description: In this paper, we propose an ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing algorithm for mobile ad-hoc networks taking into account node mobility. Changeable topology of such mobile ad-hoc networks provokes overhead messages in order to search available routes and maintain found routes. The overhead messages impede data delivery from sources to destination and deteriorate network performance. To overcome such a challenge, our proposed algorithm estimates link duration based neighboring node mobility and chooses the most reliable route. The proposed algorithm also applies the estimate for route maintenance to lessen the number of overhead messages. Via simulations, the proposed algorithm is verified in various mobile environments. In the low mobility environment, by reducing route maintenance messages, the proposed algorithm significantly improves network performance such as packet data rate and end-to-end delay. In the high mobility environment, the reduction of route discovery message enhances network performance since the proposed algorithm provides more reliable routes.

description: В статье рассматривается вопрос о роли регионалистского элемента в формировании идеологии сторонников дона Карлоса во время Первой Карлистской войны (1833–1840). Дается обзор научной литературы по данной проблематике. Выделяются две точки зрения на ранний карлизм, которые условно определяются как «испанская» и «регионалистская». Показывается, что «испанская» точка зрения была характерна для исторической науки в Испании периода франкизма. Кроме того, данный взгляд на ранний карлизм является доминантным в работах современных испанских историков. «Регионалистская» точка зрения свойственна авторам, являющимся сторонниками независимости отдельных регионов севера Испании, а также ряду неиспанских исследователей карлизма. Изучение заявленной тематики производится на основании трех категорий источников. Анализируются мемуары участников войны на стороне карлистов, а также лиц, находившихся во время конфликта на подконтрольных повстанцам территориях. Рассматриваются манифесты и обращения лидеров движения к населению Испании в первый месяц войны (октябрь 1833 г.). В общей сложности изучаются тексты 13 документов данного типа. Делается обзор переписки апостольских нунциев в Мадриде Л. Амата и Ф. Тибери с государственным секретарем Ватикана Т. Бернетти за период с 1833 по 1835 г. По итогам проведенного исследования делается вывод о периферийности регионалистских элементов в идеологии раннего карлизма. Участники движения заявляли о необходимости защиты католической религии и испанских традиций престолонаследия. Ни один из лидеров движения в течение Первой Карлистской войны не призывал к созданию автономного или полуавтономного отдельного государства на севере Испании.

description: Controlling thermal expansion is an important, not yet resolved, and challenging problem in materials research. A conceptual design is introduced here for the first time, for the use of MOFs as platforms for controlling thermal expansion devices that can operate in the negative, zero and positive expansion regimes. A detailed computer simulation study, based on molecular dynamics, is presented to support the targeted application. MOF-5 has been selected as model material along with three molecules of similar size and known differences in terms of the nature of host--guest interactions. It has been shown that adsorbate molecules can control, in a colligative way, the thermal expansion of the solid, so that changing the adsorbate molecules induces the solid to have positive, zero or negative thermal expansion. We analyze in-depth the distortion mechanisms, beyond the ligand metal junction to cover the ligand distortions, and the energetic and entropic effect on the thermo-structural behavior. We provide an unprecedented atomistic insight on the effect of adsorbates on the thermal expansion of MOFs, as a basic tool towards controlling the thermal expansion.

description: A two-dimensional water wave system is examined consisting of two discrete incompressible fluid domains separated by a free common interface. In a geophysical context this is a model of an internal wave, formed at a pycnocline or thermocline in the ocean. The system is considered as being bounded at the bottom and top by a flatbed and wave-free surface respectively. A current profile with depth-dependent currents in each domain is considered. The Hamiltonian of the system is determined and expressed in terms of canonical wave-related variables. Limiting behaviour is examined and compared to that of other known models. The linearised equations as well as long-wave approximations are presented.

