description: In this paper, we aim to estimate the vertical gradients in the rotational velocity of the Galaxy. This is carried out in the framework of a global thin disc model approximation. The predicted gradient values coincide with the observed vertical fall-off in the rotation curve of the Galaxy. The gradient is estimated based on a statistical analysis of trajectories of test bodies in the gravitational field of the disc and in an analytical way using a quasi-circular orbit approximation. The agreement of the results with the gradient measurements is remarkable in view of other more complicated, non-gravitational mechanisms used for explaining the observed gradient values. Finally, we find that models with a significant spheroidal component give worse vertical gradient estimates than the simple disc model. In view of these results, we can surmise that, apart from the central spherical bulge and Galactic halo, the gross mass distribution in the Galaxy forms a flattened rather than spheroidal figure.

description: Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a neurovascular disease that can lead to seizures and stroke-like symptoms. The familial form is caused by a heterozygous germline mutation in either the CCM1, CCM2, or CCM3 gene. While the importance of a second-hit mechanism in CCM development is well established, it is still unclear whether it immediately triggers CCM development or whether additional external factors are required. We here used RNA sequencing to study differential gene expression in CCM1 knockout induced pluripotent stem cells (CCM1−/− iPSCs), early mesoderm progenitor cells (eMPCs), and endothelial-like cells (ECs). Notably, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated inactivation of CCM1 led to hardly any gene expression differences in iPSCs and eMPCs. However, after differentiation into ECs, we found the significant deregulation of signaling pathways well known to be involved in CCM pathogenesis. These data suggest that a microenvironment of proangiogenic cytokines and growth factors can trigger the establishment of a characteristic gene expression signature upon CCM1 inactivation. Consequently, CCM1−/− precursor cells may exist that remain silent until entering the endothelial lineage. Collectively, not only downstream consequences of CCM1 ablation but also supporting factors must be addressed in CCM therapy development.

description: The field of low-temperature plasmas (LTPs) excels by virtue of its broad intellectual diversity, interdisciplinarity and range of applications. This great diversity also challenges researchers in communicating the outcomes of their investigations, as common practices and expectations for reporting vary widely in the many disciplines that either fall under the LTP umbrella or interact closely with LTP topics. These challenges encompass comparing measurements made in different laboratories, exchanging and sharing computer models, enabling reproducibility in experiments and computations using traceable and transparent methods and data, establishing metrics for reliability, and in translating fundamental findings to practice. In this paper, we address these challenges from the perspective of LTP standards for measurements, diagnostics, computations, reporting and plasma sources. This discussion on standards, or recommended best practices, and in some cases suggestions for standards or best practices, has the goal of improving communication, reproducibility and transparency within the LTP field and fields allied with LTPs. This discussion also acknowledges that standards and best practices, either recommended or at some point enforced, are ultimately a matter of judgment. These standards and recommended practices should not limit innovation nor prevent research breakthroughs from having real-time impact. Ultimately, the goal of our research community is to advance the entire LTP field and the many applications it touches through a shared set of expectations.

description: We find that the mixed maximally entangled states exist and prove that the form of the mixed maximally entangled states is unique in terms of the entanglement of formation. Moreover, even if the entanglement is quantified by other entanglement measures, this conclusion is still proven right. This result is a supplementary to the generally accepted fact that all maximally entangled states are pure. These states possess important properties of the pure maximally entangled states, for example, these states can be used as a resource for faithful teleportation and they can be distinguished perfectly by local operations and classical communication.

Subjects: subject: Differential Geometry (math.DG)

description: In this note, we obtain a sharp volume estimate for complete gradient Ricci solitons with scalar curvature bounded below by a positive constant. Using Chen-Yokota's argument we obtain a local lower bound estimate of the scalar curvature for the Ricci flow on complete manifolds. Consequently, one has a sharp estimate of the scalar curvature for expanding Ricci solitons; we also provide a direct (elliptic) proof of this sharp estimate. Moreover, if the scalar curvature attains its minimum value at some point, then the manifold is Einstein.
description: 15 pages. Added some references and an appendix to give a more simple computation of the volume estimate

