description: We couple dual pairs of N=8 superconformal mechanics with conical targets of dimension d and 8-d. The superconformal coupling generates an oscillator-type potential on each of the two target factors, with a frequency depending on the respective dual coordinates. In the case of the inhomogeneous (3,8,5) model, which entails a monopole background, it is necessary to add an extra supermultiplet of constants for half of the supersymmetry. The N=4 analog, joining an inhomogeneous (1,4,3) with a (3,4,1) multiplet, is also analyzed in detail.

description: We analyze the finite temperature behaviour of massless conformally coupled scalar fields in homogeneous lens spaces $S^3/{\mathbb Z}_p$. High and low temperature expansions are explicitly computed and the behavior of thermodynamic quantities under thermal duality is scrutinized. The analysis of the entropy of the different lens spaces in the high-temperature limit points out the appearance of a topological nonextensive entropy, besides the standard Stefan-Boltzmann extensive term. The remaining terms are exponentially suppressed by the temperature. The topological entropy appears as a subleading correction to the free energy that can be obtained from the determinant of the lens space conformal Laplacian operator. In the low-temperature limit the leading term in the free energy is the Casimir energy and there is no trace of any power correction in any lens space. In fact, the remaining corrections are always exponentially suppressed by the inverse of the temperature. The duality between the results of both expansions is further analyzed in the paper.

Yielding and microstructure in a 2D jammed material under shear deformation

description: The question of how a disordered material's microstructure translates into macroscopic mechanical response is central to understanding and designing materials like pastes, foams and metallic glasses. Here, we examine a 2D soft jammed material under cyclic shear, imaging the structure of ~50,000 particles. Below a certain strain amplitude, the structure becomes conserved at long times, while above, it continually rearranges. We identify the boundary between these regimes as a yield strain, defined without rheological measurement. Its value is consistent with a simultaneous but independent measurement of yielding by stress-controlled bulk rheometry. While there are virtually no irreversible rearrangements in the steady state below yielding, we find a largely stable population of plastic rearrangements that are reversed with each cycle. These results point to a microscopic view of mechanical properties under cyclic deformation.
Quantum nucleation of effective Minkowski spacetime in hyperbolic metamaterials based on high Tc superconductors

description: We demonstrate that high Tc superconductors exhibit hyperbolic metamaterial behavior in the far infrared and THz frequency ranges. In the THz range the hyperbolic behavior occurs only in the normal state, while no propagating modes exist in the superconducting state. Wave equation, which describes propagation of extraordinary light inside a hyperbolic metamaterial exhibits 2+1 dimensional Lorentz symmetry. The role of time in the corresponding effective 3D Minkowski spacetime is played by the spatial coordinate aligned perpendicular to the copper oxide layers. Such superconductor-based hyperbolic metamaterials exhibit a quantum phase transition at T=0, in which the effective Minkowski spacetime arise in the mixed state of the superconductor at some critical value of external magnetic field. Nucleation of Minkowski spacetime occurs via formation of quantized Abrikosov vortices, so that these vortices play the role of effective Minkowski spacetime quanta.

description: Floquet theory is a powerful tool in the analysis of many physical phenomena, and extended to spatial coordinates provides the basis for Bloch's theorem. However, in its original formulation it is limited to linear systems with periodic coefficients. Here, we extend the theory by proving a theorem for the general class of systems including linear operators commuting with the period-shift operator. The present theorem greatly expands the range of applicability of Floquet theory to a multitude of phenomena that were previously inaccessible with this type of analysis, such as dynamical systems with memory. As an important extension, we also prove Bloch's theorem for nonlocal potentials.

