description: Reconnecting natural habitats and improving agroecosystem conditions are strategic targets set by several European policies. In order to combine both of these needs, the European Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 has triggered new investments in Green Infrastructure (GI), which actually represents a valuable tool to increase ecological connectivity across natural and semi-natural habitats. In particular, GI may benefit the Natura2000 (N2K) network (i.e., the network of protected sites under the EU Habitats and Birds Directives) by reinforcing the node/site number, extent, and distribution and by improving connections between often small and isolated habitat patches. However, there is a lack of knowledge on what the actual needs of GI deployment are for improving the current N2K network, on the distribution of these needs across Europe and on the potential role of agricultural areas in the improvement of the network functionality. Concurrently, especially in SW Europe, there is an ongoing trend toward the homogenisation and intensification of agricultural systems and the combined loss of associated landscape elements, such as natural and semi-natural Small Woody Features (SWF). Although a well-planned network of such elements could support biodiversity and landscape connectivity, thus effectively complementing the N2K network, little evidence is available on their abundance and residual distribution, especially in agricultural areas and at continental/bioregional scales. Therefore, the present work is aimed at (i) identifying different types of territorial units (NUTS3) in W Mediterranean Europe according to current N2K network features, the overall composition of the actual landscape mosaic and the potential natural heterogeneity of the environment and (ii) identifying and spatialising N2K-related GI deployment needs according to a more specific network analysis in terms of nodes (extent of the total protected area) and links (density of residual woody elements in arable land) within the different types of NUTS3. By means of this wide-scale investigation, four different types of GI deployment needs were generalised across the W Mediterranean Europe NUTS3. Overall, the need for connection restoration prevails, followed by the need for the consolidation of node and link conservation, for the creation of new protected sites and for the enlargement of existing N2K sites. Although useful for a preliminary setting, the shortcomings related to summary data at the European level were also highlighted when compared to local-scale information, with the latter being more suitable for identifying and prioritising truly effective GI conservation and restoration actions.
title: Novel superconductor/magnet resonant configurations: Exact analytic representations of the Meissner state and the critical state
Creators: name: Genenko, Y. A.

Publisher: name: IOP Publishing
Year: 2024

description: We derive exact analytic representations of the Meissner state and the critical state of a current-carrying superconductor strip located inside a cylindrical magnetic cavity. Our results show that, when the distance between the superconductor and the magnet is small, the penetration of magnetic flux fronts is strongly reduced as compared to the respective situation in an isolated strip. Even for total currents almost matching the critical current of the strip, the major part of the superconductor remains flux free, so that AC losses in it are greatly depressed; a fact which facilitates the use of such a configuration as a coaxial-type transmission line. From our generic representation it is possible to derive current profiles in cavities of various other closed geometries too by means of conformal mapping of the basic configuration addressed.

description: The recently discovered sharp peak in the K⁺/π⁺ ratio in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is discussed in the framework of the thermal model. In this model a rapid change is expected as the hadronic gas undergoes a transition from a baryon-dominated to a mesondominated gas. The transition occurs at a temperature T = 140 MeV and baryon chemical potential μB = 410 MeV corresponding to an incident energy of √sNN = 8.2 GeV.

description: Current paper reports the advantages of the application of GitHub and LaTeX for the MSc thesis writing. The existing code-based program implemented in GitHub portal provides a great tool for scientists and students for data sharing and notification of the co-workers, tutors and supervisors involved in research about actual updates. It enables to connect collaborators to share around current results, release datasets and updates and more. Using standard command-line interface GitHub allows registered users to push repositories on the website. The availability of both public and private repositories enables to share current data updates with target audience: e.g. unpublished research work only for co-authors or supervisors, or vice versa. Therefore, there is a need in academic centres and universities to strongly popularize and increase the use of GitHub for student works. The case study is given on the graduate study: an MSc work written and maintained using open source GitHub service at the University of Twente, Faculty of Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (Netherlands). It reports my successful experience of writing MSc thesis based on the effective combination of LaTeX and GitHub.

description: We have grown (001)-oriented thin films of Gd₂₋ₓCeₓCuO₄ with cerium composition 0 < x < 0.2 by state-of-the-art reactive molecular beam epitaxy and characterized them by x-ray diffraction and transport measurements. A systematical change in the c-axis length upon cerium doping indicates that single-phase films were obtained for the whole doping range. Based on a log po₂ - 1/T phase diagram in combination with reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED), phase stability has been determined in order to achieve optimized reduction conditions. Gd₂₋ₓCeₓCuO₄ thin films even after controlled reductions treatment did not show superconductivity in the whole range of Ce concentration studied. However, the room temperature resistivity of optimally reduced Gd₂₋ₓCeₓCuO₄ thin films shows a minimum at around xCe = 0.16. Our results on the growth and characterization of Gd₂₋ₓCeₓCuO₄ thin films on (100) SrTiO3 substrates are described in detail.

