description: We derive constraints on primordial power spectrum, for the first time, from galaxy UV luminosity functions (LFs) at high redshifts. Since the galaxy LFs reflect an underlying halo mass function which depends on primordial fluctuations, one can constrain primordial power spectrum, particularly on small scales. We perform a Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis by varying parameters for primordial power spectrum as well as those describing astrophysics. We adopt the UV LFs derived from Hubble Frontier Fields data at $z = 6 -10$, which enable us to probe primordial fluctuations on the scales of $k \sim 10 - 10^3~{\rm Mpc}^{-1}$. Our analysis also clarifies how the assumption on cosmology such as primordial power spectrum affects the determination of astrophysical parameters.

description: We discuss a D-term inflation scenario where a right-handed sneutrino can be an inflaton field leading to a viable inflation and leptogenesis, with a minimal form of Kähler potential. The decay of an inflaton sneutrino can non-thermally create large enough lepton asymmetry. Its entropy production is also big enough to ameliorate the gravitino problem caused by too high a reheating temperature from the decay of a symmetry breaking field.

Wavelet analysis of millisecond variability of Cygnus X-1 during its failed state transition
Creators: name: Lachowicz, Pawel

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Application of multi-resolution analysis adopting wavelets in order to investigate millisecond aperiodic X-ray variability of Cyg X-1 is presented. This relatively new approach in a time-series analysis allows us to study both the significance of any flux oscillations localized in time-frequency space, as well as the stability of its period. Using the observations of the RXTE/PCA we analyze archival data from Cyg X-1 during its failed state transition. The power spectrum of such a state is strongly dominated by a single Lorentzian peak corresponding to a damped oscillator. Our wavelet analysis presented in this paper shows the existence of short lasting oscillations without an obvious trend in the frequency domain. Based on this result, we suggest the interpretation of the dominant components of Cyg X-1 power spectrum in all spectral states: (i) a power law component dominating a soft state is due to accretion rate fluctuations related to MRI instability in the cold disk, (ii) the low frequency Lorentzian is related to the same fluctuations but in the inner ion torus, and (iii) the high frequency Lorentzian (dominating the power spectrum during the failed state transition) is due to the dynamical pulsations of the inner ion torus. The usage of the wavelet analysis as a potential and attractive tool in order to spot the semi-direct evidences of accretion process onto black-holes is proposed.

Quasi-periodic oscillations: Resonant shear Alfv`en waves in neutron star magnetospheres
Creators: name: Rezania, Vahid

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we propose a new model for quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) based on oscillating magnetohydrodynamic modes in neutron star magnetospheres. We argue that the interaction of the accretion disk with the magnetosphere can excite resonant shear Alfv`en waves in a region of enhanced density gradients, the region where accretion material flows along the magnetic field lines in the magnetosphere. We demonstrate that depending on the distance of this region from the star and the magnetic field strength, the frequency of the field line resonance can range from several Hz (weaker field, farther from star), to approximately kHz frequencies (stronger field, ~ 2-10 stellar radii from the star). We show that such oscillations are able to significantly modulate inflow of matter from the high density region toward the star's surface, and possibly produce the observed X-ray spectrum. In addition, we show that the observed 2:3 frequency ratio of QPOs is a natural result of our model.

description: Recent investigations on optical nonlinearities of plasmonic materials suggest their responses may be even beyond the usual perturbative description. To better understand these surprisingly strong responses, we develop here a simple but general approach to describe the nonlinear optical response of plasmonic materials up to $n$th perturbation order. We apply the approach to understand spectral broadening occurring in resonant metasurfaces and investigate the enhancement of high-harmonic generation from multiply-resonant metasurfaces, predicting an over million-fold enhancement of higher harmonics.

description: Determining what to pay for cash rental rates is a big problem for most farmers. Typically, crop budgets are used for this decision. However, problems arise from this approach because the average revenue contained in the budget is often not the true marginal revenue. Farm size differences certainly affect the average and thus the marginal revenue. This paper calculates the true marginal revenue per acre so that a better estimate can be made of the cash rental rate. Farm analysis data is used to calculate the total revenue per acre. The first derivative then gives the marginal revenue.

