description: We can obtain a second conventional formula (${\rm CF_{II}}$) with two components by extending the conventional formula ${\rm CF_{I}}$ with one component for Bose-Einstein Correlation (BEC). We used ${\rm CF_{II}}$ to analyze the BEC at $Z^0$-pole as part of the OPAL collaboration. $R_1({\rm G})=0.91\pm 0.03$ fm ($λ_1=0.61\pm 0.03$) and $R_2({\rm G})=2.57\pm 0.44$ fm ($λ_1=0.35\pm 0.09$) are the estimated interaction region, where $λ_1$ and $λ_2$ are the degrees of coherence, and G is the Gaussian distribution, respectively. Long range correlation (LRC) is also studied.

description: Fractional learning algorithms are trending in signal processing and adaptive filtering recently. However, it is unclear whether the proclaimed superiority over conventional algorithms is well-grounded or is a myth as their performance has never been extensively analyzed. In this article, a rigorous analysis of fractional variants of the least mean squares and steepest descent algorithms is performed. Some critical schematic kinks in fractional learning algorithms are identified. Their origins and consequences on the performance of the learning algorithms are discussed and swift ready-witted remedies are proposed. Apposite numerical experiments are conducted to discuss the convergence and efficiency of the fractional learning algorithms in stochastic environments.

description: We study theoretically the effects of interfacial Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling in superconductor/ ferromagnet/superconductor (S/F/S) Josephson junctions-with allowing for tunneling barriers between the ferromagnetic and superconducting layers-by solving the Bogoljubov-de Gennes equation for realistic heterostructures and applying the Furusaki-Tsukada technique to calculate the electric current at a finite temperature. The presence of spin-orbit couplings leads to out-of-plane and in-plane magnetoanisotropies of the Josephson current, which are giant in comparison to current magnetoanisotropies in similar normal-state ferromagnet/normal metal (F/N) junctions. Especially huge anisotropies appear in the vicinity of 0-pi transitions, caused by the exchange-split bands in the ferromagnetic metal layer. We also show that the direction of the Josephson critical current can be controlled (inducing 0-pi transitions) by the strength of the spin-orbit coupling and, more crucial, by the orientation of the magnetization. Such a control can bring new functionalities into Josephson junction devices.

description: Cosmological constraints from X-ray and microwave observations of galaxy clusters are subjected to systematic uncertainties. Non-thermal pressure support due to internal gas motions in galaxy clusters is one of the major sources of astrophysical uncertainties. Using a mass-limited sample of galaxy clusters from a high-resolution hydrodynamical cosmological simulation, we characterize the non-thermal pressure fraction profile and study its dependence on redshift, mass, and mass accretion rate. We find that the non-thermal pressure fraction profile is universal across redshift when galaxy cluster radii are defined with respect to the mean matter density of the universe instead of the commonly used critical density. We also find that the non-thermal pressure is predominantly radial, and the gas velocity anisotropy profile exhibits strong universality when galaxy cluster radii are defined with respect to the mean matter density of the universe. However, we find that the non-thermal pressure fraction is strongly dependent on the mass accretion rate of the galaxy cluster. We provide fitting formulae for the universal non-thermal pressure fraction and velocity anisotropy profiles of gas in galaxy clusters, which should be useful in modeling astrophysical uncertainties pertinent to using galaxy clusters as cosmological probes.

Statistical-mechanical analysis of adaptive filter with clipping saturation-type nonlinearity

Subjects: subject: Signal Processing (eess.SP)
subject: FOS: Electrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineering

description: In most practical adaptive signal processing systems, e.g., active noise control, active vibration control, and acoustic echo cancellation, substantial nonlinearities that cannot be neglected exist. In this paper, we analyze the behaviors of an adaptive system in which the output of the adaptive filter has the clipping saturation-type nonlinearity by a statistical-mechanical method. We discuss the dynamical and steady-state behaviors of the adaptive system by asymptotic analysis, steady-state analysis, and numerical calculation. As a result, it has become clear that the saturation value has the critical point at which the system's mean-square stability and instability switch. The obtained theory well explains the strange behaviors around the critical point observed in the computer simulation. Finally, the exact value of the critical point is also derived.

