0706.3214 | Shinji Mukohyama | Shinji Mukohyama | Reheating a multi-throat universe by brane motion | 15 pages. v3: estimate of reheat temperature and reference added;
published version | null | 10.1007/s10714-008-0696-3 | UTAP-580, RESCEU-72/07 | hep-th astro-ph gr-qc hep-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | We propose a mechanism of reheating after inflation in multi-throat scenarios
of warped extra dimensions. Validity of an effective field theory on the
standard model (SM) brane requires that the position of the SM brane during
inflation be different from the position after inflation. The latter is
supposed to be near the tip of the SM throat but the former is not. After
inflation, when the Hubble expansion rate becomes sufficiently low, the SM
brane starts moving towards the tip and eventually oscillates. The SM fields
are excited by the brane motion and the universe is reheated. Since interaction
between the brane position modulus and the SM fields is suppressed only by the
local string scale, the modulus effectively decays into the SM fields.

superfluid-insulator transitions in two spatial dimensions described by
"Lorentz"-invariant quantum critical points. We allow for a weak impurity
scattering rate, a magnetic field B, and a deviation in the density, \rho, from
that of the insulator. We show that the frequency-dependent thermal and
electric linear response functions, including the Nernst coefficient, are fully
determined by a single transport coefficient (a universal electrical
conductivity), the impurity scattering rate, and a few thermodynamic state
variables. With reasonable estimates for the parameters, our results predict a
magnetic field and temperature dependence of the Nernst signal which resembles
measurements in the cuprates, including the overall magnitude. Our theory
predicts a "hydrodynamic cyclotron mode" which could be observable in ultrapure
samples. We also present exact results for the zero frequency transport
co-efficients of a supersymmetric conformal field theory (CFT), which is
solvable by the AdS/CFT correspondence. This correspondence maps the \rho and B
perturbations of the 2+1 dimensional CFT to electric and magnetic charges of a
black hole in the 3+1 dimensional anti-de Sitter space. These exact results are
found to be in full agreement with the general predictions of our hydrodynamic
analysis in the appropriate limiting regime. The mapping of the hydrodynamic
and AdS/CFT results under particle-vortex duality is also described.

accepted by ApJ | ApJ 670:221, Nov 20, 2007 | 10.1086/521997 | CITA-2007-7 | astro-ph physics.flu-dyn physics.plasm-ph | null | There has been significant recent work which examines a situation where a
thin magnetic layer is `draped' over a core merging into a larger cluster; the
same process also appears to be at work at a bubble rising from the cluster
centre. Such a thin magnetic layer could thermally isolate the core from the
cluster medium, but only if the same shear process which generates the layer
does not later disrupt it. On the other hand, if the magnetized layer can
stabilize against the shear instabilities, then the magnetic layer can have the
additional dynamical effect of reducing the shear-driven mixing of the core's
material during the merger process. These arguments could equally well to
underdense cluster bubbles, which would be even more prone to disruption. While
it is well known that magnetic fields can suppress instabilities, it is less
clear that a thin layer can suppress instabilities on scales significantly
larger than its thickness. Here we consider the stability imparted by a thin
magnetized layer. Such a layer can have a significant stabilizing effect even
on modes with wavelengths much larger than the thickness of the layer l; to
stabilize modes ten times larger requires only that the Alfv\'en speed in the
magnetized layer is comparable to the relevant destabilizing velocity -- the
shear velocity in the case of pure Kelvin-Helmholtz like instability, or a
typical buoyancy velocity in the case of pure Rayleigh-Taylor. We confirm our
calculations with two-dimensional numerical experiments using the Athena code.

behaviour is whether real systems of higher complexity levels can be understood
with at least the same degree of objective, "scientific" rigour and
universality as "simple" systems of classical, Newtonian science paradigm. The
problem is reduced to that of arbitrary, many-body interaction (unsolved in
standard theory). Here we review its causally complete solution, the ensuing
concept of complexity and applications. The discovered key properties of
dynamic multivaluedness and entanglement give rise to a qualitatively new kind
of mathematical structure providing the exact version of real system behaviour.
The extended mathematics of complexity contains the truly universal definition
of dynamic complexity, randomness (chaoticity), classification of all possible
dynamic regimes, and the unifying principle of any system dynamics and
evolution, the universal symmetry of complexity. Every real system has a
non-zero (and actually high) value of unreduced dynamic complexity determining,
in particular, "mysterious" behaviour of quantum systems and relativistic
effects causally explained now as unified manifestations of complex interaction
dynamics. The observed differences between various systems are due to different
regimes and levels of their unreduced dynamic complexity. We outline
applications of universal concept of dynamic complexity emphasising cases of
"truly complex" systems from higher complexity levels (ecological and living
systems, brain operation, intelligence and consciousness, autonomic information
and communication systems) and show that the urgently needed progress in social
and intellectual structure of civilisation inevitably involves qualitative
transition to unreduced complexity understanding (we call it "revolution of
complexity").

background (CMB) are among the most effective. We examine how the
cross-correlation of the 21 cm brightness and the CMB Doppler fluctuations on
large angular scales can be used to study this epoch. We employ a new model of
the growth of large scale fluctuations of the ionized fraction as reionization
proceeds. We take into account the peculiar velocity field of baryons and show
that its effect on the cross correlation can be interpreted as a mixing of
Fourier modes. We find that the cross-correlation signal is strongly peaked
toward the end of reionization and that the sign of the correlation should be
positive because of the inhomogeneity inherent to reionization. The signal
peaks at degree scales (l~100) and comes almost entirely from large physical
scales (k~0.01 Mpc). Since many of the foregrounds and noise that plague low
frequency radio observations will not correlate with CMB measurements, the
cross correlation might appear to provide a robust diagnostic of the
cosmological origin of the 21 cm radiation around the epoch of reionization.
Unfortunately, we show that these signals are actually only weakly correlated
and that cosmic variance dominates the error budget of any attempted detection.
We conclude that the detection of a cross-correlation peak at degree-size
angular scales is unlikely even with ideal experiments.

