Tetmemorus furcatus

description: Tetmemorus furcatus G.J.P.Ramos & C.W.N.Moura, sp. nov. (Figs 63–65)
Cell distinctly longer than wide; cell outline roughly cylindrical, median constriction shallow; cell fusiform, lateral margins smooth, slightly concave, converging toward the apices, apical margin bifurcate, with an incision deep, open, V-shaped; cell wall smooth, finely punctuated; semicells circular in apical view, fusiform in lateral view. Cell dimensions: length 85–96 μm, width 26–28 μm, isthmus 23–26 μm.
 Holotype: material numbered (HUEFS 244148!) deposited at Herbário da Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana, population illustrated here in LM (Figs 63–65).
 Etymology: The epithet refers of furcate incision in the apices of semicells.
 Type locality and habitat characteristics: Collected at “Vale do Capão”, Palmeiras, Bahia state, Brazil. Lat. 12º 30’ 31” S, Long. 41º 29’ 10” W. Sample collected by G. J. P.Ramos s/n (HUEFS 244148) on 26 February 2017. Tetmemorus furcatus occurred in periphyton, with quiet and warm waters, associated to filamentous algae.
 Notes: The main diagnostic feature of this new species is the presence of a bifurcate incision (V-shaped) in the apices. The morphologically closest taxon to the new species is Tetmemorus granulatus var. attenuatus West (1892: 132), which differs by having apices with a closed mid incision, in addition to larger cell dimensions (4–4.6 times longer than wide). T. furcatus also has somewhat more turgid cells than the other Tetmemorus species.

description: We study the effect of spatially correlated classical noise on both Anderson and many-body localization of a disordered fermionic chain. By analyzing the evolution of the particle density imbalance following a quench from an initial charge density wave state, we find prominent signatures of localization also in the presence of the time-dependent noise, even though the system eventually relaxes to the infinite temperature state. In particular, for sufficiently strong static disorder we observe the onset of metastability, which becomes more prominent the stronger the spatial correlations of the noise. In this regime we find that the imbalance decays as a stretched-exponential - a behavior characteristic of glassy systems. We identify a simple scaling behavior of the relevant relaxation times in terms of the static disorder and of the noise correlation length. We discuss how our results could be exploited to extract information about the localization length in experimental setups.

description: Electronic structure methods typically benefit from symmetry breaking and restoration, specially in the strong correlation regime. The same goes for Ansätze on a quantum computer. We develop a unitary coupled cluster method on the antisymmetrized geminal power (AGP) -- a state formally equivalent to the number-projected Bardeen--Cooper--Schrieffer wavefunction. We demonstrate our method for the single-band Fermi--Hubbard Hamiltonian in one and two dimensions. We also explore post-selection as a state preparation step to obtain correlated AGP and prove that it scales no worse than $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{M})$ in the number of measurements, thereby making it a less expensive alternative to gauge integration to restore particle number symmetry.

description: The ongoing exploration of the ambiguous boundary between the quantum and the classical worlds has spurred substantial developments in quantum science and technology. Recently, the nonclassicality of dynamical processes has been proposed from a quantum-information-theoretic perspective, in terms of witnessing nonclassical correlations with Hamiltonian ensemble simulations. To acquire insights into the quantum-dynamical mechanism of the process nonclassicality, here we propose to investigate the nonclassicality of the electron spin free-induction-decay process associated with an NV$^-$ center. By controlling the nuclear spin precession dynamics via an external magnetic field and nuclear spin polarization, it is possible to manipulate the dynamical behavior of the electron spin, showing a transition between classicality and nonclassicality. We propose an explanation of the classicality-nonclassicality transition in terms of the nuclear spin precession axis orientation and dynamics. We have also performed a series of numerical simulations supporting our findings. Consequently, we can attribute the nonclassical trait of the electron spin dynamics to the behavior of nuclear spin precession dynamics.

description: In this work, we present an efficient framework that combines machine learning potential (MLP) and metadynamics to explore multi-dimensional free energy surfaces for investigating solid-solid phase transition. Based on the spectral descriptors and neural networks regression, we have developed a computationally scalable MLP model to warrant an accurate interpolation of the energy surface where two phases coexist. Applying the framework to the metadynamics simulation of B4-B1 phase transition of GaN under 50 GPa with different model sizes, we observe the sequential change of phase transition mechanism from collective modes to nucleation and growths. When the system size is at or below 128 000 atoms, the nucleation and growth appear to follow a preferred direction. At larger sizes, the nucleation tends to occur at multiple sites simultaneously and grow to microstructures by passing the critical size. The observed change of atomistic mechanism manifests the importance of statistical sampling with large system size. The combination of MLP and metadynamics is likely to be applicable to a broad class of induced reconstructive phase transitions at extreme conditions.

