Gravitational waves from instabilities in relativistic stars
Creators: name: Andersson, N.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This article provides an overview of stellar instabilities as sources of gravitational waves. The aim is to put recent work on secular and dynamical instabilities in compact stars in context, and to summarize the current thinking about the detectability of gravitational waves from various scenarios. As a new generation of kilometer length interferometric detectors are now coming online this is a highly topical theme. The review is motivated by two key questions for future gravitational-wave astronomy: Are the gravitational waves from various instabilities detectable? If so, what can these gravitational-wave signals teach us about neutron star physics? Even though we may not have clear answers to these questions, recent studies of the dynamical bar-mode instability and the secular r-mode instability have provided new insights into many of the difficult issues involved in modelling unstable stars as gravitational-wave sources.

description: In this paper, we propose a new hand gesture recognition method based on skeletal data by learning SPD matrices with neural networks. We model the hand skeleton as a graph and introduce a neural network for SPD matrix learning, taking as input the 3D coordinates of hand joints. The proposed network is based on two newly designed layers that transform a set of SPD matrices into a SPD matrix. For gesture recognition, we train a linear SVM classifier using features extracted from our network. Experimental results on a challenging dataset (Dynamic Hand Gesture dataset from the SHREC 2017 3D Shape Retrieval Contest) show that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods.

description: We propose a model for the mass matrices of quarks and leptons based on two Abelian flavor symmetries. One is assumed to be broken at a high energy region near the Planck scale. It is used for the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism in both quark and charged lepton sectors. Another one remains unbroken to a multi-TeV region. The mixings among neutrinos and gauginos including the one of the new Abelian symmetry generate non-zero masses and mixings among neutrinos. A bi-maximal scheme for the neutrino oscillation can be realized together with suitable masses and CKM-mixings in the quark sector. FCNC constraints on this flavor dependent Abelian symmetry seems to be evaded.

description: Perfusion MRI is an important modality in many brain imaging protocols, since it probes cerebrovascular changes in aging and many diseases; however, it may not be always available. Here we introduce a method that seeks to estimate regional perfusion properties using spectral information of resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) via machine learning. We used pairs of rsfMRI and arterial spin labeling (ASL) images from the same elderly individuals with normal cognition (NC; n = 45) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI; n = 26), and built support vector machine models aiming to estimate regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) from the rsfMRI signal alone. This method demonstrated higher associations between the estimated CBF and actual CBF (ASL-CBF) at the total lobar gray matter (r = 0.40; FDR-p = 1.9e-03), parietal lobe (r = 0.46, FDR-p = 8e-04), and occipital lobe (r = 0.35; FDR-p = 0.01) using rsfMRI signals of frequencies [0.01-0.15] Hertz compared to frequencies [0.01-0.10] Hertz and [0.01-0.20] Hertz, respectively. We further observed significant associations between the estimated CBF and actual CBF in 24 regions of interest (p < 0.05), with the highest association observed in the superior parietal lobule (r = 0.50, FDR-p = 0.002). Moreover, the estimated CBF at superior parietal lobule showed significant correlation with the mini-mental state exam (MMSE) score (r = 0.27; FDR-p = 0.04) and decreased in MCI with lower MMSE score compared to NC group (FDR-p = 0.04). Overall, these results suggest that the proposed framework can obtain estimates of regional perfusion from rsfMRI, which can serve as surrogate perfusion measures in the absence of ASL.

description: We analyze the structure of higher-order radiative corrections for processes with unstable particles. By subsequently integrating out the various scales that are induced by the presence of unstable particles we obtain a hierarchy of effective field theories. In the effective field theory framework the separation of physically different effects is achieved naturally. In particular, we automatically obtain a separation of factorizable and non-factorizable corrections to all orders in perturbation theory. At one loop this treatment is equivalent to the double-pole approximation (DPA) but generalizes to higher orders and, at least in principle, to beyond the DPA. It is known that one-loop non-factorizable corrections to invariant mass distributions are suppressed at high energy. We study the mechanism of this suppression and obtain estimates of higher-order non-factorizable corrections at high energy.