description: Given a set $X$, a collection $\mathcal{F}\subseteq\mathcal{P}(X)$ is said to be $k$-Sperner if it does not contain a chain of length $k+1$ under set inclusion and it is saturated if it is maximal with respect to this property. Gerbner et al. conjectured that, if $|X|$ is sufficiently large with respect to $k$, then the minimum size of a saturated $k$-Sperner system $\mathcal{F}\subseteq\mathcal{P}(X)$ is $2^{k-1}$. We disprove this conjecture by showing that there exists $\varepsilon>0$ such that for every $k$ and $|X| \geq n_0(k)$ there exists a saturated $k$-Sperner system $\mathcal{F}\subseteq\mathcal{P}(X)$ with cardinality at most $2^{(1-\varepsilon)k}$. A collection $\mathcal{F}\subseteq \mathcal{P}(X)$ is said to be an oversaturated $k$-Sperner system if, for every $S\in\mathcal{P}(X)\setminus\mathcal{F}$, $\mathcal{F}\cup\{S\}$ contains more chains of length $k+1$ than $\mathcal{F}$. Gerbner et al. proved that, if $|X|\geq k$, then the smallest such collection contains between $2^{k/2-1}$ and $O\left(\frac{\log{k}}{k}2^k\right)$ elements. We show that if $|X|\geq k^2+k$, then the lower bound is best possible, up to a polynomial factor.

description: A NaI(Tl) detector array called DALI2 (Detector Array for Low Intensity radiation 2) has been constructed for in-beam $γ$-ray spectroscopy experiments with fast radioactive isotope (RI) beams. It consists typically of 186 NaI(Tl) scintillators covering polar angles from $\sim$15$^{\circ}$ to $\sim$160$^{\circ}$ with an average angular resolution of 6$^{\circ}$ in full width at half maximum. Its high granularity (good angular resolution) enables Doppler-shift corrections that result in, for example, 10% energy resolution and 20% full-energy photopeak efficiency for 1-MeV $γ$ rays emitted from fast-moving nuclei (velocities of $v/c \simeq 0.6$). DALI2 has been employed successfully in numerous experiments using fast RI beams with velocities of $v/c = 0.3 - 0.6$ provided by the RIKEN RI Beam Factory.

description: The mismatch between elegant theoretical models and the detailed experimental reality is particularly pronounced in quantum nonlinear interferometry (QNI). In stark contrast to theory, experiments contain pump beams that start in impure states and that are depleted, quantum noise that affects -- and drives -- any otherwise gradual build up of the signal and idler fields, and nonlinear materials that are far from ideal and have a complicated time-dependent dispersive response. Notably, we would normally expect group velocity mismatches to destroy any possibility of measurable or visible entanglement, even though it remains intact -- the mismatches change the relative timings of induced signal-idler entanglements, thus generating "which path" information. Using a "positive-P" approach ideally suited to such problems, we show how the time-domain entanglement crucial for QNI can be -- and is -- recoverable despite the obscuring effects of real-world complications.

description: The evolution of evaporating charged black holes is complicated to model in general, but is nevertheless important since the hints to the Information Loss Paradox and its recent firewall incarnation may lie in understanding more generic geometries than that of Schwarzschild spacetime. Fortunately, for sufficiently large asymptotically flat Reissner-Nordstrom black holes, the evaporation process can be modeled via a system of coupled linear ordinary differential equations, with charge loss rate governed by Schwinger pair-production process. The same model can be generalized to study the evaporation of AdS Reissner-Nordstrom black holes with flat horizon. It was recently found that such black holes always evolve towards extremality since charge loss is inefficient. This property is completely opposite to the asymptotically flat case in which the black hole eventually loses its charges and tends towards Schwarzschild limit. We clarify the underlying reason for this different behavior.

