0707.1230 | Guido Tiana | C. Camilloni, D. Provasi, G. Tiana, R. A. Broglia | Exploring the Protein G Helix Free Energy Surface by Solute Tempering
Metadynamics | null | null | null | null | q-bio.BM | null | The free-energy landscape of the alpha-helix of protein G is studied by means
of metadynamics coupled with a solute tempering algorithm. Metadynamics allows
to overcome large energy barriers, whereas solute tempering improves the
sampling with an affordable computational effort. From the sampled free-energy
surface we are able to reproduce a number of experimental observations, such as
the fact that the lowest minimum corresponds to a globular conformation
displaying some degree of beta-structure, that the helical state is metastable
and involves only 65% of the chain. The calculations also show that the system
populates consistently a pi-helix state and that the hydrophobic staple motif
is present only in the free-energy minimum associated with the helices, and
contributes to their stabilization. The use of metadynamics coupled with solute
tempering results then particularly suitable to provide the thermodynamics of a
short peptide, and its computational efficiency is promising to deal with
larger proteins.

matrix. The Robertson uncertainty principle $$ det (Cov_\rho(A_h,A_j)) \geq det
(- \frac{i}{2} Tr (\rho [A_h,A_j])) $$ gives a bound for the quantum
generalized covariance in terms of the commutators $ [A_h,A_j]$. The right side
matrix is antisymmetric and therefore the bound is trivial (equal to zero) in
the odd case $N=2m+1$.
Let $f$ be an arbitrary normalized symmetric operator monotone function and
let $<\cdot, \cdot >_{\rho,f}$ be the associated quantum Fisher information. In
this paper we prove the inequality $$ det (Cov_\rho (A_h,A_j)) \geq det
(\frac{f(0)}{2} < i[\rho, A_h],i[\rho,A_j] >_{\rho,f}) $$ that gives a
non-trivial bound for any $N \in {\mathbb N}$ using the commutators
$[\rho,A_h]$.

Appendices, 3 figures as jpg (fig. 5, C1, C2) | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20065620 | null | astro-ph | null | We present simultaneous spectropolarimetric observations of four visible and
three infrared spectral lines from the VTT (Tenerife), together with
speckle-reconstructed filtergrams in the G band and the CaII H line core from
the DOT (La Palma). After alignment of the data sets, we used the G-band
intensity to locate bright points (BPs) in the moat of a regular sunspot. With
the cospatial and cotemporal information provided by the polarimetric data, we
characterize the magnetic, kinematic, and thermal properties of the BPs. We
find that (a) 94 % of the BPs are associated with magnetic fields; (b) their
field strengths range between 500 and 1400 G, with a rather flat distribution;
(c) the contrast of BPs in the G band depends on the angle between the vector
magnetic field and the line of sight; (d) the BPs harbor downflows of
magnetized plasma and exhibit Stokes V profiles with large area and amplitude
asymmetries; (e) the magnetic interior of BPs is hotter than the immediate
field-free surroundings by about 1000 K at equal optical depth; and (f) the
mean effective diameter of BPs in our data set is 150 km, with very few BPs
larger than 300 km. Most of these properties can be explained by the classical
magnetic flux tube model. However, the wide range of BP parameters found in
this study indicates that not all G-band BPs are identical to stable long-lived
flux tubes or sheets of kG strength.

self-consistent mean-field approximation, which is conserving, gapless, and
applicable for arbitrary interaction strengths and temperatures. The main
attention is paid to the thorough analysis of the condensate and superfluid
fractions in a wide region of interaction strengths and for all temperatures
between zero and the critical point T_c. The normal and anomalous averages are
shown to be of the same order for almost all interactions and temperatures,
except the close vicinity of T_c. But even in the vicinity of the critical
temperature, the anomalous average cannot be neglected, since only in the
presence of the latter the phase transition at T_c becomes of second order, as
it should be. Increasing temperature influences the condensate and superfluid
fractions in a similar way, by diminishing them. But their behavior with
respect to the interaction strength is very different. For all temperatures,
the superfluid fraction is larger than the condensate fraction. These coincide
only at T_c or under zero interactions. For asymptotically strong interactions,
the condensate is almost completely depleted, even at low temperatures, while
the superfluid fraction can be close to one.

lenses | Accepted by Baltic Astronomy, 10 pages, 5 figures | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | Long time photometric monitoring programs of gravitational lens systems are
often carried on using modest equipment. The resolution of such observations is
limited and some of the images may remain unresolved. It may be still possible
to find a full set of time delays from such a blended data. We discuss here a
particular but interesting case when we have two light curves that both are
blends. A suitable computational algorithm is developed and tested to work with
computer-generated model light curves. Our method combines both blended
sequences using the hypothetical time delays between the initial components of
the light curves as free input parameters. The combined curves are then
compared using statistical distance estimation. It occurs that using an
assumption of equal magnification ratios between the components of the blends,
we can indeed recover the whole set of time delays.

