Search for direct pair production of the top squark in all-hadronic final states in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

description: The results of a search for direct pair production of the scalar partner to the top quark using an integrated luminosity of $20.1 \rm{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are reported. The top squark is assumed to decay via $\tilde{t} \rightarrow t \tildeχ_{1}^{0}$ or $\tilde{t}\rightarrow b\tildeχ_{1}^{\pm} \rightarrow b W^{\left(\ast\right)} \tildeχ_{1}^{0}$, where $\tildeχ_{1}^{0}$ ($\tildeχ_{1}^{\pm}$) denotes the lightest neutralino (chargino) in supersymmetric models. The search targets a fully-hadronic final state in events with four or more jets and large missing transverse momentum. No significant excess over the Standard Model background prediction is observed, and exclusion limits are reported in terms of the top squark and neutralino masses and as a function of the branching fraction of $\tilde{t} \rightarrow t \tildeχ_{1}^{0}$. For a branching fraction of 100%, top squark masses in the range 270-645 GeV are excluded for $\tildeχ_{1}^{0}$ masses below 30 GeV. For a branching fraction of 50% to either $\tilde{t} \rightarrow t \tildeχ_{1}^{0}$ or $\tilde{t}\rightarrow b\tildeχ_{1}^{\pm}$, and assuming the $\tildeχ_{1}^{\pm}$ mass to be twice the $\tildeχ_{1}^{0}$ mass, top squark masses in the range 250-550 GeV are excluded for $\tildeχ_{1}^{0}$ masses below 60 GeV.

description: We develope a new methodology for the characterization and evaluation of precritical crack propagation. Our experiments were performed with Al-alloy specimens that had special thin Al single crystal films, the so-called a smart sensor glued to their surfaces. These sensors were used as tools for evaluation of damage developed in the specimen bulk. The specimens were plastified by tensile tests and fatigued by low cycles fatigue load. The on-line measurement for damage characterisation were done for the different stage of fatigue tests on the thin-film sensor. Two techniques were applied for experiments, namely the optical microscopy and pulsed eddy current method. We introducted the fractal dimension Df of the surface topography as a parameter for evaluation of the fatigue damage. The optical images were evaluated by the use of Gaussian smoothing algorithm and the eddy current signals by use of the autocorrelation function. The two approaches confirmed that the mesostructural changes of the Al-film surface are characteristic for the fatigued material and can be described and evaluated by the fractal dimension quantitatity Df. It was found that the values of the Df parameter calculated from the optical images increased as the fatigue damage evolved with the indications of the transition to characteristic pattern. A similar analysis of the pulsed eddy current measurements in tension tests results in similar characteristics. However, in the case of fatigue tests the fractal analysis of the pulsed eddy current signals yields to ambiguous results.

description: We theoretically investigate tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) devices, which are probing the spin-momentum coupled nature of surface states of the three-dimensional topological insulator Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$. Theoretical calculations are performed based on a realistic tight-binding model for Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$. We study both three dimensional devices, which exploit the surface states of Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$, as well as two-dimensional devices, which exploit the edge states of thin Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ strips. We demonstrate that the material properties of Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ allow a TMR ratio at room temperature of the order of 1000%. Analytical formulas are derived that allow a quick estimate of the achievable TMR ratio in these devices. The devices can be used to measure the spin polarization of the topological surface states as an alternative to spin-ARPES. Unlike TMR devices based on magnetic tunnel junctions the present devices avoid the use of a second ferromagnetic electrode whose magnetization needs to be pinned.

