description: This study explores the user experience (UX) of virtual reality (VR) cloud gaming under simulated network degradation conditions. Two contrasting games (Beat Saber, Cubism) were streamed via Meta Air Link to a Quest 3 device in a laboratory setup. Packet loss and delay were introduced into the streaming network using NetEm for WiFi traffic manipulation. In a within-subjects experiment, 16 participants played both games under three network conditions (Loss, Delay, Baseline), followed by post-game questionnaires assessing their emotions, perceived quality, game experience, sense of presence, and cybersickness. Friedman's test and Dunn's post-hoc test for pairwise comparisons revealed that packet loss had a greater impact on UX than delay across almost all evaluated aspects. Notably, packet loss in Beat Saber led to a significant increase in cybersickness, whereas in Cubism, players experienced a significant reduction in their sense of presence. Additionally, both games exhibited statistically significant variations between conditions in most game experience dimensions, perceived quality, and emotional responses. This study highlights the critical role of network stability in VR cloud gaming, particularly in minimizing packet loss. The different dynamics between the games suggest the possibility of genre-specific optimization and novel game design considerations for VR cloud games.

description: The giant-atom topological-waveguide-QED systems have recently emerged as a promising platform for manipulating light-matter interactions. The combination of the multiple-point couplings and topological phase effect could lead to rich physical phenomena and effects. Here, we study single-photon scattering in a Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) waveguide coupled to either one or two two-level giant atoms. We assume that each giant atom is coupled to the waveguide via two coupling points and hence there exist four and sixteen coupling configurations for the single-giant-atom case and two-giant-atom separate coupling case, respectively. By solving the single-photon scattering problem in the real space, we obtain the exact expressions of the single-photon scattering amplitudes. It is found that a single photon in the SSH waveguide can be completely reflected or transmitted by choosing proper coupling configurations, coupling-point distances, atomic resonance frequency, and dimerization parameter. In addition, under proper parameter conditions, the scattering spectra are periodically modulated by the coupling-point distances. We also find that the collective behavior of the two giant atoms can be adjusted by quantum interference effect and topological effect and that the single-photon scattering spectra can exhibit the Lorentzian, super-Gaussian, electromagnetically induced transparencylike, and asymmetric Fano line shapes for some coupling configurations. This work will inspire the development of controllable single-photon devices based on the giant-atom topological-waveguide-QED systems.

description: This paper won the JEQ Best Paper Award 2019. Concentration and flow data for 1998 to 2009 were used to calculate catchment load and yields of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) species, suspended sediment, and Escherichia coli at 728 water quality monitoring sites. On average, the yields of all contaminants increased with increasing stream order in catchments dominated by agriculture. Loads from low-order small streams exempt from potential fencing regulations accounted for an average of 77% of the national load (varying from 73% for total N to 84% for dissolved reactive P). This means that to substantially reduce contaminant losses, other mitigations should be investigated in small streams.

description: The fragile-to-strong glass transition is a fascinating phenomenon that still presents many theoretical and experimental challenges. A major one is how to tune the fragility of a glass-forming liquid. Here, we study a two-dimensional (2D) system composed of vortices in a superconducting film, which effectively behaves as a 2D glass-forming liquid. We show that the kinetic fragility in this system can be experimentally varied by tuning a single parameter: the external magnetic field $H$ applied transversely to the film. This conclusion is supported by the direct comparison between the analysis of experimental measurements in an amorphous MoGe superconducting film and Monte Carlo simulations in a disordered XY model, that captures the universality class of the two-step melting transition. We show that by increasing disorder strength a fragile-to-strong transition is induced, in close similarity with the experimental findings in a magnetic field. Our numerical results shed light on the evolution of the dynamical heterogeneity from a fragile to strong glass, as due to the subtle interplay between caging effects arising from hexatic order and strong random pinning.

