Low Freeze-out Temperature and High Collective Velocities in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions
Creators: name: Nix, J. Rayford
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: On the basis of a nine-parameter expanding source model that includes special relativity, quantum statistics, resonance decays, and freeze-out on a realistic hypersurface in spacetime, we analyze in detail invariant pi+, pi-, K+, and K- one-particle multiplicity distributions and pi+ and K+ two-particle correlations in nearly central collisions of Si + Au at a laboratory bombarding energy per nucleon of 14.6 GeV/c. By considering separately the one-particle data and the correlation data, we find that the central baryon density, nuclear temperature, transverse collective velocity, longitudinal collective velocity, and source velocity are determined primarily by one-particle multiplicity distributions and that the transverse radius, longitudinal proper time, width in proper time, and pion incoherence fraction are determined primarily by two-particle correlations. By considering separately the pion data and the kaon data, we find that although the pion freeze-out occurs somewhat later than the kaon freeze-out, the 99% confidence-level error bars associated with the two freeze-outs overlap. These and other detailed studies confirm our earlier conclusion based on the simultaneous consideration of the pion and kaon one-particle and correlation data that the freeze-out temperature is less than 100 MeV and that both the longitudinal and transverse collective velocities--which are anti-correlated with the temperature--are substantial. We also discuss the flaws in several previous analyses that yielded a much higher freeze-out temperature of approximately 140 MeV for both this reaction and other reactions involving heavier projectiles and/or higher bombarding energies.

description: Nonrelativistic bound states are studied using an effective field theory. Large logarithms in the effective theory can be summed using the velocity renormalization group. For QED, one can determine the structure of the leading and next-to-leading order series for the energy, and compute corrections up to order alpha^8 ln^3 alpha, which are relevant for the present comparison between theory and experiment. For QCD, one can compute the velocity renormalization group improved quark potentials. Using these to compute the renormalization group improved t-tbar production cross-section near threshold gives a result with scale uncertainties of 2%, a factor of 10 smaller than existing fixed order calculations.

description: We calculate photoexcitation amplitudes for several nucleon and delta resonances. We use a chiral quark model including two-body exchange currents. The two-body currents give important contributions. For the delta (1232) and the D13 (1520) we observe that the individual exchange current contributions considerably cancel each other while in the case of the Roper resonance and the S11 (1535) we get a reinforcement of the two-body amplitudes. In comparison with present experimental data, we obtain both for the S11 (1535) and for the Roper resonance an improvement with respect to the impulse approximation.

description: Quantization of gauge theories on characteristic surfaces and in the light-cone gauge is discussed. Implementation of the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription for the spurious singularity is shown to require two distinct null planes, with independent degrees of freedom initialized on each. The relation of this theory to the usual light-cone formulation of gauge field theory, using a single null plane, is described. A connection is established between this formalism and a recently given operator solution to the Schwinger model in the light-cone gauge.

Holographic three-point correlators in the Schrodinger/dipole CFT correspondence

description: We calculate, for the first time, three-point correlation functions involving "heavy" operators in the Schrodinger/null-dipole CFT correspondence at strong coupling. In particular, we focus on the three-point functions of the dilaton modes and two "heavy" operators. The heavy states are dual to the single spin and dyonic magnon, the single spin and dyonic spike solutions or to two novel string solutions which do not have an undeformed counterpart. Our results provide the leading term of the correlators in the large $λ$ expansion and are in perfect agreement with the form of the correlator dictated by non-relativistic conformal invariance. We also specify the scaling function which can not be fixed by using conformal invariance.

description: This report presents an item-by-item tabulation, for the major components of Urban Analysis, of the uses and limitations of aerial photography. It describes the application of techniques for urban land study in the sequence of inventory, analysis and plan. Its development should provide a guide to city and county administrators and photogrammetric engineers alike in planning surveys based on aerial photography and should encourage the more extensive use of aerial survey methods in day-to-day administration. To determine the applicability of various methods for urban analysis, a small town was selected as a test area in which various problems could be readily isolated and studied over a period of several years. The area selected for testing was the city of Rockville, Md. a typical small town caught up in the rapid suburban expansion of a large metropolitan area.

