description: The in-plane magnetoresistance (MR) of a single crystal La_{1.97}Sr_{0.03}CuO_{4} has been studied at low temperatures T using several experimental protocols. At T well below the spin-glass transition temperature, the MR becomes positive and exhibits several glassy features, such as history dependence, memory and hysteresis. These observations are qualitatively similar to the previously reported behavior of the out-of-plane resistance. The results suggest that the memory effects in the MR are related to the onset of glassiness in the dynamics of doped holes.

description: Research team members at the University of Kentucky in the Department of Civil Engineering and the Kentucky Transportation Center (KTC) worked with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) to develop a high-level mechanism for ranking highway-rail crossings for reconstruction and/or rehabilitation. The Highway Rail Crossing Prioritization implementation study yielded the Rail Crossing Improvement Priority (RCIP), which combined qualitative measures of crossing conditions with quantitative measures including proposed project costs and a valuation of the crossing based on rail and truck traffic. This effort provides a template by which further development can yield prioritization procedures for road-rail grade separation projects.

description: In usual scale-free networks of Barabasi-Albert type, a newly added node selects randomly m neighbors from the already existing network nodes, proportionally to the number of links these had before. Then the number N(k) of nodes with k links each decays as 1/k^gamma where gamma=3 is universal, i.e. independent of m. Now we use a limited directedness in the construction of the network, as a result of which the exponent gamma decreases from 3 to 2 for increasing m.

Discovery of gamma-ray emission from the Broad Line Radio Galaxy Pictor A

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: We report the discovery of high-energy γ-ray emission from the Broad Line Radio Galaxy (BLRG) Pictor A with a significance of ~5.8σ(TS=33.4), based on three years of observations with the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) detector. The three-year averaged E>0.2 GeV γ-ray spectrum is adequately described by a power-law, with a photon index, Γ, of $2.93 \pm 0.03$ and a resultant integrated flux of $F_γ=(5.8\pm0.7) \times 10^{-9}$ ph cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$. A temporal investigation of the observed γ-ray flux, which binned the flux into year long intervals, reveals that the flux in the third year was 50% higher than the three-year average flux. This observation, coupled with the fact that this source was not detected in the first two years of {Fermi-LAT observations, suggests variability on timescales of a year or less. Synchrotron Self-Compton modelling of the spectral energy distribution of a prominent hot-spot in Pictor A's western radio lobe is performed. It is found that the models in which the γ-ray emission originates within the lobes, predicts an X-ray flux larger than that observed. Given that the X-ray emission in the radio lobe hot-spots has been resolved with the current suite of X-ray detectors, we suggest that the γ-ray emission from Pictor A originates from within its jet, which is in agreement with other γ-ray loud BLRGs. This suggestion is consistent with the evidence that the γ-ray flux is variable on timescales of a year or less.

The coupling between one- and two-phonon terms in the wave functions of excited states are taken into account. We use the finite-rank separable approximation which enables one to perform the QRPA calculations in very large two-quasiparticle spaces. Our results from the SGII Skyrme interaction in connection with the volume pairing interaction are in reasonable agreement with experimental data. In particular, we present the successful description of the M1 transition between low-energy quadrupole excitations.

It is argued that the enhancement of the cross section at sub-barrier energies may be consistent with recent experimental observations that nucleon transfer, often leading to breakup, is dominant compared to direct breakup. The main trends of the experimental complete fusion cross section for $^{6,7}$Li + $^{209}$Bi are analyzed in the framework of the DPP approach.

description: Twisted and rope-like assemblies of filamentous molecules are common and vital structural elements in cells and tissue of living organisms. We study the intrinsic frustration occurring in these materials between the two-dimensional organization of filaments in cross section and out-of-plane interfilament twist in bundles. Using non-linear continuum elasticity theory of columnar materials, we study the favorable coupling of twist-induced stresses to the presence of edge dislocations in the lattice packing of bundles, which leads to a restructuring of the ground-state order of these materials at intermediate twist. The stability of dislocations increases as both the degree of twist and lateral bundle size grow. We show that in ground states of large bundles, multiple dislocations pile up into linear arrays, radial grain boundaries, whose number and length grows with bundle twist, giving rise to a rich class of "polycrystalline" packings.

