description: This paper presents an accurate machining feedrate prediction technique by modeling the trajectory generation behaviour of modern CNC machine tools. Typically, CAM systems simulate machines motion based on the commanded feedrate and the path geometry. Such approach does not consider the feed planning and interpolation strategy of the machines numerical control (NC) system. In this study, trajectory generation behaviour of the NC system is modelled and accurate cycle time prediction for complex machining toolpaths is realized. NC systems linear interpolation dynamics and commanded axis kinematic profiles are predicted by using Finite Impulse Response (FIR) based low-pass filters. The corner blending behaviour during nonstop interpolation of linear segments is modeled, and for the first time, the minimum cornering feedrate, that satisfies both the tolerance and machining constraints, has been calculated analytically for 3 axis toolpaths of any geometry. The proposed method is applied to 4 different case studies including complex machining tool-paths. Experimental validations show actual cycle times can be estimated with greater than 90 percent accuracy, greatly outperforming CAM-based predictions. It is expected that the proposed approach will help improve the accuracy of virtual machining models and support businesses decision making when costing machining processes.

description: We construct the low energy theory of a doped Mott insulator, such as the high-temperature superconductors, by explicitly integrating over the degrees of freedom far away from the chemical potential. For either hole or electron doping, a charge 2e bosonic field emerges at low energy. The charge 2e boson mediates dynamical spectral weight transfer across the Mott gap and creates a new charge e excitation by binding a hole. The result is a bifurcation of the electron dispersion below the chemical potential as observed recently in angle-resolved photoemission on Pb-doped Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+δ} (Pb2212).

As Time Goes By: Car Radio and the Travel Experience in Twentieth-Century America
Creators: name: Messbauer, Sarah
Publisher: name: Current Musicology
Year: 2017

description: Since its invention nearly a century ago, the car radio has found its way into over ninety-five percent of vehicles on the road. Modern day radio programming is tailored to suit a mobile audience, and many listeners view car radios as an essential part of the driving experience. Yet within the scope of scholarly studies on this subject, the questions addressed are so focused on the mechanical problems of how radios were integrated into automobiles that there is substantially less research examining why radios were first imported into the car. What was the inspiration for such a combination? And how did it affect the travel experience for car users? Expanding upon current scholarship related to mobile sound technologies and their influence on the experience of mechanized travel, I argue that the conditions individually brought about by the radio and the automobile mutually reinforced one another: both worked together to alter the perceived passage of time and space for their users. Given that these developments directly reflect similar shifts in the perception of space and time occurring with the invention of older travel technologies such as the railroad half a century earlier, the application of radio to the car can be understood as just one more manifestation of the new spatiotemporal paradigm gripping the post-industrial West in the first half of the twentieth century.

description: Conversion of temporal to spatial correlations in the cortex is one of the most intriguing functions in the brain. The learning at synapses triggering the correlation conversion can take place in a wide integration window, whose influence on the correlation conversion remains elusive. Here, we propose a generalized associative memory model with arbitrary Hebbian length. The model can be analytically solved, and predicts that a small Hebbian length can already significantly enhance the correlation conversion, i.e., the stimulus-induced attractor can be highly correlated with a significant number of patterns in the stored sequence, thereby facilitating state transitions in the neural representation space. Moreover, an anti-Hebbian component is able to reshape the energy landscape of memories, akin to the function of sleep. Our work thus establishes the fundamental connection between associative memory, Hebbian length, and correlation conversion in the brain.

Energy-momentum tensor of a Casimir apparatus in a weak gravitational field: scalar case

description: Recent work in the literature had evaluated the energy-momentum tensor of a Casimir apparatus in a weak gravitational field, for an electromagnetic field subject to perfect conductor boundary conditions on parallel plates. The Casimir apparatus was then predicted to experience a tiny push in the upwards direction, and the regularized energy-momentum tensor was found to have a trace anomaly. The latter, unexpected property made it compelling to assess what happens in a simpler case. For this purpose, the present paper studies a free, real massless scalar field subject to homogeneous Dirichlet conditions on the parallel plates. Working to first order in the constant gravity acceleration, the resulting regularized and renormalized energy-momentum tensor is found to be covariantly conserved, while the trace anomaly vanishes if the massless scalar field is conformally coupled to gravity. Conformal coupling also ensures a finite Casimir energy and finite values of the pressure upon parallel plates.

