description: We perform 3D lithography simulations by using a finite-element solver. To proof applicability to real 3D problems we investigate DUV light propagation through a structure of size 9 microns times 4 microns times 65 nm. On this relatively large computational domain we perform rigorous computations (No Hopkins) taking into account a grid of 11 times 21 source points with two polarization directions each. We obtain well converged results with an accuracy of the diffraction orders of about one percent. The results compare well to experimental aerial imaging results. We further investigate the convergence of 3D solutions towards quasi-exact results obtained with different methods.

description: Recent observations of high energy (> 20 keV) X-ray emission in a few clusters of galaxies broaden our knowledge of physical phenomena in the intracluster space. This emission is likely to be nonthermal, probably resulting from Compton scattering of relativistic electrons by the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. Direct evidence for the presence of relativistic electrons in some 50 clusters comes from measurements of extended radio emission in their central regions. We briefly review the main results from observations of extended regions of radio emission, and Faraday rotation measurements of background and cluster radio sources. The main focus of the review are searches for nonthermal X-ray emission conducted with past and currently operating satellites, which yielded appreciable evidence for nonthermal emission components in the spectra of a few clusters. This evidence is clearly not unequivocal, due to substantial observational and systematic uncertainties, in addition to virtually complete lack of spatial information. If indeed the emission has its origin in Compton scattering of relativistic electrons by the CMB, then the mean magnetic field strength and density of relativistic electrons in the cluster can be directly determined. Knowledge of these basic nonthermal quantities is valuable for the detailed description of processes in intracluster gas and for the origin of magnetic fields.

description: In this work, we demonstrate the use of a Rydberg atom-based sensor for determining the angle-of-arrival of an incident radio-frequency (RF) wave or signal. The technique uses electromagnetically induced transparency in Rydberg atomic vapor in conjunction with a heterodyne Rydberg atom-based mixer. The Rydberg atom mixer measures the phase of the incident RF wave at two different locations inside an atomic vapor cell. The phase difference at these two locations is related to the direction of arrival of the incident RF wave. To demonstrate this approach, we measure phase differences of an incident 19.18 GHz wave at two locations inside a vapor cell filled with cesium atoms for various incident angles. Comparisons of these measurements to both full-wave simulation and to a plane-wave theoretical model show that these atom-based sub-wavelength phase measurements can be used to determine the angle-of-arrival of an RF field.

Sensor-assisted fault mitigation in quantum computation

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a method to assist fault mitigation in quantum computation through the use of sensors co-located near physical qubits. Specifically, we consider using transition edge sensors co-located on silicon substrates hosting superconducting qubits to monitor for energy injection from ionizing radiation, which has been demonstrated to increase decoherence in transmon qubits. We generalize from these two physical device concepts and explore the potential advantages of co-located sensors to assist fault mitigation in quantum computation. In the simplest scheme, co-located sensors beneficially assist rejection of calculations potentially affected by environmental disturbances. Investigating the potential computational advantage further required development of an extension to the standard formulation of quantum error correction. In a specific case of the standard three-qubit, bit-flip quantum error correction code, we show that given a 20% overall error probability per qubit, approximately 90% of repeated calculation attempts are correctable. However, when sensor-detectable errors account for 45% of overall error probability, the use of co-located sensors uniquely associated with independent qubits boosts the fraction of correct final-state calculations to 96%, at the cost of rejecting 7% of repeated calculation attempts.

description: We determine the full post-Newtonian limit of theories of gravity that extend general relativity by replacing the Ricci scalar, R, in the generating Lagrangian by some analytic function, f(R). We restrict ourselves to theories that admit Minkowski space as a suitable background, and perform a perturbative expansion in the manner prescribed by the parameterised post-Newtonian formalism. Extra potentials are found to be present that are not accounted for in the usual treatment, and a discussion is provided on how they may be used to observationally distinguished these theories from general relativity at the post-Newtonian level.

description: In R-parity conserving supersymmetric models, sleptons are produced in pairs at hadron colliders. We show that measurements of the longitudinal single-spin asymmetry at possible polarization upgrades of existing colliders allow for a direct extraction of the slepton mixing angle. A calculation of the transverse-momentum spectrum shows the importance of resummed contributions at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy in the small and intermediate transverse-momentum regions and little dependence on unphysical scales and non-perturbative contributions.

