description: The problem of gravity propagation has been subject of discussion for quite a long time: Newton, Laplace and, in relatively more modern times, Eddington pointed out that, if gravity propagated with finite velocity, planets motion around the sun would become unstable due to a torque originating from time lag of the gravitational interactions. Such an odd behavior can be found also in electromagnetism, when one computes the propagation of the electric fields generated by a set of uniformly moving charges. As a matter of fact the Liénard-Weichert retarded potential leads to a formula indistinguishable from the one obtained assuming that the electric field propagates with infinite velocity. Feyman explanation for this apparent paradox was based on the fact that uniform motions last indefinitely. To verify such an explanation, we performed an experiment to measure the time/space evolution of the electric field generated by an uniformely moving electron beam. The results we obtain on such a finite lifetime kinematical state seem compatible with an electric field rigidly carried by the beam itself.

description: Advances in passive acoustic monitoring and machine learning have led to the procurement of vast datasets for computational bioacoustic research. Nevertheless, data scarcity is still an issue for rare and underrepresented species. This study investigates how meta-information can improve zero-shot audio classification, utilising bird species as an example case study due to the availability of rich and diverse meta-data. We investigate three different sources of metadata: textual bird sound descriptions encoded via (S)BERT, functional traits (AVONET), and bird life-history (BLH) characteristics. As audio features, we extract audio spectrogram transformer (AST) embeddings and project them to the dimension of the auxiliary information by adopting a single linear layer. Then, we employ the dot product as compatibility function and a standard zero-shot learning ranking hinge loss to determine the correct class. The best results are achieved by concatenating the AVONET and BLH features attaining a mean unweighted F1-score of .233 over five different test sets with 8 to 10 classes.

description: Let $H$ be a simple undirected graph. The family of all matchings of $H$ forms a simplicial complex called the matching complex of $H$. Here , we give a classification of all graphs with a Gorenstein matching complex. Also we study when the matching complex of $H$ is Cohen-Macaulay and, in certain classes of graphs, we fully characterize those graphs which have a Cohen-Macaulay matching complex. In particular, we characterize when the matching complex of a graph with girth at least 5 or a complete graph is Cohen-Macaulay.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Value for Money is the client’s assessment of the project delivered and/or services rendered by the various project stakeholders as it met the pre-determined objectives. The study focused on ways by which the required value for money can be achieved in a project, these includes detailed risk analysis and appropriate risk allocation, drive for faster project completion, curtailment in project cost escalation, encouragement of innovation in project development, preparation of a detailed specification etc. Highlighted among management tools that can aid the achievement of the desired VFM includes Life Cycle Cost analysis, Value Management, Building Information Modelling, and Lean Construction methods. The study argued for the ex-ante VFM assessment to be carried out at the design stage of a project; the importance of an ex-post VFM assessment after project completion was stressed, this is due to the fact that it helps to determine whether or not value for money has actually been delivered. Meanwhile, the barriers to achieving value for money on investment for the client were discussed with recommendations for improving VFM practices. The findings of this research provide necessary information and instruments to assist the various project stakeholders to make informed and supportable decisions.

description: We show that symmetric planar waveguides made of a film composed of a type II hyperbolic metamaterial, where the optical axis (OA) lays parallel to the waveguide interfaces, result in a series of topological transitions in the dispersion diagram as the film electrical thickness increases. The transitions are mediated by elliptical mode branches, which, as soon as they grow from cutoff, coalesce along the OA with anomalously ordered hyperbolic mode branches, resulting in a saddle point. When the electrical thickness of the film increases further, the merged branch starts a transition to hyperbolic normally ordered modes with propagation direction orthogonal to the OA. In this process, the saddle point is transformed into a branch point where a new branch of Ghost waves appears and slow light is observed for a broad range of thicknesses.

description: In this paper, we study an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-aided communication system with single-antenna transmitter and receiver, under imperfect channel state information (CSI). More specifically, we deal with the robust selection of binary (on/off) states of the IRS elements in order to maximize the worst-case energy efficiency (EE), given a bounded CSI uncertainty, while satisfying a minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In addition, we consider not only continuous but also discrete IRS phase shifts. First, we derive closed-form expressions of the worst-case SNRs, and then formulate the robust (discrete) optimization problems for each case. In the case of continuous phase shifts, we design a dynamic programming (DP) algorithm that is theoretically guaranteed to achieve the global maximum with polynomial complexity $O(L\,{\log L})$, where $L$ is the number of IRS elements. In the case of discrete phase shifts, we develop a convex-relaxation-based method (CRBM) to obtain a feasible (sub-optimal) solution in polynomial time $O(L^{3.5})$, with a posteriori performance guarantee. Furthermore, numerical simulations provide useful insights and confirm the theoretical results. In particular, the proposed algorithms are several orders of magnitude faster than the exhaustive search when $L$ is large, thus being highly scalable and suitable for practical applications. Moreover, both algorithms outperform a baseline scheme, namely, the activation of all IRS elements.

