Conceptualizing tunes: avant-textes, referents, and the analysis of musical structure in jazz
Creators: name: Smither, Sean R.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: The ontological status of jazz tunes is a fraught topic that has generated much philosophical and analytical debate. A given tune may be represented by many lead sheets, each one different from the last in its representation of the tune’s melody and chord changes. Performances of tunes are even more diverse: musicians realize harmonies differently, substitute and interpolate chords, interpret the head melody differently, solo extensively over the chord changes, and so on. When analyzing a jazz tune, it is therefore difficult to determine exactly what is being analyzed. The entire concept of the jazz tune is underlain by a paradox: on the one hand, there is a singularity -- "the tune" -- generally understood to be a musical structure or scheme comprised of constellations of harmonic, melodic, and formal features; on the other hand, there is a multiplicity of versions of the tune, manifest in performances and recordings by countless musicians and ensembles and as printed lead sheets, transcriptions, and arrangements. A sufficient understanding of the jazz tune requires us to engage tunes as both singularities and multiplicities, situating tunes as the products of various poietic and esthesic processes. In this dissertation, I develop a cyclical, processual model of the jazz tune. My model begins with a multiplicitous network of existing versions of a tune. Borrowing terminology from sketch studies and the literary field of genetic criticism, I call this network of documents an "avant-texte." By analyzing the relations between various versions of a given tune, we can gain a sense of the overlapping contexts that inform an improviser’s conception of the tune. Improvisers become familiar with one or multiple versions from the avant-texte and form a referent for the piece, prototypes consisting of various kinds of musico-structural features and levels of defaults. When features are shared between referents, they often represent stock schemata that can be used to more quickly grasp the structure of many different tunes. Referents and their component schemata are subjective mappings of musical structure that capture some of the flexibility inherent in prototypes. Improvisers use these mappings in the moment of improvisation as part of an ongoing negotiation of musical structure. The resulting improvisation represents a new version of the tune, which in turn may become part of the tune’s avant-texte network. In order to engage with all aspects of this model, I advocate for a method of analysis that accounts for the varied subjective views that help construct a jazz tune’s perceived identity.

description: We analyze the nuclear stellar dynamics of the SB0 galaxy NGC 1023, utilizing observational data both from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph aboard the Hubble Space Telescope and from the ground. The stellar kinematics measured from these long-slit spectra show rapid rotation (V = 70 km/s at a distance of 0.1 arcsec = 4.9 pc from the nucleus) and increasing velocity dispersion toward the nucleus (where sigma = 295 +/- 30 km/s). We model the observed stellar kinematics assuming an axisymmetric mass distribution with both two and three integrals of motion. Both modeling techniques point to the presence of a central dark compact mass (which presumably is a supermassive black hole) with confidence > 99%. The isotropic two-integral models yield a best-fitting black hole mass of (6.0 +/- 1.4) x 10^7 M_sun and mass-to-light ratio (M/L_V) of 5.38 +/- 0.08, and the goodness-of-fit (chi^2) is insensitive to reasonable values for the galaxy's inclination. The three-integral models, which non-parametrically fit the observed line-of-sight velocity distribution as a function of position in the galaxy, suggest a black hole mass of (3.9 +/- 0.4) x 10^7 M_sun and M/L_V of 5.56 +/- 0.02 (internal errors), and the edge-on models are vastly superior fits over models at other inclinations. The internal dynamics in NGC 1023 as suggested by our best-fit three-integral model shows that the velocity distribution function at the nucleus is tangentially anisotropic, suggesting the presence of a nuclear stellar disk. The nuclear line of sight velocity distribution has enhanced wings at velocities >= 600 km/s from systemic, suggesting that perhaps we have detected a group of stars very close to the central dark mass.

