description: We have analyzed the position angle (PA) differences between radio jets and dust distributions in the centers of Fanaroff & Riley Type 1 (FRI) radio galaxies. We model the observed PA differences to infer the three-dimensional relative orientation of jet and dust. Our main conclusion is that there is a dichotomy in dust-jet-galaxy orientation both in projection and in three-dimensional space. The orientation dichotomy can explain the contradictory results obtained in previous studies. We briefly mention scenarios that might explain the dichotomy.

description: Fano resonance is widely discussed in designing novel terahertz components, such as sensors, filters, modulators, and group delay modules. Usually, high quality (Q) factor and flexible tunability of Fano resonance are key requirements for these applications. Here, we present tunable terahertz Fano resonance with a Q factor of 2095 at 0.439 THz in coupled terahertz whispering-gallery-mode resonators (WGMRs). Coupling between a relatively low Q (578) quartz ring and a high Q (2095) silicon ring is employed to generate the Fano resonance. The resonant frequency of the Fano resonance can be actively manipulated by tuning the resonant frequency of the high Q WGMR, which is achieved through utilizing an electrical thermo-optic tuning method, meanwhile, the resonance intensity of the Fano resonance can be engineered by adjusting the coupling strength between two WGMRs. This coupled-WGMR scheme delivers high Q tunable Fano resonance and may contribute to the design of high-performance configurable terahertz devices.

description: While it is a standard result in field theory that the scaling dimension of conserved currents and their associated gauge fields are determined strictly by dimensional analysis and hence cannot change under any amount of renormalization, it is also the case that the standard conservation laws for currents, $dJ=0$, remain unchanged in form if any differential operator that commutes with the total exterior derivative, $[d,\hat Y]=0$, multiplies the current. Such an operator, effectively changing the dimension of the current, increases the allowable gauge transformations in electromagnetism and is at the heart of Nöther's second theorem. We review here our recent work on one particular instance of this theorem, namely fractional electromagnetism and highlight the holographic dilaton models that exhibit such behavior and the physical consequences this theory has for charge quantization. Namely, the standard electromagnetic gauge and the fractional counterpart cannot both yield integer values of Planck's constant when they are integrated around a closed loop, thereby leading to a breakdown of charge quantization.

description: We propose to use high numerical aperture single mode optical fibers like photonic crystal fiber for lensless in-line holographic microscopy. Highly divergent beam helps to overcome the spatial sampling limitation of the image sensor. In this paper, a submicron lateral resolution has been demonstrated, with an imaging sensor of pixel pitch 1.12 micrometer and a photonic crystal fiber of mode field diameter 1.8 micrometer. In earlier methods of single-shot lensless imaging, submicron resolution has been obtained at very small working distance and field of view. The proposed method improves the resolution without compromising the working distance. A working distance of (but not limited to) ~1.7 mm with a field of View ~1.4 mm has been demonstrated.
Energy-Based Determination of Critical Velocity: A Quantum-Classical Transition Model
Creators: name: arrabal, humberto
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This thesis introduces a novel approach to the quantum-classical transition by calculating the critical velocity at which quantum coherence collapses into classical behavior. Unlike previous models, which often relied on arbitrary parameters, this work derives the critical velocity based on the particle’s kinetic energy compared to a quantum energy scale. The ratio of these energies defines the dimensionless parameter α\alphaα, which is then used to calculate the Arrabal Critical Velocity. This energy-based model provides a more physically grounded understanding of how quantum systems transition to classical states, with applications in quantum computing, cosmology, and high-energy physics. Experimental validation at CERN using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is proposed to test this theory.

