Path-integral simulations with fermionic and bosonic reservoirs: Transport and dissipation in molecular electronic junctions

description: We expand iterative numerically-exact influence functional path-integral tools and present a method capable of following the nonequilibrium time evolution of subsystems coupled to multiple bosonic and fermionic reservoirs simultaneously. Using this method, we study the real-time dynamics of charge transfer and vibrational mode excitation in an electron conducting molecular junction. We focus on nonequilibrium vibrational effects, particularly, the development of vibrational instability in a current-rectifying junction. Our simulations are performed by assuming large molecular vibrational anharmonicity (or low temperature). This allows us to truncate the molecular vibrational mode to include only a two-state system. Exact numerical results are compared to perturbative Master equation calculations demonstrating an excellent agreement in the weak electron-phonon coupling regime. Significant deviations take place only at strong coupling. Our simulations allow us to quantify the contribution of different transport mechanisms, coherent dynamics and inelastic transport, in the overall charge current. This is done by studying two model variants: The first admits inelastic electron transmission only, while the second one allows for both coherent and incoherent pathways.

description: Planar N=4 super Yang-Mills appears to be integrable. While this allows to find this theory's exact spectrum, integrability has hitherto been of no direct use for scattering amplitudes. To remedy this, we deform all scattering amplitudes by a spectral parameter. The deformed tree-level four-point function turns out to be essentially the one-loop R-matrix of the integrable N=4 spin chain satisfying the Yang-Baxter equation. Deformed on-shell three-point functions yield novel three-leg R-matrices satisfying bootstrap equations. Finally, we supply initial evidence that the spectral parameter might find its use as a novel symmetry-respecting regulator replacing dimensional regularization. Its physical meaning is a local deformation of particle helicity, a fact which might be useful for a much larger class of non-integrable four-dimensional field theories.

description: The quantum spin-1/2 orthogonal-dimer chain with the Heisenberg intra-dimer and Ising inter-dimer interactions in a magnetic field is considered by a rigorous approach. The model conserves the z-component of total spin on vertical Heisenberg bonds and this property is used to calculate exactly the partition function using the transfer-matrix method. We have found the ground-state phase diagram of the given model in a magnetic field as well as the macroscopic degeneracy along field-induced transitions accompanied with the magnetization jumps. The model exhibits two intermediate fractional plateaux at one-quarter and one-half of the saturation magnetization. We have examined the effect of the exchange anisotropy in the XXZ Heisenberg intra-dimer interaction on the ground state. It is shown that the one-quarter and one-half plateaux may disappear from the magnetization curve for the ferromagnetic Heisenberg intra-dimer interaction. We have also rigorously studied the effect of frustrated interactions on the thermodynamic and magnetic properties of the model and show how the macroscopic degeneracy of the ground state is reflected in the low-temperature behavior of the magnetization, entropy and specific heat. A possibility of observing enhanced magnetocaloric effect during the adiabatic demagnetization is discussed in detail.

[[worker]] Minor. Identique au C. Christi typique, mais noir avec la moitié inférieure des hanches, les anneaux fémoraux, l'extrémité des tibias, la base et l'extrémité des scapes, le bord postérieur des segments abdominaux ainsi que la bouche d'un jaune pâle, testacé ou blanchâtre. Les tarses, les funicules et en partie les mandibules et quelques autres régions brunâtres. Le thorax est un peu plus court et un peu plus voûté, avec les sutures un peu plus distinctes; il prend un aspect assez bossu. Le bord antérieur de l'épistome est un peu plus convexe et avancé au milieu. Surtout le front avec les arêtes frontales est moins élevé. Mais tout le reste est identique, et malgré la couleur si contrastante, je ne puis faire de ces exemplaires qu'une race.
[[worker]] Major (non encore décrite). Longueur environ 7 mill. (peut-être n'est-ce pas la [[worker]] maxima). Mandibules à bord terminal assez court, armées de six dents, comme chez la [[worker]] minor. Tête excavée et élargie derrière, en forme de trapèze (sans les mandibules), à côtés médiocre- ment mais distinctement convexes, longue de 1,80 et large de 1,65 mill. Les palpes maxillaires n'atteignent pas le trou occipital. Mésonotum plus fortement voûté que chez la [[worker]] minor. Ecaille conformée comme chez la [[worker]] minor, mais plus haute et bien plus large qu'épaisse. Tout le reste comme chez la [[worker]] minor. C'est à peine si la sculpture du devant de la tête est un peu plus forte (réticulée-ponctuée entre les yeux et les arêtes frontales). Yeux situés un peu en arrière du milieu des côtés de la tête, de même que chez la [[worker]] minor. Tibias faiblement comprimés, presque cylindriques.
De la même localité et de la même source que le précédent. Les exemplaires du Père Camboué ont été trouvés près d'Antananarivô, dans les bambous de la forêt d'Analamainty.
Cette race ressemble d'aspect et de couleur à la Mayria madagascariensis, dont elle diffère par la forme de son abdomen, par l'insertion de ses antennes, par ses arêtes frontales, etc.
Le C. Christi i. sp. est une race de couleur distincte du C. Foersteri; la différence de couleur n'a rien de commun avec l'âge des individus.

