Regularities in the transformation of the oscillating decay rate in moving unstable quantum systems
Creators: name: Giraldi, Filippo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Decay laws of moving unstable quantum systems with oscillating decay rates are analyzed over intermediate times. The transformations of the decay laws at rest and of the intermediate times at rest, which are induced by the change of reference frame, are obtained by decomposing the modulus of the survival amplitude at rest into purely exponential and exponentially damped oscillating modes. The mass distribution density is considered to be approximately symmetric with respect to the mass of resonance. Under determined conditions, the modal decay widths at rest, $Γ_j$, and the modal frequencies of oscillations at rest, $Ω_j$, reduce regularly, $Γ_j/γ$ and $Ω_j/γ$, in the laboratory reference frame. Consequently, the survival probability at rest, the intermediate times at rest and, if the oscillations are periodic, the period of the oscillations at rest transform regularly in the laboratory reference frame according to the same time scaling, over a determined time window. The time scaling reproduces the relativistic dilation of times if the mass of resonance is considered to be the effective mass at rest of the moving unstable quantum system with relativistic Lorentz factor $γ$.

Subjects: subject: Human geography Australia
subject: Aboriginal Australians

description: The aim of this thesis is to explore the theme of man- environment relationships in a continent which was populated by people who appear to have possessed a common cultural background. The conceptual framework of the problem is bound up with the settling of the Australian continent by the Aborigines, and more particularly, how the descendants of these migrants adapted their way of life to the wide range of habitats they encountered in spreading through Australia, and whether such adaptations are visible in the landuse patterns and economic life of the Aborigines.
Peristaltic motion
Creators: name: Parkes, Trevor
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1967
Subjects: subject: Hydrodynamics
subject: Viscosity

description: The study of the flow of an incompressible viscous liquid is greatly simplified if discussion is limited to Stokes flow in which the Reynolds number is small enough for the non-linear inertia forces to be neglected in comparison with the viscous forces so that the equations of motion become linear. The Stokes flow approximation is a suitable model to take for peristaltic motion since the velocities met in practice are small and conditions at infinity are not considered. In this thesis, two dimensional flow through a symmetrical channel and axially symmetric flow through a pipe of circular cross-section are considered. In each case the boundary varies sinusoidally.
qwLSH: Cache-conscious Indexing for Processing Similarity Search Query Workloads in High-Dimensional Spaces

description: Similarity search queries in high-dimensional spaces are an important type of queries in many domains such as image processing, machine learning, etc. Since exact similarity search indexing techniques suffer from the well-known curse of dimensionality in high-dimensional spaces, approximate search techniques are often utilized instead. Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) has been shown to be an effective approximate search method for solving similarity search queries in high-dimensional spaces. Often times, queries in real-world settings arrive as part of a query workload. LSH and its variants are particularly designed to solve single queries effectively. They suffer from one major drawback while executing query workloads: they do not take into consideration important data characteristics for effective cache utilization while designing the index structures. In this paper, we present qwLSH, an index structure for efficiently processing similarity search query workloads in high-dimensional spaces. We intelligently divide a given cache during processing of a query workload by using novel cost models. Experimental results show that, given a query workload, qwLSH is able to perform faster than existing techniques due to its unique cost models and strategies.

description: For two years between 1962 and 1964 I lived among the people of Gohira Union, thana Raozan, in the Chittagong District of East Pakistan, in order to study the domestic and kinship relations of Moslems. The place of study is situated 16 miles north-east of Chittagong, the second largest city of East Pakistan. The 'Union' is an administrative unit extending over an area of approximately 3,496 acres. It is divided into three sub-units or gram, this word being fairly translated into English as 'village'. The three gram are Gohira proper, Dalainagar and Kotwalighona
Blading Phase-Pure Formamidinium-Alloyed Perovskites for High-Efficiency Solar Cells with Low Photovoltage Deficit and Improved Stability

