description: In the presence of attraction, the jamming transition of packings of frictionless particles corresponds to the rigidity percolation. When the range of attraction is long, the distribution of the size of rigid clusters, $P(s)$, is continuous and shows a power-law decay. For systems with short-range attractions, however, $P(s)$ appears discontinuous. There is a power-law decay for small cluster sizes, followed by a low probability gap and a peak near the system size. We find that this appearing ``discontinuity'' does not mean that the transition is discontinuous. In fact, it signifies the coexistence of two distinct length scales, associated with the largest cluster and smaller ones, respectively. The comparison between the largest and second largest clusters indicates that their growth rates with system size are rather different. However, both cluster sizes tend to diverge in the large system size limit, suggesting that the jamming transition of systems with short-range attractions is still continuous. In the framework of the two-scale scenario, we also derive a generalized hyperscaling relation. With robust evidence, our work challenges the former single-scale view of the rigidity percolation.

description: We study the Josephson current, I_J, in a junction consisting of two s-wave superconductors that are separated by a ferromagnetic barrier possessing a magnetic and non-magnetic scattering potential, g and Z, respectively. We discuss the general dependence of I_J on g, Z, and the phase difference ϕbetween the two superconductors. Moreover, we compute the critical current, I_c for given g and Z, and show that it possesses two lines of non-analyticity in the (g, Z)-plane. We identify those regions in the (g, Z)-plane where the Josephson current changes sign with increasing temperature without a change in the relative phase between the two superconductors, i.e., without a transition between a 0 and πstate of the junction. Finally, we show that by changing the relative phase ϕ, it is possible to tune the junction through a first-order quantum phase transition in which the spin polarization of the two superconductors' combined ground state changes from < S_z > =0 to < S_z > =1/2.

description: Our impression about one person often updates after we see more aspects of him/her and this process keeps iterating given more meetings. We formulate such an intuition into the problem of person re-identification (re-ID), where the representation of a query (probe) image is iteratively updated with new information from the candidates in the gallery. Specifically, we propose a simple attentional aggregation formulation to instantiate this idea and showcase that such a pipeline achieves competitive performance on standard benchmarks including CUHK03, Market-1501 and DukeMTMC. Not only does such a simple method improve the performance of the baseline models, it also achieves comparable performance with latest advanced re-ranking methods. Another advantage of this proposal is its flexibility to incorporate different representations and similarity metrics. By utilizing stronger representations and metrics, we further demonstrate state-of-the-art person re-ID performance, which also validates the general applicability of the proposed method.

description: We present brief synopses of supersymmetric models where either the neutralino composition or its mass is adjusted so that thermal relic neutralinos from the Big Bang saturate the measured abundance of cold dark matter in the universe. We first review minimal supergravity (mSUGRA), and then examine its various one-parameter extensions where we relax the assumed universality of the soft supersymmetry breaking parameters. Our goal is to correlate relic-density-allowed parameter choices with expected phenomena in direct, indirect and collider dark matter search experiments. For every non-universal model, we first provide plots to facilitate the selection of ``dark-matter allowed'' parameter space points, and then present salient features of each model with respect to searches at Tevatron, LHC and ILC and also direct and indirect dark matter searches. We present benchmark scenarios that allow one to compare and contrast the non-universal models with one another and with the paradigm mSUGRA framework. We show that many implications about sparticle properties and collider signals drawn from the analysis of the relic density constraint within mSUGRA do not carry over to simple one-parameter extensions of the mSUGRA framework. We find that in many relic-density-consistent models, there is one (or more) detectable edge in the invariant mass distribution of same-flavour, opposite sign dileptons in SUSY cascade decay events at the LHC. Finally, we scan the parameter space of these various models, requiring consistency with the LEP2 constraint on the chargino mass, and with the observed relic density, and examine prospects for direct and indirect dark matter detection. We find that in a large number of cases the mechanism that causes the early universe neutralino annihilation rate to be large (so as to produce the measured relic density) also enhances the direct detection rate, and often also the rates for indirect detection of neutralino dark matter.

description: The field-cooled (FC) process on an Ising spin-glass model is investigated by a standard Monte Calro (MC) method on one hand, and the equilibrium magnetization of the same system is evaluated by the exchang MC method on the other hand. The two types of simulation reveal intriguing glassy (nonequilibrium) dynamic properties of the FC magnetization (FCM) of the system. Particularly, the FCM decrease is observed when the FC process is halted at a low temperater, although its value is smaller than the corresponding equilibrium value. We present a comprehensive interpretation of such peculiar phenomena based on the scenario for the FCM process recently propsed by Jönsson and one of us (HT).

