description: The saturation of the two Weinberg sum rules is studied at finite temperature, using recent independent QCD sum rule results for the thermal behaviour of hadronic parameters in the vector and axial-vector channels. Both sum rules are very well satisfied from $T=0$ up to $T/T_c \simeq 0.7-0.8$. At higher temperatures close to $T_c$ a hadronic, pion-loop contribution in the space-like region proportional to $T^2$, present at leading order in the vector but not in the axial-vector channel, induces an asymmetry leading to a small deviation. In this region, though, QCD sum rules for the hadronic parameters begin to have no solutions, as the hadronic widths of the $ρ$ and the $a_1$ mesons diverge signalling deconfinement. Close to, and at $T=T_c$ there are no pions left in the medium and chiral symmetry is restored, so that the sum rules are trivially satisfied.

description: A laserwire transverse electron beam size measurement system has been developed and operated at the Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) at KEK. Special electron beam optics were developed to create an approximately 1 x 100 μm (vertical x horizontal) electron beam at the laserwire location, which was profiled using a 150 mJ, 71 ps laser pulse with a wavelength of 532 nm. The precise characterisation of the laser propagation allows the non-Gaussian transverse profiles of the electron beam caused by the laser divergence to be deconvolved. A minimum vertical electron beam size of 1.07 ${\pm}$ 0.06 (stat.) ${\pm}$ 0.05 (sys.) μm was measured. A vertically focussing quadrupole just before the laserwire was varied whilst making laserwire measurements and the projected vertical emittance was measured to be 82.56 ${\pm}$ 3.04 pm rad.

description: We study the role of feedback from supernovae and black holes in the evolution of the star formation rate function (SFRF) of z~4-7 galaxies. We use a new set of cosmological hydrodynamic simulations, ANGUS (AustraliaN GADGET-3 early Universe Simulations), run with a modified and improved version of the parallel TreePM-smoothed particle hydrodynamics code GADGET-3 called P-GADGET3(XXL), that includes a self-consistent implementation of stellar evolution and metal enrichment. In our simulations both Supernova (SN) driven galactic winds and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) act simultaneously in a complex interplay. The SFRF is insensitive to feedback prescription at z>5, meaning that it cannot be used to discriminate between feedback models during reionisation. However, the SFRF is sensitive to the details of feedback prescription at lower redshift. By exploring different SN driven wind velocities and regimes for the AGN feedback, we find that the key factor for reproducing the observed SFRFs is a combination of "strong" SN winds and early AGN feedback in low mass galaxies. Conversely, we show that the choice of initial mass function and inclusion of metal cooling have less impact on the evolution of the SFRF. When variable winds are considered, we find that a non-aggressive wind scaling is needed to reproduce the SFRFs at z>4. Otherwise, the amount of objects with low SFRs is greatly suppressed and at the same time winds are not effective enough in the most massive systems.

description: Characterizing a microlensing planet is done from modeling an observed lensing light curve. In this process, it is often confronted that solutions of different lensing parameters result in similar light curves, causing difficulties in uniquely interpreting the lens system, and thus understanding the causes of different types of degeneracy is important. In this work, we show that incomplete coverage of a planetary perturbation can result in degenerate solutions even for events where the planetary signal is detected with a high level of statistical significance. We demonstrate the degeneracy for an actually observed event OGLE-2012-BLG-0455/MOA-2012-BLG-206. The peak of this high-magnification event $(A_{\rm max}\sim400)$ exhibits very strong deviation from a point-lens model with $Δχ^{2}\gtrsim4000$ for data sets with a total number of measurement 6963. From detailed modeling of the light curve, we find that the deviation can be explained by four distinct solutions, i.e., two very different sets of solutions, each with a two-fold degeneracy. While the two-fold (so-called "close/wide") degeneracy is well-understood, the degeneracy between the radically different solutions is not previously known. The model light curves of this degeneracy differ substantially in the parts that were not covered by observation, indicating that the degeneracy is caused by the incomplete coverage of the perturbation. It is expected that the frequency of the degeneracy introduced in this work will be greatly reduced with the improvement of the current lensing survey and follow-up experiments and the advent of new surveys.

