description: We consider, within the algebraic formalism, the time dependence of fidelity for qubits encoded into an open physical system. We relate the decay of fidelity to the evolution of correlation functions and, in the particular case of a Markovian dynamics, to the spectral gap of the generator of the semigroup. The results are applicable to the analysis of models of quantum memories.

2019 IEEE General Meeting Panel Presentation: Transmission Planning for Storage: Size and Location
Energy storage systems can deliver value to power systems in several ways, from alleviating network congestion to providing ancillary services. This wide range of applications leads to the necessity of considering energy storage systems in transmission system planning efforts, either as candidate solutions or as existing assets whose operational flexibility affect the nature and schedule of capacity addition. The panel will cover methodologies and procedures for coordinated planning for transmission and storage, highlighting best practices and lessons learned by TSOs and planning agencies, industry players and research centers from the USA, Canada, Latin America and Europe.

description: This paper is devoted to the study of the Cauchy problem for the Boussinesq system with partial viscosity in dimension $N\geq3.$ First we prove a global existence result for data in Lorentz spaces satisfying a smallness condition which is at the scaling of the equations. Second, we get a uniqueness result in Besov spaces with {\it negative} indices of regularity (despite the fact that there is no smoothing effect on the temperature). The proof relies on a priori estimates with loss of regularity for the nonstationary Stokes system with convection. As a corollary, we obtain a global existence and uniqueness result for small data in Lorentz spaces.

On the product of two gamma variate with argument 2: Application to the luminosity function for galaxies
Creators: name: Zaninetti, L.

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: A new luminosity function for galaxies can be built starting from the product of two random variables X and Y represented by a gamma variate with argument 2 >. The mean, the standard deviation and the distribution function of this new distribution are computed. This new probability density function is assumed to describe the mass distribution of galaxies. Through a non linear rule of conversion from mass to luminosity a second new luminosity function for galaxies is derived. The test of reliability of these two luminosity functions was made on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in five different bands. The Schechter function gives a better fit with respect to the two new luminosity functions for galaxies here derived.

2018 PES GM Panel Presentation
Variable and distributed energy resources no longer represent marginal drivers for the expansion of power systems. In most jurisdictions, the scaling-up of these technologies already poses material challenges for the transmission expansion, and strategies have been devised to adapt transmission planning to these challenges in various jurisdictions. The panel will cover several aspects of this adaptation, highlighting best practices and lessons learned by TSOs, governmental agencies in charge of planning, industry players and research centers from the USA, Latin America and Europe. Panelists with hand-on experience in these regions will offer insight on how transmission expansion planning strategies and methodologies, as well as the associated regulatory framework and the interfaces with distribution system operators, have adapted to a reality where distributed and variable energy resources are no longer a footnote on transmission expansion plans but rather a key element to be considered while planning for a economic, reliable and sustainable expansion of the power system.
Maternal depression and child depression in a sample of low-income, primarily racial and ethnic minority families : the mediating role of child adaptability

Subjects: Maternal depression

Low-income

description: Maternal depression is associated with elevated levels of child internalizing mental health issues, such as depression. The impact that maternal depression has on the onset and maintenance of child depression might be especially salient in families who are low-income or ethnic and racial minorities because of elevated rates of maternal depression and environmental stressors (e.g., fewer financial resources, exposure to race-related stress, and less access to mental healthcare services). The relationship between maternal depression and child depression might be partly explained by a child’s capacity to flexibly respond to stressors in the environment, a construct known as adaptability. A simple mediation model will be conducted with a sample of low-income, predominantly Black and Latina mothers and their children (N = 133). If the analysis supports the hypotheses, the results will support a direct link between maternal depression and child depression, and child adaptability will partially mediate this link. Implications of this proposed study are provided to inform future research on the mechanisms underlying the relationship between maternal depression and child depression in low-income, ethnic and racial minority families.

description: This paper introduces versatile filters to construct efficient convolutional neural networks that are widely used in various visual recognition tasks. Considering the demands of efficient deep learning techniques running on cost-effective hardware, a number of methods have been developed to learn compact neural networks. Most of these works aim to slim down filters in different ways, \eg,~investigating small, sparse or quantized filters. In contrast, we treat filters from an additive perspective. A series of secondary filters can be derived from a primary filter with the help of binary masks. These secondary filters all inherit in the primary filter without occupying more storage, but once been unfolded in computation they could significantly enhance the capability of the filter by integrating information extracted from different receptive fields. Besides spatial versatile filters, we additionally investigate versatile filters from the channel perspective. Binary masks can be further customized for different primary filters under orthogonal constraints. We conduct theoretical analysis on network complexity and an efficient convolution scheme is introduced. Experimental results on benchmark datasets and neural networks demonstrate that our versatile filters are able to achieve comparable accuracy as that of original filters, but require less memory and computation cost.

