description: It is often assumed that in the course of the evolution of the universe, the dark energy either vanishes or becomes a positive constant. However, recently it was shown that in many models based on supergravity, the dark energy eventually becomes negative and the universe collapses within the time comparable to the present age of the universe. We will show that this conclusion is not limited to the models based on supergravity: In many models describing the present stage of acceleration of the universe, the dark energy eventually becomes negative, which triggers the collapse of the universe within the time t = 10^10-10^11 years. The theories of this type have certain distinguishing features that can be tested by cosmological observations.

description: Of the 2652 articles considered, 106 met the inclusion criteria. Review of the included papers resulted in identification of 43 chronic diseases, which were then further classified into 10 disease categories using ICD-10. The majority of studies focused on diseases of the circulatory system (n=38) while endocrine and metabolic diseases were fewest (n=14). This was due to the structure of clinical records related to metabolic diseases, which typically contain much more structured data, compared with medical records for diseases of the circulatory system, which focus more on unstructured data and consequently have seen a stronger focus of NLP. The review has shown that there is a significant increase in the use of machine learning methods compared to rule-based approaches; however, deep learning methods remain emergent (n=3). Consequently, the majority of works focus on classification of disease phenotype with only a handful of papers addressing extraction of comorbidities from the free text or integration of clinical notes with structured data. There is a notable use of relatively simple methods, such as shallow classifiers (or combination with rule-based methods), due to the interpretability of predictions, which still represents a significant issue for more complex methods. Finally, scarcity of publicly available data may also have contributed to insufficient development of more advanced methods, such as extraction of word embeddings from clinical notes. Further efforts are still required to improve (1) progression of clinical NLP methods from extraction toward understanding; (2) recognition of relations among entities rather than entities in isolation; (3) temporal extraction to understand past, current, and future clinical events; (4) exploitation of alternative sources of clinical knowledge; and (5) availability of large-scale, de-identified clinical corpora.

description: We derive the deflection angle up to $O(m^2a)$ due to a Kerr gravitational lens with mass $m$ and specific angular momentum $a$. It is known that at the linear order in $m$ and $a$ the Kerr lens is observationally equivalent to the Schwarzschild one because of the invariance under the global translation of the center of the lens mass. We show, however, nonlinear couplings break the degeneracy so that the rotational effect becomes in principle separable for multiple images of a single source. Furthermore, it is distinguishable also for each image of an extended source and/or a point source in orbital motion. In practice, the correction at $O(m^2a)$ becomes $O(10^{-10})$ for the supermassive black hole in our galactic center. Hence, these nonlinear gravitational lensing effects are too small to detect by near-future observations.

description: As the field of higher education continues to grow with the increasing number of Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) students, AAPI women remain underrepresented in leadership positions in proportion to the potential, qualified candidate population. Researchers have studied the disparity of women in higher education leadership, but not many have studied the experiences of AAPI women and the barriers they transcend to attain leadership positions at colleges and universities. The purpose of this phenomenological qualitative study was to examine the experiences and views of AAPI women in leadership and reveal methods and strategies used to advance through higher education and thereby transform these institutions. Three research questions guided this study: (a) How do AAPI women describe their experiences in navigating leadership opportunities in higher education? (b) What are the leadership qualities AAPI women identify in themselves? and (c) What are the strategies AAPI women use to transcend barriers in higher education? Thirteen AAPI female leaders in higher education institutions across several states were interviewed for the purpose of this study. Findings indicated dispelling the Asian woman stereotype, balancing family expectations and professional goals, having strong mentors, and hard work influenced by immigrant roots are the significant components AAPI female leaders use to attain positions of influence and to transform their institutions.
Real-time measurements of a bimolecular reaction

description: A method is described for the initiation of a bimolecular reaction with a laser. This allows the time resolution of bimolecular kinetics with ultrafast laser spectroscopy. Such kinetics are described for the case of
H + CO_2 => OH + CO. The rise in OH is measured and examined via the proper intermediate-mediated kinetics -- the "biphasic" expression.  The effect of restricting the impact parameter of the hydrogen atom on the carbon dioxide is also considered.

