description: Let R be a symmetric a-stable Riemann-Liouville process with Hurst parameter H > 0. Consider ||.|| a translation invariant, b-self-similar, and p-pseudo-additive functional semi-norm. We show that if H > (b + 1/p) and c = (H - b - 1/p), then x log P [ log ||R|| < c log x ] -> - k < 0, when x -> 0, with k finite in the Gaussian case a = 2. If a < 2, we prove that k is finite when R is continuous and H > (b + 1/p + 1/a). We also show that under the above assumptions, x log P [ log ||X|| < c log x ] -> - k < 0 when x -> 0, where k is finite and X is the linear a-stable fractional motion with Hurst parameter 0 < H < 1 (if a = 2, then X is the classical fractional Brownian motion). These general results recover many cases previously studied in the literature, and also prove the existence of new small deviation constants, both in Gaussian and Non-Gaussian frameworks.

description: Complex magnetic orders in frustrated magnets may exhibit rich melting processes when the magnet is heated toward the paramagnetic phase. We show that one may tune such melting processes by quantum fluctuations. We consider a kagome lattice dipolar Ising model subject to transverse field and focus on the thermal transitions out of its magnetic ground state, which features a $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}$ magnetic unit cell. Our quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations suggest that, at weak transverse field, the $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}$ phase melts by way of an intermediate magnetic charge ordered phase where the lattice translation symmetry is restored while the time reversal symmetry remains broken. By contrast, at stronger transverse field, QMC simulations suggest the $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}$ phase melts through a floating Kosterlitz-Thouless phase. The two distinct melting processes are separated by either a multicritical point or a short line of first order phase transition.

description: Managing an archival repository can be a daunting task for any professional archivist, but even more so when those collections have been “meddled” with by well-intentioned, but untrained personnel. Where do you begin to (re)establish archival standards? How do you process these records and manuscripts that have lost some–or most–of their original order, provenance, or were adulterated with ancillary materials? What is the best approach to organizing and describing these collections without further disturbing their current organization? Panelists will discuss problems they have encountered processing their institution’s collections, presenting inventive solutions and workarounds that still meet archival standards. They will also discuss when and where they found it important to compromise and move on.

description: Standard concepts of nuclear physics explaining the systematics of ground state spins in nuclei by the presence of specific coherent terms in the nucleon-nucleon interaction were put in doubt by the observation that these systematics can be reproduced with high probability by randomly chosen rotationally invariant interactions. We review the recent development in this area, along with new original results of the authors. The self-organizing role of geometry in a finite mesoscopic system explains the main observed features in terms of the created mean field and correlations that are considered in analogy to the random phase approximation.

description: Securing networks against Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks is a major challenge due to the nature and complexity of these threats. DDoS attacks aim to disrupt network services and can be launched against any organization. Due to their distributed nature, DDoS attacks are particularly challenging to detect. Mitigating these attacks requires sophisticated strategies. It has been demonstrated that bio-inspired methods have the potential to detect DDoS attacks. For example, various Artificial Immune System (AIS) schemes, derived from the human immune system systems, have been successfully used to detect anomalies in network traffic. In this paper, we propose a Gradient boost regression and Adam optimized Negative Selection Algorithm (GANSA) to overcome the difficulties of DDoS detection in the Internet of Things (IoT). Given the dynamic nature of network traffic, we demonstrate that the proposed system accurately detects both known and unknown DDoS attacks because of it is the ability to adjust to changes in network traffic patterns. We evaluate the proposed system against various state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms (e.g., CNN, SVM). We show that the proposed GANSA intrusion detection system can adapt to incoming network traffic in real time while achieving a low false positive rate (0.0003), and near-perfect detection accuracy (0.99), F1 score (0.99), and MCC (0.97).
A pure Hubbard model with demonstrable pairing adjacent to the Mott-insulating phase

description: We introduce a Hubbard model on a particular class of geometries, and consider the effect of doping the highly spin-degenerate Mott-insulating state with a microscopic number of holes in the extreme strong-coupling limit. The geometry is quite general, with pairs of atomic sites at each superlattice vertex, and a highly frustrated inter-atomic connectivity: the one dimensional realization is a chain of edge-sharing tetrahedra. The sole model parameter is the ratio of intra-pair to inter-pair hopping matrix elements. If the intra-pair hopping is negligible then introducing a microscopic number of holes results in a ferromagnetic Nagaoka groundstate. Conversely, if the intra-pair hopping is comparable with the inter-pair hopping then the groundstate is low spin with short-ranged spin correlations. We exactly solve the correlated motion of a pair of holes in such a state and find that, in 1-d and 2-d, they form a bound pair on a length scale that increases with diminishing binding energy. This result is pertinent to the long-standing problem of hole motion in the copper-oxide planes of the high-temperature superconductors: we have rigorously shown that, on our frustrated geometry, the holes pair up and a short-ranged low-spin state is generated by hole motion alone.

