description: Tuning the chain-end functionality of a short-chain cationic homopolymer, owing to the nature of the initiator used in the ATRP polymerisation step, can be used to mediate the formation of a gel of this poly(electrolyte) in water. While a neutral end group gives a solution of low viscosity, a highly homogeneous gel is obtained with a phosphonate anionic moiety, as characterized by rheometry and diffusion NMR. This novel type of supramolecular control over poly(electrolytic) gel formation could find potential use in a variety of applications in the field of electroactive materials.
Characteristics of Spiral Arms in Late-type Galaxies

description: We have measured the positions of large numbers of H II regions in four nearly face-on, late-type, spiral galaxies: NGC 628 (M 74), NGC 1232, NGC 3184 and NGC 5194 (M 51). Fitting log-periodic spiral models to segments of each arm yields local estimates of spiral pitch angle and arm width. While pitch angles vary considerably along individual arms, among arms within a galaxy, and among galaxies, we find no systematic trend with galactocentric distance. We estimate the widths of the arm segments from the scatter in the distances of the H II regions from the spiral model. All major arms in these galaxies show spiral arm width increasing with distance from the galactic center, similar to the trend seen in the Milky Way. However, in the outer-most parts of the galaxies, where massive star formation declines, some arms reverse this trend and narrow. We find that spiral arms often appear to be composed of segments of ~5 kpc length, which join to form kinks and abrupt changes in pitch angle and arm width; these characteristics are consistent with properties seen in the large N-body simulations of D'Onghia, Vogelsberger and Hernquist (2013) and others.

description: To control and reduce emissions of landfills, by accelerating the biodegradation of waste, leachate treatment and reducing the time to achieve landfill stabilization, various solutions have been investigated and implemented at the international level. In the case of existing traditional landfills, controlled infiltration of leachate or liquids, and/or in situ aeration of the waste mass allow the biological stabilization of the landfill in the medium to long term perspective. Other options of site remediation after this biological stabilization can also be evaluated. To face the problems related to local conditions and modelling of long-term data uncertainty, a model was developed to help landfill technicians and decision-makers with a probabilistic environmental and economic assessment, using different options for landfill stabilization, to promote its sustainability. The result of this work is a modelling tool named MATERS (Environmental and Economic assessment Model for Landfill Sustainability) which is an integrated probabilistic model that simulates the production and composition of landfill gas and leachate, and respective treatment, for the whole life cycle of a landfill. Moreover, the results obtained with MATERS deliver an annual and total life cycle assessment of the environmental and economic impacts, with respective risks associated with specific landfill operations, or aftercare management, in a short, medium to long term view. The introductory description of the conceptual model and the results that can be obtained with this tool are given.

description: Feedback from AGN, galactic mergers, and sloshing are thought to give rise to turbulence, which may prevent cooling in clusters. We aim to measure the turbulence in clusters of galaxies and compare the measurements to some of their structural and evolutionary properties. It is possible to measure the turbulence of the hot gas in clusters by estimating the velocity widths of their X-ray emission lines. The RGS Spectrometers aboard XMM-Newton are currently the only instruments provided with sufficient effective area and spectral resolution in this energy domain. We benefited from excellent 1.6Ms new data provided by the CHEERS project. The new observations improve the quality of the archival data and allow us to place constraints for some clusters, which were not accessible in previous work. One-half of the sample shows upper limits on turbulence less than 500km/s. For several sources, our data are consistent with relatively strong turbulence with upper limits on the velocity widths that are larger than 1000km/s. The NGC507 group of galaxies shows transonic velocities, which are most likely associated with the merging phenomena and bulk motions occurring in this object. Where both low- and high-ionization emission lines have good enough statistics, we find larger upper limits for the hot gas, which is partly due to the different spatial extents of the hot and cool gas phases. Our upper limits are larger than the Mach numbers required to balance cooling, suggesting that dissipation of turbulence may prevent cooling, although other heating processes could be dominant. The systematics associated with the spatial profile of the source continuum make this technique very challenging, though still powerful, for current instruments. The ASTRO-H and Athena missions will revolutionize the velocity estimates and discriminate between different spatial regions and temperature phases.

