description: We show that the clumpy structure of star-forming regions can naturally explain the fact that 50-70% of GRB afterglows are optical``dark.'' We also show that dust echos from the GRB and its afterglow, produced by the clumpy structure of the star-forming region in which the GRB occurs, can lead to temporal variability and peaks in the NIR, optical, and UV lightcurves of GRB afterglows.

Cool circumgalactic gas of passive galaxies from cosmological inflow

description: The circumgalactic medium (CGM) of galaxies consists of a multiphase gas with components at very different temperatures, from $10^ {4}$ K to $10^ {7}$ K. One of the greatest puzzle about this medium is the presence of a large amount of low-temperature ($T\sim10^4$ K) gas around quiescent early-type galaxies (ETGs). Using semi-analytical parametric models, we describe the cool CGM around massive, low-redshift ETGs as the cosmological accretion of gas into their dark matter halos, resulting in an inflow of clouds from the external parts of the halos to the central galaxies. We compare our predictions with the observations of the COS-LRG collaboration. We find that inflow models can successfully reproduce the observed kinematics, the number of absorbers and the column densities of the cool gas. Our MCMC fit returns masses of the cool clouds of about $10^5\ \rm{M}_{\odot}$ and shows that they must evaporate during their journey due to hydrodynamic interactions with the hot gas. We conclude that the cool gas present in the halos of ETGs likely cannot reach the central regions and feed the galaxy star formation, thus explaining why these passive objects are no longer forming stars.

description: We report on spectroscopic and time-domain measurements on a fixed-frequency concentric transmon qubit in an applied in-plane magnetic field to explore its limits of magnetic field compatibility. We demonstrate quantum coherence of the qubit up to field values of $B={40}\,\mathrm{mT}$, even without an optimized chip design or material combination of the qubit. The dephasing rate $Γ_φ$ is shown to be not affected by the magnetic field in a broad range of the qubit transition frequency. For the evolution of the qubit transition frequency, we find the unintended second junction created in the shadow angle evaporation process to be non-negligible and deduce an analytic formula for the field-dependent qubit energies. We discuss the relevant field-dependent loss channels, which can not be distinguished by our measurements, inviting further theoretical and experimental investigation. Using well-known and well-studied standard components of the superconducting quantum architecture, we are able to reach a field regime relevant for quantum sensing and hybrid applications of magnetic spins and spin systems.

Kateretidae

description: Kateretidae Erichson, 1846   Type genus. Kateretes Herbst, 1793 (subsequent designation by ICZN 1999).
 Diagnosis. Length 1.3–6.0 mm. Head prognathous; subantennal grooves and subantennal ridges absent; frontoclypeal suture short or absent; maxilla with galea and lacinia; antennae 11-jointed, last 2 or 3 segments forming a loose club (without club in Sibirhelus Kirejtshuk, 1989). Procoxal cavities incompletely closed posteriorly. Male genitalia with separated parameres; aedeagus asymmetrical. Larvae without urogomphi and preogomphi (see JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010 for detailed diagnostic features of adults and larvae).
 Bionomics. Both larval and adult Kateretidae are anthophagous, developing in flowers of angiosperms (JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010). Larvae are monophagous or oligophagous, typically requiring specific plants for their development.
 Distribution. Kateretidae comprises about 95 species within 14 genera worldwide (JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010). There are two described fossil genera, Eoceniretes Kirejtshuk & Nel, 2008 from Lowermost Eocene French amber and Lebanoretes Kirejtshuk & Azar, 2008 from Lower Cretaceous Lebanese amber (KIREJTSHUK & AZAR 2008, KIREJTSHUK & NEL 2008). Members of Katereridae are mainly distributed in the Holarctic Region, but some taxa are distributed in other geographical regions – Neotropical Region: Cercometes Reitter, 1875 and Neobrachypterus Jelínek, 1979; Oriental Region: some species of Brachypterus Kugelann, 1794, Heterhelus Jacquelin du Val, 1858, and Kateretes Herbst, 1793 (K. ornatus Jelínek, 1978); and Australian Region: Jelinekiella Kirejtshuk, 2000 (J. aterrima Kirejtshuk, 1986) and Notobrachypterus Blackburn, 1892 (JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010).
 Note. Detailed descriptions of the family were recently provided (e.g., KIREJTSHUK 1992, AUDISIO 1993, JELÍNEK & CLINE 2010). There are some comprehensive studies on Palaearctic fauna (KIRK- SPRIGGS 1996, SPORNRAFT 1967, KIREJTSHUK 1992, AUDISIO 1993), and a comprehensive treatment of the New World fauna is currently underway (Cline & Audisio, pers. comm. 2010). Some larvae were illustrated by BÖVING & CRAIGHEAD (1931), HAYASHI (1978), and CLINE & AUDISIO (unpubl.).

