description: We determine the asymptotics of the joint eigenfunctions of the torus action on a toric Kahler variety. Such varieties are models of completely integrable systems in complex geometry. We first determine the pointwise asymptotics of the eigenfunctions, which show that they behave like Gaussians centered at the corresponding classical torus. We then show that there is a universal Gaussian scaling limit of the distribution function near its center. We also determine the limit distribution for the tails of the eigenfunctions on large length scales. These are not universal but depend on the global geometry of the toric variety and in particular on the details of the exponential decay of the eigenfunctions away from the classically allowed set.

description: The differential equation in the external invariant p^2 satisfied by the master integral of the general massive 2-loop 4-denominator self-mass diagram is exploited and the expansion of the master integral at p^2=0 is obtained analytically. The system composed by this differential equation with those of the master integrals related to the general massive 2-loop sunrise diagram is numerically solved by the Runge-Kutta method in the complex p^2 plane. A numerical method to obtain results for values of p^2 at and close to thresholds and pseudo-thresholds is discussed in details.

Picturing destruction at home and abroad: A comparative visual analysis of icons and news values during disaster

description: This study uses news photographs and interviews with journalists to explore how Australia’s unprecedented 2019-20 bushfire season was depicted for Australian and non-Australian audiences in order to extend transnational understanding of iconicity’s tenets and how news values vary across contexts. It does so first by examining the Sydney Morning Herald’s coverage over three months and then by contrasting this with international coverage that began in early 2020 once the issue spilled onto the world stage. Australia's coverage focused intensely on human actors involved in the disaster while the vast numbers of affected animals were virtually absent. In contrast, international media visually depicted the disaster as an environmental and ecological issue with global consequences. The results suggest a need for a definition of iconicity that is inclusive to non-human actors and to inanimate forces that are personified. It also extends our cross-cultural understanding of the visual expression of news values.

description: We analyze an extremely deep 450-$μ$m image ($1σ=0.56$\,mJy\,beam$^{-1}$) of a $\simeq 300$\,arcmin$^{2}$ area in the CANDELS/COSMOS field as part of the SCUBA-2 Ultra Deep Imaging EAO Survey (STUDIES). We select a robust (signal-to-noise ratio $\geqslant 4$) and flux-limited ($\geqslant 4$\,mJy) sample of 164 sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) at 450-$μ$m that have $K$-band counterparts in the COSMOS2015 catalog identified from radio or mid-infrared imaging. Utilizing this SMG sample and the 4705 $K$-band-selected non-SMGs that reside within the noise level $\leqslant 1$\,mJy\,beam$^{-1}$ region of the 450-$μ$m image as a training set, we develop a machine-learning classifier using $K$-band magnitude and color-color pairs based on the thirteen-band photometry available in this field. We apply the trained machine-learning classifier to the wider COSMOS field (1.6\,deg$^{2}$) using the same COSMOS2015 catalog and identify a sample of 6182 450-$μ$m SMG candidates with similar colors. The number density, radio and/or mid-infrared detection rates, redshift and stellar mass distributions, and the stacked 450-$μ$m fluxes of these SMG candidates, from the S2COSMOS observations of the wide field, agree with the measurements made in the much smaller CANDELS field, supporting the effectiveness of the classifier. Using this 450-$μ$m SMG candidate sample, we measure the two-point autocorrelation functions from $z=3$ down to $z=0.5$. We find that the 450-$μ$m SMG candidates reside in halos with masses of $\simeq (2.0\pm0.5) \times10^{13}\,h^{-1}\,\rm M_{\odot}$ across this redshift range. We do not find evidence of downsizing that has been suggested by other recent observational studies.

Mearsurement of $α_s$ and the $β$ function with the DELPHI detector at LEP

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Event shape distributions in $e^+e^-$ annihilation are determined from the DELPHI data taken between 183 and 207\gev. From these the strong coupling $α_s$ is extracted with several techniques. Together with the results from other LEP2 energies and at about $m_Z$ this allows both, a combined measurement of $α_s$ and a test of the scale dependence of the strong interaction. Alternatively the renormalisation group invariant (RGI) perturbation theory is applied to measure the $β$ function of strong interaction. The results are good agreement with the QCD expectation and allow to exclude the existence of light gluinos with a mass below 30\gev in a model independent way.

description: We study the free expansion of a pancake-shaped Bose-condensed gas, which is initially trapped under harmonic confinement and containing a vortex at its centre. In the case of a radial expansion holding fixed the axial confinement we consider various models for the interactions, depending on the thickness of the condensate relative to the value of the scattering length. We are thus able to evaluate different scattering regimes ranging from quasi-three-dimensional (Q3D) to strictly two-dimensional (2D). We find that as the system goes from Q3D to 2D the expansion rate of the condensate increases whereas that of the vortex core decreases. In the Q3D scattering regime we also examine a fully free expansion in 3D and find oscillatory behaviour for the vortex core radius: an initial fast expansion of the vortex core is followed by a slowing down. Such a nonuniform expansion rate of the vortex core may be taken into account in designing new experiments.