description: Currently, blade-coated perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs), that is, greater than 20%, normally employ methylammonium lead tri-iodide with a sub-optimal bandgap. Alloyed perovskites with formamidinium (FA) cation have narrower bandgap and thus enhance device photocurrent. However, FA-alloyed perovskites show low phase stability and high moisture sensitivity. Here, it is reported that incorporating 0.83 molar percent organic halide salts (OHs) into perovskite inks enables phase-pure, highly crystalline FA-alloyed perovskites with extraordinary optoelectronic properties. The OH molecules modulate the crystal growth, enhance the phase stability, passivate ionic defects at the surface and/or grain boundaries, and enhance the moisture stability of the perovskite film. A high efficiency of 22.0% under 1 sun illumination for blade-coated PSCs is demonstrated with an open-circuit voltage of 1.18 V, corresponding to a very small voltage deficit of 0.33 V, and significantly improved operational stability with 96% of the initial efficiency retained under one sun illumination for 500 h.

description: Tables S1-S6, Figures S1-S4. Proceedings of the Royal Society B, DOI - 10.1098/rspb.2019.1315. Coping with temporal variation in fire requires plants to have plasticity in traits that promote persistence, but how plastic responses to current conditions are affected by past fire exposure remains unknown. We investigate phenotypic divergence between populations of four resprouting grasses exposed to differing experimental fire regimes (annually-burnt or unburnt for >35 years), and test whether divergence persists after plants are grown in a common environment for one year. Traits relating to flowering and biomass allocation were measured before plants were experimentally burnt, and their regrowth was tracked. Genetic differentiation between populations was investigated for a subset of individuals. Historic fire frequency influenced traits relating to flowering and below-ground investment. Previously burnt plants produced more inflorescences and invested proportionally more biomass below ground, suggesting greater capacity for recruitment and resprouting than unburnt individuals. Tiller-scale regrowth rate did not differ between treatments, but prior fire exposure enhanced total regrown biomass in two species. We found no consistent genetic differences between populations suggesting trait differences arose from developmental plasticity. Grass development is influenced by prior fire exposure, independent of current environmental conditions. This priming response to fire, resulting in adaptive trait changes, may produce communities more resistant to future fire regime changes.

description: Ion trap systems are a leading platform for large scale quantum computers. Trapped ion qubit crystals are fully-connected and reconfigurable, owing to their long range Coulomb interaction that can be modulated with external optical forces. However, the spectral crowding of collective motional modes could pose a challenge to the control of such interactions for large numbers of qubits. Here, we show that high-fidelity quantum gate operations are still possible with very large trapped ion crystals, simplifying the scaling of ion trap quantum computers. To this end, we present analytical work that determines how parallel entangling gates produce a crosstalk error that falls off as the inverse cube of the distance between the pairs. We also show experimental work demonstrating entangling gates on a fully-connected chain of seventeen $^{171}{\rm{Yb}}^{+}$ ions with fidelities as high as $97(1)\%$.

description: We consider the diffusion scaling limit of the vicious walker model that is a system of nonintersecting random walks. We prove a functional central limit theorem for the model and derive two types of nonintersecting Brownian motions, in which the nonintersecting condition is imposed in a finite time interval $(0,T]$ for the first type and in an infinite time interval $(0,\infty)$ for the second type, respectively. The limit process of the first type is a temporally inhomogeneous diffusion, and that of the second type is a temporally homogeneous diffusion that is identified with a Dyson's model of Brownian motions studied in the random matrix theory. We show that these two types of processes are related to each other by a multi-dimensional generalization of Imhof's relation, whose original form relates the Brownian meander and the three-dimensional Bessel process. We also study the vicious walkers with wall restriction and prove a functional central limit theorem in the diffusion scaling limit.

description: We analyse the classical and quantum geometry of the Barrett-Crane spin foam model for four dimensional quantum gravity, explaining why it has to be considering as a covariant realization of the projector operator onto physical quantum gravity states. We discuss how causality requirements can be consistently implemented in this framework, and construct causal transiton amplitudes between quantum gravity states, i.e. realising in the spin foam context the Feynman propagator between states. The resulting causal spin foam model can be seen as a path integral quantization of Lorentzian first order Regge calculus, and represents a link between several approaches to quantum gravity as canonical loop quantum gravity, sum-over-histories formulations, dynamical triangulations and causal sets. In particular, we show how the resulting model can be rephrased within the framework of quantum causal sets (or histories).

