description: We investigate the influence of Casimir and electrostatic torques on double beam torsional microelectromechanical systems with materials covering a broad range of conductivities of more than three orders of magnitude. For the frictionless autonomous systems, bifurcation and phase space analysis shows that there is a significant difference between stable and unstable operating regimes for equal and unequal applied voltages on both sides of the double torsional system giving rise to heteroclinic and homoclinic orbits, respectively. For equal applied voltages, only the position of a symmetric unstable saddle equilibrium point is dependent on the material optical properties and electrostatic effects, while in any other case there are stable and unstable equilibrium points are dependent on both factors. For the periodically driven system, a Melnikov function approach is used to show the presence of chaotic motion rendering predictions of whether stiction or stable actuation will take place over long times impossible. Chaotic behavior introduces significant risk for stiction, and it is more prominent to occur for the more conductive systems that experience stronger Casimir forces and torques. Indeed, when unequal voltages are applied, the sensitive dependence of chaotic motion on electrostatics is more pronounced for the highest conductivity systems.

Power Corrections to Flavour-Singlet Structure Functions

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the power-suppressed corrections to structure functions in flavour singlet deep inelastic lepton scattering, to complement the previous results for the non-singlet contribution. Our method is a dispersive approach based on an analysis of Feynman graphs containing massive gluons; and our results agree with those obtained from leading infrared renormalon contributions. As in non-singlet deep inelastic scattering we find that the leading corrections are proportional to 1/Q^2. We find that the singlet contribution becomes important at small x.

description: We provide some comments about the constraints on the inflationary models inferred from the two Swampland criteria which have been recently proposed. In particular we argue that, in the absence of any knowledge about the origin of the adiabatic curvature perturbations, within the slow-roll single field models of inflation there is no tension between the swampland criteria and the current lower bound on the tensor-to-scalar ratio.

title: The Effect of Autophagy Inhibitors on RVFV Production

description: This thesis has been embargoed for 2 years. It will not be available until April 2023 at the earliest.
description: Rift Valley Fever Virus (RVFV) is an arbovirus that can infect ruminants and humans. It can cause many diseases including encephalitis, hemorrhagic fever, and ocular disease. A severe version of the disease is observed predominantly in pregnant and young livestock. While it is primarily transmitted by mosquitoes, most human cases are acquired through contact with blood or organs of an infected animal. Autophagy is an intracellular pathway that allows for the degradation of cytoplasmic organelles during cellular stress. The role of autophagy during viral infections is unclear. In some cases, it slows the progression of the infection, whereas, in many other cases the virus uses the autophagy system to enhance its replication. We hypothesized that inhibition of autophagy will cause RVFV titer reduction and provide evidence that the process of autophagy can be pro-viral to RVFV. To explore the impact of autophagy on RVFV replication, small molecule modulators of autophagy were utilized. CA-5F, DBBC661, and ML240, which are all known autophagy inhibitors, were shown to be capable of reducing RVFV infectious titers. CA-5F was selected for further studies due to it being one of the most potent and least toxic inhibitors. CA-5F is a late-stage autophagy inhibitor that functions by inhibiting the autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Previous studies have shown CA-5F to have anti-tumor effects against lung cancer cells. HSEACs (Human Small Airway Epithelial Cells) were treated with non-toxic concentrations of CA-5F and a significant decrease in viral production was observed. Furthermore, the greatest decrease in RVFV titers was observed at 16 and 24 hours post-infection as compared to 8 hours post-infection. Additionally, intracellular RNA analysis showed that although CA-5F decreases RVFV infectious titers in a dose-dependent manner, it does not impact viral RNA production. This study provides evidence that the autophagy inhibitor, CA-5F, is capable of reducing RVFV production. Future studies will assess the importance of the viral protein NSs in CA-5F inhibition.

