description: This paper considers how the finite dimensions of a photonic crystal placed inside a resonator or waveguide affect the law of electron beam instability. The dispersion equations describing e-beam instability in the finite photonic crystal placed inside the resonator or waveguide (a bounded photonic crystal) are obtained. Two cases are considered: the conventionally considered case, when diffraction is suppressed, and the case of direct and diffracted waves having almost equal amplitudes. The instability law is shown to be responsible for increase of increment of instability and decrease of length, at which instability develops, for the case when amplitude of diffracted wave is comparable with that of direct one, that happens in the vicinity of $π$-point of dispersion curve. Application of photonic crystals for development of THz sources at electron beam current densities available at modern accelerators is discussed.

description: The concept of a framed vertex operator algebra was studied in [DGH] (q-alg/9707008). This article is an analysis of all Virasoro frame stabilizers of the lattice VOA V for the E_8 root lattice, which is isomorphic to the E_8-level 1 affine Kac-Moody VOA V. We analyze the frame stabilizers, both as abstract groups and as subgroups of the Lie group Aut(V) = E_8(C). Each frame stabilizer is a finite group, contained in the normalizer of a 2B-pure elementary abelian 2-group in Aut(V). In particular, we prove that there are exactly five orbits for the action of Aut(V) on the set of Virasoro frames, settling an open question about V in Section 5 of [DGH]. The results about the group structure of the frame stabilizers can be stated purely in terms of modular braided tensor categories. Appendices present aspects of the theory of automorphism groups of VOAs. In particular, there is a result of general interest, on equivariant embeddings of lattices: embeddings of lattices into unimodular lattices which respect automorphism groups and definiteness.

description: Background: QRS duration (QRSd), a measure of ventricular conduction, has been associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, but its relationship with incident atrial fibrillation (AF) is poorly understood. Methods and results: This study included 15,314 participants from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study who were free of AF at baseline. QRSd was automatically measured from resting 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) at baseline. Incident AF cases were systematically ascertained using ECGs, hospital discharge diagnoses and death certificates. Multivariable adjusted Cox regression analyses were performed to investigate the relationship between QRSd and incident AF. Mean age of our population was 54 ± 6 years (55% females). During a median follow-up of 21.2 years, 2041 confirmed incident AF cases occurred. In multivariable adjusted Cox models, a 1-SD increase in QRSd was associated with a hazard ratio (HR) (95% CI) for AF of 1.05 (1.01; 1.10), p = 0.01. This relationship was significant among women (HR per 1-SD increase in QRSd (95% CI) 1.13 (1.06; 1.20), p < 0.001), but not among men (1.00 (0.95; 1.06), p = 0.97) (p for interaction 0.005). Compared to individuals with a QRSd <100 ms, the HRs for incident AF in individuals with a QRSd of 100–119 and ≥120 ms were 1.13 (1.02; 1.26) and 1.35 (1.08; 1.68), respectively (p for trend 0.002). Again, this relationship was significant among women (p for trend <0.001) but not among men (p for trend 0.23). Conclusion: In this large population-based study, QRSd was an independent predictor of incident AF among women, but not in men. Further studies are needed to better understand the underlying mechanisms.

description: Multiphase mechanical models are now commonly used to describe living tissues including tumour growth. The specific model we study here consists of two equations of mixed parabolic and hyperbolic type which extend the standard compressible porous medium equation, including cross-reaction terms. We study the incompressible limit, when the pressure becomes stiff, which generates a free boundary problem. We establish the complementarity relation and also a segregation result. Several major mathematical difficulties arise in the two species case. Firstly, the system structure makes comparison principles fail. Secondly, segregation and internal layers limit the regularity available on some quantities to BV. Thirdly, the Aronson-B{é}nilan estimates cannot be established in our context. We are lead, as it is classical, to add correction terms. This procedure requires technical manipulations based on BV estimates only valid in one space dimension. Another novelty is to establish an L1 version in place of the standard upper bound.

description: We calculate non-perturbatively the inelastic effects on the conductance through a conjugated molecular wire-metal heterojunction, including realistic electron-phonon coupling. We show that at sub-band-gap energies the current is dominated by quantum coherent transport of virtual polarons through the molecule. In this regime, the tunneling current is strongly increased relative to the case of elastic scattering. It is essential to describe the full quantum coherence of the polaron formation and transport in order to obtain correct physics. Our results are generally applicable to one-dimensional atomic or molecular wires.

