description: We present a new, on-the-fly photon flux and absorption tracer algorithm designed to directly measure the contribution of different source populations to the metagalactic UV background and to the ionisation fraction of gas in the Universe. We use a suite of multifrequency radiation hydrodynamics simulations that are carefully calibrated to reproduce a realistic reionization history and galaxy properties at $z \ge 6$, to disentangle the contribution of photons emitted by different mass haloes and by stars with different metallicities and ages to the UV background during reionization. While at very early cosmic times low mass, metal poor haloes provide most of the LyC photons, their contribution decreases steadily with time. At $z = 6$ it is the photons emitted by massive systems (${\rm M_{halo}}/{\rm M_\odot} > 10^{10} \, {\rm h ^{-1}}$) and by the metal enriched stars ($10^{-3} < Z/Z_{\rm \odot} < 10^{-1.5}$) that provide the largest contribution to the ionising UV background. We demonstrate that there are large variations in the escape fraction depending on the source, with the escape fraction being highest ($\sim 45-60\%$) for photons emitted by the oldest stars that penetrate into the IGM via low opacity channels carved by the ionising photons and supernova from younger stars. Before HII regions begin to overlap, the photoionisation rate strongly fluctuates between different, isolated HII bubbles, depending on the embedded ionising source, which we suggest may result in spatial variations in the properties of dwarf galaxies.

description: Two-particle Green's functions and the vertex functions play a critical role in theoretical frameworks for describing strongly correlated electron systems. However, numerical calculations at two-particle level often suffer from large computation time and massive memory consumption. We derive a general expansion formula for the two-particle Green's functions in terms of an overcomplete representation based on the recently proposed "intermediate representation" basis. The expansion formula is obtained by decomposing the spectral representation of the two-particle Green's function. We demonstrate that the expansion coefficients decay exponentially, while all high-frequency and long-tail structures in the Matsubara-frequency domain are retained. This representation therefore enables efficient treatment of two-particle quantities and opens a route to the application of modern many-body theories to realistic strongly correlated electron systems.

Non-Markovian quantum-classical ratchet for ultrafast long-range electron-hole separation in condensed phases

description: In organic photovoltaic systems, a photogenerated molecular exciton in the donor domain dissociates into a hole and an electron at the donor/acceptor heterojunction, and subsequently separate into free charge carriers that can be extracted as photocurrents. The recombination of the once-separated electron and hole is a major loss mechanism in photovoltaic systems, which controls their performance. Hence, efficient photovoltaic systems need built-in ratchet mechanisms, namely, ultrafast charge separation and retarded charge recombination. In order to obtain insight into the internal working of the experimentally observed ultrafast long-range charge separation and protection against charge recombination, we theoretically investigate a potential ratchet mechanism arising from the combination of quantum delocalization and its destruction by performing numerically accurate quantum-dynamics calculations on a model system. It is demonstrated that the non-Markovian effect originating from the slow polaron formation strongly suppresses the electron transfer reaction back to the interfacial charge-transfer state stabilized at the donor/accepter interface and that it plays a critical role in maintaining the long-range electron--hole separation.

description: Binary adders are a core component of most digital processing circuitry, and thus much effort has been put forward to optimize them as much as possible, particularly regarding the performance, as measured by the latency of the adder circuitry. However, all of these optimizations are done within the context of a synchronous logic design. Asynchronous logic, in comparison, already has the built-in performance gain of achieving average-case performance, rather than the worst-case performance that synchronous logicis limited by. On the other hand, asynchronous logic requires additional circuitry, such as the Completion Detection (CD), and incurs overheads due to the used encoding for example.This thesis quantitatively analyzes the performance, area usage, and complexity, expressed as the number of nets in the design, of a select group of adder designs, each in a synchronous and an asynchronous variant. These results were obtained by way of simulation using state-of-the-art simulation tools. The designs themselves were implemented in VHDL on the basis of an open cell library. Based on these results extensive comparisons of the noted characteristics were made, which highlight the relative strengths and weaknesses of the implementations.

