Price Gouging or Market Forces? Fairness Perceptions of Price Hikes in the Pandemic
We report the results of surveys we conducted in the US and Israel in 2020, a time when many prices increased following the spread of the pandemic. To assess respondents perceptions of price increases, we focus on goods whose prices have increased during the pandemic, including some essential goods. Consistent with the principle of dual entitlement, we find that respondents perceive price increases as more acceptable if they are due to cost shocks than if they are due to demand shocks. However,…

Direct numerical simulation of transition under free-stream turbulence and the influence of large integral length scales
Under action of free-stream turbulence (FST), elongated streamwise streaky structures are generated inside the boundary layer, and their amplitude and wavelength are crucial for the transition onset. While turbulence intensity is strongly correlated with the transitional Reynolds number, characteristic length scales of the FST are often considered to have a slight impact on the transition location. However, a recent experiment by Fransson & Shahinfar (2020} shows significant effects of FST scal…

In the paper, we revisit the uniform continuity properties of the data-to-solution map of the Camassa--Holm equation on the real-line case. We show that the data-to-solution map of the Camassa--Holm equation is not uniformly continuous on the initial data in Besov spaces $B_{p, r}^s(\mathbb{R})$ with $s>\frac{1}{2}$ and $1\leq p, r< \infty$, which improves the previous works [Himonas et al., Asian J.

The corona of a fully convective star with a near-polar flare
In 2020, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observed a rapidly rotating M7 dwarf, TIC 277539431, produce a flare at 81° latitude, the highest latitude flare located to date. This is in stark contrast to solar flares that occur much closer to the equator, typically below 30°. The mechanisms that allow flares at high latitudes to occur are poorly understood. We studied five Sectors of TESS monitoring, and obtained 36 ks of XMM-Newton observations to investigate the coronal and fla…

Abstract: Measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) can be used to probe the distribution and mass function of compact objects in the direction toward that galaxy - in the Milky Way disk, Milky Way dark matter halo, and the LMC itself. The previous measurements, based on small statistical samples of events, found that the optical depth is an order of magnitude smaller than that expected from the entire dark matter halo in the form of compact objects. However, these previous studies were not sensitive to long-duration events with Einstein timescales longer than 2.5-3 years, which are expected from massive ($10-100\,M_{\odot}$) and intermediate-mass ($10^2-10^5\,M_{\odot}$) black holes. Such events would have been missed by the previous studies and would not have been taken into account in calculations of the optical depth. Here, we present the analysis of nearly 20-year-long photometric monitoring of 78.7 million stars in the LMC by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) from 2001 through 2020. We describe the observing setup, the construction of the 20-year OGLE dataset, the methods used for searching for microlensing events in the light curve data, and the calculation of the event detection efficiency. In total, we find 16 microlensing events (thirteen using an automated pipeline and three with manual searches), all of which have timescales shorter than 1 yr. We use a sample of thirteen events to measure the microlensing optical depth toward the LMC $\tau=(0.121 \pm 0.037)\times 10^{-7}$ and the event rate $\Gamma=(0.74 \pm 0.25)\times 10^{-7}\,\mathrm{yr}^{-1}\,\mathrm{star}^{-1}$. These numbers are consistent with lensing by stars in the Milky Way disk and the LMC itself, and demonstrate that massive and intermediate-mass black holes cannot comprise a significant fraction of dark matter.

Information Complexity of Stochastic Convex Optimization: Applications to Generalization and Memorization
In this work, we investigate the interplay between memorization and learning in the context of \emph{stochastic convex optimization} (SCO). We define memorization via the information a learning algorithm reveals about its training data points. We then quantify this information using the framework of conditional mutual information (CMI) proposed by Steinke and Zakynthinou (2020). Our main result is a precise characterization of the tradeoff between the accuracy of a learning algorithm and its CM…

David Weiss Does Not Contest He Reneged on Hunter Biden's Plea Agreement to Chase Russian Lies - emptywheel
David Weiss is claiming one thing about the disposition of Alexander Smirnov's 2020 attempt to frame Joe Biden in Smirnov's prosecution and saying something totally different in attempts to withhold discovery on that from Hunter Biden. And the withheld documents go to the core of Weiss' decision to renege on a plea deal.

The Impact of School and Family Networks on COVID-19 Infections Among Dutch Students: A Study Using Population-Level Registry Data
Understanding the impact of different social interactions is key to improving epidemic models. Here, we use extensive registry data -- including PCR test results and population-level networks -- to investigate the impact of school, family, and other social contacts on SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the Netherlands (June 2020--October 2021). We isolate and compare different contexts of potential SARS-CoV-2 transmission by matching pairs of students based on their attendance at the same or different …

AI-Enabled Lung Cancer Prognosis
Lung cancer is the primary cause of cancer-related mortality, claiming approximately 1.79 million lives globally in 2020, with an estimated 2.21 million new cases diagnosed within the same period. Among these, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the predominant subtype, characterized by a notably bleak prognosis and low overall survival rate of approximately 25% over five years across all disease stages. However, survival outcomes vary considerably based on the stage at diagnosis and the ther…

Reports: Commanders to sign former first-round pick Noah Igbinoghene
The Washington Commanders are signing cornerback Noah Igbinoghene to a free agent deal, according to multiple reports Sunday. A first-round pick by the Dolphins in 2020, Igbinoghene will be playing for his third team. Miami traded him to the Dolphins last August, and he became a free agent at the end of the 2023 season. He becomes the fourth member of the Cowboys' 2023 roster to move to the rival Commanders since Washington hired Dan Quinn as head coach in February. Quinn was the defensive coor…

'We have to worry about physical violence': AZ elections chief preps for threats from MAGA
With the exception of 2020, Arizona's electoral votes have gone to Republican presidential candidates in every election since 2000. Now, with the swing state seen as a must-win in 2024, its elections officials are having to prepare for the possibility of political violence from election deniers.The ...

Variability in Aggregate Personal Income Across Industrial Sectors During COVID-19 Shock: A Time-Series Exploration
This study explored the variability in Aggregate Personal Income (PI) across 13 major industrial sectors in the US during the COVID-19 pandemic. Utilizing time-series data from 2010 Q1 to 2019 Q4, we employed Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models to establish baseline trends in Personal Income (PI) before the pandemic. We then extended these models to forecast PI values for the subsequent 14 quarters, from 2020 Q1 to 2023 Q2, as if the pandemic had never happened. This forecas…

Sunyaev-Zeldovich Signals from $L^*$ Galaxies: Observations, Analytics, and Simulations
We analyze measurements of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect arising in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of $L^*$ galaxies, reported by Bregman et al. 2022 and Das et al. 2023. In our analysis we use the Faerman et al. 2017 and Faerman et al. 2020 CGM models, a new power-law model (PLM), and the TNG100 simulation. For a given $M_{\rm vir}$, our PLM has four parameters; the fraction, $f_{\rm hCGM}$, of the halo baryon mass in hot CGM gas, the ratio, $ϕ_T$, of the actual gas temperature …