description: We present Quantum Cloning Machines (QCM) that transform N identical qubits into $M>N$ identical copies and we prove that the fidelity (quality) of these copies is optimal. The connection between cloning and measurement is discussed in detail. When the number of clones M tends towards infinity, the fidelity of each clone tends towards the optimal fidelity that can be obtained by a measurement on the input qubits. More generally, the QCM are universal devices to translate quantum information into classical information.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: The $τ$ decays to six-pion final states have been studied with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. The measured branching fractions are ${\cal B}(τ^-\to 2π^-π^+3π^0ν_τ)=(2.2 \pm 0.3 \pm 0.4)\times 10^{-4}$ and ${\cal B}(τ^-\to 3π^-2π^+π^0ν_τ)=(1.7 \pm 0.2 \pm 0.2)\times 10^{-4}$. A search for substructure in these decays shows that they are saturated by intermediate states with $η$ or $ω$ mesons. We present the first observation of the decay $τ^-\to 2π^-π^+ων_τ$ and the branching fraction is measured to be $(1.2 \pm 0.2 \pm 0.1) \times 10^{-4}$. The measured branching fractions are in good agreement with the isospin expectations but somewhat below the Conserved-Vector-Current predictions.

description: The Plastic Scintillator Detector (PSD) of the DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) is designed to measure cosmic ray charge (Z) and to act as a veto detector for gamma-ray identification. In order to fully exploit the charge identification potential of the PSD and to enhance its capability to identify the gamma ray events, we develop a PSD detector alignment method. The path length of a given track in the volume of a PSD bar is derived taking into account the shift and rotation alignment corrections. By examining energy spectra of corner-passing events and fully contained events, position shifts and rotations of all PSD bars are obtained, and found to be on average about 1mm and 0.0015 radian respectively. To validate the alignment method, we introduce the artificial shifts and rotations of PSD bars in the detector simulation. These shift and rotation parameters can be recovered successfully by the alignment procedure. As a result of the PSD alignment procedure, the charge resolution of the PSD is improved from $4\%$ to $8\%$ depending on the nuclei.

Phra That Phanom Kha Okasa: Cultural Identity Dynamicsin A Historical And Changing Context
Creators: name: Kiattisak Bangperng
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025
Subjects: Kha Okasa of Phra That Phanom, Identity dynamic, Thai-Lao culture, Theravada Buddhism

description: My research aims to study the dynamics of cultural identity amongst the Pra That Phanom Kha Okasa, a group dedicated by rulers and kings to support and uphold Buddhism, in the context of historical and political changes in Laos. The Kha Okasa held the status of servants who were of the lowest social status in the Lao feudal system. When Laos was colonized by the Kingdom of Siam, the role of the Kha Okasa in the culture faded. Under the reign of King Rama V,  the central government of Siam ordered to demote the local chief administration in the Lao districts until slavery was abolished. However, despite the changes during that period, the relationship between the Phra That Phanom and Buddhism remained for a long time. Through this relationship, they held on to the meaning of being a Kha Okasa which, for them, was to be a sacred symbol and center of the soul for people across the Mekong River who were dealing with cultural adaptation in the changing world.

description: We present the Raman scattering results on layered 2D semiconducting ferromagnetic compound CrSiTe$_3$. Four Raman active modes, predicted by symmetry, have been observed and assigned. The experimental results are supported by DFT calculations. The self-energies of the $A_g^3$ and the $E_g^3$ symmetry modes exhibit unconventional temperature evolution around 180 K. In addition, the doubly degenerate $E_g^3$ mode shows clear change of asymmetry in the same temperature region. The observed behavior is consistent with the presence of the previously reported short-range magnetic order and the strong spin-phonon coupling.
Moduli Forces in String Models with Large Internal Dimensions

description: We estimate the strength and range of forces mediated by string moduli in type I string models with two (or more) large internal dimensions. We find that forces mediated by twisted moduli which live on the brane world--volume can mediate forces which are orders of magnitude stronger than gravity with a range up to a milimeter. If they exist, these forces can be easily observed in present experiments. On the other hand, forces mediated by the dilaton and untwisted moduli are about a hundred times stronger than gravity and may be observed depending on their range.

