description: A wormhole solution in Newtonian gravitation, enhanced through an equation relating the Ricci scalar to the mass density, is presented. The wormhole inhabits a spherically symmetric curved space, with one throat and two asymptotically flat regions. Particle dynamics in this geometry is studied, and the three distinct dynamical radii, namely, the geodesic, circumferential, and curvature radii, appear naturally in the study of circular motion. Generic motion is also analysed. A limiting case, although inconclusive, suggests the possibility of having a Newtonian black hole in a region of finite (nonzero) size.

description: Asthma bronchiale ist eine chronisch-entzündliche Erkrankung der Atemwege, die in jedem Lebensalter auftreten kann. Sie ist durch eine Verengung der Bronchien gekennzeichnet, die im Zeitverlauf unterschiedlich stark ausgeprägt ist und u. a. mit pfeifender Atmung, Kurzatmigkeit oder Luftnot einhergehen kann. In der Studie GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS gaben insgesamt 6,2 % der Teilnehmenden ab 18 Jahren mit gültigen Angaben zum Indikator (n = 22.671) an, dass bei ihnen Asthma bronchiale in den letzten 12 Monaten bestand. Die 12-Monats-Prävalenz ist bei Frauen höher als bei Männern (7,1 % vs. 5,4 %). Insgesamt wird das Vorliegen eines Asthmas von Frauen und Männern in der unteren Bildungsgruppe häufiger angegeben als in höheren Bildungsgruppen. Alters- und geschlechtsspezifisch ist dabei ein deutlicher Unterschied bei Frauen unter 30 Jahren zu beobachten. Beim Bundeslandvergleich variiert die Asthma-Prävalenz zwischen 3,0 % – 9,7 % bei Frauen und 2,9 % – 7,0 % bei Männern.

Campylospermum

description: Campylospermum La très grande majorité des Curvovulées ou Campylospermées ont les feuilles munies de stipules intra-axillaires, comme on dit, concrescentes par leur bord interne, sur une plus ou moins grande longueur, en une lame bidentée ou bifide; plus éxactement, les feuilles y sont, non pas stipulées, mais ligulées. Une seule espèce, jusqu'à présent, fait exception à la règle; les feuilles y sont pourvues de deux stipules latérales et libres, et ces stipules sont étirées en longues soies roides, comme dans les Sétouratées. Chez les premières, l’inflorescence est une grappe composée à divers degrés et, suivant les espèces, diversement modifiée; chez la seconde, c'est une grappe simple. Chez les premières, le périderme est d’origine sous-épidermique, c’est-àdire exodermique; chez la seconde, il est d’origine épidermique. Et il y a d’autres différences. Celles-ci suffisent à montrer qu'il y a, ici aussi, deux genres à distinguer. Au premier, comprenant la prèsque totalité des espèces de l’Ancien Monde, je donnerai le nom de Campylosperme (Campylospermum), pour rappeler la courbure de l'ovule, de la graine et de l’embryon, qui en est le caractère différentiel le plus frappant par rapport au genre Ouratée, tel qu’on vient de le restreindre. Au second, réduit pour le moment à une seule espèce, originaire de l’Afrique occidentale, je donnerai le nom de Bisétaire (Bisetaria), pour rappeler l’indépendance et la forme des stipules, par où cette plante diffère aussitôt de toutes les autres espèces de l’Ancien Monde.

