description: Final BDT weights for BDT_high for 'odd' events; ROOT 6.04/16; TMVA 4.2.1
description: CERN-LHC. The results of a search for the direct pair production of stops, the supersymmetric partner of the top-quark, in final states with one isolated electron or muon, several energetic jets, and missing transverse momentum are reported. The search uses data from pp collisions delivered by the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1/fb. A wide range of signal scenarios with different mass splittings between the stop, the lightest neutralino and possible intermediate gauginos or higgsinos is considered, including cases where the W-bosons or the top-quarks are off-shell. The analysis also targets the production of dark matter in association with a pair of top-quarks using the same final state. No significant excess over the Standard Model prediction is observed. The null results are used to set exclusion limits at 95% confidence level in several benchmark models, which reach up to a stop mass of 940 GeV. Stringent exclusion limits are also derived for all other considered stop decay scenarios, and upper limits are set on the visible cross-section for processes beyond the Standard Model.

description: Contact has been well established as an important quantity to govern dilute quantum systems, in which the pairwise correlation at short distance traces a broad range of thermodynamic properties. So far, studies have been focusing on contact in individual angular momentum channels. Here, we point out that, to have a complete description of the pairwise correlation in a general dilute quantum systems, contact should be defined as a matrix. Whereas the diagonal terms of such matrix include contact of all partial wave scatterings, the off-diagonal terms, which elude previous studies in the literature, characterise the coherence of the asymptotic pairwise wavefunction in the angular momentum space and determine important thermodynamic quantities including the momentum distribution. Contact matrix allows physicists to access unexplored connections between short-range correlations and macroscopic quantum phenomena. As an example, we show the direct connection between contact matrix and order parameters of a superfluid with mixed partial waves.

Synthesis of Carbide Derived Carbon by Electrolysis in Molten Chloride Salts in Open Air
Creators: name: Sun, Yani
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Carbide-derived carbon (CDC) refers to a form of carbon produced from carbon containing substrates. The prepared carbon with the combination of diverse carbon phases in one material not only is good at tribology and gas storage but also can be used in capacitors due to its high surface area. Compared to previous CDC synthesis methods, an improvement producing CDC by electrolysis in LiCl-KCl in open air is proposed in this work which makes the process more convenient and low-cost. Produced CDC, both SiC-CDC and TiC-CDC, showed broader D and G peaks, larger ratio of intensity (ID/IG) and FWHM (full width at half maximum) than those of untreated SiC or pure graphite on Raman results, indicating that CDCs with more disordered structures which may contain nanocrystalline graphite (NCG) and amorphous carbon (a-C) are successfully produced. The theoretical thickness of sample 4 is estimated by calculation which is approximately 1.44 μm.
Charged Lepton Flavour Violation and Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay in Left-Right Symmetric Models with Type I+II Seesaw

description: We study the new physics contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay ($0νββ$) half-life and lepton flavour violation (LFV) amplitude within the framework of the minimal left-right symmetric model (MLRSM). Considering all possible new physics contributions to $0νββ$ and charged lepton flavour violation $μ\rightarrow e γ, μ\rightarrow 3e$ in MLRSM, we constrain the parameter space of the model from the requirement of satisfying existing experimental bounds. Assuming the breaking scale of the left-right symmetry to be $\mathcal{O}(1)$ TeV accessible at ongoing and near future collider experiments, we consider the most general type I+II seesaw mechanism for the origin of tiny neutrino masses. Choosing the relative contribution of the type II seesaw term allows us to calculate the right handed neutrino mass matrix as well as Dirac neutrino mass matrix as a function of the model parameters, required for the calculation of $0νββ$ and LFV amplitudes. We show that such a general type I+II seesaw structure results in more allowed parameter space compared to individual type I or type II seesaw cases considered in earlier works. In particular, we show that the doubly charged scalar masses $M_Δ$ are allowed to be smaller than the heaviest right handed neutrino mass $M_N$ from the present experimental bounds in these scenarios which is in contrast to earlier results with individual type I or type II seesaw showing $M_Δ > M_N$.

