description: Although inertial particle-laden flows occur in a wide range of industrial and natural processes, there is both a lack of fundamental understanding of these flows and continuum-level governing equations needed to predict transport and particle distribution. Towards this effort, the Taylor-Couette flow (TCF) system has been used recently to study the flow behavior of particle-laden fluids under inertia. This article provides an overview of experimental, theoretical, and computational work related to the TCF of neutrally buoyant non-Brownian suspensions, with an emphasis on the effect of finite-sized particles on the series of flow transitions and flow structures. Particles, depending on their size and concentration, cause several significant deviations from Newtonian fluid behavior, including shifting the Reynolds number corresponding to transitions in flow structure and changing the possible structures present in the flow. Furthermore, particles may also migrate depending on the flow structure, leading to hysteretic effects that further complicate the flow behavior. The current state of theoretical and computational modeling efforts to describe the experimental observations is discussed, and suggestions for potential future directions to improve the fundamental understanding of inertial particle-laden flows are provided.

Landau-Ginzburg model for a deformation-driven experiment on shape memory alloys
Creators: name: Bubner, Nikolaus
Publisher: name: Weierstrass Institute
Year: 1995

description: A Landau-Ginzburg model describing first order martensitic phase transitions in shape memory alloys is considered. The model developed by Falk is transformed in order to simulate deformation-driven experiments done by I. Müller and his co-workers. In these experiments, they do not only observe load-deformation hysteresis loops but also small loops inside these hysteresis loops. Numerical simulations for a CuZnAl single crystal show good agreement with the experiment. We find, for example, nucleation processes, moving phase boundaries, rate-independent hysteresis loops and interior loops.

description: We study the single file diffusion problem on a one-dimensional lattice with a self-similar distribution of hopping rates. We find that the time dependence of the mean-square displacement of both a tagged particle and the center of mass of the system present anomalous power laws modulated by logarithmic periodic oscillations. The anomalous exponent of a tagged particle is one half of the exponent of the center of mass, and always smaller than 1/4. Using heuristic arguments, the exponents and the periods of oscillation are analytically obtained and confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations.

description: The goal of sequential recommendation (SR) is to predict a user's potential interested items based on her/his historical interaction sequences. Most existing sequential recommenders are developed based on ID features, which, despite their widespread use, often underperform with sparse IDs and struggle with the cold-start problem. Besides, inconsistent ID mappings hinder the model's transferability, isolating similar recommendation domains that could have been co-optimized. This paper aims to address these issues by exploring the potential of multi-modal information in learning robust and generalizable sequence representations. We propose MISSRec, a multi-modal pre-training and transfer learning framework for SR. On the user side, we design a Transformer-based encoder-decoder model, where the contextual encoder learns to capture the sequence-level multi-modal user interests while a novel interest-aware decoder is developed to grasp item-modality-interest relations for better sequence representation. On the candidate item side, we adopt a dynamic fusion module to produce user-adaptive item representation, providing more precise matching between users and items. We pre-train the model with contrastive learning objectives and fine-tune it in an efficient manner. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and flexibility of MISSRec, promising a practical solution for real-world recommendation scenarios.

Magnetic ordering in the $J_{\rm eff}$ = 0 Nickelate NiRh$_2$O$_4$ prepared via a solid-state metathesis

description: In spinel-type nickelate NiRh$_2$O$_4$, magnetic ordering is observed upon the sample synthesized via kinetically controlled low-temperature solid-state metathesis, as opposed to previously-reported samples obtained through conventional solid-state reaction. Our findings are based on a combination of bulk susceptibility and specific heat measurements that disclose a N$é$el transition temperature of $T_N$ = 45 K in this material, which might feature spin-orbit entanglement in the tetragonally-coordinated $d^8$ Mott insulators. The emergence of magnetic ordering upon alteration of the synthesis route indicates that the suppression of magnetic ordering in the previous sample was rooted in the cation-mixing assisted by the entropy gain that results from high-temperature reactions. Furthermore, the $J_{\rm eff}$ = 0 physics, instead of solely the spin-only $S = 1$, describes the observed enhancement of effective magnetic moment well. Overseeing all observations and speculations, we propose that the possible mechanism responsible for the emergent magnetic orderings in NiRh$_2$O$_4$ is the condensation of $J_{\rm eff}$ = 0 exciton, driven by the interplay of the tetragonal crystal field and superexchange interactions.

