description: Cavity assisted quantum memory storage has been proposed [PRA 82, 022310 (2010), PRA 82, 022311 (2010)] for creating efficient (close to unity) quantum memories using weakly absorbing materials. Using this approach we experimentally demonstrate a significant (about 20-fold) enhancement in quantum memory efficiency compared to the no cavity case. A strong dispersion originating from absorption engineering inside the cavity was observed, which directly affect the cavity line-width. A more than 3 orders of magnitude reduction of cavity mode spacing and cavity line-width from GHz to MHz was observed. We are not aware of any previous observation of several orders of magnitudes cavity mode spacing and cavity line-width reduction due to slow light effects.

description: We demonstrate a kind of linear superposition for a large number of nonlinear equations, both continuum and discrete. In particular, we show that whenever a nonlinear equation admits solutions in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions $\cn(x,m)$ and $\dn(x,m)$, then it also admits solutions in terms of their sum as well as difference, i.e. $\dn(x,m) \pm \sqrt{m}\, \cn(x,m)$. Further, we also show that whenever a nonlinear equation admits a solution in terms of $\dn^2(x,m)$, it also has solutions in terms of $\dn^2(x,m) \pm \sqrt{m}\, \cn(x,m)\, \dn(x,m)$ even though $\cn(x,m)\, \dn(x,m)$ is not a solution of that nonlinear equation. Finally, we obtain similar superposed solutions in coupled theories.

description: Accurate and efficient simulation of excited state properties is an important and much aspired cornerstone in the study of adsorbate dynamics on metal surfaces. To this end, the recently proposed linear expansion ΔSelf-Consistent Field (leΔSCF) method by Gavnholt et al. [Phys. Rev. B 78, 075441 (2008)] presents an efficient alternative to time consuming quasi-particle calculations. In this method the standard Kohn-Sham equations of Density-Functional Theory are solved with the constraint of a non-equilibrium occupation in a region of Hilbert-space resembling gas-phase orbitals of the adsorbate. In this work we discuss the applicability of this method for the excited-state dynamics of metal-surface mounted organic adsorbates, specifically in the context of molecular switching. We present necessary advancements to allow for a consistent quality description of excited-state potential-energy surfaces (PESs), and illustrate the concept with the application to Azobenzene adsorbed on Ag(111) and Au(111) surfaces. We find that the explicit inclusion of substrate electronic states modifies the topologies of intra-molecular excited-state PESs of the molecule due to image charge and hybridization effects. While the molecule in gas phase shows a clear energetic separation of resonances that induce isomerization and backreaction, the surface-adsorbed molecule does not. The concomitant possibly simultaneous induction of both processes would lead to a significantly reduced switching efficiency of such a mechanism.

description: Within the combined potential of an optical lattice and a harmonic magnetic trap, it is possible to form matter wave packets by intensity modulation of the lattice. An analysis of the production and motion of these wave packets provides a detailed understanding of the dynamical evolution of the system. The modulation technique also allows for a controllable transfer (de-excitation) of atoms from such wave packets to a state bound by the lattice. Thus, it acts as a beam splitter for matter waves that can selectively address different bands, enabling the preparation of atoms in selected localized states. The combination of wave packet creation and de-excitation closely resembles the well-known method of pump-probe spectroscopy. Here, we use the de-excitation for precision spectroscopy of the anharmonicity of the magnetic trap. Finally, we demonstrate that lattice modulation can be used to excite matter wave packets to even higher momenta, producing fast wave packets with potential applications in precision measurements.

description: Process intensification (PI) is essential for a sustainable future since these techniques aid in increasing energy and process efficiency. One possibility to induce PI is via advanced reactor design. Oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) converts methane catalytically to ethylene, the most important bulk chemical in industry. As such, it could contribute to a sustainable carbon economy. One of the main hurdles in OCM reactor design is temperature control due to the high exothermicity linked to the overall reaction scheme. The gas-solid vortex reactor (GSVR) is a new vortex-type reactor that can aid in solving the challenges related to OCM due to its intense mixing characteristics. In the GSVR, a bed of fluidized particles is obtained in a centrifugal field by introducing the feed gas via tangential inlet slots. Momentum is transferred from the injected gas to the granular particles, leading to the rotation and fluidization of the particles. In this work, Euler-Lagrangian CFD modelling (CFD-DEM) is applied to study the mixing phenomena at reactive conditions, particularly segregation and dispersion, in detail within the GSVR. The high degree of dispersion, and related thermal back-mixing, within the GSVR could allow for autothermal operation of OCM, while segregation would allow operation with multiple catalyst types. These characteristics aid in improving future design of the GSVR and in understanding the bed hydrodynamics. Specifically, for segregation, the effect of particle distribution within the polydisperse bed, gas inlet velocity, particle diameter, particle density, and a combined effect is investigated. Dispersion within the bed is evaluated in both the radial and azimuthal direction. Herein, the effect of the gas flow rate and particle diameter is assessed.
Long-Range Rapidity Correlations in Heavy-Light Ion Collisions