description: A qudit ($d$-level quantum systems) has a large Hilbert space and thus can be used to achieve many quantum information and communication tasks. Here, we propose a method to transfer arbitrary $d$-dimensional quantum states (known or unknown) between two superconducting qudits coupled to a single cavity. The state transfer can be performed fast because of employing resonant interactions only. In addition, quantum states can be deterministically transferred without measurement. Numerical simulations show that high-fidelity transfer of quantum states between two superconducting transmon qudits ($d\leq5$) is feasible with current circuit QED technology. This proposal is quite general and can be applied to accomplish the same task with various superconducting qudits, quantum dots, or natural atoms coupled to a cavity or resonator.

description: In non-centrosymmetric superconductors, where the crystal structure lacks a centre of inversion, parity is no longer a good quantum number and an electronic antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling (ASOC) is allowed to exist by symmetry. If this ASOC is sufficiently large, it has profound consequences on the superconducting state. For example, it generally leads to a superconducting pairing state which is a mixture of spin-singlet and spin-triplet components. The possibility of such novel pairing states, as well as the potential for observing a variety of unusual behaviours, led to intensive theoretical and experimental investigations. Here we review the experimental and theoretical results for superconducting systems lacking inversion symmetry. Firstly we give a conceptual overview of the key theoretical results. We then review the experimental properties of both strongly and weakly correlated bulk materials, as well as two dimensional systems. Here the focus is on evaluating the effect of ASOC on the superconducting properties and the extent to which there is evidence for singlet-triplet mixing. This is followed by a more detailed overview of theoretical aspects of non-centrosymmetric superconductivity. This includes the effects of the ASOC on the pairing symmetry and the superconducting magnetic response, magneto-electric effects, superconducting finite momentum pairing states, and the potential of non-centrosymmetric superconductors to display topological superconductivity.

description: We study theoretically and numerically spasing conditions and optical dynamics of a composite hyperbolic metamaterial interacting with gain molecules. By combining Maxwell-Bloch equations with Green's function approach, we calculate lasing frequency and threshold population inversion for various gain density in the gain layer. We demonstrate high level of enhancement for photonic density of states in spacious spectral range provided by hyperbolic metastructures. We find that direct dipole-dipole interactions between molecules in the gain layer has a negligible effect on spasing conditions. We identify a region of parameters in which spasing can occur considering these effects.

description: Abstract: Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of the DEXIS CariVuTM (DEXIS, Inc, Bioggion, Switzerland) device in detecting interproximal carious lesions in comparison to standard bitewing radiographs. Methods: Bitewing radiographs and CariVuTM images of interproximal surfaces were obtained from patients at the University of Illinois (UIC) Department of Pediatric Dentistry. Twenty-six residents and faculty of UIC Pediatric Dentistry Department completed questionnaires to assess the depth of caries lesions. Results: The bitewing radiograph showed higher accuracy in the rating of no caries and incipient caries, while the CariVuTM was more accurate in the rating of caries reaching the DEJ. CariVuTM is equally as sensitive in detecting if there is any caries as bitewing radiograph and is more sensitive in the detection of caries reaching the DEJ. The bitewing being more valid that the CariVuTM in for rater validity. Conclusions: DEXIS CariVuTM is an inferior device in the detection of no caries and incipient caries in that it leads to over-diagnosis of the severity of the caries lesions. However, the DEXIS CariVuTM can be used as an adjunct in the monitoring of caries progression due to lack of radiation and to be used for high caries risk patients.

description: The experimental results of Kocsis et al., Mahler et al. and the proposed experiments of Morley et al. show that it is possible to construct "trajectories" in interference regions in a two-slit interferometer. These results call for a theoretical re-appraisal of the notion of a "quantum trajectory" first introduced by Dirac and in the present paper we re-examine this notion from the Bohm perspective based on Hamiltonian flows. In particular, we examine the short-time propagator and the role that the quantum potential plays in determining the form of these trajectories. These trajectories differ from those produced in a typical particle tracker and the key to this difference lies in the active suppression of the quantum potential necessary to produce Mott-type trajectories. We show, using a rigorous mathematical argument, how the active suppression of this potential arises. Finally we discuss in detail how this suppression also accounts for the quantum Zeno effect.

