description: This paper presents predictions of the consequences of tongue surgery on speech production. For this purpose, a 3D finite element model of the tongue is used that represents this articulator as a deformable structure in which tongue muscles anatomy is realistically described. Two examples of tongue surgery, which are common in the treatment of cancers of the oral cavity, are modelled, namely a hemiglossectomy and a large resection of the mouth floor. In both cases, three kinds of possible reconstruction are simulated, assuming flaps with different stiffness. Predictions are computed for the cardinal vowels /i, a, u/ in the absence of any compensatory strategy, i.e. with the same motor commands as the one associated with the production of these vowels in non-pathological conditions. The estimated vocal tract area functions and the corresponding formants are compared to the ones obtained under normal conditions

description: Σκοπός της εργασίας ήταν ο έλεγχος, στον αγρό, των 14 γενοτύπων, μαζί με δύο ευρέως καλλιεργούμενες ποικιλίες Μπασμά, με σκοπό να τεκμηριωθεί η ύπαρξη διαφορών ως προς την απόδοση, τα αγροκομικά και τα χημικά χαρακτηριστικά τους. Κατά τη διάρκεια της ανάπτυξης των φυτών πραγματοποιήθηκαν τρεις μετρήσεις για τα μορφολογικά χαρακτηριστικά ποσοστό άνθησης και ανάπτυξη φυλλιζίων, δύο μετρήσεις για το ύψος φυτών και τον αριθμό φύλλων/φυτό, τέσσερεις μετρήσεις για το νωπό βάρος φύλλων ανά «χέρι» συλλογής και το τελικό ξηρό βάρος φύλλων ανά «χέρι» συλλογής. Επίσης, έγινε ποιοτική αξιολόγηση του ξηρού προϊόντος και ανάλυσή του, ως προς τα χημικά χαρακτηριστικά της νικοτίνης και σακχάρων. Από τα αποτελέσματα του πειράματος αυτού προκύπτει ότι η πρακτική των παραγωγών να συλλέγουν σπόρο από την καλλιέργεια τους και να τον χρησιμοποιούν ως γενετικό υλικό στην επόμενη καλλιέργεια κατέληξε σε σπόρο που, σε σχέση με τις δύο πιστοποιημένες ποικιλίες, έδωσε ταυτόχρονα υψηλότερο ή ίσο ΔΠ και καλύτερα αποτελέσματα απόδοσης, άρα και μεγαλύτερη πρόσοδο στον παραγωγό, για έναν από τους εξεταζόμενους γενοτύπους, o οποίος παρουσιάζει αξιόλογα χαρακτηριστικά, που αξιοποιούμενα μέσω ενός προγράμματος βελτίωσης, μπορούν να οδηγήσουν στη δημιουργία ποικιλίας αποδεκτής τόσο από τους παραγωγούς όσο και από το εμπόριο.
description: The aim of the present thesis was the assessment in the field of 14 genotypes with two broadly cultivated Basma varieties, in order to be recorded any differences in the yield, agronomic and chemical characteristics. During the growing season, flowering percentage and sucker development were assessed three times, plant height and the number of leaves per plant were measured twice, and four measurements of leaf fresh weight per hand reaping and total leaf dry weight were conducted. Moreover, dry leaf product quality was assessed, namely nicotine and sugar contents and quality index (QI). The results of the experimentation revealed that the practice of growers to preserve their own seed, instead of using the commonly grown Basma cultivars, is rather disputable. Only one genotype outyielded cultivars and concurrently had higher or equivalent QI; thus it could potentially raise higher revenues to growers. This genotype presents appreciable characteristics that subjected in a breeding program, can lead to the selection of a cultivar acceptable by both growers and tobacco industry.

