description: We believe that one can have serious reservations as to whether heavy ion collisions (e.g. 100 GeV/n Au + 100 GeV/n Au) can lead to Thermal and Chemical equilibrium over large regions (particularly if it is assumed this happens whenever QGP is produced at RHIC-that is if it is produced). It is at present not clear that the collision dynamics and times available will lead to this. An alternate scenario proposed by Van Hove where localized in rapidity bubbles of plasma may well be more probable, and may well occur at least some of the time, and some of the time mainly survive to the final state. If this occurs we have developed a series of event generators to extend and describe these phenomena. A Van Hove type[6,7] spherical bubble at eta=0 is embedded in a resonable event generator in qualitative agreement with Hijing etc[12]. The plasma bubble hadronized at a temperature of 170 Mev according to the model developed by Koch, Muller and Rafelski[21]. The amount of available bubble energy is selected by that in a small central circular cross-section of radius approx 1.3fm or 2.5fm in 100 Gev/n Au+AU, central events The results predict Possible Striking Signals for a QGP. We are also applying these techniques to investigating Kharzeev and Pisarski bubbles of metastable vacua with odd CP.

description: We present reconstructed sunspot positions based on observations reported in letters between Gottfried Kirch and other contemporary astronomers from AD 1680 to 1709, i.e. in the last decades of the Maunder Minimum. The letters were compiled and edited by Herbst (2006). The letters (and observations) from Kirch are mostly by Gottfried Kirch, but some also by his 2nd wife Maria M. Kirch (married 1692) and their son Christfried Kirch (born 1694). Using excerpts from the letters, some with drawings, we found some 35 sunspot groups (often for several days in a row or with interruptions) by Kirch and/or his letter partners (in three cases, only the month is given: 1704 Jan, Feb, 1707 Mar, otherwise always the exact dates) - usually one group at a time. We also found 17 explicit spotless days, several of them new (previously without any known observations). We could constrain the heliographic latitude by Bayesian inference for 19 sunspot groups - five of them completely new (one group 1680 May 20-22 from Kirch and Ihle, one to two groups 1680 Jun 15-23 for Kirch, one group 1684 May 6 from Ihle, and one group 1688 Dec 14-15 from Kirch), while the others mostly agree (within 2sigma) with previously published values for those dates by others. With these data, we then amend the butterfly diagram for the Maunder Minimum. By comparison of our data with the sunspot group catalog in Hoyt & Schatten (1998), we noticed a number of discrepancies, e.g. that dates for British observers in the Maunder Minimum (Flamsteed, Caswell, Derham, Stannyan, Gray, and Sharp) as listed in Hoyt & Schatten (1998) are their original Julian dates, not converted to the Gregorian calendar (10-11 day offset in Hoyt & Schatten). Most of these modifications also apply to the modified sunspot group catalog in Vaquero et al. (2016). We also present two aurorae observed by the Kirchs in 1707 and 1716.

description: We discuss perturbative evolution of the polarized structure function g_1 in the (x,Q^2) plane, with special regard to the small-x region. We determine g_1 in terms of polarized quark and gluon distributions using coefficient functions to order alpha_s. At small x g_1 then displays substantial scale dependence, which necessarily implies a corresponding scale dependence in the large-x region. This scale dependence has significant consequences for the extraction of the first moment from the experimental data, reducing its value while increasing the error. Conversely, the scale dependence may be used to constrain the size of the polarized gluon distribution.