description: We consider the Laplacian with attractive Robin boundary conditions, \[ Q^Ω_αu=-Δu, \quad \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial n}=αu \text{ on } \partialΩ, \] in a class of bounded smooth domains $Ω\in\mathbb{R}^ν$; here $n$ is the outward unit normal and $α>0$ is a constant. We show that for each $j\in\mathbb{N}$ and $α\to+\infty$, the $j$th eigenvalue $E_j(Q^Ω_α)$ has the asymptotics \[ E_j(Q^Ω_α)=-α^2 -(ν-1)H_\mathrm{max}(Ω)\,α+{\mathcal O}(α^{2/3}), \] where $H_\mathrm{max}(Ω)$ is the maximum mean curvature at $\partial Ω$. The discussion of the reverse Faber-Krahn inequality gives rise to a new geometric problem concerning the minimization of $H_\mathrm{max}$. In particular, we show that the ball is the strict minimizer of $H_\mathrm{max}$ among the smooth star-shaped domains of a given volume, which leads to the following result: if $B$ is a ball and $Ω$ is any other star-shaped smooth domain of the same volume, then for any fixed $j\in\mathbb{N}$ we have $E_j(Q^B_α)>E_j(Q^Ω_α)$ for large $α$. An open question concerning a larger class of domains is formulated.

description: Die chronisch obstruktive Lungenerkrankung (COPD) geht mit einer hohen Krankheitslast einher und zählt weltweit zu den führenden Todesursachen. Neben anderen Einflussfaktoren stellt Tabakrauchen den wichtigsten veränderbaren Risikofaktor in Deutschland dar. In der Studie GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS wurde die 12-Monats-Prävalenz der bekannten COPD auf Grundlage eines europaweit konsentierten Indikators „selbstberichtete chronische Bronchitis, chronisch obstruktive Lungenerkrankung, Lungenemphysem“ untersucht. Bei Erwachsenen ab 18 Jahren mit gültigen Angaben zum Indikator (n = 22.702) ergibt sich eine 12-Monats-Prävalenz der bekannten COPD von insgesamt 5,8 % (5,8 % bei Frauen und 5,7 % bei Männern). Die 12-Monats-Prävalenz steigt bei beiden Geschlechtern mit dem Alter deutlich an. Insgesamt besteht die bekannte COPD bei Frauen und Männern in der unteren Bildungsgruppe häufiger als in höheren Bildungsgruppen. Zwischen den Bundesländern variiert die 12-Monats-Prävalenz zwischen 3,6 % – 7,5 % bei Frauen und 4,3 % – 11,2 % bei Männern.

Informationen zur Häufigkeit und Verteilung von depressiver Symptomatik in der Bevölkerung sind bedeutsam für die Planung von Prävention und Gesundheitsversorgung. In der Studie GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS wurde eine aktuelle depressive Symptomatik bei Erwachsenen in Deutschland mit dem Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-8) erhoben. Die Gesamtprävalenz von insgesamt 10,1 % belegt die weite Verbreitung von depressiver Symptomatik – auch jenseits des Vorliegens einer klinischen Depressionsdiagnose. Bei Frauen besteht eine depressive Symptomatik mit 11,6 % häufiger als bei Männern mit 8,6 %. Es zeigen sich weitere Unterschiede nach Alter und Bildungsstatus sowie regionale Unterschiede. Die Ergebnisse werden im Kontext der bisherigen Datenlage diskutiert.

description: We have studied the viability and possible patterns of a strong first-order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT) within the $Z_3$-symmetric Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), in view of the latest experimental results from the dark matter (DM) sector, Higgs sector and the searches of the lighter chargino and neutralinos at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We show that the region of parameter space with relatively small $μ_\mathrm{eff}$ that favors an SFOEWPT has started to get excluded from the searches at the LHC and various DM experiments. However, there still remain phenomenologically much involved and compatible regions for an SFOEWPT that are yet not sensitive to the latest LHC and DM searches. We further estimate the production of stochastic gravitational waves (GW) from an SFOEWPT within and without the bag model and the prospects of detecting such signals at various future/proposed GW experiments.

