem Begriff „Paradigmenwechsel“ immer noch richtig, wenn auch nur unvollkommen […] beschreiben ließe. Das wichtigste Merkmal dieses Prozesses kann allerdings präzise bezeichnet werden: Seine Folgen […] setzten für Magdeburg einen neuen, unhintergehbaren Standard für das Feld literarischer Produktion, Rezeption und Distribution. Wollte man die Magdeburger literarischen Bestrebungen während des Siebenjährigen Krieges in ein umgreifendes Bild zusammenfassen, so müsste man von einem stadtbürgerlich-literarischen Selbstermächtigungsprozess bürgerlicher Kultureliten sprechen, der mit der illuminierenden Kraft der Aufklärung zu einem dauerhaften Beleuchtungswechsel im Magdeburger Kulturambiente der zweiten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts geführt hat. (der Autor) Quelle: gedruckte Vorlage

description: Clifford circuits -- i.e. circuits composed of only CNOT, Hadamard, and $π/4$ phase gates -- play a central role in the study of quantum computation. However, their computational power is limited: a well-known result of Gottesman and Knill states that Clifford circuits are efficiently classically simulable. We show that in contrast, "conjugated Clifford circuits" (CCCs) -- where one additionally conjugates every qubit by the same one-qubit gate $U$ -- can perform hard sampling tasks. In particular, we fully classify the computational power of CCCs by showing that essentially any non-Clifford conjugating unitary $U$ can give rise to sampling tasks which cannot be efficiently classically simulated to constant multiplicative error, unless the polynomial hierarchy collapses. Furthermore, by standard techniques, this hardness result can be extended to allow for the more realistic model of constant additive error, under a plausible complexity-theoretic conjecture. This work can be seen as progress towards classifying the computational power of all restricted quantum gate sets.

description: We present a new class of $C^\infty$-smooth finite element spaces on Cartesian grids, based on a partition of unity approach. We use these spaces to construct smooth approximations of particle fields, i.e., finite sums of weighted Dirac deltas. In order to use the spaces on general domains, we propose a fictitious domain formulation, together with a new high-order accurate stabilization. Stability, convergence, and conservation properties of the scheme are established. Numerical experiments confirm the analysis and show that the Cartesian grid-size $σ$ should be taken proportional to the square-root of the particle spacing $h$, resulting in significant speed-ups in vortex methods.

description: We have assembled a sample of 1187 thermonuclear (type-I) X-ray bursts from 48 accreting neutron stars by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, spanning more than ten years. The sample contains examples of two of the three theoretical ignition regimes and likely examples of the third. We present a detailed analysis of the variation of the burst profiles, energetics, recurrence times, presence of photospheric radius expansion, and presence of burst oscillations, as a function of accretion rate. We estimated the distance for 35 sources exhibiting radius-expansion bursts, and found that the peak flux of such bursts varies typically by 13%. We classified sources into two main groups based on the burst properties: both long and short bursts (indicating mixed H/He accretion), and consistently short bursts (primarily He accretion). The decrease in burst rate observed for both groups at >0.06 Mdot_Edd (>~2E37 erg/s) is associated with a transition in the persistent spectral state and (as has been suggested previously) may be related to the increasing role of steady He-burning. We found examples of bursts separated by <30 min, including burst triplets and even quadruplets. We describe the oscillation amplitudes for 13 of the 16 burst oscillation sources, as well as the stages and properties of the bursts in which the oscillations are detected. The burst properties are correlated with the burst oscillation frequency; sources at <400 Hz generally have consistently short bursts, while the more rapidly-spinning systems have both long and short bursts. This correlation suggests either that shear-mediated mixing dominates the burst properties, or that the nature of the mass donor (and hence the evolutionary history) has an influence on the long-term spin evolution.

