description: Although several thousands of exoplanets have now been detected and characterized, observational biases have led to a paucity of long-period, low-mass exoplanets with measured masses and a corresponding lag in our understanding of such planets. In this paper we report the mass estimation and characterization of the long-period exoplanet Kepler-538b. This planet orbits a Sun-like star (V = 11.27) with M_* = 0.892 +/- (0.051, 0.035) M_sun and R_* = 0.8717 +/- (0.0064, 0.0061) R_sun. Kepler-538b is a 2.215 +/- (0.040, 0.034) R_earth sub-Neptune with a period of P = 81.73778 +/- 0.00013 d. It is the only known planet in the system. We collected radial velocity (RV) observations with HIRES on Keck I and HARPS-N on the TNG. We characterized stellar activity by a Gaussian process with a quasi-periodic kernel applied to our RV and cross correlation function full width at half maximum (FWHM) observations. By simultaneously modeling Kepler photometry, RV, and FWHM observations, we found a semi-amplitude of K = 1.68 +/- (0.39, 0.38) m s^-1 and a planet mass of M_p = 10.6 +/- (2.5, 2.4) M_earth. Kepler-538b is the smallest planet beyond P = 50 d with an RV mass measurement. The planet likely consists of a significant fraction of ices (dominated by water ice), in addition to rocks/metals, and a small amount of gas. Sophisticated modeling techniques such as those used in this paper, combined with future spectrographs with ultra high-precision and stability will be vital for yielding more mass measurements in this poorly understood exoplanet regime. This in turn will improve our understanding of the relationship between planet composition and insolation flux and how the rocky to gaseous transition depends on planetary equilibrium temperature.

description: Intermittent stochastic processes appear in a wide field, such as chemistry, biology, ecology, and computer science. This paper builds up the theory of intermittent continuous time random walk (CTRW) and Lévy walk, in which the particles are stochastically reset to a given position with a resetting rate $r$. The mean squared displacements of the CTRW and Lévy walks with stochastic resetting are calculated, uncovering that the stochastic resetting always makes the CTRW process localized and Lévy walk diffuse slower. The asymptotic behaviors of the probability density function of Lévy walk with stochastic resetting are carefully analyzed under different scales of $x$, and a striking influence of stochastic resetting is observed.

description: We introduce a method for calculating the divided differences of the exponential function by means of addition and removal of items from the input list to the function. Our technique exploits a new identity related to divided differences recently derived by F. Zivcovich [Dolomites Research Notes on Approximation 12, 28-42 (2019)]. We show that upon adding an item to or removing an item from the input list of an already evaluated exponential, the re-evaluation of the divided differences can be done with only $O(s n)$ floating point operations and $O(s n)$ bytes of memory, where $[z_0,\dots,z_n]$ are the inputs and $s \propto \max_{i,j} |z_i - z_j|$. We demonstrate our algorithm's ability to deal with input lists that are orders-of-magnitude longer than the maximal capacities of the current state-of-the-art. We discuss in detail one practical application of our method: the efficient calculation of weights in the off-diagonal series expansion quantum Monte Carlo algorithm.

description: The interplay between superconductivity, spin-orbit coupling, and Zeeman or exchange field, is studied theoretically in two different setups: a single wire in which all these fields coexist, and a double wire system in which superconducting pairing and the spin-dependent fields are spatially separated. We first explore a magnetoelectric effect, namely the appearance of anomalous charge supercurrents. We determine the conditions under which such currents are allowed by symmetry and express them in terms of the SU(2) electric and magnetic fields. In leading order in the strength of the fields we find that in the single wire setup such currents may appear only when the Zeeman field has both, a longitudinal and transverse component with respect to the spin-orbit field. In contrast, in the two wire setup a parallel component to the SOC can generate the anomalous current, which is allowed by symmetry. We confirm these findings by calculating explicitly the current in both setups together with the self-consistent superconducting order parameter. The latter shows in the ground-state a spatial modulation of the phase that leads to currents that compensate the anomalous current, such that in both cases the ground state corresponds to a total zero-current state. However, in the two wire setup this zero-current state consists of two finite currents flowing in each of the wires in opposite direction.

