description:
At the request of the Granville-Vance County Commissioners, a project team was formed to address Social and Community Context, a Social Determinant of Health (SDOH). The team aimed to improve community and social support for Black and Hispanic youth in Granville and Vance Counties who have experienced Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). The proposal includes an SDOH analysis, contextual analysis, and recommendations for enhancing support. ACEs, which include abuse, neglect, and aspects of household dysfunction, are linked to long-term health issues like depression, anxiety, and chronic diseases. The 2021 Community Health Assessment highlighted the need for recreational activities and mental health support. Recommendations include implementing the Notice.Talk.Act program in schools, forming a Community Collaborative Council (CCC) using Experience-Based Co-Design (EBCD), and addressing systemic issues like poverty and limited mental health services. These initiatives aim to provide comprehensive support and improve health outcomes for at-risk youth.

description: This paper develops and investigates a dual unscented Kalman filter (DUKF) for the joint nonlinear state and parameter identification of commercial adaptive cruise control (ACC) systems. Although the core functionality of stock ACC systems, including their proprietary control logic and parameters, is not publicly available, this work considers a car-following scenario with a human-driven vehicle (leader) and an ACC engaged ego vehicle (follower) that employs a constant time-headway policy (CTHP). The objective of the DUKF is to determine the CTHP parameters of the ACC by using real-time observations of space-gap and relative velocity from the vehicle's onboard sensors. Real-time parameter identification of stock ACC systems is essential for assessing their string stability, large-scale deployment on motorways, and impact on traffic flow and throughput. In this regard, $L_2$ and $L_\infty$ string stability conditions are considered. The observability rank condition for nonlinear systems is adopted to evaluate the ability of the proposed estimation scheme to estimate stock ACC system parameters using empirical data. The proposed filter is evaluated using empirical data collected from the onboard sensors of two 2019 SUV vehicles, namely Hyundai Nexo and SsangYong Rexton, equipped with stock ACC systems; and is compared with batch and recursive least-squares optimization. The set of ACC model parameters obtained from the proposed filter revealed that the commercially implemented ACC system of the considered vehicle (Hyundai Nexo) is neither $L_2$ nor $L_\infty$ string stable.

Intrinsic VHE Gamma-ray spectra of Blazars as a probe for Extragalactic Background Light

description: Very high energy (VHE) $γ$-rays above 10$'$s of GeV energy, emitted from distant blazars, are attenuated by photons from the extragalactic background light (EBL). Unfortunately, neither the EBL nor the intrinsic blazar spectrum is accurately known to derive one quantity from the other. In this work we use a homogeneous one zone model involving synchrotron, synchrotron self Compton (SSC) and external Compton (EC) emission mechanisms to estimate the intrinsic VHE spectra of blazars. The model is applied on three VHE blazars, namely PKS2155-304, RGB J0710+591 and 3C279, for which simultaneous multi-wavelength data are available from various observations. The predicted values of the intrinsic VHE fluxes are then compared with the observations by imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes to determine the optical depth of VHE $γ$-rays. On comparing these optical depth values with those predicted by four different EBL models, we observe a somewhat pronounced systematic deviation for PKS2155-304 and 3C279 at higher energies, especially for the EBL model proposed by Finke et al.(2010). We attribute this deviation to be an outcome of either the failure of the extrapolation of blazar SED to VHE energies and/or due to various assumptions buried in the EBL models.

description: Presentation at the Brookings Institution Replicability is at the core of the scientific enterprise. In the past 30 years, recurring concerns about the extent of replicability (or lack thereof) of the research in various disciplines have surfaced, including in economics. Dr Vilhuber will convey to participants practical recommendations for creating reproducible research, as a researcher, as a journal editor, and from an institutional perspective. The solutions to these problems will change the way research will be taught and conducted, in economics in particular, and in the social sciences more broadly. The implications affect undergraduate and graduate teaching, research infrastructure, and habits.

