description: Motivation - This research aims at investigating emerging roles and forms of participation fostering design-use mediation during the Open Source Software design process Research approach - We compare online interactions for a successful "pushed-by-users" design process with unsuccessful previous proposals. The methodology developed, articulate structural analyses of the discussions (organization of discussions, participation) to actions to the code and documentation made by participants to the project. We focus on the useroriented and the developer-oriented mailing-lists of the Python project. Findings/Design - We find that key-participants, the cross-participants, foster the design process and act as boundary spanners between the users and the developers' communities. Research limitations/Implications - These findings can be reinforced developing software to automate the structural analysis of discussions and actions to the code and documentation. Further analyses, supported by these tools, will be necessary to generalise our results. Originality/Value - The analysis of participation among the three interaction spaces of OSS design (discussion, documentation and implementation) is the main originality of this work compared to other OSS research that mainly analyse one or two spaces. Take away message - Beside the idealistic picture that users may intervene freely in the process, OSS design is boost and framed by some key-participants and specific rules and there can be barriers to users' participation
Generalized statistical models of voids and hierarchical structure in cosmology

description: Generalized statistical models of voids and hierarchical structure in cosmology are developed. The often quoted negative binomial model and frequently used thermodynamic model are shown to be special cases of a more general distribution which contains a parameter "a". The parameter is related to the Levy index alpha and the Fisher critical exponent tau, the latter describing the power law fall off of clumps of matter around a phase transition. The parameter"a", exponent tau, or index alpha can be obtained from properties of a void scaling function. A stochastic probability variable "p" is introduced into a statistical model which represent the adhesive growth of galaxy structure. For p<1/2, the galaxy count distribution decays exponential fast with size. For p>1/2, an adhesive growth can go on indefinitely thereby forming an infinite supercluster. At p=1/2 a scale free power law distribution for the galaxy count distribution is present. The stochastic description also leads to consequences that have some parallels with cosmic string results, percolation theory and phase transitions.

description: I discuss the absorption and dispersion of pions in hot matter. A two-loop calculation in the framework of chiral perturbation theory is presented and its result is compactly written in terms of the two- and three-particle forward $ππ$ scattering amplitudes. At modest temperatures, $T \le 100$ MeV, the change in the pion mass is small and its dispersion law closely resembles the free space one. At these temperatures, all quantities of interest are given to a good degree of accuracy by the first term in the virial expansion which is linear in the density.

description: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Akt des 'Sightseeings', der im antiken und allgegenwärtigen Konzept der 'Theoria' verwurzelt ist, das Vision und intellektuelle Untersuchung miteinander verbindet. Sie schlägt Wege vor, um eine abstrakte Haltung gegenüber dem Phänomen des Tourismus durch Archivrecherche und spekulative Dokumentation zu formulieren und zu artikulieren. Durch die Untersuchung von drei Reiseberichten aus der fernen und frühen Vergangenheit setzt sich die Arbeit mit dem vermittelten Begriff des Raums auseinander, in dem die frühen Reisenden 'schauten, ohne zu sehen' und verschwommene Inseln der Realität verfassten, die sie in sich trugen. Darüber hinaus wird in dieser Studie eine virtuelle Figur eingeführt, Penelope, die die Mythologie des Tourismus als ein potentes Laboratorium für Spekulationen über die 'Wege des Sightseeings' und die Erfindung von Abstraktionsmethoden aufbaut, die eher Vorstellungskraft als wirtschaftliche Beziehungen erfordern. Diese Arbeit schließt mit einer Zusammenführung der Untersuchung von Reiseberichten und der Figur zur Darstellung des fantastischen Archivs der Reisen und präsentiert eine Synthese, die die Prämisse verkörpert, dass das, was sehenswert ist, eine gute Geschichte zum Erzählen ausmacht.
description: This thesis concerns the act of sightseeing, rooted in the ancient and ubiquitous concept of 'theoria', which combines vision and intellectual inquiry. It proposes ways of formulating and articulating an abstract stance with regard to the phenomenon of tourism through archival research and speculative documentation. By examining three travelogues from the distant and early past, the thesis aims to engage with the mediated notion of space, where early travellers 'looked without seeing', composing blurry islets of reality they carried within themselves. Parallel, this study introduces a virtual character, Penelope, who engages the mythology of tourism as a potent laboratory for speculating on Ways of Sightseeing and inventing methods of abstraction that require imagination, rather than economic relations. This thesis concludes by merging the study of travelogues and the character into the rendering of the fantastic archive of travels, presenting a synthesis that embodies the premise that what is worth seeing is a good story to tell