Antidots | 4 pages, 2 figures | null | 10.1016/j.physe.2007.10.062 | null | cond-mat.mes-hall | null | Quantum Antidot (AD) structures have remarkable properties in the integer
quantum Hall regime, exhibiting Coulomb-blockade charging and the Kondo effect
despite their open geometry. In some regimes a simple single-particle (SP)
model suffices to describe experimental observations while in others
interaction effects are clearly important, although exactly how and why
interactions emerge is unclear. We present a combination of experimental data
and the results of new calculations concerning SP orbital states which show how
the observed suppression of the energy spacing between states can be explained
through a full consideration of the AD potential, without requiring any effects
due to electron interactions such as the formation of compressible regions
composed of multiple states, which may occur at higher magnetic fields. A full
understanding of the regimes in which these effects occur is important for the
design of devices to coherently manipulate electrons in edge states using AD
resonances.

Llanes-Estrada | Regge Exchange Contribution to Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering | typos corrected, changes in Fig.3 | Acta Phys.Polon.B40:2193-2223,2009 | null | null | hep-ph | null | Recently we have shown that exclusive QCD photon-induced reactions at low
Mandelstam-t are best described by Regge exchanges in the entire scaling
region, and not only for low values of Bjorken-x. In this paper we explore this
crucial Regge behavior in Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering from the point of
view of collinear factorization, with the proton tensor written in terms of
Generalized Parton Distributions, and we reproduce this feature. Thus it
appears that in the Bjorken limit, a large class of hard, low-t exclusive
processes are more sensitive to the meson cloud of the proton than to its
fundamental quark structure. These process will then be described most
efficiently by process-dependent Regge Exclusive Amplitudes rather than by
universal Generalized Parton Distributions. We introduce such Regge Exclusive
Amplitudes for Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering.

increases. Some analysis is provided for the error events of the proposed

In the first step, we calculate the bare confinement potential of a generic QPC

the incompressible edge states (IES) taking into account electron-electron
interaction within the Thomas-Fermi theory of screening. Using a local version
of the Ohm's law, together with a relevant conductivity model, we also
calculate the current distribution. We observe that, the imposed external
current is confined locally into the incompressible strips. Our calculations
demonstrate that, the inclusion of the electron-electron interaction, strongly
changes the general picture of the transport through the QPCs.

transit allows us to verify that this is not a false positive, to confirm the
transit amplitude measured by OGLE, and to improve the ephemeris. The transit
is well defined in i-band light curve, with a depth of A_i=0.034 mag. It is
however, less well defined, but deeper (A_g=0.1 mag) in the g-band, in which
the star is significantly fainter. The near-infrared photometry obtained with
SofI array at the ESO-NTT yields K=12.2+-0.1 and V-K=8.4+-0.1, so red that it
is unlike any other transit candidate studied before. Due to the extreme nature
of this object, we have not yet been able to measure velocities for this star,
but based on the new data we consider two different possible configurations:(1)
a nearby M7V star, or (2) a blend with a very reddened distant red giant. The
nearby M7V dwarf hypothesis would give a radius for the companion of
R_p=0.3+-0.1 R_J, i.e. the size of Neptune. Quantitative analysis of near-IR
spectroscopy finally shows that OGLE-TR-82 is a distant, reddened metal poor
early K giant. This result is confirmed by direct comparison with stellar
templates that gives the best match for a K3III star. Therefore, we discard the
planetary nature of the companion. Based on all the new data, we conclude that
this system is a main-sequence binary blended with a background red giant.

solving the unsteady collisionless Boltzmann equation in both the linear and

linear eigenvalue problem which is solved using standard numerical methods. I
apply the method to the dynamics of a model stellar disk which is embedded in
the field of a soft-centered logarithmic potential. The outcome is the full
spectrum of eigenfrequencies and their conjugate normal modes for prescribed
azimuthal wavenumbers. The results show that the fundamental bar mode is
isolated in the frequency space while spiral modes belong to discrete families
that bifurcate from the continuous family of van Kampen modes. The population
of spiral modes in the bifurcating family increases by cooling the disk and
declines by increasing the fraction of dark to luminous matter. It is shown
that the variety of unstable modes is controlled by the shape of the dark
matter density profile.

turbulence viscosity and magnetic diffusivity due to magnetic field of the
central star. We explore the effect of viscosity on a rotating disk in the
presence of constant magnetic diffusivity. We show that the dynamical

Increase of the $\alpha$ coefficient in the $\alpha$-prescription model
decreases the radial velocity and increases the density of the flow. It also

superposed on an X-type magnetic field in collisionless solar plasma are
studied. Such a system is chosen to mimic generic features of dynamic
reconnection, or the reconnective dissipation of a linear disturbance. We
explore numerically the consequences for charged particle distributions of
fluctuating electric fields superposed on an X-type magnetic field. Particle
distributions are obtained by numerically integrating individual charged
particle orbits when a time varying electric field is superimposed on a static
X-type neutral point. This configuration represents the effects of the passage
of a generic MHD disturbance through such a system. Different frequencies of
the electric field are used, representing different possible types of wave. The
electric field reduces with increasing distance from the X-type neutral point
as in linear dynamic magnetic reconnection. The resulting particle
distributions have properties that depend on the amplitude and frequency of the
electric field. In many cases a bimodal form is found. Depending on the
timescale for variation of the electric field, electrons and ions may be
accelerated to different degrees and often have energy distributions of
different forms. Protons are accelerated to $\gamma$-ray producing energies and
electrons to and above hard X-ray producing energies in timescales of 1 second.
The acceleration mechanism is possibly important for solar flares and solar
noise storms but is also applicable to all collisionless plasmas.

