description: By using the arc-melting method, we successfully synthesized the compound Sc$_{0.5}$Zr$_{0.5}$Co with the space group of $Pm$-$3m$. Both the resistivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal a phase transition at about 86 K. This transition might be attributed to the establishment of an antiferromagnetic order. The magnetization hysteresis loop measurements in wide temperature region show a weak ferromagnetic feature, which suggests a possible canted arrangement of the magnetic moments. Bounded by the phase transition temperature, the resistivity at ambient pressure shows a change from Fermi liquid behavior to a super-linear behavior as temperature increases. By applying pressures up to 32.1 GPa, the transition temperature does not show a clear change and no superconductivity is observed above 2 K. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations confirm the existence of the antiferromagnetic order and reveal a gap between the spin-up and spin-down $d$-orbital electrons. This kind of behavior may suggest that the antiferromagnetic order in this compound originates from the localized $d$-electrons which do not contribute to the conductance. Thus the itinerant and localized $d$-orbital electrons in the compound are decoupled.

description: The full parameter space of Hermitian quark mass matrices with four texture zeros is explored by using current experimental data. We find that all ten free parameters of the four-zero quark mass matrices can well be constrained. In particular, only one of the two phase parameters plays an important role in CP violation. The structural features of this specific pattern of quark mass matrices are also discussed in detail.

description: In Bayesian optimization, accounting for the importance of the output relative to the input is a crucial yet challenging exercise, as it can considerably improve the final result but often involves inaccurate and cumbersome entropy estimations. We approach the problem from the perspective of importance-sampling theory, and advocate the use of the likelihood ratio to guide the search algorithm towards regions of the input space where the objective function to be minimized assumes abnormally small values. The likelihood ratio acts as a sampling weight and can be computed at each iteration without severely deteriorating the overall efficiency of the algorithm. In particular, it can be approximated in a way that makes the approach tractable in high dimensions. The "likelihood-weighted" acquisition functions introduced in this work are found to outperform their unweighted counterparts in a number of applications.

Persistent oscillations versus thermalization in the quench dynamics of quantum gases with long-range interactions

description: Searching for nonthermalized dynamics in interacting quantum systems is not only of fundamental theoretical interest in nonequilibrium quantum physics, but also of immense practical significance in quantum information processing. In this paper, we study quantum quench dynamics in an hard-core bosonic model with infinite-range interactions, which have been realized in recent high-finesse cavity experiments. We show the long-time dynamics of this model can exhibit either undamped oscillations or thermalization depending on the choice of initial states. The long-range nature of the interactions rather than conserved quantities are responsible for such nonergodic dynamical behaviors.

Here we present a detailed theoretical calculation of the damped Rabi oscillations and time evolution of the 1s and 2p+ donor states in bulk GaAs under an external magnetic field and in the presence of terahertz laser radiation, and their influence on the measured photocurrent. We also detail the possible experimental conditions under which decoherence is weak and qubit operations are efficiently controlled.

description: Higher spin tensor gauge fields have natural gauge-invariant field equations written in terms of generalised curvatures, but these are typically of higher than second order in derivatives. We construct geometric second order field equations and actions for general higher spin boson fields, and first order ones for fermions, which are non-local but which become local on gauge-fixing, or on introducing auxiliary fields. This generalises the results of Francia and Sagnotti to all representations of the Lorentz group.

description: We investigate the ground state properties of a non-locally coupled bosonic system in a bilayer optical superlattice by considering bosons in one layer to be of softcore in nature and separately allowing two and three body hardcore constraints on the other layer. We find that the presence of different constraints on bosons in one layer influences the overall phase diagram exhibiting various Mott insulator phases at incommensurate densities due to the presence of the superlattice potential apart from the usual Mott insulators at commensurate densities. Moreover, the presence of two or three-body constraints significantly modifies the Mott insulator-Superfluid phase transition points as a function of the superlattice potential. Due to the various competing interactions, constraints and superlattice potential the phase diagrams exhibit significantly different features. We obtain the complete phase diagrams by using the cluster-mean-field theory approach. We further extend this work to a coupled two-leg ladder superlattice where we obtain similar physics using the density matrix renormalization group method .

