description: Ongoing developments in the synthesis of nanostructured materials have led to a boom in the number of fabricatable nanomaterials. However, while there is a large body of
work on how to fabricate increasingly complex nanostructures, there are relatively few systematic approaches for selecting which structures to fabricate so as to optimize for a particular functionality. In this thesis, we present a generic framework for modeling the design of nanostructured materials as mathematical optimization problems. Our work takes advantage of results from computationally demanding models (e.g. energies from
quantum chemical calculations or kinetics from Monte Carlo simulations) from which it regresses simplified structure-function relationships that can be used in conjunction
with a supervisory optimization algorithm to guide the design of highly functional nanostructures. We develop detailed mathematical optimization models for extended
heterogeneous catalyst surfaces, doped perovskite oxygen carriers, and Wigner crystals while highlighting the ability of our approach to address a wide range of other material
systems. In addition to detailed models, we have developed a general purpose Python package called MatOpt for streamlining the process of specifying optimizing materials
and for lowering the barriers for applying mathematical optimization to materials problems. Our work provides systematic approaches for managing the combinatorial
complexity of the nanomaterials design space and demonstrates the value of process systems engineering principles applied in new contexts.

description: We present the first X-ray detection of resonant absorption from warm/hot local gas either in our Galaxy, or in the Intergalactic space surrounding our Galaxy, along the line of sight toward the blazar PKS 2155-304. The Chandra HRCS-LETG spectrum of this z=0.116 source clearly shows unresolved OVII(Ka) and NeIX(Ka) resonant absorption lines at 21.603 A and 13.448 A (i.e. cz = [-340--200] km/s in the rest frame, from the OVII line). OVIII(Ka) and OVII(Kb) from the same system are also detected at a lower significance level, while upper limits are set on OVIII(Kb), NeX(Ka) and NeIX(Kb). The FUSE spectrum of this source shows complex OVI(2s-->2p) absorption at the same redshift as the X-ray system, made by at least two components: one relatively narrow and slightly redshifted, and one broader and blueshifted (cz = -135 km/s). We demonstrate that the physical states of the UV and X-ray absorbers are hard to reconcile with a single, purely collisionally ionized, equilibrium plasma. We propose, instead, that the X-ray and, at least the broader and blueshifted UV absorber are produced in a low density intergalactic plasma (partly photoionized by the diffuse extragalactic X-ray background), collapsing towards our Galaxy, consistent with the predictions of a Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium (WHIM) from numerical simulations. We find that any reasonable solution requires overabundance of Ne compared to O by a factor of ~2, with respect to the solar value and propose several scenarios to account for this observation.

description: We study the conformal spectra of the critical square lattice Ising model on the Klein bottle and Möbius strip using Yang-Baxter techniques and the solution of functional equations. In particular, we obtain expressions for the finitized conformal partition functions in terms of finitized Virasoro characters. This demonstrates that Yang-Baxter techniques and functional equations can be used to study the conformal spectra of more general exactly solvable lattice models in these topologies. The results rely on certain properties of the eigenvalues which are confirmed numerically.

description: Let G be a connected real reductive Lie group acting linearly on a finite dimensional vector space V over R. This action admits a Kempf-Ness function and so we have an associated gradient map. If G is Abelian we explicitly compute the image of G orbits under the gradient map, generalizing a result proved by Kac and Peterson. A similar result is proved for the gradient map associated to the natural $G$ action on P(V). We also investigate the convex hull of the image of the gradient map restricted on the closure of G orbits. Finally, we give a new proof of the Hilbert-Mumford criterion for real reductive Lie groups avoiding any algebraic result

description: We consider the environment-affected dynamics of $N$ self-interacting particles living in one-dimensional double wells. Two topics are dealt with. First, we consider the production of entangled states of two-level systems. We show that by adiabatically varying the well biases we may dynamically generate maximally entangled states, starting from initially unentangled product states. Entanglement degradation due to a common type of environmental influence is then computed by solving a master equation. However, we also demonstrate that entanglement production is unaffected if the system-environment coupling is of the type that induces ``motional narrowing''. As our second but related topic, we construct a different master equation that seamlessly merges error protection/detection dynamics for quantum information with the environmental couplings responsible for producing the errors in the first place. Adiabatic avoided crossing schemes are used in both topics.

