description: We obtain the thermal one loop free energy and the Hagedorn temperature of IIA superstring theory on the pp-wave geometry which comes from the circle compactification of the maximally supersymmetric eleven dimensional one. We use both operator and path integral methods and find the complete agreement between them in the free energy expression. In particular, the free energy in the $μ\to \infty$ limit is shown to be identical with that of IIB string theory on maximally supersymmetric pp-wave, which indicates the universal thermal behavior of strings in the large class of pp-wave backgrounds. We show that the zero point energy and the modular properties of the free energy are naturally incorporated into the path integral formalism.

description: We systematically derive an action for a nonrelativistic spinning partile in flat background and discuss its canonical formulation in both Lagrangian and Hamiltonian approaches. This action is taken as the starting point for deriving the corresponding action in a curved background. It is achieved by following our recently developed technique of localising the flat space galilean symmetry \cite{BMM1, BMM3, BMM2}. The coupling of the spinning particle to a Newton-Cartan background is obtained naturally. The equation of motion is found to differ from the geodesic equation, in agreement with earlier findings. Results for both the flat space limit and the spinless theory (in curved background) are reproduced. Specifically, the geodesic equation is also obtained in the latter case.

description: The dimuon plus dijet signal is analyzed in the top squark pair production at Tevatron Run-II experiment and the total event rate is compared with the existing dimuon data. This comparison rules out top squark mass upto 188(104) GeV for the branching fraction 100%(50%) of top squark decay into the muon plus quark via lepton number violating coupling. Interpretation of this limit in the framework of R-parity violating(RPV) SUSY model puts limit on relevant RPV coupling for a given top squark mass and other supersymmetric model parameters. If $\MST \lsim 180$ GeV we found that the RPV couplings are roughly restricted to be within $\sim 10^{-4}$ which is at the same ballpark value obtained from the neutrino data. The limits are very stringent for a scenario where top squarks appear to be the next lightest supersymmetric particles.

Microwave dissolution: Development and application of a new sample preparation technique
Creators: name: Jassie, Lois B.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Results presented here establish and quantify the theoretical basis for understanding the technique of microwave sample dissolution. Obstacles associated with temperature and pressure measurement in closed-vessel microwave digestions were overcome and studied in a systematic fashion. By measuring these parameters fundamental principles have been investigated. A complete microwave digestion system using 2450 MHz is described and mechanisms of microwave heating are discussed. Since microwave energy couples directly with the solvent medium, the behavior of mineral acids used for dissolution has been investigated and characterized. Equations for estimating the power absorptions of nitric, hydrochloric, hydrofluoric and sulfuric acids from 25-1000g are given. Procedures for determining the maximum power output of a microwave unit and a calibration scheme for determining the most useful linear region are documented. This information permits the transfer of analytical procedures from one microwave unit to another. Continuous, real-time monitoring of temperature provides new insights into matrix component decompositions. This capability allows the mechanism of decomposition to be observed and the procedures to be generalized to a variety of samples. Analysis of the decomposition behavior of the three principal classes of biological materials in nitric acid ranks carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids according to their decomposition temperatures. Optimal conditions for digestions now can be tailored specifically to the matrix. Reproducibility of thermal conditions of similar samples prepared by microwave dissolution is achieved by monitoring the temperature. The concept of modeling dissolution on the behavior of the acid is presented as an alternative to real-time measurements. Studies of the microwave interaction with mineral acids include (1) a comparison of acid absorption efficiencies and their relationship with mass and proportional power; (2) the prediction of the power absorption of mixtures by treating them additively; (3) the nature of heat loss from the vessels, power rejection, and their influence on measurement and prediction. Results for the analysis of selenium and mercury in sediment suggest that volatile analytes are retained in solution; these elements may now be determined directly and simultaneously with other trace metals. Practical applications for the microwave dissolution of soils, sediments, inorganic and biological matrices are presented along with a recommended procedure for high-particulate water.
Superstring Orientifolds with Torsion: O5 Orientifolds of Torus Fibrations and their Massless Spectra

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Using a ``Superstrings with Torsion'' type description, we study a class of IIB orientifolds in which spacefilling O5 planes and D5 branes wrap the T^2 fiber in a warped modification of the product of 4D Minkowski space and a T^2 fibration. For the case that the base is T^4, we provide examples that preserve 4D N = 1, 2, and 3 supersymmetry, both with internal RR flux, and with a combination of internal RR and NS flux. In these examples, the internal geometries admit integrable complex structure; however, the almost complex structure selected by the supersymmetry conditions is nonintegrable in the case that there is NS flux. We indicate explicitly the massless spectrum of gauge fields and moduli in each example. In a previous investigation, this class of orientifolds was studied using T-duality. Here, we extend the previous analysis, first by providing an intrinsic description that does not rely on duality, and then by elaborating on details of the T-duality map, which we use to check our results.

