description: The single and multiple electron loss of fast highly charged projectiles in the collisions with neutral molecules are studied within the framework of a nonperturbative approach. The cross sections for single, double, and triple electron losses are calculated for the collision system $Fe^{q+}\to N_2$ ($q$=24, 25, 26) at the collision energies 10, 100, and 1000 MeV/u. The effects caused by the collision multiplicity and the orientation of the axis of target molecule are treated. It is shown that collision multiplicity effect leads to considerable differences for the cases of perpendicular and parallel orientations of the molecular axes with respect to the direction of the projectile motion, while for chaotic orientation such effect is negligible.
GENETIC ALGORITHM-BASED CNN OPTIMIZATION FOR DRIVER DROWSINESS DETECTION
Creators: name: ADVANCED RESEARCH AND INNOVATIONS JOURNAL
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Convolutional neural networks are enhanced by genetic algorithms to detect drowsy drivers. Detection enhances model performance by locating the optimal hyperparameters. In this approach, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are employed to modify learning rates, filter dimension, and layer layout. By repeatedly modifying CNN parameters through mutation, selection, and crossover, genetic algorithms enhance detection performance. Eye closing and yawning patterns are crucial facial signals that the upgraded CNN records for real-time fatigue measurement. In addition to reducing handling costs and overfitting, this strategy makes items more durable. The results demonstrate that, compared to conventional CNNs, the convergence process is quicker and more accurate. This system improves traffic safety by consistently monitoring drivers. Researchers will primarily focus on real-world applications and ways to integrate many sensors in the future.

Genetic modifiers of telomere maintenance and their contributions to phenotypic variations in telomere biology disorders
Creators: name: Xu, Jialin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Telomeres, the protective caps at the end of human chromosomes, are shortened during cellular proliferation in normal aging. Telomere biology disorders (TBDs) refer to a spectrum of tissue degenerative disorders caused by accelerated shortening of telomeres secondary to genetic defects in telomere biology genes. Defects in eleven genes involved in telomere length maintenance have been found to cause TBDs. Accelerated telomere shortening leads to premature aging at the cellular level and regenerative defects at the tissue level. TBD-related genetic defects, in concert with intrinsic tissue turn-over rate and various environmental insults that precipitate telomere shortening, determine the aging process of specific tissues and the clinical presentations of TBDs. The main objective of this dissertation is to investigate the genetic factors that contribute to phenotypic variations of TBDs. The thesis is divided into two sections based on the presentations of TBDs in fast- and slow-turnover tissues. In Chapter 2, using patient-derived cell models and DNA samples, I comprehensively assessed the molecular and cellular phenotypes of X-linked dyskeratosis congenita (X-DC) in female DKC1 mutation carriers. I demonstrated that successful X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in their blood cells led to normal dyskerin expression and function and thus normal telomere length maintenance. These populations should be free of hematopoietic disease manifestations. In contrast, protection from XCI in tissue compartments other than the hematopoietic system may not be complete, and DC manifestations could be observed in a patient-specific manner depending on the sum total of the environmental and inherited telomere lengths as confounding factors. Extending from the observation with phenotypic variations in female DKC1 mutation carriers, I further investigated how incomplete genetic perturbations of telomerase activity may impact clinical presentations of a common disease. In Chapter 3, using a combination of cell and clinical disease models, I showed that functional defects in telomerase catalytic activity, caused by selected genetic polymorphisms in TERT, led to suboptimal telomere length maintenance. Rapid progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases is associated with patients’ carrying status of the minor allele of rs61748181. Collectively, my study revealed two genetic modifiers for potential causes of phenotypic variations in TBDs.

