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

description: We propose a model with the left-handed and right-handed continuous Abelian gauge symmetry; $U(1)_L\times U(1)_R$. Then three right-handed neutrinos are naturally required to achieve $U(1)_R$ anomaly cancellations, while several mirror fermions are also needed to do $U(1)_L$ anomaly cancellations. Then we formulate the model, and discuss its testability of the new gauge interactions at collider physics such as the large hadron collider (LHC) and the international linear collider (ILC). In particular, we can investigate chiral structure of the interactions by the analysis of forward-backward asymmetry based on polarized beam at the ILC.

description: We consider the Q-state Potts model in the random-cluster formulation, defined on finite two-dimensional lattices of size L x N with toroidal boundary conditions. Due to the non-locality of the clusters, the partition function Z(L,N) cannot be written simply as a trace of the transfer matrix T\_L. Using a combinatorial method, we establish the decomposition Z(L,N) = \sum\_{l,D\_k} b^{l,D\_k} K\_{l,D\_k}, where the characters K\_{l,D\_k} = \sum\_i (λ\_i)^N are simple traces. In this decomposition, the amplitudes b^{l,D\_k} of the eigenvalues λ\_i of T\_L are labelled by the number l=0,1,...,L of clusters which are non-contractible with respect to the transfer (N) direction, and a representation D\_k of the cyclic group C\_l. We obtain rigorously a general expression for b^{l,D\_k} in terms of the characters of C\_l, and, using number theoretic results, show that it coincides with an expression previously obtained in the continuum limit by Read and Saleur.

description: We consider the gradient flow evolution of a phase-field model for crystal dislocations in a single slip system in the presence of forest dislocations. The model consists of a Peierls-Nabarro type energy penalizing non-integer slip and elastic stress. Forest dislocations are introduced as a perforation of the domain by small disks where slip is prohibited. The $Γ$-limit of this energy was deduced by Garroni and Müller (2005 and 2006). Our main result shows that the gradient flows of these $Γ$-convergent energy functionals do not approach the gradient flow of the limiting energy. Indeed, the gradient flow dynamics remains a physically reasonable model in the case of non-monotone loading. Our proofs rely on the construction of explicit sub- and super-solutions to a fractional Allen-Cahn equation on a flat torus or in the plane, with Dirichlet data on a union of small discs. The presence of these obstacles leads to an additional friction in the viscous evolution which appears as a stored energy in the $Γ$-limit, but it does not act as a driving force. Extensions to related models with soft pinning and non-viscous evolutions are also discussed. In terms of physics, our results explain how in this phase field model the presence of forest dislocations still allows for plastic as opposed to only elastic deformation.

description: Modern hardware is trending towards increasingly parallel and heterogeneous architectures. Contemporary machine processors are spread across multiple sockets, where each socket can access some system memory faster than the rest, creating non-uniform memory access (NUMA). Efficiently utilizing these NUMA machines is becoming increasingly important. This paper examines latest Intel Skylake and Xeon Phi NUMA node architectures, indicating possible performance problems for multi-threaded, data processing applications, due to the kernel thread migration (TM) mechanism, that I designed to optimize power consumption. We discuss NUMA aware CLARA workflow management system that defines proper level of vertical scaling and process affinity, associating CLARA worker threads with particular processor cores. By minimizing thread migration and context-switching cost among cores, we were able to improve the data locality and reduce the cache-coherency traffic among the cores, resulting in sizable performance improvements.
Adaptive context modeling and situation awareness for wireless sensor networks

Environmental Monitoring

description: Environmental monitoring is becoming increasingly important. With advances in technology, sensors are now capable of sampling continuous high fidelity data. Context awareness is now realizable and necessary when we have complex situations such as distinguishing seismic activity, a rock falling, and an animal walking on a volcano. In this thesis, we developed and tested a novel adaptive context modeling and situation awareness architecture for detecting seismic tremors on volcanoes. This system allows wireless sensor networks to autonomously adapt to changes in the environment and in the network. Our system is comprised of two components an adaptable context modeling component and a dynamic situation awareness component. The purpose of our adaptable context modeling component is to provide an effective and intelligent context modeling framework that can adapt to changes in data quality. The purpose of this framework is not only to determine a specific context for a given situation, but to continually adjust itself in order to accurately model the environment at a specific instance in time based on the current state of the environment. We accomplished this by developing a three phase context model. In Phase I we developed a Bayesian network in order to determine the reliability of each data stream. We used a 0-1 knapsack optimization approach to choose the optimal subset of data. The optimal subset is input into Phase III, where we used a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to determine if and where a tremor occurred. After careful evaluation, we were able to determine that our context model was able to more accurately determine if and where a tremor occurred, when compared to several existing algorithms. Once the context was determined, we used our situation awareness component to appropriately adjust the network resources to meet the application requirements. More specifically, within each context the priority of the individual sensor nodes, data and the current state of the network are used to ensure that relevant high priority data are collected. Our performance analysis shows improvement based in overall throughput and a decrease in packet loss for high priority data compared to traditional bandwidth scheduling algorithms.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Accurate Light Field Depth Estimation with Superpixel Regularization over Partially Occluded Regions