\cite{iss07}, and show that the hidden subgroup problem in nil-2 groups, that
is in groups of nilpotency class at most 2, can be solved efficiently by a
quantum procedure. The algorithm presented here has several additional
features. It contains a powerful classical reduction for the hidden subgroup
problem in nilpotent groups of constant nilpotency class to the specific case
where the group is a $p$-group of exponent $p$ and the subgroup is either
trivial or cyclic. This reduction might also be useful for dealing with groups
of higher nilpotency class. The quantum part of the algorithm uses well chosen
group actions based on some automorphisms of nil-2 groups. The right choice of
the actions requires the solution of a system of quadratic and linear
equations. The existence of a solution is guaranteed by the Chevalley-Warning
theorem, and we prove that it can also be found efficiently.

a function of both luminosity and environment in the SDSS DR4 dataset. Using a
sample of 27753 galaxies at 0.005<z<0.037 that is >90% complete to Mr=-18.0 we
find that the EW(Ha) distribution is strongly bimodal, allowing galaxies to be
robustly separated into passive and star-forming populations about a value
EW(Ha)=2A. In high-density regions ~70% of galaxies are passive independent of
luminosity. In the rarefied field however, the fraction of passively-evolving
galaxies is a strong function of luminosity, dropping from ~50% for Mr<-21 to
zero by Mr~-18. Indeed for the lowest luminosity range covered (-18<Mr<-16)
none of the ~600 galaxies in the lowest density quartile are passive. The few
passively-evolving dwarf galaxies in field regions appear as satellites to
bright (~L*) galaxies. The fraction of galaxies with optical AGN signatures
decreases steadily from ~50% at Mr~-21 to ~0% by Mr~-18 closely mirroring the
luminosity-dependence of the passive galaxy fraction in low-density
environments. This result reflects the increasing importance of AGN feedback
with galaxy mass for their evolution, such that the star-formation histories of
massive galaxies are primarily determined by their past merger history. In
contrast, the complete absence of passively-evolving dwarf galaxies more than
~2 virial radii from the nearest massive halo (i.e. cluster, group or massive
galaxy) indicates that internal processes, such as merging, AGN feedback or gas
consumption through star-formation, are not responsible for terminating
star-formation in dwarf galaxies. Instead the evolution of dwarf galaxies is
primarily driven by the mass of their host halo, probably through the combined
effects of tidal forces and ram-pressure stripping.

and recursive iterations in symbolic dynamics. Beginning with a finite set of
data, we analyze prescribed recursive iteration systems, each involving
subdivisions. The construction includes measures arising from affine and
contractive iterated function systems with and without overlap (IFSs), i.e.,
limit measures $\mu$ induced by a finite family of affine mappings in
$\mathbb{R}^d$ (the focus of our paper), as well as equilibrium measures in
complex dynamics.
By a systematic analysis of the Fourier transform of the measure $\mu$ at
hand (frequency domain), we identify asymptotic laws, spectral types,
dichotomy, and chaos laws. In particular we show that the cases when $\mu$ is
singular carry a gradation, ranging from Cantor-like fractal measures to
measures exhibiting chaos, i.e., a situation when small changes in the initial
data produce large fluctuations in the outcome, or rather, the iteration limit
(in this case the measures). Our method depends on asymptotic estimates on the
Fourier transform of $\mu$ for paths at infinity in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We show how
properties of $\mu$ depend on perturbations of the initial data, e.g.,
variations in a prescribed finite set of affine mappings in $\mathbb{R}^d$, in
parameters of a rational function in one complex variable (Julia sets and
equilibrium measures), or in the entries of a given infinite positive definite
matrix.

ultrathin film consisting of oriented linear aggregates. A single aggregate is
described by a Frenkel exciton Hamiltonian with uncorrelated on-site disorder.
The exciton wave functions and energies are found exactly by numerically
diagonalizing the Hamiltonian. The principal restriction we impose is that only
the optical transitions between the ground state and optically dominant states
of the one-exciton manifold are considered, whereas transitions to other
states, including those of higher exciton manifolds, are neglected. The optical
dynamics of the system is treated within the framework of truncated optical
Maxwell-Bloch equations in which the electric polarization is calculated by
using a joint distribution of the transition frequency and the transition
dipole moment of the optically dominant states. This function contains all the
statistical information about these two quantities that govern the optical
response, and is obtained numerically by sampling many disorder realizations.
We derive a steady-state equation that establishes a relationship between the
output and input intensities of the electric field and show that within a
certain range of the parameter space this equation exhibits a three-valued
solution for the output field. A time-domain analysis is employed to
investigate the stability of different branches of the three-valued solutions
and to get insight into switching times. We discuss the possibility to
experimentally verify the bistable behavior.

in the context of the calculus of inductive constructions lies in the fact that
the computation mechanism varies along proof-checking: goals are sent to the
decision procedure together with the set of user hypotheses available from the
current context. Our main result shows that this extension of the calculus of
constructions does not compromise its main properties: confluence, subject
reduction, strong normalization and consistency are all preserved.

qubits in a chain of quantum dots using the naturally available single-qubit
rotations and two-qubit Heisenberg exchange interaction in the system. We show
that the minimum number of required operations to generate entangled states of
the GHZ-, cluster and W-type scales linearly with the number of qubits and
estimate the fidelities of the generated entangled cluster states. As the
required single and two-qubit operations have recently been realized, our
proposed scheme opens the way for experimental investigation of multipartite
entanglement with electron spin qubits.