Scalar mesons in the chiral theory with quark degrees of freedom

description: The Chiral Confining Lagrangian, based on the chiral theory with quark degrees of freedom, is used to study the spectroscopy of scalar mesons. The formalism does not contain arbitrary fitting parameters and takes into account infinite number of transitions from meson-meson to quark-antiquark states. Starting from known $q\bar q$ poles the transition coefficients ensure the strong shift of the poles for the $ππ$ and much smaller shift for the $K\bar K$ systems. The resulting amplitudes $f_{ππ}$ and $f_{K\bar K}$ are calculated in terms of the $q\bar q$ and the free meson Green's functions. With the account of the $ππ/K\bar{K}$ channel coupling one obtains two resonances: a wide resonance $E_1$ in the range 500-700 MeV and narrow $E_2 $ near 1 GeV, which can be associated with $f_0(500)$ and $f_0(980)$. A similar analysis, applied to the $I=1$ channel, shows that in this case two very close poles in different sheets appear near $E=980$ MeV, which can be associated with the $a_0 (980)$ resonance. The obtained $ππ$ interaction amplitudes, $\operatorname{Re} f_{ππ} (E)$ and $\operatorname{Im} f_{ππ}(E)$ are compared with the known data.

description: In this article, the stability of p-i-n perovskite solar cells is studied under accelerated heat lifetime conditions (60 oC ,85oC and N2 atmosphere). By using a combination of buffer layer engineering, impedance spectroscopy and other characterization techniques, we propose the interaction of the perovskite active layer with the top Al metal electrode through diffusion mechanisms as the major thermal degradation pathway for planar inverted perovskite photovoltaics (PVs) under 85oC heat conditions. We show that by using thick solution processed fullerene buffer layer the perovskite active layer can be isolated from the top metal electrode and improve the lifetime performance of the inverted perovskite photovoltaics at 85 oC. Finally, we present an optimized solution processed inverted perovskite PV device using thick fullerene-based diffusion blocking layer with over 1000 hours accelerated heat lifetime performance at 60oC.

description: Our main aim in this paper is to constrain the effective field theory describing the top quark couplings through the $e^{-} e^{+} \rightarrow t \bar{t}+$jet process. The analysis is carried out considering two different center-of-mass energies of 500 and 3000 GeV including a realistic simulation of the detector response and the main sources of background processes. The expected limits at 95\% CL are derived on the new physics couplings such as $t \bar t γ$, $t \bar t Z$, and $t \bar t g$ for each benchmark scenario using the dileptonic $t \bar{t}$ final state. We show that the 95\% CL limits on dimensionless Wilson coefficients $\bar{c}_i$ considered in this analysis could be probed down to $10^{-4}$.

Being and Change: Foundations of a Realistic Operational Formalism

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The aim of this article is to represent the general description of an entity by means of its states, contexts and properties. The entity that we want to describe does not necessarily have to be a physical entity, but can also be an entity of a more abstract nature, for example a concept, or a cultural artifact, or the mind of a person, etc..., which means that we aim at very general description. The effect that a context has on the state of the entity plays a fundamental role, which means that our approach is intrinsically contextual. The approach is inspired by the mathematical formalisms that have been developed in axiomatic quantum mechanics, where a specific type of quantum contextuality is modelled. However, because in general states also influence context -- which is not the case in quantum mechanics -- we need a more general setting than the one used there. Our focus on context as a fundamental concept makes it possible to unify `dynamical change' and `change under influence of measurement', which makes our approach also more general and more powerful than the traditional quantum axiomatic approaches. For this reason an experiment (or measurement) is introduced as a specific kind of context. Mathematically we introduce a state context property system as the structure to describe an entity by means of its states, contexts and properties. We also strive from the start to a categorical setting and derive the morphisms between state context property systems from a merological covariance principle. We introduce the category SCOP with as elements the state context property systems and as morphisms the ones that we derived from this merological covariance principle. We introduce property completeness and state completeness and study the operational foundation of the formalism

