description: The Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), the world’s largest social science data repository, developed its formal digital preservation program nearly 20 years ago, around the same time as the start of the iPRES conference. While ICPSR had conducted preservation activities since its founding in 1962 and subsequent moves from punch cards to magnetic tapes to hard disk drives, it conscientiously professionalized and standardized digital preservation work after the recommendation of a 2004 external process review committee report. 

This poster outlines improvements ICPSR has made over the past 20 years, especially in the following areas: organizational readiness, storage, metadata interoperability, file integrity, and file format identification.

description: Dieser Text wirft Schlaglichter auf drei Momente der (Trink)Wasser-Infrastrukturierung rund um das Fernwassernetzwerk Elbaue-Ostharz: (1) Die Planungs- und Entstehungsgeschichte der Rappbodetalsperre (und wie damalige Ideen der Moderne heute in Momenten des In-Szene-Setzens widerhallen), (2) die Debatte um den Anschluss Sangerhausens an das Fernwassernetzwerk (und wie hier affektiv argumentiert wurde) und schließlich (3) aktuelle Diskussionen rund um nachhaltige (Trink-)Wasserbewirtschaftung in Mansfeld-Südharz (und wie hier ‚anthropozäne Verunsicherungen‘ eine große Rolle einnehmen). Meine Arbeit fußt auf ethnografischer Forschung, die ich im Rahmen des Forschungsprojekts regulate durchgeführt habe. Diese Eingebundenheit reflektiere ich als ‚parasitical collaboration‘. In den drei von mir in den Blick genommenen Momenten werden Debatten um Infrastrukturen und deren Verwobenheit mit Fragen der Klimawandelanpassung auf regionaler Ebene sicht- und greifbar.

description: Unintentionally doped (001)-oriented orthorhombic κ-Ga2O3 epitaxial films on c-plane sapphire substrates are characterized by the presence of ≈ 10 nm wide columnar rotational domains that can severely inhibit in-plane electronic conduction. Comparing the in- and out-of-plane resistance on well-defined sample geometries, it is experimentally proved that the in-plane resistivity is at least ten times higher than the out-of-plane one. The introduction of silane during metal-organic vapor phase epitaxial growth not only allows for n-type Si extrinsic doping, but also results in the increase of more than one order of magnitude in the domain size (up to ≈ 300 nm) and mobility (highest µ ≈ 10 cm2V−1s−1, with corresponding lowest ρ ≈ 0.2 Ωcm). To qualitatively compare the mean domain dimension in κ-Ga2O3 epitaxial films, non-destructive experimental procedures are provided based on X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The results of this study pave the way to significantly improved in-plane conduction in κ-Ga2O3 and its possible breakthrough in new generation electronics. The set of cross-linked experimental techniques and corresponding interpretation here proposed can apply to a wide range of material systems that suffer/benefit from domain-related functional properties.

description: We revisit the problem of full counting statistics of particles on a segment of a one-dimensional gas of free fermions. Using a combination of analytical and numerical methods, we study the crossover between the counting of discrete particles and of the continuous particle density as a function of smoothing in the counting procedure. In the discrete-particle limit, the result is given by the Fisher--Hartwig expansion for Toeplitz determinants, while in the continuous limit we recover the bosonization results. This example of full counting statistics with smoothing is also related to orthogonality catastrophe, Fermi-edge singularity and non-equilibrium bosonization.

description: The study aimed to compare the content of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) with that of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and to examine the extent to which PANSS items are represented in the ICF Core Sets (ICF-CS) for schizophrenia. The 30 items of the PANSS were linked to the ICF using established rules by two health professionals experienced in applying the ICF conceptual framework. PANSS items were linked to 42 unique ICF categories, corresponding mainly to the Body functions component; categories b160 Thought functions and b152 Emotional functions from this component were the most frequently linked. Regarding the Activities and participation component, the second-level category d720 Complex interpersonal interactions was the most frequently linked to PANSS items. Overall, PANSS items covered 18% and 40% of the categories included, respectively, in the Comprehensive and Brief versions of the ICF-CSs for schizophrenia. No PANSS items were linked to categories from the Body structures or Environmental factors components. The PANSS broadly covers the content of the ICF, especially as regards mental and movement-related functions, although it also covers some aspects of interpersonal relationships.

