description: We present the first "clipped" cosmic shear measurement using data from the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS-450). "Clipping" transformations suppress the signal from the highest density, non-linear regions of cosmological fields. We demonstrate that these transformations improve constraints on $S_8=σ_8(Ω_{\rm{m}}/0.3)^{0.5}$ when used in combination with conventional two-point statistics. For the KiDS-450 data, we find that the combined measurements improve the constraints on $S_8$ by 17%, compared to shear correlation functions alone. We determine the expectation value of the clipped shear correlation function using a suite of numerical simulations, and develop methodology to mitigate the impact of masking and shot noise. Future improvements in numerical simulations and mass reconstruction methodology will permit the precise calibration of clipped cosmic shear statistics such that clipping can become a standard tool in weak lensing analyses.

description: We report on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the host galaxy of GRB 971214, about four months after the burst. The redshift of the proposed host galaxy at z=3.418, combined with optical and radio observations of the burst afterglow, implies the extremely large isotropic energy release from the burst in gamma-rays of approximately 3x10^53 ergs, some two orders of magnitude higher than the previously commonly assumed numbers. The positional offset between the optical transient observed at the Keck telescope and the centroid of the proposed host galaxy in the HST image is 0.14 -+0.07 arcsec. We find no evidence in our deep HST image for a chance foreground galaxy superposed along the line of sight to the proposed host at z=3.418. The morphology and photometric properties of this galaxy, such as the total flux, morphology, radial surface profile and scale length, are typical as compared to other, spectroscopically confirmed z>3 galaxies.

The 2-10 keV flux (1.26 x 10^{-12} erg/cm^2/s) was about 20 times fainter than its historical average value, and remained steady along the whole observation (~2.3 days). The observed flat spectrum (Γ~ 0.8) and intense iron line (EW ~600 eV) are best explained assuming that the active nucleus has switched off, leaving only a residual reflection component visible.

Energy-efficient optimal control for real-time computing systems
Creators: name: Thammawichai, Mason
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Moving toward ubiquitous Cyber-Physical Systems - where computation, control and communication units are mutually interacting - this thesis aims to provide fundamental frameworks to address the problems arising from such a system, namely the real-time multiprocessor scheduling problem (RTMSP) and the multi-UAV topology control problem (MUTCP). The RTMSP is concerned with how tasks can be scheduled on available computing resources such that no task misses a deadline. An optimization-based control method was used to solve the problem. Though it is quite natural to formulate the task assignment problem as a mixed-integer nonlinear program, the computation cost is high. By reformulating the scheduling problem as a problem of first determining a percentage of task execution time and then finding the task execution order, the computation complexity can be reduced. Simulation results illustrate that our methods are both feasibility optimal and energy optimal. The framework is then extended to solve a scheduling problem with uncertainty in task execution times by adopting a feedback approach. The MUTCP is concerned with how a communication network topology can be determined such that the energy cost is minimized. An optimal control framework to construct a data aggregation network is proposed to optimally trade-off between communication and computation energy. The benefit of our network topology model is that it is a self-organized multi-hop hierarchical clustering network, which provides better performance in term of energy consumption, reliability and network scalability. In addition, our framework can be applied to both homogeneous and heterogeneous mobile sensor networks due to the generalization of the network model. Two multi-UAV information gathering applications, i.e. target tracking and area mapping, were chosen to test the proposed algorithm. Based on simulation results, our method can save up to 40% energy for a target tracking and 60% for an area mapping compared to the baseline approach.

description: Deep neural networks are susceptible to \emph{adversarial} attacks. In computer vision, well-crafted perturbations to images can cause neural networks to make mistakes such as confusing a cat with a computer. Previous adversarial attacks have been designed to degrade performance of models or cause machine learning models to produce specific outputs chosen ahead of time by the attacker. We introduce attacks that instead {\em reprogram} the target model to perform a task chosen by the attacker---without the attacker needing to specify or compute the desired output for each test-time input. This attack finds a single adversarial perturbation, that can be added to all test-time inputs to a machine learning model in order to cause the model to perform a task chosen by the adversary---even if the model was not trained to do this task. These perturbations can thus be considered a program for the new task. We demonstrate adversarial reprogramming on six ImageNet classification models, repurposing these models to perform a counting task, as well as classification tasks: classification of MNIST and CIFAR-10 examples presented as inputs to the ImageNet model.

description: The study of anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation is progressing at a phenomenal rate, both experimentally and theoretically. These anisotropies can teach us an enormous amount about the way that fluctuations were generated and the way they subsequently evolved into the clustered galaxies which are observed today. In particular, on sub-degree scales the rich structure in the anisotropy spectrum is the consequence of gravity-driven acoustic oscillations occurring before the matter in the universe became neutral. The frozen-in phases of these sound waves imprint a dependence on many cosmological parameters, that we may be on the verge of extracting.

