description: Despite the fundamental nature of the edge state in topological physics, direct measurement of electronic and optical properties of the Fermi arcs of topological semimetals has posed a significant experimental challenge, as their response is often overwhelmed by the metallic bulk. However, laser-driven currents carried by surface and bulk states can propagate in different directions in nonsymmorphic crystals, allowing for the two components to be easily separated. Motivated by a recent theoretical prediction \cite{chang20}, we have measured the linear and circular photogalvanic effect currents deriving from the Fermi arcs of the nonsymmorphic, chiral Weyl semimetal RhSi over the $0.45 - 1.1$ eV incident photon energy range. Our data are in good agreement with the predicted magnitude of the circular photogalvanic effect as a function of photon energy, although the direction of the surface photocurrent departed from the theoretical expectation over the energy range studied. Surface currents arising from the linear photogalvanic effect were observed as well, with the unexpected result that only two of the six allowed tensor element were required to describe the measurements, suggesting an approximate emergent mirror symmetry inconsistent with the space group of the crystal.

description: We point out that it is possible to associate the electroweak Higgs boson with the pseudo-Goldstone boson of broken scale invariance, thus resolving the hierarchy problem in a technically natural way. We illustrate this idea with two specific gauge models. Besides being consistent with all currently available experimental data, both models maintain the predictive power of the standard model, since the first model has only one additional parameter beyond the standard model, and the second has the same number of free parameters as the standard model.

GG-04: Recording Medium Configurations for Double-Layer Bit-Patterned Magnetic Recording
Creators: Chanon Warisarn
Publisher: name: IEEE
Year: 2023

Magnetic Recording
With the tremendous increase in the demand for larger storage capacity, new recording technologies are essential to support this ever-increasing demand. One of the promising technologies is bit-patterned magnetic recording (BPMR) [1]. Recently, ideas of increasing an areal density (AD) by stacking multiple recording mediums upward have been explored on a conventional medium [2]-[3]. To further maximize the storage capacity, BPMR system with a stack of two recording layers each of which is a bit-patterned medium has been investigated [4]-[5]. Since the lower layer is further from the read/write head, difficulty in the retrieval signal and processing of data from the lower layer is expected. In this work, we examine two distinct configurations of recording medium in BPMR system with double recording layers as shown in Fig. 1. Recording medium in the first configuration employs two layers containing rectangular close-packed arrays of circular islands. In contrast, hexagonally packed arrays of islands are considered in the second configuration. In both configurations, the centers of individual islands on the lower layer are positioned under the gaps between magnetic islands on the upper layer. Such an arrangement potentially mitigates inter-layer interference that may occur during the superposition of signals from the upper and lower layers in the readback waveforms as shown in Fig. 2. By utilizing oversampling, we simply achieve the separation of the individual layer signals since the centers of islands on both layers are not aligned with one another. This also allows the simultaneous processing of data from both layers during one-dimensional equalization and detection. In the early stages, simulation results indicate that the proposed configurations can deeply improve the bit error rate (BER) performance compared with the single-layer BPMR system, considering a total AD of 4 Tb/in2 and a perfect writing condition.References: [1] B.D.

The development of representational change from three to five years of age in two domains of knowledge
Creators: name: Penner, David Edward
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This study investigated the development of children's understanding of representational change when presented with natural kind and human artifact stimuli. Fifteen three-year-old, 21 four-year-old and 19 five-year-old children were shown four natural kind and four human artifact picture pairs. The initial drawing of each was constructed to suggest the object of interest. Following a story, each child was then shown the second drawing, which showed the true nature of the object. The picture pairs were then put away and the child asked what she had thought the first picture of the pair to be. Following the collection of the representational change data, children were interviewed to gather data on whether or not they distinguished between two domains: natural kinds and human artifacts. Analysis of the representational change data revealed a significant main effect for age. Post-hoc analysis pointed to a significant difference between the ages of three and four, three and five, but not four and five. No other results were significant. On the domain question significant effects were noted for domain and for age. Post-hoc analysis for domain revealed that children answered the domain question correctly more often for natural kinds than for human artifacts. The post-hoc analysis for age showed significant differences between three and four, three and five, but not between four and five. The results suggest that four and five-year-olds perform significantly better than three-year-olds on representational change tasks, regardless of domain. However, there is evidence that at least four and five-year-olds do have some knowledge of human artifacts and natural kinds, though this knowledge is of little value in the successful completion of the representational change tasks.