description: Consider a supercritical branching random walk on the real line. The consistent maximal displacement is the smallest of the distances between the trajectories followed by individuals at the $n$th generation and the boundary of the process. Fang and Zeitouni, and Faraud, Hu and Shi proved that under some integrability conditions, the consistent maximal displacement grows almost surely at rate $λ^* n^{1/3}$ for some explicit constant $λ^*$. We obtain here a necessary and sufficient condition for this asymptotic behaviour to hold.

description: Intelligence is highly heritable. Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) have shown that thousands of alleles contribute to variation in intelligence with small effect sizes. Polygenic scores (PGS), which combine these effects into one genetic summary measure, are increasingly used to investigate polygenic effects in independent samples. Whereas PGS explain a considerable amount of variance in intelligence, it is largely unknown how brain structure and function mediate this relationship. Here, we show that individuals with higher PGS for educational attainment and intelligence had higher scores on cognitive tests, larger surface area, and more efficient fiber connectivity derived by graph theory. Fiber network efficiency as well as the surface of brain areas partly located in parieto‐frontal regions were found to mediate the relationship between PGS and cognitive performance. These findings are a crucial step forward in decoding the neurogenetic underpinnings of intelligence, as they identify specific regional networks that link polygenic predisposition to intelligence.

description: We present the analysis of several newly obtained and archived photometric and spectroscopic datasets of the intriguing and yet poorly understood 13.5-mag central star candidate of the bipolar planetary nebula Sh2-71. Photometric observations confirmed the previously determined quasi-sinusoidal lightcurve with a period of 68 days and also indicated periodic sharp brightness dips, possibly eclipses, with a period of 17.2 days. In addition, the comparison between U and V lightcurves revealed that the 68-day brightness variations are accompanied by a variable reddening effect of $ΔE(U-V)=0.38$. Spectroscopic datasets demonstrated pronounced variations in spectral profiles of Balmer, helium and singly ionised metal lines and indicated that these variations occur on a time-scale of a few days. The most accurate verification to date revealed that spectral variability is not correlated with the 68-day brightness variations. The mean radial velocity of the observed star was measured to be $\sim$26 km/s with an amplitude of $\pm$40 km/s. The spectral type was determined to be B8V through spectral comparison with synthetic and standard spectra. The newly proposed model for the central star candidate is a Be binary with a misaligned precessing disc.

description: The leading contribution to the uncertainties of atmospheric neutrino flux calculations arise from the cosmic-ray nucleon flux and the production cross sections of secondary particles in hadron-air interactions. The data-driven model developed in this work parametrizes particle yields from fixed-target accelerator data. The propagation of errors from the accelerator data to the inclusive muon and neutrino flux predictions results in smaller uncertainties than in previous estimates, and the description of atmospheric flux data is good. The model is implemented as part of the MCEq package, and hence can be flexibly employed for theoretical flux error estimation at neutrino telescopes.

Su una possibile affinità tra filosofia e mistica: la riflessione fenomenologica di Michel Henry
Creators: name: Santasilia, Stefano
Publisher: name: Nuovo Giornale di Filosofia della Religione (NGFR)
Year: 2023

