description: We consider the nonadiabatic energy fluctuations of a many-body system in a time-dependent harmonic trap. In the presence of scale-invariance, the dynamics becomes self-similar and the nondiabatic energy fluctuations can be found in terms of the initial expectation values of the second moments of the Hamiltonian, square position, and squeezing operators. Nonadiabatic features are expressed in terms of the scaling factor governing the size of the atomic cloud, which can be extracted from time-of-flight images. We apply this exact relation to a number of examples: the single-particle harmonic oscillator, the one-dimensional Calogero-Sutherland model, describing bosons with inverse-square interactions that includes the non-interacting Bose gas and the Tonks-Girdardeau gas as limiting cases, and the unitary Fermi gas. We illustrate these results for various expansion protocols involving sudden quenches of the trap frequency, linear ramps and shortcuts to adiabaticity. Our results pave the way to the experimental study of nonadiabatic energy fluctuations in driven quantum fluids.

description: Ability to tailor the nature of the magnetic coupling between two ferromagnetic electrodes can enable the realization of new spintronics device systems. This paper discusses our finding that deposition of an ultrathin tantalum (Ta) on the NiFe top electrode reversed the nature of inter-ferromagnetic electrode coupling. We observed that the deposition of ~ 5 nm Ta on the top of a magnetic tunnel junction with Ta( 2 nm)/Co(5 nm)/NiFe (5 nm)/AlOx( 2 nm)/NiFe (10-15 nm) configuration changed the magnetic coupling between two ferromagnetic electrodes from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic. We investigated Ta effect using multiple magnetic characterizations like ferromagnetic resonance, magnetometry, and polarized neutron reflectometry. Ferromagnetic resonance characterization was very sensitive for detecting the changes in magnetic coupling via the insulating spacer. This simple approach of adding Ta film to alter the magnetic coupling can impact the other burgeoning areas like molecular spintronics. We found that preexisting magnetic coupling between two ferromagnetic electrodes impacted the resultant magnetic properties of magnetic tunnel junctions based molecular spintronics devices.

description: Ben Burns was a pioneer of operations research and of the statistical analysis of neuronal activity. During the war, Ben served in Solly Zuckermann's operations research unit, which included a period of active service in the Mediterranean. After the war he worked with G. L. Brown at the National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR), where he investigated the effects of agents that affected neuromuscular transmission. In 1950 he moved to the Physiology Department of McGill University in Montreal, where he explored the properties of neural networks in neurologically isolated slabs of cerebral cortex and established the mechanisms responsible for maintaining rhythmic periods of excitation in isolated nerve networks. He subsequently provided evidence that self-re-exciting neural networks were implicated in establishing the respiratory rhythm. While at McGill, Ben initiated a number of highly original cross-disciplinary studies concerning the physiological bases of learning, memory and attention. He returned to NIMR in 1966 to head the Division of Physiology and Pharmacology, where he continued his investigations of visual perception. Ben was an ingenious experimenter and devised a number of mechanical and electronic devices for the statistical analysis of nerve cell activity at a time when digital computers were largely unavailable for biological work. In his 1968 book, The uncertain nervous system, he expressed his view that the interdisciplinary nature of central neurophysiology required of those who studied it a knowledge of classical physiology, experimental psychology, applied mathematics and electronic engineering. His broad view of the subject inspired a generation of students.

description: We theoretically analyze the quantum noise of signal-recycled laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors with additional input and output optics, namely frequency-dependent squeezing of the vacuum entering the dark port and frequency-dependent homodyne detection. We combine the work of Buonanno and Chen on the quantum noise of signal-recycled interferometers with ordinary input-output optics, and the work of Kimble el al. on frequency-dependent input-output optics with conventional interferometers. Analytical formulas for the optimal input and output frequency dependencies are obtained. It is shown that injecting squeezed light with the optimal frequency-dependent squeezing angle into the dark port yields an improvement on the noise spectral density by a factor of exp(-2r) (in power) over the entire squeezing bandwidth, where r is the squeezing parameter. It is further shown that frequency-dependent (variational) homodyne read-out leads to an additional increase in sensitivity which is significant in the wings of the doubly resonant structure. The optimal variational input squeezing in case of an ordinary output homodyne detection is shown to be realizable by applying two optical filters on a frequency-independent squeezed vacuum. Throughout this paper, we take as example the signal-recycled topology currently being completed at the GEO600 site. However, theoretical results obtained here are also applicable to the proposed topology of Advanced LIGO.

