Mathematics - Numerical Analysis - Abstract
In this paper, we develop a second-order, fully decoupled, and energy-stable numerical scheme for the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes model for two phase flow with variable density and viscosity. We propose a new decoupling Constant Scalar Auxiliary Variable (D-CSAV) method which is easy to generalize to schemes with high order accuracy in time. The method is designed using the "zero-energy-contribution" property while maintaining conservative time discretization for the "non-zero-energy-contribution" terms. Our algorithm simplifies to solving three independent linear elliptic systems per time step, two of them with constant coefficients. The update of all scalar auxiliary variables is explicit and decoupled from solving the phase field variable and velocity field. We rigorously prove unconditional energy stability of the scheme and perform extensive benchmark simulations to demonstrate accuracy and efficiency of the method.

Mathematics - Numerical Analysis - Abstract
We propose a fast scheme for approximating the Mittag-Leffler function by an efficient sum-of-exponentials (SOE), and apply the scheme to the viscoelastic model of wave propagation with mixed finite element methods for the spatial discretization and the Newmark-beta scheme for the second-order temporal derivative. Compared with traditional L1 scheme for fractional derivative, our fast scheme reduces the memory complexity from $\mathcal O(N_sN) $ to $\mathcal O(N_sN_{exp})$ and the computation complexity from $\mathcal O(N_sN^2)$ to $\mathcal O(N_sN_{exp}N)$, where $N$ denotes the total number of temporal grid points, $N_{exp}$ is the number of exponentials in SOE, and $N_s$ represents the complexity of memory and computation related to the spatial discretization. Numerical experiments are provided to verify the theoretical results.

Two-dimensional (2D) multiferroic heterostructures present a promising platform for advanced spin devices by leveraging the coexisting ferromagnetic (FM) and ferroelectric (FE) orders. Through first-principles calculations and micromagnetic simulations, we reveal non-volatile control of metallicity and topological spin textures in the Cr2Ge2Te6/Hf2Ge2Te6(CGT/HGT) heterostructure. Notably, manipulating ferroelectric polarization in HGT significantly modulates the magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) of CGT/HGT, reversing the easy magnetization axis from in-plane to out-of-plane. By analyzing the atomic-resolved SOC energy (\Delta Esoc), it is found that the cause of the change comes from the Fert-Levy mechanism. Additionally, this polarization control enables the creation and annihilation of bimerons and skyrmions, with interlayer sliding further altering magnetic ordering. Our findings offer valuable insights into magnetoelectric coupling and spin texture manipulation in 2D magnets, highlighting their potential for next-generation spintronic and memory devices., Comment: 9 pages,5 figures

Computer Science - Robotics - Abstract
Recent advances in machine learning have paved the way for the development of musical and entertainment robots. However, human-robot cooperative instrument playing remains a challenge, particularly due to the intricate motor coordination and temporal synchronization. In this paper, we propose a theoretical framework for human-robot cooperative piano playing based on non-verbal cues. First, we present a music improvisation model that employs a recurrent neural network (RNN) to predict appropriate chord progressions based on the human's melodic input. Second, we propose a behavior-adaptive controller to facilitate seamless temporal synchronization, allowing the cobot to generate harmonious acoustics. The collaboration takes into account the bidirectional information flow between the human and robot. We have developed an entropy-based system to assess the quality of cooperation by analyzing the impact of different communication modalities during human-robot collaboration. Experiments demonstrate that our RNN-based improvisation can achieve a 93\% accuracy rate. Meanwhile, with the MPC adaptive controller, the robot could respond to the human teammate in homophony performances with real-time accompaniment. Our designed framework has been validated to be effective in allowing humans and robots to work collaboratively in the artistic piano-playing task., Comment: 20 pages

Histopathology analysis is the gold standard for medical diagnosis. Accurate classification of whole slide images (WSIs) and region-of-interests (ROIs) localization can assist pathologists in diagnosis. The gigapixel resolution of WSI and the absence of fine-grained annotations make direct classification and analysis challenging. In weakly supervised learning, multiple instance learning (MIL) presents a promising approach for WSI classification. The prevailing strategy is to use attention mechanisms to measure instance importance for classification. However, attention mechanisms fail to capture inter-instance information, and self-attention causes quadratic computational complexity. To address these challenges, we propose AMD-MIL, an agent aggregator with a mask denoise mechanism. The agent token acts as an intermediate variable between the query and key for computing instance importance. Mask and denoising matrices, mapped from agents-aggregated value, dynamically mask low-contribution representations and eliminate noise. AMD-MIL achieves better attention allocation by adjusting feature representations, capturing micro-metastases in cancer, and improving interpretability. Extensive experiments on CAMELYON-16, CAMELYON-17, TCGA-KIDNEY, and TCGA-LUNG show AMD-MIL's superiority over state-of-the-art methods.

