Advances in the nested soft-collinear subtraction scheme

description: We discuss a path toward the generalisation of the nested soft-collinear subtraction scheme to arbitrary $2\rightarrow n$ processes. The scheme is designed to provide an efficient and process-independent procedure to extract and regulate infrared (IR) singularities arising from unresolved real radiation and combine them with explicit singularities in virtual corrections. The new approach is based on a reorganisation of the relevant subtraction terms into simple combinations of a relatively small number of recurring structures. This strategy leads to a drastic reduction in the computational effort required to derive integrated subtraction terms, while preserving the full generality of the scheme. We believe that this approach will allow for tackling the issue of regularising IR divergences at next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant for arbitrary, multi-parton processes.

description: Multi-modal systems have the capacity of producing more reliable results than systems with a single modality in road detection due to perceiving different aspects of the scene. We focus on using raw sensor inputs instead of, as it is typically done in many SOTA works, leveraging architectures that require high pre-processing costs such as surface normals or dense depth predictions. By using raw sensor inputs, we aim to utilize a low-cost model thatminimizes both the pre-processing andmodel computation costs. This study presents a cost-effective and highly accurate solution for road segmentation by integrating data from multiple sensorswithin a multi-task learning architecture.Afusion architecture is proposed in which RGB and LiDAR depth images constitute the inputs of the network. Another contribution of this study is to use IMU/GNSS (inertial measurement unit/global navigation satellite system) inertial navigation system whose data is collected synchronously and calibrated with a LiDAR-camera to compute aggregated dense LiDAR depth images. It has been demonstrated by experiments on the KITTI dataset that the proposed method offers fast and high-performance solutions. We have also shown the performance of our method on Cityscapes where raw LiDAR data is not available. The segmentation results obtained for both full and half resolution images are competitive with existing methods. Therefore, we conclude that our method is not dependent only on raw LiDAR data; rather, it can be used with different sensor modalities. The inference times obtained in all experiments are very promising for real-time experiments.

description: Exotic mesons with hidden strange ($s\bar s$) and heavy quark pairs ($Q\bar Q$), where $Q=c,b$, are considered as diquark-antidiquark systems, $(Qs)(\bar Q\bar s)$. Taking into account that these states can recombinate into two-meson ones, we study the interplay of these states in terms of the dispersion relation D-function technique. The classification of exotic mesons is discussed, coefficients for decay modes are given, predictions for new states are presented. The nonet structure for $((Qq)(\bar Q \bar q)$, ($(Qs)(\bar Q\bar s$)), ($(Qq)(\bar Q\bar s))$- states ($q=u,d$) is suggested.

Ultra-low-energy straintronics using multiferroic composites

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper reviews the recent developments on building nanoelectronics for our future information processing paradigm using multiferroic composites. With appropriate choice of materials, when a tiny voltage of few tens of millivolts is applied across a multiferroic composite, i.e. a piezoelectric layer stain-coupled with a magnetostrictive layer, the piezoelectric layer gets strained and the generated stress in the magnetostrictive layer switches the magnetization direction between its two stable states. We particularly review the switching dynamics of magnetization and calculation of associated metrics like switching delay and energy dissipation. Such voltage-induced magnetization switching mechanism dissipates a minuscule amount of energy of only ~1 attojoule in sub-nanosecond switching delay at room-temperature. The performance metrics for such non-volatile straintronic devices make them very attractive for building not only memory devices but also building logic, so that they can be deemed suitable for computational purposes. Hence, multiferroic straintronics has profound promise of contributing to Beyond Moore's law technology, i.e. of being possible replacement of conventional charge-based electronics, which is reaching its performance limit specifically due to excessive energy dissipation.

description: Ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs), whose energy are beyond $10^{18}~\mathrm{eV}$, are the most energetic particles we have ever detected. The latest results seem to indicate a heavier composition at the highest energies, complicating the search for their origins. Due to the limited number of UHECR events, we need to build an instrument with an order of magnitude larger effective-exposure to collect UHECRs in future decades. The Fluorescence detector Array of Single-pixel Telescopes (FAST) is a proposed low-cost, easily deployable UHECR detector suitable for a future ground array. It is essential to validate the telescope design and autonomous observational techniques using prototypes located in both hemispheres. Here we report on the current status of observations, recent performance results of prototypes, and developments towards a future mini-array.

description: We study an inhomogeneous generalization of the classical corner growth in which the weights are exponentially distributed with random parameters. Our main interest is in the quenched and annealed large deviation properties of the last passage times. We derive variational representations of the rate functions for right tail large deviations. The quenched rate function can be computed explicitly for certain choices of the parameter distributions. We present a mechanism for rate n left tail annealed large deviations. In the quenched model these deviations have rate strictly greater than n. The annealed right tail rate function is connected to the quenched rate function through a variational problem involving relative entropy. We identify the speed at which the rate functions decay to zero near the shape function.