description: Understanding the effects of hydrogeological factors on loss, transport and fate of farm nutrients is essential for predicting their impacts on ecosystem health of receiving waters. We assessed the potential of groundwater to attenuate nitrate through denitrification, and the distribution of this potential across the Tararua Groundwater Management Zone (GWMZ) in the Manawatu River catchment, NZ. We combined a number of methods in an unprecedented manner to confirm findings and obtain supporting evidence. Our results showed that denitrification characteristics of groundwater varied considerably in the Tararua GWMZ, influenced by soil texture, drainage class, and the aquifer material or rock type, and found high denitrification potential in groundwaters in the Upper Manawatu sub-catchment. Intensive farming over well-drained soils and rocks showed high nitrate concentration in groundwater. Nutrient management should target areas with low subsurface denitrification potential.

description: In this paper I would like to show how the Deformed Special Relativity family of models - developed to approach spacetime quantization - can actually be applied to the description of classical cosmology. I use the bicrossproduct basis of $κ$-Poincaré algebra to describe photon propagation in deSitter classical General Relativity. I show the Hopf algebraic aspects of deSitter model, and give an explicit physical interpretation of $κ$-Poincaré Hopf algebraic features in spacetime. Such an approach allows to unravel some not yet known General Relativistic relations of deSitter cosmology, and reinterpret many features of Quantum Gravity phenomenology as classical properties of maximally symmetric spacetime models. In the last section of the paper I give a first example on how to apply this mathematical framework to more realistic (non maximally symmetric) spacetime models, such as $Λ\text{CDM}$ and matter-dominated universe.

Water quality issues facing dairy farming: potential natural and built attenuation of nitrate losses in sensitive agricultural catchments

description: We developed a conceptual catchment-scale modelling analysis assessing potential natural and built attenuation of nitrate losses from dairy farming in the Tararua and Rangitikei catchments (located in the lower part of the North Island, New Zealand). This exploratory analysis suggests that a reduction of greater than 25% in the river nitrate loads from dairy-farming areas could potentially be achieved by spatially aligning dairy land with areas of high subsurface nitrate-attenuation capacity, and by managing critical flow pathways using innovative edge-of-field technologies such as controlled drainage, drainage-water harvesting for supplemental irrigation, woodchip bioreactors, and constructed wetlands in the study catchments.

description: Artificial intelligence models encounter significant challenges due to their black-box nature, particularly in safety-critical domains such as healthcare, finance, and autonomous vehicles. Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) addresses these challenges by providing explanations for how these models make decisions and predictions, ensuring transparency, accountability, and fairness. Existing studies have examined the fundamental concepts of XAI, its general principles, and the scope of XAI techniques. However, there remains a gap in the literature as there are no comprehensive reviews that delve into the detailed mathematical representations, design methodologies of XAI models, and other associated aspects. This paper provides a comprehensive literature review encompassing common terminologies and definitions, the need for XAI, beneficiaries of XAI, a taxonomy of XAI methods, and the application of XAI methods in different application areas. The survey is aimed at XAI researchers, XAI practitioners, AI model developers, and XAI beneficiaries who are interested in enhancing the trustworthiness, transparency, accountability, and fairness of their AI models.

