Capture of stellar--mass compact objects by massive black holes in galactic cusps

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: A significant fraction of the stellar population in the cusp around central black holes of galaxies consists of compact remnants of evolved stars, such as white dwarfs, neutron stars and stellar mass black holes. We estimate the rate of capture of compact objects by massive central black holes, assuming most spiral galaxies have a central black hole of modest mass ($\sim 10^6 \msun$), and a cuspy spheroid. It is likely that the total capture rate is dominated by nucleated spirals. We estimate the flux of gravitational wave radiation from such coalescences, and the estimated detectable source count for proposed space--based gravitational wave observatories such as LISA. About one event per year should be detectable within $1 \, {\rm Gpc}$, given very conservative estimates of the black hole masses and central galactic densities. We expect $10^2$--$10^3$ detectable sources at lower frequencies ($10^{-4}$ Hz) ``en route'' to capture. If stellar mass black holes are ubiquitous, the signal may be dominated by stellar mass black holes coalescing with massive black holes. The rate of white dwarf--white dwarf mergers in the cores of nucleated spirals is estimated at $\sim10^{-6}$ per year per galaxy.

description: We discuss the relation between arc index, maximal Thurston--Bennequin number, and Khovanov homology for knots. As a consequence, we calculate the arc index and maximal Thurston--Bennequin number for all knots with at most 11 crossings. For some of these knots, the calculation requires a consideration of cables which also allows us to compute the maximal self-linking number for all knots with at most 11 crossings.

description: Robotics sets have been successfully used in elementary and secondary schools in conformance with the 'learning through play' philosophy fostered by LEGO Education, while utilizing the Constructionism didactic approach. Learners discover and acquire knowledge through first-hand tangible experiences, building their own representations in a constructivist learning process. Usual pedagogical goals of the activities include introduction to the principles of control, mechanics, programming, and robotics [1]. They are organized as hands-on learning situations with teamwork cooperation of learners, project-based learning, sharing and presentations of the learners group experiences. Arriving from this tradition, we focus on a slightly different scenarios: employing the robotics sets and the named approaches when learning Physics, Mathematics, Art, Science, and other subjects. In carefully designed projects, learners build interactive models that demonstrate concepts, principles, and phenomena, perform experiments, and modify them in elaboration phases with the aim to connect, create associations and links to the actual underlying theoretical curriculum. In this way, they are collecting practical experiences which are prerequisite to successful learning process. Based on feedback from children, we continue upon two previous sets of activities that focused on Physics and Mathematics, this time with projects built around games. Learners play various games with physical artifacts in the real-world - with the models they build. They acquire skills while playing the games, analyze them, and learn about the underlying principles. They modify the game rules, strategies, create extensions, and interact with each other in an entertaining and engaging settings. This time we have designed the activities together with the children, students of applied robotics seminar, and a student of Applied Informatics.

description: The measurements of reactions $π^- p \to π^- π^+ n$ and $π^+ n \to π^+ π^- p$ on polarized targets at CERN found a strong dependence of pion production amplitudes on nucleon spin. Analyses of recent measurements of $π^- p \to π^0π^0 n$ reaction on unpolarized targets by GAMS Collaboration at 38 GeV/c and BNL E852 Collaboration at 18 GeV/c use the assumption that pion production amplitudes do not depend on nucleon spin, in conflict with the CERN results on polarized targets. We show that measurements of $π^- p \to π^0π^0 n$ and $π^- p \to ηηn$ on unpolarized targets can be analysed in a model independent way in terms of 4 partial-wave intensities and 3 independent interference phases in the mass region where $S$- and $D$-wave dominate. We also describe model-independent amplitude analysis of $π^- p \to π^0π^0 n$ reaction measured on polarized target, both in the absence and in the presence of $G$-wave amplitudes. We suggest that high statistics measurements of reactions $π^- p \to π^0 π^0 n$ and $π^- p \to ηηn$ be made on polarized targets at Protvino IHEP and at BNL, and that model-independent amplitude analyses of this polarized data be performed to advance hadron spectroscopy on the level of spin dependent production amplitudes.

description: There are many orthodoxies about how economic processes work. That suchknowledge has become orthodox does not make them either accurate or useful.When it comes to longer-term economics, orthodoxy tends to give way to mystery.Why have some states become so much more affl uent than others? Why do someplaces remain impoverished while others fl ourish? Why do economic growth ratesfl uctuate so much? Why do economies move back and forth between years of prosperityand years of recession and depression? Once in recession or depression, whatdoes it take to get back to prosperity? Of course, it is not the case that there are noanswers to these questions. There are multiple answers but much less consensusabout what works and does not work.
Is the vacuum stable?

