description: A great number of problems of relativistic position in quantum mechanics are due to the use of coordinates which are not inherent objects of spacetime, cause unnecessary complications and can lead to misconceptions. We apply a coordinate-free approach to rule out such problems. Thus it will be clear, for example, that the Lorentz covariance of position, required usually on the analogy of Lorentz covariance of spacetime coordinates, is not well posed and we show that in a right setting the Newton--Wigner position is Poincaré covariant, in contradiction with the usual assertions.

These observations were obtained as part of an X-ray, weak lensing, and SZE survey of nearby X-ray bright clusters. The SZE maps were made with the ACBAR (150, 210, 275 GHz) bolometer array installed at the Viper telescope located at the South Pole. We also present preliminary results from a blind SZE cluster survey.

Cosmo-dynamics and dark energy with a quadratic EoS: anisotropic models, large-scale perturbations and cosmological singularities

description: In general relativity, for fluids with a linear equation of state (EoS) or scalar fields, the high isotropy of the universe requires special initial conditions, and singularities are anisotropic in general. In the brane world scenario anisotropy at the singularity is suppressed by an effective quadratic equation of state. There is no reason why the effective EoS of matter should be linear at the highest energies, and a non-linear EoS may describe dark energy or unified dark matter (Paper I, astro-ph/0512224). In view of this, here we study the effects of a quadratic EoS in homogenous and inhomogeneous cosmological models in general relativity, in order to understand if in this context the quadratic EoS can isotropize the universe at early times. With respect to Paper I, here we use the simplified EoS P=alpha rho + rho^2/rho_c, which still allows for an effective cosmological constant and phantom behavior, and is general enough to analyze the dynamics at high energies. We first study anisotropic Bianchi I and V models, focusing on singularities. Using dynamical systems methods, we find the fixed points of the system and study their stability. We find that models with standard non-phantom behavior are in general asymptotic in the past to an isotropic fixed point IS, i.e. in these models even an arbitrarily large anisotropy is suppressed in the past: the singularity is matter dominated. Using covariant and gauge invariant variables, we then study linear perturbations about the homogenous and isotropic spatially flat models with a quadratic EoS. We find that, in the large scale limit, all perturbations decay asymptotically in the past, indicating that the isotropic fixed point IS is the general asymptotic past attractor for non phantom inhomogeneous models with a quadratic EoS.

Chirp Mixing

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we develop the theory of chirp mixing. The working principle is simple, given coupled homonuclear spins with offsets in range [-B, B], we adiabatically sweep through the resonances. This achieves cross polarization between the z magnetization of the coupled spins. We repeat this basic operation many times with a supercycle to achieve appropriate mixing time. When we sweep through the resonances, midway between the resonances of the coupled spin I and S, the effective field seen by two spins is the same and hence they precess at same frequency around their effective fields. This means the coupling, which normally gets averaged due to the chemical shift difference is no more averaged for a short time and we get mixing. In this paper, we develop these basic ideas. By virtue of its design, the chirp mixing is much more broadband compared to state of the art methods. The proposed methodology is demonstrated on 13C mixing in a sample of Alanine.

description: As the result of inaccuracy in determining the number of servers in a queue can affect the number of underserved customers or out of the queue Whereas, too many servers can lead to excessive expenses. Queuing model discussed in this study is [ ] [ ] / / model. The process (, ) served by many servers (denoted by C ) with FIFO (First In First Out ) queuing principle. The results of research on K = 200, λ = 2, μ = 20 with a duration of 1-6 hours and served with 10 servers makes the average of utility server is 0.9657. Thus, the given time duration to serve is inadequate. If it is served by 20 servers then the average of utility server is 0.6402, which is very adequate number of servers needed. Whilst, the use of 30 servers makes the average of utility server is 0.4460 which causes the idle servers.

description: We present the results of a photometric and spectroscopic survey of the globular cluster system of NGC 5128 (Centaurus A), a galaxy whose proximity makes it an important target for early-type galaxy studies. We imaged three fields in UBVRI that extend 50 and 30 kpc along the major and minor axes, respectively. We used both color and size information to develop efficient selection criteria for differentiating between star clusters and foreground stars. In total, we obtained new velocities for 138 globular clusters, nearly tripling the number of known clusters, and bringing the confirmed total in NGC 5128 to 215. We present a full catalog of all known GCs, with their positions, photometry, and velocities. In addition, we present catalogs of other objects observed, such as foreground stars, background galaxies, three Galactic white dwarfs, seven background QSOs, and 52 optical counterparts to known X-ray point sources. We also report an observation of the cluster G169, in which we confirm the existence of a bright emission line object. This object, however, is unlikely to be a planetary nebula, but may be a supernova remnant.

