description: Thunderstorms and lightnings are natural particle accelerator systems. Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes, caused by relativistic runaway electron avalanches, produce bursts of $X$ and $γ$ rays, energetic enough to produce photo-nuclear reactions within the atmosphere. Such reactions cause the generation of new isotopes, which modify the air composition locally and produce new ways of detecting and characterizing this high-energy phenomena. In this work we explore, using the general purpose Monte Carlo transport code FLUKA, the production of secondaries after a Terrestrial gamma-ray flash and analyze the generation of new isotopes in detail. Their abundance, time and energy profiles are studied, which can be useful for establishing new measuring strategies.

description: Pesticide mismanagement potentially has high risks for farmers, households living in the community and the environment. In Papua New Guinea where farming is the primary occupation, there is evidence of dangerous herbicide application methods being used by coﬀee growers. Using original survey data for coﬀee smallholders from four provinces, we assess the factors driving farmers’ use of personal protective equipment when preparing and applying herbicides, and farmers’ disposal of agrochemical containers. We control for households’ demographic variables and measure the impact of farmers’ training in pest and disease management. We use the special regressor method to estimate binary choice models featuring an endogenous binary regressor (training). Our results show that human capital (education) and training are important drivers of farmers’ pesticide-handling practices, with marginal eﬀects estimated at 10 and 22 per cent, respectively.

description: Kitaev magnets are materials with bond-dependent Ising interactions between localized spins on a honeycomb lattice. Such interactions could lead to a quantum spin-liquid (QSL) ground state at zero temperature. Recent theoretical studies suggest two potential signatures of a QSL at finite temperatures, namely a scaling behavior of thermodynamic quantities in the presence of quenched disorder, and a two-step release of the magnetic entropy. Here, we present both signatures in Ag$_{3}$LiIr$_{2}$O$_{6}$ which is synthesized from $α$-Li$_{2}$IrO$_{3}$ by replacing the inter-layer Li atoms with Ag atoms. In addition, the DC susceptibility data confirm absence of a long-range order, and the AC susceptibility data rule out a spin-glass transition. These observations suggest a closer proximity to the QSL in Ag$_{3}$LiIr$_{2}$O$_{6}$ compared to its parent compound $α$-Li$_{2}$IrO$_{3}$ that orders at 15 K. We discuss an enhanced spin-orbit coupling due to a mixing between silver d and oxygen p orbitals as a potential underlying mechanism.

description: Lattice distortions associated with charge stripe order in 1/8 hole-doped La$_{1.875}$Ba$_{0.125-x}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ are studied using synchrotron X-ray diffraction for $x=0.05$ and $x=0.075$. The propagation wave vector and charge order correlation lengths are determined with a high accuracy, revealing that the oblique charge stripes in orthorhombic $x=0.075$ crystal are more disordered than the aligned stripes in tetragonal $x=0.05$ crystal. The twofold periodicity of lattice modulations along the c-axis is explained by long-range Coulomb interactions between holes on neighboring CuO$_{2}$ planes.

description: The results of our study of the motion of a three particle, self-gravitating system in general relativistic lineal gravity is presented for an arbitrary ratio of the particle masses. We derive a canonical expression for the Hamiltonian of the system and discuss the numerical solution of the resulting equations of motion. This solution is compared to the corresponding non-relativistic and post-Newtonian approximation solutions so that the dynamics of the fully relativistic system can be interpretted as a correction to the one-dimensional Newtonian self-gravitating system. We find that the structure of the phase space of each of these systems yields a large variety of interesting dynamics that can be divided into three distinct regions: annulus, pretzel, and chaotic; the first two being regions of quasi-periodicity while the latter is a region of chaos. By changing the relative masses of the three particles we find that the relative sizes of these three phase space regions changes and that this deformation can be interpreted physically in terms of the gravitational interactions of the particles. Furthermore, we find that many of the interesting characteristics found in the case where all of the particles share the same mass also appears in our more general study. We find that there are additional regions of chaos in the unequal mass system which are not present in the equal mass case. We compare these results to those found in similar systems.

