298, 1006 (2002)] and viral capsids [Ivanovska et al. PNAS 101, 7600 (2004)] by
computing the mechanical response function and thermal fluctuation spectrum of
a viscoelastic spherical shell that is permeable to the surrounding solvent. We
determine analytically the damped dynamics of the shear, bend, and compression
modes of the shell coupled to the solvent both inside and outside the sphere in
the zero Reynolds number limit. We identify fundamental length and time scales
in the system, and compute the thermal correlation function of displacements of
antipodal points on the sphere and the mechanical response to pinching forces
applied at these points. We describe how such a frequency-dependent antipodal
correlation and/or response function, which should be measurable in new
AFM-based microrheology experiments, can probe the viscoelasticity of these
synthetic and biological shells constructed of nanoparticles.

(rapid communication) | Phys.Rev.D76:061303,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.061303 | null | hep-th astro-ph | null | We conjecture that the inflation models with trans-Planckian excursions in
the field space should be in the swampland. We check this conjecture in a few
examples and investigate the constraints on the spectral index for the
slow-roll inflation model in string landscape where the variation of inflaton
during the period of inflation is less than the Planck scale $M_p$. A red
primordial power spectrum with a lower bound on the spectral index is
preferred. Both the tensor-scalar ratio and the running can be ignored.

Rev. D; references corrected | Phys.Rev.D76:125002,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.125002 | null | hep-th | null | In scalar QED we study the Schwinger pair production from an initial ensemble
of charged bosons when an electric field is turned on for a finite period
together with or without a constant magnetic field. The scalar QED Hamiltonian
depends on time through the electric field, which causes the initial ensemble
of bosons to evolve out of equilibrium. Using the Liouville-von Neumann method
for the density operator and quantum states for each momentum mode, we
calculate the Schwinger pair-production rate at finite temperature, which is
the pair-production rate from the vacuum times a thermal factor of the
Bose-Einstein distribution.

shows that the S 3$p$ to Ni 3$d$ charge-transfer energy is $\sim$ -1 eV and the
ground state is dominated by the $d^9L$ configuration ($L$ is a S 3$p$ hole).
Cell perturbation analysis for the NiS$_2$ triangular lattice indicates that
the strong S 3$p$ hole character of the ground state provides the enhanced
superexchange interaction between the third nearest neighbor sites.

been studied using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy in order to clarify the
consequence of the competition between ferromagnetic metal (FM) and
charge-orbital ordered insulator (COOI). Films with $y$ = 0.40 undergo uniform
paramagnetic insulator to FM transition. On the other hand, in films with $y$ =
0.25, the composition near the bicritical point, phase separation of COOI and
FM domains is indicated by the spectral change below 125 K. Interestingly,
between 50 K and 70 K, the visible laser illumination transfers the COOI-like
spectra obtained in cooling process to the FM-like spectra obtained in warming
process. This indicates that the photoinduced IMT is governed by the increase
of the FM volume fraction and is deeply related to the phase separation between
the FM and COOI states.

of disk not confined to the equatorial plane where general relativistic effect
is indispensable. Therefore, we incorporate the essential properties of the
metric at the inner radii through the pseudo-Newtonian potential derived from
the general Kerr spacetime. The potential, reproducing most of the salient
features of the general-relativity, is valid for entire regime of Kerr
parameter. It reproduces the last stable circular orbit exactly as that in the
Kerr geometry. It also reproduces last bound orbit and energy at last stable
circular orbit with a maximum error ~7% and ~15% respectively upto an orbital
inclination 30 degree.

Largest Planar Subgraph in Random Bipartite Graphs | 19 pages, 8 figures | null | null | null | math.CO math.PR | null | We address the following question: When a randomly chosen regular bipartite
multi--graph is drawn in the plane in the ``standard way'', what is the
distribution of its maximum size planar matching (set of non--crossing disjoint
edges) and maximum size planar subgraph (set of non--crossing edges which may
share endpoints)? The problem is a generalization of the Longest Increasing
Sequence (LIS) problem (also called Ulam's problem). We present combinatorial
identities which relate the number of r-regular bipartite multi--graphs with
maximum planar matching (maximum planar subgraph) of at most d edges to a
signed sum of restricted lattice walks in Z^d, and to the number of pairs of
standard Young tableaux of the same shape and with a ``descend--type''
property. Our results are obtained via generalizations of two combinatorial
proofs through which Gessel's identity can be obtained (an identity that is
crucial in the derivation of a bivariate generating function associated to the
distribution of LISs, and key to the analytic attack on Ulam's problem).
We also initiate the study of pattern avoidance in bipartite multigraphs and
derive a generalized Gessel identity for the number of bipartite 2-regular
multigraphs avoiding a specific (monotone) pattern.

constructing significance tests, false alarm probability functions, and the
role played in these by independent random variables and by empirical and
theoretical cumulative distribution functions. We also discuss the concept of
"independent frequencies" in periodogram analysis. We propose a practical
method for estimating the significance of periodogram peaks, applicable to all
time series irrespective of the spacing of the data. This method, based on
Monte Carlo simulations, produces significance tests that are tailor-made for
any given astronomical time series.