description: Nodal semimetals (e.g. Dirac, Weyl and nodal-line semimetals, graphene, etc.) and systems of pinned particles with power-law interactions (trapped ultracold ions, nitrogen defects in diamonds, spins in solids, etc.) are presently at the centre of attention of large communities of researchers working in condensed-matter and atomic, molecular and optical physics. Although seemingly unrelated, both classes of systems are abundant with novel fundamental thermodynamic and transport phenomena. In this paper, we demonstrate that low-energy field theories of quasiparticles in semimetals may be mapped exactly onto those of pinned particles with excitations which exhibit power-law hopping. The duality between the two classes of systems, which we establish, allows one to describe the transport and thermodynamics of each class of systems using the results established for the other class. In particular, using the duality mapping, we establish the existence of a novel class of disorder-driven transitions in systems with the power-law hopping $\propto1/r^γ$ of excitations with $d/2

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We report observations of the asynchronous polar BY Cam made using XMM-Newton. We find evidence for two accretion regions which have significantly different spectra. In both regions we find evidence for hard X-ray emission from the post-shock flow while we observe a distinct soft X-ray blackbody component in only one. We detect two emission lines in the RGS detectors which we attribute to Nitrogen NVI and NVII: the first time that Nitrogen lines have been detected in an X-ray spectrum of a cataclysmic variable. In the time interval where we observe short timescale variability we find the hard X-ray light curve is correlated with the softest energies in the sense that the hard X-rays trail the soft X-rays and are anti-correlated. We suggest that there are a small number of dense blobs of material which impact the white dwarf without forming a shock and release an amount of optically thick material which obscures hard X-rays for a short duration.

description: Spin Hamiltonian engineering in solid-state systems plays a key role in a variety of applications ranging from quantum information processing and quantum simulations to novel studies of many-body physics. By analyzing the irreducible form of a general two-body spin-1/2 Hamiltonian, we identify all interchangeable interaction terms using rotation pulses. Based on this identification, we derive novel pulse sequences, defined by an icosahedral symmetry group, providing the most general achievable manipulation of interaction terms. We demonstrate that, compared to conventional Clifford rotations, these sequences offer advantages for creating Zeeman terms essential for magnetic sensing, and could be utilized to generate new interaction forms. The exact series of pulses required to generate desired interaction terms can be determined from a linear programming algorithm. For realizing the sequences, we propose two experimental approaches, involving pulse product de-composition, and off-resonant driving. Resulting engineered Hamiltonians could contribute to the understanding of many-body physics, and result in the creation of novel quantum simulators and the generation of highly-entangled states, thereby opening avenues in quantum sensing and information processing.
A Detailed Thermal Analysis of the Binospec Spectrograph