description: We present simple models of particulate materials whose mechanical integrity arises from a jamming process. We argue that such media are generically "fragile", that is, they are unable to support certain types of incremental loading without plastic rearrangement. In such models, fragility is naturally linked to the marginal stability of force chain networks (granular skeletons) within the material. Fragile matter exhibits novel mechanical responses that may be relevant to both jammed colloids and cohesionless assemblies of poured, rigid grains.

description: It is shown that by assuming Gribov factorization to hold at low $x$ one obtains a simple relation between the structure function of the proton and that of the photon. By interpreting an observed structure in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) of leptons on protons as belonging to the proton, one can relate it to the structure of the exchanged photon, and visa versa. Predictions are given for the structure function of real and virtual photons at low $x$ by using data on the proton structure function together with the Gribov factorization relations.

description: This paper reports an overview of the extensive theoretical work that has been carried out over the past few years to explore the capabilities of intense beams of energetic heavy ions to study High Energy Density (HED) states in matter. This work has shown that an intense ion beam can be a very efficient driver for disparate experimental schemes suitable to study this important field of research. These include HIHEX [Heavy Ion Heating and EXpansion] that involves generation of required HED states by isochoric and uniform heating of matter by the ion beam that is followed by isentropic expansion. Another proposed experimental set up is named LAPLAS that stands for LAboratory PLAnetary Sciences. This latter experiment has been designed to generate physical conditions that are expected to exist in the interiors of the giant planets. This is achieved by a low-entropy compression of the sample material (hydrogen or ice). A third scheme involves a ramp (shockless) compression of a test material which will allow one to investigate the material properties, like yield strength, under dynamic conditions.

description: Experiments using high-energy/high-power lasers have being pursued for almost a decade at GSI. In the regime of ultra-intense lasers, the PHELIX (Petawatt High-Energy Laser for heavy-Ion experiments) system has reached the 20 TW level and first successful experiments have been done. In addition to the experiments on heavy-ion energy loss in laser produced plasmas, our research will focus on laser-assisted particle acceleration and the use of high-energy petawatt lasers (HEPW) for the diagnostics of dense plasmas which has raised great interest in the international community. The plasma physics group at GSI, based on experiments in France, the UK and the U.S., has contributed significantly to this field of research in recent years. Now, with the upcoming commissioning of different power levels of PHELIX our experimental activities can be performed at GSI. Due to the funding of a virtual institute by the Helmholtz Association, the opportunities for new experiments at GSI have grown significantly. The paper will give an overview of recent experimental results, show the link to the future GSI experimental program (including FAIR) and present the experiments that will be done at GSI for the years to come.
title: Sediment ecotoxicity of the insecticide lufenuron to benthic macroinvertebrates
Creators: name: Jollie, Lucas
Publisher: name: Student Undergraduate Research E-journal!
Year: 2016

description: Pesticides such as lufenuron are widely used in agriculture to preserve crops and maximize harvests. The application of lufenuron might cause it to inadvertently end up in surrounding ecosystems and causing unwanted damage. To assess the potential ecological damage and the fate of lufenuron, sediment toxicity tests using spiked sediment were performed, as well as a sediment aging test. Chironomids appeared as the most sensitive species and the toxicity of lufenuron decreased faster than previously thought at 20°C. Lastly, very little lufenuron can easily cause an environmental risk after application.

description: Legendre invariant metrics have been introduced in Geometrothermodynamics to take into account the important fact that the thermodynamic properties of physical systems do not depend on the choice of thermodynamic potential from a geometric perspective. In this work, we show that these metrics also have a statistical origin which can be expressed in terms of the average and variance of the differential of the microscopic entropy. To show this, we use a particular reparametrization of the coordinates of the corresponding thermodynamic phase space.

description: Nuclei are prototypes of many-body open quantum systems. Complex aggregates of protons and neutrons that interact through forces arising from quantum chromo-dynamics, nuclei exhibit both bound and unbound states, which can be strongly coupled. In this respect, one of the major challenges for computational nuclear physics, is to provide a unified description of structural and reaction properties of nuclei that is based on the fundamental underlying physics: the constituent nucleons and the realistic interactions among them. This requires a combination of innovative theoretical approaches and high-performance computing. In this contribution, we present one of such promising techniques, the ab initio no-core shell model/resonating-group method, and discuss applications to light nuclei scattering and fusion reactions that power stars and Earth-base fusion facilities.

