description: P. Van Dooren (1979) constructed an algorithm for computing all singular summands of Kronecker's canonical form of a matrix pencil. His algorithm uses only unitary transformations, which improves its numerical stability. We extend Van Dooren's algorithm to square complex matrices with respect to consimilarity transformations and to pairs of m-by-n complex matrices.

Acoustic Lanes and Auditory Leads: Spatio-Temporalities of Social Acoustics and Public Address Systems in Late Weimar Germany

description: Soundscape Studies are rooted in a compositional approach to space and spatio-temporal constellations (Schafer 1973). It is about notation and measurement. In this respect, doing space and sound is linked to practices, knowledge and compounds of acoustic (physical) and auditory (physiological) information. Following this perspective, noise or sound, both socially or culturally constructed, are subfunctions of what frequencies, incident energies, loudness or threshold values. Spatiality and temporality are calculable conditions. This contribution highlights another approach. It refers to two concepts, acoustic lanes (Rosenstock-Huessy 1956) and auditory leads (Anders 1992), that are derived from practical philosophy and its connections to analysis of media and interpersonal communication and to the shaping of noise and sound. Both concepts are gauging acoustic material and its information value along the lines of being ‘useful’ or ‘applicable’ or ‘common’ or whether it can be labelled as a ‘nuisance.’ Taking these designations on board, I explore the social acoustics of noise and sound in Interwar Germany when decoding public addressing systems and the evaluation of ‘good’ sound in urban spaces. Thereby, I challenge the polyvalent concept of acoustic branding as it has evolved since the time when instruments of signaling and alarming began competing with the polyphonies of urban streets and spaces in 1920 and 1930s Europe especially. In addition, I shed light on the modes of how the politics of acoustic management of spaces, temporal situations, moods, and masses has been conducted and professionalized. Diagnosing those relations and its contents, I do, secondly, follow the echoes that sound and noise disposed in scholarly reflections and how émigrés like Rosenstock-Huessy and Anders emphasized the enticing and misleading capacities of phasing audiences and publics. My notion of social acoustics is therefore shaped by the interconnectedness of behaviour, self-convergence of individuals with groups and technologies.

description: We have found a new class of time dependent partial waves which are solutions of time dependent Schrödinger equation for three dimensional harmonic oscillator. We also showed the decomposition of coherent states of harmonic oscillator into these partial waves. This decomposition appears perticularly convenient for a description of the dynamics of a wave packet representing a particle with spin when the spin--orbit interaction is present in the hamiltonian. An example of an evolution of a localized wave packet into a torus and backwards, for a particular initial conditions is analysed in analytical terms and shown with a computer graphics.

description: HIRMES is a far-infrared spectrometer that was chosen as the third generation instrument for NASA's SOFIA airborne observatory. HIRMES promises background limited performance in four modes that cover the wavelength range between 25 and 122 $μ$m. The high-spectral resolution ($R \approx 10^5$) mode is matched to achieve maximum sensitivity on velocity-resolved lines to study the evolution of protoplanetary disks. The mid-resolution ($R \approx 12, 000$) mode is suitable for high sensitivity imaging of galactic star formation regions in, for example, the several far-infrared fine structure lines. The low-resolution ($R \approx 2000$) imaging mode is optimized for spectroscopic mapping of far-infrared fine structure lines from nearby galaxies, while the low resolution ($R \approx 600$) grating spectrometer mode is optimized for detecting dust and ice features in protostellar and protoplanetary disks. Several Transition Edge Sensed (TES) bolometer arrays will provide background limited sensitivity in each of these modes. To optimize performance in the various instrument modes, HIRMES employs eight unique fully-tunable cryogenic Fabry-Perot Interferometers (FPIs) and a grating spectrometer. Here we present the design requirements and the mechanical and optical characteristics and performance of these tunable FPI as well as the control electronics that sets the mirror separation and allows scanning of the FPIs.