description: Die Systemtheorie Niklas Luhmanns gehört zu den festen Bestandteilen des literaturwissenschaftlichen Theoriebestandes. Trotzdem blieb für die Literaturwissenschaft bislang die Frage offen, wie das literarische System im Unterschied zu anderen Systemen die Anschlussfähigkeit seiner Kommunikationen sicherstellt. Ausgehend von Luhmanns Kommunikationsbegriff untersucht der Beitrag die komplexe Operationsweise des literarischen Systems und seinen Umgang mit Information, Mitteilung und Verstehen. Die Erörterung des Problems, dass literarische Kommunikation auf der Basis von Texten abläuft, führt zu einer neuen Perspektive auf die Autopoiesis und die Selbstorganisation des Literatursystems. Anhand dieses systemtheoretischen Modells erklärt sich erstens, wie das System trotz fortwährender Existenzbedrohung seine Operativität aufrecht erhält, und zweitens, wie es zur Einteilung in Gattungen und Epochen kommt.

description: We propose a multi-agent based computational framework for modeling decision-making and strategic interaction at micro level for smart vehicles in a smart world. The concepts of Markov game and best response dynamics are heavily leveraged. Our aim is to make the framework conceptually sound and computationally practical for a range of realistic applications, including micro path planning for autonomous vehicles. To this end, we first convert the would-be stochastic game problem into a closely related deterministic one by introducing risk premium in the utility function for each individual agent. We show how the sub-game perfect Nash equilibrium of the simplified deterministic game can be solved by an algorithm based on best response dynamics. In order to better model human driving behaviors with bounded rationality, we seek to further simplify the solution concept by replacing the Nash equilibrium condition with a heuristic and adaptive optimization with finite look-ahead anticipation. In addition, the algorithm corresponding to the new solution concept drastically improves the computational efficiency. To demonstrate how our approach can be applied to realistic traffic settings, we conduct a simulation experiment: to derive merging and yielding behaviors on a double-lane highway with an unexpected barrier. Despite assumption differences involved in the two solution concepts, the derived numerical solutions show that the endogenized driving behaviors are very similar. We also briefly comment on how the proposed framework can be further extended in a number of directions in our forthcoming work, such as behavioral calibration using real traffic video data, computational mechanism design for traffic policy optimization, and so on.

description: Η σεξουαλική παρενόχληση στον εργασιακό χώρο αποτελεί καταρχήν κοινωνικό πρόβλημα. Είναι συμπεριφορά η οποία αποτελεί έκφανση ιδιότυπων μορφών κυριαρχίας και ιεραρχίας που διασύρουν την προσωπικότητα του θύματος, με πολλές κατ’ ακολουθία ψυχολογικές για αυτό επιπτώσεις. Η συνέπεια αυτής της συμπεριφοράς είναι η επιδείνωση των συνθηκών εργασίας κυρίως για τις γυναίκες, η άμβλυνση της ανισότητας των φύλων και η απώλεια των εργασιακών δικαιωμάτων. Είναι πασιφανές ότι η σεξουαλική παρενόχληση στο χώρο εργασίας συνιστά συμπεριφορά αντικοινωνική, η οποία παραβιάζει ευθέως τις αρχές που διέπουν την εργασία όπως τα θεμελιώδη δικαιώματα του ατόμου στην εργασία, την αρχή της ίσης μεταχείρισης αλλά και την ίδια την ανθρώπινη αξιοπρέπεια. Η επανάληψη της ως άνω συμπεριφοράς και η εξάπλωσή της καθιστά αυτή τη συμπεριφορά κοινωνικό πλέον πρόβλημα, το οποίο πέρα από τις γνωστές σε όλους ψυχολογικές καταπτώσεις του θύματος, δημιουργεί και ασυμμετρία στα εργασιακά δικαιώματα. Στα πλαίσια αυτά το θέμα που πραγματεύεται η εργασία είναι το ζήτημα της σεξουαλικής παρενόχλησης στο χώρο εργασίας. Το ζήτημα αυτό, είναι εξαιρετικά ενδιαφέρον και ταυτόχρονα πολύ επίκαιρο, αφού τον τελευταίο καιρό έχει αρχίσει να απασχολεί και την ελληνική κοινωνία με αφορμή την ψήφιση του νέου νόμου 3488/2006. Η έρευνα του θέματος αφορά τον ελληνικό χώρο, έτσι ώστε να είναι εφικτή η όσο το δυνατόν καλύτερη και αρτιότερη παρουσίαση του θέματος μέσα στα τοπικά όρια της Ελλάδας.
description: Sexual harassment in the workplace is a social problem in principle. It is conduct which is a manifestation specialties forms of domination and hierarchy denigrate the personality of the victim, with many in this sequence of psychological effects. The consequence of this behavior is the deterioration of working conditions especially for women, reduce gender inequality and the loss of employment rights. It is clear that sexual harassment in the workplace is antisocial behavior, which directly violates the principles governing the work as a fundamental human right to work, the principle of equal treatment and the same human dignity. The repetition of that behavior and the spread makes this behavior more social problem, which in addition to all the known psychological activation of the victim, and creates an asymmetry in labor rights. In this context the issue addressed in this work is the issue of sexual harassment in the workplace. This issue is extremely interesting and very timely, since in recent times have started and the Greek society on the occasion of the adoption of the new law 3488/2006. The investigation of the matter for the Greek area in order to allow for possible better and more thorough presentation of the issue within the local limits of Greece.