description: Depth estimation is a fundamental problem for light field photography applications. Numerous methods have been proposed in recent years, which either focus on crafting cost terms for more robust matching, or on analyzing the geometry of scene structures embedded in the epipolar-plane images. Significant improvements have been made in terms of overall depth estimation error; however, current state-of-the-art methods still show limitations in handling intricate occluding structures and complex scenes with multiple occlusions. To address these challenging issues, we propose a very effective depth estimation framework which focuses on regularizing the initial label confidence map and edge strength weights. Specifically, we first detect partially occluded boundary regions (POBR) via superpixel based regularization. Series of shrinkage/reinforcement operations are then applied on the label confidence map and edge strength weights over the POBR. We show that after weight manipulations, even a low-complexity weighted least squares model can produce much better depth estimation than state-of-the-art methods in terms of average disparity error rate, occlusion boundary precision-recall rate, and the preservation of intricate visual features.

description: Palindromic sequences in DNA are unique genetic configurations where a sequence of nucleotides reads the same forward and backward on complementary strands. In particular, palindrome formation followed by subsequent amplifications are known to cause genetic instability, a hallmark of cancer. Despite the importance of these sequences, detecting palindromic DNA poses significant challenges due to their structural complexity.This paper describes a novel algorithm designed to efficiently detect palindromic sequences, including complex variations that have historically been difficult to identify. The algorithm performs well at identifying imperfect palindromes, palindromes with long arms, and palindromes containing substantial gaps between the arms. These more intricate configurations have been largely overlooked or poorly handled by existing algorithms. Additionally, the algorithm achieves significant speed improvements by optimizing the traditional Smith-Waterman or Needleman-Wunsch algorithms, reducing its complexity from quadratic (O(n2)) to linear (O(nd), where n is the length of the sequence). The algorithm described here will help the identification and annotation of palindrome sequences and facilitate the research on palindrome sequences and cancer.

description: This dissertation analyzes constructions and representations of racial identity in the world's most popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game, World of Warcraft, vis- -vis the ideological and political-economic history of racism in the United States. Chapter 1 uses Ken McAllister's Grammar of Gameworks to map the game's racial design and its ideological influences. Chapter 2 shows how WoW operates upon biologistic definitions of race and then traces those definitions' historical and literary origins from the Enlightenment through the twentieth century. Chapter 3 offers multimodal rhetorical analyses of the game's ten playable races, finding each to be a pastiche of nostalgic, Eurocentric representations. Chapter 4 uses Ian Bogost's theory of procedural rhetoric to interpret the meanings generated in the context of WoW's player-versus-player combat, which splits its players into permanently warring, racially divided factions. It concludes that although WoW offers a simulation of racist war, the game (and its players) have avoided mainstream labeling as racist by re-framing the conflict in terms of of nationalism, following the racial discourse of the "War on Terror." Finally, through a critical reflection on my own continuing participation in the game, I discuss the ways that white privilege and neoliberalism let players ignore or sidestep the many varieties of racism inherent in WoW and other fantasy games. Ultimately, I argue that World of Warcraft is a metaphor for the ambivalence that mainstream U.S. culture feels as it questions modernity's ways of being and communicating, but has yet to shift into the next paradigm.

description: The Belle II experiment started taking physics data in March 2019, with an estimated dataset of order 60 petabytes expected by the end of operations in the mid-2020s. Originally designed as a fully integrated component of the BelleDIRAC production system, the Belle II distributed data management (DDM) software needs to manage data across 70 storage elements worldwide for a collaboration of nearly 1000 physicists. By late 2018, this software required significant performance improvements to meet the requirements of physics data taking and was seriously lacking in automation. Rucio, the DDM solution created by ATLAS, was an obvious alternative but required tight integration with BelleDIRAC and a seamless yet non-trivial migration. This contribution describes the work done on both DDM options, the current status of the software running successfully in production and the problems associated with trying to balance long-term operations cost against short term risk.