description: SN 1987A observations have been used to place constraints on the interactions between standard model particles and unparticles. In this study we calculate the energy loss from the supernovae core through scalar, pseudo scalar, vector, pseudo vector unparticle emission from nuclear bremsstrahlung for degenerate nuclear matter interacting through one pion exchange. In order to examine the constraints on $d_{\cal U}=1$ we considered the emission of scalar, pseudo scalar, vector, pseudo vector and tensor through the pair annihilation process $e^+e^-\to {\cal U} γ$. In addition we have re-examined other pair annihilation processes. The most stringent bounds on the dimensionless coupling constants for $d_{\cal U} =1$ and $Λ_{\cal U}= m_Z$ are obtained from nuclear bremsstrahlung process for the pseudo scalar and pseudo-vector couplings $\bigl|λ^{\cal P}_{0,1}\bigr|\leq 4\times 10^{-11}$ and for tensor interaction, the best limit on dimensionless coupling is obtained from $e^+ e^-\to {\cal U} γ$ and we get $\bigl|λ^{\cal T}\bigr| \leq 6\times 10^{-6}$.

description: Acoustic segregation is a way to reduce competition and allows for species coexistence within anuran communities. Thus, separation in at least one acoustic niche dimension is expected, which also contributes to achieving effective communication among frogs. Here we studied an assemblage of five terrestrial egg-laying anuran species, all in the genus Eleutherodactylus, in a montane rainforest in eastern Cuba. Our aim was to determine if partitioning exists between these species in any dimension (time, signal frequency or space) of the acoustic niche. The studied assemblage had the following characteristics: (1) there was one diurnal species, two species with calling activity throughout the day and two species that call at night; (2) only two species overlapped in call frequencies and most had different calls, both in terms of dominant frequencies and in temporal characteristics; and (3) males of the species that overlapped in vocalizing time or signal frequency used different calling microhabitats or heights. This study provides evidence for the acoustic niche hypothesis in anurans, showing low probabilities of interference in sound communication among these frogs. The five species were separated in at least one of the three acoustic dimensions (calling time, frequency and site) as it occurs in mainland communities with more sympatric species of several genera. Conversely, species in single-genus communities studied in Puerto Rico overlapped completely in calling times. This seems to be due to the higher number of sympatric species at our site.

description: Results that illuminate the physical interpretation of states of nonperturbative quantum gravity are obtained using the recently introduced loop variables. It is shown that: i) While local operators such as the metric at a point may not be well-defined, there do exist {\it non-local} operators, such as the area of a given 2-surface, which can be regulated diffeomorphism invariantly and which are finite {\it without} renormalization; ii)there exist quantum states which approximate a given flat geometry at large scales, but such states exhibit a discrete structure at the Planck scale; iii) these results are tied together by the fact that the spectra of the operators that measure the areas of surfaces are quantized in integral units of the Planck area.

description: Here we concisely review the nonminimal coupling dynamics of a single scalar field in the context of purely affine gravity and extend the study to multifield dynamics. The coupling is performed via an affine connection and its associated curvature without referring to any metric tensor. The latter arises a posteriori and it may gain an emergent character like the scale of gravity. What is remarkable in affine gravity is the transition from nonminimal to minimal couplings which is realized by only field redefinition of the scalar fields. Consequently, the inflationary models gain a unique description in this context where the observed parameters, like the scalar tilt and the tensor-to-scalar ratio, are invariant under field reparametrization. Overall, gravity in its affine approach is expected to reveal interesting and rich phenomenology in cosmology and astroparticle physics.

description: The problem of solving perturbatively the equations describing the evolution of self-gravitating collisionless matter in an expanding universe considerably simplifies when directly formulated in terms of the gravitational and velocity potentials: the problem can be solved {\it exactly}, rather than approximately, even for cosmological models with arbitrary density parameter $Ω$. The Eulerian approach we present here allows to calculate the higher-order moments of the initially Gaussian density and velocity fields: in particular, we compute the gravitationally induced skewness of the density and velocity-divergence fields for any value of $Ω$, confirming the extremely weak $Ω$-dependence of the skewness previously obtained via Lagrangian perturbation theory. Our results show that the separability assumption of higher-order Eulerian perturbative solutions is restricted to the Einstein-de Sitter case only.

