[Abridged] Over the past two decades observations and theoretical simulations have established a global frame-work of galaxy formation and evolution in the young Universe. Galaxies formed as baryonic gas cooled at the centres of collapsing dark matter halos. Mergers of halos led to the build up of galaxy mass. A major step forward in understanding these issues requires well resolved physical information on individual galaxies at high redshift. Here we report adaptive optics, spectroscopic observations of a representative luminous star forming galaxy when the Universe was only twenty percent of its age. The superior angular resolution of these data reveals the physical and dynamical properties of a high redshift galaxy in unprecedented detail. A large and massive rotating proto-disk is channelling gas towards a growing central stellar bulge hosting an accreting massive black hole.
We define the algebraic fundamental group functor of a reductive group scheme over an arbitrary (non-empty) base scheme and prove that this functor is exact.
Recently, it has been shown by Balasubramanian et al. and Myers et al. that the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula evaluated on certain closed surfaces in the bulk of a holographic spacetime has an interpretation as the differential entropy of a particular family of intervals (or strips) in the boundary theory. We first extend this construction to bulk surfaces which vary in time. We then give a general proof of the equality between the gravitational entropy and the differential entropy. This proof applies to a broad class of holographic backgrounds possessing a generalized planar symmetry and to certain classes of higher-curvature theories of gravity. To apply this theorem, one can begin with a bulk surface and determine the appropriate family of boundary intervals by considering extremal surfaces tangent to the given surface in the bulk. Alternatively, one can begin with a family of boundary intervals; as we show, the differential entropy then equals the gravitational entropy of a bulk surface that emerges from the intersection of the neighboring entanglement wedges, in a continuum limit.
In this paper we asymptotically count $d$-regular $k$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices, provided $k$ is fixed and $d=d(n)=o(n^{1/2})$. In doing so, we extend to hypergraphs a switching technique of McKay and Wormald.
Recent observations of neutral Galactic interstellar medium showed that filamentary structures of HI clouds are aligned with the interstellar magnetic field. Many interesting applications are proposed based on the alignment such as measurement of magnetic field strength through the Chandrasekhar-Fermi method and removal of polarized foreground dust emissions for the detection of inflationary polarized emission in the cosmic microwave background radiation. However, the physical origin of the alignment remains to be explained. To understand the alignment mechanism, we examine formation of HI clouds triggered by shock compression of diffuse warm neutral medium using three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations with the effects of optically thin cooling and heating. We show that the shock-compressed diffuse interstellar medium of density n~1 cm^-3 evolves into HI clouds with typical density n~50 cm^-3 via thermal instability driven by cooling, which is consistent with previous studies. We apply a machine vision transformation developed by Clark et al.(2014) to the resulting column density structures obtained by the simulations in order to measure angle correlation between filamentary structures of HI clouds and magnetic field. We find that the orientation of HI filaments depends on the environmental turbulent velocity field, particularly on the strength of shear strain in the direction of the magnetic field, which is controlled by the angle between the shock propagation direction and upstream magnetic field. When the strain along the magnetic field is weak, filamentary components of HI clouds basically lie perpendicular to the magnetic field. However, the filaments have come to align with the magnetic field, if we enhance the turbulent strain along the magnetic field or if we set turbulence in the preshock medium.
Inertial sensors are present in most mobile devices nowadays and such devices are used by people during most of their daily activities. In this paper, we present an approach for human activity recognition based on inertial sensors by employing recurrence plots (RP) and visual descriptors. The pipeline of the proposed approach is the following: compute RPs from sensor data, compute visual features from RPs and use them in a machine learning protocol. As RPs generate texture visual patterns, we transform the problem of sensor data classification to a problem of texture classification. Experiments for classifying human activities based on accelerometer data showed that the proposed approach obtains the highest accuracies, outperforming time- and frequency-domain features directly extracted from sensor data. The best results are obtained when using RGB RPs, in which each RGB channel corresponds to the RP of an independent accelerometer axis.