Study of a Market Model with Conservative Exchanges on Complex Networks

description: Many models of market dynamics make use of the idea of conservative wealth exchanges among economic agents. A few years ago an exchange model using extremal dynamics was developed and a very interesting result was obtained: a self-generated minimum wealth or poverty line. On the other hand, the wealth distribution exhibited an exponential shape as a function of the square of the wealth. These results have been obtained both considering exchanges between nearest neighbors or in a mean field scheme. In the present paper we study the effect of distributing the agents on a complex network. We have considered archetypical complex networks: Erdös-Rényi random networks and scale-free networks. The presence of a poverty line with finite wealth is preserved but spatial correlations are important, particularly between the degree of the node and the wealth. We present a detailed study of the correlations, as well as the changes in the Gini coefficient, that measures the inequality, as a function of the type and average degree of the considered networks.

description: In this paper, we propose a so-called probabilistic non-local means (PNLM) method for image denoising. Our main contributions are: 1) we point out defects of the weight function used in the classic NLM; 2) we successfully derive all theoretical statistics of patch-wise differences for Gaussian noise; and 3) we employ this prior information and formulate the probabilistic weights truly reflecting the similarity between two noisy patches. The probabilistic nature of the new weight function also provides a theoretical basis to choose thresholds rejecting dissimilar patches for fast computations. Our simulation results indicate the PNLM outperforms the classic NLM and many NLM recent variants in terms of peak signal noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) index. Encouraging improvements are also found when we replace the NLM weights with the probabilistic weights in tested NLM variants.

description: In this chapter we describe a selection of mathematical techniques and results that suggest interesting links between the theory of gratings and the theory of homogenization, including a brief introduction to the latter. By no means do we purport to imply that homogenization theory is an exclusive method for studying gratings, neither do we hope to be exhaustive in our choice of topics within the subject of homogenization. Our preferences here are motivated most of all by our own latest research, and by our outlook to the future interactions between these two subjects. We have also attempted, in what follows, to contrast the "classical" homogenization (Section 11.1.2), which is well suited for the description of composites as we have known them since their advent until about a decade ago, and the "non-standard" approaches, high-frequency homogenization (Section 11.2) and high-contrast homogenization (Section 11.3), which have been developing in close relation to the study of photonic crystals and metamaterials, which exhibit properties unseen in conventional composite media, such as negative refraction allowing for super-lensing through a flat heterogeneous lens, and cloaking, which considerably reduces the scattering by finite size objects (invisibility) in certain frequency range. These novel electromagnetic paradigms have renewed the interest of physicists and applied mathematicians alike in the theory of gratings.

description: The masses of the supermassive black-holes found in galaxy bulges are correlated with a multitude of galaxy properties, leading to suggestions that galaxies and black-holes may evolve together. The number of reliably measured black-hole masses is small, and the number of methods for measuring them is limited, holding back attempts to understand this co-evolution. Directly measuring black-hole masses is currently possible with stellar kinematics (in early-type galaxies), ionised-gas kinematics (in some spiral and early-type galaxies) and in rare objects which have central maser emission. Here we report that by modelling the effect of a black-hole on the kinematics of molecular gas it is possible to fit interferometric observations of CO emission and thereby accurately estimate black hole masses. We study the dynamics of the gas in the early-type galaxy NGC4526, and obtain a best fit which requires the presence of a central dark-object of 4.5(+4.2-3.0)x10^8 Msun (3 sigma confidence limit). With next generation mm-interferometers (e.g. ALMA) these observations could be reproduced in galaxies out to 75 megaparsecs in less the 5 hours of observing time. The use of molecular gas as a kinematic tracer should thus allow one to estimate black-hole masses in hundreds of galaxies in the local universe, many more than accessible with current techniques.

