description: We explore ballistic regime quantum transport characteristics of oxide-embedded crossing and kinked silicon nanowires (NWs) within a large-scale empirical pseudopotential electronic structure framework, coupled to the Kubo-Greenwood transport analysis. A real-space wave function study is undertaken and the outcomes are interpreted together with the findings of ballistic transport calculations. This reveals that ballistic transport edge lies tens to hundreds of millielectron volts above the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, with a substantial number of localized states appearing in between, as well as above the former. We show that these localized states are not due to the oxide interface, but rather core silicon-derived. They manifest the wave nature of electrons brought to foreground by the reflections originating from NW junctions and bends. Hence, we show that the crossings and kinks of even ultraclean Si NWs possess a conduction band tail without a recourse to atomistic disorder.

description: We review two algorithmic advances that bring us closer to reliable quantum simulations of model systems in high-energy physics and beyond on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. The first method is the dimensional expressivity analysis of quantum circuits, which allows for constructing minimal but maximally expressive quantum circuits. The second method is an efficient mitigation of readout errors on quantum devices. Both methods can lead to significant improvements in quantum simulations, e.g. when variational quantum eigensolvers are used.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Quantum technologies in particle physics’.
Exposure-background duality in the searches of neutrinoless double beta decay
Creators: name: Singh, Manoj Kumar

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: Neutrinoless double-beta decay (0νββ) is an experimentally sensitive avenue to probe the Majorana-versus-Dirac nature and mass scales of neutrinos. This work [1] quantitatively explores the interplay between exposure and background levels in 0νββ experiments with respect to their target sensitivities at the design stage. In particular, background reduction will be playing increasingly important and investment-effective, if not determining, roles in future 0νββ experiments with sensitivity goals of approaching and covering the non-degenerate normal neutrino mass hierarchy. Advances in background suppression can substantially alleviate the necessity of unrealistically large exposure.

description: Lattice QCD simulations directly at physical masses of dynamical light, strange and charm quarks are highly desirable especially to remove systematic errors due to chiral extrapolations. However such simulations are still challenging. We discuss the adaption of efficient algorithms, like multi-grid methods or higher order integrators, within the molecular dynamic steps of the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm, that are enabling simulations of a new set of gauge ensembles by the Extended Twisted Mass collaboration (ETMC). We present the status of the on-going ETMC simulation effort that aims to enabling studies of finite size and discretization effects. We work within the twisted mass discretization which is free of odd-discretization effects at maximal twist and present our tuning procedure.
Band Structure of the Growth Rate of the Two-Stream Instability of an Electron Beam Propagating in a Bounded Plasma

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper presents a study of the two-stream instability of an electron beam propagating in a finite-size plasma placed between two electrodes. It is shown that the growth rate in such a system is much smaller than that of an infinite plasma or a finite size plasma with periodic boundary conditions. Even if the width of the plasma matches the resonance condition for a standing wave, a spatially growing wave is excited instead with the growth rate small compared to that of the standing wave in a periodic system. The approximate expression for this growth rate is $γ\approx (1/13)ω_{pe}(n_{b}/n_{p})(Lω_{pe}/v_{b})\ln (Lω_{pe}/v_{b})[ 1-0.18\cos ( Lω_{pe}/v_{b}+{π}/{2}) ]$, where $ω_{pe}$ is the electron plasma frequency, $n_{b}$ and $n_{p}$ are the beam and the plasma densities, respectively, $v_{b}$ is the beam velocity, and $L$ is the plasma width. The frequency, wave number and the spatial and temporal growth rates as functions of the plasma size exhibit band structure. The amplitude of saturation of the instability depends on the system length, not on the beam current. For short systems, the amplitude may exceed values predicted for infinite plasmas by more than an order of magnitude.

