description: Pseudocode illustrating the event and object selections for all the $3\ell 1b$ signal regions
description: A search for direct top squark pair production resulting in events with either a same-flavour opposite-sign dilepton pair with invariant mass compatible with a $Z$ boson or a pair of jets compatible with a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson ($h$) is presented. Requirements on additional leptons, jets, jets identified as originating from b-quarks, and missing transverse momentum are imposed to target the other decay products of the top squark pair. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data at sqrt{s} = 13 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2015-2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{−1}$. No excess is observed in the data with respect to the expected SM predictions. The results are interpreted in two sets of models. In the first set, direct production of pairs of lighter top squarks ($\tilde{t}_1$) with long decay chains involving $Z$ or Higgs bosons is considered. The second set includes direct pair production of the heavier top squark pairs ($\tilde{t}_2$) decaying via $\tilde{t}_2 \rightarrow Z \tilde{t}_1$ or $\tilde{t}_2 \rightarrow h \tilde{t}_1$. The results exclude at 95% confidence level $\tilde{t}_2$ and $\tilde{t}_1$ masses up to about 800 GeV, extending the exclusion region of supersymmetric parameter space covered by previous LHC searches.

description: Experiments with electron or ion matter waves require a coherent, monochromatic and long-term stable source with high brightness. These requirements are best fulfilled by single atom tip (SAT) field emitters. The performance of an iridium covered W(111) SAT is demonstrated and analyzed for electrons in a biprism interferometer. Furthermore we characterize the emission of the SAT in a separate field electron and field ion microscope and compare it with other emitter types. A new method is presented to fabricate the electrostatic charged biprism wire that separates and combines the matter wave. In contrast to other biprism interferometers the source and the biprism size are well defined within a few nanometers. The setup has direct applications in ion interferometry and Aharonov-Bohm physics.

description: We propose a protocol for transitionless driving of a bound quantum system in its parameter space using repeated measurement-like interactions with an external spectator system. As a consequence of the quantum Zeno effect, the fidelity of the final state preparation is equal to unity in the limit of infinite-rate interactions. For finite-rate interactions, the maximal fidelity is achieved for the driving trajectory having a minimal geometric length and keeping a constant speed with respect to the Provost-Vallee metric in the parameter space. We numerically test the protocol in an interacting multiqubit system, demonstrating its dominance over the method of coherent driving.

description: Galaxies, which often contain ionised gas, sometimes also exhibit a so-called low-ionisation nuclear emission line region (LINER). For 30 years this was attributed to a central mass-accreting supermassive black hole (AGN) of low luminosity, making LINER galaxies the largest AGN-sub-population, dominating in numbers over higher luminosity Seyfert galaxies and quasars. This, however, poses a serious problem. While the inferred energy balance is plausible, many LINERs clearly do not contain any other independent signatures of an AGN. Using integral field spectroscopic data from the CALIFA survey, we aim at comparing the observed radial surface brightness profiles with what is expected from illumination by an AGN. Essential for this analysis is a proper extraction of emission-lines, especially weak lines such as the Balmer Hb line which is superposed on an absorption trough. To accomplish this, we use the GANDALF code which simultaneously fits the underlying stellar continuum and emission lines. We show for 48 galaxies with LINER-like emission, that the radial emission-line surface brightness profiles are inconsistent with ionisation by a central point-source and hence cannot be due to an AGN alone. The most probable explanation for the excess LINER-like emission is ionisation by evolved stars during the short but very hot and energetic phase known as post-AGB. This leads us to an entirely new interpretation. Post-AGB stars are ubiquitous and their ionising effect should be potentially observable in every galaxy with gas present and stars older than ~1 Gyr, unless a stronger radiation field from young hot stars or an AGN outshines them. This means that galaxies with LINER-like emission are in fact not a class defined by a property, but rather by the absence of a property. It also explains why LINER emission is observed mostly in massive galaxies with old stars and little star formation.

description: We construct higher dimensional Euclidean AdS wormhole solutions that reproduce the statistical description of the correlation functions of an ensemble of heavy CFT operators. We consider an operator which effectively backreacts on the geometry in the form of a thin shell of dust particles. Assuming dynamical chaos in the form of the ETH ansatz, we demonstrate that the semiclassical path integral provides an effective statistical description of the microscopic features of the thin shell operator in the CFT. The Euclidean wormhole solutions provide microcanonical saddlepoint contributions to the cumulants of the correlation functions over the ensemble of operators. We finally elaborate on the role of these wormholes in the context of non-perturbative violations of bulk global symmetries in AdS/CFT.

