description: The differential decay spectrum $dΓ/dE_e dq^2$ for the semileptonic decay of an unpolarized hadron containing a b-quark, and the decay spectrum $dΓ/dE_e dq^2 d\!\cosθ$ for polarized $Λ_b$ decay are computed to second order in the $1/m_b$ expansion. Most of the $1/m_b^2$ corrections have a simple physical interpretation, which is discussed in detail. The implications of the results for the determination of $V_{ub}$ are discussed. The decay spectra for semileptonic decay of hadrons containing a c-quark are also given. There is a subtlety in the use of the equations of motion at order $1/m_b^2$ in the heavy quark expansion which is explained.

description: An observational, cross-cultural study and an experimental study assessed behaviors indicative of a moral code that condones, and even values, hostility toward outgroups. The cross-cultural study, which used data from the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample (Murdock & White, 1969), found that for preindustrial societies, as loyalty to the ingroup increased the tendency to value outgroup violence more than ingroup violence increased, as did the tendencies to engage in more external than internal warfare, and enjoy war. The experimental study found that relative to guilt-prone group members who were instructed to remain objective, guilt-prone group members who were instructed to be empathic with their ingroup were more competitive in an intergroup interaction. The findings from these studies suggest that group morality is associated with intergroup conflict.

description: The arginine deiminase system (ADS) has been identified in various bacteria and functions to supplement energy production and enhance biological adaptability. The current understanding of the regulatory mechanism of ADS and its effect on bacterial pathogenesis is still limited. Here, we found that the XRE family transcriptional regulator XtrSs negatively affected Streptococcus suis virulence and significantly repressed ADS transcription when the bacteria were incubated in blood. Electrophoretic mobility shift (EMSA) and lacZ fusion assays further showed that XtrSs directly bind to the promoter of ArgR, an acknowledged positive regulator of bacterial ADS, to repress ArgR transcription. Moreover, we provided compelling evidence that S. suis could utilize arginine via ADS to adapt to acid stress, while ΔxtrSs enhanced this acid resistance by upregulating the ADS operon. Moreover, whole ADS-knockout S. suis increased arginine and antimicrobial NO in the infected macrophage cells, decreased intracellular survival, and even caused significant attenuation of bacterial virulence in a mouse infection model, while ΔxtrSs consistently presented the opposite results. Our experiments identified a novel ADS regulatory mechanism in S. suis, whereby XtrSs regulated ADS to modulate NO content in macrophages, promoting S. suis intracellular survival. Meanwhile, our findings provide a new perspective on how Streptococci evade the host’s innate immune system.

description: Uncoordinated individuals in human society pursuing their personally optimal strategies do not always achieve the social optimum, the most beneficial state to the society as a whole. Instead, strategies form Nash equilibria which are often socially suboptimal. Society, therefore, has to pay a price of anarchy for the lack of coordination among its members. Here we assess this price of anarchy by analyzing the travel times in road networks of several major cities. Our simulation shows that uncoordinated drivers possibly waste a considerable amount of their travel time. Counterintuitively,simply blocking certain streets can partially improve the traffic conditions. We analyze various complex networks and discuss the possibility of similar paradoxes in physics.

description: Active plasma lenses have the potential to enable broad-ranging applications of plasma-based accelerators owing to their compact design and radially symmetric kT/m-level focusing fields, facilitating beam-quality preservation and compact beam transport. We report on the direct measurement of magnetic field gradients in active plasma lenses and demonstrate their impact on the emittance of a charged particle beam. This is made possible by the use of a well-characterized electron beam with 1.4 mm mrad normalized emittance from a conventional accelerator. Field gradients of up to 823 T/m are investigated. The observed emittance evolution is supported by numerical simulations, which suggest the potential for conservation of the core beam emittance in such a plasma lens setup.

