description: We study the merger of black hole-neutron star binaries by fully general-relativistic neutrino-radiation-hydrodynamics simulations throughout the coalescence, particularly focusing on the role of neutrino irradiation in dynamical mass ejection. Neutrino transport is incorporated by an approximate transfer scheme based on the truncated moment formalism. While we fix the mass ratio of the black hole to the neutron star to be 4 and the dimensionless spin parameter of the black hole to be 0.75, the equations of state for finite-temperature neutron-star matter are varied. The hot accretion disk formed after tidal disruption of the neutron star emits a copious amount of neutrinos with the peak total luminosity ~1--3x10^53 erg s^(-1) via thermal pair production and subsequent electron/positron captures on free nucleons. Nevertheless, the neutrino irradiation does not modify significantly the electron fraction of the dynamical ejecta from the neutrinoless beta-equilibrium value at zero temperature of initial neutron stars. The mass of the wind component driven by neutrinos from the remnant disk is negligible compared to the very neutron-rich dynamical component, throughout our simulations performed until a few tens milliseconds after the onset of merger, for the models considered in this study. These facts suggest that the ejecta from black hole-neutron star binaries are very neutron rich and are expected to accommodate strong r-process nucleosynthesis, unless magnetic or viscous processes contribute substantially to the mass ejection from the disk. We also find that the peak neutrino luminosity does not necessarily increase as the disk mass increases, because tidal disruption of a compact neutron star can result in a remnant disk with a small mass but high temperature.

description: The Belle II experiment features a substantial upgrade of the Belle detector and will operate at the SuperKEKB energy-asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider at KEK in Tuskuba, Japan. The accelerator successfully completed the first phase of commissioning in 2016 and the Belle II detector saw its first electron-positron collisions in April 2018. Belle II features a newly designed silicon vertex detector based on double-sided strip and DEPFET pixel detectors. A subset of the vertex detector was operated in 2018 to determine background conditions (Phase 2 operation); installation of the full detector was completed early in 2019 and the experiment starts full data taking. This talk will report on the final arrangement of the silicon vertex detector part of Belle II with focus on on-line and off-line monitoring of detector conditions and data quality, design and use of diagnostic and reference plots, and integration with the software framework of Belle II. Data quality monitoring plots will be discussed with a focus on simulation and acquired cosmic and collision data.

description: Live, broadcast defamation is a murky area of law garnering surprisingly scant scholarly attention. But because libel law typically creates republication liability for broadcasters who air defamatory statements uttered by third parties—even when news organizations have no idea what the third parties are about to say— broadcasters covering live, breaking news events face significant risks of liability for remarks by people at the scene. This Article analyzes the case law of live and spontaneous broadcast defamation, explores the statutory backdrop in such cases and, ultimately, proposes a solution in the form of a “breaking news doctrine” that relieves broadcasters of republication liability if five prerequisites are satisfied.

description: Penitentes are ablative features observed in snow and ice that, on Earth, are characterized by regular cm to tens of cm spaced bowl-shaped depressions whose edges grade into tall spires up to several meters tall (Nichols et al. 1939, Lliboutry et al. 1954, Claudin et al. 2015). While penitentes have been suggested as an explanation for anomalous radar data on Europa (Hobley et al. 2013), hitherto no penitentes have been identified conclusively on other planetary bodies. Regular ridges with spacing of 3000 m to 5000 m and a depth of $\sim500$ m with morphologies that resemble penitentes (Fig. 1) have been observed by the New Horizons spacecraft (Moore et al. 2016, Stern et al. 2015, Gladstone et al. 2016, Moore et al. 2017) in the Tartarus Dorsa (TD) region of Pluto (approximately 220-250$^\circ$ E, 0-20$^\circ$ N). Here we report simulations, based upon a recent model (Claudinet al. 2015) adapted to conditions on Pluto (Gladstone et al. 2016, Toigo et al. 2015), that reproduce both the tri-modal orientation and the spacing of these features by deepening penitentes. These penitentes deepen by of order 1 cm per orbital cycle in the present era and grow only during periods of relatively high atmospheric pressure, suggesting a formation timescale of several tens of millions of years, consistent with cratering ages and the current atmospheric loss rate of methane. This time scale, in turn, implies that the penitentes formed from initial topographic variations of no more than a few 10s of meters, consistent with Pluto's youngest terrains.

