Exploring circular polarization in the CMB due to conventional sources of cosmic birefringence

description: The circular polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is usually taken to be zero since it is not generated by Thomson scattering. Here we explore the actual level of circular polarization in the CMB generated by conventional cosmological sources of birefringence. We consider two classes of mechanisms for birefringence. One is alignment of the matter to produce an anisotropic susceptibility tensor: the hydrogen spins can be aligned either by density perturbations or CMB anisotropies themselves. The other is anisotropy of the radiation field coupled to the non-linear response of the medium to electromagnetic fields: this can occur either via photon-photon scattering (non-linear response of the vacuum); atomic hyperpolarizability (non-linear response of neutral atoms); or plasma delay (non-linear response of free electrons). The strongest effect comes from photon-photon scattering from recombination at a level of $\sim 10^{-14}$ K. Our results are consistent with a negligible circular polarization of the CMB in comparison with the linear polarization or the sensitivity of current and near-term experiments.

Exact Correlators on the Wilson Loop in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM: Localization, Defect CFT, and Integrability

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

description: We compute a set of correlation functions of operator insertions on the 1/8 BPS Wilson loop in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM by employing supersymmetric localization, OPE and the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization. These correlators exhibit a simple determinant structure, are position-independent and form a topological subsector, but depend nontrivially on the 't Hooft coupling and the rank of the gauge group. When applied to the 1/2 BPS circular (or straight) Wilson loop, our results provide an infinite family of exact defect CFT data, including the structure constants of protected defect primaries of arbitrary length inserted on the loop. At strong coupling, we show precise agreement with a direct calculation using perturbation theory around the AdS$_2$ string worldsheet. We also explain the connection of our results to the "generalized Bremsstrahlung functions" previously computed from integrability techniques, reproducing the known results in the planar limit as well as obtaining some of their finite N generalizations. Furthermore, we show that the correlators at large N can be recast as simple integrals of products of polynomials (known as Q-functions) that appear in the Quantum Spectral Curve approach. This suggests an interesting interplay between localization, defect CFT and integrability.

description: We derive and investigate empirically arbitrage pricing restrictions among three bonds of RJR Nabisco Holdings Capital Corporation. The three RJR bonds are virtually identical in all respects, except for the form in which interest is paid. We document large and persistent errors in the market pricing of the three bonds over a two-year period. The cash-paying bond was consistently more expensive than either the pay-in-kind or deferred-coupon bonds. The magnitude of the pricing errors is too large to be explained by market imperfections.
Information and entropy in quantum Brownian motion: Thermodynamic entropy versus von Neumann entropy
Creators: name: Hoerhammer, Christian

Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We compare the thermodynamic entropy of a quantum Brownian oscillator derived from the partition function of the subsystem with the von Neumann entropy of its reduced density matrix. At low temperatures we find deviations between these two entropies which are due to the fact that the Brownian particle and its environment are entangled. We give an explanation for these findings and point out that these deviations become important in cases where statements about the information capacity of the subsystem are associated with thermodynamic properties, as it is the case for the Landauer principle.

description: We suggest to isolate the loop-induced gluon-initiated component ($gg\to ZH$) for associated $ZH$ production by using the similarity of the Drell-Yan-like component for $ZH$ production to the $WH$ process. We argue that the cross-section ratio of the latter two processes can be predicted with high theoretical accuracy. Comparing it to the experimental $ZH/WH$ cross-section ratio should allow to probe for New Physics in the $gg\to ZH$ component at the HL-LHC. We consider typical BSM scenarios in order to exemplify the effect they would have on the proposed observable.

description: This paper presents the new approach in implementation of analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that is based on Hopfield neural-network architecture. Hopfield neural ADC (NADC) is a type of recurrent neural network that is effective in solving simple optimization problems, such as analog-to-digital conversion. The main idea behind the proposed design is to use multiple 2-bit Hopfield NADCs operating as quantizers in parallel, where analog input signal to each successive 2-bit Hopfield ADC block is passed through a voltage level shifter. This is followed by a neural network encoder to remove the quantization errors. In traditional Hopfield NADC based designs, increasing the number of bits could require proper scaling of the network parameters, in particular digital output operating region. Furthermore, the resolution improvement of traditional Hopfield NADC creates digital error that increases with the increasing number of bits. The proposed design is scalable in number of bits and number of quantization levels, and can maintain the magnitude of digital output code within a manageable operating voltage range.

