description: Magnetic fields are widely observed in the Universe in virtually all astrophysical objects, from individual stars to entire galaxies, even in the intergalactic medium, but their specific generation has long been debated. Due to the development of more realistic models of galaxy formation, viable scenarios are emerging to explain cosmic magnetism, thanks to both deeper observations and more efficient and accurate computer simulations. We present here a new cosmological high-resolution zoom-in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation, using the adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) technique, of a dwarf galaxy with an initially weak and uniform magnetic seed field that is amplified by a small-scale dynamo driven by supernova-induced turbulence. As first structures form from the gravitational collapse of small density fluctuations, the frozen-in magnetic field separates from the cosmic expansion and grows through compression. In a second step, star formation sets in and establishes a strong galactic fountain, self-regulated by supernova explosions. Inside the galaxy, the interstellar medium becomes highly turbulent, dominated by strong supersonic shocks, as demonstrated by the spectral analysis of the gas kinetic energy. In this turbulent environment, the magnetic field is quickly amplified via a small-scale dynamo process and is finally carried out into the circumgalactic medium by a galactic wind. This realistic cosmological simulation explains how initially weak magnetic seed fields can be amplified quickly in early, feedback-dominated galaxies, and predicts, as a consequence of the small scale dynamo process, that high-redshift magnetic fields are likely to be dominated by their small scale components.

description: We present an exact version of the local bosonic algorithm for the simulation of dynamical quarks in lattice QCD. This version is based on a non-hermitian polynomial approximation of the inverse of the quark matrix. A Metropolis test corrects the systematic errors. Two variants of this test are presented. For both of them, a formal proof is given that this Monte Carlo algorithm converges to the right distribution. Simulation data are presented for different lattice parameters. The dynamics of the algorithm and its scaling in lattice volume and quark mass are investigated.

description: The superspinar proposed by Gimon and Horava is a rapidly rotating compact entity whose exterior is described by the over-spinning Kerr geometry. The compact entity itself is expected to be governed by superstringy effects, and in astrophysical scenarios it can give rise to interesting observable phenomena. Earlier it was suggested that the superspinar may not be stable but we point out here that this does not necessarily follow from earlier studies. We show, by analytically treating the Teukolsky equations by Detwiler's method, that in fact there are infinitely many boundary conditions that make the superspinar stable, and that the modes will decay in time. It follows that we need to know more on the physical nature of the superspinar in order to decide on its stability in physical reality.

description: We elucidate the origin of the phonon-mediated superconductivity in 2$H$-NbS$_2$ using the ab initio anisotropic Migdal-Eliashberg theory including Coulomb interactions. We demonstrate that superconductivity is associated with Fermi surface hot spots exhibiting an unusually strong electron-phonon interaction. The electron-lattice coupling is dominated by low-energy anharmonic phonons, which place the system on the verge of a charge density wave instability. We also provide definitive evidence for two-gap superconductivity in 2$H$-NbS$_2$, and show that the low- and high-energy peaks observed in tunneling spectra correspond to the $Γ$- and $K$-centered Fermi surface pockets, respectively. The present findings call for further efforts to determine whether our proposed mechanism underpins superconductivity in the whole family of metallic transition metal dichalcogenides.

Search for supersymmetry with Higgs boson to diphoton decays using the razor variables at $\sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV
Creators: name: CMS Collaboration

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: An inclusive search for anomalous Higgs boson production in the diphoton decay channel and in association with at least one jet is presented, using LHC proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$. The razor variables $M_\mathrm{R}$ and $\mathrm{R}^2$, as well as the momentum and mass resolution of the diphoton system, are used to categorize events into different search regions. The search result is interpreted in the context of strong and electroweak production of supersymmetric particles. We exclude bottom squark pair-production with masses below 450 GeV for bottom squarks decaying to a bottom quark, a Higgs boson, and the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) for LSP masses below 250 GeV. For wino-like chargino-neutralino production, we exclude charginos with mass below 170 GeV for LSP masses below 25 GeV. In the GMSB scenario, we exclude charginos with mass below 205 GeV for neutralinos decaying to a Higgs boson and a goldstino LSP with 100% branching fraction.