description: Physicists have speculated about the properties of the quantum vacuum for at least 85 years; however, only recently have they understood the quantum vacuum sufficiently well to begin making testable predictions. Specifically, using Maxwell's equations to describe the interaction of the electromagnetic field with charged lepton - antilepton vacuum fluctuations, it has been possible to calculate the permittivity of the vacuum, the speed of light in the vacuum, and the fine structure constant. Physicists are now also beginning to successfully address problems in cosmology based on properties of the quantum vacuum. The terms ``vacuum catastrophe'' and ``old cosmological problem'' refer, respectively, to the predictions that the vacuum energy density and the cosmological constant are both approximately 120 orders of magnitude larger than the observed values. Using properties of the quantum vacuum and well-established physics, it is possible to demonstrate that the huge vacuum energy cannot transfer energy to normal matter; accordingly, vacuum energy contributes neither to the observed energy density of the universe nor to the cosmological constant, which plays a central role in the accelerating expansion of the universe.

A linear reformulation of the Kuramoto model of self-synchronizing oscillators

description: The present paper introduces a linear reformulation of the Kuramoto model describing a self-synchronizing phase transition in a system of globally coupled oscillators that in general have different characteristic frequencies. The reformulated model provides an alternative coherent framework through which one can analytically tackle synchronization problems that are not amenable to the original Kuramoto analysis. It allows one to solve explicitly for the synchronization order parameter and the critical point of 1) the full phase-locking transition for a system with a finite number of oscillators (unlike the original Kuramoto model, which is solvable implicitly only in the mean-field limit) and 2) a new class of continuum systems. It also makes it possible to probe the system's dynamics as it moves towards a steady state. While discussion in this paper is restricted to systems with global coupling, the new formalism introduced by the linear reformulation also lends itself to solving systems that exhibit local or asymmetric coupling.

No Brasil, variações entre planejamento e execução do orçamento de grande parte dos municípios são expressivas e podem comprometer a efetivação das políticas públicas. Assim, este estudo teve por objetivo verificar, sob a ótica de atores envolvidos no processo orçamentário municipal, causas das variações existentes entre planejamento e execução. Para tal, foi realizado um estudo multicasos em sete municípios pernambucanos, por meio de levantamento e análise de conteúdo de entrevistas feitas com quinze participantes, elaboradores e/ou executores do processo orçamentário. Várias causas provocam variações na execução orçamentária, segundo os entrevistados. É importante melhoria no processo, principalmente relativa a problemas internos, sobre os quais o poder público municipal tem maior gerência. Causas externas, apesar de ocorrerem independentemente da ação dos gestores, podem ser minimizadas com o aprimoramento do processo. A integração entre gestão municipal e representação social pode ser elemento chave para construção de orçamentos que atendam efetivamente as reais necessidades da população. Mudanças no orçamento sempre serão necessárias, desde que ocorram para atender demandas imprescindíveis e não para servir ao oportunismo político. Acredita-se que elaboradores de orçamentos municipais podem utilizar-se dos resultados encontrados, utilizando-os na elaboração de orçamentos que traduzam melhor a realidade dos municípios e não demandem alterações substanciais durante sua execução, por meio da abertura de créditos adicionais, transposições, remanejamentos e transferências. As causas das variações orçamentárias apresentadas e sugestões apontadas, se previamente observadas, podem auxiliar na elaboração de orçamentos mais reais e credíveis.

The effects of an intervention using a precision teaching model on grade four students' arithmetic self-concept
Creators: name: Tobin, Moira
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The development of a positive academic self-concept has been a professed objective of almost all educational programs from kindergarten to high school. However, there exist few experimentally researched, theory-based interventions which address the problem of low academic self-concept. The present research sought to utilize the multifaceted and hierarchical theory of self-concept as proposed by Shavelson, Huber and Stanton (1976) to design an intervention aimed at enhancing academic self-concept. Specifically, the study was designed to apply a Precision Teaching intervention to the specific facet of multiplication in arithmetic. The effects of this intervention were subsequently measured at the level of arithmetic self-concept and academic self-concept. Differences between males and females on arithmetic self-concept were also examined before and after the intervention. The study involved 185 grade four students of approximately nine years of age. Academic self-concept and arithmetic self-concept were measured by the Student's Perception of Ability Scale. A 2x4, gender by groups, factorial analysis of variance design was used to investigate the effects of the intervention. Given that the study utilized intact preselected classroom groups, the design was quasi-experimental. The data indicated that the Precision Teaching intervention had a significant impact on enhancing the arithmetic self-concept of the experimental groups. Also, there were no significant differences between males and females at the grade four level in arithmetic self-concept. On a theoretical level, the findings of the study seem to support the multifaceted and hierarchical nature of self-concept. At a practical level, the results of the study support Precision Teaching as an educational practice that positively influences student's academic self-concept. As there has only been a small amount of research done to examine techniques for developing positive attitudes and modifying negative attitudes toward different subjects, it was concluded that further studies were necessary to examine and replicate the findings using other facets of academic self-concept. Similarly, there exists a need for studies extending over longer periods of time to examine the durability of academic self-concept change.