description: Graphene spintronics is an emerging field of research that exploresthe use of graphene's extraordinary spin and charge transport properties tomanipulate and control the electron spin degree of freedom for potentialapplications in information processing and data storage. Particularly interestingare graphene-based van-der-Waals heterostructures, which allow the creation oftailored spintronic properties, emerging from proximity effects, without destroyingthe unique Dirac states. The possibility to induce customized spin-orbit andexchange coupling in graphene, via band structure engineering, can lead totopologically protected edge states for dissipationless electronics and spintronics.In flat-band graphene materials, in particular, magic-angle bilayer graphene andrhombohedral (ABC stacked) trilayer graphene, the coupling between spin andvalley (orbital) degrees of freedom can be coupled by strong Coulomb interactions,leading to a variety of fascinating correlated and superconducting phases. Theemerging isospin electronics, combining both the electron spin and valley flavors,can transform the landscape of low-temperature electronics and lead to novelfunctionalities based on quantum matter. This Perspective explores the latestadvancements in proximity effects, topological states, and correlated physics ingraphene-based van der Waals heterostructures, discussing the fundamentals forpotential applications.
Effective Model Approach to the Dense State of QCD Matter
Creators: name: Fukushima, Kenji
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The first-principle approach to the dense state of QCD matter, i.e. the lattice-QCD simulation at finite baryon density, is not under theoretical control for the moment. The effective model study based on QCD symmetries is a practical alternative. However the model parameters that are fixed by hadronic properties in the vacuum may have unknown dependence on the baryon chemical potential. We propose a new prescription to constrain the effective model parameters by the matching condition with the thermal Statistical Model. In the transitional region where thermal quantities blow up in the Statistical Model, deconfined quarks and gluons should smoothly take over the relevant degrees of freedom from hadrons and resonances. We use the Polyakov-loop coupled Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model as an effective description in the quark side and show how the matching condition is satisfied by a simple ansatz on the Polyakov loop potential. Our results favor a phase diagram with the chiral phase transition located at slightly higher temperature than deconfinement which stays close to the chemical freeze-out points.

The targum (1883:June 8 - 1883:June 29)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1883

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
Exploring phase transitions by finite-entanglement scaling of MPS in the 1D ANNNI model

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We use the finite-entanglement scaling of infinite matrix product states (iMPS) to explore supposedly infinite order transitions. This universal method may have lower computational costs than finite-size scaling. To this end, we study possible MPS-based algorithms to find the ground states of the transverse axial next-nearest-neighbor Ising (ANNNI) model in a spin chain with first and second neighbor interactions and frustration. The ground state has four distinct phases with transitions of second order and one of supposedly infinite order, the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. To explore phase transitions in the model, we study general quantities such as the correlation length, entanglement entropy and the second derivative of the energy with respect to the external field, and test the finite-entanglement scaling. We propose a scaling ansatz for the correlation length of a non-critical system in order to explore infinite order transitions. This method provides considerably less computational costs compared to the finite-size scaling method in [8], and quantities obtained by applying fixed boundary conditions (such as domain wall energy in [8]) are omitted. The results show good agreement with previous studies of finite-size scaling using DMRG.

description: We describe a wavefunction engineering approach to the formation of textures in a two-component nonrotated Bose-Einstein condensate. By controlling the phases of wavepackets that combine in a three-wave interference process, a ballistically-expanding regular lattice-texture is generated, in which the phases determine the component textures. A particular example is presented of a lattice-texture composed of half-quantum vortices and spin-2 textures. We demonstrate the lattice formation with numerical simulations of a viable experiment, identifying the textures and relating their locations to a linear theory of wavepacket interference.

description: We show how to compute Casimir forces at nonzero temperatures with time-domain electromagnetic simulations, for example using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Compared to our previous zero-temperature time-domain method, only a small modification is required, but we explain that some care is required to properly capture the zero-frequency contribution. We validate the method against analytical and numerical frequency-domain calculations, and show a surprising high-temperature disappearance of a non-monotonic behavior previously demonstrated in a piston-like geometry.

Peer-review in a world with rational scientists: Toward selection of the average

description: One of the virtues of peer review is that it provides a self-regulating selection mechanism for scientific work, papers and projects. Peer review as a selection mechanism is hard to evaluate in terms of its efficiency. Serious efforts to understand its strengths and weaknesses have not yet lead to clear answers. In theory peer review works if the involved parties (editors and referees) conform to a set of requirements, such as love for high quality science, objectiveness, and absence of biases, nepotism, friend and clique networks, selfishness, etc. If these requirements are violated, what is the effect on the selection of high quality work? We study this question with a simple agent based model. In particular we are interested in the effects of rational referees, who might not have any incentive to see high quality work other than their own published or promoted. We find that a small fraction of incorrect (selfish or rational) referees can drastically reduce the quality of the published (accepted) scientific standard. We quantify the fraction for which peer review will no longer select better than pure chance. Decline of quality of accepted scientific work is shown as a function of the fraction of rational and unqualified referees. We show how a simple quality-increasing policy of e.g. a journal can lead to a loss in overall scientific quality, and how mutual support-networks of authors and referees deteriorate the system.

