description: Atom interferometry is an exciting tool to probe fundamental physics. It is considered especially apt to test the universality of free fall by using two different sorts of atoms. The increasing sensitivity required for this kind of experiment sets severe requirements on its environments, instrument control, and systematic effects. This can partially be mitigated by going to space as was proposed, for example, in the Spacetime Explorer and Quantum Equivalence Principle Space Test (STE-QUEST) mission. However, the requirements on the instrument are still very challenging. For example, the specifications of the STE-QUEST mission imply that the Feshbach coils of the atom interferometer are allowed to change their radius only by about 260 nm or 2.6E-4% due to thermal expansion although they consume an average power of 22 W. Also Earth's magnetic field has to be suppressed by a factor of 10E5. We show in this article that with the right design such thermal and magnetic requirements can indeed be met and that these are not an impediment for the exciting physics possible with atom interferometers in space.

description: Context. The space weathering timescale of near-Earth S-type asteroids has been investigated by several approaches (i.e., experiments, sample analyses, and theoretical approaches), yet there are orders of magnitude differences. Aims. We aim to examine the space weathering timescale on a near-Earth S-type asteroid, Itokawa using Hayabusa-AMICA images and further investigate the evolutional process of the asteroid. Methods. We focused on bright mottles on the boulder surfaces generated via impacts with interplanetary dust particles (IDPs). We compared the bright mottle size distribution with an IDP flux model to determine the space weathering timescale. Results. As a result, we found that the space weathering timescale on Itokawa's boulder surfaces is 10$^3$ years (in the range of 10$^2$-10$^4$ years), which is consistent with the timescale of space weathering by light ions from the solar wind. Conclusions. From this result, we conclude that Itokawa's surface has been weathered shortly in 10$^3$ years but portions of the surface are exposed via seismic shaking triggered by a recent impact that created the Kamoi crater.

description: This New Jersey Future (NJF) position paper makes recommentions on smart growth in New Jersey and points out that municipalities or groups of municipalities anywhere in New Jersey can set up a transfer of development rights (TDR) program if they have approval from the State Planning Commission on their initial petition for Plan Endorsement. To launch TDR, they argue, a municipality or group of municipalities must amend its master plan in the three following ways: (1) Development, with an analysis of expected growth and a vision for how growth will be accommodated; (2) Adding a capital improvement plan for the receiving zone; and (3) Adding a utility service plan for the receiving zone.
Heisenberg versus standard scaling in quantum metrology with Markov generated states and monitored environment

Year: 2014

description: Finding optimal and noise robust probe states is a key problem in quantum metrology. In this paper we propose Markov dynamics as a possible mechanism for generating such states, and show how the Heisenberg scaling emerges for systems with multiple `dynamical phases' (stationary states), and noiseless channels. We model noisy channels by coupling the Markov output to `environment' ancillas, and consider the scenario where the environment is monitored to increase the quantum Fisher information of the output. In this setup we find that the survival of the Heisenberg limit depends on whether the environment receives `which phase' information about the memory system.

description: A search for exotic dark matter (DM) in the sub-GeV mass range has been conducted using 205 kg$\cdot$day data taken from a p-type point contact germanium detector of CDEX-10 experiment at China Jinping underground laboratory. New low-mass dark matter searching channels, neutral current fermionic DM absorption ($χ+A\rightarrow ν+A$) and DM-nucleus 3$\rightarrow$2 scattering ($χ+χ+A\rightarrow ϕ+A$), have been analyzed with an energy threshold of 160 eVee. No significant signal was found. Thus new limits on the DM-nucleon interaction cross section are set for both models at sub-GeV DM mass region. A cross section limit for the fermionic DM absorption is set to be $\rm 2.5\times 10^{-46} cm^2$(90\% C.L.) at DM mass of 10 MeV/c$^2$. For the DM-nucleus 3$\rightarrow$2 scattering scenario, limits are extended to DM mass of 5 MeV/c$^2$ and 14 MeV/c$^2$ for the massless dark photon and bound DM final state, respectively.