These are the first four Milnor-Witt stems. We start with the known Ext groups over C and apply the rho-Bockstein spectral sequence to obtain Ext groups over R. This is the input to an Adams spectral sequence, which collapses in our low dimensional range.

description: The material class of kagome metals has rapidly grown and has been established as a field to explore the interplay between electronic topology and magnetism. In this work, we report a combined theoretical and experimental study of the anomalous Hall effect of the ferromagnetic kagome metal Fe$_3$Sn. The compound orders magnetically at 725 K and presents an easy-plane anisotropy. Hall measurements in single crystals below room temperature yield an anomalous Hall conductivity $σ_{xy}\sim500\,(Ω\textrm{cm})^{-1}$, which is found to depend weakly on temperature. This value is in good agreement with the band-intrinsic contribution obtained by density-functional calculations. Our calculations also yield the correct magnetic anisotropy energy and predict the existence of Weyl nodes near the Fermi energy.

description: We consider the spectrum of correlation lengths of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ chain in the antiferromagnetic massive regime. These are given as ratios of eigenvalues of the quantum transfer matrix of the model. The eigenvalues are determined by integrals over certain auxiliary functions and by their zeros. The auxiliary functions satisfy nonlinear integral equations. We analyse these nonlinear integral equations in the low-temperature limit. In this limit we can determine the auxiliary functions and the expressions for the eigenvalues as functions of a finite number of parameters which satisfy finite sets of algebraic equations, the so-called higher-level Bethe Ansatz equations. The behaviour of these equations, if we send the temperature $T$ to zero, is different for zero and non-zero magnetic field $h$. If $h$ is zero the situation is much like in the case of the usual transfer matrix. Non-trivial higher-level Bethe Ansatz equations remain which determine certain complex excitation parameters as functions of hole parameters which are free on a line segment in the complex plane. If $h$ is non-zero, on the other hand, a remarkable restructuring occurs, and all parameters which enter the description of the quantum transfer matrix eigenvalues can be interpreted entirely in terms of particles and holes which are freely located on two curves when $T$ goes to zero.

description: We consider the problem of graph analytics on evolving graphs. In this scenario, a query typically needs to be applied to different snapshots of the graph over an extended time window. We propose CommonGraph, an approach for efficient processing of queries on evolving graphs. We first observe that edge deletions are significantly more expensive than addition operations. CommonGraph converts all deletions to additions by finding a common graph that exists across all snapshots. After computing the query on this graph, to reach any snapshot, we simply need to add the missing edges and incrementally update the query results. CommonGraph also allows sharing of common additions among snapshots that require them, and breaks the sequential dependency inherent in the traditional streaming approach where snapshots are processed in sequence, enabling additional opportunities for parallelism. We incorporate the CommonGraph approach by extending the KickStarter streaming framework. CommonGraph achieves 1.38x-8.17x improvement in performance over Kickstarter across multiple benchmarks.

description: Imbalanced datasets are commonly observed in various real-world applications, presenting significant challenges in training classifiers. When working with large datasets, the imbalanced issue can be further exacerbated, making it exceptionally difficult to train classifiers effectively. To address the problem, over-sampling techniques have been developed to linearly interpolating data instances between minorities and their neighbors. However, in many real-world scenarios such as anomaly detection, minority instances are often dispersed diversely in the feature space rather than clustered together. Inspired by domain-agnostic data mix-up, we propose generating synthetic samples iteratively by mixing data samples from both minority and majority classes. It is non-trivial to develop such a framework, the challenges include source sample selection, mix-up strategy selection, and the coordination between the underlying model and mix-up strategies. To tackle these challenges, we formulate the problem of iterative data mix-up as a Markov decision process (MDP) that maps data attributes onto an augmentation strategy. To solve the MDP, we employ an actor-critic framework to adapt the discrete-continuous decision space. This framework is utilized to train a data augmentation policy and design a reward signal that explores classifier uncertainty and encourages performance improvement, irrespective of the classifier's convergence. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework through extensive experiments conducted on seven publicly available benchmark datasets using three different types of classifiers. The results of these experiments showcase the potential and promise of our framework in addressing imbalanced datasets with diverse minorities.