description: The experimental data, as well as theoretical considerations allow (and, in some cases, require) the Universe at present to rest in a false vacuum, whose approximate stability imposes constraints on the model parameters. Under very general and mild conditions, the Universe would have ended up in the standard vacuum even if the potential has deeper minima, provided there was a period in which the temperature was > 1 TeV. In many cases, the zero temperature tunneling rate is much smaller than the inverse age of the Universe. Future experiments may reveal that the physical vacuum is not entirely stable. Implications for the cosmological constant are discussed.

description: The present article analyzes the world order in the past, present and future as well as the main factors, foundations and ideas underlying the maintaining and change of the international and global order. The first two sections investigate the evolution of the world order starting from the ancient times up to the late twentieth century. The third section analyzes the origin and decline of the world order based on the American hegemony. The authors reveal the contradictions of the current unipolar world and explain in what way globalization has become more profitable for the developing countries but not for the developed ones. In the paper also explains the strengthening belief that the US leading status will inevitably weaken. In this connection we discuss the alternatives of the American strategy and the possibility of the renaissance of the American leadership. The last section presents a factor analysis which allows stating that the world is shifting toward a new balance of power and is likely to become the world without a leader. The new world order will consist of a number of large blocks, coalitions and countries acting within a framework of rules and mutual responsibility. However, the transition to
 a new world order will take certain time (about two decades). This period, which we denote as the epoch of new coalitions, will involve a reconfiguration of the World System and bring an increasing turbulence and conflict intensity.

description: We develop a general expression for the gamma-gamma absorption coefficient for gamma-rays propagating in an arbitrary direction at an arbitrary point in space above an X-ray emitting accretion disk. The X-ray intensity is assumed to vary as a power law in energy and radius between the outer disk radius and the inner radius, which is the radius of marginal stability for a Schwarzschild black hole. We use our result for the absorption coefficient to calculate the gamma-gamma optical depth for gamma-rays created at an arbitrary height and propagating at an arbitrary angle relative to the disk axis. As an application, we use our formalism to compute the minimum distance between the central black hole and the site of production of the gamma-rays detected by EGRET during the June 1991 flare of 3C 279. Our results indicate that the ``focusing'' of the gamma-rays along the disk axis due to pair production is strong enough to explain the observed degree of alignment in blazar sources. If the gamma-rays are produced isotropically in gamma-ray blazars, then these objects should appear as bright MeV sources when viewed along off-axis lines of sight.

description: Within the framework of this article we attempt to solve the following tasks:1. to demonstrate that as early as a few thousand years ago (at least since theformation of the system of long-distance and large-scale trade in metals in thefourth millennium BCE) the scale of systemic trade relations grew significantlybeyond the local level and became regional (and even transcontinental in acertain sense);2. to show that already in the late first millennium BCE the scale of processes andlinks within the Afroeurasian world-system not only exceeded the regional level,as well as reached the continental level, but it also went beyond continentallimits. That is why we contend that within this system, the marginal systemiccontacts between the agents of various levels (from societies to individuals) maybe defined as transcontinental (note that we deal here not only with overlandcontacts, because after the late first millennium BCE in some cases we can speakabout the oceanic contacts—the most salient case is represented here by theIndian Ocean communication network [for more details see Chew in this work]);3. to demonstrate that even prior to the Great Geographic Discoveries the scale ofthe global integration in certain respects could be compared with the globalintegration in more recent periods. In particular, in terms of demography, even 2000 years ago a really integrated part of the humankind encompassed 90% ofthe total world population.

description: A unique and novel SnO2 monolayer structure was introduced and studied by first-principles calculations basedon the density functional theory (DFT). Bonding nature and band gap relation to elastic properties were obtainedby fitting elastic energy as a function of Green-Lagrangian strain and calculating the elastic constants. Theapplication of uniaxial strain produced a small in-plane stiffness with high Poisson’s ratio. These values revealedno lateral stress was resulted on bonds by the applied longitudinal strain. Area stiffness constant was defined forin-plane area expansion or compression. A higher area stiffness was found for biaxially placed strains, attributedto bending of the Sn-O-Sn bonds, which imposed a direct strain on the Sn-O bonds. Also, the electrons band gapvaried from semiconductor energy at equilibrium atomic geometry to narrower gap with the application ofbiaxial strain. The variance was insignificant for the uniaxial strain case. We Show that the stability in the atomicbonding at strained conditions with fixed unit cell area gave controllability over the electronic state. Interlayerhybridization between O and Sn atoms made the band gap distinctly tunable with biaxial strain.

