Rhapis laosensis

description: 6. Rhapis laosensis Beccari (1910: 225).  Lectotype (designated by Hastings 2003):— LAOS. Saraburi, no date, C. Thorel 3154 (lectotype P!, isolectotype FI!)
 Stems 2.2(1.0–3.2) m long, 0.7(0.4–1.0) cm diameter. Leaf ligules lobed, more or less persistent; petioles 34.3(7.5– 69.5) cm long, 2.6(1.6–3.9) mm wide at the apex; abaxial hastula usually complete, a low ridge separating petiole apex from costa; segments 8(2–13) per leaf; central segments lanceolate or elliptic, usually multi-veined, acuminate, the apices oblique, toothed, 29.3(18.5–41.0) cm long, 3.7(1.5–7.0) cm wide at midpoint, joined at the base, the non-split basal part 4.1(1.6–8.8) cm; lateral segments 26.8(15.0–39.0) cm long, 2.4(1.0–4.3) cm wide at midpoint, the non-split basal part 2.2(1.0–5.4) cm; abaxial surface of segments without scales, not indumentose when first exposed. Inflorescences small to large, with the first branch almost as large as the rest of the inflorescence; prophyll and peduncular bract broad, flattened, completely overlapping, the inflorescences exerted laterally through the bracts on a recurved peduncle; rachis 8.1(5.4–14.0) cm long; rachillae not filiform, glabrous; proximal rachilla 6.0(3.8–10.2) cm long, 1.3(0.8–2.6) mm wide; staminate and pistillate flowers sessile; staminate and pistillate corollas with poorly developed, inturned apical lobes, these not swollen internally; filaments terete; fruits globose, white, 8.3(7.2–9.7) mm long, 6.7(5.5–7.8) mm diameter, borne on a swollen, persistent perianth.
 Taxonomic notes:— Hastings (2003) reported one specimen as having hermaphrodite flowers (see also Giddey et al. 2009).
 Subspecific variation:—The range of Rhapis laosensis is divided into two lowland populations — west (Laos, Thailand) and east (Vietnam) of the higher elevation Truong Son range. Specimens from Laos and Thailand differ significantly from those from Vietnam in ten variables (stem diameter, petiole length, petiole width, number of segments, length of central segment, non-split part of central segment, length of lateral segment, non-split part of lateral segment, rachis length, proximal rachilla length)(t -test, P <0.05), with specimens from Vietnam having higher mean values for all variables. Based this, the two populations are recognized as subspecies (subspp. laosensis, macrantha).

description: We perform an analysis of Lattice QCD data in the open-charm sector based on the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. The low-energy constants are adjusted to recover the open-charm meson masses on Lattice QCD ensembles from HPQCD, ETMC and HSC with pion and kaon masses smaller than 550 MeV. A significant set of low-energy parameters is obtainable only if the most recent information from HSC on scattering observables is included in our global fit. For the first time our analysis considers the effect of left-hand cuts as developed in terms of a generalized potential approach (GPA) previously by one of the authors. Here we use coupled-channel interaction terms at the one-loop level. The elastic s-wave and p-wave $D\,π$, $D K $ and $D \bar K $ scattering phase shifts on ensembles with nominal pion masses of about 239 MeV and 391 MeV are reproduced faithfully. Based on such low-energy parameters we predict s- and p-wave phase shifts and inelasticities at physical quark masses, where the statistical uncertainties in the phase shifts are smaller than 1 degree always. Most striking would be the exotic s-wave $D_s π$ channel, for which we predict a resonance state at about 2.287 GeV where the phase shift passes through 90 degrees.

description: We investigate gravitational waves (GWs) generated in a two-field inflationary model with a non-canonical kinetic term, in which the gravitational Chern-Simons term is coupled to a heavy dynamical field. In such a model, primordial GWs experience a period of resonant amplification for some modes. In addition, isocurvature perturbations suffer from a temporary tachyonic instability due to an effective negative mass, which source curvature perturbations, resulting in large induced GWs. These two stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds correspond to different frequency bands, which are expected to be detected by future GW detectors such as SKA, LISA and Taiji.

description: In this paper the structure of the generalized Vaidya spacetime when the type-II of the matter field satisfies the equation of the state $P=ρ$ is investigated. Satisfying all energy conditions we show that this spacetime contains the 'eternal' naked singularity. It means that once the singularity is formed it will never be covered with the apparent horizon. However, in the case of the apparent horizon formation the resulting object is a white hole. We also prove that this spacetime contains only null naked singularity.