description: Gesundheitsbedingte Einschränkungen bei alltäglichen Aktivitäten beeinflussen Lebensqualität und persönliches Wohlbefinden. Der Global Activity Limitation Indicator (GALI) wurde entwickelt, um Trends in Aktivitätseinschränkungen im Zeitverlauf zu beobachten. Die GALI-Frage wird als ein- oder mehrstufige Variante verwendet. In der GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS-Befragung wurde sie erstmalig als dreistufige Frage eingesetzt. Insgesamt geben drei Viertel der Befragten an, keine Aktivitätseinschränkungen zu haben. 18,7 % der Frauen und 17,0 % der Männer sind in der Ausübung ihrer Alltagsaktivitäten mäßig eingeschränkt. Von einer starken Einschränkung berichten 6,4 % der Frauen und 6,8 % der Männer. Der Anteil der Befragten mit Einschränkungen steigt im Altersverlauf an und zeigt deutliche Unterschiede nach dem Bildungsstatus. Aufgrund der methodischen Veränderungen können die aktuellen Ergebnisse der GALI-Frage nicht mit den Resultaten aus früheren Befragungswellen derselben Studie verglichen werden.

description: The current study administered a self-report survey with behaviorally specific questions to a stratified sample of non-college educated women, aged 18 to 29, in the general population (N = 996). Notably, the women were classified as being trafficked as adults only (3.8%), minors only (9.6%), or as both adults and minors (9.3%) using the federal legal definition. More than 1 in 5 (22.7%) women in the sample met the criteria for sex trafficking victimization at some point in their lives. However, only 39.6% of the respondents who experienced trafficking as an adult reported these events to police—further contributing to the “hidden figure” of crime. Guided by victimological theories, vulnerabilities, individual characteristics, and lifestyle factors increased the odds of being trafficked but varied depending on the type of exploitation. The implications of these findings are reviewed, including the utility of studying trafficking using behaviorally worded self-report surveys.

description: Quantum algorithms are demonstrated to outperform classical algorithms for certain problems and thus are promising candidates for efficient information processing. Herein we aim to provide a brief and popular introduction to quantum algorithms for both the academic community and the general public with interest. We start from elucidating quantum parallelism, the basic framework of quantum algorithms and the difficulty of quantum algorithm design. Then we mainly focus on a historical overview of progress in quantum algorithm research over the past three to four decades. Finally, we clarify two common questions about the study of quantum algorithms, hoping to stimulate readers for further exploration.

description: Q-balls are non-topological solitonic solutions to a wide class of field theories that possess global symmetries. Here we show that in these same theories there also exists a tower of novel composite Q-ball solutions where, within one composite Q-ball, positive and negative charges co-exist and swap at a frequency lower than the natural frequency of an individual Q-ball. These charge-swapping Q-balls are constructed by assembling Q-balls and anti-Q-balls tightly such that their nonlinear cores overlap. We explain why charge-swapping Q-balls can form and why they swap charges.

NASA PACE User Personas

description: Utilizing a Design thinking-based approach, the NASA PACE Applications Program created a suite of user personas to better represent the diverse PACE user community and guide activities to meet users' data-related needs. That diversity reflects thematic focus, job type and goals, technical and resource capacity, and potential user constraints, needs, or priorities. The personas are based on a synthesis of qualitative and observational user research and were reviewed by the PACE community during focus sessions held in 2021 and 2022. Aspects of the persona descriptions [pain points and ideal experience] were co-defined with community members during those events. They are "living" profiles (some still incomplete) and continue to be iterated, edited, and expanded upon based on further research and user/community engagement.

In particular, a generalised Hopf formula for homology is obtained, allowing the choice of a new kind of functors as coefficients. This makes it possible to calculate the fundamental groups corresponding to many interesting reflections arising, for instance, in the categories of groups, rings, compact groups and simplicial loops.

