description: The discovery of GeV gamma-rays from classical novae indicates that shocks and relativistic particle acceleration are energetically key in these events. Further evidence for shocks comes from thermal keV X-ray emission and an early peak in the radio light curve on a timescale of months with a brightness temperature which is too high to result from freely expanding photo-ionized gas. Paper I developed a one dimensional model for the thermal emission from nova shocks. This work concluded that the shock-powered radio peak cannot be thermal if line cooling operates in the post-shock gas at the rate determined by collisional ionization equilibrium. Here we extend this calculation to include non-thermal synchrotron emission. Applying our model to three classical novae, we constrain the amplification of the magnetic field $ε_B$ and the efficiency $ε_e$ of accelerating relativistic electrons of characteristic Lorentz factor $γ\sim 100$. If the shocks are radiative (low velocity $v_{\rm sh} \lesssim 1000$ km s$^{-1}$) and cover a large solid angle of the nova outflow, as likely characterize those producing gamma-rays, then values of $ε_e \sim 0.01-0.1$ are required to achieve the peak radio brightness for $ε_B = 10^{-2}$. Such high efficiencies exclude secondary pairs from pion decay as the source of the radio-emitting particles, instead favoring the direct acceleration of electrons at the shock. If the radio-emitting shocks are instead adiabatic (high velocity), as likely characterize those responsible for the thermal X-rays, then much higher brightness temperatures are possible, allowing the radio-emitting shocks to cover a smaller outflow solid angle.

description: Highway impacts on Ozarks incomes and employment during the 1950 's are empirically analyzed by means of rank correlation and stepwise regression. Results indicate that highways were not among the most critical factors in the Ozarks Region's development. If new highways are built, two-lane, paved, State-numbered roads connecting existing Federal routes and also local paved county roads connecting rural areas with urban centers would be more beneficial for economic development than other highway types. Highways with dissimilar qualities are classified into five distinct types, with the number of lanes, type of surface, and network integration used as criteria. Relevant regional economic growth theories are also reviewed.

description: The need for creative engineers using natural sciences as their approach has not drastically changed in the past 100 years. However, technology advances has created new challenges and brought new opportunities, which calls innovation in engineering education. Todays, and even more so tomorrow´s engineers need to be equipped with both technical and soft skills that make them creative, and team player in the complicated, often complex environment industrial and societal challenges. In this study, we examined the outcomes of a workshop that focused on a learning approach called Challenge-driven Education (CDE) in the context of Internet of Things (IoT). The data for the study came from the participant feedback and was analysed using frequency analysis. The results show that teamwork and collaboration, joint discussions and self-improvement were valued.

description: We consider a broadcast channel, in which a multi-antenna transmitter (Alice) sends $K$ confidential information signals to $K$ legitimate users (Bobs) in the presence of $L$ eavesdroppers (Eves). Alice uses MIMO precoding to generate the information signals along with her own (Tx-based) friendly jamming. Interference at each Bob is removed by MIMO zero-forcing. This, however, leaves a "vulnerability region" around each Bob, which can be exploited by a nearby Eve. We address this problem by augmenting Tx-based friendly jamming (TxFJ) with Rx-based friendly jamming (RxFJ), generated by each Bob. Specifically, each Bob uses self-interference suppression (SIS) to transmit a friendly jamming signal while simultaneously receiving an information signal over the same channel. We minimize the powers allocated to the information, TxFJ, and RxFJ signals under given guarantees on the individual secrecy rate for each Bob. The problem is solved for the cases when the eavesdropper's channel state information is known/unknown. Simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed solution. Furthermore, we discuss how to schedule transmissions when the rate requirements need to be satisfied on average rather than instantaneously. Under special cases, a scheduling algorithm that serves only the strongest receivers is shown to outperform the one that schedules all receivers.