description: The rheological properties of cells and tissues are central to embryonic development and homoeostasis in adult tissues and organs and are closely related to their physiological activities. In this work, we present our study of rheological experiments on cell monolayer under serum starvation compared to that of healthy cell monolayer with full serum. The normal functioning of cells depends on the micronutrient supply provided by the serum in the growth media. Serum starvation is one of the most widely used procedures in cell biology. Serum deficiency may lead to genomic instability, variation in protein expression, chronic diseases, and some specific types of cancers. However, the effect of deprivation of serum concentration on the material properties of cells is still unknown. Therefore, we performed the macro-rheology experiments to investigate the effect of serum starvation on a fully confluent Madin Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cell monolayer. The material properties such as storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G''), of the monolayer, were measured using oscillatory shear experiments under serum-free (0% FBS) and full serum (10% FBS) conditions. Additionally, the step strain experiments were performed to gain more insights into the viscoelastic properties of the cell monolayer. Our results indicate that without serum, the loss and storage moduli decrease and do not recover fully even after small deformation. This is because of the lack of nutrients, which may result in many permanent physiological changes. Whereas, the healthy cell monolayer under full serum condition, remains strong & flexible, and can fully recover even from a large deformation at higher strain.

GG-09: Multilayer Perceptron-based Array Reader Optimization for Ultra-high Density Magnetic Recording
Creators: Chanon Warisarn
Publisher: name: IEEE
Year: 2023

Magnetic Recording
To support the exponential growth of data storage demand, bit-patterned magnetic recording (BPMR) [1] has been presented as a new alternated recording technology using the patterned isolated magnetic islands in place of granular media. The signal-to-noise ratio can be gained, so an areal density (AD) can be also increased up to 4.0 Tb/in2. To reach the expected AD; however, the distance between bit-island must be shrunk closer to each neighboring island, which means two-dimensional (2D) interference and media noise will be also dramatically increased. Therefore, both 2D modulation encoding techniques [2-4] and deep neural networks [4-5] were wildly utilized to cope with those problems under the multi-reader systems [6]. we first propose to use the multilayer perceptron (MLP) for refining the soft information under the rate-5/6 2D modulation coded three-track/three-head BPMR systems as illustrated in Fig. 1, which has been continuously developed from prior soft-information flipper based on long-short term memory (LSTM) networks [4]. The data patterns and input numbers of the soft information are carefully investigated. Moreover, to cope with the codeword border effect, we also propose the MLP-based array reader optimization method. Among all three coded tracks, the upper- and lower-most tracks are still suffered from neighboring track interference; therefore, we present the suitable reader positions of three readers in three cases as shown in Fig. 1. The moving distance is considered in the percentage of the track pitch. Then, their readback signals are sent to the read channel for processing. As shown in Fig. 2, the proposed MLP soft information flipper can provide better recording performance in terms of bit-error rate (BER), which can gain 1.5 dB at BER = 10-4 over the LSTM soft information flipper [4]. Moreover, results also show that an appropriate position of an array reader can significantly yield better BER performance utilizing the MLP-based array reader optimization method.References: [1] B.

description: Despite the fact that different particle species can diffuse with respect to each other in neutron star (NS) cores, the effect of particle diffusion on various phenomena associated with NS oscillations is usually ignored. Here we demonstrate that the diffusion can be extremely powerful dissipative mechanism in superconducting NSs. In particular, it can be much more efficient than the shear and bulk viscosities. This result has important implications for the damping times of NS oscillations, development and saturation of dynamical instabilities in NSs, and for the excitation and coupling of oscillation modes during the late inspiral of binary NSs.

