description: Near-infrared images of the luminous, high redshift (z=2.1108) radio loud quasar 4C+09.17 reveal a complex structure. The quasar (K=15.76 mag) is surrounded by three "companion" objects having 17.9< K < 20.2 mag at radii of 1.7" < r < 2.9", as well as bright, diffuse emission. The brightest companion has a redshift of z=0.8384 (Lehnert & Becker 1997) and its optical-infrared colors (Lehnert et al. 1997) are consistent with a late-type spiral galaxy at this redshift with a luminosity of about 2L*. This object is likely the galaxy responsible for the strongest MgII absorption line system seen in the spectrum of 4C+09.17 by Barthel et al. (1990). Redshifts are not available for the remaining two companions. The red colors of the second brightest companion appear most consistent with a high redshift star-forming galaxy at z > 1.5. If this object is at the redshift of 4C +09.17 it has a luminosity of about 7L*. The faintest companion has colors which are unlike those expected from either a spiral or an E/S0 galaxy at any redshift associated with the 4C+09.17 system. Since this object lies along the same direction as the radio jet/lobe of 4C+09.17, as well as the extended Ly-alpha emission mapped by Heckman et al. (1991) we suggest that this component can be explained as a combination of strong line emission and scattered QSO light. The resolved, diffuse emission surrounding 4C+09.17 is bright, K~17.0 mag, and about one magnitude redder in J-K than the quasar. If this emission is starlight, a very luminous elliptical host galaxy is implied for 4C+09.17. Scattered and reddened AGN light, emission line gas, and flux from absorbing galaxies along the line of sight may all contribute to this emission.

description: Objectives: We evaluated memory responses and antibody persistence to diphtheria-toxoid, tetanus-toxoid, whole-cell-pertussis (DTwP), and Hepatitis-B vaccines in HIV-unexposed, HIV-exposed-uninfected and HIV-infected children previously randomized to initiate time-limited ART at 6–10 weeks (ART-Immed) or when clinically/immunologically indicated (ART-Def). Methods: All children received DTwP booster at 15–18 months. Antibodies were measured for pertussis-toxoid, filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA), diphtheria-toxoid, tetanus-toxoid, and hepatitis-B prior to booster, 1–2 weeks post-booster and at 24 months of age. Results: Pre-booster antibody GMC were lower in HIV-infected groups than HIV-unexposed children for all epitopes. Post-booster and at 24 months of age, the ART-Def group had lower GMCs and antibody proportion ≥0.1 IU/ml for tetanus-toxoid and diphtheria-toxoid compared to HIV-unexposed children. At 24 months of age, the ART-Immed group had higher GMCs, and more likely to maintain antibody titres ≥1.0 IU/ml to tetanus-toxoid and diphtheria-toxoid compared to HIV-unexposed children. Compared to HIV-unexposed children, at 15 and 24 months of age, persistence of antibody to HBsAg of ≥10 mIU/ml was similar in the ART-Immed group but lower among the ART-Def group. Antibody kinetics indicated more robust memory responses in HIV-exposed-uninfected than HIV-unexposed children to diphtheria-toxoid and wP. Conclusion: HIV-infected children not on ART at primary vaccination had poorer memory responses, whereas HIV-exposed-uninfected children mounted robust memory responses.

description: Four-fermion processes with a particle lost in the beam pipe are studied at LEP to perform precision tests of the electroweak theory. Leading higher-order QED corrections to such processes are analyzed within the framework of the Structure Functions (SF) approach. The energy scale entering the QED SF is determined by inspection of the soft and collinear limit of the O(alpha) radiative corrections to the four-fermion final states, paying particular attention to the process of single-W production. Numerical predictions are shown in realistic situations for LEP experiments and compared with existing results. A Monte Carlo event generator, including exact tree-level matrix elements, vacuum polarization, higher-order leading QED corrections and anomalous trilinear gauge couplings, is presented.

