description: We argue that black p-branes will occur in the collision of D0-branes at Planckian energies. This extents the Amati, Ciafaloni and Veneziano and 't Hooft conjecture that black holes occur in the collision of two light particles at Planckian energies. We discuss a possible scenario for such a process by using colliding plane gravitational waves. D-branes in the presence of black holes are discussed. M(atrix) theory and matrix string in curved space are considered. A violation of quantum coherence in M(atrix) theory is noticed.

New Concept of Dynamic Complexity in Quantum Mechanics and Beyond
Creators: name: Kirilyuk, Andrei P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The qualitatively new concept of dynamic complexity in quantum mechanics is based on a new paradigm appearing within a nonperturbational analysis of the Schroedinger equation for a generic Hamiltonian system. The unreduced analysis explicitly provides the complete, consistent solution as a set of many incompatible components ('realisations') which should permanently and probabilistically replace one another, since each of them is 'complete' in the ordinary sense. This discovery leads to the universally applicable concept of dynamic complexity and self-consistent, realistic resolution of the stagnating problems of quantum chaos, quantum measurement, indeterminacy and wave reduction. The peculiar, 'mysterious' character of quantum behaviour itself is seen now as a result of a dynamically complex, intrinsically multivalued behaviour of interacting fields at the corresponding lowest levels of the (now completely causal) structure of reality. Incorporating the results of the canonical theories as an over-simplified limiting case, this new approach urgently needs support, since its causality and completeness are directly extendible to arbitrary cases of complex behaviour of real systems, in sharp contrast to the dominating inefficient empiricism of 'computer experimentation' with primitive mechanistic (i. e. dynamically single-valued) 'models' of the irreducibly multivalued reality.

description: Many human social phenomena, such as cooperation, the growth of settlements, traffic dynamics and pedestrian movement, appear to be accessible to mathematical descriptions that invoke self-organization. Here we develop a model of pedestrian motion to explore the evolution of trails in urban green spaces such as parks. Our aim is to address such questions as what the topological structures of these trail systems are, and whether optimal path systems can be predicted for urban planning. We use an `active walker' model that takes into account pedestrian motion and orientation and the concomitant feedbacks with the surrounding environment. Such models have previously been applied to the study of complex structure formation in physical chemical and biological systems. We find that our model is able to reporduce many of the observed large-scale spatial features of trail systems.

QED challenges at FCC-ee precision measurements

description: The expected experimental precision of the rates and asymmetries in the Future Circular Collider with electron positron beams (FCC-ee) in the centre of the mass energy range 88-365GeV considered for construction in CERN, will be better by a factor 5-200. This will be thanks to very high luminosity, factor up to $10^5$ higher than in the past LEP experiments. This poses the extraordinary challenge of improving the precision of the Standard Model predictions by a comparable factor. In particular the perturbative calculations of the trivial QED effects, which have to be removed from the experimental data, are considered to be a major challenge for almost all quantities to be measured at FCC-ee. The task of this paper is to summarize on the "state of the art" in this class of the calculations left from the LEP era and to examine what is to be done to match the precision of the FCC-ee experiments -- what kind of technical advancements are necessary. The above analysis will be done for most important observables of the FCC-ee like the total cross sections near $Z$ and $WW$ threshold, charge asymmetries, the invisible width of $Z$ boson, the spin asymmetry from $τ$ lepton decay and the luminosity measurement.

