description: The production of a Bose-Einstein condensate made of positronium may be feasible in the near future. Below the condensation temperature, the positronium collision process is modified by the presence of the condensate. This makes the theoretical description of the positronium kinetics at low temperature challenging. Based on the quasi-particle Bogoliubov theory, we describe the many-body particle-particle collision in a simple manner. We find that, in a good approximation, the full positronium-positronium interaction can be described by an effective scattering length. Our results are general and apply to different species of bosons. The correction to the bare scattering length is expressed in terms of a single dimensionless parameter that completely characterizes the condensate.

description: Recent clarifications of naturalness in supersymmetry robustly require the presence of four light higgsinos with mass ~100-300 GeV while gluinos and (top)-squarks may lie in the multi-TeV range, possibly out of LHC reach. We project the high luminosity (300-3000 fb^{-1}) reach of LHC14 via gluino cascade decays and via same-sign diboson production. We compare these to the reach for neutralino pair production \tz_1\tz_2 followed by \tz_2\to\tz_1\ell^+\ell^- decay to soft dileptons which recoil against a hard jet. It appears that 3000 fb^{-1} is just about sufficient integrated luminosity to probe naturalness with up to 3\% fine-tuning at the 5-sigma level, thus either discovering natural supersymmetry or else ruling it out.

Linking density functional and mode coupling models for supercooled liquids

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We compare predictions from two familiar models of the metastable supercooled liquid respectively constructed with thermodynamic and dynamic approach. In the so called density functional theory (DFT) the free energy $F[ρ]$ of the liquid is a functional of the inhomogeneous density $ρ({\bf r})$. The metastable state is identified as a local minimum of $F[ρ]$. The sharp density profile characterizing $ρ({\bf r})$ is identified as a single particle oscillator, whose frequency is obtained from the parameters of the optimum density function. On the other hand, a dynamic approach to supercooled liquids is taken in the mode coupling theory (MCT) which predict a sharp ergodicity-nonergodicity transition at a critical density. The single particle dynamics in the non-ergodic state, treated approximately, represents a propagating mode whose characteristic frequency is computed from the corresponding memory function of the MCT. The mass localization parameters in the above two models (treated in their simplest forms) are obtained respectively in terms of the corresponding natural frequencies depicted and are shown to have comparable magnitudes.

description: An accurate treatment of the structures and dynamics that lead to enhanced chemical reactivity in enzymes requires explicit treatment of both electronic and nuclear quantum effects. The former can be captured in ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations while the latter can be included by performing ab initio path integral molecular dynamics (AI-PIMD) simulations. Both AIMD and AI-PIMD simulations have traditionally been computationally prohibitive for large enzymatic systems. Recent developments in streaming computer architectures and new algorithms to accelerate path integral simulations now make these simulations practical for biological systems, allowing elucidation of enzymatic reactions in unprecedented detail. In this chapter, we summarize these recent developments and discuss practical considerations for applying AIMD and AI-PIMD simulations to enzymes.

description: Metal-organic hybrid structures have been demonstrated a versatile platform to study primary aspects of light-matter interaction by means of emerging states comprising excitonic and plasmonic properties. Here we are studying the wave-vector dependent photo-excitations in gold layers covered by molecular films of zinc-phthalocyanine and its fluorinated derivatives (FnZnPc, with n = 0,4,8,16). These layered metal-organic samples show up to four anti-crossings in their dispersions correlating in energy with the respective degree of ZnPc fluorination. By means of complementary structural and theoretical data, we attribute the observed anti-crossings to three main scenarios of surface plasmon coupling: i) to aggregated $α$-phase regions within the FnZnPc layers at 1.75 eV and 1.85 eV , ii) to a coexisting F16ZnPc $β$-polymorph at 1.51 eV, and iii) to monomers, preferentially located at the metal interface, at 2.15 eV. Whereas energy and splitting of the monomer anti-crossings depend on strength and average tilting of the molecular dipole moments, the aggregate related anti-crossings show a distinct variation with degree of fluorination. These observations can be consistently explained by a change in FnZnPc dipole density induced by an increased lattice spacing due to the larger molecular van der Waals radii upon fluorination. The reported results prove Au/FnZnPc bilayers a model system to demonstrate the high sensitivity of exciton-plasmon coupling on the molecular alignment at microscopic length scales.