Abundance and group coalescence timescales of compact groups of galaxies in the EAGLE simulation

description: Observations of compact groups of galaxies (CGs) indicate that their abundance has not significantly changed since $z=0.2$. This balance between the timescales for formation and destruction of CGs is challenging if the typical timescale for CG members to merge into one massive galaxy is as short as historically assumed ($0.4$ merge into one massive galaxy before the simulation end ($z=0$) and we find that the typical timescale for this process is 2-3 Gyr. We conclude that the combination of large fractions of interlopers and the longer median group coalescence timescale of CGs alleviates the need for a fast formation process to explain the observed abundance of CGs for $z<0.2$.

description: Noise and imperfection of realistic devices are major obstacles for implementing quantum cryptography. In particular birefringence in optical fibers leads to decoherence of qubits encoded in polarization of photon. We show how to overcome this problem by doing single qubit quantum communication without a shared spatial reference frame and precise timing. Quantum information will be encoded in pair of photons using ``tag'' operations which corresponds to the time delay of one of the polarization modes. This method is robust against the phase instability of the interferometers despite the use of time-bins. Moreover synchronized clocks are not required in the ideal situation no photon loss case as they are only necessary to label the different encoded qubits.

description: The magnetic excitation spectrum of copper pyrimidine dinitrate, a material containing S=1/2 antiferromagnetic chains with alternating g-tensor and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, and exhibiting a field-induced spin gap, is probed using submillimeter wave electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Ten excitation modes are resolved in the low-temperature spectrum, and their frequency-field diagram is systematically studied in magnetic fields up to 25 T. The experimental data are sufficiently detailed to make a very accurate comparison with predictions based on the quantum sine-Gordon field theory. Signatures of three breather branches and a soliton, as well as those of several multi-particle excitation modes are identified.

Electromagnetic characteristics of bilayer quantum Hall systems in the presence of interlayer coherence and tunneling
Creators: name: Shizuya, K.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The electromagnetic characteristics of bilayer quantum Hall systems in the presence of interlayer coherence and tunneling are studied by means of a pseudospin-texture effective theory and an algebraic framework of the single-mode approximation, with emphasis on clarifying the nature of the low-lying neutral collective mode responsible for interlayer tunneling phenomena. A long-wavelength effective theory, consisting of the collective mode as well as the cyclotron modes, is constructed. It is seen explicitly from the electromagnetic response that gauge invariance is kept exact, this implying, in particular, the absence of the Meissner effect in bilayer systems. Special emphasis is placed on exploring the advantage of looking into quantum Hall systems through their response; in particular, subtleties inherent to the standard Chern-Simons theories are critically examined.

description: Open classical and quantum systems with effective parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetry, over the past five years, have shown tremendous promise for advances in lasers, sensing, and non-reciprocal devices. And yet, how such effective $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric non-Hermitian models emerge out of Hermitian quantum mechanics is not well understood. Here, starting from a fully Hermitian microscopic Hamiltonian description, we show that a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian emerges naturally in a double-quantum-dot-circuit-QED (DQD-circuit QED) set-up, which can be controllably tuned to the $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric point. This effective Hamiltonian governs the dynamics of two coupled circuit-QED cavities with a voltage-biased DQD in one of them. Our analysis also reveals the effect of quantum fluctuations on the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetric system. The $\mathcal{PT}$-transition is, then, observed both in the dynamics of cavity observables as well as via an input-output experiment. As a simple application of the $\mathcal{PT}$-transition in this set-up, we show that loss-induced enhancement of amplification and lasing can be observed in the coupled cavities. By comparing our results with two conventional local Lindblad equations, we demonstrate the utility and limitations of the latter. Our results pave the way for an on-chip realization of a potentially scalable non-Hermitian system with a gain medium in quantum regime, as well as its potential applications for quantum technology.

