description: This paper presents the conceptual design study results of the heavy transport aircraft, which is proposed for replacement of An-124 aircraft in the airfreight niche. Major parameters of aircraft layout were chosen. Preliminary aerodynamic characteristics and weights of chosen layouts are defined. Wing aerodynamic design was performed. Aircraft performance was calculated. Selected geometric and weight parameters guarantee transportation of 150 t payload with cruise speed 850 km/h at 7000 km range with required airfield length 3000 m. With maximum payload 180 t practical range is about 4900 km. Takeoff weight limits for operations from airfield with 2500 m are determined.

description: The annual preference poll for members of the Board of Governors of Reston Community Center has historically yielded a minimal turnout. Last year voting was desultory at best: 338 ballots were cast. This year the contest aroused enough public interest to bring 1,300 tax-district residents to the polls. The number of candidates in prior years never surpassed six. This year nine candidates entered the preference poll lists to fill three seats. Low voter turnout in the past has resulted in little involuntary turnover of members of the Board of Governors. This year the two governors who sought reelection were both rejected by the voters. If future RCC preference polls continue to be vigorously contested, the effect on RCC management will be nothing short of revolutionary.

description: We explore paleo-detectors as an approach to the direct detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) dark matter radically different from conventional detectors. Instead of instrumenting a (large) target mass in a laboratory in order to observe WIMP-induced nuclear recoils in real time, the approach is to examine ancient minerals for traces of WIMP-nucleus interactions recorded over timescales as large as 1 Gyr. Here, we discuss the paleo-detector proposal in detail, including background sources and possible target materials. In order to suppress backgrounds induced by radioactive contaminants such as uranium, we propose to use minerals found in marine evaporites or in ultra-basic rocks. We estimate the sensitivity of paleo-detectors to spin-independent and spin-dependent WIMP-nucleus interactions. The sensitivity to low-mass WIMPs with masses $m_χ\lesssim 10$ GeV extends to WIMP-nucleon cross sections many orders of magnitude smaller than current upper limits. For heavier WIMPs with masses $m_χ\gtrsim 30$ GeV cross sections a factor of a few to $\sim 100$ smaller than current upper limits can be probed by paleo-detectors.

description: The focus of this paper is on the probability, $E_β(0;J)$, that a set $J$ consisting of a finite union of intervals contains no eigenvalues for the finite $N$ Gaussian Orthogonal ($β=1$) and Gaussian Symplectic ($β=4$) Ensembles and their respective scaling limits both in the bulk and at the edge of the spectrum. We show how these probabilities can be expressed in terms of quantities arising in the corresponding unitary ($β=2$) ensembles. Our most explicit new results concern the distribution of the largest eigenvalue in each of these ensembles. In the edge scaling limit we show that these largest eigenvalue distributions are given in terms of a particular Painlevé II function.

Machine Learning for Optimal Parameter Prediction in Quantum Key Distribution
Creators: name: Wang, Wenyuan

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: For a practical quantum key distribution (QKD) system, parameter optimization - the choice of intensities and probabilities of sending them - is a crucial step in gaining optimal performance, especially when one realistically considers finite communication time. With the increasing interest in the field to implement QKD over free-space on moving platforms, such as drones, handheld systems, and even satellites, one needs to perform parameter optimization with low latency and with very limited computing power. Moreover, with the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), a highly attractive direction of QKD could be a quantum network with multiple devices and numerous connections, which provides a huge computational challenge for the controller that optimizes parameters for a large-scale network. Traditionally, such an optimization relies on brute-force search, or local search algorithms, which are computationally intensive, and will be slow on low-power platforms (which increases latency in the system) or infeasible for even moderately large networks. In this work we present a new method that uses a neural network to directly predict the optimal parameters for QKD systems. We test our machine learning algorithm on hardware devices including a Raspberry Pi 3 single-board-computer (similar devices are commonly used on drones) and a mobile phone, both of which have a power consumption of less than 5 watts, and we find a speedup of up to 100-1000 times when compared to standard local search algorithms. The predicted parameters are highly accurate and can preserve over 95-99% of the optimal secure key rate. Moreover, our approach is highly general and not limited to any specific QKD protocol.