The isolated, uniformly moving electron: Selfintersecting SU(2) Yang-Mills center vortex loop and Louis de Broglie's hidden thermodynamics

Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)

description: We propose that the one-fold selfintersecting center-vortex loop, being the stable excitation in the confining phase of SU(2) Yang-Mills thermodynamics of scale $Λ\sim 0.5\,$MeV, after an electric-magnetically dual interpretation of this theory represents the electron/positron. Our argument invokes recent results on the physics of a strongly and spherically perturbed 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole, the role of the central spatial region in a Harrington-Shepard (HS) (anti)caloron, the latter's deformation towards maximally non-trivial holonomy and subsequent dissociation into a pair of a screened BPS monopole and antimonopole, the energy-density of the deconfining thermal ground state, and the critical temperature $T_c$ for the deconfining-preconfining transition. We estimate the typical spatial extent of the selfintersection region and the monopole core size, implying that the electron/positron, judged by its Compton wave length, is anything but a point particle. Our results support and elucidate the ideas of Louis de Broglie on the thermodynamics of an isolated particle.

description: In eukaryotic cells, motor proteins (MP) bind to cytoskeletal filaments and move along them in a directed manner generating active stresses. During cell division a spindle structure of overlapping antiparallel microtubules (MT) form whose stability and dynamics under the influence of MPs has been studied extensively. Although passive cross linkers (PCL) were known to provide structural stability to filamentous network, consequences of the interplay between ATP dependent active forces of MPs and passive entropic forces of PCLs on MT overlap remains largely unexplored. Here, we formulate and characterize a model to study this, using linear stability analysis and numerical integration. In presence of PCLs, we find dynamic phase transitions with changing activity exhibiting regimes of stable partial overlap with or without oscillations, instability towards complete overlap, and stable limit cycle oscillations that emerge via a supercritical Hopf bifurcation characterized by an oscillation frequency determined by the MP and PCL parameters. We show that the overlap dynamics and stability depend crucially on whether both the MTs of overlapping pair are movable or one is immobilized, having potential implications for in vivo and in vitro studies.

Using the temperature-window fitting technique, we obtained the critical exponents which agreed with the three-dimensional (3D) Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) universality class at both sides of the lower critical field and the saturation field. 3-Br-4-F-V thus becomes a new member of the quantum magnets which prove the universality of the 3D BEC exponent.

description: Hamiltonians whose symbols are not simply real valued, but matrix or, more generally, endomorphism valued functions appear in many places in physics, examples being the Dirac equation, multicomponent wave equations like electrodynamics in media, and Yang-Mills theories, and the Born-Oppenheimer approximation in molecular physics. The aim of this paper is to give a completely geometric approach to the WKB approximation od such systems, and to reduce the problem ``as far as possible'' to the scalar case. A star-product formulation of quantum mechanics proves to be particularly useful in this context. As opposed to other approaches in the literature which restrict themselves to the use of the Moyal product and thus to the study of trivial bundles (or local trivializations) over $\real^{2n}$, we will consider general bundles over arbitrary symplectic manifolds. Here, Fedosov's construction \cite{fedosov} will be the adequate tool, since it gives an explicit construction for star products in this general setting.

description: We apply the viscous decretion disc (VDD) model to interpret the infrared disc continuum emission of 80 Be stars observed in different epochs. In this way, we determined 169 specific disc structures, namely their density scale, $ρ_0$, and exponent, $n$. We found that the $n$ values range mainly between $1.5$ and $3.5$, and $ρ_0$ varies between $10^{-12}$ and $10^{-10}\,\mathrm{g\,cm^{-3}}$, with a peak close to the lower value. Our large sample also allowed us to firmly establish that the discs around early-type stars are denser than in late-type stars. Additionally, we estimated the disc mass decretion rates and found that they range between $10^{-12}$ and $10^{-9}\,\mathrm{M_{\odot}\,yr^{-1}}$. These values are compatible with recent stellar evolution models of fast-rotating stars. One of the main findings of this work is a correlation between the $ρ_0$ and $n$ values. In order to find out whether these relations can be traced back to the evolution of discs or have some other origin, we used the VDD model to calculate temporal sequences under different assumptions for the time profile of the disc mass injection. The results support the hypothesis that the observed distribution of disc properties is due to a common evolutionary path. In particular, our results suggest that the timescale for disc growth, during which the disc is being actively fed by mass injection episodes, is shorter than the timescale for disc dissipation, when the disc is no longer fed by the star and dissipates as a result of the viscous diffusion of the disc material.