In this work, the main objective is to study the modeling and attitude controller design for a small size helicopter. Based on a non-simplified helicopter model, a new robust attitude control law, which is combined with a nonlinear control method and a model-free method, is proposed in this paper. Both wind gust and ground effect phenomena conditions are involved in this experiment and the result on a real helicopter platform demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm and robustness of its resultant controller.

description: We present an end-to-end methodology to measure the effects of weak lensing on individual galaxy-galaxy systems exploiting their kinematic information. Using this methodology, we have measured a shear signal from the velocity fields of 18 weakly-lensed galaxies. We selected a sample of systems based only on the properties of the sources, requiring them to be bright (apparent $i$-band magnitude $ < 17.4$) and in the nearby Universe ($z < 0.15$). We have observed the velocity fields of the sources with WiFeS, an optical IFU on a 2.3m telescope, and fitted them using a simple circular motion model with an external shear. We have measured an average shear of $\langle γ\rangle = 0.020 \pm 0.008$ compared to a predicted $\langle γ_{pred} \rangle = 0.005$ obtained using median stellar-to-halo relationships from the literature. While still a statistical approach, our results suggest that this new weak lensing methodology can overcome some of the limitations of traditional stacking-based techniques. We describe in detail all the steps of the methodology and make publicly available all the velocity maps for the weakly-lensed sources used in this study.

description: One-dimensional tellurides Ta4SiTe4 and Nb4SiTe4 were found to show high thermoelectric performance below room temperature. This study reported the synthesis and thermoelectric properties of whisker crystals of Ta4SiTe4-Nb4SiTe4 solid solutions and Mo- or Ti-doped (Ta0.5Nb0.5)4SiTe4. Thermoelectric power of the solid solutions systematically increased with increasing Ta content, while their electrical resistivity was unexpectedly small. Mo- and Ti-doped (Ta0.5Nb0.5)4SiTe4 showed n- and p-type thermoelectric properties with large power factors exceeding 40 microW cm-1 K-2, respectively. The fact that not only Ta4SiTe4 and Nb4SiTe4 but also their solid solutions showed high performance indicated that this system is a promising candidate for thermoelectric applications at low temperatures.

description: The glass-forming ability is an important material property for manufacturing glasses and understanding the long-standing glass transition problem. Because of the nonequilibrium nature, it is difficult to develop the theory for it. Here we report that the glass-forming ability of binary mixtures of soft particles is related to the equilibrium melting temperatures. Due to the distinction in particle size or stiffness, the two components in a mixture effectively feel different melting temperatures, leading to a melting temperature gap. By varying the particle size, stiffness, and composition over a wide range of pressures, we establish a comprehensive picture for the glass-forming ability, based on our finding of the direct link between the glass-forming ability and the melting temperature gap. Our study reveals and explains the pressure and interaction dependence of the glass-forming ability of model glass-formers, and suggests strategies to optimize the glass-forming ability via the manipulation of particle interactions.

description: The effect of annealing under a magnetic field on the microstructure and properties of YNixMn1-xO3 (x=0.33 and 0.5) films has been investigated. It is found that the ferromagnetic transition temperature is significantly enhanced after post annealing in the presence of an 8 T magnetic field. Characterization study shows that the microstructure is affected, obtaining larger grains of uniform size when films are annealed under a magnetic field. The improvement in the ordering temperature of all films is interpreted in terms of the grain growth caused by the magnetic-field driving force for boundary motion where the exchange coupling is high.

description: Modeling Internet growth is important both for understanding the current network and to predict and improve its future. To date, Internet models have typically attempted to explain a subset of the following characteristics: network structure, traffic flow, geography, and economy. In this paper we present a discrete, agent-based model, that integrates all of them. We show that the model generates networks with topologies, dynamics, and (more speculatively) spatial distributions that are similar to the Internet.

