description: The anomalous Hall effect is investigated for ferromagnetic Fe3Sn2 single crystal with geometrically frustrated kagome bilayer of Fe. The scaling behavior between anomalous Hall resistivity rho_{xy}^{A} and longitudinal resistivity rho_{xx} is quadratic and further analysis implies that the AHE in Fe3Sn2 single crystal should be dominated by the intrinsic Karplus-Luttinger mechanism rather than extrinsic skew-scattering or side-jump mechanisms. Moreover, there is a sudden jump of anomalous Hall conductivity sigma_{xy}^{A} appearing at about 100 K where the spin-reorientation transition from the c axis to the ab plane is completed. This change of sigma_{xy}^{A} might be related to the evolution of Fermi surface induced by the spin-reorientation transition.

YSO jets in the Galactic Plane from UWISH2: III - Jets and Outflows in Cassiopeia and Auriga

description: We present the analysis of 35.5 square degrees of images in the 1-0S(1) line of H2 from the UK Widefield Infrared Survey for H2 (UWISH2) towards Cassiopeia and Auriga. We have identified 98 Molecular Hydrogen emission-line Objects (MHOs) driven by Young Stellar Objects, 60% of which are bipolar outflows and all are new discoveries. We estimate that the UWISH2 extended emission object catalogue contains fewer than % false positives and is complete at the 95% level for jets and outflows brighter than the UWISH2 detection limit. We identified reliable driving source candidates for three quarters of the detected outflows, 40% of which are associated with groups and clusters of stars. The driving source candidates are 20% protostars, the remainder are CTTSs. We also identified 15 new star cluster candidates near MHOs in the survey area. We find that the typical outflow identified in the sample has the following characteristics: the position angles are randomly orientated; bipolar outflows are straight within a few degrees; the two lobes are slightly asymmetrical in length and brightness; the length and brightness of the lobes are not correlated; typical time gaps between major ejections of material are 1-3kyr, hence FU-Ori or EX-Ori eruptions are most likely not the cause of these, but we suggest MNors as a possible source. Furthermore, we find that outflow lobe length distributions are statistically different from the widely used total length distributions. There are a larger than expected number of bright outflows indicating that the flux distribution does not follow a power law.

description: In this contribution we present first results towards localized model order reduction for spatially resolved, three-dimensional lithium-ionbattery models. We introduce a localized reduced basis scheme based on non-conforming local approximation spaces stemming from a finite volume discretizationof the analytical model and localized empirical operator interpolation for the approximation of the model's nonlinearities.

description: Although Epsilon-Near-Zero metamaterials (ENZ) offer many unconventional ways to play with light, the optical impedance mismatch with surroundings can limit the efficiency of future devices. We report here on the improvement of the transmittance of an Epsilon-Near-Zero (ENZ) wavefront shaper. We first address in this paper the way to enhance the transmittance of a plane wave through a layer of ENZ material thanks to a numerical optimization approach based on the Transfer Matrix Method. We then transpose the one dimensional approach to a two dimensional case where the emission of a dipole is shaped into a plane wave by an ENZ device with a design that optimizes the transmittance. As a result, we demonstrate a transmittance efficiency of 15 \% that is 4 orders of magnitude higher than previous devices proposed in the literature for wavefront shaping applications. This work aims at paving the way for future efficient ENZ devices by offering new strategies to optimize the transmittance through ENZ materials.

description: Magnetic compensated state attracted much interests due to the observed large exchange bias and large coercivity, and its potential applications in the antiferromagnetic spintronics with merit of no stray field. In this work, by ab initio calculations with KKR-CPA for the treatment of random substitution, we obtain the complete compensated states in the Ni (Pd, Pt) doped Mn3Ge-based D022-type tetragonal Heusler alloys. We find the total moment change is asymmetric across the compensation point (at ~ x = 0.3) in Mn3-xYxGe (Y = Ni, Pd, Pt), which is highly conforming to that experimentally observed in Mn3Ga. In addition, an uncommon discontinuous jump is observed across the critical zero-moment point, indicating that some non-trivial properties can emerge at this point. Further electronic analysis for the three compensation compositions reveals large spin polarizations, together with the high Curie temperature of the host Mn3Ge, making them promising candidates for spin transfer torque applications.

description: We present a general formulation to calculate the dynamic optical conductivity, beyond the linear response regime, of any electronic system whose quasiparticle dispersion is described by a two band model. Our phenomenological model is based on the optical Bloch equations. In the steady state regime it yields an analytic solution for the population inversion and the interband coherence, which are nonlinear in the optical field intensity, including finite doping and temperature effects. We explicitly show that the optical nonlinearities are controlled by a single dimensionless parameter which is directly proportional to the incident field strength and inversely proportional to the optical frequency. This identification leads to a unified way to study the dynamical conductivity and the differential transmission spectrum across a wide range of optical frequencies, and optical field strength. We use our formalism to analytically calculate the nonlinear optical conductivity of doped and gapped graphene, deriving the well known universal ac conductivity of $σ_0={e^2}/4\hbar$ in the linear response regime of low optical intensities (or equivalently high frequencies) and non-linear deviations from it which appear at high laser intensities (or low frequencies) including the impact of finite doping and band-gap opening.

