Heavy Hybrids: decay to and mixing with Heavy Quarkonium
Creators: name: Oncala, Rubén
name: Soto, Joan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We report on a recent QCD based research on hybrid mesons containing $c\bar c$ or $b\bar b$ quarks. We present results for the spectrum, the decay widths to heavy quarkonium, and the role of mixing with the latter. We point out that mixing with heavy quarkonium provides a potentially large source of spin symmetry breaking. We identify candidates to hybrid mesons among the so called XYZ states in the charmonium and bottomonium spectrum.

The Hollywood Left and McCarthyism: the political and aesthetic legacy of the Red Scare
Creators: name: Klindo, Mile
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis assesses the long-term legacy of the anticommunist witch-hunts of the 1940s and 1950s on the political aesthetics of postwar Hollywood, focusing on selected blacklistees who, both individually and as a distinct group of class conscious filmmakers, embodied the new wave of social criticism of American capitalism on film before the HUAC offensive. -- The main subjects of this research - Polonsky, Rossen, Losey, Kazan, and Biberman - are reexamined as representatives of distinct ideological strands of the 'proletarianized' left culture of the first half of 20th century America. These key figures of the Hollywood Left are useful case studies on the impact of McCarthyism on American film art not only because their politics pushed them into the firing line of the anticommunist establishment, but also because, having matured artistically during this period of political reaction, their stories suggest some unexplored potential aesthetic directions for postwar American cinema, possible pathways prematurely blocked by the blacklisting of these filmmakers. -- Polonsky's sophisticated grasp of Marxism will be counter-posed to Rossen's Popular Front liberalism in their cinematic challenges to the American Way. Losey, who, along with Polonsky, carried the Marxist torch in Hollywood, went further than any US radical filmmaker in merging American vernacular modernism with Marxism. His assimilation of Meyerhold's political aesthetics, more than any other theoretical conquest in the Hollywood Left, held the promise of the kind of film art he eventually would accomplish, at least partially, in exile, in his collaboration with Harold Pinter in England. -- Kazan's and Brando's collaboration in On the Waterfront, heralded not only the triumph of naturalism in acting, but a fundamental shift in the approach to depicting social problems on film, centered now on individualism. Stanislavsky's triumph over Meyerhold (and Brecht) marked an irrevocable break from the 1930s paradigm in Hollywood, and the extinction of the proletarian ethos of the Popular Front era. The creators of Salt of the Earth, on the other hand, doggedly stuck to the proletarian, and by now criminalized, principles of their youth, earning the unique distinction of producing the only officially banned film in America. Reading this labour classic against its pro-Stalinist antithesis, On the Waterfront, therefore affords a rare opportunity to shed light on the (so far) under-researched, symbiotic, if hostile, relationship between McCarthyism and American Stalinism. -- It is within this political and aesthetic context that the thesis will seek to quantify the losses to American film art caused by McCarthyism.
Broad-band dielectric response of BTZ-BCT piezoceramics: soft and central mode behaviour

description: Dielectric properties of BTZ-BCT ceramics were probed in the frequency range from 10 Hz to 100 THz in a broad temperature range (10-900 K). Polar soft phonon observed in infrared spectra softens with cooling, however below 500 K its frequency becomes temperature independent. Simultaneously, a central mode activates in terahertz and microwave spectra; and it actually drives the ferroelectric phase transitions. Consequently, the phase transition strongly resemble a crossover between the dispacive and order-disorder type. The central mode vanishes below 200 K. The dielectric relaxation in the radiofrequency and microwave range anomalously broadens on cooling below T$_{C1}$ resulting in the nearly frequency independent dielectric loss bleow 200 K. This broadening comes from a broad frequency distribution of ferroelectric domain wall vibrations. Raman spectra reveal new phonons below 400 K, i.e. already 15 K above T$_{C1}$. Several weak modes are detected in the paraelectric phase up to 500 K in the Raman spectra. Activation of these modes is ascribed to the presence of polar nanoclusters in the material.