description: In the 2001-2002 running period of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), transversely polarized protons were accelerated to 100 GeV for the first time, with collisions at sqrt{s} = 200 GeV. We present results from this run for single transverse spin asymmetries for inclusive production of neutral pions, photons and neutrons of the energy region 20 - 100 GeV for forward and backward production for angles between 0.3 mrad and 2.2 mrad with respect to the polarized proton direction. An asymmetry of A_N = (-0.090 +- 0.006 +- 0.009) x (1.0^{+0.47}_{-0.24}) was observed for forward neutron production, where the errors are statistical and systematic, and the scale error is from the beam polarization uncertainty. The forward photon and pi^0, and backward neutron, photon, and pi^0 asymmetries were consistent with zero. The large neutron asymmetry indicates a strong interference between a spin-flip amplitude, such as one pion exchange which dominates lower energy neutron production, and remaining spin non-flip amplitudes such as Reggeon exchange.

An alternative method to study star cluster disruption
Creators: name: Gieles, Mark
name: Bastian, Nate
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Many embedded star clusters do not evolve into long-lived bound clusters. The most popular explanation for this "infant mortality" of young clusters is the expulsion of natal gas by stellar winds and supernovae, which leaves up to 90% of them unbound. A cluster disruption model has recently been proposed in which this mass- independent disruption of clusters proceeds for another Gyr after gas expulsion. In this scenario, the survival chances of massive clusters are much smaller than in the traditional mass-dependent disruption models. The most common way to study cluster disruption is to use the cluster age distribution, which, however, can be heavily affected by incompleteness. To avoid this, we introduce a new method, based on size-of-sample effects, namely the relation between the most massive cluster, M_max, and the age range sampled. Assuming that clusters are sampled from a power-law initial mass function, with index -2 and that the cluster formation rate is constant, M_max scales with the age range sampled, such that the slope in a log(M_max) vs. log(age) plot is equal to unity. This slope decreases if mass-independent disruption is included. For 90% mass-independent cluster disruption per age dex, the predicted slope is zero. For the solar neighbourhood, SMC, LMC, M33, and M83, based on ages and masses taken from the literature, we find slopes consistent with the expected size-of-sample correlations for the first 100 Myr, hence ruling out the 90% mass-independent cluster disruption scenario. For M51, however, the increase of log(M_max) with log(age) is slightly shallower and for the Antennae galaxies it is flat. This simple method shows that the formation and/or disruption of clusters in the Antennae must have been very different from that of the other galaxies studied here, so it should not be taken as a representative case.

Low thermal conductivity of the superfast rotator (499998) 2011 PT

description: Context: Asteroids with a diameter of up to a few dozen meters may spin very fast and complete an entire rotation within a few minutes. These small and fast-rotating bodies are thought to be monolithic objects because the gravitational force due to their small size is not strong enough to counteract the strong centripetal force caused by the fast rotation. Additionally, it is not clear whether the fast spin prevents dust and small particles (regolith) from being kept on their surface. Aims: We develop a model for constraining the thermal conductivity of the surface of the small, fast-rotating near-Earth asteroids. This model may suggest whether regolith is likely present on these objects. Methods: Our approach is based on the comparison of the measured Yarkovsky drift and a predicted value using a theoretical model that depends on the orbital, physical and thermal parameters of the object. The necessary parameters are either deduced from statistical distribution derived for near-Earth asteroids population or determined from observations with associated uncertainty. With this information, we performed Monte Carlo simulations and produced a probability density distribution for the thermal conductivity. Results: Applying our model to the superfast rotator asteroid (499998) 2011 PT, we find that the measured Yarkovsky drift can only be achieved when the thermal conductivity $K$ of the surface is low. The resulting probability density function for the conductivity is bimodal, with two most likely values being around 0.0001 and 0.005 W m$^{-1}$ K$^{-1}$. Based on this, we find that the probability that $K$ is lower than 0.1 W m$^{-1}$ K$^{-1}$ is at least 95\%. This low thermal conductivity might indicate that the surface of 2011 PT is covered with a thermal insulating layer, composed of a regolith-like material similar to lunar dust.