description: High-dimensional linear classifiers, such as the support vector machine (SVM) and distance weighted discrimination (DWD), are commonly used in biomedical research to distinguish groups of subjects based on a large number of features. However, their use is limited to applications where a single vector of features is measured for each subject. In practice data are often multi-way, or measured over multiple dimensions. For example, metabolite abundance may be measured over multiple regions or tissues, or gene expression may be measured over multiple time points, for the same subjects. We propose a framework for linear classification of high-dimensional multi-way data, in which coefficients can be factorized into weights that are specific to each dimension. More generally, the coefficients for each measurement in a multi-way dataset are assumed to have low-rank structure. This framework extends existing classification techniques, and we have implemented multi-way versions of SVM and DWD. We describe informative simulation results, and apply multi-way DWD to data for two very different clinical research studies. The first study uses metabolite magnetic resonance spectroscopy data over multiple brain regions to compare patients with and without spinocerebellar ataxia, the second uses publicly available gene expression time-course data to compare treatment responses for patients with multiple sclerosis. Our method improves performance and simplifies interpretation over naive applications of full rank linear classification to multi-way data.

description: The main objective of this paper is to provide a tool for performing path planning at the servo level of a mobile robot. The ability to perform, in a provably correct manner, such a complex task at the servo level can lead to a large increase in the speed of operation, low energy consumption and high quality of response. Planning has been traditionally limited to the high level controller of a robot. The guidance velocity signal from this stage is usually converted to a control signal using what is known as an electronic speed controller (ESC). This paper demonstrates the ability of the harmonic potential field (HPF) approach to generate a provably correct, constrained, well behaved trajectory and control signal for a rigid, nonholonomic robot in a stationary, cluttered environment. It is shown that the HPF based, servo level planner can address a large number of challenges facing planning in a realistic situation. The suggested approach migrates the rich and provably correct properties of the solution trajectories from an HPF planner to those of the robot. This is achieved using a synchronizing control signal whose aim is to align the velocity of the robot in its local coordinates, with that of the gradient of the HPF. The link between the two is made possible by representing the robot using what the paper terms separable form. The context-sensitive and goal-oriented control signal used to steer the robot is demonstrated to be well behaved and robust in the presence of actuator noise, saturation and uncertainty in the parameters. The approach is developed, proofs of correctness are provided and the capabilities of the scheme are demonstrated using simulation results.

description: Astronomers are entering an era of μas-level astrometry utilizing the 5-decade-old IAU Galactic coordinate system that was only originally defined to $\sim$0°.1 accuracy, and where the dynamical centre of the Galaxy (Sgr A*) is located $\sim$0°.07 from the origin. We calculate new independent estimates of the North Galactic Pole (NGP) using recent catalogues of Galactic disc tracer objects such as embedded and open clusters, infrared bubbles, dark clouds, and young massive stars. Using these catalogues, we provide two new estimates of the NGP. Solution 1 is an "unconstrained" NGP determined by the galactic tracer sources, which does not take into account the location of Sgr A*, and which lies 90°.120$\,\pm\,$0°.029 from Sgr A*, and Solution 2 is a "constrained" NGP which lies exactly 90° from Sgr A*. The "unconstrained" NGP has ICRS position: $α_{NGP}$ = 192°.729 $\,\pm\,$ 0°.035, $δ_{NGP}$ = 27°.084 $\,\pm\,$ 0°.023 and $θ\,$ = 122°.928 $\,\pm\,$ 0°.016. The "constrained" NGP which lies exactly 90° away from Sgr A* has ICRS position: $α_{NGP}$ = 192°.728 $\,\pm\,$0°.010, $δ_{NGP}$ = 26°.863 $\,\pm\,$ 0°.019 and $θ\,$ = 122°.928 $\,\pm\,$ 0°.016. The difference between the solutions is likely due to the Sun lying above the Galactic midplane. Considering the angular separation between Sgr A* and our unconstrained NGP, and if one adopts the recent estimate of the Galactocentric distance for the Sun of $R_{0}$ = 8.2$\,\pm\,$0.1 kpc, then we estimate that the Sun lies $z_{\odot}$ $\simeq$ 17$\,\pm\,$5 pc above the Galactic midplane. Our value of $z_{\odot}$ is consistent with the true median of 55 previous estimates published over the past century of the Sun's height above the Galactic mid-plane ($z_{\odot}$ $\simeq$ 17$\,\pm\,$2 pc).