description: For over twenty years, the term 'cosmic web' has guided our understanding of the large-scale arrangement of matter in the cosmos, accurately evoking the concept of a network of galaxies linked by filaments. But the physical correspondence between the cosmic web and structural-engineering or textile 'spiderwebs' is even deeper than previously known, and extends to origami tessellations as well. Here we explain that in a good structure-formation approximation known as the adhesion model, threads of the cosmic web form a spiderweb, i.e. can be strung up to be entirely in tension. The correspondence is exact if nodes sampling voids are included, and if structure is excluded within collapsed regions (walls, filaments and haloes), where dark-matter multistreaming and baryonic physics affect the structure. We also suggest how concepts arising from this link might be used to test cosmological models: for example, to test for large-scale anisotropy and rotational flows in the cosmos.

description: We investigate the integrability of the discrete non-linear equation governing the dependence on geodesic distance of planar graphs with inner vertices of even valences. This equation follows from a bijection between graphs and blossom trees and is expressed in terms of generating functions for random walks. We construct explicitly an infinite set of conserved quantities for this equation, also involving suitable combinations of random walk generating functions. The proof of their conservation, i.e. their eventual independence on the geodesic distance, relies on the connection between random walks and heaps of dimers. The values of the conserved quantities are identified with generating functions for graphs with fixed numbers of external legs. Alternative equivalent choices for the set of conserved quantities are also discussed and some applications are presented.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Drapieżne konferencje nie prowadzą rzetelnego procesu recenzyjnego, często mają fikcyjny komitet organizacyjny, nie są przejrzyste w kwestiach finansowych oraz siedziby, i publikują niemalże wszystko w publikacjach pokonferencyjnych. W zakończeniu artykułu wskazane jest jak można walczyć z drapieżnymi konferencjami Słowa kluczowe: drapieżne konferencje, etyka w nauce, nierzetelność naukowa, dobre praktyki akademickie Abstract: This paper describes the phenomenon ‘predatory conferences’, the characteristics of predatory conferences, and it describes the problems they cause for science. Predatory conferences fail to properly manage peer review, frequently have imaginary conference committee, do not operate any quality control, are unclear about payment requirements and about conference organizer or location. Towards the end of the paper it is discussed what can and should be done to eliminate or reduce the effects of predatory conferences.

description: We study multi-peak solitons \textit{on a plane-wave background} in an erbium-doped fiber system with some higher-order effects, which is governed by a coupled Hirota and Maxwel-Bloch (H-MB) model. The important characteristics of multi-peak solitons induced by the higher-order effects, such as the velocity changes, localization or periodicity attenuation, and state transitions, are revealed in detail. In particular, our results demonstrate explicitly that a multi-peak soliton can be converted to an anti-dark soliton when the periodicity vanishes; on the other hand, a multi-peak soliton is transformed to a periodic wave when the localization vanishes. Numerical simulations are performed to confirm the propagation stability of multi-peak solitons riding on a plane-wave background. Finally, we compare and discuss the similarity and difference of multi-peak solitons in special degenerate cases of the H-MB system with general existence conditions.

description: We determine stellar parameters for the M dwarf GJ 436 that hosts a Neptune-mass planet. We employ primarily spectral modeling at low and high resolution, examining the agreement between model and observed optical spectra of five comparison stars of type, M0-M3. Modeling high resolution optical spectra suffers from uncertainties in TiO transitions, affecting the predicted strengths of both atomic and molecular lines in M dwarfs. The determination of Teff, gravity, and metallicity from optical spectra remains at ~10%. As molecules provide opacity both in lines and as an effective continuum, determing molecular transition parameters remains a challenge facing models such as the PHOENIX series, best verified with high resolution and spectrophotometric spectra. Our analysis of GJ 436 yields an effective temperature of Teff = 3350 +/- 300 K and a mass of 0.44 Msun. New Doppler measurements for GJ 436 with a precision of 3 m/s taken during 6 years improve the Keplerian model of the planet, giving a minimum mass, M sin i = 0.0713 Mjup = 22.6 Mearth, period, P = 2.6439 d, and e = 0.16 +/- 0.02. The noncircular orbit contrasts with the tidally circularized orbits of all close-in exoplanets, implying either ongoing pumping of eccentricity by a more distant companion, or a higher Q value for this low-mass planet. The velocities indeed reveal a long term trend, indicating a possible distant companion.