[[worker]]. L. 2,3 a 5,7 mill. Fort semblable a la variete angustata de la subsp. panamensis, mais encore plus petite, avec la tete encore plus etroite, distinctement plus longue que large, et tout aussi retrecie derriere. Mais elle se distingue de toutes les autres races de la Moelleri par ses epines occipitales rectilignes, nullement courbees, dirigees obliquement de cote et en arriere, faisant un angle avec le bord occipital qui est faiblement concave. Chez les autres races les epines sont courbees en avant et horizontales, c'est-a-dire qu'elle continuent lateralement le bord occipital. Du reste elles sont luisantes a l'extremite comme chez les autres races et comme les autres longues epines. Toutes les epines sont greles et pointues, comme chez la var. angustata.
Les yeux sont aussi convexes, mais encore plus petits el situes encore un peu plus en arriere. La tete est deja retrecie en arriere chez les [[worker]] de 2,7 mill. Sur l'abdomen, les tubercules sont principalement repartis sur quatre lignes longitudinales, entre lesquelles il y a trois intervalles plus ou moins depourvus de tubercules, moins convexes ou meme avec une apparence de concavite. Chez la var. angustata de la panamensis, l'intervalle median est seul apparent. Derriere le premier n oe ud, les spinules anterieures sont un peu plus longues que les posterieures. Deux spinules devant les epines occipitales. D'un brun fonce, avec les pattes et les funicules d'un brun roussatre, et les epines, ainsi que les mandibules d'un jaune sale. Du reste comme la var. angustata de la panamensis, mais la pubescence est plus marquee.
Par ses epines occipitales et sa petite taille, cette forme aberrante de l´ A. Moelleri differe tant du type de l'espece qu'elle meriterait presque de constituer une espece a part. Mais d'un autre cote elle se rapproche beaucoup de la var. angustata de la subsp, panamensis qui vit dans la meme localite et le groupe varie tant que je crois mieux faire de la considerer comme race ou sous-espece.

description: The mechanical properties of hybrid composite which is composed of horse hair and glass fiber materials is studied using experimental methods. The impact of weight percentage and staking (orientation) of fiber on mechanical properties such as, tensile strength, compressive strength and flexural strength are investigated. The test outcomes are drawn and a conclusion is made to compare the result of horse hair/epoxy, glass fiber /epoxy with a hybrid of the two. The spacemen are prepared using hand lay-up process. The result shows the orientation of fiber has less significant in tensile strength of the material but, it has highly influence in compressive and flexural strength of the material. 13 different composite materials such as three glass fiber/epoxy, three horse hair/epoxy, four hybrids of two fibers and three hybrids with different orientation of fiber composite material is prepared. The orientation of fibers is [0, 90,0-90] and the weight increment is 20% for hybrid composite. In consideration of orientation the weight percentage of each fiber is equal and in consideration of weight percentage the orientation of fiber is 0-degree. the result of the test for each test also show the hybrid material have better mechanical property than the individual one.

description: Quantum fluids of light are photonic counterpart to atomic Bose gases and are attracting increasing interest for probing many-body physics quantum phenomena such as superfluidity. Two different configurations are commonly used: the confined geometry where a nonlinear material is fixed inside an optical cavity, and the propagating geometry where the propagation direction plays the role of an effective time for the system. The observation of the dispersion relation for elementary excitations in a photon fluid has proved to be a difficult task in both configurations with few experimental real izations. Here, we propose and implement a general method for measuring the excitations spectrum in a fluid of light, based on a group velocity measurement. We observe a Bogoliubov-like dispersion with a speed of sound scaling as the square root of the fluid density. This study demonstrates that a nonlinear system based on an atomic vapor pumped near resonance is a versatile and highly tunable platform to study quantum fluids of light.

description: We analyze the spectra of kaonic atoms using optical potentials withnon-local (gradient) terms. The magnitude of the non-local termsfollows from a self consistent many-body calculation of the kaon selfenergy in nuclear matter, which is based on s-wave kaon nucleoninteractions. The optical potentials exhibit strong non-linearitiesin the nucleon density and sizeable non-local terms. We find that thenon-local terms are quantitatively important in the analysis of thespectra and that a phenomenologically successful description can be obtained for p-wave like optical potentials. It is suggested that themicroscopic form of the non-local interaction terms is obtainedsystematically by means of a semi-classical expansion of the nucleusstructure. The resulting optical potential leads to less pronounced non-local effects.