We find that Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) at the 3B catalog are correlated (at 95\% confidence level) with Abell clusters. This is the first known correlation of GRBs with any other astronomical population. It confirms the cosmological origin of GRBs. Comparison of the rich clusters auto-correlation with the cross-correlation found here suggests that \sim 26 \pm 15\% of an accurate (\delta<2.3 deg.) position GRBs sub-sample members are located within 600 \hmpc.
We consider the definition of the global vacuum state of a quantum scalar field on $n$-dimensional anti-de Sitter space-time as seen by an observer rotating about the polar axis. Since positive (or negative) frequency scalar field modes must have positive (or negative) Klein-Gordon norm respectively, we find that the only sensible choice of positive frequency corresponds to positive frequency as seen by a static observer. This means that the global rotating vacuum is identical to the global nonrotating vacuum. For $n\ge 4$, if the angular velocity of the rotating observer is smaller than the inverse of the anti-de Sitter radius of curvature, then modes with positive Klein-Gordon norm also have positive frequency as seen by the rotating observer.We comment on the implications of this result for the construction of global rotating thermal states.
Cluster radioactivity is the emission of a fragment heavier than $\alpha$ particle and lighter than mass 50. The range of clusters observed in experiments goes from $^{14}$C to $^{32}$Si while the heavy mass residue is always a nucleus in the neighborhood of the doubly-magic $^{208}$Pb nucleus. Cluster radioactivity is described in this paper as a very asymmetric nuclear fission. A new fission valley leading to a decay with large fragment mass asymmetry matching the cluster radioactivity products is found. The mass octupole moment is found to be more convenient than the standard quadrupole moment as the parameter driving the system to fission. The mean-field HFB theory with the phenomenological Gogny interaction has been used to compute the cluster emission properties of a wide range of even-even actinide nuclei from $^{222}$Ra to $^{242}$Cm, where emission of the clusters has been experimentally observed. Computed half-lives for cluster emission are compared with experimental results. The noticeable agreement obtained between the predicted properties of cluster emission (namely, clusters masses and emission half-lives) and the measured data confirms the validity of the proposed methodology in the analysis of the phenomenon of cluster radioactivity. A continuous fission path through the scission point has been described using the neck parameter constraint.
Rather than an a priori arena in which events take place, space-time is a construction of our mind making possible a particular kind of ordering of events. As quantum entanglement is a property of states independent of classical distances, the notion of space and time has to be revised to represent the holistic interconnection of quanta. We also speculate about various forms of reprogramming, or reconfiguring, the propagation of information for multipartite statistics and in quantum field theory.
We report the observation of Coulomb blockade in a quantum dot contacted by two quantum point contacts each with a single fully-transmitting mode, a system previously thought to be well described without invoking Coulomb interactions. At temperatures below 50 mK we observe a periodic oscillation in the conductance of the dot with gate voltage that corresponds to a residual quantization of charge. From the temperature and magnetic field dependence, we infer the oscillations are Mesoscopic Coulomb Blockade, a type of Coulomb blockade caused by electron interference in an otherwise open system.
We show that in the Anderson model for a two-dimensional non-Fermi liquid a magnetic instability can lead to the itinerant electron ferromagnetism. The critical temperature and the susceptibility of the paramagnetic phase have been analytically calculated. The usual Fermi behaviour is re-obtained taking the anomalous exponent to be zero.
Spin fluctuations in the triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet NaCrO$_2$ are investigated by means of quasi-elastic neutron scattering with high energy resolution and wide energy band. Two components with the following features are captured separately. They are pronounced at intermediate temperatures of 20-50 K. One with quite an extended lifetime corresponding to $\sim$$0.001E_{\rm ex}$ ($E_{\rm ex}$ the exchange energy) nearly disappears at low temperature 10 K, and the other with an extended lifetime $\sim$$0.01E_{\rm ex}$ survives there, identified as free $Z_2$ vortex and $Z_2$-vortex pair, respectively, in harmony with the $Z_2$ vortex theory.
