Evidence for a Positive Cosmological Constant from Flows of Galaxies and Distant Supernovae

description: Recent observations of high-redshift supernovae seem to suggest that the global geometry of the Universe may be affected by a `cosmological constant', which acts to accelerate the expansion rate with time. But these data by themselves still permit an open universe of low mass density and no cosmological constant. Here we derive an independent constraint on the lower bound to the mass density, based on deviations of galaxy velocities from a smooth universal expansion. This constraint rules out a low-density open universe with a vanishing cosmological constant, and together the two favour a nearly flat universe in which the contributions from mass density and the cosmological constant are comparable. This type of universe, however, seems to require a degree of fine tuning of the initial conditions that is in apparent conflict with `common wisdom'.

description: Researchers have always aimed to break the trade-off relationship between strength and ductility. In this study, a carbon diffusion strategy was provided to improve the strength and ductility of composite martensite steel simultaneously, as well as increase uniform ductility by 190%. The process strengthens the martensite without losing the hardening ability of austenite constituents and brings in a substantial transition layer. This strategy can also be applied to other composite alloys with light elements, thus providing a pathway for making high-strength and high-ductility materials. An element diffusion strategy was provided, breaking the rule of averages and making composite martensite steel exhibit a higher strength and ductility than the monolithic martensite steel.

description: We have discovered a third harmonic cyclotron resonance scattering feature (CRSF) in observations of the recent outburst of 4U 0115+63 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The spectrum in a narrow pulse phase range shows CRSFs at 12.40+0.65/-0.35, 21.45+0.25/-0.38, and 33.56+0.70/-0.90 keV. With centroid energy ratios to the fundamental of 1.73+/-0.08 and 2.71+/-0.13, the CRSFs are not harmonically spaced. Strong variability of the continuum and CRSFs with pulse phase indicate a complex emission geometry near the neutron star polar cap. In addition, one RXTE observation, which spanned periastron passage, revealed a strong 2 mHz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO). This is slower by two orders of magnitude than the beat-frequency QPO expected in this system and slower by a factor of more than 5 compared with other QPOs seen in accreting X-ray pulsars.

Breaking the spectral degeneracies in black hole binaries with fast timing data

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The spectra of black hole binaries in the low/hard state are complex, with evidence for multiple different Comptonisation regions contributing to the hard X-rays in addition to a cool disc component. We show this explicitly for some of the best RXTE data from Cyg X-1, where the spectrum strongly requires (at least) two different Comptonisation components in order to fit the continuum above 3 keV, where the disc does not contribute. However, it is difficult to constrain the shapes of these Comptonisation components uniquely using spectral data alone. Instead, we show that additional information from fast variability can break this degeneracy. Specifically, we use the observed variability power spectra in each energy channel to reconstruct the energy spectra of the variability on timescales of ~10s, 1s and 0.1s. The two longer timescale spectra have similar shapes, but the fastest component is dramatically harder, and has strong curvature indicating that its seed photons are not from the cool disc. We interpret this in the context of propagating fluctuations through a hot flow, where the outer regions are cooler and optically thick, so that they shield the inner region from the disc. The seed photons for the hot inner region are then from the cooler Comptonisation region rather than the disc itself.

Statistics of fluctuations for two types of crossover: from ballistic to diffusive regime and from orthogonal to unitary ensemble

description: In our previous publication [Kogan et al, Phys. Rev. {\bf 48}, 9404 (1993)] we considered the issue of statistics of radiation diffusively propagating in a disordered medium. The consideration was in the framework of diagrammatic techniques and a new representation for the intensity distribution function in terms of connected diagrams only was proposed. Here we use similar approach to treat the issue of statistics in the regime of the crossover between ballistic and diffusive transport. We find that even small contribution from coherent component decreases by one half the intensity distribution function for small values of intensity and also produces oscillations of the distribution function. We also apply this method to study statistics of fluctuations of wave functions of chaotic electrons in a quantum dot in an arbitrary magnetic field, by calculating the single state local density in the regime of the crossover between the orthogonal and unitary ensemble.

We characterize and optimize the performance of our Zeeman slower and 2D molasses cooling of the atomic beam by means of Doppler spectroscopy on a 136 kHz broad transition at 626 nm. Furthermore, we demonstrate the characterization and optimization procedure for the loading phase of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) by increasing the effective laser linewidth by sideband modulation. After optimization of the MOT compression phase, we cool and trap up to $10^9$ atoms within 3 seconds in the MOT at temperatures of 9 μK and phase space densities of $1.7 \cdot 10^{-5}$, which constitutes an ideal starting point for loading the atoms into an optical dipole trap and for subsequent forced evaporative cooling.

