Möbius molecules and fragile Mott insulators

description: Motivated by the concept of Möbius aromatics in organic chemistry, we extend the recently introduced concept of fragile Mott insulators (FMI) to ring-shaped molecules with repulsive Hubbard interactions threaded by a half-quantum of magnetic flux ($hc/2e$). In this context, a FMI is the insulating ground state of a finite-size molecule that cannot be adiabatically connected to a single Slater determinant, i.e., to a band insulator, provided that time-reversal and lattice translation symmetries are preserved. Based on exact numerical diagonalization for finite Hubbard interaction strength $U$ and existing Bethe-ansatz studies of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in the large-$U$ limit, we establish a duality between Hubbard molecules with $4n$ and $4n+2$ sites, with $n$ integer. A molecule with $4n$ sites is an FMI in the absence of flux but becomes a band insulator in the presence of a half-quantum of flux, while a molecule with $4n+2$ sites is a band insulator in the absence of flux but becomes an FMI in the presence of a half-quantum of flux. Including next-nearest-neighbor-hoppings gives rise to new FMI states that belong to multidimensional irreducible representations of the molecular point group, giving rise to a rich phase diagram.

description: We studied the influence of a magnetic field (MF) on epitaxial growth and magnetic properties of Fe(001) films deposited on MgO(001). Thanks to modular sample holders and a specialized manipulator in our multi-chamber ultrahigh vacuum system, the films could be deposited and annealed in an in-plane MF of 100 mT. In situ scanning tunnelling microscopy showed that MF had a strong influence on the film morphology, and, in particular, on the structure of surface steps. The magnetic properties were studied ex situ using magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) magnetometry and microscopy. We showed that the moderate in-plane magnetic field applied during growth has the visible impact on the magnetic properties. The observed angular dependence of the MOKE loops and domain structures were discussed based on a magnetization reversal model. In particular we found that magnetization reversal occurs via 90° domains and the reversal differs for the no-field and in-field grown samples, in correlation with the film morphology.

description: The protein NLRP3 and its complexes are associated with an array of inflammatory pathologies, among which neurodegenerative, autoimmune, and metabolic diseases. Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome represents a promising strategy for easing the symptoms of pathologic neuroinflammation. When the inflammasome is activated, NLRP3 undergoes a conformational change triggering the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1βand IL-18, as well as cell death by pyroptosis. NLRP3 nucleotide-binding and oligomerization (NACHT) domain plays a crucial role in this function by binding and hydrolysing ATP and is primarily responsible, together with conformational transitions involving the PYD domain, for the complex-assembly process. Allosteric ligands proved able to induce NLRP3 inhibition. Herein, we examine the origins of allosteric inhibition of NLRP3. Through the use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and advanced analysis methods, we provide molecular-level insights into how allosteric binding affects protein structure and dynamics, remodelling of the conformational ensembles populated by the protein, with key reverberations on how NLRP3 is preorganized for assembly and ultimately function. The data are used to develop a Machine Learning model to define the protein as Active or Inactive, only based on the analysis of its internal dynamics. We propose this model as a novel tool to select allosteric ligands.
The Evolution of an Inhomogeneous Universe

description: A refined version of a recently introduced method for analysing the dynamics of an inhomogeneous irrotational dust universe is presented. A fully non-perturbative numerical computation of the time dependence of volume in this framework leads to the following results. If the initial state of the universe is Einstein-de Sitter with small Gaussian perturbations, then there is no acceleration even though the inhomogeneities strongly affect the evolution. A universe with a positive background curvature can exhibit acceleration, but not in conjunction with reasonable values for the Hubble rate. Thus the correct values for both quantities can be achieved only by introducing a positive cosmological constant. Possible loopholes to this conclusion are discussed; in particular, acceleration as an illusion created by peculiarities of light propagation in an inhomogeneous universe is still possible. Independently of the cosmological constant question, the present formalism should provide an important tool for precision cosmology.

