description: The detection and study of extrasolar planets is an exciting and thriving field in modern astrophysics, and an increasingly popular topic in introductory astronomy courses. One detection method relies on searching for stars whose light has been gravitationally microlensed by an extrasolar planet. In order to facilitate instructors' abilities to bring this interesting mix of general relativity and extrasolar planet detection into the introductory astronomy classroom, we have developed a new Lecture-Tutorial, "Detecting Exoplanets with Gravitational Microlensing." In this paper, we describe how this new Lecture-Tutorial's representations of astrophysical phenomena, which we selected and created based on theoretically motivated considerations of their pedagogical affordances, are used to help introductory astronomy students develop more expert-like reasoning abilities.

Description:—Sporocarps clustered, 2–3.5 mm total height, black-brown. Sporotheca cylindrical. Stalk black, polished, 1–1.5 mm long, sometimes fibrous at the base. Hypothallus membranous, pale brown. Peridium fugaceous, sometimes leaving a collar at the base of the sporotheca. Columella black, reaching nearly to the apex. Capillitium arising from the length of the columella, thick, branched, and anastomosed to form an inner net, and forming an irregular surface net, with free ends pointing outwards. Spore black in mass, and brownish-grey by transmitted light, spinulose-reticulate, 7–9 μm in diam. Plasmodium unknown.
Specimen examined: CHINA, Jilin Province, campus of Jilin Agricultural University, on the bark surface of a decaying log, 25 August 2013, Zhang Bo2015051310 (HMJAU10431).
 Comments: Stemonitis marjana has been recorded in Japan (Yamamoto 2000) and France (Michel et al. 2011). The Jilin specimen has slightly smaller spores than the type specimen (8.8–9.8 μm in diam.); however, its spores are similar to those of the specimen from France (about 6.5–8 μm in diam.). The type specimen, Jilin specimen, and French specimen all have a similar habitat (decaying logs), rust to rust-tawny spinulose-reticulate spores

description: The non-trivial ground-state vacuum fields of QCD form the foundation of matter. Here we examine the centre vortices identified within the ground-state fields of lattice QCD. We aim to understand the manner in which dynamical fermions in the QCD vacuum alter the centre-vortex structure. Using modern visualisation techniques, the centre-vortex structure of pure-gauge and dynamical-fermion fields is quantified and compared. We then explore the impact this modified structure has on measures of confinement and dynamical mass generation. The string tension of the static quark potential, positivity-violation in the gluon propagator, and dynamical mass generation in the overlap quark propagator are of particular interest. The impact of dynamical fermions is significant and provides new insights into the role of centre vortices in underpinning both confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in QCD.

description: Q-resolution is a proof system for quantified Boolean formulas (QBFs) in prenex conjunctive normal form (PCNF) which underlies search-based QBF solvers with clause and cube learning (QCDCL). With the aim to derive and learn stronger clauses and cubes earlier in the search, we generalize the axioms of the Q-resolution calculus resulting in an exponentially more powerful proof system. The generalized axioms introduce an interface of Q-resolution to any other QBF proof system allowing for the direct combination of orthogonal solving techniques. We implemented a variant of the Q-resolution calculus with generalized axioms in the QBF solver DepQBF. As two case studies, we apply integrated SAT solving and resource-bounded QBF preprocessing during the search to heuristically detect potential axiom applications. Experiments with application benchmarks indicate a substantial performance improvement.

description: Minimum model calculations on the co-action of hole vanishing Lifshitz transitions and correlation effects in ferropnictides are presented. The calculations predict non-Fermi-liquid behaviour and huge mass enhancements of the charge carriers at the Fermi level. The findings are compared with recent ARPES experiments and with measurements of transport and thermal properties of ferropnictides. The results from the calculation can be also applied to other unconventional superconductors and question the traditional view of quantum critical points.

description: Maximally random jammed (MRJ) particle packings can be viewed as prototypical glasses in that they are maximally disordered while simultaneously being mechanically rigid. The prediction of the MRJ packing density phi, among other packing properties of frictionless particles, still poses many theoretical challenges, even for congruent spheres or disks. Using the geometric-structure approach, we derive for the first time a highly accurate formula for MRJ densities for a very wide class of twodimensional frictionless packings, namely, binary convex superdisks, with shapes that continuously interpolate between circles and squares.

