Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Aligned with 5G vision for a fully mobile and connected society, Terahertz (THz) wireless communication is envisioned as a key technology to fulfill the future demands for ultra-broad bandwidth, high-capacity, reliable and ubiquitous wireless systems, beyond 5G. TERAWAY is an H2020 5G-PPP Phase III project, aiming to develop a new generation of THz transceivers that will enable to overcome current limitations of THz technology and challenge its commercial uptake and industrialization in the B5G era. Leveraging optical concepts and photonic integration techniques, will develop a common technology base for the generation, emission and detection of wireless signals with selectable symbol rate and bandwidth up to 25.92 GHz within an ultra-wide range of carrier frequencies covering the W-band (92-114.5 GHz), D-band (130-174.8 GHz) and THz band (252-322 GHz).

description: We study the orbital phase-space of dark matter (DM) halos in the AURIGA suite of cosmological hydrodynamics simulations of Milky Way analogues. We characterise halos by their spherical action distribution, a function of the specific angular momentum, and the radial action, of the DM particles. By comparing DM-only and hydrodynamical simulations of the same halos, we investigate the contraction of DM halos caused by the accumulation of baryons at the centre. We find a small systematic suppression of the radial action in the DM halos of the hydrodynamical simulations, suggesting that the commonly used adiabatic contraction approximation can result in an underestimate of the density by ~ 8%. We apply an iterative algorithm to contract the AURIGA DM halos given a baryon density profile and halo mass, recovering the true contracted DM profiles with an accuracy of ~15%, that reflects halo-to-halo variation. Using this algorithm, we infer the total mass profile of the Milky Way's contracted DM halo. We derive updated values for the key astrophysical inputs to DM direct detection experiments: the DM density and velocity distribution in the Solar neighbourhood.

description: Using a panel dataset from Zhejiang province in China over the period 1995-2002, we propose a two-step estimation procedure to investigate the links between land lease activity and production efficiency. We find that the output elasticity with respect to land, the scale effect and the technical efficiency are higher for farmers involved in land-lease activities. In addition, technical efficiency and land-lease activity are endogenous, and farmers with higher technical efficiency are more likely to lease more land and adopt advanced technologies to achieve higher profits, which in turn alters the technical efficiency.

description: The high kinetic energy electrons that populate the Earth's radiation belts emit synchrotron emissions because of their interaction with the planetary magnetic field. A lunar near side array would be uniquely positioned to image this emission and provide a near real time measure of how the Earth's radiation belts are responding to the current solar input. The Salammbo code is a physical model of the dynamics of the three-dimensional phase-space electron densities in the radiation belts, allowing the prediction of 1 keV to 100 MeV electron distributions trapped in the belts. This information is put into a synchrotron emission simulator which provides the brightness distribution of the emission up to 1 MHz from a given observation point. Using Digital Elevation Models from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) data, we select a set of locations near the Lunar sub-Earth point with minimum elevation variation over various sized patches where we simulate radio receivers to create a synthetic aperture. We consider all realistic noise sources in the low frequency regime. We then use a custom CASA code to image and process the data from our defined array, using SPICE to align the lunar coordinates with the Earth. We find that for a moderate lunar surface electron density of 250/cm^3, the radiation belts may be detected every 12-24 hours with a 16384 element array over a 10 km diameter circle. Changing electron density can make measurements 10x faster at lunar night, and 10x slower at lunar noon.

description: This paper examines the influence of banks’ corporate social responsibility on consumer behavior in the Kingdom of Bahrain’s banking sector. Understanding this topic is important because it provides insights into how banks' corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts can influence consumer behavior and perceptions in the banking sector. As the banking industry plays a crucial role in the economic development of the Kingdom of Bahrain, understanding the influence of banks' CSR initiatives on consumer attitudes and preferences can help banks develop more effective strategies to meet the evolving expectations of their customers. This knowledge can ultimately contribute to the overall sustainability and competitiveness of the Bahraini banking sector. The primary quantitative method of research is performed throughout the study and the pilot study is also conducted for ensuring the validity of the questions. This study employed 385 quantitative questionnaires on 385 customers from the financial sector in Bahrain. The results show that Bahraini consumers prioritize banks that are performing CSR initiatives and maintaining transparency in reporting their sustainability efforts, reflecting their strong concern for the country's sustainability. The findings of the study also summarize that stakeholder engagement and CSR practices are recommended to the Bahraini banks through which they can positively influence the purchasing behavior of the consumers in the market.