description: En la etapa de Educación Primaria el alumnado debe aprender a definir, identificar y manejar correctamente una serie de contenidos gramaticales. Esta primera toma de contacto suele llevarse a cabo a través de los libros de texto. Por ello, es conveniente conocer cuáles son las estrategias de enseñanza-aprendizaje y metodología didáctica predominante que deriva de la utilización de los mismos para el abordaje de la gramática en el aula. Como señala Børre Johnsen (1996), es muy importante tener en cuenta y muy presente que, en el proceso de elaboración y consumo de los libros de texto, hay varias partes interesadas (autores, editores, autoridades…) y tienen como objetivo servir a diferentes grupos de personas (profesorado, estudiantes, familias…), no compartiendo las mismas motivaciones cada uno de ellos. A la hora de pronunciarse sobre la investigación en este campo, hay tres nombres que destacan al realizar una revisión bibliográfica, pues llevaron a cabo estudios pioneros y exhaustivos de gran importancia; son Choppin (1998, 2000 y 2001), Børre Johnsen (1996) y Escolano Benito (1996, 2001 y 2006). Tal y como señalan las anteriores investigaciones, tradicionalmente se han utilizado indistintamente diferentes términos para referirse a este recurso: libro, libro de texto, libro didáctico, libro elemental, libro escolar, libro guía, manual, manual escolar, texto escolar… La presente investigación realiza una revisión teórica sobre diversos aspectos relacionados con el libro de texto, destacando cinco núcleos temáticos: su utilización y presencia en la escuela (con la consiguiente desprofesionalización docente producida por un uso excesivo del mismo), el debate existente sobre la conveniencia de su utilización en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje (analizando las dos posturas resultantes: los que niegan su utilidad -libro de texto como obstáculo- y los que se muestran partidarios y defensores del mismo -libro de texto como ventaja-), la organización y distribución típica de los contenidos gramaticales (la cual, en general, presenta una estructura compartimentada de la lengua, así como un enfoque monolingüe), la terminología empleada (caracterizada por una gran dispersión y variedad conceptual, algo que produce serios problemas entre el profesorado y el alumnado) y, por último, el papel del sector docente (pues, en la práctica, es el principal destinatario del libro de texto, por lo que el proceso seguido para su elección es fundamental, así como sus prácticas en el aula y la formación previa recibida).

description: This paper applies a methodological framework for incorporating current period weather and long-term climate conditions into impact assessments. More specifically, the framework applies to non-experimental impact assessments that rely on ex post data collected from both households that were beneficiaries of the project (treated households) and those that did not benefit (control households). Here, the authors apply the methodological framework to an IFAD project that aimed to increase high quality coffee and the performance of coffee cooperatives in Rwanda as a case study. Results show that there is some evidence of biased treatment impacts when climatic variables are not included, but more importantly, show that coffee producers are highly vulnerable to weather shocks. To generate more climate-change relevant evidence more rapidly, there is ample opportunity to more fully exploit impact assessment datasets than is commonly done.
Holographic Thermalization in Quark Confining Background

description: We study holographic thermalization of a strongly coupled theory inspired by two colliding shock waves in a vacuum confining background. Holographic thermalization means a black hole formation, in fact a trapped surface formation. As a vacuum confining background we considered a well know bottom-up AdS/QCD model that provides the Cornell potential as well as reproduces QCD beta-function. We perturb vacuum background by colliding domain shock waves, that are assumed to be holographically dual to heavy ions collisions. Our main physical assumption is that we can make a restriction on the time of a trapped surface production that makes a natural limitation on the size of the domain where the trapped surface is produced. This limits the intermediate domain where the main part of the entropy is produced. In this domain one can use an intermediate vacuum background as an approximation to the full confining background. In this intermediate background a dependence of the produced entropy on colliding energy is very similar to the experimental dependence of particles multiplicities on colliding ions energy obtained from RHIC and LHC. This permits us to conclude that the entropy produced in collisions of domain shock waves during a short time models rather well the experimental data.

description: Recent experiments have shown that floating ferromagnetic beads, under the influence of an oscillating background magnetic field, can move along a liquid-air interface in a sustained periodic locomotion [Lumay et al., Soft Matter, 2013, 9, 2420]. Dynamic activity arises from a periodically induced dipole-dipole repulsion between the beads acting in concert with capillary attraction. We investigate analytically and numerically the stability and dynamics of this magnetocapillary swimming, and explore other related topics including the steady and periodic equilibrium configurations of two and three beads, and bead collisions. The swimming speed and system stability depend on a dimensionless measure of the relative repulsive and attractive forces which we term the magnetocapillary number. An oscillatory magnetic field may stabilize an otherwise unstable collinear configuration, and striking behaviors are observed in fast transitions to and from locomotory states, offering insight into the behavior and self-assembly of interface-bound micro-particles.

description: Using ab initio method we have studied the structural, elastic, electronic, optical and thermodynamic properties of AlB2 and TaB2. We have used plane wave pseudopotential with generalised gradient approximation as implemented in CASTEP program. The independent elastic constants, bulk modulus, Young's modulus, shear modulus, anisotropic factor, Pugh ratio, etc are calculated. This results show that AlB2 and TaB2 are mechanically stable. We have also calculated the band structure and density of states. Band structure results show that AlB2 and TaB2 show metallic behaviour. In order to understand the electronic properties in a better way we have also calculated dielectric function, refractive index, absorption coefficient, conductivity, loss function and reflectivity. Results of absorption coefficient and conductivity are in good agreement with the band structure results. The effect of temperature and pressure on the bulk modulus, Debye temperature, specific heat and also on the thermal expansion coefficient are derived from the quasi-harmonic Debye model with phononic effect in both cases.The results for the elastic and electronic properties are compared to experimental measurements and with the results obtained in different band-structure calculations, however, no optical data are available for comparison.

