description: As a first step towards a comprehensive investigation of stellar motions within globular clusters, we present here the results of a study of stellar orbits in a mildly triaxial globular cluster that follows a circular orbit inside a galaxy. The stellar orbits were classified using the frequency analysis code of Carpintero and Aguilar and, as a check, the Liapunov characteristic exponents were also computed in some cases. The orbit families were obtained using different start spaces. Chaotic orbits turn out to be very common and while, as could be expected, they are particularly abundant in the outer parts of the cluster, they are still significant in the innermost regions. Their relevance for the structure of the cluster is discussed.

description: This paper is concerned with the modeling and control of a curling Hydraulically Amplified Self-healing Electrostatic (HASEL) actuator using the port-Hamiltonian (PH) approach. For that purpose, we use a modular approach and consider the HASEL actuator as an interconnection of elementary subsystems. Each subsystem is modeled by an electrical component consisting of a capacitor in parallel with an inductor connected through the conservation of volume of the moving liquid to a mechanical structure based on inertia, linear, and torsional springs. The parameters are then identified, and the model is validated on the experimental setup. Position control is achieved by using Interconnection and Damping Assignment-Passivity Based Control (IDA-PBC) with integral action (IA) for disturbance rejection. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed controller.

description: Evaluating the statistical dimension is a common tool to determine the asymptotic phase transition in compressed sensing problems with Gaussian ensemble. Unfortunately, the exact evaluation of the statistical dimension is very difficult and it has become standard to replace it with an upper-bound. To ensure that this technique is suitable, [1] has introduced an upper-bound on the gap between the statistical dimension and its approximation. In this work, we first show that the error bound in [1] in some low-dimensional models such as total variation and $\ell_1$ analysis minimization becomes poorly large. Next, we develop a new error bound which significantly improves the estimation gap compared to [1]. In particular, unlike the bound in [1] that is not applicable to settings with overcomplete dictionaries, our bound exhibits a decaying behavior in such cases.

description: In order to overcome the emission of carcinogenic ‘polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon’ from aromatic oils, which are restricted in European countries since 2010, various efforts have been made to replace the aromatic oil in rubber-based compounds either fully or partially. Liquid isoprene rubber (LIR) was used as a reactive plasticizer in natural rubber (NR) compound at different loadings (2, 4, 6 and 8 phr) and its effect on viscosity, curing characteristics and physico-mechanical properties. The results were compared with those of the control compound containing conventional aromatic oil as plasticizer. The minimum torque for the control compound was 0.33 dNm and that for LIR based compounds ranged between 0.16 and 0.56 dNm. The LIR based compounds exhibited a slightly higher Mooney viscosity but offered the same scorch safety. The results support the utility of LIR as a promising alternative as revealed by the comparable rheological and physico-mechanical properties that are attained with the usage of appropriate quantity of LIR, unlike the other alternatives of the previous investigations that usually showed a difference in the properties

Microlensing in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Lessons from an N-body Simulation

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We analyse an N-body simulation of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), that of Gardiner & Noguchi (1996) to determine its microlensing statistics. We find that the optical depth due to self-lensing in the simulation is low, 0.4 x 10^{-7}, but still consistent (at the 90% level) with that observed by the EROS and MACHO collaborations. This low optical depth is due to the relatively small line of sight thickness of the SMC produced in the simulation. The proper motions and time scales of the simulation are consistent with those observed assuming a standard mass function for stars in the SMC. The time scale distribution from the standard mass function generates a significant fraction of short time scale events: future self-lensing events towards the SMC may have the same time scales as events observed towards the Large Magellanic CLoud (LMC). Although some debris was stripped from the SMC during its collision with the LMC about 2x10^8 yr ago, the optical depth of the LMC due to this debris is low, a few times 10^{-9}, and thus cannot explain the measured optical depth towards the LMC.

description: We explore the general question of correlations among different waveband luminosities in a flux-limited multiband observational data set. Such correlations, often observed for astronomical sources, may either be intrinsic or induced by the redshift evolution of the luminosities and the data truncation due to the flux limits. We first address this question analytically. We then use simulated flux-limited data with three different known intrinsic luminosity correlations, and prescribed luminosity functions and evolution similar to the ones expected for quasars. We explore how the intrinsic nature of luminosity correlations can be deduced, including exploring the efficacy of partial correlation analysis with redshift binning in determining whether luminosity correlations are intrinsic and finding the form of the intrinsic correlation. By applying methods that we have developed in recent works, we show that we can recover the true cosmological evolution of the luminosity functions and the intrinsic correlations between the luminosities. Finally, we demonstrate the methods for determining intrinsic luminosity correlations on actual observed samples of quasars with mid-infrared, radio, and optical fluxes and redshifts, finding that the luminosity-luminosity correlation is significantly stronger between mid-infrared and optical than that between radio and optical luminosities, supporting the canonical jet-launching and heating model of active galaxies.

