description: We present the results of a Keck/DEIMOS survey of Ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs) in the Perseus Cluster core. We confirm cluster membership for 14 UCDs, with radial velocities ~5300 km s-1. Two of these confirmed that Perseus UCDs have extremely blue colours (B-R < 0.6 mag), reside in star-forming filaments surrounding NGC 1275, and have likely formed as massive star clusters in the last ~100 Myr. We also measure a central velocity dispersion of a third, UCD13 (σ0 = 38 ± 8 km s-1), the most extended UCD in our sample. We determine it to have radius Re = 85 ± 1.1 pc, a dynamical mass of (2.3 ± 0.8) x 108M ⊙, and a metallicity [Z/H]= -0.52+0.33 -0.29 dex. UCD13 and the cluster's central galaxy, NGC 1275, have a projected separation of 30 kpc and a radial velocity difference of ~20 km s-1. Based on its size, red colour, internal velocity dispersion, dynamical mass, metallicity, and proximity to NGC 1275, we argue that UCD13 is likely the remnant nucleus of a tidally stripped dwarf elliptical (dE), with this progenitor dE having MB ≈ -16 mag and mass ~109M≈.

description: We present new imaging and spectral data for globular clusters (GCs) around NGC 4365 and NGC 4342. NGC 4342 is a compact, X-ray luminous S0 galaxy with an unusually massive central black hole. NGC 4365 is another atypical galaxy that dominates the W' group of which NGC 4342 is a member. Using imaging from the MegaCam instrument on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) we identify a stream of GCs between the two galaxies and extending beyond NGC 4342. The stream of GCs is spatially coincident with a stream/plume of stars previously identified. We find that the photometric colours of the stream GCs match those associated with NGC 4342, and that the recession velocity of the combined GCs from the stream and NGC 4342 match the recession velocity for NGC 4342 itself. These results suggest that NGC 4342 is being stripped of GCs (and stars) as it undergoes a tidal interaction with the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 4365. We compare NGC 4342 to two well-known, tidally stripped galaxies (M32 and NGC 4486B) and find various similarities. We also discuss previous claims by Bogdan et al. (2012a) that NGC 4342 cannot be undergoing significant tidal stripping because it hosts a large dark matter halo.

Notes. The application of this name has undergone a recent change (Gibbs et al. 2013). Recent examination of the lectotype of Halictus quadrimaculatus Robertson 1890 (described as 4-maculatus; Robertson’s name was preoccupied by Hylaeus quadrimaculatus Schenck, 1853 [= Lasioglossum interruptum (Panzer, 1798) of Europe] so was replaced by Halictus macoupinensis Robertson 1895), designated by Cresson (1928), revealed that that name macoupinensis has been used incorrectly by most authors. The type series was composite, and records of L. macoupinense in earlier literature, including some of the type series, do not match the lectotype and are instead referable to L. birkmanni. The name L. macoupinense is still in use, but study of the lectotype shows it to be a senior synonym of the bee widely known (e.g., Mitchell 1960; Hurd 1979; Moure & Hurd 1987) as Evylaeus divergens (Lovell) (see below).

description: We study the mass and anisotropy distribution of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 5846 using stars, as well as the red and blue globular cluster (GC) subpopulations. We break degeneracies in the dynamical models by taking advantage of the different phase space distributions of the two GC subpopulations to unambiguously constrain the mass of the galaxy and the anisotropy of the GC system. Red GCs show the same spatial distribution and behaviour as the starlight, whereas blue GCs have a shallower density profile, a larger velocity dispersion and a lower kurtosis, all of which suggest a different orbital distribution. We use a dispersion-kurtosis Jeans analysis and find that the solutions of separate analyses for the two GC subpopulations overlap in the halo parameter space. The solution converges on a massive dark matter halo, consistent with expectations from Lambda cold dark matter (Lambda CDM) and 7-year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP7) cosmology in terms of virial mass (log M-DM similar to 13.3 M&8857;) and concentration (c(vir) similar to 8). This is the first such analysis that solves the dynamics of the different GC subpopulations in a self-consistent manner. Our method improves the uncertainties on the halo parameter determination by a factor of 2 and opens new avenues for the use of elliptical galaxy dynamics as tests of predictions from cosmological simulations. The implied stellar mass-to-light ratio derived from the dynamical modelling is fully consistent with a Salpeter initial mass function (IMF) and rules out a bottom light IMF. The different GC subpopulations show markedly distinct orbital distributions at large radii, with red GCs having an anisotropy parameter beta similar to 0.4 outside similar to 3R(e) (R-e is the effective radius), and the blue GCs having beta similar to 0.15 at the same radii, while centrally (similar to 1 R-e) they are both isotropic. We discuss the implications of our findings within the two-phase formation scenario for early-type galaxies.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen entanglement and steering in two-well Bose-Einstein-condensate ground states

