description: In this paper, we study multi-armed bandit problems in explore-then-commit setting. In our proposed explore-then-commit setting, the goal is to identify the best arm after a pure experimentation (exploration) phase and exploit it once or for a given finite number of times. We identify that although the arm with the highest expected reward is the most desirable objective for infinite exploitations, it is not necessarily the one that is most probable to have the highest reward in a single or finite-time exploitations. Alternatively, we advocate the idea of risk-aversion where the objective is to compete against the arm with the best risk-return trade-off. Then, we propose two algorithms whose objectives are to select the arm that is most probable to reward the most. Using a new notion of finite-time exploitation regret, we find an upper bound for the minimum number of experiments before commitment, to guarantee an upper bound for the regret. As compared to existing risk-averse bandit algorithms, our algorithms do not rely on hyper-parameters, resulting in a more robust behavior in practice, which is verified by the numerical evaluation.

Thermodynamical description of a family of partially relaxed stellar systems

description: We examine the thermodynamical properties of a family of partially relaxed, anisotropic stellar systems, derived earlier from the Boltzmann entropy under the assumption that a third quantity Q is conserved in addition to the total energy and the total number of stars. We now show that the family of models conforms to the paradigm of the gravothermal catastrophe, which is expected to occur (in the presence of adequate energy transport mechanisms) when the one-parameter equilibrium sequence attains sufficiently high values of the concentration parameter; these are the values for which the models are well fitted by the R^(1/4) law. In the intermediate concentration regime the models belonging to the sequence exhibit significant deviations from the R^(1/4) law. Curiously, in the low-concentration regime, the global thermodynamical temperature associated with the models becomes negative when the models become too anisotropic so that they are unstable against the radial orbit instability; this latter behavior, while offering a new clue to the physical interpretation of the radial orbit instability, is at variance with respect to the low-concentration limit of the classical case of the isotropic, isothermal sphere investigated by Bonnor (1956) and Lynden-Bell & Wood (1968).

description: Spectroscopic abundance determinations for stars spanning a Hubble time in age are necessary in order to unambiguously determine the evolutionary histories of galaxies. Using FORS1 in Multi-Object Spectroscopy mode on ANTU (UT1) at the ESO-VLT on Paranal we obtained near infrared spectra from which we measured the equivalent widths of the two strongest Ca II triplet lines to determine metal abundances for a sample of Red Giant Branch stars, selected from ESO-NTT optical (I, V-I) photometry of three nearby, Local Group, galaxies: the Sculptor Dwarf Spheroidal, the Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal and the Dwarf Irregular NGC 6822. The summed equivalent width of the two strongest lines in the Ca II triplet absorption line feature, centered at 8500A, can be readily converted into an [Fe/H] abundance using the previously established calibrations by Armandroff & Da Costa (1991) and Rutledge, Hesser & Stetson (1997). We measured metallicities for 37 stars in Sculptor, 32 stars in Fornax, and 23 stars in NGC 6822, yielding more precise estimates of the metallicity distribution functions for these galaxies than it is possible to obtain photometrically. In the case of NGC 6822, this is the first direct measurement of the abundances of the intermediate-age and old stellar populations. We find metallicity spreads in each galaxy which are broadly consistent with the photometric width of the Red Giant Branch, although the abundances of individual stars do not always appear to correspond to their colour. This is almost certainly predominantly due to a highly variable star formation rate with time in these galaxies, which results in a non-uniform, non-globular-cluster-like, evolution of the Ca/Fe ratio.

description: We have constructed a two dimensional theory dual to 3D asymptotically flat Supergravity in presence of two supercharges with(out) internal $R-$symmetry. The duals in both the cases are identified with chiral Wess-Zumino-Witten models. Further gauging the theories, we show that the dual of the one without $R-$symmetry is invariant under the well known ${\cal{N}}=2$ SuperBMS$_3$ introduced in Banerjee et.al. 1609.09210 , while for the one with $R-$symmetry, the dual is invariant under the most generic, so far unknown, quantum ${\cal{N}}=2$ SuperBMS$_3$ symmetry. We have also commented on the phase space description of the duals.

title: Green Performance Evaluation of Airport Buildings using Data-driven Learning Approaches