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: In this work we consider quotients of elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds by freely acting discrete groups and the associated physics of F-theory compactifications on such backgrounds. The process of quotienting a Calabi-Yau geometry produces not only new genus one fibered manifolds, but also new effective 6-dimensional physics. These theories can be uniquely characterized by the much simpler covering space geometry and the symmetry action on it. We use this method to construct examples of F-theory models with an array of discrete gauge groups and non-trivial monodromies, including an example with Z6 discrete symmetry.

description: Background: In Mexico, a 10% tax to sugar-sweetened beverages was implemented in 2014. Projections of the potential health effect of this tax in children are not available. Objective: To estimate the 1-year effect of the tax on the body weight of children 5 to 17 years old, and estimated alternative scenarios with higher tax rates (20%, 30%, and 40%). Methods: We used a dynamical mathematical model, recalibrated to the Mexican population. Input data were obtained from the Mexican National Health and Nutrition Survey 2006 and 2012. We estimated the expected average weight reduction, stratified by category of sugar-sweetened beverages consumption. Results: With a 10% tax, we estimated an overall weight reduction of 0.26 kg for children and 0.61 kg for adolescents; in high consumers, the reduction could reach 0.50 and 0.87 kg, respectively. Higher tax rates would produce larger weight decreases; in high consumers a 40% tax would result in a reduction of 1.99 kg for children and 3.50 kg for adolescents. Conclusion: The tax represents an effective component of any child or adolescent weight control program, and must be considered as part of any integrated population-level program for children and adolescent obesity prevention.
On supplementing shock tube drivers by magnetohydrodynamic interactions
Creators: name: Cashman, John Desmond
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1968
Subjects: subject: Magnetohydrodynamics
subject: Shock waves

description: A magnetohydrodynamic interaction is applied to the driver gas behind a shock propagating along a constant area tube in order to accelerate the shock. It is found that in the expansion fan, which usually matches the driver gas conditions to the shock heated gas conditions, the expanded part is more favourable to shock acceleration by MHD means than the unexpanded part by reason both of the maximum acceleration which may be achieved and of the current required to produce a given acceleration. The variation of current and magnetic field is determined, which, applied to the expansion fan as it passes through the interaction region, maintains the shock speed constant after it has been accelerated. To demonstrate the feasibility of this method of acceleration the results of some experiments are presented in which Mach speeds of shocks have been increased from Ml7 to M22 .

description: We present a kinematical study of RR~Lyrae stars associated with two Oosterhoff groups in the Galactic bulge. We used data published in the first paper of the series, plus proper motions from the {\it Gaia} Data Release 2, and radial velocities from the literature. A 6D kinematical and spatial solution was obtained for 429 RR~Lyrae stars. We use a model of the Galactic gravitational potential to infer stellar orbits. We did not find a difference between the Oosterhoff groups in the individual components of the space velocity. We report that \textit{foreground} and \textit{background} stars with respect to the Galactic bulge stand out in the mean $V$ velocity component, which we interpret as a sign of the Galactic rotation. The movement of the studied stars in the central region of the Galactic bulge is consistent with random motions expected for a classical bulge component. From the orbital integration, we estimate that 8\,\% of the RR~Lyrae stars are halo interlopers currently located in the Galactic bulge. The majority of the stars' orbits are within a 3\,kpc radius from the Galactic bulge. The fraction of Oosterhoff\,II stars increases with increasing Galactic latitude, as well as towards longer orbital periods. We found several RR~Lyrae stars with high space velocities, one of which has an extremely long orbital period of $\sim$1\,Gyr. We conclude that based on their kinematics, the vast majority of the stars in our sample do not seem to contribute to the boxy/peanut component of the Galactic bulge.

