description: We study the space distribution of Abell and X-ray selected clusters of galaxies from the ROSAT Bright Source Catalog, and determine correlation functions for both cluster samples. On small scales the correlation functions depend on the cluster environment: clusters in rich superclusters have a larger correlation length and amplitude than all clusters. On large scales correlation functions depend on the distribution of superclusters. On these scales correlation functions for both X-ray and Abell clusters are oscillating with a period of ~115 h^{-1} Mpc. This property shows the presence of a dominating scale in the distribution of rich superclusters.

description: In the context of the Randall-Sundrum (RS) single-brane scenario, we discuss the bulk geometry and dynamics of a cosmological brane in terms of the local energy conservation law which exists for the bulk that allows slicing with a maximally symmetric 3-space. This conservation law enables us to define a local mass in the bulk. We show that there is a unique generalization of the dark radiation on the brane, which is given by the local mass. We find there also exists a conserved current associated with the Weyl tensor, and the corresponding local charge, which we call the Weyl charge, is given by the sum of the local mass and a certain linear combination of the components of the bulk energy-momentum tensor. This expression of the Weyl charge relates the local mass with the projected Weyl tensor, $E_{μν}$, which plays a central role in the geometrical formalism of the RS braneworld. On the brane, in particular, this gives a decomposition of the projected Weyl tensor into the local mass and the bulk energy-momentum tensor. Then, as an application of these results, we consider a null dust model for the bulk energy-momentum tensor and discuss the black hole formation in the bulk. We investigate the causal structure by identifying the locus of the apparent horizon and clarify possible brane trajectories in the bulk. We find that the brane stays always outside the black hole as long as it is expanding. We also find an upper bound on the value of the Hubble parameter in terms of the matter energy density on the brane, irrespective of the energy flux emitted from the brane.

Modeling baryonic interactions with the Clausius-type equation of state

description: The quantum statistical Clausius-based equation of state is used to describe the system of interacting nucleons. The interaction parameters $a$, $b$, and $c$ of the model are fixed by the empirically known nuclear ground state properties and nuclear incompressibility modulus. The model is generalized to describe the baryon-baryon interactions in the hadron resonance gas (HRG). The predictions of such a Clausius-HRG model are confronted with the lattice QCD data at zero and at small chemical potentials, and are also contrasted with the standard van der Waals approach. It is found that the behavior of the lattice QCD observables in a high-temperature hadron gas is sensitive to the nuclear matter properties. An improved description of the nuclear incompressibility factor correlates with an improved description of the lattice QCD data in the crossover transition region.

description: For the power-law quantum wave packet in configuration space, the variance of the position observable may be divergent. Accordingly, the information-entropic formulation of the uncertainty principle becomes more appropriate than the Heisenberg-type formulation, since it involves only the finite quantities. It is found that the total amount of entropic uncertainty converges to its lower bound in the limit of a large value of the exponent.

description: New materials aim at exploiting the great control of living organisms over molecular architectures and minerals. Optical biomimetics has been widely developed by microengineering, leading to photonic components with order resembling those found in plants and animals. These systems, however, are realized by complicated and adverse processes. Here we show how biomineralization might enable the one-step generation of components for amorphous photonics, in which light is made to travel through disordered scattering systems, and particularly of active devices such as random lasers, by using electrospun fiber templates. The amount of bio-enzymatically produced silica is related to light-scattering capacity and the resulting organosilica surfaces exhibit a transport mean free path for light as low as 3 micron, and lasing with linewidth below 0.2 nm. The resulting, complex optical material is characterized and modelled to elucidate scattered fields and lasing performance. Tightly-controlled nanofabrication of direct biological inspiration establishes a new concept for the additive manufacturing of engineered light-diffusing materials and photonic components, not addressed by existing technologies.

