description: The HST archival UV imaging polarimetry data of NGC 1068 is re-examined. Through an extensive estimation of the observational errors, we discuss whether the distribution of the position angles (PAs) of polarization is simply centrosymmetric or not. Taking into account the effect of a bad focus at the time of the observation, we conclude that, within the accuracy of HST/FOC polarimetry, the PA distribution is completely centrosymmetric. This means that the UV polarization originates only from scattering of the radiation from a central point-like source. However, our analysis shows that the most probable location of the nucleus is only ~0.''08 (~6pc) south from the brightest cloud called ``cloud B''. The error circle of 99% confidence level extends to cloud B and to ``cloud A'' which is about 0.''2 south of cloud B. By this FOC observation, Cloud B is only marginally rejected as the nucleus. Assuming that the UV flux is dominated by electron-scattered light, we have also derived a three-dimensional structure of the nuclear region. The inferred distribution suggests a linear structure which could be related to the radio jet.

description: A hyperlink is a finite set of non-intersecting simple closed curves in $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^3$. Let $S$ be an orientable surface in $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^3$. The Einstein-Hilbert action $S(e,ω)$ is defined on the vierbein $e$ and a $\mathfrak{su}(2)\times\mathfrak{su}(2)$-valued connection $ω$, which are the dynamical variables in General Relativity. Define a functional $F_S(ω)$, by integrating the curvature $dω+ ω\wedge ω$ over the surface $S$, which is $\mathfrak{su}(2)\times\mathfrak{su}(2)$-valued. We integrate $F_S(ω)$ against a holonomy operator of a hyperlink $L$, disjoint from $S$, and the exponential of the Einstein-Hilbert action, over the space of vierbeins $e$ and $\mathfrak{su}(2)\times\mathfrak{su}(2)$-valued connections $ω$. Using our earlier work done on Chern-Simons path integrals in $\mathbb{R}^3$, we will write this infinite dimensional path integral as the limit of a sequence of Chern-Simons integrals. Our main result shows that the quantized curvature can be computed from the linking number between $L$ and $S$.

description: We present the first results of a survey of random fields with the slitless G141 ($λ_c = 1.5μ, Δλ=0.8μ$) grism on NICMOS. Approximately 64 square arcminutes have been observed at intermediate and high galactic latitudes. The 3$σ$ limiting line and continuum fluxes in each field vary from $7.5 \times 10^{-17}$ to $1 \times 10^{-17} erg/cm^2/sec$ and from H = 20 to 22, respectively. Our median and area weighted $3σ$ limiting line fluxes within a 4 pixel aperture are nearly identical at $4.1 \times 10^{-17} erg/cm^2/sec$ and are 60% deeper than the deepest narrow-band imaging surveys from the ground. We have identified 33 emission-line objects and derive their observed wavelengths, fluxes and equivalent widths. We argue that the most likely line identification is H$α$ and that the redshift range probed is from 0.75 to 1.9. The 2$σ$ rest-frame equivalent width limits range from 9Åto 130Åwith an average of 40Å. The survey probes an effective co-moving volume of $10^5 h_{50}^{-3} Mpc^3$ for $q_0=0.5$. Our derived co-moving number density of emission line galaxies in the range $0.7 < z < 1.9$ is $3.3\times10^{-4} h_{50}^{3} Mpc^{-3}$, very similar to that of the bright Lyman break objects at $z \sim 3$. The objects with detected emission-lines have a median F160W magnitude of 20.4 (Vega scale) and a median H$α$ luminosity of $2.7 \times 10^{42} erg/sec$. The implied star formation rates range from 1 to 324 M_{\odot}/yr, with an average [NII]6583,6548 corrected rate of 21 M_{\odot}/yr for H_0=50 km/s/Mpc and $q_0=0.5$ (34 M_{\odot}/yr for $q_0=0.1$).

