time dependent magnetic field | 4 pages and 5 figures | null | 10.1103/PhysRevE.77.022105 | null | cond-mat.stat-mech | null | We study the dynamics of a trapped, charged Brownian particle in presence of
a time dependent magnetic field. We calculate work distributions for different
time dependent protocols. In our problem thermodynamic work is related to
variation of vector potential with time as opposed to the earlier studies where
the work is related to time variation of the potentials which depends only on
the coordinates of the particle. Using Jarzynski identity and Crook's equality
we show that the free energy of the particle is independent of the magnetic
field, thus complementing the Bohr-van Leeuwen theorem. We also show that our
system exhibits a parametric resonance in certain parameter space.

Mn_2NiGa | Euro Physics Letters (accepted) | null | 10.1209/0295-5075/80/57002 | null | cond-mat.other | null | The electronic structure of Mn_2NiGa has been studied using density
functional theory and photoemission spectroscopy. The lower temperature
tetragonal martensitic phase with c/a= 1.25 is more stable compared to the
higher temperature austenitic phase. Mn_2NiGa is ferrimagnetic in both phases.
The calculated valence band spectrum, the optimized lattice constants and the
magnetic moments are in good agreement with experiment. The majority-spin Fermi
surface (FS) expands in the martensitic phase, while the minority-spin FS
shrinks. FS nesting indicates occurrence of phonon softening and modulation in
the martensitic phase.

element method proposed in \cite{duttora1,duttom,duttora2,tomarth} to solve
elliptic problems with general boundary conditions to exponential accuracy on
polygonal domains using nonconforming spectral element functions. A geometrical
mesh is used in a neighbourhood of the corners. With this mesh we seek a
solution which minimizes the sum of a weighted squared norm of the residuals in
the partial differential equation and the squared norm of the residuals in the
boundary conditions in fractional Sobolev spaces and enforce continuity by
adding a term which measures the jump in the function and its derivatives at
inter-element boundaries, in fractional Sobolev norms, to the functional being
minimized. In the neighbourhood of the corners, modified polar coordinates are
used and a global coordinate system elsewhere. A stability estimate is derived
for the functional which is minimized based on the regularity estimate in
\cite{babguo1}. We examine how to parallelize the method and show that the set
of common boundary values consists of the values of the function at the corners
of the polygonal domain. The method is faster than that proposed in
\cite{duttora1,duttom,tomarth} and the h-p finite element method and stronger
error estimates are obtained.

vacuum fluctuations | 14 pages, no figures | null | null | null | quant-ph | null | The main argument against the reality of the electromagnetic vacuum
fluctuations is that they do not activate photon detectors. In order to meet
this objection we propose a classical model of a photodetector which, in the
simple case of a light signal with constant intensity, gives a counting rate
which is a non-linear function of the intensity. For sufficiently large signal
intensity, the counting rate is proportional to the intensity, in agreement
with the standard quantum results, but there is a dark rate when the signal
intensity is low.

points of the dual unit ball. Motivated by a description due to Labuschagne and
Mascioni \cite{LM} of such maps for the space of compact operators on a Hilbert
space, in this article we consider a description of nice surjections on
${\mathcal K}(X,Y)$ for Banach spaces $X,Y$. We give necessary and sufficient
conditions when nice surjections are given by composition operators. Our
results imply automatic continuity of these maps with respect to other
topologies on spaces of operators. We also formulate the corresponding result
for ${\mathcal L}(X,Y)$ thereby proving an analogue of the result from
\cite{LM} for $L^p$ ($1 <p \neq 2 <\infty$) spaces. We also formulate results
when nice operators are not of the canonical form, extending and correcting the
results from \cite{KS}.

Minor revision | null | null | null | math.AC math.AG | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Let $R=k[x_1,..., x_r]$ be the polynomial ring in $r$ variables over an
infinite field $k$, and let $M$ be the maximal ideal of $R$. Here a \emph{level
algebra} will be a graded Artinian quotient $A$ of $R$ having socle
$Soc(A)=0:M$ in a single degree $j$. The Hilbert function $H(A)=(h_0,h_1,...
,h_j)$ gives the dimension $h_i=\dim_k A_i$ of each degree-$i$ graded piece of
$A$ for $0\le i\le j$. The embedding dimension of $A$ is $h_1$, and the
\emph{type} of $A$ is $\dim_k \Soc (A)$, here $h_j$. The family $\Levalg (H)$
of level algebra quotients of $R$ having Hilbert function $H$ forms an open
subscheme of the family of graded algebras or, via Macaulay duality, of a
Grassmannian.
We show that for each of the Hilbert functions $H=H_1=(1,3,4,4)$ and
$H=H_2=(1,3,6,8,9,3)$ the family $LevAlg (H)$ parametrizing level Artinian
algebras of Hilbert function $H$ has several irreducible components. We show
also that these examples each lift to points. However, in the first example, an
irreducible Betti stratum for Artinian algebras becomes reducible when lifted
to points. These were the first examples we obtained of multiple components for
$\Levalg(H)$ in embedding dimension three.
We also show that the second example is the first in an infinite sequence of
examples of type three Hilbert functions $H(c)$ in which also the number of
components of LevAlg(H) gets arbitrarily large.
The first case where the phenomenon of multiple components can occur (i.e.
the lowest embedding dimension and then the lowest type) is that of dimension
three and type two. Examples of this first case have been obtained by the
authors and also by J.-O. Kleppe.