A Case Study of the Arbitrariness of the h-Index and the Highly-Cited-Publications Indicator

description: The arbitrariness of the h-index becomes evident, when one requires q*h instead of h citations as the threshold for the definition of the index, thus changing the size of the core of the most influential publications of a dataset. I analyze the citation records of 26 physicists in order to determine how much the prefactor q influences the ranking. Likewise, the arbitrariness of the highly-cited-publications indicator is due to the threshold value, given either as an absolute number of citations or as a percentage of highly cited papers. The analysis of the 26 citation records shows that the changes in the rankings in dependence on these thresholds are rather large and comparable with the respective changes for the h-index.

description: The area under investigation is in the southeast corner of the Pomona quadrangle, Los Angeles County, California. It lies at the extreme north of the Puente Hills. It can be reached by the new Pomona-Brea canyon highway which cuts the map area almost in two, north and south, and is two and one half miles south-west of Pomona, California. Since these hills stand right up from the surrounding alluvium, they can be seen from a distance of at least five miles from any state highway running in and by Pomona.

The area described in detail is approximately 3850 feet east-west by 5000 feet north-south.
Coupling strength of the $N^*(1535)S_{11}$ to the $K^+Λ$ channel

description: The $N^*(1535)S_{11}$ coupling strength to the $K^+Λ$ channel, $g_{N^*(1535)ΛK^+}$, is extracted from the latest and largest $K^+Λ$ photoproduction database by using an isobar model. It is found that the coupling is small. In term of the coupling ratio the best result is $R\equiv |g_{N^*(1535)ΛK^+}/g_{N^*(1535)ηp}|=0.460\pm 0.172$, much smaller than that obtained from the isobar analysis of the $J/ψ$ decays, i.e., $1.3\pm 0.3$, but consistent with the results of the unitary chiral approach of the same decay processes as well as the partial wave analysis of kaon photoproduction, i.e., $R=0.5\sim 0.7$. The different results of $R$ found here and in literature to date suggest that a more solid definition of the coupling constant, especially in the case of $N^*(1535)S_{11}$ state, is urgently required, before a fair comparison can be made.

description: With assumptions that the violation of the distance-duality (DD) relation entirely arises from non-conservation of the photon number and the absorption is frequency independent in the observed frequency range, we perform cosmological-model-independent tests for the cosmic opacity. The observational data include the largest Union2.1 SN Ia sample, which is taken for observed $D_\mathrm{L}$, and galaxy cluster samples compiled by De Filippis {\it et al.} and Bonamente {\it et al.}, which are responsible for providing observed $D_\mathrm{A}$. Two parameterizations, $τ(z)=2εz$ and $τ(z)=(1+z)^{2ε}-1$ are adopted for the optical depth associated to the cosmic absorption. We find that, an almost transparent universe is favored by Filippis {\it et al.} sample but it is only marginally accommodated by Bonomente {\it et al.} samples at 95.4% confidence level (C. L.) (even at 99.7% C. L. when the $r<100 \mathrm{kpc}$-cut spherical $β$ model is considered). Taking the possible cosmic absorption (in 68.3% C. L. range) constrained from the model-independent tests into consideration, we correct the distance modulus of SNe Ia and then use them to study their cosmological implications. The constraints on the $Λ$CDM show that a decelerating expanding universe with $Ω_Λ=0$ is only allowed at 99.7% C. L. by observations when the Bonamente {\it et al.} sample is considered. Therefore, our analysis suggests that an accelerated cosmic expansion is still needed to account for the dimming of SNe and the standard cosmological scenario remains to be supported by current observations.

description: Recent mid-infrared observations with JWST/MIRI have resulted in the first direct detections of absorption features from silicate clouds in the transmission spectra of two transiting exoplanets, WASP-17 b and WASP-107 b. In this paper, we measure the mid-infrared ($5-12$ $μ$m) dayside emission spectrum of the benchmark hot Jupiter HD 189733 b with MIRI LRS by combining data from two secondary eclipse observations. We confirm the previous detection of H$_2$O absorption at 6.5 $μ$m from Spitzer/IRS and additionally detect H$_2$S as well as an absorption feature at 8.7 $μ$m in both secondary eclipse observations. The excess absorption at 8.7 $μ$m can be explained by the presence of small ($\sim$0.01 $μ$m) grains of SiO$_2$[s] in the uppermost layers of HD 189733 b's dayside atmosphere. This is the first direct detection of silicate clouds in HD 189733 b's atmosphere, and the first detection of a distinct absorption feature from silicate clouds on the day side of any hot Jupiter. We find that models including SiO$_2$[s] are preferred by $6-7σ$ over clear models and those with other potential cloud species. The high altitude location of these silicate particles is best explained by formation in the hottest regions of HD 189733 b's dayside atmosphere near the substellar point. We additionally find that HD 189733 b's emission spectrum longward of 9 $μ$m displays residual features not well captured by our current atmospheric models. When combined with other JWST observations of HD 189733 b's transmission and emission spectrum at shorter wavelengths, these observations will provide us with the most detailed picture to date of the atmospheric composition and cloud properties of this benchmark hot Jupiter.

