description: The objective of this paper is all-angle artificial magnetic conductor, i.e. artificial magnetic conductor that has stable magnetic-wall effect with respect to the incidence angle. Furthermore, we seek for a design that would be easy for manufacturing. In order to achieve this we use grounded uniaxial material slabs and we do not constrict ourselves to naturally available materials. Instead, we assume that the desired parameters can be synthesized using the emerging artificial electromagnetic materials. It is found that it is possible to have an all-angle magnetic-wall effect for both TE and TM polarization. Especially for the TM fields the structure would be easily manufacturable. The proposed structure has similar appearance as more well-known artificial impedance surfaces, but the design parameters and the physical properties behind the magnetic wall effect are novel. The performance of the proposed artificial magnetic conductor is verified with numerical simulations. This paper introduces a new approach how to obtain a magnetic-wall effect. It is possible to use this this approach also together with other ways of obtaining the magnetic-wall effect for dual-band operation.

description: Hyperspectral target detection is a task of primary importance in remote sensing since it allows identification, location, and discrimination of target features. To this end, the reflectance maps, which contain the spectral signatures and related abundances of the materials in the observed scene, are often used. However, due to the low spatial resolution of most hyperspectral sensors, targets occupy a fraction of the pixel and, hence, the spectra of different sub-pixel targets (including the background spectrum) are mixed together within the same pixel. To solve this issue, in this paper, we adopt a generalized replacement model accounting for multiple sub-pixel target spectra and formulate the detection problem at hand as a binary hypothesis test where under the alternative hypothesis the target is modeled in terms of a linear combination of endmembers whose coefficients also account for the presence of the background. Then, we devise detection architectures based upon the generalized likelihood ratio test where the unknown parameters are suitably estimated through procedures inspired by the maximum likelihood approach. The performances of the proposed decision schemes are evaluated by means of both synthetic as well as real data and compared with an analogous counterpart by showing the effectiveness of the proposed procedure.

description: To determine whether a given multipartite quantum state is separable with respect to some partition we construct a family of entanglement measures R_m. This is done utilizing generalized concurrences as building blocks which are defined by flipping of M constituents and indicate states that are separable with regard to bipartitions when vanishing. Further, we provide an analytically computable lower bound for R_m via a simple ordering relation of the convex roof extension. Using the derived lower bound, we illustrate the effect of the isotropic noise on a family of four-qubit mixed states for each intermediate separability.

description: We made high-resolution spectroscopic observations of limb-spicules in H-alpha using the Vertical Spectrograph of Domeless Solar Telescope at Hida Observatory. While more than half of the observed spicules have Gaussian line-profiles, some spicules have distinctly asymmetric profiles which can be fitted with two Gaussian components. The faster of these components has radial velocities of 10 - 40 km/s and Doppler-widths of about 0.4 A which suggest that it is from a single spicule oriented nearly along the line-of-sight. Profiles of the slower components and the single-Gaussian type show very similar characteristics. Their radial velocities are less than 10 km/s and the Doppler-widths are 0.6 - 0.9 A. Non-thermal "macroturbulent" velocities of order 30 km/s are required to explain these width-values.

description: One of the major objectives of every farmer, rancher, or feedlot operator is that of trying to maximize profits by marketing their cattle for greatest net returns. For this reason, it is very important at which market the producer decides to sell his cattle, Local supply and demand conditions are constantly causing prices and price differentials between markets to fluctuate, making the decision of choosing the market which will yield the greatest net return rather difficult.
title: A Comparison of Cock Pheasant Harvests Among Areas Having Different Hunting Pressures, Cache County, Utah
Creators: name: Bartonek, James C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1962

description: Parsons (1953) found Utah's posted hunting unit system regulated hunting pressures over much of the state's pheasant range. He found inequalities of hunting, pressure among the posted hunting units because of their individualistic methods used to determine the number of hunting permits to be sold. Utah State Department of Fish and Game personnel recommend the number of permits to be sold by the hunting unit; but often, the hunting unit officers use the desired level of hunting pressure, size of cock harvest, and revenue from permit sales as decisive factors. By regulating hunting pressure on their own lands, the posted hunting units thereby regulate the hunting pressure on adjacent nonposted lands by excluding the supernumerary hunters from their units.