Significant progresses, in these studies, have been allowed by the introduction of improved actions and non-perturbative renormalization techniques. Current determinations of light quark masses are accurate at the level of 20%, where the main source of uncertainty is represented by the quenching error. The determination of the bottom quark mass is accurate at the impressive level of 2%. As final averages of lattice results, I quote mud(2 GeV) = (4.5 +- 1.0) MeV, ms(2 GeV) = (110 +- 25) MeV and mb(mb) = (4.26 +- 0.09) GeV.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) is a revolutionary approach in terms of cost-effectiveness as well as minimization of environmental pollution by using perilousness-free bio-sources (different parts of plant, microorganism, plant-based waste). The different phytochemicals present in bio-sources play the role of potential reducing, stabilizing and capping agent during the synthesis of nanoparticles. An impetus in the rise of zinc oxide (ZnO) semiconductor has been perceived over the past decade as advanced nanomaterial to ameliorate the photocatalytic characteristics. Specifically, the use of ZnO is regarded as quite promising, not only because of the choice of green material but also owing to their alluring characteristics like high surface area to volume ratio, varying morphology etc. This review article represents several literature reports revealing the photocatalytic activities of green synthesized ZnO, prepared by using different green sources in degrading various organic pollutants which are present in wastewater. The method of derivation of phytochemicals during green synthesis approach of ZnO formation and the proposed mechanism of ZnO nanoparticles formation by interaction of those phytochemicals has been discussed thoroughly in this critical review. Numerous scientific investigations have been performed which elucidate on the controlling factors of ZnO (band gap, surface defects, surface morphology) and influence the photocatalytic activity. A summarization of such important reports has been synopsised in this article. The optimized parameters influencing the effective green synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles e.g. pH, temperature, metal precursor concentration and bio extract concentration have been concisely discussed with some published reports. Finally, a conclusion and future prospectus of the pioneering research arena are emphasized.

description: In this paper, the oral and dermal health risks of potentially toxic elements in water samples collected from Ojoto area in southeast Nigeria were studied using HHRISK code and water quality index. The water samples were analysed for physicochemical parameters based on standard guidelines. Average concentration of the potentially toxic elements in the water was in the order: Pb2+ > Fe2+ > Zn2+ > Ni2+ > Cr3+. To assess the level of surface and groundwater pollution, water quality index was calculated. Results of the water quality index suggest that 11% of the water samples are in good condition; 25% have poor quality, 3% have very poor quality, and 53% have quality that is unfit for human consumption. The HHRISK code was used to quantify the health risks associated with the use of the water resources. Results revealed that most of the water samples expose their users to carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risks. Cumulative non-carcinogenic risk scores (for both children and adults) and the majority of cumulative carcinogenic risk values were found to be above regulatory limits. The adult population is exposed to lower non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health risks, implying that children are more vulnerable. The water supplies are of substandard quality and could cause serious health issues when ingested than when used for bathing and washing purposes. Simple linear regression models showed positive agreement between the results of the WQI and HHRISK code. To safeguard the water resources, avoid additional water contamination, and reduce public health hazards associated with poor water quality, strategic mitigation strategies are recommended.

description: Large-N QCD is analysed in light-front coordinates with a transverse lattice at strong coupling. The general formalism can be looked up on as a d+n expansion with a stack of d-dimensional hyperplanes uniformly spaced in n transverse dimensions. It can arise by application of the renormalisation group transformations only in the transverse directions. At leading order in strong coupling, the gauge field dynamics reduces to the constraint that only colour singlet states can jump between the hyperplanes. With d=2, n=2 and large-N, the leading order strong coupling results are simple renormalisations of those for the 't Hooft model. The meson spectrum lies on a set of parallel trajectories labeled by spin. This is the first derivation of the widely anticipated Regge trajectories in a regulated systematic expansion in QCD.

description: Abstract

The global population and industrial development surge has triggered a significant influx of heavy metals into ecosystems, posing risks to environmental integrity and human health through food chain contamination. This comprehensive review examines various methodologies to mitigate heavy metal contamination in ecosystems. It meticulously delves into a spectrum of physical and chemical approaches, including mechanical and ultrasonic soil washing, ex situ electrokinetic removal, and the utilization of chelating materials and soil amendments. Furthermore, it scrutinizes biological interventions employing microorganisms, algae, and natural organic products alongside innovative techniques such as phytoextraction and phytoremediation. The latter encompasses multifaceted strategies like rhizofiltration, phytostabilization, phytodegradation, phytoextraction, and phytovolatilization, emphasizing environmentally sustainable solutions to heavy metal pollution. Additionally, the paper evaluates biotechnological methods leveraging genetically modified plants and nanotechnological approaches utilizing nanoparticles for metal remediation, highlighting their potential contributions to remediation endeavors. The review underscores the importance of integrating multiple techniques to foster synergistic approaches for more effective heavy metal removal. Each method is assessed based on its treatment efficacy, advantages, and drawbacks, drawing insights from pertinent studies in the field. This comprehensive analysis offers a nuanced understanding of cutting-edge techniques for heavy metal elimination from ecosystems, elucidating their potential contributions and challenges in environmental remediation efforts. It explores the burgeoning role of artificial intelligence in heavy metal remediation processes, aiming to illuminate advancements and challenges within this rapidly evolving field.