Planetesimal Accretion in Binary Systems: The Effects of Gas Dissipation
Creators: name: Xie, Ji-Wei
name: Zhou, Ji-Lin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Currently, one of major problems concerning planet formation theory in close binary systems is, the strong perturbation from the companion star can increase relative velocities ($\triangle V$) of planetesimals around the primary and thus hinder their growth. According to previous studies, while gas drag can reduce the $\triangle V$ between bodies of the same sizes by forcing orbital alignment to planetesimals, it increases the $\triangle V$ among bodies of different sizes. In this paper, focusing on the $γ$ Cephei binary system, we propose a mechanism that can overcome this difficulty. We show that in a dissipating gas disk (with a typical dissipating timescale of $\sim 10^5-10^6$ years), all the planetesimals eventually converge towards the same forced orbits regardless of their sizes, leading to much lower impact velocities among them. These $\triangle V$ decrease processes progressively increase net mass accretion and even trigger runaway growth for large bodies (radius $>15$ km). The effect of size distribution of planetesimals is discussed, and found to be one of the dominant factors that determine the outcome of collisional evolution. Anyway, it can be concluded that by including the gas dissipation in the early stage of disk evolution, the conditions for planetesimal accretion become much better, and the process from planetesimal to planet-embryo can be carried out in close binary systems like $γ$ Cephei.

The kinetics of ’salting-out’ of neutral sodium sulfate from sulfuric acid solution
Creators: name: Okorafor, Ogbonna Charles
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The equilibrium phase diagram for the system sodium sulfate-methanol/water-sulfuric acid at 35° was determined. The nucleation, and growth characteristics of sodium sulfate have been studied in a laboratory scale crystallizer (Mixed Suspension Mixed Product Removal 'MSMPR') under carefully controlled conditions of supersaturation, temperature, agitation rate and residence time. From a statistical analysis of the data it was found that supersaturation, temperature, the interactions of supersaturation with temperature and agitation rate with temperature had positive effects on growth and nucleation rates, while agitation rate, residence time, the interactions of agitation rate with supersaturation, residence time with supersaturation had negative effects on growth and nucleation rates. The 'order' of the nucleation process, b, defined by B = K[sub= N]S[sup= B] was about 5. The growth rate, defined by G = K[sub= G]S[sup= c] Was first order (C = 1). For both processes the activation energy varied from 12 to 15 kcal/mol. The growth process was considered to be surface integration controlled for the various conditions tested. The nucleation rate was considered essentially to be homogeneous nucleation. A non-linear mathematical relationship was developed for both growth rate and nucleation rate in terms of the three factors, temperature, supersaturation and residence time. In both the growth and nucleation rate models the measured data fit poorly. This indicates that the model (a reaction rate type) poorly represents the data for crystallization found in this study.

description: [truncated] In Spring 2007, we observed SgrA* with XMM with a total exposure of ~230ks. We have performed timing and spectral analysis of the new X-ray flares detected during this campaign. To study the range of flare spectral properties, in a consistent manner, we have also reprocessed, using the same analysis procedure and the latest calibration, archived XMM data of previously reported rapid flares. The dust scattering was taken into account during the spectral fitting. We also used Chandra archived observations of the quiescent state of SgrA* for comparison. On April 4, 2007, we observed for the first time within a time interval of ~1/2 day, an enhanced incidence rate of X-ray flaring, with a bright flare followed by three flares of more moderate amplitude. The former event represents the second brightest X-ray flare from Sgr A* on record. This new bright flare exhibits similar light-curve shape (nearly symmetrical), duration (~3ks) and spectral characteristics to the very bright flare observed in October 3, 2002. The measured spectral parameters of the new bright flare, assuming an absorbed power law model taken into account dust scattering effect, are N_H=12.3(+2.1,-1.8)e22 cm-2 and Gamma~2.3+/-0.3 calculated at the 90% c.l. The spectral parameter fits of the sum of the three following moderate flares, while lower, are compatible within the error bars with those of the bright flares. The column density found, for a power-law, during the flares is at least two times higher than the value expected from the (dust) visual extinction toward SgrA* (AV~25 mag). However, our fitting of the SgrA* quiescent spectra obtained with Chandra shows that an excess of column density is already present during the non-flaring phase. The two brightest X-ray flares observed so far from SgrA* exhibited similar soft spectra.