This programme has not to be changed from one order to the next and has been used to carry out a much more extensive and systematic study of the higher order contributions, for rigid sphere and Lennard-Jones potentials than the ones available in the literature.

description: The object of this thesis is to throw some light upon Australian party leadership in office. The position is examined in times of crisis in order to illustrate the tactics available to, and factors affecting, any First Minister, in his efforts to remain both Government and party leader. The thesis is based upon fourteen case studies of a variety of crises at both Federal arid State levels between the two world wars. The studies are arranged in party groups, since the First Minister's relations with various sections of his party proved particularly important in the analysis, and it enabled each group to be introduced by an outline of the party's relevant rules, traditions and organisation.

Transverse ionizing shock waves in a planar electromagnetic shock tube
Creators: name: Lee, Sing
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1969
Subjects: subject: Ionization of gases

subject: Shock tubes

description: The Kunkel-Gross-Chapman-Jouguet hypothesis for the propagation of normal ionizing shock waves, was adapted for the description of the transverse ionizing shock waves in the planar electromagnetic shock tube. This was made possible by the adoption of an ohmic dissipation model for the expansion wave, resulting in the choice of the isentropic sound speed as the small disturbance speed. The validity of this choice was established by bow shock measurements. Transverse ionizing shock equilibrium solutions were obtained, based on this C-J model; with extension to the hydromagnetic and the gasdynamic regimes. A new method of Mach Zehnder interferometry, using multi-channel spectra, was used to obtain more accurate measurements, of the electron density and the density ratio, than could be attained by conventional M-Z methods. An approximate probe theory was developed to account for the influence of the bow shock on the measurement of the transverse magnetic field and the total pressure. The pre-shock electric field was also measured. The experiments showed that, in the C-J ionizing regime, the C-J solutions were in fair to good agreement with the measured helium shock properties; and that, when the inclined shock effect was taken into account, similar agreement was observed for the argon shock. In the limit of zero bias field, however, gasdynamic behaviour was not observed. This was attributed to the failure of the shock front to separate from the expansion drive current. A distinction was made between an incomplete separation of the shock front from the expansion current, and a complete separation. Incomplete separation was observed for helium, generally; whilst complete separation was observed for both helium and argon in the C-J ionizing regime; but not in the gasdynamic limit. It was postulated that the presence of an expansion current makes a complete gasdynamic separation impossible; and further, that, at sufficiently high velocities an expansion current may not be required, in which case a complete gasdynamic separation may become possible. In addition, the coupling and decoupling of the back emf's, associated with the motions of the shock front and expansion current, were examined in some detail. A qualitative theory was also proposed to explain the differences between the observed tilts of the helium and argon current sheets.

description: We analyze a bi-gravity model based on the first order formalism, having as fundamental variables two tetrads but only one Lorentz connection. We show that on a large class of backgrounds its linearization agrees with general relativity. At the non-linear level, additional degrees of freedom appear, and we reveal the mechanism hiding them around the special backgrounds. We further argue that they do not contain a massive graviton, nor the Boulware-Deser ghost. The model thus propagates only one graviton, whereas the nature of the additional degrees of freedom remains to be investigated. We also present a foliation-preserving deformation of the model, which keeps all symmetries except time diffeomorphisms and has three degrees of freedom.

description: Equipped with the tools of (spherically reduced) dilaton gravity in first order formulation and with the results for the lowest order S-matrix for s-wave gravitational scattering (P. Fischer, D. Grumiller, W. Kummer, and D. Vassilevich, gr-qc/0105034) new properties of the ensuing cross-section are discussed. We find CPT invariance, despite of the non-local nature of our effective theory and discover pseudo-self-similarity in its kinematic sector. After presenting the Carter-Penrose diagram for the corresponding virtual black hole geometry we encounter distributional contributions to its Ricci-scalar and a vanishing Einstein-Hilbert action for that configuration. Finally, a comparison is done between our (Minkowskian) virtual black hole and Hawking's (Euclidean) virtual black hole bubbles.

description: Within the framework of the generalized QCD factorization formalism, we perform the first global analysis of the jet transport coefficient ($\hat q$) for cold nuclear matter. The analysis takes into account the world data on transverse momentum broadening in semi-inclusive electron-nucleus deep inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan dilepton and heavy quarkonium production in proton-nucleus collisions, as well as the nuclear modification of the structure functions in deep inelastic scattering, comprising a total of 215 data points from 8 data sets. For the first time, we clarify quantitatively the universality and probing scale dependence of the nuclear medium property as encoded in $\hat q$. We expect that the determined parametrization of $\hat q$ in cold nuclear matter will have significant impact on precise identification of the transport property of hot dense medium created in heavy ion collisions.

