description: We continue to investigate possible parameter choices for primordial inflation with simple potentials such as power-law and two-term potentials. We examine the amount of parameter tuning to make the slow-roll inflation eternal. In particular, we adopt the critical coupling for marginally eternal inflation and see whether realistic primordial inflation is attainable under such a parameter choice. It turns out that potentials with mass scale of grand unification provide, after tuning, consistent results to experimental data so that the considered tuning is allowed observationally. Namely, the primordial inflation is possibly marginal in such a setup.

description: In this paper, utilizing the generalized off shell Helmholtz free energy, we explore the topological numbers of the four-dimensional static accelerating black hole and its AdS extension, as well as the static charged accelerating black hole and its AdS extension. Our analysis reveals a profound and significant impact of the acceleration parameter on the topological numbers associated with the static black holes; and different values (nonzero) of the acceleration parameter do not affect the topological numbers of the corresponding four-dimensional static accelerating black holes. In addition, we demonstrate that the electric charge parameter has an important effect on the topological number of the static neutral accelerating black holes, and the cosmological constant has a remarkable influence on the topological number of the static accelerating black hole. Furthermore, it is interesting to observe that the difference between the topological number of the asymptotically flat static accelerating black hole and that of its corresponding asymptotically flat static nonaccelerating black hole is always unity, and the difference between the topological number of the asymptotically AdS static accelerating black hole and that of its corresponding asymptotically AdS static nonaccelerating black hole is always $-1$. This new observation leads us to conjure that it might be valid also for other accelerating black holes. Of course, this captivating conjecture requires empirical verification through comprehensive investigation into the topological numbers of other accelerating black holes and their corresponding usual counterparts.

description: We present a general theory for calculating the damping rate of elementary density wave excitations in a Bose-Einstein condensate strongly coupled to a single radiation field mode of an optical cavity. Thereby we give a detailed derivation of the huge resonant enhancement in the Beliaev damping of a density wave mode, predicted recently by Kónya et al., Phys.~Rev.~A 89, 051601(R) (2014). The given density-wave mode constitutes the polariton-like soft mode of the self-organization phase transition. The resonant enhancement takes place, both in the normal and ordered phases, outside the critical region. We show that the large damping rate is accompanied by a significant frequency shift of this polariton mode. Going beyond the Born-Markov approximation and determining the poles of the retarded Green's function of the polariton, we reveal a strong coupling between the polariton and a collective mode in the phonon bath formed by the other density wave modes.

description: This study explores the generation of the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe within the complex Two Higgs Doublet Model (C2HDM) while considering theoretical and current experimental constraints. In our investigation, we analyze critical elements of the Higgs potential to understand the phase transition pattern. Specifically, we examine the formation of the barrier and the uplifting of the true vacuum state, which play crucial roles in facilitating a strong first-order phase transition. Furthermore, we explore the potential gravitational wave signals associated with this phase transition pattern and investigate the parameter space points that can be probed with LISA. Finally, we compare the impact of different approaches to describing the bubble profile on the calculation of the baryon asymmetry. We contrast the typically used kink profile approximation against the explicit solution of the tunneling profile. We find that a non-negligible range of the C2HDM parameter space results in significant discrepancies in the baryon asymmetry estimation between these two approaches. Through an examination of the parameter space, we identify a benchmark point that satisfies the observed baryon asymmetry.

description: The increasing trend in disease and insect pest (DIP) outbreaks is expected to continue due to climate change and become one of the major risks for the agricultural sector. Many researchers tried to construct a flexible control system of the DIP outbreaks that have intensified with climate change. This study estimated a DIP damage function for ginseng that is incorporating spatial autocorrelation and weather variables. We find that major DIP of ginseng such as anthracnose and gray mold has statistically significant spatial autocorrelation effects within the effective distance. Our estimation result also shows that there exists a significant relationship between DIP outbreaks and weather variables except for Pseudococcus Comstock. And anthracnose outbreaks show a strong spatial autocorrelation especially when the effective distance is considered.

