A Noncompact Weyl-Einstein-Yang-Mills Model: A Semiclassical Quantum Gravity

description: We construct and study perturbative unitarity (i.e., ghost and tachyon analysis) of a $3+1$-dimensional noncompact Weyl-Einstein-Yang-Mills model. The model describes a local noncompact Weyl's scale plus $SU(N)$ phase invariant Higgs-like field, conformally coupled to a generic Weyl-invariant dynamical background. Here, the Higgs-like sector generates the Weyl's conformal invariance of system. The action does not admit any dimensionful parameter and genuine presence of de Sitter vacuum spontaneously breaks the noncompact gauge symmetry in an analogous manner to the Standard Model Higgs mechanism. As to flat spacetime, the dimensionful parameter is generated within the dimensional transmutation in quantum field theories, and thus the symmetry is radiatively broken through the one-loop Effective Coleman-Weinberg potential. We show that the mere expectation of reducing to Einstein's gravity in the broken phases forbids anti-de Sitter space to be its stable vacua. The model is unitary in de Sitter and flat vacua around which a massless graviton, $N^2-1$ massless scalar bosons, $N$ massless Dirac fermions, $N^2-1$ Proca-type massive Abelian and non-Abelian vector bosons are generically propagated.

description: We have estimated the spiral pattern speed in the Galaxy $Ω_p$ from a large sample of young open star clusters (OSCs). For this purpose, we have used 2494 OSCs younger than 50 Myr. Their mean proper motions, line-of-sight velocities, and distances were calculated by Hunt and Reffert (2023) based on data from the Gaia~DR3 catalogue. Three methods have been applied to estimate $Ω_p$. They all are based on the linear Lin-Shu spiral density wave theory. We have obtained an estimate of $Ω_p=24.26\pm0.52$~km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$ by the first method, which is most reliable in our view, using the velocity perturbations $f_R$ and $f_θ$ found through a spectral analysis of the radial, $V_R$, and residual rotation, $ΔV_{\rm circ},$ velocities. Using the second method, we have found the velocity perturbations $f_R$ and $f_θ$ by solving the basic kinematic equations together with the Galactic rotation parameters and obtained an estimate of $Ω_p= 23.45\pm0.53$~km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$. We have found $Ω_p= 28.9\pm2.8$~km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$ by the third method based on an analysis of the position angles of OSCs at their birth time $θ_{\rm birth}$.

description: Iron is essential for many biological processes, but iron levels must be tightly regulated to avoid harmful effects of both iron deficiency and overload. Here, we perform genome-wide association studies on four iron-related biomarkers (serum iron, serum ferritin, transferrin saturation, total iron-binding capacity) in the Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT), the Michigan Genomics Initiative (MGI), and the SardiNIA study, followed by their meta-analysis with publicly available summary statistics, analyzing up to 257,953 individuals. We identify 123 genetic loci associated with iron traits. Among 19 novel protein-altering variants, we observe a rare missense variant (rs367731784) in HUNT, which suggests a role for DNAJC13 in transferrin recycling. We further validate recently published results using genetic risk scores for each biomarker in HUNT (6% variance in serum iron explained) and present linear and non-linear Mendelian randomization analyses of the traits on all-cause mortality. We find evidence of a harmful effect of increased serum iron and transferrin saturation in linear analyses that estimate population-averaged effects. However, there was weak evidence of a protective effect of increasing serum iron at the very low end of its distribution. Our findings contribute to our understanding of the genes affecting iron status and its consequences on human health.

description: Thermal states are the bedrock of statistical physics. Nevertheless, when and how they actually arise in closed quantum systems is not fully understood. We consider this question for systems with local Hamiltonians on finite quantum lattices. In a first step, we show that states with exponentially decaying correlations equilibrate after a quantum quench. Then we show that the equilibrium state is locally equivalent to a thermal state, provided that the free energy of the equilibrium state is sufficiently small and the thermal state has exponentially decaying correlations. As an application, we look at a related important question: When are thermal states stable against noise? In other words, if we locally disturb a closed quantum system in a thermal state, will it return to thermal equilibrium? We rigorously show that this occurs when the correlations in the thermal state are exponentially decaying. All our results come with finite-size bounds, which are crucial for the growing field of quantum thermodynamics and other physical applications.

