description: We apply the recently developed dual fermion algorithm for disordered interacting systems to the Anderson-Hubbard model. This algorithm is compared with dynamical cluster approximation calculations for a one-dimensional system to establish the quality of the approximation in comparison with an established cluster method. We continue with a three-dimensional (3d) system and look at the antiferromagnetic, Mott and Anderson localization transitions. The dual fermion approach leads to quantitative as well as qualitative improvement of the dynamical mean-field results and it allows one to calculate the hysteresis in the double occupancy in 3d taking into account nonlocal correlations.

description: We experimentally demonstrate that a squeezed probe optical field can improve the sensitivity of the magnetic field measurements based on nonlinear magneto-optical rotation (NMOR) with an amplitude-modulated pump when compared to a coherent probe field under identical conditions. To realize an all-atomic magnetometer prototype, we utilize a nonlinear atomic interaction, known as polarization self-rotation(PSR), to produce a squeezed probe field. An independent pump field, amplitude-modulated at the Larmor frequency of the bias magnetic field, allows us to extend the range of most sensitive NMOR measurements to sub-Gauss magnetic fields. While the overall sensitivity of the magnetometer is rather low ($>250\mathrm{pT}/\sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}$, we clearly observe a $15\%$ sensitivity improvement when the squeezed probe is used. Our observations confirm the recently reported quantum enhancement in a modulated atomic magnetometer arXiv:2108.01519 [quant-ph].
Measurement of inclusive and differential cross sections for single top quark production in association with a W boson in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

description: Measurements of the inclusive and normalised differential cross sections are presented for the production of single top quarks in association with a W boson in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data used were recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC during 2016-2018, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. Events containing one electron and one muon in the final state are analysed. For the inclusive measurement, a multivariate discriminant, exploiting the kinematic properties of the events is used to separate the signal from the dominant $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ background. A cross section of 79.2 $\pm$ 0.9 (stat) $^{+7.7}_{-8.0}$ (syst) $\pm$ 1.2 (lumi) pb is obtained, consistent with the predictions of the standard model. For the differential measurements, a fiducial region is defined according to the detector acceptance, and the requirement of exactly one jet coming from the fragmentation of a bottom quark. The resulting distributions are unfolded to particle level and agree with the predictions at next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics.

Search for $CP$ violation in ttH and tH production in multilepton channels in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: The charge-parity ($CP$) structure of the Yukawa interaction between the Higgs (H) boson and the top quark is measured in a data sample enriched in the $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ and tH associated production, using 138 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The study targets events where the H boson decays via H $\to$ WW or H $\to$ $ττ$ and the top quarks decay via t $\to$ Wb: the W bosons decay either leptonically or hadronically, and final states characterized by the presence of at least two leptons are studied. Machine learning techniques are applied to these final states to enhance the separation of $CP$-even from $CP$-odd scenarios. Two-dimensional confidence regions are set on $κ_\mathrm{t}$ and $\tildeκ_\mathrm{t}$, which are respectively defined as the $CP$-even and $CP$-odd top-Higgs Yukawa coupling modifiers. No significant fractional $CP$-odd contributions, parameterized by the quantity $\lvert{f_{CP}^{\mathrm{Htt}}}\rvert$ are observed; the parameter is determined to be $\lvert{f_{CP}^{\mathrm{Htt}}}\rvert$ = 0.59 with an interval of (0.24, 0.81) at 68% confidence level. The results are combined with previous results covering the H $\to$ ZZ and H $\to$ $γγ$ decay modes, yielding two- and one-dimensional confidence regions on $κ_\mathrm{t}$ and $\tildeκ_\mathrm{t}$, while $\lvert{f_{CP}^{\mathrm{Htt}}}\rvert$ is determined to be $\lvert{f_{CP}^{\mathrm{Htt}}}\rvert$ = 0.28 with an interval of $\lvert{f_{CP}^{\mathrm{Htt}}}\rvert$ $\lt$ 0.55 at 68% confidence level, in agreement with the standard model $CP$-even prediction of $\lvert{f_{CP}^{\mathrm{Htt}}}\rvert$ = 0.

description: Perspective distortions and crowd variations make crowd counting a challenging task in computer vision. To tackle it, many previous works have used multi-scale architecture in deep neural networks (DNNs). Multi-scale branches can be either directly merged (e.g. by concatenation) or merged through the guidance of proxies (e.g. attentions) in the DNNs. Despite their prevalence, these combination methods are not sophisticated enough to deal with the per-pixel performance discrepancy over multi-scale density maps. In this work, we redesign the multi-scale neural network by introducing a hierarchical mixture of density experts, which hierarchically merges multi-scale density maps for crowd counting. Within the hierarchical structure, an expert competition and collaboration scheme is presented to encourage contributions from all scales; pixel-wise soft gating nets are introduced to provide pixel-wise soft weights for scale combinations in different hierarchies. The network is optimized using both the crowd density map and the local counting map, where the latter is obtained by local integration on the former. Optimizing both can be problematic because of their potential conflicts. We introduce a new relative local counting loss based on relative count differences among hard-predicted local regions in an image, which proves to be complementary to the conventional absolute error loss on the density map. Experiments show that our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance on five public datasets, i.e. ShanghaiTech, UCF_CC_50, JHU-CROWD++, NWPU-Crowd and Trancos.

