percolation considering Virasoro representations with no enlarged or extended
symmetry algebra. The representations we take to generate fusion are countably
infinite in number. The ensuing fusion rules are quasi-rational in the sense
that the fusion of a finite number of these representations decomposes into a
finite direct sum of these representations. The fusion rules are commutative,
associative and exhibit an sl(2) structure. They involve representations which
we call Kac representations of which some are reducible yet indecomposable
representations of rank 1. In particular, the identity of the fusion algebra is
a reducible yet indecomposable Kac representation of rank 1. We make detailed
comparisons of our fusion rules with the recent results of Eberle-Flohr and
Read-Saleur. Notably, in agreement with Eberle-Flohr, we find the appearance of
indecomposable representations of rank 3. Our fusion rules are supported by
extensive numerical studies of an integrable lattice model of critical
percolation. Details of our lattice findings and numerical results will be
presented elsewhere.

Chiapella | Newton's 2nd Law and the Physics of Dance | pdf 12 pages 5 figures submitted to American Journal of Physics | null | null | null | physics.ed-ph | null | In teaching the physical sciences, a significant challenge lies in the
student's tendency to consider the scientific world and the "real" world as
separate. For example, Newton's 1st Law of Motion states that an object in
motion remains in motion in a straight line unless acted on by an external
force. However, our experience tells us that most objects keep moving only as
long as someone or something pushes on them. One key to understanding physics
is the ability to abstract the "law" from a reality which also includes
friction and other effects. In this article we describe a college course for
non-science majors, The Physics of Dance. The central theme of this course is
the personalization of the physics of motion by making each student the object.
With this approach we give students not only scientific tools to measure and
understand but personal involvement to experience forces and motion. This
combination provides a bridge that connects the science to reality.

Comp | Journal of Symbolic Computation, 2008, V.43, no.6--7, P. 406--421. | null | null | math.QA math.RA | null | We distinguish a class of irreducible finite representations of conformal Lie
(super)algebras. These representations (called universally defined) are the
simplest ones from the computational point of view: a universally defined
representation of a conformal Lie (super)algebra $L$ is completely determined
by commutation relations of $L$ and by the requirement of associative locality
of generators. We describe such representations for conformal superalgebras
$W_n$, $n\ge 0$, with respect to a natural set of generators. We also consider
the problem for superalgebras $K_n$. In particular, we find a universally
defined representation for the Neveu--Schwartz conformal superalgebra $K_1$ and
show that the analogues of this representation for $n\ge 2$ are not universally
defined.

exponential behaviour of covering numbers. The corresponding results are also
proved for non-Gaussian symmetric stable processes, both for the cases of
critically small and critically large entropy. The results extensively use the
classical chaining technique; at the same time they are meant to explore the
limits of this method.

dispersions of stars in the regions of the young (about 2-4 Myr-old) open
clusters NGC 2244 (the central cluster in the Monoceros R2 association) and NGC
6530 (the dominant cluster in the Sgr OB1 association) from photographic plate
material obtained at Shanghai Astronomical Observatory, with time baselines of
34 and 87 years, respectively. Both clusters show clear evidence of mass
segregation, but they do not exhibit any significant velocity-mass (or,
equivalently, a velocity-luminosity) dependence. This provides strong support
for the suggestion that the observed mass segregation is -- at least partially
-- due to the way in which star formation has proceeded in these complex
star-forming regions (``primordial'' mass segregation). Based on arguments
related to the clusters' published initial mass functions, in conjunction with
our new measurements of their internal velocity dispersions (35 and 8 km/s for
NGC 2244 and NGC 6530, respectively), we provide strong arguments in favor of
the dissolution of NGC 2244 on very short time-scales, while we speculate that
NGC 6530 may be more stable against the effects of internal two-body
relaxation. However, this latter object may well be destroyed by the strong
tidal field prevalent at its location in the Galactic plane in the direction of
the Galactic Center.

cluster | 11 pages, 12 figures, accepted for publication in A&A | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077631 | null | astro-ph | null | Aim: To extend the investigations of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs)
beyond the well studied Fornax and Virgo clusters. Methods: We measured
spectroscopic redshifts of about 400 compact object candidates with 19.2 < V <
22.4 mag in the central region of the Centaurus galaxy cluster (d=43Mpc), using
VIMOS@VLT. The luminosity range of the candidates covers that of bright
globular clusters (GCs) and of UCDs in Fornax and Virgo. Results: We confirm
the cluster membership of 27 compact objects, covering an absolute magnitude
range -12.2 < M_V < -10.9 mag. We do not find counterparts to the two very
large and bright UCDs in Fornax and Virgo with M_V=-13.5 mag, possibly due to
survey incompleteness. The compact objects' distribution in magnitude and space
is consistent with that of the GC population. Their kinematics and spatial
distribution associate them to the central galaxies rather than to the overall
cluster potential. The compact objects have a mean metallicity consistent with
that of the metal-rich globular cluster sub-population. Compact objects with
high S/N spectra exhibit solar [alpha/Fe] abundances, consistent with typical
dwarf elliptical galaxy values and unlike galactic bulge globular clusters. HST
based size estimates for a sub-sample of eight compact objects reveal the
existence of one very large object with half-light radius r_h around 30 pc,
having M_V=-11.6 mag (~10^7 M_sun). This source shows super-solar [alpha/Fe]
abundances. Seven further sources are only marginally larger than typical GCs
with r_h in the range 4 to 10 pc. Conclusions: We consider the largest compact
object found to be the only bona-fide UCD detected in our study. In order to
improve our understanding of UCDs in Centaurus, a significant increase of our
survey completeness is necessary.