description: Three polysaccharides, LTPS-1, LTPS-21 and LTPS-31 were isolated and purified from the seed cakes of lacquer tree using DEAE-52 cellulose and Sephadex G-200 column chromatography. The total sugar contents of LTPS-1, LTPS-21 and LTPS-31 were 931.8, 958.2 and 895.1 g kg−1, respectively. LTPS-1 (3.48 kDa) was mainly composed of rhamnose, arabinose, glucose and galactose in a ratio of 35.36:5.06:1:2. LTPS-21 (11.4 kDa) was mainly composed of rhamnose, arabinose, mannose and galactose in a ratio of 41.93:21.8:1.01:9.24. LTPS-31 (19.49 kDa) was mainly composed of rhamnose, arabinose and mannose in a ratio of 38.31:16.44:1.1. IR analysis suggested they contained lower sulphuric acids, the LTPS-21 and LTPS-31 belonged to β-type polysaccharide. Among the three polysaccharides, LTPS-21 exhibited the strongest reducing power, scavenging activity on ABTS and hydroxyl radicals. These findings suggested that polysaccharides from the seed cakes could be potentially developed as natural functional ingredients in the food and cosmetic industry.

description: Protoplanetary discs are the site of star and planet formation, and their evolution and consequent dispersal deeply affect the formation of planetary systems. In the standard scenario they evolve on timescales ~Myr due to the viscous transport of angular momentum. The analytical self-similar solution for their evolution predicts also specific disc isochrones in the accretion rate - disc mass plane. However, photoevaporation by radiation emitted by the central star is likely to dominate the gas disc dispersal of the innermost region, introducing another (shorter) timescale for this process. In this paper, we include the effect of internal (X and EUV) photoevaporation on the disc evolution, finding numerical solutions for a population of protoplanetary discs. Our models naturally reproduce the expected quick dispersal of the inner region of discs when their accretion rates match the rate of photoevaporative mass loss, in line with previous studies. We find that photoevaporation preferentially removes the lightest discs in the sample. The net result is that, counter-intuitively, photoevaporation increases the average disc mass in the sample, by dispersing the lightest discs. At the same time, photoevaporation also reduces the mass accretion rate by cutting the supply of material from the outer to the inner disc. In a purely viscous framework, this would be interpreted as the result of a longer viscous evolution, leading to an overestimate of the disc age. Our results thus show that photoevaporation is a necessary ingredient to include when interpreting observations of large disc samples with measured mass accretion rates and disc masses. Photoevaporation leaves a characteristic imprint on the shape of the isochrone. Accurate data in the accretion rate - disc mass plane in the low disc mass region therefore give clues on the typical photoevaporation rate.

description: Decrease in the revised ALS Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R) score is currently the most widely used measure of disease progression. However, it does not sufficiently encompass the heterogeneity of ALS. We describe a measure of variability in ALSFRS-R scores and demonstrate its utility in disease characterization. We used 5030 ALS clinical trial patients from the Pooled Resource Open-Access ALS Clinical Trials database to calculate variability in disease progression employing a novel measure and correlated variability with disease span. We characterized the more and less variable populations and designed a machine learning model that used clinical, laboratory and demographic data to predict class of variability. The model was validated with a holdout clinical trial dataset of 84 ALS patients (NCT00818389). Greater variability in disease progression was indicative of longer disease span on the patient-level. The machine learning model was able to predict class of variability with accuracy of 60.1–72.7% across different time periods and yielded a set of predictors based on clinical, laboratory and demographic data. A reduced set of 16 predictors and the holdout dataset yielded similar accuracy. This measure of variability is a significant determinant of disease span for fast-progressing patients. The predictors identified may shed light on pathophysiology of variability, with greater variability in fast-progressing patients possibly indicative of greater compensatory reinnervation and longer disease span. Increasing variability alongside decreasing rate of disease progression could be a future aim of trials for faster-progressing patients.

description: We evaluate the typical ARA performance of the CDMA multiuser detection by means of statistical mechanics using the replica method. At first, we consider the oracle cases where the initial candidate solution is randomly generated with a fixed fraction of the original signal in the initial state. In the oracle cases, the first-order phase transition can be avoided or mitigated by ARA if we prepare for the proper initial candidate solution. We validate our theoretical analysis with quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The theoretical results to avoid the first-order phase transition are consistent with the numerical results. Next, we consider the practical cases where we prepare for the initial candidate solution obtained by commonly used algorithms. We show that the practical algorithms can exceed the threshold to avoid the first-order phase transition. Finally, we test the performance of ARA with the initial candidate solution obtained by the practical algorithm. In this case, the ARA can not avoid the first-order phase transition even if the initial candidate solution exceeds the threshold to avoid the first-order phase transition.

