description: We consider the scattering of lightlike matter in the presence of a heavy scalar object (such as the Sun or a Schwarzschild black hole). By treating general relativity as an effective field theory we directly compute the nonanalytic components of the one-loop gravitational amplitude for the scattering of massless scalars or photons from an external massive scalar field. These results allow a semiclassical computation of the bending angle for light rays grazing the Sun, including long-range $\hbar$ contributions. We discuss implications of this computation, in particular the violation of some classical formulations of the equivalence principle.

title: Modelling election poll data using time series analysis
Creators: name: Rodrigues, David Francis
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: There is much interest in election forecasting in the UK. On election night, fore­casts are made and revised as the night progresses and seats declare results. We propose a new time series model which may be used in this context. Firstly, we have statistical models for the polls conducted in a run-up to the election; the model produces the distribution of voting amongst the parties. The key here is the use of modelling the probability of voting each poll as latent variables. Secondly, we use this information in the forecasting of the inevitable outcome, continually revising our forecasts as the actual declarations are made, until we can actually determine what we believe the final outcome to be, before it actually happens. We outline the nature and history of elections in the UK, and provide an account of time series analysis. These tools, as well as the theoretical basis of our method, the h-likelihood, are then applied to the creation of each of our models proposed. We study simulations of the models and then fit the models to actual data to assess forecasting accuracy, using existing models for comparison.

description: Enhancing product ergonomics is becoming increasingly important in the development of human-machine systems. But it requires a high development effort due to costly iterations of physical prototypes and user studies. The use of digital human, product, and interaction models as well as an optimizer redesigning the product using ergonomic assessment and optimization algorithms has the potential of reducing this effort. Since there is a variety of methods and models for the ergonomic assessment and design optimization, a systematic literature review based on the PRISMA statement is presented, analyzing 22 relevant studies. The information of application context, ergonomic assessment methods including human posture, external and internal physical human stress, and product design methods were extracted. Research gaps were identified and further research projects were derived. These gaps involve the appropriate selection of ergonomic assessment measures and criteria, a formulation of an objective function based on the ergonomic assessment, and the selection of suitable design parameters for the ergonomic design optimization. These research questions are to be answered based on a specific use case which is to be selected.
iQonic_D3.5 Smart tagging for automatic setting-up the process chain parameters
Creators: name: Sensap
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: This report (D3.5 Smart tagging for automatic setting-up the process chain parameters) deals with the definition, design and implementation of the Smart Tagging system. The Smart Tagging System tends to a) transform a product to a smart product according to industry 4.0 specifications following its life cycle and b) to provide a mechanism for automatic machinery setup during the production phase.
 Special pocket-less gel-assisted die trays, that are used to carry and transport sensitive optoelectronic devices between different production stages of an optoelectronic product, are selected as smart devices. Each die tray is divided to several cells, where optoelectronic devices can be mounted and transported. Each cell can be used for a limited number of mounts. The smart product will contain all information about its health status and furthermore, the Smart Tagging System will be able to suggest the best mapping available every time a die tray is going to be filled with optoelectronic devices, extending this way its lifetime.
 In parallel, the die tray is used to feed the assembly line with optoelectronic devices. Each time a die tray is put in the machinery, the Smart Tagging System provides the necessary information to the machinery in order to recall device mapping inside the die tray from the ALPES logistics System. This approach reduces the setup time for the machinery.
 Note that the present version of the deliverable represents the design and the prototype implementation of the Smart Tagging System that was tested in lab environment. During WP7 “Integration & Testing – Validation” the system will be further developed, receiving feedback from the integration with other components and – furthermore – from the use cases implementation.

description: Lithium Niobate (LN or just niobate) thin-film micro-photonic resonators have promising prospects in many applications including high efficiency electro-optic modulators, optomechanics and nonlinear optics. This paper presents free-standing thin-film lithium niobate photonic resonators on a silicon platform using MEMS fabrication technology. We fabricated a 35um radius niobate disk resonator that exhibits high intrinsic optical quality factor (Q) of 484,000. Exploiting the optomechanical interaction from the released free-standing structure and high optical Q, we were able to demonstrate acousto-optic modulation from these devices by exciting a 56MHz radial breathing mechanical mode (mechanical Q of 2700) using a probe.