description: In this article, we take the point of view that the charmed scalar meson $D_{s0}(2317)$ is the conventional $c\bar{s}$ meson and calculate the strong coupling constant $g_{D_{s0} D K}$ within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical values for the large scalar-$DK$ coupling constant $g_{D_{s0} D K}$ support the hadronic dressing mechanism. Just like the scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$, the $D_{s0}(2317)$ may have small scalar $c\bar{s}$ kernel of the typical $c\bar{s}$ meson size. The strong coupling to the hadronic channels (or the virtual mesons loops) may result in smaller mass than the conventional scalar $c\bar{s}$ meson in the constituent quark models, and enrich the pure $c\bar{s}$ state with other components. The $D_{s0}(2317)$ may spend part (or most part) of its lifetime as virtual $ D K $ state.

description: We showed before that self-dual electromagnetism in noncommutative (NC) spacetime is equivalent to self-dual Einstein gravity. This result implies a striking picture about gravity: Gravity can emerge from electromagnetism in NC spacetime. Gravity is then a collective phenomenon emerging from gauge fields living in fuzzy spacetime. We elucidate in some detail why electromagnetism in NC spacetime should be a theory of gravity. In particular, we show that NC electromagnetism is realized through the Darboux theorem as a diffeomorphism symmetry G which is spontaneously broken to symplectomorphism H due to a background symplectic two-form $B_{μν}=(1/θ)_{μν}$, giving rise to NC spacetime. This leads to a natural speculation that the emergent gravity from NC electromagnetism corresponds to a nonlinear realization G/H of the diffeomorphism group, more generally its NC deformation. We also find some evidences that the emergent gravity contains the structure of generalized complex geometry and NC gravity. To illuminate the emergent gravity, we illustrate how self-dual NC electromagnetism nicely fits with the twistor space describing curved self-dual spacetime. We also discuss derivative corrections of Seiberg-Witten map which give rise to higher order gravity.

description: This study sought to analyze the relationship between in-season training workload with changes in aerobic power (VO2max), maximum and resting heart rate (HRmax and HRrest), linear sprint medium (LSM), and short test (LSS), in soccer players younger than 16 years (under-16 soccer players). We additionally aimed to explain changes in fitness levels during the in-season through regression models, considering accumulated load, baseline levels, and peak height velocity (PHV) as predictors. Twenty-three male sub-elite soccer players aged 15.5 ± 0.2 years (PHV: 13.6 ± 0.4 years; body height: 172.7 ± 4.2 cm; body mass: 61.3 ± 5.6 kg; body fat: 13.7% ± 3.9%; VO2max: 48.4 ± 2.6 mL⋅kg–1⋅min–1), were tested three times across the season (i.e., early-season (EaS), mid-season (MiS), and end-season (EnS) for VO2max, HRmax, LSM, and LSS. Aerobic and speed variables gradually improved over the season and had a strong association with PHV. Moreover, the HRmax demonstrated improvements from EaS to EnS; however, this was more evident in the intermediate period (from EaS to MiS) and had a strong association with VO2max. Regression analysis showed significant predictions for VO2max [F(2, 20) = 8.18, p ≤ 0.001] with an R2 of 0.45. In conclusion, the meaningful variation of youth players’ fitness levels can be observed across the season, and such changes can be partially explained by the load imposed.

Making a Wigner-Seitz approximation for the unit cell of the vortex lattice, we derive the Gross-Pitaevskii equation for the condensate wave function in each cell of the lattice, including effects of varying coarse grained density. We calculate the Abrikosov parameter, the fractional core area, and the energy of individual cells.

description: Axion-like particles (ALPs) are predicted by many extensions of the Standard Model (SM). When ALP mass lies in the range of MeV to GeV, the cosmology and astrophysics will be largely irrelevant. In this work, we investigate such light ALPs through the ALP-strahlung process $pp \to V a (\to γγ)$ at the 14 TeV LHC with an integrated luminosity of 3000 fb$^{-1}$ (HL-LHC). With the photon-jet algorithm, we demonstrate that our approach can probe the mass range of ALPs, which is inaccessible to previous LHC experiments. The obtained result can surpass the existing limits on ALP-photon coupling in the ALP mass range from 0.3 GeV to 10 GeV.