description: Teachers have noticed that children draw only those objects which they know by name. Doubtless the adult has a similar tendency, exemplified by the researcher, to limit his observations or to relate them to that which can be expressed in the terminology of an existing or newly developed theory. In this thesis the data obtained from studies of the temperature and pressure dependence of the relative vapor pressure over moist soil samples are analyzed by a thermodynamic approach. Not all of the results can be explained completely by means of this tool. Natural systems, such as a moist soil, are probably too complex for any single theory; but since the language of thermodynamics provides the best-known means of conveying the results to others, it is felt that this language should be used throughout the thesis.

description: Higher-dimensional models of grand unification allow us to relate the top Yukawa coupling y_t to the gauge coupling g. The tree level relation y_t=g at the scale of grand unification implies, in the framework of the MSSM, a rather small ratio of Higgs expectation values tan beta. We find that, in the presence of localized Fayet-Iliopoulos terms, y_t is suppressed against g because the bulk fields acquire non-trivial profiles whose overlap is smaller than in the case of flat profiles. This increases the prediction for tan beta to moderately large values. Thus tan beta is related to the geometry of compact space. We also discuss explicit realizations of such settings in orbifold compactifications of the heterotic string. It turns out that anisotropic compactifications, allowing for an orbifold GUT interpretation, are favored.

description: $^{23}$Na spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates are used to experimentally demonstrate that mean-field physics beyond the single-mode approximation can be relevant during the non-equilibrium dynamics. The experimentally observed spin oscillation dynamics and associated dynamical spatial structure formation confirm theoretical predictions that are derived by solving a set of coupled mean-field Gross-Pitaevskii equations [J. Jie et al., Phys. Rev. A 102, 023324 (2020)]. The experiments rely on microwave dressing of the $f=1$ hyperfine states, where $f$ denotes the total angular momentum of the $^{23}$Na atom. The fact that beyond single-mode approximation physics at the mean-field level, i.e., spatial mean-field dynamics that distinguishes the spatial density profiles associated with different Zeeman levels, can -- in certain parameter regimes -- have a pronounced effect on the dynamics when the spin healing length is comparable to or larger than the size of the Bose-Einstein condensate has implications for using Bose-Einstein condensates as models for quantum phase transitions and spin squeezing studies as well as for non-linear SU(1,1) interferometers.

Year: 2011

description: The density of the animals forming the bottom fauna of Paul Lake, British Columbia has been estimated for two successive seasons, based on 250 Ekman dredge samples from all zones for each year. After the sampling of the first year, the lake was treated with .004 p.p.m. Toxaphene. Density changes in the invertebrate population were considered on the basis of increase, decrease and changes in zonal distribution. Following poisoning and elimination of predatory fish, density increases occurred in the Physidae, Lymnae-idae, Oligochaeta, Planoribae, and Hirudinea. Density decreases occurred in the Watermites, Amphipods, Chiron-omidae, Planaria, Sphaeriidae and Odonata. Tricoptera, Ephemeroptera and Ceratopogonidae were not taken in any of the samples after poisoning.

description: We present a simple formula for the effective ringdown frequencies of the gravitational-wave signal of a precessing black-hole binary in the co-precessing frame. This formula requires only knowledge of the quasi-normal mode frequencies of the system and the value of the precession angle $β$ during ringdown. Such a formula will be useful in modelling precessing systems. We also provide a comprehensive description of the oscillations in the ringdown frequency in an inertial frame where the spin of the final black hole is in the $z$-direction. These oscillations arise due to the superposition of the prograde and retrograde frequencies. Our understanding of these oscillations can be used to extract the ratio of the amplitudes of the prograde and retrograde frequencies from numerical data. Alternatively, knowledge of this ratio of the amplitudes can be used to produce a simple model of the time domain oscillations in the ringdown frequency.