В качестве целостного компонента модели автоматизированной системы управления используется Е-сетевая взаимосвязанная иерархическая структура, имитирующая поведение человека-оператора или коллектива операторов, а также тепловые режимы и ее надежность. Полученная математическая модель управления позволяет получать и анализировать информацию о структуре и поведении исследуемой системы с учетом действий оператора технологического процесса.
description: The article considers a comprehensive approach to building analytical and simulation models of automated control systems. The well-known network approach is used as a modeling formalism, which allows effectively forming models that take into account heterogeneous parallel processes in engineering systems. As an integral component of the model for an automated control system, the E-network interconnected hierarchical structure is used that simulates not only behavior but also thermal modes and reliability. The derived mathematical model provides information about the structure and behavior of the system under study, taking into account the work process of the operator group.

Quality Assurance of Heterogenous Data

description: This deliverable (titled “Standardisation and Quality Assurance of Heterogenous Data II”) describes the initial implementations and first prototypes of the iHelp Standardisation and Quality Assurance Mechanism. As introduced in D3.7 – “Standardisation and Quality Assurance of Heterogenous Data I”, the Standardisation and Quality Assurance Mechanism is a unified and integrated mechanism consisting of three (3) core sub-components, the Data Cleaner, the Data Qualifier, the Data Harmonizer, and two (2) integrated sub-components: the Primary Data Mapper and the Secondary Data Mapper, which are responsible for providing the mapping operations between the raw data resources and the Holistic Health Records (HHRs) resources. This holistic mechanism is the core component that seeks to provide various cleaning, pre-processing, harmonization, and mapping functionalities and services on the incoming raw data. Specifically, it provides to the wider research and healthcare community a wide range of innovative solutions for the cleaning, qualification, transformation, harmonization, and mapping of raw healthcare-related data.
 The current document builds upon the initial design and specifications of D3.7 – “Standardisation and Quality Assurance of Heterogenous Data I”, aiming to provide the initial implementation, the first prototypes and a concrete overview of how the proposed mechanism integrates with the overall architecture of the iHelp platform and other components in the Data Ingestion pipeline, and specifically (i) how to retrieve the incoming data from the Data Gateways; (ii) how to interexchange data with the already identified project’s message bus; and (iii) how to send the final processed, transformed and HHR aligned data to iHelp’s Big Data Platform.
 To support the aforementioned functionalities, the iHelp Standardisation and Quality Assurance Mechanism specifications exemplify the respective sub-components, the overall data pipeline and workflow, the internal functionalities supported by each sub-component, the interaction points with different components as well as the technical details that drive the implementation and deployment of this holistic mechanism. Finally, this document - in different subsections, e.g., in Section 5.2, - seeks to review the current state of the art in order to identify the baseline technologies and approaches for the realization of the implemented Standardisation and Quality Assurance Mechanism.

