description: The mass hierarchy among the three generations of quarks and charged leptons is one of the greatest mysteries in particle physics. In various flavor models, the origin of this phenomenon is attributed to a series of hierarchical spontaneous symmetry breakings, most of which are beyond the reach of particle colliders. We point out that the observation of a multi-peaked stochastic gravitational wave signal from a series of cosmological phase transitions could well be a unique probe of the mechanism behind flavor hierarchies. To illustrate this point, we show how near future ground- and space-based gravitational wave observatories could detect up to three peaks in the recently proposed $PS^3$ model.

description: Για την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση, τις τελευταίες δεκαετίες, η κατάρτιση και η δια βίου μάθηση αποτελούν το κύριο μέσο για τη στήριξη της απασχόλησης και ως εκ τούτου, τις τοποθετεί στον πυρήνα των προτεραιοτήτων της. Η Πολιτική Συνοχής επενδύει στο ανθρώπινο κεφάλαιο προκειμένου να στηρίξει την απασχόληση και την ανταγωνιστικότητα, να αμβλύνει τις κοινωνικές ανισότητες και να επιτύχει την κοινωνική συνοχή μεταξύ κρατών μελών, περιφερειών και ατόμων. Τα αυστηρά κριτήρια της οικονομικής και νομισματικής ένωσης σε συνδυασμό με την έλευση της διεθνούς χρηματοπιστωτικής κρίσης το 2008 και της μετέπειτα κοινωνικο-οικονομικής κρίσης που προκάλεσε η πανδημία Covid-19, συντέλεσαν στις μεταβολές που επήλθαν στην Πολιτική Συνοχής. Η παγκόσμια οικονομία και ο ταχύς ψηφιακός μετασχηματισμός απαιτούν από τον παραγωγικό πληθυσμό να διαθέτει ένα ευρύ φάσμα γνώσεων και δεξιοτήτων προκειμένου να αποκτήσει πρόσβαση και να ενταχθεί στην αγορά εργασίας. Στην παρούσα εργασία επιχειρείται η διερεύνηση της επίδρασης της κατάρτισης και δια βίου μάθησης στην απασχόληση και ανταγωνιστικότητα της Ε.Ε. καθώς και η διερεύνηση της μελλοντικής επίδρασης των πρόσφατων μεταβολών που υπέστη η Πολιτική Συνοχής. Τα αποτελέσματα της διερεύνησης καταδεικνύουν ότι η κατάρτιση και η δια βίου μάθηση επιδρούν θετικά στη στήριξη της απασχόλησης και της ανταγωνιστικότητας της Ε.Ε. Ωστόσο, ο νεοφιλελεύθερος προσανατολισμός της κοινωνικής ατζέντας της Ε.Ε. βλέπει τη μία όψη του νομίσματος. Αν και η κύρια επιδίωξη της Ε.Ε. είναι η αύξηση της απασχόλησης, λαμβάνει υπ’ όψιν τη διαρθρωτική ανεργία μετατοπίζοντας την ευθύνη στο άτομο για την απασχολησιμότητά του ενώ ταυτόχρονα δημιουργεί ένα νέο εργασιακό καθεστώς. Η εντατικοποίηση ελέγχου και παρακολούθησης των εθνικών σχεδίων δράσης για την εναρμόνιση των εθνικών πολιτικών κατάρτισης και δια βίου μάθησης που επιφέρουν οι πρόσφατες μεταβολές της Πολιτικής Συνοχής, έχουν ως συνέπεια την αυξανόμενη επιρροή της υπερεθνικής έναντι της εθνικής πολιτικής, χωρίς ωστόσο, να αναμένονται αντίστοιχες μεταβολές στις σχέσεις μεταξύ των κρατών μελών και της Ευρωπαϊκής Επιτροπής.

description: Consider a correlated Gaussian random energy model built by successively adding one particle (spin) into the system and imposing the positivity of the associated covariance matrix. We show that the validity of a recently isolated condition ensuring the existence of the thermodynamic limit forces the covariance matrix to exhibit the Parisi replica symmetry breaking scheme with a convexity condition on the matrix elements.