description: The interplay between the quantum interferences responsible for one particle localization over a length L_1, and the partial dephasing induced by a local interaction of strength U with another particle leading to partial delocalization over a length L_2 > L_1, is illustrated by a study of the motion of two particles put close to each other at the initial time. Localization is reached in two steps. First, before the time t_1 necessary to propagate over L_1, the interaction slows down the ballistic motion. On the contrary, after t_1 the interaction favors a very slow delocalization, characterized by a $\log(t)$ spreading of the center of mass, until L_2 is reached. This slow motion is related to the absence of quantum chaos in this one dimensional model, the interaction being only able to induce weaker chaos with critical spectral statistics. Under appropriate initial conditions, the motion remains invariant under the duality transformation mapping the behavior at small U onto the behavior at large U.

description: A recent study of the X-ray source XMMUJ134736.6+173403 has revealed a strong quasi-periodic modulation of the X-ray flux. The observation of two quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) that occur on a daily timescale and exhibit a 3:1 frequency ratio strongly supports the evidence for the presence of an active galactic nucleus black hole (AGN BH). Assuming the orbital origin of QPOs we calculate the upper and lower limit on AGN BH mass M arriving at $M\approx 10^7-10^9M_{\odot}$. Comparing that to mass estimates of other sources, MMUJ134736.6+173403 appears to be the most massive source with commensurable QPO frequencies, and its mass represents the current observational upper limit on AGN BH mass based on QPO observations. We note it will be crucial for the falsification of particular resonance models of QPOs whether only single QPO with frequency that completes the harmonic sequence 3:2:1 is found in this source, or whether there is a new different pair of QPOs with frequencies in the 3:2 ratio. The former case would agree with the prediction of the 3:2 epicyclic resonance model and black hole mass $M\approx(5a^2 + 8a + 8)\times 10^{7}M_{\odot}$, where a is a dimensionless BH spin.

description: Nuclear interactions derived within chiral effective field theory enable nuclear structure and reaction calculations solidly rooted in QCD. Using chiral two- and three-body interactions in ab initio studies of a variety of nuclear observables is, both, promising and challenging. Particularly the inclusion of chiral 3N interactions into exact and approximate many-body calculations is demanding and computationally expensive. We present recent key developments that facilitate ab initio calculations of ground and low-lying excited states of p- and sd-shell nuclei with full 3N interactions in the Importance-Truncated No-Core Shell Model using consistent Similarity Renormalization Group transformations of the NN+3N Hamiltonian. The treatment of 3N interactions without approximations allows for first studies of the dependence of nuclear-structure observables on the details of chiral interactions. Moreover, we present results for heavy nuclei obtained in Coupled Cluster calculations using a normal-ordered two-body approximation of the 3N interaction.

We show that the magnetic field changes the nature of the strange quark transition from crossover to first-order at low temperatures. In fact, the strange quark undergoes multiple first-order phase transitions and several critical end points emerge in the phase diagram.

Automatic Analysis of Smoothing Techniques by Simulation Model Based Real-Time System for Processing 3D Human Faces
Creators: name: GANGULY, SURANJAN
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2014

description: The pivotal research work that has been carried out and described in this literature acknowledges the importance of various smoothing techniques for processing 3D human faces from 2.5D range face images. The smoothing techniques have been developed and implemented using MATLAB-Simulink for real time processing in embedded system. In addition, the significance of smoothed 2.5D range image over original face range image has been discovered as well as its time complexity has also been reported with array of experiments. The variations in time complexities are also accomplished using different optimization levels and execution modes. A set of filtering techniques such as, Max filter, Min filter, Median filter, Mean filter, Mid-point filter and Gaussian filter, have been designed and illustrated using Simulink model. The model takes depth face image (i.e. the range face image) as input in real time and presents the improvement over original face images. In the design flow, the performance of every block has also been characterized by range face images from Frav3D, GavabDB, and Bosphorus databases. In the experimental section of this research article, an array of performance analysis for these smoothing techniques with variation of frameworks is explained.

