description: The main aim of this paper is to study both the Interstellar Medium (ISM) and the young stellar population in the three star-forming regions, namely IRAS 05137+3919, 05168+3634, and 19110+1045. The study of the ISM includes determination of the hydrogen column density (N(H_2)) and dust temperature (T_d) in the regions using Modified blackbody fitting. The main parameters of identified and classified young stellar objects (YSOs) belonging to the regions were determined comparing with the radiation transfer models. We also constructed a colour-magnitude diagram to compare the parameters of the YSOs with the results of the radiative transfer models. The three stellar populations appear to have formed under different scenarios. In the cases of IRAS 05137+3919 and IRAS 05168+3634, the age spread is considerably wider, suggesting that the stellar population likely emerged from independent condensations. In contrast, the third region comprises a pair of ultra-compact HII regions (UCHIIs), G45.12+0.13 and G45.07+0.13, with a notably smaller age spread. This hints at the possibility that these clusters originated from a single triggering event.

Impact of a primordial magnetic field on cosmic microwave background $B$ modes with weak lensing

description: We discuss the manner in which the primordial magnetic field (PMF) suppresses the cosmic microwave background (CMB) $B$ mode due to the weak-lensing (WL) effect. The WL effect depends on the lensing potential (LP) caused by matter perturbations, the distribution of which at cosmological scales is given by the matter power spectrum (MPS). Therefore, the WL effect on the CMB $B$ mode is affected by the MPS. Considering the effect of the ensemble average energy density of the PMF, which we call "the background PMF," on the MPS, the amplitude of MPS is suppressed in the wave number range of $k>0.01~h$ Mpc$^{-1}$.The MPS affects the LP and the WL effect in the CMB $B$ mode; however, the PMF can damp this effect. Previous studies of the CMB $B$ mode with the PMF have only considered the vector and tensor modes. These modes boost the CMB $B$ mode in the multipole range of $\ell > 1000$, whereas the background PMF damps the CMB $B$ mode owing to the WL effect in the entire multipole range. The matter density in the Universe controls the WL effect. Therefore, when we constrain the PMF and the matter density parameters from cosmological observational data sets, including the CMB $B$ mode, we expect degeneracy between these parameters. The CMB $B$ mode also provides important information on the background gravitational waves, inflation theory, matter density fluctuations, and the structure formations at the cosmological scale through the cosmological parameter search. If we study these topics and correctly constrain the cosmological parameters from cosmological observations including the CMB $B$ mode, we need to correctly consider the background PMF.

The $κ$-model under test of the SPARC database

Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Our main goal is here to make a comparative analysis between the well-known MOND theory and a more recent model called$κ$-model. An additional connection, between the $κ$-model and twoother novel MOND-type theories: Newtonian Fractional-DimensionGravity (NFDG) and Refracted Gravity (RG), is likewise presented.All these models are built to overtake the DM paradigm, or at leastto strongly reduce the dark matter content. Whereas they rely ondifferent formalisms, however, all four seem to suggest that the universal parameter, a0, appearing in MOND theory could intrinsicallybe correlated to either the sole baryonic mean mass density (RG and$κ$-model) and/or to the dimension of the object under consideration(NFDG and $κ$-model). We could then confer to the parameter a0 amore flexible status of multiscale parameter, as required to explainthe dynamics together in galaxies and in galaxy clusters. Eventually,the conformal gravity theory (CFT) also seems to have some remotelink with the $κ$-model, even though the first one is an extension ofgeneral relativity, and the second one is Newtonian in essence. The$κ$-model has been tested on a small sample of spiral galaxies and ingalaxy clusters. Now we test this model on a large sample of galaxiesissued from the SPARC database.