description: CROWN CARNIVORA (69)   Node Calibrated. Common ancestor of Caniformia (dogs, bears, raccoons, seals) and Feliformia (cats, mongooses, hyaenas), excluding stem carnivoramorphans sensu Wesley Hunt and Flynn (2005).
 Fossil Taxon and Specimen. Hesperocyon gregarius (SMNH P1899.6; Bryant, 1992) from the Cypress Hills Formation, Duchesnian NALMA, Lac Pelletier local fauna, Saskatchewan.
 Phylogenetic Justification. Phylogenetic analysis shows that Hesperocyon is closely related to Canidae, based on its possession of a fully ossified auditory bulla composed mainly of the caudal entotympanic, with contributions from the ecotympanic and rostral entotympanic, and the caudla entotympanic forms a partial septum within the middle-ear cavity (Wesley-Hunt and Flynn, 2005).
 Minimum Age. 37.3 Ma
 Soft Maximum Age. 66 Ma
 Age Justification. The oldest caniforms are amphicyonids such as Daphoenus and canids such as Hesperocyon, known from the earliest Duchesnean NALMA, which corresponds to magnetochron 18N and is dated as 39.74 Ma ± 0.07 Myr, based on radiometric dating of the LaPoint Tuff (Robinson et al., 2004). This correlates to the Bartonian stage with a minimum limit of 37.8 ± 0.5 Ma (Gradstein et al., 2012), thus providing a minimum constraint of 37.3 Ma.
The soft maximum constraint is based on the occurrence of the oldest stem-carnivorans (miacids, viverravids) in the early Paleocene (Fox et al., 2010), so 66.04 Ma ± 0.4 Myr = 66 Ma.
 Discussion. Daphoenus is also known from the Duchesnian (Bryant, 1992); both genera are reconstructed by Wesley Hunt and Flynn (2005) as basal caniformes. The oldest stem carnivorans are viverravids (not to be confused with extant, feliform viverrids) and paraphyletic "miacids", known from the early Paleocene onwards. Both groups have been reconstructed outside crown Carnivora (Wesley-Hunt and Flynn, 2005) and cannot provide a minimum date for the dog-cat split. Tapocyon may be an even older caniform; it comes from the Middle Eocene, Uintan, dated as 46-43 Ma, although Wesley-Hunt and Flynn (2005) place this taxon outside crown Carnivora. The oldest feliforms may be the nimravids, also known first from the White River carnivore fauna of the Chadronian NALMA, with uncertain records extending to the base of that unit (Hunt, 2004).

description: Soil conservation over large areas is expensive and needs to be targeted to obtain maximum benefit for the least cost. In this paper, an event-based model of soil erosion and sediment transport is outlined in the context of the Manawatū catchment in New Zealand for which all the major tributaries are monitored for water and sediment discharge. Tests demonstrate that the model is robust.

description: High-harmonic generation from solids can be utilized as probe of ultrafast dynamics, but thus far only over extended sample areas, since its spatial resolution is diffraction-limited. Here we propose spatial polarization gating, that is using a spatially varying ellipticity of a driving laser pulse to reduce the spatial profile of high-harmonic emission below the diffraction limit and hence increase spatial resolution. We show experimentally and by numerical simulations that our method is generally applicable as suppressing high harmonics in elliptical fields is a common response in all solids. We also briefly explore the possibility of applying this technique to widefield imaging, specifically to nonlinear structured illumination microscopy. Our findings indicate that spatial polarization gating can enable all-optical femto-to-attosecond label-free imaging beyond the Abbe limit.

description: Quantum key distribution (QKD) can secure cryptographic communication between two distant users, as guaranteed by the laws of quantum mechanics rather than computational assumptions. The twin-field scheme, which employs counter-propagated weak coherent light pulses, doubles the secure distance of standard QKD without using quantum repeaters. Here, we study a method to extend the twin-field key distribution protocol to a scheme for multi-party quantum key agreement. We study our protocol's security using a minimum error discrimination analysis and derive the asymptotic key rate based on the entanglement-based source-replacement scheme. We also simulate it on the ANSYS Interconnect platform with optical components to study the protocol's performance in certain practical situations.

description: We study a variety of finite quasiperiodic configurations with magnetodielectric $δ$-function plates created from simple substitution rules. While previous studies for $N$ bodies involved interactions mediated by a scalar field, we extended our analysis of Green's function and corresponding Casimir energy to the electromagnetic field using plates with magnetic and dielectric properties for handling finite-size quasiperiodic lattices. The Casimir energy is computed for a class of quasiperiodic structures built from $N$ purely conducting or permeable $δ$-plates. The Casimir energy of this quasiperiodic sequence of plates turns out to be either positive or negative, indicating that the pressure from the quantum vacuum tends to cause the stack of plates to expand or contract depending on their arrangement. We also handle the transverse electric and transverse magnetic mode Green's functions for $δ$-plates and derive the Faddeev-like equation with the transition matrix for $N$ purely conducting or permeable plates.