Group Formation with a Network Constraint

description: Group formation is an important part of many kinds of economic problems, including rent-seeking, resource management, contract bidding, volunteer organization, problem solving, and political lobbying. The current literature on group formation assumes that individuals are unconstrained in their choice of groups–that they may join any existing group. However, instances where group membership decisions are truly unconstrained are rare. Individuals face a wide range of social, geographic, and informational constraints in their group membership decisions. In this paper, I extend the existing group membership models to account for such widespread constraints. I imbed the players in a network of relationships, which constrains their choice of groups–they may only join a group if that group contains a member that they are connected to on the network. I then examine how this network constraint affects the equilibrium group structure. I show that when payoffs are single-peaked in group size and individuals are unconstrained in their group membership, they will form groups that are much too large, from the standpoint of social welfare. This is due to the externality that new members impose on the group’s existing membership–new members free ride off of the efforts of early group members, and new groups are under-provided. I then consider the effect of a network constraint on equilibrium group structure. I show that when individuals are constrained by their networks, the resulting group structures are much closer to the socially optimal group structure, and thus much more efficient. This is because the network constraint limits the ability of the individual to free ride on the efforts of other group members. The efficiency of the outcome is related to the structure of the network constraint–outcomes are more efficient when networks are sparse and have few random connections.

description: In this paper, we prove a quantum union bound that is relevant when performing a sequence of binary-outcome quantum measurements on a quantum state. The quantum union bound proved here involves a tunable parameter that can be optimized, and this tunable parameter plays a similar role to a parameter involved in the Hayashi-Nagaoka inequality [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 49(7):1753 (2003)], used often in quantum information theory when analyzing the error probability of a square-root measurement. An advantage of the proof delivered here is that it is elementary, relying only on basic properties of projectors, the Pythagorean theorem, and the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality. As a non-trivial application of our quantum union bound, we prove that a sequential decoding strategy for classical communication over a quantum channel achieves a lower bound on the channel's second-order coding rate. This demonstrates the advantage of our quantum union bound in the non-asymptotic regime, in which a communication channel is called a finite number of times. We expect that the bound will find a range of applications in quantum communication theory, quantum algorithms, and quantum complexity theory.

description: We consider the possibility of observing a parity violating but $CP$ conserving interaction in the symmetry breaking sector of the electroweak theory. We find that the best probe for such an interaction is a forward-backward asymmetry in $W^+W^-$ production from polarized $e^-_R e^+_L$ collisions. An observable asymmetry would be strong evidence against a custodial $SU(2)$ symmetry. We also discuss the effects of such an interaction in future $e^- γ$ colliders as well as in rare decays of $K$ and $B$ mesons.

description: Only a small fraction of observed Active Galactic Nuclei display large-scale radio emission associated with jets, yet these radio-loud AGN have become increasingly important in models of galaxy evolution. In determining the dynamics and energetics of the radio sources over cosmic time, a key question concerns what happens when their jets switch off. The resulting `remnant' radio-loud AGN have been surprisingly evasive in past radio surveys, and therefore statistical information on the population of radio-loud AGN in their dying phase is limited. In this paper, with the recent developments of LOFAR and the VLA, we are able to provide a systematically selected sample of remnant radio-loud AGN in the Herschel-ATLAS field. Using a simple core-detection method, we constrain the upper limit on the fraction of remnants in our radio-loud AGN sample to 9 per cent, implying that the extended lobe emission fades rapidly once the core/jets turn off. We also find that our remnant sample has a wide range of spectral indices ($-1.5\leqslant α^{1400}_{150}\leqslant -0.5$), confirming that the lobes of some remnants may possess flat spectra at low frequencies just as active sources do. We suggest that, even with the unprecedented sensitivity of LOFAR, our sample may still only contain the youngest of the remnant population.

I propose to explain the origin of recoil from a microscopic point of view, which emphasizes the exact mechanism leading to recoil. This mechanism differs from one system to another. Several examples that can be easily implemented in the classroom environment are given in this paper. Such a profound understanding of the origin of recoil help students avoid some of the misconceptions that might arise from the phenomenological approach, and stimulates their thinking in the fundamental origins of other physical phenomena.

Cancellation of Infrared Divergences in Thermal QED

Year: 1993
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: As a preliminary step, the radiation produced by a classical charged current coupled to a quantized $A_μ$ is solved. To each order in $α$, all infrared divergences cancel between the virtual $γ$'s and the real $γ$'s absorbed from the plasma or emitted into the plasma. When all orders of perturbation theory are summed, the finite answer predicts a suppression of radiation with $ω< αT$. The analysis of QED then consists of two steps. First, a general probability at $T\neq 0$ is organized so that all the virtual $e^{\pm},γ$ are in the amplitudes and all the real $e^{\pm},γ$ are in the phase space integrations. Next, the cancellations of IR divergences between virtual and real are demonstrated.

description: We study the disk and accretion properties of young stars in the NGC 2068 and NGC 2071 clusters. Using low-resolution optical spectra, we define a membership sample and determine an age for the region of ~2 Myr. Using high-resolution spectra of the H-alpha line we study the accretion activity of these likely members and also examine the disk properties of the likely members using IRAC and MIPS mid-infrared photometry. A substantial fraction (79%) of the 67 members have an infrared excess while all of the stars with significant infrared excess show evidence for active accretion. We find three populations of evolved disks (IRAC-weak, MIPS-weak and transition disks) all of which show decreased accretion activity in addition to the evidence for evolution in the dust disk.