Quiescent Burst Evidence for Two Distinct GRB Emission Components
Creators: name: Hakkila, Jon

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We have identified two quiescent GRBs (bursts having two or more widely-separated distinct emission episodes) in which the post-quiescent emission exhibits distinctly different characteristics than the pre-quiescent emission. In these two cases (BATSE GRBs 960530 and 980125), the second emission episode has a longer lag, a smoother morphology, and softer spectral evolution than the first episode. Although the pre-quiescent emission satisfies the standard internal shock paradigm, we demonstrate that the post-quiescent emission is more consistent with external shocks. We infer that some observed soft, faint, long-lag GRBs are external shocks in which the internal shock signature is not observed. We further note that the peak luminosity ratio between quiescent episodes is not in agreement with the ratio predicated by the lag vs. peak luminosity relationship. We briefly discuss these observations in terms of current collapsar jet models.

The mgf is given in terms of a temperature-like scalar satisfying a first order ODE. We apply the result to some paradigmatic situations: a levitated nanoparticle in a breathing optical trap, a brownian particle in a box with a moving piston and a two state system driven by an external field, where the work mgfs are obtained for different timescales and compared with Monte Carlo simulations.

description: We have examined the effects of a bound dineutron, n2, upon big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) as a function of its binding energy B_n2. We find a weakly bound dineutron has little impact but as B_n2 increases its presence begins to alter the flow of free nucleons to helium-4. Due to this disruption, and in the absence of changes to other binding energies or fundamental constants, BBN sets a reliable upper limit of B_n2

description: The era of data-intensive astronomy is being ushered in with the increasing size and complexity of observational data across wavelength and time domains, the development of algorithms to extract information from this complexity, and the computational power to apply these algorithms to the growing repositories of data. Data-intensive approaches are pushing the boundaries of nearly all fields of astronomy, from exoplanet science to cosmology, and they are becoming a critical modality for how we understand the universe. The success of these approaches range from the discovery of rare or unexpected phenomena, to characterizing processes that are now accessible with precision astrophysics and a deep statistical understanding of the datasets, to developing algorithms that maximize the science that can be extracted from any set of observations. In this white paper, we propose a number of initiatives to maximize Canada's ability to compete in this data-intensive era. We propose joining international collaborations and leveraging Canadian facilities for legacy data potential. We propose continuing to build a more agile computing infrastructure that's responsive to the needs of tackling larger and more complex data, as well as enabling quick prototyping and scaling of algorithms. We recognize that developing the fundamental skills of the field will be critical for Canadian astronomers, and discuss avenues through with the appropriate computational and statistical training could occur. Finally, we note that the transition to data-intensive techniques is not limited to astronomy, and we should coordinate with other disciplines to develop and make use of best practises in methods, infrastructure, and education.

description: We report the observation of a metal-insulator transition (MIT) in a two- dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a Si/SiGe heterostructure at zero magnetic field. On going through the MIT we observe the corresponding evolution of the magnetic field induced transition between the insulating phase and the quantum Hall (QH) liquid state in the QH regime. Similar to the previous reports for a GaAs sample, we find that the critical magnetic field needed to produce the transition becomes zero at the critical electron density corresponding to the zero field MIT. The temperature dependence of the conductivity in a metallic-like state at zero field is compared with the theory of the interaction corrections at intermediate and ballistic regimes $k_{B}Tτ/\hbar\geq1$. The theory yields a good fit for the linear part of the curve. However the slope of that part of $σ_{xx}(T)$ is about two times smaller than that reported in other 2D systems with similar values of $r_s$. At the same time, the recent theory of magnetoresistance due to electron-electron interaction in the case of arbitrary $k_{B}Tτ/\hbar$, smooth disorder and classically strong fields does not seem to be quite adequate for the description of the parabolic magnetoresistance observed in our samples. We attribute these results to the fact that neither of these theories deals with the whole scattering potential in a sample but leaves either its long range or its short range component out of consideration.