Opera at Columbia: A Shining Legacy
Creators: name: Griffel, Margaret Ross
Publisher: name: Current Musicology
Year: 2005

description: Opera has always been central to my life. Listening to the Saturday afternoon broadcasts from the Metropolitan Opera was a ritual in my parents’ home, and we talked about our visits to the Met (albeit in the “nosebleed” seats) for weeks afterward. My love for opera was further nourished by my years at New York City’s High School of Music and Art, then some twenty blocks north of Columbia University, during which time Handel oratorios were semistaged at the school’s major concerts and Aaron Copland’s The Second Hurricane (1937) was revived at Carnegie Hall in a 1960 performance by M&A students conducted by Leonard Bernstein. In the 1960s, it was my good fortune to attend Barnard College and then do graduate studies in musicology at Columbia, where chances to hear contemporary as well as older operas abounded and opera composers such as Douglas Moore, Otto Luening, Henry Cowell, and Jack Beeson were members of the faculty. Sadly, such opportunities diminished in the following decades, breaking Columbia’s tradition of being a major source for the creation and performance of operas, which had reached its height in the 1940s and 1950s-the heyday of the Columbia Opera Workshop. After a brief history of the Workshop, the present article examines what it was like to be an opera -loving student at Columbia in the mid -1960s when Current Musicology was launched. Surrounded by the prominent composers mentioned above and other former participants of the Workshop who still taught courses in the Department of Music, including Willard Rhodes and Howard Shanet, we students had the chance to hear new and rarely performed works on campus or at nearby music conservatories and opera houses. In addition, this essay explores the contributions of Columbia graduates, particularly composers, to the world of opera. The article’s final two sections detail the operas given at various Columbia locations from 1941 to 2004. The first lists operas presented by the Music Department and the Workshop. It also includes those operas that were put on independently during the same period at venues such as McMillin Theatre (later renamed Miller Theatre), Barnard College’s Minor Latham Playhouse, and Brooks Hall, which featured Mozart operas in honor of his bicentennial year of 1956. The second section describes operas that were given at various Columbia locations after the Workshop closed.

description: Although the Internet AS-level topology has been extensively studied over the past few years, little is known about the details of the AS taxonomy. An AS "node" can represent a wide variety of organizations, e.g., large ISP, or small private business, university, with vastly different network characteristics, external connectivity patterns, network growth tendencies, and other properties that we can hardly neglect while working on veracious Internet representations in simulation environments. In this paper, we introduce a radically new approach based on machine learning techniques to map all the ASes in the Internet into a natural AS taxonomy. We successfully classify 95.3% of ASes with expected accuracy of 78.1%. We release to the community the AS-level topology dataset augmented with: 1) the AS taxonomy information and 2) the set of AS attributes we used to classify ASes. We believe that this dataset will serve as an invaluable addition to further understanding of the structure and evolution of the Internet.
Renormalization-group analysis of the validity of staggered-fermion QCD with the fourth-root recipe

description: I develop a renormalization-group blocking framework for lattice QCD with staggered fermions. Under plausible, and testable, assumptions, I then argue that the fourth-root recipe used in numerical simulations is valid in the continuum limit. The taste-symmetry violating terms, which give rise to non-local effects in the fourth-root theory when the lattice spacing is non-zero, vanish in the continuum limit. A key role is played by reweighted theories that are local and renormalizable on the one hand, and that approximate the fourth-root theory better and better as the continuum limit is approached on the other hand.