Characterising the relationship between the herpes simplex virus tegument proteins VP22 and vhs
Creators: name: Ebert, Katja
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: Structural protein VP22 is a major component of the virus tegument of herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1). VP22 is not essential for the structure of the virus but has been associated with several functions, including the regulation of the virion host shut off (vhs) endoribonuclease activity and the promotion of optimal late protein synthesis. Many of its activities are believed to function through its interaction with a second tegument protein, VP16, which is known to help downregulate vhs activity during infection. It has been proposed that when the VP22-encoding gene is deleted, HSV-1 acquires spontaneous secondary mutations within vhs rendering it inactive. Here we show that a wild-type vhs is not inherently lethal for virus replication in the absence of VP22, as we generated a replication-competent Δ22 virus by homologous recombination which maintains a wild-type vhs gene and has no other gross mutations. By contrast, replication-competent Δ22 viruses recovered from a bacterial artificial chromosome contain multiple amino acid changes within a conserved region of vhs. Hence, we conclude that the mode of virus rescue influences the acquisition of secondary mutations. Nonetheless, we demonstrate that wild-type vhs is poorly expressed in the absence of VP22 in infection, a defect that is attributed to poor translation rather transcription. While VP22 has been shown to bind to vhs only in the presence of VP16, it is shown here that this VP22-VP16 complex is neither sufficient nor required for the efficient translation of vhs. Moreover, using primary human fibroblasts as a physiologically relevant model system, VP22 is shown to enhance the translation of additional virus proteins, revealing a general role in infected cell translation. Finally, and unlike the situation in permissive Vero cells, the Δ22 virus fails to form plaque in primary human fibroblasts, indicating that VP22 is essential for virus replication in this highly relevant cell type.
Molecular insights into host gene regulation by Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen EBNA3C
Creators: name: Kalchschmidt, Jens Sebastian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Most adults are infected by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which establishes persistent infection in B cells. EBV nuclear antigen 3C (EBNA3C) is a latent viral protein that co-regulates many cellular genes, but little is known about the mechanisms by which EBNA3C acts as repressor or activator of gene expression. This study aimed to further explore molecular mechanisms that underlie EBNA3C host gene regulation. For this, four EBNA3C target genes – three repressed (COBLL1, ADAM28 and ADAMDEC1) and one induced (AICDA) – were selected based on a previous exon microarray on EBV-recombinant lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) carrying conditional EBNA3C (3CHT). Using EBV recombinants to infect primary B cells, EBNA3C was shown to be the main regulator of all four genes. Surprisingly, regulation by EBNA3C over orders of magnitude followed highly exponential activation or repression profiles and required ~30 days after infection. This could be reproduced efficiently in the 3CHT LCLs by activating EBNA3C, proving the utility of these cells to replicate EBNA3C gene regulation. Analysis of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled to deep-sequencing identified EBNA3C binding to distal regulatory elements at all four genes and detailed ChIP analysis of histone modifications and cellular factors was performed. Unexpectedly, recruitment and/or stabilisation of the DNA-sequence binding factor RBPJ was observed at the EBNA3C binding sites only when EBNA3C was functional. This challenges existing models of how RBPJ functions in EBV-regulated gene expression. EBNA3C failed to regulate all four genes when it is unable to bind to RBPJ. Recruitment of a polycomb protein, generally linked to gene repression, was observed at all four genes irrespective of whether repression or activation by EBNA3C occurred. Changes to histone modifications at these loci correlated well with gene expression and indicate a two-step mechanism for EBNA3C-mediated repression and suggest the activation is linked to a very complex pattern of chromatin looping.

Specifically, we consider the decay Lambda_b -> psi p K- , where the hidden charm pentaquark signal has been reported. We analyze the analytical properties of the amplitudes and separate kinematical and dynamical singularities. The result is an amplitude with the minimal energy dependence compatible with the S-matrix principles.

description: We suggest inclusive hadron production in ultra-peripheral proton-nucleus collisions (UPCs) $p^\uparrow A \to h AX$ as a new channel to investigate single spin asymmetries (SSAs), in particular, to test the assumed dominance of the contribution from twist-three fragmentation functions. The UPC cross sections are obtained by considering the photoproduction limit of semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS). In particular, we find simple formulas for the polarized UPC cross sections in the collinear twist-three framework. We then numerically calculate the fragmentation contribution to SSA in $p^\uparrow A \to πA X$ at $\sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV and find a few percent asymmetry in the forward region.