description: We compare two established and a new method for the calculation of spectral bounds for Hessian matrices on hyperrectangles by applying them to a large collection of 1522 objective and constraint functions extracted from benchmark global optimization problems. Both the tightness of the spectral bounds and the computational effort are assessed. Specifically, we compare eigenvalue bounds obtained with the interval variant of Gershgorin's circle criterion [2,6], Hertz and Rohn's [7,16] method for tight bounds of interval matrices, and a recently proposed Hessian matrix eigenvalue arithmetic [12], which deliberately avoids the computation of interval Hessians.

description: The interpretation of hypernuclear gamma-ray data for p-shell hypernuclei in terms of shell-model calculations that include the coupling of Lambda- and Sigma-hypernuclear states is briefly reviewed. Next, Lambda 8Li, Lambda 8Be, and Lambda 9Li are considered, both to exhibit features of Lambda-Sigma coupling and as possible source of observed, but unassigned, hypernuclear gamma rays. Then, the feasibility of measuring the ground-state doublet spacing of Lambda 10Be, which, like Lambda 9Li, could be studied via the (K-,pi0 gamma) reaction, is investigated. Structural information relevant to the population of states in these hypernuclei in recent (e,e'K+) studies is also given. Finally, the extension of the shell-model calculations to sd-shell hypernuclei is briefly considered.

description: It is shown that if, from the starting point of a universal rank-one mass matrix long favoured by phenomenologists, one adds the assumption that it rotates (changes its orientation in generation space) with changing scale, one can reproduce, in terms of only 6 real parameters, all the 16 mass ratios and mixing parameters of quarks and leptons. Of these 16 quantities so reproduced, 10 for which data exist for direct comparison (i.e. the CKM elements including the CP-violating phase, the angles $θ_{12}, θ_{13}, θ_{23}$ in $ν$-oscillation, and the masses $m_c, m_μ, m_e$) agree well with experiment, mostly to within experimental errors; 4 others ($m_s, m_u, m_d, m_{ν_2}$), the experimental values for which can only be inferred, agree reasonably well; while 2 others ($m_{ν_1}, δ_{CP}$ for leptons), not yet measured experimentally, remain as predictions. In addition, one gets as bonuses, estimates for (i) the right-handed neutrino mass $m_{ν_R}$ and (ii) the strong CP angle $θ$ inherent in QCD. One notes in particular that the output value for $\sin^2 2 θ_{13}$ from the fit agrees very well with recent experiments. By inputting the current experimental value with its error, one obtains further from the fit 2 new testable constraints: (i) that $θ_{23}$ must depart from its "maximal" value: $\sin^2 2 θ_{23} \sim 0.935 \pm 0.021$, (ii) that the CP-violating (Dirac) phase in the PMNS would be smaller than in the CKM matrix: of order only $|\sin δ_{CP}| \leq 0.31$ if not vanishing altogether.

The Constitutive Relations and the Magnetoelectric Effect for Moving Media
Creators: name: Ivezic, Tomislav
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper the constitutive relations for moving media with homogeneous and isotropic electric and magnetic properties are presented as the connections between the generalized magnetization-polarization bivector $%\mathcal{M}$ and the electromagnetic field F. Using the decompositions of F and $\mathcal{M}$, it is shown how the polarization vector P(x) and the magnetization vector M(x) depend on E, B and two different velocity vectors, u - the bulk velocity vector of the medium, and v - the velocity vector of the observers who measure E and B fields. These constitutive relations with four-dimensional geometric quantities, which correctly transform under the Lorentz transformations (LT), are compared with Minkowski's constitutive relations with the 3-vectors and several essential differences are pointed out. They are caused by the fact that, contrary to the general opinion, the usual transformations of the 3-vectors $% \mathbf{E}$, $\mathbf{B}$, $\mathbf{P}$, $\mathbf{M}$, etc. are not the LT. The physical explanation is presented for the existence of the magnetoelectric effect in moving media that essentially differs from the traditional one.

title: Assisted teleoperation in changing environments with a mixture of virtual guides

