description: We investigate non-radial oscillations of hadronic, hybrid and pure self-bound strange quark stars with maximum masses above the mass of the recently observed massive pulsars PSR J1614-2230 and PSR J0348-0432 with $M \approx 2 M_{\odot}$. For the hadronic equation of state we employ different parametrizations of a relativistic mean-field model and for quark matter we use the MIT bag model including the effect of strong interactions and color superconductivity. We find that the first pressure mode for strange quark stars has a very different shape than for hadronic and hybrid stars. For strange quarks stars the frequency of the p1 mode is larger than 6 kHz and diverge at small stellar masses, but for hadronic and hybrid stars it is in the range 4-6 kHz. This allows an observational identification of strange stars even if extra information such as the mass, the radius or the gravitational redshift of the object is unavailable or uncertain. Also, we find as in previous works that the frequency of the g-mode associated with the quark-hadron discontinuity in a hybrid star is in the range 0.4-1 kHz for all masses. Thus, compact objects emitting gravitational waves above 6 kHz should be interpreted as strange quark stars and those emitting a signal within 0.4-1 kHz should be interpreted as hybrid stars.

description: Irradiation with 1.4 GeV $^{208}$Pb ions was used to induce artificial disorder in single crystals of iron-arsenide superconductor Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ and to study its effect on the temperature-dependent London penetration depth and transport properties. Study was undertaken on overdoped single crystals with $x$=0.108 and $x$=0.127 characterized by notable modulation of the superconducting gap. Irradiation with doses 2.22$\times10^{11}$$\textit{d}$/cm$^2$ and 2.4$\times10^{11}$$\textit{d}$/cm$^2$, corresponding to the matching fields of $B_ϕ = $6 T and 6.5 T, respectively, suppresses the superconducting $T_c$ by approximately 0.3 to 1 K. The variation of the low-temperature penetration depth in both pristine and irradiated samples is well described by the power-law, $Δλ(T)=AT^n$. Irradiation increases the magnitude of the pre-factor $A$ and decreases the exponent $n$, similar to the effect of irradiation in optimally doped samples. This finding supports universal $s_{\pm}$ pairing in Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ compounds for the whole Co doping range.

Fundamental, model-driven investigations of structure and physical properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels and multi-arm poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels : decoupling stiffness and solute transport

description: Synthetic hydrogels are advanced biomaterials frequently used in cutting-edge biomedical engineering research and clinical interventions. Their value is highly associated with their tunability and ability to mimic the extracellular matrix properties of a variety of tissues such as bone marrow and brain tissue, but many of the fundamental properties of hydrogels are overly generalized and under-investigated. Recent studies have shown that cells respond to both the stiffness and solute transport profile of their environment, but standard hydrogel synthesis methods cause those two properties to be highly correlated. New insight into structural control of hydrogel properties is needed to independently tune stiffness and solute transport in hydrogels. This dissertation combines fundamental modeling, the full capabilities of multi-arm poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogel design, and high-throughput, standardized methods for measuring hydrogel swelling, stiffness, and solute transport to decouple stiffness and solute diffusivity in hydrogels without changing their chemical properties. First, we coordinated equilibrium swelling theory, rubberlike elasticity theory, and mesh transport theory into the fundamental predictive swollen polymer network model. From the model and prior studies relating hydrogel structure and function, we identified four structural parameters that could be independently controlled at synthesis. The swollen polymer network model predicted that simultaneously manipulating these four structural parameters would decouple stiffness and solute diffusivity. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels were used to establish model-compatible, high-throughput measurement methods for swelling, stiffness, and solute transport. The eighteen PVA hydrogel formulations with variation in two of the four structural parameters also served as a control group for the multi-arm PEG hydrogels. The extensive validation studies with PVA hydrogels identified limitations of the swollen polymer network model not addressed by the following multi-arm PEG hydrogel studies, such as how solute diffusivity scales differently with solute size for different solute chemical profiles. Stiffness and solute transport were decoupled by the four structural parameters in multi-arm PEG hydrogels. However, the structure-property relationship that facilitated the decoupling was not predicted by the swollen polymer network model, highlighting an opportunity for further model development. The fundamental model-based hydrogel design approach described here provides a foundation for robust hydrogel design for biomedical applications.