Phases and condensates in zero-temperature QCD at finite $μ_I$ and $μ_S$

description: I discuss pion and koan condensation and the the properties of the phases of QCD at finite isospin chemical potential $μ_I$ and strangeness chemical potential $μ_S$ at zero temperature using three-flavor chiral perturbation theory. Electromagnetic effects are included in the calculation of the phase diagram, which implies that the charged meson condensed phases become superconducting phases of QCD with a massive photon via the Higgs mechanism. Without electromagnetic effects, we show results for the light quark condensate and the pion condensate as functions of $μ_I$ at next-to-leading (NLO) order in the low-energy expansion. The results are compared with recent lattice simulations and by including the NLO corrections, one obtains very good agreement.

description: We consider an integration of renewable energy into transport and electricity sectors through vehicle to grid (V2G) technologies for an energy system that is predominantly based on lignite. The national energy system of Macedonia is modeled using EnergyPLAN which integrates energy for electricity, transport and heat, and includes hourly fluctuations in human needs and the environment. We show that electric-vehicles can provide the necessary storage enabling a fully renewable energy profile for Macedonia that can match the country's growing demand for energy. Furthermore, a large penetration of electric vehicles leads to a dramatic reduction of 47% of small particles and other air pollutants generated by car traffic in 2050.

description: A kinetic framework for the ultrafast photophysics of tris(2,2-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) phosphonated and methyl-phosphonated derivatives is used as a basis for modeling charge injection by ruthenium dyes into a semiconductor substrate. By including the effects of light scattering, dye diffusion and adsorption kinetics during sample preparation, and the optical response of oxidized dyes, quantitative agreement with multiple transient absorption datasets is achieved on timescales spanning femtoseconds to nanoseconds. In particular, quantitative agreement with important spectroscopic handles, decay of an excited state absorption signal component associated with charge injection in the UV region of the spectrum and the dynamical redshift of an approximately 500 nm isosbestic point, validates our kinetic model. Pseudo-first-order rate coefficients for charge injection are estimated in this work, with an order of magnitude ranging 1011 s-1 to 1012 s-1. The model makes the minimalist assumption that all excited states of a particular dye have the same charge injection coefficient, an assumption that would benefit from additional theoretical and experimental exploration. We have adapted this kinetic model to predict charge injection under continuous solar irradiation, and find that as many as 68 electron transfer events per dye per second take place, significantly more than prior estimates in the literature.

description: We consider the azimuthal correlations of charged hadron pairs with large total transverse momentum and small relative momentum, produced in proton-proton collisions with one transversely polarized proton. One of these correlations directly probes the chiral-odd transversity parton distribution in connection with a chiral-odd interference fragmentation function. We present predictions for this observable based on previous extractions of transversity (from charged pion pair production in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering) and of the interference fragmentation function (from the production of back-to-back charged pion pairs in electron-positron annihilations). All analyses are performed in the framework of collinear factorization. We compare our predictions to the recent data on proton-proton collisions released by the STAR collaboration at RHIC, and we find them reasonably compatible. This comparison confirms for the first time the predicted role of transversity in proton-proton collisions and it allows to test its universality.

We first linearise the problem using a sieve approach and then apply the total penalised maximum likelihood estimator to the linearised model. Sufficient conditions for √n-consistency and efficiency under parametric assumption are derived and a possible misspecification bias under different smoothness assumptions on the design is analysed. The Monte Carlo simulations show the performance of the estimator with simulated data.

description: A novel method of spectroscopy in ion traps termed leak-out spectroscopy (LOS) is presented. Here, mass selected, cold ions are excited by an infrared laser. In a subsequent collision with a neutral buffer gas particle their internal energy is then transferred to kinetic energy. As a result, these ions leak out from the ion trap and are detected. The LOS scheme is generally applicable, very sensitive and close to background free when operated at low temperature. The potential of this method is demonstrated and characterized here for the first time by recording the rotationally resolved spectrum of the C-H stretching vibration $ν_1$ of linear C$_3$H$^+$. Besides performing high-resolution spectroscopy, this method opens up the way for analyzing the composition of trap content, e.g., determining isomer ratios, by selectively expelling isomers or other isobaric ions from the trap. Likewise, LOS can be used to prepare clean samples of structural and nuclear spin isomers.

