description: The vortex ratchet effect has been studied in Al films patterned with square arrays of submicron antidots. We have investigated the transport properties of two sets of samples: (i) asymmetrical antidots where vortices are driven by an unbiased ac current, and (ii) symmetrical antidots where in addition to the ac drive a dc bias was used. For each sample, the rectified (dc) voltage is measured as a function of drive amplitude and frequency, magnetic field, and temperature. As unambiguously shown by our data, the voltage rectification in the asymmetric antidots is induced by the intrinsic asymmetry in the pinning potential created by the antidots, whereas the rectification in the symmetric antidots is induced by the dc bias. In addition, the experiments reveal interesting collective phenomena in the vortex ratchet effect. At fields below the first matching field ($H_1$), the dc voltage--ac drive characteristics present two rectification peaks, which is interpreted as an interplay between the one-dimensional motion of weakly pinned incommensurate vortex rows and the two-dimensional motion of the whole vortex lattice. We also discuss the different dynamical regimes controlling the motion of interstitial and trapped vortices at fields slightly higher than $H_1$ and their implications for the vortex ratchet effect.

description: Bei der Oberflächenhärtung mit Hilfe von Laserstrahlen ist eine konstante Einhärtetiefe erwünscht, wobei gleichzeitig Anschmelzungen vermieden werden sollen. Um Anschmelzungen zu verhindern, kann die Temperatur im Auftreffpunkt des Lasers gemessen werden und die Laserleistung entsprechend geregelt werden. Eine konstante Temperatur führt bei geometrisch komplizierten Bauteilen jedoch nicht zu einer konstanten Einhärtetiefe. In dieser Arbeit wird ein Verfahren aufgezeigt, wobei durch numerische Simulationen eine nichtkonstante Oberflächentemperatur berechnet wird, die eine konstante Einhärtetiefe liefert. Die berechnete Oberflächentemperatur kann als Solltemperatur im realen Prozess benutzt werden.

description: Many grants, including grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF) require recipients to utilize data management plans; some grants, like those given by NSF, require recipients to place their data in searchable data repositories. It is difficult to find one data repository that meets every researcher's needs. To solve this problem, we utilized Purdue's Data Curation Profile Toolkit to interview researchers at our university and assist in developing data profiles/plans. These profiles provided the Digital Asset Management (DAM) project team with valuable information about the researchers' data needs. The DAM project team created a matrix of the researchers' data needs and used the matrix to evaluate the credentials of 24 Digital Asset Management Systems (DAMS). The team was able to select the DAMS that met the needs of researchers. Using this method, any university could select a DAMS and be confident that it would meet the needs of the researchers it was intended to serve.

description: We present Standard Model predictions for the complete set of phenomenologically relevant electroweak precision pseudo-observables related to the Z-boson: the leptonic and bottom-quark effective weak mixing angles $\sin^2\theta_{\rm eff}^\ell$, $\sin^2\theta_{\rm eff}^b$, the Z-boson partial decay widths $\Gamma_f$, where $f$ indicates any charged lepton, neutrino and quark flavor (except for the top quark), as well as the total Z decay width $\Gamma_Z$, the branching ratios $R_\ell$, $R_c$, $R_b$, and the hadronic cross section $\sigma_{\rm had}^0$. The input parameters are the masses $M_Z$, $M_H$ and $m_t$, and the couplings $\alpha_s$, $\alpha$. The scheme dependence due to the choice of $M_W$ or its alternative $G_\mu$ as a last input parameter is also discussed. Recent substantial technical progress in the calculation of Minkowskian massive higher-order Feynman integrals allows the calculation of the complete electroweak two-loop radiative corrections to all the observables mentioned. QCD contributions are included appropriately. Results are provided in terms of simple and convenient parameterization formulae whose coefficients have been determined from the full numerical multi-loop calculation. The size of the missing electroweak three-loop or QCD higher-order corrections is estimated. We briefly comment on the prospects for their calculation. Finally, direct predictions for the $Z{\bar f}f$ vector and axial-vector form-factors are given, including a discussion of separate order-by-order contributions.

