description: We study a large ensemble of nuclear spins interacting with a single electron spin in a quantum dot under optical excitation and photon detection. When a pair of applied laser fields satisfy two-photon resonance between the two ground electronic spin states, detection of light scattering from the intermediate exciton state acts as a weak quantum measurement of the effective magnetic (Overhauser) field due to the nuclear spins. If the spin were driven into a coherent population trapping state where no light scattering takes place, then the nuclear state would be projected into an eigenstate of the Overhauser field operator and electron decoherence due to nuclear spins would be suppressed: we show that this limit can be approached by adapting the laser frequencies when a photon is detected. We use a Lindblad equation to describe the time evolution of the driven system under photon emission and detection. Numerically, we find an increase of the electron coherence time from 5 ns to 500 ns after a preparation time of 10 microseconds.

description: The innermost astronomical unit in protoplanetary disks is a key region for stellar and planet formation, as exoplanet searches have shown a large occurrence of close-in planets that are located within the first au around their host star. We aim to reveal the morphology of the disk inner rim using near-infrared interferometric observations with milli-arcsecond resolution provided by infrared interferometry. We provide reconstructed images of 15 objects selected from the Herbig AeBe survey carried out with PIONIER at the VLTI, using SPARCO. We find that 40% of the systems are centrosymmetric at the angular resolution of the observations. For the rest of the objects, we find evidence for asymmetric emission due to moderate-to-strong inclination of a disk-like structure for 30% of the objects and noncentrosymmetric morphology due to a nonaxisymmetric and possibly variable environment (30%). Among the systems with a disk-like structure, 20% show a resolved dust-free cavity. The image reconstruction process is a powerful tool to reveal complex disk inner rim morphologies. At the angular resolution reached by near-infrared interferometric observations, most of the images are compatible with a centrally peaked emission (no cavity). For the most resolved targets, image reconstruction reveals morphologies that cannot be reproduced by generic parametric models. Moreover, the nonaxisymmetric disks show that the spatial resolution probed by optical interferometers makes the observations of the near-infrared emission sensitive to temporal evolution with a time-scale down to a few weeks. The evidence of nonaxisymmetric emission that cannot be explained by simple inclination and radiative transfer effects requires alternative explanations, such as a warping of the inner disks. Interferometric observations can, therefore, be used to follow the evolution of the asymmetry of those disks at a sub-au scale.

description: Finding optical setups producing measurement results with a targeted probability distribution is hard as a priori the number of possible experimental implementations grows exponentially with the number of modes and the number of devices. To tackle this complexity, we introduce a method combining reinforcement learning and simulated annealing enabling the automated design of optical experiments producing results with the desired probability distributions. We illustrate the relevance of our method by applying it to a probability distribution favouring high violations of the Bell-CHSH inequality. As a result, we propose new unintuitive experiments leading to higher Bell-CHSH inequality violations than the best currently known setups. Our method might positively impact the usefulness of photonic experiments for device-independent quantum information processing.

description: Comparative analysis of food demand expansion of a cash program, as compared to the food stamp program, is important for measuring trade-offs between goals of raising farm income and increasing food expenditures of the poor. A theoretical basis for assessing food demand impacts under each program is presented. Two effects are analyzed: 1) The effect on food demand of the individual household and 2) The effect of food demand at the aggregate level. Both indifference curve analysis and psychological need level theory are used.

description: Neutron stars (NSs) in scalar-tensor (ST) theories of gravitation can acquire scalar charges and generate distinct spacetimes from those in General Relativity (GR) through the celebrated phenomenon of spontaneous scalarization. Taking on an ST theory with the mass term of the scalar field, we determine the theory parameter space for spontaneous scalarization by investigating the linearized scalar field equation. Then the full numerical solutions for slowly rotating NSs are obtained and studied in great detail. The resulted spacetime is used to calculate test-particle geodesics. The lightlike geodesics are used to construct the profile of X-ray radiation from a pair of hot spots on the surface of scalarized NSs, which potentially can be compared with the data from the Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) mission for testing the ST theory.

description: The benefits to a typical High Plains cotton farmer from a cotton farmer owned reserve were estimated using a firm-level, income tax and farm policy simulation model. Eighteen farm programs were simulated including twelve variations of a farmer owned reserve using different entry prices and trigger prices. The after-tax net present value distributions for the different farm programs were compared using stochastic dominance. The results indicate that risk averse cotton producers should prefer the 1977 farm program to either a cotton farmer owned reserve or the farm program proposed by Secretary of Agriculture Block.

