description: We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of primary and post-collision mechanisms involved when colliding low energy multiply charged ions with van der Waals dimers. The collision dynamics is investigated using a classical calculation based on the Coulombic Over-the- Barrier Model adapted to rare-gas dimer targets. Despite its simplicity, the model predictions are found in very good agreement with experimental results obtained using COLd Target Recoil Ion Momentum Spectroscopy (COLTRIMS), both for the relative yields of the different relaxation processes and for the associated transverse momentum exchange distributions between the projectile and the target. This agreement shows to which extent van der Waals dimers can be assimilated to independent atoms.

Unitarity and Fermion Mass Generatation
Creators: name: Golden, Mitchell

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Some years ago Appelquist and Chanowitz considered the scattering of fermion--anti-fermion into a pair of longitudinal gauge bosons. Their calculation established that unitarity implies that the physics giving mass to a quark of mass $m_f$ must be below a mass scale of $16 πv^2 / m_f$ ($v=246$ GeV). This bound is a bit difficult to interpret, because the unitarity of gauge boson scattering requires in any case that there be new physics, such as a Higgs boson, with a mass lighter than this. This paper re-examines the Appelquist-Chanowitz bound in order to clarify its meaning. This work uses toy models with a singlet Higgs boson to unitarize gauge boson scattering, and considers other possibilities for the new physics affecting the fermion mass. This new physics has the effect of changing the Higgs boson--fermion--anti-fermion coupling. New physics cannot significantly alter this coupling unless it is substantially lighter than the Appelquist-Chanowitz bound.

Electric control of emergent magnonic spin current and dynamic multiferroicity in magnetic insulators at finite temperatures

description: Conversion of thermal energy into magnonic spin currents and/or effective electric polarization promises new device functionalities. A versatile approach is presented here for generating and controlling open circuit magnonic spin currents and an effective multiferroicity at a uniform temperature with the aid of spatially inhomogeneous, external, static electric fields. This field applied to a ferromagnetic insulator with a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya type coupling changes locally the magnon dispersion and modifies the density of thermally excited magnons in a region of the scale of the field inhomogeneity. The resulting gradient in the magnon density can be viewed as a gradient in the effective magnon temperature. This effective thermal gradient together with local magnon dispersion result in an open-circuit, electric field controlled magnonic spin current. In fact, for a moderate variation in the external electric field the predicted magnonic spin current is on the scale of the spin (Seebeck) current generated by a comparable external temperature gradient. Analytical methods supported by full-fledge numerics confirm that both, a finite temperature and an inhomogeneous electric field are necessary for this emergent non-equilibrium phenomena. The proposal can be integrated in magnonic and multiferroic circuits, for instance to convert heat into electrically controlled pure spin current using for example nanopatterning, without the need to generate large thermal gradients on the nanoscale.

Disk Accretion Onto High-Mass Planets

description: We analyze the nonlinear, two-dimensional response of a gaseous, viscous protoplanetary disk to the presence of a planet of one Jupiter mass (1 M_J) and greater that orbits a 1 solar mass star by using the ZEUS hydrodynamics code with high resolution near the planet's Roche lobe. The planet is assumed to be in a circular orbit about the central star and is not allowed to migrate. A gap is formed about the orbit of the planet, but there is a nonaxisymmetric flow through the gap and onto the planet. The gap partitions the disk into an inner (outer) disk that extends inside (outside) the planet's orbit. For a 1 M_J planet and typical disk parameters, the accretion through the gap onto the planet is highly efficient. For typical disk parameters, the mass doubling time scale is less than 10^5 years, considerably shorter than the disk lifetime. Following shocks near the L1 and L2 Lagrange points, disk material enters the Roche lobe in the form of two gas streams. Shocks occur within the Roche lobe as the gas streams collide, and shocks lead to rapid inflow towards the planet within much of planet's Roche lobe. Shocks also propagate in the inner and outer disks that orbit the star. For higher mass planets (of order 6 M_J), the flow rate onto the planet is considerably reduced, which suggests an upper mass limit to planets in the range of 10 M_J. This rate reduction is related to the fact that the gap width increases relative to the Roche (Hill sphere) radius with increasing planetary mass. The flow in the gap affects planetary migration. For the 1 M_J planet case, mass can penetrate from the outer disk to the inner disk, so that the inner disk is not depleted. The results suggest that most of the mass in gas giant planets is acquired by flows through gaps.

