description: ï¿½ 2015 K. Kanazawa et al. We present results for transverse single-spin asymmetries in proton-proton collisions at kinematics relevant for AFTER, a proposed fixed-target experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. These include predictions for pion, jet, and direct photon production from analytical formulas already available in the literature. We also discuss specific measurements that will benefit from the higher luminosity of AFTER, which could help resolve an almost 40-year puzzle of what causes transverse single-spin asymmetries in proton-proton collisions.

The electric dipole moment of the neutron from Nf = 2+1+1 twisted mass fermions

description: We extract the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) dn on configurations produced with Nf = 2+1+1 twisted mass fermions with lattice spacing of a ≃ 0.082fm and a light quark mass that correpsonds to Mπ ≃ 373 MeV. We do so by evaluating the CP-odd form factor F3 for small values of the CP-violation parameter θ in the limit of zero momentum transfer. This limit is extracted using the usual parametrization but in addition position space methods. The topological charge is computed via cooling and gradient flow using the Wilson, Symanzik treelevel improved and Iwasaki actions for smoothing. We obtain consistent results for all choices of smoothing procedures and methods to extract F3 at zero momentum transfer. For the ensemble analyzed we find a value of nEDM of dn/θ = 0.045(6)(1)e · fm.
Semi-supervised learning for structured regression on partially observed attributed graphs

description: Copyright © SIAM. Conditional probabilistic graphical models provide a powerful framework for structured regression in spatio-temporal datasets with complex correlation patterns. However, in real-life applications a large fraction of observations is often missing, which can severely limit the representational power of these models. In this paper we propose a Marginalized Gaussian Conditional Random Fields (m-GCRF) structured regression model for dealing with missing labels in partially observed temporal attributed graphs. This method is aimed at learning with both labeled and unlabeled parts and effectively predicting future values in a graph. The method is even capable of learning from nodes for which the response variable is never observed in history, which poses problems for many state-of-the-art models that can handle missing data. The proposed model is characterized for various missingness mechanisms on 500 synthetic graphs. The benefits of the new method are also demonstrated on a challenging application for predicting precipitation based on partial observations of climate variables in a temporal graph that spans the entire continental US. We also show that the method can be useful for optimizing the costs of data collection in climate applications via active reduction of the number of weather stations to consider. In experiments on these real-world and synthetic datasets we show that the proposed model is consistently more accurate than alternative semi-supervised structured models, as well as models that either use imputation to deal with missing values or simply ignore them altogether.
Room temperature multiferroism in CaTcO3 by interface engineering
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2015
Subjects: cond-mat.mtrl-sci

description: © 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. We carry out systematic studies of the structural instabilities of the new perovskite family ATcO3 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) by first-principles calculations. The orthorhombic ground state of CaTcO3 and SrTcO3 are found to be closely related to structural distortions due to the zone boundary phonon instabilities. We also identify a weak ferroelectric instability in CaTcO3, which is however suppressed at the ground state due to the large antiferrodistortive mode. We show that the ferroelectricity in CaTcO3 can be induced in the CaTcO3/BaTcO3 superlattices. Two types of interface mechanisms are involved, one is realized by the mismatch of the antipolar modes between two parent bulk materials and the other is the suppression of antiferrodistortive mode at interface. The Néel temperature of CaTcO3/BaTcO3 superlattices is found to be ∼816 K, indicating that CaTcO3 can be engineered into a new room temperature multiferroic material.

description: © European Mathematical Society. We construct quasi-isometric embeddings from right-angled Artin groups into the outer automorphism group of a free group.

Toward this goal, we develop tools in the free group setting that mirror those for surface groups and discuss various analogs of subsurface projection.
Recent progress in hadron structure from Lattice QCD

Subjects: hep-lat

description: We review recent progress in hadron structure using lattice QCD simulations, with main focus in the evaluation of nucleon quantities such as the axial and tensor charges, and the spin content of the nucleon, using simulations at pion masses close to the physical value. We highlight developments on the evaluation of the gluon moment, a new direct approach to compute quark parton distributions functions on the lattice, as well as, the neutron electric dipole moment. A discussion of the systematic uncertainties and the computation of the disconnected contributions using dynamical simulations is also included.
Renormalization of local quark-bilinear operators for N f=3 flavors of stout link nonperturbative clover fermions
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2015
Subjects: hep-lat