description: Di fronte alla costante crescita del costo dell'energia elettrica è ormai una pratica indispensabile la scelta di tecniche e sistemi a basso consumo per il miglioramento dell'efficienza energetica dei centri di calcolo. In questi centri ad alto fabbisogno energetico il raffreddamento delle apparecchiature informatiche rappresenta mediamente il 30% del consumo complessivo di energia elettrica, pertanto assume un'importanza strategica comprendere quali siano le condizioni più favorevoli per minimizzarne i costi di esercizio. Gli studi condotti sul tema hanno evidenziato i maggiori rendimenti delle macchine frigorifere a fronte dell'aumento delle temperature di esercizio all'interno delle sale calcolo, tantoché gli stessi produttori di apparecchiature informatiche propongono macchine in grado di operare a temperature sempre più alte e intervalli di umidità relativa sempre più ampi. Nel presente documento si descrive lo studio effettuato per il centro di calcolo Tier 1, presso il CNAF dell'INFN a Bologna, finalizzato alla valutazione dell'impatto che deriva dall'aumento delle temperature di esercizio nella sala calcolo, sia in termini di risparmio energetico ed economico sia in termini di ridondanza e resilienza dell'impianto. Lo studio si conclude con la stima del risparmio di energia elettrica consumata per il raffreddamento a fronte dell'innalzamento della temperatura di setpoint dell'acqua refrigerata da 8.5 °C a 14 °C, risparmio che si calcola del 14% circa.

Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 330102
subject: Architectural design

description: BACKGROUND: 'Memory Gardens' by Leon van Schaik is a creative work (textual) that published in 'Intentional Neighbouring,' as part of the exhibition project 'Brave Street' presented by Kerli Valk and Brad Mitchell (Nüüd Studio), Simon Drysdale and Emily Murray (eight50eight).
CONTRIBUTION: Van Schaik's text reflects on how our memory, and its inflections, create narratives in the way we view and experiences spaces and dwellings. Drawing references from other writers, architects and art historians, he brings them to the present and immediate experience of him building a garden in his home based on a historic garden that he may or may not have remembered correctly. In this poetic essay, van Schaik captures a sense of how images and impressions are borne out of our past experiences, real and imagined. This text demonstrates van Schaik's ongoing investigations into the poetics of memory and images specifically in the way we understand spaces and build places. It also demonstrates his writing practice within the expanded field of architectural criticism and reflective practice.
SIGNIFICANCE: Van Schaik's text was included in 'Intentional Neighbouring,' an incidental catalogue for the exhibition project 'Brave Street,' which investigated opportunities for positive interventions, contributions and transformations on a typical, speculative street, presented as scaled architectural maquettes and essays. Van Schaik was invited to contribute an essay based on his expertise in writing about the poetics of architectural space. The publication was presented alongside the exhibition to the public at Testing Grounds (Southbank, Melbourne) as part of the 2019 Melbourne Design Week - Australia's leading international design event linking creative practices with the community and industry - presented by Creative Victoria and the National Gallery of Victoria.

description: We use the finite projected entangled pair state (PEPS) method to investigate the global phase diagram of the spin-1/2 square-lattice $J_1$-$J_2$-$J_3$ antiferromagnetic (AFM) Heisenberg model. The ground state phase diagram is established with a rich variety of phases: AFM, gapless quantum spin liquid, valence-bond solid (VBS), stripe, and incommensurate spiral phases. The nature of the VBS region is revealed, containing a plaquette VBS and a mixed columnar-plaquette VBS, with the emergence of short-range incommensurate spin correlations in some region. The long-range incommensurate magnetic phase is also explicitly characterized as a planar spiral with incommensurate spatial periodicities. Most interestingly, there exists several multicritical points connecting different phases. These findings elucidate the true nature of the long-standing square-lattice $J_1$-$J_2$-$J_3$ antiferromagnet at zero-temperature. Our results also pave the way to accurately simulate complex two-dimensional quantum systems that may host nonuniform features by means of finite PEPS.

