model.
A remarkable feature is the fact that the number of produced muons is
considerably larger compared to other interaction models. We show that this is
due to an improved treatment of baryon-antibaryon production.

Regge calculus | 18 pages, 4 figures | null | null | null | hep-th gr-qc | null | Because of unboundedness of the general relativity action, Euclidean version
of the path integral in general relativity requires definition. Area tensor
Regge calculus is considered in the representation with independent area tensor
and finite rotation matrices. Being integrated over rotation matrices the path
integral measure in area tensor Regge calculus is rewritten by moving
integration contours to complex plain so that it looks as that one with
effective action in the exponential with positive real part. We speculate that
positivity of the measure can be expected in the most part of range of
variation of area tensors.

for the compact Gowdy models coupled to massless scalar fields as a necessary
first step towards their quantization. We will pay special attention to the
coupling of matter and those features that arise for the three-handle and
three-sphere topologies that are not present in the well studied three torus
case -in particular the polar constraints that come from the regularity
conditions on the metric. As a byproduct of our analysis we will get an
alternative understanding, within the Hamiltonian framework, of the appearance
of initial and final singularities for these models.

Matches published version | Phys.Rev.D76:103532,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.103532 | null | astro-ph | null | Dark matter annihilation in so-called ``spikes'' near black holes is believed
to be an important method of indirect dark matter detection. In the case of
circular particle orbits, the density profile of dark matter has a plateau at
small radii, the maximal density being limited by the annihilation
cross-section. However, in the general case of arbitrary velocity anisotropy
the situation is different. Particulary, for isotropic velocity distribution
the density profile cannot be shallower than r^{-1/2} in the very centre.
Indeed, a detailed study reveals that in many cases the term ``annihilation
plateau'' is misleading, as the density actually continues to rise towards
small radii and forms a weak cusp, rho ~ r^{-(beta+1/2)}, where beta is the
anisotropy coefficient. The annihilation flux, however, does not change much in
the latter case, if averaged over an area larger than the annihilation radius.

QSOs at z>5 aimed at detecting molecular gas in their host galaxies as traced
by CO transitions. CO (5-4) is detected in SDSSJ033829.31+002156.3 at z=5.0267,
placing it amongst the most distant sources detected in CO. The CO emission is
unresolved with a beam size of ~1", implying that the molecular gas is
contained within a compact region, less than ~3kpc in radius. We infer an upper
limit on the dynamical mass of the CO emitting region of ~3x10^10
Msun/sin(i)^2. The comparison with the Black Hole mass inferred from near-IR
data suggests that the BH-to-bulge mass ratio in this galaxy is significantly
higher than in local galaxies. From the CO luminosity we infer a mass reservoir
of molecular gas as high as M(H2)=2.4x10^10 Msun, implying that the molecular
gas accounts for a significant fraction of the dynamical mass. When compared to
the star formation rate derived from the far-IR luminosity, we infer a very
short gas exhaustion timescale (~10^7 yrs), comparable to the dynamical
timescale. CO is not detected in the other two QSOs (SDSSJ083643.85+005453.3
and SDSSJ163033.90+401209.6) and upper limits are given for their molecular gas
content. When combined with CO observations of other type 1 AGNs, spanning a
wide redshift range (0<z<6.4), we find that the host galaxy CO luminosity
(hence molecular gas content) and the AGN optical luminosity (hence BH
accretion rate) are correlated, but the relation is not linear: L(CO) ~
[lambda*L_lambda(4400A)]^0.72. Moreover, at high redshifts (and especially at
z>5) the CO luminosity appears to saturate. We discuss the implications of
these findings in terms of black hole-galaxy co-evolution.

curvature, we derive an upper bound for the capacity of the surface in terms of
the area of the surface and the Willmore functional of the surface. The
capacity of a surface is defined to be the energy of the harmonic function
which equals 0 on the surface and goes to 1 at infinity. Even in the special
case of Euclidean space, this is a new estimate. More generally, equality holds
precisely for a spherically symmetric sphere in a spatial Schwarzschild
3-manifold. As applications, we obtain inequalities relating the capacity of
the surface to the Hawking mass of the surface and the total mass of the
asymptotically flat manifold.

elegantly described by Brouwer's formula. Interactions within the dot, while
suppressing phase coherence, make Brouwer's formalism inapplicable. In this
paper, we discuss the nature of the physical processes forcing a description of
pumping beyond Brouwer's formula, and develop, using a controlled adiabatic
expansion, a useful formalism to study the effect of interactions within a
generic perturbative scheme. The pumped current consists of a first
contribution, analogous to Brouwer's formula and accounting for the remanent
coherence, and of interaction corrections describing inelastic scattering. We
apply the formalism to study the effect of interaction with a bosonic bath on a
resonant level pump and discuss the robustness of the quantization of the
pumped charge in turnstile cycles.