It allows us to make contact with the vertex operator techniques that were introduced separately at the same period. As a by-product, the method pinpoints two critical values of the central charge for which the center of the algebra is extended, as well as (in the $gl(2)$ case) a Liouville formula.

description: The rapid digitalization across industries comes with many challenges. One key problem is how the ever-growing and volatile data generated at distributed locations can be efficiently processed to inform decision making and improve products. Unfortunately, wide-area network capacity cannot cope with the growth of the data at the network edges. Thus, it is imperative to decide which data should be processed in-situ at the edge and which should be transferred and analyzed in data centers. In this paper, we study two families of proactive online data replication strategies, namely ski-rental and machine learning algorithms, to decide which data is processed at the edge, close to where it is generated, and which is transferred to a data center. Our analysis using real query traces from a Global 2000 company shows that such online replication strategies can significantly reduce data transfer volume in many cases up to 50% compared to naive approaches and achieve close to optimal performance. After analyzing their shortcomings for ease of use and performance, we propose a hybrid strategy that combines the advantages of both competitive and machine learning algorithms.

description: Based on a study of the thermophysical properties, we derived a practical formula for the normal zone propagation velocity appropriate for REBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$ coated conductors in high magnetic fields. An analytical expression to evaluate the current sharing temperature as a function of the operating conditions is also proposed. The presented study has allowed us to account for experimental results not fully understood in the framework of the models widely used in the literature. In particular, we provided a fundamental understanding of the experimental evidence that the normal zone propagation velocity in REBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$ coated conductors can be mainly determined by the operating current, regardless of the applied field and temperature.

Diffusions under a local strong Hörmander condition. Part I: density estimates

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)

description: We study lower and upper bounds for the density of a diffusion process in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ in a small (but not asymptotic) time, say $δ$. We assume that the diffusion coefficients $σ_1,\ldots,σ_d$ may degenerate at the starting time $0$ and point $x_0$ but they satisfy a strong Hörmander condition involving the first order Lie brackets. The density estimates are written in terms of a norm which accounts for the non-isotropic structure of the problem: in a small time $δ$, the diffusion process propagates with speed $\sqrtδ$ in the direction of the diffusion vector fields $σ_{j}$ and with speed $δ=\sqrtδ\times \sqrtδ$ in the direction of $[σ_{i},σ_{j}]$. In the second part of this paper, such estimates will be used in order to study lower and upper bounds for the probability that the diffusion process remains in a tube around a skeleton path up to a fixed time.
Could Cirrus Clouds Have Warmed Early Mars?

description: The presence of the ancient valley networks on Mars indicates that the climate at 3.8 Ga was warm enough to allow substantial liquid water to flow on the martian surface for extended periods of time. However, the mechanism for producing this warming continues to be debated. One hypothesis is that Mars could have been kept warm by global cirrus cloud decks in a CO2-H2O atmosphere containing at least 0.25 bar of CO2 (Urata and Toon, 2013). Initial warming from some other process, e.g., impacts, would be required to make this model work. Those results were generated using the CAM 3-D global climate model. Here, we use a single-column radiative-convective climate model to further investigate the cirrus cloud warming hypothesis. Our calculations indicate that cirrus cloud decks could have produced global mean surface temperatures above freezing, but only if cirrus cloud cover approaches ~75 - 100% and if other cloud properties (e.g., height, optical depth, particle size) are chosen favorably. However, at more realistic cirrus cloud fractions, or if cloud parameters are not optimal, cirrus clouds do not provide the necessary warming, suggesting that other greenhouse mechanisms are needed.

description: Cu-based shape memory alloys (SMAs) present some advantages as higher transformation temperatures, lower costs and are easier to process than traditional Ti-based SMAs but they also show some disadvantages as low ductility and higher tendency for intergranular cracking. Several studies have sought for a way to improve the mechanical properties of these alloys and microstructural refinement has been frequently used. It can be obtained by laser remelting treatments. The aim of the present work was to investigate the influence of the laser surface remelting on the microstructure of a Cu-11.85Al-3.2Ni-3Mn (wt%) SMA. Plates were remelted using three different laser scanning speeds, i.e. 100, 300 and 500 mm/s. The remelted regions showed a T-shape morphology with a mean thickness of 52, 29 and 23 µm and an average grain size of 30, 29 and 23µm for plates remelted using scanning speed of 100, 300 and 500 mm/s, respectively. In the plates remelted with 100 and 300 mm/s some pores were found at the root of the keyhole due to the keyhole instability. We find that the instability of keyholes becomes more pronounced for lower scanning speeds. It was not observed any preferential orientation introduced by the laser treatment.

