Splittings and Three-Dimensional Systems | 15 pages with 9 pictures. Accepted by Int. J. of Bifurcation and
Chaos | null | 10.1142/S0218127407018233 | null | math.DS | null | The global behaviour of nonlinear systems is extremely important in control
and systems theory since the usual local theories will only give information
about a system in some neighbourhood of an operating point. Away from that
point, the system may have totally different behaviour and so the theory
developed for the local system will be useless for the global one.
In this paper we shall consider the analytical and topological structure of
systems on 2- and 3- manifolds and show that it is possible to obtain systems
with 'arbitrarily strange' behaviour, i.e., arbitrary numbers of chaotic
regimes which are knotted and linked in arbitrary ways. We shall do this by
considering Heegaard Splittings of these manifolds and the resulting systems
defined on the boundaries.

at high density and moderate temperature in the superconductive color flavor
locking phase. We compute the critical temperature $T_c$ as a function of the
baryonic chemical potential for the phase transition from the superconductive
state to the normal phase. We find that $T_c$ is higher by a factor 1.5 -2 in
comparison to the model containing no Polyakov loop. We also compute the
specific heat $C_v$ near the second order phase transition and we show that the
inclusion of the Polyakov loop does not change the value of the critical
exponent.

characteristic relaxation time constants may perturb the experiment which
cannot be considered at thermodynamic equilibrium. In this case, thermodynamics
of irreversible processes has to be taken into account and the calorimetric
measurements must be considered as dynamic. In a temperature modulated
experiment, such as ac-calorimetry, these non-equilibrium experiments give rise
to the notion of frequency dependent complex heat capacity. In this paper, it
is shown that for each irreversible process an experimental frequency dependent
complex heat capacity can be inferred. Furthermore, we demonstrate rigorously
that a same equality connects the imaginary part of these different complex
heat capacities with the entropy produced during these irreversible processes.
Finally, we claim that the presence of an imaginary part in the measured heat
capacity always indicates that a certain amount of heat does not participate to
the classical equilibrium heat capacity of the sample when measured over the
observation time scale.

significant contribution from post-CCSD(T) correlation effects. We derive a
gas-phase heat of formation for the phosphorus atom of $\Delta

plasma with considerable presence of dust particles and equilibrium cooling. We
have shown that the equilibrium expansion and cooling destabilize the radiation
condensation modes and the presence of dust particles enhances this effect. We
have examined our results in the context of ionized, dusty-plasma environments
such as those found in planetary nebulae (PNe). We show that due to the
non-static equilibrium and finite equilibrium cooling, small-scale localized
structures formed out of thermal instability, become transient, which agrees
with the observational results. The dust-charge fluctuation is found to heavily
suppress these instabilities, though in view of non-availability of convincing
experimental data, a definitive conclusion could not be made.

test corresponding results against available experimental data. Predictions are
made, employing various pion distribution amplitudes, for the azimuthal angle

the planned COMPASS experiment. QCD evolution is given particular attention in

from the convection zone it must pass through the partially ionised layers of
the lower atmosphere: the photosphere and the chromosphere. In such regions the
ion-neutral collisions lead to an increased resistivity for currents flowing
across magnetic field lines. This Cowling resistivity can exceed the Spitzer
resistivity by orders of magnitude and in 2.5D simulations has been shown to be
sufficient to remove all cross field current from emerging flux. Here we extend
this modelling into 3D. Once again it is found that the Cowling resistivity
removes perpendicular current. However the presence of 3D structure prevents
the simple comparison possible in 2.5D simulations. With a fully ionised
atmosphere the flux emergence leads to an unphysically low temperature region
in the overlying corona, lifting of chromospheric material and the subsequent
onset of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. Including neutrals removes the low
temperature region, lifts less chromospheric matter and shows no signs of the
Rayleigh-Taylor instability. Simulations of flux emergence therefore should
include such a neutral layer in order to obtain the correct perpendicular
current, remove the Rayleigh-Taylor instability and get the correct temperature
profile. In situations when the temperature is not important, i.e. when no
simulated spectral emission is required, a simple model for the neutral layer
is demonstrated to adequately reproduce the results of fully consistent
simulations.

