description: Wilson is a Python library for matching and running Wilson coefficients of higher-dimensional operators beyond the Standard Model. Provided with the numerical values of the Wilson coefficients at a high new physics scale, it automatically performs the renormalization group evolution within the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT), matching onto the weak effective theory (WET) at the electroweak scale, and QCD/QED renormalization group evolution below the electroweak scale down to hadronic scales relevant for low-energy precision tests. The matching and running encompasses the complete set of dimension-six operators in both SMEFT and WET. The program builds on the Wilson coefficient exchange format (WCxf) and can thus be easily combined with a number of existing public codes.

description: Recently, black hole and brane production at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been widely discussed. We suggest that there is a possibility to test causality at the LHC. We argue that if the scale of quantum gravity is of the order of few TeVs, proton-proton collisions at the LHC could lead to the formation of time machines (spacetime regions with closed timelike curves) which violate causality. One model for the time machine is a traversable wormhole. We argue that the traversable wormhole production cross section at the LHC is of the same order as the cross section for the black hole production. Traversable wormholes assume violation of the null energy condition (NEC) and an exotic matter similar to the dark energy is required. Decay of the wormholes/time machines and signatures of time machine events at the LHC are discussed.

description: I discuss the correspondence between realistic four dimensional free fermionic models and $Z_2\times Z_2$ orbifold compactification. %I illustrate this correspondence for one particular example. I discuss the properties of the $Z_2\times Z_2$ orbifold that are reflected in the realistic free fermionic models. I argue that the properties of the realistic free fermionic models arise due to the underlying $Z_2\times Z_2$ orbifold compactification with nontrivial background fields. I suggest that three generation is a natural outcome of $Z_2\times Z_2$ orbifold compactification with ``standard embedding'' and at the point in compactification space that corresponds to the free fermionic formulation. I discuss how quark flavor mixing is related to the compactification.

Economic growth in Somalia case study Banadir

description: Abstract

According to Pope (1999, p. 34), the definition of corruption is the exploitation of a public position for a private objective. However, as Pope notes, this phenomenon is considerably more extensive and intricate, and it has an impact on many aspects of human existence in addition to public life. Despite extensive research on the subject, the impact of corruption on economic data is still not fully understood because of the multifaceted and complicated character of corruption.

description: The instability strip (IS) of classical Cepheids has been extensively studied theoretically. Comparison of the theoretical IS edges with those obtained empirically, using the most recent Cepheids catalogs available, can provide us with insights into the physical processes that determine the position of the IS boundaries. In this study, we investigate the empirical positions of the IS of the classical Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), considering any effect that increases its width, to obtain intrinsic edges that can be compared with theoretical models. We use data of classical fundamental-mode (F) and first-overtone (1O) LMC Cepheids from the OGLE-IV variable star catalog, together with a recent high-resolution reddening map from the literature. Our final sample includes 2058 F and 1387 1O Cepheids. We studied their position on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram and determined the IS borders by tracing the edges of the color distribution along the strip. We obtain the blue and red edges of the IS in V- and I-photometric bands, in addition to $\log T_{\rm eff}$ and $\log L$. The results obtained show a break located at the Cepheids' period of about 3 days, which was not reported before. We compare our empirical borders with theoretical ones published in the literature obtaining a good agreement for specific parameter sets. The break in the IS borders is most likely explained by the depopulation of second and third crossing classical Cepheids in the faint part of the IS, since blue loops of evolutionary tracks in this mass range do not extend blueward enough to cross the IS at the LMC metallicity. Results from the comparison of our empirical borders with theoretical ones prove that our empirical IS is a useful tool for constraining theoretical models.

description: Detailed tutorial for the Archiving Small Twitter Datasets for Text Analysis: Workshop for Beginners led by Dr Ernesto Priego on Tuesday 26 June 2018 at DH2018, Mexico City.

Fair warning: the steps here may have changed, may change or may have to be adapted on the go

Twitter data can be very valuable for researchers of perhaps all disciplines, not just DH. Given the difficulties to properly collect and analyse Twitter data as viewable from most Twitter Web and mobile clients and the very limited short-span of search results, there is the danger of losing huge amounts of valuable historical material.

