description: Motivated by experiments in which a polynucleotide is driven through a proteinaceous pore by an electric field, we study the diffusive motion of a polymer threaded through a narrow channel with which it may have strong interactions. We show that there is a range of polymer lengths in which the system is approximately translationally invariant, and we develop a coarse-grained description of this regime. From this description, general features of the distribution of times for the polymer to pass through the pore may be deduced. We also introduce a more microscopic model. This model provides a physically reasonable scenario in which, as in experiments, the polymer's speed depends sensitively on its chemical composition, and even on its orientation in the channel. Finally, we point out that the experimental distribution of times for the polymer to pass through the pore is much broader than expected from simple estimates, and speculate on why this might be.

description: The theoretical predictions of big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) are dominated by uncertainties in the input nuclear reaction cross sections. In this paper, we examine the impact on BBN of the recent compilation of nuclear data and thermonuclear reactions rates by the NACRE collaboration. We confirm that the adopted rates do not make large overall changes in central values of predictions, but do affect the magnitude of the uncertainties in these predictions. Therefore, we then examine in detail the uncertainties in the individual reaction rates considered by NACRE. When the error estimates by NACRE are treated as 1σlimits, the resulting BBN error budget is similar to those of previous tabulations. We propose two new procedures for deriving reaction rate uncertainties from the nuclear data: one which sets lower limits to the error, and one which we believe is a reasonable description of the present error budget. We propagate these uncertainty estimates through the BBN code, and find that when the nuclear data errors are described most accurately, the resulting light element uncertainties are notably smaller than in some previous tabulations, but larger than others. Using these results, we derive limits on the cosmic baryon-to-photon ratio $η$, and compare this to independent limits on $η$ from recent balloon-borne measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB). We discuss means to improve the BBN results via key nuclear reaction measurements and light element observations.

description: Reliable methods for obtaining time-dependent solutions of Langevin equations are in high demand in the field of non-equilibrium theory. In this paper, we present a new method based on variational superposed Gaussian approximation (VSGA) and Padé approximant. The VSGA obtains time-dependent probability density functions as a superposition of multiple Gaussian distributions. However, a limitation of the VSGA is that the expectation of the drift term with respect to the Gaussian distribution should be calculated analytically, which is typically satisfied when the drift term is a polynomial function. When this condition is not met, the VSGA must rely on the numerical integration of the expectation at each step, resulting in huge computational cost. We propose an augmented VSGA (A-VSGA) method that effectively overcomes the limitation of the VSGA by approximating non-linear functions with the Padé approximant. We apply the A-VSGA to two systems driven by chaotic input signals, a stochastic genetic regulatory system and a soft bistable system, whose drift terms are a rational polynomial function and a hyperbolic tangent function, respectively. The numerical calculations show that the proposed method can provide accurate results with less temporal cost than that required for Monte Carlo simulation.

Analytic marginalization of absorption line continua

Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)

description: Absorption line spectroscopy is a powerful way of measuring properties of stars and the interstellar medium. Absorption spectra are often analyzed manually, an approach that limits reproducibility and which cannot practically be applied to modern datasets consisting of thousands or even millions of spectra. Simultaneous probabilistic modeling of absorption features and continuum shape is a promising approach for automating this analysis. Existing implementations of this approach use numerical methods such as Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to marginalize over the continuum parameters. Numerical marginalization over large numbers of continuum parameters is too slow to be convenient for exploratory analysis, can increase the dimensionality of an inference problem beyond the capacity of simple MCMC samplers, and is in general impractical for the analysis of large datasets. When continua are parameterized as linear functions such as polynomials or splines, it is possible to reduce continuum parameter marginalization to an integral over a multivariate normal distribution, which has a known closed form. In addition to speeding up probabilistic modeling, analytic marginalization makes it trivial to marginalize over continuum parameterizations and to combine continuum description marginalization with optimization for absorption line parameters. These new possibilities allow automatic, probabilistically justified continuum placement in analyses of large spectroscopic datasets. We compare the accuracy to within which absorption line parameters can be recovered using different continuum placement methods and find that marginalization is in many cases an improvement over other methods. We implement analytic marginalization over linear continuum parameters in the open-source package amlc.

description: We solve the elliptic equations associated with the Hamiltonian and momentum constraints, corresponding to a system composed of two black holes with arbitrary linear and angular momentum. These new solutions are based on a Kerr-Schild spacetime slicing which provides more physically realistic solutions than the initial data based on conformally flat metric/maximal slicing methods. The singularity/inner boundary problems are circumvented by a new technique that allows the use of an elliptic solver on a Cartesian grid where no points are excised, simplifying enormously the numerical problem.

