PES Web-based Tutoria AI-driven P2P energy trading, Pt 3/4
Creators: Dawei Qiu;Shengrong Bu; Zhu Han
Publisher: name: IEEE
Year: 2025

Session two of a four part series, helps the audience to better understand the concepts of electrical clearance, the calculation of BIL, BSL, and insulation coordination. Most substations are located in fenced-off areas above ground. In cities substations may be constructed in buildings or underground. Energized conductors and connecting buswork within a substation or switchyard are usually bare (non-insulated) and are installed on insulators that provide insulation from the ground. Insulation from other energized and grounded objects is provided by proper air distances (clearances). Sufficient clearances among ground and various energized air-insulated equipment are required to prevent (minimize the probability of) sparkovers and flashovers which would disrupt the operation and integrity not only of the affected equipment but also of the entire or large parts of the electric power system. IEEE Std 1427-2020 “IEEE Guide for Recommended Electrical Clearances and Insulation Levels in Air Insulated Electrical Power Substations” provides the required information.
Session three of this web-based tutorial: Will provide a comprehensive overview of strategies for power system decarbonization, focusing on three key approaches: electric vehicles, microgrids, and peer-to-peer energy trading. It will explore the associated challenges and demonstrate how advanced techniques, including deep reinforcement learning and big data analytics, can be leveraged to address these challenges effectively. Session three will discuss: a. P2P energy trading for large-scale prosumers b. P2P energy trading for multi-vector microgrids c. P2P energy trading for multi-energy prosumers d. P2P joint energy and carbon trading
Classical spin contribution to the Tunnel Effect

description: Since the spin of real particles is of order of $\hbar$, it is difficult to distinguish in a quantum mechanical experiment involving spinning particles what part of the outcome is related to the spin contribution and what part is a pure quantum mechanical effect. We analyze in detail a classical model of a nonrelativistic spinning particle under the action of a potential barrier and compute numerically the crossing for different potentials. In this way it is shown that because of the spin structure there is a nonvanishing contribution to crossing for energies above a certain minimum value, even below the top of the potential barrier. Results are compared with the quantum tunnel effect.

Trichothyse perversa

description: Trichothyse perversa (Simon, 1914) comb. nov.
Poecilochroa perversa Simon, 1914: 184, 221, figs 395–396 (syntype ♂: FRANCE: date and collector unknown, repository unknown, probably MNHN—not examined).
Description. Male. For description of the male, see Simon (1914).
Female. Unknown.
Justification of transfer. The illustration of the palp provided in Simon (1914: fig. 395) is diagnostic and was used for comparison. Even though we did not examine the type of P. perversa, the original illustration of the RTA of the male palp of this species shows that it has a robust RTA with an apical bifurcation, as seen in all known male Trichothyse species, in contrast to Poecilochroa sensu stricto and Macarophaeus (cf. Simon 1914: fig. 395 and Simon 1914: fig. 398, Fage 1929: fig. 1, Di Franco 2001: figs 3–4, Levy 1999: fig. 10, 2009: fig. 45, Fomichev & Marusik 2021: fig. 23, and Figs 109–110, 112, 116–117 herein). We therefore propose the transfer of P. perversa to Trichothyse.
Distribution. Known only from France in Mediterranean Europe (Fig. 121).

description: ABSTRACT Dicationic diamidines, such as diminazene and pentamidine, are well-studied chemotherapeutic agents with significant activity against parasitic diseases. The in vitro activities of novel diamidine compounds against the Babesia divergens strains 1903B and 4201 were investigated. The most potent compound, a diphenyl furan, had a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) of 1.5 ng/ml. In a murine model, several test compounds were effective enough to cure mice infected with Babesia microti at a dose of 12.5 and/or 25 mg/kg of body weight given by the subcutaneous route for 4 days. The best antibabesial properties were exhibited by terphenyls, benzimidazoles, diphenyl furans, pentamidine, and pentamidine analogues.