Minkowski space | 137 pages, 2 figures, PhD thesis | null | null | DESY-THESIS-2006-037 | hep-th | null | We study field theories on the noncommutative Minkowski space with
noncommuting time. The focus lies on dispersion relations in quantized
interacting models in the Yang-Feldman formalism. In particular, we compute the
two-point correlation function of the field strength in noncommutative quantum
electrodynamics to second order. At this, we take into account the covariant
coordinates that allow the construction of local gauge invariant quantities
(observables). It turns out that this does not remove the well-known severe
infrared problem, as one might have hoped. Instead, things become worse, since
nonlocal divergences appear. We also show that these cancel in a supersymmetric
version of the theory if the covariant coordinates are adjusted accordingly.
Furthermore, we study the phi^3 and the Wess-Zumino model and show that the
distortion of the dispersion relations is moderate for parameters typical for
the Higgs field. We also disuss the formulation of gauge theories on
noncommutative spaces and study classical electrodynamics on the noncommutative
Minkowski space using covariant coordinates. In particular, we compute the
change of the speed of light due to nonlinear effects in the presence of a
background field. Finally, we examine the so-called twist approach to quantum
field theory on the noncommutative Minkowski space and point out some
conceptual problems of this approach.

gravitation may be described in terms of spatially averaged variables. In
Einstein's theory, restricting attention to scalar variables, this evolution
can be modeled by solutions of a set of Friedmann equations for an effective
volume scale factor, with matter and backreaction source terms. The latter can
be represented by an effective scalar field (`morphon field') modeling Dark
Energy.
The present work provides an overview over the Dark Energy debate in
connection with the impact of inhomogeneities, and formulates strategies for a
comprehensive quantitative evaluation of backreaction effects both in
theoretical and observational cosmology. We recall the basic steps of a
description of backreaction effects in relativistic cosmology that lead to
refurnishing the standard cosmological equations, but also lay down a number of
challenges and unresolved issues in connection with their observational
interpretation.
The present status of this subject is intermediate: we have a good
qualitative understanding of backreaction effects pointing to a global
instability of the standard model of cosmology; exact solutions and
perturbative results modeling this instability lie in the right sector to
explain Dark Energy from inhomogeneities. It is fair to say that, even if
backreaction effects turn out to be less important than anticipated by some
researchers, the concordance high-precision cosmology, the architecture of
current N-body simulations, as well as standard perturbative approaches may all
fall short in correctly describing the Late Universe.

added | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | We present results from Chandra and XMM-Newton spectroscopic observations of
the nuclei of z<0.5 radio galaxies and quasars from the 3CRR catalog, and
examine in detail the dichotomy in the properties of low- and high-excitation
radio galaxies. The X-ray spectra of low-excitation sources (those with weak or
absent optical emission lines) are dominated by unabsorbed emission from a
parsec-scale jet, with no contribution from accretion-related emission. These
sources show no evidence for an obscuring torus, and are likely to accrete in a
radiatively inefficient manner. High-excitation sources (those with prominent
optical emission lines), on the other hand, show a significant contribution
from a radiatively efficient accretion disk, which is heavily absorbed in the
X-ray when they are oriented close to edge-on with respect to the observer.
However, the low-excitation/high-excitation division does not correspond to the
FRI/FRII division: thus the Fanaroff-Riley dichotomy remains a consequence of
the interaction between the jet and the hot-gas environment through which it
propagates. Finally, we suggest that accretion of the hot phase of the IGM is
sufficient to power all low-excitation radio sources, while high-excitation
sources require an additional contribution from cold gas that in turn forms the
cold disk and torus. This model explains a number of properties of the
radio-loud active galaxy population, and has important implications for AGN
feedback mechanisms.

relevance to Shor's algorithm we study fidelity decay due to phase and bit-flip
errors in a single qubit and show exponential decay with shoulders at multiples

the eigenvalues of $X_N$, once renormalized by $\sqrt{N}$, converges almost
surely and in expectation to the so-called semicircular distribution as $N$
goes to infinity. In this paper we study the same question when $P$ is in the
domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable law. We prove that if we renormalize
the eigenvalues by a constant $a_N$ of order $N^{\frac{1}{\alpha}}$, the
corresponding spectral distribution converges in expectation towards a law
$\mu_\alpha$ which only depends on $\alpha$. We characterize $\mu_\alpha$ and
study some of its properties; it is a heavy-tailed probability measure which is
absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure except possibly on a
compact set of capacity zero.

given. In particular, a novel rigorous definition of a fuzzy negation as an
operation acting on a lattice to render it into a fuzzy logic is presented.
According to this definition, a fuzzy negation satisfies the weak double
negation condition, requiring double negation to be expansive, the antitony
condition, being equivalent to the disjunctive De Morgan law and thus
warranting compatibility of negation with the lattice operations, and the
Boolean boundary condition stating that the universal bounds of the lattice are
the negation of each other. From this perspective, the most general logics are
fuzzy logics, containing as special cases paraconsistent (quantum) logics,
quantum logics, intuitionistic logics, and Boolean logics, each of which given
by its own algebraic restrictions. New examples of a non-contradictory logic
violating the conjunctive De Morgan law, and of a typical non-orthomodular
fuzzy logic along with its explicit lattice representation are given.