Fluctuations of radiative heat exchange between two bodies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We present a theory to describe the fluctuations of nonequilibrium radiative heat transfer between two bodies both in far and near-field regime. As predicted by the blackbody theory, in far field, we show that the variance of radiative heat flux is of the same order of magnitude as its mean value. However, in near-field regime we demonstrate that the presence of surface polaritons makes this variance more than one order of magnitude larger than the mean flux. We further show that the correlation time of heat flux in this regime is comparable to the relaxation time of heat carriers in each medium. This theory could open the way to an experimental investigation of heat exchanges far from the thermal equilibrium condition.

description: Optical spectroscopic data are presented here for quasars from the Molonglo Quasar Sample (MQS), which forms part of a complete survey of 1-Jy radio sources from the Molonglo Reference Catalogue. The combination of low-frequency selection and complete identifications means that the MQS is relatively free from the orientation biases which affect most other quasar samples. To date, the sample includes 105 quasars and 6 BL Lac objects, 106 of which have now been confirmed spectroscopically. This paper presents a homogenous set of low-resolution optical spectra for 79 MQS quasars, the majority of which have been obtained at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. Full observational details are given and redshifts, continuum and emission-line data tabulated for all confirmed quasars.

description: Event cameras are bio-inspired vision sensors that naturally capture the dynamics of a scene, filtering out redundant information. This paper presents a deep neural network approach that unlocks the potential of event cameras on a challenging motion-estimation task: prediction of a vehicle's steering angle. To make the best out of this sensor-algorithm combination, we adapt state-of-the-art convolutional architectures to the output of event sensors and extensively evaluate the performance of our approach on a publicly available large scale event-camera dataset (~1000 km). We present qualitative and quantitative explanations of why event cameras allow robust steering prediction even in cases where traditional cameras fail, e.g. challenging illumination conditions and fast motion. Finally, we demonstrate the advantages of leveraging transfer learning from traditional to event-based vision, and show that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms based on standard cameras.

description: In this document we study the uniform local path connectivity of sets of $m$-tuples of pairwise commuting normal matrices with some additional constraints. More specifically, given given $\varepsilon>0$, a fixed metric $ð$ in ${M_n(\mathbb{C})}^m$ induced by the operator norm $\|\cdot\|$, any collection of $r$ non-constant multivariable polynomials $p_1(x_1,\ldots,x_m),\ldots,p_r(x_1,\ldots,x_m)$ over $\mathbb{C}$ with finite zero set $\mathbf{Z}(p_1,\ldots,p_r)\subset \mathbb{C}^m$, and any $m$-tuple $\mathbf{X}=(X_1,\ldots,X_m)$ in the set $\mathbb{ZD}_n^m(p_1,\ldots,p_r)\subseteq M_n^m(\mathbb{C})$, of pairwise commuting normal matrix contractions such that, $\|p_j(Y_1,\ldots,Y_m)\|=0$ for each $(Y_1,\ldots,Y_m)\in \mathbb{ZD}_n^m(p_1,\ldots,p_r)$ and each $1\leq j\leq r$. We prove the existence of paths between arbitrary $m$-tuples, that lie in the intersection of $\mathbb{ZD}_n^m(p_1,\ldots,p_r)$, and the $δ$-ball $B_ð(\mathbf{X},δ)$ centered at $\mathbf{X}$ for some $δ>0$, with respect to $ð$. Two of the key features of these matrix paths is that $δ$ can be chosen independent of $n$, and that they are contained in the intersection of $B_ð(\mathbf{X},\varepsilon)$ and $\mathbb{ZD}_n^m(p_1,\ldots,p_r)$. Some connections with the approximation theory for matrix functions of several matrix variables, are studied as well.