description: Views of two bright prominence eruptions trackable all the way to 1AU are here presented, using the heliospheric imagers on the Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) spacecraft. The two events first erupted from the Sun on 2011 June 7 and 2012 August 31, respectively. Only these two examples of clear prominence eruptions observable this far from the Sun could be found in the STEREO image database, emphasizing the rarity of prominence eruptions this persistently bright. For the 2011 June event, a time-dependent 3-D reconstruction of the prominence structure is made using point-by-point triangulation. This is not possible for the August event due to a poor viewing geometry. Unlike the coronal mass ejection (CME) that accompanies it, the 2011 June prominence exhibits little deceleration from the Sun to 1 AU, as a consequence moving upwards within the CME. This demonstrates that prominences are not necessarily tied to the CME's magnetic structure far from the Sun. A mathematical framework is developed for describing the degree of self-similarity for the prominence's expansion away from the Sun. This analysis suggests only modest deviations from self-similar expansion, but close to the Sun the prominence expands radially somewhat more rapidly than self-similarity would predict.

description: An expected signature of the presence of neutron stars in the population of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are large scale changes in X-ray luminosity, as systems reach spin equilibrium and a propeller state ensues. We explore the predicted luminosity changes when the disc is locally super-critical, finding that a significant parameter space in dipole field strength and accretion rate (at large radius) can be accompanied by changes of less than an order of magnitude in luminosity. We discuss the spectral signature and locate three ULXs (IC 342 X-1, Cir ULX-5 and NGC 1313 X-1) which appear to show changes consistent with super-Eddington systems entering a propeller state, and place rough constraints on the dipole field strength of NGC 1313 X-1 of $<$ 10$^{10}$ G. This work implies that the most reliable means by which to search for putative propeller states will be to search for changes in hardness ratio and at high energies.

System size and energy dependence of proton rapidity spectra from NA61/SHINE at the CERN SPS

description: NA61/SHINE is an experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The main goals of the experiment are the search for the critical point of strongly interacting matter and the study of the properties of the onset of deconfinement. To reach these goals, the two-dimensional scan in beam momentum ($13A-150A$ GeV/$c$) and system size ($p$+$p$, Be+Be, Ar+Sc, Xe+La, Pb+Pb) was performed. In the final stage of the collision, the spectra of protons are only weakly affected by the effects of resonance decays and rescattering due to their large mass. Thus, proton rapidity distribution is particularly sensitive to the onset of deconfinement. This article presents experimental results on proton production in the collision energy range, which is most relevant to the onset of deconfinement. The procedure of measuring the proton rapidity spectra by NA61/SHINE is described, as well as Collaboration's recent results from reactions of $p$+$p$, Be+Be and Ar+Sc. Presented experimental results are confronted with existing data and models.

description: On June 7th, 2021 the Juno spacecraft visited Ganymede and provided the first in situ observations since Galileo's last flyby in 2000. The measurements obtained along a one-dimensional trajectory can be brought into global context with the help of three-dimensional magnetospheric models. Here we apply the magnetohydrodynamic model of Duling et al. (2014) to conditions during the Juno flyby. In addition to the global distribution of plasma variables we provide mapping of Juno's position along magnetic field lines, Juno's distance from closed field lines and detailed information about the magnetic field's topology. We find that Juno did not enter the closed field line region and that the boundary between open and closed field lines on the surface matches the poleward edges of the observed auroral ovals. To estimate the sensitivity of the model results, we carry out a parameter study with different upstream plasma conditions and other model parameters.
Effective medium approximation for lattice random walks with long-range jumps

description: We consider the random walk on a lattice with random transition rates and arbitrarily long-range jumps. We employ Bruggeman's effective medium approximation (EMA) to find the disorder averaged (coarse-grained) dynamics. The EMA procedure replaces the disordered system with a cleverly guessed reference system in a self-consistent manner. We give necessary conditions on the reference system and discuss possible physical mechanisms of anomalous diffusion. In case of a power-law scaling between transition rates and distance, lattice variants of Levy-ights emerge as the effective medium, and the problem is solved analytically, bearing the effective anomalous diffusivity. Finally, we discuss several example distributions, and demonstrate very good agreement with numerical simulations.