description: We present results from the aging test of a recently fabricated 20 cm × 20 cm Large Area Picosecond Photodetector
 (LAPPD) by INCOM Inc. A differentiating feature of LAPPD is the use of ALD-GCA-micro channel
 plates (MCPs) fabricated by utilizing atomic layer deposition (ALD) technology to coat the resistive and
 emissive films to the surface of bare glass capillary arrays. LAPPD has the largest active area among the
 commercially available planar MCP-photomultiplier tube (MCP-PMT) photodetectors. Accelerated aging of
 the LAPPD MCP-PMT has been achieved by exposing a highly localized region of the photodetector to 450
 nm photons at high rates. Our previous investigations have shown that the radiation effects of a pixel-based
 exposure are highly localized with minimal damage beyond the exposed area making it possible to characterize
 performance results while retaining the future usability of the MCP-PMT. In the present accelerated aging
 experiment, we extract current densities of about 1.4 μA/cm2 from the LAPPD MCP-PMT which is made
 possible by the reasonably high gain of the LAPPD at high event rates. In this presentation, we will discuss
 the pre-test characteristics of the LAPPD MCP-PMT along with its performance after irradiation up to a few
 coulombs per cm2.
Generalized Similarity for Accretion/Decretion Disks

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Decretion (or external) disks are gas disks freely expanding to large radii due to their internal stresses. They are expected to naturally arise in tidal disruption events, around Be stars, in mass-losing post main sequence binaries, as a result of supernova fallback, etc. Their evolution is theoretically understood in two regimes: when the central object does not exert torque on the disk (a standard assumption for conventional accretion disks) or when no mass inflow (or outflow) occurs at the disk center. However, many astrophysical objects - circumbinary disks, Be stars, neutron stars accreting in a propeller regime, etc. - feature non-zero torque simultaneously with the non-zero accretion (or ejection of mass) at the disk center. We provide a general description for the evolution of such disks (both linear and non-linear) in the self-similar regime, to which the disk should asymptotically converge with time. We identify a similarity parameter $λ$, which is uniquely related to the degree, to which the central mass accretion is suppressed by the non-zero central torque. The known decretion disk solutions correspond to the two discrete values of $λ$, while our new solutions cover a continuum of its physically allowed values, corresponding to either accretion or mass ejection by the central object. A direct relationship between $λ$ and central $\dot M$ and torque is also established. We describe the time evolution of the various disk characteristics for different $λ$, and show that the observable properties (spectrum and luminosity evolution) of the decretion disks are in general different from the standard accretion disks with no central torque.

Optical Thin Film Diagnostic Using Designer Antibodies

Burrell, Robert
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2019

Personalized therapy for patients with cancer remains one of the most important challenges facing clinicians and researchers. In this proposal we describe a point-of-care device that can diagnose disease, or provide prognostic information, by quantifying protein expression. We have patented a thin film platform that uses interference colours to quantify proteins, using designer antibodies, in patient tumours, blood or urine. Interference colours are generated when light enters a two component system where the upper component is semi-transparent, that is it reflects some light, and the bottom component is also reflective. Our diagnostic platform is applicable to all patients in which tissue biopsy is possible or required. Since the vast majority of all cancers require tissue diagnosis and/or surgical resection as part of treatment, this diagnostic platform could apply to virtually all of the 180,000 Canadians affected every year with a new diagnosis of malignancy. This platform may change the nature of cancer tissue diagnosis and pathology given that we can rapidly detect and quantify markers of disease progression or metastases at the time of surgery. Our first application will be a protein biomarker platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) that is strongly associated with metastatic disease in papillary thyroid cancer. Validated in paraffin, frozen and fresh tumours and clearly linked in vitro and in vivo to an aggressive disease phenotype, PDGFRA was patented as a molecular diagnostic and represents an excellent model for testing our platform. This biomarker will be tested using the thin film diagnostic platform and tissue isolation protocol developed by Drs. Burrell and McMullen. The combination of a clinically-proven disease marker with the novel thin-film technology will provide a point-of-care diagnostic device that will predict the risk of metastases in a timely and reproducible manner. The ability to identify patients at high risk of metastases would decrease the number of unnecessary lymph node dissections in thyroid cancer by up to 40% (nearly 1300 cases/year). Physicians would also be able to focus aggressive surgery and radioactive iodine treatment efforts on those patients with aggressive disease early on decreasing recurrence rates up to 25% and possibly improving overall survival by 5 to 10% based on the known relationship between recurrence rates and prognosis.

