description: We study the phenomena of decrease in lower critical solution temperature (LCST) with addition of kosmotropic (order-making) cosolvents in thermoresponsive polymer solutions. A combination of explicit solvent coarse-grained simulations and mean-field theory has been employed. The polymer-solvent LCST behavior in the theoretical models have been incorporated through the Kolomeisky-Widom solvophobic potential. Our results illustrate how the decrease in the LCST can be achieved by the reduction in the bulk solvent energy with addition of cosolvent. It is shown that this effect of cosolvent is weaker with increase in polymer hydrophilicity which can explain the absence of LCST decrease in PDEA, water and methanol systems. The coarse-grained nature of the models indicates that a mean energetic representation of the system is sufficient to understand the phenomena of LCST decrease.

description: The absolutely continuous spectrum of an ergodic family of one-dimensional Schrödinger operators is completely determined by the Lyapunov exponent as shown by Ishii, Kotani and Pastur. Moreover, the part of the theory developed by Kotani gives powerful tools for proving the absence of absolutely continuous spectrum, the presence of absolutely continuous spectrum, and even the presence of purely absolutely continuous spectrum. We review these results and their recent applications to a number of problems: the absence of absolutely continuous spectrum for rough potentials, the absence of absolutely continuous spectrum for potentials defined by the doubling map on the circle, and the absence of singular spectrum for the subcritical almost Mathieu operator.

description: Using numerical hydrodynamics code, we perform various idealized galaxy merger simulations to study the star formation (SF) of two merging disk galaxies. Our simulations include gas accretion onto supermassive black holes and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback. By comparing AGN simulations with those without AGNs, we attempt to understand when the AGN feedback effect is significant. With ~70 simulations, we investigated the SF with the AGN effect in mergers with variety of mass ratios, inclinations, orbits, galaxy structures and morphologies. Using these merger simulations with AGN feedback, we measure merger-driven SF using the burst efficiency parameter introduced by Cox et al. We confirm the previous studies that, in galaxy mergers, AGN suppresses SF more efficiently than in isolated galaxies. However, we additionally find that the effect of AGNs on SF is larger in major mergers than in minor mergers. In minor merger simulations with different primary bulge-to-total ratios, the effect of bulge fraction on the merger-driven SF decreases due to AGN feedback. We create models of Sa, Sb and Sc type galaxies and compare their SF properties while undergoing mergers. With the current AGN prescriptions, the difference in merger-driven SF is not as pronounced as that in the recent observational study of Kaviraj. We discuss the implications of this discrepancy.

description: We address the question of whether atomic bound states begin to stabilize in the short ultra-intense field limit. We provide a general theory of ionization probability and investigate its gauge invariance. For a wide range of potentials we find an upper and lower bound by non-perturbative methods, which clearly exclude the possibility that the ultra intense field might have a stabilizing effect on the atom. For short pulses we find almost complete ionization as the field strength increases.

description: Background: Tremor is the most common movement disorder and strongly increases in incidence and prevalence with aging. Although not life threatening, upper-limb tremors hamper the independence of 65% of people suffering from them affected persons, greatly impacting their quality of life. Current treatments include pharmacotherapy and surgery (thalamotomy and deep brain stimulation). However, these options are not sufficient for approximately 25% of patients. Therefore, further research and new therapeutic options are required to effectively manage pathological tremor. Methods: This paper presents findings of two research projects in which two different wearable robots for tremor management were developed based on force loading and validated. The first consisted of a robotic exoskeleton that applied forces to tremulous limbs and consistently attenuated mild and severe tremors. The second was a neuroprosthesis based on transcutaneous neurostimulation. A total of 22 patients suffering from parkinsonian or essential tremor (ET) of different severities were recruited for experimental validation, and both systems were evaluated using standard tasks employed for neurological examination. The inclusion criterion was a postural and/or kinetic pathological upper-limb tremor resistant to medication. Results: The results demonstrate that both approaches effectively suppressed tremor in most patients, although further research is required. The work presented here is based on clinical evidence from a small number of patients (n = 10 for robotic exoskeleton and n = 12 for the neuroprosthesis), but most had a positive response to the approaches. In summary, biomechanical loading is non-invasive and painless. It may be effective in patients who are insufficiently responsive (or have adverse reactions) to drugs or in whom surgery is contraindicated. Discussion: This paper identifies and evaluates biomechanical loading approaches to tremor management and discusses their potential.

description: Hamilton-Jacobi formalism as a powerful method is being utilized to reconsider warm inflationary scenario, where the scalar field as the main component deriving inflation interacts with other field. Separating the context to strong and weak dissipative regimes, the goal is followed for two popular function of dissipation coefficient. Applying slow-rolling approximations, the required perturbation parameters are extracted and by comparison to the latest Planck data, the free parameters are restricted. Possibility of producing an acceptable inflation is studied where the result shows that for all cases the model could successfully suggests amplitude of scalar perturbation, scalar spectral index , its running, and the tensor-to-scalar ratio.