description: The motion of three interacting point vortices in the plane can be thought of as the motion of three geometrical points endowed with a dynamics. This motion can therefore be re-formulated in terms of dynamically evolving geometric quantities, viz. the circle that circumscribes the vortex triangle and the angles of the vortex triangle. In this study, we develop the equations of motion for the center, $Z$, and radius, $R$, of this circumcircle, and for the angles of the vortex triangle, $A$, $B$, and $C$. The equations of motion for $R$, $A$, $B$ and $C$ form an autonomous dynamical system. A number of known results in the three-vortex problem follow readily from the equations, giving a new geometrical perspective on the problem.

Possessed or Insane? Diagnostic Puzzles in Contemporary Egypt

description:
“At the heart of this topic is a puzzle ( lughz ),” my long-term friend and interlocutor Ahmad often said. I long thought Ahmad's interest in questions of disease at the intersection of psychiatry and Islam was only intellectual until I learned about one of his cousins’ past ailments. A skillful narrator, Ahmad had colorful ways of depicting that puzzle. “Imagine,” he once told me, “a young pious woman, a college student. Suddenly, she stops praying and studying, is morose, even aggressive sometimes. She locks herself in her room when she does not wander the streets, disappearing for hours. The family is worried, and they wonder: what is the problem?” Switching the tone from evocative to analytic, Ahmad continued: “In Egypt, when it comes to symptoms like seizures, hallucinations, and sudden behavioral changes, people use one of two main diagnoses: jinn possession ( mass al-jinn ) or mental illness ( maraḍ nafsī ). The young woman is either possessed or insane.” Ahmad's appeal to the imagination worked, as I came to think of Wittgenstein's famous duck-rabbit image that can alternatively be seen as a duck or a rabbit, with the duck's beak appearing as the rabbit's ears and vice versa.

Subjects: Flavonoids -- Analysis

description: High-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods were validated for the determination of homoeriodictyol, isosakuranetin, and taxifolin enantiomers in biological matrices. The quantification and racemization of these flavonoids in lemon, Yerba Santa, grapefruit, tu-fu-ling, tomato, and apple was accomplished. The validated HPLC methods were applied in studying the pharmacokinetics of homoeriodictyol, isosakuranetin, and taxifolin in a rodent animal model. Their stereoisomers were detected in serum and urine of rats primarily as glucuro-conjugates. Different pharmacokinetic parameters were observed for each stereoisomeric form for all three xenobiotics including: half-life, total clearance, volume of distribution, and area under the curve. To assess cytotoxicity, a variety of cancer cell lines were treated with racemic and stereoisomeric homoeriodictyol, isoskuranetin, and taxifolin. (+/- )-Isosakuranetin was most effective in cell growth inhibition of all cell lines studied. To assess amelioration of inflammation in an in vitro colitis model, colon adenocarcinoma cells were treated with the three flavonoids. Inflammation was induced and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release was measured. The flavonoids exhibited a concentration-dependent reduction in PGE2 levels. The three flavonoids were also assessed for their antioxidant capacity; and cyclooxygenases and histone deacetylase inhibitory activities. To evaluate experimental reduction of adipogenesis, pre-adipocytes were treated with the flavonoids. Differentiation was induced and triglyceride accumulation was assessed. The flavonoids showed concentration-dependent inhibition of triglyceride accumulation. Using an alternative HPLC method of analysis, separation and quantification of various polyphenols in tomatoes and apples was achieved. Concentrations of polyphenols were measured with higher concentrations found in peel. The pharmacological activity of apple extracts was subsequently examined. Peel extracts demonstrated cell growth inhibition; reduction of inflammatory markers in experimental arthritis and colitis models; anti-oxidant activity; and inhibition of triglyceride accumulation in adipocytes. In conclusion, the developed HPLC methods for the chiral flavonoids were sensitive, and stereospecific. Stereospecific assessment of the quantity of these flavonoids in selected fruit was also achieved. Stereoisomers of homoeriodictyol, isosakuranetin, and taxifolin were functionally distinct; enantio-specific pharmacokinetics and pharmacological activities were observed. Furthermore, analysis of polyphenol content was successfully achieved in tomatoes and apples; and the pharmacological activity of selected apple extracts demonstrated potential phytopreventive health benefits that require further experimental scrutinity.