description: The dosing of layered materials with alkali metals has become a commonly used strategy in ARPES experiments. However, precisely what occurs under such conditions, both structurally and electronically, has remained a matter of debate. Here we perform a systematic study of 1T-HfTe$_2$, a prototypical semimetal of the transition metal dichalcogenide family. By utilizing photon energy-dependent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), we have investigated the electronic structure of this material as a function of Potassium (K) deposition. From the k$_z$ maps, we observe the appearance of 2D dispersive bands after electron dosing, with an increasing sharpness of the bands, consistent with the wavefunction confinement at the topmost layer. In our highest-dosing cases, a monolayer-like electronic structure emerges, presumably as a result of intercalation of the alkali metal. Here, by bringing the topmost valence band below $E_F$, we can directly measure a band overlap of $\sim$ 0.2 eV. However, 3D bulk-like states still contribute to the spectra even after considerable dosing. Our work provides a reference point for the increasingly popular studies of the alkali metal dosing of semimetals using ARPES.

description: In this work we investigate the dynamics of random walk processes on scale-free networks in a short to moderate time scale. We perform extensive simulations for the calculation of the mean squared displacement, the network coverage and the survival probability on a network with a concentration $c$ of static traps. We show that the random walkers remain close to their origin, but cover a large part of the network at the same time. This behavior is markedly different than usual random walk processes in the literature. For the trapping problem we numerically compute $Φ(n,c)$, the survival probability of mobile species at time $n$, as a function of the concentration of trap nodes, $c$. Comparison of our results to the Rosenstock approximation indicate that this is an adequate description for networks with $23$ the behavior is more complicated and one needs to employ a truncated cumulant expansion.

description: The current document provides an overview of the data and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) requirements of the users emerging from the sciences cases in the eLTER PLUS project (see paragraph 3.1 and 3.2 for the description of the users  dentified for defining user requirements). These findings are used to derive functional (i.e. the behaviour of essential features of the  system) and non-functional (i.e. the general characteristics of the system) requirements for the Information Technology (IT) infrastructure and services, as well as to focus on data needs for large-scale analyses. The content will be used to design and  further develop IT components in WP11. This document is a first iteration of user requirements and their implications for eLTER ICT  development presenting high-level user stories collected following a user centric approach. As development proceeds during the  project and research advances, it will certainly be a living document in the sense that acquired knowledge will inform and influence further iterations of development, for instance by updating the proposed use cases in cooperation with stakeholders.

description: For a better understanding of magnetic field in the solar corona and dynamic activities such as flares and coronal mass ejections, it is crucial to measure the time-evolving coronal field and accurately estimate the magnetic energy. Recently, a new modeling technique called the data-driven coronal field model, in which the time evolution of magnetic field is driven by a sequence of photospheric magnetic and velocity field maps, has been developed and revealed the dynamics of flare-productive active regions. Here we report on the first qualitative and quantitative assessment of different data-driven models using a magnetic flux emergence simulation as a ground-truth (GT) data set. We compare the GT field with those reconstructed from the GT photospheric field by four data-driven algorithms. It is found that, at least, the flux rope structure is reproduced in all coronal field models. Quantitatively, however, the results show a certain degree of model dependence. In most cases, the magnetic energies and relative magnetic helicity are comparable to or at most twice of the GT values. The reproduced flux ropes have a sigmoidal shape (consistent with GT) of various sizes, a vertically-standing magnetic torus, or a packed structure. The observed discrepancies can be attributed to the highly non-force-free input photospheric field, from which the coronal field is reconstructed, and to the modeling constraints such as the treatment of background atmosphere, the bottom boundary setting, and the spatial resolution.

