0706.2514 | Jaroslaw Bauer | J.H. Bauer | Simple proof of gauge invariance for the S-matrix element of
strong-field photoionization | The paper was initially submitted (in a previous version) on 16
October 2006 to J. Phys. A and rejected. This is the extended version (with 2
figures), which is identical to the paper published online on 12 December
2007 in Physica Scripta | Physica Scripta, vol. 77, 015303 (2008) | 10.1088/0953-4075/41/18/185003 | null | physics.atom-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | The relationship between the length gauge (LG) and the velocity gauge (VG)
exact forms of the photoionization probability amplitude is considered. Our
motivation for this paper comes from applications of the Keldysh-Faisal-Reiss
(KFR) theory, which describes atoms (or ions) in a strong laser field (in the
nonrelativistic approach, in the dipole approximation). On the faith of a
certain widely-accepted assumption, we present a simple proof that the
well-known LG form of the exact photoionization (or photodetachment)
probability amplitude is indeed the gauge-invariant result. In contrast, to
obtain the VG form of this probability amplitude, one has to either (i) neglect
the well-known Goeppert-Mayer exponential factor (which assures gauge
invariance) during all the time evolution of the ionized electron or (ii) put
some conditions on the vector potential of the laser field.

between a pair of normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds. We develop a
first-order deformation calculus for invariant manifolds and show that a
generalized Melnikov function or Melnikov displacement can be written in a
canonical way. This function is defined to be a section of the normal bundle of
the saddle connection.
We show how our definition reproduces the classical methods of Poincar\'{e}
and Melnikov and specializes to methods previously used for exact symplectic
and volume-preserving maps. We use the method to detect the transverse
intersection of stable and unstable manifolds and relate this intersection to
the set of zeros of the Melnikov displacement.

through ancestry in a sexually-reproducing population. In this paper we explore
the question of whether one can reconstruct a pedigree by just observing
sequence data for present day individuals. This is motivated by the increasing
availability of genomic sequences, but in this paper we take a more theoretical
approach and consider what models of sequence evolution might allow pedigree
reconstruction (given sufficiently long sequences). Our results complement
recent work that showed that pedigree reconstruction may be fundamentally
impossible if one uses just the degrees of relatedness between different extant
individuals. We find that for certain stochastic processes, pedigrees can be
recovered up to isomorphism from sufficiently long sequences.

Abell 1446 | 40 AASTeX pages including 15 postscript figures; accepted for
publication in ApJ | null | 10.1086/523886 | null | astro-ph | null | Wide-angle tail (WAT) radio sources are often found in the centers of galaxy
clusters where intracluster medium (ICM) ram pressure may bend the lobes into
their characteristic C-shape. We examine the low redshift (z=0.1035) cluster
Abell 1446, host to the WAT radio source 1159+583. The cluster exhibits
possible evidence for a small-scale cluster-subcluster merger as a cause of the
WAT radio source morphology. This evidence includes the presence of temperature
and pressure substructure along the line that bisects the WAT as well as a
possible wake of stripped interstellar material or a disrupted cool core to the
southeast of the host galaxy. A filament to the north may represent cool,
infalling gas that's contributing to the WAT bending while spectroscopically
determined redshifts of member galaxies may indicate some component of a merger
occurring along the line-of-sight. The WAT model of high flow velocity and low
lobe density is examined as another scenario for the bending of 1159+583. It
has been argued that such a model would allow the ram pressure due to the
galaxy's slow motion through the ICM to shape the WAT source. A temperature
profile shows that the cluster is isothermal (kT= 4.0 keV) in a series of
annuli reaching a radius of 400 kpc. There is no evidence of an ongoing cooling
flow. Temperature, abundance, pressure, density, and mass profiles, as well as
two-dimensional maps of temperature and pressure are presented.

Approach | submitted to Internet Measurement Conference 2007 | null | null | null | cs.NI | null | The traffic behavior of University of Louisville network with the
interconnected backbone routers and the number of Virtual Local Area Network
(VLAN) subnets is investigated using the Random Matrix Theory (RMT) approach.
We employ the system of equal interval time series of traffic counts at all
router to router and router to subnet connections as a representation of the
inter-VLAN traffic. The cross-correlation matrix C of the traffic rate changes
between different traffic time series is calculated and tested against
null-hypothesis of random interactions.
The majority of the eigenvalues \lambda_{i} of matrix C fall within the
bounds predicted by the RMT for the eigenvalues of random correlation matrices.
The distribution of eigenvalues and eigenvectors outside of the RMT bounds
displays prominent and systematic deviations from the RMT predictions.
Moreover, these deviations are stable in time.
The method we use provides a unique possibility to accomplish three
concurrent tasks of traffic analysis. The method verifies the uncongested state
of the network, by establishing the profile of random interactions. It
recognizes the system-specific large-scale interactions, by establishing the
profile of stable in time non-random interactions. Finally, by looking into the
eigenstatistics we are able to detect and allocate anomalies of network traffic
interactions.

ranging from erosion of material, ignition of explosive, to sonoluminescence,
etc. We study such processes using the material-point-method developed recently
in the field of solid physics. The main points of the research include the
relations between symmetry of collapsing and the strength of shock, other
coexisting interfaces, as well as hydrodynamic and thermal-dynamic behaviors
ignored by the pure fluid models. In the case with strong shock, we study the
procedure of jet creation in the cavity; in the case with weak shock, we found
that the cavity can not be collapsed completely by the shock and the cavity may
collapse in a nearly isotropic way. The history of collapsing significantly
influences the distribution of "hot spots" in the shocked material. The change
in symmetry of collapsing is investigated. Since we use the Mie-Gr% \"{u}neisen
equation of state and the effects of strain rate are not taken into account,
the behavior is the same if one magnifies the spatial and temporal scales in
the same way.

which particles have real positions. The velocity of a point x in configuration
space is defined as the standard probability current j(x) divided by the
probability density P(x). However, this ``standard'' j is in fact only one of
infinitely many that transform correctly and satisfy \dot P + \del . j=0. In
this article I show that there is a unique j that can be determined
experimentally as a weak value using techniques that would make sense to a
classical physicist. Moreover, this operationally defined j equals the standard
j, so, assuming \dot x = j/P, the possible Bohmian paths can also be determined
experimentally from a large enough ensemble. Furthermore, this approach to
deriving BM singles out x as the hidden variable, because (for example) the
operationally defined momentum current is in general incompatible with the
evolution of the momentum distribution. Finally I discuss how, in this setting,
the usual quantum probabilities can be derived from a Bayesian standpoint, via
the principle of indifference.