description: Active systems -- including sperm cells, living organisms like bacteria, fish, birds, or active soft matter systems like synthetic ''microswimmers'' -- are characterized by motility, i.e., the ability to propel using their own ''engine''. Motility is the key feature that distinguishes active systems from passive or externally driven systems. In a large ensemble, motility of individual species can vary in a wide range. Selecting active species according to their motility represents an exciting and challenging problem. We propose a new method for selecting active species based on their motility using an acoustofluidic setup where highly motile species escape from the acoustic trap. This is demonstrated in simulations and in experiments with self-propelled Janus particles and human sperm. The immediate application of this method is selecting highly motile sperm for medically assisted reproduction (MAR). Due to the tunable acoustic trap, the proposed method is more flexible than the existing passive microfluidic methods. The proposed selection method based on motility can also be applied to other active systems that require selecting highly motile species or removing immotile species.

description: The rotary motor of bacteria is a natural nano-technological marvel that enables cell locomotion by powering the rotation of semi-rigid helical flagellar filaments in fluid environments. It is well known that the motor operates essentially at constant torque in counter-clockwise direction but past work have reported a large range of values of this torque. Focusing on Escherichia coli cells that are swimming and cells that are stuck on a glass surface for which all geometrical and environmental parameters are known (Darnton et al., J. Bacteriology, 2007, 189, 1756-1764), we use two validated numerical methods to compute the value of the motor torque consistent with experiments. Specifically, we use (and compare) a numerical method based on the boundary integral representation of Stokes flow and also develop a hybrid method combining boundary element and slender body theory to model the cell body and flagellar filament, respectively. Using measured rotation speed of the motor, our computations predict a value of the motor torque in the range 440 pNnm to 829 pNnm, depending critically on the distance between the flagellar filaments and the nearby surface.

description: The $^1S_0$-pairing gap in semi-infinite nuclear matter is evaluated microscopically using the effective pairing interaction recently found explicitly in the coordinate representation starting from the separable form of the Paris NN-potential. Instead of direct iterative solution of the gap equation, a new method proposed by V.A.Khodel, V.V.Khodel and J.W.Clark was used which simplifies the procedure significantly. The gap $Δ$ obtained in our calculations exibits a strong variation in the surface region with a pronounced maximum near the surface.

description: Physically relevant gauge and gravitational theories can be seen as special members of hierarchies of more elaborate systems. The Yang-Mills (YM) system is the first member of a hierarchy of Lagrangians which we will index by $p_1$, and the Einstein-Hilbert (EH) system of general relativity is the first member of another hierarchy which we index by $p_2$. In this paper, we study the classical equations of the $p_1 = 1,2$ YM hierarchy considered in the background of special geometries (Schwarzschild, deSitter,anti-deSitter) of the $p_2=1,2,3$ EH hierarchy. Solutions are obtained in various dimensions and lead to several examples of non-self-dual YM fields. When $p_1=p_2$ self-dual solutions exist in addition. Their action is equal to the Chern-Pontryagin charge and can be compared with that of the non-self-dual solutions.

Non-crossing trees, quadrangular dissections, ternary trees, and duality preserving bijections
Creators: name: Apostolakis, Nikos
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Using the theory of Properly Embedded Graphs developed in an earlier work we define an involutory duality on the set labeled non-crossing trees that lifts the obvious duality in the set of unlabeled non-crossing trees. The set of non-crossing trees is a free ternary magma with one generator and this duality is an instance of a duality that is defined in any such magma. Any two free ternary magmas with one generator are isomorphic via a unique isomorphism that we call the structural bijection. Besides the set of non-crossing trees we also consider as free ternary magmas with one generator the set of ternary trees, the set of quadrangular dissections, and the set of flagged Perfectly Chain Decomposed Ditrees, and we give topological and/or combinatorial interpretations of the structural bijections between them. In particular the bijection from the set of quadrangular dissections to the set of non-crossing trees seems to be new. Further we give explicit formulas for the number of self-dual labeled and unlabeled non-crossing trees and the set of quadrangular dissections up to rotations and up to rotations and reflections.

description: A deSitter brane-world bounding regions of anti-deSitter space has a macroscopic entropy given by one-quarter the area of the observer horizon. A proposed variant of the AdS/CFT correspondence gives a dual description of this cosmology as conformal field theory coupled to gravity in deSitter space. In the case of two-dimensional deSitter space this provides a microscopic derivation of the entropy, including the one-quarter, as quantum entanglement of the conformal field theory across the horizon.

