description: It has recently been shown that the dynamics of perturbed non-rotating black holes (BHs) admits an infinite number of symmetries that are generated by the flow of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. These symmetries lead to an infinite number of conserved quantities that can be obtained as integrals of differential polynomials in the potential appearing in the gauge-invariant master equations describing the BH perturbations, the KdV integrals. These conserved quantities are the same for all the possible potentials, which means that they are invariant under Darboux transformations, and they fully determine the BHs transmission amplitudes, or greybody factors, via a moment problem. In this paper we introduce a new semi-analytical method to obtain the greybody factors associated with BH scattering processes by solving the moment problem using only the KdV integrals. The method is based on the use of Padé approximants and we check it first by comparing with results from the case of a Pöschl-Teller potential, for which we have analytical expressions for the greybody factors. Then, we apply it to the case of a Schwarzschild BH and compare with results from computations based on the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation. It turns out that the new method provides accurate results for the BH greybody factors for all frequencies. The method is also computationally very efficient.

description: Coherent engineering of landscape potential in crystalline materials is a rapidly evolving research field. Ultrafast optical pulses can manipulate low-frequency shear phonons in van der Waals layered materials through the dynamical dressing of electronic structure and photoexcited carrier density. In this work, we provide a diagrammatic formalism for nonlinear Raman force and implement it to shear phonon dynamics in bilayer graphene. We predict a controllable splitting of double degenerate shear phonon modes due to light-induced phonon mixing and renormalization according to a coherent nonlinear Raman force mechanism. Intriguingly, we obtain a light-induced shear phonon softening that facilitates structural instability at a critical field amplitude for which the shear phonon frequency vanishes. The phonon splitting and instability strongly depend on the laser intensity, frequency, chemical potential, and temperature of photoexcited electrons. This study motivates future experimental investigation of the optical fine-tuning and regulation of shear phonons and layer stacking order in layered van der Waals mater

description: In the context of wave propagation, caustics are usually defined as the envelope of a finite-extent wavefront; folds and cusps in a caustic result in enhanced wave amplitudes. Here, we tackle a related phenomenon, namely the existence of well-defined beams originating solely from the geometric properties of the corresponding dispersion relation. This directional emission, termed caustic beam, is enabled by a stationary group velocity direction, and has been observed first in the case of phonons. We propose an overview of this "focusing" effect in the context of spin waves excited in soft, thin ferromagnetic films. Based on an analytical dispersion relation, we provide tools for a systematic survey of caustic spin wave beams. Our theoretical approach is validated by time-resolved microscopy experiments using the magneto-optical Kerr effect. Then, we identify two cases of particular interest both from fundamental and applicative perspectives. Indeed, both of them enable broadband excitations (in terms of wave vectors) to result in narrowband beams of low divergence.

description: The light echo systems of historical supernovae in the Milky Way and local group galaxies provide an unprecedented opportunity to reveal the effects of asymmetry on observables, particularly optical spectra. Scattering dust at different locations on the light echo ellipsoid witnesses the supernova from different perspectives and the light consequently scattered towards Earth preserves the shape of line profile variations introduced by asymmetries in the supernova photosphere. However, the interpretation of supernova light echo spectra to date has not involved a detailed consideration of the effects of outburst duration and geometrical scattering modifications due to finite scattering dust filament dimension, inclination, and image point-spread function and spectrograph slit width. In this paper, we explore the implications of these factors and present a framework for future resolved supernova light echo spectra interpretation, and test it against Cas A and SN 1987A light echo spectra. We conclude that the full modeling of the dimensions and orientation of the scattering dust using the observed light echoes at two or more epochs is critical for the correct interpretation of light echo spectra. Indeed, without doing so one might falsely conclude that differences exist when none are actually present.

