Haploperla zwicki

description: Haploperla zwicki sp. n. (Figs. 18-21) Material examined. Holotype ♂ and paratype ♀ from Thailand, Doi Inthanon National Park, 2100 m, 6 April 1993, I. Sivec, B. Horvat (PMSL). Adult habitus. General color pale yellow in life with obscure brown pattern on head, pronotum (Fig. 18) and abdominal terga. Wings and legs pale. Male. Forewing length 5.5 mm. Abdominal tergum 9 produced over base of tergum 10. Epiproct a small, acute, triangular tab (Figs. 19-20). Aedeagus armed with a pair of slender rods, expanded apically and fused basally. Female. Forewing length 6.5 mm. Subgenital plate a small, broadly rounded to triangular, median projection on abdominal sternum 8 (Fig. 21). Larva. Unknown. Etymology. The patronym honors our friend and colleague, Professor Dr. Peter Zwick, in recognition of his important synonymy of Hastaperla with Haploperla (Zwick 1977). Diagnosis and Discussion. This species is generally similar to H. longicauda Zwick (1977), known from Bhutan, but the epiproct of that species is more rounded, the aedeagal sclerites are not expanded apically, and the female subgenital plate is broader. The aedeagal rods of this species appear to be fused basally which is a feature not reported in other chloroperlid groups (Surdick 1985; Zwick 1967).

description: The puzzle of recently observed insulating phase of graphene at filling factor $ν=0$ in high magnetic field quantum Hall (QH) experiments is investigated. We show that the magnetic field driven Peierls-type lattice distortion (due to the Landau level degeneracy) and random bond fluctuations compete with each other, resulting in a transition from a QH-metal state at relative low field to a QH-insulator state at high enough field at $ν=0$. The critical field that separates QH-metal from QH-insulator depends on the bond fluctuation. The picture explains well why the field required for observing the insulating phase is lower for a cleaner sample.

description: Isoperla peterzwicki sp. n. (Figs. 22 -28) Material examined. Holotype ♂ and paratype ♀ from Thailand, Doi Inthanon National Park, Bang Khun Klang, 1200 m, 26 January 1990, P. Chantaramongkol, H. Malicky (PMSL). Adult habitus. General color brown patterned with pale. Head with a dark brown transverse, arcuate band crossing posterior ocelli, and a wide longitudinal band extending from pale M-line through ocellar triangle (Fig. 22); an additional area of brown pigment extends forward of M-line to near anterior margin of head. Pronotum with mesal and lateral pale bands; disc pale brown with scattered islands of darker pigment. Palpi, antennae, distal part of femur and proximal part of tibiae dark brown. Male. Forewing length 12 mm. Abdominal terga unmodified; paraprocts weakly sclerotized, slightly curved inward and dorsad, and more or less triangular in outline (Fig. 23). Abdominal sternum 8 bears a wide, slightly projecting, hairy vesicle (Fig. 25). Aedeagal apex membranous, armed with a series of partially sclerotized irregular crenulations along dorsal margin (Fig. 24). Female. Forewing length 13 mm. Subgenital plate poorly developed; posterior margin of sternum 8 only slightly produced in middle third (Fig. 25). Egg. Oddly shaped with basic cylindrical form impressed by concave depressions on sides and ends giving a child’s toy drum appearance (Fig. 26). Anchor pancake-shaped (Fig. 27). Chorion impunctate but covered throughout with follicle cell impressions (Figs. 27-28). Micropyles minute (Fig. 28). Etymology. The patronym honors Professor Dr. Peter Zwick, in recognition of his recent work with Asian species of genus Isoperla (Zwick & Surenkhorloo 2005). Diagnosis and Discussion. Not much is known of previously described Isoperla from the Oriental region, but Wu (1938) includes illustrations for a few species in his monograph of Chinese stoneflies. Unfortunately, the types for all these species are apparently destroyed, but none of the Wu figures show the combination of subgenital plate shape and male vesicle shape of this species, and no Isoperla species from Asia with eggs of this type are presently known.