description: Models of spatial firm competition assume that customers are distributed in space and transportation costs are associated with their purchases of products from a small number of firms that are also placed at definite locations. It has been long known that the competition equilibrium is not guaranteed to exist if the most straightforward linear transportation costs are assumed. We show by simulations and also analytically that if periodic boundary conditions in two dimensions are assumed, the equilibrium exists for a pair of firms at any distance. When a larger number of firms is considered, we find that their total equilibrium profit is inversely proportional to the square root of the number of firms. We end with a numerical investigation of the system's behavior for a general transportation cost exponent.

Here, we analyse the suitability of the energy density to represent the energy transferred to the powder bed, which is effectively used to melt the particles and to produce the bulk specimens. By properly varying laser power and speed in order to process the powder at constant energy density, we show that the equation currently used to calculate the energy density gives only an approximate estimation and that hatch parameters and material properties should be considered to correctly evaluate the energy density.

We present results for the ground-state energy as a function of the frustration parameter $R = J_2 /|J_1|$. We find that the cluster-size has a considerable effect on the existence and location of a tricritical point in the phase diagram at which the phase transition changes from the second order to the first one.

description: A full-duplex two-way relay channel with multiple antennas is considered. For this three-node network, the beamforming design needs to suppress self-interference. While a traditional way is to apply zero-forcing for self-interference mitigation, it may harm the desired signals. In this paper, a design which reserves a fraction of self-interference is proposed by solving a quality-of-service constrained beamforming design problem. Since the problem is challenging due to the loop self-interference, a convergence-guaranteed alternating optimization algorithm is proposed to jointly design the relay-user beamformers. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme outperforms zero-forcing method, and achieves a transmit power close to the ideal case.

We show that the activation volume of flow units linearly depends on temperature in the non-serrated flow regime. A plausible atomic deformation mechanism is proposed, considering that the activated flow units mediating the plastic flow originate from the medium-range order and transit to the short-range order with decreasing temperature.

description: The powder-in-tube (PIT) technology was applied to La(Fe, Co, Si)13 powder cladded by a thin seamless austenitic steel jacket. Wires appear to be promising in the search for alternative regenerator geometries, since they offer various possibilities of arrangements allowing to optimise heat transfer and pressure loss within the boundaries set by parallel plate and sphere beds. Here, pre-alloyed La(Fe, Co, Si)13 powder was filled in a AISI 316L austenitic steel tube and swaged to wires with an outer diameter of 1 mm. By mechanical deformation, the steel jacket thickness was reduced to about 100 μm surrounding the magnetocaloric core. A post-annealing of only 10 min at 1050 °C is sufficient to form the magnetocaloric NaZn13-type phase resulting in an entropy change close to the value of a pure reference sample. The presented technology is not limited to La(Fe, Co, Si)13/steel combination but can be extended to material pairs involving wire core materials with a first order transition, such as Fe2P-type or Heusler alloys.

description: A single-phase solid solution is observed in quaternary and quinary alloys obtained from gold, copper, nickel, palladium and platinum. The lattice parameters of the alloys follow the linear rule of mixture when considering the lattice parameters of the elements and their concentration. The elements are a priori not homogeneously distributed within the respective alloys resulting in segregations. These segregations cause a large broadening of X-ray lines, which is accessed in the present article. This correlation is visualized by the help of local element mappings utilizing scanning electron microscopy including energy dispersive X-ray analysis and their quantitative analysis.

description: Lightweight metal matrix composites are synthesized from elemental powder mixtures of aluminum and magnesium using pressure-assisted reactive sintering. The effect of the reaction between aluminum and magnesium on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composites due to the formation of β-Al3Mg2 and γ-Al12Mg17 intermetallics is investigated. The formation of the intermetallic compounds progressively consumes aluminum and magnesium and induces strengthening of the composites: the yield and compressive strengths increase with the increase of the content of intermetallic reinforcement at the expense of the plastic deformation. The yield strength of the composites follows the iso-stress model when the data are plotted as a function of the intermetallic content.