description: Es un gran placer estar aqui. Hoy voy a hablar acerca de temas relacionados con la seguridad y solvencia bancaria. Trataré de dividir la presentación en cuatro puntos principales. Primero presentaré el problema relacionado era la seguridad en el sistema bancario, pues a menudo se tiene dificultades de este tipo. La razón fundamental es que los portafolios de los bancos dependen en4 gran parte de la habilidad de los banqueros para evaluarlos, existiendo siempre la posibilidad de que se cometan errores debido a que los banqueros no siempre conocen las características especificas de los préstamos concedidos, mientras que las personas que piden el préstamo tienen buena información acerca de la naturaleza y las perspectivas de sus negocios. Por tanto, siempre hay la posibilidad de que existan malos créditos. Entonces, es fundamental que los banqueros traten de conocer las condiciones y las perspectivas de los prestatarios para evitar problemas de seguridad.

description: The nitrocarburization of the AISI-H13 tool steel by ion beam assisted deposition is reported. In this technique, a carbon film is continuously deposited over the sample by the ion beam sputtering of a carbon target while a second ion source is used to bombard the sample with low energy nitrogen ions. The results show that the presence of carbon has an important impact on the crystalline and microstructural properties of the material without modification of the case depth.

description: Video games contain elaborate reinforcement and reward schedules that have the potential to maximize motivation. Neuroimaging studies suggest that video games might have an influence on the reward system. However, it is not clear whether reward-related properties represent a precondition, which biases an individual toward playing video games, or if these changes are the result of playing video games. Therefore, we conducted a longitudinal study to explore reward-related functional predictors in relation to video gaming experience as well as functional changes in the brain in response to video game training. Fifty healthy participants were randomly assigned to a video game training (TG) or control group (CG). Before and after training/control period, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was conducted using a non-video game related reward task. At pretest, both groups showed strongest activation in ventral striatum (VS) during reward anticipation. At posttest, the TG showed very similar VS activity compared to pretest. In the CG, the VS activity was significantly attenuated. This longitudinal study revealed that video game training may preserve reward responsiveness in the VS in a retest situation over time. We suggest that video games are able to keep striatal responses to reward flexible, a mechanism which might be of critical value for applications such as therapeutic cognitive training.

description: A discrete problem can be relaxed by taking the continuous relaxation of an integer programming formulation. An equivalent relaxation is obtained by projecting this relaxation onto the original continuous variables. The projection is simple for piecewise linear functions, fixed charge problems and some disjunctive constraints. This allows one to solve much smaller relaxations without sacrificing the quality of bounds. In particular the projected relaxations for some classical network design and warehouse location problems are minimum cost network ow problems, a fact that can dramatically accelerate their solution.

description: We investigate the influence of large-scale meridional circulation on solar p-modes by quasi-degenerate perturbation theory, as proposed by \cite{lavely92}. As an input flow we use various models of stationary meridional circulation obeying the continuity equation. This flow perturbs the eigenmodes of an equilibrium model of the Sun. We derive the signatures of the meridional circulation in the frequency multiplets of solar p-modes. In most cases the meridional circulation leads to negative average frequency shifts of the multiplets. Further possible observable effects are briefly discussed.

description: We discuss an enhancement of the Balas-Jeroslow procedure for strengthening disjunctive cuts for mixed 0-1 programs. It is based on the paradox that sometimes weakening a disjunction helps the strengthening procedure and results in sharper cuts. When applied to a split cut derived from a source row of the simplex tableau, the enhanced procedure yields, besides the Gomory Mixed Integer cut (GMI), also inequalities that cut deeper in certain directions.