description: Reducing soil erosion and sediment delivery into rivers is a major aim for land management in New Zealand. Therefore, it is important to identify areas of sediment generation and their relationship to in-stream suspended sediment concentrations and water quality attributes. It is possible to infer and assess sediment sources and dynamics using storm event suspended sediment concentration-discharge hysteresis shape and loop direction. Research in small catchments has achieved some success; however, research in larger (>103 km2) catchments has shown the inherent difficulty of interpreting hysteresis patterns at larger scales. In this paper, we use a nested, long-term suspended sediment monitoring program across a large catchment (3,903 km2: Manawatū in New Zealand) to address these challenges.

description: Soil conservation not only conserves soil but it improves the water clarity of water in rivers. This improvement may be estimated by the methods shown in this paper. The approach is demonstrated on the Wairua River in Northland, New Zealand. For this river we show that visual clarity would increase relatively by approximately 1.4 times the relative reduction of sediment load. Median visual clarity would increase from 0.75m to 1.25m (making the river more often suitable for swimming) after a sediment load reduction of 50% associated with widespread soil conservation on pastoral land.

description: Materials that possess a porous and defected structure can have a range of useful properties that are sought after, which include their tolerance to nuclear radiation, ability to efficiently store and release isotopes, to immobilize nuclear waste, and to exhibit phase stability even at elevated temperatures. Since nanoscale pores and surface structures can serve as sinks for radiation-induced amorphization, one dimensional (1D) porous nanorods due to their high surface-to-volume ratio have the potential for use as advanced materials in nuclear science applications. In this study, we demonstrate a synthesis and a detailed analysis of microporous 1D octahedral molecular sieves of disodium diniobate hydrate (Na2Nb2O6 H2O) or Sandia Octahedral Molecular Sieves (SOMS). In addition, the stability of these SOMS is evaluated following their exposure to elevated temperatures and neutron irradiation. A surfactant-assisted solvothermal method is used to prepare these SOMS-based nanorods. This relatively low temperature, solution-phase approach can form crystalline nanorods of microporous Na2Nb2O6 H2O. These 1D structures had an average diameter of approximately 50 nm and lengths greater than 1 micrometer. The nanorods adopted a defected microporous phase, which also exhibited a resistance to radiation induced amorphization. The dimensions, phase, and crystallinity of the SOMS-based nanorods after exposure to a high incident flux of neutrons were comparable to those of the as-synthesized products. The radiation tolerance of these microporous SOMS could be useful in the design of materials for nuclear reactors, resilient nuclear fuels, thermally resilient materials, high temperature catalysts, and durable materials for the handling and storage of radioactive waste.