description: Stellar halos of galaxies, primarily formed through the accretion of smaller objects, are important to understand the hierarchical mass assembly of galaxies. However, the inner regions of stellar halos in disk galaxies are predicted to have an in-situ component that is expected to be prominent along the major axis. Kinematic information is crucial to disentangle the contribution of the in-situ component from the accreted stellar halos. The low surface brightness of stellar halos makes it inaccessible with traditional integrated light spectroscopy. In this work, using a novel technique, we study the kinematics of the stellar halo of the edge-on galaxy NGC 4945. We couple new deep Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer spectroscopic observations with existing Hubble Space Telescope imaging data to spectroscopically measure the line-of-sight (LOS) heliocentric velocity and velocity dispersion in two fields at a galactocentric distance of 12.2 kpc (outer disk field) and 34.6 kpc (stellar halo field) along NGC 4945 major axis, by stacking individual spectra of red giant branch and asymptotic giant branch stars. We obtain a LOS velocity and dispersion of 673+/-11 km/s and 73+/-14 km/s, respectively, for the outer disk field. This is consistent with the mean HI velocity of the disk at that distance. For the halo field we obtain a LOS velocity and dispersion of 519+/-12 km/s and 42+/-22 km/s. The halo fields' velocity measurement is within ~40 km/s from the systemic LOS velocity of NGC 4945, which is 563 km/s, suggesting that its stellar halo at 34.6 kpc along the major axis is counter-rotating and is of likely accretion origin. This provides the first ever kinematic measurement of the stellar halo of a Milky Way-mass galaxy outside the Local Group from its resolved stellar population, and establishes a powerful technique for measuring the velocity field of the stellar halos of nearby galaxies.

Ground state solution of Bose-Einstein condensate by directly minimizing the energy functional

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)

description: In this paper, we propose a new numerical method to compute the ground state solution of trapped interacting Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) at zero or very low temperature by directly minimizing the energy functional via finite element approximation. As preparatory steps we begin with the 3d Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE), scale it to get a three-parameter model and show how to reduce it to 2d and 1d GPEs. The ground state solution is formulated by minimizing the energy functional under a constraint, which is discretized by the finite element method. The finite element approximation for 1d, 2d with radial symmetry and 3d with spherical symmetry and cylindrical symmetry are presented in detail and approximate ground state solutions, which are used as initial guess in our practical numerical computation of the minimization problem, of the GPE in two extreme regimes: very weak interactions and strong repulsive interactions are provided. Numerical results in 1d, 2d with radial symmetry and 3d with spherical symmetry and cylindrical symmetry for atoms ranging up to millions in the condensation are reported to demonstrate the novel numerical method. Furthermore, comparisons between the ground state solutions and their Thomas-Fermi approximations are also reported. Extension of the numerical method to compute the excited states of GPE is also presented.

description: We present a new derivation of the spectral gap of the totally asymmetric exclusion process on a half-filled ring of size L by using the Bethe Ansatz. We show that, in the large L limit, the Bethe equations reduce to a simple transcendental equation involving the polylogarithm, a classical special function. By solving that equation, the gap and the dynamical exponent are readily obtained. Our method can be extended to a system with an arbitrary density of particles. Keywords: ASEP, Bethe Ansatz, Dynamical Exponent, Spectral Gap.

description: Integrating solid-state quantum emitters with nanophotonic resonators is essential for efficient spin-photon interfacing and optical networking applications. While diamond color centers have proven to be excellent candidates for emerging quantum technologies, their integration with optical resonators remains challenging. Conventional approaches based on etching resonators into diamond often negatively impact color center performance and offer low device yield. Here, we developed an integrated photonics platform based on templated atomic layer deposition of TiO2 on diamond membranes. Our fabrication method yields high-performance nanophotonic devices while avoiding etching wavelength-scale features into diamond. Moreover, this technique generates highly reproducible optical resonances and can be iterated on individual diamond samples, a unique processing advantage. Our approach is suitable for a broad range of both wavelengths and substrates and can enable high-cooperativity interfacing between cavity photons and coherent defects in diamond or silicon carbide, rare earth ions, or other material systems.

Subjects: Institutional and Behavioral Economics

description: Transition of economies in former socialist countries started in the last decade of the last century, and in diferent economies there were a variety of intensity and quality. In some of these countries the transition process have been completed, while in others, including Serbia – is still in progress. In the economic theory, transition is explained as a consequence of the necessity of the socialist model collapse and transformation of centralized-planned to a market economy. Transition of Serbian economy has started with some delay at the beginning of this century, after the turbulent years of the dissolution of former Yugoslavia, sanctions, hyperinflation and a large decline of the majority of companies. The main characteristics of the transition of the Serbian economy are manifested through the process of privatization of social enterprises by methods of tender and auction sales of social capital and by method of the restructuring of large business systems, as well as the formation and development of the category of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Transition of the Serbian economy is a long and painful process, but necessary step towards strengthening the competitive position of enterprises and reintegration of the Serbian economy in the international division of labor.
Boundary Layer Self-Similar Solution for the Hot Radiative Accretion onto a Rapidly Spinning Neutron Star

