description: We calculate accurately the number of solar neutrino events expected as a function of solar zenith angle, with and without neutrino oscillations, for detectors at the locations of Super-Kamiokande, SNO, and the Gran Sasso National Laboratory. Using different earth models to estimate geophysical uncertainties, and different solar models to estimate solar uncertainties, we evaluate distortions predicted by the MSW effect in the zenith angle distributions of solar neutrino events. The distortions are caused by oscillations and by $ν-e$ interactions in the earth that regenerate $ν_e$ from $ν_μ$ or $ν_τ$. We show that the first two moments of the zenith-angle distribution are more sensitive to the small mixing angle MSW solution than the conventionally studied day-night asymmetry. We present iso-sigma contours that illustrate the potential of Super-Kamiokande, SNO, BOREXINO, ICARUS and HERON/HELLAZ for detecting the earth regeneration effect at their actual locations (and at the equator). MSW solutions favored by the four pioneering solar neutrino experiments predict characteristic distortions for Super-Kamiokande, SNO, BOREXINO, and ICARUS that range from being unmeasurably small to $> 5σ$ (stat) after only a few years of observations.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The role of an intrinsic four-body scale in universal few-boson systems is the subject of active debate. We study these systems within the framework of effective field theory. For systems of up to six bosons we establish that no four-body scale appears at leading order (LO). However, we find that at next-to-leading (NLO) order a four-body force is needed to obtain renormalized results for binding energies. With the associated parameter fixed to the binding energy of the four-boson system, this force is shown to renormalize the five- and six-body systems as well. We present an original ansatz for the short-distance limit of the bosonic $A$-body wave function from which we conjecture that new $A$-body scales appear at N$^{A-3}$LO. As a specific example, calculations are presented for clusters of helium atoms. Our results apply more generally to other few-body systems governed by a large scattering length, such as light nuclei and halo states, the low-energy properties of which are independent of the detailed internal structure of the constituents.

description: The work investigates empirically the degree of integration and the hierarchical structure of the EU pork meat markets using tools and concepts from Graph Theory. The empirical results suggest: First, the strength of price co-movement has been closely related to the physical distance between national markets. This, has given rise to market clustering that largely corresponds to different geographical EU regions. Second, major players in the production and in the intra-EU trade tend to be more important in the process of price formation. The power structure (hierarchy), however, has not been rigid but it has been changing over time. Third, although the price linkages have becoming stronger the complexity of the system of markets has been rising.

Origin of 1I/'Oumuamua. II. An ejected exo-Oort cloud object?
Creators: name: Moro-Martín, Amaya
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: 1I/'Oumuamua is the first detected interstellar interloper. We test the hypothesis that it is representative of a background population of exo-Oort cloud objects ejected under the effect of post-main sequence mass loss and stellar encounters. We do this by comparing the cumulative number density of interstellar objects inferred from the detection of 1I/'Oumuamua to that expected from these two clearing processes. We consider the 0.08--8 M$_{\odot}$ mass range, take into account the dependencies with stellar mass, Galactocentric distance, and evolutionary state, and consider a wide range of size distributions for the ejected objects. Our conclusion is that 1I/'Oumuamua is likely not representative of this background population, even though there are large uncertainties in the masses and size distributions of the exo-Oort Clouds. We discuss whether the number density of free-floating, planetary-mass objects derived from gravitational microlensing surveys could be used as a discriminating measurement regarding 1I/'Oumuamua's origin (given their potential common origin). We conclude that this is challenged by the mass limitation of the surveys and the resulting uncertainty of the mass distribution of the free floaters. The detection of interlopers may be one of the few observational constraints of the small end of this population, with the caveat that, as we conclude here and in Moro-Mart\'ın (2018), in the case of 1I/'Oumuamua, it might not be appropriate to assume this object is representative of an isotropic background population, which makes the derivation of a number density very challenging.

description: Evolution of a system of diffusing and proliferating mortal reactants is analyzed in the presence of randomly moving catalysts. While the continuum description of the problem predicts reactant extinction as the average growth rate becomes negative, growth rate fluctuations induced by the discrete nature of the agents are shown to allow for an active phase, where reactants proliferate as their spatial configuration adapts to the fluctuations of the catalysts density. The model is explored by employing field theoretical techniques, numerical simulations and strong coupling analysis. For d<=2, the system is shown to exhibits an active phase at any growth rate, while for d>2 a kinetic phase transition is predicted. The applicability of this model as a prototype for a host of phenomena which exhibit self organization is discussed.