Expected Sizes of Poisson-Delaunay Mosaics and Their Discrete Morse Functions

description: Mapping every simplex in the Delaunay mosaic of a discrete point set to the radius of the smallest empty circumsphere gives a generalized discrete Morse function. Choosing the points from an n-dimensional Poisson point process, we study the expected number of simplices in the Delaunay mosaic as well as the expected number of critical simplices and non-singular intervals in the corresponding generalized discrete gradient. Observing connections with other probabilistic models, we obtain precise expressions for the expected numbers in low dimensions. In particular, we get the expected numbers of simplices in the Poisson-Delaunay mosaic in dimensions up to 4.

description: We study the effect of directional quenching on patterns formed in simple bistable systems such as the Allen-Cahn and the Cahn-Hilliard equation on the plane. We model directional quenching as an externally triggered change in system parameters, changing the system from monostable to bistable across an interface. We are then interested in patterns forming in the bistable region, in particular as the trigger progresses and increases the bistable region. We find existence and non-existence results of single interfaces and striped patterns.

Effective time reversal and echo dynamics in the transverse field Ising model
Creators: name: Schmitt, Markus

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The question of thermalisation in closed quantum many-body systems has received a lot of attention in the past few years. An intimately related question is whether a closed quantum system shows irreversible dynamics. However, irreversibility and what we actually mean by this in a quantum many-body system with unitary dynamics has been explored very little. In this work we investigate the dynamics of the Ising model in a transverse magnetic field involving an imperfect effective time reversal. We propose a definition of irreversibility based on the echo peak decay of observables. Inducing the effective time reversal by different protocols we find algebraic decay of the echo peak heights or an ever persisting echo peak indicating that the dynamics in this model is well reversible.
Unhappily ever-after: How a promise of future happiness is used to regulate desire and behaviour in Protestant Evangelical Christianity
Creators: name: Shorter, Rosie Clare
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: In this thesis, I consider how Protestant Evangelical Christian teaching on sexuality and marriage interacts with the marriage narratives and happiness discourse which pervade popular culture and promote the wedding day as the happiest day of one’s life. In doing so, I follow Sara Ahmed (2010) who, through a study of film, literature and common speech acts, argues that attaching a promise of future happiness to certain objects, such as marriage and family, allows happiness to function as an “orientation device” (p54) which regulates behaviour. I argue that we must also ask how happiness, specifically an idea of happiness-via-marriage, functions in Protestant Evangelical discourse on sexuality and marriage. It is widely acknowledged that Protestant Evangelical churches teach and maintain normative views on sexuality and marriage. It is assumed this teaching is due exclusively to biblical imperative. Rarely though is it explicitly asked what role extra-biblical sources or cultural narratives play in legitimising this teaching. I argue that within Protestant Evangelical discourse, ideas and understanding of happiness, salvation, and marriage easily merge. This conceptual merging creates a dangerous dichotomy: A happy marriage becomes a sign of salvation and right expression of faith, whereas, the Christian identity and sexuality of the unmarried or unhappy believer is considered suspect.

description: In this paper, we first establish a weak unique continuation property for time-fractional diffusion-advection equations. The proof is mainly based on the Laplace transform and the unique continuation properties for elliptic and parabolic equations. The result is weaker than its parabolic counterpart in the sense that we additionally impose the homogeneous boundary condition. As a direct application, we prove the uniqueness for an inverse problem on determining the spatial component in the source term in by interior measurements. Numerically, we reformulate our inverse source problem as an optimization problem, and propose an iteration thresholding algorithm. Finally, several numerical experiments are presented to show the accuracy and efficiency of the algorithm.