description: We present global hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations with mesh refinement of accreting planets embedded in protoplanetary disks (PPDs). The magnetized disk includes Ohmic resistivity that depends on the overlying mass column, leading to turbulent surface layers and a dead zone near the midplane. The main results are: (i) The accretion flow in the Hill sphere is intrinsically 3D for hydrodynamic and MHD models. Net inflow toward the planet is dominated by high latitude flows. A circumplanetary disk (CPD) forms. Its midplane flows outward in a pattern whose details differ between models. (ii) Gap opening magnetically couples and ignites the dead zone near the planet, leading to stochastic accretion, a quasi-turbulent flow in the Hill sphere and a CPD whose structure displays high levels of variability. (iii) Advection of magnetized gas onto the rotating CPD generates helical fields that launch magnetocentrifugally driven outflows. During one specific epoch a highly collimated, one-sided jet is observed. (iv) The CPD's surface density $\sim30{\rm\,g\,cm^{-2}}$, small enough for significant ionization and turbulence to develop. (v) The accretion rate onto the planet in the MHD simulation reaches a steady value $8 \times 10^{-3} {\rm M_\oplus yr^{-1}}$, and is similar in the viscous hydrodynamic runs. Our results suggest that gas accretion onto a forming giant planet within a magnetized PPD with dead zone allows rapid growth from Saturnian to Jovian masses. As well as being relevant for giant planet formation, these results have important implications for the formation of regular satellites around gas giant planets.

description: Size- and shape- dependent unique properties of the metal halide perovskite nanocrystals make them promising building blocks for constructing various electronic and optoelectronic devices. These unique properties together with their easy colloidal synthesis render them efficient nanoscale functional components for multiple applications ranging from light emission devices to energy conversion and storage devices. Recently, two-dimensional (2D) metal halide perovskites in the form of nanosheets (NSs) or nanoplatelets (NPls) are being intensively studied due to their promising 2D geometry which is more compatible with the conventional electronic and optoelectronic device structures where film-like components are employed. In particular, 2D perovskites exhibit unique thickness-dependent properties due to the strong quantum confinement effect, while enabling the bandgap tuning in a wide spectral range. In this review the synthesis procedures of 2D perovskite nanostructures will be summarized, while the application-related properties together with the corresponding applications will be extensively discussed. In addition, perovskite nanocrystals/2D material heterostructures will be reviewed in detail. Finally, the wide application range of the 2D perovskite-based structures developed to date, including pure perovskites and their heterostructures, will be presented while the improved synergetic properties of the multifunctional materials will be discussed in a comprehensive way.

description: The Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) team recently reported the discovery of a rapidly fading optical transient source, PTF11agg. A long-lived scintillating radio counterpart was identified, but the search for a high energy counterpart showed negative results. The PTF team speculated that PTF11agg may represent a new class of relativistic outbursts. Here we suggest that a neutron star (NS)-NS merger system with a supra-massive magnetar central engine could be a possible source to power such a transient, if our line of sight is not on the jet axis direction of the system. These systems are also top candidates for gravitational wave sources to be detected in the advanced LIGO/Virgo era. We find that the PTF11agg data could be explained well with such a model, suggesting that at least some gravitational wave bursts due to NS-NS mergers may be associated with such a bright electromagnetic counterpart without a γ-ray trigger.

description: We study the system involving mutual interaction between three qubits and an oscillator within the ultrastrong coupling regime. We apply adiabatic approximation approach to explore two extreme regimes: (i) the oscillator's frequency is far larger than each qubit's frequency and (ii) the qubit's frequency is far larger than the oscillator's frequency, and analyze the energy-level spectrum and the ground-state property of the qubit-oscillator system under the conditions of various system parameters. For the energy-level spectrum, we concentrate on studying the degeneracy in low energy levels. For the ground state, we focus on its nonclassical properties that are necessary for preparing the nonclassical states. We show that the minimum qubit-oscillator coupling strength needed for generating the nonclassical states of the Schrödinger-cat type in the oscillator is just one half of that in the Rabi model. We find that the qubit-qubit entanglement in the ground state vanishes if the qubit-oscillator coupling strength is strong enough, for which the entropy of three qubits keeps larger than one. We also observe the phase-transition-like behavior in the regime where the qubit's frequency is far larger than the oscillator's frequency.