In this workshop for non-coders, participants will be guided through two tasks: the first task will guide participants in creating an application to tap into Twitter’s API, in our case to get Twitter data. The second task will guide participants in the use of a Google spreadsheet to capture streaming (live) data from Twitter in order to archive it, download it and perform text analysis, data visualisations and other studies.

description: The phenomenological theory of ferroelectricity in spiral magnets presented in [M. Mostovoy, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 067601 (2006)] is generalized to describe consistently states with both uniform and modulated-in-space ferroelectric polarizations. A key point in this description is the symmetric part of the magnetoelectric coupling since, although being irrelevant for the uniform component, it plays an essential role for the non-uniform part of the polarization. We illustrate this importance in generic examples of modulated magnetic systems: longitudinal and transverse spin-density wave states and planar cycloidal phase. We show that even in the cases with no uniform ferroelectricity induced, polarization correlation functions follow to the soft magnetic behavior of the system due to the magnetoelectric effect. Our results can be easily generalized for more complicated types of magnetic ordering, and the applications may concern various natural and artificial systems in condensed matter physics (e.g., magnon properties could be extracted from dynamic dielectric response measurements).

Decomposition Methods with Deep Corrections for Reinforcement Learning

description: Decomposition methods have been proposed to approximate solutions to large sequential decision making problems. In contexts where an agent interacts with multiple entities, utility decomposition can be used to separate the global objective into local tasks considering each individual entity independently. An arbitrator is then responsible for combining the individual utilities and selecting an action in real time to solve the global problem. Although these techniques can perform well empirically, they rely on strong assumptions of independence between the local tasks and sacrifice the optimality of the global solution. This paper proposes an approach that improves upon such approximate solutions by learning a correction term represented by a neural network. We demonstrate this approach on a fisheries management problem where multiple boats must coordinate to maximize their catch over time as well as on a pedestrian avoidance problem for autonomous driving. In each problem, decomposition methods can scale to multiple boats or pedestrians by using strategies involving one entity. We verify empirically that the proposed correction method significantly improves the decomposition method and outperforms a policy trained on the full scale problem without utility decomposition.

description: This paper presents a new approach for classifying 2D histopathology patches using few-shot learning. The method is designed to tackle a significant challenge in histopathology, which is the limited availability of labeled data. By applying a sliding window technique to histopathology slides, we illustrate the practical benefits of transductive learning (i.e., making joint predictions on patches) to achieve consistent and accurate classification. Our approach involves an optimization-based strategy that actively penalizes the prediction of a large number of distinct classes within each window. We conducted experiments on histopathological data to classify tissue classes in digital slides of liver cancer, specifically hepatocellular carcinoma. The initial results show the effectiveness of our method and its potential to enhance the process of automated cancer diagnosis and treatment, all while reducing the time and effort required for expert annotation.

description: We studied the clustering properties and multiwavelength spectral energy distributions of a complete sample of 162 Ly Alpha-Emitting (LAE) galaxies at z=3.1 discovered in deep narrow-band MUSYC imaging of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South. LAEs were selected to have observed frame equivalent widths >80A and emission line fluxes >1.5E-17 erg/cm^2/s. Only 1% of our LAE sample appears to host AGN. The LAEs exhibit a moderate spatial correlation length of r_0=3.6+0.8-1.0 Mpc, corresponding to a bias factor b=1.7+0.3-0.4, which implies median dark matter halo masses of log10(M_med) = 10.9+0.5-0.9 M_sun. Comparing the number density of LAEs, (1.5+-0.3)E-3/Mpc^3, with the number density of these halos finds a mean halo occupation ~1-10%. The evolution of galaxy bias with redshift implies that most z=3.1 LAEs evolve into present-day galaxies with L<2.5L*, whereas other z>3 galaxy populations typically evolve into more massive galaxies. Halo merger trees show that z=0 descendants occupy halos with a wide range of masses, with a median descendant mass close to that of L*. Only 30% of LAEs have sufficient stellar mass (>~3E9 M_sun) to yield detections in deep Spitzer-IRAC imaging. A two-population SED fit to the stacked UBVRIzJK+[3.6,4.5,5.6,8.0]micron fluxes of the IRAC-undetected objects finds that the typical LAE has low stellar mass (1.0+0.6-0.4 E9 M_sun), moderate star formation rate (2+-1 M_sun/yr), a young component age of 20+30-10 Myr, and little dust (A_V<0.2). The best fit model has 20% of the mass in the young stellar component, but models without evolved stars are also allowed.