description: The Virtual Monte Carlo (VMC) package together with its concrete implementations provides a unified interface to different detector simulation transport engines such as GEANT3 or GEANT4. However, so far the simulation of one event was restricted to the usage of one chosen engine. We introduce here the possibility to mix multiple engines within the simulation of one event. Depending on user conditions the simulation is then effectively split among the chosen engines. Among others, these conditions can depend on phase space, geometry, particle type or an arbitrary combination. This development hence offers the possibility to choose multiple engines for an event simulation profiting from each of their advantages or specific capabilities under different conditions. Furthermore, it allows for the implementation of fast simulation kernels on VMC level which can then easily be dispatched to during simulation. This also makes stand-alone fast simulation possible since such a fast simulation kernel in essence acts as a fully functional engine. This development opens many new opportunities for the usage of the VMC package and its functionality. It allows for extended studies of detector simulation engines, their interplay and, especially concerning customized user implementations of fast simulations, it provides vital new flexibility.
Evidence? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Evidence!: How Ambiguity in Some States’ Anti-SLAPP Laws Threatens to DeFang a Popular and Powerful Weapon Against Frivolous Litigation

description: For nearly thirty years, states have been adopting laws that attempt to stop rich, sophisticated parties from using costly litigation as a weapon to punish and silence their less-affluent critics. Known as “anti-SLAPP” statutes, these measures have been incredibly effective in forcing certain plaintiffs to bring forth evidence at an early stage of litigation to show their claims have merit. Unfortunately, a troubling trend has emerged. Some states’ courts are interpreting particular language within their anti-SLAPP laws to allow plaintiffs to survive early dismissal by merely pointing to unproven and unsworn-to allegations in their pleadings. This movement is on the rise as Congress recently considered a federal anti-SLAPP bill that just so happens to feature this same ambiguous language. This Article explores how state courts are arriving at entirely opposite holdings despite sharing statutory language that is identical in form and purpose. Ultimately, I offer specific suggestions about how Congress and state legislatures can fix their laws to avoid uncertainty and fully effectuate the purpose of anti-SLAPP legislation.

The Effect of the Spatial Resolution of Conflict Data on the Analysis of Drought As a Local Determinant of Civil War Onset: Africa, 1980 - 2001

description: With the steady decrease in freshwater availability and the growth of world population, freshwater distribution is likely to become an increasingly prominent source of conflict. Given that civil wars by definition occur within national boundaries and therefore involve factors that vary within the country in which they occur, past studies examining the determinants of civil conflict using the state as the unit of observation are inherently flawed. Improvements in the accuracy of the delineations of such conflict should increase the ability to determine the local determinants of civil war. This analysis focuses on Africa between 1980 and 2001, utilizing a refined version of the International Peace Research Institute, Oslo (PRIO) Armed Conflict dataset at the 0.25-degree resolution, and juxtaposing this data on rainfall data using GIS analysis. Using socioeconomic factors as control variables, we perform a logistic regression analysis, comparing the correlation coefficients from this analysis to those of a previous study using conflict centroids with radii as the units of observation. Thus, this study aims to explore the effect a change in the spatial level of resolution of conflict data has on our ability to analyze geographic determinants of war outbreak. We find that, despite the altered delineation of conflict data, the statistical analysis produces similar results that confirm the causal relationship between drought and civil war outbreak. This calls to attention the need for further international cooperation in assisting developing nations to develop infrastructure for the sustainable management of water resources.

