title: A Study of the Reactions of p-Dipiperidino Benzene and Its Synthesis from 1,4-Dicyano-1,4-Dipiperidinocyclohexane

description: Following a classical synthesis of PCP2 Williams attempted to prepare l,4-diphenyl-1,4-dipiperidino cyclohexane 41 . This approach involved the preparation of 1,4- dicyano-1,4-dipiperidinocyclohexane 7 and the subsequent decyanation of the compound with phenylmagnesium bromide to produce 4. This attempt failed, however, as only the monophenylated product, 8, was thought to be obtained. This product had unique reactivity, producing a blue intermediate upon treatment with halogen in both aqueous and non aqueous media. The same intermediate was produced upon irradiation of a chloroform solution of this product with sunlight or UV light in a UV chamber, with the difference that this reaction produced a solid product upon further irradiation.

In this research, the structural assignment of 8 was reevaluated using NMR, IR, and GC mass spectroscopy, and what was initially thought of as !! was found to be p-dipiperidinobenzene 1.This new structural assignment can now explain the reactivity of 1 towards halogens and light, as it produces a Wurster's dye (a stable radical cation) which is a reaction typical of N,N'-substituted p-phenylenediamines like 1. The solid product produced by the sunlight (or UV light) irradiation of a chloroform solution of 1, was also identified as the hydrochloride of 1. This was due to the fact that chloroform upon irradiation with UV light evolves gaseous hydrogen chloride.

description: We investigate the spectrum of the three-dimensional Dirichlet Laplacian in a prototypal infinite polyhedral layer, that is formed by three perpendicular quarter-plane walls of constant width joining each other. Alternatively, this domain can be viewed as an octant from which another "parallel" octant is removed. It contains six edges (three convex and three non-convex) and two corners (one convex and one non-convex). It is a canonical example of non-smooth conical layer. We name it after Fichera because near its non-convex corner, it coincides with the famous Fichera cube that illustrates the interaction between edge and corner singularities. This domain could also be called an octant layer. We show that the essential spectrum of the Laplacian on such a domain is a half-line and we characterize its minimum as the first eigenvalue of the two-dimensional Laplacian on a broken guide. By a Born-Oppenheimer type strategy, we also prove that its discrete spectrum is finite and that a lower bound is given by the ground state of a special Sturm-Liouville operator. By finite element computations taking singularities into account, we exhibit exactly one eigenvalue under the essential spectrum threshold leaving a relative gap of 3%. We extend these results to a variant of the Fichera layer with rounded edges (for which we find a very small relative gap of 0.5%), and to a three-dimensional cross where the three walls are full thickened planes.

description: Over the past few years, deep neural networks (DNNs) have exhibited great success in predicting the saliency of images. However, there are few works that apply DNNs to predict the saliency of generic videos. In this paper, we propose a novel DNN-based video saliency prediction method. Specifically, we establish a large-scale eye-tracking database of videos (LEDOV), which provides sufficient data to train the DNN models for predicting video saliency. Through the statistical analysis of our LEDOV database, we find that human attention is normally attracted by objects, particularly moving objects or the moving parts of objects. Accordingly, we propose an object-to-motion convolutional neural network (OM-CNN) to learn spatio-temporal features for predicting the intra-frame saliency via exploring the information of both objectness and object motion. We further find from our database that there exists a temporal correlation of human attention with a smooth saliency transition across video frames. Therefore, we develop a two-layer convolutional long short-term memory (2C-LSTM) network in our DNN-based method, using the extracted features of OM-CNN as the input. Consequently, the inter-frame saliency maps of videos can be generated, which consider the transition of attention across video frames. Finally, the experimental results show that our method advances the state-of-the-art in video saliency prediction.

description: Harry Lemon was a painter and served in the First World War initially as a what we might call a Telecom installer, rigging telephone wires along the Western Front. Once that was complete, he was moved to a fighting regiment and became a machine gunner's mate, feeding belts of ammunition through the firing chamber. It was during this that he got shot up by a German pilot in a bi-plane, and his elbow disintegrated. He was sent back to London, and came under the care of the King's Physician, and put in a ward with 8 other men, including a fellow whose leg was badly damaged and was expecting to have a 'deadleg' ie unable to bend at the knee. His name was Green, and Lemon and Green became good mates and after a few days were told they would be going into surgery the next morning. When he came round after the operation and things seemed to have worked well, the King's Physician explained to them both that he had added bone to Green's leg so he saved it but it would be a deadleg ie unable to bend it, and he had used parts of Green's knee to fashion a new elbow for Lemon. They both thought this was amazing and had a jolly good laugh about it apparently.Then came the Second World War, for which he was excused from military duty because of his elbow, but did become a captain in the Home Guard, running a platoon of volunteers. One of his jobs was to look out from a tall building during air raids, and watch out for enemy pilots parachuting out of damaged planes. One night, watching the war, a bomb exploded across the road and blew glass into him. Mainly his uniform protected him, but he had hundreds of glass fragments embedded in the face, neck and throat. This took a while to recover from, and he was in St Hugh's Hospital close to where they lived in Ladbrook Grove, and after the initial surgery to stitch his face up, he would sleep at the Hospital but during the day walk home to Nan. The worse of the injuries was the loss of sight in one eye.

