description: A search for Higgs bosons that decay into a bottom quark-antiquark pair and are accompanied by at least one additional bottom quark is performed with the CMS detector. The data analyzed were recorded in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.7 fb$^{-1}$. The final state considered in this analysis is particularly sensitive to signatures of a Higgs sector beyond the standard model, as predicted in the generic class of two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs). No signal above the standard model background expectation is observed. Stringent upper limits on the cross section times branching fraction are set for Higgs bosons with masses up to 1300 GeV. The results are interpreted within several MSSM and 2HDM scenarios.

description: We study the thermal and chemical evolution during the Kelvin-Helmholtz phase of the birth of a neutron star, employing neutrino opacities that are consistently calculated with the underlying equation of state (EOS). Expressions for the diffusion coefficients appropriate for general relativistic neutrino transport in the equilibrium diffusion approximation are derived. The diffusion coefficients are evaluated using a field-theoretical finite temperature EOS that includes the possible presence of hyperons. The variation of the diffusion coefficients is studied as a function of EOS and compositional parameters. We present results from numerical simulations of protoneutron star cooling for internal stellar properties as well as emitted neutrino energies and luminosities. We discuss the influence of the initial stellar model, the total mass, the underlying EOS, and the addition of hyperons on the evolution of the protoneutron star and upon the expected signal in terrestrial detectors.

High precision track reconstruction and first emittance measurements in the MICE step IV cooling channel
Creators: name: Hunt, Christopher
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: The International Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment (MICE) is currently being commissioned at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and aims to be the first experiment to demonstrate the technique of muon beam ionisation cooling, a key component in Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider designs. In order to do so, high precision muon track and beam phase-space reconstruction is required. A Kalman Filter based track fit has been designed, implemented and tested for the reconstruction of both straight and helical muon tracks, using data from the MICE Scintillating Fibre Trackers. Detailed Monte Carlo simulation studies have been conducted in order to verify the implementation and predict the performance of the fitting algorithms when applied to real data. A combination of simulation studies and statistical data analyses have been used to commission the track reconstruction software and perform simple validation techniques. The straight track reconstruction was applied to an alignment study, designed to measure the relative positions of the two tracking detectors within the MICE cooling channel. A translational resolution of 0.11 mm in both the x and y directions was extracted, in addition a rotational resolution of 0.05 mrad of the relative yaw, Φ x , and pitch, Φ y , between the two trackers was calculated. The helical track reconstruction was successfully used in the analysis of the first helical track data acquired within the MICE Cooling Channel. A momentum window of 195 to 205 MeV/c was applied to the default MICE muon beam, which resulted in 5049 reconstructed tracks with a normalised transverse emittance of 5.08 ± 0.05 Stat ± 0.06 Sys ± 0.02 Field mm. The systematic error was calculated based on the modelled momentum residuals, and a second systematic error, due to the incomplete knowledge of the true field, was estimated through comparisons of different field maps.

description: A general model of magnetically controlled accretion onto T Tauri stars is presented. In this model the magnetic field is oriented arbitrarily in relation to the star's rotation axis. The resultant interplay between the magnetic field and accretion disc causes a variable accretion rate. The dominant timescale of this variability is the beat frequency between the stellar rotation frequency and the orbital frequency at the magnetosphere boundary. This model is analogous to that developed to explain quasi-periodic oscillations in low-mass X-ray binaries.

description: Recently, there has been growing interest on primordial ``blue" ($n>1$) perturbation spectra, motivated both by a composite set of observational data on large scales and from the point of view of theoretical model building. After reviewing the theoretical (inflationary) motivations for these blue spectra, we consider various observational constraints, within both Cold Dark Matter and Mixed Dark Matter scenarios. In particular, using linear theory, we discuss large--scale bulk flows and the X--ray cluster abundance. We also perform various N--body simulations of these models to study the clustering properties of the matter distribution and the peculiar velocity field.

