description: The paper is devoted to optimization of resonances in a 1-D open optical cavity. The cavity's structure is represented by its dielectric permittivity function e(s). It is assumed that e(s) takes values in the range 1 <= e_1 <= e(s) <= e_2. The problem is to design, for a given (real) frequency, a cavity having a resonance with the minimal possible decay rate. Restricting ourselves to resonances of a given frequency, we define cavities and resonant modes with locally extremal decay rate, and then study their properties. We show that such locally extremal cavities are 1-D photonic crystals consisting of alternating layers of two materials with extreme allowed dielectric permittivities e_1 and e_2. To find thicknesses of these layers, a nonlinear eigenvalue problem for locally extremal resonant modes is derived. It occurs that coordinates of interface planes between the layers can be expressed via arg-function of corresponding modes. As a result, the question of minimization of the decay rate is reduced to a four-dimensional problem of finding the zeroes of a function of two variables.

description: The detection of molecular signatures of selection is one of the major concerns of modern population genetics. A widely used strategy in this context is to compare samples from several populations, and to look for genomic regions with outstanding genetic differentiation between these populations. Genetic differentiation is generally based on allele frequency differences between populations, which are measured by Fst or related statistics. Here we introduce a new statistic, denoted hapFLK, which focuses instead on the differences of haplotype frequencies between populations. In contrast to most existing statistics, hapFLK accounts for the hierarchical structure of the sampled populations. Using computer simulations, we show that each of these two features - the use of haplotype information and of the hierarchical structure of populations - significantly improves the detection power of selected loci, and that combining them in the hapFLK statistic provides even greater power. We also show that hapFLK is robust with respect to bottlenecks and migration and improves over existing approaches in many situations. Finally, we apply hapFLK to a set of six sheep breeds from Northern Europe, and identify seven regions under selection, which include already reported regions but also several new ones. We propose a method to help identifying the population(s) under selection in a detected region, which reveals that in many of these regions selection most likely occurred in more than one population. Furthermore, several of the detected regions correspond to incomplete sweeps, where the favourable haplotype is only at intermediate frequency in the population(s) under selection.

description: It has been argued by Caron-Huot that infrared contributions to the jet quenching parameter in hot QCD, denoted by qhat, can be extracted from an analysis of a certain static-potential related observable within the dimensionally reduced effective field theory. Following this philosophy, the order of magnitude of a non-perturbative contribution to qhat from the colour-magnetic scale, g^2T/pi, is estimated. The result is small; it is probably below the parametrically perturbative but in practice slowly convergent contributions from the colour-electric scale, whose all-orders resummation therefore remains an important challenge.

description: A search for light dark matter using low-threshold data from the single phase liquid xenon scintillation detector XMASS, has been conducted. Using the entire 835 kg inner volume as target, the analysis threshold can be lowered to 0.3 keVee (electron-equivalent) to search for light dark matter. With low-threshold data corresponding to a 5591.4 kg$\cdot$day exposure of the detector and without discriminating between nuclear-recoil and electronic events, XMASS excludes part of the parameter space favored by other experiments.

description: The spectacular head-on collision of the two gas-rich galaxies of the Taffy system, UGC 12914/15, gives us a unique opportunity to study the consequences of a direct ISM-ISM collision. To interpret existing multi-wavelength observations, we made dynamical simulations of the Taffy system including a sticky particle component. To compare simulation snapshots to HI and CO observations, we assume that the molecular fraction of the gas depends on the square root of the gas volume density. For the comparison of our simulations with observations of polarized radio continuum emission, we calculated the evolution of the 3D large-scale magnetic field for our simulations. The induction equations including the time-dependent gas-velocity fields from the dynamical model were solved for this purpose. Our simulations reproduce the stellar distribution of the primary galaxy, UGC 12914, the prominent HI and CO gas bridge, the offset between the CO and HI emission in the bridge, the bridge isovelocity vectors parallel to the bridge, the HI double-line profiles in the bridge region, the large line-widths (~200 km/s) in the bridge region, the high field strength of the bridge large-scale regular magnetic field, the projected magnetic field vectors parallel to the bridge and the strong total power radio continuum emission from the bridge. The stellar distribution of the secondary model galaxy is more perturbed than observed. The observed distortion of the HI envelope of the Taffy system is not reproduced by our simulations which use initially symmetric gas disks. The model allows us to define the bridge region in three dimensions. We estimate the total bridge gas mass (HI, warm and cold H2) to be 5 to 6 10^9 M_sun, with a molecular fraction M_H2/M_HI of about unity (abrigded).