description: Работа посвящена исследованию механических свойств хиральных металлических нанотрубок методом молекулярной статики. Атомная структура нанотрубок получена сворачиванием тонких нанопластин из кубических кристаллов меди, железа, алюминия и кобальта с ориентацией (010) при различных углах хиральности. Показано, что такие нанотрубки могут закручиваться при растяжении и с увеличением угла хиральности в диапазоне от 0° до 45° значение коэффициента Пуассона уменьшается. Коэффициент Пуассона для растягиваемых нанотрубок из меди, железа и кобальта при определенных углах хиральности становится отрицательным. Установлен характер связи между одноосной деформацией нанотрубок и их кручением при различных углах хиральности (обратный эффект Пойнтинга). Найдено, что с увеличением угла хиральности нанотрубок возрастает их модуль Юнга. Установлено, что результаты атомистического моделирования находятся в качественном согласии с теоретическими оценками с использованием теории анизотропной упругости, но имеются существенные количественные различия для разных кристаллических материалов.

description: In this work, two simple but effective strategies were proposed to optimize friction-stir welding of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. The first one involved an optimization of welding variables to provide a combination of a relatively high welding temperature and the shortest possible thermal cycle during friction-stir welding. This inhibited precipitation coarsening in the heat-affected zone and resulted in considerable residual stress. Accordingly, the produced welds exhibited excellent strength characteristics under static and cyclic loading conditions. The second method was based on the application of the standard postweld T6 tempering. To avoid the abnormal grain growth, which usually occurs during solutionizing of aluminum friction-stir welds, a prestrain rolling was employed prior to the material tempering. This promoted an activation of recrystallization processes during subsequent heat treatment, thus suppressing the abnormal grain growth.

description: Tandon–Weng model based on Mori–Tanaka idea for tensile modulus of conventional composites is currently used for various polymer nanocomposites, but some complex terms in this model may limit the calculations. In this article, this model is simplified and developed for ternary polymer nanocomposites containing layered and spherical nanofillers. The calculations of developed model are compared with the experimental results and the trends between experimental data and the predictions are explained. The developed model shows that some parameters such as tensile modulus of nanoparticles cannot significantly affect the tensile modulus of binary and ternary nanocomposites, due to its very high level.

description: Systems of coupled rate equations are ubiquitous in many areas of science, for example in the description of electronic transport through quantum dots and molecules. They can be understood as a continuity equation expressing the conservation of probability. It is shown that this conservation law can be implemented by constructing a gauge theory akin to classical electrodynamics on the network of possible states described by the rate equations. The properties of this gauge theory are analyzed. It turns out that the network is maximally connected with respect to the electromagnetic fields even if the allowed transitions form a sparse network. It is found that the numbers of degrees of freedom of the electric and magnetic fields are equal. The results shed light on the structure of classical abelian gauge theory beyond the particular motivation in terms of rate equations.

description: In this research, the prevalent mode fracture of V-notches with end holes (VO-notch) in tungsten–copper functionally graded material (W–Cu FGM) was studied experimentally and theoretically. W–Cu FGM specimens were made by powder metallurgy technique in the experimental part. Several fracture tests were done on VO-notched W–Cu FGM specimens under prevalent mode loading for different notch tip radii and notch depths. To predict the fracture loads of VO-notched FGM specimens under prevalent mode loading, the averaged strain energy density over a well-defined control volume was applied in the theoretical section. Moreover, the effect of notch tip radius, notch depth and notch opening angle on the fracture loads was investigated. This study shows that strain energy density theory works well on VO-notched FGM specimens under prevalent mode loading.