Trace of broken integrability in stationary correlation properties

description: We show that the breaking of integrability in the fundamental one-dimensional model of bosons with contact interactions has consequences on the stationary correlation properties of the system. We calculate the energies and correlation functions of the integrable Lieb-Liniger case, comparing the exact Bethe-ansatz solution with a corresponding Jastrow ansatz. Then we examine the non-integrable case of different interaction strengths between each pair of atoms by means of a variationally optimized Jastrow ansatz, proposed in analogy to the Laughlin ansatz. We show that properties of the integrable state are more stable close to the Tonks-Girardeau regime than for weak interactions. All energies and correlation functions are given in terms of explicit analytical expressions enabled by the Jastrow ansatz. We finally compare the correlations of the integrable and non-integrable cases and show that apart from symmetry breaking the behavior changes dramatically, with additional and more pronounced maxima and minima interference peaks appearing.

description: We report the observation of the skyrmion lattice in the chiral multiferroic insulator Cu2OSeO3 using Cu L3-edge resonant soft x-ray diffraction. We observe the unexpected existence of two distinct skyrmion sublattices that arise from inequivalent Cu sites with chemically identical coordination numbers but different magnetically active orbitals. The skyrmion sublattices are rotated with respect to each other implying a long wavelength modulation of the lattice. The modulation vector could be controlled with an applied magnetic field, associating this Moire-like phase with a continuous phase transition. Our findings will open a new class of science involving manipulation of quantum topological states.

description: Observations have shown that the spatial distribution of satellite galaxies is not random, but aligned with the major axes of central galaxies. This alignment is dependent on galaxy properties, such that red satellites are more strongly aligned than blue satellites. Theoretical work done to interpret this phenomena has found that it is due to the non-spherical nature of dark matter halos. However, most studies over-predict the alignment signal under the assumption that the central galaxy shape follows the shape of the host halo. It is also not clear whether the color dependence of alignment is due to an assembly bias or an evolution effect. In this paper we study these problems using a cosmological N-body simulation. Subhalos are used to trace the positions of satellite galaxies. It is found that the shape of dark matter halos are mis-aligned at different radii. If the central galaxy shares the same shape as the inner host halo, then the alignment effect is weaker and agrees with observational data. However, it predicts almost no dependence of alignment on the color of satellite galaxies, though the late accreted subhalos show stronger alignment with the outer layer of the host halo than their early accreted counterparts. We find that this is due to the limitation of pure N-body simulations that satellites galaxies without associated subhalos ('orphan galaxies') are not resolved. These orphan (mostly red) satellites often reside in the inner region of host halos and should follow the shape of the host halo in the inner region.

Episodic jet power extracted from a spinning black hole surrounded by a neutrino-dominated accretion flow in gamma-ray bursts

description: It was suggested that the relativistic jets in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are powered via the Blandford-Znajek (BZ) mechanism or the annihilation of neutrinos and anti-neutrinos from a neutrino cooling-dominated accretion flow (NDAF). The advection and diffusion of the large-scale magnetic field of a NDAF is calculated, and the external magnetic field is found to be dragged inward efficiently by the accretion flow for a typical magnetic Prandtl number P_m=1. The maximal BZ jet power can be ~10^53-10^54 erg/sec for an extreme Kerr black hole, if an external magnetic field with 10^14 Gauss is advected by the NDAF. This is roughly consistent with the field strength of the disk formed after a tidal disrupted magnetar. The accretion flow near the black hole horizon is arrested by the magnetic field if the accretion rate is below than a critical value for a given external field. The arrested accretion flow fails to drag the field inward and the field strength decays, and then the accretion re-starts, which leads to oscillating accretion. The typical timescale of such episodic accretion is in an order of one second. This can qualitatively explain the observed oscillation in the soft extend emission of short-type GRBs.

SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL FOR BLURBALL
Publisher: name: IEEE Signal Processing Society
Year: 2025

description: Motion blur reduces the sharpness and clarity of fast-moving objects, making object detection significantly more challenging. In sports, this effect often transforms a ball from a distinct dot into a streak, complicating its precise localization. The standard labeling convention defines the ball’s position at the front edge of the blur streak, introducing asymmetry into the detection process and disregarding valuable motion blur information that directly correlates with velocity. In this pa- per, we propose a new labeling convention that positions the ball at the midpoint of the blur streak whenever blur is present and explicitly includes motion blur attributes. We demonstrate that this labeling strategy improves detection performance across all tested models for table tennis ball tracking. Additionally, we introduce the first model capable of jointly estimating both ball position and blur characteristics. By leveraging blur information, our approach enables earlier and more accurate trajectory prediction, paving the way for improved tracking in high-speed sports.