description: We study the baby Skyrme model as a theory that interpolates between two distinct BPS systems. For this a near-BPS approximation can be used which, however, involves a small deviation from each of the two BPS limits. We provide analytical explanation and numerical support for the validity of this approximation. We then study the set of all possible supersymmetric extensions of the baby Skyrme model with ${\cal N}=1$ and the particular ones with extended ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetries and relate this to the above mentioned almost-BPS approximation.

description: We calculate neutrino absorption rates due to charged-current reactions $ν_e+n \rightarrow e^- + p $ and $\barν_e+p \rightarrow e^+ + n $ in the outer regions of a newly born neutron star called the neutrino-sphere. To improve on recent work which has shown that nuclear mean fields enhance the $ν_e$ cross-section and suppress the $\barν_e$ cross-section, we employ realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions that fit measured scattering phase shifts. Using these interactions we calculate the momentum-, density-, and temperature-dependent nucleon self-energies in the Hartree-Fock approximation. A potential derived from chiral effective field theory and a pseudo-potential constructed to reproduce nucleon-nucleon phase shifts at the mean-field level are used to study the equilibrium proton fraction and the charged-current rates are studied in detail. We compare our results to earlier calculations obtained using phenomenological mean-field models and to those obtained in the virial expansion valid at low density. We find that for typical ambient conditions in the neutrino-sphere, $T=5-10$ MeV and $ρ=10^{11}-10^{13}$ g/cm$^3$, the difference between the $ν_{e}$ and $\barν_e$ absorption rates is much larger than predicted earlier. Our results have important implications for heavy-element nucleosynthesis in supernovae and for supernova neutrino detection.
Revisiting the holographic dark energy in a non-flat universe: alternative model and cosmological parameter constraints

description: We propose an alternative model for the holographic dark energy in a non-flat universe. This new model differs from the previous one in that the IR length cutoff $L$ is taken to be exactly the event horizon size in a non-flat universe, which is more natural and theoretically/conceptually concordant with the model of holographic dark energy in a flat universe. We constrain the model using the recent observational data including the type Ia supernova data from SNLS3, the baryon acoustic oscillation data from 6dF, SDSS-DR7, BOSS-DR11, and WiggleZ, the cosmic microwave background data from Planck, and the Hubble constant measurement from HST. In particular, since some previous studies have shown that the color-luminosity parameter $β$ of supernovae is likely to vary during the cosmic evolution, we also consider such a case that $β$ in SNLS3 is time-varying in our data fitting. Compared to the constant $β$ case, the time-varying $β$ case reduces the value of $χ^2$ by about 35 and results in that $β$ deviates from a constant at about 5$σ$ level, well consistent with the previous studies. For the parameter $c$ of the holographic dark energy, the constant $β$ fit gives $c=0.65\pm 0.05$ and the time-varying $β$ fit yields $c=0.72\pm 0.06$. In addition, an open universe is favored (at about 2$σ$) for the model by the current data.

description: We propose that bilayer graphene can provide an experimental realization of deconfined criticality. Current experiments indicate the presence of Néel order in the presence of a moderate magnetic field. The Néel order can be destabilized by application of a transverse electric field. The resulting electric field induced state is likely to have valence bond solid order, and the transition can acquire the emergent fractionalized and gauge excitations of deconfined criticality.

description: We have determined the depth-resolved magnetization structures of a series of highly ordered Sr$_{2}$CrReO$_{6}$ (SCRO) ferrimagnetic epitaxial films via combined studies of x-ray reflectometry, polarized neutron reflectometry and SQUID magnetometry. The SCRO films deposited directly on (LaAlO$_3$)$_{0.3}$(Sr$_2$AlTaO$_6$)$_{0.7}$ or SrTiO$_{3}$ substrates show reduced magnetization of similar width near the interfaces with the substrates, despite having different degrees of strain. When the SCRO film is deposited on a Sr$_{2}$CrNbO$_{6}$ (SCNO) double perovskite buffer layer, the width the interfacial region with reduced magnetization is reduced, agreeing with an improved Cr/Re ordering. However, the relative reduction of the magnetization averaged over the interfacial regions are comparable among the three samples. Interestingly, we found that the magnetization suppression region is wider than the Cr/Re antisite disorder region at the interface between SCRO and SCNO.

