Collinear Orbital Antiferromagnetic Order and Magnetoelectricity in Quasi-2D Itinerant-Electron Paramagnets, Ferromagnets and Antiferromagnets

description: We develop a comprehensive theory for magnetoelectricity in magnetically ordered quasi-2D systems whereby in thermal equilibrium an electric field can induce a magnetization $m$ and a magnetic field can induce a polarization. This effect requires that both space-inversion and time-reversal symmetry are broken. Antiferromagnetic (AFM) order plays a central role in this theory. We define a Néel operator $τ$ such that a nonzero expectation value $\langle τ\rangle$ signals AFM order, in the same way $m$ signals ferromagnetic (FM) order. While $m$ is even under space inversion and odd under time reversal, $τ$ describes a toroidal moment that is odd under both symmetries. Thus $m$ and $\langle τ\rangle$ quantify complementary aspects of magnetic order in solids. In quasi-2D systems FM order can be attributed to dipolar equilibrium currents that give rise to $m$. In the same way, AFM order arises from quadrupolar currents that generate the moment $\langle τ\rangle$. The electric-field-induced magnetization can then be attributed to the electric manipulation of the quadrupolar currents. We develop a $k \cdot p$ envelope-function theory for AFM diamond structures that allows us to derive explicit expressions for the operator $τ$. Considering FM zincblende and AFM diamond, we derive quantitative expressions for the magnetoelectric responses due to electric and magnetic fields that reveal explicitly the inherent duality of these responses required by thermodynamics. Magnetoelectricity is found to be small in realistic calculations for quasi-2D electron systems. The magnetoelectric response of quasi-2D hole systems turns out to be sizable, however, with moderate electric fields being able to induce a magnetic moment of one Bohr magneton per charge carrier. Our theory provides a broad framework for the manipulation of magnetic order by means of external fields.

description: The correlation and physical interconnection between space weather indices and cosmic ray flux has been well-established with extensive literature on the topic. Our investigation is centered on the relationships among the solar radio flux, geomagnetic field activity, and cosmic ray flux, as observed by the Neutron Monitor at the Lomnický štít Observatory in Slovakia. We processed the raw neutron monitor data, generating the first publicly accessible dataset spanning 42 years. The curated continuous data are available in .csv format in hourly resolution from December 1981 to July 2023 and in minute resolution from January 2001 to July 2023 (Institute of Experimental Physics SAS, 2024). Validation of this processed data was accomplished by identifying distinctive events within the dataset. As part of the selection of events for case studies, we report the discovery of TGE-s visible in the data. Applying the Pearson method for statistical analysis, we quantified the linear correlation of the datasets. Additionally, a prediction power score was computed to reveal potential non-linear relationships. Our findings demonstrate a significant anti-correlation between cosmic ray and solar radio flux with a correlation coefficient of -0.74, coupled with a positive correlation concerning geomagnetic field strength. We also found that the neutron monitor measurements correlate better with a delay of 7-21 hours applied to the geomagnetic field strength data. The correlation between these datasets is further improved when inspecting periods of extreme solar events only. Lastly, the computed prediction power score of 0.22 for neutron flux in the context of geomagnetic field strength presents exciting possibilities for developing real-time geomagnetic storm prediction models based on cosmic ray measurements.

Furthermore, we fully describe the optimal rearrangement-invariant space on either side of the inequality when the space on the other side is fixed. We also solve the same problem within the environment in which the competing spaces are Orlicz spaces. A variety of examples involving customary function spaces suitable for applications is also provided.

description: We construct the effective chiral Lagrangian for chiral perturbation theory in the mesonic odd-intrinsic-parity sector at order $p^6$. The Lagrangian contains 24 in principle measurable terms and no contact terms for the general case of $N_f$ light flavours, 23 terms for three and 5 for two flavours. In the two flavour case we need a total of 13 terms if an external singlet vector field is included. We discuss and implement the methods used to reduce to a minimal set. The infinite parts needed for renormalization are calculated and presented as well.

