Charm and time-dependent CP violation in B decay at Belle II
Creators: name: Zlebcik, Radek
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Analyses of D and B meson yields as functions of decay time provide access to fundamental standard model parameters and probe natural non-SM scales at 10-100 TeV energies. Outstanding vertexing performances are key enablers of this program. We prove the capabilities of the Belle II detector by measuring the lifetimes of the D0 and D+ mesons. The results are the most precise to date, owing to a vertexing resolution 2x better than that of Belle and BaBar. Perspectives on the sensitivity to the main observables in charm physics and on the achievable precision in time dependent CP violation in B decays will be discussed. First results obtained on relevant channels with early data sets are shown.

description: Background: Long-baseline experiments such as the planned Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) require theoretical descriptions of the complete event in a neutrino-nucleus reaction. Since nuclear targets are used this requires a good understanding of neutrino-nucleus interactions. Purpose: Develop a consistent theory and code framework for the description of lepton-nucleus interactions that can be used to describe not only inclusive cross sections, but also the complete final state of the reaction. Methods: The Giessen-Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (GiBUU) implementation of quantum-kinetic transport theory is used, with improvements in its treatment of the nuclear ground state and of 2p2h interactions. For the latter an empirical structure function from electron scattering data is used as a basis. Results: Results for electron-induced inclusive cross sections are given as a necessary check for the overall quality of this approach. The calculated neutrino-induced inclusive double-differential cross sections show good agreement with data from neutrino- and antineutrino reactions for different neutrino flavors at MiniBooNE and T2K. Inclusive double-differential cross sections for MicroBooNE, NOvA, MINERvA and LBNF/DUNE are given. Conclusions: Based on the GiBUU model of lepton-nucleus descriptions a good theoretical description of inclusive electron-, neutrino- and antineutrino-nucleus data over a wide range of energies, different neutrino flavors and different experiments is now possible. Since no tuning is involved this theory and code should be reliable also for new energy regimes and target masses. \end{description}

How device-independent approaches change the meaning of physical theory

description: Dirac sought an interpretation of mathematical formalism in terms of physical entities and Einstein insisted that physics should describe "the real states of the real systems". While Bell inequalities put into question the reality of states, modern device-independent approaches do away with the idea of entities: physical theory may contain no physical systems. Focusing on the correlations between operationally defined inputs and outputs, device-independent methods promote a view more distant from the conventional one than Einstein's 'principle theories' were from 'constructive theories'. On the examples of indefinite causal orders and almost quantum correlations, we ask a puzzling question: if physical theory is not about systems, then what is it about? The answer given by the device-independent models is that physics is about languages. In moving away from the information-theoretic reconstructions of quantum theory, this answer marks a new conceptual development in the foundations of physics.

description: We discuss sensitivities to lepton flavor violating (and conserving) interactions at future muon colliders, especially at $μ^+μ^+$ colliders. Compared with the searches for rare decays of $μ$ and $τ$, we find that the TeV-scale future colliders have better sensitivities depending on the pattern of hierarchy in the flavor mixings. As an example, we study the case with the type-II seesaw model, where the flavor mixing parameters have direct relation to the neutrino mass matrix. At a $μ^+ μ^+$ collider, the number of events of the $μ^+ μ^+ \to μ^+ τ^+$ process can be larger than $\mathcal{O}(100)$ with the center of mass energy $\sqrt s = 2$ TeV, and with an integrated luminosity ${\cal L} = 1$ ab$^{-1}$, while satisfying bounds from rare decays of $μ$ and $τ$. We discuss impacts of the overall mass scale of neutrinos as well as CP violating phases to the number of expected events.