scattering, where emphasis is placed on retaining the genuine off-shell
behavior of realistic effective interactions in the nuclear medium. The
resulting non-local optical potentials are applied to the calculation of (p,n)
differential cross sections, with particular emphasis on small-angle Fermi

levels. The other at lower energies corresponds to dispersive fluctuations
emanating from the magnetic zone center. The fluctuations persist in the
paramagnetic phase also, although weaker in intensity. This supports the
possibility that magnetic fluctuations are present in PuCoGa$_{5}$, where
unconventional d-wave superconductivity is achieved in the absence of magnetic
order.

matters on the deconfinement temperature, $T_c$. We first consider quark flavor
number ($N_f$) dependence of $T_c$. We observe that $T_c$ decreases with $N_f$,
which is consistent with a lattice QCD result. We also delve into how the quark
number density $\rho_q$ affects the value of $T_c$. We find that $T_c$ drops
with increasing $\rho_q$. In both cases, we confirm that the contributions from
quarks are suppressed by $1/N_c$, as it should be, compared to the ones from a
gravitational action (pure Yang-Mills).

applications of the inversion formula, we explicitly take into account the

sections at deep subbarrier energies are governed by the lowest barrier in the
barrier distribution. We apply this procedure to the $^{16}$O +$^{144}$Sm and
$^{16}$O +$^{208}$Pb reactions, and find that the inverted internucleus
potential are much thicker than phenomenological potentials. A relation to the
steep fall-off phenomenon of fusion cross sections recently found at deep
subbarrier energies is also discussed.

Gamma-ray Bursts | 10 pages, 4 figures, accepted by ChJAA | null | 10.1088/1009-9271/7/5/09 | null | astro-ph | null | Many models of gamma-ray bursts suggest a common central engine: a black hole
of several solar masses accreting matter from a disk at an accretion rate from
0.01 to 10 M_\sun / s. The inner region of the disk is cooled by neutrino
emission and large amounts of its binding energy were liberated, which could
trigger the fireball. We improve the neutrino-dominated accreting flows by
considering the effects of the magnetic fields, and find that more than half of
the liberating energy can be extracted directly by the large-scale magnetic
fields on the disk. And it turns out that the temperature of the disk is a bit
lower than the neutrino-dominated accreting flows without magnetic field.
Therefore, The outflows are magneticallydominated rather than neutrino
dominated. In our model, neutrino mechanism can fuel some GRBs (not the
brightest ones), but cannot fuel X-ray flares. However, the magnetic processes
(both BZ and electromagnetic luminosity from a disk) are viable mechanisms for
most of GRBs and the following X-ray flares.

by the Hubbard Hamiltonian using quantum many body configuration interaction
methods. Due to finite termination, we find that the bipartite nature of the
graphene lattice gets destroyed at the edges making the ground state of the
zigzag GNRs a high spin state, whereas the ground state of the armchair GNRs
remains a singlet. Our calculations of charge and spin densities suggest that,
although the electron density prefers to accumulate on the edges, instead of
spin polarization, the up and down spins prefer to mix throughout the GNR
lattice. While the many body charge gap results in insulating behavior for both
kinds of GNRs, the conduction upon application of electric field is still
possible through the edge channels because of their high electron density.
Analysis of optical states suggest differences in quantum efficiency of
luminescence for zigzag and armchair GNRs, which can be probed by simple
experiments.

written in terms of new variables in a compact form proposed in the previous
paper. The new variables used in the formulation were once called the
Cho--Faddeev--Niemi or Cho--Faddeev--Niemi--Shabanov decomposition. Our
formulation enables us to explain the infrared ``Abelian'' dominance, in
addition to magnetic monopole dominance shown in the previous paper, in the
gauge invariant way without relying on the specific gauge fixing called the
maximal Abelian gauge used in the conventional investigations. In this paper,
especially, we demonstrate by numerical simulations that gluon degrees of
freedom other than the ``Abelian'' part acquire the mass to be decoupled in the
low-energy region leading to the infrared Abelian dominance.

operators in a model with family symmetry. Family symmetry can determine the
form of RPV operators as well as the Yukawa matrices. We consider a concrete
model with non-abelian discrete symmetry Q_6, which has only three RPV
trilinear operators with no baryon number violating terms. We find that ratios
of decay rates of the lepton flavor violating processes are fixed thanks to the
family symmetry, predicting BR(tau to 3e)/BR(tau to 3mu) ~ 4
m_{mu}^2/m_{tau}^2.

tribimaximal mixing (TBM), need to be imposed at a high scale $\wedge \sim
10^{12}$ GeV characterising the large masses of right-handed neutrinos required
to implement the seesaw mechanism. RG evolution down to the laboratory scale
$\lambda \sim 10^3$ GeV, generically prone to spoil these relations and their
predicted neutrino mixing patterns, can be made to preserve them by
appropriately constraining the Majorana phases $\alpha_{2,3}$. This is
explicitly demonstrated in the MSSM for two versions of QLC and two versions of
TBM. A preference for $\alpha_2 \simeq \pi$ (i.e. $m_1 \simeq - m_2$) emerges
in each case. Discrimination among the four cases is shown to be possible by
future measurements of $\theta_{13}$.

Optics | null | null | null | physics.bio-ph physics.med-ph | null | It has been shown that conformational modifications of Hb induced by ethanol
consumption can be visualized in optical spectra studying oxygenation kinetics
of hemoglobin or mixing hemoglobin with Cibacron blue dye. Better dye affinity
of blood proteins extracted from alcoholised rats with respect to those from
non-alcoholised ones confirms that ethanol and its metabolites induce
structural pathologies in blood protein molecules. The detected changes for the
case of the posterity of intoxicated animals may be explained as a
post-translation modification, as well as a disturbance of the structure and
function of tissue cellular gene mechanism for the blood creation. It is
established that alcohol intake during first four months leads to the decrease
of fractional weight of oxyhemoglobin and to the increase of methemoglobin
amount in blood. Further alcohol consumption is accompanied by recovering of
the normal level of hemoglobin derivatives in blood. Normalization of the
fractional weight of hemoglobin derivatives in blood after durable (longer than
5-6 months) ethanol intoxication is most probably due to the activation of the
enzyme (acetaldehyde dehydrogenase) system, lowering the level of acetaldehydes
in blood.