description: We report high resolution Angle Resolved PhotoElectron Spectroscopy (ARPES) results on the (001) cleavage surface of YbB$_{6}$, a rare-earth compound which has been recently predicted to host surface electronic states with topological character. We observe two types of well-resolved metallic states, whose Fermi contours encircle the time-reversal invariant momenta of the YbB$_{6}$(001) surface Brillouin zone, and whose full (E,$k$)-dispersion relation can be measured wholly unmasked by states from the rest of the electronic structure. Although the two-dimensional character of these metallic states is confirmed by their lack of out-of-plane dispersion, two new aspects are revealed in these experiments. Firstly, these states do not resemble two branches of opposite, linear velocity that cross at a Dirac point, but rather straightforward parabolas which terminate to high binding energy with a clear band bottom. Secondly, these states are sensitive to time-dependent changes of the YbB$_{6}$ surface under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Adding the fact that these data from cleaved YbB$_{6}$ surfaces also display spatial variations in the electronic structure, it appears there is little in common between the theoretical expectations for an idealized YbB$_{6}$(001) crystal truncation on the one hand, and these ARPES data from real cleavage surfaces on the other.

description: Theory of one-electron transition density matrices has been formulated within the time-independent coupled cluster method for the polarization propagator [R. Moszynski, P. S. Żuchowski, and B. Jeziorski, Coll. Czech. Chem. Commun. {\bf 70}, 1109 (2005)]. Working expressions have been obtained and implemented with the coupled cluster method limited to single, double, and linear triple excitations (CC3). Selected dipole and quadrupole transition probabilities of the alkali earth atoms, computed with the new transition density matrices are compared to the experimental data. Good agreement between theory and experiment is found. The results obtained with the new approach are of the same quality as the results obtained with the linear response coupled cluster theory (LRCC). The one-electron density matrices for the ground state in the CC3 approximation have also been implemented. The dipole moments for a few representative diatomic molecules have been computed with several variants of the new approach, and the results are discussed to choose the approximation with the best balance between the accuracy and computational efficiency.

description: Bargeld ist in den meisten Ländern weltweit nach wie vor das dominierende Zahlungsmittel, wobei seine Bedeutung in Afrika am größten und in Ozeanien am geringsten ist. Deutschland lag 2020 mit seinen rund 60 % der Transaktionen in bar in Europa im oberen Mittelfeld. Im Vergleich zu 2017 mit 74 % war der Rückgang der Bargeldnutzung jedoch massiv – vermutlich auch aufgrund der Coronapandemie. Gewinner dieser Entwicklung sind in Deutschland vor allem die Anbieter von Debit- und Kreditkarten. Diese werden als Plastikkarten im stationären Handel und als virtuelle Karten zur Abwicklung von mobilem Bezahlen und bei Internetbezahlverfahren eingesetzt. Neue Player wie BigTechs und FinTechs werden zunehmend im Zahlungsverkehr aktiv und bieten Produkte und Dienstleistungen für bequemeres Bezahlen mit verschiedenen Zusatzfunktionen an.

description: We investigate gravitational effects on the so-called multiple point criticality principle (MPCP) at the Planck scale. The MPCP requires two degenerate vacua, whose necessary conditions are expressed by vanishing Higgs quartic coupling $λ(M_{\rm Pl})=0$ and vanishing its $β$ function $β_λ(M_{\rm Pl})=0$. We discuss a case that a specific form of gravitational corrections are assumed to contribute to $β$ functions of coupling constants although it is accepted that gravitational corrections do not alter the running of the standard model (SM) couplings. To satisfy the above two boundary conditions at the Planck scale, we find that the top pole mass and the Higgs mass should be $170.8\,{\rm GeV} \lesssim M_t\lesssim 171.7\,{\rm GeV}$ and $M_h=125.7\pm0.4\,{\rm GeV}$, respectively, as well as include suitable magnitude of gravitational effects (a coefficient of gravitational contribution as $|a_λ| > 2$). In this case, however, since the Higgs quartic coupling $λ$ becomes negative below the Planck scale, two vacua are not degenerate. We find that $M_h \gtrsim 131.5\,{\rm GeV}$ with $M_t \gtrsim 174\,{\rm GeV}$ is required by the realization of the MPCP. Therefore, the MPCP at the Planck scale cannot be realized in the SM and also the SM with gravity since $M_h \gtrsim 131.5\,{\rm GeV}$ is experimentally ruled out.