description: We study the interaction effects on thin films of topological mirror Kondo insulators (TMKI), where the strong interaction is expected to play an important role. Our study has led to the following results: (1) We identify a rich phase diagram of non-interacting TMKI with different mirror Chern numbers in the monolayer and bilayer thin films; (2) We obtain the phase diagram with interaction and identify the regimes of interaction parameters to mimic bosonic symmetry protected topological phases with either gapless bosonic modes or spontaneous mirror symmetry breaking at the boundary; (3) For the spontaneous mirror symmetry breaking boundary, we also study various domain-wall defects between different mirror symmetry breaking order parameters at the boundary. Our results reveal that the thin film TMKI serves as an intriguing platform for the experimental studies of interacting topological phases.

description: Cataclysmic variable stars (CVs) are close binary systems consisting of a white dwarf (primary) that is accreting matter from a low-mass companion star (secondary). From time to time such systems undergo large-amplitude brightenings. The most spectacular eruptions, over $10^4$ times in brightness, occur in classical novae and are caused by a thermonuclear runaway on the surface of the white dwarf. Such eruptions are thought to recur on timescales of $10^4-10^6$. In between, the system's properties depend primarily on the mass-transfer rate: if it is lower than a $10^{-9} M_{\odot}$/year, the accretion becomes unstable and the matter is dumped onto the white dwarf during quasi-periodic dwarf nova outbursts. The hibernation hypothesis predicts that nova eruptions strongly affect the mass-transfer rate, keeping it high for centuries after the event. Subsequently, the mass-transfer rate should significantly decrease for $10^3-10^6$ years, starting the hibernation phase. After that the nova awakes again - with accretion returning to the pre-eruption level and leading to a new nova explosion. The hibernation model predicts cyclical evolution of CVs through phases of high and low mass-transfer. The theory gained some support from the discovery of ancient nova shells around dwarf novae Z Cam and AT Cnc, but direct evidence for considerable mass-transfer changes prior, during and after nova eruptions has not hitherto been found. Here we report long-term observations of the classical nova V1213 Cen (Nova Cen 2009) covering its pre- and post-eruption phases. Within the six years before the explosion, the system revealed dwarf nova outbursts indicative of a low mass-transfer rate. The post-nova is two orders of magnitude brighter than the pre-nova at minimum light with no trace of dwarf nova behavior, implying that the mass-transfer rate increased considerably as a result of the nova explosion.

description: The dynamical arrest of gels is the consequence of a well defined structural phase transition, leading to the formation of a spanning cluster of bonded particles. The dynamical glass transition, instead, is not accompanied by any clear structural signature. Nevertheless, both transitions are characterized by the emergence of dynamical heterogeneities. Reviewing recent results from numerical simulations, we discuss the behavior of dynamical heterogeneities in different systems and show that a clear connection with the structure exists in the case of gels. The emerging picture may be also relevant for the more elusive case of glasses. We show, as an example, that the relaxation process of a simple glass-forming model can be related to a reverse percolation transition and discuss further perspective in this direction.

description: Any practical application of the Schwinger-Dyson equations to the study of $n$-point Green's functions of a field theory requires truncations, the best known being finite order perturbation theory. Strong coupling studies require a different approach. In the case of QED, gauge covariance is a powerful constraint. By using a spectral representation for the massive fermion propagator in QED, we are able to show that the constraints imposed by the Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformations are linear operations on the spectral densities. Here we formally define these group operations and show with a couple of examples how in practice they provide a straightforward way to test the gauge covariance of any viable truncation of the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the fermion 2-point function.