description: Diffusion of small particles is omnipresent in a plentiful number of processes occurring in Nature. As such, it is widely studied and exerted in almost all branches of sciences. It constitutes such a broad and often rather complex subject of exploration that we opt here to narrow down our survey for the case of the diffusion coefficient for a Brownian particle which can be modeled in the framework of Langevin dynamics. Our main focus will center on the temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficient for several fundamental models of diverse physical systems. Starting out with diffusion in equilibrium for which the Einstein theory holds we consider a number of physical situations away from free Brownian motion and end with surveying nonequilibrium diffusion for a time-periodically driven Brownian particle dwelling randomly in a periodic potential. For this latter situation the diffusion coefficient exhibits an intriguingly non-monotonic dependence on temperature.
Infrared Properties of OGLE4 Mira variables in our Galaxy

description: We investigate infrared properties of OGLE4 Mira variables in our Galaxy. For each object, we cross-identify the AllWISE, 2MASS, Gaia, and IRAS counterparts. We present various IR two-color diagrams (2CDs) and period-magnitude and period-color relations for the Mira variables. Generally, the Mira variables with longer periods are brighter in the IR fluxes and redder in the IR colors. In this work, we also revise and update the previous catalog of AGB stars in our Galaxy using the new sample of OGLE4 Mira variables. Now, we present a new catalog of 74,093 (64,609 O-rich and 9484 C-rich) AGB stars in our Galaxy. A group of 23,314 (19,196 O-rich and 4118 C-rich) AGB stars are identified based on the IRAS PSC and another group of 50,779 (45,413 O-rich and 5366 C-rich) AGB stars are identified based on the AllWISE source catalog. For all of the AGB stars, we cross-identify the IRAS, AKARI, MSX, AllWISE, 2MASS, OGLE4, Gaia, and AAVSO counterparts and present various infrared 2CDs. Comparing the observations with the theory, we find that basic theoretical dust shell models can account for the IR observations fairly well for most of the AGB stars.

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)

description: `Ether-drift' experiments have played a crucial role for the origin of relativity. Though, a recent re-analysis shows that those original measurements where light was still propagating in gaseous systems, differently from the modern experiments in vacuum and in solid dielectrics, indicate a small universal anisotropy which is naturally interpreted in terms of a non-local thermal gradient. We argue that this could possibly be the effect, on weakly bound gaseous matter, of the temperature gradient due to the Earth's motion within the Cosmic Background Radiation (CBR). Therefore, a check with modern laser interferometers is needed to reproduce the conditions of those early measurements with today's much greater accuracy. We emphasize that an unambiguous confirmation of our interpretation would have far reaching consequences. For instance, it would also imply that all physical systems on the moving Earth are exposed to a tiny energy flow, an effect that, in principle, could induce forms of self-organization in matter.

Multigrid Multilevel Monte Carlo Approaches for Trace Estimation in Lattice QCD
Creators: name: Khalil, Mostafa Nasr
Publisher: name: Bergische Universität Wuppertal
Year: 2023

description: This thesis addresses the challenging problem of solving large systems of linear equations that arise from the discretization of quantum chromodynamics on the Lattice. The thesis contributes to overcome this challenge by improving stochastic approaches for computing the trace of the inverse, which represents the disconnected loops contributions for certain relevant observables. The main objective is to improve the accuracy of the trace estimator and reduce the computational cost through variance reduction techniques. The main idea is to take advantage of the multilevel hierarchy in the multigrid solves for the linear systems also for trace estimation. To achieve this goal, we propose a novel stochastic method called multigrid multilevel Monte Carlo (MG-MLMC), which merges both standard multigrid (MG) and multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) methods. We also introduce a new trace estimator technique, called multigrid multilevel Monte Carlo++ (MG-MLMC++), which combines the Hutch++ method, a recent inexact deflation technique, with the MG-MLMC approach. These contributions provide advancements in the field of lattice QCD, improving the accuracy and efficiency of numerical simulations, which are crucial for understanding the behavior of subatomic particles. The methods are designed to handle the increasingly large and ill-conditioned systems of linear equations that arise from the discretization of the QCD equations on a lattice and can be applied in all situations where one has to compute the trace of the inverse of a matrix and when an efficient multigrid hierarchy can be constructed.