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: We use a combination of analytical and numerical techniques to study the phase diagram of the frustrated Heisenberg model on the bilayer honeycomb lattice. Using the Schwinger boson description of the spin operators followed by a mean field decoupling, the magnetic phase diagram is studied as a function of the frustration coupling $J_{2}$ and the interlayer coupling $J_{\bot}$. The presence of both magnetically ordered and disordered phases is investigated by means of the evaluation of ground-state energy, spin gap, local magnetization and spin-spin correlations. We observe a phase with a spin gap and short range Néel correlations that survives for non-zero next-nearest-neighbor interaction and interlayer coupling. Furthermore, we detect signatures of a reentrant behavior in the melting of Néel phase and symmetry restoring when the system undergoes a transition from an on-layer nematic valence bond crystal phase to an interlayer valence bond crystal phase. We complement our work with exact diagonalization on small clusters and dimer-series expansion calculations, together with a linear spin wave approach to study the phase diagram as a function of the spin $S$, the frustration and the interlayer couplings.

description: Verification of PCTL properties of MDPs with convex uncertainties has been investigated recently by Puggelli et al. However, model checking algorithms typically suffer from state space explosion. In this paper, we address probabilistic bisimulation to reduce the size of such an MDPs while preserving PCTL properties it satisfies. We discuss different interpretations of uncertainty in the models which are studied in the literature and that result in two different definitions of bisimulations. We give algorithms to compute the quotients of these bisimulations in time polynomial in the size of the model and exponential in the uncertain branching. Finally, we show by a case study that large models in practice can have small branching and that a substantial state space reduction can be achieved by our approach.

The one-parameter family of solutions is constructed in Euclidean Romans F(4) gauged supergravity in six dimensions, and uplifts to massive type IIA supergravity. By renormalizing the theory with appropriate counterterms we evaluate the renormalized on-shell action for the solutions. We also evaluate the large N limit of the gauge theory partition function, and find precise agreement.

Taking into account the present experimental data, we further give the corresponding phenomenological analysis, which is valuable to test whether each $a_2$ state can be assigned into the $a_2$ meson family. What is more important is that the prediction of their decay behaviors will be helpful for future experimental study of the $a_2$ states.

description: IFLA/FAIFE strongly advocates intellectual freedom as the basis of democracy and the core of the library concept. The spirit and philosophy of Open Access are in sync with FAIFE owing to its visible role in sharing intellectual freedom for building information democracy. The present paper is dedicated to the new and emerging technology-driven tools for researchers and academicians to access or discover OA research more easily and effectively. The main focus of the paper is to introduce to the readers about the various technology-driven tools for effective and immediate Open Access (OA) research discovery. Under this objective, mission and services of the OA discovery system CORE has been explained. Another powerful tool for OA discovery and dissemination is OA Button which comes with the collaboration of unique service tools like, InstantILL, DeliverOA, EmbedOA, OAsheet and shareyourpaper. In addition to the above two tools, this study further discusses two more stand-alone tools namely, Dataverse and Zenodo. These tools are mainly familiar with their data archiving policies. Testing the features of these tools and describing their utility and application reveal that they can help the users as well as libraries in making effective use of OA resources without any delay while also enhancing the visibility of such scholarly resources.

description: The Near Eastern fire salamander (Salamandra infraimmaculata) reaches its southern distribution range in Israel. Although the population structure has been analysed in central Israel and at the southern distribution limit, we lack knowledge on populations in the northern area, such as along Mount Hermon. S. infraimmaculata occurs at Mt. Hermon along an altitudinal gradient and appears to be fragmented by urban and agricultural landscape. We studied the genetic structure of four populations based on microsatellite loci and the mitochondrial D-loop to determine the genetic diversity and connectivity between populations. We observed moderate gene flow at lower parts, i.e. from Tel Dan and Nimrod Castle to Banias indicating extant but limited connectivity. Genetic diversity and gene flow declined along the altitudinal gradient at Mt. Hermon, reaching rock-bottom levels in the highest located population of Nimrod Pool. The observed isolation-by-elevation gradient might induce a higher extinction risk for the highland populations of S. infraimmaculata.