description: Net ecosystem exchange (NEE) is an important indicator of carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Many previous studies have combined flux observations and meteorological, biophysical, and ancillary predictors using machine learning to simulate the site-scale NEE. However, systematic evaluation of the performance of such models is limited. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of these NEE simulations. A total of 40 such studies and 178 model records were included. The impacts of various features throughout the modeling process on the accuracy of the model were evaluated. Random forests and support vector machines performed better than other algorithms. Models with larger timescales have lower average R2 values, especially when the timescale exceeds the monthly scale. Half-hourly models (average R2 = 0.73) were significantly more accurate than daily models (average R2 = 0.5). There are significant differences in the predictors used and their impacts on model accuracy for different plant functional types (PFTs). Studies at continental and global scales (average R2 = 0.37) with multiple PFTs, more sites, and a large span of years correspond to lower R2 values than studies at local (average R2 = 0.69) and regional (average R2 = 0.7) scales. Also, the site-scale NEE predictions need more focus on the internal heterogeneity of the NEE dataset and the matching of the training set and validation set.

description: Occupational burnout is highly prevalent in the mental healthcare workforce and associated with poorer job satisfaction, performance and outcomes. To evaluate the effects of the Mind Management Skills for Life Programme on burnout and wellbeing. N = 173 mental health nurses were recruited from the English National Health Service during the acute phase of the COVID-19 crisis. Participants were allocated to an immediate intervention or a delayed intervention control group, using a stepped wedge randomized controlled trial design. Measures of burnout (OLBI) and wellbeing (WEMWBS) were completed at four time-points: [1] baseline; [2] after the first group finished the intervention; [3] after the second group finished the intervention; and [4] six-months follow-up. Between-group differences were compared at each time-point using ANCOVA adjusting for baseline severity. Statistically significant effects on burnout (d = 0.60) and wellbeing (d = −0.62) were found at time-point 2, favouring the intervention relative to waitlist control. No significant differences were found at subsequent time-points, indicating that both groups improved and maintained their gains after the intervention. This intervention led to moderate improvements in burnout and wellbeing, despite the adverse circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic at the time of the study.

description: Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers are newly discovered semiconductors for a wide range of applications in electronics and optoelectronics. Most studies have focused on binary monolayers that share common properties: direct optical bandgap, spin-orbit (SO) splittings of hundreds of meV, light-matter interaction dominated by robust excitons and coupled spin-valley states of electrons. Studies on alloy-based monolayers are more recent, yet they may not only extend the possibilities for TMDC applications through specific engineering but also help understanding the differences between each binary material. Here, we synthesized highly crystalline Mo$_{(1-x)}$W$_{x}$Se$_2$ to show engineering of the direct optical bandgap and the SO coupling in ternary alloy monolayers. We investigate the impact of the tuning of the SO spin splitting on the optical and polarization properties. We show a non-linear increase of the optically generated valley polarization as a function of tungsten concentration, where 40% tungsten incorporation is sufficient to achieve valley polarization as high as in binary WSe2. We also probe the impact of the tuning of the conduction band SO spin splitting on the bright versus dark state population i.e. PL emission intensity. We show that the MoSe2 PL intensity decreases as a function of temperature by an order of magnitude, whereas for WSe2 we measure surprisingly an order of magnitude increase over the same temperature range (T=4-300K). The ternary material shows a trend between these two extreme behaviors. These results show the strong potential of SO engineering in ternary TMDC alloys for optoelectronics and applications based on electron spin- and valley-control.

