description: We observe that the {\it invariance} of neutrino mixing matrix under the simultaneous discrete transformations $ν_1, ν_2, ν_3 \to -ν_1, -ν_2, ν_3 $ and $ν_e, ν_μ, ν_τ\to -ν_e, ν_τ, ν_μ$ (neutrino "horizontal conjugation") {\it characterizes} (as a sufficient condition for it) the familiar bilarge form of neutrino mixing matrix, favored experimentally at present. Thus, the mass neutrinos $ν_1, ν_2, ν_3 $ get a new quantum number, {\it covariant} with respect to their mixings into the flavor neutrinos $ν_e, ν_μ, ν_τ$ (neutrino "horizontal parity" equal to -1, -1,1, respectively). The "horizontal parity" turns out to be embedded in a group structure consisting of some Hermitian and real $3\times 3$ matrices $μ_1, μ_2, μ_3 $ and $ϕ_1, ϕ_2, ϕ_3 $, forming pairs interconnected through neutrino mixings. They generate some discrete transformations of mass and flavor neutrinos, respectively, in such a way that the group relations $μ_1 μ_2 = μ_3 $ (cyclic) and $ϕ_1 ϕ_2 = ϕ_3 $ (cyclic) hold, while $μ_a μ_b = μ_b μ_a $ and $ϕ_a ϕ_b = ϕ_b ϕ_a $. Then, for instance, the $μ_3$ matrix may be chosen equal to the "horizontal parity".

description: The effects of air pollution on people, the environment, and the global economy are profound - and often under-recognized. Air pollution is becoming a global problem. Urban areas have dense populations and a high concentration of emission sources: vehicles, buildings, industrial activity, waste, and wastewater. Tackling air pollution is an immediate problem in developing countries, such as North Macedonia, especially in larger urban areas. This paper exploits Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) models with Long Short-Term Memory units to predict the level of PM10 particles in the near future (+3 hours), measured with sensors deployed in different locations in the city of Skopje. Historical air quality measurements data were used to train the models. In order to capture the relation of air pollution and seasonal changes in meteorological conditions, we introduced temperature and humidity data to improve the performance. The accuracy of the models is compared to PM10 concentration forecast using an Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model. The obtained results show that specific deep learning models consistently outperform the ARIMA model, particularly when combining meteorological and air pollution historical data. The benefit of the proposed models for reliable predictions of only 0.01 MSE could facilitate preemptive actions to reduce air pollution, such as temporarily shutting main polluters, or issuing warnings so the citizens can go to a safer environment and minimize exposure.

description: In movie productions, the Foley Artist is responsible for creating an overlay soundtrack that helps the movie come alive for the audience. This requires the artist to first identify the sounds that will enhance the experience for the listener thereby reinforcing the Directors's intention for a given scene. In this paper, we present AutoFoley, a fully-automated deep learning tool that can be used to synthesize a representative audio track for videos. AutoFoley can be used in the applications where there is either no corresponding audio file associated with the video or in cases where there is a need to identify critical scenarios and provide a synthesized, reinforced soundtrack. An important performance criterion of the synthesized soundtrack is to be time-synchronized with the input video, which provides for a realistic and believable portrayal of the synthesized sound. Unlike existing sound prediction and generation architectures, our algorithm is capable of precise recognition of actions as well as inter-frame relations in fast moving video clips by incorporating an interpolation technique and Temporal Relationship Networks (TRN). We employ a robust multi-scale Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) associated with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for a better understanding of the intricate input-to-output associations over time. To evaluate AutoFoley, we create and introduce a large scale audio-video dataset containing a variety of sounds frequently used as Foley effects in movies. Our experiments show that the synthesized sounds are realistically portrayed with accurate temporal synchronization of the associated visual inputs. Human qualitative testing of AutoFoley show over 73% of the test subjects considered the generated soundtrack as original, which is a noteworthy improvement in cross-modal research in sound synthesis.