description: In this paper, we explore a scenario where the dark matter is a mixture of interacting and non interacting species. Assuming dark matter-photon interactions for the interacting species, we find that the suppression of the matter power spectrum in this scenario can mimic that expected in the case of massive neutrinos. Our numerical studies include present limits from Planck Cosmic Microwave Background data, which render the strength of the dark matter photon interaction unconstrained when the fraction of interacting dark matter is small. Despite the large entangling between mixed dark matter and neutrino masses, we show that future measurements from the Dark Energy Instrument (DESI) could help in establishing the dark matter and the neutrino properties simultaneously, provided that the interaction rate is very close to its current limits and the fraction of interacting dark matter is at least of $\mathcal{O}\left(10\%\right)$. However, for that region of parameter space where a small fraction of interacting DM coincides with a comparatively large interaction rate, our analysis highlights a considerable degeneracy between the mixed dark matter parameters and the neutrino mass scale.

description: NGC 1232 is a face-on spiral galaxy and a great laboratory for the study of star-formation due to its proximity. We obtained high spatial resolution Hα images of this galaxy, with adaptive optics, using the SAM instrument at the SOAR telescope, and used these images to study its H ii regions. These observations allowed us to produce the most complete H ii region catalog for it to date, with a total of 976 sources. This doubles the number of H ii regions previously found for this object. We used these data to construct the H ii luminosity function, and obtained a power-law index lower than the typical values found for Sc galaxies. This shallower slope is related to the presence of a significant number of high-luminosity H ii regions (logL>39 dex). We also constructed the size distribution function, verifying that, as for most galaxies, NGC 1232 follows an exponential law. We also used the Hα luminosity to calculate the star formation rate. An extremely interesting fact about this galaxy is that X-ray diffuse observations suggest that NGC 1232 recently suffered a collision with a dwarf galaxy. We found an absence of star formation around the region where the X-ray emission is more intense, which we interpret as a star formation quenching due to the collision. Along with that, we found an excess of star-forming regions in the northeast part of the galaxy, where the X-ray emission is less intense.

description: In this updated and expanded version of our delayed Comment we show that the np backward cross section, as presented by the Uppsala group, is seriously flawed (more than 25 sd.). The main reason is the incorrect normalization of the data. We show also that their extrapolation method, used to determine the charged piNN coupling constant, is a factor of about 10 less accurate than claimed by Ericson et al. The large extrapolation error makes the determination of the coupling constant by the Uppsala group totally uninteresting.

description: Abstract: The  lack  of  large  reference  populations  has  limited  the  accuracy  of  genomic  prediction  for  dairy  cattle  breeds with small populations. We review strategies to improve multi-breed genomic prediction. Several studies  show  that  multi-breed  reference  populations  can  increase  accuracy  for  minor  breeds.  Evidence  suggests sequence and functional genomics can get us closer to causal variants, and thus improve multi-breed prediction. However, we know little about the sharing of causal variants across breeds. We carried out a case study comparing direction of effect of variants selected from within-breed genome-wide association studies (GWAS), a meta-GWAS, or a combination of functional, evolutionary, and pleiotropic information. Variants  selected  from  a  meta-GWAS  were  most  likely  to  have  the  same  direction  of  effect  in  different  populations.  Selecting  variants  from  a  meta-GWAS  with  the  same  direction  of  effect  in  multiple  breeds  may  be  a  suitable  strategy  to  select  sequence  variants  that  increase  the  accuracy  of  multi-breed  genomic  prediction.

description: This document presents an archaeological testing plan for the Salt River Project's Kyrene Expansion located in Tempe, Arizona. Prior to the construction a new generating station, Salt River Project has requested that archaeological testing be conducted. The purpose of testing is to determine if buried cultural resources are present, and, if they are found, to evaluate them in terms of their preservation, extent, and potential to yield information that can contribute to existing knowledge of the history and prehistory of the area. A preliminary review of archaeological literature suggests that there is a high potential for cultural resources within the project area. The Kyrene Generating Station lies in or near the boundary of the Hohokam village of Los Guanacos; the presence of prehistoric artifacts eroding from berms surrounding oil tanks provides an indication that features related to this site may occur within the area. This plan provides sections on the project location and description, the natural and cultural setting, previous archaeological work, research themes, and a plan of work.

