description: Prompt-based interfaces for Large Language Models (LLMs) have made prototyping and building AI-powered applications easier than ever before. However, identifying potential harms that may arise from AI applications remains a challenge, particularly during prompt-based prototyping. To address this, we present Farsight, a novel in situ interactive tool that helps people identify potential harms from the AI applications they are prototyping. Based on a user's prompt, Farsight highlights news articles about relevant AI incidents and allows users to explore and edit LLM-generated use cases, stakeholders, and harms. We report design insights from a co-design study with 10 AI prototypers and findings from a user study with 42 AI prototypers. After using Farsight, AI prototypers in our user study are better able to independently identify potential harms associated with a prompt and find our tool more useful and usable than existing resources. Their qualitative feedback also highlights that Farsight encourages them to focus on end-users and think beyond immediate harms. We discuss these findings and reflect on their implications for designing AI prototyping experiences that meaningfully engage with AI harms.

description: We consider a SU(2) lattice gauge theory on the square lattice, with a single fundamental complex fermion and a single fundamental complex boson on each lattice site. Projective symmetries of the gauge-charged fermions are chosen so that they match with those of the spinons of the $π$-flux spin liquid. Global symmetries of all gauge-invariant observables are chosen to match with those of the particle-hole symmetric electronic Hubbard model at half-filling. Consequently, both the fundamental fermion and fundamental boson move in an average background $π$-flux, their gauge-invariant composite is the physical electron, and eliminating gauge fields in a strong gauge-coupling expansion yields an effective extended Hubbard model for the electrons. The SU(2) gauge theory displays several confining/Higgs phases: a nodal $d$-wave superconductor, and states with Néel, valence-bond solid, charge, or staggered current orders. There are also a number of quantum phase transitions between these phases which are very likely described by 2+1 dimensional deconfined conformal gauge theories, and we present large flavor expansions for such theories. These include the phenomenologically attractive case of a transition between a conventional insulator with a charge gap and Néel order, and a conventional $d$-wave superconductor with gapless Bogoliubov quasiparticles at 4 nodal points in the Brillouin zone. We also apply our approach to the honeycomb lattice, where we find a bicritical point at the junction of Néel, valence bond solid (Kekulé), and Dirac semi-metal phases.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF UNRESTRICTED, GROUP FARROWING SYSTEMS FOR SOWS
Creators: name: BURKE, JEAN
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1998

description: This thesis examines the activities of four groups of four sows, allocated to one of two space allocations, in a novel farrowing system design, over parturition and during lactation. The two pen configurations provided 13.4m² (L) and 8.6m² (S) per sow, respectively. A lactation diet providing 14MJ/kg DE and 18% CP was supplied ad libitum via a sow operated feeder, adapted to facilitate the calculation of individual feed intakes. The influence of environmental, physical, management and production factors upon the way in which sows allocated their time to different activities, suckling behaviour, feed intakes and feeding and drinking strategies was investigated. Sows in the small pen area were generally less active than those housed in the large pen configuration. During the first week of lactation, significantly more time was spent lying down (P<0.05) and fewer transitions were made between postures (P<0.001) in the reduced space allocation. Sows in the S pen configuration suckled their piglets significantly more frequently than sows in the L pen area (P<0.001). However, similar daily piglet weight gains were achieved in both the L and S pen configurations. Daily feed intakes of 7.69 kg (s.e. 0.31) and 7.72 kg (s.e. 0.35) were achieved during lactation, by sows in the L and S pen configurations, respectively. This was accomplished by sows taking a series of small feeds throughout the day. Sows in the S pen area made fewer visits to the feeder and spent less time per day feeding, compared with sows in the L pen area. However, more feed was consumed per visit by the S sows, resulting in similar daily feed intakes in both treatment groups. A marked increase in activity during the 24 hours prior to parturition was followed by a sharp reduction during day 1 of lactation in both treatment groups. Thereafter, activity levels increased gradually during week 1 of lactation. Most piglet deaths occurred in early lactation, 65.0% and 67.9% of which were during days 1 to 3 following birth in the L and S pen areas, respectively. Mortality of live-born piglets was unacceptably high at 19.6% in the L and 24.6% in the S pen areas. The relative advantages and disadvantages to sows and piglets within the novel farrowing system are considered in the general discussion.
Mathematical modelling of shoreline evolution under climate change
Creators: name: Zacharioudaki, Anna
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2008