description: Double-diffusive convection, often referred to as semi-convection in astrophysics, occurs in thermally and compositionally stratified systems which are stable according to the Ledoux-criterion but unstable according to the Schwarzchild criterion. This process has been given relatively little attention so far, and its properties remain poorly constrained. In this paper, we present and analyze a set of three-dimensional simulations of this phenomenon in a Cartesian domain under the Boussinesq approximation. We find that in some cases the double-diffusive convection saturates into a state of homogeneous turbulence, but with turbulent fluxes several orders of magnitude smaller than those expected from direct overturning convection. In other cases the system rapidly and spontaneously develops closely-packed thermo-compositional layers, which later successively merge until a single layer is left. We compare the output of our simulations with an existing theory of layer formation in the oceanographic context, and find very good agreement between the model and our results. The thermal and compositional mixing rates increase significantly during layer formation, and increase even further with each merger. We find that the heat flux through the staircase is a simple function of the layer height. We conclude by proposing a new approach to studying transport by double-diffusive convection in astrophysics.

Table Detection for Visually Rich Document Images

description: Table Detection (TD) is a fundamental task to enable visually rich document understanding, which requires the model to extract information without information loss. However, popular Intersection over Union (IoU) based evaluation metrics and IoU-based loss functions for the detection models cannot directly represent the degree of information loss for the prediction results. Therefore, we propose to decouple IoU into a ground truth coverage term and a prediction coverage term, in which the former can be used to measure the information loss of the prediction results. Besides, considering the sparse distribution of tables in document images, we use SparseR-CNN as the base model and further improve the model by using Gaussian Noise Augmented Image Size region proposals and many-to-one label assignments. Results under comprehensive experiments show that the proposed method can consistently outperform state-of-the-art methods with different IoU-based metrics under various datasets and demonstrate that the proposed decoupled IoU loss can enable the model to alleviate information loss.

description: The mean field limit with time dependent weights for a 1D singular case, given by the attractive Coulomb interactions, is considered. This extends recent results [1,8] for the case of regular interactions. The approach taken here is based on transferring the kinetic target equation to a Burgers-type equation through the distribution function of the measures. The analysis leading to the stability estimates of the latter equation makes use of Kruzkov entropy type estimates adapted to deal with nonlocal source terms.

False-alarm probability in relation to over-sampled power spectra, with application to Super-Kamiokande solar neutrino data

description: The term "false-alarm probability" denotes the probability that at least one out of M independent power values in a prescribed search band of a power spectrum computed from a white-noise time series is expected to be as large as or larger than a given value. The usual formula is based on the assumption that powers are distributed exponentially, as one expects for power measurements of normally distributed random noise. However, in practice one typically examines peaks in an over-sampled power spectrum. It is therefore more appropriate to compare the strength of a particular peak with the distribution of peaks in over-sampled power spectra derived from normally distributed random noise. We show that this leads to a formula for the false-alarm probability that is more conservative than the familiar formula. We also show how to combine these results with a Bayesian method for estimating the probability of the null hypothesis (that there is no oscillation in the time series), and we discuss as an example the application of these procedures to Super-Kamiokande solar neutrino data.

description: In this paper, we investigate the topological Hubbard model - the spinful Haldane model with on-site interaction on honeycomb lattice with spin rotation symmetry by using slave-rotor approach and find that chiral spin liquid exists in such a correlated electron system of the intermediate coupling region. By considering the anyon nature of excitations, chiral spin liquid may be the ground state of the topological Hubbard model. The low energy physics is basically determined by its Chern-Simons gauge theory.

description: The properties of gas in the halos of galaxies constrain global models of the interstellar medium. Kinematical information is of particular interest since it is a clue to the origin of the gas. Until now mostly massive galaxies have been investigated for their halo properties. Here we report on deep HI and Hα observations of the edge-on dwarf galaxy UGC 1281 in order to determine the existence of extra-planar gas and the kinematics of this galaxy. This is the first time a dwarf galaxy is investigated for its gaseous halo characteristics. We have obtained Hα integral field spectroscopy using PPAK at Calar Alto and deep HI observations with the WSRT of this edge-on dwarf galaxy. These observations are compared to 3D models in order to determine the distribution of HI in the galaxy. We find that UGC 1281 has Hα emission up to 25"(655 pc) in projection above the plane and in general a low Hα flux. Compared to other dwarf galaxies UGC 1281 is a normal dwarf galaxy with a slowly rising rotation curve that flattens off at 60 km/s and a central depression in its HI distribution. Its HI extends 70" (1.8 kpc) in projection from the plane. This gas can be explained by either a warp partially in the line-of-sight warp or a purely edge-on warp with rotational velocities that decline with a vertical gradient of 10.6 \pm 3.7 km/s/kpc. The line-of-sight warp model is the preferred model as it is conceptually simpler. In either model the warp starts well within the optical radius.