From Network Reliability to the Ising Model: A Parallel Scheme for Estimating the Joint Density of States

description: Network reliability is the probability that a dynamical system composed of discrete elements interacting on a network will be found in a configuration that satisfies a particular property. We introduce a new reliability property, Ising feasibility, for which the network reliability is the Ising model s partition function. As shown by Moore and Shannon, the network reliability can be separated into two factors: structural, solely determined by the network topology, and dynamical, determined by the underlying dynamics. In this case, the structural factor is known as the joint density of states. Using methods developed to approximate the structural factor for other reliability properties, we simulate the joint density of states, yielding an approximation for the partition function. Based on a detailed examination of why naive Monte Carlo sampling gives a poor approximation, we introduce a novel parallel scheme for estimating the joint density of states using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method with a spin exchange random walk. This parallel scheme makes simulating the Ising model in the presence of an external field practical on small computer clusters for networks with arbitrary topology with 10 to 6 energy levels and more than 10 to 308 microstates.

description: We discuss 6 GHz JVLA observations covering a volume-limited sample of 178 low redshift ($0.2 < z < 0.3$) optically selected QSOs. Our 176 radio detections fall into two clear categories: (1) About $20$\% are radio-loud QSOs (RLQs) having spectral luminosities $L_6 \gtrsim 10^{\,23.2} \mathrm{~W~Hz}^{-1}$ primarily generated in the active galactic nucleus (AGN) responsible for the excess optical luminosity that defines a \emph{bona fide} QSO. (2) The radio-quiet QSOs (RQQs) have $10^{\,21} \lesssim L_6 \lesssim 10^{\,23.2} \mathrm{~W~Hz}^{-1}$ and radio sizes $\lesssim 10 \mathrm{~kpc}$, and we suggest that the bulk of their radio emission is powered by star formation in their host galaxies. "Radio silent" QSOs ($L_6 \lesssim 10^{\,21} \mathrm{~W~Hz}^{-1}$) are rare, so most RQQ host galaxies form stars faster than the Milky Way; they are not "red and dead" ellipticals. Earlier radio observations did not have the luminosity sensitivity $L_6 \lesssim 10^{\,21} \mathrm{~W~Hz}^{-1}$ needed to distinguish between such RLQs and RQQs. Strong, generally double-sided, radio emission spanning $\gg 10 \mathrm{~kpc}$ was found associated with 13 of the 18 RLQ cores having peak flux densities $S_\mathrm{p} > 5 \mathrm{~mJy~beam}^{-1}$ ($log(L) \gtrsim 24$). The radio luminosity function of optically selected QSOs and the extended radio emission associated with RLQs are both inconsistent with simple "unified" models that invoke relativistic beaming from randomly oriented QSOs to explain the difference between RLQs and RQQs. Some intrinsic property of the AGNs or their host galaxies must also determine whether or not a QSO appears radio loud.

description: Numerical studies of gravitational collapse to black holes make use of apparent horizons, which are intrinsically foliation-dependent. We expose the problem and discuss possible solutions using the Hawking quasilocal mass. In spherical symmetry, we present a physically sensible approach to the problem by restricting to spherically symmetric spacetime slicings. In spherical symmetry the apparent horizons are gauge-independent in any spherically symmetric foliation but physical quantities associated with them, such as surface gravity and temperature, are not. The widely used comoving and Kodama foliations, which are of particular interest, are discussed in detail.

Earliest stages of the non-equilibrium in axially symmetric, self-gravitating, dissipative fluids

description: We report a study on axially and reflection symmetric dissipative fluids, just after its departure from hydrostatic and thermal equilibrium, at the smallest time scale at which the first signs of dynamic evolution appear. Such a time scale is smaller than the thermal relaxation time, the thermal adjustment time and the hydrostatic time. It is obtained that the onset of non--equilibrium will critically depend on a single function directly related to the time derivative of the vorticity. Among all fluid variables (at the time scale under consideration), only the tetrad component of the anisotropic tensor in the subspace orthogonal to the four--velocity and the Killing vector of axial symmetry, shows signs of dynamic evolution. Also, the first step toward a dissipative regime begins with a non--vanishing time derivative of the heat flux component along the meridional direction. The magnetic part of the Weyl tensor vanishes (not so its time derivative), indicating that the emission of gravitational radiation will occur at later times. Finally, the decreasing of the effective inertial mass density, associated to thermal effects, is clearly illustrated.

