description: The impact of superconducting correlations on localized electronic states is important for a wide range of experiments in fundamental and applied superconductivity (SC). This includes scanning tunneling microscopy of atomic impurities at the surface of superconductors, as well as superconducting-ion-chip spectroscopy of neutral ions and Rydberg states. Moreover, atom-like centers close to the surface are currently believed to be the main source of noise and decoherence in qubits based on superconducting devices. The proximity effect is known to dress atomic orbitals in Cooper-pair-like states known as Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states (YSR), but the impact of SC on the measured orbital splittings and optical/noise transitions is not known. Here we study the interplay between orbital degenerescence and particle number admixture in atomic states, beyond the usual classical spin approximation. We model the atom as a generalized Anderson model interacting with a conventional $s$-wave superconductor. In the limit of zero on-site Coulomb repulsion ($U=0$), we obtain YSR subgap energy levels that are identical to the ones obtained from the classical spin model. When $Δ$ is large and $U>0$, the YSR spectra is no longer quasiparticle-like, and the highly degenerate orbital subspaces are split according to their spin, orbital, and number-parity symmetry. We show that $U>0$ activates additional poles in the atomic Green's function, suggesting an alternative explanation for the peak splittings recently observed in scanning tunneling microscopy of orbitally-degenerate impurities in superconductors. We describe optical excitation and absorption of photons by YSR states, showing that many additional optical channels open up in comparison to the non-superconducting case. Conversely, the additional dissipation channels imply increased electromagnetic noise due to impurities in superconducting devices.

description: The properties of the population of merging binary black holes encode some of the uncertain physics of the evolution of massive stars in binaries. The binary black hole merger rate and chirp mass distribution are being measured by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. We consider isolated binary evolution and explore how accurately the physical model can be constrained with such observations by applying the Fisher information matrix to the merging black hole population simulated with the rapid binary population synthesis code COMPAS. We investigate variations in four COMPAS parameters: common envelope efficiency, kick velocity dispersion, and mass loss rates during the luminous blue variable and Wolf--Rayet stellar evolutionary phases. We find that 1000 observations would constrain these model parameters to a fractional accuracy of a few percent. Given the empirically determined binary black hole merger rate, we can expect gravitational-wave observations alone to place strong constraints on the physics of stellar and binary evolution within a few years.

description: T helper 17 (Th17) cells are pathogenic in many inflammatory diseases, but also support the integrity of the intestinal barrier in a non-inflammatory manner. It is unclear what distinguishes inflammatory Th17 cells elicited by pathogens and tissue-resident homeostatic Th17 cells elicited by commensals. Here, we compared the characteristics of Th17 cells differentiating in response to commensal bacteria (SFB) to those differentiating in response to a pathogen (Citrobacter rodentium). Homeostatic Th17 cells exhibited little plasticity towards expression of inflammatory cytokines, were characterized by a metabolism typical of quiescent or memory T cells, and did not participate in inflammatory processes. In contrast, infection-induced Th17 cells showed extensive plasticity towards pro-inflammatory cytokines, disseminated widely into the periphery, and engaged aerobic glycolysis in addition to oxidative phosphorylation typical for inflammatory effector cells. These findings will help ensure that future therapies directed against inflammatory Th17 cells do not inadvertently damage the resident gut population.

description: The gravitino is a promising candidate for cold dark matter. We study cosmological constraints on scenarios in which the gravitino is the lightest supersymmetric particle and a charged slepton the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP). We obtain new results for the hadronic nucleosynthesis bounds by computing the 4-body decay of the NLSP slepton into the gravitino, the associated lepton, and a quark-antiquark pair. The bounds from the observed dark matter density are refined by taking into account gravitinos from both late NLSP decays and thermal scattering in the early Universe. We examine the present free-streaming velocity of gravitino dark matter and the limits from observations and simulations of cosmic structures. Assuming that the NLSP sleptons freeze out with a thermal abundance before their decay, we derive new bounds on the slepton and gravitino masses. The implications of the constraints for cosmology and collider phenomenology are discussed and the potential insights from future experiments are outlined. We propose a set of benchmark scenarios with gravitino dark matter and long-lived charged NLSP sleptons and describe prospects for the Large Hadron Collider and the International Linear Collider.

