description: We propose a simple yet very predictive form, based on a Poisson's equation, for the functional dependence of the cost from the density of points in the Euclidean bipartite matching problem. This leads, for quadratic costs, to the analytic prediction of the large $N$ limit of the average cost in dimension $d=1,2$ and of the subleading correction in higher dimension. A non-trivial scaling exponent, $γ_d=\frac{d-2}{d}$, which differs from the monopartite's one, is found for the subleading correction. We argue that the same scaling holds true for a generic cost exponent in dimension $d>2$.

description: Across multicellular organisms, the costs of reproduction and self-maintenance result in a life history trade-off between fecundity and longevity. Queens of perennial social Hymenoptera are both highly fertile and long-lived, and thus, this fundamental trade-off is lacking. Whether social insect males similarly evade the fecundity/longevity trade-off remains largely unstudied. Wingless males of the ant genus Cardiocondyla stay in their natal colonies throughout their relatively long lives and mate with multiple female sexuals. Here, we show that Cardiocondyla obscurior males that were allowed to mate with large numbers of female sexuals had a shortened life span compared to males that mated at a low frequency or virgin males. Although frequent mating negatively affects longevity, males clearly benefit from a "live fast, die young strategy" by inseminating as many female sexuals as possible at a cost to their own survival.

description: Structural, magnetic, and superconducting properties of S/F bilayers Nb/Cu40Ni60 deposited on silicon substrate have been characterized using Polarized Neutron Reflectometry and complementary techniques. The study allowed to determine real thicknesses of the S and F layers as well as the r.m.s. roughness of the S/F interfaces. The latter does not exceed 1 nm, showing the high quality of the S/F interface. Using SQUID and a mutual inductance setup we determined the superconducting transition temperatures of the samples, which are in agreement with the literature data. Using of PNR for the single S layer allowed to determine the screening length lambda of the superconducting layer, lambda = 120 nm. This value is higher than the London penetration depth for pure niobium which may indicate that the superconductor is in the dirty limit. PNR and SQUID studies of magnetic properties of the CuNi layer have shown the presence of ferromagnetism in all investigated samples.

description: When its State Planning Act was signed into law in 1986, New Jersey became the fifth state in the United States to establish a contemporary state government program to guide development and redevelopment statewide. Six years later, as it prepared its first State Development and Redevelopment Plan, the New Jersey State Planning Commission conducted a study to consider the experiences of the four existing statewide planning programs. By 1997, several more states had established statewide planning programs. This study updates the Commission's initial analysis and identifies resources the Commission could consult in evaluating New Jersey's efforts.

description: The influence of absorption on the spectra of microwave graphs has been studied experimentally. The microwave networks were made up of coaxial cables and T junctions. First, absorption was introduced by attaching a 50 Ohm load to an additional vertex for graphs with and without time-reversal symmetry. The resulting level-spacing distributions were compared with a generalization of the Wigner surmise in the presence of open channels proposed recently by Poli et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 174101 (2012)]. Good agreement was found using an effective coupling parameter. Second, absorption was introduced along one individual bond via a variable microwave attenuator, and the influence of absorption on the length spectrum was studied. The peak heights in the length spectra corresponding to orbits avoiding the absorber were found to be independent of the attenuation, whereas, the heights of the peaks belonging to orbits passing the absorber once or twice showed the expected decrease with increasing attenuation.

GIS and Coastal Boundary Disputes: Where is Ellis Island?
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection
Year: 1999