description: В статье рассматривается задача анализа транспортных потоков при наблюдении неподвижным видеодатчиком за участком дороги. Представлен алгоритм слежения за движущимися по полосам транспортными средствами. Алгоритм включает этап выделения особых точек части объекта, находящихся в ограниченной области изображения. Извлечение области производится на основе результатов предварительной сегментации и информации о геометрии сцены. Второй этап алгоритма использует пирамидальный метод Лукаса – Канаде с целью слежения за транспортным средством. Рассмотрены положительные особенности данного метода вычисления оптического потока, предложены подходы к оптимизации вычислительных затрат с учетом информации о направлении и скорости движения объекта. Разработанный алгоритм слежения апробирован в ходе экспериментальных исследований на натурных видеосюжетах, на которых наблюдается движение транспортных средств по нескольким полосам. Результаты экспериментальных исследований показали эффективность предложенного алгоритма в сравнении с базовым алгоритмом обнаружения движущегося объекта без дальнейшего прослеживания. В результате уменьшилось число ложных обнаружений и пропусков автомобилей, доля ошибок классификации объектов, что говорит о повышении точности оценки длины и скорости транспортных средств.
description: The paper considers the task of traffic flow analysis when a stationary video sensor observes a road section. An algorithm for tracking vehicles moving along road lanes is presented. This algorithm includes the stage of extracting feature points of the object part located in a bounded area of the image. Object area extraction is based on preliminary segmentation results and information about scene geometry. The second stage of the algorithm uses the Lucas–Kanade method with pyramids to track the vehicle. The positive features of this method for optical flow calculation are considered. Approaches to optimizing computational costs in optical flow calculations are proposed. Information about movement direction and speed of the vehicle is used for this purpose. The developed tracking algorithm has been tested during experimental studies. The studies were carried out using real videos оn which vehicle movement on several road lanes is observed. The results of experimental studies have shown the high performance of the proposed algorithm in comparison with the basic algorithm for moving object detection without further tracking. As a result, the number of false detections and omissions of vehicles decreased. The percentage of classification errors also decreased which indicates an increase in the accuracy of estimating the length and speed of detected vehicles.

description: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, progressive autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. Persons with MS report a broad variety of physical, psychological, and social difficulties, including fatigue, affect dysregulation, and decreased social participation. Compared to the general population, persons with MS report higher levels of ill-being and lower levels of well-being. However, much remains to be learned about how MS is associated with indicators of ill-being (i.e. depression, anxiety, insomnia, paresthesia, pain, fatigue, alexithymia, cognitive disengagement syndrome, negative affect) and well-being (i.e. quality of life and positive affect). More specifically, none of the previous studies considered (a) a broad assessment of ill- and well-being in one study, and (b) examined the novel sub-domains and constructs involved in the overall ill- and well-being. By examining the differences and similarities in a broad variety of constructs of ill- and well-being between individuals with MS and general population, we are interested in earning a better understanding of the ill- and well-being associated with living with a chronic illness such as MS.

description: The spectrum of a finite group is the set of its elements orders. Groups are said to be isospectral if their spectra coincide. For every finite simple exceptional group $L=E_7(q)$, we prove that each finite group isospectral to $L$ is isomorphic to a group $G$ squeezed between $L$ and its automorphism group, that is $L\leq G\leq \operatorname{Aut}L$; in particular, up-to isomorphism, there are only finitely many such groups. This assertion, together with a series of previously obtained results, implies that the same is true for every finite simple exceptional group except the group ${}^3D_4(2)$.

description: In my presentation, I report on the results of extended end-to-end simulations of deep- and wide-field surveys with the Athena Wide-Field Imager (WFI). These simulations take advantage of the SIXTE tool to flexibly test different telescope configurations, and are performed using newly developed mock catalogs of active galactic nuclei (AGN), non-active galaxies and clusters. I will show how Athena-WFI will allow us to perform a whole new kind of X-ray science by detecting for the first time a new population of targets, that has so far been missed by X-ray surveys. These targets include, for example, hundreds of AGN at z>6, as well as thousands of galaxies up to z~5 where the X-ray emission is coming from processes other than supermassive black hole accretion.