description: The purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics of Agile development processes that impact user satisfaction. We used user reviews of OSS smartphone apps and various data from version control systems to examine the relationships, especially time-series correlations, between user satisfaction and development metrics that are expected to be related to user satisfaction. Although no metrics conclusively indicate an improved user satisfaction, motivation of the development team, the ability to set appropriate work units, the appropriateness of work rules, and the improvement of code maintainability should be considered as they are correlated with improved user satisfaction. In contrast, changes in the release frequency and workload are not correlated.

description: In this paper, we analytically compute the basic parameters of the p-wave holographic superconductors with Weyl geometrical corrections using the matching method. The explicit correspondence between the critical temperature $T_c$ and the dual charge density $ρ$ has been calculated as $T_c\proptoρ^{{1}{3}}$ and the dependence of the vacuum expectation value for the dual condensate operator $\cal{O}$ on the temperature has been found analytically in the form $\propto T_c^{{3}{2}}T^{Δ-{1}{2}}\sqrt{1-({T}{T_c})^3}$. The critical exponent ${1}{2}$ is an universal quantity according to predictions of the mean field theory and independent from the Weyl coupling $γ$. Our analytical results confirm the numerical results and also agree on computations using by the variational method.

description: In this paper, we revisit the problem of influence maximization with fairness, which aims to select k influential nodes to maximise the spread of information in a network, while ensuring that selected sensitive user attributes are fairly affected, i.e., are proportionally similar between the original network and the affected users. Recent studies on this problem focused only on extremely small networks, hence the challenge remains on how to achieve a scalable solution, applicable to networks with millions or billions of nodes. We propose an approach that is based on learning node representations for fair spread from diffusion cascades, instead of the social connectivity s.t. we can deal with very large graphs. We propose two data-driven approaches: (a) fairness-based participant sampling (FPS), and (b) fairness as context (FAC). Spread related user features, such as the probability of diffusing information to others, are derived from the historical information cascades, using a deep neural network. The extracted features are then used in selecting influencers that maximize the influence spread, while being also fair with respect to the chosen sensitive attributes. In FPS, fairness and cascade length information are considered independently in the decision-making process, while FAC considers these information facets jointly and considers correlations between them. The proposed algorithms are generic and represent the first policy-driven solutions that can be applied to arbitrary sets of sensitive attributes at scale. We evaluate the performance of our solutions on a real-world public dataset (Sina Weibo) and on a hybrid real-synthethic dataset (Digg), which exhibit all the facets that we exploit, namely diffusion network, diffusion traces, and user profiles. These experiments show that our methods outperform the state-the-art solutions in terms of spread, fairness, and scalability.

description: Fast-sampled models are essential for control design, e.g., to address intersample behavior. The aim of this paper is to develop a non-parametric identification technique for fast-sampled models of systems that have relevant dynamics and actuation above the Nyquist frequency of the sensor, such as vision-in-the-loop systems. The developed method assumes smoothness of the frequency response function, which allows to disentangle aliased components through local models over multiple frequency bands. The method identifies fast-sampled models of slowly-sampled systems accurately in a single identification experiment. Finally, an experimental example demonstrates the effectiveness of the technique.

description: We consider the problem of solving linear systems of equations that arise in the numerical solution of singularly perturbed ordinary and partial differential equations of reaction-diffusion type. Standard discretization techniques are not suitable for such problems and, so, specially tailored methods are required, usually involving adapted or fitted meshes that resolve important features such as boundary and/or interior layers. In this study, we consider classical finite difference schemes on the layer adapted meshes of Shishkin and Bakhvalov. We show that standard direct solvers exhibit poor scaling behaviour when solving the resulting linear systems. We investigate the use of standard robust multigrid preconditioners for these linear systems, and we propose and prove optimality of a new block-structured preconditioning approach.