description: We develop a relativistic mean field (RMF) description of deformed nuclei with the pairing correlations in the BCS approximation. The treatment of the pairing correlations for nuclei with the Fermi surface being close to the threshold of unbound states needs a special attention. To this end, we take the delta function interaction for the pairing interaction with the hope to pick up those states with the wave function being concentrated in the nuclear region and perform the standard BCS approximation for the single particle states generated by the RMF theory with deformation. We apply the RMF + BCS method to the Zr isotopes and obtain a good description of the binding energies and the nuclear radii of nuclei from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line.

description: We report here the first polarimetric measurements of the pulsars in the J0737-3039 binary neutron star system using the Green Bank Telescope. We conclude both that the primary star (A) has a wide hollow cone of emission, which is an expected characteristic of the relatively open magnetosphere given its short spin period, and that A has a small angle between its spin and magnetic dipole axes, $4\pm 3$ degrees. This near alignment of axes suggests that A's wind pressure on B's magnetosphere will depend on orbital phase. This variable pressure is one mechanism for the variation of flux and profile shape of B with respect to the orbital phase that has been reported. The response of B to the A wind pressure will also depend on the particular side of its magnetosphere facing the wind at the spin phase when B is visible. This is a second possible mechanism for variability. We suggest that B may have its spin axis aligned with the orbital angular momentum owing to A's wind torque that contributes to its spindown. Monitoring the pulsars while geodetic precession changes spin orientations will provide essential evidence to test detailed theoretical models. We determine the Rotation Measures of the two stars to be $-112.3\pm 1.5$ and $-118\pm 12$ rad m$^{-2}$.

description: In this study, I explored the voices of Indigenous students and teachers, who, despite the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action (2015), continue to be underrepresented in online learning at post-secondary institutions in Canada. This dissertation draws upon the narrative inquiry methodology to explore accounts of lived experiences through in-depth interviews and Sharing Circles. Data analysis included contextualisation and an inductive thematic analysis, which yielded seven themes: 1. Widening participation, 2. Building capacity, 3. Digital inequity, 4. Text-based dominance, 5. Impersonal environment, 6. Role and impact of peers, 7. Teacher presence. Overall, findings reveal that despite the potential and benefits of online learning for Indigenous students, barriers persist. Efforts must be increased to design and teach online courses in decolonizing ways. Nine tentative design recommendations are proposed.

description: In the modular symmetry approach to neutrino models, the flavour symmetry emerges as a finite subgroup $Γ_N$ of the modular symmetry, broken by the vacuum expectation value (VEV) of a modulus field $τ$. If the VEV of the modulus $τ$ takes some special value, a residual subgroup of $Γ_N$ would be preserved. We derive the fixed points $τ_S=i$, $τ_{ST}=(-1+i\sqrt{3})/2$, $τ_{TS}=(1+i\sqrt{3})/2$, $τ_T=i\infty$ in the fundamental domain which are invariant under the modular transformations indicated. We then generalise these fixed points to $τ_f=γτ_S$, $γτ_{ST}$, $γτ_{TS}$ and $γτ_{T}$ in the upper half complex plane, and show that it is sufficient to consider $γ\inΓ_{N}$. Focussing on level $N=4$, corresponding to the flavour group $S_4$, we consider all the resulting triplet modular forms at these fixed points up to weight 6. We then apply the results to lepton mixing, with different residual subgroups in the charged lepton sector and each of the right-handed neutrinos sectors. In the minimal case of two right-handed neutrinos, we find three phenomenologically viable cases in which the light neutrino mass matrix only depends on three free parameters, and the lepton mixing takes the trimaximal TM1 pattern for two examples. One of these cases corresponds to a new Littlest Modular Seesaw based on CSD$(n)$ with $n=1+\sqrt{6}\approx 3.45$, intermediate between CSD$(3)$ and CSD$(4)$. Finally, we generalize the results to examples with three right-handed neutrinos, also considering the level $N=3$ case, corresponding to $A_4$ flavour symmetry.