description: We analyze effects of the CP-odd soft phases in the MSSM on the pair-productions of colored superpartners in pp collisions at the LHC energies. We find that, among all pair-production processes, those of the scalar quarks in the first and second generations are particularly sensitive to the CP-odd phases, more precisely, to the phases of the gluinos and neutralinos. We compute pair-production cross sections, classify various production modes according to their dependencies on the gluino and neutralino phases, perform a detailed numerical analysis to determine individual as well as total cross sections, and give a detailed discussion of EDM bounds. We find that pair-productions of first and second generation squarks serve as a viable probe of the CP violation sources in the gaugino sector of the theory even if experiments cannot determine chirality, flavor and electric charge of the squarks produced.

description: When searching for new gravitational-wave or electromagnetic sources, the $n$ signal parameters (masses, sky location, frequencies,...) are unknown. In practice, one hunts for signals at a discrete set of points in parameter space, with a computational cost that is proportional to the number of these points. If that is fixed, the question arises, where should the points be placed in parameter space? The current literature advocates selecting the set of points (called a "template bank") whose Wigner-Seitz (also called Voronoï) cells have the smallest covering radius ($\equiv$ smallest maximal mismatch). Mathematically, such a template bank is said to have "minimum thickness". Here, for realistic populations of signal sources, we compute the fraction of potential detections which are "lost" because the template bank is discrete. We show that at fixed computational cost, the minimum thickness template bank does not maximize the expected number of detections. Instead, the most detections are obtained for a bank which minimizes a particular functional of the mismatch. For closely spaced templates, the fraction of lost detections is proportional to a scale-invariant "quantizer constant" G, which measures the average squared distance from the nearest template, i.e., the average expected mismatch. This provides a straightforward way to characterize and compare the effectiveness of different template banks. The template bank which minimizes G is mathematically called the "optimal quantizer", and maximizes the expected number of detections. We review optimal quantizer and minimum thickness template banks that are built as n-dimensional lattices, showing that even the best of these offer only a marginal advantage over template banks based on the humble cubic lattice.

description: We extend some of the fundamental results about percolation on unimodular nonamenable graphs to nonunimodular graphs. We show that they cannot have infinitely many infinite clusters at critical Bernoulli percolation. In the case of heavy clusters, this result has already been established, but it also follows from one of our results. We give a general necessary condition for nonunimodular graphs to have a phase with infinitely many heavy clusters. We present an invariant spanning tree with $p_c=1$ on some nonunimodular graph. Such trees cannot exist for nonamenable unimodular graphs. We show a new way of constructing nonunimodular graphs that have properties more peculiar than the ones previously known.

description: We report on a search for non-Newtonian forces that couple to mass, with a characteristic scale of ${\sim}10~μ$m, using an optically levitated microsphere as a precision force sensor. A silica microsphere trapped in an upward-propagating, single-beam, optical tweezer is utilized to probe for interactions sourced from a nanofabricated attractor mass with a density modulation brought into close proximity to the microsphere and driven along the axis of periodic density in order to excite an oscillating response. We obtain force sensitivity of ${\lesssim}10^{-16}~\rm{N}/\sqrt{\rm{Hz}}$. Separately searching for attractive and repulsive forces results in the constraint on a new Yukawa interaction of $|α| \gtrsim 10^8$ for $λ> 10~μ$m. This is the first test of the inverse-square law using an optically levitated test mass of dimensions comparable to $λ$, a complementary method subject to a different set of systematic effects compared to more established techniques.

