description: Recently there has been much interest in light dark matter, especially ultra-light axions, as they may provide a solution to the core-cusp problem at the center of galaxies. Since very light bosons can have a de Broglie wavelength that is of astrophysical size, they can smooth out the centers of galaxies to produce a core, as opposed to vanilla dark matter models, and so it has been suggested that this solves the core-cusp problem. In this work, we critically examine this claim. While an ultra-light particle will indeed lead to a core, we examine whether the relationship between the density of the core and its radius matches the data over a range of galaxies. We first review data that shows the core density of a galaxy $ρ_c$ varies as a function of the core radius $R_c$ as $ρ_c\propto1/R_c^β$ with $β\approx1$. We then compare this to theoretical models. We examine a large class of light scalar dark matter models, governed by some potential $V$. For simplicity, we take the scalar to be complex with a global $U(1)$ symmetry in order to readily organize solutions by a conserved particle number. However, we expect our central conclusions to persist even for a real scalar, and furthermore, a complex scalar matches the behavior of a real scalar in the non-relativistic limit, which is the standard regime of interest. For any potential $V$, we find the relationship between $ρ_c$ and $R_c$ for ground state solutions is always in one of the following regimes: (i) $β\gg1$, or (ii) $β\ll1$, or (iii) unstable, and so it never matches the data. We also find similar conclusions for virialized dark matter, more general scalar field theories, degenerate fermion dark matter, superfluid dark matter, and general polytropes. We conclude that the solution to the core-cusp problem is more likely due to either complicated baryonic effects or some other type of dark matter interactions.

description: We studies the high energy elastic scattering of quark anti-quark with an exchange of a mesonic state in the $t$ channel with $-t/Λ^{2} \gg 1$. Both the normalization factor and the Regge trajectory can be calculated in PQCD in cases of fixed (non-running) and running coupling constant. The dependence of the Regge trajectory on the coupling constant is highly non-linear and the trajectory is of order of $0.2$ in the interesting physical range.

description: Many trial designs, such as dose-finding trials, shared-control designs, or adaptive platform trials, investigate multiple therapies simultaneously. Often these trials seek to identify the best arm and compare it to a control. Adaptive trials are commonly considered in this space, focusing on methods that drop arms or adjust allocation in response to accumulating information. These methods continue to be compared in the literature, most recently with an emphasis on the effect of time trends during the experiment. Here we compare several methods, considering their performance with and without time trends present. The four procedures are: (a) fixed allocation, (b) arm dropping based on p-values (two variants), (c) arm dropping based on the posterior probability each arm is best (two variants), and (d) response-adaptive randomization. These procedures are compared in terms of their ability to identify the best arm, statistical power, accuracy of estimation, and potential benefit to participants inside the trial. We find arm dropping based on the probability each arm is best and RAR among the best options from the methods considered. Arm dropping based on p-values performs moderately worse, and fixed allocation is much worse on all metrics within this context.

description: We investigate the dependence of magnetic properties on the post-annealing temperature/time, the thickness of soft ferromagnetic electrode and Ta dusting layer in the pinned electrode as well as their correlation with the tunnel magnetoresistance ratio, in a series of perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions of materials sequence Ta/Pd/IrMn/CoFe/Ta$(\textit{x})$/CoFeB/MgO$(\textit{y})$/CoFeB$(\textit{z})$/Ta/Pd. We obtain a large perpendicular exchange bias of 79.6$\,$kA/m for $x=0.3\,$nm. For stacks with $z=1.05\,$nm, the magnetic properties of the soft electrode resemble the characteristics of superparamagnetism. For stacks with $x=0.4\,$nm, $y=2\,$nm, and $z=1.20\,$nm, the exchange bias presents a significant decrease at post annealing temperature $T_\textrm{ann}=330\,^{\circ}$C for 60 min, while the interlayer exchange coupling and the saturation magnetization per unit area sharply decay at $T_\textrm{ann}=340\,^{\circ}$C for 60 min. Simultaneously, the tunnel magnetoresistance ratio shows a peak of $65.5\%$ after being annealed at $T_\textrm{ann}=300\,^{\circ}$C for 60 min, with a significant reduction down to $10\%$ for higher annealing temperatures ($T_\textrm{ann}\geq330\,^{\circ}$C) and down to $14\%$ for longer annealing times ($T_\textrm{ann}=300\,^{\circ}$C for 90 min). We attribute the large decrease of tunnel magnetoresistance ratio to the loss of exchange bias in the pinned electrode.