Evidence for local mass accretion rate variations in the disc of GRS 1915+105

description: We have analysed 16 observations of class beta of GRS 1915+105 performed with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. We show the time-resolved evolution (every 16 seconds) of the X-ray spectral parameters during these observations. The three model independent states (A, B, C) identified in the color-color diagrams are described here in terms of the more physical (and model dependent) quantities of the disc and power law components. As in the color analysis, we observe specific and time-asymmetric transitions between states. Within a single observation, we identified a loop-like cycle of the power law spectral index that starts and ends with the ending of state C. There is evidence of local mass accretion rate variations and mass loss during the long instability intervals (long state C). This is consistent with simultaneous radio and X-ray observations that show a one-to-one relation between the long state C and the radio flares, that occur shortly after it: a loss of disc mass is followed by an ejection of matter in the jet.

Field-theoretical three-body relativistic equations for the multichannel $πN γN ππN γπN$ reactions

description: A new kind of the relativistic three-body equations for the coupled $πN$ and $γN$ scattering reactions with the $ππN$ and $γπN$ three particle final states are suggested. These equations are derived in the framework of the standard field-theoretical $S$-matrix approach in the time-ordered three dimensional form. Therefore corresponding relativistic covariant equations are three-dimensional from the beginning and the considered formulation is free of the ambiguities which appear due to a three dimensional reduction of the four dimensional Bethe-Salpeter equations. The solutions of the considered equations satisfy the unitarity condition and are exactly gauge invariant even after the truncation of the of the multiparticle ($n>3$) intermediate states. Moreover the form of these three-body equations does not depend on the choice of the model Lagrangian and it is the same for the formulations with and without quark degrees of freedom. The effective potential of the suggested equations is defined by the vertex functions with two on-mass shell particles. It is emphasized that these INPUT vertex functions can be constructed from experimental data. Special attention is given to the construction of the intermediate on shell and off shell $Δ$ resonance states. These intermediate $Δ$ states are obtained after separation of the $Δ$ resonance pole contributions in the intermediate $πN$ Green function. The resulting amplitudes for the $Δ\Longleftrightarrow Nπ$; $Δ\Longleftrightarrow Nγ;$ $% Δ^{\prime}\Longleftrightarrow Δγ$ transition have the same structure as the vertex functions for transitions between the on mass shell particle states with spin 1/2 and 3/2.

description: Using accurate positions from very deep radio observations to guide multi-object Keck spectroscopy, we have determined a substantially complete redshift distribution for very luminous, distant submillimeter(submm)-selected galaxies (SMGs). A sample of 73 redshifts for SMGs in 7 fields contains a surprisingly large number of `associations': systems of SMGs with Mpc-scale separations, and redshifts within 1200 km/s. This sample provides tentative evidence of strong clustering of SMGs at redshifts z~2-3 with a correlation length of about 6.9 +- 2.1 Mpc/h, using a simple pair-counting approach that is appropriate to the small, sparse SMG samples. This is somewhat greater than the well-determined correlation lengths for both z~3 optical-ultraviolet(UV) color-selected Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) and z~2 QSOs. This could indicate that SMGs trace the densest large-scale structures in the high-redshift Universe, and that they may either be evolutionarily distinct from LBGs and QSOs, or subject to a more complex astrophysical bias.

description: 2I/Borisov is the second interstellar object (ISO) after 'Oumuamua (Meech et al. 2017), but differs from 'Oumuamua drastically with its extensive cometary activity. A key ingredient to understand the nature of this comet is its size. However, due to its cometary activity and extended coma in the optical, only rough estimates and upper limits can be made for 2I/Borisov, ranging in a wide spread from 0.7 to 3.8 km (Guzik et al. 2019; Fitzsimmons et al. 2019; Jewitt, & Luu 2019; Bolin et al. 2019). It has been shown that observations at longer wavelengths (i.e. infrared) are less susceptible to the effects of coma, and can provide a better estimate of the size of the comet nucleus (see, e.g., Fernández et al. 2013; Bauer et al. 2017). Here we present an estimate of the nucleus of 2I/Borisov from infrared observations by FLAMINGOS-2 on-board the Gemini South telescope (under Fast Turnaround program GS-2019B-FT-207), and infer a comet nucleus size of 1.5 km, comparable to but more stringent than the estimate from Keck AO imaging by Bolin et al. (2019).