description: Predicting the outcome of sports events is a hard task. We quantify this difficulty with a coefficient that measures the distance between the observed final results of sports leagues and idealized perfectly balanced competitions in terms of skill. This indicates the relative presence of luck and skill. We collected and analyzed all games from 198 sports leagues comprising 1503 seasons from 84 countries of 4 different sports: basketball, soccer, volleyball and handball. We measured the competitiveness by countries and sports. We also identify in each season which teams, if removed from its league, result in a completely random tournament. Surprisingly, not many of them are needed. As another contribution of this paper, we propose a probabilistic graphical model to learn about the teams' skills and to decompose the relative weights of luck and skill in each game. We break down the skill component into factors associated with the teams' characteristics. The model also allows to estimate as 0.36 the probability that an underdog team wins in the NBA league, with a home advantage adding 0.09 to this probability. As shown in the first part of the paper, luck is substantially present even in the most competitive championships, which partially explains why sophisticated and complex feature-based models hardly beat simple models in the task of forecasting sports' outcomes.

description: It is well known that a closed universe with a minimally coupled massive scalar field always collapses to a singularity unless the initial conditions are extremely fine tuned. We show that the corrections to the equations of motion for the massive scalar field, given by loop quantum gravity in high curvature regime, always lead to a bounce independently of the initial conditions. In contrast to the previous works in loop quantum cosmology, we note that the singularity can be avoided even at the semi-classical level of effective dynamical equations with non-perturbative quantum gravity modifications, without using a discrete quantum evolution.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A meeting of the ICES Regional Ecosystem Group for the North Sea (REGNS) took place in May 2006 which continued the ambitious task of drawing together different types of data relating to pressure and state changes in the North Sea Ecosystem and to undertake an integrated assessment. The assessment has provided some valuable insights into the significance of the relationships between different pressure and state changes at different scales and the time scales over which changes take place. For example, plankton community data in relation to the physical and chemical oceanography reveals both gradients of response to the major riverine inputs of nutrients into the North Sea and sources of nutrients from the Atlantic. In addition, an assessment of all variables reveals two relatively stable states in the North Sea, one pre-1983 and the other post-1997. The intervening years are dominated by high ecosystem variability which represents a transition from one state to another and in part explains the number of studies which highlight different years for regime shifts. We conclude that defining such shifts is sensitive to the number and type of variables included in such analysis. Further evidence of a gradual regime shift in the ecosystem is presented for ICES sub-region IVb2 a region subjected to relatively high human pressure, but here this shift appears to have occurred between 1991 and 1998. The sensitivity of such analysis to changes in temporal and spatial scales is explored as is the dependency on the number and type of ecosystem variables. By better understanding the relationship between the causes of change at different scales in time and space it should be possible to set more realistic targets for the management of human pressures. The significance of this in relation to fish stock assessment data, fisheries (fish landings), sea bird species densities and habitat status is explored and presented in this paper.

description: In a recent work based on 3200 stacked H$α$ maps of galaxies at $z \sim 1$, Nelson et al.~find evidence for `coherent star formation': the stacked SFR profiles of galaxies above (below) the 'star formation main sequence' (MS) are above (below) that of galaxies on the MS at all radii. One might interpret this result as inconsistent with highly bursty star formation and evidence that galaxies evolve smoothly along the MS rather than crossing it many times. We analyze six simulated galaxies at $z\sim1$ from the Feedback in Realistic Environments (FIRE) project in a manner analogous to the observations to test whether the above interpretations are correct. The trends in stacked SFR profiles are qualitatively consistent with those observed. However, SFR profiles of individual galaxies are much more complex than the stacked profiles: the former can be flat or even peak at large radii because of the highly clustered nature of star formation in the simulations. Moreover, the SFR profiles of individual galaxies above (below) the MS are not systematically above (below) those of MS galaxies at all radii. We conclude that the time-averaged coherent star formation evident stacks of observed galaxies is consistent with highly bursty, clumpy star formation of individual galaxies and is not evidence that galaxies evolve smoothly along the MS.