description: We discuss a general diagrammatic description of n-point functions in the QCD instanton vacuum that resums planar diagrams, enforces gauge invariance and spontaneously broken chiral symmetry. We use these diagrammatic rules to derive the pion and kaon quasi-parton amplitude and distribution functions at leading order in the instanton packing fraction for large but finite momentum. The instanton and anti-instanton zero modes and non-zero modes are found to contribute to the quasi-distributions, but the latter are shown to drop out in the large momentum limit. The pertinent pion and kaon parton distribution amplitudes and functions are made explicit at the low renormalization scale fixed by the inverse instanton size. Assuming that factorization holds, the pion parton distributions are evolved to higher renormalization scales with one-loop DGLAP and compared to existing data.

The Physics of a Sextet Quark Sector
Creators: name: White, Alan. R.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Electroweak symmetry breaking may be a consequence of color sextet quark chiral symmetry breaking. A special solution of QCD is involved, with a high-energy S-Matrix that can be constructed ``semi-perturbatively'' via the chiral anomaly and reggeon diagrams. An infra-red fixed point and color superconductivity are crucial components of the construction. Infinite momentum physical states contain both quarks and a universal ``anomalous wee gluon'' component, and the spectrum is more limited than is required by confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. The pomeron is approximately a regge pole and the Critical Pomeron describes asymptotic cross-sections. The strong coupling of the pomeron to the electroweak sector could produce large $x$ and $Q^2$ events at HERA, and vector boson pairs at Fermilab. Further evidence for the sextet sector at Fermilab would be a large $E_T$ jet excess, due in part to the non-evolution of $α_s$, and other phenomena related to the possibility that top quark production is due to the $η_6$. The sextet proton and neutron are the only new baryonic states. Sextet states dominate high energy hadronic cross-sections and stable sextet neutrons could produce both dark matter and ultra high energy cosmic rays. The cosmic ray spectrum knee suggests the effective sextet threshold is between Fermilab and LHC energies, with large cross-section effects expected at the LHC. Jet and vector boson cross-sections will be very much larger than expected, and sextet baryons should also be produced. Double pomeron produced states could provide definitive evidence for the existence of the sextet sector in the initial low luminosity running.

The personality features of moral types
Creators: name: Newitt, Christopher S.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study explores the personality features hypothesized to underlie, and differentiate, Kohlberg's moral typology. Kohlberg and colleagues proposed a moral typology, based on Weber's notion of ideal types, to describe the development of autonomous moral reasoning. Kohlberg's typology consists of the heteronomous moral type and the autonomous moral type. The typology is considered a developmental construct; for those individuals who do develop autonomous moral reasoning typically make the transition from heteronomous to autonomous reasoning in adolescence or early adulthood. Autonomous moral reasoning is characterized by an intrinsic moral understanding, balanced perspective-taking, and the fundamental valuing of human rights. Theorists have suggested that Kohlberg's moral typology represents pervasive personality styles. In studying the personality features associated with the moral typology, the intention is to develop a more holistic understanding of moral development and functioning than that offered by strictly rational or affective accounts. In the present study, a range of personality features from across the hierarchical structure of personality was assessed with a sample of 102 undergraduates (25 males, 77 females). Participants in the study completed measures of moral maturity, moral type, the Big-Five personality traits, ego identity status, perceived control, personal strivings, and perspective-taking. The data indicate that the autonomous moral type scored significantly higher than the heteronomous moral type on the measure of moral maturity, perceived personal control, and ego identity status. The results of this study suggest that Kohlberg's moral typology does not represent two pervasive and distinct personality types. However, the results do suggest that the two moral types differ on measures related to the active construction of personal moral meaning, as well as feelings of self-efficacy.

description: We have performed survey-type observations in 1 mm continuum and molecular lines toward dense cores (32 prestellar + 7 protostellar) with an average density of $\gtrsim$10$^5$ cm$^{-3}$ in the Taurus molecular clouds using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array-Atacama Compact Array (ALMA-ACA) stand-alone mode with an angular resolution of 6.$''$5 ($\sim$900 au). The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the innermost part of dense cores toward understanding the initial condition of star formation. In the protostellar cores, contributions from protostellar disks dominate the observed continuum flux with a range of 35-90% except for the very low-luminosity object. For the prestellar cores, we have successfully confirmed continuum emission from dense gas with a density of $\gtrsim$3 $\times$10$^5$ cm$^{-3}$ toward approximately one-third of the targets. Thanks to the lower spatial frequency coverage with the ACA-7 m array, the detection rate is significantly higher than that of the previous surveys, which have 0 or 1 continuum detected sources among large number of starless samples using the ALMA Main array. The statistical counting method tells us that the lifetime of the prestellar cores until protostar formation therein approaches the free-fall time as the density increases. Among the prestellar cores, at least two targets have possible internal substructures, which are detected in continuum emission with the size scale of $\sim$1000 au if we consider the molecular line (C$^{18}$O and N$_2$D$^{+}$) distributions. These results suggest that small-scale fragmentation/coalescence processes occur in a region smaller than 0.1 pc, which may determine the final core mass associated with individual protostar formation before starting the dynamical collapse of the core with central density of $\sim$(0.3-1) $\times$ 10$^6$ cm$^{-3}$.