description: Time reversal and spatial inversion are two key symmetries for conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductivity. Breaking inversion symmetry can lead to mixed-parity Cooper pairing and unconventional superconducting properties. Two-dimensional (2D) NbSe$_2$ has emerged as a new non-centrosymmetric superconductor with the unique out-of-plane or Ising spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Here, we report the observation of an unusual continuous paramagnetic-limited superconductor-normal metal transition in 2D NbSe$_2$. Using tunneling spectroscopy under high in-plane magnetic fields, we observe a continuous closing of the superconducting gap at the upper critical field at low temperatures, in stark contrast to the abrupt first-order transition observed in BCS thin film superconductors. The paramagnetic-limited continuous transition arises from a large spin susceptibility of the superconducting phase due to the Ising SOC. The result is further supported by self-consistent mean-field calculations based on the ab initio band structure of 2D NbSe$_2$. Our findings establish 2D NbSe$_2$ as a promising platform for exploring novel spin-dependent superconducting phenomena and device concepts, such as equal-spin Andreev reflection and topological superconductivity.

description: In this study, we examine a photonic wire waveguide embedded with an ensemble of quantum dots that directionally emits into the waveguide depending on the spin state of the ensemble. This is accomplished through the aid of the spin-orbit interaction of light. The waveguide has a two-step stair-like cross section and embeds quantum dots (QDs) only in the upper step, such that the circular polarization of emission from the spin-polarized QDs controls the direction of the radiation. We numerically verify that more than 70% of the radiation from the ensemble emitter is toward a specific direction in the waveguide. We also examine a microdisk resonator with a stair-like edge, that supports selective coupling of the QD ensemble radiation into a whispering galley mode rotating unidirectionally. Our study provides a foundation for spin-dependent optoelectronic devices.

description: D. Bailey and R. E. Crandall recently formulated a "Hypothesis A", which provides a general principle to explain the (conjectured) normality of constants like pi or log 2 and other related numbers, to base 2 or other integer bases. This paper explains the basic mechanism behind their principle as a connection between single orbits of two different discrete dynamical systems. It relates a subclass of arithmetical constants they consider to special values of G-functions, and characterizes this subclass. Finally it notes some parallels of "Hypothesis A" with Furstenberg's conjecture on invariant measures.

description: Context The homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and triglyceride (TG)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (TG/HDL-C) are insulin resistance indexes routinely used in clinical and population-based studies; however, their short-term repeatability is not well characterized. Objective To quantify the short-term repeatability of insulin resistance indexes and their analytes, consisting of fasting glucose and insulin for HOMA-IR and TG and HDL-C for TG/HDL-C. Design Prospective cohort study. Participants A total of 102 adults 68 to 88 years old without diabetes attended an initial examination and repeated examination (mean, 46 days; range, 28 to 102 days). Blood samples were collected, processed, shipped, and assayed following a standardized protocol. Main Outcome Measures Repeatability was quantified using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and within-person coefficient of variation (CV). Minimum detectable change (MDC 95) and minimum detectable difference with 95% confidence (MDD 95) were quantified. Results For HOMA-IR, insulin, and fasting glucose, the ICCs were 0.70, 0.68, and 0.70, respectively; their respective within-person CVs were 30.4%, 28.8%, and 5.6%. For TG/HDL-C, TG, and HDL-C, the ICCs were 0.80, 0.68, and 0.91, respectively; their respective within-person CVs were 23.0%, 20.6%, and 8.2%. The MDC 95 was 2.3 for HOMA-IR and 1.4 for TG/HDL-C. The MDD 95 for a sample of n = 100 was 0.8 for HOMA-IR and 0.6 for TG/HDL-C. Conclusions Short-term repeatability was fair to good for HOMA-IR and excellent for TG/HDL-C according to suggested benchmarks, reflecting the short-term variability of their analytes. These measurement properties can inform the use of these indexes in clinical and population-based studies.
Gamma-ray lines may reveal the CP nature of the dark matter particle

description: Determining the fundamental properties of the dark matter is one of the most important open problems in particle physics today. If the dark matter particle has spin zero, one of these properties is its CP nature. That is, whether it is CP-even (scalar), CP-odd (pseudoscalar), or if its interactions violate CP. In this paper, we show that the observation of $γ$-ray lines arising from the decay of a spin-zero dark matter particle could be used to discriminate among these possibilities. We consider a general setup where dark matter decay is induced by effective operators and demonstrate that, due to gauge invariance, there exists correlations among the branching ratios into gauge boson final states ($γγ$, $γZ$, $W^+W^-$, $ZZ$) that depend on the mass and the CP properties of the dark matter. Consequently, the future observation of $γ$-ray lines may in principle be used to establish the CP nature of the dark matter particle.