Rapid advancements have been made in extending Large Language Models (LLMs) to Large Multi-modal Models (LMMs). However, extending input modality of LLMs to video data remains a challenging endeavor, especially for long videos. Due to insufficient access to large-scale high-quality video data and the excessive compression of visual features, current methods exhibit limitations in effectively processing long videos. In this paper, we introduce Kangaroo, a powerful Video LMM aimed at addressing these challenges. Confronted with issue of inadequate training data, we develop a data curation system to build a large-scale dataset with high-quality annotations for vision-language pre-training and instruction tuning. In addition, we design a curriculum training pipeline with gradually increasing resolution and number of input frames to accommodate long videos. Evaluation results demonstrate that, with 8B parameters, Kangaroo achieves state-of-the-art performance across a variety of video understanding benchmarks while exhibiting competitive results on others. Particularly, on benchmarks specialized for long videos, Kangaroo excels some larger models with over 10B parameters and proprietary models.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
In magnetically ordered insulators, elementary quasiparticles manifest as spin waves - collective motions of localized magnetic moments propagating through the lattice - observed via inelastic neutron scattering. In effective spin-1/2 systems where geometric frustrations suppress static magnetic order, spin excitation continua can emerge, either from degenerate classical spin ground states or from entangled quantum spins characterized by emergent gauge fields and deconfined fractionalized excitations. Comparing the spin Hamiltonian with theoretical models can unveil the microscopic origins of these zero-field spin excitation continua. Here, we use neutron scattering to study spin excitations of the two-dimensional (2D) triangular-lattice effective spin-1/2 antiferromagnet CeMgAl11O19. Analyzing the spin waves in the field-polarized ferromagnetic state, we find that the spin Hamiltonian is close to an exactly solvable 2D triangular-lattice XXZ model, where degenerate 120$^\circ$ ordered ground states - umbrella states - develop in the zero temperature limit. We then find that the observed zero-field spin excitation continuum matches the calculated ensemble of spin waves from the umbrella state manifold, and thus conclude that CeMgAl11O19 is the first example of an exactly solvable spin liquid on a triangular lattice where the spin excitation continuum arises from the ground state degeneracy., Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures

We consider the Cauchy problem ($\mathbb{R}^d, d=2,3$) and the initial boundary values problem ($\mathbb{T}^d, d=2,3$)associated to the compressible Oldroyd-B model which is first derived by Barrett, Lu and S\"{u}li [Existence of large-data finite-energy global weak solutions to a compressible Oldroyd-B model, Commun. Math. Sci., 15 (2017), 1265--1323] through micro-macro-analysis of the compressible Navier-Stokes-Fokker-Planck system.Due to lack of stress diffusion, the problems considered here are very difficult. Exploiting tools from harmonic analysis,notably the Littlewood Paley theory,we first establish the global well-posedness and time-decay rates for solutions of the model with small initial data in Besov spaces with critical regularity.Then, through deeply exploring and fully utilizing the structure of the perturbation system,we obtain the global well-posedness and exponential decay rates for solutions of the model with small initial data in the Soboles spaces $H^3(\mathbb{T}^d)$.Our obtained results improve considerably the recent results by Lu, Pokorn\'{y} [Anal. Theory Appl., 36 (2020), 348--372],Wang, Wen [Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 30 (2020), 139--179],and Liu, Lu, Wen [SIAM J. Math. Anal., 53 (2021), 6216--6242]., Comment: 51pages