description: We investigate the thermodynamic limit of the inhomogeneous T-Q relation of the antiferromagnetic XXZ spin chain with antiperiodic boundary condition. It is shown that the contribution of the inhomogeneous term at the ground state can be neglected when the system-size N tends to infinity, which enables us to reduce the inhomogeneous Bethe ansatz equations (BAEs) to the homogeneous ones. Then the quantum numbers at the ground states are obtained, by which the system with arbitrary size can be studied. We also calculate the twisted boundary energy of the system.

description: We present new results on the static qq-potential from high statistics simulations on 32^4 and smaller lattices, using the standard Wilson beta = 6.0, 6.4, and 6.8. Within our statistical errors we do not observe any finite size effects affecting the potential values, on varying the spatial lattice extent from 0.9fm up to 3.3fm. We are able to see and quantify the running of the coupling from the Coulomb behaviour of the interquark force. From this we extract the ratio \sqrt{sigma}/Lambda_L. We demonstrate that scaling violations on the string tension can be considerably reduced by introducing effective coupling schemes, which allow for a safe extrapolation of Λ_L to its continuum value. Both methods yield consistent values for Lambda: Lambda_MSbar = 0.558_{-0.007}^{+0.017}\sqrt{sigma} = 246_{-3}^{+7}MeV. At the highest energy scale attainable to us we find alpha(5 GeV) = 0.150(3)

description: We consider the operator $F(u) = u' + f(t,u(t))$ acting on periodic real valued functions. Generically, critical points of $F$ are infinite dimensional Morin-like singularities and we provide operational characterizations of the singularities of different orders. A global Lyapunov-Schmidt decomposition of $F$ converts $F$ into adapted coordinates, $\Fbd(\tilde v, \overline u) = (\tilde v, \overline v)$, where $\tilde v$ is a function of average zero and both $\overline u$ and $\overline v$ are numbers. Thus, global geometric aspects of $F$ reduce to the study of a family of one-dimensional maps: we use this approach to obtain normal forms for several nonlinearities $f$. For example, we characterize autonomous nonlinearities giving rise to global folds and, in general, we show that $F$ is a global fold if all critical points are folds. Also, $f(t,x) = x^3 - x$, or, more generally, the Cafagna-Donati nonlinearity, yield global cusps; for $F$ interpreted as a map between appropriate Hilbert spaces, the requested changes of variable to bring $F$ to normal form can be taken to be diffeomorphisms. A key ingredient in the argument is the contractibility of both the critical set and the set of non-folds for a generic autonomous nonlinearity. We also obtain a numerical example of a polynomial $f$ of degree 4 for which $F$ contains butterflies (Morin singularities of order 4)---% it then follows that $F(u) = v$ has six solutions for some $v$.

description: Energy plays a fundamental role in both manufacturing and services, and natural gas is rapidly becoming a key energy source worldwide. Facilitating this emergence is an expanding network of ocean-going vessels that enable the matching of natural gas supply and demand on a global scale. This is achieved through the transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) for eventual regasification at its destination. Until very recently, only one type of technology had been available for transporting and regasifying LNG: Conventional LNG vessels coupled with land based LNG regasification. But it is now possible to transport and regasify LNG onboard special LNG vessels. Companies such as Excelerate Energy and Hoegh LNG are currently developing LNG supply chains based on this new technology. Motivated by these developments, we engaged executives at Excelerate Energy to facilitate an investigation of issues related to strategic technology selection, as well as choices around technology configuration and capacity for the incumbent and emerging technologies. The resulting analysis brings to light managerial principles delineating the impact of alternative LNG throughput models on decisions regarding how to deploy each technology option and how to configure and size their capacity. Our findings have additional potential relevance beyond our industry specific analysis.

description: A detailed account of the Kohn-Sham algorithm from quantum chemistry, formulated rigorously in the very general setting of convex analysis on Banach spaces, is given here. Starting from a Levy-Lieb-type functional, its convex and lower semi-continuous extension is regularized to obtain differentiability. This extra layer allows to rigorously introduce, in contrast to the common unregularized approach, a well-defined Kohn-Sham iteration scheme. Convergence in a weak sense is then proven. This generalized formulation is applicable to a wide range of different density-functional theories and possibly even to models outside of quantum mechanics.