device, with sufficient flexibility to prepare entanglement for all major
quantum computation and communication applications in a completely
deterministic fashion without number-discriminated photon detection. We present
two alternative constructions for the module, one using free-space components
and one in a photonic bandgap structures. The natural operation of the module
is to generate states within the stabilizer formalism and we present an
analysis on the cavity-QED requirements to experimentally realize this device.

presented. From radial velocities of 296 cluster members, we find a mean
velocity of 4871 +/- 54 km/s and a velocity dispersion of 925 km/s. The mean
velocity of the E/S0 population (4979 +/- 85 km/s) is offset with respect to
that of the S/Irr population (4812 +/- 70 km/s) by `Delta' v = 164 km/s in the
cluster rest frame. This offset increases towards the core of the cluster. The
E/S0 population is free of any detectable substructure and appears relaxed. Its
shape is clearly elongated with a position angle that is aligned along the
dominant large-scale structures in this region, the so-called Norma wall. The
central cD galaxy has a very large peculiar velocity of 561 km/s which is most
probably related to an ongoing merger at the core of the cluster. The
spiral/irregular galaxies reveal a large amount of substructure; two
dynamically distinct subgroups within the overall spiral-population have been
identified, located along the Norma wall elongation. The dynamical mass of the
Norma cluster within its Abell radius is 1 - 1.1 x 10^15 h^-1_73 M_Sun. One of
the cluster members, the spiral galaxy WKK 6176 which recently was observed to
have a 70 kpc X-ray tail, reveals numerous striking low-brightness filaments
pointing away from the cluster centre suggesting strong interaction with the
intracluster medium.

problem. Recently, it has been shown that the resolution of methods based on
optimizing a modularity measure or a corresponding energy is limited;
communities with sizes below some threshold remain unresolved. One possibility
to go around this problem is to vary the threshold by using a tuning parameter,
and investigate the community structure at variable resolutions. Here, we
analyze the resolution limit and multiresolution behavior for two different
methods: a q-state Potts method proposed by Reichard and Bornholdt, and a
recent multiresolution method by Arenas, Fernandez, and Gomez. These methods
are studied analytically, and applied to three test networks using simulated

sample collected with the Belle detector. The analysis is based on 53110
lepton-tagged signal events. The measured branching fraction B(tau- -> K_S pi-
nu_tau)=(0.404 +- 0.002(stat.) +- 0.013(syst.))% is consistent with the world
average value and has better accuracy. An analysis of the K_S pi- invariant
mass spectrum reveals contributions from the K*(892)- as well as other states.
For the first time the K*(892)- mass and width have been measured in tau decay:
M(K*(892)-)=(895.47 +- 0.20(stat.) +- 0.44(syst.) +- 0.59(mod.)) MeV/c2,
Gamma(K*(892)-)=(46.2 +- 0.6(stat.) +- 1.0(syst.) +- 0.7(mod.)) MeV. The
K*(892)- mass is significantly different from the current world average value.

A | null | 10.1103/PhysRevA.76.013828 | null | physics.optics | null | In this article, localized linear defect modes due to bandgap guidance in
two-dimensional photonic lattices with localized or non-localized defects are
investigated theoretically. First, when the defect is localized and weak,
eigenvalues of defect modes bifurcated from edges of Bloch bands are derived
analytically. It is shown that in an attractive (repulsive) defect, defect
modes bifurcate out from Bloch-band edges with normal (anomalous) diffraction
coefficients. Furthermore, distances between defect-mode eigenvalues and
Bloch-band edges are exponentially small functions of the defect strength,
which is very different from the one-dimensional case where such distances are
quadratically small with the defect strength. It is also found that some
defect-mode branches bifurcate not from Bloch-band edges, but from quasi-edge
points within Bloch bands, which is very unusual. Second, when the defect is
localized but strong, defect modes are determined numerically. It is shown that
both the repulsive and attractive defects can support various types of defect
modes such as fundamental, dipole, quadrupole, and vortex modes. These modes
reside in various bandgaps of the photonic lattice. As the defect strength
increases, defect modes move from lower bandgaps to higher ones when the defect
is repulsive, but remain within each bandgap when the defect is attractive,
similar to the one-dimensional case. The same phenomena are observed when the
defect is held fixed while the applied dc field (which controls the lattice
potential) increases. Lastly, if the defect is non-localized (i.e. it persists
at large distances in the lattice), it is shown that defect modes can be
embedded inside the continuous spectrum, and they can bifurcate out from edges
of the continuous spectrum algebraically rather than exponentially.

degrees of the Pleiades conducted as part of the UKIDSS Deep Infrared Sky
Survey (UKIDSS) Galactic Cluster Survey (GCS). We have extracted over 340 high
probability proper motion members down to 0.03 solar masses using a combination
of UKIDSS photometry and proper motion measurements obtained by
cross-correlating the GCS with data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS),
the Isaac Newton (INT) and the Canada-France-Hawai'i (CFHT) telescopes.
Additionally, we have unearthed 73 new candidate brown dwarf members on the
basis of five band UKIDSS photometry alone. We have identified 23 substellar
multiple system candidates out of 63 candidate brown dwarfs from the (Y-K,Y)
and (J-K,J) colour-magnitude diagrams, yielding a binary frequency of 28-44% in
the 0.075-0.030 Msun mass range. Our estimate is three times larger than the
binary fractions reported from high-resolution imaging surveys of field
ultracool dwarfs and Pleiades brown dwarfs. However, it is marginally
consistent with our earlier ``peculiar'' photometric binary fraction of
50+/-10% presented in Pinfield et al. (2003), in good agreement with the 32-45%
binary fraction derived from the recent Monte-Carlo simulations of Maxted &
Jeffries (2005) and compatible with the 26+/-10% frequency recently estimated
by Basri & Reiners (2006). A tentative estimate of the mass ratios from
photometry alone seems to support the hypothesis that binary brown dwarfs tend
to reside in near equal-mass ratio systems. (abridged)