description: A method is developed to estimate the properties of a global hydrodynamic instability in turbulent flows from measurement data of the limit-cycle oscillations. For this purpose, the flow dynamics is separated into deterministic contributions representing the global mode and a stochastic contribution representing the intrinsic turbulent forcing. Stochastic models are developed that account for the interaction between the two and allow the determination of the dynamic properties of the flow from stationary data. The deterministic contributions are modelled by an amplitude equation, which describes the oscillatory dynamics of the instability, and in a second approach by a mean-field model, which additionally captures the interaction between the instability and the mean-flow corrections. The stochastic contributions are considered as coloured noise forcing, representing the spectral characteristics of the stochastic turbulent perturbations. The methodology is applied to a turbulent swirling jet with a dominant global mode. Particle image velocimetry measurements are conducted to ensure that the mode is the most dominant coherent structure, and further pressure measurements provide long time series for the model calibration. The supercritical Hopf bifurcation is identified from the linear growth rate of the global mode, and the excellent agreement between measured and estimated statistics suggest that the model captures the relevant dynamics. This work demonstrates that the sole observation of limit-cycle oscillations is not sufficient to determine the stability of turbulent flows, since the stochastic perturbations obscure the actual bifurcation point. However, the proposed separation of deterministic and stochastic contributions in the dynamical model allows the identification of the flow state from stationary measurements.

description: Magnons enable transferring a magnetic moment or spin over macroscopic distance. In quantum Hall ferromagnet, it has been predicted in the early 90s that spin and charges are entangled, meaning that any change of the spin texture modifies the charge distribution. As a direct consequence of this entanglement, magnons carry an electric dipole moment. Here we report the first evidence of the existence of this electric dipole moment in a graphene quantum Hall ferromagnet using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer as a quantum sensor. By propagating towards the interferometer through an insulating bulk, the magnon electric dipole moment modifies the Aharonov-Bohm flux through the interferometer, changing both its phase and its visibility. In particular, we relate the phase shift to the sign of this electric dipole moment, and the exponential loss of visibility to the flux of emitted magnons. Finally, we probe the emission energy threshold of the magnons close to filling factor v=1. Approaching v=0, we observe that the emission energy threshold diminishes towards zero, which might be linked to the existence of gapless mode in the canted-antiferromagnetic (CAF) phase at v=0. The detection and manipulation of magnons based on their electric dipole open the field for a new type of coherent magnon quantum circuits that will be electrostatically controlled.

Curious Intersections, Uncommon Magic: Steve Reich’s It’s Gonna Rain
Creators: name: Scherzinger, Martin
Publisher: name: Current Musicology
Year: 2005

description: 1965 was a watershed year in the life of Steve Reich. Following numerous experiments with magnetic tape, he had, while creating his tape piece It’s Gonna Rain, identified a fascinating process that would serve as the basic compositional tool of his output until about 1971, and as a foundational component of his output thereafter. Reich’s preoccupation with processoriented music in turn helped define a musical trend that shifted the standard historical narrative of twentieth -century concert music away from the reigning high modernist serialism of the 1950s toward minimalism. Defenders of the new style emphasize the cultural triumph of minimalism. For Susan McClary, minimalism is “perhaps the single most viable extant strand of the Western art-music tradition;” for K. Robert Schwarz, a specialist in this style, minimalism is “a potent force … its influence is pervasive and enduring;” and for the composer John Adams, minimalism is “the only really interesting, important stylistic development in the past 30 years” (McClary 2004:289-98; Schwarz 1997:1-17; Adams quoted in Schwarz 1996a:177). These writers often attend to minimalism’s programmatic reaction to the perceived structural complexities of high modernism with its ametric rhythms and pervasive intervallic dissonances. In contrast to high modernism, minimalism offered musical structures dearly audible to the listener; its rhythms were pulse-based, often elaborated in the context of extended repetition of short musical figures, and its pitch structures were simple, usually associated with, though not identical to, traditional diatonic constellations. Commentators may differ on the relationship minimalism takes to modernism-McClary argues in terms of a qualified Oedipal “reaction formation” to modernism; Wim Mertens argues in terms of a negative dialectical “final stage” of high modernism-but few commentators fail to situate high modernism as the central referent in describing the emergence of minimalism in music (McClary 2004:292; Mertens 2004:308). Whether the argument hinges on a theory of history beholden to Freud or one beholden to Hegel, modernism under these readings remains minimalism’s basic condition of possibility.