Feynman-Vernon influence functional theory for a wave packet influenced by an
environment containing a few discrete modes. We obtain two intrinsic energy
scales relating to the time scales of the system and the environment. Different
relationship between these two scales alters the overall form of the solution
of the system. We also introduce a decoherence measure for a single wave packet
which is defined as the ratio of Schr\"odinger uncertainty over the
delocalization extension of the wave packet and characterizes the
time-evolution behavior of the off-diagonal reduced density matrix element. We
utilize the exact solution and the docherence measure to study the wave packet
decoherence dynamics. We further demonstrate how the dynamical diffusion of the
wave packet leads to non-Markovian decoherence in such a microscopic
environment.

entanglement entropies for typical chain bipartitions increase logarithmically.
As a result, we show that for large enough random fields infinite temperature
spin-spin correlation function displays exponential localization in space
indicating insulating behavior of the model.

scattering in QCD at high energy, we study the influence of the running of the
coupling on the high-energy dynamics with Pomeron loops. We find that the
particle number fluctuations are strongly suppressed by the running of the
coupling, by at least one order of magnitude as compared to the case of a fixed
coupling, for all the rapidities that we have investigated, up to Y=200. This
reflects the slowing down of the evolution by running coupling effects, in
particular, the large rapidity evolution which is required for the formation of
the saturation front via diffusion. We conclude that, for all energies of
interest, processes like deep inelastic scattering or forward particle
production can be reliably studied within the framework of a mean-field
approximation (like the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation) which includes running
coupling effects.

in PRD | Phys.Rev.D76:084032,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.084032 | null | gr-qc astro-ph | null | We present a study of spinning black hole binaries focusing on the spin
dynamics of the individual black holes as well as on the gravitational recoil
acquired by the black hole produced by the merger. We consider two series of
initial spin orientations away from the binary orbital plane. In one of the
series, the spins are anti-aligned; for the second series, one of the spins
points away from the binary along the line separating the black holes. We find
a remarkable agreement between the spin dynamics predicted at 2nd
post-Newtonian order and those from numerical relativity. For each
configuration, we compute the kick of the final black hole. We use the kick
estimates from the series with anti-aligned spins to fit the parameters in the
\KKF{,} and verify that the recoil along the direction of the orbital angular
momentum is $\propto \sin\theta$ and on the orbital plane $\propto \cos\theta$,
with $\theta$ the angle between the spin directions and the orbital angular
momentum. We also find that the black hole spins can be well estimated by
evaluating the isolated horizon spin on spheres of constant coordinate radius.

magnetic nanostripes is of considerable interest because it is essential to the
performance of information storage and logic devices. One of the currently key
problems is to unveil the complex behaviors of oscillatory domain-wall motions
under applied magnetic fields stronger than the so-called Walker field, beyond
which the velocity of domain walls markedly drops. Here, we provide not only
considerably better understandings but also new details of the complex
domain-wall motions. In a certain range just above the Walker field, the
motions are not chaotic but rather periodic with different unique periodicities
of dynamic transformations of a moving domain wall between the different types
of its internal structure. Three unique periodicities found, which consist of
different types of domain wall that are transformed from type one to another.
The transformation periods vary with the field strength and the nanostripe
width. This novel phenomenon can be described by the dynamic motion of a
limited number of magnetic topological solitons such as vortex and antivortex
in nanostripes.

relation from the Ward identities for color gauge invariance is crucial to
guarantee the cancelation among the various gauge-noninvariant contributions in
the cross section. This relation also proves the absence of the "derivative"
terms in the cross section corresponding to the hard-pole and soft-fermion-pole
contributions. Applying the formalism to SIDIS, $ep^\uparrow\to e\pi X$, we
have derived the complete cross section associated with the twist-3
distribution for the transversely polarized nucleon.

quantum field theories with kink excitations. As example, we consider the
multi-frequency Super Sine Gordon model. At weak coupling, this model is robust
with respect to kink confinement phenomena, in contrast to the purely bosonic
case. If we vary the coupling, the model presents a sequence of phase
transitions, where pairs of kinks disappear from the spectrum. The phase
transitions fall into two classes: the first presents the critical behaviors of
the Tricritical Ising model, the second instead those of the gaussian model. In
the first case, close to the critical point, the model has metastable vacua,
with a spontaneously supersymmetry breaking. When the life-time of the
metastable vacua is sufficiently long, the role of goldstino is given by the
massless Majorana fermion of the Ising model. On the contrary, supersymmetry
remains exact in the phase transition of the second type.

Herein, we report on a sample of 34 IBIS AGN or AGN candidate objects for which
there is X-ray data in the Swift/XRT archive. Thanks to these X-ray follow up
observations, the identification of the gamma ray emitters has been possible
and the spectral shape in terms of photon index and absorption has been
evaluated for the first time for the majority of our sample sources. The
sample, enlarged to include 4 more AGN already discussed in the literature, has
been used to provide photon index and column density distribution. We obtain a
mean value of 1.88 with a dispersion of 0.12, i.e. typical of an AGN sample.
Sixteen objects (47%) have column densities in excess of 10^{22} cm^{-2} and,
as expected, a large fraction of the absorbed sources are within the Sey 2
sample. We have provided a new diagnostic tool (NH versus
F(2-10)keV/F(20-100)keV softness ratio) to isolate peculiar objects; we find at
least one absorbed Sey 1 galaxy, 3 Compton thick AGN candidates; and one secure
example of a "true" type 2 AGN. Within the sample of 10 still unidentified
objects, 3 are almost certainly AGN of type 2; 3 to 4 have spectral slopes
typical of AGN; and two are located high on the galactic plane and are strong
enough radio emitters so that can be considered good AGN candidates.

dataset that we obtained with the WSRT. We developed a new method to calculate
a linear fit to periodic data, which we use to determine rotation measures from
our polarization angle data. From simulations of a Faraday screen + noise we
could determine how compatible the data are with Faraday screens. An
unexpectedly large fraction of 14% of the lines-of-sight in our dataset show an
unresolved main component in the Faraday depth spectrum. For lines-of-sight
with a single unresolved component we demonstrate that a Faraday screen in
front of a synchrotron emitting region that contains a turbulent magnetic field
component can explain the data.

