description: We report the results of 15 years of radio observations of the six historical supernovae (SNe) in M83 using the Very Large Array. We note the near linear decline in radio emission from SN 1957D, a type II SN, which remains a non-thermal radio emitter. The measured flux densities from SNe 1923A and 1950B have flattened as they begin to fade below detectable limits, also type II SNe. The luminosities for these three SNe are comparable with the radio luminosities of other decades-old SNe at similar epochs. SNe 1945B, 1968L, and 1983N were not detected in the most recent observations and these non-detections are consistent with previous studies. We report the X-ray non-detections of all six historical SNe using the Chandra X-ray Observatory, consistent with previous X-ray searches of other decades-old SNe, and low inferred mass loss rates of the progenitors.

Impact of magnetic field on neutrino-matter interactions in core-collapse supernova
Creators: name: Kuroda, Takami
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We explore the impact of magnetic field on neutrino-matter interactions in core-collapse supernova. We first derive the modified source terms for neutrino-nucleon scattering and neutrino absorption and emission processes in the moment formalism. Then we perform full relativistic three-dimensional, magnetorotational core-collapse supernova simulations of a 20 $M_\odot$ star with spectral neutrino transport. Our simulations treat self-consistently the parity violation effects of weak interaction in the presence of external magnetic field. The result shows a significant global asymmetry, mostly confined in the proto-neutron star, with clearly reflecting the magnetic field structure. The asymmetric property arises from two factors: the angle between the neutrino flux and magnetic field, and the term, which is parallel to the magnetic field and is also proportional to the deviation of distribution function of neutrinos from thermal equilibrium. The typical correction value amounts to $\sim1$ % relative to the total neutrino-matter interaction rate for the magnetic field strength of $\sim 10^{15-16}$~G. Although these asymmetric properties do not immediately affect the explosion dynamics, our results imply that they would be significant once the neutrinos diffuse out the proto-neutron star core carrying those asymmetries away. We also show that, during our simulation time of $\sim370$ ms after bounce, our results indicate that the correction value due to the modified inelastic scattering process dominates over that of the modified neutrino absorption and emission process.

description: Manipulation of infinite dimensional quantum systems is important to controlling complex quantum dynamics with many practical physical and chemical backgrounds. In this paper, a general investigation is casted to the controllability problem of quantum systems evolving on infinite dimensional manifolds. Recognizing that such problems are related with infinite dimensional controllability algebras, we introduce an algebraic mathematical framework to describe quantum control systems possessing such controllability algebras. Then we present the concept of smooth controllability on infinite dimensional manifolds, and draw the main result on approximate strong smooth controllability. This is a nontrivial extension of the existing controllability results based on the analysis over finite dimensional vector spaces to analysis over infinite dimensional manifolds. It also opens up many interesting problems for future studies.

description: The Guam BMUS data workshops—staggered a year behind those of American Samoa, in congruence with their benchmark assessment timelines—were held on January 17th-19th, 2023. The primary goal of the workshops was to solicit input from the Guam Department of Agriculture’s (DOAG) Division of Aquatic and Wildlife Resources (DAWR) and bottomfish fishers to contextualize data and apparent data trends available to PIFSC stock assessors for the 2024 Guam BMUS stock assessment. These workshops are distinct from complementary and parallel efforts of the Fishery Monitoring and Research Division (FRMD; parent division to the SAP). Parallel efforts include data collection improvements, revision of the bottomfish management unit species, and stock assessment improvements.

description: We study the spatial Fourier transform of the spin correlation function G_q(t) in paramagnetic quantum crystals by direct simulation of a 1d lattice of atoms interacting via a nearest-neighbor Heisenberg exchange Hamiltonian. Since it is not practical to diagonalize the s=1/2 exchange Hamiltonian for a lattice which is of sufficient size to study long-wavelength (hydrodynamic) fluctuations, we instead study the s -> infinity limit and treat each spin as a vector with a classical equation of motion. The simulations give a detailed picture of the correlation function G_q(t) and its time derivatives. At high polarization, there seems to be a hierarchy of frequency scales: the local exchange frequency, a wavelength-independent relaxation rate 1/tau that vanishes at large polarization P ->1, and a wavelength-dependent spin-wave frequency proportional to q^2. This suggests a form for the correlation function which modifies the spin diffusion coefficients obtained in a moments calculation by Cowan and Mullin, who used a standard Gaussian ansatz for the second derivative of the correlation function.