semiclassical context, which, once applied to four-wave mixing in quantum

PRL95}. We end up with dynamical equations for exciton and photon operators
which extend the usual semiclassical description of Coulomb interaction
effects, in terms of a mean-field term plus a genuine non-instantaneous
four-particle correlation, to quantum optical effects.

stages in order to evaluate the ionization equilibrium (of a particular

stars with effective temperatures as high as 100000 K have their flux maximum
in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wavelength range and due to the high degree of
ionization, most of the metal lines are found in the ultraviolet (UV) range.
Thus, high-S/N and high-resolution UV spectra are a pre-requisite for a precise
analysis. Consequently, we employed the Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS), the
Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph (GHRS), and the Space Telescope Imaging

suitable data. We present state-of-the-art analyses of the hottest (pre-) white

enabled us to study the deeply overdoped region. p was changed by changing the
oxygen deficiency (delta). A strongly p-dependent rate of suppression of Tc

with increasing Zn and superconductivity is at its strongest when p = 0.185 +/-

content where the pseudogap vanishes quite abruptly. We have discussed the
possible relevance to these ideas with our findings.

moderately damped Josephson junctions. Different types of both low- and high-
$T_c$ junctions with controlled damping are studied. The damping parameter of
the junctions is tuned in a wide range by changing temperature, magnetic field,
gate voltage, introducing a ferromagnetic layer or in-situ capacitive shunting.
A paradoxical collapse of switching current fluctuations occurs with increasing
$T$ in all studied junctions. The phenomenon critically depends on dissipation
in the junction and is explained by interplay of two counteracting consequences
of thermal fluctuations, which on the one hand assist in premature switching
into the resistive state and on the other hand help in retrapping back to the
superconducting state. This is one of the rare examples of anticorrelation
between temperature and fluctuation amplitude of a physically measurable
quantity.

operator that computes this function coherently, i.e. it maintains
superpositions. This operator acts on a bipartite system, where the subsystems
are the input and output registers. In distributed quantum computation, these
subsystems may be spatially separated, in which case we will be interested in
its classical and entangling capacities. For an arbitrary function f, we show
that the unidirectional classical and entangling capacities of this operator
are log_{2}(n_{f}) bits/ebits, where n_{f} is the number of different values
this function can take. An optimal procedure for bidirectional classical
communication with a standard oracle operator corresponding to a permutation on
Z_{M} is given. The bidirectional classical capacity of such an operator is
found to be 2log_{2}(M) bits. The proofs of these capacities are facilitated by
an optimal distributed protocol for the implementation of an arbitrary standard
oracle operator.

produced in the well-known technique of dimension shifting in calculating
derived functors in homological algebra. We explicitly determine these signs.
Getting these signs right is important in order to avoid basic contradictions.
We illustrate the lemma by some de Rham cohomology and Chern class

also describe a method to measure the number statistics in one cavity for each
polariton species independently.

Matrix theory. At the heart of this review is a new analysis of the conceptual
problem of time and the closely related and phenomenologically relevant problem
of vacuum energy in quantum gravity. We also present a discussion of some
observational implications of this new viewpoint on the problem of vacuum
energy.

background made of D4-branes compactified on a circle with supersymmetry broken

effectively four-dimensional and has proved surprisingly successful in
recovering qualitative and quantitative properties of QCD. We investigate
fluctuations of the fermionic fields on the probe D8-brane and interpret these
as mesinos (fermionic superpartners of mesons). We demonstrate that the masses
of these modes are comparable to meson masses and show that their interactions
with ordinary mesons are not suppressed.

of deposition of small Na clusters on Ar(001) surface. We work out basic
mechanisms by systematic variation of substrate activity, impact energy,
cluster orientations, cluster sizes, and charges. The soft Ar material is found
to serve as an extremely efficient shock absorber which provides cluster
capture in a broad range of impact energies. Reflection is only observed in
combination with destruction of the substrate. The kinetic energy of the
impinging cluster is rapidly transfered at first impact. The distribution of
the collision energy over the substrate proceeds very fast with velocity of
sound. The full thermalization of ionic and atomic energies goes at a much
slower pace with times of several ps. Charged clusters are found to have a much
stronger interface interaction and thus get in significantly closer contact
with the surface.

sheet of the pulsar magnetosphere is related to how fast poloidal magnetic
field lines close as we move away from the light cylinder. This determines the
reconnection radial electric field which directly accelerates particles in the

magnetic field closure near the light cylinder may be measurable through the
pulsar braking index. We argue that, the lower the efficiency of pair
formation, the higher the braking index. We also argue that synchrotron
radiation reaction in the neutral layer does not inhibit the accelerated
particles from reaching the maximum energy of about 10^16 eV available in the
open pulsar magnetosphere.