Year: 2017

description: pseudocode illustrating the event and object selections for all the signal regions
description: CERN-LHC. This paper presents a search for direct electroweak gaugino or gluino pair production with a chargino nearly mass-degenerate with a stable neutralino. It is based on an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The final state of interest is a disappearing track accompanied by at least one jet with high transverse momentum from initial-state radiation or by four jets from the gluino decay chain. The use of short track segments reconstructed from the innermost tracking layers significantly improves the sensitivity to short chargino lifetimes. The results are found to be consistent with Standard Model predictions. Exclusion limits are set at 95% confidence level on the mass of charginos and gluinos for different chargino lifetimes. For a pure wino with a lifetime of about 0.2 ns, chargino masses up to 460 GeV are excluded. For the strong production channel, gluino masses up to 1.65 TeV are excluded assuming a chargino mass of 460 GeV and lifetime of 0.2 ns. For the strong production channel, gluino masses up to 1.65 TeV are excluded assuming a chargino mass of 460 GeV and lifetime of 0.2 ns.
Vellaikaariya? Constructing Amy Jackson: Nativity and whiteness in Tamil cinema
Creators: name: Saverimuttu, Meenaatchi
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Since Liverpool local Amy Jackson’s debut in 2010, where she played a young British woman in the Tamil period-drama Madrasapattinam, Jackson has played exclusively Tamil/Indian characters in all of her films. Despite her Caucasian background, Jackson is nativised for these roles, her skin spray-tanned, her hair dyed, and her blue eyes hidden behind dark-brown contact lenses. More baffling are the recurrent in-film references to Jackson’s Tamil characters as White. I will focus my analysis on a recurring reference to Jackson’s characters as “the white chick” in two of Jackson’s more recent Tamil films, Thangamagan (2015) and Gethu (2016). These films position two vastly different Amy Jacksons: the on-screen Indian and the off-screen westerner. This thesis attempts to understand how the fantasy of Jackson’s femininity is produced through the clash of these two racially divergent figures. An intersectional feminist approach to both Jackson’s gender and race is necessary in understanding her on-screen representation. A closer look at the history of the involvement of Dravidian (nativist) politics within the Tamil film industry further indicates the need to discuss the incongruous figure of Jackson. The self-aware characteristics of Tamil cinema, referred to as cinematic excess, interfere with a conventional close-textual analysis; and as such, I will approach Jackson as a parallel text. References to Jackson’s canonically Tamil characters as “the white chick,” transgress the borders of the film text and create new meaning in the reception of both the character and the actor who plays her. Taking Jackson as its case study, this thesis is a sliver of a starting point towards a more enriched film theory for non-Western films.

description: We present a method for non-smooth convex minimization which is based on subgradient directions and string-averaging techniques. In this approach, the set of available data is split into sequences (strings) and a given iterate is processed independently along each string, possibly in parallel, by an incremental subgradient method (ISM). The end-points of all strings are averaged to form the next iterate. The method is useful to solve sparse and large-scale non-smooth convex optimization problems, such as those arising in tomographic imaging. A convergence analysis is provided under realistic, standard conditions. Numerical tests are performed in a tomographic image reconstruction application, showing good performance for the convergence speed when measured as the decrease ratio of the objective function, in comparison to classical ISM.

