description: We present the high-energy-neutrino follow-up observations of the first gravitational wave transient GW150914 observed by the Advanced LIGO detectors on September 14, 2015. We search for coincident neutrino candidates within the data recorded by the IceCube and Antares neutrino detectors. A possible joint detection could be used in targeted electromagnetic follow-up observations, given the significantly better angular resolution of neutrino events compared to gravitational waves. We find no neutrino candidates in both temporal and spatial coincidence with the gravitational wave event. Within ±500 s of the gravitational wave event, the number of neutrino candidates detected by IceCube and Antares were three and zero, respectively. This is consistent with the expected atmospheric background, and none of the neutrino candidates were directionally coincident with GW150914. We use this nondetection to constrain neutrino emission from the gravitational-wave event. © 2016 The American Physical Society

description: Ultracold gases of interacting spin-orbit coupled fermions are predicted to display exotic phenomena such as topological superfluidity and its associated Majorana fermions. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a route to strongly-interacting single-component atomic Fermi gases by combining an s-wave Feshbach resonance (giving strong interactions) and spin-orbit coupling (creating an effective p-wave channel). We identify the Feshbach resonance by its associated atomic loss feature and show that, in agreement with our single-channel scattering model, this feature is preserved and shifted as a function of the spin-orbit coupling parameters.

EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN VERB RETRIEVAL, AGRAMMATISM AND PAUSES

Subjects: subject: Speech therapy

description: Persons with agrammatic aphasia (a symptom of Broca’s aphasia) tend to speak at a slow rate compared to neurotypical adults and to other aphasia subtypes (Kertesz, 2007). This connection between slow rate and agrammatic aphasia is underexplored. This study examines three key variables impacting speech rate in agrammatic narratives: syntactic impairment (i.e., diagnosis of agrammatism), verb retrieval, and pauses. Specifically, forty-five narrative (Cinderella) samples (15 agrammatic aphasia, 15 anomic aphasia, and 15 controls) from AphasiaBank database (MacWinney et al., 2011) were converted into Praat TextGrids (Boersma & Weenink, 2023) with sound files, and the first five qualifying pre-verb pause durations were recorded. Additionally, the first five qualifiying pre-noun pauses were logged for comparison as well as the overall grammaticality of each targeted utterance. The results were that the number of pauses and pause duration differentiated persons with agrammatic aphasia from persons with anomic aphasia and neurotypical controls, yet verb retrieval and the syntactic well-formedness of an utterance did not significantly vary by aphasia type in utterances where verbs were successfully retrieved. Overall, this study did not lend support to the Synergistic Processing Bottleneck model for agrammatic aphasia (Faroqi-Shah, 2023).

description: We use Monte Carlo simulations to study multicritical properties of an Ising metamagnet in an external field. According to the mean field theory predictions, a three-dimensional layered metamagnet is expected to display a tricritical point decomposition to a critical endpoint and a bicritical endpoint, when a ratio between intralayer ferromagnetic and interlayer antiferromagnetic couplings becomes sufficiently small. Our simulations show no evidence of such a decomposition and produce a tricritical behaviour even for a coupling ratio as small as R=0.01.

Using LESLLA readers' miscues to inform pedagogical practice

Year: 2023

description: LESLLA practitioners worldwide assist with emergent print literacy development of the L2 adults in their classrooms, yet research on adult emergent literacy, including the stages of emergent reading development in the adult L2 context, is still relatively unexplored. This 12-month study tracked 2 female LESLLA learners who had advanced to a Beginning High ESL class at their school. During weekly literacy intervention sessions, the participants read aloud level-appropriate text without any prior scaffolding, to showcase how they decoded text independently. Leveraging miscue analysis, audiorecordings were transcribed, with miscues further transcribed phonetically (using IPA). Preliminary results showcase nearly a dozen types of miscues, including eliminating/inserting/ transposing/deleting phonemes, articulating semantically-similar or visually-similar words, articulating the wrong word form, confusing voiced/voiceless consonant sounds, and only correctly articulating the first few phonemes. Despite two different L1s, the learners both demonstrated common processing problems. Implications discuss suggestions for classroom instruction for higher-level LESLLA learners.

description: Recent advances in sequencing technology allow data on the human genome to be generated more quickly and in greater detail than ever before. Such detail includes findings that may be of significance to the health of the research participant involved. Although research studies generally do not feed back information on clinically significant findings (CSFs) to participants, this stance is increasingly being questioned. There may be difficulties and risks in feeding clinically significant information back to research participants, however, the UK10K consortium sought to address these by creating a detailed management pathway. This was not intended to create any obligation upon the researchers to feed back any CSFs they discovered. Instead, it provides a mechanism to ensure that any such findings can be passed on to the participant where appropriate. This paper describes this mechanism and the specific criteria, which must be fulfilled in order for a finding and participant to qualify for feedback. This mechanism could be used by future research consortia, and may also assist in the development of sound principles for dealing with CSFs. © 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved.