A regional study of social welfare measurements : no. 4 (Vancouver Island) : an exploration of the regional assessment of demographic and social welfare statistics for British Columbia, 1951-1961
Creators: name: Cumming, Robert Coulter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study of social welfare measurements in Region I (Vancouver Island) is the fourth in a series of regional assessments. A similar study of Region VI (The Okanagan) is presently being completed. Three previous studies have been done; one in an unorganized area of Northern British Columbia, the second Region III (The Fraser Valley), and the third was a comprehensive study of Metropolitan Vancouver including several of the surrounding districts. Region I of the Department of Social Welfare very closely coincides with census division 5 of British Columbia. This has overcome the discrepancy that often exists between census material boundaries and welfare regional boundaries. Census division 5 actually includes some islands and isolated areas of the north coast of British Columbia lying adjacent to Vancouver Island. These areas are very sparsely populated and are more readily accessible from the mainland than from Vancouver Island, and are therefore not included in Welfare Region I. Basic statistical data was compiled and computed from the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. Extensive use was made of 1961 data with selective reference being made to the 1951 data available. In some instances the census subdivision boundaries were changed within the bench work decade (1951-1961). Therefore some of the changes in social and economic conditions could not be measured. In these instances it was necessary to rely on the 1961 data. The welfare statistics were compiled primarily from the monthly reports of the Provincial Department of Social Welfare for the years 1951 and 1961. However, in Metropolitan Victoria there are numerous private social agencies and one major one serving families and children. This latter was chosen to examine more fully the welfare services offered in this area. This is an initial exploratory study of Vancouver Island as a welfare region. Further studies in detail of the kind initiated in Nanaimo to measure the appropriateness and effectiveness of welfare services should be carried out. These would provide information for comprehensive planning for the welfare needs of the people who live in this region.

description: As an Italian, with less than a year in the Western Hemisphere, I now find myself with a “mixed” personality. As someone else expressed it, " I am physically Italian, Latin American by adoption, and gaily American. This may well be a good combination for writing a thesis on Latin America. My "Latin blood" may help me in understanding the mentality of the people of Latin America, while my studies in Italy--a country with a long experience as an underdeveloped country- -may contribute toward a personal understanding of the problems of poverty, social injustice, and political instability. Three months of experience in Mexico, at the Utah State University "branch;' in Mexico City, permitted first-hand observation of the problems, and direct contact with some of the people who are trying to resolve them. Finally, having been a student at Utah State University has improved my understanding of the great tradition of freedom in the United States. It also stimulated personal reflections on democracy that add much to my philosophy of life. This opportunity, added to a very pleasant and serene life in a delightful region in the West, make me sincerely and profoundly grateful to the people of Utah.

description: Neural quantum states are a new family of variational ansätze for quantum-many body wave functions with advantageous properties in the notoriously challenging case of two spatial dimensions. Since their introduction a wide variety of different network architectures has been employed to study paradigmatic models in quantum many-body physics with a particular focus on quantum spin models. Nonetheless, many questions remain about the effect that the choice of architecture has on the performance on a given task. In this work, we present a unified comparison of a selection of popular network architectures and symmetrization schemes employed for ground state searches of prototypical spin Hamiltonians, namely the two-dimensional transverse-field Ising model and the J1-J2 model. In the presence of a non-trivial sign structure of the ground states, we find that the details of symmetrization crucially influence the performance. We describe this effect in detail and discuss its consequences, especially for autoregressive models, as their direct sampling procedure is not compatible with the symmetrization procedure that we found to be optimal.

description: The radiation climate of Cache Valley was established f rom the continuous recordings of global and diffuse sky radiation at Utah State University campus from June 1968 to July 1969 and August 1968 to July 1969, respectively. The influence of topographic features during summer and winter conditions a t seven representative locations running on an east-west direction across the valley were determined by making short term measurements on clear days.
A comparison of the clear day average global radiation on approximate dates of the same solar declination shows higher values during late winter and spring than t he values during late summer and autumn. This is mainly the influence of the higher atmospheric water vapor during the warmer months. An interesting fact is, that not only the direct , but also the scattered radiation shows higher values during the spring months . This is caused by additional reflection from the snow-covered mountain slopes . In the curve showing the distribution of the diffuse sky radiation on completely cloudy days, the effect of the multiple reflection between the ground surface and t he bases of clouds is very prominent in the period when there is snow on the ground.