with a problem of showing numerous graphical results. The limits of the screen
space and often opposite requirements from different users are the cause of the
infinite discussions between designers and users, but the source of this
ongoing conflict is not in the level of interface design, but in the basic
principle of current graphical output: user may change some views and details,
but in general the output view is absolutely defined and fixed by the
developer. Author was working for several years on the algorithm that will
allow eliminating this problem thus allowing stepping from designer-driven
applications to user-driven. Such type of applications in which user is
deciding what, when and how to show on the screen, is the dream of scientists
and engineers working on the analysis of the most complicated tasks. The new
paradigm is based on movable and resizable graphics, and such type of graphics
can be widely used not only for scientific and engineering applications.

semidefinite programs which are invariant under the action of a symmetry group.
The procedure is based on basic notions of representation theory of finite
groups. As an example we derive the block diagonalization of the Terwilliger
algebra of the binary Hamming scheme in this framework. Here its connection to
the orthogonal Hahn and Krawtchouk polynomials becomes visible.

Dialkyl-dithiophosphate (ZDTP) tribofilms measured by nanoindentation increase
versus applied pressure (Anvil effect) [1, 2]. The aim of this paper is to
demonstrate that, up to 8 GPa, this increase is a reversible phenomenon. A ZDTP
tribofilm has been produced on "AISI 52100" steel substrate using a
Cameron-Plint tribometer. After its formation, a hydrostatic pressure of about
8 GPa was applied during one minute on the tribofilm using a large radius steel
ball ("Brinell-like" test). Nanoindentation tests were performed with a
Berkovich tip on pads in order to measure and compare the mechanical properties
of the tribofilm inside and outside the macroscopic plastically deformed area.
Careful AFM observations have been carried out on each indent in order to take
into account actual contact area. No difference in elastic properties was
observed between the two areas: tribofilm modulus and pressure sensitivity are
the same inside and outside the residual hemispherical print. This demonstrates
that Anvil effect is a reversible phenomenon in the studied pressure range.

Rouan et al., is capable of achieving very high dynamical range imaging and was
studied in the context of the direct detection of extra-solar planets.
Achromatic four-quadrant phase mask is currently being developed for broadband
IR applications. AIMS: We report on laboratory and on-sky tests of a prototype
coronagraph in the visible. This prototype, the achromatic hybrid phase knife
coronagraph, was derived from the four-quadrant phase mask principle. METHODS:
The instrumental setup implementing the coronagraph itself was designed to
record the pre- and post-coronagraphic images simultaneously so that an
efficient real-time image selection procedure can be performed. We describe the
coronagraph and the associated tools that enable robust and repeatable
observations. We present an algorithm of image selection that has been tested
against the real on-sky data of the binary star HD80081 (* 38 Lyn). RESULTS
Although the observing conditions were poor, the efficiency of the proposed
method is proven. From this experiment, we derive procedures that can apply to
future focal instruments associating adaptive optics and coronagraphy,
targeting high dynamic range imaging in astronomy, such as detecting
extra-solar planets.

ballistic transport regime and show that the quantum oscillations of a weakly
pinned single scattering target results in a temperature- and bias-voltage
independent excess current at large bias voltages. This is a genuine effect on
transport that derives from an exponential reduction of electronic
backscattering in the elastic channel due to quantum delocalization of the
scatterer and from suppression of low-energy electron backscattering in the
inelastic channels caused by the Pauli exclusion principle. We show that both
the mass of the target and the frequency of its quantum vibrations can be
measured by studying the differential conductance and the excess current. We
apply our analysis to the particular case of a weakly pinned C60 molecule
encapsulated by a single-wall carbon nanotube and find that the discussed
phenomena are experimentally observable.

Grenoble 2007, ed. J. Bouvier | null | 10.1017/S1743921307009556 | null | astro-ph | null | I present and discuss a unified scheme for jet launching that is based on
stochastic dissipation of the accretion disk kinetic energy, mainly via shock
waves. In this scheme, termed thermally-launched jet model, the kinetic energy
of the accreted mass is transferred to internal energy, e.g., heat or magnetic
energy. The internal energy accelerates a small fraction of the accreted mass
to high speeds and form jets. For example, thermal energy forms a pressure
gradient that accelerates the gas. A second acceleration stage is possible
wherein the primary outflow stretches magnetic field lines. The field lines
then reconnect and accelerate small amount of mass to very high speeds. This
double-stage acceleration process might form highly relativistic jets from
black holes and neutron stars. The model predicts that detail analysis of
accreting brown dwarfs that launch jets will show the mass accretion rate to be
larger than 10^{-9}-10^{-8} Mo/year, which is higher than present claims in the
literature.