description: In addition to a growing and aging population, Canada has experienced large shifts in its residential sector. There are more households, homes are larger with less people in them, and there are more appliances per household, all of which contribute to increased energy consumption. The present work explores the demographic determinants of residential energy efficiency adoption using the 2013 Households and Environment Survey. With binary logistic regressions, we predicted the odds of households adopting three energy-efficient actions: energy-saving lights, programmable thermostats, and changes to a dwelling following an energy audit. Although it was found that Canadian households are participating in energy efficiency, not all groups are participating equally. Similar to previous research, seniors appear to be more inclined to adopt less challenging measures such as energy-saving lights, as opposed to more intensive dwelling upgrades. Additionally, levels of education and income were positively related to the adoption of energy efficiency measures. However, the results showed household income to be less of a contributing factor for decisions regarding dwelling changes compared to the financial incentives offered via government grants. The results suggest a need to increase energy efficiency education and to continue offering financial incentives as the country increases its residential energy efficiency.
Lying for yourself or for others: does confession impacts moral costs?
Creators: name: Silva, Antonio S.
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: The neoclassical economics assumes that people would lie whenever the benefits of lying exceeds its costs, no matter if the decisions are individual or strategical. This view contrasts with the growing body of experimental evidence that has been showing that not everyone lies (see e.g., Gneezy, 2005, Shalvi et al., 2011a, Shalvi et al., 2011b, Fischbacher and Föllmi-Heusi, 2013, Gaetcher S., Schulz J., 2016, Abeler et al., 2019), and those that do, do it for different motives besides self-interest, such as altruism or efficiency-seeking. (Erat, and Gneezy, 2012, Chakravarty and Maximiano, working paper). If individuals have moral preferences, when deciding whether to tell the truth or a lie, they will judge the morality of their actions and act accordingly. Our study investigates whether the religious act of confession changes the moral costs of lying. For instance, confessing the sins to a priest and the following act of contraction makes the moral costs of lying more salient and a lie more condemnable? Or, is it the case that confession brings moral relief, making people judge less badly deceptive behavior? We will conduct a field experiment in the World Youth Day Lisbon 2023 in which participants are asked to play the die-under-the-cup paradigm Fischbacher and FöllmiHeusi (2013) and measure whether they are more likely to tell a selfish lie or a an altruistic one, by conducting two different treatments. In one, the benefits from lying are exclusively for the individual that lies and, in another treatment, the gains from lying are for an NGO. An event of the size of the WYD, which is expected to attract more than one million supportive, motivated, and inspiring young people from all around the World to Lisbon is a unique opportunity to study human behavior.
Causal Intuition and Delayed-Choice Experiments

description: The conventional explanation of delayed-choice experiments appears to violate our causal intuition at the quantum level. I reanalyze these experiments using time-reversed and time-symmetric formulations of quantum mechanics. The time-reversed formulation does not give the same experimental predictions. The time-symmetric formulation gives the same experimental predictions but actually violates our causal intuition at the quantum level. I explore the reasons why our causal intuition may be wrong at the quantum level, suggest how conventional causation might be recovered in the classical limit, propose a quantum analog to the classical block universe viewpoint, and speculate on implications of the time-symmetric formulation for cosmological boundary conditions.

Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: This document outlines the hypotheses to be tested and the specifications to be used in one study on how perceptions of potentially morally questionable behaviors are rated as unacceptable or acceptable depending on the gender of those who performed the actions. We will run a large-scale field experiment with the pilgrims of the World Youth Day (WYD) that takes place in Lisbon in the first week of August 2023. Half of the respondents of our survey will be asked to rate, on a scale from one to six, three generic (mis)behaviors from three different hypothetical males while the other half will be faced with female names. We will then compare the differences in an econometric framework. In addition, we will test if the gender of the enumerator (we plan to have around 30 young assistants, most of them students at ISEG – University of Lisbon and Nova SBE) changes how pilgrims at the WYD respond to these questions. Finally, we will ask if people have confessed or are planning to confess to analyze potential heterogeneous effects.

description: We investigate the Robust Multiperiod Network Design Problem, a generalization of the Capacitated Network Design Problem (CNDP) that, besides establishing flow routing and network capacity installation as in a canonical CNDP, also considers a planning horizon made up of multiple time periods and protection against fluctuations in traffic volumes. As a remedy against traffic volume uncertainty, we propose a Robust Optimization model based on Multiband Robustness (Büsing and D'Andreagiovanni, 2012), a refinement of classical Gamma-Robustness by Bertsimas and Sim that uses a system of multiple deviation bands. Since the resulting optimization problem may prove very challenging even for instances of moderate size solved by a state-of-the-art optimization solver, we propose a hybrid primal heuristic that combines a randomized fixing strategy inspired by ant colony optimization, which exploits information coming from linear relaxations of the problem, and an exact large neighbourhood search. Computational experiments on a set of realistic instances from the SNDlib show that our original heuristic can run fast and produce solutions of extremely high quality associated with low optimality gaps.

