Neutrino trapping and accretion models for Gamma-Ray Bursts

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Many models of Gamma Ray Bursts invoke a central engine consisting of a black hole of a few solar masses accreting matter from a disk at a rate of a fraction to a few solar masses per second. Popham et al. and Narayan et al. have shown that, for Mdot >~ 0.1 Msun/s, accretion proceeds via neutrino cooling and neutrinos can carry away a significant amount of energy from the inner regions of the disks. We improve on these calculations by including a simple prescription for neutrino transfer and neutrino opacities in such regions. We find that the flows become optically thick to neutrinos inside a radius R~6-40R_s for Mdot in the range of 0.1 -10 Msun/s, where R_s is the black hole Schwarzchild radius. Most of the neutrino emission comes from outside this region and, the neutrino luminosity stays roughly constant at a value L_ν ~ 10^{53} erg/s. We show that, for Mdot > 1 Msun/s, neutrinos are sufficiently trapped that energy advection becomes the dominant cooling mechanism in the flow. These results imply that neutrino annihilation in hyperaccreting black holes is an inefficient mechanism for liberating large amounts of energy. Extraction of rotational energy by magnetic processes remains the most viable mechanism.

Our high temperature estimates of these quantities, which enter into the small field expansion of the effective potential for a 3d scalar field at the IR fixed point or, equivalently, in the critical equation of state of the 3d Ising model universality class, are compared with recent results obtained by renormalization group methods, strong coupling, stochastic simulations as well as previous high temperature expansions.

Gravoelectromagnetic approach to the gravitational Faraday rotation in stationary spacetimes

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: Using the 1+3 formulation of stationary spacetimes we show, in the context of gravoelectromagnetism, that the plane of the polarization of light rays passing close to a black hole undergoes a rotation. We show that this rotation has the same integral form as the usual Faraday effect, i.e. it is proportional to the integral of the component of the gravomagnetic field along the propagation path. We apply this integral formula to calculate the Faraday rotation induced by the Kerr and NUT spaces using the quasi-Maxwell form of the vacuum Einstein equations.

description: Multiple sclerosis is a neurological disorder in which the myelin sheaths of axons are damaged by the immune response. We report here a three-dimensional structural analysis of brain and spinal cord tissues of a mouse model of multiple sclerosis, known as experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). EAE-induced mice were raised with or without administration of fingolimod, which is used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Brains and spinal cords dissected from the EAE mice were lyophilized so as to reconstitute the intrinsic contrast of tissue elements, such as axons, in X-ray images. Three-dimensional structures of the brain hemispheres and spinal cords of the EAE mice were visualized with synchrotron radiation microtomography. Microtomographic cross sections reconstructed from the X-ray images revealed dilation of capillary vessels and vacuolation in the spinal cord of the EAE mice. Vacuolation was also observed in the cerebellum, suggesting that the neuroinflammatory response progressed in the brain. The vessel networks and vacuolation lesions in the spinal cords were modelled by automatically tracing the three-dimensional image in order to analyze the tissue structures quantitatively. The results of the analysis indicated that the distribution of vacuolations was not uniform but three-dimensionally localized. The mean vessel diameter showed a linear correlation with the clinical score, indicating that vasodilation is relevant to paralysis severity in the disease model. We suggest that vasodilation and vacuolation are related with neurological symptoms of multiple sclerosis.

The aphanisis of the Subject: Viewing the Absence in the Art of AIDS
Creators: name: Sampatakakis, George
Publisher: name: Gramma: Journal of Theory and Criticism
Year: 2017
Subjects: performance; AIDS; audience

