description: The channeling effect of low energy ions along the crystallographic axes and planes of NaI(Tl) crystals is discussed in the framework of corollary investigations on WIMP Dark Matter candidates. In fact, the modeling of this existing effect implies a more complex evaluation of the luminosity yield for low energy recoiling Na and I ions. In the present paper related phenomenological arguments are developed and possible implications are discussed at some extent.

description: Stars aligned in thin stream-like features (feathers), with widths of $δ\sim1-10^{\circ}$ and lengths as large as $Δl\sim180^{\circ}$, have been observed towards the Anticenter of our Galaxy and their properties mapped in abundances and phase-space. We study their origin by analysing similar features arising in an N-body simulation of a Galactic disc interacting with a Sagittarius-like dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Sgr). By following the orbits of the particles identified as contributing to feathers backwards in time, we trace their excitation to one of Sgr's previous pericentric passages. These particles initially span a large range of phase-angles but a tight range of radii, suggesting they provide a probe of populations in distinct annuli in the outer Galactic disc. The structures are long lived and persist after multiple passages on timescales of $\sim4 \,\rm{Gyrs}$. On the sky, they exhibit oscillatory motion that can be traced with a single orbit mapped over much of their full length and with amplitudes and gradients similar to those observed. We demonstrate how these properties of feathers may be exploited to measure the potential, its flattening, as well as infer the strength of recent potential perturbations.

description: We discuss baryogenesis using the flipped $SU(5)$ model for lepton mass matrices. We show that the generalized see-saw mechanism in this model can not only provide MSW neutrino mixing suitable for solving the solar neutrino problem, and supply a hot dark matter candidate ($ν_τ$) with mass $0(10)eV$ as indicated by recent COBE results, but can also naturally account for the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Heavy singlet neutrino decay generates a net lepton asymmetry which is subsequently reprocessed by nonperturbative electroweak interactions. We evaluate the baryon asymmetry so produced in light of the constraints that the COBE observations put on inflationary cosmologies, finding it comfortably consistent with observation.

description: AX J1745.6-2901 is an eclipsing low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) in the Galactic Centre (GC). It shows significant X-ray excess emission during the eclipse phase, and its eclipse light curve shows an asymmetric shape. We use archival XMM-Newton and Chandra observations to study the origin of these peculiar X-ray eclipsing phenomena. We find that the shape of the observed X-ray eclipse light curves depends on both photon energy and the shape of the source extraction region, and also shows differences between the two instruments. By performing detailed simulations for the time-dependent X-ray dust scattering halo, as well as directly modelling the observed eclipse and non-eclipse halo profiles of AX J1745.6-2901, we obtained solid evidence that its peculiar eclipse phenomena are indeed caused by the X-ray dust scattering in multiple foreground dust layers along the line-of-sight (LOS). The apparent dependence on the instruments is caused by different instrumental point-spread-functions. Our results can be used to assess the influence of dust scattering in other eclipsing X-ray sources, and raise the importance of considering the timing effects of dust scattering halo when studying the variability of other X-ray sources in the GC, such as Sgr A*. Moreover, our study of halo eclipse reinforces the existence of a dust layer local to AX J1745.6-2901 as reported by Jin et al. (2017), as well as identifying another dust layer within a few hundred parsecs to Earth, containing up to several tens of percent LOS dust, which is likely to be associated with the molecular clouds in the Solar neighbourhood. The remaining LOS dust is likely to be associated with the molecular clouds located in the Galactic disk in-between.

description: We study Two-Higgs-Doublet Models (2HDM) where Abelian symmetries have been introduced, leading to a drastic reduction in the number of free parameters in the 2HDM. Our analysis is inspired in BGL models, where, as the result of a symmetry of the Lagrangian, there are tree-level scalar mediated Flavour-Changing-Neutral-Currents, with the flavour structure depending only on the CKM matrix. A systematic analysis is done on the various possible schemes, which are classified in different classes, depending on the way the extra symmetries constrain the matrices of couplings defining the flavour structure of the scalar mediated neutral currents. All the resulting flavour textures of the Yukawa couplings are stable under renormalisation since they result from symmetries imposed at the Lagrangian level. We also present a brief phenomenological analysis of the most salient features of each class of symmetry constrained 2HDM.