description: How might we move beyond current critiques of speculative finance and Silicon Valley to think more broadly about the relation between technological imagination, finance, and an emerging moral economy? This thesis takes up this question through an ethnographic exploration of “the Pitch” at Y-Combinator’s Demo Day in Silicon Valley – a venue that has gained international attention for its capacity to launch successful startups. The pitch is the key moment when aspiring startups put to test the coaching and guidance that they have received in the Y-Combinator program toward selling the promise of their technological innovation to an audience of possible investors. Through a close reading of a number of Demo Day videos available on the web, together with analyses of material collected via zoom interviews with past participants in the Y-Combinator program, I disassemble the discursive mechanics of the pitch into its central rhetorical components and affective hooks. In my argument I engage the pitch as a heuristic that reveals the financial speculation elicited through Demo Day as an emerging expression of techno-entrepreneurial capitalist ethics rather than mere rationalized calculation toward the maximization of profit. To paraphrase the argument, the pitch makes explicit the normative assumptions at work through speculative finance and technological innovation, thus bringing forward the implicit values that inform the investment of time and capital. In laying out this argument, I think with Laura Bear’s notion of technologies of imagination beyond its critique of post-crisis capitalism. Whereas Bear puts emphasis on speculation as an expression of calculated risk, I underscore it as a potential force of ethical orderings in Silicon Valley’s financial culture.

description: The pion-nucleon amplitude is considered in the vicinity of the elastic scattering threshold within a relativistic dynamical model dressing the pi N N and pi N Delta vertices self-consistently with an infinite number of meson loops. The dressing is formulated as solution of a system of coupled integral equations incorporating unitarity, crossing symmetry and analyticity constraints. The calculated scattering lengths and the sigma-term agree with recent data analyses. The dressing is important in this model both below and at threshold. The contribution of the Delta resonance is discussed, including effects of the consistent dressing of the pi N Delta vertex. A comparison with the approaches of chiral perturbation theory and the Bethe-Salpeter equation is outlined.

description: Network embedding (or graph embedding) has been widely used in many real-world applications. However, existing methods mainly focus on networks with single-typed nodes/edges and cannot scale well to handle large networks. Many real-world networks consist of billions of nodes and edges of multiple types, and each node is associated with different attributes. In this paper, we formalize the problem of embedding learning for the Attributed Multiplex Heterogeneous Network and propose a unified framework to address this problem. The framework supports both transductive and inductive learning. We also give the theoretical analysis of the proposed framework, showing its connection with previous works and proving its better expressiveness. We conduct systematical evaluations for the proposed framework on four different genres of challenging datasets: Amazon, YouTube, Twitter, and Alibaba. Experimental results demonstrate that with the learned embeddings from the proposed framework, we can achieve statistically significant improvements (e.g., 5.99-28.23% lift by F1 scores; p<<0.01, t-test) over previous state-of-the-art methods for link prediction. The framework has also been successfully deployed on the recommendation system of a worldwide leading e-commerce company, Alibaba Group. Results of the offline A/B tests on product recommendation further confirm the effectiveness and efficiency of the framework in practice.

description: A model for the quantum effective description of the vacuum structure of thermalized SU(3) Yang-Mills theory is proposed. The model is based on Abelian projection leading to a Ginzburg-Landau theory for the magnetic sector. The possibility of topologically non-trivial, effective monopole fields in the deconfining phase is explored. These fields are assumed to be Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield saturated solutions along the compact, euclidean time dimension. Accordingly, a gauge invariant interaction for the monopole fields is constructed. Motivated by the corresponding lattice results the vacuum dynamics is assumed to be dominated by the monopole fields. A reasonable value for the critical temperature is obtained, and the partial persistence of non-perturbative features in the deconfining phase of SU(3) Yang-Mills theory, as it is measured on the lattice, follows naturally.