description: Classical 10d string backgrounds with a 4d de Sitter space-time, D-brane and orientifold sources, are commonly believed to satisfy the following: 1. There is no classical de Sitter solution with parallel sources. 2. Classical de Sitter solutions with intersecting sources are unstable. 3. Classical de Sitter solutions cannot have at the same time a large internal volume, a small string coupling, a bounded number of orientifolds and quantized fluxes. These three conjectures are of particular relevance to the swampland program, and if true, they challenge the connection of string theory to cosmology. We restrict here to a standard solution ansatz for which the problem is well-defined, and we still fail to prove analytically any of these conjectures. While developing new tools and obtaining new constraints, we identify remaining corners of parameter space where counter-examples to these conjectures could be found.

description: Studies of the copper-based superconductors demonstrate how their phase diagram becomes more complex as experimental probes improve, able to distinguish among subtly different electronic phases. One of those phases, nematicity, has become the matter of great interest also in the iron-based superconductors, where it is detected deep in the tetragonal state. Here we present the evolution of the in-plane Nernst effect anisotropy in the strain detwinned Ca(Fe1-xCox)2As2 single crystals, whose behaviour can be explained within the approach developed to describe the nematic order parameter in liquid crystals [1,2]. Furthermore, the employed method turns out to be universally applicable to data from other superconductors: Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2 [3] as well as YBa2Cu3Oy [4]. We conclude the observed broken rotational symmetry of the electronic system is a consequence of the emerging thermodynamic electronic nematic order at a temperature much higher than onset of the magnetic and structural transitions.

description: A number of low-mass millisecond pulsar (MSP) binaries in their rotation-powered state exhibit double-peaked X-ray orbital modulation centered at inferior pulsar conjunction. This state, which has been known to persist for years, has recently been interpreted as emission from a shock that enshrouds the pulsar. However, the pressure balance for such a configuration is a crucial unresolved issue. We consider two scenarios for pressure balance: a companion magnetosphere and stellar mass loss with gas dominance. It is found that the magnetospheric scenario requires several kilogauss poloidal fields for isobaric surfaces to enshroud the MSP as well as for the magnetosphere to remain stable if there is significant mass loss. For the gas-dominated scenario, it is necessary that the companion wind loses angular momentum prolifically as an advection or heating-dominated flow. Thermal bremsstrahlung cooling in the flow may be observable as a UV to soft X-ray component independent of orbital phase if the mass rate is high. We formulate the general requirements for shock stability against gravitational influences in the pulsar rotation-powered state for the gas-dominated scenario. We explore stabilizing mechanisms, principally irradiation feedback, which anticipates correlated shock emission and companion variability and predicts $ F_γ/F_{\rm X} \lesssim 14$ for the ratio of pulsar magnetospheric $γ$-ray to total shock soft-to-hard X-ray fluxes. This stability criterion implies an unbroken extension of X-ray power-law emission to hundreds of keV for some systems. We explore observational discriminants between the gas-dominated and magnetospheric scenarios, motivating contemporaneous radio through $γ$-ray monitoring of these systems.

description: We study the properties of rotating Bose-Einstein condensates in parabolic traps, with coherence length large compared to the system size. In this limit, it has been shown that unusual groundstates form which cannot be understood within a conventional many-vortex picture. Using comparisons with exact numerical results, we show that these groundstates can be well-described by a model of non-interacting ``composite fermions''. Our work emphasises the similarities between the novel states that appear in rotating Bose-Einstein condensates and incompressible fractional quantum Hall states.

description: We consider the kinetic theory of the quantum and classical Toda lattice models. A kinetic equation of Bethe-Boltzmann type is derived for the distribution function of conserved quasiparticles. Near the classical limit, we show that the kinetic theory depends smoothly on Planck's constant, and explicitly characterise the leading quantum corrections to classical behaviour. The classical kinetic theory is compared with direct numerical simulations and shows excellent agreement. Finally, we connect the Bethe-Boltzmann approach with the classical inverse scattering method, by identifying conserved quasiparticles with the spectrum of the Lax matrix.