description: Interstellar methanol is considered to be a parent species of larger, more complex organic molecules. A physicochemical simulation of infalling parcels of matter is performed for a low-mass star-forming system to trace the chemical evolution from cloud to disc. An axisymmetric 2D semi-analytic model generates the time-dependent density and velocity distributions, and full continuum radiative transfer is performed to calculate the dust temperature and the UV radiation field at each position as a function of time. A comprehensive gas-grain chemical network is employed to compute the chemical abundances along infall trajectories. Two physical scenarios are studied, one in which the dominant disc growth mechanism is viscous spreading, and another in which continuous infall of matter prevails. The results show that the infall path influences the abundance of methanol entering each type of disc, ranging from complete loss of methanol to an enhancement by a factor of > 1 relative to the prestellar phase. Critical chemical processes and parameters for the methanol chemistry under different physical conditions are identified. The exact abundance and distribution of methanol is important for the budget of complex organic molecules in discs, which will be incorporated into forming planetary system objects such as protoplanets and comets. These simulations show that the comet-forming zone contains less methanol than in the precollapse phase, which is dominantly of prestellar origin, but also with additional layers built up in the envelope during infall. Such intriguing links will soon be tested by upcoming data from the Rosetta mission.

description: A Discrete Global Grid System (DGGS) is a type of spatial reference system that tessellates the globe into many individual, evenly spaced, and well-aligned cells to encode location and, thus, can serve as a basis for data cube construction. This facilitates integration and aggregation of multi-resolution data from various sources to rapidly calculate spatial statistics. We calculated normalized area and compactness for cell geometries from 5 open-source DGGS implementations - Uber H3, Google S2, RiskAware OpenEAGGR, rHEALPix by Landcare Research New Zealand, and DGGRID by Southern Oregon University - to evaluate their suitability for a global-level statistical data cube. We conclude that the rHEALPix and OpenEAGGR and DGGRID ISEA-based DGGS definitions are most suitable for global statistics because they have the strongest guarantee of equal area preservation - where each cell covers almost exactly the same area on the globe. Uber H3 has the smallest shape distortions, but Uber H3 and Google S2 have the largest variations in cell area. However, they provide more mature software library functionalities. DGGRID provides excellent functionality to construct grids with desired geometric properties but as the only implementation does not provide functions for traversal and navigation within a grid after its construction.

description: Polarons, which arise from the self-trapping interaction between electrons and lattice distortions in a solid, have been known and extensively investigated for nearly a century. Nevertheless, the study of polarons continues to be an active and evolving field, with ongoing advancements in both fundamental understanding and practical applications. Here, we present a microscopic model that exhibits a diverse range of dynamic behavior, arising from the intricate interplay between two excitation-phonon coupling terms. The derivation of the model is based on an experimentally feasible Rydberg-dressed system with dipole-dipole interactions, making it a promising candidate for realization in a Rydberg atoms quantum simulator. Remarkably, our analysis reveals a growing asymmetry in Bloch oscillations, leading to a macroscopic transport of non-spreading excitations under a constant force. Moreover, we compare the behavior of excitations, when coupled to either acoustic or optical phonons, and demonstrate the robustness of our findings against on-site random potential. Overall, this work contributes to the understanding of polaron dynamics with their potential applications in coherent quantum transport and offers valuable insights for research on Rydberg-based quantum systems.

description: We report here an analysis of the physical stellar parameters of the giant star HD185351 using Kepler short-cadence photometry, optical and near infrared interferometry from CHARA, and high-resolution spectroscopy. Asteroseismic oscillations detected in the Kepler short-cadence photometry combined with an effective temperature calculated from the interferometric angular diameter and bolometric flux yield a mean density, rho_star = 0.0130 +- 0.0003 rho_sun and surface gravity, logg = 3.280 +- 0.011. Combining the gravity and density we find Rstar = 5.35 +- 0.20 Rsun and Mstar = 1.99 +- 0.23 Msun. The trigonometric parallax and CHARA angular diameter give a radius Rstar = 4.97 +- 0.07 Rsun. This smaller radius,when combined with the mean stellar density, corresponds to a stellar mass Mstar = 1.60 +- 0.08 Msun, which is smaller than the asteroseismic mass by 1.6-sigma. We find that a larger mass is supported by the observation of mixed modes in our high-precision photometry, the spacing of which is consistent only for Mstar =~ 1.8 Msun. Our various and independent mass measurements can be compared to the mass measured from interpolating the spectroscopic parameters onto stellar evolution models, which yields a model-based mass M_star = 1.87 +- 0.07 Msun. This mass agrees well with the asteroseismic value,but is 2.6-sigma higher than the mass from the combination of asteroseismology and interferometry. The discrepancy motivates future studies with a larger sample of giant stars. However, all of our mass measurements are consistent with HD185351 having a mass in excess of 1.5 Msun.