description: Background: Highly modified landscapes offer the opportunity to assess how environmental factors influence the integration of alien plant species into native vegetation communities and determine the vulnerability of different communities to invasion. Aims: To examine the importance of biotic and abiotic drivers in determining whether alien plant species segregate spatially from native plant communities or become integrated and lead to biotic homogenisation. Methods: Ordination and classification of a floristic survey of over 1200 systematically located 6 m × 6 m plots were used to examine how plant community segregation, nestedness and homogenisation varied in relation to climate, environmental and human-related factors across Banks Peninsula, New Zealand. Results: The analyses of community structure indicated that native and alien plant communities were spatially and ecologically segregated due to different responses primarily to an anthropogenic impact gradient and secondly to environmental factors along an elevation gradient. Human-land use appeared most strongly linked to the distribution of alien species and was associated with increased vegetation homogenisation. However, despite spatial segregation of alien and native plant communities, biotic homogenisation not only occurred in highly managed grasslands but also in relatively less managed shrublands and forest. Conclusions: The role played by anthropogenic factors in shaping alien and native plant species community structure should not be ignored and, even along a marked environmental gradient, if the recipient sites have a long history of human-related disturbance, biotic homogenisation is often strong.

description: We present an analysis of a mosaic of ROSAT PSPC and Einstein Observatory IPC X-ray observations of 14 clusters and 2 groups of galaxies, enclosed in a sky area 15 degrees by 20 degrees centred on A3558 within the Shapley Supercluster region. From the mass of each cluster, extrapolated to a density contrast of 500, we define 4 large structures: (1) the core of the Shapley Supercluster with radius 13 $h_{50}^{-1}$ Mpc; (2) the core plus A1736; (3) the core, A1736 and the western extension (A3528-A3530-A3532) and A3571; and (4), adding the northern cluster pair A1631-A1644 to structure (3), the Supercluster as a whole enclosed within a radius $\sim 90 h_{50}^{-1}$ Mpc. The observed total masses range between 3.5-8.5 $\times 10^{15} M_{\odot}$. The mass values derived from the observed intracluster gas (assuming a baryon fraction consistent with primordial nucleosynthesis) are of the order of few times $10^{16} M_{\odot}$. Given these estimates, the core is a bound structure with a very significant overdensity of at least 5 times the critical density, indicating that is approaching maximum expansion before collapsing. Structure (2) has an overdensity of 1.7 on a scale of $\sim 30 h^{-1}_{50}$ Mpc. The core is then a 2--3.7 sigma fluctuation in an initial Gaussian perturbation field, normalized for galaxies and clusters. The highest value applies if we extrapolate to a density contrast of 200 and assume that $Ω_b < 0.095$. The baryon fraction of the core of the Shapley Supercluster, with A1736, is about 15 per cent over a radius of 28 $h^{-1}_{50}$ Mpc.

description: ALMA has found multiple dust gaps and rings in a number of protoplanetary disks in continuum emission at millimeter wavelengths. The origin of such structures is in debate. Recently, we documented how one super-Earth planet can open multiple (up to five) dust gaps in a disk with low viscosity ($α\lesssim10^{-4}$). In this paper, we examine how the positions, depths, and total number of gaps opened by one planet depend on input parameters, and apply our results to real systems. Gap locations (equivalently, spacings) are the easiest metric to use when making comparisons between theory and observations, as positions can be robustly measured. We fit the locations of gaps empirically as functions of planet mass and disk aspect ratio. We find that the locations of the double gaps in HL Tau and TW Hya, and of all three gaps in HD 163296, are consistent with being opened by a sub-Saturn mass planet. This scenario predicts the locations of other gaps in HL Tau and TW Hya, some of which appear consistent with current observations. We also show how the Rossby wave instability may develop at the edges of several gaps and result in multiple dusty vortices, all caused by one planet. A planet as low in mass as Mars may produce multiple dust gaps in the terrestrial planet forming region.