description: In complex dynamics, the bungee set is defined as the set points whose orbit is neither bounded nor tends to infinity. In this paper we study, for the first time, the bungee set of a quasiregular map of transcendental type. We show that this set is infinite, and shares many properties with the bungee set of a transcendental entire function. By way of contrast, we give examples of novel properties of this set in the quasiregular setting. In particular, we give an example of a quasiconformal map of the plane with a non-empty bungee set; this behaviour is impossible for an analytic homeomorphism.

In particular, we investigate the interplay between this restriction map and various types of branes contained in the moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on $M$ and $X$. We also consider the set-up where a finite group is acting on $M$ via holomorphic automorphisms or anti-holomorphic involutions, and the curve $X$ is preserved by the action. Branes are studied in this context.

How Strong is the Evidence for Electroweak Corrections Beyond the Running of $α$?

Year: 1993
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The evidence for electroweak radiative corrections not contained in $α(m_Z)$ is examined. At low energies there is very strong evidence in the analysis of the unitarity of the CKM matrix. At LEP and collider experiments the current direct signals are not strong, but there is substantial indirect evidence, which will likely become sharper when $m_t$ is determined. The advantage of using $(Δr)_{res}$ as a measure of these effects is emphasized. In order to improve the direct evidence, more accurate measurements of $m_W$ and the on--resonance asymmetries are indicated.

description: In this work, we propose a method to compute the gravitational form factor $D(Q^2)$ in holographic QCD by exploiting the remarkable correspondence between semi-classical light-front QCD and semi-classical field theories in wrapped spacetime in 5D. The use of light-front holography bridges physics at large $Q^2$ as attained in light-front QCD and physics at small $Q^2$ where the coupling to scalar and tensor fields, i.e. glueballs, are dominant. As an application, we compute the $D$-term for the pion, and compare the results with recent lattice simulations.

description: Analysis of initial observations sky surveys has shown that the resulting photometric catalogs, combined with far-red optical data, provide an extremely effective method of finding isolated, very low-temperature objects in the general field. Follow-up observations have already identified more than 25 sources with temperatures cooler than the latest M dwarfs. A comparison with detailed model predictions (Burrows & Sharp 1999) indicates that these L dwarfs have effective temperatures between 2000 ± 100 K and 1500 ± 100 K, while the available trigonometric parallax data place their luminosities at between 10-3.5 and 10. Those properties, together with the detection of lithium in one-third of the objects, are consistent with the majority having substellar masses. The mass function cannot be derived directly, since only near-infrared photometry and spectral types are available for most sources, but we can incorporate VLM/brown dwarf models in simulations of the solar neighborhood population and constrain (M) by comparing the predicted L dwarf surface densities and temperature distributions against observations from the Deep Near-Infrared Survey (DENIS) and 2 Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) surveys. The data, although sparse, can be represented by a power-law mass function, (M) M-, with 1 < < 2. Current results favor a value nearer the lower limit. If = 1.3, then the local space density of 0.075 > M/M > 0.01 brown dwarfs is 0.10 systems pc-3. In that case, brown dwarfs are twice as common as main-sequence stars but contribute no more than 15% of the total mass of the disk.

description: The dry conversion process for making UO2 nuclear fuel pellets consists of two steps: hydrolysis of UF6 to UO2F2, followed by reducing pyrohydrolysis to UO2 in a rotary kiln. The physical characteristics (morphology, particle size distribution) of the powder obtained at the kiln end determine the final properties (sinterability, flow-ability, green strength). We developed a mathematical model describing the morphological evolution of the powder in the rotary kiln, which enables us to predict morphological characteristics of UO2 powder as functions of the processing conditions. Firstly, the powder flow in the kiln was modelled, including the exchanges between a dense phase (powder bed) and an airborne phase (particles showering down). An original feature of this model is to consider the effect of lifters for calculating the dynamic variables. Secondly, the phenomena responsible for the changes in morphology and grain size were identified and modelled. A population of fractal agglomerates was considered, whose number and size change due to Brownian and sedimentation agglomeration, sintering, breaking up, and chemical reactions. The model is based on population balances and the particle size distribution is divided into sections. Results of both dynamic and morphological calculations are compared to available measurements. Lastly, the influence of the different mechanisms of morphological evolution on the final size distribution is analysed.