description: Many scientific studies, especially in the biomedical sciences, generate data measured simultaneously over a multitude of units, over a period of time, and under different conditions or combinations of factors. Often, an important question of interest asked relates to which units behave similarly under different conditions, but measuring the variation over time complicates the analysis significantly. In this article we address such a problem arising from a gene expression study relating to bone aging, and develop a Bayesian statistical method that can simultaneously detect and uncover signals on three levels within such data: factorial, longitudinal, and transcriptional. Our model framework considers both cluster and time-point-specific parameters and these parameters uniquely determine the shapes of the temporal gene expression profiles, allowing the discovery and characterization of latent gene clusters based on similar underlying biological mechanisms. Our methodology was successfully applied to discover transcriptional networks in a microarray data set comparing the transcriptomic changes that occurred during bone aging in male and female mice expressing one or both copies of the bromodomain (Brd2) gene, a transcriptional regulator which exhibits an age-dependent sex-linked bone loss phenotype.
Effective stability against superradiance of Kerr black holes with synchronised hair

description: Kerr black holes with synchronised hair [arXiv:1403.2757, arXiv:1603.02687] are a counter example to the no hair conjecture, in General Relativity minimally coupled to simple matter fields (with mass $μ$) obeying all energy conditions. Since these solutions have, like Kerr, an ergoregion it has been a lingering possibility that they are afflicted by the superradiant instability, the same process that leads to their dynamical formation from Kerr. A recent breakthrough [arXiv:1711.08464] confirmed this instability and computed the corresponding timescales for a sample of solutions. We discuss how these results and other observations support two conclusions: $1)$ starting from the Kerr limit, the increase of hair for fixed coupling $μM$ (where $M$ is the BH mass) increases the timescale of the instability; $2)$ there are hairy solutions for which this timescale, for astrophysical black hole masses, is larger than the age of the Universe. The latter conclusion introduces the limited, but physically relevant concept of effective stability. The former conclusion, allows us to identify an astrophysically viable domain of such effectively stable hairy black holes, occurring, conservatively, for $Mμ\lesssim 0.25$. These are hairy BHs that form dynamically, from the superradiant instability of Kerr, within an astrophysical timescale, but whose own superradiant instability occurs only in a cosmological timescale.

The Form of the Effective Interaction in Harmonic-Oscillator-Based Effective Theory
Creators: name: Haxton, W. C.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: I explore the form of the effective interaction in harmonic-oscillator-based effective theory (HOBET) in next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO). As the included space in a HOBET (as in the shell model) is defined by the oscillator energy, both long-distance (low-momentum) and short-distance (high-momentum) degrees of freedom reside in the high-energy excluded space. A HOBET effective interaction is developed in which a short-range contact-gradient expansion is combined with an exact summation of the relative kinetic energy. By this means the very strong coupling of the included (P) and excluded (Q) spaces by the kinetic energy is removed. One finds that the interplay of QT and QV is governed by a single parameter kappa, the ratio of an observable, the binding energy |E|, to a parameter in the effective theory, the oscillator energy. Once the functional dependence on kappa is identified, the remaining order-by-order subtraction of the short-range physics residing in Q becomes systematic and rapidly converging. Numerical calculations are used to demonstrate how well the resulting expansion reproduces the running of Heff from high scales to a typical shell-model scale of 8 hbar omega. At N3LO various global properties of Heff are reproduced to a typical accuracy of 0.01%, or about 1 keV. The state-dependence of the effective interaction has been a troubling problem in nuclear physics, and is embodied in the energy dependence of Heff(|E|) in the Bloch-Horowitz formalism. It is shown that almost all of this state dependence is also extracted in the procedures followed here, isolated in the analytic dependence of Heff on kappa. Thus there exists a simple, Hermitian Heff that can be use in spectral calculations.

description: We propose a novel method to quantify the similarity between an impression (Q) from an unknown source and a test impression (K) from a known source. Using the property of geometrical congruence in the impressions, the degree of correspondence is quantified using ideas from graph theory and maximum clique (MC). The algorithm uses the x and y coordinates of the edges in the images as the data. We focus on local areas in Q and the corresponding regions in K and extract features for comparison. Using pairs of images with known origin, we train a random forest to classify pairs into mates and non-mates. We collected impressions from 60 pairs of shoes of the same brand and model, worn over six months. Using a different set of very similar shoes, we evaluated the performance of the algorithm in terms of the accuracy with which it correctly classified images into source classes. Using classification error rates and ROC curves, we compare the proposed method to other algorithms in the literature and show that for these data, our method shows good classification performance relative to other methods. The algorithm can be implemented with the R package shoeprintr.
Gravitational Radiation from Colliding Vacuum Bubbles: Envelope Approximation to Many-Bubble Collisions