Statistics - Methodology - Abstract
Data depth has emerged as an invaluable nonparametric measure for the ranking of multivariate samples. The main contribution of depth-based two-sample comparisons is the introduction of the Q statistic (Liu and Singh, 1993), a quality index. Unlike traditional methods, data depth does not require the assumption of normal distributions and adheres to four fundamental properties. Many existing two-sample homogeneity tests, which assess mean and/or scale changes in distributions often suffer from low statistical power or indeterminate asymptotic distributions. To overcome these challenges, we introduced a DEEPEAST (depth-explored same-attraction sample-to-sample central-outward ranking) technique for improving statistical power in two-sample tests via the same-attraction function. We proposed two novel and powerful depth-based test statistics: the sum test statistic and the product test statistic, which are rooted in Q statistics, share a "common attractor" and are applicable across all depth functions. We further proved the asymptotic distribution of these statistics for various depth functions. To assess the performance of power gain, we apply three depth functions: Mahalanobis depth (Liu and Singh, 1993), Spatial depth (Brown, 1958; Gower, 1974), and Projection depth (Liu, 1992). Through two-sample simulations, we have demonstrated that our sum and product statistics exhibit superior power performance, utilizing a strategic block permutation algorithm and compare favourably with popular methods in literature. Our tests are further validated through analysis on Raman spectral data, acquired from cellular and tissue samples, highlighting the effectiveness of the proposed tests highlighting the effective discrimination between health and cancerous samples.

Mathematics - Analysis of PDEs - Abstract
In this paper, we are concerned with the initial boundary values problem associated to the compressible viscous non-resistive and heat-conducting magnetohydrodynamic flow, where the magnetic field is vertical. More precisely, by exploiting the intrinsic structure of the system and introducing several new unknown quantities, we overcome the difficulty stemming from the lack of dissipation for density and magnetic field, and prove the global well-posedness of strong solutions in the framework of Soboles spaces $H^3$. In addition, we also get the exponential decay for this non-resistive system. Different from the known results [23], [24], [42], we donot need the assumption that the background magnetic field is positive here., Comment: 25pages

Mathematics - Analysis of PDEs - Abstract
In this paper, we consider the full compressible, viscous, non-resistive MHD system under the assumption that the fluids move on a plane while the magnetic field is oriented vertically. Within the framework of Besov spaces, by introducing several new unknown quantities and exploiting the intrinsic structure of the system, we prove the global well-posedness of strong solutions for initial data close to a constant equilibrium state. Furthermore, under some suitable additional conditions involving only the low-frequency part of the initial perturbation, we develop a Lyapunov-type energy argument, which yields the optimal time-decay rates of the global solution. To the best of our knowledge, our result is the first one on global solvability to the full compressible, viscous, non-resistive MHD system in multi-dimensional whole space., Comment: 21pages

Complex behavioral contagion in collective evasion of mobile animal groups can be predicted by reconstructing quantitative interaction networks. Based on the assumption of time-scale separation between a fast contagion process and a slower movement response, the underlying interaction networks have been previously assumed to be static, determined by the spatial structure at the onset of the collective escape response. This idealization does not account for the temporal evolution of the spatial network structure, which may have a major impact on the behavioral contagion dynamics. Here, we propose a spatially-explicit, agent-based model for the coupling between behavioral contagion and the network dynamics originating from the spreading movement response. We explore the impact of movement parameters (startle speed, initial directionality, and directional noise) on average cascade size. By conducting numerical simulations for different density levels, we show that increasing escape speed suppresses the cascade size in most cases, that the cascade size depends strongly on the movement direction of the initially startled individual, and that large variability in the direction of individual escape movements (rotational noise) will typically promote the spread of behavioral contagion through spatial groups. Our work highlights the importance of accounting for movement dynamics in behavioral contagion, and facilitates our understanding of rapid coordinated response and collective information processing in animal groups.

- Abstract
Cultivating innovative talents in the humanities and social sciences is a pivotal element in the development of high-level innovative talents with a direct impact on a nation's superstructure and economy. Nevertheless, this area has often been a weak link in the talent market. In response to this challenge, Chinese universities have initiated the "New Humanities and Social Sciences" reform, emphasizing interdisciplinary education to nurture high-quality talents. However, the impact of interdisciplinary education within this context on the creativity of humanities and social science students, along with the intricate underlying mechanisms, remains a question yet to be fully answered. To address these issues, using survey data from 184 students majoring in humanities and social sciences in Sichuan Province of China, we employed structural equation modeling to explore the impact of interdisciplinary education on the creativity of humanities and social science students, the moderating effect of metacognitive awareness and the mediating role of knowledge integration ability. The research findings unequivocally affirm the significantly positive influence of interdisciplinary education on the creativity of humanities and social science students. Knowledge integration ability mediates the relationship between interdisciplinary education and creativity. Furthermore, metacognitive awareness plays a moderating role in the relationship between knowledge integration ability and creativity.