the optical spectrum of LS V +4621 by means of state-of-the-art NLTE
model-atmosphere techniques in order to compare its photospheric properties to
theoretical predictions from stellar evolution theory as well as from diffusion
calculations.
From the N IV - NV, O IV - O VI, Si IV - Si V, and Fe V - Fe VII ionization
equilibria, we determined an effective temperature of 95 +/- 2 kK with high
precision. The surface gravity is log g = 6.9 +/- 0.2. An unexplained
discrepancy appears between the spectroscopic distance d = 224 +46/-58 pc and
the parallax distance d = 129 +6/-5 pc of LS V +4621. For the first time, we
have identified Mg IV and Ar VI absorption lines in the spectrum of a
hydrogen-rich central star and determined the Mg and Ar abundances as well as
the individual abundances of iron-group elements (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni). With
the realistic treatment of metal opacities up to the iron group in the
model-atmosphere calculations, the so-called Balmer-line problem (found in
models that neglect metal-line blanketing) vanishes.
Spectral analysis by means of NLTE model atmospheres has presently arrived at
a high level of sophistication, which is now hampered largely by the lack of
reliable atomic data and accurate line-broadening tables. Strong efforts should
be made to improve upon this situation.

films: superelastic materials for tribological applications | Review article in "Fullerene Research Trends" to be published by Nova
Science Publishers Inc., New York. 46 pages | null | null | null | cond-mat.mtrl-sci | null | In this chapter we review our findings on the bonding structure and growth
mechanisms of carbon-based thin solid films with fullerene-like (FL)
microstructure. The so-called FL arrangements arise from the curvature and
cross-linking of basal planes in graphitic-like structures, partially
resembling that of molecular fullerenes. This three-dimensional superstructure
takes advantage of the strength of planar pi bonds in sp2 hybrids and confers
the material interesting mechanical properties, such as high hardness, high
elastic recovery, low-friction and wear-resistance. These properties can be
tailored by controlling the curvature, size and connectivity of the FL
arrangements, making these materials promising coatings for tribological
applications. We have focused our interest mostly on carbon nitride (CNx) since
nitrogen promotes the formation of FL arrangements at low substrate
temperatures and they are emerging over pure carbon coatings in tribological
applications such as protective overcoats in magnetic hard disks. We address
structural issues such as origin of plane curvature, nature of the
cross-linking sites and sp2 clustering, together with growth mechanisms based
on the role of film-forming precursors, chemical re-sputtering or concurrent
ion assistance during growth.

For one-dimensional systems the Luttinger liquid approach provides insight into
universal properties. Much is known of the equilibrium state, both in the
weakly and strongly interacting regime. However, it remains a challenge to
probe the dynamics by which this equilibrium state is reached. Here we present
a direct experimental study of the coherence dynamics in both isolated and
coupled degenerate 1d Bose gases. Dynamic splitting is used to create two 1d
systems in a phase coherent state. The time evolution of the coherence is
revealed in local phase shifts of the subsequently observed interference
patterns. Completely isolated 1d Bose gases are observed to exhibit a universal
sub-exponential coherence decay in excellent agreement with recent predictions
by Burkov et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 200404 (2007)]. For two coupled 1d Bose
gases the coherence factor is observed to approach a non-zero equilibrium value
as predicted by a Bogoliubov approach. This coupled-system decay to finite
coherence is the matter wave equivalent of phase locking two lasers by
injection. The non-equilibrium dynamics of superfluids plays an important role
in a wide range of physical systems, such as superconductors, quantum-Hall
systems, superfluid Helium, and spin systems. Our experiments studying
coherence dynamics show that 1d Bose gases are ideally suited for investigating
this class of phenomena.

Owing to the phase-charge duality, our results can be directly extended to the
opposite overdamped limit.

be completed by a zigzag; that is, by a linear chain of smooth rational curves.
In this paper we deal with the question of uniqueness of $\bf C^*$-actions and
$\bf A^1$-fibrations on such a surface $V$ up to automorphisms. The latter
fibrations are in one to one correspondence with $\bf C_+$-actions on $V$
considered up to a "speed change".
Non-Gizatullin surfaces are known to admit at most one $\bf A^1$-fibration
$V\to S$ up to an isomorphism of the base $S$. Moreover an effective $\bf
C^{*}$-action on them, if it does exist, is unique up to conjugation and
inversion $t\mapsto t^{-1}$ of $\bf C^*$. Obviously uniqueness of $\bf
C^*$-actions fails for affine toric surfaces; however we show in this case that
there are at most two conjugacy classes of $\bf A^1$-fibrations. There is a
further interesting family of non-toric Gizatullin surfaces, called the
Danilov-Gizatullin surfaces, where there are in general several conjugacy
classes of $\bf C^*$-actions and $\bf A^1$-fibrations.
In the present paper we obtain a criterion as to when $\bf A^1$-fibrations of
Gizatullin surfaces are conjugate up to an automorphism of $V$ and the base
$S$. We exhibit as well a large subclasses of Gizatullin $\bf C^{*}$-surfaces
for which a $\bf C^*$-action is essentially unique and for which there are at
most two conjugacy classes of $\bf A^1$-fibrations over $\bf A^1$.

