subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: I review the realistic interpretation of several typically quantum phenomena using a heuristic approach that rests on the assumption that the electromagnetic quantum vacuum is a stochastic field. I include the particle behaviour of light, the photoelectric effect, the hdrogen atom, the Casimir effect, and entanglement in the optical tests of Bell inequalities. The stochastic approach might be formally connected with the standard Hilbert space formalism via the Wigner representation of the field.

description: In this paper, we study the properties of two-dimensional lattices in the presence of non-Hermitian disorder. In the context of coupled mode theory, we consider random gain-loss distributions on every waveguide channel (on site disorder). Our work provides a systematic study of the interplay between disorder and non-Hermiticity. In particular, we study the eigenspectrum in the complex frequency plane and we examine the localization properties of the eigenstates, either by the participation ratio or the level spacing, defined in the complex plane. A modified level distribution function vs disorder seems to fit our computational results.

description: The impact of the microlens profiles on the optical adaptative performances of the Harmoni LGSS is analyzed. Starting from measurements of microlens surfaces, an optical model has been developed that allows to get light intensity distribution on the detector. Spots positions are then detected by a weighted center of gravity. The noise associated to this measure is simulated and studied as a function of flux and weighted function. A comparison with ideal lenses is provided which gives the following result: with the microlenses studied in this article, around 1.6 times more photons are needed to get the same precision in the detection of the spot than with ideal ones.

description: We gathered high resolution spectra for an ensemble of 55 bright active and inactive stars using the ARC 3.5 m Telescope Echelle Spectrograph at Apache Point Observatory ($R\approx$31,500). We measured spectroscopic effective temperatures, surface gravities and metallicities for most stars in the sample with SME and MOOG. Our stellar property results are consistent with the photometric effective temperatures from the Gaia DR2 pipeline. We also measured their chromospheric $S$ and $\log R^\prime_\mathrm{HK}$ indices to classify the stars as active or inactive and study the connection between chromospheric activity and starspots. We then attempted to infer the starspot covering fractions on the active stars by modeling their spectra as a linear combination of hot and cool inactive stellar spectral templates. We find that it is critical to use precise colors of the stars to place stringent priors on the plausible spot covering fractions. The inferred spot covering fractions generally increase with the chromospheric activity indicator $\log R^\prime_\mathrm{HK}$, though we are largely insensitive to spot coverages smaller than $f_S \lesssim 20$%. We find a dearth of stars with small $\log R^\prime_\mathrm{HK}$ and significant spot coverages.

description: Powdered and sintered MgB2 samples have been characterized through magnetic measurements performed from T = 5 K up to few degrees above the transition temperature of about 39 K. We found that the sintered samples behave as well-connected bodies, showing no trace of granularity. In order to obtain the critical current density value Jc the Critical State Model has been therefore employed in a straightforward way. With the aim either to decrease the electron mean free path or to increase its Jc we have attempted to introduce defects in the MgB2 structure by different procedures: substitution of Lithium on the Magnesium site and doping of the precursor Boron powders with Aluminum and Silicon. The best result in terms of Jc has been achieved by Silicon doping that, moreover, does not significantly affect the transition temperature.

description: We study the behavior of the effective potential between revolving D$p$-branes at all ranges of the distance $r$, interpolating $r \gg l_s$ and $r \ll l_s$ ($l_s$ is the string length). Since the one-loop open string amplitude cannot be calculated exactly, we instead employ an efficient method of $\it{ partial\ modular\ transformation}$. The method is to perform the modular transformation partially in the moduli parameter and rewrite the amplitude into a sum of contributions from both of the open and closed string massless modes. It is nevertheless free from the double counting and can approximate the open string amplitudes with less than $3\%$ accuracy. From the D-brane effective field theory point of view, this amounts to calculating the one-loop threshold corrections of infinitely many open string massive modes. We show that threshold corrections to the $ω^2 r^2$ term of the moduli field $r$ cancel among them, where $ω$ is the angular frequency of the revolution and sets the scale of supersymmetry breaking. This cancellation suggests a possibility to solve the hierarchy problem of the Higgs mass in high scale supersymmetry breaking models.