description: Further property enhancement of alnico, an attractive near-term, non-rare-earth permanent magnet alloy system, primarily composed of Al, Ni, Co, and Fe, relies on improved morphology control and size refinement of its complex spinodally decomposed nanostructure that forms during heat-treatment. Using a combination of transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography techniques, this study evaluates the magnetic properties and microstructures of an isotropic 32.4Fe-38.1Co-12.9Ni-7.3Al-6.4Ti-3.0Cu (wt.$\%$) alloy in terms of processing parameters such as annealing temperature, annealing time, application of an external magnetic field, as well as low-temperature "draw" annealing. Optimal spinodal morphology and spacing is formed within a narrow temperature and time range ($\sim 840 \unicode{x2103}$ and 10 min during thermal-magnetic annealing (MA). The ideal morphology is a mosaic structure consisting of periodically arrayed $\sim 40$ nm diameter (Fe-Co)-rich rods ($α_1$ phase) embedded in an (Al-Ni)-rich ($α_2$ phase) matrix. A Cu-enriched phase with a size of $\sim$ 3-5 nm is located at the corners of two adjacent $\{110\}$ facets of the $α_1$ phase. The MA process significantly increased remanence ($B_\text{r}$) ($\sim$ 40-70 $\%$) of the alloy due to biased elongation of the $α_1$ phase along the $\langle100\rangle$ crystallographic direction, which is closest in orientation to the applied magnetic field. The optimum magnetic properties of the alloy with an intrinsic coercivity ($H_\text{cj}$) of 1845 Oe and a maximum energy product ($BH_\text{max}$) of 5.9 MGOe were attributed to the uniformity of the mosaic structure.

description: We present a comparison of Abell and APM clusters of galaxies as tracers of the large scale structure of the Universe. We investigate selection functions of both cluster catalogs. We show that the supercluster-void network can be traced with both cluster samples; the network has a well-defined period of ~120 h^{-1} Mpc. We calculate the correlation function and the power spectrum for Abell and APM cluster samples. The APM cluster sample with measured redshifts covers a small volume which contains only a few very rich superclusters that surround one void and have exceptionally large mutual separations. Due to this property the maximum of the power spectrum of APM clusters with measured velocities is shifted to larger scales than the corresponding feature in the power spectrum of Abell clusters. We conclude that the APM sample is not representative for the large-scale structure as a whole due to the small space coverage. We present a catalog of superclusters of galaxies, based on APM clusters up to a redshift z_{lim}=0.13.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.) is a highly adaptive boreal species with a broad distribution through different ecosystems in the North Atlantic. Diet, environmental factors and population dynamics vary enormously throughout this range, and behaviours are therefore extremely plastic. However, the behaviour of cod will always be constrained by physiology, be it temperature tolerance, swimming speeds or buoyancy control. Cod, like other gadoids, are physoclists, i.e. they have a closed compliant swimbladder that can be filled or emptied in order to achieve neutral buoyancy at any depth. Pressure changes caused by vertical movements lead to expansion and compression of the swimbladder as individuals ascend or descend respectively. Over time, changes in the volume of the swimbladder will occur so that individuals can maintain neutral buoyancy with the minimum effort. Here, we have used data collected by cod tagged with electronic tags and released in five different regions of the NE Atlantic to investigate the neutrally buoyant descent rates of cod that are moving from shallow residence depths to deeper ones. First, we describe the patterns of vertical movement and rates of descent in the recuperation period following tagging, when the swimbladder is re-inflating to achieve neutral buoyancy at capture depth. Using this recuperation behaviour as an indication of swimbladder inflation during extreme depth changes, we then describe similar patterns of natural behaviour during medium-term transitions from shallow to deeper depths as cod migrate between different areas. Third, we assess the significance of behaviour of this kind.

Here we study a model of correlated errors forming an Abelian subgroup (stabilizer) of the Pauli group (the group of tensor products of Pauli matrices). Unlike previous studies of DFSs, this type of errors does not involve any spatial symmetry assumptions on the system-environment interaction. We solve the problem of universal, fault-tolerant quantum computation on the associated class of DFSs.