description: Coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are among the most magnificent solar eruptions, are a major driver of space weather and can thus affect diverse human technologies. Different processes have been proposed to explain the initiation and release of CMEs from solar active regions (ARs), without reaching consensus on which is the predominant scenario, and thus rendering impossible to accurately predict when a CME is going to erupt from a given AR. To investigate AR magnetic properties that favor CMEs production, we employ multi-spacecraft data to analyze a long duration AR (NOAA 11089, 11100, 11106, 11112 and 11121) throughout its complete lifetime, spanning five Carrington rotations from July to November 2010. We use data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory to study the evolution of the AR magnetic properties during the five near-side passages, and a proxy to follow the magnetic flux changes when no magnetograms are available, i.e. during far-side transits. We characterized the angular widths, speeds and masses of 108 CMEs that we associated to the AR, when examining a 124-day period. Such an ejectivity tracking was possible thanks to the multiviewpoint images provided by the STEREO and SOHO in a quasiquadrature configuration. We also inspected the X-ray flares registered by the GOES satellite and found 162 to be associated to the AR under study. Given the substantial number of ejections studied, we use a statistical approach instead of a single-event analysis. We found three well defined periods of very high CMEs activity and two periods with no mass ejections that are preceded or accompanied by characteristic changes in the AR magnetic flux, free magnetic energy and/or presence of electric currents. Our large sample of CMEs and long term study of a single AR, provide further evidence relating AR magnetic activity to CME and Flare production.

description: LiDAR depth-only completion is a challenging task to estimate dense depth maps only from sparse measurement points obtained by LiDAR. Even though the depth-only methods have been widely developed, there is still a significant performance gap with the RGB-guided methods that utilize extra color images. We find that existing depth-only methods can obtain satisfactory results in the areas where the measurement points are almost accurate and evenly distributed (denoted as normal areas), while the performance is limited in the areas where the foreground and background points are overlapped due to occlusion (denoted as overlap areas) and the areas where there are no measurement points around (denoted as blank areas) since the methods have no reliable input information in these areas. Building upon these observations, we propose an effective Coupled U-Net (CU-Net) architecture for depth-only completion. Instead of directly using a large network for regression, we employ the local U-Net to estimate accurate values in the normal areas and provide the global U-Net with reliable initial values in the overlap and blank areas. The depth maps predicted by the two coupled U-Nets are fused by learned confidence maps to obtain final results. In addition, we propose a confidence-based outlier removal module, which removes outliers using simple judgment conditions. Our proposed method boosts the final results with fewer parameters and achieves state-of-the-art results on the KITTI benchmark. Moreover, it owns a powerful generalization ability under various depth densities, varying lighting, and weather conditions.

We find plenty of nonlinear interrelations between the multiplets constructed and present a few examples of invariant superfield actions for them. The superconformal transformation properties of these multiplets are explicit within our method.

description: The major U.S. grain producing areas are subject to recurring droughts. However, grain production is widely dispersed and never are all areas stricken by drought in the same year. Droughts cause economic hardships for the producers but do not reduce supplies enough to cause consumer shortages in the United States. Misuse of the land and the lack of appropriate cultural practices contributed to the severity of droughts and the resulting human misery until the last 50 years. Research, education, and government financial assistance did much to restore the land and mitigate the impact of droughts after 1936. Production shortfalls led to reduced exports rather than reduced domestic consumption or inflation.

We illustrate the wide range of geometries available to the 3 beam lattice, and compare the general potential properties of the two lattice schemes. Numerically calculating the band structure we obtain the Wannier states and evaluate the parameters of the Bose-Hubbard models relevant to these lattices. Using these results we demonstrate lattices that realize Bose-Hubbard models with 2, 4, or 6 nearest neighbors, and quantify the extent that these different lattices effect the superfluid to Mott-insulator transition.