description: We study two-particle long-range rapidity correlations arising in the early stages of heavy ion collisions in the saturation/Color Glass Condensate framework, assuming for simplicity that one colliding nucleus is much larger than the other. We calculate the two-gluon production cross section while including all-order saturation effects in the heavy nucleus with the lowest-order rescattering in the lighter nucleus. We find four types of correlations in the two-gluon production cross section: (i) geometric correlations, (ii) HBT correlations accompanied by a back-to-back maximum, (iii) away-side correlations, and (iv) near-side azimuthal correlations which are long-range in rapidity. The geometric correlations (i) are due to the fact that nucleons are correlated by simply being confined within the same nucleus and may lead to long-range rapidity correlations for the produced particles without strong azimuthal angle dependence. Somewhat surprisingly, long-range rapidity correlations (iii) and (iv) have exactly the same amplitudes along with azimuthal and rapidity shapes: one centered around Δϕ=π with the other one centered around Δϕ=0 (here Δϕ is the azimuthal angle between the two produced gluons). We thus observe that the early-time CGC dynamics in nucleus-nucleus collisions generates azimuthal non-flow correlations which are qualitatively different from jet correlations by being long-range in rapidity. If strong enough, they have the potential of mimicking the elliptic (and higher-order even-harmonic) flow in the di-hadron correlators: one may need to take them into account in the experimental determination of the flow observables.

description: Interactions of gauge-invariant systems are severely constrained by several consistency requirements. One is the preservation of the number of gauge symmetries, another is causal propagation. For lower-spin fields, the emphasis is usually put on gauge invariance that happens to be very selective by itself. We demonstrate with an explicit example, however, that gauge invariance, albeit indispensable for constructing interactions, may not suffice as a consistency condition. The chosen example that exhibits this feature is the theory of a massless spin-3/2 field coupled to electromagnetism. We show that this system admits an electromagnetic background in which the spin-3/2 gauge field may move faster than light. Requiring causal propagation rules out otherwise allowed gauge-invariant couplings. This emphasizes the importance of causality analysis as an independent test for a system of interacting gauge fields. We comment on the implications of allowing new degrees of freedom and non-locality in a theory, on higher-derivative gravity and Vasiliev's higher-spin theories.

description: Fractional scoring has been proposed to avoid inconsistencies in the attribution of publications to percentile rank classes. Uncertainties and ambiguities in the evaluation of percentile ranks can be demonstrated most easily with small datasets. But for larger datasets an often large number of papers with the same citation count leads to the same uncertainties and ambiguities which can be avoided by fractional scoring. This is demonstrated for four different empirical datasets with several thousand publications each which are assigned to 6 percentile rank classes. Only by utilizing fractional scoring the total score of all papers exactly reproduces the theoretical value in each case.

Investigation of the Orthogonal Degrees of Freedom in Protein-Drug Unbinding Pathways of the ABL Protein Using Replica Exchange Transition Interface Sampling
Creators: name: Vervust, Wouter
name: Ghysels, An
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Both thermodynamic selectivity and kinetic selectivity are important determinants for the in vivo efficacy of candidate drug molecules. Computational tools to predict thermodynamic and kinetic parameters are therefore necessary for the screening stage of the drug-design pipeline. As the timescale of most drug (un)binding processes is out of reach for conventional molecular dynamics simulations, specialized methodologies are needed to determine the (un)binding rates and residence times of protein-drug complexes. To assess the kinetics, most methods require the definition of a reaction coordinate that accurately describes the progression of the (un)binding process. As these (un)binding pathways are not known a priori, it is possible that free energy barriers are hidden along degrees of freedom (DoFs) that are orthogonal to the low-dimensional and user-defined reaction coordinate, resulting in inaccurate kinetics.

