description: A thin single-element THGEM-based, Resistive-Plate WELL (RPWELL) detector was operated with 150 GeV/c muon and pion beams in Ne/(5%CH$_4$), Ar/(5%CH$_4$) and Ar/(7%CO$_2$); signals were recorded with 1 cm$^2$ square pads and SRS/APV25 electronics. Detection efficiency values greater than 98% were reached in all the gas mixtures, at average pad multiplicity of 1.2. The use of the 10$^9$Ωcm resistive plate resulted in a completely discharge-free operation also in intense pion beams. The efficiency remained essentially constant at 98-99% up to fluxes of $\sim$10$^4$Hz/cm$^2$, dropping by a few % when approaching 10$^5$ Hz/cm$^2$. These results pave the way towards cost-effective, robust, efficient, large-scale detectors for a variety of applications in future particle, astro-particle and applied fields. A potential target application is digital hadron calorimetry.

description: Small 3He-rich solar energetic particle (SEP) events with their anomalous abundances, markedly different from solar system, provide evidence for a unique acceleration mechanism that operates routinely near solar active regions. Although the events are sometimes accompanied by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) it is believed that mass and isotopic fractionation is produced directly in the flare sites on the Sun. We report on a large-scale extreme ultraviolet (EUV) coronal wave observed in association with 3He-rich SEP events. In the two examples discussed, the observed waves were triggered by minor flares and appeared concurrently with EUV jets and type III radio bursts but without CMEs. The energy spectra from one event are consistent with so-called class-1 (characterized by power laws) while the other with class-2 (characterized by rounded 3He and Fe spectra) 3He-rich SEP events, suggesting different acceleration mechanisms in the two. The observation of EUV waves suggests that large-scale disturbances, in addition to more commonly associated jets, may be responsible for the production of 3He-rich SEP events.

description: In this work, we employ the $SO(2)$-rotations of a two-component, one-, two- and three-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger system at and near the Manakov limit, to construct vector solitons and vortex structures. This way, stable stationary dark-bright solitons and their higher-dimensional siblings are transformed into robust oscillatory dark-dark solitons (and generalizations thereof), with and without a harmonic confinement. By analogy to the one-dimensional case, vector higher-dimensional structures take the form of vortex-vortex states in two dimensions and, e.g., vortex ring-vortex ring ones in three dimensions. We consider the effects of unequal (self- and cross-) interaction strengths, where the $SO(2)$ symmetry is only approximately satisfied, showing the dark-dark soliton oscillation is generally robust. Similar features are found in higher dimensions too, although our case examples suggest that phenomena such as phase separation may contribute to the associated dynamics. These results, in connection with the experimental realization of one-dimensional variants of such states in optics and Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), suggest the potential observation of the higher-dimensional bound states proposed herein.

Quantifying the failure of Schrödinger dynamics in the free expansion of relativistic particles

description: It is known that Schrödinger equation fails in describing the dynamics of highly energetic particles. We propose to quantify this lack of Lorentz covariance by evaluating the probability for a particle to be measured outside the set of light cones which are compatible to its initial wave function. We consider a simple case of a particle released from a box, which, in turn, is inside a larger container. It is shown that besides the increasing error at relativistic energies, there may be a complete breakdown, with Schrödinger dynamics implying in deterministic, superluminal signaling for Lorentz factors above 129. In addition, we give an exact asymptotic expression for the violation in local causality by employing the stationary exponent method, from which the Compton wave length of the particle naturally arises as the relevant scale for the stationary points.

description: We present improvements in both theoretical understanding and experimental implementation of the cross resonance (CR) gate that have led to shorter two-qubit gate times and interleaved randomized benchmarking fidelities exceeding 99%. The CR gate is an all-microwave two-qubit gate offers that does not require tunability and is therefore well suited to quantum computing architectures based on 2D superconducting qubits. The performance of the gate has previously been hindered by long gate times and fidelities averaging 94-96%. We have developed a calibration procedure that accurately measures the full CR Hamiltonian. The resulting measurements agree with theoretical analysis of the gate and also elucidate the error terms that have previously limited the gate fidelity. The increase in fidelity that we have achieved was accomplished by introducing a second microwave drive tone on the target qubit to cancel unwanted components of the CR Hamiltonian.

