A Grouser Spacing Equation for Determining Appropriate Geometry of Planetary Rover Wheels

description: Grousers, sometimes called lugs, are recognized as a way to improve wheel performance and traction, but there have been, to date, no comprehensive guidelines for choosing grouser patterns. This work presents a quantitative expression for determining appropriate grouser spacing for rigid wheels. Past empirical studies have shown that increasing grouser height and number can improve performance, to a point. The newly proposed grouser spacing equation is based on observations that wheels with an inadequate number of grousers induce forward soil flow ahead of the wheel, and thus rolling resistance. The equation relates geometric wheel parameters (wheel radius, grouser height and spacing) and operating parameters (slip and sinkage), and predicts a maximum allowable grouser spacing (or, equivalently, a minimum number of grousers). Experiments with various grouser heights and numbers demonstrate good correspondence to the proposed equation, as increases in number of grousers beyond the predicted minimum number stop improving performance. A grouser spacing equation is particularly useful for designing efficient wheels. The proposed relation includes slip and sinkage, parameters that cannot be assumed constant or known a priori, but this work shows that wheels designed using the proposed equation are robust to changing operating scenarios even if they degrade beyond estimated nominal conditions.
The Formation and Fragmentation of Primordial Molecular Clouds

description: Many questions in physical cosmology regarding the thermal history of the intergalactic medium, chemical enrichment, reionization, etc. are thought to be intimately related to the nature and evolution of pregalactic structure. In particular the efficiency of primordial star formation and the primordial IMF are of special interest. We present results from high resolution three--dimensional adaptive mesh refinement simulations that follow the collapse of primordial molecular clouds and their subsequent fragmentation within a cosmologically representative volume. Comoving scales from 128 kpc down to 1 pc are followed accurately. Dark matter dynamics, hydrodynamics and all relevant chemical and radiative processes (cooling) are followed self-consistently for a cluster normalized CDM structure formation model. Primordial molecular clouds with ~10^5 solar masses are assembled by mergers of multiple objects that have formed hydrogen molecules in the gas phase with a fractional abundance of ~10^-4. As the subclumps merge cooling lowers the temperature to ~200 Kelvin in a `cold pocket' at the center of the halo. Within this cold pocket, a quasi-hydrostatically contracting core with ~200 solar mass and number densities > 10^5 cm^-3 is found. We find that less than 1% of the primordial gas in such small scale structures cools and collapses to sufficiently high densities to be available for primordial star formation. Furthermore, it is worthwhile to note that this study achieved the highest dynamic range covered by structured adaptive mesh techniques in cosmological hydrodynamics to date.

Towards Understanding Depth Perception in Foveated Rendering

description: The true vision for real-time virtual and augmented reality is reproducing our visual reality in its entirety on immersive displays. To this end, foveated rendering leverages the limitations of spatial acuity in human peripheral vision to allocate computational resources to the fovea while reducing quality in the periphery. Such methods are often derived from studies on the spatial resolution of the human visual system and its ability to perceive blur in the periphery, enabling the potential for high spatial quality in real-time. However, the effects of blur on other visual cues that depend on luminance contrast, such as depth, remain largely unexplored. It is critical to understand this interplay, as accurate depth representation is a fundamental aspect of visual realism. In this paper, we present the first evaluation exploring the effects of foveated rendering on stereoscopic depth perception. We design a psychovisual experiment to quantitatively study the effects of peripheral blur on depth perception. Our analysis demonstrates that stereoscopic acuity remains unaffected (or even improves) by high levels of peripheral blur. Based on our studies, we derive a simple perceptual model that determines the amount of foveation that does not affect stereoacuity. Furthermore, we analyze the model in the context of common foveation practices reported in literature. The findings indicate that foveated rendering does not impact stereoscopic depth perception, and stereoacuity remains unaffected with up to 2x stronger foveation than commonly used. Finally, we conduct a validation experiment and show that our findings hold for complex natural stimuli.

description: We show that the quantum uncertainty principle puts some limits on the effectiveness of the antinucleon-nucleus annihilation at very low energies. This is caused by the fact that the realization a very effective short-distance reaction process implies information on the relative distance of the reacting particles. Some quantitative predictions are possible on this ground, including the approximate A-independence of antinucleon-nucleus annihilation rates.