description: Nonlinear programming targets nonlinear optimization with constraints, which is a generic yet complex methodology involving humans for problem modeling and algorithms for problem solving. We address the particularly hard challenge of supporting domain experts in handling, understanding, and trouble-shooting high-dimensional optimization with a large number of constraints. Leveraging visual analytics, users are supported in exploring the computation process of nonlinear constraint optimization. Our system was designed for robot motion planning problems and developed in tight collaboration with domain experts in nonlinear programming and robotics. We report on the experiences from this design study, illustrate the usefulness for relevant example cases, and discuss the extension to visual analytics for nonlinear programming in general.

Critical properties of the XXZ model with long-range interactions on the double chain

description: The $XXZ$ model $(s = 1/2)$ in a transverse field on a double chain with a uniform long-range interaction among the $z$ components of the spins is considered. The nearest-neighbour interactions are restricted to the components in the $xy$ plane and to the spins within the same chain leg, such that the Hamiltonian is given by $H = -\sum_{m=1}^{2} J_{m} \sum_{j=1}^{N}(S_{m,j}^{x}S_{m, j+1}^{x} + S_{m,j}^{y}S_{m,j+1}^{y}) - \frac{I}{N}\sum_{m,n=1}^{2} \sum_{j,k=1}^{N}S_{m,j}^{z}S_{n,k}^{z}-h\sum_{m=1}^{2} \sum_{j=1}^{N}S_{m,j}^{z}$, where $N$ is the number of sites of the lattice and $m,n$ $(m,n = 1, 2)$ label the chain legs. The model is solved exactly by introducing the Jordan-Wigner and integral Gaussian transformations, which map the Hamiltonian in a non-interacting fermion system and corresponds to an extension of the model recently studied by the authors for a single chain. The equation of state is obtained in closed form, and the critical classical (at $T > 0$) and quantum (at $T = 0$) behaviours can be determined exactly. The quantum critical surface is determined in the space generated by the transverse field and interaction parameters, and the crossover lines separating the different critical regimes are also obtained. It is also shown that, differently from the results obtained for the single chain, the system can present multiple quantum transitions.

Evaluation of Change Interval Treatments for Traffic Signals at High-Speed Intersections

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: A large number of traffic accidents at signalized intersections on high-speed roadways occur during or just after the change interval. The green extension system (GES) has been used extensively in Kentucky as a method of alleviating the problem related to the dilemma zone. An alternate method of handling this problem involves warning drivers that the signal indication is about to change from green to red using advance warning flashers (AWF). The objectives of this study were: 1) to evaluate the alternative methods (GES or AWF) which can be used to lessen the problem associated with the dilemma zone which occurs at traffic signals, specifically on high-speed roadways and 2) to determine conditions where use of the AWF may be needed.  The GES was judged to be effective and its use was recommended to be continued at high speed intersections. The use of an AWF should be limited to locations where either an existing or high potential accident problem exists. Guidelines and evaluation factors to consider in determining the use of an AWF were identified. These factors included: accident history, speed limit, truck volume, sight distance, grade, red light violation rate, traffic volume, and adjacent bridge deck. The design of an AWF was discussed.