studied to understand the role of the barrier layer in the tunneling process -
a factor that has been largely overlooked until recently. Epitaxial oxide
junctions of highly spin polarized La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 and Fe3O4 electrodes with
magnetic NiMn2O4 (NMO) insulating barrier layers provide a magnetic tunnel
junction system in which we can probe the effect of the barrier by comparing
junction behavior above and below the Curie temperature of the barrier layer.
When the barrier is paramagnetic, the spin polarized transport is dominated by
interface scattering and surface spin waves; however, when the barrier is
ferrimagnetic, spin flip scattering due to spin waves within the NMO barrier
dominates the transport.

corrected. To appear in PRD | Phys.Rev.D76:024015,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.024015 | null | gr-qc hep-th math.DG | null | We demonstrate the existence of spherically-symmetric truly naked black holes
(TNBH) for which the Kretschmann scalar is finite on the horizon but some
curvature components including those responsible for tidal forces as well as
the energy density $\bar{\rho}$ measured by a free-falling observer are
infinite. We choose a rather generic power-like asymptotics for the metric
functions and analyze possible types of a horizon depending on the behavior of
curvature components in the free-falling frame. It is also shown in a general
case of distorted black holes that $\bar{\rho}$ and tidal forces are either
both finite or both infinite. The general approach developed in the article
includes previously found examples and, in particular, TNBHs with an infinite
area of a horizon. The fact that the detection of singularity depends on a
frame may be relevant for a more accurate definition of the cosmic censorship
conjecture. TNBHs may be considered as a new example of so-called non-scalar
singularities for which the scalar curvature invariants are finite but some
components of the Riemann tensor may diverge in certain frames.

independent of the strength of the Coulomb interactions. In the presence of
electron-hole symmetry the independence is exact.

(12/03/2007) 347 | null | null | cs.AR | null | This paper presents a solution to efficiently explore the design space of
communication adapters. In most digital signal processing (DSP) applications,
the overall architecture of the system is significantly affected by
communication architecture, so the designers need specifically optimized
adapters. By explicitly modeling these communications within an effective
graph-theoretic model and analysis framework, we automatically generate an
optimized architecture, named Space-Time AdapteR (STAR). Our design flow inputs
a C description of Input/Output data scheduling, and user requirements
(throughput, latency, parallelism...), and formalizes communication constraints
through a Resource Constraints Graph (RCG). The RCG properties enable an
efficient architecture space exploration in order to synthesize a STAR
component. The proposed approach has been tested to design an industrial data
mixing block example: an Ultra-Wideband interleaver.

three-parameter empirical neutrino mass formula through imposing a parameter

the known results for AdS_5/Z_k to AdS_3/Z_k case, and we proposed that the
AdS_3/Z_k decays into AdS_3/Z_k' with k' < k. From the bulk viewpoint, we
obtain a time-dependent gravity solution describing the decay of AdS orbifold
numerically. From the dual gauge theory viewpoint, we calculated the Casimir
energies of gauge theory vacua and it is found that their values are exactly
the same as the masses of dual geometries, even though they are in different
parameter regimes of 't Hooft coupling. We also consider AdS_5 orbifold. The
decay of AdS_5/Z_k is dual to the transition between the dual gauge theory
vacua on R_t x S^3/Z_k, parametrized by different holonomies along the
orbifolded spatial cycle. We constructed the instanton solutions describing the
transitions by making use of instanton solutions on R_t x S^2.

The instability manifests as rapid depletion of the condensate and conversion

such a system, and perform numerical modeling of the experiments using both a
mean-field and beyond mean-field approach. We compare our numerical results to
the experimental data, and find that the Gross-Pitaevskii equation is not able
to describe this experiment. Our beyond mean-field approach, known as the
truncated Wigner method, allows us to make quantitative predictions for the
processes of parametric growth and thermalization that are observed in the
laboratory, and we find good agreement with the experimental results.