On the high-energy emissions of compact objects observed with INTEGRAL SPI: Event selection impact on source spectra and scientific results for the bright sources Crab Nebula, GS2023+338 and MAXI J1820+070

description: The INTEGRAL SPI instrument observes the hard X-ray sky from 20 keV up to a few MeV since more than 15 years. In this energy domain, the main emitters are compact objects for which SPI provides spectral information of prime interest. Recently, two transient sources reached very unusual flux levels and have been detected up to a few hundreds of keV with a high significance level. A drastic reduction of the systematic errors is thus required to obtain reliable spectra. This objective is achieved through an analysis including a detailed understanding of the instrument behavior. This paper presents both aspects of the data analysis: we first give a basic description of the instrumental issues, then we present the solution to be implemented in the SPI data analysis (at the event selection stage) and illustrate with a few examples the reliability of the SPI results in the high-energy domain when the data analysis is performed properly. We take benefit from this refined analysis procedure to propose an updated model of the hard X-ray spectral shape of the Crab Nebula. We revisit the high-energy emission observed in GS2023+338 spectra during its 2015 outburst and present the first results from the SPI observations dedicated to the recently discovered transient MAXI J1820+070.

description: Calls for transformational adaptation are increasing. Government authorities, expected to lead adaptation, are in the difficult situation of changing a governance system from within. This demands a capacity for critical reflection among civil servants involved. Adopting a Social Practice Theory approach, we argue this capacity must be understood as emerging in practice, not simply held by individuals. Empirically, we focus on a central network of government authorities in Sweden’s adaptation governance, and identify assumptions and routines guiding their meaning making process. We focus on how situations of contestation are dealt with to explore the practice’s capacity to facilitate critical reflection. We show how a focus on efficient information transmission and an assumption of incremental adaptation as sufficient leads their practice to play down the consequences of the climate crisis. A practice approach suggests interventions to the group level in order to create joint critical reflection, necessary for enabling transformational adaptation.

description: High temperature expansions for the susceptibility and the second correlation moment of the classical N-vector model (also known as the O(N) symmetric Heisenberg classical spin model or the as the lattice O(N) nonlinear sigma model) on the square lattice are extended from order beta^{14} to beta^{21} for arbitrary N. For the second field derivative of the susceptibility the series expansion is extended from order beta^{14} to beta^{17}. For -2 < N < 2, a numerical analysis of the series is performed in order to compare the critical exponents gamma(N), nu(N) and Delta(N) to exact (though nonrigorous) formulas and to compute the "dimensionless four point coupling constant" g_r(N). For N > 2, we present a study of the analiticity properties of chi, xi etc. in the complex beta-plane and describe a method to estimate the parameters which characterize their low-temperature behaviors. We compare our series estimates to the predictions of the perturbative renormalization group theory, to exact (but nonrigorous or conjectured) formulas and to the results of the 1/N expansion, always finding a good agreement.

description: A similarity transformation is constructed through which a system of particles interacting with inverse-square two-body and harmonic potentials in one dimension, can be mapped identically, to a set of free harmonic oscillators. This equivalence provides a straightforward method to find the complete set of eigenfunctions, the exact constants of motion and a linear $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra associated with this model. It is also demonstrated that a large class of models with long-range interactions, both in one and higher dimensions can be made equivalent to decoupled oscillators.

description: The axial $U(1)$ symmetry in the high-temperature phase is investigated with $N_f = 2$ lattice QCD simulations. The gauge ensembles are generated with Möbius domain-wall fermions, and the overlap/domain-wall reweighting is applied. We find that the $U(1)_A$ susceptibility evaluated from the spectrum of overlap-Dirac eigenvalues is strongly suppressed in the chiral limit. We also study its volume dependence.

description: Machine learning advances have afforded an increase in algorithms capable of creating art, music, stories, games, and more. However, it is not yet well-understood how machine learning algorithms might best collaborate with people to support creative expression. To investigate how practicing designers perceive the role of AI in the creative process, we developed a game level design tool for Super Mario Bros.-style games with a built-in AI level designer. In this paper we discuss our design of the Morai Maker intelligent tool through two mixed-methods studies with a total of over one-hundred participants. Our findings are as follows: (1) level designers vary in their desired interactions with, and role of, the AI, (2) the AI prompted the level designers to alter their design practices, and (3) the level designers perceived the AI as having potential value in their design practice, varying based on their desired role for the AI.

