description: We compare the performance of a convolutional neural network (CNN) trained on jet images with dense neural networks (DNNs) trained on n-subjettiness variables to study the distinguishing power of these two separate techniques applied to top quark decays. We find that they perform almost identically and are highly correlated once jet mass information is included, which suggests they are accessing the same underlying information which can be intuitively understood as being contained in 4-, 5-, 6-, and 8-body kinematic phase spaces depending on the sample. This suggests both of these methods are highly useful for heavy object tagging and provides a tentative answer to the question of what the image network is actually learning.

description: A new chiral SU(3) Lagrangian is proposed to describe the properties of kaons and antikaons in the nuclear medium, the ground state of dense matter and the kaon-nuclear interactions consistently. The saturation properties of nuclear matter are reproduced as well as the results of the Dirac-Brückner theory. Our numerical results show that the kaon effective mass might be changed only moderately in the nuclear medium due to the highly non-linear density effects. After taking into account the coupling between the omega meson and the kaon, we obtain similar results for the effective kaon and antikaon energies as calculated in the one-boson-exchange model while in our model the parameters of the kaon-nuclear interactions are constrained by the SU(3) chiral symmetry.

description: We present direct experimental evidences of Anderson localization induced by the intrinsic alloy compositional disorder of InGaN/GaN quantum wells. Our approach relies on the measurement of the luminescence spectrum under local injection of electrons from a scanning tunneling microscope tip into a near-surface single quantum well. Fluctuations in the emission line shape are observed on a few-nanometer scale. Narrow emission peaks characteristic of single localized states are resolved. Calculations in the framework of the localization landscape theory provide the effective confining potential map stemming from composition fluctuations. This theory explains well the observed nanometer scale carrier localization and the energies of these Anderson-type localized states. The energy spreading of the emission from localized states is consistent with the usually observed very broad photo- or electro-luminescence spectra of InGaN/GaN quantum well structures.

description: We present the discovery and refinement by neutron powder diffraction of a new magnetic phase in the Na1-xCaxMn7O12 quadruple perovskite phase diagram, which is the incommensurate analogue of the well-known pseudo-CE phase of the simple perovskite manganites. We demonstrate that incommensurate magnetic order arises in quadruple perovskites due to the exchange interactions between A and B sites. Furthermore, by constructing a simple mean field Heisenberg exchange model that generically describes both simple and quadruple perovskite systems, we show that this new magnetic phase unifies a picture of the interplay between charge, magnetic and orbital ordering across a wide range of compounds.

$B \to ππ$ Decay in QCD
Creators: name: Khodjamirian, Alexander
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A new method is suggested to calculate the $B\to ππ$ hadronic matrix elements from QCD light-cone sum rules. To leading order in $α_s$ and $1/m_b$, the sum rule reproduces a factorizable matrix element, in accordance with the prediction of the QCD factorization approach. Whereas the QCD factorization can only take into account the nonfactorizable corrections induced by hard-gluon exchanges, the method suggested here also allows a systematic inclusion of soft-gluon effects. In this paper, I concentrate on the latter aspect and present a calculation of the nonfactorizable soft-gluon exchange contributions to $B\to ππ$. The result, including twist 3 and 4 terms, is suppressed by one power of $1/m_b$ with respect to the factorizable amplitude. Despite its numerical smallness, the soft effect is at the same level as the $O(α_s)$ correction to the QCD factorization formula for $B\to ππ$. The method suggested here can be applied to matrix elements of different topologies and operators and to various other B-decay channels. I also comment on the earlier applications of QCD sum rules to nonleptonic decays of heavy mesons.

description: In this 1971 interview Newman describes: his childhood, during which he was an avid reader; his informal education in journalism; and his first experience working as a journalist. Newman gives an overview of his civil rights advocacy in the Midwest (including a brewery boycott), coverage of party politics, the ethnic diversity of his newspaper staff, and his efforts to fight racially-targeted police brutality. Speaking about the black press more generally, Newman discusses: how it differs from the white press; its successes and failures; how its role has changed; and the future of black papers. The interview concludes with brief discussions of the possible effects of white ownership on black papers, the role of advertising in black papers, the sensationalist reputation of the black press, and the credibility of white newspapers for black readers.