outburst of RS Ophiuchi. We detect extended emission in both [O III] and [Ne V]
lines. In both lines, the remnant has a double ring structure. The E-W
orientation and total extent of these structures (580+-50 AU at d=1.6kpc) is
consistent with that expected due to expansion of emitting regions imaged
earlier in the outburst at radio wavelengths. Expansion at high velocity
appears to have been roughly constant in the E-W direction (v_{exp} = 3200+-300
km/s in the plane of the sky), with tentative evidence of deceleration N-S. We
present a bipolar model of the remnant whose inclination is consistent with
that of the central binary. The true expansion velocities of the polar
components are then v = 5600+-1100 km/s. We suggest that the bipolar morphology
of the remnant results from interaction of the outburst ejecta with a
circumstellar medium that is significantly denser in the equatorial regions of
the binary than at the poles. This is also consistent with observations of
shock evolution in the X-ray and the possible presence of dust in the infrared.
Furthermore, it is in line with models of the shaping of planetary nebulae with
close binary central systems, and also with recent observations relating to the
progenitors of Type Ia supernovae, for which recurrent novae are a proposed
candidate. Our observations also reveal more extended structures to the S and E
of the remnant whose possible origin is briefly discussed.

storage device. Its state can be set to any value in a certain (infinite) state
space, but in general every possible read operation yields only partial
information about the stored state.
The purpose of this paper is to initiate the study of a combinatorial
abstraction, called abstract storage device (ASD), which models deterministic
storage devices with the property that only partial information about the state
can be read, but that there is a degree of freedom as to which partial
information should be retrieved.
This concept leads to a number of interesting problems which we address, like
the reduction of one device to another device, the equivalence of devices,
direct products of devices, as well as the factorization of a device into
primitive devices. We prove that every ASD has an equivalent ASD with minimal
number of states and of possible read operations. Also, we prove that the
reducibility problem for ASD's is NP-complete, that the equivalence problem is
at least as hard as the graph isomorphism problem, and that the factorization
into binary-output devices (if it exists) is unique.

the holographic N=4 plasma represented by the planar AdS black hole. The
response of the system is given by exponentially decaying waves. The
corresponding complex wave numbers can be found by solving wave equations in
the AdS black hole background with infalling boundary conditions on the horizon
in an analogous way as in the calculation of quasinormal modes. The complex
momentum eigenvalues have an interpretation as poles of the retarded Green's
functions, where the inverse of the imaginary part gives an absorption length
$\lambda$. At zero frequency we obtain the screening length for a static field.
These are directly related to the glueball masses in the dimensionally reduced
theory. We also point out that the longest screening length corresponds to an
operator with non-vanishing R-charge and thus does not have an interpretation
as a QCD3 glueball.

assuming only the commutation relations between position and velocity. With
this minimal assumption, Feynman never supposed the existence of Hamiltonian or
Lagrangian formalism. In the present communication, we review the study of a
relativistic particle using ``Feynman brackets.'' We show that Poincar\'e's
magnetic angular momentum and Dirac magnetic monopole are the consequences of
the structure of the Lorentz Lie algebra defined by the Feynman's brackets.
Then, we extend these ideas to the dual momentum space by considering
noncommutative quantum mechanics. In this context, we show that the
noncommutativity of the coordinates is responsible for a new effect called the
spin Hall effect. We also show its relation with the Berry phase notion. As a
practical application, we found an unusual spin-orbit contribution of a
nonrelativistic particle that could be experimentally tested. Another practical
application is the Berry phase effect on the propagation of light in
inhomogeneous media.

is formed where solid, liquid, and gas meet. Above a critical speed $U_{cr}$, a
stationary contact line can no longer exist and the solid will eventually be
covered completely by a liquid film. Here we show that the bifurcation diagram
of this coating transition changes qualitatively, from discontinuous to
continuous, when decreasing the inclination angle of the plate. We show that
this effect is governed by the presence of capillary waves, illustrating that
the large scale flow strongly effects the maximum speed of dewetting.

so-called mode entanglement, analyzing the differences between different types
of particles in this context. We first discuss the role of coherent states in
such experiments, and we comment on the existence of coherent states in nature.
The discussion of coherent states naturally raises questions about the role of
particle statistics in this problem. Although the Pauli exclusion principle
precludes coherent states with a large number of fermionic particles, we find
that a large number of fermionic coherent states, each containing at most one
particle, can be used to achieve the same effect as a bosonic coherent state
for the purposes of this problem. The discussion of superselection rules arises
naturally in this context, because their applicability to a given situation
prohibits the use of coherent states. This limitation particularly affects the
scenario that we propose for detecting the mode entanglement of fermionic
particles.

interacting with a spin-bath, in the presence of a time-dependent magnetic
field is studied. The magnetic field is static along $\hat{z}$ direction and
oscillatory in the transverse plane. The transition probability and Rabi
oscillations between the spin-states of a single qubit is shown to depend on
the size of bath, the distribution of qubit-bath couplings and the initial bath
polarization. In contrast to the fast Gaussian decay for short times, the
polarization of the qubit shows an oscillatory power-law decay for long times.
The loss of entanglement for the maximally entangled two-qubit states, can be
controlled by tuning the frequency of the rotating field. The decay rates of
entanglement and purity for all the Bell-states are same when the qubits are
non-interacting, and different when they are interacting.

brief survey of the metric theory of filtrations, in particular, formulate the
standardness criterion and describe its connections with the scaled entropy and
the notion of a tower of measures.