Finite-time system identification, estimation and fault detection
Creators: name: Li, Peng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: As an increasingly spoken-about topic in modern control engineering, the finite-time identification and estimation problems are dealt with in this thesis. Two kernel-based schemes are proposed that successfully achieve finite-time estimation for parameter and state respectively. Induced by suitably shaped kernels, the Volterra integral operators are used to avoid explicit time-differentiation and thus accomplish the finite-time estimation. Based on the pioneering works, the target of this thesis is to fully develop the kernel-based methodology and devise deadbeat schemes for several kinds of problems - thus enhancing the estimation speed. Beyond the state estimation, a novel kernel-based estimation framework is designed to address the demand for parameter-state joint estimation. The system parameters and state variables are reconstructed simultaneously which removes the hierarchical correction process in conventional approaches. The proposed scheme is applied to construct a non-asymptotic fault diagnosis architecture for interconnected networks that shortens the fault diagnosis time. As an important link from estimation to control systems, derivative estimation is dealt with based on Volterra integral operators. The problem is formulated in a state estimation prospect, thus the kernel-based scheme can be effective to obtain non-asymptotic numerical differentiation. Deploying the kernel-based tools, a novel estimation scheme is designed to address the speed-demanding localization problem. Volterra operators and suitably shaped kernels ensure fast and robust estimation of the target position. Moreover, the kernel-based methodology is applied to identify exponentially damped sinusoidal (EDS) signals in a comprehensive way. A new kernel is designed to reconstruct the initial conditions that allow identifying more parameters of the EDS than the existing methods. The robustness of the above algorithms is analyzed by input-to-state stable characterization based on the internally stable realizations. Analysis of the numerical aspects provides hints to algorithm implementations. The effectiveness of the estimators is examined and compared with existing works via simulations.

Models for High-Redshift Lyman Alpha Emitters

Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present models for dusty high-redshift Lyman alpha emitting galaxies by combining the Press-Schechter formalism with a treatment of inhomogeneous dust distribution inside galaxies. These models reproduce the surface density of emitters inferred from recent observations, and also agree with previous non-detections. Although a detailed determination of the individual model parameters is precluded by uncertainties, we find that (i) the dust content of primordial galaxies builds up in no more than 5x10^8 years, (ii) the galactic HII regions are inhomogeneous with a cloud covering factor of order unity, and (iii) the overall star formation efficiency is at least 5 percent. Future observations should be able to detect Lyman alpha galaxies upto redshifts of about z=8. If the universe is reionized at z(reion)<8, the corresponding decline in the number of Lyman alpha emitters at z>z(reion) could prove to be a useful probe of the reionization epoch.

Construction of optimized tight-binding models using \textit{ab initio} Hamiltonian: Application to monolayer $2H$-transition metal dichalcogenides

description: We present optimized tight-binding models with atomic orbitals to improve \textit{ab initio} tight-binding models constructed by truncating full density functional theory (DFT) Hamiltonian based on localized orbitals. Retaining qualitative features of the original Hamiltonian, the optimization reduces quantitative deviations in overall band structures between the \textit{ab initio} tight-binding model and the full DFT Hamiltonian. The optimization procedure and related details are demonstrated by using semiconducting and metallic Janus transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers in the $2H$ configuration. Varying the truncation range from partial second neighbors to third ones, we show differences in electronic structures between the truncated tight-binding model and the original full Hamiltonian, and how much the optimization can remedy the quantitative loss induced by truncation. We further elaborate the optimization process so that local electronic properties such as valence and conduction band edges and Fermi surfaces are precisely reproduced by the optimized tight-binding model. We also extend our discussions to tight-binding models including spin-orbit interactions, so we provide the optimized tight-binding model replicating spin-related properties of the original Hamiltonian such as spin textures. The optimization process described here can be readily applied to construct the fine-tuned tight-binding model based on various DFT calculations.

