description: My uncle David Andrew Hubbell was 17 when he signed up for the Royal Canadian Air Force. He wanted to be an aerial gunner and trained at night at a local high school auditorium in Toronto. However in early 1945 he was quietly taken aside by the C.O. at the training centre and told that it appeared that the war was winding down and the RCAF wouldn't be needing him anymore as a gunner. But, added the officer, with the ongoing war against Japan, the Army was short of manpower and was looking for volunteers. According to the official record, David wasn't terribly happy leaving the RCAF, but decided to join the Canadian Army and volunteered to take part in the planned1946 invasion of Japan as part of the Canadian contingent. He signed up and there are photos of him in training at Camp Ipperwash on the shores of Lake Huron (now a popular provincial park, although the former military camp is off limits in places as ordnance is still being cleared from there, at least as of 2020). The war in Europe ended and I believe he was transferred to Niagara for further training but when Japan surrendered later in the year he apparently went AWOL to celebrate. (Apparently this went unpunished, so I am guessing the whole camp probably emptied out). He was demobbed either late 1945 or early 1946 and returned to civvy street, where he had hoped to become -- like his father -- a real estate broker, although he initially took a job as a delivery boy for a local butcher. However, while on the job he complained of feeling weak and fatigued, and thought he was low on iron, and so started a diet of organ meat from the butcher's he was working at but it didn't help. Taken to a doctor he was diagnosed with leukaemia. The doctor told his parents that surgery could be done but it would only be a temporary fix (if it even worked) and he shortly would be in even worse condition than he presently was. I don't think David was told that, to spare him, for good or for bad. He took a sudden turn for the worse in early December and died of an internal haemorrhaghe shortly before Xmas, 1946. He was all of 20, only a few weeks away from turning 21. He is buried in Toronto's Mount Pleasant cemetery alongside his Mother and Father.

description: Weak shear maps of the outer regions of clusters have been successfully used to map the distribution of mass at large radii from the cluster center. The typical smoothing lengths employed thus far preclude the systematic study of the effects of galactic-scale substructure on the measured weak lensing signal. In this paper, we present two methods to infer the possible existence and extent of dark halos around bright cluster galaxies by quantifying the `local' weak lensing induced by them. The proposed methods are: direct radial averaging of the shear field in the vicinity of bright cluster members and a maximum-likelihood method to extract fiducial parameters characterizing galaxy halos. We demonstrate using simulations that these observed local weak-shear effects on galaxy scales within the cluster can be used to statistically constrain the mean mass-to-light ratio, and fiducial parameters like the halo size, velocity dispersion and hence mass of cluster galaxies. We compare the two methods and investigate their relative drawbacks and merits in the context of feasibility of application to HST cluster data, whereby we find that the prospects are promising for detection on stacking a minimum of 20 WFPC2 deep cluster fields.

Ameliorating the popular lepton mixings with A4 symmetry: A see-saw model for realistic neutrino masses and mixing

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A model for neutrino masses and mixing is devised appointing the see-saw mechanism. The proffered model is fabricated with a combination of Type -I and Type-II see-saw contributions of which the latter dominates. The scalars and the leptons in the model are assigned $A4$ charges conducive to obtain the mass matrices viable for the scheme. The Type -II see-saw mass matrix accommodates atmospheric mass splitting and maximal mixing in the atmospheric sector ($θ_{23}=π/4$). It is characterized by vanishing solar mass splitting and $θ_{13}$ whereas the third neutrino mixing angle is free to acquire any value of $θ_{12}^0$. Particular alternatives of $θ_{12}^0$ corresponding to the popular lepton mixings viz. $θ_{12}^0=35.3^\circ$ (tribimaximal), $45.0^\circ$ (bimaximal), $31.7^\circ$ (golden ratio) are accounted for. Another choice of $θ_{12}^0=0^\circ$ (no solar mixing) is reckoned. The subdominant Type-I see-saw constituent of the model propels all the neutrino oscillation parameters into the ranges allowed by the data which in its turn get interrelated owing to their common origin. This makes the model testable in the light of future experimental data. As an example, $θ_{23}$ emerges in the first (second) octant for normal (inverted) ordering. CP-violation is governed by phases present in the right-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrix, $M_{νR}$. Only normal ordering is allowed if these phases are absent. If $M_{νR}$ is complex the Dirac CP-violating phase $δ$, is capable of being large, i.e., $\sim \pm π/2$, and inverted ordering of neutrino masses is also permitted. T2K and NOVA preliminary data favouring normal ordering and $δ\sim -π/2$ predicts lightest neutrino mass to be 0.05 eV or more within the framework of this model.