description: Lyman Break Analogs (LBA) are local proxies of high-redshift Lyman Break Galaxies (LBG). Studies of nearby starbursts have shown that Lyman continuum and line emission are absorbed by dust and that the Lyman-alpha is resonantly scattered by neutral hydrogen. A source of feedback is required to prevent scattering and allow the Lyman-alpha emission to escape. There are two X-ray point sources embedded in the Lyman Break Analog (LBA) galaxy Haro 11. Haro 11 X-1 is an extremely luminous (L$_{X} \sim 10^{41}$ ergs s$^{-1}$), spatially compact source with a hard X-ray spectrum. Haro 11 X-1 is similar to the extreme Black Hole Binary (BHB) M82 X-1. The hard X-ray spectrum indicates Haro 11 X-1 may be a Black Hole Binary (BHB) in a low accretion state. The very high X-ray luminosity suggests an intermediate mass black hole that could be the seed for formation of a supermassive black hole. Source Haro 11 X-2 has an X-ray luminosity L$_{X} \sim 5\times10^{40}$ ergs s$^{-1}$ and a soft X-ray spectrum. This strongly suggests that Haro 11 X-2 is an X-ray binary in the ultra luminous state. Haro 11 X-2 is coincident with the star forming knot that is the source of the Lyman-alpha emission, raising the possibility that strong winds from X-ray binaries play an important part in injecting mechanical power into the Interstellar Medium (ISM), thus blowing away neutral material from the starburst region and allowing the Lyman-alpha to escape. We suggest that feedback from X-ray binaries may play a significant role in allowing Lyman-alpha emission to escape from galaxies in the early universe.

description: Markov processes restarted or reset at random times to a fixed state or region in space have been actively studied recently in connection with random searches, foraging, and population dynamics. Here we study the large deviations of time-additive functions or observables of Markov processes with resetting. By deriving a renewal formula linking generating functions with and without resetting we are able to obtain the rate function of such observables, characterizing the likelihood of their fluctuations in the long-time limit. We consider as an illustration the large deviations of the area of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with resetting. Other applications involving diffusions, random walks, and jump processes with resetting or catastrophes are discussed.

description: With the rapid accumulation of water flux observations from global eddy-covariance flux sites, many studies have used data-driven approaches to model water fluxes, with various predictors and machine learning algorithms used. However, it is unclear how various model features affect prediction accuracy. To fill this gap, we evaluated this issue based on records of 139 developed models collected from 32 such studies. Support vector machines (SVMs; average R-squared = 0.82) and RF (random forest; average R-squared = 0.81) outperformed other evaluated algorithms with sufficient sample size in both cross-study and intra-study (with the same data) comparisons. The average accuracy of the model applied to arid regions is higher than in other climate types. The average accuracy of the model was slightly lower for forest sites (average R-squared = 0.76) than for croplands and grasslands (average R-squared = 0.8 and 0.79) but higher than for shrubland sites (average R-squared = 0.67). Using Rn/Rs, precipitation, Ta, and the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (FA-PAR) improved the model accuracy. The combined use of Ta and Rn/Rs is very effective, especially in forests, while in grasslands the combination of Ws and Rn/Rs is also effective. Random cross-validation showed higher model accuracy than spatial cross-validation and temporal cross- validation, but spatial cross-validation is more important in spatial extrapolation. The findings of this study are promising to guide future research on such machine-learning-based modeling.

description: An accurate and efficient description of the spatial distribution of laser energy is a crucial factor for the modeling of laser material processing, e.g., laser welding, laser cutting, or laser-based additive manufacturing. In this study, a 3D heat transfer and fluid flow model coupled with the volume-of-fluid algorithm for free surface tracking is developed for the simulation of molten pool dynamics in high-power laser beam welding. The underlying laser-material interactions, i.e., the multiple reflections and Fresnel absorption, are considered by a ray-tracing method. Two strategies of free surface reconstruction used in the ray-tracing method are investigated: a typical piecewise linear interface calculation (PLIC)-based method and a novel localized level-set method. The PLIC-based method is discrete, resulting in non-continuous free surface reconstruction. In the localized level-set method, a continuous free surface is reconstructed, and, thus, the exact reflection points can be determined. The calculated spatial laser energy distribution and the corresponding molten pool dynamics from the two methods are analyzed and compared. The obtained numerical results are evaluated with experimental measurements to assure the validity of the proposed model. It is found that distinct patterns of the beam multiple reflections are obtained with the different free surface reconstructions, which shows significant influence not only on the molten pool behaviors but also on the localized keyhole dynamics.

description: Substantial innovation related to cancer prevention and treatment has occurred in recent decades. However, these innovations have often come at a significant cost. Cost-utility analysis provides a useful framework to assess if the benefits from innovation are worth the additional cost. This systematic review on published cost-utility analyses related to cancer care is from 1988 through 2013. Analyses were conducted in 2013–2015.