description: Quantum illumination is a powerful sensing technique that employs entangled signal-idler photon pairs to boost the detection efficiency of low-reflectivity objects in environments with bright thermal noise. The promised advantage over classical strategies is particularly evident at low signal powers, a feature which could make the protocol an ideal prototype for non-invasive biomedical scanning or low-power short-range radar. In this work we experimentally investigate the concept of quantum illumination at microwave frequencies. We generate entangled fields using a Josephson parametric converter to illuminate a room-temperature object at a distance of 1 meter in a free-space detection setup. We implement a digital phase conjugate receiver based on linear quadrature measurements that outperforms a symmetric classical noise radar in the same conditions despite the entanglement-breaking signal path. Starting from experimental data, we also simulate the case of perfect idler photon number detection, which results in a quantum advantage compared to the relative classical benchmark. Our results highlight the opportunities and challenges on the way towards a first room-temperature application of microwave quantum circuits.

description: We present a conditional quantum eraser which erases the a priori knowledge or the predictability of the path a photon takes in a Young-type double-slit experiment with two fluorescent four-level atoms. This erasure violates a recently derived erasure relation which must be satisfied for a conventional, unconditional quantum eraser that aims to find an optimal sorting of the system into subensembles with particularly large fringe visibilities. The conditional quantum eraser employs an interaction-free, partial which-way measurement which not only sorts the system into optimal subsystems with large visibility but also selects the appropriate subsystem with the maximum possible visibility. We explain how the erasure relation can be violated under these circumstances.

Diffusion-controlled coalescence, fragmentation and collapse of $d$-dimensional $A$-particle islands in the $B$-particle sea
Creators: name: Shipilevsky, Boris M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We present a systematic analysis of diffusion-controlled evolution and collapse of two identical spatially separated $d$-dimensional $A$-particle islands in the $B$-particle sea at propagation of the sharp reaction front $A+B\to 0$ at equal species diffusivities. We show that at a sufficiently large initial distance between the centers of islands $2\ell$ compared to their characteristic initial size and a relatively large initial ratio of concentrations island/sea the evolution dynamics of the island-sea-island system is determined unambiguously by the dimensionless parameter $Λ={\cal N}_{0}/{\cal N}_Ω$, where ${\cal N}_{0}$ is the initial particle number in the island and ${\cal N}_Ω$ is the initial number of sea particles in the volume $Ω=(2\ell)^{d}$. It is established that a) there is a $d$-dependent critical value $Λ_{\star}$ above which island coalescence occurs; b) regardless of $d$ the centers of each of the islands move towards each other along a {\it universal} trajectory merging in a united center at the $d$-dependent critical value $Λ_{s}\geqΛ_{\star}$; c) in one-dimensional systems $Λ_{\star}=Λ_{s}$, therefore at $ΛΛ_{\star}$ coalescence is completed by collapse of a single-centered island in the system center; d) in two- and three-dimensional systems in the range $Λ_{\star}< Λ< Λ_{s}$ coalescence is accompanied by subsequent fragmentation of a two-centered island and is completed by individual collapse of each of the islands. We discuss a detailed picture of coalescence, fragmentation and collapse of islands focusing on evolution of their shape and on behavior of the relative width of the reaction front at the final collapse stage and in the vicinity of starting coalescence and fragmentation points.

description: We investigate observational constraints from present and future supernova data on a large class of decaying vacuum cosmologies. In such scenarios the present value of the vacuum energy density is quantified by a positive $β$ parameter smaller than unity. By assuming a Gaussian prior on the matter density parameter ($Ω_{\rm{m}} = 0.35 \pm 0.07$) we find $Ω_{\rm{m}} = 0.34^{+0.14}_{-0.12}$ and $β= 0.62^{+0.12}_{-0.24}$ (95% c.l.) as the best fit values for the present data. We show that, while the current data cannot provide restrictive constraints on the $Ω_{\rm{m}} - β$ plane, the future SNe data will limit considerably the allowed space of parameter. A brief discussion about the equivalence between dynamical-$Λ$ scenarios and scalar field cosmologies is also included.

description: We outline a proof of the stability of a massless neutral scalar field $ψ$ in the background of a wide class of four dimensional asymptotically flat rotating and ``electrically charged'' solutions of supergravity, and the low energy limit of string theory, known as STU metrics. Despite their complexity, we find it possible to circumvent the difficulties presented by the existence of ergo-regions and the related phenomenon of super-radiance in the original metrics by following a strategy due to Whiting, and passing to an auxiliary metric admitting an everywhere lightlike Killing field and constructing a scalar field $Ψ$ (related to a possible unstable mode $ψ$ by a non-local transformation) which satisfies the massless wave equation with respect to the auxiliary metric. By contrast with the case for $ψ$, the associated energy density of $Ψ$ is not only conserved but is also non-negative.