description: Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common type of cancer in Ethiopia. The incidence of BC is also rising, but the exact figure is still poorly known. Therefore, this study was conducted to address the gap in epidemiological data on BC in southern and southwestern Ethiopia. Materials and Methods: This is a five-year (2015–2019) retrospective study. The demographic and clinicopathological data were collected from biopsy reports of different kinds of breast carcinomas in the pathology department of Jimma University Specialized Hospital and Hawassa University Specialized Referral Hospital. Histopathological grades and stages were conducted using Nottingham grading and TNM staging system, respectively. Collected data were entered and analyzed using SPSS Version-20 software. Results: The mean age of patients at diagnosis was 42.27 (SD = 13.57) years. The pathological stage of most BC patients was stage III, and most of them had tumor sizes greater than 5 cm. Most patients had moderately differentiated tumor grade, and mastectomy was the most common type of surgery at the time of diagnosis. Invasive ductal carcinoma was the most common histological type of BC, followed by invasive lobular carcinoma. Lymph node involvement was seen in 60.5% of cases. Lymph node involvement was associated with tumor size (χ2 = 8.55, p = 0.033) and type of surgery (χ2 = 39.69, p < 0.001). Conclusions: This study showed that BC patients in southern and southwestern Ethiopia displayed advanced pathological stages, relatively young age at diagnosis, and predominant invasive ductal carcinoma histological patterns.

description: Signal tracklet acceptance times efficiency map for truth snippet
description: CERN-LHC. This paper presents a search for direct electroweak gaugino or gluino pair production with a chargino nearly mass-degenerate with a stable neutralino. It is based on an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The final state of interest is a disappearing track accompanied by at least one jet with high transverse momentum from initial-state radiation or by four jets from the gluino decay chain. The use of short track segments reconstructed from the innermost tracking layers significantly improves the sensitivity to short chargino lifetimes. The results are found to be consistent with Standard Model predictions. Exclusion limits are set at 95% confidence level on the mass of charginos and gluinos for different chargino lifetimes. For a pure wino with a lifetime of about 0.2 ns, chargino masses up to 460 GeV are excluded. For the strong production channel, gluino masses up to 1.65 TeV are excluded assuming a chargino mass of 460 GeV and lifetime of 0.2 ns. For the strong production channel, gluino masses up to 1.65 TeV are excluded assuming a chargino mass of 460 GeV and lifetime of 0.2 ns.

description: We propose a Jastrow factor for electron-electron correlations that interpolates between the radial symmetry of the Coulomb interaction at short inter-particle distance and the space-group symmetry of the simulation cell at large separation. The proposed Jastrow factor captures comparable levels of the correlation energy to current formalisms, is 40% quicker to evaluate, and offers benefits in ease of use, as we demonstrate in quantum Monte Carlo simulations.

description: LS 5039 is so far the best studied $γ$-ray binary system at multi-wavelength energies. A time resolved study of its spectral energy distribution (SED) shows that above 1 keV its power output is changing along its binary orbit as well as being a function of energy. To disentangle the energy dependence of the power output as a function of orbital phase, we investigated in detail the orbital light curves as derived with different telescopes at different energy bands. We analysed the data from all existing \textit{INTEGRAL}/IBIS/ISGRI observations of the source and generated the most up-to-date orbital light curves at hard X-ray energies. In the $γ$-ray band, we carried out orbital phase-resolved analysis of \textit{Fermi}-LAT data between 30 MeV and 10 GeV in 5 different energy bands. We found that, at $\lesssim$100 MeV and $\gtrsim$1 TeV the peak of the $γ$-ray emission is near orbital phase 0.7, while between $\sim$100 MeV and $\sim$1 GeV it moves close to orbital phase 1.0 in an orbital anti-clockwise manner. This result suggests that the transition region in the SED at soft $γ$-rays (below a hundred MeV) is related to the orbital phase interval of 0.5--1.0 but not to the one of 0.0--0.5, when the compact object is "behind" its companion. Another interesting result is that between 3 and 20 GeV no orbital modulation is found, although \textit{Fermi}-LAT significantly ($\sim$18$σ$) detects LS 5039. This is consistent with the fact that at these energies, the contributions to the overall emission from the inferior conjunction phase region (INFC, orbital phase 0.45 to 0.9) and from the superior conjunction phase region (SUPC, orbital phase 0.9 to 0.45) are equal in strength. At TeV energies the power output is again dominant in the INFC region and the flux peak occurs at phase $\sim$0.7.