description: In the model of Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos, and Dvali where gravity is allowed to propagate in the extra dimensions of very large size, virtual graviton exchange between the standard model particles can give rise to signatures that can be tested in collider experiments. We study these effects in dilepton and diphoton production at hadron colliders. Specifically, we examine the double differential cross-section in the invariant mass and scattering angle, which is found to be useful in separating the gravity effects from the standard model. In this work, sensitivity obtained using the double differential cross-section is higher than that in previous studies based on single differential distributions. Assuming no excess of events over the standard model predictions, we obtain the following 95% confidence level lower limits on the effective Planck scale: $0.9-1.5$ TeV in the Tevatron Run I, $1.3-2.5$ TeV in Run IIa, $1.7-3.5$ TeV in Run IIb, and $6.5-12.8$ TeV at the LHC. The range of numbers corresponds to the number of extra dimensions $n=7-2$.

Action-Constrained Markov Decision Processes With Kullback-Leibler Cost

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)

description: This paper concerns computation of optimal policies in which the one-step reward function contains a cost term that models Kullback-Leibler divergence with respect to nominal dynamics. This technique was introduced by Todorov in 2007, where it was shown under general conditions that the solution to the average-reward optimality equations reduce to a simple eigenvector problem. Since then many authors have sought to apply this technique to control problems and models of bounded rationality in economics. A crucial assumption is that the input process is essentially unconstrained. For example, if the nominal dynamics include randomness from nature (e.g., the impact of wind on a moving vehicle), then the optimal control solution does not respect the exogenous nature of this disturbance. This paper introduces a technique to solve a more general class of action-constrained MDPs. The main idea is to solve an entire parameterized family of MDPs, in which the parameter is a scalar weighting the one-step reward function. The approach is new and practical even in the original unconstrained formulation.

description: We study the Landau-Zener tunneling problem for particles bound in periodic lattice insulators. To this end, we construct the path integral based on the Bloch and Wannier functions in the presence with an external force, and the transition amplitude is calculated for the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. We find that the tunneling probability in bulk periodic systems becomes drastically larger than that by the Landau-Zener formula. This enhancement is prominent for small values of the external field or small hopping integral compared with the gap, and comes from the difference between the Dirac and the periodic dispersions. In addition, when the lattice effect is strong, another analytical formula of the tunneling probability is given with a different behavior from the Landau-Zener formula. Finally, we discuss the observation scheme for the lattice effect.

Large-N Expansion as Semiclassical Approximation to the Third-Quantized Theory

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

description: The semiclassical theory for the large-N field models is developed from an unusual point of view. Analogously to the procedure of the second quantization in quantum mechanics, the functional Schrodinger large-N equation is presented in a third-quantized form. The third-quantized creation and annihilation operators depend on the field $ϕ({\bf x})$. If the coefficient of the $ϕ^4$-term is of order 1/N (this is a usual condition of applicability of the 1/N-expansion), one can rescale the third-quantized operators in such a way that their commutator will be small, while the Heisenberg equations will not contain large or small parameters. This means that classical equation of motion is an equation on the functional $Φ[ϕ(\cdot)]$. This equation being a nonlinear analog of the functional Schrodinger equation for the one-field theory is investigated. The exact solutions are constructed and the renormalization problem is analysed. We also perform a quantization procedure about found classical solutions. The corresponding semiclassical theory is a theory of a variable number of fields. The developed third-quantized semiclassical approach is applied to the problem of finding the large-N spectrum. The results are compared with obtained by known methods. We show that not only known but also new energy levels can be found.