description: Our main interest is the evolution of domain walls of the Higgs field in the early Universe. The aim of this paper is to understand how dynamics of Higgs domain walls could be influenced by yet unknown interactions from beyond the Standard Model. We assume that the Standard Model is valid up to certain, high, energy scale $Λ$ and use the framework of the effective field theory to describe physics below that scale. Performing numerical simulations with different values of the scale $Λ$ we are able to extend our previous analysis and determine its range of validity. We study domain walls interpolating between the physical electroweak vacuum and the vacuum appearing at very high field strengths. These domain walls could be formed from non-homogeneous configurations of the Higgs field produced by quantum fluctuations during inflation or thermal fluctuations during reheating. Our numerical simulations show that evolution of Higgs domain walls is rather insensitive to interactions beyond the Standard Model as long as masses of new particles are grater than $10^{12}\ \textrm{GeV}$. For lower values of $Λ$ the RG improved effective potential is strongly modified at field strengths crucial to the evolution of domain walls. For instance its minima become degenerate for $Λ$ around $10^{11}\ \textrm{GeV}$. We find that even in the case when the minima of the potential are nearly degenerate Higgs domain walls decayed shortly after their formation for generic initial conditions. On the other hand, in simulations with specifically chosen initial conditions Higgs domain walls can live longer and enter the scaling regime. We also determine the energy spectrum of gravitational waves produced by decaying domain walls of the Higgs field. For generic initial field configurations the amplitude of the signal is too small to be observed in present and planned detectors.

description: We consider a few number of identical bosons trapped in a 2D isotropic harmonic potential and also the $N$-boson system when it is feasible. The atom-atom interaction is modelled by means of a finite-range Gaussian interaction. The spectral properties of the system are scrutinized, in particular, we derive analytic expressions for the degeneracies and their breaking for the lower-energy states at small but finite interactions. We demonstrate that the degeneracy of the low-energy states is independent of the number of particles in the noninteracting limit and also for sufficiently weak interactions. In the strongly interacting regime, we show how the many-body wave function develops holes whenever two particles are at the same position in space to avoid the interaction, a mechanism reminiscent of the Tonks-Girardeau gas in 1D. The evolution of the system as the interaction is increased is studied by means of the density profiles, pair correlations and fragmentation of the ground state for $N=2$, $3$, and $4$ bosons.

description: We investigate the extent to which ``interaction-free'' measurements perturb the state of quantum systems. We show that the absence of energy exchange during the measurement is not a sufficient criterion to preserve that state, as the quantum system is subject to measurement dependent decoherence. While it is possible in general to design interaction-free measurement schemes that do preserve that state, the requirement of quantum coherence preservation rapidly leads to a very low efficiency. Our results, which have a simple interpretation in terms of ``which-way'' arguments, open up the way to novel quantum non-demolition techniques.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Presently, a number of exploited fish stocks in European waters are at historically low levels and in danger of further decline. For many of these stocks, the management advice from ICES has been the recommendation of a closure of the fishery. In light of this situation, the purpose of UNCOVER is to develop recovery strategies for EU fish stocks which are outside of safe biological limits. In order to develop these recovery strategies, the principle objectives of UNCOVER are to 1) identify changes experienced during stock decline and their consequences for the prospects of stock recovery, 2) enhance the understanding of mechanisms of fish stock recovery, 3) provide recommendations for the recovery of EU fish stocks, which are outside of safe biological limits. To fulfil these objectives, UNCOVER will utilize a multidisciplinary approach synthesising and integrating relevant information from previous and ongoing research programs to evaluate and develop strategies for the rebuilding of stocks. Findings will identify changes experienced during stock decline as well as key processes impacting upon the potential for stock recovery. The esults will be integrated into a modelling framework to evaluate and develop management strategies incorporating biological and environmental factors as well as technical and socio-economic constraints. UNCOVER will investigate the failures and successes of previous stock recovery activities and will try to define optimal strategies for recovery plans for the future. Recovery strategies developed in UNCOVER will be area- and ecosystem-specific and tuned to key species and their fisheries in the Barents Sea, North Sea, Baltic Sea and Bay of Biscay. UNCOVER is carried out with financial support from the Commission of the European Communities; it has started in March 2006 and will end in February 2010.
The change in the inclination angle of the non-eclipsing binary SS Lacertae: future eclipses