Caustic Crossing Microlensing Event by Binary MACHOs and Time Scale Bias
Creators: name: Honma, Mareki
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Caustic crossing microlensing events provide us a unique opportunity to measure the relative proper motion of the lens to the source, and so those caused by binary MACHOs are of great importance for understanding the structure of the Galactic halo and the nature of MACHOs. The microlensing event 98-SMC-01, occurred in June 1998, is the first event for which the proper motion is ever measured through the caustic crossing, and this event may be caused by binary MACHOs as we argue in this Letter. Motivated by the possible existence of binary MACHOs, we have performed the Monte Carlo simulations of caustic crossing events by binary MACHOs and investigated the properties and detectability of the events. Our calculation shows that typical caustic crossing events have the interval between two caustic crossings ($t_{\rm cc}$) of about 5 days. We argue that with the current strategy of binary event search the proper motions of these typical events are not measurable because of the short time scale. Therefore the proper motion distribution measured from caustic crossing events suffers significantly from {`}time scale bias{'}, which is a bias toward finding long time scale events and hence slowly moving lenses. We predict there are two times more short time scale events ($t_{\rm cc}\le 10$ days) than long time scale events ($t_{\rm cc}\ge 10$ days), and propose an hourly monitoring observation instead of the nightly monitoring currently undertaken to detect caustic crossing events by binary MACHOs more efficiently.

Coded content caching and delivery over wireless networks
Creators: name: Yang, Qianqian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Coded caching is a novel form of content caching for wireless networks to relieve the congestion during peak-traffic periods by exploiting the temporal variability of wireless traffic. During the off-peak traffic periods, popular contents are partially placed into users' local caches without the knowledge of user demands, and the rest of the contents are transmitted when the demands are revealed during the peak traffic periods. Compared to traditional caching, a significant reduction in the delivery rate is achieved due to coded multicasting opportunities created by the joint design of the placement and delivery phases even when users request distinct contents. In this dissertation, we investigate coded caching under four different network models. First, cache-aided coded content delivery is studied for devices with diverse quality-of-service (QoS) requirements. It is assumed that each user in the system has a distinct QoS requirement. The optimal coded caching scheme is proposed for the special cases of different two-user scenarios, while for the general cases, both centralized and decentralized coded caching schemes are proposed. Next, asynchronous user demands are considered, and both the nonuniform file popularity and the audience retention rates are taken into account. We propose a decentralized coded caching scheme, which shows a significant improvement over uncoded caching in terms of the average delivery rate, or the extension of other known delivery methods to the asynchronous scenario. Then, we study coded caching and delivery taking into account the correlations among the contents in the library. A correlation-aware coded caching scheme is proposed, which is shown to substantially outperform state-of-the-art correlation-ignorant solutions. Finally, together with a correlated library, we consider the situation when the content delivery is carried out over a Gaussian broadcast channel (BC). A lower bound and an upper bound on the minimum transmission power required to satisfy all possible demand combinations is characterized. Our results indicate that coded delivery, and particularly exploiting the correlations among the contents in a cache-aided Gaussain BC can provide significant energy savings.

Thermal effects in topological systems
Creators: name: Self, Christopher Nigel
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Topological systems are an exciting frontier of condensed matter physics, as well as having deep relationships to quantum computing. Progress continues to be made both towards building practical quantum computers and experimentally identifying topological features in real materials. However, these attempts have to contend with the messiness of the real world including the effects of finite temperatures. In quantum computing thermal errors are studied through the framework of quantum error correction. This allows a characterisation of how damaging these errors are, and has provided many general results on the limits of how well given quantum codes can endure thermal errors. In the first part of this thesis we study the typical response of one of the best known quantum codes (the two-dimensional toric code) when subjected to thermal noise. This typical behaviour is compared to the limiting bounds and we note differences that arise due to entropic effects. Topological features are typically properties of the ground state of a system. In some cases this means finite temperatures can be damaging, washing out the topological properties with excitations above the ground state. But in other cases it has been shown that topological systems can have their own unique finite temperature behaviours, which can be used to identify them. In the second part of the thesis we study the topological model Kitaev's honeycomb. Fixing certain conserved quantities restricts the model to special sectors, some of which carry topological phases. We begin by investigating an intrinsically finite temperature property of these topological phases, thermal edge currents. At too high temperatures, close to the bulk gap, the topological behaviour of these currents breaks down. However, we show that at lower temperatures they can be identified and shown to have the expected properties such as robustness to perturbations. Following this we investigate the thermal states of the full model. Our approach to this allows us to probe the topological order of the model in a way that has not been done before and we identify a number of interesting new features of the finite temperature physics.