description: The boson Hubbard model has been extensively studied as a model of the zero temperature superfluid/insulator transition in Helium-4 on periodic substrates. It can also serve as a model for vortex lines in superconductors with a magnetic field parallel to a periodic array of columnar pins, due to a formal analogy between the vortex lines and the statistical mechanics of quantum bosons. When the magnetic field has a component perpendicular to the pins, this analogy yields a non-Hermitian boson Hubbard model. At integer filling, we find that for small transverse fields, the insulating phase is preserved, and the transverse field is exponentially screened away from the boundaries of the superconductor. At larger transverse fields, a ``superfluid'' phase of tilted, entangled vortices appears. The universality class of the transition is found to be that of vortex lines entering the Meissner phase at H_{c1}, with the additional feature that the direction of the tilted vortices at the transition bears a non-trivial relationship to the direction of the applied magnetic field. The properties of the Mott Insulator and flux liquid phases with tilt are also discussed.

description: We use the exponential random graph models to understand the network structure and its generative process for the Japanese bipartite network of banks and firms. One of the well known and simple model of exponential random graph is the Bernoulli model which shows the links in the bank-firm network are not independent from each other. Another popular exponential random graph model, the two star model, indicates that the bank-firms are in a state where macroscopic variables of the system can show large fluctuations. Moreover, the presence of high fluctuations reflect a fragile nature of the bank-firm network.

UV-recycling of phosphorus in the Archean Eon
Creators: name: Farr, Orion
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: Marine productivity relies on a constant flux of essential nutrients in order to fix CO2 and produce O2. Phosphorous, is considered to be a primary limiting nutrient for life. The element is supplied via the continental weathering of silicate rocks - a process which is thought to have been limited by reduced continental exposure during the Archean Eon (4 -2.5 Ga). A lack of consistent P supply would have heavily constrained productivity and the development of the nascent biosphere without recycling. Here, we show that under putative Archean conditions (anoxic, Fe2+ rich), UV light quickly degrades biologically ubiquitous organic phosphates (adenosine monophosphate, phosphatidylserine, methyl phosphonate) and thus provides a mechanism for phosphate recycling on the early Earth. We propose that this process promoted stable surface water productivity, bridging the two-billion-year gap between an anoxic and oxygenic phosphate cycle.

description: Background: Pulmonary dysfunction predicts incident cardiovascular disease (CVD). Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether longitudinal decline in lung function is associated with incident heart failure (HF), coronary heart disease (CHD), and stroke. Methods: Among 10,351 participants in the ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk In Communities) study free of CVD, rapid lung function decline was defined as the greatest quartile (n = 2,585) of decline in either forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) (>1.9% decline/year) or forced vital capacity (FVC) (>2.1% decline/year) over 2.9 ± 0.2 years. The relationship between rapid decline in FEV1 or FVC and subsequent incident HF, CHD, stroke, or a composite of these was assessed using multivariable Cox regression adjusting for the baseline spirometry value, demographics, height, body mass index, heart rate, diabetes, hypertension, low-density lipoprotein, use of lipid-lowering medication, N-terminal fragment of prohormone for B-type natriuretic peptide, and smoking. Results: The mean age was 54 ± 6 years, 56% were women, and 81% were white. At 17 ± 6 years of follow-up, HF occurred in 14%, CHD 11%, stroke 6%, and the composite in 24%. Rapid decline in FEV1 and in FVC were both associated with a heightened risk of incident HF (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.17; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04 to 1.33; p = 0.010; and HR: 1.27; 95% CI: 1.12 to 1.44; p < 0.001; respectively), with rapid decline in FEV1 most prognostic in the first year of follow-up (HR: 4.22; 95% CI: 1.34 to 13.26; p = 0.01). Rapid decline in FEV1 was also associated with incident stroke (HR: 1.25; 95% CI: 1.04 to 1.50; p = 0.015). Conclusions: A rapid decline in lung function, assessed by serial spirometry, is associated with a higher incidence of subsequent CVD, particularly incident HF.