description: Poverty remains to be the highest in agricultural areas in the Philippines. To alleviate this problem, capital empowerment through microfinancing was among the government’s program in the rural areas including the municipality of San Francisco, Agusan del Sur. A total of 95 rice farmers with a 10% margin of error were interviewed to draw conclusions on the impact of microfinancing to farm productivity. Econometric modeling was employed. The production data were fitted using five standard production functions namely; (1) neoclassical, (2) neoclassical with interaction, (3) Cobb-Douglas like, (4) Transcendental and the (5) modified transcendental models. Transcendental function best fits the data with Microfinancing significantly improving farm productivity by 39%. Despite this positive impact, only 34% of these farmers were availing from formal institutions and only 18% took advantage during the last cropping. Nonetheless, it is highly recommended to strengthen the microfinance program in the Philippines by offering extension works on the benefit of Microfinancing, offering less stringent application procedure, and ensuring agricultural credits are used for its purpose, thus, improving the plight of the rural farmers.

description: The background field method (BFM) for the Poisson Sigma Model (PSM) is studied as an example of the application of the BFM technique to open gauge algebras. The relationship with Seiberg-Witten maps arising in non-commutative gauge theories is clarified. It is shown that the implementation of the BFM for the PSM in the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism is equivalent to the solution of a generalized linearization problem (in the formal sense) for Poisson structures in the presence of gauge fields. Sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution and a constructive method to derive it are presented.

description: We discuss the construction of the most general CP-violating chiral Lagrangian for an axion-like particle (ALP). Starting with an effective Lagrangian containing light quarks and gluons, we provide its matching onto a chiral effective Lagrangian at $\mathcal{O}(p^2)$ described in terms of mesons and baryons, identifying the correspondence between the Jarlskog invariants of the two theories. After deriving the ALP interactions with mesons and baryons, we analyse a few relevant phenomenological implications such as the permanent electric dipole moments of nucleons and the CP-violating ALP and kaon decays.This work provides the necessary tools for further phenomenological analyses connecting low-energy observables with the couplings of the underlying ultraviolet complete theory.

description: The study analysed the level of income among women cassava entrepreneurs in Southwest Nigeria, using Ogun and Ondo State as the focal study areas. Primary data were obtained through structured questionnaire from 300 women cassava farmers selected through multistage sampling technique. Descriptive statistics and Quantile Regression (QR) analysis were used to analyse the primary data obtained from the field. Results revealed that respondents had a mean age of 47.4 years old while 82.0% had at least primary school education. Also, 85.3% were married with a mean household size and farming experience of 5 persons 15.4years respectively, as well as mean farm size of 1.4ha and mean annual income (from cassava production) of ₦143, 602.00. The QR model results revealed that educational status (p<0.05), access to farmland (p<0.05) and labour cost (p<0.05) were the major factors that affected the income level of respondents in q25 category. While the major factors affecting income level of respondents in the q50 category were educational status (p<0.05), number of extension visits (p<0.05) and labour cost (p<0.05). Also, amount of credit obtained (p<0.05), number of extension visits (p<0.05) and farming experience (p<0.05) and access to land (p<0.10) were the major factors that affected the income levels of q50 category of respondents. The study recommended that improved income earnings would be enhanced among the women cassava entrepreneurs if the state governments introduce scheme that improves land ownership (among other factors) to encourage more women to have access to large cultivable land.
Unbiased Cosmology Inference from Biased Tracers using the EFT Likelihood

