Alfven wave coupled with flow-driven fluid instability in interpenetrating plasmas
Creators: name: Vranjes, J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Alfven wave is analyzed in case of one quasineutral plasma propagating with some constant speed $v_0$ through another static quasineutral plasma. A dispersion equation is derived describing the Alfven wave coupled with the flow driven mode $ω= k v_0$ and solutions are discussed analytically and numerically. The usual solutions for two oppositely propagating Alfvén waves are substantially modified due to the flowing plasma. More profound is modification of the solution propagating in the negative direction with respect to the magnetic field and the plasma flow. For a large enough flow speed (exceeding the Alfven speed in the static plasma), this negative solution may become non-propagating, with frequency equal to zero. In this case it represents a spatial variation of the electromagnetic field. For greater flow speed it becomes a forward mode, and it may merge with the positive one. This merging of the two modes represents the starting point for a flow-driven instability, with two complex-conjugate solutions. The Alfven wave in interpenetrating plasmas is thus modified and coupled with the flow-driven mode and this coupled mode is shown to be growing when the flow speed is large enough. The energy for the instability is macroscopic kinetic energy of the flowing plasma. The dynamics of plasma particles caused by such a coupled wave still remains similar to the ordinary Alfven wave. This means that well-known stochastic heating by the Alfvén wave may work, and this should additionally support the potential role of the Alfven wave in the coronal heating.

description: We prove that the direct image complex for the $D$-twisted $SL_n$ Hitchin fibration is determined by its restriction to the elliptic locus, where the spectral curves are integral. The analogous result for $GL_n$ is due to P.-H. Chaudouard and G. Laumon. Along the way, we prove that the Tate module of the relative Prym group scheme is polarizable, and we also prove $δ$-regularity results for some auxiliary weak abelian fibrations.

Functionalism or Fallacy: Re-locating Hans Mol’s Identity Theory
Creators: name: Powell, Adam J.
Publisher: name: QuiEdit
Year: 2017
Subjects: sociology of religion; Hans Mol; identity

description: In this paper, the identity theory of religion outline by sociologist Hans Mol in the 1970s is introduced and located among the various competing theories of the mid-20th century. Using such comparisons, particularly with enigmatic sociological figures, it is argued that the original consensus that Mol represented yet another neo-functionalist theory of religion is fallacious. Instead, it is suggested that his theoretical framework, whilst ambitious and broad, is something other than functionalism and avoids easy categorisation when viewed from a 21st-century perspective on the history of ideas.

description: We explore the implications of hidden symmetries present in a particular quantum cosmological setting, extending the results reported in \cite{10,11}. In more detail, our case study is constituted by a spatially closed Friedmann-Lema\^ıtre-Robertson-Walker universe, in the presence of a conformally coupled scalar field. The $su(1,1)$ hidden symmetries of this model, together with the Hamiltonian constraint, lead to the gauge invariance of its corresponding Bargmann indices. We subsequently show that some factor-ordering choices can be related to the allowed spectrum of Bargmann indices and hence, to the hidden symmetries. Moreover, the presence of those hidden symmetries also implies a set of appropriate boundary conditions to choose from. In summary, our results suggest that factor ordering and boundary conditions can be intertwined when a quantum cosmological model has hidden symmetries.

Finding a Way Through the Crowd: How Keyword Choices Affect Discoverability in Crowdsourced Archival Tagging
Creators: name: Toussaint, Ayla
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: This study explores the challenges archivists face when determining how to structure a crowdsourced tagging initiative in their collections. Specifically, the study aims to research the differences in controlled vocabulary tagging and folksonomy tagging in volunteer based digital archival tagging initiatives. The current literature focuses on the merits of crowdsourced metadata in its various forms, but few sources explore which formats lead to better discoverability.   In order to begin to answer this question, five library, museum, and archives professionals were interviewed and asked to discuss their institution’s crowdsourcing projects in depth. Their answers were then mined for overarching themes and insights into crowdsourcing and vocabulary type.  In the end, it was discovered that there is no one correct vocabulary system for crowdsourcing, but that by answering key questions about specific institutions, collections, and volunteers, a unique approach can be created for each new project to ensure the best outcome.
Current fluctuations and large deviations for periodic TASEP on the relaxation scale

description: The one-dimensional totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) with $N$ particles on a periodic lattice of $L$ sites is an interacting particle system with hopping rates breaking detailed balance. The total time-integrated current of particles $Q$ between time $0$ and time $T$ is studied for this model in the thermodynamic limit $L,N\to\infty$ with finite density of particles $\overlineρ=N/L$. The current $Q$ takes at leading order a deterministic value which follows from the hydrodynamic evolution of the macroscopic density profile by the inviscid Burgers' equation. Using asymptotics of Bethe ansatz formulas for eigenvalues and eigenvectors, an exact expression for the probability distribution of the fluctuations of $Q$ is derived on the relaxation time scale $T\sim L^{3/2}$ for an evolution conditioned on simple initial and final states. For flat initial and final states, a large deviation function expressed simply in terms of the Airy function is obtained at small rescaled time $T/L^{3/2}$.