5' of the Local Group spiral M33. The data were obtained with the ARC 3.5m
telescope. Blue and red spectra with resolutions from 2 to 4\AA covering the
principal gaseous emission and stellar absorption lines were obtained along the
major and minor axes and six other position angles. The observed radial
velocities of the ionized gas along the photometric major axis of M33 remain
flat at ~22 km s^{-1} all the way into the center, while the stellar velocities
show a gradual rise from zero to 22 km s^{-1} over that same region. The
central star cluster is at or very close to the dynamical center, with a
velocity that is in accordance with M33's systemic velocity to within our
uncertainties. Velocities on the minor axis are non-zero out to about 1' from
the center in both the stars and gas. Together with the major axis velocities,
they point at significant deviations from circular rotation. The most likely
explanation for the bulk of the velocity patterns are streaming motions along a
weak inner bar with a PA close to that of the minor axis, as suggested by
previously published IR photometric images. The presence of bar imprints in M33
implies that all major Local Group galaxies are barred. The non-circular
motions over the inner 200 pc make it difficult to constrain the shape of M33's
inner dark matter halo profile. If the non-circular motions we find in this
nearby Sc galaxy are present in other more distant late-type galaxies, they
might be difficult to recognize.

However, if $\Bbbk $ is a field of characteristic zero, $\langle x\rangle ^{n}$

investigate the sensitivity to the three-body structure of $^{11}$Li and find
that the charge radius measurement favors a model with a 50% s-wave component
in the ground state of the two-neutron halo, whereas the dipole response is
consistent with a smaller s-wave component of about 25% value.

Telescope (BAT) and XRT light curves by extrapolating the XRT data (2-10 keV)
into the BAT energy range (15-25 keV) rather than extrapolating the BAT data
into the XRT energy band (0.3-10 keV). Based on the fits to the composite light
curves, we have confirmed the existence of an exponential decay component which
smoothly connects the BAT prompt data to the XRT steep decay for several GRBs.
We also find that the XRT steep decay for some of the bursts can be well fit by
a combination of a power-law with an exponential decay model. We discuss this
exponential component within the frame work of both the internal and the
external shock model.

violation might be modified, perhaps by quantum corrections, possibly producing
a curved spacetime with a cosmological constant. We show that its symmetry
group ISIM(2) does admit a 2-parameter family of continuous deformations, but
none of these give rise to non-commutative translations analogous to those of
the de Sitter deformation of the Poincar\'e group: spacetime remains flat. Only
a 1-parameter family DISIM_b(2) of deformations of SIM(2) is physically
acceptable. Since this could arise through quantum corrections, its
implications for tests of Lorentz violations via the Cohen-Glashow proposal
should be taken into account. The Lorentz-violating point particle action
invariant under DISIM_b(2) is of Finsler type, for which the line element is
homogeneous of degree 1 in displacements, but anisotropic. We derive
DISIM_b(2)-invariant wave equations for particles of spins 0, 1/2 and 1. The
experimental bound, $|b|<10^{-26}$, raises the question ``Why is the
dimensionless constant $b$ so small in Very Special Relativity?''

Channels with Partial CSI | 5 pages, 2 figures, to appear in the Proceedings of the IEEE
International Symposium on Information Theory, Nice, France, 24-29 June, 2007 | null | null | null | cs.IT math.IT | null | This paper re-examines the well-known fundamental tradeoffs between rate and
reliability for the multi-antenna, block Rayleigh fading channel in the high
signal to noise ratio (SNR) regime when (i) the transmitter has access to
(noiseless) one bit per coherence-interval of causal channel state information
(CSI) and (ii) soft decoding delays together with worst-case delay guarantees
are acceptable. A key finding of this work is that substantial improvements in
reliability can be realized with a very short expected delay and a slightly
longer (but bounded) worst-case decoding delay guarantee in communication
systems where the transmitter has access to even one bit per coherence interval
of causal CSI. While similar in spirit to the recent work on communication
systems based on automatic repeat requests (ARQ) where decoding failure is
known at the transmitter and leads to re-transmission, here transmit
side-information is purely based on CSI. The findings reported here also lend
further support to an emerging understanding that decoding delay (related to
throughput) and codeword blocklength (related to coding complexity and delays)
are distinctly different design parameters which can be tuned to control
reliability.