sample of galaxies hosting low-luminosity quasistellar objects. An abundant
supply of gas is necessary to fuel both the active galactic nucleus and any
circum-nuclear starburst activity of QSOs.
We selected a sample of nearby low-luminosity QSO host galaxies that is free
of infrared excess biases. All objects are drawn from the Hamburg-ESO survey
for bright UV-excess QSOs, have DEC>-30 degrees and redshifts that do not
exceed z=0.06. The IRAM 30m telescope was used to measure the CO(1-0) and
CO(2-1) transition in parallel.
27 out of 39 galaxies in the sample have been detected. The molecular gas
masses of the detected sources range from 0.4E9 M_sun to 9.7E9 M_sun. We can
confirm that the majority of galaxies hosting low-luminosity QSOs are rich in
molecular gas. The properties of galaxies hosting brighter type I AGN and
circumnuclear starformation regions differ from the properties of galaxies with
fainter central regions. The overall supply of molecular gas and the spread of
the line width distribution is larger. When comparing the far-infrared with the
CO luminosities, the distribution can be separated into two different
power-laws: one describing the lower activity Seyfert I population and the
second describing the luminous QSO population. The separation in the
L_FIR/L'_CO behavior may be explainable with differing degrees of compactness
of the emission regions. We provide a simple model to describe the two
power-laws. The sample studied in this paper is located in a transition region
between the two populations.

a bath of localized spins is a subject of great fundamental and practical
interest, and is relevant for many solid-state qubit designs. Instead of
focusing on the the "central spin" (as is most often done), here we present a
detailed study of the dynamics of the nuclear spin bath in the Mn12-ac
single-molecule magnet, probed by NMR experiments down to very low temperatures
(T = 20 mK). We find that the longitudinal relaxation rate of the 55Mn nuclei
in Mn12-ac becomes roughly T-independent below T = 0.8 K, and can be strongly
suppressed with a longitudinal magnetic field. This is consistent with the
nuclear relaxation being caused by quantum tunneling of the molecular spin, and
we attribute the tunneling fluctuations to the minority of fast-relaxing
molecules present in the sample. The transverse nuclear relaxation is also
T-independent for T < 0.8 K, and can be explained qualitatively and
quantitatively by the dipolar coupling between like nuclei in neighboring
molecules. We also show that the isotopic substitution of 1H by 2H leads to a
slower nuclear longitudinal relaxation, consistent with the decreased tunneling
probability of the molecular spin. Finally, we demonstrate that, even at the
lowest temperatures, the nuclear spins remain in thermal equilibrium with the
lattice phonons, and we investigate the timescale for their thermal
equilibration. After a review of the theory of macroscopic spin tunneling in
the presence of a spin bath, we argue that most of our experimental results are
consistent with that theory, but the thermalization of the nuclear spins is
not.

dimensions has a finite width, so that it can be considered as a large array of
coupled chains. The finite transverse size of the system gives rise to a
discrete string of Fermi points, with respective electron fields that, due to
their mutual interaction, acquire anomalous scaling dimensions depending on the
point of the string. Using bosonization methods, we show that the anomalous
scaling dimensions vanish when the number of coupled chains goes to infinity,
implying the Fermi liquid behavior of a 2D system in that limit. However, when
the Fermi level is at the Van Hove singularity arising from the saddle points
of the 2D dispersion, backscattering and Cooper-pair scattering lead to the
breakdown of the metallic behavior at low energies. These interactions are
taken into account through their renormalization group scaling, studying in
turn their influence on the nonperturbative bosonization of the model. We show
that, at a certain low-energy scale, the anomalous electron dimension diverges
at the Fermi points closer to the saddle points of the 2D dispersion. The
d-wave superconducting correlations become also large at low energies, but
their growth is cut off as the suppression of fermion excitations takes place
first, extending progressively along the Fermi points towards the diagonals of
the 2D Brillouin zone. We stress that this effect arises from the vanishing of
the charge stiffness at the Fermi points, characterizing a critical behavior
that is well captured within our nonperturbative approach.

but produce shifts of the centroid energies. A renormalization of the Skyrme
interactions is required for approaches going beyond the mean field level.

satisfying the energy positivity condition an Unruh's detector moving with a

particle. But in a causal theory violating energy positivity, detection of a
field quanta occurs. We comment on the origin of this particle creation.