description: Die Frage nach dem Verhältnis zwischen fachmathematischer Ausbildung im Lehramtstudium und der Tätigkeit als Mathematiklehrkraft im Berufsfeld beschäftigt nicht nur die Mathematik und die Mathematikdidaktik seit langem, sondern auch viele Lehramtsstudierende. Entsprechend stellt sich die Frage, an welchen Stellen Berufsfeldbezüge in die fachmathematischen Studienanteile des Lehramtstudiums integriert und wie diese im Rahmen von Veranstaltungen umgesetzt werden können. Basierend auf einer Zusammenfassung des Entwicklungs- und Forschungsstands zum Thema wird ein Rahmenmodell für die Konzeption berufsfeldbezogener Lerngelegenheiten in fachmathematischen Veranstaltungen des Lehramtstudiums vorgeschlagen und anhand von Projekten der „Qualitätsoffensive Lehrerbildung“ an der LMU illustriert.

description: The fascinating and anomalous behaviour of a chain that instead of falling straight down under gravity, first rises and then falls, acquiring a steady shape in space that resembles a fountain's sprinkle, has recently attracted both popular and academic interest. The paper presents a complete mathematical solution of this problem, whose distinctive feature is the introduction of a number of dissipative shocks which can be resolved exactly.

description: In this case, a philosophy student and vegetarian contemplates whether animal disenhancement  -  engineering the cognitive and physical abilities of animals so that they cannot suffer psychological and physical harms  -  would make factory farming more morally acceptable. He also wonders whether philosophical arguments in favor of animal disenhancement could be extended to support human disenhancement.

description: This article follows the story of prohibited immigrant Noory Aziz and the long battle between Department of Immigration officials and Tasmanian Liberal MP Michael Hodgman over his residency status. It examines how Hodgman and the Department presented competing narratives around Aziz with each narrative informed by the shifting racial politics and social contexts of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Drawing on the Department’s detailed archival record, it is argued that each contending side in this battle constructed a concept of ‘immigrant’ that represented, on the one hand, the undeserving migrant of poor character and, on the other, the ideal migrant, exemplary of the ‘type’ of immigrant that Australia ought to favour.
Effective field theory approach to top-quark decay at next-to-leading order in QCD

description: We present analytical results for top-quark decay processes, in an effective field theory beyond the Standard Model, at next-to-leading order in QCD. We parametrize new physics effects using dimension-six operators, and consider all operators that give rise to non-standard interactions of the top quark. We investigate both the flavor-conserving and flavor-changing decay modes, including their two-body and three-body semi-leptonic final states. The QCD mixing among relevant operators are also taken into account. These results provide all information needed for a complete model-independent study of top-quark decay at next-to-leading order accuracy, paving the way to global analyses for new physics effects in an effective field theory approach.

description: In the context of order statistics of discrete time random walks (RW), we investigate the statistics of the gap, $G_n$, and the number of time steps, $L_n$, between the two highest positions of a Markovian one-dimensional random walker, starting from $x_0 = 0$, after $n$ time steps (taking the $x$-axis vertical). The jumps $η_i = x_i - x_{i-1}$ are independent and identically distributed random variables drawn from a symmetric probability distribution function (PDF), $f(η)$, the Fourier transform of which has the small $k$ behavior $1 - \hat f(k) \propto |k|^μ$, with $0 < μ\leq 2$. For $μ=2$, the variance of the jump distribution is finite and the RW (properly scaled) converges to a Brownian motion. For $0

description: We report superconducting properties of PrO1-xFxBiS2 compounds, synthesized by the vacuum encapsulation technique. The synthesized PrO1-xFxBiS2 (x=0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9) samples are crystallized in a tetragonal P4/nmm space group. Both transport and DC magnetic susceptibility measurements showed bulk superconductivity below 4 K. The maximum Tc is obtained for x = 0.7 sample. Under applied magnetic field both Tc onset and Tc (R =0) decrease to lower temperatures. We estimated highest upper critical field [Hc2(0)] for PrO0.3F0.7BiS2 sample to be above 4 T (Tesla). The thermally activated flux flow (TAFF) activation energy (U0) is estimated 54.63 meV in 0.05 Tesla field for PrO0.3F0.7BiS2 sample. Hall measurement results showed that electron charge carriers are the dominating ones in these compounds. Thermoelectric effects (Thermal conductivity and Seebeck coefficient) data suggest strong electron-electron correlations in this material.
