description: Contributions of flavour-changing neutral currents in the 3 3 1 model with right-handed neutrinos to mass difference of the neutral meson system $Δm_P (P = K, D, B)$ are calculated. Using the Fritzsch anzats on quark mixing, we show that the third family should be different from the first two. We obtain a lower bound on mass of the new heavy neutral gauge boson as 1.02 TeV.

description: Male-biased sexual size dimorphism typically evolves via sexual selection for larger males that are favoured by choosy females or are more successful in mate competition with other males. Among marine invertebrates that broadcast their gametes into the ocean for fertilisation, this form of sexual size dimorphism is rare because such species lack direct interactions among males or between the sexes. However, the broadcast-spawning tusk shell Rhabdus rectius was recently reported to show strong male-biased sexual size dimorphism. That pattern might imply interesting and undiscovered sexual selection in this species. We found instead that the distribution of body size variation (weight, shell length) was similar between males and females of R. rectius, and mean sizes were not different between the sexes. However, we noted a male-biased sex ratio (∼1:1.3) in our large sample of individuals. Many live scaphopods (and several dead shells) showed partial or complete boreholes drilled by predatory gastropods. Boreholes were observed on males and females in similar proportions. We collected scaphopods along with multiple individuals of one likely scaphopod predator, the small moon snail Euspira pallida, and in the lab we observed successful attacks by moon snails on tusk shells.

description: In this paper, we study the efficiency of egoistic and altruistic strategies within the model of social dynamics determined by voting in a stochastic environment (the ViSE model) using two criteria: maximizing the average capital increment and minimizing the number of bankrupt participants. The proposals are generated stochastically; three families of the corresponding distributions are considered: normal distributions, symmetrized Pareto distributions, and Student's $t$-distributions. It is found that the "pit of losses" paradox described earlier does not occur in the case of heavy-tailed distributions. The egoistic strategy better protects agents from extinction in aggressive environments than the altruistic ones, however, the efficiency of altruism is higher in more favorable environments. A comparison of altruistic strategies with each other shows that in aggressive environments, everyone should be supported to minimize extinction, while under more favorable conditions, it is more efficient to support the weakest participants. Studying the dynamics of participants' capitals we identify situations where the two considered criteria contradict each other. At the next stage of the study, combined voting strategies and societies involving participants with selfish and altruistic strategies will be explored.

description: The North Island Fault System (NIFS), coincides with North Island’s axial ranges, accommodating crustal strain associated with the Hikurangi subduction margin. Detailed geological mapping along c. 80 km of the NIFS constrains uplift/subsidence and displacement patterns since c. 12 Ma. Uplift within the NIFS area and/or vertical displacement on faults occurred at 12–10, 7–6.5, 5–4.5, 3.5–3.0, 2.5–2, and post-1 Ma. Each deformation episode was associated with vertical offsets across the NIFS of >300–500 m (total c. 5 km). Total dextral strike-slip across the NIFS since 5 Ma is <20 km. Little of the relative plate motion is accommodated on the NIFS (<10%) or in the upper plate (<20%), the majority occurring on the subduction interface. The tectonic evolution of North Island is best explained by reconstructions incorporating vertical axis block rotations and <30 km strike-slip distributed across the entire margin on multiple discrete structures.

description: We present the results of BVRI imaging and optical spectroscopy of the dwarf galaxy A0951+68. The images reveal that, although this galaxy is classified as a dwarf elliptical, it has some properties that are similar to dwarf irregular galaxies. It contains two bright knots of emission, one of which is red and unresolved and the other blue and resolved. The blue knot also shows a high excitation emission line spectrum. The observed line ratios indicate that this is an HII region, although with some line ratios that are border-line with those in AGN. The emission line luminosity is consistent with ionisation by a single, very luminous O star, or several smaller O stars, but the extended blue light in the knot shows that this has occurred as part of a substantial recent star formation event. We find that the metal abundance, while low compared to typical large galaxies, actually seems to be high for such a low luminosity dwarf. The position of A0951 in the literature is incorrect and we provide the correct value.

description: Saudi Arabia faced a swift economic growth and societal transformation under Vision 2030. This offers a unique opportunity to track emerging trends in the region, which will ultimately pave the way for new business and investment possibilities. This paper explores how AI and social media analytics can identify and track trends across sectors such as construction, food and beverage, tourism, technology, and entertainment thereby helping the businesses make informed decisions. By leveraging a tailored AI-driven methodology, we analyzed millions of social media posts each month, classifying discussions and calculating scores to track the trends. The approach not only uncovered the emerging trends but also shows diminishing trends. Our methodology is able to predict the emergence and growth of trends by utilizing social media data. This approach has potential for adaptation in other regions. Ultimately, our findings highlight how ongoing, AI-powered trend analysis can enable more effective, data-informed business and development strategies in an increasingly dynamic environment.