description: В статье выявляются особенности языковой политики Берлина на территории Эльзас-Лотарингии как одного из важнейших инструментов укоренения немецкой идентичности среди населения региона. Достижению официально заявленной цели «германизации» провинции препятствовало широкое распространение местных диалектов немецкого, а также сильные позиции французского языка на юго-западе Лотарингии. В отношении них Берлином были задействованы разные стратегии. Важнейшая роль отводилась реформе начального образования по прусскому образцу — краеугольному камню всякой политики в сфере языка. Значение «школьного вопроса» дополнительно подчеркивалось тем, что образование 95 % населения Эльзас-Лотарингии ограничивалось начальной ступенью. Реализация политики Берлина не была гладкой и столкнулась с протестами населения. Свою роль в защите прав франкофонов сыграла и католическая церковь. При этом германская языковая политика не носила того репрессивного характера, на который привычно указывала французская реваншистская традиция. В отношении французского языка были приняты многочисленные дискриминационные меры, но преподавание на нем во франкоязычных районах было сохранено. Статистика свидетельствует о значительном прогрессе в распространении немецкого в Эльзас-Лотарингии к началу XX в. Заслуга в этом принадлежит не только «прусскому учителю», но и миграционным процессам в провинции, а также развитию ее экономических связей с остальной Германией. Однако этот успех таил в себе парадокс: чем бо`льшими немцами ощущали себя эльзас-лотарингцы, тем острее ими воспринимались любые проявления дискриминации со стороны Берлина. Всё более широкое использование немецкого языка не оказалось тождественно полной германизации региона и его политической лояльности

description: Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is an essential nanoinstrument technique for several applications such as cell biology and nanoelectronics metrology and inspection. The need for statistically significant sample sizes means that data collection can be an extremely lengthy process in AFM. The use of a single AFM instrument is known for its very low speed and not being suitable for scanning large areas, resulting in very-low-throughput measurement. We address this challenge by parallelizing AFM instruments. The parallelization is achieved by miniaturizing the AFM instrument and operating many of them simultaneously. This nanoinstrument has the advantages that each miniaturized AFM can be operated independently and that the advances in the field of AFM, both in terms of speed and imaging modalities, can be implemented more easily. Moreover, a parallel AFM instrument also allows one to measure several physical parameters simultaneously; while one instrument measures nano-scale topography, another instrument can measure mechanical, electrical or thermal properties, making it a Lab-on-an-Instrument. In this paper, a proof of principle (PoP) of such a parallel AFM instrument has been demonstrated by analyzing the topography of large samples such as semiconductor wafers. This nanoinstrument provides new research opportunities in the nanometrology of wafers and nanolithography masks by enabling real die-to-die and wafer-level measurements and in cell biology by measuring the nano-scale properties of a large number of cells.

description: In many areas of physics, the propagation of wave packets carrying intrinsic angular momentum is generally influenced by spin-orbit interactions. This is the main mechanism behind spin Hall effects, which result in wave packets following spin-dependent trajectories. Spin Hall effects have been observed in several experiments for electrons in condensed matter systems and for light propagating in inhomogeneous optical media. Similar effects have also been predicted for wave packets propagating in inhomogeneous gravitational fields. We give a brief introduction to gravitational spin Hall effects, emphasizing the analogies with the spin Hall effect of light in optics. Furthermore, we review the most promising astrophysical avenues that could lead to experimental observations of the gravitational spin Hall effect.

description: The probability of (a) terminal infection and (b) spore yield per host in relation to the number of hemocytes per spore at control and warmer temperatures. (c) Considering just Daphnia that developed terminal infection, hemocyte number per spore had no effect on spore production (χ2 = 0.11, d.f. = 1, P = 0.739); points shown in (c) are a subset of the points shown in (b). Once the two outliers were removed (hemocytes per spore > 8), the effects of hemocytes per spore remained non-significant when predicting the probability of terminal infection (χ2 = 0.82, d.f. = 1, P = 0.365), spore yield per host (χ2 = 1.32, d.f. = 1, P = 0.251), and spore yield per host that developed terminal infection (χ2 = 1.10, d.f. = 1, P = 0.296). The solid and dashed lines indicate regressions for control and warmer treatments, respectively, predicted from GLMMs.

