description: CP-PACS and JLQCD collaborations are carrying out a joint project of the 2+1 flavor full QCD simulation. Gauge configurations are generated for the non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action using PHMC algorithm at three lattice spacings, $a\sim 0.076$, 0.010 and 0.122 fm, with a fixed physical volume $(2.0 fm)^3$. We present analysis for the light meson spectrum and quark masses in the continuum limit, which are determined using data obtained from the simulations at the two coarser lattices. Our simulations reproduce experimental values of meson masses. The ud and strange quark masses turn out to be $m_{ud}^{\bar{MS}}(μ=2 GeV)=3.34(23) MeV$ and $m_s^{\bar{MS}}(μ=2 GeV)=86.7(5.9) MeV$. We also show preliminary results at our finest lattice spacing for which simulations are still being continued.

description: Our inelastic neutron scattering experiments of the spin excitations in the slightly overdoped La{1.83}Sr{0.17}CuO{4} compound show that, under the application of a magnetic field of 5 Tesla, the low-temperature susceptibility undergoes a weight redistribution centered at the spin-gap energy. Furthermore, by comparing the temperature dependence of the neutron data with ac-susceptibility and magnetization measurements, we conclude that the filling in of the spin gap tracks the irreversibility/melting temperature rather than Tc2, which indicates an unusual interplay between the magnetic vortices and the spin excitations even in the slightly overdoped regime of high-temperature superconductors.

Influence des propriétés intrinsèques de l’absorbeur de chaleur PEHDBIO sur les performances d’un capteur solaire
Creators: name: BABA AHMED, NASSIM

description: Les économies d'énergie et la protection de l'environnement constituent les fondements du concept moderne d'efficacité énergétique. À la suite du programme algérien sur les énergies renouvelables et l'efficacité énergétique dicté par sa politique de transition énergétique, il est prévu que 40% de la production d'électricité proviendra d'énergies renouvelables d'ici 2030. Le présent document accompagne cette politique dans le respect du concept d'efficacité énergétique. C'est pourquoi ce travail expérimental porte sur la conception, la construction et l'étude d'un capteur solaire respectueux de l'environnement, à base de polyéthylène haute densité (PEHDBIO) d'origine végétale, utilisé comme absorbeur de chaleur. Ce matériau est couramment utilisé dans diverses applications industrielles en raison de son faible coût, de sa facilité d’utilisation, de ses propriétés barrière à l’eau et de sa résistance aux produits chimiques. Cependant, ce matériau est sensible au vieillissement oxydatif et des recherches doivent être menées pour prédire sa durabilité. Dans ce contexte, le PEHDBIO utilisé dans l'expérience est caractérisé pour confirmer son rôle d'absorbeur de chaleur. L’objectif de ce travail est de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes impliqués dans l’influence de PEHDBIO qui conduit à son utilisation comme absorbeur de chaleur dans le capteur solaire. Des commentaires sur cette conception innovante et les performances du capteur solaire étudié sont présentés et les résultats obtenus sont encourageants : L'utilisation de matériaux biodégradables dans le capteur solaire est une idée originale, un capteur solaire est réalisé et amélioré de 50% à l'aide de chicanes.

description: Deux modèles d’estimation du mouvement sismique (MS) basés sur l’intelligence artificielle (IA) sont établis dans cette étude. Sans forme fonctionnelle (FF) a priori, ces types de modèles sont censés reproduire les mêmes estimations que celles des GMPEs classiques (Ground Motion Prediction Equations). Le MS est présenté par les ordonnées pseudo-spectrales d’accélération (PSA) avec un amortissement égal à 5%, pour les périodes (T) : 0.0, 0.1, 0.3 et 1.0 s. Deux sous-ensembles de données sont utilisés. Le premier issu de la base de données NGA-West 2 (Next Generation Attenuation). Il compte 100 événements, 4272 enregistrements et 1677 sites. Le deuxième est construit à l’aide de l’approche stochastique (Boore, 2003). Les PSA sont estimés par l’approche ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems) avec les deux sous-ensembles de données suscités. Les deux modèles issus de cette étude sont comparés avec trois GMPEs classiques. Les résultats montrent que les modèles ANFIS ainsi développés peuvent estimer, convenablement, le mouvement sismique sans passer par une forme fonctionnelle définie au préalable. Ils peuvent aussi être utilisés pour ajuster les paramètres sismiques du modèle stochastique tels que la chute de contrainte sismique.