description: The evolution of a system induced by counter-diabatic driving mimics the adiabatic dynamics without the requirement of slow driving. Engineering it involves diagonalizing the instantaneous Hamiltonian of the system and results in the need of auxiliary non-local interactions for matter-waves. Here experimentally realizable driving protocols are found for a large class of single-particle, many-body, and non-linear systems without demanding the spectral properties as an input. The method is applied to the fast decompression of Bose-Einstein condensates in different trapping potentials.

description: We report on the first detection of the theoretically-predicted rare phenomenon of multiple parsec-scale imaging of an active galactic nucleus induced by refractive effects due to localized foreground electron density enhancements, e.g., in an AU-scale plasma lens(es) in the ionized component of the Galactic interstellar medium. We detected multiple imaging in the low galactic latitude (b=-2 deg) quasar 2023+335 from the 15.4 GHz MOJAVE observations when the source was undergoing an ESE. While the parsec-scale jet of the source normally extends along PA -20 deg, in the 28 May 2009 and 23 July 2009 images a highly significant multi-component pattern of secondary images is stretched out nearly along the constant galactic latitude line with a local PA 40 deg, indicating that the direction of relative motion of the plasma lens is close to orbital. Weaker but still detectable imaging patterns at similar position angles are sporadically manifest at several other epochs. Modeling the ESE that occurred in early 2009 and lasted ~0.14 yr, we determined that the foreground screen has a double-lens structure, with proper motion (~6.8 mas/yr), and angular size (~0.27 mas). We also found that the angular separation between the two brightest sub-images roughly follows a wavelength-squared dependence expected from plasma scattering. Furthermore, by analyzing archival non-simultaneous VLBA observations covering a wide frequency range from 1.4 to 86 GHz, we found that the scattered angular size of the VLBI core follows a $ν^{-1.89}$ dependence, implying the presence of a turbulent, refractive dominated scattering screen that has a confined structure or is truncated transverse to the line of sight toward 2023+335.

description: The production of the stable isotope Li-6 in standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis has recently attracted much interest. Recent observations in metal-poor stars suggest that a cosmological Li-6 plateau may exist. If true, this plateau would come in addition to the well-known Spite plateau of Li-7 abundances and would point to a predominantly primordial origin of Li-6, contrary to the results of standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis calculations. Therefore, the nuclear physics underlying Big Bang Li-6 production must be revisited. The main production channel for Li-6 in the Big Bang is the 2H(alpha,gamma)6Li reaction. The present work reports on neutron-induced effects in a high-purity germanium detector that were encountered in a new study of this reaction. In the experiment, an α-beam from the underground accelerator LUNA in Gran Sasso, Italy, and a windowless deuterium gas target are used. A low neutron flux is induced by energetic deuterons from elastic scattering and, subsequently, the 2H(d,n)3He reaction. Due to the ultra-low laboratory neutron background at LUNA, the effect of this weak flux of 2-3 MeV neutrons on well-shielded high-purity germanium detectors has been studied in detail. Data have been taken at 280 and 400 keV alpha-beam energy and for comparison also using an americium-beryllium neutron source.

Weighted skewness and kurtosis unbiased by sample size

Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)

description: Central moments and cumulants are often employed to characterize the distribution of data. The skewness and kurtosis are particularly useful for the detection of outliers, the assessment of departures from normally distributed data, automated classification techniques and other applications. Robust definitions of higher order moments are more stable but might miss characteristic features of the data, as in the case of astronomical time series with rare events like stellar bursts or eclipses from binary systems. Weighting can help identify reliable measurements from uncertain or spurious outliers, so unbiased estimates of the weighted skewness and kurtosis moments and cumulants, corrected for sample-size biases, are provided under the assumption of independent data. The comparison of biased and unbiased weighted estimators is illustrated with simulations as a function of sample size, employing different data distributions and weighting schemes.