The Effect of Bulge Mass on Bar Pattern Speed in Disk Galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present a study of the effect of bulge mass on the evolution of bar pattern speed in isolated disk galaxies using N-body simulations. Earlier studies have shown that disk stars at the inner resonances can transfer a significant amount of angular momentum to the dark matter halo and this results in the slow down of the bar pattern speed. In this paper we investigate how the mass of the other spheroidal component, the bulge, affects bar pattern speeds. In our galaxy models the initial bars are all rotating fast as the R parameter, which is the ratio of the corotation radius to bar radius is less than 1.4, which is typical of fast bars. However, as the galaxies evolve with time, the bar pattern speed ($Ω_p$ ) slows down leading to R $>$1.4 for all the models except for the model with the most massive bulge, in which the bar formed late and did not have time to evolve. The rapid slowdown of $Ω_p$ is due to the larger angular momentum transfer from the disk to the bulge, and is due to interactions between stars at the inner resonances and those in the bar. Hence we conclude that the decrease in $Ω_p$ clearly depends on bulge mass in barred galaxies and decreases faster for galaxies with more massive bulges. We discuss the implications of our results for observations of bar pattern speeds in galaxies.

description: In the quest to reduce global under- and malnutrition, which is particularly high among smallholder farmers, agriculture-nutrition linkages have received a lot of attention in recent years. Researchers have analysed the link between the quantity of food that farmers produce and nutritional outcomes and the link between farm diversity and consumption diversity. A third agriculture-nutrition link has been largely neglected in recent years: the impact of how food is produced on human energy requirements, and, consequently, nutritional outcomes. This neglect persists despite the fact that the majority of smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa rely on hand tools for farming, which implies heavy physical work and, thus, high energy requirements. To address this research gap, the present study compares the energy requirements of farm households in rural Zambia that are characterized by three different levels of mechanization: hand tools, animal draught power and tractors. Detailed time-use as well as food and nutrition data was collected from male and female adults and from children during different seasons: land preparation, weeding and harvesting/processing. Subjects recorded time-use themselves using an innovative picture-based smartphone app called “Timetracker”. The time-use data served to calculate daily energy requirements using “Ainsworth’s Compendium of Physical Activities”. To analyse the link between mechanization and energy use as well as nutritional outcomes, linear mixed models and multiple linear regressions were used. The results show that during land preparation, individuals in non-mechanized households are, on the average, not able to meet their dietary energy requirements. In subsequent farming periods, results are more mixed. Gender differences are noteworthy throughout, with men mostly having higher physical activity levels and energy requirements compared to women The findings suggest that farm technologies affect nutritional outcomes substantially and that this neglected agriculture-nutrition linkage deserves more scientific and political attention in order to reduce the prevalence of both under- and malnutrition among smallholder farmers, while safeguarding against emerging double burden of nutrition.

description: We discuss, in terms of particle acceleration, the results from optical VLT observations of hot spots associated with radio galaxies. On the basis of observational and theoretical grounds, it is shown that: 1. relatively low radio-radio power hot spots are the optimum candidates for being detected at optical waves. This is supported by an unprecedented optical detection rate of 70% out of a sample of low radio power hot spots. 2. the shape of the synchrotron spectrum of hot spots is mainly determined by the strength of the magnetic field in the region. In particular, the break frequency, related to the age of the oldest electrons in the hot spots, is found to increase with decreasing synchrotron power and magnetic field strength. Both observational results are in agreement with an in-situ particle acceleration scenario.

description: Short Food Supply Chains (SFSCs) are central to the alternative food movement discourse. SFSCs are based upon the interrelations among actors who are directly involved in the production, processing, distribution, and consumption of food products. They depend upon actors mobilising resources of various kinds: skills; knowledge; labour; capital; buildings etc. External factors such as policies and regulations can also encourage the creation of these shorter chains. The development of SFSCs can still be hindered by a range of other factors. Nevertheless, bottlenecks can be overcome via the sharing of information on successful SFSCs through the dissemination of Good Practices between various actors and territories. The Short Supply Chain Knowledge and Innovation (SKIN) project uses the term ‘good’ rather than ‘best’ practice to draw attention to the subjective lens through which a practice is ultimately evaluated by an end-user. This paper first outlines the many issues that confront SFSC actors which represent bottlenecks to the adoption of ‘Good Practices’. It then documents the Good Practices collected as part of the SKIN project as tangible examples of how SFSCs overcome such challenges. Lessons learnt from project highlights are subsequently assessed in an effort to mitigate and offer solutions to the challenges associated with SFSCs. The paper demonstrates the considerable latent potential inherent to SFSCs. However, in order for the agricultural sector to realise the full promise of short supply chains it must first be conscious of the issues pertinent to their prosperity.