description: We present a method for the determination of the completely positive (CP) map describing a physical device based on random preparation of the input states, random measurements at the output, and maximum-likelihood principle. In the numerical implementation the constraint of completely positivity can be imposed by exploiting the isomorphism between linear transformations from Hilbert spaces $\cal H$ to $\cal K$ and linear operators in ${\cal K}\otimes {\cal H}$. The effectiveness of the method is shown on the basis of some examples of reconstruction of CP maps related to quantum communication channels for qubits.

description: We present a study of the nearby post-merger giant elliptical galaxy, NGC 5128 (Centaurus A), in which we use the properties of its globular cluster (GC) and planetary nebula (PN) systems to constrain its evolution. Using photometric and spectroscopic data for 215 GCs presented in Paper I, we study trends in age, metallicity, and kinematics for the GC system. We confirm that the GC metallicity distribution is bimodal, and show that these two sub-populations have different properties. Using spectral line index measurements of the brightest clusters, the metal-poor GCs have old ages like the Milky Way globular clusters, while the metal-rich GCs have H-beta line-strengths that could be interpreted as a mean age of ~5 (+3/-2) Gyr. Both populations appear to have [Mg/Fe] ratios consistent with that of the Galactic GC system, although this quantity is not very well-constrained. The kinematics of the metal-rich GCs are similar to those of the planetary nebulae, exhibiting significant rotation about a misaligned axis, while the metal-poor GCs have a higher velocity dispersion and show a weaker kinematic correlation with the field stars. The total gravitating mass of NGC 5128 derived from the GCs is in excellent agreement with the value derived from stellar (PN) kinematics. We suggest that these and other data support a picture in which the main body of NGC 5128 was formed 3-8 Gyr ago by the dissipational merger of two unequal-mass disk galaxies supplemented by the continual accretion of both gas-rich and gas-poor satellites.

description: Motivation: Although there is a rich literature on methods for assessing the impact of functional predictors, the focus has been on approaches for dimension reduction that can fail dramatically in certain applications. Examples of standard approaches include functional linear models, functional principal components regression, and cluster-based approaches, such as latent trajectory analysis. This article is motivated by applications in which the dynamics in a predictor, across times when the value is relatively extreme, are particularly informative about the response. For example, physicians are interested in relating the dynamics of blood pressure changes during surgery to post-surgery adverse outcomes, and it is thought that the dynamics are more important when blood pressure is significantly elevated or lowered. Methods: We propose a novel class of extrema-weighted feature (XWF) extraction models. Key components in defining XWFs include the marginal density of the predictor, a function up-weighting values at high quantiles of this marginal, and functionals characterizing local dynamics. Algorithms are proposed for fitting of XWF-based regression and classification models, and are compared with current methods for functional predictors in simulations and a blood pressure during surgery application. Results: XWFs find features of intraoperative blood pressure trajectories that are predictive of postoperative mortality. By their nature, most of these features cannot be found by previous methods.

description: Ground state cooling and coherent manipulation of ions in an rf-(Paul) trap is the prerequisite for quantum information experiments with trapped ions. With resolved sideband cooling on the optical S1/2 - D5/2 quadrupole transition we have cooled one and two 40Ca+ ions to the ground state of vibration with up to 99.9% probability. With a novel cooling scheme utilizing electromagnetically induced transparency on the S1/2 - P1/2 manifold we have achieved simultaneous ground state cooling of two motional sidebands 1.7 MHz apart. Starting from the motional ground state we have demonstrated coherent quantum state manipulation on the S1/2 - D5/2 quadrupole transition at 729 nm. Up to 30 Rabi oscillations within 1.4 ms have been observed in the motional ground state and in the n=1 Fock state. In the linear quadrupole rf-trap with 700 kHz trap frequency along the symmetry axis (2 MHz in radial direction) the minimum ion spacing is more than 5 micron for up to 4 ions. We are able to cool two ions to the ground state in the trap and individually address the ions with laser pulses through a special optical addressing channel.