title: Measuring Vegetation Heights and Their Seasonal Changes in the Western Namibian Savanna Using Spaceborne Lidars

description: The Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) with its land and vegetation height data product (ATL08), and Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) with its terrain elevation and height metrics data product (GEDI Level 2A) missions have great potential to globally map ground and canopy heights. Canopy height is a key factor in estimating above-ground biomass and its seasonal changes; these satellite missions can also improve estimated above-ground carbon stocks. This study presents a novel Sparse Vegetation Detection Algorithm (SVDA) which uses ICESat-2 (ATL03, geolocated photons) data to map tree and vegetation heights in a sparsely vegetated savanna ecosystem. The SVDA consists of three main steps: First, noise photons are filtered using the signal confidence flag from ATL03 data and local point statistics. Second, we classify ground photons based on photon height percentiles. Third, tree and grass photons are classified based on the number of neighbors. We validated tree heights with field measurements (n = 55), finding a root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 1.82 m using SVDA, GEDI Level 2A (Geolocated Elevation and Height Metrics product): 1.33 m, and ATL08: 5.59 m. Our results indicate that the SVDA is effective in identifying canopy photons in savanna ecosystems, where ATL08 performs poorly. We further identify seasonal vegetation height changes with an emphasis on vegetation below 3 m; widespread height changes in this class from two wet-dry cycles show maximum seasonal changes of 1 m, possibly related to seasonal grass-height differences. Our study shows the difficulties of vegetation measurements in savanna ecosystems but provides the first estimates of seasonal biomass changes.

description: Within the ExploreData project, GESIS has brought many of its data collections into a common metadata database to support the search and re-use of documentation using the DDI-Lifecycle 3.2 standard. This effort focused on fully documented studies with a codebook, variable report, and complete questionnaire documentation available. In addition to those, there are many more research data collections in the archive that only have documentation at the dataset level available, i.e. variable names, labels, and value labels. With the convert2xml project, we aimed to bring these studies into the same DDI-Lifecycle 3.2 standard and include them into the metadata database. The current implementation is a Python script that reads SPSS sav files and exports the metadata into DDI 3.2 XML files. It is integrated into the data archiving infrastructure and does automatically update new versions of any study when it is published. It supports English and German documentation, several versions of SPSS data files, and different encodings. Up to now, we have been able to include more than a thousand data files into the metadata database, making them available to the GESIS search for research data on our website.

description: We perform an extensive study of flavor observables in a 2HDM with generic Yukawa structure (the decoupling limit of the MSSM). We examine the effects in flavor physics and constrain the model both from tree-level processes and loop-observables. The free parameters of the model are the heavy Higgs mass, tan(β) and the "non-holomorphic" Yukawa couplings ε^f_ij (f=u,d,\ell). In our analysis we constrain the elements ε^f_ij in various ways: In a first step we give order of magnitude constraints on ε^f_ij from 't Hooft's naturalness criterion. Then we constrain the Yukawa structure of the type-III 2HDM from tree-level FCNC processes (B_s,d->μ^+μ^-, τ^-->μ^-μ^+μ^-, etc.) and observe that all flavor off-diagonal elements except ε^u_32,31 and ε^u_23,13 must be very small in order to satisfy the experimental bounds. In a third step, we consider Higgs mediated loop contributions to FCNC processes (b->s,dγ, μ->eγ, etc.) finding that also ε^u_13 and ε^u_23 must be very small, while the bounds on ε^u_31 and ε^u_32 are especially weak. Taking into account the constraints from FCNC processes we study the possible size of contributions from tree-level charged Higgs exchange. Interestingly, the unconstrained elements ε^u_{32,31} enter directly the branching ratios for B->τν, B->Dτνand B->D*τνand we show that the deviations from the SM predictions in these processes can be explained simultaneously. We give upper limits on the branching ratios of the lepton flavor-violating neutral B meson decays and correlate the radiative lepton decays to the corresponding neutral current lepton decays (τ^- ->μ^-μ^+μ^-, τ^- ->e^-μ^+μ^- and μ^- ->e^-e^+e^-). A detailed appendix contains all relevant information for the considered processes for general scalar-fermion-fermion couplings.

description: Recent studies have experienced the acceleration of convergence in Markov chain Monte Carlo methods implemented by the systems without detailed balance condition (DBC). However, such advantage of the violation of DBC has not been confirmed in general. We investigate the effect of the absence of DBC on the convergence toward equilibrium. Surprisingly, it is shown that the DBC violation always makes the relaxation faster. Our result implies the existence of a kind of thermodynamic inequality that connects the nonequilibrium process relaxing toward steady state with the relaxation process which has the same probability distribution as its equilibrium state.

description: Polarized and $G$-polarized CR manifolds are smooth manifolds endowed with a double structure: a real foliation $\Cal F$ (given by the action of a Lie group $G$ in the $G$-polarized case) and a transverse CR distribution $(E,J)$. Polarized means that $(E,J)$ is roughly speaking invariant by $\Cal F$. Both structures are therefore linked up. The interplay between them gives to polarized CR-manifolds a very rich geometry. In this paper, we study the properties of polarized and $G$-polarized manifolds, putting special emphasis on their deformations.

