description: Magnetic skyrmions have been the subject of extensive experimental studies in ferromagnetic thin films and multilayers, revealing a diversity in their size, stability and internal structure. While the orthodox skyrmion theory focuses on the Dzyaloshinskii-Moryia interaction (DMI) and neglects higher-order energy terms, it is becoming clear that the full stray field energy needs to be taken into account to understand these recent observations. Here we present a micromagnetic study based on rigorous mathematical analysis which allows to account for the full stray field energy in the thin film and low DMI regime. In this regime, the skyrmion profile is close to a Belavin-Polyakov profile, which yields analytical expressions for the equilibrium skyrmion radius and energy. The obtained formulas provide a clear identification of Dzyaloshinskii-Moryia and long-range dipolar interactions as two physical mechanisms determining skyrmion size and stability, a consideration of importance for the optimization of skyrmion characteristics for spintronic applications.

description: The main goal of software development is to produce software that fulfils users’ needs. Users’ needs are usually expressed as system requirements that are elicited during the Requirements Engineering (RE) phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). In real-world systems, it is difficult to elicit all the requirements early in development. As a result, in practice, changes to the initial requirements occur frequently. Moreover, some other factors may also trigger Requirements Changes (RCs) such as technological advancements and changes in stakeholders’ needs. RCs can also be made even after the system has been deployed. To manage RCs, systematic approaches, which usually fall under the umbrella of Requirements Change Management (RCM), are required. Efficient RCM is essential for the success of large software projects. To develop efficient RCM, challenges that might be faced during the execution of RCM processes need to be investigated and then suitable approaches must be designed to address them. The objective of this thesis was to investigate RCM challenges and to provide approaches and guidelines to address these challenges. To achieve the objectives, we carried out an evidence-based study to identify RCM challenges and then developed a suitable RCM process, proposed in the format of an ISO/IEC standard. Subsequently, we used some semi-formal modelling languages and formal languages to tackle two key RCM challenges.

description: Louisiana State University Center for Advanced Microstructures and Devices (CAMD) began a control system upgrade project in early 1997. At the time, the storage ring was controlled by a VAX/VMS system, primarily using CAMAC for I/O. The injector Linac was controlled by a separate VME/OS/9 system using custom I/O components. The storage ring control system has been replaced with a PC/Linux based system, utilizing the existing CAMAC subsystem [1]. In an effort to both migrate channels away from CAMAC, and integrate the Linac controls with the storage ring controls, a design for upgrades utilizing AutomationDirect.com PLCs was presented [2]. This paper will discuss the detailed design for the Linac PLC based control system, and discuss the status of PLC upgrades for the Vacuum system, Kicker controls, 2nd RF system, and utilities monitoring.

description: The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) telescope recently observed extended emission around the Geminga and PSR~B0656+14 pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). These observations have been used to estimate cosmic-ray (CR) diffusion coefficients near the PWNe that appear to be more than two orders of magnitude smaller than that typically derived for the interstellar medium from the measured abundances of secondary species in CRs. Two-zone diffusion models have been proposed as a solution to this discrepancy, where the slower diffusion zone (SDZ) is confined to a small region around the PWN. Such models are shown to successfully reproduce the HAWC observations of the Geminga PWN while retaining consistency with other CR data. It is found that the size of the SDZ influences the predicted positron flux and the spectral shape of the extended $γ$-ray emission at lower energies that can be observed with the {\it Fermi} Large Area Telescope ({\it Fermi} LAT). If the two observed PWNe are not unique, then it is likely that there are similar pockets of slow diffusion around many CR sources elsewhere in the Milky Way. The consequences of such picture for Galactic CR propagation is explored.

description: Shells are fine stellar structures identified by their arc-like shapes present around a galaxy and currently thought to be vestiges of galaxy interactions and/or mergers. The study of their number, geometry, stellar populations and gas content can help to derive the interaction/merger history of a galaxy. Numerical simulations have proposed a mechanism of shell formation through phase wrapping during a radial minor merger. Alternatively, there could be barely a space wrapping, when particles have not made any radial oscillation yet, but are bound by their radial expansion, or produce an edge-brightened feature. These can be distinguished, because they are expected to keep a high radial velocity. While shells are first a stellar phenomenon, HI and CO observations have revealed neutral gas associated with shells. Some of the gas, the most diffuse and dissipative, is expected to be driven quickly to the center if it is travelling on nearly radial orbits. Molecular gas, distributed in dense clumps, is less dissipative, and may be associated to shells, and determine their velocity, too difficult to obtain from stars. We present here a search for molecular gas in nine shell galaxies with the IRAM-30m telescope. Six of them are detected in their galaxy center, and in three galaxies, we clearly detect molecular gas in shells. The derived amount of molecular gas varies from 1.5 10$^8$ to 3.4 10$^9$ M$_\odot$ in the shells. For two of them (Arp 10 and NGC 3656), the shells are characteristic of an oblate system. Their velocity is nearly systemic, and we conclude that these shells are phase-wrapped. For the third one (NGCB3934) the shells appear to participate to the rotation, and follow up with higher spatial resolution is required to conclude.

