description: OBJECTIVES: Previous literature showed that visual extinction and hemispatial neglect share common underlying mechanisms (Vuilleumier and Rafal, 2000), with common lesion patterns (Umarova et al., 2011). However, the relationship between visual extinction and hemispatial neglect is still not fully understood. In this study we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to identify brain regions underlying visual extinction in right-sided stroke patients with hemispatial neglect (N = 9) and related age-/gender-matched healthy control subjects (N = 25). MATERIALS AND METHODS: During fMRI, all participants were presented with a target stimulus (i.e., a black square of 2x2Â°; 10Â° apart from the central fixation point), that equiprobably appeared on either the left, right or both hemifields. Participants pressed one of three response buttons to indicate the hemifield(s) of target appearance, left, right, or bilateral. RESULTS: Control subjects were extremely accurate in target detection, irrespective of target side (left side: 99.5%, right side: 99.5%, bilateral: 97.8%). By contrast, neglect patients failed to detect bilateral targets (22.2% of accuracy). Importantly, â€oebilateralâ€• targets were perceived by neglect patients as â€oerightâ€• targets in the great majority of trials (56.3%). Moreover, neglect patients showed a decreased capability in detecting left (43.1%) vs. right targets (84.7%). The fMRI analysis revealed a greater involvement of the fronto-parietal cortex, bilaterally â€“ despite most pronounced on the left hemisphere â€“ in neglect patients as compared to healthy controls, irrespective of target side. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The increased activity of the fronto-parietal cortex appears to sustain the residual capabilities of neglect patients in detecting visual targets in the surrounding space. Overall, these findings provide new empirical evidence that visual extinction and hemispatial neglect are closely related, strengthening the notion that the lesion pattern underlying hemispatial neglect plays a major role in the phenomenology of visual extinction.

description: For a finite family $\mathcal{F}$ of fixed graphs let $R_k(\mathcal{F})$ be the smallest integer $n$ for which every $k$-coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ yields a monochromatic copy of some $F\in\mathcal{F}$. We say that $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-nice if for every graph $G$ with $χ(G)=R_k(\mathcal{F})$ and for every $k$-coloring of $E(G)$ there exists a monochromatic copy of some $F\in\mathcal{F}$. It is easy to see that if $\mathcal{F}$ contains no forest, then it is not $k$-nice for any $k$. It seems plausible to conjecture that a (weak) converse holds, namely, for any finite family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$ that contains at least one forest, and for all $k\geq k_0(\mathcal{F})$ (or at least for infinitely many values of $k$), $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-nice. We prove several (modest) results in support of this conjecture, showing, in particular, that it holds for each of the three families consisting of two connected graphs with 3 edges each and observing that it holds for any family $\mathcal{F}$ containing a forest with at most 2 edges. We also study some related problems and disprove a conjecture by Aharoni, Charbit and Howard regarding the size of matchings in regular 3-partite 3-uniform hypergraphs.

An Assessment of and Solution to the Intensity Diffusion Error Intrinsic to Short-Characteristic Radiative Transfer Methods

description: Radiative transfer coupled with highly realistic simulations of the solar atmosphere is routinely used to infer the physical properties underlying solar observations. Due to its computational efficiency, the method of short-characteristics is often employed, despite it introducing numerical diffusion as an interpolation artifact. In this paper, we quantify the effect of the numerical diffusion on the spatial resolution of synthesize emergent intensity images, and derive a closed form analytical model of the diffusion error as a function of viewing angle when using linear interpolation. We demonstrate that the image degradation adversely affects the comparison between simulated data and observations, for observations away from disk-center, unless the simulations are computed at much higher intrinsic resolution than the observations. We also show that the diffusion error is readily avoided by interpolating the simulation solution on a viewing-angle aligned grid prior to computing the radiative transfer. Doing this will be critical for comparisons with observations using the upcoming large aperture telescopes --- the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope and the European Solar Telescope.