description: Spin-transfer ferromagnetic resonance (ST-FMR) in symmetric magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with a varied thickness of the MgO tunnel barrier (0.75 nm < $t_{MgO}$ < 1.05 nm) is studied using the spin-torque diode effect. The application of an RF current into nanosized MTJs generates a DC mixing voltage across the device when the frequency is in resonance with the resistance oscillations arising from the spin transfer torque. Magnetization precession in the free and reference layers of the MTJs is analyzed by comparing ST-FMR signals with macrospin and micromagnetic simulations. From ST-FMR spectra at different DC bias voltage, the in-plane and perpendicular torkances are derived. The experiments and free-electron model calculations show that the absolute torque values are independent of tunnel barrier thickness. The influence of coupling between the free and reference layer of the MTJs on the ST-FMR signals and the derived torkances are discussed.

description: With the significantly growing demand for electric vehicles and more electric aircrafts, pure electric drive systems will be used as an alternative to internal combustion engines. For this target, a more-flexible production process is required in the short term. Lightweight electrical machines with high power density are emerging as feasible solution to combine between high performance and lower environmental impact.
 Metal additive manufacturing (AM) has been growing remarkably in the past few years. Thanks to the advantages of unmatched flexibility and zero material waste, this clean technology opens the door for new design solutions with greater material efficiency, which are not possible through conventional machining techniques. With the ultimate freedom in geometry, AM enables new possibilities in the design of electrical machines. This includes the 3D printing of passive parts such as housing, rotor shaft, bearings, and heat exchangers for direct cooling inside slots. This also has extended to the 3D printing of active parts such as the core and the windings.
 In this study, the main focus is on AM for electrical machines, combining light-weight material with high electromagnetic performance especially at high operating frequencies. This is very interesting for the automation industry, since there is a trend to go to high speeds and high numbers of poles, leading to high frequencies.
Emergence of Connectivity Motifs in Networks of Model Neurons with Short- and Long-term Plastic Synapses

description: Recent evidence in rodent cerebral cortex and olfactory bulb suggests that short-term dynamics of excitatory synaptic transmission is correlated to stereotypical connectivity motifs. It was observed that neurons with short-term facilitating synapses form predominantly reciprocal pairwise connections, while neurons with short-term depressing synapses form unidirectional pairwise connections. The cause of these structural differences in synaptic microcircuits is unknown. We propose that these connectivity motifs emerge from the interactions between short-term synaptic dynamics (SD) and long-term spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP). While the impact of STDP on SD was shown in vitro, the mutual interactions between STDP and SD in large networks are still the subject of intense research. We formulate a computational model by combining SD and STDP, which captures faithfully short- and long-term dependence on both spike times and frequency. As a proof of concept, we simulate recurrent networks of spiking neurons with random initial connection efficacies and where synapses are either all short-term facilitating or all depressing. For identical background inputs, and as a direct consequence of internally generated activity, we find that networks with depressing synapses evolve unidirectional connectivity motifs, while networks with facilitating synapses evolve reciprocal connectivity motifs. This holds for heterogeneous networks including both facilitating and depressing synapses. Our study highlights the conditions under which SD-STDP might the correlation between facilitation and reciprocal connectivity motifs, as well as between depression and unidirectional motifs. We further suggest experiments for the validation of the proposed mechanism.

description: As a unique feature, the $^{229}$Th nucleus has an isomeric transition in the vacuum ultraviolet that can be accessed by optical lasers. The interference effects occurring in the interaction between coherent optical light and an ensemble of $^{229}$Th nuclei are investigated theoretically. We consider the scenario of nuclei doped in vacuum ultraviolet-vacuum ultraviolet transparent crystals and take into account the effect of different doping sites and therefore different lattice fields that broaden the nuclear transition width. This effect is shown to come in interplay with interference effects due to the hyperfine splitting of the ground and isomeric nuclear states. We investigate possible experimentally available situations involving two-, three- and four-level schemes of quadrupole sublevels of the ground and isomeric nuclear states coupling to one or two coherent fields. Specific configurations which offer clear signatures of the isomer excitation advantageous for the more precise experimental determination of the transition energy are identified. Furthermore, it is shown that population trapping into the isomeric state can be achieved. This paves the way for further nuclear quantum optics applications with $^{229}$Th such as nuclear coherent control.