Year: 1999

description: These State of the Art (SOTA) performance levels apply to newly constructed or reconstructed stationary gas turbines with heat input capacity greater than 10 million BTUs per hour (HHV basis).  For air pollution control permit applications for modifications to an existing stationary gas turbine, determination of emission levels and air pollution control technologies that represent advances in the art of air pollution control will be performed on a case-by-case basis.  As promulgated in the New Jersey Air Pollution Control Act N.J.S.A. 26:2C-9.2C, and as set forth in the implementing regulations of the Air Pollution Control Act (N.J.A.C. 7:27-8 and N.J.A.C. 7:27-22.35), newly constructed, reconstructed, or modified equipment and control apparatus is required to incorporate advances in the art of air pollution control developed for the kind and amount of air contaminant emitted by the applicant's equipment or control apparatus.  The Air Pollution Control Act of New Jersey directed the Department to publish technical manuals that would include performance levels with respect to air pollution control, to be used by some permit applicants for demonstrating advances in the art of air pollution control.  'Advances in the art of air pollution control' is commonly referred to as 'State-of-the-Art' or SOTA.  SOTA generally includes performance limits that are based on air pollution control technology, pollution prevention methods, and process modifications or substitutions that will provide the greatest emission reductions that are technologically and economically feasible.  There are 17 SOTA manuals included in this series.  They cover the following topics:  volatile organic storage tanks; transfer operations; petroleum refineries; asphalt plants; chemical and pharmaceutical processing and manufacturing industries; degreasers and other solvent based metal surface cleaners; surface coating operations; commercial sterilizers and fumigators using ethylene oxide; municipal wastewater/sludge handling and treatment systems; non-hazardous onsite remediation processes; bakery ovens; broilers; internal combustion engines; stationary gas turbines; glass industry; paint, ink, and adhesive manufacturing industries; graphic arts industry.

description: We study the role of finite-size effects at the hadron-quark phase transition in a new hybrid equation of state constructed from an ab-initio Brückner-Hartree-Fock equation of state with the realistic Bonn-B potential for the hadronic phase and a covariant non-local Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model for the quark phase. We construct static hybrid star sequences and find that our model can support stable hybrid stars with an onset of quark matter below $2 M_\odot$ and a maximum mass above $2.17 M_\odot$ in agreement with recent observations. If the finite-size effects are taken into account the core is composed of pure quark matter. Provided that the quark vector channel interaction is small, and the finite size effects are taken into account, quark matter appears at densities 2-3 times the nuclear saturation density. In that case the proton fraction in the hadronic phase remains below the value required by the onset of the direct URCA process, so that the early onset of quark matter shall affect on the rapid cooling of the star.

description: The $f(T,T_G)$ class of gravitational modification, based on the quadratic torsion scalar $T$, as well as on the new quartic torsion scalar $T_G$ which is the teleparallel equivalent of the Gauss-Bonnet term, is a novel theory, different from both $f(T)$ and $f(R,G)$ ones. We perform a detailed dynamical analysis of a spatially flat universe governed by the simplest non-trivial model of $f(T,T_G)$ gravity which does not introduce a new mass scale. We find that the universe can result in dark-energy dominated, quintessence-like, cosmological-constant-like or phantom-like solutions, according to the parameter choices. Additionally, it may result to a dark energy - dark matter scaling solution, and thus it can alleviate the coincidence problem. Finally, the analysis "at infinity" reveals that the universe may exhibit future, past, or intermediate singularities depending on the parameters.

Contrastive Proposal Extension with LSTM Network for Weakly Supervised Object Detection

description: Weakly supervised object detection (WSOD) has attracted more and more attention since it only uses image-level labels and can save huge annotation costs. Most of the WSOD methods use Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) as their basic framework, which regard it as an instance classification problem. However, these methods based on MIL tends to converge only on the most discriminate regions of different instances, rather than their corresponding complete regions, that is, insufficient integrity. Inspired by the habit of observing things by the human, we propose a new method by comparing the initial proposals and the extension ones to optimize those initial proposals. Specifically, we propose one new strategy for WSOD by involving contrastive proposal extension (CPE), which consists of multiple directional contrastive proposal extensions (D-CPE), and each D-CPE contains encoders based on LSTM network and corresponding decoders. Firstly, the boundary of initial proposals in MIL is extended to different positions according to well-designed sequential order. Then, CPE compares the extended proposal and the initial proposal by extracting the feature semantics of them using the encoders, and calculates the integrity of the initial proposal to optimize the score of the initial proposal. These contrastive contextual semantics will guide the basic WSOD to suppress bad proposals and improve the scores of good ones. In addition, a simple two-stream network is designed as the decoder to constrain the temporal coding of LSTM and improve the performance of WSOD further. Experiments on PASCAL VOC 2007, VOC 2012 and MS-COCO datasets show that our method has achieved the state-of-the-art results.

