description: We calculate the contributions of the neutral top-pion, predicted by topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) theory, to top-charm production via the processes $γγ\longrightarrow\bar{t}c$ and $e^{+}e^{-}\longrightarrow γγ\longrightarrow \bar{t}c$ at the high energy linear $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider (LC) experiments. The cross section is of order $10^{-2}pb$ in most of the parameter space of TC2 theory, which may be detected at the LC experiments. So the process $e^{+}e^{-}\longrightarrow \bar{t}c$ can be used to detect the signature of TC2 theory.

description: Time of flight system (TOF) based on MRPC technology is widely used in modern physics experiments, and it also plays an important role in particle identification. With the increase of accelerator energy and luminosity, TOF system is required to indentify definite particles precisely under high rate environment. The MRPC technology TOF system can be defined as three generations. The first generation TOF is based on float glass MRPC and its time resolution is around 80ps, but the rate is relatively low (typically lower than 100Hz/cm2). The typical systems are TOF of RHIC-STAR, LHC-ALICE and BES III endcap. For the second generation TOF, its time resolution is in the same order with the first generation, but the rate capability is much higher. Its rate capability can reach 30kHz/cm2. The typical experiment with this high rate TOF is FAIR-CBM. The biggest challenge is on the third generation TOF. For example, the momentum upper limit of K/PI separation is around 7GeV/c for JLab-SoLID TOF system under high particle rate as high as 20kHz/cm2, the time requirement is around 20ps. The readout electronics of first two generations is based on time over threshold method and pulse shape sampling technology will be used in the third generation TOF. In the same time, the machine learning technology is also designed to analysis the time performance. In this paper, we will describe the evolution of MRPC TOF technology and key technology of each generation TOF.

description: New methods of calculating indices from the dot-probe task measure temporal dynamics in attention bias or fluctuations in attention bias towards and away from emotional stimuli over time. However, it is unclear how task-specific parameters such as stimulus valence and stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) as well as participant sex affect temporal dynamics in attention bias. To address this, male and female participants (N = 106) completed either a fearful or happy face dot-probe task with four levels of SOA (84 ms, 168 ms, 336 ms, and 672 ms). Results suggest that temporal dynamics in attention bias are (1) greatest at the longest SOA, (2) greater in females, and (3) insensitive to stimulus valence. These findings indicate that participant sex and task timing, but not stimulus valence, are related to temporal dynamics in attention bias and should be considered in future studies utilizing this approach.

description: Feynman rules for the vacuum amplitude of fermions coupled to external gauge and Higgs fields in a domain wall lattice model are derived using time--dependent perturbation theory. They have a clear and simple structure corresponding to 1--loop vacuum graphs. Their continuum approximations are extracted by isolating the infrared singularities and it is shown that, in each order, they reduce to vacuum contributions for chiral fermions. In this sense the lattice model is seen to constitute a valid regularization of the continuum theory of chiral fermions coupled to weak and slowly varying gauge and Higgs fields. The overlap amplitude, while not gauge invariant, exhibits a well defined (modulo phase conventions) response to gauge transformations of the background fields. This response reduces in the continuum limit to the expected chiral anomaly, independently of the phase conventions.

description: Accurately reproducing the physics behind the detonations of Type Ia supernovae and the resultant nucleosynthetic yields is important for interpreting observations of spectra and remnants. The scales of the processes involved span orders of magnitudes, making the problem computationally impossible to ever fully resolve in full star simulations in the present and near future. In the lower density regions of the star, the curvature of the detonation front will slow the detonation, affecting the production of intermediate mass elements. We find that shock strengthening due to the density gradient present in the outer layers of the progenitor is essential for understanding the nucleosynthesis there, with burning extending well below the density at which a steady-state detonation is extinct. We show that a complete reaction network is not sufficient to obtain physical detonations at high densities and modest resolution due to numerical mixing at the unresolved reaction front. At low densities, below 6$\times$10$^{5}$ g cm$^{-3}$, it is possible to achieve high enough resolution to separate the shock and the reaction region,and the abundance structure predicted by fully resolved quasi-steady-state calculations is obtained. For our best current benchmark yields, we utilize a method in which the unresolved portion of Lagrangian histories are reconstructed based on fully resolved quasi-steady-state detonation calculations. These computations demonstrate that under-resolved simulations agree approximately, $\sim$10\% in post-shock values of temperature, pressure, density, and abundances, with expected detonation structures sufficiently far from the under-resolved region, but that there is still room for some improvement in the treatment of subgrid reactions in the hydrodynamics to before better than 1$\%$ can be achieved at all densities.