We model the nonlinear clustering using a modified Halo Model proposed to account for WDM effects. We estimate that from this observable alone a lower bound of $m_{\text{wdm}}>647$\,eV ($m_{\text{wdm}}>126$\,eV) for the LSST (DES) case could be obtained.

description: The authors examined the relationship between types of organizational change (i.e., changes across multiple domains, e.g., employees, structure, and technology) and the incidence of latent errors (i.e., potentially consequential deviations from rules and procedures), using data from internal audit reports and interviews with managers in 80 business units in a large financial institution. Consistent with their premise that latent errors result from the increased demands on organizational attention associated with organizational change, the authors found that changes in multiple organizational domains was positively related to the frequency of latent errors. Moreover, this relationship was only observed for changes that had an adverse impact on managerial time, expertise, and/or work coordination. Implications for research on organizational change and latent errors, as well as for managers, are discussed.

description: We have performed systematic first principles study of the electronic structure and band topology properties of $LnPn$ compounds ($Ln$=Ce, Pr, Gd, Sm, Yb; $Pn$=Sb, Bi). Assuming the $f$-electrons are well localized in these materials, both hybrid functional and modified Becke-Johnson calculations yield electronic structure in good agreement with experimental observations, while generalized gradient approximation calculations severely overestimate the band inversions. From Ce to Yb, a systematic reduction of band inversion with respect to the increasing $Ln$ atomic number is observed, and $\mathcal{Z}_2$ for Ce$Pn$ and Yb$Pn$ are [1;000] and [0;000], respectively. In both hybrid functional and modified Becke-Johns calculations, a topologically nontrivial to trivial transition is expected around SmSb for the antimonides and around DyBi for the bismuthides. Such variation is related with lanthanide contraction, but is different from simple pressure effect.

The Evolution of Bias - Generalized

description: Fry (1996) showed that galaxy bias has the tendency to evolve towards unity, i.e. in the long run, the galaxy distribution tends to trace that of matter. Generalizing slightly Fry's reasoning, we show that his conclusion remains valid in theories of modified gravity (or equivalently, complex clustered dark energy). This is not surprising: as long as both galaxies and matter are subject to the same force, dynamics would drive them towards tracing each other. This holds, for instance, in theories where both galaxies and matter move on geodesics. This relaxation of bias towards unity is tempered by cosmic acceleration, however: the bias tends towards unity but does not quite make it, unless the formation bias were close to unity. Our argument is extended in a straightforward manner to the case of a stochastic or nonlinear bias. An important corollary is that dynamical evolution could imprint a scale dependence on the large scale galaxy bias. This is especially pronounced if non-standard gravity introduces new scales to the problem: the bias at different scales relaxes at different rates, the larger scales generally more slowly and retaining a longer memory of the initial bias. A consistency test of the current (general relativity + uniform dark energy) paradigm is therefore to look for departure from a scale independent bias on large scales. A simple way is to measure the relative bias of different populations of galaxies which are at different stages of bias relaxation. Lastly, we comment on the possibility of directly testing the Poisson equation on cosmological scales, as opposed to indirectly through the growth factor.

description: Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications have the potential to revolutionize conventional healthcare practices, creating a more efficient and patient-centred approach with improved outcomes. This guide discuses eighteen AI-based applications in clinical decision-making, precision medicine, operational efficiency, and predictive analytics, including a real-world example of AI’s role in public health during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, we address ethical questions, transparency, data privacy, bias, consent, accountability, and liability, and the strategic measures that must be taken to align AI with ethical principles, legal frameworks, legacy information technology systems, and employee skills and knowledge. We emphasize the importance of informed and strategic approaches to harness AI’s potential and manage its challenges. Moreover, this guide underscores the importance of evaluating and integrating new skills and competencies to navigate and use AI-based technologies in healthcare management, such as technological literacy, long-term strategic vision, change management skills, ethical decision-making, and alignment with patient needs