description: In the presence of constant background electromagnetic fields, we discuss three types of exactly marginal boundary tachyon operators for static kinks in boundary conformal field theory. Functional forms of three operators are hyperbolic sine, hyperbolic cosine, and exponential types, and they describe codimension-one solitons when the transverse electric field has overcritical value. The energy-momentum tensor and the source for antisymmetric tensor field are computed in the path integral approach for the exponential-type tachyon vertex operator.

The behavior of the expectation values of the Wilson loops both near the critical area and for large areas are investigated. It is shown that the expectation values of the Wilson loops at large areas behave exponentially with respect to the area of the smaller region the boundary of which is the loop; and for the so called typical theories, the expectation values of the Wilson loops exhibit a discontinuity in their second derivative (with respect to the area) at the critical area.

description: The projected density distribution of type ab RR Lyrae (RRab) stars was characterised from the innermost regions of the Milky Way to the halo, with the aim of placing constraints on the Galaxys evolution. The compiled sample (N_RRab = 64,850) stems from fundamental mode RR Lyrae variables identified by the VVV, OGLE, and Gaia surveys. The distribution is well fitted by three power laws over three radial intervals. In the innermost region (R < 2.2 deg) the distribution follows Sigma_RRab[1] propto R ^(-0.94 +- 0.051), while in the external region the distribution adheres to Sigma_RRab[2] propto R^(-1.50 +- 0.019) for 2.2 deg< R <8.0 deg and Sigma_RRab[3] propto R ^(-2.43 +- 0.043) for 8.0 deg < R <30.0 deg. Conversely, the cumulative distribution of red clump (RC) giants exhibits a more concentrated distribution in the mean, but in the central R < 2.2 deg the RRab population is more peaked, whereas globular clusters (GCs) follow a density power law (Sigma_GCs propto R ^(-1.59 +- 0.060) for R<30.0 deg) similar to that of RRab stars, especially when considering a more metal-poor subsample ([Fe/H]18 %) of the central Galactic region. The radii containing half of the populations (half populations radii) are R_H=6.8 deg (0.99 kpc), R_H =4.2 deg (0.61 kpc), and R_H =11.9 deg (1.75 kpc) for the RRab stars, RC giants, and GCs, respectively. Finally, merely 1% of the stars have been actually discovered in the innermost region (R < 35 pc) out of the expected (based on our considerations) total number of RRab therein: N sim 1,562. That deficit will be substantially ameliorated with future space missions like the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (formerly WFIRST).

description: Given a Poisson (or more generally Dirac) manifold $P$, there are two approaches to its geometric quantization: one involves a circle bundle $Q$ over $P$ endowed with a Jacobi (or Jacobi-Dirac) structure; the other one involves a circle bundle with a (pre-) contact groupoid structure over the (pre-) symplectic groupoid of $P$. We study the relation between these two prequantization spaces. We show that the circle bundle over the (pre-) symplectic groupoid of $P$ is obtained from the groupoid of $Q$ via an $S^1$ reduction that preserves both the groupoid and the geometric structure.

These have been identified as priority species by Guam’s Department of Agriculture (DoAg) Division of Aquatic and Wildlife Resources (DAWR) as part of the development of a Jurisdictional Coral Reef Fishery Management Plan (JCR FMP). Given the data limited nature of the fisheries, a meta-analytic data-poor approach to impute life history parameters for some  species, combined with a growth-type-group length-based spawning potential ratio model (GTG LBSPR) was used to assess current status. We then simulated the potential outcomes of conventional management tactics such as length and bag limits to limit fishing mortality such as effort reductions or the establishment of catch limits.
Coherent noise cancellation in optomechanical system with double optical modes