description: Let $F$ be a quadratic form in $N \geq 2$ variables defined on a vector space $V \subseteq K^N$ over a global field $K$, and $\Z \subseteq K^N$ be a finite union of varieties defined by families of homogeneous polynomials over $K$. We show that if $V \setminus \Z$ contains a nontrivial zero of $F$, then there exists a linearly independent collection of small-height zeros of $F$ in $V\setminus \Z$, where the height bound does not depend on the height of $\Z$, only on the degrees of its defining polynomials. As a corollary of this result, we show that there exists a small-height maximal totally isotropic subspace $W$ of the quadratic space $(V,F)$ such that $W$ is not contained in $\Z$. Our investigation extends previous results on small zeros of quadratic forms, including Cassels' theorem and its various generalizations. The paper also contains an appendix with two variations of Siegel's lemma. All bounds on height are explicit.

Simulating Deployment of Genetic Gain in a Radiata Pine Breeding Program with Genomic Selection

description: Genomic selection (GS) is currently being used in the New Zealand radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) breeding program to accelerate genetic gain. GS also has the potential to accelerate the deployment of genetic gain to the production forest through early selection. The increased rate of genetic gain in the breeding cycle will need to be transferred more quickly to realise that gain in the deployment population. GS selections will have lower accuracies than selections based on phenotypic data as currently practiced, however it is unknown how this will affect the genetic gain from GS-based deployment. Moreover, census size and turnover rate need to be optimised to cope with the influx of new marker-based selected material into a commercial orchard. We utilised a stochastic simulation approach to investigate these concepts, comparing three deployment scenarios: half-sib open-pollinated orchards (OP), full-sib control-pollinated orchards (CP) and clonal deployment through somatic embryogenesis.

Accuracy of quantum simulators with ultracold dipolar molecules: a quantitative comparison between continuum and lattice descriptions

description: With rapid progress in control and manipulation of ultracold magnetic atoms and dipolar molecules, the quantum simulation of lattice models with strongly interacting dipole-dipole interactions (DDI) and high densities is now within experimental reach. This rapid development raises the issue about the validity of quantum simulation in such regimes. In this study, we address this question by performing a full quantitative comparison between the continuum description of a one-dimensional gas of dipolar bosons in an optical lattice, and the single-band Bose-Hubbard lattice model that it quantum simulates. By comparing energies and density distributions, and by calculating direct overlaps between the continuum and lattice many-body wavefunctions, we demonstrate that in regimes of strong DDI and high densities the continuum system fails to recreate the desired lattice model. Two-band Hubbard models become necessary to reduce the discrepancy observed between continuum and lattice descriptions, but appreciable deviations in the density profile still remain. Our study elucidates the role of strong DDI in generating physics beyond lowest-band descriptions and should offer a guideline for the calibration of near-term dipolar quantum simulators.

Relating Changes in Cometary Rotation to Activity: Current Status and Applications to Comet C/2012 S1 (ISON)

description: We introduce a parameter, X, to predict the changes in the rotational period of a comet in terms of the rotational period itself, the nuclear radius, and the orbital characteristics. We show that X should be a constant if the bulk densities and shapes of nuclei are nearly identical and the activity patterns are similar for all comets. For four nuclei for which rotational changes are well documented, despite the nearly factor 30 variation observed among the effective active fractions of these comets, X is constant to within a factor two. We present an analysis for the sungrazing comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) to explore what rotational changes it could undergo during the upcoming perihelion passage where its perihelion distance will be ~2.7 solar radii. When close to the sun, barring a catastrophic disruption of the nucleus, the activity of ISON will be sufficiently strong to put the nucleus into a non-principal-axis rotational state and observable changes to the rotational period should also occur. Additional causes for rotational state changes near perihelion for ISON are tidal torques caused by the sun and the significant mass loss due to a number of mechanisms resulting in alterations to the moments of inertia of the nucleus.

description: This poster introduces Aila and Metka, two brand new tools for the Finnish Social Science Data Archive (FSD). Aila is FSD’s new web based customer service portal. It will be our main tool for data dissemination. Aila allows customers to search, browse and review our data descriptions on study and variable level, and after registration, download data directly from the service portal. We will demonstrate the functionality of the portal and share the experiences gained during the building phase and the first few months of operation. Metka will be FSD’s tool for managing metadata. Metadata will be entered to Metka, which in turn will feed other systems at FSD (e.g., Aila). This will greatly simplify building services based on our rich metadata as it allows repurposing metadata from a single authorative source. We will present Metka’s features and show how it connects to FSD’s services and other systems. The system will be operational in January 2015. Metka is open source and can be obtained from github. With Aila and Metka, we have defined the software platform FSD will utilise in building new tools for the archive and services for our customers. For example, Shibboleth will be used consistently for user authentication.