Building safety into CAR-T therapy

description: Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy is an innovative immunotherapeutic approach that utilizes genetically modified T-cells to eliminate cancer cells using the specificity of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) coupled to the potent cytotoxicity of the T-lymphocyte. CAR-T therapy has yielded significant improvements in relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies. Given these successes, CAR-T has quickly spread to other hematologic malignancies and is being increasingly explored in solid tumors. From early clinical applications to present day, CAR-T cell therapy has been accompanied by significant toxicities, namely cytokine release syndrome (CRS), immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), and on-target off-tumor (OTOT) effects. While medical management has improved for CRS and ICANS, the ongoing threat of refractory symptoms and unanticipated idiosyncratic toxicities highlights the need for more powerful safety measures. This is particularly poignant as CAR T-cell therapy continues to expand into the solid tumor space, where the risk of unpredictable toxicities remains high. We will review CAR-T as an immunotherapeutic approach including emergence of unique toxicities throughout development. We will discuss known and novel strategies to mitigate these toxicities; additional safety challenges in the treatment of solid tumors, and how the inducible Caspase 9 “safety switch” provides an ideal platform for continued exploration.
Accreditation of graduate courses in Brazil: analysing the evaluation of the first proposals of professional doctorates in the country

description: This paper investigates the assessment of the first-ever proposals for accreditation of professional doctorates in Brazil. This modality of course was implemented in the country in 1998 and was designed to bridge the gap between academia and the productive sector, further integrating scientific research and societal needs. At first, the modality was restricted to the master’s level, and only in 2017 new legislation authorised institutions to submit professional doctorate proposals to CAPES: the Brazilian agency in charge of accrediting graduate education. By May 2019, 30 new courses were approved, and this research analysed the evaluation reports of all of the 135 proposals initially submitted, in order to identify the criteria used to either or not accredit the courses. From the coding of such reports, it was also possible to map what the agency expects to see in successful proposals, as well as to ascertain if the evaluation process has been conducted coherently and consistently across different fields. With that, this paper can also be seen as a contribution to Brazilian academia in the design of future professional doctorate proposals.

description: We consider nonholonomic geodesic flows of left-invariant metrics and left-invariant nonintegrable distributions on compact connected Lie groups. The equations of geodesic flows are reduced to the Euler-Poincare-Suslov equations on the corresponding Lie algebras. The Poisson and symplectic structures give raise to various algebraic constructions of the integrable Hamiltonian systems. On the other hand, nonholonomic systems are not Hamiltonian and the integration methods for nonholonomic systems are much less developed. In this paper, using chains of subalgebras, we give constructions that lead to a large set of first integrals and to integrable cases of the Euler-Poincare-Suslov equations. Further, we give examples of nonholonomic geodesic flows that can be seen as a restrictions of integrable sub-Riemannian geodesic flows.

description: Two-dimensional semi-Dirac fermions are quasiparticles that disperse linearly in one direction and quadratically in the other. We investigate instabilities of semi-Dirac fermions towards charge, spin-density wave and superconducting orders, driven by short-range interactions. We analyze the critical behavior of the Yukawa theories for the different order parameters using Wilson momentum shell RG. We generalize to a large number $N_f$ of fermion flavors to achieve analytic control in 2+1 dimensions and calculate critical exponents at one-loop order, systematically including $1/N_f$ corrections. The latter depend on the specific form of the bosonic infrared propagator in 2+1 dimensions, which needs to be included to regularize divergencies. The $1/N_f$ corrections are surprisingly small, suggesting that the expansion is well controlled in the physical dimension. The order-parameter correlations inherit the electronic anisotropy of the semi-Dirac fermions, leading to correlation lengths that diverge along the spatial directions with distinct exponents, even at the mean-field level. We conjecture that the proximity to the critical point may stabilize novel modulated order phases.