description: Axions and axion-like particles (ALPs) are one of the most widely discussed extensions of the Standard Model when it comes to the strong CP problem and dark matter candidates. Current experiments are focused on the indirect searches of invisible pseudoscalars in a wide parameter range. In this paper we investigate limits on ALP mass, and its couplings to photons and leptons from 3-photon annihilation at $e^+e^-$ colliders. We provide detailed calculations and apply them to the particular kinematics of the Belle II experiment, covering the ALP mass range from few hundred MeV to around 10 GeV. Our results, which improve upon previous analyses by also including the ALP coupling to electrons, show that such future analyses will allow to significantly extend the ALP search range and impose much more stringent restrictions on their couplings.

subject: Creative writing (incl. scriptwriting)

description: BACKGROUND: What new arisings are possible within a performed nonfiction at the intersection between live art and the lecture? Noelle Janaczewska (2013) has claimed coinage of the descriptor "the performance essay" as her own and expanded upon its "protean and accommodating possibilities". Mary Cappello (2017) calls for new forms of colloquy that "move with others and across affiliations in the collective formation of ideas". This creative work explores new formal possibilities for participatory nonfiction. CONTRIBUTION: vigil/wake is a double bill on themes of grief and loss in which a performance lecture (vigil) meets a work of live art in the form of an installation (wake). Participants are conducted through encounters with the performer, with each other, and within themselves to perform and to collectively "essay" a work of secular ritual. This research project demonstrates how arts-based participatory practices of material thinking may construct new forms of performative nonfiction that promote community meaning-making and connection, especially around difficult issues. SIGNIFICANCE: vigil/wake was commissioned by The City of Melbourne as a contribution to a season of new work entitled Mere Mortals, staged at Arts House. Arts House is one of Melbourne's premier sites of innovative performance practice, theatre and live art. The work was given five performances as part of a program that saw it placed it alongside works by major artists including Ridiculusmus, French and Mottershead, Triage Live Art Collective, Punctum and Lara Thoms. vigil/wake garnered positive online reviews and observations that such "w/rites of passage" (Murray, 2017) may indeed enhance wellbeing and promote resilience in times of loss. The work will have an ongoing life as part of RMIT's partnership with the Melbourne Writers' Festival in 2019 before travelling to the Public Health and Palliative Care International Conference in NSW later in the year.

Search for flavour-changing neutral current interactions of the top quark and the Higgs boson in events with a pair of τ -leptons in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
Creators: name: ATLAS Collaboration
Publisher: name: Springer Berlin Heidelberg
Year: 2023

description: A search for flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) tqH interactions involving a top quark, another up-type quark (q = u, c), and a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson decaying into a τ -lepton pair (H → τ +τ −) is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at √ s = 13 TeV that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Two processes are considered: single top quark FCNC production in association with a Higgs boson (pp → tH), and top quark pair production in which one of top quarks decays into W b and the other decays into qH through the FCNC interactions. The search selects events with two hadronically decaying τ -lepton candidates (τhad) or at least one τhad with an additional lepton (e, µ), as well as multiple jets. Event kinematics is used to separate signal from the background through a multivariate discriminant. A slight excess of data is observed with a significance of 2.3σ above the expected SM background, and 95% CL upper limits on the t → qH branching ratios are derived. The observed (expected) 95% CL upper limits set on the t → cH and t → uH branching ratios are 9.4 × 10−4 (4.8 +2.2 −1.4 × 10−4 ) and 6.9 × 10−4 (3.5 +1.5 −1.0 × 10−4 ), respectively. The corresponding combined observed (expected) upper limits on the dimension-6 operator Wilson coefficients in the effective tqH couplings are Ccφ < 1.35 (0.97) and Cuφ < 1.16 (0.82).

