description: The IdeaSquare innovation team confronts a question many hardly dare to ask. But as always, it never shies away from a good challenge. This time, the journey starts with questioning the universality of the way particle physics research scales up. Is bigger better? The adventure then starts, bottom up, from asking whether small is beautiful. Then, relying on dimensions of politics, biology and finally, physics, the IdeaSquare innovation team find the Universal Truth to answer… (or not) the very question everyone is wondering.

Motivating students to attend open innovation initiatives. A motivational structure perspective
Creators: name: Cocchi, Nicolò
Publisher: name: CERN IdeaSquare Journal of Experimental Innovation
Year: 2023

description: Given the widespread diffusion of open innovation (OI) initiatives that rely on students’ contributions, we aim to investigate how students’ motivations for attending OI initiatives connect and interact. To achieve this purpose, we conducted two studies using the laddering technique with a sample of 59 students who participated in two OI programs held in different contexts: ICARO, a business-oriented program carried out before the COVIID-19, and TEN, a social innovation program conducted during the pandemic to assist people in coping with the effects of COVID-19. Our results reveal two motivational maps that illustrate commonalities and differences in motivational orientations and highlight core and context-dependent motivational structures. Our study provides evidence for the value of adopting a structural perspective on motivations and presents a comprehensive and replicable methodology for assessing motivations.

A Gravity Dual of Ultra-slow Roll Inflation

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study time-dependent deformations of a certain class of backgrounds in type IIB supergravity. These backgrounds are solutions of a five-dimensional consistent truncation, relevant for gauge/gravity duality, which have the form of dS_4 foliations over a fifth (radial) direction. We investigate time-dependent deformations of those solutions in the search for gravitational duals of models of glueball inflation. A particular starting ansatz enables us to find a class of analytical solutions, corresponding to an ultra-slow roll inflationary regime. This regime may play a role in understanding the low l anomaly in the power spectrum of the CMB.

Evolutionary Analysis of Gaseous Sub-Neptune-Mass Planets with MESA

description: Sub-Neptune-sized exoplanets represent one of the most common types of planets in the Milky Way, yet many of their properties are unknown. Here, we present a prescription to adapt the capabilities of the stellar evolution toolkit Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) to model sub-Neptune mass planets with H/He envelopes. With the addition of routines treating the planet core luminosity, heavy element enrichment, atmospheric boundary condition, and mass loss due to hydrodynamic winds, the evolutionary pathways of planets with diverse starting conditions are more accurately constrained. Using these dynamical models, we construct mass-composition relationships of planets from 1 to 400 $M_{\oplus}$ and investigate how mass-loss impacts their composition and evolution history. We demonstrate that planet radii are typically insensitive to the evolution pathway that brought the planet to its instantaneous mass, composition and age, with variations from hysteresis. We find that planet envelope mass loss timescales, $τ_{\rm env}$, vary non-monotonically with H/He envelope mass fractions (at fixed planet mass). In our simulations of young (100~Myr) low-mass ($M_p\lesssim10~M_\oplus$) planets with rocky cores, $τ_{\rm env}$ is maximized at $M_{\rm env}/M_p=1\%$ to $3\%$. The resulting convergent mass loss evolution could potentially imprint itself on the close-in planet population as a preferred H/He mass fraction of ${\sim}1\%$. Looking ahead, we anticipate that this numerical code will see widespread applications complementing both 3-D models and observational exoplanet surveys.

description: In this paper, we study the accretion process for fluids flowing near a black hole in the context of $f(T)$ teleparallel gravity. Specifically, by performing a dynamical analysis by a Hamiltonian system, we are able to find the sonic points. After that, we consider different isothermal test fluids in order to study the accretion process when they are falling onto the black hole. We found that these flows can be classified according to the equation of state and the black hole features. Results are compared in $f(T)$ and $f(R)$ gravity.