The final charged-lepton (l^+) angular distribution is first computed for nonvanishing nonstandard top-gluon and top-W couplings with a cut on its transverse momentum. The optimal-observable procedure is then applied to this distribution in order to estimate the expected statistical uncertainties in measurements of those couplings that contribute to this process in the leading order.

description: Line-of-sight (LOS) wireless communication at terahertz (THz) frequency bands is envisioned to play a major role in defining next-generation wireless technologies. This work analyzes the performance of a potential LOS THz system experiencing propagation loss and misaligned antenna beams. The THz channel particularities are discussed in terms of deterministic path loss, molecular absorption effect and stochastic fading due to antenna pointing errors. Assuming phase shift keying (PSK) modulation schemes, simplified analytical expressions are approximated for computing symbol error rate (SER) of the proposed THz system. Monte Carlo simulations are applied to verify theoretical model accuracy over various transmission distances and misalignment scenarios. The derived SER formulas match simulation results for Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) above 35 dB at transmission distance up to 100 m and antenna displacement jitter variance of 0.05 $m^2$. In general, the theoretical model mismatch does not exceed 2 dB for lower SNR levels.

description: We investigate the possibility of an ultraviolet (UV) zero in the $n$-loop beta function of a $λ(\vecϕ^2)^2$ field theory with an $N$-component scalar field, $\vecϕ$, in four spacetime dimensions, up to the level of $n=5$ loops. Although the two-loop beta function has a UV zero, we find that the $n$-loop beta function for $n=3, \ 4, \ 5$ either does not have a UV zero or does not have one at a value of $λ$ in approximate agreement with the two-loop calculation. Similar results are obtained after application of scheme transformations to the beta function and via calculation of Padé approximants. We thus conclude that in the range of $λ$ where the perturbative calculation of the $n$-loop beta function is reliable, the theory does not exhibit robust evidence of a UV zero up to the level of $n=5$ loops.

Western society

description: Up until recently, contemporary Western society seemed to voluntarily ignore death, wrap-ping itself in a silent cocoon. Death disappeared from the public discourse unless it was spectacularised and mediatised. While ‘true’ death receded from individual lives, ‘fake’ death was omnipresent – widespread and thus anesthetising. After being one of the great taboos of our time, it is now becoming visible again. Three aspects, which can be framed as individual civil rights, have promoted this change: bioethics (which forced the public to ponder challenging topics), cultural pluralisation (which introduced novel ways of thinking and experiencing death) and a tendency towards the creation of institutions attentive to a new humanisation of death(e.g. pandemics give rise to pandethics, with the need to harmo-nize individual and community rights).We are perhaps at the beginning of a cultural turning point, though punctuated with many ambivalences and contradictions. To better understand it, we should look at its antecedents and at the history of the death-related imaginary in the West. We will consider Ariès (1975) schematization of four subsequent phases in societal attitude towards death and hypothesize the beginning of a fifth stage: death postponedbut also rediscovered (even if not yet truly reconciled).

description: Background: In the current political discourse, supply chain transparency is seen as a key to improving the working and environmental conditions within textile supply chains. Additionally, the use of technology is increasingly being regarded as a means of reducing complexity and increasing transparency within these supply chains. While much research has been conducted to understand the impact of the textile industry on sustainability and the impact of technology on the overall performance of the textile supply chains, little attention has been placed on the following question: How do technologies affect transparency within the textile supply chains? Methods: We conducted seven interviews with actors from the textile industry. Based on these collected data, the relevance of selected technologies for improving transparency is established and the challenges of their implementation and impact on the industry are assessed. Results: Digital technologies, such as blockchain, the Internet of Things and dialog platforms, are promising instruments for transparency, even though their current implementation is not ideal. Furthermore, great skepticism on platforms for reporting (audits and complaint systems) is still prevalent. Conclusions: Since the influence of transparency on sustainability is conditioned by the goal orientation with which the technologies are implemented and used, we propose a framework for the implementation of the selected technologies that account for the interaction between said technologies in the textile supply chains.

description: We present reactive gasdynamic, axisymmetric simulations of dense, high velocity clumps for modelling the CO streamers observed in Orion BN/KL. We have considered 15 chemical species, a cooling function for atomic and molecular gas, and heating through cosmic rays. Our numerical simulations explore different ejection velocities, interstellar medium density configurations, and CO content. Using the CO density and temperature, we have calculated the CO ($J=2\to1$) emissivity, and have built CO maps and spatially resolved line profiles, allowing us to see the CO emitting regions of the streamers and to obtain position velocity diagrams to compare with observations. We find that in order to reproduce the images and line profiles of the BN/KL CO streamers and H$_2$ fingers, we need to have clumps that first travel within a dense cloud core, and then emerge into a lower-density environment.