User-centered design of identity and access management systems

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: IT security management (ITSM) technologies are important components of IT security in organizations. But there has been little research on how ITSM technologies should incorporate human and social issues into their design. Identity and Access Management (IAM) systems, as an important category of ITSM, share such a gap with other ITSM technologies. The overreaching goal of this research is to narrow the gap between IAM technologies and social context. In the first phase, we developed a set of usability guidelines, and heuristics for design and usability evaluation of ITSM tools. We gathered recommendations related to ITSM tools from the literature, and categorized them into a set of 19 high-level guidelines that can be used by ITSM tool designers. We then used a methodical approach to create seven heuristics for usability evaluation of ITSM tools and named them ITSM heuristics. With a between-subjects study, we compared the usage of the ITSM and Nielsen's heuristics for evaluation of a commercial IAM system. The results confirmed the effectiveness of ITSM heuristics, as participants who used the ITSM heuristics found more problems categorized as severe than those who used Nielsen's. In the second phase, we conducted a field-study of 19 security practitioners to understand how they do IAM and identify the challenges they face. We used a grounded theory approach to collect and analyze data and developed a model of IAM activities and challenges. Built on the model, we proposed a list of recommendations for improving technology or practice. In the third phase, we narrowed down our focus to a specific IAM related activity, access review. We expanded our understanding of access review by further analysis of the interviews, and by conducting a survey of 49 security practitioners. Then, we used a usability engineering process to design AuthzMap, a novel user-interface for reviewing access policies in organizations. We conducted a user study with 430 participants to compare the use of AuthzMap with two existing access review systems. The results show AuthzMap improved the efficiency in five of the seven tested tasks, and improved accuracy in one of them.

description: Based on measurements of angle resolved photoemission, we report that in the Pb/Ge(111)- \sqrt{3}x\sqrt{3} R30^\circ structure, in addition to three bands resembling Ge heavy hole (HH), light hole (LH), and split off (SO) bulk band edges, a fourth dispersive band resembling the non split off (NSO) band is found near the surface zone center. While three Ge bulk-like bands get distorted due to strong coupling between Pb and Ge, the NSO-like band gets weaker and disappears for larger thickness of Pb, which, when combined with ab initio calculations, indicates its localized nature within space charge layer. Our results are clearly important for designing electronics involved with metal-semiconductor contacts.

Protecting America: Order, Nation and Exception in Henry Carey's Social Science

Year: 2019
Subjects: Henry Charles Carey; Social Science; Protectionism; Nationalism; Exceptionalism; American Capitalism; American State

description: The essay offers a new understanding of Henry Charles Carey’s (1793–1879) social science. As one of the major intellectuals of the antebellum period that actively participated in the Republican Party, Carey’s works marked a reinterpretation of US nationalism in which the State became the guarantee of the exceptional American social order against social conflict and economic crisis following the capitalistic transition. Protectionism was conceived as a political measure to defend the harmony of the nation’s interests. His social science should be understood as an attempt to scientifically re-legitimize the order: as a social science of the American nation.

description: The essay examines the accounts of personal experiences of those Americans who came into contact with the Berbers along the North African coast in the decades after the proclamation of American independence. The national anxieties and personal reflections arising from the encounter by Americans with a religiously and culturally complex, distant society on the southern Mediterranean shore are explored. Most American captivity narratives reveal a complex relation to the construction of American identity, where the Orient becomes a zone of contact in which themes related to selfhood and nationhood are constantly negotiated and reconstructed.