Community or commodity?: a study of Lilong housing in Shanghai
Creators: name: Morris, Louise D.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Shanghai is currently undergoing a massive phase of redevelopment to its inner city. The major factors behind the spread and degree of this urban redevelopment is the concept of commodity value of land under the economic reform program, the commercialization of housing under the housing reform policy, and the physical condition of much of the inner city housing after decades of neglect. The result of such renewal is the demolition of vast amounts of lilong housing and the relocation of its dwellers to alternative housing in the periphery. However despite overcrowded conditions, and lack of services, the lilong neighbourhoods have maintained a high level of social stability, community cohesion, and economic viability for the dwellers. This research examines the factors which are affecting lilong dwellers in their access and quality of housing under the past delivery system based on public housing as a welfare privilege, and under the current climate of housing reform and ‘commercialization’. As the intention of the study is to determine those factors which both alleviate and contribute to housing problems, it is of primary concern to understand the relationship between the dwellers, their housing, and the inherent factors specific to the old neighbourhoods. To describe these pressures a holistic approach is required. The thesis links field research with recent Chinese and English publications on China. Basic data sources include in-depth interviews with a diverse group of stake holders which includes lilong dwellers, housing administrators, planners, policy makers and community workers; participant observations in the thong communities; and, primary and secondary documents which include policy statements, statistical publications, project proposals, and journal and newspaper articles. The study suggests that lilong dwellers will experience increased hardship in their ability to remain in the old neighbourhoods. Furthermore, as a result of the shift from a centralized welfare housing delivery system to a market-oriented system, dwellers may experience greater disparities in housing access and allocation due to their specific living circumstances. To address the local needs of dwellers, policies must be modified which consider both the community and the commodity value of inner city housing and neighbourhoods.

Data-driven criterion for the solid-liquid transition of two-dimensional self-propelled colloidal particles far from equilibrium

description: We establish an explicit data-driven criterion for identifying the solid-liquid transition of two-dimensional self-propelled colloidal particles in the far from equilibrium parameter regime, where the transition points predicted by different conventional empirical criteria for melting and freezing diverge. This is achieved by applying a hybrid machine learning approach that combines unsupervised learning with supervised learning to analyze over one million of the system's configurations in the nonequilibrium parameter regime. Furthermore, we establish a generic data-driven evaluation function, according to which the performance of different empirical criteria can be systematically evaluated and improved. In particular, by applying this evaluation function, we identify a new nonequilibrium threshold value for the long-time diffusion coefficient, based on which the predictions of the corresponding empirical criterion are greatly improved in the far from equilibrium parameter regime. These data-driven approaches provide a generic tool for investigating phase transitions in complex systems where conventional empirical ones face difficulties.

Glimm-Godunov's Method for Cosmic-ray-hydrodynamics

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A numerical method for integrating the equations describing a dynamically coupled system made of a fluid and cosmic-rays is developed. In smooth flows the effect of CR pressure is accounted for by modification of the characteristic equations and the energy exchange between cosmic-rays and the fluid, due to diffusive processes in configuration and momentum space, is modeled with a flux conserving method. Provided the shock acceleration efficiency as a function of the upstream conditions and shock Mach number, we show that the Riemann solver can be modified to take into account the cosmic-ray mediation without having to resolve the cosmic-ray induced substructure. Shocks are advanced with Glimm's method which preserves their discontinuous character without any smearing, thus allowing to maintain self-consistency in the shock solutions. In smooth flows either Glimm's or a higher order Godunov's method can be applied, with the latter producing better results when approximations are introduced in the Riemann solver.

description: In this work, open linked data associated with sports are created and published, along with a knowledge network that uses these data to present the containing information. These data are statistics from basketball games, namely from Euroleague, which were retrieved from the Web and converted into RDF, using an ontology that was created for this purpose. Then, the data of RDF graphs stored in an appropriate form in json files, which are used by the final form of the application, Euroleague Timeline, to display information on all games of a team in the competition or of a whole season of it. This large amount of raw data published as linked data will benefit the scientific community conducting research related to sports and basketball, based on statistical data. At the same time, creating an attractive environment for use of these data through Euroleague Timeline, which is addressed to all the fans of basketball, can trigger the creation of similar applications that will be based on linked data, thus contribute indirectly to the publication of more sports data in this format.