description: Radio relics at the peripheries of galaxy clusters are tracers of the elusive cluster merger shocks. We report the discovery of a single radio relic in the galaxy cluster PLCK G200.9-28.2 ($z=0.22$, $M_{500} = 2.7\pm0.2 \times 10^{14} M_{\odot}$) using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope at 235 and 610 MHz and the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array at 1500 MHz. The relic has a size of $\sim 1 \times 0.28$ Mpc, an arc-like morphology and is located at 0.9 Mpc from the X-ray brightness peak in the cluster. The integrated spectral index of the relic is $1.21\pm0.15$. The spectral index map between 235 and 610 MHz shows steepening from the outer to the inner edge of the relic in line with the expectation from a cluster merger shock. Under the assumption of diffusive shock acceleration, the radio spectral index implies a Mach number of $3.3\pm1.8$ for the shock. The analysis of archival XMM Newton data shows that PLCK G200.9-28.2 consists of a northern brighter sub-cluster, and a southern sub-cluster in a state of merger. This cluster has the lowest mass among the clusters hosting single radio relics. The position of the Planck Sunyaev Ze'ldovich effect in this cluster is offset by 700 kpc from the X-ray peak in the direction of the radio relic, suggests a physical origin for the offset. Such large offsets in low mass clusters can be a useful tool to select disturbed clusters and to study the state of merger.

description: We propose a scheme for generating vibrational pair coherent states of the motion of an ion in a two-dimensional trap. In our scheme, the trapped ion is excited bichromatically by three laser beams along different directions in the X-Y plane of the ion trap. We show that if the initial vibrational state is given by a two-mode Fock state, the final steady state, indicated by the extinction of the fluorescence emitted by the ion, is a pure state. The motional state of the ion in the equilibrium realizes that of the highly-correlated pair coherent state.

Simulations of imaging extended sources using the GMRT and the U-GMRT: Implications to observing strategies

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)

description: Astrophysical sources such as radio halos and relics in galaxy clusters, supernova remnants and radio galaxies have angular sizes from a few to several $10$s of arcminutes. In radio interferometric imaging of such sources, the largest angular size of the source that can be imaged is limited by the shortest projected baseline towards the source. It is essential to determine the limitations of the recovery of the extended features on various angular scales in order to interpret the radio image. We simulated observations of a model extended source of Gaussian shape with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) using Common Astronomy Software Applications (CASA). The recovery in flux density and in morphology of the model source was quantified in a variety of observing cases with changing source properties and the uv-coverage. If $θ_{lar}$ is the largest angular scale sampled in an observation with the GMRT, then $>80\%$ recovery of a source of size $0.3\timesθ_{lar}$ is possible. The upgraded GMRT (U-GMRT) providing 200 MHz instantaneous bandwidth between 300 - 500 MHz will allow a factor of two better recovery of a source of size $θ_{lar}$ as compared to the GMRT at 300 MHz with 33 MHz bandwidth. We provide quantitative estimates for the improvement in extended source recovery in observations at low elevations and long durations. The presented simulations can be carried out for future radio telescopes such as the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) for optimisation of observing strategies to image extended radio sources.

description: Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are amongst the fastest objects in our Milky Way. These stars are predicted to come from the Galactic center (GC) and travel along unbound orbits across the Galaxy. In the coming years, the ESA satellite Gaia will provide the most complete and accurate catalogue of the Milky Way, with full astrometric parameters for more than $1$ billion stars. In this paper, we present the expected sample size and properties (mass, magnitude, spatial, velocity distributions) of HVSs in the Gaia stellar catalogue. We build three Gaia mock catalogues of HVSs anchored to current observations, exploring different ejection mechanisms and GC stellar population properties. In all cases, we predict hundreds to thousands of HVSs with precise proper motion measurements within a few tens of kpc from us. For stars with a relative error in total proper motion below $10 \%$, the mass range extends to ~$10 M_{\odot}$ but peaks at ~$1$ $M_\odot$. The majority of Gaia HVSs will therefore probe a different mass and distance range compared to the current non-Gaia sample. In addition, a subset of a few hundreds to a few thousands of HVSs with $M$ ~ $3$ $M_\odot$ will be bright enough to have a precise measurement of the three-dimensional velocity from Gaia alone. Finally, we show that Gaia will provide more precise proper motion measurements for the current sample of HVS candidates. This will help identifying their birthplace narrowing down their ejection location, and confirming or rejecting their nature as HVSs. Overall, our forecasts are extremely encouraging in terms of quantity and quality of HVS data that can be exploited to constrain both the Milky Way potential and the GC properties.