description: Spin-gapless semimetals (SGSMs), which generate 100\% spin polarization, are viewed as promising semi-half-metals in spintronics with high speed and low consumption. We propose and characterize a new $\mathbb{Z_{\mathrm{2}}}$ class of topological nodal line (TNL) in SGSMs. The proposed TNLSGSMs are protected by space-time inversion symmetry or glide mirror symmetry with two-dimensional (2D) fully spin-polarized nearly flat surface states. Based on first-principles calculations and effective model analysis, a series of high-quality materials with $\textit{R}\overline{3}\textit{c}$ and $\textit{R}{3}\textit{c}$ space groups are predicted to realize such TNLSGSMs (chainlike). The 2D fully spin-polarized nearly flat surface states may provide a route to achieving equal spin pairing topological superconductivity as well as topological catalysts.

description: Part-level representations are essential for robust person re-identification. However, common errors that arise during pedestrian detection frequently result in severe misalignment problems for body parts, which degrade the quality of part representations. Accordingly, to deal with this problem, we propose a novel model named Convolutional Deformable Part Models (CDPM). CDPM works by decoupling the complex part alignment procedure into two easier steps: first, a vertical alignment step detects each body part in the vertical direction, with the help of a multi-task learning model; second, a horizontal refinement step based on attention suppresses the background information around each detected body part. Since these two steps are performed orthogonally and sequentially, the difficulty of part alignment is significantly reduced. In the testing stage, CDPM is able to accurately align flexible body parts without any need for outside information. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed CDPM for part alignment. Most impressively, CDPM achieves state-of-the-art performance on three large-scale datasets: Market-1501, DukeMTMC-ReID,and CUHK03.

description: The time behaviour of microwaves undergoing partial reflection by photonic barriers was measured in the time and in the frequency domain. It was observed that unlike the duration of partial reflection by dielectric layers, the measured reflection duration of barriers is independent of their length. The experimental results point to a nonlocal behaviour of evanescent modes at least over a distance of some ten wavelengths. Evanescent modes correspond to photonic tunnelling in quantum mechanics.

description: We study a classically scale-invariant model with an electroweak singlet scalar mediator together with a scalar dark matter multiplet of global $O(N)$ symmetry. Our most general conformally invariant scalar potential generates the electroweak symmetry breaking via the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism, and the new scalar singlet acquires its mass through radiative corrections of the SM particles and the scalar dark matter. Taking into account the collider bounds, we present the allowed region of new physics parameters satisfying the recent measurement of relic abundance. With the obtained parameter sets, we predict the elastic scattering cross section of the new scalar multiplet into target nuclei for a direct detection of the dark matter. We also perform a full analysis with arbitrary set of parameters for $N \geq 2$, and discuss the implication of the constraints from the on-going direct and indirect detections of dark matter.

description: Many cities, towns and communities in Australia are heavily reliant on the mining industry; mines provide well-paid, ‘family wage’ jobs and mining companies may invest in local social and community infrastructure and civil society organisations. However, this dependence may create vulnerability in those places and the impacts of the cessation of mining activities can be devastating. How such communities can effectively transition to a post-mining economy and a post-mining future is an increasingly urgent question. This critical phenomenological project draws from research on emotional geographies, island studies and collective trauma to explore lived experiences of a post-mining transition. It takes as its case study North Stradbroke Island/Minjerribah (Queensland, Australia), home of the Quandamooka Peoples and approximately 2,000 permanent residents (Indigenous and non-Indigenous). Specifically, it investigates the transition planning process on the Island that followed the State Government’s decision to expedite the closure of the Island’s sand mining industry. It explores the roles of place, history, context, shared identities, community, civil society, informal networks and structural power in shaping transition processes
Baryon resonances and strong QCD