Variation of burning velocity of laminar flames with pressure by the burner-area method

Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology

Subjects: Aeronautics

description: Because of the disagreement in the published data on the effect of pressure on the burning velocity of laminar flames a general study was undertaken at the California Institute of Technology Jet Propulsion Laboratory to determine the variation of burning velocity with pressure by the burner-area method. This report is a portion of that study.

The mixtures utilized for this investigation were ethylene-air, isobutylene-air, propylene-oxygen-nitrogen, and propylene-air. Expressing the pressure dependence of burning velocity as p[superscript n], the value found for n is ?0.13 for ethylene-air, -0.186 for isobutylene-air, -0.153 for propylene-oxygen-nitrogen, and ?0.132 for propylene-air.  The results compare reasonably well with the experimental findings of Pardee (10), Cullen (6), and Culshaw and Garside (5). At atmospheric pressure the values of burning velocity of the mixtures studied in this report are in close agreement with several experimental investigators.

Also investigated was the effect on the burning velocity of a mixture of acetylene-oxygen with the addition of helium. The trend found is that the burning velocity of an acetylene-oxygen mixture increases with the addition of helium up to a maximum at a certain percentage of helium and then decreases as more helium is added.

description: We present a methodology for realistic compiler development in an existing formal methods framework.  Program transformations and analyses are implemented as term rewrites and inference rules, and automated proof search techniques are used to drive the compilation process.  This approach allows the programmer to implement the compiler succinctly, declaratively, and modularly.  We explain how our methodology separates trusted code, which can potentially corrupt compilation, from untrusted code, which cannot.  We present a case study in which we have used these techniques to implement a compiler for a small ML-like programming language that produces x86 assembly code as output.  We give a detailed overview of several stages of the compiler, including type inference, type checking, type erasure, CPS conversion, and closure conversion.  We also describe the process of extending the minimal core compiler to include features such as integers, Booleans, operators, tuples, and recursive functions.

New physics contributions from the two-Higgs-doublet model to this decay have also been examined.

description: Accordling to the theory of Kozai resonance, the initial mutual inclination between a small body and a massive planet in an outer circular orbit is as high as $\sim39.2^{\circ}$ for pumping the eccentricity of the inner small body. Here we show that, with the presence of a residual gas disk outside two planetary orbits, the inclination can be reduced as low as a few degrees. The presence of disk changes the nodal precession rates and directions of the planet orbits. At the place where the two planets achieve the same nodal processing rate, vertical secular resonance would occur so that mutual inclination of the two planets will be excited, which might trigger the Kozai resonance between the two planets further. However, in order to pump an inner Jupiter-like planet, the conditions required for the disk and the outer planet are relatively strict. We develop a set of evolution equations, which can fit the N-body simulation quite well but be integrated within a much shorter time. By scanning the parameter spaces using the evolution equations, we find that, a massive planet ($10M_J$) at 30AU with $6^o$ inclined to a massive disk ($50M_J$) can finally enter the Kozai resonance with an inner Jupiter around the snowline. And a $20^{\circ}$ inclination of the outer planet is required for flipping the inner one to a retrograde orbit. In multiple planet systems, the mechanism can happen between two nonadjacent planets, or inspire a chain reaction among more than two planets. This mechanism could be the source of the observed giant planets in moderate eccentric and inclined orbits, or hot-Jupiters in close-in, retrograde orbits after tidal damping.