description: FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ remains one of the most enigmatic systems of Fe-based superconductors. While much is known about the orthorhombic parent compound, FeSe, the tetragonal samples, FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ with x>0.17, remain relatively unexplored. Here, we provide an in-depth investigation of the electronic states of tetragonal FeSe$_{0.81}$S$_{0.19}$, using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/S) measurements, supported by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and theoretical modeling. We demonstrate that by analyzing modulations of the local density of states (LDOS) near and away from Fe vacancy defects separately, we can identify quasiparticle interference (QPI) signals originating from multiple regions of the Brillouin zone, including the bands at the M and A points. We also observe that QPI signals coexist with a much stronger LDOS modulation for states near the Fermi level whose period is independent of energy. Our measurements further reveal that this strong pattern appears in the STS measurements as short range stripe patterns that are locally two-fold symmetric. Since these stripe patterns coexist with four-fold symmetric QPI around Fe-vacancies, the origin of their local two-fold symmetry must be distinct from that of nematic states in orthorhombic samples. To further understand these stripe patterns, we explore several aspects related to them, such as the role of S and Fe vacancy defects, and whether they can be explained by QPI. We consider the possibility that the observed stripe patterns may represent incipient charge order correlations, similar to those observed in the cuprates.

description: The structural properties of graphs are usually characterized in terms of invariants, which are functions of graphs that do not depend on the labeling of the nodes. In this paper we study convex graph invariants, which are graph invariants that are convex functions of the adjacency matrix of a graph. Some examples include functions of a graph such as the maximum degree, the MAXCUT value (and its semidefinite relaxation), and spectral invariants such as the sum of the $k$ largest eigenvalues. Such functions can be used to construct convex sets that impose various structural constraints on graphs, and thus provide a unified framework for solving a number of interesting graph problems via convex optimization. We give a representation of all convex graph invariants in terms of certain elementary invariants, and describe methods to compute or approximate convex graph invariants tractably. We also compare convex and non-convex invariants, and discuss connections to robust optimization. Finally we use convex graph invariants to provide efficient convex programming solutions to graph problems such as the deconvolution of the composition of two graphs into the individual components, hypothesis testing between graph families, and the generation of graphs with certain desired structural properties.

Precise and accurate inferences on the stellar properties that are made possible by the seismic data allow very tight constraints to be placed on the exoplanetary systems. Here, we outline how to make an estimate of the detectability of solar-like oscillations in any given Kepler target, using rough estimates of the temperature and radius, and the Kepler apparent magnitude.

Evidence for the decays $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{(*)0}ϕ$ and updated measurements of the branching fractions of the $B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{(*)0}ϕ$ decays

description: Evidence for the decays $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}ϕ$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \bar{D}^{*0}ϕ$ is reported with a significance of 3.6$\,σ$ and 4.3$\,σ$, respectively. The analysis employs $pp$ collision data at centre-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}=7$, 8 and 13 TeV collected by the LHCb detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 $\rm{fb}^{-1}$. The branching fractions are measured to be $\mathcal{B}(B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}ϕ) = (7.7\pm2.1\pm0.7\pm0.7)\times10^{-7}$,$\mathcal{B}(B^{0} \rightarrow \bar{D}^{*0}ϕ)=(2.2\pm0.5\pm0.2\pm0.2)\times10^{-6}$. In these results, the first uncertainties are statistical, the second systematic, and the third is related to the branching fraction of the $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}K^{+}K^{-}$ decay, used for normalisation. By combining the branching fractions of the decays $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{(*)0}ϕ$ and $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{(*)0}ω$, the $ω$-$ϕ$ mixing angle $δ$ is constrained to be $\tan^2δ= (3.6\pm0.7\pm0.4)\times10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. An updated measurement of the branching fractions of the $B^{0}_{s} \rightarrow \bar{D}^{(*)0}ϕ$ decays, which can be used to determine the CKM angle $γ$, leads to $\mathcal{B}(B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}ϕ)=(2.30\pm0.10 \pm 0.11\pm0.20)\times10^{-5}$,$\mathcal{B}(B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{*0}ϕ) =(3.17\pm0.16 \pm 0.17 \pm 0.27)\times10^{-5}$.

description: Universal scaling laws govern the density of topological defects generated while crossing an equilibrium continuous phase transition. The Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM) predicts the dependence on the quench time for slow quenches. By contrast, for fast quenches, the defect density scales universally with the amplitude of the quench. We show that universal scaling laws apply to dynamic phase transitions driven by an oscillating external field. The difference in the energy response of the system to a periodic potential field leads to energy absorption, spontaneous breaking of symmetry, and its restoration. We verify the associated universal scaling laws, providing evidence that the critical behavior of non-equilibrium phase transitions can be described by time-average critical exponents combined with the KZM. Our results demonstrate that the universality of critical dynamics extends beyond equilibrium criticality, facilitating the understanding of complex non-equilibrium systems.