description: The JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) experiment is a multi-purpose neutrino experiment designed to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy and precisely measure oscillation parameters. It is composed of a 20kton liquid scintillator central detector equipped with 18000 20'' PMTs and 25000 3'' PMTs, a water pool with 2000 20'' PMTs, and a top tracker. Monte-Carlo simulation is a fundamental tool for optimizing the detector design, tuning reconstruction algorithms, and performing physics study. The status of the JUNO simulation software will be presented, including generator interface, detector geometry, physics processes, MC truth, pull mode electronic simulation and background mixing. This contribution will also present the latest update of JUNO simulation software, including Geant4 upgraded from 9.4 to 10.4, and their performance comparison. Previous electronic simulation algorithm can only work for central detector, a new electronic simulation package is designed to enable joint simulation of all sub-detectors by using the Task/sub-Task/Algorithm/Tool scheme provided by SNiPER framework. The full simulation of optical photons in large liquid scintillator is CPU intensive, especially for cosmic muons, atmospheric neutrinos and proton decay events. For proton decay, users are only interested in the proton decay events with energy deposition between 100MeV and 700MeV, number of Michel electrons larger than 0, and the energy of Michel electron larger than 10MeV. Only 10% of the simulated proton decay events meet these requirements. We made some improvements on simulation procedure to enable doing full optical photon simulation only on some pre-selected events and reduce a lot of computing resources. A pre-simulation without optical photon simulation is carried out firstly, with all the Geant4 steps and other necessary MC truth information saved. Then a pre-selection based on MC truth information can determine which event need to be full simulated with optical photon processes activated and the G4Steps as input. This simulation procedure and relative interfaces can also be used for MPI or GPU based muon events full simulation.

description: Observational evidence for escaping exoplanet atmospheres has been obtained for a few exoplanets to date. It comes from strong transit signals detected in the ultraviolet, most notably in the wings of the hydrogen Lyman-$α$ (Ly$α$) line. However, the core of the Ly$α$ line is often heavily affected by interstellar absorption and geocoronal emission, limiting the information about the atmosphere that can be extracted from that part of the spectrum. Transit observations in atomic lines that are (a) sensitive enough to trace the rarefied gas in the planetary wind and (b) do not suffer from significant extinction by the interstellar medium could enable more detailed observations, and thus provide better constraints on theoretical models of escaping atmospheres. The absorption line of a metastable state of helium at 10830 Å could satisfy both of these conditions for some exoplanets. We develop a simple 1D model of escaping planetary atmospheres containing hydrogen and helium. We use it to calculate the density profile of helium in the 2$^3$S metastable excited state and the expected in-transit absorption at 10830 Å for two exoplanets known to have escaping atmospheres. Our results indicate that exoplanets similar to GJ 436b and HD 209458b should exhibit enhanced transit depths at 10830 Å, with $\sim 8\%$ and $\sim 2\%$ excess absorption in the line core, respectively.

Space invaders: First-time users feel like intruders in the makerspace

description:
Makerspaces have proven to be mainstays within library ecosystems. However, alongside the continued popularization of library makerspaces, there remains a seemingly immovable issue endemic to these environments; makerspaces continue to attract a narrow demographic of patrons. The threshold of the makerspace serves as a critical site for inquiry, specifically, for insight around students' everyday life information seeking (ELIS) behaviors. This study responds to the research question, “Why do students from underrepresented communities turn away at the threshold of a makerspace?” The research design is methodologically informed by participatory action research (PAR) and grounded theory and uses a virtual reality (VR) makerspace to provide a consistent “threshold” experience to capture students' fleeting first impressions. The research findings offer novel insight into the information seeking behaviors of students by capturing and analyzing critical data that haven't been collected before: the real-time thoughts and feelings of students from underrepresented communities entering a makerspace for the first time.
Scaling behavior at the tricritical point in the fermion-gauge-scalar model

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: We investigate a strongly coupled U(1) gauge theory with fermions and scalars on the lattice and analyze whether the continuum limit might be a renormalizable theory with dynamical mass generation. Most attention is paid to the phase with broken chiral symmetry in the vicinity of the tricritical point found in the model. There we investigate the scaling of the masses of the composite fermion and of some bosonic bound states. As a by-product we confirm the mean-field exponents at the endpoint in the U(1)-Higgs model, by analyzing the scaling of the Fisher zeros.