description: We investigated dam behaviours during high-flow events and their robustness against perturbations in meteorological conditions using the H08 global hydrological model. Differences in these behaviours were examined by comparing simulation runs, with and without dams and using multiple meteorological datasets, at a case-study site, Fort Peck Dam on the Missouri River, USA. The results demonstrated that dam-regulated river flow reduced temporal variability over large time periods and also dampened inter-forcing discrepancies in river discharge (smoothing effects). However, during wet years, differences in peak flow were accentuated downstream of the dam, resulting in divergence in simulated peak flow across the meteorological forcing (pulsing effect). The pulsing effect was detected at other major dams in global simulations. Depending upon the meteorological forcing, the dams act as a selective filter against high-flow events. Synergy between a generic dam scheme and differences in meteorological forcing data might introduce additional uncertainties in global hydrological simulations.

description: Self-gravitating accretion discs have only been studied in a few nearby objects using maser spots at the parsec-scale. We find a new spectral window for observing the self-gravitating accretion disc in super-Eddington accreting Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). This window is determined by calculating the outermost radius (rsg) of a non self-gravitating disc and the corresponding emission wavelength (lsg) as a function of various disc parameters. We find that lsg reaches ~ 4000 AA for alpha=0.1, when Mdot > 70 (M_BH / 10^7 M_Sun)^-1 L_Edd/c^2 (where alpha, Mdot, M_BH and L_Edd are, respectively, the viscosity parameter, gas accretion rate onto the central black hole (BH), the BH mass and the Eddington luminosity). Moreover, lsg is as small as 1500 AA for alpha = 0.001, which is the smallest alpha case in this study. Therefore, the window for observing the self-gravitating part of an AGN accretion disc is from 2 micron to lsg. Incidentally, rsg can be less than the photon trapping radius for Mdot >~ 10^3.3 L_Edd/c^2. Namely, a self-gravitating, optically-thick, advection-dominated accretion disc is expected to appear in the extremely high accretion rate regime. Next, we demonstrate that the Mid-Infrared to X-ray spectrum of a bright, well-studied Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy, Ton S 180, is indeed well fitted by the spectrum arising from the following three components: an inner slim disc (with a corona), an outer, self-gravitating non-Keplerian disc and a dusty torus. The total mass, BH mass plus the entire disc mass, is found to be about (1.4 - 8.0) M_BH. If the surface density varies with radius r in proportion to r^-0.6, the total mass is consistent with the central mass estimated by H_beta and [O III] widths.

description: Introduction: Age related macular degeneration (AMD) affects over 14 million people worldwide and is the commonest cause of visual loss in the over 65’s age group in the industrialised world. The neovascular form of AMD (nAMD) is responsible for the majority of severe visual loss. The introduction of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents in the mid 2000’s revolutionised the treatment of nAMD. Of the current three anti-VEGF agents widely used, Aflibercept (EYLEA®; Regeneron Pharmaceutical Inc., Tarrytown, NY, USA/Bayer Healthcare, Berlin, Germany) was the latest to be introduced. Areas covered: The different forms of AMD and previous treatments for nAMD are described. Current treatment regimens using anti-VEGFs are reviewed with particular emphasis on aflibercept, its specific properties and dosing strategies. Expert commentary: Clinical trials demonstrated that aflibercept achieved the same results using an 8 weekly dosing regimen, compared to a 4 weekly ranibizumab regimen. This reduction in injection frequency reduces hospital visits, thus benefiting patients and hospital eye services. Different treatment regimens including ‘as required’, and ‘treat and extend’ protocols have enabled further reductions in injection frequency, but with careful monitoring to avoid visual loss. Further developments are required to identify those who need fewer injections. The introduction of longer lasting, or topical agents, or strategies for primary prevention represent potential future developments.

description: The role of torsion and a scalar field $ϕ$ in gravitation, especially, in the presence of a Dirac field in the background of a particular class of the Riemann-Cartan geometry is considered here. Recently, a Lagrangian density with Lagrange multipliers has been proposed by the author which has been obtained by picking some particular terms from the SO(4,1) Pontryagin density, where the scalar field $ϕ$ causes the de Sitter connection to have the proper dimension of a gauge field. In this article the scalar field has been linked to the dimension of the Dirac field. Here we get the field equations for the Dirac field and the scalar field in such a way that both of them appear to be mutually non-interacting. In this scenario the scalar field appears to be a natural candidate for the dark matter and the dark radiation.