description: The bosonic strictly isospectral problem for Demkov-Ostrovsky (DO) effective potentials in the radially nodeless sector is first solved in the supersymmetric Darboux-Witten (DW) half line (or l-changing) procedure. As an application, for the κ=1 class, if one goes back to optics examples, it might be possible to think of a one-parameter family of Maxwell lenses having the same optical scattering properties in the nodeless radial sector. Although the relative changes in the index of refraction that one may introduce in this way are at the level of several percents, at most, for all DO orbital quantum numbers l\geq 0, the index profiles are different from the original Maxwell one, possessing an inflection point within the lens. I pass then to the DW full line (or N-changing) procedure, obtaining the corresponding Morse-type problem for which the supersymmetric results are well established, and finally come back to the half line with well-defined results

description: We present a parallelizable SSOR preconditioning scheme for Krylov subspace iterative solvers which proves to be efficient in lattice QCD applications involving Wilson fermions. Our preconditioner is based on a locally lexicographic ordering of the lattice points. In actual hybrid Monte Carlo applications with the bi-conjugate gradient stabilized method BiCGstab, we achieve a gain factor of about 2 in the number of iterations compared to conventional odd-even preconditioning. Whether this translates into similar reductions in run time will depend on the parallel computer in use. We discuss implementation issues using the `Eisenstat-trick' and machine specific advantages of the method for the APE100/Quadrics parallel computer. In a full QCD simulation with Wilson fermions on a 512-processor Quadrics QH4 we find a gain in cpu-time of a factor of 1.7 over odd-even preconditioning for a 24^3 x 40 lattice.

dark matter

description: We consider a model of light (sub-GeV) dark matter that escapes many of the bounds placed by current dark matter searches. Such low mass dark matter candidates, if produced as a thermal relic in the early universe, must be accompanied by light mediators in order to reproduce the dark matter abundance observed in the present-day universe. These light mediators provide new channels for the production and detection of dark matter at fixed-target neutrino experiments, and proton beam dumps. Detectors sensitive to neutrinos could detect the resulting relativistic dark matter beam through neutral-current-like interactions. Coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments such as COHERENT and Coherent Captain-Mills could produce these dark matter candidates through neutral pion decay at a rate similar to that of neutrinos. Low energy, coherent scattering channels can significantly enhance the expected dark matter signal beyond that expected at higher energy fixed-target experiments and provide unique sensitivity to light dark matter candidates.

description: The carrier-mediated RKKY interaction between local spins plays an important role for the application of magnetically doped graphene in spintronics and quantum computation. Previous studies largely concentrate on the influence of electronic states of uniform systems on the RKKY interaction. Here we reveal a very different way to manipulate the RKKY interaction by showing that the anomalous focusing - a well-known electron optics phenomenon in graphene P-N junctions - can be utilized to refocus the massless Dirac electrons emanating from one local spin to the other local spin. This gives rise to rich spatial interference patterns and symmetry-protected non-oscillatory RKKY interaction with a strongly enhanced magnitude. It may provide a new way to engineer the long-range spin-spin interaction in graphene.

description: The rapid economic growth is building new trends in careers. Almost every domain, including high-energy physics, needs people with strong capabilities in programming. In this evolving environment, it is highly desirable that young people are equipped with computational thinking (CT) skills, such as problem-solving and logical thinking, as well as the ability to develop software applications and write code. These are crucial elements of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics education (STEM). This talk will present an outcome from a Proof of Concept study of educational online activity. The project consists of building a first step of an interactive coding tutorial that will aim to introduce young people to computer science and particle physics principles in a fun and engaging way. Successful realization of this online educational asset will equip educators with a new tool to introduce STEM education and digital literacy in the classrooms, to eventually inspire young people to acquire necessary skills to be ready for a digital economic growth and future jobs.