description: Ergonomic efficiency is essential to the mass and prolonged adoption of VR/AR experiences. While VR/AR head-mounted displays unlock users' natural wide-range head movements during viewing, their neck muscle comfort is inevitably compromised by the added hardware weight. Unfortunately, little quantitative knowledge for understanding and addressing such an issue is available so far. Leveraging electromyography devices, we measure, model, and predict VR users' neck muscle contraction levels (MCL) while they move their heads to interact with the virtual environment. Specifically, by learning from collected physiological data, we develop a bio-physically inspired computational model to predict neck MCL under diverse head kinematic states. Beyond quantifying the cumulative MCL of completed head movements, our model can also predict potential MCL requirements with target head poses only. A series of objective evaluations and user studies demonstrate its prediction accuracy and generality, as well as its ability in reducing users' neck discomfort by optimizing the layout of visual targets. We hope this research will motivate new ergonomic-centered designs for VR/AR and interactive graphics applications. Source code is released at: https://github.com/NYU-ICL/xr-ergonomics-neck-comfort.

description: The gravitational Dirichlet problem -- in which the induced metric is fixed on boundaries at finite distance from the bulk -- is related to simple notions of UV cutoffs in gauge/gravity duality and appears in discussions relating the low-energy behavior of gravity to fluid dynamics. We study the Einstein-Maxwell version of this problem, in which the induced Maxwell potential on the wall is also fixed. For flat walls in otherwise-asymptotically-flat spacetimes, we identify a moduli space of Majumdar-Papapetrou-like static solutions parametrized by the location of an extreme black hole relative to the wall. Such solutions may be described as balancing gravitational repulsion from a negative-mass image-source against electrostatic attraction to an oppositely-signed image charge. Standard techniques for handling divergences yield a moduli space metric with an eigenvalue that becomes negative near the wall, indicating a region of negative kinetic energy and suggesting that the Hamiltonian may be unbounded below. One may also surround the black hole with an additional (roughly spherical) Dirichlet wall to impose a regulator whose physics is more clear. Negative kinetic energies remain, though new terms do appear in the moduli-space metric. The regulator-dependence indicates that the adiabatic approximation may be ill-defined for classical extreme black holes with Dirichlet walls.

До этого момента Основной Закон страны закреплял за гражданами такое право, но не обеспечивал в полной мере его реализацию доступными способами, при том что в некоторых регионах, участвующих в период с 2005 по 2010 г. в эксперименте по созданию государственной системы оказания бесплатной юридической помощи малоимущим гражданам, были созданы юридические бюро в виде федеральных государственных учреждений. Вместе с тем в вышеуказанном законе есть ряд факторов, снижающих его эффективность в части обеспечения равного доступа к правосудию граждан этой категории, а также вовлеченности субъектов в ее оказание. В исследовании проанализирована сложившаяся ситуация в сфере реализации прав граждан на получение правовой поддержки, рассмотрены экспериментальные проекты по оказанию бесплатной юридической помощи посредством электронных сервисов и цифровизации данной сферы, предложен возможный вариант устранения существующих пробелов с помощью единообразия предоставления юридических услуг и передачи финансирования расходных обязательств субъектов в рамках реализации на федеральный уровень.
description: Citizens’ rights to pro bono legal assistance were implemented at the law level by the adoption of the Federal Law No. 324-FZ “On Pro Bono Legal Assistance” by the State Duma in November 2011. Prior to that, the Constitutional Law of the country enshrined the citizens’ right to pro bono legal assistance but did not provide its full implementation via available means. At the same time, public law offices in a form of federal state institutes were established in some regions, which participated in the experiment on establishing a public system for pro bono legal assistance to low income citizens in 2005‒2010. In addition to that, the foregoing law has a number of factors decreasing the efficiency of equal access to justice for low-income citizens and providing low involvement of subjects. The study analyzes current situation in the field of implementation of citizens’ rights to legal assistance, and considers pilot projects on pro bono legal assistance via e-services and digitalization of the field. A possible option for leveling existing gaps with legal services’ uniformity and financing expenditure commitments of the subjects under implementation of subsidiary legal assistance at the federal level was proposed.