The process of lipid-lowering dietary change as experienced by hyperlipidemic adults
Creators: name: Potyok, Alysone Louise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Diet modification is the principal therapy endorsed for reducing elevated blood lipid levels; however, efforts promoting "compliance" are often unsuccessful. This study used a constructivist paradigm and grounded theory methodology to explore the process of lipid-lowering dietary change. Fourteen hyperlipidemic adults were recruited from a hospital-based outpatient lipid clinic program in Vancouver, British Columbia. All informants had high blood lipid levels, were free of signs of heart disease, and were in the action stage of dietary change (i.e., they were actively modifying one or more of their eating behaviours). The informants were interviewed at least twice to learn about their experiences with lipid-lowering dietary change and generate a theoretical framework of the change process. In depth face-to-face interviews and telephone interviews generated a rich qualitative data base on the process of dietary change as experienced by hyperlipidemic adults. Multiple stages of simultaneous data collection, analysis and interpretation produced a theoretical framework and conceptual model describing the process of dietary change. A conceptual model was developed to explain how the informants experienced the process of dietary change. Being motivated, finding personal meaning for change, making a personal commitment to change and various personal characteristics were important driving factors in terms of initiating and maintaining the change process. Making changes involved experimenting and making compromises in order to find a personally acceptable balance between enjoying life and making enough changes to achieve desirable outcomes. Cycles of slipping and getting back on track were also part of the process. Factors which helped or interfered with making changes and some corresponding coping strategies were also identified. The findings of this study showed that dietary change is not about adhering to the prescriptions of others, but about making one's own decisions about what is best for oneself. By considering the decision making role of individuals undergoing change, nutrition educators can help clients make reasoned decisions about health-related behaviours.

description: In the Eisert protocol for 2 X 2 quantum games [Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 3077], a number of authors have investigated the features arising from making the strategic space a two-parameter subset of single qubit unitary operators. We argue that the new Nash equilibria and the classical-quantum transitions that occur are simply an artifact of the particular strategy space chosen. By choosing a different, but equally plausible, two-parameter strategic space we show that different Nash equilibria with different classical-quantum transitions can arise. We generalize the two-parameter strategies and also consider these strategies in a multiplayer setting.

description: Nanostructured dielectric metasurfaces offer unprecedented opportunities to manipulate light by imprinting an arbitrary phase-gradient on an impinging wavefront. This has resulted in the realization of a range of flat analogs to classical optical components like lenses, waveplates and axicons. However, the change in linear and angular optical momentum associated with phase manipulation also results in previously unexploited forces acting on the metasurface itself. Here, we show that these optomechanical effects can be utilized to construct optical metavehicles - microscopic particles that can travel long distances under low-power plane-wave illumination while being steered through the polarization of the incident light. We demonstrate movement in complex patterns, self-correcting motion, and an application as transport vehicles for microscopic cargo, including unicellular organisms. The abundance of possible optical metasurfaces attests to the prospect of developing a wide variety of metavehicles with specialized functional behavior.

description: Although Sequence-to-Sequence (S2S) architectures have become state-of-the-art in speech synthesis, capable of generating outputs that approach the perceptual quality of natural samples, they are limited by a lack of flexibility when it comes to controlling the output. In this work we present a framework capable of controlling the prosodic output via a set of concise, interpretable, disentangled parameters. We apply this framework to the realization of emphatic lexical focus, proposing a variety of architectures designed to exploit different levels of supervision based on the availability of labeled resources. We evaluate these approaches via listening tests that demonstrate we are able to successfully realize controllable focus while maintaining the same, or higher, naturalness over an established baseline, and we explore how the different approaches compare when synthesizing in a target voice with or without labeled data.

description: We present recent observations of the X-ray pulsar SAX J1324-6200 obtained in December 2007 with the Swift satellite yielding a significant improvement in the source localization with respect to previous data and a new measurement of the spin period P=172.84s. A single object consistent in colors with a highly reddened early type star is visible in the X-ray error box. The period is significantly longer than that obtained in 1997, indicating that SAX J1324-6200 has been spinning down at an average rate of ~6x10^-9 s s^-1. We discuss the possible nature of the source showing that it most likely belongs to the class of low luminosity, persistent Be/neutron star binaries.