description: Using the mechanically controlled break junction technique at low temperatures and under cryogenic vacuum conditions we have studied atomic contacts of several magnetic (Fe, Co and Ni) and non-magnetic (Pt) metals, which recently were claimed to show fractional conductance quantization. In the case of pure metals we see no quantization of the conductance nor half-quantization, even when high magnetic fields are applied. On the other hand, features in the conductance similar to (fractional) quantization are observed when the contact is exposed to gas molecules. Furthermore, the absence of fractional quantization when the contact is bridged by H_2 indicates the current is never fully polarized for the metals studied here. Our results are in agreement with recent model calculations.

description: The Galactic Center contains some of the most extreme conditions for star formation in our Galaxy as well as many other phenomena that are unique to this region. Given our relative proximity to the Galactic Center, we are able to study details of physical processes to a level that is simply not yet possible for more distant galaxies, yielding an otherwise inaccessible view of the nuclear region of a galaxy. We recently carried out a targeted imaging survey of mid-infrared bright portions of the Galactic Center at 25 and 37 $μ$m using the FORCAST instrument on SOFIA. This survey was one of the inaugural Legacy Programs from SOFIA cycle 7, observing a total area of 403 arcmin$^2$ (2180 pc$^2$), including the Sgr A, B, and C complexes. Here we present an overview of the survey strategy, observations, and data reduction as an accompaniment to the initial public release of the survey data. We discuss interesting regions and features within the data including extended features near the circumnuclear disk, structures in the Arched Filaments and Sickle H II regions, and signs of embedded star formation in Sgr B2 and Sgr C. We also feature a handful of less well studied mid-infrared sources located between Sgr A and Sgr C that could be sites of relatively isolated star formation activity. Last, we discuss plans for subsequent publications and future data releases from the survey.

The role of Majorana CP phases in the bi-maximal mixing scheme -hierarchical Dirac mass case-

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We discuss the energy scale profile of the bi-maximal mixing which is given at the GUT energy scale in the minimal SUSY model, associated with an assumption that Y_nu^dagger Y_nu is diagonal, where Y_nu is the neutrino-Yukawa coupling matrix. In this model, the Dirac mass matrix which appears in the seesaw neutrino mass matrix is determined by three neutrino masses, two relative Majorana phases and three heavy Majorana masses. All CP phases are related by two Majorana phases. We show that the requirement that the solar mixing angle moves from the maximal mixing at GUT to the observed one as the energy scale decreases by the renormalization effect. We discuss the leptogenesis, and the lepton flavor violation process by assuming the universal soft breaking terms.

description: We consider the gravitational collapse of self-gravitating spherical dust cloud in the Hamiltonian formalism. We address both homogeneous and inhomogeneous cases. Our novel derivation of the Hamiltonian of the system is based on the improved variational principle that was proposed in \cite{KMM}. The present derivation differs from usual treatments due to the presence of an extra boundary term added to the Hilbert action. As expected, the standard equations of motion are retrieved. However, differently from other treatments, the total Hamiltonian obtained with our procedure in the Schwarzschild time-gauge is identical to the total mass of the system as measured from infinity, as it would be expected. Implications for the quantization of the system are suggested.

Semiclassical energy formulas for power-law and log potentials in quantum mechanics

description: We study a single particle which obeys non-relativistic quantum mechanics in R^N and has Hamiltonian H = -Delta + V(r), where V(r) = sgn(q)r^q. If N \geq 2, then q > -2, and if N = 1, then q > -1. The discrete eigenvalues E_{n\ell} may be represented exactly by the semiclassical expression E_{n\ell}(q) = min_{r>0}\{P_{n\ell}(q)^2/r^2+ V(r)}. The case q = 0 corresponds to V(r) = ln(r). By writing one power as a smooth transformation of another, and using envelope theory, it has earlier been proved that the P_{n\ell}(q) functions are monotone increasing. Recent refinements to the comparison theorem of QM in which comparison potentials can cross over, allow us to prove for n = 1 that Q(q)=Z(q)P(q) is monotone increasing, even though the factor Z(q)=(1+q/N)^{1/q} is monotone decreasing. Thus P(q) cannot increase too slowly. This result yields some sharper estimates for power-potential eigenvlaues at the bottom of each angular-momentum subspace.