description: The present study elaborates the electrocoagulation process for the removal of nitrates from synthetic and real groundwater. Electrocoagulation treatment has a positive effect on the quality of groundwater in general and the removal of nitrate in particular, which is one of the most potent pollutants found in groundwater. Moreover, it is supposed that nitrate removal mechanisms are likely to be dependent on operational parameters like applied current, electrode material, initial concentration of nitrates, and pH of the solution, etc. Therefore, in the present study various process parameters have been optimised in terms of nitrate removal efficiency. Experiments were performed using batch process at different initial concentration of nitrates (100–500 mg/L), pH (6.0–12), stirring speed (100–500 rpm), inter-electrode distance (0.5–2 cm) and electrolysis time (30–180 min). Further, the effect of co-existing ions using KNO3, Ca(NO3)2 and Mg(NO3)2 in the presence of NaCl and Na2SO4 was investigated. Maximum 98%, Nitrate removal efficiency was obtained at inter-electrode distance 1 cm, agitation speed 300 rpm, electrolyte concentration of 1.1688 (g/L) NaCl, current 1.5 A and time 180 min for initial nitrate concentration of 100 (mg/L). Isotherm and kinetics models have been studied and it was observed from the present investigation that the process follows pseudo-second-order kinetics. The Freundlich isotherm model simulations match satisfactorily with the experimental observations. Further, optimised parameters were used to remove nitrates from real groundwater and 92.5% removal efficiency was attained.

description: This unpublished report describes an examination of artifacts assoicated with the "Ice Man."

Artefacts associated with the mummified remains of the  "Ice Man" now familiarly known as Otzi, were examined in November 1993 at the Romisch-Germanischen Zenrtalmuseum (Romano-German Central Museum, RGZM) in Maniz, Germany.  Optical microscopy and simple chemical screening were used to detect the presence of organic use-residues.  Approximately 70 hours of microscopic examination were carried out in Mainz in late November 1993 and 720 photomicrograph exposes were made. These photographs were recorded as 74 submect groups which comprise 56 samples (including 7 hair samples from the skin clothing and three samples of potential surface contaminants) were removed and taken to Australia for further analysis.  A screening test that detects hemoglobin was used to test residue extracts from locations selected during the microscopic examination.  The results of this analysis confirmed the presence of blood, hairs, collagen and starches on the tools and provided samples for further detailed analyses.  This report sets out the methods used, summarizes the results of microscopy and chemical screening.
AUGUSTAN GEOGRAPHY: ONTOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES
Creators: name: Turco, Angelo
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: The process of Augustan geography reflects the numerous changes introduced by the Princeps civitatis's reforms. It embeds the cultural, social, political, economic, technological and religious events of the age with varying degrees of speed and stability. At the same time, Augustan geography is a fundamental condition for the paths of transformation that would assail the late Roman world in every field. Imperial geography inaugurated new territorial profiles on the threefold plane of constitutive, configurative and ontological territoriality. This paper focuses specifically on the ontological content of Augustan geography, pivoting around the birth of Jesus Christ. The troubled but unstoppable advent of Christianity introduced new forms of spatial representation, which gradually permeated the Roman world and outlived it. On the one hand, these new representations influenced territorial acts in their material, symbolic and organizational aspects, and on the other, created the perceptions, feelings and emotional conduct that paved the way towards the medieval «appearance» of new configurations of territoriality in Europe and the Renaissance «invention» of landscape.

description: In this work, mesoporous spherical γ-AlOOH and γ-Al2O3 particles were rapidly prepared by spray pyrolysis (SP) at different temperatures (400°C–700°C) without the use of template materials. A sol-gel-derived colloidal solution of boehmite was ultrasonicated to generate fine droplets, which were continuously and rapidly transferred into a quartz reactor heated at a specific temperature by a constant flow of N2 gas. Under ultrasonication-assisted spray conditions, a phase change from boehmite to γ-alumina occurred at a temperature of 500°C, leading to a decrease in the surface area and surface hydroxyl group density of the products. At 400°C, the produced γ-AlOOH microspheres exhibited the highest surface area values of ca. ~ 510 m2/g and a surface hydroxyl group density of ca. ~ 2.92 mmol/g, surpassing those of commercial boehmite. The Cr (VI) removal experiments revealed that γ-AlOOH and γ-Al2O3 microspheres have good adsorption performance towards Cr6+. The optimal γ-AlOOH spheres exhibited the highest Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of ca.~ 44.5 mg/g (~74%) at 27 °C and pH = 5.5. After five adsorption-desorption cycles, the synthesised boehmite powder remained a Cr6+ adsorbing capacity of ~ 78%. Notably, the fabricated SP-γ-AlOOH was capable of simultaneously removing Cr6+ and textile dye from the solution. This study provides a facile, rapid, and scalable approach for producing boehmite powder with improved properties for Cr (VI) adsorption.