This exact sequence corresponds to inverting the relation in the representation ring of GL(V) that is described by the Koszul complex, and has appeared before in work by B. Totaro, analogously to a construction of K. Akin involving the normalized bar resolution. Our approach yields a concrete description of the differentials, and provides an alternate direct proof that Ext^t_{\wedge (V^*)}(k,k) = S^t V.

description: Σκοπός της εργασίας είναι η ελαχιστοποίηση του κόστους σε ένα πρόβλημα απόφασης μιας Hμιμαρκοβιανής διαδικασίας σε διακριτό χρόνο. Η θεωρία εφαρμόζεται σε πρόβλημα που αφορά στο βέλτιστο έλεγχο διαδικασίας που περιγράφει την εξέλιξη ασθενών που βρίσκονται σε φαρμακευτική ή άλλη αγωγή και έχουν υποστεί εγκεφαλικό ή πάσχουν από κολπική μαρμαρυγή. Ο κύριος στόχος είναι η εύρεση της πολιτικής η οποία, για κάθε αρχική κατάσταση της διαδικασίας, ελαχιστοποιεί τη μέση τιμή μιας προκαθορισμένης συνάρτησης αμοιβών. Η διαδικασία απόφασης γίνεται με δύο τρόπους. Στην πρώτη μέθοδο (value iteration) η βέλτιστη πολιτική διαφοροποιείται στον χρόνο. Στην δεύτερη μέθοδο (policy iteration) ο στόχος είναι η εύρεση μιας σταθερής πολιτικής σε βάθος χρόνου. Οι παραπάνω μέθοδοι βασίζονται στη θεωρία των αμοιβών (Howard, 1971).Η προσομοίωση της αριθμητικής εφαρμογής έγινε με χρήση του πακέτου Mathematica 7.
description: The purpose of this paper is to minimize the cost to a decision problem of a Semi Markov process in discrete time. The theory is applied to a problem related to the optimal control of a process which describes the evolution of patients undergoing medical or other treatment and who have suffered a stroke or suffer from atrial fabrillation. The main object is to find the policy that, for any initial state of the process, minimizes the average value of a predetermined reward function. The decision process is done in two methods. In the first method (value iteration) the optimal policy varies in time. in the second method (policy iteration) the goal is to find a stable policy in long term. The above methods are based on the theory of rewards (Howard, 1971). The application of the numerical simulation was performed using the package Mathematica 7

description: We review the recent developments and the current status in the field of quantum-gas cavity QED. Since the first experimental demonstration of atomic self-ordering in a system composed of a Bose-Einstein condensate coupled to a quantized electromagnetic mode of a high-$Q$ optical cavity, the field has rapidly evolved over the past decade. The composite quantum-gas--cavity systems offer the opportunity to implement, simulate, and experimentally test fundamental solid-state Hamiltonians, as well as to realize non-equilibrium many-body phenomena beyond conventional condensed-matter scenarios. This hinges on the unique possibility to design and control in open quantum environments photon-induced tunable-range interaction potentials for the atoms using tailored pump lasers and dynamic cavity fields. Notable examples range from Hubbard-like models with long-range interactions exhibiting a lattice-supersolid phase, over emergent magnetic orderings and quasicrystalline symmetries, to the appearance of dynamic gauge potentials and non-equilibrium topological phases. Experiments have managed to load spin-polarized as well as spinful quantum gases into various cavity geometries and engineer versatile tunable-range atomic interactions. This led to the experimental observation of spontaneous discrete and continuous symmetry breaking with the appearance of soft-modes as well as supersolidity, density and spin self-ordering, dynamic spin-orbit coupling, and non-equilibrium dynamical self-ordered phases among others. In addition, quantum-gas--cavity setups offer new platforms for quantum-enhanced measurements. In this review, starting from an introduction to basic models, we pedagogically summarize a broad range of theoretical developments and put them in perspective with the current and near future state-of-art experiments.