description: The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction is present in the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) magnets of form $M_{1/3}T$S$_{2}$ ($M$ $=$ 3d transition metal, $T$ $\in$ {Nb, Ta}), given that the intercalants $M$ form $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}$ superlattices within the structure of the parent materials $T$S$_2$ and break the centrosymmetry. Competition between the DM and ferromagnetic exchange interactions in these systems has been shown to stabilize a topological defect known as a chiral soliton in select intercalated TMDCs, initiating interest both in terms of fundamental physics and the potential for technological applications. In the current article, we report on our study of the materials V$_{1/3}$TaS$_2$ and V$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$, using a combination of x-ray powder diffraction, magnetization and single crystal neutron diffraction. Historically identified as ferromagnets, our diffraction results instead reveal that vanadium spins in these compounds are arranged into an A-type antiferromagnetic configuration at low temperatures. Refined moments are 1.37(6)$μ_{B}$ and 1.50(9)$μ_{B}$ for V$_{1/3}$TaS$_2$ and V$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$, respectively. Transition temperatures $T_{c}$~$=$~32K for V$_{1/3}$TaS$_{2}$ and 50K for V$_{1/3}$NbS$_{2}$ are obtained from the magnetization and neutron diffraction results. We attribute the small net magnetization observed in the low-temperature phases to a subtle ($\sim$2$^{\circ}$) canting of XY-spins in the out-of-plane direction. These new results are indicative of dominant antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between the vanadium moments in adjacent ab-planes, likely eliminating the possibility of identifying stable chiral solitons in the current materials.

description: Les structures de tenségrité sont des structures réticulées composées de barres en compression en équilibre dans un réseau de câbles en traction. Leur rigidité et stabilité dépendent à la fois des propriétés mécaniques des éléments et des efforts internes introduits durant la mise en service. Outre son aspect artistique, la tenségrité peut également être à la base d’applications concrètes notamment à travers une solution de plateforme pour l’accessibilité à la mer, caractérisée par sa configuration géométrique variable, modulaire, légère et de faible impact environnemental. Ce document présente la suite des études menées sur cette solution de plateforme, notamment aux travers des aspects d’optimisation structurelle des modules isolés et des assemblages de plusieurs modules. Enfin, on mettra en lumière les tests de mise en service réalisés sur site littoral.

description: High-redshift quasars typically have their redshift determined from rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) emission lines. However, these lines, and more specifically the prominent C IV $λ1549$ emission line, are typically blueshifted yielding highly uncertain redshift estimates compared to redshifts determined from rest-frame optical emission lines. We present near-infrared spectroscopy of 18 luminous quasars at $2.15 < z < 3.70$ that allows us to obtain reliable systemic redshifts for these sources. Together with near-infrared spectroscopy of an archival sample of 44 quasars with comparable luminosities and redshifts, we provide prescriptions for correcting UV-based redshifts. Our prescriptions reduce velocity offsets with respect to the systemic redshifts by $\sim140$ km s$^{-1}$ and reduce the uncertainty on the UV-based redshift by $\sim25\%$ with respect to the best method currently used for determining such values. We also find that the redshifts determined from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Pipeline for our sources suffer from significant uncertainties, which cannot be easily mitigated. We discuss the potential of our prescriptions to improve UV-based redshift corrections given a much larger sample of high redshift quasars with near-infrared spectra.

The role of matter density uncertainties in the analysis of future neutrino factory experiments

description: Matter density uncertainties can affect the measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters at future neutrino factory experiments, such as the measurements of the mixing parameters $θ_{13}$ and $\deltacp$. We compare different matter density uncertainty models and discuss the possibility to include the matter density uncertainties in a complete statistical analysis. Furthermore, we systematically study in which measurements and where in the parameter space matter density uncertainties are most relevant. We illustrate this discussion with examples that show the effects as functions of different magnitudes of the matter density uncertainties. We find that matter density uncertainties are especially relevant for large $\stheta \gtrsim 10^{-3}$. Within the KamLAND-allowed range, they are most relevant for the precision measurements of $\stheta$ and $\deltacp$, but less relevant for ``binary'' measurements, such as for the sign of $\ldm$, the sensitivity to $\stheta$, or the sensitivity to maximal CP violation. In addition, we demonstrate that knowing the matter density along a specific baseline better than to about 1% precision means that all measurements will become almost independent of the matter density uncertainties.