Spatial Organization of CD28 Modulates T-cell Activation

description: T-cells are central to our success as a species. They confer specific and long-term immunity in a process known as adaptive immunity. During adaptive immune response, pathogen ingested by peripheral sentinel cells are brought to the local lymph nodes and presented to T-cells. T-cell recognizes the antigen via its receptor complex (TCR-CD3). The high affinity binding primes the cell for activation. With a positive costimulationary signal from CD28, the T-cell is fully activated, resulting in IL-2 secretions and cellular proliferation. Clinicians are increasingly harnessing the adaptive immune system to combat diseases such as cancer. Specifically, T-cells are activated and expanded ex vivo for adoptive immunotherapies. The ability to modulate T-cell activation is crucial in engineering appropriate effector cell populations for therapeutics. The focus of this thesis is to address the functional impact of CD28 spatial organization on T-cell activation.
      It has been observed that the spatial segregation of CD3 and CD28 by a few microns has resulted in poor activation of human T-cells. Lck, a Src family kinase (SFK) emerges as the instigator of the phenomenon. The kinase is associated with both CD3 and CD28 signal cascades. We propose a reaction diffusion model to describe the delicate balance between protein mobility and Lck de-activation. The work in this dissertation describes two probes to investigate Lck kinase activity, which permit real-time imaging of both the initiation of pLck activity and its duration. A FRET reporter is constructed to study the spatial and temporal initiation of the kinase activity. Embedded with the Lck membrane domain and contained a substrate for pLck to phosphorylate, the FRET biosensor reports the Lck kinase activity in real-time. Using microprinting to control CD3 and CD28 spatial organizations, the FRET reporter reveals that while T-cells require CD28 for significant IL-2 secretion, CD3 engagement is essential to initiate cellular activation through a spike in pLck kinase activity. Spatially, the reporter shows heightened kinase activity concentrated at the center of the cells upon CD3 engagement.
      To study the duration of pLck activity, a recruitment reporter is made. CD3 is found ubiquitously throughout the cellular membrane. And its activation by pLck induces the recruitment of a pair of tandem SH2-domain. The recruitment probe (also containing a pair of tandem SH2-domain) revealed curtailed pLck kinase activity due to CD3-CD28 segregation. Ultimately, understanding CD28 modulation of T-cell activation is clinically relevant as it provides new opportunities and targets for the development of therapeutics.

description: Decay of a near-extremal black hole down to the extremal state is studied in the background field approximation to determine the fate of injected matter and Hawking pairs. By examining the behavior of light rays and solutions to the wave equation it is concluded that the singularity at the origin is irrelevant. Furthermore, there is most likely an instability of the event horizon arising from the accumulation of injected matter and Hawking partners there. The possible role of this instability in reconciling the D-brane and black hole pictures of the decay process is discussed.

description: This paper shows that a new type of artificial neural network (ANN) -- the Simultaneous Recurrent Network (SRN) -- can, if properly trained, solve a difficult function approximation problem which conventional ANNs -- either feedforward or Hebbian -- cannot. This problem, the problem of generalized maze navigation, is typical of problems which arise in building true intelligent control systems using neural networks. (Such systems are discussed in the chapter by Werbos in K.Pribram, Brain and Values, Erlbaum 1998.) The paper provides a general review of other types of recurrent networks and alternative training techniques, including a flowchart of the Error Critic training design, arguable the only plausible approach to explain how the brain adapts time-lagged recurrent systems in real-time. The C code of the test is appended. As in the first tests of backprop, the training here was slow, but there are ways to do better after more experience using this type of network.
description: 50p, 30 figs. Pang did most of the work here. Werbos created the designs. With her agreement, Werbos included this in int'l patent WO 97/46929 published 12/11/97. In 1997 Pang and Baras showed SRNs improve performance in a realistic communications task. The code draws on ch.8 of Werbos, Roots of Backpropagation, Wiley 1994, containing the 1974 thesis which first presented true backprop. Werbos later trained the SRN on 6 easy mazes, with steady gains on 6 hard mazes used for testing
Spatial Pattern of Street Vendors: A Case Study of Central Manhattan

description: There is always a lack of quantitative analysis of the spatial distribution of informal economy due to very limited data available (Hays-Mitchell, 1994; Qadri, 2016). However, as a critical part of the informal economy, street vendors play a crucial role in the urban environment and citizens’ daily lives. This research paper explores the spatial patterns of street vendors and the spatial relationship between formal retailers in the central part of Manhattan by using several geospatial statistic methods including Location Quotient, M-function and kernel density analysis. Spatial data of street vendors and formal retailers comes from two open sources: Google Street View and OpenStreetMap respectively. We find that compared with formal retailers, informal street vendors show a higher level of agglomeration effect and that the intensity increases as the scale becomes smaller. There is no evidence showing that co-clustering effects exist between street vendors and formal retailers belonging to the same category, though it is not the case for industries such as fresh food groceries. Moreover, street vendors and formal stores display significant differences in their spatial patterns areawide.