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We consider hot accretion onto a rapidly spinning neutron star (or any other compact object with a surface). A radiative hot settling flow has been discovered at low accretion rates in the early work by Medvedev & Narayan (2001) and analytical solution has been presented. It was shown later that this flow can match external medium smoothly, thus enforcing its physical feasibility. Here we complete the study of the global structure of such hot accretion by presenting the analytical solution for the boundary later, which forms between the bulk of the flow and the stellar surface. We confirm our results via full numerical solution of height-integrated two-temperature hydrodynamic equations.

description: The upcoming integration of Serbia into the EU imposes new rules on society and business. That changes is a good precondition for the development of professional services sector. The companies try to improve their competitiveness by adopting new products, technologies and services. The new business concepts have to be “translated” into understandable language for market operators which are looking for advice from consultants on how to adapt to these rules. The demand for professional services rises together with real needs, and is dictated by: privatization, value evaluation of the enterprise, foundation of new small and medium enterprises, as a supposition of faster development of market economy, new products, seeking for new markets etc.

description: The Kugel-Khomskii Hamiltonian for cubic titanates describes spin and orbital superexchange interactions between $d^1$ ions having three-fold degenerate $t_{2g}$ orbitals. Since orbitals do not couple along "inactive" axes, perpendicular to the orbital planes, the total number of electrons in $|α>$ orbitals in any such plane and the corresponding total spin are both conserved. A Mermin-Wagner construction shows that there is no long-range spin ordering at nonzero temperatures. Inclusion of spin-orbit coupling allows such ordering, but even then the excitation spectrum is gapless due to a continuous symmetry. Thus, the observed order and gap require more symmetry breaking terms.

Contemporary “urban” tourists are increasingly turning to environmentally clean areas and show growing interest for organic foods. Sustainable tourism has become imperative in the development of destination and an important requirement in determining its competitiveness. Bearing in mind the respectable resources that have Kolubara district in the Republic of Serbia and County of Istria in Republic of Croatia for the development of rural tourism and preservation of their natural environment, reasonable to expect that in the tourist offer of the area insisted on rural tourism and sustainable development. In the paper work highlighted the important resources which could develop rural tourism in these areas with emphasis on sustainable tourism development and the insistence on the uniqueness that each of these areas have. Also, there is a review of major planning and program documents the development of tourism in both regions with an emphasis on the importance played by destination marketing and management for each of them.

description: Η χρήση του ηλεκτρισμού από το τέλος του 19ου αιώνα άλλαξε άρδην την εικόνα και τις ανάγκες των κοινωνιών. Μέχρι τότε κυριαρχούσε σε απόλυτο βαθμό η χρήση του άνθρακα και του ατμού για την παραγωγή της απαιτούμενης ενέργειας τόσο για τη βιομηχανία, όσο και την καθημερινότητα των πολιτών. Με την εισαγωγή του ηλεκτρισμού στη ζωή των ανθρώπων, αναπτύχθηκαν νέες τεχνολογίες και εν γένει διευκολύνθηκε η ζωή εκατομμυρίων ατόμων πάνω στη γη · δεν είναι υπερβολή να χαρακτηρίσουμε την εισαγωγή του ηλεκτρισμού στη γη ως μία επανάσταση. Ο σημερινός άνθρωπος θεωρεί αδιανόητο πλέον να ζει χωρίς ηλεκτρισμό, μιας και ολόκληρη η ζωή μας είναι δομημένη γύρω από εκείνον και τις χρήσεις του. Για αυτό το λόγο, τόσο η παραγωγή, όσο και η διανομή στους πολίτες του ηλεκτρισμού αποτελεί κοινωνικό αγαθό, αναγκαίο απόλυτα για τη διαβίβασή του. Για να καλυφθούν οι ανάγκες των ανθρώπων σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο, η παραγωγή ηλεκτρισμού είναι συνεχής και πραγματοποιείται από σταθμούς παραγωγής πχ με καύση ορυκτών, υδροηλεκτρικούς, θερμοηλεκτρικούς, πυρηνικούς, καθώς και σταθμούς που χρησιμοποιούν ως πρώτη ύλη τις ανανεώσιμες πηγές ενέργειας. Στην Ελλάδα ο ηλεκτρισμός ήρθε για πρώτη φορά το 1889 κα αποτελεί έκτοτε αναπόσπαστο κομμάτι της ζωής της χώρας. Αρχικά η Ελλάδα, όπως και η υπόλοιπη Ευρώπη είχαν μία αγορά ενέργειας μονοπωλιακή και κλειστή. Η εικόνα αυτή άρχισε σταδιακά να αλλάζει και να βαδίζει προς την απελευθέρωσή της, τόσο εδώ, όσο και σε ολόκληρη την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση. Πρωτοπόρος στον τομέα αυτό υπήρξε το Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, το οποίο προχώρησε στην ιδιωτικοποίηση της ηλεκτρικής της βιομηχανίας, με τη Νορβηγία να την ακολουθεί. Το 2003 υιοθετήθηκε από την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση η Οδηγία 2003/54/ΕΚ, η οποία και υποχρέωσε όλα τα κράτη-μέλη της να απελευθερώσουν τις αγορές ενέργειας. Συνεπώς και η Ελλάδα αναγκάστηκε να βαδίσει σε αυτό το δρόμο και να μεταρρυθμίσει τον συγκεκριμένο κλάδο. Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία θα παρουσιάσουμε την πορεία απελευθέρωσης της αγοράς ενέργειας στην Ελλάδα και την κατάσταση που επικρατεί σήμερα στο χώρο αυτό, ενώ ταυτόχρονα θα κάνουμε μία σύντομη παρουσίαση της κατάστασης που επικρατεί και σε άλλες χώρες-μέλη της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης.