Low momentum two-nucleon interactions obtained with the renormalization group method and the similarity renormalization group method are used to study the cutoff dependence of low energy 3N and 4N scattering observables. The residual cutoff dependence arises from omitted short-ranged 3N (and higher) forces that are induced by the renormalization group transformations, and may help to estimate the sensitivity of various 3N and 4N scattering observables to short-ranged many-body forces.
In supersymmetric models new sources of lepton flavour violation (LFV) may enhance the rates of charged lepton flavour violating processes, like mu to e gamma, and generate distinct final states at future colliders, e.g. tau mu + jets + missing energy. We discuss the role of chargino pair production for the LFV signals at e+e- colliders.
X-ray emission and absorption features are of great importance in our understanding the nature and environment of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). So far, iron emission lines have been detected in at least four GRB afterglows. In this paper, the observational properties and physical constraints on materials surrounding GRB sources are reviewed, and several classes of theoretical models are also discussed. We will specially concentrate on the Cerenkov line mechanism, in which the broad iron lines are expected, and a small mass of Fe is required to produce the large line luminosity. In addition, our interpretation can favor the recent jet unified model for different classes of gamma-ray bursts with a standard energy reservoir.
Let C be the curve y^2=x^6+1 of genus 2 over a field of characteristic zero. Consider C embedded in its Jacobian J by sending one of the points at infinity on C to the origin of J. In this brief note we show that the points of C whose image on J are torsion are precisely the two points at infinity and the six points with y=0.
We set up the singular initial value problem for quasilinear hyperbolic Fuchsian systems of first order and establish an existence and uniqueness theory for this problem with smooth data and smooth coefficients (and with even lower regularity). We apply this theory in order to show the existence of smooth (generally not analytic) T2-symmetric solutions to the vacuum Einstein equations, which exhibit AVTD (asymptotically velocity term dominated) behavior in the neighborhood of their singularities and are polarized or half-polarized.
We first discuss a large set of evolutionary calculations of close binaries with a B-type primary at birth and with a period such that the Roche lobe overflow starts during the core hydrogen burning phase of the primary (intermediate mass and massive case A binaries). The evolution of both components is followed simultaneously allowing us to check for the occurrence of contact binaries. We consider various models to treat a contact system and the influence of these models on the predicted Algol-type system population is investigated. We critically discuss the available observations of Algol-type binaries with a B-type primary at birth. Comparing these observations with the predictions allows us to put constraints on the contact star physics. We find that mass transfer in Algols is most probably not conservative, that contact during this phase does not necessarily lead to a merger, and that angular momentum loss must be moderate.
We examine substrate-to-film interfacial phonon drag on typical spin Seebeck heterostructures, in particular studying the effect of ferromagnetic magnons on the phonon-electron drag dynamics at the interface. We investigate with high precision the effect of magnons in the Pt|YIG heterostructure by designing a magnon drag thermocouple; a hybrid sample with both a Pt|YIG film and Pt|GGG interface accessible isothermally via a 6 nm Pt film patterned in a rectangular U shape with one arm on the 250 nm YIG film and the other on GGG. We measure the voltage between the isothermal ends of the U, while applying a temperature gradient parallel to the arms and perpendicular to the bottom connection. With a uniform applied temperature gradient, the Pt acts as a differential thermocouple. We conduct temperature-dependent longitudinal thermopower measurements on this sample. Results show that the YIG interface actually decreases the thermopower of the film, implying that magnons impede phonon drag. We repeat the experiment using metals with low spin Hall angles, Ag and Al, in place of Pt. We find that the phonon drag peak in thermopower is killed in samples where the metallic interface is with YIG. We also investigate magneto-thermopower and YIG film thickness dependence. These measurements confirm our findings that magnons impede the phonon-electron drag interaction at the metallic interface in these heterostructures.
