Regularisation : many recipes, but a unique principle : Ward identities and Normalisation conditions. The case of CPT violation in QED

description: We analyse the recent controversy on a possible Chern-Simons like term generated through radiative corrections in QED with a CPT violating term : we prove that, if the theory is correctly defined through Ward identities and normalisation conditions, no Chern-Simons term appears, without any ambiguity. This is related to the fact that such a term is a kind of minor modification of the gauge fixing term, and then no renormalised. The past year literature on that subject is discussed, and we insist on the fact that any absence of an {\sl a priori} divergence should be explained by some symmetry or some non-renormalisation theorem.

description: We present results from deep observations towards the Cygnus region using 300 hours of very-high-energy (VHE) $γ$-ray data taken with the VERITAS Cherenkov telescope array and over seven years of high-energy $γ$-ray data taken with the Fermi satellite at an energy above 1 GeV. As the brightest region of diffuse $γ$-ray emission in the northern sky, the Cygnus region provides a promising area to probe the origins of cosmic rays. We report the identification of a potential Fermi-LAT counterpart to VER J2031+415 (TeV J2032+4130), and resolve the extended VHE source VER J2019+368 into two source candidates (VER J2018+367* and VER J2020+368*) and characterize their energy spectra. The Fermi-LAT morphology of 3FGL 2021.0+4031e (the Gamma-Cygni supernova remnant) was examined and a region of enhanced emission coincident with VER J2019+407 was identified and jointly fit with the VERITAS data. By modeling 3FGL J2015.6+3709 as two sources, one located at the location of the pulsar wind nebula CTB 87 and one at the quasar QSO J2015+371, a continuous spectrum from 1 GeV to 10 TeV was extracted for VER J2016+371 (CTB 87). An additional 71 locations coincident with Fermi-LAT sources and other potential objects of interest were tested for VHE $γ$-ray emission, with no emission detected and upper limits on the differential flux placed at an average of 2.3% of the Crab Nebula ux. We interpret these observations in a multiwavelength context and present the most detailed $γ$-ray view of the region to date.

description: We construct marginal operators of the orbifold SCFT corresponding to all twenty near-horizon moduli in supergravity, including operators involving twist fields which correspond to the blowing up modes. We identify the operators with the supergravity moduli in a 1-1 fashion by inventing a global SO(4) algebra in the SCFT. We analyze the gauge dynamics of the D1/D5 system relevant to the splitting $(Q_1,Q_5)\to (Q'_1,Q'_5)+ (Q''_1,Q''_5)$ with the help of a linear sigma model. We show in supergravity as well as in SCFT that the absorption cross-section for minimal scalars is the same all over the near-horizon moduli space.

description: Examining quantum electrodynamics in non-commutative (NC) spaces along with composite operators in these spaces, we show that i) any charge g for a fermion matter field is allowed provided the basic NC photon-photon coupling is g, however no other multiples of g are permitted and ii) composite operators do not have a simple transformation which can be attributed to the effective total charge of the composite particle. Taken together these results place a limit on the scale of non-commutativity to be at most smaller that current LHC limits for compositeness. Furthermore, they also suggest that a substructure at still smaller scales is needed if such spaces are to be a physical reality.

description: The constituent quark model can explain the strong selectivity of the $Nη$ decay branching ratios of the nucleon resonances if the fine structure interaction between the constituent quarks is described in terms of Goldstone boson exchange. This chiral quark model predicts that the resonances $N(1535)$, $N(1710)$, $Λ(1670)$, $Σ(1750)$, which have mixed flavor and spin symmetry $[21]_{FS} [21]_F [21]_S$ wavefunctions in lowest order, should have large $Nη$ branching ratios, while $Nη$ decay of the other resonances that have different flavor-spin symmetry should be strongly suppressed in agreement with the experimental branching ratios.

The X-ray background and the AGN X-ray luminosity function
Creators: name: Hasinger, Guenther
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: ROSAT deep and shallow surveys have provided an almost complete inventory of the constituents of the soft X-ray background which led to a population synthesis model for the whole X-ray background with interesting cosmological consequences. According to this model the X-ray background is the ``echo'' of mass accretion onto supermassive black holes, integrated over cosmic time. A new determination of the soft X-ray luminosity function of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is inconsistent with pure luminosity evolution. The comoving volume density of AGN at redshift 2-3 approaches that of local normal galaxies. This indicates that many larger galaxies contain black holes and it is likely that the bulk of the black holes was produced before most of the stars in the universe. However, only X-ray surveys in the harder energy bands, where the maximum of the energy density of the X-ray background resides, will provide the acid test of this picture.