demonstrated in our pilot study to be an efficient selection algorithm for
finding red quasars -- we have obtained optical and infrared spectroscopy for
120 objects in a complete sample of 156 candidates from a sky area of 2716
square degrees. Consistent with our initial results, we find our selection
criteria -- J-K>1.7, R-K>4.0 -- yield a ~50% success rate for discovering
quasars substantially redder than those found in optical surveys. Comparison
with UVX- and optical color-selected samples shows that >~ 10% of the quasars
are missed in a magnitude-limited survey. Simultaneous two-frequency radio
observations for part of the sample indicate that a synchrotron continuum
component is ruled out as a significant contributor to reddening the quasars'
spectra. We go on to estimate extinctions for our objects assuming their red
colors are caused by dust. Continuum fits and Balmer decrements suggest E(B-V)
values ranging from near zero to 2.5 magnitudes. Correcting the K-band
magnitudes for these extinctions, we find that for K <= 14.0, red quasars make
up between 25% and 60% of the underlying quasar population; owing to the
incompleteness of the 2MASS survey at fainter K-band magnitudes, we can only
set a lower limit to the radio-detected red quasar population of >20-30%.

application of Fermi-Frenet coordinates, we show that they allow covariant
inertial forces to be expressed in a simple and physically intuitive way.

reproducing the scale-free structure, the high clustering coefficient and the

considered. For a better characterization and modeling of such network, a
larger number of topological properties must be considered. In this work, we
present a sound multivariate statistical approach, including feature spaces and
multivariate statistical analysis (especially canonical projections), in order
to characterize several Internet models while considering a larger set of
relevant measurements. We apply such a methodology to determine, among nine
complex networks models, which are those most compatible with the real Internet

measurements. We conclude that none of the considered models can reproduce the

I demonstrate the extent to which available experimental data in

in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions. For hadron-nucleus
collisions, a theoretical estimate based on a parton energy loss model tested
in lepton-nucleus collisions shows a large effect on mid-rapidity hadrons at
fixed target experiments. At RHIC energy, the effect is large for negative
rapidity hadrons, but mild at midrapidity. This final state cold hadron
quenching needs to be taken into account in jet tomographic analysis of the
medium created in nucleus-nucleus collisions.

K-theory has been added, including a decomposition formula and examples with
non trivial twisting. The title has been changed accordingly. To appear in
TAMS | null | null | null | math.AT math.AG | null | In this paper we present a model to calculate the stringy product on twisted
orbifold K-theory of Adem-Ruan-Zhang for abelian complex orbifolds.
In the first part we consider the non-twisted case on an orbifold presented
as the quotient of a manifold acted by a compact abelian Lie group. We give an
explicit description of the obstruction bundle, we explain the relation with
the product defined by Jarvis-Kaufmann-Kimura and, via a Chern character map,
with the Chen-Ruan cohomology, and we explicitely calculate the stringy product
for a weighted projective orbifold.
In the second part we consider orbifolds presented as the quotient of a
manifold acted by a finite abelian group and twistings coming from the group
cohomology. We show a decomposition formula for twisted orbifold K-theory that
is suited to calculate the stringy product and we use this formula to calculate
two examples when the group is $(\integer/2)^3$.

formation at geothermal hot springs | 12 pages, 6 figures | null | null | null | nlin.PS cond-mat.soft physics.geo-ph | null | A dynamical theory of geophysical precipitation pattern formation is
presented and applied to irreversible calcium carbonate (travertine)
deposition. Specific systems studied here are the terraces and domes observed
at geothermal hot springs, such as those at Yellowstone National Park, and
speleothems, particularly stalactites and stalagmites. The theory couples the
precipitation front dynamics with shallow water flow, including corrections for
turbulent drag and curvature effects. In the absence of capillarity and with a
laminar flow profile, the theory predicts a one-parameter family of steady
state solutions to the moving boundary problem describing the precipitation
front. These shapes match well the measured shapes near the vent at the top of
observed travertine domes. Closer to the base of the dome, the solutions
deviate from observations, and circular symmetry is broken by a fluting
pattern, which we show is associated with capillary forces causing thin film
break-up. We relate our model to that recently proposed for stalactite growth,
and calculate the linear stability spectrum of both travertine domes and
stalactites. Lastly, we apply the theory to the problem of precipitation
pattern formation arising from turbulent flow down an inclined plane, and
identify a linear instability that underlies scale-invariant travertine terrace
formation at geothermal hot springs.

CXOM82 J095550.2+694047 (=X41.4+60) and CXOM82 J095551.1+694045 (=X42.3+59),
which are unresolved by XMM-Newton. We revisited the two XMM-Newton
observations of M82 and analyzed the surface brightness profiles using the
known Chandra source positions. We show that the quasi-periodic oscillations
(QPOs) detected with XMM-Newton originate from X41.4+60, the brightest X-ray
source in M82. Correcting for the contributions of the unresolved sources, the
QPO at a frequency of 55.8+/-1.3 mHz on 2001 May 06 had a fractional rms
amplitude of 32%, and the QPO at 112.9+/-1.3 mHz on 2004 April 21 had an
amplitude of 21%. The QPO frequency may possibly be correlated with the source
flux, similar to the type C QPOs in XTE 1550-564 and GRS 1915+105, but at
luminosities two orders of magnitude higher. X42.3+59, the second brightest
source in M82, displayed a strikingly high flux of 1.4E-11 ergs/cm^2/s in the
2-10 keV band on 2001 May 6. A seven-year light curve of X42.3+59 shows extreme
variability over a factor of 1000; the source is not detected in several
Chandra observations. This transient behavior suggests accretion from an
unstable disk. If the companion star is massive, as might be expected in the
young stellar environment, then the compact object would likely be an IMBH.

