description: The traditional way of tackling discrete optimization problems is by using local search on suitably defined cost or fitness landscapes. Such approaches are however limited by the slowing down that occurs when the local minima that are a feature of the typically rugged landscapes encountered arrest the progress of the search process. Another way of tackling optimization problems is by the use of heuristic approximations to estimate a global cost minimum. Here we present a combination of these two approaches by using cover-encoding maps which map processes from a larger search space to subsets of the original search space. The key idea is to construct cover-encoding maps with the help of suitable heuristics that single out near-optimal solutions and result in landscapes on the larger search space that no longer exhibit trapping local minima. We present cover-encoding maps for the problems of the traveling salesman, number partitioning, maximum matching and maximum clique; the practical feasibility of our method is demonstrated by simulations of adaptive walks on the corresponding encoded landscapes which find the global minima for these problems.

CP violating supersymmetric contributions to the electroweak $ρ$ parameter

Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Effects of CP violation on the supersymmetric electroweak correction to the $ρ$ parameter are investigated. To avoid the EDM constraints, we require that arg$(μ)<10^{-2}$ and the non-universal trilinear couplings $A_f=(0,0,A_0)$ and also assume that gluinos are heavier than 400 GeV. The CP phase $ϕ_t=$ arg($A_0$) leads to large enhancement of the relative mass splittings between $\tilde{t}_2$ and $\tilde{b}_L(\tilde{t}_1)$, which in turn reduces the one-loop contribution of the stop and sbottom to $Δρ$. For small $\tan β$, such a CP violating effect is prominent. We also study how much the two-loop gluon and gluino contributions are affected by the CP phase. Possible contributions to the $ρ$ parameter arising from the Higgs sector with CP violation are discussed.

description: The tilt, rotation, or offset of each CCD with respect to the focal plane, as well as the distortion of the focal plane itself, cause shape distortions to the observed objects, an effect typically known as field distortion (FD). We point out that FD provides a unique way of quantifying the accuracy of cosmic shear measurement. The idea is to stack the shear estimators from galaxies that share similar FD-induced shape distortions. Given that the latter can be calculated with parameters from astrometric calibrations, the accuracy of the shear estimator can be directly tested on real images. It provides a way to calibrate the multiplicative and additive shear recovery biases within the scientific data itself, without requiring simulations or any external data sets. We use the CFHTLenS images to demonstrate the accuracy of the Fourier_Quad shear recovery method. We highlight some details in our image processing pipeline, including background removal, source identification and deblending, astrometric calibration, star selection for PSF reconstruction, noise reduction, etc.. We show that in the shear ranges of -0.005 < g_1 < 0.005 and -0.008 < g_2 < 0.008, the multiplicative biases are at the level of < 0.04. Slight additive biases on the order of 5E-4 (6 sigma) are identified for sources provided by the official CFHTLenS catalog (not using its shear catalog), but are minor (4 sigma) for source catalog generated by our Fourier_Quad pipeline.

description: The aim of this paper is to model the yield curve for the Burundi’s bond market. The term structure of interest rates (yield curve) is a critical facet of financial analytics, impacting various investment and risk management decisions. It is used by the central bank to conduct and monitor its monetary policy. That instrument reflects the anticipation of inflation and the risk taken by investors. The rates reported on yield curve are the cornerstone of valuation of all assets. To provide such tool for Burundi financial market, we collected the auction reports of treasury securities from the website of the Central Bank of Burundi. Then, we computed the zero-coupon rates, and estimated actuarial rates of return by applying the Nelson-Siegel and Svensson models. A rigorous comparative analysis of these two prominent parametric yield curve models finds that the Nelson-Siegel model is the optimal choice for modeling the Burundian yield curve.

description: Cation–π interactions in alkali metal ion (Li+, Na+ and K+)–pillar[5]arene complexes and sandwiches of pillar[5]arene and benzene formed via alkali metal ions are studied in the light of density functional theory. Several possible modes of interaction between metal ions and pillar[5]arene have been studied. Results suggest that interaction is stronger in the complexes with the metal ion present inside the cavity of the pillar[5]arene as compared to that where the metal ion is outside the cavity. The calculated interaction energy further reveals that though cation–π complexes with larger number of alkali metal ions are unstable, however, corresponding sandwiches are stable, which further support the fact that pillar[5]arene–metal ion complexes can interact with other π–electron-rich species. Absorption spectra of the complexes formed undergo both blue and red shifts as compared to the pillar[5]arene.
Hypervelocity stars in the Gaia era: Runaway B stars beyond the velocity limit of classical ejection mechanisms