description: Refractive optics in astronomical instruments are potentially sensitive to temperature gradients and temperature transients. This sensitivity arises from thermally dependent refractive indices, lens spacings, and lens dimensions. We have therefore undertaken a detailed thermal analysis of Binospec, a wide-field optical spectrograph under development for the converted MMT. Our goals are to predict the temperature gradients that will be present in the Binospec optics and structure under realistic operating conditions and to determine how design choices affect these gradients. We begin our analysis by deriving thermal time constants for instrument subassemblies. We then generate a low-resolution finite difference model of the entire instrument and high-resolution models of sensitive subassemblies. This approach to thermal analysis is applicable to a variety of other instruments. We use measurements of the ambient temperature in the converted MMT's dome to model Binospec's thermal environment. During moderate conditions we find that the Binospec lens groups develop 0.14 C axial and radial temperature gradients and that lens groups of different mass develop 0.5 C temperature differences; these numbers are doubled for the extreme conditions. Internal heat sources do not significantly affect these results; heat flow from the environment dominates. The instrument must be periodically opened to insert new aperture masks, but we find that the resulting temperature gradients and thermal stresses in the optics are small. Image shifts at the detector caused by thermal deflections of the Binospec optical bench structure are approx 0.1 pixel/hr. We conclude that the proposed Binospec design has acceptable thermal properties, and briefly discuss design changes to further reduce temperature gradients.

Non-equilibrium Ionization States Within Galactic Outflows: Explaining Their O VI and N V Column Densities

description: We present a suite of one-dimensional spherically-symmetric hydrodynamic simulations that study the atomic ionization structure of galactic outflows. We track the ionization state of the outflowing gas with a non-equilibrium atomic chemistry network that includes photoionization, photo-heating, and ion-by-ion cooling. Each simulation describes a steady-state outflow that is defined by its mass and energy input rates, sonic radius, metallicity, and UV flux from both the host galaxy and meta-galactic background. We find that for a large range of parameter choices, the ionization state of the material departs strongly from what it would be in photo-ionization equilibrium, in conflict with what is commonly assumed in the analysis of observations. In addition, nearly all the models reproduce the low N V to O VI column density ratios and the relatively high O VI column densities that are observed.

title: Using the UTAUT Model to Determine Factors Affecting Acceptance and Use of E-government Services in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

description: E-government has become a popular focus of government efforts in many countries around the world. More and more governments around the world are introducing e-government as a means of reducing costs, improving services, saving time and increasing effectiveness and efficiency in the public sector. E-government and the Internet has made an essential change to the whole of Saudi societal structure, values, and culture, as well as the ways of conducting business by utilizing the potential of ICT as a tool of daily work. Therefore, e-government has been identified as one of the top priorities for Saudi government and all its agencies. However, the adoption of e-government faces many challenges and barriers, including political, cultural, organizational, technological, and social issues which must be considered and treated carefully by any government contemplating e-government adoption. Findings of several studies indicate that despite the high cost of e-government projects, both tangible and intangible, many e-government efforts are failing or are slowly diffusing. This thesis presents a comprehensive study and investigation of the influential factors on the acceptance of using e-government services (G2C) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) by adopting the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. This study uses an amended version of the UTAUT model as its theoretical foundation. UTAUT is an empirically validated model that combines eight major models of technology acceptance and their extensions. The study investigates the effect of proposed UTAUT constructs and moderating variables on e-government services use and acceptance. Therefore, this study critically assesses key factors that influence e-government service acceptance in the public sector in Saudi Arabia, discusses the importance of citizen perspective about e-services, and provides a comprehensive assessment of e-service providers and citizens’ perceptions about the obstacles facing e-government services acceptance and use in Saudi Arabia. This thesis provide a comprehensive view and deep understanding of e-government services adoption based on the perceptions of e-services providers and Saudi citizens through the utilisation of the UTAUT model.
The Late-time Expansion of the Ejecta of SN 1987A