Segmenting root systems in X-ray computed tomography images using level sets

description: The segmentation of plant roots from soil and other growing media in X-ray computed tomography images is needed to effectively study the root system architecture without excavation. However, segmentation is a challenging problem in this context because the root and non-root regions share similar features. In this paper, we describe a method based on level sets and specifically adapted for this segmentation problem. In particular, we deal with the issues of using a level sets approach on large image volumes for root segmentation, and track active regions of the front using an occupancy grid. This method allows for straightforward modifications to a narrow-band algorithm such that excessive forward and backward movements of the front can be avoided, distance map computations in a narrow band context can be done in linear time through modification of Meijster et al.'s distance transform algorithm, and regions of the image volume are iteratively used to estimate distributions for root versus non-root classes. Results are shown of three plant species of different maturity levels, grown in three different media. Our method compares favorably to a state-of-the-art method for root segmentation in X-ray CT image volumes.

description: Networked control applications for cyber-physical networks demand predictable and reliable real-time communication. Applications of this domain have to cooperate with network protocols, the operating system, and the hardware to improve safety properties and increase resource efficiency. In consequence, a cross-layer approach is necessary for the design and holistic optimisation of cyber-physical systems and networks. This paper presents X-Lap, a cross-layer, inter-host timing analysis tool tailored to the needs of real-time communication. We use X-Lap to evaluate the timing behaviour of a reliable real-time communication protocol. Our analysis identifies parts of the protocol which are responsible for unwanted jitter. To system designers, X-Lap provides useful support for the design and evaluation of networked real-time systems.

description: We investigate the breaking of Lorentz symmetry caused by the inclusion of an external four-vector via a Chern-Simons-like term in the Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau Lagrangian for massless and massive spin-one fields. The resulting equations of motion lead to the appearance of birefringence, where the corresponding photons are split into two propagation modes. We discuss the gauge invariance of the extended Lagrangian. Throughout the paper, we utilize projection operators to reduce the wave-functions to their physical components, and we provide many new properties of these projection operators.

On fermion mass hierarchy with extra dimensions

description: Recently various phenomenological implications of the existence of extra space-time dimensions have been investigated. In this letter, we construct a model with realistic fermion mass hierarchy with (large) extra dimensions beyond the usual four dimensions. In this model, it is assumed that some matter fields live in the bulk and the others are confined on our four dimensional wall. It can naturally reproduce the quark and lepton mass hierarchy and mixing angles without any symmetry arguments. We also discuss some possibilities of obtaining suitable neutrino masses and mixings for the solar and atmospheric neutrino problems.

description: A novel description of kinetic theory dynamics is proposed in terms of resummed moments that embed information of both hydrodynamic and non-hydrodynamic modes. The resulting expansion can be used to extend hydrodynamics to higher orders in a consistent and numerically efficient way; at lowest order it reduces to an Israel-Stewart-like theory. This formalism is especially suited to investigate the general problem of particles interacting with fields. We tested the accuracy of this approach against the exact solution of the coupled Boltzmann-Vlasov-Maxwell equations for a plasma in an electromagnetic field undergoing Bjorken-like expansion, including extreme cases characterized by large deviations from local equilibrium and large electric fields. We show that this new resummed method maintains the fast convergence of the traditional method of moments. We also find a new condition, unrelated to Knudsen numbers and pressure corrections, that justifies the truncation of the series even in situations far from local thermal equilibrium.

We simulate the spatial and temporal evolution of precipitated micro structures starting from initial random configurations of anhydrous cement particles. Though the simulations have been performed for two dimensional systems, we are able to reproduce qualitatively basic features of the cement hydration problem. The proposed model is also applicable to general water/mineral systems.