description: We calculate the leading logarithmic QCD corrections to the decay B_s --> γγin the two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) including O_7 type long distance effects and estimate the restrictions of the 2HDM parameters, tanβand m_H, using the experimental data of B --> X_s γdecay provided by the CLEO collaboration. A lower bound for the charged Higgs mass m_H as a function of the renormalization scale μis given for 2HDM model II. We further present the dependencies of the branching ratio Br(B_s --> γγ) and the ratio |A^{+}|^2/|A^{-}|^2 on m_H and tanβincluding leading logarithmic QCD corrections. The dependence on the renormalization scale is found to be strong for both ratios. An additional uncertainty arises from the variation of the parameters of the bound state model, (m_b, \barΛ_s). We see, that to look for charged Higgs effects the measurement of the branching ratio Br(B_s --> γγ) is promising.

description: Ovarian carcinoma is considered as a major clinical challenge worldwide. Exosomes, nano-sized intraluminal vesicles of multivesicular bodies, are secreted by most types of cells and play an important role in intercellular communication. Cancer cell-derived exosomes can develop cancer progression and metastasis by manipulating the local and distant biological environments. Angiogenesis is an important contributor to tumor progression. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the most potent pro-angiogenic protein and induces proliferation, sprouting, and vessel formation by endothelial cells. In this study, exosomes derived from ovarian epithelial cancer cells OVACAR-3 (exo-OVCAR-3) were successfully isolated and characterized by scanning electron microscopy in terms of size and morphology. Cellular internalization of exosomes labeled with PKH fluorescent dye was monitored by a fluorescence microscope. Our results elucidated that exosomes treatment (100 µg/ml) had a promoting effect on VEGF expression and secretion in endothelial cells. Furthermore, we demonstrated that exo-OVCAR-3 caused an increase in the proliferation and migration rate of endothelial cells. It seems that inducing VEGF by exo-OVCAR-3 can influence the vascular behavior of endothelial cells in vitro.

Relaxation schemes for normal modes of magnetic vortices: Application to S-matrix

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Relaxation schemes for finding normal modes of nonlinear excitations are described, and applied to the vortex-spinwave scattering problem in classical two-dimensional easy-plane Heisenberg models. The schemes employ the square of an effective Hamiltonian to ensure positive eigenvalues, together with an evolution in time or a self-consistent Gauss-Seidel iteration producing diffusive relaxation. We find some of the lowest frequency spinwave modes in a circular system with a single vortex present. The method is used to describe the vortex-spinwave scattering (S-matrix and phase shifts) and other dynamical properties of vortices in ferromagnets and antiferromagnets, for systems larger than that solvable by diagonalization methods. The lowest frequency modes associated with translation of the vortex center are used to estimate the vortex mass.

title: The Political Economy of D.C. School Choice: An Institutional Analysis of the Washington D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program

Publisher: name: George Mason University

Subjects: subject: Education

subject: Vouchers

description: Economic theory gives us many reasons to think that school choice programs would address several problems plaguing our nation‘s public school system. This thesis examines one attempt to implement that theory, Washington, D.C.‘s Opportunity Scholarship Program (OSP), to see how the positive predictions of school choice theory play out or do not play out in practice. The economic case for school choice rests on three related factors: knowledge, incentives, and competition. School choice should allow for better school-child matches than geographically-assigned government-run public schools, as parents are able to act on the intimate knowledge they have of their child‘s educational needs. School choice should also incentivize parents to be more informed educational consumers and incentivize schools to improve their services in an effort to attract or retain voucher students. This would lead to a more competitive educational market, ripe with innovation and, ultimately, improved student performance. OSP was successful in some of these areas and not in others. Evidence from OSP suggests that at least some students benefited as a result of participating in the program, either by improved standardized test scores in reading and/or by higher graduation rates. There is no evidence that any participants were worse off for having participated in the program. Further, most participants were highly satisfied with their experience in the program on a wide variety of margins including safety and school quality. The program was less successful in sparking widespread competition amongst schools, though some public and private school principals did report making changes in hopes of either retaining or attracting OSP students. The program features and institutional constraints of OSP were key in shaping these outcomes. The wide range of options available to OSP students allowed for the increased possibility of finding good school-child matches, though this was harder to achieve at the high school level where fewer options were available. Also key to finding good school-child matches was the wide range of information available to parents, including formal guides to personal connections. Evidence suggests that parents acted as informed consumers, examining substantive school qualities over superficial attributes, when choosing a school. They also improved as educational consumers over time, as school choice provided the incentive for them to be more involved in the educational process. A key factor in OSP‘s inability to affect system-wide change in D.C. schools is likely the program‘s funding structure, which did not provide a financial punishment for public schools that lost students to OSP. If policymakers wish to improve the performance of school choice programs in the future, it is these program features that they should address.