description: Spectatorship is a dialogue with cultural expectations, anxieties and morals. In many activist performances the viewers struggle to come to terms with what is presented onstage either aesthetically, or morally. Accordingly, the art of AIDS is a great paradigm of social struggle which produced works of “high” art (in the sense of technically complex pieces of work). Moreover, early AIDS art publicly exposed the socially intolerable and the morally unacceptable, precisely because the works of art were “infected” with a cultural capital of unbearable otherness and, for some, “abnormality.” The aim of this paper is to examine a common aesthetic technique in the art of AIDS, which is to present the acting subject in limbo between appearance and disappearance, presence and absence as a metaphor for an upcoming death/aphanisis that must be previewed and witnessed. The pieces that are going to be discussed are: the last self-portrait of Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989); the last self-portrait of David Wojnarowicz (1954-1992) and his theory on the artist’s sight; and the work of the Japanese artist collective Dumb Type, in which the performers are always seen to be absorbed by the media of their art. The paper will furthermore attempt to draw some general conclusions regarding spectatorship and the fading of the subject in contemporary performance art.

description: This study systematically compares the surface polishing performance and finishing results of the following two different electrolytic plasma polishing technologies on stainless steel AISI 316L: (i) plasma electrolytic polishing (PEP) and (ii) plasma electrolytic polishing jet (PEP-Jet). The two techniques are compared against an industrial standard polishing method, electropolishing (EP). For comparable energy density consumption, the samples treated with the PEP-Jet technique showed the highest removal rate, up to three times less than the initial roughness, resulting in the highest surface roughness reduction from Sa = 249 nm to Sa = 81 nm. Microstructure characterization of samples treated using PEP-Jet also showed well-defined crystalline grain boundaries with a distinct appearance of predominantly inter-crystalline structures within individual grains, which is uncommon with EP techniques. The surfaces treated using PEP-Jet exhibited the lowest corrosion rate of 6.79×10−5 mm/year, and no signs of areal corrosion were detected in the performed corrosion tests in contrast with the other samples and their respective treatments. The comparative analysis revealed that the high ionic current delivered by the electrolyte jet flow in the PEP-Jet process effectively stabilizes the plasma at the contact zone, thereby enhancing the plasma polishing of austenitic stainless steel samples. The efficacy of this method has been demonstrated in terms of reducing energy consumption and enhancing corrosion resistance in comparison with (PEP) and (EP) as state-of-the-art processes in corrosive environments of high-alloyed steel.

In/Sanity as a Means of Repoliticization for British “New Political Writing”
Creators: name: Ziaka, Katerina
Publisher: name: Gramma: Journal of Theory and Criticism
Year: 2017
Subjects: British political theatre; psychopathology; violence

description: Within the tumultuous and pressing context of the new millennium, in Britain there has been an upsurge of “New Political Writing” and the revival of interest in writing plays with clearer political focus as regards specific ethical and socio-political issues. In other words, there is a movement towards explicit political engagement and many British playwrights demonstrate eagerness to resist the dehumanizing impositions of the current world and the British subculture of violence and immorality and to retrace ethical, social, ethnic and national values. This paper explores the striking conjunction of the new political agenda with mental illness in so many of the plays written in the significant decade of the 2000s and seeks to shed light into the ethical, and socio-political ramifications it entails both for the field of drama and for the field of psychopathology. The discussion will focus on how this body of new British writing which draws on the field of psychopathology constitutes a reflection of the pathology of contemporary British society as well as of the changed identity of political British theatre but also an effort to create room for pluralistic dialectics aiming at a change of the audience’s consciousness. The presentation will demonstrate how subversive representations of insanity on the contemporary stage become an aesthetically and theoretically rich and convenient tool for articulating political concerns and criticism and will highlight the use of the phenomenology and scientific discourse of mental illness as a means to articulate a differentiated political language, a middle ground of “repoliticization.”