undertaking? | Submitted to journal, currently under review | PLoS ONE, 4(3), 2009 | 10.1371/journal.pone.0004939. | null | q-bio.QM math.DS q-bio.MN | null | With the advent of high-throughput profiling methods, interest in reverse
engineering the structure and dynamics of biochemical networks is high.
Recently an algorithm for reverse engineering of biochemical networks was
developed by Laubenbacher and Stigler. It is a top-down approach using time
discrete dynamical systems. One of its key steps includes the choice of a term
order. The aim of this paper is to identify minimal requirements on data sets
to be used with this algorithm and to characterize optimal data sets. We found
minimal requirements on a data set based on how many terms the functions to be
reverse engineered display. Furthermore, we identified optimal data sets, which
we characterized using a geometric property called "general position".
Moreover, we developed a constructive method to generate optimal data sets,
provided a codimensional condition is fulfilled. In addition, we present a
generalization of their algorithm that does not depend on the choice of a term
order. For this method we derived a formula for the probability of finding the
correct model, provided the data set used is optimal. We analyzed the
asymptotic behavior of the probability formula for a growing number of
variables n (i.e. interacting chemicals). Unfortunately, this formula converges
to zero as fast as r^(q^n), where q is a natural number and 0<r<1. Therefore,
even if an optimal data set is used and the restrictions in using term orders
are overcome, the reverse engineering problem remains unfeasible, unless
prodigious amounts of data are available. Such large data sets are
experimentally impossible to generate with today's technologies.

(for the Pierre Auger Collaboration) | Measurement of Aerosols at the Pierre Auger Observatory | Contribution to the 30th International Cosmic Ray Conference, Merida
Mexico, July 2007; 4 pages, 4 figures | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | The air fluorescence detectors (FDs) of the Pierre Auger Observatory are
vital for the determination of the air shower energy scale. To compensate for
variations in atmospheric conditions that affect the energy measurement, the
Observatory operates an array of monitoring instruments to record hourly
atmospheric conditions across the detector site, an area exceeding 3,000 square
km. This paper presents results from four instruments used to characterize the
aerosol component of the atmosphere: the Central Laser Facility (CLF), which
provides the FDs with calibrated laser shots; the scanning backscatter lidars,
which operate at three FD sites; the Aerosol Phase Function monitors (APFs),
which measure the aerosol scattering cross section at two FD locations; and the
Horizontal Attenuation Monitor (HAM), which measures the wavelength dependence
of aerosol attenuation.

has been devoted to the blow-up estimate, especially in two dimensions, for the
practical relevance to high stress concentration in fiber-reinforced elastic
composites. In this paper, we establish optimal estimates for the electric
field associated with the distance between two spherical conductors in
$n-${dimensional spaces for $n \geq 2$}. {The novelty of these estimates is
that they explicitly describe the dependency of the blow-up rate on the
geometric parameters: the radii of the conductors.}

the gap between the maximum entropy of ordinary matter and that of black holes.
Using curved space, we construct configurations with entropy greater than their
area in Planck units. These configurations have pathological properties and we
refer to them as monsters. When monsters are excluded we recover the entropy
bound on ordinary matter $S < A^{3/4}$. This bound implies that essentially all
of the microstates of a semiclassical black hole are associated with the growth
of a slightly smaller black hole which absorbs some additional energy. Our
results suggest that the area entropy of black holes is the logarithm of the
number of distinct ways in which one can form the black hole from ordinary
matter and smaller black holes, but only after the exclusion of monster states.

represents the ground state of neutral matter at moderate densities are open
questions. We use two realistic effective quark models, the three-flavor
Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model and the modified quark-meson coupling model, to
describe the neutron star matter. After constructing possible hybrid equations
of state (EOSes) with unpaired or color superconducting quark phase, we
systematically discuss the observational constraints of neutron stars on the
EOSes. It is found that the neutron star with pure quark matter core is
unstable and the hadronic phase with hyperons is denied, while hybrid EOSes
with two-flavor color superconducting phase or unpaired quark matter phase are
both allowed by the tight and most reliable constraints from two stars Ter 5 I
and EXO 0748-676. And the hybrid EOS with unpaired quark matter phase is
allowed even compared with the tightest constraint from the most massive pulsar
star PSR J0751+1807. Therefore, we conclude that the ground state of neutral
matter at moderate densities is in deconfined quark phase likely.

acquire non-zero vacuum expectation values, which implies the spontaneous
breakdown of translational invariance. In this phase, various physical
quantities obey clear scaling behaviors in the continuum limit with a fixed
non-commutativity parameter theta, which provides evidence for a possible
continuum theory. In the weak coupling symmetric phase, the dispersion relation
involves a negative IR-singular term, which is responsible for the observed

$\gzz\leq |G'|^{2r}$. Motivated by the results of I. M. Isaacs in \cite{isa} we
show that if $G$ is capable then $\gz\leq |G'|^{4r}$. This answers a question
of L. Pyber. We prove that if $G$ is a capable $p$-group then the rank of
$G/\mathbf{Z}(G)$ is bounded above in terms of the rank of $G'$.

the crossing angle at the collision point and thus increase luminosity. The
beam operation with crab crossing has been done since February 2007. This is
the first experience with such cavities in colliders or storage rings. The crab
cavities have been working without serious issues. While higher specific
luminosity than the geometrical gain has been achieved, further study is
necessary and under way to reach the prediction of simulation.

transport is obtained from classical molecular dynamics. This is possible
because the heat baths are represented by random noises obeying quantum
Bose-Einstein statistics. The numerical method gives asymptotically exact
results in both the low-temperature ballistic transport regime and
high-temperature strongly nonlinear classical regime. The method can be thought
of as a semi-classical approximation to the quantum transport problem. A
one-dimensional quartic on-site model is used to demonstrate the crossover from
ballistic to diffusive thermal transport.

