description: In this letter we study the process of gluon fusion into a pair of Higgs bosons in a model with one universal extra dimension. We find that the contributions from the extra top quark Kaluza-Klein excitations lead to a Higgs pair production cross section at the LHC that can be significantly altered compared to the Standard Model value for small values of the compactification scale.

Abstract - Noise shaping is a powerful technique that helps improve the overall accuracy of a data converter. While this technique is widely used in the context of delta sigma modulators, noise shaping is also gaining popularity in other kinds of converters such as SARs. This tutorial will present the fundamentals of noise shaping along with the architectural view of their application in different data converters such as ?? modulators and SARs. Circuit implementation of key building blocks along with challenges in realization and their mitigation strategies will be discussed as well.

description: We present a summary of a recent workshop held at Duke University on Partonic Transverse Momentum in Hadrons: Quark Spin-Orbit Correlations and Quark-Gluon Interactions. The transversemomentum- dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs), parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions, and multi-parton correlation functions, were discussed extensively at the Duke workshop. In this paper, we summarize first the theoretical issues concerning the study of partonic structure of hadrons at a future electron-ion collider (EIC) with emphasis on the TMDs. We then present simulation results on experimental studies of TMDs through measurements of single-spin asymmetries (SSA) from semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) processes with an EIC, and discuss the requirement of the detector for SIDIS measurements. The dynamics of parton correlations in the nucleon is further explored via a study of SSA in D (D) production at large transverse momenta with the aim of accessing the unexplored tri-gluon correlation functions. The workshop participants identified the SSA measurements in SIDIS as a golden program to study TMDs in both the sea and valence quark regions and to study the role of gluons, with the Sivers asymmetry measurements as examples. Such measurements will lead to major advancement in our understanding of TMDs in the valence quark region, and more importantly also allow for the investigation of TMDs in the unexplored sea quark region along with a study of their evolution. © The Author(s) 2011.

description: We study the statistical properties of Ising spin chains with finite (although arbitrary large) range of interaction between the elements. We examine mesoscopic subsystems (fragments of an Ising chain) with the lengths comparable with the interaction range. The equivalence of the Ising chains and the multi-step Markov sequences is used for calculating different non-additive statistical quantities of a chain and its fragments. In particular, we study the variance of fluctuating magnetization of fragments, magnetization of the chain in the external magnetic field, etc. Asymptotical expressions for the non-additive energy and entropy of the mesoscopic fragments are derived in the limiting cases of weak and strong interactions.

The bipartite entanglement decay rate, as bounded from above by the negativity, is found to be greater than or equal to the dephasing-decoherence rates characterized by the decay of off-diagonal elements in the corresponding full density matrix describing the system or the reduced density matrix describing either qutrit, extending previous results for qubit pairs subject to such noise.

Electric-field-dependent dynamic polarizability and state-insensitive conditions for optical trapping of diatomic polar molecules
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2010
Subjects: quant-ph

description: Selection of state-insensitive or "magic" trapping conditions with ultracold atoms or molecules, where pairs of internal states experience identical trapping potentials, brings substantial benefits to precision measurements and quantum computing schemes. Working at such conditions could ensure that the detrimental effects of inevitable inhomogeneities across an ultracold sample are significantly reduced. However, this aspect of confinement remains unexplored for ultracold polar molecules. Here, we present means to control the ac Stark shift of rotational states of ultracold diatomic polar molecules, when subjected to both trapping laser light and an external electric field. We show that both the strength and relative orientation of the two fields influence the trapping potential. In particular, we predict "magic electric field strengths" and a "magic angle," where the Stark shift is independent of the dc external field for certain rotational states of the molecule. © 2010 The American Physical Society.

description: Modeling dialog as a collaborative activity consists notably in specifying the content of the Conversational Common Ground and the kind of social mental state involved. In previous work (Saget, 2006), we claim that Collective Acceptance is the proper social attitude for modeling Conversational Common Ground in the particular case of goal-oriented dialog. In this paper, a formalization of Collective Acceptance is shown, besides elements in order to integrate this attitude in a rational model of dialog are provided; and finally, a model of referential acts as being part of a collaborative activity is presented. The particular case of reference has been chosen in order to exemplify our claims.

description: Using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we derive an effective Hamiltonian for an optomechanical system that leads to a nonlinear Kerr effect in the system's vacuum. The oscillating mirror at one edge of the optomechanical system induces a squeezing effect in the intensity spectrum of the cavity field. A near-resonant laser field is applied at the other edge to drive the cavity field, in order to enhance the Kerr effect. We also propose a quantum-nondemolition-measurement setup to monitor a system with two cavities separated by a common oscillating mirror, based on our effective Hamiltonian approach.