The data were collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider during 1994-1995 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 85 pb^{-1}. The results are in good agreement with quantum chromodynamics over the entire range of transverse momentum.

description: We present the first numerical models of differentially rotating stars in alternative theories of gravity. We chose a particular class of scalar-tensor theories of gravity that is indistinguishable from GR in the weak field regime but can lead to significant deviations when strong fields are considered. We show that the maximum mass that a differentially rotating neutron star can sustain increases significantly for scalarized solutions and such stars can reach larger angular momenta. In addition, the presence of a nontrivial scalar field has the effect of increasing the required axis ratio for reaching a given value of angular momentum, when compared to a corresponding model of same rest mass in general relativity. We find that the scalar field also makes rapidly rotating models less quasi-toroidal than their general-relativistic counterparts. For large values of the angular momentum and values of the coupling parameter that are in agreement with the observations, we find a second turning point for scalarized models along constant angular momentum sequences, which could have interesting implications for the stability of remnants created in a binary neutron star merger.

description: The decays $B^+\to D_{s,d}^+e^+e^-$ and $B^+\to D_{s,d}^{*+}e^+e^-$ proceed through a weak and an electromagnetic interaction. This is a typical ``long distance'' process, usually difficult to compute systematically. We propose that over a large fraction of phase space a combination of an operator product and heavy quark expansions effectively turns this process into one in which the weak and electromagnetic interactions occur through a local operator. Moreover, we use heavy quark spin symmetry to relate all the local operators that appear in leading order of the operator expansion to two basic ones. We use this operator expansion to estimate the decay rates for $B^+\to D_{s,d}^{(*)+}e^+e^-$.

description: Beta-decay properties of neutron-rich Ca, Ti, and Cr isotopes are studied within a deformed proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation. The underlying mean field is described self-consistently from deformed Skyrme Hartree-Fock calculations with pairing correlations. Residual spin-isospin interactions in the particle-hole and particle-particle channels are also included in the formalism. The energy distributions of the Gamow-Teller strength, the beta-decay feedings, the beta-decay half-lives, and the beta-delayed neutron emission probabilities are discussed and compared with other theoretical results, as well as with the available experimental information. The evolution of these nuclear beta-decay properties is investigated in isotopic chains in a search for structural changes. A reliable estimate of the beta-decay properties in this mass region is a valuable information for evaluating decay rates in astrophysical scenarios.

description: Motivated by $-2 σ$ deviation from the Standard Model prediction for the forward--backward asymmetry of $Z \to b \bar{b}$ decay in the LEP data, we explore the anomalous couplings of $Z b \bar{b}$ vertex through the electroweak precision test extended by including $A_{FB}^b$. We introduce a new variable $ε'_b$ to measure the anomalous right-handed coupling in $Z b \bar{b}$ vertex. Implications of our analysis on the nonuniversal contact interactions are studied and the left-right model is also considered as a possible origin of the anomalous right-handed couplings.

description: We present a novel approach to the treatment of thermal fluctuations in the (3+1)-D viscous hydrodynamic simulation MUSIC. The phenomenological impact of thermal fluctuations on hadronic observables is investigated using the IP-Glasma + hydrodynamics + hadronic cascade hybrid approach. The anisotropic flow observed in heavy-ion collision experiments is mostly attributed to the hydrodynamic response to the event-by-event collision geometry and to the sub-nucleon quantum fluctuations. However, hydrodynamic fluctuations are present during the dynamical evolution of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) and are quantified by the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. They can leave their imprint on final-state observables. By analyzing the thermal noise mode-by-mode, we provide a consistent scheme of treating these fluctuations as the source terms for hydrodynamic fields. These source terms are then evolved together with hydrodynamic equations of motion. Such a treatment captures the non-perturbative nature of the evolution for these thermal fluctuations.

