description: In the late age of developing quantum mechanics, Lev Landau, one of the distinguished players, made great efforts to understand the nature of matter, even stellar matter, by applying the quantum theory. Ninety years ago, he published his idea of "neutron" star, which burst upon him during his visit over Europe in the previous year. The key point that motivated Landau to write the paper is to make a state with lower energy for "gigantic nucleus", avoiding extremely high kinematic energy of electron gas due to the new Fermi-Dirac statistics focused hotly on at that time. Landau had no alternative but to neutronize/neutralize by "combining a proton and an electron", as electron and proton were supposed to be elementary before the discovery of neutron. However, our understanding of the Nature has fundamentally improved today, and another way (i.e., strangeonization) could also embody neutralization and thus a low-energy state that Landau had in mind, which could further make unprecedented opportunities in this multi-messenger era of astronomy. Strangeon matter in "old" physics may impact dramatically on today's physics, from compact stars initiated by Landau, to cosmic rays and dark matter. In this essay, we are making briefly the origin and development of neutron star concept to reform radically, to remember Landau's substantial contribution in astrophysics and to recall those peculiar memories.

description: Gas separation membranes can play a huge role in the future as a separation technology for hydrogen due to its poten-tial application as an environmentally friendly energy storage- or as a propulsion system for vehicles. Natural gasstreams are considered as a means of transportation for hydrogen as long as a suitable technology can be used toseparate hydrogen from the rest of the gas at the end of the process. Membrane technology appears as a promisingsolution to this.Interesting membrane materials, that can achieve the goal of selective H2/CH4 and H2/N2 gas separations, are 2D-basedzeolite membranes thanks to their defined pore aperture, and high flux due to their low thickness [7, 9]. An interesting2D zeolite for the separation of H2 from bigger gas molecules, such as CH4 or CO2, is the titanosilicate zeolite JDF-1 dueto the small pore aperture in the range of the hydrogen molecule [6]. Only a few works in the literature address the useof this specific zeolite [2, 5, 6]. Most of them focus on mixed matrix membrane (MMM) preparation by impregnation/in-filtration of the 2D zeolite and related nanosheet in a polymer matrix. Such preparation leads to the formation of com-posite membrane materials with aggregated zeolite nanomaterial in the polymer matrix. Despite their impressiveH2/CH4 selectivity of up to 128 [2] such MMMs exhibit inherent limitations such as their susceptibility to plasticization[3] and have usually a far bigger thickness up to the magnitude of several microns [1, 4, 8].In this work, a new generation of 2D-based zeolite membranes made of titanosilicate nanosheets was developed directlyon porous ceramic supports (Fig. 1). The preparation of these membranes requires the controlled deposition ofnanosheets followed by the in-situ surface polymerization of a thin polyimide network to cover the defects and enhancethe separation performance of the membrane. Relevant characterization methods were deployed to investigate themorphology and composition of the membrane and the separation performance was investigated using gas permeationmeasurements under pressure gradient.

description: Abstract

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a debilitating condition characterized by the loss of blood supply to the bone, leading to the collapse of the femoral head and subsequent joint destruction if left untreated. The management of AVN has evolved significantly, moving from traditional surgical interventions like total hip arthroplasty (THA) to minimally invasive and regenerative approaches that aim to preserve the native joint, reduce complications, and enhance recovery. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the current and emerging strategies for the treatment of AVN, highlighting the efficacy and safety profiles of minimally invasive approaches such as core decompression combined with biological augmentation therapies like platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), and stromal vascular fraction (SVF). Traditional surgical interventions, such as THA and hip resurfacing, remain the gold standard for advanced AVN, offering excellent pain relief and functional restoration. However, they are associated with higher complication rates, longer recovery times, and potential need for revision surgeries, especially in younger patients. Comparative analysis suggests that minimally invasive approaches, particularly when combined with regenerative therapies, provide substantial benefits in early to mid-stages of AVN, delaying or even preventing the need for THA. Future directions in the management of AVN focus on innovations in regenerative medicine, including advanced stem cell therapies, gene editing, tissue engineering, and novel minimally invasive techniques enhanced by robotics and augmented reality. The development of biomarkers for early detection, personalized treatment approaches using artificial intelligence, and the integration of machine learning in clinical decision-making are also promising areas for advancing AVN care. This review emphasizes the need for ongoing clinical research to optimize these emerging therapies and develop tailored strategies that improve patient outcomes and quality of life.