description: This paper gives a brief overview of the manifestly covariant canonical gauge gravity (CCGG) that is rooted in the De Donder-Weyl Hamiltonian formulation of relativistic field theories, and the proven methodology of the canonical transformation theory. That framework derives, from a few basic physical and mathematical assumptions, equations describing generic matter and gravity dynamics with the spin connection emerging as a Yang Mills-type gauge field. While the interaction of any matter field with spacetime is fixed just by the transformation property of that field, a concrete gravity ansatz is introduced by the choice of the free (kinetic) gravity Hamiltonian. The key elements of this approach are discussed and its implications for particle dynamics and cosmology presented. Among the results are especially: - Anomalous Pauli coupling of spinors to curvature and torsion of spacetime, - spacetime with (A)dS ground state, inertia, torsion and geometrical vacuum energy, - Zero-energy balance of the Universe leading to a vanishing cosmological constant and torsional dark energy.

description: Understanding the variation in species interactions along environmental stress gradients is crucial for making robust ecological predictions about community responses to changing environmental conditions. The facilitation-competition framework has provided a strong basis for predictions (e.g. the stress-gradient hypothesis, SGH), yet the mechanisms behind patterns in animal interactions on stress gradients are poorly explored in particular for mobile animals. Here, we proposed a conceptual framework modelling changes in facilitation costs and benefits along stress gradients and experimentally tested this framework by measuring fitness outcomes of benefactor–beneficiary interactions across resource quality levels. Three arthropod consumer models from a broad array of environmental conditions were used including aquatic detritivores, potato moths and rainforest carrion beetles. We detected a shift to more positive interactions at increasing levels of stress thereby supporting the application of the SGH to mobile animals. While most benefactors paid no significant cost of facilitation, an increase in potato moth beneficiary's growth at high resource stress triggered costs for benefactors. This study is the first to experimentally show that both costs and benefits function simultaneously on stress gradients for animals. The proposed conceptual framework could guide future studies examining species interaction outcomes for both animals and plants in an increasingly stressed world.

description: The Debye screening mass for a quark-gluon plasma at high temperature is calculated to next-to-leading order in the QCD coupling constant from the correlator of two Polyakov loops. The result agrees with the screening mass defined by the location of the pole in the gluon propagator as calculated by Rebhan. It is logarithmically sensitive to nonperturbative effects associated with the screening of static chromomagnetic fields.

description: Asymmetric schemes have widespread applications in the 3D video transmission pipeline. The significance of eye dominance becomes a concern when designing such schemes. In this paper, in order to investigate the effect of eye dominance on the perceptual 3D video quality, a database of representative asymmetric stereoscopic sequences is prepared and the overall 3D quality of these sequences is evaluated through subjective experiments. Experiment results showed that viewers find an asymmetric video more pleasant when the view with higher quality is projected to their dominant eye. Moreover, the eye dominance changes the mean opinion quality score by 16 % at most, a result caused by slight asymmetric video compression. For all other representative types of asymmetry, the statistical difference is much lower and in some cases even negligible.
Unifying Logarithmic and Factorial Behavior in High Energy Scattering

description: The elegant instanton calculus of Lipatov and others used to find factorially-divergent behavior (g^N * N!) for N*g >> 1 in g*phi^4 perturbation theory is strictly only applicable when all external momenta vanish; a description of high-energy 2 --> N scattering with N massive particles is beyond the scope of such techniques. On the other hand, a standard multiperipheral treatment of scattering with its emphasis on leading logarithms gives a reasonable picture of high-energy behavior but does not result in factorial divergences. Using a straightforward graphical analysis we present a unified picture of both these phenomena as they occur in the two-particle total cross section of g*phi^4 theory. We do not attempt to tame the unitarity violations associated with either multiperipheralism or the Lipatov technique.