description: This paper aims to provide a sustainable alternative to traditional concrete with improved fire resistance. A total of 76 % cement replacement was achieved with ternary blend of flyash (65 %) and silica fume (11 %). Also, Basalt and polypropylene fibres were incorporated to simultaneously improve the ambient and high temperature performance of the cementitious composite. Cylindrical specimens were exposed to elevated temperature between 200 and 800 °C at an interval of 200 °C. The chosen matrix with fibre combination demonstrated excellent resistance against spalling and provided high strength retention up to 600 °C. Remarkable stability against surface cracking was also observed even at the highest exposure temperature. Scanning electron micrographs are further used to corroborate the trend of residual compressive performance.
Explaining language change over the lifespan: a panel and trend analysis of Australian English
Creators: name: Sheard, Elena
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2023

description: The field of lifespan change - which studies the speech of the same individuals over time - has identified three main trajectories that speakers follow: participating in wider community change ('lifespan change'), not participating (stability), and moving in the opposite direction to the community ('retrograde change') (cf., Sankoff 2019). When individuals do change, there is also great variability, as people do not change the same amount over the same period. There is, however, limited systematic analysis of why this is the case. In my thesis I investigate whether it is possible to systematically explain a) the trajectories individual speakers have followed, and b) the extent to which they have changed. I apply this question to a set of variables in Australian English, including diphthongs, monophthongs, word-final (er), and (ing). The investigation is based on a panel study of five Greek- and five Italian- background Australians, who were recorded in the 1970s as teenagers for the Sydney Social Dialect Survey (Horvath 1985) and again in 2019 as adults for the Sydney Speaks project (Travis, Grama, and Gonzalez In Progress). Through contextualising the speech of these 10 individuals within the broader patterning of their generation (an additional 117 Australians from the Sydney Speaks corpus) using innovative quantitative methodologies, I can answer in the affirmative to the two research questions: the individuals who change most are those who were originally further behind in the change relative to their peers. This pattern is displayed across the set of studied variables and holds for individual speakers; individuals consistently move more over their lifetime for variables in which they are lagging in the change. However, individuals are not consistently progressed across the variables; an individual being ahead in one change cannot be reliably used as proxy for being progressed in another. This thesis supports the importance of the speech community in accounting for trajectories over the lifespan. It also highlights the potentially underestimated role of speakers' own generation in providing targets for change over the lifespan, and problematises the distinction between retrograde and lifespan change in situations where different speakers converge on a shared target from different starting points in their youth.

description: In semi-supervised learning, unlabeled samples can be utilized through augmentation and consistency regularization. However, we observed certain samples, even undergoing strong augmentation, are still correctly classified with high confidence, resulting in a loss close to zero. It indicates that these samples have been already learned well and do not provide any additional optimization benefits to the model. We refer to these samples as ``naive samples". Unfortunately, existing SSL models overlook the characteristics of naive samples, and they just apply the same learning strategy to all samples. To further optimize the SSL model, we emphasize the importance of giving attention to naive samples and augmenting them in a more diverse manner. Sample adaptive augmentation (SAA) is proposed for this stated purpose and consists of two modules: 1) sample selection module; 2) sample augmentation module. Specifically, the sample selection module picks out {naive samples} based on historical training information at each epoch, then the naive samples will be augmented in a more diverse manner in the sample augmentation module. Thanks to the extreme ease of implementation of the above modules, SAA is advantageous for being simple and lightweight. We add SAA on top of FixMatch and FlexMatch respectively, and experiments demonstrate SAA can significantly improve the models. For example, SAA helped improve the accuracy of FixMatch from 92.50% to 94.76% and that of FlexMatch from 95.01% to 95.31% on CIFAR-10 with 40 labels.