description: An increasing body of evidence suggests that the trial-to-trial variability of spiking activity in the brain is not mere noise, but rather the reflection of a sampling-based encoding scheme for probabilistic computing. Since the precise statistical properties of neural activity are important in this context, many models assume an ad-hoc source of well-behaved, explicit noise, either on the input or on the output side of single neuron dynamics, most often assuming an independent Poisson process in either case. However, these assumptions are somewhat problematic: neighboring neurons tend to share receptive fields, rendering both their input and their output correlated; at the same time, neurons are known to behave largely deterministically, as a function of their membrane potential and conductance. We suggest that spiking neural networks may, in fact, have no need for noise to perform sampling-based Bayesian inference. We study analytically the effect of auto- and cross-correlations in functionally Bayesian spiking networks and demonstrate how their effect translates to synaptic interaction strengths, rendering them controllable through synaptic plasticity. This allows even small ensembles of interconnected deterministic spiking networks to simultaneously and co-dependently shape their output activity through learning, enabling them to perform complex Bayesian computation without any need for noise, which we demonstrate in silico, both in classical simulation and in neuromorphic emulation. These results close a gap between the abstract models and the biology of functionally Bayesian spiking networks, effectively reducing the architectural constraints imposed on physical neural substrates required to perform probabilistic computing, be they biological or artificial.

Suppressing epidemic spreading by risk-averse migration in dynamical networks

description: In this paper, we study the interplay between individual behaviors and epidemic spreading in a dynamical network. We distribute agents on a square-shaped region with periodic boundary conditions. Every agent is regarded as a node of the network and a wireless link is established between two agents if their geographical distance is less than a certain radius. At each time, every agent assesses the epidemic situation and make decisions on whether it should stay in or leave its current place. An agent will leave its current place with a speed if the number of infected neighbors reaches or exceeds a critical value $E$. Owing to the movement of agents, the network's structure is dynamical. Interestingly, we find that there exists an optimal value of $E$ leading to the maximum epidemic threshold. This means that epidemic spreading can be effectively controlled by risk-averse migration. Besides, we find that the epidemic threshold increases as the recovering rate increases, decreases as the contact radius increases, and is maximized by an optimal moving speed. Our findings offer a deeper understanding of epidemic spreading in dynamical networks.

description: High-throughput sequencing was used to elucidate the microbial community of strong-flavor Daqu (SFD) (surface and central parts) produced in different Chinese regions, moisture and other six kinds of quality indicators of SFD were detected. In addition, Spearman correlation coefficient was used to identify the relationships between microbial community and quality indicators. In different sample groups of surface and central parts, the differential fungal genus was Alternaria, whereas differential bacteria genera were Weissella, Pediococcus and Leuconostoc. Spearman analysis showed that fungal genera Rhizopus, Stemphylium, and Alternaria were significantly positively correlated with saccharifying ability (p < .01), whereas Rasamsonia was significantly positively correlated with esterification ability (p < .01). Weissella, Pediococcus and Burkholderia were the bacterial genera significantly positively correlated with saccharification ability of SFD samples (p < .01). This study provides a reference for investigating the relationship between microbial community and quality indicators of SFD.

description: We present results from a dynamical study of the high redshift, massive, X-ray luminous galaxy cluster MS1054--03. We significantly increase the number of confirmed cluster members by adding 20 to an existing set of twelve; using the confirmed members, we estimate MS1054--03's redshift, velocity dispersion, and mass. We find that z=0.8329 +/- 0.0017, sigma = 1170 +/- 150 km/s, and the central mass is approximately 1.9 +/- 0.5 x 10^{15} h^{-1} M_{odot} (within R=1 h^{-1} Mpc; H_0 =100h km s^{-1} Mpc^{-1}, q_0=0.5). MS1054--03 is one of a handful of high redshift (z>0.5) clusters known that also has X-ray and weak-lensing observations (Donahue et al. 1998; Luppino & Kaiser 1997); we find our dynamical mass agrees with mass estimates from both studies. The confirmation of MS1054--03 as a massive cluster at z~0.8 is consistent with an open (Omega_M~0.3) or flat, Lambda-dominated (Omega_M+Omega_{Lambda}=1) universe. In addition, we compare MS1054--03's velocity dispersion and X-ray temperature to a sample of low and intermediate redshift galaxy clusters to test for evolution in the sigma - T_x relation; we find no evidence for evolution in this relation to z~0.8.