description: One of the most well-known classical results for site percolation on the square lattice is the equation $p_c+p_c^*=1$. In words, this equation means that for all values $\neq p_c$ of the parameter $p$, the following holds: either a.s. there is an infinite open cluster or a.s. there is an infinite closed "star" cluster. This result is closely related to the percolation transition being sharp: below $p_c$, the size of the open cluster of a given vertex is not only (a.s.) finite, but has a distribution with an exponential tail. The analog of this result has been proven by Higuchi in 1993 for two-dimensional Ising percolation (at fixed inverse temperature $β

description: We compute two-point correlation functions and measure the shear signal due to galaxy-galaxy lensing for 80,000 optically identified and 5,700 radio-loud AGN from Data Release 4 (DR4) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Halo occupation models are used to estimate halo masses and satellite fractions for these two types of AGN. The large sample size allows us to separate AGN according to the stellar mass of their host galaxies. We study how the halo masses of optical and radio AGN differ from those of the parent population at fixed M*. Halo masses deduced from clustering and from lensing agree satisfactorily. Radio AGN are found in more massive halos than optical AGN: in our samples their mean halo masses are 1.6 x 10^{13} and 8 x 10^{11} M_{sun}/h, respectively. Optical AGN follow the same relation between stellar mass and halo mass as galaxies selected without regard to nuclear properties, but radio-loud AGN deviate significantly from this relation. The dark matter halos of radio-loud AGN are about twice as massive as those of control galaxies of the same stellar mass. This boost is independent of radio luminosity, and persists even when our analysis is restricted to field galaxies. The large-scale gaseous environment of the galaxy clearly plays a crucial role in producing observable radio emission. The dark matter halo masses that we derive for the AGN in our two samples are in good agreement with recent models in which feedback from radio AGN becomes dominant in halos where gas cools quasi-statically.

Exploring the population of Galactic very-high-energy $γ$-ray sources

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

description: At very high energies (VHE), the emission of $γ$ rays is dominated by discrete sources. Due to the limited resolution and sensitivity of current-generation instruments, only a small fraction of the total Galactic population of VHE $γ$-ray sources has been detected significantly. The larger part of the population can be expected to contribute as a diffuse signal alongside emission originating from propagating cosmic rays. Without quantifying the source population, it is not possible to disentangle these two components. Based on the H.E.S.S. Galactic plane survey, a numerical approach has been taken to develop a model of the population of Galactic VHE $γ$-ray sources, which is shown to account accurately for the observational bias. We present estimates of the absolute number of sources in the Galactic Plane and their contribution to the total VHE $γ$-ray emission for five different spatial source distributions. Prospects for CTA and its ability to constrain the model are discussed. Finally, first results of an extension of our modelling approach using machine learning to extract more information from the available data set are presented.

description: The hydrostatic pressure is expected to be an effective knob to tune the magnetostructural phase transitions of hexagonal MMX alloy. In this study, magnetization measurements under hydrostatic pressure were performed on a MMX martensitic MnNi0.77Fe0.23Ge alloy. The magnetostructural transition temperature can be efficiently tuned to lower temperatures by applying moderate pressures, with a giant shift rate of -151 K GPa-1. A temperature span of 30 K is obtained under the pressure, within which a large magnetic entropy change of -23 J kg-1 K-1 in a field change of 5 T is induced by the mechanical energy gain due to the large volume change. Meanwhile, a decoupling of structural and magnetic transitions is observed at low temperatures when the martensitic transition temperature is lower than the Curie temperature. These results show a multi-parameter tunable caloric effect that benefits the solid-state cooling.

While there has been a large investment and efforts in synchrophasors based pilot projects, there are very less number of control implementation and industry grade solutions.  Some of the early PMU appli-cations for bulk power system operation include angle monitoring, state estimation, oscillation monitoring, voltage stability, event analysis and post-marten analysis.  Number of other applications being explored includes model validation, managing renewable energy generation, system restoration, adaptive protec-tion and real time control.  Even if there are synchrophasor based industry-grade solutions, control center are not taking them from pilot-grade to full-fledge control center implementation as expected.  This panel will look at challenges and possible solutions in implementing synchrophasors solutions at the control center.

description: Electroweak precision data has been extensively used to constrain models containing physics beyond that of the Standard Model. When the model contains Higgs scalars in representations other than SU(2) singlets or doublets, and hence rho not equal to one at tree level, a correct renormalization scheme requires more inputs than the three needed for the Standard Model. We discuss the connection between the renormalization of models with Higgs triplets and the decoupling properties of the models as the mass scale for the scalar triplet field becomes much larger than the electroweak scale. The requirements of perturbativity of the couplings and agreement with electroweak data place strong restrictions on models with Higgs triplets. Our results have important implications for Little Higgs type models and other models with rho not equal to one at tree level.