description: We show how the categorial approach to inverse monoids can be described as a certain endofunctor (which we call the partialization functor) of some category. In this paper we show that this functor can be used to obtain several recently defined inverse monoids, and use it to define a new object, which we call the inverse braid-permutation monoid. A presentation for this monoid is obtained. Finally, we study some abstract properties of the partialization functor and its iterations. This leads to a categorification of a monoid of all order preserving maps, and series of orthodox generalizations of the symmetric inverse semigroup.

description: We review observations of extended regions of radio emission in clusters; these include diffuse emission in `relics', and the large central regions commonly referred to as `halos'. The spectral observations, as well as Faraday rotation measurements of background and cluster radio sources, provide the main evidence for large-scale intracluster magnetic fields and significant densities of relativistic electrons. Implications from these observations on acceleration mechanisms of these electrons are reviewed, including turbulent and shock acceleration, and also the origin of some of the electrons in collisions of relativistic protons by ambient protons in the (thermal) gas. Improved knowledge of non-thermal phenomena in clusters requires more extensive and detailed radio measurements; we briefly review prospects for future observations.

description: The rheology of a 3-dimensional granular system consisting of frictional elongated particles was investigated by means of discrete element model (DEM) calculations. A homogenous shear flow of frictional spherocyliders was simulated, and a number of rheological quantities were calculated. In the framework of the $μ(I)$ rheology, the effective friction was found to be a non-monotonic function of the aspect ratio for interparticle friction coefficient $μ_p \lesssim 0.4$, while it was an increasing function for larger $μ_p$. We reveal the microscopic origin of this peculiar non-monotonic behavior. We show the non-trivial dependence of the velocity fluctuations on the dissipation regime, and trace back the behavior of the normal stress differences to particle-level quantities.

description: The NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS collected in 2003 and 2004 large samples of the decays K+- -> pi+ pi- e+- nu (Ke4+-), K+- -> pi0 pi0 e+- nu (Ke400) and K+- -> pi0 pi0 pi+-. From the Ke4+- form factors and from the cusp in the M00^2 distribution of the K+- -> pi0 pi0 pi+- events, the pi-pi scattering lengths a00 and a20 could be extracted. This measurement is a fundamental test of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). The branching fraction and form factors of the Ke400 decay were precisely measured, using a much larger data sample than in previous experiments.

description: Despite the immense progress in the recent years, efficient solutions for monitoring remote areas are still missing today. This is especially notable in the context of versatile maritime and offshore use cases, owing to a broader span of operating regions and a lack of radio network infrastructures. In this article, we address the noted challenge by delivering a conceptual solution based on the convergence of three emerging technologies -- unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), battery-less sensors, and wireless powered communication networks (WPCNs). Our contribution offers a systematic description of the ecosystem related to the proposed solution by identifying its key actors and design dimensions together with the relevant resources and performance metrics. A system-level modeling-based evaluation of an illustrative scenario delivers deeper insights into the considered operation and the associated trade-offs. Further, unresolved challenges and perspective directions are underpinned for a subsequent study.

description: Thermostatically controlled loads such as refrigerators are exceptionally suitable as a flexible demand resource. This paper derives a decentralised load control algorithm for refrigerators. It is adapted from an existing continuous time control approach, with the aim to achieve low computational complexity and an ability to handle discrete time steps of variable length -- desirable features for embedding in appliances and high-throughput simulations. Simulation results of large populations of heterogeneous appliances illustrate the accurate aggregate control of power consumption and high computational efficiency. Tracking accuracy is quantified as a function of population size and time step size, and correlations in the tracking error are investigated. The controller is shown to be robust to errors in model specification and to sudden perturbations in the form of random refrigerator door openings.

description: Comet 9P/Tempel 1 was the target of a multi-wavelength worldwide investigation in 2005. The NASA Deep Impact mission reached the comet on 4.24 July 2005, delivering a 370 kg impactor which hit the comet at 10.3 km/s. Following this impact, a cloud of gas and dust was excavated from the comet nucleus. The comet was observed in 2005 prior to and after the impact, at 18-cm wavelength with the Nançay radio telescope, in the millimetre range with the IRAM and CSO radio telescopes, and at 557 GHz with the Odin satellite. Post-impact observations at IRAM and CSO did not reveal a significant change of the outgassing rates and relative abundances, with the exception of CH_3OH which may have been more abundant by up to one order of magnitude in the ejecta. Most other variations are linked to the intrinsic variability of the comet. The Odin satellite monitored nearly continuously the H_2O line at 557 GHz during the 38 hours following the impact on the 4th of July, in addition to weekly monitoring. Once the periodic variations related to the nucleus rotation are removed, a small increase of outgassing related to the impact is present, which corresponds to the release of \approx 5000+/-2000 tons of water. Two other bursts of activity, also observed at other wavelengths, were seen on 23 June and 7 July; they correspond to even larger releases of gas.

