description: Higher order topological insulators (HOTIs) are a new class of topological materials which host protected states at the corners or hinges of a crystal. HOTIs provide an intriguing alternative platform for helical and chiral edge states and Majorana modes, but there are very few known materials in this class. Recent studies have proposed Bi as a potential HOTI, however, its topological classification is not yet well accepted. In this work, we show that the (110) facets of Bi and BiSb alloys can be used to unequivocally establish the topology of these systems. Bi and Bi$_{0.92}$Sb$_{0.08}$ (110) films were grown on silicon substrates using molecular beam epitaxy and studied by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. The surfaces manifest rectangular islands which show localized hinge states on three out of the four edges, consistent with the theory for the HOTI phase. This establishes Bi and Bi$_{0.92}$Sb$_{0.08}$ as HOTIs, and raises questions about the topological classification of the full family of Bi$_{x}$Sb$_{1-x}$ alloys.

Rhizonemus Dejean, 1836b: 180, nomen nudum.
Anomalochilus Blanchard, 1850: 123, syn. nov. Type species: Anomalochilus singularis Blanchard, 1850 (designation: monotypy).
Demodema Blanchard, 1850: 121. Type species: Demodema fallax Blanchard, 1850 (designation: Lacordaire 1856: 258).
Demodema – Katovich 2008: 6 (synonymy).
Type species
Plectris tomentosa LePeletier de Saint-Fargeau & Audinet-Serville, 1828 (designation: monotypy).
Diagnosis
Labrum deeply emarginate; pronotal anterior and posterior margins not beaded; prosternum with an anterior longitudinal carina; elytral striae indistinct, elytral posterior and posterointernal margins not beaded; metatarsomere I as long as II–IV; metatarsomere VI longer than wide; metatarsomere V with internoproximal spine-like setae (Fig. 4 A).
Remarks
See Anomonyx (above). Plectris is the biggest and most problematic genus of Macrodactylini. The diagnosis provided by the present study or by Katovich (2008) do not include all species, and the review of Frey (1967) did not define the genus clearly. The species richness, taxonomic problems, and
the economic importance (e.g., Roberts 1968; Brill & Abney 2013) of Plectris show the urgency for systematic works on the genus.
The present study proposes the synonymy of Anomalochilus with Plectris, and two species previously placed in Anomalochilus are transferred to Plectris: P. pilosella (Blanchard, 1850) comb. nov. and P. singularis comb. nov.

description: Recently we proposed that K fields, that is, fields with a non-standard kinetic term, may provide a mechanism for the generation of thick branes, based on the following observations. Firstly, K field theories allow for soliton solutions with compact support, i.e., compactons. Compactons in 1+1 dimensions may give rise to topological defects of the domain wall type and with finite thickness in higher dimensions. Secondly, propagation of linear perturbations is confined inside the compacton domain wall. Further, these linear perturbations inside the topological defect are of the standard type, in spite of the non-standard kinetic term. Thirdly, when gravity is taken into account, location of gravity in the sense of Randall--Sundrum works for these compacton domain walls provided that the backreaction of gravity does not destabilize the compacton domain wall. It is the purpose of the present paper to investigate in detail the existence and stability of compacton domain walls in the full K field and gravity system, using both analytical and numerical methods. We find that the existence of the domain wall in the full system requires a correlation between the gravitational constant and the bulk cosmological constant, which is thoroughly analyzed.

description: We investigate the nature of the ground-state of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the $shuriken$ lattice by complementary state-of-the-art numerical techniques, such as variational Monte Carlo (VMC) with versatile Gutzwiller-projected Jastrow wave functions, unconstrained multi-variable variational Monte Carlo (mVMC), and pseudo-fermion/Majorana functional renormalization group (PF/PM-FRG) methods. We establish the presence of a quantum paramagnetic ground state and investigate its nature, by classifying symmetric and chiral quantum spin liquids, and inspecting their instabilities towards competing valence-bond-crystal (VBC) orders. Our VMC analysis reveals that a VBC with a pinwheel structure emerges as the lowest-energy variational ground state, and it is obtained as an instability of the U(1) Dirac spin liquid. Analogous conclusions are drawn from mVMC calculations employing accurate BCS pairing states supplemented by symmetry projectors, which confirm the presence of pinwheel VBC order by a thorough analysis of dimer-dimer correlation functions. Our work highlights the nontrivial role of quantum fluctuations via the Gutzwiller projector in resolving the subtle interplay between competing orders.