The extraction is performed in a physics model independent (PMI) way. This first measurement of Delta xF_3, which is useful in testingmodels of heavy charm production, is higher than current theoretical predictions. The ratio of the F_2(PMI) values measured in nu_mu and nubar_mu scattering is in agreement (within 5%) with the predictions of NLO PDFS using massive charm production schemes, thus resolvin long-standing discrepancy between the two sets of data.

description: Empirical research suggests that the cognitively able are politically more influential than the less able, by being more likely to vote and to assume leadership positions. This study asks whether this pattern matters for public policy by investigating what role a person's cognitive ability plays in determining his preferences for redistribution of income among citizens in society. To answer this question, we use a unique Swedish data set that matches responses to a tailor-made questionnaire to administrative tax records and to military enlistment records for men, with the latter containing a measure of cognitive ability. On a scale of 0 to 100 percent redistribution, a one-standard-deviation increase in cognitive ability reduces the willingness to redistribute by 5 percentage points, or by the same amount as a $35,000 increase in mean annual income. We find support for two channels mediating this economically strong and statistically significant relation. First, higher ability is associated with higher income. Second, ability is positively correlated with the view that economic success is the result of effort, rather than luck. Both these factors are, in turn, related to lower demand for redistribution
New mechanism of collapse and revival in wave packet dynamics due to spin-orbit interaction

description: The article discusses the properties of time evolution of wave packets in a few systems. Dynamics of wave packet motion for Rydberg atoms with the hierarchy of collapses and revivals is briefly reviewed. The main part of the paper focuses on the new mechanism of quantum reccurrences in wave packet dynamics. This mechanism can occur (in principle) in any physical system with strong enough spin-orbit interaction. We discuss here the SPIN_ORBIT PENDULUM effect that consists in different motions of subpackets possessing different spin fields and results in oscillations of a fraction of average angular momentum between spin and ordinary subspaces. The evolution of localized wave packet into toroidal objects and backwards (for other class of initial conditions) is also subject to discussion.

The results show one-parameter scaling. The size-independent universality of the critical level spacing distribution allows to detect with high precision the critical disorder $W_{c}=16.35$. The scaling properties yield the critical exponent, $ν=1.45 \pm 0.08$, and the disorder dependence of the correlation length.

Real-time microwave imaging of unknown anomalies via scattering matrix
Creators: name: Park, Won-Kwang
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We consider an inverse scattering problem to identify the locations or shapes of unknown anomalies from scattering parameter data collected by a small number of dipole antennas. Most of researches does not considered the influence of dipole antennas but in the experimental simulation, they are significantly affect to the identification of anomalies. Moreover, opposite to the theoretical results, it is impossible to handle scattering parameter data when the locations of the transducer and receiver are the same in real-world application. Motivated by this, we design an imaging function with and without diagonal elements of the so-called scattering matrix. This concept is based on the Born approximation and the physical interpretation of the measurement data when the locations of the transducer and receiver are the same and different. We carefully explore the mathematical structures of traditional and proposed imaging functions by finding relationships with the infinite series of Bessel functions of integer order. The explored structures reveal certain properties of imaging functions and show why the proposed method is better than the traditional approach. We present the experimental results for small and extended anomalies using synthetic and real data at several angular frequencies to demonstrate the effectiveness of our technique.

description: A longstanding puzzle concerns the calculation of the gluino condensate = cΛ^3 in N=1 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory: so-called weak-coupling instanton (WCI) calculations give c=1, whereas strong-coupling instanton (SCI) calculations give, instead, c=2[(N-1)!(3N-1)]^{-1/N}. By examining correlators of this condensate in arbitrary multi-instanton sectors, we cast serious doubt on the SCI calculation of by showing that an essential step --- namely cluster decomposition --- is invalid. We also show that the addition of a so-called Kovner-Shifman vacuum (in which = 0) cannot straightforwardly resolve this mismatch.