description: We introduce the MOdelling Star cluster population Assembly In Cosmological Simulations within EAGLE (E-MOSAICS) project. E-MOSAICS incorporates models describing the formation, evolution and disruption of star clusters into the EAGLE galaxy formation simulations, enabling the examination of the co-evolution of star clusters and their host galaxies in a fully cosmological context. A fraction of the star formation rate of dense gas is assumed to yield a cluster population; this fraction, and the population's initial properties, are governed by the physical properties of the natal gas. The subsequent evolution and disruption of the entire cluster population is followed accounting for two-body relaxation, stellar evolution, and gravitational shocks induced by the local tidal field. This introductory paper presents a detailed description of the model and initial results from a suite of 10 simulations of $\sim L^\star$ galaxies with disc-like morphologies at $z=0$. The simulations broadly reproduce key observed characteristics of young star clusters and globular clusters (GCs), without invoking separate formation mechanisms for each population. The simulated GCs are the surviving population of massive clusters formed at early epochs ($z\gtrsim1-2$), when the characteristic pressures and surface densities of star-forming gas were significantly higher than observed in local galaxies. We examine the influence of the star formation and assembly histories of galaxies on their cluster populations, finding that (at similar present-day mass) earlier-forming galaxies foster a more massive and disruption-resilient cluster population, while galaxies with late mergers are capable of forming massive clusters even at late cosmic epochs.

description: The compound IrTe2 is known to exhibit a transition to a modulated state featuring Ir-Ir dimers, with large associated atomic displacements. Partial substitution of Pt or Rh for Ir destabilizes the modulated structure and induces superconductivity. It has been proposed that quantum critical dimer fluctuations might be associated with the superconductivity. Here we test for such local dimer correlations and demonstrate their absence. X-ray pair distribution function approach reveals that the local structure of Ir0.95Pt0.05Te2 and Ir0.8Rh0.2Te2 dichalcogenide superconductors with compositions just past the dimer/superconductor boundary is explained well by a dimer-free model down to 10 K, ruling out the possibility of there being nanoscale dimer fluctuations in this regime. This is inconsistent with the proposed quantum-critical-point-like interplay of the dimer state and

description: "If it could be said of any union that its past had shown its ability to survive even the most improbable odds, it could certainly be said of the U E ", Ronald Fiiippelli noted in his extensive study of the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE), Cold War in the Working Class: The Rise and Decline of the United Electrical Workers. The United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE), formed in March of 1936, was to become the largest and most persistent rank-and-file union in US labor history.2 In a relatively short period of time, namely between 1936 and 1947, the UE became the third largest affiliate of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO). By 1947, it had collective bargaining rights in 1,536 plants employing 600,000 workers.3 This rise of the UE did not last long, however, as the left-wing tendencies of the union leaders and the rank-and-file formation of the union made it a prime target of red-baiting occurring in the late 1940's and 1950's. Although the opposition against the UE, both from the outside and within the union, became intense in 1947, opposition to the left-wing bias of UE can be traced to as early as 1945.
Soft heavy-ion physics from hydrodynamics with statistical hadronization - predictions for the Large Hadron Collider

description: Hydrodynamics merged with single-freeze-out statistical hadronization is used to describe the midrapidity hadron production in relativistic heavy-ion collisions at the highest RHIC energies and to make predictions for the LHC. Thermodynamic properties of the quark-gluon plasma are taken from lattice simulations, at low temperatures the hadron-gas equation of state is used, while in the cross-over region an interpolation between the two equations of state is constructed. The initial condition for hydrodynamics is obtained from a Glauber profile for the entropy, with the initial central temperature Ti. The conditions obtained from the hydrodynamic expansion at the freeze-out temperature Tf are used as input for the thermal event generator THERMINATOR. Basic physical observables are obtained: the transverse-momentum spectra, the elliptic flow coefficient v2, and the HBT radii. The femtoscopic observables are evaluated with the help of the two-particle method which accounts for the resonance decays and Coulomb final-state interactions. The problem of a simultaneous description of all discussed observables is addressed, with the conclusion that at the highest RHIC energies our approach gives a quite satisfactory global description of soft hadronic observables. Some discrepancies may be attributed to the absence of the final-state elastic interactions among hadrons. Extrapolating Ti to higher values allows for global predictions for soft hadronic physics at the LHC. We test Ti=400, 450, and 500 MeV, and observe the expected growth of particle multiplicities and the increase of the flow, resulting in smaller slopes of the pT-spectra. The elliptic flow of pions exhibits saturation, with v2 remaining practically constant, while the HBT radii increase moderately with Ti.