description: Based on the recently introduced averaging procedure in phase space, a new type of entropy is defined on the von Neumann lattice. This quantity can be interpreted as a measure of uncertainty associated with simultaneous measurement of the position and momentum observables in the discrete subset of the phase space. Evaluating for a class of the coherent states, it is shown that this entropy takes a stationary value for the ground state, modulo a unit cell of the lattice in such a class. This value for the ground state depends on the ratio of the position lattice spacing and the momentum lattice spacing. It is found that its minimum is realized for the perfect square lattice, i.e., absence of squeezing. Numerical evaluation of this minimum gives 1.386....

description: The semiclassical gravity describes gravitational back-reactions of the classical spacetime interacting with quantum matter fields but the quantum effects on the background is formally defined as higher derivative curvatures. These induce catastrophic instabilities and classic solutions become unstable under small perturbations or their evolutions. In this paper we discuss validity of the semiclassical gravity from the perspective of the spacetime instabilities and consider cosmological dynamics of the Universe in this theory. We clearly show that the homogenous and isotropic flat Universe is unstable and the solutions either grow exponentially or oscillate even in Planckian time $t_{\rm I}=(α_{ 1 }G_N)^{1/2}\approx α_{ 1 }10^{-43}\ {\rm sec}$. The subsequent curvature evolution leads to Planck-scale spacetime curvature in a short time and causes a catastrophe of the Universe unless one takes extremely large values of the gravitational couplings. Furthermore, we confirm the above suggestion by comparing the semiclassical solutions and $Λ$CDM with the Planck data and it is found that the semiclassical solutions are not consistent with the cosmological observations. Thus, the standard semiclassical gravity using quantum energy momentum tensor $\left< { T }_{ μν} \right>$ is not appropriate to describe our Universe.

description: The study explored the effectiveness or otherwise of the in-built activities in the course manuals given to DE students of the University of Education in supporting their learning. Adopting the sequential mixed method design, 156 respondents were purposively selected from two study centres of the University. Data were collected using questionnaire and interview guides. Percentages and the thematic approach formed the analytical frame. It came out strongly from the study that almost all students attempted answering the in-text activities in the course modules supplied to them. Issues like inability to manage their time, laziness, and absence of video footage on some of the activities prevented them from getting involved completely in the activities. Further, pressure from schoolwork, as most of them were teachers, and difficulty in understanding some concepts were some of their challenges. The activities, on the other hand, supported DE students to learn effectively, even though some of the activities were very challenging. It was concluded that a number of factors combine to influence how an individual is likely to respond to an activity. These include time constraints, level of difficulty of concepts, nature of the activity and the mode of delivery. It is therefore recommended, among others that the modules need reviewing to include activities that seek the opinion of learners, with most of the concepts well explained.

description: The modern theory of electric polarization has recently been extended to higher multipole moments, such as quadrupole and octupole moments. The higher electric multipole insulators are essentially topological crystalline phases protected by underlying crystalline symmetries. Henceforth, it is natural to ask what are the consequences of symmetry breaking in these higher multipole insulators. In this work, we investigate topological phases and the consequences of symmetry breaking in generalized electric quadrupole insulators. Explicitly, we generalize the Benalcazar-Bernevig-Hughes model by adding specific terms in order to break the crystalline and non-spatial symmetries. Our results show that chiral symmetry breaking induces an indirect gap phase which hides corner modes in bulk bands, ruining the topological quadrupole phase. We also demonstrate that quadrupole moments can remain quantized even when mirror symmetries are absent in a generalized model. Furthermore, it is shown that topological quadrupole phase is robust against a unique type of disorder presented in the system.

description: Two-dimensional (2D) generalization of the Su-Schriffer-Heeger (SSH) model serves as a platform for exploring higher-order topological insulators (HOTI). We investigate this model in a magnetic field which interpolates two models studied so far with zero flux and $π$ flux per plaquette. We show that in the Hofstadter butterfly there appears a wide gap around the $π$ flux, which belongs to the same HOTI discovered by Benalcazar-Bernevig-Hughes (BBH). It turns out that in a weak field regime HOTI could exist even within a small gap disconnected from the wider gap around $π$ flux. To characterize HOTI, we employ the entanglement polarization (eP) technique which is useful even if the basic four bands split into many Landau levels under a magnetic field.