Robust Transiting Exoplanet Radii in the Presence of Starspots from Ingress and Egress Durations

description: We typically measure the radii of transiting exoplanets from the transit depth, which is given by the ratio of cross-sectional areas of the planet and star. However, if a star has dark starspots (or bright regions) distributed throughout the transit chord, the transit depth will be biased towards smaller (larger) values, and thus the inferred planet radius will be smaller (larger) if unaccounted for. We reparameterize the transit light curve to account for "self-contamination" by photospheric inhomogeneities by splitting the parameter $R_p/R_\star$ into two parameters: one for the radius ratio -- which controls the duration of ingress and egress -- and another which measures the possibly contaminated transit depth. We show that this is equivalent to the formulation for contamination by a second star (with positive or negative flux), and that it is sensitive to time-steady inhomogeneity of the stellar photosphere. We use synthetic light curves of spotted stars at high signal-to-noise to show that the radius recovered from measurement of the ingress/egress duration can recover the true radii of planets transiting spotted stars with axisymmetric spot distributions if the limb-darkening parameters are precisely known. We fit time-averaged high signal-to-noise transit light curves from Kepler and Spitzer of ten planets to measure the planet radii and search for evidence of spot distributions. We find that this sample has a range of measured depths and ingress durations which are self-consistent, providing no strong evidence for contamination by spots. However, there is suggestive evidence for occultation of starspots on Kepler-17, and that relatively bright regions are occulted by the planets of Kepler-412 and HD 80606. Future observations with the James Webb Space Telescope may enable this technique to yield accurate planetary radii in the presence of stellar inhomogeneities.

description: Biometric measurements captured from medical devices, such as blood pressure gauges, glucose monitors, and weighing scales, are essential to tracking a patient's health. Trends in these measurements can accurately track diabetes, cardiovascular issues, and assist medication management for patients. Currently, patients record their results and data of measurement in a physical notebook. It may be weeks before a doctor sees a patient's records and can assess the health of the patient. With a predicted 6.8 billion smartphones in the world by 2022, health monitoring platforms, such as Apple's HealthKit, can be leveraged to provide the right care at the right time. This research presents a mobile application that enables users to capture medical monitor data and send it to their doctor swiftly. A key contribution of this paper is a robust engine that can recognize digits from medical monitors with an accuracy of 98.2%.

description: X-ray observations of bright AGNs in or behind galaxy clusters offer unique capabilities to constrain axion-like particles (ALPs). Existing analysis technique rely on measurements of the global goodness-of-fit. We develop a new analysis methodology that improves the statistical sensitivity to ALP-photon oscillations by isolating the characteristic quasi-sinusoidal modulations induced by ALPs. This involves analysing residuals in wavelength space allowing the Fourier structure to be made manifest as well as a machine learning approach. For telescopes with microcalorimeter resolution, simulations suggest these methods give an additional factor of two in sensitivity to ALPs compared to previous approaches.

A method using detector noise groups should work well for modular particle detectors such as segmented electromagnetic calorimeters, plastic scintillator hodoscopes, cathode strip wire chambers, segmented active targets, and the like. We demonstrate a ``second pedestal noise correction'' method by comparing representative ADC pedestal spectra for various elements of the PIBETA detector before and after the applied correction.

Doublet-Triplet Splitting and Fermion Masses with Extra Dimensions

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

description: The pseudo-Goldstone boson mechanism for the ``doublet-triplet splitting'' problem of the grand unified theory can be naturally implemented in the scenario with extra dimensions and branes. The two SU(6) global symmetries of the Higgs sector are located on two separate branes while the SU(6) gauge symmetry is in the bulk. After including several vector-like fields in the bulk, and allowing the most general interactions with their natural strength (including the higher dimensional ones which may be generated by gravity) which are consistent with the geometry, a realistic pattern of the Standard Model fermion masses and mixings can be naturally obtained without any flavor symmetry. Neutrino masses and mixings required for the solar and atmospheric neutrino problems can also be accommodated. The geometry of extra dimensions and branes provides another way to realize the absence of certain interactions (as required in the pseudo-Goldstone boson mechanism) or the smallness of some couplings (e.g., the Yukawa couplings between the fermions and the Higgs bosons), in addition to the usual symmetry arguments.