description: We consider how to generate and detect Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) entanglement and the steering paradox between groups of atoms in two separated potential wells in a Bose-Einstein condensate. We present experimental criteria for this form of entanglement and propose experimental strategies for detecting entanglement using two- or four-mode ground states. These approaches use spatial and/or internal modes. We also present higher-order criteria that act as signatures to detect the multiparticle entanglement present in this system. We point out the difference between spatial entanglement using separated detectors and other types of entanglement that do not require spatial separation. The four-mode approach with two spatial and two internal modes results in an entanglement signature with spatially separated detectors, conceptually similar to the original EPR paradox.
Towards an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox between two macroscopic atomic ensembles at room temperature

Year: 2024

description: Experiments have reported the entanglement of two spatially separated macroscopic atomic ensembles at room temperature (Krauter et al 2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 107 080503; Julsgaard et al 2001 Nature 413 400). We show how an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox is realizable with this experiment. Our proposed test involves violation of an inferred Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which is a sufficient condition for an EPR paradox. This is a stronger test of nonlocality than entanglement. Our proposal would enable the first definitive confirmation of quantum EPR paradox correlations between two macroscopic objects at room temperature. This is a necessary intermediate step towards a nonlocal experiment with causal measurement separations. As well as having fundamental significance, the realization of an atomic EPR paradox could provide a resource for novel applications in quantum technology.

description: The out-of-plane crushing behaviour of aluminium hexagonal honeycombs containing different percentages of holes (i.e., the fraction of penetrated cells to the total) was extensively investigated over a wide range of strain rates where each test was conducted at constant compression velocity. Strength enhancement due to the increase of the strain rate and the entrapped air was studied. It is found that the strain hardening of honeycomb structures during the dynamic crush is mostly attributed to the pressure change caused by the entrapped air. The leaking rate, , was then studied and found to be dependent on the strain and strain rate, and independent of the wall thickness to edge length ratio, t/l. An empirical constitutive relation describing the plastic collapse stress in relation to the t/l ratio, the strain and strain rate is proposed, which agrees well with the experimental results.

description: The present paper outlines a basic theoretical treatment of decoherence and dephasing effects in interferometry based on single component Bose-Einstein condensates in double potential wells, where two condensate modes may be involved. Results for both two mode condensates and the simpler single mode condensate case are presented. The approach involves a hybrid phase space distribution functional method where the condensate modes are described via a truncated Wigner representation, whilst the basically unoccupied non-condensate modes are described via a positive P representation. The Hamiltonian for the system is described in terms of quantum field operators for the condensate and non-condensate modes. The functional Fokker-Planck equation for the double phase space distribution functional is derived. Equivalent Ito stochastic equations for the condensate and non-condensate fields that replace the field operators are obtained, and stochastic averages of products of these fields give the quantum correlation functions that can be used to interpret interferometry experiments. The stochastic field equations are the sum of a deterministic term obtained from the drift vector in the functional Fokker-Planck equation, and a noise field whose stochastic properties are determined from the diffusion matrix in the functional Fokker-Planck equation. The stochastic properties of the noise field terms are similar to those for Gaussian-Markov processes in that the stochastic averages of odd numbers of noise fields are zero and those for even numbers of noise field terms are the sums of products of stochastic averages associated with pairs of noise fields. However each pair is represented by an element of the diffusion matrix rather than products of the noise fields themselves, as in the case of Gaussian-Markov processes. The treatment starts from a generalised mean field theory for two condensate modes, where generalised coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations are obtained for the modes and matrix mechanics equations are derived for the amplitudes describing possible fragmentations of the condensate between the two modes. These self-consistent sets of equations are derived via the Dirac-Frenkel variational principle. Numerical studies for interferometry experiments would involve using the solutions from the generalised mean field theory in calculations for the stochastic fields from the Ito stochastic field equations.

