Instability of Extremal Relativistic Charged Spheres

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: With the question, ``Can relativistic charged spheres form extremal black holes?" in mind, we investigate the properties of such spheres from a classical point of view. The investigation is carried out numerically by integrating the Oppenheimer-Volkov equation for relativistic charged fluid spheres and finding interior Reissner-Nordström solutions for these objects. We consider both constant density and adiabatic equations of state, as well as several possible charge distributions, and examine stability by both a normal mode and an energy analysis. In all cases, the stability limit for these spheres lies between the extremal ($Q = M$) limit and the black hole limit ($R = R_+$). That is, we find that charged spheres undergo gravitational collapse before they reach $Q = M$, suggesting that extremal Reissner-Nordtröm black holes produced by collapse are ruled out. A general proof of this statement would support a strong form of the cosmic censorship hypothesis, excluding not only stable naked singularities, but stable extremal black holes. The numerical results also indicate that although the interior mass-energy $m(R)$ obeys the usual $m/R < 4/9$ stability limit for the Schwarzschild interior solution, the gravitational mass $M$ does not. Indeed, the stability limit approaches $R_+$ as $Q \to M$. In the Appendix we also argue that Hawking radiation will not lead to an extremal Reissner-Nordström black hole. All our results are consistent with the third law of black hole dynamics, as currently understood.

description: Mean Field Games provide a powerful framework to analyze the dynamics of a large number of controlled objects in interaction. Though these models are much simpler than the underlying differential games they describe in some limit, their behavior is still far from being fully understood. When the system is confined, a notion of "ergodic state" has been introduced that characterizes most of the dynamics for long optimization times. Here we consider a class of models without such an ergodic state, and show the existence of a scaling solution that plays similar role. Its universality and scaling behavior can be inferred from a mapping to an electrostatic problem.

description: Despite advances in treatment, asthma remains uncontrolled in many patients, with increased risk of exacerbation and associated healthcare resource utilization (HCRU). We describe patient characteristics, exacerbations, asthma control, and HCRU using GINA treatment step (GS) as a proxy for asthma severity.  Using a large, US, health-claims database, 4 longitudinal cohorts of 517,738 patients in GS2–5, including a subgroup of patients with baseline eosinophil (EOS) counts, were analyzed retrospectively (study period 2010 − 2016). Index for each cohort was patients’ first time entering the GS, determined by first claim of first regimen. Uncontrolled asthma was defined according to published criteria as a multi-dimensional measure that includes number of exacerbations. Key variables including, baseline characteristics, post-index exacerbations, and HCRU (all-cause and asthma-specific events) are summarized by descriptive statistics. Uncontrolled asthma was reported in 19.8% patients in GS2, 44.8% in GS3, 49.3% in GS4, and 58.6% in GS5. Annualized mean (SD) rates of exacerbation 12 months post-index generally increased across GS2–5 (0.26 [0.86], 0.32 [0.79], 0.36 [0.83], 0.29 [0.86], respectively). HCRU also increased with increasing GS, with higher HCRU among the uncontrolled cohort within each GS. In patients with EOS ≥300 cells/µL, uncontrolled asthma also increased with increasing GS (21.8%, 43.9%, 50.5%, 67.2% for GS2–5, respectively). This large database study provides real-world evidence of the substantial degree of uncontrolled asthma in US clinical practice across GS, supporting calls for better asthma management. Healthcare burden tends to increase with lack of control in all groups, highlighting the need for improved patient education, adherence, access, and treatment optimization.

description: A report on short-term ecological impacts from the Taman Pulau Kecil (TPK) Pulau Kei Kecil, Pulau-Pulau dan Perairan Sekitarnya (Kei Kecil MPA), in Maluku province, Indonesia, based on monitoring conducted in 2015 and 2018. Kei Kecil MPA was initiated in 2012 and formally established in 2016. Results suggest that hard coral cover is stable in the no-take zones and sustainable fishing (use) zones within the MPA. However, fish functional group (herbivore) biomass and key fisheries species biomass is declining within the MPA. There is limited evidence that the MPA is having a positive impact on ecological conditions using a matched-control sites impact evaluation framework. This lack of impact is unsurprising given the short time (two years) between formal MPA establishment and this evaluation. Results highlight the importance of continued MPA management actions focused on building MPA effectiveness to improve MPA performance.