description: Ellis Island is a significant historical site just up the bay from tiny Liberty Island in Upper New York Bay. Why?  Because it was here that millions of immigrants first put foot in America. But where is Ellis Island? Until recently, a coastal boundary dispute between New York and New Jersey made the answer to that question uncertain. The island was originally only 3 or so acres but because of the filling of tidal waters around the island to create room to house and process the immigrants, the island grew to over 27 acres. New Jersey claimed jurisdiction to all those areas filled but New York insisted the entire island, no matter what its size, was hers based on a compact signed by the two states in 1834.In 1980 the State of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), as part of the statewide effort to delineate tidelands delineated a claim line that essentially claimed the entire filled portion of Ellis Island, except the original three acres. (In New Jersey, all lands flowed by the tide now or formerly are owned by the state). New York objected. The states continued to squabble. Finally, in 1993, the State of New Jersey invoked the Supreme Courts jurisdiction to try the dispute. Coastal boundaries have historically been mapped on linen, and more recently mylar, but in this case the NJDEP invoked the modern technology of GIS to assist the state's attorney general in preparing the case. Historic maps were scanned and registered to modern ortho-photography to assist in determining where and when areas were filled. GPS points were gathered and surveys made. All the digital data was then analyzed on the GIS to show where and how much fill was placed in the area. New Jersey used these data to argue that those areas filled after the compact were indeed still under the jurisdiction of New Jersey (Ellis Island is a National Park and therefore ownership was not the issue). A special master determined, and on May 26th 1998 the Supreme Court agreed, that New Jersey had sovereign authority over the filled land added to the original island. New York retained authority to the original 3-acre island. GIS was then used to implement the Supreme Court's decision. NJDEP GIS scientists delineated the line between states using historical digital maps and adjusted the boundary line between states to the satisfaction of all parties. This paper will detail this historic decision and the implementation of the decision and the critical role GIS played.

description: We report on electrical spin injection from (Ga, Mn) As into a high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas confined at an (Al, Ga) As/GaAs interface. Besides standard nonlocal electrical detection, we use amagneto-optical approach which provides cross-sectional images of the spin accumulation at the cleaved edge of the sample, yielding spin decay lengths on the order of 2 mu m. In some cases we find a nonmonotonic bias voltage dependence of the spin signal, which may be linked to ballistic tunneling effects during spin injection. We observe a clear Hanle depolarization using a technique which is free of dynamic nuclear polarization effects. Fitting the data with the standard drift-diffusion model of spin injection suggests averaged in-plane spin lifetimes on the order of 1 ns.

Quantum Mechanical Assessment of Optimal Photovoltaic Conditions in Organic Solar Cells

description: Recombination losses contribute to reduce $J_{SC}$, $V_{OC}$ and the fill factor of organic solar cells. Recent advances in non-fullerene organic photovoltaics have shown, nonetheless, that efficient charge generation can occur under small energetic driving forces ($ΔE_{DA}$) and low recombination losses. To shed light on this issue, we set up a coarse-grained open quantum mechanical model for investigating the charge generation dynamics subject to various energy loss mechanisms. The influence of energetic driving force, Coulomb interaction, vibrational disorder, geminate recombination, temperature and external bias are included in the analysis of the optimal photovoltaic conditions for charge carrier generation. The assessment reveals that the overall energy losses are not only minimized when $ΔE_{DA}$ approaches the effective reorganization energy at the interface but also become insensitive to temperature and electric field variations. It is also observed that a moderate reverse bias reduces geminate recombination losses significantly at vanishing driving forces, where the charge generation is strongly affected by temperature.
Gödel-type solutions in $f(R,T,R_{μν} T^{μν}$) gravity

description: In this paper, $f(R,T,R_{μν} T^{μν}$) gravity is considered. It is a modified theory of gravity that exhibits a strong coupling of gravitational and matter fields. Therefore, if gravity is governed by this model a number of issues must be re-examined. In this context, the question of causality and its violation is studied. Such analysis is carried out using the Gödel-type solutions. It is shown that this model allows both causal and non-causal solutions. These solutions depend directly on the content of matter present in the universe. For the non-causal solution, a critical radius is calculated, beyond which causality is violated. Taking different matter contents, an infinite critical radius emerges that leads to a causal solution. In this causal solution, a natural relationship emerges between the parameters that determine the matter considered.