description: In the current work, a problem-splitting approach and a scheme motivated by transfer learning is applied to a structural health monitoring problem. The specific problem in this case is that of localising damage on an aircraft wing. The original experiment is described, together with the initial approach, in which a neural network was trained to localise damage. The results were not ideal, partly because of a scarcity of training data, and partly because of the difficulty in resolving two of the damage cases. In the current paper, the problem is split into two sub-problems and an increase in classification accuracy is obtained. The sub-problems are obtained by separating out the most difficult-to-classify damage cases. A second approach to the problem is considered by adopting ideas from transfer learning (usually applied in much deeper) networks to see if a network trained on the simpler damage cases can help with feature extraction in the more difficult cases. The transfer of a fixed trained batch of layers between the networks is found to improve classification by making the classes more separable in the feature space and to speed up convergence.

In order to describe this mixing, we extend the linearized Eliashberg equation for the spin and charge fluctuation mechanism in strongly correlated electron systems. We apply this extended Eliashberg equation to the odd-frequency superconductivity on a quasi-one-dimensional isosceles triangular lattice under in-plane magnetic field and examine the effect of the even-frequency component.

description: Chiral crystals consisting of micro-helices have many optical properties while presently available fabrication processes limit their large-scale applications in photonic devices. Here, by using a simplified simulation method, we investigate a bottom-up self-assembly route to build up helical crystals from the smectic monolayer of colloidal helices racemate. With increasing the density, the system undergoes an entropy-driven co-crystallization by forming crystals of various symmetries with different helical shapes. In particular, we identify two crystals of helices arranged in the binary honeycomb and square lattices, which are essentially composed by two sets of opposite-handed chiral crystal. Photonic calculations show that these chiral structures can have large complete photonic bandgaps. In addition, in the self-assembled chiral square crystal, we also find dual polarization bandgaps that selectively forbid the propagation of circularly polarized lights of a specific handedness along the helical axis direction. The self-assembly process in our proposed system is robust, suggesting possibilities of using chiral colloids to assemble photonic metamaterials.

description: Recent observations have allowed the geometry and kinematics of the M87 jet to be tightly constrained. We combine these constraints with historical Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) results and the theory of synchrotron self-absorbed radio cores in order to investigate the physical properties of the jet. Our results strongly suggest the jet to be dominated by an electron-positron (pair) plasma. Although our conservative constraints cannot conclusively dismiss an electron-proton plasma, the viability of this solution is extremely vulnerable to further tightening of VLBI surface brightness limits. The arguments presented, coupled with future high-resolution multi-frequency VLBI studies of the jet core, will be able to firmly distinguish these two possibilities.

description: The role of galaxy mergers in fueling active galactic nuclei (AGN) is still debated, owing partly to selection effects inherent to studies of the merger/AGN connection. In particular, luminous AGN are often heavily obscured in late-stage mergers. Mid-infrared (IR) color selection of dust-enshrouded AGN with, e.g., the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has uncovered large new populations of obscured AGN. However, this method is sensitive mainly to AGN that dominate emission from the host. To understand how these selection biases affect mid-IR studies of the merger/AGN connection, we simulate the evolution of obscured AGN throughout galaxy mergers. Although mid-IR colors closely trace luminous, obscured AGN, we show that nearly half of merger-triggered AGN are missed with common mid-IR selection criteria, even in late-stage, gas-rich major mergers. At z < 0.5, where merger signatures and dual nuclei can most easily be detected, we find that a more lenient W1-W2 > 0.5 cut greatly improves completeness without significantly decreasing reliability. Extreme nuclear starbursts are briefly able to mimic this AGN signature, but this is largely irrelevant in mergers, where such starbursts are accompanied by AGN. We propose a two-color cut that yields high completeness and reliability even in starbursting systems. Further, we show that mid-IR color selection very effectively identifies dual AGN hosts, with the highest fraction at the smallest separations (< 3 kpc). Thus, many merger hosts of mid-IR AGN should contain unresolved dual AGN; these are ideal targets for high-resolution follow-up, particularly with the James Webb Space Telescope.