description: Magnetic field studies relying on individual line profiles require spectropolarimetric observations of very high quality. However, such data can be obtained only for a small fraction of bright Ap and Bp magnetic stars. During the last decades observational evidence is accumulating that also other non-degenerate stars with radiative envelopes, many of them very faint and showing rather complex spectra, can harbour magnetic fields. Various observing, measuring and modeling techniques were consequently developed to enable magnetic field measurements on low quality polarimetric spectra and to take into account the spectral complexity. In this talk we discuss several limitations connected with the applications of diverse techniques.
Obtaining conclusive information from incomplete experimental quantum tomography

description: We demonstrate that incomplete quantum tomography can give conclusive information in experimental realizations. We divide the state space into a union of multiple disjoint subsets and determine conclusively which of the subsets a system, prepared in completely unknown state, belongs to. In other words we construct and solve membership problems. Our membership problems are partitions of the state space into a union of four disjoint sets formed by fixing two maximally entangled reference states and boundary values of fidelity function "radius" between the reference states and the unknown preparation. We study the necessary and sufficient conditions of the measurements which solve these membership problems conclusively. We construct and experimentally implement such informationally incomplete measurement on two-photon polarization states with combined one-qubit measurements, and solve the membership problem in example cases.

description: We have fabricated arrays of High-T$_c$ Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) with randomly distributed loop sizes as sensitive antennas for Radio-Frequency (RF) waves. These sub-wavelength size devices known as Superconducting Quantum Interference Filters (SQIFs) detect the magnetic component of the electromagnetic field. We use a scalable ion irradiation technique to pattern the circuits and engineer the Josephson junctions needed to make SQUIDs. Here we report on a 300 SQUIDs series array with loops area ranging from $6$ to $60\ μm^{2}$, folded in a meander line covering a $3.5\ mm\times 8\ mm$ substrate area, made out of a $150$-nm-thick $\mathrm{YBa}_2\mathrm{Cu}_3\mathrm{O}_7$ film. Operating at a temperature $T=66\ K$ in a un-shielded magnetic environment, under low DC bias current ($I=60\ μA$) and DC magnetic field ($B=3\ μT$), this SQIF can detect a magnetic field of a few $pT$ at a frequency of $1.125\ GHz$, which corresponds to a sensitivity of a few hundreds of $fT/\sqrt{Hz}$, and shows linear response over 7 decades in RF power. This work is a promising approach for the realization of low dissipative sub-wavelength GHz magnetometers.

If the coupling is not small, i.e., $λ_W>1$ and $m_{ν*}=m_*$, we find $m_*>3.4 m_W$.

Massive star evolution : rotation, winds, and overshooting vectors in the Mass-Luminosity plane I. A calibrated grid of rotating single star models

description: We aim to constrain massive star evolution models using the unique testbed eclipsing binary HD166734 with new grids of MESA stellar evolution models, adopting calibrated prescriptions of overshooting, mass loss, and rotation. We introduce a novel tool: the "mass-luminosity plane" or "M-L plane", as an equivalent to the traditional HR diagram, utilising it to reproduce the testbed binary HD166734 with newly calibrated MESA stellar evolution models for single stars. We can only reproduce the Galactic binary system with an enhanced amount of core overshooting (alpha = 0.5), mass loss, and rotational mixing. We can utilise the gradient in the M-L plane to constrain the amount of mass loss to 0.5 - 1.5 times the standard Vink et al. 2001 prescriptions, and we can exclude extreme reduction or multiplication factors. The extent of the vectors in the M-L plane leads us to conclude that the amount of core overshooting is larger than is normally adopted in contemporary massive star evolution models. We furthermore conclude that rotational mixing is mandatory to get the nitrogen abundance ratios between the primary and secondary components to be correct (3:1) in our testbed binary system. Our calibrated grid of models, alongside our new M-L plane approach, present the possibility of a widened main sequence due to an increased demand for core overshooting. The increased amount of core overshooting is not only needed to explain the extended main sequence, but the enhanced overshooting is also needed to explain the location of the upper-luminosity limit of the red supergiants. Finally, the increased amount of core overshooting has -- via the compactness parameter -- implications for supernova explodibility.

description: Competing time scales generate novelty. Here, we show that a coupling between the time scales imposed by instrument inertia and the formation of inter-particle frictional contacts in shear-thickening suspensions leads to highly asymmetric shear-rate oscillations. Experiments tuning the presence of oscillations by varying the two time-scales validate our model. The observed oscillations give access to a shear-jamming portion of the flow curve that is forbidden in conventional rheometry. Moreover, the oscillation frequency allows us to quantify an intrinsic relaxation time for particle contacts. The coupling of fast contact network dynamics to a slower system variable should be generic to many other areas of dense suspension flow, with instrument inertia providing a paradigmatic example.