energetics extended, results unchanged | null | 10.1111/j.1365-2966.2008.13141.x | null | astro-ph | null | (Abridged) X-ray clusters are conventionally divided into two classes: "cool
core" (CC) clusters and "non-cool core" (NCC) clusters. Yet relatively little
attention has been given to the origins of this dichotomy and, in particular,
to the energetics and thermal histories of the two classes. We develop a model
for the entropy profiles of clusters starting from the configuration
established by gravitational shock heating and radiative cooling. At large
radii, gravitational heating accounts for the observed profiles and their
scalings well. However, at small and intermediate radii, radiative cooling and
gravitational heating cannot be combined to explain the observed profiles of
either type of cluster. The inferred entropy profiles of NCC clusters require
that material is preheated prior to cluster collapse in order to explain the
absence of low entropy (cool) material in these systems. We show that a similar
modification is also required in CC clusters in order to match their properties
at intermediate radii. In CC clusters, this modification is unstable, and an
additional process is required to prevent cooling below a temperature of a few
keV. We show that this can be achieved by adding a self-consistent AGN feedback
loop in which the lowest-entropy, most rapidly cooling material is heated so
that it rises buoyantly to mix with material at larger radii. The resulting
model does not require fine tuning and is in excellent agreement with a wide
variety of observational data. Some of the other implications of this model are
briefly discussed.

inequivalent chains. This model is obtained by a twist (\theta) deformation of
the ladder and interpolates between the isotropic ladder (\theta=0) and the
SU(2) ferromagnetic Kondo necklace model (\theta=\pi). We show that the ground
state in the (\theta,J_\perp) plane has a finite string order parameter
characterising the Haldane phase. Twisting the chain introduces a new energy
scale, which we interpret in terms of a Suhl-Nakamura interaction. As a
consequence we observe a crossover in the scaling of the spin gap at weak
coupling from \Delta/J_\| \propto J_\perp/J_\| for \theta < \theta_c \simeq
8\pi/9 to \Delta/J_\| \propto (J_\perp/J_\|)^2 for \theta > \theta_c. Those
results are obtained on the basis of large scale Quantum Monte Carlo
calculations.

weighting of a plantar pressure-based, tongue-placed tactile biofeedback for
controlling posture could be subject to inter-individual variability. To
achieve this goal, 60 young healthy adults were asked to stand as immobile as
possible with their eyes closed in two conditions of No-biofeedback and
Biofeedback. Centre of foot pressure (CoP) displacements were recorded using a
force platform. Overall, results showed reduced CoP displacements in the
Biofeedback relative to the No-biofeedback condition, evidencing the ability of
the central nervous system to efficiently integrate an artificial
plantar-based, tongue-placed tactile biofeedback for controlling posture during
quiet standing. Results further showed a significant positive correlation
between the CoP displacements measured in the No-biofeedback condition and the
decrease in the CoP displacements induced by the use of the biofeedback. In
other words, the degree of postural stabilization appeared to depend on each
subject's balance control capabilities, the biofeedback yielding a greater
stabilizing effect in subjects exhibiting the largest CoP displacements when
standing in the No-biofeedback condition. On the whole, by evidencing a
significant inter-individual variability in sensory weighting of an additional
tactile information related to foot sole pressure distribution for controlling
posture, the present findings underscore the need and the necessity to address
the issue of inter-individual variability in the field of neuroscience.

Patton | Tunneling into low-dimensional and strongly correlated conductors | Completely rewritten and updated | null | null | null | cond-mat.str-el cond-mat.mes-hall | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | A general nonperturbative theory of the low-energy electron propagator is
developed and used to calculate the single-particle density of states in a
variety of systems. This method involves the decoupling of the
electron-electron interaction through a Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation,
followed by a saddle-point approximation of the remaining functional integral.
The final expression is found to be the tunneling analog of the infrared
catastrophe that occurs in the x-ray edge problem; here, the host system
responds to the potential produced by the abrupt addition of an electron during
a tunneling event. This response can lead to a suppression in the tunneling
density of states near the Fermi energy. This method is adaptable to lattice or
continuum models of any dimensionality, with or without translational
invariance. When applied, the exact density of states is obtained for the
Tomonaga-Luttinger model, and the pseudogap of a fractional quantum Hall fluid
is recovered.

we study the orientation of shape and angular momentum of galaxy-size dark

perpendicular to the direction that joins the centre of the halo and the centre
of the void. This alignment has been found in spiral galaxies around voids
using galaxy redshift surveys. We measure for the first time the strength of
this alignment, showing how it falls off with increasing distance to the centre
of the void. We also confirm the correlation between the intensity of this
alignment and the halo mass. The analysis of the orientation of the halo main
axes confirms the results of previous works. Moreover, we find a similar
alignment for the baryonic matter inside dark matter haloes, which is much
stronger in their inner parts.

electrode overlapped by a normal metal contact through a thin oxide barrier,
measurements of the tunnel current in magnetic field can probe persistent
currents in the ring. The effect manifests itself as periodic oscillations of
the tunnel current through the junction at a fixed bias voltage as function of
perpendicular magnetic field. The magnitude of oscillations depends on bias
point. It reaches maximum at energy eV which is close to the superconducting
gap and decreases with increase of temperature. The period of oscillations dF
in units of magnetic flux is equal neither to h/e nor to h/2e, but
significantly exceeds these values for larger loop circumferences. The
phenomenon is explained by formation of metastable states with large vorticity.
The pairing potential and the superconducting density of states are
periodically modulated by the persistent currents at sub-critical values
resulting in corresponding variations of the measured tunnel current.