Year: 2020

description: The coherent quantum noise cancellation (CQNC) strategy has been performed in the single-mode optomechanical systems to promote an ultra-sensitive metrology protocol to break the standard quantum limit. The key idea of CQNC is that the backaction noises arising from radiation pressure and driving can be offset by coupling the optical mode to a near-resonant ancillary mode. In this work, a continuous weak-force sensing under CQNC is developed in a double-mode optomechanical system consisted of two optical modes with distinct frequencies and a mechanical mode. In particular, under the asymmetrical treatment by driving the higher-frequency optical mode, probing the lower-frequency one, and coupling the probe mode to the ancillary mode, our configuration can be used to resemble the conventional CQNC sensing. It is more important to find that the current CQNC strategy simultaneously stabilizes the double-mode system with respect to both the constrained driving power (the Routh-Hurwitz criterion) and the effective positive mechanical damping (the stable optical-spring condition). Moreover, through exploiting the coupling between the probe mode and the ancillary mode under this nontrivial extension of the CQNC strategy (from the single-mode version to the double-mode one), the rotating-wave term and the counter-rotating term are found to be responsible to the system stability and the noise cancellation, respectively. In realistic situations, our scheme can be practiced in a tripartite optomechanical setup with a membrane in the middle and a twisted-cavity-based weak-torque detector.

description: Ad5-GUCY2C-PADRE is a replication-deficient human type 5 recombinant adenovirus (Ad5) vaccine encoding guanylyl cyclase C (GUCY2C) fused to the PAn DR Epitope (PADRE). GUCY2C, a paracrine hormone receptor producing the second messenger cyclic GMP (cGMP), is selectively expressed by intestinal epithelial cells and a subset of hypothalamic neurons, but not other tissues. Importantly, GUCY2C is over-expressed in nearly all primary and metastatic human colorectal tumors. Preclinical studies in mice demonstrated selective tolerance of GUCY2C-specific CD4 T cells, but not CD8 T or B cells, necessitating inclusion of the exogenous CD4 T helper cell epitope PADRE to maximize GUCY2C-specific CD8 T-cell and antibody responses and antitumor efficacy, without autoimmunity.

This poster describes interim analysis of an open-label, single arm “proof-of-concept” study evaluating a single dose level of Ad5-GUCY2C-PADRE as a vaccine for surgically-treated, node-negative colon cancer subjects (NCT01972737). The vaccine was well tolerated, producing only mild adverse events (AEs).  Importantly, GUCY2C-specific antibody and T-cell responses were observed in a subset of subjects. Consistent with preclinical mouse data, T-cell responses were composed of CD8, but not CD4, T cells, suggesting that GUCY2C-specific selective CD4 T cell tolerance occurs in humans.

Overall, the interim analysis of 10 subjects receiving Ad5-GUCY2C-PADRE demonstrates proof-of-concept that GUCY2C is immunogenic in humans and that GUCY2C-directed vaccination is safe. Moreover, the presence of GUCY2C-specific antibody and CD8 T-cell, but not CD4 T-cell, responses is consistent with selective CD4 T-cell tolerance observed in mouse models. These data establish GUCY2C as a safe and immunogenic target for immunotherapy in cancer patients.

description: Investigating the relationships between two sets of variables helps to understand their interactions and can be done with canonical correlation analysis (CCA). However, the correlation between the two sets can sometimes depend on a third set of covariates, often subject-related ones such as age, gender, or other clinical measures. In this case, applying CCA to the whole population is not optimal and methods to estimate conditional CCA, given the covariates, can be useful. We propose a new method called Random Forest with Canonical Correlation Analysis (RFCCA) to estimate the conditional canonical correlations between two sets of variables given subject-related covariates. The individual trees in the forest are built with a splitting rule specifically designed to partition the data to maximize the canonical correlation heterogeneity between child nodes. We also propose a significance test to detect the global effect of the covariates on the relationship between two sets of variables. The performance of the proposed method and the global significance test is evaluated through simulation studies that show it provides accurate canonical correlation estimations and well-controlled Type-1 error. We also show an application of the proposed method with EEG data.