description: We study how exotic branes, i.e. branes whose tensions are proportional to $g_s^{-α}$, with $α>2$, are realised in Exceptional Field Theory (EFT). The generalised torsion of the Weitzenböck connection of the $\operatorname{SL}(5)$ EFT which, in the language of gauged supergravity describes the embedding tensor, is shown to classify the exotic branes whose magnetic fluxes can fit into four internal dimensions. By analysing the weight diagrams of the corresponding representations of $\operatorname{SL}(5)$ we determine the U-duality orbits relating geometric and non-geometric fluxes. As a further application of the formalism we consider the Kaluza-Klein monopole of 11D supergravity and rotate it into the exotic $6^{(3,1)}$-brane.

description: The cosmological 21cm signal offers a potential probe of the early Universe and the first ionizing sources. Current experiments probe the spatially-dependent variance (Gaussianity) of the signal through the power spectrum (PS). The signal however is expected to be highly non-Gaussian due to the complex topology of reionization and X-ray heating. We investigate the non-Gaussianities of X-ray heating and reionization, by calculating the skew spectrum (SS) of the 21cm signal using MERAXES, which couples a semi-analytic galaxy population with semi-numerical reionization simulations. The SS is the cross-spectrum of the quadratic temperature brightness field with itself. We generate a set of seven simulations from $z = 30$ to $z = 5$, varying the halo mass threshold for hosting star-formation, the X-ray luminosity per star-formation rate, and the minimum X-ray energy escaping host galaxies. We find the SS is predominantly negative as a function of redshift, transitioning to positive towards the start of reionization, and peaking during the midpoint of reionization. We do not see a negative dip in the SS during reionization, likely due to the specifics of modelling ionization sources. We normalise the SS by the PS during reionization isolating the non-Gaussianities. We find a trough ($k\sim\,0.1\,\textrm{Mpc}^{-1}$) and peak ($k\sim\,0.4-1\,\textrm{Mpc}^{-1}$) in the normalised SS during the mid to late periods of reionization. These correlate to the ionization topology, and neutral islands in the IGM. We calculate the cosmic variance of the normalised SS, and find these features are detectable in the absence of foregrounds with the SKA_LOW.

description: My name is Janet Trinder (nee Blake). Freddie was my husband. I didn't know Freddie until long after the War. I chased him. I met him at the Planning Office in Telephone House in Oxford alongside my dad in the 1950s. We courted for 10 years before we got engaged. My dad was a Senior Planning Engineer. Freddie spent six years and seven months in the Forces (RAF, Bomber Command) and he was 25 years old when he came out of the Forces in September 1946 after having completed 38 bombing raids over enemy territory. After the War, he worked for a while at the Production line of British Layland (in Oxford) and went on to the Post Office. Freddie worked in the Planning Group at the Post Office. I was a Drawing Office Assistant (a 'Tracer') for the same area that Freddie produced. I just fell for him 'like that'. As a part of a 5-man flying crew, Flight Lieutenant Freddie Trinder of 214 Squadron first flew in a Hampden aircraft which weren't serviceable enough, so then transferred to flying in a Halifax and a Stirling. Because it was a 5-man crew, that meant one person had two jobs. Freddie was a mid-upper airgunner and wireless op.See photos of Freddie as a young man. Freddie is 18 or 19 years old in the photo. He volunteered in the RAF very early as he was keen to fly (Read his text on "My Story. Thoughts and Life as a member of Bomber Crew"). See photo of RAF Prayer before a Mission, The King's Christmas Broadcast 1939, Author, Louise Haskins. The prayer that was recited by the RAF crew before boarding aircraft prior to bombing. Freddie completed 38 flying missions. See group photos dated May and June 1946 with signatures.See photo of Freddie's National Health & Pension members card 1936-1937

description: A regular $A_n$-crystal is an edge-colored directed graph, with $n$ colors, related to an irreducible highest weight integrable module over $U_q(sl_{n+1})$. Based on Stembridge's local axioms for regular simply-laced crystals and a structural characterization of regular $A_2$-crystals in \cite{DKK-07}, we present a new combinatorial construction, the so-called {\em crossing model}, and prove that this model generates precisely the set of regular $A_n$-crystals. Using the model, we obtain a series of results on the combinatorial structure of such crystals and properties of their subcrystals.