Subjects: subject: airport buildings

subject: green performance evaluation

description: The global shift towards sustainability in recent decades have marked an increased environmental attention in the aviation sector. In addition to the aircraft emissions, the airport's built environment, throughout its life cycle, significantly contributes to the sector's overall environmental impacts. However, airport buildings have received arguably minimal sectoral attention in comparison to that of the aircrafts from an environmental standpoint. With over 40,000 existing numbers worldwide, airports can cause significant environmental impacts, but they are overlooked by both the built environment and the aviation sectors. There are no mature green building rating tools for assessing the green performance of airports' built environment at its different life-cycle stages. With less than one per cent of global green-certifications, the airports miss out on crucial tools, such as frameworks, primary datasets, and learning models that are essential for a comprehensive green performance evaluation. This research aims to develop an airport-specific green performance evaluation model that can be translated into a practical tool to assist informed decision making for airport operators and facility managers. This thesis utilises both quantitative and qualitative methodologies to address the problem of green performance evaluation of airport buildings in a sequential approach based on the following three phases. Phase 1 - Proposing a green airport assessment framework unique to airport buildings. Phase 2 - Creating an airport environmental dataset and constructing a supervised machine learning model for its green performance evaluation. Phase 3 - Constructing semi-supervised machine learning models to reduce human dependency and developing a suitable green airport rating tool. This thesis proposes a green airport assessment framework by considering the existing categories and environmental indicators present in Green Building Rating Tools (GBRTs) used for current green airport evaluation, and the important environmental indicators mentioned in airport sustainability reports that comply with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards. These environmental indicators and categories are combined into a framework based on theoretical approaches, such as five elements, systems, and grounded theory. The developed framework comprising of built-environment categories such as energy, water, wastewater, emissions, and their corresponding key performance indicators forms a vital basis for the construction of green performance evaluation models for airport buildings.

 Brachys carbonata LeConte 1859:252.
 Pachyschelus carbonatus (LeConte), Nicolay and Weiss 1920:139.
 This name has been been in synonymy under Pachyschelus laevigatus since the review of Nicolay and Weiss (1920). At the urging of Stanley Wellso, I examined the type and found it to be a species of Leiopleura, vindicating LeConte’s initial judgement that it was distinct. This raises the problem of the specimen’s origin, because it has apparently never been recollected in the United States and the only other known U.S. Leiopleura is the Antillean L. otero (Fisher) which occurs in southern Florida (Nelson et al. 1981). It is possible—and at this point more likely—that the specimen is mislabeled and that it is Central or South American in origin, although it does not match Central American species known to me. Its inclusion in the fauna of the United States should be considered hypothetical.

description: This paper reports new, more sensitive observations of nine of the eleven extrastatistical signals in the Megachannel Extraterrestrial Assay (META). These extrastatistical signals had all of the expected characteristics of a transmission from an extraterrestrial transmitter, except that they did not repeat. Cordes, Lazio, & Sagan showed that this lack of repeatability could be explained by the high detection thresholds used in the reobservations of these candidates combined with interstellar scintillation of intrinsically steady sources. We use the Cordes, Lazio, & Sagan methodology, correcting an error in the original presentation, and our new observations to rule out this scintillation hypothesis at a confidence level of at least 97.8% (for the case of an intrinsically weak source) to a level in excess of 99% (if the source strengths are comparable to that favored by Cordes, Lazio, & Sagan. We also demonstrate that gravitational microlensing cannot account for the initial detection of these candidate signals nor is gravitational lensing likely to play a role in future SETI programs. We conclude that the META candidates do not reflect a large population of powerful, strong beacons.

description: There are indications that some theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking also feature a light scalar in their spectrum, with a mass comparable to the one of the Goldstone modes. In this paper, we perform the one-loop renormalization of a theory of Goldstone modes invariant under a chiral $SU(n)\times SU(n)$ symmetry group coupled to a generic scalar singlet. We employ the background field method, together with the heat kernel expansion, to get an expression for the effective action at one loop and single out the anomalous dimensions, which can be read off from the second Seeley-DeWitt coefficient. As a relevant application, we use our master formula to renormalize chiral-scale perturbation theory, an alternative to $SU(3)$ chiral perturbation theory where the $f_0(500)$ meson is interpreted as a dilaton. Based on our results, we briefly discuss strategies to test and discern both effective field theories using lattice simulations.