description: Learning time-evolving objects such as multivariate time series and dynamic networks requires the development of novel knowledge representation mechanisms and neural network architectures, which allow for capturing implicit time-dependent information contained in the data. Such information is typically not directly observed but plays a key role in the learning task performance. In turn, lack of time dimension in knowledge encoding mechanisms for time-dependent data leads to frequent model updates, poor learning performance, and, as a result, subpar decision-making. Here we propose a new approach to a time-aware knowledge representation mechanism that notably focuses on implicit time-dependent topological information along multiple geometric dimensions. In particular, we propose a new approach, named \textit{Temporal MultiPersistence} (TMP), which produces multidimensional topological fingerprints of the data by using the existing single parameter topological summaries. The main idea behind TMP is to merge the two newest directions in topological representation learning, that is, multi-persistence which simultaneously describes data shape evolution along multiple key parameters, and zigzag persistence to enable us to extract the most salient data shape information over time. We derive theoretical guarantees of TMP vectorizations and show its utility, in application to forecasting on benchmark traffic flow, Ethereum blockchain, and electrocardiogram datasets, demonstrating the competitive performance, especially, in scenarios of limited data records. In addition, our TMP method improves the computational efficiency of the state-of-the-art multipersistence summaries up to 59.5 times.

description: Many important processes affecting the Earth's climate are determined by the physical properties of seawater. Desalination of seawater is a significant source of drinking wate.Since the physical properties of seawater governing these processes depend on the molecular interactions among its components, a deeper knowledge of seawater at the molecular level is needed. However MD studies reporting the physical properties of seawater are currently lacking. This is probably due to the usual perception of the seawater composition being too complex to approach.This point of view ignores the fact that physical properties of seawater are dependent on a single parameter representing the composition, namely the salinity. This is because the relative proportions of any two major constituents of seasalt are always the same. An obstacle to performing MD simulations of seawater could have been the unavailability of a satisfactory force field representing the interactions between water molecules and dissolved substances. This drawback has recently been overcome with the proposal of the Madrid-2019 FF.Here we show for the first time that MD simulations of seawater are feasible. We have performed MD simulations of a system, the composition of which is close to the average composition of standard seawater and with the molecular interactions given by the Madrid-2019 force field. We are able to provide quantitative or semiquantitative predictions for a number of relevant physical properties of seawater for temperatures and salinities from the oceanographic range to those relevant to desalination processes. The computed magnitudes include static (density), dynamical (viscosity and diffusion coefficients), structural (ionic hydration, ion-ion distribution functions) and interfacial (surface tension) properties.

description: Psychological problems may significantly impact a person's overall health and quality of life. It is essential for efficient management and assistance to comprehend the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and course of therapy of various disorders. In this thorough review, we will look at the intricacies of psychological disorders, investigating the underlying causes that lead to their emergence, the diverse range of symptoms that people can encounter, the methods used by mental health practitioners to diagnose them, and the range of patient treatments. Think about these circumstances. Gaining a deeper comprehension of these significant challenges will enable us to better serve individuals impacted by psychological diseases and endeavor to increase mental health awareness.

Complex and multifaceted, psychological diseases are frequently brought on by a confluence of psychological, environmental, and genetic variables. These illnesses may arise mostly as a result of genetic susceptibility, early life events, trauma, and persistent stress. For psychiatric problems to be properly addressed and managed, it is imperative to comprehend these underlying causes.

description: If light sterile neutrinos are needed to understand the neutrino puzzles, as is currently indicated, a major theoretical challenge is to understand why its mass is so small. It is a more serious problem than understanding the small mass of the familiar neutrinos. We discuss a new way to solve this problem by identifying the sterile neutrino as gauge neutral fermion propagating in the bulk of a higher dimensional theory, with bulk size of order of a millimeter. The smallness of its mass is then a consequence of the size of the extra dimension and does not need the introduction of new symmetries. We present a realistic model for neutrino masses and mixings that implements this idea.

description: In hyperspectral sparse unmixing, a successful approach employs spectral bundles to address the variability of the endmembers in the spatial domain. However, the regularization penalties usually employed aggregate substantial computational complexity, and the solutions are very noise-sensitive. We generalize a multiscale spatial regularization approach to solve the unmixing problem by incorporating group sparsity-inducing mixed norms. Then, we propose a noise-robust method that can take advantage of the bundle structure to deal with endmember variability while ensuring inter- and intra-class sparsity in abundance estimation with reasonable computational cost. We also present a general heuristic to select the \emph{most representative} abundance estimation over multiple runs of the unmixing process, yielding a solution that is robust and highly reproducible. Experiments illustrate the robustness and consistency of the results when compared to related methods.