Gauge-invariant microscopic kinetic theory of superconductivity: application to electromagnetic response of Nambu-Goldstone and Higgs modes

description: We show that the gauge-invariant kinetic equation of superconductivity provides an efficient approach to study the electromagnetic response of the gapless Nambu-Goldstone and gapful Higgs modes on an equal footing. We prove that the Fock energy in the kinetic equation is equivalent to the generalized Ward's identity. Hence, the gauge invariance directly leads to the charge conservation. Both linear and second-order responses are investigated. The linear response of the Higgs mode vanishes in the long-wave limit. Whereas the linear response of the Nambu-Goldstone mode interacts with the long-range Coulomb interaction, causing the original gapless spectrum lifted up to the plasma frequency as a result of the Anderson-Higgs mechanism, in consistency with the previous works. The second-order response exhibits interesting physics. On one hand, a finite second-order response of the Higgs mode is obtained in the long-wave limit. We reveal that this response, which has been experimentally observed, is attributed solely to the drive effect rather than the widely considered Anderson-pump effect. On the other hand, the second-order response of the Nambu-Goldstone mode, free from the influence of the long-range Coulomb interaction and hence the Anderson-Higgs mechanism, is predicted. We find that both Anderson-pump and drive effects play important role in this response. A tentative scheme to detect this second-order response is proposed.

 Amphiplecta acrostoma ?, Renz, 1974, pl. 18, fig. 12.
 Unknown plagonid group C sp 73, Trubovitz et al., 2020, supplementary data 7.
 Remarks. This species resembles Amphiplecta kikimorae n. sp. (Pl. 2, Figs. 1A – 5B) except that it has significantly larger pores, is overall larger in size, has a more widely flared thorax, and a less pronounced apical horn. However, it does have a cephalis of similar shape, and the same prominent AL and AD arches. It differs from Amphiplecta acrostoma Haeckel (Pl. 1, Figs. 1A – 2) and A. cylindrocephala Dumitrica in that the cephalis is closed at the top. A specimen similar to ours was figured by Renz (1974) and identified as Amphiplecta acrostoma?, but the poor image quality makes it difficult to discern the pore size of Renz’s specimen, and say with certainty it is conspecific with ours. However, we believe Amphiplecta sp. cf. A. kikimorae does not match any Amphiplecta species so far described, and could be justified as a new species after more specimens can be documented.
 Material Examined. 2 specimens from samples 321-1337A-7H- 6, 104–107cm (Early Pliocene) and 321- 1337D-1H-1, 0–3cm (Recent).
 Range. Early Pliocene—Recent in the EEP (Table 1). The specimen figured by Renz (1974) was listed as Quaternary in age.

description: The small GTPase Rab5 is the key regulator of early endosomal fusion. It is post-translationally modified by covalent attachment of two geranylgeranyl (GG) chains to adjacent cysteine residues of the C-terminal hypervariable region (HVR). The GDP dissociation inhibitor (GDI) recognizes membrane-associated Rab5(GDP) and serves to release it into the cytoplasm where it is kept in a soluble state. A detailed new structural and dynamic model for human Rab5(GDP) recognition and binding with human GDI at the early endosome membrane and in its dissociated state is presented. In the cytoplasm, the GDI protein accommodates the GG chains in a transient hydrophobic binding pocket. In solution, two different binding modes of the isoprenoid chains inserted into the hydrophobic pocket of the Rab5(GDP):GDI complex can be identified. This equilibrium between the two states helps to stabilize the protein-protein complex in solution. Interprotein contacts between the Rab5 switch regions and characteristic patches of GDI residues from the Rab binding platform (RBP) and the C-terminus coordinating region (CCR) reveal insight on the formation of such a stable complex. GDI binding to membrane-anchored Rab5(GDP) is initially mediated by the solvent accessible switch regions of the Rab-specific RBP. Formation of the membrane-associated Rab5(GDP):GDI complex induces a GDI reorientation to establish additional interactions with the Rab5 HVR. These results allow to devise a detailed structural model for the process of extraction of GG-Rab5(GDP) by GDI from the membrane and the dissociation from targeting factors and effector proteins prior to GDI binding.