Numerical Simulations Unveil Superradiant Coherence in a Lattice of Charged Quantum Oscillators

description: A system of ${N_{osc}}$ charged oscillators interacting with the electromagnetic field, spatially confined in a 3D lattice of sub-wavelength dimension, can condense into a superradiant coherent state if appropriate density and frequency conditions are met. In this state, the common frequency $ω$ of the oscillators and the plasma frequency $ω_p$ of the charges are combined into a frequency $ω'=\sqrt{ω^2+ω_p^2}$ that is off-shell with respect to the wavelength of the photon modes involved, preventing them from propagating outside the material. Unlike other atomic cavity systems, the frequency $ω$ in this case is not determined by the cavity itself but is defined by the periodic electrostatic potential that confines the charged particles in the lattice. Additionally, the electromagnetic modes involved have wave vectors distributed in all spatial directions, resulting in a significant increase in coupling. The analytical study of this system can be carried out in the limit of large ${N_{osc}}$ by searching for an approximation of the ground state via suitable coherent trial states. Alternatively, numerical simulations can be employed for smaller ${N_{osc}}$. In the numerical approach, it is possible to go beyond the Rotating Wave Approximation (RWA) and introduce a dissipation term for the photon modes. This dissipation term can account for the ohmic quench in a metal and also consider photon losses at the boundary of the material. By utilizing numerical solutions and Monte Carlo simulations, the presence of condensation has been confirmed, and an energy gap of a few electron volts (eV) per particle has been observed in typical metal crystals with protons bound to tetrahedral or octahedral sites.

description: Our first record of the rare and scatteredly distributed Ixeridium sagittarioides for Guizhou, China, triggered a study to assess its systematic position. The species was placed in four different genera in the course of its taxonomic history and was recently treated with doubts as a member of Ixeridium in the Flora of China. Comparative morphological investigation and phylogenetic analyses based on the nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) and five non-coding plastid DNA regions (petD region, psbA-trnH, trnL-trnF, rpl32-trnL (UAG) and 5´rps16-trnQ (UUG) spacers) provided evidence that the species is not a member of Ixeridium and the Crepidinae but has evolved by ancient hybridisation of members of the Lactuca alliance (Lactucinae). It is reinstated as Lactuca sagittarioides and a comprehensive morphological description is provided, based on material from its entire range of distribution.

description: We report on the non-trivial field dependence of charge carrier recombination in an organic blend at low temperatures. A new microwave resonance technique for monitoring charge recombination in organic semiconductors at low temperatures is applied in bulk heterojunction P3HT:PCBM blends with results showing that an external electric field can in fact increase recombination. Monte Carlo simulations suggest that this contradiction to conventional wisdom relates to electron-hole pairs that are separated at donor-acceptor interfaces where the electric field acts in synergy with their Coulomb attraction. For this behaviour to occur a critical initial separation of 5nm between the carriers is required.

