description: The s+g mixed gap function Δ_k=Δ{[(1-x)-x\sin^4θ\cos4ϕ]} (x: weight of g-wave component) has been studied within BCS theory. By suitable consideration of the pairing interaction, we have confirmed that the coexistence of s- and g-wave, as well as the state with equal s and g amplitudes (i.e., x=1/2) may be stable. This provides the semi-phenomenological theory for the s+g-wave superconductivity with point nodes which has been observed experimentally in borocarbides YNi_2B_2C and possibly in LuNi_2B_2C.

Extended Press-Schechter theory and the density profiles of dark matter haloes
Creators: name: Hiotelis, Nicos
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An inside-out model for the formation of haloes in a hierarchical clustering scenario is studied. The method combines the picture of the spherical infall model and a modification of the extended Press-Schechter theory. The mass accretion rate of a halo is defined to be the rate of its mass increase due to minor mergers. The accreted mass is deposited at the outer shells without changing the density profile of the halo inside its current virial radius. We applied the method to a flat $ΛCDM$ Universe. The resulting density profiles are compared to analytical models proposed in the literature, and a very good agreement is found. A trend is found of the inner density profile becoming steeper for larger halo mass, that also results from recent N-body simulations. Additionally, present-day concentrations as well as their time evolution are derived and it is shown that they reproduce the results of large cosmological N-body simulations.

title: The Syndicated Loan Market: Developments in the North American Context
Creators: name: Armstrong, Jim
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2003

description: The author describes the rapid development of the syndicated corporate loan market in the 1990s. He explores the historical forces that led to the development of the contemporary U.S. syndicated loan market, which is effectively a hybrid of the investment banking and commercial banking worlds. He suggests that there has been a notable change in large corporate lending over the past decade, as the old bilateral bank-client lending relationships have been replaced by a world that is much more transaction-oriented and market-oriented. The Canadian syndicated loan market has been strongly influenced by its U.S. counterpart, but it is not yet at the same level of development.

The author explores potential risk issues for the new corporate loan market, including implications for the distribution of credit risk in the system, risks in the underwriting process, the monitoring function, and the potential for risk arising from asymmetric information.
description: L'auteur retrace les étapes de l'expansion rapide qu'a connue le marché des prêts consortiaux aux entreprises dans les années 1990. Il étudie les forces historiques qui ont mené au développement, aux États-Unis, de ce marché qui se situe à la confluence des services bancaires d'investissement et des services bancaires commerciaux. Il avance que la dynamique du crédit aux grandes entreprises a considérablement évolué au cours de la dernière décennie, les anciens rapports bilatéraux entre banques et clients ayant fait place à une orientation beaucoup plus nette vers les opérations et le marché. Le marché canadien des prêts consortiaux a été fortement influencé par son pendant américain, mais il n'a pas encore atteint le même degré de développement.

L'auteur explore les risques potentiels que pose le marché actuel des prêts aux entreprises, notamment du point de vue de la répartition du risque de crédit dans le système, ainsi que les risques relatifs au processus de prise ferme, à la fonction de surveillance et à l'asymétrie de l'information.
title: Some Notes on Monetary Policy Rules with Uncertainty
Creators: name: Srour, Gabriel
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2003

description: The author explores the role that Taylor-type rules can play in monetary policy, given the degree of uncertainty in the economy. The optimal rule is derived from a simple infinite-horizon model of the monetary transmission mechanism, with only additive uncertainty. The author then examines how this rule ought to be modified when there is uncertainty about the parameters, the time lags, and the nature of shocks. Quantitative evaluations are subsequently provided. In particular, it is shown that if the degree of persistence of inflation in the Phillips curve is not high, a simple rule such as the original Taylor rule that offsets demand shocks and puts a relatively small weight on inflation shocks may be an appropriate benchmark for the conduct of monetary policy. Conversely, it is argued that if the degree of persistence of inflation in the Phillips curve is high, then finding a Taylor-type rule that can act as a benchmark for monetary policy is likely to be difficult.
description: L'auteur explore le rôle que les règles à la Taylor peuvent jouer dans la conduite de la politique monétaire compte tenu du degré d'incertitude de l'économie. Il tire la règle optimale d'un modèle simple à horizon infini du mécanisme de transmission monétaire, où l'incertitude intervient sous une forme additive. Il examine comment cette règle doit être modifiée quand il y a incertitude au sujet des paramètres, des retards et de la nature des chocs et procède ensuite à des évaluations quantitatives de la nouvelle règle. L'auteur montre en particulier que, si le degré de persistance de l'inflation dans la courbe de Phillips n'est pas élevé, une règle simple telle que la règle initiale de Taylor — où la politique monétaire contrecarre l'effet des chocs de demande mais réagit relativement peu aux chocs d'inflation — pourrait servir de modèle de référence pour la conduite de cette politique. À l'inverse, il pourrait être difficile de trouver une règle à la Taylor pouvant jouer ce rôle si l'inflation est très persistante.