18. Tracing Intricate Cues in Dialogue: Joint Graph Structure and Sentiment Dynamics for Multimodal Emotion Recognition

- Subjects
Computer Science - Computation and Language - Abstract
Multimodal emotion recognition in conversation (MERC) has garnered substantial research attention recently. Existing MERC methods face several challenges: (1) they fail to fully harness direct inter-modal cues, possibly leading to less-than-thorough cross-modal modeling; (2) they concurrently extract information from the same and different modalities at each network layer, potentially triggering conflicts from the fusion of multi-source data; (3) they lack the agility required to detect dynamic sentimental changes, perhaps resulting in inaccurate classification of utterances with abrupt sentiment shifts. To address these issues, a novel approach named GraphSmile is proposed for tracking intricate emotional cues in multimodal dialogues. GraphSmile comprises two key components, i.e., GSF and SDP modules. GSF ingeniously leverages graph structures to alternately assimilate inter-modal and intra-modal emotional dependencies layer by layer, adequately capturing cross-modal cues while effectively circumventing fusion conflicts. SDP is an auxiliary task to explicitly delineate the sentiment dynamics between utterances, promoting the model's ability to distinguish sentimental discrepancies. Furthermore, GraphSmile is effortlessly applied to multimodal sentiment analysis in conversation (MSAC), forging a unified multimodal affective model capable of executing MERC and MSAC tasks. Empirical results on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that GraphSmile can handle complex emotional and sentimental patterns, significantly outperforming baseline models., Comment: Submitted

Mathematics - Numerical Analysis - Abstract
The scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) approach is a highly efficient method widely used for solving gradient flow systems. This approach offers several advantages, including linearity, unconditional energy stability, and ease of implementation. By introducing scalar auxiliary variables, a modified system that is equivalent to the original system is constructed at the continuous level. However, during temporal discretization, computational errors can lead to a loss of equivalence and accuracy. In this paper, we introduce a new Constant Scalar Auxiliary Variable (CSAV) approach in which we derive an Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) for the constant scalar auxiliary variable r. We also introduce a stabilization parameter ({\alpha}) to improve the stability of the scheme by slowing down the dynamics of r. The CSAV approach provides additional benefits as well. We explicitly discretize the auxiliary variable in combination with the nonlinear term, enabling the solution of a single linear system with constant coefficients at each time step. This new approach also eliminates the need for assumptions about the free energy potential, removing the bounded-from-below restriction imposed by the nonlinear free energy potential in the original SAV approach. Finally, we validate the proposed method through extensive numerical simulations, demonstrating its effectiveness and accuracy.

Computer Science - Computers and Society - Abstract
The rise of dockless bike-sharing systems has led to increased interest in using bike-sharing data for urban transportation and travel behavior research. However, few studies have focused on the individual daily mobility patterns, hindering their alignment with the increasingly refined needs of urban active transportation planning. To bridge this gap, this study presents a two-layer framework, integrating improved flow clustering methods and multiple rule-based decision trees, to mine individual cyclists' daily home-work commuting patterns from vast dockless bike-sharing trip data with users' IDs. The effectiveness and applicability of the framework is demonstrated by over 200 million dockless bike-sharing trip records in Shenzhen. Ultimately, based on the mining results, we obtain two categories of bike-sharing commuters (i.e., 74.38% of Only-biking commuters and 25.62% of Biking-with-transit commuters) and some interesting findings about their daily commuting patterns. For instance, lots of bike-sharing commuters live near urban villages and old communities with lower costs of living, especially in the central city. Only-biking commuters have a higher proportion of overtime than Biking-with-transit commuters, and the Longhua Industrial Park, a manufacturing-oriented area, having the longest average working hours (over 10 hours per day). Massive commuters utilize bike-sharing for commuting to work more frequently than for returning home, which is closely related to the over-demand for bike-sharing around workplaces during commuting peak. Overall, this framework offers a cost-effective way to understand residents' non-motorized mobility patterns. Moreover, it paves the way for subsequent research on fine-scale cycling behaviors that consider demographic disparities in socio-economic attributes.