 In this study, Replica Exchange Transition Interface Sampling (RETIS) [1] is used to investigate the orthogonal DoFs in the unbinding pathways of imatinib to the kinase protein ABL (wild type and mutated variants). RETIS is an exact path sampling method, which generates trajectories using shooting moves, and which accepts or rejects trajectories using a Monte Carlo algorithm. RETIS is reaction-coordinate independent and produces reactive trajectories as if they originated from a long molecular dynamics simulation. As such, the hidden energy barriers should be captured by the paths generated by RETIS, which will be presented here.

description: We propose a mechanism to obtain the generation of matter in the standard model. We start from the analysis of the $T^2/Z_N$ shifted orbifold with magnetic flux, which imposes a $Z_N$ symmetry on torus. We also consider several orbifolds such as $(T^2\times T^2)/Z_N$, $(T^2 \times T^2 \times T^2)/(Z_N \times Z_{N'})$ and $(T^2 \times T^2 \times T^2)/(Z_N \times Z_{N'} \times Z_{N"})$. On such orbifolds, we study the behavior of fermions in two different means, one is the operator formalism and the other is to analyze wave functions explicitly. For an interesting result, it is found that the number of zero-mode fermions is related to $N$ of the $Z_N$ symmetry. In other words, the generation of matter relates to the type of orbifolds. Moreover, we find that shifted orbifold models to realize three generations are, in general, severely restricted. For example, the three-generation model on the type of $M^4 \times (T^2 \times T^2)/Z_N$ is unique. One can also construct other types of three-generation orbifold models with rich flavor structure. Those results may bring us a realistic model with desired Yukawa structure.

Automatic Kinetic Model Generation: A Novel Modelling Approach for Liquid-Phase Processes

description: Current societal trends push for innovation and optimization of existing large-scale processes in the pursuit of a sustainable chemical industry. In the last decade, a substantial amount of progress has been made for predictive first principles-based models for numerous gas-phase processes. This is in contrast to the liquid phase, for which the construction of such detailed models has proven to be more challenging. As a case study, the liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone is investigated since it is an industrially relevant process to produce nylon-6 and nylon- 6,6. A new program is developed to aid liquid-phase model development, called ALKIMO, standing for “Automatic Liquid-phase Kinetic Modeller”. The purpose is to transform a gas-phase kinetic model into a liquid- phase model by adding additional phenomena present in the liquid phase. Two effects are considered, the (de)stabilizing effect of dissolution and the diffusional limitations present in condensed phases. The effect of dissolution is modelled using the Gibbs free energy of solvation. This is calculated using the Volume- Translated Peng-Robinson Equation of State, which can be calculated using available group contribution methods. The predicted solvation energies in cyclohexane are compared with the experimental results of the CompSol database, resulting in a root mean square deviation of 1.23 kJ/mol. Diffusional limitations were also calculated based on empirical equations and group contribution methods. These proved to play a significant factor in the liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane as a substancial percentage (~21%) of the reactions are diffusion limited. Bringing all these advancements together will enable to construct a new reliable microkinetic model to describe the liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane.

description: Most queueing models and their analysis have a rich history and follow a process of increased generality and complexity. In this paper, we introduce a new model, namely a multi-class queueing model where service times depend on the presence of one of the classes. Our model is motivated by road traffic, where the presence of heavy vehicles in a queue slows down the entire system, or, in contrast, where the presence of emergency vehicles may speed up the service. The specific assumption we impose is that the service time of each customer depends on whether at least one customer of that particular class is present in the system at the time of service. Although we study a fairly simple discrete-time model, we show that analysis is not straightforward. Furthermore, numerical examples expose that the impact of particular customers in the system can lead to a substantial slow down (or, in contrast, speed up) of the entire system.

Full-Field Measurement of Strain and Temperature in Tensile Testing of Short Fibre-Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites
Creators: name: Finazzi, Daniele
name: Sevenois, Ruben
name: Van Paepegem, Wim
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Short fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composites are increasingly popular in the automotive industry thanks to low cost, short cycle times and recyclability. They can be easily injection-moulded into complex shapes. However, compared with thermoset composites or metals, they are more sensitive to environmental and loading conditions. The aim of this study is to characterise the tensile behaviour of injection-moulded short glass fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 (PA6) under conditions that are representative of in-service applications. This is done by varying fibre orientation, temperature, humidity, and strain rate.
 The material is heterogeneous and has a complex microstructure. This calls for a dedicated measurement setup during tensile testing. Strains are mapped full-field on the specimen surface by means of stereo digital image correlation (DIC). An infrared (IR) camera is synchronised and calibrated together with the DIC cameras, so that the temperature field can also be tracked on the deformed surface. This gives insights into coupled thermo-mechanical phenomena like self-heating due to plastic dissipation, enabling correct interpretation of the material response.
 This technique could prove equally suitable for cyclic loading and other classes of materials, when inhomogeneous strain fields and thermal effects are likely or expected to occur.