description: We calculate the massless unpolarized Wilson coefficients for deeply inelastic scattering for the structure functions $F_2(x,Q^2), F_L(x,Q^2), x F_3(x,Q^2)$ in the $\overline{\sf MS}$ scheme and the polarized Wilson coefficients of the structure function $g_1(x,Q^2)$ in the Larin scheme up to three--loop order in QCD in a fully automated way based on the method of arbitrary high Mellin moments. We work in the Larin scheme in the case of contributing axial--vector couplings or polarized nucleons. For the unpolarized structure functions we compare to results given in the literature. The polarized three--loop Wilson coefficients are calculated for the first time. As a by--product we also obtain the quarkonic three--loop anomalous dimensions from the $O(1/\varepsilon)$ terms of the unrenormalized forward Compton amplitude. Expansions for small and large values of the Bjorken variable $x$ are provided.

description: Based on Tsallis entropy and the corresponding deformed exponential function, generalized distribution functions for bosons and fermions have been used since a while. However, aiming at a non-extensive quantum statistics further requirements arise from the symmetric handling of particles and holes (excitations above and below the Fermi level). Naive replacements of the exponential function or cut and paste solutions fail to satisfy this symmetry and to be smooth at the Fermi level at the same time. We solve this problem by a general ansatz dividing the deformed exponential to odd and even terms and demonstrate that how earlier suggestions, like the kappa- and q-exponential behave in this respect.

description: Building on the existing "Common BMS RI Framework for Quality Management", this document describes the main aspects of quality management in research infrastructures and their role in standardising operational procedures and improving the reliability and reproducibility of results. Implementing a structured approach to research data management is critical to improving the integrity, accessibility, and reusability of data. The formulation of data management plans is mandatory for EC-funded projects. Data provenance, FAIRification and secure access to sensitive data are essential elements of data management. EOSC-Life has developed a set of tools and resources to help research infrastructures manage these aspects effectively. For research infrastructures that offer multiple data services, a structured approach to managing IT services can be beneficial. The FitSM methodology is highlighted in this context, since its flexible and lightweight approach is particularly suited to smaller organisations. By integrating these structured approaches to quality management, data management and IT service management, research infrastructures can significantly improve the overall quality, integrity and reliability of their research activities and services.
Using Sparse Convolutional Neural Networks in MicroBooNE
Creators: name: Itay, Ran
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The MicroBooNE experiment employs a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) detector to measure sub-GeV neutrino interactions from the muon neutrino beam produced by the Booster Neutrino Beamline at Fermilab. Neutrino oscillation measurements, such as those performed in MicroBooNE, rely on the capability to distinguish between different flavors of neutrino interactions. Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) present high success for these tasks; however, due to the large sparsity of the data ( < 1% pixels are non-zero), a naive approach of applying CNNs becomes highly inefficient in both computation time and memory resources. Recently Submanifold Sparse Convolutional Networks (SSCNs) have been proposed to address this challenge and have successfully applied to analyze large LArTPC images in MicroBooNE with orders of magnitude improvement in computing resource usage. In this poster, I will present the performance of SSCNs on the task of Semantic Segmentation applied in the analysis of simulated MicroBooNE data.

description: Type 1 fimbriae mediate adhesion of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) to host cells. It has been hypothesized that fimbriae can, by their ability to uncoil under exposure to force, reduce fluid shear stress on the adhesin-receptor interaction by which the bacterium adheres to the surface. In this work we develop a model that describes how the force on the adhesin-receptor interaction of a type 1 fimbriae varies as a bacterium is affected by a time dependent fluid flow mimicking in vivo conditions. The model combines in vivo hydrodynamic conditions with previously assessed biomechanical properties of the fimbriae. Numerical methods are used to solve for the motion and adhesion force under the presence of time dependent fluid profiles. It is found that a bacterium tethered with a type 1 pilus will experience significantly reduced shear stress for moderate to high flow velocities and that the maximum stress the adhesin will experience is limited to ~120 pN, which is sufficient to activate the conformational change of the FimH adhesin into its stronger state but also lower than the force required for breaking it under rapid loading. Our model thus supports the assumption that the type 1 fimbriae shaft and the FimH adhesin-receptor interaction are optimized to each other, and that they give piliated bacteria significant advantages in rapidly changing fluidic environments.