description: Weather nowcasting consists of predicting meteorological components in the short term at high spatial resolutions. Due to its influence in many human activities, accurate nowcasting has recently gained plenty of attention. In this paper, we treat the nowcasting problem as an image-to-image translation problem using satellite imagery. We introduce Broad-UNet, a novel architecture based on the core UNet model, to efficiently address this problem. In particular, the proposed Broad-UNet is equipped with asymmetric parallel convolutions as well as Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP) module. In this way, The the Broad-UNet model learns more complex patterns by combining multi-scale features while using fewer parameters than the core UNet model. The proposed model is applied on two different nowcasting tasks, i.e. precipitation maps and cloud cover nowcasting. The obtained numerical results show that the introduced Broad-UNet model performs more accurate predictions compared to the other examined architectures.

description: Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία γίνεται μελέτη των συστημάτων αλγεβρικών εξισώσεων διαφορών που βρίσκονται στη μορφή AR-representation, δηλαδή στη μορφή A(σ)β(k)=0, όπου A(σ) πολυωνυμικός πίνακας και σβ(k)=β(k+1). Η εργασία είναι χωρισμένη σε δύο μέρη. Στο πρώτο μέρος μελετάμε τις λύσεις των συστημάτων αλγεβρικών εξισώσεων διαφορών, οι οποίες χωρίζονται σε δύο μεγάλες κατηγορίες, που συνδέονται με τους πεπερασμένους και τους άπειρους στοιχειώδεις διαιρέτες του συστήματος αντίστοιχα. Στο δεύτερο μέρος μελετάμε το αντίστροφο πρόβλημα. Έχοντας δεδομένη τη συμπεριφορά ενός συστήματος, να κατασκευάσουμε τον πίνακα Α(σ) ώστε να ικανοποιεί τη δοσμένη συμπεριφορά. Δίνουμε ένα θεώρημα που συνδέει την προς τα πίσω συμπεριφορά ενός συστήματος με την προς τα εμπρός συμπεριφορά του δυικού του. Δίνουμε επιπλέον δύο μεθόδους κατασκευής ενός συστήματος με δεδομένη προς τα εμπρός και προς τα πίσω συμπεριφορά.
description: In the present Thesis we study the forward and backward-impulsive behavior of systems of algebraic difference equations in the form of AR-representations, that is A(σ)β(k)=0, where A(σ) is a polynomial matrix and σβ(k)=β(k+1). This paper consists of two parts. In the first part we study the forward and backward solutions of AR-representations, which are depended upon the finite and infinite elementary divisors of the matrix Α(σ). In the second part we study the inverse problem. That is, given a given behavior, how to construct a system that satisfies it. First, we give a theorem connecting the backward behavior of a system to the forward behavior of its dual system. We also present two methods of constructing a system with a given forward and backward behavior.
Plausible Explanation Attempts against the Supraluminal Propagation of Light

description: The supposed supraluminal velocities of light are caused above all by interaction of matter with electromagnetic radiation from the sender and/or the own environment. Anti-Stokes frequencies which result in the consequence that the refractive index becomes less than 1 or negative during strong optical laser stimulation even are emitted in a increased manner under suitable conditions. The light propagation is retarded simultaneously by interaction within the matter. The velocity of light remains a limiting speed which can not be exceeded. The refractive index is defined in a new manner and a simple collision theory presented for impacts between photon and corpuscle. ----- Die vermeintlichen Ueberlichtgeschwindigkeiten werden vor allem durch Wechselwirkung der Materie mit der elektromagnetischen Strahlung aus dem Sender bzw. aus der eigenen Umgebung verursacht. Es werden unter geeigneten Bedingungen vermehrt anti-Stokessche Frequenzen emittiert, die zur Folge haben, dass die Brechzahl kleiner als 1 oder bei starker Laseranregung sogar negativ wird. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Wechselwirkung innerhalb der Materie die Lichtausbreitung gebremst. Die Lichtgeschwindigkeit bleibt eine Grenzgeschwindigkeit, die nicht ueberschritten werden kann. Die Brechzahl wird neu definiert und eine einfache Stosstheorie fuer Stoesse zwischen Photon und Teilchen vorgestellt.