Agafonov (Russian Research Center "Kurchatov Institute") | Massless Wave States of Two-Fermion Systems | 20 pages, no figures | null | null | null | hep-th | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | It is known that in the ladder approximation the relativistic two-fermion
bound-state equation of Bethe and Salpeter has solutions corresponding to the
binding energy equal to the total mass of the particles. The study of these
massless states has been carried out only for the bound system at rest. Of
course, such composite boson can not be in the state of rest. But it is more
importantly that this approach for the massless boson can not be interpreted as
the limiting case of a nonzero mass system because the phase velocity of the
boson wave must equal to the speed of light. Using the Bethe-Salpeter equation
in the ladder approximation, we have obtained the wave equation for the
massless bound states of two fermions with equal masses and the electromagnetic
interaction between them. Neglecting retardation of the interaction, solutions
corresponded to the stationary wave states of the composite boson, have been
found. The boson wave function can be represented as an infinite, straight
thread, the transverse radius of which is more than the Compton wavelength of
the fermion. Two energy branches of the bosons with quantized energies have
been determined. The appearance of these branches is due to the strong
renormalization of the fine structure constant for the massless states.

two-phase (gas+dust) Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) code, which is
non-self-gravitating and locally isothermal. The code follows the three
dimensional distribution of dust in a protoplanetary disk as it interacts with
the gas via aerodynamic drag. In this work, we present the evolution of a disk
comprising 1% dust by mass in the presence of an embedded planet for two
different disk configurations: a small, minimum mass solar nebular (MMSN) disk
and a larger, more massive Classical T Tauri star (CTTS) disk. We then vary the
grain size and planetary mass to see how they effect the resulting disk
structure. We find that gap formation is much more rapid and striking in the
dust layer than in the gaseous disk and that a system with a given stellar,
disk and planetary mass will have a different appearance depending on the grain
size and that such differences will be detectable in the millimetre domain with
ALMA. For low mass planets in our MMSN models, a gap can open in the dust disk
while not in the gas disk. We also note that dust accumulates at the external
edge of the planetary gap and speculate that the presence of a planet in the
disk may facilitate the growth of planetesimals in this high density region.

quark-model NN interaction. The G-matrix is generated in the recent
energy-independent procedure of the quark-model NN interaction with the
continuous prescription for intermediate spectra, by assuming an appropriate
Fermi momentum k_F=1.2 fm^-1. The n alpha RGM interaction kernels are evaluated
with explicit treatments of the nonlocality and momentum dependence of
partial-wave G-matrix components. The momentum dependence of the G-matrix
components is different for each of the nucleon-exchange and interaction types.
Without introducing any artificial parameters except for k_F, the central and
spin-orbit components of the n alpha Born kernel are found to have reasonable
strengths under the assumption of a rigid translationally invariant shell-model
wave function of the alpha-cluster. The characteristic behaviors of three
different exchange terms, corresponding to knockout, heavy-particle pickup and
nucleon-rearrangement processes, are essentially the same between the case of
previous local effective NN forces and the case of nonlocal G-matrix NN
interactions.

technique in order to construct exact ground state exchange correlation
functionals for models of correlated electron systems coupled to external
reservoirs. The technique is applied to the M-site resonant level model. We
calculate its exact Kubo-conductance, which is available within DMRG, and
compare to the single-particle conductance obtained from Kohn-Sham energies and
orbitals of the exact ground state density functional theory (DFT). It is found
that the position of transport resonances is reproduced essentially exactly,
while deviations in the level broadening can be less than 1% and do not exceed
10%. Our findings lend strong support to a recently held point of view, namely
that approximations in the ground state functionals used in DFT based transport
calculations can lead to drastic errors in transport calculations while
exchange correlation contributions to the induced effective potential tend to
be less significant.

on sloshing | null | 10.1086/592211 | null | astro-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | We present new observational results of NGC 7619, an elliptical galaxy with a
prominent X-ray tail and a dominant member of the Pegasus group. With Chandra
and XMM-Newton observations, we confirm the presence of a long X-ray tail in
the SW direction; moreover, we identify for the first time a sharp
discontinuity of the X-ray surface brightness in the opposite (NE) side of the
galaxy. The density, temperature and pressure jump at the NE discontinuity
suggest a Mach number ~1, corresponding to a galaxy velocity of ~500 km s-1,
relative to the surrounding hot gas. Spectral analysis of these data shows that
the Iron abundance of the hot gaseous medium is much higher (1-2 solar) near
the center of NGC 7619 and in the tail extending from the core than in the
surrounding regions (< 1/2 solar), indicating that the gas in the tail is
originated from the galaxy. The possible origin of the head-tail structure is
either on-going ram-pressure stripping or sloshing. The morphology of the
structure is more in line with a ram pressure stripping phenomenon, while the
position of NGC 7619 at the center of the Pegasus I group, and its dominance,
would prefer sloshing.