description: We investigate the potential of LHC resonance searches in leptonic final states to probe the $Z'$ in the minimal $U(1)_{B-L}$ model. Considering the current constraints on the $Z'$ in terms of its mass $m_{Z'}$ and the associated gauge coupling $g_{B-L}$ as well as constraints in the Higgs sector, we analyse the potential of dilepton and four lepton final states for $Z'$ production. This includes Drell-Yan production, Higgs mediated decays and final state radiation processes concentrating only on the ATLAS and CMS detectors at the LHC. We show that the four-lepton final state is sensitive to $m_{Z'}$ as low as 0.25 GeV. Furthermore, setting the Higgs mixing to $\sinα= 0.3$, this final state has a strong sensitivity and it probes regions of parameter space where the $Z'$ is long-lived. We demonstrate the sensitivity at the High Luminosity LHC and comment on the potential of probing displaced vertices due to long-lived $Z'$. Finally, we also comment on the strength of $Z'$ and Higgs mediated heavy neutrino processes by taking into account the constraints derived.

description: Regularization by denoising (RED) is an image reconstruction framework that uses an image denoiser as a prior. Recent work has shown the state-of-the-art performance of RED with learned denoisers corresponding to pre-trained convolutional neural nets (CNNs). In this work, we propose to broaden the current denoiser-centric view of RED by considering priors corresponding to networks trained for more general artifact-removal. The key benefit of the proposed family of algorithms, called regularization by artifact-removal (RARE), is that it can leverage priors learned on datasets containing only undersampled measurements. This makes RARE applicable to problems where it is practically impossible to have fully-sampled groundtruth data for training. We validate RARE on both simulated and experimentally collected data by reconstructing a free-breathing whole-body 3D MRIs into ten respiratory phases from heavily undersampled k-space measurements. Our results corroborate the potential of learning regularizers for iterative inversion directly on undersampled and noisy measurements.

description: American relations with China is one of the most important bilateral relations in the world today. It will continue to do so in the foreseeable future, which will, ultimately, affect the peace and prosperity of the globe. Rising China, with its authoritarian ambition to become the main global player, is considered a fundamental challenge to liberal world order and American leadership in the twenty-first century. This paper, using qualitative analysis, firstly explores the change of global balance of power and its developments after the end of the Cold War. Secondly, it investigates American foreign policy towards China and its implications for Chinese foreign policymaking. At the same time, it covers the economic development of both countries as well as their different approach towards global issues. Lastly, current trends of world economic-political systems, the emergence of liberal and authoritarian blocks which are representing two global superpowers, and its significance to future international relations, stability, and opulence of the world are scrutinized.

description: We point out a serendipitous link between warm dark matter (WDM) models for structure formation on the one hand and the high sensitivity energy range (1-10 keV) for x-ray photon detection on the Chandra and XMM-Newton observatories on the other. This fortuitous match may provide either a direct detection of the dark matter or exclusion of many candidates. We estimate expected x-ray fluxes from field galaxies and clusters of galaxies if the dark matter halos of these objects are composed of WDM candidate particles with rest masses in the structure formation-preferred range (~1 keV to ~20 keV) and with small radiative decay branches. Existing observations lead us to conclude that for singlet neutrinos (possessing a very small mixing with active neutrinos) to be a viable WDM candidate they must have rest masses < 5 keV in the zero lepton number production mode. Future deeper observations may detect or exclude the entire parameter range for the zero lepton number case, perhaps restricting the viability of singlet neutrino WDM models to those where singlet production is driven by a significant lepton number. The Constellation X project has the capability to detect/exclude singlet neutrino WDM for lepton number values up to 10% of the photon number. We also consider diffuse x-ray background constraints on these scenarios. These same x-ray observations additionally may constrain parameters of active neutrino and gravitino WDM candidates.

description: We describe the design and current performance of the high-flux backscattering spectrometer located at the NIST Center for Neutron Research. The design incorporates several state-of-the-art neutron optical devices to achieve the highest flux on sample possible while maintaining an energy resolution of less than 1mueV. Foremost among these is a novel phase-space transformation chopper that significantly reduces the mismatch between the beam divergences of the primary and secondary parts of the instrument. This resolves a long-standing problem of backscattering spectrometers, and produces a relative gain in neutron flux of 4.2. A high-speed Doppler-driven monochromator system has been built that is capable of achieving energy transfers of up to +-50mueV, thereby extending the dynamic range of this type of spectrometer by more than a factor of two over that of other reactor-based backscattering instruments.
On quantum deformation of conformal symmetry: Gauge dependence via field redefinitions