description: La riflessione fenomenologica di Michel Henry si costituisce, sin dal suo principio, come una critica della fenomenologia tradizionale, alla luce della stessa definizione del fenomeno. Attraverso tale critica, il filosofo cerca di sviluppare un cammino speculativo capace di condurre al “captare” l’assoluto, inteso come essenza della stessa manifestazione, come apparire dell’apparire stesso (Parousia). La manifestazione della manifestazione implica che il suo darsi si realizzi in un orizzonte che sfugge alla visibilità e alla trascendenza, determinandosi come “invisibile” in quanto “immanenza radicale”. Nello sviluppo del suo discorso, Henry fa riferimento a due autori che appartengono sia alla storia del pensiero quanto a quella della mistica, precisamente della mistica speculativa: Jacob Böhme e Meister Eckhart. Il presente contributo intende mostrare brevemente il senso di tali riferimenti che collocherebbe Michel Henry nell’ambito di quelle ricerche che affermano e indagano le possibili affinità tra pensiero filosofico ed esperienza mistica. Michel Henry's phenomenological reflection is constituted, from its early beginning, as a critique of traditional phenomenology, in the light of the authentic definition of the phenomenon. Through this critique, the philosopher tries to develop a speculative path capable of leading to the “capture” of the absolute, understood as the essence of the manifestation itself, as the appearing of the appearing itself (Parousia). The manifestation of the manifestation implies that its giving itself takes place in a horizon that escapes visibility and transcendence, determining itself as “invisible” because of “radical immanence”. In developing his speech, Henry refers to two authors who belong both to the history of thought and of mysticism, specifically of speculative mysticism: Jacob Böhme and Meister Eckhart. The present contribution aims to briefly show the meaning of these references that would place Michel Henry himself in the context of those researches that affirm and investigate the possible affinities between philosophical thought and mystical experience.

description: Compared to the error diffusion, dot diffusion provides an additional pixel-level parallelism for digital halftoning. However, even though its periodic and blocking artifacts had been eased by previous works, it was still far from satisfactory in terms of the blue noise spectrum perspective. In this work, we strengthen the relationship among the pixel locations of the same processing order by an iterative halftoning method, and the results demonstrate a significant improvement. Moreover, a new approach of deriving the averaged power spectrum density (APSD) is proposed to avoid the regular sampling of the well-known Bartlett's procedure which inaccurately presents the halftone periodicity of certain halftoning techniques with parallelism. As a result, the proposed dot diffusion is substantially superior to the state-of-the-art parallel halftoning methods in terms of visual quality and artifact-free property, and competitive runtime to the theoretical fastest ordered dithering is offered simultaneously.

description: The spectral conductivity, i.e., the electrical conductivity as a function of the Fermi energy, is a cornerstone in determining the thermoelectric transport properties of electrons. However, the spectral conductivity depends on sample-specific properties such as carrier concentrations, vacancies, charge impurities, chemical compositions, and material microstructures, making it difficult to relate the experimental result with the theoretical prediction directly. Here, we propose a data-driven approach based on machine learning to reconstruct the spectral conductivity and chemical potential from the thermoelectric transport data. Using this machine learning method, we first demonstrate that the spectral conductivity and temperature-dependent chemical potentials can be recovered within a simple toy model. In a second step, we apply our method to experimental data in doped one-dimensional telluride Ta$_4$SiTe$_4$~[T. Inohara, \textit{et al.}, Appl. Phys. Lett. \textbf{110}, 183901 (2017)] to reconstruct the spectral conductivity and chemical potential for each sample. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity of electrons and the maximal figure of merit $ZT$ are estimated from the reconstructed spectral conductivity, which provides accurate estimates beyond the Wiedemann-Franz law. Our study clarifies the connection between the thermoelectric transport properties and the low-energy electronic states of real materials, and establishes a promising route to incorporate experimental data into traditional theory-driven workflows.

description: study started an investigation into the archeology of the largest construction sites that concerned the monastery. Given the limited availability of archival documents, the research was based both on the interpretation of the survey of the construction and the direct analysis of the artifact. Providing specific dating was not the aim pursued; in fact it was to highlight the constructive relations between some key interventions, which were not known until now or whose importance was not fully understood. In particular, the monastery and the remains of the original crypt, incorporated and re-used under the presbytery of the church, have been taken into account. Great changes have been identified in the East Wing of the monastery, where the original nucleus was formed by a first part of the bell tower and an adjacent room on the ground floor. In the west wing, besides highlighting many additions, a large space was brought to light covered by tympanum arches, which had been forgotten and was probably used as a refectory.

description: Studies of the spin, parity and tensor couplings of the Higgs boson in the $H\rightarrow ZZ^*\rightarrow 4\ell$, $H\rightarrow WW^* \rightarrow eνμν$ and $H\rightarrow γγ$ decay processes at the LHC are presented. The investigations are based on $25$ fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at $\sqrt{ s} = 7$ TeV and $\sqrt{ s }= 8$ TeV. The Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson hypothesis, corresponding to the quantum numbers $J ^P=0^+$, is tested against several alternative spin scenarios, including non-SM spin-0 and spin-2 models with universal and non-universal couplings to fermions and vector bosons. All tested alternative models are excluded in favour of the SM Higgs boson hypothesis at more than 99.9% confidence level. Using the $H\rightarrow ZZ^*\rightarrow 4\ell$ and $H\rightarrow WW^* \rightarrow eνμν$ decays, the tensor structure of the $HVV$ interaction in the spin-0 hypothesis is also investigated. The observed distributions of variables sensitive to the non-SM tensor couplings are compatible with the SM predictions and constraints on the non-SM couplings are derived.