description: Eclipses in the 14.4-day period double-lined binary SS Lac were observed photographically and visually early in the 20th century, but stopped some 50 or 60 years ago. This has been explained by the presence of a distant third star in the system, which has now been detected spectroscopically with a period of 679 days. The plane of the orbit of the binary is changing relative to the line of sight in response to perturbations from this third object. A recent analysis by Milone et al. (M00) of all photometric material available for the system, including a re-measurement of original Harvard plates, has confirmed earlier reports of changes in the depth of the eclipses as a function of time, which are due to the third star. In this paper we discuss our detailed analysis of the eclipse amplitude measurements, and extract from them information on the change in the inclination angle of the binary over the last century. Our use of a much improved ephemeris for the system by Torres & Stefanik was found to be crucial, and prompted us to re-determine all the amplitudes from the historical data at our disposal, including the Harvard material used by M00. Systematically lower measurements on the branches of the minima were properly accounted for, and we made use of both a linear approximation to the time variation of the inclination angle and a more realistic model based on the theory of three-body interactions ("regression of the nodes" effect). The nodal cycle is found to be about 600 yr, within which TWO eclipse "seasons" occur, each lasting about 100 yr. The non-eclipsing status of the system is expected to continue until the beginning of the 23rd century.

description: Strong decays of $Ξ_c$ baryons with radial or orbital excitations with positive parity have been studied in a $^3P_0$ model. As candidates of these $Xi_c$, possible configurations and $J^P$ of $Ξ_c(2930)$, $Ξ_c(2980)$, $Ξ_c(3055)$, $Ξ_c(3080)$ and $Ξ_c(3123)$ have been assigned. There are $40$ kinds of configurations to describe these excited $Ξ_c$. In these assignments, $Ξ_c(2930)$ may be a $2S$-wave excited $\tildeΞ_{c1}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$ or $\tildeΞ_{c1}(\frac{3}{2}^+)$, or a $D$-wave excited $\hatΞ_{c1}^{' }(\frac{1}{2}^+)$, $\checkΞ_{c1}^{\ 0}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$, $\checkΞ_{c1}^{\ 2}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$, $\hatΞ_{c1}^{' }(\frac{3}{2}^+)$, $\checkΞ_{c1}^{\ 0}(\frac{3}{2}^+)$ or $\checkΞ_{c1}^{\ 2}(\frac{3}{2}^+)$. $Ξ_c(2980)^+$ may be a $2S$-wave excited $\tildeΞ_{c1}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$ or $\tildeΞ_{c0}^{'}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$ with $J^P={1\over 2}^+$, or a $D$-wave excited $\checkΞ_{c0}^{'0}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$ or $\checkΞ_{c1}^{\ 0}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$ with $J^P={1\over 2}^+$. $Ξ_c(3055)^+$ may be a $2S$-wave excited $\acuteΞ_{c1}^{'}(\frac{3}{2}^+)$ or $\acuteΞ_{c0}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$. It may be a $D$-wave excited $Ξ_{c1}^{' }(\frac{3}{2}^+)$, $Ξ_{c2}^{' }(\frac{5}{2}^+)$, $Ξ_{c2}^{ }(\frac{3}{2}^+)$ or $Ξ_{c2}^{ }(\frac{5}{2}^+)$. $Ξ_c(3080)^+$ is very possibly a $2S$-wave excited $\acuteΞ_{c0}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$, and seems not a $D$-wave excitation of $Ξ_c$. For the poor experimental information of $Ξ_c(3123)$, it is impossible to identify this state at present. It is found that the channel $ΛD$ vanishes in the strong decay of $P$-wave, $D$-wave and $2S$-wave excited $Ξ_c$ without $ρ$- mode excitation between the two light quarks ($n_ρ=L_ρ=0$). Some branching fraction ratios have been computed and can be employed to distinguish different configurations in forthcoming experiments.

description: The role that the auxiliary scalar field $ϕ$ played in Brans-Dicke cosmology is discussed. If a constant vacuum energy is assumed to be the origin of dark energy, then the corresponding density parameter would be a quantity varying with $ϕ$; and almost all of the fundamental components of our universe can be unified into the dynamical equation for $ϕ$. As a generalization of Brans-Dicke theory, we propose a new gravity theory with a complex scalar field $ϕ$ which is coupled to the cosmological curvature scalar. Through such a coupling, the Higgs mechanism is naturally incorporated into the evolution of the universe, and a running density of the field vacuum energy is obtained which may release the particle standard model from the rigorous cosmological constant problem in some sense. Our model predicts a running mass scale of the fundamental particles in which the gauge symmetry breaks spontaneously. The running speed of the mass scale in our case could survive all existing experiments.

