Neutrinoless double beta decay from a modern perspective
Creators: name: Vergados, J. D.
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Neutrinoless double beta decay is a very important process both from the particle and nuclear physics point of view. From the elementary particle point of view it pops up in almost every model. giving rise, among others, to the following mechanisms: a) The traditional contributions like the light neutrino mass mechanism . b) The exotic R-parity violating supersymmetric (SUSY) contributions. Similar considerations apply to its sister lepton and muon number violating muon to positron conversion. The observation of neutrinoless double beta decay will signal that the neutrinos are massive Majorana particles. For nuclear physics it is challenging, because: 1) The nuclei, which can undergo double beta decay, have complicated structure. 2) The energetically allowed transitions are suppressed. 3) One must cope with the short distance behavior of the transition operators. Thus novel effects (decay of pions in flight between nucleons etc) have to be considered. 4) One has to take into account possible momentum dependent terms of the nucleon current. For light neutrinos such modifications of the nucleon current reduce the nuclear matrix elements by about 25 per cent. In the case of heavy neutrino the effect is much larger and model dependent. With the above effects the nuclear matrix elements for all interesting nuclei A = 76, 82, 96, 100, 116, 128, 130, 136 and 150 are discussed. Some have been obtained in the shell model but most in QRPA. Thus we have extracted new limits on the various lepton violating parameters. We find an average neutrino mass of about 0.5eV and, for reasonable choices of the parameters of SUSY models, we get a stringent limit on the R-parity violating parameter less than 0.00068.

description: We show how to relate moments of the reconstructed hadronic invariant mass distribution to the moments of the physical spectrum in a model independent way. The only information needed on detector resolution functions are their first few moments.

Ground State Wave Function Overlap in Superconductors and Superfluids

description: In order to elucidate the quantum ground state structure of non-relativistic condensates, we explicitly construct the ground state wave function for multiple species of bosons, describing either superconductivity or superfluidity. Since each field $Ψ_j$ carries a phase $θ_j$ and the Lagrangian is invariant under rotations $θ_j \to θ_j + α_j$ for independent $α_j$, one can investigate the corresponding wave function overlap between a pair of ground states $\langle G|G'\rangle$ differing by these phases. We operate in the infinite volume limit and use a particular prescription to define these states by utilizing the position space kernel and regulating the UV modes. We show that this overlap vanishes for most pairs of rotations, including $θ_j \to θ_j + m_j ε$, where $m_j$ is the mass of each species, while it is unchanged under the transformation $θ_j \to θ_j + q_j ε$, where $q_j$ is the charge of each species. We explain that this is consistent with the distinction between a superfluid, in which there is a non-trivial conserved number, and the superconductor, in which the electric field and conserved charge is screened, while it is compatible with a non-zero order parameter in both cases. Moreover, we find that this bulk ground state wave function overlap directly reflects the Goldstone boson structure of the effective theory and provides a useful diagnostic of its physical phase.

description: Each year, approximately 48 million people become ill from foodborne illnesses in the United States. In only 20 percent of these cases (9.4 million illnesses) can a specific pathogen cause be identified; over 90 percent of these cases are caused by only 15 pathogens. This report summarizes recent estimates showing that these 9.4 million illnesses impose over $15.5 billion in economic burden annually. The report also provides “pamphlets” for each of these 15 foodborne pathogens that include: (1) a summary of information about the pathogen’s foodborne illness incidence and economic burden relative to other foodborne pathogens; (2) a disease-outcome tree showing the number of people experiencing different outcomes caused by foodborne exposure to the pathogen in the United States each year; and (3) a pie chart showing the economic burden associated with different health outcomes resulting from infection with the pathogen. This report complements the ERS data product, Cost-of-Illness Estimates for Major Foodborne Illnesses in the U.S.

description: We study the superconducting instability mediated by spin fluctuations in the Eliashberg theory for a minimal two-band model of iron-based superconductors. While antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations can drive superconductivity (SC) as is well established, we find that spin fluctuations necessarily contain a contribution to suppress SC even though SC can eventually occur at lower temperatures. This self-restraint effect stems from a general feature of the spin-fluctuation mechanism, namely the repulsive pairing interaction, which leads to phase frustration of the pairing gap and consequently the suppression of SC.