description: The electrospinning (ES) technique is able to produce polymer fibres at micro- and nano-metric scale that find application in various technological and biomedical sectors. Although the technique is well established, it still has several limitations, such as the restricted variety of printable inks (due to nozzle clogging problems) and the low control of fiber deposition (due to bending phenomena). Indeed, for some applications, the orderly arrangement, and in general the control of the deposition of these fibers, is highly desirable and people try to achieve it typically by structuring the external electrodes or using very expensive masks. Here we propose an innovative approach, which turns out to be easy to apply and economical which we have called “pyro-electrospinning” (p-ES). This technology is able to print high viscosity inks by regulating the deposition of the fibers with true regularity at the microscale. The p-ES system is based on the pyroelectric effect of polar dielectric crystals such as lithium niobate (LN). The electric field generated by the pyroelectric effect acts electro- hydrodynamically on the liquid sample, allowing the ordered deposition of the fibers. Therefore, the use of syringes, electrodes, and nozzles generally used in standard technologies is avoided. The reliability of the technique has been demonstrated both in the production of ordered periodic array fibers mats of D, L-poly (lactic acid) (PDLLA) and in spiral-shaped polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) fibers (up to 300 nm thick) directly on a support with a true regularity at the microscale. The technique proves valid also for the deposition of fibers of highly dense materials such as poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) avoiding the limitations mentioned above. The results show that these structures are useful for cell patterning applications.

Slope stability model of the Questa rock pile : phase 2

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A slope stability analysis was performed for the mine rock pile located at Molycorp’s Questa Mine. The goal of this task is to provide a sensitivity analysis with respect to the influence of various input parameters on the slope stability model. The influence of a change in soil shear strength parameters as influenced by weathering factors was also investigated. A particular focus of the study is the examination of potential thin weak layers and their impact on the stability analysis. The weathering aspects of these weak layers and the resulting influence on stability will be determined through a sensitivity analysis. The 2D forward analysis for the Goat Hill North detailed conceptual model results in a peak shear strength factor of safety of approximately 1.4 and a large deformation shear strength factor of safety equal to 1.18. The probability of failure of a conceptual model similar to the Goat Hill North conceptual model displays a probability of failure greater than 4% only if the overall slope angle exceeds 37.5 degrees and the large deformation shear strength values are used in the model. For a weak layer to cause failure conditions the effective shear strength of the layer would have to drop to approximately 20-23 degrees.

description: We present an experimental signature of the Anderson localisation of microcavity polaritons, and provide a systematic study of the dependence on disorder strength. We reveal a controllable degree of localisation, as characterised by the inverse-participation ratio, by tuning the positional disorder of arrays of interacting mesas. This constitutes the realisation of disorder-induced localisation in a driven-dissipative system. In addition to being an ideal candidate for investigating localisation in this regime, microcavity polaritons hold promise for low-power, ultra-small devices and their localisation could be used as a resource in quantum memory and quantum information processing.

description: The topology of the observable Universe is not yet known. The most significant observational sign of a non-trivial topology would be multiple images (``ghosts'') of a single object at (in general) different sky positions and redshifts. It is pointed out that the previous search by Gott (1980) for ghost images of the Coma cluster can be extended by using highly X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies. This is likely to be more efficient than with other astrophysical objects viewable on these scales since (1) X-ray clusters would be at least as easy to identify if viewed from other angles as any other objects and (2) the X-ray emitting thermally heated gas is likely to be simpler than for other objects. Possibilities that the highly luminous cluster RXJ~1347.5-1145 ($z=0\.45$) has a ``ghost image'' at lower redshift are analysed. It is noted that RXJ~1347.5-1145, the Coma cluster and the cluster CL~09104+4109 form nearly a right angle ($\approx 88°$) with arms of nearly identical length ($970h^{-1}$ and $960h^{-1}$ Mpc respectively) for $Ω_0=1, λ_0=0$ curvature ($h\equiv H_0/100 kms^{-1} Mpc^{-1}$). This is a clue that the three clusters could be ghost images of one and the same cluster, for a hypertoroidal topology. However, several arguments are presented that this relation is not physical.

description: We conjecture an explicit positive combinatorial formula for the expansion of unicellular LLT polynomials in the elementary symmetric basis. This is an analogue of the Shareshian-Wachs conjecture and previously studied by Panova and the author in 2018. We show that the conjecture for unicellular LLT polynomials implies a similar formula for vertical-strip LLT polynomials. We prove positivity in the elementary basis in for the class of graphs called `melting lollipops' previously considered by Huh, Nam and Yoo. This is done by proving a curious relationship between a generalization of charge and orientations of unit-interval graphs. We also provide short bijective proofs of Lee's three-term recurrences for unicellular LLT polynomials and we show that these recurrences are enough to generate all unicellular LLT polynomials associated with abelian area sequences.

description: The implementation of connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technologies enables a novel computational framework to deliver real-time control actions that optimize travel time, energy, and safety. Hardware is an integral part of any practical implementation of CAVs, and as such, it should be incorporated in any validation method. However, high costs associated with full scale, field testing of CAVs have proven to be a significant barrier. In this paper, we present the implementation of a decentralized control framework, which was developed previously, in a scaled-city using robotic CAVs, and discuss the implications of CAVs on travel time.