to a basis of symmetric functions involving ribbon Schur functions confirms the
validity of a Schur positivity conjecture due to McNamara. A further
application reveals that certain differences of products of Schubert classes
are Schubert positive.

lattice, with J/t=0.5 and 0.3. Our NLC results are compared with those obtained
from high-temperature expansions (HTE) and the finite-temperature Lanczos
method (FTLM). We show that there is a sizeable window in temperature where NLC
results converge without extrapolations whereas HTE diverges. Upon
extrapolations, the overall agreement between NLC, HTE, and FTLM is excellent
in some cases down to 0.25t. At intermediate temperatures NLC results are
better controlled than other methods, making it easier to judge the convergence
and numerical accuracy of the method.

with 20 residues whose native state is a single alpha helix. We use the CSAW
model (conditioned self-avoiding walk), which treats the protein molecule as a
chain in Brownian motion, with interactions that include hydrophobic forces and
internal hydrogen bonding. We find that large scale structures form before
small scale structures, and obtain the relevant relaxation times. We find that
helix nucleation occurs at two separate points on the protein chain. The
evolution of small and large scale structures involve different mechanisms.
While the former can be describe by rate equations governing the growth of
helical content, the latter is akin to the relaxation of an elastic solid.

Emission of Galaxies | 15 pages, 8 figures; accepted publication in ApJ | null | 10.1086/521070 | null | astro-ph | null | Using a sample of the $Spitzer$ SWIRE-field galaxies whose optical spectra
are taken from the Data Release 4 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we study
possible correlations between the Mid-InfraRed (MIR) dust emission from these
galaxies and both their metallicities and AGN activities. We find that both
metallicity and AGN activity are well correlated with the following ratios:
PAH(Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon)-to-star, VSG(Very Small Grain)-to-star and
PAH-to-VSG, which can be characterized by $\nu L_{\nu}[8\mu m({\rm dust})]/\nu
L_{\nu}[3.6\mu m]$, $\nu L_{\nu}[24\mu m]/\nu L_{\nu}[3.6\mu m]$, and$\nu
L_{\nu}[8\mu m({\rm dust})]/\nu L_{\nu}[24\mu m]$ respectively. We argue that
our MIR-metallicity correlation could be explained by either the amount of dust
(ongoing dust formation) or dust destruction (PAHs and VSGs could be destroyed
by hard and intense radiation fields), and that the MIR-AGN correlation could
arise due to either PAH destruction or an enhanced VSG continuum by the central
AGN.

contribution to the magnetic moment of the proton, sigma_{\pi N} term, strange
spin polarization, ratio of strange and non strange quark flavor distributions
which suggest that the nucleon contains a hidden strangeness component which is
contradictory to the naive constituent quark model. Chiral constituent quark
model with configuration mixing (\chiCQM_{{\rm config}}) is known to provide a
satisfactory explanation of the ``proton spin problem'' and related issues. In
the present work, we have extended the model to carry out the calculations for
the parameters pertaining to the strange quark content of the nucleon, for
example, the strange spin polarization \Delta s, strange components of the weak
axial vector form factors \Delta \Sigma and \Delta_8 as well as F and D,
strangeness magnetic moment of the proton \mu_p^s, the strange quark content in
the nucleon f_s coming from the \sigma_{\pi N} term, the ratios between strange
and non-strange quarks \frac{2 s}{u+d} and \frac{2 s}{\bar u+ \bar d},
contribution of strangeness to angular momentum sum rule etc.. Our result
demonstrates the broad consistency with the experimental observations as well
as other theoretical considerations.

Spectroscopic Observations | 17 pages, 28 figures, accepted for publication in PASJ | null | 10.1093/pasj/59.4.811 | null | astro-ph | null | We report our first results of photometric and spectroscopic observations for
Tycho's supernova remnant (SNR Tycho) to search for the companion star of a
type Ia supernova (SN Ia). From photometric observations using Suprime-Cam on
the Subaru Telescope, we have picked up stars brighter than 22 mag (in
$V$-band) for spectroscopy, which are located within a circular region with the
radius of 30" around the center of SNR Tycho. If the ejecta of young supernova
remnants, such as SNR Tycho, have a sufficient amount of Fe I, we should be
able to detect absorption lines at 3720 \AA and 3860 \AA associated with
transitions from the ground state of Fe I in the spectrum of the companion
star. To identify the companion star of a SN Ia using these characteristic
absorption lines of Fe I, we made optical low-resolution spectroscopy of their
targets using FOCAS on the Subaru Telescope. In our spectroscopic observations,
we obtained spectra of 17 stars in the SNR Tycho region and compare them with
template stellar spectra. We detect significant absorption lines from two stars
at 3720 \AA. Since widths of their absorption lines are broad, it is likely
that the detected absorptions are due to Fe I in the expanding ejecta of SNR
Tycho. However, none of stars exhibits a clear red wing in the observed
profiles of the absorption, though a star in the background of the SNR should
show it. Hence, we suggest another interpretation that the detected absorption
lines might be caused by the peculiarity of stars. A star named Tycho(E) has
the absorption line at 3720 \AA and its projected position is close to the
center of SNR Tycho. Based on our observations, Tycho(E) is a new candidate as
the companion star of Tycho's supernova.

alternative to the NFW profile, focusing on applications to lens modelling of
clusters. Given an underlying Sersic dark matter profile, we study whether an
NFW profile can provide an acceptable fit to strong lensing constraints in the
form of single or multiple measured Einstein radii. We conclude that although
an NFW profile that fits the lensing constraints can be found in many cases,
the derived parameters may be biased. In particular, we find that for n~2,
which corresponds to massive clusters, the mass at r_200 of the best fit NFW is
overestimated (by a factor of ~2) and the concentration is very low (c~2). The
differences are important enough to warrant the inclusion of Sersic profile for
future analysis of strong lensing clusters.