a new uniform formula for the number of edges in the noncrossing partition

properties (age, distance, reddening and detailed chemical abundances) of a
large sample of old open clusters, we present here the metal abundance and the
abundance ratios of light (C, N, O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Ti) and heavier (Cr,
Mn, Ni, Ba, Eu) elements in the galactic open clusters NGC 6253 and NGC 6791.
We performed spectrum synthesis of selected lines on high resolution spectra of
four red clump stars in NGC 6253, taken with the UVES and FEROS spectrographs.
We also determined abundances of the same elements for four red clump stars in
NGC 6791, observed with SARG, for which we had derived the atmospheric
parameters and the iron, carbon and oxygen abundances in a previous paper
(Gratton et al. 2006). The average metallicity of NGC 6253 is [Fe/H]=+0.46 (rms
= 0.03 dex, systematic error = 0.08 dex), obtained by extensive spectral
synthesis of Fe lines. This intermediate age cluster closely resembles the old
open cluster NGC 6791, as far as the chemical composition is concerned. C, N, O
do not show any significant abundance scatter; they are underabundant with
respect to the solar values both in NGC 6253 and NGC 6791. We also find no
evident star-to-star scatter in any of the elements measured in both clusters,
with the possible exception of Na in NGC 6791. The two clusters show very
similar abundances, except for Mg, overabundant in NGC 6791 and not in NGC
6253. Both have solar scaled alpha-elements abundances. We have compared our
abundance ratios with literature values for disk giants and dwarfs and bulge
giants, finding a general good agreement with the run of elemental ratios with
[Fe/H] of disk objects.

evolution of galaxies and clusters | null | 10.1086/587460 | null | astro-ph | null | One of the possible origins of short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) is merging of
compact binaries, and the effect of large kick velocity is a signature that can
be used as an observational test for this hypothesis. Intracluster SGRBs that
escaped from a host galaxy in a galaxy cluster are interesting in this context,
since they would escape more easily by cluster tidal force, and would have
brighter afterglow luminosity by dense intracluster gas, than those in general
field galaxies. Here we calculate the escape fraction of compact binaries from
their host galaxies in a galaxy cluster, and discuss some observational
implications. We found that the escape fraction strongly depends on the nature
of dark matter subhalos associated with member galaxies. If the amount of dark
matter around member galaxies is not large and the gravitational potential for
an escaping binary is determined mostly by stellar mass, most of SGRBs should
escape and be observed as hostless, which is a much higher fraction than those
in the field. Hence, statistics of intracluster SGRBs could give important
information about the dark matter distribution in galaxy clusters, as well as
hints for the origin of SGRBs.

in A&A | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077841 | null | astro-ph | null | 4U 1705-44 is one of the best studied type I X-ray burster and atoll sources.
Since it covers a wide range in luminosity (from a few to 50 x 10^{36} erg
s^{-1}) and shows clear spectral state transitions, it represents a good
laboratory to test the accretion models proposed for atoll sources. We analysed
the energy spectrum accumulated with BeppoSAX observations (43.5 ksec) in
August 2000 when the source was in a soft spectral state. The continuum of the
wide band energy spectrum is well described by the sum of a blackbody
(kT_{bb}~0.56 keV) and a Comptonized component (seed-photon temperature kT_W~1
keV, electron temperature kT_e~2.7 keV, and optical depth ~11). A hard tail was
detected at energies above ~25 keV. The latter can be modeled by a power law
having a photon index ~2.9 which contributes ~11% of the total flux in the
range 0.1-200 keV. A broad emission line, possibly from a relativistic
accretion disk, models the feature in the Fe K line region of the spectrum.
This is the first time that a high energy tail has been observed during a soft
state of the source.

by the combination of the flatness condition needed for the tuning of the
cosmological constant and the stability condition that is necessary to avoid
unstable modes. We find that the existence of such a viable vacuum implies a
condition involving the curvature tensor for the scalar geometry and the charge
and mass matrices for the vector fields. Moreover, for given curvature, charges
and masses satisfying this constraint, the vector of F and D auxiliary fields
defining the Goldstino direction is constrained to lie within a certain domain.
The effect of vector multiplets relative to chiral multiplets is maximal when
the masses of the vector fields are comparable to the gravitino mass. When the
masses are instead much larger or much smaller than the gravitino mass, the
effect becomes small and translates into a correction to the effective
curvature. We finally apply our results to some simple classes of examples, to
illustrate their relevance.

clusters, filaments, sheets and voids, the Cosmic Web. For the understanding of
its dynamical and hierarchical history it is crucial to identify objectively
its complex morphological components. One of the most characteristic aspects is
that of the dominant underdense Voids, the product of a hierarchical process
driven by the collapse of minor voids in addition to the merging of large ones.
In this study we present an objective void finder technique which involves a
minimum of assumptions about the scale, structure and shape of voids. Our void
finding method, the Watershed Void Finder (WVF), is based upon the Watershed
Transform, a well-known technique for the segmentation of images. Importantly,
the technique has the potential to trace the existing manifestations of a void
hierarchy. The basic watershed transform is augmented by a variety of
correction procedures to remove spurious structure resulting from sampling
noise. This study contains a detailed description of the WVF. We demonstrate
how it is able to trace and identify, relatively parameter free, voids and
their surrounding (filamentary and planar) boundaries. We test the technique on
a set of Kinematic Voronoi models, heuristic spatial models for a cellular
distribution of matter. Comparison of the WVF segmentations of low noise and
high noise Voronoi models with the quantitatively known spatial characteristics
of the intrinsic Voronoi tessellation shows that the size and shape of the
voids are succesfully retrieved. WVF manages to even reproduce the full void
size distribution function.