description: We propose a new method for creating computationally efficient and compact convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using a novel sparse connection structure that resembles a tree root. This allows a significant reduction in computational cost and number of parameters compared to state-of-the-art deep CNNs, without compromising accuracy, by exploiting the sparsity of inter-layer filter dependencies. We validate our approach by using it to train more efficient variants of state-of-the-art CNN architectures, evaluated on the CIFAR10 and ILSVRC datasets. Our results show similar or higher accuracy than the baseline architectures with much less computation, as measured by CPU and GPU timings. For example, for ResNet 50, our model has 40% fewer parameters, 45% fewer floating point operations, and is 31% (12%) faster on a CPU (GPU). For the deeper ResNet 200 our model has 25% fewer floating point operations and 44% fewer parameters, while maintaining state-of-the-art accuracy. For GoogLeNet, our model has 7% fewer parameters and is 21% (16%) faster on a CPU (GPU).

description: We present a general input-output formalism for the few-photon transport in multiple waveguide channels coupled to a local cavity. Using this formalism, we study the effect of Fano interference in two-photon quantum transport. We show that the physics of Fano interference can manifest as an asymmetric spectral line shape in the frequency dependence of the two-photon correlation function. The two-photon fluorescence spectrum, on the other hand, does not exhibit the physics of Fano interference.

description: We numerically simulate gravitational shock wave collisions in a holographic model dual to a non-conformal four-dimensional gauge theory. We find two novel effects associated to the non-zero bulk viscosity of the resulting plasma. First, the hydrodynamization time increases. Second, if the bulk viscosity is large enough then the plasma becomes well described by hydrodynamics before the energy density and the average pressure begin to obey the equilibrium equation of state. We discuss implications for the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy ion collision experiments.

description: We investigate the linear elastic response of amorphous solids to a shear strain at zero temperature. We find that the response is characterized by at least two distinct shear moduli. The first one, $μ_{\rm ZFC}$, is associated with the linear response of a single energy minimum. The second, $μ_{\rm FC}$, is related to sampling, through plastic events, an ensemble of distinct energy minima. We provide examples of protocols that allow one to measure both shear moduli. In agreement with a theoretical prediction based on the exact solution in infinite spatial dimensions, the ratio $μ_{\rm FC}/μ_{\rm ZFC}$ is found to vanish proportionally to the square root of pressure at the jamming transition. Our results establish that amorphous solids are characterized by a rugged energy landscape, on which the infinite-dimensional solution can give useful insight.

description: In this work, we investigate the thermodynamics of black $p$-branes (BB) in the context of Gravity's Rainbow. We investigate this using rainbow functions that have been motivated from loop quantum gravity and $κ$-Minkowski noncommutative spacetime. Then for the sake of comparison, we examine a couple of other rainbow functions that have also appeared in the literature. We show that, for consistency, Gravity's Rainbow imposes a constraint on the minimum mass of the BB, a constraint that we interpret here as implying the existence of a black $p$-brane remnant. This interpretation is supported by the computation of the black $p$-brane's heat capacity that shows that the latter vanishes when the Schwarzschild radius takes on a value that is bigger than its extremal limit. We found that the same conclusion is reached for the third version of rainbow functions treated here but not with the second one for which only standard black $p$-brane thermodynamics is recovered.

Exploring the simplest purely baryonic decay processes

description: Though not considered in general, purely baryonic decays could shed light on the puzzle of the baryon number asymmetry in the universe by means of a better understanding of the baryonic nature of our matter world. As such, they constitute a yet unexplored class of decay processes worth investigating. We propose to search for purely baryonic decay processes at the LHCb experiment. No such type of decay has ever been observed. In particular, we concentrate on the decay $Λ_b^0\to p\bar pn$, which is the simplest purely baryonic decay mode, with solely spin-1/2 baryons involved. We predict its decay branching ratio to be ${\cal B}(Λ_b^0\to p\bar pn)=(2.0^{+0.3}_{-0.2})\times 10^{-6}$, which is sufficiently large to make the decay mode accessible to LHCb. Our study can be extended to other purely baryonic decays such as $Λ_b^0\to p\bar p Λ$ and $Λ_b^0\to Λ\bar ΛΛ$, as well as to similar decays of anti-triplet $b$-baryons such as $Ξ_b^{0,-}$.