Mathematics - Statistics Theory - Abstract
Recently, data depth has been widely used to rank multivariate data. The study of the depth-based $Q$ statistic, originally proposed by Liu and Singh (1993), has become increasingly popular when it can be used as a quality index to differentiate between two samples. Based on the existing theoretical foundations, more and more variants have been developed for increasing power in the two sample test. However, the asymptotic expansion of the $Q$ statistic in the important foundation work of Zuo and He (2006) currently has an optimal rate $m^{-3/4}$ slower than the target $m^{-1}$, leading to limitations in higher-order expansions for developing more powerful tests. We revisit the existing assumptions and add two new plausible assumptions to obtain the target rate by applying a new proof method based on the Hoeffding decomposition and the Cox-Reid expansion. The aim of this paper is to rekindle interest in asymptotic data depth theory, to place Q-statistical inference on a firmer theoretical basis, to show its variants in current research, to open the door to the development of new theories for further variants requiring higher-order expansions, and to explore more of its potential applications.

Condensed Matter - Superconductivity ,Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The Ruddlesden-Popper (R-P) bilayer nickelate, La3Ni2O7, was recently found to show signatures of high-temperature superconductivity (HTSC) at pressures above 14 GPa. Subsequent investigations achieved zero resistance in single- and poly-crystalline samples under hydrostatic pressure conditions. Yet, obvious diamagnetic signals, the other hallmark of superconductors, are still lacking owing to the filamentary nature with low superconducting volume fraction. The presence of a novel "1313" polymorph and competing R-P phases obscured proper identification of the phase for HTSC. Thus, achieving bulk HTSC and identifying the phase at play are the most prominent tasks at present. Here, we address these issues in the praseodymium (Pr)-doped La2PrNi2O7 polycrystalline samples. We find that the substitutions of Pr for La effectively inhibits the intergrowth of different R-P phases, resulting in nearly pure bilayer structure. For La2PrNi2O7, pressure-induced orthorhombic-to-tetragonal structural transition takes place at Pc ~ 11 GPa, above which HTSC emerges gradually upon further compression. The superconducting transition temperatures at 18-20 GPa reach Tconset = 82.5 K and Tczero = 60 K, which are the highest values among known nickelate superconductors. More importantly, bulk HTSC was testified by detecting clear diamagnetic signals below ~75 K corresponding to an estimated superconducting volume fraction ~ 57(5)% at 20 GPa. Our results not only resolve the existing controversies but also illuminate directions for exploring bulk HTSC in the bilayer nickelates.

Understanding how elemental abundances evolve during solar flares helps shed light on the mass and energy transfer between different solar atmospheric layers. However, prior studies have mostly concentrated on averaged abundances or specific flare phases, leaving a gap in exploring the comprehensive observations throughout the entire flare process. Consequently, investigations into this area are relatively scarce. Exploiting the Solar X-ray Monitor data obtained from the Chang'E-2 lunar orbiter, we present two comprehensive soft X-ray spectroscopic observations of flares in active regions, AR 11149 and 11158, demonstrating elemental abundance evolutions under different conditions. Our findings unveil the inverse first ionization potential (IFIP) effect during flares for Fe for the first time, and reaffirm its existence for Si. Additionally, we observed a rare depletion of elemental abundances, marking the second IFIP effect in flare decay phases. Our study offers a CSHKP model-based interpretation to elucidate the formation of both the FIP and IFIP effects in flare dynamics, with the inertia effect being incorporated into the ponderomotive force fractionation model., Comment: Accepted ApJ

In this paper, we study the large time behavior and sharp interface limit of the Cauchy problem for compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system with interaction shock waves in the same family. This system is an important mathematical model for describing the motion of immiscible two-phase flow. The results show that, if the initial density and velocity are near the superposition of two shock waves in the same family, then there exists a unique global solution to the compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system, and this solution asymptotically converges to the superposition of the viscous shock wave and rarefaction wave which moving in opposite directions. Moreover, this global-in-time solution converges to the entropy solution of $p$-system in $L^\infty$-norm as the thickness of the diffusion interface tends to zero., Comment: 41pages, 2 figures

