description: Using a suite of fully relativistic hydrodynamic simulations applied to main-sequence stars with realistic internal density profiles, we examine full and partial tidal disruptions across a wide range of black hole mass ($10^{5}\leq M_{\rm BH}/\mathrm{M}_{\odot}\leq 5\times 10^{7}$) and stellar mass ($0.3 \leq M_{\star} /\mathrm{M}_{\odot}\leq 3$) as larger $M_{\rm BH}$ leads to stronger relativistic effects. For fixed $M_{\star}$, as $M_{\rm BH}$ increases, the ratio of the maximum pericenter distance yielding full disruptions ($\mathcal{R}_{\rm t}$) to its Newtonian prediction rises rapidly, becoming triple the Newtonian value for $M_{\rm BH} = 5\times10^{7}~{\rm M}_\odot$, while the ratio of the energy width of the stellar debris for full disruptions to the Newtonian prediction decreases steeply, resulting in a factor of two correction at $M_{\rm BH} = 5 \times 10^7~{\rm M}_\odot$. We find that for partial disruptions, the fractional remnant mass for a given ratio of the pericenter to $\mathcal{R}_{\rm t}$ is higher for larger $M_{\rm BH}$. These results have several implications. As $M_{\rm BH}$ increases above $\sim 10^7~{\rm M}_\odot$, the cross section for complete disruptions is suppressed by competition with direct capture. However, the cross section ratio for partial to complete disruptions depends only weakly on $M_{\rm BH}$. The relativistic correction to the debris energy width delays the time of peak mass-return rate and diminishes the magnitude of the peak return rate. For $M_{\rm BH} \gtrsim 10^7~{\rm M}_\odot$, the $M_{\rm BH}$-dependence of the full disruption cross section and the peak mass-return rate and time is influenced more by relativistic effects than by Newtonian dynamics.

description: This paper investigates the effect of remittances in attracting U.S. foreign direct investment flows to Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). It uses an unbalanced panel data set for fifteen countries covering the period 1983-2010. The results suggest a positive and significant impact of remittances on U.S. FDI flows to LAC, but it depends upon the level of per capita GDP in the host country. Thus, a threshold of per capita GDP is needed for a country to benefit from the positive effect of remittances on U.S. FDI flows. Also, host country demand positively affects U.S. FDI flows to LAC, which supports the market size hypothesis.

description: Security trade-offs have been established for one-way bit commitment in quant-ph/0106019. We study this trade-off in two superselection settings. We show that for an `abelian' superselection rule (exemplified by particle conservation) the standard trade-off between sealing and binding properties still holds. For the non-abelian case (exemplified by angular momentum conservation) the security trade-off can be more subtle, which we illustrate by showing that if the bit-commitment is forced to be ancilla-free an asymptotically secure quantum bit commitment is possible.

description: We investigate in some detail a recently suggested general class of ensembles of sparse undirected random graphs based on a hidden stub-coloring, with or without the restriction to nondegenerate graphs. The calculability of local and global structural properties of graphs from the resulting ensembles is demonstrated. Cluster size statistics are derived with generating function techniques, yielding a well-defined percolation threshold. Explicit rules are derived for the enumeration of small subgraphs. Duality and redundancy is discussed, and subclasses corresponding to commonly studied models are identified.

description: Materials with triply-degenerate nodal points in their low-energy electronic spectrum produce crystalline-symmetry-enforced three-fold fermions, which conceptually lie between the two-fold Weyl and four-fold Dirac fermions. Here we show how a silver-based Dirac semimetal BaAgAs realizes three-fold fermions through our first-principles calculations combined with a low-energy effective $\mathbf{k.p}$ model Hamiltonian analysis. BaAgAs is shown to harbor triply-degenerate nodal points, which lie on its $C_{3}$ rotation axis, and are protected by the $C_{6v}$($C_2\otimes C_{3v}$) point-group symmetry in the absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects. When the SOC is turned on, BaAgAs transitions into a nearly-ideal Dirac semimetal state with a pair of Dirac nodes lying on the $C_{3}$ rotation axis. We show that breaking inversion symmetry in the BaAgAs$_{1-x}$P$_x$ alloy yields a clean and tunable three-fold fermion semimetal. Systematic relaxation of other symmetries in BaAgAs generates a series of other topological phases. BaAgAs materials thus provide an ideal platform for exploring tunable topological properties associated with a variety of different fermionic excitations.