Convergence of the Cyclic and Quasi-cyclic Block Jacobi Methods

Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)

description: The paper studies the global convergence of the block Jacobi me\-thod for symmetric matrices. Given a symmetric matrix $A$ of order $n$, the method generates a sequence of matrices by the rule $A^{(k+1)}=U_k^TA^{(k)}U_k$, $k\geq0$, where $U_k$ are orthogonal elementary block matrices. A class of generalized serial pivot strategies is introduced, significantly enlarging the known class of weak wavefront strategies, and appropriate global convergence proofs are obtained. The results are phrased in the stronger form: $S(A')\leq c S(A)$, where $A'$ is the matrix obtained from $A$ after one full cycle, $c<1$ is a constant and $S(A)$ is the off-norm of $A$. Hence, using the theory of block Jacobi operators, one can apply the obtained results to prove convergence of block Jacobi methods for other eigenvalue problems, such as the generalized eigenvalue problem. As an example, the results are applied to the block $J$-Jacobi method. Finally, all results are extended to the corresponding quasi-cyclic strategies.

description: The present thesis studies the behavior of traditional lime-based mortars under high temperatures, with the use of recycled raw materials. The study of historical structures and materials under random conditions, like a fire, constitutes a crucial research topic during the last decades, taking into account their durability in extreme phenomena. The research scope is to contribute to the development of expertise on the behavior of traditional mortars exposed to fire. The goal is to better understand the alterations of their mechanical and physical mortar properties at elevated temperatures. Trying to reuse and utilize waste is a progressive way that could be also applied on the restoration of historic and traditional structures, as long as the principles of compatibility are applied. The innovation of the present research is based on the fact that there are no relevant studies on the exploitation of recycled raw materials in traditional mortars, for enhancing their resistance at elevated temperatures. To implement the research, an adequate number of mortar specimens were manufactured and tested, based on the expertise of the Laboratory of Building Materials, School of Civil Engineering AUTH

description: In a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) space-time background we study the classical cosmological models in the context of recently proposed theory of nonlinear minimal massive bigravity. We show that in the presence of perfect fluid the classical field equations acquire contribution from the massive graviton as a cosmological term which is positive or negative depending on the dynamical competition between two scale factors of bigravity metrics. We obtain the classical field equations for flat and open universes in the ordinary and Schutz representation of perfect fluid. Focusing on the Schutz representation for flat universe, we find classical solutions exhibiting singularities at early universe with vacuum equation of state. Then, in the Schutz representation, we study the quantum cosmology for flat universe and derive the Schrodinger-Wheeler-DeWitt equation. We find its exact and wave packet solutions and discuss on their properties to show that the initial singularity in the classical solutions can be avoided by quantum cosmology. Similar to the study of Hartle-Hawking no-boundary proposal in the quantum cosmology of de Rham, Gabadadze and Tolley (dRGT) massive gravity, it turns out that the mass of graviton predicted by quantum cosmology of the minimal massive bigravity is large at early universe. This is in agreement with the fact that at early universe the cosmological constant should be large.

This scalar couples to the leptons and induces many processes such as $pp\rightarrow\ell^{\pm}\ell^{\pm}\ell^{\mp}+\slashed{E}_{T}$. In our analysis we discuss the opposite sign same flavor leptons signal, as well as the background free channel with the tau contribution which can enhance the signal/background ratio for center of mass energies $\sqrt{s}$= 8 TeV and $\sqrt{s}$ = 14 TeV.

description: Objective: To compare selected umbilical cord parameters, especially cord coiling, between breech and vertex presentations. Methods: We prospectively collected umbilical cords from uncomplicated breech and vertex obtained during elective term cesarean deliveries. We compared various cord parameters between the two groups as well as data regarding obstetric history and pregnancy outcome. Results: We evaluated 55 umbilical cords from breech and 55 from vertex deliveries. Umbilical cord length (56.93 cm vs. 63.95 cm, P=0.05), number of coils (5.1±0.4 vs. 11.7±0.6, P<0.0001) and umbilical cord index (UCI) (0.09 coils/cm vs. 0.18 coils/cm, P<0.0001) were all significantly lower for breech presentations and remained significant following multivariate analysis. Conclusion: We document significant differences in umbilical coiling and the UCI between breech and vertex presentation. The precise reason for these differences is still unclear.