description: We demonstrate a high-brightness source of pairs of indistinguishable photons based on a type-II phase-matched doubly-resonant optical parametric oscillator operated far below threshold. The cavity-enhanced down-conversion output of a PPKTP crystal is coupled into two single-mode fibers with a mode coupling efficiency of 58%. The high degree of indistinguishability between the photons of a pair is demonstrated by a Hong-Ou-Mandel interference visibility of higher than 90% without any filtering at an instantaneous coincidence rate of 450 000 pairs/s per mW of pump power per nm of down-conversion bandwidth. For the degenerate spectral mode with a linewidth of 7 MHz at 795 nm a rate of 70 pairs/(s mW MHz) is estimated, increasing the spectral brightness for indistinguishable photons by two orders of magnitude compared to similar previous sources.

description: The Internet-of-Things requires end-nodes with ultra-low-power always-on capability for a long battery lifetime, as well as high performance, energy efficiency, and extreme flexibility to deal with complex and fast-evolving near-sensor analytics algorithms (NSAAs). We present Vega, an IoT end-node SoC capable of scaling from a 1.7 $\mathrmμ$W fully retentive cognitive sleep mode up to 32.2 GOPS (@ 49.4 mW) peak performance on NSAAs, including mobile DNN inference, exploiting 1.6 MB of state-retentive SRAM, and 4 MB of non-volatile MRAM. To meet the performance and flexibility requirements of NSAAs, the SoC features 10 RISC-V cores: one core for SoC and IO management and a 9-cores cluster supporting multi-precision SIMD integer and floating-point computation. Vega achieves SoA-leading efficiency of 615 GOPS/W on 8-bit INT computation (boosted to 1.3TOPS/W for 8-bit DNN inference with hardware acceleration). On floating-point (FP) compuation, it achieves SoA-leading efficiency of 79 and 129 GFLOPS/W on 32- and 16-bit FP, respectively. Two programmable machine-learning (ML) accelerators boost energy efficiency in cognitive sleep and active states, respectively.

2018 PES GM Panel Presentation
As the penetration level of DER (distributed generators, energy storage devices, and controllable loads) continues to grow on the electric distribution system, these devices will have a significant impact on overall distribution system performance. As a result, continuous monitoring and control of DER may be needed through a distributed energy resource management system (DERMS). DERMS can play not only a significant role in monitoring and control of DERs, but also benefit the distribution utilities through market participation of DERs from the ability to control the dynamic exchange of power between the DERs and the bulk grid over the interconnecting tie-lines. Despite significant benefits, integrating DERMS with distribution systems is challenging owing to the fact that the current industry direction for DER monitoring and control is a separate DERMS which handles the direct interface to DER for monitoring and control purposes rather than DSCADA and DMS. Integrating a DERMS with the DMS will allow the DMS to have a full view of all DER assets connected to the grid. The panel will highlight some of challenges associated with integration of DERMS with DSCADA/DERMS and also focus on industry practices, advances in terms of methodologies, tools and communications interfaces for DERMS integration.

2019 IEEE General Meeting Panel Presentation: Challenges and Enabling Technologies for Wide Area Protection of Future Power Systems
The rapid increase of distribution generation, photovoltaics and electric vehicles in power systems makes the power supply, power demand and possible disturbances like fault current levels and overload very unpredictable. By deploying more renewables, power systems of the future face major changes.
An important question is, how the system of the future can be monitored, controlled and protected against sever disturbances.
Experts from European utilities, manufacturers and academia will convey their currently available experience related to wide area monitoring protection and control and the evolution of the protection in distribution and transmission grids. The latest experience in developing system integrated protection schemes and enabling digital substations of the future will be presented.

description: We present the first short-duration candidate microlensing events from the Kepler K2 mission. From late April to early July 2016, Campaign 9 of K2 obtained high temporal cadence observations over a 3.7 square degree region of the Galactic bulge. Its primary objectives were to look for evidence of a free-floating planet (FFP) population using microlensing, and demonstrate the feasibility of space-based planetary microlensing surveys. Though Kepler K2 is far from optimal for microlensing, the recently developed MCPM photometric pipeline enables us to identify and model microlensing events. We describe our blind event-selection pipeline in detail and use it to recover 22 short-duration events with effective timescales of less than 10 days previously announced by the OGLE and KMTNet ground-based surveys. We also announce five new candidate events. One of these is a caustic-crossing binary event, consistent with a bound planet and modelled as such in a companion study. The other four have very short durations (effective timescales less than 0.1 days) typical of an Earth-mass FFP population. Whilst Kepler was not designed for crowded-field photometry, the K2C9 dataset clearly demonstrates the feasibility of conducting blind space-based microlensing surveys towards the Galactic bulge.