Diffuse 0.5-1 keV X-Rays and Nuclear Gamma-Rays from Fast Particles in the Local Hot Bubble
Creators: name: Tatischeff, V.
name: Ramaty, R.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that interactions of fast particles with the boundary shell of the local hot bubble could make an important contribution to the 0.5-1 keV diffuse X-ray background observed with ROSAT. The bulk of these nonthermal X-rays are due to line emission from fast O ions of energies around 1 MeV/nucleon. This is the typical energy per particle in the ejecta of the supernova which is thought to have energized the bubble. We find that there is sufficient total energy in the ejecta to produce X-rays of the required intensity, subject to the details of the evolution of the fast particle population since the supernova explosion (about 3 10$^5$ years ago based on the age of the Geminga pulsar). The unequivocal signature of lines from deexcitations in fast ions is their large width ($δE/E$~0.1 for O lines), which will clearly distinguishes them from X-ray lines produced in a hot plasma. If a small fraction of the total ejecta energy is converted into accelerated particle kinetic energy (>~30 MeV/nucleon), the gamma-ray line emission produced in the boundary shell of the local hot bubble could account for the recently reported COMPTEL observations of nuclear gamma-ray lines from a broad region towards the Galactic center.

Cortical and subcortical contributions to balance in health and disease
Creators: name: Ahmad, Hena
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: The role of the brainstem and cerebellum in dizziness and balance have been studied extensively however subcortical and cortical contributions to dizziness and balance have largely been neglected. Accordingly, this thesis has studied the mechanisms of vestibular cortical modulation using non-invasive stimulation, structural and functional changes occurring in the cerebral cortex following vestibular disorders and lastly the association of unexplained dizziness with cerebral small vessel disease. In the first study, bihemispheric tDCS was used to non-invasively stimulate critical temporo-parietal areas with simultaneous eye movement recordings to analyse whether it acted indirectly through pursuit and VOR suppression mechanisms or direct modulation of the VOR. This observed modulation was likely due to top-down cortical control of the VOR as a result of disruption to parietal interhemispheric balance and not mediated via brainstem pathways. In the second study, cortical adaptation mechanisms in patients who have bilateral deficit of the VOR (bilateral vestibular failure) were investigated. Initial manifestation of severe oscillopsia diminishes gradually in these patients, however the underlying adaptive mechanisms remain unclear. Hence, primary visual cortex (V1) excitability was directly assessed using single pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation to induce phosphene percepts (an indirect measure of cortical excitability). Patients exhibited raised phosphene thresholds implying reduced V1 excitability and were inversely correlated with oscillopsia scores, suggesting reduced visual cortical excitability is associated with improved functional status. A significant decrease in the probability of phosphene perception was observed in patients when viewing visual motion compared to controls. A subset of patients exhibited markedly reduced V1 excitability, with strong or complete suppression of phosphenes during visual motion; a novel “disappearing phosphene” phenomenon. This study provided the first neurophysiological evidence that cortical adaptation mechanisms play a critical role in recovery from vestibular failure. Dizzy patients referred to two neuro-otology centres were divided into 'explained' and 'unexplained' causes of dizziness based on a retrospective casenote analysis and a blinded review of white matter hyperintensities on T2 and FLAIR sequences in 3T MRI using validated visual Fazekas scale was conducted. Increased severity of white matter hyperintensity in cases of unexplained dizziness suggests that such abnormalities are likely contributory to the development of dizziness. White matter lesions may induce dizziness either because patients perceive a degree of objective unsteadiness or by a disconnection syndrome involving vestibular or locomotor areas of the brain.

Low pressure UV/H2O2 treatment of the pesticides metaldehyde, clopyralid and mecoprop and matrix constituents in drinking water
Creators: name: Semitsoglou-Tsiapou, Sofia
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are increasingly being applied in water treatment to degrade recalcitrant micro-pollutants such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and endocrine-disrupting compounds. This research focused on the combination of low pressure ultraviolet light with hydrogen peroxide (LP-UV/H2O2) and determined, for the first time, (i) the degradation, kinetics and formation of reaction products of three pesticides (mecoprop, clopyralid, metaldehyde) selected because of their current relevance to the water sector and different chemical structures, (ii) the formation of nitrite and nitrated compounds in waters containing natural organic matter (NOM) and nitrate, and (iii) the mutagenicity of LP-UV/H2O2–treated waters, both synthetic and real waters obtained from a UK water treatment works applying LP-UV/H2O2 at full-scale. Based on the findings of this research, it is concluded that effective degradation of the selected recalcitrant pesticides can be achieved using practical UV fluences and H2O2 doses. The degradation and kinetic order was mecoprop > metaldehyde > clopyralid, with the latter being the most affected by the presence of a background matrix (NOM, nitrate, bromide), and their main reaction products were identified, with reaction mechanisms proposed. Nitrite formed from nitrate photolysis was directly proportional to nitrate concentration, H2O2 dose, pH and NOM presence. Three different types of NOM were considered, but the chemical composition of the NOM was not a significant factor in nitrite formation by LP-UV/H2O2 under the conditions tested. The regulatory limit (i.e. 0.1 μg/L NO2- in the EU) was exceeded in the presence of NOM only at the highest fluence tested (2000 mJ/cm2). Nitrophenol formation was observed and attributed to NOM-nitrate interactions. Mutagenic activity below the accepted level of concern was detected by the Ames II test in both synthetic and full-scale LP-UV/H2O2-treated waters. Overall therefore, the findings of this research support the use of LP-UV/H2O2 in water treatment applications.