description: This paper describes the first implementation of terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers for high-resolution absorption spectroscopy on plasmas. Absolute densities of ground state atomic oxygen were directly obtained by using the fine structure transition at approximately 4.75 THz. Measurements were performed on a low-pressure capacitively coupled radio frequency oxygen discharge. The detection limit in this arrangement was found to be 2 × 10 13 cm−3, while the measurement accuracy was within 5%, as demonstrated by reference measurements of a well-defined ammonia transition. The results show that the presented method is well suited to measure atomic oxygen densities, and it closes the THz gap for quantitative atomic density measurements in harsh environments such as plasmas.
Scintillation counters for gamma-ray measurements and a study of the gamma-rays from the D (p.Y) He[3] reaction
Creators: name: Griffiths, George Motley
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: The development of scintillation counters for measurements of Ƴ-ray energies and fluxes is described, with particular emphasis on Y-rays in the energy range 2 to 20 Mev. A comparison has been made between the experimentally observed and theoretically predicted properties of these counters. A three-crystal pair spectrometer has been developed which measures only those Ƴ-rays which interact with the detector crystal by producing electron-positron pairs. This device has proved useful for investigating the pair production process for Ƴ-rays with energies only 150 Kev. above the pair production threshold, as well as for the investigation of the complex Ƴ-ray spectrum produced by the F¹⁹(p,αƳ)0¹⁶ reaction. A detailed study of the D(p,Ƴ)He³ reaction has been made. The Ƴ-ray energy indicates that the transition goes to the ground state of He³. The shift in Ƴ-energy with changing proton, energy was, observed, and fits the following relation: E[subscript] Ƴ = (5.50 ± 0.03) + ⅔ E[subscript]p Mev. The Doppler shift of the Ƴ-ray energy (frequency) as a function of the angle between the directions of the incident protons and emitted Ƴ-rays has been measured. The observed shift has the full value expected, assuming that the Ƴ-rays are emitted in a time short compared to the slowing down time of the intermediate He³ nucleus in the target. From these results an upper limit of 2 x 10¹³sec. can be placed on the half-life for the Ƴ-ray transition. The cross section for the reaction for incident protons of 1 Mev. is estimated to be 6 x 10⁻³⁰ cm² (± 50%). The excitation function has been measured from 250 Kev. to 1.8 Mev. and the angular distribution of the Ƴ-rays has the form (Sin² θ + b) where b = 0.046 ± 0.005 for 1 Mev. protons and b = 0.025 ±0.006 for 1.75 Mev. protons. These results, when compared with recent theory, indicate that the reaction is due to direct radiative capture of the protons. Preliminary measurements have been made on the T(p,Ƴ)He⁴ reaction. The Ƴ-ray energy measured relative to the Ƴ rays from the Li⁷(p,Ƴ)Be⁸ reaction is 20.3 ± 0.4 Mev. for 800 Kev. incident protons, indicating that the transition goes directly to the ground state of the helium nucleus. The angular distribution of, the Ƴ-rays measured in a plane containing the incident proton beam direction is predominantly Sin² θ with the addition of a small isotropic component. The present approximate measurements show a greater isotropic component than that obtained at higher proton energy by other workers.

description: This paper discusses the mathematical framework for designing methods of large deformation matching (LDM) for image registration in computational anatomy. After reviewing the geometrical framework of LDM image registration methods, a theorem is proved showing that these methods may be designed by using the actions of diffeomorphisms on the image data structure to define their associated momentum representations as (cotangent lift) momentum maps. To illustrate its use, the momentum map theorem is shown to recover the known algorithms for matching landmarks, scalar images and vector fields. After briefly discussing the use of this approach for Diffusion Tensor (DT) images, we explain how to use momentum maps in the design of registration algorithms for more general data structures. For example, we extend our methods to determine the corresponding momentum map for registration using semidirect product groups, for the purpose of matching images at two different length scales. Finally, we discuss the use of momentum maps in the design of image registration algorithms when the image data is defined on manifolds instead of vector spaces.