description: Antiferromagnets are outstanding candidates for the next generation of spintronic applications, with great potential for downscaling and decreasing power consumption. Recently, the manipulation of bulk properties of antiferromagnets has been realized by several different approaches. However, the interfacial spin order of antiferromagnets is an important integral part of spintronic devices, thus the successful control of interfacial antiferromagnetic spins is urgently desired. Here, we report the high controllability of interfacial spins in antiferromagnetic / ferromagnetic / heavy metal heterostructure devices using spin-orbit torque (SOT) assisted by perpendicular or longitudinal magnetic fields. Switching of the interfacial spins from one to another direction through multiple intermediate states is demonstrated. The field-free SOT-induced switching of antiferromagnetic interfacial spins is also observed, which we attribute to the effective built-in out-of-plane field due to unequal upward and downward interfacial spin populations. Our work provides a precise way to modulate the interfacial spins at an antiferromagnet / ferromagnet interface via SOT, which will greatly promote innovative designs for next generation spintronic devices.

description: Recently some two-dimensional models with double symmetric absorbing states were shown to share the same critical behaviour that was called the voter universality class. We show, that for an absorbing-states Potts model with finite but further than nearest neighbour range of interactions the critical point is splitted into two critical points: one of the Ising type, and the other of the directed percolation universality class. Similar splitting takes place in the three-dimensional nearest-neighbour model.

description: For many stochastic models of interest in systems biology, such as those describing biochemical reaction networks, exact quantification of parameter uncertainty through statistical inference is intractable. Likelihood-free computational inference techniques enable parameter inference when the likelihood function for the model is intractable but the generation of many sample paths is feasible through stochastic simulation of the forward problem. The most common likelihood-free method in systems biology is approximate Bayesian computation that accepts parameters that result in low discrepancy between stochastic simulations and measured data. However, it can be difficult to assess how the accuracy of the resulting inferences are affected by the choice of acceptance threshold and discrepancy function. The pseudo-marginal approach is an alternative likelihood-free inference method that utilises a Monte Carlo estimate of the likelihood function. This approach has several advantages, particularly in the context of noisy, partially observed, time-course data typical in biochemical reaction network studies. Specifically, the pseudo-marginal approach facilitates exact inference and uncertainty quantification, and may be efficiently combined with particle filters for low variance, high-accuracy likelihood estimation. In this review, we provide a practical introduction to the pseudo-marginal approach using inference for biochemical reaction networks as a series of case studies. Implementations of key algorithms and examples are provided using the Julia programming language; a high performance, open source programming language for scientific computing.

description: We propose a theoretical approach to describe quantitatively the heating process in aqueous solutions of dispersed TiN nanoparticles under solar illumination. The temperature gradients of solution with different concentrations of TiN nanoparticles are calculated when confinement effects of the container on the solar absorption are taken into account. We find that the average penetration of solar radiation into the solution is significantly reduced with increasing the nanoparticle concentration. At high concentrations, our numerical results show that photons are localized near the surface of the solution. Moreover, the heat energy balance equation at the vapor-liquid interface is used to describe the solar steam generation. The theoretical time dependence of temperature rise and vaporization weight losses is consistent with experiments. Our calculations give strong evidence that the substantially localized heating near the vapor-liquid interface is the main reason for the more efficient steam generation process by floating plasmonic membranes when compared to randomly dispersed nanoparticles. The validated theoretical model suggests that our approach can be applied towards new predictions and other experimental data descriptions.

title: Explaining and Forecasting Inflation in Emerging Markets: The Case of Mexico
Creators: name: Bailliu, Jeannine