description: This paper studies fast downlink beamforming algorithms using deep learning in multiuser multiple-input-single-output systems where each transmit antenna at the base station has its own power constraint. We focus on the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) balancing problem which is quasi-convex but there is no efficient solution available. We first design a fast subgradient algorithm that can achieve near-optimal solution with reduced complexity. We then propose a deep neural network structure to learn the optimal beamforming based on convolutional networks and exploitation of the duality of the original problem. Two strategies of learning various dual variables are investigated with different accuracies, and the corresponding recovery of the original solution is facilitated by the subgradient algorithm. We also develop a generalization method of the proposed algorithms so that they can adapt to the varying number of users and antennas without re-training. We carry out intensive numerical simulations and testbed experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms. Results show that the proposed algorithms achieve close to optimal solution in simulations with perfect channel information and outperform the alleged theoretically optimal solution in experiments, illustrating a better performance-complexity tradeoff than existing schemes.

description: We study five-dimensional Kasner cosmologies in a time-dependent Calabi-Yau compactification of M-theory undergoing a flop transition. The dynamics of the additional states, which become massless at the transition point and give rise to a scalar potential, are taken into account using a recently constructed gauged supergravity action. Due to the dynamics of these states the moduli do not show the usual run-away behavior but oscillate around the transition region. Moreover, the solutions typically exhibit short periods of accelerated expansion. We also analyze the interplay between the geometries of moduli space and space-time.

description: We present the multi-wavelength analysis of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT~2018hyz (ASASSN-18zj). From follow-up optical spectroscopy, we detect the first unambiguous case of resolved double-peaked Balmer emission in a TDE. The distinct line profile can be well-modelled by a low eccentricity ($e\approx0.1$) accretion disk extending out to $\sim$100 $R_{p}$ and a Gaussian component originating from non-disk clouds, though a bipolar outflow origin cannot be completely ruled out. Our analysis indicates that in AT~2018hyz, disk formation took place promptly after the most-bound debris returned to pericenter, which we estimate to be roughly tens of days before the first detection. Redistribution of angular momentum and mass transport, possibly through shocks, must occur on the observed timescale of about a month to create the large \Ha-emitting disk that comprises $\lesssim$5\% of the initial stellar mass. With these new insights from AT~2018hyz, we infer that circularization is efficient in at least some, if not all optically-bright, X-ray faint TDEs. In these efficiently circularized TDEs, the detection of double-peaked emission depends on the disk inclination angle and the relative strength of the disk contribution to the non-disk component, possibly explaining the diversity seen in the current sample.

Large systems of random linear equations with non-negative solutions: Characterizing the solvable and unsolvable phase

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Large systems of linear equations are ubiquitous in science. Quite often, e.g. when considering population dynamics or chemical networks, the solutions must be non-negative. Recently, it has been shown that large systems of random linear equations exhibit a sharp transition from a phase, where a non-negative solution exists with probability one, to one where typically no such solution may be found. The critical line separating the two phases was determined by combining Farkas' lemma with the replica method. Here, we show that the same methods remain viable to characterize the two phases away from criticality. To this end we analytically determine the residual norm of the system in the unsolvable phase and a suitable measure of robustness of solutions in the solvable one. Our results are in very good agreement with numerical simulations.

description: With high-angular-resolution, near-infrared observations of the young stellar object T Tauri at the end of 2002, we show that, contrary to previous reports, none of the three infrared components of T Tau coincide with the compact radio source that has apparently been ejected recently from the system (Loinard, Rodriguez, and Rodriguez 2003). The compact radio source and one of the three infrared objects, T Tau Sb, have distinct paths that depart from orbital or uniform motion between 1997 and 2000, perhaps indicating that their interaction led to the ejection of the radio source. The path that T Tau Sb took between 1997 and 2003 may indicate that this star is still bound to the presumably more massive southern component, T Tau Sa. The radio source is absent from our near-infrared images and must therefore be fainter than K = 10.2 (if located within 100 mas of T Tau Sb, as the radio data would imply), still consistent with an identity as a low-mass star or substellar object.