Statistics - Methodology ,Statistics - Applications - Abstract
Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and Likelihood Ratio Test (LRT) are widely used methods for estimating the transition probability matrix in Markov chains and identifying significant relationships between transitions, such as equality. However, the estimated transition probability matrix derived from MLE lacks accuracy compared to the real one, and LRT is inefficient in high-dimensional Markov chains. In this study, we extended the adaptive Lasso technique from linear models to Markov chains and proposed a novel model by applying penalized maximum likelihood estimation to optimize the estimation of the transition probability matrix. Meanwhile, we demonstrated that the new model enjoys oracle properties, which means the estimated transition probability matrix has the same performance as the real one when given. Simulations show that our new method behave very well overall in comparison with various competitors. Real data analysis further convince the value of our proposed method.

Traditional survival analysis methods often struggle with complex time-dependent data,failing to capture and interpret dynamic characteristics adequately.This study aims to evaluate the performance of three long-sequence models,LSTM,Transformer,and Mamba,in analyzing recurrence event data and integrating them with the Cox proportional hazards model.This study integrates the advantages of deep learning models for handling long-sequence data with the Cox proportional hazards model to enhance the performance in analyzing recurrent events with dynamic time information.Additionally,this study compares the ability of different models to extract and utilize features from time-dependent clinical recurrence data.The LSTM-Cox model outperformed both the Transformer-Cox and Mamba-Cox models in prediction accuracy and model fit,achieving a Concordance index of up to 0.90 on the test set.Significant predictors of bladder cancer recurrence,such as treatment stop time,maximum tumor size at recurrence and recurrence frequency,were identified.The LSTM-Cox model aligned well with clinical outcomes,effectively distinguishing between high-risk and low-risk patient groups.This study demonstrates that the LSTM-Cox model is a robust and efficient method for recurrent data analysis and feature extraction,surpassing newer models like Transformer and Mamba.It offers a practical approach for integrating deep learning technologies into clinical risk prediction systems,thereby improving patient management and treatment outcomes.

High Energy Physics - Experiment ,High Energy Physics - Phenomenology - Abstract
We explore the bound neutrons decay into invisible particles (e.g., $n\rightarrow 3 \nu$ or $nn \rightarrow 2 \nu$) in the JUNO liquid scintillator detector. The invisible decay includes two decay modes: $ n \rightarrow { inv} $ and $ nn \rightarrow { inv} $. The invisible decays of $s$-shell neutrons in $^{12}{\rm C}$ will leave a highly excited residual nucleus. Subsequently, some de-excitation modes of the excited residual nuclei can produce a time- and space-correlated triple coincidence signal in the JUNO detector. Based on a full Monte Carlo simulation informed with the latest available data, we estimate all backgrounds, including inverse beta decay events of the reactor antineutrino $\bar{\nu}_e$, natural radioactivity, cosmogenic isotopes and neutral current interactions of atmospheric neutrinos. Pulse shape discrimination and multivariate analysis techniques are employed to further suppress backgrounds. With two years of exposure, JUNO is expected to give an order of magnitude improvement compared to the current best limits. After 10 years of data taking, the JUNO expected sensitivities at a 90% confidence level are $\tau/B( n \rightarrow { inv} ) > 5.0 \times 10^{31} \, {\rm yr}$ and $\tau/B( nn \rightarrow { inv} ) > 1.4 \times 10^{32} \, {\rm yr}$., Comment: 28 pages, 7 figures, 4 tables