description: We show that a treatment of charged-current neutrino interactions in hot and dense matter that is consistent with the nuclear equation of state has a strong impact on the spectra of the neutrinos emitted during the deleptonization period of a protoneutron star formed in a core-collapse supernova. We compare results of simulations including and neglecting mean field effects on the neutrino opacities. Their inclusion reduces the luminosities of all neutrino flavors and enhances the spectral differences between electron neutrino and antineutrino. The magnitude of the difference depends on the equation of state and in particular on the symmetry energy at sub-nuclear densities. These modifications reduce the proton-to-nucleon ratio of the neutrino-driven outflow, increasing slightly their entropy. They are expected to have a substantial impact on the nucleosynthesis in neutrino-driven winds, even though they do not result in conditions that favor an r-process. Contrarily to previous findings, our simulations show that the spectra of electron neutrinos remain substantially different from those of other (anti)neutrino flavors during the entire deleptonization phase of the protoneutron star. The obtained luminosity and spectral changes are also expected to have important consequences for neutrino flavor oscillations and neutrino detection on Earth.

description: With initial and final particles on-shell, the anomalous weak-magnetic dipole moments of b and c quarks are electroweak gauge invariant quantities of the effective couplings Zb\bar{b} and Zc\bar{c}, respectively, and good candidates to test the Standard Model and/or new physics. Here we present a complete computation of these quantities within the Standard Model. We show that decoupling properties with respect to heavy particles do take place in the weak magnetic moment. The obtained values, a_b(M_Z^2)=(2.98-1.56i)x10^(-4) and a_c(M_Z^2)=(-2.80+1.09i)x10^(-5) are dominated by one-gluon exchange diagrams. The electroweak corrections are less than 1% of the total magnitude.

description: Entity Linking (EL) is the task of automatically identifying entity mentions in a piece of text and resolving them to a corresponding entity in a reference knowledge base like Wikipedia. There is a large number of EL tools available for different types of documents and domains, yet EL remains a challenging task where the lack of precision on particularly ambiguous mentions often spoils the usefulness of automated disambiguation results in real applications. A priori approximations of the difficulty to link a particular entity mention can facilitate flagging of critical cases as part of semi-automated EL systems, while detecting latent factors that affect the EL performance, like corpus-specific features, can provide insights on how to improve a system based on the special characteristics of the underlying corpus. In this paper, we first introduce a consensus-based method to generate difficulty labels for entity mentions on arbitrary corpora. The difficulty labels are then exploited as training data for a supervised classification task able to predict the EL difficulty of entity mentions using a variety of features. Experiments over a corpus of news articles show that EL difficulty can be estimated with high accuracy, revealing also latent features that affect EL performance. Finally, evaluation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method to inform semi-automated EL pipelines.

description: Transition probabilities have been measured between the low-lying yrast states in ¹⁷⁵Au by employing the recoil distance Doppler-shift method combined with the selective recoil-decay tagging technique. Reduced transition probabilities and magnitudes of transition quadrupole moments have been extracted from measured lifetimes allowing dramatic changes in nuclear structure within a low excitation-energy range to probed. The transition quadrupole moment data are discussed in terms of available systematics as a function of atomic number and aligned angular momentum.

description: Fast neutrons from cosmic-ray muons are an important background to underground low energy experiments. The estimate of such background is often hampered by the difficulty of measuring and calculating neutron production with sufficient accuracy. Indeed substantial disagreement exists between the different analytical calculations performed so far, while data reported by different experiments is not always consistent. We discuss a new unified approach to estimate the neutron yield, the energy spectrum, the multiplicity and the angular distribution from cosmic muons using the Monte Carlo simulation package FLUKA and show that it gives a good description of most of the existing measurements once the appropriate corrections have been applied.

description: Purpose: People living with HIV have higher rates of malignancies than the general population in the era of active antiretroviral therapy (ART). Genotoxic effects of HIV infection and/or ART that can induce neoplastic development are not yet well known. A prospective cohort study to investigate DNA damage measured through the micronuclei (MN) frequency in HIV-patients has been performed. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from 52 HIV-patients treated with ART and 55 healthy controls. Results: By the comparison of MN frequency, a significant difference between HIV-patients (15.5±9.8) and controls (6.0±3.6) (p<0.0001) has been revealed. In univariate linear regression analysis, HCV infection (r=0.31; p<0.001), HIV-RNA (r=0.29; p<0.03) and duration of infection (r=-0.16; p<0.25) were associated with MN frequency; while only viral load (VL) significantly correlates (r=0.29; p<0.05) in a multiple regression model. Conclusion: The association of VL with MN frequency supports a genotoxic effect of HIV infection.