Length filtration of the separable states

description: We investigate the separable states $\r$ of an arbitrary multipartite quantum system with Hilbert space $\cH$ of dimensionin $d$. The length $L(\r)$ of $\r$ is defined as the smallest number of pure product states having $\r$ as their mixture. The length filtration of the set of separable states, $\cS$, is the increasing chain $\emptyset\subset\cS'_1\subseteq\cS'_2\subseteq\cdots$, where $\cS'_i=\{\r\in\cS:L(\r)\le i\}$. We define the maximum length, $L_{\rm max}=\max_{\r\in\cS} L(\r)$, critical length, $L_{\rm crit}$, and yet another special length, $L_c$, which was defined by a simple formula in one of our previous papers. The critical length indicates the first term in the length filtrartion whose dimension is equal to $\dim\cS$. We show that in general $d\le L_c\le L_{\rm crit}\le L_{\rm max}\le d^2$. We conjecture that the equality $L_{\rm crit}=L_c$ holds for all finite-dimensional multipartite quantum systems. Our main result is that $L_{\rm crit}=L_c$ for the bipartite systems having a single qubit as one of the parties. This is accomplished by computing the rank of the Jacobian matrix of a suitable map having $\cS$ as its range.

description: We introduce a new linear relation in the isotope shifts of atomic spectroscopy. While the famous King relation is the linear relation among the different transitions, the new one is the linear relation among the different isotope pairs. Since we obtain this relation by exchanging the roles of the electronic and the nuclear factors in the original relation, we call it the dual King relation. This relation shows us similar information to the original King relation without including new fit parameters when we measure the isotope shifts of many transitions. In the dual King relation, the fit coefficients consist of the nuclear factors. Then, the fit results give us constraints to the ratios of the isotope dependence independent of the electron wave functions. This helps us to test the origin of unknown higher order isotope shifts. We show that the dual King relation can also be employed to constrain the weakly interacting light new boson at the same level as the original King relation.

description: Large enterprise software systems make many complex interactions with other services in their environment. Developing and testing for production-like conditions is therefore a very challenging task. Current approaches include emulation of dependent services using either explicit modelling or record-and-replay approaches. Models require deep knowledge of the target services while record-and-replay is limited in accuracy. Both face developmental and scaling issues. We present a new technique that improves the accuracy of record-and-replay approaches, without requiring prior knowledge of the service protocols. The approach uses Multiple Sequence Alignment to derive message prototypes from recorded system interactions and a scheme to match incoming request messages against prototypes to generate response messages. We use a modified Needleman-Wunsch algorithm for distance calculation during message matching. Our approach has shown greater than 99% accuracy for four evaluated enterprise system messaging protocols. The approach has been successfully integrated into the CA Service Virtualization commercial product to complement its existing techniques.

description: Ultrafast charge transfer processes provide a facile way to create interlayer excitons in directly contacted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers. More sophisticated heterostructures composed of TMD/hBN/TMD enable new ways to control interlayer exciton properties and achieve novel exciton phenomena, such as exciton insulators and condensates, where longer lifetimes are desired. In this work, we experimentally study the charge transfer dynamics in a heterostructure composed of a 1 nm thick hBN spacer between MoSe$_{2}$ and WSe$_{2}$ monolayers. We observe the hole transfer from MoSe$_{2}$ to WSe$_{2}$ through the hBN barrier with a time constant of 500 ps, which is over 3 orders of magnitude slower than that between TMD layers without a spacer. Furthermore, we observe strong competition between the interlayer charge transfer and intralayer exciton-exciton annihilation processes at high excitation densities. Our work opens possibilities to understand charge transfer pathways in TMD/hBN/TMD heterostructures for the efficient generation and control of interlayer excitons.

description: Carbon fiber reinforced composites became so popular in automotive, aerospace, marine and military industries in past years, because of their high strength, low weight and subsequently high specific strength. The basic challenges of producing the CFRP components are their forming and joining techniques. In this study, a finite element analysis is carried out by the purpose that the optimum geometries to be selected for manufacturing an electromagnetically assisted joining by forming system of two aluminium and CFRP sheets. Electromagnetic forming is one of the high speed forming technologies that uses the Lorentz force as a forming pressure. High speed and usually one-step forming process are some of its advantages while, the necessity of high electrical conductivity of the work-piece is an important restriction. Aluminium deformed in this study, so that its behaviour is assumed to be dependent on the strain rate. Also, the hardening behaviour of aluminium is described by the Johnson-Cook material model. The joining by forming system is modelled in the finite element code by means of the ABAQUS 6.13 FEM software. The magnetic pressure pulse of the coil is described by the VDLOAD subroutine to apply it to the lower surface of the aluminium field shaper. Under influence of this force, the punch bulges the aluminium sheet into the hole on the CFRP sheet and a cavity on die helps the bulged region to form a mechanical interlock. In the experimental investigations, predrilled CFRP sheets with different diameter holes and locations are used. The effect of geometrical parameters such as metal thickness are studied on the quality of joints. The most important parameter to be considered here, is the tensile strength of the joints. Therefore, the joint samples had been applied under tensile test in order to consider failure modes, experimentally.