Subsurface Supergranular Vertical Flows as Measured Using Large Distance Separations in Time-Distance Helioseismology

description: As large--distance rays (say, 10\,-\,$24 ^\circ$) approach the solar surface approximately vertically, travel times measured from surface pairs for these large separations are mostly sensitive to vertical flows, at least for shallow flows within a few Mm of the solar surface. All previous analyses of supergranulation have used smaller separations and have been hampered by the difficulty of separating the horizontal and vertical flow components. We find that the large separation travel times associated with supergranulation cannot be studied using the standard phase-speed filters of time-distance helioseismology. These filters, whose use is based upon a refractive model of the perturbations, reduce the resultant travel time signal by at least an order of magnitude at some distances. More effective filters are derived. Modeling suggests that the center--annulus travel time difference $[δt_{\rm{oi}}]$ in the separation range $Δ=10$\,-\,$24 ^\circ$ is insensitive to the horizontally diverging flow from the centers of the supergranules and should lead to a constant signal from the vertical flow. Our measurement of this quantity, $5.1 \pm 0.1\secs$, is constant over the distance range. This magnitude of signal cannot be caused by the level of upflow at cell centers seen at the photosphere of $10\ms$ extended in depth. It requires the vertical flow to increase with depth. A simple Gaussian model of the increase with depth implies a peak upward flow of $240\ms$ at a depth of $2.3\Mm$ and a peak horizontal flow of $700\ms$ at a depth of $1.6\Mm$.

description: We show that the simplest supersymmetric scenario where a large Higgs mass can be attained at tree-level for any ratio of the Higgs vacuum expectation values corresponds to the case where the neutrino masses are generated through the type II seesaw mechanism. This allows a standard model-like Higgs with mass around 125 GeV without assuming a heavy spectrum for the stops. We show that our results are consistent with the bounds coming from perturbativity up to the grand unified scale, discuss gauge coupling unification and possible signals at the Large Hadron Collider.

description: We present a novel method for efficient sorting of photons prepared in states of orbital angular momentum (OAM) and angular position (ANG). A log-polar optical transform is used in combination with a holographic beam-splitting method to achieve better mode discrimination and reduced cross-talk than reported previously. Simulating this method for 7 modes, we have calculated an improved mutual information of 2.43 bits/photon and 2.29 bits/photon for OAM and ANG modes respectively. In addition, we present preliminary results from an experimental implementation of this technique. This method is expected to have important applications for high-dimensional quantum key distribution systems.

description: Thermonuclear bursts from slowly accreting neutron stars (NSs) have proven difficult to detect, yet they are potential probes of the thermal properties of the neutron star interior. During the first year of a systematic all-sky search for X-ray bursts using the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope we have detected 15 thermonuclear bursts from the NS low-mass X-ray binary 4U 0614+09, when it was accreting at nearly 1% of the Eddington limit. We measured an average burst recurrence time of 12+/-3 d (68% confidence interval) between March 2010 and March 2011, classified all bursts as normal duration bursts and placed a lower limit on the recurrence time of long/intermediate bursts of 62 d (95% confidence level). We discuss how observations of thermonuclear bursts in the hard X-ray band compare to pointed soft X-ray observations, and quantify such bandpass effects on measurements of burst radiated energy and duration. We put our results for 4U 0614+09 in the context of other bursters and briefly discuss the constraints on ignition models. Interestingly, we find that the burst energies in 4U 0614+09 are on average between those of normal duration bursts and those measured in long/intermediate bursts. Such a continuous distribution in burst energy provides a new observational link between normal and long/intermediate bursts. We suggest that the apparent bimodal distribution that defined normal and long/intermediate duration bursts during the last decade could be due to an observational bias towards detecting only the longest and most energetic bursts from slowly accreting NSs.

description: Stress, by the definition set forth by Cohen et al., is inherently environmental, yet, somehow, in a world where we control many major aspects of our environment, stress is becoming an increasingly prevalent and severe concern. The modern environment, unnaturally textureless, dull, and lifeless is not only unstimulating, but lacks the biophilic connection to nature that has been shown to relieve psychological and physiological stress. In this study, we examine the relationship between biophilic environments and stress through deliberate stress induction and stress reduction exercises with a focus on alternative biophilic materials (bamboo, textured concrete). In this study, biophilic environments were found to significantly decrease physiological stress responses while mindfulness meditation was found to significantly increase mood and decrease somatic distress. The results of this study demonstrate that further consideration should be invested into not only how, and out of what, our environments are formed but also into the anticipated experience of occupants.

description: We show that chaotic classical dynamics associated to the volume of discrete grains of space leads to quantal spectra that are gapped between zero and nonzero volume. This strengthens the connection between spectral discreteness in the quantum geometry of gravity and tame ultraviolet behavior. We complete a detailed analysis of the geometry of a pentahedron, providing new insights into the volume operator and evidence of classical chaos in the dynamics it generates. These results reveal an unexplored realm of application for chaos in quantum gravity.