The tuning of light-matter coupling and dichroism in graphene for enhanced absorption: Implications for graphene-based optical absorption devices

description: The inter-band optical absorption in graphene characterized by its fine-structure constant has a universal value of 2.3\% independent of the material parameters. However, for several graphene-based photonic applications, enhanced optical absorption in graphene is highly desired. In this work, we quantify the tunability of optical absorption in graphene via the Fermi level in graphene, angle of incidence of the incident polarized light, and the dielectric constant of the surrounding dielectric media in which graphene is embedded. The influence of impurities adsorbed on the surface of graphene on the Lorentzian broadening of the spectral function of the density of states is analytically evaluated within the equilibrium Green's function formalism. Finally, we compute the differential absorption of right and left circularly-polarized light in graphene that is uniaxially and optically strained. The preferential absorption or circular dichroism is investigated for armchair and zigzag strain.

Subjects: subject: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (cs.CV)

description: A vision system that can assess its own performance and take appropriate actions online to maximize its effectiveness would be a step towards achieving the long-cherished goal of imitating humans. This paper proposes a method for performing an online performance analysis of local feature detectors, the primary stage of many practical vision systems. It advocates the spatial distribution of local image features as a good performance indicator and presents a metric that can be calculated rapidly, concurs with human visual assessments and is complementary to existing offline measures such as repeatability. The metric is shown to provide a measure of complementarity for combinations of detectors, correctly reflecting the underlying principles of individual detectors. Qualitative results on well-established datasets for several state-of-the-art detectors are presented based on the proposed measure. Using a hypothesis testing approach and a newly-acquired, larger image database, statistically-significant performance differences are identified. Different detector pairs and triplets are examined quantitatively and the results provide a useful guideline for combining detectors in applications that require a reasonable spatial distribution of image features. A principled framework for combining feature detectors in these applications is also presented. Timing results reveal the potential of the metric for online applications.

Subjects: fashion blogs; community; grassroot

description: In the collaborative context of the web 2.0 the blogging phenomenon has become one of the most common ways to communicate and share information through its user-generated content. In the blogosphere fashion blogs represent probably one of the liveliest segments. Focusing on fashion brands, fashion products, street style, and personal style, fashion blogs can be written by both fashion professionals and normal people with an interest in the fashion system. This phenomenon has become even more relevant since the fashion brands have recognized the role of fashion bloggers in influencing the final consumers as well as the role of peer – to – peer recommendations in shaping desires and attires of fashion blog users.

The paper presents the preliminary results of a netnographic analysis conducted on some of the most popular Italian ‘non-professional’ fashion blogs in order to map the different approach to this grassrooted blog phenomenon, and to categorize and interpret the blog postings and the audience comments concerning fashion product-related information.

description: The paper considers the recent critical and sceptical perspectives of social sciences on the Third sector. Above all, it reflects on the difficulty in identifying specificities of this supposed sector of contemporary society. Starting from this scenario, the author introduces the perspective of relational sociology as a possible way of defining a specificity of the sector, on the basis of the different ‘semantics of social relation’. In the second part of the work, a review of ten years of empirical research on the third sector, conducted in Italy, by a team of relational sociologists, puts the theory to the test finding both confirmations and disconfirmations.

description: Human longevity leaders with remarkably long lifespan play a crucial role in the advancement of longevity research. In this paper, we propose a stochastic model to describe the evolution of the age of the oldest person in the world by a Markov process, in which we assume that the births of the individuals follow a Poisson process with increasing intensity, lifespans of individuals are independent and can be characterized by a gamma-Gompertz distribution with time-dependent parameters. We utilize a dataset of the world's oldest person title holders since 1955, and we compute the maximum likelihood estimate for the parameters iteratively by numerical integration. Based on our preliminary estimates, the model provides a good fit to the data and shows that the age of the oldest person alive increases over time in the future. The estimated parameters enable us to describe the distribution of the age of the record holder process at a future time point.