description: We study the role of anisotropic steric interactions in a system of hard Brownian needles. Despite having no volume, non-overlapping needles exclude a volume in configuration space that influences the macroscopic evolution of the system. Starting from the stochastic particle system, we use the method of matched asymptotic expansions and conformal mapping to systematically derive a nonlinear nonlocal partial differential equation for the evolution of the population density in position and orientation. We consider the regime of high rotational diffusion, resulting in an equation for the spatial density that allows us to compare the effective excluded volume of a hard-needles system with that of a hard-spheres system. We further consider spatially homogeneous solutions and find an isotropic to nematic transition as density increases, consistent with Onsager's theory.

description: Background: Before being used to inform patient care, a risk prediction model needs to be validated in a representative sample from the target population. The finite size of the validation sample entails that there is uncertainty with respect to estimates of model performance. We apply value-of-information methodology as a framework to quantify the consequence of such uncertainty in terms of NB. Methods: We define the Expected Value of Perfect Information (EVPI) for model validation as the expected loss in NB due to not confidently knowing which of the alternative decisions confers the highest NB at a given risk threshold. We propose methods for EVPI calculations based on Bayesian or ordinary bootstrapping of NBs, as well as an asymptotic approach supported by the central limit theorem. We conducted brief simulation studies to compare the performance of these methods, and used subsets of data from an international clinical trial for predicting mortality after myocardial infarction as a case study. Results: The three computation methods generated similar EVPI values in simulation studies. In the case study, at the pre-specified threshold of 0.02, the best decision with current information would be to use the model, with an expected incremental NB of 0.0020 over treating all. At this threshold, EVPI was 0.0005 (a relative EVPI of 25%). When scaled to the annual number of heart attacks in the US, this corresponds to a loss of 400 true positives, or extra 19,600 false positives (unnecessary treatments) per year, indicating the value of further model validation. As expected, the validation EVPI generally declined with larger samples. Conclusion: Value-of-information methods can be applied to the NB calculated during external validation of clinical prediction models to provide a decision-theoretic perspective to the consequences of uncertainty.

Deep Learning Closure Models for Large-Eddy Simulation of Flows around Bluff Bodies

description: A deep learning (DL) closure model for large-eddy simulation (LES) is developed and evaluated for incompressible flows around a rectangular cylinder at moderate Reynolds numbers. Near-wall flow simulation remains a central challenge in aerodynamic modeling: RANS predictions of separated flows are often inaccurate, while LES can require prohibitively small near-wall mesh sizes. The DL-LES model is trained using adjoint PDE optimization methods to match, as closely as possible, direct numerical simulation (DNS) data. It is then evaluated out-of-sample (i.e., for new aspect ratios and Reynolds numbers not included in the training data) and compared against a standard LES model (the dynamic Smagorinsky model). The DL-LES model outperforms dynamic Smagorinsky and is able to achieve accurate LES predictions on a relatively coarse mesh (downsampled from the DNS grid by a factor of four in each Cartesian direction). We study the accuracy of the DL-LES model for predicting the drag coefficient, mean flow, and Reynolds stress. A crucial challenge is that the LES quantities of interest are the steady-state flow statistics; for example, the time-averaged mean velocity $\bar{u}(x) = \displaystyle \lim_{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{t} \int_0^t u(s,x) ds$. Calculating the steady-state flow statistics therefore requires simulating the DL-LES equations over a large number of flow times through the domain; it is a non-trivial question whether an unsteady partial differential equation model whose functional form is defined by a deep neural network can remain stable and accurate on $t \in [0, \infty)$. Our results demonstrate that the DL-LES model is accurate and stable over large physical time spans, enabling the estimation of the steady-state statistics for the velocity, fluctuations, and drag coefficient of turbulent flows around bluff bodies relevant to aerodynamic applications.