description: The evolution of the shape and size of the ejecta of SN 1987A is analyzed over a period of ~ 8 years based on HST images and spectra taken between 1278 and 4336 days after the supernova outburst. We combine both proprietary and archival HST data obtained with the FOC, WFPC2 and STIS. The low resolution near-UV prism FOC spectrum obtained at day 3043 has not been described previously. Although the FWHM of the ejecta grew linearly over the time span studied, the appearance of the SN envelope also changed markedly with wavelength. At visible wavelengths (lambda ~ 5000 Angstrom) the ejecta became progressively more elongated, reaching an ellipticity epsilon ~ 0.25 by day 4000. In the near-UV (lambda ~ 2500 AA), the ejecta remained closely circular (epsilon <= 0.1) and ~ 50% larger in angular extent than in the visible. The FOC prism observations show that the large extent of the SN envelope is confined to a grouping of resonance lines spanning Mg I 2852, Mg II 2795,2802 and several Fe II multiplets -- thereby confirming that the larger size of the debris in the near-UV is due to scattering in these optically thick transitions compared to the optically thin forbidden and semi-forbidden transitions that dominate the visible spectrum. The available data are not of sufficient quality to detect the slight deviation from linear expansion expected for the outermost regions of the near-UV images as predicted by Chugai et al. (1997).

Seed viability in soil depends on soil abiotic conditions, seed species, and soil biota. Compared to the vast amount of data on plant growth effects, next to nothing is known about how arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) could influence viability of seeds in the soil seed bank. To test whether AMF could influence seed bank viability, we conducted three two-factorial experiments using seeds of three herbaceous plant species (Taraxacum officinale, Dactylis glomerata, and Centaurea nigra) under mesocosm (experiments 1 and 2) and field conditions (experiment 3) and modifying the factor AMF presence (yes and no). To allow only hyphae to grow in and to prevent root penetration, paired root exclusion compartments (RECs) were used in experiments 2 and 3, which were either rotated (interrupted mycelium connection) or kept static (allows mycorrhizal connection). After harvesting, seed viability, soil water content, soil phosphorus availability, soil pH, and hyphal length in RECs were measured. In experiment 1, we used inoculation or not with the AMF Rhizophagus irregularis to establish the mycorrhizal treatment levels. A significant negative effect of mycorrhizal hyphae on viability of seeds was observed in experiments 1 and 3, and a similar trend in experiment 2. All three experiments showed that water content, soil pH, and AMF extraradical hyphal lengths were increased in the presence of AMF, but available P was decreased significantly. Viability of seeds in the soil seed bank correlated negatively with water content, soil pH, and AMF extraradical hyphal lengths and positively with soil P availability. Our results suggest that AMF can have a negative impact on soil seed viability, which is in contrast to the often-documented positive effects on plant growth. Such effects must now be included in our conceptual models of the AM symbiosis.

description: Space-based direct imaging missions (HabEx, LUVOIR) would observe reflected light from exoplanets in the habitable zones of Sun-like stars. The ultimate---but not sole---goal of these concept missions is to characterize such planets. Knowing an exoplanet's orbit would help two-fold: (i) its semi-major axis informs whether the planet might harbour surface liquid water, making it a priority target; and (ii) predicting the planet's future location would tell us where and when to look. The science yields of HabEx and LUVOIR depend on the number, cadence, and precision of observations required to establish a planet's orbit. We produce mock observations using realistic distributions for the six Keplerian orbital parameters, experimenting with both Beta and uniform eccentricity distributions, and accounting for imperfect astrometry ($σ$ = 3.5 mas) and obscuration due to the inner working angle of a high-contrast imaging system (IWA = 31 mas). Using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, we fit the orbital parameters, and retrieve their average precisions and accuracies as functions of cadence, number of epochs, and distance to target. Given the time at which it was acquired, each image provides two data: the $x$ and $y$ position of the planet with respect to its star. Parameter retrieval based on one or two images is formally under-constrained; yet the semi-major axis posterior can be obtained semi-analytically. For a planet at 1 AU around a star at a distance of 10 pc, three epochs constrain the semi-major axis to within $\lesssim$5\%, if each image is taken at least 90 days apart.