description: There are many unknowns in the formation of subdwarf B stars. Different formation channels are considered to be possible and to lead to a variety of helium-burning subdwarfs. All seismic models to date, however, assume that a subdwarf B star is a post-helium-flash-core surrounded by a thin inert layer of hydrogen. We examine an alternative formation channel, in which the subdwarf B star originates from a massive (>~2 Msun) red giant with a non-degenerate helium-core. Although these subdwarfs may evolve through the same region of the log g-Teff diagram as the canonical post-flash subdwarfs, their interior structure is rather different. We examine how this difference affects their pulsation modes and whether it can be observed. Using detailed stellar evolution calculations we construct subdwarf B models from both formation channels. The iron accumulation in the driving region due to diffusion, which causes the excitation of the modes, is approximated by a Gaussian function. The pulsation modes and frequencies are calculated with a non-adiabatic pulsation code. A detailed comparison of two subdwarf B models from different channels, but with the same log g and Teff, shows that their mode excitation is different. The excited frequencies are lower for the post-flash than for the post-non-degenerate subdwarf B star. This is mainly due to the differing chemical composition of the stellar envelope. A more general comparison between two grids of models shows that the excited frequencies of most post-non-degenerate subdwarfs cannot be well-matched with the frequencies of post-flash subdwarfs. In the rare event that an acceptable seismic match is found, additional information, such as mode identification and log g and Teff determinations, allows us to distinguish between the two formation channels.

Lighting of a monochromatic scatterer with virtual gain

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this work, we discuss the scattering features of a dipolar particle made of large refractive index material by employing the concept of virtual gain and virtual loss. The virtual gain and loss can be achieved in a lossless passive nanostructure by shaping the temporal waveform of incident signals in the complex frequency plane. We show that an appropriate tuning of excitation time of the impinging field allows to capture and release the electromagnetic energy on-demand for an arbitrary time scale in a lossless nanosphere. Thus, the nanosphere obliges to emit monochromatic magnetic light which can be tuned throughout the whole visible spectrum by varying the size of the nanosphere. This proposal may find fruitful applications in lab-on-a-chip technologies and the realization of monochromatic sectoral multipole light source with a large quality factor at nanoscale level.

description: Mars is the only terrestrial planet known to have Tro jan (co-orbiting) asteroids, with a confirmed population of at least 4 objects. The origin of these objects is not known; while several have orbits that are stable on solar-system timescales, work by Rivkin et al. (2003) showed they have compositions that suggest separate origins from one another. We have obtained infrared (0.8-2.5 micron) spectroscopy of the two largest L5 Mars Tro jans, and confirm and extend the results of Rivkin et al. (2003). We suggest that the differentiated angrite meteorites are good spectral analogs for 5261 Eureka, the largest Mars Trojan. Meteorite analogs for 101429 1998 VF31 are more varied and include primitive achondrites and mesosiderites.

Caveats for the use of Web of Science Core Collection in old literature retrieval and historical bibliometric analysis

description: By using publications from Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC), Fosso Wamba and his colleagues published an interesting and comprehensive paper in Technological Forecasting and Social Change to explore the structure and dynamics of artificial intelligence (AI) scholarship. Data demonstrated in Fosso Wamba's study implied that the year 1991 seemed to be a "watershed" of AI research. This research note tried to uncover the 1991 phenomenon from the perspective of database limitation by probing the limitations of search in abstract/author keywords/keywords plus fields of WoSCC empirically. The low availability rates of abstract/author keywords/keywords plus information in WoSCC found in this study can explain the "watershed" phenomenon of AI scholarship in 1991 to a large extent. Some other caveats for the use of WoSCC in old literature retrieval and historical bibliometric analysis were also mentioned in the discussion section. This research note complements Fosso Wamba and his colleagues' study and also helps avoid improper interpretation in the use of WoSCC in old literature retrieval and historical bibliometric analysis.