description: We report on single-object spectroscopic studies of a characteristic set of three resonances which appear in GaAlAs/AlAs quantum dot structures. The experiments included the photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy, photon-correlation measurements, analysis of the linear polarization of the emission spectra as well as the PL and PLE spectroscopy performed as a function of magnetic field. The investigated resonances are assigned to three different states of a positively charged exciton: a singlet ground state, a conventional triplet state (involving an electron from the ground state electronic $s$-shell), and additionally, a highly excited triplet state (involving the electron from the excited electronic $p$-shell). Advantageously (due to partially suppressed relaxation efficiency), the emission due to the highly excited triplet can seen in the spectra which allows us to scrupulously determine its properties and compare them to those of the conventional triplet state. Whereas both triplet states show similar patterns of the fine structure and Zeeman splitting, the splitting amplitudes are found to be significantly different for these two states. The presented results emphasize the role of the symmetry of the electronic state on the properties of the triplet states of the two holes + electron excitonic complex.

description: Estimation of quantum states is one of the most important steps in any quantum information processing experiment. A naive reconstruction of the density matrix from experimental measurements can often give density matrices which are not positive, and hence not physically acceptable. How do we ensure that at all stages of reconstruction, we keep the density matrix positive and normalized? Recently a method has been suggested based on maximum likelihood estimation, wherein the density matrix is guaranteed to be positive definite. We experimentally implement this protocol and demonstrate its utility on an NMR quantum information processor. We discuss several examples where we undertake such an estimation and compare it with the standard method of state estimation.

Probing the origin of quasi-periodic oscillations: the short-timescale evolution of phase lags in GRS 1915+105

description: We present a model-independent analysis of the short-timescale energy dependence of low frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the X-ray flux of GRS 1915+105. The QPO frequency in this source has previously been observed to depend on photon energy, with the frequency increasing with energy for observations with a high ($\gtrsim 2$ Hz) QPO frequency, and decreasing with energy for observations with a low ($\lesssim 2$ Hz) QPO frequency. As this observed energy dependence is currently unexplained, we investigate if it is intrinsic to the QPO mechanism by tracking phase lags on (sub)second timescales. We find that the phase lag between two broad energy bands systematically increases for $5$ - $10$ QPO cycles, after which the QPO becomes decoherent, the phase lag resets and the pattern repeats. This shows that the band with the higher QPO frequency is running away from the other band on short timescales, providing strong evidence that the energy dependence of the QPO frequency is intrinsic. We also find that the faster the QPO decoheres, the faster the phase lag increases, suggesting that the intrinsic frequency difference contributes to the decoherence of the QPO. We interpret our results within a simple geometric QPO model, where different radii in the inner accretion flow experience Lense-Thirring precession at different frequencies, causing the decoherence of the oscillation. By varying the spectral shape of the inner accretion flow as a function of radius, we are able to qualitatively explain the energy-dependent behaviour of both QPO frequency and phase lag.

description: We drastically improve the mode overlap between independently seeded, gain-switched laser diodes operating at gigahertz repetition rates by implementing a pulsed light seeding technique. Injecting pulsed light reduces the emission time jitter and enables frequency chirp synchronization while maintaining random optical phases of the emitted laser pulses. We measure interference of these pulsed sources both in the macroscopic regime, where we demonstrate near perfect mode overlap, and in the single photon regime, where we achieve a Hong-Ou-Mandel dip visibility of 0.499+/-0.004, thus saturating the theoretical limit of 0.5. The measurement results are reproduced by Monte-Carlo simulations with no free parameters. Our light source is an ideal solution for generation of high rate, indistinguishable coherent pulses for quantum information applications.

description: Aiming to understand the phase structure of lattice QCD at nonzero temperature and density, we study the phase transitions of QCD in an extended parameter space, where the number of flavor and quark masses are considered as parameters. Performing simulations of 2 flavor QCD and using the reweighting method, we investigate (2+Nf) flavor QCD at finite density, where two light flavors and Nf massive flavors exist. Calculating probability distribution functions, we determine the critical surface terminating first order phase transitions in the parameter space of the light quark mass, the heavy quark mass and the chemical potential. Through the study of the many flavor system, we discuss the phase structure of QCD at finite density.