description: Fermilab is constructing the Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA) as the centerpiece of the Accelerator R&D Program towards high-intensity circular machines. One of the factors limiting the beam intensity in present circular accelerators is collective instabilities, which can be suppressed by a spread of betatron frequencies (tunes) through the Landau damping mechanism or by an external damper, if the instability is slow enough. The spread is usually created by octupole magnets, which introduce the tune dependence on the amplitude and, in some cases, by a chromatic spread (tune dependence on particle's momentum). The introduction of octupoles usually has both the beneficial (improved Landau damping) and harmful properties, such as a resonant behavior and a reduction of the dynamic aperture. One of the research goals at the IOTA ring is to achieve a large betatron tune spread, while retaining a large dynamic aperture, using conventional octupole magnets in a special but realistic accelerator configuration. In this paper, we present results of computer simulations of an electron beam in the IOTA by particle tracking and the Frequency Map Analysis. The results show that the ring's octupole magnets can be configured to provide a betatron tune shift of 0.08 (for particles at large amplitudes) with the dynamical aperture of over 20 beam sigma for a 150-MeV electron beam. The influence of the synchrotron motion, lattice errors, and magnet imperfections is insignificant for the parameters and levels of tolerances set by the design of the ring. The described octupole insert could be beneficial for enhancing Landau damping in high intensity machines.

description: Es wird eine Methode beschrieben, die für die Auswertung biomedizinischer Signale geeignet ist. Sie besteht darin, die Zeitfunktionen in den Sequenzbereich zu transformieren. Der zur Transformation verwendete Algorithmus nach Andrews-Kane-Pratt ist dem der Fourier-Transformation ähnlich, auf Grund der Eigenschaften der Walsh-Funktionen jedoch wesentlich schneller. Das angeführte Beispiel zeigt, daß die Auswertung der Signale im Spektralbereich bei alternativer Klassifizierung von Pulskurven einen Erfolg von 93% aufweist.
description: A method for classification of medical data using the Walsh transformation is demonstrated. The Walsh spectrum was obtained by the algorithm of Andrews-Kane-Pratt. The spectral points were used to declare the signals normal or abnormal. The example described in this paper shows that in the case of pulse wave the classification is successful in 93 percent.

description: For a Banach space X of R^M-valued functions on a Lipschitz domain, let K(X) ⊂ X be a closed convex set arising from pointwise constraints on the value of the function, its gradient or its divergence, respectively. The main result of the paper establishes, under certain conditions, the density of K(X_0) in K(X_1) where X_0 is densely and continuously embedded in X_1. The proof is constructive, utilizes the theory of mollifiers and can be applied to Sobolev spaces such as H (div,Ω) and W1,p(Ω), in particular. It is also shown that such a density result cannot be expected in general.

description: We show that the scale (conformal) anomaly in field theories leads to new anomalous transport effects that emerge in an external electromagnetic field in an inhomogeneous gravitational background. In inflating geometry the QED scale anomaly locally generates an electric current that flows in opposite direction with respect to background electric field (the scale electric effect). In a static spatially inhomogeneous gravitational background the dissipationless electric current flows transversely both to the magnetic field axis and to the gradient of the inhomogeneity (the scale magnetic effect). The anomalous currents are proportional to the beta function of the theory.

description: We apply the Alcock-Paczynski (AP) test to the stacked voids identified using the large-scale structure galaxy catalog from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). This galaxy catalog is part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 12 and is the final catalog of SDSS-III. We also use 1000 mock galaxy catalogs that match the geometry, density, and clustering properties of the BOSS sample in order to characterize the statistical uncertainties of our measurements and take into account systematic errors such as redshift space distortions. For both BOSS data and mock catalogs, we use the ZOBOV algorithm to identify voids, we stack together all voids with effective radii of 30-100Mpc/h in the redshift range 0.43-0.7, and we accurately measure the shape of the stacked voids. Our tests with the mock catalogs show that we measure the stacked void ellipticity with a statistical precision of 2.6%. We find that the stacked voids in redshift space are slightly squashed along the line of sight, which is consistent with previous studies. We repeat this measurement of stacked void shape in the BOSS data assuming several values of Omega_m within the flat LCDM model, and we compare to the mock catalogs in redshift space in order to perform the AP test. We obtain a constraint of $Ω_m = 0.38^{+0.18}_{-0.15}$ at the 68% confidence level from the AP test. We discuss the various sources of statistical and systematic noise that affect the constraining power of this method. In particular, we find that the measured ellipticity of stacked voids scales more weakly with cosmology than the standard AP prediction, leading to significantly weaker constraints. We discuss how AP constraints will improve in future surveys with larger volumes and densities.