description: We study the interior of a recently constructed family of asymptotically flat, charged black holes that develop (charged) scalar hair as one increases their charge at fixed mass. Inside the horizon, these black holes resemble the interior of a holographic superconductor. There are analogs of the Josephson oscillations of the scalar field, and the final Kasner singularity depends very sensitively on the black hole parameters near the onset of the instability. In an Appendix, we give a general argument that Cauchy horizons cannot exist in a large class of stationary black holes with scalar hair.

description: Rescaled spike and slab models are a new Bayesian variable selection method for linear regression models. In high dimensional orthogonal settings such models have been shown to possess optimal model selection properties. We review background theory and discuss applications of rescaled spike and slab models to prediction problems involving orthogonal polynomials. We first consider global smoothing and discuss potential weaknesses. Some of these deficiencies are remedied by using local regression. The local regression approach relies on an intimate connection between local weighted regression and weighted generalized ridge regression. An important implication is that one can trace the effective degrees of freedom of a curve as a way to visualize and classify curvature. Several motivating examples are presented.

description: Cloth-changing person re-identification (re-ID) is a new rising research topic that aims at retrieving pedestrians whose clothes are changed. This task is quite challenging and has not been fully studied to date. Current works mainly focus on body shape or contour sketch, but they are not robust enough due to view and posture variations. The key to this task is to exploit cloth-irrelevant cues. This paper proposes a semantic-guided pixel sampling approach for the cloth-changing person re-ID task. We do not explicitly define which feature to extract but force the model to automatically learn cloth-irrelevant cues. Specifically, we first recognize the pedestrian's upper clothes and pants, then randomly change them by sampling pixels from other pedestrians. The changed samples retain the identity labels but exchange the pixels of clothes or pants among different pedestrians. Besides, we adopt a loss function to constrain the learned features to keep consistent before and after changes. In this way, the model is forced to learn cues that are irrelevant to upper clothes and pants. We conduct extensive experiments on the latest released PRCC dataset. Our method achieved 65.8% on Rank1 accuracy, which outperforms previous methods with a large margin. The code is available at https://github.com/shuxjweb/pixel_sampling.git.

Inhomogeneous asymmetric exclusion processes between two reservoirs : large deviations for the local empirical observables in the Mean-Field approximation

description: For a given inhomogeneous exclusion processes on $N$ sites between two reservoirs, the trajectories probabilities allow to identify the relevant local empirical observables and to obtain the corresponding rate function at Level 2.5. In order to close the hierarchy of the empirical dynamics that appear in the stationarity constraints, we consider the simplest approximation, namely the Mean-Field approximation for the empirical density of two consecutive sites, in direct correspondence with the previously studied Mean-Field approximation for the steady state. For a given inhomogeneous Totally Asymmetric model (TASEP), this Mean-Field approximation yields the large deviations for the joint distribution of the empirical density profile and of the empirical current around the mean-field steady state; the further explicit contraction over the current allows to obtain the large deviations of the empirical density profile alone. For a given inhomogeneous Asymmetric model (ASEP), the local empirical observables also involve the empirical activities of the links and of the reservoirs; the further explicit contraction over these activities yields the large deviations for the joint distribution of the empirical density profile and of the empirical current. The consequences for the large deviations properties of time-additive space-local observables are also discussed in both cases.