description: We discuss a simple quantum thermal machine for the generation of steady-state entanglement between two interacting qubits. The machine is autonomous in the sense that it uses only incoherent interactions with thermal baths, but no source of coherence or external control. By weakly coupling the qubits to thermal baths at different temperatures, inducing a heat current through the system, steady-state entanglement is generated far from thermal equilibrium. Finally, we discuss two possible implementations, using superconducting flux qubits or a semiconductor double quantum dot. Experimental prospects for steady-state entanglement are promising in both systems.

description: Achieving sustainability on an urban scale is an overwhelming problem. We can address this by dividing the problem into manageable proportions. Environmental impacts of urban design fall into measurable categories, for example, air quality, biodiversity, solid wastes, water and wastewater, hazardous materials, and impacts of nonrenewable energy use. Such measures are incorporated into building rating systems as a way of codifying sustainability. In this chapter, to illustrate such codification, we examine water use as well as generated wastewater according to the requirements of a specific sustainable building rating system. Conventional calculations are coupled with building information modeling to illustrate the overall effects of parametrically selecting fixtures, systems and materials to control the use of potable water. We further demonstrate how this approach of combining parametric building information modeling with measures of their environmental impacts can be employed on an urban scale, thereby, guiding the design of sustainable urban spaces.

MIST-1: A dedicated H2+ Ion Source for IsoDAR
Creators: name: Smolsky, Joseph
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The IsoDAR experiment will have 5-sigma sensitivity to the allowed regions for eV scale sterile neutrinos, which were postulated based on the LSND and MiniBooNE low-energy excesses of events. To achieve this sensitivity, IsoDAR requires 10 mA of 60 MeV protons on target for 5 years of runtime. For compactness and cost-effectiveness, a cyclotron was chosen as driver. 10 mA is an order of magnitude above commercially available compact cyclotron currents at this energy. To overcome space-charge limitations, one of the innovations of the IsoDAR cyclotron is to accelerate H2+ ions instead of H- or protons. MIST-1 is a filament driven multicusp ion source, currently being commissioned for this purpose. Here, we present an overview of the IsoDAR experiment, an update on the current status, and early commissioning results of MIST-1.

description: A direct application of Zorn's Lemma gives that every Lipschitz map $f:X\subset \mathbb{Q}_p^n\to \mathbb{Q}_p^\ell$ has an extension to a Lipschitz map $\widetilde f: \mathbb{Q}_p^n\to \mathbb{Q}_p^\ell$. This is analogous, but more easy, to Kirszbraun's Theorem about the existence of Lipschitz extensions of Lipschitz maps $S\subset \mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^\ell$. Recently, Fischer and Aschenbrenner obtained a definable version of Kirszbraun's Theorem. In the present paper, we prove in the $p$-adic context that $\widetilde f$ can be taken definable when $f$ is definable, where definable means semi-algebraic or subanalytic (or, some intermediary notion). We proceed by proving the existence of definable, Lipschitz retractions of $\mathbb{Q}_p^n$ to the topological closure of $X$ when $X$ is definable.
Latest results from the CUORE experiment on double beta decay of $^{130}Te$ to the first $0^+$ excited state of $^{130}Xe$

description: The CUORE experiment is the largest bolometric array ever built with the main goal of searching for the lepton flavor violating neutrinoless double beta decay of $^{130}\mathrm{Te}$. The closely packed arrangement of the CUORE crystals allows us to look for coincident signals between detectors. The latest results on $^{130}\mathrm{Te}$ $0\nu\beta\beta$ and $2\nu\beta\beta$ decay to the first $0^{+}$ excited state of $^{130}\mathrm{Xe}$ will be presented and discussed. The presence of de-excitation gammas in the final state helps reducing the background by studying coincident events in two or more bolometers.