Elemental Abundances in QSOs: Star Formation and Galactic Nuclear Evolution at High Redshifts
Creators: name: Hamann, Fred
name: Ferland, Gary
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quasar (or QSO) elemental abundances provide unique probes of high-redshift star formation and galaxy evolution. There is growing evidence from both the emission and intrinsic absorption lines that QSO environments have roughly solar or higher metallicities out to redshifts >4. The range is not well known, but solar to a few times solar appears to be typical. There is also evidence for higher metallicities in more luminous objects, and for generally enhanced N/C and Fe/alpha abundances compared to solar ratios. These results identify QSOs with vigorous, high-redshift star formation -- consistent with the early evolution of massive galactic nuclei or dense proto-galactic clumps. However, the QSOs offer new constraints. For example, 1) most of the enrichment and star formation must occur before the QSOs "turn on" or become observable, on time scales of ~<1 Gyr at least at the highest redshifts. 2) The tentative result for enhanced Fe/alpha suggests that the first local star formation began at least ~1 Gyr prior to the QSO epoch. 3) The star formation must ultimately be extensive in order to reach high metallicities, i.e. a substantial fraction of the local gas must be converted into stars and stellar remnants. The exact fraction depends on the shape of the initial mass function (IMF). 4) The highest derived metallicities require IMFs that are weighted slightly more toward massive stars than the in solar neighborhood. 5) High metallicities also require deep gravitational potentials. By analogy with the well-known mass--metallicity relation among low-redshift galaxies, metal-rich QSOs should reside in galaxies (or proto-galaxies) that are minimally as massive (or as tightly bound) as our own Milky Way.

description: Preliminary evidence on the long--run trajectory of the accelerator industry suggests that it may be close to the maturity phase of its cycle. If this is the case, how can we measure the benefits of an uncertain breakthrough in acceleration technology? Who are the main stakeholders interested by such a breakthrough? We identify these subjects and sketch some avenues for answering these questions. We thus present a model for the social Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) of research infrastructures and illustrate the results of its implementation for assessing the benefits of accelerators in basic science and hadrontherapy. Lastly, we move from the social CBA of single research infrastructures to modeling a major change in the accelerator technology and hence in the industry. A research agenda on the potential impacts of a technological breakthrough is presented.

description: This paper estimates the private returns to human capital in Pakistani rural labor markets using particularly rich data that permit inclusion of a number of dimensions of human capital and control for the endogeneity resulting from investment in human capital. The results suggest that without data on the determinants of investments in human capital it would not be possible to disentangle the separate effect of each dimension of human capital on wage differentials and, in particular, to distinguish human capital explanations for wage differentials from signalling and credentialist models. With control for endogeneity of human capital and selectivity into wage employment, cognitive skills, but not schooling attainment separate from cognitive achievement nor long-run health status, affects wage differentials in rural Pakistan.

description: This paper assesses regional differences in the net welfare cost of using carbon tax Policies to reduce anticipated climate change. If carbon tax revenues finance reductions in existing taxes, the 'net' welfare cost of the carbon tax may be significantly lowered in light of the indirect benefits of lowering the welfare cost of existing taxes. Indeed, our analysis indicates that a revenue-neutral carbon tax may have a net positive welfare effect based on these public finance considerations alone (ignoring anticipated climate change damages). Moreover, given regional differences in energy resources, efficiency, economic structure, and the efficiency of existing taxes, the potential gains for developing countries appear higher than for developed countries as a percent of GDP. While substantial differences remain in countries' institutional capacity to administer such taxation, these findings run counter to the common assumption that climate change policy would impose the largest burden on the poorest countries.
Accessing functionalised Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes via underutilised and novel synthetic pathways for hydrogen gas odorants and broader chemical applications