In a mountain valley like Cache Valley, the difference in climate between the two opposite sides can largely be attributed to differences in the amounts of radiation received. This study was conducted on a scale where the incoming solar radiation may be influenced by topographic features.

description: The German wasp (Vespula germanica) is a highly successful invader on a global scale. These wasps were first observed in the Western Cape region in South Africa in 1972, and they have the potential to expand their range and cause significant damage to the native biodiversity. Our study used nuclear (DNA microsatellites) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from 42 wasp colonies to analyse the population genetics of V. germanica in their invaded South African range. We sequenced three mitochondrial genes; cytochrome c oxidase I, cytochrome b and cytochrome c oxidase II. We found six mtDNA haplotypes present in South Africa. Although only a single fertilized queen is sufficient for the establishment of a wasp nest, the probability of a single introduced queen to successfully establish a nest and a population is very small. If multiple queens were introduced at the same time, the probability for more than one haplotype being transferred to the new population increases. Therefore, the true number of queen introductions occurred in South Africa can be inferred to be between two and six. We examined nine microsatellite loci and found weak-to-no genetic sub-structuring, likely due to high dispersal rates. We concluded that German wasps in South Africa maintain a homogenous population with movement of individuals between localities.

On the infrared coincidence: what is the jet contribution to the X-ray power law in GX 339-4?

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: The hard X-ray power law, prominent in the hard state in black hole X-ray binaries, is generally due to thermal Comptonization in the corona. Optically thin synchrotron emission from compact jets is commonly seen at infrared wavelengths in the hard state. The extent of this spectrum to higher energies remains uncertain. Here, a multi-wavelength study of GX 339-4 is presented. The IR to X-ray spectral index is measured and compared to the X-ray spectral index fitted separately. On some dates in which the jet dominates the IR emission, the X-ray power law and the IR to X-ray power law spectral indices are both in the range alpha = -0.7 +/- 0.2 (where F_nu ~ nu^alpha), i.e. photon index, Gamma = 1.7 +/- 0.2. This suggests they could be the same power law with the same origin, or that this is a coincidence. On other dates in the hard state, alpha_{IR-X} < alpha_{X}, ruling out a common origin. It is likely that Comptonization dominates on most dates, as expected. However, the X-ray power law never appears to be fainter than the jet power law extrapolated from IR to X-ray, implying that the jet contribution imposes a lower limit to the X-ray flux. If confirmed, this would imply the cooling break in the synchrotron spectrum probably resides at X-ray or higher energies. It is suggested that X-ray spectral fitting should include an extra power law with a break (ideally fit to IR too).

description: We study N=2, d=4 attractor equations for the quantum corrected two-moduli prepotential $\mathcal{F}=st^2+iλ$, with $λ$ real, which is the only correction which preserves the axion shift symmetry and modifies the geometry. In the classical case the black hole effective potential is known to have a flat direction. We found that in the presence of D0-D6 branes the black hole potential exhibits a flat direction in the quantum case as well. It corresponds to non-BPS $Z\neq 0$ solutions to the attractor equations. Unlike the classical case, the solutions acquire non-zero values of the axion field. For the cases of D0-D4 and D2-D6 branes the classical flat direction reduces to separate critical points which turn out to have a vanishing axion field.

description: Binary black holes emit gravitational waves as they inspiral towards coalescence. Searches for electromagnetic counterparts to these gravitational waves rely on looking for common sources producing both signals. In this paper, we take a different approach: we investigate the impact of radiation zone effects, including retardation effects and gravitational wave propagation onto the circumbinary disk around stellar-mass, spinning black holes, using general relativistic hydrodynamical simulations. Then we used a general relativistic ray-tracing code to extract its X-ray spectrum and lightcurve. This allowed us to show that radiation zone effects leave an imprint onto the disk, leading to quasi-periodic patterns in the X-ray lightcurve. The amplitude of the modulation is weak (<1%) but increases with time and is strongly dependent on the inclination angle.