Theor. 41 (2008) 035305 | 10.1088/1751-8113/41/3/035305 | null | quant-ph | null | We introduce a composition of quantum states of a bipartite system which is
based on the reshuffling of density matrices. This non-Abelian product is
associative and stems from the composition of quantum maps acting on a simple
quantum system. It induces a semi-group in the subset of states with maximally
mixed partial traces. Subadditivity of the von Neumann entropy with respect to
this product is proved. It is equivalent to subadditivity of the entropy of
bistochastic maps with respect to their composition, where the entropy of a map
is the entropy of the corresponding state under the Jamiolkowski isomorphism.
Strong dynamical subadditivity of a concatenation of three bistochastic maps is
established. Analogous bounds for the entropy of a composition are derived for
general stochastic maps. In the classical case they lead to new bounds for the
entropy of a product of two stochastic matrices.

for the general case of a background time evolving scalar field coupled to
heavy intermediate quantum fields which in turn are coupled to light quantum
fields. The evolution of the background field induces particle production from
the light fields through the action of the intermediate catalyzing heavy
fields. Such field configurations are generically present in most particle
physics models, including Grand Unified and Supersymmetry theories, with
application of this mechanism possible in inflation, heavy ion collision and
phase transition dynamics. The effective evolution equation for the background
field is obtained and a fluctuation-dissipation theorem is derived for this
system. The effective evolution in general is nonlocal in time. Appropriate
conditions are found for when these time nonlocal effects can be approximated
by local terms. Here careful distinction is made between a local expansion and
the special case of a derivative expansion to all orders, which requires
analytic behavior of the evolution equation in Fourier space.

sol-gel auto-ignition method and the effect of non-magnetic aluminum content on
the structural and magnetic properties has been studied. The X-ray diffraction
(XRD) revealed that the powders obtained are single phase with inverse spinel
structure. The calculated grain sizes from XRD data have been verified using
transmission electron microscopy (TEM). TEM photographs show that the powders
consist of nanometer-sized grains. It was observed that the characteristic
grain size decreases from 29 to 6 nm as the non-magnetic Al content increases,
which was attributed to the influence of non-magnetic Al concentration on the
grain size. Magnetic hysteresis loops were measured at room temperature with a
maximum applied magnetic field of 1T. As aluminum content increases, the
measured magnetic hysteresis curves become more and more narrow and the
saturation magnetization and remanent magnetization both decreased. The
reduction of agnetization compared to bulk is a consequence of spin
non-collinearity. Further reduction of magnetization with increase of aluminum
content is caused by non-magnetic Al^{3+} ions and weakened interaction between
sublattices. This, as well as the decrease in hysteresis was understood in
terms of the decrease in particle size.

fading Costa's channel with channel state information non-causally known at the

corresponding achievable rates with the assumption of Gaussian inputs. Our
results, for uncorrelated Rayleigh fading, provide intuitive insights on the
impact of the channel estimate and the channel characteristics (e.g. SNR,
fading process, channel training) on the achievable rates. These are useful in
practical scenarios of multiuser wireless communications (e.g. Broadcast
Channels) and information embedding applications (e.g. robust watermarking). We
also studied optimal training design adapted to each application. We provide
numerical results for a single-user fading Costa's channel with
maximum-likehood (ML) channel estimation. These illustrate an interesting
practical trade-off between the amount of training and its impact to the
interference cancellation performance using DPC scheme.

that the calculated results can give a good explanation to the HERMES

the fragmentation process. Furthermore, with two different approaches of
distribution and fragmentation functions, we present a prediction on the
azimuthal asymmetries of pion and kaon productions at the kinematics region of
the experiments E06010 and E06011 planned at Jefferson Lab (JLab). It is shown
that the results are insensitive to the models for the pion case. However, the
results for kaon production are sensitive to different approaches of

points in the study of the azimuthal spin asymmetries and fragmentation
functions in hadronization processes.

both energy and potential enstrophy. We show that in such flows, the forward
cascade of potential enstrophy imposes anisotropic constraints on the

energy is suppressed in the large, nearly horizontal wave modes, and should
decay with the horizontal wavenumber as $k_h^{-3}$. The potential energy is
suppressed in the large, nearly vertical wave modes, and should decay with the
vertical wavenumber as $k_z^{-3}$. These results augment the only other exact
prediction for the scaling of energy spectra due to constraints by potential
enstrophy obtained by Charney (J. Atmos. Sci. 28, 1087 (1971)), who showed that
in the quasi-geostrophic approximation for rotating stratified flows, the
energy spectra must scale isotropically with total wavenumber as $k^{-3}$. We
test our predicted scaling estimates using resolved numerical simulations of
the Boussinesq equations in the relevant parameter regimes, and find reasonable
agreement.