description: Minimization of ac losses is essential for economic operation of high-temperature superconductor (HTS) ac power cables. A favorable configuration for the phase conductor of such cables has two counter-wound layers of HTS tape-shaped wires lying next to each other and helically wound around a flexible cylindrical former. However, if magnetic materials such as magnetic substrates of the tapes lie between the two layers, or if the winding pitch angles are not opposite and essentially equal in magnitude to each other, current distributes unequally between the two layers. Then, if at some point in the ac cycle the current of either of the two layers exceeds its critical current, a large ac loss arises from the transfer of flux between the two layers. A detailed review of the formalism, its application to the case of paramagnetic substrates including the calculation of this flux transfer loss is presented.

description: We introduce a Hybrid Variable Flavor Number Scheme for heavy flavors, denoted H-VFNS, which incorporates the advantages of both the traditional Variable Flavor Number Scheme (VFNS) as well as the Fixed Flavor Number Scheme (FFNS). By including an explicit $N_F$-dependence in both the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) and the strong coupling constant $α_S$, we generate coexisting sets of PDFs and $α_S$ for $N_F=\{3,4,5,6\}$ at any scale $μ$, that are related analytically by the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ matching conditions. The H-VFNS resums the heavy quark contributions and provides the freedom to choose the optimal $N_F$ for each particular data set. Thus, we can fit selected HERA data in a FFNS framework, while retaining the benefits of the VFNS to analyze LHC data at high scales. We illustrate how such a fit can be implemented for the case of both HERA and LHC data.

description: Constructing pseudorandom objects based on codes has been the focus of some recent research. These constructions were based on specific algebraic codes and were rather simple in their structure in that a random index into a codeword was picked and $m$ subsequent symbols output. In this work, we explore the question of whether it is possible to extend the scope of application of this paradigm of constructions to larger families of codes.

We show in this work that there exist such pseudorandom objects based on cyclic, linear codes that fool linear tests. When restricted to just algebraic codes, our techniques yield constructions that fool low-degree tests. Specifically, our results show that Reed-Solomon codes can be used to obtain pseudorandom objects, albeit in a weakened form. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first instance of Reed-Solomon codes being used to this effect.

In the process, we also touch upon one of the holy grails of derandomization. It should come as no surprise that pseudorandom objects that fool low-degree tests are automatically correlated to derandomizing polynomial identity testing. We look at whether our constructions are general enough to answer this important question and while we come up short in our endeavor, we believe our approach adds a new perspective to this problem and hopefully a meaningful opening to solving it.

description: We have carried out a survey of short-period pulsations among a sample of carefully chosen cool Ap stars using time-resolved observations with the UVES spectrometer at the ESO 8-m VLT telescope. Here we report the discovery of pulsations with amplitudes 50-100 m/s and periods 7-12 min in HD132205, HD148593 and HD151860. These objects are therefore established as new rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) stars. In addition, we independently confirm the presence of pulsations in HD69013, HD96237 and HD143487 and detect, for the first time, radial velocity oscillations in two previously known photometric roAp stars HD119027 and HD185256. At the same time, no pulsation variability is found for HD5823, HD178892 and HD185204. All of the newly discovered roAp stars were previously classified as non-pulsating based on the low-precision ground-based photometric surveys. This shows that such observations cannot be used to reliably distinguish between pulsating and non-pulsating stars and that all cool Ap stars may harbor p-mode pulsations of different amplitudes.

description: We report a similarity between the microscopic parameter dependance of emergent theories in physics and that of multiparameter models common in other areas of science. In both cases, predictions are possible despite large uncertainties in the microscopic parameters because these details are compressed into just a few governing parameters that are sufficient to describe relevant observables. We make this commonality explicit by examining parameter sensitivity in a hopping model of diffusion and a generalized Ising model of ferromagnetism. We trace the emergence of a smaller effective model to the development of a hierarchy of parameter importance quantified by the eigenvalues of the Fisher Information Matrix. Strikingly, the same hierarchy appears ubiquitously in models taken from diverse areas of science. We conclude that the emergence of effective continuum and universal theories in physics is due to the same parameter space hierarchy that underlies predictive modeling in other areas of science.