description: The effective action in gauge theories is known to depend on a choice of gauge fixing conditions. This dependence is such that any change of gauge conditions is equivalent to a field redefinition in the effective action. In this sense, the quantum deformation of conformal symmetry in the N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory, which was computed in 't Hooft gauge in hep-th/9808039 and hep-th/0203236, is gauge dependent. The deformation is an intrinsic property of the theory in that it cannot be eliminated by a local choice of gauge (although we sketch a field redefinition induced by a nonlocal gauge which, on the Coulomb branch of the theory, converts the one-loop quantum-corrected conformal transformations to the classical ones). We explicitly compute the deformed conformal symmetry in R_ξgauge. The conformal transformation law of the gauge field turns out to be ξ-independent. We construct the scalar field redefinition which relates the 't Hooft and R_ξgauge results. A unique feature of 't Hooft gauge is that it makes it possible to consistently truncate the one-loop conformal deformation to the terms of first order in derivatives of the fields such that the corresponding transformations form a field realization of the conformal algebra.

As most of illustration about this phenomenon relates to the definition human provides for himself, and this issue sometimes helps thinkers and poets to describe the position of human in highest level which the other phenomenon and creatures can’t reach, this specialty is because of the intellect and wisdom that human have, by this human can get the ability of solve the problems of his way, and achieve the highest point. The discoveries and invents of the extraordinary persons in contemporary world are the proof of this claim, Bedil has introduced human being as improvable, responsible and controllable over wishes, according to him human has the best attribution and different from other creatures, with such specialty human can omit the difficulty of his way and reach to the position that the other creatures cannot receive it. In this article, there is used the descriptive and analytical methods and library type research with reference to the sources.

description: Thermodynamic observables of mesoscopic systems can be expressed as integrated empirical currents. Their fluctuations are bound by thermodynamic uncertainty relations. We introduce the hyperaccurate current as the integrated empirical current with the least fluctuations in a given non-equilibrium system. For steady-state systems described by overdamped Langevin equations, we derive an equation for the hyperaccurate current by means of a variational principle. We show that the hyperaccurate current coincides with the entropy production if and only if the latter saturates the thermodynamic uncertainty relation, and it can be substantially more precise otherwise. The hyperaccurate current can be used to improve estimates of entropy production from experimental data.

description: We study the Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action with one linear and one non-linear supersymmetry in the presence of a constant Fayet-Iliopoulos (FI) D-term added explicitly or through a deformation of supersymmetry transformations. The linear supersymmetry appears to be spontaneously broken since the D auxiliary field gets a non-vanishing vacuum expectation value and an extra term proportional to the FI parameter involving fermions emerges in the non-linear formulation of the action written recently. However in this note, we show that on-shell this action is equivalent to a standard supersymmetric DBI action ${\it without}$ FI term but with redefined tension, at least up to order of mass-dimension 12 effective interactions.

INTEGRATED MODEL

description: The Giant Magellan Telescope Project relies on a comprehensive integrated modeling tool to evaluate Observatory
Performance Modes, ranging from Seeing Limited to Adaptive Optics. This STOP (Structural-Thermal-Optical
Performance) model includes the dynamics of each domain-specific model, accounting for time-varying disturbances
such as wind jitter, vibrations, and temperature fluctuations. However, creating such a model presents challenges
due to the wide range of scientific and engineering expertise required, as well as the large number of degrees
of freedom to handle. Adaptive Optics presents additional challenges due to its high sampling rate of 1kHz
or more, exacerbated by the need to simulate long science exposures under various operating conditions. This
paper will introduce the main components of the integrated model, including finite element, optical, control,
and computational fluid dynamics, as well as the stringent verification and experimental validation processes
that the model undergoes. The choice of computing framework that integrates domain-specific models into a
unified model is critical and will be described in detail. The development of the integrated model is driven by the
need to accurately estimate errors that affect the science instrument data products and mitigate technological
risks associated with the telescope. Examples will be given on how the error budgets and risk register are used
to set priorities for the integrated modeling simulations queue. The GMTO project has identified a set of Key
Performance Parameters (KPP) that summarize the expected performance for each Observatory Performance
Mode. These KPPs are statistical quantities derived from Monte-Carlo simulations of the Observatory under
various operating and environmental conditions. This paper will show how Monte-Carlo simulations have been
performed at the Observatory level for the Natural Guide Star Adaptive Optics OPM.

description: We present the scientific motivation for future space tests of the equivalence principle, and in particular the universality of free fall, at the $10^{-17}$ level or better. Two possible mission scenarios, one based on quantum technologies, the other on electrostatic accelerometers, that could reach that goal are briefly discussed.