description: © 2015 American Physical Society. The renormalization factors of local quark-bilinear operators are computed nonperturbatively for Nf=3 flavors of stout link nonperturbative clover (SLiNC) fermions, with emphasis on the various procedures for the chiral and continuum extrapolations. The simulations are performed at a lattice spacing a=0.074fm, and for five values of the pion mass in the range of 290-465 MeV, allowing a safe and stable chiral extrapolation. Emphasis is given in the subtraction of the well-known pion pole which affects the renormalization factor of the pseudoscalar current. We also compute the inverse propagator and the Green's functions of the local bilinears to one loop in perturbation theory. We investigate lattice artifacts by computing them perturbatively to second order as well as to all orders in the lattice spacing. The renormalization conditions are defined in the RI′-MOM scheme, for both the perturbative and nonperturbative results. The renormalization factors, obtained at different values of the renormalization scale, are translated to the MS¯ scheme and are evolved perturbatively to 2 GeV. Any residual dependence on the initial renormalization scale is eliminated by an extrapolation to the continuum limit. We also study the various sources of systematic errors. Particular care is taken in correcting the nonperturbative estimates by subtracting lattice artifacts computed to one-loop perturbation theory using the same action. We test two different methods, by subtracting either the O(g2a2) contributions, or the complete (all orders in a) one-loop lattice artifacts.

description: Many experiments are currently using or proposing to use large area GEM foils in their detectors, which is creating a need for commercially available GEM foils. Currently CERN is the only main distributor of GEM foils, however with the growing interest in GEM technology keeping up with the increasing demand for GEM foils will be difficult. Thus the commercialization of GEM foils has been established by Tech-Etch Inc. of Plymouth, MA, USA using the single-mask technique, which is capable of producing GEM foils over a meter long. To date Tech-Etch has successfully manufactured 10 $\times$ 10 cm$^2$ and 40 $\times$ 40 cm$^2$ GEM foils. We will report on the electrical and geometrical properties, along with the inner and outer hole diameter size uniformity of these foils. Furthermore, Tech-Etch has now begun producing even larger GEM foils of 50 $\times$ 50 cm$^2$, and are currently looking into how to accommodate GEM foils on the order of one meter long. The Tech-Etch foils were found to have excellent electrical properties. The measured mean optical properties were found to reflect the desired parameters and are consistent with those measured in double-mask GEM foils, as well as single-mask GEM foils produced at CERN. They also show good hole diameter uniformity over the active area.
Sterile neutrino production in models with low reheating temperatures

Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: By numerically solving the appropriate Boltzmann equations, we study the production of sterile neutrinos in models with low reheating temperatures. We take into account the production in oscillations as well as in direct decays and compute the sterile neutrino primordial spectrum, the effective number of neutrino species, and the sterile neutrino contribution to the mass density of the Universe as a function of the mixing and the reheating parameters. It is shown that sterile neutrinos with non-negligible mixing angles do not necessarily lead to $N_ν\sim 4$ and that sterile neutrinos may have the right relic density to explain the dark matter of the Universe. If dark matter consists of sterile neutrinos produced in oscillations, X-rays measurements set a strong limit on the reheating temperature, $\tr\gtrsim 7\mev$. We also point out that the direct decay opens up a new production mechanism for sterile neutrino dark matter where cosmological constraints can be satisfied.

Comparative validity of a prototype scale construction strategy

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis examined the predictive validity of different strategies for constructing personality inventory scales. The ACL was used as a common item pool to construct sets of 8 scales by each of 6 strategies. A "prototype strategy" was introduced in this study and its validity was compared with 4 traditional strategies and 1 random strategy in predicting 21 criterion measures. The 4 traditional strategies compared were: empirical, factor analytic, rational, and internal consistency. The subjects were 234 paid University of British Columbia fraternity males ranging in age from 19-28 who supplied ACL responses and the 21 criterion measures. Included in the 21 criteria were peer ratings on the traits of achievement, dominance, nurturance, affiliation, exhibition, autonomy, aggression, and deference; university GPA; high and low peer nominations on the dimensions of leadership, likeability, academic potential, athletic potential, heterosexuality, and success. Multiple regression procedures were used in a double cross-validation design. Results indicated that the prototype strategy did better than all of the other strategies and significantly out-performed the rational strategy which it was designed to improve upon.