description: The potential for associative recall of diluted neuronal networks is investigated with respect to several biologically relevant configurations, more specifically the position of the cells along the input space and the spatial distribution of their connections. First we put the asymmetric Hopfield model onto a scale-free Barabasi-Albert network. Then, a geometrical diluted architecture, which maps from L-bit input patterns into $N$-neurons networks, with R=N/L<1 (we adopt R=0.1, 0.2 and 0.3), is considered. The distribution of the connections between cells along the one-dimensional input space follows a normal distribution centered at each cell, in the sense that cells that are closer to each other have increased probability to interconnect. The models also explicitly consider the placement of the neuronal cells along the input space in such a way that denser regions of that space tend to become denser, therefore implementing a special case of the Barabasi-Albert connecting scheme. The obtained results indicate that, for the case of the considered stimuli and noise, the network performance increases with the spatial uniformity of cell distribution.

description: We update the fundamental physical and orbital properties of the transiting hot-Saturn type exoplanet HAT-P-19b and its host star HAT-P-19 as a result of the global modeling of our high-precision transit light curves, an archive spectrum, radial velocity observations, brightness values from broadband photometry in different passbands, and the precise distance of the system derived from its Gaia parallax. We collected all the light curves obtained with ground-based photometry by amateur and professional observers, measured mid-transit times, analyzed their differences from calculated transit timings based on reference ephemeris information, which we update as a result. We haven't found any periodicity in the residuals of a linear trend, which we attribute to the accumulation of uncertainties in the reference mid-transit time and the orbital period. We discuss the potential origins of the variation in transit timings briefly and find stellar activity as the most likely cause. Finally, we comment on the scenarios describing the formation and migration of this hot-Saturn type exoplanet with a bloated atmosphere yet a small core, although it is orbiting a metal-rich ([Fe / H] = 0.24 dex) host star based on the planetary, orbital, and stellar parameters of the system that we derived from our global model, the age and the evolutionary history of the star.

description: Ecuador has implemented plans to mitigate climate change, including PLANMICC, which aims to reduce 10 million tons of CO₂ equivalent by 2050. This report analyzes scenarios in the electricity sector with the incorporation of electric mobility, increased demand, and new energy sources, evaluating three scenarios with OSeMOSYS: Base, Solar Energy (SE), and Battery Storage (BS). While the Base scenario relies entirely on hydropower, the SE scenario introduces solar energy, and the BS scenario reduces hydropower dependency, lowers emissions, and saves costs. It is concluded that a 100% renewable energy matrix is feasible with appropriate backup systems.

description: The detection of gravitational waves from neutron star merger events has opened up a new field of multi-messenger astronomy linking gravitational waves events to short-gamma ray bursts and kilonova afterglows. A further - yet to be discovered - electromagnetic counterpart is precursor emission produced by the non-trivial interaction of the magnetospheres of the two neutron stars prior to merger. By performing special-relativistic force-free simulations of orbiting neutron stars we discuss the effect of different magnetic field orientations and show how the emission can be significantly enhanced by differential motion present in the binary, either due to stellar spins or misaligned stellar magnetospheres. We find that the built-up of twist in the magnetic flux tube connecting the two stars can lead to the repeated emission of powerful flares for a variety of orbital configurations. We also discuss potential coherent radio emission mechanisms in the flaring process.

description: Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM) is an imaging technique for achieving both super-resolution (SR) and optical sectioning (OS) in wide-field microscopy. It consists in illuminating the sample with periodic patterns at different orientations and positions. The resulting images are then processed to reconstruct the observed object with SR and/or OS. In this work, we present BOSSA-SIM, a general-purpose SIM reconstruction method, applicable to moving objects such as encountered in in vivo retinal imaging, that enables SR and OS jointly in a fully unsupervised Bayesian framework. By modeling a 2-layer object composed of an in-focus layer and a defocused layer, we show that BOSSA-SIM is able to jointly reconstruct them so as to get a super-resolved and optically sectioned in-focus layer. The achieved performance, assessed quantitatively by simulations for several noise levels, compares favorably with a state-of-the-art method. Finally, we validate our method on open-access experimental microscopy data.