Flavor Anomalies, the Diphoton Excess and a Dark Matter Candidate

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We argue that the diphoton excess recently reported by ATLAS and CMS can be explained, along with several anomalies seen in the flavor sector, in models where a Standard-Model singlet scalar resonance with mass $M \approx 750$ GeV is produced in gluon fusion via loops containing a scalar color- triplet leptoquark $ϕ$. For a leptoquark mass $M_ϕ\lesssim$ 1 TeV, the production cross section is naturally in the 10 fb range. A large $S \to γγ$ branching ratio can be obtained by coupling the scalar S to new color-singlet fermions $χ$ with electroweak scale masses, which can be part of an $SU(2)_L$ multiplet, whose neutral component has the right mass and quantum numbers to be a dark matter candidate. Our model reveals a connection between flavor anomalies, the nature of dark matter and a new scalar, which acts as a mediator to the dark sector. The loop-mediated decay $S \to τ^+τ^-$ could be a striking signature of this model.

description: We propose a systematic procedure for the approximation of density functionals in density functional theory that consists of two parts. First, for the efficient approximation of a general density functional, we introduce an efficient ansatz whose non-locality can be increased systematically. Second, we present a fitting strategy that is based on systematically increasing a reasonably chosen set of training densities. We investigate our procedure in the context of strongly correlated fermions on a one-dimensional lattice in which we compute accurate training densities with the help of matrix product states. Focusing on the exchange-correlation energy, we demonstrate how an efficient approximation can be found that includes and systematically improves beyond the local density approximation. Importantly, this systematic improvement is shown for target densities that are quite different from the training densities.

description: H2S is converted under ultrahigh pressure (> 110 GPa) to a metallic phase that becomes superconducting with a record Tc of 200 K. It has been proposed that the superconducting phase is body-centered cubic H3S ( Im3m , a = 3.089 Å) resulting from a decomposition reaction 3H2S --> 2H3S + S. The analogy of H2S and H2O leads us to a very different conclusion. The well-known dissociation of water into H3O+ and OH- increases by orders of magnitude under pressure. An equivalent behavior of H2S is anticipated under pressure with the dissociation, 2H2S --> H3S+ + SH- forming a perovskite structure (SH-)(H3S+), which consists of corner-sharing SH6 octahedra with SH- at each A-site (i.e., the center of each S8 cube). Our DFT calculations show that the perovskite (SH-)(H3S+) is thermodynamically more stable than the Im3m structure of H3S, and suggest that the A-site H atoms are most likely fluxional even at Tc.

description: Recent advances in top-down mass spectrometry enabled identification of intact proteins, but this technology still faces challenges. For example, top-down mass spectrometry suffers from a lack of sensitivity since the ion counts for a single fragmentation event are often low. In contrast, nanopore technology is exquisitely sensitive to single intact molecules, but it has only been successfully applied to DNA sequencing, so far. Here, we explore the potential of sub-nanopores for single-molecule protein identification (SMPI) and describe an algorithm for identification of the electrical current blockade signal (nanospectrum) resulting from the translocation of a denaturated, linearly charged protein through a sub-nanopore. The analysis of identification p-values suggests that the current technology is already sufficient for matching nanospectra against small protein databases, e.g., protein identification in bacterial proteomes.

description: We construct a generic model of Majorana fermionic dark matter (DM). Starting with two Weyl spinor multiplets $η_{1,2}\sim (I,\mp Y)$ coupled to the Standard Model (SM) Higgs, six additional Weyl spinor multiplets with $(I\pm 1/2, \pm(Y\pm 1/2))$ are needed in general. It has 13 parameters in total, five mass parameters and eight Yukawa couplings. The DM sector of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) is a special case of the model with $(I,Y)=(1/2,1/2)$. Therefore, this model can be viewed as an extension of the neutralino DM sector. We consider three typical cases: the neutralino-like, the reduced and the extended cases. For each case, we survey the DM mass $m_χ$ in the range of $(1,2500)$ GeV by random sampling from the model parameter space and study the constraints from the observed DM relic density, the direct search of LUX, XENON100 and PICO experiments, and the indirect search of Fermi-LAT data. We investigate the interplay of these constraints and the differences among these cases. It is found that the direct detection of spin-independent DM scattering off nuclei and the indirect detection of DM annihilation to $W^+W^-$ channel are more sensitive to the DM searches in the near future. The allowed mass for finding $\tilde H$-, $\tilde B$-, $\tilde W$- and non neutralino-like DM particles and the predictions on $\langleσ(χχ\rightarrow ZZ, ZH, t{\bar t}) v\rangle$ in the indirect search are given.