description: Brain age prediction using neuroimaging data has shown great potential as an indicator of overall brain health and successful aging, as well as a disease biomarker. Deep learning models have been established as reliable and efficient brain age estimators, being trained to predict the chronological age of healthy subjects. In this paper, we investigate the impact of a pre-training step on deep learning models for brain age prediction. More precisely, instead of the common approach of pre-training on natural imaging classification, we propose pre-training the models on brain-related tasks, which led to state-of-the-art results in our experiments on ADNI data. Furthermore, we validate the resulting brain age biomarker on images of patients with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. Interestingly, our results indicate that better-performing deep learning models in terms of brain age prediction on healthy patients do not result in more reliable biomarkers.

description: New CCD three colors light curves of TY Boo were carried out in five nights from February to May 2006 in BVR bandpass using a 50-cm F/8.4 Ritchey Chretien telescope (Ba50) of the Baja Astronomical Observatory (Hungary), and 512*512 Apogee AP-7 CCD camera. A photometric solution of these light curves was obtained by means of Willson-Devinney code. The results showed that the low massive component is hotter than the more massive and cool one, and the temperature difference between the components is Delta T = 249 K. Long term investigation for the period behavior of the system based on all available data shows two stages of increase and similar of decrease, which look like as a periodic behavior. A new light elements yields a new period (p= 0.3171506 day) and shows a period decrease with the rate dP/dE = 5.858*10^(-12) day/cycle or 6.742*10^(-9) day/year or 0.1 second/century. The evolutionary status of the system is discussed.

description: We study torsional oscillations of neutron stars in the scalar-tensor theory of gravity using the relativistic Cowling approximation. We compute unperturbed neutron star models adopting realistic equations of state for the neutron star's core and crust. For scalar-tensor theories that allow for spontaneous scalarization, the crust thickness can be significantly smaller than in general relativity. We derive the perturbation equation describing torsional oscillations in scalar-tensor theory, and we solve the corresponding eigenvalue problem to find the oscillation frequencies. The fundamental mode (overtone) frequencies become smaller (larger) than in general relativity for scalarized stellar models. Torsional oscillation frequencies may yield information on the crust microphysics if microphysics effects are not degenerate with strong-gravity effects, such as those due to scalarization. To address this issue, we consider two different models for the equation of state of the crust and we look at the effects of electron screening. The effect of scalarization on torsional oscillation frequencies turns out to be smaller than uncertainties in the microphysics for all spontaneous scalarization models allowed by binary pulsar observations. Our study shows that the observation of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) following giant flares can be used to constrain the microphysics of neutron star crusts, whether spontaneous scalarization occurs or not.

description: The Quantum Angle Generator (QAG) is a new full Quantum Machine Learning model designed to generate accurate images on current Noise Intermediate Scale (NISQ) Quantum devices. Variational quantum circuits form the core of the QAG model, and various circuit architectures are evaluated. In combination with the so-called MERA-upsampling architecture, the QAG model achieves excellent results, which are analyzed and evaluated in detail. To our knowledge, this is the first time that a quantum model has achieved such accurate results. To explore the robustness of the model to noise, an extensive quantum noise study is performed. In this paper, it is demonstrated that the model trained on a physical quantum device learns the noise characteristics of the hardware and generates outstanding results. It is verified that even a quantum hardware machine calibration change during training of up to 8% can be well tolerated. For demonstration, the model is employed in indispensable simulations in high energy physics required to measure particle energies and, ultimately, to discover unknown particles at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.