description: The mechanical behaviour of two types of pasta (noodles and bucatini) was studied in a cantilever-loaded-at-the-end experimental setup. One end of each pasta was fixed while the other end was submitted to forces perpendicular to the line determined by the pasta when undeflected. Elastic curves were studied, resulting in values of $E=2.60$ GPa and $E=2.26$ GPa for the Young's modulus of bucatini and noodles respectively. The relation coming from small slopes approximation between the free end's displacement and the load was analyzed, resulting in values of $E=2.33$ GPa and $E=2.44$ GPa for the Young's modulus of bucatini and noodles respectively. Mechanical hysteresis was found in the pasta, resulting in a small deformation. This experiment can be done with low cost materials and it is a good first introduction to some basic concepts of elasticity for mechanics courses.

description: Background-The American Heart Association has defined metrics of ideal cardiovascular health known as Life's Simple 7 (LS7) to prevent cardiovascular disease. We examined the association between LS7 and incident atrial fibrillation (AF) in a biracial cohort of middle- and older-aged adults without known cardiovascular disease. Methods and Results-This analysis included 13 182 ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) study participants (mean baseline age=54±5.7 years; 56% women; 25% black) free of AF and cardiovascular disease. An overall LS7 score was calculated as the sum of the LS7 component scores and classified as inadequate (0-4), average (5-9), or optimal (10-14) cardiovascular health. The primary outcome was incident AF, identified primarily by ECG and hospital discharge coding of AF through December 31, 2014. A total of 2266 (17%) incident AF cases were detected over a median follow-up of 25.1 years. Compared with the inadequate category (n=1057), participants in the average (n=8629) and optimal (n=3496) categories each had a lower risk of developing AF in a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model (hazard ratio 0.59, 95% confidence interval 0.51, 0.67 for average; and hazard ratio 0.38, 95% confidence interval 0.32, 0.44 for optimal). In a similar model, a 1-point-higher LS7 score was associated with a 12% lower risk of incident AF (hazard ratio 0.88, 95% confidence interval 0.86, 0.89). Conclusions-A higher LS7 score is strongly associated with a lower risk of AF in individuals without baseline cardiovascular disease. Determining whether interventions that improve the population's cardiovascular health also reduce AF incidence is needed.

description: Effects of possible orbital order in magnetic properties of two-dimensional spin gap system for CaV$_4$O$_9$ are investigated theoretically. After analyzing experimental data, we show that single orbital models assumed in the literature are insufficient to reproduce the data. To understand the origin of the discrepancy, we assume that in $d^1$ state of V, $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals have substantial contributions in the lowest-energy atomic level which leads to a double-degeneracy. We study possible configurations of the orbital order. By exact diagonalization and perturbation expansion, we calculate the susceptibility, wavenumber dependence of low-lying excitations and equal-time spin-spin correlations which is related to integrated intensity of the neutron inelastic scattering. These quantities sensitively depend on the configuration of the orbital order. The calculated results for some configurations of the orbital order reproduce many experimental results much better than the previous single-orbital models. However some discrepancy still remains to completely reproduce all of the reported experimental results. To understand the origin of these discrepancies, we point out the possible importance of the partially occupied $d_{xy}$ orbital in addition to orbital order of partially filled $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals.

description: We present a synthesis of all the available empirical evidence in the light of recent theoretical developments for the existence of characteristic log-periodic signatures of growing bubbles in a variety of markets including 8 unrelated crashes from 1929 to 1998 on stock markets as diverse as the US, Hong-Kong or the Russian market and on currencies. To our knowledge, no major financial crash preceded by an extended bubble has occurred in the past 2 decades without exhibiting such log-periodic signatures.

description: We propose a device model that elucidates the role of domain walls in the photovoltaic effect in multi-domain ferroelectric perovskites. The model accounts for the intricate interplay between ferroelectric polarization, space charges, photo-generation and electronic transport. When applied to bismuth ferrite, results show a significant electric potential step across both 71-degree and 109-degree domain walls, which in turn contributes to the photovoltaic (PV) effect. We also find a strong correlation between polarization and oxygen octahedra tilts, which indicates the nontrivial role of the latter in the PV effect. The domain wall-based PV effect is further shown to be additive in nature, allowing for the possibility of generating above-bandgap voltage