description: Magnetohydrodynamics is an important tool to study the dynamics of plasma Space Physics. In this context, we introduce a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic solver with divergence-cleaning in the adaptive multiresolution CARMEN code. The numerical scheme is based on a finite volume discretization that ensures the conservation of physical quantities. The adaptive multiresolution approach allows for automatic identification of local structures in the numerical solution and thus provides an adaptive mesh refined only in regions where the solution needs more improved resolution. We assess the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic CARMEN code and compare its results with the ones from the well-known FLASH code.

description: We measure the angular clustering of ~2000 radio sources in The Bootes Deep Field, covering 5.3 deg^2 down to S(1.4 GHz)=0.2 mJy. With reference to work by Blake & Wall, we show that the size distribution of multi-component radio galaxies dominates the overall clustering signal, and that its amplitude extrapolates smoothly from their measurements above 5 mJy. The upper limits on any true galaxy-galaxy clustering are consistent with the clustering of the sub-mJy radio-loud AGN being effectively diluted by the more weakly-clustered IRAS-type starburst galaxies. Source count models imply that the survey contains around 400 of the latter galaxies above 0.2 mJy out to z ~ 1 to 2. Measurement of their clustering must await their identification via the optical and infrared data due on this field.

description: The late 1980s saw the onset of a rapid expansion of Chinese immigration into Australia. While this influx of Chinese migrants has produced a proliferation of research on the more affluent migrants from Hong Kong and Taiwan, studies on migrants especially women from the People's Republic of China (PRC) have remained few and far between. Among those few studies on PRC-born migrant women, all of them identified settlement stress and its health implications as a major concern among PRC-born migrant, yet there has been little concerted effort on why this is the case, particularly in the area of health needs and solutions. Considering the increasing presence of PRC-born migrant women in Australia, there is a clear need for a comprehensive in-depth investigation into their settlement stress, to address their social and health needs and to provide solutions. This study aims to examine in-depth the PRC-born migrant women's settlement experience in Brisbane, focusing especially on their stress, social and health needs. This study employed both qualitative and quantitative methods. Since this study paid more attention to these migrant women's own life experiences, it is mainly a qualitative one, using informant interview, focus group and in-depth interviews to explore how best their stress could be alleviated. Quantitative method is based on secondary data analysis to provide a community profile of PRC-born migrant women in Brisbane and Queensland. This study firstly draws on literature reviews to explain historical, social, cultural and gender based factors underpinning PRC-born migrant women's settlement stress and health status. Findings reviews that settlement stress comes from social isolation and loneliness; cultural difficulties; lack of support prior to and after childbirth, as well as assistance with childcare; conflicts in both marital and familial relations; academic stress; and finally, problems in utilising public transport. Particularly, this study highlights that downward mobility; barriers to access health services; and language barriers are a major source of stress and the cause of health problems for PRC-born migrant women when settling in Brisbane. As strategies, this study adapts health promotion strategies named as empowerment framework and Ottawa Charter action framework to address the needs highlighted in this study. Settlement stress affects health particularly mental health. Strategies provided in this study can also help migrant women from other non-English speaking countries. More significantly, this study encourages governments and service providers to pay more attention to migrant women's settlement processes in order to help them integrate into Australian society smoothly and quickly.

description: We present a method to calculate $ν\barν$ energy losses from neutron star crusts, which automatically takes into account for collective effects, and allows to calculate the total emissivity without a separate consideration of particular processes. We show that the formula we obtain describe the known results for the emissivity due to plasmon decay and Bremsstrahlung from degenerate electrons, when one of this processes dominates. In the case of low temperatures, our formula gives a suppression of the electron vector weak-current contribution to $ν\barν$ Bremsstrahlung, due to the collective effects discussed in this paper.