description: Quantitative understanding of CP violation is extremely important as naturalness reasoning strongly suggests that new physics should be accompanied by beyond the Standard Model CP-odd phases. In 2019 LHCb made the first $5 σ$ discovery of CP violation in the charm system, leading to the new world average $Δa_{CP}^{\mathrm{dir}} = -0.00161 \pm 0.00028$. While some calculations have found this observation as requiring new physics, we suggest that scalar resonances nearby to $m_{D^0}$, in particular, $f_0(1710)$ and/or $f_0(1790)$ cause enhancements for CP violation within the SM. Thereby, our calculations based on the Standard Model suggest compatibility with the LHCb observations for now. However, experimental information especially on $f_0(1790)$ is rather sparse limiting our accuracy and further data on these resonances is strongly advocated.

description: As in Gonzalez-Nuevo et al. 2017 and Bonavera et al. 2019, the high-z sub-millimetre galaxies can be used as background sample for gravitational lensing studies thanks to their magnification bias. In particular, as in Bonavera et al. 2020 the magnification bias can be exploited in order to constrain the free parameters of a Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) model and some of the main cosmological parameters. In this work the magnification bias has been evaluated as cosmological tool in a tomographic set up. The cross-correlation function (CCF) data have been used to jointly constrain the astrophysical parameters $M_{min}$, $M_{1}$ and $α$ in each one of the selected redshift bins and the $Ω_{M}$, $σ_{8}$, and $H_0$ cosmological ones ($Λ$CDM). Moreover, we explore the possible time evolution of the dark energy density introducing also the $ω_0, ω_a$ parameters in the joint analysis ($ω_0$CDM and $ω_0ω_a$CDM). The CCF has been measured between a foreground spectroscopic sample of GAMA galaxies that has been divided into four redshift bins (0.1-0.2, 0.2-0.3, 0.3-0.5 and 0.5-0.8) and a sample of H-ATLAS galaxies with photometric redshifts >1.2. The CCF is modelled using a description that depends on HOD and cosmological parameters that are estimated with MCMC in different cases. For the $Λ$CDM model, the analysis yields a maximum posterior value at 0.26 with $[0.17,0.41]$ 68\% C.I. for $Ω_M$ and at 0.87 with $[0.75,1]$ 68\% C.I. for $σ_8$. With our current results $H_0$ is not yet constrained. With the $ω_0$CDM model, the constraints on $Ω_M$ and $σ_8$ are similar, but we found a maximum posterior value for $ω_0$ at -1 with $[-1.56, -0.47]$ 68\% C.I. In the $ω_0ω_a$CDM model, the results are -1.09 with $[-1.72, -0.66]$ 68\% C.I. for $ω_0$ and -0.19 with $[-1.88, 1.48]$ 68\% C.I. for $ω_a$.

description: Spin kinetics in $n$-type InAs quantum wells under intense terahertz laser fields is investigated by developing fully microscopic kinetic spin Bloch equations via the Floquet-Markov theory and the nonequilibrium Green's function approach, with all the relevant scattering, such as the electron-impurity, electron-phonon, and electron-electron Coulomb scattering explicitly included. We find that a {\em finite} steady-state terahertz spin polarization induced by the terahertz laser field, first predicted by Cheng and Wu [Appl. Phys. Lett. {\bf 86}, 032107 (2005)] in the absence of dissipation, exists even in the presence of all the scattering. We further discuss the effects of the terahertz laser fields on the spin relaxation and the steady-state spin polarization. It is found that the terahertz laser fields can {\em strongly} affect the spin relaxation via hot-electron effect and the terahertz-field-induced effective magnetic field in the presence of spin-orbit coupling. The two effects compete with each other, giving rise to {\em non-monotonic} dependence of the spin relaxation time as well as the amplitude of the steady state spin polarization on the terahertz field strength and frequency. The terahertz field dependences of these quantities are investigated for various impurity densities, lattice temperatures, and strengths of the spin-orbit coupling. Finally, the importance of the electron-electron Coulomb scattering on spin kinetics is also addressed.