County records: Allegan, Clare, Clinton, Delta, Dickinson, Kalamazoo, Kalkaska, Kent, Lake, Leelanau, Muskegon, Newaygo, Osceola, Ottawa, St. Joseph, Van Buren.
Notes. This solitary species is best known from the southeastern and south-central United States, but it extends north locally to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It is relatively common along the east coast of Lake Michigan where it visits a variety of yellow composite flowers. Southern populations of L. lustrans have been reported to be very narrow oligoleges of Pyrrhopappus (Asteraceae), only occasionally visiting other members of the tribe Cichoriae (Daly 1961; Michener 1947b). Northern populations, however, occur outside the range of Pyrrhopappus (Estes & Thorp 1975) and regularly visit a broader array of species in the tribe. Arduser (2010) and Grundel et al. (2011) both report L. lustrans visiting Krigia species in the north. Lasioglossum lustrans has also been observed visiting other genera of Cichoriae in Michigan, including Crepis and Taraxacum (J.G. pers. obs.).
Lasioglossum lustrans is recognizable by the absence of vein 1rs-m through most of its range, but a small proportion of northern specimens from Wisconsin and Michigan have this vein present (Gibbs 2010a; Gibbs et al. 2013).

Notes. The female lectotype of Halictus quadrimaculatus (see Cresson 1928) in the ANSP belongs to the species most often referred to as L. divergens in the literature (often in combination with either Halictus or Evylaeus) (Gibbs et al. 2013) although the name macoupinensis (a replacement name for H. quadrimaculatus) has been most often used to refer to L. birkmanni (see above).

description: A phase space theory approach for treating dynamical behaviour of Bose-Einstein condensates applicable to situations such as interferometry with BEC in time-dependent double well potentials is presented. Time-dependent mode functions are used, chosen so that one, two,...highly occupied modes describe well the physics of interacting condensate bosons in time dependent potentials at well below the transition temperature. Time dependent mode annihilation, creation operators are represented by time dependent phase variables, but time independent total field annihilation, creation operators are represented by time independent field functions. Two situations are treated, one (mode theory) is where specific mode annihilation, creation operators and their related phase variables and distribution functions are dealt with, the other (field theory) is where only field creation, annihilation operators and their related field functions and distribution functionals are involved. The field theory treatment is more suitable when large boson numbers are involved. The paper focuses on the hybrid approach, where the modes are divided up between condensate (highly occupied) modes and non-condensate (sparsely occupied) modes. It is found that there are extra terms in the Ito stochastic equations both for the stochastic phases and stochastic fields, involving coupling coefficients defined via overlap integrals between mode functions and their time derivatives. For the hybrid approach both the Fokker-Planck and functional Fokker-Planck equations differ from those derived via the correspondence rules, the drift vectors are unchanged but the diffusion matrices contain additional terms involving the coupling coefficients. Results are also presented for the combined approach where all the modes are treated as one set. Here both the Fokker-Planck and functional Fokker-Planck equations are exactly the same as those derived via the correspondence rules. However, although the Ito stochastic field equations are also unchanged, the Ito equations for the stochastic phases contain an extra classical term involving the coupling coefficients.

description: We have conducted the first blind Hi survey covering 480 deg2 and a heliocentric velocity range from 300 to 1900kms−1 to investigate the Hi content of the nearby spiral-rich Ursa Major region and to look for previously uncatalogued gas-rich objects. Here we present the catalogue of Hi sources. The Hi data were obtained with the four-beam receiver mounted on the 76.2-m Lovell telescope [full width at half-maximum (FWHM) 12 arcmin] at the Jodrell Bank Observatory (UK) as part of the Hi Jodrell All Sky Survey (HIJASS). We use the automated source finder duchamp and identify 166 Hi sources in the data cubes with Hi masses in the range of 107–1010.5 Mo. Our Ursa Major Hi catalogue includes 10 first-time detections in the 21-cm emission line. We identify optical counterparts for 165 Hi sources (99 per cent). For 54 Hi sources (∼33 per cent) we find numerous optical counterparts in the HIJASS beam, indicating a high density of galaxies and likely tidal interactions. Four of these Hi systems are discussed in detail. We find only one Hi source (1 per cent) without a visible optical counterpart out of the 166 Hi detections. Green Bank Telescope (FWHM 9 arcmin) follow-up observations confirmed this Hi source and its Hi properties. The nature of this detection is discussed and compared to similar sources in other Hi surveys.