description: Summary  IFMSA – Egypt is a non-political, non-religious, and non-profit student-run organization representing more than 70,000 Medical Students all over Egypt. IFMSA – Egypt is represented through 2,311 Medical Students in 18 Local Committees. The federation's goal is to serve society and medical students all over Egypt through its member organizations. IFMSA has six committees: Public Health, Reproductive Health including AIDS, Human Rights, Peace, Medical Education, Research Exchange, and Professional Exchange. The Standing Committee on Sexuality and Reproductive Health, including AIDS, is concerned with promoting sexual and reproductive health. Its members are driven by a strong will to participate in interventions relating to HIV and STIs and increase awareness concerning reproductive health and other related issues. Its vision is a world where every individual is empowered to exercise their sexual and reproductive health rights equally, free from stigma and discrimination. Its mission is to provide members with the tools necessary to advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights within their respective communities in a culturally respected fashion. Our culture, however, is undergoing a rapid change in attitudes about lifestyles, religion, family values. Hence, it is evident why it is so crucial to dedicate time for public education about sexual health, and this is accomplished through building the skills and the knowledge about, providing training, exchanging ideas and projects, as well as drafting policies and working with the committee's external partners to create change in local, regional and international levels. Female genital mutilation comprises all procedures that involve altering and hurting the female genitalia for non-medical reasons. That violence breaks the woman rights in safety according to the human rights rules, so we are going to hold an online campaign about Anti-FGM.
Robust Accelerated Primal-Dual Methods for Computing Saddle Points

description: We consider strongly-convex-strongly-concave saddle point problems assuming we have access to unbiased stochastic estimates of the gradients. We propose a stochastic accelerated primal-dual (SAPD) algorithm and show that SAPD sequence, generated using constant primal-dual step sizes, linearly converges to a neighborhood of the unique saddle point. Interpreting the size of the neighborhood as a measure of robustness to gradient noise, we obtain explicit characterizations of robustness in terms of SAPD parameters and problem constants. Based on these characterizations, we develop computationally tractable techniques for optimizing the SAPD parameters, i.e., the primal and dual step sizes, and the momentum parameter, to achieve a desired trade-off between the convergence rate and robustness on the Pareto curve. This allows SAPD to enjoy fast convergence properties while being robust to noise as an accelerated method. SAPD admits convergence guarantees for the distance metric with a variance term optimal up to a logarithmic factor -which can be removed by employing a restarting strategy. We also discuss how convergence and robustness results extend to the convex-concave setting. Finally, we illustrate our framework on distributionally robust logistic regression problem.

description: We review several experimental and theoretical advances that emphasise common aspects of the study of T=1 and T=0 pairing correlations in nuclei. We first discuss several empirical evidences of the special role played by the T=1 pairing interaction. In particular, we show the peculiar features of the nuclear pairing interaction in the low density regime, and possible outcomes such as the BCS-BEC crossover in nuclear matter and, in an analogous way, in loosely bound nuclei. We then move to the competition between T=1 and T=0 pairing correlations. The effect of such competition on the low-lying spectra is studied in N=Z odd-odd nuclei by using a three-body model; it is shown that the inversion of the 0+ and 1+ states near the ground state, and the strong magnetic dipole transitions between them, can be considered as a clear manifestation of strong T=0 pairing correlations in these nuclei. The effect of T=0 pairing correlations is also quite evident if one studies charge-changing transitions. The Gamow-Teller (GT) states in N=Z+2 nuclei are studied here by using self-consistent HFB+QRPA calculations in which the T=0 pairing interaction is taken into account. Strong GT states are found, near the ground state of daughter nuclei; these are compared with available experimental data from charge-exchange reactions, and such comparison can pinpoint the value of the strength of the T=0 interaction. Pair transfer reactions are eventually discussed: while two-neutron transfer has been long proposed as a tool to measure the T=1 superfluidity in the nuclear ground states, the study of deuteron transfer is still in its infancy, despite its potential interest in revealing effects coming from both T=1 and T=0 interactions.