Year: 2021

description:

This article presents an inspection into the vast arena occupied by terms and signs in Japanese language that designate the word ‘body’. The study is centred around etymons and semantic descriptions offered in selected monolingual lexical sources, thereby revealing slight divergencies that surface when confronting these entries in order to underscore the ambiguity and hybridity that characterise corporeality itself. In addition, part of this study is dedicated to Ichikawa Hiroshi’s semantic analysis of the Japanese word mi (body), to Uno Kuniichi’s discourse on the shintai (body) and to insights on corporeality offered by Kan Takayuki. The purpose of illustrating this diversified lexical treasure that surrounds, sustains and recreates bodies is to draw attention to the central position occupied by corporeality itself in Japanese culture, where the body/bodies emerge as a catalyst of cultural production.

The role of the coagulation cascade in liver injury
Creators: name: Petts, Gemma Susan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Liver disease affects approximately 600,000 people in England and Wales and is the third biggest cause of premature death. Acute and chronic liver injury occur due to a number of aetiologies and affect the function of the liver in the short and long term through pathological inflammation and fibrosis. Given the variety of aetiologies and growing burden of disease in the population, there is a need to find universal therapies that alter the progression of liver injury and fibrosis beyond the initiating insult. This work focuses on investigating the role of the coagulation cascade, specifically Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI), in liver injury and it’s use as a potential therapeutic target for altering the progression of acute and chronic liver injury. Using two transgenic strains of mice, expressing TFPI in a cell specific manner I have shown that TFPI decreases the extent and progression of liver injury in models of acute liver injury but does not modify the development of liver fibrosis in a model of chronic liver injury. In the models of acute liver injury there was decreased liver injury associated with decreased fibrin deposition, decreased hepatic stellate cell activation, decreased total liver macrophage content and decreased PAR2 expression. The pattern of changes suggests that TFPI acts early in the injury process, limiting total hepatocyte injury and resulting in a decrease in hepatic stellate cell activation and macrophage recruitment, rather than the other way round. Further work should focus on defining the inflammatory cytokine profile of the liver of these transgenic mice in acute liver injury with the aim of describing the biological mechanism for the action of TFPI in acute liver injury and taking forward the trial of TFPI administration to control mice in a manner that could be carried forward to human studies.

Isotropy, homogeneity and dipole saturation

description: A distribution of points that satisfies the property of local isotropy is not necessarily homogeneous: homogeneity is implied by the condition of local isotropy together with the assumption of analyticity or regularity. Here we show that the evidence of dipole saturation in galaxies (and clusters) catalogues, together with a monotone growth of the monopole, is an evidence of isotropy but not of homogeneity. This is fully compatible with a fractal structure which has the property of local isotropy, but it is non-analytic and non-homogeneous.

Multilevel algorithms for the optimization of structured problems
Creators: name: Ho, Chinpang
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Although large scale optimization problems are very difficult to solve in general, problems that arise from practical applications often exhibit particular structure. In this thesis we study and improve algorithms that can efficiently solve structured problems. Three separate settings are considered. The first part concerns the topic of singularly perturbed Markov decision processes (MDPs). When a MDP is singularly perturbed, one can construct an aggregate model in which the solution is asymptotically optimal. We develop an algorithm that takes advantage of existing results to compute the solution of the original model. The proposed algorithm can compute the optimal solution with a reduction in complexity without any penalty in accuracy. In the second part, the class of empirical risk minimization (ERM) problems is studied. When using a first order method, the Lipschitz constant of the empirical risk plays a crucial role in the convergence analysis and stepsize strategy of these problems. We derive the probabilistic bounds for such Lipschitz constants using random matrix theory. Our results are used to derive the probabilistic complexity and develop a new stepsize strategy for first order methods. The proposed stepsize strategy, Probabilistic Upper-bound Guided stepsize strategy (PUG), has a strong theoretical guarantee on its performance compared to the standard stepsize strategy. In the third part, we extend the existing results on multilevel methods for unconstrained convex optimization. We study a special case where the hierarchy of models is created by approximating first and second order information of the exact model. This is known as Galerkin approximation, and we named the corresponding algorithm Galerkin-based Algebraic Multilevel Algorithm (GAMA). Three case studies are conducted to show how the structure of a problem could affect the convergence of GAMA.