description: We compute the chromo-field distributions of static color-dipoles in the fundamental and adjoint representation of SU(Nc) in the loop-loop correlation model and find Casimir scaling in agreement with recent lattice results. Our model combines perturbative gluon exchange with the non-perturbative stochastic vacuum model which leads to confinement of the color-charges in the dipole via a string of color-fields. We compute the energy stored in the confining string and use low-energy theorems to show consistency with the static quark-antiquark potential. We generalize Meggiolaro's analytic continuation from parton-parton to gauge-invariant dipole-dipole scattering and obtain a Euclidean approach to high-energy scattering that allows us in principle to calculate S-matrix elements directly in lattice simulations of QCD. We apply this approach and compute the S-matrix element for high-energy dipole-dipole scattering with the presented Euclidean loop-loop correlation model. The result confirms the analytic continuation of the gluon field strength correlator used in all earlier applications of the stochastic vacuum model to high-energy scattering.

description: "There are local interests peculiar to every town, -whether great or small, and common to all its inhabitants: every town, therefore, without distinction of size, ought to have its municipal council." "Your Excellencies are about to perform an act of deep significance to Australia, for we may all be confident that the city you are about to name will be prepared with due activity for its great future as the Seat of Government, where Australia will be mistress in her own home, and there will be no room for complaint of provincial influences in the pursuit of national aims." These statements, the one made by John Stuart Mill in his Considerations on Representative Government, the other by Sir Edmund Barton, Australia*s first Prime Minister, in a message to Lord and Lady Denman on the occasion of the naming of Australia's federal capital admirably present the two basic considerations to be studied by anyone seeking to evaluate the administrative system of the Australian Capital Territory. It is my aim to show, in this thesis, that these requirements are not altogether conflicting ones; that the establishment of some form of local representative government for the Territory is not only in the interest of the local populace but is also reconcilable with, and, to some extent, identifiable with the national interest.

description: There is growing observational evidence for a population of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in galactic bulges. We examine in detail the conditions under which these black holes must have originated from primordial black holes (PBHs). We consider the merging and accretion history experienced by SMBHs to find that, whereas it is possible that they were formed by purely astrophysical processes, this is unlikely and most probably a populations of primordial progenitors is necessary. We identify the mass distribution and comoving density of this population and then propose a cosmological scenario producing PBHs with the right properties. Although this is not essential we consider PBHs produced at the end of a period of inflation with a blue spectrum of fluctuations. We constrain the value of the spectral tilt in order to obtain the required PBH comoving density. We then assume that PBHs grow by accreting quintessence showing that their mass scales like the horizon mass while the quintessence field itself is scaling. We find that if scaling is broken just before nucleosynthesis (as is the case with some attractive non-minimally coupled models) we obtain the appropriate PBH mass distribution. Hawking evaporation is negligible in most cases, but we also discuss situations in which the interplay of accretion and evaporation is relevant.

description: This paper reports on a survey of past trends in national and sectoral R&D expenditure in New Zealand back to 1962 and models used to measure the rate of return to investment in R&D. Cobb Douglas models are compared with productivity models and are used to explore the interaction between R&D and labour and capital variables. Polynomial distributed lag models are investigated and the results compared with stock models. The average rates of return to R&D investment vary across sectors of the economy - some being surprisingly high - but some results remain ambiguous to interpret.