Real-time covariance estimation for the local level model

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper develops on-line inference for the multivariate local level model, with the focus being placed on covariance estimation of the innovations. We assess the application of the inverse Wishart prior distribution in this context and find it too restrictive since the serial correlation structure of the observation and state innovations is forced to be the same. We generalize the inverse Wishart distribution to allow for a more convenient correlation structure, but still retaining approximate conjugacy. We prove some relevant results for the new distribution and we develop approximate Bayesian inference, which allows simultaneous forecasting of time series data and estimation of the covariance of the innovations of the model. We provide results on the steady state of the level of the time series, which are deployed to achieve computational savings. Using Monte Carlo experiments, we compare the proposed methodology with existing estimation procedures. An example with real data consisting of production data from an industrial process is given.

description: In this paper, we extend the Unruh-DeWitt (UDW) model to include a relativistic quantized center of mass (c.m.) for the detector, which traditionally has a classical c.m. and follows a classical trajectory. We develop a relativistic model of an inertial detector following two different approaches, starting from either a first- or second-quantized treatment, which enables us to compare the fundamental differences between the two schemes. In particular, we find that the notion of localization is different between the two models, and leads to distinct predictions, which we study by comparing the spontaneous emission rates for the UDW detector interacting with a massless scalar field. Furthermore, we consider the UDW system in both a vacuum and medium, and compare our results to existing models describing a classical or quantized c.m. at low energies. We find that the predictions of each model, including the two relativistic cases, can in principle be empirically distinguished, and our results can be further extended to find optimal detector states and processes to perform such experiments. This would clarify both the role of a quantized c.m. for interactions with an external field, and the differing localizations between the first- and second-quantized treatments.

description: The study of galaxies has changed dramatically over the past few decades with the advent of large-scale astronomical surveys. These large collaborative efforts have made available high-quality imaging and spectroscopy of hundreds of thousands of systems, providing a body of observations which has significantly enhanced our understanding not only of cosmology and large-scale structure in the universe but also of the astrophysics of galaxy formation and evolution. Throughout these changes, one thing that has remained constant is the role of galaxy morphology as a clue to understanding galaxies. But obtaining morphologies for large numbers of galaxies is challenging; this topic, "Morphology in the era of large surveys", was the subject of a recent discussion meeting at the Royal Astronomical Society, and this "Astronomy and Geophysics" article is a report on that meeting.

Power line communication based real time train tracking system for Addis Ababa light rail transit

description: In railway traffics the low friction between wheel and rail causes long braking distances, normally much longer than the driver"s sight distance, i.e. if the driver starts the braking when he discovers a problem on the track it is too late to stop the train. The conclusion will be that the railway traffic can not only rely on the driver for the traffic safety, there must also be a signaling or even an automatic surveyor system, which can supervise the positions of different trains along the track and organize the traffic. Having the traffics information on the track helps to avoid situations of conflict and those that might be potentially unsafe.

description: We investigate relations between the ranks of marginals of multipartite quantum states. These are the Schmidt ranks across all possible bipartitions and constitute a natural quantification of multipartite entanglement dimensionality. We show that there exist inequalities constraining the possible distribution of ranks. This is analogous to the case of von Neumann entropy (α-Rényi entropy for α=1), where nontrivial inequalities constraining the distribution of entropies (such as e.g. strong subadditivity) are known. It was also recently discovered that all other α-Rényi entropies for $α\in(0,1)\cup(1,\infty)$ satisfy only one trivial linear inequality (non-negativity) and the distribution of entropies for $α\in(0,1)$ is completely unconstrained beyond non-negativity. Our result resolves an important open question by showing that also the case of α=0 (logarithm of the rank) is restricted by nontrivial linear relations and thus the cases of von Neumann entropy (i.e., α=1) and 0-Rényi entropy are exceptionally interesting measures of entanglement in the multipartite setting.

