description: We present dynamical effects on conformation in a simple bead-spring model consisting of three beads connected by two stiff springs. The conformation defined by the bending angle between the two springs is determined not only by a given potential energy function depending on the bending angle, but also fast motion of the springs which constructs the effective potential. A conformation corresponding with a local minimum of the effective potential is hence called the dynamically induced conformation. We develop a theory to derive the effective potential by using multiple-scale analysis and the averaging method. A remarkable consequence is that the effective potential depends on the excited normal modes of the springs and amount of the spring energy. Efficiency of the obtained effective potential is numerically verified.

description: If connecting properties of a multiquark hadron with those exhibited by its constituents, QCD sum rules inferred along the routes of traditional wisdom necessarily involve contributions not related at all to and thus not presenting information about multiquarks. Realizing this deficiency, we propose to increase, for the example of tetraquarks, the predictive power of the QCD sum-rule formalism by disposal of all of the unwanted contributions from the very beginning; this move is easily accomplished by subjecting the contributions to our perspicuous selection criterion.

description: Stable mass transfer from a massive post-main sequence (post-MS) donor is thought to be a short-lived event of thermal-timescale mass transfer which strips the donor star of nearly its entire H-rich envelope, producing a hot helium star. This long-standing picture is based on stellar models with Hertzprung gap (HG) donors. Motivated by a finding that in low-metallicity binaries, post-MS mass transfer may instead be initiated by core-helium burning (CHeB) donors, we use the MESA code to compute grids of detailed massive binary models at three metallicities: Solar and that of the Large and the Small Magellanic Cloud (LMC, SMC). We find that metallicity strongly influences the course and outcome of mass transfer. We identify two novel types of post-MS mass transfer: (a) mass exchange on the long nuclear timescale that continues until the end of the CHeB phase, and (b) rapid mass transfer leading to detached binaries with mass-losers that are only partially stripped of their envelopes. In neither (a) or (b) does the donor become a fully stripped helium star by the end of CHeB. Boundaries between the different types of post-MS mass transfer are associated with the degree of rapid post-MS expansion and, for a given metallicity, are sensitive to the assumptions about internal mixing. At low metallicity, we predict fewer hot fully stripped stars formed through binary interactions and higher compactness of pre-supernova cores. Nuclear-timescale post-MS mass transfer suggests a strong preference for metal-poor host galaxies of ultra-luminous X-ray sources with black-hole (BH) accretors and massive donors, some of which might be the immediate progenitors of binary BH mergers. It also implies a population of interacting binaries with blue and yellow supergiant donors. Partially-stripped stars could potentially explain the puzzling nitrogen-enriched slowly-rotating (super)giants in the LMC.

description: The nearby elliptical galaxy Cen A is surrounded by a flattened system of dwarf satellite galaxies with coherent motions. Using a novel Bayesian approach, we measure the mean rotation velocity $v_{\rm rot}$ and velocity dispersion $σ_{\rm int}$ of the satellite system. We find $v_{\rm rot}/σ_{\rm int} \simeq 0.7$ indicating that the satellite system has non-negligible rotational support. Using Jeans' equations, we measure a circular velocity of 258 km s$^{-1}$ and a dynamical mass of $1.2\times 10^{13}$ M$_\odot$ within 800 kpc. In a $Λ$CDM cosmological context, we find that the Cen A group has a baryon fraction $M_{\rm b}/M_{200}\simeq0.035$ and is missing $\sim$77$\%$ of the cosmologically available baryons. Consequently, Cen A should have a hot intergalactic medium with a mass of $\sim$8$\times$10$^{11}$ M$_\odot$, which is more than $\sim$20 times larger than current X-ray estimates. Intriguingly, The whole Cen A group lies on the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation defined by individual rotationally supported galaxies, as expected in Milgromian dynamics (MOND) with no need of missing baryons.

description: There has been much work in recent years pertaining to viability studies for the intranuclear observation of neutron-antineutron transformations. These studies begin firstly with the design and implementation of an event generator for the simulation of this rare process, where one hopes to retain as much of the underlying nuclear physics as possible in the initial state, and then studying how these effects may perturb the final state observable particles for detector efficiency studies following simulated reconstruction. There have been several searches for intranuclear neutron-antineutron transformations, primarily utilizing the ${}^{16}_{8}$O nucleus, and completed within large underground water Cherenkov detectors such as Super-Kamiokande. The latest iteration of a generator is presented here for use in such an experiment. This generator includes several new features, including a new radial (position) annihilation probability distribution and related intranuclear suppression factor for ${}^{16}_{8}$O, as well as a highly general, modern nuclear multifragmentation model with photonic de-excitations. The latter of these may allow for improved identification of the signal using large underground detectors such as Super-Kamiokande and the future Hyper-Kamiokande, potentially increasing the overall signal efficiencies of these rare searches. However, it should be noted that certain fast photonic de-excitations may be washed out by $π^0$ decays to photons. These new features implemented in these $\bar{n}$\isotope[15][8]{O} simulations increase the overall physical realism of the model, and are easily portable to other future searches such as to extranuclear $\bar{n}{}^{12}_{6}$C for the ESS NNBAR experiment, as well as intranuclear $\bar{n}{}^{39}_{18}$Ar used in DUNE.