A General Algorithm for Calculating Jet Cross Sections in NLO QCD

Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We present a new general algorithm for calculating arbitrary jet cross sections in arbitrary scattering processes to next-to-leading accuracy in perturbative QCD. The algorithm is based on the subtraction method. The key ingredients are new factorization formulae, called dipole formulae, which implement in a Lorentz covariant way both the usual soft and collinear approximations, smoothly interpolating the two. The corresponding dipole phase space obeys exact factorization, so that the dipole contributions to the cross section can be exactly integrated analytically over the whole of phase space. We obtain explicit analytic results for any jet observable in any scattering or fragmentation process in lepton, lepton-hadron or hadron-hadron collisions. All the analytical formulae necessary to construct a numerical program for next-to-leading order QCD calculations are provided. The algorithm is straightforwardly implementable in general purpose Monte Carlo programs.

Low- and high-order gravitational harmonics of rigidly rotating Jupiter

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Juno Orbiter has provided improved estimates of the even gravitational harmonics J2 to J8 of Jupiter. To compute higher-order moments, new methods such as the Concentric Maclaurin Spheroids (CMS) method have been developed which surpass the so far commonly used Theory of Figures (ToF) method in accuracy. This progress rises the question whether ToF can still provide a useful service for deriving the internal structure of giant planets in the Solar system. In this paper, I apply both the ToF and the CMS method to compare results for polytropic Jupiter and for the physical equation of state H/He-REOS.3 based models. An accuracy in the computed values of J2 and J4 of 0.1% is found to be sufficient in order to obtain the core mass safely within 0.5 Mearth numerical accuracy and the atmospheric metallicity within about 0.0004. ToF to 4th order provides that accuracy, while ToF to 3rd order does not for J4. Furthermore, I find that the assumption of rigid rotation yields J6 and J8 values in agreement with the current Juno estimates, and that higher order terms (J10 to J18) deviate by about 10% from predictions by polytropic models. This work suggests that ToF4 can still be applied to infer the deep internal structure, and that the zonal winds on Jupiter reach less deep than 0.9 RJup.

description: Despite the recent developments that allowed neural networks to achieve impressive performance on a variety of applications, these models are intrinsically affected by the problem of overgeneralization, due to their partitioning of the full input space into the fixed set of target classes used during training. Thus it is possible for novel inputs belonging to categories unknown during training or even completely unrecognizable to humans to fool the system into classifying them as one of the known classes, even with a high degree of confidence. Solving this problem may help improve the security of such systems in critical applications, and may further lead to applications in the context of open set recognition and 1-class recognition. This paper presents a novel way to compute a confidence score using denoising autoencoders and shows that such confidence score can correctly identify the regions of the input space close to the training distribution by approximately identifying its local maxima.

description: The TGRS (Transient Gamma-Ray Spectrometer) experiment is a high-resolution germanium detector launched on the WIND satellite on Nov. 1, 1994. Although primarily intended to study gamma-ray bursts and solar flares, TGRS also has the capability of studying slower transients (e.g. x-ray novae) and certain steady sources. We present here results on the narrow 511 keV annihilation line from the general direction of the Galactic Center accumulated over the period Jan. 1995 through Oct. 1995. These results were obtained from the TGRS occultation mode, in which a lead absorber occults the Galactic Center region for 1/4 of each spacecraft rotation, thus chopping the 511 keV signal. The occulted region is a band in the sky of width 16 degrees that passes through the Galactic Center. We detect the narrow annihilation line from the galactic center with flux = $(1.64\pm0.09)\times10^{-3} {photons} {cm}^{-2} {s}^{-1}$. The data are consistent with a single point source at the galactic center, but a distributed source of extent up to ~30 degrees cannot be ruled out. No evidence for temporal variability on time scales longer than 1 month was found.

description: We provide complete analytic expressions for the isolated prompt photon production cross section in $e^+e^-$ annihilation reactions through one-loop order in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) perturbation theory. Functional dependences on the isolation cone size $δ$ and isolation energy parameter $ε$ are derived. The energy dependence as well as the full angular dependence of the cross section on $θ_γ$ are displayed, where $θ_γ$ specifies the direction of the photon with respect to the $e^+e^-$ collision axis. We point out that conventional perturbative QCD factorization breaks down for isolated photon production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation reactions in a specific region of phase space. We discuss the implications of this breakdown for the extraction of fragmentation functions from $e^+e^-$ annihilation data and for computations of prompt photon production in hadron-hadron reactions.