description: A major roadblock to scalable quantum computing is phase decoherence and energy relaxation caused by qubits interacting with defect-related two-level systems (TLS). Native oxides present on the surfaces of superconducting metals used in quantum devices are acknowledged to be a source of TLS that decrease qubit coherence times. Reducing microwave loss by surface engineering (i.e., replacing uncontrolled native oxide of superconducting metals with a thin, stable surface with predictable characteristics) can be a key enabler for pushing performance forward with devices of higher quality factor. In this work, we present a novel approach to replace the native oxide of niobium (typically formed in an uncontrolled fashion when its pristine surface is exposed to air) with an engineered oxide, using a room-temperature process that leverages Accelerated Neutral Atom Beam (ANAB) technology at 300 mm wafer scale. This ANAB beam is composed of a mixture of argon and oxygen, with tunable energy per atom, which is rastered across the wafer surface. The ANAB-engineered Nb-oxide thickness was found to vary from 2 nm to 6 nm depending on ANAB process parameters. Modeling of variable-energy XPS data confirm thickness and compositional control of the Nb surface oxide by the ANAB process. These results correlate well with those from transmission electron microscopy and X-ray reflectometry. Since ANAB is broadly applicable to material surfaces, the present study indicates its promise for modification of the surfaces of superconducting quantum circuits to achieve longer coherence times.

description: Gravitational lensing by large-scale structure significantly impacts observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB): it smooths the acoustic peaks in temperature and $E$-mode polarization power spectra, correlating previously uncorrelated modes; and it converts $E$-mode polarization into $B$-mode polarization. The act of measuring and removing the effect of lensing from CMB maps, or delensing, has been well studied in the context of $B$ modes, but little attention has been given to the delensing of the temperature and $E$ modes. In this paper, we model the expected delensed $T$ and $E$ power spectra to all orders in the lensing potential, demonstrating the sharpening of the acoustic peaks and a significant reduction in lens-induced power spectrum covariances. We then perform cosmological forecasts, demonstrating that delensing will yield improved sensitivity to parameters with upcoming surveys. We highlight the breaking of the degeneracy between the effective number of neutrino species and primordial helium fraction as a concrete application. We also show that delensing increases cosmological information as long as the measured lensing reconstruction is included in the analysis. We conclude that with future data, delensing will be crucial not only for primordial $B$-mode science but for a range of other observables as well.

description: Статья посвящена изучению подходов к описанию происхождения народа, которые представлены в диссертациях немецких историков, сотрудников Петербургской Академии наук Г. З. Байера и Г. Ф. Миллера. Миллер в своей диссертации «Происхождение народа и имени российского» использует подход, который можно назвать этногенетичеким. Этим он существенно отличается от своего старшего современника Г. З. Байера, в работах которого по данному вопросу не встречается фрагментов, свидетельствующих об интересе к этногенезу как таковому. В описании Миллера два предка русского народа — славяне и скандинавы — в течение долгого времени взаимодействовали друг с другом в восточнобалтийском регионе. Каждый из них (скандинавы — в особенности) обладал «славой», категорией, необходимой для исторического существования, славой, восходящей к древним легендарным временам и королям. Взаимодействие народов привело к слиянию, которое стало особенно интенсивным и практически необратимым в 862 г. после призвания Рюрика. Результатом этого слияния и стал русский народ, который наследует славу обоих предков. Однако с другой стороны Миллер описывает процесс рождения нового народа как простое и механическое «стирание различий», первоначально существовавших между славянами и скандинавами. Такой подход, упрощающий процесс этногенеза, и придающий слишком большое значение количественным соотношениям (при отсутствии точных данных об этих соотношениях), возможно, и стал одной из причин критики диссертации Г. Ф. Миллера.