If compared with classical QCD formulae the obtained results are identical for the unpolarized and different for polarized sum rules, that can be explained as the influence of the finite quark mass effects on NLO QCD corrections. The explicit expression for one-loop NLO QCD contribution to the structure function g_2 is presented.

description: We analyze accuracy of different low-dimensional reductions of the collective dynamics in large populations of coupled phase oscillators with intrinsic noise. Three approximations are considered: (i) the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, (ii) the Gaussian ansatz, and (iii) a two-cumulant truncation of the circular cumulant representation of the original system's dynamics. For the latter we suggest a closure, which makes the truncation, for small noise, a rigorous first-order correction to the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, and simultaneously is a generalization of the Gaussian ansatz. The Kuramoto model with intrinsic noise, and the population of identical noisy active rotators in excitable states with the Kuramoto-type coupling, are considered as examples to test validity of these approximations. For all considered cases, the Gaussian ansatz is found to be more accurate than the Ott-Antonsen one for high-synchrony states only. The two-cumulant approximation is always superior to both other approximations.

description: In this paper we show the results of a large set of N-body simulations modelling the evolution of globular clusters driven by relaxation,stellar evolution,disk shocking and including the effects of the tidal field of the Galaxy. We investigate the evolution of multi-mass models with a power-law initial mass function (IMF) starting with different initial masses, concentrations, slopes of the IMF and located at different galactocentric distances. We show to what extent the effects of the various evolutionary processes alter the shape of the IMF and to what extent these changes depend on the position of the cluster in the Galaxy. Both the changes in the global mass function and in the local one (measured at different distances from the cluster center) are investigated showing whether and where the local mass function keeps memory of the IMF and where it provides a good indication of the current global mass function. The evolution of the population of white dwarfs is also followed in detail and we supply an estimate of the fraction of the current value of the total mass expected to be in white dwarfs depending on the main initial conditions for the cluster (mass and position in the Galaxy).Simple analytical expression by which it is possible to calculate the main quantities of interest (total mass, fraction of white dwarfs, slope of the mass function) at any time t for a larger number of different initial conditions than those investigated numerically have been derived.

description: We consider field theories arising from a large number of D3-branes near singularities in F-theory. We study the theories at various conformal points, and compute, using their conjectured string theory duals, their large $N$ spectrum of chiral primary operators. This includes, as expected, operators of fractional conformal dimensions for the theory at Argyres-Douglas points. Additional operators, which are charged under the (sometimes exceptional) global symmetries of these theories, come from the 7-branes. In the case of a $D_4$ singularity we compare our results with field theory and find agreement for large $N$. Finally, we consider deformations away from the conformal points, which involve finding new supergravity solutions for the geometry produced by the 3-branes in the 7-brane background. We also discuss 3-branes in a general background.

description: In this work, a force field for several ions in water is proposed. In particular, we consider the cations Li$^+$ , Na$^+$ , K$^+$, Mg$^{2+}$, Ca$^{2+}$ and the anions Cl$^-$, and SO$_4^{2-}$ . These ions were selected as they appear in the composition of seawater, and they are also found in biological systems. The force field proposed (denoted as Madrid-2019) is nonpolarizable, and both water molecules and sulfate anions are rigid. For water, we use the TIP4P/2005 model. The main idea behind this work is to further explore the possibility of using scaled charges for describing ionic solutions. Monovalent and divalent ions are modeled using charges of 0.85 and 1.7, respectively (in electron units). The model allows a very accurate description of the densities of the solutions up to high concentrations. It also gives good predictions of viscosities up to 3 m concentrations. Calculated structural properties are also in reasonable agreement with the experiment. We have checked that no crystallization occurred in the simulations at concentrations similar to the solubility limit. A test for ternary mixtures shows that the force field provides excellent performance at an affordable computer cost. In summary, the use of scaled charges, which could be regarded as an effective and simple way of accounting for polarization (at least to a certain extend), improves the overall description of ionic systems in water. However, for purely ionic systems, scaled charges will not adequately describe neither the solid nor the melt.