Collision-induced magnetic reconnection and a unified interpretation of polarization properties of GRBs and blazars

description: The jet composition and energy dissipation mechanism of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and Blazars are fundamental questions which remain not fully understood. One plausible model is to interpret the $γ$-ray emission of GRBs and optical emission of blazars as synchrotron radiation of electrons accelerated from the collision-induced magnetic dissipation regions in Poynting-flux-dominated jets. The polarization observation is an important and independent information to test this model. Based on our recent 3D relativistic MHD simulations of collision-induced magnetic dissipation of magnetically dominated blobs, here we perform calculations of the polarization properties of the emission in the dissipation region and apply the results to model the polarization observational data of GRB prompt emission and blazar optical emission. We show that the same numerical model with different input parameters can reproduce well the observational data of both GRBs and blazars, especially the $90^{\circ}$ polarization angle (PA) change in GRB 100826A and the $180^{\circ}$ PA swing in Blazar 3C279. This supports a unified model for GRB and blazar jets, suggesting that collision-induced magnetic reconnection is a common physical mechanism to power the relativistic jet emission from events with very different black hole masses.

Very forward calorimeters for future electron-positron colliders

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Detectors at future e+e- colliders need special calorimeters in the very forward region for a fast estimate and precise measurement of the luminosity, to improve the hermeticity and mask the central tracking detectors from backscattered particles. In our concept, two compact calorimeters are foreseen, LumiCal and BeamCal. Both are designed as sandwich calorimeters with very thin sensor planes to keep the Molière radius small, facilitating such the measurement of electron showers in the presence of background. Silicon sensor prototypes and dedicated FE ASICs have been developed and produced. The ASICs match the timing and dynamic range requirements. In the recent beam tests, a multi-plane compact prototype was equipped with thin sensor planes fully assembled with the new readout electronics and installed in 1 mm gaps between tungsten plates of one radiation length thickness. The latest status of the calorimeter prototype development will be presented, including selected performance results, obtained in a 5 GeV electron beam at DESY, as well as the expected performance obtained from simulation.

description: Abstract

This research provides an analysis of Islamic banking health using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach, incorporating various theories such as Signalling Theory, Sharia Enterprise Theory (SET), Stewardship Theory, and Stakeholder Theory. Internal data of Islamic banks were evaluated with a focus on variables such as Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR), Operating Expenses to Operating Income Ratio (BOPO), Net Interest Margin (NIM), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), and Non-Performing Financing (NPF). The analysis results indicate that factors like Good Corporate Governance (GCG), Islamic Corporate Social Responsibility (ICSR), Zakat, and Sharia Compliance play crucial roles in influencing Islamic banking health. Policy recommendations include revising the selection of input variables, enhancing Sharia Governance, and re-evaluating the relevance of Sharia Supervisory Board (DPS) meetings. The implications of these findings provide guidance to improve the effectiveness of Islamic banking policies by considering additional variables. The research suggests that optimizing the model by incorporating additional variables such as Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR) can enhance the accuracy of Islamic banking health evaluations through the ANN approach. Policy recommendations and research findings serve as a foundation for Islamic financial institutions to enhance their performance and operational sustainability.

description: Automatic speech recognition (ASR) provides diverse audio-to-text services for humans to communicate with machines. However, recent research reveals ASR systems are vulnerable to various malicious audio attacks. In particular, by removing the non-essential frequency components, a new spectrum reduction attack can generate adversarial audios that can be perceived by humans but cannot be correctly interpreted by ASR systems. It raises a new challenge for content moderation solutions to detect harmful content in audio and video available on social media platforms. In this paper, we propose an acoustic compensation system named ACE to counter the spectrum reduction attacks over ASR systems. Our system design is based on two observations, namely, frequency component dependencies and perturbation sensitivity. First, since the Discrete Fourier Transform computation inevitably introduces spectral leakage and aliasing effects to the audio frequency spectrum, the frequency components with similar frequencies will have a high correlation. Thus, considering the intrinsic dependencies between neighboring frequency components, it is possible to recover more of the original audio by compensating for the removed components based on the remaining ones. Second, since the removed components in the spectrum reduction attacks can be regarded as an inverse of adversarial noise, the attack success rate will decrease when the adversarial audio is replayed in an over-the-air scenario. Hence, we can model the acoustic propagation process to add over-the-air perturbations into the attacked audio. We implement a prototype of ACE and the experiments show ACE can effectively reduce up to 87.9% of ASR inference errors caused by spectrum reduction attacks. Also, by analyzing residual errors, we summarize six general types of ASR inference errors and investigate the error causes and potential mitigation solutions.

description: Many theories beyond the Standard Model predict new phenomena, such as heavy vectors or scalar, and vector-like quarks, in final states containing bottom or top quarks.