description: Whenever foreign activities turn out to be essential to ensure the company's goals and competitiveness, companies become international. New markets, new lucrative resources promise profitable growth. The new step beyond the national borders requires careful consideration based on the political conditions of the target market (e.g. stability of the political system, social peace, legal certainty, institutional barriers to market entry, attitude to direct investment). The legal framework, such as state funding, environmental protection laws, tax legislation, state requirements or bureaucratic regulations, appear to be at least as relevant too. However, SMEs often lack the capacity and/or courage to take this step. Political authorities at the European level and below are aware of this problem. Numerous studies show that internationalisation is not only necessary to improve competitiveness, but greatly promote innovation, e.g. within international collaborations, it is important to get the authorities to treat these issues with special attention. Governmental promotion is supposed to work in terms of establishing regional balance and supporting socially relevant topics and research. Nevertheless, despite the willingness to support SMEs in their cross-border projects, billions of released Euros are lying around and have not been used. It seems reasonable to assume money is not easy to come by. Enormous bureaucratic hurdles are on everyone's lips. But is that the only reason? Are the people sufficiently informed to be able to take advantage of the numerous financing opportunities? Or is there even more behind the invisible hurdle at first glance? To ascertain this circumstance more precisely, an in-depth analysis to answer the research question ‘what can the institutions do better to make it easier for SMEs to access funding?’ is required.

Constraints on the CKM Angle $γ$ and Strong Phases from $B\toπK$ Decays

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: As we pointed out recently, the neutral decays $B_d\toπ^\mp K^\pm$ and $B_d\toπ^0K$ may provide non-trivial bounds on the CKM angle $γ$. In this paper, we reconsider this approach in the light of recent CLEO data, which look very interesting. In particular, the results for the corresponding CP-averaged branching ratios are in favour of strong constraints on $γ$, where the second quadrant is preferred. Such a situation would be in conflict with the standard analysis of the unitarity triangle. Moreover, constraints on a CP-conserving strong phase $δ_n$ are in favour of a negative value of $\cosδ_n$, which would be in conflict with the factorization expectation. In addition, there seems to be an interesting discrepancy with the bounds that are implied by the charged $B\toπK$ system: whereas these decays favour a range for $γ$ that is similar to that of the neutral modes, they point towards a positive value of $\cosδ_c$, which would be in conflict with the expectation of equal signs for $\cosδ_n$ and $\cosδ_c$. If future data should confirm this ``puzzle'', it may be an indication for new-physics contributions to the electroweak penguin sector, or a manifestation of large non-factorizable SU(3)-breaking effects.

description: Electric flux may be screened by pair nucleation of heavy charges, a process that has a simple description in terms of a worldline instanton. When flux is wrapped around a small compact spatial dimension, worldline instantons still induce flux dissipation, but the leading process does not create real charged pairs. Instead, dissipation can be described in effective field theory as the production of long-wavelength scalar quanta via parametric resonance. The rate is computed semiclassically, and comments are made on the related problem of pair creation at finite temperature, for which differing results appear in the literature. Flux dissipation and the weak gravity conjecture together imply that the proper distance in field space a homogeneous axion field can traverse is bounded.

A versatile scanning method for volumetric measurements of velocity and density fields

description: Understanding turbulence in a stratified environment requires a detailed picture of both the velocity field and the density field. Experimentally, this represents a significant measurement challenge, especially when full three-dimensional data is needed to accurately characterise the turbulent fields. This paper presents a new approach to obtaining such data through well-resolved, near-instantaneous volume-spanning measurements. This is accomplished by rapidly scanning the volume with a light sheet so that, at each scan location, planar two-dimensional measurements of three velocity components via stereo particle image velocimetry (PIV) and simultaneous density information via planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) can be made. Ultimately, this rapid scanning technique permits the measurement of all three components of velocity in a volume as well as simultaneously capturing the three-dimensional density field. The scanning of the light sheet is accomplished by mounting the optics producing the light sheet on a linear traverse that is capable of rapidly scanning the volume in a continuous manner. The key and novel aspect enabling high scan rates is the addition of two mirrors on galvanometers to make small adjustments to the position of the light sheet and ensure a precise overlap between pairs of image frames. This new technique means the light sheet does not have to be excessively thick, the scanning speed too slow, or that inappropriately small interframe times have to be used, while ensuring overlapping particle patterns between pairs of images that are required by the PIV algorithm. The technique is illustrated with some preliminary results from the buoyancy-driven exchange flow through an inclined duct connecting two reservoirs containing different density fluids.