description: Research has demonstrated significant cognitive and behavioral deficits after chronic cocaine abuse. The cognitive effects have proven to affect mainly memory, attention, and conceptual processing. Depression and some developmental abnormalities have been demonstrated to represent frequent associated conditions in drug-abusers. A group of 20 cocaine abusers from a drug rehabilitation center was selected. A matched normal control group was taken. Subjects received a neuropsychological evaluation, a neuropsychiatric questionnaire, and a personality test. Significant differences between control and experiment groups were observed in tests for memory and executive functions. Cocaine-abuse subjects were observed to present different personality profiles from the control group. Discussion focuses on the predisposition factors for substance abuse.

description: We present the MUSE Hubble Ultra Deep Survey, a mosaic of nine MUSE fields covering 90\% of the entire HUDF region with a 10-hour deep exposure time, plus a deeper 31-hour exposure in a single 1.15 arcmin2 field. The improved observing strategy and advanced data reduction results in datacubes with sub-arcsecond spatial resolution (0.65 arcsec at 7000 A) and accurate astrometry (0.07 arcsec rms). We compare the broadband photometric properties of the datacubes to HST photometry, finding a good agreement in zeropoint up to mAB=28 but with an increasing scatter for faint objects. We have investigated the noise properties and developed an empirical way to account for the impact of the correlation introduced by the 3D drizzle interpolation. The achieved 3 sigma emission line detection limit for a point source is 1.5 and 3.1 10-19 erg.s-1.cm-2 for the single ultra-deep datacube and the mosaic, respectively. We extracted 6288 sources using an optimal extraction scheme that takes the published HST source locations as prior. In parallel, we performed a blind search of emission line galaxies using an original method based on advanced test statistics and filter matching. The blind search results in 1251 emission line galaxy candidates in the mosaic and 306 in the ultradeep datacube, including 72 sources without HST counterparts (mAB>31). In addition 88 sources missed in the HST catalog but with clear HST counterparts were identified. This data set is the deepest spectroscopic survey ever performed. In just over 100 hours of integration time, it provides nearly an order of magnitude more spectroscopic redshifts compared to the data that has been accumulated on the UDF over the past decade. The depth and high quality of these datacubes enables new and detailed studies of the physical properties of the galaxy population and their environments over a large redshift range.

Integrability of the odd eight-vertex model with symmetric weights

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: In this paper we investigate the integrability properties of a two-state vertex model on the square lattice whose microstates at a vertex has always an odd number of incoming or outcoming arrows. This model was named odd eight-vertex model by Wu and Kunz \cite{WK} to distinguish it from the well known eight-vertex model possessing an even number of arrows orientations at each vertex. When the energy weights are invariant under arrows inversion we show that the integrable manifold of the odd eight-vertex model coincides with that of the even eight-vertex model. The form of the $\mathrm{R}$-matrix for the odd eight-vertex model is however not the same as that of the respective Lax operator. Altogether we find that these eight-vertex models give rise to a generic sheaf of $\mathrm{R}$-matrices satisfying the Yang-Baxter equations resembling intertwiner relations associated to equidimensional representations.

description: Weedy rice (Oryza spp.) is a problematic weed of cultivated rice (O. sativa) around the world. Recent studies have established multiple independent evolutionary origins of weedy rice, raising questions about the traits and genes that are essential for the evolution of this weed. Among world regions, South Asia stands out due to the heterogeneity of its weedy rice populations, which can be traced to at least three origins: two through de-domestication from distinct cultivated rice varieties, and one from local wild rice (O. rufipogon/O. nivara). Here we examine five traits considered typical of or advantageous to weedy rice in weedy, cultivated and wild rice samples from South Asia. We establish that convergence among all three weed groups occurs for easy seed shattering, red pericarp color, and compact plant architecture, suggesting that these traits are essential for weed success in the South Asian agricultural environment. A high degree of convergence for black hull color is also seen among weeds with wild ancestors and weeds evolved from the aus cultivated rice group. We also examine polymorphism in five known domestication candidate genes, and find that Rc and Bh4 are associated with weed seed pericarp color and hull color, respectively, and weedy alleles segregate in the ancestral populations, as do alleles for the seed dormancy-linked gene Sdr4. The presence of a domestication related allele at the seed shattering locus, sh4, in weedy rice populations with cultivated ancestry supports a de-domestication origin for these weedy groups, and raises questions about the reacquisition of the shattering trait in these weedy populations. Our characterization of weedy rice phenotypes in South Asia and their associated candidate genes contribute to the emerging understanding of the mechanisms by which weedy rice evolves worldwide, suggesting that standing ancestral variation is often the source of weedy traits in independently evolved groups, and highlighting the reservoir of genetic variation that is present in cultivated varieties as well as in wild rice, and its potential for phenotypic evolution.