description: Une approche par éléments finis cohésifs-volumétriques, tenant compte des propriétés mécaniques de la zone de transition interfaciale (ITZ), est utilisée pour étudier le comportement mécanique du béton lors d'un essai de compression uniaxiale. Dans ce travail, un modèle géométrique bidimensionnel à l'échelle mésoscopique du béton numérique a été considéré. Les échantillons obtenus sont maillés à l'aide du logiciel GMSH avec une méthode de Delaunay. Les résultats des simulations à l’aide du Modèle de Zones Cohésives Frottantes (MZCF) permettent, à travers une étude de criblage de type Hadamard, d’apporter des éléments de réponses concernant les facteurs les plus influents et leur contribution à la résistance maximale du béton en compression uniaxiale.

Réponse en traction d’un composite verre/matrice ettringitique : influence du procédé de pré-imprégnation

description: Cet article présente une étude expérimentale du comportement en traction d’un composite textile-micro béton (TRC) innovant. En général, les fils utilisés dans les textiles sont des fils multi-filamentaires composés de centaines de filaments de faible diamètre. L’utilisation de fils multi-filamentaires avec du ciment est difficile car la pénétration des particules de ciment reste limitée aux filaments externes, ce qui rend faible l’adhérence fil/matrice et par conséquent la performance mécanique du composite. Une solution pour améliorer cette adhérence est de pré-imprégner les tissus par voie humide avec des poudres minérales ou organiques. Dans cette étude, une autre solution est choisie : pré-imprégner les tissus par voie sèche en appliquant un champ électrostatique alternatif qui autorise la pénétration de la poudre au sein du renfort. Le principal avantage de cette solution innovante est la possibilité de réaliser des éléments de construction de grande taille in situ en assurant une distribution homogène et contrôlée des poudres dans le textile. L’objectif de ce travail est de comparer ces deux méthodes de pré-imprégnation afin d’identifier les propriétés en traction des TRC et mettre en évidence l’efficacité du processus de pré-imprégnation. 5 types d'échantillons ont été testés selon 3 configurations : fil sec (S), fil pré-imprégné par voie humide (PH) et par voie sèche (PS).

description: By performing a large number of fully resolved simulations of incompressible homogeneous and isotropic two dimensional turbulence, we study the scaling behavior of the maximal Lyapunov exponent, the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy and attractor dimension. The scaling of the maximal Lyapunov exponent is found to be in good agreement with the dimensional predictions. For the cases of the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy and attractor dimension the simple dimensional predictions are found to be insufficient. A dependence on the system size and the forcing length scale is found, suggesting non-universal behavior. The applicability of these results to atmospheric predictability is also discussed.

description: We provide systematic analysis on a non-Hermitian PT -symmetric quantum impurity system both in and out of equilibrium, based on exact computations. In order to understand the interplay between non-Hermiticity and Kondo physics, we focus on a prototypical noninteracting impurity system, the resonant level model, with complex coupling constants. Explicitly constructing biorthogonal basis, we study its thermodynamic properties as well as the Loschmidt echo starting from the initially disconnected two free fermion chains. Remarkably, we observe the universal crossover physics in the Loschmidt echo, both in the PT broken and unbroken regimes. We also find that the ground state quantities we compute in the PT broken regime can be obtained by analytic continuation. It turns out that Kondo screening ceases to exist in the PT broken regime, which was also previously predicted in the non-hermitian Kondo model. All the analytical results are corroborated against biorthogonal free fermion numerics.

description: The objective of this paper is to investigate the viscosity characteristics of fine-grained material (typically clay). A series of laboratory tests were conducted using MCR 102 rheometer to investigate the viscosity properties of the material under steady and dynamic conditions. The results indicate that the apparent viscosity at the same shear rate of Kaolinite is highly dependent on the shear rate and the W/S ratios, it decreases as the shear rate and the W/S ratios increase. In the considered frequency range, the complex viscosity of different W/S ratio sample have a nearly parallel linear trend in a log-log scale, and the complex viscosity sharply decreases with the frequency increasing.