The adults identified here most likely represent the same species. A. elachistus is widespread in North America. Larvae are blood worms and live in eutrophic sediments in streams and shallow water bodies. When abundant, the swarming adults can become a nuisance.

description: Statistical pattern recognition methods have provided competitive solutions for variable star classification at a relatively low computational cost. In order to perform supervised classification, a set of features is proposed and used to train an automatic classification system. Quantities related to the magnitude density of the light curves and their Fourier coefficients have been chosen as features in previous studies. However, some of these features are not robust to the presence of outliers and the calculation of Fourier coefficients is computationally expensive for large data sets. We propose and evaluate the performance of a new robust set of features using supervised classifiers in order to look for new Be star candidates in the OGLE-IV Gaia south ecliptic pole field. We calculated the proposed set of features on six types of variable stars and on a set of Be star candidates reported in the literature. We evaluated the performance of these features using classification trees and random forests along with K-nearest neighbours, support vector machines, and gradient boosted trees methods. We tuned the classifiers with a 10-fold cross-validation and grid search. We validated the performance of the best classifier on a set of OGLE-IV light curves and applied this to find new Be star candidates. The random forest classifier outperformed the others. By using the random forest classifier and colour criteria we found 50 Be star candidates in the direction of the Gaia south ecliptic pole field, four of which have infrared colours consistent with Herbig Ae/Be stars. Supervised methods are very useful in order to obtain preliminary samples of variable stars extracted from large databases. As usual, the stars classified as Be stars candidates must be checked for the colours and spectroscopic characteristics expected for them.

description: We study the spontaneous emission, the absorption and dispersion properties of a ${\bf Λ}$-type atom where one transition interacts near resonantly with a double-band photonic crystal. Assuming an isotropic dispersion relation near the band edges, we show that two distinct coherent phenomena can occur. First, the spontaneous emission spectrum of the adjacent free space transition obtains `dark lines' (zeroes in the spectrum). Second, the atom can become transparent to a probe laser field coupling to the adjacent free space transition.

description: A multipole spin-down equation based on a monopolar term is derived from the general expression $\dotν = -f(ν,t)$ and used to study pulsar evolution. We show that the time-independent version of such equation cannot reproduce the observed properties of pulsars and conclude that there is no equation of the form $\dotν = -f(ν)$ consistent with the \pp diagram and braking index measurements. We explore the time-dependent model under the hypothesis of decaying magnetic fields, showing that an inverse linear decay gives reasonable evolutionary trajectories. This model distinguishes the evolution of Vela from that of the other three young pulsars considered. We discuss the origin of the monopolar term, which cannot be attributed to radiative processes, pointing to the importance of particle acceleration and/or mass loss processes in the dynamical evolution of pulsars.

description: In this paper we analyze the canonical forms into which any pure three-qubit state can be cast. The minimal forms, i.e. the ones with the minimal number of product states built from local bases, are also presented and lead to a complete classification of pure three-qubit states. This classification is related to the values of the polynomial invariants under local unitary transformations by a one-to-one correspondence.

description: We solve the effective Dirac equation for massless fermions during inflation in the simplest gauge, including all one loop corrections from quantum gravity. At late times the result for a spatial plane wave behaves as if the classical solution were subjected to a time dependent field strength renormalization of Z_2(t) = 1 - \frac{17}{4 π} G H^2 \ln(a) + O(G^2). We show that this also follows from making the Hartree approximation, although the numerical coefficients differ.

description: The non-commutativity of position and momentum observables is a hallmark feature of quantum physics. However this incompatibility does not extend to observables which are periodic in these base variables. Such modular-variable observables have been suggested as tools for fault-tolerant quantum computing and enhanced quantum sensing. Here we implement sequential measurements of modular variables in the oscillatory motion of a single trapped ion, using state-dependent displacements and a heralded non-destructive readout. We investigate the commutative nature of modular variable observables by demonstrating no-signaling-in-time between successive measurements, using a variety of input states. In the presence of quantum interference, which we enhance using squeezed input states, measurements of different periodicity show signaling-in-time. The sequential measurements allow us to extract two-time correlators for modular variables, which we use to violate a Leggett-Garg inequality. The experiments involve control and coherence of multi-component superpositions of up to 8 coherent, squeezed or Fock state wave-packets. Signaling-in-time as well as Leggett-Garg inequalities serve as efficient quantum witnesses which we probe here with a mechanical oscillator, a system which has a natural crossover from the quantum to the classical regime.