description: All parabolic geometries, i.e. Cartan geometries with homogeneous model a real generalized flag manifold, admit highly interesting classes of distinguished curves. The geodesics of a projective class of connections on a manifold, conformal circles on conformal Riemannian manifolds, and Chern--Moser chains on CR--manifolds of hypersurface type are typical examples. We show that such distinguished curves are always determined by a finite jet in one point, and study the properties of such jets. We also discuss the question when distinguished curves agree up to reparametrization and discuss the distinguished parametrizations in this case. We give a complete description of all distinguished curves for some examples of parabolic geometries.

description: We present a new methodology for the real-time reduced-order modeling of stochastic partial differential equations called the dynamically/bi-orthonormal (DBO) decomposition. In this method, the stochastic fields are approximated by a low-rank decomposition to spatial and stochastic subspaces. Each of these subspaces is represented by a set of orthonormal time-dependent modes. We derive exact evolution equations of these time-dependent modes and the evolution of the factorization of the reduced covariance matrix. We show that DBO is equivalent to the dynamically orthogonal (DO) and bi-orthogonal (BO) decompositions via linear and invertible transformation matrices that connect DBO to DO and BO. However, DBO shows several improvements compared to DO and BO: (i) DBO performs better than DO and BO for cases with ill-conditioned covariance matrix; (ii) In contrast to BO, the issue of eigenvalue crossing is not present in the DBO formulation; (iii) In contrast to DO, the stochastic modes are orthonormal, which leads to more accurate representation of the stochastic subspace. We study the convergence properties of the method and compare it to the DO and BO methods. For demonstration, we consider three cases: (i) stochastic linear advection equation, (ii) stochastic Burgers' equation, and (iii) stochastic incompressible flow over a bump in a channel. Overall we observe improvements in the numerical accuracy of DBO compared against DO and BO.

obesity

description: Children and adolescents who live in Brazil, one of the most unequal countries in the world, are now among the heaviest in the world. Traditionally, researchers have paid scant attention to the role of adolescents’ own emerging socioeconomic characteristics, measured by whether they are in school or working, on their weight status. Using a nationally representative data set that includes anthropometric measures of the height and weight of all household members, this study, led by PRC faculty research associate Letícia Marteleto and former PRC trainee Molly Dondero, examines whether and how adolescents’ school and work experiences are associated with overweight and obesity in Brazil. They find that Brazilian adolescents who are enrolled in school—both those who work and those who do not—have the lowest probabilities of being overweight or obese. They argue for robust policies that promote school retention to minimize adolescents’ risk of overweight and obesity.

description: With the rise in popularity of social media, images accompanied by contextual text form a huge section of the web. However, search and retrieval of documents are still largely dependent on solely textual cues. Although visual cues have started to gain focus, the imperfection in object/scene detection do not lead to significantly improved results. We hypothesize that the use of background commonsense knowledge on query terms can significantly aid in retrieval of documents with associated images. To this end we deploy three different modalities - text, visual cues, and commonsense knowledge pertaining to the query - as a recipe for efficient search and retrieval.

description: Brazilian propolis from Apis mellifera is widely studied worldwide due to its unique chemical composition and biological properties, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory. However, although many countries produce honey, another bee product, the consumption of propolis as a functional ingredient is linked to hydroethanolic extract. Hence, other food uses of propolis still have to be incorporated into food systems. Assuming that propolis is a rich source of flavonoids and is regarded as a food-grade ingredient for food and pharmaceutical applications, this review provides a theoretical and practical basis for optimising the bioactive properties of Brazilian propolis, encompassing the extraction processes and incorporating its bioactive compounds in the delivery systems for food applications. Overall, pharmacotechnical resources can optimise the extraction and enhance the chemical stability of phenolic compounds to ensure the bioactivity of food formulations.

description: We present an improved method for predicting the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect in galaxy clusters from spatially-resolved, spectroscopic X-ray data. Using the deprojected electron density and temperature profiles measured within a fraction of the virial radius, and assuming a Navarro, Frenk & White (1995) mass model, we show how the pressure profile of the X-ray gas can be extrapolated to large radii, allowing the Comptonization parameter profile for the cluster to be predicted precisely. We apply our method to Chandra observations of three X-ray luminous, dynamically relaxed clusters with published SZ data: RX J1347.5-1145, Abell 1835 and Abell 478. Combining the predicted and observed SZ signals, we determine improved estimates for the Hubble constant from each cluster and obtain a weighted mean of H_0=69\pm8km/s/Mpc for a cosmology with Omega_m=0.3 and Omega_Lambda=0.7. This result is in good agreement with independent findings from the Hubble Key Project and the combination of cosmic microwave background and galaxy cluster data.