description: The data acquisition (DAQ) software for most applications in high energy physics is composed of common building blocks, such as a networking layer, plug-in loading, configuration, and process management. These are often re-invented and developed from scratch for each project or experiment around specific needs. In some cases, time and available resources can be limited and make development requirements difficult or impossible to meet. Moved by these premises, our team developed an open-source lightweight C++ software framework called DAQling, to be used as the core for the DAQ systems of small and medium-sized experiments and collaborations. The framework offers a complete DAQ ecosystem, including communication layer based on the widespread ZeroMQ messaging library, configuration management based on the JSON format, control of distributed applications, extendable operational monitoring with web-based visualization, and a set of generic utilities. The framework comes with minimal dependencies, and provides automated host and build environment setup based on the Ansible automation tool. Finally, the end-user code is wrapped in so-called "Modules", that can be loaded at configuration time, and implement specific roles. Several collaborations already chose DAQling as the core for their DAQ systems, such as FASER, RD51, and NA61. We will present the framework and project-specific implementations and experiences.

On the Born-Infeld equation for electrostatic fields with a superposition of point charges

description: In this paper, we study the static Born-Infeld equation $$ -\mathrm{div}\left(\frac{\nabla u}{\sqrt{1-|\nabla u|^2}}\right)=\sum_{k=1}^n a_kδ_{x_k}\quad\mbox{in }\mathbb R^N,\qquad \lim_{|x|\to\infty}u(x)=0, $$ where $N\ge3$, $a_k\in\mathbb R$ for all $k=1,\dots,n$, $x_k\in\mathbb R^N$ are the positions of the point charges, possibly non symmetrically distributed, and $δ_{x_k}$ is the Dirac delta distribution centered at $x_k$. For this problem, we give explicit quantitative sufficient conditions on $a_k$ and $x_k$ to guarantee that the minimizer of the energy functional associated to the problem solves the associated Euler-Lagrange equation. Furthermore, we provide a more rigorous proof of some previous results on the nature of the singularities of the minimizer at the points $x_k$'s depending on the sign of charges $a_k$'s. For every $m\in\mathbb N$, we also consider the approximated problem $$ -\sum_{h=1}^mα_hΔ_{2h}u=\sum_{k=1}^n a_kδ_{x_k}\quad\mbox{in }\mathbb R^N, \qquad\lim_{|x|\to\infty}u(x)=0 $$ where the differential operator is replaced by its Taylor expansion of order $2m$, see (2.1). It is known that each of these problems has a unique solution. We study the regularity of the approximating solution, the nature of its singularities, and the asymptotic behavior of the solution and of its gradient near the singularities.

description: Palindromic sequences in DNA are unique genetic configurations where a sequence of nucleotides reads the same forward and backward on complementary strands. In particular, palindrome formation followed by subsequent amplifications are known to cause genetic instability, a hallmark of cancer. Despite the importance of these sequences, detecting palindromic DNA poses significant challenges due to their structural complexity.This paper describes a novel algorithm designed to efficiently detect palindromic sequences, including complex variations that have historically been difficult to identify. The algorithm performs well at identifying imperfect palindromes, palindromes with long arms, and palindromes containing substantial gaps between the arms. These more intricate configurations have been largely overlooked or poorly handled by existing algorithms. Additionally, the algorithm achieves significant speed improvements by optimizing the traditional Smith-Waterman or Needleman-Wunsch algorithms, reducing its complexity from quadratic (O(n2)) to linear (O(nd), where n is the length of the sequence). The algorithm described here will help the identification and annotation of palindrome sequences and facilitate the research on palindrome sequences and cancer.

description: The High Performance Computing (HPC) domain aims to optimize code in order to use the last multicore and parallel technologies including specific processor instructions. In this computing framework, portability and reproducibility are key concepts. A way to handle these requirements is to use Linux containers. These "light virtual machines" allow to encapsulate applications within its environment in Linux processes. Containers has been recently rediscovered due to their abilities to provide both multi-infrastructure environnement for developers and system administrators and reproducibility due to image building file. Two container solutions are emerging: Docker for micro-services and Singularity for computing applications. We present here the status of the ComputeOps project which has the goal to study the benefit of containers for HPC applications.