Phys. 101, 104115 (2007) | 10.1063/1.2733744 | null | cond-mat.stat-mech cond-mat.mtrl-sci | null | In the paper, the description of the dielectric and ferroelectric properties
of BaTiO_3 single crystals using Landau thermodynamic potential is addressed.
Our results suggest that when using the sixth-power free energy expansion of
the thermodynamic potential, remarkably different values of the fourth-power
coefficient, \beta (the coefficient of P^4_i terms), are required to adequately
reproduce the nonlinear dielectric behavior of the paraelectric phase and the
electric field induced ferroelectric phase, respectively. In contrast, the
eighth-power expansion with a common set of coefficients enables a good
description for both phases at the same time. These features, together with the
data available in literature, strongly attest to the necessity of the
eighth-power terms in Landau thermodynamic potential of BaTiO_3. In addition,
the fourth-power coefficients, \beta and \xi (the coefficient of P^2_i P^2_j
terms), were evaluated from the nonlinear dielectric responses along [001],
[011], and [111] orientations in the paraelectric phase. Appreciable
temperature dependence was evidenced for both coefficients above T_C. Further
analysis on the linear dielectric response of the single domain crystal in the
tetragonal phase demonstrated that temperature dependent anharmonic
coefficients are also necessary for an adequate description of the dielectric
behavior in the ferroelectric phase. As a consequence, an eighth-power
thermodynamic potential, with some of the anharmonic coefficients being
temperature dependent, was proposed and compared with the existing potentials.
In general, the potential proposed in this work exhibits a higher quality in
reproducing the dielectric and ferroelectric properties of this prototypic
ferroelectric substance.

analyses requiring background predictions in multi-jet environments, as shown
when validating the method by predicting the background from $W$+jets in \ttbar

and a limit is set using a fourth generation quark model to quantify the

calculation of the $b'$ cross section, $b'$ quark masses below 268 $\gev/c^2$
are excluded at 95% confidence level.

Confirmation of the Octupole Order | 4 pages, 4 figures | null | 10.1143/JPSJ.76.093702 | null | cond-mat.str-el | null | We have performed a single crystal neutron scattering experiment on

Below the phase transition temperature 1.5 K of phase IV, weak but distinct
superlattice reflections at the scattering vector (h/2,h/2,l/2) (h, l = odd
number) have been observed by neutron scattering for the first time. The
intensity of the superlattice reflections is stronger for high scattering
vectors, which is quite different from the usual magnetic form factor of
magnetic dipoles. This result directly evidences that the order parameter of
phase IV has a complex magnetization density, consistent with the recent
experimental and theoretical prediction in which the order parameter is the
magnetic octupoles Tbeta with Gamma5 symmetry of point group Oh. Neutron
scattering experiments using short wavelength neutrons, as done in this study,
could become a general method to study the high-rank multipoles in f electron
systems.

presence of inversion symmetry, while $Q$ vector is likely to be perpendicular
to the magnetic field in the absence of inversion symmetry. We also clarify
that $d+f$-wave pairing is favored and the hetero spin triplet $f$-wave state
is present in the FFLO state unlike state in the superconductors only with the
Rashba type spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) originating from the broken inversion
symmetry. The triplet $f$-wave state is enhanced by magnetic field and the

Astronomy & Astrophysics | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077466 | null | astro-ph | null | The current generation of X-ray observatories like Chandra allows studies
with very fine spatial details. It is now possible to resolve X-ray point
sources projected into the cluster diffuse emission and exclude them from the
analysis to estimate the ``correct'' X-ray observables. In order to verify the
incidence of point sources on the cluster thermal emission and to evaluate the
impact of their non-thermal emission on the determination of cluster
properties, we used a sample of 18 high-z (0.25 < z < 1.01) clusters from the
Chandra archive. We performed a detailed analysis of the cluster properties and
compared the changes observed in the X-ray observables, like temperature and
luminosity or their inter-relation, when one keeps the point sources in the
analysis. The point sources projected into the cluster extended emission affect
the estimates of cluster temperature or luminosity considerably (up to 13% and
17% respectively). These percentages become even larger for clusters with z >
0.7 where temperature and luminosity increase up to 24% and 22%, respectively.
Thus the point sources should be removed to correctly estimate the cluster
properties. However the inclusion of the point sources does not impact
significantly the slope and normalization of the L-T relationship since for
each cluster the correction to be applied to T and L produces a moderate shift
in the L-T plane almost parallel to the best-fit of the ``correct'' L-T
relation.

analysis is based on the observation of one radial mode, one rotationally split
l = 1 triplet and three components of a rotationally split l = 2 quintuplet for
which the m-values were well identified by spectroscopy. We identify the radial
mode as fundamental, the triplet as p_1 and the quintuplet as g_1. Our NLTE
abundance analysis results in a metallicity and CNO abundances in full
agreement with the most recent updated solar values. With X \in [0.71,0.7211]
and Z \in [0.009,0.015], and using the Asplund et al. (2005) mixture but with a
Ne abundance about 0.3 dex larger (Cunha et al. 2006), the matching of the
three independent modes, enables us to deduce constrained ranges for the mass
(M = 8.2 +/- 0.3 Msun) and central hydrogen abundance (X_c = 0.38 +/- 0.02) of
theta Oph and to prove the occurrence of core overshooting (alpha_ov = 0.44 +/-
0.07). We also derive an equatorial rotation velocity of 29 +/- 7 km/s.
Moreover, we show that the observed non-equidistance of the l=1 triplet can be
reproduced by second order effects of rotation. Finally, we show that the
observed rotational splitting of two modes cannot rule out a rigid rotation
model.

three samples of hydrogenated tetrahydrofuran-water clathrates, containing
either H2 at different para/ortho concentrtion, or HD. By a refined analysis of
the data, we are able to assign the spectral bands to rotational and
center-of-mass translational transitions of either para- or ortho-H2. The H2
molecule rotates almost freely, while performing a translational motion
(rattling) in the nanometric-size cage, resulting a paradigmatic example of
quantum dynamics in a non-harmonic potential well. Both the H2 rotational
transition and the fundamental of the rattling transition split into triplets,
having different separation. The splitting is a consequence of a substantial
anisotropy of the environment with respect to the orientation of the molecule
in the cage, in the first case, or with respect to the center-of-mass position
inside the cage, in the second case. The values of the transition frequencies
and band intensities have been quantitatively related to the details of the
interaction potential between H2 and the water molecules, with a very good
agreement.