description: We propose a one-way coupled model that tracks individual primary particles in a conceptually simple cellular flow setup to predict flocculation in turbulence. This computationally efficient model accounts for Stokes drag, lubrication, cohesive and direct contact forces on the primary spherical particles and allows for a systematic simulation campaign that yields the transient mean floc size as a function of the governing dimensionless parameters. The simulations reproduce the growth of the cohesive flocs with time, and the emergence of a log-normal equilibrium distribution governed by the balance of aggregation and breakage. Flocculation proceeds most rapidly when the Stokes number of the primary particles is \textit{O}(1). Results from this simple computational model are consistent with experimental observations, thus allowing us to propose a new analytical flocculation model that yields improved agreement with experimental data, especially during the transient stages.

description: A “farmers’ market” identifies a common area where farmers meet periodically to sell food products which do not need to be processed before consumption. Farmers’ markets have recently experienced steady growth mainly due to increasing demand for traditional foods and rising consumers’ interest towards locally produced food products. It is also the case that they provide transparency along the supply chain and decrease information asymmetries. This study attempts to define the farmers and consumers of farmers’ markets in terms of both their socio-demographic and their attitudinal characteristics. Data gathering was performed carrying out face-to-face interviews with sixty farmers and consumers. The study findings show that the majority of consumers purchasing at farmers’ markets are women, with an average age of 49 and with a high level of education. They attach great value to the availability of fresh and organic products with a good value for money. Farmers, by contrast, are mainly male, with an average age of 45 years, a high school degree and several years of experience in farming. They value more the creation of a direct and durable relationship with consumers in order to convey information about the quality and authenticity of their products. The study offers useful implications to policy makers on how to encourage the creation of farmers’ markets as well as spread the shared value created among farmers and consumers.

description: This paper investigates the current research on how consumers select the foods they buy and how they define ‘quality’. Consumer decisions are complex and whilst a few consumers prioritise local above all other factors when selecting food, for most local is simply one of multiple factors which influence the food choices they make. Short Food Chains are not necessarily local but are based on supply chains with fewer steps in the chain from producer to consumer. Short Food Chains ensure that more of the value of the food is returned to producers and allows consumers to have a more direct connection to where and how their food was produced. Short Food Chains tend to exhibit features which consumers increasingly value, whether these be traceability and provenance, organic, familiarity, tradition or a connection to a specific place and culture. These strengths of Short Food Chains suggest that there is real potential to see major growth in this sector in the coming decade. As Kotler observed, you have to sell to the pocket, the heart and the soul and, in the food sector, embracing Short Food Chains can help producers to do this.

description: We propose uncertainty relations for the different coordinates of spacetime events, motivated by Heisenberg's principle and by Einstein's theory of classical gravity. A model of Quantum Spacetime is then discussed where the commutation relations exactly implement our uncertainty relations. We outline the definition of free fields and interactions over QST and take the first steps to adapting the usual perturbation theory. The quantum nature of the underlying spacetime replaces a local interaction by a specific nonlocal effective interaction in the ordinary Minkowski space. A detailed study of interacting QFT and of the smoothing of ultraviolet divergences is deferred to a subsequent paper. In the classical limit where the Planck length goes to zero, our Quantum Spacetime reduces to the ordinary Minkowski space times a two component space whose components are homeomorphic to the tangent bundle TS^2 of the 2-sphere. The relations with Connes' theory of the standard model will be studied elsewhere.

description: Allying high-resolution with a large field-of-view (FOV) is of great importance in the fields of biology and medicine, but particularly challenging when imaging non-flat living samples such as the human retina. Indeed, high-resolution is normally achieved with adaptive optics (AO) and scanning methods, which considerably reduce the useful FOV and increase the system complexity. An alternative technique is time-domain Full-Field Optical Coherence Tomography (FF-OCT), which has already shown its potential for in-vivo high-resolution retinal imaging. Here, we introduce curved-field FF-OCT, capable of matching the coherence gate geometry to the sample curvature, thus achieving a larger FOV than previously possible. Using this instrument, we obtained high-resolution images of living human photoreceptors close to the foveal center without AO and with a 1 mm x 1 mm FOV in a single shot. This novel advance enables the extraction of photoreceptor-based biomarkers with ease and spatiotemporal monitoring of individual photoreceptors. We compare our findings with AO-assisted ophthalmoscopes, highlighting the potential of FF-OCT, as a relatively simple, compact and low-cost system, to become a routine clinical imaging technique.