description: This study focuses on the impact of potential changes in the wind-wave climate on shoreline change. The `one-line' model for medium to long-term prediction of coastline evolution is employed. New analytical and numerical solutions of this important model are described. Specifically: 1) original semi-analytical solutions are derived that relax the unrealistic assumption of existing analytical work that a constant wave condition drives shoreline change and, 2) a more general form of the one-line model is solved with a novel application of the `Method of Lines'. Model input consists of 30-year nearshore wave climate scenarios, corresponding to the `present' (1961-1990) and the future (2071-2100). Winds from a high resolution, (12km x 12km), regional climate model, obtained offshore of the south-central coast of England at a dense temporal resolution of 3 hours, are used to develop the aforementioned wave climate scenarios, through hindcast and inshore wave transformation. A hypothetical shoreline segment is adopted as a `benchmark' case for comparisons. Monthly and seasonal statistics of output shoreline positions are generated and assessedfo r relative changeso f `significance' between `present' and future. Different degrees of evidence that such changes do exist are found. This study is the first application of such high resolution climate model output to investigate climate change impact on shoreline response. Major findings include: 1) shoreline changes of `significance' are strongly linked to `significant' changes in future wave direction, 2) future changes appear smaller for entire seasons than for individual months, 3) shoreline position variability is often smaller in the future, 4) different climate model experiments produce diverging results; however, general trends are largely similar. The present study, at a fundamental level, offers analytical solutions of the 'oneline' model that are closer to reality and a numerical solution that is of increased effciency.. At a practical level, it contributes to better understanding of the patterns of shoreline response to changing offshore wave climate through: 1) the use of fast and straightforward methods that can accommodate numerous climate scenarios without need for data reduction, and 2) the development of a methodology for using climate model output for coastal climate change impact assessment studies.

description: Within the framework of the spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking, we consider a metric--affine generalization of the gravitational sector of the Standard--Model Extension (SME), including the Lorentz--violating (LV) coefficients $u$ and $s^{μν}$. In this model, we derive the modified Einstein field equations in order to obtain a new axisymmetric vacuum spinning solution for a particular bumblebee's profile. Such a solution has the remarkable property of incorporating the effects of Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB) through the LV dimensionless parameter $X=ξb^2$, as the LSB is turned off, $X=0$, we recover the well--established result, the Kerr solution, as expected. Afterwards, we calculate the geodesics, the radial acceleration and thermodynamic quantities for this new metric. We also estimate an upper bound for $X$ by using astrophysical data of the advance Mercury's perihelion.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LIVESTOCK DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS AND ANIMAL WELFARE
Creators: name: MURRAY, KAREN CHRISTINA
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2001

description: Major changes are taking place in all sectors of the livestock and meat producing industries from farm to consumer which impinge on the processes and patterns of livestock distribution from farm to slaughter. These changes are identified and described. A survey of the complete journeys from farm to abattoir of 18,393 slaughterweight lambs sold direct from farm to abattoir, via livestock auction markets and via electronic auctions was conducted. Lambs sold direct from farm to abattoir experienced shorter journeys (in terms of both median duration and distance) than lambs sold through either of the other two channels. Lambs sold through electronic auctions, on average, travelled longer distances but for shorter times than lambs sold through livestock auction markets. Although these results are broadly consistent with the common perception of direct sale lambs experiencing simpler journeys than lambs passing through the other channels, they do not support this view unequivocally. The journeys were diverse in all three distribution channels and ranged from direct and uninterrupted transfer from farm to abattoir (n=4,888) to highly complex itineraries including up to three periods of transportation interspersed with two holding periods at assembly points, staging posts or auction markets (n=l,034). Journeys also included those with between 2 and 8 pickups en route (n=2,369), and those involving holding at assembly points, staging posts or livestock auction markets before transfer to abattoir (n=10,102). A total of 26 different journey structures were identified: 18 in direct farm to abattoir sales, 9 in sales via livestock auction markets and 13 within the electronic auction system. The effect of journey structure on the welfare of slaughterweight lambs (90 transported and 45 non-transported controls) was investigated in an experiment comprising 3 journey types (direct transfer from farm to abattoir, a journey involving 3 additional pickups en route and a journey incorporating holding at a livestock auction market) with non-transported controls held in a pen for the duration of the transport period. Transportation per se affected the liveweight and behaviour of the lambs: transported lambs lost more weight during the transport period and spent less time ruminating and less time lying down than non-transported lambs. Multiple pickup and Market lambs lost more weight and spent less time ruminating whilst lying than Direct lambs. Ultimate carcase pH (pHu) was higher for Multiple pickup and Market lambs than Direct lambs. There were no differences in liveweight loss, ruminating behaviour or pHu between Multiple pickup and Market lambs. Direct and uninterrupted transfer from farm to abattoir is preferable to more complex itineraries, but it is essential to consider journey structure, rather than simply the marketing channel, when judging the impact of livestock transport on animal welfare.