description: The enterprise of agriculture is subject to lot many uncertainties. Still, more people in India earn their livelihood from this sector, than from all other economic sectors put together. Agricultural associated with several risks which include adverse changes in both input and output prices, Agricultural risk can be categorized as production risk, price or market, financial or credit, and institutional risks etc. The farmers are not assured of good quality and disease free crop which is essential for obtaining reasonable yield sufficient to recover expenses. Crop insurance is one of the major management strategies to overcome risk to greater extent. It is regarded as an essential part of well rounded agricultural programme designed to provide protection to farmers against physical failure of crops due to weather and other unavoidable natural hazards. Compared to other traditional risk reducing strategies, such as crop diversification, inter-cropping, mixed farming, integration of farm etc., available to farmers crop insurance is more efficient. If a farmer is assured of financial compensation when his income is considerably low for reasons beyond his control, he would more likely allocate his resources in a manner that would maximize his return. Crop insurance not only helps the farmers to withstand the shock from uncertain situation but also acts as incentive to use the resources efficiently and achieve higher level of productivity. It is important for us to encourage farmers to get into the crop insurance scheme so that there will be some amount of assured income for them in case of any unexpected loss in production process.

description: There is growing concern about the impact of climate change on agriculture and the potential need for better risk management instruments that respond to a more risky environment. This is based on the widespread assumption that climate change will increase weather and yield variability and will expose farmers to higher levels of risk. But it is not obvious what will be the net impact of those on the distribution of yields and its correlation with weather indexes. Five stylized scenarios for crop yields are built on the basis of the available empirical information: baseline, marginal climate change without adaptation, with adaptation and with misalignment of expectations, and an extreme events scenario. A micro simulation model is calibrated using micro farm level data from the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Four alternative policy measures are analyzed: three types of subsidized insurance (individual yield, area-yield and weather index) and an ex post disaster payment. Results on insurance uptake, budgetary costs and impacts on diversification, farmers’ welfare and farm income variability, are presented for three different types of farms. The paper goes beyond indentifying the effectiveness of risk management instruments under stylized climate change scenario and analyze the policy decision criteria when policy makers face ambiguous climate change contingencies.

description: This paper aims to understand the state of adjustment process and dynamic structure in Polish agriculture. A dynamic cost frontier model using the shadow cost approach is formulated to decompose cost efficiency into allocative and technical efficiencies. The dynamic cost efficiency model is developed into a more general context with a multiple quasi-fixed factor case. The model is implemented empirically using a panel data set of 1,143 Polish farms over the period 2004 to 2007. Due to the regional disparities and a wide variety of farm specialization, farms are categorized into two regions and five types of farm production specialization. The estimation results confirm our observation that adjustment is rather sluggish implying that adjustment cost are considerably high. It takes up to 30 years until Polish farmers reach their optimal level of capital and land input. Allocative and technical efficiency differ widely across regions. Moreover, efficiency is rather stable over time and among farm specialisations. However, their results indicate that the regions characterized by the larger farms perform slightly better.

description: The aim of this paper is to analyze the interactions among the prices of some agricultural commodities in Italy and United States by using the time series analysis method. After a general overview of the world and European agri-markets, the agricultural commodity and oil prices are investigated in order to analyze the cross-market interactions and test the hypothesis that the increased volatility in agricultural prices is caused by the exogenous crude oil prices. For the analysis the data about the commodity spot price series of wheat, corn, soybeans in US and Italy and crude oil price are collected. The results suggest: i) the presence of causal nexus with an exogenous influence of the oil price on the agricultural commodities for the US markets; ii) the evidence of cointegration between US and Italian commodities supporting the unique price condition; iii) no clear evidence of causality between oil and Italian agri-commodities, suggesting that the oil volatility is transmitted directly to the US market and indirectly to the Italian one.

description: The true multiplicity distribution of transiting planet systems is obscured by strong observational biases, leading low-multiplicity systems to be overrepresented in the observed sample. Using the Kepler FGK planet hosts, we employ approximate Bayesian computation to infer the multiplicity distribution by comparing simulated catalogs to the observed one. After comparing a total of ten different multiplicity distributions, half of which were two-population models, to the observed data, we find that a single-population model following a Zipfian distribution is able to explain the Kepler data as well as any of the dichotomous models we test. Our work provides another example of a way to explain the observed Kepler multiplicities without invoking a dichotomous planet population. Using our preferred Zipfian model, we estimate that an additional $2393_{-717}^{+904}$ planets likely reside in the 1537 FGK Kepler systems studied in this work, which would increase the planet count by a factor of $2.22_{-0.36}^{+0.46}$. Of these hidden worlds, $663_{-151}^{+158}$ are expected to reside in ostensibly single-transiting-planet systems, meaning that an additional planet(s) is expected for approximately 1-in-2 such Kepler systems.