description: Abstract An implementation of the crystal plasticity theory in the context of the multiphase-field method provides a numerically efficient tracking of evolving grain boundaries, modeled as diffuse interfaces. In literature, several approaches exist for the implementation of the plastic material behavior within the diffuse interface, based on interpolation, homogenization, or the mechanical jump conditions. Among these, only the jump condition approach exhibits an intrinsic relationship to the sharp interface (SI) theory. Therefore, in the work at hand, the implementation of the crystal plasticity theory within the jump condition approach, referred to as phase-specific plastic fields approach (PSPFA), is discussed in detail. The PSPFA is compared to the interpolation approach, referred to as common plastic fields approach (CPFA), using three-dimensional benchmark simulations of a bicrystal set-up. The comparison reveals that the PSPFA and SI coincide convincingly regarding the accumulated plastic slip and the Mises stress. In contrast, a significant deviation of CPFA and SI is observed both quantitatively and qualitatively, not only within the diffuse interface region, but throughout the complete simulation domain. A variation of the interface width illustrates that this observation can be transferred to the normal components of the total strain, even for smaller interface widths. Consequently, a quantitative estimate of the plastic material behavior, which is crucial for the prediction of the dynamic behavior of grain boundaries, is only provided by the PSPFA. The application of the crystal plasticity in the context of PSPFA to more complex microstructures is illustrated with respect to a periodic honeycomb-structure and an octotuple.
A Self-powered Analog Sensor-data-logging Device based on Fowler-Nordheim Dynamical Systems

description: Continuous, battery-free operation of sensor nodes requires ultra-low-power sensing and data-logging techniques. Here we report that by directly coupling a sensor/transducer signal into globally asymptotically stable monotonic dynamical systems based on Fowler-Nordheim quantum tunneling, one can achieve self-powered sensing at an energy budget that is currently unachievable using conventional energy harvesting methods. The proposed device uses a differential architecture to compensate for environmental variations and the device can retain sensed information for durations ranging from hours to days. With a theoretical operating energy budget less than 10 attojoules, we demonstrate that when integrated with a miniature piezoelectric transducer the proposed sensor-data-logger can measure cumulative "action" due to ambient mechanical acceleration without any additional external power.

Off-Shell Interactions for Closed-String Tachyons

description: Off-shell interactions for localized closed-string tachyons in C/Z_N superstring backgrounds are analyzed and a conjecture for the effective height of the tachyon potential is elaborated. At large N, some of the relevant tachyons are nearly massless and their interactions can be deduced from the S-matrix. The cubic interactions between these tachyons and the massless fields are computed in a closed form using orbifold CFT techniques. The cubic interaction between nearly-massless tachyons with different charges is shown to vanish and thus condensation of one tachyon does not source the others. It is shown that to leading order in N, the quartic contact interaction vanishes and the massless exchanges completely account for the four point scattering amplitude. This indicates that it is necessary to go beyond quartic interactions or to include other fields to test the conjecture for the height of the tachyon potential.

description: We report on a detailed spectral characterization of the non-thermal X-ray emission for a large sample of gamma-ray pulsars in the second Fermi-LAT catalogue. We outline the criteria adopted for the selection of our sample, its completeness, and critically describe different approaches to estimate the spectral shape and flux of pulsars. We perform a systematic modelling of the pulsars' X-ray spectra using archival observations with XMM-Newton, Chandra, and NuSTAR and extract the corresponding non-thermal X-ray spectral distributions. This set of data is made available online and is useful to confront with predictions of theoretical models.

description: The photon analyzing power for the photodisintegration of the deuteron was measured for seven gamma-ray energies between 2.39 and 4.05 MeV using the linearly polarized gamma-ray beam of the High-Intensity Gamma-ray Source at the Duke Free-Electron Laser Laboratory. The data provide a stringent test of theoretical calculations for the inverse reaction, the neutron-proton radiative capture reaction at energies important for Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis. Our data are in excellent agreement with potential model and effective field theory calculations. Therefore, the uncertainty in the baryon density obtained from Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis can be reduced at least by 20%.

description: Emerging wireless technologies, such as 5G and beyond, are bringing new use cases to the forefront, one of the most prominent being machine learning empowered health care. One of the notable modern medical concerns that impose an immense worldwide health burden are respiratory infections. Since cough is an essential symptom of many respiratory infections, an automated system to screen for respiratory diseases based on raw cough data would have a multitude of beneficial research and medical applications. In literature, machine learning has already been successfully used to detect cough events in controlled environments. In this paper, we present a low complexity, automated recognition and diagnostic tool for screening respiratory infections that utilizes Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to detect cough within environment audio and diagnose three potential illnesses (i.e., bronchitis, bronchiolitis and pertussis) based on their unique cough audio features. Both proposed detection and diagnosis models achieve an accuracy of over 89%, while also remaining computationally efficient. Results show that the proposed system is successfully able to detect and separate cough events from background noise. Moreover, the proposed single diagnosis model is capable of distinguishing between different illnesses without the need of separate models.