description: We give an upper bound for the trace of a Hecke operator acting on the space of holomorphic cusp forms with respect to certain congruence subgroups. Such an estimate has applications to the analytic theory of elliptic curves over a finite field, going beyond the Riemann hypothesis over finite fields. As the main tool to prove our bound on traces of Hecke operators, we develop a Petersson formula for newforms for general nebentype characters.

description: The chiral vortical effect is a chiral anomaly induced transport phenomenon characterized by an axial current in a uniformly rotating chiral fluid. It is well-understood for Weyl fermions in high energy physics, but its realization in condensed matter band structures, including those of Weyl semimetals, has been controversial. In this work, we develop the Kubo response theory for electrons in a general band structure subject to space- and time-dependent rotation or vorticity relative to the background lattice. We recover the chiral vortical effect in the static limit; in the transport or uniform limit, we discover a new effect that we dub the gyrotropic vortical effect. The latter is governed by Berry curvature of the occupied bands while the former contains an additional contribution from the magnetic moment of electrons on the Fermi surface. The two vortical effects can be understood as analogs of the well-known chiral and gyrotropic magnetic effects in chiral band structures. We address recent controversies in the field and conclude by describing device geometries that exploit Ohmic or Seebeck transport to drive the vortical effects.

description: The techniques of cavity optomechanics have enabled significant achievements in precision sensing, including the detection of gravitational waves and the cooling of mechanical systems to their quantum ground state. Recently, the inherent non-linearity in the optomechanical interaction has been harnessed to explore synchronization effects, including the spontaneous locking of an oscillator to a reference injection signal delivered via the optical field. Here, we present the first demonstration of a radiation-pressure driven optomechanical system locking to an inertial drive, with actuation provided by an integrated electrical interface. We use the injection signal to suppress drift in the optomechanical oscillation frequency, strongly reducing phase noise by over 55 dBc/Hz at 2 Hz offset. We further employ the injection tone to tune the oscillation frequency by more than 2 million times its narrowed linewidth. In addition, we uncover previously unreported synchronization dynamics, enabled by the independence of the inertial drive from the optical drive field. Finally, we show that our approach may enable control of the optomechanical gain competition between different mechanical modes of a single resonator. The electrical interface allows enhanced scalability for future applications involving arrays of injection-locked precision sensors.

Post-main-sequence evolution of icy minor planets. III. water retention in dwarf planets and exo-moons and implications for white dwarf pollution

description: Studies suggest that the pollution of white dwarf (WD) atmospheres arises from the accretion of minor planets, but the exact properties of polluting material, and in particular the evidence for water in some cases are not yet understood. Previous works studied the water retention in minor planets around main-sequence and evolving host stars, in order to evaluate the possibility that water survives inside minor planets around WDs. However, all of these studies focused on small, comet-sized to moonlet-sized minor planets, when the inferred mass inside the convection zones of He-dominated WDs could actually also be compatible with much more massive minor planets. In this study we therefore explore for the first time, the water retention inside exo-planetary dwarf planets, or moderate-sized moons, with radii of the order of hundreds of kilometres. We now cover nearly the entire potential mass range of minor planets. The rest of the parameter space considered in this study is identical to that of our previous study, and also includes multiple WD progenitor star masses. We find that water retention in more massive minor planets is still affected by the mass of the WD progenitor, however not as much as when small minor planets were considered. We also find that water retention is now almost always greater than zero. On average, the detected water fraction in He-dominated WD atmospheres should be at least 5\%, irrespective of the assumed initial water composition, if it came from a single accretion event of an icy dwarf planet or moon. This finding also strengthens the possibility of WD habitability. To finalize our previous and current findings, we provide a code which may be freely used as a service to the community. The code calculates ice and water retention by interpolation, spanning the full mass range of both minor planets and their host stars.

description: A permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of a particle or system is a separation of charge along its angular-momentum axis and is a direct signal of T-violation and, assuming CPT symmetry, CP violation. For over sixty years EDMs have been studied, first as a signal of a parity-symmetry violation and then as a signal of CP violation that would clarify its role in nature and in theory. Contemporary motivations include the role that CP violation plays in explaining the cosmological matter-antimatter asymmetry and the search for new physics. Experiments on a variety of systems have become ever-more sensitive, but provide only upper limits on EDMs, and theory at several scales is crucial to interpret these limits. Nuclear theory provides connections from Standard-Model and Beyond-Standard-Model physics to the observable EDMs, and atomic and molecular theory reveal how CP-violation is manifest in these systems. EDM results in hadronic systems require that the Standard Model QCD parameter of $\barθ$ must be exceptionally small, which could be explained by the existence of axions - also a candidate dark-matter particle. Theoretical results on electroweak baryogenesis show that new physics is needed to explain the dominance of matter in the universe. Experimental and theoretical efforts continue to expand with new ideas and new questions, and this review provides a broad overview of theoretical motivations and interpretations as well as details about experimental techniques, experiments, and prospects. The intent is to provide specifics and context as this exciting field moves forward.