 For many years, Rhipicephalus lunulatus was confused with Rhipicephalus tricuspis until Walker et al. (1988) definitively reinstated this species. Thereafter, Walker et al. (1995) described Rhipicephalus interventus, a tick with morphological characters that appear to be intermediate between those of Rhipicephalus lunulatus and Rhipicephalus tricuspis. Consequently, Walker et al. (2000) cautioned that several records of Rhipicephalus lunulatus may yet be confused with Rhipicephalus interventus or Rhipicephalus tricuspis. Records of this tick published prior to the study of Walker et al. (2000) were not included in this analysis.
 Oddly, Kolonin (2009) presented a geographic distribution of Rhipicephalus lunulatus broader than that in Walker et al. (2000), while using references that are not unlike those in Walker et al. (2000).

description: This study investigates the use of territory by the Islamic State (IS). Specifically, it looks at how the IS utilizes the caliphate to fulfill their destructive purposes as a terrorist group. Previous literature highlights the destructive actions of the IS but neglects to show the relation between those actions and the holding of territory. In addition, most literature strictly focuses on the religious ideology of the IS and how that is the most destructive component of the group. Through the use of qualitative coding and quantitative data collection, this study explored the framing of the caliphate in relation to the height of the IS and the caliphate. Sixty news articles were analyzed and coded into various categories highlighting the primary concern surrounding the IS and/or the caliphate. Quantitative data from various data programs was collected to show the level of destruction (through casualties, displaced persons, and kidnappings) throughout the years of the Islamic State. The analysis shows that, through the methodology used, the IS is perceived to create more destruction during the years they held territory. Through their use of physically holding territory, an ancient reinterpretation of Islam, and economic uses of the caliphate, the IS is able to invoke more devastation across the globe. Additionally, the Islamic State’s ideology and role of the caliph also contribute to their fulfillment of their violent goals. However, this study shows that the caliphate is a primary source of destruction and helps the IS attain their goals as a terrorist group. Implications for this study involve possible recommendations for policymakers and counterterrorism officials. Future strategies, involved in combatting the IS, should to focus on their use of territory and restricting access to lands previously held by the group. In addition, approaches should be multi-faceted and analyze the IS through a combination of frameworks. Overall, the IS and their use of the caliphate helps them attain their violent and devastating goals across the globe.

description: We propose an inverse seesaw model based on hidden global symmetry $U(1)_H$ in which we realize tiny neutrino masses with rather natural manner taking into account relevant experimental bounds. The small Majorana mass for inverse seesaw mechanism is induced via small vacuum expectation value of a triplet scalar field whose Yukawa interactions with standard model fermions are controlled by $U(1)_H$. We discuss the phenomenology of the exotic particles present in the model including the Goldstone boson coming from breaking of the global symmetry, and explore testability at the Large Hadron Collider experiments.

description: We consider a quantum mechanical particle living on a graph and discuss the behaviour of its wavefunction at graph vertices. In addition to the standard (or delta type) boundary conditions with continuous wavefunctions, we investigate two types of a singular coupling which are analogous to the delta' interaction and its symmetrized version for particle on a line. We show that these couplings can be used to model graph superlattices in which point junctions are replaced by complicated geometric scatterers. We also discuss the band spectra for rectangular lattices with the mentioned couplings. We show that they roughly correspond to their Kronig-Penney analogues: the delta' lattices have bands whose widths are asymptotically bounded and do not approach zero, while the delta lattice gap widths are bounded. However, if the lattice-spacing ratio is an irrational number badly approximable by rationals, and the delta coupling constant is small enough, the delta lattice has no ggaps above the threshold of the spectrum. On the other hand, infinitely many gaps emerge above a critical value of the coupling constant; for almost all ratios this value is zero.

description: The 21-cm signal from the epoch of reionization is non-Gaussian. Current radio telescopes are focused on detecting the 21-cm power spectrum, but in the future the Square Kilometre Array is anticipated to provide a first measurement of the bispectrum. Previous studies have shown that the position-dependent power spectrum is a simple and efficient way to probe the squeezed-limit bispectrum. In this approach, the survey is divided into subvolumes and the correlation between the local power spectrum and the corresponding mean density of the subvolume is computed. This correlation is equivalent to an integral of the bispectrum in the squeezed limit, but is much simpler to implement than the usual bispectrum estimators. It also has a clear physical interpretation: it describes how the small-scale power spectrum of tracers such as galaxies and the 21-cm signal respond to a large-scale environment. Reionization naturally couples large and small scales as ionizing radiation produced by galactic sources can travel up to tens of Megaparsecs through the intergalactic medium during this process. Here we apply the position-dependent power spectrum approach to fluctuations in the 21-cm background from reionization. We show that this statistic has a distinctive evolution in time that can be understood with a simple analytic model. We also show that the statistic can easily distinguish between simple "inside-out" and "outside-in" models of reionization. The position-dependent power spectrum is thus a promising method to validate the reionization signal and to extract higher-order information on this process.