description: During the scheduled high luminosity upgrade of LHC, the world's largest particle physics accelerator at CERN, the position sensitive silicon detectors installed in the vertex and tracking part of the CMS experiment will face more intense radiation environment than the present system was designed for. Thus, to upgrade the tracker to required performance level, comprehensive measurements and simulations studies have already been carried out. Essential information of the performance of an irradiated silicon detector is obtained by monitoring its charge collection efficiency (CCE). From the evolution of CCE with fluence, it is possible to directly observe the effect of the radiation induced defects to the ability of the detector to collect charge carriers generated by traversing minimum ionizing particles (mip). In this paper the numerically simulated CCE and CCE loss between the strips of irradiated silicon strip detectors are presented. The simulations based on Synopsys Sentaurus TCAD framework were performed before and after irradiation for fluences up to $1.5\times10^{15}$ $\textrm{n}_{\textrm{eq}}$cm$^{-2}$ for the n-on-p sensors. A two level and non-uniform three level defect models were applied for the proton irradiation simulations and two level model for neutrons. The results are presented together with the measurements of strip detectors irradiated by different particles and fluences and show considerable agreement for both CCE and its position dependency.

description: Motivated by the discrepancies noted recently between the theoretical calculations of the electromagnetic $ωπ$ form factor and certain experimental data, we investigate this form factor using analyticity and unitarity in a framework known as the method of unitarity bounds.We use a QCD correlator computed on the spacelike axis by operator product expansion and perturbative QCD as input, and exploit unitarity and the positivity of its spectral function, including the two-pion contribution that can be reliably calculated using high-precision data on the pion form factor. From this information, we derive upper and lower bounds on the modulus of the $ωπ$ form factor in the elastic region. The results provide a significant check on those obtained with standard dispersion relations, confirming the existence of a disagreement with experimental data in the region around 0.6 GeV.

description: We provide a familiy of transparent tight-binding models with non-trivial potentials and site-dependent hopping parameters. Their feasibility is discussed in electromagnetic resonators, dielectric slabs and quantum-mechanical traps. In the second part of the paper, the arrays are obtained through a generalization of supersymmetric quantum mechanics in discrete variables. The formalism includes a finite-difference Darboux transformation applied to the scattering matrix of a periodic array. A procedure for constructing a hierarchy of discrete hamiltonians is indicated and a particular biparametric family is given. The corresponding potentials and hopping functions are identified as solitary waves, pointing to a discrete spinorial generalization of the Korteweg-deVries family.

В основу модели расслоения исходной жидкости положен механизм флуктуационного возникновения критических зародышей второй фазы и их рост, лимитируемый диффузией растворенного вещества. В качестве примера рассмотрена динамика расслоения и кристаллизации бинарных сплавов Cu + 50 % Pb и Al + 20 % In при непрерывном вытягивании слитка сверху вниз из зоны нагрева в систему охлаждения. Приводятся условия образования стержневой либо глобулярной композиционной структуры в непрерывном слитке с плоским фронтом кристаллизации. Сравнение результатов расчета показало удовлетворительное согласие с известными экспериментальными данными.

Fixed Points Structure & Effective Fractional Dimension for O(N) Models with Long-Range Interactions

description: We study O(N) models with power-law interactions by using functional renormalization group methods: we show that both in Local Potential Approximation (LPA) and in LPA' their critical exponents can be computed from the ones of the corresponding short-range O(N) models at an effective fractional dimension. In LPA such effective dimension is given by $D_{eff}=2d/σ$, where d is the spatial dimension and $d+σ$ is the exponent of the power-law decay of the interactions. In LPA' the prediction by Sak [Phys. Rev. B 8, 1 (1973)] for the critical exponent $η$ is retrieved and an effective fractional dimension $D_{eff}'$ is obtained. Using these results we determine the existence of multicritical universality classes of long-range O(N) models and we present analytical predictions for the critical exponent $ν$ as a function of $σ$ and N: explicit results in 2 and 3 dimensions are given. Finally, we propose an improved LPA" approximation to describe the full theory space of the models where both short-range and long-range interactions are present and competing: a long-range fixed point is found to branch from the short-range fixed point at the critical value $σ_* = 2-η_{SR}$ (where $η_{SR}$ is the anomalous dimension of the short-range model), and to subsequently control the critical behavior of the system for $σ< σ_*$.

description: We demonstrate tuning of single quantum dot emission lines by the combined action of the dynamic acoustic field of a radio frequency surface acoustic wave and a static electric field. Both tuning parameters are set all-electrically in a LiNbO$_{3}$-GaAs hybrid device. The surface acoustic wave is excited directly on the strong piezoelectric LiNbO$_{3}$ onto which a GaAs-based p-i-n photodiode containing a single layer of quantum dots was epitaxially transferred. We demonstrate dynamic spectral tuning with bandwidths exceeding 3 meV of single quantum dot emission lines due to deformation potential coupling. The center energy of the dynamic spectral oscillation can be independently programmed simply by setting the bias voltage applied to the diode.