Year: 2018

description: Enhancement of customer service quality was one of the targets wished-for by the Ethiopian Revenue Customs Authority in bonded warehouse operations. For this reason, ERCA commenced diverse programs in order to meet the wished-for target. As per the data obtained from Addis Ababa Kality Customs Branch Office as of October 2017 the total number of licensee bonded warehouse customers decreased from 320 to 223. Complaining about service quality was one out of several factors for the decreasing number. For this reason, the main objective of this research was to assess factors affecting customer satisfaction of customs services of bonded warehouse operations where a survey conducted in Addis Ababa. This research was based upon the customer’s perspectives and experiences of customs services of bonded warehouse operations in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This research intended to determine the significance level of service quality dimensions, explore the relationship between customer perceived value and customer satisfaction, the relationship between employee behavior/professionalism and customer satisfaction in bonded warehouse operations

description: Simulations using 3D and 2D full-wave codes have shown that edge filaments in tokamak plasmas can significantly affect the propagation of microwaves across a broad frequency spectrum, resulting in scattering angles of up to 46 degrees. Parameter scans were carried out for density perturbations comparable in width and amplitude to MAST filaments and the effect on the measured emission was calculated. 3D effects were discovered in the case of an obliquely incident beam. In general, the problem of EM propagation past wavelength-sized 3D inhomogeneities is not well understood, yet is of importance for both heating and diagnostic applications in the electron cyclotron frequency range for tokamaks, as well as atmospheric physics. To improve this understanding, a new cold-plasma code, EMIT-3D, was written to extend full-wave microwave simulations in magnetized plasmas to 3D, and make comparisons to the existing 2D code IPF-FDMC. This work supports MAST experiments using the SAMI diagnostic to image microwave emission from the plasma edge due to mode conversion from electron Bernstein waves. Significant fluctuations in the SAMI data mean that detailed modelling is required to improve its interpretation.

description: Superconductivity in alkali-intercalated iron selenide, with T_c's of 30K and above, may have a different origin than that of the other Fe-based superconductors, since it appears that the Fermi surface does not have any holelike sheets centered around the Gamma point. Here we investigate the symmetry of the superconducting gap in the framework of spin-fluctuation pairing calculations using density functional theory bands downfolded onto a three-dimensional (3D), ten-orbital tight-binding model, treating the interactions in the random-phase approximation (RPA). We find a leading instability towards a state with d-wave symmetry, but show that the details of the gap function depend sensitively on electronic structure. As required by crystal symmetry, quasi-nodes on electron pockets always occur, but are shown to be either horizontal, looplike or vertical depending on details. A variety of other 3D gap structures, including bonding-antibonding s-symmetry states which change sign between inner and outer electron pockets are found to be subdominant. We then investigate the possibility that spin-orbit coupling effects on the one-electron band structure, which lead to enhanced splitting of the two M-centered electron pockets in the 2-Fe zone, may stabilize the bonding-antibonding s_+/- wave states. Finally, we discuss our results in the context of current phenomenological theories and experiments.

Non-perturbative analysis for a massless minimal quantum scalar with $V(ϕ)=λϕ^4/4!+βϕ^3/3!$ in the inflationary de Sitter spacetime