It
is found that the direct CP violation in the decays, which is zero in SM, can
show up due to the CP conserving phase intrinsic in unparticle physics. For
$l=\tau$, the direct CP asymmetry can reach 30% for the scalar unparticle
contribution, and 100% for the longitudinal vector unparticle contribution
under the constraints of ${\rm Br}(B\to\tau\nu)$ and $\nu e$ elastic
scattering. If both unparticle-lepton coupling universality and
unparticle-quark coupling universality are assumed the constraint from
$Br(\pi\to \mu\nu)$ leads that the direct CP violation in $B\to l\nu$ can only
reach at most 8% and 1% for scalar and vector unparticle contributions
respectively if $d_{\cal U} < 2$. If the direct CP violation is observed in the
future it would give strong evidence for the existence of unparticle stuff.

bottomonium) is constructed. Beside the one-gluon exchange and a linear
confinement potential, the model includes systematically effects from two-gluon
exchange and the induced interaction (i.e. t-channel exchanges of
quark-antiquark bound states). These turn out to be important in order to
reproduce correctly the fine- and hyperfine structure of the charmonium and
bottomonium states. It is demonstrated that such a satisfactory description of
the quarkonium spectra can be obtained with parameters (quark masses, strong
coupling constant and string tension) consistent with values of lattice
simulations and QCD determinations.

$\Upsilon(3S) \to \Upsilon(1S) \pi \pi$ in relation to the recently reported
results of a CLEO analysis of form factors in this amplitude. We find that the
reported significant complex phase between two of the form factors under the
assumption that the third form factor is zero, is not consistent with the
picture where the phase shifts arise due to the final state interaction in the
$\pi \pi$ channel. It is also shown that in an analysis that uses no
information on the polarization of both the initial and the final $\Upsilon$
resonances it is impossible in principle to determine all the relevant terms.
We suggest that a study of a simple correlation between the direction of the
total momentum of the two pions and the axis of the initial beams is sufficient
to resolve the ambiguity in the fit for the form factors.

climate forcing in the past glacial-interglacial cycles for the likely future
climatic impacts of anthropogenic greenhouse-gas forcings | preprint in press for Physical Geography | null | null | null | physics.geo-ph physics.ao-ph | null | A review of the recent refereed literature fails to confirm quantitatively
that carbon dioxide (CO2) radiative forcing was the prime mover in the changes
in temperature, ice-sheet volume, and related climatic variables in the glacial
and interglacial periods of the past 650,000 years, even under the "fast
response" framework where the convenient if artificial distinction between
forcing and feedback is assumed. Atmospheric CO2 variations generally follow
changes in temperature and other climatic variables rather than preceding them.
Likewise, there is no confirmation of the often-posited significant supporting
role of methane (CH4) forcing, which despite its faster atmospheric response
time is simply too small, amounting to less than 0.2 W/m2 from a change of 400
ppb. We cannot quantitatively validate the numerous qualitative suggestions
that the CO2 and CH4 forcings that occurred in response to the Milankovich
orbital cycles accounted for more than half of the amplitude of the changes in
the glacial/interglacial cycles of global temperature, sea level, and ice
volume. Consequently, we infer that natural climatic variability notably the
persistence of insolation forcing at key seasons and geographical locations,
taken with closely-related thermal, hydrological, and cryospheric changes (such
as the water vapor, cloud, and ice-albedo feedbacks) suffices in se to explain
the proxy-derived, global and regional, climatic and environmental
phase-transitions in the paleoclimate. If so, it may be appropriate to place
anthropogenic greenhouse-gas emissions in context by separating their
medium-term climatic impacts from those of a host of natural forcings and
feedbacks that may, as in paleoclimatological times, prove just as significant.

Ser., 2007 | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | Gas infall and accretion play a fundamental role in galaxy formation, and
several processes of accretion are reviewed. In particular the cold accretion
may solve to some extent the angular momentum problem in disk formation, while
it is aggravated by mergers. Gas accretion is one of the main actor in secular
evolution: it is required to account for recurrent bar formation, and to
explain the feedback cycles of formation of bulges and black holes, with
correlated masses. Infall is also required to fuel a regular and almost
stationary star formation history. Star formation is quenched for galaxy in
clusters when gas accretion is suppressed through stripping. The central
brighter central galaxy can benefit however of gas accretion through cooling
flows, moderated by AGN feedback. Hot and cold feedback scenarios can be
considered, to account for a stationary cooling flow, and explain the
filamentary CO and Halpha observed structures.

stars are not well understood. Large distances, high extinction, and short
timescales of critical evolutionary phases make observations of these processes
challenging. Lacking good observational guidance, theoretical models have
remained controversial. This review offers a basic description of the collapse
of a massive molecular core and a critical discussion of the three competing
concepts of massive star formation:
- monolithic collapse in isolated cores
- competitive accretion in a protocluster environment
- stellar collisions and mergers in very dense systems
We also review the observed outflows, multiplicity, and clustering properties
of massive stars, the upper initial mass function and the upper mass limit. We
conclude that high-mass star formation is not merely a scaled-up version of
low-mass star formation with higher accretion rates, but partly a mechanism of
its own, primarily owing to the role of stellar mass and radiation pressure in
controlling the dynamics.