the regime where atomic steps are transparent. For this purpose we study
several vicinal orientations by means of in-situ (optical diffraction,
electronic microscopy) as well as ex-situ (AFM, microprofilometry)
visualization techniques. The data show that faceting proceeds in two stages.
The first stage is short and leads to the appearance of a step density wave,
with a wavelength roughly independent of the surface orientation. The second
stage is much slower, and leads to the formation of a hill-and-valley
structure, the period of which depends on the initial surface orientation. A
simple continuum model enables us to point out why the wavelength of the step
density wave does not depend on the microscale details of the surface. The
final wavelength is controlled by the competition between elastic step-step
interaction and facet edge energy cost. Finally, the surface stress angular
dependence is shown to emerge as a coarsed-grained picture from the step model.

It is our believe that all Gelfand Shilov spaces, especially those with
quasianalytic test function spaces, are good domains for the quantum field
theory. The theory requires technical results from the theory of generalized
functions and not merely differential calculus and well defined Fourier
transform, but also the kernel theorem and the structural theorem. In the paper
we give the structural (regularity) theorem and kernel theorem for
Gelfand-Shilov spaces, of Roumieu and Beurling type.

both formal treatments and applications of topological objects. The typical
phenomena like BPS bounds, topology, the semiclassical approximation and chiral
fermions are introduced by virtue of kinks. Then I proceed in higher dimensions
with magnetic monopoles and instantons and special emphasis on calorons.
Analytical aspects are discussed and an overview over models based on these

the basis for solid-state qubits. To date, most experiments have used III-V
materials, in which coherence is limited by hyperfine interactions. Ge/Si
heterostructure nanowires seem ideally suited to overcome this limitation: the
predominance of spin-zero nuclei suppresses the hyperfine interaction and
chemical synthesis creates a clean and defect-free system with highly
controllable properties. Here we present a top gate-defined double quantum dot
based on Ge/Si heterostructure nanowires with fully tunable coupling between
the dots and to the leads. We also demonstrate a novel approach to charge
sensing in a one-dimensional nanostructure by capacitively coupling the double
dot to a single dot on an adjacent nanowire. The double quantum dot and
integrated charge sensor serve as an essential building block required to form
a solid-state spin qubit free of nuclear spin.

finite evidence | 9 pages REVTeX, twocolumn, no figures; critical feedback very welcome | null | null | null | quant-ph math.ST stat.TH | null | In the modern Bayesian view classical probability theory is simply an
extension of conventional logic, i.e., a quantitative tool that allows for
consistent reasoning in the presence of uncertainty. Classical theory
presupposes, however, that--at least in principle--the amount of evidence that
an experimenter can accumulate always matches the size of the hypothesis space.
I investigate how the framework for consistent reasoning must be modified in
non-classical situations where hypotheses form a continuum, yet the maximum
evidence accessible through experiment is not allowed to exceed some finite
upper bound. Invoking basic consistency requirements pertaining to the
preparation and composition of systems, as well as to the continuity of
probabilities, I show that the modified theory must have an internal symmetry
isomorphic to the unitary group. It thus appears that the only consistent
algorithm for plausible reasoning about a continuum of hypotheses on the basis
of finite evidence is furnished by quantum theory in complex Hilbert space.

One of its most striking features is the large asymmetry in H$\alpha$ emission.
In this letter, we will take a quantitative look at this asymmetry at different
wavelengths for the first time. We suggest that NGC 891 is intrinsically almost
symmetric and the large asymmetry in H$\alpha$ emission is mostly due to dust
attenuation. We will quantify the additional optical depth needed to cause the
observed asymmetry in this model. By comparing large strips on the North East
side of the galaxy with strips covering the same area in the South West we can
quantify and analyze the asymmetry in the different wavelengths. From the 24
$\mu$m emission we find that the intrinsic asymmetry in star formation in NGC
891 is small i.e., $\sim 30%$. The additional asymmetry in H$\alpha$ is modeled
as additional symmetric dust attenuation which extends up to $\sim$ 40\arcsec
(1.9 kpc) above the plane of the galaxy with a mid-plane value of $\tau$=0.8
and a scale height of 0.5 kpc

Additionally, we compare the optical and spectral properties of two laser
systems based on common laser diodes, differing in their coating, as well as
one, based on a distributed-feedback (DFB) diode. The linear cavity setup in
all these systems combines a robust and compact design with a high wavelength
tunability and an improved stability of the optical feedback compared to diode

and a likely cataclysmic binary progenitor. We present 10 days of nearly
continuous optical photometry by the MOST (Microvariability & Oscillations of
STars) satellite and partly simultaneous optical spectroscopy from DDO (David
Dunlap Observatory) of the binary. The photometric data indicate that the spot
coverage of the K dwarf component was less than observed in the past,
suggesting that we monitored the star close to a minimum in its activity cycle.
Despite the low spot activity, we still detected seven flare-like events whose
estimated energies are among the highest ever observed in V471 Tau and whose
times of occurrence do not correlate with the binary orbital phase. A detailed
O-C analysis of the times of eclipse over the last ~35 years reveals timing
variations which could be explained in several ways, including perturbations by
an as-yet-undetected third body in the system or by a small orbital
eccentricity inducing slow apsidal motion. The DDO spectra result in improved
determinations of the K dwarf projected rotation velocity, V_K sin i = 92 km
s^-1, and the orbital amplitude, K_K=150.5 km s^-1. The spectra also allow us
to measure changes in H_alpha emission strength and radial velocity (RV)
variations. We measure a larger H_alpha velocity amplitude than found
previously suggesting that the source of the emission in V471 Tau was less
concentrated around the sub-white-dwarf point on the K star than had been
observed in previous studies.