The hard processes are predicted by perturbative QCD calculations. The soft processes cannot be calculated directly using perturbative QCD, they are treated by a power correction model based on the analysis of infrared renormalons. Furthermore, an analysis of the gauge structure of QCD is presented using fits of the colour factors within the same combined QCD predictions.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In order to account for the observable Universe, any comprehensive theory or model of cosmology must draw from many disciplines of physics, including gauge theories of strong and weak interactions, the hydrodynamics and microphysics of baryonic matter, electromagnetic fields, and spacetime curvature, for example. Although it is difficult to incorporate all these physical elements into a single complete model of our Universe, advances in computing methods and technologies have contributed significantly towards our understanding of cosmological models, the Universe, and astrophysical processes within them. A sample of numerical calculations (and numerical methods) applied to specific issues in cosmology are reviewed in this article: from the Big Bang singularity dynamics to the fundamental interactions of gravitational waves; from the quark-hadron phase transition to the large scale structure of the Universe. The emphasis, although not exclusively, is on those calculations designed to test different models of cosmology against the observed Universe.

description: A report on short-term ecological impacts from the KKP3K Pulau Koon, Pulau-Pulau Kecil dan Perairan Sekitarnya (Koon MPA), in Maluku province, Indonesia, based on monitoring conducted in 2016 and 2018. Koon MPA was initiated in 2011, but has not yet been formally established and therefore lacks zonation and has limited implementation. Results suggest that hard coral cover is stable within the MPA and at surrounding control sites. Fish functional group (herbivore) biomass increased both within the MPA and at surrounding control sites, suggesting this increase was not driven by the MPA. Key fisheries species biomass was stable/has a non-significant decline in the MPA and at control sites. There is limited evidence that the MPA is currently having any effect on ecological conditions using a matched-control sites impact evaluation framework. This lack of impact is unsurprising given the low level of implementation of the MPA, and the short time period (two years) of this evaluation. Given a longer period of time, and continued MPA management actions focused on building MPA effectiveness, it is likely that the MPA performance will increase.

description: Negative differential mobility is the phenomenon in which the velocity of a particle decreases when the force driving it increases. We study this phenomenon in Markov jump models where a particle moves in the presence of walls that act as traps. We consider transition rates that obey local detailed balance but differ in normalisation, the inclusion of a rate to cross a wall and a load factor. We illustrate the full counting statistics for different choices of the jumping rates. We also show examples of thermodynamic uncertainty relations. The variety of behaviours we encounter highlights that negative differential mobility depends crucially on the chosen rates and points out the necessity that such choices should be based on proper coarse-graining studies of a more microscopic description.

description: We investigate the prevalence, properties, and kinematics of extraplanar diffuse ionized gas (eDIG) in a sample of 25 edge-on galaxies selected from the CALIFA survey. We measure ionized gas scale heights from ${\rm Hα}$ and find that 90% have measurable scale heights with a median of $0.8^{+0.7}_{-0.4}$ kpc. From the ${\rm Hα}$ kinematics, we find that 60% of galaxies show a decrease in the rotation velocity as a function of height above the midplane. This lag is characteristic of eDIG, and we measure a median lag of 21 km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$ which is comparable to lags measured in the literature. We also investigate variations in the lag with radius. $\rm H{\small I}$ lags have been reported to systematically decrease with galactocentric radius. We find both increasing and decreasing ionized gas lags with radius, as well as a large number of galaxies consistent with no radial lag variation, and investigate these results in the context of internal and external origins for the lagging ionized gas. We confirm that the ${\rm [S{\small II}]}$/${\rm Hα}$ and ${\rm [N{\small II}]}$/${\rm Hα}$ line ratios increase with height above the midplane as is characteristic of eDIG. The ionization of the eDIG is dominated by star-forming complexes (leaky ${\rm H{\small II}}$ regions). We conclude that the lagging ionized gas is turbulent ejected gas likely resulting from star formation activity in the disk as opposed to gas in the stellar thick disk or bulge. This is further evidence for the eDIG being a product of stellar feedback and for the pervasiveness of this WIM-like phase in many local star-forming galaxies.