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2003

description: The authors apply existing inflation models that have worked well in industrialized countries to Mexico, an emerging market that has recently moved to adopt an inflation-targeting framework for monetary policy. They compare the performance of these models with a mark-up model that has been used extensively to analyze inflation in Mexico. The authors focus on three models that have some theoretical foundations and that can therefore help explain the causes of inflation as well as be used for forecasting purposes: a mark-up model, a money-gap model, and a Phillips curve. The authors' empirical results suggest that the evolution of the exchange rate remains a very important factor for forecasting inflation in Mexico. Indeed, in the best-performing model, the mark-up model, the exchange rate plays the most significant role. The Phillips curve explains and forecasts inflation well when using actual values for the explanatory variables, but does not perform well when using forecasted values for the explanatory variables. The money-gap model does not appear to be useful in its current form, because it is unable to beat even a simple AR1.
description: Les auteurs ont recours à des modèles d'inflation qui se prêtent bien à l'étude des économies industrialisées pour examiner le cas d'un pays à marché émergent, le Mexique, qui a récemment axé sa politique monétaire sur la poursuite d'une cible d'inflation. Ils comparent l'efficacité de ces modèles à celle d'un modèle souvent utilisé pour l'analyse de l'inflatio n au Mexique : le modèle dit de « mark-up », dans lequel le niveau des prix s'obtient par addition d'une marge préétablie aux coûts. Ils s'intéressent surtout à trois modèles qui ont des fondements théoriques et qui peuvent donc aider à élucider les causes de l'inflation, mais qui peuvent aussi servir à la prévision : un modèle de mark-up, un modèle fondé sur le déséquilibre monétaire et une courbe de Phillips. Les résultats empiriques des auteurs donnent à penser que l'évolution du taux de change est un facteur déterminant dans la prévision de l'inflation au Mexique. De fait, le modèle produisant les meilleurs résultats, à savoir le modèle de mark- up, est celui où le taux de change joue le rôle le plus important. Le modèle reposant sur la courbe de Phillips permet d'expliquer et de prévoir relativement bien le cours de l'inflation, à condition d'employer les valeurs observées comme variables explicatives; il ne fournit pas de bonnes prévisions si l'on utilise à leur place les valeurs prévues. Le modèle basé sur le déséquilibre monétaire n'est pas très utile dans sa forme actuelle, puisqu'il n'est pas plus efficace qu'un simple processus autorégressif d'ordre 1.

title: Technological Change and the Education Premium in Canada: Sectoral Evidence
Creators: name: Farès, Jean
name: Yuen, Terence
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2003

description: It has been well documented that the education premium measured by the wage difference between university and high school graduates has remained constant over the past two decades in Canada. Despite this stable pattern at the aggregate level, skill-biased technology could have important implications for the inter-industry wage structure. In a multi-sector economy where technological innovations are skewed towards certain industries, imperfect labour mobility implies a positive relationship between the education premium and the technological change in industry. Using data from the Survey of Consumer Finance and the Labour Force Survey, the authors obtain empirical results that would appear to confirm this link: university graduates in research and development-intensive industries are better paid. Yet, this positive correlation is largely due to the fact that high-tech industries attract more professionals who are more educated than the average university graduate.
description: De nombreuses études ont montré que la prime à l'éducation, soit la différence de salaire entre les diplômés du niveau universitaire et ceux du niveau secondaire, est demeurée constante au Canada au cours des deux dernières décennies. Malgré la stabilité de cette prime à l'échelle globale, les changements technologiques qui favorisent le recours à une main-d'oeuvre qualifiée pourraient avoir d'importantes répercussions sur la structure intersectorielle des salaires. Dans une économie multisectorielle où les innovations techniques ont tendance à être concentrées dans certaines branches d'activité, une mobilité imparfaite de la main-d'oeuvre implique une relation positive entre la prime à l'éducation et l'évolution technologique d'un secteur. Les résultats empiriques que les auteurs obtiennent à partir des données de l'Enquête sur les finances des consommateurs et de l'Enquête sur la population active semblent confirmer que les diplômés universitaires travaillant dans les branches à forte intensité de recherche et développement sont mieux rémunérés. Cependant, cette corrélation positive tient en grande partie au fait que les industries de pointe attir ent davantage de professionnels ayant une formation plus poussée que la moyenne des diplômés universitaires.
The PDS vs. Markarian starburst galaxies: comparing strong and weak IRAS emitter at 12$μ$m and 25$μ$m in the nearby universe

description: (Abridged) The characteristics of the starburst galaxies from the Pico dos Dias survey (PDS) are compared with those of the nearby UV-bright Markarian starburst galaxies, having the same limit in redshift ($v_h < 7500$ km s$^{-1}$) and absolute $B$ magnitude ($M_B < -18$). An important difference is found: the Markarian galaxies are generally undetected at 12$μ$m and 25$μ$m in \textit{IRAS}. This is consistent with the UV excess shown by these galaxies and suggests that the youngest star forming regions dominating these galaxies are relatively free of dust. The FIR selection criteria for the PDS is shown to introduce a strong bias towards massive (luminous) and large size late-type spiral galaxies. This is contrary to the Markarian galaxies, which are found to be remarkably rich in smaller size early-type galaxies. These results suggest that only late-type spirals with a large and massive disk are strong emitter at 12$μ$m and 25$μ$m in \textit{IRAS} in the nearby universe.