description: The recently developed ab initio many-body theory of positron molecule binding [J. Hofierka et al., Nature, 606, 688 (2022)] is combined with the shifted pseudostates method [A. R. Swann and G. F. Gribakin, Phys. Rev. A 101, 022702 (2020)] to calculate positron scattering and annihilation rates on small molecules, namely H$_2$, N$_2$ and CH$_4$. The important effects of positron-molecule correlations are delineated. The method provides uniformly good results for annihilation rates on all the targets, from the simplest (H$_2$, for which only a sole previous calculation agrees with experiment), to larger targets, where high-quality calculations have not been available.

description: Recent work has explored using self-supervised learning (SSL) speech representations such as wav2vec2.0 as the representation medium in standard two-stage TTS, in place of conventionally used mel-spectrograms. It is however unclear which speech SSL is the better fit for TTS, and whether or not the performance differs between read and spontaneous TTS, the later of which is arguably more challenging. This study aims at addressing these questions by testing several speech SSLs, including different layers of the same SSL, in two-stage TTS on both read and spontaneous corpora, while maintaining constant TTS model architecture and training settings. Results from listening tests show that the 9th layer of 12-layer wav2vec2.0 (ASR finetuned) outperforms other tested SSLs and mel-spectrogram, in both read and spontaneous TTS. Our work sheds light on both how speech SSL can readily improve current TTS systems, and how SSLs compare in the challenging generative task of TTS.

description: In this paper, we propose an algorithm that estimates contact point and force simultaneously. We consider a collaborative robot equipped with proprioceptive sensors, in particular, joint torque sensors (JTSs) and a base force/torque (F/T) sensor. The proposed method has the following advantages. First, fast computation is achieved by proper preprocessing of robot meshes. Second, multi-contact can be identified with the aid of the base F/T sensor, while this is challenging when the robot is equipped with only JTSs. The proposed method is a modification of the standard particle filter to cope with mesh preprocessing and with available sensor data. In simulation validation, for a 7 degree-of-freedom robot, the algorithm runs at 2200Hz with 99.96% success rate for the single-contact case. In terms of the run-time, the proposed method was >=3.5X faster compared to the existing methods. Dual and triple contacts are also reported in the manuscript.

description: Pentahexoctite (PH) is a pure sp$^2$ hybridized planar carbon allotrope whose structure consists of a symmetric combination of pentagons, hexagons, and octagons. The proposed PH structure was shown to be an intrinsically metallic material exhibiting good mechanical and thermal stability. PH nanotubes (PHNTs) have also been proposed, and their properties were obtained from first principles calculations. Here, we carried out fully-atomistic simulations, combining reactive (ReaxFF) molecular dynamics (MD) and density functional theory (DFT) methods, to study the PHNTs elastic properties and fracture patterns. We have investigated the mechanical properties behavior as a function of the tube diameter and temperature regimes. Our results showed that the PHNTs, when subjected to large tensile strains, undergo abrupt structural transitions exhibiting brittle fracture patterns without a plastic regime.

description: The Pulkovo Compilation of Radial Velocities (PCRV) has been made to study the stellar kinematics in the local spiral arm. The PCRV contains weighted mean absolute radial velocities for 35 495 Hipparcos stars of various spectral types and luminosity classes over the entire celestial sphere mainly within 500 pc of the Sun. The median accuracy of the radial velocities obtained is 0.7 km s$^{-1}$. Results from 203 publications were used in the catalogue. Four of them were used to improve the radial velocities of standard stars from the IAU list. The radial velocities of 155 standard stars turned out to be constant within 0.3 km s$^{-1}$. These stars were used to analyze 47 768 mean radial velocities for 37 200 stars from 12 major publications ($\sim80\%$ of all the data used). Zero-point discrepancies and systematic dependences on radial velocity, $(B-V)$ color index, right ascension, and declination were found in radial velocity differences of the form "publication minus IAU list of standards". These discrepancies and dependences were approximated and taken into account when calculating the weighted mean radial velocities. 1128 stars whose independent radial-velocity determinations were available at least in three of these publications and agreed within 3 km s$^{-1}$ were chosen as the work list of secondary standards. Radial-velocity differences of the form "publication minus list of secondary standards" were used by analogy to correct the zero points and systematic dependences in the radial velocities from 33 more publications (~13\% of the data used). In addition, the radial velocities from 154 minor publications ($\sim7\%$ of the data used) pertaining to well-known instruments were used without any corrections.