Towards a No-Lose Theorem for Naturalness

description: We derive a phenomenological no-lose theorem for naturalness up to the TeV scale, which applies when quantum corrections to the Higgs mass from top quarks are canceled by perturbative BSM particles (top partners) of similar multiplicity due to to some symmetry. Null results from LHC searches already seem to disfavor such partners if they are colored. Any partners with SM charges and ~TeV masses will be exhaustively probed by the LHC and a future 100 TeV collider. Therefore, we focus on neutral top partners. While these arise in Twin Higgs theories, we analyze neutral top partners as model-independently as possible using EFT and Simplified Model methods. We classify all perturbative neutral top partner structures in order to compute their irreducible low-energy signatures at proposed future lepton and hadron colliders, as well as the irreducible tunings suffered in each scenario. Central to our theorem is the assumption that SM-charged BSM states appear in the UV completion of neutral naturalness, which is the case in all known examples. Direct production at the 100 TeV collider then allows this scale to be probed at the ~10 TeV level. We find that proposed future colliders probe any such scenario of naturalness with tuning of 10% or better. This provides very strong model-independent motivation for both new lepton and hadron colliders, which in tandem act as discovery machines for general naturalness. We put our results in context by discussing other possibilities for naturalness, including "swarms" of top partners, inherently non-perturbative or exotic physics, or theories without SM-charged states in the UV completion. Realizing a concrete scenario which avoids our arguments while still lacking experimental signatures remains an open model-building challenge.

A Comparison of The Art and Architecture Thesaurus and The Thesaurus for Graphic Materials for the Subject Cataloging of Islamic Architecture Images

description: Since the subjects of print materials and visual media vary, it is useful to have separate standardized vocabularies when cataloging different types of media. The Art and Architecture Thesaurus and The Thesaurus of Graphic Materials are two thesauri developed specifically for cataloging images; however, the development of the majority of thesauri and subject heading lists used widely throughout the United States took place in and for the United States, and therefore these resources tend to be very Western-centric. This creates difficulties when cataloging non-Western media, as many of the necessary terms may not be available or specific enough. This study compares the coverage of Islamic architecture terms in The Art and Architecture Thesaurus and The Thesaurus of Graphic Materials, two thesauri developed specifically for cataloging images.
Changing Your Lifestyle to Change the World. Who Is Willing to Take up the Challenge of the Globalisation of Risks?

Subjects: critical consumer; life style; social capital

description: This article aims to analyse the degree to which a sample of the Italian population has assimilated a new form of awareness of consumption. The focus is not on concrete behaviour, but on the willingness to ‘renounce something’ – in terms of consumer goods – for a general interest. It cannot be assumed that all consumers have the same level of sensitivity to the issues raised by environmentalists, the fair trade movement or degrowth; some of the discriminating variables that can influence the relative willingness of consumers to modify aspects of their behaviour include generalised trust, political culture of belonging, local traditions and perception of the degree of influence that individual action can have on the political context, together with the more traditional profile variables such as gender, age, level of education, area of residence and social class. It is assumed that a greater or lesser willingness to change lifestyle cannot be separated from the broader social context in which consumers act, as our daily lives are marked by frequent purchases that are often routine, but also subject to systematic assessments in terms of price, value for money, beauty, self-gratification and symbolic and material investments.

description: It is by now well understood that quantum dissipative processes can be harnessed and turned into a resource for quantum-information processing tasks. In this paper we demonstrate yet another way in which this is true by providing a dissipation-assisted protocol for the simulation of general Markovian dynamics. More precisely, we show how a suitable coherent coupling of a quantum system to a set of Markovian dissipating qubits allows one to enact an effective Liouvillian generator of any Lindbladian form. This effective dynamical generator arises from high-order virtual-dissipative processes and governs the system dynamics exactly in the limit of infinitely fast dissipation. Applications to the simulation of collective decoherence are discussed as an illustration.

description: This study identifies and examines bibliometric characteristics that differentiate  Competitive Intelligence scholarly literature found in the ABI/Inform Complete and  Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA) databases from January 1975 to  December 2004.  The term "competitive intelligence" is the most popular term to use when searching for  CI scholarly materials. The journal distribution for both databases follows Bradford's law  of scatter, but there is little overlap between the core journals and core authors identified  in ABI/Inform and LISA, indicating the need for multiple searches across databases. The  erratic growth patterns and inconsistent subject indexing point to database collection  inconsistencies. Overall, ABI/Inform yielded more articles relating to the field of  competitive intelligence than LISA.

Dynamical measurement of the stellar surface density of face-on galaxies

description: The DiskMass survey recently provided measurements of the vertical velocity dispersions of disk stars in a sample of nearly face-on galaxies. By setting the disk scale-heights to be equal to those of edge-on galaxies with similar scale-lengths, it was found that these disks must be sub-maximal, with surprisingly low K-band mass-to-light ratios of the order of $M_\star/L_K \simeq 0.3 M_\odot/L_\odot$. This study made use of a simple relation between the disk surface density and the measured velocity dispersion and scale height of the disk, neglecting the shape of the rotation curve and the dark matter contribution to the vertical force, which can be especially important in the case of sub-maximal disks. Here, we point out that these simplifying assumptions led to an overestimation of the stellar mass-to-light ratios. Relaxing these assumptions, we compute even lower values than previously reported for the mass-to-light ratios, with a median $M_\star/L_K \simeq 0.18 M_\odot/L_\odot$, where 14 galaxies have $M_\star/L_K < 0.11$. Invoking prolate dark matter halos made only a small difference to the derived $M_\star/L_K$, although extreme prolate halos ($q>1.5$ for the axis ratios of the potential) might help. The cross-terms in the Jeans equation are also generally negligible. These deduced K-band stellar mass-to-light ratios are even more difficult to reconcile with stellar population synthesis models than the previously reported ones.