description: 1. Naldemedine is a peripherally acting μ-opioid receptor antagonist for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation. 2. This phase 1 study investigated the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of naldemedine, following a single oral 2-mg dose of [oxadiazole-14C]-naldemedine or [carbonyl-14C]-naldemedine to 12 healthy adult male subjects. Pharmacokinetic assessments were performed on blood, urine and fecal samples collected at defined intervals. 3. Naldemedine was the major circulating component in plasma with a median Tmax of approximately 0.8–0.9 h and a geometric mean t1/2,z of approximately 11 h. Total systemic exposures, AUC, of metabolites nor-naldemedine were less abundant than those of naldemedine (9% or 13% of AUC of naldemedine) and 16.2% or 18.1% of naldemedine was excreted as unchanged in urine after administration of [oxadiazole-14C]-naldemedine or [carbonyl-14C]-naldemedine, respectively, and benzamidine was the major radioactive component after administration of [oxadiazole-14C]-naldemedine (32.5% of administered dose). Overall, the recovery of total radioactivity was 92% (57.3% in urine; 34.8% in feces) after administration of [oxadiazole-14C]-naldemedine and 85% (20.4% in urine; 64.3% in feces) after administration of [carbonyl-14C]-naldemedine. 4. Our findings suggest that naldemedine is mainly metabolized to nor-naldemedine. Naldemedine was rapidly absorbed and well tolerated, with no major safety signals observed.

description: We study the performances of the two-stage non-eliminating procedure of Bechhofer, Dunnett and Sobel (1954), the two-stage eliminating procedure of Gupta and Kim (1984) and the multi-stage eliminating procedure of Paulson (1964) as modified by Hartman (1990) for selecting the normal population which has the largest mean when the common variance is unknown. Constants to implement the procedures are provided. All of these procedures are open and guarantee the indifference-zone probability requirement of Bechhofter (1954). The following performance characteristics are estimated by Monte Carlo sampling: the achieved probability of a correct selection, the expected number of vector-observations and the expected total number of observations to termination of experimentation. The critical role of the common initial sample size per population is discussed. Guidance is provided as to which procedure to use in different environments.

Description. Male and female. For description of the male and female, see Levy (1999, 2009) and Sankaran et al. (2020).
Justification of transfer. An examination of the holotype of P. poonaensis in a recent paper (Sankaran et al. 2020), as well as good illustrations of male and female genitalia available in Levy (1999: figs 17–18, 2009: figs 44–45), Domènech et al. (2023: fig. 1A–B) and Bosmans & Gavalas (2023: fig. 25B–C), showed that it has all of the diagnostic features of Trichothyse species, although at the time the association with this genus was unclear due to its distribution range. The male palp is typical of male Trichothyse species, as described for T. antineae comb. nov. above, and the epigyne has a small median atrium, as well as a vulva with features as described for T. jodhpurensis comb. nov. above (cf. Figs 1–20, 54–57, 109–119 and Levy 1999: figs 17–18, 2009: 44–45). Based on the similarity in genitalic structure and somatic morphology of this species to Trichothyse, we propose the transfer of P. poonaensis to Trichothyse.
Distribution. Known from Cyprus, Greece, India, Israel, Portugal, Spain (Fig. 121).

 Basionym of: Silene quadrifida (L.) L. (1759); Lychnis quadridentata L. (1774), nom. illeg.
 Lectotype (Melzheimer & Polatschek in Phyton (Horn) 31: 285. 1992): [icon] " Caryophyllus minimus humilis alter exoticus flore candido amoeno " in Plantin, Pl. Stirp. Icon.: 445. 1581.
 Current name:  Silene quadrifida  (L.) L. (Caryophyllaceae).
 Note: Juel (in Nova Acta Reg. Soc. Sci. Upsal., Ser. IV, 5(7): 72-73. 1923) provided an extensive discussion around the name, and particularly the Burser material, which was evidently the source of Linnaeus’ "Habitat in Styriae monte ad oppidum Eisenertz". However, he does not appear to refer to the Burser material as the type. Walters (in Feddes Repert. 69: 47. 1964) stated that Dandy had advised him that the (unspecified) type of C. quadrifidus was identifiable as S. alpestris Jacq., and Walters therefore recommended that C. quadrifidus be rejected as a nomen ambiguum. Rauschert (in Feddes Repert. 79: 415. 1969) also discussed the name, though apparently without indicating a type himself.
 However, Melzheimer & Polatschek (in Phyton (Horn) 31: 284. 1992) subsequently used the name S. quadrifidus (L.) L. in the sense of S. alpestris, having formally chosen the cited Plantin plate as a neotype. As the plate was cited by Linnaeus, it is in fact a lectotype (treated as a correctable error under Art. 9.8).