description: Im letzten Drittel des 20. Jahrhunderts adoptierten Schweizer Ehepaare über 2000 Kinder aus Indien. Die Autorinnen zeigen anhand der Kantone Zürich und Thurgau exemplarisch auf, wie indische Babys und Kleinkinder zwischen 1973 und 2002 in die Schweiz vermittelt, zur Pflege aufgenommen und adoptiert wurden. Sie folgen dabei dem Weg der Kinder, der bei den leiblichen und meist unverheirateten Müttern in Indien beginnt. Sie beleuchten die Umstände der Zeugung, der Geburt, der Weggabe und der Aufnahme der Kinder in der Schweiz vor dem Hintergrund der Rechtspraxis bei internationalen Adoptionen im Herkunfts- und Aufnahmeland. Die Autorinnen haben in Indien und in der Schweiz zahlreiche Gespräche mit adoptierten Personen, Adoptiveltern, am Verfahren beteiligten Fachpersonen sowie weiteren Expertinnen und Experten geführt. Sie rollen mit ihrem transnationalen Ansatz ein bisher weitgehend unbekanntes Kapitel der Geschichte der Fremdplatzierung auf und geben Einblick in ein komplexes Geflecht, das von Armut, sozialen Stigmata, von unerfülltem Kinderwunsch, von kommerziellen Interessen, einer fragwürdigen Rechtspraxis und mangelhaftem Kinderschutz geprägt war. Die vorliegende Untersuchung wertet erstmals umfangreiches Material aus Schweizer Archiven und Adoptionsdossiers aus und zeigt: Bei der Adoption ihres Kindes in der Schweiz blieben die indischen Mütter meist unbekannt und ihre Zustimmungserklärung fehlte.

description: Graph sampling addresses the problem of selecting a node subset in a graph to collect samples, so that a K-bandlimited signal can be reconstructed in high fidelity. Assuming an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) noise model, minimizing the expected mean square error (MMSE) leads to the known A-optimality criterion for graph sampling, which is expensive to compute and difficult to optimize. In this paper, we propose an augmented objective based on Neumann series that well approximates the original criterion and is amenable to greedy optimization. Specifically, we show that a shifted A-optimal criterion can be equivalently written as a function of an ideal low-pass (LP) graph filter, which in turn can be approximated efficiently via fast graph Fourier transform (FGFT). Minimizing the new objective, we select nodes greedily without large matrix inversions using a matrix inverse lemma. Further, for the dynamic network case where node availability varies across time, we propose an extended sampling strategy that replaces offline samples one-by-one in the selected set. For signal reconstruction, we propose an accompanied biased signal recovery strategy that reuses the approximated filter from sampling. Experiments show that our reconstruction is more robust to large noise than the least square (LS) solution, and our sampling strategy far outperforms several existing schemes.
“Up in the War Zone Ozone Zany Grey”: Caryl Churchill’s Theatrical Landscapes of Terror, Pain and Ecological Destruction
Creators: name: Suwalska-Kołecka, Anna
Publisher: name: Gramma: Journal of Theory and Criticism
Year: 2017
Subjects: theatre; ecological destruction; global conflict

description: Caryl Churchill’s plays are like a highly sensitive barometer of knotty problems that beset a modern man, be it most recently human cloning in A Number (2004) or the history of Israel in Seven Jewish Children (2009). Her political commitment makes her give voice to the ones whose voices have been deliberately silenced: the vulnerable, the victimized and the powerless. Yet the playwright’s creative imagination conjures up the worlds that thrive on theatrical experimentation and are permeated with a sense of ambiguity. As such, the construction of the dramatic worlds complicates the formulation of definitive judgments and dismisses the possibility of easy solutions. However, despite her aversion to simple polemics, the dramatic worlds Churchill creates wield enormous power over her audiences and leave them in a state of heightened awareness. Therefore, the aim of this article is to analyze the construction of the dramatic worlds in Caryl Churchill’s The Skriker (1994) and Far Away (2000); it focuses on the ways in which Caryl Churchill interconnects the structure of the time and space continuums that she designs with the exploration of the moral and environmental implications of human action. Although the plays share the dystopian vision of ecological destruction and global conflict, Churchill, in her ingenious inventiveness, conjures up distinctly different worlds to make her prophesies. In both plays the realities Churchill creates are so compelling and evocative that a dire warning they sound must not be ignored.