created when small bodies-asteroids, comets, and Kuiper belt objects-collide

clouds of rocks and dust orbiting main sequence stars thought to represent the
debris left over from planet formation. Some debris disks appear to contain
distinct inner clouds that could be considered massive exozodiacal clouds (e.g.
Koerner et al. 1998, Absil et al. 2006). This white paper addresses the need
for future theoretical work on the dynamics of exozodiacal clouds. This
theoretical work should help us discover new planets and understand exozodiacal
clouds as astrophysical noise. So far, observations of nearby stars have not
provided good constraints on the structures of exozodiacal clouds. But future
observations probably will demand a better theoretical understanding of these
systems.

mechanism is unravelled that may have dramatic implications on the formation
of exotic nuclear systems with strangeness and antikaon condensation in
compact stars | Nucl.Phys.A808:124-159,2008 | 10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2008.05.008 | null | nucl-th | null | We evaluate the antikaon and hyperon spectral functions in a self-consistent
and covariant many-body approach. The computation is based on coupled-channel
dynamics derived from the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. A novel subtraction scheme
is developed that avoids kinematical singularities and medium-induced power
divergencies all together. Scalar and vector mean fields are used to model
nuclear binding and saturation. The effect of the latter is striking for the
antikaon spectral function that becomes significantly more narrow at small
momenta. Attractive mass shifts of about 30 and 40 MeV are predicted for the
Lambda(1405) and Sigma(1385) resonances. Once scalar and vector mean fields for
the nucleon are switched on the Lambda(1520) resonances dissolves almost
completely in nuclear matter. All together only moderate attraction is
predicted for the nuclear antikaon systems at saturation density. However, at
larger densities we predict a sizable population of soft antikaon modes that
arise from the coupling of the antikaon to a highly collective Lambda(1115)
nucleon-hole state. This may lead to the formation of exotic nuclear systems
with strangeness and antikaon condensation in compact stars at moderate
densities.

pi_1(1400) and pi_1(1600) exotic candidates. Should they exist, mounting
theoretical arguments suggest that they are tetraquark molecular resonances
excitable by meson rescattering.
We report a new tetraquark calculation within a model field theory
approximation to Quantum Chromodynamics in the Coulomb gauge supporting this
conjecture. We also strengthen this claim by consistently contrasting results
with exotic state predictions for hybrid (q qbar g) mesons within the same
theoretical framework.
Our findings confirm that molecular-like configurations involving two color
singlets (a resonance, not a bound state) are clearly favored over hybrid or
color-exotic tetraquark meson (q qbar q qbar atoms) formation.
Finally, to assist needed further experimental searches we document a useful
off-plane correlator for establishing the structure of these exotic systems
along with similar, but anticipated much narrower, states that should exist in
the charmonium and bottomonium spectra.

admitting a (bounded) exhaustive real function u, defined on M minus a point
x_o, so that: a) it is a smooth solution on $M\setminus {x_o}$ to the
Monge-Amp\`ere equation $(d d^c u)^n = 0$; b) x_o is a singular point for u of
logarithmic type and e^u extends smoothly on the blow up of M at x_o; c) $d d^c
(e^u) >0$ at any point of $M\setminus {x_o}$. This class of manifolds naturally
includes all smoothly bounded, strictly linearly convex domains and all
smoothly bounded, strongly pseudoconvex circular domains of $\bC^n$. The moduli
spaces of bounded manifolds of circular type are studied. In particular, for
each biholomorphic equivalence class of them it is proved the existence of an
essentially unique manifold in normal form. It is also shown that the class of
normalizing maps for an n-dimensional manifold M is a new holomorphic invariant
with the following property: it is parameterized by the points of a finite
dimensional real manifold of dimension n^2 when M is a (non-convex) circular
domain while it is of dimension $n^2 + 2 n$ when M is a strictly convex domain.
New characterizations of the circular domains and of the unit ball are also
obtained.

line, and 7 mm continuum observations made with the Submillimeter Array and the
Very Large Array, toward the most highly obscured and southern part of the
massive star forming region OMC1S located behind the Orion Nebula. We find two
flattened and rotating molecular structures with sizes of a few hundred
astronomical units suggestive of circumbinary molecular rings produced by the
presence of two stars with very compact circumstellar disks with sizes and
separations of about 50 AU, associated with the young stellar objects 139-409
and 134-411. Furthermore, these two circumbinary rotating rings are related to
two compact and bright {\it hot molecular cores}. The dynamic mass of the
binary systems obtained from our data are $\geq$ 4 M$_\odot$ for 139-409 and
$\geq$ 0.5 M$_\odot$ for 134-411. This result supports the idea that
intermediate-mass stars will form through {\it circumstellar disks} and
jets/outflows, as the low mass stars do. Furthermore, when intermediate-mass
stars are in multiple systems they seem to form a circumbinary ring similar to
those seen in young, multiple low-mass systems (e.g., GG Tau and UY Aur).