description: Abstract

Introduction: Colorectal surgery can lead to surgical complications as well as side effects that can increase medical morbidity and postoperative mortality. To address this, Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) is a therapeutic approach that involves a protocol aimed at quickly rehabilitating the patient, thereby reducing morbidity, mortality, and length of hospital stay. Its objective is to return the patient to their normal state as early as possible. Materials and methods: Our prospective study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of an ERAS program after colorectal surgery in a group of 170 patients operated on for colorectal pathology and treated according to a "FAST-TRACK" protocol. Evaluation criteria included adherence to the program, duration of postoperative stay, morbidity, mortality, readmission rates, and impact on postoperative comfort of patients who underwent these procedures. Results: The protocol adherence rate was 83.8%, and the average length of stay after colorectal surgery was 4 days. The overall morbidity rate was 14.1%, with medical and surgical morbidity rates of 5.9% and 8.3%, respectively. There were no deaths, and the readmission rate was 4.7%. Postoperative comfort was well managed with a higher rate of pain control EVA < 3 in 96.3% of patients, good management of nausea and vomiting in 85.9% of cases, early feeding in 94.1% of patients, and early mobilization in 91.8% of patients. Conclusions: Enhanced Recovery after Colorectal Surgery is feasible and safe. It offers a reduction in length of stay and complications as well as rapid functional recovery of the patient, at the cost of multidisciplinary collaboration.

description: Gravitational waves from binary mergers at cosmological distances will experience weak lensing by large scale structure. This causes a (de-)magnification, $μ$, of the wave amplitude, and a degenerate modification to the inferred luminosity distance $d_L$. To address this the uncertainty on $d_L$ is increased according to the dispersion of the magnification distribution at the source redshift, $σ_μ$. But this term is dependent on cosmological parameters that are being constrained by gravitational wave "standard sirens", such as the Hubble parameter $H_0$, and the matter density fraction $Ω_m$. $σ_μ$ is also sensitive to the resolution of the simulation used for its calculation. Tension in the measured value of $H_0$ from independent datasets, and the present use of outdated cosmological simulations, suggest $σ_μ$ could be underestimated. We consider two classes of standard siren, supermassive black hole binary and binary neutron star mergers. Underestimating $H_0$ and $Ω_m$ when calculating $σ_μ$ increases the probability of finding a residual lensing bias on these parameters greater than $1σ$ by 1.5-3 times. Underestimating $σ_μ$ by using low resolution/small sky-area simulations can also significantly increase the probability of biased results. For neutron star mergers, the spread of possible biases is 0.25 km/s/Mpc, comparable to the forecasted uncertainty. Left uncorrected this effect limits the use of BNS mergers for precision cosmology. For supermassive black hole binaries, the spread of possible biases on $H_0$ is significant, 5 km/s/Mpc, but $O(200)$ observations are needed to reduce the variance below the bias. To achieve accurate sub-percent level precision on cosmological parameters using standard sirens, first much improved knowledge on the form of the magnification distribution and its dependence on cosmology is needed.