 Afrotropical: 1) Eswatini, 2) Kenya, 3) Malawi, 4) Mozambique, 5) South Africa, 6) Tanzania, 7) Zambia, 8) Zimbabwe (Yeoman & Walker 1967, Walker 1974, Keirans 1985b, Tandon 1991, Walker et al. 2000, Morel 2003, Horak et al. 2018, Ledger et al. 2021, Olivieri et al. 2021).
 Neumann (1901) described Rhipicephalus maculatus from ticks allegedly collected on an insect in Cameroon, but that was a case of mislabeling, and Rhipicephalus maculatus is not found in Cameroon, as explained in Morel (2003).

description: The space-time development of a quark-gluon plasma is calculated from a Vlasov equation for the distribution function of quasiparticles with medium dependent masses. At each space-time point the masses are calculated selfconsistently from a gap equation, whose form is determined by the requirement that in thermal equilibrium and for a range of temperatures the energy density of the quasi-particle system is identical to the one from lattice calculations . The numerical solutions of the Vlasov equation display confinement. Relations to effective theories like that by Friedberg Lee and Nambu Jona-Lasinio are established.

description: 49. Rhipicephalus masseyi Nuttall & Warburton, 1908.
 Afrotropical: 1) Democratic Republic of the Congo, 2) Malawi, 3) Mozambique, 4) Tanzania, 5) Zambia (Walker et al. 2020).
 Walker et al. (2000) stated that considerable difficulties attend the identification of Rhipicephalus masseyi. These authors reported that the description of this species by Theiler (1947) invites confusion with adults of Rhipicephalus muehlensi and Rhipicephalus attenuatus, a synonym of Rhipicephalus lunulatus, and that the nymph described as Rhipicephalus masseyi by Theiler (1947) is, in fact, the nymph of Rhipicephalus maculatus. Rhipicephalus masseyi has been confused with Rhipicephalus kochi, and its morphological separation from Rhipicephalus ziemanni is difficult. Moreover, alleged records of Rhipicephalus masseyi from South Africa were later re-identified as Rhipicephalus muehlensi, as discussed in Walker et al. (2000), who also regarded Angolan records of Rhipicephalus masseyi as erroneous. For these reasons, information concerning Rhipicephalus masseyi published prior to the study of Walker et al. (2000) is not included in this analysis.

Rethinking Lossy Compression: The Rate-Distortion-Perception Tradeoff

description: Lossy compression algorithms are typically designed and analyzed through the lens of Shannon's rate-distortion theory, where the goal is to achieve the lowest possible distortion (e.g., low MSE or high SSIM) at any given bit rate. However, in recent years, it has become increasingly accepted that "low distortion" is not a synonym for "high perceptual quality", and in fact optimization of one often comes at the expense of the other. In light of this understanding, it is natural to seek for a generalization of rate-distortion theory which takes perceptual quality into account. In this paper, we adopt the mathematical definition of perceptual quality recently proposed by Blau & Michaeli (2018), and use it to study the three-way tradeoff between rate, distortion, and perception. We show that restricting the perceptual quality to be high, generally leads to an elevation of the rate-distortion curve, thus necessitating a sacrifice in either rate or distortion. We prove several fundamental properties of this triple-tradeoff, calculate it in closed form for a Bernoulli source, and illustrate it visually on a toy MNIST example.

description: For $n$ independent random variables having the same Hölder continuous density, this paper deals with controls of the Wolverton-Wagner's estimator MSE and MISE. Then, for a bandwidth $h_n(β)$, estimators of $β$ are obtained by a Goldenshluger-Lepski type method and a Lacour-Massart-Rivoirard type method. Some numerical experiments are provided for this last method.

description: A recent letter by Xue et al. (PRL v.83, 1235 ('99)) reports a Fermi-Liquid (FL) angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) lineshape for quasi one-dimensional Li0.9Mo6O17, contradicting our report (PRL v.82, 2540 ('99)) of a non-FL lineshape in this material. Xue et al. attributed the difference to the improved angle resolution. In this comment, we point out that this reasoning is flawed. Rather, we find that their data have fundamental differences from other ARPES results and also band theory.

