Symmetry-based selection rules for higher-order interactions in coupled oscillators

Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pairwise interactions among general nonlinear oscillators can be reduced, via phase reduction, to a Kuramoto-type phase coupling $\sin(- \theta_j+\theta_k )$. For higher-order interactions, multiple phase couplings exist -- such as $\sin(-2\theta_j+\theta_k+\theta_l )$ and $\sin(-\theta_j+2\theta_k-\theta_l)$. Since different nonpairwise coupling functions produce qualitatively different dynamics, it is important to understand which phase couplings should be...

There Is Already a Word for the Deep Moral Failures of AI

For the past few years, I’ve been troubled by a word, and that word is sin. I keep reaching for it, because it seems to be the only term strong enough to describe the new forms of dehumanization that artificial intelligence has introduced—even though calling something a sin sounds embarrassing to me, like throwing salt over your shoulder or stowing a lucky penny in your pocket. The problem is, I don’t know what else to call it when companies market digital girlfriends to the heartsick and young.

Decoupling T Cell Cytotoxicity: A CCL21+ICAM1-Based Synthetic Immune Niche Enhances Tumor Elimination by Accelerating Lytic Hit Delivery

Preserving T cell cytotoxic function during ex vivo expansion remains a major challenge for adoptive cancer immunotherapy. A synthetic immune niche (SIN) composed of immobilized CCL21 and ICAM1 was shown to improve T cell expansion while preserving cytotoxicity; however, it remains unclear which specific step of the T cell killing process is enhanced by the SIN stimulation. Here, we combined advanced imaging based on time-lapse microscopy with a mean-field model to analyze the distinct...

Physics of Dipole and Quadrupole Brewster Angles in Thin Films

Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Brewster angle is a well-known-phenomenon that describes the angle at which the intensity of reflection of p-polarized light is zero for a single dielectric interface. We investigate the angle dependent reflection in a simple SiN thin film, with thickness in the hundreds of nanometres, a common thickness used in optical waveguides, Fabry-Perot resonators, sensors and lasers. We describe the reflection of our SiN thin film in terms of electric and magnetic...

If TMC splits, speaker's role key in recognising 'real party'

As Trinamool Congress stares at its biggest crisis with a faction claiming the support of 58 of 80 MLAs, the role of the West Bengal assembly speaker will be decisive in recognising one camp as the "original party" - as happened in the case of Shiv Sena in Maharashtra. The Constitution's Tenth Schedule bars the "constitutional sin" of defection. After the deletion of 'Paragraph 3' from the schedule in 2003, the defence of 'split' is no longer available to members facing disqualification...