description: Two special dynamical transitions of universal character have been recently observed in macromolecules at $T_{D}\sim 180 - 220$ K and $T^{*}\sim 100$ K. Despite their relevance, a complete understanding of the nature of these transitions and their consequences for the bio-activity of the macromolecule is still lacking. Our results and analysis concerning the temperature dependence of structural, vibrational and thermodynamical properties of the orthorhombic polymorph of the amino acid L-cysteine (at a hydration level of 3.5%) indicated that the two referred temperatures define the triggering of very simple and specific events that govern all the biochemical interactions of the biomolecule: activation of rigid rotors ($TT_{D}$).

In memoriam : monuments, memorials, and the revolutionary dead in the work of Jean Genet
Creators: name: Reddon, Madeleine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: This thesis investigates the memorial and monumental aspects of Jean Genet’s final memoir, Un captif amoureux. My introduction discusses biographical reading as a predominant trend in the critical literature and argues that this way of reading Genet empties out the political force of a deeply committed literary text, severing Un captif from the historical genealogies that led to its production. In response to this history, my work addresses the text’s memorial and monumental character in order to argue, first, for the sincerity of Genet’s articulations of political affinity to the Palestinians and the Black Panthers and, secondly, to argue that mourning, and the memorial impulse, are coextensive, in this text, with the (retrospective and prospective) production of community. I suggest that Genet considers memorial art as a means of assembling this community, whose point of connection (mourning) enables the transcendence (without the negation) of what might be considered to be irreconcilable differences, specifically national, ethno-religious, social, sexual and racial categories of identity. Chapter one considers the figure of cemetery as a spatial metaphor for the memory work being undertaken by the memoir. I argue that Genet conceives the power of the text’s commemorative capacity to be in its creation of a flexible and indeterminate discursive space, a figurative territory, for the literally dispossessed (living and dead) to inhabit. For Genet, the limitations of this project circulate around the identity and disposition of the prospective reader who, despite sometimes being characterized as sympathetic, appears to inhabit the text’s discursive space as an outsider. Chapter two turns from the architectural towards the sculptural. Unlike the spatial metaphor of the cemetery, which suggests habitation, dwelling, and the confluence of perspectives, the recurring image of the pièta suggests the devotional and ceremonial qualities of the memoir as a commemorative object and the text’s uneasy position within, and relationship to, the broader history and economy of Western representation. Comparing Genet to the vandalizer of Michelangelo’s pièta Lászlo Toth, I argue that his “vandalism” of the pièta produces both a new image to be circulated but, in creating a new image, a new referent also emerges.

A Near-Infrared Spectroscopic Survey of Class I Protostars

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: We present the results of a near-IR spectroscopic survey of 110 Class I protostars observed from 0.80 microns to 2.43 microns at a spectroscopic resolution of R=1200. We find that Class I objects exhibit a wide range of lines and the continuum spectroscopic features. 85% of Class I protostars exhibit features indicative of mass accretion, and we found that the veiling excess, CO emission, and Br Gamma emission are closely related. We modeled the spectra to estimate the veiling excess (r_k) and extinction to each target. We also used near-IR colors and emission line ratios, when available, to also estimate extinction. In the course of this survey, we observed the spectra of 10 FU Orionis-like objects, including 2 new ones, as well as 3 Herbig Ae type stars among our Class I YSOs. We used photospheric absorption lines, when available, to estimate the spectral type of each target. Although most targets are late type stars, there are several A and F-type stars in our sample. Notably, we found no A or F class stars in the Taurus-Auriga or Perseus star forming regions. There are several cases where the observed CO and/or water absorption bands are deeper than expected from the photospheric spectral type. We find a correlation between the appearance of the reflection nebula, which traces the distribution of material on very large scales, and the near-IR spectrum, which probes smaller scales. The spectra of the components of spatially resolved protostellar binaries tend to be very similar. In particular both components tend to have similar veiling and H_2 emission, inconsistent with random selection from the sample as a whole. There is a strong correlation between [Fe II] and H_2 emission, supporting previous results showing that H_2 emission in the spectra of young stars is usually shock excited by stellar winds.