Giancarlo Raiconi | A statistical mechanics approach to reverse engineering: sparsity and
biological priors on gene regulatory networks | null | null | null | null | q-bio.MN q-bio.QM | null | The important task of determining the connectivity of gene networks, and at a
more detailed level even the kind of interaction existing between genes, can
nowadays be tackled by microarraylike technologies. Yet, there is still a large
amount of unknowns with respect to the amount of data provided by a single
microarray experiment, and therefore reliable gene network retrieval procedures
must integrate all of the available biological knowledge, even if coming from
different sources and of different nature. In this paper we present a reverse
engineering algorithm able to reveal the underlying gene network by using
time-series dataset on gene expressions considering the system response to
different perturbations. The approach is able to determine the sparsity of the
gene network, and to take into account possible {\it a priori} biological
knowledge on it. The validity of the reverse engineering approach is
highlighted through the deduction of the topology of several {\it simulated}
gene networks, where we also discuss how the performance of the algorithm
improves enlarging the amount of data or if any a priori knowledge is
considered. We also apply the algorithm to experimental data on a nine gene
network in {\it Escherichia coli

present manuscript was processed an independent experimental implementation
of the same scheme discussed in our manuscript has been made bythe Geneva GAP

of a Franson interferometric setup, between pairs of frequency entangled
photons emitted by distinct non linear crystals in a parametric down conversion
process. Our scheme consists of two distinct sources of frequency entangled
photons. One photon of each pair is sent to a separate Mach - Zender
interferometer while the other photons of the pairs are mixed by a beam
splitter and then detected in a Ou - Mandel interferometer. For suitably
postselected joint measuremetns, the photons sent at the Mach -Zender show a
coincidence photocount statistics which depends non locally on the settings of
the two interferometers.

subsection on PVD added | null | 10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.12797.x | null | astro-ph | null | We combine N-body simulations of structure growth with physical modelling of
galaxy evolution to investigate whether the shift in cosmological parameters
between the 1-year and 3-year results from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy
Probe affects predictions for the galaxy population. Structure formation is
significantly delayed in the WMAP3 cosmology, because the initial matter
fluctuation amplitude is lower on the relevant scales. The decrease in dark
matter clustering strength is, however, almost entirely offset by an increase
in halo bias, so predictions for galaxy clustering are barely altered. In both
cosmologies several combinations of physical parameters can reproduce observed,
low-redshift galaxy properties; the star formation, supernova feedback and AGN
feedback efficiencies can be played off against each other to give similar
results. Models which fit observed luminosity functions predict projected
2-point correlation functions which scatter by about 10-20 per cent on large
scale and by larger factors on small scale, depending both on cosmology and on
details of galaxy formation. Measurements of the pairwise velocity distribution
prefer the WMAP1 cosmology, but careful treatment of the systematics is needed.
Given current modelling uncertainties, it is not easy to distinguish the WMAP1
and WMAP3 cosmologies on the basis of low-redshift galaxy properties. Model
predictions diverge more dramatically at high redshift. Better observational
data at z>2 will better constrain galaxy formation and perhaps also
cosmological parameters.

approach | 16 pages, no figures and 34 references | null | null | null | hep-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | In this work, we first use Thompson's renormalization group method to treat
QCD-vacuum behavior close to the regime of asymptotic freedom. QCD-vacuum
behaves effectively like a "paramagnetic system" of a classical theory in the
sense that virtual color charges (gluons) emerge in it as spin effect of a
paramagnetic material when a magnetic field aligns their microscopic magnetic
dipoles. Making a classical analogy with the paramagnetism of Landau's
theory,we are able to introduce a kind of Landau effective action without
temperature and phase transition for simply representing QCD-vacuum behavior at
higher energies as magnetization of a paramagnetic material in the presence of
a magnetic field H. This reasoning allows us to use Thompson's heuristic
approach in order to extract an "effective susceptibility" ($\chi>0$) of
QCD-vacuum. It depends on logarithmic of energy scale u to investigate hadronic
matter. Consequently,we are able to get an "effective magnetic permeability"
($\mu>1$) of such a "paramagnetic vacuum". As QCD-vacuum must obey Lorentz
invariance,the attainment of $\mu>1$ must simply require that the "effective
electrical permissivity" is $\epsilon<1$,in such a way that $\mu\epsilon=1$
(c^2=1).This leads to the antiscreening effect, where the asymptotic freedom
takes place. On the other hand, quarks cofinement, a subject which is not
treatable by perturbative calculations, is worked by the present approach. We
apply the method to study this subject in order to obtain the string constant,
which is in agreement with the experiments.

isolation | 10 pages, 12 figures, proposed for acceptance A&A | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077481 | null | astro-ph | null | The AMIGA project aims to build a well defined and statistically significant
reference sample of isolated galaxies in order to estimate the environmental
effects on the formation and evolution of galaxies. The goal of this paper is
to provide a measure of the environment of the isolated galaxies in the AMIGA
sample, quantifying the influence of the candidate neighbours identified in our
previous work and their potential effects on the evolution of the primary
galaxies. Here we provide a quantification of the isolation degree of the
galaxies in this sample. Our starting sample is the Catalogue of Isolated
Galaxies (CIG). We used two parameters to estimate the influence exerted by the
neighbour galaxies on the CIG galaxy: the local number density of neighbour
galaxies and the tidal strength affecting the CIG galaxy. We show that both
parameters together provide a comprehensive picture of the environment. For
comparison, those parameters have also been derived for galaxies in denser
environments such as triplets, groups and clusters. The CIG galaxies show a
continuous spectrum of isolation, as quantified by the two parameters, from
very isolated to interacting. The fraction of CIG galaxies whose properties are
expected to be influenced by the environment is however low (159 out of 950
galaxies). The isolated parameters derived for the comparsion samples gave
higher values than for the CIG and we found clear differences for the average
values of the 4 samples considered, proving the sensitivity of these
parameters. The environment of the galaxies in the CIG has been characterised,
using two complementary parameters quantifying the isolation degree, the local
number density of the neighbour galaxies and the tidal forces affecting the
isolated galaxies. (Abridged)

cooling radius in units of a (0<alpha<1), the central temperature in units of
T_0 (0<t<1), and the asymptotic baryon fraction in units of the cosmic value
(f~1). It is shown that our model is able to reproduce the three-dimensional
density and temperature profiles inferred from X-ray observations of real
clusters within a 20 per cent accuracy over most of the radial range. Some
possible applications are briefly discussed.