description: The observations on galaxy rotation curves show significant discrepancies from the Newtonian theory. This issue could be explained by the effect of the anisotropy of the spacetime. Conversely, the spacetime anisotropy could also be constrained by the galaxy rotation curves. Finsler geometry is a kind of intrinsically anisotropic geometry. In this paper, we study the effect of the spacetime anisotropy at the galactic scales in the Finsler spacetime. It is found that the Finslerian model has close relations with the Milgrom's MOND. By performing the best-fit procedure to the galaxy rotation curves, we find that the anisotropic effects of the spacetime become significant when the Newtonian acceleration \(GM/r^2\) is smaller than the critical acceleration \(a_0\). Interestingly, the critical acceleration \(a_0\), although varies between different galaxies, is in the order of magnitude \(cH_0/2π\sim 10^{-10} \rm{m\,\, s^{-2}}\).

description: We derive some nonequilibrium identities such as the integral fluctuation theorem and the Jarzynski equality starting from a nonequilibrium state for dissipative classical systems. Thanks to the existence of the integral fluctuation theorem we can naturally introduce an entropy-like quantity for dissipative classical systems in far from equilibrium states. We also derive the generalized Green-Kubo formula as a nonlinear response theory for a steady dynamics around a nonequilibrium state. We numerically verify the validity of the derived formulas for sheared frictionless granular particles.

description: Crisis. A word that today fills all news headlines worldwide. For each person, the word crisis will refer to something different. Some persons will connect it with an economic crisis that has a direct impact on their household budget. For others, it's about a war crisis that made them refugees overnight. Some will think primarily of an energy crisis, where others will immediately think of the Covid-19 crisis that brought sickness and death to the family. There will also be those who link crisis to a very personal existential experience: an experience that will not make the headlines but that can just as easily determine the course of life.

description: Cooperative multi-agent manipulation systems allow to extend on the manipulative limitations of individual agents, increasing the complexity of the manipulation tasks the ensemble can handle. Controlling such a system requires meticulous planning of subsequent subtasks, queried to the individual agents, in order to execute the master task successfully. Real-time (re)planning is essential to ensure the task can still be achieved when subtasks execution suffers from uncertainty or when the master task changes intermittently requiring real-time reconfiguration of the plan. In this work we develop a supervisory control architecture tailored to the cooperation of two robotic manipulators equipped with standard pick-and-place facilities in the plane. We control the planar position and orientation of an object using two underactuated manipulators so that only the position of the object can be controlled directly. The desired orientation follows from the accumulation of alternating relative angles. A time-invariant policy function is trained using deep reinforcement learning, which can determine a finite sequence of pick-and-place maneuvers to manipulate the object to a desired configuration. Two policy architectures are compared. The first uses the kinematic model to determine the final step, whilst the second policy makes this decision itself. The more information is given to the policy the easier it trains. In return, it becomes less adaptable and loses some of its generalisability.

description: We study the effect of the density-dependent axial and vector form factors on the electro-neutrino ($ν_e$) and anti-neutrino $({\bar ν}_e)$ reactions for a nucleon in nuclear matter or in $^{12}$C. The nucleon form factors in free space are presumed to be modified for a bound nucleon in a nuclear medium. We adopt the density-dependent form factors calculated by the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, and apply them to the $ν_e$ and ${\bar ν}_e$ induced reactions with the initial energy $E = $ 8 $\sim$ 80 MeV. We find that the total $ν_e$ cross sections on $^{12}$C as well as a nucleon in nuclear matter are reduced by about 5% at the nuclear saturation density, $ρ_0$. This reduction is caused by the modification of the nucleon structure in matter. Although the density effect for both cases is relatively small, it is comparable with the effect of Coulomb distortion on the outgoing lepton in the $ν$-reaction. In contrast, the density effect on the ${\bar ν}_e$ reaction reduces the cross section significantly in both nuclear matter and $^{12}$C cases, and the amount maximally becomes of about 35% around $ρ_0$. Such large asymmetry in the $ν_e$ and ${\bar ν}_e$ cross sections, which seems to be nearly independent of the target, is originated from the difference in the helicities of ${\bar ν}_e$ and $ν_e$. It is expected that the asymmetry influences the r-process and also the neutrino-process nucleosynthesis in core-collapse supernovae.