Publisher: name: Taylor & Francis
Year: 2022

description: Haptic guidance is a powerful technique to combine the strengths of humans and autonomous systems for teleoperation. The autonomous system can provide haptic cues to enable the operator to perform precise movements; the operator can interfere with the plan of the autonomous system leveraging his/her superior cognitive capabilities. However, providing haptic cues such that the individual strengths are not impaired is challenging because low forces provide little guidance, whereas strong forces can hinder the operator in realizing his/her plan. Based on variational inference, we learn a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) over trajectories to accomplish a given task. The learned GMM is used to construct a potential field which determines the haptic cues. The potential field smoothly changes during teleoperation based on our updated belief over the plans and their respective phases. Furthermore, new plans are learned online when the operator does not follow any of the proposed plans or after changes in the environment. User studies confirm that our framework helps users perform teleoperation tasks more accurately than without haptic cues and, in some cases, faster. Moreover, we demonstrate the use of our framework to help a subject teleoperate a 7 DoF manipulator in a pick-and-place task.

description: Rapid digitalization and an aging population are leading to an increasingly prominent age-based digital divide among the world’s elderly population. This study focuses on China, one of the most rapidly aging and digitalizing countries in the world. Employing a mixed-method approach, this research examines how elderly individuals experience the digital transformation and the associated digital divide. The findings suggest that the elderly interviewees encounter multiple barriers to learning and using digital technologies, which highlights the significant role of social support and networks in facilitating their adaptation to the digital society and lifestyle. Attitudes toward digital engagement and digitalization vary greatly among the elderly, ranging from being optimistic to feeling left behind and having multiple concerns. Our findings further reveal that the Chinese government has implemented numerous digital apps tailored to the demands of the elderly and provided training opportunities to bridge the gray digital divide. This emphasizes the responsiveness and adaptiveness of Chinese authorities in addressing pressing societal issues. However, we identify a gap in digital outreach, as most elderly interviewees have limited awareness of government digital inclusion policies and programs. This article contributes to digital divide research and offers practical implications for countries grappling with the gray digital divide.

The films, with x=0.03 and x=0.05, are insulating, and the positive MR emerges at T<4 K. The positive MR exhibits glassy features, including history dependence and memory, for all orientations of B. The results show that this behavior, which reflects the onset of glassiness in the dynamics of doped holes, is a robust feature of the insulating state.

description: In this paper we investigate the behavior of a family of steady state solutions of a nonlinear reaction diffusion equation when some reaction and potential terms are concentrated in a $ε$-neighborhood of a portion $Γ$ of the boundary. We assume that this $ε$-neighborhood shrinks to $Γ$ as the small parameter $ε$ goes to zero. Also, we suppose the upper boundary of this $ε$-strip presents a highly oscillatory behavior. Our main goal here is to show that this family of solutions converges to the solutions of a limit problem, a nonlinear elliptic equation that captures the oscillatory behavior. Indeed, the reaction term and concentrating potential are transformed into a flux condition and a potential on $Γ$, which depends on the oscillating neighborhood.

description: Ac susceptibility and static magnetization measurements were performed in the nearly-optimally doped LaFeAsO$_{0.9}$F$_{0.1}$ and CeFeAsO$_{0.92}$F$_{0.08}$ superconductors, complementing earlier results on SmFeAsO$_{0.8}$F$_{0.2}$ [Phys. Rev. {\bf B 83}, 174514 (2011)]. The magnetic field -- temperature phase diagram of the mixed superconducting state is drawn for the three materials, displaying a sizeable reduction of the liquid phase upon increasing $T_{c}$ in the range of applied fields ($H \leq 5$ T). This result indicates that SmFeAsO$_{0.8}$F$_{0.2}$ is the most interesting compound among the investigated ones in view of possible applications. The field-dependence of the intra-grain depinning energy $U_{0}$ exhibits a common trend for all the samples with a typical crossover field value (2500 Oe $\lesssim H_{cr} \lesssim 5000$ Oe) separating regions where single and collective depinning processes are at work. Analysis of the data in terms of a simple two-fluid picture for slightly anisotropic materials allows to estimate the zero-temperature penetration depth $λ_{ab}(0)$ and the anisotropy parameter $γ$ for the three materials. Finally, a sizeable suppression of the superfluid density is deduced in a $s^{\pm}$ two-gap scenario.

