description: The (001) surfaces of cleaved Sr$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ and Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ samples were investigated using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory calculations. Intrinsic defects are not created during cleaving. This experimental observation is consistent with calculations, where the formation energy for a Sr and O vacancy, 4.19 eV and 3.81 eV, respectively, is significantly larger than that required to cleave the crystal, 1.11 eV/(1 $\times$ 1) unit cell. Surface oxygen vacancies can be created through electron bombardment, however, and their appearance is shown to vary strongly with the imaging conditions. Point defects observed on as-cleaved surfaces result from bulk impurities and adsorption from the residual gas.

description: Realizing and characterizing interacting topological phases in synthetic quantum systems is a formidable challenge. Here, we propose a Floquet protocol to realize the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with power-law decaying interactions. Based on analytical and numerical arguments, we show that this model features a quantum phase transition from a liquid to a valence bond solid that spontaneously breaks lattice translational symmetry and is reminiscent of the Majumdar-Ghosh state. The different phases can be probed dynamically by measuring the evolution of a fully dimerized state. We moreover introduce an interferometric protocol to characterize the topological excitations and the bulk topological invariants of the interacting many-body system.

description: Additional file 8: Figure S7. Validation of normalization strategies. For determining the best normalization strategy, the gene expression of IL-6 in terms of fold change is studied by comparing the normalization of IL-6 to the geometric mean of two groups (i) three most stable gene (ACTB_GAPDH_HPRT) and (ii) three least stable genes (B2M_COX_HMBS). Results are expressed as mean fold change and statistical significance was estimated using Shapiro–Wilk’s test. Different fold changes within the same target gene thus obtained are due to the different normalization strategies only. Here asterisks indicate p

description: We prove that any minimal Lagrangian diffeomorphism between two closed spherical surfaces with cone singularities is an isometry, without any assumption on the multiangles of the two surfaces. As an application, we show that every branched immersion of a closed surface of constant positive Gaussian curvature in Euclidean three-space is a branched covering onto a round sphere, thus generalizing the classical rigidity theorem of Liebmann to branched immersions.

description: The triple gluon field strength operator $G^3$ represents the only genuinely gluonic CP conserving term which can appear at dimension-6 within an effective strong interaction Lagrangian. Previous studies of this operator have revealed that its effect on gluon scattering is surprisingly difficult to detect. In this article, we analyze the impact of $G^3$ upon top quark pair production. We find that it will generate observable cross section deviations from QCD at the LHC for even relatively small values of its coefficient. Furthermore, $G^3$ affects the transverse momentum distribution of the produced top quarks more strongly at high energies than dimension-6 four-quark and chromomagnetic moment terms in the effective Lagrangian. Top-antitop production at the LHC will therefore provide a sensitive and clean probe for the elusive triple gluon field strength operator.

description: Conventional algorithms for polygon rasterization are typically designed to maintain non-topological characteristics. Consequently, topological relationships, such as the adjacency between polygons, may also be lost or altered, creating topological errors. This paper proposes a topology-preserving polygon rasterization algorithm to avoid topological errors. Four types of topological error may occur during polygon rasterization. The algorithm starts from an initial polygon rasterization and uses a set of preserving strategies to increase topological accuracy. The count of the four types of error measures the topological errors of the conversion. Topological accuracy is summarized as 1 minus the ratio of actual topological errors to the total number of possible error cases. When applied to a land-use dataset with a data volume of 128 MB, 127,836 polygons, and extending 1352 km2, the algorithm achieves a topological accuracy of more than 99% when raster cell size is 30 m or smaller (100% for 5 and 10 m). The effects of cell size, polygon shape, and number of iterations on topological accuracy are also examined.