description: Intensive sunflower production is mainly focused on increasing seed yield, but less importance is given to
 soil properties, potential ecosystem services and resource conservation. This practice can cause the reduction
 in organic matter content in the soil, loss of soil fertility, increased erosion, as well as pollution of ground
 waters. Hence, it is necessary to introduce alternative practices such as intercropping that has raised much
 attention because it could improve agriculture production for many crops. Previous research has shown that
 it is best to combine two crops, including one from the Fabaceae family. Plants from this family have the ability
 to create a large amount of above-ground mass, strong root systems with high absorption power, ability to
 adapt to shady conditions, suppressive effect on weeds and the ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen and provide
 nitrogen for other plant species that are intercropped with (de la Fuente et al., 2014). Commonly intercropped
 with legumes are crops from а Poaceae family, whereas the combination of sunflower with legumes is
 relatively rare. The reason for this may be that in an earlier period there were no hybrids tolerant to different
 diseases and pests. However, today there are justifiable reasons for studying combinations of sunflower and
 the most important legumes. The goal of this research is to analyze and recommend sustainable technology
 of sunflower cultivation in intercropping systems and select the legumes most suitable for intercropping with
 sunflower, aiming to increase productivity per unit area. The assumption is that intercropping of red clover
 and alfalfa with sunflower will give similar results.

description: The PYTHIA 6 Monte Carlo (MC) event generator, commonly used in collider physics, is interfaced for the first time with a fast transport simulation of a hydrogen atmosphere, with the same density as air, in order to study the properties of extended atmospheric showers (EAS) produced by cosmic ray protons with energies E$_{CR}\approx 10^{14}$--$10^{20}$ eV. At variance with the hadronic MC generators (EPOS-LHC, QGSJET, and SIBYLL) commonly used in cosmic-rays physics, PYTHIA includes the generation of harder hadronic jets and heavy (charm and bottom) quarks, thereby producing higher transverse momentum final particles, that could explain several anomalies observed in the data. The electromagnetic, hadronic, and muonic properties of EAS generated with various settings of PYTHIA 6, tuned to proton-proton data measured at the LHC, are compared to those from EPOS-LHC, QGSJET 01, QGSJET II, and SIBYLL 2.1. Despite their different underlying parton dynamics, the characteristics of the EAS generated with PYTHIA 6 are in between those predicted by the rest of MC generators. The only exceptions are the muonic components at large transverse distances from the shower axis, where PYTHIA predicts more activity than the rest of the models. Heavy-quark production, as implemented in this study for a hydrogen atmosphere, does not seem to play a key role in the EAS muon properties, pointing to nuclear effects as responsible of the muon anomalies observed in the air-shower data.

description: We study the ground state of a clean two-dimensional electron liquid in a weak magnetic field where $N \gg 1$ lower Landau levels are completely filled and the upper level is partially filled. It is shown that the electrons at the upper Landau level form domains with filling factor equal to one and zero. The domains alternate with a spatial period of order of the cyclotron radius, which is much larger than the interparticle distance at the upper Landau level. The one-particle density of states, which can be probed by tunneling experiments, is shown to have a pseudogap linearly dependent on the magnetic field in the limit of large $N$.

description: Abelian and non-Abelian topological phases exhibiting protected chiral edge modes are ubiquitous in the realm of the Fractional Quantum Hall (FQH) effect. Here, we investigate a spin-1 Hamiltonian on the square lattice which could, potentially, host the spin liquid analog of the (bosonic) non-Abelian Moore-Read FQH state, as suggested by Exact Diagonalisation of small clusters. Using families of fully SU(2)-spin symmetric and translationally invariant chiral Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS), variational energy optimization is performed using infinite-PEPS methods, providing good agreement with Density Matrix Renormalisation Group (DMRG) results. A careful analysis of the bulk spin-spin and dimer-dimer correlation functions in the optimized spin liquid suggests that they exhibit long-range "gossamer tails". We argue these tails are finite-$D$ artifacts of the chiral PEPS, which become irrelevant when the PEPS bond dimension $D$ is increased. From the investigation of the entanglement spectrum, we observe sharply defined chiral edge modes following the prediction of the SU(2)$_2$ Wess-Zumino-Witten theory and exhibiting a conformal field theory (CFT) central charge $c=3/2$, as expected for a Moore-Read chiral spin liquid. We conclude that the PEPS formalism offers an unbiased and efficient method to investigate non-Abelian chiral spin liquids in quantum antiferromagnets.
