Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Double parton scattering is investigated in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV where the final state includes a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, and two jets. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5 inverse femtobarns, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Observables sensitive to double parton scattering are investigated after being corrected for detector effects and selection efficiencies. The fraction of W + 2-jet events due to double parton scattering is measured to be 0.055 +/- 0.002 (stat.) +/- 0.014 (syst.). The effective cross section, sigma[eff], characterizing the effective transverse area of hard partonic interactions in collisions between protons is measured to be 20.7 +/- 0.8 (stat.) +/- 6.6 (syst.) mb.

description: A central object in the computational studies of rare events is the committor function. Though costly to compute, the committor function encodes complete mechanistic information of the processes involving rare events, including reaction rates and transition-state ensembles. Under the framework of transition path theory (TPT), recent work [1] proposes an algorithm where a feedback loop couples a neural network that models the committor function with importance sampling, mainly umbrella sampling, which collects data needed for adaptive training. In this work, we show additional modifications are needed to improve the accuracy of the algorithm. The first modification adds elements of supervised learning, which allows the neural network to improve its prediction by fitting to sample-mean estimates of committor values obtained from short molecular dynamics trajectories. The second modification replaces the committor-based umbrella sampling with the finite-temperature string (FTS) method, which enables homogeneous sampling in regions where transition pathways are located. We test our modifications on low-dimensional systems with non-convex potential energy where reference solutions can be found via analytical or the finite element methods, and show how combining supervised learning and the FTS method yields accurate computation of committor functions and reaction rates. We also provide an error analysis for algorithms that use the FTS method, using which reaction rates can be accurately estimated during training with a small number of samples. The methods are then applied to a molecular system in which no reference solution is known, where accurate computations of committor functions and reaction rates can still be obtained.

Implementation Policies and Procedures: Phase I TMDLs for Toxic Pollutants in the Delaware River Estuary: Basis and Background Document
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Delaware River Basin Commission
Year: 1995

description: This document contains the recommended policies and procedures for establishing wasteload allocations and effluent limitations for toxic pollutants which will be uniformly applied to all National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) discharges to the estuary. These policies and procedures along with water quality criteria developed for the Delaware River Estuary are the essential components of a management strategy to control the release of substances toxic to humans and aquatic life. The strategy utilizes a phased approach based upon the principle that a waterbody can assimilate a maximum daily loading of a toxic pollutant which still assures that water quality criteria for the pollutant are not exceeded. This loading is called the Total Maximum Daily Load or TMDL. The approach is phased such that loadings from point sources are the focus of Phase 1 with loadings from both point and non-point sources being considered in later phases.

Year: 2003

description: This final report of the New Jersey Comparative Risk Project summarizes a four-year effort to evaluate the impacts of New Jersey's environmental problems. The magnitude of these impacts is compared using a ranking system. Seventy-three experts analyzed and ranked 88 chemical, physical and biological factors ('stressors') according to their relative impacts on human health, ecological quality and socioeconomic conditions. The report provides 178 detailed analyses of stressors from acid precipitation and benzene to West Nile Virus and zinc. Its findings indicate that the conversion of undeveloped land poses the top ecological and socioeconomic risk to New Jersey's environment and people. Indoor pollution and outdoor air pollution pose major health and socioeconomic risks, and invasive species pose serious ecological threats to several New Jersey ecosystems.

description: Assuming the existence of the dS/CFT correspondence, we construct local scalar fields with $m^2>\left( \frac{d}{2} \right)^2$ in de Sitter space by smearing over conformal field theory operators on the future/past boundary. To maintain bulk micro-causality and recover the bulk Wightman function in the Euclidean vacuum, the smearing prescription must involve two sets of single--trace operators with dimensions $Δ$ and $d-Δ$. Thus the local operator prescription in de Sitter space differs from the analytic continuation from the prescription in anti--de Sitter space. Pushing a local operator in the global patch to future/past infinity is shown to lead to an operator relation between single--trace operators in conformal field theories at $\mathcal{I}^\pm$, which can be interpreted as a basis transformation, also identified as the relation between an operator in CFT and its shadow operator. Construction of spin$-s$ gauge field operators is discussed, it is shown that the construction of higher spin gauge fields in de Sitter space is equivalent to constructing scalar fields with specific values of mass parameter $m^2