description: Raman spectroscopy has been widely used in mineralogy and petrology for identifying mineral phases. Some recent applications of Raman spectroscopy involve measuring the residual pressure of mineral inclusions, such as quartz inclusions in garnet host, to recover the entrapment pressure condition during metamorphism. The crystallographic orientations of entrapped inclusions and host are important to know for the modelling of their elastic interaction. However, the analysis of tiny entrapped mineral inclusions using EBSD technique requires time consuming polishing. The crystallographic orientations can be measured using polarized Raman spectroscopy, as the intensities of Raman bands depend on the mutual orientation between the polarization direction of the laser and the crystallographic orientation of the crystal. In this study, the Raman polarizability tensor of quartz is first obtained and is used to fit arbitrary orientations of quartz grains. We have implemented two rotation methods: (1) sample rotation method, where the sample is rotated on a rotation stage, and (2) polarizer rotation method, where the polarization directions of the incident laser and the scattered Raman signal are parallel and can be rotated using a circular polarizer. The precision of the measured crystallographic orientation is systematically studied and is shown to be ca. 0.25 degrees using quartz wafers and quartz plates that are cut along known orientations. It is shown that the orientation of tiny mineral inclusions (ca. 2–5 μm) can be precisely determined and yield consistent results with EBSD.

description: From an operational criterion of physical reality, a quantifier of realism-based nonlocality was recently introduced for two-part quantum states. This measure has shown to capture aspects that are rather different from Bell nonlocality. Here we take a step further and introduce a tripartite realism-based nonlocality quantifier. We show that this measure reduces to genuine tripartite entanglement for a certain class of pure tripartite states and manifests itself in correlated mixed states even in the absence of quantum correlations. A case study for noisy GHZ and W states points out the existence of scenarios where the realism-based nonlocality is monogamous.

description: Solutions of gravitational equations of gauge theories of gravity in homogeneous isotropic world with massive scalar field are investigated in the case of flat cosmological models. Special attention is dedicated to general behavior of solutions on contraction stage. It is shown, that on expansion stage inflationary solutions are generic feature of the model. At the same time on contraction stage an effective equation of state is similar to the case of massless scalar field $p=ρ$ at the beginning of evolution and tends to the equation of ultrarelativistic gas $p=ρ/3$. The Hubble parameter tends to some negative value on contraction stage, depending on the mass of the scalar field. Nonsingular solutions in this model are unstable.

description: We present the analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-2016-BLG-1227. The light curve of this short-duration event appears to be a single-lens event affected by severe finite-source effects. Analysis of the light curve based on single-lens single-source (1L1S) modeling yields very small values of the event timescale, $t_{\rm E}\sim 3.5$ days, and the angular Einstein radius, $θ_{\rm E}\sim 0.009$ mas, making the lens a candidate of a free-floating planet. Close inspection reveals that the 1L1S solution leaves small residuals with amplitude $ΔI\lesssim 0.03$ mag. We find that the residuals are explained by the existence of an additional widely-separated heavier lens component, indicating that the lens is a wide-separation planetary system rather than a free-floating planet. From Bayesian analysis, it is estimated that the planet has a mass of $M_{\rm p} = 0.79^{+1.30}_{-0.39} M_{\rm J}$ and it is orbiting a low-mass host star with a mass of $M_{\rm host}=0.10^{+0.17}_{-0.05} M_\odot$ located with a projected separation of $a_\perp=3.4^{+2.1}_{-1.0}$ au. The planetary system is located in the Galactic bulge with a line-of-sight separation from the source star of $D_{\rm LS}=1.21^{+0.96}_{-0.63}$ kpc. The event shows that there are a range of deviations in the signatures of host stars for apparently isolated planetary lensing events and that it is possible to identify a host even when a deviation is subtle.