description: The Ha peak intensity, velocity shift and velocity dispersion maps of the giant HII region NGC 604 in M 33, obtained by two dimensional high spatial resolution Fabry-Perot observations with TAURUS II at the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope in Spain (Sabalisck, 1995), are analyzed via two point correlation functions. The whole system seems to rotate as a rigid body on scales from 50 to 80 pc (the largest studied scale), with a period of $\sim$ 85 Myr. We demonstrate that the cloud seems to be comprised of eddies with varying characteristic scale lengths which range from 10 pc to the largest observed scales. The calculated kinetic energy spectrum may be interpreted as either a manifestation of a double cascading spectrum of forced two-dimensional turbulence, or as a Kolmogorov three-dimensional turbulence (although this last possibility seems unlikely). According to the first interpretation, turbulence is being forced at scales of $\sim$ 10 pc, while an enstrophy (mean-square vorticity) cascade has developed down to the smallest scales resolved and an inverse kinetic energy cascade extends up to scales of $\sim$ 70 pc where a low wave number turn over is observed; if true, this would be the first time that such a phenomenon has been observed outside the Solar System. As for the second interpretation, energy should be injected at the largest scales, $\sim$ 70 pc. In both cases the average intrinsic optical depth consistent with the results is $\sim$ 20 pc.

description: The D'yakov-Kontorovich stability criterion for spontaneous emission of acoustic waves behind shock fronts is investigated for high-temperature carbon, aluminum, silicon and niobium plasmas. The D'yakov and critical stability parameters are calculated along the principal Rankine-Hugoniot curve with an equation-of-state model in which the contribution of bound and free electrons is calculated through a relativistic quantum average-atom model, solving the Dirac equation. The pressure is determined using the stress-tensor formula in the relativistic framework. We find that the instability occurs at the end of the ionization of electronic shells, when the Hugoniot curve departs from the $ρ/ρ_0$=4 asymptote to tend to the $ρ/ρ_0$=7 limit. In such conditions, if the plasma is optically thick, the contribution of blackbody radiation to the EOS is dominant, and the system becomes always stable. Our results indicate that the conditions in which the instability takes place are different from previously published estimates, due to assumptions made in the corresponding equation-of-state models, especially as concerns the relativistic effects, and depend on the radiative opacity of the material.

Fermion Number Violation in the Background of a Gauge Field in Minkowski Space

description: Anomalous fermion number violation is studied in the background of a pure SU(2) gauge field in Minkowski space using the method of N. Christ. It is demonstrated that the chiral fermion number is violated by at most an integer amount. Then the method is applied for a spherically symmetric Minkowski space classical gauge field in the background. These classical gauge fields are finite energy solutions to pure SU(2) equations of motion with in general non-integer topological charge. We show that in the classical background which during a finite time-interval matches such solutions the fermion number violation is integer and non-zero. In particular, we calculate the violation of the fermion number in the presence of Lüscher-Schechter solutions. The meaning of anomaly equation and applications to QCD and electroweak theory are briefly discussed. We also comment on the relation of the results of this paper to the previous work.

description: We use a recent near-infrared imaging survey of samples of Seyfert and normal galaxies to study the role of bars in the fueling of nuclear activity. The active galaxy sample includes Seyfert galaxies in the Revised Shapely-Ames (RSA) and Sandage & Tammann's (1987) extension to this catalog. The normal galaxies were selected to match the Seyfert sample in Hubble type, redshift, inclination and blue luminosity. All the galaxies in both samples classified as barred in the RSA catalog are also barred in the near-infrared. In addition, ~55% of the galaxies classified as non-barred in the RSA show evidence for bars at 2.1 microns. Overall, ~70% of the galaxies observed show evidence for bar structures. The incidence of bars in the Seyfert and normal galaxies is similar, suggesting Seyfert nuclei do not occur preferentially in barred systems. Furthermore, a slightly higher percentage of normal galaxies have multiple-bar structures.