description: The presence of radioactive $^{26}$Al at 1.8 MeV reflects ongoing nucleosynthesis in the Milky Way. Diffuse emission from its decay can be measured with gamma-ray telescopes in space. The intensity, line shape, and spatial distribution of the $^{26}$Al emission allow a study of these nucleosynthesis sources. The line parameters trace massive-star feedback in the interstellar medium due to its 1~My lifetime. We aim to deepen previous studies of the $^{26}$Al emission in the Milky Way, using all gamma-ray data including single and double events as collected with SPI on INTEGRAL from 2003 until 2020. We apply improved spectral response and background as evaluated from tracing spectral details over the entire mission. The exposure for Galactic $^{26}$Al emission is enhanced using all event types measured within SPI. We re-determine the intensity of Galactic $^{26}$Al emission across the entire sky, through maximum likelihood fits of simulated and model-built sky distributions to SPI spectra for single and for double detector hits. We find an all-sky flux of (1.84$\pm$0.03$)\times$10$^{-3}$~ph~cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ in the 1.809~MeV line from $^{26}$Al, determined as fitted to sky distributions from previous observations with COMPTEL. Significant emission from higher latitudes indicate an origin from nearby massive-star groups and superbubbles, also supported by a bottom-up population synthesis model. The line centroid is found at (1809.83$\pm$0.04~keV, and line broadening from source kinematics integrated over the sky is (0.62$\pm0.3$)~keV (FWHM).

description: Subfamily Cricetomyinae Roberts, 1951. Mammals S Africa, p. 434. SYNONYMS: Saccostomurinae. COMMENTS: Although initially classified within Murinae (e.g., Ellerman, 1941; Simpson, 1945; Thomas, 1897a), systematists acknowledged a closer affinity of African pouched rats to one another than to other murines, a distinction later formalized by Roberts (1951). Subsequent systematic arrangements have followed Petter (1966a) in allying cricetomyines with cricetids (Reig, 1980; Rosevear, 1969). Anatomy of internal cheek pouches supports the monophyly of the subfamily (see Ryan, 1989b); other morphological traits and phylogenetic interpretations summarized by Carleton and Musser (1984). Roberts (1951) segregated Saccostomus, as the lone member of Saccostomurinae, from other African pouched rats (Cricetomyinae), a division not recognized by later systematists (Petter, 1966a; Ryan, 1989b).

description: We study the effects of different descriptions of the solar surface convection on the eigenfrequencies of p-modes. 1-D evolution calculations of the whole Sun and 3-D hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the current surface are performed. These calculations rely on realistic physics. Averaged stratifications of the 3-D simulations are introduced in the 1-D solar evolution or in the structure models. The eigenfrequencies obtained are compared to those of 1-D models relying on the usual phenomenologies of convection and to observations of the MDI instrument aboard SoHO. We also investigate how the magnetic activity could change the eigenfrequencies and the solar radius, assuming that, 3 Mm below the surface, the upgoing plasma advects a 1.2 kG horizontal field. All models and observed eigenfrequencies are fairly close below 3 mHz. Above 3 mHz the eigenfrequencies of the phenomenological convection models are above the observed eigenfrequencies. The frequencies of the models based on the 3-D simulations are slightly below the observed frequencies. Their maximum deviation is ~ 3 μHz at 3 mHz but drops below 1 μHz at 4 mHz. Replacing the hydrodynamic by the magnetohydrodynamic simulation increases the eigenfrequencies. The shift is negligible below 2.2 mHz and then increases linearly with frequency to reach ~ 1.7 μHz at 4 mHz. The impact of the simulated activity is a 14 milliarcsecond shrinking of the solar layers near the optical depth unity.