effect in single-walled metallic carbon nanotubes due to the presence of a
superconducting substrate. An unconventional double-gap situation can arise in
the two bands for nanotubes of large radius wherein the tunneling is (almost)
symmetric in the two sublattices. In such a case, a proximity effect can take
place in the symmetric band below a critical experimentally-accessible Coulomb
interaction strength in the nanotube. Furthermore, due to interactions in the
nanotube, the appearance of a BCS gap in this band stabilizes superconductivity
in the other band at lower temperatures. We also discuss the scenario of highly
asymmetric tunneling and show that this case too supports double-gap
superconductivity.

two spatial dimension, we conjecture that the order parameter, suitable for
characterizing 2D fermionic insulating state, is the disorder operator, usually
known in the context of statistical transformation. Namely, the change of the
phase of the disorder operator along a closed loop measures the particle
density accommodating inside this loop. Thus, identifying this (doped) particle
density with the dual counterpart of the magnetic induction in 2D SC, we can
naturally introduce the disorder operator as the dual order parameter of 2D
insulators. The disorder operator has a branch cut emitting from this
``vortex'' to the single infinitely far point. To test this conjecture against
an arbitrary 2D lattice models, we have chosen this branch cut to be compatible
with the periodic boundary condition and obtain a general form of its
expectation value for non-interacting metal/insulator wavefunction, including
gapped mean-field order wavefunction. Based on this expression, we observed
analytically that it indeed vanishes for a wide class of band metals in the
thermodynamic limit. In insulating states, on the other hand, it is quantified
by the localization length or the real-valued gauge invariant 2-from dubbed as
the quantum metric tensor.

at about Hc2/100 as if the vortices were moving 100 times faster than expected.
An attempt to account for this behavior by a combination of sheared planar
vortex flow obeying the BS rule and the quasi-particle c axis conductivity
between the Josephson coupled superconducting planes is only partially
successful. In particular it is unable to account for the saturation feature
which occurs in both optimally and underdoped samples in the low temperature

construction of which follows from a "Quantization commutes with reduction"-

of general constructions in the category of affine symplectic manifolds and

reveals a dense molecular gas with an extent of ~ 0.1 pc, which is a complex of
two envelopes associated with class I sources Ced110 IRS4 and IRS11 and a very
young object Cha-MMS1. The other two class I sources in this region, IRS6 and
NIR89, are located outside the clump and have no extended HCO+ emission. HCO+
abundance is calculated to be 2.6 x 10^{-10} for MMS1 and 3.4 x 10^{-9} for
IRS4, which are comparable to the reported value for other young sources.
Bipolar outflows from IRS4 and IRS6 are detected in our 12CO(J=3-2) map. The
outflow from IRS4 seems to collide with Cha-MMS1. The outflow has enough
momentum to affect gas motion in MMS1, although no sign has been detected to
indicate that a triggered star formation has occurred.

the early-formed system and their event-by-event fluctuations. We test a
variety of models: the conventional wounded nucleon model, a model admixing
binary collisions to the wounded nucleons, a model with hot spots, as well as
the hot-spot model where the deposition of energy occurs with a superimposed
probability distribution. We look in detail at the so-called participant
multipole moments, obtained by an averaging procedure where in each event the
system is translated to its center of mass and aligned with the major principal
axis of the ellipse of inertia. Quantitative comparisons indicate substantial
relative effects for eccentricity in variants of Glauber models. On the other
hand, the dependence of the scaled standard deviation of the participant
eccentricity on the chosen model is weak. For all models the values range from
about 0.5 for the central collisions to about 0.3-0.4 for peripheral
collisions, both for the gold-gold and copper-copper collisions. They are
dominated by statistics and change only by 10-15% from model to model. We
provide an approximate analytic expansion for the multipole moments and their
fluctuations given in terms of the fixed-axes moments. For central collisions
and in the absence of correlations it gives the simple formula for the scaled
standard deviation of the participant eccentricity: sqrt(4/pi-1). Similarly, we
obtain expansions for the radial profiles of the multipole distributions. We
investigate the relevance of the shape-fluctuation effects for jet quenching
and find them important only for very central events. Finally, we argue how
smooth hydro leads to the known result v_4 ~ v_2^2, and further to the
prediction Delta v_4/v_4 = 2 Delta v_2/v_2.