Piti, at light, May 9, 13, August 8, 9, 12, 13, 17, 18, Sept. 4, 7, 16, 24, Oct. 18, Nov. 26, Swezey; Sasa, Sept. 3, reared from larvae and pupae in rice seedling plots, Swezey; Piti, May 12, reared from larva on grass, Swezey; Sept. 111 reared from an egg cluster found on porch screen; Oct. 6, reared from larvae and pupae under stones in pasture; Oct. 25, reared from egg cluster on rose bush, Swezey. An ichneumonid, Echthromorpha conopleura Krieger, was reared from pupae of this moth. This moth has a wide distribution in the Old World tropics and the islands of the Pacific. For a long time it was supposed to be present i.n Hawaii, where it had become known as the nutgrass armyworm, and sometimes severely injured cane fields which were infested with nutgrass. Recently, however, the correct name for the pest in Hawaii was determined as Laphygma e.xempta (Walker), which has much the same geographical distribution and habits as Spodoptera mauritia. Fullaway reared Spodoptera mauritia from Bermuda grass in 1911. In more recent years it has been known as a rice pest, often becoming numerous in the rice fields, or in the seedling beds. Eggs were abundantly laid on under side of leaves of rose bushes in lawn at our residence. The caterpillars, never numerous, did not feed on the rose but ate several kinds of grass. Some of the caterpillars hatching from eggs were fed to maturity on grass. The caterpillars are very similar to those of Laphygma e.xempta in Hawaii. The Teien~ omus nawai from Honolulu became established on the Spodoptera eggs, as well as on Prodenia eggs.

On the origins of gaggle theory
Creators: Katalin Bimbó
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2022

The generalized Galois logic approach (i.e., gaggle theory), introduced by Dunn, provides a systematic way to define semantics for many substructural logics in the form of a relational representation of their Lindenbaum algebras. We provide an overview of some conceptual antecedents that we think that likely contributed to the creation of gaggle theory. In our reconstruction, we rely on Dunn’s publications and some materials deposited in the Archives of Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, U.S.A.

description: Pierrine Saini und Thomas Schärer untersuchen erstmals systematisch die Filmproduktion der Schweizerischen Gesellschaft für Volkskunde (SGV). Basierend auf umfassenden Archivrecherchen, exemplarischen Filmanalysen und Gesprächen mit Filmschaffenden und Protagonisten diskutieren sie Intention, Produktion, Form und Rezeption dieses seit 1942 stetig wachsenden lebendigen Archivs. Die Filme sind kontextualisiert in die nationale und internationale Produktion von ethnografischen Dokumentarfilmen und in zeitgenössische und aktuelle Diskurse in der Kulturwissenschaft und der visuellen Anthropologie. Zugleich schreiben die Autoren eine Geschichte der Abteilung Film der SGV und beleuchten die Geschichte der Handwerkskultur und des Dokumentarfilms in der Schweiz. Alle im Buch ausführlich analysierten Filme und ein Teil der zitierten, audiovisuell aufgezeichneten Interviews sind online zugänglich. Pierrine Saini et Thomas Schärer proposent pour la première fois une étude complète et transversale de la production filmique de la Société suisse des traditions populaires (SSTP), un ensemble de près de 80 films témoins de gestes et de vies d'artisans en Suisse depuis 1942.

The Milky Way thin disk structure as revealed by stars and young open clusters

description: In this contribution I shall focus on the structure of the Galactic thin disk. The evolution of the thin disk and its chemical properties have been discussed in detail by T. Bensby's contribution in conjunction with the properties of the Galactic thick disk, and by L.Olivia in conjunction with the properties of the Galactic bulge. I will review and discuss the status of our understanding of three major topics, which have been the subject of intense research nowadays, after long years of silence: (1) the spiral structure of the Milky Way, (2) the size of the Galactic disk, and (3) the nature of the Local arm (Orion spur), where the Sun is immersed. The provisional conclusions of this discussion are that : (1) we still have quite a poor knowledge of the Milky Way spiral structure, and the main dis-agreements among various tracers are still to be settled; (2) the Galactic disk does clearly \textit{not} have an obvious luminous cut-off at about 14 kpc from the Galactic center, and next generation Galactic models need to be updated in this respect, and (3) the Local arm is most probably an inter-arm structure, similar to what we see in several external spirals, like M~74. Finally, the impact of GAIA and LAMOST in this field will be briefly discussed as well.