Lett. 99, 244101 (2007) | 10.1103/PhysRevLett.99.244101 | null | cond-mat.stat-mech | null | We study directed transport in a classical deterministic dissipative system.
We consider the generic case of mixed phase space and show that large ratchet
currents can be generated thanks to the presence, in the Hamiltonian limit, of
transporting stability islands embedded in the chaotic sea. Due to the
simultaneous presence of chaos and dissipation the stationary value of the
current is independent of initial conditions, except for initial states with
very small measure.

Astronomy & Astrophysics. Corrected typos | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077467 | null | astro-ph | null | In this paper we re-visit the observational relation between X-ray luminosity
and temperature for high-z galaxy clusters and compare it with the local L_X-T
and with theoretical models. To these ends we use a sample of 17 clusters
extracted from the Chandra archive supplemented with additional clusters from
the literature, either observed by Chandra or XMM-Newton, to form a final
sample of 39 high redshift (0.25 < z < 1.3) objects. Different statistical
approaches are adopted to analyze the L_X-T relation. The slope of the L_X-T
relation of high redshift clusters is steeper than expected from the
self-similar model predictions and steeper, even though still compatible within
the errors, than the local L_X-T slope. The distant cluster L_X-T relation
shows a significant evolution with respect to the local Universe: high-z
clusters are more luminous than the local ones by a factor ~2 at any given
temperature. The evolution with redshift of the L_X-T relation cannot be
described by a single power law nor by the evolution predicted by the
self-similar model. We find a strong evolution, similar or stronger than the
self-similar model, from z = 0 to z <0.3 followed by a much weaker, if any,
evolution at higher redshift. The weaker evolution is compatible with
non-gravitational models of structure formation. According to us a
statistically significant sample of nearby clusters (z < 0.25) should be
observed with the current available X-ray telescopes to completely exclude
observational effects due to different generation detectors and to understand
this novel result.

the outburst mechanism in young stars and their role in star formation and disk
evolution. Our work is aimed at investigating the properties of the recent
outburst of V1647 Ori. Using optical and mid infrared long slit spectroscopy we
monitored V1647 Ori in outburst between February 2004 and January 2006. The
optical spectrum is characterized by Halpha and Hbeta in P-Cygni profile and by
many weak FeI and FeII emission lines. Short timescale variability was measured
in the continuum and line emission. On January 2006 we detected for the first
time forbidden emission lines ([OI], [SII] and [FeII]). These lines are likely
produced by an Herbig-Haro object driven by V1647 Ori. The mid infrared the
spectrum of V1647 Ori is flat and featureless at all epochs. The SED changed
drastically: the source was much redder in the early outburst than in the final
phase. The magnitude rise and the SED of V1647 Ori resembles that of a FUor
while the duration and recurrence of the outburst resemble that of a EXor. The
optical spectrum is clearly distinct from either the absorption line spectrum
of a FUor or the T Tauri-like spectrum of an EXor. Our data are consistent with
a disk instability event which led to an increase of the mass accretion rate.
The data also suggest the presence of a circumstellar envelope around the
star+disk system. The peculiar N band spectrum might be explained by dust
sublimation in the outer layers of the disk. The presence of the envelope and
the outburst statistics suggest that these instability events occur only in a
specific stage of a Class I source (e.g. in the transition phase to an
optically visible star surrounded by a protoplanetary disk). We discuss the
outburst mechanisms in term of the thermal instability model.

the Casimir pressure between two parallel plates using a micromachined
oscillator. The equivalent pressure between the plates is obtained by means of
the proximity force approximation after measuring the force gradient between a
gold coated sphere and a gold coated plate. The data are compared with a new
theoretical approach to the thermal Casimir force based on the use of the
Lifshitz formula, combined with a generalized plasma-like dielectric
permittivity which takes into account interband transitions of core electrons.
The theoretical Casimir pressures calculated using the new approach are
compared with those computed in the framework of the previously used impedance
approach and also with the Drude model approach. The latter is shown to be
excluded by the data at a 99.9% confidence level within a wide separation range
from 210 to 620 nm. The level of agreement between the data and theoretical
approaches based on the generalized plasma model, or the Leontovich surface
impedance, is used to set stronger constraints on the Yukawa forces predicted
from the exchange of light elementary particles and/or extra-dimensional
physics. The resulting constraints are the strongest in the interaction region
from 20 to 86 nm with a largest improvement by a factor of 4.4 at 26 nm.