description: We present results of a study of the Chiral Separation Effect (CSE) in quenched finite-density QCD. Using a recently developed numerical method we calculate the conserved axial current for exactly chiral overlap fermions at finite density for the first time. We compute the anomalous transport coefficient for the CSE in the confining and de-confining phase and investigate possible deviations from the universal value. In both phases we find that non-perturbative corrections to the CSE are absent and we reproduce the universal value for the transport coefficient within small statistical errors. Our results suggest that the CSE can be used to determine the renormalisation factor of the axial current.

description: We take the paradigm of interacting spin chains, the Heisenberg spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ model, as a reference system and consider interacting models that are related to it by Jordan-Wigner transformations and restrictions to sub-chains. An example is the fermionic analogue of the gapless XXZ Hamiltonian, which, in a continuum scaling limit, is described by the massless Thirring model. We work out the Rényi-$α$ entropies of disjoint blocks in the ground state and extract the universal scaling functions describing the Rényi-$α$ tripartite information in the limit of infinite lengths. We consider also the von Neumann entropy, but only in the limit of large distance. We show how to use the entropies of spin blocks to unveil the spin structures of the underlying massless Thirring model. Finally, we speculate about the tripartite information after global quenches and conjecture its asymptotic behaviour in the limit of infinite time and small quench. The resulting conjecture for the ``residual tripartite information'', which corresponds to the limit in which the intervals' lengths are infinitely larger than their (large) distance, supports the claim of universality recently made studying noninteracting spin chains. Our mild assumptions imply that the residual tripartite information after a small quench of the anisotropy in the gapless phase of XXZ is equal to $-\log 2$.

description: INTRODUCTION: Trans young people are at a higher risk of mental health difficulties such as depression, anxiety and suicidality than their cisgender peers, due in part to their experiences of minority stress. This protocol describes a feasibility trial and subsequent pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) of a codesigned group cognitive-behavioural therapy intervention for trans young people, named Trans Adolescent Group ThErapy for Alleviating Minority stress (TAG TEAM). METHODS AND ANALYSIS: To evaluate TAG TEAM, we will conduct a feasibility trial followed by a pilot RCT with trans young people aged 14-16 years who have been referred to the Royal Children's Hospital Gender Service in Melbourne, Australia. In the feasibility trial, we aim to enrol 32 participants who will be randomised at a 1:1 ratio to either in-person or online intervention arms. Participants will be assessed at baseline and post-treatment, with a nested qualitative evaluation post-treatment. Primary outcomes are the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and the study design and associated procedures, including comparison of the in-person and online delivery modes. In the subsequent pilot RCT, we aim to enrol 64 participants who will be randomised at a 1:1 ratio to an intervention or waitlist control arm, with delivery mode determined by the feasibility trial. Participants will complete assessments at baseline, post-treatment and 3-month follow-up. Primary outcomes are the feasibility and acceptability of the RCT study design. In both the feasibility trial and pilot RCT, participants will complete assessments related to mood, anxiety, suicidality, quality of life, minority stress, family support and social transition. Quantitative data will be analysed using descriptive statistics. Qualitative data will be analysed using thematic and interpretive analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The Royal Children's Hospital Human Research Ethics Committee has approved this study (#91162). Informed consent will be obtained in writing from all participants and a legal guardian. Findings will inform the development of a full-scale RCT to evaluate the efficacy of TAG TEAM and will be disseminated through conferences and peer-reviewed journals.