enclosure

description: The incompressible stationary 2D Navier-Stokes equations are considered on an unbounded strip domain with a compact obstacle. First, a computer-assisted existence and enclosure result for the velocity (in a suitable divergence-free Sobolev space) is presented. Starting from an approximate solution (computed with divergence-free finite elements), we determine a bound for its defect, and a norm bound for the inverse of the linearization at the approximate solution. For the latter, bounds for the essential spectrum and for eigenvalues play a crucial role, especially for the eigenvalues ``close to'' zero. Note that, on an unbounded domain, the only general method for computing the desired norm bound appears to be via eigenvalue bounds. To obtain the desired lower bounds for the eigenvalues below the essential spectrum we use the Rayleigh-Ritz method, a corollary of the Temple-Lehmann theorem and a homotopy method. Finally, if the computer-assisted proof provides the existence of a velocity field, the existence of a corresponding pressure can be obtained by purely analytical techniques. Nevertheless, for a given approximate solution to the pressure our methods provide an error bound (in a dual norm) as well.

description: The traditional approximation neglects the cosine components of the Coriolis acceleration, and this approximation has been widely used in the study of geophysical phenomena. However, the justification of the traditional approximation is questionable under a few circumstances. In particular, dynamics with substantial vertical velocities or geophysical phenomena in the tropics have non-negligible cosine Coriolis terms. Such cases warrant investigations with the non-traditional setting, i.e. the full Coriolis acceleration. In this manuscript, we study the effect of the non-traditional setting on an isothermal, hydrostatic and compressible atmosphere assuming a meridionally homogeneous flow. Employing linear stability analysis, we show that, given appropriate boundary conditions, i.e. a bottom boundary condition that allows for a vertical energy flux and non-reflecting boundary at the top, the atmosphere at rest becomes prone to a novel unstable mode. The validity of assuming a meridionally homogeneous flow is investigated via scale analysis. Numerical experiments were conducted, and Rayleigh damping was used as a numerical approximation for the non-reflecting top boundary. Our three main results are as follows: (i) experiments involving the full Coriolis terms exhibit an exponentially growing instability, yet experiments subjected to the traditional approximation remain stable; (ii) the experimental instability growth rate is close to the theoretical value; (iii) a perturbed version of the unstable mode arises even under sub-optimal bottom boundary conditions. Finally, we conclude our study by discussing the limitations, implications and remaining open questions. Specifically, the influence on numerical deep-atmosphere models and possible physical interpretations of the unstable mode are discussed.

description: Recent experiments on kagome metals AV3Sb5 (A=K,Rb,Cs) identify twofold van Hove singularities (TvHS) with opposite concavity near the Fermi energy, generating two approximately hexagonal Fermi surfaces – one electron-like and the other hole-like. Here we propose that a TvHS generates a novel time-reversal symmetry breaking excitonic order – arising due to bound pairs of electrons and holes located at opposite concavity van Hove singularities. We introduce a minimal model for the TvHS and investigate interaction induced many-body instabilities via the perturbative renormalisation group technique and a free energy analysis. Specialising to parameters appropriate for the kagome metals AV3Sb5, we construct a phase diagram comprising chiral excitons, charge density wave and a region of coexistence. We propose this as an explanation of a diverse range of experimental observations in AV3Sb5. Notably, the chiral excitonic state gives rise to a quantum anomalous Hall conductance, providing an appealing interpretation of the observed anomalous Hall effect in kagome metals. Possible alternative realisations of the TvHS mechanism in bilayer materials are also discussed. We suggest that TvHS open up interesting possibilities for correlated phases, enriching the set of competing ground states to include excitonic order.

description: High-dimensional linear regression is important in many scientific fields. This article considers discrete measured data of underlying smooth latent processes, as is often obtained from chemical or biological systems. Interpretation in high dimensions is challenging because the nullspace and its interplay with regularization shapes regression coefficients. The data's nullspace contains all coefficients that satisfy $\mathbf{Xw}=\mathbf{0}$, thus allowing very different coefficients to yield identical predictions. We developed an optimization formulation to compare regression coefficients and coefficients obtained by physical engineering knowledge to understand which part of the coefficient differences are close to the nullspace. This nullspace method is tested on a synthetic example and lithium-ion battery data. The case studies show that regularization and z-scoring are design choices that, if chosen corresponding to prior physical knowledge, lead to interpretable regression results. Otherwise, the combination of the nullspace and regularization hinders interpretability and can make it impossible to obtain regression coefficients close to the true coefficients when there is a true underlying linear model. Furthermore, we demonstrate that regression methods that do not produce coefficients orthogonal to the nullspace, such as fused lasso, can improve interpretability. In conclusion, the insights gained from the nullspace perspective help to make informed design choices for building regression models on high-dimensional data and reasoning about potential underlying linear models, which are important for system optimization and improving scientific understanding.