description: The phrase ‘in it together’ has been used liberally since the outbreak of COVID-19, but the extent that frontline workers felt ‘in it together’ is not well understood. Here, we consider the factors that built (or eroded) solidarity while working through the pandemic, and how frontline workers navigated their lives through periods of disconnection. Semi-structured interviews with 21 frontline workers, across all sectors, were conducted in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The qualitative data were analysed systematically using reflexive thematic analysis. The three themes identified in the data were: (1) Solidarity as central to frontline experiences; (2) Leadership as absent, shallow and divisive: highlighting ‘us-them’ distinctions and (3) The rise of ‘us’ and ‘we’ among colleagues. Our research offers insights into how frontline workers make sense of their experiences of solidarity and discordance during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, with relevance for government and organizational policy-makers shaping future conditions for frontline workers.

description: Gaseous outflows are key phenomena in the evolution of galaxies, as they affect star formation (either positively or negatively), eject gas from the core or disk, and directly cause mixing of pristine and processed material. Active outflows may be detected through searches for broad spectral line emission or high-velocity gas, but it is also possible to determine the presence of past outflows by searching for extended reservoirs of chemically enriched molecular gas in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) around galaxies. In this work, we examine the CO(3-2) emission of a set of seven z~2.0-2.5 AGN host galaxies, as observed with ALMA. Through a three-dimensional stacking analysis we find evidence for extended CO emission of radius r~13kpc. We extend this analysis to the HST/ACS i-band images of the sample galaxies, finding a complex small-scale (r<10kpc) morphology but no robust evidence for extended emission. In addition, the dust emission (traced by rest-frame FIR emission) shows no evidence for significant spatial extension. This indicates that the diffuse CO emission revealed by ALMA is morphologically distinct from the stellar component, and thus traces an extended reservoir of enriched gas. The presence of a diffuse, enriched molecular reservoir around this sample of AGN host galaxies at cosmic noon hints at a history of AGN-driven outflows that likely had strong effects on the star formation history of these objects.

description: Abstract Objectives Clinical long-term outcomes of women with uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) with different types of hysterectomy (open abdominal, vaginal, laparoscopic and switch from laparoscopic to open abdominal) were compared according to morcellation and other factors. Materials The clinical cancer registry Regensburg (Germany) registered 64 patients between 2004 and 2013 with ULMS. A retrospective cohort analysis was performed using the Kaplan–Meier method to estimate 5-year overall survival (OAS), recurrence-free survival (RFS) and recurrence rates. To compare surgery with or without morcellation log rank test was used. To adjust for age, FIGO stage, grading and other factors multivariable Cox regression models were applied to estimate hazard ratios (HR). Results In the cohort of 64 patients 15 underwent morcellation, preferably during laparoscopic surgery. Although numbers were small we performed analysis for OAS and RFS. Median OAS for morcellation was 10.6 vs. 6.4 years for non morcellation. 5y-OAS was 76.0 % for morcellation compared to 54.8 % in patients without morcellation (p = 0.115). Cox regression models rendered an unadjusted (univariable) HR 0.428 for morcellation vs. nonmorcellation (p = 0.125) and an adjusted (multivariable) HR 0.644 (p = 0.406). 5y-RFR was 64.0 % compared to 42.8 % in patients without morcellation (p = 0.104; unadjusted HR 0.484, p = 0.111; adjusted HR 0.607, p = 0.306). Conclusion In general, the prognosis of patients with ULMS is poor. In our cohort, women who underwent hysterectomy with morcellation had a better cumulative OAS and RFS than women without morcellation. Although we adjusted for differences between women with and without morcellation regarding age, grading and stage, there were no statistically significant differences between the groups.

description: Although Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become widely used in teaching, studies have found that some teachers are resistant to ICT integration. Teachers’ ideas about the benefits of ICT and their ideas about teaching and learning might affect their response to ICT use. This study investigated the relationship between Saudi teachers' pedagogical ideas, their understanding of ICT affordances, their integration of ICT into their teaching. To complete this investigation, the contextual factors that might impact ICT integration were also examined. In this study, a generic qualitative research approach was used. Data were collected (July2018-Feb 2019) from 20 in-depth, one-to-one interviews with university teachers from Saudi Arabia. Data were analysed manually using coding and thematic techniques. The findings suggest that some teachers are aware of popular ICTs, but they seem unable to grasp their strengths in relation to design, usability, accessibility, their full capacities, and their impact on learning. The findings also indicate that some teachers’ espoused pedagogical ideas did not match their teaching style or their use of ICTs in practice. Teachers also reported several factors that may have prevented them from using ICTs in ways consistent with their espoused pedagogical ideas. It is therefore recommended that teachers are helped to understand the strengths and limitations of ICT and how to use it effectively to meet their and their students’ needs. In addition, this research study considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the findings and provided some suggestions on how to cope with sudden changes in circumstances. It is hoped that this study will help us to understand how ICT is used in higher education, teachers’ expectations and the challenges they face in relation to their understanding of ICT affordances and teaching and learning. Also, the findings from this this study could potentially help university administrators to do more to meet teachers’ needs with regard to using ICT in practice.