description: The authors and collaborators have devised innovative technologies that decrease foundry costs, pollution, materials use, and energy. These include: (a) applying advanced oxidation to green sand and baghouse dust to diminish clay, coal, sand, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and costs; (b) replacing phenolic urethane core binders with collagen-alkali silicate binders to diminish VOCs; (c) replacing coke with anthracite fines held together with biomaterial to reduce energy and costs. It is proposed by the authors that if a foundry were to concurrently employ all these innovative technologies (with 50% anthracite bricks), it could potentially diminish overall costs by 6.6%, life cycle energy costs by 15%, VOC pollution by 57%, sand by 85%, clay and coal by 50%, and iron scrap by 9%. These computations are per full-scale operations for advanced oxidation; and R&D results for replacing binders and coke. This paper also notes that when electricity comes primarily from coal fired power plants, electric induction furnaces consumes more life cycle energy than do cupolas for melting iron.

REMARKS: Alien species originally from South Africa (Day 1955). Although the specimens reported by Giangrade et al. (2003, 2004) in the SA as S. hesslei were not re-examined, it is possible that they belong to S. comatus (Grube, 1856), as already reported by Çinar (2009) for the record of S. hesslei in the Gulf of Naples (Italy) by Giangrande et al. (1981).

DISTRIBUTION OF ELATERIDAE AND TIPULIDAE PEST SPECIES IN AN AGRICULTURAL LANDSCAPE
Creators: name: HICKS, HELEN MARY
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2009

description: Wireworms and leatherjackets, the larvae of click beetles (Agriotes spp) and crane flies (Tipula spp) respectively, are subterranean pests of grass, cereals and vegetables and are present throughout the UK and Europe. Soil cores, pheromone traps and water traps were used to measure populations. The populations of larvae were compared to those of adults. Leatherjackets and crane flies were found to be correlated, as were A. obscurus click beetle and wireworm populations. Annual variation in trap catches was observed. Populations were related at a number of spatial scales to cultural, physical and chemical variables. Spatial structure of populations was identified at all scales (sub field, field and landscape) using SADIE analysis, Moran's I and Taylor's Power Law, but the presence or absence of discernable spatial structure was dependant on species, population and annual variation. Environmental variables were linked to populations using multiple regression; the most common variable for all species were the number of years in grass, but the populations of each species and life stage were defined by its own set of variables. Important population defining variables were assessed as potential organically compliant cultural pest control methods. These included rolling, cultivation and crop rotation, but none could be definitively recommended as control methods without further work. In addition, pheromone traps for click beetles were characterised, it was found that the three species of click beetles had differential speeds of travel and the traps had differing effective ranges. A. lineatus were found to travel the fastest, A. obscurus slower and A. sputator travelled slowest. The maximum sampling range (over 30 days) was greatest for A. lineatus, less for A. obscurus and least for A. sputator.

description: A search for long-lived heavy neutrinos (N) in the decays of B mesons produced in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV is presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 41.6 fb$^{-1}$ collected in 2018 by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC, using a dedicated data stream that enhances the number of recorded events containing B mesons. The search probes heavy neutrinos with masses in the range 1 $\lt$ $m_\mathrm{N}$ $\lt$ 3 GeV and decay lengths in the range 10$^{-2}$ $\lt$ $cτ_\mathrm{N}$ $\lt$ 10$^{4}$ mm, where $τ_\mathrm{N}$ is the N proper mean lifetime. Signal events are defined by the signature B $\to$ $\ell_\mathrm{B}$NX; N $\to$ $\ell^{\pm} π^{\mp}$, where the leptons $\ell_\mathrm{B}$ and $\ell$ can be either a muon or an electron, provided that at least one of them is a muon. The hadronic recoil system, X, is treated inclusively and is not reconstructed. No significant excess of events over the standard model background is observed in any of the $\ell^{\pm} π^{\mp}$ invariant mass distributions. Limits at 95% confidence level on the sum of the squares of the mixing amplitudes between heavy and light neutrinos, $\vert V_\mathrm{N}\vert^2$, and on $cτ$ are obtained in different mixing scenarios for both Majorana and Dirac-like N particles. The most stringent upper limit $\vert V_\mathrm{N}\vert^2$ $\lt$ 2.0 $\times$ 10$^{-5}$ is obtained at $m_\mathrm{N}$ = 1.95 GeV for the Majorana case where N mixes exclusively with muon neutrinos. The limits on $\vert V_\mathrm{N}\vert^2$ for masses 1 $\lt$ $m_\mathrm{N}$ $\lt$ 1.7 GeV are the most stringent from a collider experiment to date.