In the case of the D=3 Georgi-Glashow model, we point out that the abelian field distribution is not adequatedly represented, at very large scales, by that of a monopole Coulomb gas. The onset of center disorder is associated with the breakdown of the Coulomb gas approximation; this scale is pushed off to infinity in the QED_3 limit of the 3D Georgi-Glashow model, but should approach the color-screening length in the pure Yang-Mills limit.

description: Objectives: Elite athletes are at high risk for poor oral health. A screening program to assess oral health and create dental awareness can improve oral health among elite athletes but has not been performed in the Netherlands before. We summarize the first results from such a screening conducted in Dutch elite athletes of the Nederlands Olympisch Committee*Nederlandse Sport Federatie (NOC*NSF, Dutch Olympic Committee). Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 800 Dutch athletes eligible for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro 2016 were invited to a costless and voluntary oral examination. The decayed, missing, and filled teeth-index (DMFT), the basic erosive wear examination (BEWE) and the Dutch Periodontal Screening-index (DPSI) were used to evaluate athlete’s oral health. Information on sociodemographic variables and sport performance were collected in questionnaires. Results: In total, 116 Dutch elite athletes were included in the study. The median (90%-range) DMFT-score was 3.0 (0.0–16.0), the median BEWE-score was 2.0 (0.0–10.0), and the mean± SD DPSI-score was 2.0 ± 0.73. Oral health-related quality of life was generally high, although only 28.2% of the athletes reported never having problems with their dentition or mouth. In 43% of the athlete’s clinical findings were reported which needed a direct referral to the general dentist. Conclusion: Oral health in this subsample of Dutch elite athletes was surprisingly affected as almost half of them needed dental treatment. Further research is needed to allow conclusions about oral health in Dutch elite athletes more broadly. However, regular screening of oral health incorporated into the general preventive health care of elite athletes is necessary to ensure athletes are fully healthy during competitions like the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

description: We investigate a new ``renormalization invariant analytic formulation'' of calculations in quantum chromodynamics, where the renormalization group summation is correlated with the analyticity with respect to the square of the transferred momentum $Q^2$. The expressions for the invariant charge and matrix elements are then modified such that the unphysical singularities of the ghost pole type do not appear at all, being by construction compensated by additional nonperturbative contributions. Using the new scheme, we show that the results of calculations for a number of physical processes are stable with respect to higher-loop effects and the choice of the renormalization prescription. Having in mind applications of the new formulation to inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering processes, we analyze the corresponding structure functions starting from the general principles of the theory expressed by the Jost-Lehmann-Dyson integral representation. We use a nonstandard scaling variable that leads to modified moments of the structure functions possessing Källén-Lehmann analytic properties with respect to $Q^2$. We find the relation between these ``modified analytic moments'' and the operator product expansion.

description: Excerpt from the report Summary: Detailed descriptions were developed and labor requirements were determined by methods-time-measurement (MTM) analyses for each processing step in the turkey-evisceration operation in commercial turkey-processing plants. The time values developed provide precise information on labor requirements for each successive step in the eviscerating operation and form a base from which management can design the most efficient eviscerating-crew composition.

description: We studied the focusing effect of electron flow induced by a single p-n junction (PNJ) in three-dimensional topological insulator. It is found that the electrons flowing from the n region can be focused at the symmetric position in the p region, acting as a perfect Veselago lens, regardless whether the incident energy is within or beyond the bulk energy gap. In the former case, the focusing effect occurs only in the surfaces. While in the latter case, the focusing effect occurs beyond the surfaces. These results show that the focusing effect of electron flow is a general phenomenon. It means the negative refraction may arise in all materials that are described by the massive or massless Dirac equation of 2D or beyond 2D system. Furthermore, we also find the focusing effect is robust in resisting the moderate random disorders. Finally, in the presence of a weak perpendicular magnetic field, the focusing effect remains well except that the position of the focal point is deflected by the transverse Lorentz force. Due to the finite size effect, the position of focal point oscillates periodically with a period of Delta B.

description: We use string duality to describe instanton induced spontaneous supersymmetry breaking in string compactifications with additional background fields. Dynamical supersymmetry breaking by space-time instantons in the heterotic string theory is mapped to a tree level breaking in the type II string which can be explicitly calculated by geometric methods. It is argued that the instanton corrections resurrect the no-go theorem on partial supersymmetry breaking. The point particle limit describes the non-perturbative scalar potential of a SYM theory localized on a hypersurface of space-time. The N=0 vacuum displays condensation of magnetic monopoles and confinement. The supersymmetry breaking scale is determined by $M_{str}$, which can be in the TeV range, and the geometry transverse to the gauge theory.