neuronal activity are discrete jumps between a small number of stable states.
Learning in systems with discrete synapses is known to be a computationally
hard problem. Here, we study a neurobiologically plausible on-line learning
algorithm that derives from Belief Propagation algorithms. We show that it
performs remarkably well in a model neuron with binary synapses, and a finite
number of `hidden' states per synapse, that has to learn a random
classification task. Such system is able to learn a number of associations
close to the theoretical limit, in time which is sublinear in system size. This
is to our knowledge the first on-line algorithm that is able to achieve
efficiently a finite number of patterns learned per binary synapse.
Furthermore, we show that performance is optimal for a finite number of hidden
states which becomes very small for sparse coding. The algorithm is similar to
the standard `perceptron' learning algorithm, with an additional rule for
synaptic transitions which occur only if a currently presented pattern is
`barely correct'. In this case, the synaptic changes are meta-plastic only
(change in hidden states and not in actual synaptic state), stabilizing the
synapse in its current state. Finally, we show that a system with two visible
states and K hidden states is much more robust to noise than a system with K
visible states. We suggest this rule is sufficiently simple to be easily
implemented by neurobiological systems or in hardware.

carry an essential potential for cosmological studies if properly used as
standard candles. In this paper we test with GRBs the cosmological predictions
of the Gurzadyan-Xue (GX) model of dark energy, a novel theory that predicts,
without any free parameters, the current vacuum fluctuation energy density
close to the value inferred from the SNIa observations. We also compare the GX
results with those predicted by the concordance scenario $\Lambda$-CDM.
According to the statistical approach by Schaefer (2007), the use of several
empirical relations obtained from GRBs observables, after a consistent
calibration for a specific model, enables one to probe current cosmological
models. Based on this recently introduced method, we use the 69 GRBs sample
collected by Schaefer (2007); and the most recently released SWIFT satellite
data (Sakamoto et al. 2007) together with the 41 GRBs sample collected by
Rizzuto et al. (2007), which has the more firmly determined redshifts. Both
data samples span a distance scale up to redshift about 7. We show that the GX
models are compatible with the Hubble diagram of the Schaefer (2007) 69 GRBs
sample. Such adjustment is almost identical to the one for the concordance
$\Lambda$-CDM.

vacuum state reduced to a region V can be formally expressed in terms of a
functional integral on a manifold with conical singularities. Recently, some
progress has been made in explicitly evaluating this type of integrals for free
fields. However, finding the associated geometric entropy remained in general a
difficult task involving an analytic continuation in the conical angle. In this
paper, we obtain this analytic continuation explicitly exploiting a relation
between the functional integral formulas and the Chung-Peschel expressions for
the density matrix in terms of correlators. The result is that the entropy is
given in terms of a functional integral in flat Euclidean space with a cut on V
where a specific boundary condition is imposed. As an example we get the exact
entanglement entropies for massive scalar and Dirac free fields in 1+1
dimensions in terms of the solutions of a non linear differential equation of
the Painleve V type.

repulsive on-site interaction (positive-U), which describes fermionic atoms in
an anisotropic optical lattice near a wide Feshbach resonance. For our
calculation, we utilize the time evolving block decimation (TEBD) algorithm,
which is an extension of the density matrix renormalization group and provides
a well-controlled method for 1D systems. We show that the positive-U GHM, when
hole-doped from half-filling, exhibits a phase with coexistence of
quasi-long-range superfluid and charge-density-wave orders. This feature is
different from the property of the conventional Hubbard model with positive-U,
indicating the particle-assisted tunnelling mechanism in GHM brings in
qualitatively new physics.

Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey: New insights into the Hubble sequence | Accepted for publication in the Monthly Notices of the Royal
Astronomical Society | null | 10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.12204.x | null | astro-ph | null | To study the distribution of star formation and dust emission within nearby
galaxies, we measured five morphological parameters in the 3.6 and 24 micron
wave bands for 65 galaxies in the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey
(SINGS) and 8 galaxies that were serendipitously observed by SINGS. The
morphological parameters demonstrate strong variations along the Hubble
sequence, including statistically significant differences between S0/a-Sab and
Sc-Sd galaxies. Early-type galaxies are generally found to be compact,
centralized, symmetric sources in the 24 micron band, while late-type galaxies
are generally found to be extended, asymmetric sources. These results suggest
that the processes that increase the real or apparent sizes of galaxies' bulges
also lead to more centralized 24 micron dust emission. Several phenomena, such
as strong nuclear star formation, Seyfert activity, or outer ring structures,
may cause galaxies to deviate from the general morphological trends observed at
24 microns. We also note that the 24 micron morphologies of Sdm-Im galaxies are
quite varied, with some objects appearing very compact and symmetric while
others appear diffuse and asymmetric. These variations reflect the wide
variation in star formation in irregular galaxies as observed at other
wavelengths. The variations in the 24 micron morphological parameters across
the Hubble sequence mirror many of the morphological trends seen in other
tracers of the ISM and in stellar emission. However, the 24 micron
morphological parameters for the galaxies in this sample do not match the
morphological parameters measured in the stellar wave bands. This implies that
the distribution of dust emission is related to but not equivalent to the
distribution of stellar emission.