description: We present a set of hydro-dynamical numerical simulations of the Antennae galaxies in order to understand the origin of the central overlap starburst. Our dynamical model provides a good match to the observed nuclear and overlap star formation, especially when using a range of rather inefficient stellar feedback efficiencies (0.01 < q_EoS < 0.1). In this case a simple conversion of local star formation to molecular hydrogen surface density motivated by observations accounts well for the observed distribution of CO. Using radiative transfer post-processing we model synthetic far-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and two-dimensional emission maps for direct comparison with Herschel-PACS observations. For a gas-to-dust ratio of 62:1 and the best matching range of stellar feedback efficiencies the synthetic far-infrared SEDs of the central star forming region peak at values of ~65 - 81 Jy at 99 - 116 um, similar to a three-component modified black body fit to infrared observations. Also the spatial distribution of the far-infrared emission at 70 um, 100 um, and 160 um compares well with the observations: >50% (> 35%) of the emission in each band is concentrated in the overlap region while only < 30% (< 15%) is distributed to the combined emission from the two galactic nuclei in the simulations (observations). As a proof of principle we show that parameter variations in the feedback model result in unambiguous changes both in the global and in the spatially resolved observable far-infrared properties of Antennae galaxy models. Our results strengthen the importance of direct, spatially resolved comparative studies of matched galaxy merger simulations as a valuable tool to constrain the fundamental star formation and feedback physics.

description: The paintings of the renowned artist Wifredo Lam (1902-1982) are sites for the intersection of modernism and multiculturalism. Inspired in part by Lam’s citations of African influence, many modern art historians consider Lam in terms of his engagements with syncretic Afro-diasporic religious practices in the Black Atlantic world, such as Santería in Cuba and Vodun in Haiti. However, scholars have not adequately explored his relationship to the Asian diaspora. Lam’s unique identity as a product of the Chinese diaspora remains greatly understudied. While most analyses mention Lam’s Chinese ancestry solely in terms of his biography, this thesis examines the artist’s production in the early 1940s from the perspective of his formalist, familial, and conceptual Chinese influences. More specifically, I highlight details from his landmark 1942 painting The Jungle that explicitly depend upon Chinese calligraphy, hieroglyphics, and historical events. Using documentation from Lam’s closest companions, artist interviews, biographies, and visual analysis, I underscore connections between his painting techniques and his Chinese spiritual practice derived from the I-Ching. Taken together with his brushwork and symbolism, Lam’s work invites us to look more closely at the influence of Chinese culture throughout his career.

description: The acoustic dispersion of plasmons (PLs) in narrow (4 nm) and ultrathin (one unit cell) metallic DySi2 wires, grown by self-assembly on vicinal Si(100)-[011] 4° turns out to be unidirectional. We observed the lowest intersubband PL as well as the acoustic PL. These PLs are specific for narrow metallic strips of finite width. Our experimental and theoretical analysis suggests that only one of two electron pockets in the surface Brillouin zone makes a substantial contribution to the PLs because the other pocket has a much smaller conductive character due to a strong admixture of electronic states with d character. © 2010 The American Physical Society.

description: Isocurvature perturbations in the inflationary literature typically involve quantum fluctuations of bosonic field degrees of freedom. In this work, we consider isocurvature perturbations from fermionic quantum fluctuations during inflation. When a stable massive fermion is coupled to a non-conformal sector different from the scalar metric perturbations, observably large amplitude scale invariant isocurvature perturbations can be generated. In addition to the computation of the isocurvature two-point function, an estimate of the local non-Gaussianities is also given and found to be promising for observations in a corner of the parameter space. The results provide a new class of cosmological probes for theories with stable massive fermions. On the technical side, we explicitly renormalize the composite operator in curved spacetime and show that gravitational Ward identities play an important role in suppressing certain contributions to the fermionic isocurvature perturbations.

description: The hypothesis that nuclear motion can be described classically has been tested for several critical systems. We investigate the inversion of ammonia and the heat capacities of water and hydrogen. We use conventional ab initio molecular dynamics, which describes nuclear motion classically and the electron cloud using density functional theory. Ammonia inversion is described perfectly by the tunneling of the p orbital through the molecular plane. Nuclear tunneling is not needed to describe this phenomenon. While the investigation of heat capacities is hampered by the brief simulation times and limited system sizes, we can nevertheless make some qualitative statements. Indeed, the heat capacity can be frozen out in molecular dynamics simulations of solids, and hence, a quantized description is not required. © 2019 The Authors.

