description: In this work, we search the OGLE-IV outer Galactic bulge fields for short-period variable objects. The investigation focuses on unexplored timescales roughly below one hour in an area containing about 700 million stellar sources down to approximately I=20 mag. We concentrate mainly on Blue Large-Amplitude Pulsators (BLAPs), which represent a recently discovered enigmatic class of short-period hot subluminous stars. We find 33 BLAPs in the period range from 7.5 to 66.5 min. Thirty-one of them are new discoveries, which increases the number of known stars of this class to over one hundred. Additional eighteen objects with pulsation-like light curve shapes and periods ranging from 17.3 to 53.7 min are presented. Very likely, these are $δ$ Sct/SX Phe-type stars, but some of them could be pulsating hot subdwarfs or BLAPs. We also report on the detection of five eclipsing binary systems with orbital periods between 61.2 and 121.9 min and three mysterious variable objects with I-band amplitudes larger than 0.9 mag. A spectroscopic follow-up would help in the final classification of the variables.

description: Social media aids disaster response but suffers from noise, hindering accurate impact assessment and decision making for resilient cities, which few studies considered. To address the problem, this study proposes the first domain-specific LLM model and an integrated method for rapid earthquake impact assessment. First, a few categories are introduced to classify and filter microblogs considering their relationship to the physical and social impacts of earthquakes, and a dataset comprising 7282 earthquake-related microblogs from twenty earthquakes in different locations is developed as well. Then, with a systematic analysis of various influential factors, QuakeBERT, a domain-specific large language model (LLM), is developed and fine-tuned for accurate classification and filtering of microblogs. Meanwhile, an integrated method integrating public opinion trend analysis, sentiment analysis, and keyword-based physical impact quantification is introduced to assess both the physical and social impacts of earthquakes based on social media texts. Experiments show that data diversity and data volume dominate the performance of QuakeBERT and increase the macro average F1 score by 27%, while the best classification model QuakeBERT outperforms the CNN- or RNN-based models by improving the macro average F1 score from 60.87% to 84.33%. Finally, the proposed approach is applied to assess two earthquakes with the same magnitude and focal depth. Results show that the proposed approach can effectively enhance the impact assessment process by accurate detection of noisy microblogs, which enables effective post-disaster emergency responses to create more resilient cities.
Suppressing defection by increasing temptation: the impact of smart cooperators on a social dilemma situation

description: In a social dilemma situation, where individual and collective interests are in conflict, it sounds a reasonable assumption that the presence of super or smart players, who simultaneously punish defection and reward cooperation without allowing exploitation, could solve the basic problem. The behavior of such a multi-strategy system, however, is more subtle than it is firstly anticipated. When exploring the complete parameter space, we find that the emergence of cyclic dominance among strategies is rather common, which results in several counter-intuitive phenomena. For example, the defection level can be lowered at higher temptation, or weaker punishment provides better conditions for smart players. Our study indicates that smart cooperators can unexpectedly thrive under high temptation, emphasizing the complexity of strategic interactions. This study suggests that the principles governing these interactions can be applied to other moral behaviors, such as truth-telling and honesty, providing valuable insights for future research in multi-agent systems.

Excluded volume effects on tangentially driven active ring polymers

Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The conformational and dynamical properties of active ring polymers are studied by numerical simulations. The two-dimensionally confined polymer is modeled as a closed bead-spring chain, driven by tangential forces, put in contact with a heat bath described by the Brownian multiparticle collision dynamics. Both phantom polymers and chains comprising excluded volume interactions are considered for different bending rigidities. The size and shape are found to be dependent on persistence length, driving force, and bead mutual exclusion. The lack of excluded volume interactions is responsible for a shrinkage of active rings when increasing driving force in the flexible limit while the presence induces a moderate swelling of chains. Internal dynamics of flexible phantom active rings shows activity-enhanced diffusive behavior at large activity values while, in the case of self-avoiding active chains, it is characterized by active ballistic motion not depending on stiffness. The long-time dynamics of active rings is marked by rotational motion whose period scales as the inverse of the applied tangential force, irrespective of persistence length and beads self-exclusion.

description: We have performed a test run for laser cooling experiments with ¹²C³⁺ ion beams at an energy of 122 MeV/u at the CSRe with a pulsed laser. During this beamtime a lot of progress have been made. This was the first time we could successfully separate the ¹²C³⁺ ions and ¹⁶O⁴⁺ ions in the Schottky spectrum with the help of electron cooling. And our newly installed CPM detector worked well during the experiment. We tried to see effects from the interaction of the pulsed laser light with the stored ¹²C³⁺ ion beams, but no cooling effects could yet be observed.