description: We investigate the emergent open dynamics of a quantum system that undergoes rapid repeated unitary interactions with a sequence of ancillary systems. We study in detail how decoherence appears as a subleading effect when a quantum system is 'bombarded' by a quick succession of ancillas. In the most general case, these ancillas are a) taken from an ensemble of quantum systems of different dimensions, b) prepared in different states, and c) interacting with the system through different Hamiltonians. We derive an upper bound on decoherence rates in this regime, and show how a rich variety of phenomena in open dynamics (such as projection, thermalization, purification, and dephasing) can emerge out of our general model of repeated interaction. Furthermore, we show a fundamental link between the strength of the leading order dissipation and the intrinsic "unpredictability" in the system-ancilla interaction. We also discuss how these results encompass and extend results obtained with other earlier models of repeated interaction.

Average annual growth rate in packaging material costs has been over 5 percent since 1958 versus about 4 ½ percent for all food marketing costs. Price increases for packaging materials were relatively steady from 1958 to 1969, averaging about 1 percent annually, but they increased dramatically from 1969 to 1970, some as much as 8 ½ percent. Paper products account for 42 percent of food packaging material costs; metal containers, 22 percent and glass containers 9 percent.

description: In this paper, we aim to design the optimal sensor collaboration strategy for the estimation of time-varying parameters, where collaboration refers to the act of sharing measurements with neighboring sensors prior to transmission to a fusion center. We begin by addressing the sensor collaboration problem for the estimation of uncorrelated parameters. We show that the resulting collaboration problem can be transformed into a special nonconvex optimization problem, where a difference of convex functions carries all the nonconvexity. This specific problem structure enables the use of a convex-concave procedure to obtain a near-optimal solution. When the parameters of interest are temporally correlated, a penalized version of the convex-concave procedure becomes well suited for designing the optimal collaboration scheme. In order to improve computational efficiency, we further propose a fast algorithm that scales gracefully with problem size via the alternating direction method of multipliers. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach and the impact of parameter correlation and temporal dynamics of sensor networks on estimation performance.

description: We propose an algebraic framework for generalized graph Laplacians which unifies the study of resistor networks, the critical group, and the eigenvalues of the Laplacian and adjacency matrices. Given a graph with boundary $G$ together with a generalized Laplacian $L$ with entries in a commutative ring $R$, we define a generalized critical group $Υ_R(G,L)$. We relate $Υ_R(G,L)$ to spaces of harmonic functions on the network using the Hom, Tor, and Ext functors of homological algebra. We study how these algebraic objects transform under combinatorial operations on the network $(G,L)$, including harmonic morphisms, layer-stripping, duality, and symmetry. In particular, we use layer-stripping operations from the theory of resistor networks to systematize discrete harmonic continuation. This leads to an algebraic characterization of the graphs with boundary that can be completely layer-stripped, an algorithm for simplifying computation of $Υ_R(G,L)$, and upper bounds for the number of invariant factors in the critical group and the multiplicity of Laplacian eigenvalues in terms of geometric quantities.

description: The development of high efficiency perovskite solar cells has sparked a multitude of measurements on the optical properties of these materials. For the most studied methylammonium(MA)PbI$_3$ perovskite, a large range (6-55 meV) of exciton binding energies has been reported by various experiments. The existence of excitons at room temperature is unclear. For the MAPb$X_3$ perovskites we report on relativistic $GW$-BSE calculations. This method is capable to directly calculate excitonic properties from first-principles. At low temperatures it predicts exciton binding energies in agreement with the reported 'large' values. For MAPbI$_3$, phonon modes present in this frequency range have a negligible contribution to the ionic screening. By calculating the polarisation in time from finite temperature molecular dynamics, we show that at room temperature this does not change. We therefore exclude ionic screening as an explanation for the experimentally observed reduction of the exciton binding energy at room temperature.

description: Recently, the bi-local fields attract the interest in studying the duality between $O(N)$ vector model and a higher-spin gauge theory in AdS spacetime. In those theories, the bi-local fields are realized as collective one's of the $O(N)$ vector fields, which are the source of higher-spin bulk fields. Historically, the bi-local fields are introduced as a candidate of non-local fields by Yukawa. Today, Yukawa's bi-local fields are understood from a viewpoint of relativistic two-particle bound systems, the bi-local systems. We study the relation between the bi-local collective fields out of higher-spin bulk fields and the fields out of the bi-local systems embedded in AdS${}_5$ spacetime with warped metric. It is shown that the effective spring constant of the bi-local system depends on the brane, on which the bi-local system is located. In particular, a bi-local system with vanishing spring constant, which is similar to the bi-local collective fields, can be realized on a low-energy IR brane.