description: © 2015 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC. We give an algorithm for presenting S-unit groups of an order in a definite rational quaternion algebra B such that for every p S at which B splits, the localization of at p is maximal, and all left ideals of of norm p are principal. We then apply this to give presentations for projective S-unit groups of the Hurwitz order in Hamiltons quaternions over the rational field. To our knowledge, this provides the first explicit presentations of an S-arithmetic lattice in a semisimple Lie group with S large. We also include some discussion and experimentation related to the congruence subgroup problem, which is open for S-units of the Hurwitz order when S contains at least two odd primes.

description: Many complex human and natural phenomena can usefully be represented as networks describing the relationships between individuals. While these relationships are typically intermittent, previous research has used network representations that aggregate the relationships at discrete intervals. However, such an aggregation discards important temporal information, thus inhibiting our understanding of the networks dynamic behaviour and evolution. We have recorded patterns of human urban encounter using Bluetooth technology thus retaining the temporal properties of this network. Here we show how this temporal information influences the structural properties of the network. We show that the temporal properties of human urban encounter are scale-free, leading to an overwhelming proportion of brief encounters between individuals. While previous research has shown preferential attachment to result in scale-free connectivity in aggregated network data, we found that scale-free connectivity results from the temporal properties of the network. In addition, we show that brief encounters act as weak social ties in the diffusion of non-expiring information, yet persistent encounters provide the means for sustaining time-expiring information through a network.

The Study of Dust Formation of Four Type Ibn Supernovae

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

description: In this paper, we investigate the early-time optical$-$near-infrared (NIR) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of four Type Ibn supernovae (SNe). We find that the SEDs of SN~2010al, LSQ13ddu, and SN~2015G can be well explained by the single-component blackbody model, while the SEDs of OGLE-2012-SN-006 cannot. We invoke the double-component model assuming that the SEDs were produced by the SN photosphere and the heated dust to fit the optical$-$NIR SEDs of the four SNe Ibn, finding that the derived temperatures of the dust associated with OGLE-2012-SN-006 favor the scenario that the dust consists of the graphite grains, and the mass and temperature of dust are $\sim$$0.5-2.0\times10^{-3}~M_\odot$ and $\sim$ $1200-1300$ K, respectively. Moreover, our fits for SN~2010al, LSQ13ddu, and SN~2015G show that the upper limits of the masses of the dust associated with the three SNe Ibn are respectively $1.45\times 10^{-5}~M_\odot$, $5.9\times 10^{-7}~M_\odot$, and $2.4\times 10^{-7}~M_\odot$. A further analysis demonstrates that the inferred radius of the dust shell surrounding OGLE-2012-SN-006 is significantly larger than that of the SN ejecta at early epochs, indicating that the NIR excesses of the SEDs of OGLE-2012-SN-006 were produced by a preexisting dust shell. Our study for the early-time SEDs of four SNe Ibn, together with the previous studies and the fact that some SNe showed the evidence of dust formation at the late-time SEDs, indicates that at least $\sim$1/3 of SNe Ibn show evidence for dust formation.

description: We study the importance of lattice refinement in achieving a successful inflationary era. We solve, in the continuum limit, the second order difference equation governing the quantum evolution in loop quantun cosmology, assuming both a fixed and a dynamically varying lattice in a suitable refinement model. We thus impose a constraint on the potential of a scalar field, so that the continuum approximation is not broken. Considering that such a scalar field could play the role of the inflaton, we obtain a second constraint on the inflationary potential so that there is consistency with the CMB data on large angular scales. For a $m^2ϕ^2/2$ inflationary model, we combine the two constraints on the inflaton potential to impose an upper limit on $m$, which is severely fine-tuned in the case of a fixed lattice. We thus conclude that lattice refinement is necessary to achieve a natural inflationary model.

description: © 2014 Elsevier B.V. We study categorial properties of the operadic twisting functor Tw. In particular, we show that Tw is a comonad. Coalgebras of this comonad are operads for which a natural notion of twisting by Maurer-Cartan elements exists. We give a large class of examples, including the classical cases of the Lie, associative and Gerstenhaber operads, and their infinity-counterparts Lie∞, As∞, Ger∞. We also show that Tw is well behaved with respect to the homotopy theory of operads. As an application we show that every solution of Deligne's conjecture is homotopic to a solution that is compatible with twisting.