An Exactly Solvable Toy Model of Autocatalysis: Irreversible Relaxation after a Quantum Quench

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A fully resolvable quantum many-body Hamiltonian is introduced that mimics the behavior of the autocatalytic chemical reaction A+B <-> 2B involving two different molecular species, A and B. The model also describes two nonlinearly-coupled modes of an optical cavity. Consistent with the current understanding of the relaxation dynamics of integrable systems in isolation, the wavefunction following a quantum quench exhibits irreversibility with retention of the memory about its initial conditions. Salient features of the model include a marked similarity with conventional quantum decay and a total B-to-A conversion, with associated classical-like behavior of the wavefunction, when the initial state does not contain A-type molecules.
The X-ray spectral evolution of the ultraluminous X-ray source Holmberg IX X-1

description: We present a new analysis of X-ray spectra of the archetypal ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) Holmberg IX X-1 obtained by the Swift, XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observatories. This ULX is a persistent source, with a typical luminosity of ~10^40 erg s^-1, that varied by a factor of 4 - 5 over eight years. We find that its spectra tend to evolve from relatively flat or two-component spectra in the medium energy band (1-6 keV), at lower luminosities, to a spectrum that is distinctly curved and disc-like at the highest luminosities, with the peak energy in the curved spectrum tending to decrease with increased luminosity. We argue that the spectral evolution of the ULX can be explained by super-Eddington accretion models, where in this case we view the ULX down the evacuated funnel along its rotation axis, bounded by its massive radiatively driven wind. The spectral changes then originate in enhanced geometric beaming as the accretion rate increases and wind funnel narrows, causing the scattered flux from the central regions of the supercritical flow to brighten faster than the isotropic thermal emission from the wind, and so the curved hard spectral component to dominate at the highest luminosities. The wind also Compton down-scatters photons at the edge of the funnel, resulting in the peak energy of the spectrum decreasing. We also confirm that Holmberg IX X-1 displays spectral degeneracy with luminosity, and suggest that the observed differences are naturally explained by precession of the black hole rotation axis for the suggested wind geometry.

description: Particle momentum distributions originating from a quark-gluon plasma as produced in high-energy nuclear collisions can be influenced by thermal fluctuations in fluid dynamic fields. We study this effect by generalizing the commonly used kinetic freeze-out prescription by allowing for small fluctuations around an average in fluid velocity, chemical potentials and temperature. This leads to the appearance of specific two-body momentum correlations. Combining a blast-wave parametrization of the kinetic freeze-out surface with the thermal correlation functions of an ideal resonance gas, we perform an exploratory study of angular net-charge correlations induced by thermal fluctuations around vanishing chemical potential. We note a diffusion of the near-side peak around $Δy=Δϕ=0$ induced by variances of different chemical potentials, which could be investigated experimentally.

description: Recently, based on elementary geometry, Gutman proposed several geometry-based invariants (i.e., $SO$, $SO_{1}$, $SO_{2}$, $SO_{3}$, $SO_{4}$, $SO_{5}$, $SO_{6}$). The Sombor index was defined as $SO(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{d_{u}^{2}+d_{v}^{2}}$, the first Sombor index was defined as $SO_{1}(G)= \frac{1}{2}\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}|d_{u}^{2}-d_{v}^{2}|$, where $d_{u}$ denotes the degree of vertex $u$. In this paper, we consider the mathematical and chemistry properties of these geometry-based invariants. We determine the maximum trees (resp. unicyclic graphs) with given diameter, the maximum trees with given matching number, the maximum trees with given pendent vertices, the maximum trees (resp. minimum trees) with given branching number, the minimum trees with given maximum degree and second maximum degree, the minimum unicyclic graphs with given maximum degree and girth, the minimum connected graphs with given maximum degree and pendent vertices, and some properties of maximum connected graphs with given pendent vertices with respect to the first Sombor index $SO_{1}$. As an application, we inaugurate these geometry-based invariants and verify their chemical applicability. We used these geometry-based invariants to model the acentric factor (resp. entropy, enthalpy of vaporization, etc.) of alkanes, and obtained satisfactory predictive potential, which indicates that these geometry-based invariants can be successfully used to model the thermodynamic properties of compounds.

description: The notion of a Manin triple of Lie algebras admits a generalization, to dg Lie algebras, in which various properties are required to hold only up to homotopy. This paper introduces two classes of examples of such homotopy Manin triples. These examples are associated to analogs in complex dimension two of, respectively, the punctured formal 1-disc, and the complex plane with multiple punctures. The dg Lie algebras which appear include certain higher current algebras in the sense of Faonte, Hennion and Kapranov arXiv:1701.01368. We work in a ringed space we call rectilinear space, and one of the tools we introduce is a model of the derived sections of its structure sheaf, whose construction is in the spirit of the adelic complexes for schemes due to Parshin and Beilinson.