description: 1T-TaS$_2$ is a cluster Mott insulator on the triangular lattice with 13 Ta atoms forming a star of David cluster as the unit cell. We derive a two dimensional XXZ spin-1/2 model with four-spin ring exchange term to describe the effective low energy physics of a monolayer 1T-TaS$_2$, where the effective spin-1/2 degrees of freedom arises from the Kramers degenerate spin-orbital states on each star of David. A large scale density matrix renormalization group simulation is further performed on this effective model and we find a gapless spin liquid phase with spinon Fermi surface at moderate to large strength region of four-spin ring exchange term. All peaks in the static spin structure factor are found to be located on the "$2k_F$" surface of half-filled spinon on the triangular lattice. Experiments to detect the spinon Fermi surface phase in 1T-TaS$_2$ are discussed.

description: Pistons are elementary components of a wide variety of thermal engines, allowing to convert input fuel into rotational motion. Here, we propose a single-piston engine where the rotational degree of freedom is effectively realized by the flux of a Josephson loop -- a quantum rotor -- while the working volume corresponds to the effective length of a superconducting resonator. Our autonomous design implements a Carnot cycle, relies solely on standard thermal baths and can be implemented with circuit quantum electrodynamics. We demonstrate how the engine is able to extract a net positive work via its built-in synchronicity using a filter cavity as an effective valve, eliminating the need for external control.

description: We present the Green-Schwarz $\s\-$model coupled to the $N=1$ {\it {supersymmetric}} Yang-Mills and supergravity in a four-dimensional space-time with the indefinite signature $(+,+,-,-)$. We first confirm the $\k\-$invariance of the Green-Schwarz action, and show that all the $\b\-$functions for the backgrounds vanish consistently after the use of their superfield equations. Subsequently, we inspect the supersymmetric {\it self-duality} conditions, that have been developed in our previous paper on the Yang-Mills and supergravity backgrounds. Remarkably, the Majorana-Weyl spinor dictating the {\it supersymmetric self-duality} conditions is consistent with the couplings of Green-Schwarz superstring. Such Green-Schwarz superstring is supposed to be the underlying theory of the {\it supersymmetric self-dual} Yang-Mills theory, which is conjectured to generate {\it all} exactly soluble supersymmetric systems in lower dimensions.

description: A large value of the leptonic Dirac CP phase can arise from broken democracy, where the mass matrices are democratic up to small random perturbations. Such perturbations are a natural consequence of broken residual $\mathbb S_3$ symmetries that dictate the democratic mass matrices at leading order. With random perturbations, the leptonic Dirac CP phase has a higher probability to attain a value around $\pm π/2$. Comparing with the anarchy model, broken democracy can benefit from residual $\mathbb S_3$ symmetries, and it can produce much better, realistic predictions for the mass hierarchy, mixing angles, and Dirac CP phase in both quark and lepton sectors. Our approach provides a general framework for a class of models in which a residual symmetry determines the general features at leading order, and where, in the absence of other fundamental principles, the symmetry breaking appears in the form of random perturbations.

description: Geologic carbon dioxide (CO2) storage is one approach for mitigating concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere that are caused by stationary anthropogenic inputs. Injecting CO2 into the subsurface for long-term storage is an “engineered-natural system”. This engineered-natural system is complex, with potential interactions during CO2 injection between CO2 and other reservoir fluids and various components of the geologic system. The National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP) is an initiative within DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy that is improving the fundamental understanding of the complex science behind engineered-natural systems and is developing the risk assessment tools that are needed for safe, permanent geologic CO2 storage. The NRAP technical approach entails an iterative modeling process that integrates component models into a system model which may then be used to provide quantitative assessments of potential risks and to design monitoring protocols that will effectively monitor risks at a geologic CO2 storage project. A theme throughout all phases of the NRAP approach is quantifying uncertainty and variability. The focus of this dissertation is to contribute statistical methods and/or approaches for quantifying uncertainty and variability with respect to both monitoring and performance at geologic CO2 storage sites. These methods are intended for future use by NRAP or other geologic CO2 storage practitioners and may be incorporated into broader modeling approaches. However, the results and contributions from this work extend beyond geologic CO2 storage and apply to other subsurface engineered-natural systems.