description: We analyzed Chandra X-ray observations of five galaxy clusters whose atmospheric cooling times, entropy parameters, and cooling time to free-fall time ratios within the central galaxies lie below 1 Gyr, below 30 keV cm^2, and between 20 < tcool/tff < 50, respectively. These thermodynamic properties are commonly associated with molecular clouds, bright H-alpha emission, and star formation in central galaxies. However, none of these clusters have detectable H-alpha indicated in the ACCEPT database, nor do they have significant star formation rates or detectable molecular gas. Among these, only RBS0533 has a detectable radio/X-ray bubble which are commonly observed in cooling atmospheres. Signatures of uplifted, high metallicity atmospheric gas are absent. Despite its prominent X-ray bubble, RBS0533 lacks significant levels of molecular gas. Cold gas is absent at appreciable levels in these systems perhaps because their radio sources have failed to lift low entropy atmospheric gas to an altitude where the ratio of the cooling time to the free-fall time falls below unity.

description: I provide a review of observations in the optical, UV (HST), and EUV (EUVE and Chandra LETG) of the rapid periodic oscillations of nonmagnetic, disk-accreting, high mass-accretion rate cataclysmic variables (CVs), with particular emphasis on the dwarf nova SS Cyg in outburst. In addition, I drawn attention to a correlation, valid over nearly six orders of magnitude in frequency, between the frequencies of the quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) of white dwarf, neutron star, and black hole binaries. This correlation identifies the high frequency quasi-coherent oscillations (so-called ``dwarf nova oscillations'') of CVs with the kilohertz QPOs of low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), and the low frequency and low coherence QPOs of CVs with the horizontal branch oscillations (or the broad noise component identified as such) of LMXBs. Assuming that the same mechanisms produce the QPOs of white dwarf, neutron star, and black hole binaries, this correlation has important implications for QPO models.

description: We present the electrodynamic response of TiOBr, which undergoes a transition to a spin-singlet ground state for temperatures below T$_{C1}=28$ K. The temperature evolution of the phonon anomalies indicates, like in \cl, an extended fluctuation regime, extending well above T$_{C1}$. At low frequencies, the spectral weight is progressively suppressed by decreasing the temperature, suggesting the formation of a spin-gap and a considerable electron-phonon coupling. A comparison of the two oxyhalides shows a weaker interplane coupling and reduced dimensionality for TiOBr that enhances fluctuations and shifts the ordering temperatures to lower values. In the fluctuation regime the temperature dependencies of some phonon parameters track the temperature evolution of the magnetic susceptibility.

description: The $^{11}$Be neutron halo nucleus appears to decay into $^{10}$Be with a rate that exceeds expectations. Neutron disappearance into dark matter, beta decay of a halo neutron, or beta-delayed proton decay have been offered as explanations. In this work we study the latter option; we carry out shell model calculations and sequential decay analysis examining the beta-delayed proton decay going through a resonance in $^{11}$B. The narrow energy window, lack of states with sufficient spectroscopic strength, overwhelming alpha decay branch, all make reconciling the observed rate with beta-delayed proton decay difficult.

Les résultats obtenus montrent que la régression linéaire multiple fournit des prévisions de bonne qualité avec un maximum d’erreur absolue moyenne en pourcentage inférieure à 3%. Le but de cette étude est de développer un modèle simple mais performant, qui sera intégré à une plateforme d'aide à la commande du pilotage des bâtiments permettant aux gestionnaires d’anticiper les problèmes d’inconfort thermique et de surconsommation énergétique.

description: La présente étude vise à évaluer l’impact des cycles de gel-dégel sur les propriétés de matériaux biosourcés à base de paille céréalière destinés à l’isolation thermique par extérieur du bâtiment. Deux matériaux de compositions différentes ont été soumis aux cycles de gel-dégel selon le protocole décrit dans la norme EN 15304:2010. Des essais classiques de compression uniaxiale et de conductivité thermique ont été réalisés après 2, 6, et 10 cycles. Des analyses chromatographiques de l’eau d’immersion des échantillons avant le cycle gel-dégel ont été effectuées pour comprendre les mécanismes microstructuraux conduisant à la dégradation des matériaux. Les résultats ont montré un impact significatif des cycles appliqués sur la microstructure des deux matériaux étudiés, et leurs propriétés mécaniques et thermiques macroscopiques.