description: We present several applications of quantum amplitude amplification to finding claws and collisions in ordered or unordered functions. Our algorithms generalize those of Brassard, Hoyer, and Tapp, and imply an O(N^{3/4} log N) quantum upper bound for the element distinctness problem in the comparison complexity model (contrasting with Theta(N log N) classical complexity). We also prove a lower bound of Omega(N^{1/2}) comparisons for this problem and derive bounds for a number of related problems.

description: Figure S2. The pipeline is split into two parts: The first part (Blue one) processes genome content data to obtain extant genome adjacencies. Step 1 detects genes that are included in other genes. In Step 2, gene families containing these genes are filtered out to avoid ambiguity in defining observed extant gene adjacencies. In Step 3, gene trees are inferred from the gene sequences, one gene tree per gene family (see Additional file 5: Figure S4 for more information on gene trees inference pipeline). Finally, in Step 4 genes contained in gene families for which gene trees have not been inferred are discarded from the analysis (41 gene families containing representing 1,039 genes). The second part of the pipeline (Green one) processes sequencing data to obtain scaffolding adjacencies that will be used to improve extant genome assembly with the ADseq algorithm. Step A trims reads with Trimmomatic to remove low qualities reads and remaining adapters. In Step B, trimmed reads are mapped onto their respective genome with Bowtie2 considering all multiple mappings. In Step C, pairs of contigs for which paired-end reads suggest a possible contiguity along their chromosome are linked with the scaffolding software BESST, and the resulting potential scaffolding adjacencies are scored according to the BESST model. Then, in Step 5 scaffolding gene adjacencies are determined from contigs adjacencies obtained from sequencing data processing part with genes present in gene trees. This results in scaffolds with observed scored scaffolding adjacencies that are used as input of DeCoSTAR (Step 6). See Additional file 18: Table S2 for a description per species on dataset used for DeCoSTAR. Pipeline to produce input data for ADseq on 18 Anopheles dataset. The pipeline takes as input a species tree for the 18 Anopheles species, the whole set of gene families and gene trees for these species and genomic data (contigs, scaffolds and chromosomes). The goal of the pipeline is to produce input data for the ADseq algorithm to reconstruct ancestral genome structure and evolution and to improve extant genome scaffolding. (PDF 103 kb)

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.HELCOM, the Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission, and ICES have had close co-operation since the establishment of HELCOM in 1974. ICES has acted as a technical adviser in developing data reporting forms, quality assurance and methodological manuals for environmental monitoring coordinated by HELCOM. HELCOM has a standing request to ICES for scientific advice in supporting the two joint steering groups on quality assurance on biological and chemical measurements, the first one also with participation by OSPAR. In addition to the standing request, HELCOM has made special requests to ICES dealing with various scientific aspects, such as assessing the state of commercial fish stocks, populations of harbour porpoises and seals in the Baltic Sea, habitat mapping supporting the activities of especially the HELCOM Monitoring and Assessment Group (HELCOM MONAS) and the Nature Protection and Biodiversity Group (HELCOM HABITAT). ICES is acting as the data manager to HELCOM oceanographic and biological community data. Carrying out the GEF/World Bank funded Baltic Sea Regional Project has been a major co-operation effort by HELCOM and ICES and has transferred several scientific requests by HELCOM into the core programme of ICES. The Ecosystem Approach through the Ecological Objectives and the HELCOM Baltic Sea Action Plan has focussed the approach of HELCOM on the Baltic Sea ecosystem and that requires unambiguous information on specific parameters and their scientific evaluation for assessment purposes. This underlines the co-operation between HELCOM and ICES, formalised via ICES’ observer status to HELCOM and its role as the scientific adviser to HELCOM.