description: Attaining social order is one of the principal dilemmas in the social sciences. Whereas most individuals and polities would be better off in a highly ordered society, their self-interested motivations instead often lead them to forgo cooperation and engage in behaviour that undermines social order. This paper develops a novel theory – termed crystallization – that shows how inter-territorial cooperation at lower levels of organization can sustain social order at a higher level. The framework is tested empirically to account for the integration of the European Union. All told, it is found that the extent of regional authority within a European Union member state is positively correlated with that state’s legal and economic integration into the European Union. These results are compatible with a modified account of liberal intergovernmentalism. More generally, it is contended that large-scale cooperation between groups or states is causally linked to the concatenation of smaller scale governance units and polities nested within them. Thus, it emerges, somewhat paradoxically, that further centralization at the European Union level is likely to be encouraged by decentralization within the member states.

description: Lie symmetries are applied to classify the source of the magnetic field for the Pulsar equation near to the surface of the neutron star. We find that there are six possible different admitted Lie algebras. We apply the corresponding Lie invariants to reduce the Pulsar equation close to the surface to an ordinary differential equation. This equation is solved either with the use of Lie symmetries or the application of the ARS algorithm for singularity analysis to write the analytic solution as a Laurent expansion. These solutions are called inner solutions.

description: We comment on the recent papers by Costa et al and Emparan, which show how one might generate supergravity solutions describing certain dielectric branes in ten dimensions. The ``basic'' such solutions describe either N fundamental strings or N D4-branes expanding into a D6-brane, with topology M^2 x S^5 or M^5 x S^2 respectively. Treating these solutions in a unified way, we note that they allow for precisely two values of the radius of the relevant sphere, and that the solution with the smaller value of the radius has the lower energy. Moreover, the possible radii in both cases agree up to numerical factors with the corresponding solutions of the D6-brane worldvolume theory. We thus argue that these supergravity solutions are the correct gravitational description of the dielectric branes of Emparan and Myers.

In this retrospective study, a total of 42 patients including 32 patients with histologically proven glioma relapse and 10 patients with PTRE (histopathologic follow-up, n = 4, serial imaging follow-up, n = 6) were evaluated regarding recurrence. PET/MR-imaging was semi-automatically analysed based on FET tracer uptake using conservative SUV thresholding (isocontour 80%) with emphasis on the metabolically most active regions. Mean (relative) apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCmean, rADCmean), standardised-uptake-value (SUV) including target-to-background (TBR) ratio were determined.

description: Continuous-time optimization models have successfully been used to capture the impact of ramping limitations in power systems. In this paper, the continuous-time framework is adapted to model flexible hydropower resources interacting with slow-ramping thermal generators to minimize the hydrothermal system cost of operation. To accurately represent the non-linear hydropower production function with forbidden production zones, binary variables must be used when linearizing the discharge variables and the continuity constraints on individual hydropower units must be relaxed. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed continuous-time hydrothermal model, a small-scale case study of a hydropower area connected to a thermal area through a controllable high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable is presented. Results show how the flexibility of the hydropower can reduce the need for ramping by thermal units triggered by intermittent renewable power generation. A reduction of 34% of the structural imbalances in the system is achieved by using the continuous-time model.

description: This paper analyses the statistical distribution of war size. We find strong support for a Pareto-type distribution (power law) using data from different sources (COW and UCDP) and periods. A power law describes accurately the size distribution of all wars, but also the distribution of the sample of wars in any given period. The estimated Pareto exponent is always less than 1, indicating that the distribution is heavy-tailed; this means that the war average loss is controlled by the largest conflicts. Furthermore, the study of battle deaths’growth rates reveals a clear decreasing pattern; the growth of deaths declines faster the greater the number of initial deaths.
Magnon-polaron and Spin-polaron Signatures in the Specific Heat and Electrical Resistivity of $La_{0.6}Y_{0.1}Ca_{0.3}MnO_3$ in Zero Magnetic Field, and the Effect of $Mn-O-Mn$ Bond Environment