description: A methanolic extract of Morella salicifolia bark was fractionated by various chromatographic techniques yielding six previously unknown cyclic diarylheptanoids, namely, 7-hydroxymyricanol 5-O--d-glucopyranoside (1), juglanin B 3-O--d-glucopyranoside (2), 16-hydroxyjuglanin B 17-O--d-glucopyranoside (3), myricanone 5-O--d-gluco-pranosyl-(16)--d-glucopyranoside (4), neomyricanone 5-O--d-glucopranosyl-(16)--d-glucopyranoside (5), and myricanone 17-O--l-arabino-furanosyl-(16)--d-glucopyranoside (6), respectively, together with 10 known cyclic diarylheptanoids. The structural diversity of the diarylheptanoid pattern in M. salicifolia resulted from varying glycosidation at C-3, C-5, and C-17 as well as from substitution at C-11 with hydroxy, carbonyl or sulfate groups, respectively. Structure elucidation of the isolated compounds was achieved on the basis of one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) as well as high-resolution electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS) analyses. The absolute configuration of the glycosides was confirmed after hydrolysis and synthesis of O-(S)-methyl butyrated (SMB) sugar derivatives by comparison of their 1H-NMR data with those of reference sugars. Additionally, absolute configuration of diarylheptanoid aglycones at C-11 was determined by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra simulation and comparison with experimental CD spectra after hydrolysis.

description: High order correlations in the cosmic matter density have become increasingly valuable in cosmological analyses. However, computing such correlation functions is computationally expensive. We aim to circumvent these challenges by designing a new method of estimating correlation functions. This is realized in ConKer, an algorithm that performs FFT convolutions of matter distributions with spherical kernels. ConKer is applied to the CMASS sample of the SDSS DR12 galaxy survey and used to compute the isotropic correlation up to correlation order n = 5. We also compare the n = 2 and n = 3 cases to traditional algorithms to verify the accuracy of the new method. We perform a timing study of the algorithm and find that two of the three components of the algorithm are independent of the catalog size, N, while one component is O(N), which starts dominating for catalogs larger than 10M objects. For n < 5 the dominant calculation is O(N^(4/3logN)), where N is the number of the grid cells. For higher n, the execution time is expected to be dominated by a component with time complexity O(N^((n+2)/3)). We find ConKer to be a fast and accurate method of probing high order correlations in the cosmic matter density.

Publisher: name: Delaware River Basin Commission
Year: 2001

description: This report presents findings of a June through August 1999 water-quality survey of the Delaware River and tributaries located between the Delaware Water Gap and Trenton, NJ. Thesurvey included three bacteria sampling events and one water-quality survey. The study area included 74 sampling locations at tributaries, bridges, and access areas along 75 miles of the Delaware River. Purposes of the survey were: 1) to assess water-quality; 2) to compare bacterial quality to the 1987 survey (DRBC 1988); and 3) to provide a basis for water-quality management plans that will maintain and enhance water-quality and designated uses. The survey was designed to support the Lower Delaware River Management Plan; improve the data record necessary for 305(b) assessments; and extend DRBC's monitoring efforts to cover the entire non-tidal river.

description: Chromite ore processing residue occurs at over 130 sites in Hudson County, New Jersey. Many of these sites are in urban residential areas. This waste is a result of 70 years of chromate and bichromate chemical manufacturing. At least 15% of the sites contain total chromium concentrations greater than 10,000 mg/kg, with hexavalent content ranging from about 1 to 50%. Continuing leaching of this waste results in yellow-colored surface water runoff and yellow deposits on the soil surface and inside basement walls. This document describes the chemistry, environmental fate, health effects, and human exposure potentials for chromium waste.