description: Young massive stars in the halo are assumed to be runaway stars from the Galactic disk. Possible ejection scenarios are binary supernova ejections (BSE) or dynamical ejections from star clusters (DE). Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are extreme runaway stars that are potentially unbound from the Galaxy. Powerful acceleration mechanisms such as the tidal disruption of a binary system by a supermassive black hole (SMBH) are required to produce them. Therefore, HVSs are believed to originate in the Galactic center (GC), the only place known to host an SMBH. The second Gaia data release (DR2) offers the opportunity of studying HVSs in an unprecedented manner. We revisit some of the most interesting high-velocity stars, that is, 15 stars for which proper motions with the Hubble Space Telescope were obtained in the pre-Gaia era, to unravel their origin. By carrying out kinematic analyses based on revised spectrophotometric distances and proper motions from Gaia DR2, kinematic properties were obtained that help constrain the spatial origins of these stars. Stars that were previously considered (un)bound remain (un)bound in Galactic potentials favored by Gaia DR2 astrometry. For nine stars (five candidate HVSs plus all four radial velocity outliers), the GC can be ruled out as spatial origin at least at $2σ$ confidence level, suggesting that a large portion of the known HVSs are disk runaway stars launched close to or beyond Galactic escape velocities. The fastest star in the sample, HVS3, is confirmed to originate in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Because the ejection velocities of five of our non-GC stars are close to or above the upper limits predicted for BSE and DE, another powerful dynamical ejection mechanism (e.g., involving massive perturbers such as intermediate-mass black holes) is likely to operate in addition to the three classical scenarios mentioned above.

description: We present the first fully general relativistic dynamical simulations of Abelian Higgs cosmic strings using 3+1D numerical relativity. Focusing on cosmic string loops, we show that they collapse due to their tension and can either (i) unwind and disperse or (ii) form a black hole, depending on their tension $Gμ$ and initial radius. We show that these results can be predicted using an approximate formula derived using the hoop conjecture, and argue that it is independent of field interactions. We extract the gravitational waveform produced in the black hole formation case and show that it is dominated by the $l=2$ and $m=0$ mode. We also compute the total gravitational wave energy emitted during such a collapse, being $0.5\pm 0.2~ \%$ of the initial total cosmic string loop mass, for a string tension of $Gμ=1.6\times 10^{-2}$ and radius $R=100~M_{pl}^{-1}$. We use our results to put a bound on the production rate of planar cosmic strings loops as $N \lesssim 10^{-2}~\mathrm{Gpc}^{-3}~\mathrm{yr}^{-1}$.

description: A new series of biscoumarin derivatives 3a–n were synthesized and evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. The reaction of the 4-aminocoumarin with benzaldehyde derivatives led to the formation of the title compounds in good yields. All the synthesized compounds showed potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 ranging from 20.0 ± 0.7 to180.1 ± 0.8 µM, in comparison with acarbose as the standard drug (IC50 = 750.0 1.5 µM). Among the synthesized compounds, 3,3'-(p-tolylmethylene)bis(4-amino-2H-chromen-2-one) 3c was found to be the most active compound with an IC50 value of 20.0 ± 0.7 µM. Kinetic study exhibited that compound 3c was a competitive inhibitor against α-glucosidase (Ki = 22.4 µM). In silico docking study for the most potent compound 3c was also performed.

description: We present the construction of a gravitational action including an infinite series of higher derivative terms. The outcome is a classically consistent completion of a well-studied quadratic curvature theory. The closed form for the full action is ghost-free bimetric theory, describing the interactions of a massive and a massless spin-2 field. At energies much smaller than the spin-2 mass scale, the theory reduces to general relativity. For energies comparable to the spin-2 mass, the higher derivative terms completing the Einstein-Hilbert action capture the effects of the additional massive spin-2 field. The theory is only ghost-free when the full series of higher derivatives is kept.

description: While India is aiming to rapidly transform from a cash-only to a cashless and digital economy, people with low digital literacy, especially middle-aged adults in India who matured in the pre-smartphone period, find it difficult to switch to digital payments and digital banking. Although banks and private companies have created mobile payment solutions to enable cashless banking, these solutions seem to be designed only for digital natives, i.e., the young and digitally literate population. These solutions do not address the needs of novice digital users having limited digital literacy. I have therefore designed a mobile banking experience intended to empower middle-aged Indian adults with limited digital literacy to use mobile banking independently and confidently.

description: Orignally the information in this record was migrated into tDAR from the National Archaeological Database Reports Module (NADB-R) and updated. NADB-R records consist of a document citation and limited other metadata but do not have the documents themselves uploaded. In 2013, as part of a project done for the US Air Force, digital curators of the Center for Digital Antiquity updated the original record by adding a digital copy of the article described and more detailed metadata.