For a sufficiently large interaction strength, the roton energy reaches zero and the system undergoes a second order quantum transition to the state with a periodic structure - rows of vortices. The number of rows increases with the interaction, and the vortices eventually form a triangular Abrikosov lattice.

Year: 2009

description: This study examined the reasons teachers hold for making decisions when reading printed material aloud to students. Using ethnographic interviews, the study explored the thinking of ten grade two and three teachers who read to their students in the classroom. Research questions addressed teachers' purposes for conducting read alouds, rationale for instructional strategies used during read alouds, and selection criteria of read aloud texts. Findings showed that decisions about read alouds were similar in kind to decisions teachers routinely make in other aspects of their work, and that the reasons are as much political as they are pedagogical.

description: One of the potential management practices of precision agriculture (PA) is the capability of varying input application rate across a field. A potential benefit of that practice is the reduction in yield variability. Temporal reduction in yield variability can also be achieved through irrigation practices. Combining both practices should lead to a reduction of the yield risk faced by the farmer. In this study, variable rate application of nutrients will include to nitrogen, potassium and phosphate. Mathematical programming techniques will be used in a standard E-V framework to analyze the ability of PA and/or irrigation to reduce production risk.

description: The transmission of detrimental mutations in animal mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) to the next generation is avoided by a high level of mtDNA content in mature oocytes. Thus, this maternal genetic material has the potential to mediate adaptive maternal effects if mothers change mtDNA level in oocytes in response to their environment or body condition. Here, we show that increased mtDNA abundance in mature oocytes was associated with fast somatic growth during early development but at the cost of increased mortality in three-spined sticklebacks. We also examined whether oocyte mtDNA and sperm DNA damage levels have interacting effects because they can determine the integrity of mitochondrial and nuclear genes in offspring. The level of oxidative DNA damage in sperm negatively affected fertility, but there was no interacting effect of oocyte mtDNA abundance and sperm DNA damage. Oocyte mtDNA level increased toward the end of the breeding season, and the females exposed to warmer temperatures during winter produced eggs with increased mtDNA copies. Our results suggest that oocyte mtDNA level can vary according to the expected energy demands for offspring during the embryogenesis and early growth. Thus, mothers can affect offspring development and viability through the context-dependent effects of oocyte mtDNA abundance.
Comparison of nonlinear mappings for reduced-order modelling of vibrating structures: normal form theory and quadratic manifold method with modal derivatives

description: The objective of this contribution is to compare two methods proposed recently in order to build efficient reduced-order models for geometrically nonlinear structures. The first method relies on the normal form theory that allows one to obtain a nonlinear change of coordinates for expressing the reduced-order dynamics in an invariant-based span of the phase space. The second method is the modal derivative (MD) approach, and more specifically the quadratic manifold defined in order to derive a second-order nonlinear change of coordinates. Both methods share a common point of view, willing to introduce a nonlinear mapping to better define a reduced order model that could take more properly into account the nonlinear restoring forces. However the calculation methods are different and the quadratic manifold approach has not the invariance property embedded in its definition. Modal derivatives and static modal derivatives are investigated, and their distinctive features in the treatment of the quadratic nonlinearity is underlined. Assuming a slow/fast decomposition allows understanding how the three methods tend to share equivalent properties. While they give proper estimations for flat symmetric structures having a specific shape of nonlinearities and a clear slow/fast decomposition between flexural and in-plane modes, the treatment of the quadratic nonlinearity makes the predictions different in the case of curved structures such as arches and shells. In the more general case, normal form approach appears preferable since it allows correct predictions of a number of important nonlinear features, including for example the hardening/softening behaviour, whatever the relationships between slave and master coordinates are.