description: We study numerically the the charge neutral excitations (magnetorotons) in fractional quantum Hall systems, concentrating on the two Jain states near quarter filling, $ν=2/7$ and $ν=2/9$, and the $ν=1/4$ Fermi-liquid state itself. In contrast to the $ν=1/3$ states and the Jain states near half filling, on each of the two Jain states $ν=2/7$ and $ν=2/9$ the graviton spectral densities show two, instead of one, magnetoroton peaks. The magnetorotons have spin 2 and have opposite chiralities in the $ν=2/7$ state and the same chirality in the $ν=2/9$ state. We also provide a numerical verification of a sum rule relating the guiding center spin $\bar s$ with the spectral densities of the stress tensor

description: We argue that Left-Right parity symmetry $\mathcal{P}$ can arise as a discrete remnant of a unified gauge symmetry. The high-energy unification necessarily includes the gauging of the Lorentz symmetry, bringing into the game gravitational interactions, and leading to a gravi-GUT scheme. Parity emerges unbroken below the Planck scale, and can be broken spontaneously at lower energies making contact with the Standard Model. This framework motivates the spontaneous origin of parity violation as in Left-Right symmetric theories with $\mathcal{P}$. The possible unifying gauge groups are identified as SO(1,7) for gravitational and weak interactions, or SO(7,7) for a complete unification.

description: In network control theory, driving all the nodes in the Feedback Vertex Set (FVS) forces the network into one of its attractors (long-term dynamic behaviors). The FVS is often composed of more nodes than can be realistically manipulated in a system; for example, only up to three nodes can be controlled in intracellular networks, while their FVS may contain more than 10 nodes. Thus, we developed an approach to rank subsets of the FVS on Boolean models of intracellular networks using topological, dynamics-independent measures. We investigated the use of seven topological prediction measures sorted into three categories -- centrality measures, propagation measures, and cycle-based measures. Using each measure every subset was ranked and then evaluated against two dynamics-based metrics that measure the ability of interventions to drive the system towards or away from its attractors: To Control and Away Control. After examining an array of biological networks, we found that the FVS subsets that ranked in the top according to the propagation metrics can most effectively control the network. This result was independently corroborated on a second array of different Boolean models of biological networks. Consequently, overriding the entire FVS is not required to drive a biological network to one of its attractors, and this method provides a way to reliably identify effective FVS subsets without knowledge of the network's dynamics.

description: The $F$-theorem states that in three dimensions the sphere free energy of a field theory must decrease between ultraviolet and infrared fixed points of the renormalization group flow, and it has been proven for unitary conformal field theories (CFTs). We consider here the long-range bosonic $O(N)^3$ model on a spherical background, at next-to-next-to-leading order of the $1/N$ expansion. The model displays four large-$N$ fixed points and we test and confirm the $F$-theorem holds in this case. This is non-trivial as one of the couplings is imaginary, and therefore the model is non-unitary at finite $N$. Despite this, several tests indicating that the large-$N$ CFTs are in fact unitary have been performed: for instance all the OPE coefficients computed so far in the large-$N$ limit are real, and the spectrum of bilinear operators is real and above unitarity bounds. Our result, namely that the F theorem holds at large $N$, can be viewed as further indication that such theories are unitary. As an added bonus, we show how conformal partial waves expansions in conformal field theory can be used to resum infinite classes of vacuum diagrams. Non-perturbatively, the jump in the value of the free energy has the interpretation of the inclusion at the ultraviolet fixed point of an extra non-normalizable contribution in the conformal partial wave expansion. This can be seen in perturbation theory as the reversal of the sign of an infinite class of diagrams due to the flow of a coupling constant.

description: Recently, the projective robustness of quantum states has been introduced in [arXiv:2109.04481(2021)]. It shows that the projective robustness is a useful resource monotone and can comprehensively characterize capabilities and limitations of probabilistic protocols manipulating quantum resources deterministically. In this paper, we will extend the projective robustness to any convex resource theories of quantum channels and measurements. First, We introduce the projective robustness of quantum channels and prove that it satisfies some good properties, especially sub- or supermultiplicativity under any free quantum process. Moreover, we use the projective robustness of channels to give lower bounds on the errors and overheads in any channel resource distillation. Meanwhile, we show that the projective robustness of channels quantifies the maximal advantage that a given channel outperforms all free channels in simultaneous discrimination and exclusion of a fixed state ensemble. Second, we define the projective robustness of quantum measurements and prove that it exactly quantifies the maximal advantage that a given measurement provides over all free measurements in simultaneous discrimination and exclusion of two fixed state ensembles. Finally, within a specific channel resource setting based on measurement incompatibility, we show that the projective robustness of quantum channels coincides with the projective robustness of measurement incompatibility.