Firms must seek least-cost solutions to such problems in producing, input supplying, processing, and distribution. Many technological alternatives exist, but their application will be influenced by the size, location, and functions of firms, and the economic uses for byproducts from wastes. Comprehensive research programs are needed to aid firms and public agencies in achieving pollution abatement with a minimum of adverse impacts on agricultural industries.

description: Single crystals of the Kitaev spin-liquid candidate $α$-RuCl$_3$ have been studied to determine low-temperature bulk properties, structure and the magnetic ground state. Refinements of x-ray diffraction data show that the low temperature crystal structure is described by space group $C2/m$ with a nearly-perfect honeycomb lattice exhibiting less than 0.2 \% in-plane distortion. The as-grown single crystals exhibit only one sharp magnetic transition at $T_{N}$ = 7~K. The magnetic order below this temperature exhibits a propagation vector of $k$ = (0, 1, 1/3), which coincides with a 3-layer stacking of the $C2/m$ unit cells. Magnetic transitions at higher temperatures up to 14~K can be introduced by deformations of the crystal that result in regions in the crystal with a 2-layer stacking sequence. The best fit symmetry allowed magnetic structure of the as-grown crystals shows that the spins lie in the $ac$-plane, with a zigzag configuration in each honeycomb layer. The three layer repeat out-of-plane structure can be refined as a 120$^o$ spiral order or a collinear structure with spin direction 35$^o$ away from the $a$-axis. The collinear spin configuration yields a slightly better fit and also is physically preferred. The average ordered moment in either structure is less than 0.45(5) $μ_B$ per Ru$^{3+}$ ion.

description: We study the cavity mode frequencies of a Fabry-Pérot cavity containing two vibrating dielectric membranes. We derive the equations for the mode resonances and provide approximate analytical solutions for them as a function of the membrane positions, which act as an excellent approximation when the relative and center-of-mass position of the two membranes are much smaller than the cavity length. With these analytical solutions, one finds that extremely large optomechanical coupling of the membrane relative motion can be achieved in the limit of highly reflective membranes when the two membranes are placed very close to a resonance of the inner cavity formed by them. We also study the cavity finesse of the system and verify that, under the conditions of large coupling, it is not appreciably affected by the presence of the two membranes. The achievable large values of the ratio between the optomechanical coupling and the cavity decay rate, $g/κ$, make this two-membrane system the simplest promising platform for implementing cavity optomechanics in the strong coupling regime.

description: We present a complete cross-validation of significant wave heights (SWH) extracted from altimetry data from all ten existing satellites with available in situ (buoy and echosounder) wave measurements for the Baltic Sea basin. The main purpose is to select an adequate altimetry data subset for a subsequent evaluation of the wave climate. The satellite measurements with the backscatter coefficients > 13.5 cdb, errors in the SWH normalized standard deviation > 0.5 m and snapshots with centroids closer than 0.2 degrees to the land are not reliable. The ice flag usually denotes the ice concentration of > 50%. The presence of ice affects the SWH data starting from concentrations 10%, but substantial effects are only evident for concentrations > 30%. The altimetry data selected based on these criteria have very good correspondence with in situ data, except for GEOSAT Phase 1 data (1985-1989) that could not be validated. The root-mean-square difference of altimetry and in situ data is in the range of 0.23-0.37, which is significant for the Baltic Sea, compared with an average wave height of ~1 m. The bias for CRYOSAT-2, ERS-2, JASON-1/2 and SARAL data is below 0.06 m. The ENVISAT, ERS-1, GEOSAT and TOPEX satellites revealed larger biases up to 0.23 m. The SWH time series from several satellite pairs (ENVISAT/JASON-1, SARAL/JASON-2, ERS-1/TOPEX) exhibit substantial mutual temporal drift and part of them evidently are not homogeneous in time. A new high-resolution SWH data set from the SARAL satellite reveals a very good correspondence with the in situ data and with the data stream from previous satellites.