description: As required by New Jersey state law, all public schools must test for radon by September 2005 and every five years thereafter. Testing will identify rooms in whichradon levels are elevated, so that they can be remediated, thus protecting students and school personnel from exposure to unusually high radon concentrations. In order for testing to be effective, testers will need the cooperation of teachers and other school staff in several ways. This fact sheet outlines information about the testing process and rules for successful testing. It also contains a notice to be posted in areas where radon testing is occuring.

description: We study the dark nature of GRB 130528A through multi-wavelength observations and conclude that the main reason for the optical darkness is local extinction inside of the host galaxy. Automatic observations were performed at BOOTES-4/MET robotic telescope. We also triggered target of opportunity (ToO) observation at the OSN, IRAM PdBI and the GTC+OSIRIS. The host galaxy photometric observations in optical to near-infrared (nIR) wavelengths were achieved through large ground-based aperture telescopes, such as the 10.4m GTC, the 4.2m WHT, 6m BTA, and the 2m LT. Based on these observations, spectral energy distributions (SED) for the host galaxy and afterglow were constructed. Thanks to mm observations at PdBI, we confirm the presence of a mm source within the XRT error circle that faded over the course of our observations and identify the host galaxy. However, we do not find any credible optical source within early observations with BOOTES-4/MET and 1.5m OSN telescopes. Spectroscopic observation of this galaxy by GTC showed a single faint emission line that likely corresponds to [OII] 3727\{AA} at a redshift of 1.250+/-0.001 implying a SFR(M_sun/yr) > 6.18 M_sun/yr without correcting for dust extinction. The probable extinction was revealed through analysis of the afterglow SED, resulting in a value of AV >= ~ 0.9 at the rest frame, this is comparable to extinction levels found among other dark GRBs. The SED of the host galaxy is explained well (chi2/d.o.f.=0.564) by a luminous (MB=-21.16), low-extinction (AV =0, rest frame), and aged (2.6 Gyr) stellar population. We can explain this apparent contradiction in global and line-of-sight extinction if the GRB birth place happened to lie in a local dense environment. In light of having relatively small specific SFR (SSFR) ~ 5.3 M_sun/yr (L/L_star)-1, this also could explain the age of the old stellar population of host galaxy.

description: We study the gravitational radiation emission efficiency $Γ$ of superconducting cosmic strings. We demonstrate, by using a solvable model of transonic strings, that the presence of a current leads to a suppression of the gravitational emission of cusps, kinks and different types of loops. We also show that, when a current is present, the spectrum of emission of loops with cusps is exponentially suppressed as the harmonic mode increases, thus being significantly different from the power law spectrum of currentless loops. Furthermore, we establish a phenomenological relationship between $Γ$ and the value of the current on cosmic strings. We conjecture that this relation should be valid for an arbitrary type of current-carrying string. We use this result to study the potential impact of current on the stochastic gravitational wave background generated by cosmic strings with additional degrees of freedom and show that both the amplitude and shape of the spectrum may be significantly affected.

description: Drucker (2012) proved the following result: Unless the unlikely complexity-theoretic collapse coNP is in NP/poly occurs, there is no AND-compression for SAT. The result has implications for the compressibility and kernelizability of a whole range of NP-complete parameterized problems. We present a streamlined proof of Drucker's theorem. An AND-compression is a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm that maps a set of SAT-instances $x_1,\dots,x_t$ to a single SAT-instance $y$ of size poly(max $|x_i|$) such that $y$ is satisfiable if and only if all $x_i$ are satisfiable. The "AND" in the name stems from the fact that the predicate "$y$ is satisfiable" can be written as the AND of all predicates "$x_i$ is satisfiable". Drucker's result complements the result by Bodlaender et al. (2009) and Fortnow and Santhanam (2010), who proved the analogous statement for OR-compressions, and Drucker's proof not only subsumes that result but also extends it to randomized compression algorithms that are allowed to have a certain probability of failure. Drucker (2012) presented two proofs: The first uses information theory and the minimax theorem from game theory, and the second is an elementary, iterative proof that is not as general. In our proof, we realize the iterative structure as a generalization of the arguments of Ko (1983) for P-selective sets, which use the fact that tournaments have dominating sets of logarithmic size. We generalize this fact to hypergraph tournaments. Our proof achieves the full generality of Drucker's theorem, avoids the minimax theorem, and restricts the use of information theory to a single, intuitive lemma about the average noise sensitivity of compressive maps. To prove this lemma, we use the same information-theoretic inequalities as Drucker.