description: This report comprises the results of the third year of Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) sampling in NJ. Currently, the Bureau of Freshwater and Biological Monitoring (BFBM), within the Water Monitoring and Standards program, monitors benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages (insects, worms, clams, etc.) at over 800 stream stations throughout NJ. In order to assess environmental conditions on a larger spatial and temporal scale, BFBM began to supplement benthic macroinvertebrate monitoring with an IBI during summer 2000. The data will help to measure water quality use attainment and the Department's success in attaining the Clean Water Act goal of "fishable" waters as elaborated in the NJ Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report. IBI data will also be used to develop biological criteria, prioritize sites for further studies, provide biological impact assessments, and assess status and trends of the state's freshwater fish assemblages. In 2002, 16 of the 20 planned sites were sampled before the drought forced an early conclusion to the sampling season. Two sites were rated 'excellent', eight were 'good', five were 'fair' and one was 'poor'. The Elizabeth River at North Avenue (FIBI042) is the first IBI site to receive a poor rating.

description: Granular impact -- the dynamic intrusion of solid objects into granular media -- is widespread across scientific and engineering applications including geotechnics. Existing approaches for simulating granular impact dynamics have relied on either a pure discrete method or a pure continuum method. Neither of these methods, however, is deemed optimal from the computational perspective. Here, we introduce a hybrid continuum-discrete approach, built on the coupled material-point and discrete-element method (MP-DEM), for simulating granular impact dynamics with unparalleled efficiency. To accommodate highly complex solid-granular interactions, we enhance the existing MP-DEM formulation with three new ingredients: (i) a robust contact algorithm that couples the continuum and discrete parts without any interpenetration under extreme impact loads, (ii) large deformation kinematics employing multiplicative elastoplasticity, and (iii) a trans-phase constitutive relation capturing gasification of granular media. For validation, we also generate experimental data through laboratory measurement of the impact dynamics of solid spheres dropped onto dry sand. Simulation of the experiments shows that the proposed approach can well reproduce granular impact dynamics in terms of impact forces, intrusion depths, and splash patterns. Further, through parameter studies on material properties, model formulations, and numerical schemes, we identify key factors for successful continuum-discrete simulation of granular impact dynamics.

description: We present an alternative to Topologically Massive Gravity (TMG) with the same "minimal" bulk properties; i.e. a single local degree of freedom that is realized as a massive graviton in linearization about an anti-de Sitter (AdS) vacuum. However, in contrast to TMG, the new "minimal massive gravity" has both a positive energy graviton and positive central charges for the asymptotic AdS-boundary conformal algebra.

description: Timing plays a crucial role in the context of information security investments: We regard timing in two dimensions, namely the time of announcement in relation to the time of investment and the time of announcement in relation to the time of a fundamental security incident. The financial value of information security investments is assessed by examining the relationship between the investment announcements and their stock market reaction focusing on the two time dimensions. Using an event study methodology, we found that both dimensions influence the stock market return of the investing organization. In particular: (1) after fundamental security incidents in a given industry, the stock price will react more positively to a firm’s announcement of actual information security investments than to announcements of the intention to invest; (2) the stock price will react more positively to a firm’s announcements of the intention to invest after the fundamental security incident compared to before; and (3) the stock price will react more positively to a firm’s announcements of actual information security investments after the fundamental security incident compared to before. Overall, the lowest abnormal return can be expected when the intention to invest is announced before a fundamental information security incident and the highest return when actual investing after a fundamental information security incident in the respective industry.

description: In this paper, we deal with the boundary controllability of a one-dimensional degenerate and singular wave equation with degeneracy and singularity occurring at the boundary of the spatial domain. Exact boundary controllability is proved in the range of subcritical/critical potentials and for sufficiently large time, through a boundary controller acting away from the degenerate/singular point. By duality argument, we reduce the problem to an observability estimate for the corresponding adjoint system, which is proved by means of the multiplier method and a new special Hardy-type inequality.