description: Inelastic neutron scattering experiments were performed for the spin-trimer compounds Ca3Cu3-xNix(PO4)4 (x=0,1,2) in order to study the dynamic magnetic properties. The observed excitations can be associated with transitions between the low-lying electronic states of linear Cu-Cu-Cu, Cu-Cu-Ni, and Ni-Cu-Ni trimers which are the basic constituents of the title compounds. The exchange interactions within the trimers are well described by the Heisenberg model with dominant antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor interactions J. For x=0 we find JCu-Cu=-4.74(2) meV which is enhanced for x=1 to JCu-Cu=-4.92(6) meV. For x=1 and x=2 we find JCu-Ni=-0.85(10) meV and an axial single-ion anisotropy parameter DNi=-0.7(1) meV. While the x=0 and x=1 compounds do not exhibit long-range magnetic ordering down to 1 K, the x=2 compound shows antiferromagnetic ordering below TN=20 K, which is compatible with the molecular-field parameter 0.63(12) meV derived by neutron spectroscopy.

description: This volume covers Leg 42A of the cruises of the Drilling Vessel Glomar Challenger. Leg 42A of the Deep Sea Drilling Project was scheduled to continue the geological exploration of the Mediterranean. The main scientific objectives of the cruise were twofold: first, we intended to obtain information which would allow reconstruction of the tectonic evolution of the Mediterranean. This study should provide us with a key to an understanding of the birth and demise (through orogeny) of small ocean basins, which have been referred to as geosynclines in classical geological literature. Our second main objective was to obtain information necessary for a definitive interpretation of the history of the Messinian Salinity Crisis. An additional scientific objective of our cruise was to conduct geothermal studies. The heat-flow measurements during several previous DSDP legs had not been particularly successful. The Mediterranean DSDP holes should be more suitable than open ocean holes for such studies. Another advantage of drilling in the Mediterranean is that the usefulness of the deep-sea data could be maximized through a comparison of the deep-sea record with the record on land, where the geology has been thoroughly investigated. Glomar Challenger left Malaga, Spain in the early morning hours of 4 April 1975 and arrived at Istanbul, Turkey at about noon, 21 May. During the 5 weeks at sea, 11 holes were drilled at 8 sites.

Type species
Serica marmorea Guérin-Méneville, 1831 (designation: monotypy).
Diagnosis
Clypeal posterior angle partially covering the canthus (Fig. 13 A); pronotal anterior margin beaded, posterior margin not beaded and with two acute projections over the anterior elytron–scutellum contact, posterior angle acute (Fig. 13 A); prosternum anteriorly concave (similar to Fig. 12 K) or an anterior longitudinal carina; protibia with 1–3 external teeth and with or without spur; elytron with posterior margin not beaded; male mesotarsomere I with an internal hook-like spine (Fig. 13 B); abdomen with intersegmental membrane VII–VIII concealed.
Remarks
The genus is recognized by having the posterior pronotal margin with two lateromedial teeth which project over the anterior elytron–scutellum contact. In addition, the male mesotarsomere I has a hooklike spine (Fig. 13 B), that also occurs in Mallotarsus (Fig. 13 C) and part of Dicrania (e.g., D. ebenina).
The present study revalidates Pseudoserica, formerly a synonym of Plectris, based on the following characters (opposition to Plectris): posterior pronotal margin with two lateromedial teeth over the anterior elytron–scutellum contact (margin straight); male mesotarsomere I with a hook-like spine (without spines); internal area of metatarsomere V without spine-like setae (with spine-like setae).