The corresponding quantum system, for a variety of system parameters and over long time scales, is shown to display energy absorption that is significantly faster than that associated with the underlying classical anomalous diffusion. The results are of interest to both areas of quantum chaos and quantum control.

description: Background and aims: There is a higher prevalence of unhealthy alcohol use among Indigenous populations, but there have been few studies of the effectiveness of screening and treatment in primary health care. Over 24 months, we tested whether a model of service-wide support could increase screening and any alcohol treatment. Design: Cluster-randomized trial with 24-month implementation (12 months active, 12 months maintenance). Setting: Australian Aboriginal Community Controlled primary care services. Participants: Twenty-two services (83 032 clients) that use Communicare practice software and see at least 1000 clients annually, randomized to the treatment arm or control arm. Intervention and comparator: Multi-faceted early support model versus a comparator of waiting-list control (11 services). Measurements: A record (presence = 1, absence = 0) of: (i) Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test—Consumption (AUDIT-C) screening (primary outcome), (ii) any-treatment and (iii) brief intervention. We received routinely collected practice data bimonthly over 3 years (1-year baseline, 1-year implementation, 1-year maintenance). Multi-level logistic modelling was used to compare the odds of each outcome before and after implementation. Findings: The odds of being screened within any 2-month reference period increased in both arms post-implementation, but the increase was nearly eight times greater in early-support services [odds ratio (OR) = 7.95, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 4.04–15.63, P < 0.001]. The change in odds of any treatment in early support was nearly double that of waiting-list controls (OR = 1.89, 95% CI = 1.19–2.98, P = 0.01) but was largely driven by decrease in controls. There was no clear evidence of difference between groups in the change in the odds of provision of brief intervention (OR = 1.95, 95% CI = 0.53–7.17, P = 0.32). Conclusions: An early support model designed to aid routine implementation of alcohol screening and treatment in Aboriginal health services resulted in improvement of Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test—Consumption screening rates over 24 months of implementation, but the effect on treatment was less clear.

description: The aim of this paper is to explore whether in the eyes of young adolescents the consumption of different alcoholic beverages is associated with different alcohol expectancies, namely beliefs on what emotional outcomes take place when alcohol is consumed. 283 nine to 12-year olds from Switzerland completed the Alcohol Expectancy Task (AET). Participants were asked to assign one of 12 beverages (four alcoholic, eight non-alcoholic) to 16 adults depicting four emotional states (happy, angry, relaxed, sad). General linear modelling was used to examine beverage attributions across the four different emotional states. Beer was the most commonly attributed beverage across all 16 adults depicted. Happy and angry persons were most commonly attributed beer. Gender variations were found for relaxed persons, with females predominantly attributed champagne and males predominantly attributed beer. Young adolescents predominantly gave white wine to sad persons. Findings reveal a level of nuanced knowledge existing among young adolescents with minimal drinking experience, in that they hold very different expectancies for different beverages, prompting for future investigations to examine beverage-specific expectancies. Furthermore, findings showing beverage-specific expectancies among young adolescents may have implications for researchers’ considerations of how alcohol-related knowledge and expectancies develop throughout childhood.

description: Cluster lensing has become an important tool in the search for high redshift galaxies through its ability to magnify sources. In order to determine the intrinsic properties of these galaxies, lensing mass models must be constructed to determine the magnification of the images. These models are traditionally two-dimensional, focusing on the mass within the cluster and either ignoring or approximating any contribution from line-of-sight galaxies. In this paper, we present the first full set of three-dimensional mass models of the six Hubble Frontier Fields and use them to test for systematic biases in magnifications due to using the traditional 2D approach. We find that omitting foreground or background galaxies causes image position offsets between 0.1-0.4", a non-negligible fraction of the typical 0.3-0.7" residuals of current state-of-the-art models. We also find that median image magnifications can shift by up to 6%, though it is dependent on the field. This can be alleviated in some cases by approximating the mass in the lensing plane, but a 5% magnification bias still exists in other cases; image position offsets are also improved, but are still present at 0.10".