description: The analysis of the publications devoted to the research of the mechanisms of the therapeutic effect of one of the most known low level laser therapy techniques -laser blood illumination, as well as the analysis of its long application experience allow us to speak with confidence about the prospects of this trend. Moreover, both methods: intravenous laser blood illumination (ILBI) and non-invasive laser blood illumination (NLBI) are developing independently, since each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. The replacement of UV blood illumination with UV lamps by laser ultraviolet blood illumination (LUV-BI®) has significantly simplified the technique and increased its efficiency. The most efficient options for ILBI are combined techniques: ILBI-635 + LUVBI® and ILBI-525 + LUVBI®. The most efficient technique for NLBI is the use of low-intensity pulsed laser light with a wavelength of 635 nm and power of up to 40 W.

description: Models are heavily used in software engineering and together with their systems they evolve over time. Thus, managing their changes is an important challenge for system maintainability. Existing approaches to model differencing concentrate on heuristics matching between model elements and on finding and presenting differences at a concrete or abstract syntactic level. While showing some success, these approaches are inherently limited to comparing syntactic structures. This paper is a manifesto for research on semantic model differencing. We present our vision to develop semantic diff operators for model comparisons: operators whose input consists of two models and whose output is a set of diff witnesses, instances of one model that are not instances of the other. In particular, if the models are syntactically different but there are no diff witnesses, the models are semantically equivalent. We demonstrate our vision using two concrete diff operators, for class diagrams and for activity diagrams. We motivate the use of semantic diff operators, brie y discuss the algorithms to compute them, list related challenges, and show their application and potential use as new fundamental building blocks for change management in model-driven engineering.

description: To advance the foundation of one-particle reduced density matrix functional theory (1RDMFT), we refine and relate some of its fundamental features and underlying concepts. We define by concise means the scope of a 1RDMFT, identify its possible natural variables, and explain how symmetries could be exploited. In particular, for systems with time-reversal symmetry, we explain why there exist six equivalent universal functionals, prove concise relations among them, and conclude that the important notion of v-representability is relative to the scope and choice of variable. All these fundamental concepts are then comprehensively discussed and illustrated for the Hubbard dimer and its generalization to arbitrary pair interactions W. For this, we derive by analytical means the pure and ensemble functionals with respect to both the real- and complex-valued Hilbert space. The comparison of various functionals allows us to solve the underlying v-representability problems analytically, and the dependence of its solution on the pair interaction is demonstrated. Intriguingly, the gradient of each universal functional is found to always diverge repulsively on the boundary of the domain. In that sense, this key finding emphasizes the universal character of the fermionic exchange force, recently discovered and proven in the context of translationally invariant one-band lattice models.

description: In this paper, we carry out a new model-independent cosmological test for the cosmic distance duality relation~(CDDR) by combining the latest five baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements and the Pantheon type Ia supernova (SNIa) sample. Particularly, the BAO measurement from extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey~(eBOSS) data release~(DR) 16 quasar sample at effective redshift $z=1.48$ is used, and two methods, i.e. a compressed form of Pantheon sample and the Artificial Neural Network~(ANN) combined with the binning SNIa method, are applied to overcome the redshift-matching problem. Our results suggest that the CDDR is compatible with the observations, and the high-redshift BAO and SNIa data can effectively strengthen the constraints on the violation parameters of CDDR with the confidence interval decreasing by more than 20 percent. In addition, we find that the compressed form of observational data can provide a more rigorous constraint on the CDDR, and thus can be generalized to the applications of other actual observational data with limited sample size in the test for CDDR.