description: The ball on beam system is a highly nonlinear laboratory model which helps to understand the modern and classical control theory. This paper emphasizes the position control of a ball on beam system which is actuated by shape memory alloy wires in an antagonistic configuration. The shape memory alloy actuator provides the necessary force to actuate the beam in the left and right directions of angular position. To achieve effective control of any system it is necessary to design the controller optimally but it is very difficult due to the requirement of proper tuning which is not feasible by the conventionally designed controller. The objective of this paper is the optimal design of the well-received PID controller by using intelligent tuning techniques to drive the system with the best performance. Since the genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization are the numerical algorithms that have been extensively used to solve all types of complex engineering problems to improve their performance, these algorithms are used to tune the PID controller. The results of genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization are benchmarked with a conventionally designed PID controller

description: Life evolved on our planet by means of a combination of Darwinian selection and innovations leading to higher levels of complexity. The emergence and selection of replicating entities is a central problem in prebiotic evolution. Theoretical models have shown how populations of different types of replicating entities exclude or coexist with other classes of replicators. Models are typically kinetic, based on standard replicator equations. On the other hand, the presence of thermodynamical constrains for these systems remain an open question. This is largely due to the lack of a general theory of out of statistical methods for systems far from equilibrium. Nonetheless, a first approach to this problem has been put forward in a series of novel developements in non-equilibrium physics, under the rubric of the extended second law of thermodynamics. The work presented here is twofold: firstly, we review this theoretical framework and provide a brief description of the three fundamental replicator types in prebiotic evolution: parabolic, malthusian and hyperbolic. Finally, we employ these previously mentioned techinques to explore how replicators are constrained by thermodynamics.

description: We study the evolution under their self-gravity of infinite ``shuffled lattice'' particle distributions, focussing specifically on the comparison of this evolution with that of ``daughter'' particle distributions, defined by a simple coarse-graining procedure. We consider both the case that such coarse-grainings are performed (i) on the initial conditions, and (ii) at a finite time with a specific additional prescription. In numerical simulations we observe that, to a first approximation, these coarse-grainings represent well the evolution of the two-point correlation properties over a significant range of scales. We note, in particular, that the form of the two-point correlation function in the original system, when it is evolving in the asymptotic ``self-similar'' regime, may be reproduced well in a daughter coarse-grained system in which the dynamics are still dominated by two-body (nearest neighbor) interactions. Using analytical results on the early time evolution of these systems, however, we show that small observed differences between the evolved system and its coarse-grainings at the initial time will in fact diverge as the ratio of the coarse-graining scale to the original inter-particle distance increases. The second coarse-graining studied, performed at a finite time in a specified manner, circumvents this problem. It also makes more physically transparent why gravitational dynamics from these initial conditions tends toward a ``self-similar'' evolution. We finally discuss the precise definition of a limit in which a continuum (specifically Vlasov-like) description of the observed linear and non-linear evolution should be applicable.

description: Recent theories suggest that familiar faces have a robust representation in memory because they have been encountered over a wide variety of contexts and image changes (e.g. lighting, viewpoint and expression). By contrast, unfamiliar faces are encountered only once, and so they do not benefit from such richness of experience and are represented based on image-specific details. In this registered report, we used a repeat detection task to test whether familiar faces are recognized better than unfamiliar faces across image changes. Participants viewed a stream of more than 1000 celebrity face images for 0.5 s each, any of which might be repeated at a later point and has to be detected. Some participants saw the same image at repeats, while others saw a different image of the same face. A post-experimental familiarity check allowed us to determine which celebrities were and were not familiar to each participant. We had three predictions: (i) detection would be better for familiar than unfamiliar faces, (ii) detection would be better across same than different images and (iii) detection of familiar faces would be comparable across same and different images, but detection of unfamiliar faces would be poorer across different images. We obtained support for the first two predictions but not the last. Instead, we found that repeat detection of faces, regardless of familiarity, was poorer across different images. Our study suggests that the robustness of familiar face recognition may have limits, and that under some conditions, familiar face recognition can be just as influenced by image changes as unfamiliar face recognition.

description: After decades of one-dimensional nucleosynthesis calculations, the growth of computational resources has meanwhile reached a level, which for the first time allows astrophysicists to consider performing routinely realistic multidimensional nucleosynthesis calculations in explosive and, to some extent, also in non-explosive environments. In the present contribution we attempt to give a short overview of the physical and numerical problems which are encountered in these simulations. In addition, we assess the accuracy that can be currently achieved in the computation of nucleosynthetic yields, using multidimensional simulations of core collapse supernovae as an example.