description: We identify through their X-ray spectra one certain (W37) and two probable (W17 and X4) quiescent low-mass X-ray binaries (qLMXBs) containing neutron stars in a long Chandra X-ray exposure of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae, in addition to the two previously known qLMXBs. W37's spectrum is dominated by a blackbody-like component consistent with radiation from the hydrogen atmosphere of a 10 km neutron star. W37's lightcurve shows strong X-ray variability which we attribute to variations in its absorbing column depth, and eclipses with a probable 3.087 hour period. For most of our exposures, W37's blackbody-like emission (assumed to be from the neutron star surface) is almost completely obscured, yet some soft X-rays (of uncertain origin) remain. Two additional candidates, W17 and X4, present X-ray spectra dominated by a harder component, fit by a power-law of photon index ~1.6-3. An additional soft component is required for both W17 and X4, which can be fit with a 10 km hydrogen-atmosphere neutron star model. X4 shows significant variability, which may arise from either its power-law or hydrogen-atmosphere spectral component. Both W17 and X4 show rather low X-ray luminosities, Lx(0.5-10 keV)~5*10^{31} ergs/s. All three candidate qLMXBs would be difficult to identify in other globular clusters, suggesting an additional reservoir of fainter qLMXBs in globular clusters that may be of similar numbers as the group of previously identified objects. The number of millisecond pulsars inferred to exist in 47 Tuc is less than 10 times larger than the number of qLMXBs in 47 Tuc, indicating that for typical inferred lifetimes of 10 and 1 Gyr respectively, their birthrates are comparable.

Symmetries in the hyperbolic Hilbert space

description: The Cl(3,0) Clifford algebra is represented with the commutative ring of hyperbolic numbers H. The canonical form of the Poincare mass operator defined in this vector space corresponds to a sixteen-dimensional structure. This conflicts with the natural perception of a four-dimensional space-time. The assumption that the generalized mass operator is an hermitian observable forms the basis of a mathematical model that decomposes the full sixteen-dimensional symmetry of the hyperbolic Hilbert space. The result is a direct product of the Lorentz group, the four-dimensional space-time, and the hyperbolic unitary group SU(4,H), which is considered as the internal symmetry of the relativistic quantum state. The internal symmetry is equivalent to the original form of the Pati-Salam model.

description: Cosmic inflation, which describes an accelerated expansion of the early Universe, yields the most successful predictions regarding temperature anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Nevertheless, the precise origin of the primordial perturbations and their quantum-to-classical transition is still an open issue. The continuous spontaneous localization model (CSL), in the cosmological context, might be used to provide a solution to the mentioned puzzles by considering an objective reduction of the inflaton wave function. In this work, we calculate the primordial power spectrum at the next leading order in the Hubble flow functions that results from applying the CSL model to slow roll inflation within the semiclassical gravity framework. We employ the method known as uniform approximation along with a second order expansion in the Hubble flow functions. We analyze some features in the CMB temperature and primordial power spectra that could help to distinguish between the standard prediction and our approach.

Then we show how to use loop groups and hypercohomology to write explicit hamiltonians. We work on an arbitrary complete algebraic curve, the structure group is an arbitrary semisimiple group.

description: The ability of the former voluntary price reporting system to generate market transparency in U.S. livestock markets was called into question by producer groups and academic research prior to the new federal system of mandatory price reporting being implemented. The market transparency issue is investigated by comparing price data collected from the former AMS voluntary price reporting system to mandatory price reporting data for live slaughter steers collected by the State of South Dakota before the advent of the new federal system. The relationship between a set of public price report series and the South Dakota mandatory price series is analyzed using cointegration techniques. The empirical findings indicate a strong long-run and short-run integrated relationship between the mandatory price series and a majority of the selected public price reports. We conclude that in the cash market for live steers in South Dakota, the former voluntary price reporting system did foster market transparency and aided in the price discovery process.