description: We study many-body-localized (MBL) systems that are weakly coupled to thermalizing environments, focusing on the spectral functions of local operators. We argue that these spectral functions carry signatures of localization even away from the limit of perfectly isolated systems. We find that, in the limit of vanishing coupling to a bath, MBL systems come in two varieties, with either discrete or continuous local spectra. Both varieties of MBL systems exhibit a "soft gap" at zero frequency in the spatially-averaged spectral functions of local operators, which serves as a diagnostic for localization. We estimate the degree to which coupling to a bath broadens these spectral features, and find that characteristics of incipient localization survive as long as the system-bath coupling is much weaker than the characteristic energy scales of the system. Since perfect isolation is impossible, we expect the ideas discussed in this paper to be relevant for all experiments on many-body localization.

description: We calculate the neutral current jet production semi-inclusive deeply inelastic scattering process in this paper. Neutral current implies that interactions can be mediated by the photon, $Z^0$-boson and their interference. The initial electron is assumed to be polarized and then scattered off by a target particle with spin-1/2. Calculations are carried out up to twist-3 level in the quantum chromodynamics parton model by applying the collinear expansion formalism where multiple gluon scattering is taken into account and gauge links are obtained automatically. After obtaining the differential cross section, we introduce the definition of the intrinsic asymmetry. This quantity reveals the asymmetry in the distribution of the quark intrinsic transverse momentum. We find that these asymmetries can be expressed in terms of the transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions and the electroweak couplings. As a result, our calculations provide a set of new quantities for analyzing the parton distribution functions and the electroweak couplings. It is helpful to understand the hadronic weak interactions and strong interactions in the deeply inelastic scattering process simultaneously.

description: The general k-essence Lagrangian for the existence of cosmological scaling solutions is derived in the presence of multiple scalar fields coupled to a barotropic perfect fluid. In addition to the scaling fixed point associated with the dynamics during the radiation and matter eras, we also obtain a scalar-field dominated solution relevant to dark energy and discuss the stability of them in the two-field set-up. We apply our general results to a model of two canonical fields with coupled exponential potentials arising in string theory. Depending on model parameters and initial conditions, we show that the scaling matter-dominated epochs followed by an attractor with cosmic acceleration can be realized with/without the couplings to scalar fields. The different types of scaling solutions can be distinguished from each other by the evolution of the dark energy equation of state from high-redshifts to today.

description: We study the electromagnetic response of the quark-gluon plasma in AA-collisions at RHIC and LHC energies for a realistic space-time evolution of the plasma fireball. We demonstrate that for a realistic electric conductivity the electromagnetic response of the plasma is in a quantum regime when the induced electric current does not generate a classical electromagnetic field, and can only lead to a rare emission of single photons.

description: The objective of this study was to determine the potential impacts of Pompton and Passaic River waters on the Wanaque Reservoir (when pumpted there through the Wanaque South pipeline) so that the need for more stringent wastewater treatment plant discharge requirements could be evaluated.  A secondary objective was to survey the Passaic-Pompton River watershed for the presence of toxic contaminants to determine if there were any 'hotspots' that would warrant further investigation, and to assess the potential loading of toxics into the Wanaque Reservoir from the Passaic-Pompton River system.
Spin Torque Oscillators with Thermal Noise: A Constant Energy Orbit Approach