description: For the past 20 years, international corporations have been leading the charge for higher education to produce university graduates who are "better prepared" for the needs of the 21st-century global labor market. However, higher education programs continue to create graduates who are competent at taking rigorous academic exams rather than prepared for gainful employment. According to a recent detailed exploration into global industries by one of the most renowned management consulting organizations in the United States, by 2030, there will be more than 85 million empty positions worldwide due to a lack of qualified applicants. In response, vocational education and training programs have stepped up to prepare students for gainful employment as technicians, craftspeople, or artisans in a skilled craft or trade. In a much shorter time, vocational education programs can equip students with relevant knowledge, abilities, and attitudes to autonomously, effectively, and morally mobilize them to solve problems from sustainable development and global citizenship viewpoints. Moreover, companies and sectors worldwide are becoming more aware of the necessity of employees with superior English proficiency so that companies can do business with a wide variety of clients and partners across the globe. In this presentation, we will look at the advantages of vocational English in increasing better international communication across geographically dispersed workforces. We will also look at some practical methods of teaching vocational English, such as utilizing authentic examples of English to demonstrate how English is used for communication with the rest of the world and employing individuals who have worked for some time in a target industry to share authentic stories of how English plays a part in their daily life lessons.

description: Kempf et al. in Ref. [1] have formulated a Hilbert space representation of quantum mechanics with a minimal measurable length. Recently it has been revealed, in the context of doubly special relativity, that a test particles' momentum cannot be arbitrarily imprecise and therefore there is an upper bound for momentum fluctuations. Taking this achievement into account, we generalize the seminal work of Kempf {\it et al.} to the case that there is also a maximal particles' momentum. Existence of an upper bound for the test particles' momentum provides several novel and interesting features, some of which are studied in this paper.

Section 117, Stock Assessments, required the establishment of three regional scientific review groups to advise and report on the status of marine mammal stocks within Alaska waters, along the Pacific Coast (including Hawaii), and the Atlantic Coast (including the Gulf of Mexico).  This report provides information on the marine mammal stocks of Alaska under the jurisdiction of the National Marine Fisheries Service. Each stock assessment includes, when available, a description of the stock's geographic range, a minimum population estimate, current population trends, current and maximum net productivity rates, optimum sustainable population levels and allowable removal levels, and estimates of annual human-caused mortality and serious injury through interactions with commercial fisheries and subsistence hunters. These data will be used to evaluate the progress of each fishery towards achieving the MMPA's goal of zero fishery-related mortality and serious injury of marine mammals.

description: L'anoressia nervosa, spesso chiamata semplicemente anoressia, è un gravedisturbo dell'alimentazione caratterizzato da un peso corporeo eccessivamente basso, dallariduzione delle calorie ingerite quotidianamente, da una intensa paura di prendere peso e daalterazioni nella relazione con il proprio corpo. Le persone con anoressia nervosa esercitano unpatologico controllo sul proprio peso e forme corporee, controllo che interferisce sempre piùsignificativamente sulla loro vita. Se non adeguatamente trattato, il disturbo tende acronicizzarsi manifestandosi con problematiche fisiche, psicologiche e sociali molto invalidanti.

description: We study the notion of approximate entropy within the framework of network theory. Approximate entropy is an uncertainty measure originally proposed in the context of dynamical systems and time series. We firstly define a purely structural entropy obtained by computing the approximate entropy of the so called slide sequence. This is a surrogate of the degree sequence and it is suggested by the frequency partition of a graph. We examine this quantity for standard scale-free and Erdős-Rényi networks. By using classical results of Pincus, we show that our entropy measure converges with network size to a certain binary Shannon entropy. On a second step, with specific attention to networks generated by dynamical processes, we investigate approximate entropy of horizontal visibility graphs. Visibility graphs permit to naturally associate to a network the notion of temporal correlations, therefore providing the measure a dynamical garment. We show that approximate entropy distinguishes visibility graphs generated by processes with different complexity. The result probes to a greater extent these networks for the study of dynamical systems. Applications to certain biological data arising in cancer genomics are finally considered in the light of both approaches.

description: The equation of state and composition of the inner crust of neutron stars at zero temperature are calculated, using the T = 0 version of the TETFSI (temperature-dependent extended Thomas-Fermi plus Strutinsky integral) method, for each of a family of three functionals based on Skyrme-type forces BSk19, BSk20 and BSk21, which are characterized by different degrees of symmetry-energy stiffness, and also for the SLy4 functional. We also solve the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations to calculate the distribution of mass within the inner crust. Qualitatively similar results are found for all four functionals, and in particular the number of protons per Wigner-Seitz cell is in all cases equal to 40 throughout the inner crust.