description: We report on quantitative calculations of the upper critical field $H_{c2}$ for clean type-II superconductors Nb, NbSe$_{2}$, and MgB$_{2}$ using Fermi surfaces from {\em ab initio} electronic structure calculations. The results for Nb and NbSe$_2$ excellently reproduce both temperature and directional dependences of measured $H_{c2}$ curves without any adjustable parameters, including marked upward curvature of NbSe$_{2}$ near $T_{c}$. As for MgB$_2$, a good fit is obtained for a $π/ σ$ gap ratio of $\sim 0.3$, which is close to the value from a first-principles strong-coupling theory [H. J. Choi \textit{et al}. Nature, \textbf{418} 758 (2002)]. Our results indicate essential importance of Fermi surface anisotropy for describing $H_{c2}$.

title: Staphylococcal fibronectin-binding proteins
Creators: name: Peacock, Sharon
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2003

description: This thesis describes a series of studies examining the fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) of the pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus schleiferi. The first two results chapters explore the role of FnBPs in the interaction between S. aureus and human endothelial cells in vitro. The impetus for studying this area was the likely importance of this interaction in vivo during the process of bacterial seeding from the bloodstream to distant sites, a common accompaniment to bacteraemia and invasive disease. Having demonstrated a central role for FnBPs in adherence to, and invasion of endothelial cells, the third results chapter describes phenotypic and genotypic variation in fnb genes and the proteins they encode in a large population of ciinical S. aureus isolates. The fourth results chapter examines whether proteases, and in particular serine (V8) protease, influence S. aureus FnBP function, potentially modelling the bacterial cell surface and controlling the presence or absence of a functional adhesin. The fifth results chapter demonstrates that S. schleiferi, a coagulase-negative staphylococcus and a nosocomial pathogen, expresses a FnBP. In the final results chapter, the presence of fnbA encoding S. aureus FnBPA is compared between isolates associated with carriage and invasive disease, together with 32 other bacterial factors. The aims of this study were to identify virulence-associated genes (one of which was fnbA); to assess the cumulative effect of viruience-associated genes on virulence; and to identify gene combinations and determine if some combinations have a greater pathogenic potential than others.
title: J.L. Dussek and his role in the development of the piano repertory
Creators: name: Carroll, Mora
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2003

description: The Bohemian composer Jan Ladislav Dussek (1760-1812), was one of the most important pianist composers of his day. Although his music was popular in his life time it has subsequently received little attention. However, there were a few publishers who continued to sell his compositions and a nucleus of enthusiastic amateurs who continued to play them.

This dissertation attempts to set out the main influences behind Dussek's piano style. It examines his treatment of keyboard textures, and investigates his composing techniques where he introduces widely spaced accompaniment patterns, melodic figurations, extensive doubling and technical difficulties , culminating in his famous Plus Ultra piano sonata.

 Dussek, like many of his contemporaries, wrote the music for his own keyboard performance. His arrival in London, when the English piano was at the threshhold of new improvements, was a fortuitous step in his career as a composer and performer. It was at this period in 1789 that his association with the piano manufacturer John Broadwood began and when, at Dussek's suggestion, the keyboard compass was initially extended from 5 to 5 1/2 octaves. The extra notes in the treble were known as the Additional Keys, they became a significant element in Dussek's elaborate figurations, which he developed in his piano concertos, and to a lesser extent in his piano sonatas and chamber works from 1793 onwards.

 The main objective of this dissertation is to bring together and discuss the new features introduced by Dussek into his works. The realizatio n of this objective, in turn, will be of value for the following reasons. First, a clearer picture of his contribution to piano style will emerge. Second, an assessment of his compositions by contemporary and posthumous critics will be shown. Finally, a better understanding of his role in the development of the piano repertory will be reached.

description: The superconducting transition in the layered organic compound α-(BEDT-TTF)_2KHg(SCN)_4 has been studied in the two hydrostatic pressure regimes where a charge-density wave is either present or completely suppressed. Within the charge-density-wave state the experimental results reveal a network of weakly coupled superconducting regions. This is especially seen in a strong enhancement of the measured critical field and the corresponding positive curvature of its temperature dependence. Further, it is shown that on lowering the pressure into the density-wave state traces of a superconducting phase already start to appear at a much higher temperature.