description: Observations of high-redshift quasars indicate that super massive black holes (SMBHs) with masses greater than ${\sim}10^9~M_\odot$ were assembled within the first billion years after the Big Bang. It is unclear how such massive black holes formed so early. One possible explanation is that these SMBHs were seeded by `heavy' direct collapse black holes (DCBHs) with masses of $M_{\rm BH}\approx10^5~M_\odot$, but observations have not yet confirmed or refuted this scenario. In this Letter, we utilize a cosmological N-body simulation to demonstrate that before they grow roughly an order of magnitude in mass, DCBHs will have black hole mass to halo mass ratios much higher than expected for black hole remnants of Population III (Pop III) stars which have grown to the same mass (${\sim}10^6~M_\odot$). We also show that when $T_{\rm vir}\approx 10^4~{\rm K}$ halos (the potential sites of DCBH formation) merge with much larger nearby halos ($M_{\rm h} > 10^{10}~M_\odot$), they almost always orbit their larger host halos with a separation of a few kpc, which is sufficient to be spatially resolved with future X-ray and infrared telescopes. Thus, we propose that a future X-ray mission such as Lynx combined with infrared observations will be able to distinguish high-redshift DCBHs from smaller black hole seeds due to the unusually high black hole mass to stellar mass ratios of the faintest observed quasars, with inferred BH masses below ${\sim} 10^6 M_\odot$.

description: Objective: We aimed to evaluate the impact of epidural analgesia on the mode of delivery of nulliparous women with a term single fetus in vertex presentation (NTSV) that attained the second stage of labor. Study design: A single-center retrospective study provided a strict and constant department protocol for epidural analgesia practice and obstetric interventions, between 2005 and 2014. Epidural users were compared to nonusers. The primary outcome was the mode of delivery. Secondary outcomes were diagnosis of prolonged second stage of labor and maternal and neonatal morbidities. The outcomes were evaluated by adjusted multivariate analyses (Adjusted Odds Ratios (aOR), 95% CI). Results: During the study period, 25,643 NTSV attained the second stage of labor; 18 676 (73%) epidural users and 6967 (27%) nonusers. Epidural users had an increased risk of instrumental delivery 2.48, [2.22–2.76], along with a lower risk of cesarean delivery 0.38, [0.29–0.50]. Notably, the diagnosis of prolonged second stage of labor was comparable among the study groups 0.99, [0.89–1.12]. The epidural users had a significantly higher risk of early postpartum hemorrhage 1.15, [1.04–1.27]. The risk for neonatal morbidity was comparable among the study groups 1.21 [0.90–1.63]. Conclusion: Epidural analgesia in a population of NTSV that attains the second stage of labor is associated with a higher risk of instrumental delivery, nonetheless with a reduced risk of cesarean delivery; independent of the length of the second stage of labor is and safe for the neonate.

Justification of transfer. The illustrations of the male and female genitalia in Levy(1999:figs 6–9) are diagnostic and were used for comparison. Even though we did not examine the types of P. senilis, subsequent illustrations of its genitalia are diagnostic and share all of the diagnostic features of male and female Trichothyse species, instead of Poecilochroa sensu stricto and Macarophaeus: distomedially originating broad conductor with prolateral fold, apically originating claw-like embolus with broad embolic base, medially contiguous sperm duct with single loop, robust RTA with apical bifurcation, epigyne with median extension and vulva with short copulatory ducts, large, bean-shaped primary, and small secondary spermathecae (cf. Figs 1–20, 54–57, 109–119 and Levy 1999: figs 6–9). Based on these observations, we propose transferring P. senilis to Trichothyse.
Distribution. Known from Asia, Africa and Europe (Fig. 121). This is the only Palaearctic species that has a distribution extending into Africa.

description: The Monte Carlo carbyne model is modified to investigate the glass transition of the semi-flexible entangled polymer chains. The stochastic bombardment between monomers are monitored by Metropolis algorithm with help of the consideration of hard potential while the mobility of monomers is governed by its mass, scattering rate and temperature. Our model is capable to show that the glass transition temperature reduces with decreasing film thickness and the formation of critical voids in the thinner polymer contributing to the glass transition that is much easier than the bulk polymer.
Against the Wheeler-DeWitt equation

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: The ADM approach to canonical general relativity combined with Dirac's method of quantizing constrained systems leads to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. A number of mathematical as well as physical difficulties that arise in connection with this equation may be circumvented if one employs a covariant Hamiltonian method in conjunction with a recently developed, mathematically rigorous technique to quantize constrained systems using Rieffel induction. The classical constraints are cleanly separated into four components of a covariant momentum map coming from the diffeomorphism group of spacetime, each of which is linear in the canonical momenta, plus a single finite-dimensional quadratic constraint that arises in any theory, parametrized or not. The new quantization method is carried through in a minisuperspace example, and is found to produce a ``wavefunction of the universe". This differs from the proposals of both Vilenkin and Hartle-Hawking for a closed FRW universe, but happens to coincide with the latter in the open case.