description: The  Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) requires the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to estimate annual levels of human - caused mortality and serious injury to  marine mammal stocks (section 117) and to categorize commercial fisheries based on their level  of incidental mortality and serious injury of marine mammals (section 118). Serious injury (SI) determinations were addressed at NMFS convened workshops in 1997 and 2007 (Angliss and DeMaster 1998; Andersen et al. 2008), and in January 2012 the agency published national  guidelines for distinguishing serious from non-serious injuries of marine mammals 1. The  resulting SI determinations are combined with anthropogenic mortality values for comparison to  each stock's Potential Biological Removal (PBR) in annual marine mammal stock assessment  reports (SARs). This report summarizes the SI determinations for baleen whale stocks along the  Gulf of Mexico, United States east coast, and Atlantic Canadian Provinces for 2008 through 2012. The stocks we cover include th e North Atlantic right whale ( Eubalaena glacialis), Gulf of  Maine humpback whale ( Megaptera novaeangliae), Western North Atlantic fin whale ( Balaenoptera physalus), Nova Scotian sei whale (B. borealis), Western North Atlantic blue whale (B. musculus), Canadian East Coast minke whale (B. acutorostrata), and the Northern Gulf of Mexico Bryde's whale (B. edeni).
Partial expansion of a Lipschitz domain and some applications

description: We show that a Lipschitz domain can be expanded solely near a part of its boundary, assuming that the part is enclosed by a piecewise C1 curve. The expanded domain as well as the extended part are both Lipschitz. We apply this result to prove a regular decomposition of standard vector Sobolev spaces with vanishing traces only on part of the boundary. Another application in the construction of low-regularity projectors into finite element spaces with partial boundary conditions is also indicated.

description: A model of low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (LFQPOs) of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) is proposed based on the perturbed magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations of accretion disk. It turns out that the LFQPOs frequencies of some BHXBs can be fitted by the frequencies of the toroidal Alfvén wave oscillation corresponding to the maximal radiation flux. In addition, the positive correlation of the LFQPO frequencies with the radiation flux from accretion disk is well interpreted.

description: The Southeast Gillnet Observer Program has adapted to the changes of the Florida- Georgia shark gillnet fishery since the program began in 1993 (e.g. Carlson and Bethea 2007 and references therein, Mathers et al. 2014). There are currently about 500 total directed and incidental shark permits issued in the US Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, while the number of gillnet fishers changes from year to year. Gillnet effort targeting large coastal (LCS) and small coastal (SCS) sharks, has declined in recent years as a result of Amendments 2 and 3 to the Consolidated Atlantic Highly Migratory Species Fishery Management Plan (NMFS 2007, 2010). Fishers have consequently increased effort targeting finfish, including Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus maculatus, king mackerel Scomberomorus cavalla, and bluefish Pomatomus saltatrix, with varying types of gillnet gear. However, a small amount of shark targeted gillnet effort continues to be observed. The Southeast Gillnet Observer Program, in its continuing efforts to adapt to the fishery, currently covers anchored (sink and stab), strike, or drift gillnet fishing regardless of target by vessels that fish from Florida to North Carolina and the Gulf of Mexico year-round. Herein, we summarize fishing effort and catch and bycatch in these fisheries during January 2014 - December 2014, collectively referred to as '2014.'

description: This article examines the cognitive evolution and disciplinary diversity of nanotechnology as expressed through the terminology used in titles of nano journal articles. The analysis is based on the NanoBank bibliographic database of 287,106 nano articles published between 1981 and 2004. We perform multifaceted analyses of title words, focusing on 100 most frequent terms. Hierarchical clustering of title terms reveals three distinct time periods of cognitive development of nano research: formative (1981-1990), early (1991-1998), and current (after 1998). Early period is characterized by the introduction of thin film deposition techniques, while the current period is characterized by the increased focus on carbon nanotube and nanoparticle research. We introduce a method to identify disciplinary components of nanotechnology. It shows that the nano research is being carried out in a number of diverse parent disciplines. Currently only 5% of articles are published in dedicated nano-only journals. We find that some 85% of nano research today is multidisciplinary. Hierarchical clustering of disciplinary components reveals that the cognitive content of current nanoscience can be divided into nine clusters. Some clusters account for a large fraction of nano research and are identified with such parent disciplines as the condensed matter and applied physics, materials science, and analytical chemistry. Other clusters represent much smaller parts of nano research, but are as cognitively distinct. In the decreasing order of size, these fields are: polymer science, biotechnology, general chemistry, surface science, and pharmacology. Cognitive content of research published in nano-only journals is closest to nano research published in condensed matter and applied physics journals.