description: We consider a 6D space-time which is periodic in one of the extra dimensions and compact in the other. The periodic direction is defined by two 4-brane boundaries. Both static and non-static exact solutions, in which the internal spacetime has constant radius of curvature, are derived. In the case of static solutions, the brane tensions must be tuned as in the 5D Randall-Sundrum model, however, no additional fine-tuning is necessary between the brane tensions and the bulk cosmological constant. By further relaxing the sole fine-tuning of the model, we derive non-static solutions, describing de Sitter or Anti de Sitter 4D spacetimes, that allow for the fixing of the inter-brane distance and the accommodation of pairs of positive-negative and positive-positive tension branes. Finally, we consider the stability of the radion field in these configurations by employing small, time-dependent perturbations around the background solutions. In analogy with results drawn in 5 dimensions, the solutions describing a de Sitter 4D spacetime turn out to be unstable while those describing an Anti de Sitter geometry are shown to be stable.

description: The introduction of genetically modified (GM) crops raises several issues. This paper looks at incentives required to reduce problems of illegal and improper use of GM proprietary technology used in growing GM crops. A simple model of producer behaviour describes some key influences of a farmer’s response to GM crops. The model is illustrated using the example of INGARD cotton grown in Australia. The key findings are that legitimate adoption of a GM crop by a farmer depends on their attitude to risk, the relative profitability of growing the GM crop, the probability of detection of illegal or improper use of the GM crop and the severity of fines successfully imposed for fraud or contract breaches. In the case of INGARD cotton the problem of illegal and improper use of the technology can be addressed with modest changes to some of these factors.

description: The main purposes of this study are to quantitatively investigate the production structure and the pattern of technical change in Thai agriculture for the period of 1972-94. A translog variable cost function framework is used to estimate a system of the cost function and the associated cost share equations for Thai agriculture. The system is estimated using the iterative seemingly unrelated regression method applied to a panel of 92 observations, comprising annual data from 1972 to 1994 for four regions in Thailand. The analytical results indicate that there were scale economies, low technical progress, and complementarities between capital and fertiliser, capital and hired labour, and capital and unpaid family labour. Technical change was biased toward saving hired labour, operator labour and unpaid family labour and also biased toward using fertiliser and capital.

description: This paper summarises the development, structure and data sources of the Western Australian World Wool Model. The model is a comparative static, partial equilibrium model of the world wool market. The technique used for the model is applied general equilibrium (AGE) modelling. Western Australia is separated from the rest of Australia as a production region. A key feature of the model is that raw wool is broken down into 9 different qualities, which determine the end use of the wool. The construction of a database containing these wool qualities is detailed. Potential uses for the model are outlined, and results are compared and contrasted with earlier structural models of the world wool market. Finally, advantages and disadvantages of the approach taken are outlined.

The “low-perception” cluster consisted of more male, older people, with lower household income, and living in larger households. Consumers who were more sensitive to fluid milk advertising tended to consume more fluid milk after perceiving advertising.
Measurement of the Charm Structure Function of the Photon at LEP

Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Charm production is studied in deep-inelastic electron-photon scattering using OPAL data at e+e- centre-of-mass energies from 183 to 209 GeV. Charm quarks are identified by exclusive reconstruction of D* mesons. The cross-section of D* production is measured in a restricted kinematic region, and then extrapolated to the total charm production cross-section and the charm structure function of the photon. For x>0.1 the measurement is well described by Monte Carlo models and perturbative QCD calculations but for x<0.1 the predictions are lower than the data both in the directly measured region and after the extrapolation.

subject: price premiums

description: The nature of the competition policy public benefit tests, applied to various agricultural industries, is reviewed. Then, various analytical techniques that have been applied to the assessment of the public benefit test are examined. These techniques include analysis of price premiums, consideration of pooling and averaging, pricing to market tests, what-if scenarios, market power analysis, and price discriminating monopolist models. Some of the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches are summarised. Generally, all of these approaches have various strengths and a number of weaknesses so that the case for the assessment of costs and benefits must substantially depend on the logic of the effects of the regulation rather than the results of any particular model.