description: Somatic inputs originating from bioregulatory processes can guide cognition and behavior. One such bodily signal, yet overlooked so far, is represented by visuo-vestibular coupling and its alteration, which in extreme cases may result in motion sickness. We argue that the inherently perturbed interoceptive state that follows can be a powerful determinant of human motivated behavior, resulting in a blunted response to appetitive stimuli and an exaggerated response to noxious ones. We therefore propose to induce visuo-vestibular mismatches to healthy subjects by means of galvanic vestibular stimulation, and test the consequences on the processing of rewards and punishments when the task involves conflict monitoring. We argue that results may shed light on embodied aspects of human decision-making. Moreover, results would provide hints about clinical populations, i.e. with addiction disorders, in which the link between interoception and sensitivity to rewards is compromised, and inhibition of distracting value information appears deficitary.

description: We extend the idea of unimodular gravity to the modified $f(R,T)$ theories. A new class of cosmological solutions, that the unimodular constraint on the metric imposes on the $f(R,T)$ theories, are studied. This extension is done in both Jordan and Einstein frames. We show that while the Lagrange multiplier (that imposes the unimodular constraint on the action) depends on the cosmic time in Jordan frame and therefore, can act as an evolving scalar field in the universe history, in the Einstein frame it acts as a cosmological constant. Then a general reconstruction method is used to realize an explicit form of the unimodular $f(R,T)$ corresponding to a given cosmological solution. By adopting a specific form of $f(R,T)$, the issue of cosmological inflation is studied in this setup. To see the observational viability of this model, a numerical analysis on the model parameter space is done in the background of Planck2015 observational data.

description: An effective hadronic lagrangian consistent with the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics and intended for applications to finite-density systems is constructed. The degrees of freedom are (valence) nucleons, pions, and the low-lying non-Goldstone bosons, which account for the intermediate-range nucleon-nucleon interactions and conveniently describe the nonvanishing expectation values of nucleon bilinears. Chiral symmetry is realized nonlinearly, with a light scalar meson included as a chiral singlet to describe the mid-range nucleon-nucleon attraction. The low-energy electromagnetic structure of the nucleon is described within the theory using vector-meson dominance, so that external form factors are not needed. The effective lagrangian is expanded in powers of the fields and their derivatives, with the terms organized using Georgi's ``naive dimensional analysis''. Results are presented for finite nuclei and nuclear matter at one-baryon-loop order, using the single-nucleon structure determined within the model. Parameters obtained from fits to nuclear properties show that naive dimensional analysis is a useful principle and that a truncation of the effective lagrangian at the first few powers of the fields and their derivatives is justified.

description: Intellectual property (IP) topics such as copyright, licensure, and fair use have become critical to today's information professional. This study proposes to explore and analyze the current state of IP education within Library and Information Science graduate programs accredited by the American Library Association (ALA). Despite the importance of IP issues to information professionals, we propose that ALA-accredited MLS/MLIS programs do not require courses focusing on IP issues. IP issues include, but are not limited to, questions of copyright, interlibrary loan procedures, and electronic database licenses. This study will help identify the extent to which IP training in U.S. ALA-accredited programs is available. Through a brief, preliminary questionnaire, e-mailed to all U.S. ALA-accredited LIS graduate programs, we will identify which schools offer courses focusing on IP issues. Follow up interviews will determine the nature of IP courses in accredited programs. The findings will be published on a website accessible by the public. Future researchers will be able to use this information to design studies that can assess the quality of the content of such courses.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Effects of Luminosity Functions Induced by Relativistic Beaming on Statistics of Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts

description: We study the effects of the beaming-induced luminosity function on statistics of observed GRBs, assuming the cosmological scenario. We select and divide the BATSE 4B data into 588 long bursts (T$_{90}>2.5$ sec) and 149 short bursts (T$_{90}<2.5$ sec), and compare the statistics calculated in each subgroup. The $$ of the long bursts is $ 0.2901\pm 0.0113$, and that of the short bursts is $0.4178\pm 0.0239$, which is a Euclidean value. For luminosity function models, we consider a cylindrical-beam and a conic-beam. We take into account the spatial distribution of GRB sources as well. A broad luminosity function is naturally produced when one introduces beaming of GRBs. We calculate the maximum detectable redshift of GRBs, $z_{\rm max}$. The estimated $z_{\rm max}$ for the cylindrical-beam case is as high as $\sim 14$ for the long bursts and $\sim 3$ for the short bursts. The large $z_{\rm max}$ value for the short bursts is rather surprising in that the $$ for this subgroup is close to the so-called Euclidean value, 0.5. We calculate the fraction of bursts whose redshifts are larger than a certain redshift $z'$, i.e. $f_{\rm > z'}$. When we take $z'=3.42$ and apply the luminosity function derived for the cylindrical-beam, the expected $f_{\rm > z'}$ is $\sim 75 %$ for long bursts. When we increase the opening angle of the conic beam to $Δθ=3^\circ.0$, $f_{\rm > z'}$ decreases to $\sim 20 %$ at $ {\rm z'=3.42}$. We conclude that the beaming-induced luminosity functions are compatible with the redshift distribution of observed GRBs and that the apparent Euclidean value of $$ may not be due to the Euclidean space distribution but to the luminosity distribution.

Indigenous refusal: Arab minority and the formation of modern state in Iran
Creators: name: Daghagheleh, Aghil
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: This research explores the understudied dynamics of ethnic mobilization and state formation in Iran, with a specific focus on Arab communities in Khuzestan, a region bordering Iraq in the southwest. This study began with a personal question: the meaning of Arabness in Iran. As a member of these communities, I was familiar with the weight of marginalization and conditions of subalternity and oppression they endure. They often grapple with not being considered authentically “Arab” in the Arab World and not fully “Iranian” within Iran's borders. My fieldwork complicated the picture even more as I observed that people often identify as indigenous and view the state as colonial. For them, Arabness is less about identity and more about embeddedness in the land. They continuously draw on the claim of coloniality to frame their refusal of the Iranian state, preserve their sense of indigeneity, and articulate their lived experiences as colonized subjects within a concealed settler-colonial condition. Existing scholarship on ethnic relations in Iran attributes the discontent among these communities to the exclusionary Persian-centric narrative of the nation and ethnic inequality, among other factors. However, constrained by the prevailing cultural paradigm, ethnic studies often fall short in fully probing the intricate facets of indigeneity, which revolve around parallel assertions of sovereignty, land rights, and indigenous autonomy—themes yet to be comprehensively explored beyond the well-known cases of settler-colonialism.Drawing on rich ethnographic material and archival research, I define indigeneity as interconnected groups of human and nonhuman entities with deep ties and connections to the ecosystem they have inhabited for generations. I demonstrate how the social life of Arab communities has emerged and (trans)formed as an aquatic assemblage through a historical symbiosis relationship and constant interactions with their surrounding environment, including rivers and marshes. The other pillar of indigeneity is refusal: the affective, embodied, and symbolic responses of indigenous communities to colonial uprooting forces that threaten their embeddedness and ties to the environment. I have built a conceptual framework that brings into conversation affect theory, indigenous studies, and ethnic relations to demonstrate how moments of indigenous struggle, suffering, and trauma become part of indigenous everyday lives, informing the diverse and prolific manifestations of refusal, including tribal politics, religious affiliation, ethnic mobilization, among others. This study contributes to our understanding of the global rise of indigeneity and provides insight into contemporary ethnic and indigenous mobilization concerning environmental setbacks, land issues, indigenous autonomy, sovereignty, and indigenous decolonial practices in Iran.

description: The study of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can be used as a model to understand neuro-biological mechanisms of behavior. Neuropharmacological and neuroanatomical studies of children with ADHD can be used to stimulate interest in these fields incorporating both clinical and basic issues. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the use of a multi-media computer application (Hyperstudio) in the presentation of complex neurobiological material using ADHD as a clinical example. The growing availability of computers and multi-media software in educational settings can enhance lectures and increase the opportunity for interactive study by students. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the design of an interactive teaching and a study program used by developmental psychobiologists. This program will incorporate an outline for lecture use in the classroom and potential questions and diagrams. These types of presentations can be developed by faculty and students and can be used in a variety of educational settings.