The spectrum of HD46223
Creators: name: Zagury, Frederic
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The spectrum of HD46223 was established from the optical to the far UV and normalized by the spectrum of a non reddened star of same spectral type. The resulting spectrum is separated into two components. One is the direct starlight. The second is an additional component of light scattered at small angles. In the optical the spectrum is dominated by direct starlight which decreases exponentially due to the linear extinction. Scattered light begins to be noticeable in the near-UV. The near-UV rise of the scattered light is interrupted in the bump region. The wavelength dependence of the scattered light is established in the far-UV, where scattered light dominates the extinction curve. A 1/lambda^4 dependence is found, proving the presence of grains small compared to UV wavelengths. The mathematic expressions of the different components mentionned above give a good fit to the extinction curve in the direction of the star. On a mathematic standpoint the fit can be completed by a Lorentzien for the 2200Ang. bump region. The physical interpretation of the bump may be more difficult to achieve since the paper shows the possibility that only scattered light is extinguished in the bump region. Consequences for the grain size distribution which is necessary to explain the different aspects of scattering in interstellar clouds, for the value of Rv, and problems raised by this interpretation of the spectrum of HD46223, are considered at the end of this paper.

description: We investigate nonresonant contributions to resonant Rayleigh scattering cross sections of atoms. The problematic nonresonant contributions set a limit to the accuracy to which atomic spectra determine energy levels. We discuss the off-resonance effects in one-photon transitions. We also show that off-resonance contributions for the 1S-2S two-photon transition in atomic hydrogen are negligible at current and projected levels of experimental accuracy. The possibility of a differential measurement for the detection of off-resonance effects in one-photon transitions in atomic hydrogen is discussed.

K-Medians, Facility Location, and the Chernoff-Wald Bound

description: The paper gives approximation algorithms for the k-medians and facility-location problems (both NP-hard). For k-medians, the algorithm returns a solution using at most ln(n+n/epsilon)k medians and having cost at most (1+epsilon) times the cost of the best solution that uses at most k medians. Here epsilon > 0 is an input to the algorithm. In comparison, the best previous algorithm (Jyh-Han Lin and Jeff Vitter, 1992) had a (1+1/epsilon)ln(n) term instead of the ln(n+n/epsilon) term in the performance guarantee. For facility location, the algorithm returns a solution of cost at most d+ln(n) k, provided there exists a solution of cost d+k where d is the assignment cost and k is the facility cost. In comparison, the best previous algorithm (Dorit Hochbaum, 1982) returned a solution of cost at most ln(n)(d+k). For both problems, the algorithms currently provide the best performance guarantee known for the general (non-metric) problems. The paper also introduces a new probabilistic bound (called "Chernoff-Wald bound") for bounding the expectation of the maximum of a collection of sums of random variables, when each sum contains a random number of terms. The bound is used to analyze the randomized rounding scheme that underlies the algorithms.

Addressing transversity with interference fragmentation functions
Creators: name: Radici, M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The class of interference fragmentation functions, arising from interference among different hadron production channels, is reconsidered. Their symmetry properties with respect to chiral transformations allow building spin asymmetries where the quark transversity distribution can be factorized out at leading twist. For the case of two leading spinless hadrons inside the same current jet, the pair system is expanded in relative partial waves. The cross section is represented on the helicity basis of the target and the fragmenting quark, as well as on the relative orbital angular momentum of the pair. From the decay matrix being positive semi-definite, new bounds on the interference fragmentation functions can be derived. The expansion in partial waves allows to naturally incorporate in a unified formalism specific cases already studied in the literature, such as the fragmentation functions arising from the interference of two mesons in relative s and p waves, as well as the fragmentation of a spin-1 hadron.