Multi-Scale Modelling of Oil Lubricated Contacts in Machine Elements

description: In this study, the numerical modelling of the Thermo-Elasto-Hydrodynamic Lubrication (TEHL) contact is investigated. Flow model, structure, and lubricant rheology models have been developed in the OpenFOAM (extend version) package. Regarding complex and cavitating flow in TEHL contact, a Homogeneous Equilibrium Model (HEM) is used, including the thermal effect and variation in lubricant properties due to pressure, temperature, and shear rate. Also, the Molecular Dynamic (MD) can be employed to calculate the density and viscosity as a function of state variables and shear rate. Besides the linear elastic equation, the heat conduction equation is solved to describe the solid deformation and temperature distribution in the solid domain. Furthermore, a partitioned Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) methodology is employed to make a two-way coupling between fluid and solid regions. Also, along with FSI modelling, a Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) simulation is essential to precisely investigate the thermal behaviour of TEHL contacts. The developed TEHL model properly shows the involved physics in comparison with acceptable data for rolling-sliding 2D line contacts from the literature and provides trustworthy results in different operating conditions for 2D/3D smooth and rough contacts.

description: When confronting popular notions that treat migration as a crisis, there is an impulse to offer a theologically proper response. The discussion in this chapter centers on the question: which new questions may arise upon a critical engagement with hospitality theologies when applied for migration dynamics from the perspective of faithful connections? Four theologians each contribute to the discussion from their own area of experience and expertise. Amy Casteel, brings in the perspective of pastoral work among refugee communities in the United States along with her research focuses on lived religion among adolescents who have migrated to Europe. Néstor Medina offered a view from his research in ethics and liberation and post/decolonial theological debates, and experience as an immigrant himself in the North American context. From a missiological perspective, Dorottya Nagy brought her insights out of her research and experience on migration in/to Europe. Starting from decolonial theology, thinking about migration from the standpoint of heterotopic spaces, Kaia Rønsdal offered a view on migration from borderlands, particularly of Northern Europe. Throughout this chapter, quotations from the transcript of that panel are identified with the name of the speaker in the text and noted as (panel 2021).

description: Extensions of the Standard Model Higgs sector involving weak isotriplet scalars are not only benchmark candidates to reconcile observed anomalies of the recently discovered Higgs-like particle, but also exhibit a vast parameter space, for which the lightest Higgs' phenomenology turns out to be very similar to the Standard Model one. A generic prediction of this model class is the appearance of exotic doubly charged scalar particles. In this paper we adapt existing dilepton+missing energy+jets measurements in the context of SUSY searches to the dominant decay mode $H^{\pm\pm}\to W^\pm W^\pm$ and find that the LHC already starts probing the model's parameter space. A simple modification towards signatures typical of weak boson fusion searches allows us to formulate even tighter constraints with the 7 TeV LHC data set. A corresponding analysis of this channel performed at 14 TeV center of mass energy will constrain the model over the entire parameter space and facilitate potential $H^{\pm\pm}\to W^\pm W^\pm$ discoveries.

Crisis as displacement and opportunity
Creators: name: Rao, Tulimelli Srinivasa
Publisher: name: International Academy of Practical Theology. Conference Series

description: Major crises, such as wars, change the foundations of societies, families, traditions and morals. This is applicable to the war-torn country of South Sudan and to the women who have been displaced and forced into refugee camps. War creates fear, grief, anxiety and trauma. At the same time, it can also lead to effective positive action and create an awareness of social discontent in relation to existing institutionalizations. War can lead towards creating social change, ammunition for hope, empowerment, and liberation. Women have been taking these positive opportunities and are increasingly becoming agents for change in the camps. They have become community builders and peace makers. The next question is then how these changes that women make in the camps, can be consolidated into social and religious structures. Prior to the crisis, political, religious, and tribal male leaders elevated themselves as kings and chiefs. With the present crisis however, there is a call for a service-oriented leadership. This study advocates for an integration of the voices and experiences of women who are in camps. Their experiences and expressions of faith have a contribution to make in the way we talk and reflect on theology and society. In this context, the concept of service-leadership needs to further empower the society, where dignity is denied. There is a call to consolidate the practice of community and peace building together with women in camps.