description: We present results from applying the SNAD anomaly detection pipeline to the third public data release of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF DR3). The pipeline is composed of 3 stages: feature extraction, search of outliers with machine learning algorithms and anomaly identification with followup by human experts. Our analysis concentrates in three ZTF fields, comprising more than 2.25 million objects. A set of 4 automatic learning algorithms was used to identify 277 outliers, which were subsequently scrutinised by an expert. From these, 188 (68%) were found to be bogus light curves -- including effects from the image subtraction pipeline as well as overlapping between a star and a known asteroid, 66 (24%) were previously reported sources whereas 23 (8%) correspond to non-catalogued objects, with the two latter cases of potential scientific interest (e. g. 1 spectroscopically confirmed RS Canum Venaticorum star, 4 supernovae candidates, 1 red dwarf flare). Moreover, using results from the expert analysis, we were able to identify a simple bi-dimensional relation which can be used to aid filtering potentially bogus light curves in future studies. We provide a complete list of objects with potential scientific application so they can be further scrutinised by the community. These results confirm the importance of combining automatic machine learning algorithms with domain knowledge in the construction of recommendation systems for astronomy.

description: Anthracycline-based chemotherapy is a conventional therapy for breast cancer patients, but also negatively affect host immune function. When the host immune system does not work, chemotherapy and radiotherapy cannot kill the cancer cells efficiently. Therefore, improve the host immune system is important for cancer efficient treatment. Meanwhile, Nature killer (NK) cells are well known to boost the immune responses against cancer, and autologous immune enhancement therapy for cancer using NK cells prolong the survival without any adverse effect.

To develop an efficient treatment for breast cancer patients, we treated breast cancer cell lines with anthracycline agent Epirubicin (EPI) combined with immune cells NK. Moreover, the mechanism between EPI and NK were also explored in our study.

description: Evolutionary game theory assumes that players replicate a highly scored player's strategy through genetic inheritance. However, when learning occurs culturally, it is often difficult to recognize someone's strategy just by observing the behaviour. In this work, we consider players with memory-one stochastic strategies in the iterated prisoner's dilemma, with an assumption that they cannot directly access each other's strategy but only observe the actual moves for a certain number of rounds. Based on the observation, the observer has to infer the resident strategy in a Bayesian way and chooses his or her own strategy accordingly. By examining the best-response relations, we argue that players can escape from full defection into a cooperative equilibrium supported by Win-Stay-Lose-Shift in a self-confirming manner, provided that the cost of cooperation is low and the observational learning supplies sufficiently large uncertainty.

description: A Super Tau Charm Facility (STCF) is one of the major options for the accelerator-based high energy project in China in the post-BEPCII era, and its R\&D program is underway. The proposed STCF will span center of mass energies ($\sqrt{s}$) ranging from 2 to 7 GeV with a peaking luminosity above $0.5\times 10^{35}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s}=4.0$ GeV, and will provide a unique platform for tau-charm physics and hadron physics. In order to evaluate the physical potential capabilities and optimize the detector design, a fast simulation package has been developed. This package takes as inputs the response of physical objects in each sub-system of the detector including resolution, efficiency as well as related variables for the kinematic fit and the secondary vertex reconstruction algorithm. It can flexibly adjust the responses of each sub-detector system and is a critical tool for the STCF R\&D program.

description: We present experiments on two-photon excitation of ${\rm ^{87}}$Rb atoms to Rydberg states. For this purpose, two continuous-wave (cw)-laser systems for both 780 nm and 480 nm have been set up. These systems are optimized to a small linewidth (well below 1 MHz) to get both an efficient excitation process and good spectroscopic resolution. To test the performance of our laser system, we investigated the Stark splitting of Rydberg states. For n=40 we were able to see the hyperfine levels splitting in the electrical field for different finestructure states. To show the ability of spatially selective excitation to Rydberg states, we excited rubidium atoms in an electrical field gradient and investigated both linewidths and lineshifts. Furthermore we were able to excite the atoms selectively from the two hyperfine ground states to Rydberg states. Finally, we investigated the Autler-Townes splitting of the 5S$_{1/2}$$\to$5P$_{3/2}$ transition via a Rydberg state to determine the Rabi frequency of this excitation step.

description: Cyclin D1, an important component of cell cycle and a protein with known oncogenic potential, is over expressed in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). MCL is a distinct clinical pathologic subtype of B cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma often associated with poor prognosis. New therapeutic approaches based on boosting anti-tumor immunity are being developed. Targeting cyclin D1 for MCL is rendering an interesting target for immunotherapy. However, the knowledge on the frequency and profile of cyclin D1-specific T cells in MCL patients is fragmented.