description: We consider an Anderson impurity (A) weakly connected to a superconducting electrode (S) on one side and a superconducting or a normal metal electrode (N) on the other side. A general path integral formalism is developed and the response of SAN and SAS junctions to a constant voltage bias V is elucidated, using a combination of the Keldysh technique (to handle non-equilibrium effects) and a dynamical mean field approximation (to handle repulsive Hubbard interactions). An interesting physics is exposed at sub-gap voltages ($eV < Δ$ for SAN and $eV < 2 Δ$ for SAS). For an SAN junction, Andreev reflection is strongly affected by Coulomb interaction. For superconductors with p-wave symmetry the junction conductance exhibits a remarkable peak at $eV < Δ$, while for superconductors with s-wave symmetric pair potential the peak is shifted towards the gap edge $eV=Δ$ and strongly suppressed if the Hubbard repulsive interaction increases.Electron transport in SAS junctions is determined by an interplay between multiple Andreev reflection (MAR) and Coulomb effects. For s-wave superconductors the usual peaks in the conductance that originate from MAR are shifted by interaction to larger values of V. They are also suppressed as the Hubbard interaction strength grows. For p-wave superconductors the sub-gap current is much larger and the I-V characteristics reveal a new feature, namely, a peak in the current resulting from a mid-gap bound state in the junction.

description: The underdoped phase diagram of the iron-based superconductors exemplifies the complexity common to many correlated materials. Indeed, multiple ordered states that break different symmetries but display comparable transition temperatures are present. Here, we argue that such a complexity can be understood within a simple unifying framework. This framework, built to respect the symmetries of the non-symmorphic space group of the FeAs/Se layer, consists of primary magnetically-ordered states and their vestigial phases that intertwine spin and orbital degrees of freedom. All vestigial phases have Ising-like and zero wave-vector order parameters, described in terms of composite spin order and exotic orbital-order patterns such as spin-orbital loop-currents, staggered atomic spin-orbit coupling, and emergent Rashba- and Dresselhaus-type spin-orbit interactions. Moreover, they host unusual phenomena, such as the electro-nematic effect, by which electric fields acts as transverse fields to the nematic order parameter, and the ferro-Néel effect, by which a uniform magnetic field induces Néel order. We discuss the experimental implications of our findings to iron-based superconductors and possible extensions to other correlated compounds with similar space groups.

description: connected spin-glass models with a discontinuous transition. In the thermodynamic limit the equilibrium properties in the high temperature phase are described by the schematic Mode Coupling Theory of super-cooled liquids. We show that {\it finite-size} fully connected spin-glass models do exhibit properties typical of Lennard-Jones systems when both are near the critical glass transition, where thermodynamics is ruled by energy minima distribution. Our study opens the way to consider activated processes in real glasses through finite-size corrections (i.e. calculations beyond the saddle point approximation) in mean-field spin-glass models.

Η αφήγηση- χάρτης μας συστήνει το μητροπολιτικό Βερολίνο μέσα από δρόμους, τόπους, ιστορίες, ανθρώπους και αισθήματα. Η διαλεκτική ανάγνωση της πόλης μέσα από την περιπλάνηση και τον αφηγηματικό λόγο, φτιάχνουν τον χάρτη που δεν απεικονίζει τουριστικούς προορισμούς ή στείρες περιγραφές υλικών μερών και σχημάτων αλλά τόπους όπου ζουν, αναπνέουν άνθρωποι στις λεωφόρους, στα υπόγεια, στα άσυλα και στα πολυκαταστήματα. Μέσα από τον χάρτη των επιφυλλίδων του Ροτ η εργασία επιχειρεί να δείξει πως ακόμα και μέσα από την σύντομη λογοτεχνική αφήγηση μπορεί να περιγραφεί ένα σύνολο φαινομένων και αντιφάσεων μιας αστικής συνθήκης και το πως αυτά τα φαινόμενα μέσα από τον στοχασμό της απομύθευσης φτάνουν στον πυρήνα της αναγκαίας σκέψης για την υπέρβαση των παθογενειών των μητροπόλεων.