description: We present the first results from the "Low Energy Detector" payload of the "Solar X-ray Spectrometer (SOXS)" mission, which was launched onboard the GSAT-2 Indian spacecraft on 08 May 2003 by the GSLV-D2 rocket to study solar flares. The SOXS Low Energy Detector (SLD) payload was designed, developed, and fabricated by the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) in collaboration with the Space Application Centre (SAC), Ahmedabad and the ISRO Satellite Centre (ISAC), Bangalore of Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). The energy ranges of the Si PIN and CZT detectors are 4 - 25 keV and 4 - 56 keV respectively. The Si PIN provides sub-keV energy resolution while the CZT reveals ~1.7 keV energy resolution throughout the energy range. The high sensitivity and sub-keV energy resolution of the Si PIN detector allows measuring the intensity, peak energy, and the equivalent width of the Fe-line complex at approximately 6.7 keV as a function of time in all ten M-class flares studied in this investigation. The peak energy (Ep) of the Fe-line feature varies between 6.4 and 6.7 keV with increasing in temperature from 9 to 58 MK. We found that the equivalent width (w) of the Fe-line feature increases exponentially with temperature up to 30 MK and then increases very slowly up to 40 Mk. It remains between 3.5 and 4 keV in the temperature range of 30 - 45 MK. We compare our measurements of w with calculations made earlier by various investigators and propose that these measurements may improve theoretical models. We interpret the variation of both Ep and w with temperature as due to the changes in the ionization and recombination conditions in the plasma during the flare interval and as a consequence the contribution from different ionic emission lines also varies.

description: It is well established that neural networks with deep architectures perform better than shallow networks for many tasks in machine learning. In statistical physics, while there has been recent interest in representing physical data with generative modelling, the focus has been on shallow neural networks. A natural question to ask is whether deep neural networks hold any advantage over shallow networks in representing such data. We investigate this question by using unsupervised, generative graphical models to learn the probability distribution of a two-dimensional Ising system. Deep Boltzmann machines, deep belief networks, and deep restricted Boltzmann networks are trained on thermal spin configurations from this system, and compared to the shallow architecture of the restricted Boltzmann machine. We benchmark the models, focussing on the accuracy of generating energetic observables near the phase transition, where these quantities are most difficult to approximate. Interestingly, after training the generative networks, we observe that the accuracy essentially depends only on the number of neurons in the first hidden layer of the network, and not on other model details such as network depth or model type. This is evidence that shallow networks are more efficient than deep networks at representing physical probability distributions associated with Ising systems near criticality.

description: One of the earliest and most significant events in embryonic development is zygotic genome activation (ZGA). In several species, bulk transcription begins at the midblastula transition (MBT) when, after a certain number of cleavages, the embryo attains a particular nuclear-to-cytoplasmic (N/C) ratio, maternal repressors become sufficiently diluted, and the cell cycle slows down. Here we resolve the frog ZGA in time and space by profiling RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) engagement and its transcriptional readout. We detect a gradual increase in both the quantity and the length of RNAPII elongation before the MBT, revealing that >1,000 zygotic genes disregard the N/C timer for their activation and that the sizes of newly transcribed genes are not necessarily constrained by cell cycle duration. We also find that Wnt, Nodal, and BMP signaling together generate most of the spatiotemporal dynamics of regional ZGA, directing the formation of orthogonal body axes and proportionate germ layers.

description: We investigate the variation of current star formation in galaxies as a function of distance along three supercluster filaments, each joining pairs of rich clusters, in the Pisces-Cetus supercluster, which is part of the 2dFGRS. We find that even though there is a steady decline in the rate of star formation, as well as in the fraction of star forming galaxies, as one approaches the core of a cluster at an extremity of such a filament, there is an increased activity of star formation in a narrow distance range between 3-4/h_70 Mpc, which is 1.5-2 times the virial radius of the clusters involved. This peak in star formation is seen to be entirely due to the dwarf galaxies (-20

description: We use microwave radiation generated by a semiconductor double quantum dot (DQD) micromaser for charge state detection. A cavity is populated with n_c ~ 6000 photons by driving a current through an emitter DQD. These photons are used to sense the charge state of a target DQD that is located at the opposite end of the cavity. Charge dynamics in the target DQD influence the output power and emission frequency of the maser. Three different readout mechanisms are compared. The detection scheme requires no cavity input field and may potentially be used to improve the scalability of semiconductor and superconducting qubit readout technologies.