Radiative corrections to masses and couplings in Universal Extra Dimensions

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

description: Models with an orbifolded universal extra dimension receive important loop-induced corrections to the masses and couplings of Kaluza-Klein (KK) particles. The dominant contributions stem from so-called boundary terms which violate KK number. Previously, only the parts of these boundary terms proportional to $\ln(ΛR)$ have been computed, where $R$ is the radius of the extra dimension and $Λ$ is cut-off scale. However, for typical values of $ΛR \sim 10 \cdots 50$, the logarithms are not particularly large and non-logarithmic contributions may be numerically important. In this paper, these remaining finite terms are computed and their phenomenological impact is discussed. It is shown that the finite terms have a significant impact on the KK mass spectrum. Furthermore, one finds new KK-number violating interactions that do not depend on $\ln(ΛR)$ but nevertheless are non-zero. These lead to new production and decay channels for level-2 KK particles at colliders.

description: We prove some detailed quantitative stability results for the contact set and the solution of the classical obstacle problem in $\mathbb{R}^n$ ($n \ge 2$) under perturbations of the obstacle function, which is also equivalent to studying the variation of the equilibrium measure in classical potential theory under a perturbation of the external field. To do so, working in the setting of the whole space, we examine the evolution of the free boundary $Γ^t$ corresponding to the boundary of the contact set for a family of obstacle functions $h^t$. Assuming that $h=h^t (x) = h(t,x)$ is $C^{k+1,α}$ in $[-1,1]\times \mathbb{R}^n$ and that the initial free boundary $Γ^0$ is regular, we prove that $Γ^t$ is twice differentiable in $t$ in a small neighborhood of $t=0$. Moreover, we show that the "normal velocity" and the "normal acceleration" of $Γ^t$ are respectively $C^{k-1,α}$ and $C^{k-2,α}$ scalar fields on $Γ^t$. This is accomplished by deriving equations for these velocity and acceleration and studying the regularity of their solutions via single and double layers estimates from potential theory.

description: An inclusive search for the standard model Higgs boson ($\mathrm{H}$) produced with large transverse momentum ($p_\mathrm{T}$) and decaying to a bottom quark-antiquark pair ($\mathrm{b}\overline{\mathrm{b}}$) is performed using a data set of pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 13 TeV collected with the CMS experiment at the LHC. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$. A highly Lorentz-boosted Higgs boson decaying to $\mathrm{b}\overline{\mathrm{b}}$ is reconstructed as a single, large radius jet and is identified using jet substructure and dedicated $\mathrm{b}$ tagging techniques. The method is validated with $\mathrm{Z}\to\mathrm{b}\overline{\mathrm{b}}$ decays. The $\mathrm{Z}\to\mathrm{b}\overline{\mathrm{b}}$ process is observed for the first time in the single-jet topology with a local significance of 5.1 standard deviations (5.8 expected). For a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV, an excess of events above the expected background is observed (expected) with a local significance of 1.5 (0.7) standard deviations.

description: Multi-drug resistance (MDR) is the major hindrance towards the successful treatment of malignant lung cancer. The aim of this study was to develop a novel nanoparticle co-loaded with docetaxel (DTX) and si-colon cancer-associated transcript-2 (siCCAT2) (NP-DTX/siCCAT2) for overcoming the DTX-resistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The NP-DTX/siCCAT2, developed by DTX-conjugated poly (D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) copolymers, has an average size of t 87.26 nm. Further modification of Transferrin (Tf) peptides on the surface of NP-DTX/siCCAT2 did not significantly change the particle size with an average diameter of 96.81 nm. The present study demonstrated that TfNP-DTX/siCCAT2 has excellent tumour targeting ability and resulted in an enhanced anti-tumour effect both in vitro and in vivo experiments. Not unexpectedly, a more excellent anti-tumour effect of NP-DTX/siCCAT2 was obtained than the NP-DTX because the silencing of CCAT2 levels in lung cancer cells resulted in down-regulated expressions of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug-resistance-associated proteins 1 (MRP1). Further investigation revealed that inhibition of CCAT2 expression dramatically increased the activity of miR-204-3p and thereby signally suppressed the IGFBP2/AKT/Bcl2 pathway.