description: Excerpts from the report: The general outlook is for some improvement in the agricultural situation in 1939. Present conditions suggest that increasing business activity and rising consumer incomes will create a somewhat more favorable domestic market for farm products in the coming year. It is expected that this will more than offset the less favorable foreign prospects. The general level of wholesale commodity prices in the United States is expected to average somewhat higher in 1939 than in 1938. Some increase in prices of farm products as a whole is likely, with the crops in somewhat better price position than livestock products. Farm wages probably will average a little lower in 1939, and the same trend is probable in other important production cost items, including farm machinery and fertilizer.

description: Inertial effects affecting both the translational and rotational dynamics are inherent to a broad range of active systems at the macroscopic scale. Thus, there is a pivotal need for proper models in the framework of active matter to correctly reproduce experimental results, hopefully achieving theoretical insights. For this purpose, we propose an inertial version of the active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP) model accounting for particle mass (translational inertia) as well as its moment of inertia (rotational inertia) and derive the full expression for its steady-state properties. The inertial AOUP dynamics introduced in this paper is designed to capture the basic features of the well-established inertial active Brownian particle (ABP) model, i.e., the persistence time of the active motion and the long-time diffusion coefficient. For a small or moderate rotational inertia, these two models predict similar dynamics at all timescales and, in general, our inertial AOUP model consistently yields the same trend upon changing the moment of inertia for various dynamical correlation functions.

description: We present proper motion measurements of oxygen-rich ejecta of the LMC supernova remnant N132D using two epochs of Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys data spanning 16 years. The proper motions of 120 individual knots of oxygen-rich gas were measured and used to calculate a center of expansion (CoE) of $α$=05:25:01.71 and $δ$=-69:38:41.64 (J2000) with a 1-$σ$ uncertainty of 2.90 arcseconds. This new CoE measurement is 9.2 and 10.8 arcseconds from two previous CoE estimates based on the geometry of the optically emitting ejecta. We also derive an explosion age of 2770 $\pm$ 500 yr, which is consistent with recent age estimates of $\approx 2500$ yr made from 3D ejecta reconstructions. We verify our estimates of the CoE and age using a new automated procedure that detected and tracked the proper motions of 137 knots, with 73 knots that overlap with the visually identified knots. We find the proper motions of ejecta are still ballistic, despite the remnant's age, and are consistent with the notion that the ejecta are expanding into an ISM cavity. Evidence for explosion asymmetry from the parent supernova is also observed. Using the visually measured proper motion measurements and corresponding center of expansion and age, we compare N132D to other supernova remnants with proper motion ejecta studies.

description: The dynamics of the gauge sector of QCD give rise to nonperturbative phenomena that are crucial for the internal consistency of the theory; most notably, they account for the generation of a gluon mass through the action of the Schwinger mechanism, the taming of the Landau pole and the ensuing stabilization of the gauge coupling, and the infrared suppression of the three-gluon vertex. In the present work, we review some key advances in the ongoing investigation of this sector within the framework of the continuum Schwinger function methods, supplemented by results obtained from lattice simulations.