description: Germanium is emerging as the substrate of choice for the growth of graphene in CMOS-compatible processes. For future application in next generation devices the accurate control over the properties of high-quality graphene synthesized on Ge surfaces, such as number of layers and domain size, is of paramount importance. Here we investigate the role of the process gas flows on the CVD growth of graphene on Ge(100). The quality and morphology of the deposited material is assessed by using microRaman spectroscopy, x-ray photoemission spectroscopy, scanning electron and atomic force microscopies. We find that by simply varying the carbon precursor flow different growth regimes - yielding to graphene nanoribbons, graphene monolayer and graphene multilayer - are established. We identify the growth conditions yielding to a layer-by-layer growth regime and report on the achievement of homogeneous monolayer graphene with an average intensity ratio of 2D and G bands in the Raman map larger than 3.

description: Coherent perfect absorption is the complete extinction of incoming radiation by a complex potential in a physical system supporting wave propagation. The concept was proven for linear waves in variety of systems including light interacting with absorbing scatterers, plasmonic metasurfaces and graphene films, as well as sound waves. We extend the paradigm to coherent perfect absorption of nonlinear waves and experimentally demonstrate it for matter waves in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. Coherent absorption of nonlinear matter waves is achieved easier than its linear analogs because the strength of two-body interactions offers additional freedom for control. Implementation of the coherent perfect absorber of Bose-Einstein condensates paves the way towards broad exploitation of the phenomenon in nonlinear optics, exciton-polariton condensates, acoustics, and other areas of nonlinear physics. It also opens perspectives for designing atomic laser.

description: We study variable-speed random walks on $\mathbb Z$ driven by a family of nearest-neighbor time-dependent random conductances $\{a_t(x,x+1)\colon x\in\mathbb Z, t\ge0\}$ whose law is assumed invariant and ergodic under space-time shifts. We prove a quenched invariance principle for the random walk under the minimal moment conditions on the environment; namely, assuming only that the conductances possess the first positive and negative moments. A novel ingredient is the representation of the parabolic coordinates and the corrector via a dual random walk which is considerably easier to analyze.

description: We show that the evolution equation of the effective potential in the auxiliary mass method corresponds to a leading approximation of a certain series. This series is derived from an evolution equation of an effective action using a derivative expansion. We derived an expression of the next-to-leading approximation of the evolution equation, which is a simultaneous partial differential equation.

Quadrupole shift cancellation using dynamic decoupling

description: We present a method that uses radio-frequency pulses to cancel the quadrupole shift in optical clock transitions. Quadrupole shifts are an inherent inhomogeneous broadening mechanism in trapped ion crystals, limiting current optical ion clocks to work with a single probe ion. Cancelling this shift at each interrogation cycle of the ion frequency allows the use of $N>1$ ions in clocks, thus reducing the uncertainty in the clock frequency by $\sqrt{N}$ according to the standard quantum limit. Our sequence relies on the tensorial nature of the quadrupole shift, and thus also cancels other tensorial shifts, such as the tensor ac stark shift. We experimentally demonstrate our sequence on three and seven $^{88}\mathrm{Sr}^{+}$ ions trapped in a linear Paul trap, using correlation spectroscopy. We show a reduction of the quadrupole shift difference between ions to $\approx20$ mHz's level where other shifts, such as the relativistic 2$^{\mathrm{nd}}$ order Doppler shift, are expected to limit our spectral resolution. In addition, we show that using radio-frequency dynamic decoupling we can also cancel the effect of 1$^{\mathrm{st}}$ order Zeeman shifts.

description: We present the first interferometer map of the water maser emission in the active nucleus of NGC 4945. Although the declination of the galaxy is about -49 degrees, we were able to make the observations with the southernmost antennas of the Very Long Baseline Array. Strong maser emission is present in three velocity ranges, one near the systemic velocity and two shifted roughly symmetrically by +/-(100-150) km/s. This is the first detection of highly blue-shifted water emission in NGC 4945. We determined the position of the maser to be RA(B1950)= 13 02 32.28 +/- 0.02 ; Dec(B1950)= -49 12 01.9 +/- 0.1. The uncertainties in earlier estimates are at least several arcseconds. The maser lies within 2'' (36 pc at a distance of 3.7 Mpc) of the peaks in 1.4 GHz continuum and 1.6 micron emission from the nucleus. The mappable maser emission is distributed roughly linearly over about 40 milliarcseconds (0.7 pc) at a position angle of about 45 degrees, which is close to the 43 +/- 2 degree position angle of the galactic disk. The red and blue-shifted emission symmetrically stradle the systemic emission on the sky, which suggests material in edge-on circular motion around a central object. The position-velocity structure indicates a binding mass of about one million Suns, within a volume of radius about 0.3 pc. This implies that the central engine radiates on the order of 10% of its Eddington luminosity.