description: The eye offers a unique opportunity for non-invasive exploration of cardiovascular diseases. Optical angiography in the retina requires sensitive measurements, which hinders conventional full-field laser Doppler imaging schemes. To overcome this limitation, we used digital holography to perform laser Doppler perfusion imaging of the human retina in vivo with near-infrared light. Wideband measurements of the beat frequency spectrum of optical interferograms recorded with a 39 kHz CMOS camera are analyzed by short-time Fourier transformation. Power Doppler images and movies drawn from the zeroth moment of the power spectrum density reveal blood flows in retinal and choroidal vessels over 512 $\times$ 512 pixels covering 2.4 $\times$ 2.4 mm$^2$ on the retina with a 13 ms temporal resolution.

description: Public housing conjures up images of rows of brick structures, open windows, and children playing outside. The media often emphasize the slum image of public housing, but to many Pittsburgh residents this community is a way of life. Why would a person choose to raise a family in a cluster of houses connected so closely that neighbors can hear every argument or sound of laughter? For many local Blacks, public housing issues play a long, dark history in their past. Through racial tensions, corruption, and greed, many of these communities were created as a direct result of the careful manipulation of the Black population by government agencies. From the 1950s through the 1960s, Blacks were forced out of their homes and had little choice concerning where they could live; nor did they have the power to resist the pressures that made it difficult for them to move into private homes. Through processes like Redevelopment combined with factors like prejudice, the Black population in Pittsburgh was intentionally steered to live in public housing, condemned to a lifetime of communal living or—more accurately—segregation.

description: We explore the one-loop electroweak radiative corrections in the minimal $SU(5)$ and the no-scale flipped $SU(5)$ supergravity models via explicit calculation of vacuum polarization contributions to the $ε_{1,2,3}$ parameters. Experimentally, $ε_{1,2,3}$ are obtained from a global fit to the LEP observables, and $M_W/M_Z$ measurements. We include $q^2$-dependent effects which have been neglected in most previous ``model-independent" analyses of this type. These effects induce a large systematic negative shift on $ε_{1,2,3}$ for light chargino masses ($m_{χ^\pm_1}\lsim70\GeV$). In agreement with previous general arguments, we find that for increasingly large sparticle masses, the heavy sector of both models rapidly decouples, \ie, the values for $ε_{1,2,3}$ quickly asymptote to the Standard Model values with a {\it light} Higgs ($m_{H_{SM}}\sim100\GeV$). Specifically, at present the $90\%$ CL upper limit on the top-quark mass is $m_t\lsim175\GeV$ in the no-scale flipped $SU(5)$ supergravity model. These bounds can be strengthened for increasing chargino masses in the $50-100\GeV$ interval. In particular, for $m_t\gsim160\GeV$, the Tevatron may be able to probe through gluino($\tilde g$) and squark($\tilde q$) production up to $m_{\tilde g}\approx m_{\tilde q}\approx250\GeV$, exploring at least half of the parameter space in this model.

Finding binaries from phase modulation of pulsating stars with Kepler: V. Orbital parameters, with eccentricity and mass-ratio distributions of 341 new binaries

description: The orbital parameters of binaries at intermediate periods ($10^2$--$10^3$ d) are difficult to measure with conventional methods and are very incomplete. We have undertaken a new survey, applying our pulsation timing method to {\it Kepler} light curves of 2224 main-sequence A/F stars and found 341 non-eclipsing binaries. We calculate the orbital parameters for 317 PB1 systems (single-pulsator binaries) and 24 PB2s (double-pulsators). The method reaches down to small mass ratios $q=0.02$ and yields a highly homogeneous sample. We parametrize the mass-ratio distribution using both inversion and MCMC forward-modelling techniques, and find it to be skewed towards low-mass companions, peaking at $q=0.2$. While solar-type primaries show a brown dwarf desert across intermediate periods, we find a small but significant (2.6$σ$) population of extreme-mass-ratio companions ($q<0.1$) to our intermediate-mass primaries. Across periods of 100--1500 d and at $q>0.1$, we measure the binary fraction of current A/F primaries to be 15.4%$\pm$1.4%, though we find that a large fraction of the companions (21%$\pm$6%) are white dwarfs in post-mass-transfer systems with primaries that are now blue stragglers, some of which are the progenitors of Type Ia supernovae, barium stars, symbiotics, and related phenomena. Excluding these white dwarfs, we find the binary fraction of original A/F primaries to be 13.9%$\pm$2.1% over the same parameter space. Combining literature measurements with ours, we find the binary fraction across these periods is a constant 5% for primaries $M_1<0.8$ M$_{\odot}$, but then increases linearly with $\log M_1$, demonstrating that natal discs around more massive protostars $M_1>1$ M$_{\odot}$ become increasingly more prone to fragmentation. Finally, we find the eccentricity distribution of the main-sequence pairs to be much less eccentric than the thermal distribution.