scalar and gauge fields. Such couplings may dominate in natural models of
inflation, in which the flatness of the inflaton potential is related to an
approximate shift symmetry of the inflaton. We compare our results with
previously studied models with non-derivative couplings. For sufficiently heavy
scalar matter, parametric resonance is ineffective in reheating the universe,
because the couplings of the inflaton to matter are very weak. If scalar matter
fields are light, derivative couplings lead to a mild long-wavelength
instability that drives matter fields to non-zero expectation values. In this
case however, long-wavelength fluctuations of the light scalar are produced
during inflation, leading to a host of cosmological problems. In contrast,
axion-like couplings of the inflaton to a gauge field do not lead to production
of long-wavelength fluctuations during inflation. However, again because of the
weakness of the couplings to the inflaton, parametric resonance is not
effective in producing gauge field quanta.

is an ongoing engineering challenge. Under well-defined conditions, spontaneous
anti-Stokes fluorescence of a dopant material in a host matrix is capable of
lowering the host temperature. The fluorescence is conveying away a part of the
thermal energy stored in the vibrational oscillations of the host lattice. In
particular, applying this principle to the cooling of (solid-state) lasers
opens up many potential device applications, especially in the domain of
high-power lasers. In this paper, an alternative optical cooling scheme is
outlined, leading to radiative cooling of solid-state lasers. It is based on
converting the thermal energy stored in the host, into optical energy by means
of a stimulated nonlinear process, rather than a spontaneous process. This
should lead to better cooling efficiencies and a higher potential of applying
the principle for device applications.

gauge theory | 49 pages, 3 figures | null | null | null | hep-th hep-lat | null | A derivation is given from first principles of the fact that the SU(2) gauge
theory is in a confining phase for all values of the coupling $0 < g < \infty$
defined at lattice spacing (UV regulator) $a$, and space-time dimension $d \leq
4$. The strategy is to employ approximate RG decimation transformations of the
potential moving type which give both upper and lower bounds on the partition
function at each successive decimation step. By interpolation between these
bounds an exact representation of the partition function is obtained on
progressively coarser lattices. In the same manner, one obtains a
representation of the partition function in the presence of external center
flux. Under successive decimations the flow of the effective action in these
representations is constrained by that in the upper and lower bounds which are
easily explicitly computable. Confining behavior for the vortex free energy
order parameter (ratio of partition functions with and without external flux),
hence `area law' for the Wilson loop, is the result for any initial coupling.
Keeping the string tension fixed determines the dependence $g(a)$, which is
such that $g(a) \to 0$ for $a \to 0$.

state exhibited T2 dependence up to approximately 150 K. A clear specific heat
anomaly was observed at Tc for Pr247 reduced in a vacuum for 24 hrs, proving
the bulk nature of the superconducting state. By the reduction treatment, the
magnetic ordering temperature TN of Pr moments decreased from 16 to 11 K, and
the entropy associated with the ordering increased, while the effective
paramagnetic moments obtained from the DC magnetic susceptibility varied from
2.72 to 3.13 mB. The sign of Hall coefficient changed from positive to negative
with decreasing temperature in the normal state of a superconducting Pr247,
while that of as-sintered one was positive down to 5 K. The electrical
resistivity under high magnetic fields was found to exhibit T^a dependence (a =
0.08 - 0.4) at low temperatures. A possibility of superconductivity in the
so-called CuO double chains is discussed.

the massive mixed symmetry integer higher spin fields described by the rank-two
Young tableaux in arbitrary dimensional Minkowski space. The theory is
formulated in terms of auxiliary Fock space. No off-shell constraints on the
fields and the gauge parameters are imposed. The approach under consideration
automatically leads to a gauge invariant Lagrangian for massive theory with all
appropriate Stuckelberg fields. It is shown that all the restrictions defining
an irreducible representation of the Poincare group arise from Lagrangian
formulation as a consequence of the equations of motion and gauge
transformations. As an example of the general procedure, we derive the
gauge-invariant Lagrangian for massive rank-2 antisymmetric tensor field
containing the complete set of auxiliary fields and gauge parameters.

Optimization and Design Issues | Submitted to CAS-I, July 07; 11 pages, 5 figures, 3 tables | null | null | null | cs.OH | null | This paper focuses on the design of multiplier-less decimation filters
suitable for oversampled digital signals. The aim is twofold. On one hand, it
proposes an optimization framework for the design of constituent decimation
filters in a general multistage decimation architecture. The basic building
blocks embedded in the proposed filters belong, for a simple reason, to the
class of cyclotomic polynomials (CPs): the first 104 CPs have a z-transfer
function whose coefficients are simply {-1,0,+1}. On the other hand, the paper
provides a bunch of useful techniques, most of which stemming from some key
properties of CPs, for designing the proposed filters in a variety of
architectures. Both recursive and non-recursive architectures are discussed by
focusing on a specific decimation filter obtained as a result of the
optimization algorithm.
Design guidelines are provided with the aim to simplify the design of the
constituent decimation filters in the multistage chain.