description: Despite their great promise for providing a pathway for very efficient and fast manipulation of magnetization at the nanoscale, spin-orbit torque (SOT) operations are currently energy inefficient due to a low damping-like SOT efficiency per unit current bias, and/or the very high resistivity of the spin Hall materials. Here, we report an advantageous spin Hall material, Pd1-xPtx, which combines a low resistivity with a giant spin Hall effect as evidenced through the use of three independent SOT ferromagnetic detectors. The optimal Pd0.25Pt0.75 alloy has a giant internal spin Hall ratio of >0.47 (damping-like SOT efficiency of ~ 0.26 for all three ferromagnets) and a low resistivity of ~57.5 μΩ cm at 4 nm thickness. Moreover, we find the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), the key ingredient for the manipulation of chiral spin arrangements (e.g. magnetic skyrmions and chiral domain walls), is considerably strong at the Pd1-xPtx/Fe0.6Co0.2B0.2 interface when compared to that at Ta/Fe0.6Co0.2B0.2 or W/Fe0.6Co0.2B0.2 interfaces and can be tuned by a factor of 5 through control of the interfacial spin-orbital coupling via the heavy metal composition. This work establishes a very effective spin current generator that combines a notably high energy efficiency with a very strong and tunable DMI for advanced chiral spintronics and spin torque applications.

description: Recent calculations by Vorobev and Malyshenko (JETP Letters, 71, 39, 2000) show that molecular hydrogen may stay liquid and superfluid in strong electric fields of the order of $4\times 10^7 V/cm$. I demonstrate that strong local electric fields of similar magnitude exist beneath a two-dimensional layer of electrons localized in the image potential above the surface of solid hydrogen. Even stronger local fields exist around charged particles (ions or electrons) if surface or bulk of a solid hydrogen crystal is statically charged. Measurements of the frequency shift of the $1 \to 2$ photoresonance transition in the spectrum of two-dimensional layer of electrons above positively or negatively charged solid hydrogen surface performed in the temperature range 7 - 13.8 K support the prediction of electric field induced surface melting. The range of surface charge density necessary to stabilize the liquid phase of molecular hydrogen at the temperature of superfluid transition is estimated.

description: The QCD expectations for the behaviour of the deep inelastic scattering structure functions in the region of small values of the Bjorken parameter $x$ are summarized. The Balitzkij, Lipatov, Fadin, Kuraev (BFKL) equation which sums the leading powers of $α_s ln(1/x)$ is described and confronted with the "conventional" formalism based on the leading order QCD evolution equations. The small $x$ behaviour of the spin dependent structure function $g_1$ is also discussed. The dedicated measurements of the hadronic final state in deep inelastic scattering at small $x$ probing the QCD pomeron are described. This includes discussion of the deep inelastic scattering accompanied by forward jets as well as production of forward prompt photons and $π^0$-s. Finally the basic facts concerning the deep inelastic diffraction are briefly summarized.

description: The curvatures of two-particle energy levels with respect to the enclosed magnetic flux in mesoscopic disordered rings are investigated numerically. We find that the typical value of the curvatures is increased by interactions in the localised regime and decreased in the metallic regime. This confirms a prediction by Akkermans and Pichard (Eur. Phys. J. B 1, 223 (1998)). The interaction-induced changes of the typical curvatures at different energies and disorder strengths exhibit one-parameter scaling with a conductance-like single parameter. This suggests that interactions could influence the conductance of mesoscopic systems similarly.

Publisher: name: IOP Publishing
Year: 2024

description: The strong gravitational field of a black hole changes the neutrino fluxes emitted from matter accreting around it. We present effects of general relativity on the neutrino fluxes emerging from black hole accretion disks. The changes on the fluxes have implications on the nucleosynthesis resulting from the interaction of the emitted neutrinos and matter outflowing such disks.

description: Introduction: influenza is one of the main public health problems and Health Care Personnel's is one of the at-risk groups for this infection. So regarding this point, the goal of this research was to identify the beliefs and attitudes of the HCPs (Health Care Personnel) about influenza and the influenza vaccine. Methods: This cross-sectional study was planned in a general hospital in Tehran; Iran from January to June 2016.A total of 418 questionnaires was distributed among the HCPs. The entire data set was analyzed using the SPSS. We used the Chi2 test, linear regression and one-way ANOVA for data analysis. P-values less than 0.05 were considered as statistically significant. Results: The influenza vaccination coverage was 57.7%; the highest vaccine rate belonged to the allied health professionals (68.2%). Two main causes for avoiding the influenza vaccination were; the “fear of vaccine adverse effects” and the “uncertainty about the vaccine effectiveness”. The linear regression analysis identified that the physicians had the highest belief score, followed by the nurses and the allied health professionals (p <0.001). Conclusions: Educational planning on influenza and influenza vaccination is necessary to improve the vaccination coverage and to reduce the influenza mortality and morbidity in susceptible patients