We consider effects of new physics parametrized by the top-quark chromomagnetic dipole operator. We calculate new physics contributions to the total cross section at approximate NNLO, with second-order soft-gluon corrections added to the complete NLO result, including uncertainties from scale dependence and from parton distributions. We also calculate new physics contributions at approximate NNLO for differential distributions in top-quark transverse momentum.

description: The construction of quantum circuits to simulate Hamiltonian evolution is central to many quantum algorithms. State-of-the-art circuits are based on oracles whose implementation is often omitted, and the complexity of the algorithm is estimated by counting oracle queries. However, in practical applications, an oracle implementation contributes a large constant factor to the overall complexity of the algorithm. The key finding of this work is the efficient procedure for representation of a tridiagonal matrix in the Pauli basis, which allows one to construct a Hamiltonian evolution circuit without the use of oracles. The procedure represents a general tridiagonal matrix $2^n \times 2^n$ by systematically determining all Pauli strings present in the decomposition, dividing them into commuting subsets. The efficiency is in the number of commuting subsets $O(n)$. The method is demonstrated using the one-dimensional wave equation, verifying numerically that the gate complexity as function of the number of qubits is lower than the oracle based approach for $n < 15$ and requires half the number of qubits. This method is applicable to other Hamiltonians based on the tridiagonal matrices.

Fragile Y

Subjects: classificationCode: 360201
subject: Creative writing (incl. scriptwriting)

description: Research background: In 'Writing on the Precipice' critic and speculative fiction author James Bradley asks what we can do in the face of the sixth mass extinction. He agrees with international writer and geographer Samuel Miller-McDonald: 'If you're a writer, then you have to write about this.' In line with Tim Parks' criterion that great novels analyse the world in a way it is not used to being analysed, the research question for this story was: what is 'normal'? How do we recognise it in the world and people around us, and how can writing (in form as well as content) challenge - rather than reinforce - normative notions? Research contribution: 'Fragile Y' is a 5,000 word speculative fiction short story, specifically 'climate fiction' - an emerging genre that responds to our current climate catastrophe. It explores notions of inheritance - environmental, and genetic - through the tale of a mother's growing realisation that her daughter is not, and never will be, 'normal'. Fiction focused on the inner lives of a limited cross-section of people (which China Miéville has called the 'realist litfic' genre) may no longer be the best literary form to reflect, or reflect on, our brave new outer world - if, indeed, it ever was. Speculative fiction, on the other hand, has a long history of 'cognitive estrangement' - as science-fiction critic Darko Suvin famously characterises the way the genre enables readers to re/view their realities. Research significance: The significance of 'Fragile Y' is in it uses of climate research to cross speculative and realist genres, offering a creative response to catastrophic climate change, and an attempt to express cultural and neurological diversification. This was recognised in its acceptance for publication by one of Australia's longest-running and most respected literary journals (Going Down Swinging, founded in 1979) and, according to the editor, its placement as the final piece in print edition #39.

description: Erratic supply of electricity to residential buildings has led many occupants/owners to source for alternative sources to complement the epileptic supply from the National Grid. The sun produces energy expense-free, which is being untapped in this part of the country and thus the energy of the sun is being wasted. This energy can easily be converted to electric power for use in both in residential areas and industrial sectors through solar photovoltaic (PV) system. This paper assessed the level of awareness, adoption and barriers as related to solar PV system in Akure by assessing one hundred and fifty (150) residential buildings randomly with a structured questionnaire administered to the occupants/owners. The findings revealed that; a large percentage of the residential buildings make use of diesel/petrol generating set as an alternative to the National grid, that the level of awareness of solar PV is significantly low, the willingness to adopt is high but it’s hindered by cost implication of the system. The study’s findings contribute to the growing literature in the adoption of renewable energy for electricity generation, highlighted the major barriers hindering this for effective solutions to be proffer. It also provides a prospective market for those interested in the solar energy market.

description: We give an exposition of the hidden subgroup problem for dihedral groups from the point of view of the standard hidden subgroup quantum algorithm for finite groups. In particular, we recall the obstructions for strong Fourier sampling to succeed, but at the same time, show how the standard algorithm can be modified to establish polynomial quantum query complexity. Finally, we explain a new connection between the dihedral coset problem and cloning of quantum states.

description: Cosmic rays causes concern about the lifetime and stability of materials exposed to these radiations and in particular about the life of humans involved in long term missions. Radiations interacting inside a bulk material generate along its track ionization, displacement of atoms through collisions, energy deposition, etc. Calculations to carefully evaluate these effects at low and high energies are important tools to be used in many applications. Indeed, materials and devices exposed to high intensity radiation beams present inside accelerator buildings may experience similar and even higher irradiation phenomena. We will present and discuss here some calculations of the dose absorbed by reference materials exposed to cosmic radiations. The same tools can be used to evaluate many other phenomena associated to the exposition of intense charged and neutral beams.