description: Objective: To investigate the relationship between eating disorders, body mass index (BMI), sleep disorders, and daytime functioning. Design: Survey. Setting: The Netherlands. Participants: N=574 Dutch young adults (18-35 years old). Measurements: Participants completed a survey on eating and sleep habits including the Eating Disorder Screen for Primary care (ESP) and SLEEP-50 questionnaire subscales for sleep apnea, insomnia, circadian rhythm disorder (CRD), and daytime functioning. SLEEP-50 outcomes of participants who screened negative (#2) and positive (.2) on the ESP were compared. In addition, SLEEP-50 scores of groups of participants with different ESP scores (0-4) and different BMI groups (ie, underweight, healthy weight, overweight, and obese) were compared using nonparametric statistics. Results: Almost 12% (n=67) of participants screened positive for having an eating disorder. Relative to participants without eating disorders, participants who screened positive for eating disorders reported significantly higher scores on sleep apnea (3.7 versus 2.9, P=0.012), insomnia (7.7 versus 5.5, P,0.0001), CRD (2.9 versus 2.3, P=0.011), and impairment of daytime functioning (8.8 versus 5.8, P=0.0001). ESP scores were associated with insomnia (r=0.117, P=0.005), sleep apnea (r=0.118, P=0.004), sleep quality (r=-0.104, P=0.012), and daytime functioning (r=0.225, P,0.0001), but not with CRD (r=0.066, P=0.112). BMI correlated significantly with ESP scores (r=0.172, P,0.0001) and scores on sleep apnea (r=0.171, P,0.0001). When controlling for BMI, the partial correlation between ESP and sleep apnea remained significant (r=0.10, P=0.015). Conclusion: Participants who score positive for eating disorders scored significantly higher on sleep disorder scales, and reported significantly more impairment of daytime functioning.

description: Many rural communities are vulnerable social-ecological systems (SES) that must do more than become resilient to future environmental and social shocks: they must transform to achieve sustainability. We aimed first to conceptually explore the proposition that SES characteristics (identity, feedbacks, structure, and functions) necessary for transformation may be distinct from those necessary for adaptive maintenance or resilience, and second, to propose metrics that may be used to assess these two types of system changes. We did this by interrogating literature and by investigating two rural towns in Australia using a combination of quantitative methods and focus groups to interrogate community social networks, capitals (human, natural, built, and social) and future scenarios. Results indicated that (1) it is practicable to carry out a holistic assessment of SES characteristics (identity, feedbacks, structure, and functions), and (2) purposeful, positive transformation is supported by vision, identification with place, unhappiness (with the status quo), high personal contribution to social capital, open social networks, and latent capital(s). We conclude that rural communities possess capacities for adaptive maintenance (resilience) and for system-wide transformation, and that the metrics used to assess each are sometimes discrete, sometimes common.

description: We investigate the dependence of galaxy sizes and star formation rates (SFRs) on their environment using a mass-limited sample of quiescent and star-forming galaxies with log(M∗M) ≥ 9.5 at selected from the NEWFIRM medium-band Survey (NMBS). Using the Galaxy Environment Evolution Collaboration 2 spectroscopic cluster catalog and the accurate photometric redshifts from the NMBS, we select quiescent and star-forming cluster (σ = 490 km s-1) galaxies within two virial radius, Rvir, intervals of 2 > R vir > 0.5 and R vir < 0.5. Galaxies residing outside of the 2 R vir of both the cluster centers and the additional candidate over-densities are defined as our field sample. Galaxy structural parameters are measured from the COSMOS legacy Hubble Space Telescope/ACS F814W image. The sizes and Sérsic indices of quiescent field and cluster galaxies have the same distribution regardless of R vir. However, cluster star-forming galaxies within 0.5 R vir have lower mass-normalized average sizes by 16 ± 7%, and a higher fraction of Sérsic indices with , than field star-forming galaxies. The average SFRs of star-forming cluster galaxies show a trend of decreasing SFR with clustocentric radius. The mass-normalized average SFR of cluster star-forming galaxies is a factor of 2-2.5(7-9σ) lower than that of star-forming galaxies in the field. While we find no significant dependence on environment for quiescent galaxies, the properties of star-forming galaxies are affected, which could be the result of environment acting on their gas content.