The recent 13 TeV pp results, along with the associated improvements in identification techniques, will be reported.

description: In various multiorbital systems, the emergence of the orbital fluctuations and its role on the pairing mechanism attract increasing attention. To archive deep understanding on these issues, we perform the functional-renormalization-group (fRG) study for the two-orbital Hubbard model. The vertex corrections for the electron-boson coupling ($U$-VC), which are dropped in the Migdal-Eliashberg gap equation, are obtained by solving the RG equation. We reveal that the dressed electron-boson coupling for the charge-channel, $U_{eff}^c$, becomes much larger than the bare Coulomb interaction, $U^0$, due to the $U$-VC in the presence of moderate spin fluctuations. For this reason, the attractive pairing interaction due to the charge or orbital fluctuations is enlarged by the factor $(U_{eff}^c/U^0)^2 >> 1$. In contrast, the spin fluctuation pairing interaction is suppressed by the spin-channel $U$-VC, because of the relation $U_{eff}^s << U^0$. The present study demonstrates that the orbital or charge fluctuation pairing mechanism can be realized in various multiorbital systems thanks to the $U$-VC, such as in Fe-based superconductors.

description: We discuss singlet fermion dark matter within a left-right symmetric model promoting baryon and lepton numbers as separate gauge symmetries. We add a simple Dirac fermionic dark matter singlet under $SU(2)_{L,R}$ with nonzero and equal baryon and lepton number which ensures electric charge neutrality. Such a dark matter candidate interacts with SM particles through the extra $Z_{B,\ell}$ gauge bosons. This can give rise to a dark matter particle of a few hundred GeV that couples to $\sim$ TeV scale gauge bosons to give the correct relic density. This model thus accommodates TeV scale $Z_{B,\ell}$ gauge bosons and other low scale BSM particles, which can be easily probed at LHC.

description: We develop a new method for computing the holographic retarded propagator in generic (non-)equilibrium states using the state/geometry map. We check that our method reproduces the thermal spectral function given by the Son-Starinets prescription. The time-dependence of the spectral function of a relevant scalar operator is studied in a class of non-equilibrium states. The latter are represented by AdS-Vaidya geometries with an arbitrary parameter characterising the timescale for the dual state to transit from an initial thermal equilibrium to another due to a homogeneous quench. For long quench duration, the spectral function indeed follows the thermal form at the instantaneous effective temperature adiabatically, although with a slight initial time delay and a bit premature thermalisation. At shorter quench durations, several new non-adiabatic features appear: (i) time-dependence of the spectral function is seen much before than that in the effective temperature (advanced time-dependence), (ii) a big transfer of spectral weight to frequencies greater than the initial temperature occurs at an intermediate time (kink formation) and (iii) new peaks with decreasing amplitudes but in greater numbers appear even after the effective temperature has stabilised (persistent oscillations). We find four broad routes to thermalisation for lower values of spatial momenta. At higher values of spatial momenta, kink formations and persistent oscillations are suppressed, and thermalisation time decreases. The general thermalisation pattern is globally top-down, but a closer look reveals complexities.

description: Direct state tomography (DST) using weak measurements has received wide attention. Based on the concept of coupling-deformed pointer observables presented by Zhang \emph{et al}.[Phys. Rev. A \textbf{93}, 032128 (2016)], a modified direct state tomography (MDST) is proposed, examined, and compared with other typical state tomography schemes. MDST has exact validity for measurements of any strength. We identify the strength needed to attain the highest efficiency level of MDST by using statistical theory. MDST is much more efficient than DST in the sense that far fewer samples are needed to reach DST's level of reconstruction accuracy. Moreover, MDST has no inherent bias when compared to DST.