description: We consider a class of models involving interactions between ultra-light scalar dark matter and Standard Model neutrinos. Such couplings modify the neutrino mass splittings and mixing angles to include additional components that vary in time periodically with a frequency and amplitude set by the mass and energy density of the dark matter. Null results from recent searches for anomalous periodicities in the solar neutrino flux strongly constrain the dark matter-neutrino coupling to be orders of magnitude below current and projected limits derived from observations of the cosmic microwave background.

description: High and ultra-high strength steel can contribute to more sustainable structures by saving construction weight and resources. In FprEN 1993-1-8 modified design rules for butt- und filletwelded connections have been implemented for steels up to S700 that consider the special characteristics of welded high-strength steels. prEN 1993-1-12 will be valid for steels up to S960 and consequently, the design concepts have to be extended up to S960. For this purpose, in the research project “Effective design concepts for mixed connections in steel structures” an extensive experimental program of ultra-high strength welded connections was tested. For butt welds, 36 specimens with steel grades S960MC or S960QL and different filler metals G46 and G89 were used. Furthermore, the plate thickness and weld joint geometry were varying parameters. The fillet welds were made of S960QL, t = 20 mm with varying filler metals G46, G69, G89 and T89, resulting in a total of 12 experimental tests. Tensile tests with optical strain and optical extensometer measuring were conducted to examine the load-carrying capacity and deformation behaviour of the welded test specimens. Moreover, further material investigations were carried out, such as microhardness mappings on in cross-sectioned welds and tensile tests of the weld metal. With the results obtained from the research project, proposals for extensions of the design concepts for butt- and fillet-welded connections up to S960 were developed that can be incorporated in prEN 1993-1-12. The investigations carried out and the formulation of design recommendations enable a wide use of ultra-high strength steels. This allows material savings and future-oriented, sustainable constructions.

description: On one side is the historical man of 1942, who had challenged the people of his country for armed rebellion; on the other side, there is the saint-like Jai Prakash Narayan, in front of whom even the bandits had to surrender. There is no match between these two images of him. However, the full expression of these two images is present in his personality and his works through which we can learn about him. He never cared about the allegations and criticisms. Even in the most adverse circumstances, his resolve did not falter in the slightest. His personality had that unique blend of human values. He has remained undeterred in adverse conditions and even in the midst of tornadoes

description: BACKGROUND: An inverse association between vitamin D status and cardiometabolic risk has been reported but this relationship may have been affected by residual confounding from adiposity and physical activity due to imprecise measures of these variables. We aimed to investigate the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and cardiometabolic risk factors, with adjustment for objectively-measured physical activity and adiposity. METHODS: This was a population-based cross-sectional study in 586 adults in Cameroon (63.5% women). We assessed markers of glucose homoeostasis (fasting blood glucose (BG), 2 h post glucose load BG, HOMA-IR)) and computed a metabolic syndrome score by summing the sex-specific z-scores of five risk components measuring central adiposity, blood pressure, glucose, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides. RESULTS: Mean±SD age was 38.3 ± 8.6 years, and serum 25(OH)D was 51.7 ± 12.5 nmol/L. Mean 25(OH)D was higher in rural (53.4 ± 12.8 nmol/L) than urban residents (50.2 ± 12.1 nmol/L), p = 0.002. The prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency (<50 nmol/L) was 45.7%. There was an inverse association between 25(OH)D and the metabolic syndrome score in unadjusted analyses (β = -0.30, 95% CI -0.55 to -0.05), which became non-significant after adjusting for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol intake and education level. Serum 25(OH)D was inversely associated with fasting BG (-0.21, -0.34 to -0.08)), which remained significant after adjustment for age, sex, education, smoking, alcohol intake, the season of data collection, BMI and physical activity (-0.17, -0.29 to -0.06). There was an inverse association of 25(OH)D with 2-h BG (-0.20, -0.34 to -0.05) and HOMA-IR (-0.12, -0.19 to -0.04) in unadjusted analysis, but these associations became non-significant after adjustment for potential confounders. CONCLUSION: Vitamin D insufficiency was common in this population. This study showed an inverse association between vitamin D status and fasting glucose that was independent of potential confounders, including objectively measured physical activity and adiposity, suggesting a possible mechanism through insulin secretion.
Integrating Sustainability in Hospitality Operations: The Case of Carbon Footprint Calculators
Creators: name: Kruesi, Michael Alexander