We employ the Fokker Lagrangian method with dimensional regularization, and our results for the tail sector are perfectly consistent with the previous EFT computations. As for the ``failed'' tail sector, we have good hopes that this new computation will help solving the current discrepancy in the literature.

description: The superconducting and magnetic properties of phase-separated A$_x$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_2$ compounds are known to depend on post-growth heat treatments and cooling profiles. This paper focusses on the evolution of microstructure on annealing, and how this influences the superconducting properties of Rb$_x$Fe$_2-y$Se$_2$ crystals. We find that the minority phase in the as-grown crystal has increased unit cell anisotropy (c/a ratio), reduced Rb content and increased Fe content compared to the matrix. The microstructure is rather complex, with two-phase mesoscopic plate-shaped features aligned along {113} habit planes. The minority phase are strongly facetted on the {113} planes, which we have shown to be driven by minimising the volume strain energy introduced as a result of the phase transformation. Annealing at 488K results in coarsening of the mesoscopic plate-shaped features and the formation of a third distinct phase. The subtle differences in structure and chemistry of the minority phase(s) in the crystals are thought to be responsible for changes in the superconducting transition temperature. In addition, scanning photoemission microscopy has clearly shown that the electronic structure of the minority phase has a higher occupied density of states of the low binding energy Fe3d orbitals, characteristic of crystals that exhibit superconductivity. This demonstrates a clear correlation between the Fe-vacancy-free phase with high c/a ratio and the electronic structure characteristics of the superconducting phase.

Pediatricians’ Knowledge, Practice Patterns, and Barriers in Treating Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms: A Qualitative Study

subject: Community Health and Prevention Research

description: Importance: Pediatric lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common experiences among school-aged children, with prevalence rates reaching as high as 20%. Pediatricians are first-line stakeholders in providing treatment for these bothersome symptoms, yet little knowledge exists about the treatment of LUTS by primary care providers. Evaluating pediatricians’ knowledge, beliefs, and practice patterns toward LUTS is an important step in developing resources to help clinicians treat LUTS and facilitate LUTS treatment at the primary care setting instead of the subspecialty care setting.

Objective: To explore pediatricians’ perspectives on the barriers and facilitators to providing care for children with LUTS and to identify their practices, knowledge, and beliefs about LUTS.

Design: This qualitative study was conducted using semi-structured key informant focus groups of pediatricians from Northern and Central California. A moderator guide was developed based on the social-ecological model, previous literature, and feedback from pediatricians and urology providers. Thematic analysis was performed using deductive and inductive approaches. 

Participants: English-speaking pediatricians from Northern and Central California caring for children with or without LUTS.

Results: 15 pediatricians were interviewed. Participants were between the ages of 30-69 years and two were men. Practice types included general outpatient settings, hospital-based/inpatient, and subspecialty. Pediatricians believe pediatric LUTS is a common problem that can significantly impact a child’s well-being. In practice, pediatricians do not actively screen for LUTS beyond the potty training period due to limited clinic visit time and competing healthcare demands. Pediatricians feel limited in their ability to influence behavioral change in the home setting. Referrals to subspecialists are driven by parental mistrust and expectations. School-level factors are identified as barriers to bladder health. Pediatricians wish they had clear guidelines and additional residency education. They also recommend the development of resources for parents and teachers. 

Conclusion and Relevance: This information may help develop and implement education tools for the primary care setting, which can be used prior to the onset of LUTS, shifting the focus from treatment to prevention.

description: We propose an efficient algorithm that combines column generation and quantum annealing to solve binary quadratic problems. Binary quadratic problems are difficult to solve because they are NP-hard. An attempt to solve binary quadratic problems efficiently by column generation has been studied, but it demands successively solving quadratic unconstrained binary optimization problems. We solve the bottleneck by using quantum annealing or simulated annealing. Our results demonstrate a good approximate solution obtained in 2.7 to 1000 times shorter computational time to use column generation and quantum annealing to solve binary quadratic problems than the existing fast solver.

description: The area enclosed by the two-dimensional Brownian motion in the plane was studied by Lévy, who found the characteristic function and probability density of this random variable. For other planar processes, in particular ergodic diffusions described by linear stochastic differential equations (SDEs), only the expected value of the stochastic area is known. Here, we calculate the generating function of the stochastic area for linear SDEs, which can be related to the integral of the angular momentum, and extract from the result the large deviation functions characterising the dominant part of its probability density in the long-time limit, as well as the effective SDE describing how large deviations arise in that limit. In addition, we obtain the asymptotic mean of the stochastic area, which is known to be related to the probability current, and the asymptotic variance, which is important for determining from observed trajectories whether or not a diffusion is reversible. Examples of reversible and irreversible linear SDEs are studied to illustrate our results.