Linked Cluster Expansion Around Mean-Field Theories of Interacting Electrons
Creators: name: Janis, Vaclav

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A general expansion scheme based on the concept of linked cluster expansion from the theory of classical spin systems is constructed for models of interacting electrons. It is shown that with a suitable variational formulation of mean-field theories at weak (Hartree-Fock) and strong (Hubbard-III) coupling the expansion represents a universal and comprehensive tool for systematic improvements of static mean-field theories. As an example of the general formalism we investigate in detail an analytically tractable series of ring diagrams that correctly capture dynamical fluctuations at weak coupling. We introduce renormalizations of the diagrammatic expansion at various levels and show how the resultant theories are related to other approximations of similar origin. We demonstrate that only fully self-consistent approximations produce global and thermodynamically consistent extensions of static mean field theories. A fully self-consistent theory for the ring diagrams is reached by summing the so-called noncrossing diagrams.

Studying the Kinetics of a Self-propelled Cruiser in 2D Granular Media under Gravity
Creators: name: Gao, Guo-Jie J.

Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a cruiser able to move in a granular medium made of nearly 50-50 bidisperse dissipative particles under gravity. The cruiser has a circular shape with a square indentation on its edge. By shifting and then ejecting granular particles entering its indent-region facing a given direction, the cruiser gains thrust to push itself forward in the same direction, which can be either perpendicular or parallel to gravity. Using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we identify three universal phases during one particle-ejection process: 1) acceleration by the ejection thrust, 2) deceleration by the compressed particles ahead and 3) relaxation with the decompressed particles. We also confirm that the cruising capability improves with increasing the particle-ejection strength and with decreasing the interference from gravity.

Tuning vortex fluctuations and the resistive transition in superconducting films with a thin overlayer
Creators: name: Gurevich, Alex
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It is shown that the temperature of the resistive transition $T_r$ of a superconducting film can be increased by a thin superconducting or normal overlayer. For instance, deposition of a highly conductive thin overlayer onto a dirty superconducting film can give rise to an "anti-proximity effect" which manifests itself in an initial increase of $T_r(d_2)$ with the overlayer thickness $d_2$ followed by a decrease of $T_r(d_2)$ at larger $d_2$. Such a nonmonotonic thickness dependence of $T_r(d_2)$ results from the interplay of the increase of a net superfluid density mitigating phase fluctuations and the suppression of the critical temperature $T_c$ due to the conventional proximity effect. This behavior of $T_r(d_2)$ is obtained by solving the Usadel equations to calculate the temperature of the Berezinskii-Kosterletz-Thouless transition, and the temperature of the resistive transition due to thermally-activated hopping of single vortices in dirty bilayers. The theory incorporates relevant materials parameters such as thicknesses and conductivities of the layers, interface contact resistance between them and the subgap quasiparticle states which affect both phase fluctuations and the proximity effect suppression of $T_c$. The transition temperature $T_r$ can be optimized by tuning the overlayer parameters, which can significantly weaken vortex fluctuations and nearly restore the mean-field critical temperature. The calculated behavior of $T_r(d_2)$ may explain the nonmonotonic dependence of $T_r(d_2)$ observed on (Ag, Au, Mg, Zn)-coated Bi films, Ag-coated Ga and Pb films or NbN and NbTiN films on AlN buffer layers. These results suggest that bilayers can be used as model systems for systematic investigations of optimization of fluctuations in superconductors.

description: We compute the Nash blow-up of a cominuscule Schubert variety. In particular, we show that the Nash blow-up is algebraically isomorphic to another Schubert variety of the same Lie type. As a consequence, we give a new characterization of the smooth locus and, for Grassmannian Schubert varieties, determine when the Nash blow-up is a resolution of singularities. We also study the induced torus action on the Nash blow-up and give a bijection between its torus fixed points and Peterson translates on the Schubert variety.