theory on a spatial three-torus contains a certain number of bound states,
characterized by their discrete abelian magnetic and electric 't Hooft fluxes.
At weak coupling, the wave-functions of these states are supported near points
in the moduli space of flat connections where the unbroken gauge group is
semi-simple. The number of such states is related to the number of normalizable
bound states at threshold in the supersymmetric matrix quantum mechanics with
16 supercharges based on this unbroken group. Mathematically, the determination
of the spectrum relies on the classification of almost commuting triples with
semi-simple centralizers. We complete the work begun in a previous paper, by
computing the spectrum of bound states in theories based on the
even-dimensional spin groups and the exceptional groups. The results satisfy
the constraints of S-duality in a rather non-trivial way.

Version accepted for publication | Phys.Rev.D76:017502,2007; Erratum-ibid.D77:099901,2008 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.017502 10.1103/PhysRevD.77.099901 | SHEP-0716 | hep-ph | null | We study the semileptonic decays of the lowest-lying bc baryons to the
lowest-lying cc baryons (Xi_{bc}^{(\prime*)}--> Xi_{cc}^{(*)} and
Omega_{bc}^{(\prime*)}--> Omega_{cc}^{(*)}), in the limit m_b, m_c >>
Lambda_{QCD} and close to the zero recoil point. The separate heavy quark spin
symmetries make it possible to describe all these decays using a single form
factor. We recover results derived previously by White and Savage in a manner
which we think is more straightforward and parallels the method applied later
to study Bc semileptonic decays. We further discuss the resemblance between the
bc baryon decays and those of Bc mesons to eta_c and J/\psi mesons and comment
on the relation between the slopes of the single functions describing each set
of decays. Our results can straightforwardly be applied to the decays of bb
baryons to bc baryons.

Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent | 26 pages, 1 figure | null | null | null | math.PR math.CO q-bio.PE | null | We work in the context of the infinitely many alleles model. The allelic
partition associated with a coalescent process started from n individuals is
obtained by placing mutations along the skeleton of the coalescent tree; for
each individual, we trace back to the most recent mutation affecting it and
group together individuals whose most recent mutations are the same. The number
of blocks of each of the different possible sizes in this partition is the
allele frequency spectrum. The celebrated Ewens sampling formula gives precise
probabilities for the allele frequency spectrum associated with Kingman's
coalescent. This (and the degenerate star-shaped coalescent) are the only
Lambda coalescents for which explicit probabilities are known, although they
are known to satisfy a recursion due to Moehle. Recently, Berestycki,
Berestycki and Schweinsberg have proved asymptotic results for the allele
frequency spectra of the Beta(2-alpha,alpha) coalescents with alpha in (1,2).
In this paper, we prove full asymptotics for the case of the
Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent.

Accuracy | null | Proc. of IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory
(ISIT), Nice, France, 2007 | 10.1109/ISIT.2007.4557559 | null | cs.IT math.IT | null | The optimal decoder achieving the outage capacity under imperfect channel
estimation is investigated. First, by searching into the family of nearest
neighbor decoders, which can be easily implemented on most practical coded
modulation systems, we derive a decoding metric that minimizes the average of
the transmission error probability over all channel estimation errors. This
metric, for arbitrary memoryless channels, achieves the capacity of a composite
(more noisy) channel. Next, according to the notion of estimation-induced
outage capacity (EIO capacity) introduced in our previous work, we characterize
maximal achievable information rates associated to the proposed decoder. The
performance of the proposed decoding metric over uncorrelated Rayleigh fading
MIMO channels is compared to both the classical mismatched maximum-likelihood
(ML) decoder and the theoretical limits given by the EIO capacity (i.e. the
best decoder in presence of channel estimation errors). Numerical results show
that the derived metric provides significant gains, in terms of achievable
information rates and bit error rate (BER), in a bit interleaved coded
modulation (BICM) framework, without introducing any additional decoding
complexity.

Bergara | Lindemann Criterion and the Anomalous Melting Curve of Sodium | 4 pages, 3 figures | null | 10.1016/j.jpcs.2008.03.022 | null | cond-mat.other | null | Recent reports of the melting curve of sodium at high pressure have shown
that it has a very steep descent after a maximum of around 1000K at 31 GPa.
This is not due to a phase transition. According to the Lindemann criterion,
this behaviour should be apparent in the evolution of the Debye temperature
with pressure. In this work, we have performed an "ab-initio" analysis of the
behaviour of both the Debye temperature and the elastic constants up to 102
GPa, and find a clear trend at high pressure that should cause a noticeable
effect on the melting curve.