description: The Internet is world computer network that enables access to pieces of information and documents from distant sources. It is a combination of world communication system and the largest market in the world. Basic goal of internet sales is to enable more effective ways of approaching the buyer with reduced costs. Buyer is, at the same time, given the opportunity to compare prices between different offers of the same goods or services – competing prices. With classic retail trade it is not possible to achieve without significant loss in time spent on visiting competing stores looking for the same goods or services. This type of retail trade can increase the number of buyers in other words income, and it diminishes the costs of printing, inventory storing, salaries, etc. Internet retail trade is more and more present, but this form of trade needs cost analysis and planning in order for it to turn profit.

description: The LOng Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) is a panchromatic (360--910 nm), narrow-angle (field of view = 0.29 deg), high spatial resolution (pixel scale = 1.02 arcsec) visible light imager used on NASA's New Horizons (NH) mission for both science observations and optical navigation. Calibration observations began several months after the NH launch on 2006 January 19 and have been repeated annually throughout the course of the mission, which is ongoing. This paper describes the in-flight LORRI calibration measurements, and the results derived from our analysis of the calibration data. LORRI has been remarkably stable over time with no detectable changes (at the 1% level) in sensitivity or optical performance since launch. By employing 4 by 4 re-binning of the CCD pixels during read out, a special spacecraft tracking mode, exposure times of 30 sec, and co-addition of approximately 100 images, LORRI can detect unresolved targets down to V = 22 (SNR=5). LORRI images have an instantaneous dynamic range of 3500, which combined with exposure time control ranging from 0ms to 64,967 ms in 1ms steps supports high resolution, high sensitivity imaging of planetary targets spanning heliocentric distances from Jupiter to deep in the Kuiper belt, enabling a wide variety of scientific investigations. We describe here how to transform LORRI images from raw (engineering) units into scientific (calibrated) units for both resolved and unresolved targets. We also describe various instrumental artifacts that could affect the interpretation of LORRI images under some observing circumstances.

description: International business is very exposed to political risk because large number of participants. Political risk is one of the hardest kind of measurable risk that are present in international business. The perception of risk is done through the identification of the spectrum of economic and other risks that are present in the life cycle of the company. Political risk is not easily measured because of the specific nature. In various economic – political system ruled by different rules, because the theory has developed several methods of measuring the political risk. The existence of political risk in a given market is the most common reason for withdrawal of large, multinational companies from investing in the same. The paper presented and analysed some of the basic types of political risks and their impact on the major players in the world market.

description: In this paper, we discuss how gauging one-form symmetries in Chern-Simons theories is implemented in an A-twisted topological open string theory. For example, the contribution from a fixed H/Z bundle on a three-manifold M, arising in a BZ gauging of H Chern-Simons, for Z a finite subgroup of the center of H, is described by an open string worldsheet theory whose bulk is a sigma model with target a Z-gerbe (a bundle of one-form symmetries) over T^* M, of characteristic class determined by the H/Z bundle. We give a worldsheet picture of the decomposition of one-form-symmetry-gauged Chern-Simons in three dimensinos, and we describe how a target-space constraint on bundles arising in the gauged Chern-Simons theory has a natural worldsheet realization. Our proposal provides examples of the expected correspondence between worldsheet global higher-form symmetries, and target-space gauged higher-form symmetries.