description: We experimentally optimize mixing of a turbulent round jet using machine learning control (MLC) following Li et al (2017). The jet is manipulated with one unsteady minijet blowing in wall-normal direction close to the nozzle exit. The flow is monitored with two hotwire sensors. The first sensor is positioned on the centerline 5 jet diameters downstream of the nozzle exit, i.e. the end of the potential core, while the second is located 3 jet diameters downstream and displaced towards the shear-layer. The mixing performance is monitored with mean velocity at the first sensor. A reduction of this velocity correlates with increased entrainment near the potential core. Machine Learning Control (MLC) is employed to optimize sensor feedback, a general open-loop broadband frequency actuation and combinations of both. MLC has identified the optimal periodic forcing with a small duty cycle as the best control policy employing only 400 actuation measurements, each lasting for 5 seconds. This learning rate is comparable if not faster than typical optimization of periodic forcing with two free parameters (frequency and duty cycle). In addition, MLC results indicate that neither new frequencies nor sensor feedback improves mixing further-contrary to many of other turbulence control experiments. The optimality of pure periodic actuation may be attributed to the simple jet flapping mechanism in the minijet plane. The performance of sensor feedback is shown to face a challenge for small duty cycles. The jet mixing results demonstrate the untapped potential of MLC in quickly learning optimal general control policies, even deciding between open- and closed-loop control.

description: Objectives: During the past 2 decades, there have been large increases in mean horsepower and the mean horsepower-to–vehicle weight ratio for all types of new passenger vehicles in the United States. This study examined the relationship between travel speeds and vehicle power, defined as horsepower per 100 pounds of vehicle weight. Methods: Speed cameras measured travel speeds and photographed license plates and drivers of passenger vehicles traveling on roadways in Northern Virginia during daytime off-peak hours in spring 2013. The driver licensing agencies in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia provided vehicle information numbers (VINs) by matching license plate numbers with vehicle registration records and provided the age, gender, and ZIP code of the registered owner(s). VINs were decoded to obtain the curb weight and horsepower of vehicles. The study focused on 26,659 observed vehicles for which information on horsepower was available and the observed age and gender of drivers matched vehicle registration records. Log-linear regression estimated the effects of vehicle power on mean travel speeds, and logistic regression estimated the effects of vehicle power on the likelihood of a vehicle traveling over the speed limit and more than 10 mph over the limit. Results: After controlling for driver characteristics, speed limit, vehicle type, and traffic volume, a 1-unit increase in vehicle power was associated with a 0.7% increase in mean speed, a 2.7% increase in the likelihood of a vehicle exceeding the speed limit by any amount, and an 11.6% increase in the likelihood of a vehicle exceeding the limit by 10 mph. All of these increases were highly significant. Conclusions: Speeding persists as a major factor in crashes in the United States. There are indications that travel speeds have increased in recent years. The current findings suggest the trend toward substantially more powerful vehicles may be contributing to higher speeds. Given the strong association between travel speed and crash risk and crash severity, this is cause for concern.

More specifically we compute the number counts of clusters of galaxies, Log $N$ -- Log $S$ relation, in X-ray and submm bands on the basis of the Press--Schechter theory. As an important step toward breaking the degeneracy among the viable cosmological models, we observed the most luminous X-ray cluster RXJ1347-1145 in three bands (21 and 43 GHz in the Nobeyama Radio Observatory, Japan, and 350 GHz in the J. C. Maxwell telescope at Mauna Kea, Hawaii). We report on the preliminary results which are in good agreement with the profile of the Sunayev -- Zel'dovich effect predicted on the basis of the previous X-ray observation of the cluster.