description: Lung cancer is currently the most common malignancy and the leading cause of cancerrelated death worldwide. There are two main types: small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and nonsmall lung cancer (NSCLC). As revealed by recent genome-wide studies, individual lung tumors also possess highly diverse genomes, which further underscore the biological complexity of these diseases. Untangling the relationship between lung tumor histotype, phenotype and molecular heterogeneity represents a critical barrier in improving the clinical outcome of thoracic malignancies, which collectively account for most cancer-related deaths to date. Evidences from multiple tumour types and model systems implicate miRNA dysregulation as a common mechanism of tumorigenesis. Besides miRNAs are more stable than other biomarkers during sample processing, thus more suitable for analysis in tissue sample. Moreover, we have investigated whether the expression of a 3-miRNA panel could be a useful prognostic biomarker in lung cancer patients. The aims were the evaluation of the feasibility of miRNA extraction in cytological clinical (n= 50, SCLC) and surgical samples Squamous Cell Carcinoma (n=86; SCC) of lung, and the possible influence of the different types of fixative solution in the preservation of the integrity of miRNA. Moreover, we tried to identify a panel of miRNAs possibly useful in clinical practice as prognostic and /or predictive biomarkers. In SCLC, multivariate Cox analysis indicated that 3-miRNA panel was independently
associated with survival, and in the group of older patients could discriminate patients with better survival from patients with short survival.
In SCC Multivariate analysis indicated that in our cohort of patients with SCC, better OS and DSS are high expression levels of miR-192.
In conclusion, the results obtained by our studies support the possibility of the use of selected miRNAs as prognostic biomarkers in cytologic and histologic clinical samples of lung tumours.

description: We consider GLq(N)-covariant quantum algebras with generators satisfying quadratic polynomial relations. We show that, up to some inessential arbitrariness, there are only two kinds of such quantum algebras, namely, the algebras with q-deformed commutation and q-deformed anticommutation relations. The connection with the bicovariant differential calculus on the linear quantum groups is disscussed.

Flavor Symmetries and The Problem of Squark Degeneracy

description: If supersymmetry exists at low energies, it is necessary to understand why the squark spectrum exhibits sufficient degeneracy to suppress flavor changing neutral currents. In this note, we point out that gauged horizontal symmetries can yield realistic quark mass matrices, while at the same time giving just barely enough squark degeneracy to account for neutral $K$-meson phenomenology. This approach suggests likely patterns for squark masses, and indicates that there could be significant supersymmetric contributions to $B-\bar{B}$ and $D-\bar{D}$ mixing and CP violation in the $K$ and $B$ systems.

description: The behavior of light scalar dark matter has been a subject of much interest recently as it can lead to interesting small scale behavior. In particular, this can lead to the formation of gravitationally bound clumps for these light scalars, including axions. In Ref. [1] we analyzed the behavior of these clumps, assuming spherical symmetry, allowing for both attractive and repulsive self-interactions. There is a maximum allowed mass for the clumps in the case of attractive interactions, and a minimum radius for the clumps in the case of repulsive interactions, which is saturated at large mass. Here we extend this work to include non-spherically symmetric clumps. Since the system tries to re-organize into a BEC ground state, we consider configurations with a conserved non-zero angular momentum, and construct minimum energy configurations at fixed particle number and fixed angular momentum. We find generalizations of the previous spherically symmetric results. In particular, while there is still a maximum mass for the attractive case, its value increases with angular momentum. Also, the minimum radius in the repulsive case is raised to higher radii. We clarify how a recent claim in the literature of an upper bound on angular momentum is due to inaccurate numerics. In a forthcoming paper we shall investigate the possibility of resonance of axion clumps into both visible and hidden sector photons, and analyze how the altered mass and radius from non-zero angular momentum affects the resonance.