Development of a CFD-based model for simulation of UV-LED reactors for water treatment
Creators: name: Keshavarzfathy, Majid
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: The ultraviolet light emitting diode (UV-LED) has recently emerged as a new UV source. It offers design flexibility due to its small size and ability to alter its radiation profile. In view of the variety of design possibilities for a UV-LED reactor, a computational model could be of great value for simulating the reactor and providing insight into its performance. Given the UV-LED’s ability to emit various radiation wavelengths and because it is a directional UV source, the challenges of simulation for UV-LEDs are greater than those for UV lamps, which typically have a single wavelength and an almost radial radiation profile. This study proposes a method of simulating UV-LED reactors for water treatment in the Eulerian framework through the integration of the kinetic, hydrodynamic, and radiation models, representing UV-LED systems. Additionally, the concept of an ideal UV-LED system is proposed, which can provide insight into the efficiency of any UV-LED reactor design concept. In this study, UV-LED is modeled as a polychromatic point source with a specific radiation profile. The radiant energy field of a UV-LED reactor is developed by considering the absorption of media, refraction and reflection at air-quartz-water interfaces, and the reflection from the internal wall surfaces. The developed radiation model was applied to different UV-LEDs, and the numerical predictions were successfully evaluated using actinometry and radiometry. The radiation model was employed to obtain the kinetic rate constants of the challenge microorganisms (e.g., Escherichia coli and MS2) suspended in water, and biodosimetry results showed that modifying microorganisms’ 254 nm fluence-response data based on the germicidal efficiency of UV-LED could yield acceptable kinetics information. Therefore, during the development of the integrated model, the germicidal factors of UV-LEDs were used to homogenize the germicidal radiant power outputs of UV-LEDs. The integrated model of reactor performance was evaluated through experimental studies of the challenge organisms in two UV-LED reactors under different operating conditions, including flow rates, flow regimes, radiant powers, and UV-LED configurations. The integrated model could predict the overall reactor performance and provide information that enabled to improve the efficiency 10 times.

description: We have studied the stability of low degree $g$-modes in uniformly rotating B-type stars, taking into account the effects of the Coriolis force and the rotational deformation. From an analysis treating rotation frequency as a small parameter it is found that slow rotation tends to $destabilize$ high radial-order $retrograde$ $g$-modes, although the effect is very small or absent for relatively low order modes. Calculating eigenfrequencies at selected rotation rates, we find, on the other hand, that rapid rotation tends to $stabilize$ $retrograde$ $g$-modes. The stabilizing effect appears stronger for less massive B-type stars having low effective temperatures. If we change rotation rate continuously, the frequency of a $g$-mode belonging to ($l', m$) crosses frequencies of other $g$-modes belonging to ($l', m$). If the parity of the two encountering modes are the same, they interact each other and the stability (i.e., imaginary part of eigenfrequency) of each mode is modified. Using an asymptotic method we discuss the property of such mode crossings and couplings. For rapidly rotating stars mode couplings are important for the stability of low degree $g$-modes. In particular, we find that the stabilization of retrograde $g$-modes in rapidly rotating stars is due to many strong mode couplings, while %prograde sectoral% modes are exceptionally immune to the damping effects from the mode couplings.

description: Timing analysis of the INTEGRAL-IBIS and Swift-BAT light curves of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient (SFXT) IGR J16465-4507 has identified a period of 30.32+/-0.02 days which we interpret as the orbital period of the binary system. In addition 11 outbursts (9 of which are previously unpublished) have been found between MJD 52652 to MJD 54764, all of which occur close to the region of the orbit we regard as periastron. From the reported flux outbursts, we found a dynamical range in the interval ~30-80. Although in this regard IGR J16465-4507 cannot be considered a classical SFXT for which typical dinamical ranges are >100, still our reported values are significantly greater than that of classical persistent variable supergiant HMXBs (<20), supporting the idea that IGRJ16465-4507 is an intermediate SFXT system, much like few other similar cases reported in the literature.

We show that the partition function can be written as an overlap of wavefunctions determined by the boundary conditions. We also comment on the connection of our results with the 4d superconformal index and the 2d q-deformed Yang-Mills theory.