Real-world characterization of ibrutinib therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma in British Columbia
Creators: name: Khelifi, Rania Sabrine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Background: Ibrutinib therapy has quickly become standard of care in Canada for CLL/SLL patients, due to its proven survival benefits. Real-world studies, however, have unveiled that ibrutinib therapy is also associated with higher rates of discontinuations and toxicities in patients. It is predicted that patients on ibrutinib therapy incur high costs to the healthcare system due to these toxicities. One potential solution includes testing for immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV) mutations. IGHV has the potential to inform treatment-decisions, allowing for the appropriate administration of ibrutinib and improved outcomes in patients. Objectives: The global objective was to complete a comprehensive real-world population-level observational study to characterize ibrutinib treatment in CLL/SLL patients in BC. The specific aims were as follows: i) to assess the rates of adverse events, discontinuations, dose modifications, and survival outcomes ii) to characterize the healthcare utilization and associated costs of ibrutinib therapy, and iii) to assess the impact of IGHV genomic testing, costs, resource use, and challenges of this testing and impact on survival. Methods: Provincial cancer and administrative databases were used to collate the data required. Each objective was addressed using three unique cohorts. Specific inclusion and exclusion criteria were set, and strict data cleaning procedures were followed. Results: Ibrutinib therapy led to good survival outcomes in the first-line and relapse/refractory settings; however, a high proportion of patients (35.1%) discontinued their ibrutinib treatment due to toxicities or disease progression. Survival outcomes were not maintained for patients who discontinued treatment regardless of reason. In the first 3 years of its use, ibrutinib cost a mean of $68,266.31 per patient per year. From time of diagnosis, patients with unmutated IGHV had worse overall survival (OS) compared to patients with mutated IGHV (P<0.001). However, when IGHV testing was used to inform treatment selection, there was no difference in survival, with 24-month OS 88.7% vs 91.3% for patients with unmutated and mutated IGHV status respectively, (P=0.785). Conclusions: Ibrutinib and IGHV testing have the potential to improve survival outcomes of CLL/SLL patients overall, however the drug cost of ibrutinib is a major burden to the healthcare system.
Generalized phonon-assisted Zener tunneling in indirect semiconductors with non-uniform electric fields : a rigorous approach

description: A general framework to calculate the Zener current in an indirect semiconductor with an externally applied potential is provided. Assuming a parabolic valence and conduction band dispersion, the semiconductor is in equilibrium in the presence of the external field as long as the electronphonon interaction is absent. The linear response to the electron-phonon interaction results in a non-equilibrium system. The Zener tunneling current is calculated from the number of electrons making the transition from valence to conduction band per unit time. A convenient expression based on the single particle spectral functions is provided, enabling the numerical calculation of the Zener current under any three-dimensional potential profile. For a one dimensional potential profile an analytical expression is obtained for the current in a bulk semiconductor, a semiconductor under uniform field and a semiconductor under a non-uniform field using the WKB (Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) approximation. The obtained results agree with the Kane result in the low field limit. A numerical example for abrupt p - n diodes with different doping concentrations is given, from which it can be seen that the uniform field model is a better approximation than the WKB model but a direct numerical treatment is required for low bias conditions.

description: Excerpts from the report: In contrast with 1938 when the farm family income felt the effects of the general decline in business activity, 1939 gives promise of being a better year. Business and industrial pick-up, more men and women at work, and more money in circulation all indicate a larger consumption of the products of the farm with more money coming the farmer's way. Income both from the farm and from sources other than the farm, for families that have such income, should be somewhat higher in 1939 than the year before. Government payments in 1939, including price-adjustment payments to those who cooperate in the 1939 program, are expected to exceed those of 1938. Receipts from farm marketings are expected to increase while production expenses are expected to remain at approximately 1938 levels. The farm dollar should purchase about as much as in 1938, and on the whole indications are that there will be more farm dollars to spend. The economies and careful planning forced upon the farm family during 1938, together with favorable garden crops, have tended toward increased conservation of home products so that there should be a good reserve of food on hand during the early months of 1939 in many farm homes.

description: In order to gain a better understanding of the Ising model in higher dimensions we have made a comparative study of how the boundary, open versus cyclic, of a d-dimensional simple lattice, for d=1,...,5, affects the behaviour of the specific heat C and its microcanonical relative, the entropy derivative -dS/dU. In dimensions 4 and 5 the boundary has a strong effect on the critical region of the model and for cyclic boundaries in dimension 5 we find that the model displays a quasi first order phase transition with a bimodal energy distribution. The latent heat decreases with increasing systems size but for all system sizes used in earlier papers the effect is clearly visible once a wide enough range of values for K is considered. Relations to recent rigorous results for high dimensional percolation and previous debates on simulation of Ising models and gauge fields are discussed.