description: We consider a massless, minimally coupled quantum scalar field theory with an asymmetric self interaction, $V (ϕ) = λϕ^4/4!+βϕ^3/3!$ ($λ>0$) in the inflationary de Sitter spacetime. The potential is bounded from below. While the $β=0$ case has been much well studied, the motivation behind taking such a hybrid potential corresponds to the fact that it might generate finite negative vacuum expectation values of $V(ϕ)$ as well of $ϕ$, leading to some dynamical screening of the inflationary cosmological constant $Λ$, at late times, with the initial conditions, $\langle ϕ\rangle=0=\langle V(ϕ) \rangle $. In this work we first compute the vacuum expectation values of $ϕ,\, ϕ^2$ and $V(ϕ)$, using the late time, non-perturbative and infrared effective stochastic formalism. The backreactions to the inflationary $Λ$ are estimated. We also compute the dynamically generated mass of the scalar field using $\langle ϕ^2 \rangle$. We next compute $\langleϕ^2\rangle$ using quantum field theory with respect to the initial Bunch-Davies vacuum at one and two loops, using the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism. These results show non-perturbative secular logarithms, growing with the cosmological time. Using next a recently proposed renormalisation group inspired formalism, we attempt to find out a resummed $\langleϕ^2\rangle$. We have been able to resum some part of the same which contains contributions only from the local self energy. The corresponding dynamically generated mass is computed. Comparison of the stochastic and the quantum field theory results shows that they differ numerically, although they have similar qualitative behaviour. Possible reasons for such quantitative mismatch is discussed. The manifestation of strong non-classical effects in the results found via both the formalisms has been emphasised.

description: We explore the effective theory of an axion in a gauged baryon number symmetry extension of the Standard Model (SM), where the axion is realized from a Dine-Fischler-Srednicki-Zhitnitsky (DFSZ) model construction. Integrating out the anomalons realizes a pattern of effective Wilson coefficients reflecting the factorization between the anomalous Peccei-Quinn and gauged baryon number symmetries. We construct and analyze the chiral transformation invariance of the axion effective theory, accounting for possible flavor-violating axion couplings. We calculate and study the unique phenomenology of the axion and $Z'$ boson, and we present the current collider limits on these particles in the $\{m_{Z'}, g_B\}$, $\{m_a, G_{a γγ} \}$, and $\{m_a, f_a^{-1}\}$ planes.

description: In political campaigning substantial resources are spent on voter mobilization, that is, on identifying and influencing as many people as possible to vote. Campaigns use statistical tools for deciding whom to target ("microtargeting"). In this paper we describe a nonpartisan campaign that aims at increasing overall turnout using the example of the 2004 US presidential election. Based on a real data set of 19,634 eligible voters from Ohio, we introduce a modern statistical framework well suited for carrying out the main tasks of voter targeting in a single sweep: predicting an individual's turnout (or support) likelihood for a particular cause, party or candidate as well as data-driven voter segmentation. Our framework, which we refer to as LORET (for LOgistic REgression Trees), contains standard methods such as logistic regression and classification trees as special cases and allows for a synthesis of both techniques. For our case study, we explore various LORET models with different regressors in the logistic model components and different partitioning variables in the tree components; we analyze them in terms of their predictive accuracy and compare the effect of using the full set of available variables against using only a limited amount of information. We find that augmenting a standard set of variables (such as age and voting history) with additional predictor variables (such as the household composition in terms of party affiliation) clearly improves predictive accuracy. We also find that LORET models based on tree induction beat the unpartitioned models. Furthermore, we illustrate how voter segmentation arises from our framework and discuss the resulting profiles from a targeting point of view.

description: Modular parallel transport is a generalization of Berry phases, applied to modular (entanglement) Hamiltonians. Here we initiate the study of modular parallel transport for disjoint field theory regions. We study modular parallel transport in the kinematic space of multi-interval regions in the vacuum of 1+1-dimensional free fermion theory--one of the few theories for which modular Hamiltonians on disjoint regions are known. We compute explicitly the generators of modular parallel transport, and explain why their relatively simple form follows from a half-sided modular inclusion. We also compute explicitly the curvature two-form of modular parallel transport. We contrast all calculations with the expected behavior of modular parallel transport in holographic theories, emphasizing the role of non-local terms that couple distinct intervals.

description: In this paper, a framework is presented for node distribution with respect to density, network connectivity and communication time. According to modeled framework we evaluate and compare the performance of three routing protocols; Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV), Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Fisheye State Routing (FSR) in MANETs and VANETs using two Mac-layer protocols; 802.11 and 802.11p. We have further modified these protocols by changing their routing information exchange intervals; MOD AODV, MOD DSR and MOD FSR. A comprehensive simulation work is performed in NS-2 for the comparison of these routing protocols for varying mobilities and scalabilities of nodes. To evaluate their efficiency; throughput, End-to-End Delay (E2ED) and Normalized Routing Load (NRL) of these protocols are taken into account as performance parameters. After extensive simulations, we observe that AODV outperforms both with MANETs and VANETs.