This underlying $r$-matrix structure allows to reconstruct Lax representations and to find variables of separation for a wide set of the integrable natural Hamiltonian systems. As an example, we discuss the Henon-Heiles system and a quartic system of two degrees of freedom in detail.

description: Cade begins the interview by describing her upper-middle class, Midwestern, Unitarian family. Cade cites the reactions of adults towards her Black doll as her earliest memory of racism, and points to her admiration of a friend's independent, working-class mother as an initial exposure to class difference. Cade goes on to describe her move to the suburbs of Chicago. Cade first heard of the civil rights movement during the Montgomery Bus Boycott. A ninth grader at the time, Cade discussed the boycott with her Unitarian youth group and saw the play "A Raisin in the Sun." Cade also describes her memories of the integration of Little Rock Central High. Cade describes her experiences at Carleton College and her decision to attend Spelman College in the spring of 1962. Cade remembers sitting-in at the Georgia State Legislature with Howard Zinn and attending Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) meetings while at Spelman. Cade began working full-time for Atlanta SNCC in the summer of 1963. She describes her work in Alabama and Gulfport, Mississippi in 1964. In the fall of 1964, Cade began attending graduate school at Tulane University in New Orleans. She describes life in the apartments of Professor Ed Kavinsky and a picket against racist campus businesses. In the summer of 1965, Cade participated in a voter registration and education project in New Orleans 4th Ward led by Matt Suarez. In 1966 and 1967, Cade conducted doctoral research in the black community of Canton, Mississippi. Cade describes a group of women that began to meet at that same time to discuss feminist issues, including Dottie (Dorothy) Zellner, Mary Lovelace, and Jeanette King. In the final part of the interview, Cade recalls her experience as a lesbian in San Francisco in the 1970s. Cade discusses previous exposure to the gay community, Women's Liberation meetings at Glide Memorial Church, and interracial marriages
Supreme Court Denies Hearing Veteran Disability Case

description: On Monday, November 7, the Supreme Court refused to hear a case surrounding the disability benefits of a retired Air Force Veteran. Thomas Buffington, who served in the military for over a decade, first received benefits from Veterans Affairs in 2002 for tinnitus, also known as ringing in the ear due to his military service. The VA established that the tinnitus was 10% disabling [1]. Buffington’s disability benefits stopped when he was recalled to the Air National Guard from 2003 and 2005. In 2009, he applied for the disability benefits to resume, including with retroactive pay going back to when he stopped serving in 2005. The VA provided him retroactive pay dating back to February 1, 2008, which was the current policy when a veteran applies for benefits over a year after leaving active duty [2]. Buffington claimed in court that this policy denied him three years of disability benefits. The US Court of Appeals, upheld the VA’s decision, basing their ruling on the Supreme Court case Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council [3], where the Supreme Court established the deference rule. This rule states that when the law is ambiguous or unclear, the Supreme Court leaves it up to the discretion of the federal agencies. Conservatives, including Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, have criticized the case because it greatly expands the powers of federal agencies and their discretionary powers. Justice Gorsuch, dissenting the decision to deny the case, stated that “independent judges, not politically motivated actors, resolve their rights and duties under law” [4]. In not hearing the case, the Supreme Court has denied an opportunity to revisit such a ruling, a ruling that Buffington’s lawyers argued should be overturned [5]. The denial of this case leaves Chevron in place for the foreseeable future and allows federal agencies greater latitude in operating within vague federal laws.

Calogero-Vasiliev Oscillator in Dynamically Evolving Curved Spacetime

description: In a recent work, the consequences of quantizing a real scalar field $Φ$ according to generalized ``quon'' statistics in a dynamically evolving curved spacetime (~which, prior to some initial time and subsequent to some later time, is flat~) were considered. Here a similar calculation is performed; this time we quantize $Φ$ via the Calogero-Vasiliev oscillator algebra, described by a real parameter $ν> -1/2$. It is found that both conservation ( $ν\rightarrow ν$ ) and anticonservation ( $ν\rightarrow - ν$ ) of statistics is allowed. We find that for mathematical consistency the Bogoliubov coefficients associated with the $i$'th field mode must satisfy $|α_i |^2 - | β_i |^2 = 1$ with $| β_i |^2$ taking an integer value.