description: To date, it has been a little agreement on what is called `neuromarketing´ and its practitioners, the `neuromarketers´. This is part of a field in which neurosciences and other disciplines converge, like marketing and subsidiary social sciences and economics. Central to this discipline is the professional profile of its developers. No research has been found that gives account of the profile of what is called neuromarketers. Which is the academic background and work experience that can respond to the neuromarketing intersection? Who are these professionals capable to face traditional market research studies and analyse fMRI results? This paper was designed to determine the professional background, education and work experience of the most influential professionals on neuromarketing from the academia and the industry. It examines the neuromarketers’ education background, their work experiences and publications to describe regularities and differences in their expertise and the particularities of it as a group.

description: Radial and elliptic flow in non-central heavy ion collisions can constrain the effective Equation of State(EoS) of the excited nuclear matter. To this end, a model combining relativistic hydrodynamics and a hadronic transport code(RQMD [17]) is developed. For an EoS with a first order phase transition, the model reproduces both the radial and elliptic flow data at the SPS. With the EoS fixed from SPS data, we quantify predictions at RHIC where the Quark Gluon Plasma(QGP) pressure is expected to drive additional radial and elliptic flow. Currently, the strong elliptic flow observed in the first RHIC measurements does not conclusively signal this nascent QGP pressure. Additional measurements are suggested to pin down the EoS.

description: Neuromarketing has emerged as a powerful perspective and a set of techniques which provides marketing studies what is consider a more objective approach than the given by traditional methods. In this context, neuroeconomics plays a vital role in neuromarketing since it is founded in the first studies which challenge the rational choice theory and the conception of homo economicus, as already did behavioral and experimental economics. As there is little published data on the common results of neuromarketing and neuroeconomics experiments, this investigation provides new insights into the brain activation areas found in the studies connected with economical, cognitive, emotional and marketing proceedings. We revise the previous applied research in neuromarketing, consumer neuroscience and neuroeconomics, to present a trustful revision of the most cited first analysis in the mentioned disciplines. Our investigation facilitates a rigorous state of the art, which would be useful for readers who are interested in these fields and are introducing themselves to them.

Growth and Entitlements The Analytics of the Green Revolution

description: In the preceding pages we have attempted a detailed rebuttal of the view that, given the prevailing structural constraints imposed by the unequal distribution of land and other assets, growth through Green Revolution must impoverish, or at best by-pass, the majority of rural poor. The approach has been essentially analytical rather than empirical, although empirical evidence has been drawn upon, mainly from South Asia, to validate the analytical conclusions. First, from the critical literature, a number of 'transmission mechanisms' were identified through which the new technology was supposed to either impoverish the poor or prevent them from gaining any benefits. Next, each of these mechanisms was subjected to a detailed analytical scrutiny in the light of both economic theory and empirical facts. This enquiry has led to the conclusion that the arguments typically advanced to support the thesis that the Green Revolution is no friend of the poor are fraught with severe problems. A more satisfactory analysis of the very same transmission mechanisms shows that the poor should actually benefit from the spread of the new technology, even without a radical redistribution of assets.