Model-independent Evidence for an Increase in the Mean Mass of Cosmic Rays above 3 EeV

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: Measurements of the Elongation Rate of the depth of shower maximum above 1 EeV are reviewed. There is evidence, from four independent estimates of this rate, made in the two hemispheres using three different techniques, for a decrease in the Elongation Rate above ~3 EeV, as first discovered by the Pierre Auger Collaboration over 15 year ago. Unless there is a dramatic change in the hadronic physics above this energy, the mean mass of the primary cosmic rays must increase as a function of energy, well into the decade beyond 10 EeV. To estimate the mass, the use of hadronic models is required, the accuracy of which remains uncertain. However, the possibility of a dramatic change in the hadronic physics appears unlikely, and would be inconsistent with data from the Auger Collaboration on the mass composition in the range 3 to 10 EeV, and on the anisotropy of arrival directions above 8 EeV. Both of these conclusions are insensitive to uncertainties in the shower models. Some remarks are made about the belief, still firmly held by some, that the highest-energy cosmic rays are dominantly protons.

description: Enteroviiruste ringlust uuriti Eestis süstemaatiliselt 1960. aastatel poliomüeliidi likvideerimise ja sellele järgnenud viroloogilise seire raames. Polioviiruste avastamiseks uuriti rohkearvuliselt nii haigetelt kui tervetelt inimestelt ja väliskeskkonnast võetud proove. Selgus, et pärast elanike lausvaktsineerimist lakkas polioviiruste ringlus, kuid teiste enteroviiruste (Coxsackie A, Coxsackie B, ECHO) ringlus püsis. Järgnenud aastatel uuriti enamasti haigeid diagnostilisel sihil. Tänu sellele on õnnestunud avastada enteroviirustest põhjustatud haiguspuhanguid. Alljärgnevalt ongi kirjeldatud 2002. a esinenud ECHO 6-viirusnakkuse puhangut.

Simulation of a spatially correlated turbulent velocity field using biorthogonal decomposition
Creators: name: Hémon, Pascal

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper presents a method for generating a turbulent velocity field that can be used as an input for the temporal simulation in wind excited structure problems. Temporal simulations become necessary when nonlinear behaviour, in the structure or in aeroelastic forces, must be accounted for. The main difficulty is then to reproduce correctly the statistical properties of the atmospheric turbulence, especially the spatial correlation. These properties constitute here the targets that the generated signal has to satisfy. We propose to use the biorthogonal decomposition technique which possesses interesting features to reach this objective, notably the space-time symmetry. Moreover, the convergence in energy is obtained rapidly with few terms of the decomposition, particularly in the low frequency range. Thus the method is found suitable for application to large civil engineering structures, such as bridges. Examples are provided for two different kinds of wind.

description: The Potts model with invisible states was introduced to explain discrepancies between theoretical predictions and experimental observations of phase transitions in some systems where $Z_q$ symmetry is spontaneously broken. It differs from the ordinary $q$-state Potts model in that each spin, besides the usual $q$ visible states, can be also in any of $r$ so-called invisible states. Spins in an invisible state do not interact with their neighbours but they do contribute to the entropy of the system. As a consequence, an increase in $r$ may cause a phase transition to change from second to first order. Potts models with invisible states describe a number of systems of interest in physics and beyond and have been treated by various tools of statistical and mathematical physics. In this paper we aim to give a review of this fundamental topic.

A stochastic search for intermittent gravitational-wave backgrounds

description: A likely source of a gravitational-wave background (GWB) in the frequency band of the Advanced LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA detectors is the superposition of signals from the population of unresolvable stellar-mass binary-black-hole (BBH) mergers throughout the Universe. Since the duration of a BBH merger in band ($\sim\!1~{\rm s}$) is much shorter than the expected separation between neighboring mergers ($\sim\!10^3~{\rm s}$), the observed signal will be "popcorn-like" or intermittent with duty cycles of order $10^{-3}$. However, the standard cross-correlation search for stochastic GWBs currently performed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration is based on a continuous-Gaussian signal model, which does not take into account the intermittent nature of the background. The latter is better described by a Gaussian mixture-model, which includes a duty cycle parameter that quantifies the degree of intermittence. Building on an earlier paper by Drasco and Flanagan, we propose a stochastic-signal-based search for intermittent GWBs. For such signals, this search performs better than the standard continuous cross-correlation search. We present results of our stochastic-signal-based approach for intermittent GWBs applied to simulated data for some simple models, and compare its performance to the other search methods, both in terms of detection and signal characterization. Additional testing on more realistic simulated data sets, e.g., consisting of astrophysically-motivated BBH merger signals injected into colored detector noise containing noise transients, will be needed before this method can be applied with confidence on real gravitational-wave data.