description: We consider a biaxial macrospin with an easy and hard axis, and study its dynamical evolution under the combined effects of thermal noise and spin transfer torque. The spin-torque is associated with both a perpendicularly magnetized polarizer and an in-plane magnetized reference layer, leading to an effective tilt between the easy and spin polarization axes. Using techniques based on energy averaging over the relevant dynamical trajectories, we analyze the effects of tilt on the dynamics and derive the conditions for the occurrence of stable out-of-plane precessionary states. The presence of these states and their predicted stability boundaries can be tested in experiments on orthogonal spin-transfer devices, and may also serve as a test of the applicability of the macrospin model to real devices, which have internal magnetic degrees of freedom.

Towards a realistic population of simulated galaxy groups and clusters

description: We present a new suite of large-volume cosmological hydrodynamical simulations called cosmo-OWLS. They form an extension to the OverWhelmingly Large Simulations (OWLS) project, and have been designed to help improve our understanding of cluster astrophysics and non-linear structure formation, which are now the limiting systematic errors when using clusters as cosmological probes. Starting from identical initial conditions in either the Planck or WMAP7 cosmologies, we systematically vary the most important `sub-grid' physics, including feedback from supernovae and active galactic nuclei (AGN). We compare the properties of the simulated galaxy groups and clusters to a wide range of observational data, such as X-ray luminosity and temperature, gas mass fractions, entropy and density profiles, Sunyaev-Zel'dovich flux, I-band mass-to-light ratio, dominance of the brightest cluster galaxy, and central massive black hole (BH) masses, by producing synthetic observations and mimicking observational analysis techniques. These comparisons demonstrate that some AGN feedback models can produce a realistic population of galaxy groups and clusters, broadly reproducing both the median trend and, for the first time, the scatter in physical properties over approximately two decades in mass ($10^{13} \lesssim M_{500} \lesssim 10^{15}~\textrm{M}_{\odot}$) and 1.5 decades in radius ($0.05 \lesssim r/r_{500} \lesssim 1.5$). However, in other models, the AGN feedback is too violent (even though they reproduce the observed BH scaling relations), implying calibration of the models is required. The production of realistic populations of simulated groups and clusters, as well as models that bracket the observations, opens the door to the creation of synthetic surveys for assisting the astrophysical and cosmological interpretation of cluster surveys, as well as quantifying the impact of selection effects.

description: Perturbations of massless fields in the Kerr-Newman black hole background enjoy a (``Love'') SL$(2,\mathbb{R})$ symmetry in the suitably defined near zone approximation. We present a detailed study of this symmetry and show how the intricate behavior of black hole responses in four and higher dimensions can be understood from the SL$(2,\mathbb{R})$ representation theory. In particular, static perturbations of four-dimensional black holes belong to highest weight SL$\left(2,\mathbb{R}\right)$ representations. It is this highest weight property that forces the static Love numbers to vanish. We find that the Love symmetry is tightly connected to the enhanced isometries of extremal black holes. This relation is simplest for extremal charged spherically symmetric (Reissner-Nordström) solutions, where the Love symmetry exactly reduces to the isometry of the near horizon AdS$_2$ throat. For rotating (Kerr-Newman) black holes one is lead to consider an infinite-dimensional SL$\left(2,\mathbb{R}\right)\ltimes \hat U(1)_{\mathcal{V}}$ extension of the Love symmetry. It contains three physically distinct subalgebras: the Love algebra, the Starobinsky near zone algebra, and the near horizon algebra that becomes the Bardeen-Horowitz isometry in the extremal limit. We also discuss other aspects of the Love symmetry, such as the geometric meaning of its generators for spin weighted fields, connection to the no-hair theorems, non-renormalization of Love numbers, its relation to (non-extremal) Kerr/CFT correspondence and prospects of its existence in modified theories of gravity.