Site Evaluation / Testing

description: An archaeological testing program was undertaken for Salt River Project on two sites as part of the widening project of the Coronado Coal Haul Railroad. The project areas combined, total slightly less than one acre. Seven trenches were placed, systematically and judgementally, within the two sites. Prior to the digging of trenches, however, surface artifacts were collected from 4 x 4 m grid units, placed directly over the backhoe trenches. Surface artifact distributions were used in defining site boundaries and the lengths of the backhoe trenches. No subsurface features were identified but six features were noted. Based on the ceramic assemblage, the prehistoric occupation of the sites falls between AD 850 and 1150. Archaeological clearance can be recommended, where no subsurface remains were found. Data recovery is recommended at site to be focused on the six features defined in profile.
Anomalies & Tadpoles

description: We show that massless RR tadpoles in vacuum configurations with open and unoriented strings are always related to anomalies. RR tadpoles arising from sectors of the internal SCFT with non-vanishing Witten index are in one-to-one correspondence with conventional irreducible anomalies. The anomalous content of the remaining RR tadpoles can be disclosed by considering anomalous amplitudes with higher numbers of external legs. We then provide an explicit parametrization of the anomaly polynomial in terms of the boundary reflection coefficients, i.e. one-point functions of massless RR fields on the disk. After factorization of the reducible anomaly, we extract the relevant WZ couplings in the effective lagrangians.

On the Existence of States Saturating the Bogomol'nyi Bound in N=4 Supersymmetry

description: We give an argument showing that in N=4 supersymmetric gauge theories there exists at least one bound state saturating the Bogomol'nyi bound with electric charge $p$ and magnetic charge $q$, for each $p$ and $q$ relatively prime, and we comment on the uniqueness of such state. This result is a necessary condition for the existence of an exact S-duality in N=4 supersymmetric theories.

Object recognition using multi-view imaging
Creators: name: Wang, Yizhou
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: Single view imaging data has been used in most previous research in computer vision and image understanding and lots of techniques have been developed. Recently with the fast development and dropping cost of multiple cameras, it has become possible to have many more views to achieve image processing tasks. This thesis will consider how to use the obtained multiple images in the application of target object recognition. In this context, we present two algorithms for object recognition based on scale- invariant feature points. The first is single view object recognition method (SOR), which operates on single images and uses a chirality constraint to reduce the recognition errors that arise when only a small number of feature points are matched. The procedure is extended in the second multi-view object recognition algorithm (MOR) which operates on a multi-view image sequence and, by tracking feature points using a dynamic programming method in the plenoptic domain subject to the epipolar constraint, is able to fuse feature point matches from all the available images, resulting in more robust recognition. We evaluated these algorithms using a number of data sets of real images capturing both indoor and outdoor scenes. We demonstrate that MOR is better than SOR particularly for noisy and low resolution images, and it is also able to recognize objects that are partially occluded by combining it with some segmentation techniques.
On momentum dependence of the reaction $π^- p \to ωn$ near threshold

description: We discuss the near-threshold behavior of the $ω$ production amplitude in the reaction $π^-p \to ωn$. In contrast to the results of earlier analyses we find that the averaged squared matrix element of the production amplitude must be a decreasing function of energy in order to describe the existing experimental data.