description: The sporadic accretion following the tidal disruption of a star by a super-massive black hole (TDE) leads to a bright UV and soft X-ray flare in the galactic nucleus. The gas and dust surrounding the black hole responses to such a flare with an echo in emission lines and infrared emission. In this paper, we report the detection of long fading mid-IR emission lasting up to 14 years after the flare in four TDE candidates with transient coronal lines using the WISE public data release. We estimate that the reprocessed mid-IR luminosities are in the range between $4\times 10^{42}$ and $2\times 10^{43}$ erg~s$^{-1}$ and dust temperature in the range of 570-800K when WISE first detected these sources three to five years after the flare. Both luminosity and dust temperature decreases with time. We interpret the mid-IR emission as the infrared echo of the tidal disruption flare. We estimate the UV luminosity at the peak flare to be 1 to 30 times $10^{44}$ erg s$^{-1}$ and for warm dust masses to be in the range of 0.05-1.3 Msun within a few parsecs. Our results suggest that the mid-infrared echo is a general signature of TDE in the gas-rich environment.
Humic acid attachment on chitosan-modified silica gel as an economical, efficient, and selective adsorbent for thorium and uranium removal

description: A novel, low-cost adsorbent material was prepared by the immobilization of humic acid on a silica gel surface coated with cross-linked chitosan (SiChiHA). The adsorbent was developed to remove selectively of Th(IV) and U(VI) from aqueous solution, including their pre-concentration and separation from lanthanides and high salinity conditions. A simple waste-less humic acid immobilization method was shown to be successful based on FT-IR, SEM-EDS, and zeta potential characterization results. The adsorbent was found to be stable over a wide pH range, with the highest capacities obtained at pH 3.5 (Th(IV)) and pH 5 (U(VI)). Langmuir model calculations yielded a maximum capacity of 30.6 mg g−1 and 75.4 mg g−1 for Th(IV) and U(VI). The adsorption process was found to be rapid (half concentration was removed within 10 min) and best described by a pseudo-second order rate equation. Increasing NaCl concentration up to 2 mol L−1 or lanthanide concentration up to 100 times did not significantly affect the removal efficiency for either Th(IV) of U(VI). Both elements could be sequentially separated by elution with ammonium citrate and nitric acid, respectively. The adsorption-desorption experiment showed that the adsorbent could be used for at least five cycles without significant capacity loss. This study provides insight into the development of low-cost adsorbent with practical functionality, including separation and regeneration ability, the advantageous properties scarcely reported in low-cost adsorbent literature.

description: We use two new hydrodynamical simulations of $Λ$CDM and $f(R)$ gravity to test the methodology used by Wilcox et al. 2015 (W15) in constraining the effects of a fifth force on the profiles of clusters of galaxies. We construct realistic simulated stacked weak lensing and X-ray surface brightness cluster profiles from these cosmological simulations, and then use these data projected along various lines-of-sight to test the spherical symmetry of our stacking procedure. We also test the applicability of the NFW profile to model weak lensing profiles of clusters in $f(R)$ gravity. Finally, we test the validity of the analytical model developed in W15 against the simulated profiles. Overall, we find our methodology is robust and broadly agrees with these simulated data. We also apply our full Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) analysis from W15 to our simulated X-ray and lensing profiles, providing consistent constraints on the modified gravity parameters as obtained from the real cluster data, e.g. for our $Λ$CDM simulation we obtain $|f_{\rm{R}0}| < 8.3 \times 10^{-5}$ (95% CL), which is in good agreement with the W15 measurement of $|f_{\rm{R}0}| < 6 \times 10^{-5}$. Overall, these tests confirm the power of our methodology which can now be applied to larger cluster samples available with the next generation surveys.