description: We present improved timing parameters for 13 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) including 9 new proper motion measurements. These new proper motions bring to 23 the number of MSPs with measured transverse velocities. In light of these new results we present and compare the kinematic properties of MSPs with those of ordinary pulsars. The mean transverse velocity of MSPs was found to be 85+/-13 km/s; a value consistent with most models for the origin and evolution of MSPs and approximately a factor of four lower than that of ordinary pulsars. We also find that, in contrast to young ordinary pulsars, the vast majority of which are moving away from the Galactic plane, almost half of the MSPs are moving towards the plane. This near isotropy would be expected of a population that has reached dynamic equilibrium. Accurate measurements of MSP velocities have allowed us to correct their measured spin-down rates for Doppler acceleration effects, and thereby derive their intrinsic magnetic field strengths and characteristic ages. We find that close to half of our sample of MSPs have a characteristic age comparable to or greater than the age of the Galaxy.

THE ROLE OF HERBS IN MANAGEMENT OF VIRAL DISEASES

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Herbal medicine has gained significant attention as a complementary approach to treating viral diseases, particularly in the context of increasing drug resistance and the side effects associated with conventional antiviral medications. Various herbal plants have demonstrated antiviral properties through their phytochemical constituents, such as flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids. The review highlighting their mechanisms of action, efficacy, and traditional uses in managing viral infections like influenza, hepatitis, and COVID-19. The findings suggest that while herbal remedies can provide supportive treatment and enhance immune response, further clinical trials are necessary to establish their efficacy and safety profiles. Integrating these herbal treatments into conventional therapies may offer a holistic approach to viral disease management. Herbal medicine has emerged as a promising avenue for the treatment and management of viral diseases, particularly due to the growing concerns over the side effects of conventional antiviral drugs and the rising incidence of drug-resistant viral strains.

description: The present study aims at discussing the various pragmatic functions of the Arabic discourse marker (DM) bas in Jordanian Arabic (JA). The DM bas, which literally means “enough”, has over time accumulated a variety of contextual meanings, and has become one of the most commonly used discourse markers in the daily interactions of JA native speakers. In order to meet the purpose of this study, a corpus of 22 dyadic conversations by native speakers of JA was compiled. 605 instances of the DM bas were extracted from the data. An eclectic analytical methodology has been adopted as a theoretical framework in the analysis of the DM bas, particularly Fraser’s (2006a) grammatical-pragmatic approach. In pragmatically marked contexts, the results revealed that the DM bas can be considered multifunctional serving twelve different functions: Denying of expectation; making a repair; indicating insufficiency of information; returning to main topic; signaling topic shift; showing a threat; mitigating a face-threatening act (FTA); indicating a completion of cognitive process; and acting as a filler marker, directive marker, expressive marker, and modifier.

description: Motivated by precision counting of BPS black holes, we analyze six-derivative couplings in the low energy effective action of three-dimensional string vacua with 16 supercharges. Based on perturbative computations up to two-loop, supersymmetry and duality arguments, we conjecture that the exact coefficient of the $\nabla^2(\nablaϕ)^4$ effective interaction is given by a genus-two modular integral of a Siegel theta series for the non-perturbative Narain lattice times a specific meromorphic Siegel modular form. The latter is familiar from the Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde (DVV) conjecture on exact degeneracies of 1/4-BPS dyons. We show that this Ansatz reproduces the known perturbative corrections at weak heterotic coupling, including tree-level, one- and two-loop corrections, plus non-perturbative effects of order $e^{-1/g_3^2}$. We also examine the weak coupling expansions in type I and type II string duals and find agreement with known perturbative results, as well as new predictions for higher genus perturbative contributions. In the limit where a circle in the internal torus decompactifies, our Ansatz predicts the exact $\nabla^2 F^4$ effective interaction in four-dimensional CHL string vacua, along with infinite series of exponentially suppressed corrections of order $e^{-R}$ from Euclideanized BPS black holes winding around the circle, and further suppressed corrections of order $e^{-R^2}$ from Taub-NUT instantons. We show that instanton corrections from 1/4-BPS black holes are precisely weighted by the BPS index predicted from the DVV formula, including the detailed moduli dependence. We also extract two-instanton corrections from pairs of 1/2-BPS black holes, demonstrating consistency with supersymmetry and wall-crossing, and estimate the size of instanton-anti-instanton contributions.