description: Plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) has shown illustrious progress and resulted in an impressive demonstration of tens of GeV particle acceleration in meter-long single structures. To reach even higher energies in the 1 TeV to 10 TeV range, a promising scheme is channeling acceleration in solid-density plasmas within crystals or nanostructures.
 The E336 experiment studies the beam-nanotarget interaction with the highly compressed electron bunches available at the FACET-II accelerator. These studies furthermore involve an in-depth research on dynamics of beam-plasma instabilities in ultra-dense plasma, its development and suppression in structured media like carbon nanotubes and crystals, and its potential use to transversely modulate the electron bunch.

description: The local density of states (LDOS) of electromagnetic field drives many basic processes associated to light-matter interaction such as the thermal emission of object, the spontaneous emission of quantum systems or the fluctuation-induced electromagnetic forces on molecules. Here, we study the LDOS in the close vicinity of magneto-optical metamaterials under the action of an external magnetic field and demonstrate that it can be efficiently changed in a narrow or a broad spectral range simply by changing the spatial orientation or the magnitude of this field. This result paves the way for an active control of the photonic density of states at deep-subwavelength scale.
Measurement of the tt¯ production cross-section in pp collisions at √s = 5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detector
Creators: name: ATLAS Collaboration
Publisher: name: Springer Berlin Heidelberg
Year: 2024

description: The inclusive top-quark pair (tt¯) production cross-section σtt¯ is measured in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy √ s = 5.02 TeV, using 257 pb−1 of data collected in 2017 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The tt¯ cross-section is measured in both the dilepton and single-lepton final states of the tt¯ system and then combined. The combination of the two measurements yields σtt¯ = 67.5 ± 0.9 (stat.) ± 2.3 (syst.) ± 1.1 (lumi.) ± 0.2 (beam) pb, where the four uncertainties reflect the limited size of the data sample, experimental and theoretical systematic effects, and imperfect knowledge of both the integrated luminosity and the LHC beam energy, giving a total uncertainty of 3.9%. The result is in agreement with theoretical quantum chromodynamic calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant, including the resummation of next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic soft-gluon terms, and constrains the parton distribution functions of the proton at large Bjorken-x.

description: This report deals with the design of the high field rapidly-cycling super-conducting dipoles needed for SIS300 synchrotron of the FAIR facility at GSI. The main results of the R&D activities, developed for supporting the design choices, are presented elsewhere. The characteristics of the dipole come from the requirement of the SIS300. The present lattice design includes 48 long dipoles with magnetic length 7.757 m and 12 short dipoles with magnetic length 3.879 m. The coils have two main features: they are curved (the corresponding sagitta is 112.8 mm for long dipoles), and they are fast ramped (for a superconducting magnet). Both these characteristics demanded a challenging R&D, aimed at the development of the required low loss conductor, a robust design with respect to fatigue issues and a suitable winding technology. The Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) performed this R&D. A project, called DISCORAP ('Dipoli SuperCOnduttori RApidamente Pulsati')', was developed in accordance with a specific INFN-FAIR Memorandum of Understanding signed by both institutions in December 2006. As output of this project a complete cold mass model of the short dipole was built and preliminary tested. The cold mass was integrated into a horizontal cryostat and presently activities are ongoing for testing the magnet at GSI cryogenic facilities.
Double-bracket quantum algorithms for diagonalization

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: This work proposes double-bracket iterations as a framework for obtaining diagonalizing quantum circuits. Their implementation on a quantum computer consists of interlacing evolutions generated by the input Hamiltonian with diagonal evolutions which can be chosen variationally. No qubit overheads or controlled-unitary operations are needed but the method is recursive which makes the circuit depth grow exponentially with the number of recursion steps. To make near-term implementations viable, the proposal includes optimization of diagonal evolution generators and of recursion step durations. Indeed, thanks to this numerical examples show that the expressive power of double-bracket iterations suffices to approximate eigenstates of relevant quantum models with few recursion steps. Compared to brute-force optimization of unstructured circuits double-bracket iterations do not suffer from the same trainability limitations. Moreover, with an implementation cost lower than required for quantum phase estimation they are more suitable for near-term quantum computing experiments. More broadly, this work opens a pathway for constructing purposeful quantum algorithms based on so-called double-bracket flows also for tasks different from diagonalization and thus enlarges the quantum computing toolkit geared towards practical physics problems.