description: Recent advances in the fabrication and experimentation of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) have motivated the concept of the smart radio environment, according to which the propagation of information-bearing waveforms in the wireless medium is amenable to programmability. Although the vast majority of recent experimental research on RIS-empowered wireless communications gravitates around narrowband beamforming in quasi-free space, RISs are foreseen to revolutionize wideband wireless connectivity in dense urban as well as indoor scenarios, which are usually characterized as strongly reverberant environments exhibiting severe multipath conditions. In this article, capitalizing on recent physics-driven experimental explorations of RIS-empowered wave propagation control in complex scattering cavities, we identify the potential of the spatiotemporal control offered by RISs to boost wireless communications in rich scattering channels via two case studies. First, an RIS is deployed to shape the multipath channel impulse response, which is shown to enable higher achievable communication rates. Second, the RIS-tunable propagation environment is leveraged as an analog multiplexer to localize non-cooperative objects using wave fingerprints, even when they are outside the line of sight. Future research challenges and opportunities in the algorithmic design and experimentation of smart rich scattering wireless environments enabled by RISs for sixth Generation (6G) wireless communications are discussed.

description: The formation of a deeply-bound $K^-pp$ state by the $^3$He(in-flight $K^-$,$n$) reaction is investigated theoretically in the distorted-wave impulse approximation using the Green's function method. The expected inclusive and semi-exclusive spectra at $p_{K^-}$ = 1.0 GeV/c and $θ_n = 0^{\circ}$ are calculated for the forthcoming J-PARC E15 experiment. We employ optical potentials between the $K^-$ and ``$pp$'' core-nucleus, and demonstrate systematically the dependence of the spectral shape on $V_0$ and $W_0$, which are the real and imaginary parts of the strength for the optical potential, respectively. The necessary condition to observe a distinct peak of the $K^-pp$ bound state with $I=1/2$, $J^π=0^-$ in the spectrum turns out to be that the value of $V_0$ is deeper than $\sim-100$ MeV and $W_0$ shallower than $\sim-100$ MeV, of which the strength parameters come up to recent theoretical predictions.

Sanp : a communication level protocol for supporting machine-to-machine negotiation in organization
Creators: name: Chang, Man Kit
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Organizations are distributed systems where agents (workers, departments, etc.) cooperate with one another to achieve organizational goals. However, conflict is also an inherent component of the process. In designing computer systems which aim to automate organizational activities, we need to consider the conflicts among agents and how they can be resolved. Distributed Artificial Intelligent (DAI) researchers have long been interested in the question of how to resolve conflicts among cooperative agents in distributed problem solving environments. Negotiation has been suggested by many researchers as an important technique to resolve conflicts. However, most of the existing negotiation protocols used in DAI systems are inflexible. Actual protocols rarely take into account the results from negotiation research. In this paper, we propose a negotiation protocol, SANP (Speech Act based Negotiation Protocol), that is based on Ballmer and Brennenstuhl's speech act classification, and on the negotiation analysis literature from other disciplines. SANP is a flexible protocol that supports multi-level negotiations between two parties. In addition, SANP also allows third party arbitration if the parties involved in the negotiation cannot resolve the conflict themselves. The protocol is implemented as a domain independent system using Strudel which is an electronic mail toolkit for managing electronic mail based conversations. A small study was conducted to test the protocol. A number of limitations of the protocol have been found in this study. Suggestions on how to improve the protocol are also discussed in this thesis.