Characterization of metalloenzymes involved in the bacterial catabolism of lignin-derived biaryls
Creators: name: Kuatsjah, Eugene
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Bacteria play a central role in degrading aromatic compounds, including those derived from lignin, a heterogeneous aromatic polymer and a major component of woody biomass. These catabolic pathways and enzymes play a critical role in the global carbon cycle and have biocatalytic potential in the valorization of biomass. Nevertheless, many of these pathways and enzymes remain poorly understood. This thesis describes the characterization of three such catabolic enzymes, LsdA, LigZ and LigY, each of which has a metal cofactor. LsdA from Sphingomonas paucimobilis TMY1009 is an Fe²⁺-dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the cleavage of stilbenoids into aldehydes. In kinetic anal-yses, LsdA only transformed 4-hydroxystilbenes and was inhibited by phenylazophenol. Crystallo-graphic and mutagenesis analyses established that Lys-134 is essential for catalysis, consistent with a role in deprotonating the stilbene’s 4-hydroxyl. LigZ and LigY catalyze successive reactions in 2,2’-dihydroxy-3,3’-dimethoxy-5,5’-dicarboxy-biphenyl (DDVA) catabolism by Sphingobium sp. SYK-6. In this study, highly active preparations of LigZ, an Fe²⁺-dependent extradiol dioxygenase, afforded an accurate description of the enzyme’s substrate specificity and mechanism-based inactivation. 4,11-Dicarboxy-8-hydroxy-9-methoxy-2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenyl-hexa-2,4-dienoate (DCHM-HOPDA) was identified as the meta-cleavage product (MCP) of the LigZ reaction and was shown to undergo a rapid, reversible non-enzymatic transformation under physiological conditions (t½ ~5 min). The enolate form of the MCP is the substrate of LigY, which catalyzed the hydrolysis of DCHM-HOPDA to 5-carboxyvanillate (5CVA) and 4-carboxy-2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoate (CHPD). Phy-logenetic, biochemical and structural analyses identified LigY as a Zn²⁺-dependent amidohydrolase, in contrast to all known MCP hydrolases, which are serine-dependent enzymes. Nevertheless, transient-state kinetic analyses revealed a catalytic intermediate, ESred, with a red-shifted spectrum similar to that observed in serine-dependent MCP hydrolases. Further, 4-methyl HOPDA inhibited LigY and yielded a complex with a spectrum similar to that of ESred. Crystallographic analyses of this complex revealed the MCP binds the Zn²⁺ in a bidentate manner. Together, the data support a mechanism in which the nucleophile is activated in the same substrate-assisted manner as in the serine-dependent enzymes, but that in LigY, the nucleophile is water, such that C-C fission is preceded by a gem-diol intermediate. Overall, this thesis provides important insights into several lignin-degrading enzymes and the superfamilies to which they belong.
Linear analyses for the stability of radial and nonradial oscillations of massive stars
Creators: name: Saio, Hideyuki
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: In order to understand the periodic and semi-periodic variations of luminous O- B- A-type stars, linear nonadiabatic stability analyses for radial and nonradial oscillations have been performed for massive evolutionary models ($8M_\odot - 90M_\odot$). In addition to radial and nonradial oscillations excited by the kappa-mechanism and strange-mode instability, we discuss the importance of low-degree oscillatory convection (nonadiabatic g$^-$) modes. Although their kinetic energy is largely confined to the convection zone generated by the Fe opacity peak near $2\times10^5$K, the amplitude can emerge to the photosphere and should be observable in a certain effective temperature range. They have periods longer than those of the radial strange modes so that they seem to be responsible for some of the long-period microvariations of LBVs (S Dor variables) and $α$ Cyg variables. Moreover, monotonously unstable radial modes are found in some models whose initial masses are greater than or equal to $60M_\odot$ with $Z=0.02$. The monotonous instability probably corresponds to the presence of an optically thick wind. The instability boundary roughly coincides with the Humphreys-Davidson limit.