evolve from oxygen-rich M-type stars into carbon stars, through the dredge up

help achieve a deeper understanding of the chemical evolution as a star ascends
the AGB, as well as shed more light on the mass-loss mechanism. We have
initiated a large survey of 40 S-stars to observe line emission in common
molecules such as CO, SiO, HCN, CS and SiS. Detailed radiative transfer
modelling of multi-transition CO radio line observations towards a sample of 40
S-stars shows that the mass-loss rate distribution of S-stars is consistent
with those found for M-type AGB stars and carbon stars. Initial results from
modelling of the circumstellar SiO emission are also presented.

grand unified theories. We consider the spectroscopy of the squarks and
sleptons in SU(5) and SO(10) grand unified theories, and show how the
underlying supersymmetry breaking parameters of these theories can be
determined from a measurement of different sparticle masses. This analysis is
done analytically by integrating the one-loop renormalization group equations
with appropriate boundary conditions implied by the underlying grand unified
gauge group. We also consider the impact of non-universal gaugino masses on the
sparticle spectrum, especially the neutralino and chargino masses which arise
in supersymmetric grand unified theories with non-minimal gauge kinetic
function. In particular, we study the interrelationships between the squark and
slepton masses which arise in grand unified theories at the one-loop level,
which can be used to distinguish between the different underlying gauge groups
and their breaking pattern to the Standard Model gauge group. We also comment
on the corrections that can affect these one-loop results.

Affine ones, though we have a constructive theorem which can be applied both
for finite and infinite cases. One can conclusively said that theorem gives the
Poincare polynomial P(G) of a Kac-Moody Lie algebra G in the product form
P(G)=P(g) R where g is a precisely chosen sub-algebra of G and R is a rational
function. Not in the way which theorem says but, at least for 48 hyperbolic Lie
algebras considered in this work, we have shown that there is another way of
choosing a sub-algebra in such a way that R appears to be the inverse of a
finite polynomial. It is clear that a rational function or its inverse can not
be expressed in the form of a finite polynomial. Our method is based on
numerical calculations and results are given for each and every one of 48
Hyperbolic Lie algebras. In an illustrative example however, we will give how
above-mentioned theorem gives us rational functions in which case we find a
finite polynomial for which theorem fails to obtain.

Channel (ACS/SBC) on board the Hubble Space Telescope. While the jet morphology
is very similar to that in the optical and near-ultraviolet, the spectral
energy distributions (SEDs) of the jet's sub-regions show an upturn in nu f_nu
at 150 nm compared to 300 nm everywhere in the jet. Moreover, the 150 nm flux
is compatible with extrapolating the X-ray power-law down to the ultra-violet
region. This constitutes strong support for a common origin of the jet's far-UV
and X-ray emission. It implies that even a substantial fraction of the *visible
light* in the X-ray brightest parts of the jet arises from the same spectral
component as the X-rays, as had been suggested earlier based on Spitzer Space
Telescope observations. We argue that the identification of this UV/X-ray
component opens up the possibility to establish the synchrotron origin of the
X-ray emission by optical polarimetry.

configurations: hadronic and leptonic (e+ e- q qbar, mu+ mu- q qbar, q qbar nu
nubar), fully leptonic (l+ l- l'+ l'-) and fully hadronic final states (q qbar
q qbar, with a low mass q qbar pair). Measurements of the Zgamma* cross-section
for the various final states have been compared with the Standard Model
expectations and found to be consistent within the errors. In addition, a total
cross-section measurement of the l+ l- l'+ l'- cross-section is reported, and
found to be in agreement with the prediction of the Standard Model.

mass and below by microlensing | 13 pages, 4 figures and 1 table. Accepted for publication in MNRAS | null | 10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.12124.x | null | astro-ph | null | (abridged) The discovery of OGLE 2005-BLG-390Lb, the first cool rocky/icy
exoplanet, impressively demonstrated the sensitivity of the microlensing
technique to extra-solar planets below 10 M_earth. A planet of 1 M_earth in the
same spot would have provided a detectable deviation with an amplitude of ~ 3 %
and a duration of ~ 12 h. An early detection of a deviation could trigger
higher-cadence sampling which would have allowed the discovery of an Earth-mass
planet in this case. Here, we describe the implementation of an automated
anomaly detector, embedded into the eSTAR system, that profits from immediate
feedback provided by the robotic telescopes that form the RoboNet-1.0 network.
It went into operation for the 2007 microlensing observing season. As part of
our discussion about an optimal strategy for planet detection, we shed some new
light on whether concentrating on highly-magnified events is promising and
planets in the 'resonant' angular separation equal to the angular Einstein
radius are revealed most easily. Given that sub-Neptune mass planets can be
considered being common around the host stars probed by microlensing
(preferentially M- and K-dwarfs), the higher number of events that can be
monitored with a network of 2m telescopes and the increased detection
efficiency for planets below 5 M_earth arising from an optimized strategy gives
a common effort of current microlensing campaigns a fair chance to detect an
Earth-mass planet (from the ground) ahead of the COROT or Kepler missions. The
detection limit of gravitational microlensing extends even below 0.1 M_earth,
but such planets are not very likely to be detected from current campaigns.
However, these will be within the reach of high-cadence monitoring with a
network of wide-field telescopes or a space-based telescope.

