description: We investigate the recovery of structures from large-area, low dose exposures that distribute the dose over many identical copies of an object. The reconstruction is done via a maximum likelihood approach that does neither require to identify nor align the individual particles. We also simulate small molecular adsorbates on graphene and demonstrate the retrieval of images with atomic resolution from \add{large area and} extremely low dose raw data. Doses as low as 5 $e^{-}/$Å$^{2}$ are sufficient if all symmetries (translations, rotations and mirrors) of the supporting membrane are exploited to retrieve the structure of individual adsorbed molecules. We compare different optimization schemes, consider mixed molecules and adsorption sites, and requirements on the amount of data. We further demonstrate that the maximum likelihood approach is only count limited by requiring at least three independent counts per entity.Finally, we demonstrate that the approach works with real experimental data and in presence of aberrations.

Patent Protection under Chinese Law

Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1987

description: When the People’s Republic of China promulgated its Patent Law on March 12, 1984, it announced to other nations its willingness to accept and protect the notion of intellectual property. At the same time, China expressed its hope that a fully developed patent system would enable it to acquire technology from the rest of the world to enhance its modernization efforts. Prior to enacting a patent law, China had taken preliminary steps to protect intellectual property by joining the World Intellectual Property Organization in March, 1983 and by signing the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property in December, 1984. The Patent Law itself took effect on April 1, 19852 and the first patents were granted at a meeting of the Chinese Patent Bureau on December 28, 1985.3 Although the Patent Bureau had received thousands of applications, it only granted 143 patents at that time.

Magnetic Monopoles As a New Solution to Strong CP Problem
Creators: name: Zhang, H.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1992
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A non-perturbative solution to strong CP problem is proposed. It is shown that the gauge orbit space with gauge potentials and gauge tranformations restricted on the space boundary in non-abelian gauge theories with a $θ$ term has a magnetic monopole structure if there is a magnetic monopole in the ordinary space. The Dirac's quantization condition in the corresponding quantum theories ensures that the vacuum angle $θ$ in the gauge theories must be quantized. The quantization rule is derived as $θ=2π/n~(n\neq 0)$ with n being the topological charge of the magnetic monopole. Therefore, we conclude that the strong CP problem is automatically solved non-perturbatively with the existence of a magnetic monopole of charge $\pm 1$ with $θ=\pm 2π$. This is also true when the total magnetic charge of monopoles are very large ($|n|\geq 10^92π$) if it is consistent with the abundance of magnetic monopoles. This implies that the fact that the strong CP violation can be only so small or vanishing may be a signal for the existence of magnetic monopoles.

description: The Project RACCOON software was developed to automatically generate PDB files for linear polymers, polypeptides and polymer peptide conjugates. Previously published software cannot easily represent polypeptide strands with converging termini. Project RACCOON also offers the advantage of combining multiple modeling resolutions within one system. Although this software was explicitly developed for C2 symmetric polymer peptide conjugates introduced by Otter with the OPLS-AA/M force field, its application is not limited to this molecule class. PDB files can be created for all polymers, polypeptides with natural and non-natural amino acids, and other macromolecules combined with any force field.
Rapid variability of BL Lac 0925+504: interstellar scintillation induced?

description: Analysis of rapid variability at 4.85 GHz for the BL BLac object 0925+504 is presented and discussed. The structure functions (SF) are investigated with both refractive and weak interstellar scintillation (RISS/WISS) models analytically. Parameters obtained with these models are quantitatively compared, suggesting that the emission region of IDV is remarkably compact and the responsible interstellar scintillation medium (ISM) lies very close to the observer. Furthermore possible evidence of annual modulation of the variability timescales is detected in this source. Our findings indicate that the observed rapid variability in 0925+504 is predominantly caused by a scattering screen located along the line of sight to the source, at a distance of $\sim 110\,pc$ to the observer.

description: We construct a new class of phenomenological equations of state for homogeneous matter for use in simulations of hot and dense matter in local thermodynamic equilibrium. We construct a functional form which respects experimental, observational and theoretical constraints on the nature of matter in various density and temperature regimes. Our equation of state matches (i) the virial coefficients expected from nucleon-nucleon scattering phase shifts, (ii) experimental measurements of nuclear masses and charge radii, (iii) observations of neutron star radii, (iv) theory results on the equation of state of neutron matter near the saturation density, and (v) theory results on the evolution of the EOS at finite temperatures near the saturation density. Our analytical model allows one to compute the variation in the thermodynamic quantities based on the uncertainties in the nature of the nucleon-nucleon interaction. Finally, we perform a correction to ensure the equation of state is causal at all densities, temperatures, and electron fractions.