description: We demonstrate for the first time an efficient, photonic-based astronomical spectrograph on the 8-m Subaru Telescope. An extreme adaptive optics system is combined with pupil apodiziation optics to efficiently inject light directly into a single-mode fiber, which feeds a compact cross-dispersed spectrograph based on array waveguide grating technology. The instrument currently offers a throughput of 5% from sky-to-detector which we outline could easily be upgraded to ~13% (assuming a coupling efficiency of 50%). The isolated spectrograph throughput from the single-mode fiber to detector was 42% at 1550 nm. The coupling efficiency into the single-mode fiber was limited by the achievable Strehl ratio on a given night. A coupling efficiency of 47% has been achieved with ~60% Strehl ratio on-sky to date. Improvements to the adaptive optics system will enable 90% Strehl ratio and a coupling of up to 67% eventually. This work demonstrates that the unique combination of advanced technologies enables the realization of a compact and highly efficient spectrograph, setting a precedent for future instrument design on very-large and extremely-large telescopes.

description: Recent discussion of the effects of finite source size on high magnification microlensing events due to MACHOs motivates a study into the feasibility of observing such effects and extracting the source radius. Simulated observations are generated by adding Gaussian error to points sampled on theoretical microlensing light curves for a limb darkened, extended source. These simulated data sets are fitted in an attempt to see how well the fits extract the radius of the source. The source size can be fitted with reasonable accuracy only if the impact parameter of the event, $p$, is less than the stellar radius, $R_{\star}$. It is possible to distinguish ``crossing'' events, ones where $p

description: Recent years and months have evidenced an increase in deflationary phenomena.The present article defines the reasons for the problem, explains the irregularity ofthe inflation–deflation processes in the world and forecasts on this basis that thecrisis-depressive phase of development in the global economy will continue fora relatively long time. Based on an analysis of available resources and the theoryof long cycles, we believe that in the next 5–10 years, the global economy willcontinue being in the crisis-depression phase with rather sluggish and weak rises.The article also offers some forecasts for the forthcoming sixth Kondratieff wave(2020–the 2060/70s), identifies its possible technological basis, and discussespossible consequences of the forthcoming technological transformations.

description: We present analytic formulae for the heavy flavour coefficient functions for polarized deep inelastic lepton-hadron scattering. The expressions are valid in the kinematical regime $Q^2\gg m^2$ where $Q^2$ and $m^2$ stand for the masses squared of the virtual photon and heavy quark respectively. Using these coefficient functions we have computed the next-to-leading order $α_s$ corrections to polarized charm production at HERA collider energies, where both the electron and proton beams are polarized. We also give an estimate of these corrections at fixed target experiments where the typical $Q^2$ values are much smaller than at HERA.

description: We present a density functional theory study of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on a single atom catalyst embedded in graphene, namely, TM-N$_{4}$-C (TM = Fe and Co), using the effective screening medium method combined with the reference interaction site model (ESM-RISM). It was found that Fe-N$_{4}$-C and Co-N$_{4}$-C show comparable ORR activities from the constant electrode potential simulations, in contrast to the results obtained using the constant (neutral) charge simulation, in which the superior performance of Co-N$_{4}$-C has been predicted. The constant potential method allows the variable charge and thus results in a potential dependence of the reaction-free energies different from that with the constant charge method in which the potential dependence is included as an ad hoc manner. We suggest the importance of the variable charge in the simulation of the electrochemical reaction, which is enabled by ESM-RISM.