description: In the framework of finite games in extensive form with perfect information and strict preferences, this paper introduces a new equilibrium concept: the Perfect Prediction Equilibrium (PPE). In the Nash paradigm, rational players consider that the opponent's strategy is fixed while maximizing their payoff. The PPE, on the other hand, models the behavior of agents with an alternate form of rationality that involves a Stackelberg competition with the past. Agents with this form of rationality integrate in their reasoning that they have such accurate logical and predictive skills, that the world is fully transparent: all players share the same knowledge and know as much as an omniscient external observer. In particular, there is common knowledge of the solution of the game including the reached outcome and the thought process leading to it. The PPE is stable given each player's knowledge of its actual outcome and uses no assumptions at unreached nodes. This paper gives the general definition and construction of the PPE as a fixpoint problem, proves its existence, uniqueness and Pareto optimality, and presents two algorithms to compute it. Finally, the PPE is put in perspective with existing literature (Newcomb's Problem, Superrationality, Nash Equilibrium, Subgame Perfect Equilibrium, Backward Induction Paradox, Forward Induction).

description: Książka porusza problematykę transgresji, przekraczania, łamania granic, wychodzenia poza ograniczenia wg. dziewiętnastu autorów dzieła, w twórczości ale przecież dotyczy to każdego innego aspektu życia człowieka. Transgresja towarzyszy również uprawianiu psychologii czy pedagogiki jako nauk społecznych. Monografię ująć można w postaci trzech części. Pierwsza część to: Kontekst psychologiczny transgresyjnego wymiaru twórczości. Artykuły tutaj zawarte są nie tylko teoretycznymi rozważaniami nad ogólnymi zagadnieniami twórczości i jej kontekstem przekraczania zastanego, ale też wnoszą narracyjne, osobiste wątki związane z „podróżami w twórczość”. Drugą część książki zatytułowano Kontekst podmiotowy, rodzinny i edukacyjny transgresyjnego wymiaru twórczości. Obejmuje szerokie spektrum tematyczne wpływu rodziny i edukacji oraz uwarunkowań środowiskowych na transgresyjny rozwój twórczości jednostki, analizując kreatywne postrzegania siebie, swoich zasobów, kładąc nacisk na budowanie twórczej tożsamości, które to konstrukty mają zasadniczy wpływ na kształtowanie się poczucia twórczej samoskuteczności, a powiązane ze sobą wzmacniają osiągnięcia twórcze jednostki. Trzecia część książki nosi tytuł Psychologia i praktyka – przykłady transgresji twórczej. Stanowi ją pięć artykułów przedstawiających zróżnicowaną problematykę odnoszącą się do różnorodnych aspektów twórczej transgresji, kiedy to psychologia zbliża się do życia, czyli nabiera znaczenia pragmatycznego dla współczesnego człowieka.

description: This paper gives a complete classification of the possible ergodic decompositions for certain open families of volume-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. These families include systems with compact center leaves and perturbations of Anosov flows under conditions on the dimensions of the invariant subbundles. The paper further shows that the non-open accessibility classes form a $C^1$ lamination and gives results about the accessibility classes of non-volume-preserving systems. Note: this document has been modified slightly from earlier preprints. The numbering of sections was changed to match the published version and an erratum has been added to the end.