description: Spin dependent transport in a ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet single electron transistor is studied theoretically with spin accumulation, spin relaxation, gap suppression, and charging effects taken into account. A strong dependence of the gap on the magnetic state of the outer electrodes is found, which gives rise to a negative magneto-resistance of up to 100 %. We predict that fluctuations of the spin accumulation due to tunneling of quasi-particles can play such an important role as to cause the island to fluctuate between the superconducting

description: Abell 754 is a rich galaxy cluster at $z=0.0543$ and is considered the prototype of a major cluster merger. Like many dynamically unrelaxed systems, it hosts diffuse radio emission on Mpc-scales. Extended synchrotron sources in the intra-cluster medium (ICM) are commonly interpreted as evidence that a fraction of the gravitational energy released during cluster mergers is dissipated into nonthermal components. Here, we use new MeerKAT UHF- and L-band observations to study nonthermal phenomena in Abell 754. These data are complemented with archival XMM-Newton observations to investigate the resolved spectral properties of both the radio and X-ray cluster emission.For the first time, we employed the pipeline originally developed to calibrate LOFAR data to MeerKAT observations. This allowed us to perform a direction-dependent calibration and obtain highly sensitive radio images in UHF- and L-bands which capture the extended emission with unprecedented detail. By using a large XMM-Newton mosaic, we produced thermodynamic maps of the ICM. Our analysis reveals that the radio halo in the cluster center is bounded by the well-known shock in the eastern direction. Furthermore, in the southwest periphery, we discover an extended radio source that we classify as a radio relic which is possibly tracing a shock driven by the squeezed gas compressed by the merger, outflowing in perpendicular directions. The low-luminosity of this relic appears compatible with direct acceleration of thermal pool electrons. We interpret the observed radio and X-ray features in the context of a major cluster merger with a nonzero impact parameter. Abell 754 is a remarkable galaxy cluster showcasing exceptional features associated with the ongoing merger event. The high quality of the new MeerKAT data motivates further work on this system.

description: Collective mass tensors derived in the cranking approximation to the adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (ATDHFB) method are employed in a study of induced fission dynamics. Together with a collective potential determined in deformation-constrained self-consistent mean-field calculations based on nuclear energy density functionals, the mass tensors specify the collective Hamiltonian that governs the time evolution of the nuclear wave function from an initial state at equilibrium deformation, up to scission and the formation of fission fragments. In an illustrative calculation of low-energy induced fission of $^{228}$Th, $^{230}$Th, $^{234}$U, and $^{240}$Pu, we compare the non-perturbative and perturbative cranking ATDHFB mass tensors in the plane of axially-symmetric quadrupole and octupole deformations, as well as the resulting charge yields.

description: We analyze the solution of the coined quantum walk on a line. First, we derive the full solution, for arbitrary unitary transformations, by using a new approach based on the four "walk fields" which we show determine the dynamics. The particular way of deriving the solution allows a rigorous derivation of a long wavelength approximation. This long wavelength approximation is useful as it provides an approximate analytical expression that captures the basics of the quantum walk and allows us to gain insight into the physics of the process.

description: Nonlinear, i.e., multi-photon microscopy is a powerful technique for imaging deep into biological tissues. Its penetration depth can be increased further using adaptive optics. In this work, we present a fast, feedback-based adaptive-optics algorithm, termed C-DASH, for multi-photon imaging through multiply-scattering media. C-DASH utilises complex-valued light shaping (i.e., joint shaping of amplitude and phase), which offers several advantages over phase-only techniques: it converges faster, it delivers higher image quality enhancement, it shows a robust performance largely insensitive to the axial position of the correction plane, and it has a higher ability to cope with, on the one hand, scattering media that vary over time and, on the other hand, scattering media that are partially absorbing. Furthermore, our method is practically self-aligning. We also present a simple way to implement C-DASH using a single reflection off a phase-only spatial light modulator. We provide a thorough characterisation of our method, presenting results of numerical simulations as well as two-photon excited fluorescence imaging experiments.

description: The time evolution of a dilute atomic boson-fermion mixture is studied at zero temperature, when the external magnetic field is brought close to a interspecies Feshbach resonance. On short time scales we find that before a collapse or phase separation of the mixture can occur, oscillations between fermionic atoms and heteronuclear molecules dominate the dynamics. Applying the model presented here to a trapped mixture of $^{40}$K-$^{87}$Rb atoms, we find that the predicted oscillations can be revealed in degenerate mixtures of these atoms.