Charmonium Production with QGP and Hadron Gas Effects at SPS and FAIR

description: The production of charmonium in heavy-ion collisions is investigated based on Boltzmann-type transport model for charmonium evolution and langevin equation for charm quark evolution. Charmonium suppression and regeneration in both quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and hadron phase are considered. Charm quarks are far from thermalization, and regeneration of charmonium in QGP and hadron gas is neglectable at SPS and FAIR. At peripheral collisions, charmonium suppression with hadron gas explains the experimental data well. But at central collisions, additional suppression from deconfined matter (QGP) is necessary for the data. This means there should be QGP produced at central collisions, and no QGP produced at peripheral collisions at SPS energy. Predictions are also made at FAIR $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=7.7$ GeV Au+Au collisions.

description: The Fluorescence detector Array of Single-pixel Telescopes (FAST) is one of several proposed designs for a next-generation cosmic-ray detector. Such detectors will require enormous collecting areas whilst also needing to remain cost-efficient. To meet these demands, the FAST collaboration has designed a simplified, low-cost fluorescence telescope consisting of only four photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). Since standard air shower reconstruction techniques cannot be used with so few PMTs, FAST utilises an alternative two-step approach. In the first step, a neural network is used to provide a first estimate of the true shower parameters. This estimate is then used as the initial guess in a minimisation procedure where the measured PMT traces are compared to simulated ones, and the best-fit shower parameters are found. A detailed explanation of these steps is given, with the expected performance of FAST prototypes at the Telescope Array experiment acting as a demonstration of the technique.

Escenas de  cacería de  ciervos o  de  bisontes, ataques de  osos, manadas de  caballos salvajes o  domésticos,  conjuntos de  manos humanas en  positivo y  en  negativo, etc.,  tienden a interpretarse como descripciones del entorno inmediato de la gente que vivió en Europa entre hace 40000 y 13 000 años. Hasta cierto punto da la impresión de que se trataba de una especie de manuales de instrucciones para sobrevivir en la Era del Hielo. De hecho, en algunos casos, representaciones realistas como las de los bisontes de la cueva de Altamira, o la del ciervo herido con lanzas dibujado en la cueva de la Peña de Candamo, –ambas cuevas en España– o la del bisonte persiguiendo a un humano en la Roc de Sers, en Francia, parecerían respaldar tales ideas. Pero estas hipótesis no explican por qué comienzan a aparecer este tipo de expresiones artísticas de repente en la historia dela  humanidad y,  mucho menos, por  qué  aparecen otras muchas más de índole, aparente o evidentemente, sobrenatural.
Asymmetric evolutionary games

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Populations and Evolution (q-bio.PE)

description: Evolutionary game theory is a powerful framework for studying evolution in populations of interacting individuals. A common assumption in evolutionary game theory is that interactions are symmetric, which means that the players are distinguished by only their strategies. In nature, however, the microscopic interactions between players are nearly always asymmetric due to environmental effects, differing baseline characteristics, and other possible sources of heterogeneity. To model these phenomena, we introduce into evolutionary game theory two broad classes of asymmetric interactions: ecological and genotypic. Ecological asymmetry results from variation in the environments of the players, while genotypic asymmetry is a consequence of the players having differing baseline genotypes. We develop a theory of these forms of asymmetry for games in structured populations and use the classical social dilemmas, the Prisoner's Dilemma and the Snowdrift Game, for illustrations. Interestingly, asymmetric games reveal essential differences between models of genetic evolution based on reproduction and models of cultural evolution based on imitation that are not apparent in symmetric games.

description: Disposal of waste-activated sludge [dairy processing sludge, (DPS)] from wastewater treatment plants located in milk processing companies is an increasing concern. DPS is usually applied to farmlands in the vicinity of the dairy companies. This practice is becoming unsustainable due to uncontrolled nutrient loss and potential soil contamination. We propose to recover nutrients in the form of biochar. This paper examines the properties of biochars obtained from slow pyrolysis of DPS. DPS samples were pyrolyzed at laboratory and pilot scale at 600 and 700 °C. The elemental properties of biochars, the content of primary and secondary nutrients, as well as contaminants were examined and compared against the European Union Fertilizing Products Regulation. The biochars meet the specified limits for hydrogen-to-organic carbon ratio, chloride, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons intended for gasification and pyrolysis component category materials. In six out of eight biochars, the content of phosphorus (P) as a single declared nutrient and the level of contaminants meet those required for an organo-mineral fertilizer. Only two biochars meet the required concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. A minimum solid content of 30% in DPS is required to make the process of biochar production energetically sustainable

description: This paper investigates the relations between three different properties, which are of importance in optimal control problems: dissipativity of the underlying dynamics with respect to a specific supply rate, optimal operation at steady state, and the turnpike property. We show in a continuous-time setting that if along optimal trajectories a strict dissipation inequality is satisfied, then this implies optimal operation at this steady state and the existence of a turnpike at the same steady state. Finally, we establish novel converse turnpike results, i.e., we show that the existence of a turnpike at a steady state implies optimal operation at this steady state and dissipativity with respect to this steady state. We draw upon a numerical example to illustrate our findings.