Current models of the spectrum of X-rays reflected from accretion disks around black holes and other compact objects are commonly calculated assuming that the density of the disk atmosphere is constant within several Thomson depths from the irradiated surface. An important simplifying assumption of these models is that the ionization structure of the gas is completely specified by a single, fixed value of the ionization parameter $\xi$, which is the ratio of the incident flux to the gas density. The density is typically fixed at $n_e=10^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$. Motivated by observations, we consider higher densities in the calculation of the reflected spectrum. We show by computing model spectra for $n_e \gtrsim 10^{17}$ cm$^{-3}$ that high-density effects significantly modify reflection spectra. The main effect is to boost the thermal continuum at energies $\lesssim 2$ keV. We discuss the implications of these results for interpreting observations of both AGN and black hole binaries. We also discuss the limitations of our models imposed by the quality of the atomic data currently available.
The littlest Higgs model with T-parity, which is called $LHT$ model, predicts the existence of the new particles, such as heavy top quark, heavy gauge bosons, and mirror fermions. We calculate the one-loop contributions of these new particles to the top quark chromomagnetic dipole moment $(CMDM)$ $\Delta K$. We find that the contribution of the $LHT$ model is one order of magnitude smaller than the standard model prediction value.
In this paper we study the almost sure central limit theorem started from a point for additive functionals of a stationary and ergodic Markov chain via a martingale approximation in the almost sure sense. As a consequence we derive the quenched CLT for additive functionals or reversible Markov chains.
We use guiding principles from nonequilibrium thermodynamics to develop an admissible set of 13 moment equations for rarefied gas flows. The main benefits of our thermodynamic approach are an explicit entropy expression fulfilling an $H$ theorem and a sound Hamiltonian formulation of the reversible free flight transport. To calculate the entropy and to find explicit closure approximations, we propose a simple set of approximate 13 parameter solutions to Boltzmann's kinetic equation. We discuss how standard hydrodynamics is recovered as a limiting case.
We present the results of a FUSE survey of O VI 1031.93 Angstrom and 1037.62 Angstrom absorption toward 18 OB stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We detect O VI along every sight line. The average value of the O VI column density in the SMC is log <N(O VI)>=14.53. This value is 1.7 times higher than the average value for the Milky Way halo (perpendicular to the Galactic plane) of log N_perp(O VI)=14.29 found by FUSE, even though the SMC has much lower metallicity than the Galaxy. The column density in the SMC is higher along sight lines that lie close to star-forming regions, in particular NGC 346 in the northern part of the SMC. The standard deviation of the column densities for sight lines outside of NGC 346 is +/- 27%, somewhat lower than the deviation seen in the Milky Way halo. The lowest O VI column densities, log N(O VI)~14.3, occur in the central region and in the southeastern ``Wing'' of the galaxy. Even these low column densities are as high as the Milky Way average, establishing the presence of a substantial, extended component of coronal gas in the SMC. The O VI absorption is always shifted to higher velocities than the main component of lower ionization gas. The O VI line widths are broader than expected for pure thermal broadening. We discuss several mechanisms that may be able to explain the observed properties of the hot gas, including supershells, a galactic fountain, and the infall of gas previously stripped from the SMC by tidal interactions with the Milky Way and the Large Magellanic Cloud. If a fountain produces the hot gas, the mass flux per unit surface area is ~0.02 M_sun/yr/kpc2.
Direct observation of temperature dependence of individual bands of semiconductors for a wide temperature region is not straightforward, in particular. However, this fundamental property is a prerequisite in understanding the electron-phonon coupling of semiconductors. Here we apply \emph{ab initio} many body perturbation theory to the electron-phonon coupling on hexagonal silicon carbide (SiC) crystals and determine the temperature dependence of the bands. We find a significant electron-phonon renormalization of the band gap at 0~K. Both the conduction and valence bands shift at elevated temperatures exhibiting a different behavior. We compare our theoretical results with the observed thermal evolution of SiC band edges, and discuss our findings in the light of high temperature SiC electronics and defect qubits operation.