The analysis of the dark matter signal is not validated, if the unitarity condition is violated. It is shown that the current LHC analysis the effective theory breaks down, at least, when the dark matter is lighter than O(100) GeV. Future prospects for $\sqrt{s}$ = 14 TeV are also discussed. The result is independent of physics in high energy scales.

description: This is an annual report of the New Jersey Pinelands Commission for the year 2003. Among some of the major accomplishements in 2003 was the Third Review of the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP) that was completed and, with that, the Commission issued a set of ambitious recommendations for building upon the many successes of the CMP. The Commission thereafter began the work of implementation, including pursuing a sub-regional conservation plan in the Toms River Basin of Ocean County. As a direct result of the Third Plan Review, the Pinelands Commission authorized the creation of a Housing Task Force to develop up-to-date, long-term housing demand projections for the 24 Pinelands Regional Growth Area communities. 2003 also marked a major milestone in efforts to better manage and protect the nearly 18-trillion gallon Kirkwood-Cohansey Aquifer.

description: The formation of solid solution series Cs(1-x)M(x)GaQ(2)-mC64 (M = K, Rb; Q = S, Se; x = 0-1) was studied by X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic methods, revealing a complete miscibility of CsGaQ(2)-mC64 with RbGaQ(2) and KGaSe2, and a large miscibility gap with KGaS2. All solid solution members exhibit similar Raman spectra, indicating the covalent Ga-Q bonding character. The similar optical band gaps likewise further contribute to this conclusion. Up to a certain degree of substitution, these solid solutions undergo a phase transition similar to CsGaQ(2)-mC64. The influence of the substitution parameter x on phase transition process was investigated in situ using high-temperature X-ray powder diffraction experiments. Phase-pure solid solutions of the high-temperature polymorphs Cs(1-x)M(x)GaQ(2)-mC16 were obtained up to x(max)(K) = 0.1 and x(max)(Rb) = 0.3. The crystal structures of these new CsGaQ(2)-mC16 analogous high-temperature phases were refined from synchrotron diffraction data by Rietveld-refinement.

description: Adapting the recent argument of Aizenman, Duminil-Copin and Sidoravicius for the classical Ising model, it is shown here that the magnetization in the transverse-field Ising model vanishes at the critical point. The proof applies to the ground state in dimension $d\geq2$ and to positive-temperature states in dimension $d\geq 3$, and relies on graphical representations as well as an infrared bound.

description: In this paper we search for distant massive companions to known transiting gas giant planets that may have influenced the dynamical evolution of these systems. We present new radial velocity observations for a sample of 51 planets obtained using the Keck HIRES instrument, and find statistically significant accelerations in fifteen systems. Six of these systems have no previously reported accelerations in the published literature: HAT-P-10, HAT-P-22, HAT-P-29, HAT-P-32, WASP-10, and XO-2. We combine our radial velocity fits with Keck NIRC2 adaptive optics (AO) imaging data to place constraints on the allowed masses and orbital periods of the companions responsible for the detected accelerations. The estimated masses of the companions range between 1-500 M_Jup, with orbital semi-major axes typically between 1-75 AU. A significant majority of the companions detected by our survey are constrained to have minimum masses comparable to or larger than those of the transiting planets in these systems, making them candidates for influencing the orbital evolution of the inner gas giant. We estimate a total occurrence rate of 51 +/- 10% for companions with masses between 1-13 M_Jup and orbital semi-major axes between 1-20 AU in our sample. We find no statistically significant difference between the frequency of companions to transiting planets with misaligned or eccentric orbits and those with well-aligned, circular orbits. We combine our expanded sample of radial velocity measurements with constraints from transit and secondary eclipse observations to provide improved measurements of the physical and orbital characteristics of all of the planets included in our survey.