description: We study numerically the SU(2) Kazakov-Migdal model of `induced QCD'. In contrast to our earlier work on the subject we have chosen here {\it not} to integrate out the gauge fields but to keep them in the Monte Carlo simulation. This allows us to measure observables associated with the gauge fields and thereby address the problem of the local $Z_2$ symmetry present in the model. We confirm our previous result that the model has a line of first order phase transitions terminating in a critical point. The adjoint plaquette has a clear discontinuity across the phase transition, whereas the plaquette in the fundamental representation is always zero in accordance with Elitzur's theorem. The density of small $Z_2$ monopoles shows very little variation and is always large. We also find that the model has extra local U(1) symmetries which do not exist in the case of the standard adjoint theory. As a result, we are able to show that two of the angles parameterizing the gauge field completely decouple from the theory and the continuum limit defined around the critical point can therefore not be `QCD'.

description: We propose a scheme to obtain the Heisenberg-limited parameter estimation precision by immersing atoms in a thermally equilibrated quasi-one-dimensional dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate reservoir. We show that the collisions between the dipolar atoms and the immersed atoms can result in a controllable nonlinear interaction through tuning the relative strength and the sign of the dipolar and contact interaction. We find that the repulsive dipolar interaction reservoir is preferential for the spin squeezing and the appearance of an entangled non-Gaussian state. As a useful resource for quantum metrology, we also show that the non-Gaussian state results in the phase estimation precision in the Heisenberg scaling, outperforming that of the spin-squeezed state.

Stock Market Pressure on Inventory Investment and Sales Reporting for Publicly Traded Firms

description: Operations of publicly traded firms differ from privately owned firms because public firms' managers make decisions based on their own interests. In this paper, we study how stock market pressure may influence a manager's inventory and operational management. Our model is a straightforward extension of a two- period inventory management problem with correlated demand. The manager's compensation is partially based on the firm's stock price which is influenced by the reported sales revenues. With better information about the "real" demand, the manager may manipulate the stock price by shipping more than the real demand to downstream customers and claim higher than real sales revenues using a well known form of real earnings management called "channel stuffing" or "sales padding." As it does not correspond to real demand, the padded demand will return later to the firm after additional costs are incurred. Hence, channel stuffing destroys the firm's value. Based on a game between the manager and the stock market, we identify three factors that determine the manager's incentive to use channel stuffing: the marginal incentive, the boundary effect and the carryover effect. The marginal incentive is independent of the inventory problem. The boundary and carryover effects arise from the nature of the inventory management problem. When examining the initial inventory investment decision, we find that, compared to the optimal initial inventory level of an otherwise identical private firm, the manager who is aware of the costly consequence of padding may under-invest inventory due to the loss of margin as well as to limit the carryover effect, while he may also over-invest to limit the boundary effect on padding. Our theoretical analysis provides insights about how a public firm's inventory decision may be different from a private firm's inventory decision, which is the classical reference framework in operations management.

description: Here we discuss evolution and broad-band emission of compact (< kpc) lobes in young radio sources. We propose a simple dynamical description for these objects, consisting of a relativistic jet propagating into a uniform gaseous medium in the central parts of an elliptical host. In the framework of the proposed model, we follow the evolution of ultrarelativistic electrons injected from a terminal hotspot of a jet to expanding lobes, taking into account their adiabatic energy losses as well as radiative cooling. This allows us to discuss the broad-band lobe emission of young radio sources. In particular, we argue that the observed spectral turnover in the radio synchrotron spectra of these objects cannot originate from the synchrotron self-absorption process but is most likely due to free-free absorption effects connected with neutral clouds of interstellar medium engulfed by the expanding lobes and photoionized by active centers. We also find a relatively strong and complex high-energy emission component produced by inverse-Compton up-scattering of various surrounding photon fields by the lobes' electrons. We argue that such high energy radiation is strong enough to account for several observed properties of GHz-peaked-spectrum (GPS) radio galaxies at UV and X-ray frequencies. In addition, this emission is expected to extend up to GeV (or possibly even TeV) photon energies and can thus be probed by several modern gamma-ray instruments. In particular, we suggest that GPS radio galaxies should constitute a relatively numerous class of extragalactic sources detected by GLAST.