description: Under certain constraints on the parameters a, b and c, it is known that Schroedinger's equation -y"(x)+(ax^6+bx^4+cx^2)y(x) = E y(x), a > 0, with the sextic anharmonic oscillator potential is exactly solvable. In this article we show that the exact wave function y is the generating function for a set of orthogonal polynomials P_n^{(t)}(x) in the energy variable E. Some of the properties of these polynomials are discussed in detail and our analysis reveals scaling and factorization properties that are central to quasi-exact solvability. We also prove that this set of orthogonal polynomials can be reduced,by means of a simple scaling transformation, to a remarkable class of orthogonal polynomials, P_n(E)=P_n^{(0)}(E) recently discovered by Bender and Dunne.

description: The generalization of the conformal scattering method for small-angle scattering processes involving magnetic monopoles and ordinary charges is constructed. Using this generalization we show that introducing of magnetic charges corresponds to analytical continuation of the eikonal amplitude in the complex charge plane (the imaginary part is proportional to the magnetic charge). We calculate explicitly the eikonal amplitude for scattering on a dyon and two monopoles in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions. The singularities of the corresponding amplitudes (focal points) are studied in details.

For both problems we formulate a setup where the questions boil down to comparing two processes at a stopping time. We state algebraic results showing that local martingales for the processes have enough in common. When one has in addition integrability, the method gives reversibility and duality for any polynomial expected value.

description: Three dimensional Thirring model with $N$ four-component Dirac fermions, reformulated as a lattice gauge theory, is studied by computer simulation. According to an $8^{3}$ data and preliminary $16^3$ data, chiral symmetry is found to be spontaneously broken for $N=2,\;4$ and 6. $N=2$ data exhibits long tail of the non-vanishing chiral condensate into weak coupling region, and $N=6$ case shows phase separation between the strong coupling region and the weak coupling region. Although the comparison between $8^3$ data and $16^3$ data shows large finite volume effects, an existence of the critical fermion flavor number $N_{\rm cr}$ $(2

description: MPI-learn and MPI-opt are libraries to perform large-scale training and hyper-parameter optimization for deep neural networks. The two libraries, based on Message Passing Interface, allows to perform these tasks on GPU clusters, through different kinds of parallelism. The main characteristic of these libraries is their flexibility: the user has complete freedom in building her own model, thanks to the multi-backend support. In addition, the library supports several cluster architectures, allowing a deployment on multiple platforms. This generality can make this the basis for a train & optimise service for the HEP community. We present scalability results obtained from two typical HEP use-case: jet identification from raw data and shower generation from a GAN model. Results on GPU clusters were obtained at the ORNL TITAN supercomputer ad other HPC facilities, as well as exploiting commercial cloud resources and OpenStack. A comprehensive comparisons of scalability performance across platforms will be presented, together with a detailed description of the libraries and their functionalities.

Mechanochemical fluctuation theorem and thermodynamics of self-phoretic motors

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: Microscopic dynamical aspects of the propulsion of nanomotors by self-phoretic mechanisms are considered. Propulsion by self-diffusiophoresis relies on the mechanochemical coupling between the fluid velocity field and the concentration fields induced by asymmetric catalytic reactions on the motor surface. The consistency between the thermodynamics of this coupling and the microscopic reversibility of the underlying molecular dynamics is investigated. For this purpose coupled Langevin equations for the translational, rotational, and chemical fluctuations of self-phoretic motors are derived. A mechanochemical fluctuation theorem for the joint probability to find the motor at position r after n reactive events have occurred during the time interval t is also derived. An important result that follows from this analysis is the identification of an effect that is reciprocal to self-propulsion by diffusiophoresis, which leads to the possibility of fuel synthesis by mechanochemical coupling to external force and torque.
Insolubility of the Quantum Measurement Problem for Unsharp Observables
Creators: name: Busch, P.

Year: 1996

description: The quantum mechanical measurement problem is the difficulty of dealing with the indefiniteness of the pointer observable at the conclusion of a measurement process governed by unitary quantum dynamics. There has been hope to solve this problem by eliminating idealizations from the characterization of measurement. We state and prove two `insolubility theorems' that disappoint this hope. In both the initial state of the apparatus is taken to be mixed rather than pure, and the correlation of the object observable and the pointer observable is allowed to be imperfect. In the {\it insolubility theorem for sharp observables}, which is only a modest extension of previous results, the object observable is taken to be an arbitrary projection valued measure. In the {\it insolubility theorem for unsharp observables}, which is essentially new, the object observable is taken to be a positive operator v alued measure. Both theorems show that the measurement problem is not the consequence of neglecting the ever-present imperfections of actual measurements.