A Graph Search Algorithm for Indoor Pursuit / Evasion

Subjects: subject: 80101 Adaptive Agents and Intelligent Robotics

description: Using concepts from both robotics and graph theory, we formulate the problem of indoor pursuit / evasion in terms of searching a graph for a mobile evader. We present an o­ ine, greedy, iterative algorithm which performs guaranteed search, i.e. no matter how the evader moves, it will eventually be captured; in fact our algorithm can be applied to either an adversarial (actively trying to avoid capture) or randomly moving evader. Furthermore the algorithm produces an internal search (the searchers move only along the edges of the graph, teleporting is not used) and can accommodate extended (across nodes) visibility and finite or infinite evader speed. We present search experiments for several indoor environments, some of them quite complicated, in all of which the algorithm succeeds in clearing the graph (i.e. capturing the evader).

Nowadays this data is typically volatile and disposed right after use. But this data can be valuable and useful later. Therefore we propose a database system that taps into common robot middleware to record any and all data produced at run-time. We present two examples using this data in fault analysis and performance evaluation and describe real-world experiments run on the domestic service robot HERB.

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.

Electron Acceleration and Time Variability of High Energy Emission from Blazars

description: Blazars are known to emit a broad band emission from radio to gamma-rays with rapid time variations, particularly, in X- and gamma-rays. Synchrotron radiation and inverse Compton scattering are thought to play an important role in emission and the time variations are likely related to the acceleration of nonthermal electrons. As simultaneous multiwavelength observations with continuous time spans are recently available, some characteristics of electron acceleration are possibly inferred from the spectral changes of high energy emission. In order to make such inferences, we solve the time-dependent kinetic equations of electrons and photons simultaneously using a simple model for electron acceleration. We then show how the time variations of emission are dependent on electron acceleration. We also present a simple model for a flare in X-rays and TeV gamma-rays by temporarily changing the acceleration timescale. Our model will be used, in future, to analyze observed data in detail to obtain information on electron acceleration in blazars.

description: We present a statistical study of the relative orientation in the plane of the sky between interstellar magnetic fields and filaments hosting cold clumps. For the first time, we consider both the density of the environment and the density contrast between the filaments and their environment. Moreover, we geometrically distinguish between the clumps and the remaining portions of the filaments. We infer the magnetic field orientations in the filaments and in their environment from the Stokes parameters, assuming optically thin conditions. Thus, we analyze the relative orientations between filaments, embedded clumps, and internal and background magnetic fields, depending on the filament environment and evolutionary stages. We recover the previously observed trend for filaments in low column density environments to be aligned parallel to the background magnetic field; however, we find that this trend is significant only for low contrast filaments, whereas high contrast filaments tend to be randomly orientated with respect to the background magnetic field. Filaments in high column density environments do not globally show any preferential orientation, although low contrast filaments alone tend to have perpendicular relative orientation with respect to the background magnetic field. For a subsample of nearby filaments, for which volume densities can be derived, we find a clear transition in the relative orientation with increasing density, at $n_{\rm H} \sim 10^{3}~{\rm cm}^{-3}$, changing from mostly parallel to mostly perpendicular in the off-clump portions of filaments and from even to bimodal in the clumps. Our results confirm a strong interplay between interstellar magnetic fields and filaments during their formation and evolution.