description: We show that a large class of helium-containing cold polar molecules form readily in a cryogenic buffer gas, achieving densities as high as 10^12 cm^-3. We explore the spin relaxation of these molecules in buffer gas loaded magnetic traps, and identify a loss mechanism based on Landau-Zener transitions arising from the anisotropic hyperfine interaction. Our results show that the recently observed strong T^6 thermal dependence of spin change in buffer gas trapped silver (Ag) is accounted for by the formation and spin change of AgHe, thus providing evidence for molecular formation in a buffer gas trap.

description: Magnetostatic spin wave dispersion and loss are measured in micron scale spin wave-guides in ferromagnetic, metallic CoTaZr. Results are in good agreement with model calculations of spin wave dispersion. The measured attenuation lengths, of the order of 3um, are several of orders of magnitude shorter than that predicted from eddy currents in these thin wires. Spin waves effectively "tunnel" through air gaps, produced by focused ion beam etching, as large as 1.5 um.

description: A conical-shaped atmospheric pressure plasma jet (CS-APPJ) was developed to overcome a standard limitation of APPJs, which is their small treatment area. The CS-APPJs increase the treatment area but use the same gas flow. In the present work, polypropylene samples were treated by CS-APPJ and characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), the contact angle, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It was observed that the treatment co-occurs on the face directly in contact with the plasma and on the opposite face (OF) of the samples, i.e., no contact. However, the treatment changed the chemical composition on each side; the OF is rougher than the direct contact face (DCF), probably due to the oxygen groups in excess at the DCF and nitrogen in quantity at the OF. Although simultaneous treatment of both sides of the sample occurs for most atmospheric plasma treatments, this phenomenon is not explored in the literature.

description: We introduce the notion of an ACP process algebra and the notion of a meadow enriched ACP process algebra. The former notion originates from the models of the axiom system ACP. The latter notion is a simple generalization of the former notion to processes in which data are involved, the mathematical structure of data being a meadow. Moreover, for all associative operators from the signature of meadow enriched ACP process algebras that are not of an auxiliary nature, we introduce variable-binding operators as generalizations. These variable-binding operators, which give rise to comprehended terms, have the property that they can always be eliminated. Thus, we obtain a process calculus whose terms can be interpreted in all meadow enriched ACP process algebras. Use of the variable-binding operators can have a major impact on the size of terms.

description: Thermally treated kaolinite is used to develop a range of alumino-silicate-based precursor materials but its behavior during plasma spraying has not been well-researched. In this study, two types of kaolinite samples were investigated in the form of low defect (KGa-1b) and high defect (KGa-2) varieties. The extreme temperatures of the plasma stream (up to 20 000 K) induced flash melting to produce a highly porous alumino-silicate glass without any crystallization of new Al−Si oxide minerals. The glass is comprised largely of intact or deformed spheres (average diameters 1.14–1.44 μm), which indicates rapid quenching and solidification before impact. The subspherical structures contain up to 40 % closed pore space caused by the rapid escape of water during melting. The low-density, porous alumino-silicate glass coatings with predicted specific surface areas (>0.95 m2/g) and hardnesses >1.8 GPa represent a potentially reactive but physically stable substrate ideal for further chemical functionalization.

Quantum spin Hall effect and spin-charge separation in a kagome lattice

description: A two-dimensional kagome lattice is theoretically investigated within a simple tight-binding model, which includes the nearest neighbor hopping term and the intrinsic spin-orbit interaction between the next nearest neighbors. By using the topological winding properties of the spin-edge states on the complex-energy Riemann surface, the spin Hall conductance is obtained to be quantized as $-e/2π$ ($e/2π$) in insulating phases. This result keeps consistent with the numerical linear-response calculation and the \textbf{Z}$_{2}$ topological invariance analysis. When the sample boundaries are connected in twist, by which two defects with $π$ flux are introduced, we obtain the spin-charge separated solitons at 1/3 (or 2/3) filling.