description: Efficient optical classical and quantum information processing imposes on light novel requirements: chirality with low threshold non-linearities. In this work we demonstrate a chiral lasing from an optical modes due to emerging photonic Rashba-Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling (SOC). For this purpose we developed a new electrically tunable device based on an optical cavity filled with birefringent liquid crystal (LC) and perovskite crystals. Our novel method for the growth of single crystals of CsPbBr$_3$ inorganic perovskite in polymer templates allows us to reach a strong light-matter coupling regime between perovskite excitons and cavity modes, and induce polariton condensation. The sensitivity of the LC to external electric fields lets us to tune the condensate energy in situ and induce synthetic SOC. This shapes the condensate between a single linearly polarized or two circularly polarized separated in momentum, emitting coherent light. The difference in the condensation thresholds between the two SOC regimes can be used to switch on and off the chiral condensate emission with a voltage.

description: Next-generation systems are anticipated to be digital platforms supporting innovative services with rapidly changing traffic patterns. To cope with this dynamicity in a cost-efficient manner, operators need advanced service management capabilities such as those provided by NFV. NFV enables operators to scale network services with higher granularity and agility than today. For this end, automation is key. In search of this automation, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has defined a reference NFV framework that make use of model-driven templates called Network Service Descriptors (NSDs) to operate network services through their lifecycle. For the scaling operation, an NSD defines a discrete set of instantiation levels among which a network service instance can be resized throughout its lifecycle. Thus, the design of these levels is key for ensuring an effective scaling. In this article, we provide an overview of the automation of the network service scaling operation in NFV, addressing the options and boundaries introduced by ETSI normative specifications. We start by providing a description of the NSD structure, focusing on how instantiation levels are constructed. For illustrative purposes, we propose an NSD for a representative NS. This NSD includes different instantiation levels that enable different ways to automatically scale this NS. Then, we show the different scaling procedures the NFV framework has available, and how it may automate their triggering. Finally, we propose an ETSI-compliant workflow to describe in detail a representative scaling procedure. This workflow clarifies the interactions and information exchanges between the functional blocks in the NFV framework when performing the scaling operation.

description: The purpose of this report is two-fold. It is, first and foremost, a report on the results of a relatively small field investigation within a portion of the Los Pozos site. These recent investigations did not encounter buried archaeological features despite discovery of such in an immediately adjacent area during a previous project. Due to a gradual accumulation of substantial amounts of fieldwork over the past 20 years, the second part of this report is a compilation and synthesis of information about the alluvial geomorphology and past human land use practices. These interpretations, based on archaeological data, are both timely and potentially useful for understanding not only this small project, but also for planning future construction projects and archaeological undertakings.
Growth tradeoffs produce complex microbial communities on a single limiting resource

description: The relationship between the dynamics of a community and its constituent pairwise interactions is a fundamental problem in ecology. Higher-order ecological effects beyond pairwise interactions may be key to complex ecosystems, but mechanisms to produce these effects remain poorly understood. Here we show that higher-order effects can arise from variation in multiple microbial growth traits, such as lag times and growth rates, on a single limiting resource with no other interactions. These effects produce a range of ecological phenomena: an unlimited number of strains can exhibit multistability and neutral coexistence, potentially with a single keystone strain; strains that coexist in pairs do not coexist all together; and the champion of all pairwise competitions may not dominate in a mixed community. Since variation in multiple growth traits is ubiquitous in microbial populations due to pleiotropy and non-genetic variation, our results indicate these higher-order effects may also be widespread, especially in laboratory ecology and evolution experiments.
Testing for Lorentz Violation: Constraints on Standard-Model Extension Parameters via Lunar Laser Ranging

description: We present constraints on violations of Lorentz Invariance based on Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) data. LLR measures the Earth-Moon separation by timing the round-trip travel of light between the two bodies, and is currently accurate to a few centimeters (parts in $10^{11}$ of the total distance). By analyzing archival LLR data under the Standard-Model Extension (SME) framework, we derived six observational constraints on dimensionless SME parameters that describe potential Lorentz-violation. We found no evidence for Lorentz violation at the $10^{-6}$ to $10^{-11}$ level in these parameters.