description: The majority of transgender and gender-nonconforming people (TGNC) report negative experiences with doctors in the healthcare system. As there is little knowledge about the communication behaviour of doctors towards TGNC, this survey aimed to assess the self-reported trans-inclusive communication of doctors and their willingness to communicate trans-inclusively, as well as their self-perceived barriers to it. A mixed-methods survey was applied for this. Firstly, we measured self-reported trans-inclusive communication behaviour based on the CommTrans questionnaire. Based on this, the overall willingness, as well as self-perceived barriers (qualitative) to communication, were assessed. In total, N = 57 doctors took part in the survey. Most participants reported not introducing themselves using pronouns (79.4%). Of these, 61.4% said that they would not be able to do this in the future either. Perceived barriers were classified into the following eight categories: necessity, sample-dependency, habit, structural barriers in practice, uncertainties in dealing with the topic, limits of patient-centredness, gender as a binary concept, and transphobia. In summary, doctors in Germany show different degrees of trans-inclusive communication. It is likely that this has a negative effect on TGNC, their health and access to the healthcare system.
The Waning Politics in Slovak Theatre
Creators: name: Lacko, Ivan
Publisher: name: Gramma: Journal of Theory and Criticism
Year: 2017
Subjects: Slovak theatre; politics; aesthetics

description: After the political changes in 1989 endowed Slovakia with the prospect of a successful and effective economic transition, the country’s theatre scene boldly reflected the euphoria, which drove the society to a path where it could experiment, criticize and shift paradigms. Nonetheless, the artistic revolution of the 1990s (witnessing the advent of such innovative theatre ensembles as Stoka or GuNaGu) soon waned and gave way to a more commercial and politically benign theatre in the 21st century, trailed by the state-funded network of national theatres. This paper endeavors to examine how the dialectical relationship between state-funded national theatres and the fringe scene in Slovakia brought about a state in which political discourse and artistic originality became an inherent part of the independent theatre scene. While very few plays directly addressed the country’s political development after 1989, or the dynamically changing social power structures, many productions were intrinsically political in the way they challenged the specifically delineated system of art funding. For example, the aesthetic of the Stoka theatre (and its artistic successor SkRAT), bearing traces of the devised method reminiscent of the American radical theatres of the 1960s and 1970s (such as the Open Theater or the Living Theater), became an artistic channel used to subvert not only traditional ways of theatremaking, but also the long-established torpid system of art funding. This paper aims to trace the development of political theatre in Slovakia after 1989 and speculate about why the political engagement through theatre seems to be losing its sting.

description: Anticipating the low energy arrangements of atoms in space is an indispensable scientific task. Modern stochastic approaches to searching for these configurations depend on the optimisation of structures to nearby local minima in the energy landscape. In many cases these local minima are relatively high in energy, and inspection reveals that they are trapped, tangled, or otherwise frustrated in their descent to a lower energy configuration. Strategies have been developed which attempt to overcome these traps, such as classical and quantum annealing, basin/minima hopping, evolutionary algorithms and swarm based methods. Random structure search makes no attempt to avoid the local minima, and benefits from a broad and uncorrelated sampling of configuration space. It has been particularly successful in the first principles prediction of unexpected new phases of dense matter. Here it is demonstrated that by starting the structural optimisations in a higher dimensional space, or hyperspace, many of the traps can be avoided, and that the probability of reaching low energy configurations is much enhanced. Excursions into the extra dimensions are progressively eliminated through the application of a growing energetic penalty. This approach is tested on hard cases for random search - clusters, compounds, and covalently bonded networks. The improvements observed are most dramatic for the most difficult ones. Random structure search is shown to be typically accelerated by two orders of magnitude, and more for particularly challenging systems. This increase in performance is expected to benefit all approaches to structure prediction that rely on the local optimisation of stochastically generated structures.