description: Ti-Ta-X (X = Al, Sn, Zr) compounds are emerging candidates as high-temperature shape memory alloys (HTSMAs). The stability of the one-way shape memory effect (1WE), the exploitable pseudoelastic (PE) strain intervals as well as the transformation temperature in these alloys depend strongly on composition, resulting in a trade-off between a stable shape memory effect and a high transformation temperature. In this work, experimental measurements and first-principles calculations are combined to rationalize the effect of alloying a third component to Ti-Ta based HTSMAs. Most notably, an $\textit{increase}$ in the transformation temperature with increasing Al content is detected experimentally in Ti-Ta-Al for low Ta concentrations, in contrast to the generally observed dependence of the transformation temperature on composition in Ti-Ta-X. This inversion of trend is confirmed by the $\textit{ab-initio}$ calculations. Furthermore, a simple analytical model based on the $\textit{ab-initio}$ data is derived. The model can not only explain the unusual composition dependence of the transformation temperature in Ti-Ta-Al, but also provide a fast and elegant tool for a qualitative evaluation of other ternary systems. This is exemplified by predicting the trend of the transformation temperature of Ti-Ta-Sn and Ti-Ta-Zr alloys, yielding a remarkable agreement with available experimental data.

description: The spatial distribution of Ly-alpha forest absorption systems towards ten QSOs has been analysed to search for large-scale structure over the redshift range 2.2 < z < 3.4. The QSOs form a closely spaced group on the sky and are concentrated within a 1 deg^2 field. We have employed a technique based on the first and second moments of the transmission probability density function which is capable of identifying and assessing the significance of regions of over- or underdense Ly-alpha absorption. We find evidence for large-scale structure in the distribution of Ly-alpha forest absorption at the > 99 per cent confidence level. In individual spectra we find overdense Ly-alpha absorption on scales of up to 1200 km s^-1. There is also strong evidence for correlated absorption across line of sight pairs separated by < 3 h^-1 proper Mpc (q_0 = 0.5). For larger separations the cross-correlation signal becomes progressively less significant.

description: Late accretion models for formation of the Galactic halo require that many Galactic satellite galaxies have been cannibalised into the halo field. Comparison of the metallicity and age distribution function of stars in the surviving satellites with the apparently exclusively old stars in the field halo can constrain the importance of any such process. We have developed a new objective technique to determine star formation histories in dSph galaxies. We apply this technique to the surviving Galactic satellites, deducing an approximately uniform distribution of ages for the constituents, quite unlike the halo field stars. Thus, late accretion did not play a substantial part in Galactic halo formation.

description: The smallness of flavor changing neutral currents constrains the soft parameter space of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. These low energy constraints are translated to the soft parameter space generated at some high energy scale $\Mgut$. For gaugino masses larger than the scalar masses and non-universal $A$-terms the constraints are significantly diluted at $\Mgut$ and do allow for the possibility of non-universal scalar masses. The strongest constraints arise in the slepton sector of the theory.

description: We have studied the signals from axion-like particles (ALPs) as dark matter mediators from celestial objects such as neutron stars, brown dwarfs or white dwarfs. We consider the accumulation of dark matter inside the celestial objects using the multiscatter capturing process. The production of ALP from the dark matter annihilation can escape the celestial object and decay into gamma-rays and neutrinos before reaching the Earth. We investigate our model using gamma-ray observations from Fermi and H.E.S.S. and neutrino observations from IceCube and ANTARES. The effective Lagrangian approach allows us to place constraints on the ALP-photon and ALP-fermion couplings. In the gamma-ray channel, our results are able to rule out the existence of ALP with mass up to $\sim \mathcal{O}(10)$ GeV. On the other hand, the neutrino observations can be used to probe a higher mass range with ALP mass up to $\sim \mathcal{O}(100)$ GeV.

description: We use a random search technique to find quantum gate sequences that implement perfect quantum state preparation or unitary operator synthesis with arbitrary targets. This approach is based on the recent discovery that there is a large multiplicity of quantum circuits that achieve unit fidelity in performing a given target operation, even at the minimum number of single-qubit and two-qubit gates needed to achieve unit fidelity. We show that the fraction of perfect-fidelity quantum circuits increases rapidly as soon as the circuit size exceeds the minimum circuit size required for achieving unit fidelity. This result implies that near-optimal quantum circuits for a variety of quantum information processing tasks can be identified relatively easily by trying only a few randomly chosen quantum circuits and optimizing their parameters. In addition to analyzing the case where the CNOT gate is the elementary two-qubit gate, we consider the possibility of using alternative two-qubit gates. In particular, we analyze the case where the two-qubit gate is the B gate, which is known to reduce the minimum quantum circuit size for two-qubit operations. We apply the random search method to the problem of decomposing the 4-qubit Toffoli gate and find a 15 CNOT-gate decomposition.