description: Various studies have been implemented on the self-concepts of deaf children in comparison to other groups; however, no study has been found comparing self-concepts of deaf and hearing children who have deaf parents. This study compared a sample of hearing college students with a sample of deaf college students, all having deaf parents, on each of the nine dimensions of self-concept assessed through the revised form of the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS). It addressed the question: Do the measured self-concepts of hearing children reared by deaf parents differ significantly from those of deaf children of deaf parents?; The study hypothesized that deaf subjects with deaf parents would score significantly higher on six dimensions of self-concept that their hearing counterparts as measured by the TSCS: Total Positive, Identity, Self-Satisfaction, Behavior, Personal Self, and Family Self. It was postulated that the Physical Self, Moral-Ethical Self, and Social Self scores for the hearing subjects with deaf parents would be significantly higher than those for the deaf subjects with deaf parents. The student sample of deaf persons was comprised of volunteers from Gallaudet University. The sample of hearing college students was drawn through an appeal for volunteers from various organizations of the deaf. The study subjects consisted of 51 deaf and 58 hearing college students. Study data were elicited through two self-report type instruments, the aforementioned Tennessee Self-Concept Scale and the Personal Data Profile. The similarity of the two samples' characteristics was tested using chi-square analysis. The TSCS means and standard deviations for deaf and hearing samples were obtained and compared using Students' t-test to determine if significant differences existed. The.05 level of significance served as a rejection level for hypotheses testing. Significant differences were found between TSCS mean scores for the deaf and hearing college students on the Behavior and Moral-Ethical Self scales. No differences resulted on the other six subscales or on the Total Score of the revised form of the TSCS. These findings support the conclusion that parental deafness, while an inconvenience to some, is not deterrent to their children's overall self-esteem.

description: We present the results of a Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 F555W and F814W survey of 69 dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs) in the Virgo and Fornax Clusters and Leo Group. The $V-I$ colors of the dE globular clusters, nuclei, and underlying field star populations are used to trace the dE star-formation histories. We find that the dE globular cluster candidates are as blue as the metal-poor globular clusters of the Milky Way. The observed correlation of the dE globular cluster systems' $V-I$ color with the luminosity of the host dE is strong evidence that the globular clusters were formed within the the halos of dEs and do not have a pre-galactic origin. Assuming the majority of dE clusters are old, the mean globular cluster color- host galaxy luminosity correlation implies a cluster metallicity $-$ galaxy luminosity relation of $Z_{GC} \propto L_B^{0.22 \pm 0.05}$, which is significantly shallower than the field star metallicity - host galaxy luminosity relationship observed in Local Group dwarfs ($Z_{FS} \propto L^{0.4}$). The dE stellar envelopes are $0.1-0.2$ magnitudes redder in $V-I$ than their globular clusters and nuclei. This color offset implies separate star-formation episodes within the dEs for the clusters and field stars, while the very blue colors of two dE nuclei trace a third star-formation event in those dEs less than a Gyr ago.

Three civil-military configurations of rule are identified in praetorian societies: a civil-military configuration, whereby both civilian and military actors have autonomous input in politics and where no relation of subordination exists between them; a civil-military configuration of military hegemony and civilian subordination; and a civil-military configuration of civilian hegemony and military subordination. My main concern lies with the analysis of the process of change from military to civilian hegemony. My principal assumption is that regime transitions are marked by uncertainty and structural fluidity. Structural variables define the parameters but do not determine the process or the outcome of regime change. Unlike revolutions, transitions are changes from above that bring about significant political changes but little, if any, immediate socioeconomic change. I conceptualize the process of transition from military to civilian hegemony as a set of strategic games among rational civilian and military actors promoting different transitional strategies. This study's aim is threefold: to explain regime transition in Greece; to suggest generalizations for transitions in other praetorian societies; and to apply game theory to civil-military relations.

description: Combining electrostatic field simulations with Monte Carlo methods enables realistic modeling of the detector response for novel monolithic silicon detectors with strongly non-linear electric fields. Both the precise field description and the inclusion of Landau fluctuations and production of secondary particles in the sensor are crucial ingredients for the understanding and reproduction of detector characteristics. In this paper, a CMOS pixel sensor with small collection electrode design, implemented in a high-resistivity epitaxial layer, is simulated by integrating a detailed electric field model from finite element TCAD into a Monte Carlo based simulation with the Allpix$^2$ framework. The simulation results are compared to data recorded in test-beam measurements and very good agreement is found for various quantities such as cluster size, spatial resolution and efficiency. Furthermore, the observables are studied as a function of the intra-pixel incidence position to enable a detailed comparison with the detector behavior observed in data. The validation of such simulations is fundamental for modeling the detector response and for predicting the performance of future prototype designs. Moreover, visualization plots extracted from the charge carrier drift model of the framework can aid in understanding the charge propagation behavior in different regions of the sensor.