description: After many years of flying in space primarily for educational purposes, CubeSats - tiny satellites with form factors corresponding to arrangements of "1U" units, or cubes, each 10 cm on a side - have come into their own as valuable platforms for technology advancement and scientific investigations. CubeSats offer comparatively rapid, low-cost access to space for payloads that be built, tested, and operated by relatively small teams, with substantial contributions from students and early career researchers. Continuing advances in compact, low-power detectors, readout electronics, and flight computers have now enabled X-ray and gamma-ray sensing payloads that can fit within the constraints of CubeSat missions, permitting in-orbit demonstrations of new techniques and innovative high-energy astronomy observations. Gamma-ray-sensing CubeSats are certain to make an important contribution in the new era of multi-messenger, time-domain astronomy by detecting and localizing bright transients such as gamma-ray bursts, solar flares, and terrestrial gamma-ray flashes; however, other astrophysical science areas requiring long observations in a low-background environment, including gamma-ray polarimetry, studies of nuclear lines, and measurement of diffuse backgrounds, will likely benefit as well. We present the primary benefits of CubeSats for high-energy astronomy, highlight the scientific areas currently or soon to be studied, and review the missions that are currently operating, under development, or proposed. A rich portfolio of CubeSats for gamma-ray astronomy already exists, and the potential for a broad range of creative and scientifically productive missions in the near future is very high.

PT-symmetry broken by point-group symmetry

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We discuss a PT-symmetric Hamiltonian with complex eigenvalues. It is based on the dimensionless Schrödinger equation for a particle in a square box with the PT-symmetric potential $V(x,y)=iaxy$. Perturbation theory clearly shows that some of the eigenvalues are complex for sufficiently small values of $|a|$. Point-group symmetry proves useful to guess if some of the eigenvalues may already be complex for all values of the coupling constant. We confirm those conclusions by means of an accurate numerical calculation based on the diagonalization method. On the other hand, the Schrödinger equation with the potential $V(x,y)=iaxy^{2}$ exhibits real eigenvalues for sufficiently small values of $|a|$. Point group symmetry suggests that PT-symmetry may be broken in the former case and unbroken in the latter one.

description: The $B \to K \ell^+ \ell^-$ system is particularly interesting to explore physics beyond the Standard Model. Such effects could provide new sources of CP violation, thereby giving rise to Wilson coefficients which could not only be real, as assumed in most analyses, but also be complex. We propose a new strategy to extract the complex $C_{9 μ}$, $C_{10 μ}$ from the data, utilising the complementarity of direct CP violation in $B^+\to K^+ μ^+μ^-$ and mixing-induced CP violation arising - in addition to direct CP violation - in $B^0_d \to K_{S} μ^+μ^-$, as well as the differential rate in appropriate $q^2$ bins. The long-distance effects, which play a key role to generate the direct CP asymmetries, cannot be reliably calculated due to their non-perturbative nature. In order to describe them, we apply a model by the LHCb Collaboration employing experimental data. Assuming specific scenarios, we demonstrate the fingerprinting of CP-violating New Physics and the distinction between ambiguities in the model of the long-distance contributions. Finally, New Physics could couple differently to muons and electrons, as probed through the lepton flavour universality ratio $R_K$. We discuss these effects in the presence of CP violation and present a new way to measure the direct CP asymmetries of the $B \to K e^+ e^-$ channels.

Using the LSZ reduction formula with a worldline representation for the propagator in a spacetime field, we make use of the saddle-point method to obtain a semiclassical approximation of the pair-production spectrum. In order to check the final result, we integrate the spectrum and compare with the results obtained using a previous instanton method for the imaginary part of the effective action.

description: The Near Infrared Camera for the James Webb Space Telescope is delivering the imagery that astronomers have hoped for ever since JWST was proposed back in the 1990s. In the Commissioning Period that extended from right after launch to early July 2022 NIRCam has been subjected to a number of performance tests and operational checks. The camera is exceeding pre-launch expectations in virtually all areas with very few surprises discovered in flight. NIRCam also delivered the imagery needed by the Wavefront Sensing Team for use in aligning the telescope mirror segments (\citealt{Acton_etal2022}, \citealt{McElwain_etal2022}).

description: The redshifted 21-cm emission by neutral hydrogen offers a unique tool for mapping structure formation in the early universe in three dimensions. Here we provide the first detailed calculation of the 21-cm emission signal during and after the epoch of hydrogen recombination in the redshift range of z ~ 500-1,100, corresponding to observed wavelengths of 100-230 meters. The 21-cm line deviates from thermal equilibrium with the cosmic microwave background (CMB) due to the excess Ly-alpha radiation from hydrogen and helium recombinations. The resulting 21-cm signal reaches a brightness temperature of a milli-Kelvin, orders of magnitude larger than previously estimated. Its detection by a future lunar or space-based observatory could improve dramatically the statistical constraints on the cosmological initial conditions compared to existing two-dimensional maps of the CMB anisotropies.