description: Distinct from the phononic valley pseudo-spin, the real physical spin of elastic waves adds a novel tool-kit capable of envisaging the valley-spin physics of topological valley phononic crystals from a local viewpoint. Here, we report the observation of local elastic valley spin as well as the hidden elastic spin-valley locking mechanism overlooked before. We demonstrate that the selective one-way routing of valley phonon states along the topological interface can be reversed by imposing the elastic spin meta-source at different interface locations with opposite valley-spin correspondence. We unveil the physical mechanism of selective directionality as the elastic spin controlled chiral coupling of valley phonon states, through both analytical theory and experimental measurement of the opposite local elastic spin density at different interface locations for different transport directions. The elastic spin of valley topological edge phonons can be extended to other topological states and offers new tool to explore topological metamaterials.

description: We put forth two physics-informed neural network (PINN) schemes based on Miura transformations and the novelty of this research is the incorporation of Miura transformation constraints into neural networks to solve nonlinear PDEs. The most noteworthy advantage of our method is that we can simply exploit the initial-boundary data of a solution of a certain nonlinear equation to obtain the data-driven solution of another evolution equation with the aid of PINNs and during the process, the Miura transformation plays an indispensable role of a bridge between solutions of two separate equations. It is tailored to the inverse process of the Miura transformation and can overcome the difficulties in solving solutions based on the implicit expression. Moreover, two schemes are applied to perform abundant computational experiments to effectively reproduce dynamic behaviors of solutions for the well-known KdV equation and mKdV equation. Significantly, new data-driven solutions are successfully simulated and one of the most important results is the discovery of a new localized wave solution: kink-bell type solution of the defocusing mKdV equation and it has not been previously observed and reported to our knowledge. It provides a possibility for new types of numerical solutions by fully leveraging the many-to-one relationship between solutions before and after Miura transformations. Performance comparisons in different cases as well as advantages and disadvantages analysis of two schemes are also discussed. On the basis of the performance of two schemes and no free lunch theorem, they both have their own merits and thus more appropriate one should be chosen according to specific cases.

description: This study aimed to see how effective Globularia arabica and Malva slyvestries-based cream formulations were at healing scald burn wounds in rats. Depending on ointment, preparations of 1%, 5%, and 10% w/w were created. For comparison, an ointment base and a regular burn cream composed soframycine were utilized. Rats introduced a burn by solidifying equipment at 100°C on a 14-mm2 shaved dorsal region. A deep second-degree burn was created, and the percentage of wound contraction was measured over the next 15 days. The rats were euthanized on days 8 and 15, and histological slides were prepared using hematoxylin and eosin staining. Compared to the control group, there was a substantial increase in wound contraction and a significant decrease in the duration of epithelialization in the based ointment-treated groups. However, as paralleled to Globularia arabica, significant (P < .05) results were observed with 10% Globularia arabica cream, whereas Malva slyverstries indicate minimal healing. Soframycine causes a substantial increase in wound contraction (P < .05). Soframycine cream with 10% Globularia arabica therapy resulted in practically complete re-epithelialization and re-structuring of wound tissue on histological examination, whereas Malva slyversries treatment resulted in low epithelization during treatment days. The findings suggest that Globularia arabica-based cream has the wound-healing capability.

description: Motivated by the precision measurements of heavy flavor baryon masses, we analyze the modification of quark charge by employing the screening effect inside the baryon. In addition, we calculate the isospin mass splitting up to charmed baryons employing isospin symmetry breaking. Consequently, we obtain the masses, magnetic moments, and transition moments of $J^P=\frac{1}{2}^+$ and $\frac{3}{2}^+$ baryons to predict radiative decay widths for $\frac{1}{2}^{\prime +} \to \frac{1}{2}^+$ and $\frac{3}{2}^+\to \frac{1}{2}^{(\prime)+}$ transitions. Finally, we include the effects of state mixing in flavor degenerate baryon magnetic and transition moments, as well as M1 transition decay widths.

description: In this paper, we prove the boundedness of Bessel-Riesz operators on generalized Morrey spaces. The proof uses the usual dyadic decomposition, a Hedberg-type inequality for the operators, and the boundedness of Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator. Our results reveal that the norm of the operators is dominated by the norm of the kernels.