description: We prove that all valid Herbrand equalities can be inter-procedurally inferred for programs where all assignments whose right-hand sides depend on at most one variable are taken into account. The analysis is based on procedure summaries representing the weakest pre-conditions for finitely many generic post-conditions with template variables. In order to arrive at effective representations for all occurring weakest pre-conditions, we show for almost all values possibly computed at run-time, that they can be uniquely factorized into tree patterns and a ground term. Moreover, we introduce an approximate notion of subsumption which is effectively decidable and ensures that finite conjunctions of equalities may not grow infinitely. Based on these technical results, we realize an effective fixpoint iteration to infer all inter-procedurally valid Herbrand equalities for these programs. Finally we show that an invariant candidate with a constant number of variables, can be verified in polynomial time.

description: Mining labeled subgraph is a popular research task in data mining because of its potential application in many different scientific domains. All the existing methods for this task explicitly or implicitly solve the subgraph isomorphism task which is computationally expensive, so they suffer from the lack of scalability problem when the graphs in the input database are large. In this work, we propose FS^3, which is a sampling based method. It mines a small collection of subgraphs that are most frequent in the probabilistic sense. FS^3 performs a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling over the space of a fixed-size subgraphs such that the potentially frequent subgraphs are sampled more often. Besides, FS^3 is equipped with an innovative queue manager. It stores the sampled subgraph in a finite queue over the course of mining in such a manner that the top-k positions in the queue contain the most frequent subgraphs. Our experiments on database of large graphs show that FS^3 is efficient, and it obtains subgraphs that are the most frequent amongst the subgraphs of a given size.

description: In an $SU(3)_{c}\times SU(2)_{L}\times SU(2)_{R}\times U(1)_{B-L}$ left-right symmetric framework, we present a new leptogenesis scenario parametrized by Dirac neutrino mass matrix. Benefited from the parity symmetry motivated to solve the strong CP problem, the dimensionless couplings of the mirror fields are identified to those of the ordinary fields. In particular, the mirror Dirac neutrinos have a heavy mass matrix proportional to the light mass matrix of the ordinary Dirac neutrinos. Through the $SU(2)_R$ gauge interactions, the mirror neutrinos can decay to generate a lepton asymmetry in the mirror muons and an opposite lepton asymmetry in the mirror electrons. Before the $SU(2)_L$ sphaleron processes stop working, the mirror muons can efficiently decay into the ordinary right-handed leptons with a dark matter scalar and hence the mirror muon asymmetry can be partially converted to a desired baryon asymmetry.

description: We present new calculations of Rosseland and Planck gaseous mean opacities relevant to the atmospheres of giant planets and ultracool dwarfs. Such calculations are used in modeling the atmospheres, interiors, formation, and evolution of these objects. Our calculations are an expansion of those presented in Freedman et al. (2008) to include lower pressures, finer temperature resolution, and also the higher metallicities most relevant for giant planet atmospheres. Calculations span 1 microbar to 300 bar, and 75 K to 4000 K, in a nearly square grid. Opacities at metallicities from solar to 50 times solar abundances are calculated. We also provide an analytic fit to the Rosseland mean opacities over the grid in pressure, temperature, and metallicity. In addition to computing mean opacities at these local temperatures, we also calculate them with weighting functions up to 7000 K, to simulate the mean opacities for incident stellar intensities, rather than locally thermally emitted intensities. The chemical equilibrium calculations account for the settling of condensates in a gravitational field and are applicable to cloud-free giant planet and ultracool dwarf atmospheres, but not circumstellar disks. We provide our extensive opacity tables for public use.

Parabolic arcs of the multicorns: Real-analyticity of Hausdorff dimension, and singularities of $\mathrm{Per}_n(1)$ curves

description: The boundaries of the hyperbolic components of odd period of the multicorns contain real-analytic arcs consisting of quasi-conformally conjugate parabolic parameters. One of the main results of this paper asserts that the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia sets is a real-analytic function of the parameter along these parabolic arcs. This is achieved by constructing a complex one-dimensional quasiconformal deformation space of the parabolic arcs which are contained in the dynamically defined algebraic curves $\mathrm{Per}_n(1)$ of a suitably complexified family of polynomials. As another application of this deformation step, we show that the dynamically natural parametrization of the parabolic arcs has a non-vanishing derivative at all but (possibly) finitely many points. We also look at the algebraic sets $\mathrm{Per}_n(1)$ in various families of polynomials, the nature of their singularities, and the `dynamical' behavior of these singular parameters.