description: The high- and intermediate-velocity interstellar clouds (HVCs/IVCs) are tracers of energetic processes in and around the Milky Way. Clouds with near-solar metallicity about one kpc above the disk trace the circulation of material between disk and halo (the Galactic Fountain). The Magellanic Stream consists of gas tidally extracted from the SMC, tracing the dark matter potential of the Milky Way. Several other HVCs have low-metallicity and appear to trace the continuing accretion of infalling intergalactic gas. These assertions are supported by the metallicities (0.1 to 1 solar) measured for about ten clouds in the past decade. Direct measurements of distances to HVCs have remained elusive, however. In this paper we present four new distance brackets, using VLT observations of interstellar \CaII H and K absorption toward distant Galactic halo stars. We derive distance brackets of 5.0 to 11.7 kpc for the Cohen Stream (likely to be an infalling low-metallicity cloud), 9.8 to 15.1 kpc for complex GCP (also known as the Smith Cloud or HVC40-15+100 and with still unknown origin), 1.0 to 2.7 kpc for an IVC that appears associated with the return flow of the Fountain in the Perseus Arm, and 1.8 to 3.8 kpc for cloud g1, which appears to be in the outflow phase of the Fountain. Our measurements further demonstrate that the Milky Way is accreting substantial amounts of gaseous material, which influences the Galaxy's current and future dynamical and chemical evolution.

description: El uso del contexto espacial en la resolución de problemas se puede traducir en herramientas de gran utilidad. Todos los hechos suceden en un lugar y un instante determinado, y estos dos parámetros aportan gran información a cualquier evento. Los eclipses de sol han sido ampliamente utilizados por historiadores y arqueólogos como herramienta para la datación de hechos históricos. Su narración en historias o su representación en pinturas, han permitido correlacionar el contexto donde se producen, con un instante concreto. Sin embargo, no es fácil para un arqueólogo manejar efemérides astronómicas, y a menudo solo dispone de herramientas de visualización que no les permite llevar a cabo consultas complejas. Estas fuentes están además, fuera del ámbito habitual de trabajo de estos profesionales. El problema es por tanto, crear una herramienta que permita a los arqueólogos realizar búsquedas precisas, dentro de los entornos en los que están habituados a trabajar. En este trabajo se han utilizado los elementos Besselianos de los eclipses de sol publicados por el Jet Propulsion Laboratory, para generar las curvas de visibilidad de todos los eclipses de sol producidos desde el 2000 a.c. hasta el 3000 d.c. El algoritmo se ha implementado sobre un programa que permite el cálculo de las geometrías de la trayectoria de la sombra de la luna sobre la tierra, y cada una de ellas se ha almacenado en una base de datos PostGIS en proyección EPSG 4326. Esto permite ejecutar consultas espaciales de forma instantánea para conocer las circunstancias locales de todos los eclipses, para cualquier localización a lo largo de la historia, tanto totales como parciales. Como resultado se ha creado una base de datos espacial y un servicio fácil de incorporar a cualquier herramienta GIS utilizada habitualmente por los Arqueólogos. De esta manera se encapsula la complejidad de los cálculos astronómicos en estos servicios, ofreciendo un resultado que sirva como herramienta arqueométrica en la datación de hechos históricos.

description: We present FacialFilmroll, a solution for spatially and temporally consistent editing of faces in one or multiple shots. We build upon unwrap mosaic [Rav-Acha et al. 2008] by specializing it to faces. We leverage recent techniques to fit a 3D face model on monocular videos to (i) improve the quality of the mosaic for edition and (ii) permit the automatic transfer of edits from one shot to other shots of the same actor. We explain how FacialFilmroll is integrated in post-production facility. Finally, we present video editing results using FacialFilmroll on high resolution videos.

description: Fixing a gauge in the non-perturbative domain of Yang-Mills theory is a non-trivial problem due to the presence of Gribov copies. In particular, there are different gauges in the non-perturbative regime which all correspond to the same definition of a gauge in the perturbative domain. Gauge-dependent correlation functions may differ in these gauges. Two such gauges are the minimal and absolute Landau gauge, both corresponding to the perturbative Landau gauge. These, and their numerical implementation, are described and presented in detail. Other choices will also be discussed. This investigation is performed, using numerical lattice gauge theory calculations, by comparing the propagators of gluons and ghosts for the minimal Landau gauge and the absolute Landau gauge in SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. It is found that the propagators are different in the far infrared and even at energy scales of the order of half a GeV. In particular, also the finite-volume effects are modified. This is observed in two and three dimensions. Some remarks on the four-dimensional case are provided as well.