description: Contextually Guided Convolutional Neural Networks (CG-CNNs) employ self-supervision and contextual information to develop transferable features across diverse domains, including visual, tactile, temporal, and textual data. This work showcases the adaptability of CG-CNNs through applications to various datasets such as Caltech and Brodatz textures, the VibTac-12 tactile dataset, hyperspectral images, and challenges like the XOR problem and text analysis. In text analysis, CG-CNN employs an innovative embedding strategy that utilizes the context of neighboring words for classification, while in visual and signal data, it enhances feature extraction by exploiting spatial information. CG-CNN mimics the context-guided unsupervised learning mechanisms of biological neural networks and it can be trained to learn its features on limited-size datasets. Our experimental results on natural images reveal that CG-CNN outperforms comparable first-layer features of well-known deep networks such as AlexNet, ResNet, and GoogLeNet in terms of transferability and classification accuracy. In text analysis, CG-CNN learns word embeddings that outperform traditional models like Word2Vec in tasks such as the 20 Newsgroups text classification. Furthermore, ongoing development involves training CG-CNN on outputs from another CG-CNN to explore multi-layered architectures, aiming to construct more complex and descriptive features. This scalability and adaptability to various data types underscore the potential of CG-CNN to handle a wide range of applications, making it a promising architecture for tackling diverse data representation challenges.

The ten sources had typical r' magnitudes of 19-20, except for one extremely red object with r' of approximately 23. The data, obtained with exposure times between 10 and 25 minutes, reveal that the spectra of four candidates are essentially featureless and are not quasars, five are quasars with redshifts between 2.92 and 4.15 (including one Broad Absorption Line quasar), and the red source is a very late M

title: Why Do People Demand Rent Control?
Creators: name: Müller, Daniel
name: Gsottbauer, Elisabeth
Publisher: name: Universitätsbibliothek der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München
Year: 2021

description: We conduct a representative survey experiment in Germany to understand why people support inefficient policies. In particular, we measure beliefs about and preferences for rent control – a policy that is widely regarded as harmful by experts. To tease out causal mechanisms, we provide randomly selected subsets of participants with empirical estimates about the effects of rent control on rent prices and housing supply and with information about the consensus among economists against rent control. We find that people update their beliefs and that this leads to lower demand for rent control. Left-wingers update their beliefs more strongly, which reduces the ideological gap in support for rent control by about one-third. Providing information about economists’ rejection of this policy leads to the largest reduction in support. However, the main drivers of support for rent control are fairness considerations and profit motives. Our study also highlights the importance of trust in expert advice since treatment effects are consistently larger among those who indicate trust in expert advice. Finally, an obfuscated follow-up survey conducted three weeks later reveals that the effects, both on support for rent control and on beliefs, persist only for those who trust.

description: This letter proposes two finite-time bearing-based control laws for acyclic leader-follower formations. The leaders in formation move with a bounded continuous reference velocity and each follower controls its position with regard to three agents in the formation. The first control law uses only bearing vectors, and finite-time convergence is achieved by properly selecting two state-dependent control gains. The second control law requires both bearing vectors and communications between agents. Each agent simultaneously localizes and follows a virtual target. Finite-time convergence of the desired formation under both control laws is proved by mathematical induction and supported by numerical simulations. 10.1109/LCSYS.2021.3088299

We describe the geodesics, the totally geodesic submanifolds, the horospheres, the isometry group in the half-space model, and we explain how to interpret the boundary at infinity in this setting.

description: A moderately intense $450$ fs laser pulse is used to create rotational wave packets in gas phase $\rm{I_2}$ molecules. The ensuing time-dependent alignment, measured by Coulomb explosion imaging with a delayed probe pulse, exhibits the characteristic revival structures expected for rotational wave packets but also a complex non-periodic substructure and decreasing mean alignment not observed before. A quantum mechanical model attributes the phenomena to coupling between the rotational angular momenta and the nuclear spins through the electric quadrupole interaction. The calculated alignment trace agrees very well with the experimental results.

description: In a multi-source environment, each source has its own credibility. If there is no external knowledge about credibility then we can use the information provided by the sources to assess their credibility. In this paper, we propose a way to measure conflict in a multi-source environment as a normal measure. We examine our algorithm using three simulated examples of increasing conflict and one experimental example. The results demonstrate that the proposed measure can represent conflict in a meaningful way similar to what a human might expect and from it we can identify conflict within our sources.