description: This paper presents the main challenges confronted during the construction of the innovative Crystal Houses façade in Amsterdam. Designed by MVRDV and Gietermans & Van Dijk architectural offices, the façade is a transparent reproduction of the previous 19th century masonry elevation, entirely made of adhesively bonded solid glass bricks. Even the window and door frames are reinterpreted by elaborated massive cast glass components. To obtain pure transparency, the resulting 10 m by 12 m glass masonry wall should be self-supporting. To achieve the desired structural performance of the wall a colourless UV-curing adhesive of high stiffness is selected which reaches its optimum bond strength when applied in 0.3mm thick layer. The virtually zero thickness of the adhesive and the desire of untainted transparency induced various engineering challenges, from the adhesive’s homogeneous application and the dimensional accuracy of the bricks to the allowable tolerances in the entire façade. This paper records the challenges encountered and follows the innovations made from the manufacturing of the bricks to the final construction of the façade. The novel solutions include the manufacturing of glass elements of extreme dimensional precision, the development of methods for the accurate measuring and systematic levelling of the façade and the development of customized bonding techniques that lead to purely transparent and flawless connections. Based on the conclusions of the research and experience gained from the realization of the project, suggestions are made on the optimization of the developed system for its further applicability.

Year: 2003

description: The authors estimate and solve a small structural model for the euro area over the 1983–2000 period. Given the assumption of rational expectations, the model implies a set of orthogonality conditions that provide the basis for estimating the model's parameter by generalized method of moments. The authors' main results are: (i) the impulse-response functions implied by the model are consistent with the standard stylized facts about the dynamic effects of monetary policy, (ii) evidence suggests that flexibility in Europe has increased since the adoption of the Maastricht Treaty, and (iii) the inflation expectations captured by the model might explain the European Central Bank's reluctance to ease monetary conditions in 2000.
description: Les auteurs estiment et résolvent un petit modèle structurel applicable à la zone euro pour la période comprise entre 1983 et 2000. Partant de l'hypothèse d'attentes rationnelles, le modèle impose un ensemble de conditions d'orthogonalité qui permettent d'en estimer les paramètres à l'aide de la méthode des moments généralisés. Les auteurs en concluent essentiellement que i) les profils de réaction générés par le modèle cadrent avec les faits stylisés relatifs aux effets dynamiques de la politique monétaire; ii) la flexibilité semble s'être accentuée en Europe depuis l'entrée en vigueur du Traité de Maastricht; iii) les attentes d'inflation représentées dans le modèle peuvent expliquer l'hésitation de la Banque centrale européenne à assouplir les conditions monétaires en 2000.

description: Inspired by the glass masonry technique developed by the TU Delft Glass and Transparency Lab for the Crystal House in Amsterdam, a 14 meter span pedestrian bridge is envisioned, also consisting of cast glass elements. In contrast to the Crystal House project that employs an adhesively bonded glass block system, here dry assembly of the glass elements is proposed to allow for a demountable structure. To achieve this, a constant compression force is introduced in the bridge through its arch-shape. This compression force and a special interlocking geometry of the blocks will ensure the stability of the structure, like a medieval stone arch. The paper will discuss the exploratory design and engineering leading up to the construction of the first 3 meter span mock-up. This includes studies on the visual appearance of the bridge, studies on the glass block geometry, calculations on stresses in the glass elements, experiments on force transfer through dry-connected elements and mould design for casting of the complex geometries of the glass elements.

description: We show that the dispersive force between a spherical nanoparticle (with a radius $\le$ 100 nm) and a substrate is enhanced by several orders of magnitude when the sphere is near to the substrate. We calculate exactly the dispersive force in the non-retarded limit by incorporating the contributions to the interaction from of all the multipolar electromagnetic modes. We show that as the sphere approaches the substrate, the fluctuations of the electromagnetic field, induced by the vacuum and the presence of the substrate, the dispersive force is enhanced by orders of magnitude. We discuss this effect as a function of the size of the sphere.