description: This study aims to analyze the effect of rice public stockholding on rice price in harvest season and the decreasing rate of rice market supply (MSDR) and to identify how the rice public stockholding program affects the price of rice harvests over time by calculating time varying estimates of the MSDR. For this purpose, both an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model and a rolling regression model are applied. The empirical findings show that 1%p of change in the MSDR leads to 1.9% of change in the rice price in harvest season. Additionally, the impact of the rice public stockholding program on rice price support continued in the sample periods, but the degree of its influence was enhanced by 2010, and has weakened since then. These findings suggest that it is necessary to reset the appropriate volume of rice public stockholding by considering the recently decreasing trend of rice consumption in order to improve policy effect.

description: Del sodobnega zdravljenja je dosledno beleženje podatkov o bolniku in zdravstvena obravnava, ki jo izvajajo službe nujne medicinske pomoči (NMP), ni izjema. Ob veliki količini podatkov, premestitvah na druge oddleke in večih podatkovnih zbirkah postaneta zbiranje in obdelava podatkov o bolnikih izziv. Učinkovit informacijski sistem omogoča beleženje podatkov na terenu, dostop do podatkov v matični ustanovi, omogoča sledljivost, poveča zagotavljanje kakovosti, raziskave, optimizacijo organi- zacije dela (razporejanje ekip NMP, zasede-nost prostorov v bolnišnici, kadrovsko načr- tovanje, dobava medicinskih materialov), zmanjša vpliv na okolje in olajša obračun stroškov.

 We would like to thank Eva Zupan Horaček for consultations regarding the design.

description: This work aims at a systematic investigations of the pairing properties and Fermi properties from the proton drip-line to the neutron drip-line. In order to provide more accurate mass formula with skyrme SKI3 force, the global descriptive power of the SKI3-HFB model for pairing properties are made in this study. Systematic Skyrme SKI3-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations with a mixed volume-surface pairing force are carried out to study the ground-state neutron and proton pairing gap, neutron and proton pairing energy and neutron and proton Fermi energy for about 2095 even-even nuclei ranging from $2\le{Z}\le110 $ to $2\le{N}\le236$. The calculated results of neutron and proton pairing gap are compared with experimental data using the difference-point formulas $Δ^{(3)}, Δ^{(4)}$ and $Δ^{(5)}$, and also compared with the neutron and proton pairing gap of Lipkin-Nogami model. It is shown that the Skyrme-SKI3 functional with the mixed volume-surface pairing force can be successfully used for describing the ground-state pairing and Fermi properties of the investigated nuclei, in particularly the neutron-rich nuclei and the exotic nuclei near the neutron drip-line. On the other hand, the calculated neutron and proton pairing gap are in good agreement with the available experimental values of the neutron and proton pairing gap of the difference-point formulas $Δ^{(3)}, Δ^{(4)}$ and $Δ^{(5)}$ and with the data of Lipkin-Nogami model over the whole nuclear chart.

description: The Anthropocene is causing a global crisis in recent decades. Facing this challenge, increasing attempts are being made to explore the more-than-human-centred perspective in HCI and design. Our research sets out to explore the ways of experiencing and interacting with plants with a case study on the slowness of plants. Utilising existing time-lapse technology, we investigate the role of IoT technologies in associating biological slowness with the networked technological environment of the home. In the experiment, we chose the humidity level of the environment as the variable to synchronise the movement of smart curtains and plants. We propose a relationship-centred strategy that uses an inclusive feature of a microclimate, like humidity, instead of the plant itself, for human-plant interaction. Furthermore, it indicates a 'plant-decentred' perspective to spark critical reflection on the taken-for-granted perception of isolating a person or a plant as an individual entity.