description: Capabilities of inference and prediction are significant components of visual systems. In this paper, we address an important and challenging task of them: visual path prediction. Its goal is to infer the future path for a visual object in a static scene. This task is complicated as it needs high-level semantic understandings of both the scenes and motion patterns underlying video sequences. In practice, cluttered situations have also raised higher demands on the effectiveness and robustness of the considered models. Motivated by these observations, we propose a deep learning framework which simultaneously performs deep feature learning for visual representation in conjunction with spatio-temporal context modeling. After that, we propose a unified path planning scheme to make accurate future path prediction based on the analytic results of the context models. The highly effective visual representation and deep context models ensure that our framework makes a deep semantic understanding of the scene and motion pattern, consequently improving the performance of the visual path prediction task. In order to comprehensively evaluate the model's performance on the visual path prediction task, we construct two large benchmark datasets from the adaptation of video tracking datasets. The qualitative and quantitative experimental results show that our approach outperforms the existing approaches and owns a better generalization capability.

description: Transformative education interventions are needed to tackle intersecting inequalities. Across the TESF network, it was found that inequalities are complex. They are dynamic and are rooted temporally and spatially. Unequal education systems gloss over the structural nature of inequalities and camouflage the magnitude of the problem. This sustains and reinforces intersecting inequality. Educational inequality affects every aspect of life and is exacerbated by intersecting factors of poverty, gender, race, caste, class, region, disability and community. Intergenerational transmission of privilege and inequality occurs via all forms of education and learning. Standardised competency-based curricula undermine and invisibilise knowledge systems that are rooted in diverse social contexts and local communities. This homogenised knowledge alienates and disempowers communities and leads to epistemic violence, exclusion, and poor learning. The rise of digital learning has created new forms of exclusion as learners’ have limited access to technology and opportunities to learn. This is our Call to Action with evidence informed recommendations for transformative research. It was presented at TESF's online Legacy Event, July 17th 2023. This Call to Action is one of six: Climate and Environmental Justice Education Education for Sustainable Livelihoods Education for Sustainable Cities and Communities Tackling Intersecting Inequalities Knowledge co-creation for transforming education for sustainable futures Ethical partnerships for collaborative action and learning

description: Two-photon lasers require materials with large two-photon gain (2PG) coefficients and low linear and nonlinear losses. Our previous demonstration of large enhancement of two-photon absorption in semiconductors for very different photon energies translates directly into enhancement of 2PG. We experimentally demonstrate nondegenerate 2PG in optically excited bulk GaAs via femtosecond pump-probe measurements. 2PG is isolated from other pump induced effects through the difference between measurements performed with parallel and perpendicular polarizations of pump and probe. An enhancement in the 2PG coefficient of nearly two orders-of-magnitude is reported. The results point a possible way toward two-photon semiconductor lasers.

description: This paper presents Lidar-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) for autonomous driving vehicles. Fusing data from landmark sensors and a strap-down Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) in an adaptive Kalman filter (KF) plus the observability of the system are investigated. In addition to the vehicle's states and landmark positions, a self-tuning filter estimates the IMU calibration parameters as well as the covariance of the measurement noise. The discrete-time covariance matrix of the process noise, the state transition matrix, and the observation sensitivity matrix are derived in closed-form making them suitable for real-time implementation. Examining the observability of the 3D SLAM system leads to the conclusion that the system remains observable upon a geometrical condition on the alignment of the landmarks.