description: Protagoras, Plato recounted, taught how to harness word and action and use them to make an effective contribution to the affairs of the City. Far beyond public speaking, this was an indictment to use performance and philosophy in tandem to insinuate public demands. On the 9th of October 2011, Slavoj Zizek joined fellow Protagorians at Occupy Wall Street in solidarity. He delivered a speech encouraging those assembled to keep going and was followed, on the 23rd of October, by Judith Butler who did the same. Both of these visiting philosophers were rather crudely hoisted onto a raised platform in front of protesters who repeated their words in unison as a means of amplification and in order to pass their messages to all present. A little over a month later an online journal – Theory & Event – published a supplement focusing on just this combination of contributions. In this paper I would like to consider The Occupy Movement’s rebellious representations of Protagoras’ indictment. Specifically, I would like to consider the geographies of occupied place and space and what power and knowledge is delivered and viewed in such formations. Spectatorship and the sharing-as-witness of politicized performance “happenings” seems to indicate a new performance form and yet, as early as the late Modern period (1910 – 1915) there are examples of art “happenings” offering similar anti-authoritarian contribution. So, is this theatricality new, or did this transnational performance collective occupy, not just land, but performance forms as well?

description: Bikesharing has gradually become one adopted sustainable transportation mode recent years to bring us many social, environmental, economic, and health-related benefits and rewards. There is increased research toward better understanding of bikesharing systems (BSS) in urban environments. However, our comprehension remains incomplete on the patterns and characteristics of BSS. In this paper, aiming to help improving sustainability in multimodal transportation through BSS, we perform a systematic data analysis to examine underlying patterns and characteristics of the system dynamics in a bikeshare network and to acquire implications of the patterns and characteristics for decision making. As a case study, we use trip history data from the Capital Bikeshare system in the Washington DC area and some additional data sources. The study covers seven important aspects of bikeshare transportation systems, which are respectively trip demand and flow, operating activities, use and idle times, trip purpose, origin-destination flows, mobility, and safety. For these aspects, by using appropriate statistical methods and geographic techniques, we investigate travel patterns and characteristics of BSS from data to evaluate the qualitative and quantitative impacts of the inputs from key stakeholders on main measures of effectiveness such as trip costs, mobility, safety, quality of service, and operational efficiency, where key stakeholders include road users, system operators, and city. We also disclose some new patterns and characteristics of BSS to advance the knowledge on travel behaviors. Finally, we briefly summarize our findings and discuss the implications of the patterns and characteristics for data-driven decision supports from the relations between BSS and key stakeholders for promoting bikeshare utilization and transforming urban transportation to be more sustainable.

Multiscale entanglement clusters at the many-body localization phase transition

description: We study numerically the formation of entanglement clusters across the many-body localization phase transition. We observe a crossover from strong many-body entanglement in the ergodic phase to weak local correlations in the localized phase, with contiguous clusters throughout the phase diagram. Critical states close to the transition have a structure compatible with fractal or multiscale-entangled states, characterized by entanglement at multiple levels: small strongly entangled clusters are weakly entangled together to form larger clusters. The critical point therefore features subthermal entanglement and a power-law distributed cluster size, while the localized phase presents an exponentially decreasing cluster distribution. These results are consistent with some of the recently proposed phenomenological renormalization-group schemes characterizing the many-body localized critical point, and may serve to constrain other such schemes.

Can we Conserve Music?
Creators: name: Gartmann, Thomas
Publisher: name: Routledge
Year: 2024

description: Can music be preserved at all? Why, in the first place, do we want to capture something as ephemeral as music? What exactly can be conserved and how? What makes the music? Is it the score? Is it the sonic result of its realization? Is it the process that leads to it? And how do these parameters relate to each other? What problems and challenges arise, and what solutions have been tried? To explain these various problems, we shall discuss them by taking examples from very different genres of music. For traditional music, such as a Beethoven sonata or a symphony and their interpretations, we shall also discuss the problem of different versions. One excursus here is devoted to self-playing pianos as a very special way of recording interpretations, another to the case of bootlegging (making secret, private recordings of operas, for example). The problem is different in the case of an improvisation concert by Keith Jarrett or by a free improvisation trio, in which any repetition of a unique event is considered a paradox. Finally, music concepts such as John Cage’s silent piece 4’33”, on the other hand, require different answers. There are nevertheless parallels, especially with improvisation.