description: We analyze PLANET collaboration data for MACHO 97-BLG-41, the only microlensing event observed to date in which the source transits two disjoint caustics. The PLANET data, consisting of 46 V-band and 325 I-band observations from five southern observatories, span a period from the initial alert until the end of the event. Our data are incompatible with a static binary lens, but are well fit by a rotating binary lens of mass ratio q=0.34 and angular separation d ~ 0.5 (in units of the Einstein ring radius) in which the binary separation changes in size by delta d = -0.070 +/- 0.009 and in orientation by delta theta = (5.61 +/- 0.36) degrees during the 35.17 days between the separate caustic transits. We use this measurement combined with other observational constraints to derive the first kinematic estimate of the mass, distance, and period of a binary microlens. The relative probability distributions for these parameters peak at a total lens mass M ~ 0.3 solar masses (M-dwarf binary system), lens distance D_L ~ 5.5 kpc, and binary period P ~ 1.5 yr. The robustness of our model is demonstrated by its striking agreement with MACHO/GMAN data that cover several sharp features in the light curve not probed by the PLANET observations, and which did not enter our modeling procedure in any way. Available data sets thus indicate that the light curve of MACHO 97-BLG-41 can be modeled as a source crossing two caustics of a physically-realistic rotating binary so that, contrary to a recent suggestion, the additional effects of a postulated planetary companion to the binary lens are not required.

description: Making computer-generated (CG) images more difficult to detect is an interesting problem in computer graphics and security. While most approaches focus on the image rendering phase, this paper presents a method based on increasing the naturalness of CG facial images from the perspective of spoofing detectors. The proposed method is implemented using a convolutional neural network (CNN) comprising two autoencoders and a transformer and is trained using a black-box discriminator without gradient information. Over 50% of the transformed CG images were not detected by three state-of-the-art spoofing detectors. This capability raises an alarm regarding the reliability of facial authentication systems, which are becoming widely used in daily life.

description: This thesis examines a program of reform that was directed at the gentlemanly philanthropists of London’s first two university settlements, Toynbee Hall and Oxford House. Shifting the focus of previous scholarship on the role of the settlements in promoting moral and cultural improvement amongst East London’s poor, this study analyses the ways in which Toynbee Hall and Oxford House also sought to shape the social reformers who came to live and work in the urban slums. Residency in London’s East End was intended to be a transformative experience that could regenerate Oxbridge men and their West End counterparts, while also providing opportunities and networks for personal development and career advancement. Both Toynbee Hall and Oxford House embraced a two-fold agenda. This included a systematic effort to elevate the urban poor and to redress social problems in surrounding neighbourhoods, and a more introspective program that was concerned with the improvement or advancement of the ‘settlers’ themselves. While mainstream historiography on these settlements has focused primarily on their attempts to study, transform and ‘improve’ East End communities, this study shifts attention away from the campaign aimed directly at the poor in order to explore the ‘making’ of the social reformer as it occurred within these institutions. This component of the settlements’ mission was widely recognised during the era of their creation. Popular representations of Toynbee Hall and Oxford House as ‘settlements’, ‘colonies’ or ‘labour refuges’ for gentlemen drew upon reformist discourses and practices that were typically directed at the urban poor and colonial subjects during this period. The labour colony was advocated in philanthropic circles as a training centre where the unemployed could reside and receive practical education and moral guidance before finding work in Britain or abroad. Drawing upon the image of a labour colony, this thesis argues that Toynbee Hall and Oxford House settlers became the subjects of a parallel educational and vocational project, though the nature of that project varied between the settlements in ways that reflected differences between the ethos of each institution. The chapters that follow consider the settlements as sites for the cultivation, training and networking of gentlemen. This thesis, unlike much of the historiography upon this topic, does not cast Toynbee Hall and Oxford House men primarily as agents of reform. It treats them as the targets of a settlement program. The task of producing social reformers may appear at first glance to be an auxiliary aspect of the settlement houses, but it was inextricably linked both to the goal of redressing problems in the East End and to a wider project designed to form a new generation of leaders and bureaucrats for Britain and its empire.