description: We introduce an approximation to calculate the gravitational radiation produced by the collision of true-vacuum bubbles that is simple enough to allow the simulation of a phase transition by the collision of hundreds of bubbles. This ``envelope approximation'' neglects the complicated ``overlap'' regions of colliding bubbles and follows only the evolution of the bubble walls. The approximation accurately reproduces previous results for the gravitational radiation from the collision of two scalar-field vacuum bubbles. Using a bubble nucleation rate given by $Γ= Γ_0 e^{βt}$, we simulate a phase transition by colliding 20 to 200 bubbles; the fraction of vacuum energy released into gravity waves is $E_{\rm GW}/E_{\rm vac} = 0.06(H/β)^2$ and the peak of the spectrum occurs at $ω_{\rm max}=1.6β$ ($H^2=8πGρ/3$ is the Hubble constant associated with the false-vacuum phase). The spectrum is very similar to that in the two-bubble case, except that the efficiency of gravity-wave generation is about five times higher, presumably due to the fact that a given bubble collides with many others. Finally, we consider two further ``statistical'' approximations, where the gravitational radiation is computed as an incoherent sum over individual bubbles weighted by the distribution of bubble sizes. These approximations provide reasonable estimates of the gravitational-wave spectrum with far less computation.

Supermassive black holes with higher Eddington ratios preferentially form in gas-rich galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: The Eddington ratio ($λ_{\rm Edd}$) of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is a fundamental parameter that governs the cosmic growth of SMBHs. Although gas mass accretion onto SMBHs is sustained when they are surrounded by large amounts of gas, little is known about the molecular content of galaxies, particularly those hosting super-Eddington SMBHs ($λ_{\rm Edd} > 1$: the key phase of SMBH growth). Here, we compiled reported optical and $^{12}$CO(1--0) data of local quasars to characterize their hosts. We found that higher $λ_{\rm Edd}$ SMBHs tend to reside in gas rich (i.e., high gas mass to stellar mass fraction = $f_{\rm gas}$) galaxies. We used two methods to make this conclusion: one uses black hole mass as a surrogate for stellar mass by assuming a local co-evolutionary relationship, and the other directly uses stellar masses estimated from near-infrared observations. The $f_{\rm gas}$--$λ_{\rm Edd}$ correlation we found concurs with the cosmic decreasing trend in $λ_{\rm Edd}$, as cold molecular gas is primarily consumed by star formation. This correlation qualitatively matches predictions of recent semi-analytic models about the cosmic downsizing of SMBHs as well. As the gas mass surface density would eventually be a key parameter controlling mass accretion, we need high-resolution observations to identify further differences in the molecular properties around super-Eddington and sub-Eddington SMBHs.

We evaluate the production rates of the $h_2$ in the SM fermionic and bosonic final states in addition to $a_1a_1$, $h_1h_1$ and $Za_1$ final states. It is observed that the size of the signal rates in some regions of the NMSSM parameter space is quite large and that could help extracting the $h_2$ signals at the LHC through a variety of decay channels.

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We examine matter-enhanced neutrino flavor transformation ($ν_{τ(μ)}\rightleftharpoonsν_e$) in the region above the neutrino sphere in Type II supernovae. Our treatment explicitly includes contributions to the neutrino-propagation Hamiltonian from neutrino-neutrino forward scattering. A proper inclusion of these contributions shows that they have a completely negligible effect on the range of $ν_e$-$ν_{τ(μ)}$ vacuum mass-squared difference, $δm^2$, and vacuum mixing angle, $θ$, or equivalently $\sin^22θ$, required for enhanced supernova shock re-heating. When neutrino background effects are included, we find that $r$-process nucleosynthesis from neutrino-heated supernova ejecta remains a sensitive probe of the mixing between a light $ν_e$ and a $ν_{τ(μ)}$ with a cosmologically significant mass. Neutrino-neutrino scattering contributions are found to have a generally small effect on the $(δm^2,\ \sin^22θ)$ parameter region probed by $r$-process nucleosynthesis. We point out that the nonlinear effects of the neutrino background extend the range of sensitivity of $r$-process nucleosynthesis to smaller values of $δm^2$.