description: Nonperturbative determinations of the renormalization group (RG) $β$ function are crucial to understand properties of gauge-fermion systems at strong coupling and connect lattice simulations and the perturbative ultraviolet regime. Choosing well-understood, QCD-like systems with SU(3) gauge group and either six or four fundamental flavors, we investigate their step-scaling $β$ function. In both cases we push the simulations to the boundary of chiral symmetry breaking and study the regime $g^2_{GF} \lesssim 8.2$ with six, and $g^2_{GF} \lesssim 6.6$ with four flavors. We carefully consider the lattice discretization errors by comparing three different gradient flows (GF), and for each flow three operators to estimate the renormalized finite volume coupling. We also consider the tree level improvement of the coupling. Noteworthy outcome is that nonperturbatively determined $β$ functions run much slower than perturbatively predicted.

description: Many physical parameters that can be estimated from space mission tracking data influence both the translational dynamics and proper time rates of observers. These different proper time rates cause a variability of the time transfer observable beyond that caused by their translational (and rotational) dynamics. With the near-future implementation of (interplanetary) transponder laser ranging, these effects will become increasingly important, requiring a re-evaluation of the common data analysis practice of using a priori time ephemerides, which is the goal of this paper. We develop a framework for the simultaneous estimation of the initial translational state and the initial proper time of an observer, with the goal of facilitating robust tracking data analysis from next-generation space missions carrying highly accurate clocks and tracking equipment. Using our approach, the influence of physical parameters on both translational and time dynamics are considered at the same level in the analysis, and mutual correlations between the signatures of the two are automatically identified. We perform a covariance analysis using our proposed method with simulated laser data from Earth-based stations to both a Mars and Mercury lander. Using four years of tracking data for the Mars lander simulations, we find a difference between our results using the simultaneous space-time dynamics estimation and the classical analysis technique (with an ta priori time ephemeris) of around 0.1 % in formal errors and correlation coefficients. For a Mercury lander this rises to around 1% for a 1-month mission and 10 % for a 4-year mission. By means of Monte Carlo simulation, we find that using an a priori time ephemeris of representative accuracy will result in estimation errors that are orders of magnitude above the formal error when processing highly accurate laser time transfer data.

description: We developed a highly integrated and versatile electronic module to equip small nuclear physics experiments and lab teaching classes: the User friendly Configurable Trigger, scaler and delay Module for nuclear and particle physics (UCTM). It is configurable through a Graphical User Interface (GUI) and provides a large number of possible trigger conditions without any Hardware Description Language (HDL) required knowledge. This new version significantly enhances the previous capabilities by providing two additional features: signal digitization and time measurements. The design, performances and a typical application are presented.

description: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINN) emerged as a powerful tool for solving scientific computing problems, ranging from the solution of Partial Differential Equations to data assimilation tasks. One of the advantages of using PINN is to leverage the usage of Machine Learning computational frameworks relying on the combined usage of CPUs and co-processors, such as accelerators, to achieve maximum performance. This work investigates the design, implementation, and performance of PINNs, using the Quantum Processing Unit (QPU) co-processor. We design a simple Quantum PINN to solve the one-dimensional Poisson problem using a Continuous Variable (CV) quantum computing framework. We discuss the impact of different optimizers, PINN residual formulation, and quantum neural network depth on the quantum PINN accuracy. We show that the optimizer exploration of the training landscape in the case of quantum PINN is not as effective as in classical PINN, and basic Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) optimizers outperform adaptive and high-order optimizers. Finally, we highlight the difference in methods and algorithms between quantum and classical PINNs and outline future research challenges for quantum PINN development.