 Fossil Taxon and Specimen. Eotheroides aegypticum cranial endocast BMNH 46722 from the Mokattam Formation of the Mokattam Hills, Egypt (Sickenberg 1934; Domning et al., 2010).
 Phylogenetic Justification. Eotherioides is identified by Domning et al. (2010) and Gheerbrant et al. (2005) as more closely related to Dugong than to Trichechus, and the associated specimens of skulls and postcranial remains show apomorphies of Dugongidae, including an upper dental formula of 3.1.5.3, and the deciduous P5 is not replaced (Domning et al., 2010). It is therefore nested within crown Sirenia.
 Minimum Age. 47.6 Ma
 Soft Maximum Age. 66 Ma
 Age Justification. Sirenian remains, referrable to "halitheriine" dugonids from the Mokattam Hills in Egypt, have been interpreted as Lutetian, or middle Eocene (Domning et al., 2010; Sickenberg, 1934) with a minimum bound of 47.8 - 0.2 Ma. Paleogene strata have yielded abundant sirenian remains, including stem taxa, for much of the Eocene (Domning et al., 2010). Tethythere (i.e., Sirenia- Proboscidea) remains are known from the Paleocene and early Eocene (Gheerbrant, 2009), but lack crown Sirenia. Hence, we define the paleontological soft maximum constraint as the base of the Paleocene, equivalent to the base of the Danian marine stage at 66.04 Ma ± 0.4 Myr = 66 Ma.
 Discussion. Eosiren is another taxon from the Lutetian of Egypt that is identified by Domning et al. (2010) and Gheerbrant et al. (2005) as more closely related to Dugong than to Trichechus and as such is also a member of crown Sirenia. Both Eotheroides and Eosiren are now known by cranial and postcranial elements, and traditionally placed in the (probably) paraphyletic subfamily Halitheriinae.

description: Recent advancements in deep learning have led to widespread use of techniques for audio content generation, notably employing Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM) across various tasks. Among these, Foley Sound Synthesis is of particular interest for its role in applications for the creation of multimedia content. Given the temporal-dependent nature of sound, it is crucial to design generative models that can effectively handle the sequential modeling of audio samples. Selective State Space Models (SSMs) have recently been proposed as a valid alternative to previously proposed techniques, demonstrating competitive performance with lower computational complexity. In this paper, we introduce MambaFoley, a diffusion-based model that, to the best of our knowledge, is the first to leverage the recently proposed SSM known as Mamba for the Foley sound generation task. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we compare it with a state-of-the-art Foley sound generative model using both objective and subjective analyses.

description: We sampled sediments in an agricultural catchment in Reporoa, New Zealand, before and after a scouring flood event. The tributary was chosen for its low slope and predominantly single land use (intensive dairying). This work suggests that despite changes in sediment composition due to flood events, EPC0 is a useful reflection of daytime baseflow-DRP concentrations at sites along a stream network. These data also inform our understanding of the influence of sediment on delaying farm and catchment efforts to decrease in-stream DRP concentrations.

description: Large language models (LLMs) are being increasingly integrated into everyday products and services, such as coding tools and writing assistants. As these embedded AI applications are deployed globally, there is a growing concern that the AI models underlying these applications prioritize Western values. This paper investigates what happens when a Western-centric AI model provides writing suggestions to users from a different cultural background. We conducted a cross-cultural controlled experiment with 118 participants from India and the United States who completed culturally grounded writing tasks with and without AI suggestions. Our analysis reveals that AI provided greater efficiency gains for Americans compared to Indians. Moreover, AI suggestions led Indian participants to adopt Western writing styles, altering not just what is written but also how it is written. These findings show that Western-centric AI models homogenize writing toward Western norms, diminishing nuances that differentiate cultural expression.