This is the promising title of a book by Yochai Benkler, in which he attempts to trace how the cooperative and reciprocity-intensive social transactional networks – as value-creating background structures – are driving the transformation of markets. The title promises a bit more than it delivers, because a mature institutional economic explanation of how decentralized, cooperative working relationships influence the governance of markets falls short of expectations. Benkler does not find a satisfactory conceptual answer to one of his crucial observations: How can it be explained that the literature on the gift economy is considered marginal in economics, even though the governance architecture of a modern economy is permeated by structures of give-and-take?

description: Chimeras and branching are two archetypical complex phenomena that appear in many physical systems; because of their different intrinsic dynamics, they delineate opposite non-trivial limits in the complexity of wave motion and present severe challenges in predicting chaotic and singular behavior in extended physical systems. We report on the long-term forecasting capability of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and reservoir computing (RC) recurrent neural networks, when they are applied to the spatiotemporal evolution of turbulent chimeras in simulated arrays of coupled superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) or lasers, and branching in the electronic flow of two-dimensional graphene with random potential. We propose a new method in which we assign one LSTM network to each system node except for "observer" nodes which provide continual "ground truth" measurements as input; we refer to this method as "Observer LSTM" (OLSTM). We demonstrate that even a small number of observers greatly improves the data-driven (model-free) long-term forecasting capability of the LSTM networks and provide the framework for a consistent comparison between the RC and LSTM methods. We find that RC requires smaller training datasets than OLSTMs, but the latter requires fewer observers. Both methods are benchmarked against Feed-Forward neural networks (FNNs), also trained to make predictions with observers (OFNNs).

description: Oscillations of neutrinos $ν_L \leftrightarrow ν_R$ in presence of an arbitrary electromagnetic field are considered. We introduce the Hamiltonian for the neutrino spin evolution equation that accounts for possible effects of interaction of neutrino magnetic $μ$ and electric $ε$ dipole moments with the transversal (in respect to the neutrino momentum) and also the longitudinal components of electromagnetic field. Using this Hamiltonian we predict the new types of resonances in the neutrino oscillations $ν_L \leftrightarrow ν_R$ in the presence of the field of an electromagnetic wave and in combination of an electromagnetic wave and constant magnetic field. The possible influence of the longitudinal magnetic field on neutrino oscillations is emphasized.
description: revised v4; 11 pages; significant revisions: (1) derivation of the Hamiltonian for the neutrino spin evolution in an electromangnetic field is included, (2) discussions of the influence of the longitudinal magnetic field on neutrino oscillations is also added.

description: For D=4 theories of a single U(1) gauge field strength coupled to gravity and matters, we show that the electric-magnetic duality can be formulated as an invariance of the actions. The symmetry is associated with duality rotation acting directly on the gauge field. The rotation is constructed in flat space, and an extension to curved spaces is also given. It is non-local and non-covariant, yet generates off-shell extended transformation of the field strength. The algebraic condition of Gaillard and Zumino turns out to be a necessary and sufficient condition for the invariance of actions. It may be used as a guiding principle in constructing self-dual actions in string and field theories.

description: We present the early release of the atlas of continuous gravitational waves covering frequencies from 20 Hz to 1500 Hz and spindowns from -5e-10 to 5e-10 Hz/s. Compared to the previous atlas release we have greatly expanded the parameter space, and we now also provide polarization-specific data - both for signal-to-noise ratios and for the upper limits. Continuous wave searches are computationally difficult and take a long time to complete. The atlas enables new searches to be performed using modest computing power. To allow new searches to start sooner, we are releasing this data early, before our followup stages have completed.