In [3] rate of convergence results in homogenization and estimates on the difference between the averaged Green's function and the homogenized Green's function for random environments which satisfy a Poincaré inequality were obtained. Here these results are extended to certain environments with long range correlations. These environments are simply related via a convolution to environments which do satisfy a Poincaré inequality.

description: Daylight plays an important role in building environments. An environment with better indoor daylight can improve occupants’ health and productivity. Shading devices are often used to avoid visual discomfort while maximizing daylight availability. The most used shading device nowadays are blinds with unified slat angle control in regular shapes. With trend towards uniqueness in high-rise buildings, shading devices with irregular shapes are becoming popular and more and more commonly used. However, the traditional method of finding an optimal control strategy is unfit for dynamic irregular shape shading devices. Compared with regular shape shading devices, irregular shape shading devices have various rotation angles, and each component can be independently controlled. Therefore, irregular shading devices require the collaboration of multiple components to control indoor daylight. However, the complex combinations of different angles and different components make it impossible for the traditional method to find the optimal control strategy. To address this issue , this paper proposes a selflearning shading control algorithm based on reinforcement learning trained towards optimal working surfaces throughout the day. The irregular shading device will learn the optimal angle based on discrepancies between the desired and the current indoor visual environment quality.

description: This document is an action plan, the deliverable 2.2 of the TRANSFORM project, within WP2 Framework definition, oversight and shared learning, resulting from the work carried-out in the first year of the project for the task 2.4 Shared Learning. The activities organised from M1 to M12 initiated and set the ground for Shared Learning for year 2 and 3 of the project. BE participation, the T2.4 leader, in close collaboration with the two other cluster leaders (FGB in Lombardy and SfC in Catalonia) organised a number of Shared Learning activities in year 1 of the project to build common ground and define a meaningful action plan. The monthly cross clusters meetings and the three mutual learning sessions (two workshops, in July and October 2020, and one WP2 session during the project meeting in September) enabled the cluster leaders to gain a deep understanding of needs for mutual learning but also for a domain that they decided to develop: capacity building. It also made appear key priorities for the fulfillment of TRANSFORM objectives and cluster goals at regional level. This action plan sets the basis for a key activity of TRANSFORM, namely to provide a frame for partners to regularly share updates on ongoing activities, pros and cons of the methodological approach adopted, challenges to institutional changes, and impact of concrete changes achieved. An additional important need that has appeared in the three regions involved in the project is to develop assessment tools and indicators to evaluate the impact of the participatory activities organised by each cluster, aiming to have an impact on regional R&I and more particularly Smart Specialisation Strategy - S3. The action plan includes: • Monthly cross-cluster leaders meetings to make sure the two levels of activities in the project (cluster-regional and consortium-EU) communicate and share learnings throughout the project; • Mutual learning activities, four times a year for all TRANSFORM partners to tackle challenges encountered at regional level, the engagement of the quadruple helix, the implementation of cluster-specific methodologies, the development of local evaluation frameworks and indicators and the coordination of tasks from WP2 and WP7. These activities also include the three Mutual Learning Workshops that are foreseen during project meetings. • Capacity building opportunities addressing various topics including RRI and its implementation in regional R&I frameworks, Smart Specialisation Strategies (S3), the three participatory methodologies tested by clusters, the development of local evaluation frameworks and indicators and the sharing of best practices of hands-on experience of RRI. • The Shared Learning Action Plan will support clusters’ actions towards advocating for the integration of participatory methods at a systemic level in regional R&I policies and S3 in particular, including the testing of local evaluation frameworks and quantitative and qualitative indicators that will support this systemic change.

description: The TRANSFORM Data Management Plan (DMP) is the Deliverable 1.1 (D1.1) from the coordination and support action (CSA), TRANSFORM project - grant agreement (GA) 872687. This deliverable introduces the first version of the DMP. The DMP describes the way in which the TRANSFORM consortium will manage the datasets that will emerge from the project, and how best practices in terms of metadata and archiving will be used to ensure that the data will be findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) for other potential users. Furthermore, the DMP provides information about what datasets the consortium is aiming to preserve and in which format. The DMP will allow these data to be aligned with the Horizon 2020 Open Research Data pilot, for which TRANSFORM opted in.

Orion Revisited - I. The massive cluster in front of the Orion Nebula Cluster

description: The aim of this work is to characterize the stellar population between Earth and the Orion A molecular cloud where the well known star formation benchmark Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) is embedded. We use the denser regions the Orion A cloud to block optical background light, effectively isolating the stellar population in front of it. We then use a multi-wavelength observational approach to characterize the cloud's foreground stellar population. We find that there is a rich stellar population in front of the Orion A cloud, from B-stars to M-stars, with a distinct 1) spatial distribution, 2) luminosity function, and 3) velocity dispersion from the reddened population inside the Orion A cloud. The spatial distribution of this population peaks strongly around NGC 1980 (iota Ori) and is, in all likelihood, the extended stellar content of this poorly studied cluster. We infer an age of ~4-5 Myr for NGC 1980 and estimate a cluster population of the order of 2000 stars, which makes it one of the most massive clusters in the entire Orion complex. What is currently taken in the literature as the ONC is then a mix of several intrinsically different populations, namely: 1) the youngest population, including the Trapezium cluster and ongoing star formation in the dense gas inside the nebula, 2) the foreground population, dominated by the NGC 1980 cluster, and 3) the poorly constrained population of foreground and background Galactic field stars. Our results support a scenario where the ONC and L1641N are not directly associated with NGC 1980, i.e., they are not the same population emerging from its parental cloud, but are instead distinct overlapping populations. This result calls for a revision of most of the observables in the benchmark ONC region (e.g., ages, age spread, cluster size, mass function, disk frequency, etc.). (abridged)