description: ADHD is a heterogeneous disorder that is highly impairing. Early, accurate diagnosis maximizes long-term positive outcomes for youth with ADHD. Tests of executive functioning (EF) are potential tools for screening and differential diagnoses for ADHD; however, previous research has been inconsistent regarding the specificity and magnitude of EF deficits across ADHD subtypes. Here we overcome these limitations by: (1) employing more rigorous methods to conceptualize ADHD in a way that better captures heterogeneity of expression, and (2) by applying a more comprehensive, reliable battery of EF tasks to this association. We tested 1548 children and adolescents (ages 7-15 years) from the Texas Twin Project, a population-based cohort with a diverse socioeconomic and ethnic composition. EF and processing speed were measured in-laboratory with a comprehensive test battery, while ADHD and sociodemographic characteristics were assessed via parent report. We show that EF deficits are isolated to the inattention domain of ADHD. Moreover, we found that the association between EF task performance and inattention remains stable across sociodemographic groups. Our results demonstrate that failures of executive control are selectively manifested as covert inattentive symptoms, such as trouble with organization, forgetfulness, and distractedness, rather than overt symptoms, such as inappropriate talkativeness and interruption. We anticipate that EF tests could be widely useful in clinical and educational settings due to their specificity regarding particular subtypes of ADHD behaviors and their broad predictive validity across key demographic subgroups
An Efficient, Second Order Accurate, Universal Generalized Riemann Problem Solver Based on the HLLI Riemann Solver

description: The Riemann problem, and the associated generalized Riemann problem, are increasingly seen as the important building blocks for modern higher order Godunov-type schemes. In the past, building a generalized Riemann problem solver was seen as an intricately mathematical task for complicated physical or engineering problems because the associated Riemann problem is different for each hyperbolic system of interest. This paper changes that situation. The HLLI Riemann solver is a recently-proposed Riemann solver that is universal in that it is applicable to any hyperbolic system, whether in conservation form or with non-conservative products. The HLLI Riemann solver is also complete in the sense that if it is given a complete set of eigenvectors, it represents all waves with minimal dissipation. It is, therefore, very attractive to build a generalized Riemann problem solver version of the HLLI Riemann solver. This is the task that is accomplished in the present paper. We show that at second order, the generalized Riemann problem version of the HLLI Riemann solver is easy to design. Our GRP solver is also complete and universal because it inherits those good properties from original HLLI Riemann solver. We also show how our GRP solver can be adapted to the solution of hyperbolic systems with stiff source terms. Our generalized HLLI Riemann solver is easy to implement and performs robustly and well over a range of test problems. All implementation-related details are presented. Results from several stringent test problems are shown. These test problems are drawn from many different hyperbolic systems, and include hyperbolic systems in conservation form; with non-conservative products; and with stiff source terms. The present generalized Riemann problem solver performs well on all of them.

description: One of the classical problems of economics is to explain why people hold money. The variety of attempts to derive or explain the existence of a demand for money have made the existence of a non-zero -demand depend x>n legal restrictions, -uncertainty, the expectation of price changes and many other factors. The most frequent explanation is the Keynesian explanation which makes the demand for money depend on a number of ostensibly separate Motives" for holding money. This explanation differs from its classical forebears because a variety of motives are introduced in place of the single classical motive —"the transactions motive. The Keynesian and.the classical arguments both suffer from the same defect; they fail to relate the explanation of money holding to economic theory. Holding money is not explained as the result of maximizing behavior by individuals and firms -- the ultimate money holders.

description: The aggregate in an asphalt mixture is coated with mastic consisting of bitumen (dilute phase) and ﬁller (particulates phase). The interaction of bitumen and ﬁller and packing of ﬁller plays an important role in the properties of mastics. The micromechanics models from composite rheology can be used to predict the stiffening effect of a suspension. In this research, the stiffening effect of ﬁllers was investigated based on the rheology of mastic. The frequency sweep tests in a dynamic shear rheometer at different temperatures were performed within a linear viscoelastic range to construct the master curves. The volume fractions were expressed as compositional volumes of ﬁller in mastic. The particle shape and surface texture are determined through microscopy. We used six micromechanics-based models to predict the stiffening potential of ﬁllers in mastics. The models include Maron–Pierce, Lewis Nielsen, Mooney, Krieger–Dougherty, Chong, Robinson, and Hashin Models. The results show that the same volume content of ﬁller has a different effective volume. The ﬁllers increase the stiffening effect of the composite, especially at high temperatures. The behaviour of ﬁllers with similar effective volume and packing is identical. The ﬁller type affects the stiffening of mastics. Micromechanics modelling results show that most models show an accurate stiffening effect at lower concentrations with the exception of the Chong Model. The Maron–Pierce Model under-estimates the stiffening potential for granite mastic at higher concentrations beyond the 30% ﬁller content fraction. The value of maximum packing fraction and Einstien coefﬁcient (KE) in the Mooney model are signiﬁcantly different from other models for limestone and granite, respectively. The line of equality graph shows good agreement of measured and predicted stiffness. It is difﬁcult to precisely model the mastic data with any single model due to the presence of complex stiffening effects beyond volume ﬁlling.