description: In this paper, we propose a capacity-approaching analog fountain code (AFC) for wireless channels. In AFC, the number of generated coded symbols is potentially limitless. In contrast to the conventional binary rateless codes, each coded symbol in AFC is a real-valued symbol, generated as a weighted sum of $d$ randomly selected information bits, where $d$ and the weight coefficients are randomly selected from predefined probability mass functions. The coded symbols are then directly transmitted through wireless channels. We analyze the error probability of AFC and design the weight set to minimize the error probability. Simulation results show that AFC achieves the capacity of the Gaussian channel in a wide range of signal to noise ratio (SNR).

description: If fusion power reactors are to be feasible, it will still be necessary to convert the energy of the nuclear reaction into usable form. The heat produced will be removed from the reactor core by a primary coolant, which might be water, helium, molten lithium-lead, molten lithium-containing salt, or CO2. The heat could then be transferred to a conventional Rankine cycle or Brayton (gas turbine) cycle. Alternatively it could be used for thermochemical processes such as producing hydrogen or other transport fuels. Fusion presents new problems because of the high energy neutrons released. These affect the selection of materials and the operating temperature, ultimately determining the choice of coolant and working cycle. The limited temperature ranges allowed by present day irradiated structural materials, combined with the large internal power demand of the plant, will limit the overall thermal efficiency. The operating conditions of the fusion power source, the materials, coolant, and energy conversion system will all need to be closely integrated.

Complex projective structures: Lyapunov exponent, degree and harmonic measure

description: We study several new invariants associated to a holomorphic projective structure on a Riemann surface of finite analytic type: the Lyapunov exponent of its holonomy which is of probabilistic/dynamical nature and was introduced in our previous work; the degree which measures the asymptotic covering rate of the developing map; and a family of harmonic measures on the Riemann sphere, previously introduced by Hussenot. We show that the degree and the Lyapunov exponent are related by a simple formula and give estimates for the Hausdorff dimension of the harmonic measures in terms of the Lyapunov exponent. In accordance with the famous "Sullivan dictionary", this leads to a description of the space of such projective structures that is reminiscent of that of the space of polynomials in holomorphic dynamics.

description: For an arbitrary sequence $(G_s)$ of subgroups of finite index in the generalised Thompson group $$F_{n, \infty} = \langle x_0, x_1, \ldots, x_m, \ldots \mid x_i^{x_j} = x_{i+ n-1} \hbox{ for } i > j \geq 0 \rangle$$ it is shown that $\sup_{s \geq 1} d(G_s) < \infty$ and that the deficiency gradient of $F_{n, \infty}$ with respect to $(G_s)$ is 0 provided $[G : G_s]$ tends to infinity. A higher dimensional analogue is considered for $n = 2$.

description: This paper describes an in-depth study on an unprecedented reproduction of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem dated to the end of the 17th century and located in central Tuscany, within the complex of the Orgia Castle, in the province of Siena. This model of the Holy Sepulcher was initially the subject of an accurate integrated digital survey which involved the use of advanced instrumentation and methodologies such as laser-scanner and SfM photogrammetry by UAV, which led to the development of 3D models and graphic elaborations describing the current architectural state. The results of the digital survey have laid the foundations for historical investigations relating to the comparison between the numerous reproductions and representations traceable throughout Europe, in relation to the original one in Jerusalem and its transformations over the centuries. The research also deals with the phases, the techniques adopted, and the results obtained from the restoration of the building of the Orgia aedicule, carefully describing each of the architectural elements that compose it.

description: Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is a rare but fatal disease diagnosed by right heart catheterisation and the exclusion of other forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension, producing a heterogeneous population with varied treatment response. Here we show unsupervised machine learning identification of three major patient subgroups that account for 92% of the cohort, each with unique whole blood transcriptomic and clinical feature signatures. These subgroups are associated with poor, moderate, and good prognosis. The poor prognosis subgroup is associated with upregulation of the ALAS2 and downregulation of several immunoglobulin genes, while the good prognosis subgroup is defined by upregulation of the bone morphogenetic protein signalling regulator NOG, and the C/C variant of HLA-DPA1/DPB1 (independently associated with survival). These findings independently validated provide evidence for the existence of 3 major subgroups (endophenotypes) within the IPAH classification, could improve risk stratification and provide molecular insights into the pathogenesis of IPAH.