Who trusts? ethnicity, integration, and attitudes toward elected officials in urban Nigeria

description: In the developing world, politicians often use public office to redistribute resources to their core constituencies. This form of clientelistic exchange motivates ethnic voting in Africa and may also shape broader attitudes toward the state. But does clientelism retain its power as cross-ethnic contact increases, or might new forms of political linkage emerge? This article uses public opinion data from urban Nigeria to investigate how social position affects trust in elected local officials. The article finds that local ethnic minorities are less trusting of local officials, but this trust deficit does not diminish as cross-ethnic contact rises. For members of locally dominant ethnic groups, however, greater cross-ethnic contact and lessened ethnic attachment dampen expressed trust in local elected officials. The article argues that ethnic clientelism is resilient in urban contexts but that scholarship must take a more nuanced approach to assessing membership in clientelistic coalitions.

New approach to model the yield strength of body centered cubic solid solution refractory high entropy alloys
Creators: name: Shafiei, Ali
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A simple fitting approach is used for modeling the compressive yield strength of body centered cubic (bcc) solid solution high entropy alloys in Al-Hf-Nb-Mo-Ta-Ti-V-Zr system. It is proposed that the yield strength could be modeled by a polynomial where the experimental data can be used for finding the polynomial coefficients. The results show that the proposed polynomial could model the yield strength of solid solution alloys relatively well. The developed polynomial is used for predicting the strength of RHEAs in Hf-Mo-Nb-Ta-Ti-V-Zr system. It is observed that the yield strength of alloys within this system increases with the additions of Mo and Zr and decreases with the addition of Ti. Furthermore, the model predicts that the yield strength increases with increasing the value of parameters valence electron concentration (VEC) and atomic size difference (ASD). Although the developed polynomial does not consider the mechanisms involved in the strengthening of alloys, it can be considered as a straightforward method for assessing the strength of solid solution RHEAs.

description: Major solar flares are prone to occur in active-region (AR) atmospheres associated with large, complex, dynamically evolving sunspots. This points to the importance of monitoring the evolution of starspots, not only in visible but also in ultraviolet (UV) and X-rays, in understanding the origin and occurrence of stellar flares. To this end, we perform spectral irradiance analysis on different types of transiting solar ARs by using a variety of full-disk synoptic observations. The target events are an isolated sunspot, spotless plage, and emerging flux in prolonged quiet-Sun conditions selected from the past decade. We find that the visible continuum and total solar irradiance become darkened when the spot is at the central meridian, whereas it is bright near the solar limb; UV bands sensitive to the chromosphere correlate well with the variation of total unsigned magnetic flux in the photosphere; amplitudes of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray increase with the characteristic temperature, whose light curves are flat-topped due to their sensitivity to the optically thin corona; the transiting spotless plage does not show the darkening in the visible irradiance, while the emerging flux produces an asymmetry in all light curves about the central meridian. The multiwavelength Sun-as-a-star study described here indicates that the time lags between the coronal and photospheric light curves have the potential to probe the extent of coronal magnetic fields above the starspots. In addition, EUV wavelengths that are sensitive to temperatures just below 1 MK sometimes show antiphased variations, which may be used for diagnosing plasmas around starspots.

Household economic instability : constructs, measurement, and implications

description: A growing body of research demonstrates the multiple dimensions and dynamism of family income and employment. The metrics of household economic instability and their associations with household characteristics and hardship require further examination in order to compare across studies, subgroups, and historical periods. This paper empirically examines and compares commonly used measures of income and employment instability, how these measures inter-relate, vary by household characteristics, and how they predict household hardship. Using longitudinal data from the 2008 panel of the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP), and focusing on households with children, this study examined a range of descriptive measures of economic instability, including in income, earnings, public assistance benefits, and employment status, and how these measures related to each other. Results indicate that overall rates of income and employment instability were high, particularly among less-educated families, those with young children, and those who did not own a home. Economic instability, particularly decreases in employment, was associated with increased household hardship three months later. Findings also show that the source of income included in the instability measure affects the patterns identified and conclusions drawn, whereas the specific type of measure used matters less. Results highlight the instability of public assistance benefits and suggest that safety net programs must take economic instability into account when designing programs and benefits.