Localities and specimens found: 17 – 2♀; 26 – 2♀, 1♀ ov, 1♀ em, 6j.
Distribution and ecology. According to the latest ideas, Ch. ventricosus s. str. is distributed only in the Oriental biogeographic realm (Rajapaksa & Fernando 1986a; Kotov et al. 2013b; Sinev & Korovchinsky 2013; Sinev et al. 2015). This is a well-known but in patches uncommon member of the genus in the region (Chiang & Du 1979; Idris 1983; Michael & Sharma 1988; Sanoamuang 1998; Tanaka & Ohtaka 2010; Chatterjee et al. 2013; Korovchinsky 2013; Kotov et al. 2013b; Van Damme et al. 2013; Ji et al. 2015; Sinev et al. 2015; Lopez et al. 2017; Sharma & Sharma 2017; Tiang-nga et al. 2020; Choedchim & Maiphae 2023). In Vietnam, the species has so far been recorded in several locations in the central and southern provinces (Sinev & Korovchinsky 2013; present study).
Chydorus ventricosus is a littoral species occurring in a wide range of water bodies and habitats, generally nonrunning (Idris 1983; Rajapaksa & Fernando 1986a; Michael & Sharma 1988; Sanoamuang 1998; Van Damme et al. 2013; Sinev et al. 2015; Choedchim & Maiphae 2023). We found some of its individuals in the coastal area of a natural lake and reservoir (see Appendix 1).
Remarks. Outside the Oriental area, the Ch. ventricosus -like populations should be revised as they most likely belong to other close relatives, including those not-yet-described (Rajapaksa & Fernando 1986a; Chatterjee et al. 2013; Kotov et al. 2013b; Van Damme et al. 2013). In addition, in the past, Ch. ventricosus was apparently often confused with other sibling species (e.g., Ch. reticulatus, Ch. sphaericus, Ch. pubescens, etc.) (Michael & Hann 1979; Frey 1982c; Rajapaksa & Fernando 1986a). Thus, the actual distribution of the species still needs to be clarified.

description: The thesis looks at wire rope safety barrier crashes that result in fatal and serious injury outcomes. Various crash datasets and computer simulation were used to investigate reasons for these severe crash outcomes. Findings suggested the injury outcomes were related to crash aspects such as impact speed and angle, and the possibility of adverse crash outcomes such as barrier penetration. These crash dynamics were found to be affected by design features of the wire rope safety barrier.

description: We investigate the entanglement properties of pure quantum states describing $n$ qubits. We characterize all multipartite states which can be maximally entangled to local auxiliary systems using controlled operations. A state has this property iff one can construct out of it an orthonormal basis by applying independent local unitary operations. This implies that those states can be used to encode locally the maximum amount of $n$ bits. Examples of these states are the so--called stabilizer states, which are used for quantum error correction and one--way quantum computing. We give a simple characterization of these states and construct a complete set of commuting unitary observables which characterize the state uniquely. Furthermore we show how these states can be prepared and discuss their applications.

description: High-permeability magnetic shields generate magnetic field noise that can limit the sensitivity of modern precision measurements. We show that calculations based on the fluctuation-dissipation theorem allow quantitative evaluation of magnetic field noise, either from current or magnetization fluctuations, inside enclosures made of high-permeability materials. Explicit analytical formulas for the noise are derived for a few axially symmetric geometries, which are compared with results of numerical finite element analysis. Comparison is made between noises caused by current and magnetization fluctuations inside a high-permeability shield and also between current-fluctuation-induced noises inside magnetic and non-magnetic conducting shells. A simple model is suggested to predict power-law decay of noise spectra beyond quasi-static regime. Our results can be used to assess noise from existing shields and to guide design of new shields for precision measurements.

description: A version of the time-parallel algorithm parareal is analyzed and applied to stochastic models in chemical kinetics. A fast predictor at the macroscopic scale (evaluated in serial) is available in the form of the usual reaction rate equations. A stochastic simulation algorithm is used to obtain an exact realization of the process at the mesoscopic scale (in parallel). The underlying stochastic description is a jump process driven by the Poisson measure. A convergence result in this arguably difficult setting is established suggesting that a homogenization of the solution is advantageous. We devise a simple but highly general such technique. Three numerical experiments on models representative to the field of computational systems biology illustrate the method. For non-stiff problems, it is shown that the method is able to quickly converge even when stochastic effects are present. For stiff problems we are instead able to obtain fast convergence to a homogenized solution. Overall, the method builds an attractive bridge between on the one hand, macroscopic deterministic scales and, on the other hand, mesoscopic stochastic ones. This construction is clearly possible to apply also to stochastic models within other fields.