description: Health-relevant exposures to environmental pollutants, fungi, bacteria, noise, and air pollution have to be identified at an early stage. At the same time, impacts on health and their potential environmental causes need to be investigated and documented. The German Environmental Survey for Children and Adolescents 2014-2017 (GerES V) is the environmental module of KiGGS Wave 2 of the Robert Koch Institute and takes a deeper look at the sections living conditions and health status of the KiGGS study. GerES V collects up-to-date information on the exposure of children and adolescents in Germany aged 3 to 17 to chemicals and investigates chemical and physical environmental pollutants in their living environments. The survey contributes to identifying environmental hazards and measures that effectively reduce or prevent such hazards in order to protect and promote the health of the young generation.
Quantum Beam Scattering—Beam’s Coherence Length, Which-Path Information and Weak Values

subject: incoherent inelastic neutron scattering
subject: neutron Compton scattering
subject: plane-waves impulse approximation
subject: momentum-transfer deficit
subject: H-intensity deficit

description: The conventional theory of neutron beams interacting with many-body systems treats the beam as a classical system, i.e., with its dynamical variables appearing in the quantum dynamics of the scattering process not as operators but only as c-numbers. Moreover, neutrons are described with plane waves, i.e., the concept of a neutron’s (finite) coherence length is here irrelevant. The same holds for electron, atom or X-ray scattering. This simplification results in the full decoupling of the probe particle’s dynamics from the quantum dynamics of the scatterer—a well-known fact also reflected in the standard formalism of time-correlation functions (see textbooks). Making contact with modern quantum-theoretical approaches (e.g., quantum entanglement, “which-path information” versus interference, von Neumann measurement, Weak Values (WV), etc.), new observable effects of non-relativistic quantum beam scattering may be exposed and/or predicted, for instance, a momentum-transfer deficit and an intensity deficit in neutron scattering from protons of hydrogen-containing samples. A new WV-theoretical treatment is provided, which explains both these “deficit effects” from first principles and on equal footing.

description: We present here RICH, a state of the art 2D hydrodynamic code based on Godunov's method, on an unstructured moving mesh (the acronym stands for Racah Institute Computational Hydrodynamics). This code is largely based on the code AREPO. It differs from AREPO in the interpolation and time advancement scheme as well as a novel parallelization scheme based on Voronoi tessellation. Using our code we study the pros and cons of a moving mesh (in comparison to a static mesh). We also compare its accuracy to other codes. Specifically, we show that our implementation of external sources and time advancement scheme is more accurate and robust than AREPO's, when the mesh is allowed to move. We performed a parameter study of the cell rounding mechanism (Llyod iterations) and it effects. We find that in most cases a moving mesh gives better results than a static mesh, but it is not universally true. In the case where matter moves in one way, and a sound wave is traveling in the other way (such that relative to the grid the wave is not moving) a static mesh gives better results than a moving mesh. Moreover, we show that Voronoi based moving mesh schemes suffer from an error, that is resolution independent, due to inconsistencies between the flux calculation and change in the area of a cell. Our code is publicly available as open source and designed in an object oriented, user friendly way that facilitates incorporation of new algorithms and physical processes.
WOCS 4540: Detailed Analysis of a Very Long Orbital Period Blue Straggler