description: We consider a distributed resource allocation problem in networks where each transmitter-receiver pair aims at maximizing its local utility function by adjusting its action matrix, which belongs to a given feasible set. This problem has been addressed recently by applying a matrix exponential learning (MXL) algorithm which has a very appealing convergence rate. In this learning algorithm, however, each transmitter must know an estimate of the gradient matrix of the local utility. The knowledge of the gradient matrix at the transmitters incurs a high signaling overhead especially that the matrix size increases with the dimension of the action matrix. In this paper, we therefore investigate two strategies in order to decrease the informational exchange per iteration of the algorithm. In the first strategy, each receiver sends at each iteration part of the elements of the gradient matrix with respect to a certain probability. In the second strategy, each receiver feeds back sporadically the whole gradient matrix. We focus on the analysis of the convergence of the MXL algorithm to optimum under these two strategies. We prove that the algorithm can still converge to optimum almost surely. Upper bounds of the average convergence rate are also derived in both situations with general step-size setting, from which we can clearly see the impact of the incompleteness of the feedback information. The proposed algorithms are applied to solve the energy efficiency maximization problem in a multicarrier multi-user MIMO network. Simulation results further corroborate our claim.

description: We construct a multiplicity distribution characterized by large factorial cumulants (integrated correlation functions) from a simple combination of two ordinary multiplicity distributions characterized by small factorial cumulants. We find that such a model, which could be interpreted as representing two event classes, reproduces the preliminary data for the proton cumulants measured by the STAR collaboration at $7.7$ GeV very well. This model then predicts very large values for the fifth and sixth order factorial cumulants, which can be tested in experiment.

description: Recognition of human emotions from the imaging templates is useful in a wide variety of human-computer interaction and intelligent systems applications. However, the automatic recognition of facial expressions using image template matching techniques suffer from the natural variability with facial features and recording conditions. In spite of the progress achieved in facial emotion recognition in recent years, the effective and computationally simple feature selection and classification technique for emotion recognition is still an open problem. In this paper, we propose an efficient and straightforward facial emotion recognition algorithm to reduce the problem of inter-class pixel mismatch during classification. The proposed method includes the application of pixel normalization to remove intensity offsets followed-up with a Min-Max metric in a nearest neighbor classifier that is capable of suppressing feature outliers. The results indicate an improvement of recognition performance from 92.85% to 98.57% for the proposed Min-Max classification method when tested on JAFFE database. The proposed emotion recognition technique outperforms the existing template matching methods.

description: We study a simple 2-d model representing two fields with different mass and a 3-point coupling term. The phase shift in the resonating 2-particle channel is determined from the energy spectrum obtained in Monte Carlo simulations on finite lattices. Masses and wave function renormalization constants of the fields as well as mass and width of the resonance are determined and discussed. The representation of scattering states in terms of the considered operators is analysed.

description: We provide a precise description of the Higgs boson transverse momentum distribution including top and bottom quark contributions, that is valid for transverse momenta in the range mb < pt < mt, where mb and mt are the bottom and top quark masses. This description is based on a combination of fixed next-to-leading order (NLO) results with next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) transverse momentum resummation. We show that ambiguities in the resummation procedure for the b-quark loops are of the same order as the related fixed-order uncertainties. We conclude that the current uncertainty in the top-bottom interference contribution to the Higgs transverse momentum spectrum is O(20%).

description: The emergence of power retailers, such as Wal-mart, Best Buy, and Home Depot, has significantly changed the competitive landscape in the retailing industry over the past two decades. These power retailers frequently dominate other small retailers by charging lower prices (market dominance). Some also pursue the strategy of dominating the distribution channel by participating in setting the wholesale price (channel dominance). Indeed, in the case of Wal-mart, it exercises both market and channel dominance. Some upstream suppliers complain of being squeezed by the power retailers but at the same time are entering into close partnerships with them. Others, like Procter & Gamble, work in close cooperation with power retailers like Wal-mart, and acknowledge the benefits of the symbiotic relationship. In this paper, we investigate the dominance strategy that a self-interested power retailer should pursue using a game-theoretic model. We also analyze how a strategy of dominance pursued by a power retailer, whether it is market dominance or channel dominance or dual dominance, affects other members of the channel. We show that market dominance tends to benefit the power and weak retailers alike at the expense of the supplier. Channel dominance benefits both the supplier and the power retailer without necessarily harming the weak retailer. Interestingly, dual dominance is not always the best strategy for a self-interested power retailer to pursue. We further show that even when the power retailer chooses to pursue the strategy of dual dominance, the weak retailer, as well as the supplier, can all become better off relative to the case where the channel is free of any dominance. We also investigate consumer welfare and social welfare under the various types of dominance.
Drift and its mediation in terrestrial orbits