description: The diffuse soft X-ray emissivity from galactic winds is computed during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). We consider two analytic models, a pressure-driven wind and a superbubble model, and a 3D cosmological simulation including gas dynamics from the First Billion Years (FiBY) project. The analytic models are normalized to match the diffuse X-ray emissivity of star-forming galaxies in the nearby Universe. The cosmological simulation uses physically motivated star formation and wind prescriptions, and includes radiative transfer corrections. The models and the simulation all are found to produce sufficient heating of the Intergalactic Medium to be detectable by current and planned radio facilities through 21 cm measurements during the EoR. While the analytic models predict a 21 cm emission signal relative to the Cosmic Microwave Background sets in by $z_{\rm trans} \simeq 8 - 10$, the predicted signal in the FiBY simulation remains in absorption until reionization completes. The 21 cm absorption differential brightness temperature reaches a minimum of $ΔT \simeq -130$ to $-200$ mK, depending on model. Allowing for additional heat from high mass X-ray binaries pushes the transition to emission to $z_{\rm trans} \simeq 10 - 12$, with shallower absorption signatures having a minimum of $ΔT \simeq -110$ to $-140$ mK. The 21 cm signal may be a means of distinguishing between the wind models, with the superbubble model favouring earlier reheating. While an early transition to emission may indicate X-ray binaries dominate the reheating, a transition to emission as early as $z_{\rm trans} > 12$ would suggest the presence of additional heat sources.

description: We consider the convolution model where i.i.d. random variables $X_i$ having unknown density $f$ are observed with additive i.i.d. noise, independent of the $X$'s. We assume that the density $f$ belongs to either a Sobolev class or a class of supersmooth functions. The noise distribution is known and its characteristic function decays either polynomially or exponentially asymptotically. We consider the problem of goodness-of-fit testing in the convolution model. We prove upper bounds for the risk of a test statistic derived from a kernel estimator of the quadratic functional $\int f^2$ based on indirect observations. When the unknown density is smoother enough than the noise density, we prove that this estimator is $n^{-1/2}$ consistent, asymptotically normal and efficient (for the variance we compute). Otherwise, we give nonparametric upper bounds for the risk of the same estimator. We give an approach unifying the proof of nonparametric minimax lower bounds for both problems. We establish them for Sobolev densities and for supersmooth densities less smooth than exponential noise. In the two setups we obtain exact testing constants associated with the asymptotic minimax rates.

description: We explore the cosmological model in which a late-time mild inflation is realized after the star formation epoch. Non-vanishing curvature coupling of a classical boson field yields this mild inflation without a cosmological constant. Accordingly the lifetime of the present Universe is remarkably increased in our model. Thus we show that the present observed high value of the Hubble parameter $H_0 \approx 70-80{\rm km/sec/Mpc}$ is compatible with the age of the oldest stars $14{\rm Gyr}$ without introducing the cosmological constant or the open Universe model. Moreover in our model, the local Hubble parameter becomes larger than the global one. Thus we show that the present observed local Hubble parameter measured by using the Cepheid variables is compatible with the global Hubble parameter measured by using the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. We also examine the energy conditions, evolution of the effective gravitational constant and the nucleosynthesis process.

description: Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease of unknown etiology characterized by the formation of epithelioid giant cell granuloma without caseous necrosis in various organs. Its pathogenesis might be the result of an exaggerated granulomatous reaction after the exposure to unidentified antigens in genetically predisposed individuals. If the mediastino-thoracic manifestations are the most frequent (80-90%), the articular involvement is polymorphic and can be seen in 25 to 39% of the cases, mainly as polyarthralgia grouped in Löfgren’s syndrome. In spite of recent pathogenesis advances, its treatment is still poorly codified. It relies mainly on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, and methotrexate. Severe and refractory forms sometimes require the use of biological agents, offering therapeutic prospects for the future. The purpose of this article is to present the therapeutic options available to manage the articular involvement of sarcoidosis, in the light of the latest pharmacological advances.
description: La sarcoïdose est une maladie systémique d’étiologie inconnue caractérisée par la formation de granulomes épithélio-giganto-cellulaires sans nécrose caséeuse dans divers organes. Sa pathogénie serait le résultat d’une réaction granulomateuse exagérée après une exposition à des antigènes non identifiés chez des individus génétiquement prédisposés. Si les manifestations médiastino-thoraciques sont les plus fréquentes (80-90%), l’atteinte articulaire est polymorphe et peut se voir dans 25 à 39% des cas,sous forme de polyarthralgies entrant notamment dans le cadre du syndrome de Löfgren. Malgré des progrès récents permettant de mieux comprendre la pathogénie, son traitement reste encore mal codifié. Il repose principalement sur les anti-inflammatoires non stéroïdiens, la corticothérapie, et le méthotrexate. Les formes sévères et réfractaires nécessitent parfois le recours aux biothérapies, qui offrent des perspectives thérapeutiques d’avenir. Le but de cet article est de présenter l’arsenal thérapeutique disponible pour prendre en charge l’atteinte articulaire de la sarcoïdose, à la lumière des dernières avancées pharmacologiques.