Monopoles and Gluon Fields in QCD in the Maximally Abelian Gauge
Creators: name: Ichie, Hiroko

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: We study monopoles and gluon fields in QCD in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge in the context of the dual superconductor picture for confinement. In the abelian gauge, unit-charge magnetic monopoles appear, but multi-charge monopoles do not in general cases. The appearance of the monopole is studied using the gauge-connection formalism in relation to the SU($N_c$) singular gauge transformation. The relevant role of off-diagonal gluons is found for the appearance of monopoles in the abelian gauge in QCD. We study the gluon-field properties around the monopole in the MA gauge in terms of the action density using the lattice QCD. The monopole provides infinitely large field fluctuations in the abelian sector. In the MA gauge, off-diagonal gluons are strongly suppressed but largely remain around the monopole, which indicates the effective size and the structure of monopoles. We find the large cancellation between the abelian part and the off-diagonal part of the action density around the monopole in the MA gauge. Owing to this cancellation, the monopole can appear in QCD without large cost of the QCD action. Finally, we generalize the framework of the abelian projection, {\it i.e.} the extraction of the abelian gauge manifold from QCD, by introducing the `gluonic Higgs field' $\vec ϕ_D[A_μ(x)]$ defined from the ${\rm SU}(N_c)$ covariant derivative $\hat D_μ$. By way of $\vec ϕ_D[A_μ(x)]$, the maximally abelian projection can be performed in the gauge-covariant manner without the notion of gauge fixing in principle.

Heil- und Mineralwässer in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt – Quellen und bohrtechnische Erschließungen von 1737 bis 2023
Creators: name: Wolff, Gerd
Publisher: name: Jahreshefte der Gesellschaft für Naturkunde in Württemberg
Year: 2023

description: Das Stuttgarter Mineralwasservorkommen im Oberen Muschelkalk zählt nach dem von Budapest als das zweitgrößte in Europa. Heute tritt das artesisch gespannte Mineralwasser an 18 gebohrten Fassungen und dem natürlichen Quelltümpel des Mombachs, die mehrheitlich auf Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatter Gebiet liegen, zu Tage. 12 dieser Fassungen sind aufgrund therapeutischer Wirkung als Heilquellen staatlich anerkannt. Früher gab es weit mehr natürliche Mineralquellen. Diese versiegten im Zuge zahlreicher Bohrungen auf artesisches Mineralwasser oder wurden zugeschüttet und überbaut. Einige der einst gebohrten Mineralwasserbrunnen sind bei ähnlicher Vergangenheit in Vergessenheit geraten.
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich auf Grundlage historischer Dokumentationen und aktueller Erkenntnisse mit der Lokalisierung und Analyse der natürlichen und gebohrten Mineralwasseraustritte im Cannstatter Raum. Dabei werden diejenigen im Unteren Nesenbachtal sowie die im Neckartal bei Berg (Wolff 2020, 2022a, 2022b) mitberücksichtigt. Hauptaugenmerk liegt auf deren zeitlicher und räumlicher Entwicklung sowie auf den technischen Ereignissen an den Fassungen. Es wird deutlich, dass neben natürlichen Veränderungen vor allem menschliche Eingriffe Hydrochemie und Schüttung der Mineralwasseraustritte beeinflusst haben. Die Betrachtungen erstrecken sich über den gesamten Zeitraum der technischen Mineralwassererschließung in diesem Gebiet, der von 1737 bis heute reicht. Die hier gewonnenen Erkenntnisse vervollständigen die bisherigen Auffassungen sowohl zur qualitativen als auch quantitativen Vulnerabilität des Stuttgarter Mineralwassersystems im Oberen Muschelkalk. Sie zeigen, dass weiterhin Anstrengungen zu dessen Sicherung notwendig sind.

description: No matter whether you love it, fear it, or are sick of hearing about it, artificial intelligence impacts our lives. In this workshop, we will go beyond what AI tools do (or their creators say they do) and take a hard look at the broader implications of developing and using artificial intelligence. We will explore the power structures that inform the human labor behind AI, as well as the impacts of AI development and use on natural ecosystems, systematic oppression, and information economies. We will also discuss the agency we retain as students, teachers, and lifelong learners to co-create critical frameworks that challenge the inevitability of robot overlords.