The Battle of Montreal: Neo-Conservative vs Regulatory Nationalism
Creators: name: Militello, Giovanni
Publisher: name: USAbroad – Journal of American History and Politics
Year: 2019
Subjects: Montreal Protocol; Reagan Administration; Regulatory Nationalism; Neo-conservative Nationalism; Environmental Legislation

description: The essay discusses the negotiations of the Montreal Protocol of 1987 by the Reagan administration, arguing that the protocol served as a tool to export and impose a level of environmental protection on the world that was already enforced in the US. The analysis of the domestic debates surrounding the treaty shows that the negotiations became a contest of strength between a dying “New-Dealist” regulatory nationalism and a thriving neo-conservative nationalism. The former won the battle in Montreal, but lost the war; the agreement represented its last flicker of life before the final rise of the latter.

description: Chain-mapping techniques combined with the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group are powerful tools for simulating the dynamics of open quantum systems interacting with structured bosonic environments. Most interestingly, they leave the degrees of freedom of the environment open to inspection. In this work, we fully exploit the access to environmental observables to illustrate how the evolution of the open quantum system can be related to the detailed evolution of the environment it interacts with. In particular, we give a precise description of the fundamental physics that enables the finite temperature chain-mapping formalism to express dynamical equilibrium states. Furthermore, we analyze a two-level system strongly interacting with a super-Ohmic environment, where we discover a change in the spin-boson ground state that can be traced to the formation of polaronic states.

description: The essay provides a broader understanding of American propaganda abroad during World War I and its aftermath by analyzing the role of the Committee on Public Information in revolutionary Russia through one of its directors, Arthur Bullard. While the main goal of the CPI was to keep Russia in the war, his view went beyond the conflict and looked at emphasizing the desire of friendly relations between the American and Russian peoples by appealing to the admiration that many Russians felt for the American lifestyle, in order to contain the spread of Bolshevism in Russian territories.

Escape Behavior of Quantum Two-Particle Systems with Coulomb Interactions
Creators: name: Taniguchi, Tooru

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: Quantum escapes of two particles with Coulomb interactions from a confined one-dimensional region to a semi-infinite lead are discussed by the probability of particles remaining in the confined region, i.e. the survival probability, in comparison with one or two free particles. For free-particle systems the survival probability decays asymptotically in power as a function of time. On the other hand, for two-particle systems with Coulomb interactions it shows an exponential decay in time. A difference of escape behaviors between Bosons and Fermions is considered as quantum effects of identical two particles such as the Pauli exclusion principle. The exponential decay in the survival probability of interacting two particles is also discussed in a viewpoint of quantum chaos based on a distribution of energy level spacings.

description: We examine possible ordered states of AA stacked bilayer graphene arising due to electron-electron coupling. We show that under certain assumptions the Hamiltonian of the system possesses an SU(4) symmetry. The multicomponent order parameter is described by a $4\times4$ matrix $\hat{Q}$, for which a mean-field self-consistency equation is derived. This equation allows Hermitian and non-Hermitian solutions. Hermitian solutions can be grouped into three topologically-distinct classes. First class corresponds to the charge density wave. Second class includes spin density wave, valley density wave, and spin-valley density wave. An ordered state in the third class is a combination of all the aforementioned density-wave types. For anti-Hermitian $\hat{Q}$ the ordered states are characterized by spontaneous inter-layer loop currents flowing in the bilayer. Depending on the topological class of the solution these currents can carry charge, spin, valley, and spin-valley quanta. We also discuss the special case when matrix $\hat{Q}$ is not Hermitian and not anti-Hermitian. Utility and weak points of the proposed SU(4)-based classification scheme of the ordered states are analyzed.

description: We report on the time variation of SiO maser emission from the symbiotic stellar system V407 Cyg after the classical nova outburst on 2010 March 10. Although both the SiO $J=1$--0 $v=1$ and 2 lines at 43.122 and 42.821 GHz were found previously in the envelope of a mira in the binary system, only weak emission of the $J=1$--0 $v=2$ line has continuously been detectable after the nova outburst. The line profile exhibited a dramatic change several weeks after the burst; the component on the higher-velocity side of the systemic velocity disappeared two weeks after the burst, and a new persistent component appeared on the lower-velocity side later. These observations indicate that the SiO emitting regions are wiped out in a time scale of two weeks by the nova shock, but a part of the masing region is quickly replenished by cool molecular gases expelled by the mira pulsation.