description: The time-dependent structure of the Lyapunov vectors corresponding to the steps of Lyapunov spectra and their basis set representation are discussed for a quasi-one-dimensional many-hard-disk systems. Time-oscillating behavior is observed in two types of Lyapunov modes, one associated with the time translational invariance and another with the spatial translational invariance, and their phase relation is specified. It is shown that the longest period of the Lyapunov modes is twice as long as the period of the longitudinal momentum auto-correlation function. A simple explanation for this relation is proposed. This result gives the first quantitative connection between the Lyapunov modes and an experimentally accessible quantity.

Conflict and peace in the making

description: This chapter discusses the evolution of the Colombian conflict and the existence of peacebuilding initiatives with different groups as part of the process of consolidation of statehood in Colombia since 1948. It presents a brief summary of the Colombian conflict, and of previous peace processes that took place in the country after 1948. The emergence of violence in modern Colombia saw its inception in the period known as 'La Violencia' (the violence), a wave of inter-party violence between 1948 and 1958 in which almost 2" of the population of the country was assassinated. This process led to the rise of multiple liberal guerrilla groups and armed right-wing groups. The birth and the origins of the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia—Ejercito del Pueblo are a matter of academic debate; the fourteen different accounts of the origin of the conflict in Colombia presented by the historical commission of the conflict of Colombia.

description: The teaching of mathematics in the sixteenth and early seventeenth century France was reduced to a bare minimum. Lack of enthusiasm in the teachers, lack of motivation in the students, and absence of creativity in researchers relegated mathematics to an insignificant role in education. Marin Mersenne (1588-1648), a French monk, spent about forty years promoting a greater interest in science. A scientist himself, he made contributions in music, in number theory, the study of functions, and physics. He corresponded with many scholars of his time, and motivated them to search for the solution of many specific problems. He had correspondents in France, Spain, England, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Italy, Egypt, and Turkey. Thanks to his mediation, many scholars could communicate among themselves, sharing the results of their studies. He was able to bring scholars together at regular meetings, where scientific papers were read, national and international publications were reviewed, correspondence with and from the most remote corners of Europe were exchanged, experiments were designed and discussed, and quarrels among scientists were settled. Eventually such regular meetings gave birth to the French Academy of Sciences. From Italy he brought to France Torricelli's barometric experiment, which led to the discovery of the atmospheric pressure, against the established Aristotelian philosophy. As a consequence, long established principles were brought under closer scrutiny: modern science was born. Mersenne was especially able to motivate young gifted students to pursue mathematical careers. He did this by proposing to them some problems in line with their interests and their level of preparation, suggesting relevant reading material, introducing them to well known scientists, involving them in his experiments, and sharing the credit with them. By the third decade of the seventeenth century the curriculum of the schools in France was beginning to be challenged, the teaching of mathematics became a noble profession, and the sciences started to attract the attention of every educated person. For his efforts in popularizing science and involving great scholars in scientific research and publication, Mersenne today can be a model for mentors.

description: 1. Violation of property rights has legal consequences. Legal arrangements of protection of rights begin to function. Such arrangements are a set of measures taken by a person to eliminate violations and restore the status quo. It is based on PROPERTY and BINDING remedies. PROPERTY: Recognition of rights; Reclamation of property from another's adverse possession and compensation for damage by such possession; Elimination of obstacles in any violation of rights, not combined with dispossession of property (elimination of obstacles to use); Establishing the procedure for possession, use and disposal of property being in joint ownership or use; Division of joint property Allocation of a share from joint property; Restoration of the co-owner`s right to acquire a share in joint property alienated in violation of the owner`s rights; Release of distrained property; Reimbursement of cost during requisition. BINDING: 1) invalidation of a transaction; 2) termination of the action violating the right; 3) restoration of the situation existed before the violation; 4) enforcement of an obligation in kind; 5) change of legal relationship; 6) termination of legal relationship; 7) indemnification and other methods of compensation for property damage; 8) compensation for moral (non-property) damage; 9) invalidation of decisions, actions or omissions of an authority and officials.
