description: The spectacular images of the M87 black hole taken by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) have opened a new era of black hole research. One of the next issues is to take polarization images around the central black hole (BH). Since radio emission is produced by synchrotron process, polarization properties should vividly reflect the magnetic field structure at the jet base and thus provide good information regarding the magnetic mechanism of jet formation. With this kept in mind we perform general relativistic (GR) radiative transfer calculations of polarized light based on the GR magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation data of accretion flow and outflow in M87, to obtain their linear and circular polarization images in the horizon-scale. We found that the linear polarization components from the jet base and inner accretion flow should experience Faraday rotation when passing through magnetized plasmas around the BH, thus sensitively depending on the BH spin. Through the comparison with intensity image at 1.3mm by EHT and the polarized degree and the rotation measure (RM) at 1.3mm with the Submillimeter Array, the model with the spin parameter of a=0.9M_BH (with M_BH being the BH mass) is favored over other models with a=0.5M_BH or 0.99M_BH, though we need further systematic studies for confirmation. We also find in low-temperature models clear ring-like image in the circular polarization map, which arises because of Faraday conversion of the linearly polarized synchrotron emission and is thus indicative of magnetic field. This occurs only when the emission region is threaded with well-ordered magnetic fields and hence no clear images are expected in high-temperature disk models, in which disk emission is appreciable. We will be able to elucidate the field configuration through the comparison between the simulated polarization images and future polarimetry with EHT and other VLBI observations.

description: BPS Wilson loops in supersymmetric gauge theories have been the subjects of active research since they are often amenable to exact computation. So far most of the studies have focused on loops that do not intersect. In this paper, we derive exact results for intersecting 1/8 BPS Wilson loops in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, using a combination of supersymmetric localization and the loop equation in 2d gauge theory. The result is given by a novel matrix-model-like representation which couples multiple contour integrals and a Gaussian matrix model. We evaluate the integral at large N, and make contact with the string worldsheet description at strong coupling. As an application of our results, we compute exactly a small-angle limit (and more generally near-BPS limits) of the cross anomalous dimension which governs the UV divergence of intersecting Wilson lines. The same quantity describes the soft anomalous dimension of scattering amplitudes of W-bosons in the Coulomb branch.

description: Complex fission phenomena are studied in a unified way. Very general reflection asymmetrical equilibrium (saddle point) nuclear shapes are obtained by solving an integro-differential equation without being necessary to specify a certain parametrization. The mass asymmetry in binary cold fission of Th and U isotopes is explained as the result of adding a phenomenological shell correction to the liquid drop model deformation energy. Applications to binary, ternary, and quaternary fission are outlined.

New Solution of D=11 Supergravity on S^7 from D=4

description: A new static partially twisted solution of N=4, SO(4) gauged supergravity in D=11 is obtained in this work using Cvetiĉ et al embedding of four dimensional into eleven dimensional supergravities. In four dimensions we get two solutions: an asymptotic one corresponding to $AdS_4$ and a near horizon fixed point solution of the form $AdS_2\times H_2$. Hence, while the former solution has 32 supercharges the latter turns out to have only 4 conserved. Moreover, we managed to find an exact interpolating solution, thus connecting the above two. Aiming at a future study of $AdS/CFT$ duality for the theory at hand we derived the Penrose limit of the four dimensional solutions. Interestingly the pp-wave limit of the near horizon solution suggests itself as being of the supernumerary supersymmetric type. In D=11 we exhibit the uplift of the four dimensional solutions: one associated to $AdS_4\times S^7$ and the other to a foliation of $AdS_2\times H_2 \times S^7$, as well as their pp-wave limits.