description: In this paper, we consider the possibility that Y(4260), Y(4360), $ ψ(4415) $ or X(4660) is the ground state or the first excited state of a hybrid charmonium and examine whether $ Υ( 10860) $ is the ground state or the first excited state of a hybrid bottomonium. Under a constituent quark model, we carry out numerical calculations to obtain the spectra of both electric gluon and magnetic gluon hybrid quarkonia. We see that the ground state of a magnetic gluon hybrid charmonium and the first excited state of an electric gluon hybrid are comparable in energy to $ ψ(4415) $ and that the first excited states of an electric gluon hybrid bottomonium and the ground state of a magnetic gluon hybrid appear a few hundred MeV above the mass of $ Υ(10860 ) $. Also, we evaluate the widths of the decays of a hybrid charmonium into $D^{(*)} \bar{D}^{(*) } $ and those of a hybrid bottomonium into $ B^{(*) } \bar{B}^{(* ) } $. We show that if the exotic meson candidates are hybrid charmonia, then they are magnetic gluon ones and argue that it seems unlikely that $ Υ(10860) $ is the ground state of an electric gluon hybrid bottomonium.

description: The exchange of an axion-like particle between atomic electrons and the nucleus may induce electric dipole moments (EDMs) of atoms and molecules. This interaction is described by a parity- and time-reversal-invariance-violating potential which depends on the product of a scalar $g^s$ and a pseudoscalar $g^p$ coupling constant. We consider the interaction with the specific combination of these constants, $g_e^s g_N^p$, which gives significant contributions to the EDMs of diamagnetic atoms. In this paper, we calculate these contributions to the EDMs of $^{199}$Hg, $^{129}$Xe, $^{211}$Rn and $^{225}$Ra for a wide range of axion masses. Comparing these results with recent experimental EDM measurements, we place new constraints on $g_e^s g_N^p$. The most stringent atomic EDM limits come from $^{199}$Hg and improve on existing laboratory limits from other experiments for axion masses exceeding $10^{-2}$ eV.

description: Monte Carlo simulations of long SGR event sequences based on lognormal distributions with a range of time intervals and intensity distribution parameters have been investigated. The main conclusions are that the majority of SGRs with properties similar to SGR 1806-20 have been detected but SGRs with mean waiting times much longer than SGR 1806-20 remain to be discovered. A large decrease in the probability for detection of an SGR source results from a relatively small increase in the distribution parameters obtained for SGR 1806-20. A new breed of experiments with very long observation times are required to search for this type of source.

description: Over the past few decades, experimental tests of Bell-type inequalities have been at the forefront of understanding quantum mechanics and its implications. These strong bounds on specific measurements on a physical system originate from some of the most fundamental concepts of classical physics - in particular that properties of an object are well defined independent of measurements (realism) and only affected by local interactions (locality). The violation of these bounds unambiguously shows that the measured system does not behave classically, void of any assumption on the validity of quantum theory. It has also found applications in quantum technologies for certifying the suitability of devices for generating quantum randomness, distributing secret keys and for quantum computing. Here we report on the violation of a Bell inequality involving a massive, macroscopic mechanical system. We create light-matter entanglement between the vibrational motion of two silicon optomechanical oscillators, each comprising approx. $10^{10}$ atoms, and two optical modes. This state allows us to violate a Bell inequality by more than 4 standard deviations, directly confirming the non-classical behavior of our optomechanical system under the fair sampling assumption.

description: A wavelet analysis has been performed on 80 intense gamma-ray bursts GRBs) from the BATSE 3B catalog with durations longer than 2 seconds. The wavelet analysis applied novel features developed for edge detection in image processing and this filtering process was used to extract a fit to the irregular GRB profile from the background. A straightforward algorithm was subsequently used to identify statistically significant peaks in this profile. The areas and FWHM of 270 peaks that were characterised as isolated were found to be consistent with lognormal distributions. The distribution of time intervals between peak maxima for all 963 identified peaks in the GRBs is also presented.

A Model for Solar Coronal Mass Ejections

description: We propose a new model for the initiation of a solar coronal mass ejection (CME). The model agrees with two properties of CMEs and eruptive flares that have proved to be very difficult to explain with previous models. a) Very low-lying magnetic field lines, down to the photospheric neutral line, can open toward infinity during an eruption. b) The eruption is driven solely by magnetic free energy stored in a closed, sheared arcade; consequently, the magnetic energy of the closed state is well above that of the post-eruption open state. The key new feature of our model is that CMEs occur in multi-polar topologies, in which reconnection between a sheared arcade and neighboring flux systems triggers the eruption. In this ``magnetic breakout'' model, reconnection removes the unsheared field above the low-lying, sheared core flux near the neutral line, thereby allowing this core flux to burst open. We present numerical simulations which demonstrate that our model can account for the energy requirements for CMEs. We discuss the implication of the model for CME/flare prediction.