description: This paper proves that from the algebraic point of view ELKO spinor fields belong together with Majorana spinor fields to a wider class of spinor fields, the so-called flagpole spinor fields, corresponding to the class 5, according to Lounesto spinor field classification. The main algebraic difference between ELKO and Majorana spinor fields is that in the first case their respective two 2-component spinor fields present opposite helicities, while in the second case the helicity associated with the two 2-component of ELKO are not imposed to be flipped. The proof of our statement is based on Lounesto general classification of all spinor fields, according to the relations and values taken by their associated bilinear covariants, and can shed some new light on the algebraic investigations concerning dark matter.

Using CMS Open Data for education, outreach and software benchmarking
Creators: name: Wunsch, Stefan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: The CMS collaboration at the CERN LHC has made more than one petabyte of open data available to the public, including large parts of the data which formed the basis for the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012. Apart from their scientific value, these data can be used not only for education and outreach, but also for open benchmarks of analysis software. However, in their original format, the data cannot be accessed easily without experiment-specific knowledge and skills. Work is presented that allows to set up open analyses that are performed close to the published ones, but which meet minimum requirements for experiment-specific knowledge and software. The suitability of this approach for education and outreach is demonstrated with analyses that have been made fully accessible to the public via the CERN open data portal. In the second part of the talk, the value of these data as basis for benchmarks of analysis software under realistic conditions of a high-energy physics experiment is discussed.
Auditory function and dysfunction in Müller’s organ of Schistocerca gregaria
Creators: name: Austin, Thomas
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024

description: Auditory system function declines with age, which is exacerbated in humans due to noisy environments. Age-related and noise-induced auditory decline are also found in insects, which provide an ideal resource for studying fundamental and widely conserved mechanisms of hearing loss. In this thesis we use the locust’s auditory Müller’s organ to understand fundamental physiological and genetic bases of auditory function dysfunction. Müller’s organ is especially accessible for electrophysiological analysis, can be swiftly extracted to quantify changes in gene expression and the tympanum can be measured non-invasively. Using a range of approaches, we demonstrate age-related changes in the locusts auditory system function such as robustness (amount of deviation from the baseline) and resilience (the ability to recover). Robustness of the auditory nerve slightly decreases with age, but remains equally resilient throughout its life, as does resilience of the tympanum. We reveal a plastic mechanism that compensates for the age-related decline in the ability of the transduction current to recover from noise (resilience). Next, we test a long-standing hypothesis: a decrease in ear metabolism is causative for age-related auditory decline. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that auditory organ metabolism decreases with age, but we fail to establish a direct causative link. Throughout this thesis we also examine sex differences in the properties of the locust auditory organ, revealing a faster age-related decrease in tympanal displacement in females. The metabolic rate of the female auditory organ also remains higher than that of males throughout adulthood. Finally, we seek to examine the molecular properties of the insect auditory system at the level of the mechanotransduction channel.

description: Binary black hole (BBH) mergers provide a prime source for current and future interferometric GW observatories. Massive BBH mergers may often take place in plasma-rich environments, leading to the exciting possibility of a concurrent electromagnetic (EM) signal observable by traditional astronomical facilities. However, many critical questions about the generation of such counterparts remain unanswered. We explore mechanisms that may drive EM counterparts with magnetohydrodynamic simulations treating a range of scenarios involving equal-mass black-hole binaries immersed in an initially homogeneous fluid with uniform, orbitally aligned magnetic fields. We find that the time development of Poynting luminosity, which may drive jet-like emissions, is relatively insensitive to aspects of the initial configuration. In particular, over a significant range of initial values, the central magnetic field strength is effectively regulated by the gas flow to yield a Poynting luminosity of $10^{45}-10^{46} ρ_{-13} M_8^2 \, {\rm erg}\,{\rm s}^{-1}$, with BBH mass scaled to $M_8 \equiv M/(10^8 M_{\odot})$ and ambient density $ρ_{-13} \equiv ρ/(10^{-13} \, {\rm g} \, {\rm cm}^{-3})$. We also calculate the direct plasma synchrotron emissions processed through geodesic ray-tracing. Despite lensing effects and dynamics, we find the observed synchrotron flux varies little leading up to merger.