description: We predict dominating cooperative two-photon emission from two quantum dots coupled with a single mode photonic crystal cavity. The cooperative two photon emission occurs when excitons in two off-resonantly coupled quantum dots decay simultaneously. The interaction with common cavity field leads to cavity induced two-photon emission which is strongly inhibited by electron phonon coupling. The interaction with common phonon bath produces phonon induced two-photon emission which increases on increasing temperature. For identical quantum dots cavity induced two-photon emission is negligible but phonon induced two-photon emission could be large.

description: An ensuing challenge in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the perceived difficulty in interpreting sophisticated machine learning models, whose ever-increasing complexity makes it hard for such models to be understood, trusted and thus accepted by human beings. The lack, if not complete absence, of interpretability for these so-called black-box models can lead to serious economic and ethical consequences, thereby hindering the development and deployment of AI in wider fields, particularly in those involving critical and regulatory applications. Yet, the building services industry is a highly-regulated domain requiring transparency and decision-making processes that can be understood and trusted by humans. To this end, the design and implementation of autonomous Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning systems for the automatic but concurrently interpretable optimisation of energy efficiency and room thermal comfort is of topical interest. This work therefore presents an interpretable machine learning model aimed at predicting room temperature in non-domestic buildings, for the purpose of optimising the use of the installed HVAC system. We demonstrate experimentally that the proposed model can accurately forecast room temperatures eight hours ahead in real-time by taking into account historical RT information, as well as additional environmental and time-series features. In this paper, an enhanced feature engineering process is conducted based on the Exploratory Data Analysis results. Furthermore, beyond the commonly used Interpretable Machine Learning techniques, we propose a Permutation Feature-based Frequency Response Analysis (PF-FRA) method for quantifying the contributions of the different predictors in the frequency domain. Based on the generated reason codes, we find that the historical RT feature is the dominant factor that has most impact on the model prediction.

description: We obtained deep Gemini GMOS-S $g,r$ photometry of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidate Cetus II with the aim of providing stronger constraints on its size, luminosity and stellar population. Cetus II is an important object in the size-luminosity plane as it occupies the transition zone between dwarf galaxies and star clusters. All known objects smaller than Cetus II ($r_h \sim 20$ pc) are reported to be star clusters, while most larger objects are likely dwarf galaxies. We found a prominent excess of main-sequence stars in the colour-magnitude diagram of Cetus II, best described by a single stellar population with an age of 11.2 Gyr, metallicity of [Fe/H] = $-1.28$ dex, an [$α$/Fe] = 0.0 dex at a heliocentric distance of 26.3$\pm$1.2 kpc. As well as being spatially located within the Sagittarius dwarf tidal stream, these properties are well matched to the Sagittarius galaxy's Population B stars. Interestingly, like our recent findings on the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidate Tucana V, the stellar field in the direction of Cetus II shows no evidence of a concentrated overdensity despite tracing the main sequence for over six magnitudes. These results strongly support the picture that Cetus II is not an ultra-faint stellar system in the Milky Way halo, but made up of stars from the Sagittarius tidal stream.

description: Beginning in 2012, NASA utilized a strategic process to identify broad societal questions, or grand challenges, that are well suited to the aerospace sector and align with national priorities. This effort generated NASA's first grand challenge, the Asteroid Grand Challenge, a large scale effort using multidisciplinary collaborations and innovative engagement mechanisms focused on finding and addressing asteroid threats to human populations. In April 2010, President Barack Obama announced a mission to send humans to an asteroid by 2025. This resulted in the agency's Asteroid Redirect Mission to leverage and maximize existing robotic and human efforts to capture and reroute an asteroid, with the goal of eventual human exploration. The AGC, initiated in 2013, complemented ARM by expanding public participation, partnerships, and other approaches to find, understand, and overcome these potentially harmful asteroids. This paper describes a selection of AGC activities implemented from 2013 to 2017 and their results, excluding those conducted by NASA's Near Earth Object Observations Program and other organizations. The strategic development of the initiative is outlined as well as initial successes, strengths, and weaknesses resulting from the first four years of AGC activities and approaches. Finally, we describe lesson learned and areas for continued work and study. The AGC lessons learned and strategies could inform the work of other agencies and organizations seeking to conduct a global scientific investigation with matrixed organizational support, multiple strategic partners, and numerous internal and external open innovation approaches and audiences.