description: Actually, software products are increasing in a fast way and are used in almost all activities of human life. Consequently measuring and evaluating the quality of a software product has become a critical task for many companies. Several models have been proposed to help diverse types of users with quality issues. The development of techniques for building software has influenced the creation of models to assess the quality. Since 2000 the construction of software started to depend on generated or manufactured components and gave rise to new challenges for assessing quality. These components introduce new concepts such as configurability, reusability, availability, better quality and lower cost. Consequently the models are classified in basic models which were developed until 2000, and those based on components called tailored quality models. The purpose of this article is to describe the main models with their strengths and point out some deficiencies. In this work, we conclude that in the present age, aspects of communications play an important factor in the quality of software

description: While entanglement is believed to be an important ingredient in understanding quantum many-body physics, the complexity of its characterization scales very unfavorably with the size of the system. Finding super-sets of the set of separable states that admit a simpler description has proven to be a fruitful approach in the bipartite setting. In this paper we discuss a systematic way of characterizing multiparticle entanglement via various relaxations. We furthermore describe an operational witness construction arising from such relaxations that is capable of detecting every entangled state. Finally, we also derive an analytic upper-bound on the volume of biseparable states and show that the volume of the states with a positive partial transpose for any split rapidly outgrows this volume. This proves that simple semi-definite relaxations in the multiparticle case cannot be an equally good approximation for any scenario.

description: Walter Curt Behrendt's architectural criticism in Germany between 1907 and 1927 reveals a remarkably continuous and often nationalistic rhetoric, that of a nation needing to maintain and re-forge its identity by creating a modern architecture. Before the First World War, a "New Style" (Neuen Stil) was to replace an outdated academic eclecticism and push Germany's culture into the modern world. During the war, hardship and patriotism dictated a similarly sober (Sachlich), Prussian building style for rebuilding and tackling the impending housing crisis. After the war, a rational, appropriately modern program of the decentralization of German cities and the creation of a national house--a "New Building" (Neues Bauen)--were promoted as ways to lift a defeated country out of its psychic and architectural low point.

description: Understanding animal movements and modelling the routes they travel can be essential in studies of pathogen transmission dynamics. Pathogen biology is also of crucial importance, defining the manner in which infectious agents are transmitted. In this article we investigate animal movement with relevance to pathogen transmission by physical rather than airborne contact, using the domestic chicken and its protozoan parasite Eimeria as an example. We have obtained a configuration for the maximum possible distance that a chicken can walk through straight and non-overlapping paths (defined in this paper) on square grid graphs. We have obtained preliminary results for such walks which can be practically adopted and tested as a foundation to improve understanding of non-airborne pathogen transmission. Linking individual non-overlapping walks within a grid-delineated area can be used to support modeling of the frequently repetitive, overlapping walks characteristic of the domestic chicken, providing a framework to model faecal deposition and subsequent parasite dissemination by faecal/host contact.We also pose an open problem on multiple walks on finite grid graphs. These results grew from biological insights and have potential applications. Keywords: Spread of bird diseases, Eimeria, Maximum walks, longest paths, NP-Complete. MSC: 92A17, 68Q17

description: Some commonly used chemicals have teratogenic effects. Perchloroethylene (PCE) is a liquid that is widely used in various industries and drying clothes. In this study, the teratogenic effects of PCE in rat embryos were investigated. In this experimental study, 32 adult Wistar female rats in the weight range of 230-250 g were used. Female rats were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 8). Control group (without PCE inhalation), experimental group G(I) (exposed to PCE 18 days prior to mating), experimental group G(II) (exposed to PCE 18 days after mating) and experimental group G(III) (exposed to PCE 18 days before and 18 days after mating). Pregnant rats were anesthetized on the 18th day of gestation and then serum and embryos were removed for the required studies. Embryos were examined for number, weight, sex, morphometric parameters of organs, and tissue samples were prepared for histological studies. Serum isolated from dams were evaluated for sexual and gonadal hormones. The results of this study showed that PCE has teratogenic effects on rat embryos. Infertility and reduced birth rate were other effects of PCE in rats. PCE has teratogenic effects and impairs the reproductive system of rats.