description: HW Vir systems are rare evolved eclipsing binaries composed by a hot compact star and a low-mass main-sequence star in a close orbit. These systems provide a direct way to measure the fundamental properties, e.g. masses and radii, of their components, hence they are crucial to study the formation of sdB stars and low-mass white dwarfs, the common-envelope phase, and the pre-phase of cataclysmic variables. Here we present a detailed study of HS 2231+2441, an HW Vir type system, by analysing BVR$_C$I$_C$ photometry and phase-resolved optical spectroscopy. The spectra of this system, which are dominated by the primary component features, were fitted using NLTE models providing effective temperature Teff = 28500$\pm$500 K, surface gravity log g = 5.40$\pm$0.05 cm s$^{-2}$, and helium abundance log(n(He)/n(H)) = -2.52$\pm$0.07. Geometrical orbit and physical parameters were derived by modelling simultaneously the photometric and spectroscopic data using the Wilson-Devinney code. We derive two possible solutions for HS 2231+2441 that provide component's masses: M$_1$ = 0.19 M$_{\odot}$ and M$_2$ = 0.036 M$_{\odot}$ or M$_1$ = 0.288 M$_{\odot}$ and M$_2$ = 0.046 M$_{\odot}$. Considering the possible evolutionary channels to form a compact hot star, the primary of HS 2231+2441 probably evolved through the red-giant branch scenario and does not have a helium-burning core, which is consistent with a low-mass white dwarf. Both solutions are consistent with a brown dwarf as the secondary.

description: John Walter Bramsgrove joined the Tower Hamlets Rifle Brigade at age 21. He was captured in North Africa in May 1941, after being lost in the desert and staying with a very hospitable Bedouin family. He was held in Italian PoW camps in 1943. He escaped but was recaptured and taken to PoW camps in Germany and Poland. His war diary records his repatriation. The diary was filled with "grief, grief, grief": he had dysentery, he scraped a living, and he won a raffle of Red Cross parcels which he shared with a Russian woman. He also had a magazine produced for the ship that took them to North Africa.He was chairman of the Essex PoW group and sent money to the Red Cross. He became a postman and secretary of the Barking British Legion and served as a standard bearer on parades.He married Annie Evelyn Humphrey in 1939.Annie worked as a welder in the Ford's factory, Dagenham. She also worked as an ARP (Air Raid Precautions warden). Her aunt was in the WAAF (Women's Auxiliary Air Force) and married an American airman; she wrote from a GI holding camp and went to the US on the Queen Mary boat.

description: [ABRIGED] We present the optical identification of a sample of 695 X-ray sources detected in the first 1.3 deg^2 of the XMM-COSMOS survey, down to a 0.5-2 keV (2-10 keV) limiting flux of ~10^-15 erg cm-2 s-1 (~5x10^-15 erg cm^-2 s-1). We were able to associate a candidate optical counterpart to ~90% (626) of the X-ray sources, while for the remaining ~10% of the sources we were not able to provide a unique optical association due to the faintness of the possible optical counterparts (I_AB>25) or to the presence of multiple optical sources within the XMM-Newton error circles. We also cross-correlated the candidate optical counterparts with the Subaru multicolor and ACS catalogs and with the Magellan/IMACS, zCOSMOS and literature spectroscopic data; the spectroscopic sample comprises 248 objects (~40% of the full sample). Our analysis reveals that for ~80% of the counterparts there is a very good agreement between the spectroscopic classification, the morphological parameters as derived from ACS data, and the optical to near infrared colors. About 20% of the sources show an apparent mismatch between the morphological and spectroscopic classifications. All the ``extended'' BL AGN lie at redshift <1.5, while the redshift distribution of the full BL AGN population peaks at z~1.5. Our analysis also suggests that the Type 2/Type 1 ratio decreases towards high luminosities, in qualitative agreement with the results from X-ray spectral analysis and the most recent modeling of the X-ray luminosity function evolution.