description: Background--Previous studies have reported that atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with cognitive decline and dementia. These studies, however, had limited follow-up, were based mostly on white and highly selected populations, and did not account for attrition. We evaluated the association of incident AF with 20-year change in cognitive performance (accounting for attrition) and incident dementia in the ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) Study. Methods and Results--We analyzed data from 12 515 participants (mean age, 56.9 [SD, 5.7] years in 1990-1992; 56% women and 24% black) from 1990 to 1992 through 2011 to 2013. Incident AF was ascertained from study ECGs and hospital discharge codes. Cognitive tests were performed in 1990 to 1992, 1996 to 1998, and 2011 to 2013. Incident dementia was clinician adjudicated. We used generalized estimating equations and Cox proportional hazards models to assess the association of timedependent AF with change in Z scores of cognitive tests and incident dementia, respectively. During 20 years, 2106 participants developed AF and 1157 participants developed dementia. After accounting for cardiovascular risk factors, including ischemic stroke, the average decline over 20 years in global cognitive Z score was 0.115 (95% confidence interval, 0.014-0.215) greater in participants with AF than in those without AF. Further adjustment for attrition by multiple imputation by chained equations strengthened the association. In addition, incident AF was associated with an increased risk of dementia (hazard ratio, 1.23; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-1.45), after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors, including ischemic stroke. Conclusions--AF is associated with greater cognitive decline and increased risk of dementia, independent of ischemic stroke. Because cognitive decline is a precursor to dementia, our findings prompt further investigation to identify specific treatments for AF that will delay the trajectory of cognitive decline and, thus, prevent dementia in patients with AF.
Projective and Conformal Schwarzian Derivatives and Cohomology of Lie Algebras Vector Fields Related to Differential Operators

description: Let $M$ be either a projective manifold $(M,Pi)$ or a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M,g).$ We extend, intrinsically, the projective/conformal Schwarzian derivatives that we have introduced recently, to the space of differential operators acting on symmetric contravariant tensor fields of any degree on $M.$ As operators, we show that the projective/conformal Schwarzian derivatives depend only on the projective connection $Pi$ and the conformal class $[g]$ of the metric, respectively. Furthermore, we compute the first cohomology group of $Vect(M)$ with coefficients into the space of symmetric contravariant tensor fields valued into $delta$-densities as well as the corresponding relative cohomology group with respect to $sl(n+1,R).$

description: In the near future, a few percent of world electricity may be needed to
 power data centres around the world. This energy ultimately becomes waste
 heat, and the thesis investigates ways to use it. But for selected uses in
 cold regions, previous research has not addressed this issue. Neither have
 the growing data needs of low-income countries been discussed much from an
 environmental perspective.

 The thesis argues there exists a bond between technology, societal
 progress and environmental sustainability, and that this bond can be used
 to solve the energy problems of the rapidly growing data centre industry.
 In fact, a society in need of data exchange and a planet unable to cope
 with unsustainable energy use turn out to be good bed-fellows, as an
 evidently holistic problem calls for an equally holistic, systems
 science-based solution.

 Through three cases studies (Malaysia, Costa Rica, Sweden), research is
 carried out relating to dehydration of commodities such as coffee beans,
 wooden pellets and seaweed, as well as to energy storage solutions. The
 concepts are then evaluated using a developed analytical framework and
 novel data centre energy efficiency metrics. The work is underpinned by a
 literature review, interviews and ethnographic studies. Crucial to the
 evaluation has been the possibility to compare the three contrasting
 cases, where the Arctic meets the tropics and where city meets
 countryside.

 The results show that a systems science-based view and a high-level metric
 open up new possibilities for data centre waste heat use worldwide.

description: This paper reports the analysis procedure and results of simultaneous spectral fits of the Suzaku archive data for Sagittarius (Sgr) A East and the nearby Galactic center X-ray emission (GCXE). The results are that the mixed-morphology supernova remnant Sgr A East has a recombining plasma (RP) with Cr and Mn He$α$ lines, and a power-law component (PL) with an Fe I K$α$ line. The nearby GCXE has a $\sim$1.5-times larger surface brightness than the mean GCXE far from Sgr A East, although the spectral shape is almost identical. Based on these results, we interpret that the origins of the RP and the PL with the Fe I K$α$ line are past big flares of Sgr A$^*$.

description: In wireless communication systems (WCSs), the network optimization problems (NOPs) play an important role in maximizing system performances by setting appropriate network configurations. When dealing with NOPs by using conventional optimization methodologies, there exist the following three problems: human intervention, model invalid, and high computation complexity. As such, in this article we propose an auto-learning framework (ALF) to achieve intelligent and automatic network optimization by using machine learning (ML) techniques. We review the basic concepts of ML techniques, and propose their rudimentary employment models in WCSs, including automatic model construction, experience replay, efficient trial-and-error, RL-driven gaming, complexity reduction, and solution recommendation. We hope these proposals can provide new insights and motivations in future researches for dealing with NOPs in WCSs by using ML techniques.