description: This paper develops methodology that provides a toolbox for routinely fitting complex models to realistic spatial point pattern data. We consider models that are based on log-Gaussian Cox processes and include local interaction in these by considering constructed covariates. This enables us to use integrated nested Laplace approximation and to considerably speed up the inferential task. In addition, methods for model comparison and model assessment facilitate the modelling process. The performance of the approach is assessed in a simulation study. To demonstrate the versatility of the approach, models are fitted to two rather different examples, a large rainforest data set with covariates and a point pattern with multiple marks.

description: We study K-type asteroids in the broad surroundings of the Eos family because they seem to be intimately related, according to their colours measured by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Such `halos' of asteroid families have been rarely used as constraints for dynamical studies to date. We explain its origin as bodies escaping from the family `core' due to the Yarkovsky semimajor-axis drift and interactions with gravitational resonances, mostly with the 9/4 mean-motion resonance with Jupiter at 3.03 AU. Our N-body dynamical model allows us to independently estimate the age of the family 1.5 to 1.9 Gyr. This is approximately in agreement with the previous age estimate by Vokrouhlický et al. (2006) based on a simplified model (which accounts only for changes of semimajor axis). We can also constrain the geometry of the disruption event which had to occur at the true anomaly f =~ 120 to 180 deg.

Momentum-independent reflectionless transmission in the non-Hermitian time-reversal symmetric system

description: We theoretically study the non-Hermitian systems, the non-Hermiticity of which arises from the unequal hopping amplitude (UHA) dimers. The distinguishing features of these models are that they have full real spectra if all of the eigenvectors are time-reversal (T) symmetric rather than parity-time-reversal (PT) symmetric, and that their Hermitian counterparts are shown to be an experimentally accessible system, which have the same topological structures as that of the original ones but modulated hopping amplitudes within the unbroken region. Under the reflectionless transmission condition, the scattering behavior of momentum-independent reflectionless transmission (RT) can be achieved in the concerned non-Hermitian system. This peculiar feature indicates that, for a certain class of non-Hermitian systems with a balanced combination of the RT dimers, the defects can appear fully invisible to an outside observer.

description: This work focuses on an in-depth investigation of the formation of pores in the structure of lightweight geopolymer cements and mortars using rice husk as a foaming agent. The hardener used in this study was sodium waterglass. Metakaolin was replaced by 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 % by mass of husk and the obtained powders were used to produce lightweight geopolymer cements and mortars. The formation of pores in the lightweight geopolymer cements was monitored using X-ray diffractometry and infrared spectroscopy while those in the mortars were assessed using apparent density and compressive strength measurements, mercury intrusion porosimetry and optical and scanning electron microscopy. The values for the compressive strength and apparent density were in the ranges of 28.92–0.75 MPa and 1.88–1.70 g/cm 3 , respectively. The results indicated that the values for the compressive strength and apparent density of geopolymer mortars decreased while those of the cumulative pore volume increased with increases in the metakaolin replacement level. Stereomicroscopic and scanning electron microscopic images showed the presence of rice husk and fibres of rice husk, respectively, in the networks. It was found that rice husk can be used as a foaming agent for producing sustainable lightweight geopolymer mortars. © 2019, © 2019 The Author(s).

description: Isosorbide is considered a versatile biogenic platform compound for the production of chemicals. The functionalization of its two hydroxyl groups is challenging since they exhibit a different configuration and thus, different reactivity as well as sterical accessibility. We investigated the formation of the respective tert-butyl ethers by an addition reaction of isosorbide to isobutene heterogeneously catalyzed by acidic ion exchange resins. An efficient liquid phase process under ambient conditions in a batch reactor has been developed. The reaction network was unravelled by detailed investigation of the reaction kinetics. Additionally, the feasibility of continuous processing was successfully demonstrated on the lab-scale applying a continuously stirred-tank reactor.