The Normalization Problem of Special Relativity
Creators: name: Winkler, Franz-Guenter
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Classical Physics (physics.class-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: For the special theory of relativity, the normalization problem is formulated as the question how observers in constant relative motion may reach an agreement on space and time scales. As the normalization problem does not receive a thorough treatment in the standard development of the theory, two possible solutions called normalization at rest and normalization in motion are suggested. It is shown that normalization in motion makes the validity of the Lorentz transformation the result of mere conventions. The non-conventional approach following from normalization at rest requires an assumption concerning the acceleration of objects. A conceptual distinction between inside and outside observation, together with the analysis of the normalization problem, allows us to formulate an alternative interpretation of special relativity contrasting both the standard interpretation and Lorentz-type interpretations.

description: Motivated by the question of unitarity of Reggeon Field Theory, we use the effective field theory philosophy to find possible Reggeon Field Theory Hamiltonians $H_{RFT}$. We require that $H_{RFT}$ is self dual, reproduce all known limits (dilute-dense and dilute-dilute) and exhibits all the symmetries of the JIMWLK Hamiltonian. We find a family of Hamiltonians which satisfy all the above requirements. One of these is identical in form to the so called "diamond action" discussed in \cite{diamond,Balitsky05}. However we show by explicit calculation that the so called "diamond condition" is not satisfied beyond leading perturbative order.

Modelling the evolution of dusty starburst galaxies in multi-band deep surveys
Creators: name: Wang, Y. P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We model the constraints set on the evolution of dusty starburst galaxies by the current deep extragalactic surveys performed in the far-infrared with $\it Spitzer$, and at radio wavelengths with the VLA. Our models fit the number counts in all the available spectral bands well, and also provide a reasonably close match to the redshift distribution of the $\it Spitzer$ detections. We find: 1.) dusty starburst galaxies with infrared burst phases triggered by galactic interactions at redshift $z \sim 1-2$ are good candidates to fit the $\it Spitzer$ results at $24μm$, $70 μm$ and $160 μm$, assuming plausible strengths for the PAH features for the infrared luminous sources. An Arp220-like spectral energy distribution (SED) for Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIGs) of $L_{\rm ir}>10^{12} L_{\odot}$ and one like that of M82 for Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIGs) of $L_{\rm ir}\sim 10^{11-12} L_{\odot}$ give a successful fit to the $\it Spitzer$ $24μm$ and $\rm ISOCAM 15μm$ number counts at flux levels of $S_ν< 1 mJy$; 2.) the strong evolution of the number density of the ULIGs from redshift $z\sim 0$ to $\sim 1$ predicted by our models is consistent with the current deep $\rm 1.4 GHz$ radio surveys and accounts for the upturn in the $\rm 1.4 GHz$ differential counts at the sub-mJy flux level; and 3.) comparing with number counts at near infrared bands, as well as the background measurements using DIRBE and 2MASS, shows that only a fraction of the stellar mass in the Universe is included in our models of dusty starburst mergers at $z \sim 1 - 2$.

description: Pointing gestures are widely used in robot navigationapproaches nowadays. However, most approaches only use point-ing gestures, and these have two major limitations. Firstly, they need to recognize pointing gestures all the time, which leads to long processing time and significant system overheads. Secondly,the user's pointing direction may not be very accurate, so the robot may go to an undesired place. To relieve these limitations,we propose a voice-guided pointing robot navigation approach named VGPN, and implement its prototype on a wheeled robot,TurtleBot 2. VGPN recognizes a pointing gesture only if voice information is insufficient for navigation. VGPN also uses voice information as a supplementary channel to help determine the target position of the user's pointing gesture. In the evaluation,we compare VGPN to the pointing-only navigation approach. The results show that VGPN effectively reduces the processing timecost when pointing gesture is unnecessary, and improves the usersatisfaction with navigation accuracy.