description: The lowest 3 tune-out wavelengths of the four alkaline-earth atoms, Be, Mg, Ca and Sr are determined from tabulations of matrix elements produced from large first principles calculations. The tune-out wavelengths are located near the wavelengths for $^3P^o_1$ and $^1P^o_1$ excitations. The measurement of the tune-out wavelengths could be used to establish a quantitative relationship between the oscillator strength of the transition leading to existence of the tune-out wavelength and the dynamic polarizability of the atom at the tune-out frequency. The longest tune-out wavelengths for Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Yb are 454.9813 nm, 457.2372 nm, 657.446 nm, 689.200 nm, 788.875 nm and 553.00 nm respectively.

description: The anisotropy of the critical current density Jc depends in general on both the properties of the flux lines (such as line tension, coherence length and penetration depth) and the properties of the defects (such as density, shape, orientation etc.). Whereas the Jc anisotropy in microstructurally clean films can be scaled to an effective magnetic field containing the Ginzburg-Landau anisotropy term, it is in general not possible (or only in a limited field range) for samples containing extended defects. Here, the Jc anisotropy of a Co-doped BaFe2As2 sample with 45° [001] tilt grain boundaries (GBs), i.e. grain boundaries created by 45° in-plane rotated grains, as well as extended Fe particles is investigated. This microstructure leads to c-axis correlated pinning, both due to the GBs and the Fe particles and manifests in a c-axis peak in the Jc anisotropy at low magnetic fields and a deviation from the anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau scaling at higher fields. Strong pinning at ellipsoidal extended defects, i.e. the Fe particles, is discussed, and the full Jc anisotropy is fitted successfully with the vortex path model. The results are compared to a sample without GBs and Fe particles. 45° GBs seem to be good pinning centers rather than detrimental to current flow.

description: Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the factors associated with progressive muscle relaxation exercises in elderly people with hypertension at Tresna Werdha Nursing Home, East Jakarta. The method used in this research is the One Group Pretest-Posttest Design approach. A total of 30 elderly with hypertension were involved in this study. The respondents were trained in Progressive Muscle Relaxation. Bivariate data using Pearson's correlation and Kendall's tau were used to test the relationship between respondents' data on systolic and diastolic blood pressure after the intervention of progressive muscle relaxation exercise. The results showed that there was a relationship between pulse and systolic blood pressure before and after the intervention of progressive muscle relaxation with a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05). There was a relationship between pulse and diastolic blood pressure before and after the intervention of progressive muscle relaxation with a P-Value of 0.003 (< 0.05). There was a significant relationship between the history of comorbidities and the systolic blood pressure before and after the intervention of progressive muscle relaxation with a P-Value = 0.013 (< 0.05). There was a significant relationship between the history of comorbidities and the diastolic blood pressure before and after the intervention of progressive muscle relaxation with a P-Value = 0.002 (< 0.05). The factors associated with progressive muscle relaxation exercises in the elderly with hypertension are pulse rate and history of comorbidities. Progressive muscle relaxation exercises can be used as a daily routine activity for the elderly with hypertension to maintain optimal blood pressure.

COMMENTS: Six nominal species were recognized (e.g., Allen, 1939) before Ellerman (1941) reduced all to subspecies of C. gambianus. Genest-Villard's (1967) revision provided evidence of two kinds, a predominantly savannah-dwelling species (C. gambianus) and a lowland forest form (C. emini). Her character states for discriminating the two species are generally workable in West Africa but break down in parts of eastern Africa, which suggests the need for additional alpha-level study.

description: Light neutralino dark matter can be achieved in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model if staus are rather light, with mass around 100 GeV. We perform a detailed analysis of the relevant supersymmetric parameter space, including also the possibility of light selectons and smuons, and of light higgsino- or wino-like charginos. In addition to the latest limits from direct and indirect detection of dark matter, ATLAS and CMS constraints on electroweak-inos and on sleptons are taken into account using a "simplified models" framework. Measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson at 125 GeV, which constrain amongst others the invisible decay of the Higgs boson into a pair of neutralinos, are also implemented in the analysis. We show that viable neutralino dark matter can be achieved for masses as low as 15 GeV. In this case, light charginos close to the LEP bound are required in addition to light right-chiral staus. Significant deviations are observed in the couplings of the 125 GeV Higgs boson. These constitute a promising way to probe the light neutralino dark matter scenario in the next run of the LHC.