description: We theoretically investigate magnetic properties of a trapped ultracold Fermi gas. Including pairing fluctuations within the framework of an extended $T$-matrix approximation (ETMA), as well as effects of a harmonic trap in the local density approximation (LDA), we calculate the local spin susceptibility $χ_{\rm t}(r,T)$ in the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer)-BEC (Bose-Einstein condensation) crossover region. We show that pairing fluctuations cause non-monotonic temperature dependence of $χ_{\rm t}(r,T)$. Although this behavior looks similar to the spin-gap phenomenon associated with pairing fluctuations in a {\it uniform} Fermi gas, the trapped case is found to also be influenced by the temperature-dependent density profile, in addition to pairing fluctuations. We demonstrate how to remove this extrinsic effect from $χ_{\rm t}(r,T)$, to study the interesting spin-gap phenomenon purely originating from pairing fluctuations. Since experiments in cold atom physics are always done in a trap, our results would be useful for the assessment of preformed pair scenario, from the viewpoint of spin-gap phenomenon.

description: We have cross-matched the LAMOST DR3 with the Gaia DR1 TGAS catalogs and obtained a sample of 166,827 stars with reliable kinematics. A technique based on the wavelet transform was applied to detect significant overdensities in velocity space among five subsamples divided by spatial position. In total, 16 significant overdensities of stars with very similar kinematics were identified. Among these, four are new stream candidates and the rest are previously known groups. Both the U-V velocity and metallicity distributions of the local sample show a clear gap between the Hercules structure and the Hyades-Pleiades structure. The U-V positions of these peaks shift with the spatial position. Following a description of our analysis, we speculate on possible origins of our stream candidates.

description: Ubiquitous nonlinear waves in dispersive media include localized solitons and extended hydrodynamic states such as dispersive shock waves. Despite their physical prominence and the development of thorough theoretical and experimental investigations of each separately, experiments and a unified theory of solitons and dispersive hydrodynamics are lacking. Here, a general soliton-mean field theory is introduced and used to describe the propagation of solitons in macroscopic hydrodynamic flows. Two universal adiabatic invariants of motion are identified that predict trapping or transmission of solitons by hydrodynamic states. The result of solitons incident upon smooth expansion waves or compressive, rapidly oscillating dispersive shock waves is the same, an effect termed hydrodynamic reciprocity. Experiments on viscous fluid conduits quantitatively confirm the soliton-mean field theory with broader implications for nonlinear optics, superfluids, geophysical fluids, and other dispersive hydrodynamic media.

description: Wildfire impacts on vegetation, soils, and resulting hydrologic processes often result in debris-flow activity in mountainous areas, particularly in response to intense rainfall events that follow. Rainfall thresholds for debris-flow initiation in burned areas have been studied in a variety of settings. It has been proposed that short duration, high-intensity rainfall events are responsible for debris-flow initiation in burned areas. The timing of these responses relative to rainfall intensity peaks is not well understood, leaving uncertainty regarding the duration of intense rainfall necessary to trigger debris flows, which is pertinent to debris-flow initiation thresholds and processes, as well as potential risk mitigations. This study evaluates timing of debris-flow initiation relative to various periods of rainfall intensity at a burned area in Colorado. Detailed local monitoring data from the first intense rainfall events following the 2010 Medano Fire are presented and provide insight into temporal correlations between rainfall intensity peaks and debris-flow initiation. Findings indicate that flow arrivals were within approximately 10 minutes after the beginning of periods of peak short duration rainfall intensity and as soon as 6 minutes after the first rainfall of a storm event was recorded, suggesting that short periods of intense rainfall were responsible for initiation. Tests for equality of variances and means indicated that rainfall intensity values of up to 1-hour duration differentiated between storms that triggered debris flows and those that did not, while average storm intensity did not distinguish between them. The return intervals of storms that triggered debris flows in the Medano Fire burned area burned areas evaluated was as low as 2 years; however, short-period rainfall intensity within the triggering storms were similar in magnitude and correlated temporally with debris flows.