Hearing Emerson, Lake, and Palmer Anew: Progressive Rock as “Music of Attractions”
Creators: name: Hung, Eric
Publisher: name: Current Musicology
Year: 2005

description: Progressive rock is a loose label for music that combines some of the basic ingredients of early rock ‘n’ roll and elements of genres that are generally considered more prestigious, such as Western art music, jazz, and Indian classical music. After emerging in the late 1960s, progressive rock reached its peak in popularity in the early 1970s. Since the rise of punk in the mid 1970s, the genre has retreated to the college circuit, select clubs, and fringe festivals. Over the past quarter century, there have been two common stances on progressive rock. One builds upon rock critics’ longstanding and overwhelmingly negative view of the genre. For most critics, such as Dave Marsh and Lester Bangs, the most important element of rock is the rather ambiguous concept of “authenticity.” Theoretically, “authenticity” is connected with genuineness. A song is “authentic” when it is written (or at least arranged) by the performing musicians, and is about their lives and emotions. Although songwriting credits are easily conveyed, this notion of authenticity is not particularly useful in criticism. After all, how would a critic know whether or not the feelings expressed in a song are genuine? In practice, many critics track authenticity with more obvious qualities: a sense of rebelliousness, the inclusion of blues elements such as blues progressions and extended vocal melismas, and subtle inflections of the beat. Given these criteria, the negative critical reception of progressive rock-exemplified by the strongly worded Lester Bangs quote above-is hardly surprising. After all, progressive rock musicians diluted the influence of blues in rock music by incorporating elements of many other genres. They also took away the sexuality and rebelliousness often heard in rock’s hard-driving beat, replacing it with complex meters that are not suited to dancing.

description: Associative memory is a fundamental function in the brain. Here, we generalize the standard associative memory model to include long-range Hebbian interactions at the learning stage, corresponding to a large synaptic integration window. In our model, the Hebbian length can be arbitrarily large. The spectral density of the coupling matrix is derived using the replica method, which is also shown to be consistent with the results obtained by applying the free probability method. The maximal eigenvalue is then obtained by an iterative equation, related to the paramagnetic to spin glass transition in the model. Altogether, this work establishes the connection between the associative memory with arbitrary Hebbian length and the asymptotic eigen-spectrum of the neural-coupling matrix.

A gene fusion of Cex from Cellulomonas fimi and CbhI from Trichoderma reesei
Creators: name: Driver, Diane Patricia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The proteins Cex from C. fimi and CbhI from T. reesei are exo-glucanases which are composed of separate catalytic and cellulose binding domains. When separated from one another by treatment with a protease, these domains retain their specific functions. Using polymerase chain reaction, a gene fusion was constructed which encodes a polypeptide containing the catalytic domain of Cex and the cellulose binding domain of Cbhl. During DNA sequencing of the fusion clones, an error was detected in the published Cbhl DNA sequence (Shoemaker et al. 1983b). The corrected sequence codes for two prolines, as Fagerstam (1981) determined during his earlier amino acid sequencing of Cbhl. This fusion protein, expressed in E. coli, was active on the substrates p-nitrophenyl-β-D-cellobioside, p-nitrophenyl-β-D-lactoside, carboxymethyl cellulose and xylan, as is Cex, and was able to bind to microcrystalline cellulose but not to chitin. It can be eluted from cellulose with 8M guanidine-HC1. The fusion protein was found in the culture supernatant of E. coli cultures and presumably leaks from the periplasm in the same manner as Cex (Guo et al. 1988). Adsorption assays were conducted for the Cex/Cbhl fusion on bacterial microcrystalline cellulose (BMCC).