description: We consider in this work a system of two stochastic differential equations named the perturbed compositional gradient flow. By introducing a separation of fast and slow scales of the two equations, we show that the limit of the slow motion is given by an averaged ordinary differential equation. We then demonstrate that the deviation of the slow motion from the averaged equation, after proper rescaling, converges to a stochastic process with Gaussian inputs. This indicates that the slow motion can be approximated in the weak sense by a standard perturbed gradient flow or the continuous-time stochastic gradient descent algorithm that solves the optimization problem for a composition of two functions. As an application, the perturbed compositional gradient flow corresponds to the diffusion limit of the Stochastic Composite Gradient Descent (SCGD) algorithm for minimizing a composition of two expected-value functions in the optimization literatures. For the strongly convex case, such an analysis implies that the SCGD algorithm has the same convergence time asymptotic as the classical stochastic gradient descent algorithm. Thus it validates, at the level of continuous approximation, the effectiveness of using the SCGD algorithm in the strongly convex case.

description: In $ν_μ \to ν_μ$ oscillations, we find that the effect of the CP phase $δ$ becomes large in the region $E<2$ GeV and $L>2000$ km. In this region, the change of the probability in this channel reaches about 0.4 due to the CP phase effect beyond our expectation in the case of large 1-3 mixing angle. Furthermore, the CP phase effect have almost same sign over the region $E>0.5$ GeV so that one may find the signal of CP violation by measuring the total rate only. As an example, we use an experimental setup and demonstrate that the allowed region is limited to one by combined analysis of $ν_e$ and $ν_μ$ events although there remain three allowed regions by the analysis of $ν_e$ events alone.

description: X-ray radiation damage provides a serious bottle neck for investigating μs to s dynamics on nanometer length scales employing X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy. This limitation hinders the investigation of real time dynamics in most soft matter and biological materials which can tolerate only X-ray doses of kGy and below. Here, we show that this bottleneck can be overcome by low dose X-ray speckle visibility spectroscopy. Employing X-ray doses of 22 kGy to 438 kGy and analyzing the sparse speckle pattern of count rates as low as 6.7x10-3 per pixel we follow the slow nanoscale dynamics of an ionic liquid (IL) at the glass transition. At the pre-peak of nanoscale order in the IL we observe complex dynamics upon approaching the glass transition temperature TG with a freezing in of the alpha relaxation and a multitude of milli-second local relaxations existing well below TG. We identify this fast relaxation as being responsible for the increasing development of nanoscale order observed in ILs at temperatures below TG.

 Note: See extensive discussion on the correct name for this taxon by López Gonzólez (in Anales Jard. Bot. Madrid 52: 102. 1994). He indicates 836.4 (LINN) as the lectotype, allegedly following Ball (in Feddes Repert. 64: 14. 1962), and reproduces the Morison figure (as his f. 1 on p. 98). Although Ball discussed the identity of this sheet and the Allioni figure (probably Rorippa pyrenaica (All.) Rchb.), he did not choose a type, concluding "As the name is illegitimate, the confusion and doubt as to the identity of this species does not have any serious nomenclatural consequences". It is illegitimate because it is a later homonym of S. pyrenaicum Loefl. (1758).

AdS and Lifshitz black hole solutions in conformal gravity sourced with a scalar field

description: In this paper we obtain exact asymptotically anti-de Sitter black hole solutions and asymptotically Lifshitz black hole solutions with dynamical exponents $z=0$ and $z=4$ of four-dimensional conformal gravity coupled with a self-interacting conformally invariant scalar field. Then, we compute their thermodynamical quantities, such as the mass, the Wald entropy and the Hawking temperature. The mass expression is obtained by using the generalized off-shell Noether potential formulation. It is found that the anti-de Sitter black holes as well as the Lifshitz black holes with $z=0$ have zero mass and zero entropy, although they have non-zero temperature. A similar behavior has been observed in previous works, where the integration constant is not associated with a conserved charge, and it can be interpreted as a kind of gravitational hair. On the other hand, the Lifshitz black holes with dynamical exponent $z=4$ have non-zero conserved charges, and the first law of black hole thermodynamics holds. Also, we analyze the horizon thermodynamics for the Lifshitz black holes with $z=4$, and we show that the first law of black hole thermodynamics arises from the field equations evaluated on the horizon. Furthermore, we study the propagation of a conformally coupled scalar field on these backgrounds and we find the quasinormal modes analytically in several cases. We find that for anti-de Sitter black holes and Lifshitz black holes with $z=4$, there is a continuous spectrum of frequencies for Dirichlet boundary condition; however, we show that discrete sets of well defined quasinormal frequencies can be obtained by considering Neumann boundary conditions.
Is astronomy possible with neutral ultra-high energy cosmic ray particles existing in the Standard Model?