description: A Higgs-like resonance with a mass of approximately 750 GeV has recently been observed at the LHC in its diphoton decay. If this state is not simply a statistical fluctuation which will disappear with more data, it will have important implications not only for particle physics but also for cosmology. In this note, we analyze the implications of such a resonance for the dark matter (DM). Assuming a spin 1/2 DM particle, we first verify that indeed the correct relic density can be obtain for a wide range of the particle mass and weak scale coupling that are compatible with present data. We then show that the combination of near future direct and indirect detection experiments will allow to probe the CP-nature of the mediator resonance, i.e. check whether it is a scalar or a pseudoscalar like particle.

description: We present Magnetospheric Multiscale observations of electrostatic double layers in quasi-perpendicular Earth's bow shock. These double layers have predominantly parallel electric field with amplitudes up to 100 mV/m, spatial widths of 50-700 m, and plasma frame speeds within 100 km/s. The potential drop across a single double layer is 2-7% of the cross-shock potential in the de Hoffmann-Teller frame and occurs over the spatial scale of ten Debye lengths or one tenth of electron inertial length. Some double layers can have spatial width of 70 Debye lengths and potential drop up to 30% of the cross-shock potential. The electron temperature variation observed across double layers is roughly consistent with their potential drop. While electron heating in the Earth's bow shock occurs predominantly due to the quasi-static electric field in the de Hoffmann-Teller frame, these observations show that electron temperature can also increase across Debye-scale electrostatic structures.

description: Past lattice simulations tentatively suggested that the spectrum of observable particles in BSM theories is qualitatively different than perturbatively expected. The discrepancy can be traced back to nontrivial field-theoretical effects arising from the requirement of gauge invariance. A perturbative but gauge-invariant approach working directly with bound states (as proposed by Fröhlich, Morchio and Strocchi) could provide a solution, by allowing composite-state effects to be treated within a perturbative framework. We consider a toy GUT-like theory -- SU(3) Yang-Mills coupled to a scalar `Higgs' in the fundamental representation -- and expand on previous work by providing the most comprehensive spectroscopy to date, including all channels up to spin 2. Our results strongly support the general conclusion that the elementary spectrum is not an adequate proxy for the low-energy spectrum of a GUT, and also suggest a possible analytical approach to BSM model-building via the Fröhlich-Morchio-Strocchi approach.
A localized kinematic structure detected in atomic carbon emission spatially coincident with a proposed protoplanet in the HD 163296 disk

description: Over the last five years, studies of the kinematics in protoplanetary disks have led to the discovery of new protoplanet candidates and several structures linked to possible planet-disk interactions. We detect a localized kinematic bipolar structure in the HD 163296 disk present inside the deepest dust gap at 48 au from atomic carbon line emission. HD 163296's stellar jet and molecular winds have been described in detail in the literature; however, the kinematic anomaly in C I emission is not associated with either of them. Further, the velocity of the kinematic structure points indicates a component fast enough to differentiate it from the Keplerian profile of the disk; and its atomic nature hints at a localized UV source strong enough to dissociate CO and launch a C I outflow, or a strong polar flow from the upper layers of the disk. By discarding the stellar jet and previously observed molecular winds, we explore different sources for this kinematic feature in C I emission that could be associated with a protoplanet inflow/outflow, or disk winds.

description: Optical switching has been considered as a natural choice to keep pace with growing fiber link capacity. One key research issue of all-optical switching is the design of optical queues by using optical crossbar switches and fiber delay lines (SDL). In this paper, we focus on the construction of an optical priority queue with a single $(M+2)\times (M+2)$ crossbar switch and $M$ fiber delay lines, and evaluate it in terms of the buffer size of the priority queue. Currently, the best known upper bound of the buffer size is $O(2^M)$, while existing methods can only construct a priority queue with buffer $O(M^3)$. In this paper, we make a great step towards closing the above huge gap. We propose a very efficient construction of priority queues with buffer $2^{Θ(\sqrt{M})}$. We use 4-to-1 multiplexers with different buffer sizes, which can be constructed efficiently with SDL, as intermediate building blocks to simplify the design. The key idea in our construction is to route each packet entering the switch to some group of four 4-to-1 multiplexers according to its current priority, which is shown to be collision-free.