We show that any result proved using rich families holds also when formulated with elementary submodels and the converse is true in spaces with fundamental minimal system an in spaces of density $\aleph_1$. We do not know whether the converse is true in general. We apply our results to show that a projectional skeleton may be without loss of generality indexed by ranges of its projections.

Membrane potential based assay for SLC13A3 using HEK-293 SLC13A3 OE cells
Creators: name: Tremolada, Sara

Publisher: name: Zenodo

Subjects: Transport assay

description: FLIPR® membrane potential dye measures changes of charges across the cell membrane, upon activation of SLC13A3. The assay allows the detection of ion channel and transporter modulation by increasing or decreasing the fluorescent signal as cellular membrane potential changes. When cells are depolarized dye enters the cells, causing an increase in fluorescent signal, conversely, cells hyperpolarization results in dye exit and decreased fluorescence. SLC13A3 is the human Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporter that couples 3 Na+ ions to the transport of each divalent anion substrate. It transports a broad range of substrates including dicarboxylates containing from four to six carbon atoms (e.g., succinate), as well as tricarboxylates (e.g., citrate). It is an electrogenic transporter eligible to be studied using the membrane potential dye.

description: Lorentz and CPT violation can affect the rates for $t$-$\ol t$ production and decay. The Lorentz-violating coefficients in the Standard-Model Extension responsible for modifying the top-quark events have recently been bounded by the D0 Collaboration. To extend the analysis to the LHC the calculations need to be extended to include the gluon fusion production mechanism. Some of the first results of this program were presented at the Meeting.

description: We discuss whether massive neutrinos (either active or sterile) can reconcile some of the tensions within cosmological data that have been brought into focus by the recently released {\it Planck} data. We point out that a discrepancy is present when comparing the primary CMB and lensing measurements both from the CMB and galaxy lensing data using CFHTLenS, similar to that which arises when comparing CMB measurements and SZ cluster counts. A consistent picture emerges and including a prior for the cluster constraints and BAOs we find that: for an active neutrino model with 3 degenerate neutrinos, $\sum m_ν= (0.320 \pm 0.081)\,{\rm eV}$, whereas for a sterile neutrino, in addition to 3 neutrinos with a standard hierarchy and $\sum m_ν= 0.06\,{\rm eV}$, $m_{ν, \, \rm sterile}^{\rm eff}= (0.450 \pm 0.124)\,{\rm eV}$ and $ΔN_{\rm eff} = 0.45 \pm 0.23$. In both cases there is a significant detection of modification to the neutrino sector from the standard model and in the case of the sterile neutrino it is possible to reconcile the BAO and local $H_0$ measurements. However, a caveat to our result is some internal tension between the CMB and lensing/cluster observations, and the masses are in excess of those estimated from the shape of the matter power spectrum from galaxy surveys.

Measuring User Experience of Adaptive User Interfaces using EEG: A Replication Study

description: Adaptive user interfaces have the advantage of being able to dynamically change their aspect and/or behaviour depending on the characteristics of the context of use, i.e. to improve user experience(UX). UX is an important quality factor that has been primarily evaluated with classical measures but to a lesser extent with physiological measures, such as emotion recognition, skin response, or brain activity.In a previous exploratory experiment involving users with different profiles and a wide range of ages, we analysed user experience in terms of cognitive load, engagement, attraction and memorisation when employing twenty graphical adaptive menus through the use of an Electroencephalogram (EEG) device. The results indicated that there were statistically significant differences for these four variables. However, we considered that it was necessary to confirm or reject these findings using a more homogeneous group of users.We conducted an operational internal replication study with 40 participants. We also investigated the potential correlation between EEG signals and the participants' user experience ratings, such as their preferences.The results of this experiment confirm that there are statistically significant differences between the EEG variables when the participants interact with the different adaptive menus. Moreover, there is a high correlation among the participants' UX ratings and the EEG signals, and a trend regarding performance has emerged from our analysis.These findings suggest that EEG signals could be used to evaluate UX. With regard to the menus studied, our results suggest that graphical menus with different structures and font types produce more differences in users' brain responses, while menus which use colours produce more similarities in users' brain responses. Several insights with which to improve users' experience of graphical adaptive menus are outlined.