Publisher: name: Singapore Institute of Technology
Year: 2023

description: The present case examines the opportunities as well as the challenges of implementing a carbon footprint calculator into a hospitality operation. Although the use of such tools is increasing in the hospitality industry, there are several issues related to their accuracy, their implementation and their acceptance among both staff and guests (Bottrill, 2007; Padgett, 2008). The question that presents itself is how to most effectively integrate a carbon footprint calculator that is effective and accurate. It is suggested that the creation of a dedicated carbon footprint calculator, which is custom built for a specific hotel organisation, could be the answer to tackling the challenges mentioned above, effectively raising awareness, improving organisational sustainability, and facilitating the acceptance of such a tool by staff, as well as satisfying the demand of an increasingly environmentally conscious customer base.

description: BACKGROUND: Impaired cerebral autoregulation has been linked with worse outcomes, with literature suggesting that current therapy guidelines fail to significantly impact cerebrovascular reactivity. The cerebral oximetry index (COx_a) is a surrogate measure of cerebrovascular reactivity which can in theory be obtained non-invasively using regional brain tissue oxygen saturation and arterial blood pressure. The goal of this study was to assess the relationship between objectively measured depth of sedation through BIS and autoregulatory capacity measured through COx_a. METHODS: In a prospectively maintained observational study, we collected continuous regional brain tissue oxygen saturation, intracranial pressure, arterial blood pressure and BIS in traumatic brain injury patients. COx_a was obtained using the Pearson's correlation between regional brain tissue oxygen saturation and arterial blood pressure and ranges from - 1 to 1 with higher values indicating impairment of cerebrovascular reactivity. Using BIS values and COx_a, a curve-fitting method was applied to determine the minimum value for the COx_a. The associated BIS value with the minimum COx_a is called BISopt. This BISopt was both visually and algorithmically determined, which were compared and assessed over the whole dataset. RESULTS: Of the 42 patients, we observed that most had a parabolic relationship between BIS and COx_a. This suggests a potential "optimal" depth of sedation where COx_a is the most intact. Furthermore, when comparing the BISopt algorithm with visual inspection of BISopt, we obtained similar results. Finally, BISopt % yield (determined algorithmically) appeared to be independent from any individual sedative or vasopressor agent, and there was agreement between BISopt found with COx_a and the pressure reactivity index (another surrogate for cerebrovascular reactivity). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that COx_a is capable of detecting disruption in cerebrovascular reactivity which occurs with over-/under-sedation, utilizing a non-invasive measure of determination and assessment. This technique may carry implications for tailoring sedation in patients, focusing on individualized neuroprotection.

Sub-MeV Bosonic Dark Matter, Misalignment Mechanism and Galactic Dark Matter Halo Luminosities

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We explore a scenario that the dark matter is a boson condensate created by the misalignment mechanism, in which a spin 0 boson (an axion-like particle) and a spin 1 boson (the dark photon) are considered, respectively. We find that although the sub-MeV dark matter boson is extremely stable, the huge number of dark matter particles in a galaxy halo makes the decaying signal detectable. A galaxy halo is a large structure bounded by gravity with a typical $\sim10^{12}$ solar mass, and the majority of its components are made of dark matter. For the axion-like particle case, it decays via $ϕ\to γγ$, therefore the photon spectrum is monochromatic. For the dark photon case, it is a three body decay $A'\toγγγ$. However, we find that the photon spectrum is heavily peaked at $M/2$ and thus can facilitate observation. We also suggest a physical explanation for the three body decay spectrum by comparing the physics in the decay of orthopositronium. In addition, for both cases, the decaying photon flux can be measured for some regions of parameter space using current technologies.

description: Visual complexity is ubiquitous in nature. Drivers of complexity include selection in coevolutionary arms races between antagonists. However, the causes and consequences of biological complexity and its perception are largely understudied, partly because complexity is difficult to quantify. Here, we address this by studying egg pattern complexity and its perception in hosts (tawny-flanked prinia Prinia subflava), which visually recognize and reject mimetic eggs of their virulent brood parasite (cuckoo finch Anomalospiza imberbis). Using field data and an optimization algorithm, we compute a complexity metric which predicts rejection of experimentally placed conspecific eggs in prinia nests. Real cuckoo finch eggs exhibit significantly lower pattern complexity than prinia eggs, suggesting that high complexity benefits hosts because it distinguishes host eggs from parasitic eggs. We show that prinias perceive complexity differences according to Weber's law of proportional processing (i.e. relative, rather than absolute, differences between stimuli are processed in discrimination, such that two eggs with simple patterns are more easily discriminable than two with complex patterns). This may influence coevolutionary trajectories of hosts and parasites. The new methods presented for quantifying complexity and its perception can help us to understand selection pressures driving the evolution of complexity and its consequences for species interactions.