New Possibilities of Sun and Glare Protection with a Structured Switchable Glazing

Publisher: name: Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings

description: Glazing units used for architectural applications have an enormous potential for optimization. Currently, daylight management as well as solar and shading control can be provided only through a combination of various individual elements, such as glass panes, venetian blinds and additional glare protection elements. This combination of several separate elements not only leads to a higher consumption of resources, as well as higher production costs. It also entails additional maintenance costs. In order to overcome these shortcomings, the authors have developed a switchable glazing unit with adjustable light and energy transmission properties. This unit uses an anisotropic liquid. The functional component consists of a liquid crystal layer enclosed between two coated glass substrates, thus it is an integral part of the glazing unit. Due to the structure of the conductive layer, it is possible to subdivide the glazing unit into small areas (so-called pixels) that can be switched individually. The transparency of each pixel can be controlled independently. The glazing unit itself can be used as an effective daylight and shading control. This integral approach opens the door for new architectural applications. The authors currently focus their research on the development and tests for control strategies of the switching process itself. These control strategies are numerically validated and then tested at the ILEK façade test facility. The paper presents the first results of a performance analysis based on numerical simulations.

description: Incorporating second order curvature information in gradient based methods have shown to improve convergence drastically despite its computational intensity. In this paper, we propose a stochastic (online) quasi-Newton method with Nesterov's accelerated gradient in both its full and limited memory forms for solving large scale non-convex optimization problems in neural networks. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated in Tensorflow on benchmark classification and regression problems. The results show improved performance compared to the classical second order oBFGS and oLBFGS methods and popular first order stochastic methods such as SGD and Adam. The performance with different momentum rates and batch sizes have also been illustrated.

description: The evaluation of adaptive facades presents a challenge because there is no established evaluation strategy to systematically reach this goal and many of the available façade performance evaluation tools have limited applicability for such advanced building facades. This paper presents a case study for an adaptive glass façade and evaluates its performance. The evaluation focuses mainly on pre and post construction phase of adaptive facades: The design assist phase (including the durability test, visual mockup, onsite panel mounting and weather stripping), the commissioning phase (field verification and performance testing) and the monitoring phase. The selected project is a nearly zero energy building with unique façade comprising thermal isolated glass sunshades printed with white silk screen. These louvers respond dynamically and automatically to the angle of the sun which improves the control over energy consumption, solar radiation and glare with the ability to admit natural light into the building. The paper is part of the research activities of working group 3 of the European COST Action 1403 on “Adaptive Facades “. Different methods were used for evaluation, this include: interviews with the architect, façade engineer and technical control specialist, reviews of standard and codes and a systematic process mapping. A documentation of the case study describing the post construction occupant comfort and façade operation was prepared. This paper’s audience is mainly architects, building façade engineers together with facility managers concerned with the process of design, construction and operation of adaptive glass facades. The outcome of this study identifies effective strategies for the design and performance evaluation of optimal adaptive facades.

description: In this paper we put forward the idea that the comoving Hubble horizon undergoes multiple stages of contraction (a.k.a. inflationary phase) and expansion. The observable inflation, that produces the CMB anisotropies and generates primordial gravitational waves, follows and is followed by multiple early and late inflations. The trans-Planckian censorship conjecture restricts the duration of each inflationary phases and determines their Hubble rates. Early inflations could start immediately after the universe emerges from the Planck era. It alleviates the initial condition problem for the lower-scale observable inflation. Late inflations collectively assist the observable inflation to accommodate the present horizon. Moreover, it makes eternal inflation possible and consistent with obserbvations.

description: We report Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) measurements on the vortex lattice in a PbIn polycrystal in the presence of an applied current. Using the rocking curves as a probe of the distribution of current in the sample, we observe that vortex pinning is due to the surface roughness. This leads to a surface current that persists in the flux flow region. We show the influence of surface treatments on the distribution of this current.

description: The fabrication of projects with complex geometries often implies a significant waste of material, since custom molds need to be created and irregular shapes need to be cut out of larger sized elements. For low curvatures, cold elastic bending processes can be applied. However, elastic bending techniques have mainly been utilized to create simple curvature panels for architectural projects. This paper explores computational simulation in relation to a digitally controlled fabrication method of bending rectangular glass sheets elastically into irregular double curvature. This is done through exploratory prototyping within the framework of a Master of Science course on digital production, and additional computational modeling and FE-analysis. We used algorithmic real-time simulation to approximate the bending process of cold-bent glass and elaborated on details of the simulation process and possible surface types and curvatures. Our empirical tests on simply curved, ruled and doubly curved surface types used float glass as well as heat-treated glass. A detailing system was developed to clamp the glass panels into position. We evaluated the results of the computational simulation (Rhino with plug-ins) as well as FE-Analysis (Strand 7) and compared the resulting geometries to the measurements of the physical prototypes. In order to demonstrate the system’s capacities on a larger multi-panel geometry, we constructed a 5m x 4m prototype of a doubly-curved glass surface.