LOCUS OF CONTROL AS A MEDIATOR IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN RELIGIOSITY/SPIRITUALITY AND POSTTRAUMATIC OUTCOMES
Creators: name: Humphreys, Kathleen Megan
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Previous literature has indicated that both religiosity and locus of control are implicated in posttraumatic outcomes, with each showing some potency as a protective factor against the subsequent development of trauma-related pathology. Internal locus of control specifically has strong implications for both religious populations and for individuals who have experienced trauma. This thesis sought to explore the potential mediational relationship found within these connections per the Barron-Kenny mediational model. Religiosity and spirituality were assessed as unique constructs with potentially different relationships to or implications for locus of control. To assess these within the context of the Barron-Kenny model, a diverse sample of religious and/or spiritual individuals who have experienced trauma was obtained. However the conditions required to demonstrate the Barron-Kenny model with either were not met. Conceptual literature is reviewed, implications are discussed, and recommendations are made for future research directions.
Atomic twin-beams and violation of a motional-state Bell inequality from a phase-fluctuating quasi-condensate source

description: We investigate the dynamics of atomic twin beams produced from a phase-fluctuating source, specifically a 1D Bose gas in the quasi-condensate regime, motivated by the experiment reported in Nature Physics 7, 608 (2011). A short-time analytic model is constructed, which is a modified version of the undepleted pump approximation widely used in quantum and atom optics, except that here we take into account the initial phase fluctuations of the pump source as opposed to assuming long-range phase coherence. We use this model to make quantitative and qualitative predictions of how phase-fluctuations of the source impact the two-particle correlations of scattered atom-pairs. The model is benchmarked against detailed numerical simulations using stochastic phase-space methods, and is shown to validate the intuitive notion that the broadening of momentum-space correlation functions between atoms scattered from a quasi-condensate is driven by the broadened momentum width of the source compared to a true phase coherent condensate. Finally, we combine these theoretical tools and results to investigate the effect phase fluctuations of the twin-beam source can have on a proposed demonstration of a violation of a Bell inequality, which intrinsically relies on phase-sensitive pair correlations.

description: This thesis focuses on three fundamental aspects of biological systems; namely, entropy production, Bayesian mechanics, and the free-energy principle. The contributions are threefold: 1) We compute the entropy production for a greater class of systems than before, including almost any stationary diffusion process, such as degenerate diffusions where the driving noise does not act on all coordinates of the system. Importantly, this class of systems encompasses Markovian approximations of stochastic differential equations driven by colored noise, which is significant since biological systems at the macro- and meso-scale are generally subject to colored fluctuations. 2) We develop a Bayesian mechanics for biological and physical entities that interact with their environment in which we give sufficient and necessary conditions for the internal states of something to infer its external states, consistently with variational Bayesian inference in statistics and theoretical neuroscience. 3) We refine the constraints on Bayesian mechanics to obtain a description that is more specific to biological systems, called the free-energy principle. This says that active and internal states of biological systems unfold as minimising a quantity known as free energy. The mathematical foundation to the free-energy principle, presented here, unlocks a first principles approach to modeling and simulating behavior in neurobiology and artificial intelligence, by minimising free energy given a generative model of external and sensory states.

String theories with deformed energy momentum relations, and a possible non-tachyonic bosonic string

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We consider a prescription for introducing deformed dispersion relations in the bosonic string action. We find that in a subset of such theories it remains true that the embedding coordinates propagate linearly on the worldsheet. While both the string modes and the center of mass propagate with deformed dispersion relations, the speed of light remains energy independent. We consider the canonical quantization of these strings, and find that it is possible to choose theories so that ghost modes still decouple, as usual. However the Virasoro algebra now exhibits an energy dependent central charge. We also find that there are examples where the tachyon is eliminated from the spectrum of the free bosonic string.

Among the Prophets: Michelangelo's 'David'
Creators: name: Kamins, Joshua
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This thesis argues that Michelangelo employed the grammar of the Cathedral and Prophet program in the making of his David with particular reference to Lorenzo Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise, Donatello's Jeremiah, Nanni di Banco's Isaiah, and Assumption of the Virgin above the Porta della Mandorla. Emphasizing Christological prophecy as the lynchpin of the overall sculptural program, it likewise applies humanist and Christian exegesis in order to reposition the David into its intended religious context. Raised on top of the Duomo, the David would have embodied the ancestral bloodline--emanating from the Tree of Jesse, carried through the womb of the Virgin Mary, and culminating in the incarnation of Christ. The incarnation--prophesied by Jeremiah, Isaiah, and the Minor Prophets--fulfills the thematic program--both in form and in hermeneutics--of the sculptural ensemble gracing the cathedral and baptistery architectural complex. The tree-stump is considered crucial to the istoria of Michelangelo's David, akin to the importance of Goliath's head in previous depictions of David; here it symbolizes the genealogy of Christ as derivative of the Davidic bloodline. Moreover, the employment of masculinity studies and the philosophies of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari lends new insight into the interconnectedness between the David, the viewer, and site.