Esto permite complementar las alarmas pro activas del EIPFDcMM con un tratamiento recomendado sobre la entidad bajo análisis ante una situación dada. Dicho tratamiento es obtenido mediante razonamiento basado en casos desde la MOBC. Se empleó el esquema CINCAMI/MIS como medio para portar la información entre la MOBC y el EIPFDcMM, requiriendo organizar la MOBC mediante una estrategia clave – valor para gestionar información con diferentes niveles de estructuración. Esto representa un avance importante, por cuanto permite no solo establecer un mecanismo de retroalimentación a partir del EIPFDcMM, sino que permite a partir de la MOBC complementar las alarmas con cursos de acción basados en la experiencia previa. Con el fin de ilustrar la estrategia, se utiliza una prueba de concepto.
X-ray sources in the starburst spiral galaxy M83: nuclear region and discrete source population

description: Chandra has resolved the starburst nuclear region of the face-on grand-design spiral M83. Eighty-one point sources are detected above 3.5 sigma in the ACIS S3 image, and 15 of them are within the inner 16-arcsec region of the galaxy. A point source with L_x ~ 3 x 10^(38) erg/s in the 0.3--8.0 keV band is found to coincide with the infra-red nuclear photometric peak, one of the two dynamical nuclei of the galaxy. No point-like sources are resolved (at a 2.5-sigma level) at the centre of symmetry of the outer optical isophote ellipses, suspected to be another dynamical nucleus. About 50% of the total emission in the nuclear region is unresolved; of this, about 70% can be attributed to hot thermal plasma, and the rest is probably due to unresolved point sources (eg, faint X-ray binaries). The azimuthally-averaged radial distribution of the unresolved emission has a King-like profile, with no central cusp. Strong emission lines are seen in the spectrum of the optically thin plasma component. The high abundances of C, Ne, Mg, Si and S with respect to Fe suggest that the interstellar medium in the nucleus is enriched and heated by type-II supernova explosions and winds from massive stars. The cumulative luminosity distribution of the discrete X-ray sources is neither a single nor a broken power law. Separating the sources in the nuclear region (within a distance of 60 arcsec from the X-ray centre) from the rest reveals that the two groups have different luminosity distributions. The log[N(>S)]--log S curve of the sources in the inner region (nucleus and stellar bar) is a single power law, which we interpret as due to continuous, ongoing star formation. Outside the central region, there is a smaller fraction of sources brighter than the Eddington limit for an accreting neutron star.

description: We propose a new approach to investigate inflation in a model-independent way, and in particular to elaborate the involved observables, through the introduction of the "scale factor potential". Through its use one can immediately determine the inflation end, which corresponds to its first (and global) minimum. Additionally, we express the inflationary observables in terms of its logarithm, using as independent variable the e-folding number. As an example, we construct a new class of scalar potentials that can lead to the desired spectral index and tensor-to-scalar ratio, namely $n_s \approx 0.965$ and $r \sim 10^{-4}$ for 60 $e$-folds, in agreement with observations.

description: For a finite subgroup G in SL(3,C), Bridgeland, King and Reid proved that the moduli space of G-clusters is a crepant resolution of the quotient C^3/G. This paper considers the moduli spaces M_θ, introduced by Kronheimer and further studied by Sardo Infirri, which coincide with G-Hilb for a particular choice of the GIT parameter θ. For G Abelian, we prove that every projective crepant resolution of C^3/G is isomorphic to M_θfor some parameter θ. The key step is the description of GIT chambers in terms of the K-theory of the moduli space via the appropriate Fourier--Mukai transform. We also uncover explicit equivalences between the derived categories of moduli M_θfor parameters lying in adjacent GIT chambers.

description: The work implements the Educational Process and Data Mining (EPDM) model on the ECOA SET data by determining the frequency of the top 20 qualities that the students perceive as important in the evaluation of the teachers' performance in the data (ECOA). Technically, the sets of qualities were analyzed in terms of the Male and Female teachers by determining the clustering of words, frequencies, and correlation of the different words. In other word, whereas, the word frequencies are represented according to the highest to the lowest appearing words, the correlation of the words were determined by measuring the probability scales from 0 to 1 values (where: 0 represents 0% and 1 represents 100% likelihood of the students using the associated words in the data). Consequently, the results of the method are as presented in the following Table I.