description: Human movements in the real world and in cyberspace affect not only dynamical processes such as epidemic spreading and information diffusion but also social and economical activities such as urban planning and personalized recommendation in online shopping. Despite recent efforts in characterizing and modeling human behaviors in both the real and cyber worlds, the fundamental dynamics underlying human mobility have not been well understood. We develop a minimal, memory-based random walk model in limited space for reproducing, with a single parameter, the key statistical behaviors characterizing human movements in both spaces. The model is validated using big data from mobile phone and online commerce, suggesting memory-based random walk dynamics as the universal underpinning for human mobility, regardless of whether it occurs in the real world or in cyberspace.

description: Transition frequencies of atoms and ions are among the most accurately accessible quantities in nature, playing important roles in pushing the frontiers of science by testing fundamental laws of physics, in addition to a wide range of applications such as satellite navigation systems. Atomic clocks based on optical transitions approach uncertainties of $10^{-18}$, where full frequency descriptions are far beyond the reach of the SI second. Frequency ratios of such super clocks, on the other hand, are not subject to this limitation. They can therefore verify consistency and overall accuracy for an ensemble of super clocks, an essential step towards a redefinition of the second. However, with the measurement stabilities so far reported for such frequency ratios, a confirmation to $1 \times 10^{-18}$ uncertainty would require an averaging time $τ$ of multiple months. Here we report a measurement of the frequency ratio of neutral ytterbium and strontium clocks with a much improved stability of $4 \times 10^{-16} (τ/s)^{-1/2}$. Enabled by the high stability of optical lattice clocks interrogating hundreds of atoms, this marks a 90-fold reduction in the required averaging time over a previous record-setting experiment that determined the ratio of Al+ and Hg+ single-ion clocks to an uncertainty of $5.2 \times 10^{-17}$. For the Yb/Sr ratio, we find R = 1.207 507 039 343 337 749(55), with a fractional uncertainty of $4.6 \times 10^{-17}$.

description: An exact statistical mechanical derivation is given of the critical Casimir interactions between two defects in a planar lattice-gas Ising model. Each defect is a group of nearest-neighbor spins with modified coupling constants. Such a system can be regarded as a model of a binary liquid mixture with the molecules confined to a membrane and the defects mimicking protein inclusions embedded into the membrane. As suggested by recent experiments, certain cellular membranes appear to be tuned to the proximity of a critical demixing point belonging to the two-dimensional Ising universality class. Therefore one can expect the emergence of critical Casimir forces between membrane inclusions. These forces are governed by universal scaling functions, which we derive for simple defects. We prove that the scaling law appearing at criticality is the same for all types of defects considered here.

description: Three-dimensional Einstein gravity with negative cosmological constant admits stationary black holes that are not necessarily spherically symmetric. We propose boundary conditions for the near horizon region of these black holes that lead to a surprisingly simple near horizon symmetry algebra consisting of two affine u(1) current algebras. The symmetry algebra is essentially equivalent to the Heisenberg algebra. The associated charges give a specific example of "soft hair" on the horizon, as defined by Hawking, Perry and Strominger. We show that soft hair does not contribute to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black holes and "black flower" generalizations. From the near horizon perspective the conformal generators at asymptotic infinity appear as composite operators, which we interpret in the spirit of black hole complementarity. Another remarkable feature of our boundary conditions is that they are singled out by requiring that the whole spectrum is compatible with regularity at the horizon, regardless the value of the global charges like mass or angular momentum. Finally, we address black hole microstates and generalizations to cosmological horizons.

description: Light trapping in planar ultrathin-film solar cells is limited due to a small number of optical modes available in the thin-film slab. A nanostructured thin-film design could surpass this limit by providing broadband increase in the local density of states in a subwavelength volume and maintaining efficient coupling of light. Here we report a broadband metasurface design, enabling efficient and broadband absorption enhancement by direct coupling of incoming light to resonant modes of subwavelength-scale Mie nanoresonators defined in the thin-film active layer. Absorption was investigated both theoretically and experimentally in prototypes consisting of lithographically patterned, two-dimensional periodic arrays of silicon nanoresonators on silica substrates. A crossed trapezoid resonator shape of rectangular cross section is used to excite broadband Mie resonances across the visible and near-IR spectra. Our numerical simulations, optical absorption measurements and photocurrent spectral response measurements demonstrate that crossed trapezoidal Mie resonant structures enable angle-insensitive, broadband absorption. A short circuit current density of 12.0 mA/cm2 is achieved in 210 nm thick patterned Si films, yielding a 4-fold increase compared to planar films of the same thickness. It is suggested that silicon metasurfaces with Mie resonator arrays can provide useful insights to guide future ultrathin-film solar cell designs incorporating nanostructured thin active layers.