Self-induced Spatial Dynamics to Enhance Spin-Squeezing via One-Axis Twisting in a Two-Component Bose-Einstein Condensate

description: We theoretically investigate a scheme to enhance spin squeezing in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) by utilizing the inherent mean-field dynamics of the condensate. Due to the asymmetry in the scattering lengths, the two components exhibit density oscillations where they spatially separate and recombine. The effective non-linearity responsible for spin squeezing is increased by up to three orders of magnitude when the two components spatially separate \cite{treutlein2010}. We perform a multi-mode simulation of the system using the truncated Wigner method, and show that this method can be used to create significant spin squeezing in systems where the effective nonlinearity would ordinarily be too small, and that strong spatial dynamics resulting from large particle numbers aren't necessarily detrimental to generating spin-squeezing. We develop a simplified semi-analytic model that gives good agreement with our multi-mode simulation, and will be useful for predicting spin-squeezing in a range of different systems.

description: Despite their technological relevance, a full microscopic understanding of glasses is still lacking. This applies even more to their surfaces whose properties largely differ from that of the bulk material. Here, we experimentally investigate the surface of a two-dimensional glass as a function of the effective temperature. To yield a free surface, we use an attractive colloidal suspension of micron-sized particles interacting via tunable critical Casimir forces. Similar to crystals, we observe surface melting of the glass, i.e., the formation of a liquid film at the surface well below the glass temperature. Underneath, however, we find an unexpected region with bulk density but much faster particle dynamics. It results from connected clusters of highly mobile particles which are formed near the surface and deeply percolate into the underlying material. Because its thickness can reach several tens of particle diameters, this layer may elucidate the poorly understood properties of thin glassy films which find use in many technical applications

Towards a Likelihood Ratio Approach for Bloodstain Pattern Analysis

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Applications (stat.AP)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this work, we explore the application of likelihood ratio as a forensic evidence assessment tool to evaluate the causal mechanism of a bloodstain pattern. It is assumed that there are two competing hypotheses regarding the cause of a bloodstain pattern. The bloodstain patterns are represented as a collection of ellipses with each ellipses characterized by its location, size and orientation. Quantitative measures and features are derived to summarize key aspects of the patterns. A bivariate Gaussian model is chosen to estimate the distribution of features under a given hypothesis and thus approximate the likelihood of a pattern. Published data with 59 impact patterns and 55 gunshot patterns is used to train and evaluate the model. Results demonstrate the feasibility of the likelihood ratio approach for bloodstain pattern analysis. The results also hint at some of the challenges that need to be addressed for future use of the likelihood ratio approach for bloodstain pattern analysis.

description: The 1986 Federal Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments direct all states to develop a Well Head Protection Program (WHPP) for both public community and public non-community water supply wells.  The delineation of Well Head ProtectionAreas (WHPA's) is one component of the WHPP. It is the purpose of these guidelines to establish the approved methods for delineation and submission of WHPA's in New Jersey. In accordance with the Source Water Assessment Program(SWAP), the Department will delineate WHPA's for all existing and new community water supply (CWS) and non-community supply wells (NCWS). Based upon their own needs, concerns or requirements for both CWS and NCWS wells, interested parties may perform WHPA delineations at an advanced level as defined later in this guidance.

description: This document reports on a study that was conducted to determine New Jersey anglers participation in fishing, harvest, and opinions on fishing regulations and fishing programs. In 2002, the Division of Fish and Wildlife of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection had Responsive Management, a nationally recognized research firm specializing in fisheries and other natural resource issues, conduct a survey to provide data on the angling public's level of satisfaction with the opportunities offered in New Jersey. The study entailed a telephone survey of licensed anglers in New Jersey. The survey was conducted in August 2003. A total of 806 completed interviews were obtained. Questions were posed about: License and stamp purchasing; fishing participation, ice fishing, people fished with, and locations of fishing; species fished for, trips to fish for that species, satisfaction, and harvest; rating of fishing opportunities and access in NJ, rating of the Division of Fish and Wildlife, and rating of the Bureau of Freshwater Fisheries; factors affecting enjoyment of fishing; and rating of importance of division programs.