A resource theory of entanglement with a unique multipartite maximally entangled state

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018

description: Entanglement theory is formulated as a quantum resource theory in which the free operations are local operations and classical communication (LOCC). This defines a partial order among bipartite pure states that makes it possible to identify a maximally entangled state, which turns out to be the most relevant state in applications. However, the situation changes drastically in the multipartite regime. Not only do there exist inequivalent forms of entanglement forbidding the existence of a unique maximally entangled state, but recent results have shown that LOCC induces a trivial ordering: almost all pure entangled multipartite states are incomparable (i.e. LOCC transformations among them are almost never possible). In order to cope with this problem we consider alternative resource theories in which we relax the class of LOCC to operations that do not create entanglement. We consider two possible theories depending on whether resources correspond to multipartite entangled or genuinely multipartite entangled (GME) states and we show that they are both non-trivial: no inequivalent forms of entanglement exist in them and they induce a meaningful partial order (i.e. every pure state is transformable to more weakly entangled pure states). Moreover, we prove that the resource theory of GME that we formulate here has a unique maximally entangled state, the generalized GHZ state, which can be transformed to any other state by the allowed free operations.

Reaction dynamics of cyanohydrins with hydrosulfide in water

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Chemical Physics (physics.chem-ph)

description: We studied the reaction dynamics of a proposed prebiotic reaction theoretically. The chemical process involves acetone cyanohydrin or formalcyanohydrin reacting with hydrosulfide in an aqueous environment. Rate constants and populations of reactant and product bimolecular geometric orientations for the reactions were obtained by using density functional theory for the energies, transition state theory for the rates and matrix exponentiation as well as the hybrid tau-leaping algorithm for the population dynamics. The role of including the solvent explicitly versus implicitly was also investigated. We found that adding water or hydrogen sulfide molecules explicitly lowers the activation energy barrier and leads to a more efficient reaction pathway. In particular, hydrogen sulfide was a better proton donor. Further, when adding the solvent explicitly a synchronous reaction mechanism was observed while a concerted reaction mechanism was seen when using an implicit solvent model. Finally, we studied the role of including more than one reactant and product bimolecular orientation geometry in the dynamics. Including all pathways, reactant to reactant, product to product, reactant to product and product to reactant reduced the reaction half-time by two orders of magnitude and was therefore determined to be fundamental for an accurate description of the dynamics. Overall, we found that most reactions which involve formalcyanohydrin occur more rapidly or at the same speed as reactions which involve acetone cyanohydrin at room temperature.

description: The present study reports ecofriendly synthesis of CuO nanoparticles (NPs) using an extract of Rhus punjabensis as a reducing agent. NPs structural and composition analysis are evaluated by X-rays diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared, Energy dispersive spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Transmission electron microscopy, and Thermal analysis. The NPs have pure single phase monoclinic geometry with spherical structure and high stability toward heat and with average particle size of about 36.6 and 31.27 nm calculated by XRD and SEM, respectively. NPs are tested for antibacterial, protein kinase (PK) inhibition, SRB cytotoxic, and NF-κB activities. Antibacterial activity is observed against B. subtilis and E. coli. Significant PK and SRB cytotoxic activity is observed with some NF-κB inhibition. NPs IC50 values against HL-60 and PC-3 prostate cancer cells are 1.82 ± 1.22 and 19.25 ± 1.55 μg/mL. The results encourage further studies for antibacterial and anticancer drug development of NPs using animal models.
Supreme Court Leaks Have Many Questioning Justice Alito

description: Debate is rising on whether the Dobbs draft was the first decision to be leaked from the Supreme Court. In 2014, Hobby Lobby v. Burwell was decided with a majority opinion by Samuel Alito stating that The Religious Freedom Restoration Act allows Hobby Lobby to deny health coverage for contraception to its employees [1].
Former anti-abortion activist Reverend Rob Schenck claims that he was made aware of the Hobby Lobby decision prior to the announcement and was able to help with Hobby Lobby’s PR preparations. He claims that “only a handful of advocates” were told the decision [2].
Samuel Alito is the prime person of interest for those that believe the decision was leaked. Alito was the author of the majority opinion for both Dobbs and Hobby Lobby, making suspicions rise that he was involved in both leaks.
Despite Justice Alito’s denial of the allegations, many are calling for a congressional investigation on these leaks, including Brian Fallon, executive director of Demand Justice [3]. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin and Senator Sheldon Whitehouse have received a letter from over sixty progressive groups calling for an investigation into Justice Alito after Schenck’s whistleblowing to the 2014 decision. Trust in the judicial branch has already been weakened by the leaked Dobbs draft, and this is certainly not helping the Supreme Court to earn any of that trust back.