description: We present the first systematic study of (non-radio-selected) radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies. Cross-correlation of the `Catalogue of Quasars and Active Nuclei' with several radio and optical catalogues led to the identification of 11 radio-loud NLS1 candidates including 4 previously known ones. Most of the radio-loud NLS1s are compact, steep spectrum sources accreting close to, or above, the Eddington limit. The radio-loud NLS1s of our sample are remarkable in that they occupy a previously rarely populated regime in NLS1 multi-wavelength parameter space. While their [OIII]/H_beta and FeII/H_beta intensity ratios almost cover the whole range observed in NLS1 galaxies, their radio properties extend the range of radio-loud objects to those with small widths of the broad Balmer lines. Among the radio-detected NLS1 galaxies, the radio index R distributes quite smoothly up to the critical value of R ~ 10 and covers about 4 orders of magnitude in total. Statistics show that ~7% of the NLS1 galaxies are formally radio-loud while only 2.5% exceed a radio index R > 100. Several mechanisms are considered as explanations for the radio loudness of the NLS1 galaxies and for the lower frequency of radio-louds among NLS1s than quasars. While properties of most sources (with 2-3 exceptions) generally do not favor relativistic beaming, the combination of accretion mode and spin may explain the observations. (abbreviated)

description: Young stellar objects are known to exhibit strong radio variability on timescales of weeks to months, and a few reports have documented extreme radio flares, with at least an order of magnitude change in flux density on timescales of hours to days. However, there have been few constraints on the occurrence rate of such radio flares or on the correlation with pre-main sequence X-ray flares, although such correlations are known for the Sun and nearby active stars. Here we report simultaneous deep VLA radio and Chandra X-ray observations of the Orion Nebula Cluster, targeting hundreds of sources to look for the occurrence rate of extreme radio variability and potential correlation with the most extreme X-ray variability. We identify 13 radio sources with extreme radio variability, with some showing an order of magnitude change in flux density in less than 30 minutes. All of these sources show X-ray emission and variability, but only on timescales <1h do we find clear correlations with extreme radio flaring. Strong X-ray variability does not predict the extreme radio sources and vice versa. Radio flares thus provide us with a new perspective on high-energy processes in YSOs and the irradiation of their protoplanetary disks. Finally, our results highlight implications for interferometric imaging of sources violating the constant-sky assumption.

Classifying integrable symmetric space strings via factorized scattering

description: All symmetric space $AdS_n$ solutions of type II supergravity have recently been found for $n>2$. For the supersymmetric solutions (and their T-duals) it is known that the Green-Schwarz string is classically integrable. We complete the classification by ruling out integrability for the remaining non-supersymmetric solutions. This is achieved by showing that tree-level scattering on the worldsheet of a GKP or BMN string fails to factorize for these cases.

description: We describe an array of quantum gates implementing Shor's algorithm for prime factorization in a quantum computer. The array includes a circuit for modular exponentiation with several subcomponents (such as controlled multipliers, adders, etc) which are described in terms of elementary Toffoli gates. We present a simple analysis of the impact of losses and decoherence on the performance of this quantum factoring circuit. For that purpose, we simulate a quantum computer which is running the program to factor N = 15 while interacting with a dissipative environment. As a consequence of this interaction randomly selected qubits may spontaneously decay. Using the results of our numerical simulations we analyze the efficiency of some simple error correction techniques.

description: We evaluate the partial decay widths of the lightest scalar glueball to pairs of pseudoscalar quark-antiquark states. The calculation is done in the valence (quenched) approximation on a $16^3 \time 24$ lattice at $β= 5.7$. These predictions and values obtained earlier for the infinite volume continuum limit of the scalar glueball's mass are in good agreement with the observed properties of $f_J(1710)$ and inconsistent with all other observed meson resonances.