description: We study the coarsening model (zero-temperature Ising Glauber dynamics) on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ (for $d \geq 2$) with an asymmetric tie-breaking rule. This is a Markov process on the state space $\{-1,+1\}^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$ of "spin configurations" in which each vertex updates its spin to agree with a majority of its neighbors at the arrival times of a Poisson process. If a vertex has equally many $+1$ and $-1$ neighbors, then it updates its spin value to $+1$ with probability $q \in [0,1]$ and to $-1$ with probability $1-q$. The initial state of this Markov chain is distributed according to a product measure with probability $p$ for a spin to be $+1$. In this paper, we show that for any given $p>0$, there exist $q$ close enough to 1 such that a.s. every spin has a limit of $+1$. This is of particular interest for small values of $p$, for which it is known that if $q=1/2$, a.s. all spins have a limit of $-1$. For dimension $d=2$, we also obtain near-exponential convergence rates for $q$ sufficiently large, and for general $d$, we obtain stretched exponential rates independent of $d$. Two important ingredients in our proofs are refinements of block arguments of Fontes-Schonmann-Sidoravicius and a novel exponential large deviation bound for the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process.

Perturbation theory for cosmologies with non-linear structure

description: The next generation of cosmological surveys will operate over unprecedented scales, and will therefore provide exciting new opportunities for testing general relativity. The standard method for modelling the structures that these surveys will observe is to use cosmological perturbation theory for linear structures on horizon-sized scales, and Newtonian gravity for non-linear structures on much smaller scales. We propose a two-parameter formalism that generalizes this approach, thereby allowing interactions between large and small scales to be studied in a self-consistent and well-defined way. This uses both post-Newtonian gravity and cosmological perturbation theory, and can be used to model realistic cosmological scenarios including matter, radiation and a cosmological constant. We find that the resulting field equations can be written as a hierarchical set of perturbation equations. At leading-order, these equations allow us to recover a standard set of Friedmann equations, as well as a Newton-Poisson equation for the inhomogeneous part of the Newtonian energy density in an expanding background. For the perturbations in the large-scale cosmology, however, we find that the field equations are sourced by both non-linear and mode-mixing terms, due to the existence of small-scale structures. These extra terms should be expected to give rise to new gravitational effects, through the mixing of gravitational modes on small and large scales - effects that are beyond the scope of standard linear cosmological perturbation theory. We expect our formalism to be useful for accurately modelling gravitational physics in universes that contain non-linear structures, and for investigating the effects of non-linear gravity in the era of ultra-large-scale surveys.

description: One of the cornerstones for topological quantum computations is the Majorana zero mode, which has been intensively searched in fractional quantum Hall systems and topological superconductors. Several recent works suggest that such an exotic mode can also exist in a one-dimensional (1D) interacting double-wire setup even without long-range superconductivity. A notable instability in these proposals comes from interchannel single-particle tunneling that spoils the topological ground state degeneracy. Here we show that a 1D Dirac semimetal (DSM) nanowire is an ideal number-conserving platform to realize such Majorana physics. By inserting magnetic flux, a DSM nanowire is driven into a 1D crystalline-symmetry-protected semimetallic phase. Interaction enables the emergence of boundary Majorana zero modes, which is robust as a result of crystalline symmetry protection. We also explore several experimental consequences of Majorana signals.

Renormalization-group evolution of new physics contributions to (semi)leptonic meson decays

description: We study the renormalization group evolution (RGE) of new physics contributions to (semi)leptonic charged-current meson decays, focusing on operators involving a chirality flip at the quark level. We calculate their evolution under electroweak and electromagnetic interactions, including also the three-loop QCD running and provide numerical formulas that allow us to connect the values of the corresponding Wilson coefficients from scales at the TeV to the low-energy scales. The large mixing of the tensor operator into the (pseudo)scalar ones has important phenomenological implications, such as the RGE of new physics bounds obtained from light quark decays or in $b\to c\ellν$ transitions. For instance, we study scenarios involving tensor effective operators, which have been proposed in the literature to address the $B$-decay anomalies, most notably those concerning the $R_{D^{(*)}}$ ratios. We conclude that the loop effects are important and should be taken into account in the analysis of these processes, especially if the operators are generated at an energy scale of $\sim 1$ TeV or higher.