description: Quantum computing is powerful because unitary operators describing the time-evolution of a quantum system have exponential size in terms of the number of qubits present in the system. We develop a new "Singular value transformation" algorithm capable of harnessing this exponential advantage, that can apply polynomial transformations to the singular values of a block of a unitary, generalizing the optimal Hamiltonian simulation results of Low and Chuang. The proposed quantum circuits have a very simple structure, often give rise to optimal algorithms and have appealing constant factors, while usually only use a constant number of ancilla qubits. We show that singular value transformation leads to novel algorithms. We give an efficient solution to a certain "non-commutative" measurement problem and propose a new method for singular value estimation. We also show how to exponentially improve the complexity of implementing fractional queries to unitaries with a gapped spectrum. Finally, as a quantum machine learning application we show how to efficiently implement principal component regression. "Singular value transformation" is conceptually simple and efficient, and leads to a unified framework of quantum algorithms incorporating a variety of quantum speed-ups. We illustrate this by showing how it generalizes a number of prominent quantum algorithms, including: optimal Hamiltonian simulation, implementing the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse with exponential precision, fixed-point amplitude amplification, robust oblivious amplitude amplification, fast QMA amplification, fast quantum OR lemma, certain quantum walk results and several quantum machine learning algorithms. In order to exploit the strengths of the presented method it is useful to know its limitations too, therefore we also prove a lower bound on the efficiency of singular value transformation, which often gives optimal bounds.

description: A consistent, small scale description of plastic motion in a crystalline solid is presented based on a phase field description. By allowing for independent mass motion given by the phase field, and lattice distortion, the solid can remain in mechanical equilibrium on the timescale of plastic motion. Singular (incompatible) strains are determined by the phase field, to which smooth distortions are added to satisfy mechanical equilibrium. A numerical implementation of the model is presented, and used to study a benchmark problem: the motion of an edge dislocation dipole in a hexagonal lattice. The time dependence of the dipole separation agrees with classical elasticity without any adjustable parameters.

description: Background: Highly modified landscapes offer the opportunity to assess how environmental factors influence the integration of alien plant species into native vegetation communities and determine the vulnerability of different communities to invasion. Aims: To examine the importance of biotic and abiotic drivers in determining whether alien plant species segregate spatially from native plant communities or become integrated and lead to biotic homogenisation. Methods: Ordination and classification of a floristic survey of over 1200 systematically located 6 m × 6 m plots were used to examine how plant community segregation, nestedness and homogenisation varied in relation to climate, environmental and human-related factors across Banks Peninsula, New Zealand. Results: The analyses of community structure indicated that native and alien plant communities were spatially and ecologically segregated due to different responses primarily to an anthropogenic impact gradient and secondly to environmental factors along an elevation gradient. Human-land use appeared most strongly linked to the distribution of alien species and was associated with increased vegetation homogenisation. However, despite spatial segregation of alien and native plant communities, biotic homogenisation not only occurred in highly managed grasslands but also in relatively less managed shrublands and forest. Conclusions: The role played by anthropogenic factors in shaping alien and native plant species community structure should not be ignored and, even along a marked environmental gradient, if the recipient sites have a long history of human-related disturbance, biotic homogenisation is often strong.

description: Black hole solutions and their thermodynamics are studied in Einstein-scalar theories. The associated zero-temperature solutions are non-trivial holographic RG flows. These include solutions which skip intermediate extrema of the bulk scalar potential or feature an inversion of the direction of the flow of the coupling (bounces). At finite temperature, a complex set of branches of black hole solutions is found. In some cases, first order phase transitions are found between the black-hole branches. In other cases, black hole solutions are found to exist even for boundary conditions which {\em did not} allow a zero-temperature vacuum flow. Finite-temperature solutions driven solely by the vacuum expectation value of a perturbing operator (zero source) are found and studied. Such solutions exist generically (i.e. with no special tuning of the potential) in theories in which the vacuum flows feature bounces. It is found that they exhibit conformal thermodynamics. In special theories with a moduli space of vacua (at zero temperature), it is found that finite temperature destroys the existence of the moduli space.