description: We consider a non-autonomous dynamical system formed by coupling two piecewise-smooth systems in $\RR^2$ through a non-autonomous periodic perturbation. We study the dynamics around one of the heteroclinic orbits of one of the piecewise-smooth systems. In the unperturbed case, the system possesses two $C^0$ normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds of dimension two with a couple of three dimensional heteroclinic manifolds between them. These heteroclinic manifolds are foliated by heteroclinic connections between $C^0$ tori located at the same energy levels. By means of the {\em impact map} we prove the persistence of these objects under perturbation. In addition, we provide sufficient conditions of the existence of transversal heteroclinic intersections through the existence of simple zeros of Melnikov-like functions. The heteroclinic manifolds allow us to define the {\em scattering map}, which links asymptotic dynamics in the invariant manifolds through heteroclinic connections. First order properties of this map provide sufficient conditions for the asymptotic dynamics to be located in different energy levels in the perturbed invariant manifolds. Hence we have an essential tool for the construction of a heteroclinic skeleton which, when followed, can lead to the existence of Arnol'd diffusion: trajectories that, on large time scales, destabilize the system by further accumulating energy. We validate all the theoretical results with detailed numerical computations of a mechanical system with impacts, formed by the linkage of two rocking blocks with a spring.

description: Tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) are highly desirable targets for cancer immunotherapy. However, current clinical studies have predominantly focused on neoantigens present in exon regions, while the limited number of TSAs identified from coding regions has impeded the development and application of immunotherapy. Here, we developed a proteogenomic approach that integrates multi-omics data from the whole genome, transcriptome, and immunopeptidome to globally discover TSAs.

Exact solutions and particle creation for nonconformal scalar fields in homogeneous isotropic cosmological models
Creators: name: Pavlov, Yu. V.

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The problem is solved of describing scale factors of a homogeneous isotropic spaces-time such that the exact solution for the scalar field with a nonconformal coupling to curvature can be obtained from solutions for the conformally coupled field by redefining the mass and momentum. Explicit expressions for dependence of time from the large-scale factor are presented in the form of Abelian integrals in these cases. The exact solution for a scalar field with Gauss-Bonnet type coupling with curvature is received and it is shown that the corresponding nonconformal additions can dominate at the particles creation by gravitational field.

description: We investigate the nature of the phase transition for charged scalars in the presence of a magnetic background for a theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking. We perform a careful treatment of the negative mass squared as a function of the order parameter and present a suitable method to obtain magnetic and thermal corrections up to ring order for the high temperature limit and the case where the magnetic field strength is larger than the absolute value of the square of the mass parameter. We show that for a given value of the self-coupling, the phase transition is first order for a small magnetic field strength and becomes second order as this last grows. We also show that the critical temperature in the presence of the magnetic field is always below the critical temperature for the case where the field is absent.

description: The housing question is a topic of increasing concern in a number of European cities. Rising housing costs burden many households. Since the outbreak of the global economic crisis in 2008, housing has increasingly come under spotlight of investors. Institutional and private actors invest in real estate not only in metropolitan areas but also in middle and small-sized towns. Tourism-induced demand increases the pressure on housing markets particularly in tourist-dominated cities. The manifestation of these processes varies on a small scale and is influenced by regional-local planning and politics. Based on the example of the city of Salzburg, the article shows that the housing question manifests itself strongly aside metropolises as well. Financial investments by private and institutional actors in real estate and different forms of tourism demand exacerbate the housing shortage. By linking the discussions about the effects of (mass-)tourism and financial investments on regional housing markets, this paper provides additional insights. The additional demand for (residential) space by tourism is used to increase or secure the return on investments in real estate. Financial investments in housing offer additional (problematic) potential for tourist use, such as short-term rentals. Owners benefit from both processes. Due to the prevalent power relations, planning and politics have little to counter the current challenges. © 2019 Copernicus. All rights reserved.
Facilitating radar precipitation data processing, assessment and analysis: A GIS-compatible python approach

description: A review of existing tools for radar data processing revealed a lack of open source software for automated processing, assessment and analysis of weather radar composites. The ArcGIS-compatible Python package radproc attempts to reduce this gap. Radproc provides an automated raw data processing workflow for nationwide, freely available German weather radar climatology (RADKLIM) and operational (RADOLAN) composite products. Raw data are converted into a uniform HDF5 file structure used by radproc’s analysis and data quality assessment functions. This enables transferability of the developed analysis and export functionality to other gridded or point-scale precipitation data. Thus, radproc can be extended by additional import routines to support any other German or non-German precipitation dataset. Analysis methods include temporal aggregations, detection of heavy rainfall and an automated processing of rain gauge point data into the same HDF5 format for comparison to gridded radar data. A set of functions for data exchange with ArcGIS allows for visualisation and further geospatial analysis. The application on a 17-year time series of hourly RADKLIM data showed that radproc greatly facilitates radar data processing and analysis by avoiding manual programming work and helps to lower the barrier for non-specialists to work with these novel radar climatology datasets. © 2019 The Authors