description: In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the strong Lorentz-contracted electromagnetic fields are capable of producing copious numbers of lepton pairs through the two-photon mechanism. Monte Carlo techniques have been developed that allow the exact calculation of production by this mechanism when a semi-classical approximation is made to the motion of the two ions. Here, we develop a hybrid Monte Carlo technique that enables us to calculate the impact parameter dependence of the two-photon mechanism for lepton-pair production, and by using this result, we obtain the probability distribution for multiple-pair production as a function of impact parameter. Computations are performed for S$+$Au and Pb$+$Pb systems at 200 A GeV and 160 A GeV, respectively. We also compare our results with the equivalent photon approximation and elucidate the differences.

description: This comment will provide my personal observations on the likely content of the law on copyrights that China intends to promul- gate. My observations represent only my own opinions and should not be taken as Chinese government policy. The Chinese government established a State Copyright Bureau (Guojia Banquan Ju) in 1985. One of its senior officials formally declared at that time that it would be “not long” before the copyright law was promulgated. After the copyright law is promulgated, China will join one or more of the international copyright organizations as soon as the conditions are ripe.

Theory of Strain-Induced Confinement in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Monolayers

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: Recent experimental studies of out-of-plane straining geometries of transition metal dichalchogenide (TMD) monolayers have demonstrated sufficient band gap renormalisation for device application such as single photon emitters. Here, a simple continuum-mechanical plate-theory approach is used to estimate the topography of TMD monolayers layered atop nanopillar arrays. From such geometries, the induced conduction band potential and band gap renormalisation is given, demonstrating a curvature of the potential that is independent of the height of the deforming nanopillar. Additionally, with a semi-classical WKB approximation, the expected escape rate of electrons in the strain potential may be calculated as a function of the height of the deforming nanopillar. This approach is in accordance with experiment, supporting recent findings suggesting that increasing nanopillar height decreases the linewidth of the single photon emitters observed at the tip of the pillar, and predicting the shift in photon energy with nanopillar height for systems with consistent topography.

description: Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the People’s Republic of China and the United States in 1979, the Sino-U.S. relationship has undergone substantial development. In the legal field, for example, a series of agreements have been reached on such diverse issues as nuclear energy cooperation, avoidance of double taxation, scientific and technical cooperation, and exploitation of marine resources. Over the past few years, the legal communities of both countries, including lawyers, judges, and law professors, have been exchanging visits with increasing frequency. Teachers and students from each country are teaching and studying in law schools and universities of the other. Lawyers have become increasingly involved in trade and economic transactions between the two nations. Increas- ing numbers of conferences, symposia, and seminars on legal and economic questions are being held jointly by scholars and practitioners from both countries. In short, legal ties between China and the United States have become stronger and broader than ever before.

description: This paper presents an experimental performance study of implementations of three different types of algorithms for solving band matrix systems of linear algebraic equations (SLAEs) after parabolic nonlinear partial differential equations -- direct, symbolic, and iterative, the former two of which were introduced in Veneva and Ayriyan (arXiv:1710.00428v2). An iterative algorithm is presented -- the strongly implicit procedure (SIP), also known as the Stone method. This method uses the incomplete LU (ILU(0)) decomposition. An application of the Hotelling-Bodewig iterative algorithm is suggested as a replacement of the standard forward-backward substitutions. The upsides and the downsides of the SIP method are discussed. The complexity of all the investigated methods is presented. Performance analysis of the implementations is done using the high-performance computing (HPC) clusters "HybriLIT" and "Avitohol". To that purpose, the experimental setup and the results from the conducted computations on the individual computer systems are presented and discussed.

In particular, we consider one of the ultimate goals of this program: the understanding of the actual fermion mass spectrum. It is pointed out that if quarks and leptons are composite, their masses may be set by the physics of the preons and their interactions in such a manner as to differ considerably from the Yukawa form $m_f \propto v$ (where $v$ is the electroweak symmetry breaking scale) or analogous forms involving $v$. Some ideas of how this might work are given, and some implications are discussed.

description: We demonstrate a robust, scale-factor-free vector magnetometer, which uses a closed-loop frequency-locking scheme to simultaneously track Zeeman-split resonance pairs of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond. Compared with open-loop methodologies, this technique is robust against fluctuations in temperature, resonance linewidth, and contrast; offers a three-order-of-magnitude increase in dynamic range; and allows for simultaneous interrogation of multiple transition frequencies. By directly detecting the resonance frequencies of NV centers aligned along each of the diamond's four tetrahedral crystallographic axes, we perform full vector reconstruction of an applied magnetic field.