Manifolds in random media: Beyond the variational approximation

description: In this paper we give a closed form expression for the $1/d$ corrections to the self-energy characterizing the correction function of a manifold in random media. This amounts to the first correction beyond the variational approximation. At this time we were able to evaluate this corrections in the high temperature ``phase'' of the notorious toy-model describing a classical particle subject to the influence of both a harmonic potential and a random potential. Although in this phase the correct solution is replica symmetric the calculation is non-trivial. The outcome is compared with previous analytical and numerical results. The corrections diverge at the ``transition'' temperature.

description: Defects in basal autophagy limit the nutrient supply from recycling of intracellular constituents. Despite our understanding of the pro-survival role of macroautophagy/autophagy, how nutrient deprivation, caused by compromised autophagy, affects oncogenic KRAS-driven tumor progression is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that conditional impairment of the autophagy gene Atg5 (atg5-KO) extends the survival of KRASG12V-driven tumor-bearing mice by 38%. atg5-KO tumors spread more slowly during late tumorigenesis, despite a faster onset. atg5-KO tumor cells displayed reduced mitochondrial function and increased mitochondrial fragmentation. Metabolite profiles indicated a deficiency in the nonessential amino acid asparagine despite a compensatory overexpression of ASNS (asparagine synthetase), key enzyme for de novo asparagine synthesis. Inhibition of either autophagy or ASNS reduced KRASG12V-driven tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, which was rescued by asparagine supplementation or knockdown of MFF (mitochondrial fission factor). Finally, these observations were reflected in human cancer-derived data, linking ASNS overexpression with poor clinical outcome in multiple cancers. Together, our data document a widespread yet specific asparagine homeostasis control by autophagy and ASNS, highlighting the previously unrecognized role of autophagy in suppressing the metabolic barriers of low asparagine and excessive mitochondrial fragmentation to permit malignant KRAS-driven tumor progression.
Coincidence limit and generalized interaction term structure in multigravity

description: Generalized structure of the interaction term of multigravity is analyzed in detail. The coincidence limit of any multigravity theory is defined and the compatibility equation for the interaction potential is derived which is studied in the weak perturbation limit of metric. The most general properties of the invariant volume and the scalar potential of multigravity are investigated. The general formula for multigravity invariant volume using three means (arithmetic, geometric and harmonic) is derived. The Pauli-Fierz mass term for bigravity in the weak field limit is obtained.

description: This document presents the results of archaeological monitoring for a residential rehabilitation project. The project involved the connection of a washing machine drain to the sewer line. LSD monitored ground-disturbing activities within the buffer zone surrounding an unnamed prehistoric canal projected to traverse the southwest corner of the project area. Field investigators examined exposed substrate for the presence of cultural deposits. No cultural resources were encountered.

description: We study high-energy $γ$-rays observed from Cyg X-3 by the Fermi Large Area Telescope and the 15-GHz emission observed by the Ryle Telescope and the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager. We measure the $γ$-ray spectrum averaged over strong flares much more accurately than before, and find it well modelled by Compton scattering of stellar radiation by relativistic electrons with the power law index of $\simeq$3.5 and a low-energy cutoff at the Lorentz factor of $\sim\!10^3$. We find a weaker spectrum in the soft spectral state, but only upper limits in the hard and intermediate states. We measure strong orbital modulation during the flaring state, well modelled by anisotropic Compton scattering of blackbody photons from the donor by jet relativistic electrons. We discover a weaker orbital modulation of the 15 GHz radio emission, which is well modelled by free-free absorption by the stellar wind. We then study cross-correlations between radio, $γ$-ray and X-ray emissions. We find the cross-correlation between the radio and $γ$-ray emissions peaks at a lag less than 1 d, while we detect a distinct radio lag of $\sim$50 d with respect to the soft X-rays in the soft spectral state.

description: Balanced territorial development is one of the key objectives of the rural development expenditure of the CAP. However, territorial aspects do not appear to be sufficiently considered in the policy design nor in allocation of funds. We used data on per capita EAFRD expenditures to evaluate correlations between and among NUTS2 regions. Global as well as local measures of spatial autocorrelation demonstrated a high spatial association as payments tend to be above average throughout the eastern part of the EU. The expenditure is increasingly positively associated with small farming, agricultural employment and investments, while relationship with organic production has weakened.