description: Metabarcoding techniques have revolutionized ecological research in recent years, facilitating the differentiation of cryptic species and revealing previously hidden diversity. In the current scenario of climate change and ocean acidification, biodiversity loss is one of the main threats to marine ecosystems. Here, we explored the effects of ocean acidification on marine benthic communities using DNA metabarcoding to assess the diversity of algae and metazoans. Specifically, we examined the natural pH gradient generated by the Fuencaliente CO2 vent system, located near La Palma Island (Canary Islands). High-resolution COI metabarcoding analyses revealed high levels of taxonomic diversity in an acidified natural area for the first time. This high number of species arises from the detection of small and cryptic species that were previously undetectable by other techniques. Such species are apparently tolerant to the acidification levels expected in future oceans. Hence and following our results, future subtropical communities are expected to keep high biodiversity values under an acidification scenario, although they will tend toward overall miniaturization due to the dominance of small algal and invertebrate species, leading to changes in ecosystem functions.

description: Given an algebraic differential equation of order greater than one, it is shown that if there is any nontrivial algebraic relation amongst any number of distinct nonalgebraic solutions, along with their derivatives, then there is already such a relation between three solutions. In the autonomous situation when the equation is over constant parameters the assumption that the order be greater than one can be dropped, and a nontrivial algebraic relation exists already between two solutions. These theorems are deduced as an application of the following model-theoretic result: Suppose $p$ is a stationary nonalgebraic type in the theory of differentially closed fields of characteristic zero; if any three distinct realisations of $p$ are independent then $p$ is minimal. If the type is over the constants then minimality (and complete disintegratedness) already follow from knowing that any two realisations are independent. An algebro-geometric formulation in terms of $D$-varieties is given. The same methods yield also an analogous statement about families of compact Kähler manifolds.

description: We study quenches in integrable spin-1/2 chains in which we evolve the ground state of the antiferromagnetic Ising model with the anisotropic Heisenberg Hamiltonian. For this nontrivially interacting situation, an application of the first-principles-based quench action method allows us to give an exact description of the postquench steady state in the thermodynamic limit. We show that a generalized Gibbs ensemble, implemented using all known local conserved charges, fails to reproduce the exact quench action steady state and to correctly predict postquench equilibrium expectation values of physical observables. This is supported by numerical linked-cluster calculations within the diagonal ensemble in the thermodynamic limit.

description: An innovative process for the design of static passive smart skins (SPSSs) is proposed to take into account, within the synthesis, the electromagnetic (EM) interactions due to their finite (macro-level) size and aperiodic (micro-scale) layouts. Such an approach leverages on the combination of an inverse source (IS) formulation, to define the SPSS surface currents, and of an instance of the System-by-Design paradigm, to synthesize the unit cell (UC) descriptors suitable for supporting these currents. As for this latter step, an enhanced Artificial Intelligence (IA)-based digital twin (DT) is built to efficiently and reliably predict the relationships among the UCs and the non-uniform coupling effects arising when the UCs are irregularly assembled to build the corresponding SPSS. Towards this end and unlike state-of-the-art approaches, an aperiodic finite small-scale model of the SPSS is derived to generate the training database for the DT implementation. A set of representative numerical experiments, dealing with different radiation objectives and smart skin apertures, is reported to assess the reliability of the conceived design process and to illustrate the radiation features of the resulting layouts, validated with accurate full-wave simulations, as well.
title: Books of Hours collected by Elizabeth Seymour Percy, 1st Duchess of Northumberland (1716-1776): An examination of three unpublished late fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century illuminated Books of Hours at Alnwick Castle