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Experiment (nucl-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Light-baryon resonances (with u,d, and s quarks in the SU(3) classification) fall on Regge trajectories. When their squared masses are plotted against the intrinsic orbital angular momenta {\rm L}, $Δ^*$'s with even and odd parity can be described by the same Regge trajectory. For a given {\rm L}, nucleon resonances with spin {\rm S}=3/2 are approximately degenerate in mass with $Δ$ resonances. To which total angular momentum {\rm L} and {\rm S} couple has no significant impact on the baryon mass. Nucleons with spin 1/2 are shifted in mass; the shift is - in units of squared masses - proportional to the component in the wave function which is antisymmetric in spin and flavor. Based on these observations, a new baryon mass formula is proposed which reproduces nearly all known baryon masses. It is shown that the masses are compatible with a quark-diquark picture while the richness of the experimentally known states require three particles to participate in the dynamics. This conflict is resolved by proposing that quarks polarize the QCD condensates and are surrounded by a polarization cloud shielding the color. A new interpretation of constituent quarks as colored quark clusters emerges; their interaction is responsible for the mass spectrum. Fast flavor exchange between the colored quark clusters exhausts the dynamical richness of the three-particle dynamics. The colored-quark-cluster model provides a mechanism in which the linear confinement potential can be traced to the increase of the volume in which the condensates are polarized. The quark-spin magnetic moment induces currents in the polarized condensates which absorb the quark-spin angular momentum: the proton spin is not carried by quark spins. The model provides a new picture of hybrids and glueballs.

description: (abr.) We present the analysis of the spectroscopic catalog of galaxies in the Coma cluster from Mobasher et al. This catalog comprises ~300 spectra of cluster members with magnitudes M_B=-20.5 to -14 in two areas of ~1 X 1.5 Mpc towards the center and the SW region of the cluster. In this paper the analysis is restricted to the 257 galaxies with no emission lines in their spectra. The strength of the age-sensitive indices is found to correlate with galaxy magnitude over the whole magnitude range. Similarly, the metallicity-sensitive indices anticorrelate with magnitude. By comparing the observed indices with model grids based on the Padova isochrones, we derive luminosity-weighted ages and metallicities. We present the distributions of ages and metallicities for galaxies in various magnitude bins. The mean metallicity decreases with galaxy magnitude and, at a given luminosity, appears to be generally lower for galaxies in the SW region of Coma as compared to the center of the cluster. A broad range of ages, from younger than 3 Gyr to older than 9 Gyr, is found in galaxies of any magnitude. However, systematic trends of age with luminosity are present among galaxies in the central field. In the central Mpc of Coma, a large fraction of galaxies at any luminosity (50-60% of the giants, >30 % of the dwarfs) show no evidence in their central regions of star formation occurred at redshift z<2, while the proportion of galaxies with significant star formation occurring at intermediate (0.35

description: Riverine environments present specific barriers and challenges to dispersing fish, depending on their dispersal capability. While some barriers are obvious and finite (for example a waterfall), the subtle influences of dendritic river network structure can also affect the dispersal, and therefore the genetic structure, of freshwater fish within river catchments. In addition to these natural barriers, artificial barriers like weirs and dams can have significant effects on the flow of genes between populations in rivers. In order to achieve the effective management and conservation of populations there is a need to understand dispersal and how the movement of individuals impacts populations at a variety of scales. Studies of dispersal are important for the perspective they bring to the movement and migration of individuals and the subsequent flow of genes – both temporally and geographically. It is this spread of genes that largely determines the genetic diversity of populations, which is a quality necessary for the stability and persistence of individuals and populations.

If the fragmentation of rainforest habitat alters the species composition of vertebrate seed predator assemblages, or patterns of interaction between seed predators and tree species, the subsequent patterns of tree recruitment are also likely to be affected. However, these interactions have not previously been investigated at a community-level. This thesis investigated patterns of community-level interactions between species of ground-active vertebrate seed predators and seeds from a range of common local rainforest tree species in the Big Scrub region of subtropical eastern Australia. In six sites in continuous forest and six sites in fragmented rainforest, ground-active vertebrates were surveyed using automated infra-red videos cameras and predation on seeds of 20 tree species were assessed at experimental seed stations. In addition, laboratory analysis of the physical and chemical traits of the 20 rainforest tree species were conducted.

description: This paper presents a method of sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) voice conversion using non-parallel training data. In this method, disentangled linguistic and speaker representations are extracted from acoustic features, and voice conversion is achieved by preserving the linguistic representations of source utterances while replacing the speaker representations with the target ones. Our model is built under the framework of encoder-decoder neural networks. A recognition encoder is designed to learn the disentangled linguistic representations with two strategies. First, phoneme transcriptions of training data are introduced to provide the references for leaning linguistic representations of audio signals. Second, an adversarial training strategy is employed to further wipe out speaker information from the linguistic representations. Meanwhile, speaker representations are extracted from audio signals by a speaker encoder. The model parameters are estimated by two-stage training, including a pretraining stage using a multi-speaker dataset and a fine-tuning stage using the dataset of a specific conversion pair. Since both the recognition encoder and the decoder for recovering acoustic features are seq2seq neural networks, there are no constrains of frame alignment and frame-by-frame conversion in our proposed method. Experimental results showed that our method obtained higher similarity and naturalness than the best non-parallel voice conversion method in Voice Conversion Challenge 2018. Besides, the performance of our proposed method was closed to the state-of-the-art parallel seq2seq voice conversion method.