REMARKS: Although type locality of T. setosus is Arctic Ocean, it was recorded from numerous locations around the world (Pacific, Atlantic, Indian oceans, Mediterranean Sea, Red Sea). However, Hutchings & Glasby (1987) suspect that the species is not as cosmopolitan as would appear from the literature. Additional samples would need to be analysed in order to reveal the identity of T. setosus from the Adriatic Sea, as it might as well represent a different species.

Effects of mechanical stress, chemical potential, and coverage on hydrogen solubility during hydrogen-enhanced decohesion of ferritic steel grain boundaries: A first-principles study

description: Hydrogen-enhanced decohesion (HEDE) is one of the many mechanisms of hydrogen embrittlement, a phenomenon that severely impacts structural materials such as iron and iron alloys. Grain boundaries (GBs) play a critical role in this mechanism, where they can provide trapping sites or act as hydrogen diffusion pathways. The interaction of H with GBs and other crystallographic defects, and thus the solubility and distribution of H in the microstructure, depends on the concentration, chemical potential, and local stress. Therefore, for a quantitative assessment of HEDE, a generalized solution energy in conjunction with the cohesive strength as a function of hydrogen coverage is needed. In this paper, we carry out density functional theory calculations to investigate the influence of H on the decohesion of the $Σ$5(310)[001] and $Σ$3(112)[1$\bar{1}$0] symmetrical tilt GBs in bcc Fe, as examples for open and close-packed GB structures. A method to identify the segregation sites at the GB plane is proposed. The results indicate that at higher local concentrations, H leads to a significant reduction of the cohesive strength of the GB planes, significantly more pronounced at the $Σ$5 than at the $Σ$3 GB. Interestingly, at finite stress, the $Σ$3 GB becomes more favorable for H solution, as opposed to the case of zero stress, where the $Σ$5 GB is more attractive. This suggests that, under certain conditions, stresses in the microstructure can lead to a redistribution of H to the stronger grain boundary, which opens a path to designing H-resistant microstructures. To round up our study, we investigate the effects of typical alloying elements in ferritic steel, C, V, Cr, and Mn, on the solubility of H and the strength of the GBs.

description: We investigate imaginary gap-closed (IGC) points and their associated dynamics in dissipative systems. In a general non-Hermitian model, we derive the equation governing the IGC points of the energy spectrum, establishing that these points are only determined by the Hermitian part of the Hamiltonian. Focusing on a class of one-dimensional dissipative chains, we explore quantum walks across different scenarios and various parameters, showing that IGC points induce a power-law decay scaling in bulk loss probability and trigger a boundary phenomenon referred to as "edge burst". This observation underscores the crucial role of IGC points under periodic boundary conditions (PBCs) in shaping quantum walk dynamics. Finally, we demonstrate that the damping matrices of these dissipative chains under PBCs possess Liouvillian gapless points, implying an algebraic convergence towards the steady state in long-time dynamics.

SOIL LOOSENING AND DRAINAGE EFFICIENCY OF SILT SOILS
Creators: name: TWOMLOW, STEPHEN JOHN
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1989