description: We present updates on the cosmology inference using the effective field theory (EFT) likelihood presented previously in Schmidt et al., 2018, Elsner et al., 2019 [1,2]. Specifically, we add a cutoff to the initial conditions that serve as starting point for the matter forward model. We show that this cutoff, which was not employed in any previous related work, is important to regularize loop integrals that otherwise involve small-scale, non-perturbative modes. We then present results on the inferred value of the linear power spectrum normalization $σ_{8}$ from rest-frame halo catalogs using both second- and third-order bias expansions, imposing uniform priors on all bias parameters. Due to the perfect bias-$σ_{8}$ degeneracy at linear order, constraints on $σ_{8}$ rely entirely on nonlinear information. The results show the expected convergence behavior when lowering the cutoff in wavenumber, $Λ$. When including modes up to $k \leq Λ= 0.1\,h\,{\rm Mpc}^{-1}$ in the second-order case, $σ_{8}$ is recovered to within $\lesssim 6\,\%$ for a range of halo masses and redshifts. The systematic bias shrinks to $4\,\%$ or less for the third-order bias expansion on the same range of scales. Together with additional evidence we provide, this shows that the residual mismatch in $σ_{8}$ can be attributed to higher-order bias contributions. We conclude that the EFT likelihood is able to infer unbiased cosmological constraints, within expected theoretical systematic errors, from physical biased tracers on quasilinear scales

description: Label ranking is a prediction task which deals with learning a mapping between an instance and a ranking (i.e., order) of labels from a finite set, representing their relevance to the instance. Boosting is a well-known and reliable ensemble technique that was shown to often outperform other learning algorithms. While boosting algorithms were developed for a multitude of machine learning tasks, label ranking tasks were overlooked. In this paper, we propose a boosting algorithm which was specifically designed for label ranking tasks. Extensive evaluation of the proposed algorithm on 24 semi-synthetic and real-world label ranking datasets shows that it significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art label ranking algorithms.
Bringing data to the DANCE: Implementing a data acquisition model at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago
Creators: name: Obst, Jim
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2014

description: In August of 2011, Federal Reserve's librarians were asked to come together to manage purchased data acquisitions. The new initiative required one librarian from each of the 12 Reserve Banks and one from the Board of Governors to implement a common process for data procurement. It also formalized the use of a common data catalog. The overall goal was to avoid unnecessary duplication and leverage purchasing power as whole. In response to the mandate, the managing librarians of the Federal Reserve System formed a new, collaborative data work group made up of their 13 chosen data librarians. Together the group created and implemented innovative system-wide policies and workflows, including a unique online catalog. Each individual data librarian was in turn responsible for initiating new policies and workflows for the data management process within their own Reserve Bank. In the Chicago Fed, implementation of the new data acquisition regime has been successful, with variations on its implementation like a District Data Management Group and educational initiatives about data use and procurement protocols. In the first two years, the need for collaborative tools have given way to workflows in SharePoint. Other solutions are planned.

description: Recently Hollands, Wald and Zhang proposed a new formula for the entropy of a dynamical black hole for an arbitrary theory of gravity obtained from a diffeomorphism covariant Lagrangian via the Noether charge method. We present an alternative, pedagogical derivation of the dynamical black hole entropy for $f(R)$ gravity as well as canonical scalar-tensor theory by means of conformal transformations. First, in general relativity we generalize Visser and Yan's pedagogical proof of the non-stationary physical process first law to black holes that may not be in vacuum, and give a pedagogical derivation of the second-order behavior of the dynamical black hole entropy for vacuum perturbations by considering the second-order variation of the Raychaudhuri equation. Second, we apply the derivation for general relativity to theories in the Einstein frames, and then recast the conclusions in their original frames. We show that the dynamical black hole entropy formulae of these theories satisfy both the non-stationary physical process first law and the non-stationary comparison first law via the Einstein frame. We further study the second-order behavior of the dynamical black hole entropy for vacuum perturbations, and observe that the second law is obeyed at second order in those theories. Using the Einstein frame, we also determine the relationship between the dynamical black hole entropy and the Wald entropy of the generalized apparent horizon in the original frame.