China’s Quest for Legal Modernity
Creators: name: Gellhorn, Walter
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1987

description: Chinese law today is in a state of amazing efflorescence. Systematization of legal propositions is not, however, a newcomer in China nor is law administration a lately developed concern of an authorita- rian state. On the contrary, awareness of laws and of lawfulness existed long ago. Documents of the later years of the Zhou dynasty (1122-256 B.C.) evince considerable sophistication about legal obligations, and the Emperor in that distant time left little doubt about who was in charge of law administration throughout the imperial realm. Instances of technically advanced lawmaking in Chinese antiquity occasionally strike the eye. Centuries ago, for example, the legal rights and duties of mortgagors and mortgagees had been clearly delineated. In that instance the purpose was not to resolve conflicts between opposing interests, but to assist the imperial tax collector in identifying whom he should pursue. The bulk of ancient law, in fact, seems to have been designed to reinforce the duties owed to one’s elders and betters, and above all to the Emperor; inter-personal relations were largely left to the customary regulations of locality and family – bearing always in mind the generally accepted Confucian proposition that the loftier and older a person became, the greater became the likelihood of his being right. Even under the penal law of the early twentieth century, a father could kill his son without incurring much more than a reproof and a warning, while a son who killed his father, or even his only slightly older brother, faced a very hard time. Only the killing of friend by friend came to court on an even keel, so to speak. Matters of little imperial concern – and those included most of what is nowadays regarded as the Civil as distinct from the Criminal Law – were left to supposedly shared moral values coupled with private lawmaking through the formation of contracts (both commercial and matrimonial). The processes of conciliation, adjustment, and compromise, rather than the rulings of state organs, were relied upon if later disputes were to arise; custom, not law, was the determinant of rights.

Non-Perturbative Canonical Quantization of Minisuperspace Models: Bianchi Types I and II

description: We carry out the quantization of the full type I and II Bianchi models following the non-perturbative canonical quantization program. These homogeneous minisuperspaces are completely soluble, i.e., it is possible to obtain the general solution to their classical equations of motion in an explicit form. We determine the sectors of solutions that correspond to different spacetime geometries, and prove that the parameters employed to describe the different physical solutions define a good set of coordinates in the phase space of these models. Performing a transformation from the Ashtekar variables to this set of phase space coordinates, we endow the reduced phase space of each of these systems with a symplectic structure. The symplectic forms obtained for the type I and II Bianchi models are then identified as those of the cotangent bundles over ${\cal L}^+_{(+,+)}\times S^2\times S^1$ and ${\cal L}^+_{(+,+)}\times S^1$, respectively. We construct a closed *-algebra of Dirac observables in each of these reduced phase spaces, and complete the quantization program by finding unitary irreducible representations of these algebras. The real Dirac observables are represented in this way by self-adjoint operators, and the spaces of quantum physical states are provided with a Hilbert structure.

Global Quantization in Gauge Orbit Space with Magnetic Monopoles As a Solution to Strong CP Problem and the Relevance to $U_A(1)$ Problem
Creators: name: Zhang, Huazhong
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1992
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We generalize our discussions and give more general physical applications of a new solution to the strong CP problem with magnetic monopoles as originally proposed by the author$^1$. Especially, we will discuss about the global topological structure in the relevant gauge orbit spaces to be clarified. As it is shown that in non-abelian gauge theories with a $θ$ term, the induced gauge orbit space with gauge potentials and gauge functions restricted on the space boundary $S^2$ has a magnetic monopole structure and the gauge orbit space has a vortex structure if there is a magnetic monopole in the ordinary space. The Dirac's quantization conditions in the quantum theories ensure that the vacuum angle $θ$ in the gauge theories must be quantized. The quantization rule is given by $θ=2π/n~(n\neq 0)$ with n being the topological charge of the magnetic monopole. Therefore, the strong CP problem is automatically solved in the presence of a magnetic monopole of charge $\pm 1$ with $θ=\pm 2π$, or magnetic monopoles of very large total topological charge ($|n|\geq 10^92π$) if it is consistent with the abundance of magnetic monopoles. Where in the first case with a magnetic monopole of topological charge 1 or -1, we mean the strong CP-violation can be only very small by the measurements implemented so far. Since $θ=\pm 2π$ correspond to different monopole sectors, the CP can not be conserved exactly in strong interactions in this case. In the second case, the strong CP cannot be conserved either for large but finite n. The fact that the strong CP-violation measured so far can be only so small or vanishing may be a signal for the existence of magnetic monopoles. We also conjecture that the parity violation and CP violation in weak interaction fundamentally may intimately