description: Coherent control of individual molecular spins in nano-devices is a pivotal prerequisite for fulfilling the potential promised by molecular spintronics. By applying electric field pulses during time-resolved electron spin resonance measurements, we measure the sensitivity of the spin in several antiferromagnetic molecular nanomagnets to external electric fields. We find a linear electric field dependence of the spin states in Cr$_7$Mn, an antiferromagnetic ring with a ground-state spin of $S=1$, and in a frustrated Cu$_3$ triangle, both with coefficients of about $2~\mathrm{rad}\, \mathrm{s}^{-1} / \mathrm{V} \mathrm{m}^{-1}$. Conversely, the antiferromagnetic ring Cr$_7$Ni, isomorphic with Cr$_7$Mn but with $S=1/2$, does not exhibit a detectable effect. We propose that the spin-electric field coupling may be used for selectively controlling individual molecules embedded in nanodevices.

On the morphology of the word tawriya according to al-Ṣafadī (d. 764/1363): Between Baṣrans and Kūfans
Creators: name: Rizzo, Luca
Publisher: name: Kervan. International Journal of African and Asian Studies

description: The starting-point for this article is the statement made by al-Ṣafadī (d. 764/1363) that the Arabic word tawriya has the original form (aṣl) *wawriya, corresponding to the pattern (wazn) tafʿila, in which the first radical wāw has been replaced by the segment /t/. I aim to shed light on this derivation postulated by al-Ṣafadī by investigating the major sources of grammatical, morphological, and etymological studies which were then available to him. I analyse the sources chronologically to arrive at a better understanding of developments in morphology in the period from the first authors to al-Ṣafadī’s contemporaries. I show that al-Ṣafadī was influenced by the disquisitions of the two main schools of Arabic thought on grammar: those of Baṣra and Kūfa. He was influenced in particular regarding the question of how to attribute the patterns to some words like tawrāt, with the Baṣran grammarians positing that it is fawʿala, and those belonging to the Kūfa school maintaining that it is according to the pattern tafʿala. Moreover, and precisely because some scholars assume that tawriya and tawrāt have a common etymology, al-Ṣafadī postulates that, besides having the same root, they also share the same original form, meaning that both words underwent the same phonological and morphological mutations.

description: We introduce a family of implicit probabilistic integrators for initial value problems (IVPs), taking as a starting point the multistep Adams-Moulton method. The implicit construction allows for dynamic feedback from the forthcoming time-step, in contrast to previous probabilistic integrators, all of which are based on explicit methods. We begin with a concise survey of the rapidly-expanding field of probabilistic ODE solvers. We then introduce our method, which builds on and adapts the work of Conrad et al. (2016) and Teymur et al. (2016), and provide a rigorous proof of its well-definedness and convergence. We discuss the problem of the calibration of such integrators and suggest one approach. We give an illustrative example highlighting the effect of the use of probabilistic integrators - including our new method - in the setting of parameter inference within an inverse problem.

description: We present initial results of a survey for star-forming galaxies in the redshift range 3.8 < z < 4.5. This sample consists of a photometric catalog of 244 galaxies culled from a total solid angle of 0.23 square degrees to an apparent magnitude of I_{AB}=25.0. Spectroscopic redshifts in the range 3.61 < z < 4.81 have been obtained for 48 of these galaxies; their median redshift is =4.13. Selecting these galaxies in a manner entirely analogous to our large survey for Lyman break galaxies at smaller redshift (2.7 < z < 3.4) allows a relatively clean differential comparison between the populations and integrated luminosity density at these two cosmic epochs. Over the same range of UV luminosity, the spectroscopic properties of the galaxy samples at z~4 and z~3 are indistinguishable, as are the luminosity function shapes and the total integrated UV luminosity densities (rho_{UV}(z=3)/rho_{UV}(z=4) = 1.1 +/-0.3). We see no evidence at these bright magnitudes for the steep decline in the star formation density inferred from fainter photometric Lyman-break galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF). If the true luminosity density at z~4 is somewhat higher than implied by the HDF, as our ground-based sample suggests, then the emissivity of star formation as a function of redshift is essentially constant for all z>1 once internally consistent corrections for dust are made. This suggests that there is no obvious peak in star formation activity, and that the onset of substantial star formation in galaxies occurs at z > 4.5. [abridged abstract]