(CT) volume to a sparse set of intra-operative Ultra-Sound (US) slices. In the
context of percutaneous renal puncture, the aim is to transfer planning
information to an intra-operative coordinate system. The spatial position of
the US slices is measured by optically localizing a calibrated probe. Assuming
the reproducibility of kidney motion during breathing, and no deformation of
the organ, the method consists in optimizing a rigid 6 Degree Of Freedom (DOF)
transform by evaluating at each step the similarity between the set of US
images and the CT volume. The correlation between CT and US images being
naturally rather poor, the images have been preprocessed in order to increase
their similarity. Among the similarity measures formerly studied in the context
of medical image registration, Correlation Ratio (CR) turned out to be one of
the most accurate and appropriate, particularly with the chosen non-derivative
minimization scheme, namely Powell-Brent's. The resulting matching transforms
are compared to a standard rigid surface registration involving segmentation,
regarding both accuracy and repeatability. The obtained results are presented
and discussed.

single-particle states 2s1/2 and 1d3/2 in Ca isotopes, using non-relativistic
and relativistic mean field approaches. Both models give similar trends and it
is shown that this evolution is sensitive to the neutron shell structure, the
two states becoming more or less close depending on the neutron orbitals which
are filled. In the regions where the states get closer some parametrizations
predict an inversion between them. This inversion occurs near $^{48}$Ca as well
as very far from stability where the two states systematically cross each other
if the drip line predicted in the model is located far enough. We study in
detail the modification of the two single-particle energies by using the
equivalent potential in the Schroedinger-like Skyrme-Hartree-Fock equations.
The role played by central, kinetic and spin-orbit contributions is discussed.
We finally show that the effect of a tensor component in the effective
interaction considerably favors the inversion of the two proton states in
$^{48}$Ca.

suggested that chiral symmetry is approximately restored in excited hadrons at
zero temperature/density (effective symmetry restoration). If correct, this
implies that mass generation mechanisms and physics in excited hadrons is very
different as compared to the lowest states. One needs an alternative and
independent experimental information to confirm this conjecture. Using very
general chiral symmetry arguments it is shown that strict chiral restoration in
a given excited nucleon forbids its decay into the N \pi channel. Hence those
excited nucleons which are assumed from the spectroscopic patterns to be in
approximate chiral multiplets must only "weakly" decay into the N \pi channel,
(f_{N^*N\pi}/f_{NN\pi})^2 << 1. However, those baryons which have no chiral
partner must decay strongly with a decay constant comparable with f_{NN\pi}.
Decay constants can be extracted from the existing decay widths and branching
ratios. It turnes out that for all those well established excited nucleons
which can be classified into chiral doublets N_+(1440) - N_-(1535), N_+(1710) -
N_-(1650), N_+(1720) - N_-(1700), N_+(1680) - N_-(1675), N_+(2220) - N_-(2250),
N_+(?) - N_-(2190), N_+(?) - N_-(2600), the ratio is (f_{N^*N\pi}/f_{NN\pi})^2
~ 0.1 or much smaller for the high-spin states. In contrast, the only well
established excited nucleon for which the chiral partner cannot be identified
from the spectroscopic data, N(1520), has a decay constant into the N\pi
channel that is comparable with f_{NN\pi}. This gives an independent
experimental verification of the chiral symmetry restoration scenario.

observables, in particular multiplicity distributions, in various statistical
ensembles at finite volume. The method is based on Fourier analysis of the
grand canonical partition function. Taylor expansion of the generating function
is used to separate contributions to the partition function in their power in
volume. We employ Laplace's asymptotic expansion to show that any equilibrium
distribution of multiplicity, charge, energy, etc. tends to a multivariate
normal distribution in the thermodynamic limit. Gram-Charlier expansion allows
additionally for calculation of finite volume corrections. Analytical formulas
are presented for inclusion of resonance decay and finite acceptance effects
directly into the system partition function. This paper consolidates and
extends previously published results of current investigation into properties
of statistical ensembles.

species (unlike chain length, molecular architecture and/or chemical

inconsistent constitution of macromolecules proves very adverse in many cases.
An adequate fractionation of polydisperse polymers is therefore mandatory.
Very efficient means are available for analytical purposes. However, these
methods break down as soon as the required amount of product exceeds some ten
grams. In order to gain access to large enough quantities of sufficiently
uniform polymer samples, we have developed a special kind of extraction process
called Continuous Spin Fractiona-tion (CSF). The better soluble macromolecular
species are preferentially transferred from a feed phase (concentrated polymer
solution) into a pickup phase (solvent of tai-lored thermodynamic quality). The
main problem of the procedure lies in the high vis-cosities of reasonably
concentrated polymer solutions, impeding the attainment of ther-modynamic
equilibria. This hurdle could be cleared by means of spinning nozzles through
which the feed is pressed into the pickup phase. CSF can be implemented to any
soluble polymer and is likewise apt for the production of small and of large
amounts of polymer samples with the required uniformity. This contribution
explains how to customize CSF to the polymer of interest and presents a number
of typical ex-amples.

results on the high--density (HDA) and low-density amorphous (LDA) ice

characterised by two $Q$ regimes featuring different properties ($Q$ is the
modulus of the scattering vector defined as $Q =
4\pi\sin{(\Theta)}/\lambda_{\rm i}$ with $\Theta$ being half the scattering
angle and $\lambda_{\rm i}$ the incident neutron wavelength). The very low--$Q$
regime ($< 5\times 10^{-2}$ \AA $^{-1}$) is dominated by a Porod--limit
scattering. Its intensity reduces in the course of the HDA to LDA
transformation following a kinetics reminiscent of that observed in wide--angle
diffraction experiments. The small--angle neutron scattering formfactor in the
intermediate regime of $5 \times 10^{-2} < Q < 0.5$ \AA$^{-1}$ HDA and LDA
features a rather flat plateau. However, the HDA signal shows an ascending
intensity towards smaller $Q$ marking this amorphous structure as
heterogeneous. When following the HDA to LDA transition the formfactor shows a
pronounced transient excess in intensity marking all intermediate structures as
strongly heterogeneous on a length scale of some nano--meters.