description: Some 50~years ago, physicists, and after them the entire world, started to found their time reference on atomic properties instead of motions of the Earth that have been in use since the origin. Far from being an arrival point, this decision marked the beginning of an adventure characterized by a 6 orders of magnitude improvement in the uncertainty of realization of atomic frequency and time references. Ever progressing atomic frequency standards and time references derived from them are key resources for science and for society. We will describe how the unit of time is realized with a fractional accuracy approaching $10^{-16}$ and how it is delivered to users via the elaboration of the international atomic time. We will describe the tremendous progress of optical frequency metrology over the last 20~years which led to a novel generation of optical frequency standards with fractional uncertainties of $10^{-18}$. We will describe work toward a possible redefinition of the SI second based on such standards. We will describe existing and emerging applications of atomic frequency standards in science.

description: A new action for eleven dimensional supergravity on a manifold with boundary is presented. The action is a possible low energy limit of $M$-theory. Previous problems with infinite constants in the action are overcome and a new set of boundary conditions relating the behaviour of the supergravity fields to matter fields are obtained. One effect of these boundary conditions is that matter fields generate gravitational torsion.

description: The upper main sequence stars CU Virginis is the most enigmatic object among magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) stars. It is an unusually fast rotator showing strictly periodic light variations in all regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, as well as spectroscopic and spectropolarimetric changes. At same time, it is also the first radio main-sequence pulsar. Exploiting information hidden in phase variations, we monitored the secular oscillation of the rotational period during the last 53 years. Applying own phenomenological approach, we analyzed 37\,975 individual photometric and spectroscopic measurements from 72 data sources and improved the O-C model. All the relevant observations indicate that the secular period variations can be well approximated by the fifth degree polynomial.

Quantifying dust and the ultraviolet radiation-density in the local universe
Creators: name: Rowan-Robinson, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A sample of local galaxies for which far infrared and uv fluxes are available is used to estimate the characteristic dust extinction in galaxies and to test whether standard dust properties are plausible. Assuming galaxies can be characterized by a single dust optical depth (certainly not valid for galaxies with a dominant starburst component), the infrared excess and ultraviolet colours of local galaxies are found to be consistent with normal Milky Way dust, with a mean value for E(B-V) of 0.16. A significant fraction of the dust heating is due to older, lower mass stars, and this fraction increases towards earlier galaxy types. Analysis of F_fir/F_uv versus uv colour diagrams for starburst galaxies in terms of a simple screen dust model does not support a Calzetti (1999) rather than a Milky Way extinction law, though the absence of the expected strong 2200 A feature in several galaxies with IUE spectra does show that more detailed radiative transfer models are needed, probably with non-spherical geometry. A simple treatment in which the 100/60 mu flux-ratio is used to subtract the optically thick starburst contribution to the far infrared radiation results in lower extinction estimates for the optically thin cirrus component, with a mean E(B-V) of 0.10 The uv luminosity density, corrected for dust extinction, is derived and a value for the local mean star-formation rate inferred. This is consistent with previous estimates from uv surveys and from H-alpha surveys.

description: Background: People are frequently exposed to claims about the effects of health care. To make sense of this information, the public—including consumers, journalists, and decision-makers—need to know how to question and interpret the information presented, and when to seek additional information. Objectives: To create an inventory of interactive tools that teach the public the necessary skills to become critical consumers of health information. Methods: We systematically performed web (Google) and database (Medline) searches, and solicited input from key informants to identify tools which teach the public how to interpret information about the effects of health care. We included tools that are interactive (i.e. allow for some kind of two-way transfer of information), open-access, free, and web-based or downloadable. Potentially eligible tools were screened and coded independently by 2 of the authors. Results: Of the 3,148 potential tools initially identified, 63 were interactive and web-based or downloadable, including 20 which were free and open access (1 from the Medline database search, 9 from key informants, 10 from the web search). Among these, 15 targeted medical professionals/students. Only 5 targeted the public (4 in English, 1 in Italian). Interactive elements of these tools included: multimedia presentations (e.g. narrated PowerPoint presentation, cartoon animation), quizzes (users enter answers and receive feedback), and an annotated newspaper story. Skills covered included: study design, bias, risk, where and how to search, and how to appraise research evidence. Only 1 of the tools underwent formal evaluation for effectiveness (a non-randomized, controlled study). Conclusions: Few free open-access interactive tools are available to help people become critical consumers of information about the effects of health care.