Here, we show a novel strategy for the development of recombinant vaccines carrying cyclin D1 cancer antigens that can be targeted to dendritic cells (DCs) via CD40.

New scenarios of high-energy particle collisions near wormholes

description: We suggest two new scenarios of high-energy particle collisions in the background of a wormhole. In scenario 1 the novelty consists in that the effect does not require two particles coming from different mouths. Instead, all such scenarios of high energy collisions develop, when an experimenter sends particles towards a wormhole from the same side of the throat. For static wormholes, this approach leads to indefinitely large energy in the center of mass. For rotating wormholes, it makes possible the super-Penrose process (unbounded energies measured at infinity). In scenario 2, one of colliding particles oscillates near the wormhole throat from the very beginning. In this sense, scenario 2 is intermediate between the standard one and scenario 1 since the particle under discussion does not come from infinity at all.

description: The tradition in Navier-Stokes analysis of finding estimates in terms of the Grashof number $\bG$, whose character depends on the ratio of the forcing to the viscosity $ν$, means that it is difficult to make comparisons with other results expressed in terms of Reynolds number $\Rey$, whose character depends on the fluid response to the forcing. The first task of this paper is to apply the approach of Doering and Foias \cite{DF} to the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations on a periodic domain $[0,L]^{2}$ by estimating quantities of physical relevance, particularly long-time averages $\left$, in terms of the Reynolds number $\Rey = U\ell/ν$, where $U^{2}= L^{-2}\left$ and $\ell$ is the forcing scale. In particular, the Constantin-Foias-Temam upper bound \cite{CFT} on the attractor dimension converts to $a_{\ell}^{2}\Rey(1 + \ln\Rey)^{1/3}$, while the estimate for the inverse Kraichnan length is $(a_{\ell}^{2}\Rey)^{1/2}$, where $a_{\ell}$ is the aspect ratio of the forcing. Other inverse length scales, based on time averages, and associated with higher derivatives, are estimated in a similar manner. The second task is to address the issue of intermittency : it is shown how the time axis is broken up into very short intervals on which various quantities have lower bounds, larger than long time-averages, which are themselves interspersed by longer, more quiescent, intervals of time.

description: We present the structures of putative global potential energy minima for clusters bound by the Stockmayer (Lennard-Jones plus point dipole) potential. A rich variety of structures is revealed as the cluster size and dipole strength are varied. Most remarkable are groups of closed-loop structures with the topology of knots and links. Despite the large number of possibilities, energetically optimal structures exhibit only a few such topologies.

Hydrogen Bonding-directed Sequential 1,6/1,4-Addition of Heteroatom Nucleophiles onto Electron-deficient 1,3-Diynes

description: A sequential inter- and intramolecular 1,6/1,4-addition on electron-deficient 1,3-diynes conjugated with a ketone, ester, or imide functionality is described. This tandem process is effectively directed by a propargylic -OH or -NH functionality. Alcohols, amines, and thiols show excellent reactivity for the initial 1,6-addition. The addition of amines occurs at ambient temperature, whereas other nucleophiles require high temperatures up to 100 °C and a base additive such as DABCO. Substrates with propargylic hydrogen undergo double bond isomerization at higher temperatures (70-100 °C) to form furan and pyrrole rings. Nonenolizable 1,3-diynones with an electron-withdrawing group provide good yields (72-86%) with most nucleophiles.
Photometric redshift of the GRB 981226 host galaxy

description: No optical afterglow was found for the dark burst GRB 981226 and hence no absorption redshift has been obtained. We here use ground-based and space imaging observations to analyse the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the host galaxy. By comparison with synthetic template spectra we determine the photometric redshift of the GRB 981226 host to be z_phot = 1.11+/-0.06 (68% confidence level). While the age-metallicity degeneracy for the host SED complicates the determination of accurate ages, metallicity, and extinction, the photometric redshift is robust. The inferred z_phot value is also robust compared to a Bayesian redshift estimator which gives z_phot=0.94+/-0.13. The characteristics for this host are similar to other GRB hosts previously examined. Available low resolution spectra show no emission lines at the expected wavelengths. The photometric redshift estimate indicates an isotropic energy release consistent with the Amati relation for this GRB which had a spectrum characteristic of an X-ray flash.