description: We study the effect of long-range disorder created by charge impurities on the carrier density distribution of graphene-based heterostructures. We consider heterostructures formed by two graphenic sheets (either single layer graphene, SLG, or bilayer graphene, BLG) separated by a dielectric film. We present results for symmetric heterostructures, SLG-SLG and BLG-BLG, and hybrid ones, BLG-SLG. As for isolated layers, we find that the presence of charged impurities induces strong carrier density inhomogeneities, especially at low dopings where the density landscape breaks up in electron-hole puddles. We provide quantitative results for the strength of the carrier density inhomogeneities and for the screened disorder potential for a large range of experimentally relevant conditions. For heterostructures in which BLG is present we also present results for the band-gap induced by the perpendicular electric field generated self-consistently by the disorder potential and by the distribution of charges in the heterostructure. For SLG-SLG heterostructures we discuss the relevance of our results for the understanding of the recently observed metal-insulator transition in each of the graphene layers forming the heterostructure. Moreover, we calculate the correlation between the density profiles in the two graphenic layers and show that for standard experimental conditions the two profiles are well correlated.

description: Gas-phase metallicities of galaxies are typically measured through auroral or nebular emission lines, but metallicity also leaves an imprint on the overall spectral energy distribution (SED) of a galaxy and can be estimated through SED fitting. We use the ProSpect SED fitting code with a flexible parametric star formation history and an evolving metallicity history to self-consistently measure metallicities, stellar mass, and other galaxy properties for $\sim90\,000$ galaxies from the Deep Extragalactic VIsible Legacy Survey (DEVILS) and Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. We use these to trace the evolution of the mass-metallicity relation (MZR) and show that the MZR only evolves in normalisation by $\sim0.1\,$dex at stellar mass $M_\star = 10^{10.5}\,M_\odot$. We find no difference in the MZR between galaxies with and without SED evidence of active galactic nuclei emission at low redshifts ($z<0.3$). Our results suggest an anti-correlation between metallicity and star formation activity at fixed stellar mass for galaxies with $M_\star > 10^{10.5}\,M_\odot$ for $z<0.3$. Using the star formation histories extracted using ProSpect we explore higher-order correlations of the MZR with properties of the star formation history including age, width, and shape. We find that at a given stellar mass, galaxies with higher metallicities formed most of their mass over shorter timescales, and before their peak star formation rate. This work highlights the value of exploring the connection of a galaxy's current gas-phase metallicity to its star formation history in order to understand the physical processes shaping the MZR.

Multifrequency radiation hydrodynamics simulations of H2 line emission in primordial, star-forming clouds

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)

description: We investigate the collapse of primordial gas in a minihalo with three-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics simulations that accurately model the transfer of H2 line emission. For this purpose, we have implemented a multiline, multifrequency ray-tracing scheme in the moving-mesh code Arepo that is capable of adaptively refining rays based on the Healpix algorithm, as well as a hybrid equilibrium/non-equilibrium primordial chemistry solver. We find that a multifrequency treatment of the individual H2 lines is essential, since for high optical depths the smaller cross-section in the wings of the lines greatly increases the amount of energy that can escape. The influence of Doppler shifts due to bulk velocities is comparatively small, since systematic velocity differences in the cloud are typically smaller than the sound speed. During the initial collapse phase, the radially averaged escape fraction agrees relatively well with the fit of Ripamonti & Abel. However, in general it is not advisable to use a simple density-dependent fitting function, since the escape fraction depends on many factors and does not capture the suppression of density perturbations due to the diffusion of radiation. The Sobolev method overestimates the escape fraction by more than an order of magnitude, since the properties of the gas change on scales smaller than the Sobolev length.