description: We study the primordial neutron to baryon ratio in a cosmological expanding background within the context of non-extensive statistics, in a fully analytical approach. First order corrections to the weak interaction rates and energy densities in the early universe are obtained and their consequences on the Helium synthesis are analized. We find that, if the nucleosynthesis scenario should be in agreement with observation, this entails a very restrictive bound upon $q$, the non-extensive parameter. We also study some cosmological interesting situations such as the moment of pair annihilation, conserved comoving quantities and derive for the nonextensive statistics, temperature relationships, before and after the removal of pairs.

Discovery of Diffuse X-ray Emission in 47 Tuc

Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We present the results of a search for diffuse x-ray sources in a 65 ksec ROSAT PSPC exposure of 47 Tuc. There is faint, soft emission on the NE side of the cluster at a distance of 6 arcmin from the core. The location of this emission along the direction of proper motion of the cluster suggests that it might be due to a bow shock. We show that a simple shock model fits the observed luminosity and temperature. However, a bow shock can only form if the rotation of the halo gas at the height of 47 Tuc (z = 3.3 kpc) is small compared to the rotation of the galactic plane. Therefore this observation provides not only the first x-ray detection of hot gas in a globular cluster, but also constrains the dynamics of the halo gas. We also find two sources of diffuse x-ray emission to the NE of the cluster which are brighter and harder. We consider a variety of models for this emission, including thermal emission from a high velocity wind from a hot white dwarf, and propose that it is due to inverse Compton emission from acceleration in the bow shock of low energy cosmic ray electrons from the population of millisecond pulsars in the cluster.

description: Abundance histories for QSO absorption line systems as a function of redshift are presented for all metals lighter than gallium. Coupling various conventional cosmological models with a simple, first--order model for the chemical evolution of the QSO absorption line systems allows transformation of the observed abundance trends in the Galaxy to abundance histories for the gas in QSO absorption line systems. Comparison of the transformed abundance patterns with the zinc to hydrogen [Zn/H] and silicon to hydrogen [Si/H] ratios observed in damped Lyman-$α$ systems finds agreement over more than two orders of magnitude in abundance with a $Λ$=0, \ $Ω$=0.2 -- 1.0, \ and $τ_{\rm {delay}}$=3 Gyr cosmology, where $τ_{\rm {delay}}$ is the time between the start of the Big Bang and the beginning of galaxy formation. Alternative meanings for the required time delay are explored, along with extensions to the simple first--order model. Predictions are made for the abundance histories of elements not yet observed in QSO absorption line systems.

description: The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model attracts attention in the context of information scrambling, which represents delocalization of quantum information and is quantified by the out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOC). The SYK model contains $N$ fermions with disordered and four-body interactions. Here, we introduce a variant of the SYK model, which we refer to as the Wishart SYK model. We investigate the Wishart SYK model for complex fermions and that for hard-core bosons. We show that the ground state of the Wishart SYK model is massively degenerate and the residual entropy is extensive, and that the Wishart SYK model for complex fermions is integrable. In addition, we numerically investigate the OTOC and level statistics of the SYK models. At late times, the OTOC of the fermionic Wishart SYK model exhibits large temporal fluctuations, in contrast with smooth scrambling in the original SYK model. We argue that the large temporal fluctuations of the OTOC are a consequence of a small effective dimension of the initial state. We also show that the level statistics of the fermionic Wishart SYK model is in agreement with the Poisson distribution, while the bosonic Wishart SYK model obeys the GUE or the GOE distribution.

