Hawking radiation of extended objects by Johnson, G, March-Russell, J

“…We find that in the low-momentum regime, the power emitted is exponentially suppressed for sufficiently large radiated objects, or sufficiently small black holes, though the temperature of emission is unchanged. …”

Effects of resonant tunneling on intrinsic linewidth of quantum cascade lasers by Liu, T., Wang, Q. J.

“…The quantum Langevin analysis for QCLs show that coupling strength and dephasing rate strongly affect the linewidth of THz QCLs in incoherent resonant-tunneling transport regime, but induce insignificant influence for mid-infrared QCLs due to strong coupling.…”

1-in-3 vs. not-all-equal: dichotomy of a broken promise by Ciardo, L, Kozik, M, Krokhin, A, Nakajima, T-V, Živný, S

“…In the present work, we investigate this constraint satisfaction problem in a regime where the promise is weakened from either side by a rainbow-free structure, and establish a complexity dichotomy for the resulting class of computational problems.…”

Managing oil palm plantations more sustainably : large-scale experiments within the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function in Tropical Agriculture (BEFTA) Programme by Luke, Sarah H., Advento, Andreas Dwi, Aryawan, Anak Agung Ketut, Adhy, Dwi Nugroho, Ashton-Butt, Adham, Barclay, Holly, Dewi, Jassica Prajna, Drewer, Julia, Dumbrell, Alex J., Edi, Eycott, Amy E., Harianja, Martina F., Hinsch, Julie K., Hood, Amelia S.

GPU-based commonsense reasoning for real-time query answering and multimodal analysis by Tran, Ha Nguyen

“…Secondly, in order to reason and retrieve information on rule-based knowledge bases, the thesis introduces gSparql, a fast and scalable inference and querying method on mass-storage RDF data with rule-based entailment regimes. Our approach accepts different rulesets and executes the reasoning process at query time when the inferred triples are determined by the set of triple patterns defined in the query. …”

Cavity-length optimization for high energy pulse generation in a long cavity passively mode-locked all-fiber ring laser by Shum, Perry Ping, Wu, Kan, Wong, Jia Haur, Aditya, Sheel, Li, Nanxi, Xue, Jin, Ouyang, Chunmei

“…However, a long cavity operating in the anomalous dispersion regime also leads to pulse broadening, which reduces the average pulse power. …”

Natural resources and income inequality in Africa. by Charasz, Pawel.

“…However, the overall effect is dependent upon the political regime and level of population heterogeneity. Whereas natural resources themselves were on average contributing positively to income inequality, greater degree of democracy reduces this effect and greater level of population heterogeneity increases this effect.…”

Study of inertial hydrodynamic focusing in sheath-driven flows for lab-on-a-chip flow cytometry by Panwar, Nishtha, Song, Peiyi, Yong, Ken-Tye, Tjin, Swee Chuan

“…Most models predict the width of the focused sample stream based on hydrodynamic focusing in the low Reynolds number regime (Re << 1), where the viscous forces dominate the inertial forces. …”

Acceleration by Stepsize Hedging: Multi-Step Descent and the Silver Stepsize Schedule by Altschuler, Jason, Parrilo, Pablo

“…This leads to a phase transition in the convergence rate: initially super-exponential (acceleration regime), then exponential (saturation regime). The core algorithmic intuition is hedging between individually suboptimal strategiesÐshort steps and long stepsÐsince bad cases for the former are good cases for the latter, and vice versa. …”

BCC metals in extreme environments: modelling the structure and evolution of defects by Gilbert, M

“…We present results from large-scale finite temperature molecular dynamics simulations of screw dislocations under stress and observe the thermally-activated kink-pair formation regime at low stress, which appears to be superseded by a frictional regime at higher stresses. …”

Anti-suit injunctions – beyond comity by Dickinson, A

“…It examines, in particular, recent case law extending the reach of the European Union’s prohibition on anti-suit injunctions within the Brussels I regime, and the place of anti-suit injunctions within the framework of the Hague Choice of Court Convention.…”

Ending the Syrian conflict : foreign intervention or renewed political process? by Zulkifli Mohamed Sultan