Local Group Proper Motion Dynamics

description: Our knowledge of the dynamics and masses of galaxies in the Local Group has long been limited by the fact that only line-of-sight velocities were observationally accessible. This introduces significant degeneracies in dynamical models, which can only be resolved by measuring also the velocity components perpendicular to the line of sight. However, beyond the solar neighborhood, the corresponding proper motions have generally been too small to measure. This has changed dramatically over the past decade, especially due to the angular resolution and stability available on the Hubble Space Telescope. Proper motions can now be reliably measured throughout the Local Group, as illustrated by, e.g., the work of the HSTPROMO collaboration. In this review, I summarize the importance of proper motions for Local Group science, and I describe the current and future observational approaches and facilities available to measure proper motions. I highlight recent results on various Milky Way populations (globular clusters, the bulge, the metal-poor halo, hypervelocity stars, and tidal streams), dwarf satellite galaxies, the Magellanic Clouds and the Andromeda System.

description: We present HI 21cm observations of 1194 galaxies out to a redshift of 10,000 km/s selected as inclined spirals (i>60deg) from the 2MASS Redshift Survey. These observations were carried out at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT). This observing program is part of the 2MASS Tully-Fisher (2MTF) survey. This project will combine HI widths from these GBT observations with those from further dedicated observing at the Parkes Telescope, from the ALFALFA survey at Arecibo, and S/N>10 and spectral resolution, v_res < 10km/s published widths from a variety of telescopes. We will use these HI widths along with 2MASS photometry to estimate Tully-Fisher distances to nearby spirals and investigate the peculiar velocity field of the local Universe. In this paper we report on detections of neutral hydrogen in emission in 727 galaxies, and measure good signal-to-noise and symmetric HI global profiles suitable for use in the Tully-Fisher relation in 484.

Contexts of Corruption
Creators: name: Jones, Calvert
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: Research highlights the corrosive impact of corruption on political culture variables, including social trust, political disengagement, and rent-seeking. Yet much of the work is observational, based on global survey evidence, and does not take into account the strategic context of corruption. While recent experiments do emphasize context, they focus mainly on when and why citizens punish corrupt leaders at the ballot box, rather than broader implications for political culture. By leveraging experimental methods to investigate implications for political culture variables, this project helps fill that gap. The study described here is a follow-up and extension to a first study conducted by the author(s) in Jordan. In that study, subjects were assigned to one of three treatment groups or a baseline control group that received no prime. All three treatments used mock newspaper articles to describe the same basic situation of corruption at a local hospital—administrators demanding bribes for treatment. What varied was the response. In the first treatment, the situation is met with impunity; the government does nothing to address the corruption (Official-Impunity). In the second, effective anti-corruption efforts are undertaken by the government, putting an end to bribery at the hospital (Official-Crackdown). In the third, the corruption is met with a societal counter-response: citizens use personal connections (wasta in the Arab context) to circumnavigate the bribery and gain treatment (Official-Societal). The current study is a follow-up that will use the same basic design in the US context, aiming particularly to investigate how effects may vary across countries with differing degrees of institutionalization. For comparability, the same treatments will be presented (Official-Impunity, Official-Crackdown, and Official-Societal), but in addition to the hospital treatment scenario, a unviersity admissions scenario will also be used. Moreover, to extend the first study, several additions are planned, including follow-up DVs and a question to help assess causal mechanisms (see below).

description: Bangladesh is one of the signatories of United Nations Conventions on Rights of People with Disabilities (UN CRPD) that ascertains accessibility of disabled people to all sorts of physical facilities including but not limited to transports and public institutions. In accordance with the National Building Code (NBC), Dhaka City Construction Rule 2008, Persons with Disabilities Rights and Protection Act 2013 and Road Transport Act 2018 Government of Bangladesh and different authorities are obligated to ensure an accessible environment for Women with Disabilities (WWDs). Transport facilities and infrastructure are invariably inaccessible for Women with Disabilities, prohibiting their movement around their local area as well as around the country. Therefore, assessing the accessibility of women with disabilities to public transport and institutions in the built environment is the focus of this study. No study was conducted systematically on this specific area of Women with Disabilities. So, this study aimed to assess the Accessibility Rights of Women with Disabilities in public transports and public institutions in order to include them in mainstreaming development of Bangladesh. In this study, data were collected through one to one interview to Woman with Disability Development Foundation’s (WDDF) staff and Disable Peoples Organizations’ (DPO) activists, and FGDs from randomly selected 50 Women with Disabilities from WDDF database. Relevant legislation, rules, regulations, policies, circulars, and related literature were reviewed. The respondents of the FGD noted that as Women with Disabilities faced multifaceted challenges to avail basic civil rights and essential services such as education, healthcare, treatment, employment, communications, banking services and so on from Government and Non-Government Organizations more than Male with Disabilities due to existing inaccessibility in public transports and institutions. Key Informants (KI) focused on strong monitoring and mechanism system, implementing and actualizing existing legislation and policies including adopting time required and effective initiatives. Existing legislation, policies and orders for accessible public institutions and transports should be implemented properly and monitoring and mechanism system should be strong enough to enforce these legislation, policies and orders.