Low temperature dynamics of kinks on Ising interfaces

description: The anisotropic motion of an interface driven by its intrinsic curvature or by an external field is investigated in the context of the kinetic Ising model in both two and three dimensions. We derive in two dimensions (2d) a continuum evolution equation for the density of kinks by a time-dependent and nonlocal mapping to the asymmetric exclusion process. Whereas kinks execute random walks biased by the external field and pile up vertically on the physical 2d lattice, then execute hard-core biased random walks on a transformed 1d lattice. Their density obeys a nonlinear diffusion equation which can be transformed into the standard expression for the interface velocity v = M[(gamma + gamma'')kappa + H]$, where M, gamma + gamma'', and kappa are the interface mobility, stiffness, and curvature, respectively. In 3d, we obtain the velocity of a curved interface near the <100> orientation from an analysis of the self-similar evolution of 2d shrinking terraces. We show that this velocity is consistent with the one predicted from the 3d tensorial generalization of the law for anisotropic curvature-driven motion. In this generalization, both the interface stiffness tensor and the curvature tensor are singular at the <100> orientation. However, their product, which determines the interface velocity, is smooth. In addition, we illustrate how this kink-based kinetic description provides a useful framework for studying more complex situations by modeling the effect of immobile dilute impurities.

description: For several decades, the $σ/f_0(500)$ and $κ/K_0^*(700)$ resonances have been subject to long-standing debate. Both their existence and properties were controversial until very recently. In this tutorial review we compare model-independent dispersive and analytic techniques versus unitarized Chiral Perturbation Theory, when applied to the lightest scalar mesons $σ/f_0(500)$ and $κ/K_0^*(700)$. Generically, the former have settled the long-standing controversy about the existence of these states, providing a precise determination of their parameters, whereas unitarization of chiral effective theories allows us to understand their nature, spectroscopic classification and dependence on QCD parameters. Here we review in a pedagogical way their uses, advantages and caveats.

description: Farm-to-retail milk price spreads increased significantly during late 1990 and early 1991 as farm prices decreased while retail prices either stayed the same or else went down more slowly. In this report, farm-level fluid milk prices and processor costs are estimated from USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service data and from firm level data acquired from a private cost-accounting company for the period 1974-91. These data indicate that the greatest portion of the farm-to-retail price spread increase occurred at the retailer level. Processor profits also increased but not enough to account for the increased price spread. Comparisons of the fluid milk price spread with other food price spreads indicate that the milk price spread had lagged behind other food price spreads since 1986 but then caught up in 1990 and 1991. A study of price transmission between 1983 and 1990 indicates that retail prices react more quickly and completely to farm price increases than to farm price decreases.
Dissipationless collapse, weak homology and central cores of elliptical galaxies

description: By means of high-resolution N-body simulations we revisited the dissipationless collapse scenario for galaxy formation. We considered both single-component collapses and collapses of a cold stellar distribution in a live dark matter halo. Single-component collapses lead to stellar systems whose projected profiles are fitted very well by the Sersic R^(1/m) law with 3.6 < m < 8. The stellar end-products of collapses in a dark matter halo are still well described by the R^(1/m) law, but with 1.9 < m < 12, where the lowest m values are obtained when the halo is dominant. In all the explored cases the profiles at small radii deviate from their global best-fit R^(1/m) model, being significantly flatter. The break-radius values are comparable with those measured in `core' elliptical galaxies, and are directly related to the coldness of the initial conditions. The dissipationless collapse of initially cold stellar distributions in pre-existing dark matter haloes may thus have a role in determining the observed weak homology of elliptical galaxies.