The article summarizes an archaeological investigation conducted in November and December of 1985.  Piper Archaeological Research, Inc. under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy, conducted a preliminary archaeological survey of Avon Park Air Force Range (APAFR) in Polk and Highlands Counties, Florida.  The purpose of the survey was to provide base level data on the types, distribution, and potential significance of prehistoric and historic period sites located on the Range.  Information gathered during the survey was used to generate a preliminary predictive model of prehistoric and historic period site location for use by the Air Force in future planning and management of cultural resources on the Range.
Evaluating The Controls On The Physical Properties Of The Dogger Bank Formation
Creators: name: Blacker, Kieran J.
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The Dogger Bank is a large shallow topographic feature in the Central North Sea with water depths of 18 – 63m. As one of the proposed round 3 windfarm licence areas an extensive siteinvestigation was undertaken during 2010 and 2011 across Tranche A including extensive 2Dultra high resolution reflection seismic surveys, over 100 geotechnical boreholes, cone penetration tests, 15 wireline log boreholes and more. To adequately plan the location, type and cost of foundation installation an understanding of the physical and geotechnical property distribution of the area is necessary. This thesis demonstrates that these properties, whilst complex and often times difficult to tease out of the data, can be linked to geological processes and thus predicted with some confidence away from control points.
During relatively recent geological history (100 – 19 kyrs BP) The Dogger Bank was dynamically shaped by the Eurasian Ice Sheet, and at least two hypothesised glacial cycles led to deformation, deposition and post‐depositional modification of the sediments. Of these processes, the consolidation and deformation of The Dogger Bank Formation exerts the strongest control on the present day measured properties. The signal of consolidation can be correlated to the geophysical data through well to seismic ties and correlated on a regional scale across Tranche A. When the two data types are brought together and analysed using a novel mechanical modelling approach it is possible to not only explain the reason for the degree of consolidation, but also predict the likely thickness of the ice that was present at The Dogger Bank.
This thesis additionally outlines a series of recommended practices for future offshore site investigations for windfarm foundations. These are synthesised from identified shortcomings of the Tranche A dataset, and a reflection of the time that passed between data collection and the work presented in this thesis.

description: We have obtained Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 2200 A and optical V-band images of 20 low-luminosity active galactic nuclei, most of which are spectroscopically classified as LINERs, in order to search for a possible photoionizing continuum. Six (30%) of the galaxies are detected in the UV. Two of the detected galaxies (NGC 3642 and NGC 4203) have compact, unresolved nuclear UV sources, while the remaining four UV sources (in NGC 4569, NGC 5005, NGC 6500, and NGC 7743) are spatially extended. Combining our sample with that of Maoz et al. (1995), we find that the probability of detection of a nuclear UV source is greatest for galaxies having low internal reddening and low inclination, and we conclude that dust obscuration is the dominant factor determining whether or not a UV source is detected. Large emission-line equivalent widths and the presence of broad-line emission also increase the likelihood of detection of nuclear UV emission. Our results suggest that the majority of LINERs harbor obscured nuclear UV sources, which may be either accretion-powered active nuclei or young star clusters. Under the assumption that the compact UV sources in NGC 3642 and NGC 4203 have nonstellar power-law spectra extending into the extreme ultraviolet, the extrapolated ionizing fluxes are sufficiently strong to photoionize the narrow-line regions of these objects. The V-band images of many galaxies in our sample reveal remarkably strong dust lanes which may be responsible for obscuring some UV sources.