What We Can Learn About Nucleon Spin Structure From Recent Data

Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We have used recent polarized deep-inelastic scattering data from CERN and SLAC to extract information about nucleon spin structure. We find that the SMC proton data, the E142 neutron data and the deuteron data from SMC and E143 give different results for fractions of the spin carried by each of the constituents. These appear to lead to two different and incompatible models for the polarized strange sea. The polarized gluon distribution occuring in the gluon anomaly does not have to be large in order to be consistent with either set of experimental data. However, it appears that the discrepancies in the implications of these data cannot be resolved with any simple theoretical arguments. We conclude that more experiments must be performed in order to adequately determine the fraction of spin carried by each of the nucleon constituents.

description: This Innovative Practice Full Paper presents an approach of using software development artifacts to gauge student behavior and the effectiveness of changes to curriculum design. There is an ongoing need to adapt university courses to changing requirements and shifts in industry. As an educator it is therefore vital to have access to methods, with which to ascertain the effects of curriculum design changes. In this paper, we present our approach of analyzing software repositories in order to gauge student behavior during project work. We evaluate this approach in a case study of a university undergraduate software development course teaching agile development methodologies. Surveys revealed positive attitudes towards the course and the change of employed development methodology from Scrum to Kanban. However, surveys were not usable to ascertain the degree to which students had adapted their workflows and whether they had done so in accordance with course goals. Therefore, we analyzed students' software repository data, which represents information that can be collected by educators to reveal insights into learning successes and detailed student behavior. We analyze the software repositories created during the last five courses, and evaluate differences in workflows between Kanban and Scrum usage.

description: This study investigated the effects of wood-derived biochar (BC) applied at 1% to a C-poor silty-loam soil in the drought-tolerant (D24) and in the drought-sensitive (P1921) Pioneer Hi-Bred maize hybrids in pot and field trials (NE Italy). D24 had better growth than P1921 under rain-fed conditions without irrigation and soil amendment. The addition of biochar increased root growth in D24 (+38% root area) and decreases it in P1921 (−9%) at the silking stage, while the fraction of finer roots (<250 µm diam.) was reduced in D24 and increased in P1921. This led both hybrids to maintain the maximum transpiration at a lower fraction of transpirable soil water (from 82% to 45% in D24, and from 46% to 22% in P1921). There were no significant variations in plant nutrient contents, productivity and in the protein and starch contents of the grains, whereas the lipid content was reduced by biochar, particularly in P1921 (2.6% vs. 3% DW, −13%). We conclude that biochar can be profitably used to enhance drought tolerance in maize, possibly due to improvements in the physicochemical characteristics and the water content of treated soils, although maximum benefits are expected in drought-tolerant hybrids through increased root elongation and transpiration.

description: The standard technique for measuring the phase of a single mode field is heterodyne detection. Such a measurement may have an uncertainty far above the intrinsic quantum phase uncertainty of the state. Recently it has been shown [H. M. Wiseman and R. B. Killip, Phys. Rev. A 57, 2169 (1998)] that an adaptive technique introduces far less excess noise. Here we quantify this difference by an exact numerical calculation of the minimum measured phase variance for the various schemes, optimized over states with a fixed mean photon number. We also analytically derive the asymptotics for these variances. For the case of heterodyne detection our results disagree with the power law claimed by D'Ariano and Paris [Phys. Rev. A 49, 3022 (1994)].

description: Using a multiphase transport model (AMPT), which includes both initial partonic and final hadronic interactions, we study the rapidity distributions of charged particles such as protons, antiprotons, pions, and kaons in heavy ion collisions at RHIC. The theoretical results for the total charged particle multiplicity at midrapidity are consistent with those measured by the PHOBOS collaboration in central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt s$ = 56 and 130 AGeV. We find that these hadronic observables are much more sensitive to the hadronic interactions than the partonic interactions.