Il presente articolo fornisce ulteriori elementi a tale dibattito interrogando l’opera di Joseph J. von Görres (1776-†1848), autore di una corposa Christliche Mystik, 4 voll. (1836-1842), che rappresentò il primo tentativo di costruire una “storia della mistica” secondo un criterio “scientifico”. During the last fifty years, it has been developed a debate on the nature of mysticism, in which has been also examined its relationship with philosophy and the history of religious thought. The present paper intends to contribue to such debate, reconstructing the ideas of Joseph J. von Görres (1776-†1848) on these topics. Görres was the author of an impressive Christliche Mystik, 4 vols. (1836-1842), which represented the first attempt to define a “history of mysticism” through “scientific” criteria.

Specifically, we focus on the dynamics after a quantum quench of the Rényi entropies, of the mutual information and of the entanglement negativity in the prototypical XXZ spin chain with random bonds and anisotropy parameters. We provide analytic predictions in the scaling regime based on real-space renormalization group methods. We support these findings through numerical simulations in the non-interacting limit, where we can access the scaling regime.

description: The interest of compressive sampling in ultrasound imaging has been recently extensively evaluated by several research teams. Following the different application setups, it has been shown that the RF data may be reconstructed from a small number of measurements and/or using a reduced number of ultrasound pulse emissions. Nevertheless, RF image spatial resolution, contrast and signal to noise ratio are affected by the limited bandwidth of the imaging transducer and the physical phenomenon related to US wave propagation. To overcome these limitations, several deconvolution-based image processing techniques have been proposed to enhance the ultrasound images. In this paper, we propose a novel framework, named compressive deconvolution, that reconstructs enhanced RF images from compressed measurements. Exploiting an unified formulation of the direct acquisition model, combining random projections and 2D convolution with a spatially invariant point spread function, the benefit of our approach is the joint data volume reduction and image quality improvement. The proposed optimization method, based on the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers, is evaluated on both simulated and in vivo data.

description: Archaeological artifacts are inevitably subject to deterioration caused by natural air pollution, contaminants by human actions, and biodeterioration from microorganisms. Their preservation is considered a more and more strategic factor in many countries because of their economic, social and cultural implications. Modern techniques of interventions often require re-application after some years, and they cannot be used in all restorations. Recently, the use of nanotechnologies was transferred to the restoration sector bringing many innovations. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is the main nanostructured material used to prevent the comparison of weathering traces, to obtain self-cleaning materials and to slow down biofouling as well. In this paper, its potential use was tested on common archaeological materials like sandstone, limestone and bricks. The self-cleaning ability of this innovative material, as well as, its biofouling prevention were evaluated in laboratory simulated tests. Results show the high potentiality of this nanomaterial in making the tested archaeological surfaces self-cleaning and biocide.

In un primo paragrafo il saggio ricostruisce i temi fondamentali del dibattito sulla mistica e poi presenta un’analisi e un’interpretazione del Trattato sulla visione di Dio che cercano di mettere in luce l’originalità della posizione di Cusano.

In a first paragraph, the essay reconstructs the main themes of the debate on mysticism and then provides an analysis and interpretation of the Treatise on the Vision of God that seek to highlight the distinctiveness of Cusanus’ philosophical thought.

description: The system of medieval military fortifications in the Italian territory constitutes a fundamental part of the monumental and historical heritage of our country. Of these, several, have come to the present day with the architectural consistency of the ruin and, despite their high documentary value, very often characterized by an advanced state of deterioration and neglect that calls into serious risk their preservation and survival. The Castrum Flastrae constitutes a significant synthesis of this reality and, for this reason, has been undertaken a research on this important military fortification with the hope that this work will serve as a concrete starting point for future conservation action and that can serve as driving force for raising awareness and dissemination of a fundamental theme like this for the outback Macerata’s territory and for the “Monti Sibillini National Park”.