description: The need for a non-toxic, distinct and economical hydrogen odorant that does not interfere with the catalyst of a fuel cell is critical for widespread adoption of hydrogen-based technologies. Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes (BCPs) have garnered significant attention in recent decades for their potential pharmaceutical applications. Due to their unique structure, a specifically functionalised BCP has the capability to also be employed as an odorant. This thesis explores routes to access functionalised BCPs primarily through the use of 1,3-diiodobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (DIBCP), the iodine adduct of [1.1.1]propellane, chosen for its superior storability and underutilised nature. The nucleophilic reaction between DIBCP and the sulfide, tetrahydrothiophene, was optimised and extended to various pyridines, sulfides, tertiary amines, and quinolines. Pyridinium salts were found to be the most reactive, especially those with electron-donating substituents at the meta or para positions, resulting in high yields. The synthetic utility of several pyridinium compounds was subsequently demonstrated through a variety of chemical transformations. Additionally, DIBCP was shown to act as a Lewis acid catalyst, enabling condensation reactions between indoles and acetone that were not achievable with traditional methods. Compared to previous studies, the scope of iodo-BCP salts has been significantly expanded, and a deeper mechanistic understanding of their formation has been achieved. Detailed structural and safety analyses were also conducted using X-ray crystallography and DSC/TGA techniques. Ultimately, this work provides high-yielding synthetic routes to BCP-quinolinones and pyridinones, with significant potential for future applications in medicinal chemistry. Although the hydrogen odorant objective was not fully realised, a solid framework for future exploration has been established.

description: The concept of hyperuniformity has been introduced by Torquato and Stillinger in 2003 as a notion to detect structural behaviour intermediate between amorphous disorder and crystalline order. The present paper studies a generalisation of this concept to the unit sphere. It is shown that several well studied determinantal point processes are hyperuniform, one recently introduced process, the projective ensemble, is shown not to be hyperuniform.

description: Web-version: https://w3id.org/ro/crate/1.0 This document specifies a method, known as RO-Crate (Research Object Crate), of organizing file-based data with associated metadata, using linked data principles, in both human and machine readable formats, with the ability to include additional domain-specific metadata. The core of RO-Crate is a JSON-LD file, the RO-Crate Metadata File, named ro-crate-metadata.jsonld. This file contains structured metadata about the dataset as a whole (the Root Data Entity) and, optionally, about some or all of its files. This provides a simple way to, for example, assert the authors (e.g. people, organizations) of the RO-Crate or one its files, or to capture more complex provenance for files, such as how they were created using software and equipment. While providing the formal specification for RO-Crate, this document also aims to be a practical guide for software authors to create tools for generating and consuming research data packages, with explanation by examples.

Failure of hydrodynamics within the vortex liquid phase

description: The recent discovery that some of the coefficients of the viscosity tensor are negative is shown to invalidate the hydrodynamic approach to the vortex liquid phase of a type-II superconductor. A satisfactory theory requires retention of all the spatial gradients of the velocities or electric fields and not just the first derivatives, as assumed in a hydrodynamic theory. We illustrate such a procedure by using time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory to determine the electric field distribution near a single ``twin-plane boundary" due to a current passing through the boundary.

A new determination of supernova rates and a comparison with indicators for galactic star formation

Year: 1999

description: We have computed new estimates of the local rates of supernovae (SNe) adding the updated log of Evans' visual search to our SN search database. In this way, we have accumulated the largest SN statistics ever assembled for this purpose. The new SN rates are corrected on an empirical basis for the bias in the inner regions of galaxies and that in inclined spirals. We also tested an alternative approach based on the simple model proposed by Hatano et al. (1998) for the SN and dust distribution in spirals. It turns out that, although the two approaches give similar average rates, the Hatano et al. model appears to overcorrect the SN rate of distant galaxies. We used these updated statistics to probe the SN rates with different tracers of the star formation activity in galaxies, namely integrated colors, infrared luminosities and nuclear activities. We found a clear relation between the core-collapse SN rate and the integrated galaxy color, which appears consistent with the prediction of galaxy evolutionary models. We also compared SN rates in galaxies with different L_FIR with unfavorable outcome, and we argue that L_FIR is not a universal measurement of SFR. Finally, we confirm that the SN rate is not enhanced in AGN host galaxies which indicates that the nuclear engine does not significantly stimulate the extranuclear SF.

description: Contrary to recent reports, we show that the electronic properties of phosphorene nanotubes are surprisingly rich and much more complex than previously assumed. We find that all phosphorene nanotubes exhibit an intricate direct-to-indirect bandgap transition as the nanotube diameter decreases - a unique property not identified in any prior studies (which claimed either direct or indirect band gaps only) that we uncover with large-scale DFT calculations. We address these previous inconsistencies by detailed analyses of orbital interactions, which reveal that the strain associated with decreasing the nanotube diameter causes a transition from a direct to an indirect band gap for all of the phosphorene nanotubes. We show that our findings are completely general, and extensive calculations across several exchange-correlation functionals verify our conclusions. Most importantly, our results and analyses resolve a long-standing question on the electronic properties of phosphorus nanotubes and brings closure to previously conflicting findings in these unique nanostructures.