description: A framework for coherent pattern extraction and prediction of observables of measure-preserving, ergodic dynamical systems with both atomic and continuous spectral components is developed. It is based on an approximation of the generator of the system by a compact operator $W_τ$ on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). A key tool is that $W_τ$ is skew-adjoint , and thus can be characterized by a unique projection-valued measure, discrete by compactness, and an associated orthonormal basis of eigenfunctions. These eigenfunctions can be ordered in terms of a Dirichlet energy on the RKHS, and provide a notion of coherent observables under the dynamics akin to the Koopman eigenfunctions associated with the atomic part of the spectrum. In addition, the regularized generator has a well-defined Borel functional calculus allowing the construction of a unitary evolution group $\{ e^{t W_τ} \}_{t\in\mathbb{R}}$ on the RKHS, which approximates the unitary Koopman evolution group of the original system. We establish convergence results for the spectrum and Borel functional calculus of the regularized generator to those of the original system in the limit $τ\to 0^+$. Convergence results are also established for a data-driven formulation, where these operators are approximated using finite-rank operators obtained from observed time series. An advantage of working with an RKHS structure is that one can perform pointwise evaluation and interpolation through bounded linear operators, which is not possible in $L^p$ spaces. This enables the out of sample evaluation of data-approximated eigenfunctions, as well as data-driven forecasts initialized with pointwise initial data (as opposed to probability densities in $L^p$). The pattern extraction and prediction framework is numerically applied to three instances of ergodic dynamical systems with atomic and continuous spectra.

description: We study the quantum transport behavior of a normal-superconductor-normal junction based on type-II Weyl semimetal, which is arranged in the tilting direction of the Weyl semimetal. We find that both the crossed Andreev reflection and normal reflection are forbidden, while there will be double Andreev reflections and double electron transmissions for the incident electron from the semimetal side. Andreev reflections and transmissions occur both in the retro and specular directions simultaneously, symmetric about the normal of the interface but with different amplitudes, depending on the angle and energy of incident electrons. These transport processes make the junction here quite different from that based on the normal metal or graphene. In addition, the differential conductance is studied for experimental signatures. We find that the conductance is almost unaffected by the chemical potential and it is enhanced with increasing junction length.

description: I defend my arguments in quant-ph/9806002, which have recently been criticized by L. Vaidman (quant-ph/9811092). I emphasize that the correct usage of the ABL rule applies not to a genuine counterfactual statement but rather to a conjunction of material conditionals. I argue that the only kind of valid counterfactual statement one can make using the ABL rule is a ``might'' counterfactual, which is not adequate for the attribution of `elements of reality' to a quantum system.

description: Given a differentiable deformation of geometrically finite hyperbolic $3$-manifolds $(M_t)_t$, the Bonahon-Schläfli formula expresses the derivative of the volume of the convex cores $(C M_t)_t$ in terms of the variation of the geometry of its boundary, as the classical Schläfli formula does for the volume of hyperbolic polyhedra. Here we study the analogous problem for the dual volume, a notion that arises from the polarity relation between the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$ and the de Sitter space $\mathrm{dS}^3$. The corresponding dual Bonahon-Schläfli formula has been originally deduced from Bonahon's work by Krasnov and Schlenker. Here, making use of the differential Schläfli formula and the properties of the dual volume, we give a (almost) self-contained proof of the dual Bonahon-Schläfli formula, without making use of Bonahon's original result.

description: Recently developed analytic methods in the framework of the Field Correlator Method are reviewed in this series of four lectures and results of calculations are compared to lattice data and experiment. Recent lattice data demonstrating the Casimir scaling of static quark interaction strongly support the FCM and leave very little space for all other theoretical models, e.g. instanton gas/liquid model. Results of calculations for mesons, baryons, quark-gluon plasma and phase transition temperature demonstrate that new analytic methods are a powerful tool of nonperturbative QCD along with lattice simulations.

description: We calculate the O($α_s$) gluon Bremsstrahlung corrections to the inclusive decay $b \rightarrow s γ$, involving the full operator basis $\hat O_1$ -- $\hat O_8$. Confirming and extending earlier calculations of Ali and Greub, we give formulas for the total decay width as well as the perturbative photon spectrum, regarding the former as a necessary part of the forthcoming complete NLO analysis. We explore in detail the renormalization scale dependence of our results and find it considerably increased.