description: $La_{0.6}Y_{0.1}Ca_{0.3}MnO_{3}$, an $ABO_{3}$ perovskite manganite oxide, exhibits a non trivial behavior in the vicinity of the sharp peak found in the resistivity $ρ$ as a function of temperature $T$ in zero magnetic field. The various features seen on $dρ/dT$ are discussed in terms of competing phase transitions. They are related to the $Mn-O-Mn$ bond environment depending on the content of the $A$ crystallographic site. A Ginzburg-Landau type theory is presented for incorporating concurrent phase transitions. The specific heat $C$ of such a compound is also examined from 50 till 200 K. A log-log analysis indicates different regimes. In the low temperature conducting ferromagnetic phase, a collective magnon signature ($C \simeq T^{3/2}$) is found as for what are called magnon-polaron excitations. A $C \simeq T^{2/3}$ law is found at high temperature and discussed in terms of the fractal dimension of the conducting network of the weakly conducting (so-called insulating) phase and Orbach estimate of the excitation spectral behaviors. The need of considering both independent spin scattering and collective spin scattering is thus emphasized. The report indicates a remarkable agreement for the Fisher-Langer formula, i.e. $C$ $\sim$ $dρ/dT$ at second order phase transitions. Within the Attfield model, we find an inverse square root relationship between the critical temperature(s) and the total local $Mn-O-Mn$ strain.

description: The present study provides the first-ever report on the language shift from Tibetan to Arabic among descendants of Tibetan families who migrated from the Tibet region to Saudi Arabia around 70 years ago. The aim of this study was to determine whether three age groups had adopted different practices in terms of maintaining Tibetan or shifting to Hijazi Arabic. To this end, 96 male and female members of the Tibetan community responded to a questionnaire in which they were asked about their code choice in different domains (home, neighbourhood, friends and relatives, expressing emotion, and performing religious rituals). The data revealed significant intergenerational differences between members of the community in terms of the extent of the shift to Arabic, with Tibetan rarely used by younger members and older members making only slightly more use of it. The difference between the three age groups was significant, at a p-value of .001.

description: This paper contributes to the normative literature on mitigation and adaptation by framing the question of their optimal policy balance in the context of catastrophic climate risk. The analysis uses the WITCH integrated assessment model with a module that models the endogenous risk of experiencing an economic catastrophe if temperature increases above a certain threshold. We find that the risk of a catastrophic outcome would encourage countries to reduce emissions even in the absence of a coordinated global agreement on climate change and to realign the policy balance from adaptation toward more mitigation. Our analysis also shows that adaptation transfers from and strategic unilateral commitments to adaptation in developed countries appear to provide weak incentives for reducing emissions in developing countries. Thus our first conclusion is that precautionary considerations, rather than the ability to reduce smooth damage increases, justify mitigation as a fundamental policy option. Accordingly, adaptation is needed to cope with the non-catastrophic damages that countries would fail to address with mitigation Our second conclusion is that supporting adaptation in developing countries should be considered primarily as a mean for ensuring equity or improving development, and very marginally as a mitigation incentive.

description: Abstract The decline of the groundwater in the Ogallala Aquifer may create an uncertainty for water availability in the associated states in the future. Effective policy reforms are essential to determine efficient present and future use of water resources. Therefore, this study explores the option value for reducing current groundwater use to ensure the water availability in the Ogallala aquifer for future use. A double- bounded referendum format contingent valuation survey was carried out to investigate households’ preferences and the mean willingness to pay (WTP) of households for conserving the groundwater is empirically examined using a censored regression model. The estimated mean WTP to conserve one million acre feet of water for future use is $17.66 and the total willingness to pay is $28.96 million. The results indicate education and prior knowledge about the aquifer are significant determinants that are positively related to WTP whereas age is a significant factor that is negatively related to WTP in conserving the groundwater in the Ogallala Aquifer. This study provides policy makers with valuable information for building effective and sustainable policies, and the value estimates provided by this study will help future studies of groundwater use on the Texas High Plains.

description: Understanding crowd mobility behaviors would be a key enabler for crowd management in smart cities, benefiting various sectors such as public safety, tourism and transportation. This article discusses the existing challenges and the recent advances to overcome them and allow sharing information across stakeholders of crowd management through Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. The article proposes the usage of the new federated interoperable semantic IoT platform (FIESTA-IoT), which is considered as "a system of systems". The platform can support various IoT applications for crowd management in smart cities. In particular, the article discusses two integrated IoT systems for crowd mobility: 1) Crowd Mobility Analytics System, 2) Crowd Counting and Location System (from the SmartSantander testbed). Pilot studies are conducted in Gold Coast, Australia and Santander, Spain to fulfill various requirements such as providing online and offline crowd mobility analyses with various sensors in different regions. The analyses provided by these systems are shared across applications in order to provide insights and support crowd management in smart city environments.