description: The 13hr XMM-Newton/Chandra deep survey is the first of two extremely deep XMM-Newton fields observed by the XMM-OM consortium. A 120 ks Chandra mosaic, covering 0.2 square degrees, provides sensitive, confusion-free point source detection with sub-arcsecond positions, while the 200 ks XMM-Newton observation provides high quality X-ray spectroscopy over the same sky area. We have optical spectroscopic identifications for 70 X-ray sources. Of these, 42 are broad emission-line AGN with a wide range of redshifts. The optical counterparts of a further 23 sources are narrow emission line galaxies and absorption line galaxies. These 23 sources all lie at z < 1 and typically have lower X-ray luminosities than the broad-line AGN. About half of them show significant X-ray absorption and are almost certainly intrinsically absorbed AGN. However some of them have unabsorbed, AGN-like, power-law components in their X-ray spectra, but do not show broad emission lines in their optical spectra. These sources may be weak, unobscured AGN in bright galaxies and their existence at low redshifts could be a consequence of the strong cosmological evolution of AGN characteristic luminosities.

description: The dynamic behaviour of glassy materials displays strong nonequilibrium effects, such as ageing in simple protocols, memory, rejuvenation and Kovacs effects in more elaborated experiments. We show that this phenomenology may be easily understood in the context of the nonequilibrium critical dynamics of non-disordered systems, the main ingredient being the existence of an infinite equilibrium correlation length. As an example, we analytically investigate the behaviour of the 2D XY model submitted to temperature protocols similar to experiments. This shows that typical glassy effects may be obtained by `surfing on a critical line' without invoking the concept of temperature chaos nor the existence of a hierarchical phase space, as opposed to previous theoretical approaches. The relevance of this phenomenological approach to glassy dynamics is finally discussed.

description: The phenomena of odd-parity magnetoresistance and the planar Hall effect are deeply entwined with ferromagnetism. The intrinsic magnetization of the ordered state permits these unusual and rarely observed manifestations of Onsager's theorem when time reversal symmetry is broken at zero applied field. Here we study two classes of ferromagnetic materials, rare-earth magnets with high intrinsic coercivity and antiferromagnetic pyrochlores with strongly-pinned ferromagnetic layers at domain walls, which both exhibit odd-parity magnetoresistive behavior. The peculiar angular variation of the response with respect to the relative alignments of the magnetization, magnetic field, and current reveal the two underlying microscopic mechanisms: spin-polarization-dependent scattering of a Zeeman-shifted Fermi surface and magnetoresistance driven by the anomalous velocity physics usually associated with the anomalous Hall effect.

description: Our VLA observations of the XMM-Newton/Chandra 13hr deep survey field (see Page et al., this proceedings) result in one of the two deepest 1.4GHz radio maps ever made. Within the 15' radius field covered by the deep X-ray data (0.19 sq deg), a total of 556 radio sources are detected, down to a 4 sigma flux limit of 28uJy. Of the 214 Chandra sources, 55 have radio counterparts. The sub-arcsecond accuracy of the VLA and Chandra positions enable us to determine with high confidence the sources common to both surveys. Here we present the relationship between the X-ray and radio source populations at the faintest radio flux limits yet probed by such a study. We discuss how the X-ray/radio relationship differs as a function of optical morphology, ie between unresolved `stellar' objects and well resolved galaxies. We then discuss the origin of the X-ray and radio emission, ie AGN, starburst or a mixture of both, in these two classes of object.