description: Chemically powered self-propelled colloids generate a motor force by converting locally a source of energy into directed motion, a process that has been explored both in experiments and in computational models. The use of active colloids as building blocks for nanotechnology opens the doors to interesting applications, provided we understand the behaviour of these elementary constituents. We build a consistent mesoscopic simulation model for self-propelled colloids of complex shape with the aim of resolving the coupling between their translational and rotational motion. Considering a passive L-shaped colloidal particle, we study its Brownian dynamics and locate its center of hydrodynamics, the tracking point at which translation and rotation decouple. The active L particle displays the same circling trajectories that have been found experimentally, a result which we compare with the Brownian dynamics model. We put forward the role of hydrodynamics by comparing our results with a fluid model in which the particles' velocities are reset randomly. There, the trajectories only display random orientations. We obtain these original simulation results without any parametrization of the algorithm, which makes it a useful method for the preliminary study of active colloids, prior to experimental work.

description: This article analyses how providing clear specifications to software projects and communicating legal information regarding licenses and copyright facilitates streamlining management policies for digital commons, especially Free Software. In particular, this article deals with the compliance issues software projects may face during their implementation of Free Software licenses. Establishing a compliance program for the different types of Free Software licenses involves operational, logistical, and legal efforts. A licensing compliance program depends on the size of the Free Software project, as it could be tailored for small teams of contributors working on a small program or for a large corporation implementing Free Software on their production. A successful compliance program can be beneficial not only for the project, but to the whole ecosystem, as it enables a project or organization to effectively use and profit from digital commons and contribute back to the community. As a study case, this paper focuses on how a compliance workflow was proposed to the Next Generation Internet (NGI), an European Commission (EC) initiative for Europe’s digital transformation. The NGI aims to shape the development of the “Internet of Humans”, in response to fundamental rights and principles including trust, security, and inclusion. The NGI fosters diversity and decentralisation for a sustainable open ecosystem based on open technologies, such as Free Software. The paper illustrates the workflow proposed for software projects covered by the NGI, covering topics such as compliance processes, code release, guidelines for external contribution, and baseline requirements for contracts and trademarks. In particular, the article refers to the “REUSE Software”, a set of best practices for declaring copyright and licensing in an unambiguous, human- and machine-readable way. The REUSE specifications facilitate management policies for digital commons. They improve data and metadata communication for individuals, communities, governments, and businesses. The article concludes with the lessons learned from the experience gathered in the three years of implementation of the compliance workflow established for the NGI initiative. This effort actively contributed to 295 software projects.
Refined Topological Vertex and Instanton Counting

description: It has been proposed recently that topological A-model string amplitudes for toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds in non self-dual graviphoton background can be caluculated by a diagrammatic method that is called the ``refined topological vertex''. We compute the extended A-model amplitudes for SU(N)-geometries using the proposed vertex. If the refined topological vertex is valid, these computations should give rise to the Nekrasov's partition functions of N=2 SU(N) gauge theories via the geometric engineering. In this article, we verify the proposal by confirming the equivalence between the refined A-model amplitude and the K-theoretic version of the Nekrasov's partition function by explicit computation.

description: Pure SU(2) gauge theory is the simplest asymptotically free theory in four dimensions. To investigate Euclidean quantum gravity effects in a fundamental length scenario, we simulate 4$d$ SU(2) lattice gauge theory on a dynamically coupled Regge skeleton. The fluctuations of the skeleton are governed by the standard Regge-Einstein action. From a small $2\cdot 4^3$ lattice we report exploratory numerical results, limited to a region of strong gravity where the Planck mass and hadronic masses take similar orders of magnitude. We find a range of the Planck mass where stable bulk expectation values are obtained which vary smoothly with the gauge coupling, and a remnant of the QCD deconfining phase transition is located.