We calculate the gravitational self-energies of massive spherical bodies due to the tachyonic exchange, discuss their stability, and find that the gravitational force is screened in a certain number of the extra dimensions. We also derive the exact relationship between the Newton constants in the full 4+D dimensional spacetime with the D extra times and the ordinary Newton constant of our 4 dimensional world.

description: Bit threads provide an alternative description of holographic entanglement, replacing the Ryu-Takayanagi minimal surface with bulk curves connecting pairs of boundary points. We use bit threads to prove the monogamy of mutual information (MMI) property of holographic entanglement entropies. This is accomplished using the concept of a so-called multicommodity flow, adapted from the network setting, and tools from the theory of convex optimization. Based on the bit thread picture, we conjecture a general ansatz for a holographic state, involving only bipartite and perfect-tensor type entanglement, for any decomposition of the boundary into four regions. We also give new proofs of analogous theorems on networks.

description: Mit dem zweiten Teil der Arbeit werden die von Probst (1878) publizierten Arten von Haien der Molasse von Baltringen neu interpretiert und taxonomisch auf den aktuellen Kenntnisstand gebracht. Der Schwerpunkt der Arbeit liegt dabei auf den im Museum der Eberhard Karls Universität von Tübingen liegenden Abbildungsoriginalen bzw. Typen. Das Material wurde auf Vollständigkeit hin überprüft, inventarisiert und im Detail untersucht. Von den 77 abgebildeten Zähnen konnten 75 aufgefunden werden. Dabei handelte es sich um 57 Typen und 18 Abbildungsoriginale. Zwei Zähne (Syntypen) konnten nicht mehr aufgefunden werden, und zwar Tafel 1 Fig. 5 (Carcharias (Hypoprion) singularis) und Fig. 7 (Carcharias (Scoliodon) Kraussi). Ein verwendeter und neu eingeführter Artname wurde als nomen dubium gewertet (Galeus cristatus). Die fossile Gattung Physogaleus wird aufgrund der großen morphologischen Ähnlichkeiten mit der Gattung Galeocerdo der Familie Galeocerdonidae zugeordnet. Die Art „tenuis“, die derzeit zur Gattung Chaenogaleus gezählt wird, wurde aufgrund der mesialen Zähnelung zu Paragaleus gestellt. Ein Syntyp von Galeus tenuis Probst, 1878 (Probst 1878: Taf. 1, Fig. 70) stellt den Erstnachweis von Galeorhinus goncalvesi Antunes, Balbino & Cappetta, 1999 in der Molasse dar. Mit Carcharhinus laevis (Probst, 1878: Taf. 1, Fig. 48) konnte ein bisher unbekannter Vertreter der Requiemhaie nachgewiesen werden.

description: The fitness landscape metaphor plays a central role on the modeling of optimizing principles in many research fields, ranging from evolutionary biology, where it was first introduced, to management research. Here we consider the ensemble of trajectories of the imitative learning search, in which agents exchange information on their fitness and imitate the fittest agent in the population aiming at reaching the global maximum of the fitness landscape. We assess the degree to which the starting and ending points determine the learning trajectories using two measures, namely, the predictability that yields the probability that two randomly chosen trajectories are the same, and the mean path divergence that gauges the dissimilarity between two learning trajectories. We find that the predictability is greater in rugged landscapes than in smooth ones. The mean path divergence, however, is strongly affected by the search parameters -- population size and imitation propensity -- that obliterate the influence of the underlying landscape. The learning trajectories become more deterministic, in the sense that there are fewer distinct trajectories and those trajectories are more similar to each other, with increasing population size and imitation propensity. In addition, we find that the roughness of the learning trajectories, which measures the deviation from additivity of the fitness function, is always greater than the roughness estimated over the entire fitness landscape.

description: We are conducting an experiment to search for WIMPs, or weakly-interacting massive particles, in the galactic halo using terrestrial detectors. This generic class of hypothetical particles, whose properties are similar to those predicted by extensions of the standard model of particle physics, could comprise the cold component of non-baryonic dark matter. We describe our experiment, which is based on cooled germanium and silicon detectors in a shielded low-background cryostat. The detectors achieve a high degree of background rejection through the simultaneous measurement of the energy in phonons and ionization. Using exposures on the order of one kilogram-day from initial runs of our experiment, we have achieved (preliminary) upper limits on the WIMP-nucleon cross section that are comparable to much longer runs of other experiments.