description: We consider a conception of reality that is the following: An object is 'real' if we know that if we would try to test whether this object is present, this test would give us the answer 'yes' with certainty. If we consider a conception of reality where probability plays a fundamental role it can be shown that standard probability theory is not well suited to substitute 'certainty' by means of 'probability equal to 1'. The analysis of this problem leads us to propose a new type of probability theory that is a generalization of standard probability theory. This new type of probability is a function to the set of all subsets of the interval [0, 1] instead of to the interval [0, 1] itself, and hence its evaluation happens by means of a subset instead of a number. This subset corresponds to the different limits of sequences of relative frequency that can arise when an intrinsic lack of knowledge about the context and how it influences the state of the physical entity under study in the process of experimentation is taken into account. The new probability theory makes it possible to define probability on the whole set of experiments within the Geneva-Brussels approach to quantum mechanics, which was not possible with standard probability theory. We introduce the structure of a 'state experiment probability system' and derive the state property system as a special case of this structure. The category SEP of state experiment probability systems and their morphisms is linked with the category SP of state property systems and their morphisms

description: The late infall of cold dark matter onto our galaxy produces discrete flows and caustics in its halo. The recently discovered ring of stars near galactocentric distance 20 kpc and a series of sharp rises in the Milky Way rotation curve are interpreted as due to the presence of caustic rings of dark matter in the galactic plane. Their locations are consistent at the 3% level with the predictions of the self-similar infall model for the caustic ring radii. Also, a triangular feature in the IRAS map of the galactic plane is consistent with the imprint of a caustic ring of dark matter upon the baryonic matter. These observations imply that the dark matter in our neighborhood is dominated by a single flow whose density and velocity vector are estimated.

description: One of the major challenges to identification of the 3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, and 11.3um interstellar IR emission bands with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules has been the recent detection of these bands in regions with little UV illumination, since small, neutral PAH molecules have little or no absorption at visible wavelengths and therefore require UV photons for excitation. We show here that our "astronomical" PAH model, incorporating the experimental result that the visual absorption edge shifts to longer wavelength upon ionization and/or as the PAH size increases, can closely reproduce the observed infrared emission bands of vdB 133, a UV-poor reflection nebula. It is also shown that single-photon heating of ``astronomical'' PAHs in reflection nebulae near stars as cool as T_eff=3000K can result in observable emission at 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, and 11.3um. Illustrative mid-IR emission spectra are also calculated for reflection nebulae illuminated by cool stars with T_eff=3500, 4500, 5000K. These will allow comparison with future Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) observations of vdB 135 (T_eff=3600K), vdB 47 (T_eff=4500K), and vdB 101 (T_eff=5000K). It is also shown that the dependence of the 12um IRAS emission relative to the total far-IR emission on the effective temperature of the exciting star is consistent with the PAH model expectation for 3000K < T_eff < 30000K.

description: El enfoque integrado de procesamiento de flujos de datos centrado en metadatos de mediciones, es un gestor de flujos de datos sustentado en un mar-co de medición y evaluación, el cual incorpora comportamiento detectivo y predictivo, mediante el empleo de las mediciones y metadatos asociados. Este trabajo discute la formalización de los procesos asociados con el funcionamien-to del gestor de flujos de datos, como así también la interacción entre ellos. La formalización de los procesos se realiza en base a SPEM, y se consideran las actividades comprendidas entre la configuración de las fuentes de datos involu-cradas en un proceso de medición y evaluación, hasta aquellas asociadas con la emisión de las alarmas detectivas o predictivas. Esto permite hacer comunicable el aspecto de procesos del enfoque, y adicionalmente, abre la posibilidad para medir y evaluar los propios procesos formalizados del enfoque, como medio pa-ra monitorear cuantitativamente su salud funcional en línea.