description: Several properties of the solar interior are determined with a very high accuracy, which in some cases is comparable to that achieved in the determination of the Newton constant $G_N$. We find that the present uncertainty $ΔG_N/G_N=\pm 1.5\cdot 10^{-3}$ has significant effects on the profile of density and pressure, however it has negligible influence on the solar properties which can be measured by means of helioseismology and $^8{\rm B}$ neutrinos. Our result do not support recent claims that observational solar data can be used to determine the value of $G_N$ with an accuracy of few part in $10^{-4}$. Present data cannot constrain $G_N$ to much better than $10^{-2}$.

description: Jets and outflows are ubiquitous phenomena in astrophysics, found in our Galaxy in diverse environments, from the formation of stars to late-type stellar objects. We present observations conducted with the 305m Arecibo Telescope of the pre-planetary nebula CRL 618 (Westbrook Nebula) - a well studied late-type star that has developed bipolar jets. The observations resulted in the first detection of 4765 MHz OH in a late-type stellar object. The line was narrow (FWHM ~ 0.6 km/s) and ~40 km/s blueshifted with respect to the systemic velocity, which suggests association with the expanding jets/bullets in CRL 618. We also report non-detection at Arecibo of any other OH transition between 1 and 9 GHz. The non-detections were obtained during the observations in 2008, when the 4765 MHz OH line was first discovered, and also in 2015 when the 4765 MHz OH line was not detected. Our data indicate that the 4765 MHz OH line was a variable maser. Modeling of the 4765 MHz OH detection and non-detection of the other transitions is consistent with the physical conditions expected in CRL 618. The 4765 MHz OH maser could originate from dissociation of H2O by shocks after sublimation of icy objects in this dying carbon-rich stellar system, although other alternatives such as OH in an oxygen-rich circumstellar region associated with a binary companion are also possible.

description: We present a series of JCMT, BIMA and VLA observations of the massive star-forming region associated with G35.2--0.7N. These new observations shed considerable light on the nature of the outflows in this region. The combination of our CO, SiO and radio data suggest that there are perhaps as many as four outflows emanating from the core containing G35.2--0.7N. The most striking result is that the radio jet is ruled out as the driving source of the large-scale CO flow. The jet drives its own highly-collimated CO outflow. Molecular line emission from H13CN and H13CO+ peaks towards the centre of the large-scale CO outflow, but no radio source is detected within. A third flow may be seen in SiO emission, which appears to be centred on another peak in H13CO+. The fourth flow is not seen in CO or SiO, but is inferred from previous L'-band data and the discovery of a radio source at the proposed centre of this flow.

The disruption time of clusters in selected regions of four galaxies

description: If the cluster formation rate is constant and the disruption time of clusters depends on their initial mass as t_dis= t_4 x (M_i/10^4 Msun)^gamma, where M_i is the initial mass of a cluster, t_4 is the disruption time of a cluster of M_i=10^4 Msun and gamma is an exponent, then the values of t_4 and gamma can be derived in a very simple way from the age and mass histograms of large homogeneous samples of clusters with reliable age and/or mass determinations. We demonstrate the method and derive the values of t_4 and gamma from cluster samples in selected fields of four galaxies: M51, M33, SMC and the solar neighbourhood. The values of the exponent gamma are the same within their uncertainties in the four galaxies with gamma = 0.62 +- 0.06. However, the disruption time t_4 of clusters of 10^4 Msun is very different in the different locations. It is shortest in the inner region of M51 (t_4 = 40 Myr) and highest in the SMC (t_4=8 Gyr).

description: We consider the potential of a generic neutrino factory (NUFACT) in probing non-standard neutrino-matter interactions (NSI). We find that the sensitivity to flavour-changing (FC) NSI can be substantially improved with respect to present atmospheric neutrino data, especially at energies higher than approximately 50 GeV, where the effect of the tau mass is small. For example, a 100 GeV NUFACT can probe FC neutrino interactions at the level of few $|ε| < {few} \times 10^{-4}$ at 99 % C.L.