description: In calf fattening, housing climate conditions are essential for optimal performance and welfare. Validated methods to measure the long-term housing climate are lacking. The present study investigated climate parameters for 14 weeks in Swiss calf fattening housing with two different ammonia (NH3) sensors: six stationary sensors (Dräger Polytron 8100) were installed at animal level and four mobile sensors (Dräger x-AM 5100) were attached to the calves’ heads. Temperature, relative humidity, and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations were recorded by two stationary data loggers (testo 160 IAQ). Data were analyzed descriptively, and 4 h mean values of maximum NH3 concentrations of mobile and stationary sensors were compared using the Wilcoxon test for paired data. The 4 h mean values of temperature, relative humidity, and CO2 concentrations and the 4 h mean values of maximum NH3 concentrations of stationary and mobile sensors were analyzed by ANOVA in two linear models. The overall 4 h mean of maximum NH3 concentrations ranged between 5.9–9.4 ppm for measurements of stationary sensors and between 11.3–14.7 ppm for measurements of mobile sensors. The NH3 concentrations measured by mobile sensors showed significantly higher peak values and more fluctuations. Additionally, an interaction effect was observed between the NH3 concentrations measured by either sensor and CO2 concentrations (p < 0.01 (mobile sensors); p < 0.0001 (stationary sensors), temperature values (p < 0.0001 (both sensors)), and relative humidity (p < 0.0001 (both sensors)). The measurements of the implemented method showed that corresponding housing climate parameters fluctuated strongly, and NH3 reached high peak values. Validated measurement methods might allow for a detailed assessment of the housing climate in practice, and for further research on suitable management methods for housing climate optimization in the future.
The “Ayde of his Muses?”The Renaissance of John Florio and William Shakespeare
Creators: name: Lester, Jeremy
Publisher: name: Gramma: Journal of Theory and Criticism
Year: 2017

description: Jeremy Lester’s essay focuses on John Florio, arguing a far deeper implication of the prominent linguist and translator of Montaigne in the production of the Shakespearean oeuvre than previously thought. Although known by specialists, until not long ago, Florio was considered a secondary figure within the intellectual and artistic panorama of the Elizabethan and Jacobean times. After examining closely the life and works of Florio in accordance with Lamberto Tassinari’s book John Florio. The Man Who Was Shakespeare (Giano Books, 2009), Lester discusses the case of British scholar Saul Frampton of Westminster University who in two feature articles published in the London Guardian in July and August, 2013, asserted that John Florio was the editor-in-chief of Shakespeare’s collected plays (the First Folio, 1623). According to Frampton, this role allowed him to “censor,”“change” or “supplement” the original works of Shakespeare. Ben Jonson, the main instigator in the publication of the First Folio, was also a close friend and devotee of Florio, of whom he states in a dedication to a copy of his Volpone, that he was “an Ayde of his Muses.” Analyzing Tassinari’s theory, Lester comes to the conclusion that Florio, more than the editor and “Ayde” to the Bard, has a very good claim to be considered the author under the pseudonym Shakespeare. Tassinari’s book, now translated into French with the title John Florio alias Shakespeare (Le Bord de L’Eau, 2016), is sparking an animated debate within the French media.

description: In Minkowski flat space-time, it is perceived that time inversion is unitary rather than antiunitary, with energy being a time vector changing sign under time inversion. The Dirac equation, in the case of electromagnetic interaction, is not invariant under unitary time inversion, giving rise to a ``Klein paradox''. To render unitary time inversion invariance, a nonlinear wave equation is constructed, in which the ``Klein paradox'' disappears. In the case of Coulomb interaction, the revised nonlinear equation can be linearized to give energy solutions for Hydrogen-like ions without singularity when nuclear number $Z>137$, showing a reversed energy order pending for experimental tests such as Zeeman effects. In non-relativistic limit, this nonlinear equation reduces to nonlinear schrödinger equation with soliton-like solutions. Moreover, particle conjugation and electron-proton scattering with a nonsingular current-potential interaction are discussed. Finally the explicit form of gauge function is found, the uniqueness of Lorentz gauge is proven and the Lagrangian density of quantum electrodynamics (QED) is revised as well. The implementation of unitary time inversion leads to the ultimate derivation of nonlinear QED.