description: CROWN ARTIODACTYLA, INCLUDING CETACEA (70)   Node Calibrated. Common ancestor of ruminants and "Suiformes", including the now well-established hippo-whale clade (Gatesy et al., 2002; Geisler and Theodor, 2009).
 Fossil Taxon and Specimen. Himalayacetus subathuensis, Roorkee University Vertebrate Paleontology Laboratory (RUSB) specimen 2003, from early Eocene deposits of the Subathu Formation type section in Kuthar Nala, India (Bajpai and Gingerich, 1998).
 Phylogenetic Justification. Himalayacetus is known only from a partial dentary and two molars, but it was claimed that these show characterisics of Pakicetidae (Bajpaj and Gingerich, 1998). The phylogenetic placement within Cetacea is controversial, and a conservative phylogenetic analysis (O’Leary and Uhen, 1999) confirmed that Himalayacetus might be more closely related to ambulocetids than to pakicetids. Either way, Himalayacetus is a member of total-group Cetacea, and nested well within crown Artiodactyla, as currently understood.
 Minimum Age. 52.4 Ma
 Soft Maximum Age. 66 Ma
 Age Justification. The cow-pig division is dated minimally by the record of Himalayacetus from the base of the Subathu Formation in Pakistan (Bajpai and Gingerich, 1998) where it co-occurs with Nummulites atacicus whose range correlates with nannoplankton zones 11-12, providing a minimum age of 52.4 Ma (Martín-Martín et al., 2001). The availability of this marine correlation for this fossil enables us to forego use of the corresponding marine stage (Ypresian).
The absence of any crown cetartiodactyls during the Paleocene may point to a soft maximum constraint of 66.04 Ma ± 0.4Myr = 66 Ma.
 Discussion. Cetaceans comprise closer relatives to ruminant artiodactyls than do either suids or camels (Gatesy et al., 2002; Spaulding et al., 2009; Geisler and Theodor, 2009). While stem artiodactyls (e.g., Diacodexis) date to the Wasatchian NALMA (Rose, 2006), Himalaycetus is only slightly younger, and as such exceeds other crown artiodactyl lineages in age.

description: We introduce the idea of flavour transfer from a non-abelian horizontal $SU(2)_f$ flavour gauge group embedded in the Standard Model flavour structure. The new flavour vector bosons, in the mass range from the tens of GeV to multi-TeV do not induce large flavour-changing currents and meson oscillations, which usually provide the dominant constraints on this type of structure. Instead, the dominant constraints arise from "flavour-transfer" operators that we will study in details. Several explicit models are presented and their prospects are thoroughly explored, including their phenomenology in the lepton and quark sectors at colliders and lower energy experiments. We finally perform a complete numerical fit in one such scenario, showing that LHC-based lepton-flavour violating searches are competitive with intensity frontier observables.

Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: Thanks to advances in plasma science and enabling technology, mirror machines are being reconsidered for fusion power plants and as possible fusion volumetric neutron sources. However cross-field transport and turbulence in mirrors remains relatively understudied compared to toroidal devices. Turbulence and transport in mirror configurations were studied utilizing the flexible magnetic geometry of the Large Plasma Device (LAPD). Multiple mirror ratios from $ M = 1 $ to $ M = 2.68 $ and three mirror-cell lengths from $L = 3.51 $m to $ L = 10.86 $m were examined. Langmuir and magnetic probes were used to measure profiles of density, temperature, potential, and magnetic field. The fluctuation-driven $ \tilde{ E } \times B $ particle flux was calculated from these quantities. Two probe correlation techniques were used to infer wavenumbers and two-dimensional structure. Cross-field particle flux and density fluctuation power decreased with increased mirror ratio. Core density and temperatures remain similar with mirror ratio, but radial line-integrated density increased. The physical expansion of the plasma in the mirror cell by using a higher field in the source region may have led to reduced density fluctuation power through the increased gradient scale length. This increased scale length reduced the growth rate and saturation level of rotational interchange and drift-like instabilities. Despite the introduction of magnetic curvature, no evidence of mirror driven instabilities -- interchange, velocity space, or otherwise -- were observed. For curvature-induced interchange, many possible stabilization mechanisms were present, suppressing the visibility of the instability.

description: Beef production in the Lake Taupō region of New Zealand is regulated for nitrogen (N) leaching. The objectives of this study were to 1) evaluate the implications of nitrogen emission limitations on eutrophication and climate change impacts of NZ beef through its life cycle to a European market and uniquely link it to 2) estimation of the reduction in these impacts that can be funded by the consumer's willingness to pay (WTP) a premium for a low environmental-impact product. Comparison with published environmental footprint of beef from Europe showed lower climate change and eutrophication impacts for NZ beef, thus showing potential positive environmental attributes for NZ beef. The European consumer's WTP (32% price premium) for such a beef product with low environmental impacts could offset the cost to farmers for implementing the reduction of N emissions.
