Supersymmetry Breaking, Extra Dimensions and Neutralino Dark Matter

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show some phenomenological implications for the dark matter problem of a class of models with deflected anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking in the context of the MSSM. This scenario can be naturally embedded in a brane world model with one compactified extra dimension. It turns out that in these models the neutralino is still the LSP and so a good candidate as cold dark matter. We found that the neutralino is quite a pure bino in almost all the parameter space. Moreover we computed the thermal relic density and we found wide cosmologically allowed regions for the neutralino.

description: Agriculture is one of the most important sphere in the world. It’s development is a key question for all countries. Ukraine takes significant part on agricultural markets and has a big potential for future development. In last times, Ukraine is growing its export of agricultural products to the EU-countries. On the world food markets its plant and animal products are taking leading positions and are highly competitive. Ukraine made a big step in agricultural development since 1990th. In present times domestic enterprises developing new technologies and increasing volumes of production and processing. The main key points of Ukrainian agriculture development in described in article. Based on data analyses of FAO, World Bank and State Statistical Service of Ukraine, it was defined main points of increasing the competitiveness of Ukrainian agricultural products on the world market and forecasted its future development based on correlation and regression analysis which can help public and private sector to identify the strategies of cooperation with Ukrainian agricultural producers.
On the cohomology and inner products of the Berkovits superparticle and superstring

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

description: We describe the complete cohomology of the Berkovits BRST operator for the superparticle. It is non-zero at eight ghost numbers, splitting into two quartets, the members of each quartet being completely isomorphic. Based only on considerations of the isomorphisms of the cohomology, and using only the standard inner product, we derive the inner product appropriate for string amplitudes. It is in agreement with Berkovits' conjectured prescription, which is one element of an equivalence class. We discuss the Chern-Simons style action for D=10 super Yang-Mills, which is now manifestly superspace covariant.

description: Jet classification is an important ingredient in measurements and searches for new physics at particle coliders, and secondary vertex reconstruction is a key intermediate step in building powerful jet classifiers. We use a neural network to perform vertex finding inside jets in order to improve the classification performance, with a focus on separation of bottom vs. charm flavor tagging. We implement a novel, universal set-to-graph model, which takes into account information from all tracks in a jet to determine if pairs of tracks originated from a common vertex. We explore different performance metrics and find our method to outperform traditional approaches in accurate secondary vertex reconstruction. We also find that improved vertex finding leads to a significant improvement in jet classification performance.

description: We describe an algorithm to decompose deep images of Active Galactic Nuclei into host galaxy and nuclear components. Currently supported are three galaxy models: A de-Vaucouleurs spheroidal, an exponential disc, and a two-component disc+bulge model. Key features of the method are: (semi-)analytic representation of a possibly spatially variable point-spread function; full two-dimensional convolution of the model galaxy using gradient-controlled adaptive subpixelling; multiple iteration scheme. The code is computationally efficient and versatile for a wide range of applications. The quantitative performance is measured by analysing simulated imaging data. We also present examples of the application of the method to small test samples of nearby Seyfert 1 galaxies and quasars at redshifts z < 0.35.

Can gentrification be stopped? : a case study of Grandview-Woodland, Vancouver
Creators: name: Dobson, Cory Gregory
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: With nearly four decades of academic focus on the issue of gentrification behind us, little progress seems to have been achieved in controlling the negative externalities of the process. While admittedly a complex configuration of costs and benefits, the continued march of gentrification throughout post-industrial cities has left the painful consequences of displacement not only unchecked, but often embraced and encouraged by governments and the private sector as the engine of urban renewal and regeneration, and a solution to decaying centres in search of livability. By prioritizing the beneficial aspects of gentrification, often only to the benefit of those able to afford the costly new landscapes, inner-city transformation has intensified the problematic realities of social conflict and housing affordability within our cities. With this seemingly unstoppable momentum of gentrification and its transformation of neighbourhoods into exclusive enclaves for the white-collar work force well underway, the question this thesis attempts to answer is: can gentrification be stopped? Historical examples have shown us that with sufficient public consensus around issues of non-market housing provision, gains in affordability can be achieved. However, in today's political context it seems ideologically unlikely that the level of public support required for such successes will be repeated. Instead, this research explores the potential for possible policy intervention by identifying and seeking to understand where the advance of gentrification in Vancouver has been surprisingly delayed, or diverted, and why? With Grandview-Woodland in East Vancouver as a case study the thesis uncovers the bases for alternative policy options for communities confronting neighbourhood change as a result of gentrification.