description: Haemonchus contortus is the most pathogenic nematode in small ruminants and anthelmintic resistance (AR) hampers its efficient control. Early detection of AR status is required to reduce selection for AR and cannot be achieved using phenotypic tests. For benzimidazoles (BZs), the detection of AR-associated alleles characterised by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the isotype 1 β-tubulin gene allows early AR detection in strongyles. The F200Y, F167Y, E198A and E198L polymorphisms have been described in BZ-resistant populations with a clear variation in frequencies between regions. A novel digital PCR (dPCR) enables the detection of all of the above-described polymorphisms in H. contortus. Assays were validated using synthetic DNA fragments containing these SNPs. Then, larvae obtained and pooled at farm level from 26 Austrian and 10 Italian sheep farms were analysed. For all assays a detection limit of 15 copies/μl of resistance alleles and a high level of accuracy were demonstrated, allowing to detect allele frequencies of 1% in most samples. In Austrian samples, elevated frequencies of F200Y resistance alleles were detected on all farms. Polymorphisms in codon 167 and codon 198 were identified in H. contortus from Austria for the first time. In Italian samples, the frequency of resistance alleles was still comparatively low, but F200Y resistance alleles were traceable. In conclusion we developed for the first time dPCR assays that target all SNPs of relevance associated with BZ-resistance in H. contortus. Future research on AR development could benefit from an early onset of SNP-based surveillance that would include the developed assays for all SNPs of relevance. Improved surveillance in the long term will include other important, though less pathogenic, nematode genera in the analyses.

description: In this paper, we investigate cooperative vehicle coordination for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) at unsignalized intersections. To support high traffic throughput while reducing computational complexity, we present a novel collision region model and decompose the optimal coordination problem into two sub-problems: \textit{centralized} priority scheduling and \textit{distributed} trajectory planning. Then, we propose a bi-level coordination framework which includes: (i) a Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS)-based high-level priority scheduler aims to find high-quality passing orders to maximize traffic throughput, and (ii) a priority-based low-level trajectory planner that generates optimal collision-free control inputs. Simulation results demonstrate that our bi-level strategy achieves near-optimal coordination performance, comparable to state-of-the-art centralized strategies, and significantly outperform the traffic signal control systems in terms of traffic throughput. Moreover, our approach exhibits good scalability, with computational complexity scaling linearly with the number of vehicles.

description:  Abstract: Biopolymer microparticles have been developed for applications that require biocom?patibility and biodegradability, such as drug delivery. In this study, we assessed the production of microparticles using carnauba wax, κ-carrageenan, alginate, and poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) with the aim of developing a novel, DNA-tracer-loaded, biopolymer surrogate with a size, shape, surface charge, and relative hydrophobicity similar to stationary-phase Legionella pneumophila to mimic the bacteria’s mobility and persistence in engineered water systems. We found that the type and concentration of biopolymer, reaction conditions, and synthesis methods affected the morphology, surface charge, relative hydrophobicity, and DNA tracer loading efficiency of the biopolymer microparticles produced. Carnauba wax, κ-carrageenan, and alginate (Protanal®, and low and medium viscosity) produced highly polydisperse microspheres. In contrast, PLGA and alginate-CaCO3 produced uniform microspheres and rod-shaped microparticles, respectively, with high DNA tracer loading efficiencies (PLGA 70% and alginate-CaCO3 95.2 ± 5.7%) and high re?producibilities. Their synthesis reproducibility was relatively high. The relative hydrophobicity of PLGA microspheres closely matched the cell surface hydrophobicity of L. pneumophila but not the bacterial morphology, whereas the polyelectrolyte layer-by-layer assembly was required to enhance the relative hydrophobicity of alginate-CaCO3 microparticles. Following this surface modification, alginate-CaCO3 microparticles represented the best match to L. pneumophila in size, morphology, surface charge, and relative hydrophobicity. This new biopolymer surrogate has the potential to be used as a mimic to study the mobility and persistence of L. pneumophila in water systems where the use of the pathogen is impractical and unsafe.