description: Functional Fe3O4 nanoparticle (Fe3O4 NP) is one of the most attractive candidates in the demulsification field because of its outstanding recycling ability, low cytotoxicity, and good biocompatibility. However, the lack of research on their interfacial properties greatly inhibits further development in the industrial demulsification process. The main aim of this work is to explore interfacial properties of functional Fe3O4 NPs from their intrinsic natures, namely morphologies and structures. Three Fe3O4 NPs with different morphologies, including triangle-shaped Fe3O4 NPs (TF NPs), octahedron-shaped Fe3O4 NPs (OF NPs) and truncated octahedron-shaped Fe3O4 NPs (TOF NPs), were prepared by using the solvothermal reaction. Their demulsification capacities of water-in-cyclohexane (W/C) emulsion were evaluated and the TOF NPs had best performance. The demulsification process including diffusion, adsorption and phase separation stages of these Fe3O4 NPs were investigated in detail by interfacial experiments and mathematical models for explain the demulsification result. The diffusion coefficient was calculated at both the early and late stages of the demulsification process, along with their adsorption energy and the elastic modulus of oil-water interfaces. TOF NPs had the largest diffusion coefficient of 1.777 × 10−6 and 2.443 × 10−6 m2/s at the early and late stages, respectively. The W/C interface adsorption energy of TOF NPs were much lower than that of the others and the elastic modulus of W/C interface reduced by TOF NPs was also more effective than that by the others.

description: The search for new superconducting materials approaching room temperature benefits from having a variety of testing methodologies to confirm and characterize the presence of superconductivity. Often the first signatures of new superconducting species occur incompletely and in very small volume fractions. These trace amounts may be too weak to produce an observable Meissner effect and the resistance may not go completely to zero if the percolation threshold is not met. Under these conditions, secondary behavior--such as transitions or cross overs in the temperature dependence of magnetoresistance, magnetic irreversibility, or thermopower--are often used as indications for the presence of superconductivity. Our group has developed a rather unique set of fast-timescale and dissipative transport measurements that can provide another tool set for confirming and characterizing suspected superconductivity. Here we provide some background for these methods and elucidate their collaborative value in the search for new superconducting materials.

description: Background. Recently, dynamic total-body positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has become possible due to new scanner devices. While clustering algorithms have been proposed for PET analysis already earlier, there is still little research systematically evaluating these algorithms for processing of dynamic total-body PET images. Materials and methods. Here, we compare the performance of 15 unsupervised clustering methods, including K-means either by itself or after principal component analysis (PCA) or independent component analysis (ICA), Gaussian mixture model (GMM), fuzzy c-means (FCM), agglomerative clustering, spectral clustering, and several newer clustering algorithms, for classifying time activity curves (TACs) in dynamic PET images. We use dynamic total-body $^{15}$O-water PET images collected from 30 patients with suspected or confirmed coronary artery disease. To evaluate the clustering algorithms in a quantitative way, we use them to classify 5000 TACs from each image based on whether the curve is taken from brain, right heart ventricle, right kidney, lower right lung lobe, or urinary bladder. Results. According to our results, the best methods are GMM, FCM, and ICA combined with mini batch K-means, which classified the TACs with a median accuracies of 89\%, 83\%, and 81\%, respectively, in a processing time of half a second or less on average for each image. Conclusion. GMM, FCM, and ICA with mini batch K-means show promise for dynamic total-body PET analysis.

The dimension of moduli space describing the BPS solution on fuzzy sphere is exactly the same as that of the commutative sphere or the (noncommutative) plane. We show that in the soliton backgrounds, the number of zero modes of Dirac operator on fuzzy sphere, Atiyah-Singer index, is exactly given by the topological charge of the background solitons.

description: We report detection of the binary companion to the millisecond pulsar J1741+1351 with the Gran Telescopio Canarias. The optical source position coincides with the pulsar coordinates and its magnitudes are g' = 24.84(5), r' = 24.38(4) and i' = 24.17(4). Comparison of the data with the white dwarf evolutionary models shows that the source can be a He-core white dwarf with a temperature of $\approx 6000$ K and a mass of $\approx 0.2$ M$_{\odot}$. The latter is in excellent agreement with the companion mass obtained from the radio timing solution for PSR J1741+1351.