description: The spread of infectious livestock diseases can be considered a form of “biological pollution.” Prior literature asserts trade-related biological pollution externalities arise from trade in contaminated goods. However, this literature ignores (i) importers’ ability to reduce disease spillovers via private risk management choices and (ii) the potential for strategic interactions to arise when an importer’s risk management measures simultaneously protect himself and others. This paper explores the design of efficient disease prevention policies when importers can mitigate disease risks to others. We demonstrate that the biological pollution externality extends beyond trade-related activities—in contrast to prior work—and derive efficient policy incentives to internalize the externality. We also find spillovers between importers may be characterized by strategic complementarities, leading to multiple Nash-equilibrium levels of risk-mitigating activities. Additional command-and-control policies may also be needed alongside priced-based incentives to achieve efficiency in this case.
The radiative return at phi- and B-factories: small-angle photon emission at next to leading order

description: The radiative return offers the unique possibility for a measurement of the cross section of electron--positron annihilation into hadrons over a wide range of energies. The large luminosity of present phi- and B-factories easily compensates for the additional factor of alpha due to the emission of a hard photon. Final states with photons at large angles can be easily identified. The rate for events with collinear photons, however, is enhanced by a large logarithm and allows, in particular at lower energies, for a complementary measurement. The Monte Carlo generator PHOKHARA, which includes next to leading order corrections from virtual and real photon emission, has been extended from large photon angles into the collinear region, using recent results for the virtual corrections. In addition, the present version includes final state radiation for muon and pion pair production and final states with four pions. Implications for the experimental analysis at three typical energies, 1.02, 4 and 10.6 GeV, are presented: the magnitude of these new corrections is studied, possibilities for the separation of initial and final state radiation are proposed, and the differences with respect to the previous treatment based on structure functions are investigated.

description: Glyphosate, known by many trade names, including Roundup, is a highly effective herbicide. Widespread glyphosate use for corn and soybean has led to glyphosate resistance, which is now documented in 14 weed species affecting U.S. cropland, and recent surveys suggest that acreage with glyphosate-resistant (GR) weeds is expanding. Data from USDA’s Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS), along with the Benchmark Study (conducted independently by plant scientists), are used to address several issues raised by the spread of GR weeds. Choices made by growers that could help manage glyphosate resistance include using glyphosate during fewer years, combining it with one or more alternative herbicides, and, most importantly, not applying glyphosate during consecutive growing seasons. As a result, managing glyphosate resistance is more cost effective than ignoring it, and after about 2 years, the cumulative impact of the returns received is higher when managing instead of ignoring resistance.

description: The Europe-wide efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions will lead to an increased demand for composite components in the field of mobility and energy distribution. Combined deep drawing and cold forging, called Draw-Forging, has the potential to meet the demand for mass production of these composite parts. Draw-Forging enables the manufacturing of composite shafts from a core- and a sheet metal semi-finished product by a combination of deep drawing and extrusion. The focus of the basic research is on the manufacturing of steel-clad aluminium shafts. A comprehensive process window can be determined on the basis of the experiments. Four possible process failures are determined. During the deep drawing process, the force required to upset the core material must not be less than or equal to the force required to deep draw the blank. Furthermore, the process defects, crack of the blank, gap between blank and core and not sufficient formed component head are observed. The process errors can be reliably prevented by the specific selection of the process parameters. The developed analytical model for predicting the punch force required is able to predict the punch force with deviations of less than 16%. The model is robust against variations of the geometry and material parameters and can be used for the tool design. In addition, it gives an insight into the process mechanics. Furthermore, both a force fit and a form fit, caused by the deep drawing and redrawing part of the process, were determined. Establishing a material bond by the use of aluminium-steel pairing could be ruled out based on experimental and numerical results. The joining strength is larger than 40% of the shear yield stress of the aluminium. Alternative material-pairings, chip-cores, double stepped shafts manufactured by process extension of conventional redrawing, are explored demonstrating the technological potential of the process. In the course of this research the Expanding-Draw-Forging was developed and the patent is submitted. By utilizing annular blanks, it is possible to cover each step of a shaft with a shell material that meets the load requirements of the step.