description: Biological antifreezes protect cold-water organisms from freezing. An example are the antifreeze proteins (AFPs) that attach to the surface of ice crystals and arrest growth. The mechanism for growth arrest has not been heretofore understood in a quantitative way. We present a complete theory based on a kinetic model. We use the `stones on a pillow' picture. Our theory of the suppression of the freezing point as a function of the concentration of the AFP is quantitatively accurate. It gives a correct description of the dependence of the freezing point suppression on the geometry of the protein, and might lead to advances in design of synthetic AFPs.

description: Schiff base ligands based on 5-bromosalicylaldehyde and 4-tertbutylbenzhydrazide or benzhydrazide were used in syntheses of eight vanadium complexes with VOSO4(aq), [VO(acac)2] and [V(acac)3] in ethanolic solution. In selected syntheses 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2’-bipyridine (bpy) or 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (dpy) were used as co-ligands to fill the coordination sphere and to increase complex stability. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV-Vis, EPR spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, magnetic susceptibility and for one complex two single crystal X-ray structures were determined for complexes with two different solvent molecules (H2O and MeCN). Three complexes were found to be active in inhibition of human recombinant PTP1B, one of them is twice more active than suramin.

description: We investigate the internal structure of elliptical galaxies at $z\sim 0.2$ from a joint lensing-dynamics analysis. We model Hubble Space Telescope images of a sample of 23 galaxy-galaxy lenses selected from the Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) survey. Whereas the original SLACS analysis estimated the logarithmic slopes by combining the kinematics with the imaging data, we estimate the logarithmic slopes only from the imaging data. We find that the distribution of the lensing-only logarithmic slopes has a median $2.08\pm0.03$ and intrinsic scatter $0.13 \pm 0.02$, consistent with the original SLACS analysis. We combine the lensing constraints with the stellar kinematics and weak lensing measurements, and constrain the amount of adiabatic contraction in the dark matter (DM) halos. We find that the DM halos are well described by a standard Navarro-Frenk-White halo with no contraction on average for both of a constant stellar mass-to-light ratio ($M/L$) model and a stellar $M/L$ gradient model. For the $M/L$ gradient model, we find that most galaxies are consistent with no $M/L$ gradient. Comparison of our inferred stellar masses with those obtained from the stellar population synthesis method supports a heavy initial mass function (IMF) such as the Salpeter IMF. We discuss our results in the context of previous observations and simulations, and argue that our result is consistent with a scenario in which active galactic nucleus feedback counteracts the baryonic-cooling-driven contraction in the DM halos.

description: The aim of the analysis was to identify some expenditure in the agricultural budget as an identifier shaping the raw material base and infrastructure for the development of the bio-economy in Poland in the long term (2000-2016). Therefore, we analyzed spending on the agricultural sector (agriculture, rural development and agricultural markets) due to the share of the budget total and the GDP and the titles of the expenditure for biological progress in plant and animal production and expenditure in the budgets of voivode related to the regulation of relations water (drainage water, water companies) and geodetic works. There was used an analysis of the dynamics and structure to verify the hypothesis, that the scale of selected agricultural budget spending increases in the long term, which is a prerequisite for the development of raw material base and infrastructure for the bio-economy in Poland. Unfortunately, in the face of unstable, often fading spending for the analyzed goal, the hypothesis was rejected.