description: We compute the luminosity function (LF) and the formation rate of long gamma ray bursts (GRBs) by fitting the observed differential peak flux distribution obtained by the BATSE experiment in two different scenarios: i) the GRB luminosity evolves with redshift and ii) GRBs form preferentially in low-metallicity environments. In both cases, model predictions are consistent with the Swift number counts and with the number of detections at z>2.5 and z>3.5. To discriminate between the two evolutionary scenarios, we compare the model results with the number of luminous bursts (i.e. with isotropic peak luminosity in excess of 10^53 erg s^-1) detected by Swift in its first three years of mission. Our sample conservatively contains only bursts with good redshift determination and measured peak energy. We find that pure luminosity evolution models can account for the number of sure identifications. In the case of a pure density evolution scenario, models with Z_th>0.3 Zsun are ruled out with high confidence. For lower metallicity thresholds, the model results are still statistically consistent with available lower limits. However, many factors can increase the discrepancy between model results and data, indicating that some luminosity evolution in the GRB LF may be needed also for such low values of Z_th. Finally, using these new constraints, we derive robust upper limits on the bright-end of the GRB LF, showing that this cannot be steeper than ~2.6.

Ethanol effects on the olivocerebellar system
Creators: name: Harris, David Platt
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The detrimental effect of ethanol on coordinated movement and the similarity of this effect to that of pathological damage to the cerebellum or the inferior olive (10) suggests that ethanol profoundly effects the olivocerebellar system. Each cerebellar Purkinje cell (PC) displays two distinct action potential responses: the simple spike (SS), evoked intrinsicly and via the parallel fibres, and the complex spike (CS), evoked via a solitary climbing fibre (CF) which originates from the 10. Ethanol (1.5 g/kg, i.v.) was found to have no significant effect on the CS activity evoked by direct electrical activation of CFs, while it significantly reduced, in parallel, that evoked by cerebral cortex stimulation and that occurring spontaneously. In addition, ethanol, applied both systemically and locally by micropressure, reduced the spontaneous activity of inferior olive (10) neurones. These results strongly suggest an action of ethanol local to the 10 nucleus, perhaps by a direct action on the 10 neurones themselves. Elimination of spontaneous CS activity by the electrolytic lesioning of the contralateral 10 did not significantly alter spontaneous SS firing rate. However, subsequent administration of ethanol i.v. did produce a significant increase of SS rate, indicating that only part of ethanol-evoked SS rate increase is dependant upon the reduction of CS activity. Simple spike regularity was not significantly altered by either 10 lesioning or i.v. ethanol. Ethanol applied locally to PC's by micropressure was found to reduce the period of inhibition evoked by local stimulation of the cerebellar cortex in the majority of the cells tested. This result is in agreement with the previously reported effects of intravenous ethanol on this inhibition, thought to be mediated by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Both intravenously and locally applied ethanol antagonized the inhibition of PC's evoked by locally applied GABA. These results, while in agreement, are contrary to the reported effects of ethanol in other systems. Intravenously administered ethanol did not significantly alter Golgi cell spontaneous firing, while it did significantly reduce the period of inhibition of Golgi cell firing evoked by 10 stimulation.

description: The orbital periods of most eclipsing cataclysmic binaries are not undergoing linear secular decreases of order a few parts per billion as expected from simple theory. Instead, they show several parts per million increases and decreases on timescales of years to decades, ascribed to magnetic effects in their donors, triple companions, or both. To directly test the triple companion hypothesis, we carried out a speckle imaging survey of six of the nearest and brightest cataclysmic variables. We found no main sequence companions earlier than spectral types M4V in the separation range 0.02" - 1.2", corresponding to projected linear separations of 2 - 100 AU, and periods of 3 - 1000 years. We conclude that main sequence triple companions to CVs are not very common, but cannot rule out the presence of the faintest M dwarfs or close brown dwarf companions.

We chose examples from expository accounts where direct use of available techniques gave practically useless answers. Careful treatment of these simple examples grew into bivariate modeling and Lancaster families. Since bounding rates of convergence is our primary focus, let us begin there. [arXiv:0808.3852]