description: Quantum error correction is important to quantum information processing, which allows us to reliably process information encoded in quantum error correction codes. Efficient quantum error correction benefits from the knowledge of error rates. We propose a protocol for monitoring error rates in real time without interrupting the quantum error correction. Any adaptation of the quantum error correction code or its implementation circuit is not required. The protocol can be directly applied to the most advanced quantum error correction techniques, e.g. surface code. A Gaussian processes algorithm is used to estimate and predict error rates based on error correction data in the past. We find that using these estimated error rates, the probability of error correction failures can be significantly reduced by a factor increasing with the code distance.

description: Aims: To examine the clinical and economic outcomes associated with the use of long-acting bronchodilators for initial maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by analyzing health insurance claims data in the US. Methods: A retrospective, observational, matched cohort study used health insurance claims data (January 2008 to June 2013) to assess COPD-related outcomes for subjects aged ≥40 years. Subjects were assigned to a study cohort according to the first observed prescription fill for a long-acting bronchodilator (fluticasone propionate 250 mcg/salmeterol 50 mcg [FSC] or tiotropium bromide 18 mcg [TIO]). The analysis period for each subject comprised a 1-year pre-index date and 1-year post-index date. Primary outcome measure was total COPD-related costs per-patient per-year (PPPY) during the follow-up period. Secondary outcome measures included COPD-related exacerbations and the components of COPD-related costs. Results: Overall, 24,040 subjects were identified; the analysis sample consisted of 19,090 subjects (9,545 per cohort) with no significant differences between cohorts. Mean COPD-related total costs PPPY were numerically lower among the FSC cohort; however, the difference was not statistically significant ($2,224 [±4,108] vs $2,352 [±3,721], p = .057). There was no difference between cohorts for COPD-related medical costs (p = .894). COPD-related pharmacy costs were significantly, yet modestly, lower in the FSC cohort compared with the TIO cohort ($1,160 [±1,106] vs 1,275 [±1,110], p Limitations: While propensity scoring achieved balance in baseline characteristics, some residual confounding unobserved in the database may be present. Conclusions: Few clinical and economic differences between subjects initiating maintenance therapy with FSC or TIO were observed.

description: We study the partitioning of cosolute particles in a thin film of a semi-flexible polymer network by a combination of coarse-grained (implicit-solvent) stochastic dynamics simulations and mean-field theory. We focus on a wide range of solvent qualities and cosolute-network interactions for selected polymer flexibilities. Our investigated ensemble (isothermal-isobaric) allows the network to undergo a volume transition from extended to collapsed state while the cosolutes can distribute in bulk and network, correspondingly. We find a rich topology of equilibrium states of the network and transitions between them, qualitatively depending on solvent quality, polymer flexibility, and cosolute-network interactions. In particular, we find a novel `cosolute-induced' collapsed state, where strongly attractive cosolutes bridge network monomers albeit the latter interact mutually repulsive. Finally, the cosolutes' global partitioning `landscape', computed as a function of solvent quality and cosolute-network interactions, exhibits very different topologies depending on polymer flexibility. The simulation results are supported by theoretical predictions obtained with a two-component mean-field approximation for the Helmholtz free energy that considers the chain elasticity and the particle interactions in terms of a virial expansion. Our findings have implications on the interpretation of transport processes and permeability in hydrogel films, as realized in filtration or macromolecular carrier systems.

description: A collection of modern, field-theoretical equations of state is applied to the investigation of cooling properties of compact stars. These comprise neutron stars as well as hypothetical strange matter stars, made up of absolutely stable 3-flavor strange quark matter. Various uncertainties in the behavior of matter at supernuclear densities, e.g., hyperonic degrees of freedom, behavior of coupling strengths in matter, pion and meson condensation, superfluidity, transition to quark matter, absolute stability of strange quark matter, and last but not least the many-body technique itself are tested against the body of observed cooling data.

description: We investigate the cosmological constraints on exotic stable matter states which arise in realistic free fermionic superstring models. These states appear in the superstring models due to a ``Wilson--line'' breaking of the unifying non--Abelian gauge symmetry. In the models that we consider the unifying $SO(10)$ gauge symmetry is broken at the string level to $SO(6)\times SO(4)$, $SU(5)\times U(1)$ or $SU(3)\times SU(2)\times U(1)^2$. The exotic matter states are classified according to the patterns of the $SO(10)$ symmetry breaking. In $SO(6)\times SO(4)$ and $SU(5)\times U(1)$ type models one obtains fractionally charged states with $Q_{\rm e.m.}=\pm1/2$. In $SU(3)\times SU(2)\times U(1)^2$ type models one also obtains states with the regular charges under the Standard Model gauge group but with ``fractional'' charges under the $U(1)_{Z^\prime}$ symmetry. These states include down--like color triplets and electroweak doublets, as well as states which are Standard Model singlets. By analyzing the renormalizable and nonrenormalizable terms of the superpotential in a specific superstring model, we show that these exotic states can be stable. We investigate the cosmological constraints on the masses and relic density of the exotic states. We propose that, while the abundance and the masses of the fractionally charged states are highly constrained, the Standard Model -- like states, and in particular the Standard Model singlet, are good dark matter candidates.