Average expansion rate and light propagation in a cosmological Tardis spacetime

description: We construct the first exact statistically homogeneous and isotropic cosmological solution in which inhomogeneity has a significant effect on the expansion rate. The universe is modelled as a Swiss Cheese, with dust FRW background and inhomogeneous holes. We show that if the holes are described by the quasispherical Szekeres solution, their average expansion rate is close to the background under certain rather general conditions. We specialise to spherically symmetric holes and violate one of these conditions. As a result, the average expansion rate at late times grows relative to the background, i.e. backreaction is significant. The holes fit smoothly into the background, but are larger on the inside than a corresponding background domain: we call them Tardis regions. We study light propagation, find the effective equations of state and consider the relation of the spatially averaged expansion rate to the redshift and the angular diameter distance.

description: We derive expressions for the efficiency and figure of merit of two spin caloritronic devices based on the spin Seebeck effect (SSE), i.e., the generation of spin currents by a temperature gradient. The inverse spin Hall effect is conventionally used to detect the SSE and offers advantages for large area applications. We also propose a device that converts spin current into electric one by means of a spin-valve detector, which scales favorably to small sizes and approaches a figure of merit of 0.5 at room temperature.

description: Graphene is a powerful membrane prototype for both applications and fundamental research. Rheological phenomena including indentation, twisting, and wrinkling in deposited and suspended graphene are actively investigated to unravel the mechanical laws at the nanoscale. Most studies focused on isotropic set-ups, while realistic graphene membranes are often subject to strongly anisotropic constraints, with important consequences for the rheology, strain, indentation, and friction in engineering conditions.
Minimal Weak Basis Textures and Quark Mixing Data

description: The phenomenology of most general quark mass matrices with minimum of three texture zeros obtained through weak basis (WB) transformations has been discussed within the framework of the standard Model (SM). The relationship of textures, naturalness and weak basis transformations has also been studied. Adopting a 'hierarchical' parametrization for the quark mass matrix, we have detailed exact relations for the various elements of the quark mixing matrix along with the CP asymmetry angle β illustrating the explicit relationship between the observed hierarchies among the WB quark mass matrices and the quark mixing matrix. Besides exploring the complete parameter space available to the (Mq)11, (q = u, d) elements in these mass matrices, their implications for quark mixing data and CP violation asymmetries have also been explored.

Excitation Properties of Photopigments and Their Possible Dependence on the Host Star

description: Photosynthesis is a plausible pathway for the sustenance of a substantial biosphere on an exoplanet. In fact, it is also anticipated to create distinctive biosignatures detectable by next-generation telescopes. In this work, we explore the excitation features of photopigments that harvest electromagnetic radiation by constructing a simple quantum-mechanical model. Our analysis suggests that the primary Earth-based photopigments for photosynthesis may not function efficiently at wavelengths $> 1.1$ $μ$m. In the context of (hypothetical) extrasolar photopigments, we calculate the potential number of conjugated $π$-electrons ($N_\star$) in the relevant molecules, which can participate in the absorption of photons. By hypothesizing that the absorption maxima of photopigments are close to the peak spectral photon flux of the host star, we utilize the model to estimate $N_\star$. As per our formalism, $N_\star$ is modulated by the stellar temperature, and is conceivably higher (lower) for planets orbiting stars cooler (hotter) than the sun; exoplanets around late-type M-dwarfs might require an $N_\star$ twice that of the Earth. We conclude the analysis with a brief exposition of how our model could be empirically tested by future observations.