propose and discuss possible ways to design low-loss CROW bends and to reduce
bend losses. These include selecting specific bend angles depending on the
azimuthal order of the WG mode and tuning the radius of the microdisk
positioned at the CROW bend.

undulator setup with arbitrary undulator parameter, taking into account a
finite transverse size of the electron bunch. Earlier studies considered a line
density-distribution of electrons instead. We focus our attention on the
long-wavelength asymptote (compared with resonance wavelength), at large
distance of the electron bunch from the undulator entrance compared to the
overtaking length, and for large vacuum-chamber size compared to the typical
transverse size of the field. These restrictions define a parameter region of
interest for practical applications. We calculate a closed expression for
impedance and wake function that may be evaluated numerically in the most
general case. Such expression allows us to derive an analytical solution for a
Gaussian transverse and longitudinal bunch shape. Finally, we study the
feasibility of current-enhanced SASE schemes (ESASE) recently proposed for
LCLS, that fall well-within our approximations. Numerical estimations presented
in this paper indicate that impedance-induced energy spread is sufficient to
seriously degrade the FEL performance. Our conclusion is in contrast with
results in literature, where wake calculations for the LCLS case are given in
free-space, as if the presence of the undulator were negligible.

core-collapse supernova explosions via observation of their neutrino emissions.
The expected number of events comprising such a burst is ~10^4 and the average
energy of the neutrinos is in few tens of MeV range in the case of a
core-collapse supernova explosion at the typical distance in our galaxy (10
kiloparsecs); this large signal means that the detection efficiency anywhere
within our galaxy and well past the Magellanic Clouds is 100%. We examined a
data set which was taken from May, 1996 to July, 2001 and from December, 2002
to October, 2005 corresponding to 2589.2 live days. However, there is no
evidence of such a supernova explosion during the data-taking period. The 90%
C.L. upper limit on the rate of core-collapse supernova explosions out to
distances of 100 kiloparsecs is found to be 0.32 SN/year.

solved analytically and one has to rely on numerical methods to solve sets of
coupled partial differential equations. Among the possible choices, this paper
focuses on a class called spectral methods where, typically, the various
functions are expanded onto sets of orthogonal polynomials or functions. A
theoretical introduction on spectral expansion is first given and a particular
emphasis is put on the fast convergence of the spectral approximation. We
present then different approaches to solve partial differential equations,
first limiting ourselves to the one-dimensional case, with one or several
domains. Generalization to more dimensions is then discussed. In particular,
the case of time evolutions is carefully studied and the stability of such
evolutions investigated. One then turns to results obtained by various groups
in the field of General Relativity by means of spectral methods. First, works
which do not involve explicit time-evolutions are discussed, going from rapidly
rotating strange stars to the computation of binary black holes initial data.
Finally, the evolutions of various systems of astrophysical interest are
presented, from supernovae core collapse to binary black hole mergers.

spin measurements | 13 pages Latex, one eps figure | null | null | null | quant-ph | null | In a recent paper [A. Ahanj et al., quant-ph/0603053], we gave a classical
protocol to simulate quantum correlations corresponding to the spin $s$ singlet
state for the infinite sequence of spins satisfying $2s+1 = 2^{n}$. In the
present paper, we have generalized this result by giving a classical protocol
to exactly simulate quantum correlations implied by the spin-$s$ singlet state
corresponding to all integer as well as half-integer spin values $s$. The class
of measurements we consider here are only those corresponding to spin
observables, as has been done in the above-mentioned paper. The required amount
of communication is found to be $\lceil {\rm log}_{2} (s + 1) \rceil$ in the
worst case scenario, where $\lceil x \rceil$ is the least integer greater than
or equal to $x$.

binary systems in a sample of thirteen low-density Galactic globular clusters.
By analysing the color distribution of Main Sequence stars we derived the
minimum fraction of binary systems required to reproduce the observed
color-magnitude diagram morphologies. We found that all the analysed globular
clusters contain a minimum binary fraction larger than 6% within the core
radius. The estimated global fractions of binary systems range from 10% to 50%
depending on the cluster. A dependence of the relative fraction of binary
systems on the cluster age has been detected, suggesting that the binary
disruption process within the cluster core is active and can significantly
reduce the binary content in time.

in the low-saturation limit with respect to the pumping field a qualitative
interpretation of the cooling mechanisms can be made by the consideration of
effective two-level system of the ground-state sublevels. It is clarified that
in the limit of weak Raman transitions the cooling mechanism is similar to the
Doppler mechanism, which is known in the theory of two-level atom. In the limit
of strong Raman transitions the cooling mechanism is similar to the known
Sisyphus mechanism. In the slow atom approximation the analytical expressions
for the coefficients of friction, spontaneous and induced diffusion are given,
and the kinetic temperature is estimated.