Digital Agriculture and Labor: A Few Challenges for Social Sustainability

description: Academic and political debates on the digitalization of agriculture have addressed sustainability mainly from an ecological perspective. Social sustainability, particularly questions of labor, has been largely neglected in the literature thus far. This is particularly problematic since digitalization could fundamentally change farming practices and labor processes on farms, with possibly far-reaching consequences for rural development, rural communities as well as migrant laborers. Looking at the case study of Germany, this article asks how digital technologies are changing labor processes on horticultural and arable farms. The aim of this paper is to bring labor into the debates around agriculture and digitalization and to offer a detailed picture of the impacts of digital technologies on labor in agriculture. The case study builds on fourteen in-depth interviews conducted from June 2020 to March 2021, participant observation, and digital ethnography. The results show new forms of labor control and an intensification of the work process linked to methods of digital Taylorism, as well as risks of working-class fragmentation along age lines. A deskilling of workers or farmers due to digitalization has not been observed. The suggestion of an increased dependency of workers due to the loss of employment opportunities in agriculture is contested. The results stress the importance of designing agricultural policies that foster fair and equitable working conditions.

description: The shape analysis of the energy spacing distribution $P(s)$ obtained from numerical simulation of two dimensional disordered electron systems subject to strong magnetic fields is performed. In the present work we reanalyze the data obtained in a previous publication. Special moments of the $P(s)$ function related to Rényi-entropy differences show a novel scale invariant relation that is attributed to the presence of one-parameter scaling. This relation seems to show both deviations and universality depending on which Landau-band is considered and whether the disorder is correlated or uncorrelated. Furthermore, our analysis shows the existence of an huge, however, irrelevant length scale in the case of the second lowest Landau-band and no disorder correlations that completely disappears with the introduction of disorder correlations on the range of one magnetic length.

description: Nuclear matter equations of state based on Skyrme, Myers-Swiatecki and Tondeur interactions are written as polynomials of the cubic root of density, with coefficients that are functions of the relative neutron excess $δ$. In the extrapolation toward states far away from the standard one, it is shown that the asymmetry dependence of the critical point ($ρ_c, δ_c$) depends on the model used. However, when the equations of state are fitted to the same standard state, the value of $δ_c$ is almost the same in Skyrme and in Myers-Swiatecki interactions, while is much lower in Tondeur interaction. Furthermore, $δ_c$ does not depend sensitively on the choice of the parameter $γ$ in Skyrme interaction.

description: Thermodynamic and spectral properties of a photon gas in $e^+e^-γ$ plasmas are studied. The effect of a finite effective mass of a photon, associated with the plasma frequency cutoff, is self-consistently included. In the ultra-relativistic plasma, the photon spectrum turns out to be universal with the temperature normalized plasma frequency cutoff being a fundamental constant independent of plasma parameters. Such a universality does not hold in the non-relativistic plasma.

description: Temperature dependent optical conductivity spectra of a La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) sample were measured. In the metallic regime at very low temperatures, they clearly showed two types of absorption features, i.e., a sharp Drude peak and a broad mid-infrared absorption band, which could be explained as coherent and incoherent bands of a large lattice polaron. This elementary excitation in LCMO was found to be in a strong coupling regime and to have interactions with the spin degree of freedom.

description: We analyze the dynamics of a tracer particle embedded in a bath of hard spheres confined in a channel of varying section. By means of Brownian dynamics simulations we apply a constant force on the tracer particle and discuss the dependence of its mobility on the relative magnitude of the external force with respect to the entropic force induced by the confinement. A simple theoretical one-dimensional model is also derived, where the contribution from particle-particle and particle-wall interactions is taken from simulations with no external force. Our results show that the mobility of the tracer is strongly affected by the confinement. The tracer velocity in the force direction has a maximum close to the neck of the channel, in agreement with the theory for small forces. Upon increasing the external force, the tracer is effectively confined to the central part of the channel and the velocity modulation decreases, what cannot be reproduced by the theory. This deviation marks the regime of validity of linear response. Surprisingly, when the channel section is not constant the effective friction coefficient is reduced as compared to the case of a plane channel. The transversal velocity, which cannot be studied with our model, follows the qualitatively the derivative of the channel section, in agreement previous theoretical calculations for the tracer diffusivity in equilibrium.

description: We present the first simulations of non-headon (grazing) collisions of binary black holes in which the black hole singularities have been excised from the computational domain. Initially two equal mass black holes $m$ are separated a distance $\approx10m$ and with impact parameter $\approx2m$. Initial data are based on superposed, boosted (velocity $\approx0.5c$) solutions of single black holes in Kerr-Schild coordinates. Both rotating and non-rotating black holes are considered. The excised regions containing the singularities are specified by following the dynamics of apparent horizons. Evolutions of up to $t \approx 35m$ are obtained in which two initially separate apparent horizons are present for $t\approx3.8m$. At that time a single enveloping apparent horizon forms, indicating that the holes have merged. Apparent horizon area estimates suggest gravitational radiation of about 2.6% of the total mass. The evolutions end after a moderate amount of time because of instabilities.