description: We study a one-dimensional system that includes both a commensurate off-diagonal modulation of the hopping amplitude and an incommensurate, slowly varying diagonal on-site modulation. By using asymptotic heuristic arguments, we identify four closed form expressions for the mobility edges. We further study numerically the inverse participation ratio, the density of states and the Lyapunov exponent. The numerical results are in exact agreement with our theoretical predictions. Besides a metal-insulator transition driven by the strength of the slowly varying potential, another four insulator-metal transitions are found in this model as the energy is increased in magnitude from the band center ($E =0$) to the mobility edges ($\pm E_{c2}, \pm E_{c1}$).

description: Lepton-number violation can be induced by the exchange of an on-shell Majorana neutrino $N$ in semileptonic $|ΔL|=2$ decays of the $B_s$ meson, $B_s^0 \to P^-π^-μ^+ μ^+$ with $P=K, D_s$. We investigate the production of such a heavy sterile neutrino through these four-body $μ^+μ^+$ channels and explore the sensitivity that can be reached at the LHCb and CMS experiments. For heavy neutrino lifetimes of $τ_N$ = [1, 100, 1000] ps and integrated luminosities collected of 10 and 50 fb${}^{-1}$ at the LHCb and 30, 300, and 3000 fb${}^{-1}$ at the CMS, we find a significant sensitivity on branching fractions of the orders ${\rm BR}(B_s^0 \to K^- π^-μ^+ μ^+) \lesssim \mathcal{O}(10^{-9} - 10^{-8})$ and ${\rm BR}(B_s^0 \to D_s^- π^-μ^+ μ^+) \lesssim \mathcal{O}(10^{-8} - 10^{-7})$. In the kinematically allowed mass ranges of $m_N \in [0.25,4.77]$ GeV and $m_N \in [0.25,3.29]$ GeV, respectively, we exclude regions on the parameter space ($m_N,|V_{μN}|^{2}$) associated with the heavy neutrino, which could slightly improve the limits from $B^- \to π^+μ^-μ^-$ (LHCb).

The contributor started researching the war from 2005 onwards, which included research into Dunkirk and the Distinguished Service Medal (DSM). The sources he consulted included over 400 letters to his parents, plus papers and photos describing all aspects of naval life. The contributor published his research in 2009 as a book. The contributor recalled one letter his father wrote on 3rd September 1939 from Dover to their home address. The contributor's father trained on the HMS Chrysanthemum. He was trained in flag semaphore and the use of a type of signal lamp, Aldis. At Dover, his father, along with minesweepers, was transferred to HMS Royal Eagle paddle steamer. The paddle steamer hosted Anti-Aircraft guns with a wide angle of fire.The contributor's father was involved in fetching soldiers off of beaches in naval battles in 1940, most prominently in Dunkirk. He was trained as a navigator at Lancing College and used Wall's tricycles for charting and navigation skills. Also, he served as a gunman officer on HMS Aubretia. The contributor recalled that his father could 'roll on wet grass!'.In the winter of 1943, the contributor's father was awarded a DSM for his involvement in Dunkirk. Meanwhile, he was involved in a convoy escort off the coast of West Africa (Gibraltar), where 'Iolanthe' was produced, while aboard the HMS Aubretia. In 1945, the contributor's father was part of the Loch Frigates in Clyde May, Burntisland in Scotland. He was taught about sonar and depth charge, and spoke of the 'conger eel incident'. His father spent VE Day in Glasgow, then, went to the 'Eastern sphere' which involved fighting the Japanese forces.

description: We present a formalism that resums threshold-enhanced logarithms to all orders in perturbative QCD for the rapidity distribution of any colorless particle produced in hadron colliders. We achieve this by exploiting the factorization properties and K+G equations satisfied by the soft and virtual parts of the cross section. We compute for the first time compact and most general expressions in two-dimensional Mellin space for the resummed coefficients. Using various state-of-the-art multiloop and multileg results, we demonstrate the numerical impact of our resummed results up to next-to-next-to-leading order for the rapidity distribution of the Higgs boson at the LHC. We find that inclusion of these threshold logs through resummation improves the reliability of perturbative predictions.