description: Hospital noise has remained a low priority problem in India. An area of not less than 100 meters around a hospital is considered a silence zone, with guidelines restricting noise levels at 50dBA during daytime and 40dBA during the night. World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines also stipulate an average of 30dBA and a maximum of 40dbA. Annoyance is a known effect of noise exposure. However, very few studies have attempted to explore the hospital soundscape and the annoyance among staff related to it. Noise data was collected from 30 sites, using a Digital Integrating Sound Level Meter, LutronSL-4035SD (ISO-9001,CE,IEC1010) meeting IEC61672 standards. Stratified random sampling of staff was done on basis of noise exposure. A pre-designed, semi-structured questionnaire collected information on sociodemographic and work profile. Annoyance was defined as a stress reaction to environmental noise and was measured using standardized general purpose noise reaction questionnaire (ISO-TS/15666). Data was analyzed in SPSS. The mean LAeq 24 h across all the sites was 69.5dBA (SD ±5.8dBA) for the weekdays and 66.2dBA (SD ±4.6dBA) for the weekends. Noise levels were higher during the day than during the night, and higher during the weekdays as compared to the weekends. 332(73.8%) study participants were found to be annoyed due to hospital noise. Annoyance among study participants was significantly associated with LAeq 24 h > 80 dBA during the weekdays [aOR = 5.08 (1.17-22.06)] and LAeq 24 h of 65-80 dBA during the weekends [aOR = 2.71 (1.46-5.01)]. Noise levels in the hospital far exceeded WHO and Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) guidelines recommended for indoor hospital noise, as well as the national guidelines for sensitive zones. Almost three-fourth of the study participants were annoyed due to hospital noise. Significant association was found between annoyance among staff and higher noise levels of their workplace. Similar studies need to be conducted in hospitals across India to generate evidence on the current situtation and identify solutions.

description: We present 101 and 151 GHz ALMA continuum images for 85 fields selected from Herschel observations that have 500 micron flux densities >80 mJy and 250-500 micron colours consistent with z > 2, most of which are expected to be gravitationally lensed or hyperluminous infrared galaxies. Approximately half of the Herschel 500 micron sources were resolved into multiple ALMA sources, but 11 of the 15 brightest 500 micron Herschel sources correspond to individual ALMA sources. For the 37 fields containing either a single source with a spectroscopic redshift or two sources with the same spectroscopic redshift, we examined the colour temperatures and dust emissivity indices. The colour temperatures only vary weakly with redshift and are statistically consistent with no redshift-dependent temperature variations, which generally corresponds to results from other samples selected in far-infrared, submillimetre, or millimetre bands but not to results from samples selected in optical or near-infrared bands. The dust emissivity indices, with very few exceptions, are largely consistent with a value of 2. We also compared spectroscopic redshifts to photometric redshifts based on spectral energy distribution templates designed for infrared-bright high-redshift galaxies. While the templates systematically underestimate the redshifts by ~15%, the inclusion of ALMA data decreases the scatter in the predicted redshifts by a factor of ~2, illustrating the potential usefulness of these millimetre data for estimating photometric redshifts.

description: We present mid-infrared narrow-band images of the Orion BN/KL region, and N-band low-resolution spectra of IRc2 and the nearby radio source "I." The distributions of the silicate absorption strength and the color temperature have been revealed with a sub-arcsecond resolution. The detailed structure of the 7.8 micron/12.4 micron color temperature distribution was resolved in the vicinity of IRc2. A mid-infrared counterpart to source I has been detected as a large color temperature peak. The color temperature distribution shows an increasing gradient from IRc2 toward source I, and no dominant temperature peak is seen at IRc2. The spectral energy distribution of IRc2 could be fitted by a two-temperature component model, and the "warmer component" of the infrared emission from IRc2 could be reproduced by scattering of radiation from source I. IRc2 itself is not self-luminous, but is illuminated and heated by an embedded luminous young stellar object located at source I.