Improving the Simulation of Quark and Gluon Jets with Herwig 7

description: The properties of quark and gluon jets, and the differences between them, are increasingly important at the LHC. However, Monte Carlo event generators are normally tuned to data from $e^+e^-$ collisions which are primarily sensitive to quark-initiated jets. In order to improve the description of gluon jets we make improvements to the perturbative and the non-perturbative modelling of gluon jets and include data with gluon-initiated jets in the tuning for the first time. The resultant tunes significantly improve the description of gluon jets and are now the default in Herwig 7.1.

description: SIM PlanetQuest (Space Interferometry Mission) is a space-borne Michelson interferometer for precision stellar astrometry, with a nine meter baseline, currently slated for launch in 2015. One of the principal science goals is the astrometric detection and orbit characterization of terrestrial planets in the habitable zones of nearby stars. Differential astrometry of the target star against a set of reference stars lying within a degree will allow measurement of the target star's reflex motion with astrometric accuracy of 1 micro-arcsecond in a single measurement. We assess SIM's capability for detection (as opposed to characterization by orbit determination) of terrestrial planets in the habitable zones of nearby solar-type stars. We compare SIM's performance on target lists optimized for the SIM and Terrestrial Planet Finder Coronograph (TPF-C) missions. Performance is quantified by three metrics: minimum detectable planet mass, number and mass distribution of detected planets, and completeness of detections in each mass range. Finally, we discuss the issue of confidence in detections and non-detections, and show how information from SIM's planet survey can enable TPF to increase its yield of terrestrial planets.

Impulsive quantum measurements: restricted path integral versus von Neumann collapse
Creators: name: Calarco, Tommaso
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The relation between the restricted path integral approach to quantum measurement theory and the commonly accepted von Neumann wavefunction collapse postulate is presented. It is argued that in the limit of impulsive measurements the two approaches lead to the same predictions. The example of repeated impulsive quantum measurements of position performed on a harmonic oscillator is discussed in detail and the quantum nondemolition strategies are recovered in both the approaches.

description: Although nonequilibrium work and fluctuation relations have been studied in detail within classical statistical physics, extending these results to open quantum systems has proven to be conceptually difficult. For systems that undergo decoherence but not dissipation, we argue that it is natural to define quantum work exactly as for isolated quantum systems, using the two-point measurement protocol. Complementing previous theoretical analysis using quantum channels, we show that the nonequilibrium work relation remains valid in this situation, and we test this assertion experimentally using a system engineered from an optically trapped ion. Our experimental results reveal the work relation's validity over a variety of driving speeds, decoherence rates, and effective temperatures and represent the first confirmation of the work relation for non-unitary dynamics.

Detectability of Galactic Faraday Rotation in Multi-wavelength CMB Observations: A Cross-Correlation Analysis of CMB and Radio Maps

description: We introduce a new cross-correlation method to detect and verify the astrophysical origin of Faraday Rotation (FR) in multiwavelength surveys. FR is well studied in radio astronomy from radio point sources but the $λ^{2}$ suppression of FR makes detecting and accounting for this effect difficult at millimeter and sub-millimeter wavelengths. Therefore statistical methods are used to attempt to detect FR in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Most estimators of the FR power spectrum rely on single frequency data. In contrast, we investigate the correlation of polarized CMB maps with FR measure maps from radio point sources. We show a factor of $\sim30$ increase in sensitivity over single frequency estimators and predict detections exceeding $10σ$ significance for a CMB-S4 like experiment. Improvements in observations of FR from current and future radio polarization surveys will greatly increase the usefulness of this method.