Quantum state reconstruction via continuous measurement

description: We present a new procedure for quantum state reconstruction based on weak continuous measurement of an ensemble average. By applying controlled evolution to the initial state new information is continually mapped onto the measured observable. A Bayesian filter is then used to update the state-estimate in accordance with the measurement record. This generalizes the standard paradigm for quantum tomography based on strong, destructive measurements on separate ensembles. This approach to state estimation can be non-destructive and real-time, giving information about observables whose evolution cannot be described classically, opening the door to new types of quantum feedback control.

description: We investigate the crossover of the entanglement entropy towards its thermal value in nearly integrable systems. We employ equation of motion techniques to study the entanglement dynamics in a lattice model of weakly interacting spinless fermions after a quantum quench. For weak enough interactions we observe a two-step relaxation of the entanglement entropies of finite subsystems. Initially the entropies follow a nearly integrable evolution, approaching the value predicted by the Generalized Gibbs Ensemble (GGE) of the unperturbed model. Then, they start a slow drift towards the thermal stationary value described by a standard Gibbs Ensemble (GE). While the initial relaxation to the GGE is independent of the interaction, the slow drift from GGE to GE values happens on time scales proportional to the inverse interaction squared. For asymptotically large times and subsystem sizes the dynamics of the entropies can be predicted using a modified quasiparticle picture that keeps track of the evolution of the fermionic occupations caused by the integrability breaking. This picture gives a quantitative description of the results as long as the integrability-breaking timescale is much larger than the one associated with the (quasi) saturation to the GGE. In the opposite limit the quasiparticle picture still provides the correct late-time behaviour, but it underestimates the initial slope of the entanglement entropy.

description: While Indices, Index tracking funds and ETFs have grown in popularity during then last ten years, there are many structural problems inherent in Index calculation methodologies and the legal/economic structure of ETFs. These problems raise actionable issues of Suitability and fraud under US securities laws, because most Indices and ETFs are misleading, have substantial tracking errors and dont reflect what they are supposed to track. This article contributes to the existing literature by: a) introducing and characterizing the errors and Biases inherent in risk-adjusted index weighting methods and the associated adverse effects; b) showing how these biases/effects inherent in Index calculation methods reduce social welfare, and can form the basis for harmful arbitrage activities.

description: Rice is the second most important cereal crop worldwide, and the first in terms of number of people who depend on it as a major staple food. Rice blast disease is the most important biotic constraint of rice cultivation causing each year millions of dollars of losses. Despite the efforts for breeding new resistant varieties, agricultural practices and chemical control are still the most important methods for disease management. Thus, rice blast forecasting is a primary tool to support rice growers in controlling the disease. In this study, we compared four models for predicting rice blast disease, two operational process-based models (Yoshino and WARM) and two approaches based on machine learning algorithms (M5Rules and RNN), the former inducing a rule-based model and the latter building a neural network. In situ telemetry is important to obtain quality in-field data for predictive models and this was a key aspect of the RICE-GUARD project on which this study is based. According to the authors, this is the first time process-based and machine learning modelling approaches for supporting plant disease management are compared.

Dispelling the N^3 myth for the Kt jet-finder

description: At high-energy colliders, jets of hadrons are the observable counterparts of the perturbative concepts of quarks and gluons. Good procedures for identifying jets are central to experimental analyses and comparisons with theory. The Kt family of successive recombination jet finders has been widely advocated because of its conceptual simplicity and flexibility and its unique ability to approximately reconstruct the partonic branching sequence in an event. Until now however, it had been believed that for an ensemble of N particles the algorithmic complexity of the Kt jet finder scaled as N^3, a severe issue in the high multiplicity environments of LHC and heavy-ion colliders. We here show that the computationally complex part of Kt jet-clustering can be reduced to two-dimensional nearest neighbour location for a dynamic set of points. Borrowing techniques developed for this extensively studied problem in computational geometry, Kt jet-finding can then be performed in N ln N time. Code based on these ideas is found to run faster than all other jet finders in current use.

description: Implied volatility is a useful bit of information for futures and options hedgers and speculators. However, extraction of implied volatility from Black-Scholes (BS) option pricing model requires a numeric search. Since 1988, there have been numerous simplifying modifications to the BS formula proposed and presented in the applied economics and finance literature to allow approximation of implied volatility directly. This study identifies and tests these simplification methods for accuracy for call only and put-call average elicitation of an implied volatility estimate. Results show that accuracy varies by method and whether call only or put-call average approaches are applied.