We perform the full basis calculation of the strength function with the same renormalized interaction as in [1] and show that the size of the basis, needed for converged calculations of the 6He continuum spectrum, is much larger than that for the discrete spectrum. The renormalized interaction of [1] therefore cannot be used for the continuum spectrum calculations with the same basis as for the ground state.

description: Standard purification systems have mainly demonstrated the inefficient removal of neonicotinoid insecticides with high persistence in the environment. In the present work, a new magnetic adsorbent composed of Fe3O4 and CuO nanoparticles impregnated with activated carbon (AC) has been used to remove imidacloprid (IMCP) as the most common neonicotinoid insecticide from the water solutions. Various techniques such as Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray diffraction, and vibrating sample magnetometer were employed to characterise the fabricated composite. The main affecting parameters, including adsorbent amount, solution pH, agitating time, initial pesticide concentration, and temperature, were examined to obtain the optimised conditions. According to the obtained results from kinetic and isotherm modelling, the adsorption mechanism of IMCP on Fe3O4/CuO@AC nanocomposite (NC) is a combination of chemisorption and physisorption phenomena. The presence of heterogeneous sites for IMCP adsorption was shown by fitting the experimental data to the Freundlich isotherm model. In addition, the adsorption process was well consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, which indicates that chemisorption is the determining step in the adsorption process. Thermodynamic data showed the exothermic and spontaneous nature of the adsorption process. Under optimal conditions (initial concentration of pesticide 10 mg L−1, pH = 7, and contact time of 10 min), 99.6% of IMCP was effectively removed, indicating the excellent ability of the adsorbent to adsorb this insecticide from aqueous solutions.

AUGUSTUS’S GEOGRAPHY: DURABILITY AND DISCONTINUITY IN THE REGIONALIZATION OF THE ITALIAN TERRITORY
Creators: name: Salvatori, Franco
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: While Augustus gets ready to give a recognizable imperial layout to the political space organized by the city, he wants to give centrality to Italy with an ideal call to the function and values of the Roman republic. The distribution of Italy into regions could meet this purpose, emphasizing, with the unitary, the details of its ethnic-cultural elements, according to a model still verifiable after two thousand years.

description: The computation of the Minimum Orbital Intersection Distance (MOID) is an old, but increasingly relevant problem. Fast and precise methods for MOID computation are needed to select potentially hazardous asteroids from a large catalogue. The same applies to debris with respect to spacecraft. An iterative method that strictly meets these two premises is presented.

THE AUGUSTAN PLANNING OF ITALY: REAL AND FICTITIOUS IDENTITIES
Creators: name: Poccetti, Paolo
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: The organisation of the Augustean Italy is a key-point of the construction of Roman Italy combining unitary factors with the multiplicity of its components. The partition into XI regions stressing the special role of the Peninsula with respect to the rest of the Empire matches the ideological bases outlined by the Res Gestae. Augustean depiction of Italy, however, was largely artificial, in that it results from a blending of historical origins and practical reasons, without any concrete administrative purpose. This is confirmed by the fact that the Augustean partition of Italy is not mentioned by literary authors, except Plinius, our main source, who seems to have adopted it as an easy pattern of geographical description rather than as a benchmark of a political or administrative project. Significantly Strabo’s description of Italy does not mention the Augustean partition, even referring to the historical and cultural roots of various regions. Nevertheless the Augustean partition of Italy had an considerable impact not only in the subsequent changes during the Roman Empire, but also in the whole history of the Italian Peninsula until modern times.