HII region, driving a CO bipolar outflow, and located at the center of a
massive rotating toroid undergoing infall towards the HC region. Recent water
maser observations suggest that the HC region is expanding and accretion onto
the star is halted. Aims. This study aims to confirm the expansion scenario
proposed for the HC region on the basis of recent H2O maser observations.
Methods. We carried out continuum VLA observations at 1.3cm and 7mm with the A
array plus Pie Town configuration to map the HC region towards G24 A1. Results.
The emission of the HC region has been resolved and shows a ring shape
structure. The profiles of the emission obtained by taking slices at different
angles passing through the barycenter of the HC region confirm the shell
structure of the emission. The ratio between the inner and the outer radius of
the shell, Ri/Ro, derived fitting the normalized brightness temperature profile
passing through the peak of the 7mm emission, is 0.9, which indicates that the
shell is thin. The deconvolved outer radius estimated from the fit is 590 AU.
These results imply that the HC region in G24 A1 cannot be described in terms
of a classical, homogeneous HII region but is instead an ionized shell. This
gives support to the model of an expanding wind-driven, ionized shell suggested
by the kinematics and distribution of the H2O masers associated with the HC
region. According to this model, the HC region is expanding on very short times
scales, 21-66 yr.

La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$ are drastically affected with a change in

reveal that this is perhaps due to inhomogeniety in substitution of Ti$^{4+}$
on Mn sites. It is found that, in the high temperature annealed samples, the
substitution of Ti supresses the double exchange interaction due to the
formation of Mn$^{3+}$-O-Ti$^{4+}$ chains. While in the low temperature
annealed case substitution of Ti causes formation of isolated ferromagnetic
clusters linked to each other by a variable range hopping polaron.

Galactic Halo | 10 pages, 4 figures. Accepted for publication in Astronomy &
Astrophysics | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077714 | null | astro-ph | null | The interpretation of microlensing results towards the Large
Magellanic Cloud (LMC) still remains controversial. White dwarfs have been
proposed to explain these results and, hence, to contribute significantly to
the mass budget of our Galaxy. However, several constraints on the role played
by regular carbon-oxygen white dwarfs exist. Massivewhite dwarfs are thought to
be made of a mixture of oxygen and neon. Correspondingly, their cooling rate is
larger than those of typical carbon-oxygen white dwarfs and they fade to
invisibility in short timescales. Consequently, they constitute a good
candidate for explaining the microlensing results. Here, we examine in detail
this hypothesis by using the most recent and up-to-date cooling tracks for
massive white dwarfs and a Monte Carlo simulator which takes into account the
most relevant Galactic inputs. We find that oxygen-neon white dwarfs cannot
account for a substantial fraction of the microlensing depth towards the LMC,
independently of the adopted initial mass function, although some microlensing
events could be due to oxygen--neon white dwarfs. The white dwarf population
contributes at most a 5% to the mass of the Galactic halo.

interpretation paradigms we proposed in July 2001, comparing and contrasting
them with the ones in the current literature. Thanks to the observations by
Swift and by VLT, this analysis points to a "canonical GRB" originating from
markedly different astrophysical scenarios. The communality is that they are
all emitted in the formation of a black hole with small or null angular
momentum. The following sequence appears to be canonical: the vacuum
polarization process creating an optically thick self accelerating
electron-positron plasma; the engulfment of baryonic mass during the plasma
expansion; the adiabatic expansion of the optically thick "fireshell" up to the
transparency; the interaction of the remaining accelerated baryons with the
interstellar medium (ISM). This leads to the canonical GRB composed of a proper
GRB (P-GRB), emitted at the moment of transparency, followed by an extended
afterglow. The parameters are the plasma total energy, the fireshell baryon
loading and the ISM filamentary distribution around the source. In the limit of
no baryon loading the total energy is radiated in the P-GRB. In this limit, the
canonical GRBs explain as well the short GRBs.

J1119-6127 | 8 pages, 4 figures, A&A, in press | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077486 | null | astro-ph | null | Recent radio observations have unveiled the existence of a number of radio
pulsars with spin-down derived magnetic fields in the magnetar range. However,
their observational properties appears to be more similar to classical radio
pulsars than to magnetars. To shed light on this puzzle we first have to
determine whether the spin-down derived magnetic field values for these radio
pulsars are indeed representative of the actual neutron star magnetic field or
if they are polluted, e.g. by the effects of a torque from a fallback disk. To
investigate this possibility, we have performed deep IR observations of one of
these high magnetic field radio pulsars (PSR J1119-6127) with the ESO VLT to
search for IR emission which can be associated with a disk. No IR emission is
detected from the pulsar position down to J=24, H=23, Ks=22. By comparing our
flux upper limits with the predictions of fallback disk models, we have found
that we can only exclude the presence of a disk with accretion rate dot M
>3x10^16 g/s. This lower limit cannot rule out the presence of a substantial
disk torque on the pulsar, which would then lead to overestimate the value of
the magnetic field inferred from P and dot P.

correlations between them, and the physics behind them, are still not well
understood. Apart from accretion rates and black hole masses, density and
outflows were speculated to be among the main drivers of the NLS1 phenomenon.
Here, we utilize the diagnostic power of the [SII]6716,6731 intensity ratio to
measure the density of the NLR systematically and homogeneously for a large
sample of NLS1 galaxies, and we perform a comparison with a sample of
broad-line type 1 AGN. We report the discovery of a zone of avoidance in
density in the sense that AGN with broad lines (FWHM_Hbeta > 2000 km/s) avoid
low densities, while NLS1 galaxies show a wider distribution in the NLR
density, including a significant number of objects with low densities. A
correlation analysis further shows that the Eddington ratio L/L_Edd
anti-correlates with density. We investigate a number of different models for
the zone of avoidance in density. Supersolar metallicities and temperature
effects, a strong starburst contribution in NLS1 galaxies, different NLR
extents and selective obscuration are considered unlikely. Possible differences
in the fraction of matter-bounded clouds and differences in the interstellar
media of the host galaxies of NLS1 galaxies and broad-line Seyfert 1 (BLS1)
galaxies can only be tested further with future observations. We tentatively
favor the effects of winds/outflows, stronger in NLS1 galaxies than in BLS1
galaxies, to explain the observations.

mean field theory (DMFT) corresponds to the summation of a special class of
local diagrams in the skeleton expansion of the self-energy. In the real space
representation, these local diagrams are characterized by the absence of vertex
corrections involving phonons at different lattice sites. Such corrections
vanish in the limit of infinite dimensions, for which the DMFT provides the
exact solution of the Holstein polaron problem. However, for finite dimensional
systems the accuracy of the DMFT is limited. In particular, it cannot describe
correctly the adiabatic spreading of the polaron over multiple lattice sites.
Arguments are given that the DMFT limitations on vertex corrections found for
the Holstein polaron problem persist for finite electron densities and
arbitrary phonon dispersion.