Measurements of $b$-jet tagging efficiency with the ATLAS detector using $t\bar{t}$ events at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV

description: The efficiency to identify jets containing $b$-hadrons ($b$-jets) is measured using a high purity sample of dileptonic top quark-antiquark pairs ($t\bar{t}$) selected from the 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the ATLAS detector in 2015 and 2016 from proton-proton collisions produced by the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV. Two methods are used to extract the efficiency from $t\bar{t}$ events, a combinatorial likelihood approach and a tag-and-probe method. A boosted decision tree, not using $b$-tagging information, is used to select events in which two $b$-jets are present, which reduces the dominant uncertainty in the modelling of the flavour of the jets. The efficiency is extracted for jets in a transverse momentum range from 20 to 300 GeV, with data-to-simulation scale factors calculated by comparing the efficiency measured using collision data to that predicted by the simulation. The two methods give compatible results, and achieve a similar level of precision, measuring data-to-simulation scale factors close to unity with uncertainties ranging from 2% to 12% depending on the jet transverse momentum.

description: Anisotropy in the arrival directions of cosmic rays with energies above 10$^{17}$eV is studied using data from the Akeno 20 km$^2$ array and the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA), using a total of about 117,000 showers observed during 11 years. In the first harmonic analysis, we have found strong anisotropy of $\sim$ 4% around 10$^{18}$eV, corresponding to a chance probability of 0.2%. With two dimensional analysis in right ascension and declination, this anisotropy is interpreted as an excess of showers near the directions of the Galactic Center and the Cygnus region.

description: Long-ranged coherent qubit coupling is a missing function block for scaling up spin qubit based quantum computing solutions. Spin-coherent conveyor-mode electron-shuttling could enable spin quantum-chips with scalable and sparse qubit-architecture. Its key feature is the operation by only few easily tuneable input terminals and compatibility with industrial gate-fabrication. Single electron shuttling in conveyor-mode in a 420 nm long quantum bus has been demonstrated previously. Here we investigate the spin coherence during conveyor-mode shuttling by separation and rejoining an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) spin-pair. Compared to previous work we boost the shuttle velocity by a factor of 10000. We observe a rising spin-qubit dephasing time with the longer shuttle distances due to motional narrowing and estimate the spin-shuttle infidelity due to dephasing to be 0.7 % for a total shuttle distance of nominal 560 nm. Shuttling several loops up to an accumulated distance of 3.36 $μ$m, spin-entanglement of the EPR pair is still detectable, giving good perspective for our approach of a shuttle-based scalable quantum computing architecture in silicon.

Probing the Era of Galaxy Formation via TeV Gamma Ray Absorption by the Near Infrared Extragalactic Background

description: We present models of the extragalactic background light (EBL) based on several scenarios of galaxy formation and evolution. We have treated galaxy formation with the Press-Schecter approximation for both cold dark matter (CDM) and cold+hot dark matter (CHDM) models, representing a moderate ($z_f \sim 3$) and a late ($z_f \sim 1$) era of galaxy formation respectively. Galaxy evolution has been treated by considering a variety of stellar types, different initial mass functions and star formation histories, and with an accounting of dust absorption and emission. We find that the dominant factor influencing the EBL is the epoch of galaxy formation. A recently proposed method for observing the EBL utilizing the absorption of $\sim 0.1$ to 10 TeV gamma-rays from active galactic nuclei (AGN) is shown to be capable of discriminating between different galaxy formation epochs. The one AGN viewed in TeV light, Mrk 421, does show some evidence for a cutoff above 3 TeV; based on the EBL models presented here, we suggest that this is due to extinction in the source. The large absorption predicted at energies $>200$ GeV for sources at $z>0.5$ indicates that observations of TeV gamma-ray bursts (GRB) would constrain or eliminate models in which the GRB sources lie at cosmological distances.

description: An important statistical test on the pseudo-random number generators is called the spectral test. The test is aimed at answering the question of distribution of the generated pseudo-random vectors in dimensions $d$ that are larger than the genuine dimension of a generator $N$. In particular, the default MIXMAX generators have various dimensions: $N=8,17,240$ and higher. Therefore the spectral test is important to perform in dimensions $d > 8$ for $N=8$ generator, $d> 17$ for $N=17$ and $d> 240$ for $N=240$ generator. These tests have been performed by L'Ecuyer and collaborators. When $d > N$ the vectors of the generated numbers fall into the parallel hyperplanes and the distances between them can be larger than the genuine "resolution" of the MIXMAX generators, which is $ l=2^{-61}$. The aim of this article is to further study the spectral properties of the MIXMAX generators, to investigate the dependence of the spectral properties of the MIXMAX generators as a function of their internal parameters and in particular their dependence on the parameter $m$. We found that the best spectral properties are realized when $m$ is between $2^{24}$ and $2^{36}$, a range which is inclusive of the value of the $N=17$ generator. We also provide the alternative parameters for the generators, $N=8$ and $N=240$ with $m$ in this optimised range.

description: We numerically investigate the low-lying entanglement spectrum of the ground state of random one-dimensional spin chains obtained after partition of the chain into two equal halves. We consider two paradigmatic models: the spin-1/2 random transverse field Ising model, solved exactly, and the spin-1 random Heisenberg model, simulated using the density matrix renormalization group. In both cases we analyze the mean Schmidt gap, defined as the difference between the two largest eigenvalues of the reduced density matrix of one of the two partitions, averaged over many disorder realizations. We find that the Schmidt gap detects the critical point very well and scales with universal critical exponents.