description: We explore a dynamic signature of quantum phase transition (QPT) in an isotropic Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model by studying the time evolution of a central qubit coupled to it. We evaluate exactly the time-dependent purity, which can be used to measure quantum coherence, of the central qubit. It is found that distinctly different behaviors of the purity as a function of the parameter reveal clearly the QPT point in the system. It is also clarified that the present model is equivalent to an anti Jaynes-Cummings model under certain conditions.

[Mu]⁺SR measurement of the temperature dependence of the magnetic penetration depth in YBa₂Cu₃O₆ 95 single crystals
Creators: name: Sonier, Jeffrey E.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis presents the results of transverse-field muon spin rotation (TF-/Li+SR) measurements of the magnetic penetration depth in the a6-plane (i.e. Aa&), for the vortex state of high quality single crystals of YBaaCusOg.gs. In particular, the low-temperature dependence of Aa(, was determined in an effort to clarify the nature of the pairing mechanism in the YBa2Cu306.95 compound. These results should be more reliable than previous jU+SR studies on powders and crystal mosaics, due to the employment of a novel low-background apparatus, as well as to improvements in sample quality and in the fitting procedure. A strong linear temperature dependence for 1/A^, was found to exist below 50K for applied magnetic fields of 0.5T and 1.5T. This linear temperature dependence contradicts the consensus of previous / i+SR studies which suggested a behaviour consistent with conventional s-wave pairing of carriers in the superconducting state. The presence of a linear term in the data reported here, supports recent microwave cavity measurements in zero field and indicates the existence of a more unconventional pairing state. In addition, a possible field dependence for Aa& at low temperatures was indicated by the data, with Xab(T = 0) having a range of 1347-145lA and 1437-1496A for the 0.5T and 1.5T data, respectively. The range of these values was determined by fitting the data several different ways. For each type of analysis, Aof,(0) was found to be greater and the linear term was stronger in the 0.5T data. Furthermore, the 1.5T data appear to agree better with the microwave cavity measurements. Included in this thesis is a qualitative description of the conventional s-wave pairing state and a proposed <i-wave pairing state, called dx2_y2. The findings in this ^+SR study support the latter, but does not rule out the possibility of other anisotropic pairing states or isotropic pairing theories in which critical fluctuations persist down to very low temperatures.

description: This paper describes a general-purpose extension of max-value entropy search, a popular approach for Bayesian Optimisation (BO). A novel approximation is proposed for the information gain -- an information-theoretic quantity central to solving a range of BO problems, including noisy, multi-fidelity and batch optimisations across both continuous and highly-structured discrete spaces. Previously, these problems have been tackled separately within information-theoretic BO, each requiring a different sophisticated approximation scheme, except for batch BO, for which no computationally-lightweight information-theoretic approach has previously been proposed. GIBBON (General-purpose Information-Based Bayesian OptimisatioN) provides a single principled framework suitable for all the above, out-performing existing approaches whilst incurring substantially lower computational overheads. In addition, GIBBON does not require the problem's search space to be Euclidean and so is the first high-performance yet computationally light-weight acquisition function that supports batch BO over general highly structured input spaces like molecular search and gene design. Moreover, our principled derivation of GIBBON yields a natural interpretation of a popular batch BO heuristic based on determinantal point processes. Finally, we analyse GIBBON across a suite of synthetic benchmark tasks, a molecular search loop, and as part of a challenging batch multi-fidelity framework for problems with controllable experimental noise.