title: Engaging Adult Piano Students Through Transformative Pedagogical Approaches

subject: Transformative pedagogical approaches

description: As the number of adults seeking to learn the piano increases, so too does the need for piano teachers to understand how to better facilitate their learning. This research offers detailed pedagogical insights into understanding and meeting the learning needs of six adult piano students through the author’s practitioner-based study. It investigates the use of transformative pedagogical strategies aimed at engaging adult students in all areas of their learning. The main themes explored are relevance and repertoire selection, lesson interactions and home practice. Using self-direction and experiential learning as the theoretical framework for this study, the author uncovers skill sets and mindsets associated with engagement in the contexts of adult piano students’ one-to-one piano lessons and home practice. The experiential learning cycle encompasses the metacognitive and cognitive skills associated with deliberate piano practice and self-direction. These include planning and implementing appropriate practice strategies, observing and reflecting on outcomes and adapting approaches to tasks accordingly. Developing and utilising these skills, however, is dependent on mindset factors that students bring to their learning. These include expectations, self-efficacy levels, epistemological beliefs, goal orientations and attributions. This nine-month study explores how these mindsets impacted students’ learning and how altering the author’s teaching strategies contributed to fostering mindsets conducive to student engagement.

description: We present calculations of the radio emission from supernovae based on high-resolution simulations of the hydrodynamics and radiation transfer, using simple energy density relations which link the properties of the radiating electrons and the magnetic field to the hydrodynamics. As a specific example we model the emission from SN1993J, which cannot be adequately fitted with the often-used analytic mini-shell model, and present a good fit to the radio evolution at a single frequency. Both free-free absorption and syncrotron self- absorption are needed to fit the light curve at early times and a circumstellar density profile of rho~r^-1.7 provides the best fit to the later data. We show that the interaction of density structures in the ejecta with the reverse supernova shock may produce features in the radio light curves such as have been observed. We discuss the use of high-resolution radio images of supernovae to distinguish between different absorption mechanisms and determine the origin of specific light curve features. Comparisons of VLBI images of SN1993J with synthetic model images suggest that internal free-free absorption completely obscures emission at 8.4 GHz passing through the center of the supernova for the first few tens of years after explosion. We predict that at 8.4 GHz the internal free-free absorption is currently declining, and that over the next 40 years the surface brightness of the center of the source should increase relative to the bright ring of emission seen in VLBI images. Similar absorption in a nearby supernova would make the detection of a radio pulsar at 1 GHz impossible for ~150 years after explosion.

description: More than 150 galaxies have been detected in blank-field millimetre and sub-millimetre surveys. However the redshift distribution of sub-mm galaxies remains uncertain due to the difficulty in identifying their optical-IR counterparts, and subsequently obtaining their spectroscopic emission-line redshifts. In this paper we discuss results from a Monte-Carlo analysis of the accuracy with which one can determine redshifts from photometric measurements at sub-millimetre-FIR wavelengths. The analysis takes into account the dispersion in colours introduced by including galaxies with a distribution of SEDs, and by including photometric and absolute calibration errors associated with real observations. We present examples of the probability distribution of redshifts for individual galaxies detected in the future BLAST and Herschel/SPIRE surveys. We show that the combination of BLAST and 850um observations constrain the photometric redshifts with sufficient accuracy to pursue a program of spectroscopic follow-up with the 100m GBT.

The Role of Teacher–Child Relationship Quality in Black and Latino Boys’ Positive Development

Year: 2022

description:
The present study examined boys’ race in moderating the association between teacher–child relationship quality, measured by closeness and conflict, and boys’ language gains and conduct problems change scores during Pre-K. The study was conducted using data from the National Center for Early Development and Learning’s (NCEDL) Multi-State Study of Pre-Kindergarten and the NCEDL-NIEER State-Wide Early Education Programs Study (SWEEP Study). Participants were 1,228 boys in 660 pre-K classrooms. On average, pre-K teachers had closer relationships with White boys than Latino boys and more conflictual relationships with Black boys than boys of other races. The results from the moderation analyses suggest that close teacher–child relationships serve as a promotive factor for Latino and Black boys’ teacher-reported language gains. Simultaneously, teacher–child relationships characterized by high levels of conflict predicted larger change scores in conduct problems for Black boys compared to boys of other races. The findings from this study highlight the impact of teacher–child relationships for the development and learning of boys of color. The present study may inform future professional development efforts to enhance positive teacher–child relationships for children of color in early childhood settings.