The Expulsion of Stellar Envelopes in Core-Collapse Supernovae

description: We examine the relation between presupernova stellar structure and the distribution of ejecta in core-collapse supernovae, assuming adiabatic, spherically symmetric flow. We develop a simple yet accurate formula for the blastwave shock velocity, and demonstrate that the entire final density distribution can be approximated with simple models for the final pressure distribution, along with the approximate shock-deposited entropy, in a way that matches the results of simulations. We find that the distribution of density in a star's ejecta depends on whether its outer envelope is radiative or convective, and if convective, on the composition structure of the star; simple approximate forms are presented for red and blue supergiant ejecta. Our models are most accurate for the high-velocity ejecta from the periphery of a star, where the shock dynamics are predictable. We present formulae for the final density distribution of this material, for both radiative and efficiently convective envelopes. These formulae limit to the well-known planar, self-similar solutions for mass shells approaching the stellar surface. But, the assumption of adiabatic flow fails at low optical depth, so this planar limit need not be attained. Formulae are given for the observable properties of the X-ray burst accompanying shock emergence, and their dependence on the parameters of the explosion. Motivated by the relativistic expansion recently inferred by Kulkarni et al. (1998) for the synchrotron shell around SN1998bw, we estimate the criterion for relativistic mass ejection and the rest mass of relativistic ejecta.

Reconfigurable computing for genetic algorithms
Creators: name: Guo, Liucheng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a class of numerical and combinatorial optimisers which are especially useful for solving non-linear and non-convex problems. However, the required execution time often limits their application to small-scale or latency-insensitive problems, so techniques to increase the speed and computational efficiency of GAs are needed. FPGA-based acceleration has significant potential for speeding up genetic algorithms, but existing FPGA-based GA systems are limited by the need for extensive hardware architecture customisation by end users and the relatively small improvement in performance. The main reasons for these limitations are that most of the units in these GA systems are fixed and the algorithms of these FPGA-based systems are just inherited from software GAs without making full use of reconfigurable hardware. This thesis examines the previous work and then rethinks the creation of genetic algorithms with reconfigurable computing, and aims to address the problems of low-level programmability, flexibility, and performance in current GA systems. The thesis first presents a general-purpose automated framework for creating and executing a flexible parallel GA system on one FPGA or even multiple FPGAs, which increases the flexibility in GA architecture and removes the low-level hardware programmability barrier for non-expert users. The thesis then proposes a novel hardware-oriented approach called Pipelined Genetic Propagation (PGP), which is intrinsically spatially distributed and fully pipelined. PGP represents a GA solver as a graph of loosely coupled genetic operators, which allows the system to be scaled to the available resources, and also to dynamically change connection topology at run-time to explore different strategies. Finally the thesis extends PGP in three ways: Recursive PGP for multiple level optimisation problems, machine learning guided PGP for automatically changing the connection topology, and partially reconfigurable PGP to increase flexibility. Overall, the thesis presents new ways to perform genetic algorithms in reconfigurable computing, with high-level programmability, sufficient flexibility and high performance.
Bulge-Disk Decomposition of 659 Spiral and Lenticular Galaxy Brightness Profiles

description: We present one of the largest homogeneous sets of spiral and lenticular galaxy brightness profile decompositions completed to date. The 659 galaxies in our sample have been fitted with a deVaucouleurs' law for the bulge component and an inner-truncated exponential for the disk component. Of the 659 galaxies in the sample, 620 were successfully fit with the chosen fitting functions. The fits are generally well-defined, with more than 90% having RMS deviations from the observed profile of less than 0.35 magnitudes. We find no correlations of fitting quality, as measured by these RMS residuals, with either morphological type or inclination. Similarly, the estimated errors of the fitted coefficients show no significant trends with type or inclination. These decompositions form a useful basis for the study of the light distributions of spiral and lenticular galaxies. The object base is sufficiently large that well-defined samples of galaxies can be selected from it.