description: A recent paper [S. Ohkubo, Phys. Rev. C 95, 044002 (2017)] found that the measured 1S0 phase shifts can be reproduced using a deeply attractive nucleon-nucleon potential. We find that the deuteron would decay strongly via pion emission to the deeply bound state arising in this potential. There- fore the success of a deeply attractive potential in describing phase shifts must be regarded only as an interesting curiosity.
description: 2 pages 1 figure. This version includes the calculation of the model's predicted rate for pion-emission decay of the deuteron. This work is in press for Nucl. Phys. A. (2018)

description: We explore non-adiabatic particle production for $N_{\rm f}$ coupled scalar fields in a time-dependent background with stochastically varying effective masses, cross-couplings and intervals between interactions. Under the assumption of weak scattering per interaction, we provide a framework for calculating the typical particle production rates after a large number of interactions. After setting up the framework, for analytic tractability, we consider interactions (effective masses and cross couplings) characterized by series of Dirac-delta functions in time with amplitudes and locations drawn from different distributions. Without assuming that the fields are statistically equivalent, we present closed form results (up to quadratures) for the asymptotic particle production rates for the $N_{\rm f}=1$ and $N_{\rm f}=2$ cases. We also present results for the general $N_{\rm f} >2$ case, but with more restrictive assumptions. We find agreement between our analytic results and direct numerical calculations of the total occupation number of the produced particles, with departures that can be explained in terms of violation of our assumptions. We elucidate the precise connection between the maximum entropy ansatz (MEA) used in Amin & Baumann (2015) and the underlying statistical distribution of the self and cross couplings. We provide and justify a simple to use (MEA-inspired) expression for the particle production rate, which agrees with our more detailed treatment when the parameters characterizing the effective mass and cross-couplings between fields are all comparable to each other. However, deviations are seen when some parameters differ significantly from others. We show that such deviations become negligible for a broad range of parameters when $N_{\rm f}\gg 1$.

description: We study a driven harmonic oscillator operating an Otto cycle between two thermal baths of finite size. By making extensive use of the tools of Gaussian quantum mechanics, we directly simulate the dynamics of the engine as a whole, without the need to make any approximations. This allows us to understand the non-equilibrium thermodynamics of the engine not only from the perspective of the working medium, but also as it is seen from the thermal baths' standpoint. For sufficiently large baths, our engine is capable of running a number of ideal cycles, delivering finite power while operating very close to maximal efficiency. Thereafter, having traversed the baths, the perturbations created by the interaction abruptly deteriorate the engine's performance. We additionally study the correlations generated in the system, and relate the buildup of working medium-baths and bath-bath correlations to the degradation of the engine's performance over the course of many cycles.

description: Experimental evidence of an absorbing phase transition, so far associated with spatio-temporal dynamics is provided in a purely temporal optical system. A bistable semiconductor laser, with long-delayed opto-electronic feedback and multiplicative noise shows the peculiar features of a critical phenomenon belonging to the directed percolation universality class. The numerical study of a simple, effective model provides accurate estimates of the transition critical exponents, in agreement with both theory and our experiment. This result pushes forward an hard equivalence of non-trivial stochastic, long-delayed systems with spatio-temporal ones and opens a new avenue for studying out-of-equilibrium universality classes in purely temporal dynamics.

description: Binary black holes (BBHs) are one of the endpoints of isolated binary evolution, and their mergers a leading channel for gravitational wave events. Here, using the evolutionary code \textsc{StarTrack}, we study the statistical properties of the BBH population from isolated binary evolution for a range of progenitor star metallicities and BH natal kicks. We compute the mass function and the distribution of the primary BH spin $a$ as a result of mass accretion during the binary evolution, and find that this is not an efficient process to spin up BHs, producing an increase by at most $a\sim$~0.2--0.3 for very low natal BH spins. We further compute the distribution of merger sites within the host galaxy, after tracking the motion of the binaries in the potentials of a massive spiral, a massive elliptical, and a dwarf galaxy. We find that a fraction of 70-90\% of mergers in massive galaxies and of 40-60\% in dwarfs (range mostly sensitive to the natal kicks) is expected to occur inside of their hosts. The number density distribution at the merger sites further allows us to estimate the broadband luminosity distribution that BBH mergers would produce, \textit{if} associated with a kinetic energy release in an outflow, {which, as a reference, we assume at the level inferred for the \textit{Fermi} GBM counterpart to GW150914, with the understanding that current limits from the O1 and O2 runs would require such emission to be produced within a jet of angular size within $\lesssim 50^\circ$.}