description: The Weyl geometry promises potential applications in gravity and quantum mechanics. We study the relationships between the Weyl geometry, quantum entropy and quantum entanglement based on the Weyl geometry endowing the Euclidean metric. We give the formulation of the Weyl Ricci curvature and Weyl scalar curvature in the $n$-dimensional system. The Weyl scalar field plays a bridge role to connect the Weyl scalar curvature, quantum potential and quantum entanglement. We also give the Einstein-Weyl tensor and the generalized field equation in 3D vacuum case, which reveals the relationship between Weyl geometry and quantum potential. Particularly, we find that the correspondence between the Weyl scalar curvature and quantum potential is dimension-dependent and works only for the 3D space, which reveals a clue to quantize gravity and a understanding why our space must be 3D if quantum gravity is compatible with quantum mechanics. We analyze numerically a typical example of two orthogonal oscillators to reveal the relationships between the Weyl scalar curvature, quantum potential and quantum entanglement based on this formulation. We find that the Weyl scalar curvature shows a negative dip peak for separate state but becomes a positive peak for the entangled state near original point region, which can be regarded as a geometric signal to detect quantum entanglement.

description: In the recent progress in nonequilibrium thermodynamics, information has been recognized as a kind of thermodynamic resource that can drive thermodynamic current without any direct energy injection. In this paper, we establish the framework of linear irreversible thermodynamics for a broad class of autonomous information processing. In particular, we prove that the Onsager reciprocity holds true with information: The linear response matrix is well-defined, and is shown symmetric with both of the information affinity and the conventional thermodynamic affinity. As an application, we derive a universal bound for the efficiency at maximum power for information-driven engines in the linear regime. Our result reveals the fundamental role of information flow in linear irreversible thermodynamics, and would be applicable to study the role of information in biological systems.

description: Lexicographic Ranking SuperMartingale (LexRSM) is a probabilistic extension of Lexicographic Ranking Function (LexRF), which is a widely accepted technique for verifying program termination. In this paper, we are the first to propose sound probabilistic extensions of LexRF with a weaker non-negativity condition, called single-component (SC) non-negativity. It is known that such an extension, if it exists, will be nontrivial due to the intricacies of the probabilistic circumstances.
 Toward the goal, we first devise the notion of fixability, which offers a systematic approach for analyzing the soundness of possibly negative LexRSM. This notion yields a desired extension of LexRF that is sound for general stochastic processes. We next propose another extension, called Lazy LexRSM, toward the application to automated verification; it is sound over probabilistic programs with linear arithmetics, while its subclass is amenable to automated synthesis via linear programming. We finally propose a LexRSM synthesis algorithm for this subclass, and perform experiments.

description: We propose a mixture evolution scenario to model the evolution of the radio luminosity function (RLF) of steep spectrum AGNs (active galactic nuclei) based on a Bayesian method. In this scenario, the shape of the RLF is determined by both the density and luminosity evolution. Our models indicate that the density evolution is positive until a redshift of $\thicksim 0.9$, at which point it becomes negative, while the luminosity evolution is positive to a higher redshift ($z \thicksim 5$ for model B and $z \thicksim 3.5$ for model C), where it becomes negative. Our mixture evolution model works well, and the modeled RLFs are in good agreement with previous determinations. The mixture evolution scenario can naturally explain the luminosity-dependent evolution of the RLFs.

The ground states of the matrix model include spin-singlet generalisations of the Moore-Read and Read-Rezayi states and, in general, lie in a class previously introduced by Blok and Wen. The effective action for these states is a U(p) Chern-Simons theory. We show how the matrix model can be derived from quantisation of the vortices in this Chern-Simons theory and how the matrix model ground states can be reconstructed as correlation functions in the boundary WZW model.