description: Rotors of reaction and diffusion, that revolve around a circular singularity, and the corresponding spiral wave activity around it, influence the nature of several excitable media. Their dynamics are known to be affected by target waves and external gradients. When the core of two spirals come very close to each other, they could either repel or attract, depending on their relative chirality and the distance separating them. Multiple pairs of spiral waves, in close vicinity, could alter the paths of the individual rotors. A single spiral core, will be influenced most by the rotor closest to it, or linked to it by a common wave. If within a limiting distance, they would attract each other, and annihilate. Else, they will push each other away, until they reach a critical distance, beyond which, all interactions seem to cease. We have carried out numerical simulations based on a reaction-diffusion model to show the possible interactions of multiple spiral rotors. We are able to find a quantitative measurement of the distances determining the kind of interaction. Some unique dynamics is also unraveled. Experiments with the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction have successfully demonstrated the validity of our numerical results.

description: Ultrafast photoexcitation can induce a nonequilibrium dynamic with electron-lattice interaction, offering an effective way to study photoinduced phase transitions (PIPTs) in solids. The issue that atomic displacements after photoexcitation belong to coherent change or disordered process, has become a controversy in the PIPT community. Using real-time time-dependent density functional theory (rt-TDDFT) simulations, we obtain both the coherent and the disordered PIPTs (dimer dissociation) in IrTe2 with the different electronic occupations. More importantly, we found that in the disordered phase transition, there exists a local correlation between different dimers regarding their dissociation status. One can define vertical groups across the layers. The dimers in the same group will dissociate in a correlated fashion: they either all dissociate, or all not dissociate. On the other hand, the dimers in neighboring groups will have an anti-correlation: if the dimers in one group dissociate, the dimers in the neighboring group tend not to be dissociated, and vice versus.

description: This document contains the presentation of the project, as well as the presentation materials, and aims at highlighting WhoLoDancE’s objectives while providing some detailed description of different aspects of the project. WhoLoDancE’s outcomes are expected to exert a strong impact on a number of fields including, but not limited to, dance practitioners, and its core concept needs to be presented in a way that can make it understandable to a wide and diverse target audience. For this reason, five different objectives have been identified, and are described in detail, in this project description. Such structuring around five key points is at the basis of all the project materials, which hinge on the five key technological tools that need to be developed, as well as they target five different audiences which are deemed to be most significantly affected by WhoLoDancE.

description: This paper is carried out in the context of the implementation of the thesis for the completion of the Postgraduate Program "Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development". This thesis discusses the issue of renewable energy sources and how they can be used within military installations. In particular, the possibility of developing photovoltaic systems in areas and buildings of the Armed Forces is being examined, as part of the improvement of their environmental, energy and economic impact. The possible developments in the production of electricity through photovoltaic systems aim at increasing their efficiency, reducing the time but also the cost of installation and operation, achieving an optimal life cycle and recycling, to protect the environment and meet energy demand. The technical-economic aspects of the installation of photovoltaic systems will be examined, their advantages and disadvantages will be highlighted, and a Cost-Benefit Analysis will be carried out to investigate their economic viability, based on the installation of photovoltaic systems in a specific building of Camp Dalipi (Thessaloniki).

description: Observations show that the surface brightness of disc galaxies can be well-described by a single exponential (TI), up-bending (TIII) or down-bending (TII) profiles in the outskirts. Here we characterize the mass surface densities of simulated late-type galaxies from the EAGLE project according to their distribution of mono-age stellar populations, the star formation activity and angular momentum content. We find a clear correlation between the inner scale-lengths and the stellar spin parameter, λ, for all three disc types with λ > 0.35. The outer scale-lengths of TII and TIII discs show a positive trend with λ, albeit weaker for the latter. TII discs prefer fast rotating galaxies. With regards to the stellar age distribution, negative and U-shape age profiles are the most common for all disc types. Positive age profiles are determined by a more significant contributions of young stars in the central regions, which decrease rapidly in the outer parts. TII discs prefer relative higher contributions of old stars compared to other mono-age populations across the discs whereas TIII discs become progressively more dominated by intermediate age (2-6 Gyrs) stars for increasing radius. The change in slope of the age profiles is located after the break of the mass surface density. We find evidence of larger flaring for the old stellar populations in TIII systems compared to TI and TII, which could indicate the action of other processes. Overall, the relative distributions of mono-age stellar populations and the dependence of the star formation activity on radius are found to shape the different disc types and age profiles.

description: While first order perturbation theory is routinely used in quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculations, higher-order terms present significant numerical challenges. We present a new approach for computing perturbative corrections in projection QMC calculations. We demonstrate the method by computing nuclear ground state energies up to second order for a realistic chiral interaction. We calculate the binding energies of several light nuclei up to $^{16}$O by expanding the Hamiltonian around the Wigner SU(4) limit and find good agreement with data. In contrast to the natural ordering of the perturbative series, we find remarkably large second order energy corrections. This occurs because the perturbing interactions break the symmetries of the unperturbed Hamiltonian. Our method is free from the sign problem and can be applied to QMC calculations for many-body systems in nuclear physics, condensed matter physics, ultracold atoms, and quantum chemistry.