description: During the recent years, a number of efficient and scalable frequent itemset mining algorithms for big data analytics have been proposed by many researchers. Initially, MapReduce-based frequent itemset mining algorithms on Hadoop cluster were proposed. Although, Hadoop has been developed as a cluster computing system for handling and processing big data, but the performance of Hadoop does not meet the expectation for the iterative algorithms of data mining, due to its high I/O, and writing and then reading intermediate results in the disk. Consequently, Spark has been developed as another cluster computing infrastructure which is much faster than Hadoop due to its in-memory computation. It is highly suitable for iterative algorithms and supports batch, interactive, iterative, and stream processing of data. Many frequent itemset mining algorithms have been re-designed on the Spark, and most of them are Apriori-based. All these Spark-based Apriori algorithms use Hash Tree as the underlying data structure. This paper investigates the efficiency of various data structures for the Spark-based Apriori. Although, the data structure perspective has been investigated previously, but for MapReduce-based Apriori, and it must be re-investigated in the distributed computing environment of Spark. The considered underlying data structures are Hash Tree, Trie, and Hash Table Trie. The experimental results on the benchmark datasets show that the performance of Spark-based Apriori with Trie and Hash Table Trie are almost similar but both perform many times better than Hash Tree in the distributed computing environment of Spark.

description: We investigate the mean-field phase diagram of the Anderson impurity model out of equilibrium. Generalising the unrestricted Hartree-Fock approach to the non-equilibrium situation we derive and analyse the system of equations defining the critical surface separating the magnetic regime from the non-magnetic one. An exact analytic solution for the phase boundary as a function of the applied voltage is found in the symmetric case. Surprisingly, we find that as soon as there is an asymmetry, even small, between the contacts, no finite voltage is able to destroy the magnetic regime which persists at arbitrary high voltages.

description: Increased concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, especially of carbon dioxide, has led to attempts to implement carbon policies in order to limit and stabilize gases at acceptable levels. Agricultural activities increase greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, but they can also mitigate concentration of carbon dioxide by sequestering additional carbon. This study evaluated carbon emissions and carbon sequestration and examined the impacts of payments for sequestration and taxes on carbon emissions on cropping choices, profitability, and water consumption in the Texas High Plains. The results showed that reduction of total carbon emissions to 15% of a baseline and imposing a tax reduced the amount of water consumed for irrigation, by about 20% and 16%, respectively. However, payment for sequestration did not affect reduction of carbon emissions, water consumption nor the product mix.

Toward the Detection of Relativistic Image Doubling in Imaging Atmospheric Cerenkov Telescopes

description: Cosmic gamma-ray photons incident on the upper atmosphere create air showers that move to the Earth's surface with superluminal speed, relative to the air. Even though many of these air showers remain superluminal all along their trajectories, the shower's velocity component toward a single Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) may drop from superluminal to subluminal. When this happens, an IACT that is able to resolve the air shower both in time and angle should be able to document an unusual optical effect known as relativistic image doubling (RID). The logic of RID is that the shower appears to precede its own Cherenkov radiation when its speed component toward the IACT is superluminal, but appears to trail its own Cherenkov radiation when its speed component toward the IACT is subluminal. The result is that the IACT will see the shower start not at the top of the atmosphere but in the middle -- at the point along the shower's path where its radial velocity component drops to subluminal. Images of the shower would then be seen by the IACT to go both up and down simultaneously. A simple simulation demonstrating this effect is presented. Clear identification of RID would confirm in the atmosphere a novel optical imaging effect caused not by lenses but solely by relativistic kinematics, and may aid in the accuracy of path and speed reconstructions of the relativistic air shower.

Weak magnetism and non-Fermi liquids near heavy-fermion critical points

description: This paper is concerned with the weak-moment magnetism in heavy-fermion materials and its relation to the non-Fermi liquid physics observed near the transition to the Fermi liquid. We explore the hypothesis that the primary fluctuations responsible for the non-Fermi liquid physics are those associated with the destruction of the large Fermi surface of the Fermi liquid. Magnetism is suggested to be a low-energy instability of the resulting small Fermi surface state. A concrete realization of this picture is provided by a fractionalized Fermi liquid state which has a small Fermi surface of conduction electrons, but also has other exotic excitations with interactions described by a gauge theory in its deconfined phase. Of particular interest is a three-dimensional fractionalized Fermi liquid with a spinon Fermi surface and a U(1) gauge structure. A direct second-order transition from this state to the conventional Fermi liquid is possible and involves a jump in the electron Fermi surface volume. The critical point displays non-Fermi liquid behavior. A magnetic phase may develop from a spin density wave instability of the spinon Fermi surface. This exotic magnetic metal may have a weak ordered moment although the local moments do not participate in the Fermi surface. Experimental signatures of this phase and implications for heavy-fermion systems are discussed.