A noniterative sample size procedure for tests based on t distributions
Creators: name: Tang, Yongqiang
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: A noniterative sample size procedure is proposed for a general hypothesis test based on the t distribution by modifying and extending Guenther's (1981) approach for the one sample and two sample t tests. The generalized procedure is employed to determine the sample size for treatment comparisons using the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and the mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) in randomized clinical trials. The sample size is calculated by adding a few simple correction terms to the sample size from the normal approximation to account for the nonnormality of the t statistic and lower order variance terms, which are functions of the covariates in the model. But it does not require specifying the covariate distribution. The noniterative procedure is suitable for superiority tests, noninferiority tests and a special case of the tests for equivalence or bioequivalence, and generally yields the exact or nearly exact sample size estimate after rounding to an integer. The method for calculating the exact power of the two sample t test with unequal variance in superiority trials is extended to equivalence trials. We also derive accurate power formulae for ANCOVA and MMRM, and the formula for ANCOVA is exact for normally distributed covariates. Numerical examples demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed methods particularly in small samples.

description: We present results from a BeppoSAX observation of the rich cluster Abell 3266. The broad band spectrum (2-50 keV) of the cluster, when fitted with an optically thin thermal emission model, yields a temperature of 8.1 +/- 0.2 keV and a metal abundance of 0.17 +/- 0.02 in solar units, and with no evidence of a hard X-ray excess in the PDS spectrum. By performing a spatially resolved spectral analysis we find that the projected temperature drops with increasing radius, going from ~ 10 keV at the cluster core to ~ 5 keV at about 1.5 Mpc. Our BeppoSAX temperature profile is in good agreement with the ASCA temperature profile of Markevitch et al. (1998). From our two-dimensional temperature map we find that the gradient is observed in all azimuthal directions. The temperature gradient may have been caused by a recent merger event also responsible for a velocity dispersion gradient measured in the optical band. The projected metal abundance profile and two-dimensional map are both consistent with being constant.

description: The generalization of the effective action [1] of the quark--antiquark system in the confining vacuum is performed for the case of arbitrary quark masses. The interaction of quarks is described by the averaged Wilson loop for which we use the minimal area law asymptotics. The system is quantized by the path integral method and the quantum Hamiltonian is obtained. It contains not only quark degrees of freedom but also the string energy density. As well as in the equal masses case [1] two dynamical regimes are found [2]: for large orbital excitations ($l \gg 1$) the system is represented as rotating string, which leads to asymptotically linear Regge trajectories, while at small $l$ one obtains a potential-like relativistic or nonrelativistic regime. In the limiting cases of light-light and heavy-light mesons a unified description is developed [2]. For the Regge trajectories one obtains nearly straight-line patterns with the slope very close to $1/2 πσ$ and $1/ πσ$ correspondingly. The upper bound on the light quark(s) masses which doesn't change considerably this property of the trajectories is also found.

description: We present constraints on the cosmological constant lambda_0 and the density parameter Omega_0 from joint constraints from the analyses of gravitational lensing statistics of the Jodrell Bank-VLA Astrometric Survey (JVAS), optical gravitational lens surveys from the literature and CMB anisotropies. This is the first time that quantitative joint constraints involving lensing statistics and CMB anisotropies have been presented. Within the assumptions made, we achieve very tight constraints on both lambda_0 and Omega_0. These assumptions are cold dark matter models, no tensor components, no reionisation, CMB temperature T_CMB=2.728, number of neutrinos n_nu=3, helium abundance Y_He=0.246, spectral index n_s=1.0, Hubble constant H_0=68km/s/Mpc, baryonic density Omega_b=0.05. All models were normalised to the COBE data and no closed models (k=+1) were computed. Using the CMB data alone, the best-fit model has lambda_0=0.60 and Omega_0=0.34 and at 99% confidence the lower limit on lambda_0+Omega_0 is 0.8. Including constraints from gravitational lensing statistics doesn't change this significantly, although it does change the allowed region of parameter space. A universe with lambda_0=0 is ruled out for any value of Omega_0 at better than 99% confidence using the CMB alone. Combined with constraints from lensing statistics, lambda_0=0 is also ruled out at better than 99% confidence. As the region of parameter space allowed by the CMB is, within our assumptions, much smaller than that allowed by lensing statistics, the main result of combining the two is to change the range of parameter space allowed by the CMB along its axis of degeneracy.