description: The Leggett-Garg inequality holds for any macrorealistic system that is being measured noninvasively. A violation of the inequality can signal that a system does not conform to our primal intuition about the physical world. Alternatively, a violation can simply indicate that "clumsy" experimental technique led to invasive measurements. Here, we consider a recent Leggett-Garg test designed to try to rule out the mundane second possibility. We tailor this Leggett-Garg test to the IBM 5Q Quantum Experience system and find compelling evidence that qubit $Q_2$ of the system cannot be described by noninvasive macrorealism.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Purpose: A study was conducted to evaluate the possible relationship between food-based rewards and children’s oral health status using a cross-sectional design within two pediatric dentistry clinical settings, University of Illinois Chicago College of Dentistry and Glen Ellyn Pediatric Dentistry. Methods: Following determination of eligibility, data collection was completed using a survey for guardians and a clinical exam for their children. The survey detailed guardian demographic information as well as food-based and non-food-based reward behaviors. The clinical exam collected dmft scores and plaque index. A score was calculated for each type of reward and was used to complete statistical analysis with dmft and plaque index. Results: Seventy-eight subject data pairs were collected, four were excluded due to incomplete information giving a total of 74 subjects. Statistical analysis completed using SPSS showed that there was no correlation between reward type, dmft or plaque index. Insurance level was a predictor for plaque index, but no other demographic factors affected the outcomes. Conclusions: This study did not demonstrate a relationship between food-based rewards and oral health outcomes of dmft and plaque index. More research is needed in order to determine possible mediating and influencing factors between food-based reward and oral health status.

description: We determine the relation between the Comptonization parameter predicted using X-ray data $Y_{C,Xray}$ and the X-ray luminosity $L_X$, both magnitudes derived from ROSAT data, with the Comptonization parameter $Y_{C,SZ}$ measured on {\it Planck} 2013 foreground cleaned Nominal maps. The 560 clusters of our sample includes clusters with masses $M\ge 10^{13}M_\odot$, one order of magnitude smaller than those used by the Planck Collaboration in a similar analysis. It also contains eight times more clusters in the redshift interval $z\le 0.3$. The prediction of the $β=2/3$ model convolved with the Planck antenna beam agrees with the anisotropies measured in foreground cleaned Planck Nominal maps within the X-ray emitting region, confirming the results of an earlier analysis (Atrio-Barandela et al. 2008). The universal pressure profile overestimates the signal by a 15-21\% depending on the angular aperture. We show that the discrepancy is not due to the presence of {\it cool-core} systems but it is an indication of a brake in the $L_X-M$ relation towards low mass systems. We show that relation of the Comptonization parameter averaged over the region that emits 99\% of the X-ray flux and and the X-ray luminosity is consistent with the predictions of the self-similar model. We confirm previous findings that the scaling relations studied here do not evolve with redshift within the range probed by our catalog.

description: We present mass and mass profile estimates for the Milky Way Galaxy using the Bayesian analysis developed by Eadie et al (2015b) and using globular clusters (GCs) as tracers of the Galactic potential. The dark matter and GCs are assumed to follow different spatial distributions; we assume power-law model profiles and use the model distribution functions described in Evans et al. (1997); Deason et al (2011, 2012a). We explore the relationships between assumptions about model parameters and how these assumptions affect mass profile estimates. We also explore how using subsamples of the GC population beyond certain radii affect mass estimates. After exploring the posterior distributions of different parameter assumption scenarios, we conclude that a conservative estimate of the Galaxy's mass within 125kpc is $5.22\times10^{11} M_{\odot}$, with a $50\%$ probability region of $(4.79, 5.63) \times10^{11} M_{\odot}$. Extrapolating out to the virial radius, we obtain a virial mass for the Milky Way of $6.82\times10^{11} M_{\odot}$ with $50\%$ credible region of $(6.06, 7.53) \times 10^{11} M_{\odot}$ ($r_{vir}=185^{+7}_{-7}$kpc). If we consider only the GCs beyond 10kpc, then the virial mass is $9.02~(5.69, 10.86) \times 10^{11} M_{\odot}$ ($r_{vir}=198^{+19}_{-24}$kpc). We also arrive at an estimate of the velocity anisotropy parameter $β$ of the GC population, which is $β=0.28$ with a $50\%$ credible region (0.21, 0.35). Interestingly, the mass estimates are sensitive to both the dark matter halo potential and visible matter tracer parameters, but are not very sensitive to the anisotropy parameter.