title: Synthetic Generation of Radar Sensor Data for Virtual Validation of Autonomous Driving
Creators: name: Holder, Martin Friedrich
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2021

description: The first accidents in otherwise promising deployments of autonomous driving fleets has underscored the importance of safety certification. Safety certification is expensive, especially when conducted via real-world driving. As such, high expectations are placed on virtual testing as an economic alternative. Autonomous driving functionality often relies heavily on radar sensors, but adequately modeling these radar sensors presents a particular challenge. While automotive simulation techniques have improved, there have yet to be systematic evaluations to prove that radar simulation models describe typical radar anomalies adequately such that downstream data processing algorithms behave correctly when operated with synthetic data. This dissertation builds a series of contributions to address this need. First, sensing artifacts are extracted from targeted measurements and evaluated for modeling relevance. A new method based on ray tracing is presented that generates spectral radar data from a 3D virtual environment, while addressing measurement ranges, limited resolution, and unambiguous intervals. This method, called "Fourier tracing", is of particular note in that it can model multipath related sensing artifacts. This dissertation presents a standard set of experiments for evaluating radar models and applies these to compare Fourier tracing to other modeling approaches using real radar data. The evaluation focuses on multipath propagation with respect to wave superposition, the visibility of occluded objects, on mirror targets, and on object tracking with synthetic data. The analysis makes it possible to falsify aspects of the examined radar sensor models, question their underlying assumptions, and to identify where these methods adequately simulate radar behavior.

description: This study analysed factors that influence household choice of adaptation strategies and examined the contribution of such strategies on crop production and household food security. The study collected data from 283 randomly selected households from 26 Villages of Chikhwawa district using a semi-structured questionnaire. Results show that irrigation farming, income-generating activities, crop diversification and shifting planting dates are some of the adaptation strategies in the study area. Empirical results from a Multinomial Probit Model indicate that flood, droughts, gender and education are important factors on influencing household choice of adaptation strategies. Climatic information, input markets and credit accessibility deterred households from adapting to climatic and weather variability. Based on the Normalized Translog Production and Tobit Models’ results, irrigation farming increased crop production and household food security by 80% and 21% in the study area, respectively. On the other hand, shifting planting dates reduce crop production and household food security by 50% and 9% in the study area, respectively. The study concludes that adaptation strategies have significant contribution on crop production and household food security in the study area. The study therefore advocates that projects should mainstream barriers and choice of adaptation strategies in the farming system.

description: Auger-Meitner processes are electronic decay processes of energetically low-lying vacancies. In these processes, the vacancy is filled by an electron of an energetically higher lying orbital, while another electron is simultaneously emitted to the continuum. In low-lying orbitals relativistic effects can not even be neglected for light elements. At the same time lifetime calculations are computationally expensive. In this context, we investigate which effect spin-orbit coupling has on Auger-Meitner decay widths and aim for a rule of thumb for the relative decay widths of initial states split by spin-orbit coupling. We base this rule of thumb on Auger-Meitner decay widths of Sr4$p^{-1}$ and Ra6$p^{-1}$ obtained by relativistic FanoADC-Stieltjes calculations.

description: Improving cotton production is undoubtedly one of the greatest challenges facing the Zimbabwean government today. Since cotton is an important cash crop for the country and for individual households, it has important implications for livelihoods of rural people. In order to achieve this, several interventions in the sector were done since independence in an attempt to improve production. The main objective of this thesis was to identify factors affecting cotton production in the country during the period 1965-2005.Nerlovian supply response function was used to conduct the study. Empirical findings reveal that the major factors were government expenditure on research and extension and short-term credit extended to farmers by commercial banks and Agribank.The elasticity of supply response with respect to research and extension was 0.17 and 0.4 in the short-run and long-run respectively. The elasticity of supply response with respect to agricultural credit was found to be 0.32 in the short-run and 0.74 in the long-run. Simulation experiments reveal that a 10 per cent increase in the provision of short-term credit will result in a 3.2 per cent increase and 7.4 per cent increase in area planted to cotton. And also it was found that a 10 per cent increase in government expenditure on research and extension will result in a 1.7 per cent increase in area planted to cotton in the short run and 4 per cent in the long run. The study also documented low elasticities of supply response with respect to own price and that of competing products (maize in this case). A comparative analysis of domestic and international cotton marketing reveal that there is some relationship between the two markets. A Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.72 was found between world price (Cotton-A Index) and the domestic lint price expressed in US dollars and was significant at 1 percent. Nominal protection coefficients were also computed for the period and it was found that the degree of protection in the domestic sector was declining over the years, but generally farmers have been taxed. Important policy messages from the empirical findings were that there is need for the government, private sector and NGOs to increase extension and training programmes to farmers and also they should continue to lobby for scrapping of policies in the developed world that depress lint prices in the world market. It was recommended that measures should be put in place that enables financial institutions to increase their provision of credit to cotton farmers. Empirical findings also reveal that in the presence of some institutional mechanisms, policies that have negative effect( producer price fall) on production, cotton production will not fall as much than in the absence of such institutional mechanisms.