description: We present high angular resolution 1.3 mm continuum, methyl cyanide molecular line, and 7 mm continuum observations made with the Submillimeter Array and the Very Large Array, toward the most highly obscured and southern part of the massive star forming region OMC1S located behind the Orion Nebula. We find two flattened and rotating molecular structures with sizes of a few hundred astronomical units suggestive of circumbinary molecular rings produced by the presence of two stars with very compact circumstellar disks with sizes and separations of about 50 AU, associated with the young stellar objects 139-409 and 134-411. Furthermore, these two circumbinary rotating rings are related to two compact and bright {\it hot molecular cores}. The dynamic mass of the binary systems obtained from our data are $\geq$ 4 M$_\odot$ for 139-409 and $\geq$ 0.5 M$_\odot$ for 134-411. This result supports the idea that intermediate-mass stars will form through {\it circumstellar disks} and jets/outflows, as the low mass stars do. Furthermore, when intermediate-mass stars are in multiple systems they seem to form a circumbinary ring similar to those seen in young, multiple low-mass systems (e.g., GG Tau and UY Aur).

description: In May 2020, for the first time in its history, the Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) of Germany declared Union acts as being ultra vires. According to the FCC, the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) had acted beyond their mandates because they did not apply strong proportionality standards to the ECB’s Public Sector Purchase Programme (PSPP). The resulting stalemate within constitutional pluralism has revived the discussions about loyalism within constitutional pluralism and about the possible introduction of an appeal court with the “final say” over constitutional conflict. This Article shows that, contrary to the assessment of some critics, the controversial ruling of the Federal Constitutional Court was within the bounds of loyal behavior within constitutional pluralism. As the analysis of the PSPP conflict also shows, a European super-judicial authority would reach its limits the more we move from the surface to the core of the struggles between European and national constitutional law. The different readings of proportionality are difficult to bridge, and the mutually exclusive claims about the nature of the supremacy of European law are not accessible to compromise at all. We should therefore not expect too much from an appeal court, if it were introduced.

description: Recent experimental studies indicate that synaptic changes induced by neuronal activity are discrete jumps between a small number of stable states. Learning in systems with discrete synapses is known to be a computationally hard problem. Here, we study a neurobiologically plausible on-line learning algorithm that derives from Belief Propagation algorithms. We show that it performs remarkably well in a model neuron with binary synapses, and a finite number of `hidden' states per synapse, that has to learn a random classification task. Such system is able to learn a number of associations close to the theoretical limit, in time which is sublinear in system size. This is to our knowledge the first on-line algorithm that is able to achieve efficiently a finite number of patterns learned per binary synapse. Furthermore, we show that performance is optimal for a finite number of hidden states which becomes very small for sparse coding. The algorithm is similar to the standard `perceptron' learning algorithm, with an additional rule for synaptic transitions which occur only if a currently presented pattern is `barely correct'. In this case, the synaptic changes are meta-plastic only (change in hidden states and not in actual synaptic state), stabilizing the synapse in its current state. Finally, we show that a system with two visible states and K hidden states is much more robust to noise than a system with K visible states. We suggest this rule is sufficiently simple to be easily implemented by neurobiological systems or in hardware.

Konfliktscheu und beredtes Schweigen: Die Kneipe als Kommunikationsraum im deutschen Kaiserreich
Creators: name: Owzar, Armin
Publisher: name: Moving the Social

description: The Wilhelmine society was hit by a huge number of social, political, religious and ethnic conflicts. How did the people deal with these conflicts in their everyday life? Describing the different segments of an urban society (especially Hamburg) and their ways of face-to-face communication in pubs the article tries to answer this question. A qualitative and a quantitative analysis of roughly 20.000 reports of investigation written by the Wilhelmine police, who over 22 years visited the pubs of Hamburg, shows that there was nearly no communication between the different segments of society. If they got into conversation, they normally did not talk about politics or anything else concerning their identiry or their beliefs. There are different causes of this behaviour: anthropological causes like fear of isolation, and political reasons caused by the 'Obrigkeitsstaat'. One of the most important causes is the variety of conflicts in Wilhelmine Germany itself. The social, religious, political and ethnic problems were increasing alarmingly, so that silence seemed to be the most appropriate and reasonable strategy of managing conflicts.
For the development of Weimar society the results turn out to be ambivalent. On the one hand this strategy of managing conflicts helped to stabilize the different 'Milieus' and, as a result, the republic of Weimar. On the other hand the same behaviour had serious consequences for the disintegration of German society and was responsible for a lack of empathy shown towards members of other 'Milieus' and 'Lager'.