description: The prediction of upcoming events in industrial processes has been a long-standing research goal since it enables optimization of manufacturing parameters, planning of equipment maintenance and more importantly prediction and eventually prevention of defects. While existing approaches have accomplished substantial progress, they are mostly limited to processing of one dimensional signals or require parameter tuning to model environmental parameters. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach based on deep neural networks that simulates changes in the 3D structure of a monitored object in a batch based on previous 3D measurements. In particular, we propose an architecture based on 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (3DCNN) in order to model the geometric variations in manufacturing parameters and predict upcoming events related to sub-optimal performance. We validate our framework on a microelectronics use-case using the recently published PCB scans dataset where we simulate changes on the shape and volume of glue deposited on an Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) substrate before the attachment of integrated circuits (IC). Experimental evaluation examines the impact of different choices in the cost function during training and shows that the proposed method can be efficiently used for defect prediction.

description: Mirror matter is a dark matter candidate. In this paper, we re-examine the linear regime of density perturbation growth in a universe containing mirror dark matter. Taking adiabatic scale-invariant perturbations as the input, we confirm that the resulting processed power spectrum is richer than for the more familiar cases of cold, warm and hot dark matter. The new features include a maximum at a certain scale $λ_{max}$, collisional damping below a smaller characteristic scale $λ'_S$, with oscillatory perturbations between the two. These scales are functions of the fundamental parameters of the theory. In particular, they decrease for decreasing $x$, the ratio of the mirror plasma temperature to that of the ordinary. For $x \sim 0.2$, the scale $λ_{max}$ becomes galactic. Mirror dark matter therefore leads to bottom-up large scale structure formation, similar to conventional cold dark matter, for $x \stackrel{

description: A growing body of research demonstrates the multiple dimensions and dynamism of family income and employment. The metrics of household economic instability and their associations with household characteristics and hardship require further examination in order to compare across studies, subgroups, and historical periods. This paper empirically examines and compares commonly used measures of income and employment instability, how these measures inter-relate, vary by household characteristics, and how they predict household hardship. Using longitudinal data from the 2008 panel of the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP), and focusing on households with children, this study examined a range of descriptive measures of economic instability, including in income, earnings, public assistance benefits, and employment status, and how these measures related to each other. Results indicate that overall rates of income and employment instability were high, particularly among less-educated families, those with young children, and those who did not own a home. Economic instability, particularly decreases in employment, was associated with increased household hardship three months later. Findings also show that the source of income included in the instability measure affects the patterns identified and conclusions drawn, whereas the specific type of measure used matters less. Results highlight the instability of public assistance benefits and suggest that safety net programs must take economic instability into account when designing programs and benefits.

description: The interaction between leaders and employees plays a key role in determining organizational outcomes and performance. Although the human resources management literature posits positive effects of leadership behaviors on employee job satisfaction, the causal path between the two is unclear due to potential endogeneity issues inherent in this relationship. To address the issue, we first provide theoretical explanations about why and how transformational and transactional leadership behaviors would enhance employee job satisfaction. Second, we test the relationship between leadership behaviors and employee job satisfaction using panel data from a year-long randomized field experiment that engaged leaders and employees from hundreds of public and private organizations in Denmark. Primary findings suggest that although leadership training does not have direct effects on changes in employee job satisfaction, leadership-training-induced changes in leadership behaviors (transformational leadership and verbal rewards) are positively related to changes in job satisfaction.

description: The effect of aberrations on the aperture efficiency has not been discussed analytically, though aberrations determine the performance of a wide field-of-view system. Expansion of a wavefront error and a feed pattern into a series of the Zernike polynomials enables us to calculate the aperture efficiency. We explicitly show the aperture efficiency affected by the Seidel aberrations and derive the conditions for reducing the effects of the spherical aberration and coma. In particular, the condition for coma can reduce a pointing error. We performed Physical Optics simulations and found that, if the Strehl ratio is higher than 0.8, the derived expression provides the aperture efficiencies with a precision of < 2%.