description: We study the equation of state (EOS) of kaon-condensed matter including the effects of temperature and trapped neutrinos. It is found that the order of the phase transition to a kaon-condensed phase, and whether or not Gibbs' rules for phase equilibrium can be satisfied in the case of a first order transition, depend sensitively on the choice of the kaon-nucleon interaction. The main effect of finite temperature, for any value of the lepton fraction, is to mute the effects of a first order transition, so that the thermodynamics becomes similar to that of a second order transition. Above a critical temperature, found to be at least 30--60 MeV depending upon the interaction, the first order transition disappears. The phase boundaries in baryon density versus lepton number and baryon density versus temperature planes are delineated. We find that the thermal effects on the maximum gravitational mass of neutron stars are as important as the effects of trapped neutrinos, in contrast to previously studied cases in which the matter contained only nucleons or in which hyperons and/or quark matter were considered. Kaon-condensed EOSs permit the existence of metastable neutron stars, because the maximum mass of an initially hot, lepton-rich protoneutron star is greater than that of a cold, deleptonized neutron star. The large thermal effects imply that a metastable protoneutron star's collapse to a black hole could occur much later than in previously studied cases that allow metastable configurations.

Determination of cosmic-ray primary mass on an event-by-event basis using radio detection

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: We present a new methodology to discriminate between light and heavy ultra-high energy cosmic-ray primaries on an event-by-event basis using information from the radio detection of extensive air showers at MHz frequencies. Similarly to other methods to determine primary cosmic ray composition, the one presented here is based on comparisons between detected radio signals and Monte Carlo simulations for multiple primary cosmic ray compositions. Unlike other methods that first reconstruct the depth of maximum shower development $X_{\rm max}$ to relate it to the nature of the primaries, we instead infer the cosmic-ray composition directly. The method is most effective in the case of inclined showers that arrive at large zenith angles with respect to the vertical to the ground, where methods based on the determination of $X_{\rm max}$ lose accuracy. We show that a discrimination efficiency between 65% and 80% can be reached for zenith angles $θ\gtrsim 60^{\circ}$, even when typical uncertainties in radio detection are taken into account, including shower energy uncertainty. Our methodology could in principle be applied in large and sparse radio arrays, designed with the large radio footprint of inclined showers in mind, to significantly increase the statistics of ultra-high energy cosmic-ray composition studies.

description: We present the discovery and spectroscopic identification of two very high proper motion ancient white dwarf stars, found in a systematic proper motion survey. Their kinematics and apparent magnitude clearly indicate that they are halo members, while their optical spectra are almost identical to the recently identified cool Halo white dwarf WD0346+246. Canonical stellar halo models predict a white dwarf volume density of two orders of magnitude less than the approx 7*10^{-4} Solar masses per pc^{-3} inferred from this survey. With the caveat that the sample size is very small, it appears that a significant fraction, about 10%, of the local dark matter halo is in the form of very old, cool, white dwarfs.

description: Humans use a remarkable set of strategies to manipulate objects in clutter. We pick up, push, slide, and sweep with our hands and arms to rearrange clutter surrounding our primary task. But our robots treat the world like the Tower of Hanoi — moving with pick-and-place actions and fearful to interact with it with anything but rigid grasps. This produces inefficient plans and is often inapplicable with heavy, large, or otherwise ungraspable objects. We introduce a framework for planning in clutter that uses a library of actions inspired by human strategies. The action library is derived analytically from the mechanics of pushing and is provably conservative. The framework reduces the problem to one of combinatorial search, and demonstrates planning times on the order of seconds. With the extra functionality, our planner succeeds where traditional grasp planners fail, and works under high uncertainty by utilizing the funneling effect of pushing. We demonstrate our results with experiments in simulation and on HERB, a robotic platform developed at the Personal Robotics Lab at Carnegie Mellon University.

description: The continual improvement of object recognition systems has resulted in an increased demand for their application to problems which require an exact pixel-level object segmentation. In this paper, we illustrate an example of an object class recognition and segmentation system which is trained using weakly supervised training data, with the goal of examining the influence that different model choices can have on its performance. In order to achieve pixel-level labeling for rigid and deformable objects, we employ regions generated by unsupervised segmentation as the spatial support for our image features, and explore model selection issues related to their representation. Numerical results for pixel-level accuracy are presented on two challenging and varied datasets.