Quantum oscillations of the rectified dc voltage Vdc(B) as a function of magnetic field were measured in the 8-shape microstructure at various bias ac currents and temperatures close to critical. Fourier and wavelet analyses of Vdc(B) functions revealed the presence of various combination frequencies in addition to two ring fundamental frequencies, which suggests the interaction in the structure. Deviation of the Vdc(B) function from oddness with respect to the magnetic field direction was found for the first time.

Supersymmetry and cohomology of graph complexes

description: This is preprint HAL-00429963 (2009). I describe a combinatorial construction of the cohomology classes in compactified moduli spaces of curves $\widehat{Z}_{I}\in H^{*}(\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n})$ starting from the following data: an odd derivation $I$, whose square is non-zero in general, $I^{2}\neq 0$, acting on a $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$-graded associative algebra with odd scalar product. The constructed cocycles were first described in the theorem 2 in the author's paper "Noncommmutative Batalin-Vilkovisky geometry and Matrix integrals". Comptes Rendus Mathematique, 348, pp. 359-362, arXiv:0912.5484 , preprint HAL-00102085 (09/2006). By the theorem 3 from loc.cit. the family of the cohomology classes obtained in the case of the algebra $Q(N)$ and the derivation $I=\left[Λ,\cdot\right]$ coincided with the generating function of products of $ψ-$classes. This was the first nontrivial computation of categorical Gromov-Witten invariants of higher genus. The result matched with the mirror symmetry prediction, i.e. with the classical (non-categorical) Gromov-Witten descendent invariants of a point for all genus. As a byproduct of that computation a new combinatorial formula for products of $ψ$-classes $ψ_{i}=c_{1}(T_{p_{i}}^{*})$ in the cohomology $H^{*}(\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n})$ is written out.

description: We prove that the strong perfect graph conjecture holds for graphs that do not contain parachutes or proper wheels. This is done by showing the following theorem: If a graph G contains no odd hole, no parachute and no proper wheel, then G is bipartite or the line graph of a bipartite graph or G contains a star cutset or an extended strong 2-join or Ḡ is disconnected. To prove this theorem, we prove two decomposition theorems which are interesting in their own rights. The first is a generalization of the Burlet–Fonlupt decomposition of Meyniel graphs by clique cutsets and amalgams. The second is a precursor of the recent decomposition theorem of Chudnovsky, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas for Berge graphs that contain a line graph of a bipartite subdivision of a 3-connected graph.

description: We investigate the incidence of major mergers creating >10e11 Msun galaxies in present-day groups and clusters more massive than 2.5e13 Msun. We identify 38 pairs of massive galaxies with mutual tidal interaction signatures selected from >5000 galaxies with >5e10 Msun that reside in 845 such groups. We fit the images of each galaxy pair as the line-of-sight projection of symmetric models and identify mergers by the presence of residual asymmetries around each progenitor, such as off-center isophotes, broad tidal tails, and dynamical friction wakes. At the resolution and sensitivity of the SDSS, such mergers are found in 16% of high-mass, galaxy-galaxy pairs with magnitude differences of <1.5 and <30 kpc projected separations. We find that 90% of these mergers have nearly equal-mass progenitors with red-sequence colors and centrally-concentrated morphologies, the hallmarks of dissipationless merger simulations. Mergers at group centers are more common than between 2 satellites, but both are morphologically indistinguishable and we tentatively conclude that the latter are likely located at the dynamical centers of recently accreted subhalos. The frequency of central and satellite merging diminishes with group mass consistent with dynamical friction expectations. Based on reasonable assumptions, the centers of these massive halos are growing in stellar mass by 1-9% per Gyr, on average. Compared to all LRG-LRG mergers, we find a 2-9 times higher rate for their merging when restricted to these dense environments. Our results imply that the massive end of the galaxy population continues to evolve hierarchically at a measurable level, and that the centers of massive groups are the preferred environment for merger-driven galaxy assembly.