description: Current algorithms for context-free parsing inflict a trade-off between ease of understanding, ease of implementation, theoretical complexity, and practical performance. No algorithm achieves all of these properties simultaneously. Might et al. (2011) introduced parsing with derivatives, which handles arbitrary context-free grammars while being both easy to understand and simple to implement. Despite much initial enthusiasm and a multitude of independent implementations, its worst-case complexity has never been proven to be better than exponential. In fact, high-level arguments claiming it is fundamentally exponential have been advanced and even accepted as part of the folklore. Performance ended up being sluggish in practice, and this sluggishness was taken as informal evidence of exponentiality. In this paper, we reexamine the performance of parsing with derivatives. We have discovered that it is not exponential but, in fact, cubic. Moreover, simple (though perhaps not obvious) modifications to the implementation by Might et al. (2011) lead to an implementation that is not only easy to understand but also highly performant in practice.

description: Basic personality traits are typically assessed through questionnaires. Here we consider phone-based metrics as a way to asses personality traits. We use data from smartphones with custom data-collection software distributed to 730 individuals. The data includes information about location, physical motion, face-to-face contacts, online social network friends, text messages and calls. The data is further complemented by questionnaire-based data on basic personality traits. From the phone-based metrics, we define a set of behavioral variables, which we use in a prediction of basic personality traits. We find that predominantly, the Big Five personality traits extraversion and, to some degree, neuroticism are strongly expressed in our data. As an alternative to the Big Five, we investigate whether other linear combinations of the 44 questions underlying the Big Five Inventory are more predictable. In a tertile classification problem, basic dimensionality reduction techniques, such as independent component analysis, increase the predictability relative to the baseline from $11\%$ to $23\%$. Finally, from a supervised linear classifier, we were able to further improve this predictability to $33\%$. In all cases, the most predictable projections had an overweight of the questions related to extraversion and neuroticism. In addition, our findings indicate that the score system underlying the Big Five Inventory disregards a part of the information available in the 44 questions.

Criticality in vibrated frictional flows at finite strain rate

description: We evidence critical fluctuations in the strain-rate of granular flows that are weakly vibrated. Strikingly, the critical point arises at {\em finite} values of the mean strain rate and vibration strength, far away from the yielding critical point at zero flow rate. We show that the global rheology, as well as the amplitude and correlation time of the fluctuations, are consistent with a mean-field, Landau like description, where strain rate and stress act as conjugated variables. We introduce a general model which captures the observed phenomenology, and argue that this type of critical behavior generically arises when self fluidization competes with friction.

description: ECN and partners have developed a fabrication process based on nanoimprint lithography (NIL) of
textures for light trapping in thin film solar cells such as thin-film silicon, OPV, CIGS and CdTe. The process can be
applied in roll-to-roll mode when using a foil substrate or in roll-to-plate mode when using a glass substrate. The
lacquer also serves as an electrically insulating layer for cells if steel foil is used as substrate, to enable monolithic
series interconnection. In this paper we will show the superior light trapping in thin film silicon solar cells made on
steel foil with nanotextured back contacts. We have made single junction a-Si and uc-Si and a-Si/c-Si tandem cells,
where we applied several types of nano-imprints with random and periodic structures. We will show that the nanoimprinted
back contact enables more than 30% increase of current in comparison with non-textured back contacts and
that optimized periodic textures outperform state-of-the-art random textures. For a-Si cells we obtained Jsc of
18 mA/cm2 and for c-Si cells more than 24 mA/cm2. Tandem cells with a total Si absorber layer thickness of only
1350 nm have an initial efficiency of 11%.
Domain decomposition, multi-level integration and exponential noise reduction in lattice QCD

description: We explore the possibility of computing fermionic correlators on the lattice by combining a domain decomposition with a multi-level integration scheme. The quark propagator is expanded in series of terms with a well defined hierarchical structure. The higher the order of a term, the (exponentially) smaller its magnitude, the less local is its dependence on the gauge field. Once inserted in a Wick contraction, the gauge-field dependence of the terms in the resulting series can be factorized so that it is suitable for multi-level Monte Carlo integration. We test the strategy in quenched QCD by computing the disconnected correlator of two flavor-diagonal pseudoscalar densities, and a nucleon two-point function. In either cases we observe a significant exponential increase of the signal-to-noise ratio.