description: Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are millisecond transient radio events with a high energy. By identifying the origin of the \textbf{burst}, it is possible to measure the redshift of the host galaxy, which can be used to constrain cosmological and astrophysical parameters and test aspects of fundamental physics when combined with the dispersion measure ($DM$). However, some factors limit the cosmological application of FRBs: (i) the poor modelling of the fluctuations in the $DM$ due to spatial variation in the cosmic electrons density; (ii) the fact that the fraction of baryon mass in the intergalactic medium ($f_{IGM}$) is degenerated with some cosmological parameters; (iii) the limited knowledge about host galaxy contribution ($DM_{host}$). In this work, we investigate the impact of different redshift distribution models of FRBs to constrain the baryon fraction in the IGM and host galaxy contribution. We use a cosmological model-independent method developed in previous work \cite{Lemos2023} to perform the analysis and combine simulated FRB data from Monte Carlo simulation and supernovae data. We assume four distribution models for the FRBs: gamma-ray bursts (GRB), star formation rate (SFR), uniform and equidistant (ED). Also, we consider samples with $N = 15, 30, 100$ and $500$ points and different values of the fluctuations of electron density in the $DM$, $δ= 0, 100, 200, 400, 230\sqrt{z}$ pc/cm$^{3}$. Our analysis shows that all the distribution models present consistent results within $2σ$ for the free parameters $f_{IGM}$ and $DM_{host,0}$ and highlights the crucial role of $DM$ fluctuations in obtaining more precise measurements.

description: Biogenesis of the Golgi apparatus is likely mediated by the COPI vesicle coat complex, but the mechanism is poorly understood. Modeling of the COPI subunit betaCOP based on the clathrin adaptor AP2 suggested that the betaCOP C terminus forms an appendage domain with a conserved FW binding pocket motif. On gene replacement after knockdown, versions of betaCOP with a mutated FW motif or flanking basic residues yielded a defect in Golgi organization reminiscent of that occurring in the absence of the vesicle tether p115. Indeed, betaCOP bound p115, and this depended on the betaCOP FW motif. Furthermore, the interaction depended on E(19)E(21) in the p115 head domain and inverse charge substitution blocked Golgi biogenesis in intact cells. Finally, Golgi assembly in permeabilized cells was significantly reduced by inhibitors containing intact, but not mutated, betaCOP FW or p115 EE motifs. Thus, Golgi organization depends on mutually interacting domains in betaCOP and p115, suggesting that vesicle tethering at the Golgi involves p115 binding to the COPI coat.

description: In this study, we will explore the association between smartphone use during face-to-face social interactions (i.e., phubbing), and its associations with social interaction quality, perceived closeness, and loneliness in individuals’ daily lives. We specifically examine how phubbing is associated with social interaction quality, feelings of closeness, and perceived loneliness.

We will use three studies to explore our hypotheses. First, with data from an ESM study (Study 1), we aim to explore the associations of subjective and objective smartphone use during face-to-face interactions with interaction quality, subsequent closeness, and loneliness. Second, these associations are examined in a second study with data on objective and subjective smartphone use from observations of conversations in public cafeterias (Study 2). Finally, drawing on a third study featuring an intervention on smartphone use while interacting face-to-face, we are going to explore the effect of three incremental interventions on interaction quality, closeness, and loneliness (Study 3). The Study 3 has an ABCA’ design, with the following four stages: A = baseline period of 10 days; B = intervention period of 11 days; C = break period of 14 days; A’ = follow-up period of 7 days.