Associative Measures and Multi-word Unit Extraction in Turkish
Creators: name: Mersinli, Umit
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Associative measures are "mathematical formulas determining the strength of association between two or more words based on their occurrences and cooccurrences in a text corpus" (Pecina, 2010, p. 138). The purpose of this paper is to test the 12 associative measures that Text-NSP (Banerjee & Pedersen, 2003) contains on a 10-million-word subcorpus of Turkish National Corpus (TNC) (Aksan et.al., 2012). A statistical comparison of those measures is out of the scope of the study, and the measures will be evaluated according to the linguistic relevance of the rankings they provide. The focus of the study is basically on optimizing the corpus data, before applying the measures and then, evaluating the rankings produced by these measures as a whole, not on the linguistic relevance of individual n-grams. The findings include intra-linguistically relevant associative measures for a comma delimited, sentence splitted, lower-cased, well-balanced, representative, 10-million-word corpus of Turkish.

Book thefts

description: Book thieves can be anyone from head librarians to high school dropouts. They steal for many reasons, including revenge, greed, desire, desperation, ignorance, and sometimes inexplicable compulsion. This paper is an attempt to explore the history of book theft, including the "sicknesses" that have become known as bibliomania and bibliokleptomania. In the introduction, there is some discussion of the supposed difference between biblioklepts and common book thieves. Nine different book thieves are discussed in detail. Twenty-eight others are discussed only briefly. Each entry seeks to answer the following questions: Who is the book thief? How did s/he get away with the crimes? How was s/he caught? Why did s/he steal? What, if any, was the punishment?

Resummation of electroweak Sudakov logarithms for real radiation

description: Using the known resummation of virtual corrections together with knowledge of the leading-log structure of real radiation in a parton shower, we derive analytic expressions for the resummed real radiation after they have been integrated over all of phase space. Performing a numerical analysis for both the 13 TeV LHC and a 100 TeV $pp$ collider, we show that resummation of the real corrections is at least as important as resummation of the virtual corrections, and that this resummation has a sizable effect for partonic center of mass energies exceeding $\sqrt{s} = {\cal O}$(few TeV). For partonic center of mass energies $\sqrt{s} \gtrsim$ 10 TeV, which can be reached at a 100 TeV collider, resummation becomes an O(1) effect and needs to be included even for rough estimates of the cross-sections.

Probing Light Dark Matter via Evaporation from the Sun
Creators: name: Kouvaris, Chris
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Dark matter particles can be captured by the sun with rates that depend on the dark matter mass and the DM-nucleon cross section. However, for masses below $\sim 3.3$ GeV, the captured dark matter particles evaporate, leading to an equilibrium where the rate of captured particles is equal to the rate of evaporating ones. Unlike dark matter particles from the halo, the evaporating dark matter particles have velocities that are not limited to values below the escape velocity of the galaxy. Despite the fact that high velocities are exponentially suppressed, I demonstrate here that current underground detectors have the possibility to probe/constrain low dark matter parameter space by (not)-observing the high energy tail of the evaporating dark matter particles from the sun. I also show that the functional form of the differential rate of counts with respect to the recoil energy in earth based detectors can identify precisely the mass and the cross section of the dark matter particle in this case.

description: This exploratory study assesses use of the group study rooms at North Carolina State University D.H. Hill Library. Two approaches were used to collect data: observations by the researcher, and surveys distributed to users of the group study rooms. The study focused on collaboration amongst students, and technology usage. It was discovered that the students using the Libraries collaborative learning spaces value flexibility and control of their learning spaces, and enjoy working with their peers. The results of this study identified the strengths and weaknesses of the current collaborative learning spaces, and provided recommendations for design of the group study rooms for the new Hunt Library, scheduled to open in 2013.

description: We have measured electron impact ionization (EII) for Fe 7+ from the ionization threshold up to 1200 eV. The measurements were performed using the TSR heavy ion storage ring. The ions were stored long enough prior to measurement to remove most metastables, resulting in a beam of 94% ground state ions. Comparing with the previously recommended atomic data, we find that the Arnaud & Raymond (1992) cross section is up to about 40\% larger than our measurement, with the largest discrepancies below about 400~eV. The cross section of Dere (2007) agrees to within 10%, which is about the magnitude of the experimental uncertainties. The remaining discrepancies between measurement and the most recent theory are likely due to shortcomings in the theoretical treatment of the excitation-autoionization contribution.