description: This thesis examines human rights practices in Lagos, Nigeria, during an era of military dictatorships in the late twentieth century. The period witnessed the rise of a human rights movement in Lagos through non-governmental organizations (NGOs), beginning with the Civil Liberties Organization in October 1987. From that year through the 1990s, human rights practices of both state and non-state actors in the city changed in complex ways. This study argues that the rise of this NGO movement transformed such practices in Lagos by introducing paradigms of confrontation and collaboration, based on strategies of resistance, repression, and cooperation. Mainly utilizing primary source material, this paper aids a better understanding of human rights practices in the city and the impact of NGOs on these practices. It thus engages and goes beyond scholarly and popular discourses that foreign influence or state control occasioned such practices. It tells a narrative of how strategic, pragmatic, and even expedient considerations prompted this Lagos-based movement and the government to mostly confront, but occasionally collaborate on issues of human rights in the city.

description: While dissipation is widely considered as being harmful for quantum coherence, it can, when properly engineered, lead to the stabilization of non-trivial pure quantum states. We propose a scheme for continuous generation and stabilization of Schrödinger cat states in a cavity using dissipation engineering. We first generate non-classical photon states with definite parity by means of a two-photon drive and dissipation, and then stabilize these transient states against single-photon decay. The single-photon stabilization is autonomous, and is implemented through a second engineered bath, which exploits the photon number dependent frequency-splitting due to Kerr interactions in the strongly dispersive regime of circuit QED. Starting with the Hamiltonian of the baths plus cavity, we derive an effective model of only the cavity photon states along with analytic expressions for relevant physical quantities, such as the stabilization rate. The deterministic generation of such cat states is one of the key ingredients in performing universal quantum computation.

description: We reexamine the branching ratios, $CP$-asymmetries, and other observables in a large number of $B_q\to VV(q=u,d,s)$ decays in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach, where $V$ denotes a light vector meson $(ρ, K^*, ω, ϕ)$. The essential difference between this work and the earlier similar works is of parametric origin and in the estimates of the power corrections related to the ratio $r_i^2=m_{V_i}^2/m_B^2(i=2,3)$ ($m_V$ and $m_B$ denote the masses of the vector and $B$ meson, respectively). In particular, we use up-to-date distribution amplitudes for the final state mesons and keep the terms proportional to the ratio $r_i^2$ in our calculations. Our updated calculations are in agreement with the experimental data, except for a limited number of decays which we discuss. We emphasize that the penguin annihilation and the hard-scattering emission contributions are essential to understand the polarization anomaly, such as in the $B\to ϕK^*$ and $B_s \to ϕϕ$ decay modes. We also compare our results with those obtained in the QCD factorization (QCDF) approach and comment on the similarities and differences, which can be used to discriminate between these approaches in future experiments.