description: This report was prepared at the request of the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) for documentation concerning the present condition of the Tempe and Western canal segments subject to impact by the proposed Price Freeway between the Superstition Freeway and Pecos Road. Both structures are part of an extensive canal system, identified today as the Salt River Project System, that conveys water for agricultural, industrial, and municipal uses throughout the Salt River Valley. The canal system is owned by the United States government, but administered and operated by the Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP). This study is one part of multidisciplinary environmental studies being conducted in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), but also is intended for use as an aspect of compliance with section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is serving as lead federal agency for the project with ADOT acting on their behalf. In recognition of the fact that the SRP canal system, which dates from the late 1800s and early 1900s, represents an extremely important aspect of historic settlement of the Valley, in 1989 six components of the system were determined eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) in consultation among the United States Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), the Arizona State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO), ADOT, SRP, and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP). Scheduling issues dictated a rather abbreviated consultation process in 1989, and while the historic importance of the SRP canal system is not in question, the integrity of individual segments has yet to be evaluated. Therefore, our assessment of those portions of the Tempe and Western canals within the current project area is presented below. We begin with an explanation of the regulatory requirements that pertain to cultural resources, followed by a consideration of consultation regarding the canal system conducted to date. Thereafter, background information about the two canal systems is briefly outlined. We then describe the present condition of the Tempe and Western canals within the project area, and compare the existing condition of the structures to their earlier configurations. In addition, we also briefly discuss the various alterations that the SRP canal system as a whole has experienced over the years. Finally, we lay out recommendations concerning the significance of the canal segments subject to impact by the proposed freeway, and comment on the potential severity of those effects. Copies of pertinent prior correspondence are included as an appendix.

description: Core collapse supernovae (CCSNe) produce fast shocks which pervade the dense circum-stellar medium (CSM) of the stellar progenitor. Cosmic rays (CRs) if accelerated at these shocks can induce the growth of electromagnetic fluctuations in the foreshock medium. In this study, using a self-similar description of the shock evolution, we calculate the growth timescales of CR-driven instabilities. We select a sample of nearby core collapse radio supernova of type II and Ib/Ic. From radio data we infer the parameters which enter in the calculation of the instability growth times. We find that extended IIb SNe shocks can trigger fast intra day instabilities, strong magnetic field amplification and CR acceleration. In particular, the non-resonant streaming instability can contribute to about 50\% of the magnetic field intensity deduced from radio data. This results in the acceleration of CRs in the range 1-10 PeV within a few days after the shock breakout. In order to produce strong magnetic field amplification and CR acceleration a fast shocks pervading a dense CSM is necessary. In that aspect IIn supernovæ~are also good candidates. But a detailed modeling of the blast wave dynamics coupled with particle acceleration is mandatory for this class of object before providing any firm conclusions. Finally, we find that the trans-relativistic object SN 2009bb even if it produces more modest magnetic field amplification can accelerate CRs up to 2-3 PeV within 20 days after the outburst.

description: Salt River Project (SRP) is currently planning the construction of an underground water storage and recovery facility in the West Salt River Groundwater Basin north of Phoenix, Arizona (Figure 1). The project site is at the confluence of the Agua Fria and New Rivers between Indian School Road and Camelback Road in Glendale Arizona (Figure 2). The current plan calls for the development of 4-6 recharge basins of approximately 100 acres in total surface area. Water depth will not exceed two feet and the maximum recharge capacity is expected to be approximately 100,000 acre-feet/year. The basins will be constructed from river material. They are designed to give way in a major flood event. An open delivery channel bringing water from SRP’s Grand Canal terminus, located approximately 1.5 miles from the project site will supply the storage/recharge facility. The channel will be excavated in the riverbed and will be approximately 10 feet wide. The south end of the runway system at the Glendale Municipal Airport (GMA) lies approximately 1 mile north of the proposed project site. Because of the proximity to GMA, it is prudent to examine the potential impacts to airport operations by the construction and operation of the water storage and recovery facility. This report examines the potential of the recharge basins creating a bird/aircraft collision hazard by attracting wild birds to the basins.
Non-Planar String Networks on Tori

description: Type II strings in D=5 contain particle-like 1/8 supersymmetric BPS states. In this note we give a string-network representation of such states by considering (periodic) non-planar $(p,q,r)$-string networks of eight dimensional type II string theory on $T^3$. We obtain the BPS mass formula of such states, in terms of charges and generating-vectors of the torus, and show its invariance under an $SL(3, Z)\times SL(3, Z)$ group of transformations. Results are then generalized to string-networks associated with the $SL(5, Z)$ $U$-duality in seven dimensions. We also discuss reinterpretation of the above $(D=5)$ mass formula in terms of BPS states in world-volume theories of $U2$-branes in D=8.