Subjects: Pharmacology

description: The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 is involved in numerous central nervous system disorders. New ways of targeting this receptor for therapeutic benefits involve designing compounds which bind specific areas within the receptor such that unique receptor outcomes can be achieved. My thesis focused on characterising these compounds, what they are able to do, and how they interact with the target receptor.

description: A Hamiltonian analysis of Yang-Mills (YM) theory in (2+1) dimensions with a level $k$ Chern-Simons term is carried out using a gauge invariant matrix parametrization of the potentials. The gauge boson states are constructed and the contribution of the dynamical mass gap to the gauge boson mass is obtained. Long distance properties of vacuum expectation values are related to a Euclidean two-dimensional YM theory coupled to $k$ flavors of Dirac fermions in the fundamental representation. We also discuss the expectation value of the Wilson loop operator and give a comparison with previous results.

description: Causal or unconfounded descriptive comparisons between multiple groups are common in observational studies. Motivated from a racial disparity study in health services research, we propose a unified propensity score weighting framework, the balancing weights, for estimating causal effects with multiple treatments. These weights incorporate the generalized propensity scores to balance the weighted covariate distribution of each treatment group, all weighted toward a common pre-specified target population. The class of balancing weights include several existing approaches such as the inverse probability weights and trimming weights as special cases. Within this framework, we propose a set of target estimands based on linear contrasts. We further develop the generalized overlap weights, constructed as the product of the inverse probability weights and the harmonic mean of the generalized propensity scores. The generalized overlap weighting scheme corresponds to the target population with the most overlap in covariates across the multiple treatments. These weights are bounded and thus bypass the problem of extreme propensities. We show that the generalized overlap weights minimize the total asymptotic variance of the moment weighting estimators for the pairwise contrasts within the class of balancing weights. We consider two balance check criteria and propose a new sandwich variance estimator for estimating the causal effects with generalized overlap weights. We apply these methods to study the racial disparities in medical expenditure between several racial groups using the 2009 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) data. Simulations were carried out to compare with existing methods.

description: Purpose: The purpose of this research was to demonstrate the impact of accounting for age-based radiation response when estimating radiation casualties in a nuclear detonation scenario. Materials and methods: Three nuclear device detonation scenarios were simulated using densely populated regions to compare traditional casualty estimates with age-dependent casualty estimates. Fatalities were estimated using age-based dose-response curves. The surviving population was assumed injured (requiring medical care) if their dose exceeded a lower bound, represented by the minimum dose required to cause deterministic effects, for each age group. Results: In each of the three scenarios, the affected area increased significantly for radiosensitive age groups. In two of the three scenarios, accounting for age-dependent radiosensitivity resulted in up to a 10% increase in fatalities and up to a 12% increase in radiation injuries compared to traditional estimates. This study demonstrates that the differences in casualty estimates are dependent on the relative density and location of radiosensitive populations. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that the inclusion of age-based demographic data and associated dose responses may result in significantly higher estimates of casualties depending on the location and age of the affected population. This information could be useful for the emergency management planning community.

In welchem Abschnitt des Eiszeitalters lebte der Steinheimer Urmensch?
Creators: name: Bloos, Gert
Publisher: name: Jahreshefte der Gesellschaft für Naturkunde in Württemberg
Year: 2023

description: Aus der in Steinheim überlieferten Wechselfolge von Kalt- und Warmzeiten ergibt sich für die Zeit des Steinheimer Urmenschen („Homo steinheimensis Berckhemer 1936“ der Literatur) das Klima-Stadium MIS 9, die zweite Warmzeit nach der drittletzten (Hoßkirch/Elster-) Kaltzeit (MIS 12). Zur Absicherung dafür, dass es in dieser Abfolge keine Schichtlücke im Umfang einer Warm- oder Kaltzeit gibt, wurden Vergleiche mit der Klimaabfolge in weiteren Regionen gezogen.
Im benachbarten Neckartal zeigte sich, dass die Holstein-Warmzeit (MIS 11) älter ist als die Ausräumung der Elster-zeitlichen Terrasse, die während der initialen Phase der Fuhne-Kaltzeit (MIS 10) erfolgt ist. Der warmzeitliche Schotter mit dem Steinheimer Urmenschen wurde dagegen erst nach der Ausräumung der Elster-zeitlichen Terrasse sedimentiert, was MIS 9 bestätigt.
Nicht nur in Steinheim, sondern auch in der Saale-Unstrut-Region (Thüringen und Sachsen-Anhalt) kommt der Steinheimer Steppenelefant (Mammuthus trogontherii fraasi) vor, und zwar im Klima-Stadium MIS 8, somit wie in der Steinheimer Klimaabfolge. Auch dies bestätigt das unmittelbar vorausgehende MIS 9-Alter des Steinheimer Urmenschen. Damit beruht dessen stratigraphische Stellung auf unterschiedlichen, voneinander unabhängigen Kriterien. Das Ergebnis, MIS 9, entspricht nach der MIS-Skala einem Altersbereich zwischen 337.000 und 300.000 Jahren. Das Alter des Schädels wird hier aufgrund unterschiedlicher Überlegungen zwischen 320.000 und 330.000 Jahren geschätzt.