performed at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) during operation with
100 GeV/nucleon 63Cu29+ ions. At RHIC, the rate, energy and magnetic field are
low enough so that magnet quenching is not an issue. The hadronic showers

using an array of photodiodes. The measurement confirms the order of magnitude
of the theoretical cross section previously calculated by others.

uncover two fractal signatures of chaotic advection of aerosols under the
action of gravity. Each one enables the computation of the fractal dimension
$D_{0}$ of the strange attractor governing the advection dynamics from data
obtained solely at a given level. We illustrate our theoretical findings with a
numerical experiment and discuss their possible relevance to meteorology.

non-zero density of eigenvalues of the massless Dirac operator near the origin.
Numerical studies of two-flavour QCD now suggest that the low quark modes are
locally coherent to a certain extent. As a consequence, the modes can be
simultaneously deflated, using local projectors, with a total computational
effort proportional to the lattice volume (rather than its square). Deflation
has potentially many uses in lattice QCD. The technique is here worked out for
the case of quark propagator calculations, where large speed-up factors and a
flat scaling behaviour with respect to the quark mass are achieved.

HI emission, we have obtained high precision HI line flux densities with the
100m Green Bank Telescope for a sample of 100 isolated spiral and irregular
galaxies which we have previously observed with the 43m telescope. A comparison
of the observed HI line fluxes obtained with the two different telescopes,
characterized by half-power beam widths of 9 arcmin and 21 arcmin respectively,
exploits a ``beam matching'' technique to yield a statistical determination of
the occurrence of diffuse HI components in their disks. A simple model of the
HI distribution within a galaxy well describes ~75 % of the sample and accounts
for all of the HI line flux density. The remaining galaxies are approximately
evenly divided into two categories: ones which appear to possess a
significantly more extensive HI distribution than the model predicts, and ones
for which the HI distribution is more centrally concentrated than predicted.
Examples of both extremes can be found in the literature but little attention
has been paid to the centrally concentrated HI systems. Our sample has
demonstrated that galaxies do not commonly possess extended regions of low
surface brightness HI gas which is not accounted for by our current
understanding of the structure of HI disks. Eight HI-rich companions to the
target objects are identified, and a set of extragalactic HI line flux density
calibrators is presented.

forming region, is a rare wide-separation brown dwarf binary. XMM-Newton and
Chandra observations of 2M1101AB have allowed us to examine the influence of
physical parameters (mass, bolometric luminosity and effective temperature) on
X-ray emission from a coeval pair of substellar objects. The spatial resolution
of XMM-Newton is not sufficient to separate contributions from the two
components in the binary. The X-ray source detected with XMM-Newton has a
column density compatible with the infrared extinction of component A. On the
other hand, the binary is resolved with Chandra, and the bulk of the X-ray
emission is clearly associated with the photospherically cooler component B.
These apparently contradictory results point at strong variability of 2M1101's
X-ray emission. Combined with previous sensitive X-ray observations from
low-mass members of ChaI, we find a decline of X-ray luminosity with decreasing
(sub)stellar mass that is typical for star forming regions. 2M1101B is the
coolest (spectral type M8.25) and least massive brown dwarf of ChaI detected in
X-rays so far. It is also among the youngest (~1 Myr) substellar ChaI members,
and therefore relatively luminous. Most bona fide brown dwarfs of Cha I have
remained below the sensitivity limits of available X-ray observations, because
of their low luminosity associated with higher age.

easily available, measurements of the whole polar dependence of the surface
stress of a crystal do not exist. In this paper is presented a new procedure
that allows, for the first time, the experimental determination of the surface
stress polar dependence of a crystal. For this purpose (1) electromigration is
used to control the kinetic faceting of surface orientations that belong to the
equilibrium shape of the crystal and (2) for each destabilised surface, the
period of faceting as well as the crystallographic angles of the appearing
facets are measured by AFM. The so-obtained data lead to a set of equations
whose mathematical solution, compatible with physical constraints, gives access
to the surface stress polar dependence of the whole crystal and thus to a
better understanding of surface stress properties.

scalars in a uniform background of charged fermions. We focus on the case when
the scalar condensate screens the background charge, while the net charge of
the system resides on its boundary surface. A distinctive signature of this
substance is that the photon acquires a Lorentz-violating mass in the bulk of
the condensate. Due to this mass, the transverse and longitudinal gauge modes
propagate with different group velocities. We give qualitative arguments that
at high enough densities and low temperatures a charged system of electrons and
helium-4 nuclei, if held together by laboratory devices or by force of gravity,
can form such a substance. We briefly discuss possible manifestations of the
charged condensate in compact astrophysical objects.