description: In a series of two preprints, Y.-P. Lee studied relations satisfied by all formal Gromov-Witten potentials, as defined by A. Givental. He called them "universal relations" and studied their connection with tautological relations in the cohomology ring of moduli spaces of stable curves. Building on Y.-P. Lee's work, we give a simple proof of the fact that every tautological relation gives rise to a universal relation (which was also proved by Y.-P. Lee modulo certain results announced by C. Teleman). In particular, this implies that in any semi-simple Gromov-Witten theory where arbitrary correlators can be expressed in genus 0 correlators using only tautological relations, the formal and the geometric Gromov-Witten potentials coincide. As the most important application, we show that our results suffice to deduce the statement of a 1991 Witten conjecture on r-spin structures from the results obtained by Givental for the corresponding formal Gromov-Witten potential. The conjecture in question states that certain intersection numbers on the moduli space of r-spin structures can be arranged into a power series that satisfies the r-KdV (or r-th higher Gelfand-Dikii) hierarchy of partial differential equations.

description: My Dad, as a member of the British Expeditionary Force, got to the front line by truck and then immediately began to be withdrawn through France to Dunkirk. He didn't do any fighting hand to hand but the convoy was bombed. He spent the night in the sea before being picked up by boat. He had been told that if he lost his rifle that he would be on a charge so he held it above his head so that it was still in working order in the morning he could not move his arms.

On return to England, he was taken with the rest of his Royal Signals platoon to Palestine as part of the 8th Army. The Germans cut the signal wires and he was told to repair it. He was shot at by a sniper whilst up a telegraph pole and his helmet was knocked off, having made the repair he was given a medal for volunteering. When the troops moved forward into Libya he was held in reserve until the War ended. He served from 1939 to 1946 I do not know why he was not demobbed earlier. Like a lot of his generation, he did not talk about it much.
Dual to the anomalous weak value effect of photon-polarisation separation
Creators: name: Quach, James Q.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: The quantum Cheshire cat (QCC) thought experiment proposes that a quantum object's property (\textit{e.g} polarisation, spin, etc.) can be separated from its physical body or \textit{disembodied}. This conclusion arose from an argument that interprets a zero weak value (WV) of polarisation as no polarisation. We show that this argument is incomplete in the sense that a zero WV reading could equally be interpreted as linear polarisation. Nevertheless, through a generalisation of the QCC, we complete their argument by excluding the possibility of linear polarisation as a consistent interpretation. We go further, and introduce the dual of the generalised QCC. The dual QCC exhibits an intriguing effect, where a horizontally-polarised interferometer with just one arm, can give rise to interference which is vertically-polarised. The interference appears to arise as the result of the phase difference between the physical arm and a \textit{phantom} arm. This peculiar effect arises from the interplay between the pre-selected and post-selected states, which characterises WVs. The QCC has not yet been unambiguously experimentally demonstrated. The QCC dual offers an alternative pathway to experimental realisation.

description: Due to the large kick velocities with which neutron stars are born in supernovae explosions, their spatial distribution is more extended than that of their progenitor stars. The large scale height of the neutron stars above the disk plane makes them potential candidates for microlensing of stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Adopting for the distribution of kicks the measured velocities of young pulsars, we obtain a microlensing optical depth of $τ\sim 2 N_{10} \times 10^{-8}$ (where $N_{10}$ is the total number of neutron stars born in the disk in units of $10^{10}$). The event duration distribution has the interesting property of being peaked at $T \sim 60$--80 d, but for the rates to be relevant for the present microlensing searches would require $N_{10} \gtap 1$, a value larger than the usually adopted ones ($N_{10} \sim 0.1$--0.2).

description: This paper proposes and investigates an optimal pair investment/pension policy for a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) pension scheme. The social planner can invest in a buffer fund in order to guarantee a minimal pension amount. The model aims at taking into account complex dynamic phenomena such as the demographic risk and its evolution over time, the time and age dependence of agents preferences, and financial risks. The preference criterion of the social planner is modeled by a consistent dynamic utility defined on a stochastic domain, which incorporates the heterogeneity of overlapping generations and its evolution over time. The preference criterion and the optimization problem also incorporate sustainability, adequacy and fairness constraints. The paper designs and solves the social planner's dynamic decision criterion, and computes the optimal investment/pension policy in a general framework. A detailed analysis for the case of dynamic power utilities is provided.