description: Swift discovered XRF 050416A with the BAT and began observing it with its narrow field instruments only 64.5 s after the burst onset. Its very soft spectrum classifies this event as an X-ray flash. The afterglow X-ray emission was monitored up to 74 days after the burst. The X-ray light curve initially decays very fast, subsequently flattens and eventually steepens again, similar to many X-ray afterglows. The first and second phases end about 172 and 1450 s after the burst onset, respectively. We find evidence of spectral evolution from a softer emission with photon index Gamma ~ 3.0 during the initial steep decay, to a harder emission with Gamma ~ 2.0 during the following evolutionary phases. The spectra show intrinsic absorption in the host galaxy. The consistency of the initial photon index with the high energy BAT photon index suggests that the initial phase of the X-ray light curve may be the low-energy tail of the prompt emission. The lack of jet break signatures in the X-ray afterglow light curve is not consistent with empirical relations between the source rest-frame peak energy and the collimation-corrected energy of the burst. The standard uniform jet model can give a possible description of the XRF 050416A X-ray afterglow for an opening angle larger than a few tens of degrees, although numerical simulations show that the late time decay is slightly flatter than expected from on-axis viewing of a uniform jet. A structured Gaussian-type jet model with uniform Lorentz factor distribution and viewing angle outside the Gaussian core is another possibility, although a full agreement with data is not achieved with the numerical models explored.

Chiral Higher Spin Theories and Self-Duality

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study recently proposed chiral higher spin theories - cubic theories of interacting massless higher spin fields in four-dimensional flat space. We show that they are naturally associated with gauge algebras, which manifest themselves in several related ways. Firstly, the chiral higher spin equations of motion can be reformulated as the self-dual Yang-Mills equations with the associated gauge algebras instead of the usual colour gauge algebra. We also demonstrate that the chiral higher spin field equations, similarly to the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, feature an infinite algebra of hidden symmetries, which ensures their integrability. Secondly, we show that off-shell amplitudes in chiral higher spin theories satisfy the generalised BCJ relations with the usual colour structure constants replaced by the structure constants of higher spin gauge algebras. We also propose generalised double copy procedures featuring higher spin theory amplitudes. Finally, using the light-cone deformation procedure we prove that the structure of the Lagrangian that leads to all these properties is universal and follows from Lorentz invariance.

Recently it has been upgraded for the upcoming Run3 of LHC to a new web application which will replace the current version successfully used during Run1 and Run2. It consists of a Javascript web application frontend which connects to an PostgreSQL database in the backend. The data quality information is recorded for each Lumi Section, which corresponds approximately to 23 seconds of data taking at CMS. The new platform incorporates user feedback on shortcoming and support for new use cases like Machine Learning and interfaces. In this presentation we describe the architecture and the the commissioning of the service over the past months and the rest of long shutdown 2.
Mode-Coupling Theory for Active Brownian Particles

Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)

description: We present a mode-coupling theory (MCT) for the high-density dynamics of two-dimensional spherical active Brownian particles (ABP). The theory is based on the integration-through-transients (ITT) formalism and hence provides a starting point for the calculation of non-equilibrium averages in active-Brownian particle systems. The ABP are characterized by a self-propulsion velocity $v_0$, and by their translational and rotational diffusion coefficients, $D_t$ and $D_r$. The theory treats both the translational and the orientational degrees of freedom of ABP explicitly. This allows to study the effect of self-propulsion of both weak and strong persistence of the swimming direction, also at high densities where the persistence length $\ell_p=v_0/D_r$ is large compared to the typical interaction length scale. While the low-density dynamics of ABP is characterized by a single Péclet number, $Pe=v_0^2/D_rD_t$, close to the glass transition the dynamics is found to depend on $Pe$ and $\ell_p$ separately. At fixed density, increasing the self-propulsion velocity causes structural relaxatino to speed up, while decreasing the persistence length slows down the relaxation. The theory predicts a non-trivial idealized-glass-transition diagram in the three-dimensional parameter space of density, self-propulsion velocity and rotational diffusivity. The active-MCT glass is a nonergodic state where correlations of initial density fluctuations never fully decay, but also an infinite memory of initial orientational fluctuations is retained in the positions.
Multiphoton Ionization as Time-Dependent Tunneling

description: A new semiclassical approach to ionization by an oscillating field is presented. For a delta-function atom, an asymptotic analysis is performed with respect to a quantity h, defined as the ratio of photon energy to ponderomotive energy. This h appears formally equivalent to Planck's constant in a suitably transformed Schroedinger equation and allows semiclassical methods to be applicable. Systematically, a picture of tunneling wave packets in complex time is developped, which by interference account for the typical ponderomotive features of ionization curves. These analytical results are then compared to numerical simulations and are shown to be in good agreement.