description: Recently, there have been clinical reports of hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBVr) related with Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. However, there were no studies to investigate the association between HBVr and different JAK inhibitors. This study was a retrospective review utilizing the FAERS pharmacovigilance database and a systematic literature search for all cases of HBVr reported with JAK inhibitors. Disproportionality analysis and Bayesian analysis were used in data detection to screen the suspected HBVr after the administration of different JAK inhibitors, based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) pharmacovigilance database from Q4 2011 to Q1 2022. There were a total number of 2097 (0.02%) reports of HBVr in FAERS, of which 41 (1.96%) were associated with JAK inhibitors. Baricitinib appeared to have the strongest signal among four JAK inhibitors, based on the highest reporting odds ratio (ROR = 4.45, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.67–11.89). Ruxolitinib also showed signals, whereas no signals were detected among Tofacitinib and Upadacitinib. While there may be an association between JAK inhibitors and HBVr, it appears to be a numerically uncommon occurrence. Further studies are needed to optimize the safety profiles of JAK inhibitors.
In Praise of Eclecticism: Relational Thinking and Theoretical Assemblage
Creators: name: Monson, Ingrid
Publisher: name: Current Musicology
Year: 2018

description: In this essay I trace a path through the intellectual history of the last thirty-five years by using the idea of relationality to connect widely different theoretical frameworks that have been used in the fields of ethnomusicology and musicology. These perspectives are all part of a generalized move away from the fixity of structuralism and towards more contingent, dynamic, and anti-foundationalist modes of understanding power, identity, embodiment, technology, and the sensory. Although philosophical perspectives must be addressed, I am fundamentally more interested in exploring the application of these ideas to empirical work—historical and ethnographic. To this end I sing in praise of theoretical eclecticism: the practice of selecting the most productive ideas from philosophy, social theory, and other fields, according to how well they can illuminate and frame an empirical project. To borrow a concept from a recently fashionable philosopher, I suggest that creating theoretical assemblages with clear points of connection to the principle topic of research might serve us well. Deleuze famously advocated for a rhizomatic rather than arborescent understanding of interconnection: “unlike trees or their roots, the rhizome connects any point to any other point, and its traits are not necessarily linked to traits of the same nature; it brings into play very different regimes of signs, and even nonsign states” (Deleuze and Guattari 1987, 21). Or more pithily: “We’re tired of trees. We should stop believing in trees, roots, and radicles. They’ve made us suffer too much” (15). Assemblages, for Deleuze and Guattari, are non-hierarchical consistencies that develop among these connections and they may link different strata. After tracing an outline of the legacy of relational thinking I will show how and why I have applied an anthropological assemblage theory of ethics and morality to my work on Malian balafonist Neba Solo in conjunction with older social and cultural theories. This essay also addresses the limits of Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of assemblage, and philosophical perspectives more generally, as resources for socially engaged empirical musical studies. The need to engage issues of power, inequality, diversity and gender inequality, I argue, requires engagement with the social sciences, such as sociology, anthropology, and economics. Emphasis on these social theoretical resources encapsulates one historical difference between musicology and ethnomusicology in terms of relational thinking.

description: We present a very fast implementation of the Butler-Portugal algorithm for index canonicalization with respect to permutation symmetries. It is called xPerm, and has been written as a combination of a Mathematica package and a C subroutine. The latter performs the most demanding parts of the computations and can be linked from any other program or computer algebra system. We demonstrate with tests and timings the effectively polynomial performance of the Butler-Portugal algorithm with respect to the number of indices, though we also show a case in which it is exponential. Our implementation handles generic tensorial expressions with several dozen indices in hundredths of a second, or one hundred indices in a few seconds, clearly outperforming all other current canonicalizers. The code has been already under intensive testing for several years and has been essential in recent investigations in large-scale tensor computer algebra.