description: Several recent publications reflect debate on the issue of “endocrine disrupting chemicals” (EDCs), indicating that two seemingly mutually exclusive perspectives are being articulated separately and independently. Considering this, a group of scientists with expertise in basic science, medicine and risk assessment reviewed the various aspects of the debate to identify the most significant areas of dispute and to propose a path forward. We identified four areas of debate. The first is about the definitions for terms such as “endocrine disrupting chemical”, “adverse effects”, and “endocrine system”. The second is focused on elements of hormone action including “potency”, “endpoints”, “timing”, “dose” and “thresholds”. The third addresses the information needed to establish sufficient evidence of harm. Finally, the fourth focuses on the need to develop and the characteristics of transparent, systematic methods to review the EDC literature. Herein we identify areas of general consensus and propose resolutions for these four areas that would allow the field to move beyond the current and, in our opinion, ineffective debate.

Transport in polymer-gel composites: Theoretical methodology and response to an electric field
Creators: name: Hill, Reghan J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A theoretical model of electromigrative, diffusive and convectivetransport polymer-gel composites is presented. Bulk properties are derived from the standard electrokinetic model with an impenetrable charged sphere embedded in an electrolyte-saturated Brinkman medium. Because the microstructure can be carefully controlled, these materials are promising candidates for enhanced gel-electrophoresis, chemical sensing, drug delivery, and microfluidic pumping technologies. The methodology provides `exact' solutions for situations where perturbations from equilibrium are induced by gradients of electrostatic potential, concentration and pressure. While the volume fraction of the inclusions should be small, Maxwell's well-known theory of conduction suggests that the theory may also be accurate at moderate volume fractions. In this work, the model is used to compute ion fluxes, electrical current density, and convective flow induced by an applied electric field. The electric-field-induced (electro-osmotic) flow is a sensitive indicator of the inclusion zeta-potential and size, electrolyte concentration, and Darcy permeability of the gel, while the electrical conductivity increment is most often independent of the polymer gel, and is much less sensitive to particle and electrolyte characteristics.

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We present an efficient, covariant, graph-based method to integrate superfields over fermionic spaces of high dimensionality. We illustrate this method with the computation of the most general sixteen-dimensional Majorana-Weyl integral in ten dimensions. Our method has applications to the construction of higher-derivative supergravity actions as well as the computation of string and membrane vertex operator correlators.

Charge pumping induced by magnetic texture dynamics in Weyl semimetals

description: Spin-momentum locking in Weyl semimetals correlates the orbital motion of electrons with background magnetic textures. We show here that the dynamics of a magnetic texture in a magnetic Weyl semimetal induces a pumped electric current that is free from Joule heating. This pumped current can be regarded as a Hall current induced by axial electromagnetic fields equivalent to the magnetic texture. Taking a magnetic domain wall as a test case, we demonstrate that a moving domain wall generates a pumping current corresponding to the localized charge.

Let’s Burn Them All: A Librarian’s View
Creators: name: Roye Werner
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Library and Information Studies
subject: FOS: Media and communications

description: In this rejoinder to “Let’s Burn Them All,” a librarian supports the author’s case for eliminating textbooks in the teaching of management and organizational behavior. A move away from textbooks would free libraries from worrying about whether and to what extent to provide expensive textbook access to students, a long-standing dilemma. Students could be newly exposed to the rich array of resources that the library provides. Professors and librarians could work more closely together in creating collections that support classroom learning. And faculty could be inspired by and become involved in the Open Access movement, an outcome greatly desired by the academic library world
Evolutionary models for very-low-mass stars and brown dwarfs with dusty atmospheres

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: We present evolutionary calculations for very-low-mass stars and brown dwarfs based on synthetic spectra and non-grey atmosphere models which include dust formation and opacity, i.e. objects with $\te\simle 2800$ K. The interior of the most massive brown dwarfs is shown to develop a conductive core after $\sim 2$ Gyr which slows down their cooling. Comparison is made in optical and infrared color-magnitude diagrams with recent late-M and L-dwarf observations. The saturation in optical colors and the very red near-infrared colors of these objects are well explained by the onset of dust formation in the atmosphere. Comparison of the faintest presently observed L-dwarfs with these dusty evolutionary models suggests that dynamical processes such as turbulent diffusion and gravitational settling are taking place near the photosphere. As the effective temperature decreases below $\te\approx 1300-1400$ K, the colors of these objects move to very blue near-infrared colors, a consequence of the ongoing methane absorption in the infrared. We suggest the possibility ofa brown dwarf dearth in $J,H,K$ color-magnitude diagrams around this temperature.