description: We review the skill of thirty coupled climate models participating in Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5 in terms of reproducing properties of the seasonal cycle of precipitation over the major river basins of South and Southeast Asia (Indus, Ganges, Brahmaputra and Mekong) for historical period (1961-2000). We also present projected changes by these models by end of century (2061-2100) under extreme scenario RCP8.5. First, we assess their ability to reproduce observed timings of the monsoon onset and the rate of rapid fractional accumulation (RFA slope) - a measure of seasonality within active monsoon period. Secondly, we apply a threshold-independent seasonality index (SI) - a multiplicative measure of precipitation and extent of its concentration relative to the uniform distribution (relative entropy - RE). We apply SI distinctly for monsoonal precipitation regime (MPR), westerly precipitation regime (WPR) and annual precipitation regime. For present climate, neither any single model nor the multi-model mean performs best in all chosen metrics. Models show overall a modest skill in suggesting right timings of the monsoon onset while the RFA slope is generally underestimated. One third of models fail to capture the monsoon signal over the Indus basin. Mostly, SI estimates for WPR are simulated higher than observed for all basins, while for MPR, it is simulated higher (lower) for Ganges and Brahmaputra (Indus and Mekong) basins, following the pattern of overestimation (underestimation) of precipitation. However, models are biased positive (negative) for RE estimates over Indus and Ganges (Brahmaputra and Mekong) basins, implying the extent of precipitation concentration for MPR and number of dry days within WPR higher (lower) than observed for these basins. Under the RCP8.5 scenario, most of models project a slightly delayed monsoon onset, and a general increase in the RFA slope...

description: Several popular Ansätze of lepton mass matrices that contain texture zeros are confronted with current neutrino observational data. We perform a systematic $χ^2$-analysis in a wide class of schemes, considering arbitrary Hermitian charged lepton mass matrices and symmetric mass matrices for Majorana neutrinos or Hermitian mass matrices for Dirac neutrinos. Our study reveals that several patterns are still consistent with all the observations at 68.27% confidence level, while some others are disfavored or excluded by the experimental data. The well-known Frampton-Glashow-Marfatia two-zero textures, hybrid textures and parallel structures, among others, are considered.

Literature Review

description: This study aims to determine the mapping of research topics around the Kafalah contract in the Islamic Financial Industry using a mix-method approach, namely the VOSviewer bibliometric study and literature review. Data analysis techniques include: (1) mapping the distribution of journal publications regarding the Kafalah contract; (2) mapping the results of the VOSviewer bibliometric visualization regarding the Kafalah contract based on the number of clusters and their items; and (3) mapping research topics around the Kafalah contract using a literature review study. The results of the study show that: (1) based on the mapping of the distribution of journal publications, there are 32 journal publications regarding the Kafalah contract; (2) based on VOSviewer's bibliometric study mapping, the network visualization results around the Kafalah contract are divided into 7 clusters and 87 topic items; (3) based on the mapping of literature review studies, there are 3 main topics surrounding the Kafalah contract. The difference between this research and previous research is that this study explains and maps all research topics around the Kafalah contract so that future researchers can find the research gaps around the Kafalah contract. The implication and contribution of this research are that there is a mapping of research topics around the Kafalah contract, which are often or rarely researched by researchers to be a reference for future researchers.

description: O acervo de negativos em vidro do Observatório Nacional sob a guarda do Museu de Astronomia e Ciências Afins conta com mais de 800 placas fotográficas produzidas a partir da Luneta 32 e da Meridional 46, entre 1914 e 1988. As informações contidas nestes registros são diversas. Entre 2016 e 2018, o acervo passou por um processo de conservação preventiva criado para atender às demandas apresentadas a partir de sua deslocação. Foram encontradas 95 placas quebradas que não apresentavam acondicionamento próprio, fazendo-se necessário traçar um plano de acondicionamento. O objetivo é dar continuidade ao trabalho iniciado pela equipe anterior e re-acondicionar essas placas danificadas, bem como avaliar o estado de conservação através do diagnóstico terminologicamente padronizado de todas as placas do acervo. Como metodologia, para a primeira ação, foi adotado como padrão caixas de papel pluma, papel neutro e cola de pH neutro. Na outra frente, pesquisas foram realizadas para a estruturação e estabelecimento de uma ficha de diagnóstico, a ser adotada para as coleções fotográficas do Museu. Ao total, 28 placas foram submetidas ao novo acondicionamento e 254 placas, ao diagnóstico padronizado. As caixas são de fácil execução e garantem a segurança ao material fragilizado. A ficha de diagnóstico contempla um vocabulário controlado e abrangente, para caracterização das coleções e danos identificados. Estas ações de preservação permitem que o material seja conhecido, digitalizado e consultado futuramente.