The Triaxial Rotation Vibration Model in the Xe-Ba Region
Creators: name: Meyer, U.
name: Faessler, Amand

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: The axial Rotation Vibration Model is here extended to describe also triaxial equilibrium shapes with beta and gamma vibrations allowing for the interaction between vibrations and rotations. This Triaxial Rotation Vibration Model (TRVM) is applied to Xe and Ba isotopes with mass numbers between 120 and 130. This area has recently been pointed out to be the O(6) limit of the Interacting Boson Approximation (IBA). The present work shows that the TRVM can equally well describe these nuclei concerning their excitation energies and E2 branching ratios.

description: The transcription factor Etv5 regulates the expression of a large number of genes, exerting diverse functions in the physiology and pathology of animal development. Etv5 gene global knockout (KO) mice show multiple defects, including smaller body size, male fertility, muscle atrophy, increased mortality, etc. To investigate the molecular mechanism by which Etv5 KO induces skeletal muscle atrophy, we performed RNAseq of gastrocnemius muscle in Etv5 homozygous and heterozygous KO mice with wild-type (WT) littermates as controls.
IMPERIUM INTRA TERMINOS AND ITALIA DISCRIPTA
Creators: name: De Romanis, Federico
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: Augustus’ skill in interpreting geographic space is apparent from the way he managed to shape his empire. Characterized by hegemonic pretentions of ecumenical proportions, but circumscribed within a realistic radius of government, the Augustan empire revolved around Italy, which was then extended up to the Alps and divided into eleven regiones. However, Augustan discriptio was not invented from scratch. It followed a pattern that was familiar to the Roman administration at least as early as the 3rd century BCE. Moreover, the numbering of the eleven regiones was based on a southup oriented mapping of the peninsula, which must have been widespread in the Roman culture, possibly long before Augustus.

THE AUGUSTAN DISCRIPTIO ITALIAE: AN ATTEMPT OF REGIONALISM?
Creators: name: Cursi, Maria Floriana
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: Among the interventions that Augustus realized in Italy during his Principate, the attention of the scholars has been mainly attracted by his division of Italy into eleven regions. The insufficient informations that we receive from Pliny (nat. hist. 3, 46) have led to quite distant interpretations. Some scholars think that the regions had a purely statistic role, based on census (Mommsen, Nicolet, Laffi); for others, they were districts for the administration of public lands and imperial properties (Marquardt, De Martino). In this paper it is argued that the Augustan regions were territorial districts whose role was to convey the local data to the central administration, probably including also lists of imperial lands; and it is questioned the possibility of a comparison between the Augustan invention and the administrative function of the modern regions.

Duality of (0,2) String Vacua
Creators: name: Distler, Jacques
name: Kachru, Shamit
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We discuss a duality of (0,2) heterotic string vacua which implies that certain pairs of (0,2) Calabi-Yau compactifications on topologically distinct target manifolds yield identical string theories. Some complex structure moduli in one model are interpreted in the dual model as deforming the holomorphic structure of the vacuum gauge bundle (and vice versa). A better understanding of singularity resolution for (0,2) models may reveal that this duality of compactifications on singular spaces is part of a larger story, involving smooth topology-changing processes which interpolate between the (0,2) models on the resolved spaces.

description: Based on the results of a Stage 1A study, Stage IB field investigations were conducted for the Stockbridge Research Facility, located in the Towns of Stockbridge and Lincoln and City of Oneida, in Madison County, New York. The Stage 1A study determined that the Stockbridge Facility contained low, moderate and high archaeological sensitivities. Following the Stage 1A recommendations, no field testing was conducted within the areas of low sensitivity; in areas of high sensitivity; shovel tests were excavated at 25-foot intervals (at the remains of one nineteenth century farmstead); and at 50-foot intervals elsewhere. In areas of moderate sensitivity, shovel testing was conducted at 100-foot by 50-foot intervals. In only one location was surface inspection of a newly plowed field possible. In certain locations, the actual extent of prior disturbance by RRS activities had been under-rated by the Stage 1A study, making those locations not testable. In addition to several very small widely spaced trash scatters, two cultural resources, both historic, were identified during the Stage IB study: 1) the Clement Farm, located along Burleson Road, and 2) the remains of a maple processing station, located in a hilly wooded “sugar bush” section in the northern portion of the Facility. The material recovered from the Clement Farm supports the range of dates expected from the preliminary historic research approximately 1830 to 1955. The maple processing location was probably not used beyond the late nineteenth century based on the kettle and stoneware remains recovered. Stage 2 site evaluation investigations are recommended for the Clement Farm and for the maple processing station. Stage 2 research might be able to supply information regarding early nineteenth century farming and associated activities in this part of New York State. No further archaeological investigations are recommended for the remainder o f the Facility. This recommendation does not, however, take into account the potential that the Facility might hold importance to traditional cultural local Native Americans, in particular the Oneida Indian Nation.