Physics - Applied Physics - Abstract
Improving the heat transfer coefficient is crucial across various energy utilization processes for maintaining device safety and stability with high energy efficiency. However, in scenarios with limited heat capacity flow rates, increasing the thermal conductivity of encapsulated internal heat source (IHS) packaging can paradoxically impede heat transfer. Herein, we introduced a convective-meta thermal dispersion (CMTD) strategy applicable throughout the energy domain. By integrating low thermal conductivity materials into high thermal conductivity package structures, we disrupted tangential heat flow while preserving efficient radial heat transport. Through this approach, a notable reduction in tangential temperature within the fluid channel was achieved, effectively lowering the IHS temperature. Remarkably, this cooling mechanism does not need additional energy input, thermal property enhancements, or expanded heat transfer areas, which are often prerequisites in existing technologies. Moreover, spontaneous enhancement phenomena emerged under constrained heat transfer conditions, termed self-adaptive cooling enhancement. Our investigations revealed, under steady-state conditions, a maximum 24.5% decrease in IHS average temperature, while transient conditions exhibited a maximum 32.3% increase in heat transfer between the IHS and cooling fluid, validating the efficacy of the CMTD strategy. These findings offer a promising pathway for efficient thermal management in various thermal energy utilization fields with high power density such as nuclear fission and fusion and contributed to a deeper understanding of fundamental fluid-solid heat transfer mechanisms across the energy science.

High Energy Physics - Experiment - Abstract
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) provides a unique probe for neutrino properties Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics. REactor neutrino LIquid xenon Coherent Scattering experiment (RELICS), a proposed reactor neutrino program using liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXeTPC) technology, aims to investigate the CEvNS process of antineutrinos off xenon atomic nuclei. In this work, the design of the experiment is studied and optimized based on Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. To achieve a sufficiently low energy threshold for CEvNS detection, an ionization-only analysis channel is adopted for RELICS. A high emission rate of delayed electrons after a big ionization signal is the major background, leading to an analysis threshold of 120 photo-electrons in the CEvNS search. The second largest background, nuclear recoils induced by cosmic-ray neutrons, is suppressed via a passive water shield. The physics potential of RELICS is explored with a 32 kg-yr exposure at a baseline of 25 m from a reactor core with a 3 GW thermal power. In an energy range of 120 to 240 PE, we expect 4902.4 CEvNS and 1318.4 background events. The sensitivity of RELICS to the weak mixing angle is investigated at a low momentum transfer. Our study shows that RELICS can further improve the constraints on the non-standard neutrino interaction (NSI) compared to the current best results.

Neurocognitive aging researchers are increasingly focused on the locus coeruleus, a neuromodulatory brainstem structure that degrades with age. With this rapid growth, the field will benefit from consensus regarding which magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) metrics of locus coeruleus structure are most sensitive to age and cognition. To address this need, the current study acquired magnetization transfer- and diffusion-weighted MRI images in younger and older adults who also completed a free recall memory task. Results revealed significantly larger differences between younger and older adults for maximum than average magnetization transfer-weighted contrast (MTC), axial than mean or radial single-tensor diffusivity (DTI), and free than restricted multi-compartment diffusion (NODDI) metrics in the locus coeruleus; with maximum MTC being the best predictor of age group. Age effects for all imaging modalities interacted with sex, with larger age group differences in males than females for MTC and NODDI metrics. Age group differences also varied across locus coeruleus subdivision for DTI and NODDI metrics, and across locus coeruleus hemispheres for MTC. Within older adults, however, there were no significant effects of age on MTC or DTI metrics, only an interaction between age and sex for free diffusion. Finally, independent of age and sex, higher restricted diffusion in the locus coeruleus was significantly related to better (lower) recall variability, but not mean recall. Whereas MTC has been widely used in the literature, our comparison between the average and maximum MTC metrics, inclusion of DTI and NODDI metrics, and breakdowns by locus coeruleus subdivision and hemisphere make important and novel contributions to our understanding of the aging of locus coeruleus structure.

Condensed Matter - Materials Science ,Physics - Data Analysis, Statistics and Probability - Abstract
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) operates in the event mode. Time-of-flight (TOF) information about each detected neutron is collected separately and saved as a descriptive entry in a database enabling unprecedented accuracy of the collected experimental data. Nevertheless, the common data processing pipeline still involves the binning of data to perform analysis and feature extraction. For weak reflections, improper binning leads to sparse histograms with low signal-to-noise ratios, rendering them uninformative. In this study, we propose the Bayesian approach for the identification of Bragg peaks in TOF diffraction data. The method is capable of adaptively handling the varying sampling rates found in different regions of the reciprocal space. Unlike histogram fitting methods, our approach focuses on estimating the true neutron flux function. We accomplish this by employing a profile fitting algorithm based on the event-level likelihood, along with a multiresolution histogram-level prior. By using this approach, we ensure that there is no loss of information due to data reduction in strong reflections and that the search space is appropriately restricted for weak reflections. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed model, we apply it to real experimental data collected at the TOPAZ single crystal diffractometer at SNS.

Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
The effects of chlorine (Cl) and zinc (Zn) co-doping on the electronic structure and optical properties of the zinc blende ({\gamma}) phase of copper iodide ({\gamma}-CuI) scintillator material are investigated by using first-principles density functional theory calculations. The band structure, density of states, dielectric function, absorption coefficients, and reflectivity were analyzed before and after doping. Results show co-doping significantly modifies the band structure, reduces the band gap, and generates impurity energy levels. Cl doping enhances absorption in the high energy region while reducing visible light absorption. Zn doping induces a redshift in absorption and n-type conductivity at high concentrations. With suitable co-doping ratios, the absorption coefficient and reflectivity of {\gamma}-CuI can be optimized in the visible range to improve scintillation light yield. The calculations provide guidance for co-doping {\gamma}-CuI scintillators to achieve superior detection performance. The n-type conductivity also makes doped {\gamma}-CuI promising for optoelectronic applications.

In this paper, a type of novel projection-based, time-segmented reduced order model (ROM) is proposed for dynamic fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems based upon the arbitrary Lagrangian--Eulerian (ALE)-finite element method (FEM) in a monolithic frame, where spatially, each variable is separated from others in terms of their attribution (fluid/structure), category (velocity/pressure) and component (horizontal/vertical) while temporally, the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) bases are constructed in some deliberately partitioned time segments tailored through extensive numerical trials. By the combination of spatial and temporal decompositions, the developed ROM approach enables prolonged simulations under prescribed accuracy thresholds. Numerical experiments are carried out to compare numerical performances of the proposed ROM with corresponding full-order model (FOM) by solving a two-dimensional FSI benchmark problem that involves a vibrating elastic beam in the fluid, where the performance of offline ROM on perturbed physical parameters in the online phase is investigated as well. Extensive numerical results demonstrate that the proposed ROM has a comparable accuracy to while much higher efficiency than the FOM. The developed ROM approach is dimension-independent and can be seamlessly extended to solve high dimensional FSI problems.

Mathematics - Numerical Analysis ,Physics - Fluid Dynamics - Abstract
We have developed an efficient and unconditionally energy-stable method for simulating droplet formation dynamics. Our approach involves a novel time-marching scheme based on the scalar auxiliary variable technique, specifically designed for solving the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes phase field model with variable density and viscosity. We have successfully applied this method to simulate droplet formation in scenarios where a Newtonian fluid is injected through a vertical tube into another immiscible Newtonian fluid. To tackle the challenges posed by nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions at the tube entrance, we have introduced additional nonlocal auxiliary variables and associated ordinary differential equations. These additions effectively eliminate the influence of boundary terms. Moreover, we have incorporated stabilization terms into the scheme to enhance its numerical effectiveness. Notably, our resulting scheme is fully decoupled, requiring the solution of only linear systems at each time step. We have also demonstrated the energy decaying property of the scheme, with suitable modifications. To assess the accuracy and stability of our algorithm, we have conducted extensive numerical simulations. Additionally, we have examined the dynamics of droplet formation and explored the impact of dimensionless parameters on the process. Overall, our work presents a refined method for simulating droplet formation dynamics, offering improved efficiency, energy stability, and accuracy.

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology - Abstract
The production of a Higgs boson in association with a top-antitop quark pair ($t\bar{t}H$) holds significant importance in directly probing the top-quark Yukawa coupling, which is related to various fundamental questions in high energy physics. This paper focuses on the calculation of two-loop amplitudes for $t\bar t H$ production at hadron colliders in the high-energy boosted limit. The calculation employs our recently developed mass-factorization formula. To validate the accuracy of our approximate methods, we compare our results for the one-loop amplitudes and the two-loop infrared poles with the exact calculations. We then provide predictions for the finite parts of the two-loop amplitudes. By combining the contributions from real emissions, our results can be utilized to compute the next-to-next-to-leading order differential cross sections for $t\bar t H$ production in the high-energy boosted limit., Comment: 34 pages, 8 figures and 6 tables