description: Deforestation in Sub-Saharan Africa remains a substantial problem. Increasing scarcity of fuelwood can be significant burden to households, as fuelwood is a key component of the energy profile of a rural Sub-Saharan household. However, households do not only collect their fuelwood from off-farm, but also produce it on-farm and purchase it from the market. This paper studies substitution between fuelwood sources for rural Kenyan households. Conducting analysis using shadow prices for household fuelwood in a non-separable theoretical framework, we find that strict gender divisions in household labor contribute to a lack of substitution between fuelwood sources. Because fuelwood production on the farm is more sustainable than off-farm collection, gender divisions inhibit reforestation efforts in this area. This paper finds a direct linkage between women and environmental well-being, and concludes that reforestation efforts in SSA will likely be ineffective until labor substitution between genders increase.

description: We investigate the self-organization of point-particles with short-range interactions modeled via simple 1D and 2D Hubbard-like models. We show how various properties emerge such as, boson-like ordering leading to topological structures in real space, via the clustering of the particles at discrete energy levels, which can be analyzed using a network/graph mathematical language. We calculate analytically the number of clusters, the correlations between them and topological numbers like the Euler characteristic, deriving different organizational schemes and entanglement entropy scaling laws. All calculations are performed for an arbitrary number of particles N and energy of the system E. Our results demonstrate how orders with diverse topological/geometric and entanglement features, emerge in strongly interacting many-body systems, that follow minimal microscopic interaction rules.

description: In this paper, we employ a framework that allows us to jointly model the response to the stated choice component as well as the response to the attribute processing questions for organic product attributes among consumers in Nigeria. The model allows us to make use of respondent reported information on processing strategies and conditions attribute parameters on underlying latent attribute importance ratings, while avoiding the potential endogeneity bias and measurement error problems arising with traditional methods. Using between-sample design, we compare the welfare estimates from respondents under cheap talk and honesty priming treatments. Our results suggest that the HP task leads to lower WTP values by a factor of two relative to cheap talk task, for three of the four attributes identified. Our findings also reveal some modest impacts on implied WTP patterns, with a more realistic difference between the valuations for the attributes, and lower overall heterogeneity relative to the commonly used mixed multinomial logit model.

description: Deep-UV light detection has important application in surveillance and homeland security regions. CH3NH3PbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) materials have outstanding optical absorption and electronic transport properties suitable for obtaining excellent deep-UV photoresponse. In this work, we grown high-quality CH3NH3PbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) bulk crystals and used them to fabricate photodetectors. We found that they all behave high-sensitive and fast-speed response to 255 nm deep-UV light. Their responsivities are 10–103 times higher than MgZnO and Ga2O3 detectors, and their response speed are 103 times faster than Ga2O3 and ZnO detectors. These results indicate a new promising route for deep-UV detection.

description: We present residual-based a posteriori error estimates of mixed finite element methods for the three-field formulation of Biot's consolidation model. The error estimator is an upper and lower bound of the space time discretization error up to data oscillation. As a by-product, we also obtain new a posteriori error estimate of mixed finite element methods for the heat equation.

description: Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$ be an elliptic curve of conductor $N$, let $p>3$ be a prime where $E$ has good ordinary reduction, and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field satisfying the Heegner hypothesis. In 1987, Perrin-Riou formulated an Iwasawa main conjecture for the Tate-Shafarevich group of $E$ over the anticyclotomic $\mathbf{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ in terms of Heegner points. In this paper, we give a proof of Perrin-Riou's conjecture under mild hypotheses. Our proof builds on Howard's theory of bipartite Euler systems and Wei Zhang's work on Kolyvagin's conjecture. In the case when $p$ splits in $K$, we also obtain a proof of the Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture for the $p$-adic $L$-functions of Bertolini-Darmon-Prasanna.

A note on CFT dual of RS model with gauge fields in bulk

description: It has been conjectured that the (weakly coupled) Randall-Sundrum (RS) model with gauge fields in the bulk is dual to a (strongly coupled) 4D conformal field theory (CFT) with an UV cut-off and in which global symmetries of the CFT are gauged. We elucidate features of this dual CFT which are crucial for a complete understanding of the proposed duality. We argue that the limit of no (or small) brane-localized kinetic term for bulk gauge field on the RS side (often studied in the literature) is dual to no bare kinetic term for the gauge field which is coupled to the CFT global current. In this limit, the kinetic term for this gauge field in the dual CFT is ``induced'' by CFT loops. Then, this CFT loop contribution to the gauge field 1PI two-point function is dual (on the RS side) to the full gauge propagator (i.e., including the contribution of Kaluza-Klein and zero-modes) with both external points on the Planck brane. We also emphasize that loop corrections to the gauge coupling on the RS side are dual to sub-leading effects in a large-N expansion on the CFT side; these sub-leading corrections to the gauge coupling in the dual CFT are (in general) sensitive to the strong dynamics of the CFT.