infinite-state Markov chains. We call a Markov chain decisive w.r.t. a given
set of target states F if it almost certainly eventually reaches either F or a
state from which F can no longer be reached. While all finite Markov chains are
trivially decisive (for every set F), this also holds for many classes of
infinite Markov chains. Infinite Markov chains which contain a finite attractor
are decisive w.r.t. every set F. In particular, this holds for probabilistic
lossy channel systems (PLCS). Furthermore, all globally coarse Markov chains
are decisive. This class includes probabilistic vector addition systems (PVASS)
and probabilistic noisy Turing machines (PNTM). We consider both safety and
liveness problems for decisive Markov chains, i.e., the probabilities that a
given set of states F is eventually reached or reached infinitely often,
respectively. 1. We express the qualitative problems in abstract terms for
decisive Markov chains, and show an almost complete picture of its decidability
for PLCS, PVASS and PNTM. 2. We also show that the path enumeration algorithm
of Iyer and Narasimha terminates for decisive Markov chains and can thus be
used to solve the approximate quantitative safety problem. A modified variant
of this algorithm solves the approximate quantitative liveness problem. 3.
Finally, we show that the exact probability of (repeatedly) reaching F cannot
be effectively expressed (in a uniform way) in Tarski-algebra for either PLCS,
PVASS or (P)NTM.

cycle as measured by the sunspot number. The recent advances in the methodology
of the theory of extreme values is applied to the maximal extremes of the time
series of sunspots. We focus on the extreme events that exceed a carefully
chosen threshold and a generalized Pareto distribution is fitted to the tail of
the empirical cumulative distribution. A maximum likelihood method is used to
estimate the parameters of the generalized Pareto distribution and confidence
levels are also given to the parameters. Due to the lack of an automatic
procedure for selecting the threshold, we analyze the sensitivity of the fitted
generalized Pareto distribution to the exact value of the threshold. According
to the available data, that only spans the previous ~250 years, the cumulative
distribution of the time series is bounded, yielding an upper limit of 324 for
the sunspot number. We also estimate that the return value for each solar cycle
is ~188, while the return value for a century increases to ~228. Finally, the
results also indicate that the most probable return time for a large event like
the maximum at solar cycle 19 happens once every ~700 years and that the
probability of finding such a large event with a frequency smaller than ~50
years is very small. In spite of the essentially extrapolative character of
these results, their statistical significance is very large.

The surface reconstruction pattern obtained agrees well with findings from
scanning tunneling microscopy. In particular, strong Pt--Pt dimerization is
characteristical for the nanowires. The surface electronic structure is
significantly perturbed due to Ge--Pt interaction, which induces remarkable
shifts of Ge states towards the Fermi energy. As a consequence, the topmost Ge
layers are subject to a metal-insulator transition.

(2007), 476, 31 | 10.1051/0004-6361:20078065 | null | astro-ph | null | We apply various expansion schemes that may be used to study gravitational
clustering to the simple case of the Zeldovich dynamics. Using the well-known
exact solution of the Zeldovich dynamics we can compare the predictions of
these various perturbative methods with the exact nonlinear result and study
their convergence properties. We find that most systematic expansions fail to
recover the decay of the response function in the highly nonlinear regime.
``Linear methods'' lead to increasingly fast growth in the nonlinear regime for
higher orders, except for Pade approximants that give a bounded response at any
order. ``Nonlinear methods'' manage to obtain some damping at one-loop order
but they fail at higher orders. Although it recovers the exact Gaussian
damping, a resummation in the high-k limit is not justified very well as the
generation of nonlinear power does not originate from a finite range of
wavenumbers (hence there is no simple separation of scales). No method is able
to recover the relaxation of the matter power spectrum on highly nonlinear
scales. It is possible to impose a Gaussian cutoff in a somewhat ad-hoc fashion
to reproduce the behavior of the exact two-point functions for two different
times. However, this cutoff is not directly related to the clustering of matter
and disappears in exact equal-time statistics such as the matter power
spectrum. On a quantitative level, the usual perturbation theory, and the
nonlinear scheme to which one adds an ansatz for the response function with
such a Gaussian cutoff, are the two most efficient methods. These results
should hold for the gravitational dynamics as well (this has been checked at
one-loop order), since the structure of the equations of motion is identical
for both dynamics.

can result for models where the energy scale of inflation is of the order of

spectrum of protons with E > 10^{19} eV that are injected at cosmological
sources and then travel through the large scale structure of the universe,
losing the energy due to interactions with the cosmic background radiation.

radiation from the Arp 220 nuclear region. The dust source in the West nucleus
has a size of 0.19 x 0.13 arcsec and a 1.3mm brightness temperature of 90K.
This implies that the dust ring in the West nucleus has a high opacity, with
tau = 1 at 1.1mm. Not only is the dust ring itself optically thick in the submm
and far-IR, but it is surrounded by the previously-known, rapidly rotating
molecular disk of size 0.5 arcsec that is also optically thick in the mid-IR.
The molecular ring is cooler than the hot dust disk because the CO(2-1) line is
seen in absorption against the dust disk. The dust ring is massive (1E9 solar
masses), compact (radius 35pc), and hot (true dust temperature 170K). It
resembles rather strikingly the dust ring detected around the quasar APM
08279+52, and is most unlike the warm, extended dust sources in starburst
galaxies. Because there is a strong temperature gradient from the hot dust ring
to the cooler molecular disk, the heating must come from a concentrated source,
an AGN accretion disk that is completely invisible at optical wavelengths, and
heavily obscured in hard X-rays.

field of spherical central mass does not lead to a lowering of symmetry of the

the changes in the refractive indices of the space treated as an optical medium
near the massive spherical body under the influence of its gravitation field
have been derived.