lactose and lactose + glucose | 34 pages, Bull Math Biol | null | null | null | q-bio.MN q-bio.CB | null | The lac operon of Escherichia coli exhibits bistability. Early studies showed
that bistability occurs during growth on TMG/succinate and lactose + glucose,
but not during growth on lactose. More recent studies with lacGFP-transfected
cells show bistability with TMG/succinate, but not with lactose and lactose +
glucose. In the literature, these results are attributed to variations of the
positive feedback generated by induction. Specifically, during growth on
TMG/succinate, induction generates positive feedback because the permease
stimulates the accumulation of TMG, which, in turn, promotes the synthesis of
more permease. This positive feedback is attenuated during growth on lactose
because hydrolysis of lactose by galactosidase suppresses the stimulatory
effect of the permease. But the stabilizing effect of dilution also changes
dramatically as a function of the medium composition. For instance, during
growth on TMG/succinate, the dilution rate of the permease is proportional to
its activity, $e$, because the specific growth rate is independent of $e$.
However, during growth on lactose, the permease dilution rate is proportional
to $e^2$ because the specific growth rate is proportional to the specific
lactose uptake rate, which in turn, proportional to $e$. Here, we show that:
(a) This dependence on $e^2$ creates such a strong stabilizing effect that
bistability is virtually impossible during growth on lactose, even in the face
of positive feedback. (b) This stabilizing effect is weakened during growth on
lactose + glucose because the specific growth rate on glucose is independent of
$e$, so that the dilution rate once again contains a term that is proportional
to $e$. We discuss the experimental data in the light of these results.

most saturated hydrocarbon ever detected in space through radio astronomical
techniques. In spite of its weak dipole moment, 6 doublets (A and E species)
plus another line from the A species have been observed with main beam
temperatures above 20 mK. The derived total column density of propylene is 4
10^13 cm^-2, which corresponds to an abundance relative to H_2 of 4 10^-9,
i.e., comparable to that of other well known and abundant hydrocarbons in this
cloud, such as c-C_3H_2. Although this isomer of C_3H_6 could play an important
role in interstellar chemistry, it has been ignored by previous chemical models
of dark clouds as there seems to be no obvious formation pathway in gas phase.
The discovery of this species in a dark cloud indicates that a thorough
analysis of the completeness of gas phase chemistry has to be done.

discrete analogue of the canonical map from a Riemann surface to projective
space. We also discuss several equivalent formulations of the notion of a
hyperelliptic graph, all motivated by the classical theory of Riemann surfaces.
As an application of our results, we show that for a 2-edge-connected graph G
which is not a cycle, there is at most one involution $\iota$ on G for which
the quotient $G/\iota$ is a tree. We also show that the number of spanning
trees in a graph G is even if and only if G admits a non-constant harmonic
morphism to the graph B_2 consisting of 2 vertices connected by 2 edges.
Finally, we use the Riemann-Hurwitz formula and our results on hyperelliptic
graphs to classify all hyperelliptic graphs having no Weierstrass points.

the inversions are sensitive is limited, especially in the chromosphere. We
present results of inverting spectropolarimetric observations of the lines in a
quiet Sun region. We find three distinct ranges in chromospheric temperature:
low temperatures in the internetwork, high temperatures in the enhanced
magnetic network and intermediate temperatures associated with low magnetic
flux regions in the network. The differences between these regions become more
pronounced with height as the plasma-$\beta$ decreases. These inversions
support the picture of the chromosphere, especially close to the magnetic
network, being highly inhomogeneous both in the vertical and horizontal
directions.

Rover will embark a drilling machine which will give access to samples of
sub-surface of Mars to 2 meters depth. This constitutes the great originality
of ExoMars, because the Mars sub-surface remains still unknown and seems to be
the best place to shelter good conditions to create life. This drilling machine
will be guided by a radar system sounder UHF, the WISDOM instrument, which will
also make possible to probe the Mars sub-surface to a few meters of depth to
detect water and to study the geological structures. We have analytical and
numerical electromagnetic models to simulate the behavior of an electromagnetic
wave in the Mars sub-surface, but also to simulate the interactions between the
wave and the structure of the Rover. The objective of the work which we present
consists in the study of the factors able to create disturbances of
measurements in order to correct the effects on the measured signal. Initially
we present the solution which we retained in order to be able during the same
calculation to simulate the displacement of the Rover on several tens of

We develop an analytical model for the simplest case of a single vibrational

initial energy of the trapped particle by observing the fluorescence rate
during the cooling process. The experimental implementation of this temperature
measurement provides a way to measure atom heating rates by observing the
temperature rise in the absence of cooling. This method is technically
relatively simple compared to conventional sideband detection methods, and the
two methods are in reasonable agreement. We also discuss the effects of RF
micromotion, relevant for a trapped atomic ion, and the effect of coupling
between the vibrational modes on the cooling dynamics.

the coronal plasma roughly marginally collisionless. The self-regulating
mechanism is based on the interplay of two effects. First, plasma density
controls coronal energy release via the transition between the slow collisional
Sweet-Parker regime and the fast collisionless reconnection regime. This
transition takes place when the Sweet--Parker layer becomes thinner than the
characteristic collisionless reconnection scale. I present a simple criterion
for this transition in terms of the upstream plasma density (n_e), the
reconnecting (B_0) and guide (B_z) magnetic field components, and the global
length (L) of the reconnection layer: L < 6.10^9 cm [n_e/(10^{10}/cm^3)]^(-3)
(B_0/30G)^4 (B_0/B_z)^2. Next, coronal energy release by reconnection raises
the ambient plasma density via chromospheric evaporation and this, in turn,
temporarily inhibits subsequent reconnection involving the newly-reconnected
loops. Over time, however, radiative cooling gradually lowers the density again
below the critical value and fast reconnection again becomes possible. As a
result, the density is highly inhomogeneous and intermittent but,
statistically, does not deviate strongly from the critical value which is
comparable with the observed coronal density. Thus, in the long run, the
coronal heating process can be represented by repeating cycles that consist of
fast reconnection events (i.e., nanoflares), followed by rapid evaporation
episodes, followed by relatively long periods (1-hour) during which magnetic
stresses build up and simultaneously the plasma cools down and precipitates.