description: We numerically study the dynamical evolution of observed samples of active and inactive Centaurs and clones that reach the Jupiter-Saturn region. Our aim is to compare the evolution between active and inactive Centaurs, their end states and their transfer to Jupiter family comets and Halley-type comets. We find that the median lifetime of inactive Centaurs is about twice longer than that for active Centaurs, suggesting that activity is related to the residence time in the region. This view is strengthened by the observation that high-inclination and retrograde Centaurs (Tisserand parameters with respect to Jupiter $T_J < 2$) which have the longest median dynamical lifetime ($=1.37 \times 10^6$ yr) are all inactive. We also find that the perihelion distances of some active, comet-like Centaurs have experienced drastic drops of a few au in the recent past ($\sim 10^2-10^3$ yr), while such drops are not found among inactive Centaurs. Inactive Centaurs with $T_J \lsim 2.5$ usually evolve to Halley-type comets, whereas inactive Centaurs with $T_J \gsim 2.5$ and active Centaurs (that also have $T_J \gsim 2.5$) evolve almost always to Jupiter family comets and very seldom to Halley type comets. Inactive Centaurs are also more prone to end up as sungrazers, and both inactive and active Centaurs transit through different mean motion resonances (generally with Jupiter) during their evolution.

description: Rentierflechten zählen zu den bekanntesten Flechten überhaupt. Sie sind die einzigen FFH-Arten in dieser Organismengruppe. Bestandszahlen, -größen und -veränderungen sind daher von besonderem Interesse. In Baden-Württemberg kommen 7 Arten dieser Cladonia-Untergattung vor. Zwischen 1980 und 2023 wurden an 191 Lokalitäten 393 Populationen von Rentierflechtenarten in Baden-Württemberg gefunden. Mit Abstand sind Cladonia arbuscula und C. rangiferina die häufigsten Arten (mit rund 140 Nachweisen), gefolgt von C. portentosa (65) und C. ciliata (26). Sehr selten sind C. stygia und die Alpen-Rentierflechte C. stellaris (je 4 Nachweise). Von letzterer sind zwei der vier beobachteten Vorkommen erloschen, ein drittes erscheint nicht überlebensfähig. Große Einbußen sind auch bei Cladonia portentosa festzustellen. Im Schwäbisch-Fränkischen Wald ist diese Flechte am Aussterben. Alle Arten sind im Schwarzwald am stärksten vertreten. Gefährdet erscheinen alle Vorkommen außerhalb der Naturräume Schwarzwald und Odenwald. Als bedeutendste Ursache des allgemeinen Rückgangs von Rentierflechten wird die Meliorierung von Magerrasen und die Eutrophierung aus der Luft angesehen, die auch für Habitate im Wald relevant ist. Lokal ist Ziegenbeweidung schädlich. Die Rentierflechten sind häufig Bestandteil von Pflanzengesellschaften; eine enge Anbindung an bestimmte Gesellschaften ist im Land außer bei Cladonia stygia nicht erkennbar.

description: An approach to find the field equation solution of the Randall-Sundrum model with the $S^1/Z_2$ extra axis is presented. We closely examine the infrared singularity. The vacuum is set by the 5 dimensional Higgs field. Both the domain-wall and the anti-domain-wall naturally appear, at the {\it ends} of the extra compact axis, by taking a {\it new infrared regularization}. The stability is guaranteed from the outset by the kink boundary condition. A {\it continuous} (infrared-)regularized solution, which is a truncated {\it Fourier series} of a {\it discontinuous} solution, is utilized.The ultraviolet-infrared relation appears in the regularized solution.

description: Ventricular Fibrillation (VF), one of the most dangerous arrhythmias, is responsible for sudden cardiac arrests. Thus, various algorithms have been developed to predict VF from Electrocardiogram (ECG), which is a binary classification problem. In the literature, we find a number of algorithms based on signal processing, where, after some robust mathematical operations the decision is given based on a predefined threshold over a single value. On the other hand, some machine learning based algorithms are also reported in the literature; however, these algorithms merely combine some parameters and make a prediction using those as features. Both the approaches have their perks and pitfalls; thus our motivation was to coalesce them to get the best out of the both worlds. Hence we have developed, VFPred that, in addition to employing a signal processing pipeline, namely, Empirical Mode Decomposition and Discrete Time Fourier Transform for useful feature extraction, uses a Support Vector Machine for efficient classification. VFPred turns out to be a robust algorithm as it is able to successfully segregate the two classes with equal confidence (Sensitivity = 99.99%, Specificity = 98.40%) even from a short signal of 5 seconds long, whereas existing works though requires longer signals, flourishes in one but fails in the other.