description: We explore the idea of obtaining valid inequalities for a 0-1 model from a constraint programming formulation of the problem. In particular, we formulate a graph coloring problem as a system of all-different constraints. By analyzing the polyhedral structure of all-diff systems, we obtain facet-defining inequalities that can be mapped to valid cuts in the classical 0-1 model of the problem. We focus on cuts corresponding to cyclic structures and show that they are stronger than known cuts. For example, when an existing separation algorithm identifies odd hole cuts, we can supply stronger cuts with no additional calculation. In addition, we generalize odd hole cuts to odd cycle cuts that are stronger than any collection of odd hole cuts.

description: During last years, researches have proposed novel repair approaches that automatically generate patches for repairing software bugs. Repair approaches can be loosely characterized along the main design philosophy such generate- and-validate or synthesis-based. Each of those repair approaches is a point in the design space of program repair. Our goal is to facilitate the design, development and evaluation of repair approaches by providing a framework that: a) contains components commonly present in approaches implementations thus new approaches can be built over them, b) provides built-in implementations of existing repair approach. This paper presents a framework named Astor that encores the design space of generate-and-validate repair approaches. Astor provides extension points that form the explicit decision space of program repair. Over those extension points, researchers can reuse existing components or implements new ones. Astor includes 6 Java implementation of repair approaches, including one of the pioneer: GenProg. Researcher have been already defining new approaches over Astor, proposing improvements of those built-in approaches by using the extension points, and executing approaches implementations from Astor in their evaluations. The implementations of the repair approaches built over Astor are capable of repair, in total, 98 real bugs from 5 large Java programs.

description: We show that the associated production $pp\to W^{\prime}W$, and the rare decay $pp\to W'\to \bar\ell\ell W$ are useful tests of $W'$ couplings to fermions at future hadron colliders. For $M_{W'}\sim (1 - 3)$ TeV they would allow a clean determination on whether the $W'$ couples to $V-A$ or $V+A$ currents. As an illustration a model in which the $W^{\prime\pm}$ couples only to $V-A$ currents is contrasted to the left-right symmetric models which involve $V+A$ currents.

description: The physical representation of the general double-Reissner-Nordstrom solution is obtained by rewriting the N=2 Breton-Manko-Aguilar electrostatic solution in the Varzugin-Chistyakov parametrization (M_i, Q_i, R). A concise analytical formula is derived for the interaction force between two arbitrary Reissner-Nordstrom constituents, and an example of the equilibrium configuration involving two oppositely charged particles which confirms earlier Bonnor's prediction of the existence of such configurations is given.

Low-Complexity Concatenated LDPC-Staircase Codes

description: A low-complexity soft-decision concatenated FEC scheme, consisting of an inner LDPC code and an outer staircase code is proposed. The inner code is tasked with reducing the bit error probability below the outer-code threshold. The concatenated code is obtained by optimizing the degree distribution of the inner-code ensemble to minimize estimated data-flow, for various choices of outer staircase codes. A key feature that emerges from this optimization is that it pays to leave some inner codeword bits completely uncoded, thereby greatly reducing a significant portion of the decoding complexity. The trade-off between required SNR and decoding complexity of the designed codes is characterized by a Pareto frontier. Computer simulations of the resulting codes reveals that the net coding-gains of existing designs can be achieved with up to 71\% reduction in complexity. A hardware-friendly quasi-cyclic construction is given for the inner codes, which can realize an energy-efficient decoder implementation, and even further complexity reductions via a layered message-passing decoder schedule.

description: The growth of government in all western countries is a remarkable phenomenon of our time. The growth is not adequately described b;/ measures commonly employed such as the share of output absorbed by government or the share of national income taken by taxes. Large and persistent budget deficits force adjustments on the capital market and on banks. A wide range of government policies and regulations force enterprises to choose less efficient production techniques. Frequent changes in the 'rules of the game', and arbitrary decisions and interpretations of existing rules reduce freedom and efficiency, raise costs and divert resources from socially productive activities to negotiations or bargaining with government agencies about the interpretation of regulations or their specific application. As the size of government grows and the regulations become more detailed, and more arbitrary, uncertainty about the future increases. Long-term investment is deferred, or deterred, independently of the efforts occurring on the capital and labour markets