description: Operationally simple strategies to assemble boron containing organic frameworks are highly enabling in organic synthesis. While conventional retrosynthetic logic has engendered many platforms focusing on the direct formation of C−B bonds, α-boryl radicals have recently reemerged as versatile open-shell alternatives to access organoborons via adjacent C−C bond formation. Direct light-enabled α-activation is currently contingent on photo- or transition metal-catalysis activation to efficiently generate radical species. Here, we disclose a facile activation of α-halo boronic esters using only visible light and a simple Lewis base to enable homolytic scission. Intermolecular addition to styrenes facilitates the rapid construction of highly versatile E-allylic boronic esters. The simplicity of activation permits the strategic merger of this construct with selective energy transfer catalysis to enable the complimentary stereodivergent synthesis of Z-allylic boronic esters.

description: Using direct numerical simulations of Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC), we perform a comparative study of the spectra and fluxes of energy and entropy, and the scaling of large-scale quantities for large and infinite Prandtl numbers in two (2D) and three (3D) dimensions. We observe close similarities between the 2D and 3D RBC, in particular the kinetic energy spectrum $E_u(k) \sim k^{-13/3}$, and the entropy spectrum exhibits a dual branch with a dominant $k^{-2}$ spectrum. We showed that the dominant Fourier modes in the 2D and 3D flows are very close. Consequently, the 3D RBC is quasi two-dimensional, which is the reason for the similarities between the 2D and 3D RBC for large- and infinite Prandtl numbers.

description: We present a BVI photometric study of four old open clusters (OCs) in the Milky Way Galaxy, Czernik 30, Berkeley 34, Berkeley 75, and Berkeley 76 using the observation data obtained with the SMARTS 1.0 m telescope at the CTIO, Chile. These four OCs are located at the anti-Galactocentric direction and in the Galactic plane. We determine the fundamental physical parameters for the four OCs, such as age, metallicity, distance modulus, and color excess, using red clump and PARSEC isochrone fitting methods after finding center and size of the four OCs. These four old OCs are 2-3 Gyr old and 6 - 8 kpc away from the Sun. The metallicity ([Fe/H]) values of the four OCs are between -0.6 and 0.0 dex. We combine data for these four OCs with those for old OCs from five literatures resulting in 236 objects to investigate Galactic radial metallicity distribution. The gradient of a single linear fit for this Galactocentric [Fe/H] distribution is -0.052 +/- 0.004 dex/kpc. If we assume the existence of a discontinuity in this radial metallicity distribution, the gradient at Galactocentric radius < 12 kpc is -0.070 +/- 0.006 dex/kpc, while that at the outer part is -0.016 +/- 0.010 which is flatter than that of the inner part. Although there are not many sample clusters at the outer part, the broken linear fit seems to better follow the observation data.

description: We demonstrate the application of artificial neural network (ANN) models to reverse Monte Carlo based thermodynamic calculations. Adsorption isotherms are generated for 2D square and triangular lattices. These lattices are considered because of their importance to catalytic applications. In general, configurational free energy terms that arise from adsorbate arrangements are challenging to handle and are typically evaluated using computationally expensive Monte Carlo simulations. We show that a combination of reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) and ANN model can provide an accurate estimate of the configurational free energy. The ANN model is trained/constructed using data generated with the help of RMC simulations. Adsorption isotherms are accurately obtained for a range of adsorbate-adsorbate interactions, coverages and temperatures within few seconds on a desktop computer using this method. The results are validated by comparing to MC calculations. Additionally, H adsorption on Ni(100) surface is studied using the ANN/RMC approach.