Measurement of the branching fraction and search for CP violation in $D^0\rightarrow K^0_S\,K^0_S\,π^+π^-$ decays at Belle
Creators: name: The Belle Collaboration

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We measure the branching fraction for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^0\rightarrow K^0_S\,K^0_S\,π^+π^-$ and search for $CP$ violation via a measurement of the $CP$ asymmetry $A_{\rm CP}$ as well as the $T$-odd triple-product asymmetry $a^T_{\rm CP}$. We use 922 fb$^{-1}$ of data recorded by the Belle experiment, which ran at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. The branching fraction is measured relative to the Cabibbo-favored normalization channel $D^0\rightarrow K^0_S\,π^+π^-$; the result is $\mathcal{B}(D^0\rightarrow K^0_S\,K^0_S\,π^+π^-) = [4.79 \pm 0.08\,({\rm stat}) \pm 0.10\,({\rm syst}) \pm 0.31\,({\rm norm})]\times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is from uncertainty in the normalization channel. We also measure $A_{\rm CP} = [-2.51\,\pm 1.44\,({\rm stat})\,^{+0.11}_{-0.10}\,({\rm syst})]\%$, and $a^T_{\rm CP} = [-1.95\,\pm 1.42\,({\rm stat})\,^{+0.14}_{-0.12}\,({\rm syst})]\%$. These results show no evidence of CP violation.

Extensive photometry of the intermediate polar V2069 Cyg (RX J2123.7+4217)
Creators: name: Kozhevnikov, V. P.

description: To obtain the spin period of the white dwarf in the intermediate polar V2069 Cyg with high precision, we fulfilled extensive photometry. Observations were performed within 32 nights, which have a total duration of 119 hours and cover 15 months. We found the spin period of the white dwarf, which is equal to 743.40650+/-0.00048 s. Using our precise spin period, we derived the oscillation ephemeris with a long validity of 36 years. This ephemeris and the precise spin period can be used for future investigations of spin period changes of the white dwarf in V2069 Cyg. In addition, for the first time we detected the sideband oscillation with a period of 764.5125+/-0.0049 s. The spin and sideband oscillations revealed unstable amplitudes both in a time-scale of days and in a time-scale of years. On average, the semi-amplitude of the spin oscillation varied from 17 mmag in 2014 to 25 mmag in 2015. The semi-amplitude of the sideband oscillation varied from 12 mmag in 2014 to an undetectable level of less than 7 mmag in 2015. In a time-scale of years, the optical spin pulse profile revealed essential changes from an asymmetric double-peaked shape in 2014 to a quasi-sinusoidal shape in 2015. Such drastic changes of the optical spin pulse profile seem untypical of most intermediate polars and, therefore, are of great interest. The pulse profile of the sideband oscillation was quasi-sinusoidal. Moreover, we note that V2069 Cyg possesses strong flickering with a peak-to-peak amplitude of 0.4-0.6 mag.

Neutron-skin thickness determines the surface tension of a compressible nuclear droplet

description: We systematically investigate the neutron-skin thickness of neutron-rich nuclei within a compressible droplet model, which includes several parameters characterizing the surface tension and the equation of state (EOS) of asymmetric nuclear matter as well as corrections due to the surface diffuseness. Such a systematic analysis helps towards constraining the EOS parameters of asymmetric nuclear matter and the poorly known density dependence of the surface tension; the latter is estimated with help of available experimental data for the neutron and proton density distributions and the nuclear masses. Validity of the present approach is confirmed by calculating realistic density distributions of Ca, Ni, Zr, Sn, Yb, and Pb isotopes within a microscopic Skyrme-Hartree-Fock+BCS method for various sets of the effective nuclear force. Our macroscopic model accompanied by the diffuseness corrections works well in the sense that it well reproduces the evolution of the microscopically deduced neutron-skin thickness with respect to the neutron number for selected sets of the effective nuclear force. We find that the surface tension of the compressible nuclear droplet is a key to bridging a gap between microscopic and macroscopic approaches.