description: This thesis introduces Elizabeth Seymour Percy, 1st Duchess of Northumberland (1716-1776) who is known to have collected the Books of Hours now held at Alnwick Castle. Three of her unpublished Books of Hours are examined more closely, Duke of Northumberland (DNP) MSS 483, 484 and 485, here named The Van Zonnevelt Hours, The Golden Bathsheba Hours and The Goesin Hours respectively. My research has endeavoured to establish, as far as possible, where, when and by whom each manuscript was produced and to whom they belonged. The Van Zonnevelt Hours was produced in the Northern Netherlands in two distinct artistic phases, while the other two were produced in the Southern Netherlands although DNP MS 484, The Golden Bathsheba Hours, contains a monotone miniature of aVnaked [sic] Bathsheba in the French tradition. All were produced in the late fifteenth or early sixteenth centuries. A fourth Book of Hours from the collection at Alnwick, DNP MS 482, The Hours of Charlotte de Bourbon Montpensier, and DNP MS 483, The Van Zonnevelt Hours, contain added inscriptions, which between them contribute new information on the Dutch Revolt from either side of the religious divide. All four manuscripts have either a binding or cover of red velvet and all four manuscripts have similar library labels that are not those of Alnwick, raising the question of whether some or all of the books were together before they entered the Alnwick collection.

description: The design of modular, passive, and static artificial metasurfaces to be used as electromagnetic skins (EMSs) of buildings for improving the coverage in urban millimeter-wave communication scenarios is addressed. Towards this end, an ad-hoc design strategy is presented to determine optimal trade-off implementative solutions that assure a suitable coverage of the areas of interest, where the signal from the base station is too weak, with the minimum complexity. More specifically, the admissible surface in the building facade is first partitioned into tiles, which are the minimum-size elements of the artificial coating (i.e., the building block of an EMS). Then, the search for the optimal EMS layout (i.e., the minimum number and the positions of the tiles to be installed) is carried out with a binary multi-objective optimization method. Representative numerical results are reported and discussed to point out the features and the potentialities of the EMS solution in the smart electromagnetic environment (SEME) as well as the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

description: The generation of high harmonics (HHG) in atomic systems by the highly non-linear response to an intense laser field is a prominent pathway to the synthesis of ever shorter laser pulses at increasingly higher photon energies. Extensions of this process to molecules add to the complexity but also offers novel opportunities as multi-center effects and the coupling to nuclear degrees of freedom can influence HHG. In this work we theoretically explore the impact of coherent vibronic excitations of diatomic molecules on the HHG spectrum within the framework of time-dependent density functional theory. We observe the appearance of novel interference structures in the HHG spectra controlled by resonances between the driving field and the vibronic wavepacket.

Primrose Brook Sub-Watershed Environmental Assessment: Township of Harding, Township of Morris, Township of Mendham: Morris County, New Jersey
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Princeton Hydro, LLC
Year: 2004

description: Princeton Hydro, LLC conducted a Sub-Watershed Environmental Assessment of Primrose Brook. The assessment was conducted from late January through early March of 2004. The goal of the Primrose Brook Sub-Watershed Environmental Assessment was to identify and catalog all impacted areas within the Primrose Brook stream corridor and to identify and recommend Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will maintain or improve the water quality and the physical condition of the stream. A secondary, ancillary goal is to reduce pollutant loading of the Great Swamp, the receiving water of the Primrose Brook. Specifically, the identification, assessment, and selection of BMPs are intended to mitigate the negative effects of nonpoint sources (NPS) of pollution on Primrose Brook. Strategies for BMP implementation were suggested for individual areas of concern and on a watershed-wide basis.

description: We consider the time derivatives of the period $P$ of pulsars at the Galactic Center due to variations in their orbital Doppler shifts. We show that in conjunction with a measurement of a pulsar's proper motion and its projected separation from the supermassive black hole, Sgr A*,measuring two of the three derivatives $\dot{P}$, $\ddot{P}$, or $\dddot{P}$ sets a constraint that allows for the recovery of the complete six phase space coordinates of the pulsar's orbit, as well as the enclosed mass within the orbit. Thus, one can use multiple pulsars at different distances from Sgr A* to determine the radial mass distribution of stars and stellar remnants at the Galactic center. Furthermore, we consider the effect of passing stars on the pulsar's period derivatives and show how it can be exploited to measure the characteristic stellar mass in the Galactic Center.