Can Star-Disk Collisions Explain the Missing Red Giants Problem in the Galactic Center?

description: Observations have revealed a relative paucity of red giant (RG) stars within the central 0.5pc in the Galactic Center (GC). Motivated by this finding we investigate the hypothesis that collisions of stars with a fragmenting accretion disk are responsible for the observed dearth of evolved stars. We use 3-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations to model a star with radius $10 R_{\odot}$ and mass $1 M_{\odot}$, representative of the missing population of RGs, colliding with high density clumps. We find that multiple collisions with clumps of column density $\gtrsim10^{8}\, {\rm g\,cm^{-2}}$ can strip a substantial fraction of the star's envelope and in principle render it invisible to observations. Simulations confirm that repeated impacts are particularly efficient in driving mass loss as partially stripped RGs expand and have increased cross sections for subsequent collisions. Because the envelope is unbound on account of the kinetic energy of the star, any significant amount of stripping of the RG population in the GC should be mirrored by a systematic decay of their orbits and possibly by their enhanced rotational velocity. To be viable, this scenario requires that the total mass of the fragmenting disk has been several orders of magnitude higher than that of the early type stars which now form the stellar disk in the GC.

description: The magnetic tunnel junction is a memory device at the core of emerging magnetic random access memory technology. As CMOS technology is approaching its physical limits, spintronics, with benefits like non-volatility and normally-off behavior, is a promising candidate for next-generation artificial intelligence computing applications. In this dissertation, I show prototypes of magnetic tunnel junction in-memory computing devices that use spin-orbit torque switching, with device tunnel magnetoresistance up to 203%, close to the expected highest 200% seen in this type of magnetic tunnel junctions, and average resistance-area product close to the unpatterned film. Device cycle-to-cycle variation in switching voltage curtailed to 10% by controlling the domain wall initial position, which corresponds to 90% accuracy in a domain wall-magnetic tunnel junction full adder simulation. Repeatability of writing and resetting the device and an inverter circuit of two devices are also shown in this work. Another promising feature of magnetic tunnel junctions is their intrinsic hardness to radiation, which makes them an attractive candidate to be used in high radiation environments. We investigate the radiation hardness of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy spin-orbit torque magnetic tunnel junctions to different types of irradiations, such as gamma and heavy-ion irradiation. We observe gamma ionizing dose up to 1 Mrad(Si) does not alter the magnetic switching behavior of the film. Then we examine the effects of heavy ion irradiation through Ta¹⁺ bombardment and realize high enough heavy ion fluence will cause displacement damage and intermixing, mostly at the bottom layers of the stack, which degrades the magnetic properties of the device. We propose a multi-weight synapse using a notched magnetic tunnel junction for neuromorphic computing. We observe the high stability of the resistance states and confirm it by implementing it in a CIFAR-100 inference task and checking the accuracy. Employing the multi-weight switching capability of the proposed synapse, we design an analog content addressable memory based on magnetic tunnel junctions. Some future directions are proposed to optimize these devices for more separated and bigger range bounds that is desired for this application. These results make strides in using magnetic tunnel junctions for in-memory, neuromorphic and radiation hard computing.

Current induced magnetization dynamics and magnetization switching in superconducting ferromagnetic hybrid (F$|$S$|$F) structures

description: We investigate the current induced magnetization dynamics and magnetization switching in an unconventional p-wave superconductor sandwiched between two misaligned ferromagnetic layers by numerically solving Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation modified with current induced Slonczewski's spin torque term. A modified form of Ginzburg-Landau free energy functional has been used for this purpose. We demonstrated the possibility of current induced magnetization switching in the spin-triplet ferromagnetic superconducting hybrid structures with strong easy axis anisotropy and the condition for magnetization reversal. The switching time for such arrangement is calculated and is found to be highly dependent on the magnetic configuration along with the biasing current. This study would be useful in designing practical superconducting-spintronic devices.