description: The original Kepler mission has delivered unprecedented high-quality photometry. These data have impacted numerous research fields (e.g., asteroseismology and exoplanets), and continue to be an astrophysical goldmine. Because of this, thorough investigations of the ~ 200,000 stars observed by Kepler remain of paramount importance. In this paper, we present a state-of-the-art characterization of the Kepler targets based on Gaia DR3 data. We place the stars on the color-magnitude diagram (CMD), account for the effects of interstellar extinction, and classify targets into several CMD categories (dwarfs, subgiants, red giants, photometric binaries, and others). Additionally, we report various categories of candidate binary systems spanning a range of detection methods, such as Renormalised Unit Weight Error (RUWE), radial velocity variables, Gaia non-single stars (NSS), Kepler and Gaia eclipsing binaries from the literature, among others. First and foremost, our work can assist in the selection of stellar and exoplanet host samples regarding CMD and binary populations. We further complement our catalog by quantifying the impact that astrometric differences between Gaia data releases have on CMD location, assessing the contamination in asteroseismic targets with properties at odds with Gaia, and identifying stars flagged as photometrically variable by Gaia. We make our catalog publicly available as a resource to the community when researching the stars observed by Kepler.

The soft gluon radiation effects of this reaction share many features with the Drell-Yan process, but arise at lowest order from a purely gluonic initial state. We provide an extension of the conventional soft gluon resummation formalism to include a new class of contributions which we argue to be universal, and resum these and the usual Sudakov effects to all orders. The effect of these new terms is striking: only if they are included, does the expansion of the resummed cross section to next-to-leading order reproduce the exact result to within a few percent for the full range of Higgs boson masses. We use our resummed cross section to derive next-to-next-to-leading order results, and their scale dependence. Moreover, we demonstrate the importance of including the novel contributions in the resummed Drell-Yan process.

description: We study the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group $A_Γ$ with finite defining graph $Γ$. We construct a subnormal series for $Out(A_Γ)$ such that each consecutive quotient is either finite, free-abelian, $GL(n,\mathbb{Z})$, or a Fouxe-Rabinovitch group. The last two types act respectively on a symmetric space or a deformation space of trees, so that there is a geometric way of studying each piece. As a consequence we prove that the group $Out(A_Γ)$ is type VF (it has a finite index subgroup with a finite classifying space). The main technical work is a study of relative outer automorphism groups of RAAGs and their restriction homomorphisms, refining work of Charney, Crisp, and Vogtmann. We show that the images and kernels of restriction homomorphisms are always simpler examples of relative outer automorphism groups of RAAGs. We also give generators for relative automorphism groups of RAAGs, in the style of Laurence's theorem.

description: A person practicing parkour is an incredible display of intelligent planning; he must reason carefully about his velocity and contact placement far into the future in order to locomote quickly through an environment. We seek to develop planners that will enable robotic systems to replicate this performance. An ideal planner can learn from examples and formulate feasible full-body plans to traverse a new environment. The proposed approach uses momentum equivalence to reduce the full-body system into a simplified one. Low-dimensional trajectory primitives are then composed by a sampling planner called Sampled Composition A* to produce candidate solutions that are adjusted by a trajectory optimizer and mapped to a full-body robot. Using primitives collected from a variety of sources, this technique is able to produce solutions to an assortment of simulated locomotion problems.
Bi-Laplacians on graphs and networks