description: Our work is motivated by predicting the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) based on a series of longitudinally observed brain scan images. Existing works on dynamic prediction for AD focus primarily on extracting predictive information from multivariate longitudinal biomarker values or brain imaging data at the baseline; whereas in practice, the subject’s brain scan image represented by a multi-dimensional data matrix is collected at each follow-up visit. It is of great interest to predict the progression of AD directly from a series of longitudinally observed images. We propose a novel multi-dimensional functional principal component analysis based on alternating regression on tensor-product B-spline, which circumvents the computational difficulty of doing eigendecomposition, and offers the flexibility of accommodating sparsely and irregularly observed image series. We then use the functional principal component scores as features in the Cox proportional hazards model. We further develop a dynamic prediction framework to provide a personalized prediction that can be updated as new images are collected. Our method extracts visibly interpretable images of the functional principal components and offers an accurate prediction of the conversion to AD. We examine the effectiveness of our method via simulation studies and illustrate its application on the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative data.

description: A multi-cloud model is presented which explains the soft X-ray excess in NGC 4051 and, consistently, the optical line spectrum and the SED of the continuum. The clouds are heated and ionized by the photoionizing flux from the active center and by shocks. Diffuse radiation, partly absorbed throughout the clouds, nicely fits the bump in the soft X-ray domain, while bremsstrahlung radiation from the gaseous clouds contribute to the fit of the continuum SED. Debris of high density fragmented clouds are necessary to explain the absorption oxygen throats observed at 0.87 keV and 0.74 keV. The debris are heated by shocks of about 200-300 km/s. Low velocity (100 km/s)-density (100 cm-3) clouds contribute to the line and continuum spectra, as well as high velocity (1000 km/s)-density (8000 cm-3) clouds which are revealed by the FWHM of the line profiles. The SED in the IR is explained by reradiation of dust, however, the dust-to-gas ratio is not particularly high. Radio emission is well fitted by synchrotron radiation created at the shock front by Fermi mechanism.

description: We show that the Mayers-Shor-Preskill approach and Renner's approach to proving the security of quantum key distribution (QKD) are essentially the same. We begin our analysis by considering a special case of QKD called privacy amplification (PA). PA itself is an important building block of cryptography, both classical and quantum. The standard theoretical tool used for its security proof is called the leftover hashing lemma (LHL). We present a direct connection between the LHL and the coding theorem of a certain quantum error correction code. Then we apply this result to proving the equivalence between the two approaches to proving the security of QKD.

description: The spectrum of a charged particle coupled to Aharonov-Bohm/anyon gauge fields displays a nonanalytic behavior in the coupling constant. Within perturbation theory, this gives rise to certain singularities which can be handled by adding a repulsive contact term to the Hamiltonian. We discuss the case of smeared flux tubes with an arbitrary profile and show that the contact term can be interpreted as the coupling of a magnetic moment spinlike degree of freedom to the magnetic field inside the flux tube. We also clarify the ansatz for the redefinition of the wave function.

EFFECTS OF ADJUSTMENT PROGRAMS ON POVERTY AND ON AUTONOMY: CHILE, MEXICO, AND PERU

description: The structural adjustment programs of these three countries, like those of many others throughout the world in recent years, have greatly changed previous balances between the state and the private sector, capital and labor, and domestic versus world market influences on the economy. This article examines some of the consequences of these changes for questions of poverty and income distribution and for questions of autonomy. The Chilean experience is discussed in terms of three different variants, or models, all within the basic open-economy orientation. Of these, the first had particularly negative consequences in the dimensions examined, the second gave more positive results, and the third improved on the second. Mexico and Peru have been following models similar to the first, the most costly, of the variants used in Chile. This path can be seen as the one closest to the full logic of the new orientation but it is also one that is unnecessarily adverse for equality and for autonomy.

description: Genus Carlopeltis Verhoeff, 1938
Carlopeltis Verhoeff, 1938: 3.
Type species: Alocodesmus alatus Carl, 1914, by monotypy.
Diagnosis: A batodesminine genus belongs to the Alocodesmus group by the absence of body modifications such as: evident epicranial processes; collum modified, elongated to the sides, or directed upwards; prominent convexities on antennae; ornamentation of the metazonite very tuberculated, setose, with the presence of spines; modified paranota with prominent denticulations and striae; ozopores located in highly developed and thickened peritremata. By gonopodal characteristics, Carloperlis differs from other genera by the presence of a field of numerous long setae on the dorsal side of gonocoxae (vs. absence in Cordilleronomus Attems, 1931), absence of tibiotarsal branch (vs. presence in Alocodesmus, Heteropeltis Carl, 1914, and Dioparyphe Hoffman, 1969), and by the prefemoral process is bifid o with annex brach like a secondary process of the prefemoral process (vs. prefemoral process trifid in Alocodesmus and simplex in Cordilleronomus and Cheirogonus Hoffman, 1982).