description: The structural properties of Er-doped AlNO epilayers grown by radio frequency magnetron sputtering were studied by Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) spectra recorded at the Er L 3 edge. The analysis revealed that Er substitutes for Al in all the studied samples and the increase in Er concentration from 0.5 to 3.6 at.% is not accompanied by formation of ErN, Er 2 O 3 or Er clusters. Simultaneously recorded X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) spectra verify that the bonding configuration of Er is similar in all studied samples. The Er-N distance is 2 constant at 2.18-2.19 Å i.e. approximately 15% larger than the Al-N bondlength, revealing that the introduction of Er in the cation sublattice causes considerable local distortion. The Debye-Waller factor, which measures the static disorder, of the second nearest shell of Al neighbors, has a local minimum for the sample containing 1% Er that coincides with the highest photoluminescence efficiency of the sample set.

description: Automatically generating descriptive captions for images is a well-researched area in computer vision. However, existing evaluation approaches focus on measuring the similarity between two sentences disregarding fine-grained semantics of the captions. In our setting of images depicting persons interacting with branded products, the subject, predicate, object and the name of the branded product are important evaluation criteria of the generated captions. Generating image captions with these constraints is a new challenge, which we tackle in this work. By simultaneously predicting integer-valued ratings that describe attributes of the human-product interaction, we optimize a deep neural network architecture in a multi-task learning setting, which considerably improves the caption quality. Furthermore, we introduce a novel metric that allows us to assess whether the generated captions meet our requirements (i.e., subject, predicate, object, and product name) and describe a series of experiments on caption quality and how to address annotator disagreements for the image ratings with an approach called soft targets. We also show that our novel clause-focused metrics are also applicable to other image captioning datasets, such as the popular MSCOCO dataset.

description: Using a new instrument, the HEAT collaboration has confirmed the excess of cosmic ray positrons that they first detected in 1994. We explore the possibility that this excess is due to the annihilation of neutralino dark matter in the galactic halo. We confirm that neutralino annihilation can produce enough positrons to make up the measured excess only if there is an additional enhancement to the signal. We quantify the `boost factor' that is required in the signal for various models in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model parameter space, and study the dependence on various parameters. We find models with a boost factor greater than 30. Such an enhancement in the signal could arise if we live in a clumpy halo. We discuss what part of supersymmetric parameter space is favored (in that it gives the largest positron signal), and the consequences for other direct and indirect searches of supersymmetric dark matter.

description: The metric of the gravity dual of a field theory should contain precisely the same information as the field theory. We discuss this connection in the N=4 theory where a scalar vev may be introducedat the level of 5d supergravity and the solutions lifted to 10d. We stress the role of brane probing in finding the coordinates appropriate to the field theory. In these coordinates the metric parametrizes the gauge invariant operators of the field theory and either side of the duality is uniquely determined by the other. We follow this same chain of computations for the 10d lift of the N=2* geometry of Pilch and Warner. The brane probe of the metric reveals the 2d moduli space and the functional form of the gauge coupling. In the coordinates appropriate to the field theory the metric on moduli space takes a very simple form and one can read off the gravity predictions for operators in the field theory. Surprisingly there is logarithmic renormalization even in the far UV where the field theory reverts to N=4 super Yang-Mills. We extend the analysis of Buchel et al to find the D3 brane source distribution that generates the supergravity prediction for the gauge coupling for the whole class of solutions corresponding to different points on moduli space. This distribution does not account for the logarithmic behaviour in the rest of the metric though. We discuss possible resolutions of the discrepancy.

description: We investigate the motion of uncharged particles scattered by a binary system consisting of extremely charged black holes in equilibrium as described by the Majumdar-Papapetrou solution. We focus on unbound orbits confined to the plane containing both black holes. We consider the two complementary situations of particles approaching the system along a direction parallel to the axis where the black holes are displaced and orthogonal to it. We numerically compute the scattering angle as a function of the particle's conserved energy parameter, which provides a gauge-invariant information of the scattering process. We also study the precession of a test gyroscope along such orbits and evaluate the accumulated precession angle after a full scattering, which is another gauge-invariant quantity.