description: We study the differential operator $A=\frac{d^4}{dx^4}$ acting on a connected network $\mathcal{G}$ along with $\mathcal L^2$, the square of the discrete Laplacian acting on a connected discrete graph $\mathsf{G}$. For both operators we discuss well-posedness of the associated {linear} parabolic problems \[ \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}=-Au,\qquad\frac{df}{dt}=-\mathcal L^2 f, \] on $L^p(\mathcal{G})$ or $\ell^p(\mathsf{V})$, respectively, for $1\leq p\leq\infty$. In view of the well-known lack of parabolic maximum principle for all elliptic differential operators of order $2N$ for $N>1$, our most surprising finding is that, after some transient time, the parabolic equations driven by $-A$ may display Markovian features, depending on the imposed transmission conditions in the vertices. Analogous results seem to be unknown in the case of general domains and even bounded intervals. Our analysis is based on a detailed study of bi-harmonic functions complemented by simple combinatorial arguments. We elaborate on analogous issues for the discrete bi-Laplacian; a characterization of complete graphs in terms of the Markovian property of the semigroup generated by $-\mathcal L^2$ is also presented.
Compton scattering in a unitary approach with causality constraints

description: Pion-loop corrections for Compton scattering are calculated in a novel approach based on the use of dispersion relations in a formalism obeying unitarity. The basic framework is presented, including an application to Compton scattering. In the approach the effects of the non-pole contribution arising from pion dressing are expressed in terms of (half-off-shell) form factors and the nucleon self-energy. These quantities are constructed through the application of dispersion integrals to the pole contribution of loop diagrams, the same as those included in the calculation of the amplitudes through a K-matrix formalism. The prescription of minimal substitution is used to restore gauge invariance. The resulting relativistic-covariant model combines constraints from unitarity, causality, and crossing symmetry.

description: ABSTRACT: Broader spectrum Gram-negative antibiotics are commonly utilized empirically for central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) in febrile short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients receiving home parenteral nutrition compared to those used empirically for inpatient-acquired CLABSI. This analysis reports 57 CLABSI in 22 patients with SBS admitted from the community and 78 inpatient-acquired CLABSI in 76 patients over a 5-year period. Proportional Gram-negative CLABSI was similar between the SBS and inpatient-acquired cohorts (43.8% vs42.3%, respectively, P  = 0.78). 1.8% and 10.3% (P = 0.125) of Gram-negative CLABSI were non-susceptible to ceftriaxone and 0% and 3.8% (P = 0.52) were non-susceptible to ceftazidime in the SBS and inpatient-acquired cohorts, respectively. In the SBS cohort, home ethanol lock therapy and prior culture results impacted Gramnegative pathogen distribution. Broader empiric Gram-negative coverage for CLABSI among SBS patients compared to inpatients is unnecessary. Third-generation cephalosporins represent appropriate empiric Gramnegative agents for febrile SBS patients presenting from the community to our institution.

description: Disaster response agencies often face challenges in obtaining real-time, actionable information during emergencies. Social media platforms provide vast streams of data that can be leveraged to enhance situational awareness. However, this data is plagued by issuessuch as misinformation and volume overload, making  manual analysis inefficient. This paper proposes a frame- work utilizing Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning (ML), and automated alert systems to extract, classify, and disseminate disaster-relatedinformation from social media platforms. By integrating APIs, advanced analytics, and SMS- based notifications, the framework aims to expedite decision- making processes and improve emergency response efficiency.

description: Serpentine robots offer advantages over traditional mobile robots and robot arms because they have enhanced flexibility and reachability, especially in convoluted environments. These robots are well suited to inspect large space-fairing truss structures such as the future space station and can also be used to inspect the Space Shuttle cargo bay before launch. Serpentine mechanisms offer unique capabilities on Earth to applications such as bridge inspection, search and rescue, surface coating, and minimally invasive surgery. The work described in this paper will exploit a geometric structure, termed a roadmap, to guide the motions of a serpentine robot in highly convoluted spaces. This approach offers advantages over previous work with serpentine robots because it provides a general mathematical structure that is not mechanism specific, thereby having applications to a large class of problems.