The wide binary fraction of solar-type stars: emergence of metallicity dependence at a < 200 AU

description: We combine a catalog of wide binaries constructed from Gaia DR2 with [Fe/H] abundances from wide-field spectroscopic surveys to quantify how the binary fraction varies with metallicity over separations $50 \lesssim s/{\rm AU} \lesssim 50,000$. At a given distance, the completeness of the catalog is independent of metallicity, making it straightforward to constrain intrinsic variation with [Fe/H]. The wide binary fraction is basically constant with [Fe/H] at large separations ($s \gtrsim 250$\,AU) but becomes quite rapidly anti-correlated with [Fe/H] at smaller separations: for $50 < s/{\rm AU} < 100$, the binary fraction at $\rm [Fe/H] = -1$ exceeds that at $\rm [Fe/H] = 0.5$ by a factor of 3, an anti-correlation almost as strong as that found for close binaries with $a < 10$ AU. Interpreted in terms of models where disk fragmentation is more efficient at low [Fe/H], our results suggest that $100 < a/{\rm AU} < 200$ is the separation below which a significant fraction of binaries formed via fragmentation of individual gravitationally unstable disks rather than through turbulent core fragmentation. We provide a public catalog of 8,407 binaries within 200 pc with spectroscopically-determined [Fe/H] for at least one component.

description: We report the discovery of a high-z quasar with unambiguous [OIII]5007 emission; PKS 1937-101 at redshift 3.8. This quasar, however, shows little evidence for rest-frame ultraviolet and optical FeII emission. It is thus shown that PKS 1937-101 does not belong to a class of super iron-rich high-z quasars reported by Elston, Thompson, & Hill (1994). The epoch of major star formation in the host galaxy is discussed briefly.

Largest temperature of the radiation era and its cosmological implications

description: The thermal history of the universe before the epoch of nucleosynthesis is unknown. The maximum temperature in the radiation-dominated era, which we will refer to as the reheat temperature, may have been as low as 0.7 MeV. In this paper we show that a low reheat temperature has important implications for many topics in cosmology. We show that weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) may be produced even if the reheat temperature is much smaller than the freeze-out temperature of the WIMP, and that the dependence of the present abundance on the mass and the annihilation cross section of the WIMP differs drastically from familiar results. We revisit predictions of the relic abundance and resulting model constraints of supersymmetric dark matter, axions, massive neutrinos, and other dark matter candidates, nucleosynthesis constraints on decaying particles, and leptogenesis by decay of superheavy particles. We find that the allowed parameter space of supersymmetric models is altered, removing the usual bounds on the mass spectrum; the cosmological bound on massive neutrinos is drastically changed, ruling out Dirac (Majorana) neutrino masses $m_ν$ only in the range 33 keV $\simlt m_ν\simlt$ 6 (5) MeV, which is significantly smaller from the the standard disallowed range 94 eV $\simlt m_ν\simlt$ 2 GeV (this implies that massive neutrinos may still play the role of either warm or cold dark matter); the cosmological upper bound on the Peccei-Quinn scale may be significantly increased to $ 10^{16}$GeV from the usually cited limit of about $10^{12}$GeV; and that efficient out-of-equilibrium GUT baryogenesis and/or leptogenesis can take place even if the reheat temperature is much smaller than the mass of the decaying superheavy particle.

Causal structure of evaporating black holes

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We offer a mathematically rigorous basis for the widely held suspicion that full black hole evaporation is in tension with predictability. Based on conditions expressing the global causal structure of evaporating black hole spacetimes, we prove two theorems in Lorentzian geometry showing that such spacetimes either fail to be causally simple or fail to be causally continuous. These theorems, when combined with recent results \cite{AM} on the causal structure of spacetimes with timelike boundary, bear significantly on the question of whether these spacetimes permit for a predictable evolution.

description: The EDGE-CALIFA survey provides spatially resolved optical integral field unit (IFU) and CO spectroscopy for 125 galaxies selected from the CALIFA Data Release 3 sample. The Extragalactic Database for Galaxy Evolution (EDGE) presents the spatially resolved products of the survey as pixel tables that reduce the oversampling in the original images and facilitate comparison of pixels from different images. By joining these pixel tables to lower dimensional tables that provide radial profiles, integrated spectra, or global properties, it is possible to investigate the dependence of local conditions on large-scale properties. The database is freely accessible and has been utilized in several publications. We illustrate the use of this database and highlight the effects of CO upper limits on the inferred slopes of the local scaling relations between stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR), and H$_2$ surface densities. We find that the correlation between H$_2$ and SFR surface density is the tightest among the three relations.