description: Given a joint probability density function of $N$ real random variables, $\{x_j\}_{j=1}^{N},$ obtained from the eigenvector-eigenvalue decomposition of $N\times N$ random matrices, one constructs a random variable, the linear statistics, defined by the sum of smooth functions evaluated at the eigenvalues or singular values of the random matrix, namely, $\sum_{j=1}^{N}F(x_j).$ For the jpdfs obtained from the Gaussian and Laguerre ensembles, we compute, in this paper the moment generating function $\mathbb{E}_β({\rm exp}(-λ\sum_{j}F(x_j))),$ where $\mathbb{E}_β$ denotes expectation value over the Orthogonal ($β=1$) and Symplectic ($β=4)$ ensembles, in the form one plus a Schwartz function, none vanishing over $\mathbb{R}$ for the Gaussian ensembles and $\mathbb{R}^+$ for the Laguerre ensembles. These are ultimately expressed in the form of the determinants of identity plus a scalar operator, from which we obtained the large $N$ asymptotic of the linear statistics from suitably scaled $F(\cdot).$

description: We selected the claim that all three subsidy levels lead to a large and significant increase in ACT (artemisinin combination therapies) access. This reflects the following statement from the paper’s abstract: “We show that a very high subsidy (such as the one under consideration by the international community) dramatically increases access, but nearly one-half of subsidized pills go to patients with-out malaria.” The authors study impacts on ACT access (as well as other measures of treatment-seeking behavior) by presenting results from regression equation (2). The dependent variable is “Took ACT”. The focal independent variable is “Any ACT subsidy”. Panel A of Table 2 presents a specification where all three ACT subsidies are pooled and compare outcomes to the control group. Column 1 of Table 2 reports results on overall ACT access. The coefficient for “Any ACT subsidy” is 0.187 with robust standard errors clustered at the household level of 0.038, significant at the 1 percent level. The focal test in the original paper is: The coefficient for “Any ACT subsidy” is 0.187 with robust standard errors clustered at the household level of 0.038, significant at the 1 percent level.

description: A centrosymmetric stress cannot induce a polar response in centric materials, piezoelectricity is, for example, possible only in non-centrosymmetric structures. An exception is meta-materials with shape asymmetry, which may be polarized by stress even when the material is centric. In this case the mechanism is flexoelectricity, which relates polarization to a strain gradient. The flexoelectric response scales inversely with size, thus a large effect is expected in nanoscale materials. Recent experiments in polycrystalline, centrosymmetric perovskites [e.g., (Ba,Sr)TiO3] have indicated values of flexoelectric coefficients that are orders of magnitude higher than theoretically predicted, promising practical applications based on bulk materials. We show that materials with unexpectedly large flexoelectric response exhibit breaking of the macroscopic centric symmetry through inhomogeneity induced by the high temperature processing. The emerging electro-mechanical coupling is significant and may help to resolve the controversy surrounding the large apparent flexoelectric coefficients in this class of materials.

description: The application of pressure as well as the successive substitution of Ru with Fe in the hidden order (HO) compound URu$_2$Si$_2$ leads to the formation of the large moment antiferromagnetic phase (LMAFM). Here we have investigated the substitution series URu$_{2-x}$Fe$_x$Si$_2$ from $x$\,=\,0.0 to 2.0 by U\,4$f$ core-level photoelectron spectroscopy and have observed non-monotonic changes in the spectra. The initial increase and subsequent decrease of the spectral weight of the 4$f$ core level satellite with increasing $x$ stands for a non-monotonic 5$f$ filling across the substitution series. The competition of chemical pressure and increase of the density of states at the Fermi energy, both due to substitution of Ru with Fe, can explain such a behavior. An extended Doniach phase diagram including the $x$ dependence of the density of states is proposed. Also in URu$_{2-x}$Fe$_x$Si$_2$ the ground state is a singlet or quasi-doublet state consisting of two singlets. Hence, the formation of magnetic order in the URu$_{2-x}$Fe$_x$Si$_2$ substitution series must be explained within a singlet magnetism model.