description: We present a generic inference method for inflation models from observational data by the usage of higher-order statistics of the curvature perturbation on uniform density hypersurfaces. This method is based on the calculation of the posterior for the primordial non-Gaussianity parameters $f_\text{NL}$ and $g_\text{NL}$, which in general depend on specific parameters of inflation and reheating models, and enables to discriminate among the still viable inflation models. To keep analyticity as far as possible to dispense with numerically expensive sampling techniques a saddle-point approximation is introduced, whose precision is validated for a numerical toy example. The mathematical formulation is done in a generic way so that the approach remains applicable to cosmic microwave background data as well as to large scale structure data. Additionally, we review a few currently interesting inflation models and present numerical toy examples thereof in two and three dimensions to demonstrate the efficiency of the higher-order statistics method. A second quantity of interest is the primordial power spectrum. Here, we present two Bayesian methods to infer it from observational data, the so called critical filter and an extension thereof with smoothness prior, both allowing for a non-parametric spectrum reconstruction. These methods are able to reconstruct the spectra of the observed perturbations and the primordial ones of curvature perturbation even in case of non-Gaussianity and partial sky coverage. We argue that observables like $T-$ and $B-$modes permit to measure both spectra. This also allows to infer the level of non-Gaussianity generated since inflation.

Migration narrative success. A conceptual tool for trans-disciplinary integration

Subjects: migration

transdisciplinarity

description: In this concept note, produced in the framework of BRIDGES’ “Theoretical and Methodological Laboratory” (Work Package 2), we develop the concept of “migration narrative success” (MNS) in view to create an analytical and practical tool that can facilitate and enhance exchange among different disciplinary perspectives within the project. In the first part, we provide a definition of MNS, distinguishing between two dimensions (pervasiveness and transformativity) and identifying the relevant parameters for their operationalisation. In the second part, we single out potential explanatory factors (of both the pervasiveness and transformativity of a given narrative) to be tested and validated throughout the project.
 Based on existing literature, we argue that narratives’ influential capacity depends on the content (what is said) and the framing of narratives (how it is said) as well as the context in which they develop and circulate (by whom, to whom and what for, where and when). In the final section, by changing the focus from narratives referring to specific migration-related events to broader narratives about (im)migration, we propose the “concept of migration narrative hegemony” (MNH) as a core category for assessing the long-term systemic “success” of narratives about migration as a multi-dimensional and durable (or “structural”) social phenomenon.

description: The optimal planning of electromagnetic skins (EMSs) installed on the building facades to enhance the received signal strength, thus the wireless coverage and/or the quality-of-service (QoS) in large-scale urban areas, is addressed. More specifically, a novel instance of the System-by-Design (SbD) paradigm is proposed towards the implementation of a smart electromagnetic environment (SEME) where low-cost passive static reflective skins are deployed to enhance the level of the power received within selected regions-of-interest (RoIs). Thanks to the ad-hoc customization of the SbD functional blocks, which includes the exploitation of a digital twin (DT) for the accurate yet fast assessment of the wireless coverage condition, effective solutions are yielded. Numerical results, dealing with real-world test-beds, are shown to assess the capabilities, the potentialities, and the current limitations of the proposed EMSs planning strategy.

description: This document provides a general overview of the map accuracy and digital geospatial data standards of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), Bureau of Geographic Information Systems (BGIS). The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection maintains a Geographic Information System (GIS) for the storage and analysis of cartographic (mapped) and related environmental scientific and regulatory information for use by the Department.  To effectively share data and leverage resources it is necessary that agencies agree on a common set of minimum technical digital mapping standards.  The NJDEP, Bureau of Geographic Information Systems prepared this guidance document to serve as the Geographic Information System Mapping and Digital Data Standards document for New Jersey state agencies. The standards are used by the NJDEP and recommended for other users of GIS in the state and State of New Jersey. The document includes requirements for data documentation and use of GPS and remote sensing data. Data transfer methods and metadata standards are also illustrated. Programs within DEP may define additional technical mapping requirements to accommodate specific program needs.