description: It is shown that the Wahlquist metric, which is a stationary, axially symmetric perfect fluid solution with $ρ+3p=\text{const.}$, admits a rank-2 generalized closed conformal Killing-Yano tensor with a skew-symmetric torsion. Taking advantage of the presence of such a tensor, we obtain a higher-dimensional generalization of the Wahlquist metric in arbitrary dimensions, including a family of vacuum black hole solutions with spherical horizon topology such as Schwarzschild-Tangherlini, Myers-Perry and higher-dimensional Kerr-NUT-(A)dS metrics and a family of static, spherically symmetric perfect fluid solutions in higher dimensions.

description: As consumers are increasingly utilising social network and media platforms for pre-purchase information, managers are confronted with producing effective social network and media platform (SNMP) messages that can favourably influence buyers’ attitudes and behavioural intentions towards brands and products. To ensure a thorough investigation of this research realm, and to develop awareness of the factors influencing the effectiveness of social media marketing, this study adopted a mixed methods approach involving a combination of both qualitative and quantitative research. An exploratory sequential research design was followed, starting with an in-depth, elite interview investigation with social media marketing experts. Adopting a thematic analysis approach, this study contributes to knowledge by identifying three overriding themes of interactivity, credibility, and infotainment as the key determinants of how social media marketing can enhance brand performance. Attitude theory and the hierarchy-of-effects theory is utilised to support understanding and explain the decision making of social media users in this context. This thesis also contributes to social media marketing knowledge by providing a comprehensive study of the key factors that create effective SNMP messages. This was achieved through analysis of data collected using a questionnaire that was completed by a sample of SNMP users. Analysis was undertaken using Structured Equation Modelling which tests the hypotheses and confirms the importance of the key identified themes on the users’ attitudes, word of mouth and purchase intentions. Uses and Gratification theory is used to comprehend and explain user needs for using SNMPs. Overall, this study provides managers with a thorough explanation of the effects of the identified core themes on SNMP user attitudes, behaviours and intentions. Implications for social media marketing theory and practice are presented based upon the depth and breadth of knowledge attained from the analysis of the expert interviews and the SNMP user survey data.

description: In this work, we describe the synthesis, characterization, and self-assembly properties of a new tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)–triglycyl low-molecular-weight (LMW) gelator. Supramolecular organogels were obtained in various solvents via a heating–cooling cycle. Critical gelation concentrations (CGC) (range ≈ 5–50 g/L) and thermal gel-to-sol transition temperatures (Tgel) (range ≈ 36–51 °C) were determined for each gel. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy suggested that the gelator is also aggregated in its solid state via a similar hydrogen-bonding pattern. The fibrillar microstructure and viscoelastic properties of selected gels were demonstrated by means of field-emission electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and rheological measurements. As expected, exposure of a model xerogel to I2 vapor caused the oxidation of the TTF unit as confirmed by UV-vis-NIR analysis. However, FT-IR spectroscopy showed that the oxidation was accompanied with concurrent alteration of the hydrogen-bonded network.
Growth-induced breaking and unbreaking of ergodicity in fully-connected spin systems

description: Two canonical models of statistical mechanics, the fully-connected voter and Glauber-Ising models, are modified to incorporate growth via the addition or replication of spins. The resulting behaviour is examined in a regime where the timescale of expansion cannot be separated from that of the internal dynamics. Depending on the model specification, growth radically alters the long-time dynamical behaviour by breaking or unbreaking ergodicity.

description: Implementing nonlocal unitary operators is an important and hard question in quantum computing and cryptography. We show that any bipartite nonlocal unitary operator of Schmidt rank three on the $(d_A \times d_B)$-dimensional system is locally equivalent to a controlled unitary when $d_A$ is at most three. This operator can be locally implemented assisted by a maximally entangled state of Schmidt rank $r=\min\{d_A^2,d_B\}$. We further show that stochastic-equivalent nonlocal unitary operators are indeed locally equivalent, and propose a sufficient condition on which nonlocal and controlled unitary operators are locally equivalent. We also provide the solution to a special case of a conjecture on the ranks of multipartite quantum states.