title: Essays on misspecified models
Creators: name: Thysen, Heidi Christina
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2021

description: These essays examine how relaxing common assumptions affect the strategic interactions between agents. It investigates how the presence of an agent with a simplified causal model influences the contract and disclosure of information with other agents, as well as the impact of changes to the institutional settings. By theoretically modelling these choices, it aims to improve the understanding of equilibrium effects and thereby contributing to debates about the optimal design of contracts, strategic information transmission and political budget cycles and the impact of assumptions. The first chapter analyses the contract between a firm owner and a employee, when the firm cannot observe the employee's action and the employee's belief about how her action influences the contractible variable is governed by a misspecified causal model. It contributes to the existing literature by explicitly modelling the source of the employee's misspecified beliefs. This approach allows us to shed light on the variables the firm owner would want to include in the contract given the employee's mistakes as well as the intermediate variables the employee needs to include in her causal model in order to act as if she understands how her action influence the contractible variable. The second chapter examines how an informed agent conveys information to an uninformed agent when he can simultaneously influence the messages she receives and how she interprets them. This relaxes the assumption that agents always understand the meaning of messages in equilibrium. The third chapter analyses how political budget cycles change when the politician in charge can choose to call for a snap election in periods before the end of the term. This contributes to the existing literature by taking the equilibrium effects of early election into consideration and thereby the effect of the continuation value of being in office.

description: Researchers are often perplexed when their machine learning algorithms are required to deal with complex number. Various strategies are commonly employed to project complex number into real number, although it is frequently sacrificing the information contained in the complex number. This paper proposes a new method and four techniques to represent complex number as real number, without having to sacrifice the information contained. The proposed techniques are also capable of retrieving the original complex number from the representing real number, with little to none of information loss. The promising applicability of the proposed techniques has been demonstrated and worth to receive further exploration in representing the complex number.

description: We introduce a new quantum protocol for solving detectable Byzantine agreement (also called detectable broadcast) between three parties, and also for solving the detectable liar detection problem. The protocol is suggested by the properties of a four-qubit entangled state, and the classical part of the protocol is simpler than that of previous proposals. In addition, we present an experimental implementation of the protocol using four-photon entanglement.

description: We study the vacuum structure of gauge theories with eight supercharges. It has been recently discovered that in the Higgs branch of $5d$ and $6d$ SQCD theories with eight supercharges, the new massless states, arising when the gauge coupling is taken to infinity, can be described in terms of Coulomb branches of $3d ~\mathcal N=4$ quiver gauge theories. The description of this new phenomenon draws from the ideas discovered in the analysis of nilpotent orbits as Higgs and Coulomb branches of $3d$ theories and promotes the Higgs mechanism known as the Kraft-Procesi transition to the status of a new operation between quivers. This is the quiver subtraction. This paper establishes this operation formally and examines some immediate consequences. One is the extension of the physical realization of Kraft-Procesi transitions from the classical to the exceptional Lie algebras. Another result is the extension from special nilpotent orbits to non-special ones. One further consequence is the analysis of the effect in $5d ~\mathcal N=1$ SQCD of integrating out a massive quark while the gauge coupling remains infinite. In general, the subtraction of quivers sheds light on the different types of singularities within the Coulomb branch and the structure of the massless states that arise at those singular points; including the nature of the new Higgs branches that open up. This allows for a systematic analysis of mixed branches of $3d ~\mathcal N=4$ quivers that do not necessarily have a simple embedding in string theory. The subtraction of two quivers is an extremely simple resource for the theoretical physicist interested in the vacuum structure of gauge theories, and yet its power is so remarkable that is bound to play a crucial role in the coming discoveries of new and exciting physics in $5$ and $6$ dimensions.

Self-organized oscillations of Leidenfrost drops

description: In the Leidenfrost effect, a thin layer of evaporated vapor forms between a liquid and a hot solid. The complex interactions between the solid, liquid, and vapor phases can lead to rich dynamics even in a single Leidenfrost drop. Here we investigate the self-organized oscillations of Leidenfrost drops that are excited by a constant flow of evaporated vapor beneath the drop. We show that for small Leidenfrost drops, the frequency of a recently reported "breathing mode" can be explained by a simple balance of gravitational and surface tension forces. For large Leidenfrost drops, azimuthal star-shaped oscillations are observed. Our previous work showed how the coupling between the rapid evaporated vapor flow and the vapor-liquid interface excites the star oscillations (Ma \textit{et al., Phys. Rev. Fluids}, 2, 2017, 031602). In our experiments, star-shaped oscillation modes of $n=2$ to 13 are observed in different liquids, the number of observed modes depends sensitively on the liquid viscosity. Here we expand on this work by directly comparing the oscillations with theoretical predictions, and show how the oscillations are initiated by a parametric forcing mechanism through pressure oscillations in the vapor layer. The pressure oscillations are driven by the capillary waves of a characteristic wavelength beneath the drop. These capillary waves can be generated by a large shear stress at the liquid-vapor interface due to the rapid flow of evaporated vapor. We also explore potential effects of thermal convection in the liquid. Although the measured Rayleigh number is significantly larger than the critical value, the frequency (wavelength) of the oscillations depends only on the capillary length of the liquid, and is independent of the drop radius and substrate temperature. Thus convection seems to play a minor role in Leidenfrost drop oscillations, which are mostly hydrodynamic in origin.
title: Chicano theatre in transition: The experience of El Teatro de la Esperanza