description: Nanoscaled room-temperature ferroelectricity is ideal for developing advanced non-volatile high-density memories. However, reaching the thin film limit in conventional ferroelectrics is a long-standing challenge due to the possible critical thickness effect. Van der Waals materials, thanks to their stable layered structure, saturate interfacial chemistry and weak interlayer couplings, are promising for exploring ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectrics and device applications. Here, we demonstrate a switchable room-temperature ferroelectric diode built upon a 2D ferroelectric α-In2Se3 layer as thin as 5 nm in the form of graphene/α-In2Se3 heterojunction. The intrinsic out-of-plane ferroelectricity of the α-In2Se3 thin layers is evidenced by the observation of reversible spontaneous electric polarization with a relative low coercive electric field of ~$2 X 10^5 V/cm$ and a typical ferroelectric domain size of around tens $μm^2$. Owing to the out-of-plane ferroelectricity of the α-In2Se3 layer, the Schottky barrier at the graphene/α-In2Se3 interface can be effectively tuned by switching the electric polarization with an applied voltage, leading to a pronounced switchable double diode effect with an on/off ratio of ~$10^4$. Our results offer a new way for developing novel nanoelectronic devices based on 2D ferroelectrics.

description: Early warning systems are an essential tool for effective humanitarian action. Advance warnings on impending disasters facilitate timely and targeted response which help save lives and livelihoods. In this work we present a quantitative methodology to forecast levels of food consumption for 60 consecutive days, at the sub-national level, in four countries: Mali, Nigeria, Syria, and Yemen. The methodology is built on publicly available data from the World Food Programme's global hunger monitoring system which collects, processes, and displays daily updates on key food security metrics, conflict, weather events, and other drivers of food insecurity. In this study we assessed the performance of various models including Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) Network, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), and Reservoir Computing (RC), by comparing their Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) metrics. Our findings highlight Reservoir Computing as a particularly well-suited model in the field of food security given both its notable resistance to over-fitting on limited data samples and its efficient training capabilities. The methodology we introduce establishes the groundwork for a global, data-driven early warning system designed to anticipate and detect food insecurity.

description: Objective: To evaluate a new treatment for dysmenorrhea by mechanically inducing menstrual fluid streaming. Setting: A 4-month randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study. Participants: Study participants included women experiencing dysmenorrhea monthly (for the 6 preceding months) at a level >5 on the visual analog scale (0–10), who were otherwise healthy. The study participants also collected their menstrual fluid for 2 baseline months, while recording their pain levels (primary outcome) systematically. A correlation between menstrual fluid characteristics and menstrual pain was studied as well. Intervention: A newly invented device was used to attenuate dysmenorrheic pain level. Results: From September 2011 to December 2013, 28 study participants were enrolled; three withdrew and three were excluded for protocol non-adherence. Twenty-two study participants (132 menstrual cycles) who used the device reported an average reduction of 55 ± 7.6% in pain levels vs. 22 ± 12% reported with placebo (p = 0.008). In addition, analysis of menstrual fluid collected from 19 study participants (38 menstrual cycles) showed that high pain levels necessarily involve tissue fragments or a viscous menstrual fluid, supporting the idea that dysmenorrhea is associated with the rheological characteristics of the menstrual fluid. Conclusions: The new device is highly effective in relieving menstrual pain. Rheological characteristics of the menses are correlated with severity of dysmenorrhea.

description: Introduction: Thrombosis is a common causal pathology for stroke, acute coronary syndrome and venous thromboembolism disorders, which are the leading cause of death worldwide. Anticoagulants have exhibited a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of thrombotic diseases. Factor Xa (FXa) is a serine protease with a central role in activating the complex blood coagulation cascade, and it is therefore regarded as an attractive target for antithrombotic agents. Areas covered: The authors review the current status of medicinal chemistry strategies for the discovery of novel FXa inhibitors and provide their expert perspectives on their future development. Expert opinion: Even if only a number of small-molecule FXa inhibitors have been reported to date, all currently available FXa inhibitors are associated with significant risk of bleeding, which may become life-threatening. There is, therefore, an urgent and unmet demand for potent novel FXa inhibitors that are potent treatments for thrombotic disorders, but which have a reduced risk of bleeding if their use is to be increasingly favored.