description: The advent of cloud quantum computing has led to the rapid development of quantum algorithms. In particular, it is necessary to study variational quantum-classical hybrid algorithms, which are executable on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computers. Evaluations of observables appear frequently in the variational quantum-classical hybrid algorithms for NISQ computers. By speeding up the evaluation of observables, it is possible to realize a faster algorithm and save resources of quantum computers. Grouping of observables with separable measurements has been conventionally used, and the grouping with entangled measurements has also been proposed recently by several teams. In this paper, we show that entangled measurements enhance the efficiency of evaluation of observables, both theoretically and experimentally by taking into account the covariance effect, which may affect the quality of evaluation of observables. We also propose using a part of entangled measurements for grouping to keep the depth of extra gates constant. Our proposed method is expected to be used in conjunction with other related studies. We hope that entangled measurements would become crucial resources, not only for joint measurements but also for quantum information processing.

description: Farmers need access to certified seed stocks for efficient production of traditional African vegetable seed. However, access to quality certified seed is constrained by several factors. Primary data from four selected regions of Tanzania was analyzed to examine the causal linkages among traditional African vegetable farmers’ decisions to participate in farmer-led seed enterprises and their access to quality certified seeds. The effect of farmers’ access to certified traditional African vegetable seed on revenue generated from their seed sales in the study locale was assessed. This study concludes that farmers’ revenue from traditional vegetable seed sales is positively and significantly influenced by access to certified seed. Indeed, access to certified seed can be increased, if farmers participate in farmer-led seed enterprises, and if they have more frequent contact with village extensionists. Relevant policy actions and recommendations for improving farmer-led seed enterprises are offered.

description: The electronic structure evolution of deficient halide perovskites with a general formula $(A,A')_{1+x}M_{1-x}X_{3-x}$ was investigated using the density functional theory. The focus is placed on characterization of changes in the band gap, band alignment, effective mass, and optical properties of deficient perovskites at various concentrations of defects. We uncover unusual electronic properties of the defect corresponding to a $M\!-\!X$ vacancy filled with an $A'$ cation. This defect "repels" electrons and holes producing no trap states and, in moderate quantities ($x\le0.1$), does not hinder charge transport properties of the material. This behavior is rationalized using a confinement model and provides an additional insight to the defect tolerance of halide perovskites.

description: Seeking for next-generation energy sources that are economic, sustainable (renewable), clean (environment-friendly), and abundant in earth is crucial when facing the challenges of energy crisis. There have been numerous studies exploring the possibility of carbon based materials to be utilized in future energy applications. In this paper, we introduce T-carbon, which is a theoretically predicted but recently experimentally synthesized carbon allotrope, as a promising material for next-generation energy applications. It is shown that T-carbon can be potentially used in thermoelectrics, hydrogen storage, lithium ion batteries, \emph{etc}. The challenges, opportunities, and possible directions for future studies of energy applications of T-carbon are also addressed. With the development of more environment-friendly technologies, the promising applications of T-carbon in energy fields would not only produce scientifically significant impact in related fields but also lead to a number of industrial and technical applications.

Diblock copolymer thin films: Parallel and perpendicular lamellar phases in the weak segregation limit

description: We study morphologies of thin-film diblock copolymers between two flat and parallel walls. The study is restricted to the weak segregation regime below the order-disorder transition temperature. The deviation from perfect lamellar shape is calculated for phases which are perpendicular and parallel to the walls. We examine the undulations of the inter material dividing surface and its angle with the walls, and find that the deviation from its unperturbed position can be much larger than in the strong segregation case. Evaluating the weak segregation stability of the lamellar phases, it is shown that a surface interaction, which is quadratic in the monomer concentration, favors the perpendicular lamellar phase. In particular, the degeneracy between perpendicular and unfrustrated parallel lamellar phases for walls without a preferential adsorption is removed.