Tilting maximum Lq-Likelihood estimation for extreme values drawing on block maxima

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)

description: One of the most common anticipated difficulties in applying mainstream maximum likelihood inference upon extreme values is articulated on the scarcity of extreme observations for bringing the extreme value theorem to hold across a series of maxima. This paper introduces a new variant of the Lq-likelihood method through its linkage with a particular deformed logarithm which preserves the self-dual property of the standard logarithm. Since the focus is on relatively small samples consisting of those maximum values within each sub-sampled block (by splitting the sample into blocks of equal length), the maximum Lq estimation will favour reducing uncertainty associated with the variance leaving the bias unchallenged. A comprehensive simulation study demonstrates that the introduction of a more sophisticated treatment of maximum likelihood improves the estimation of extreme characteristics, with significant implications for return-level estimation which is a crucial component in risk assessment for many operational settings prone to extreme hazards, such as earthquakes, floods or epidemics. We provide an illustrative example of how the proposed tilting of Lq-likelihood can improve inference on extreme events by drawing on public health data.

Ao abrir esta publicação, você é imediatamente convidado (a) a contemplar a capa que nossa equipe criou com tanto cuidado: a silhueta da bailarina, em seu equilíbrio gracioso, me trouxe algo inusitado e inspirador, evocou em mim a lembrança prazerosa das curvas majestosas do Pico do Ibituruna, enquanto o fluxo de seu movimento dialoga com as águas do Rio Doce, que abraçam a montanha. É mais que uma imagem. É uma metáfora viva.
Ela nos faz refletir sobre onde estamos inseridos como universidade e o impacto desse movimento nos que estão em nosso entorno. A dança não se limita aos corpos em cena; ecoa no ritmo das águas que esculpem nossa geografia, na pulsação da universidade que se reinventa diariamente e na energia de uma comunidade em constante transformação. Assim como o Rio Doce, que persiste e renasce mesmo diante de cicatrizes deixadas pela ação humana, a UFJF-GV respira através de ideias inovadoras, pesquisas audaciosas e iniciativas que desafiam fronteiras. Somos um organismo vivo: nutrimos, crescemos e fluímos, mesmo quando a adversidade insiste em atentar contra o movimento. Nesta edição, você encontrará histórias que celebram essa resiliência. Mergulhe em trajetórias acadêmicas que unem teoria e prática, como os meandros do rio que abraçam a montanha. Descubra projetos que transformam conhecimento em impacto social, e iniciativas artísticas que colorem nossa existência coletiva. Afinal, uma universidade não se faz apenas com livros e laboratórios, mas com a ousadia de quem dança mesmo sob tempestades, de um corpo que se equilibra e se movimenta desafiando a gravidade. Que estas páginas sejam como as águas que nos inspiram, como a expressão dos bailarinos que nos emociona: carreguem até você reflexões que fertilizam a mente, ideias que germinam em ações e a certeza de que cada pequeno movimento é capaz de remodelar paisagens. Convidamos você a navegar por este rio de palavras, imagens, descobertas e possibilidades e, quem sabe, a deixar-se levar por novas correntezas. A viagem promete. E que cada passo seu aqui seja um convite ao movimento. Boa leitura!Alex Sander de Moura - Editor Acadêmico