The result holds up to the critical point.

description: Punta Cana, one of the largest tourist destinations in the Caribbean, is located in the western part of the Dominican Republic on the island of Hispaniola. Increased human activity has had a negative impact on the aquatic ecosystems, significantly decreasing the number of coral reefs, mangroves and sea grasses. The decline is not only occurring in the Caribbean, but also worldwide and is attributed to human and natural causes. It is believed that the degradation of aquatic ecosystems is partially driven by increased sedimentation. Sedimentation levels directly impact the wellbeing of aquatic ecosystems. Suspended particles reduce the amount of light that penetrates the water, which reduces photosynthesis and the production of dissolved oxygen. The suspended material can clog fish gills reducing their resistance to disease, lowering growth rates and affecting egg and larval production. Increased sedimentation means a thicker layer of particles accumulates on the floor of the aquatic biome and smothers eggs and benthic macroinvertebrates. The Indigenous Eyes Ecological Reserve, situated on 1500 acres of protected land on the resort, has twelve freshwater lagoons. Since only three of them are open to swimming, it was an ideal natural setting to conduct an experiment to compare the effect of human activity on the levels of sedimentation in two lagoons – one open and one closed to swimming. We also measured the effect of sedimentation levels on the size of the Tarebia granifera in each of the lagoons. The data was analyzed using One-Way ANOVA.

description: For a sample of 25 dwarf irregular galaxies with distances D < 5 Mpc and measured oxygen abundances, we present results derived from stellar masses and galaxy luminosities from near-infrared imaging with IRAC on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We have constructed the appropriate luminosity-metallicity (L-Z) and mass-metallicity (M-Z) relations, and compared these relations with their corresponding relations from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We obtain the following results. 1. The dispersion in the near-infrared L-Z relation is reduced with respect to the dispersion in the optical L-Z relation, which agrees with expectations for reduced variations of stellar mass-to-light ratios at longer wavelengths compared to optical wavelengths. 2. The dispersion in the optical L-Z relation is similar over approximately 11 mag in optical luminosity. 3. With our constructed M-Z relation, we have extended the SDSS M-Z relation to lower masses by about 2.5 dex in stellar mass. 4. The dispersion in the M-Z relation appears to be comparable over a range of 5.5 dex in stellar mass.

Subleading power corrections to the pion-photon transition form factor in QCD

description: We reconsider QCD factorization for the leading power contribution to the $γ^{\ast} γ\to π^0$ form factor $F_{γ^{\ast} γ\to π^0} (Q^2)$ at one loop using the evanescent operator approach, and demonstrate the equivalence of the resulting factorization formulae derived with distinct prescriptions of $γ_5$ in dimensional regularization. Applying the light-cone QCD sum rules (LCSRs) with photon distribution amplitudes (DAs) we further compute the subleading power contribution to the pion-photon form factor induced by the "hadronic" component of the real photon at the next-to-leading-order in ${\cal O}(α_s)$, with both naive dimensional regularization and 't Hooft-Veltman schemes of $γ_5$. Confronting our theoretical predictions of $F_{γ^{\ast} γ\to π^0} (Q^2)$ with the experimental measurements from the BaBar and the Belle Collaborations implies that a reasonable agreement can be achieved without introducing an "exotic" end-point behaviour for the twist-2 pion DA.