Running of effective dimension and cosmological entropy in early universe

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: In this paper, we suggest that the early universe starts from a high-energetic state with a two dimensional description and the state recovers to be four dimensional when the universe evolves into the radiation dominated phase. This scenario is consistent with the recent viewpoint that quantum gravity should be effectively two dimensional in the ultraviolet and recovers to be four dimensional in the infrared. A relationship has been established between the running of effective dimension and that of the entropy inside particle horizon of the universe, i.e., as the effective dimension runs from two to four, the corresponding entropy runs from the holographic entropy to the normal entropy appropriate to radiation. These results can be generalized to higher dimensional cases.

title: Marking and making : a characterisation of sketching for typographic design
Creators: name: Hewson, Rachel
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1995

description: This research rests on the premise that sketching in paper and pencil is crucial for typographic designers when designing documents. The aim has been to derive a characterisation of the salient aspects of sketching, through an ethnographically-oriented study of designers' use of paper and pencil. The people studied were professional typographic designers, but both the motivations for the research and the characterisation deriving from it relate to other design disciplines, notably industrial and engineering design and architecture. The goal was to identify the underlying functionality supported by sketching, in order to inform the design of future tools for document creation. The characterisation is presented as a framework, with seven main categories: visual characteristics of marks; basic semantic units of design; visual features of sketches; visual and tactile features of sheets of sketches; affordances of sketching; functionality required to support sketching; capacities of the traditional medium. The first four categories deal with the visual qualities of sketches, such as image quality within the line and recurring features in sketches such as different scale, closure, and degree of detail. The functions supported by sketching are suggested to be: interpretability, focus, comparison, simulation of experience, ideas capture and record making. The functionality identified as necessary to support sketching includes the appropriate speed of image generation, image emergence, image manipulation, and image capture and record making. Also necessary are high speed and ease of switching between all the strands mentioned above, and singularity of focus. The supportive capacities of the traditional medium include a rich vocabulary of marks, high image definition, and the continuum-of-activity through the continuity-at-medium, i.e. the natural progression from sketching on paper to making simulations out of paper. In recognition of the respective strengths of the traditional and electronic media, integration between the two is recommended for the design of optimal document creation systems.
PCNN: Deep Convolutional Networks for Short-term Traffic Congestion Prediction

description: Traffic problems have seriously affected people's life quality and urban development, and forecasting the short-term traffic congestion is of great importance to both individuals and governments. However, understanding and modeling the traffic conditions can be extremely difficult, and our observations from real traffic data reveal that (1) similar traffic congestion patterns exist in the neighboring time slots and on consecutive workdays; (2) the levels of traffic congestion have clear multiscale properties. To capture these characteristics, we propose a novel method named PCNN based on deep Convolutional Neural Network, modeling Periodic traffic data for short-term traffic congestion prediction. PCNN has two pivotal procedures: time series folding and multi-grained learning. It first temporally folds the time series and constructs a two-dimensional matrix as the network input, such that both the real-time traffic conditions and past traffic patterns are well considered; then with a series of convolutions over the input matrix, it is able to model the local temporal dependency and multiscale traffic patterns. In particular, the global trend of congestion can be addressed at the macroscale; whereas more details and variations of the congestion can be captured at the microscale. Experimental results on a real-world urban traffic dataset confirm that folding time series data into a two-dimensional matrix is effective and PCNN outperforms the baselines significantly for the task of short-term congestion prediction.

description: A {\it new} formula for the force vs extension relation is derived from the discrete version of the so called {\it worm like chain} model. This formula correctly fits some recent experimental data on polymer stretching and some numerical simulations with pairwise repulsive potentials. For a more realistic Lennard-Jones potential the agreement with simulations is found to be good when the temperature is above the $θ$ temperature. For lower temperatures a plateau emerges, as predicted by some recent experimental and theoretical results, and our formula gives good results only in the high force regime. We briefly discuss how other kinds of self-interactions are expected to affect the elasticity of the polymer.