description: Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) is very sensitive to the cosmological expansion rate. If the gravitational constant $G$ took a different value during the nucleosynthesis epoch than today, the primordial abundances of light elements would be affected. In this work, we improve the bounds on this variation using recent determinations of the primordial element abundances, updated nuclear and weak reaction rates and observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). When combining the measured abundances and the baryon density from CMB observations by Planck, we find $G_\mathrm{BBN}/G_0 = 0.99^{+0.06}_{-0.05}$ at $2σ$ confidence level. If the variation of $G$ is linear in time, we find $\dot{G}/G_0 = 0.7^{+3.8}_{-4.3}\times 10^{-12} \, \mathrm{yr}^{-1}$, again at $2σ$. These bounds are significantly stronger than those from previous primordial nucleosynthesis studies, and are comparable and complementary to CMB, stellar, solar system, lunar laser ranging, pulsar timing and gravitational wave constraints.

description: To approximate arbitrary unitary transformations on one or more qubits, one must perform transformations which are outside of the Clifford group. The gate most commonly considered for this purpose is the T = diag(1, exp(i π/4)) gate. As T gates are computationally expensive to perform fault-tolerantly in the most promising error-correction technologies, minimising the "T-count" (the number of T gates) required to realise a given unitary in a Clifford+T circuit is of great interest. We describe techniques to find circuits with reduced T-count in unitary circuits, which develop on the ideas of Heyfron and Campbell [arXiv:1712.01557] with the help of the ZX calculus. Following [arXiv:1712.01557], we reduce the problem to that of minimising the T count of a CNOT+T circuit. The ZX calculus motivates a further reduction to simplifying a product of commuting "π/4-parity-phase" operations: diagonal unitary transformations which induce a relative phase of exp(i π/4) depending on the outcome of a parity computation on the standard basis (which motivated Kissinger and van de Wetering [1903.10477] to introduce "phase gadgets"). For a number of standard benchmark circuits, we show that these techniques -- in some cases supplemented by the TODD subroutine of Heyfron and Campbell [arXiv:1712.01557] -- yield T-counts comparable to or better than the best previously known results.

description: China has undertaken a historic task to expand its economic influence across half of the world through its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). China is willing to pursue economic advances under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which are seen as beneficial by China's partners. For China, the Belt and Road Initiative provides a platform to develop ties with neighboring Asian countries while fostering the development of its own extensive high-speed rail network as a means to export high-end technology and services. The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has set the tone for cross-regional connectivity, fostering bilateral and multilateral cooperation, creates a platform for better understanding and awareness of the Chinese culture and creates a channel for the ease of better communication, between China and its Asian neighbors in South and Southeast Asia.

description: We study Drell-Yan (DY) dilepton production in proton(deuterium)-nucleus and in nucleus-nucleus collisions within the light-cone color dipole formalism. This approach is especially suitable for predicting nuclear effects in the DY cross section for heavy ion collisions, as it provides the impact parameter dependence of nuclear shadowing and transverse momentum broadening, quantities that are not available from the standard parton model. For p(D)+A collisions we calculate nuclear shadowing and investigate nuclear modification of the DY transverse momentum distribution at RHIC and LHC for kinematics corresponding to coherence length much longer than the nuclear size. Calculations are performed separately for transversely and longitudinally polarized DY photons, and predictions are presented for the dilepton angular distribution. Furthermore, we calculate nuclear broadening of the mean transverse momentum squared of DY dileptons as function of the nuclear mass number and energy. We also predict nuclear effects for the cross section of the DY process in heavy ion collisions. We found a substantial nuclear shadowing for valence quarks, stronger than for the sea.

description: We study classical solutions describing rotating and boosted membranes on AdS_7 x S^4 background in M-theory. We find the dependence of the energy on the spin and R-charge of these solutions. In the flat space limit we get E ~ S^{2/3}, while for AdS at leading order E-S grows as S^{1/3}.

description: We study the heavy-light mesons within basis light-front quantization. The resulting mass spectra of $D$, $D_s$, $B$, and $B_s$ agree reasonably well with experiments. We also predict states which could be measured in the near future. In the light-front formalism, we calculate the light-front wave functions and additional experimental observables, such as parton distribution functions, distribution amplitudes, and decay constants by means of integrations over light-front wave functions. We also provide ratios of decay constants for selected pseudoscalar meson decays ($D_s$ to $D$ and $B_s$ to $B$) as they may prove to be theoretically more robust and more reliably determined in experiments. We find that our ratios are systematically smaller than existing experiment and other approaches by $5-18\%$.