probe to explore CP violation in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
(MSSM). The scalar/pseudo-scalar mixing is considered along with CP violation
entering through the Higgs-sfermion-sfermion couplings, with and without light
sparticles. The impact of a light stop on the decay width and Branching Ratio
(BR) is established through a detailed study of the amplitude of the process H1
--> gamma.gamma. The other sparticles have little influence even when they are
light. With a suitable combination of other MSSM parameters, a light stop can
change the BR by more than 50 % with a CP-violating phase phi_mu ~ 90 deg.,
while the change is almost nil with a heavy stop.

magnetization precession in ferromagnetic Ga0.965Mn0.035As. At temperatures
below ~40 K we observe coherent oscillations of the local Mn spins, triggered
by an ultrafast photoinduced reorientation of the in-plane easy axis. The
amplitude saturation of the oscillations above a certain pump intensity
indicates that the easy axis remains unchanged above ~TC/2. We find that the
observed magnetization precession damping (Gilbert damping) is strongly
dependent on pump laser intensity, but largely independent on ambient
temperature. We provide a physical interpretation of the observed light-induced
collective Mn-spin relaxation and precession.

precision numerical simulations. Stretched exponential forms are obtained when
the non-equilibrium steady state is stable. We derive sub-leading corrections
and emphasize their relevance. In marginal stability cases, power-law behaviors
arise, with exponents obtained as the roots of transcendental equations. We
also consider some simple BGK (Bhatnagar, Gross, Krook) models, driven by
similar heating devices, to test the robustness of our predictions.

operators and measures take values in uniform commutative monoids (a
commutative monoid with a uniformity making the binary operation of the monoid
uniformly continuous). It describes the operators to which the theory can be
applied and the finitely-additive measures they generate. Operators satisfying
the conditions will be called ``Riesz integrals''. Given an underlying ``Riesz
system'', it is shown that every Riesz integral generates a certain kind of
finitely additive measure called here a ``Riesz measure''. The correspondence
between Riesz integrals and Riesz measures is a bijection.
A straightforward calculation shows that if an operator has such a
representation, then it must have the Hammerstein property. For topological
vector spaces, the theory yields necessary and sufficient conditions for
operators with the Hammerstein property to be Riesz integrals. We note that
uniform commutative monoids arise naturally when considering set-valued
functions, and that the axioms of a Riesz system rule out certain spaces of
infinitely differentiable functions.

theory and scalar QED with space-time topology $\mathbb{R}^{3,1} \times S^{1}$.
We calculate the effective action due to integrating out heavy KK modes. We
construct generalized RGE's for the couplings with respect to the
compactification scale $M$. With the solutions to the RGE's we find the
$M$-scale dependence of the effective theory due to higher dimensional quantum
effects. We find that the heavy modes decouple in $\phi^{4}$ theory, but do not
decouple in scalar QED. This is due to the zero mode of the 5-th component
$A_{5}$ of the 5-d gauge field. Because $A_{5}$ is a scalar under 4-d Lorentz
transformations, there is no gauge symmetry protecting it from getting mass and
$A_{5}^{4}$ interaction terms after loop corrections. In light of these
unpleasant features, we explore $S^{1}/\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ compactifications, which
eliminate $A_{5}$, allowing for the heavy modes to decouple at low energies. We
also explore the possibility of decoupling by including higher dimensional
operators. It is found that this is possible, but a high degree of fine tuning
is required.

because of the way that different schemes parameterize the physical aspects of
a configuration, it is not alway clear what a given set of initial data
actually represents. This is especially important for quasiequilibrium data
constructed using the conformal thin-sandwich approach. Most initial-data
studies have focused on identifying data sets that represent binaries in
quasi-circular orbits. In this paper, we consider initial-data sets
representing equal-mass black holes binaries in eccentric orbits. We will show
that effective-potential techniques can be used to calibrate initial data for
black-hole binaries in eccentric orbits. We will also examine several different
approaches, including post-Newtonian diagnostics, for measuring the
eccentricity of an orbit. Finally, we propose the use of the ``Komar-mass
difference'' as a useful, invariant means of parameterizing the eccentricity of
relativistic orbits.