The Stability of Hyperbolic PDEs in String Theory, Particle Physics and Cosmology

Subjects: analysis of PDEs, mathematical physics

description: In this thesis we study hyperbolic PDEs arising from general relativity and the standard model of particle physics. In particular we prove the asymptotic stability of special solutions of these PDEs against small initial data perturbations. The study of stability elucidates our understanding of whether such PDEs can provide mathematically reasonable models for physical phenomena in our universe. In the first chapter, we prove the stability of a system of quasilinear wave equations satisfying the weak null condition. In particular, we prove that the Kaluza-Klein spacetime, the cartesian product of Minkowski spacetime with a circle, viewed as a solution to the vacuum Einstein equations, is stable to circle-independent perturbations. In the second chapter, we show that the Milne spacetime is a stable solution to the Einstein-Klein-Gordon equations. We upgrade a technique that uses the continuity equation complementary to L^2 estimates to control massive matter fields. In contrast to earlier applications of this idea we require a correction to the energy density to obtain sufficiently strong pointwise bounds. In the third chapter, we use the hyperboloidal foliation method to study an interesting PDE system relevant in particular physics. In particular we establish the stability of the ground state of the U(1) standard model of electroweak interactions. In particular, we investigate here the Dirac equation and consider a new energy functional for this field defined with respect to the hyperboloidal foliation of Minkowski spacetime. We provide a novel decay result for the Dirac equation which is uniform in the mass coefficient, and thus allows for the Dirac mass coefficient to be arbitrarily small. In the final chapter, we bring together ideas developed in the first three chapters and prove the stability, with respect to the evolution determined by the vacuum Einstein equations, of the Cartesian product of high-dimensional Minkowski space with a compact Riemannian manifold admitting nonzero parallel spinors. Such a product includes the example of special holonomy compactifications, which play a central role in string theory.

description: We investigate the lattice of clones that are generated by a set of functions that are induced on a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ by monomials. We study the atoms and coatoms of this lattice and investigate whether this lattice contains infinite ascending chains, or infinite descending chains, or infinite antichains. We give a connection between the lattice of these clones and semi-affine algebras. Furthermore, we show that the sublattice of idempotent clones of this lattice is finite and every idempotent monomial clone is principal.

description: The quantum Hall effect arises from the interplay between localized and extended states that form when electrons, confined to two dimensions, are subject to a perpendicular magnetic field. The effect involves exact quantization of all the electronic transport properties due to particle localization. In the conventional theory of the quantum Hall effect, strong-field localization is associated with a single-particle drift motion of electrons along contours of constant disorder potential. Transport experiments that probe the extended states in the transition regions between quantum Hall phases have been used to test both the theory and its implications for quantum Hall phase transitions. Although several experiments on highly disordered samples have affirmed the validity of the single-particle picture, other experiments and some recent theories have found deviations from the predicted universal behaviour. Here we use a scanning single-electron transistor to probe the individual localized states, which we find to be strikingly different from the predictions of single-particle theory. The states are mainly determined by Coulomb interactions, and appear only when quantization of kinetic energy limits the screening ability of electrons. We conclude that the quantum Hall effect has a greater diversity of regimes and phase transitions than predicted by the single-particle framework. Our experiments suggest a unified picture of localization in which the single-particle model is valid only in the limit of strong disorder.