Very Extended X-ray and H-alpha Emission in M82: Implications for the Superwind Phenomenon

description: We discuss the properties and implications of a 3.7x0.9 kpc region of spatially-coincident X-ray and H-alpha emission about 11.6 kpc to the north of the galaxy M82 previously discussed by Devine and Bally (1999). The PSPC X-ray spectrum is fit by thermal plasma (kT=0.80+-0.17 keV) absorbed by only the Galactic foreground column density. We evaluate the relationship of the X-ray/H-alpha ridge to the M82 superwind. The main properties of the X-ray emission can all be explained as being due to shock-heating driven as the superwind encounters a massive ionized cloud in the halo of M82. This encounter drives a slow shock into the cloud, which contributes to the excitation of the observed H-alpha emission. At the same time, a fast bow-shock develops in the superwind just upstream of the cloud, and this produces the observed X-ray emission. This interpretation would imply that the superwind has an outflow speed of roughly 800 km/s, consistent with indirect estimates based on its general X-ray properties and the kinematics of the inner kpc-scale region of H-alpha filaments. The gas in the M82 ridge is roughly two orders-of-magnitude hotter than the minimum "escape temperature" at this radius, so this gas will not be retained by M82. (abridged)

description: The modern theory of agrarian organization has studied how the economic environment determines organizational form under the assumption of stable property rights to land. The political economy literature has modelled the endogenous determination of property rights. In this paper we propose a model in which the economic organization of agriculture and the political equilibrium determining the distribution of property rights are jointly determined. In particular, because the form of organization may affect the probability and distribution of benefits from agrarian reform, it may be determined in anticipation of this impact. The model offers a reason for why tenancy, despite its economic advantages has been so little used in countries where agrarian reform is a salient political issue. We argue that this in particular helps to understand the dearth of tenancy and the relative failure of land reform in Latin America.

description: Deriving physical parameters from gamma-ray burst afterglow observations remains a challenge, even now, 20 years after the discovery of afterglows. The main reason for the lack of progress is that the peak of the synchrotron emission is in the sub-mm range, thus requiring radio observations in conjunction with X-ray/optical/near-infrared data in order to measure the corresponding spectral slopes and consequently remove the ambiguity wrt. slow vs. fast cooling and the ordering of the characteristic frequencies. We observed GRB 151027B, the 1000th Swift-detected GRB, with GROND in the optical-NIR, ALMA in the sub-millimeter, ATCA in the radio band, and combine this with public Swift-XRT X-ray data. While some observations at crucial times only return upper limits or surprising features, the fireball model is narrowly constrained by our data set, and allows us to draw a consistent picture with a fully-determined parameter set. Surprisingly, we find rapid, large-amplitude flux density variations in the radio band which are extreme not only for GRBs, but generally for any radio source. We interpret these as scintillation effects, though the extreme nature requires either the scattering screen to be at much smaller distance than usually assumed, multiple screens, or a combination of the two.

description: The problem of the geometry of interstitial oxygen in silicon is settled by proper consideration of the quantum delocalization of the oxygen atom around the bond-center position. The calculated infrared absorption spectrum accounts for the 517 and 1136 cm$^{-1}$ bands in their position, character, and isotope shifts. The asymmetric lineshape of the 517 cm$^{-1}$ peak is also well reproduced. A new, non-infrared-active, symmetric-stretching mode is found at 596 cm$^{-1}$. First-principles calculations are presented supporting the nontrivial quantum delocalization of the oxygen atom.

description: A novel two-sided Bitter decoration technique was recently employed by Yao et al. to study the structure of the magnetic vortex array in high-temperature superconductors. Here we discuss the analysis of such experiments. We show that two-sided decorations can be used to infer {\it quantitative} information about the bulk properties of flux arrays, and discuss how a least squares analysis of the local density differences can be used to bring the two sides into registry. Information about the tilt, compressional and shear moduli of bulk vortex configurations can be extracted from these measurements.