character evolution

description: Dinoflagellates are diverse and ecologically important protists characterized by many morphological and molecular traits that set them apart from other eukaryotes. These features include, but are not limited to, massive genomes organized using bacterially-derived histone-like proteins (HLPs) and dinoflagellate viral nucleoproteins (DVNP) rather than histones, and a complex history of photobiology with many independent losses of photosynthesis, numerous cases of serial secondary and tertiary plastid gains, and the presence of horizontally acquired bacterial rhodopsins and type II RuBisCo. Elucidating how this all evolved depends on knowing the phylogenetic relationships between dinoflagellate lineages. Half of these species are heterotrophic, but existing molecular data is strongly biased toward the photosynthetic dinoflagellates due to their amenability to cultivation and prevalence in culture collections. These biases make it impossible to interpret the evolution of photosynthesis, but may also affect phylogenetic inferences that impact our understanding of character evolution. Here, we address this problem by isolating individual cells from the Salish Sea and using single cell, culture-free transcriptomics to expand molecular data for dinoflagellates to include 27 more heterotrophic taxa, resulting in a roughly balanced representation. Using these data, we performed a comprehensive search for proteins involved in chromatin packaging, plastid function, and photoactivity across all dinoflagellates. These searches reveal that 1) photosynthesis was lost at least 21 times, 2) two known types of HLP were horizontally acquired around the same time rather than sequentially as previously thought; 3) multiple rhodopsins are present across the dinoflagellates, acquired multiple times from different donors; 4) kleptoplastic species have nucleus-encoded genes for proteins targeted to their temporary plastids and they are derived from multiple lineages, and 5) warnowiids are the only heterotrophs that retain a whole photosystem, although some photosynthesis-related electron transport genes are widely retained in heterotrophs, likely as part of the iron-sulfur cluster pathway that persists in non-photosynthetic plastids.

description: Recognising identity and emotion conveyed by the face is important for successful social interactions and has thus been the focus of considerable research. Debate has surrounded the extent to which the mechanisms underpinning face emotion and face identity recognition are distinct or share common processes. Here we use an individual differences approach to address this issue. In a well-powered (N = 605) and age-diverse sample we used structural equation modelling to assess the association between face emotion recognition and face identity recognition ability. We also sought to assess whether this association (if present) reflected visual short-term memory and/or general intelligence (g). We observed a strong positive correlation (r = .52) between face emotion recognition ability and face identity recognition ability. This association was reduced in magnitude but still moderate in size (r = .28) and highly significant when controlling for measures of g and visual short-term memory. These results indicate that face emotion and face identity recognition abilities in part share a common processing mechanism. We suggest that face processing ability involves multiple functional components and that modelling the sources of individual differences can offer an important perspective on the relationship between these components.

HQET and Form Factor Effects in $B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+\ell^-$

Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We examine the rates for the exclusive decays $B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+\ell^-$. We use the scaling predictions of the heavy quark effective theory to extract the necessary form factors from fits to various combinations of data. These data include the $D\to K^{(*)}\ellν$ semileptonic decays, as well as the nonleptonic decays $B\to K^{(*)}ψ^{(\prime)}$ and the rare decay $B\to K^*γ$. We use different parametrizations of form factors, and find that integrated decay rates are not very sensitive to the forms chosen. However, the decay spectra and the forward-backward asymmetry in $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ are sensitive to the forms chosen for the form factors, while the lepton polarization asymmetry in $\bar B^0\to \bar K^0μ^+μ^-$ is largely independent of the choice of form factors. Contributions from charmonium resonances dominate the spectra and integrated rates. In our `best' scenario, we find $Br(\bar B^0\to \bar K^0μ^+μ^-)=2.0\pm 0.3\times 10^{-6}$ and $Br(\bar B^0\to \bar K^{*0}μ^+μ^-)=8.1\pm 2.0\times 10^{-6}$. We also make predictions for other polarization observables in these decays.