On the Steady Nature of Line-Driven Disk Winds

description: We perform an analytic investigation of the stability of line-driven disk winds, independent of hydrodynamic simulations. Our motive is to determine whether or not line-driven disk winds can account for the wide/broad UV resonance absorption lines seen in cataclysmic variables (CVs) and quasi-stellar objects (QSOs). In both CVs and QSOs observations generally indicate that the absorption arising in the outflowing winds has a steady velocity structure on time scales exceeding years (for CVs) and decades (for QSOs). However, published results from hydrodynamic simulations of line-driven disk winds are mixed, with some researchers claiming that the models are inherently unsteady, while other models produce steady winds. The analytic investigation presented here shows that if the accretion disk is steady, then the line-driven disk wind emanating from it can also be steady. In particular, we show that a gravitational force initially increasing along the wind streamline, which is characteristic of disk winds, does not imply an unsteady wind. The steady nature of line-driven disk winds is consistent with the 1D streamline disk-wind models of Murray and collaborators and the 2.5D time-dependent models of Pereyra and collaborators. This paper emphasizes the underlying physics behind the steady nature of line-driven disk winds using mathematically simple models that mimic the disk environment

description: Due to ample sunshine, particularly in the eastern and southern parts of the state, North Carolina is very viable for solar energy production. The pro-solar policies of North Carolina, specifically the state’s Renewable Energy Portfolio Standards (REPS), encourage the development of a solar market. In addition, net metering allows the owners of solar panels to sell excess energy back to the grid, which also aids the development of interest in solar. Federal and state credits also ensure on-going investment, and on-going development of solar investment, particularly solar farms, across the state. Lastly, energy companies, such as Duke Energy, facilitate the integration of projects to ensure seamless integration of renewable energy, helping to establish North Carolina as a premier solar state in the United States.

description: Reaction between the tridentate NNN donor ligand, (E)-2-(2-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazinyl)benzo[d]thiazole (HL), and V2O5 in ethanol gave a new vanadium(V) complex, [VO2L] (1), while the similar reaction by using [VIVO(acac)2] as the metal source gave two different types of crystals related to compounds [VO2L] (1) and [VIVO(acac)L] (2). The molecular structures of the complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic characterization was carried out by means of FT-IR, UV–vis and NMR experiments as well as elemental analysis. The oxidovanadium(IV) and dioxidovanadium(V) species were used as catalyst precursors for olefin oxidation in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant. Under similar experimental conditions, the presence of 1 resulted in higher oxidation conversion than 2.

Modeling incompressible thermal flows using a central-moment-based lattice Boltzmann method

description: In this paper, a central-moment-based lattice Boltzmann (CLB) method for incompressible thermal flows is proposed. In the method, the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and the convection-diffusion equation for the temperature field are sloved separately by two different CLB equations. Through the Chapman-Enskog analysis, the macroscopic governing equations for incompressible thermal flows can be reproduced. For the flow field, the tedious implementation for CLB method is simplified by using the shift matrix with a simplified central-moment set, and the consistent forcing scheme is adopted to incorporate forcing effects. Compared with several D2Q5 multiple-relaxation-time (MRT) lattice Boltzmann methods for the temperature equation, the proposed method is shown to be better Galilean invariant through measuring the thermal diffusivities on a moving reference frame. Thus a higher Mach number can be used for convection flows, which decreases the computational load significantly. Numerical simulations for several typical problems confirm the accuracy, efficiency, and stability of the present method. The grid convergence tests indicate that the proposed CLB method for incompressible thermal flows is of second-order accuracy in space.
Fundamental solution method applied to time evolution of two energy level systems: exact and adiabatic limit results

description: A method of fundamental solutions has been used to investigate transitions in two energy level systems with no level crossing in a real time. Compact formulas for transition probabilities have been found in their exact form as well as in their adiabatic limit. No interference effects resulting from many level complex crossings as announced by Joye, Mileti and Pfister (Phys. Rev. {\bf A44} 4280 (1991)) have been detected in either case. It is argued that these results of this work are incorrect. However, some effects of Berry's phases are confirmed.

description: We report on the structure and evolution of a current sheet that formed in the wake of an eruptive X8.3 flare observed at the west limb of the Sun on September 10, 2017. Using observations from the EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on Hinode and the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), we find that plasma in the current sheet reaches temperatures of about 20 MK and that the range of temperatures is relatively narrow. The highest temperatures occur at the base of the current sheet, in the region near the top of the post-flare loop arcade. The broadest high temperature line profiles, in contrast, occur at the largest observed heights. Further, line broadening is strong very early in the flare and diminishes over time. The current sheet can be observed in the AIA 211 and 171 channels, which have a considerable contribution from thermal bremsstrahlung at flare temperatures. Comparisons of the emission measure in these channels with other EIS wavelengths and AIA channels dominated by Fe line emission indicate a coronal composition and suggest that the current sheet is formed by the heating of plasma already in the corona. Taken together, these observations suggest that some flare heating occurs in the current sheet while additional energy is released as newly reconnected field lines relax and become more dipolar.