description: The contributor was four years old at the start of the war, in 1939. The contributor spoke of the Pian del Voglio, the plain of the Volgio River in Italy. The contributor also spoke of Boglona and stated this to be the place where the three armies met. He recalled that his father was a 'guardia' (guard) of the government, and that he held fascist leanings for a brief period of time. His father was a state employee during Mussolini's time and was in charge of protecting trees. His father was not involved in the army. During the Second World War, the American and British armies came into his grandparents' kitchen to make tea. He found it remarkable to see soldiers do this and wondered how they drank something so ordinary. The contributor recalled that they played with little wooden soldiers together, and recounted that "these were real ones". The contributor lived in a village of 800 people. He recalled that his father was expecting to be killed and that his grandfather's house in Pian del Voglio was used in a World War One documentary. The contributor went to school in Barberino. His mother was "just a housemaid" of the town hall mayor.

Halo Abundance and Assembly History with Extreme-Axion Wave Dark Matter at $z\ge 4$

description: Wave dark matter ($ψ\rm{DM}$) composed of extremely light bosons ($m_ψ \sim 10^{-22}\,\rm eV$), with quantum pressure suppressing structures below a kpc-scale de Broglie wavelength, has become a viable dark matter candidate. Compared to the conventional free-particle $ψ{\rm DM}$ (${\rm FP} ψ{\rm DM}$), the extreme-axion $ψ\rm{DM}$ model (${\rm EA} ψ{\rm DM}$) proposed by Zhang & Chiueh (2017) features a larger cut-off wavenumber and a broad spectral bump in the matter transfer function. Here we conduct cosmological simulations to compare the halo abundances and assembly histories at $z=4-11$ between three different scenarios: ${\rm FP} ψ{\rm DM}$, ${\rm EA} ψ{\rm DM}$, and cold dark matter (CDM). We show that ${\rm EA} ψ{\rm DM}$ produces significantly more abundant low-mass haloes than ${\rm FP} ψ{\rm DM}$ with the same $m_ψ$, and therefore could alleviate the tension in $m_ψ$ required by the Ly$α$ forest data and by the kpc-scale dwarf galaxy cores. We also find that, compared to the CDM counterparts, massive ${\rm EA} ψ{\rm DM}$ haloes are on average $3-4$ times more massive at $z=10-11$ due to their earlier formation, undergo a slower mass accretion at $7 \lesssim z \lesssim 11$, and then show a rapidly rising major merger rate exceeding CDM by $\sim 50\%$ at $4 \lesssim z \lesssim 7$. This fact suggests that ${\rm EA} ψ{\rm DM}$ haloes may exhibit more prominent starbursts at $z \lesssim 7$.

description: We investigate the open dynamics of a qubit due to scattering of a single photon in an infinite or semi-infinite waveguide. Through an exact solution of the time-dependent multi-photon scattering problem, we find the qubit's dynamical map. Tools of open quantum systems theory allow us then to discuss the general features of this map, find the corresponding non-Linbladian master equation, and assess in a rigorous way its non-Markovian nature. The qubit dynamics has distinctive features that, in particular, do not occur in emission processes. Two fundamental sources of non-Markovianity are present: the finite width of the photon wavepacket and the time delay for propagation between the qubit and the end of the semi-infinite waveguide.

description: One of the most fundamental tasks in quantum thermodynamics is extracting energy from one system and subsequently storing this energy in an appropriate battery. Both of these steps, work extraction and charging, can be viewed as cyclic Hamiltonian processes acting on individual quantum systems. Interestingly, so-called passive states exist, whose energy cannot be lowered by unitary operations, but it is safe to assume that the energy of any not fully charged battery may be increased unitarily. However, unitaries raising the average energy by the same amount may differ in qualities such as their precision, fluctuations, and charging power. Moreover, some unitaries may be extremely difficult to realize in practice. It is hence of crucial importance to understand the qualities that can be expected from practically implementable transformations. Here, we consider the limitations on charging batteries when restricting to the feasibly realizable family of Gaussian unitaries. We derive optimal protocols for general unitary operations as well as for the restriction to easier implementable Gaussian unitaries. We find that practical Gaussian battery charging, while performing significantly less well than is possible in principle, still offers asymptotically vanishing relative charge variances and fluctuations.