description: This paper presents the first few-shot LLM-based chatbot that almost never hallucinates and has high conversationality and low latency. WikiChat is grounded on the English Wikipedia, the largest curated free-text corpus.
 WikiChat generates a response from an LLM, retains only the grounded facts, and combines them with additional information it retrieves from the corpus to form factual and engaging responses. We distill WikiChat based on GPT-4 into a 7B-parameter LLaMA model with minimal loss of quality, to significantly improve its latency, cost and privacy, and facilitate research and deployment.
 Using a novel hybrid human-and-LLM evaluation methodology, we show that our best system achieves 97.3% factual accuracy in simulated conversations. It significantly outperforms all retrieval-based and LLM-based baselines, and by 3.9%, 38.6% and 51.0% on head, tail and recent knowledge compared to GPT-4. Compared to previous state-of-the-art retrieval-based chatbots, WikiChat is also significantly more informative and engaging, just like an LLM.
 WikiChat achieves 97.9% factual accuracy in conversations with human users about recent topics, 55.0% better than GPT-4, while receiving significantly higher user ratings and more favorable comments.

description: Generation and manipulation of many-body entangled states is of considerable interest, for applications in quantum simulation or sensing, for example. Measurement and verification of the resulting many-body state presents a formidable challenge, however, which can be simplified by multiplexed readout using shared measurement resources. In this work, we analyze and demonstrate state retrodiction for a system of optomechanical oscillators coupled to a single-mode optical cavity. Coupling to the shared cavity field facilitates simultaneous optical measurement of the oscillators' transient dynamics at distinct frequencies. Optimal estimators for the oscillators' initial state can be defined as a set of linear matched filters, derived from a detailed model for the detected homodyne signal. We find that the optimal state estimate for optomechanical retrodiction is obtained from high-cooperativity measurements, reaching estimate sensitivity at the Standard Quantum Limit (SQL). Simultaneous estimation of the state of multiple oscillators places additional limits on the estimate precision, due to the diffusive noise each oscillator adds to the optomechanical signal. However, we show that the sensitivity of simultaneous multi-mode state retrodiction reaches the SQL for sufficiently well-resolved oscillators. Finally, an experimental demonstration of two-mode retrodiction is presented, which requires further accounting for technical fluctuations of the oscillator frequency.

The method was tested on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Early Data Release (SDSS-EDR) reaching an accuracy comparable and, in some cases, better than SED template fitting techniques. Different neural networks architecture have been tested and the combination of a Multi Layer Perceptron with 1 hidden layer (22 neurons) operated in a Bayesian framework, with a Self Organizing Map used to estimate the accuracy of the results, turned out to be the most effective. In the best experiment, the implemented network reached an accuracy of 0.020 (interquartile error) in the range 0

description: A citizens' jury is a group of about 12 to 24 ordinary citizens, selected using random and stratified sampling who deliberate on a public policy issue with the intention of influencing the outcome. The study aimed to explore how citizen jurors hear and respond to consumer voices in healthcare citizens' jury settings. The study found that consumer voices are heard and assessed by jurors as consumer claims, leading to the developmet of a theory that enhances our understanding of how citizen jurors hear, assess and decide consumer claims amid the purported neutralily of healthcare citizens' juries. The theory comprises a set of integrated categories and concepts and provides an interpretive understanding about the relationships belween these concepts that can be tested in future work. Constructivist grounded theory was employed to inductively explore the phenomenon of consumer voices in healthcare citizens' juries. Three citizens' juries (comprising 51 jurors in total) were observed and 22 jurors from one jury were provided with diaries and were interviewed. The theory was developed and verified through simultaneous data collection and analysis and integration of the concepts and categories constructed during the sludy and the existing literature (Charmaz, 2014).