Subjects: subject: Theater, Hispanic American studies.

description: Chicano theatre is the theatrical expression of people of Mexican origin resident in the United States. It emerged in the mid-1960s in tandem with Chicano participation in the American civil rights movement and began to revive and recuperate a long history of theatre in Spanish in North America. Initially, it was a theatre of, and for, the marginalised people of Mexican ancestry who suffered discrimination in the United States and encompassed a rejection of American society and culture and a commitment to the struggle for social justice. Through activism, Chicanos were able to benefit from increased grant support to minority arts but with the waning of the civil rights movement and the loss of this political and social impetus, funding for Chicano theatre became scarce and its practitioners were obliged to find new modes of survival, including the courting of an affluent audience base. El Teatro de la Esperanza of Santa Barbara, California, is one group which has had to make this transition, and this thesis follows their development from amateur theatre group to professional troupe, still aiming to perform for the disenfranchised, but with links to commercial theatre. The historical and social context of Chicano theatre is also studied. Chapter One examines the history of people of Mexican origin in the United States and illustrates that after the Mexican American War of 1846-1848 Anglo Americans invaded and colonized Mexico and subjected her inhabitants to a century of discrimination on the basis of race, language and culture. However, Chapter Two illustrates that far from submitting to this oppression, Mexicans and Chicanos have struggled against it, particularly in the 1960s. Part of this resistance has been cultural, and Chapter Three outlines the development of Chicano theatre. While stressing its achievements, it nonetheless illustrates that while the groups that have survived into the 1990s have developed in terms of artistry, this is often sacrificed to narrow social analyses in terms of content. This criticism is ultimately apt for El Teatro de la Esperanza. Their history is outlined in Chapter Four and the remainder of the chapters, from Chapter Five to Chapter Nine, study their work over a twenty-five-year period. This thesis concludes that they have sought, not entirely successfully, to evolve a model through which to perform left-wing theatre in politically conservative times without abandoning their original working-class audiences.

description: The ionization energy of ortho-H$_2$ has been determined to be $E^\mathrm{o}_\mathrm{I}(\mathrm{H}_2)/(hc)=124\,357.238\,062(25)$ cm$^{-1}$ from measurements of the GK(1,1)--X(0,1) interval by Doppler-free two-photon spectroscopy using a narrow band 179-nm laser source and the ionization energy of the GK(1,1) state by continuous-wave near-infrared laser spectroscopy. $E^\mathrm{o}_\mathrm{I}$(H$_2$) was used to derive the dissociation energy of H$_2$, $D^{N=1}_{0}$(H$_2$), at $35\,999.582\,894(25)$ cm$^{-1}$ with a precision that is more than one order of magnitude better than all previous results. The new result challenges calculations of this quantity and represents a benchmark value for future relativistic and QED calculations of molecular energies.

description: We construct $N=4$ supersymmetric KdV equation as a hamiltonian flow on the $N=4\;SU(2)$ super Virasoro algebra. The $N=4$ KdV superfield, the hamiltonian and the related Poisson structure are concisely formulated in $1D \;N=4$ harmonic superspace. The most general hamiltonian is shown to necessarily involve $SU(2)$ breaking parameters which are combined in a traceless rank 2 $SU(2)$ tensor. First nontrivial conserved charges of $N=4$ super KdV (of dimensions 2 and 4) are found to exist if and only if the $SU(2)$ breaking tensor is a bilinear of some $SU(2)$ vector with a fixed length proportional to the inverse of the central charge of $N=4\;SU(2)$ algebra. After the reduction to $N=2$ this restricted version of $N=4$ super KdV goes over to the $a=4$ integrable case of $N=2$ super KdV and so is expected to be integrable. We show that it is bi-hamiltonian like its $N=2$ prototype.