description: This paper analyzes volatility spillovers from energy to agricultural markets in the U.S. which have increased due to strong crude oil price volatility and the large growth in ethanol production in the period 2006-2011. Results suggest that spillovers from crude oil to corn and ethanol markets are similar in magnitude over time, and are particularly significant during periods of high turbulence in the crude oil market. Volatility spillovers between corn and ethanol also exist, but primarily from the corn to ethanol market. The findings provide clear evidence of the stronger linkages between corn and ethanol that have been created during the biofuel era.

description: We calculate the delay in the propagation of a light signal past a massive body that moves with speed v, under the assumption that the speed of propagation of the gravitational interaction c_g differs from that of light. Using the post-Newtonian approximation, we consider an expansion in powers of v/c beyond the leading ``Shapiro'' time delay effect, while working to first order only in Gm/c^2, and show that the altered propagation speed of the gravitational signal has no effect whatsoever on the time delay to first order in v/c beyond the leading term, although it will have an effect to second and higher order. We show that the only other possible effects of an altered speed c_g at this order arise from a modification of the parametrized post-Newtonian (PPN) coefficient α_1 of the metric from the value zero predicted by general relativity. Current solar-system measurements already provide tight bounds on such a modification. We conclude that recent measurements of the propagation of radio signals past Jupiter are sensitive to α_1, but are not directly sensitive to the speed of propagation of gravity.

Higher trading volume appears to have modestly reinforced the long-run relationship between spot and futures markets, strengthened the role of futures market in the pricing process, and led to a more rapid transmission of market information between spot and futures markets. In terms of risk transfer, the results provide little evidence that the live cattle futures contract offers effective hedging opportunities, either under low or high trading volume. The findings are consistent with previous studies in the sense that even low trading volume is enough to establish links between spot and futures markets. However, the absence of hedging opportunities when futures trading increases was somewhat surprising and raises questions for future research.

description: The $eta_L(1410)$ component of the $η(1440)$ pseudoscalar has strong affinity for glue. But its mass is incompatible with lattice simulations that predict a much higher value for the $0^{-+}$ glueball. As a consequence it has been suggested that $η_L(1410)$ could signal physics beyond the Standard Model. Here we argue that if glueballs are closed gluonic fluxtubes then $η_L(1410)$ is a prime candidate for the $0^{-+}$ glueball. Furthermore, in the absence of parity violating terms its mass should be degenerate with that of the $0^{++}$ glueball. We also suggest that the decay properties of such glueballs could be employed as probes for extra dimensions.

description: Trogellus (Mayaesalus) catrachitus Paulsen, new species.
 Type Material. Holotype male (FSCA) labeled: a) “ HONDURAS: Octoepe- / que (sic), El Portillo / 7 Oct. 1993 / R. Turnbow”; b) red paper, “ Trogellus / catrachitus [male symbol] / Paulsen, 2012 / HOLOTYPE ”.
 Description. Holotype male.  Length:  5.8 mm.  Width:  3.5 mm.  Head:  Frons flat, punctate; punctures large, separated by ¼ to 1 puncture diameter. Clypeus rounded, apex not produced. Frons not distinctly flattened. Canthus long, length approximately 2× width. Mandibles each with 1 strong internal tooth, externally lacking tooth at angulation.  Pronotum:  Lateral margin explanate in anterior view. Surface densely punctate, lacking tubercles at base of bristled punctures; punctures large.  Elytra:  Surface with blunt bristles, bristles long (as long as distance to next bristle in row).  Legs:  Protibiae quadridentate, teeth small, margin between teeth slightly concave. Mesotibia with 3 external teeth (proximal tooth smaller). Metatibia with 1 large, median tooth and 1 smaller tooth distally; apex acute.  Male genitalia:  Parameres narrow and short, 1/3 as long as median lobe; median lobe asymmetrical, cylindrical medially (not bulbous; Fig. 25, 29).
 Distribution. HONDURAS: Ocotepeque (1): El Portillo.
 Temporal Distribution. October (1).
 Diagnosis/Remarks. The species is distinguished from T. narizotus by its less produced clypeus. It is similar to T. trifinius but differs in the structure of the median lobe of the male genitalia. In T. catrachitus, the median lobe is simply cylindrical medially, and the membranous apical portion smaller and more sclerotized. Also, the protibial teeth are smaller, the frons not strongly flattened, the elytral bristles are distinctly longer, and the ocular canthus more elongate.
 Etymology. The specific epithet is a Latinized form of the term ‘ catracho’, a colloquial name for Hondurans, with the diminutive suffix -ito used in that country, resulting in ‘ catrachito ’ and meaning ‘little Honduran’. It is used as a noun in apposition, and the gender is masculine.