Maximizing the Twist of Cold Formed Glazing

Publisher: name: Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings

description: Enclos is conducting ongoing research into cold formed (elastically deformed) glazing. This paper expands on previous finite element modeling and physical testing undertaken. The research aims to develop an understanding of surface buckling of perimeter-supported, monolithic glass that has been elastically deformed in torsion. By extension of previous research, strategies are found to maximize the achievable twist of the glass as limited by strength or stability. This paper includes a detailed investigation of these strategies, incorporating results from finite element models and data from physical testing. The magnitude of twist achieved by elastic deformation of flat glass can be maximized primarily by reducing the short dimension of glass while also reducing the thickness. The thickness of the glass plays a secondary role in optimizing the magnitude of twist achievable. If the lite is too thin, buckling will govern. If it is too thick, stresses due to the elastic deformation during the cold forming process will govern. A set of plots based on the research also helps convey the relationship between thickness, short dimension, aspect ratio, and achievable twist magnitude.

Laser Tracking Metrology: An Integrated Fabrication Process for Geometrically Complex Facade Systems

Publisher: name: Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings

description: The geometric complexity resulting from the architectural pursuit of freeform structures is presenting challenges to the construction industry. Curtain wall unit system designs, for example, have morphed in some cases from predominantly flat orthogonal affairs to complex double-curvature multi-layer constructs. Many fabrication tools and processes, however, are only gradually shifting from their linear 2D roots to embrace a truly 3D fabrication environment. The validation and quality assurance of geometrically complex components is problematic in such an environment, potentially compromising both dimensional accuracy and throughput. Three projects are discussed where laser metrology was adopted as a means to facilitate the dimensional measurement of geometrically complex components. For example, one is a high-profile architectural application, a residential building in New York City. The project includes an expansive double-curved surface designed and constructed as a prefabricated unitized system, with opaque units built up from multiple layers of metal panels, insulation, and structural framing. Laser tracking metrology was adopted during the course of project fabrication resulting in accelerating production rates from four to thirty units/week. In addition, drawing requirements were reduced from as many as twelve to zero drawings per unit. Applications, processes, techniques, and findings resulting from the integration of laser tracking metrology in the fabrication process are presented for all three projects.

Current induced distortion of a magnetic domain wall

description: We consider the spin torque induced by a current flowing ballistically through a magnetic domain wall. In addition to a global pressure in the direction of the electronic flow, the torque has an internal structure of comparable magnitude due to the precession of the electrons' spins at the "Larmor" frequency. As a result, the profile of the domain wall is expected to get distorted by the current and acquires a periodic sur-structure.

description: The behavior of fluorine with metallicity has not yet been probed in any stellar population. In this work, we present the first fluorine abundances measured outside of the Milky Way from a sample of red giants in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), as well the Galactic globular cluster Omega Centauri. The fluorine abundances are derived from vibration-rotation transitions of HF using infrared spectra obtained with the Phoenix spectrograph on the Gemini South 8.1m telescope. It is found that the abundance ratio of F/O declines as the oxygen abundance decreases. The values of F/O are especially low in the two Omega Cen giants; this very low value of F/O probably indicates that 19F synthesis in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars is not the dominant source of fluorine in stellar populations. The observed decline in F/O with lower O abundances is in qualitative agreement with what is expected if 19F is produced via H- and He-burning sequences in very massive stars, with this fluorine then ejected in high mass-loss rate Wolf-Rayet winds. A quantitative comparison of observations with this process awaits results from more detailed chemical evolution models incorporating the yields from Wolf-Rayet winds. Perhaps of more significance is the quantitative agreement between the Galactic and LMC results with predictions from models in which 19F is produced from neutrino nucleosynthesis during core collpase in supernovae of Type II. The very low values of F/O in Omega Cen are also in agreement with neutrino nucleosynthesis models if the ``peculiar'' star formation history of Omega Cen, with 2-4 distinct episodes of star formation, is considered.