description: WOCS 4540 is the longest orbital period ($P_{\rm orb}=3030$ days) blue straggler (BSS) - white dwarf (WD) pair in the old open cluster NGC 188 . It also contains one of the most luminous BSS in the cluster. Prior \textit{Hubble Space Telescope} COS spectroscopy measured a WD mass of 0.53 $M_{\odot}$, indicative of a carbon-oxygen WD and suggesting previous mass transfer from an asymptotic branch giant (AGB). Detailed modeling of the system evolution, including red giant branch phase wind mass transfer, AGB wind Roche-lobe overflow and regular Roche-lobe overflow, is done with Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics. The best-fit model produces excellent agreement with a wide array of observational constraints on the BSS, the WD and the binary system. To produce the observed luminosity and effective temperature of the BSS, all three donor mass-transfer mechanisms contribute similarly to build a 1.5 $M_{\odot}$ BSS. The overall mass-transfer efficiency is 55%. Regular Roche-lobe overflow occurs only during the largest AGB thermal pulse, but yields a very high accretion rate at 75% efficiency and briefly (less than 1 Myr) a very high luminosity boost from the accretor.

The Dynamics of Liquid Drops Coalescing in the Inertial Regime

description: We examine the dynamics of two coalescing liquid drops in the `inertial regime', where the effects of viscosity are negligible and the propagation of the bridge front connecting the drops can be considered as `local'. The solution fully computed in the framework of classical fluid-mechanics allows this regime to be identified and the accuracy of the approximating scaling laws proposed to describe the propagation of the bridge to be established. It is shown that the scaling law known for this regime has a very limited region of accuracy and, as a result, in describing experimental data it has frequently been applied outside its limits of applicability. The origin of the scaling law's shortcoming appears to be the fact that it accounts for the capillary pressure due only to the longitudinal curvature of the free surface as the driving force for the process. To address this deficiency, the scaling law is extended to account for both the longitudinal and azimuthal curvatures at the bridge front which, fortuitously, still results in an explicit analytic expression for the front's propagation speed. This new expression is then shown to offer an excellent approximation for both the fully-computed solution and for experimental data from a range of flow configurations for a remarkably large proportion of the coalescence process. The derived formula allows one to predict the speed at which drops coalesce for the duration of the inertial regime which should be useful for the analysis of experimental data.

description: Initially, the Motorik-Module (MoMo) Longitudinal Study was surveyed between 2003 and 2006 using a sub-sample from the baseline German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS). The federal representative sub-sample of KiGGS consisted of 4,528 children and adolescents aged 4 to 17. To date, there have been two further survey waves: 2009-2012 (Wave 1) and 2015-2017 (Wave 2). MoMo Wave 2 consists of motor performance tests, anthropometric measurements, questionnaire-based information collection on activity habits and motion sensor data. Initial results of MoMo Wave 2 will be published in the second half of 2018. The total size of the Wave 2 sample is estimated to reach 5,200 participants. As its central goal, the MoMo longitudinal survey aims to contribute towards the long-term improvement of child and adolescent health in Germany. A focus will be on developmental (age-related) and periodic (over time) trends in motor performance and physical activity, underlying factors and the impacts on physical and mental health in the development of children and adolescents.

description: We fit the (quasi-)simultaneous multi-waveband spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for a sample of low-synchrotron-peaked (LSP) blazars with a one-zone leptonic model. The seed photons that predominantly come from broad line region (BLR) and infrared (IR) molecular torus are considered respectively in external Compton process. We find that the modeling with IR seed photons is systematically better than that with BLR photons based on a $χ^2$ test, which suggest that $γ$-ray emitting region most possibly stay outside the BLR. The minimum electron Lorentz factor, $γ_{\rm min}$, is constrained from the modeling for these LSP blazars with good soft X-ray data (ranges from 5 to 160 with a median value of 55), which plays a key role in jet power estimation. Assuming one-to-one ratio of proton and electron, we find that the jet power for LSP blazars is systematically higher than that of FR II radio galaxies at given 151 MHz radio luminosity, $L_{\rm 151MHz}$, even though FR IIs are regarded as same as LSP blazars in unification scheme except the jet viewing angle. The possible reason is that there are some $e^{\pm}$ pairs in the jet of these blazars. If this is the case, we find the number density of $e^{\pm}$ pairs should be several times higher than that of $e^{-}-p$ pairs by assuming the jet power is the same for LSP blazars and FR IIs at given $L_{\rm 151MHz}$.