description: Mutations of TRPV3 lead to severe dermal hyperkeratosis in Olmsted syndrome, but whether the mutants are trafficked to the cell membrane or not is controversial. Even less is known about TRPV3 function in intestinal epithelia, although research on ruminants and pigs suggests an involvement in the uptake of NH4+. It was the purpose of this study to measure the permeability of the human homologue (hTRPV3) to NH4+, to localize hTRPV3 in human skin equivalents, and to investigate trafficking of the Olmsted mutant G573S. Immunoblotting and immunostaining verified the successful expression of hTRPV3 in HEK-293 cells and Xenopus oocytes with trafficking to the cell membrane. Human skin equivalents showed distinct staining of the apical membrane of the top layer of keratinocytes with cytosolic staining in the middle layers. Experiments with pH-sensitive microelectrodes on Xenopus oocytes demonstrated that acidification by NH4+ was significantly greater when hTRPV3 was expressed. Single-channel measurements showed larger conductances in overexpressing Xenopus oocytes than in controls. In whole-cell experiments on HEK-293 cells, both enantiomers of menthol stimulated influx of NH4+ in hTRPV3 expressing cells, but not in controls. Expression of the mutant G573S greatly reduced cell viability with partial rescue via ruthenium red. Immunofluorescence confirmed cytosolic expression, with membrane staining observed in a very small number of cells. We suggest that expression of TRPV3 by epithelia may have implications not just for Ca2+ signalling, but also for nitrogen metabolism. Models suggesting how influx of NH4+ via TRPV3 might stimulate skin cornification or intestinal NH4+ transport are discussed.

description: Let $X$ be a Nakajima quiver variety and $X'$ its $3d$-mirror. We consider the action of the Picard torus $\mathsf{K}=\mathrm{Pic}(X)\otimes \mathbb{C}^{\times}$ on $X'$. Assuming that $(X')^{\mathsf{K}}$ is finite, we propose a formula for the $\mathsf{K}$-character of the tangent spaces at the fixed points in terms of certain enumerative invariants of $X$ known as vertex functions.
The Role of Long Memory in Hedging Strategies for Canadian Commodity Futures

description: This research paper investigates whether ICE futures contracts are an effective and affordable strategy to manage price risk for Canadian commodity producers in recent periods of high price volatility. Long memory in volatility is found to be present in cash and futures prices for canola and western barley. This finding is incorporated into the hedging strategy by estimating hedge ratios using a FIAPARCH model. Findings indicate that the ICE futures contracts for canola is an effective and affordable means of reducing price risk for canola producers and should be considered as part of a price risk management strategy. On the other hand, the findings indicate that the ICE futures contract for western barley is not as effective as a means of reducing price risk for western barley producers; however, it is affordable. At the current time, western barley producers should consider alternative means of price risk management; however, the ICE futures contract should be reconsidered after modifications to contract specifications come into effect.
Self-Supervised Learning on Mobile Robots Using Acoustics, Vibration, and Visual Models to Build Rich Semantic Terrain Maps