title: One Hectare at a Time: How the New Land Grab in Africa Will Affect the EU’s Agricultural Sector
Creators: name: Schaefer, Geoff
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: European Union
subject: Africa

description: The CAP reforms proposed in 2003 do a good job of bringing the EU’s agronomy into the future. But some aspects of the proposal have not, understandably, taken into account the new phenomenon of purchasing huge swathes of land in Africa. It is hard to predict whether this trend will continue, or at what pace. However, the EU needs to prepare for marked changes in equilibrium food prices. These changes call for a more flexible policy and increased focus on investment. This paper intends to lay out the scope of the land grab, what it means for the EU and how the CAP should be adjusted to meet these future challenges. It will give a number of recommendations to hedge against a more uncertain global agronomy. In doing so the intention is to start the debate not on whether this land grab should be taking place, but how to respond to it now that it is.

Site Disordered Spin Systems in the Gaussian Variational Approximation

description: We define a replica field theory describing finite dimensional site disordered spin systems by introducing the notion of grand canonical disorder, where the number of spins in the system is random but quenched. A general analysis of this field theory is made using the Gaussian variational or Hartree Fock method, and illustrated with several specific examples. Irrespective of the form of interaction between the spins this approximation predicts a spin glass phase. We discuss the replica symmetric phase at length, explicitly identifying the correlator that diverges at the spin glass transition. We also discuss the form of continuous replica symmetry breaking found just below the transition. Finally we show how an analysis of ferromagnetic ordering indicates a breakdown of the approximation.

Measurements of inclusive and differential fiducial cross-sections of $t\bar{t}γ$ production in leptonic final states at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV in ATLAS
Creators: name: ATLAS Collaboration

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Inclusive and differential cross-sections for the production of a top-quark pair in association with a photon are measured with proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2015 and 2016 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The measurements are performed in single-lepton and dilepton final states in a fiducial volume. Events with exactly one photon, one or two leptons, a channel-dependent minimum number of jets, and at least one $b$-jet are selected. Neural network algorithms are used to separate the signal from the backgrounds. The fiducial cross-sections are measured to be 521 $\pm$ 9(stat.) $\pm$ 41(sys.) fb and 69 $\pm$ 3(stat.) $\pm$ 4(sys.) fb for the single-lepton and dilepton channels, respectively. The differential cross-sections are measured as a function of photon transverse momentum, photon absolute pseudorapidity, and angular distance between the photon and its closest lepton in both channels, as well as azimuthal opening angle and absolute pseudorapidity difference between the two leptons in the dilepton channel. All measurements are in agreement with the theoretical predictions.

description: Korpora und Fremdsprachendidaktik haben – auch jenseits des angeleiteten oder selbstgesteuerten Arbeitens an den Daten – Berührungspunkte mit langer Tradition, durchaus mit nicht-digitalen Ausläufern, deren korpuslinguistische Dimensionen erst in den letzten Jahrzehnten erschlossen wurden. Worthäufigkeitszählungen, auch vergleichend, in beliebig großen oder auf bestimmte Bedürfnisse zugeschnittenen Datensammlungen lassen sich mit weiteren Metriken verknüpfen, die eine differenzierte Bewertung für die didaktische Relevanz ermöglichen. Kollokations-/Kookkurrenzanalysen helfen, typische Formulierungsmuster zu ermitteln. Dieser Beitrag stellt zunächst diese beiden Herangehensweisen dar. Das Manko der getrennten Betrachtung ist, dass keine der beiden isoliert ausreicht, um die Angemessenheit von Formulierungen zu bewerten hinsichtlich muttersprachlicher Natürlichkeit und Weiterentwicklung des Lernstands. Als Abhilfe wird eine Verknüpfung skizziert, die beide Perspektiven zusammenbringt.

description: What do artists read? Certainly there are favorite books, audio recordings, and DVDs—ones that influenced an artist’s thinking, or that changed the course of an inquiry altogether. Although their practice is primarily a visual one, artists also engage in a verbal practice of reading, writing, and listening that in turn informs the making. With this in mind, Fenwick Gallery is pleased to exhibit Verbal/Visual: The Texts and Influences Behind Mason’s MFA Artists. On view through May 4th, 2015, the exhibit showcases work by six visual artists in Mason’s MFA program in the School of Art alongside the books that have most informed the work. All of the artists in this exhibit are graduating in Spring of 2015 and have, over their time in the MFA program, developed a strong studio practice that includes both making and reading. Each artist has selected a few books that have had a profound impact on their work. Visit the gallery to discover their visual work and reveal some of their greatest influences found right here in the Mason Library’s collection.