Quantum Suppression of Alignment in Ultrasmall Grains: Microwave Emission from Spinning Dust will be Negligibly Polarized

description: The quantization of energy levels in very nanoparticles suppresses dissipative processes that convert grain rotational kinetic energy into heat. For grains small enough to have GHz rotation rates, the suppression of dissipation can be extreme. As a result, alignment of such grains is suppressed. This applies both to alignment of the grain body with its angular momentum J, and to alignment of J with the local magnetic field B_0. If the anomalous microwave emission is rotational emission from spinning grains, it will be negligibly polarized at GHz frequencies, with P < 10^{-6} at frequencies above 10 GHz.

description: The most accurate theoretical method to describe excitons is the solution of the Bethe-Salpeter equation in the GW approximation (GW-BSE). However, because of its computation cost, time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is becoming the alternative approach to GW-BSE to describe excitons in solids. Nowadays, the most efficient strategy to describe optical spectra of solids in TDDFT is to use long-range corrected exchange-correlation kernels on top of GW or scissor-corrected energies. In recent years, a different strategy based on range-separated hybrid functionals started to be developed in the framework of time-dependent generalised Kohn-Sham density functional theory (TDGKSDFT). Here, we compare the performance of long-range corrected kernels with range-separated hybrid functionals for the description of excitons in solids. This comparison has the purpose to weight the pros and cons of using range-separated hybrid functionals, giving new perspectives for theoretical developments of these functionals. We illustrate the comparison for the case of Si and LiF, representative of solid state excitons.

Coexistence of Nematic Order and Superconductivity in the Hubbard Model

description: We study the interplay of nematic and superconducting order in the two-dimensional Hubbard model and show that they can coexist, especially when superconductivity is not the energetically dominant phase. Due to a breaking of the $C_4$ symmetry, the coexisting phase inherently contains admixture of the $s$-wave pairing components. As a result, the superconducting gap exhibits very non-standard features including changed nodal directions. Our results also show that in the optimally doped regime the superconducting phase is typically unstable towards developing nematicity (breaking of the $C_4$ symmetry). This has implications for the cuprate high-$T_c$ superconductors, for which in this regime the so-called intertwined orders have recently been observed. Namely, the coexisting phase may be viewed as a precursor to such more involved patterns of symmetry breaking.

description: Questo breve testo intende suggerire alcune pratiche e strumenti su cui impostare un processo che ha come punto di arrivo la creazione di un Distretto dell’Economia Civile [1]. Tuttavia, perché si possa proporre delle azioni di intervento verso una maggiore intensità relazionale è necessario innanzitutto partire da una conoscenza delle realtà relazionali già esistenti in un’area circoscritta. Si intende qui offrire un metodo per identificare e descrivere la pluralità di reti di relazioni (layers relazionali) e le rappresentazioni collettive che sono parte costitutiva della realtà sociale di un territorio.

Il processo qui presentato si scompone in quattro steps differenti. I primi tre possono essere eseguiti uno dopo l’altro o contemporaneamente ed essere portati avanti da un solo gruppo di lavoro, al limite una sola persona, così come da équipes indipendenti. Solamente la quarta e ultima tappa di questo metodo, ossia la valutazione vera e propria del potenziale inespresso di un distretto-luogo, propedeutica all’elaborazione di proposte di intervento, fondandosi sui dati empirici raccolti dai primi tre steps segue, logicamente e cronologicamente, questi ultimi.

description: In this paper, we propose an access control method with a secret key for object detection models for the first time so that unauthorized users without a secret key cannot benefit from the performance of trained models. The method enables us not only to provide a high detection performance to authorized users but to also degrade the performance for unauthorized users. The use of transformed images was proposed for the access control of image classification models, but these images cannot be used for object detection models due to performance degradation. Accordingly, in this paper, selected feature maps are encrypted with a secret key for training and testing models, instead of input images. In an experiment, the protected models allowed authorized users to obtain almost the same performance as that of non-protected models but also with robustness against unauthorized access without a key.

description: This paper proposes a design method of the tool coil by topology optimization for the electromagnetic sharp edge forming process. Topology optimization is an approach that optimizes material configuration in a given domain to meet the design requirements. The design problem for the tool coil is defined as enhancing efficiency of the forming process and optimization problem is set to be maximization of the Lorentz force induced on the tool coil. A new topology optimization formulation based on the numerical methods for electromagnetism using FEM and BEM is developed for maximization of the Lorentz force. Optimum design of the tool coil is obtained by the topology optimization using the element density approach. The optimized result is compared with other coils which have different configurations to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. The idea of applying topology optimization to the design of the tool coil is successful and this formulation deals effectively for the optimization problems.