description: Background: Biomarkers of cardiovascular and metabolic risk track from adolescence into adulthood, therefore characterising the direction and magnitude of these changes is an important first step to identifying health trajectories that presage future disease risk. Aim: To characterise changes in metabolic biomarkers across early adolescence in a multi-ethnic cohort. Subjects and methods: Among 891 participants in Project Viva we estimated changes in insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), adipokines, lipids, and SBP between ages 6–10 years and 11–16 years. Next, we used multivariable linear regression to examine associations of sex, baseline overweight/obesity, baseline pubertal status and race/ethnicity with change in the biomarkers during follow-up. Results: Boys exhibited a larger decrement in adiponectin (−0.66 [95% CI = −1.14, −0.18)] ng/mL) and a greater increase in SBP (3.20 [2.10, 4.30] mmHg) than girls. Overweight/obese participants experienced larger increases in HOMA-IR, leptin, and triglycerides; and a steeper decrement in HDL. Pubertal youth showed larger decrements in total and LDL cholesterol than their pre-pubertal counterparts. In comparison to White participants, Black youth experienced a larger magnitude of increase in HOMA-IR, and Hispanic youth exhibited larger decrements in adiponectin and HDL. Conclusions: Change in metabolic biomarkers across early adolescence differed by sex, weight status, pubertal status and race/ethnicity. Some of the metabolic changes may reflect normal physiological changes of puberty, while others may presage future disease risk. Future studies are warranted to link metabolic changes during adolescence to long-term health.

Subjects: subject: 500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik

description: The quantum relative entropy is frequently used as a distance measure between two quantum states, and inequalities relating it to other distance measures are important mathematical tools in many areas of quantum informationtheory. We have derived many such inequalities in previous work. The present paper is a follow-up on this, and provides a sharp upper bound on the relative entropy in terms of the trace norm distance and of the smallest eigenvalues of both states concerned. The result obtained here is more general than the corresponding one from our previous work. As a corollary, we obtain a sharp upper bound on the regularised relative entropy introduced by Lendi, Farhadmotamed, and van Wonderen.

description: The use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in teaching and learning foreign languages has risen sharply among the educational community. Teachers access and implement innovations without always realizing their full implications for them and their students. However, this is not necessarily a negative thing, because if no one used innovations, little progresses would be made and there would be nothing to evaluate.

description: Werrons Studie verknüpft eine sportsoziologische mit einer globalisierungstheoretischen These. Die sportsoziologische These besagt, dass nicht primär Athleten und Sportler, nicht Funktionäre und Organisatoren, sondern die unablässigen Kommentare von Journalisten und anderen Beobachtern für die Entstehung des modernen Sports verantwortlich waren. Im Begriff »Weltsport« steckt die These, dass die Globalisierungsdynamik des modernen Sports auf der Fähigkeit beruht, einen eigenen Möglichkeitshorizont und in diesem Sinne eine eigene Welt zu entwerfen, die auf die Systemgenese selbst zurückwirkt. An der frühen Geschichte des modernen Sports, vor allem des amerikanischen Baseballs und des britischen Fußballs, zeigt die Studie, wie sich dieses weltprojektive Vermögen aus dem Geist des Beobachtens im späten 19. Jahrhundert entwickelte und zur Bildung jener modernen Strukturen beitrug, die im wesentlichen bis heute Bestand haben. Diese zweite, phänomenologische These begründet zugleich den globalisierungstheoretischen Anspruch der Studie, die sie sich Globalisierung nicht nur als raumübergreifende Vernetzung, nicht nur als zunehmendes Bewusstsein einer gemeinsamen Welt und auch nicht primär als ökonomischen Prozess, sondern als Summe von »Globalisierungen« gesellschaftlicher Teilsysteme vorstellt, die sich nicht primär auf Handeln, sondern auf Beobachten stützen. So abstrakt gefasst, ist sie auf Welt-Politik, Welt-Wirtschaft, Welt-Wissenschaft, Welt-Religion, Welt-Kunst etc. übertragbar und könnte zu vielfältigen historisch vergleichenden Studien der Globalisierungsdynamiken unterschiedlicher Teilsysteme anregen. Mit diesen Argumenten und ihrer empirischen Illustration an der Geschichte des modernen Sports will die Arbeit sowohl zur weltgesellschaftstheoretischen Neubeschreibung vorhandener Forschung als auch zur Überführung der soziologischen Weltgesellschaftstheorie in Forschung beitragen.

description: Vitamin C is the exogenous compound necessary for a variety of metabolic processes; therefore, the efficient delivery is critical for the maintenance of body homeostasis. Vitamin C pharmacokinetics and low quantities in processed foodstuff, necessitates its continuous supplementation. In the paper, we present the new liposomal formulation of vitamin C free of harmful organic solvents. The formulation was quantitatively characterized with respect to its chemically composition and nano-structuring. The vitamin C accessibility to cells from the formulation was evaluated using evidence derived from experiments performed on cell cultures. Finally, the enhanced bioavailability of vitamin C from the formulation was demonstrated in the medical experiment.