description: Scenario-based virtual testing is seen as a key element to bring the overall safety validation effort for automated driving functions to an economically feasible level. In this work, a generic and modular architecture for simulation of automotive perception sensors is introduced, as part of the overall virtual testing pipeline. It is based on the functional decomposition of real world perception sensors. All interfaces between the individual modules of the model architecture are oriented on internationally recognized standards and therefore facilitate a high degree of interchangeability. In addition, a wrapper framework handles all outer communication and enables a profile-based parameterization of the model, where every profile reflects a specific set of parameters tailored to the specifications and use case of the end user.
What are the principle modes of action of wetting agents and how can they aid turfgrass quality while Improving water conservation?
Creators: name: Martin, Thomas

description: Wetting agents are a class of surfactant - organic chemicals that reduce the surface tension between two materials. The sandy soils that many golf courses are constructed on can develop water repellency due to an organic coating that forms around sand particles. Wetting agents allow water to effectively bind with sand particles and can significantly reduce the length of time that water sits on the soil surface. Along with potentially improving turf quality, this has positive implications in terms of reducing surface runoff and improving water use efficiency. To explore the effects of wetting agents on grass physiology, development and soil interactions, investigations were conducted using three different wetting agent treatments on two cool-season turfgrass species - Highland bentgrass Agrostis castellana and Annual meadow grass Poa annua. Assessments of the effects of wetting agent treatments on seed germination, plant growth rate, nutrient uptake, rhizosheath properties, rooting characteristics and drought interactions were made over the course of three experiments carried out in controlled conditions. It was found that plant and turf growth rate can be affected in the two species to different extents depending on the wetting agent used, with positive implications for turf quality in the field for a newly developed wetting agent. The same treatment also significantly improved germination success in A. castellana and resulted in significant differences between the two species in terms of rhizosheath size and root diameter, with A. castellana being positively affected. The evidence presented in this study shows that wetting agents can affect the distribution of water resources in the soil by shifting the rhizosheath water content to bulk soil water content ratio to potentially maximise water and nutrient uptake by the roots. The results also show that another wetting agent treatment has the potential to improve drought tolerance in drought susceptible species through analysis of plant growth rate under drought conditions, stomatal conductance and leaf relative water content. It is hypothesised that the combination of effects caused by a wetting agent treatment may lead to improved water use efficiency and a more desirable sward composition for golf course owners in the field, resulting in water conservation and a reduction in the need to use herbicides to combat weed species.

Water-like anomalies as a function of tetrahedrality

description: Tetrahedral interactions describe the behaviour of the most abundant and technologically important materials on Earth, such as water, silicon, carbon, germanium, and countless others. Despite their differences, these materials share unique common physical behaviours, such as liquid anomalies, open crystalline structures, and extremely poor glass-forming ability at ambient pressure. To reveal the physical origin of these anomalies and their link to the shape of the phase diagram, we systematically study the properties of the Stillinger-Weber potential as a function of the strength of the tetrahedral interaction $λ$. We uncover a new transition to a re-entrant spinodal line at low values of $λ$, accompanied with a change in the dynamical behaviour, from Non-Arrhenius to Arrhenius. We then show that a two-state model can provide a comprehensive understanding on how the thermodynamic and dynamic anomalies of this important class of materials depend on the strength of the tetrahedral interaction. Our work establishes a deep link between the shape of phase diagram and the thermodynamic and dynamic properties through local structural ordering in liquids, and hints at why water is so special among all substances.

description: Using two specific models and a model-independent formalism, we show that in addition to the usual quadratic ``side'', ``out'' and ``longitudinal'' terms, a previously neglected ``out-longitudinal'' cross term arises naturally in the exponent of the two-particle correlator. Since its effects can be easily observed, such a term should be included in any experimental fits to correlation data. We also suggest a method of organizing correlation data using rapidity rather than longitudinal momentum differences since in the former every relevant quantity is longitudinally boost invariant.