description: We reexamine here a problem considered in detail before by Waugh and Lake: the solutions of spherically symmetric Einstein's equations with a radial flow of unpolarized radiation (the Vaidya metric) in double-null coordinates. This problem is known to be not analytically solvable, the only known explicit solutions correspond to the constant mass case (Schwarzschild solution in Kruskal-Szekeres form) and the linear and exponential mass functions originally discovered by Waugh and Lake. We present here a semi-analytical approach that can be used to discuss some qualitative and quantitative aspects of the Vaidya metric in double-null coordinates for generic mass functions. We present also a new analytical solution corresponding to $(1/v)$-mass function.

description: In this paper, we propose a variant of stable model semantics for disjunctive logic programming and deductive databases. The semantics, called minimal founded, generalizes stable model semantics for normal (i.e. non disjunctive) programs but differs from disjunctive stable model semantics (the extension of stable model semantics for disjunctive programs). Compared with disjunctive stable model semantics, minimal founded semantics seems to be more intuitive, it gives meaning to programs which are meaningless under stable model semantics and is no harder to compute. More specifically, minimal founded semantics differs from stable model semantics only for disjunctive programs having constraint rules or rules working as constraints. We study the expressive power of the semantics and show that for general disjunctive datalog programs it has the same power as disjunctive stable model semantics.

description: This paper quantiﬁes the levels of assistance received by producers of the major agricultural crops and animal products in Australia from Federation to the end of World War II. We outline the history of government assistance to the sector after Federation. Six measures of assistance are examined. Then the nominal rates of assistance from these measures are calculated for 20 agricultural products, 14 of which are classiﬁed as exportables and 6 as importables. From these product measures of assistance, we construct a series of the production-weighted average nominal rate of assistance for the group of exportable products and for the group of importable products and for the whole sector. Our results show that, from the time of Federation, the pattern of assistance to the sector discriminated persistently and heavily against the exportable agricultural products.

description: We report a detailed ab-initio study of the of the microscopic degradation mechanism of FIrpic, a popular blue emitter in OLED devices. We simulate the \emph{operando} conditions of FIrpic by adding an electron-hole pair (exciton) to the system. We perform both static calculations with the TDDFT framework and we also simulate the evolution of the system at finite temperature via Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics. We found triplet excitons are very effective in reducing the Ir-N bond breaking barrier of the picolinate moiety. After the first bond breaking, the two oxygen of picolinate swap their position and FIrpic can either remain stable in an "open" configuration, or loose a picolinate fragment, which at a later stage can evolve a CO$_2$ molecule. Our method can be applied to other light emitting Ir-complexes in order to quickly estimate their stability in OLED devices. In Paper~II we complement our theoretical study with a parallel experimental investigation of the key degradation steps of FIrpic in an aged device.

description: This paper computes and decomposes F€are-Primont indexes of total factor productivity of Australian broadacre agriculture by estimating distance functions. Using state-level data from 1990 to 2011, the empirical results show that TFP grew at an average rate of 1.36 per cent per annum in the broadacre agriculture over the period 1990–2011. There are variations of total factor productivity (TFP) growth across states and ﬂuctuations over time within each state and territory. However, overall, there is a clear movement towards slower TFP growth across the sample period. Further decomposition of TFP growth shows that it is declining growth in technical possibilities (technological progress) that is the main driver of the declining trend in productivity growth in broadacre agriculture in Australia.

description: No-take marine reserves have been increasingly advocated as an eﬀective means of supporting marine ecosystems and conserving ﬁsheries resources. A major problem that can hinder the eﬀectiveness of no-take reserves is the incidence of illegal ﬁshing, which has created signiﬁcant ecological and economic losses in global ﬁsheries. We construct a bioeconomic model to explore the connection between the eﬀects of notake reserves and illegal ﬁshing activities in relation to the level of regulatory control of illegal activities in the reserve and ﬁshed areas. Our parameterised model shows that the eﬀects of no-take reserves on both the extent of illegal ﬁshing and the ﬁsh biomass critically depend on illegal ﬁshing regulations and the scale and patterns of ﬁsh dispersal. In a ﬁshery where illegal ﬁshing can only be partially controlled, increasing the size of the no-take reserve may result in a lose-lose situation in which the level of illegal ﬁshing eﬀort increases and the total biomass decreases. Our results further show that when the pattern of ﬁsh dispersal is density dependent, imposing a stricter control on illegal ﬁshing in either reserves or ﬁshed areas increases the aggregate level of illegal ﬁshing.