description: The quest to govern the driving forces behind superconductivity and gain control over the superconducting transition temperature $T_{c}$ is as old as the phenomenon itself. Microscopically, this requires a proper understanding of the evolution of electron-lattice interactions in their parameter space. We report such a controlled study on $T_{c}$ in In$_{x}$Te via fine-tuning the In stoichiometry $x$. We find that increasing $x$ from 0.84 to 1 results in an enhancement of $T_{c}$ from 1.3 K to 3.5 K accompanied by an increase of the electron-phonon coupling constant from 0.45 to 0.63. Employing first-principles calculations, we show that this behavior is driven by two factors, each taking the dominant role depending on $x$. For $x\lesssim 0.92$, the major role is played by the density of electronic states at the Fermi level. Above $x\sim 0.92$, the change in the density of states flattens while the enhancement of $T_{c}$ continues. We attribute this to a systematic softening of lattice vibrations, amplifying the electron-phonon coupling, and hence, $T_{c}$.

Analisi storico-archeologica di una cisterna post-medievale del contado fiorentino
Creators: name: Arrighetti, Andrea
Publisher: name: Restauro Archeologico
Year: 2016

description: The paper is focused on the historical and archaeological analysis of a post-medieval cistern located in the municipality of Sesto Fiorentino, close to the city of Florence. The structure is well preserved but the intense transformations that has undergone the context in the last fifty years caused a “decontextualization” of the building within the landscape. The ancient landscape characterized by olive-groves and orchards with the sporadic presence of villas, during the last fifty years, became an industrial and residential area, with the consequent construction of numerous buildings that have profoundly transformed the landscape and the architecture. Today the few surviving ancient evidences may include some villas built during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and some artifacts of medieval period that is profoundly decontextualized. The object of study of this paper is a cistern located inside an industrial area whose first sources date back to the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries; an interesting element that represent an evidence of constructive culture and methods of the florentine society for the exploitation of natural resources.

description: Consapevoli del risveglio spirituale cui si assiste in questo nostro tempo di disorientamento esistenziale, proponiamo alcune riflessioni spirituali, ispirate e corroborate anche dalle scienze fisico-matematiche. Con un linguaggio “traversale” a questi ambiti, consideriamo alcuni temi: la conversione vista come convergenza, alla luce del comportamento dell’ago di una bussola – che pur sottoposto a molti campi energetici, si stabilizza verso il polo nord – ; l’emersione reciproca del cosmo da Dio e di Dio dal cosmo – secondo il modello matematico della spirale – ; la “fecondazione” del tempo lineare, percepito dall’uomo, da parte della “fine del tempo” portata da Cristo – con riferimento alla teoria della relatività di Einstein – ; la multi-dimensionalità della relazione tra coscienze individuali – al modo dei quattro vettori indipendenti delle astrazioni matematiche – ; la rilettura dell’amore di filia, arricchito di eros e agape, quale forma di energia trina e unificata – coerentemente con il principio di indeterminazione di Heisenberg e l’inscindibile rapporto tra materia ed energia. Aware of the spiritual awakening we witness in this time of existential disorientation, we propose some spiritual reflections, inspired and corroborated also by physicomathematical sciences. With a “transversal” language to these areas, let us consider some themes: conversion seen as convergence, in the light of the behavior of a compass needle – which, subjected to many energy fields, stabilizes towards the north pole – ; the reciprocal emergence of the cosmos from God and of God from the cosmos – according to the mathematical model of the spiral – ; the “fertilization” of linear time, perceived by man, by the “end of time” brought by Christ – with reference to Einstein’s theory of relativity – ; the multi-dimensionality of the relationship between individual consciousnesses – in the manner of the four independent vectors of mathematical abstractions – ; the reinterpretation of filia love, enriched by eros and agape, as a form of triune and unified energy – in accordance with Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle and the unavoidable relationship between matter and energy.