description: Im Projekt SONAR (Swiss Open Access Repository, Laufzeit 2019-2020) wird der Versuch unternommen, die Open Access-Publikationen mit Bezug zur Schweiz zu verzeichnen und auszuwerten sowie gleichzeitig ein „Repository as a Service" für wissenschaftliche Autorinnen und Autoren in Institutionen ohne solches (z.B. an kleinen Fachhochschulen, Pädagogischen Hochschulen) anzubieten. Beteiligt sind am Projekt der Bibliotheksverbund der Romandie und Hochschulen aus den drei Sprachräumen des Landes (Chur, Lugano, Genf). Der Finanzier des Projektes – swissuniversities, die Vereinigung der Hochschulen der Schweiz –, aber auch Bibliotheken, Forschungsförderer und andere Institutionen erwarten von SONAR Einsicht in den Stand und die Entwicklung von Open Access in der Schweiz, auch im Hinblick auf die hiesige OA-Strategie, die analog zu Strategien in der EU eine möglichst baldige Umstellung des wissenschaftlichen Publikationssystems anstrebt. Das Projekt geht Probleme an, die auch in den Nachbarländern bzw. der EU angegangen werden und versucht, durch Zusammenführung schon vorhandener Infrastrukturen und Daten eine möglichst pragmatische Infrastruktur zu schaffen, welche langfristig (a) Daten zur OA-Entwicklung und (b) weitere Unterstützung für kleine Hochschulen und andere Einrichtungen, die am Rand der Forschung stehen (z.B. Pädagogische Hochschulen), bieten soll. Obgleich von einem für die Schweiz spezifischen Pragmatismus geprägt, hat sich das Projekt auch herausfordernde Aufgaben gestellt, insbesondere den Versuch, automatisiert aus Volltexten internationaler Quellen relevante Informationen zu extrahieren, um auch solche Publikationen einbeziehen zu können, die nicht in offiziellen Schweizer Repositories verzeichnet wurden. Der Vortrag soll das Projekt und seinen Stand der weiteren OA-Community im DACH-Raum bekanntmachen und zur Diskussion stellen, gleichzeitig die Herausforderungen eines solchen Projektes in einem stark föderalen Land, mit seinen zahllosen Stakeholdern und Interessen, aufzeigen.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa Chemotaxis Associated with Blooms of N2-Fixing Blue-Green Algae (Cyanobacteria)
Creators: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1983

description: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Schroeter) Migula, a numerically significant bacterium found during N(2)-fixing blooms of the blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) Anabaena sp. in the Chowan River, North Carolina, was chemotactically attracted to amino acids when tested in a radioassay. The bacterium was labeled with P(i), and the disintegrations per minute determined by liquid scintillation counting were proportional to the number of cells accumulating in microcapillaries containing amino acids. Positive chemotaxis was observed toward all of the amino acids tested, although the degrees of response varied. Since many nitrogen-fixing blue-green algae secrete nitrogenous compounds, this attraction may be instrumental in establishing a symbiotic relationship between this bacterium and blue-green algae in freshwater.
A Family of N=2 Gauge Theories with Exact S-Duality

Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We study an infinite family of N=2 $Sp(2n)$ gauge theories that naturally arise from the D3-brane probe dynamics in F-theory. The matter sector consists of four fundamental and one antisymmetric tensor hyper multiplets. We propose that, in the limit of vanishing bare masses, the theory has exact $SO(8)\sdtimes SL(2,Z)$ duality. We examine the semiclassical BPS spectrum in the Coulomb phase by quantizing various monopole moduli space dynamics, and show that it is indeed consistent with the exact S-duality.

Lorenz-Mie scattering of focused light via complex focus fields: an analytic treatment

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Lorenz-Mie scattering of a wide class of focused electromagnetic fields off spherical particles is studied. The focused fields in question are constructed through complex focal displacements, leading to closed-form expressions that can exhibit several interesting physical properties, such as orbital and/or spin angular momentum, spatially-varying polarization, and a controllable degree of focusing. These fields constitute complete bases that can be considered as nonparaxial extensions of the standard Laguerre-Gauss beams and the recently proposed polynomials-of-Gaussians beams. Their analytic form turns out to lead also to closed-form expressions for their multipolar expansion. Such expansion can be used to compute the field scattered by a spherical particle and the resulting forces and torques exerted on it, for any relative position between the field's focus and the particle.

Understanding the neutrino mass constraints achievable by combining CMB lensing and spectroscopic galaxy surveys
Creators: name: Boyle, Aoife
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We perform a thorough examination of the neutrino mass ($M_ν$) constraints achievable by combining future spectroscopic galaxy surveys with cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, focusing on the contribution of CMB lensing and galaxy-CMB lensing. CMB lensing can help by breaking the $M_ν$-curvature degeneracy when combined with baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO)-only measurements, but we demonstrate this combination wastes a great deal of constraining power, as the broadband shape of the power spectrum contributes significantly to constraints. We also expand on previous work to demonstrate how cosmology-independent constraints on $M_ν$ can be extracted by combining measurements of the scale-dependence in the power spectrum caused by neutrino free-streaming with the full power of future CMB surveys. These free-streaming constraints are independent of the optical depth to the CMB ($τ$) and competitive with constraints from BAOs for extended cosmologies, even when both are combined with CMB lensing and galaxy-CMB lensing.