description: In a recent paper \cite{[Good1]} Good postulated new rules of quantization, one of the major features of which is that the quantum evolution of the wave function is always given by ordinary differential equations. In this paper we analyse the proposal in some detail and discuss its viability and its relationship with the standard quantum theory. As a byproduct, a simple derivation of the `mass spectrum' for the Klein-Gordon field is presented, but it is also shown that there is a complete additional spectrum of negative `masses'. Finally, two major reasons are presented against the viability of this alternative proposal: a) It does not lead to the correct energy spectrum for the hydrogen atom. b) For field models, the standard quantum theory cannot be recovered from this alternative description.

description: The very high anomalous precipitation (more than 500 mm) and release of water from reservoirs located in an upper catchment resulted in severe flood inundation situation in downslope regions of Kerala State in August 2018. In the present study, the satellite-based precipitation was analyzed on a daily to weekly basis during the flood duration in Kerala. The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) based precipitation pattern indicated very high rainfall (more than 60 mm day–1) in the central parts of Kerala on 14 and 15August 2018. The climate research unit (CRU) based long-term mean cumulative precipitation (1901-2017) indicated high (300-400 mm) to very high (more than 500 mm) anomalous precipitation in parts of Kerala during August 2018 leading to severe flood inundation in major parts of the state. The Sentinel-1A Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) based inundation mapping exhibited flooding of 1100.4 km2 area (5.80% of total area) during August 2018, which severely affected Alappuzha, Thrissur, and Kottayam districts. Cropland (218.69 km2), settlement (115.23 km2) and shrubland (79.46 km2) were the most affected land-use/land-cover in the region. The study warrants the restoration of ecological stability and augmentation of resilience to flooding hazard primarily in the upper catchments (the Western Ghats).
Supreme Court Leaks Have Many Questioning Justice Alito

subject: Law and legal studies

description: Debate is rising on whether the Dobbs draft was the first decision to be leaked from the Supreme Court. In 2014, Hobby Lobby v. Burwell was decided with a majority opinion by Samuel Alito stating that The Religious Freedom Restoration Act allows Hobby Lobby to deny health coverage for contraception to its employees [1]. Former anti-abortion activist Reverend Rob Schenck claims that he was made aware of the Hobby Lobby decision prior to the announcement and was able to help with Hobby Lobby’s PR preparations. He claims that “only a handful of advocates” were told the decision [2]. Samuel Alito is the prime person of interest for those that believe the decision was leaked. Alito was the author of the majority opinion for both Dobbs and Hobby Lobby, making suspicions rise that he was involved in both leaks. Despite Justice Alito’s denial of the allegations, many are calling for a congressional investigation on these leaks, including Brian Fallon, executive director of Demand Justice [3]. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin and Senator Sheldon Whitehouse have received a letter from over sixty progressive groups calling for an investigation into Justice Alito after Schenck’s whistleblowing to the 2014 decision. Trust in the judicial branch has already been weakened by the leaked Dobbs draft, and this is certainly not helping the Supreme Court to earn any of that trust back.

Tech Trouble
Creators: name: Hill, Eli
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 48
subject: Law and legal studies

description: Two cases have reached the Supreme Court that could substantially change tech companies’ liability for information published on their platforms. Gonzalez v Google LLC and Twitter, Inc. v Taamneh share similar histories. In both cases, families of the victims of terrorist attacks are seeking damages against tech companies for their role in providing a platform that terrorists used for communications. Gonzalez takes a look at the controversial §230(c) of the Communications Decency Act, while Twitter reviews the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA). According to §230(c) of the Communications Decency Act, an internet provider cannot be held liable for the speech of third parties on their platforms [1]. In oral arguments that took place on February 21, Gonzalez argued §230(c) does not provide immunity for internet providers that utilize algorithms and recommend lists, and that recommending a certain video via an algorithm should be considered speech [2]. Over 75 Amicus briefs have been filed. Most noteworthy of these is a brief filed in favor of Google by Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) and former Representative Christopher Cox (R-CA), who coauthored the law. In their brief they state that when §230(c) was written in 1996, Congress wrote the law with the intent that it would be neutral to technology changes, such as algorithms [3]. In the Twitter case, the family of a victim of the 2017 Reina Nightclub in Istanbul argue that Twitter, in failing to take down and ban ISIS related accounts, aided and abetted an act of international terrorism [4]. JASTA provides a framework for victims to claim damages against anyone who “knowingly providing substantial assistance” to acts of international terrorism [5]. The court’s conservative justices seemed to struggle with finding a definition of substantial assistance [6]. What’s Next? Undoubtedly, an overturn of §230(c) would have a tremendous fallout. However, in a world where information is controlled by algorithms, we must ask ourselves how we can responsibly regulate this technology. The answer should lie beyond the pending decision in Gonzalez. Congress instead should take initiative to change the almost thirty-year-old law. Congress could not possibly have fully comprehended the tremendous power of the technology that we have today; perhaps it is time for a new law that caters to the needs of the public in this digital age.
Investigations of Bio-responsive Peptide-inorganic Nanomaterials