description: Ein standardisierter und strukturierter Versorgungsprozess ist unabdingbare Voraussetzung für eine optimale Hörrehabilitation mit einem Cochlea-Implantat (CI). Auf Initiative des Präsidiums der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Hals-Nasen-Ohren-Heilkunde, Kopf- und Hals-Chirurgie e. V. (DGHNO-KHC) sollte auf Basis der aktuellen AWMF-Leitlinie (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Medizinisch-Wissenschaftlicher Fachgesellschaften), die den einheitlich in Deutschland geltenden medizinischen Standard in der CI-Versorgung beschreibt, ein Weißbuch erstellt und ein Zertifizierungssystem eingeführt werden, um die Umsetzung dieser Leitlinie standardisiert einrichtungsbezogen zu überprüfen und öffentlich zugänglich zu machen. Unter Einbindung einer unabhängigen Zertifizierungsorganisation sollte den beantragenden Kliniken durch die Erteilung des Qualitätszertifikats „Cochlea-Implantat-versorgende Einrichtung“ (CIVE) die erfolgreiche Umsetzung der Leitlinien- und Weißbuchinhalte bescheinigt werden können. Auf Grundlage der CI-Leitlinie wurde eine Struktur zur Umsetzung eines Zertifizierungsprogramms erarbeitet. Folgende Schritte waren hierzu notwendig: 1. Konzeption eines Qualitätssicherungssystems zur Zertifizierung leitlinienkonform arbeitender Kliniken; 2. Entwicklung der notwendigen Strukturen zur unabhängigen Überprüfung qualitätsrelevanter Struktur‑, Prozess- und Ergebnisparameter; 3. Erarbeitung eines Standardablaufs zur unabhängigen Zertifizierung von Kliniken; 4. Entwicklung eines Zertifikats und eines Logos zum Nachweis einer erfolgreichen Zertifizierung, 5. praktische Implementierung des Zertifizierungssystems. Nach Konzeption des Zertifizierungsprogramms, dessen Systematik und der dazugehörigen Organisationsstruktur wurde das Zertifizierungssystem 2021 erfolgreich eröffnet. Anträge zur Erteilung des Qualitätszertifikats CIVE konnten ab September 2021 formal gestellt werden. Bis Dezember 2022 wurden insgesamt 51 Offsite-Prüfungen durchgeführt. In den ersten 16 Monaten seit der Einführung wurden 47 Kliniken erfolgreich als CIVE zertifiziert. Im genannten Zeitraum konnten 20 Fachexperten als Gutachter geschult werden, die bis Dezember 2022 bereits 18 Vor-Ort-Prüfungen (Onsite-Audits) in Kliniken durchführten. Zusammenfassend konnte die Konzeptionierung, Strukturierung und praktische Umsetzung eines Zertifizierungssystems zur Qualitätssicherung in der CI-Versorgung für Deutschland erfolgreich umgesetzt werden.
Valley filtering by a line-defect in graphene: quantum interference and inversion of the filter effect

description: Valley filters are crucial to any device exploiting the valley degree of freedom. By using an atomistic model, we analyze the mechanism leading to the valley filtering produced by a line-defect in graphene and show how it can be inverted by external means. Thanks to a mode decomposition applied to a tight-binding model we can resolve the different transport channels in k-space while keeping a simple but accurate description of the band structure, both close and further away from the Dirac point. This allows the understanding of a destructive interference effect (Fano resonance or antiresonance) on the p-side of the Dirac point leading to a reduced conductance. We show that in the neighborhood of this feature the valley filtering can be reversed by changing the occupations with a gate voltage, the mechanism is explained in terms of a valley-dependent Fano resonance splitting. Our results open the door for an enhanced control of valley transport in graphene-based devices.