description: Waajen, G, Lürling M, van de Sande R. The unfulfilled promise of urban Lake Kleine Melanen (The Netherlands): diagnostics, experiment on reduction of sediment P-release and in-lake restoration. Lake Reserv Manage. 35:8–24. Lake Kleine Melanen (The Netherlands) experienced cyanobacterial blooms during the summertime, causing public health risks, turbid water, and lack of macrophytes. To improve the situation, we determined the underlying causes of the poor water quality. Our diagnosis included the water and phosphorus (P) budget of the lake and showed the need for the reduction of both the external and internal P loads. The external P load (7.5 mg P/m2/d) exceeded the transition between the clear water state and the turbid state by 44–121%, mainly due to the discharges from the separated stormwater sewer system in the adjacent neighborhood. Due to political and financial considerations of the managing authorities, the restoration (2010–2012) was restricted to internal management. To reduce the high internal P load (3.8 mg P/m2/d), we tested 3 sediment capping options in an enclosure experiment, showing the best results when we combined sand capping with the P fixative Phoslock® and flocculant polyaluminumchloride. A 0.6–1.3 m thick layer of soft sediment was dredged from the lake. Thereafter, the sediment was capped with a 0.2 m thick layer of sand to which Phoslock® was added. Additional in-lake measures including fish removal and shoreline reconstruction were also conducted to support improvement. We compared water quality before (2008–2010) and after (2012–2014) interventions. Although the mean concentration of total P was reduced from 0.30 to 0.11 mg P/L, and cyanobacterial chlorophyll a from 52 to 6 μg/L, cyanobacterial blooms still occurred. For further water quality improvement, the reduction of the external P load caused by stormwater runoff is required.

description: High energy photon emission rate from matter created in Pb + Pb collisions at CERN SPS energies is evaluated. The evolution of matter from the initial state up to freeze-out has been treated within the framework of (3+1) dimensional hydrodynamic expansion. We observe that the photon spectra measured by the WA98 experiment are well reproduced with hard QCD photons and photons from a thermal source with initial temperature ~ 200 MeV. The effects of the spectral changes of hadrons with temperature on the photon emission rate and on the equation of state are studied. Photon yield for Au + Au collisions at RHIC energies is also estimated.

Non-perturbative K3 Orientifolds with NS-NS B-flux

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We consider non-perturbative six dimensional N=1 space-time supersymmetric orientifolds of Type IIB on K3 with non-trivial NS-NS B-flux. All of these models are non-perturbative in both orientifold and heterotic pictures. Thus, some states in such compactifications arise in ``twisted'' open string sectors which lack world-sheet description in terms of D-branes. We also discuss their dual F-theory compactifications on certain Voisin-Borcea orbifolds. In particular, the explicit construction of non-perturbative K3 orientifolds with NS-NS B-flux gives additional evidence for the conjectured extension of Nikulin's classification in the context of Voisin-Borcea orbifolds.

description: Machine learning practitioners are often ambivalent about the ethical aspects of their products. We believe anything that gets us from that current state to one in which our systems are achieving some degree of fairness is an improvement that should be welcomed. This is true even when that progress does not get us 100% of the way to the goal of "complete" fairness or perfectly align with our personal belief on which measure of fairness is used. Some measure of fairness being built would still put us in a better position than the status quo. Impediments to getting fairness and ethical concerns applied in real applications, whether they are abstruse philosophical debates or technical overhead such as the introduction of ever more hyper-parameters, should be avoided. In this paper we further elaborate on our argument for this viewpoint and its importance.

description: Transmission spectroscopy is enabling precise measurements of atmospheric H2O abundances for numerous giant exoplanets. Constraints on hot Jupiter H2O abundances, and hence metallicities, have provided a powerful avenue to probe their formation. However, metallicity measurements for Neptune-mass exoplanets are only now becoming viable. Unlike hot Jupiters, exo-Neptunes are expected to possess super-solar metallicities due to accretion of H2O-rich and solid-rich planetesimals under the core-accretion paradigm. I present results from an extensive atmospheric retrieval analysis of the exo-Neptune HAT-P-26b. By simultaneously retrieving ground and space-based transmission spectra, the most precise atmospheric metallicity of an exo-Neptune to date is obtained. This analysis additionally reveals suggestive signatures of a combination of metal hydrides (at > 4σ confidence) which, if confirmed, represents the first inference of metal hydrides in an exoplanet atmosphere. Finally, the atmosphere and formation of HAT-P-26b is placed in context with the wider population of well-characterised planetary atmospheres.

description: Two-dimensional materials constitute a promising platform for developing nanoscale devices and systems. Their physical properties can be very different from those of the corresponding three-dimensional materials because of extreme quantum confinement and dimensional reduction. Here we report a study of TiTe$_2$ from the single-layer to the bulk limit. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we observed the emergence of a (2 x 2) charge density wave order in single-layer TiTe$_2$ with a transition temperature of 92 $\pm$ 3 K. Also observed was a pseudogap of about 28 meV at the Fermi level at 4.2 K. Surprisingly, no charge density wave transitions were observed in 2- and multi-layer TiTe$_2$, despite the quasi-two-dimensional nature of the material in the bulk. The unique charge density wave phenomenon in the single layer raises intriguing questions that challenge the prevailing thinking about the mechanisms of charge density wave formation.