description: Climate change policy is a prime example for the growing importance of expert ad-vice to inform decision‐making. Consequently, a plethora of advisory bodies and pro-cesses have emerged around the world. However, there are marked differences in the way the interactions between science and politics are organized and practiced depending on a country’s political system and culture. The degree of political compe-tition, the role of state vis-à-vis non-state actors and the dominant modes of interest mediation provide specific conditions for the ways expertise is consulted and used in decision-making. Against this background, the paper presents the landscape of scientific advice in Austrian climate policy and asks in how far the traditionally strong culture of corporat-ism in Austrian politics manifests itself in practices of climate policy advice. Concep-tually, the paper draws on analytical dimensions derived from the concepts of “na-tional styles of policy-making” and “civic epistemology”. Methodically it bases on an interview series and a workshop with representatives from science, politics, and in-termediary organizations. Our analysis provides a differentiated picture: the neo-corporatist culture still leaves its imprint in Austrian climate policy advice. But at the same time, the emergence of a new policy field, such as climate policy, undoubtedly opens up possibilities for new actors and forms of policy advice.

description: Pulsars provide unique probes of the large-scale interstellar magnetic field in the Galactic disk. Up to now, the limited Galactic distribution of the known pulsar population has restricted these investigations to within a few kiloparsec of the Sun. The Parkes multibeam pulsar survey has discovered many more-distant pulsars which enables us for the first time to explore the magnetic field in most of the nearby half of the Galactic disk. Here we report the detection of counterclockwise magnetic fields in the Norma spiral arm using pulsar rotation measures. The fields are coherent in direction over a linear scale of $\sim 5$ kpc along the arm and have a strength of $-4.4\pm0.9$ $μ$G. The magnetic field between the Carina-Sagittarius and Crux-Scutum arms is confirmed to be coherent from $l\sim45\degr$ to $l\sim305\degr$ over a length of $\sim 10$ kpc. These results strengthen arguments for a bisymmetric spiral model for the field configuration in the Galactic disk.

A Tip for Landscape Riders: Multi-Field Inflation Can Fulfill the Swampland Distance Conjecture

description: We study how both the swampland distance conjecture and the Lyth bound affect the parameter space of multi-field models of inflation. A generic feature of multi-field inflation is that the geodesic distance $\left[Δϕ\right]_\text{G}$ separating any two points laying along the inflationary trajectory differs from the non-geodesic distance $\left[Δϕ\right]_\text{NG}$ traversed by the inflaton between those points. These distances must respect a relation of the form $\left[Δϕ\right]_\text{G} = f\left(\left[Δϕ\right]_\text{NG}\right) \leq \left[Δϕ\right]_\text{NG}$, where $f$ is a function determined by the specific multi-field model under scrutiny. We show that this relation leads to important constraints on the parameter space characterizing the multi-field dynamics. Indeed, the swampland distance conjecture implies an upper bound on $\left[Δϕ\right]_\text{G}$ set by the details of the ultraviolet completion of inflation, whereas the Lyth bound implies a lower bound on $\left[Δϕ\right]_\text{NG}$ determined by the value of the tensor-to-scalar ratio. If future observations confirm the existence of primordial tensor perturbations, these two bounds combined lead to tight constraints on the possible values of the entropy mass of the isocurvature fields orthogonal to the inflationary trajectory and the rate of turn of the inflationary trajectory in multi-field space. We analyze the emerging constraints in detail for the particular case of two-field inflation in hyperbolic field spaces.

Interstellar extinction in the open clusters towards galactic longitude around 130 degrees

description: In this paper we present a detailed study of the intra-cluster reddening material in the young open clusters located around $l \sim 130^o$ using colour-excess diagrams and two-colour diagrams. The study supports the universality of the extinction curves for $λ\geq λ_J$, whereas for shorter wavelengths the curve depends upon the value of the $R_{cluster}$ (total-to-selective absorption in the cluster region). The value of $R_{cluster}$ in the case of NGC 654, NGC 869 and NGC 884 is found to be normal, whereas the value of $R_{cluster}$ in the cluster regions NGC 1502 and IC 1805 indicates an anomalous reddening law in these regions. It is also found that the extinction process in the $U$ band in the case of NGC 663 seems to be less efficient, whereas in the case of NGC 869 the process is more efficient.