Fermion number anomaly with the fluffy mirror fermion

description: Quite recently, Grabowska and Kaplan presented a 4-dimensional lattice formulation of chiral gauge theories based on the chiral overlap operator. We study this formulation from the perspective of the fermion number anomaly and possible associated phenomenology. A simple argument shows that the consistency of the formulation implies that the fermion with the opposite chirality to the physical one, the "fluffy mirror fermion" or "fluff", suffers from the fermion number anomaly in the same magnitude (with the opposite sign) as the physical fermion. This immediately shows that if at least one of the fluff quarks is massless, the formulation provides a simple viable solution to the strong CP problem. Also, if the fluff interacts with gravity essentially in the same way as the physical fermion, the formulation can realize the asymmetric dark matter scenario.

Sandwiched Rényi Convergence for Quantum Evolutions

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We study the speed of convergence of a primitive quantum time evolution towards its fixed point in the distance of sandwiched Rényi divergences. For each of these distance measures the convergence is typically exponentially fast and the best exponent is given by a constant (similar to a logarithmic Sobolev constant) depending only on the generator of the time evolution. We establish relations between these constants and the logarithmic Sobolev constants as well as the spectral gap. An important consequence of these relations is the derivation of mixing time bounds for time evolutions directly from logarithmic Sobolev inequalities without relying on notions like lp-regularity. We also derive strong converse bounds for the classical capacity of a quantum time evolution and apply these to obtain bounds on the classical capacity of some examples, including stabilizer Hamiltonians under thermal noise.

Cycle flows and multistabilty in oscillatory networks: an overview

Subjects: subject: Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems (nlin.AO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The functions of many networked systems in physics, biology or engineering rely on a coordinated or synchronized dynamics of its constituents. In power grids for example, all generators must synchronize and run at the same frequency and their phases need to appoximately lock to guarantee a steady power flow. Here, we analyze the existence and multitude of such phase-locked states. Focusing on edge and cycle flows instead of the nodal phases we derive rigorous results on the existence and number of such states. Generally, multiple phase-locked states coexist in networks with strong edges, long elementary cycles and a homogeneous distribution of natural frequencies or power injections, respectively. We offer an algorithm to systematically compute multiple phase- locked states and demonstrate some surprising dynamical consequences of multistability.

Electromagnetically induced transparency with Rydberg atoms across the Breit-Rabi regime

description: We present experimental results on the influence of magnetic fields and laser polarization on electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) using Rydberg levels of $^{87}$Rb atoms. The measurements are performed in a room temperature vapor cell with two counter-propagating laser beams at 480nm and 780nm in a ladder-type energy level scheme. We measure the EIT spectrum of a range of $ns_{1/2}$ Rydberg states for $n=19-27$, where the hyperfine structure can still be resolved. Our measurements span the range of magnetic fields from the low field linear Zeeman regime to the high field Paschen-Back regimes. The observed spectra are very sensitive to small changes in magnetic fields and the polarization of the laser beams. We model our observations using optical Bloch equations that take into account the full multi-level structure of the atomic states involved and the decoupling of the electronic $J$ and nuclear $I$ angular momenta in the Breit-Rabi regime. The numerical model yields excellent agreement with the observations. In addition to EIT related experiments, our results are relevant for experiments involving coherent excitation to Rydberg levels in the presence of magnetic fields.

description: We present designs for scalable quantum computers composed of qubits encoded in aggregates of four or more Majorana zero modes, realized at the ends of topological superconducting wire segments that are assembled into superconducting islands with significant charging energy. Quantum information can be manipulated according to a measurement-only protocol, which is facilitated by tunable couplings between Majorana zero modes and nearby semiconductor quantum dots. Our proposed architecture designs have the following principal virtues: (1) the magnetic field can be aligned in the direction of all of the topological superconducting wires since they are all parallel; (2) topological $T$-junctions are not used, obviating possible difficulties in their fabrication and utilization; (3) quasiparticle poisoning is abated by the charging energy; (4) Clifford operations are executed by a relatively standard measurement: detection of corrections to quantum dot energy, charge, or differential capacitance induced by quantum fluctuations; (5) it is compatible with strategies for producing good approximate magic states.