effective worldvolume description of $N$ coincident M2-branes ending on an

worldvolume theory of the M2-branes in terms of a Bogomol'nyi equation, and its
solution via a fuzzy (three-) funnel. Tests of the consistency of this picture
are then performed and many of the issues with it are addressed. This is
followed by a discussion of how a refinement of the fuzzy three-sphere algebra
used can lead to the correct $N^{3/2}$ scaling of degrees of freedom for this
system. A reduction of this Basu-Harvey picture to the D1-string picture of the
D1-D3 intersection is then performed via constructing a reduction of the
fuzzy-three sphere to the fuzzy two-sphere.
The second part of the dissertation describes how a holomorphic factorisation
argument can be used to demonstrate quantum equivalence of the doubled
formalism of string theory with the standard formalism by deriving the
partition function, including instanton and oscillator sectors.

considered in these lectures include the Willmore energy as well as conformal
and curvature line parametrizations of surfaces. In particular we discuss
geometric properties of a recently found discrete Willmore energy. The
convergence to the smooth Willmore functional is shown for special refinements
of triangulations originating from a curvature line parametrization of a
surface. Further we treat special classes of discrete surfaces such as
isothermic and minimal. The construction of these surfaces is based on the
theory of circle patterns, in particular on their variational description.

two-dimensional hard-core boson system | 4 pages, 5 figures | null | 10.1103/PhysRevLett.101.120405 | null | cond-mat.other | null | A two-dimensional lattice hard-core boson system with a small fraction of
bosonic or fermionic impurity particles is studied. The impurities have the
same hopping and interactions as the dominant bosons and their effects are
solely due to quantum statistics. Quantum Monte Carlo simulations are carried
out in which paths of the dominant boson species are sampled and a summation is
performed over all second-species paths compatible with the permutation cycles.
Both kinds of impurities reduce modestly and equally the Kosterliz-Thouless
superfluid transition temperature. However, the effective impurity interactions
are found to be qualitatively different at lower temperatures; fermions are
repulsive and further suppress superfluidity at low temperatures.

present paper is to provide new intrinsic (coordinate-free) proofs of intrinsic
versions of the existence and uniqueness theorems for the Cartan and Berwald
connections on a Finsler manifold. To accomplish this, the notions of semispray
and nonlinear connection associated with a given regular connection, in the
pullback bundle, is introduced and investigated. Moreover, it is shown that for
the Cartan and Berwald connections, the associated semispray coincides with the
canonical spray and the associated nonlinear connection coincides with the
Barthel connection. An explicit intrinsic expression relating both connections
is deduced.

Conference, Bled, 2007, referencing improved | ECONFC070512:012,2007 | null | null | hep-ph | null | We provide a review of predictions for sin 2beta_eff in b->s penguin
dominated modes based on 1/m_b expansion and/or SU(3) flavor symmetry. The
experimental results are consistently lower than the theoretical predictions.
In order to interpret whether this effect is a sign of new physics
contributions or can be explained away within the Standard Model a theoretical
input cannot be avoided. The effect survives at a level larger than 2.1 sigma
in a conservative average over different modes that includes theoretical
predictions.

input both from the putative non-critical string theory as well as QCD. It is
argued that a gravity theory in five dimensions coupled to a dilaton and an
axion may capture the important qualitative features of pure QCD. A part of the
higher alpha' corrections are resummed into a dilaton potential. The potential
is shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the exact beta-function of
QCD, and its knowledge determines the full structure of the vacuum solution.
The geometry near the UV boundary is that of AdS_5 with logarithmic corrections
reflecting the asymptotic freedom of QCD. We find that all relevant confining
backgrounds have an IR singularity of the "good" kind that allows unambiguous
spectrum computations. Near the singularity the 't Hooft coupling is driven to
infinity. Asymptotically linear glueball masses can also be achieved. The
classification of all confining asymptotics, the associated glueball spectra
and meson dynamics are addressed in a companion paper, ArXiv:0707.1349

investigate the star formation history of the host galaxies of 257 Type Ia
supernovae. We find 5$\sigma$ evidence for a short-lived population of
progenitors with lifetimes of less than 180 Myr, indicating a Type Ia supernova
channel arising from stars in the mass range $\sim$3.5-8 $M_\odot$. As
standardizeable candles, Type Ia supernovae play an important role in
determining the expansion history of the Universe, but to be useful for future
cosmological surveys, the peak luminosity needs to be free of uncorrected
systematic effects at the level of 1-2%. If the different progenitor routes
lead to supernovae with even moderately small differences in properties, then
these need to be corrected for separately, or they could lead to a systematic
bias in future supernovae surveys, as the prompt route is likely to increase in
importance at high redshift. VESPA analysis of hosts could be a valuable tool
in this, by identifying which progenitor route is most likely.

carry energy-momentum charges which are divergenceless and obey a deformed