description: Analytical and numerical analysis of Bulk-Heterojunction Organic Photovoltaic Cell (BHJ-OPV) based
on blend of poly (3-hexylthiophene - 2, 5-diyl) (P3HT) as electron-donor and a soluble derivative of fullerene called
[6, 6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) as electron-acceptor is reported. The T-matrix method is applied
to the BHJ-OPV to determine the dependence of the holes recombination at the actives interfaces of the blend layer of
P3HT:PCBM upon the holes density of distribution and the photocurrent output density. In this approach the
competition role of the holes recombination, the monochromatic wavelength  of the incoming irradiation of the
spectrum of the visible and the photoactive layer thickness wb assuming to either interfaces a hole recombination
velocity is also paid attention.

description: We investigate a hybrid quantum system consisting of spatially separated resonant exchange qubits, defined in three-electron semiconductor triple quantum dots, that are coupled via a superconducting transmission line resonator. Drawing on methods from circuit quantum electrodynamics and Hartmann-Hahn double resonance techniques, we analyze three specific approaches for implementing resonator-mediated two-qubit entangling gates in both dispersive and resonant regimes of interaction. We calculate entangling gate fidelities as well as the rate of relaxation via phonons for resonant exchange qubits in silicon triple dots and show that such an implementation is particularly well-suited to achieving the strong coupling regime. Our approach combines the favorable coherence properties of encoded spin qubits in silicon with the rapid and robust long-range entanglement provided by circuit QED systems.

description: Plasmonic effects on metal particles are a promising way of trapping light in solar cells. We
experimentally demonstrate enhanced absorptance in thin silicon using metal nanoparticle arrays in conjunction with
a rear mirror. The nanoimprint process is a fast and scaleable method for producing nanoscale light trapping
structures. Incorporating both nanoparticle arrays and a rear mirror leads to a substantial increase in absorptance, due
to resonant interference effects. We numerically simulate a planar Ag mirror deposited onto a planarized sol-gel
silicon dioxide (SiO2) layer, and show the enhancement could reach 53%. We also find that a conformal Ag mirror
deposited on a sputtered SiO2 layer could give similar enhancement. Experimentally, we derive predicted Jsc
enhancements of up to 2.8 mA/cm2 from absorptance measurements. The experimental results show good qualitative
agreement with numerical simulations as the thickness is increased, with clear evidence of absorptance enhancement
via a Fabry-Perot resonance effect.

description: We present results on 1D-grating textures in ZnO:Al layers fabricated using direct pulsed laser
interference texturing. A typical laser written grating texture showed a haze value of 9% at 700 nm. The total
transmission of the film was not lowered compared to the film before texturing, while the sheet resistance increased
moderately by 15%. A-Si:H/μc-Si:H solar cells with laser textured ZnO:Al front contact layers so far reach an
efficiency of 10 % and current densities of 11.1 mA/cm², and 11.2 mA/cm² for top and bottom cell, respectively. This
is an increase of 16% for the bottom cell as compared to flat ZnO:Al. This texturing method allows to write textures
also in ZnO:Al films that cannot be texture etched in HCl. It can be improved further by using 2D periodic patterns
and by optimizing the groove period and depth, and may be applicable also to other solar cell technologies.

description: We are interested in a complete characterization of the contact-line singularity of thin-film flows for zero and nonzero contact angles. By treating the model problem of source-type self-similar solutions, we demonstrate that this singularity can be understood by the study of invariant manifolds of a suitable dynamical system. In particular, we prove regularity results for singular expansions near the contact line for a wide class of mobility exponents and for zero and nonzero dynamic contact angles. Key points are the reduction to center manifolds and identifying resonance conditions at equilibrium points. The results are extended to radially-symmetric source-type solutions in higher dimensions. Furthermore, we give dynamical systems proofs for the existence and uniqueness of self-similar droplet solutions in the nonzero dynamic contact-angle case.