description: Background and ObjectivesCognitive and emotional changes affect the majority of individuals with acquired brain injury (ABI) and are associated with poorer outcomes. The evidence for “siloed” rehabilitation approaches targeting cognition and mood separately remains mixed. Valued living (i.e., acting consistently with personal values) is associated with better psychological functioning and participation in work and other productive activities. Rehabilitation interventions that concurrently address cognitive and emotional barriers to valued living may therefore result in improved outcomes. VaLiANT (Valued Living After Neurological Trauma) is an 8-week group intervention developed by our team, which uniquely combines cognitive rehabilitation and psychological therapy to improve wellbeing and meaningful participation (i.e., valued living) following ABI.MethodThis protocol describes the design and implementation of a Phase II parallel-group randomized controlled trial with blinded outcome assessors, to evaluate the potential efficacy of VaLiANT and the feasibility of a Phase III trial. Participants are adults with a history of ABI at least 3 months prior to study entry, who experience cognitive and/or emotional difficulties and associated reduced participation in valued activities. Random allocation to the treatment condition (8-week VaLiANT group program) or a usual care waitlist control condition occurs at a 2:1 treatment: control ratio. The primary outcome is wellbeing, measured by the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale. Secondary outcomes include measures of valued living, mood, cognitive complaints, quality of life, community participation, post-traumatic growth, and self-efficacy. All measures are collected across three time points by blinded assessors (baseline, 8-week follow-up, 16-week follow-up). Trial feasibility will be evaluated against recruitment rates, drop-out rates, intervention acceptability, and treatment fidelity (manual adherence and therapist competence).DiscussionThis trial will extend current knowledge on how to improve long-term outcomes following ABI by evaluating an innovative integrated, multi-domain approach to rehabilitation concurrently addressing cognitive and emotional barriers to participation in meaningful life roles.

description: A grand challenge underlies the entire field of topology-enabled quantum logic and information science: how to establish topological control principles driven by quantum coherence and understand the time-dependence of such periodic driving? Here we demonstrate a THz pulse-induced phase transition in Dirac materials that is periodically driven by vibrational coherence due to excitation of the lowest Raman-active mode. Above a critical field threshold, there emerges a long-lived metastable phase with unique Raman coherent phonon-assisted switching dynamics, absent for optical pumping. The switching also manifest itself by non-thermal spectral shape, relaxation slowing down near the Lifshitz transition where the critical Dirac point (DP) occurs, and diminishing signals at the same temperature that the Berry curvature induced Anomalous Hall Effect varnishes. These results, together with first-principles modeling, identify a mode-selective Raman coupling that drives the system from strong to weak topological insulators, STI to WTI, with a Dirac semimetal phase established at a critical atomic displacement controlled by the phonon pumping. Harnessing of vibrational coherence can be extended to steer symmetry-breaking transitions, i.e., Dirac to Weyl ones, with implications on THz topological quantum gate and error correction applications.

description: The perovskite TbFe$_{0.5}$Cr$_{0.5}$O$_3$ shows two anomalies in the magnetic susceptibility at $T_N$ = 257K and $T_{SR}$ = 190K which are respectively, the antiferromagnetic and spin reorientation transition that occur in the Fe/Cr sublattice. Analysis of the magnetic susceptibility reveals signatures of Griffiths-like phase in this compound. Neutron diffraction analysis confirms that, as the temperature is reduced from 350K, a spin reorientation transition from $Γ_2$ (F$_x$, C$_y$, G$_z$) to $Γ_4$ (G$_x$, A$_y$, F$_z$) occurs at $T_N$ = 257K and subsequently, a second spin reorientation takes place from $Γ_4$ (G$_x$, A$_y$, F$_z$) to $Γ_2$ (F$_x$, C$_y$, G$_z$) at $T_{SR}$ = 190K. The $Γ_2$ (F$_x$, C$_y$, G$_z$) structure is stable until 7.7K where an ordered moment of 7.74(1)$μ_\mathrm B$/Fe$^{3+}$(Cr$^{3+}$) is obtained from neutron data refinement. In addition to the long-range order of the magnetic structure, indication of diffuse magnetic scattering at 7.7K is evident, thereby lending support to the Griffiths-like phase observed in susceptibility. At 7.7K, Tb develops a ferromagnetic component along the crystallographic $a$ axis. Thermal conductivity, and spin-phonon coupling of TbFe$_{0.5}$Cr$_{0.5}$O$_3$ through Raman spectroscopy are studied in the present work. An antiferromagnetic structure with ($\uparrow \downarrow \uparrow \downarrow$) arrangement of Fe/Cr spins is found in the ground state through first-principles energy calculations which supports the experimental magnetic structure at 7.7K. The spin-resolved total and partial density of states are determined showing that TbFe$_{0.5}$Cr$_{0.5}$O$_3$ is insulating with a band gap of $\sim 0.12$ (2.4) eV within GGA (GGA+$U$) functionals.