A precise conformally mapped method for water waves in complex transient environments
Creators: name: Akselsen, Andreas H.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A two-dimensional water wave model based on conformal mapping is presented. The model is exact in the sense that it does not rely on truncated series expansions, nor suffer any numerical diffusion. Additionally, it is computationally highly efficient as it numerically evaluates only the surface line while using a fixed number of FFT operations per time step. A double layered mapping enforces prescribed outer boundaries without iteration. The model also supports transient boundaries, including walls. Mapping models are presented that support smooth bathymetries and angled overhanging geometries. An exact piston-type wavemaker model demonstrates the method's potential as a numerical wave tank. The model is tested and validated through a number of examples covering shallow water waves, wavemaker generation, rising bathymetry shelves, and wave reflection from slanting structures. A paddle-type wavemaker model, developed from the present theory, will be detailed in a forthcoming paper.

ALIGNMENT

description: The Vera C. Rubin Observatory\'s Simonyi Survey Telescope (Simonyi Telescope) is an 8.4m telescope now in the integration and testing phase, on Cerro Pachon in Chile. To fulfill the Rubin Observatory scientific objectives of conducting a decade-long time domain survey of the optical sky, the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) \\cite{Ivezic19}, the telescope requires delivering a consistent exquisite image quality over its 3.5 degrees field of view (FoV). This is accomplished using a sophisticated active optics system (AOS). In addition to correct the predictable static and gravity induced aberrations in open-loop, there are four curvature wavefront sensors (CWFs) at the periphery of the detector. These CFWs allow to calculate, in quasi-real time (40s), the appropriate correction offsets to be sent to the three Simonyi Telescope\'s actuated mirrors and the two hexapods, to further improve the image quality.
In this paper, we describe the algorithms optimization and trade-offs, including the use of PSF moments variations for telescope alignment as well as wavefront error estimation. To validate these studies in advance of on-sky testing, we are using both a simulation tool and our 1.2m Auxiliary Telescope equipped with a subset of identical hardware and software as the Simonyi Telescope. Finally, we will describe our on on-sky testing strategy.

description: A class of special holonomy spaces arise as nilmanifolds fibred over a line interval and are dual to intersecting brane solutions of string theory. Further dualities relate these to T-folds, exotic branes, essentially doubled spaces and spaces with R-flux. We develop the doubled geometry of these spaces, with the various duals arising as different slices of the doubled space.

description: Nationally representative studies have shown that mood disorders such as depression and anxiety are widely prevalent in children, with depression acting as one of the leading causes of disability in the United States (Ghandour et al., 2018; Schmaal et al., 2016). Research on adults suggests that depression and mood regulation can be linked to brain structure and function, specifically abnormalities with the amygdala and hippocampus (Yavas et al., 2019; Gerritsen et al., 2012). Interestingly, these brain regions have been shown to undergo structural and functional changes in early childhood that correspond with critical developmental changes in behavior (e.g., Riggins et al., 2018; Stern et al., 2019). Despite these changes, there is very little research investigating the relation between the brain and depressive symptoms in children, particularly during early childhood. Furthering the understanding of the relation between structural changes in brain and depressive symptoms is critically important not only for addressing high rates of childhood depression, but also for understanding the etiology and course of depression from early childhood into adulthood. This information could inform future intervention strategies and improve our understanding of normative and non-normative development in early childhood. This study aims to fill this gap by assessing the association between amygdala and hippocampus volumes and depressive symptoms cross sectionally and longitudinally in children ages 4-8 years.

description: We present a Monte Carlo simulation of the transmission of measles within a population sample during its growing and equilibrium states by introducing two different vaccination schedules of one and two doses. We study the effects of the contact rate per unit time $ξ$ as well as the initial conditions on the persistence of the disease. We found a weak effect of the initial conditions while the disease persists when $ξ$ lies in the range 1/L-10/L ($L$ being the latent period). Further comparison with existing data, prediction of future epidemics and other estimations of the vaccination efficiency are provided. Finally, we compare our approach to the models using the mass action principle in the first and another epidemic region and found the incidence independent of the number of susceptibles after the epidemic peak while it strongly fluctuates in its growing region. This method can be easily applied to other human, animals and vegetable diseases and includes more complicated parameters.