description: Presentation given at the international Open Science conference in Berlin on 13-14 March 2018. The talk reviews data policy developments over recent years, tracking the drivers for open, FAIR data and uptake amongst the research community. It argues that effective data management is a necessary precursor and that the importance of RDM should be reasserted in policies and engagement programmes. The three historic versions of the NERC data policy referred to on slide 10 are also included since these no longer appear to be available online.
MIST-CF: Chemical formula inference from tandem mass spectra

description: Chemical formula annotation for tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) data is the first step toward structurally elucidating unknown metabolites. While great strides have been made toward solving this problem, the current state-of-the-art method depends on time-intensive, proprietary, and expert-parameterized fragmentation tree construction and scoring. In this work we extend our previous spectrum Transformer methodology into an energy based modeling framework, MIST-CF, for learning to rank chemical formula and adduct assignments given an unannotated MS/MS spectrum. Importantly, MIST-CF learns in a data dependent fashion using a Formula Transformer neural network architecture and circumvents the need for fragmentation tree construction. We train and evaluate our model on a large open-access database, showing an absolute improvement of 10% top 1 accuracy over other neural network architectures. We further validate our approach on the CASMI2022 challenge dataset, achieving nearly equivalent performance to the winning entry within the positive mode category without any manual curation or post-processing of our results. These results demonstrate an exciting strategy to more powerfully leverage MS2 fragment peaks for predicting MS1 precursor chemical formula with data driven learning.

description: This article demonstrates the dependency on the French translation of the Italian and English translations of Witold Gombrowicz’s 1966 drama entitled Operetta and discusses the relationship between these three translations and the Polish original. This has been conducted in terms of the author’s literary and dramatic style peculiarities, as well as his ideological and artistic orientation. It proves that, paradoxically, a translation – even a second-hand one – does not always imply major detachment from the author’s intention and vision. The comparative study of the four linguistic versions of the drama reveals that most of the original Polish text’s dominants were significantly extended and enhanced in the French translation. These amplifications were subsequently adopted by both Italian and English translators, even though the English translator does not acknowledge the use of French text in any of his notes. The article focuses on two main aspects of Operetta’s translations: indirectness (in the case of the Italian and partly of the English translation) and authorial control over the translation process (in the case of the French translation), in order to determine their influence on Gombrowicz’s individual voice.

description: We prove that any graph $G$ of minimum degree greater than $2k^2-1$ has a $(k+1)$-connected induced subgraph $H$ such that the number of vertices of $H$ that have neighbors outside of $H$ is at most $2k^2-1$. This generalizes a classical result of Mader, which states that a high minimum degree implies the existence of a highly connected subgraph. We give several variants of our result, and for each of these variants, we give asymptotics for the bounds. We also we compute optimal values for the case when $k=2$. Alon, Kleitman, Saks, Seymour, and Thomassen proved that in a graph of high chromatic number, there exists an induced subgraph of high connectivity and high chromatic number. We give a new proof of this theorem with a better bound.

Analysis of double-$J/ψ$ production in $Z$ decay at next-to-leading-order QCD accuracy

description: In this article, we study in detail the double-$J/ψ$ yield through $Z$ decay at the next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD accuracy within the nonrelativistic QCD factorization. At the tree level, the pure QCD diagrams predict a branching ratio of $\mathcal{B}_{Z \to J/ψ+J/ψ} \sim 10^{-12}$; however, the inclusion of the QED diagrams would augment this prediction by approximately 2-3 orders of magnitude. After incorporating the QCD corrections, the QCD results exhibit a considerable increase, whereas the QED results undergo a substantial reduction. Combining the QCD and QED contributions at NLO in $α_s$, it is observed that the prediction of $\mathcal{B}_{Z \to J/ψ+J/ψ}=(1.110^{+0.334+0.054}_{-0.241-0.001})\times 10^{-10}$, which displays a fairly steady dependence on the renormalization scale, is significantly lower than the upper limits released by CMS.

description: We consider the fast solution of non-smooth optimization problems as resulting for example from the approximation of elliptic free boundary problems of obstacle or Stefan type. Combining well-known concepts of successive subspace correction methods with convex analysis, we derive a new class of multigrid methods which are globally convergent and have logarithmic bounds of the asymptotic convergence rates. The theoretical considerations are illustrated by numerical experiments.