Spontaneous CP violation in the left-right model and the kaon system

Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: A left-right model with spontaneous $CP$ breakdown, consistent with the particle physics phenomenology, is presented. Constraints on free parameters of the model: mass of the new right handed gauge boson $M_2$ and ratio $r$ of the two vacuum expectation values of the bidoublet, are found from the measurement of $ε$ in the kaon system. For most of the parameter space, $M_2$ is restricted to be below 10 TeV. Higher masses can be achieved only by fine tuning of Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements, quark masses, $r$ and the phase $α$ which is the unique source of $CP$-violation in the model. Large number of combinations of signs of quark masses, which are observables of the model, are found to be not allowed since they contradict with data. The range of $ε'/ε$ the model predicts is around $10^{-4}$ in magnitude.

description: Nuclear Astrophysics requires the knowledge of reaction rates over a wide range of nuclei and temperatures. In recent calculations the nuclear level density - as an important ingredient to the statistical model (Hauser-Feshbach) - has shown the highest uncertainties. In a back-shifted Fermi-gas formalism utilizing an energy-dependent level density parameter and employing microscopic corrections from a recent FRDM mass formula, we obtain a highly improved fit to experimental level densities. The resulting level density is used for determining criteria for the applicability of the statistical model on neutron-induced reactions.

Thermodynamic bound on heat to power conversion

description: In systems described by the scattering theory, there is an upper bound, lower than Carnot, on the efficiency of steady-state heat to work conversion at a given output power. We show that interacting systems can overcome such bound and saturate, in the thermodynamic limit, the much more favorable linear-response bound. This result is rooted in the possibility for interacting systems to achieve the Carnot efficiency at the thermodynamic limit without delta-energy filtering, so that large efficiencies can be obtained without greatly reducing power.

description: Our mother, Kathleen Broadbent, was in Denmark with a group from Holiday Fellowship when the war broke out. She received two communications - a letter from her mother, saying "nothing much as happened while you've been away" and a telegram from the government commanding"return at once, war imminent". The group packed in a hurry and left for home.Some souvenirs had been left with a friend of the guide for collection later in the holiday. My mother had left the knitted woollen gloves pictured in the attachment.She never expected to see them again, but after the war, a package arrived with a letter, which she had translated. The Danish family had kept the souvenirs from this group throughout the occupation of Denmark and gone to the trouble of returning them when they could. Mother never forgot this act of human kindness, saying she would not have blamed them for making use of the items in times of great deprivation and that they had helped restore her faith in humanity.

description: We show that, if the representation group $R$ of a slim dense near hexagon $S$ is non-abelian, then $R$ is of exponent 4 and $|R|=2^β$, $1+NPdim(S)\leq β\leq 1+dimV(S)$, where $NPdim(S)$ is the near polygon embedding dimension of $S$ and $dimV(S)$ is the dimension of the universal representation module $V(S)$ of $S$. Further, if $β=1+NPdim(S)$, then $R$ is an extraspecial 2-group (Theorem 1.6).
High-Redshift Superclustering of QSO Absorption Line Systems on 100 Mpc Scales

description: We have analyzed the clustering of C IV absorption line systems in an extensive new catalog of heavy element QSO absorbers. The catalog permits exploration of clustering over a large range in both scale (from about 1 to over 300 Mpc) and redshift (z from 1.2 to 4.5). We find significant evidence (5.0 sigma) that C IV absorbers are clustered on comoving scales of 100 Mpc and less --- similar to the size of voids and walls found in galaxy redshift surveys of the local universe --- with a mean correlation function $ξ= 0.42 \pm 0.10$ over these scales. We find, on these scales, that the mean correlation function at low (z=1.7), medium (z=2.4), and high redshift (z=3.0) is $ξ=0.40 \pm 0.17$, $0.32 \pm 0.14$, and $0.72 \pm 0.25$, respectively. Thus, the superclustering is present even at high redshift; furthermore, it does not appear that the superclustering scale, in comoving coordinates, has changed significantly since then. We find 7 QSOs with rich groups of absorbers (potential superclusters) that account for a significant portion of the clustering signal, with 2 at redshift $z\sim 2.8$. We find that the superclustering is just as evident if we take $q_0=0.1$ instead of 0.5; however, the inferred scale of clustering is then 240 Mpc , which is larger than the largest scales of clustering known at present. This discrepancy may be indicative of a larger value of $q_0$, and hence $Ω_0$. The evolution of the correlation function on 50 Mpc scales is consistent with that expected in cosmologies with density parameter ranging from $Ω_0 = $ 0.1 to 1. Finally, we find no evidence for clustering on scales greater than 100 Mpc ($q_0=0.5$) or 240 Mpc ($q_0=0.1$).