We propose a simple method based on two independent measurements on 3D and 2D
equilibrium shapes completed by the analysis of the thermal fluctuation of an
isolated step. Using then basic equations (Wulff' theorem, Gibbs-Thomson
equation, thermodynamics fluctuation of an isolated step) allows us to extract
the absolute surface free energy of a singular face. The so-proposed method can
be applied when (i) all orientations exists on the equilibrium shape, (ii) the
surface stress is isotropic. This procedure is applied to the case of Si(111)
where we find a value between 0.59 Jm-2 and 0.83 Jm-2 at 1373 K.

a proximity effect where the superconducting correlations leak into the normal
metal. An additional contact close to the first one makes it possible to carry
a supercurrent through the metal. Forcing this supercurrent flow along with an
additional quasiparticle current from one or many normal-metal reservoirs makes
rise to many interesting effects. The supercurrent can be used to tune the
local energy distribution function of the electrons. This mechanism also leads
to finite thermoelectric effects even in the presence of electron-hole
symmetry. Here we review these effects and discuss to which extent the existing
observations of thermoelectric effects in metallic samples can be explained
through the use of the dirty-limit quasiclassical theory.

0706.2307 | Eugenia Cheng | Eugenia Cheng and Nick Gurski | The periodic table of $n$-categories for low dimensions II: degenerate
tricategories | 51 pages | null | null | null | math.CT | null | We continue the project begun in ``The periodic table of $n$-categories for
low dimensions I'' by examining degenerate tricategories and comparing them
with the structures predicted by the Periodic table. For triply degenerate
tricategories we exhibit a triequivalence with the partially discrete
tricategory of commutative monoids. For the doubly degenerate case we explain
how to construct a braided monoidal category from a given doubly degenerate
category, but show that this does not induce a straightforward comparison
between \bfseries{BrMonCat} and \bfseries{Tricat}. We show how to alter the
natural structure of \bfseries{Tricat} in two different ways to provide a
comparison, but show that only the more brutal alteration yields an
equivalence. Finally we study degenerate tricategories in order to give the
first fully algebraic definition of monoidal bicategories and the full
tricategory structure \bfseries{MonBicat}.

we study in perfectly controlled thermodynamics conditions spiral shapes and
spirals on Si(111) surface. It is shown that the new method named low
distortion reflection electron microscopy (LODREM) is a powerful instrument,
resolving in much more details (compared with REM) growth or evaporation
spirals at the crystal surface. More precisely, we examine the distance between
two successive steps of a spiral at growth (or evaporation) with respect to the
supersaturation (or undersaturation). It is found that this distance scales
with an exponent close to -1/2. This result, which deviates from the BCF theory
originates from a non local behavior with a slow kinetic of attachment of the
adatoms at the steps.

0706.2309 | Masoud Yari | Hans G. Kaper, Shouhong Wang, and Masoud Yari | Formation and Persistence of Spatiotemporal Turing Patterns | null | null | null | null | nlin.PS | null | This article is concerned with the stability and long-time dynamics of
structures arising from a structureless state. The paradigm is suggested by
developmental biology, where morphogenesis is thought to result from a
competition between chemical reactions and spatial diffusion. A system of two
reaction-diffusion equations for the concentrations of two morphogens is
reduced to a finite system of ordinary differential equations. The stability of
bifurcated solutions of this system is analyzed, and the long-time asymptotic
behavior of the bifurcated solutions is established rigorously. The
Schnakenberg and Gierer-Meinhardt equations are discussed as examples.

MIMO block-fading channels | Submitted to IEEE Trans. on Information Theory, Submission: January
2006 - First review: June 2007 | null | 10.1109/TIT.2008.920240 | null | cs.IT math.IT | null | The space-time bit-interleaved coded modulation (ST-BICM) is an efficient
technique to obtain high diversity and coding gain on a block-fading MIMO
channel. Its maximum-likelihood (ML) performance is computed under ideal
interleaving conditions, which enables a global optimization taking into
account channel coding. Thanks to a diversity upperbound derived from the
Singleton bound, an appropriate choice of the time dimension of the space-time
coding is possible, which maximizes diversity while minimizing complexity.
Based on the analysis, an optimized interleaver and a set of linear precoders,
called dispersive nucleo algebraic (DNA) precoders are proposed. The proposed
precoders have good performance with respect to the state of the art and exist
for any number of transmit antennas and any time dimension. With turbo codes,
they exhibit a frame error rate which does not increase with frame length.

potential of parallel dipoles is computed at zero temperature as a function of
composition and the ratio of their magnetic susceptibilities. Using lattice
sums, a rich variety of different stable crystalline structures is identified
including $A_mB_n$ structures. [$A$ $(B)$ particles correspond to large (small)
dipolar moments.] Their elementary cells consist of triangular, square,
rectangular or rhombic lattices of the $A$ particles with a basis comprising
various structures of $A$ and $B$ particles. For small (dipolar) asymmetry
there are intermediate $AB_2$ and $A_2B$ crystals besides the pure $A$ and $B$
triangular crystals. These structures are detectable in experiments on granular
and colloidal matter.

electron, incoming from a source lead, and another electron bound in the ground
state of a quantum dot, connected to two leads. We analyze the role played by
the different kinds of resonances in the transmission spectra and by the number
of scattering channels, into the amount of quantum correlations between the two
identical carriers. It is shown that the entanglement between their energy
states is not sensitive to the presence of Breit-Wigner resonances, while it
presents a peculiar behavior in correspondence of Fano peaks: two close maxima
separated by a minimum, for a two-channel scattering, a single maximum for a
multi-channel scattering. Such a behavior is ascribed to the different
mechanisms characterizing the two types of resonances. Our results suggest that
the production and detection of entanglement in quantum dot structures may be
controlled by the manipulation of Fano resonances through external fields.
