Evidence for the charge asymmetry in $pp \rightarrow t\bar{t}$ production at $\sqrt{s}= 13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Inclusive and differential measurements of the top-antitop ($t\bar{t}$) charge asymmetry $A_\text{C}^{t\bar{t}}$ and the leptonic asymmetry $A_\text{C}^{\ell\bar{\ell}}$ are presented in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement uses the complete Run 2 dataset, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$, combines data in the single-lepton and dilepton channels, and employs reconstruction techniques adapted to both the resolved and boosted topologies. A Bayesian unfolding procedure is performed to correct for detector resolution and acceptance effects. The combined inclusive $t\bar{t}$ charge asymmetry is measured to be $A_\text{C}^{t\bar{t}} = 0.0068 \pm 0.0015$, which differs from zero by 4.7 standard deviations. Differential measurements are performed as a function of the invariant mass, transverse momentum and longitudinal boost of the $t\bar{t}$ system. Both the inclusive and differential measurements are found to be compatible with the Standard Model predictions, at next-to-next-to-leading order in quantum chromodynamics perturbation theory with next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections. The measurements are interpreted in the framework of the Standard Model effective field theory, placing competitive bounds on several Wilson coefficients.

description: We study the correlation between the [O III]$λ5007$ and X-ray luminosities of local Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), using a complete, hard X-ray ($>10$ keV) selected sample in the Swift/BAT 9-month catalog. From our optical spectroscopic observations at the South African Astronomical Observatory and the literature, a catalog of [O III]$λ5007$ line flux for all 103 AGNs at Galactic latitudes of $|b|>15^\circ$ is complied. Significant correlations with intrinsic X-ray luminosity ($L_{\rm X}$) are found both for observed ($L_{\rm [O~III]}$) and extinction-corrected ($L_{\rm [O~III]}^{\rm cor}$) luminosities, separately for X-ray unabsorbed and absorbed AGNs. We obtain the regression form of $L_{\rm [O~III]}$ $\propto L_{\rm 2-10\; keV}^{1.18\pm0.07}$ and $L_{\rm [O~III]}^{\rm cor}$ $\propto L_{\rm 2-10\; keV}^{1.16\pm0.09}$ from the whole sample.

description: A practical implementation of a quantum computer requires robust qubits that are protected against their noisy environment. Dynamical decoupling techniques have been successfully used in the past to offer protected high-fidelity gate operations in negatively-charged Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV-) centers in diamond, albeit under specific conditions with the intrinsic nitrogen nuclear spin initialised. In this work, we show how the SMART protocol, an extension of the dressed-qubit concept, can be implemented for continuous protection to offer Clifford gate fidelities compatible with fault-tolerant schemes, whilst prolonging the coherence time of a single NV- qubit at room temperature. We show an improvement in the average Clifford gate fidelity from $0.940\pm0.005$ for the bare qubit to $0.993\pm0.002$ for the SMART qubit, with the nitrogen nuclear spin in a random orientation. We further show a $\gtrsim$ 30 times improvement in the qubit coherence times compared to the bare qubit.

description: We report on an elementary quantum network of two atomic ions separated by 230 m. The ions are trapped in different buildings and connected with 520(2) m of optical fiber. At each network node, the electronic state of an ion is entangled with the polarization state of a single cavity photon; subsequent to interference of the photons at a beamsplitter, photon detection heralds entanglement between the two ions. Fidelities of up to $(88.2+2.3-6.0)\%$ are achieved with respect to a maximally entangled Bell state, with a success probability of $4 \times 10^{-5}$. We analyze the routes to improve these metrics, paving the way for long-distance networks of entangled quantum processors.
Targeting HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Metabolism Through Dietary and Pharmacological Interventions to Improve Therapeutic Efficacy
Creators: name: Rainey, Magdalena Alexandra
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: HER2-positive breast cancers (HER2+ BC) are an aggressive subset characterized by therapeutic resistance in ~40-60% of patients. We hypothesized that modulating energy-responsive pathways through either dietary restriction or pharmacological metabolic reprogramming interventions (MRI) would increase the efficacy of HER2-directed therapies trastuzumab and lapatinib. Dietary restriction was modeled in vitro and the efficacy of lapatinib was increased under serum-restricted conditions. This effect was recapitulated with MRIs and we determined that inhibition of IGF1R/insulin receptor and mTORC1 increased the antiproliferative effects of lapatinib. Ongoing work is investigating the impact of intermittent fasting regimens on therapeutic efficacy in vivo by restricting the dietary intake of mice with HER2+ BC for 48 hours coinciding with the administration of trastuzumab or lapatinib. We conclude that inhibition of metabolic pathways implicated in HER2+ BC drug resistance through intermittent fasting regimens and pharmacological MRIs has the potential to increase the efficacy of HER2-directed therapies.