propagation direction in the interface plane is much larger, in comparison to
those for the existence of Dyakonov waves at the planar interface of an
isotropic dielectric material and a columnar thin film.

value which is significantly lower than the one expected from Gaussian
simulations using the WMAP best-fit cosmological model, at a significance level
of 98.7 per cent. This result is even more prominent if we consider only the
north ecliptic hemisphere (99.8 per cent). Different analyses have been
performed in order to identify a possible origin for this anomaly. In
particular we have studied the behaviour of single radiometers and single year
data as well as the effect of residual foregrounds and 1/f noise, finding that
none of these possibilities can explain the low value of the variance. We have
also tested the effect of varying the cosmological parameters, finding that the
estimated CMB variance tends to favour higher values of $n_s$ than the one of
the WMAP best-fit model. In addition, we have also tested the consistency
between the estimated CMB variance and the actual measured CMB power spectrum
of the WMAP data, finding a strong discrepancy. A possible interpretation of
this result could be a deviation from Gaussianity and/or isotropy of the CMB.

modulus to bending stiffness increases. Strong bending stiffness favors smooth,
nearly spherical shapes, while weak bending stiffness leads to a sharply
faceted icosahedral shape. Based on the phonon spectrum of a simplified
mass-and-spring model of the shell, we interpret the transition from smooth to
faceted as a soft-mode transition. In contrast to the case of a disclinated
planar network where the transition is sharply defined, the mean curvature of
the sphere smooths the transitition. We define elastic susceptibilities as the
response to forces applied at vertices, edges and faces of an icosahedron. At
the soft-mode transition the vertex susceptibility is the largest, but as the
shell becomes more faceted the edge and face susceptibilities greatly exceed
the vertex susceptibility. Limiting behaviors of the susceptibilities are
analyzed and related to the ridge-scaling behavior of elastic sheets. Our
results apply to virus capsids, liposomes with crystalline order and other
shell-like structures with icosahedral symmetry.

encapsulated in the potential energy landscapes on which the atoms move - an
observation that suggests that the essentials of the dynamics ought to be
determined by the geometry of those landscapes. But what are the principal
geometric features that control the long-time dynamics? We suggest that the key
lies not in the local minima and saddles of the landscape, but in a more global
property of the surface: its accessible pathways. In order to make this notion
more precise we introduce two ideas: (1) a switch to a new ensemble that
removes the concept of potential barriers from the problem, and (2) a way of
finding optimum pathways within this new ensemble. The potential energy
landscape ensemble, which we describe in the current paper, regards the maximum
accessible potential energy, rather than the temperature, as a control
variable. We show here that while this approach is thermodynamically equivalent
to the canonical ensemble, it not only sidesteps the idea of barriers, it
allows us to be quantitative about the connectivity of a landscape. We
illustrate these ideas with calculations on a simple atomic liquid and on the
Kob-Andersen model of a glass-forming liquid, showing, in the process, that the
landscape of the Kob-Anderson model appears to have a connectivity transition
at the landscape energy associated with its mode-coupling transition. We turn
to the problem of finding the most efficient pathways through potential energy
landscapes in our companion paper.

Minor corrections. Version accepted by PRD | Phys.Rev.D76:085013,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.085013 | null | astro-ph hep-ph | null | We can understand many recently-discovered features of flavor evolution in
dense, self-coupled supernova neutrino and antineutrino systems with a simple,
physical scheme consisting of two quasi-static solutions. One solution closely
resembles the conventional, adiabatic single neutrino
Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) mechanism, in that neutrinos and
antineutrinos remain in mass eigenstates as they evolve in flavor space. The
other solution is analogous to the regular precession of a gyroscopic pendulum
in flavor space, and has been discussed extensively in recent works. Results of
recent numerical studies are best explained with combinations of these
solutions in the following general scenario: (1) Near the neutrino sphere, the
MSW-like many-body solution obtains. (2) Depending on neutrino vacuum mixing
parameters, luminosities, energy spectra, and the matter density profile,
collective flavor transformation in the nutation mode develops and drives
neutrinos away from the MSW-like evolution and toward regular precession. (3)
Neutrino and antineutrino flavors roughly evolve according to the regular
precession solution until neutrino densities are low. In the late stage of the
precession solution, a stepwise swapping develops in the energy spectra of
$\nu_e$ and $\nu_\mu/\nu_\tau$. We also discuss some subtle points regards
adiabaticity in flavor transformation in dense neutrino systems.