description: We develop a gradient-like algorithm to minimize a sum of peer objective functions based on coordination through a peer interconnection network. The coordination admits two stages: the first is to constitute a gradient, possibly with errors, for updating locally replicated decision variables at each peer and the second is used for error-free averaging for synchronizing local replicas. Unlike many related algorithms, the errors permitted in our algorithm can cover a wide range of inexactnesses, as long as they are bounded. Moreover, we do not impose any gradient boundedness conditions for the objective functions. Furthermore, the second stage is not conducted in a periodic manner, like many related algorithms. Instead, a locally verifiable criterion is devised to dynamically trigger the peer-to-peer coordination at the second stage, so that expensive communication overhead for error-free averaging can significantly be reduced. Finally, the convergence of the algorithm is established under mild conditions.

description: Recent data from the James Webb Space Telescope allow a first glimpse of galaxies at $z \gtrsim 11$. The most successful tool for identifying ultra-high-redshift candidates and inferring their properties is photometric template fitting. However, current methods rely on templates derived from much lower-redshift conditions, including stellar populations older than the age of the Universe at $z > 12$, a stellar initial mass function which is physically disallowed at $z > 6$, and weaker emission lines than currently observed at $z > 7.5$. Here, two sets of synthetic templates, optimized for the expected astrophysics of galaxies at $8 < z < 12$ and $z > 12$, are developed and used to fit three galaxies at $z > 12$ from the SMACS0723 field. Using these improved templates, quantitative estimates are produced of the bias in inferred properties from JWST observations at $z>8$ due to these effects. The best-fit redshifts are similar to those found with previous template sets, but the inferred stellar masses drop by as much as 1--1.6 dex, so that stellar masses are no longer seemingly inconsistent with $Λ$CDM. The two new template sets are released in formats compatible with EAZY and LePhare.

description: We demonstrate that superconductors with broken inversion symmetry support a family of stable, spatially localized configurations of the self-knotted magnetic field. These solutions, that we term ``toroflux,'' are the superconducting counterparts of the Chandrasekhar-Kendall states (spheromaks) that appear in highly conducting, force-free astrophysical and nuclear-fusion plasmas. The superconducting torofluxes are solutions of superconducting models, in the presence of a parity-breaking Lifshitz invariant associated with the $O$ point-group symmetry. These solutions are characterized by a non-vanishing helicity of the magnetic field, and also by a toroidal dipole moment of the magnetic field. We demonstrate that a magnetic dipole or a ferromagnetic inclusion in the bulk of a noncentrosymmetric superconductor sources finite-energy toroflux solutions.

description: The appearance and disappearance of shells and subshells are determined using a previously introduced method of structural analysis. This work extends the approach and applies it to protons, in addition to neutrons, in an attempt to provide a more complete understanding of shell structure in nuclei. Experimental observables including the mean-square charge radius, as well as other spectroscopic and mass related quantities are analyzed for extrema. This analysis also uses differential observables among adjacent even-even nuclei to serve as the derivatives for these quantities of interest. Local extrema in these quantities indicate shell structure and the lack of local extrema indicate missing shell closures. The shell structure of low-mass nuclei is inconsistent likely as a consequence of the single-particle structure. Additionally, multiple shell features occurring in midshell regions are determined by combining information from two or more observables. Our results near stability complement previous observations further out.

description: We derive a novel lattice Boltzmann scheme, which uses a pressure correction forcing term for approximating the volume averaged Navier-Stokes equations (VANSE) in up to three dimensions. With a new definition of the zeroth moment of the Lattice Boltzmann equation, spatially and temporally varying local volume fractions are taken into account. A Chapman-Enskog analysis, respecting the variations in local volume, formally proves the consistency towards the VANSE limit up to higher order terms. The numerical validation of the scheme via steady state and non-stationary examples approves the second order convergence with respect to velocity and pressure. The here proposed lattice Boltzmann method is the first to correctly recover the pressure with second order for space-time varying volume fractions.

description: Simultaneous ground-state cooling of multiple degenerate mechanical modes is a tough issue in optomechanical system due to the existence of the dark mode effect. Here we propose a universal and scalable method to break the dark mode effect of two degenerate mechanical modes by introducing the cross-Kerr (CK) nonlinearity. At most four stable steady states can be achieved in our scheme in the presence of the CK effect, different from the bistable behavior of the standard optomechanical system. Under the constant input laser power, the effective detuning and mechanical resonant frequency can be modulated by the CK nonlinearity, which results in an optimal CK coupling strength for cooling. Similarly, there will be an optimal input laser power for cooling when the CK coupling strength stays fixed. Our scheme can be extended to break the dark mode effect of multiple degenerate mechanical modes by introducing more than one CK effects. To fulfill the requirement of the simultaneous ground-state cooling of N multiple degenerate mechanical modes N-1 CK effects with different strengths are needed. Our proposal provides new insights in dark mode control and might pave the way to manipulating of multiple quantum states in macroscopic system.