The K-theoretic quiver formula of Buch expresses the structure sheaves of these loci as integral linear combinations of products of stable Grothendieck polynomials. We prove an explicit combinatorial formula for the coefficients, which shows that they have alternating signs. Our result is applied to obtain new expansions for the Grothendieck polynomials of Lascoux and Schützenberger.

description: We present a clear N-body realization of the growth of a Bahcall-Wolf f ~ E^0.25 (rho ~ 1/r^1.75) density cusp around a massive object ("black hole") at the center of a stellar system. Our N-body algorithm incorporates a novel implementation of Mikkola-Aarseth chain regularization to handle close interactions between star and black hole particles. Forces outside the chain were integrated on a GRAPE-6A/8 special-purpose computer with particle numbers up to N=0.25 x 10^6. We compare our N-body results with predictions of the isotropic Fokker-Planck equation and verify that the time dependence of the density (both configuration and phase-space) predicted by the Fokker-Planck equation is well reproduced by the N-body algorithm, for various choices of N and of the black hole mass. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of direct-force integration techniques for simulating the evolution of galactic nuclei on relaxation time scales.

description: We propose two methods for obtaining the dual of non-linear relativity as previously formulated in momentum space. In the first we allow for the (dual) position space to acquire a non-linear representation of the Lorentz group independently of the chosen representation in momentum space. This requires a non-linear definition for the invariant contraction between momentum and position spaces. The second approach, instead, respects the linearity of the invariant contraction. This fully fixes the dual of momentum space and dictates a set of energy-dependent space-time Lorentz transformations. We discuss a variety of physical implications that would distinguish these two strategies. We also show how they point to two rather distinct formulations of theories of gravity with an invariant energy and/or length scale.

description: A consideration of joint products is important in the trade modeling currently underway at the Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Joint products are especially important in the modeling of the dairy and oilseed sectors.

As a result of this investigation we also strengthen the monotonicity property of the original presentation, and prove a monotonicity property for our alternative definition.

description: Existing learning-based point feature descriptors are usually task-agnostic, which pursue describing the individual 3D point clouds as accurate as possible. However, the matching task aims at describing the corresponding points consistently across different 3D point clouds. Therefore these too accurate features may play a counterproductive role due to the inconsistent point feature representations of correspondences caused by the unpredictable noise, partiality, deformation, \etc, in the local geometry. In this paper, we propose to learn a robust task-specific feature descriptor to consistently describe the correct point correspondence under interference. Born with an Encoder and a Dynamic Fusion module, our method EDFNet develops from two aspects. First, we augment the matchability of correspondences by utilizing their repetitive local structure. To this end, a special encoder is designed to exploit two input point clouds jointly for each point descriptor. It not only captures the local geometry of each point in the current point cloud by convolution, but also exploits the repetitive structure from paired point cloud by Transformer. Second, we propose a dynamical fusion module to jointly use different scale features. There is an inevitable struggle between robustness and discriminativeness of the single scale feature. Specifically, the small scale feature is robust since little interference exists in this small receptive field. But it is not sufficiently discriminative as there are many repetitive local structures within a point cloud. Thus the resultant descriptors will lead to many incorrect matches. In contrast, the large scale feature is more discriminative by integrating more neighborhood information. ...

description: In recent years, the need to use NoSQL systems to store and exploit big data has been steadily increasing. Most of these systems are characterized by the property "schema less" which means absence of the data model when creating a database. This property brings an undeniable flexibility by allowing the evolution of the model during the exploitation of the base. However, the expression of queries requires a precise knowledge of this model. In this paper, we propose an incremental process to extract the model while operating the document-oriented NoSQL database. To do this, we use the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) that provides a formal framework for automatic model transformation. From the insert, delete and update queries executed on the database, we propose formal transformation rules with QVT to generate the physical model of the NoSQL database. An experimentation of the extraction process was performed on a medical application.

We detail the behavior of the solution near such interfaces located in the strong field regions of dynamical black hole spacetimes, with particular attention to the convergence properties of the simulations. In our applications of this technique to the evolution of puncture initial data with vanishing shift, we demonstrate that it is possible to simultaneously maintain second order convergence near the puncture and extend the outer boundary beyond 100M, thereby approaching the asymptotically flat region in which boundary condition problems are less difficult and wave extraction is meaningful.