possibility arises, therefore, of a connection between cosmic rays and Global
Warming. If true, the implications would be very great. We have examined this
claim to look for evidence to corroborate it. So far we have not found any and
so our tentative conclusions are to doubt it. Such correlations as appear are
more likely to be due to the small variations in solar irradiance, which, of
course, correlate with cosmic rays. We estimate that less than 15% of the
11-year cycle warming variations are due to cosmic rays and less than 2% of the
warming over the last 35 years is due to this cause.

many-body system depends in large measure on how direct the connection is to
the system's dynamics. In this paper we show that, within what we call the
potential energy landscape ensemble, it is possible to make direct connections
between the geometry of the landscape and the long-time dynamical behaviors of
systems such as supercooled liquids. We show, in particular, that the onset of
slow dynamics in such systems is governed directly by the lengths of their
geodesics - the shortest paths through their landscapes within the special
ensemble. The more convoluted and labyrinthine these geodesics are, the slower
that dynamics is. Geodesics in the landscape ensemble have sufficiently
well-defined characteristics that is straightforward to search for them
numerically, a point we illustrate by computing the geodesic lengths for an
ordinary atomic liquid and a binary glass-forming atomic mixture. We find that
the temperature dependence of the diffusion constants of these systems,
including the precipitous drop as the glass-forming system approaches its
mode-coupling transition, is predicted quantitatively by the growth of the
geodesic path lengths.

has been proposed for cases where the solution is known to be (almost) sparse.
One way to obtain the minimizer of such an $\ell_1$ penalized functional is via
an iterative soft-thresholding algorithm. We propose an alternative
implementation to $\ell_1$-constraints, using a gradient method, with
projection on $\ell_1$-balls. The corresponding algorithm uses again iterative
soft-thresholding, now with a variable thresholding parameter. We also propose
accelerated versions of this iterative method, using ingredients of the
(linear) steepest descent method. We prove convergence in norm for one of these
projected gradient methods, without and with acceleration.

about 0.7 cm^{-1}, which interferes with its use for $0.1 cm^{-1}<\Delta\nu <

http://www.cofc.edu/~fragilep/tilted.html for movies and high-resolution
figures | null | 10.1086/521092 | null | astro-ph | null | This paper presents a continuation of our efforts to numerically study
accretion disks that are misaligned (tilted) with respect to the rotation axis
of a Kerr black hole. Here we present results of a global numerical simulation
which fully incorporates the effects of the black hole spacetime as well as
magnetorotational turbulence that is the primary source of angular momentum
transport in the flow. This simulation shows dramatic differences from
comparable simulations of untilted disks. Accretion onto the hole occurs
predominantly through two opposing plunging streams that start from high
latitudes with respect to both the black-hole and disk midplanes. This is due
to the aspherical nature of the gravitational spacetime around the rotating
black hole. These plunging streams start from a larger radius than would be
expected for an untilted disk. In this regard the tilted black hole effectively
acts like an untilted black hole of lesser spin. Throughout the duration of the
simulation, the main body of the disk remains tilted with respect to the
symmetry plane of the black hole; thus there is no indication of a
Bardeen-Petterson effect in the disk at large. The torque of the black hole
instead principally causes a global precession of the main disk body. In this
simulation the precession has a frequency of $3 (M_\odot/M)$ Hz, a value
consistent with many observed low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations.
However, this value is strongly dependent on the size of the disk, so this
frequency may be expected to vary over a large range.

representation of the degenerate double affine Hecke algebra (DAHA), i.e. the
trigonometric Cherednik algebra, is reducible. Namely, we show that c is a
reducibility point for the polynomial representation of the trigonometric
Cherednik algebra for a root system R if and only if it is a reducibility point
for the rational Cherednik algebra for the Weyl group of some root subsystem R'
of R of the same rank; such subsystems for any R are given by the well known
Borel-de Siebenthal algorithm. This result has been proved by Cherednik using a
case-by-case method.