description: The acoustic startle reflex (ASR) that can be induced by a loud sound stimulus can be used as a versatile tool to, e.g., estimate hearing thresholds or identify subjective tinnitus percepts in rodents. These techniques are based on the fact that the ASR amplitude can be suppressed by a pre-stimulus of lower, non-startling intensity, an effect named pre-pulse inhibition (PPI). For hearing threshold estimation, pure tone pre-stimuli of varying amplitudes are presented before an intense noise burst serving as startle stimulus. The amount of suppression of the ASR amplitude as a function of the pre-stimulus intensity can be used as a behavioral correlate to determine the hearing ability. For tinnitus assessment, the pure-tone pre-stimulus is replaced by a gap of silence in a narrowband noise background, a paradigm termed GPIAS (gap-pre-pulse inhibition of the acoustic startle response). A proper application of these paradigms depend on a reliable measurement of the ASR amplitudes, an exact stimulus presentation in terms of frequency and intensity. Here we introduce a novel open source solution for the construction of a low-cost ASR setup for the above mentioned purpose. The complete software for data acquisition and stimulus presentation is written in Python 3.6 and is provided as an anaconda package. Furthermore, we provide a construction plan for the sensory system based on low-cost hardware components. Exemplary data show that the ratios (1-PPI) of the pre and post trauma ASR amplitudes can be well described by a lognormal distribution being in good accordance to previous studies with already established setups. Hence, the open access solution described here will help to further establish the ASR method in many laboratories and thus facilitate and standardize research in animal models of tinnitus or hearing loss.

description: RPA calculations, based on the cranked shell model, are performed for superdeformed \dy\ in which five excited bands have been found recently. We show that characteristic features of the observed dynamical moments of inertia are well accounted for by explicitly taking the octupole correlations into account. Importance of the interplay between rotation and octupole vibrations is stressed, and it is suggested that one of the observed excited bands might be a collective octupole vibration built on the superdeformed yrast band.

description: The postanesthesia care unit (PACU) environment must function smoothly as a critical recovery area for monitoring of immediate postoperative patients. Timely responsiveness to complications is imperative to ensure patient safety. Following postanesthesia observation, a patient is discharged from the PACU to home or is admitted to the hospital. If this transition is delayed by excessive discharge times or poorly managed patient adverse events, it can cause major bottlenecks and issues with throughput for the perioperative setting. This project aims to study the present workflow in the PACU, identify gaps in the workflow and provide recommendations to perioperative leadership.  Current PACU practices were observed using an assessment tool to establish the barriers to a streamlined PACU workflow at a large urban academic hospital. Reoccurring workflow gaps were determined and collected data was presented to perioperative leadership with recommendations.
On the Definition of Averagely Trapped Surfaces

description: Previously suggested definitions of averagely trapped surfaces are not well-defined properties of 2-surfaces, and can include surfaces in flat space-time. A natural definition of averagely trapped surfaces is that the product of the null expansions be positive on average. A surface is averagely trapped in the latter sense if and only if its area $A$ and Hawking mass $M$ satisfy the isoperimetric inequality $16πM^2 > A$, with similar inequalities existing for other definitions of quasi-local energy.

description: Requirement that the vacuum expectation values of Higgs fields immediately after the phase transition be large enough imposes constraints upon the parameters of the minimal supersymmetric model. In particular, one obtains the upper bound on the lighter CP-even Higgs mass and the soft supersymmetry breaking scale for different values of the top quark mass.

description: This change initiative involved the inception of a trial involving peer observation of teaching (POT), executed solely by the writer who received facilitative aid from a corresponding team on the trial site. The rationale for selecting this project was the impetus for developing augmented quality assurance in teaching and learning at a higher education medical organization in the Middle East. The highest aim of this impetus was to ensure that education be offered to the ultimate standards, evaluated over a continuum, preferably by POT. In this instance, developments were in the preliminary burgeoning stage. The HSE’s change model and the CIPP evaluation model were employed to furnish the project with direction. Prior to its implementation, a survey was transmitted to 15 faculty volunteers, to evoke their perceptions and attitudes of POT. A proper training tutorial was then provided to volunteers, coaching them through both the observation and feedback processes. Subsequently, they underwent one actual POT session, in which the 9 participants, bar one, assumed both observer and observee roles. Next, focus group interviews were carried out with the participants (n=9). Analysis of both data sets yielded consistent results with each other and the literature, indicating strong favourable responses for the implementation of POT with a formative, developmental approach using a systematically precise observation instrument. Lastly, the evaluation of this change initiative simultaneously substantiated the benefits of POT and enabled the devising of a bespoke model with the capacity for its complete embedding within the organization.