Photon storage in Lambda-type optically dense atomic media. IV. Optimal control using gradient ascent

description: We use the numerical gradient ascent method from optimal control theory to extend efficient photon storage in Lambda-type media to previously inaccessible regimes and to provide simple intuitive explanations for our optimization techniques. In particular, by using gradient ascent to shape classical control pulses used to mediate photon storage, we open up the possibility of high efficiency photon storage in the non-adiabatic limit, in which analytical solutions to the equations of motion do not exist. This control shaping technique enables an order-of-magnitude increase in the bandwidth of the memory. We also demonstrate that the often discussed connection between time reversal and optimality in photon storage follows naturally from gradient ascent. Finally, we discuss the optimization of controlled reversible inhomogeneous broadening.

Prediction of beauty particle masses with the heavy quark effective theory (II)

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The effective theory for heavy quarks has additional symmetries with respect to QCD, which relate charm and beauty hadron masses. Assuming the spectrum of charmed particles, we predicted in a previous work the masses of some beauty particles. The predictions of the Lambda_b mass, M(Lambda_b)=5630 MeV, and of the B_s mass, M(B_s)=5379 MeV, are in agreement with present experimental data. We continue this work using recent experimental data on charm hadron masses. The results are: M(Sigma_b)=5822+-6 MeV, M(Sigma_b*)-M(Sigma_b)=33+-3 MeV, M(Omega_b)=6080+-7 MeV, M(Omega_b*)-M(Omega_b)=32+-3 MeV, M(Lambda_b*)=5945+-3 MeV, M(Lambda_b**)-M(Lambda_b*)=15+-1 MeV. When experimental data for beauty hadron masses are available, a comparison with the theoretical values allows a quantitative estimate of the corrections to the static theory, which contain informations on hadron dynamics at low energy.

description: This paper presents and characterizes an Open Application Repository for Federated Learning (OARF), a benchmark suite for federated machine learning systems. Previously available benchmarks for federated learning have focused mainly on synthetic datasets and use a limited number of applications. OARF mimics more realistic application scenarios with publicly available data sets as different data silos in image, text and structured data. Our characterization shows that the benchmark suite is diverse in data size, distribution, feature distribution and learning task complexity. The extensive evaluations with reference implementations show the future research opportunities for important aspects of federated learning systems. We have developed reference implementations, and evaluated the important aspects of federated learning, including model accuracy, communication cost, throughput and convergence time. Through these evaluations, we discovered some interesting findings such as federated learning can effectively increase end-to-end throughput.

description: Single-mode optical fibres exhibit a small but non-negligible birefringence that induces random polarisation rotations during light propagation. In classical interferometry these rotations give rise to polarisation-induced fading of the interferometric visibility, and in fibre-based polarimetric sensors as well as quantum optics experiments they scramble the information encoded in the polarisation state. Correcting these undesired rotations is consequently an important part of many experiments and applications employing optical fibres. In this Lab Note we review an efficient method for fully compensating fibre polarisation rotations for general input states. This method was not originally devised by us, but does to the best of our knowledge not appear in the literature, and our interactions with the community have indicated that it is not well known.

description: Questions of ethics in journalism have been brought to the foreground by several highprofile cases in recent years. The purpose of this thesis shall be to investigate the significance and context of several recent cases in which a journalist or news organization engaged in questionable tactics to report the news. My interest in such incidents, where one journalist or an organization’s ethics were questioned arose from an investigation of Judith Miller, The New York Times journalist who received considerable attention because she chose to serve time in jail rather than reveal the identity of a source that she was using for an article on Joseph Wilson and his fact-finding mission to Niger. This thesis will address ethical questions in modern journalism via cases studies from the standpoint of their significance for journalism in a time when (particularly print) journalism is losing profits. I will examine the result of several cases in which journalists or journalistic organizations committed a breach in ethics. These cases are significant not only because they occur in the present day, but because they occur near one another in time and have hence created a negative perception of ethics in journalism. They are also significant because they help to illustrate: 1) how ethical lapses occur, 2) what is unique about ethical cases in journalism in modern times, and 3) how newspapers can move forward from an ethical lapse, especially one made public

description: Temporal evolution of a clonal bacterial population is modelled taking into account reversible mutation and selection mechanisms. For the mutation model, an efficient algorithm is proposed to verify whether experimental data can be explained by this model. The selection-mutation model has unobservable fitness parameters and, to estimate them, we use an Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) algorithm. The algorithms are illustrated using in vitro data for phase variable genes of Campylobacter jejuni.