is obtained in an infinite isotropic elastic medium (a matrix) with a
three-dimensional polyhedron-shaped inclusion (a quantum dot). The expression
was obtained utilizing the analogy between electrostatic and elastic theory
problems. The main idea lies in similarity of behavior of point charge electric
field and the strain field induced by point inclusion in the matrix. This opens
a way to simplify the structure of the expression for the strain tensor. In the
solution, the strain distribution consists of contributions related to faces
and edges of the inclusion. A contribution of each face is proportional to the
solid angle at which the face is seen from the point where the strain is
calculated. A contribution of an edge is proportional to the electrostatic
potential which would be induced by this edge if it is charged with a constant
linear charge density. The solution is valid for the case of inclusion having
the same elastic constants as the matrix. Our method can be applied also to the
case of semi-infinite matrix with a free surface. Three particular cases of the
general solution are considered--for inclusions of pyramidal, truncated
pyramidal, and "hut-cluster" shape. In these cases considerable simplification
was achieved in comparison with previously published solutions. A
generalization of the obtained solution to the case of anisotropic media is
discussed.

various stellar masses, explosion energies, and metallicities. Comparison with
the abundance patterns of metal-poor stars provides excellent opportunities to
test the explosion models and their nucleosynthesis. We show that the abundance
patterns of extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars, e.g., the excess of C, Co, Zn
relative to Fe, are in better agreement with the yields of hyper-energetic
explosions (Hypernovae, HNe) rather than normal supernovae.
We note that the variation of the abundance patterns of EMP stars are related
to the diversity of the Supernova-GRB connection. We summarize the diverse
properties of (1) GRB-SNe, (2) Non-GRB HNe/SNe, (3) XRF-SN, and (4) Non-SN GRB.
In particular, the Non-SN GRBs (dark hypernovae) have been predicted in order
to explain the origin of C-rich EMP stars. We show that these variations and
the connection can be modeled in a unified manner with the explosions induced
by relativistic jets. Finally, we examine whether the most luminous supernova
2006gy can be consistently explained with the pair-instability supernova model.

0707.2188 | Kenji Bekki dr | Kenji Bekki | On the Origin of the Kinematical Differences Between the Stellar Halo
and the Old Globular Cluster System in the Large Magellanic Cloud | 10 pages, 8 figures, accepted by MNRAS | null | 10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.12219.x | null | astro-ph | null | We discuss structural and kinematical properties of the stellar halo and the
old globular cluster system (GCS) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) based on
numerical simulations of the LMC formation. We particularly discuss the
observed possible GCS's rotational kinematics (V/sigma > 2) that appears to be
significantly different from the stellar halo's one with a large velocity
dispersion (~50 km/s). We consider that both halo field stars and old GCs can
originate from low-mass subhalos virialized at high redshifts (z >6). We
investigate the final dynamical properties of the two old components in the
LMC's halo formed from merging of low-mass subhalos with field stars and GCs.
We find that the GCS composed of old globular clusters (GCs) formed at high
redshifts (z > 6) has little rotation (V/sigma ~0.4) and structure and
kinematics similar to those of the stellar halo. This inconsistency between the
simulated GCS's kinematics and the observed one is found to be seen in models
with different parameters. This inconsistency therefore implies that if old,
metal-poor GCs in the LMC have rotational kinematics, they are highly unlikely
to originate from the low-mass subhalos that formed the stellar halo. We thus
discuss a scenario in which the stellar halo was formed from low-mass subhalos
with no/few GCs whereas the GCS was formed at the very early epoch of the LMC's
disk formation via dissipative minor and major merging of gas-rich subhalos and
gas infall. We suggest that there can be a threshold subhalo mass above which
GCs can be formed within subhalos at high redshifts and thus that this
threshold causes differences in physical properties between stellar halos and
GCSs in less luminous galaxies like the LMC.

to the Erd\"os-Sierpi\'nski problem finding positive integer solutions of
$\sigma(n)=\sigma(n+1)$, where $\sigma(n)$ is the sum of the positive divisors
of n. On the basis of that set of solutions the following empirical properties
are enunciated: first, all the $\sigma(n)$, $n$ being a solution, are divisible
by 6; second, the repetition of solutions leads to the formulation of a new
problem: \emph{Find the natural numbers $n$ such that
$\sigma(n)=\sigma(n+1)=\sigma(n+k)=\sigma(n+k+1)$ for some positive integer
$k$}. A third empirical property concerns the asymptotic behavior of the
function of $n$ that gives the number of solutions for $m$ less or equal to
$n$, which we find to be as $n^{1/3}$. Finally some theorems related to the
Erd\"os-Sierpi\'nski problem are enunciated and proved.

between such occurrences in Blogs. Due to the heterogeneity of words'
frequencies, the empirical analysis is performed by studying classes of
"frequently-equivalent" words, i.e. by grouping words depending on their
frequencies. Two limiting cases are considered: the dilute limit, i.e. for
those words that are used less than once a day, and the dense limit for
frequent words. In both cases, extreme events occur more frequently than
expected from the Poisson hypothesis. These deviations from Poisson statistics
reveal non-trivial time correlations between events that are associated with
bursts of activities. The distribution of waiting times is shown to behave like
a stretched exponential and to have the same shape for different sets of words
sharing a common frequency, thereby revealing universal features.

Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2000
revealed the triple nature of the nearby ($\pi_{Hip}=51.80\pm1.74$ mas)
low-mass young ($\approx200$ Myr) star GJ 900. The configuration of the triple
system allowed it to be dynamically unstable. Differential photometry performed
from 2000 through 2004 yielded $I$- and $K$-band absolute magnitudes and
spectral types for the components to be $I_{A}$=6.66$\pm$0.08,
$I_{B}$=9.15$\pm$0.11, $I_{C}$=10.08$\pm$0.26, $K_{A}$=4.84$\pm$0.08,
$K_{B}$=6.76$\pm$0.20, $K_{C}$=7.39$\pm$0.31, $Sp_{A}$$\approx$K5--K7,
$Sp_{B}$$\approx$M3--M4, $Sp_{C}$$\approx$M5--M6. The ``mass--luminosity''
relation is used to estimate the individual masses of the components:
$\mathcal{M}_{A}$$\approx0.64\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$,
$\mathcal{M}_{B}$$\approx0.21\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$,
$\mathcal{M}_{C}$$\approx0.13\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$. From the observations of the
components relative motion in the period 2000--2006, we conclude that GJ 900 is
a hierarchical triple star with the possible orbital periods
P$_{A-BC}$$\approx$80 yrs and P$_{BC}$$\approx$20 yrs. An analysis of the 2MASS
images of the region around GJ 900 leads us to suggest that the system can
include other very-low-mass components.

System Science (Springer Science) | null | null | null | physics.data-an physics.gen-ph | null | We review briefly the concepts underlying complex systems and probability
distributions. The later are often taken as the first quantitative
characteristics of complex systems, allowing one to detect the possible
occurrence of regularities providing a step toward defining a classification of
the different levels of organization (the ``universality classes''). A rapid
survey covers the Gaussian law, the power law and the stretched exponential
distributions. The fascination for power laws is then explained, starting from
the statistical physics approach to critical phenomena, out-of-equilibrium
phase transitions, self-organized criticality, and ending with a large but not
exhaustive list of mechanisms leading to power law distributions. A check-list
for testing and qualifying a power law distribution from your data is described
in 7 steps. This essay enlarges the description of distributions by proposing
that ``kings'', i.e., events even beyond the extrapolation of the power law
tail, may reveal an information which is complementary and perhaps sometimes
even more important than the power law distribution. We conclude a list of
future directions.

in special cases and it vanishes for separable states - a feature not captured
by the measures proposed earlier. It is found that an optimal generalized
measurement on one of the parts leaves the overall state in its closest
separable form, which shares the same marginal for the other part, implying
that quantumness is non-zero for all entangled bipartite states and it serves
as an upper bound to the relative entropy of entanglement.

many-body eigenstates, which have a dark solitonic notch in their

characteristic shape with two sharp spikes. We find that the two spikes arise
due to the high degree of correlation observed within the RSPDM between the
mirror points ($x$ and $-x$) with respect to the dark notch at $x=0$; the
correlations oscillate rather than decay as the points $x$ and $-x$ are being
separated.

Rashba spin-orbit interaction (Rashba medium) results in a mechanical torque on
a substrate near an edge of the medium. If the substrate is a cantilever, the
mechanical torque displaces the free end of the cantilever. The effect can be
enhanced and tuned by a magnetic field. Observation of this displacement would
be an effective method to prove existence of equilibrium spin currents. The
analysis of edges of the Rashba medium demonstrates the existence of localized
edge states. They form a 1D continuum of states. This suggests a new type of
quantum wire: spin-orbit quantum wire.

concentrated in a radius of ~35 arcmin, i.e. 1pc at the cluster distance of
97pc. No other members have been found up to 1.5 degrees from the cluster
centre. The cluster mass function is consistent with the IMF of other rich
young open clusters in the higher mass range but shows a clear deficit of low
mass stars and brown dwarfs with no objects below 0.1Msun. The aim of this
paper is to test whether this peculiar mass function could result from
dynamical evolution despite the young age of the cluster. We performed N-body
numerical calculations starting with a log-normal IMF and different initial
conditions in terms of number of systems and cluster radius using the code
NBODY3. We simulated the cluster dynamical evolution over 10 Myr and compared
the results to the observations. We found that it is possible to reproduce eta
Cha when starting with a very compact configuration (with Ninit=40 and
R0=0.005pc) which suggests that the IMF of the association might not be
abnormal. The high initial density might also explain the deficit of wide
binaries that is observed in the cluster.

the position of the acoustic peak at the last scattering surface from the
Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) observations and the baryon
acoustic oscillation peak found in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) are used
to constrain the free parameters of this model. To infer its consistency with
the age of the Universe, we compare the age of old cosmological objects with
what computed using the best fit values for the model parameters. At 68% level
of confidence, the combination of Gold sample SNIa, Cosmic Microwave Background
(CMB) shift parameter and SDSS databases provide
$\Omega_m=0.29_{-0.02}^{+0.03}$, $\Omega_{A}=-0.71_{-0.03}^{+0.03}$ and
$\mu=-0.40_{-0.26}^{+0.28}$, hence a spatially flat Universe with
$\Omega_K=0.00_{-0.04}^{+0.04}$. The same combination with SNLS supernova
observation give $\Omega_m=0.27_{-0.02}^{+0.02}$,
$\Omega_{A}=-0.74_{-0.02}^{+0.04}$ and $\mu=0.00_{-0.30}^{+0.30}$ consequently
provides a spatially flat Universe $\Omega_K=-0.01_{-0.03}^{+0.04}$. These
results obviously seem to be compatible with the most recent WMAP results
indicating a flat Universe.