description: Growth in nanotechnology has been fuelled by miniaturization of electronic systems, development of biomedical sciences and interest in nanomaterials that exhibit interesting properties. Current techniques to fabricate small devices have difficulty in accessing the size range between 10-100 nm, and conjugation of biomolecules with inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) can potentially be used to bridge this gap. Biological functions of living cells operate in the nanoscale and there is great potential in using bionanotechnology to discover new biomedical applications in diagnostics, drug delivery and cancer therapy. In this thesis, N-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc)-protected peptides are explored as tethers to self-assemble gold NPs. Assembly is characterized by transmission electron microscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, zeta potential measurements, dynamic light scattering and a new technique, Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis system (NTA). Solutions of gold NPs exhibit unique colour changes depending on their aggregation state, and the use of peptide-functionalised NPs (peptide-NPs) in a novel approach of protease sensing is developed here. Detection of the protease, Thermolysin from Bacillus thermoproteolyticus Rokko was demonstrated, and design of peptide-NPs was further optimized for detection of two medically relevant proteases, non-bindingto- alpha-chymotrypsin prostate specific antigen (nACT-PSA) and human neutrophil elastase (HNE). nACT-PSA and HNE are proteases related to prostate cancer and lung diseases respectively, and detection of PSA using the engineered peptide-NPs resulted in higher sensitivity than previously reported approaches. Surface enhanced Raman scattering was also used to monitor thermolysin action on peptide-NPs, in a novel approach which gave higher sensitivity than when using UVvisible spectroscopy for detection. The quartz crystal microbalance was also applied in complementary measurements to elucidate enzyme action on the peptides. The successful approach demonstrated here of using peptides to self-assemble gold NPs could pave new ways for the fabrication of small devices. Novel approaches of protease-sensing using peptide-NPs further illustrate potential of nanomaterials for new biomedical applications.
Zero-temperature glass transition in two dimensions

description: The nature of the glass transition is theoretically understood in the mean-field limit of infinite spatial dimensions, but the problem remains totally open in physical dimensions. Nontrivial finite-dimensional fluctuations are hard to control analytically, and experiments fail to provide conclusive evidence regarding the nature of the glass transition. Here, we use Monte Carlo simulations that fully bypass the glassy slowdown, and access equilibrium states in two-dimensional glass-forming liquids at low enough temperatures to directly probe the transition. We find that the liquid state terminates at a thermodynamic glass transition at zero temperature, which is associated with an entropy crisis and a diverging static correlation length.

Magnetic Fields and Non-Local Transport in Laser Plasmas
Creators: name: Ridgers, Christopher Paul
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: The first Vlasov-Fokker-Planck simulations of nanosecond laser-plasma interactions – including the effects of self-consistent magnetic fields and hydrodynamic plasma expansion – will be presented. The coupling between non-locality and magnetic field advection is elucidated. For the largest (initially uniform) magnetic fields externally imposed in recent long-pulse laser gas-jet plasma experiments (12T) a significant degree of cavitation of the B-field will be shown to occur (> 40%) in under 500ps. This is due to the Nernst effect and leads to the re-emergence of non-locality even if the initial value of the magnetic field strength is sufficient to localize transport. Classical transport theory may also break down in such interactions as a result of inverse bremsstrahlung heating. Although non-locality may be suppressed by a large B-field, inverse bremsstrahlung still leads to a highly distorted distribution. Indeed the best fit for a 12T applied field (after 440ps of laser heating) is found to be a super- Gaussian distribution – f0 α e−vm – with m = 3.4. The effects of such a distribution on the transport properties under the influence of magnetic fields are elucidated in the context of laser-plasmas for the first time. In long pulse laser-plasma interactions magnetic fields generated by the thermoelectric (‘∇ne × ∇Te’) mechanism are generally considered dominant. The strength of B-fields generated by this mechanism are affected, and new generation mechanisms are expected, when non-locality is important. Non-local B-field generation is found to be dominant in the interaction of an elliptical laser spot with a nitrogen gas-jet.