description: The energy-level structure of a quantum system plays a fundamental role in determining its behavior and manifests itself in a discrete absorption and emission spectrum. Conventionally, spectra are probed via frequency spectroscopy whereby the frequency νof a harmonic driving field is varied to fulfill the conditions ΔE = h ν, where the driving field is resonant with the level separation ΔE (h is Planck's constant). Although this technique has been successfully employed in a variety of physical systems, including natural and artificial atoms and molecules, its application is not universally straightforward, and becomes extremely challenging for frequencies in the range of 10's and 100's of gigahertz. Here we demonstrate an alternative approach, whereby a harmonic driving field sweeps the atom through its energy-level avoided crossings at a fixed frequency, surmounting many of the limitations of the conventional approach. Spectroscopic information is obtained from the amplitude dependence of the system response. The resulting ``spectroscopy diamonds'' contain interference patterns and population inversion that serve as a fingerprint of the atom's spectrum. By analyzing these features, we determine the energy spectrum of a manifold of states with energies from 0.01 to 120 GHz \times h in a superconducting artificial atom, using a driving frequency near 0.1 GHz. This approach provides a means to manipulate and characterize systems over a broad bandwidth, using only a single driving frequency that may be orders of magnitude smaller than the energy scales being probed.

description: Heterostructures made from topological and magnetic insulators promise to form excellent platforms for new electronic and spintronic functionalities mediated by interfacial effects. We report the results of a first-principles density functional theory study of the geometric, electronic structure, and magnetic properties of EuS(111)/Bi$_2$Se$_3$ interface, including van der Waals and relativistic spin-orbit effects. In contrast to previous theoretical studies, we find no appreciable magnetic anisotropy in such a heterostructure. We also do not see additional induced magnetization at the interface or the magnetic proximity effect on the topological states. This is due to the localized nature of Eu moments, and because of a partial charge transfer of $\sim$0.5 electron from Eu to Se. The formation of the surface dipole shifts the Dirac cone about 0.4~eV below the chemical potential, and the associated electrostatic screening moves the topological state from the first to the second quintuple layer of Bi$_2$Se$_3$.

description: OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of early compositional changes in healing articular cartilage is critical for understanding tissue repair and for therapeutic decision-making. Fourier transform infrared imaging spectroscopy (FT-IRIS) can be used to assess the molecular composition of harvested repair tissue. Furthermore, use of an infrared fiber-optic probe (IFOP) has the potential for translation to a clinical setting to provide molecular information in situ. In the current study, we determined the feasibility of IFOP assessment of cartilage repair tissue in a rabbit model, and assessed correlations with gold-standard histology. DESIGN: Bilateral osteochondral defects were generated in mature white New Zealand rabbits, and IFOP data obtained from defect and adjacent regions at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 16 weeks postsurgery. Tissues were assessed histologically using the modified O'Driscoll score, by FT-IRIS, and by partial least squares (PLS) modeling of IFOP spectra. RESULTS: The FT-IRIS parameters of collagen content, proteoglycan content, and collagen index correlated significantly with modified O'Driscoll score (P = 0.05, 0.002, and 0.02, respectively), indicative of their sensitivity to tissue healing. Repair tissue IFOP spectra were distinguished from normal tissue IFOP spectra in all samples by PLS analysis. However, the PLS model for prediction of histological score had a high prediction error, which was attributed to the spectral information being acquired from the tissue surface only. CONCLUSION: The strong correlations between FT-IRIS data and histological score support further development of the IFOP technique for clinical applications, although further studies to optimize data collection from the full sample depths are required.

description: The theory of weak quantum measurements is developed for quantum dot spin qubits. Building on recent experiments, we propose a control cycle to prepare, manipulate, weakly measure, and perform quantum state tomography. This is accomplished using a combination of the physics of electron spin resonance, spin blockade, and Coulomb blockade, resulting in a charge transport process. We investigate the influence of the surrounding nuclear spin environment, and find a regime where this environment significantly simplifies the dynamics of the weak measurement process, making this theoretical proposal realistic with existing experimental technology. We further consider spin-echo refocusing to combat dephasing, as well as discuss a realization of "quantum undemolition", whereby the effects of quantum state disturbance are undone.

description: In this work, we present the three-dimensional Maxwell Carroll gravity by considering the ultra-relativistic limit of the Maxwell Chern-Simons gravity theory defined in three spacetime dimensions. We show that an extension of the Maxwellian Carroll symmetry is necessary in order for the invariant tensor of the ultra-relativistic Maxwellian algebra to be non-degenerate. Consequently, we discuss the origin of the aforementioned algebra and theory as a flat limit. We show that the theoretical setup with cosmological constant yielding the extended Maxwellian Carroll Chern-Simons gravity in the vanishing cosmological constant limit is based on an enlarged extended version of the Carroll symmetry. Indeed, the latter exhibits a non-degenerate invariant tensor allowing the proper construction of a Chern-Simons gravity theory which reproduces the extended Maxwellian Carroll gravity in the flat limit.