description: Background As well as having a higher genetic vulnerability to psychiatric problems, children of a parent with schizophrenia suffer a significantly poorer quality of life than those with healthy parents. In mental healthcare settings, the well-being of these children is still overlooked. It is crucial to develop child-centered interventions for them. This scoping review focuses specifically on children of a parent with schizophrenia to identify the likely impacts on their life and development, the factors and strategies that may alleviate negative impacts, and available interventions. Methods We applied a systematic approach to search the following databases: PsycINFO, MEDLINE, Embase, Google Scholar, CNKI and CEPS to identify relevant English and Chinese publications focusing on children. Quality assessments of quantitative and qualitative studies were undertaken, using the Downs and Black instrument and the CASP Checklist respectively. Results After screening, thirty-three studies were included for review. The existing evidence indicates that children of a parent with schizophrenia experience multiple deficits. Although various factors have been identified that can potentially alleviate their negative experiences, few are well supported with solid empirical evidence that confirm causal effects. The needs of these children are commonly neglected: little professional support has been provided, and the usefulness of the available support has yet to be determined. Conclusions Based on the review, we argue that effective means should be implemented so that children of a parent with schizophrenia needing help can be identified and experts can overcome barriers to providing help. The potential modifiable factors that can alleviate the negative impacts of having a parent with schizophrenia on youngsters need to be tested and confirmed. Interventions should be evidence-based, schizophrenia-specific, and child-centered.

description: Despite very promising results, capturing the dynamics of complex quantum systems with neural-network ansätze has been plagued by several problems, one of which being stochastic noise that makes the dynamics unstable and highly dependent on some regularization hyperparameters. We present an alternative general scheme that enables one to capture long-time dynamics of quantum systems in a stable fashion, provided the neural-network ansatz is normalized, which can be ensured by the autoregressive property of the chosen ansatz. We then apply the scheme to time-dependent quench dynamics by investigating the Kibble-Zurek mechanism in the two-dimensional quantum Ising model. We find an excellent agreement with exact dynamics for small systems and are able to recover scaling laws in agreement with other variational methods.

GERMAN DEFENSE AND SECURITY POLICY—AN ONTOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE
Creators: name: Ellison, Davis Hunter
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: This thesis explains changing rhetorical justifications for German defense and security policy via an ontological security lens. It explores the roles that contested identity narratives play in shaping the public aspects of German policy by examining the cases of ongoing defense budget debates and the interventions/troop deployments in the Balkans, Afghanistan, and the NATO presence in the Baltic states.       Through these cases, it is demonstrated that policy is often justified not through appeals to the national interest or commitment to liberal values, but rather through appeals to historical memory and a German responsibility to a variety of interchangeable sub-narratives. As crises arise, various German governments activate and deactivate certain sub-narratives in order to present their response to the crisis in a way that is consistent with the German sense of self, thus demonstrating attempts to maintain ontological security. It also shown that these sub-narratives often come into conflict.

description: Device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) reduces the vulnerability to side-channel attacks of standard QKD protocols by removing the need for characterized quantum devices. The higher security guarantees come however, at the price of a challenging implementation. Here, we tackle the question of the conception of an experiment for implementing DIQKD with photonic devices. We introduce a technique combining reinforcement learning, optimisation algorithm and a custom efficient simulation of quantum optics experiments to automate the design of photonic setups maximizing a given function of the measurement statistics. Applying the algorithm to DIQKD, we get unexpected experimental configurations leading to high key rates and to a high resistance to loss and noise. These configurations might be helpful to facilitate a first implementation of DIQKD with photonic devices and for future developments targeting improved performances.