description: Polysaccharides are among the most abundant bioresources on earth and consequently need to play a pivotal role when addressing existential scientific challenges like climate change and the shift from fossil-based to sustainable biobased materials. The Research Roadmap 2040 of the European Polysaccharide Network of Excellence (EPNOE) provides an expert's view on how future research and development strategies need to evolve to fully exploit the vast potential of polysaccharides as renewable bioresources. It is addressed to academic researchers, companies, as well as policymakers and covers five strategic areas that are of great importance in the context of polysaccharide related research: (I) Materials & Engineering, (II) Food & Nutrition, (III) Biomedical Applications, (IV) Chemistry, Biology & Physics, and (V) Skills & Education. Each section summarizes the state of research, identifies challenges that are currently faced, project achievements and developments that are expected in the upcoming 20 years, and finally provides outlines on how future research activities need to evolve.

description: Archaeological Review from Cambridge 26.1, 79-98In the autumn of 2008, the effects of the late 2000s global economic crisis suddenly and seriously impacted commercial archaeological practice in the United Kingdom. With 93 per cent of all archaeological work in the UK being developer-led, initiated through the planning process and delivered by companies competing on the open market (Aitchison 2009a), the sudden slowdown in small- and medium-scale development led to a direct reduction in the amount of archaeological work being undertaken.
Linear response theory and entropic fluctuations in repeated interaction quantum systems

description: We study Linear Response Theory and Entropic Fluctuations of finite dimensional non-equilibrium repeated interaction systems (RIS). More precisely, in a situation where the temperatures of the probes can take a finite number of different values, we prove analogs of the Green-Kubo fluctuation-dissipation formula and Onsager reciprocity relations on energy flux observables. Then we prove a Large Deviation Principle, or Fluctuation Theorem, and a Central Limit Theorem on the full counting statistics of entropy fluxes. We consider two types of non-equilibrium RIS: either the temperatures of the probes are deterministic and arrive in a cyclic way, or the temperatures of the probes are described by a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with uniform distribution over a finite set.

description: The muon energy spectra of the quasi-elastic and 1-pion production events in a LBL experiment, like K2K, are predicted to follow closely the neutrino energy spectrum, with downward shifts of the energy scale by $/2 M$ and $( + M_Δ^2 - M^2)/2 M$ respectively. These predictions seem to agree with the observed muon spectra in the K2K nearby detector. The corresponding muon spectra in the far-away (SK) detector are predicted to show characteristic spectral distortions induced by $ν_μ$ oscillation. Comparison of the predicted spectral distortions with the observed muon spectra of the 1-Ring and 2-Ring muon events in the SK detector will help to determine the oscillation parameters. The results will be applicable to other LBL experiments as well.

title: The Formation of Gender Perspectives Among Nursery Class Children
Creators: name: Woodward, David
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2003

description: Although there is ample evidence that awareness of gender is well established among older schoolchildren, there is less certainty about younger children. This study is intended to address this deficiency, principally by participant observation of young children in one primary school.

The study, which employed a type of action research, involved working with four nursery staff members, and a total of seventy-eight children (aged three to five) for the equivalent of one day a week, over a period of ten months. The principal aim of the investigation was to enquire into the elements affecting the development of children’s gender-stereotyped perspectives. This entailed noting both the verbal and non-verbal behaviour of the children and the influence of external factors, including the media, home background and peers. The study endeavoured to investigate and elucidate gender attitudes, from the children’s point of view, while observing their interactions from their own standpoints. Additionally, conversations with parents provided other relevant information.

The researcher and the nursery staff employed a range of strategies, especially adult-child discussions, initially to elicit, and later to endeavour to change, the attitudes of the children. Not all the interventions succeeded, but some did seem to have an effect, with both boys and girls exhibiting some sympathy with the attitudes displayed by the other sex. The study indicates that collaborative procedures can result in children achieving improved scholastic attainment, and self-assurance, while giving staff a better understanding of the children’s own perspectives.