Radiation Driven Chemistry in Biomolecules—is (V)UV Involved in the Bioactivity of Argon Jet Plasmas?

description: Cold physical plasmas, especially noble gas driven plasma jets, emit considerable amounts of ultraviolet radiation (UV). Given that a noble gas channel is present, even the energetic vacuum UV can reach the treated target. The relevance of UV radiation for antimicrobial effects is generally accepted. It remains to be clarified if this radiation is relevant for other biomedical application of plasmas, e.g., in wound care or cancer remediation. In this work, the role of (vacuum) ultraviolet radiation generated by the argon plasma jet kINPen for cysteine modifications was investigated in aqueous solutions and porcine skin. To differentiate the effects of photons of different wavelength and complete plasma discharge, a micro chamber equipped with a MgF2, Suprasil, or Borosilicate glass window was used. In liquid phase, plasma-derived VUV radiation was effective and led to the formation of cysteine oxidation products and molecule breakdown products, yielding sulfite, sulfate, and hydrogen sulfide. At the boundary layer, the impact of VUV photons led to water molecule photolysis and formation of hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen peroxide. In addition, photolytic cleavage of the weak carbon-sulfur bond initiated the formation of sulfur oxy ions. In the intact skin model, protein thiol modification was rare even if a VUV transparent MgF2 window was used. Presumably, the plasma-derived VUV radiation played a limited role since reactions at the boundary layer are less frequent and the dense biomolecules layers block it effectively, inhibiting significant penetration. This result further emphasizes the safety of physical plasmas in biomedical applications.

The assessment of forage production from irrigated pastures by means of beef cattle
Creators: name: Nicholson, Hugh Hampson
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: The use of Irrigated Pastures for the production of beef cattle in British Columbia is a relatively new venture. That they have a place in the ranch economy of the province is appreciated when it is realized that the natural range resources are being used to their fullest extent at the present time. Irrigated pastures provide a means of intensification of production and permit increased beef output from the limited land areas available in the province. The various methods of estimating pasture production through the use of grazing animals have been investigated. These investigations indicate the need for accuracy of experimental procedure since the variables encountered are numerous. The production of forage from irrigated pastures in 148 days was 4290.0 to 5011.8 pounds of total digestible nutrients per acre depending upon method used in calculation. The young succulent grasses and legumes encountered in irrigated pastures are high in protein with a corresponding deficiency in carbohydrate. The use of high energy supplementation may be worthy of further investigation. The incident of bloat and foot rot in animals on irrigated pasture can be a problem. Correct management procedures and prompt treatment will assist in alleviating these problems.

description: Absolute ground state atomic hydrogen densities were measured, by the utilization of two-photon absorption laser induced fluorescence, in a low-pressure electron cyclotron resonance plasma as a function of nitrogen admixtures - 0 to 5000 ppm. At nitrogen admixtures of 1500 ppm and higher, the spectral distribution of the fluorescence changes from a single Gaussian to a double Gaussian distribution; this is due to a separate, nascent contribution arising from the photolysis of an ammonia molecule. At nitrogen admixtures of 5000 ppm, the nascent contribution becomes the dominant contribution at all investigated pressures. Thermal loading experiments were conducted by heating the chamber walls to different temperatures; this showed a decrease in the nascent contributions with increasing temperature. This is explained by considering how the temperature influences recombination coefficients, and from which, it can be stated that the Langmuir-Hinshelwood recombination mechanism is dominant over the Eley-Rideal mechanism.

description: We study the lensing convergence power spectrum and its covariance for a standard LCDM cosmology. We run 400 cosmological N-body simulations and use the outputs to perform a total of 1000 independent ray-tracing simulations. We compare the simulation results with analytic model predictions. The semi-analytic model based on Smith et al.(2003) fitting formula underestimates the convergence power by ~30% at arc-minute angular scales. For the convergence power spectrum covariance, the halo model reproduces the simulation results remarkably well over a wide range of angular scales and source redshifts. The dominant contribution at small angular scales comes from the sample variance due to the number fluctuations of halos in a finite survey volume. The signal-to-noise ratio for the convergence power spectrum is degraded by the non-Gaussian covariances by up to a factor 5 for a weak lensing survey to z_s ~1. The probability distribution of the convergence power spectrum estimators, among the realizations, is well approximated by a chi-square distribution with broadened variance given by the non-Gaussian covariance, but has a larger positive tail. The skewness and kurtosis have non-negligible values especially for a shallow survey. We argue that a prior knowledge on the full distribution may be needed to obtain an unbiased estimate on the ensemble averaged band power at each angular scale from a finite volume survey.