description: Assessment of the employment impact of renewable electricity technologies is generally implemented through either complex and data-intensive methods (such as Computable General Equilibrium models) or simplistic approaches, normally focused on specific energy generation technologies, such as employment factors. In contrast, this article proposes a transparent and easily reproducible econometric methodology based on the Vector Error Correction model that uses aggregated and widely available data. The model is applied to the power generation sector in the United Kingdom using annual data from 1990 onwards and provide evidence that the long-term employment impact of renewable technologies is much higher than the impact arising from deploying nuclear or natural gas technologies. The impulse response function analysis indicates that a permanent 1 Gigawatt-hours increase in annual electricity supply generated by renewable technologies creates 3.5 jobs in the long-term period. Finally, this study derives the implications of the findings in the context of decarbonisation scenarios for the power sector in the United Kingdom and assesses the extent to which decarbonisation pathways based on renewable rather than nuclear technologies contribute to stimulating employment in the generation sector.

description: This study presents a novel approach to the vehicle routing problem by focusing on greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumption aiming to mitigate adverse environmental effects of transportation. A time-dependent model with time windows is developed to incorporate speed and schedule in transportation. The model considers speed limits for different times of the day in a realistic delivery context. Due to the complexity of solving the model, a simulated annealing algorithm is proposed to find solutions with high quality in a timely manner. Our method can be used in practice to lower fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while total route cost is also controlled to some extent. The capability of method is depicted by numerical examples productively solved within 3.5% to the exact optimal for small and mid-sized problems. Moreover, comparatively appropriate solutions are obtained for large problems in averagely one tenth of the exact method restricted computation time.

description: Excitement about the promise of quantum computers is tempered by the reality that the hardware remains exceptionally fragile and error-prone, forming a bottleneck in the development of novel applications. In this manuscript, we describe and experimentally test a fully autonomous workflow designed to deterministically suppress errors in quantum algorithms from the gate level through to circuit execution and measurement. We introduce the key elements of this workflow, delivered as a software package called Fire Opal, and survey the underlying physical concepts: error-aware compilation, automated system-wide gate optimization, automated dynamical decoupling embedding for circuit-level error cancellation, and calibration-efficient measurement-error mitigation. We then present a comprehensive suite of performance benchmarks executed on IBM hardware, demonstrating up to > 1000X improvement over the best alternative expert-configured techniques available in the open literature. Benchmarking includes experiments using up to 16 qubit systems executing: Bernstein Vazirani, Quantum Fourier Transform, Grover's Search, QAOA, VQE, Syndrome extraction on a five-qubit Quantum Error Correction code, and Quantum Volume. Experiments reveal a strong contribution of Non-Markovian errors to baseline algorithmic performance; in all cases the deterministic error-suppression workflow delivers the highest performance and approaches incoherent error bounds without the need for any additional sampling or randomization overhead, while maintaining compatibility with all additional probabilistic error suppression techniques.

Legible Citizens: Writing Uyghur Women into the Chinese Nation

description: It’s common knowledge that the People’s Republic of China was established as a multi-ethnic state in 1949. But what did this actually mean for populations at the fringes of the new nation?  This thesis uses sources from the popular press read against official publications to tease out the implications of state policies and examine exactly how the state intended to incorporate Uyghur women into the Chinese nation, and how these new subjects were intended to embody the roles of woman, ethnic minority, and Chinese citizen.  While official texts are repositories of ideals, texts from the popular press attempt to graph these ideals onto individual narratives. In this failure to perfectly accord personal encounters with CCP ideals, these authors create a narrative fissure in which it is possible to see the implications of official minority policy. Focusing on three central stories from the popular press, this thesis probes into the assumptions held concerning the manifestation of Uyghur citizenship and the role of Uyghur women as subjects of the Chinese state as seen through intended relationships with Han women, Uyghur men, party apparati, the public eye, and civil law. What emerges through these readings is a clear case that, regardless of individual intentions, the PRC did not conceptualize Uyghur women as capable of obtaining citizenship on equal footing.  Instead, Uyghur women were projected as fundamentally in need of external aid and tutelage from more advanced ethnicities. Uyghur women were granted access to the rights and opportunities allocated to citizens only through self-elected subjugation to the state. Their perpetuated adolescence and dependence on the Chinese state served to consolidate the Chinese cultural-political core and justify Chinese state-led intervention and development in Xinjiang.

description: The Task 4.2 of Project Ô aims at shedding light on the economic and operational drivers that could
 foster the adoption of new reuse technologies. More specifically, it models capital, operating and
 resource expenses and savings for the reference technologies identified based on interactions with
 other partners and collecting data from the extant literature, while at the same time identifying the
 possible policy and price regulation options and operational conditions that may be considered for
 the deployment of such technologies. Project Ô Task 4.2 performs a comprehensive analysis of the adoption of the new reuse technologies by water utilities, including the identification of conditions that spur the adoption decision and the analysis
 of the impacts on the water system stakeholders.