description: Comparisons are presented between a hybrid Vlasov-Maxwell (HVM) simulation of turbulence in a collisionless plasma and fluid reductions. These include Hall-magnetohydrodynamics (HMHD) and Landau fluid (LF) or FLR-Landau fluid (FLR-LF) models that retain pressure anisotropy and low-frequency kinetic effects such as Landau damping and, for the last model, finite Larmor radius (FLR) corrections. The problem is considered in two space dimensions, when initial conditions involve moderate-amplitude perturbations of a homogeneous equilibrium plasma subject to an out-of-plane magnetic field. LF turns out to provide an accurate description of the velocity field up to the ion Larmor radius scale, and even to smaller scales for the magnetic field. Compressibility nevertheless appears significantly larger at the sub-ion scales in the fluid models than in the HVM simulation. High frequency kinetic effects, such as cyclotron resonances, not retained by fluid descriptions, could be at the origin of this discrepancy. A significant temperature anisotropy is generated, with a bias towards the perpendicular component, the more intense fluctuations being rather spread out and located in a broad vicinity of current sheets. Non-gyrotropic pressure tensor components are measured and their fluctuations are shown to reach a significant fraction of the total pressure fluctuation, with intense regions closely correlated with current sheets.

description:  Computational design, the application of algorithms in the design process, was first adopted by designers to find optimal solutions and new artistic expression. In the last ten years, generative decision-aiding tools have matured from research hypotheses to wide use in practice. Contrary to traditional design processes, the use of intelligent systems relies on embedded mathematical and theoretical biological models that cannot be manually computed. There is a large body of research that argues that computational design is a superior process that generates innovative design solutions.

description: We study a new class of matrix models, formulated on a lattice. On each site are $N$ states with random energies governed by a Gaussian random matrix Hamiltonian. The states on different sites are coupled randomly. We calculate the density of and correlation between the eigenvalues of the total Hamiltonian in the large $N$ limit. We find that this correlation exhibits the same type of universal behavior we discovered recently. Several derivations of this result are given. This class of random matrices allows us to model the transition between the ''localized" and ''extended" regimes within the limited context of random matrix theory.

Ultrafast infrared spectroscopy with single molecular ions

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a method to investigate the vibrational dynamics of single polyatomic molecular ions confined in a Paul trap. Quantum logic techniques are employed to detect the recoil of single photon absorption events in the molecule via a co-trapped atomic ion. In particular, the recoil is mapped onto the electronic state of the atom which can be read out with high fidelity. This recoil detection serves as the basis for a pump-probe scheme to investigate ultrafast molecular dynamics, such as intra-molecular vibrational redistribution. The total recoil from the interaction with a sequence of ultrafast laser pulses with the molecular vibration is measured. This work discusses the experimental requirements and expected performance for multiple molecular ions with masses ranging from 17 to 165 Dalton.

description: We report on the detection of the Sunyaev -- Zel'dovich (SZ) signals toward the most luminous X-ray cluster RXJ1347-1145 at Nobeyama Radio Observatory (21 and 43 GHz) and at James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (350 GHz). In particular the latter is the first successful detection of the SZ temperature increment in the submillimeter band which resolved the profile of a cluster of galaxies. Both the observed spectral dependence and the radial profile of the SZ signals are fully consistent with those expected from the X-ray observation of the cluster. The combined analysis of 21GHz and 350GHz data reproduces the temperature and core-radius of the cluster determined with the ROSAT and ASCA satellites when we adopt the slope of the density profile from the X-ray observations. Therefore our present data provide the strongest and most convincing case for the detection of the submillimeter SZ signal from the cluster, as well as in the Rayleigh -- Jeans regime. We also discuss briefly the cosmological implications of the present results.