description: Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) enables live cell, super-resolution imaging at high speeds. SIM uses sophisticated optical systems to generate pre-determined excitation light patterns, and reconstruction algorithms to enhance the resolution by up to a factor of two. The optical set-up of SIM relies on delicate free-space optics to generate the light patterns, and a high numerical aperture objective lens to project the pattern on the sample. These arrangements are prone to miss-alignment, often with high costs, and with the final resolution-enhancement being limited by the numerical aperture of the collection optics. Here, we present a photonic-chip based total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF)-SIM that greatly reduces the complexity of the optical setup needed to acquire TIRF-SIM images. This is achieved by taking out the light delivery from the microscope and transferring it to a photonic-chip. The conventional glass slide is replaced by the planar photonic chip, that both holds and illuminates the specimen. The chip is used to create a standing wave interference pattern, which illuminates the sample via evanescent fields. The phase of the interference pattern is controlled by the use of thermo-optical modulation, leaving the footprint of the light illumination path for the SIM system to around 4 by 4 cm$^2$. Furthermore, we show that by the use of the photonic-chip technology, the resolution enhancement of SIM can be increased above that of the conventional approach. In addition, by the separation of excitation and collection light paths the technology opens the possibility to use low numerical objective lenses, without sacrificing on the SIM resolution. Chip-based SIM represents a simple, stable and affordable approach, which could enable widespread penetration of the technique and might also open avenues for high throughput optical super-resolution microscopy.

description: At BESSY the standard 16 bit resolution of the corrector power supplies was insufficient for the continous orbit drift correction. A new sophisticated design of the analog/digital I/O board increases the resolution of the analog output up to 24 bits without suffering on losses in the long term stability or the dynamic range of the correctors. This is achieved by a cost-efficient boarddesign using standard 16 bit DAC devices in an range-overlapping fine/coarse architecture.

description: In this work, we demonstrate yet another approach to tackle the amodal segmentation problem. Specifically, we first introduce a new representation, namely a semantics-aware distance map (sem-dist map), to serve as our target for amodal segmentation instead of the commonly used masks and heatmaps. The sem-dist map is a kind of level-set representation, of which the different regions of an object are placed into different levels on the map according to their visibility. It is a natural extension of masks and heatmaps, where modal, amodal segmentation, as well as depth order information, are all well-described. Then we also introduce a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture, which we refer to as semantic layering network, to estimate sem-dist maps layer by layer, from the global-level to the instance-level, for all objects in an image. Extensive experiments on the COCOA and D2SA datasets have demonstrated that our framework can predict amodal segmentation, occlusion and depth order with state-of-the-art performance.

description: This study is a socio-political investigation into the relationship between sport and nation­building in Malaysia. The relationship between sport and nation-building (incorporating analyses of the 'nation; 'national identity'; and national unity) is examined through a variety of primary and secondary source materials, as well as interviews with twenty-six key stakeholder respondents, to ascertain the role sport has played in integrating Malaysia's various ethno-racial groups into a united 'Malaysian' nation - the research problem under investigation in the study. Key research questions - founded upon an extensive review of the literature - traced the meaning and importance of nation-building; the Malaysian authorities' rationale for using sport in the country's nation-building project; if there was any evidence to support their use of sport; how sport is utilised towards Malaysia's nation-building efforts; and if the Malaysian authorities utilisation of sport is consistent with the nation-building aims which have been set for sport. The study established that whilst there is some evidence from Malaysia that sport has the capacity to function as a nation-building tool, it is undermined by poor sport policy implementation and by other government policies which undermine its potential for sustained and positive impact. Watching Malaysia take on other nations would certainly appear (from a Malaysian perspective) to be conducive to the imagining of a Malaysian community; sport providing a foundation from which to move forward in the creation of a Malaysian nation.

description: The $α$-decay rates for the nuclides $^{168,170,171,172,173,174,176}$Yb and $^{148,150,152,154}$Gd have been estimated from transmission probabilities in a systematic $α$-nucleus potential and from an improved fit to $α$-decay rates in the rare-earth mass region. Whereas $α$-decay of $^{152}$Gd in natural gadolinium is a severe obstacle for the use of gadolinium as a low-energy solar-neutrino detector, we show that $α$-decay does not contribute significantly to the background in a ytterbium detector. An extremely long $α$-decay lifetime of $^{168}$Yb is obtained from calculation, which may be close to the sensitivity limit in a low-background solar neutrino detector.