description: We present the results of a recent reverberation mapping campaign for UGC 06728, a nearby low-luminosity Seyfert 1 in a late-type galaxy. Nightly monitoring in the spring of 2015 allowed us to determine an H$β$ time delay of $τ= 1.4 \pm 0.8$ days. Combined with the width of the variable H$β$ line profile, we determine a black hole mass of $M_{\rm BH} = (7.1 \pm 4.0) \times 10^5$ M$_{\odot}$. We also constrain the bulge stellar velocity dispersion from higher-resolution long slit spectroscopy along the galaxy minor axis and find $σ_{\star} = 51.6 \pm 4.9$ km s$^{-1}$. The measurements presented here are in good agreement with both the $R_{\rm BLR} - L$ relationship and the $M_{\rm BH}-σ_{\star}$ relationship for AGNs. Combined with a previously published spin measurement, our mass determination for UGC 06728 makes it the lowest-mass black hole that has been fully characterized, and thus an important object to help anchor the low-mass end of black hole evolutionary models.

description: We report a high-pressure transport study of the upper-critical field, $B_{c2}(T)$, of the topological superconductor Sr$_{0.15}$Bi$_2$Se$_3$ ($T_c = 3.0$ K). $B_{c2}(T)$ was measured for magnetic fields directed along two orthogonal directions, $a$ and $a^*$, in the trigonal basal plane. While superconductivity is rapidly suppressed at the critical pressure $p_c \sim 3.5$ GPa, the pronounced two-fold basal-plane anisotropy $B_{c2}^a/B_{c2}^{a^*} = 3.2$ at $T=0.3$ K, recently reported at ambient pressure (Pan et al., 2016), is reinforced and attains a value of $\sim 5$ at the highest pressure (2.2 GPa). The data reveal that the unconventional superconducting state with broken rotational symmetry is robust under pressure.

Large-p_T production of D mesons at the LHCb in the parton Reggeization approach

description: The production of D mesons in proton-proton collisions at the LHCb detector is studied. We consider the single production of D^0, D^+, D^star, and D_s^+ mesons and correlation spectra in the production of DbarD and DD pairs at the sqrt{S}=7 TeV and sqrt{S}=13 TeV. In case of the single D-meson production we calculate differential cross sections over transverse momentum p_T while in the pair DbarD,DD-meson production the cross sections are calculated over the azimuthal angle difference, rapidity difference, invariant mass of the pair M and over the p_T of the one meson from a pair. The cross sections are obtained at the leading order of the parton Reggeization approach using Kimber-Martin-Ryskin unintegrated parton distribution functions in a proton. To describe the D-meson production we use universal scale-dependent c-quark and gluon fragmentation functions fitted to e^+e^- annihilation data from CERN LEP1. Our predictions find a good agreement with the LHCb Collaboration data within uncertainties and without free parameters.

description: This research is on the nonlinear dynamics of a two-sided electrostatically actuated capacitive micro-beam. The microresonator is composed of silicon and PZT as a piezoelectric material. PZT is functionally distributed along the height of the micro-beam according to the power law distribution. The micro-resonator is simultaneously subjected to DC piezoelectric and two-sided electrostatic actuations. The DC piezoelectric actuation leads to the generation of an axial force along the length of the micro-beam and this is used as a tuning tool to shift the primary resonance of the micro-resonator. The governing equation of the motion is derived by the minimization of the Hamiltonian and generalized to the viscously damped systems. The periodic solutions in the vicinity of the primary resonance are detected by means of the shooting method and their stability is investigated by determining the so-called Floquet exponents of the perturbed motions. The basins of attraction corresponding to three individual periodic orbits are determined. The results depict that the higher the amplitude of the periodic orbit, the smaller is the area of the attractor

Robot Contact Task State Estimation via Action Grammars

description: Uncertainty is a major difficulty in endowing robots with autonomy. Robots often fail due to unexpected events. In robot contact tasks are often design to empirically look for force thresholds to define state transitions in a Markov chain or finite state machines. Such design is prone to failure in unstructured environments, when due to external disturbances or erroneous models, such thresholds are met, and lead to state transitions that are false-positives. The focus of this paper is to perform high-level state estimation of robot behaviors and task output for robot contact tasks. Our approach encodes raw low-level 3D cartesian trajectories and converts them into a high level (HL) action grammars. Cartesian trajectories can be segmented and encoded in a way that their dynamic properties, or "texture" are preserved. Once an action grammar is generated, a classifier is trained to detect current behaviors and ultimately the task output. The system executed HL state estimation for task output verification with an accuracy of 86%, and behavior monitoring with an average accuracy of: 72%. The significance of the work is the transformation of difficult-to-use raw low-level data to HL data that enables robust behavior and task monitoring. Monitoring is useful for failure correction or other deliberation in high-level planning, programming by demonstration, and human-robot interaction to name a few.