description: Excerpts from the report: Some improvement in demand for farm products, higher average prices, and larger farm cash income lighten the farm outlook for 1940 as compared with 1939. Practically all groups of farm commodities will share in the increase in income, but improvement may be more pronounced for meat animals, dairy products, poultry, eggs, and vegetables than for cotton and wheat. Some commodities may also benefit from increased foreign demand—particularly hog and dairy products. Prices received by farmers probably will be higher relative to prices paid than during the last 2 years. Farm wage rates and other production costs may average a little higher than in 1939, but receipts minus expenditures will be larger. Farm families probably will have higher net incomes—money and "in kind"—in 1940 than in 1939.

description: This paper deals with the problem of estimating the coupling constant $θ$ of a mixing quantum Markov chain. For a repeated measurement on the chain's output we show that the outcomes' time average has an asymptotically normal (Gaussian) distribution, and we give the explicit expressions of its mean and variance. In particular we obtain a simple estimator of $θ$ whose classical Fisher information can be optimized over different choices of measured observables. We then show that the quantum state of the output together with the system, is itself asymptotically Gaussian and compute its quantum Fisher information which sets an absolute bound to the estimation error. The classical and quantum Fisher informations are compared in a simple example. In the vicinity of $θ=0$ we find that the quantum Fisher information has a quadratic rather than linear scaling in output size, and asymptotically the Fisher information is localised in the system, while the output is independent of the parameter.

description: We present a new semi-classical theory for describing pairing in finite Fermi systems. It is based in taking the $\hbar \to 0$, i.e. Thomas-Fermi, limit of the gap equation written in the basis of the mean field (weak coupling). In addition to the position dependence of the Fermi momentum, the size dependence of the matrix elements of the pairing force is also taken into account in this theory. An example typical for the nuclear situation shows the improvement of this new approach over the standard Local Density Approximation. We also show that if in this approach some shell fluctuations are introduced in the level density, the arch structure displayed by the quantal gaps along isotopic chains is almost recovered. We also point out that in heavy drip line nuclei pairing is strongly reduced.

description: The new model of $n\bar{n}$ transitions in nuclei based on unitary $S$-matrix is considered. The $|in>$-state of nucleus is described by single-particle shell model. The dynamical process part is calculated by means of field-theoretical approach with finite time interval. The lower limit on the free-space $n\bar{n}$ oscillation time $τ_{\rm min}$ is in the range $10^{16}\; {\rm yr}>τ_{\rm min}>1.2\cdot 10^{9}\; {\rm s}$. \end{abstract}

Dark matter freeze-in via a light fermion mediator: forbidden decay and scattering

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The connection between a hidden nonthermal sector and a thermal plasma can be established by a light thermal fermion mediator. When the fermion mediator is much lighter than the hidden species, kinematically forbidden decay of the mediator can be opened at finite temperatures to produce the hidden species. Unlike bosons having quartic couplings, renormalizable forbidden fermion decay generically shares the same order of couplings with the scattering. We present a dedicated investigation into the freeze-in dark matter production via a thermal fermion mediator. We demonstrate that the plasma-induced decay rate differs from that calculated via the tree-level amplitude, but the former can be obtained from the latter via constant rescaling. Furthermore, we find that the relative effect of the forbidden decay and the scattering on the dark matter relic density can be simply estimated via the thermal coupling between the plasma and the mediator. Applying to different thermal interactions, we show that the forbidden decay contribution can reach the level of $4\%-45\%$ for a thermal coupling at $0.1-1$.

No like-sign tops at Tevatron: Constraints on extended models and implications for the t tbar asymmetry

description: We use a recent upper limit from CDF on like-sign top pair production to place constraints on general new vector bosons and scalars mediating u u -> t t. The possible vector bosons comprise neutral colour singlets or octets, and charge 4/3 colour triplets or sextets, whereas the new scalars can be neutral colour singlets or octets and charge 4/3 colour sextets. We also estimate the expected bounds from like-sign top pair production at LHC in the near future. Then, we address the implications of these limits for the forward-backward asymmetry in t tbar production measured at Tevatron. In particular, we find that models explaining the observed asymmetry by the exchange of a single t-channel heavy Z' boson are already excluded. On the other hand, light Z' bosons with a mass M_Z' ~ 150 GeV, which could also account for a recent CDF dijet excess in W+jet production, are barely allowed.