Coherent states for ladder operators of general order related to exceptional orthogonal polynomials

description: We construct the coherent states of general order, $m$ for the ladder operators, $c(m)$ and $c^\dagger(m)$, which act on rational deformations of the harmonic oscillator. The position wavefunctions of the eigenvectors involve type III Hermite exceptional orthogonal polynomials. We plot energy expectations, time-dependent position probability densities for the coherent states and for the even and odd cat states, Wigner functions, and Heisenberg uncertainty relations. We find generally non-classical behaviour, with one exception: there is a regime of large magnitude of the coherent state parameter, $z$, where the otherwise indistinct position probability density separates into $m+1$ distinct wavepackets oscillating and colliding in the potential, forming interference fringes when they collide. The Mandel $Q$ parameter is calculated to find sub-Poissonian statistics, another indicator of non-classical behaviour. We plot the position standard deviation and find squeezing in many of the cases. We calculate the two-photon-number probability density for the output state when the $m=4$, $μ=-5$ coherent states (where $μ$ labels the lowest weight in the superposition) are placed on one arm of a beamsplitter. We find that it does not factorize, again indicating non-classical behaviour. Calculation of the linear entropy for this beamsplitter output state shows significant entanglement, another non-classical feature. We also construct linearized versions, $\tilde c(m)$, of the annihilation operators and their coherent states and calculate the same properties that we investigate for the coherent states. For these we find similar behaviour to the $c(m)$ coherent states, at much smaller magnitudes of $z$, but comparable average energies.

description: We present a generalization of the Li, Nunes and Vanderbilt density-matrix method to the case of a non-orthogonal set of basis functions. A representation of the real-space density matrix is chosen in such a way that only the overlap matrix, and not its inverse, appears in the energy functional. The generalized energy functional is shown to be variational with respect to the elements of the density matrix, which typically remains well localized.

A survey of the HCN J=1-0 hyperfine lines towards class 0 and I sources

description: The HCN 1-0 hyperfine lines have been observed toward 24 young stellar objects (YSOs) of class 0 and I. We examined how their line shapes and velocity shifts vary along with their relative optical depths and compared them with those of CS 2-1, H2CO 2(12)-1(11), and HCO+ 4-3 & 3-2 transitions previously observed by Mardones et al. (1997) and Gregersen et al. (1997). It is found that all these molecular species do not always exhibit the same sense of line asymmetry and the correlation of velocity shift is better between HCN and CS than between HCN and H2CO. The most opaque transition of HCN F=2-1 has about the same velocity shift as that of CS despite of the larger beam size of this study, which suggests that HCN F=2-1 line may be more sensitive to the internal motion of YSOs than CS line. Systematic changes of the velocity shift are noted for many sources, as one goes from F=0-1 to 2-1. The monotonic decrease of velocity (blue shift) is apparently more frequent. A detailed model of radiative transfer allowing line overlap of HCN is employed to L483 which shows convincing signatures of infall on a scale of 0.1 pc. It appears that the observed line is not compatible with the standard Shu (1977) model, but is fitted with augmentations of density and infall velocity, by factors of 6 and 0.5, respectively, and with an inclusion of a diffuse, static, turbulent, and geometrically thick envelope.

description: In blind quantum computation (BQC), a client delegates her quantum computation to a server with universal quantum computers who learns nothing about the client's private information. In measurement-based BQC model, entangled states are generally used to realize quantum computing. However, to generate a large-scale entangled state in experiment becomes a challenge issue. In circuit-based BQC model, single-qubit gates can be realized precisely, but entangled gates are probabilistically successful. This remains a challenge to realize entangled gates with a deterministic method in some systems. To solve above two problems, we propose the first hybrid universal BQC protocol based on measurements and circuits, where the client prepares single-qubit states and the server performs universal quantum computing. We analyze and prove the correctness, blindness and verifiability of the proposed protocol.

description: In previous studies of spatial public goods game, each player is able to establish a group. However, in real life, some players cannot successfully organize groups for various reasons. In this paper, we propose a mechanism of reputation-driven group formation, in which groups can only be organized by players whose reputation reaches or exceeds a threshold. We define a player's reputation as the frequency of cooperation in the last $T$ time steps. We find that the highest cooperation level can be obtained when groups are only established by pure cooperators who always cooperate in the last $T$ time steps. Effects of the memory length $T$ on cooperation are also studied.