description: BAT.jl, the Julia version of the Bayesian Analysis Toolkit, is a software package which is designed to help solve statistical problems encountered in Bayesian inference. Typical examples are the extraction of the values of the free parameters of a model, the comparison of different models in the light of a given data set, and the test of the validity of a model to represent the data set at hand. BAT.jl is based on Bayes' Theorem and it is realized with the use of different algorithms. These give access to the full posterior probability distribution, and they enable parameter estimation, limit setting and uncertainty propagation. BAT.jl is implemented in Julia and allows for a flexible definition of mathematical models and applications while keeping in mind the reliability and speed requirements of the numerical operations. It provides implementations (or links to implementations) of algorithms for sampling, optimization and integration. While predefined models exist for standard cases, such as simple counting experiments, binomial problems or Gaussian models, its full strength lies in the analysis of complex and high-dimensional models often encountered in high energy and nuclear physics. BAT.jl is a completely re-written code based on the original BAT code written in C++ . There is no backward compatibility whatsoever, but the spirit is the same: providing a tool for Bayesian computations of complex models. The poster will summarize the current status of the BAT.jl project and highlight the challenges faced in the fields of high energy and nuclear physics.

description: Scientists are increasingly interested in discovering community structure from modern relational data arising on large-scale social networks. While many methods have been proposed for learning community structure, few account for the fact that these modern networks arise from processes of interactions in the population. We introduce block edge exchangeable models (BEEM) for the study of interaction networks with latent node-level community structure. The block vertex components model (B-VCM) is derived as a canonical example. Several theoretical and practical advantages over traditional vertex-centric approaches are highlighted. In particular, BEEMs allow for sparse degree structure and power-law degree distributions within communities. Our theoretical analysis bounds the misspecification rate of block assignments while supporting simulations show the properties of the network can be recovered. A computationally tractable Gibbs algorithm is derived. We demonstrate the proposed model using post-comment interaction data from Talklife, a large-scale online peer-to-peer support network, and contrast the learned communities from those using standard algorithms including degree-corrected stochastic block models, popularity-adjusted block models, and weighted stochastic block models. Supplementary materials for this article are available online, including a standardized description of the materials available for reproducing the work.
Generation of Belle II pixel detector background data with a GAN

description: Belle II uses a Geant4-based simulation to determine the detector response to the generated decays of interest. A realistic detector simulation requires the inclusion of noise from beam-induced backgrounds. This is accomplished by overlaying random trigger data to the simulated signal. To have statistically independent Monte-Carlo events a high number of random trigger events are desirable. However, the size of the background events, in particular the part of the pixel vertex detector (PXD), is so large that it is infeasible to record, store, and overlay the same amount as simulated signal events. Our approach to overcome the limitation of the simulation by storage resources is to use a Wasserstein generative adverserial network to generate PXD background data. A challenge is the high resolution of 250x768 pixels of in total 40 sensors with correlations between them. We will present the current status of this approach and assess its quality based on tracking performance studies.

Harmaline Tremor: Underlying Mechanisms in a Potential Animal Model of Essential Tremor
Creators: Handforth, Adrian
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Neurosciences
subject: FOS: Clinical medicine

description: Background: Harmaline and harmine are tremorigenic β-carbolines that, on administration to experimental animals, induce an acute postural and kinetic tremor of axial and truncal musculature. This drug-induced action tremor has been proposed as a model of essential tremor. Here we review what is known about harmaline tremor. Methods: Using the terms harmaline and harmine on PubMed, we searched for papers describing the effects of these β-carbolines on mammalian tissue, animals, or humans. Results: Investigations over four decades have shown that harmaline induces rhythmic burst-firing activity in the medial and dorsal accessory inferior olivary nuclei that is transmitted via climbing fibers to Purkinje cells and to the deep cerebellar nuclei, then to brainstem and spinal cord motoneurons. The critical structures required for tremor expression are the inferior olive, climbing fibers, and the deep cerebellar nuclei; Purkinje cells are not required. Enhanced synaptic norepinephrine or blockade of ionic glutamate receptors suppresses tremor, whereas enhanced synaptic serotonin exacerbates tremor. Benzodiazepines and muscimol suppress tremor. Alcohol suppresses harmaline tremor but exacerbates harmaline-associated neural damage. Recent investigations on the mechanism of harmaline tremor have focused on the T-type calcium channel. Discussion: Like essential tremor, harmaline tremor involves the cerebellum, and classic medications for essential tremor have been found to suppress harmaline tremor, leading to utilization of the harmaline model for preclinical testing of antitremor drugs. Limitations are that the model is acute, unlike essential tremor, and only approximately half of the drugs reported to suppress harmaline tremor are subsequently found to suppress tremor in clinical trials.