Controlling Properties of Particle-Laden Interfaces Through Interfacial Processing and Design Towards Emulsion Stability

Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2024
Subjects: Chemical Engineering not elsewhere classified

description:  Strongly absorbed particles significantly impact the mechanical properties of fluid-fluid interfaces, and the interfacial properties of these systems are associated with the formation of highly stable emulsions and foams. Interfacial properties are directly affected by the properties of the aqueous fluid, as well as particle properties which include surface chemistries and aggregation states. The nature of the hydrophobic fluid (most often air or oil) also has a significant impact on the behavior of particles at the interface which is far less understood. To better engineer emulsion systems with desired stability, we need to develop tools necessary to systematically quantify the effects of the hydrophobic fluid on the interfacial mechanics associated with stability at particle-laden interfaces. 
This work uses in-situ techniques that allow for the efficient, detailed characterization of bulk and interfacial properties essential for controlling emulsion stability. A millifluidic technique is shown to be a powerful approach for bulk stability studies in opaque colloidal dispersions and is used here to characterize the long-time solvency effects on asphaltene precipitation. The degree of aggregation and overall stability of asphaltene dispersions is highly dependent on molecular characteristics, bulk concentration, and solvent composition. The complex interfacial behavior of asphaltenes, connected to the development of highly stable water-in-oil emulsions, are defined by these bulk system conditions. 
Controlled experiments using a microtensiometer platform are used to characterize the mechanical properties of particle-laden oil/water interfaces and assess the role of the hydrophobic fluid on particle jamming. This work shows how changing the hydrophobic phase leads to additional complexities in the characterization of the interfacial properties. Additionally, we identify system parameters that can be used to control particle coverage and interactions at the oil/water interface. 
These interfacial studies further the understanding of methods to control adsorption of complex species to oil/water interfaces. The results from this work highlight the significance of the hydrophobic fluid on interfacial behavior at particle-coated interfaces and outline key design considerations for processing and designing interfaces for use in particle-stabilized emulsions. In identifying tools to control and characterize complex interfaces and showing the importance of interfacial processing on interfacial behavior, this work provides important design rules for the engineering of particulate-based interfacial systems.
Study of a Section of Self-Purifying Stream in Specific Relation to its Water Flow Behaviour

description: The Mettma, a mountain stream in the Black Forest in Germany, had been polluted at a point source by effluent discharge from a brewery, and showed a section of self purification along several kilometres, without further interferences, following the effluent outfall. This section of stream had served as an excellent study model of the self-purification phenomenon, as much in the physico-chemistry and biology as in the hydrodynamic attributes of the water. The biological evolution along the stretch of self-purifying stream shows a succession of species typical of the food chain. To document the hydrodynamics of the stream water the Drop Picture Method, a standardized testing method developed by Theodor Schwenk, is used, based on optically revealing internal flow structures. After an initial drastic reduction and inhibition of flow shape diversity and differentiation at the effluent outfall, the internal flow structures become increasingly intense and diverse the further away downstream. This evolution in movement differentiation proceeds in parallel to the development of the biotic community, which shows a similar increase in diversity, differentiated morphology and organ function away from the pollution point to the extent that at a given point downstream a state similar to upstream of the effluent outfall is re-established. The evaluation of water quality in lotic systems relies in principle on the analysis of physical, chemical and biological characteristics. Our proposition here is to study a new descriptor of water quality, not just based on its constituent elements but taking into account the general and most outstanding characteristics of water as a liquid: its ability to move and flow, an essential function in its role as a life mediator. The hydrodynamics of water can be shown by using the Drop Picture Method, developed by Theodor Schwenk and published in 1967. We looked at this new criterion of hydrodynamic behaviour and applied this methodology along a length of stream polluted at point source by biodegradable organic effluent, and compared the results with customary testing parameters.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper outlines some potential strategies for growing revolutionary left organisations in Aotearoa, using the case study of People Against Prisons Aotearoa (PAPA), previously known as No Pride in Prisons. Lamusse provides a brief history of PAPA and outlines their experiences organising with the prison abolitionist organisation since its founding, sharing the lessons they learned about growing revolutionary left organisations in Aotearoa. They argue that to ensure democracy, transparency, and a fair division of labour, left organisations need clearly defined decision-making structures and roles. They demonstrate how, since PAPA transformed from a structureless organisation, it has not only become more democratic, but has also become a far more effective movement.