description: We investigate the reflectance of a dielectric plate coated with a graphene sheet which possesses the nonzero energy gap and chemical potential at any temperature. The general formalism for the reflectance using the polarization tensor is presented in the framework of Dirac model. It allows calculation of the reflectivity properties for any material plate coated with real graphene sheet on the basis offirst principles of quantum electrodynamics. Numerical computations of the reflectance are performed for the graphene-coated SiO$_2$ plate at room, liquid-nitrogen, and liquid-helium temperatures. We demonstrate that there is a nontrivial interplay between the chemical potential, energy gap, frequency, and temperature in their joint action on the reflectance of a graphene-coated plate. Specifically, it is shown that at the fixed frequency of an incident light an increase of the chemical potential and the energy gap affect the reflectance in opposite directions by increasing and decreasing it, respectively. According to our results, the reflectance approaches unity at sufficiently low frequencies and drops to that of an uncoated plate at high frequencies for any values of the chemical potential and energy gap. The impact of temperature on the reflectance is found to be more pronounced for graphene coatings with smaller chemical potentials. The obtained results could be applied for optimization of optical detectors and other devices exploiting graphene coatings.

description: We conduct a survey of transformational towns and villages in High-tech Development District, Yaohai District and Shushan District, Hefei City. Using data, we analyze the "sideline effect" and inherent contradiction of transformational cities, research the policy needs for social security and its trend in the citizenization process of the peri-urban farmers. On this basis, we construct the social security policy system that can adapt to the accelerated process of urbanization. Finally, we put forth the following recommendations for the social security policy in the citizenization process of the peri-urban farmers: distinguishing different groups' policy needs for social security; attaching importance to people's dynamic policy needs for social security in urbanization; focusing on the adaptability of social security policy transformation in urbanization; attaching importance to the social psychosocial environment of social security policy transformation in urbanization; achieving the trinity of non-farm conversion, urbanization and citizenization in the process of urbanization; strengthening the government's dominant position in the building of social security policy system.

description: Digitalisation is seen to have contributed to the demise of 50% of the Fortune 500 companies since 2000. The large electric motor segment is not immune to this changing business landscape and must evolve to survive. This sector is experiencing declining revenues as traditional hardware‐sales‐focused business models have proved inadequate to address a reduction in profitability. New business models that exploit new digital value streams are to leverage the value from emerging technologies of the Industrial Internet of Things, Big Data and the associated emerging predictive analytics. These can be optimised via Cloud Computing and delivered utilising Platform as a Service software solutions to reduce cost and support scalability. The missing link in the justification chain for the installation of digitalisation packages on large electric motors is a model to determine if and which package sections return the most customer value and, therefore, sales opportunities for the supplier. In this context, this paper introduces the concept of the smart electric motor. The focus is on the oil and gas industry, where digitalisation is already deeply engrained in practice and shows how risk‐based decisions can deliver a profitable project through new business models and digitalised solutions to reinvigorate this traditional industry.

Lueders Theorem for Coherent-State POVMs
Creators: name: Weigert, Stefan

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Lueders theorem states that two observables commute if measuring one of them does not disturb the measurement outcomes of the other. We study measurements which are described by continuous positive operator-valued measurements (or POVMs) associated with coherent states on a Lie group. In general, operators turn out to be invariant under the Lueders map if their P- and Q-symbols coincide. For a spin corresponding to SU(2), the identity is shown to be the only operator with this property. For a particle, a countable family of linearly independent operators is identified which are invariant under the Lueders map generated by the coherent states of the Heisenberg-Weyl group, H_3. The Lueders map is also shown to implement the anti-normal ordering of creation and annihilation operators of a particle.

description: Confocal quadrics lie at the heart of the system of confocal coordinates (also called elliptic coordinates, after Jacobi). We suggest a discretization which respects two crucial properties of confocal coordinates: separability and all two-dimensional coordinate subnets being isothermic surfaces (that is, allowing a conformal parametrization along curvature lines, or, equivalently, supporting orthogonal Koenigs nets). Our construction is based on an integrable discretization of the Euler–Poisson–Darboux equation and leads to discrete nets with the separability property, with all two-dimensional subnets being Koenigs nets, and with an additional novel discrete analogue of the orthogonality property. The coordinate functions of our discrete nets are given explicitly in terms of gamma functions.