description: We recently proposed a new approach for the real-time monitoring of particle therapy treatments with the goal of achieving high sensitivities on the particle range measurement already at limited counting statistics. This method extends the Prompt Gamma (PG) timing technique to obtain the PG vertex distribution from the exclusive measurement of particle Time-Of-Flight (TOF). It was previously shown, through Monte Carlo simulation, that an original data reconstruction algorithm (Prompt Gamma Time Imaging) allows to combine the response of multiple detectors placed around the target. In this work we focus on the experimental feasibility of PGTI in Single Proton Regime (SPR) through the development of a multi-channel, Cherenkov-based PG detector with a targeted time resolution of 235 ps (FWHM): the TOF Imaging ARrAy (TIARA). The PG module that we developed is composed of a small PbF$_{2}$ crystal coupled to a silicon photoMultiplier to provide the time stamp of the PG. This prototype was tested with 63 MeV protons delivered from a cyclotron: a time resolution of 276 ps (FWHM) was obtained, resulting in a proton range sensitivity of 4 mm at 2$σ$ with the acquisition of only 600 PGs. A second prototype was also evaluated with 148 MeV protons delivered from a synchro-cyclotron obtaining a time resolution below 167 ps (FWHM) for the gamma detector. Moreover, using two identical PG modules, it was shown that a uniform sensitivity on the PG profiles would be achievable by combining the response of gamma detectors uniformly distributed around the target. This work provides the experimental proof-of-concept for the development of a high sensitivity detector that can be used to monitor particle therapy treatments and potentially act in real-time if the irradiation does not comply to treatment plan.

Factors Influencing Recruitment of Sydney Rock Oysters (Saccostrea Glomerata) in NSW, Australia

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The worldwide degradation of oyster reefs, and a growing appreciation of their considerable ecological and socio-economic worth, has prompted the development of strategies to recover their habitat. In environments with larval supply, recruitment can be a good indicator of restoration potential. We implemented a field experiment in five estuaries of New South Wales, Australia, spanning eight degrees of latitude, to determine how abiotic and biotic factors interact to influence Saccostrea glomerata recruitment. In each estuary, we deployed concrete substrate for oyster settlement at three sites of varying distance from the river mouth, each proximate to extant oyster populations. Substrate was deployed across a tidal elevation gradient spanning the mid intertidal to shallow subtidal and was caged, uncaged, or partially caged, so as to assess the importance of predation to recruitment. The number of recruits varied among estuaries along the latitudinal gradient, decreasing with increasing average temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, and turbidity. Recruit density also varied within sites, initially increasing with tidal elevation and consistently increasing with caging. Consequently, recruitment of S. glomerata appeared limited both by environmental factors and predation. Hence, predator exclusion and habitat suitability modelling are needed to maximise the probability of successful oyster reef restoration.

description: Many recent exciting discoveries have revealed the versatility of RNAs and their importance in a variety of cellular functions which are strongly coupled to RNA structures. To understand the functions of RNAs, some structure prediction models have been developed in recent years. In this review, the progress in computational models for RNA structure prediction is introduced and the distinguishing features of many outstanding algorithms are discussed, emphasizing three dimensional (3D) structure prediction. A promising coarse-grained model for predicting RNA 3D structure, stability and salt effect is also introduced briefly. Finally, we discuss the major challenges in the RNA 3D structure modeling.