description: We report on total cross section measurements for positron scattering from the chiral enantiomers (+)-methyl (R)-2-chloropropionate and (–)-methyl (S)-2-chloropropionate. The energy range of the present study was 0.1–50 eV, while the energy resolution of our incident positron beam was ∼0.25 eV (FWHM). As positrons emanating from β decay in radioactive nuclei have a high degree of spin polarization, which persists after moderation, we were particularly interested in probing whether the positron helicity differentiates between the measured total cross sections of the two enantiomers. No major differences were, however, observed. Finally, quantum chemical calculations, using the density functional theory based B3LYP-DGTZVP model within the gaussian 09 package, were performed as a part of this work in order to assist us in interpreting some aspects of our data.

description: Methods for the quantification of statistically valid measures of the uncertainties associated with X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) data obtained from dilute solutions using fluorescence measurements are developed. Experimental data obtained from 10 mM solutions of the organometallic compound ferrocene, Fe(C 5H 5) 2, are analysed within this framework and, following correction for various electronic and geometrical factors, give robust estimates of the standard errors of the individual measurements. The reliability of the refinement statistics of standard current XAFS structure approaches that do not include propagation of experimental uncertainties to assess subtle structural distortions is assessed in terms of refinements obtained for the staggered and eclipsed conformations of the C 5H 5 rings of ferrocene. Standard approaches (XFIT, IFEFFIT) give refinement statistics that appear to show strong, but opposite, preferences for the different conformations. Incorporation of experimental uncertainties into an IFEFFIT-like analysis yield refinement statistics for the staggered and eclipsed forms of ferrocene which show a far more realistic preference for the eclipsed form which accurately reflects the reliability of the analysis. Moreover, the more strongly founded estimates of the refined parameter uncertainties allow more direct comparison with those obtained by other techniques. These XAFS-based estimates of the bond distances have accuracies comparable with those obtained using single-crystal diffraction techniques and are superior in terms of their use in comparisons of experimental and computed structures.

description: We have investigated the electronic structure of three cyclic dipeptides: cyclo(Histidyl-Glycyl) (cHisGly), cyclo(Tyrosyl-Prolyl) (cTyrPro), and cyclo(Phenylalanyl-Phenylalanyl) (cPhePhe) in the vapor phase, by means of photoemission spectroscopy and theoretical modeling. The last compound was evaporated from the solid linear dipeptide, but cyclised, losing water to form cPhePhe in the gas phase. The results are compared with our previous studies of three other cyclopeptides. Experimental valence and core level spectra have been interpreted in the light of calculations to identify the basic chemical properties associated with the central diketopiperazine ring, and with the additional functional groups. The valence spectra are generally characterized by a restricted set of outer valence orbitals separated by a gap from most other valence orbitals. The theoretically simulated core and valence spectra of all three cyclic dipeptides agree reasonably well with the experimental spectra. The central ring and the side chains act as independent chromophores whose spectra do not influence one another, except for prolyl dipeptides, where the pyrrole ring is fused with the central ring. In this case, significant changes in the valence and core level spectra were observed, and explained by stronger hybridization of the valence orbitals.

description: A model of infrared neural stimulation (INS) has been developed to allow the temporal characteristics of different stimulation parameters and geometries to be better understood. The model uses a finite element approach to solve the heat equation and allow detailed analysis of heat during INS with both microsecond and millisecond laser pulses. When compared with experimental data, the model provides insight into the mechanisms behind INS. In particular, the analysis suggests that there may be two broad regimes of INS: the process tends to be limited by the total pulse energy for pulse lengths below 100 μs, while the temperature gradient with respect to time becomes more important above 100 μs.