description: We discuss how the double missing partner mechanism solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem in four-dimensional supersymmetric SU(5) Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) can be combined with predictive models for the quark-lepton Yukawa coupling ratios at the GUT scale. It is argued that towards this goal a second SU(5) breaking Higgs field in the adjoint representation is very useful and we discuss all possible renormalizable superpotentials with two adjoint Higgs fields and calculate the constraints on the GUT scale and effective triplet mass from a two-loop gauge coupling unification analysis. Two explicit flavour models with different predictions for the GUT scale Yukawa sector are presented, including shaping symmetries and a renormalizable messenger sector. Towards calculating the rates for proton decay induced by the exchange of colour triplets, the required Clebsch-Gordan coefficients for their couplings are calculated for the possible dimension five and six operators. They are provided in detailed tables in the appendix, together with additional helpful material for GUT flavour model building.

description: This paper describes a controlled web-based study (n=126), investigating whether the perception of the credibility of refugee-related Tweets can be influenced by cues already reported in the literature for social media content generally. We provide empirical evidence that both a Tweet's popularity and the presence of links -- even neutral links created by URL shortening services -- may increase a user's belief that the Tweet contains credible information. This is important because the propagation of false information relating to refugees on social media sites has been well documented.
Optical Features of Rotating Black Hole with Nonlinear Electrodynamics

description: In this article, we considered the strong field approximation of nonlinear electrodynamics black hole and constructed its rotating counterpart by applying the modified Newman-Janis algorithm. The corresponding metric function in the strong field limit of the static black hole is identified in order to study the radius of photon sphere. However, the metric function for the rotating counterpart in the strong field limit is considered in order to study the horizon radius w.r.t spin parameter. We considered the Hamilton-Jacobi method to derive the geodesic equations for photon and constructed an orthonormal tetrad for deriving the equations for celestial coordinates in the observer's sky. Shadows, distortions and energy emission rates are investigated and the results are compared for different values of nonlinear electrodynamics parameter, charge and spin. It is found that the presence of the nonlinear electrodynamics parameter affects the shape and size of the shadows and thus the distortion in the case of rotation. It is also found that the nonlinearity of electrodynamics diminishes the flatness in the shadow due to the effect of spin and other parameters.

description: In this study, we explore the reasons peers provided as justifications for their evaluations of the credibility of research claims, focusing on whether individuals cluster in the types of reasons provided in their justifications (e.g., are there peers who focus mostly on an article's generalisability vs. statistical inference vs. measures vs. writing style?). By exploring these justifications via correspondence analysis, we hope to offer new insight into the black box that often is the evaluation of science, such as peer review. Specifically, can peer evaluators’ patterns of reasoning about the credibility of research claims help us better understand differences between individual approaches to reviewing empirical research?
Dynamical quantum phase transitions and the Loschmidt echo: A transfer matrix approach

description: A boundary transfer matrix formulation allows to calculate the Loschmidt echo for one-dimensional quantum systems in the thermodynamic limit. We show that non-analyticities in the Loschmidt echo and zeros for the Loschmidt amplitude in the complex plane (Fisher zeros) are caused by a crossing of eigenvalues in the spectrum of the transfer matrix. Using a density-matrix renormalization group algorithm applied to these transfer matrices we numerically investigate the Loschmidt echo and the Fisher zeros for quantum quenches in the XXZ model with a uniform and a staggered magnetic field. We give examples---both in the integrable and the non-integrable case---where the Loschmidt echo does not show non-analyticities although the quench leads across an equilibrium phase transition, and examples where non-analyticities appear for quenches within the same phase. For a quench to the free fermion point, we analytically show that the Fisher zeros sensitively depend on the initial state and can lie exactly on the real axis already for finite system size. Furthermore, we use bosonization to analyze our numerical results for quenches within the Luttinger liquid phase.