Odd-frequency pairing and Ising spin susceptibility in time-reversal invariant superfluids and superconductors
Creators: name: Mizushima, Takeshi
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We here examine the relation between odd-frequency spin-triple even-parity (OTE) Cooper pairs and anomalous surface magnetic response in time-reversal invariant (TRI) spin-triplet superfluids and superconductors. The spin susceptibility generally consists of two contributions: Even-frequency odd-parity pair amplitudes and odd-frequency even-parity pair amplitudes. The OTE pair amplitudes are absent in the bulk region, but ubiquitously exist in the surface and interface region as Andreev bound states. We here clarify that additional discrete symmetries, originating from the internal symmetry and point group symmetry, impose strong constraint on the OTE pair amplitudes emergent in the surface of TRI superfluids and superconductors. As a result of the symmetry constraint, the magnetic response of the OTE pairs yields Ising-like anisotropy. For the topological phase of the $^3$He-B in a restricted geometry, the coupling of the OTE pair amplitudes to an applied field is prohibited by an additional discrete symmetry. Once the discrete symmetry is broken, however, the OTE pairs start to couple to the applied field, which anomalously enhances surface spin susceptibility. Furthermore, we extend this theory to TRI superconductors, where the corresponding discrete symmetry is the mirror reflection symmetry.

description: Tea is one of the most important cash crops in Bangladesh, playing a significant role in food security, poverty alleviation, employment, and the economy. As a rain-fed crop, tea cultivation depends on micro-climatic conditions for optimal growth. Bangladesh observed extreme weather and climate events over the last couple of decades. Bangladesh is experiencing the frequency of climate variations and extreme weather events, like prolonged drought, heavy rainfall, and late winter spells. The study area was carried out at Malnicherra tea estate in Sylhet district to correlate the micro-climatic variables to tea productivity. The study also examines the trend of micro-climatic variables like maximum temperature, minimum temperature, and rainfall by using the time series data from 2012 to 2017. The simple linear regressions reveal that temperature and rainfall influence tea production. Tea production was negatively impacted by drought and excessive rainfall. Heavy rains eroded the top fertile soil and washed away soil nutrients. The yield of tea leaf was declining at the rate of 110.8 kg/ha/year. There was a high negative relationship between mean maximum temperature and yield of tea. The study recommends an integrated adaptive measure to minimize adverse effects.
The Intrinsic Neptune Trojan Orbit Distribution: Implications for the Primordial Disk and Planet Migration

description: The present-day orbit distribution of the Neptune Trojans is a powerful probe of the dynamical environment of the outer solar system during the late stages of planet migration. In this work, I conservatively debias the inclination, eccentricity, and libration amplitude distributions of the Neptune Trojans by reducing a priori unknown discovery and follow-up survey properties to nuisance parameters and using a likelihood-free Bayesian rejection sampler for parameter estimation. Using this survey-agnostic approach, I confirm that the Neptune Trojans are a dynamically excited population: at $>$95% confidence, the Neptune Trojans' inclination width must be $σ_i > 11^\circ$. For comparison and motivation purposes, I also model the Jupiter Trojan orbit distributions in the same basis and produce new estimates of their parameters (Jupiter Trojan $σ_i=14.4^\circ \pm 0.5^\circ$, $σ_{L11} = 11.8^\circ \pm 0.5^\circ$, and $σ_e = 0.061\pm 0.002$). The debiased inclination, libration amplitude, and eccentricity distributions of the Neptune Trojans are nominally very similar to those of the Jupiter Trojans. I use these new constraints to inform a suite of simulations of Neptune Trojan capture by an eccentric, rapidly-migrating Neptune from an initially dynamically-hot disk. These simulations demonstrate that if migration and eccentricity-damping timescales were short ($τ_a \lesssim 10$ Myr, $τ_e \lesssim 1$ Myr), the disk that Neptune migrated into must have been pre-heated (prior to Neptune's appearance) to a width comparable to the Neptune Trojans' extant width to produce a captured population with an inclination distribution width consistent with that of the observed population.