description: Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has recently emerged as a new solution to enhance wireless communication performance via passive signal reflection. In this letter, we unlock the potential of IRS controller in relaying information and propose a novel IRS-assisted communication system with both IRS passive reflection and active relaying. Specifically, we jointly optimize the time allocations for decode-and-forward (DF) relaying by the IRS controller and the IRS passive beamforming to maximize the achievable rate of the proposed system. We also compare the rate performance of the proposed system with the conventional IRS without relaying, and reveal the conditions for one to outperform the other. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed new design can significantly improve the coverage/rate performance of IRS-assisted systems.
description: To increase the IRS coverage range without increasing the deployment/hardware cost, we propose a novel IRS-assisted communication system by "unlocking the IRS controller for relaying information" in addition to its conventional role of tuning the reflections of IRS elements only
Structural validity in the measurement of Holland's vocational typology : a measure of Holland's types scaled to an explicit circumplex model
Creators: name: Trapnell, Paul David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A simple principal components procedure for constructing a multi-scale test to fit a circumplex structural model was illustrated. Loevinger's concept of structural validity, which specifies that test structure should faithfully reflect postulated structure within a domain, provided a psychometric rationale for applying circumplex scale construction procedures to the domain of vocational interests: although Holland's influential theory of career choice specifies an explicit two-dimensional circumplex model to describe the relations among the primary categories of vocational interest, and despite the extensive degree of validity established for the model, no measures of those interest variables have apparently been constructed explicitly to fit a two-dimensional circumplex model. In doing so, this study also tested the hypothesis that the two dimensions accounting for the well-known hexagonal arrangement of Holland's six vocational categories are continuous and that, within the two dimensional interest space, Holland's six categories represent but six points along what is a circular continuum. This hypothesis was tested by attempting to construct evenly spaced "octant" scales to mark the two-dimensional vocational interest space defined by Holland's six Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI) scales. Circumplex analysis procedures were applied to a large pool of occupational titles which included a large subset of VPI items. Items with the best circumplex properties in this pool were assembled into a set of scales to mark ideal octant locations around the two interest dimensions. Results provided strong support for a circumplex view of the dimensions accounting for Holland's hexagon, and evidence, in a validation sample, of a remarkably good fit of the new eight scales to an ideal circumplex structure. Implications of the presents results for Holland's theory and for circumplex approaches to measurement are discussed, as well as suggested applications of this efficient 64-item circumplex measure of Holland's "big two" dimensions of interests.

description: Die Erzeugung hoher Harmonischer gehört zu den verbreitetsten Methoden für die Bereitstellung von sowohl kurzwelliger Strahlung im XUV-Bereich als auch ultrakurzen Lichtimpulsen mit Impulsdauern von einigen Attosekunden. Aufgrund der geringen Effektivität des Erzeugungsprozesses reicht der Photonenfluss im Feld der Harmonischen jedoch für viele potentielle Anwendungen nicht aus. In dieser Arbeit wird eine Methode vorgestellt, die Effektivität des Erzeugungsprozesses möglichst weit zu steigern. Sie basiert auf der Quasiphasenanpassung der erzeugen Felder in einem räumlich strukturierten Aluminiumplasma. Es konnten bis zu vier voneinander getrennte Konversionszonen eingesetzt werden, die zu einer maximal möglichen Verstärkung der Strahlungsleistung um einen Faktor von 16 gegenüber einer einzelnen Konversionszone geführt haben. Bei einer korrekten Dimensionierung der Länge der Konversionszonen und deren gegenseitiger Abstände treten dabei keine Leistungseinbrüche im Inneren der Konversionszonen auf.

description: We report Spitzer Space Telescope photometry of eleven externally-polluted white dwarfs. Of the nine stars for which we have IRAC photometry, we find that GD 40, GD 133 and PG 1015+161 each has an infrared excess that can be understood as arising from a flat, opaque, dusty disk. GD 56 also has an infrared excess characteristic of circumstellar dust, but a flat-disk model cannot reproduce the data unless there are grains as warm as 1700 K and perhaps not even then. Our data support the previous suggestion that the metals in the atmosphere of GD 40 are the result of accretion of a tidally-disrupted asteroid with a chondritic composition.