disorder in the (de)localization transition of polymer pinning models. Notably,
there is an understanding of the crucial issue of disorder relevance and
irrelevance that is now rigorous. In this work, we exploit interpolation and
replica coupling methods to obtain sharper results on the irrelevant disorder
regime of pinning models. In particular, in this regime, we compute the first
order term in the expansion of the free energy close to criticality and this
term coincides with the first order of the formal expansion obtained by field
theory methods. We also show that the quenched and quenched averaged
correlation length exponents coincide, while, in general, they are expected to
be different. Interpolation and replica coupling methods in this class of
models naturally lead to studying the behavior of the intersection of certain
renewal sequences and one of the main tools in this work is precisely renewal
theory and the study of these intersection renewals.

The complexity of a calculation grows with the number of internal loops as well
as with the number of external legs. Automatisation of at least next-to-leading
order calculations for LHC processes is therefore a timely task. I will discuss
various approaches.

Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (THDM). This is done in a concise way using real gauge
invariant functions built from the scalar products of the doublet fields. The
space of these invariant functions, parametrising the gauge orbits of the Higgs
fields, is isomorphic to the forward light cone and its interior. CP
transformations are shown to correspond to reflections in the space of the
gauge invariant functions. We consider CP transformations where no mixing of
the Higgs doublets is taken into account as well as the general case where the
Higgs basis is not fixed. We present basis independent conditions for explicit
CP violation which may be checked easily for any THDM potential. Conditions for
spontaneous CP violation, that is CP violation through the vacuum expectation
values of the Higgs fields, are also derived in a basis independent way.

disordered La0.5Ba0.5CoO3 and ordered LaBaCo2O6, exhibits a ferromagnetic
transition at TC around 179 K. However, it differs from the two previous forms
by its strong magnetic anisotropy, and correlatively by its high value of
coercivity (0.42 Tesla) at low temperature. We suggest that this behaviour
originates from the locking of magnetic spins in the 90 degree oriented
nano-domain. Moreover, one observes a semi-metal/semi-metal transition at TC
with a maximum magnetoresistance of 6.5 % at this temperature.

This hampers an accurate treatment of rotational line broadening. We aim to
find a treatment of rotational broadening of a spherical star when the
radiation field is only available at a modest number of limb-angles. We apply a
combination of analytical considerations of the line-broadening process and
numerical tests. We obtain a method which is closely related to classical flux
convolution and which performs noticeably better than a previously suggested
procedure. It can be applied to rigid as well as differential rotation.

nanotubes with an energy gap evident at low temperatures. Here, a comprehensive
theory for the magnetic field and temperature dependent NMR 13C spin-lattice
relaxation is given in the framework of the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid. The low
temperature properties are governed by a gapped relaxation due to a spin gap (~
30K), which crosses over smoothly to the Luttinger liquid behaviour with
increasing temperature.

physics | 74 pages, Review based on Talks | null | null | null | hep-ph astro-ph gr-qc hep-th | null | In this brief review we will discuss how a well motivated particle theory
beyond the eletroweak Standard Model provides ingredients and conditions for a
successful inflation. We will mainly focus on a low energy supersymmetric
Standard Model which provides plenty of scalars. In particular, these scalars
span a multidimensional moduli space of {\it gauge invariant} operators which
carry the Standard Model charges. The inflationary predictions which matches
the current observations are robust due to the fact that inflation occurs
within our own gauge sector where the couplings are well known. We further
argue that based on our current understandings if there exists a {\it string
landscape} of multiple vacua, then it is very natural that the last phase of
inflation would be driven by one of the many supersymmetric Standard Model
modulii. Only such a graceful exit from inflation would provide hot thermal
Standard Model baryons, cold dark matter, conditions for baryogenesis and
foremost the seed density perturbations for the cosmic microwave background
radiation in just {\it one package}. Furthermore we will also discuss how some
of the ingredients of inflation can be tested already by the LHC.

significantly improved by asymmetric couplings, and increase of coupling
gradient is always in favor of network synchronization. Here we argue and
demonstrate that, for typical complex networks, there usually exists an optimal
coupling gradient under which the maximum network synchronizability is
achieved. After this optimal value, increase of coupling gradient could
deteriorate synchronization. We attribute the suppression of network
synchronization at large gradient to the phenomenon of network breaking, and
find that, in comparing with sparsely connected homogeneous networks, densely
connected heterogeneous networks have the superiority of adopting large
gradient. The findings are supported by indirect simulations of eigenvalue
analysis and direct simulations of coupled nonidentical oscillator networks.