description: We propose that an options-based approach is a superior alternative to the traditional cost-of-carry method to model both the behaviour of convenience yields and the commodity price responses to changes in inventory levels. This approach is shown to be more robust and avoids the simplifying assumptions embedded in cost-of-carry valuation which fully accounts for the non-negativity constraint on inventory. Unlike the cost-of-carry approach, the options-based approach does not treat the convenience yield as an exogenous factor. This oﬀers a more natural measure of implied convenience yields in commodity trading strategies. We test the relationship between convenience yields and inventory levels for a number of liquidly traded base metals using both methods. Our results show that the relationship between convenience yields and inventory levels is strongly deﬁned under the options-based approach in line with market beliefs. This result is consistent with other studies that have used the optionsbased approach in other nonmetals commodity markets.

description: The paper presents estimates of price elasticities of demand for 12 disaggregated alcoholic beverages in Australia: premium beer, full strength beer, low alcohol beer and mid-strength beer; red bottled wine, white bottled wine, sparkling wine, cask wine; dark and light ready-to-drink (RTD); and dark and light spirits. These disaggregated categories correspond closely to the commodities of interest to public policymakers with respect to taxation and health policies. The system of demand equations is estimated with Nielsen’s data using a semiﬂexible Almost Ideal Demand System model in order to impose negative semi-deﬁniteness on the demand parameters. Results indicate elastic own-price elasticities for virtually all commodities. Cross-price elasticities suggest that beverages most linked with negative externalities, namely full strength beer, dark RTD and dark spirits, may need to be taxed jointly. Any proposed tax increase to cask wine may also result in consumers shifting demand to more undesirable beverages. The elasticity estimates are used to illustrate the eﬀect of a hypothetical change towards taxation equalisation based on alcohol content. These elasticities oﬀer crucially needed inputs for analysing any tax change policies.

description: Several authors have argued that forest ecosystems serve as a hedge against extreme climatic events at a local scale. Consequently, the local climate regulation ecosystem services provided by forests can be economically valued by evaluating the reduction (increase) in the insurance premium that risk-averse individuals are willing to pay when forest cover is marginally increased (reduced). This type of insurance value associated to forest ecosystems services is estimated to be USD 0.0733 per hectare of forest for Chilean farmers. The empirical framework proposed in this paper is useful and relevant for the cost-beneﬁt analysis of natural resource conservation investments
Vortex Strings and Four-Dimensional Gauge Dynamics

description: We study the low-energy quantum dynamics of vortex strings in the Higgs phase of N=2 supersymmetric QCD. The exact BPS spectrum of the stretched string is shown to coincide with the BPS spectrum of the four-dimensional parent gauge theory. Perturbative string excitations correspond to bound W-bosons and quarks while the monopoles appear as kinks on the vortex string. This provides a physical explanation for an observation by N. Dorey relating the quantum spectra of theories in two and four dimensions.

description: In recent years, Asia has emerged as an important supplier of food to Western countries. In this study, we focus on shrimp, a major aquaculture commodity, to evaluate consumer willingness-to-pay (WTP) for enhanced food safety, use of antibiotics and eco-friendly practices used in producing shrimp in the presence of country-of-origin labelling. Speciﬁcally, this research assesses the eﬀects of news headlines regarding product safety, as information shocks on U.S. consumer demand. Consumers were found to have a mean willingness-to-pay of $7.81 per pound of shrimp with an enhanced safety characteristic from the United States, $0.94 for the same type of shrimp from China and $2.43 for similar shrimp from Thailand. Consumers had a WTP for the absence of antibiotics in the production of U.S. shrimp of $7.31 and were only willing to pay for an eco-friendly attribute on domestically produced shrimp. Media headlines were found to have a statistically signiﬁcant eﬀect on consumer preferences and WTP for product characteristics. Food policy and international agribusiness implications of our ﬁndings are discussed.