description: We investigate entanglement in the above-threshold Optical Parametric Oscillator, both theoretically and experimentally, and discuss its potential applications to quantum information. The fluctuations measured in the subtraction of signal and idler amplitude quadratures are $Δ^2 \hat p_-=0.50(1)$, or $-3.01(9)$ dB, and in the sum of phase quadratures are $Δ^2 \hatq_+=0.73(1)$, or $-1.37(6)$ dB. A detailed experimental study of the noise behavior as a function of pump power is presented, and discrepancies with theory are discussed.

description: We have used the RXTE and INTEGRAL satellites simultaneously to observe the High Mass X-ray binary IGR J19140+0951. The spectra obtained in the 3-80 keV range have allowed us to perform a precise spectral analysis of the system along its binary orbit. The spectral evolution confirms the supergiant nature of the companion star and the neutron star nature of the compact object. Using a simple stellar wind model to describe the evolution of the photoelectric absorption, we were able to restrict the orbital inclination angle in the range 37-75 degrees. This analysis leads to a wind mass-loss rate from the companion star of ~ 10e-7 Msun/year, consistent with its expected spectral type. We have detected a soft excess in at least three observations, for the first time for this source. Such soft excesses have been reported in several HMXBs in the past. We discuss the possible origin of this excess, and suggest, based on its spectral properties and occurrences prior to the superior conjunction, that it may be explained as the reprocessing of the X-ray emission originating from the neutron star by the surrounding ionised gas.

description: There are several indications that stellar mergers are common outcomes of binary evolution. Mergers involving white dwarfs are linked to several classes of transients, such as supernova type, and may leave imprints in other observables as well, e.g. the WD mass distribution. The alleged excess of WDs with masses around 0.8 solar masses has been linked to double white dwarf mergers. Here we present our results of a population synthesis study focused on stellar mergers. From a theoretical point of view, do we expect to see the imprint of double white dwarf mergers and other mergers on the WD mass distribution? And how about other demographics?
Computing Limb Darkening Coefficients from Stellar Atmosphere Models

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We explore the sensitivity of limb darkening coefficients computed from stellar atmosphere models to different least-squares fitting methods. We demonstrate that conventional methods are strongly biased to fitting the stellar limb. Our suggested method of fitting by minimizing the radially integrated squared residual yields improved fits with better flux conservation. The differences of the obtained coefficients from commonly used values are observationally significant. We show that the new values are in better agreement with solar limb darkening measurements as well as with coefficients reported from analyses of eclipsing binary light curves.

description: The characteristic microstructure of Sm(Co,Fe,Cu,Zr)$_z$ alloys with SmCo$_5$ cell walls in Sm$_2$Co$_{17}$ cells, all intersected by Zr-rich platelets, makes them some of the best performing high-temperature permanent magnets. Plentiful research has been performed to tailor the microstructure at the nanoscale, but due to its complexity many questions remain unanswered about the effect of the individual phases on the magnetic performance at different temperatures. Here, we explore this mechanism effect for three different Sm(Co,Fe,Cu,Zr)$_z$ alloys by deploying high-resolution magnetic imaging via in-situ transmission electron microscopy and three-dimensional chemical analysis using atom probe tomography. We show that their microstructures differ in terms of SmCo$_5$ cell-wall and Z-phase size and density, as well as the Cu concentration in the cell walls, and demonstrate how these features influence the magnetic domain size and density and thus form different magnetic textures. Moreover, we illustrate that the dominant coercivity mechanism at room temperature is domain-wall pinning and show that magnets with a denser cell-wall network, a steeper Cu gradient across the cell-wall boundary, and thinner Z-phase platelets have a higher coercivity. We also show that the coercivity mechanism at high temperatures is domain-wall nucleation at the cell walls. Increasing the Cu concentration inside the cell walls decreases the transition temperature between pinning and nucleation, significantly decreasing the coercivity with increasing temperature. We therefore provide a detailed explanation of how the microstructure on the atomic to nanoscale directly affects the magnetic performance and provide detailed guidelines for an improved design of Sm(Co,Fe,Cu,Zr)$_z$ magnets.