description: This project examines four architecture exhibitions held between 1979 and 1989 in Melbourne. I have developed a new curatorial methodology that creatively mobilises each exhibition’s archive in conjunction with new interviews. The outcome is a ‘parafictional’ exhibition experienced via cinematographic ‘tours’ that puts contemporary viewers in the liminal space between fact and fiction. My research has the focused aim of recuperating exhibitions for Australian architectural history and the broader aim of offering an original but replicable and transferrable method for excavating, imagining and reflecting on conditions of historical cultural production by applying a curatorial logic and methodology to past exhibitions.

description: The stickiness effect is a fundamental feature of quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems. We propose the use of an entropy-based measure of the recurrence plots (RP), namely, the entropy of the distribution of the recurrence times (estimated from the RP), to characterize the dynamics of a typical quasi-integrable Hamiltonian system with coexisting regular and chaotic regions. We show that the recurrence time entropy (RTE) is positively correlated to the largest Lyapunov exponent, with a high correlation coefficient. We obtain a multi-modal distribution of the finite-time RTE and find that each mode corresponds to the motion around islands of different hierarchical levels.

description: KUV 11370+4222 is a ZZ Ceti star discovered in 1996, which has not been observed since then. We performed observations for KUV 11370+4222 in 2010 January. From the Fourier transform spectrum of the light curves, ten independent modes are detected. We searched for the best-fitting model by using the observed periods to match the model periods and get it with the total mass of 0.625 ${\rm M_{\odot}}$, the effective temperature of 10950 K, and the helium mass fraction and hydrogen mass fraction of $10^{-2.2}$ and $10^{-4.0}$, respectively. We have found a triplet of frequency split by rotation, which are $l=1$ modes. Using the frequency shifts we estimate a rotation period of $5.56\pm0.08$ h. Besides it, another $l=1$ mode is identified. The other observed periods are identified as $l=2$ modes. At last we investigated the property of the mode trapping.

Can Two Ultrarelativistic Objects Lose Almost All Their Energy to Gravitational Radiation?

description: In 2007 Pretorius and Khurana did "speculate that at threshold [at a critical impact parameter], all of the kinetic energy of the system [two ultrarelativistic black holes] is converted to gravitational waves, which can be an arbitrarily large fraction of the total energy." However, in 2012 Sperhake, Berti, Cardoso, and Pretorius performed numerical calculations that led them to the contrary conclusion: "An extrapolation of our results to the limit $γ\rightarrow \infty$ suggests that about half of the center-of-mass energy of the system can be emitted in gravitational radiation, while the rest must be converted into rest-mass and spin energy." Here I present arguments against this latter conclusion and in support of the earlier speculation that for sufficiently large $γ$, all but an arbitrarily small fraction of the total energy can be radiated away.

description: Some aspects of the systematic and statistical errors affecting grid-based estimation of stellar masses and radii have still not been investigated well. We study the impact on mass and radius determination of the uncertainty in the input physics, in the mixing-length value, in the initial helium abundance, and in the microscopic diffusion efficiency adopted in stellar model computations. We consider stars with mass in the range [0.8 - 1.1] Msun and evolutionary stages from the zero-age main sequence to the central hydrogen exhaustion. Stellar parameters were recovered by a maximum-likelihood technique, comparing the observations constraints to a grid of stellar models. Synthetic grids with perturbed input were adopted to estimate the systematic errors arising from the current uncertainty in model computations. We found that the statistical error components, owing to the current typical uncertainty in the observations, are nearly constant in all cases at about 4.5% and 2.2% on mass and radius determination, respectively. The systematic bias on mass and radius determination due to a variation of $\pm$ 1 in Delta Y/Delta Z is $\pm$ 2.3% and $\pm$ 1.1%; the one due to a change of $\pm$ 0.24 in the value of the mixing-length is $\pm$ 2.1% and $\pm$ 1.0%; the one due to a variation of $\pm$ 5% in the radiative opacity is $\mp$ 1.0% and $\mp$ 0.45%. An important bias source is to neglect microscopic diffusion, which accounts for errors of about 3.7% and 1.5% on mass and radius. The cumulative effects of the considered uncertainty sources can produce biased estimates of stellar characteristics. Comparison of the results of our technique with other grid techniques shows that the systematic biases induced by the differences in the estimation grids are generally greater than the statistical errors involved.