description: KamLAND has been used to measure the flux of $\bar{\nu}_e$'s from distant nuclear reactors. In an exposure of 162 ton$\cdot$yr (145.1 days) the ratio of the number of observed inverse $\beta$-decay events to the expected number of events without disappearance is $0.611\pm 0.085 {\rm (stat)} \pm 0.041 {\rm (syst)} $ for $\bar{\nu}_e$ energies $>$ 3.4 MeV. The deficit of events is inconsistent with the expected rate for standard $\bar{\nu}_e$ propagation at the 99.95% confidence level. In the context of two-flavor neutrino oscillations with CPT invariance, these results exclude all oscillation solutions but the `Large Mixing Angle' solution to the solar neutrino problem using reactor $\bar{\nu}_e$ sources.

description: The renormalization factor relating the bare to the renormalization group invariant quark masses is accurately calculated in quenched lattice QCD using a recursive finite-size technique. The result is presented in the form of a product of a universal factor times another factor, which depends on the details of the lattice theory but is easy to compute, since it does not involve any large scale differences. As a byproduct the Lambda-parameter of the theory is obtained with a total error of 8%.

description: Light detection and ranging (LIDAR) has been evolving for over forty years and has become a wide used technology that most people see or utilize almost daily. It was initially used as a ground based system to map particles in our atmosphere. This technology has spread into Archeology, Agriculture, Meteorology and Atmospheric Environment, Biology and Conservation, Law Enforcement, Autonomous driving, and the focus of this thesis is mapping. The main focus of this thesis is the process of mapping areas with LIDAR data and comparing the accuracy with older elevation data; Shuttle Radar Topography Mission, SRTM. For processing data, we go through four separate phases depending on your data and desired final product. Initially, it is recommended to perform quality checks, data preparation, derivative production, and finally editing the LAS files before distribution. The first product was processing raw LIDAR data and covering it with imagery for the Kameni Islands of the Santorini caldera in Greece. The main product was for the Naval Surface warfare Center outside of Washington DC along the Potomac River. I downloaded LIDAR data and cut an area of interest from Open Topography. I then downloaded imagery and SRTM data from United States Geological Survey, USGS, Earth Explorer for comparing the LIDAR data to Imagery and SRTM. Next, I was able to find survey control points in the region from the National Geodetic Survey, NGS, data explorer to compare the LIDAR data to the survey control points. We finally compared the final LIDAR data with SRTM data. SRTM data has larger point spacing and an accuracy of ~20 meter horizontal and ~10 meter vertical accuracy compared to the LIDAR data that is ~3 meter and between centimeter and decimeter vertical accuracy. There was also some data processing for terrestrial LIDAR survey for an area near Prescott, Arizona. Introduction This paper first explains what LIDAR is, how it is used, and the advancement of this technology towards better accuracy and efficiency of modern day mapping. First, the paper will explain what LIDAR is and how it has progressed to its current modern day technology. Then we will look at the different factors that make up LIDAR and how it factors in the final finished product. Finally, we will look at the products that are utilized and created to solve problems. Problem There are numerous elevation datasets available depending on the desired final product and location. LIDAR data is more accurate and denser than SRTM, DTED, etc. After finding the LIDAR data, depending on the data and final product, numerous different processes will need to be performed.

description: We explore an alternative to the usual procedure of scanning for determining the properties of a narrow $s$-channel resonance. By varying the beam energy resolution while sitting on the resonance peak, the width and branching ratios of the resonance can be determined. The statistical accuracy achieved is superior to that of the usual scan procedure in the case of a light SM-like Higgs boson with $\mh>130\gev$ or for the lightest pseudogoldstone boson of a strong electroweak breaking model if $\mpzero>150\gev$.