description: Food and feed contamination by nonlegislated mycotoxins beauvericin (BEA) and enniatin B (ENB) is a worldwide health concern in the present. The principal objective of this work is to assess some of the existing protocols to discover the single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in transcriptomic data obtained by RNA-seq from Jurkat cells in vitro samples individually exposed to BEA and ENB at three concentration levels (1.5, 3 and 5 µM). Moreover, previous transcriptomic results will be compared with new findings obtained using a different protocol. SNVs rs201003509 in BEA exposed cells and the rs36045790 in ENB were found in the differentially expressed genes in all doses compared to controls by means of the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) Best Practices workflow. SNV-RNA-seq complementary pipeline did not show any SNV. Concerning gene expression, discrepant results were found for 1.5 µM BEA exposed cells compared with previous findings. However, 354 overlapped differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the three ENB concentrations used, with 147 matches with respect to the 245 DEGs found in the previous results. In conclusion, the two discovery SNVs protocols based on variant calling from RNA-seq used in this work displayed very different results and there were SNVs found manually not identified by any pipeline. Additionally, the new gene expression analysis reported comparable but non identical DEGs to the previous transcriptomic results obtained from these RNA-seq data.

description: Metals and metalloids are integral to biological processes and play key roles in physiology and metabolism.Nonetheless, overexposure to some metals or lack of others can lead to serious health consequences. In this study,eight zebrafish facilities collaborated to generate a multielement analysis of their centralized recirculating watersystems. We report a first set of average concentrations for 46 elements detected in zebrafish facilities. Our resultshelp to establish an initial baseline for trouble-shooting purposes, and in general for safe ranges of metalconcentrations in recirculating water systems, supporting reproducible scientific research outcomes with zebrafish.
Analysis Status of NEOS Phase-II

description: NEOS experiment, being carried out in the tendon gallery of the Hanbit reactor unit 5, detects electron anti-neutrinos from the reactor core at 24 m distance to search for sterile neutrinos. The first phase of NEOS experiment with 180-day data (2015-2016) did not show any strong evidence of active-to-sterile neutrino oscillation. NEOS phase-II operating since Sept. 2018 took 500 days of reactor-on data covering a whole burnup cycle. Now the reactor is turned off and the detector is still running to obtain background data. In this talk, we report analysis status of NEOS phase-II, including very preliminary results of the 500-day data.
Absorption of waves by large scale winds in stratified turbulence

description: The atmosphere is a nonlinear stratified fluid in which internal gravity waves are present. These waves interact with the flow, resulting in wave turbulence that displays important differences with the turbulence observed in isotropic and homogeneous flows. We study numerically the role of these waves and their interaction with the large scale flow, consisting of vertically sheared horizontal winds. We calculate their space and time resolved energy spectrum (a four-dimensional spectrum), and show that most of the energy is concentrated along a dispersion relation that is Doppler shifted by the horizontal winds. We also observe that when uniform winds are let to develop in each horizontal layer of the flow, waves whose phase velocity is equal to the horizontal wind speed have negligible energy. This indicates a nonlocal transfer of their energy to the mean flow. Both phenomena, the Doppler shift and the absorption of waves traveling with the wind speed, are not accounted for in current theories of stratified wave turbulence.

description: We describe some families of differentiable vector fields with the Hopf bifurcation at infinity, without assuming the continuous differentiability. These vector fields have isolated singular points on the plane, and the initial families are obtained by special perturbations at infinity of a vector field with some spectral property, for instance the dissipativity. The strong domination imposed by the spectral condition in the differentiable vector field is used, and then we do not apply the standard Poincaré compactification. Moreover, the perturbation of planar systems with a global period annulus is also considered.