Simulations of dynamo action in fully convective stars

description: We present three-dimensional nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the interiors of fully convective M-dwarfs. Our models consider 0.3 solar-mass stars using the Anelastic Spherical Harmonic code, with the spherical computational domain extending from 0.08-0.96 times the overall stellar radius. Like previous authors, we find that fully convective stars can generate kG-strength magnetic fields (in rough equipartition with the convective flows) without the aid of a tachocline of shear. Although our model stars are everywhere unstably stratified, the amplitudes and typical pattern sizes of the convective flows vary strongly with radius, with the outer regions of the stars hosting vigorous convection and field amplification while the deep interiors are more quiescent. Modest differential rotation is established in hydrodynamic calculations, but -- unlike in some prior work --strongly quenched in MHD simulations because of the Maxwell stresses exerted by the dynamo-generated magnetic fields. Despite the lack of strong differential rotation, the magnetic fields realized in the simulations possess significant mean (axisymmetric) components, which we attribute partly to the strong influence of rotation upon the slowly overturning flows.

description: At present, hydrogen-based compounds constitute one of the most promising classes of materials for applications as a phonon-mediated high-temperature superconductors. Herein, the behavior of the superconducting phase in tellurium hydride (HTe) at high pressure ($p=300$ GPa) is analyzed in details, by using the isotropic Migdal-Eliashberg equations. The chosen pressure conditions are considered here as a case study which corresponds to the highest critical temperature value ($T_{c}$) in the analyzed material, as determined within recent density functional theory simulations. It is found that the Migdal-Eliashberg formalism, which constitutes a strong-coupling generalization of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory, predicts that the critical temperature value ($T_{c}=52.73$ K) is higher than previous estimates of the McMillan formula. Further investigations show that the characteristic dimensionless ratios for the the thermodynamic critical field, the specific heat for the superconducting state, and the superconducting band gap exceeds the limits of the BCS theory. In this context, also the effective electron mass is not equal to the bare electron mass as provided by the BCS theory. On the basis of these findings it is predicted that the strong-coupling and retardation effects play pivotal role in the superconducting phase of HTe at 300 GPa, in agreement with similar theoretical estimates for the sibling hydrogen and hydrogen-based compounds. Hence, it is suggested that the superconducting state in HTe cannot be properly described within the mean-field picture of the BCS theory.

description: The nucleon electromagnetic form factors continue to be of major interest for experimentalists and phenomenologists alike. They provide important insights into the structure of nuclear matter. For a range of interesting momenta they can be calculated on the lattice. The limiting factor continues to be the value of the pion mass. We present the latest results of the QCDSF collaboration using gauge configurations with two dynamical, non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermions at pion masses as low as 350 MeV.

description: We study transitions between distinct phases of one-dimensional periodically driven (Floquet) systems. We argue that these are generically controlled by infinite-randomness fixed points of a strong-disorder renormalization group procedure. Working in the fermionic representation of the prototypical Floquet Ising chain, we leverage infinite randomness physics to provide a simple description of Floquet (multi)criticality in terms of a new type of domain wall associated with time-translational symmetry-breaking and the formation of `Floquet time crystals'. We validate our analysis via numerical simulations of free-fermion models sufficient to capture the critical physics.

description: The past decade has seen the proliferation of mobile and wearable computing devices into our everyday life. Such devices are now used throughout the day for both productivity and entertainment purposes. As a result, it is important that input techniques for these devices are efficient, effective and intuitive. Further, it is important that these techniques reflect the reality of common usage patterns. In particular, supporting single-handed usage is of paramount importance, given that in many scenarios only one hand is available. As the screen size of mobile devices are getting larger, single-handed usage becomes even more problematic. At the opposite end of the scale, using small wearable devices such as smartwatches or fitness trackers often requires two hands. This thesis is concerned with the exploration, design, and evaluation of input techniques that enable practical and effective single-handed interaction on mobile and wearable devices, which empower users to achieve more with their smart devices when only one hand is available. In particular, the thesis focuses on the practicability and actual implementation of such techniques, by using built-in or low-cost sensors that are readily available. The work first motivates the thesis topic that was encountered during the early phase of study. Then, the single-handed interaction problem is tackled with two types of device form factor, both mobile and wearable. This thesis studies the problem on three types of input modalities – mid-air gesture, hand posture, on-surface gesture and three types of interaction techniques – text input, gesture, pointing. This thesis provides several techniques, interaction methods and exemplars required to explore the single-handed interaction problem. The effectiveness and efficiency of the techniques are evaluated with rigorous studies.