description: The recently observed correlation between HiRes stereo cosmic ray events with energies E ~ 10 EeV and BL Lacs occurs at an angle which strongly suggests that the primary particles are neutral. We analyze whether this correlation, if not a statistical fluctuation, can be explained within the Standard Model, i.e., assuming only known particles and interactions. We have not found a plausible process which can account for these correlations. The mechanism which comes closest -- the conversion of protons into neutrons in the IR background of our Galaxy -- still under-produces the required flux of neutral particles by about 2 orders of magnitude. The situation is different at E ~ 100 EeV where the flux of cosmic rays at Earth may contain up to a few percent of neutrons pointing back to the extragalactic sources.

description: We present the results of a search for galaxy clusters in the first 36 XMM-Newton pointings on the COSMOS field. We reach a depth for a total cluster flux in the 0.5-2 keV band of 3x10-15 ergs cm-2 s-1, having one of the widest XMM-Newton contiguous raster surveys, covering an area of 2.1 square degrees. Cluster candidates are identified through a wavelet detection of extended X-ray emission. Verification of the cluster candidates is done based on a galaxy concentration analysis in redshift slices of thickness of 0.1-0.2 in redshift, using the multi-band photometric catalog of the COSMOS field and restricting the search to z<1.3 and i_AB < 25. We identify 72 clusters and derive their properties based on the X-ray cluster scaling relations. A statistical description of the survey in terms of the cumulative log(N>S)-lg(S) distribution compares well with previous results, although yielding a somewhat higher number of clusters at similar fluxes. The X-ray luminosity function of COSMOS clusters matches well the results of nearby surveys, providing a comparably tight constraint on the faint end slope of alpha=1.93+/-0.04. For the probed luminosity range of 8x10+42 - 2x10+44 ergs s-1, our survey is in agreement with and adds significantly to the existing data on the cluster luminosity function at high redshifts and implies no substantial evolution at these luminosities to z=1.3.

description: We study the interplay between superconductivity and non-Fermi liquid behavior of a Fermi surface coupled to a massless $SU(N)$ matrix boson near the quantum critical point. The presence of thermal infrared singularities in both the fermionic self-energy and the gap equation invalidates the Eliashberg approximation, and makes the quantum-critical pairing problem qualitatively different from that at zero temperature. Taking the large $N$ limit, we solve the gap equation beyond the Eliashberg approximation, and obtain the superconducting temperature $T_c$ as a function of $N$. Our results show an anomalous scaling between the zero-temperature gap and $T_c$. For $N$ greater than a critical value, we find that $T_c$ vanishes with a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless scaling behavior, and the system retains non-Fermi liquid behavior down to zero temperature. This confirms and extends previous renormalization-group analyses done at $T=0$, and provides a controlled example of a naked quantum critical point. We discuss the crucial role of thermal fluctuations in relating our results with earlier work where superconductivity always develops due to the special role of the first Matsubara frequency.

description: A quantum field theoretic treatment of inclusive deep--inelastic diffractive scattering is given. The process can be described in the general framework of non--forward scattering processes using the light--cone expansion in the generalized Bjorken region. Target mass and finite $t$ corrections of the diffractive hadronic tensor are derived at the level of the twist--2 contributions both for the unpolarized and the polarized case. They modify the expressions contributing in the limit $t, M^2 \to 0$ for larger values of $β$ or/and $t$ in the region of low $Q^2$. The different diffractive structure functions are expressed through integrals over the relative momentum of non--perturbative $t$--dependent 2--particle distribution functions. In the limit $t, M^2 \to 0$ these distribution functions are the diffractive parton distribution. Relations between the different diffractive structure functions are derived.