description: It is well established that particle acceleration by shocks and turbulence in the intra-cluster medium can produce cluster-scale synchrotron emitting sources. However, the detailed physics of these particle acceleration processes is still not well understood. One of the main open questions is the role of fossil relativistic electrons that have been deposited in the intra-cluster medium by radio galaxies. These synchrotron-emitting electrons are very difficult to study, as their radiative life time is only tens of Myrs at GHz frequencies, and are therefore a relatively unexplored population. Despite the typical steep radio spectrum due to synchrotron losses, these fossil electrons are barely visible even at radio frequencies well below a GHz. However, when a pocket of fossil radio plasma is compressed, it boosts the visibility at sub-GHz frequencies, creating so-called radio phoenices. This compression can be the result of bulk motion and shocks in the ICM due to merger activity. In this paper, we demonstrate the discovery potential of low frequency radio sky surveys to find and study revived fossil plasma sources in galaxy clusters. We used the 150~MHz TGSS and 1.4 GHz NVSS sky surveys to identify candidate radio phoenices. A subset of three candidates were studied in detail using deep multi-band radio observations (LOFAR and GMRT), X-ray (\textit{Chandra} or \textit{XMM-Newton}) and archival optical observations. Two of the three sources are new discoveries. Using these observations, we identified common observational properties (radio morphology, ultra-steep spectrum, X-ray luminosity, dynamical state) that will enable us to identify this class of sources more easily, and help to understand the physical origin of these sources.

Ξεκινήσαμε μελετώντας την γιόγκα από τις πρώτες αναφορές στη πρακτική της. Έπειτα προχωρήσαμε στην αναδρομή της μέσα από τις γραφές, μέχρι τη συστηματοποίησή της από τον Patanjali. Ακόμα βλέπουμε την φιλοσοφία της πρακτικής άσκησης της γιόγκα που βρίσκεται στο φιλοσοφικό σύστημα της samkya. Αναλύουμε το πρακτικό κομμάτι της άσκησης με τα είδη γιόγκα, τα μέλη και τα υποστηρίγματά της, όσον αφορά την άσκηση. Παρακολουθήσαμε την εξέλιξή της κατά την επαφή της με τον δυτικό κόσμο και πώς αλληλοεπηρεάστηκαν. Τέλος, παρατηρούμε την γιόγκα στο σήμερα το πόσο έχει επηρεάσει τη ζωή μας και τις διαστάσεις που έχει πάρει αυτό το φαινόμενο στον δυτικό κόσμο, καθώς και τους λόγους που την κατέστησαν τόσο δημοφιλή στο κοινό.
description: The aim of the present thesis was to present the system of yoga as it preexisted and its development in time and its transfer to the western world. We started by studying yoga from the first references to its practice. Then we proceeded to its retrospection through the scriptures, until it’s systematized by Patanjali. Moreover we see the philosophy of yoga practice which is found in the philosophical system of samkya. We analyze the practical part of the practice with the types of yoga, the stages and the supports of yoga, in terms of exercise. We watched its evolution during its contact with the western world and how they interacted. Lastly, we observe how much today’s yoga has affected our lives and the dimensions that this phenomenon has taken in the western world, as well as the reasons that made it so popular with the public.

description: The Quantum Hall Effects in all even dimensions are uniformly constructed. Contrary to some recent accounts in the literature, the existence of Quantum Hall Effects does not {\it crucially} depend on the existence of division algebras. For QHE on flat space of even dimensions, both the Hamiltonians and the ground state wave-functions for a single particle are explicitly described. This explicit description immediately tells us that QHE on a higher even dimensional flat space shares the common features such as incompressibility with QHE on plane.

description: The recent experimental observation of dissipation-induced structural instability provides new opportunities for exploring the competition mechanism between stationary and nonstationary dynamics [Science 366, 1496 (2019)]. In that study, two orthogonal quadratures of cavity field are coupled to two different Zeeman states of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). Here we propose a novel scheme to couple two density-wave degrees of freedom of a BEC to two quadratures of the cavity field. Being drastically different from previous studies, the light-matter quadratures coupling in our model is endowed with a tunable coupling angle. Apart from the uniform and self-organized phases, we unravel a dynamically unstable state induced by the cavity dissipation. Interestingly, the dissipation defines a particular coupling angle, across which the instabilities disappear. Moreover, at this critical coupling angle, one of the two atomic density waves can be independently excited without affecting one another. It is also found that our system can be mapped into a reduced three-level model under the commonly used low-excitation-mode approximation. However, the effectiveness of this approximation is shown to be broken by the dissipation nature for some special system parameters, hinting that the low-excitation-mode approximation is insufficient in capturing some dissipation-sensitive physics. Our work enriches the quantum simulation toolbox in the cavity-quantum-electrodynamics system and broadens the frontiers of light-matter interaction.