Paracineta saifulae

description: Paracineta saifulae (Mereschkowsky, 1877)
(Fig. 3C, 3 D-1, 4 A, B)
Brief description: Marine, loricate suctorian with elongate, some asymmetric body, only the bottom half of which cover by stylotheca. The conical stylotheca grades into thin, long pseudostyle, which is 3–4 times the lorica length. The conical part of the stylotheca often have thickened walls, the peculiar bed for body forms as a result. Stylotheca surface crenulated with three to many transverse striations. Capitate tentacles sometimes retractile, evenly distributed at the anterior surface of body. Macronucleus spherical. There is one contractile vacuole.
Measurements (in μm, based on three individuals): Stylotheca length 20–56 (65 after Mereschkowsky 1877); stylotheca width 24–37 (up to 27 after Mereschkowsky 1877); pseudostyle length 59–269; pseudostyle diameter 3–5; body length 33–61; body width 23–26; macronucleus dimensions 11×16.
Remarks: This species was described under name Acineta saifulae by Mereschkowsky (1877) from Onega Bay of the White Sea near the Rem (Russia) on the hydroid Opercularella grigoriewi (Mereschkowsky, 1878). Curds (1987) synonymized A. saifulae with Acineta crenata Fraipont 1878, a species independently described by Fraipont (1878) on the hydroid Campanula riavolubilis (Linnaeus, 1758) from Belgian coast of the Northern Sea near Ostend. On the basis that the name Acineta saifulae was published earlier (in 1877) than the name Acineta crenata (in 1878), Dovgal (2002) concluded that the Paracineta saifulae must be considered as senior synonym.
The species was also early mentioned by Collin (1912) under name Paracineta crenata, reported from French coast of the Mediterranean Sea near Sète on hydroid Leuckartia raoctona (Fleming, 1823) and polychaete Aphrodite aculeata Linnaeus, 1761.
Paracineta saifulae was also reported in the Black Sea near Bulgarian coast and in Russian coast near Gelendzhik on artificial substrates (glass slides) (Dovgal 2013).
The ciliate Paracineta saifulae was attached on stalk (Fig. 3C) as well on zooidal dilatations (3D-1) of Triticella pedicellata. This is the first record of this species from the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean.

(Fig. 3 D-2, E; 4 C, D)
Brief description: Marine loricate peritrich ciliate. Lorica, rounded posteriorly with short external stalk, endostyle and short, broad, longitudinally striated mesostyle. There are one or two zooids in the lorica, which extending up to one third of its length beyond aperture. The pellicula of zooids conspicuously striated. Macronucleus band-like, long.
Measurements (in μm, based on two individuals): Lorica length 65–90 (65–77 after Warren & Paynter 1991); lorica width 18–27 (30 after Warren & Paynter 1991); contracted zooid length 38–37; contracted zooid width 14–17; external stalk length 4–19; external stalk diameter 2; endostyle length 5; endostyle width 5; mesostyle length 3; mesostyle width 4.
Remarks: This species was firstly described as an epibiont of the alga Ceramium sp. in the Kiel bay, the Northern Sea (Kahl 1933, 1935). It was also found on bryozoans Crisia burnea (Linnaeus, 1758) and Cribilina punctata (Hassall, 1841), the polychaete Spirorbis spirorbis (Linnaeus, 1758), and the hydrozoan Gonothyrae aloveni (Allman, 1859) (Precht 1935). Later this species was also reported by Felinska (1965) attached to algae collected near Plymouth, UK.
The Ciliate Cothurnia ceramicola was attached on stalk (Fig. 3E) as well on zooidal dilatations (Fig. 3 D-2) of Triticella pedicellata. This is the first record of this species from the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean.