Deformation mechanisms in iron-base hard facing alloys
Creators: name: Poole, Benjamin Oliver
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: A combination of crystal plasticity finite element modelling and experimental micromechanical examination has been used to investigate the deformation behaviour of iron-base hard facing alloys. This is in the context of future iron-base hard facing alloys for use in light water nuclear reactors, avoiding the radiological issues presented by cobalt-base hard facings. Transient thermal effects were examined in normally loaded, sliding surfaces with representative simulations, and found to be not significant to the initiation of galling. New experimental equipment has been developed to allow elevated temperature, small scale micromechanical testing to be performed. This new equipment was used to perform detailed deformation studies of the alloys Nitronic 60 and Tristelle 5183. These studies applied correlated high-resolution digital image correlation and high-angular resolution electron backscatter diffraction to link measurements of plastic strain with geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density. Direct connection between the behaviour of interacting slip bands and the generation of GNDs has been made with this correlated methodology. Alloy microstructure controlled deformation with hardening achieved through different mechanisms in the two alloys, outweighing the influence of elevated temperature on deformation behaviour. A fine, carbide-containing microstructure was demonstrated to be superior in resisting plastic deformation. To complement these experimental studies, microstructures of experimentally examined specimens were explicitly reproduced within a crystal plasticity framework, allowing the extraction of crystal level properties for these alloys at 300°C. These representative material models were then used to perform a preliminary investigation into the effect of carbide decohesion under sliding contact. The studies demonstrated that the rapid decrease in galling strength which occurs in these alloys at approximately 200oC does not occur as a result of the intrinsic material property changes with temperature. Rather, it is hypothesised to be a combination of factors including local phase transformation leading to interfacial degradation. These observations of deformation behaviour can now be used to inform the design of future iron-base hard facing alloys for galling resistance.
The Effects of Gas Angular Momentum on the Formation of Magnetically Arrested Disks and the Launching of Powerful Jets

description: In this letter, we investigate Bondi-like accretion flows with zero or low specific angular momentum by performing 3D general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations. In order to check if relativistic jets can be launched magnetically from such flows, we insert a large-scale poloidal magnetic field into the accretion flow and consider a rapidly spinning black hole. We demonstrate that under such conditions the accretion flow needs to initially have specific angular momentum above a certain threshold to eventually reach and robustly sustain the magnetically arrested disk state. If the flow can reach such a state, it can launch very powerful jets at $\gtrsim 100\%$ energy efficiency. Interestingly, we also find that even when the accretion flow has initial specific angular momentum below the threshold, it can still launch episodic jets with an average energy efficiency of $\sim 10\%$. However, the accretion flow has nontypical behaviors such as having different rotation directions at different inclinations and exhibiting persistent outflows along the midplane even in the inner disk region. Our results give plausible explanations as to why jets can be produced from various astrophysical systems that likely lack large gas specific angular momenta, such as Sgr A*, wind-fed X-ray binaries, tidal disruption events, and long-duration gamma-ray bursts.

description: Despite the plethora of pharmacological agents available for a wide array of clinical conditions, the quest for versatile drugs that offer benefits across a spectrum of diseases remains a pivotal goal in medical research. Amitradicain, historically confined within the realm of rare disease therapeutics, has emerged as a compound of interest due to its potential application in a broader clinical context. This paper aims to delineate the efficacy of the composite drug Amitradicain formula beyond its conventional usage, proposing a possible paradigm shift in its clinical deployments.

description: Recent numerical results point to the existence of a conformally invariant twist defect in the critical 3d Ising model. In this note we show that this fact is supported by both epsilon expansion and conformal bootstrap calculations. We find that our results are in good agreement with the numerical data. We also make new predictions for operator dimensions and OPE coefficients from the bootstrap approach. In the process we derive universal bounds on one-dimensional conformal field theories and conformal line defects.