description: We show that the mapping class group of a compact orientable surface with higher complexity has the following extreme rigidity in the sense of measure equivalence: if the mapping class group is measure equivalent to a discrete group, then they are commensurable up to finite kernel. Moreover, we describe all lattice embeddings of the mapping class group into a locally compact second countable group. We also obtain similar results for finite direct products of mapping class groups.

description: We study the effect of large acceleration of an uniformly accelerated frame on the validity of weak equivalence principle. Specifically we demonstrate how the behaviour of free quantum particle, as observed by an observer with large uniform acceleration, completely changes from that of a quantum particle emmarsed in a uniform gravitational field. We also extend our analysis to the simplest noncommutative space scenario to show that while spatial noncommutativity does not affect the quantum particle in a gravitational field, it does alter the energy eigenvalues of a quantum particle as seen from a frame with very large uniform acceleration.

Algebraic laminations for free products and arational trees

description: This work is the first step towards a description of the Gromov boundary of the free factor graph of a free product, with applications to subgroup classification for outer automorphisms. We extend the theory of algebraic laminations dual to trees, as developed by Coulbois, Hilion, Lustig and Reynolds, to the context of free products; this also gives us an opportunity to give a unified account of this theory. We first show that any $\mathbb{R}$-tree with dense orbits in the boundary of the corresponding outer space can be reconstructed as a quotient of the boundary of the group by its dual lamination. We then describe the dual lamination in terms of a band complex on compact $\mathbb{R}$-trees (generalizing Coulbois-Hilion-Lustig's compact heart), and we analyze this band complex using versions of the Rips machine and of the Rauzy-Veech induction. An important output of the theory is that the above map from the boundary of the group to the $\mathbb{R}$-tree is 2-to-1 almost everywhere. A key point for our intended application is a unique duality result for arational trees. It says that if two trees have a leaf in common in their dual laminations, and if one of the trees is arational and relatively free, then they are equivariantly homeomorphic. This statement is an analogue of a result in the free group saying that if two trees are dual to a common current and one of the trees is free arational, then the two trees are equivariantly homeomorphic. However, we notice that in the setting of free products, the continuity of the pairing between trees and currents fails. For this reason, in all this paper, we work with laminations rather than with currents.

Gravitational Shapiro phase shift on pulsars' period to detect Dark Matter

description: The Shapiro Phase Shift on Pulsars (SPSP) influence at low , but detectable level the pulsars' (PSR) periods and their derivatives. This effect may be already written in PSRs' time derivative deviation and in particular it may explain the presence of a few negative pulse derivatives among 558 known PSRs. We describe in detail the phenomenon and predict that the SPSP may play a role in period derivative deviations for just a few PSRs a year ( 0.5 - 5 ev / yr) at a positive period derivative 10^-14 - 10^-15 s/s level , leading to a plausible explanation to the puzzling negative pulse derivative of few PSRs' periods.

Free-space creation of ultralong anti-diffracting light beam with multiple energy oscillations adjusted using optical pen

description: A light beam propagating with an infinite anti-diffracting distance requires infinite power to preserve its shape. However, the fundamental barrier of finite power in free space has made the problem of diffraction insurmountable over the past few decades. Here, to overcome this limitation, we report an approach that employs the multiple energy oscillation mechanism, thereby permitting the creation of a light beam with an ultralong anti-diffracting distance in free space. The anti-diffracting distance is no longer restricted by finite power in free space but instead depends on the number of energy oscillations. This unprecedented propagation behavior is attributed to a new understanding of non-diffractive light beam: when an anti-diffracting light beam completely discharges its energy, it cannot recharge again. A versatile optical pen is therefore developed to manipulate the number, amplitude, position and phase of energy oscillations for an arbitrary numerical aperture of a focusing lens so that energy recharge can occur in free space and multiple energy oscillations can be realized. A light beam with a tunable number of energy oscillations is eventually generated in free space and propagates along a wavy trajectory. This work will enable extending non-diffractive light beams to an expanded realm and facilitate extensive developments in optics and other research fields, such as electronics and acoustics.