In this paper, we study the complexity factor of a static anisotropic sphere in the context of self-interacting Brans-Dicke theory. We split the Riemann tensor using Bel's approach to obtain structure scalars relating to comoving congruence and Tolman mass in the presence of a scalar field. We then define the complexity factor with the help of these scalars to demonstrate the complex nature of the system. We also evaluate the vanishing complexity condition to obtain solutions for two stellar models. It is concluded that the complexity of the system increases with the inclusion of the scalar field and potential function.
In the present paper we demonstrate the possibility of the [SUSY(5)]^3 SUSY unification at the energy scale $\mu_{GUT}\approx 10^{18.3} GeV$ with the value of GUT inverse finestructure constant $\alpha_{GUT}^{-1}\approx 34.4$, which is very close to its critical value $\alpha_{5, crit}^{-1}\approx 34.0$, existing at the Planck scale.
An extended XMM-Newton observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 has revealed a rich absorption line spectrum indicating the presence of a photoionized outflow with a wide range of velocities and ionization parameter. At low continuum fluxes an emission line spectrum is well defined with both narrow and broad components of several abundant metal ions. The absorption line velocity structure and a broad correlation of velocity and ionization parameter are consistent with an outflow scenario where a highly ionized, high velocity wind, perhaps launched during intermittent super-Eddington accretion, runs into the interstellar medium or previous ejecta, losing much of its kinetic energy in the resultant strong shock. We explore the possibility that a quasi-constant soft X-ray emission component may be evidence of this post-shock cooling. This revised view of AGN outflows is consistent with multiple minor Eddington accretion episodes creating a momentum-driven feedback linking black hole and host galaxy growth.
In this paper, we present a conditional generative adversarial network-based model for real-time underwater image enhancement. To supervise the adversarial training, we formulate an objective function that evaluates the perceptual image quality based on its global content, color, local texture, and style information. We also present EUVP, a large-scale dataset of a paired and unpaired collection of underwater images (of `poor' and `good' quality) that are captured using seven different cameras over various visibility conditions during oceanic explorations and human-robot collaborative experiments. In addition, we perform several qualitative and quantitative evaluations which suggest that the proposed model can learn to enhance underwater image quality from both paired and unpaired training. More importantly, the enhanced images provide improved performances of standard models for underwater object detection, human pose estimation, and saliency prediction. These results validate that it is suitable for real-time preprocessing in the autonomy pipeline by visually-guided underwater robots. The model and associated training pipelines are available at https://github.com/xahidbuffon/funie-gan.
In this paper, we propose FCHD-Fully Convolutional Head Detector, an end-to-end trainable head detection model. Our proposed architecture is a single fully convolutional network which is responsible for both bounding box prediction and classification. This makes our model lightweight with low inference time and memory requirements. Along with run-time, our model has better overall average precision (AP) which is achieved by selection of anchor sizes based on the effective receptive field of the network. This can be concluded from our experiments on several head detection datasets with varying head counts. We achieve an AP of 0.70 on a challenging head detection dataset which is comparable to some standard benchmarks. Along with this our model runs at 5 FPS on Nvidia Quadro M1000M for VGA resolution images. Code is available at https://github.com/aditya-vora/FCHD-Fully-Convolutional-Head-Detector.
We consider a sequence of systems of Hawkes processes having mean field interactions in a diffusive regime. The stochastic intensity of each process is a solution of a stochastic differential equation driven by N independent Poisson random measures. We show that, as the number of interacting components N tends to infinity, this intensity converges in distribution in Skorohod space to a CIR-type diffusion. Moreover, we prove the convergence in distribution of the Hawkes processes to the limit point process having the limit diffusion as intensity. To prove the convergence results, we use analytical technics based on the convergence of the associated infinitesimal generators and Markovian semigroups.