description: Keeping a quantum system in a given instantaneous eigenstate is a control problem with numerous applications, e.g., in quantum information processing. The problem is even more challenging in the setting of open quantum systems, where environment-mediated transitions introduce additional decoherence channels. Adiabatic passage is a well established solution, but requires a sufficiently slow evolution time that is dictated by the adiabatic theorem. Here we develop a systematic projection theory formulation for the transitionless evolution of general open quantum systems described by time-local master equations. We derive a time-convolutionless dynamical equation for the target instantaneous eigenstate of a given time-dependent Hamiltonian. A transitionless dynamics then arises in terms of a competition between the average Hamiltonian gap and the decoherence rate, which implies optimal adiabaticity timescales. We show how eigenstate tracking can be accomplished via control pulses, without explicitly incorporating counter-diabatic driving, thus offering an alternative route to shortcuts to adiabaticity. We examine rectangular pulses, chaotic signals, and white noise, and find that, remarkably, the effectiveness of eigenstate tracking hardly depends on the details of the control functions. In all cases the control protocol keeps the system in the desired instantaneous eigenstate throughout the entire evolution, along an accelerated adiabatic path.

How speed of sound measurements could bring constraints on the composition of Titan's seas

description: The hydrocarbons seas of Titan, discovered by Cassini/Huygens mission are among the most mysterious and interesting features of this moon. In the future, a possible dedicated planetary probe, will certainly measure the speed of sound in this cryogenic liquid, as it was planned in the case of a Huygens landing into a sea. Previous theoretical studies of such acoustic measurements were based on rather simple models, leading in some cases to unphysical situations. Employed in a vast body of chemical engineering works, the state of the art PC-SAFT model has been recently introduced in studies aimed at Titan. Here, I revisit the issue of the speed of sound in Titan's liquids, in the light of this theory. I describe, in detail, the derivation of the speed of sound from the chosen equation of state and the potential limitations of the approach. To make estimations of the composition of a ternary liquid mixture N2:CH4:C2H6 from speed of sound measurements an original inversion algorithm is proposed. It is shown that 50 measures between 90 K and 100 K are enough to ensure an accuracy of the derived compositions better than 10%. The influence of the possible presence of propane is also investigated.

description: We present results from sensitive, multi-epoch NuSTAR observations of the late-type star-forming galaxy M83 (d=4.6 Mpc), which is the first investigation to spatially resolve the hard (E>10 keV) X-ray emission of this galaxy. The nuclear region and ~ 20 off-nuclear point sources, including a previously discovered ultraluminous X-ray (ULX) source, are detected in our NuSTAR observations. The X-ray hardnesses and luminosities of the majority of the point sources are consistent with hard X-ray sources resolved in the starburst galaxy NGC 253. We infer that the hard X-ray emission is most likely dominated by intermediate accretion state black hole binaries and neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (Z-sources). We construct the X-ray binary luminosity function (XLF) in the NuSTAR band for an extragalactic environment for the first time. The M83 XLF has a steeper XLF than the X-ray binary XLF in NGC 253, consistent with previous measurements by Chandra at softer X-ray energies. The NuSTAR integrated galaxy spectrum of M83 drops quickly above 10 keV, which is also seen in the starburst galaxies NGC253, NGC 3310 and NGC 3256. The NuSTAR observations constrain any AGN to be either highly obscured or to have an extremely low luminosity of $_{\sim}^

description: In distributed learning, a central server trains a model according to updates provided by nodes holding local data samples. In the presence of one or more malicious servers sending incorrect information (a Byzantine adversary), standard algorithms for model training such as stochastic gradient descent (SGD) fail to converge. In this paper, we present a simplified convergence theory for the generic Byzantine Resilient SGD method originally proposed by Blanchard et al. [NeurIPS 2017]. Compared to the existing analysis, we shown convergence to a stationary point in expectation under standard assumptions on the (possibly nonconvex) objective function and flexible assumptions on the stochastic gradients.

description: The Robot Operating System (ROS) provides a software framework, and ecosystem of knowledge and community supplied resources to rapidly develop and prototype intelligent robotics applications. By standardizing communication, configuration and invocation of software modules, ROS facilitates reuse of device-driver and algorithm implementations. Using existing implementations of functionality allows users to assemble their robotics application from tested and known-good capabilities. Despite the efforts of the ROS-Industrial consortium and projects like ROSIN to bring ROS to industrial applications and integrate industrial hardware, we observe a lack of options to generically integrate basic physical IO. In this work we lay out and provide a solution to this problem by implementing a generic Modbus/TCP device driver for ROS.