Study of the long-range transverse field Ising model with fermionic Gaussian states

description: We numerically study the one-dimensional long-range Transverse Field Ising Model (TFIM) in the antiferromagnetic (AFM) regime at zero temperature using Generalized Hartree-Fock (GHF) theory. The spin-spin interaction extends to all spins in the lattice and decays as $1/r^α$, where $r$ denotes the distance between two spins and $α$ is a tunable exponent. We map the spin operators to Majorana operators and approximate the ground state of the Hamiltonian with a Fermionic Gaussian State (FGS). Using this approximation, we calculate the ground state energy and the entanglement entropy which allows us to map the phase diagram for different values of $α$. In addition, we compute the scaling behavior of the entanglement entropy with the system size to determine the central charge at criticality for the case of $α>1$. For $α<1$ we find a logarithmic divergence of the entanglement entropy even far away from the critical point, a feature of systems with long-range interactions. We provide a detailed comparison of our results to outcomes of Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) and the Linked Cluster Expansion (LCE) methods. In particular, we find excellent agreement of GHF with DMRG and LCE in the weak long-range regime $α\geq 1$, and qualitative agreement with DMRG in the strong-long range regime $α\leq 1$. Our results highlight the power of the computationally efficient GHF method in simulating interacting quantum systems.

description: We provide a geometric explanation for the existence of magnification relations for the A, D, E family of caustic singularities, which were established in recent work. In particular, it was shown that for families of general mappings between planes exhibiting any of these caustic singularities, and for any non-caustic target point, the total signed magnification of the corresponding pre-images vanishes. As an application to gravitational lensing, it was also shown that, independent of the choice of a lens model, the total signed magnification vanishes for a light source anywhere in the four-image region close to elliptic and hyperbolic umbilic caustics. This is a more global and higher-order analog of the well-known fold and cusp magnification relations. We now extend each of these mappings to weighted projective space, which is a compact orbifold, and show that magnification relations translate into a statement about the behavior of these extended mappings at infinity. This generalizes multi-dimensional residue techniques developed in previous work, and introduces weighted projective space as a new tool in the theory of caustic singularities and gravitational lensing.

Bishops on the bench : why Constantine legislated Christian bishops into the role of judges
Creators: name: Bateman, C.G.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: This research is focused around a central question: why did Constantine make bishops judges and legislate them into this role with two pieces of legislation in 318 and 333? The short answer to this question is that he appears to have made this move based on his firsthand experience with the bishops sitting as judges in the Donatist hearings, wherein certain rigorist bishops had appealed their case to his court. He ultimately sat with a panel of other bishop judges in 316 and, as Emperor, decided the matter by making the same findings as the lower court of bishops he had initially sequestered for this task. The main reasons Constantine made the bishops judges can be summarized as follows: 1) Christian bishops were beholden to Constantine for saving their religion from persecuting emperors. After witnessing their ability to decide the Donatist legal proceedings at various levels of court and himself coming to the same decision, Constantine dovetailed their role as judges in the Christian community to one that would serve the state, and he reasonably expected them to cooperate. 2) The second reason is connected to the first, and concerns Constantine’s anger against the level of corruption in Roman courts, something he clearly legislated against in 331. As bishops were commissioned by their own religion to care for the poor, and because of the strict moral code of the bishops, it seems reasonable to suggest that Constantine hoped that bishops as judges might be part of the answer to making sure that the poor in society had access to justice in a court that was not corrupt. This may also have been an end-run on the rank-and-file judges in so far as the knowledge that litigants could simply request their case be transferred to a bishop’s court may have been intended to spur them to less corrupt practices more generally. The timing of his decision to make them judges is suggestive, if not conclusive: almost immediately following his experience in the Donatist appeal cases, Constantine made the bishops judges in the Roman legal system.