Internet of Things (IoT) devices are used in a plethora of context-aware application such as Proximity-Based Services (PBS), and Location-Based Services (LBS). For these systems to perform, it is essential to have reliable hardware and predict a user's position in the area with high accuracy in order to differentiate between individuals in a small area. A variety of wireless solutions that utilize Received Signal Strength Indicators (RSSI) have been proposed to provide PBS and LBS for indoor environments, though each solution presents its own drawbacks. In this work, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons are examined in terms of their accuracy in proximity estimation. Specifically, a mobile application is developed along with three Bayesian filtering techniques to improve the BLE beacon proximity estimation accuracy. This includes a Kalman filter, a particle filter, and a Non-parametric Information (NI) filter. Since the RSSI is heavily influenced by the environment, experiments were conducted to examine the performance of beacons from three popular vendors in two different environments. The error is compared in terms of Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). According to the experimental results, Bayesian filters can improve proximity estimation accuracy up to 30 % in comparison with traditional filtering, when the beacon and the receiver are within 3 m.

description: In double field theory, the physical space has been understood as a subspace of the doubled space. Recently, the doubled space is defined as the para-Hermitian manifold and the physical space is realized as a leaf of a foliation of the doubled space. This construction naturally introduces the fundamental 2-form, which plays an important role in a reformulation of string theory known as the Born sigma model. In this paper, we present the Born sigma model for $p$-branes in M-theory and type IIB theory by extending the fundamental 2-form into U-duality-covariant $(p+1)$-forms.

description: Two new states in the charm strange sector, DsJ(2317) and DsJ(2460), have recently been discovered at electron positron collider experiments. The new states are first observed in the dominant Ds pi0 and Ds* pi0 modes respectively and are very narrow. They are consistent with 0+ and 1+ P-wave charm anti-strange mesons. The DsJ(2460) meson is also observed in Ds gamma and Ds pi+ pi- modes. A review of the discoveries and possible explanations is given.

description: We study the driven critical dynamics of the quantum link model, whose Hamiltonian describes the one-dimensional $U(1)$ lattice gauge theory. We find that combined topological defects emerge after the quench and they consist of both gauge field and matter field excitations. Furthermore, the ratio of gauge field and matter field excitation is $1/2$ due to the constraint of the Gauss' law. We show that the scaling of these combined topological defects satisfies the usual Kibble-Zurek mechanism. We verify that both the electric flux and the entanglement entropy satisfy the finite-time scaling theory in the whole driven process. Possible experimental realizations are discussed.

A hyperbolic slicing condition adapted to Killing fields and densitized lapses

description: We study the properties of a modified version of the Bona-Masso family of hyperbolic slicing conditions. This modified slicing condition has two very important features: In the first place, it guarantees that if a spacetime is static or stationary, and one starts the evolution in a coordinate system in which the metric coefficients are already time independent, then they will remain time independent during the subsequent evolution, {\em i.e.} the lapse will not evolve and will therefore not drive the time lines away from the Killing direction. Second, the modified condition is naturally adapted to the use of a densitized lapse as a fundamental variable, which in turn makes it a good candidate for a dynamic slicing condition that can be used in conjunction with some recently proposed hyperbolic reformulations of the Einstein evolution equations.

description: Excitons, quasi particles composed of an electron and a hole, play an important role in optical responses in low-dimensional nanostructures. In this work, we have investigated exciton diffusion in a monolayer MoSe2 encapsulated between flakes of hexagonal boron nitrides (hBN/MoSe2/hBN). Through PL imaging and numerical solving the 2D diffusion equation, we revealed that temperature dependence of exciton mobility in the hBN/MoSe2/hBN shows non-saturating increase at low temperature, which is qualitatively different from those of quantum wells composed of compound semiconductors. Ultraflat structure of monolayer MoSe2 in the hBN/MoSe2/hBN probably leads to the suppression of charged-impurity scattering and surface-roughness scattering.

description: One of the predictions of quantum gravity phenomenology is that, in situations where Planck-scale physics and the notion of a quantum spacetime are relevant, field propagation will be described by a modified set of laws. Descriptions of the underlying mechanism differ from model to model, but a general feature is that electromagnetic waves will have non-trivial dispersion relations. A physical phenomenon that offers the possibility of experimentally testing these ideas in the foreseeable future is the propagation of high-energy gamma rays from GRB's at cosmological distances. With the observation of non-standard dispersion relations within experimental reach, it is thus important to find out whether there are competing effects that could either mask or be mistaken for this one. In this letter, we consider possible effects from standard physics, due to electromagnetic interactions, classical as well as quantum, and coupling to classical geometry. Our results indicate that, for currently observed gamma-ray energies and estimates of cosmological parameter values, those effects are much smaller than the quantum gravity one if the latter is first-order in the energy; some corrections are comparable in magnitude with the second-order quantum gravity ones, but they have a very different energy dependence.