Livestock Dynamics: An Old Problem and Some New Tools

subject: dynamic processes

description: A problem encountered in the econometric estimation of dynamic models of livestock systems is dynamic instability during simulation of models. In the case of systems where economic decisions are involved in the breeding and the slaughter of animals it is possible for parameters to be obtained which generate dynamic instability. In the paper, a simple representation of the dynamics of a livestock system is examined using techniques of dynamic analysis. The dynamic stability of such models depends fundamentally on the parameters determining the births and deaths and thus the relative flows in and out of the stock of animals. In some situations very narrow stability ranges for the values of the parameters are observed.

description: The songwriting duo of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, the two founding members of the Beatles, composed some of the most popular and memorable songs of the last century. Despite having authored songs under the joint credit agreement of Lennon-McCartney, it is well-documented that most of their songs or portions of songs were primarily written by exactly one of the two. Furthermore, the authorship of some Lennon-McCartney songs is in dispute, with the recollections of authorship based on previous interviews with Lennon and McCartney in conflict. For Lennon-McCartney songs of known and unknown authorship written and recorded over the period 1962-66, we extracted musical features from each song or song portion. These features consist of the occurrence of melodic notes, chords, melodic note pairs, chord change pairs, and four-note melody contours. We developed a prediction model based on variable screening followed by logistic regression with elastic net regularization. Out-of-sample classification accuracy for songs with known authorship was 76\%, with a $c$-statistic from an ROC analysis of 83.7\%. We applied our model to the prediction of songs and song portions with unknown or disputed authorship.

Climate Change, Vegetation, and Welfare: Estimating the Welfare Loss to Landowners of Marginal Shifts in Blue Oak Habitat

description: Scientists predict that climate change will cause suitable habitat ranges to shift for many plant species. To the extent that proximity to particular vegetation types increases residents’ utility and/or these shifts affect services valued by all of society, such geographic shifts in ecosystems may significantly affect societal welfare. In this paper, I estimate the possible welfare change from the marginal loss of blue oak due to development and climate change in the Tulare Lake Basin (Fresno, Kern, and Tulare Counties) in California. Using a hedonic pricing model, the marginal values of blue oaks and the land cover types most likely to replace them (herbaceous, urban, and crop land) are estimated at multiple spatial scales, using 1997-2003 sales of single family residences for the Tulare Lake Basin. In addition to the common identification problems of specification error, omitted variable bias, and multicollinearity, the variables measuring the degree of proximity of a property to land cover types are endogenous. To identify the marginal values of land cover types at multiple spatial scales using two-stage least squares, instrumental variables are developed using soil data. Cluster robust standard errors are calculated due to spatial autocorrelation within neighborhoods. Results indicate that households do not differentiate between vegetation land cover types; there is no indirect cost of climate change resulting from marginal shifts in land cover types. The results also indicate that Tulare Lake Basin households are unlikely to be negatively affected by, and may actually benefit from, marginal losses of blue oak woodlands to agriculture and urban land use. These results highlight the importance of non-use and ecosystem services values, and the importance of coordinating land use policies at spatial scales above the municipality level.
Quintessence, super-quintessence and observable quantities in Brans-Dicke and non-minimally coupled theories

description: The different definitions for the equation of state of a non-minimally coupled scalar field that have been introduced in the literature are analyzed. Particular emphasis is made upon those features that could yield to an observable way of distinguishing non-minimally coupled theories from General Relativity, with the same or with alternate potentials. It is found that some earlier claims on that super-quintessence, a stage of super-accelerated expansion of the universe, is possible within realistic non-minimally coupled theories are the result of an arguable definition of the equation of state. In particular, it is shown that these previous results do not import any observable consequence, i.e. that the theories are observationally identical to General Relativity models and that super-quintessence is not more than a mathematical outcome. Finally, in the case of non-minimally coupled theories with coupling $F=1+ξϕ^2$ and tracking potentials, it is shown that no super-quintessence is possible.