description: The Dynafed data federator is designed to present a dynamic and unified view of a distributed file repository. We describe our use of Dynafed to construct a production-ready WLCG storage element (SE) using existing Grid storage endpoints as well as object storage. In particular, Dynafed is used as the primary SE for the Canadian distributed computing cloud systems. Specifically, we have been using a Dynafed-based SE in production for reading input files of Belle-II jobs. We have run up to 6000 Belle-II jobs simultaneously on distributed cloud resources, requiring the transfer of approximately 60 TB of input data per day. Similarly, we have been using a Dynafed-based SE in pre-production testing for the ATLAS experiment. We will describe the configuration of Dynafed to make it suitable as a WLCG SE. In particular, we will highlight the improvements within Dynafed that make it possible to do checksum based file verification and 3rd-party file copy via WebDAV. We will also report on a new monitoring system and an automated system that collects storage information from all endpoints. The monitoring is accessible via a web browser and also on the command line. It includes, for example, information of who requested files, which endpoints served the files, how often each file was requested from an endpoint, as well as endpoint storage information collected by the system we developed. The storage information system collects information about each storage endpoint which is then used by Dynafed to identify endpoints with sufficient storage capacity. The presentation will discuss the configuration and successful operation of Dynafed within the context of a distributed compute cloud infrastructure.

description: Let $q>r\ge1$ be coprime integers. Let $R(n,q,r)$ be the $n$th record gap between primes in the arithmetic progression $r$, $r+q$, $r+2q,\ldots,$ and denote by $N_{q,r}(x)$ the number of such records observed below $x$. For $x\to\infty$, we heuristically argue that if the limit of $N_{q,r}(x)/\log x$ exists, then the limit is 2. We also conjecture that $R(n,q,r)=O_q(n^2)$. Numerical evidence supports the conjectural (a.s.) upper bound $$R(n,q,r)

description: We present a complete set of Fortran 90 modules that can be used to write very compact, efficient, and high level QCD programs. The modules define fields (gauge, fermi, generators, complex, and real fields) as abstract data types, together with simpler objects such as SU(3) matrices or color vectors. Overloaded operators are then defined to perform all possible operations between the fields that may be required in a QCD simulation. QCD programs written using these modules need not have cumbersome subroutines and can be very simple and transparent. This is illustrated with two simple example programs.

A Note on (Non)-Locality in Holographic Higher Spin Theories

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

description: It was argued recently that the holographic higher spin theory features non-local interactions. We further elaborate on these results using the Mellin representation. The main difficulty previously encountered on this way is that the Mellin amplitude for the free theory correlator is ill-defined. To resolve this problem, instead of literally applying the standard definition, we propose to define this amplitude by linearity using decompositions, where each term has the associated Mellin amplitude well-defined. Up to a sign, the resulting amplitude is equal to the Mellin amplitude for the singular part of the quartic vertex in the bulk theory and, hence, can be used to analyze bulk locality. From this analysis we find that the scalar quartic self-interaction vertex in the holographic higher spin theory has a singularity of a special form, which can be distinguished from generic bulk exchanges. We briefly discuss the physical interpretation of such singularities and their relation to the Noether procedure.

description: We present a condition for towers of fiber bundles which implies that the fundamental group of the total space has a nilpotent subgroup of finite index whose torsion is contained in its center. Moreover, the index of the subgroup can be bounded in terms of the fibers of the tower. Our result is motivated by the conjecture that every almost nonnegatively curved closed m-dimensional manifold M admits a finite cover M' for which the number of leafs is bounded in terms of m such that the torsion of the fundamental group of M' lies in its center.

Exponential and Laguerre Squeezed States for su(1,1) Algebra and Calogero-Sutherland Model

description: A class of squeezed states for the su(1,1) algebra is found and expressed by the exponential and Laguerre-polynomial operators acting on the vacuum states. As a special case it is proved that the Perelomov's coherent state is a ladder-operator squeezed state and therefore a minimum uncertainty state. The theory is applied to the two-particle Calogero-Sutherland model. We find some new squeezed states and compared them with the classical trajectories. The connection with some su(1,1) quantum optical systems (amplitude-squared realization, Holstein-Primakoff realization, the two mode realization and a four mode realization) is also discussed.