Exact mean-field solution of a spin chain with short-range and long-range interactions

description: We consider the transverse field Ising model with additional all-to-all interactions between the spins. We show that a mean-field treatment of this model becomes exact in the thermodynamic limit, despite the presence of 1D short-range interactions. This is established by looking for eigenstates as coherent states with an amplitude that varies through the Hilbert space. We study then the thermodynamics of the model and identify the different phases. Among its peculiar features, this 1D model possesses a second-order phase transition at finite temperature and exhibits inverse melting.

Interpreting the Mechanism of Synergism for Drug Combinations Using Attention-Based Hierarchical Graph Pooling

description: Synergistic drug combinations provide huge potentials to enhance therapeutic efficacy and to reduce adverse reactions. However, effective and synergistic drug combination prediction remains an open question because of the unknown causal disease signaling pathways. Though various deep learning (AI) models have been proposed to quantitatively predict the synergism of drug combinations, the major limitation of existing deep learning methods is that they are inherently not interpretable, which makes the conclusions of AI models untransparent to human experts, henceforth limiting the robustness of the model conclusion and the implementation ability of these models in real-world human--AI healthcare. In this paper, we develop an interpretable graph neural network (GNN) that reveals the underlying essential therapeutic targets and the mechanism of the synergy (MoS) by mining the sub-molecular network of great importance. The key point of the interpretable GNN prediction model is a novel graph pooling layer, a self-attention-based node and edge pool (henceforth SANEpool), that can compute the attention score (importance) of genes and connections based on the genomic features and topology. As such, the proposed GNN model provides a systematic way to predict and interpret the drug combination synergism based on the detected crucial sub-molecular network. Experiments on various well-adopted drug-synergy-prediction datasets demonstrate that (1) the SANEpool model has superior predictive ability to generate accurate synergy score prediction, and (2) the sub-molecular networks detected by the SANEpool are self-explainable and salient for identifying synergistic drug combinations.

description: While globally water reuse is of great interest to contrast the projected increase in global and local water demands, water loops have the potential to become an essential component of integrated water management strategies in water-stressed regions. ProjectÔ Work Package 4 targets the design, development, and testing of an ICT-based decision-analytic platform (DAP) to support policy makers in selecting robust and efficient water planning portfolios, integrating traditional water management strategies and water reuse technologies. The Deliverable D4.4 (Robust portfolios planning and vulnerability analysis) presents the analysis performed in the Task T4.3 (Robust portfolios planning) for Demo site 1, the case study of the Apulian Aqueduct (AQP) system, Italy. T4.3 makes use of the methodologies developed in the Task T4.1 (Multi-objective water planning portfolios design) and presented in the Deliverable D4.1 (Multi- objective water planning portfolios design under baseline conditions), extending the analysis to future hydro-climatic and socio-economic scenarios. Our analysis shows that the combined effect of climate and socio-economic changes will dramatically affect the Apulia water system, leading to an unsustainable pressure on the freshwater resources. In addition, the respect of the constraints related to the environmental flows will further reduce the operation space. The adoption of water reuse technologies can remarkably reduce the water deficit, but specific mitigation actions adopted can only partially compensate the effect of climatic and socio-economic changes. In this context, a wide diffusion of the water loops has to be promoted in order to limit a dramatic increase of water shortages and of all the related issues.
A stable fluid-structure-interaction solver for low-density rigid bodies using the immersed boundary projection method

description: Dispersion of low-density rigid particles with complex geometries is ubiquitous in both natural and industrial environments. We show that while explicit methods for coupling the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and Newton's equations of motion are often sufficient to solve for the motion of cylindrical particles with low density ratios, for more complex particles - such as a body with a protrusion - they become unstable. We present an implicit formulation of the coupling between rigid body dynamics and fluid dynamics within the framework of the immersed boundary projection method. Similarly to previous work on this method, the resulting matrix equation in the present approach is solved using a block-LU decomposition. Each step of the block-LU decomposition is modified to incorporate the rigid body dynamics. We show that our method achieves second-order accuracy in space and first-order in time (third-order for practical settings), only with a small additional computational cost to the original method. Our implicit coupling yields stable solution for density ratios as low as $10^{-4}$. We also consider the influence of fictitious fluid located inside the rigid bodies on the accuracy and stability of our method.