description: Гепатит В — широко распространенная по всему миру инфекция вирусной этиологии, которая регулируется с помощью вакцинопрофилактики. За последние 25 лет были достигнуты значительные успехи в улучшении эпидемиологической ситуации по данной инфекции за счет реализации различных стратегий по вакцинации населения. Обширный пласт практических знаний и навыков по иммунизации позволил доказать, что оценка длительности и напряженности поствакцинального иммунитета является важным аспектом профилактических и противоэпидемиологических мероприятий, направленных на элиминацию вирусного гепатита В. В статье проводится оценка поствакцинального иммунитета против гепатита В улиц молодого возраста, проживающих на территории Санкт-Петербурга. У исследуемого контингента определялись уровни специфических антител к поверхностному антигену вируса гепатита В и длительность поствакцинального иммунитета. Выяснено, что взаимосвязь между уровнями анти-HBs и длительностью поствакцинального иммунитета не имела корреляционной взаимосвязи.

description: Extended reservoirs provide a framework for capturing macroscopic, continuum environments, such as metallic electrodes driving a current through a nanoscale contact, impurity, or material. We examine the application of this approach to periodically driven systems, specifically in the context of quantum transport. As with non--equilibrium steady states in time--independent scenarios, the current displays a Kramers' turnover including the formation of a plateau region that captures the physical, continuum limit response. We demonstrate that a simple stability criteria identifies an appropriate relaxation rate to target this physical plateau. Using this approach, we study quantum transport through a periodically driven tilted lattice coupled to two metallic reservoirs held at a finite bias and temperature. We use this model to benchmark the extended reservoir approach and assess the stability criteria. The approach recovers well--understood physical behavior in the limit of weak system--reservoir coupling. Extended reservoirs enable addressing strong coupling and non--linear response as well, where we analyze how transport responds to the dynamics inside the driven lattice. These results set the foundations for the use of extended reservoir approach for periodically driven, quantum systems, such as many--body Floquet states.

description: We demonstrate an all-optical method for manipulating the magnetization in a 1-mm YIG (yttrium-iron-garnet) sphere placed in a $\sim0.17\,$T uniform magnetic field. An harmonic of the frequency comb delivered by a multi-GHz infrared laser source is tuned to the Larmor frequency of the YIG sphere to drive magnetization oscillations, which in turn give rise to a radiation field used to thoroughly investigate the phenomenon. The radiation damping issue that occurs at high frequency and in the presence of highly magnetizated materials, has been overcome by exploiting magnon-photon strong coupling regime in microwave cavities. Our findings demonstrate an effective technique for ultrafast control of the magnetization vector in optomagnetic materials via polarization rotation and intensity modulation of an incident laser beam. We eventually get a second-order susceptibility value of $\sim10^{-7}$ cm$^2$/MW for single crystal YIG.

description: Известно более 200 аминокислот, которые имеют природное происхождение, среди них только 20 являются протеиногенными. Протеиногенные аминокислоты и их метаболиты выполняют важные физиологические функции в процессах нейротрансмиссии, нейротрофики, нейропротекции. Многие аминокислоты оказывают неврологическое воздействие через рецепторы N-метил-D-аспартата (NMDA), одни — непосредственно (глутамин, аспартат, глицин), другие — опосредовано (аланин). Ионотропные рецепторы NMDA имеют весомое значение в правильной передаче нервных сигналов, регулируя продолжительность возбуждающего потенциала. Исходя из этого, протеиногенные аминокислоты и их метаболиты играют важную роль в функционировании нервной системы. В работе проведен комплексный анализ молекулярных механизмов воздействия протеиногенных заменимых аминокислот и их производных на основе молекулярных, биологических, физиологических данных из научной литературы.