Electroweak Interactions and Unified Theories, La Thuile, Aosta Valley,
Italy, March 2007 | null | null | null | hep-ph | null | We study the consequences of the gravitino decay into dark matter. We suppose
that the lightest neutralino is the main component of dark matter. In our
framework gravitino is heavy enough to decay before Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
starts. We consider a model coming from a five dimensional supergravity
compactified on $S^1/Z_2$ with gravity in the bulk and matter localized on
tensionless branes at the orbifold fixed points. We require that the dark
matter, which is produced thermally and in the decay of Kaluza-Klein modes of
gravitino, has an abundance compatible with observation. We deduce from our
model that there are curves of constraints between the size of the
extra-dimension and the reheating temperature of the universe after inflation.
This talk is based on hep-ph/0702183 to be published in \PRD.

hopping ($t$) and repulsive interactions ($V$). This model directly maps on to
an easy-axis $S=1/2$ XXZ model on the kagome lattice and is also related, at
large $V/t$, to a quantum dimer model on the triangular lattice. Using quantum
Monte Carlo (QMC) numerics, we map out the phase diagram of this model at
half-filling. At T=0, we show that this model exhibits a superfluid phase at
small $V/t$ and an insulating phase at large $V/t$, separated by a continuous
quantum phase transition at $V_c/t \approx 19.8$. The insulating phase at T=0
appears to have no conventional broken symmetries, and is thus a uniform Mott
insulator (a `spin liquid' in magnetic language). We characterize this
insulating phase as a uniform $Z_2$ fractionalized insulator from the
topological order in the ground state and estimate its vison gap. Consistent
with this identification, there is no apparent thermal phase transition upon
heating the insulator. The insulating phase instead smoothly crosses over into
the high temperature paramagnet via an intermediate cooperative paramagnetic
regime. We also study the superfluid-to-normal thermal transition for $V <
V_c$. We find that this is a Kosterlitz-Thouless transition at small $V/t$ but
changes to a first order transition for $V$ closer to $V_c$. We argue that this
first order thermal transition is consistent with the presence of a nearby
$Z_2$ insulating ground state obtained from the superfluid ground state by
condensing double vortices.

Singlet | 39 pages, 11 figures, 2 tables | Phys.Rev.D77:035005,2008 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.77.035005 | MAD-PH-07-1492 | hep-ph | null | Gauge singlet extensions of the Standard Model (SM) scalar sector may help
remedy its theoretical and phenomenological shortcomings while solving
outstanding problems in cosmology. Depending on the symmetries of the scalar
potential, such extensions may provide a viable candidate for the observed
relic density of cold dark matter or a strong first order electroweak phase
transition needed for electroweak baryogenesis. Using the simplest extension of
the SM scalar sector with one real singlet field, we analyze the generic
implications of a singlet-extended scalar sector for Higgs boson phenomenology
at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We consider two broad scenarios: one in
which the neutral SM Higgs and singlet mix and the other in which no mixing
occurs and the singlet can be a dark matter particle. For the first scenario,
we analyze constraints from electroweak precision observables and their
implications for LHC Higgs phenomenology. For models in which the singlet is
stable, we determine the conditions under which it can yield the observed relic
density, compute the cross sections for direct detection in recoil experiments,
and discuss the corresponding signatures at the LHC.

Due To Conservative Mass Transfer | 16 pages, 8 figures, Accepted by The Astrophysical Journal | null | 10.1086/520911 | null | astro-ph | null | We investigate the secular evolution of the orbital semi-major axis and
eccentricity due to mass transfer in eccentric binaries, assuming conservation
of total system mass and orbital angular momentum. Assuming a delta function
mass transfer rate centered at periastron, we find rates of secular change of
the orbital semi-major axis and eccentricity which are linearly proportional to
the magnitude of the mass transfer rate at periastron. The rates can be
positive as well as negative, so that the semi-major axis and eccentricity can
increase as well as decrease in time. Adopting a delta-function mass-transfer
rate of $10^{-9} M_\sun {\rm yr}^{-1}$ at periastron yields orbital evolution
timescales ranging from a few Myr to a Hubble time or more, depending on the
binary mass ratio and orbital eccentricity. Comparison with orbital evolution
timescales due to dissipative tides furthermore shows that tides cannot, in all
cases, circularize the orbit rapidly enough to justify the often adopted
assumption of instantaneous circularization at the onset of mass transfer. The
formalism presented can be incorporated in binary evolution and population
synthesis codes to create a self-consistent treatment of mass transfer in
eccentric binaries.

standard model extended by the seesaw mechanism, and in its low-energy
effective theory with the dimension-five Majorana mass operator. We classify
the basic invariants, discuss non-trivial relations between them, and determine
the independent invariants which characterize all the information in the mixing
matrices in a basis-independent way. We also discuss the restrictions on the
allowed ranges for the mixing phases, and on the rephasing invariants, which
follow from a discrete invariance of the Majorana mass matrix.