description: Searches for exoplanets with radial velocity techniques are increasingly sensitive to stellar activity. It is therefore crucial to characterize how this activity influences radial velocity measurements in their study of the detectability of planets in these conditions. In a previous work we simulated the impact of spots and plages on the radial velocity of the Sun. Our objective is to compare this simulation with the observed radial velocity of the Sun for the same period. We use Dopplergrams and magnetograms obtained by MDI/SOHO over one solar cycle to reconstruct the solar integrated radial velocity in the Ni line 6768 Å. We also characterize the relation between the velocity and the local magnetic field to interpret our results. We obtain a stronger redshift in places where the local magnetic field is larger (and as a consequence for larger magnetic structures): hence we find a higher attenuation of the convective blueshift in plages than in the network. Our results are compatible with an attenuation of this blueshift by about 50% when averaged over plages and network. We obtain an integrated radial velocity with an amplitude over the solar cycle of about 8 m/s, with small-scale variations similar to the results of the simulation, once they are scaled to the Ni line. The observed solar integrated radial velocity agrees with the result of the simulation made in our previous work within 30%, which validates this simulation. The observed amplitude confirms that the impact of the convective blueshift attenuation in magnetic regions will be critical to detect Earth-mass planets in the habitable zone around solar-like stars.

description: "The Cowboy's Dirty Laundry" represents three years spent writing, workshopping, and revising literary short stories. Each explores themes common to people in conflict with themselves. They are stories of self-destruction, regret, loneliness, and adaptation.

The title story, "The Cowboy's Dirty Laundry," is a first-person narrative about a man struggling with a woman he loves but mistreats. "The Summer Sue Came Home" and "The Good Light in Charley's Garage" evolved from a workshop assignment to write about regret. Charley and Sue appear in both stories, the first told from Sue's point-of-view when they are young, the second told from Charley's point—of-view as he looks back on his life at an old age. "Switchback," set in mountain country, examines a young man's grief and self-reliance while dealing with his father's death and the possibility of new life.

Each story has undergone comprehensive rewriting and innumerable drafts, the narratives. This process has included a generous, sometimes harrowing, mix of imagination, critical analysis, reading, and learning. The goal, that well-crafted story with heartfelt emotions, grows closer with each.
An Overview of   Monieziasis in goats

Publisher: name: veterinary today
Year: 2024

description: Gastrointestinal helminthiasis, particularly caused by Moniezia spp., poses significant economic and health challenges in goats, especially in regions with high rainfall. This tapeworm primarily affects young ruminants, with infections being most common in the first year of life. Moniezia spp. has a complex life cycle involving oribatid mites as intermediate hosts, with seasonal infection peaks influenced by the mites’ activity. Although light infections may cause minimal health impacts, heavy infestations can lead to severe complications, including intestinal impaction, growth retardation, reduced fertility, and mortality. Diagnosis is typically based on clinical signs, fecal examination for eggs or tapeworm segments, and sedimentation techniques, while serological tests remain less accessible. Treatment protocols include the administration of praziquantel, levamisole, or albendazole, along with supportive care, such as antidiarrheals, antibiotics, and fluid therapy in severe cases. Preventive strategies, though limited, include pasture management and strategic dosing. Addressing Moniezia infections is critical to reducing economic losses and ensuring the health and productivity of affected goat populations.

description: Peut-on encore trouver un intérêt à l’étude des sciences antiques dans nos sociétés portées vers le progrès et la technologie ? Le présent mémoire entend démontrer l’intérêt de la littérature antique pour la formation des étudiants au gymnase, en ECG et en EM. En intégrant cette littérature au programme des oeuvres de la discipline « français », l’enseignant remplit un but pédagogique qui est au moins quadruple, même s’il doit pour cela quelque peu réinterpréter le cadre disciplinaire et admettre de travailler en traduction. La littérature antique construit d’abord dans l’esprit des élèves la continuité entre les périodes littéraires et le caractère fondateur de l’Antiquité. L’oeuvre antique est également un bon prétexte pour donner un aperçu de la construction de la langue française, donner une origine à sa complexité orthographique et la comparer aux autres langues romanes. Cette littérature illustre encore explicitement la notion de mythe, souvent floue, et engage les élèves à envisager la création littéraire autrement qu’une inspiration qui surgirait ex nihilo. Il s’agit enfin de les faire réfléchir à l’importance que revêt l’interprétation que l’on peut faire d’un texte ou d’un mythe, réutilisé dans divers contextes, philosophique, médical ou littéraire. La littérature antique prouve particulièrement bien que la littérature est enracinée dans le monde, qu’elle s’appuie sur le réel même si le contenu demeure fictif, et qu’elle peut servir de modélisation. Plus encore, le choix d’un texte antique donne accès à tous les élèves à une culture réputée comme savante, élitaire. Cet enseignement est donc aussi un moyen de fédérer les élèves en tant que membres d’une culture commune, en les rendant aptes à reconnaître une allusion mythologique, et ce quel que soit leur milieu social d’origine.