Do the $P_c^+$ Pentaquarks Have Strange Siblings?
Creators: name: Lebed, Richard F.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The recent LHCb discovery of states $P_c^+(4380)$, $P_c^+(4450)$, believed to be $c\bar c uud$ pentaquark resonances, begs the question of whether equivalent states with $c\bar c \to s\bar s$ exist, and how they might be produced. The precise analogue to the $P_c^+$ discovery channel $Λ_b \to J/ψ\, K^- \! p$, namely, $Λ_c \to ϕπ^0 \! p$, is feasible for this study and indeed is less Cabibbo-suppressed, although its limited phase space suggests that evidence of a $s\bar s uud$ resonance $P_s^+$ would be confined to the kinematic endpoint region.

description: The delivery of prevention services to children and adolescents through traditional healthcare settings is challenging for a variety of reasons. Parent- and community-focused services are typically not reimbursable in traditional medical settings, and personal healthcare services are often designed for acute and chronic medical treatment rather than prevention. To provide preventive services in a setting that reaches the widest population, those interested in public health and prevention often turn to school settings. This paper proposes that an equitable, efficient manner in which to promote health across the life course is to integrate efforts from public health, primary care, and public education through the delivery of preventive healthcare services, in particular, in the education system. Such an integration of systems will require a concerted effort on the part of various stakeholders, as well as a shared vision to promote child health via community and institutional stakeholder partnerships. This paper includes (1) examination of some key system features necessary for delivery of preventive services that improve child outcomes; (2) a review of the features of some common models of school health services for their relevance to prevention services; and (3) policy and implementation strategy recommendations to further the delivery of preventive services in schools. These recommendations include the development of common metrics for health outcomes reporting, facilitated data sharing of these metrics, shared organization incentives for integration, and improved reimbursement and funding opportunities.

description: Breast cancer in women aged 18–44 years accounts for approximately 27,000 newly diagnosed cases and 3,000 deaths annually. When tumors are diagnosed, they are usually aggressive, resulting in expensive treatment costs. The purpose of this study is to estimate the prevalent medical costs attributable to breast cancer treatment among privately insured younger women.
Towards finding the single-particle content of two-dimensional adjoint QCD
Creators: name: Trittmann, Uwe
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The single-particle content of two-dimensional adjoint QCD remains elusive due to the inability to distinguish single- from multi-particle states. To find a criterion we compare several approximations to the theory. Starting from the asymptotic theory (no pair production, only singular operators), we construct sets of eigenfunctions in the lowest parton sectors of the theory. A perturbative treatment of the omitted operators is performed. We find that multi-particle states are absent if pair-production is disallowed and hints for a double Regge trajectory of single-particle states. We discuss the structure of the eigensystem of the theory, and present the reason for the fact that bosonic single-particle states do not form multi-particle states.

Subjects: subject: Physical Sciences and Mathematics

description: The purpose of this research is to generate electricity from solar energy with its different application there are two main types which divide into photovoltaic panels which depend on the light of the sun, solar heat panels contain: parabolic trough, solar tower, and non-aqueous heating devices which depend on thermal from the sun and each of them contains its specific structure and material. From the previous research, Photovoltaic panels generate electricity from sunlight with high efficiency and high cost but low cost compared to another ordinary way of generating electricity. Photovoltaic divided into other types, for example, CPV which use mirrors with a special type of silicon and there are also thin-film solar panels, Polycrystalline and Mono Monocrystalline which are low efficiency compared to solar heat panel which generates electricity by absorbing the heat from the sun with mirrors which collect heat at a certain point, then heat the liquid and transfer it to the water for steam, this steam converts the turbines connected to the generator that transfers mechanical energy into electrical energy. The cost depends on the cheap materials were used in it, and among the previous research, the best application was the solar thermal power plant as it can overcome its defects. For measuring the output of different panels different devices, laws, and theories to select the parameters focus on the Iv of each PV