This task plays a central role in the analysis of quantum cryptographic protocols in the noisy-storage model, where the identity of the state corresponds to a certain bit string, and the additional information is typically a choice of encoding that is initially unknown to the cheating party. We first provide simple optimality conditions for measurements for any such problem, and show upper and lower bounds on the success probability. For a certain class of problems, we furthermore provide tight bounds on how useful post-measurement information can be. In particular, we show that for this class finding the optimal measurement for the task of state discrimination with post-measurement information does in fact reduce to solving a different problem of state discrimination without such information. However, we show that for the corresponding classical state discrimination problems with post-measurement information such a reduction is impossible, by relating the success probability to the violation of Bell inequalities. This suggests the usefulness of post-measurement information as another feature that distinguishes the classical from a quantum world.

description: We use density functional theory to determine the equilibrium shape of graphene flakes, through the calculation of the edge orientation dependence of the edge energy and edge stress of graphene nanoribbons. The edge energy is a nearly linear function of edge orientation angle; increasing from the armchair orientation to the zigzag orientation. Reconstruction of the zigzag edge lowers its energy to less than that of the armchair edge. The edge stress for all edge orientations is compressive, however, reconstruction of the zigzag edge reduces this edge stress to near zero. Hydrogen adsorption is favorable for all edge orientations; dramatically lowering all edge energies and all edge stresses. It also removes the reconstruction of the zigzag edge. Using the new edge energy data, we determine the equilibrium shape of a graphene sheet (with unreconstructed edges) to be hexagonal with straight armchair edges in the presence and absence of hydrogen. However, zigzag edge reconstruction produces graphene flakes with a six-fold symmetry, but with rounded edges. This shape is dominated by near zigzag edges. The compressive edge stresses will lead to edge buckling (out-of-the-plane of the graphene sheet) for all edge orientations, in the absence of hydrogen. Exposing the graphene flake to hydrogen dramatically decreases the buckling amplitude.

description: The Type IIA superstring action on the AdS_4 x CP^3 background, obtainable by the double dimensional reduction of the AdS_4 x S^7 supermembrane, is considered in the kappa-symmetry light-cone gauge, in which the light-like directions are chosen on the D=3 Minkowski boundary of AdS_4. Such choice of the gauge condition relies on representing the AdS_4 x S^7 background isometry superalgebra osp(4|8) (and correspondingly the osp(4|6) isometry superalgebra of the AdS_4 x CP^3 background) as D=3 extended superconformal algebra. The gauge-fixed action includes contributions up to the 4th power in the fermions.

description: These lecture notes, based on a course given at the Zurich Clay Summer School (June 23-July 18, 2008), review our current mathematical understanding of the global behaviour of waves on black hole exterior backgrounds. Interest in this problem stems from its relationship to the non-linear stability of the black hole spacetimes themselves as solutions to the Einstein equations, one of the central open problems of general relativity. After an introductory discussion of the Schwarzschild geometry and the black hole concept, the classical theorem of Kay and Wald on the boundedness of scalar waves on the exterior region of Schwarzschild is reviewed. The original proof is presented, followed by a new more robust proof of a stronger boundedness statement. The problem of decay of scalar waves on Schwarzschild is then addressed, and a theorem proving quantitative decay is stated and its proof sketched. This decay statement is carefully contrasted with the type of statements derived heuristically in the physics literature for the asymptotic tails of individual spherical harmonics. Following this, our recent proof of the boundedness of solutions to the wave equation on axisymmetric stationary backgrounds (including slowly-rotating Kerr and Kerr-Newman) is reviewed and a new decay result for slowly-rotating Kerr spacetimes is stated and proved. This last result was announced at the summer school and appears in print here for the first time. A discussion of the analogue of these problems for spacetimes with a positive cosmological constant follows. Finally, a general framework is given for capturing the red-shift effect for non-extremal black holes. This unifies and extends some of the analysis of the previous sections. The notes end with a collection of open problems.