description: The first search for double electron capture ($2\varepsilon$) and electron capture with positron emission ($\varepsilonβ^+$) of $^{162}$Er to the ground state and to several excited levels of $^{162}$Dy was realized with 326 g of highly purified erbium oxide. The sample was measured over 1934 h by the ultra-low background HP Ge $γ$ spectrometer GeCris (465 cm$^3$) at the Gran Sasso underground laboratory. No effect was observed, the half-life limits were estimated at the level of $\lim T_{1/2}\sim 10^{15}-10^{18}$ yr. A possible resonant $0νKL_1$ capture in $^{162}$Er to the $2^+$ 1782.7 keV excited state of $^{162}$Dy is restricted as $T_{1/2}\geq5.0\times 10^{17}$ yr at 90% C.L. A new improved half-life limit $T_{1/2}\geq4.1\times 10^{17}$ yr was set on the $2β^-$ decay of $^{170}$Er to the $2^+$ 84.3 keV first excited state of $^{170}$Yb.

description: The current status of CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search using Superconducting Thermometers) and new results concerning the detector development are presented. The basic technique of CRESST is to search for particle Dark Matter (WIMPS, Weakly Interacting Massive particles) by the measurement of non-thermal phonons as created by WIMP-induced nuclear recoils. Combined with the newly developed method of simultaneous measurement of scintillation light, strong background discrimination is possible, resulting in a substantial increase in WIMP detection sensitivity. The short and long term perspectives of CRESST are discussed.

Anatomy of $B_s \to VV $ decays and effects of next-to-leading order contributions in the perturbative QCD factorization approach

description: By employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach, we calculated the branching ratios, CP-violating asymmetries, the longitudinal and transverse polarization fractions and other physical observables of the thirteen charmless hadronic $\bar{B}^0_s \to V V $ decays with the inclusion of all currently known next-to-leading order (NLO) contributions. We focused on the examination of the effects of all those currently known NLO contributions and found that: (a) for the measured decays $\bar{ B}_s^0 \to ϕϕ, K^{*0} ϕ,\bar K^{*0} K^{*0}$ and $ρ^0 ϕ$, the NLO contributions can provide $\sim 20\%$ to $\sim 40\%$ enhancements to the leading order (LO) PQCD predictions of their CP-averaged branching ratios, and consequently the agreement between the PQCD predictions and the measured values are improved effectively after the inclusion of the NLO contributions; (b) for the measured decays, the NLO corrections to the LO PQCD predictions for $(f_L,f_\perp)$ and $(ϕ_{\|},ϕ_{\bot})$ are generally small in size, but the weak penguin annihilation contributions play an important role in understanding the data about their decay rates, $f_L$ and $f_\perp$; (c) the NLO PQCD predictions for above mentioned physical observables do agree with the measured ones and the theoretical predictions from the QCDF, SCET and FAT approaches; (d) for other considered $B_s^0 \to VV$ decays, the NLO PQCD predictions for their decay rates and other physical observables are also basically consistent with the theoretical predictions from other popular approaches, future precision measurements could help us to test or examine these predictions.

Perennials and the Group-Theoretical Quantization of a Parametrized Scalar Field on a Curved Background

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The perennial formalism is applied to the real, massive Klein-Gordon field on a globally-hyperbolic background space-time with compact Cauchy hypersurfaces. The parametrized form of this system is taken over from the accompanying paper. Two different algebras ${\cal S}_{\text{can}}$ and ${\cal S}_{\text{loc}}$ of elementary perennials are constructed. The elements of ${\cal S}_{\text{can}}$ correspond to the usual creation and annihilation operators for particle modes of the quantum field theory, whereas those of ${\cal S}_{\text{loc}}$ are the smeared fields. Both are shown to have the structure of a Heisenberg algebra, and the corresponding Heisenberg groups are described. Time evolution is constructed using transversal surfaces and time shifts in the phase space. Important roles are played by the transversal surfaces associated with embeddings of the Cauchy hypersurface in the space-time, and by the time shifts that are generated by space-time isometries. The automorphisms of the algebras generated by this particular type of time shift are calculated explicitly.

description: In view of the differences that have been found between the most-probable-number and membrane filtration methods for the recovery of coliforms from chlorinated samples, the survival of total and fecal coliforms in UV-irradiated effluent samples, as tested by the most-probable-number and standard single-step membrane filtration methods, was compared. There were no significant differences in the survival of total and fecal coliforms, as tested by the two methods. In a separate set of experiments comparing total and fecal coliform survival, as tested by the most-probable-number method, only a very small but statistically significant difference of 0.1 log survival units was found. For UV-disinfected wastewater effluents, standard one-step membrane filtration procedures are comparable to standard most-probable-number procedures.