Computer simulations of history of life: speciation, emergence of complex species from simpler organisms, and extinctions

description: We propose a generic model of eco-systems, with a {\it hierarchical} food web structure. In our computer simulations we let the eco-system evolve continuously for so long that that we can monitor extinctions as well as speciations over geological time scales. {\it Speciation} leads not only to horizontal diversification of species at any given trophic level but also to vertical bio-diversity that accounts for the emergence of complex species from simpler forms of life. We find that five or six trophic levels appear as the eco-system evolves for sufficiently long time, starting initially from just one single level. Moreover, the time intervals between the successive collections of ecological data is so short that we could also study ``micro''-evolution of the eco-system, i.e., the birth, ageing and death of individual organisms.

description: To investigate the safety, efficacy, and visual quality of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in different corneal thickness patients with myopia or myopic astigmatism. This prospective cohort study included 191 right eyes of 191 patients. Eyes were divided into three groups according to preoperative central corneal thickness (CCT) (Preoperative central corneal thickness (CCT) was the group indicator.) There were 31 eyes in the thin cornea group (CCT ≤500 um (μm), TC), 94 eyes in the moderate corneal thickness group (CCT ≥501 um (μm) and ≤550 um (μm), MD) and 66 eyes in the thick cornea group (CCT ≥550 um (μm), TK). Comparisons in uncorrected (UDVA) and best-corrected distance visual acuity (BDVA), manifest refractive spherical equivalent (SE), preoperative mesopic/photopic contrast sensitivity (CS), ocular higher-order aberrations (HOAs) at a 6mm analytical pupil diameter, and visual quality questionnaires were made (performed) among the three groups during the postoperative six months. Subgroup analyses were made based on preoperative SE. The safety indices at six months were 1.15 ± 0.18, 1.14 ± 0.17, and 1.18 ± 0.17, respectively (p = 0.374), and the efficacy indices at six months were 1.07 ± 0.25, 1.12 ± 0.22, and 1.11 ± 0.21, respectively (p = 0.599). The postoperative SE was −0.07 ± 0.52D, −0.14 ± 0.38D, and −0.05 ± 0.46D after SMILE in the three groups, respectively (p = 0.376). No significant difference was found in mesopic/photopic CS, HOAs, and visual quality among different corneal thickness groups and SE groups. Postoperative SE and efficacy indices were the lowest in thin cornea eyes with ultra-high myopia (over −9.00 D). SMILE provides comparable safety, efficacy, and visual quality results in different corneal thickness patients. Those with myopia higher than -9.00 D had less efficacy after surgery, especially in thin cornea patients.

description: The electronic states of capped semi-infinite nanotubes are studied within the phenomenological gauge field-theory model. A single manifold for the description of both the nanotube and the cap region (considered as nearly a half of either Ih or I fullerene) is suggested. The wavefunctions and the density of states (DoS) are numerically calculated for both metallic and semiconducting nanotubes. The smoothing of van Hove singularities is found and proven analytically. The comparison with the experimental observations is discussed.

description: Unified recombination cross sections and rates are computed for (e + Fe XVIII) --> Fe XVII including non-resonant and resonant (radiative and di-electronic recombination, RR and DR) processes in an ab initio manner with relativistic fine structure. The highly resolved theoretical cross sections exhibit considerably more resonance structures than observed in the heavy-ion storage ring measurements at Heidelberg, Germany. Nonetheless, the detailed resonance complexes agree well with experiment, and the unfiied rates agree with the sum of experimentally derived DR and theoretical RR rates to ~ 20%, within experimental or theoretical uncertainties. Theoretical results may provide estimates of field ionization of rydberg levels close to the DR peak, and non-resonant background contirbutions, particularly close to the RR peak as E --> 0. More generally, the unified results avoid the physical and practical problems in astrophysical models inherent in the separation of electronic recombination into RR and DR on the one hand, and further subdivision into low-energy Delta n = 0 DR and high-energy Delta n > 0 DR in photoionized and collisionally ionized X-ray plasmas.