description: A nanoscale object evidenced in a non-classical state of its centre of mass will hugely extend the boundaries of quantum mechanics. To obtain a practical scheme for the same, we exploit a hitherto unexplored coupled system: an atom and a nanoparticle coupled by an optical field. We show how to control the center-of-mass of a large $\sim500$nm nanoparticle using the internal state of the atom so as to create, as well as detect, nonclassical motional states of the nanoparticle. Specifically, we consider a setup based on a silica nanoparticle coupled to a Cesium atom and discuss a protocol for preparing and verifying a Schrödinger-cat state of the nanoparticle that does no require cooling to the motional ground state. We show that the existence of the superposition can be revealed using the Earth's gravitational field using a method that is insensitive to the most common sources of decoherence and works for any initial state of the nanoparticle.

description: Aiming towards a geometric description of quantum theory, we study the coherent states-induced metric on the phase space, which provides a geometric formulation of the Heisenberg uncertainty relations (both the position-momentum and the time-energy ones). The metric also distinguishes the original uncertainty relations of Heisenberg from the ones that are obtained from non-commutativity of operators. Conversely, the uncertainty relations can be written in terms of this metric only, hence they can be formulated for any physical system, including ones with non-trivial phase space. Moreover, the metric is a key ingredient of the probability structure of continuous-time histories on phase space. This fact allows a simple new proof the impossibility of the physical manifestation of the quantum Zeno and anti-Zeno paradoxes. Finally, we construct the coherent states for a spinless relativistic particle, as a non-trivial example by which we demonstrate our results.

description: Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) facilitates the deployment of critical applications with stringent QoS requirements, latency in particular. This paper considers the problem of jointly planning the availability of computational resources at the edge, the slicing of mobile network and edge computation resources, and the routing of heterogeneous traffic types to the various slices. These aspects are intertwined and must be addressed together to provide the desired QoS to all mobile users and traffic types still keeping costs under control. We formulate our problem as a mixed-integer nonlinear program (MINLP) and we define a heuristic, named Neighbor Exploration and Sequential Fixing (NESF), to facilitate the solution of the problem. The approach allows network operators to fine tune the network operation cost and the total latency experienced by users. We evaluate the performance of the proposed model and heuristic against two natural greedy approaches. We show the impact of the variation of all the considered parameters (viz., different types of traffic, tolerable latency, network topology and bandwidth, computation and link capacity) on the defined model. Numerical results demonstrate that NESF is very effective, achieving near-optimal planning and resource allocation solutions in a very short computing time even for large-scale network scenarios.

description: We report a rigorous theory to show the origin of the unexpected periodic behavior seen in the consecutive differences between prime numbers. We also check numerically our findings to ensure that they hold for finite sequences of primes, that would eventually appear in applications. Finally, our theory allows us to link with three different but important topics: the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture, the statistical mechanics of spin systems, and the celebrated Sierpinski fractal.

Retardation Effect for Collisional Energy Loss of Hard Partons Produced in a QGP

description: We study the collisional energy loss suffered by an energetic parton travelling the distance L in a high temperature quark-gluon plasma and initially produced in the medium. We find that the medium-induced collisional loss -Delta E(L) is strongly suppressed compared to previous estimates which assumed the collisional energy loss rate -dE/dx to be constant. The large L linear asymptotic behaviour of -Delta E(L) sets in only after a quite large retardation time. The suppression of -Delta E(L) is partly due to the fact that gluon bremsstrahlung arising from the initial acceleration of the energetic parton is reduced in the medium compared to vacuum. The latter radiation spectrum is sensitive to the plasmon modes of the quark-gluon plasma and has a rich angular structure.
description: 19 pages, 4 figures. Substantial changes have been made in version 2, especially in section 3. In particular, in section 3.2 the dependence on a spurious ultraviolet cut-off has been removed. As a consequence numerical results are quantitatively modified, but the retardation effect is qualitatively unchanged. The physical origin of the largeness of the retardation time is also emphasized, and two Appendices have been added
Programmable quantum Hall bisector: towards a novel resistance standard for quantum metrology