description: The slow deformation of terrestrial orbits in the medium range, subject to lunisolar resonances, is well approximated by a family of Hamiltonian flow with $2.5$ degree-of-freedom. The action variables of the system may experience chaotic variations and large drift that we may quantify. Using variational chaos indicators, we compute high-resolution portraits of the action space. Such refined meshes allow to reveal the existence of tori and structures filling chaotic regions. Our elaborate computations allow us to isolate precise initial conditions near specific zones of interest and study their asymptotic behaviour in time. Borrowing classical techniques of phase- space visualisation, we highlight how the drift is mediated by the complement of the numerically detected KAM tori.

description: Effective presentation skills can help to succeed in business, career and academy. This paper presents the design of speech assessment during the oral presentation and the algorithm for speech evaluation based on criteria of optimal intonation. As the pace of the speech and its optimal intonation varies from language to language, developing an automatic identification of language during the presentation is required. Proposed algorithm was tested with presentations delivered in Kazakh language. For testing purposes the features of Kazakh phonemes were extracted using MFCC and PLP methods and created a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) [5], [5] of Kazakh phonemes. Kazakh vowel formants were defined and the correlation between the deviation rate in fundamental frequency and the liveliness of the speech to evaluate intonation of the presentation was analyzed. It was established that the threshold value between monotone and dynamic speech is 0.16 and the error for intonation evaluation is 19%.
Odd-frequency Pairing in the Edge States of Superconducting Pnictides in the Coexistence Phase with Antiferromagnetism

description: In several members of the pnictide materials, spin density wave order coexists with superconductivity over a range of dopings and temperature. In this paper we show that odd-frequency superconductivity emerges on the edges of pnictides in such a coexistence phase. In particular, the breaking of spin-rotation symmetry by SDW and translation symmetry by the edge can lead to the development of odd-frequency spin-triplet Cooper pairing on edges of superconducting pnictide samples. In this case, the odd-frequency pairing has even parity components, which are immune to disorder. Our results show that pnictides are a natural platform to realize odd frequency superconductivity, which is a new quantum phase and has been mainly searched for in heterostructures of magnetic and superconducting materials. The emergence of odd-frequency pairing on the edges and in the defects can be potentially detected in magnetic response measurements.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: This chapter is about the institutionalization of organizational change. That is, it is concerned with the persistence of organizational change. Lewin (1951) describes change in terms of three processes--unfreezing, moving, and refreezing. Institutionalization is concerned with the process of refreezing. After a new policy or program is introduced into an organization, we plan to focus on factors that affect its persistence. A whole series of questions underlie this problem statement: What does institutionalization or persistence mean? Row do we describe different degrees of institutionalization? What are the critical processes that affect institutionalization? What are the critical predictors? These questions serve to organize this discussion.

description: In this work, we present an open access database for surface and vacancy-formation energies using classical force-fields (FFs). These quantities are essential in understanding diffusion behavior, nanoparticle formation and catalytic activities. FFs are often designed for a specific application, hence, this database allows the user to understand whether a FF is suitable for investigating particular defect and surface-related material properties. The FF results are compared to density functional theory and experimental data whenever applicable for validation. At present, we have 17,506 surface energies and 1,000 vacancy formation energies calculation in our database and the database is still growing. All the data generated, and the computational tools used, are shared publicly at the following websites https://www.ctcms.nist.gov/~knc6/periodic.html, https://jarvis.nist.gov and https://github.com/usnistgov/jarvis . Approximations used during the high-throughput calculations are clearly mentioned. Using some of the example cases, we show how our data can be used to directly compare different FFs for a material and to interpret experimental findings such as using Wulff construction for predicting equilibrium shape of nanoparticles. Similarly, the vacancy formation energies data can be useful in understanding diffusion related properties.