The standard theory of extinction and the spectrum of stars with very little reddening
Creators: name: Zagury, Frederic
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper examines the relationship between spectra of stars of same spectral type with extremely low reddenings. According to the standard theory, the relationship between the spectrum of stars with same spectral type and small, but different reddenings should be different in the optical and in the UV. This difference is not observed: the ratio of the spectra of two stars in directions where the reddening is large enough to be detected and low enough not to give a noticeable 2200Ang. bump is an exponential of 1/lambda from the near-infrared to the far-UV. This result is in conformity with the ideas introduced in preceding papers: the exponential optical extinction extends to the UV, and the spectrum of stars with enough reddening is contaminated by light scattered at close angular distance from the stars. An application will be the determination of the spectrum of a non-reddened star from the spectrum of a star of same spectral type with little reddening.

MaLTESE: Large-Scale Simulation-Driven Machine Learning for Transient Driving Cycles

description: Optimal engine operation during a transient driving cycle is the key to achieving greater fuel economy, engine efficiency, and reduced emissions. In order to achieve continuously optimal engine operation, engine calibration methods use a combination of static correlations obtained from dynamometer tests for steady-state operating points and road and/or track performance data. As the parameter space of control variables, design variable constraints, and objective functions increases, the cost and duration for optimal calibration become prohibitively large. In order to reduce the number of dynamometer tests required for calibrating modern engines, a large-scale simulation-driven machine learning approach is presented in this work. A parallel, fast, robust, physics-based reduced-order engine simulator is used to obtain performance and emission characteristics of engines over a wide range of control parameters under various transient driving conditions (drive cycles). We scale the simulation up to 3,906 nodes of the Theta supercomputer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility to generate data required to train a machine learning model. The trained model is then used to predict various engine parameters of interest. Our results show that a deep-neural-network-based surrogate model achieves high accuracy for various engine parameters such as exhaust temperature, exhaust pressure, nitric oxide, and engine torque. Once trained, the deep-neural-network-based surrogate model is fast for inference: it requires about 16 micro sec for predicting the engine performance and emissions for a single design configuration compared with about 0.5 s per configuration with the engine simulator. Moreover, we demonstrate that transfer learning and retraining can be leveraged to incrementally retrain the surrogate model to cope with new configurations that fall outside the training data space.

description: The efficient numerical simulation of nonequilibrium real-time evolution in isolated quantum matter constitutes a key challenge for current computational methods. This holds in particular in the regime of two spatial dimensions, whose experimental exploration is currently pursued with strong efforts in quantum simulators. In this work we present a versatile and efficient machine learning inspired approach based on a recently introduced artificial neural network encoding of quantum many-body wave functions. We identify and resolve some key challenges for the simulation of time evolution, which previously imposed significant limitations on the accurate description of large systems and long-time dynamics. As a concrete example, we study the dynamics of the paradigmatic two-dimensional transverse field Ising model, as recently also realized experimentally in systems of Rydberg atoms. Calculating the nonequilibrium real-time evolution across a broad range of parameters, we, for instance, observe collapse and revival oscillations of ferromagnetic order and demonstrate that the reached time scales are comparable to or exceed the capabilities of state-of-the-art tensor network methods.

description: This paper explores the returns to grain producers and processors of expending efforts to determine hedge ratios. We use cash and futures prices from Barchart.com and multi-location cash prices from the Daily Grain Review to determine if location-specific hedge ratios are superior to hedge ratios estimated for a central location then used for hedging at the specific location. We find that the price-risk management capabilities of single location hedge ratios computed the Barchart data perform well in hedging grains at other locations. This suggests that producers and processors should not invest heavily in determining precise hedge ratios that apply to a particular location. In other words, “good enough” hedge ratios are in fact good enough.