description: 2D image representations are in regular grids and can be processed efficiently, whereas 3D point clouds are unordered and scattered in 3D space. The information inside these two visual domains is well complementary, e.g., 2D images have fine-grained texture while 3D point clouds contain plentiful geometry information. However, most current visual recognition systems process them individually. In this paper, we present a \emph{bidirectional projection network (BPNet)} for joint 2D and 3D reasoning in an end-to-end manner. It contains 2D and 3D sub-networks with symmetric architectures, that are connected by our proposed \emph{bidirectional projection module (BPM)}. Via the \emph{BPM}, complementary 2D and 3D information can interact with each other in multiple architectural levels, such that advantages in these two visual domains can be combined for better scene recognition. Extensive quantitative and qualitative experimental evaluations show that joint reasoning over 2D and 3D visual domains can benefit both 2D and 3D scene understanding simultaneously. Our \emph{BPNet} achieves top performance on the ScanNetV2 benchmark for both 2D and 3D semantic segmentation. Code is available at \url{https://github.com/wbhu/BPNet}.

Review of Walter Frisch. 2005. German Modernism: Music and the Arts. Berkeley and Los Angeles: University of California Press
Creators: name: Painter, Karen
Publisher: name: Current Musicology
Year: 2005

description: Long admired for judicious analysis steeped in history, from Schoenbergian Brahms to Brahmsian Schoenberg, Walter Frisch, in German Modernism: Music and the Arts, topples a historiography in place for at least sixty years. Chapters on ”Ambivalent Modernism” (Parsifal) and “Regressive Modernism” (Pfitzner’s Palestrina) serve as bookends. Reger receives twenty-three pages, Schoenberg four-and those four on the works in a performance that set Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc aglow. The book traverses a half-century of early modernism, as Frisch occasionally specifies, from 1870 to 1920. If the book’s title overreaches, laying claim to the entire sweep of German modernism, one need only recall that at the time, the music of Wagner and Strauss, Mahler and Schreker, sparked debates over “modern” music, whereas Schoenberg, Webern, and Berg fell by the wayside, receiving scant notice in the annals of history and more scorn than recognition from critics. All this would change, but only after World War I, when musical life became politicized and polarized, each camp with its own advocates. Frisch has a different story, and one worth telling.

description: We investigate theoretically a mechanically assisted Kondo effect and electric charge shuttling in nanoelectromechanical single-electron transistor (NEM-SET). It is shown that the mechanical motion of the central island (a small metallic particle) with the spin results in the time dependent tunneling width which leads to effective increase of the Kondo temperature. The time-dependent oscillating Kondo temperature T_K(t) changes the scaling behavior of the differential conductance resulting in the suppression of transport in a strong coupling- and its enhancement in a weak coupling regimes. The conditions for fine-tuning of the Abrikosov-Suhl resonance and possible experimental realization of the Kondo shuttling are discussed.

description: Non-Abelian excitations are an interesting feature of many fractional quantum Hall phases, including those phases described by the Moore-Read (or Pfaffian) wave function. However, the detection of the non-Abelian quasiparticles is challenging. Here, we consider a system described by the Moore-Read wave function, and assume that impurity particles bind to its quasiholes. Then, the angular momentum of the impurities, reflected also by the impurity density, provides a useful witness of the physics of the non-Abelian excitations. By demanding that the impurities are constrained to the lowest Landau level, we are able to write down the corresponding many-body wave function describing both the Moore-Read liquid and the impurities. Through Monte Carlo sampling we determine the impurity angular momentum, and we show that it suggests a quantum-statistical parameter $α= aν-b +P/2$ for the quasiholes, where $α$ ranges from $0$ for bosons to $1$ for fermions. A reasonable agreement with the Monte Carlo results is obtained for $a=1/4$, $b=1/8$ and $P=0,1$ depending on the parity of the particle number in the Moore-Read liquid. This parity-dependence of the angular momentum serves as an unambiguous demonstration of the non-Abelian nature of the excitations. In addition to the studies of excitations in the Moore-Read liquid, we also apply our scheme to Laughlin liquids, for which we focus on interacting bosonic impurities. With this, the impurities themselves form Laughlin states, which allows for a study of hierarchical fractional quantum Hall states.