description: Leukemia-associated antigens (LAAs) and HLA-I epitopes published previously have shown promise in inducing leukemia-specific T cell responses. However, the clinical responses are limited, and clinical effectiveness is yet to be achieved. Limitations, among others, being the LAAs themselves, the indirect approach to HLA-I epitope identification by reverse immunology, and the use of single or few LAAs and HLA-I epitopes, which limits the spectrum of inducible tumor-specific T cells. Use of a direct approach to identify naturally processed and presented HLA-I epitopes from LAAs, and higher numbers of antigens for T cell-mediated immunotherapy for leukemia may enhance clinical responses and broaden clinical effectiveness. In a prior study we used immunoaffinity purification of HLA-I peptide complexes from the differentiated myeloid tumor cell lines MUTZ3 and THP1 coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). From this we identified in the current study seven new HLA-I epitopes and the corresponding LAAs for myeloid leukemia. In comparison, the myeloid HLA-I epitopes reported here were generally stronger HLA-binders that induce stronger T cell responses than those previously published, and their source LAAs had higher immunogenicity, higher expression levels in myeloid tumors cells compared to normal hemopoietin and other major normal tissues, and more protein interaction partners, and they are targeted by CD8 T cells in CML patients. This study analyses and compares the LAAs and HLA-I epitopes based on various immunotherapeutic targets selection criteria, and highlights new targets for T cell-mediated immunotherapy for leukemia.

description: This paper estimates the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) index for the U.S. agricultural sector from the period 1970 to 2004 and decomposes the resulting TFP estimation in the Trans-logarithmic production function for U.S. agriculture for the same period to determine the residual measure that explains variation in output aside from land, labor and capital inputs. The objective is to identify the major sources of agricultural productivity in the U.S. from the period mentioned and furthermore estimate the residual in the production function that the Neoclassical production function does not explicitly explain.The results indicate a collective contribution of intermediate inputs such as pesticides use and energy inputs and infrastructural development spending such as overall federal disbursement on highway on TFP and consequently on agricultural output growth for the time period under consideration.

description: Some pairs of neutron star models can intuitively be thought of as being `closer' together than others, in the sense that more precise observations might be required to distinguish between them than would be necessary for other pairs. In this paper, borrowing ideas from the study of geometrodynamics, we introduce a mathematical formalism to define a geometric distance between stellar models, to provide a quantitative meaning to this notion of closeness. In particular, it is known that the set of all metrics on a Riemannian manifold itself admits the structure of a Riemannian manifold (`configuration manifold'), which comes equipped with a canonical metric. By thinking of a stationary star as being a particular $3+1$ metric, the structure of which is determined through the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff relations and their generalisations, points on a suitably restricted configuration manifold can be thought of as representing different stars, and distances between these points can be computed. We develop the necessary mathematical machinery to build the configuration manifold of neutron star models, and provide some worked examples to illustrate how this space might be used in future studies of stellar structure.

Elliptic flow from two- and four-particle correlations in Au + Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 130 GeV
Creators: name: STAR Collaboration
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Experiment (nucl-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Elliptic flow holds much promise for studying the early-time thermalization attained in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions. Flow measurements also provide a means of distinguishing between hydrodynamic models and calculations which approach the low density (dilute gas) limit. Among the effects that can complicate the interpretation of elliptic flow measurements are azimuthal correlations that are unrelated to the reaction plane (non-flow correlations). Using data for Au + Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 130 GeV from the STAR TPC, it is found that four-particle correlation analyses can reliably separate flow and non-flow correlation signals. The latter account for on average about 15% of the observed second-harmonic azimuthal correlation, with the largest relative contribution for the most peripheral and the most central collisions. The results are also corrected for the effect of flow variations within centrality bins. This effect is negligible for all but the most central bin, where the correction to the elliptic flow is about a factor of two. A simple new method for two-particle flow analysis based on scalar products is described. An analysis based on the distribution of the magnitude of the flow vector is also described.