description: Flax concrete, an alternative material to hemp concrete, has been studied several times because of its interesting hygrothermal and acoustic performances. However, the durability of this material is questionable and there is a lack of knowledge about it. This paper aims to study the evolution of the compressive strength of flax concrete after accelerated ageing. Two different ageing protocols were carried out: immersion-drying (ageing 1) and immersion-freezing-drying (ageing 2). The results show that the compressive strength is initially affected by the length of the flax shive. The reference concrete has a higher strength with larger flax shive, while the impact of ageing is greater compared to concrete with medium flax shive. After intensive hygrothermal solicitations, the compressive strengths decreased, the reduction is higher for ageing 2 compared to ageing 1, which is explained by the thermal solicitation in addition to the hygric solicitation

description: The effect of PT-symmetry breaking in coupled systems with balanced gain and loss has recently attracted considerable attention and has been demonstrated in various photonic, electrical and mechanical systems in the classical regime. Here we generalize the definition of PT symmetry to finite-dimensional open quantum systems, which are described by a Markovian master equation. Specifically, we show that the invariance of this master equation under a certain symmetry transformation implies the existence of stationary states with preserved and broken parity symmetry. As the dimension of the Hilbert space grows, the transition between these two limiting phases becomes increasingly sharp and the classically expected PT-symmetry breaking transition is recovered. This quantum-to-classical correspondence allows us to establish a common theoretical framework to identify and accurately describe PT-symmetry breaking effects in a large variety of physical systems, operated both in the classical and quantum regimes.

description: Different nanofabricated superconducting circuits based on Josephson junctions have already achieved a degree of quantum coherence sufficient to demonstrate coherent superpositions of their quantum states. These circuits are considered for implementing quantum bits, which are the building blocks for the recently proposed quantum computer designs. We report experiments in which the state of a quantum bit circuit, the quantronium, is efficiently manipulated using methods inspired from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR).

description: We outline our plan to develop ProtoEXIST, a balloon-borne prototype experiment for the Energetic X-ray Imaging Survey Telescope (EXIST) for the Black Hole Finder Probe. EXIST will consist of multiple wide-field hard X-ray coded-aperture telescopes. The current design of the EXIST mission employs two types of telescope systems: high energy telescopes (HETs) using CZT detectors, and low energy telescopes (LETs) using Si detectors. With ProtoEXIST, we will develop and demonstrate the technologies required for the EXIST HETs. As part of our development efforts, we also present recent laboratory measurements of the spectral response and efficiency variation of imaging CZT detectors on a fine scale (~0.5 mm). The preliminary results confirm the need for multi-pixel readouts and small inter-pixel gaps to achieve uniform spectral response and high detection efficiency across detectors.

description: L’utilisation de matériaux locaux ainsi que l’absence de liant hydraulique permet de réduire la consommation d’énergie grise due à la construction. C’est dans cet axe de recherche que s’inscrit le projet CobBauge qui a pour objectif le développement de la construction en terre crue. Afin de satisfaire à la réglementation thermique, le dispositif d’un mur avec un mélange de terre-fibres allégée pour l’isolation et un mélange de bauge plus traditionnel pour la résistance mécanique a été adopté. Après une étude de formulation, deux mélanges ont été sélectionnés pour la construction d’un bâtiment pilote. Ce bâtiment sera instrumenté de capteurs de teneurs en eau, de température et de déformation. L’objectif de ce travail est d’étudier les performances environnementales et le comportement in-situ et en temps réel des murs afin d’en modéliser le comportement à long terme.

description: The simultaneous detection of electromagnetic and gravitational waves from the coalescence of two neutron stars (GW170817 and GRB170817A) has ushered in a new era of "multi-messenger" astronomy, with electromagnetic detections spanning from gamma to radio. This great opportunity for new scientific investigations raises the issue of how the available multi-messenger tools can best be integrated to constitute a powerful method to study the transient universe in particular. To facilitate the classification of possible optical counterparts to gravitational-wave events, it is important to optimize the scheduling of observations and the filtering of transients, both key elements of the follow-up process. In this work, we describe the existing workflow whereby telescope networks such as GRANDMA and GROWTH are currently scheduled; we then present modifications we have developed for the scheduling process specifically, so as to face the relevant challenges that have appeared during the latest observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We address issues with scheduling more than one epoch for multiple fields within a skymap, especially for large and disjointed localizations. This is done in two ways: by optimizing the maximum number of fields that can be scheduled, and by splitting up the lobes within the skymap by right ascension to be scheduled individually. In addition, we implement the ability to take previously observed fields into consideration when rescheduling. We show the improvements that these modifications produce in making the search for optical counterparts more efficient, and we point to areas needing further improvement.