The clastogenic activity of phenolic oxidation products

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Several epidemiological studies .have demonstrated the importance of diet in the development of gastro-intestinal carcinomas in man. This study examines the role of plant phenolics, major components of the human diet. Employing a CHO cell test system, it was observed that phenolics with at least two hydroxyl groups in the ortho position, relative to each other were particularly clastogenic. This activity was abolished by the addition of S9, a rat liver microsomal preparation. The clastogenic activity of these compounds was found to increase with time, alkaline pH, and the presence of transition metals. It was therefore deduced that the source of activity might be an oxidative by-product. High' pressure liquid chromatography was used to separate out these oxidative products. No activity was found to reside in any of the separated components or combinations of components. Further study therefore centred on oxidative products not retained by chromatography and on those labile to this.process. Under oxidative conditions, the presence of hydrogen peroxide was detected. Levels measured were sufficient to explain the clastogenic activity of completely oxidized solutions of phenolic acids. Addition of the enzyme, catalase, appeared to abolish all activity of completely oxidized solutions. Hydrogen peroxide could not, however, account for the genotoxic effects measured in freshly prepared solutions. The presence of superoxide was detected in actively oxidizing solutions of plant phenolics. Its production appeared to be pH-dependent. Addition of superoxide dismutase increased the clastogenic activity of compounds tested, presumably by converting superoxide to peroxide, a more stable oxidative by-product. Addition of tyrosinase, a monophenol oxidase, also increased the clastogenic activity of freshly prepared solutions. Since this enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of several phenolics without subsequent generation of peroxide, it was deduced that phenolic free radicals must also be present which could be at least partially responsible for the enhanced biological activity. Electron spin resonance proved this was the case. Using electron spin resonance, the primary oxidative products were characterized both at high pH and by enzymatic activation. The results obtained agree with those published in the literature. Several reports in the literature have suggested that phenolics may also act as free radical scavengers. The importance of plant phenolics in diet may therefore depend on the oxidative conditions of the system to be tested. Under oxidative conditions, free radicals appear to be generated, which are capable of causing mutations and chromosomal rearrangements. Phenolic oxidation products may therefore play a role as initiators and promotors of carcinogenesis. However, under alternate conditions, phenolics may also act to scavenge free radicals, and could therefore be classed as inhibitors of carcinogenesis.

description: We use a post-Newtonian diagnostic tool to examine numerically generated quasiequilibrium initial data sets for non-spinning double neutron star and neutron star-black hole binary systems. The PN equations include the effects of tidal interactions, parametrized by the compactness of the neutron stars and by suitable values of ``apsidal'' constants, which measure the degree of distortion of stars subjected to tidal forces. We find that the post-Newtonian diagnostic agrees well with the double neutron star initial data, typically to better than half a percent except where tidal distortions are becoming extreme. We show that the differences could be interpreted as representing small residual eccentricity in the initial orbits. In comparing the diagnostic with preliminary numerical data on neutron star-black hole binaries, we find less agreement.

Modeling and Simulation of Large-Scale Power Electronics in Grid Session 3: Subtopic of “Simulation of Power Electronics in Power Systems: Advanced Power Electronics Integration Use (Slides)
Creators: Suman Debnath
Publisher: name: IEEE
Year: 2021

Modeling and simulation of large power electronic systems and their complex control methods presents a significant challenge (eg, Canyon 2 fire related disturbance affected PV plants). The challenge is associated with developing high-fidelity models of such systems with an acceptable representation of the complete system and simulating the system in a reasonable timeframe. In this tutorial, advanced simulation techniques are discussed to speed-up the simulation of high-fidelity electromagnetic transient (EMT) models of power electronics. The advanced methods include separation of systems utilizing numerical stiffness, time-constants, parallel-in-time methods, and high-performance computing algorithms. To evaluate the performance of the advanced complex control methods associated with the power electronic systems, detailed ac grid models are required of the surrounding region (known as buffer zones) where the power electronics is integrated. The tools that can assist such developments are introduced in this tutorial. Additionally, to identify the impact of such power electronics in large systems, hybrid simulation of EMT- transient stability (TS) models are required with TS models representing the transmission grid. These simulation methods and tools are described with example studies.

description: By means of high-resolution angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) we have studied the fermiology of 2H transition metal dichalcogenide polytypes TaSe2, NbSe2, and Cu0.2NbS2. The tight-binding model of the electronic structure, extracted from ARPES spectra for all three compounds, was used to calculate the Lindhard function (bare spin susceptibility), which reflects the propensity to charge density wave (CDW) instabilities observed in TaSe2 and NbSe2. We show that though the Fermi surfaces of all three compounds possess an incommensurate nesting vector in the close vicinity of the CDW wave vector, the nesting and ordering wave vectors do not exactly coincide, and there is no direct relationship between the magnitude of the susceptibility at the nesting vector and the CDW transition temperature. The nesting vector persists across the incommensurate CDW transition in TaSe2 as a function of temperature despite the observable variations of the Fermi surface geometry in this temperature range. In Cu0.2NbS2 the nesting vector is present despite different doping level, which lets us expect a possible enhancement of the CDW instability with Cu-intercalation in the CuxNbS2 family of materials.