voltage biased magnetic quantum point contact with superconducting leads is
theoretically studied. The I-V characteristics are calculated for the whole
range of spin filtering and spin mixing parameters. It is found that with
increasing of spin filtering the subharmonic step structure of the dc electric
current, typical for low-transparency junction and junction without
considerable spin filtering qualitatively changes. In the lower voltage region
and for small enough spin mixing the peak structure arises. When spin mixing
increases the peak subgap structure evolves to the step structure. The voltages
where subharmonic gap features are located are found to be sensitive to the
value of spin filtering. The positions of peaks and steps are calculated
analytically and the evolution of the subgap structure from well-known tunnel
limit to the large spin filtering case is explained in terms of multiple
Andreev reflection (MAR) processes. In particular, it is found that for large
spin filtering the subgap feature at $eV_k$ arises from $2k^{\rm th}$ and
$(2k\pm 1)^{\rm th}$ order MAR processes, while in the tunnel limit the step at
$eV_n$ is known to result from $n^{\rm th}$ order MAR process.

peaks in the absorption spectra of the DWNTs, no matter what kind of the outer
tube is, offering a powerful experimental tool to measure precisely the chiral
angle of the inner tube of a DWNT.

superoutburst | 15 pages, 9 figures. Accepted for publication in the Journal of the
British Astronomical Association | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | We report unfiltered CCD observations of the first confirmed superoutburst of
the SU UMa-type dwarf nova SS LMi in October 2006. From a quiescent magnitude
of around 21.7 it rose to 16.2, an outburst amplitude of about 5.5 magnitudes.
It declined at 0.17 mag/d for 5 days before slowing to 0.11 mag/d for a further
3 days. The light curve revealed common superhumps with a peak-to-peak
amplitude of 0.3 magnitude, which decayed and then re-grew concurrently with
the change in decline rate. These were followed by a phase-changing transition
to late superhumps. Analysis of these observations has revealed evidence for an
orbital period of 0.05572(19) d and a common superhump period of 0.05664(2) d,
giving a fractional superhump period excess of 0.017(5). From astrometry of SS
LMi in outburst we have established for the first time its correct position as
RA 10h 34m 05.85(1)s, Dec +31deg 08m 00.00(18)s (J2000). The position commonly
given for SS LMi is that of a nearby star.

single crystal. Ac susceptibility at frequencies 10 - 1500 Hz has been measured
in parallel to the crystal surface DC felds, H0. We found that in the DC feld
H0 > Hc2 DC magnetic moment completely disappears while the ac response
exhibited the presence of superconductivity at the surface. Increasing of the
DC field from Hc2 revealed the enlarging of losses with a maximum in the feld
between Hc2 and Hc3. Losses at the maximum were considerably larger than in the
mixed and in the normal states. The value of the DC field, where loss peak was
observed, depends on the amplitude and frequency of the ac feld. Close to Tc
this peak shifts below Hc2 which showed the coexistence of surface
superconducting states and Abrikosov vortices. We observed a logarithmic
frequency dependence of the in-phase component of the susceptibility. Such
frequency dispersion of the inphase component resembles the response of
spin-glass systems, but the out-of-phase component also exhibited frequency
dispersion that is not a known feature of the classic spin-glass response.
Analysis of the experimental data with Kramers-Kronig relations showed the
possible existence of the loss peak at very low frequencies (< 5 Hz). We found
that the amplitude of the third harmonic was not a cubic function of the ac
amplitude even at considerably weak ac felds. This does not leave any room for
treating the nonlinear effects on the basis of perturbation theory. We show
that the conception of surface vortices or surface critical currents could not
adequately describe the existing experimental data. Consideration of a model of
slow relaxing nonequilibrium order parameter permits one to explain the partial
shielding and losses of weak ac field for H0 > Hc2.

of the Conference ``A LIFE WITH STARS'' | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | The connection between long Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) and Supernovae (SNe),
have been established through the well observed cases of GRB980425/SN 1998bw,
GRB030329/SN 2003dh and GRB031203/SN 2003lw. These events can be explained as
the prompt collapse to a black hole (BH) of the core of a massive star (M ~ 40
Msun) that had lost its outer hydrogen and helium envelopes. All these SNe
exhibited strong oxygen lines, and their energies were much larger than those
of typical SNe, thus these SNe are called Hypernovae (HNe). The case of SN
2006aj/GRB060218 appears different: the GRB was weak and soft (an X-Ray Flash,
XRF); the SN is dimmer and has very weak oxygen lines. The explosion energy of
SN 2006aj was smaller, as was the ejected mass. In our model, the progenitor
star had a smaller mass than other GRB/SNe (M ~ 20 Msun), suggesting that a
neutron star (NS) rather than a black hole was formed. If the nascent neutron
star was strongly magnetized (a so-called magnetar) and rapidly spinning, it
may launch a weak GRB or an XRF. The final fate of 20-30 Msun stars show
interesting variety, as seen in the very peculiar Type Ib/c SN 2005bf. This
mass range corresponds to the NS to BH transition. We also compare the
nucleosynthesis feature of HNe with the metal-poor stars and suggest the
Hypernova-First Star connection.