description: The Battle of the Sexes describes asymmetric conflicts in mating behavior of males and females. Males can be philanderer or faithful, while females are either fast or coy, leading to a cyclic dynamics. The adjusted replicator equation predicts stable coexistence of all four strategies. In this situation, we consider the effects of fluctuations stemming from a finite population size. We show that they unavoidably lead to extinction of two strategies in the population. However, the typical time until extinction occurs strongly prolongs with increasing system size. In the meantime, a quasi-stationary probability distribution forms that is anomalously flat in the vicinity of the coexistence state. This behavior originates in a vanishing linear deterministic drift near the fixed point. We provide numerical data as well as an analytical approach to the mean extinction time and the quasi-stationary probability distribution.

description: Empathic accuracy (EA) is the therapist variable most frequently associated with positive client outcomes, and is a skill that can improve with training (Barone et al., 2005; Forrester, Kershaw, Moss, & Hughes, 2008). EA is heterogeneous in nature, comprising both affective and cognitive components, yet very little research has compared the ability of various assessments to accurately reflect these nuances. Theoretically, therapists should be more accurate on self-report measures of EA than non-therapists, and the convergent validity of these subjective measures should be higher with objective measures as a result. This study compared the scores of 36 therapists (clinical psychology students) and 36 "non-therapists" (age and gender matched controls) on self-report measures of EA as well as a video-based performance task in which participants' heart rates were measured as they attempted to infer the thoughts and feelings of a videotaped woman while she narrated a prior traumatic experience. It was hypothesized that therapist scores would show stronger convergent validity than non-therapist controls, and that this would strengthen with clinical training. Analyses revealed predominantly small and non-significant correlations across all indices-pairings in the sample as a whole. However, correlations of self-report and physiological assessments of affective EA, as well as global and study-specific measures of cognitive EA were significantly stronger among therapists than non-therapists. These results indicate that EA measures may reflect higher convergent validity among therapists than non-therapist controls.

description: Combining Scanning Gate Microscopy (SGM) experiments and simulations, we demonstrate low temperature imaging of electron probability density $|Ψ|^{2}(x,y)$ in embedded mesoscopic quantum rings (QRs). The tip-induced conductance modulations share the same temperature dependence as the Aharonov-Bohm effect, indicating that they originate from electron wavefunction interferences. Simulations of both $|Ψ|^{2}(x,y)$ and SGM conductance maps reproduce the main experimental observations and link fringes in SGM images to $|Ψ|^{2}(x,y)$.

description: The interference between repeated Landau-Zener transitions in a qubit swept through an avoided level crossing results in Stueckelberg oscillations in qubit magnetization. The resulting oscillatory patterns are a hallmark of the coherent strongly-driven regime in qubits, quantum dots and other two-level systems. The two-dimensional Fourier transforms of these patterns are found to exhibit a family of one-dimensional curves in Fourier space, in agreement with recent observations in a superconducting qubit. We interpret these images in terms of time evolution of the quantum phase of qubit state and show that they can be used to probe dephasing mechanisms in the qubit.

description: When double neutron star or neutron star-black hole binaries merge, the final remnant may comprise a central solar-mass black hole surrounded by a 0.01-0.1 solar masses torus. The subsequent evolution of this disc may be responsible for short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs). A comparable amount of mass is ejected into eccentric orbits and will eventually fall back to the merger site after approximately 0.01 seconds. In this Paper, we investigate analytically the fate of the fallback matter, which may provide a luminous signal long after the disc is exhausted. We find that matter in the eccentric tail returns at a super-Eddington rate and is eventually (0.1 sec) unable to cool via neutrino emission and accrete all the way to the black hole. Therefore, contrary to previous claims, our analysis suggests that fallback matter is not an efficient source of late time accretion power and is unlikely to cause the late flaring activity observed in SGRB afterglows. The fallback matter rather forms a radiation-driven wind or a bound atmosphere. In both cases, the emitting plasma is very opaque and photons are released with a degraded energy in the X-ray band. We therefore suggest that compact binary mergers could be followed by an "X-ray renaissance", as late as several days to weeks after the merger. This might be observed by the next generation of X-ray detectors.