Creators: name: Anderson, Michael Paul
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews

description: This thesis aims to provide a theological retrieval of visualization in the Christian tradition. More specifically, it seeks to contribute to the field of narrative or postliberal theology through a deeper engagement with visual sources, and through a sustained analysis of the power of the visual imagination for encountering the biblical story. Though generally positive about the role of the imagination in biblical interpretation, theologians directly associated with postliberal theology have paid insufficient attention to the role and implications of visualizing the biblical narrative. Utilizing resources from the burgeoning field known as Visual Exegesis, this thesis analyzes three key texts from within the Christian tradition: Pseudo-Bonaventure’s, Meditations on the Life of Christ; St Ignatius of Loyola’s, The Spiritual Exercises; and John Bunyan’s, The Pilgrim’s Progress. I approach each of these three well-known texts through their lesser-known earliest illustrations, seeing in these illustrations witnesses to the strategies of visualization invited by the texts, and practiced by some of their first readers. Just as these resources, and techniques, have animated engagement with the Biblical narrative in the past so, this thesis argues, they may profoundly inform and animate visualization of the biblical narrative in the present. This retrieval of diverse approaches to visualization in the Christian tradition seeks, thereby, to make an important contribution to the scholarship in postliberal theology. Moreover, the late-twentieth century flowering of theological interest in the implications of biblical narrative as narrative provides a novel and fruitful point of dialogue with each of the key texts, and periods, that I am approaching.

description: We have measured the magnetic susceptibility of single crystal samples of non-hydrated NaxCoO2 (x ~ 0.75, 0.67, 0.5, and 0.3) and hydrated Na0.3CoO2-yH2O (y ~ 0, 0.6, 1.3). Our measurements reveal considerable anisotropy between the susceptibilities with H||c and H||ab. The derived anisotropic g-factor ratio (g_ab/g_c) decreases significantly as the composition is changed from the Curie-Weiss metal with x = 0.75 to the paramagnetic metal with x = 0.3. Fully hydrated Na0.3CoO2-1.3H2O samples have a larger susceptibility than non-hydrated Na0.3CoO2 samples, as well as a higher degree of anisotropy. In addition, the fully hydrated compound contains a small additional fraction of anisotropic localized spins.

Organic metal-semiconductor field-effect transistor (OMESFET)

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Organic electronics offers the possibility of producing ultra-low-cost and large-area electronics using printing methods. Two challenges limiting the utility of printed electronic circuits are the high operating voltage and the relatively poor performance of printed transistors. It is shown that voltages can be reduced by replacing the capacitive gate used in Organic Field-Effect Transistors (OFETs) with a Schottky contact, creating a thin-film Organic Metal-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (OMESFET). This geometry solves the voltage issue, and promises to be useful in situations where low voltage operation is important, but good performance is not essential. In cases where high voltage is acceptable or required, it is shown that OFET performance can be greatly improved by employing a Schottky contact as a second gate. The relatively thick insulating layer between the gate and the semiconductor in OFETs makes it necessary to employ a large change of gate voltage (~40 V) to control the drain current. In order to reduce the voltage to less than 5 V a very thin (<10 nm) insulating layer and/or high-k dielectric materials can be used, but these solutions are not compatible with current printing technology. Simulations and implementations of OMESFET devices demonstrate low voltage operation (<5 V) and improved sub-threshold swing compared to the OFET. However, these benefits are achieved at the expense of mobility. In order to achieve good performance in an OFET, including threshold voltage, current ratio and output resistance, the semiconductor thickness has to be less than 50 nm, whereas the thickness of a printed semiconductor is typically larger than 200 nm. The addition of a top Schottky contact on the OFET creates a depletion region thereby reducing the effective thickness of the semiconductor, and resulting in enhanced transistor performance. Simulations and experimental results show improvements in the threshold voltage, the current ratio, and the output resistance of a dual gate transistor, when compared to those in an OFET of the same thickness. The transistors introduced in this work demonstrate means of improving the performance of thick-film OFETs and of achieving substantially lower operation voltage in organic transistors.

description: Magnetic skyrmions in chiral-lattice ferromagnets are currently attracting enormous research interest because of their potential applications in spintronic devices. However, they emerge in bulk specimens only in a narrow window of temperature and magnetic field. This limited stability regime is recognized as an obstacle to technical applications. Recent experiments demonstrated that the thermodynamic stability of magnetic skyrmions is enhanced or suppressed by the application of a uniaxial strain depending on its axial direction in bulk chiral-lattice ferromagnets MnSi [Y. Nii et al., Nat. Commun. 6, 8539 (2015), A. Chacon et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 267202 (2015)] and Cu2OSeO3 [S. Seki et al., Phys. Rev. B 96, 220404(R) (2017)]. Motivated by these experimental discoveries, we theoretically investigated the effects of anisotropic Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya interactions on the stability of magnetic skyrmions caused by this uniaxial strain. We find that magnetic skyrmions are significantly stabilized (destabilized) in the presence of anisotropic DM interactions when an external magnetic field lies perpendicular (parallel) to the anisotropy axis, along which the DM coupling is strengthened. Our results account completely for the experimentally observed strain-induced stabilization and destabilization of magnetic skyrmions and provide a firm ground for possible strain engineering of skyrmion-based electronic devices.