description: This paper provides a comparative study about seasonal influence on editorial decisions for papers submitted to two peer review journals. We distinguish a specialized one, the Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society (JSCS) and an interdisciplinary one, Entropy. Dates of electronic submission for about 600 papers to JSCS and 2500 to Entropy have been recorded over 3 recent years. Time series of either accepted or rejected papers are subsequently analyzed. We take either editors or authors view points into account, thereby considering magnitudes and probabilities. In this sample, it is found that there are distinguishable peaks and dips in the time series, demonstrating preferred months for the submission of papers. It is also found that papers are more likely accepted if they are submitted during a few specific months, - these depending on the journal. The probability of having a rejected paper also appears to be seasonally biased. In view of clarifying reports with contradictory findings, we discuss previously proposed conjectures for such effects, like holiday effects and the desk rejection by editors. We conclude that, in this sample, the type of journal, specialized or multidisciplinary, seems to be the drastic criterion for distinguishing the outcomes rates.

Discovery of X-ray QPOs from an Ultra-luminous X-ray Source in M82: Evidence Against Beaming
Creators: name: Strohmayer, Tod E.
name: Mushotzky, Richard F.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003

description: We report the discovery with the EPIC CCD cameras onboard XMM-Newton of a 54 mHz quasiperiodic oscillation (QPO) in the > 2 keV X-ray flux from an ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) in the starburst galaxy M82. This is the first detection of a QPO in the X-ray flux from an extra-Galactic ULX, and confirms that the source is a compact object. Based on the QPO strength and previous Chandra observations it appears likely that the QPO is associated with the most luminous object in the central region of M82, CXOM82 J095550.2+694047, however, XMM imaging alone is not sufficient to unambiguously confirm this. The other plausible candidate is CXOM82 J095551.1+694045, however, the QPO luminosity is comparable to the peak luminosity of this object in Chandra observations, which argues against it being the source of the QPO. The QPO had a centroid frequency of 54.3 +- 0.9 mHz, a coherence of 5, and an amplitude (rms) in the 2 - 10 keV band of 8.5%. Below 0.2 Hz the power spectrum can be described by a power-law with index ~1, and amplitude (rms) of 13.5%. The X-ray spectrum requires a curving continuum, with a disk-blackbody (diskbb) at T = 3.1 keV providing an acceptable fit. A broad Fe line centered at 6.55 keV is required in all fits, but the equivalent width (EW) is sensitive to the continuum model. There is no evidence of a reflection component. The implied bolometric luminosity is 4 - 5 x 10^{40} ergs/sec. Archival Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) pointings at M82 also show evidence for QPOs in the 50 - 100 mHz frequency range. We discuss the implications of our findings for models of ULXs.

description: Infolge des Klimawandels wird erwartet, dass Ertragsschwankungen in Zukunft zunehmen. Angesichts dessen wird der Einsatz von Ertrags- (ErtV) und Wetterindexversicherungen (WIV) diskutiert. Allerdings ist aus unternehmerischer Sicht nicht die alleinige Stabilisierung des Ertrags, sondern die Stabilisierung einer Erfolgsgröße des gesamten Unternehmens, z. B. des Gesamtdeckungsbeitrags (GDB) relevant. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie ist es deshalb, die Wirkung von ErtV und WIV auf der Ebene des Gesamtunternehmens darzustellen. Dazu wird in einer deutschlandweiten empirischen Studie bei 377 haupterwerblichen Ackerbaubetrieben die risikoreduzierende Wirkung von ErtV und WIV untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass eine Ausrichtung der Hedgingstrategie auf den Ausgleich von Ertragsschwankungen für viele Betriebe zu einer geringen Reduzierung des unternehmerischen Risikos führt und einzelbetrieblich sogar risikoerhöhend wirken kann. Eine alleinige Absicherung des Weizenertrages leistet, selbst bei einer vergleichsweise hohen Spezialisierung auf den Weizenanbau und unter bestmöglichem Hedgingdesign, nur einen kleinen Beitrag zum gesamtbetrieblichen Risikomanagement. Die Hedgingeffektivität einer WIV basierend auf dem Niederschlag in der phänologischen Phase „Schossen“ ist selbst in niederschlagsarmen Regionen wie Brandenburg gering. In einzelnen Regionen zeigt die Absicherung eines Niederschlagsüberschusses statt eines Niederschlagsmangels die größere risikoreduzierende Wirkung.