The effect of gunfire on the longitudinal motion of an airplane

description: The effect produced by the reaction forces and moments resulting from the fire of light and heavy calibre rapid fire guns on the path of motion of a modern military aircraft is discussed. This discussion is made on the basis of the "exact" equations of motion as developed by Bryan, Routh, and others, using the forms given in Dr. C. B. Millikan's notes on the dynamic stability of the airplane. The formal solution is made by the use of Heaviside operational calculus.

For general use there is developed a nomogram based on a series solution to the differential equations of motion. The application of this nomogram is illustrated and it is shown to give an easy and rapid approximation to the disturbance, and a sufficiently accurate one within the time ranges required. Since the exact solution requires several hours and the use of an experienced computer on a computing machine while the nomogram permits slide rule computations and results in a solution within a few minutes, its usefulness is readily apparent. The extension of the methods used in this paper to disturbed lateral motions is briefly discussed.

description: In most anisotropic compounds such as bismuth-based layered cuprate perovskites, the supercurrent across the blocking layer is of Josephson type, and a single crystal forms a natural stack of Josephson junctions. Here, we report on the evidence of Josephson-like transport in an artificial cuprate superlattice composed of 10 LaSrCuO-LaCuO repeats, creating a superlattice of junctions, where LCO is a superconducting Mott insulator and LSCO an overdoped metal, respectively. The superlattice has been designed with a long period d = L+W = 5.28 nm, with L and W the thickness of LCO and LSCO units, respectively, and is in the underdoped regime with an average doping level < δ >= 0.11. Quantum-size effects and Rashba spin-orbit coupling are controlled by L/d = 0.75, with a quasi-2D superconducting transition temperature of 41 K and a c-axis coherence length of about 1.5 nm. Measurements at very low temperatures show evidence of Josephson phase dynamics consistent with very low Josephson coupling and a phase diffusion regime, thus explaining why Josephson coupling in LSCO superlattices has been so elusive. The tuning of LSCO superlattices in the Josephson regime enriches the phase diagram of HTS.

description: By combining experimental techniques with ab-initio density functional theory calculations, we describe the Si/Ag(111) two-dimensional system in terms of a sp2-sp3 crystalline form of silicon characterized by a vertically distorted honeycomb lattice. We show that 2D sp2-sp3 Si NSs are qualified by a prevailing Raman peak which can be assigned to a graphene-like E2g vibrational mode and that highly distorted superstructures are semiconductive whereas low distorted ones behave as semimetals.

description: We report the experimental generation of polarization-entangled photons at telecommunication wavelengths using spontaneous four-wave mixing in silicon-on-insulator wire waveguides. The key component is a 2D coupler that transforms path entanglement into polarization entanglement at the output of the device. Using quantum state tomography we find that the produced state has fidelity 88% with a pure non-maximally entangled state. The produced state violates the CHSH Bell inequality by S=2.37\pm0.19.

description: We use data collected as part of a baseline survey in 2012 and a survey 5 months post-intervention in 2014 to assess the short-term outcomes of a water supply intervention in Ribáuè, Mozambique. This intervention included the rehabilitation and expansion of a piped water system, revitalization of water committees, and creation of and capacity building for small-scale private water enterprises. Quantitative results suggest that the intervention led to an immediate significant increase in the use of piped water supply at the expense of unprotected wells and other non-revenue generating forms of unimproved water supply with more than a 2.5-fold increase in the usage of yard taps and water kiosks/standpipes and a two-fold decrease in the use of unprotected wells. Family water consumption also increased by approximately 40 L/d, and the point-of-use treatment of water nearly tripled. Economic opportunities were generated for business and small enterprise owners due to the new water supply infrastructure, and piped water infrastructure had additional positive effects for both public and private sanitation facilities.

description: In this paper we consider gauged N=2 supergravities which arise in the low-energy limit of type II string theories and study examples which exhibit spontaneous partial supersymmetry breaking. For the quantum STU model we derive the scalar field space and the scalar potential of the N=1 supersymmetric low-energy effective action. We also study the properties of the Minkowskian N=1 supersymmetricground states for a broader class of supergravities including the quantum STU model.