A new basis for eigenmodes on the Sphere

description: The usual spherical harmonics $Y_{\ell m}$ form a basis of the vector space ${\cal V} ^{\ell}$ (of dimension $2\ell+1$) of the eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the sphere, with eigenvalue $λ_{\ell} = -\ell ~(\ell +1)$. Here we show the existence of a different basis $Φ^{\ell}_j$ for ${\cal V} ^{\ell}$, where $Φ^{\ell}_j(X) \equiv (X \cdot N_j)^{\ell}$, the $\ell ^{th}$ power of the scalar product of the current point with a specific null vector $N_j$. We give explicitly the transformation properties between the two bases. The simplicity of calculations in the new basis allows easy manipulations of the harmonic functions. In particular, we express the transformation rules for the new basis, under any isometry of the sphere. The development of the usual harmonics $Y_{\ell m}$ into thee new basis (and back) allows to derive new properties for the $Y_{\ell m}$. In particular, this leads to a new relation for the $Y_{\ell m}$, which is a finite version of the well known integral representation formula. It provides also new development formulae for the Legendre polynomials and for the special Legendre functions.

description: By using high molecular weight fluorescent passive tracers with different diffusion coefficients and by changing the fluid velocity we study dependence of a characteristic mixing length on the Peclet number, $Pe$, which controls the mixing efficiency. The mixing length is found to be related to $Pe$ by a power law, $L_{mix}\propto Pe^{0.26\pm 0.01}$, and increases faster than expected for an unbounded chaotic flow. Role of the boundaries in the mixing length abnormal growth is clarified. The experimental findings are in a good quantitative agreement with the recent theoretical predictions.

description: Cuando el enemigo anda suelto con intenciones de cazar a las personas, la precaución, la vigilia y el estar preparados para su arremetida en todo momento forman parte íntegra de las respuestas más normales que debieran responderse frente al mal que los avizora. No obstante, esto no ocurre cuando por vez primera, un nuevo demonio desconocido se libera y llega a movilizarse de un modo que infringe todos los refugios y las zonas antes consideradas seguras. Justo aquí, en medio de la ausencia de un guardián o protector notable, no existe forma alguna de que las personas puedan estar amparados para lo que después vendría ser, un desastre colosal e incomprensible. Pues, la destrucción masiva y la pérdida de un gran número de vidas pueden estar relacionados directamente a la suspensión de la reacción y la imposibilidad de paliar la feroz embestida de esta nueva forma demoniaca. En esa línea, este breve ensayo pretende analizar los principales impactos desdoblados por la furia y el aura del despertar demoledor de la pandemia del COVID-19 en dos aspectos o dimensiones del desarrollo humano: educación y salud.

description: Recent studies conclude that the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic decreased power sector CO$_2$ emissions globally and in the United States. In this paper, we analyze the statistical significance of CO2 emissions reductions in the U.S. power sector from March through December 2020. We use Gaussian process (GP) regression to assess whether CO2 emissions reductions would have occurred with reasonable probability in the absence of COVID-19 considering uncertainty due to factors unrelated to the pandemic and adjusting for weather, seasonality, and recent emissions trends. We find that monthly CO2 emissions reductions are only statistically significant in April and May 2020 considering hypothesis tests at 5% significance levels. Separately, we consider the potential impact of COVID-19 on coal-fired power plant retirements through 2022. We find that only a small percentage of U.S. coal power plants are at risk of retirement due to a possible COVID-19-related sustained reduction in electricity demand and prices. We observe and anticipate a return to pre-COVID-19 CO2 emissions in the U.S. power sector.