description: It is debated whether close-in giant planets can form in-situ and if not, which mechanisms are responsible for their migration. One of the observable tests for migration theories is the current value of the angle between the stellar equatorial plane and the orbital plane, called the obliquity. After the main migration mechanism has ended, the obliquity and the semi-major axis keep on evolving due to the combined effects of tides and magnetic braking. The observed correlation between effective temperature and measured projected obliquity in known short-period systems has been taken as evidence of such mechanisms being at play. Our aim is to produce an improved model for the tidal evolution of the obliquity, including all the components of the dynamical tide for circular misaligned systems. This model takes into account the strong variations in structure and rotation of stars during their evolution, and their consequences for the efficiency of tidal dissipation. We use an analytical formulation for the frequency-averaged dissipation in convective layers for each mode, depending only on global stellar parameters and rotation. For typical hot-Jupiters orbital configurations, the obliquity is generally damped on a much shorter timescale than the semi-major axis. The final outcome of tidal evolution is also very sensitive to the initial conditions, with Jupiter-mass planets being either quickly destroyed or brought on more distant orbit, depending on the initial ratio of planetary orbital momentum to stellar spin momentum. However we find that everything else being the same, the evolution of the obliquity around low-mass stars with a thin convective zone is not slower than around those with a thicker convective zone. On the contrary, we find that more massive stars, remaining faster rotator throughout their main-sequence, produce more efficient dissipation.

Imperial China’s Border Control Law
Creators: name: Edwards, R. Randle
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law

description: The passage of persons, things, and even ideas across China’s land and sea boundaries was subject to a comprehensive network of rules promulgated by the Qing state (1644-1911) and its predecessors. This intricate regulatory system was of functional importance in the management of China’s relations with foreign countries, and it offers rich food for comparative thinking about the evolution of rules for interstate conduct. Yet this normative system has largely escaped study, in part because law was never highly regarded by the official chroniclers of Chinese history and in part because the rules themselves are widely scattered throughout the numerous compendia of laws and regulations. This article will introduce and examine the border control regulations and procedures of the Qing Dynasty. Selected cases will be used to illustrate the dynamic process of interstate lawmaking in China’s relations with some of its East Asian neighbors in the later imperial era.

description: We incorporate time reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) effects into the theory of compound nuclear reactions. We show that the only meaningful test of TRSB in the overlapping resonances regime is through the study of cross-section correlations. The effect is channel-dependent. In the isolated resonance regime, we employ $K$-matrix theory to show the impact of TRSB using the fact that when only one eigen-channel participates in populating and depopulating the compound resonance.

description: Confined two-dimensional assemblies of floating particles, known as granular rafts, are prone to develop a highly nonlinear response under compression. Here we investigate the transition to the friction-dominated jammed state and map the gradual development of the internal stress profile with flexible pressure sensors distributed along the raft surface. Surprisingly, we observe that the surface stress screening builds up much more slowly than previously thought and that the typical screening distance later dramatically decreases. We explain this behavior in terms of progressive friction mobilization, where the full amplitude of the frictional forces is only reached after a macroscopic local displacement. At further stages of compression, rafts of large length-to-width aspect ratio experience much stronger screenings than the full mobilization limit described by the Janssen's model. We solve this paradox using a simple mathematical analysis and show that such enhanced screening can be attributed to a localized compaction front, essentially shielding the far field from compressive stresses.

description: Topological crystalline insulator (TCI) is a recently-discovered topological phase of matter. It possesses multiple Dirac surface states, which are protected by the crystal symmetry. This is in contrast to the time reversal symmetry that is operative in the well-known topological insulators. In the presence of a Zeeman field and/or strain, the multiple Dirac surface states are gapped. The high-Chern-number quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) state is predicted to emerge if the chemical potential resides in all the Zeeman gaps. Here, we use molecular beam epitaxy to grow 12 double layer (DL) pure and Cr-doped SnTe (111) thin film on heat-treated SrTiO3 (111) substrate using a quintuple layer of insulating (Bi0.2Sb0.8)2Te3 topological insulator as a buffer film. The Hall traces of Cr-doped SnTe film at low temperatures display square hysteresis loops indicating long-range ferromagnetic order with perpendicular anisotropy. The Curie temperature of the 12DL Sn0.9Cr0.1Te film is ~ 110 K. Due to the chemical potential crossing the bulk valence bands, the anomalous Hall resistance of 12DL Sn0.9Cr0.1Te film is substantially lower than the predicted quantized value (~1/4 h/e2). It is possible that with systematic tuning the chemical potential via chemical doping and electrical gating, the high-Chern-number QAH state can be realized in the Cr-doped SnTe (111) thin film.