The boundary of a shape and its classification

description: A unified algebraic foundation for shape computation is presented wherein the description of a shape is explored as a sum of disjoint segments and theresult of shape computation is expressed in terms of a classification of the boundaries of these segments. Shapes are considered as collections of spatial elements of limited but nonzero measure, independently of dimensionality or shape type.  A spatial element is itself specified by two shapes: a carrier and a boundary.  The carrier is a shape in which the element is embedded and is of the same type as the element.  The boundary represents the form of the element and is a shape of a different type.  A particular kind of spatial element or shape is a segment that has no nonempty proper subshape, the boundary of which is a subshape of the boundary of the segment.  It is shown that a shape is the sum of a unique finite set of disjoint segments with disjoint boundaries.  Then, the shape is said to be maximal and the boundary of a maximal shape is the sum of the boundaries of its maximal segments. Boundary segments of a shape can be classified with respect to another shape as to be inside or outside the other shape, or shared in the same way or shared oppositely between the two shapes.  From this classification, the boundary of a shape resulting from a shape operation on two shapes is determined by summing appropriate classes of segments.  In a similar way, shape relations between two shapes are shown to depend on the distribution of the boundary segments of each shape into these classes.

description: Distributed signal processing algorithms have become a hot topic during the past years. One class of algorithms that have received special attention are particles filters (PFs). However, most distributed PFs involve various heuristic or simplifying approximations and, as a consequence, classical convergence theorems for standard PFs do not hold for their distributed counterparts. In this paper, we analyze a distributed PF based on the non-proportional weight-allocation scheme of Bolic {\em et al} (2005) and prove rigorously that, under certain stability assumptions, its asymptotic convergence is guaranteed uniformly over time, in such a way that approximation errors can be kept bounded with a fixed computational budget. To illustrate the theoretical findings, we carry out computer simulations for a target tracking problem. The numerical results show that the distributed PF has a negligible performance loss (compared to a centralized filter) for this problem and enable us to empirically validate the key assumptions of the analysis.

description: Background Data from extensive mobile measurements (MM) of air pollutants provide spatially resolved information on pedestrians’ exposure to particulate matter (black carbon (BC) and PM2.5 mass concentrations). Objective We present a distributional regression model in a Bayesian framework that estimates the effects of spatiotemporal factors on the pollutant concentrations influencing pedestrian exposure. Methods We modeled the mean and variance of the pollutant concentrations obtained from MM in two cities and extended commonly used lognormal models with a lognormal-normal convolution (logNNC) extension for BC to account for instrument measurement error. Results The logNNC extension significantly improved the BC model. From these model results, we found local sources and, hence, local mitigation efforts to improve air quality, have more impact on the ambient levels of BC mass concentrations than on the regulated PM2.5. Significance Firstly, this model (logNNC in bamlss package available in R) could be used for the statistical analysis of MM data from various study areas and pollutants with the potential for predicting pollutant concentrations in urban areas. Secondly, with respect to pedestrian exposure, it is crucial for BC mass concentration to be monitored and regulated in areas dominated by traffic-related air pollution.

description: CROSS (Cryogenic Rare-event Observatory with Surface Sensitivity) project is focused on 0$\nu$2$\beta$ decay searches with surface-sensitive bolometers, aiming to develop a mid-scale demonstrator with Li$_2^{100}$MoO$_4$ bolometers and Al coating, which allows rejecting near-surface events thanks to pulse shape modification, induced by the superconducting film. Several bolometers were installed in 2019 with the goal to verify the required performance for CROSS needs. Li$_2$MoO$_4$ crystals and Ge light detectors, instrumented with NTD sensors, were measured over 5 months with $\sim$90% duty cycle. A study of pulse shape discrimination with 0.2 $\mu$m Al coating on the lateral side of Li$_2$MoO$_4$ cylindrical crystal (mass $\sim$210 g) is performed. Cubic Li$_2$MoO$_4$ crystals show excellent performance of the dual heat-light read-out, efficient particle identification, and hints on high crystal radiopurity.