Nature of phase transition(s) in striped phase of triangular-lattice Ising antiferromagnet
Creators: name: Korshunov, S. E.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Different scenarios of the fluctuation-induced disordering of the striped phase which is formed at low temperatures in the triangular-lattice Ising model with the antiferromagnetic interaction of nearest and next-to-nearest neighbors are analyzed and compared. The dominant mechanism of the disordering is related to the formation of a network of domain walls, which is characterized by an extensive number of zero modes and has to appear via the first-order phase transition. In principle, this first-order transition can be preceded by a continuous one, related to the spontaneous formation of double domain walls and a partial restoration of the broken symmetry, but the realization of such a scenario requires the fulfillment of rather special relations between the coupling constants.

Subjects: subject: Library and Information Studies
subject: FOS: Media and communications

description: This brief paper does not intend to provide a guide to designing an academic library, nor does it set out to provide a prescription for the creating of a learning space. There are many excellent guides to such endeavours, and readers will find much to stimulate their thinking elsewhere in this volume. Rather, it seeks to set out a view of the changing nature of the research library and the opportunities that are presented through this evolution to better support the learning needs of today's and tomorrow's students.
Insight into atmospheres of extrasolar planets through plasma processes

description: Extrasolar planets appear in a chemical diversity unseen in our own solar system. Despite their atmospheres being cold, continuous and transient plasma processes do affect these atmosphere where clouds form with great efficiency. Clouds can be very dynamic due to winds for example in highly irradiated planets like HD 189733b, and lightning may emerge. Lightning, and discharge events in general, leave spectral fingerprints, for example due to the formation of HCN. During the interaction, lightning or other flash--ionisation events also change the electromagnetic field of a coherent, high energy emission which results a characteristic damping of the initial, unperturbed (e.g. cyclotron emission) radiation beam. We summarise this as 'recipe for observers'. External ionisation by X-ray or UV e.g. from within the interstellar medium or from a white dwarf companion will introduce additional ionisation leading to the formation of a chromosphere. Signatures of plasma processes therefore allow for an alternative way to study atmospheres of extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs.

description: Although diamond photonics has driven considerable interest and useful applications, as shown in frequency generation devices and single photon emitters, fundamental studies on the third-order optical nonlinearities of diamond are still scarce, stalling the development of an integrated platform for nonlinear and quantum optics. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to those studies by measuring the spectra of two-photon absorption coefficient ($β$) and the nonlinear index of refraction (n$_2$) of diamond using femtosecond laser pulses, in a wide spectral range. These measurements show the magnitude of $β$ increasing from 0.07 to 0.23 cm/GW, as it approaches the bandgap energy, in the region from 3.18 to 4.77 eV (390 - 260 nm), whereas the n$_2$ varies from zero to 1.7E-19 m$^2$/W in the full measured range, from 0.83 - 4.77 eV (1500 - 260 nm). The experimental results are compared with theoretical models for nonlinear absorption and refraction in indirect gap semiconductors, indicating the two-photon absorption as the dominant effect in the dispersion of the third-order nonlinear susceptibility. These data, together with optical Kerr gate measurements, also provided here, are of foremost relevance to the understanding of ultrafast optical processes in diamond and its nonlinear properties.

Marketing tests and guidelines for designing marketing strategies (D5.19)
Creators: name: Clement, Jesper
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This deliverable describes the activities conducted under Task T5.8 that aimed to develop marketing strategies for locally produced packaged foods in Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda by examining consumer responses using biometric tools such as eye-tracking and emotional recording. Two studies were conducted: sensory evaluation (Study A) and packaging design assessment (Study B), with willingness to pay (WTP) as the dependent variable. Findings revealed that packaging design significantly influenced WTP, with attributes like product visibility and ingredient-focused illustrations driving higher consumer acceptance. Conversely, sensory variables like taste and texture were secondary predictors. Emotional responses showed limited impact on WTP. Overall, packaging emerged as the key determinant of consumer valuation.