Creators: name: Aversa  ,  Luigi

Year: 2021

description: Il saggio mette in luce il rapporto fondamentale tra il filosofo Paul Ricœur e la teoria psicoanalitica, evidenziando come il dato esperienziale sia al centro della ‘psicologia del profondo’ così come della filosofia. L’hermeneia, intesa non solo come interpretazione linguistica ma nella sua funzione esplicativa, ‘svelando’ ri-vela, in un tempo lungo, l’esperienza, che oltre a essere vissuta viene anche raccontata. Questo tempo, il tempo del racconto, dove tutto merita di essere raccontato, è il luogo in cui l’esperienza psicoanalitica e quella filosofica di Paul Ricœur si incontrano.

description: A clear understanding of the nature of the pre-eruptive magnetic field configurations of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) is required for understanding and eventually predicting solar eruptions. Only two, but seemingly disparate, magnetic configurations are considered viable; namely, sheared magnetic arcades (SMA) and magnetic flux ropes (MFR). They can form via three physical mechanisms (flux emergence, flux cancellation, helicity condensation) . Whether the CME culprit is an SMA or an MFR, however, has been strongly debated for thirty years. We formed an International Space Science Institute (ISSI) team to address and resolve this issue and report the outcome here. We review the status of the field across modeling and observations, identify the open and closed issues, compile lists of SMA and MFR observables to be tested against observations and outline research activities to close the gaps in our current understanding. We propose that the combination of multi-viewpoint multi-thermal coronal observations and multi-height vector magnetic field measurements is the optimal approach for resolving the issue conclusively. We demonstrate the approach using MHD simulations and synthetic coronal images. Our key conclusion is that the differentiation of pre-eruptive configurations in terms of SMAs and MFRs seems artificial. Both observations and modeling can be made consistent if the pre-eruptive configuration exists in a hybrid state that is continuously evolving from an SMA to an MFR. Thus, the 'dominant' nature of a given configuration will largely depend on its evolutionary stage (SMA-like early-on, MFR-like near the eruption).

Recent Progress on Anomalous X-ray Pulsars

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: I review recent observational progress on Anomalous X-ray Pulsars, with an emphasis on timing, variability, and spectra. Highlighted results include the recent timing and flux stabilization of the notoriously unstable AXP 1E 1048.1-5937, the remarkable glitches seen in two AXPs, the newly recognized variety of AXP variability types, including outbursts, bursts, flares, and pulse profile changes, as well as recent discoveries regarding AXP spectra, including their surprising hard X-ray and far-infrared emission, as well as the pulsed radio emission seen in one source. Much has been learned about these enigmatic objects over the past few years, with the pace of discoveries remaining steady. However additional work on both observational and theoretical fronts is needed before we have a comprehensive understanding of AXPs and their place in the zoo of manifestations of young neutron stars.

description: We use a sample of 532 star-forming galaxies at redshifts $z\sim 1.4-2.6$ with deep rest-frame optical spectra from the MOSFIRE Deep Evolution Field (MOSDEF) survey to place the first constraints on the nebular attenuation curve at high redshift. Based on the first five low-order Balmer emission lines detected in the composite spectra of these galaxies (${\rm Hα}$ through ${\rm Hε}$), we derive a nebular attenuation curve that is similar in shape to that of the Galactic extinction curve, suggesting that the dust covering fraction and absorption/scattering properties along the lines-of-sight to massive stars at high redshift are similar to those of the average Milky Way sightline. The curve derived here implies nebular reddening values that are on average systematically larger than those derived for the stellar continuum. In the context of stellar population synthesis models that include the effects of stellar multiplicity, the difference in reddening of the nebular lines and stellar continuum may imply molecular cloud crossing timescales that are a factor of $\gtrsim 3\times$ longer than those inferred for local molecular clouds, star-formation rates that are constant or increasing with time such that newly-formed and dustier OB associations always dominate the ionizing flux, and/or that the dust responsible for reddening the nebular emission may be associated with non-molecular (i.e., ionized and neutral) phases of the ISM. Our analysis points to a variety of investigations of the nebular attenuation curve that will be enabled with the next generation of ground- and space-based facilities.

Simplicity and closure constraints in spin foam models of gravity

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We revise imposition of various constraints in spin foam models of 4-dimensional general relativity. We argue that the usual simplicity constraint must be supplemented by a constraint on holonomies and together they must be inserted explicitly into the discretized path integral. At the same time, the closure constraint must be relaxed so that the new constraint expresses covariance of intertwiners assigned to tetrahedra by spin foam quantization. As a result, the spin foam boundary states are shown to be realized in terms of projected spin networks of the covariant loop approach to quantum gravity.

description: Non-magnetic impurities can lift the accidental degeneracy of unconventional pairing states, such as the $(d + i g)$-wave state recently proposed for Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. This type of effect would lead to a superconducting double transition upon impurity doping. In a model calculation it is shown how this behavior depends on material parameters and how it could be detected.