description: The 2000 Illinois Vineyard Survey showed 400+ acres of grapes compared to 181 two years earlier. There are 28 wineries with eight more scheduled to open - up from four in the 1980s. State government has allocated $500,000 annually to an Illinois Grape and Wine Resource Council in part to boost the state's economy. We address the need to quantify benefits by creating detailed budgets for the winegrape and wine industries. These become part of a state-wide input-output model (IMPLAN). Results indicate that grape growing has an output multiplier of 1.90. Winemaking, which includes out-of-state grapes has an output multiplier of 1.76.
Detecting topological order in a ground state wave function

description: A large class of topological orders can be understood and classified using the string-net condensation picture. These topological orders can be characterized by a set of data (N, d_i, F^{ijk}_{lmn}, δ_{ijk}). We describe a way to detect this kind of topological order using only the ground state wave function. The method involves computing a quantity called the ``topological entropy'' which directly measures the quantum dimension D = \sum_i d^2_i.

description: Producers’ preferences for cottonseed with respect to price, seed type, yield, and fiber quality are examined by a willingness-to-pay approach via mail surveys. Results indicate a positive willingness to pay (WTP) for technology relative to conventional cottonseed, and WTP increases with the level of technology. Yield and quality also show a positive WTP. Larger farms have a higher WTP for technology, and farms with more farm labor have a lower WTP for technology. These results suggest economies of size in technology adoption (biotechnology is not size-neutral) and that labor and biotechnology are direct substitutes.

description: This study estimates the contribution of both urban-rural fringe location and lake proximity on residential property values in three upstate counties of South Carolina through estimation of spatial hedonic housing price models. Location in the urban fringe and the urban-rural interface are found to have a positive impact on residential housing values relative to either urban or more rural locations. Lakes in the upstate contribute positively to housing values to the extent that the house has a view of a lake, lake access, or lake frontage.

description: The impact of an urban growth boundary (UGB) on land development in Knox County, TN is estimated via two-stage probit and neural-network models. The insignificance of UGB variable in the two-stage probit model and more visible development patterns in the western part of Knoxville and the neighboring town of Farragut during the post-UGB period in both models suggest that the UGB has not curtailed urban sprawl. Although the network model is found to be a viable alternative to more conventional discrete choice approach for improving the predictability of land development, it is at the cost of evaluating marginal effects.

description: A stochastic production frontier model was estimated to provide standard measurement of technical efficiency of the dual-purpose cattle system located in Zulia State, Venezuela. This system is based on local and low-cost inputs, but has been considered to be inefficient because of its low partial productivity indices when compared with those used in developed countries. Results indicate that the efficiency of this system is reasonably high, downplaying the general idea of inefficiency. Likewise, the efficiency of this system has the potential for improvement through public policies and managerial decisions based on the determinants of technical efficiency.

description: A resistively detected NMR technique was used to probe the two-dimensional electron gas in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well. The spin-lattice relaxation rate $(1/T_{1})$ was extracted at near complete filling of the first Landau level by electrons. The nuclear spin of $^{75}$As is found to relax much more efficiently with $T\to 0$ and when a well developed quantum Hall state with $R_{xx}\simeq 0$ occurs. The data show a remarkable correlation between the nuclear spin relaxation and localization. This suggests that the magnetic ground state near complete filling of the first Landau level may contain a lattice of topological spin texture, i.e. a Skyrmion crystal.

description: Pulse wave measurements provide vital information in medical diagnosis. For this reason, a measurement system is developed for determining the transient time of the pulse wave between the heart and the ear. To detect pressure variations in the sealed ear canal, caused by the arriving pulse wave, an in-ear sensor is developed which uses heart sounds as time reference. Furthermore, for extracting the heart sounds from the pressure measurements and calculating the pulse wave transient time, a MATLAB-based algorithm is described. An embedded microcontroller based measurement board is presented, which realizes an interface between the sensor and the computer for signal processing.