Efficient 2-designs from bases exist

Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that in a complex d-dimensional vector space, one can find O(d) bases whose elements form a 2-design. Such vector sets generalize the notion of a maximal collection of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs). MUBs have manifold applications in quantum information theory (e.g. in state tomography, cloning, or cryptography) -- however it is suspected that maximal sets exist only in prime-power dimensions. Our construction offers an efficient alternative for general dimensions. The findings are based on a framework recently established in [A. Roy and A. Scott, J. Math. Phys. 48, 072110 (2007)], which reduces the construction of such bases to the combinatorial problem of finding certain highly nonlinear functions between abelian groups.

description: We study the resolved radio-continuum spectral energy distribution of the dwarf irregular galaxy, NGC 1569, on a beam-by-beam basis to isolate and study its spatially resolved radio emission characteristics. Utilizing high quality NRAO Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) observations that densely sample the 1--34\,GHz frequency range, we adopt a Bayesian fitting procedure, where we use H$α$ emission that has not been corrected for extinction as a prior, to produce maps of how the separated thermal emission, non-thermal emission and non-thermal spectral index vary across NGC\,1569's main disk. We find a higher thermal fraction at 1\,GHz than is found in spiral galaxies ($26^{+2}_{-3}\%$) and find an average non-thermal spectral index $α= -0.53\pm0.02$, suggesting that a young population of cosmic ray electrons is responsible for the observed non--thermal emission. By comparing our recovered map of the thermal radio emission with literature H$α$ maps, we estimate the total reddening along the line of sight to NGC\,1569 to be $E(B-V) = 0.49 \pm 0.05$, which is in good agreement with other literature measurements. Spatial variations in the reddening indicate that a significant portion of the total reddening is due to internal extinction within NGC\,1569.

Rosie the Riveter Pittsburgh Style: The Representation and Experiences of Pittsburgh Working Women During the Second World War
Creators: name: Maynard, Katie
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: 130103 Higher Education
subject: FOS: Educational sciences

description: The advent of the second world war created a huge national demand for industrial products, munitions, and manpower. The draft removed men i from the workforce creating a gap that American women were called upon to fill. This situation was complex due to cultural ideology about women, the previous period of economic depression, and an immense need for workers. Government and industry leaders manipulated notions about gendered work in order to find a solution to the problem without creating social upheaval. In comparison to national tendencies, Pittsburgh's story is interesting because of the strict gender roles, division of labor, and industrial capabilities that characterized the city. I will explore Pittsburgh working women's experiences and media representation of them, focusing in part on how they were called into action, the ideology and propaganda forced on them, and the conditions they faced during the war effort.
Ultralow Thermal Conductivity of Isotope-Doped Silicon Nanowires

description: The thermal conductivity of silicon nanowires (SiNWs) is investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. It is found that the thermal conductivity of SiNWs can be reduced exponentially by isotopic defects at room temperature. The thermal conductivity reaches the minimum, which is about 27% of that of pure 28Si NW, when doped with fifty percent isotope atoms. The thermal conductivity of isotopic-superlattice structured SiNWs depends clearly on the period of superlattice. At a critical period of 1.09 nm, the thermal conductivity is only 25% of the value of pure Si NW. An anomalous enhancement of thermal conductivity is observed when the superlattice period is smaller than this critical length. The ultra-low thermal conductivity of superlattice structured SiNWs is explained with phonon spectrum theory.

description: Context: observations of water lines are a sensitive probe of the geometry, dynamics and chemical structure of dense molecular gas. The launch of Herschel with on board HIFI and PACS allow to probe the behaviour of multiple water lines with unprecedented sensitivity and resolution. Aims: we investigate the diagnostic value of specific water transitions in high-mass star-forming regions. As a test case, we apply our models to the AFGL2591 region. Results: in general, for models with a constant water abundance, the ground state lines, i.e., 1_(10)-1_(01), 1_(11)-0_(00), and 2_(12)-1_(01), are predicted in absorption, all the others in emission. This behaviour changes for models with a water abundance jump profile in that the line profiles for jumps by a factor of ~10-100 are similar to the line shapes in the constant abundance models, whereas larger jumps lead to emission profiles. Asymmetric line profiles are found for models with a cavity outflow and depend on the inclination angle. Models with an outflow cavity are favoured to reproduce the SWAS observations of the 1_(10)-1_(01) ground-state transition. PACS spectra will tell us about the geometry of these regions, both through the continuum and through the lines. Conclusions: it is found that the low-lying transitions of water are sensitive to outflow features, and represent the excitation conditions in the outer regions. High-lying transitions are more sensitive to the adopted density and temperature distribution which probe the inner excitation conditions. The Herschel mission will thus be very helpful to constrain the physical and chemical structure of high-mass star-forming regions such as AFGL2591.