description: An experiment was set up to investigate the effects of soil loosening on the drainage efficiency of a structurally unstable silty clay loam in Devon. Such soils are common to the Palaeozoic slates of South West England, and in many parts of Wales and Scotland. The dominance of the fine earth fraction these soils by silt sized particles and the associated low clay fractions ( 10-35%) gives rise to weak structures that are unsuitable f or mole drainage. Six drains were laid with permeable fill at a 20 m spacing on a gently sloping site at Seale-Hayne College Farm. A year after installation half the site was loosened to a depth of 0.4 m. The whole site was then cultivated and winter wheat sown. The study concentrated on the modification of the soil physical environment and water transmission routes following loosening operations for autumn re-wetting, the winter period and spring drying. Data collection involved the analysis of drainflow hydrographs and the measurement of soil water physical parameters. Results from an intensive twelve month monitoring period indicate that the modification of subsoil to improve drainage does not necessarily give the results expected . In this study it has been shown that loosening of an unstable silty clay loam did not enhance drainage, in fact the reverse was true which can have dire consequences in terms of trafficability and plant root growth. Loosening lead to an increased porosity which resulted in a greater, albeit temporary, retention of water within the disturbed zone. This means that loosened soils were wetter prior to a rainstorm and remained so for a longer period after rainfall. This response, in turn lead to significant reductions in soil shear strength, which has important implications for successful crop husbandry in the autumn and spring periods when field operations are necessary. Further work is required to assess the temporal persistence of soil loosening on soil physical conditions and crop responses.
Weak localization and magnetoresistance of island-like thin copper films

description: We report magnetotransport and weak localization effects in island-like thin copper films. The samples show significant negative magnetoresistance (NMR) when a perpendicular magnetic field (H˔0.25 T) is applied. When the field is parallel to the film, the samples also show NMR for Hǁ2.5 T, below which positive magnetoresistance (PMR) is found. The temperature dependence of the resistivity and NMR in both perpendicular and parallel fields are due to the weak localization effect in the two-dimensional (2D) system. The observation of NMR in the parallel field is in agreement with Altshuler and Aronov's prediction (B. L. Altschuler and A. G. Aronov, Zh. Eksp. Teor. Fiz. Pis'ma Red. 33, 515 (1981)). The PMR observed at low field is analyzed mainly in terms of the spin–orbit scattering, although other mechanisms may also be possible. It is suggested that the island-like geometry can significantly affect the localization and magnetotransport in 2D metallic films.

description: The dynamical response of magnetic domain walls to external magnetic fields in ultra-thin multilayer magnetic films is determined not only by the composition and thickness of the layers but also by the growth conditions. Growth conditions can induce significant structural changes inside the layers and at the interfaces between them, affecting in particular the dynamics of domain walls, their mobility, elastic tension, and the pinning forces acting on them. In this work, we focus specifically on the effect of Ir layer growth pressure in Ta/Pt/Co/Ir/Ta ultra-thin multilayers films. Measurements of the DC magnetic properties, domain wall velocity and domain morphology in the creep regime for both constant and alternating field pulses, were performed for a batch of samples where the Ir layer was grown at different pressures. We find that the saturation magnetization, the effective anisotropy constant and the domain wall surface tension grow with increasing pressure and saturate at a threshold pressure, while the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya field and the strength of the disorder remain practically unaltered over the range of pressures considered.

Abstract:

Global greening in deciduous broadleaved forests (DBFs) suggests two primary leaf adaptation and acclimation strategies of plants: an increase in maximal leaf area (LAImax) driven by elevated CO2 levels and an extended length of growing season (LOS) in response to climate warming. However, it remains unclear which of these response offers an optimal strategy for DBFs facing ongoing climate change. Here, we examined multiple satellite-based datasets and field measurements to explore temporal changes in LAImax (∆〖LAI〗_max) and LOS (∆LOS) across global DBFs from 2002 to 2021. Our analysis revealed a negative correlation between ∆〖LAI〗_max and ∆LOS, which were previously thought to change coordinatively. Notably, the trade-offs between ∆〖LAI〗_max and ∆LOS varied by stand age. Younger DBFs with fewer initial green leaves, predominantly in eastern Asia, were more responsive to CO2 fertilization and displayed an increase in LAImax with small changes in LOS. This acquisitive strategy facilitated younger DBFs to grow more but thinner, drier leaves, thereby enhancing the light-use efficiency. Conversely, older DBFs with abundant green foliage, primarily located in eastern North America and Europe, are more sensitive to climate warming; and markedly extended their LOS with increased leaf mass per area and moisture content. This relatively conservative strategy led older DBFs to produce denser and wetter, but less-photosynthetically efficient leaves, resulting in decreased light-use efficiency. Our findings provide valuable insights into the trade-off between changes in green leaf area and growing season length and their implications for ecosystem functioning.