Zooming into the Cosmic Horseshoe: new insights on the lens profile and the source shape

description: The gravitational lens SDSS J1148+1930, also known as the Cosmic Horseshoe, is one of the biggest and of the most detailed Einstein rings ever observed. We use the forward reconstruction method implemented in the lens fitting code Lensed to investigate with great detail the properties of the lens and of the background source. We model the lens with different mass distributions, focusing in particular on the determination of the slope of the dark matter component. The inherent degeneracy between the lens slope and the source size can be broken when we can isolate separate components of each lensed image, as in this case. For an elliptical power law model, $κ(r) \sim r^{-t}$, the results favour a flatter-than-isothermal slope with a maximum-likelihood value t = 0.08. Instead, when we consider the contribution of the baryonic matter separately, the maximum-likelihood value of the slope of the dark matter component is t = 0.31 or t = 0.44, depending on the assumed Initial Mass Function. We discuss the origin of this result by analysing in detail how the images and the sources change when the slope t changes. We also demonstrate that these slope values at the Einstein radius are not inconsistent with recent forecast from the theory of structure formation in the LambdaCDM model.

Transit Clairvoyance: Enhancing TESS follow-up using artificial neural networks

description: The upcoming TESS mission is expected to find thousands of transiting planets around bright stars, yet for three-quarters of the fields observed the temporal coverage will limit discoveries to planets with orbital periods below 13.7 days. From the Kepler catalog, the mean probability of these short-period transiting planets having additional longer period transiters (which would be missed by TESS) is 18%, a value ten times higher than the average star. In this work, we show how this probability is not uniform but functionally dependent upon the properties of the observed short-period transiters, ranging from less than 1% up to over 50%. Using artificial neural networks (ANNs) trained on the Kepler catalog and making careful feature selection to account for the differing sensitivity of TESS, we are able to predict the most likely short-period transiters to be accompanied by additional transiters. Through cross-validation, we predict that a targeted, optimized TESS transit and/or radial velocity follow-up program using our trained ANN would have a discovery yield improved by a factor of two. Our work enables a near-optimal follow-up strategy for surveys following TESS targets for additional planets, improving the science yield derived from TESS and particularly beneficial in the search for habitable-zone transiting worlds.

Thermodynamic stability of black holes surrounded by quintessence

description: We study the thermodynamic stabilities of uncharged and charged black holes surrounded by quintessence (BHQ) by means of effective thermodynamic quantities. When the state parameter of quintessence $ω_q$ is appropriately chosen, the structures of BHQ are something like that of black holes in de Sitter space. Constructing the effective first law of thermodynamics in two different ways, we can derive the effective thermodynamic quantities of BHQ. Especially, these effective thermodynamic quantities also satisfy Smarr-like formulae. It is found that the uncharged BHQ is always thermodynamically unstable due to negative heat capacity, while for the charged BHQ there are phase transitions of the second order. We also show that there is a great deal of difference on the thermodynamic properties and critical behaviors of BHQ between the two ways we employed.

description: Final BDT weights for BDT_low for 'even' events; ROOT 5.34/25; TMVA 4.2.0
description: CERN-LHC. The results of a search for the direct pair production of stops, the supersymmetric partner of the top-quark, in final states with one isolated electron or muon, several energetic jets, and missing transverse momentum are reported. The search uses data from pp collisions delivered by the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1/fb. A wide range of signal scenarios with different mass splittings between the stop, the lightest neutralino and possible intermediate gauginos or higgsinos is considered, including cases where the W-bosons or the top-quarks are off-shell. The analysis also targets the production of dark matter in association with a pair of top-quarks using the same final state. No significant excess over the Standard Model prediction is observed. The null results are used to set exclusion limits at 95% confidence level in several benchmark models, which reach up to a stop mass of 940 GeV. Stringent exclusion limits are also derived for all other considered stop decay scenarios, and upper limits are set on the visible cross-section for processes beyond the Standard Model.

Robust unidirectional transport in a one-dimensional metacrystal with long-range hopping

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: In two- and three-dimensional structures, topologically-protected chiral edge modes offer a powerful mean to realize robust light transport. However, little attention has been paid so far to robust one-way transport in one-dimensional systems. Here it is shown that unidirectional transport, which is immune to disorder and backscattering, can occur in certain one-dimensional metacrystals with long-range hopping without resorting to topological protection. Such metacrystals are described by an effective Hermitian Hamiltonian with broken time reversal symmetry, and transport does not require adiabatic (Thouless) pumping. A simple implementation in optics of such one-dimensional metacrystals, based on transverse light dynamics in a self-imaging optical cavity with phase gratings, is suggested