Thirty years of tailings seepage history from tailings & mine waste
Creators: name: Brixel, Bernard
name: Caldwell, Jack A.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This paper explores thirty and more years of the development of methods and approaches to the evaluation, analysis, and quantification of seepage into, through, and from tailings impoundment to subsurface soil and rock and the subsequent impact thereof on the environment. This is done by way of a survey of technical papers that have been published in the proceedings of the conferences on Tailings & Mine Waste. The story told in this paper is of the movement from simple professional understanding of the geology through the development of flow nets, computer codes, 3D modeling of seepage and geochemical interaction, an understanding of acid drainage and the many ways to deal with it, and hence the current ability of mines to understand, predict, and control potential impact of tailings seepage to the environment. [All papers were considered for technical and language appropriateness by the organizing committee.]

Fundamental Parameters of Hot Subdwarf Stars from Gaia Astrometry

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Asteroseismic modeling of pulsating hot subdwarf stars (sdBs/sdOs) and the investigation of eclipsing hot subdwarf binaries with low-mass or substellar companions (HW Vir systems) have contributed significantly to the list of sdBs/sdOs with known stellar masses. However, both methods are limited to the number of known pulsating sdBs and HW Vir systems. The fundamental stellar parameters (radius, luminosity, and mass) of individual sdBs/sdOs may also be determined spectrophotometrically, that is by a combination of quantitative spectral analysis and spectral energy distribution fitting to appropriate photometric data, provided that the distance (parallax) to the investigated object is precisely known. In the pre-Gaia era this was the case for just a handful of hot subdwarf stars. This has changed with the second Gaia data release, providing both the astrometry and the photometry for a large number of sdBs/sdOs. Now, no longer the parallax is the limiting factor for the spectrophotometric approach, but rather precise surface gravity determinations from quantitative spectral analyses are needed. We selected a sample of more than 50 bright and nearby hot subdwarfs of all spectral types (sdBs, sdOBs, He-poor and He-rich sdOs) and configurations (single and binary stars), for which reliable Gaia parallaxes, high-quality optical and near-infrared spectra as well as appropriate data from various different photometric systems are available. We focus on accurate quantitative spectral analyses, in particular on the determination of systematic uncertainties for effective temperatures and surface gravities. To achieve this, we use three different model approaches: local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE), hybrid LTE/non-LTE (NLTE), and NLTE. In addition, two different analysis strategies round off the systematic analysis. The precise atmospheric parameters allow us to derive the radius, luminosity, and mass distribution for our sample and to compare them to the ones predicted from the main formation channels of hot subdwarf stars.

description: The inclusive production of charmonium mesons in B meson decay has been studied in a 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ data set collected by the BaBar experiment operating at the $Υ(4S)$ resonance. Branching fractions have been measured for the inclusive production of the charmonium mesons $J/ψ$, $ψ(2S)$, $χ_{c1}$, and $χ_{c2}$. The branching fractions are also presented as a function of the center-of-mass momentum of the mesons and of the helicity of the $J/ψ$.

description: At a very rapid superfluid transition in $^3$He, follows after a reaction with single neutron, the creation of topological defects (vortices) has recently been demonstrated in accordance with the Kibble-Zurek scenario for the cosmological analogue. We discuss here the extension of the Kibble-Zurek scenario to the case when alternative symmetries may be broken and different states nucleated independently. We have calculated the nucleation probability of the various states of superfluid $^3$He during a superfluid transition. Our results can explain the transition from supercooled $A$ phase to the $B$ phase, triggered by nuclear reaction. The new scenario is an alternative to the well-known ``baked Alaska'' scenario.

Hamilton-Jacobi equation for spinning particles near black holes
Creators: name: Witzany, Vojtěch
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A compact stellar-mass object inspiralling onto a massive black hole deviates from geodesic motion due to radiation-reaction forces as well as finite-size effects. Such post-geodesic deviations need to be included with sufficient precision into wave-form models for the upcoming space-based gravitational-wave detector LISA. I present the formulation and solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of geodesics near Kerr black holes perturbed by the so-called spin-curvature coupling, the leading order finite-size effect. In return, this solution allows to compute a number of observables such as the turning points of the orbits as well as the fundamental frequencies of motion. This result provides one of the necessary ingredients for waveform models for LISA and an important contribution useful for the relativistic two-body problem in general.