description: Ability to understand and model the performance limits of nanowire transistors is the key to design of next generation devices. Here, we report studies on high-mobility junction-less gate-all-around nanowire field effect transistor with carrier mobility reaching 2000 cm2/V.s at room temperature. Temperature-dependent transport measurements reveal activated transport at low temperatures due to surface donors, while at room temperature the transport shows a diffusive behavior. From the conductivity data, the extracted value of sound velocity in InAs nanowires is found to be an order less than the bulk. This low sound velocity is attributed to the extended crystal defects that ubiquitously appear in these nanowires. Analyzing the temperature-dependent mobility data, we identify the key scattering mechanisms limiting the carrier transport in these nanowires. Finally, using these scattering models, we perform drift-diffusion based transport simulations of a nanowire field-effect transistor and compare the device performances with experimental measurements. Our device modeling provides insight into performance limits of InAs nanowire transistors and can be used as a predictive methodology for nanowire-based integrated circuits.

description: The (111) facet of magnetite (Fe$_3$O$_4$) has been studied extensively by experimental and theoretical methods, but controversy remains regarding the structure of its low-energy surface terminations. Using density functional theory (DFT) computations, we demonstrate three reconstructions that are more favorable than the accepted Fe$_{\rm oct2}$ termination in reducing conditions. All three structures change the coordination of iron in the kagome Fe$_{\rm oct1}$ layer to tetrahedral. With atomically-resolved microscopy techniques, we show that the termination that coexists with the Fe$_{\rm tet1}$ termination consists of tetrahedral iron capped by three-fold coordinated oxygen atoms. This structure explains the inert nature of the reduced patches.

description: We present studies for optimizing the next generation of ground-based imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs). Results focus on mid-sized telescopes (MSTs) for CTA, detecting very high energy gamma rays in the energy range from a few hundred GeV to a few tens of TeV. We describe a novel, flexible detector Monte Carlo package, FAST (FAst Simulation for imaging air cherenkov Telescopes), that we use to simulate different array and telescope designs. The simulation is somewhat simplified to allow for efficient exploration over a large telescope design parameter space. We investigate a wide range of telescope performance parameters including optical resolution, camera pixel size, and light collection area. In order to ensure a comparison of the arrays at their maximum sensitivity, we analyze the simulations with the most sensitive techniques used in the field, such as maximum likelihood template reconstruction and boosted decision trees for background rejection. Choosing telescope design parameters representative of the proposed Davies-Cotton (DC) and Schwarzchild-Couder (SC) MST designs, we compare the performance of the arrays by examining the gamma-ray angular resolution and differential point-source sensitivity. We further investigate the array performance under a wide range of conditions, determining the impact of the number of telescopes, telescope separation, night sky background, and geomagnetic field. We find a 30-40% improvement in the gamma-ray angular resolution at all energies when comparing arrays with an equal number of SC and DC telescopes, significantly enhancing point-source sensitivity in the MST energy range. We attribute the increase in point-source sensitivity to the improved optical point-spread function and smaller pixel size of the SC telescope design.

Human Milk Fortifiers and Their Role in Neonatal Nutrition
Creators: name: Saed, Reem

description: Breast milk is becoming widely recognized as the superior form of nutrition for infant feeding. When compared to formula, infants fed breast milk are less likely to have gastrointestinal complications, higher IQ, and positive long term effects such as reducing their rates of obesity and diabetes as adults ​(Chantry et al. 2015)​. However, breast milk was never made to replace a placenta and for premature infants, they will need a more complex diet to ensure their adequate growth and development. In this regard, human milk fortifiers have revolutionized neonatal nutrition. However, there is still debate on the clinical outcomes in amplifying the nutrients in breast milk when combined with human-based milk fortifier (HBF), or bovine-based milk fortifier (BBF), and whether or not an exclusively human milk diet has positive effects on infant health.

description: Rechargeable graphite dual-ion batteries are extremely appealing for grid-level stationary storage of electricity, thanks to the low-cost and high-performance metrics, such as high-power density, energy efficiency, long cycling life, and good energy density. An in-depth understanding of the anion intercalation mechanism in graphite is fundamental for the design of highly efficient systems. In this work, a comparison is presented between pyrolytic (PG) and natural (NG) graphite as positive electrode materials in rechargeable aluminum batteries, employing an ionic liquid electrolyte. The two systems are characterized by operando synchrotron energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction and time-resolved computed tomography simultaneously, establishing a powerful characterization methodology, which can also be applied more in general to carbon-based energy-related materials. A more in-depth insight into the AlCl4−/graphite intercalation mechanism is obtained, evidencing a mixed-staged region in the initial phase and a two-staged region in the second phase. Moreover, strain analysis suggests a correlation between the irreversibility of the PG electrode and the increase of the inhomogenous strain. Finally, the imaging analysis reveals the influence of graphite morphology in the electrode volume expansion upon cycling.