description: We have discovered a new rapidly oscillating Ap star among the Kepler Mission target stars, KIC 10195926. This star shows two pulsation modes with periods that are amongst the longest known for roAp stars at 17.1 min and 18.1 min, indicating that the star is near the terminal age main sequence. The principal pulsation mode is an oblique dipole mode that shows a rotationally split frequency septuplet that provides information on the geometry of the mode. The secondary mode also appears to be a dipole mode with a rotationally split triplet, but we are able to show within the improved oblique pulsator model that these two modes cannot have the same axis of pulsation. This is the first time for any pulsating star that evidence has been found for separate pulsation axes for different modes. The two modes are separated in frequency by 55 microHz, which we model as the large separation. The star is an alpha^2 CVn spotted magnetic variable that shows a complex rotational light variation with a period of Prot = 5.68459 d. For the first time for any spotted magnetic star of the upper main sequence, we find clear evidence of light variation with a period of twice the rotation period; i.e. a subharmonic frequency of $ν_{\rm rot}/2$. We propose that this and other subharmonics are the first observed manifestation of torsional modes in an roAp star. From high resolution spectra we determine Teff = 7400 K, log g = 3.6 and v sin i = 21 km/s. We have found a magnetic pulsation model with fundamental parameters close to these values that reproduces the rotational variations of the two obliquely pulsating modes with different pulsation axes. The star shows overabundances of the rare earth elements, but these are not as extreme as most other roAp stars. The spectrum is variable with rotation, indicating surface abundance patches.

description: An effective white-noise Langevin equation is derived that describes long-time phase dynamics of a limit-cycle oscillator subjected to weak stationary colored noise. Effective drift and diffusion coefficients are given in terms of the phase sensitivity of the oscillator and the correlation function of the noise, and are explicitly calculated for oscillators with sinusoidal phase sensitivity functions driven by two typical colored Gaussian processes. The results are verified by numerical simulations using several types of stochastic or chaotic noise. The drift and diffusion coefficients of oscillators driven by chaotic noise exhibit anomalous dependence on the oscillator frequency, reflecting the peculiar power spectrum of the chaotic noise.

Do quasar broad-line velocity widths add any information to virial black hole mass estimates?

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)

description: We examine how much information measured broad-line widths add to virial BH mass estimates for flux limited samples of quasars. We do this by comparing the BH mass estimates to those derived by randomly reassigning the quasar broad-line widths to different objects and re-calculating the BH mass. For 9000 BH masses derived from the H_beta line we find that the distributions of original and randomized BH masses in the M_BH-redshift plane and the M_BH-luminosity plane are formally identical. A 2D KS test does not find a difference at >90% confidence. For the MgII line (32000 quasars) we do find very significant differences between the randomized and original BH masses, but the amplitude of the difference is still small. The difference for the CIV line (14000 quasars) is 2-3sigma and again the amplitude of the difference is small. Subdividing the data into redshift and luminosity bins we find that the median absolute difference in BH mass between the original and randomized data is 0.025, 0.01 and 0.04 dex for H_beta, MgII and CIV respectively. The maximum absolute difference is always <=0.1 dex. We investigate whether our results are sensitive to corrections to MgII virial masses (e.g. Onken & Kollmeier 2008). These corrections do not influence our results. Moreover, the mass residual - Eddington ratio correlation discussed by Onken & Kollmeier is more directly attributable to the slope of the relation between H_beta and MgII line width. Our results imply that the measured quasar broad-line velocity widths provide little extra information, after allowing for the mean velocity width. In this case virial estimates are equivalent to M_BH L^alpha, with L/L_edd L^(1-alpha) (with alpha~0.5). This leaves an unanswered question of why the accretion efficiency changes with luminosity in just the right way to keep the mean broad-line widths fixed as a function of luminosity. (abridged)

description: We extract to high statistical precision an excited spectrum of single-particle isoscalar mesons using lattice QCD, including states of high spin and, for the first time, light exotic JPC isoscalars. The use of a novel quark field construction has enabled us to overcome the long-standing challenge of efficiently including quark-annihilation contributions. Hidden-flavor mixing angles are extracted and while most states are found to be close to ideally flavor mixed, there are examples of large mixing in the pseudoscalar and axial sectors in line with experiment. The exotic JPC isoscalar states appear at a mass scale comparable to the exotic isovector states.