description: We give a combinatorial equivalent to the existence of a non-free hereditarily separable group of cardinality aleph_1. This can be used, together with a known combinatorial equivalent of the existence of a non-free Whitehead group, to prove that it is consistent that every Whitehead group is free but not every hereditarily separable group is free. We also show that the fact that Z is a p.i.d. with infinitely many primes is essential for this result.

description: In a galactic halo like the Milky Way, bosonic dark matter particles lighter than about $30$ eV have a de Broglie wavelength larger than the average inter-particle separation and are therefore well described as a set of classical waves. This applies to, for instance, the QCD axion as well as to lighter axion-like particles such as fuzzy dark matter. We show that the interference of waves inside a halo inevitably leads to vortices, locations where chance destructive interference takes the density to zero. The phase of the wavefunction has non-trivial winding around these points. This can be interpreted as a non-zero velocity circulation, so that vortices are sites where the fluid velocity has a non-vanishing curl. Using analytic arguments and numerical simulations, we study the properties of vortices and show they have a number of universal features: (1) In three spatial dimensions, the generic defects take the form of vortex rings. (2) On average there is about one vortex ring per de Broglie volume and (3) generically only single winding ($\pm 1$) vortices are found in a realistic halo. (4) The density near a vortex scales as $r^2$ while the velocity goes as $1/r$, where $r$ is the distance to vortex. (5) A vortex segment moves at a velocity inversely proportional to its curvature scale so that smaller vortex rings move faster, allowing momentary motion exceeding escape velocity. We discuss observational/experimental signatures from vortices and, more broadly, wave interference. In the ultra-light regime, gravitational lensing by interference substructures leads to flux anomalies of $5-10 \%$ in strongly lensed systems. For QCD axions, vortices lead to a diminished signal in some detection experiments but not in others. We advocate the measurement of correlation functions by axion detection experiments as a way to probe and capitalize on the expected interference substructures.

description: Since its serendipitous discovery in 1896 by Henry Becquerel, radioactivity has called the attention of both the scientific community and the broad audience due to its intriguing nature, its multiple applications and its controversial uses. For this reason, the teaching of the phenomenon is considered a key ingredient in the path towards developing critical-thinking skills in many secondary science education curricula. Despite being one of the basic concepts in general physics courses, the scientific teaching literature of the last 40 years reports a great deal of misconceptions and conceptual errors related to radioactivity that seemingly appear regardless of the context. This study explores, for the first time, the knowledge status on the topic on a sample of N=191 secondary school students and Y=29 Physics-and-Chemistry trainee teachers in the Spanish region of Valencia. To this aim, a revised version of a diagnostic tool developed by Martins \cite{Mar92} has been employed. In general, the results reveal an evolution from a widespread dissenting notion on the phenomenon, which is staunchly related to danger, hazard and destruction in the lowest educational levels, towards a more rational, relative and multidimensional perspective in the highest ones. Furthermore, the great overlap of the ideas, emotions and attitudes of the inquired individuals with the main misconceptions and conceptual mistakes reported in the literature for different educational contexts unveils the urgent need to develop new teaching strategies leading to a meaningful learning of the associated nuclear science concepts.