Identifying quiescent compact objects in massive single-lined spectroscopic binaries
Creators: name: Janssens, Soetkin

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Many recently reported quiescent compact objects in massive binaries (OB+BHs) have been refuted by follow-up studies, leaving very few accepted candidates. Here, I present some of those accepted candidates and the detection method. Spectral disentangling is a very powerful tool for the detection of very faint companions in systems having flux ratios lower than 5%. By using this method, two OB+BHs were found, one in the Milky Way (MW) and one in the Tarantula region in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This presentation is based on work done in Many et al. (2022), Shenar et al. (2022a,b), and Banyard et al. (2022a,b). HD130298 (Mahy et al. 2022), a newly discovered O+BH in the MW, is a 25 + (>7) Msun system, with a period of ~14d and an eccentricity e = 0.5. This indicates that the BH in HD130298 likely formed with a strong kick, giving rise to the question whether BHs are formed through fallback. This could also be backed up by the B+BH candidate V* V946 Sco in the young MW cluster NGC6231, which has a period of ~100d and e=0.32 (Banyard et al. 2022b). In the LMC, VFTS 243 is a 25 + 10 Msun O+BH system with a period of ~10d and e < 0.03 (shear et al. 2022a). The low eccentricity indicates this system formed without a kick and that very little mass was lost during the formation (< 1.1 Msun). This gives clear evidence that BHs form through direct collapse in nature.

description: Der vorliegende Text geht der Frage nach, ob und inwiefern sich in die politisch-administrativen Planung und Umsetzung der Alterspolitik in Schweizer Kommunen Ansätze von New Public Governance (NPG) finden lassen. Die Ergebnisse der explorativen Studie, in der 15 unterschiedlich grosse Kommunen untersucht wurden, zeigen einzelne NPG-Elemente. Besonders in den grösseren Schweizer Städten wurden verschiedene Formen von Netzwerkkooperationen gefunden: zum einen verwaltungsinterne, abteilungsübergreifende Zusammenarbeitsnetzwerke und zum anderen institutionalisierte Netzwerkkooperationen mit verwaltungsexternen Akteuren wie z.B. mit Dienstleistungsanbietern, Fachpersonen oder interessierten Bürgerinnen und Bürgern, die für die Gestaltung der Alterspolitik relevant sind. Der Artikel schliesst mit Überlegungen, wie NPG Ansätze gestärkt und weiterentwickelt werden könnten.

description: In characteristic 0 there are essentially two approaches to the conjectural theory of mixed motives, one due to Nori and the other one due to, independently, Hanamura, Levine, and Voevodsky. Although these approaches are apriori quite different it is expected that ultimately they can be reduced to one another. In this article we provide some evidence for this belief by proving that their associated motivic Galois groups are canonically isomorphic.

Formation of high-mass merging binary black holes through stable mass transfer and super-Eddington accretion
Creators: name: Briel, Max M.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The most striking features of the observed merging primary black hole mass distributions are the extended tail up to 100 solar masses and an excess of masses at 35 solar masses. Currently, isolated binary population synthesis have difficulty explaining these features. Using the well-tested BPASS detailed stellar binary evolution models to determine mass transfer stability, accretion rates, and remnant masses, we postulate that stable mass transfer with super-Eddington accretion is responsible for the extended tail. These systems are able to merge within the Hubble time due to more stable mass transfer at higher donor masses with higher mass ratios and spin-orbit coupling allowing the orbits to shrink sufficiently. Furthermore, we find that in BPASS the 35 solar masses excess is not due to pulsational pair-instability, as previously thought, but a feature caused by stable mass transfer, whose regime is limited by the mass transfer stability, quasi-homogeneous evolution, and stellar winds. These findings are at odds with those from other population synthesis codes but in agreement with other recent studies using detailed binary evolution models.