networks with inhibitory and excitatory neurons | null | null | null | null | q-bio.NC | null | The aim of the present paper is to study the effects of Hebbian learning in
random recurrent neural networks with biological connectivity, i.e. sparse
connections and separate populations of excitatory and inhibitory neurons. We
furthermore consider that the neuron dynamics may occur at a (shorter) time
scale than synaptic plasticity and consider the possibility of learning rules
with passive forgetting. We show that the application of such Hebbian learning
leads to drastic changes in the network dynamics and structure. In particular,
the learning rule contracts the norm of the weight matrix and yields a rapid
decay of the dynamics complexity and entropy. In other words, the network is
rewired by Hebbian learning into a new synaptic structure that emerges with
learning on the basis of the correlations that progressively build up between
neurons. We also observe that, within this emerging structure, the strongest
synapses organize as a small-world network. The second effect of the decay of
the weight matrix spectral radius consists in a rapid contraction of the
spectral radius of the Jacobian matrix. This drives the system through the
``edge of chaos'' where sensitivity to the input pattern is maximal. Taken
together, this scenario is remarkably predicted by theoretical arguments
derived from dynamical systems and graph theory.

spontaneous polarization. It is proportional to the square of spontaneous
polarization. The phenomenon revealed by us corresponds to combined effects of
crystal optics, which appear due to common action of different fields.

Quantum Attacker | 17 pages, v2: mainly editorial changes taking into account referee
comments | null | null | null | quant-ph cs.CR | null | Randomness extraction is of fundamental importance for information-theoretic
cryptography. It allows to transform a raw key about which an attacker has some
limited knowledge into a fully secure random key, on which the attacker has
essentially no information. Up to date, only very few randomness-extraction
techniques are known to work against an attacker holding quantum information on
the raw key. This is very much in contrast to the classical (non-quantum)
setting, which is much better understood and for which a vast amount of
different techniques are known and proven to work.
We prove a new randomness-extraction technique, which is known to work in the
classical setting, to be secure against a quantum attacker as well. Randomness
extraction is done by XOR'ing a so-called delta-biased mask to the raw key. Our
result allows to extend the classical applications of this extractor to the
quantum setting. We discuss the following two applications. We show how to
encrypt a long message with a short key, information-theoretically secure
against a quantum attacker, provided that the attacker has enough quantum
uncertainty on the message. This generalizes the concept of entropically-secure
encryption to the case of a quantum attacker. As second application, we show
how to do error-correction without leaking partial information to a quantum
attacker. Such a technique is useful in settings where the raw key may contain
errors, since standard error-correction techniques may provide the attacker
with information on, say, a secret key that was used to obtain the raw key.

matter structures, independent of the dynamical or hydrostatic equilibrium
properties of the deflecting system. However, it depends on the kinematic
status. In fact, either a translational motion or a coherent rotation of the
mass distribution can affect the lensing properties. Here, light deflection by
galaxy clusters in motion is considered. Even if gravitational lensing mass
measurements of galaxy clusters are regarded as very reliable estimates, the
kinematic effect should be considered. A typical peculiar motion with respect
to the Hubble flow brings about a systematic error < 0.3%, independent of the
mass of the cluster. On the other hand, the effect of the spin increases with
the total mass. For cluster masses ~ 10^{15}M_{sun}, the effect of the
gravitomagnetic term is < 0.04% on strong lensing estimates and < 0.5% in the
weak lensing analyses. The total kinematic effect on the mass estimate is then
< 1%, which is negligible in current statistical studies. In the weak lensing
regime, the rotation imprints a typical angular modulation in the tangential
shear distortion. This would allow in principle a detection of the
gravitomagnetic field and a direct measurement of the angular velocity of the
cluster but the required background source densities are well beyond current
tecnological capabilities.

[(4,2),(6,2),(8,4),(10,4)] SiC-NTs as well as the single honeycomb SiC sheet
have been calculated within DFT with the LDA. It is found that all the SiC
nanotubes are semiconductors, except the ultrasmall (3,0) and (4,0) zigzag
tubes which are metallic. Furthermore, the band gap of the zigzag SiC-NTs which
is direct, may be reduced from that of the SiC sheet to zero by reducing the
diameter ($D$), though the band gap for all the SiC nanotubes with a diameter
larger than ~20 \AA$ $ is almost independent of diameter. For the electric
field parallel to the tube axis ($E\parallel \hat{z}$), the $\epsilon''$ for
all the SiC-NTs with a moderate diameter (say, $D$ $>$ 8 \AA$ $) in the
low-energy region (0~6 eV) consists of a single distinct peak at ~3 eV.
However, for the small diameter SiC nanotubes such as the (4,2),(4,4) SiC-NTs,
the $\epsilon''$ spectrum does deviate markedly from this general behavior. In
the high-energy region (from 6 eV upwards), the $\epsilon''$ for all the
SiC-NTs exhibit a broad peak centered at ~7 eV. For the electric field
perpendicular to the tube axis ($E\perp \hat{z}$), the $\epsilon''$ spectrum of
all the SiC-NTs except the (4,4), (3,0) and (4,0) nanotubes, in the low energy
region also consists of a pronounced peak at around 3 eV whilst in the
high-energy region is roughly made up of a broad hump starting from 6 eV. The
magnitude of the peaks is in general about half of the magnitude of the
corresponding ones for $E\parallel \hat{z}$.

or rank one, perturbation caused by the (core) hole left behind after the
photo-excitation of an electron into the conduction band. The photo-absorption
spectra result from the competition between two many-body responses, Anderson's
orthogonality catastrophe and the Mahan-Nozieres-DeDominicis contribution. Both
mechanisms depend on the system size through the number of particles and, more
importantly, fluctuations produced by the coherence characteristic of
mesoscopic samples. The latter lead to a modification of the dipole matrix
element and trigger one of our key results: a rounded K-edge typically found in
metals will turn into a (slightly) peaked edge on average in the mesoscopic
regime. We consider in detail the effect of the "bound state" produced by the
core hole.

Pioneering work by Pravdo & Shaklan (1996), made in the optical, reached a
precision of 150 micro-arcsec in direct imaging but is ultimately limited by
atmospheric turbulence and differential chromatic refraction (DCR) effects.
Neuhaeuser et al. (2006, 2007) demonstrated that AO assisted observations with
NACO in a near-infrared narrow band filter allow measurements with a precision
of ~50 muas (micro-arsec) on a 0.6 arcsec binary within one hour and are
unaffected by DCR effects. This opens new possibilities for astrometric
detections of extrasolar planets and the determination of their true masses. We
discuss here how to improve the measurements and address the necessary
calibrations.