Il progetto strategico di ricerca “FIMU - Le mura urbane e il sistema difensivo di Firenze”

description: The city walls are one of the most fascinating architectural types extant from ancient times when the foundation of a city was done tracing the perimeter along which the city walls were to be built. The tracing constituted a religious (the sacred sphere), social and political-military act. Even today, the knowledge about the walls of Florence isn’t easily accessible to all: the traces of the oldest masonry circuits are not visible, or are in too harsh conditions and in small areas. The poor visibility of the traces, also of the last circle (the sixth one) is worsened by the large urban ‘restructuring’ of the nineteenth century when was reduced the formal and visual continuity of the entire circuit of the city walls. In the current year, the University of Florence approved and funded the ‘strategic project of basic research’, in collaboration with the City of Florence, entitled "FIMU - The city walls and the Florence defensive system: representation and communication of the urban landscape between tradition and innovation".

description: Ordered and disordered behavior in large ensembles of coupled oscillators map to different functional states in a wide range of applications, e.g., active and resting states in the brain and stable and unstable power grid configurations. For this reason, explosive synchronization transitions, which facilitate fast, abrupt changes between these functional states, has recently seen significant interest from researchers. While previous work has identified properties of complex systems that support explosive synchronization, these investigations have been conducted largely on an ad-hoc basis. Here we provide an exact criterion for explosive synchronization in coupled phase oscillator ensembles by investigating the necessary relationship between dynamical and structural disorder. This result provides a critical step towards untangling the intertwined properties of complex systems responsible for abrupt phase transitions and bistability in biological and engineered systems.

description: We present an application for the calculation of radial distribution functions for molecular centres of mass, based on trajectories generated by molecular simulation methods (Molecular Dynamics, Monte Carlo). When designing this application, the emphasis was placed on ease of use as well as ease of further development. In its current version, the program can read trajectories generated by the well-known DL_POLY package, but it can be easily extended to treat other formats. It is also very easy to 'hack' the program so it can compute intermolecular radial distribution functions for groups of interaction sites rather than whole molecules.

description: Nel saggio sono esaminati alcuni significati del termine “mistica” nella contemporaneità. In primo luogo, si distingue l’uso negativo in riferimento a qualcosa di fantasticato e non valido, in secondo luogo, si prendono in considerazione i casi in cui ci si referisce positivamente ad esperienze che si collocano nella dimensione religiosa, della quale si tracciano le caratteristiche essenziali. Su questo terreno la mistica è considerata come un’esperienza straordinaria di contatto con il divino, ad esempio, la mistica sponsale, oppure come un continuo legame di unione con il divino, mistica del quotidiano. Un terzo caso è quello delle vie filosofiche alla mistica, intesa come culmine e superamento della ricerca razionale. Le molte vie, nonostante la diversità dei percorsi, tendono ad un’unica meta: l’incontro con il divino. In the essay I examine some meanings of the term “mysticism” in our time. Firstly, it is necessary to distinguish the use of the term in a negative sense to indicate something just fruit of our phantasy, then not valid according to the experience; secondly, it is possible to consider some cases in which mistics is linked up to with the religious experience. Starting from it mistics can be considered as an extraordinary experience of the divine, such as the nuptial mysticism for example, or as a continuous connection with the divine, that is the mistics of the everyday life. A third case is the one of the philosophical itineraries to the mystical experience, as culmination and the overcoming of the rational research. The many ways, notwithstanding the different courses, tend toward a unique goal: the encounter with the divine.

description: The farming industry constantly seeks the automation of different processes involved in agricultural production, such as sowing, harvesting and weed control. The use of mobile autonomous robots to perform those tasks is of great interest. Arable lands present hard challenges for Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems, key for mobile robotics, given the visual difficulty due to the highly repetitive scene and the crop leaves movement caused by the wind. In recent years, several Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO) and SLAM systems have been developed. They have proved to be robust and capable of achieving high accuracy in indoor and outdoor urban environments. However, they were not properly assessed in agricultural fields. In this work we assess the most relevant state-of-the-art VIO systems in terms of accuracy and processing time on arable lands in order to better understand how they behave on these environments. In particular, the evaluation is carried out on a collection of sensor data recorded by our wheeled robot in a soybean field, which was publicly released as the Rosario Dataset. The evaluation shows that the highly repetitive appearance of the environment, the strong vibration produced by the rough terrain and the movement of the leaves caused by the wind, expose the limitations of the current state-of-the-art VIO and SLAM systems. We analyze the systems failures and highlight the observed drawbacks, including initialization failures, tracking loss and sensitivity to IMU saturation. Finally, we conclude that even though certain systems like ORB-SLAM3 and S-MSCKF show good results with respect to others, more improvements should be done to make them reliable in agricultural fields for certain applications such as soil tillage of crop rows and pesticide spraying.