description: Viscoelasticity is well known to cause significant hysteresis of crack closure and opening when an elastomer is brought in and out of contact with a flat, rigid, adhesive counterface. A separate origin of adhesive hysteresis is small-scale, elastic multistability. Here, we study a system in which both mechanisms act concurrently. Specifically, we compare the simulated and experimentally measured time evolution of the interfacial force and the real contact area between a soft elastomer and a rigid, flat punch, to which small-scale, single-sinusoidal roughness is added. To this end, we further the Green's function molecular dynamics method and extend recently developed imaging techniques to elucidate the rate- and preload-dependence of the pull-off process. Our results reveal that hysteresis is much enhanced when the saddle points of the topography come into contact, which, however, is impeded by viscoelastic forces and may require sufficiently large preloads. A similar coaction of viscous- and multistability effects is expected to occur in macroscopic polymer contacts and to be relevant, e.g., for pressure-sensitive adhesives and modern adhesive gripping devices.

COMMENTS: Reviewed by Corbet (1978c, 1984), who (1978c:88) noted that "generic divisions within the group are rather unstable and a fresh, comprehensive classification is required," a conclusion we echo after studying specimens and literature. One of these divisions is Cricetulus, and Corbet (1978c:90) acknowledged that some species he listed there are frequently placed in Allocricetulus and Tscherskia, but "pending a review of generic classification in the subfamily as a whole," he preferred to include those genera in Cricetulus. We prefer the opposite: to recognize the separate genera until the subfamily is systematically revised. In cranial morphology, Allocricetulus closely resembles Cricetus, not Cricetulus, and the latter is more like Phodopus than either Tscherskia or Allocricetulus. Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1987) also treated Cricetulus, Allocricetulus, and Tscherskia as genera. Some of the Chinese hamsters were reviewed by Wang and Zheng (1973). Keys to the European species were provided by Niethammer (1982a). Chromosomal information for European species was recorded by Zima and Krâl (1984a). Carleton and Musser (1984) diagnosised the subfamily and reviewed general characters, major fossil groups, and other topics.

Quasinormal mode representation of radiating resonators in open phononic systems

description: Open phononic systems including resonators radiating inside an unbounded medium support localized phonons characterized by a complex frequency. In this context, the concept of elastic quasinormal mode (QNM) arises naturally, as in the cases of nanophotonic and plasmonic open systems. Based on a complex, unconjugated form of reciprocity theorem for elastodynamics, the eigenfunction expansion theorem expressed on the elastic QNM basis yields an accurate approximation to the response function, for an arbitrary excitation. The description of the elastic Purcell effect then requires defining a complex-valued modal volume for each QNM. For validation, we first consider the case a vibrating nylon rod radiating in water. As a second test example, we consider a slender nickel ridge on the surface of a fused silica substrate, before extending our attention to a nanoscale tuning fork composed of two such ridges. In all cases, the response estimated from only a few elastic QNMs agrees with the solution to the elastodynamic equation.

description: Star-forming regions that are visible at 3.6 microns and Halpha but not in the u,g,r,i,z bands of the Sloan Digital Sky survey (SDSS), are measured in five nearby spiral galaxies to find extinctions averaging ~3.8 mag and stellar masses averaging ~5x10^4 Msun. These regions are apparently young star complexes embedded in dark filamentary shock fronts connected with spiral arms. The associated cloud masses are ~10^7 Msun. The conditions required to make such complexes are explored, including gravitational instabilities in spiral shocked gas and compression of incident clouds. We find that instabilities are too slow for a complete collapse of the observed spiral filaments, but they could lead to star formation in the denser parts. Compression of incident clouds can produce a faster collapse but has difficulty explaining the semi-regular spacing of some regions along the arms. If gravitational instabilities are involved, then the condensations have the local Jeans mass. Also in this case, the near-simultaneous appearance of equally spaced complexes suggests that the dust lanes, and perhaps the arms too, are relatively young.