We consider the full set of Coulomb amplitudes and show that the interference
between the hadronic non-flip amplitude and the single-flip Coulomb amplitude
is sufficient to obtain a good agreement with the present experimental data.
This leads us to conclude that the single-flip hadronic amplitude is small in
this low momentum transfer region and it strongly suggests that this process
can be used as an absolute polarimeter at the BNL-RHIC $pp$ collider.

with it leading to energy and angular momentum exchange. This interaction
determines the evolution of the planet through changes to the orbital
parameters. We investigate changes in the orbital elements of a 20 Earth--mass
planet due to the torques from the disk. We focus on the non-linear evolution
of initially non-vanishing eccentricity $e$ and/or inclination $i$. We treat
the disk as a two- or three-dimensional viscous fluid and perform
hydrodynamical simulations with an embedded planet. We find rapid exponential
decay of the planet orbital eccentricity and inclination for small initial
values of $e$ and $i$, in agreement with linear theory. For larger values of $e
> 0.1$ the decay time increases and the decay rate scales as $\dot{e} \propto
e^{-2}$, consistent with existing theoretical models. For large inclinations
($i$ > 6 deg) the inclination decay rate shows an identical scaling $di/dt
\propto i^{-2}$. We find an interesting dependence of the migration on the
eccentricity. In a disk with aspect ratio $H/r=0.05$ the migration rate is
enhanced for small non-zero eccentricities ($e < 0.1$), while for larger values
we see a significant reduction by a factor of $\sim 4$. We find no indication
for a reversal of the migration for large $e$, although the torque experienced
by the planet becomes positive when $e \simeq 0.3$. This inward migration is
caused by the persisting energy loss of the planet.
For non gap forming planets, eccentricity and inclination damping occurs on a
time scale that is very much shorter than the migration time scale. The results
of non linear hydrodynamic simulations are in very good agreement with linear
theory for small $e$ and $i$.

manipulators | null | Journal of Mechanical Design 129, 12 (12/2007) 1-6 | null | null | cs.RO | null | This paper investigates two situations in which the forward kinematics of
planar 3-RPR parallel manipulators degenerates. These situations have not been
addressed before. The first degeneracy arises when the three input joint
variables r1, r2 and r3 satisfy a certain relationship. This degeneracy yields
a double root of the characteristic polynomial in t, which could be erroneously
interpreted as two coalesce assembly modes. But, unlike what arises in
non-degenerate cases, this double root yields two sets of solutions for the
position coordinates (x, y) of the platform. In the second situation, we show
that the forward kinematics degenerates over the whole joint space if the base
and platform triangles are congruent and the platform triangle is rotated by
180 deg about one of its sides. For these "degenerate" manipulators, which are
defined here for the first time, the forward kinematics is reduced to the
solution of a 3rd-degree polynomial and a quadratics in sequence. Such
manipulators constitute, in turn, a new family of analytic planar manipulators
that would be more suitable for industrial applications.

(IRCCyN) | Kinematic Analysis of a Family of 3R Manipulators | null | Problems of Mechanics 15, 2 (07/2004) 27-32 | null | null | cs.RO | null | The workspace topologies of a family of 3-revolute (3R) positioning
manipulators are enumerated. The workspace is characterized in a half-cross
section by the singular curves. The workspace topology is defined by the number
of cusps that appear on these singular curves. The design parameters space is
shown to be divided into five domains where all manipulators have the same
number of cusps. Each separating surface is given as an explicit expression in
the DH-parameters. As an application of this work, we provide a necessary and
sufficient condition for a 3R orthogonal manipulator to be cuspidal, i.e. to
change posture without meeting a singularity. This condition is set as an
explicit expression in the DH parameters.

Architecture | null | Journal of Mechanical Design 125, 2 (06/2003) 275-280 | null | null | cs.RO | null | A spherical wrist of the serial type with n revolute (R) joints is said to be
isotropic if it can attain a posture whereby the singular values of its
Jacobian matrix are all equal to sqrt(n/3). What isotropy brings about is
robustness to manufacturing, assembly, and measurement errors, thereby
guaranteeing a maximum orientation accuracy. In this paper we investigate the
existence of redundant isotropic architectures, which should add to the
dexterity of the wrist under design by virtue of its extra degree of freedom.
The problem formulation, for, leads to a system of eight quadratic equations
with eight unknowns. The Bezout number of this system is thus 2^8=256, its BKK
bound being 192. However, the actual number of solutions is shown to be 32. We
list all solutions of the foregoing algebraic problem. All these solutions are
real, but distinct solutions do not necessarily lead to distinct manipulators.
Upon discarding those algebraic solutions that yield no new wrists, we end up
with exactly eight distinct architectures, the eight corresponding manipulators
being displayed at their isotropic postures.
