Summary: Dependencies between variables can be complex and may differ for high and low values. Using the normal copula to describe dependencies may not be appropriate due to the asymmetry of the normal distribution for high values. This study presents a new method for defining high dimensional multivariate distributions with changing correlations and tail dependence. Examples using linear changing correlations are provided, and parameter estimation methods and simulation procedures are discussed.

Summary: This study calculates the neutron-nucleus scattering data of the 40Ca nucleus and obtains a suitable isospin-dependent dispersive optical model potential. This potential can well describe the neutron-nucleus scattering data of the 40Ca nucleus and exhibits a typical dispersive hump behavior.

Summary: Nucleon scattering on tungsten and neighboring nuclei was analyzed using a coupled-channels method based on a soft-rotator structure model. A regionally consistent dispersive coupled-channels optical-model potential was derived, showing excellent agreement with experimental measurements and confirming the effectiveness of the model.

Summary: Understanding the EMC effect and its relation to short-range nucleon-nucleon correlations (SRC) in nuclei is a major challenge in modern nuclear physics. It has been shown that the SRC is responsible for the EMC effect and the modification of the partonic structure of the SRC is the same in different nuclei. However, the flavor dependence of the universality is still an unanswered question. This paper discusses an alternative possibility to study the universality for heavy flavors using nuclear semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (nSIDIS).

Summary: The study investigates the nucleon momentum distribution of Fe-56 using the axially deformed relativistic mean-field model and introduces the effects of nucleon-nucleon correlations based on phenomenological models. The research shows that the NMD is affected by both deformation and NN correlation effects in different momentum regions, and analyzes the relativistic effects on nuclear structures.

Summary: The process of renormalization in nonperturbative Hamiltonian effective field theory (HEFT) is examined in the Delta-resonance scattering channel. HEFT provides a bridge between the infinite-volume scattering data of experiment and the finite-volume spectrum of energy eigenstates in lattice QCD, and examines the sensitivity of the finite-volume spectrum and state composition on the regulator.

Summary: We investigate the in-medium properties of pseudoscalar and vector mesons with the light-light and heavy-light quarks in a light-front quark model, using the in-medium quark properties computed by the quark-meson coupling model. Both models are constructed on an equal footing with the constituent quark degree of freedom. Here, we particularly focus on the weak decay constants and distribution amplitudes (DAs) of the mesons in symmetric nuclear matter. We find that the weak decay constants decrease as nuclear density increases for & pi;, K, D, and B pseudoscalar as well as p, K*, D*, and B* vector mesons, where their properties in free space have good agreement with the available experimental and lattice QCD data. A larger reduction is found for the light-light quark pseudoscalar mesons, while a smaller reduction is found for the heavy-light quark vector mesons, in particular, with the bottom quark. We discuss the effect of the vector potential on the weak decay constants, and present our predictions for the in-medium modifications of DAs. Also, a comparison with the free space lattice QCD data is made.

Summary: There has been a growing interest in two-nucleon decays, and this study focuses on the decay dynamics and properties of extreme proton-rich and neutron-rich oxygen isotopes. The results show that the energy and angular correlations of the emitted nucleons can provide insights into the structure of nucleonic pairs inside the nucleus. The study also highlights the significant impact of low-l components of wave functions and the changes in asymptotic correlations as the decay energy approaches the threshold.

Summary: In this study, a short-range potential was incorporated into an extended quantum molecular dynamics model. The properties of 12C, such as rms radius, binding energy, and momentum distribution, were examined with different initial structures and short-range potential parameters. The modified EQMD model was found to be reliable for studying proton pair knock-out reactions. Additionally, the effects of short-range correlation on emission time and momentum spectrum of two protons were discussed.

Summary: The study investigates the evolution of quadrupole and octupole collectivity and their coupling in a series of even-even isotopes of actinides. The results suggest a systematic transition from nearly spherical to stable octupole-deformed, and to octupole vibrational states in the actinide region.

Summary: This study presents a spherical cavity expansion solution to link soil constitutive behavior with engineering meanings such as foundation bearing capacity. The solution is derived based on a critical state constitutive model and validated through finite element analysis, demonstrating its reliability in representing mechanical behavior of sand. The proposed solution is shown to accurately predict resistance of cone penetration and ground movements associated with pipe bursting in sand, providing useful estimations for soil displacements caused by pipe bursting operation.

Summary: This study investigates octupole correlations in the low-energy collective states of neutron-rich nuclei using the interacting boson model. The potential-energy surfaces are obtained for nuclei with a neutron number N approximately equal to 56, and the strength parameters of the IBM Hamiltonian are determined. The results show that the negative-parity yrast bands with the lowest energy occur at N = 56 in each considered isotopic chain, and there are finite electric octupole transition rates between the lowest negative- and positive-parity ground-state bands.

Summary: This paper proposes a novel set of correlations for the drag, lift, and torque coefficients of non-spherical particles with irregular shapes. These correlations are suitable for intermediate Reynolds numbers and have wide applications. By fitting the results of Particle-Resolved Direct Numerical Simulations, the proposed expressions describe the coefficients in relation to particle Reynolds number and sphericity. These correlations are simple, easy to implement, and can be used in a Lagrangian stochastic framework to track irregular particles.

Summary: Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy was used to measure Pu-2(C2O4)(3)center dot 9H(2)O and its thermal decomposition product PuO2 in the shortwave infrared spectral region. The PuO2 samples produced at different calcination temperatures exhibited distinct spectral features, with sharper and more intense bands observed at higher temperatures. Principal component analysis of the spectra allowed for clear ranking and categorization of the PuO2 samples based on their calcination temperature, providing retrospective information about the production process.

Summary: Ultra-low-level measurements of radionuclides in air were conducted at the Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) to determine the atmospheric concentration of fission products released following the Fukushima Daiichi reactor accident. Air filter samples were acquired from two collection systems to monitor airborne radionuclide concentrations. The study provided a unique opportunity to demonstrate SRNL's technology in environmental monitoring and test their systems for monitoring environmental radioactivity.