description: We demonstrate a programmable quantum Hall circuit that implements a novel iterative voltage bisection scheme and allows obtaining any binary fraction $(k/2^n)$ of the fundamental resistance quantum $R_K/2=h/2e^2$. The circuit requires a number $n$ of bisection stages that only scales logarithmically with the precision of the fraction. The value of $k$ can be set to any integer between 1 and $2^n$ by proper gate configuration. The architecture exploits gate-controlled routing, mixing and equilibration of edge modes of robust quantum Hall states. The device does not contain {\em any} internal ohmic contact potentially leading to spurious voltage drops. Our scheme addresses key critical aspects of quantum Hall arrays of resistance standards, which are today widely studied and used to create custom calibration resistances. The approach is demonstrated in a proof-of-principle two-stage bisection circuit built on a high-mobility GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure operating at a temperature of $260\,{\rm mK}$ and a magnetic field of $4.1\,{\rm T}$.

description: It is a standard criterium in statistics to define an optimal estimator the one with the minimum variance. Thus, the optimality is proved with inequality among variances of competing estimators. The inequalities, demonstrated here, disfavor the standard least squares estimators. Inequalities among estimators are connected to names of Cramer, Rao and Frechet. The standard demonstrations of these inequalities require very special analytical properties of the probability functions, globally indicated as regular models. These limiting conditions are too restrictive to handle realistic problems in track fitting. A previous extension to heteroscedastic models of the Cramer-Rao-Frechet inequalities was performed with Gaussian distributions. These demonstrations proved beyond any possible doubts the superiority of the heteroscedastic models compared to the standard least squares method. However, the Gaussian distributions are typical members of the required regular models. Instead, the realistic probability distributions, encountered in tracker detectors, are very different from Gaussian distributions. Therefore, to have well grounded set of inequalities, the limitations to regular models must be overtaken. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the inequalities for least squares estimators for irregular models of probabilities, explicitly excluded by the Cramer-Rao-Frechet demonstrations. Estimators for straight and parabolic tracks will be considered. The final part deals with the form of the distributions of simplified heteroscedastic track models reconstructed with optimal estimators and the standard (non-optimal) estimators. A comparison among the distributions of these different estimators shows the large loss in resolution of the standard least-squares estimators.

Reading the Body: Latina Desirability and Profit in Erotic Labor
Creators: name: Khan, Cristina
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Through the analysis of an eighteen-month ethnography at a strip club in the New York tristate area, this thesis foregrounds body and embodiment as a theoretical intervention in the racialization of Latinas. This thesis unveils how Latinas manage their participation in erotic labor utilizing constructions of Latinidad - particularly embodiment cues that reflect their experiences with racialization. My findings illustrate Latinas' management of a U.S. racial binary and how Latinas are perceived by non-Latina dancers. Among the markers of negotiation in Latinas' racialization are the way music is used, clothing choices, their presentation of dancing, the management of their bodies, and their relationship with clients as forms of differentiation from other dancers; no less important is how they constantly define Latinidad for themselves - against that Black/White binary, and amongst other Latinas. This study's implications include the linking of disparate areas of research and theorizing around racialization, sexuality, embodiment, and Latinidad.

description: The absolute branching ratio of the beta-delayed gamma-ray emission of N18 was measured, providing absolute normalization of the previous work by Olness et al. [J.W. Olness et al., Nuc. Phys. A373, 13 (1982)] who measured the relative branching ratios for the individual gamma-rays. We find the total absolute branching ratio for beta-delayed gamma emission of N18 to be 76.7 +/- 7.2(stat) +/- 5.8(norm)%. A combination of other results suggests a value consistent with our result, but smaller than that calculated by Millener as quoted in Olness et al.

description: In this work we compile a few differential equations (ODEs) that arise from the relativistic equations in cosmological models that consider the ``constants'' as scalars functions dependent on time and they are described as perfect as well as viscous fluids. The general idea of the paper is to show how to solve the equations of the models through dimensional techniques (self-similarity). The results are compared with those obtained by other authors and new solutions are introduced.