Modeling the Comb Filter Effect and Interaural Coherence for Binaural Source Separation

description: Typical methods for binaural source separation consider only the direct sound as the target signal in a mixture. However, in most scenarios, this assumption limits the source separation performance. It is well known that the early reflections interact with the direct sound, producing acoustic effects at the listening position, e.g. the so-called comb filter effect. In this article, we propose a novel source separation model, that utilizes both the direct sound and the first early reflection information to model the comb filter effect. This is done by observing the interaural phase difference obtained from the time-frequency representation of binaural mixtures. Furthermore, a method is proposed to model the interaural coherence of the signals. Including information related to the sound multipath propagation, the performance of the proposed separation method is improved with respect to the baselines that did not use such information, as illustrated by using binaural recordings made in four rooms, having different sizes and reverberation times.

description: The report summarises the work done with respect to define and prototype workflows for the retrieval and harmonisation of legacy data. It specifically focuses on priority variables defined by the eLTER SO and aims to support Research Challenge related Science Cases at both, site and network scale. The first section describes the context of the work done, also in relation to the ‘Information Clusters’ concept, which aims to enhance findability and accessibility of relevant data sources in the eLTER context. The second section lists identified relevant data sources relevant in this context and provides demonstrators for data retrieval and harmonisation in the third part. We finally discuss and provide recommendations for the eLTER Information Clusters that focus on thematic prioritisation, structural and legal interoperability as well as outline next steps for the implementation. The annexes provide detailed information shown in the report only in aggregated format.
B Meson Decays to eta(')K*, eta(')rho,eta(')pi0, omegapi0, and phipi0

description: We present measurements of the branching fractions and charge asymmetries (where appropriate) of two-body B decays to eta(')K*, eta(')rho, eta(')pi0, omegapi0, and phipi0. The data were recorded with the BABAR detector at PEP-II and correspond to 89x10^6 BB pairs produced in e+e- annihilation through the Upsilon(4S) resonance. We find significant signals for two decay modes and measure the branching fractions BR(B+->etaK*+)=(25.6+/-4.0+/-2.4)x10^{-6} and BR(B0->etaK*0)=(18.6+/-2.3+/-1.2)x10^{-6}, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. We also find evidence with significance 3.5sigma for a third decay mode and measure BR(B+->etarho+)= (9.2+/-3.4+/-1.0)x10^{-6}. For other channels, we set 90% C.L. upper limits of BR(B0->etarho0)<1.5x10^{-6}, BR(B+->eta'K*+) < 14x10^{-6}, BR(B0->eta'K*0) < 7.6x10^{-6}, BR(B+->eta'rho+) < 22x10^{-6}, BR(B0->eta'rho0) < 4.3x10^{-6}, BR(B0->etapi0) < 2.5x10^{-6}, BR(B0->eta'pi0) < 3.7x10^{-6}, BR(B0->omegapi0) < 1.2x10^{-6}, and BR(B0->phipi0) < 1.0x10^{-6}. For self-flavor-tagging modes with significant signals, the time-integrated charge asymmetries are A_ch(B+->etaK*+)=+0.13\pm0.14\pm0.02 and A_ch(B0->etaK*0)=+0.02\pm0.11\pm0.02.