description: We present results from a set of simulations using a fully coupled three-dimensional (3D) chemistry-radiation-hydrodynamics model and investigate the effect of transport of chemical species by the large-scale atmospheric flow in hot Jupiter atmospheres. We couple a flexible chemical kinetics scheme to the Met Office Unified Model which enables the study of the interaction of chemistry, radiative transfer and fluid dynamics. We use a newly-released "reduced" chemical network comprising 30 chemical species that has been specifically developed for application in 3D atmosphere models. We simulate the atmospheres of the well-studied hot Jupiters HD~209458b and HD~189733b which both have dayside--nightside temperature contrasts of several hundred Kelvin and superrotating equatorial jets. We find qualitatively quite different chemical structures between the two planets, particularly for methane (CH$_4$), when advection of chemical species is included. Our results show that consideration of 3D chemical transport is vital in understanding the chemical composition of hot Jupiter atmospheres. 3D mixing leads to significant changes in the abundances of absorbing gas-phase species compared with what would be expected by assuming local chemical equilibrium, or from models including 1D - and even 2D - chemical mixing. We find that CH$_4$, carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) and ammonia (NH$_3$) are particularly interesting as 3D mixing of these species leads to prominent signatures of out-of-equilibrium chemistry in the transmission and emission spectra, detectable with near-future instruments.

description: If an M2-brane intersects an M5-brane the canonical Wess-Zumino action is plagued by a Dirac-anomaly, i.e. a non-integer change of the action under a change of Dirac-brane. We show that this anomaly can be eliminated at the expense of a gravitational anomaly supported on the intersection manifold. Eventually we check that the last one is cancelled by the anomaly produced by the fermions present. This provides a quantum consistency check of these intersecting configurations.

description: Camels (Camelus dromedarius) are the primary livelihood assets in pastoral systems providing both tangible and intangible benefits through provision of milk, meat, finance, insurance, risk aversion and social capital. Production of camels in the ASALs (Arid and Semi Arid Lands) that has traditionally been pastoral is rapidly emerging in peri-urban areas with sedentarization process of pastoral communities in urban areas in search for employment opportunities. Camel calf mortality at preweaning stage is a major productivity constraint in the pastoral system with female calf mortality up to weaning reported as high as 20 to 30%. The purpose of the study was to compare the economic losses associated with rearing camel heifer replacements from birth to first calving when they enter the milking herd between pastoral and peri-urban production systems of Isiolo district. The study used primary data collected through interviews with 729 and 1271 cases of loss in pastoral and peri-urban systems respectively obtained using multistage sampling techniques. Three analytical methods were used in this study; Tobit model, Multiple regression model and Deterministic dynamic modelling. Results indicate that of the heifer calves born, in peri-urban systems 0.505 do not reach first calving, 11.8% higher than the loss in pastoral systems (0.387). A large proportion (>50%) of the loss is attributed to diseases at preweaning age. The loss of potential heifers would be significantly reduced with improved access to veterinary services, security situation and provision of own herd labour. The direct economic loss of a heifer before first calving on average was 11.79% significantly lower in peri-urban system than the estimated loss in pastoral system. The economic loss was significantly influenced with access to extension services, herd size and security situations. Sensitivity analysis indicated the most promising interventions for reducing losses of heifers is reduced preweaning losses and reduced deaths from disease incidences in the peri-urban system. Therefore, policy intervention to support peri-urban camel milk systems need target improving infrastructure to enhance delivery of veterinary and extension services, provision of own herd labour and security situations in the ASALs.

description: We calculate the entanglement between two spins in the ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain at low temperatures, and show that when only the ground state and the one particle states are populated, the entanglement profile is a gaussian with a characteristic length depending on the temperature and the coupling between spins. The magnetic field only affects the amplitude of the profile and not its characteristic length.

description: Two new quinochalcone glycosides, hydroxysafflor yellow A-4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1) and 3'-hydroxyhydroxysafflor yellow A (2), were isolated from the safflower yellow pigments of Carthamus tinctorius. The structures of new compounds were elucidated by a detailed spectroscopic analysis (UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR, ECD). The in vitro assay indicated that compound 1 could improve the survived rate of primary mouse cortical neurons on glutamate-induced neurons damage model at a concentration of 10 μM.

description: A family of solutions of the Jacobi PDEs is investigated. This family is $n$-dimensional, of arbitrary nonlinearity and can be globally analyzed (thus improving the usual local scope of Darboux theorem). As an outcome of this analysis it is demonstrated that such Poisson structures lead to integrable systems. The solution family embraces as particular cases different systems of applied interest that are also regarded as examples.