description: Formation, evolution, and dispersal processes of protoplanetary disks are investigated and the disk lifetime is estimated. Gravitational collapse of a pre-stellar core forms both a central star and a protoplanetary disk. The central star grows by accretion from the disk, and irradiation by the central star heats up the disk and generates thermal wind, which results in the disk dispersal. We calculate the evolution of protoplanetary disks from their parent pre-stellar cores to dispersal of the disks. We find that the disk lifetimes of typical pre-stellar cores are around 2--4 million years (Myr). A pre-stellar core with high angular momentum forms a larger disk whose lifetime is long, while a disk around a X-ray luminous star has a short lifetime. Integrating the disk lifetimes under various mass and angular velocity of prestellar cores and X-ray luminosities of young stellar objects, we obtain disk fraction at a given stellar age and mean lifetime of the disks. Our model indicates that the mean lifetime of protoplanetary disks is 3.7 Myr, which is consistent with the observational estimate from young stellar clusters. We also find that the dispersion of X-ray luminosity is needed to reproduce the observed disk fraction.

description: The aim of our study was to characterize the composition and certain bioactivities of the essential oil of Ambrosia artemisiifolia. Eighty organic compounds were identified in the essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation and microwave-assisted isolation. Germacrene D was the main component in both oils. The essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation exerted antibacterial activity against two S. aureus strains, with MIC values of 0.015% for the methicillin-susceptible strain and 0.25% for the methicillin-resistant strain. In the biofilm formation assay, a dose-dependent inhibition was observed in case of the K. pneumoniae ATCC 600,703. In the ethidium bromide accumulation assay, a dose-dependent inhibition activity was observed against the bacterial efflux pump of the Gram-negative bacteria E. coli ATCC 25,922. The essential oil displayed strong in vitro cytotoxicity against the multidrug-resistant (MDR) Colo 320 cancer cell line with an IC50 value of 0.0103%. The essential oil showed strong inhibition on the proliferation of the doxorubicin-sensitive Colo 205 cells (IC50 values of 0.054%) and in the case of MDR Colo 320 colonic adenocarcinoma cells (IC50 values of 0.008%). This is the first report of the cytotoxic and antiproliferative activities of the essential oil from these species.
A relativistically exact Eikonal equation for optical fibers with application to adiabatically deforming ring interferometers

description: We derive the relativistically exact Eikonal equation for ring interferometers undergoing deformations. For ring interferometers that undergo slow deformation we describe the two leading terms in the adiabatic expansion of the phase shift. The leading term is independent of the refraction index $n$ and is given by a line integral generalizing results going back to Sagnac \cite{sagnac1913,wang2004,Ori} for non-deforming interferometers to all orders in {$β=|\mathbf{v}|/c$}. In the non-relativistic limit {this term} is $O(β)$. The next term in the adiabaticity has the form of a double integral, it is of order $β^0$ and depends on the refractive index $n$. It accounts for non-reciprocity due to changing circumstances in the fiber. The adiabatic correction is often comparable to the Sagnac term. In particular, this is the case in Fizeau's interferometer. Besides providing a mathematical framework that puts all ring interferometers under a single umbrella, our results generalize and strengthen results of \cite{Ori, shupe} to fibers with chromatic dispersion.

description: Feedback loops are known as a versatile tool for controlling transport in small systems, which usually have large intrinsic fluctuations. Here we investigate the control of a temporal correlation function, the waiting time distribution, under active and passive feedback conditions. We develop a general formalism and then specify to the simple unidirectional transport model, where we compare costs of open loop and feedback control and use methods from optimal control theory to optimize waiting time distributions.

Revisiting instanton corrections to the Konishi multiplet

description: We revisit the calculation of instanton effects in correlation functions in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM involving the Konishi operator and operators of twist two. Previous studies revealed that the scaling dimensions and the OPE coefficients of these operators do not receive instanton corrections in the semiclassical approximation. We go beyond this approximation and demonstrate that, while operators belonging to the same ${\cal N}=4$ supermultiplet ought to have the same conformal data, the evaluation of quantum instanton corrections for one operator can be mapped into a semiclassical computation for another operator in the same supermultiplet. This observation allows us to compute explicitly the leading instanton correction to the scaling dimension of operators in the Konishi supermultiplet as well as to their structure constants in the OPE of two half-BPS scalar operators. We then use these results, together with crossing symmetry, to determine instanton corrections to scaling dimensions of twist-four operators with large spin.