description: Humans and robots would bene fit from having rich semantic maps of the terrain in which they operate. Mobile robots equipped with sensors and perception software could build such maps as they navigate through a new environment.
This information could then be used by humans or robots for better localization and path planning, as well as a variety of other tasks. However, it is hard to build good semantic maps without a great deal of human eff ort and robot time. Others have addressed this problem, but they do not provide
a high level of semantic richness, and in some cases their approaches require extensive human data labeling and robot driving time. We use a combination of better sensors and features, both proprioceptive and exteroceptive, and self-supervised learning to solve this problem. We enhance
proprioception by exploring the use of new sensing modalities such as sound and vibration, and in turn we increase the number and variety of terrain types that can be estimated. We build a supervised proprioceptive multiclass model that predicts seven terrain classes. The proprioceptive predictions are then used as labels to train a self-supervised exteroceptive model from camera
data. This exteroceptive model can then estimate those same terrain types more reliably in new environments. The exteroceptive semantic terrain predictions are spatially registered into a larger map of the surrounding environment.
3d point clouds from rolling/tilting ladar are used to register the proprioceptive and exteroceptive data, as well as to register the resulting exteroceptive predictions
into the larger map. Our claim is that self-supervised learning makes the exteroception more reliable since it can be automatically retrained for new locations without human supervision. We conducted experiments to support this claim by collecting data sets from diff erent geographical environments and then comparing classification accuracies. Our results show that our self-supervised learning approach is able to outperform state of the art supervised visual learning techniques.

description: Our knowledge of the populations and occurrence rates of planets orbiting evolved intermediate-mass stars lags behind that for solar-type stars by at least a decade. Some radial velocity surveys have targeted these low-luminosity giant stars, providing some insights into the properties of their planetary systems. Here we present the final data release of the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a 5-year radial velocity survey using the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope. We present 1293 precise radial velocity measurements for 129 stars, and highlight six potential substellar-mass companions which require additional observations to confirm. Correcting for the substantial incompleteness in the sample, we estimate the occurrence rate of giant planets orbiting low-luminosity giant stars to be approximately 7.8$^{+9.1}_{-3.3}$\%. This result is consistent with the frequency of such planets found to orbit main-sequence A-type stars, from which the PPPS stars have evolved.

description: In this final report of the IMRR WG, we present the results of our successful piloting of a registry federation for materials science data discovery. In particular, we lay out a blueprint for creating such a federation that is capable of amassing a global view of all available materials science data, and we enumerate the requirements on the standards that make the registries interoperable within the federation. These standards include a protocol for exchanging resource descriptions and a standard metadata schema for encoding those descriptions. We summarize how we leveraged the existing Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) for metadata exchange and Extensible Markup Language (XML) to define our schema, incorporating both generic and materials science-specific metadata. The domain-specific metadata is based on a modest but general Materials Science Vocabulary. We outline an approach to schema definition based on extensions that enable the schema to evolve over time in a tractable way. Finally, we review the registry software developed to realize the federation and describe the user experience.

description: Trader direct access to the order matching systems on United States and foreign commodity futures markets reduces or eliminates the cost of changing trading venues. The Dodd-Frank Act recognizes that price discovery could now more readily shift to foreign futures markets if futures market regulations in the United States were more stringent than those for foreign futures markets. Price discovery is the incorporation of market fundamentals into price. It is done by traders that make trades based on informed judgments about market fundamentals The Act does not provide guidance on how to measure price discovery. We examine the use of the Gonzalo- Granger Decomposition to measure the relative soybean price discovery contribution of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and the Brazilian Mercantile and Futures Exchange. Daily opening and closing soybeans prices from the two exchanges are used in the examination. We provide evidence that there is exchange of soybean price fundamentals between the two exchanges after the beginning of direct trader access between the two exchanges. Simultaneous soybean transaction prices are required for making reliable estimates of the relative contribution of each futures exchange to soybean price discovery.