When the scattering length is small compared to the trap length the system is
model independent: all potential models -- attractive, repulsive and zero-range
-- provide similar results. When the scattering length is large the attractive
model differs qualitatively from the repulsive and zero-range models. In this
regime the system with attractive potential becomes independent of the
scattering length, with both the energy and the condensate fraction converging
towards finite constants.

on the high-harmonic generation from four polyatomic molecules. Ethylene
(C$_2$H$_4$) serves as an example where orbital symmetry directly affects the
harmonic yield. We treat the case of methane (CH$_4$) to address the
high-harmonic generation resulting from a molecule with degenerate orbitals. To
this end we illustrate how the single orbital contributions show up in the
total high-harmonic signal. This example illustrates the importance of adding
coherently amplitude contributions from the individual degenerate orbitals.
Finally, we study the high-harmonic generation from propane (C$_3$H$_8$) and
butane (C$_4$H$_{10}$). These two molecules, being extended and far from
spherical in structure, produce harmonics with non-trivial orientational
dependencies. In particular, propane can be oriented so that very
high-frequency harmonics are favorized, and thus the molecule contains
prospects for the generation of UV attosecond pulses.

galaxy formation and evolution with particular attention to the case of
early-type galaxies. Cold gas clouds are described by the so-called sticky
particles algorithm. They can freely move throughout the hot ISM medium; stars
form within these clouds and the mass exchange among the three baryonic phases
(hot gas, cold clouds, stars) is governed by radiative and Compton cooling and
energy feedback by supernova (SN) explosions, stellar winds, and UV radiation.
We also consider thermal conduction, cloud-cloud collisions, and chemical
enrichment. Our model agrees with and improves upon previous studies on the
same subject. The results for the star formation rate are very promising and
agree with recent observational data on early-type galaxies. These models lend
further support to the revised monolithic scheme of galaxy formation, which has
recently been also strengthened by high redshift data leading to the so-called
downsizing and top-down scenarios.

nonlinear equations from relativistic quantum mechanics, involving the Dirac
operator. The solutions are found as critical points of an energy functional.
Contrary to the Laplacian appearing in the equations of nonrelativistic quantum
mechanics, the Dirac operator has a negative continuous spectrum which is not
bounded from below. This has two main consequences. First, the energy
functional is strongly indefinite. Second, the Euler-Lagrange equations are
linear or nonlinear eigenvalue problems with eigenvalues lying in a spectral
gap (between the negative and positive continuous spectra). Moreover, since we
work in the space domain R^3, the Palais-Smale condition is not satisfied. For
these reasons, the problems discussed in this review pose a challenge in the
Calculus of Variations. The existence proofs involve sophisticated tools from
nonlinear analysis and have required new variational methods which are now
applied to other problems.

spheroidal galaxies (dSphs), however whether or not they are authentic BSSs or
young stars has been a point of debate. To both address this issue and obtain a
better understanding of the formation of BSSs in different environments we have
analysed a sample of BSS candidates in two nearby Galactic dSphs, Draco and
Ursa Minor. We have determined their radial and luminosity distributions from
wide field multicolour imaging data extending beyond the tidal radii of both
galaxies.
BSS candidates are uniformly distributed through the host galaxy, whereas a
young population is expected to show a more clumpy distribution. Furthermore,
the observed radial distribution of BSSs, normalized to both red giant branch
(RGB) and horizontal branch (HB) stars, is almost flat, with a slight decrease
towards the centre. Such a distribution is at odds with the predictions for a
young stellar population, which should be more concentrated. Instead, it is
consistent with model predictions for BSS formation by mass transfer in
binaries (MT-BSSs). Such results, although not decisive, suggest that these
candidates are indeed BSSs and that MT-BSSs form in the same way in Draco and
Ursa Minor as in globular clusters. This favours the conclusion that Draco and
Ursa Minor are truly 'fossil' galaxies, where star formation ceased completely
more than 8 billion years ago.

(MHD) stellar winds coupled with disc-driven jets where the resistive and
viscous accretion disc is self-consistently described. The transmagnetosonic,
collimated MHD outflows are investigated numerically using the VAC code. Our
simulations show that the inner outflow is accelerated from the central object
hot corona thanks to both the thermal pressure and the Lorentz force. In our
framework, the thermal acceleration is sustained by the heating produced by the
dissipated magnetic energy due to the turbulence. Conversely, the outflow
launched from the resistive accretion disc is mainly accelerated by the
magneto-centrifugal force. We also show that when a dense inner stellar wind
occurs, the resulting disc-driven jet have a different structure, namely a
magnetic structure where poloidal magnetic field lines are more inclined
because of the pressure caused by the stellar wind. This modification leads to
both an enhanced mass ejection rate in the disc-driven jet and a larger radial
extension which is in better agreement with the observations besides being more
consistent.

0706.3313 | Konstantinos Drakakis | Konstantinos Drakakis, Rod Gow, Scott rickard | Parity properties of Costas arrays defined via finite fields | To appear in Advances in Mathematics of Communications | null | null | null | math.CO math.NT | null | A Costas array of order $n$ is an arrangement of dots and blanks into $n$
rows and $n$ columns, with exactly one dot in each row and each column, the
arrangement satisfying certain specified conditions. A dot occurring in such an
array is even/even if it occurs in the $i$-th row and $j$-th column, where $i$
and $j$ are both even integers, and there are similar definitions of odd/odd,
even/odd and odd/even dots. Two types of Costas arrays, known as Golomb-Costas
and Welch-Costas arrays, can be defined using finite fields. When $q$ is a
power of an odd prime, we enumerate the number of even/even odd/odd, even/odd
and odd/even dots in a Golomb-Costas array. We show that three of these numbers
are equal and they differ by $\pm 1$ from the fourth. For a Welch-Costas array
of order $p-1$, where $p$ is an odd prime, the four numbers above are all equal
to $(p-1)/4$ when $p\equiv 1\pmod{4}$, but when $p\equiv 3\pmod{4}$, we show
that the four numbers are defined in terms of the class number of the imaginary
quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p})$, and thus behave in a much less
predictable manner.