description: We study the relation between the D8-branes wrapped on an orientable compact manifold $W$ in a massive Type IIA supergravity background and the M9-branes wrapped on a compact manifold $Z$ in a massive d=11 supergravity background from the K-theoretic point of view. By speculating on the use of the dimensional reduction to relate the two theories in different dimensions and by interpreting the D8-brane charges as elements of $K_0 (C(W))$ and the (inequivalent classes of) spaces of gauge fields on the M9-branes as the elements of $K_0(C(Z)\times_{\bar{k}^*}G}$ a connection between charges and gauge fields is argued to exist. This connection is realized as a map between the corresponding algebraic K-theory groups.

description: We have detected CO(3-2) line emission from the gravitationally lensed quasar MG 0414+0534 at redshift 2.64, using the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer. The line is broad, with Delta v_FWHM = 580 km/s. The velocity-integrated CO flux is comparable to, but somewhat smaller than, that of IRAS F10214+4724 and the Cloverleaf quasar (H1413+117), both of which are at similar redshifts. The lensed components A1+A2 and B were resolved, and separate spectra are presented for each. We also observed the unlensed radio quiet quasar PG 1634+706 at z=1.33, finding no significant CO emission.

description: Bidentate 5,5ʹ-alkyl-3,3ʹ-bi-1H-pyrazole and 2-(5-alkyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine ligands, L5 and L6, have been shown to be stronger synergists for the solvent extraction of Ni(II) from sulfate solutions by dinonylnaphthalene sulfonic acid (DNNSAH) than the structurally related tridentate ligand 2,6-bis-[5-n-nonylpyrazol-3-yl]pyridine, L1, previously reported by Zhou and Pesic. The bidentate ligands are highly selective, providing the option of sequential recovery of Ni(II) and Co(II) and rejection of other metals commonly found in the liquors resulting from the acidic sulfate leaching of laterite ores. They were the strongest synergists identified in a screening carried out on 18 types of bidentate and tridentate N-heterocyclic ligands, including the recently reported 2-(2ʹ-pyridyl)imidazoles, L9−11. X-ray crystal structures of Ni(II) complexes of model ligands for L5 and L6, having t-butyl rather than long-chain alkyl groups and with 2-naphthalene sulfonate rather than DNNSA− as counteranions, show that the [Ni(L)3]2+ complexes form strong H-bonds from the pyrazolyl NH groups to the oxygen atoms of the sulfonate groups, an arrangement that will stabilize [Ni(L)3·(DNNSA)2] assemblies and shield their polar functionalities from diluent molecules of the water-immiscible phase. UV–visible spectra and mass spectrometry provide evidence for the strong synergists displacing all water molecules from the inner coordination sphere of the Ni(II) ions.

description: We study anomalous Wess-Zumino couplings of D-branes and O-planes in a general background and derive them from a direct string computation by factorizing in the RR channel various one-loop amplitudes. In particular, we find that Op-planes present gravitational anomalous couplings involving the Hirzebruch polynomial L, similarly to the roof genus A encoding Dp-brane anomalous couplings. We determine, in each case, the precise dependence of these couplings on the curvature of the tangent and normal bundles.

description: We study the chaotic properties of a turbulent conducting fluid using direct numerical simulation in the Eulerian frame. The maximal Lyapunov exponent is measured for simulations with varying Reynolds number and magnetic Prandtl number. We extend the Ruelle theory of hydrodynamic turbulence to magnetohydrodynamic turbulence as a working hypothesis and find broad agreement with results. In other simulations we introduce magnetic helicity and these simulations show a diminution of chaos, which is expected to be eliminated at maximum helicity. We also find that the difference between two initially close fields grows linearly at late times, which was also recently found in hydrodynamics. This linear growth rate is found to be dependent on the dissipation rate of the relevant field. We discuss the important consequences this linear growth has on predictability. We infer that the chaos in the system is totally dominated by the velocity field and connect this work to real magnetic systems such as solar weather and confined plasmas.

description: The site designated Marin-374 is located approximately ten miles northwest of Novato, California, about one-half mile west of the U.S. Highway 101. The site was first worked by a team from the Novate Senior High Archaeology Club on July 18, 1966. At that time, there existed in the locality of the site only a house pit and a test pit dug earlier by a group from the Northwestern California Archaeological Society. Marin-374 is a single-component, proto-historic deposit left by the Coastal Miwok culture.