description: Topological nodal-line semimetals are characterized by the line-contact bulk band crossings and the topological surface states. Breaking certain protecting symmetry turns this system into a Dirac semimetal or Weyl semimetal that hosts zero-dimensional isolated nodal points. Recent advances in band theory predicted a topological nodal-line semimetal state possessing a new type of nodal line in AlB$_2$-type diborides. Here, we report an experimental realization of nodal-line fermions and associated surface states near the Fermi energy in ZrB$_2$ by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy combined with first-principles calculations. The Dirac nodal lines in ZrB$_2$ wind into two groups of nodal rings, which are linked together along the $Γ$-$K$ direction. We further observe a distinct surface state connecting to each nodal line, indicative of the nontrivial topological nature of the bulk nodal lines. Therefore, our results provide convincing experimental evidence of the nodal-line semimetal states in ZrB$_2$ both in the bulk and on the surface, suggesting ZrB$_2$ as a remarkable platform for discovering unique phenomena induced by nodal-line fermions.

Closed-loop feedback control of smart wells for production optimisation using self-potential measurements
Creators: name: Ijioma, Amadi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Closed-loop ‘reactive’ feedback control techniques used for smart well optimisation, triggered by changes in flow (such as unwanted water production) measured at the well can increase the net present value (NPV) and mitigate reservoir uncertainty, as opposed to model-based control strategies, which use models that are rarely predictive at their spatial and temporal scales required to identify optimum control actions. However, the drawback faced with closed-loop ‘reactive’ feedback control is that control actions are only taken after adverse changes of flow occur at the well. We present a modified close-loop ‘proactive’ feedback inflow control approach based on near-well, downhole measurements of self-potential (SP) and quantify the potential benefit of this approach in different well and reservoir settings during waterflooding or aquifer support production. The measurement of SP signals downhole in production wells is an encouraging technique that can be used to image waterfronts and has the potential of detecting water encroachment tens to hundreds of meters away from the well. SP signals arise in order to preserve electrical neutrality when charge separation arises due to gradients in pressure, temperature and chemical concentration of the reservoir brine phase. These gradient effects are commonly encountered during waterflooding processes and can be assessed numerically to predict the SP generated downhole in oil production wells. The numerical modelling of SP can be used as a cheap alternative to carrying out actual field experiments and serve as a proxy for predicting the SP measurements taken during waterflood production. Hence, a closed-loop ‘proactive’ feedback control strategy triggered by downhole SP measurements is developed. We use the NPV of the production wells to measure and compare the performance of the closed-loop feedback control in two different synthetic production cases; the first production case is a simple thin oil-column reservoir with production enabled by a single long horizontal well, and the second more realistic SPE Brugge field model, with production enabled by 20 production wells. The results observed are promising, and suggest that closed-loop control on the basis performance of downhole SP feedback can yield increased gains in NPV, by delaying the production of unwanted fluids compared with water-cut monitoring. These gains are also observed even if the reservoir lies outside the range predicted by reservoir models. Finally, we investigate the potential utility of SP monitoring in analogue real field applications. Overall the results are promising and suggest that SP measurements can be useful in making critical decisions in real field exploration and production applications, and other non-oil related fields such as saline intrusion monitoring in coastal aquifers.
NON-AXISYMMETRIC STRUCTURES IN THE STELLAR DISKS OF GALAXIES

description: We study the azimuthal structure of the stellar disks of 18 face-on spiral galaxies, using K-band photometry to trace the stellar surface mass density. Assuming the disks are co-planar, we characterize their deviation from axisymmetry by the fractional amplitudes, A_i and phases of the azimuthal Fourier components at radii R about the photometric galaxy center. We find that most disks exhibit a wealth of non-axisymmetric structures, specifically: (1) that about one third of them are substantially lopsided (A_1/A_0>= 0.20) at 2.5 disk exponential scale length, (2) that almost one half of them have strong two-armed spirals with an arm/interarm surface-brightness contrasts of order unity, and (3) that typical disks have some intrinsic ellipticity. We estimate that in the disk plane the characteristic ellipticity of the underlying potential is 0.045+-0.03. However, the spiral pattern couples significantly to the estimate of the intrinsic ellipticity, and our measurement may represent an upper limit on the ``true" potential triaxiality. We estimate the radial streaming motions of the disk stars, $v_R$, which are produced by these distortions. By averaging over our sample of galaxies and all azimuthal angles, we find v_R=7km/s due to lopsided distortions and 6km/s due to intrinsic ellipticity. These non-circular motions are expected to contribute about 0.15mags scatter to measurements of the Tully-Fisher relation.