description: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication that occurs following allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for the treatment of haematological cancers and other blood-related disorders. GVHD is an inflammatory disorder, where the transplanted donor immune cells can mediate an immune response against the recipient and attack host tissues. Despite over 60 years of research, broad-range immune suppression is still used to prevent or treat GVHD, leading to an increased risk of cancer relapse and infection. Therefore, further insights into the disease mechanisms and development of predictive and prognostic biomarkers are key to improving outcomes and reducing GVHD development following allogeneic HSCT. An important preclinical tool to examine the pathophysiology of GVHD and to understand the key mechanisms that lead to GVHD development are preclinical humanised mouse models. Such models of GVHD are now well-established and can provide valuable insights into disease development. This review will focus on models where human peripheral blood mononuclear cells are injected into immune-deficient non-obese diabetic (NOD)-scid-interleukin-2(IL-2)Rγ mutant (NOD-scid-IL2Rγnull) mice. Humanised mouse models of GVHD can mimic the clinical setting for GVHD development, with disease progression and tissues impacted like that observed in humans. This review will highlight key findings from preclinical humanised mouse models regarding the role of donor human immune cells, the function of cytokines and cell signalling molecules and their impact on specific target tissues and GVHD development. Further, specific therapeutic strategies tested in these preclinical models reveal key molecular pathways important in reducing the burden of GVHD following allogeneic HSCT.

description: We have reexamined the problem of $n-\bar n$ oscillations for ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) confined within a trap. It is shown that for up to $10^3$ collisions with the walls the process can be described in terms of wave packets. The exact equation is derived describing the time-evolution of the $\bar n$-component for an arbitrary number of collisions with the trap walls. The $\bar n$-component grows linearly with time with enhancement factor depending on the reflection properties of the walls.

What is the social and academic experience of an ELL student in Home Economics course? 2. What can teachers do to help ELL students feel welcome, and be successful in Home Economics courses? This paper outlines the steps of the research process, findings from the research and reflection on my experience as a novice researcher and grad student in the HEEL program.
Unexpected hole doping of graphene by osmium adatoms

description: The electronic transport of monolayer graphene devices is studied before and after \emph{in situ} deposition of a sub-monolayer coating of osmium adatoms. Unexpectedly, and unlike all other metallic adatoms studied to date, osmium adatoms shift the charge neutrality point to more positive gate voltages. This indicates that osmium adatoms act as electron acceptors and thus leave the graphene hole-doped. Analysis of transport data suggest that Os adatoms behave as charged impurity scatterers, albeit with a surprisingly low charge-doping efficiency. The charge neutrality point of graphene is found to vary non-monotonically with gate voltage as the sample is warmed to room temperature, suggesting that osmium diffuses on the surface but is not completely removed.

Exploring how to raise awareness of a data service through academic libraries in the UK
Creators: name: Ceraolo, Margherita
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2014

description: The UK Data Service, as part of its marketing strategy, is investigating how to raise awareness through academic libraries. This research, conducted by an intern, takes the form of a case study exploring how to embed the UK Data Service within four UK academic libraries. The institutions were selected based on data usage and the methodology qualitative – the data is collected through semi-structured interviews. Background information gathered about libraries' structures and strategies suggests that the effect of expense justification on the support of data providers by libraries poses challenges to free-at-the-point-of-use (free) data services. In other words it could result in less focus on support in the form of training through tutorials or focus groups. The following question arises: are 'free' services less supported by libraries than those that require fees because of the need to justify membership expenditures? This presentation explores how data services can improve interactions with academic libraries in the UK. By closely examining the strategy of four UK universities, it sheds light on the challenges in raising awareness of a data provider like the UK Data Service through collaborating with libraries. It aims to discover whether the study's findings can be applied to other institutions.

description: For full-body wireless power transfer (WPT), a liquid metal (LM)-based meandered textile coil has been proposed. Multiple rigid capacitors must be inserted in a long coil for efficiency; however, the conventional adhesive jointing suffers from the fragile connection between a rubber tube filled with LM and the capacitor due to the poor adhesion of the rubbers. This paper presents a friction-based jointing, which covers the capacitor with a rigid capsule to enhance the frictional force between the tube and capsule. By experimentally optimizing the capsule design, the LM coil with capacitors showed 3.1 times higher stretch tolerance (31.8 N) and 3.5 times higher bending tolerance (25.9 N) than the adhesive jointing. Moreover, the WPT garment prototype shows excellent mechanical durability against repeated stretching and washing over 100 times. Our full-body meandered textile coil can enable wireless charging to wearable devices around the body for long-term continuous healthcare monitoring, activity recognition, and AR/VR.