Accepted for publication in MNRAS | MNRAS, 381, 589 (2007) | 10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.12253.x | null | astro-ph | null | (Abridged) We have studied the relationship among nuclear radio and X-ray
power, Bondi rate and the kinetic luminosity of sub-Eddington active galactic
nuclear (AGN) jets. Besides the recently discovered correlation between jet
kinetic and Bondi power, we show that a clear correlation exists also between
Eddington-scaled kinetic power and bolometric luminosity, given by:
Log(L_kin/L_Edd)=0.49*Log(L_bol/L_Edd)-0.78. The measured slope suggests that
these objects are in a radiatively inefficient accretion mode, and has been
used to put stringent constraints on the properties of the accretion flow. We
found no statistically significant correlations between Bondi power and
bolometric AGN luminosity, apart from that induced by their common dependence
on L_kin. Analyzing the relation between kinetic power and radio core
luminosity, we are then able to determine, statistically, both the probability
distribution of the mean jets Lorentz factor, peaking at \Gamma~7, and the
intrinsic relation between kinetic and radio core luminosity, that we estimate
as: Log(L_kin)=0.81*Log(L_R)+11.9, in good agreement with theoretical
predictions of synchrotron jet models. With the aid of these findings,
quantitative assessments of kinetic feedback from supermassive black holes in
the radio mode will be possible based on accurate determinations of the central
engine properties alone. As an example, Sgr A* may follow the correlations of
radio mode AGN, based on its observed radiative output and on estimates of the
accretion rate both at the Bondi radius and in the inner flow. If this is the
case, the SMBH in the Galactic center is the source of ~ 5 times 10^38 ergs/s
of mechanical power, equivalent to about 1.5 supernovae every 10^5 years.

generators of the diffeomorphism group and the algebra of infinitely
differentiable functions on the manifold. This leads to a unique
("Lie-Rinehart") C* algebra as observable algebra; its regular representations
are shown to be locally Schroedinger and in one to one correspondence with the
unitary representations of the fundamental group of the manifold. Therefore, in
the absence of spin degrees of freedom and external fields, the first homotopy
group of the manifold appears as the only source of topological effects.

generation space for changing energy scale, then the masses of the lower
generations are not given just by its eigenvalues. In particular, these masses
need not be zero even when the eigenvalues are zero. In that case, the strong
CP problem can be avoided by removing the unwanted $\theta$ term by a chiral
transformation in no contradiction with the nonvanishing quark masses
experimentally observed. Similarly, a rotating mass matrix may shed new light
on the problem of chiral symmetry breaking. That the fermion mass matrix may so
rotate with scale has been suggested before as a possible explanation for
up-down fermion mixing and fermion mass hierarchy, giving results in good
agreement with experiment.

(non-perturbative) impact on the evolution of the Hubble scale in the context
of the four-dimensional FRW cosmology. After taking into account the quantum
ambiguities in the definition of the off-shell superstring effective action, we
propose the generalized Friedmann equations, find the existence of their (de
Sitter) exact inflationary solutions without a spacetime singularity, and
constrain the ambiguities by demanding stability and the scale factor duality
invariance of our solutions. The most naive (Bel-Robinson tensor squared)
quartic terms are ruled out, thus giving the evidence for the necessity of
extra quartic (Ricci tensor-dependent) terms in the off-shell gravitational
effective action for superstrings. Our methods are generalizable to the higher
orders in the spacetime curvature.

archival observations performed in February 2002 and January 2003 (the latter
already reported by Gohler et al. 2005) in order to study the long term
behaviour of this AXP. 4U 0142+614 appears to be relatively steady in flux
between 2002 and 2004, and the phase-averaged spectrum does not show any
significant variability between the four epochs. We derive the deepest upper
limits to date on the presence of lines in the 4U 0142+614 spectrum as a
function of energy: equivalent width in the 1-3 keV energy range < 4 eV and < 8
eV for narrow and broad lines, respectively. A remarkable energy dependence in
both the pulse profile and the pulsed fraction is detected, and consequently
pulse-phase spectroscopy shows spectral variability as a function of phase. By
making use of XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL data, we successfully model the 1-250 keV
spectrum of 4U 0142+614 with three models presented in Rea et al. (2007a),
namely the canonical absorbed blackbody plus two power-laws, a resonant
cyclotron scattering model plus one power-law and two log-parabolic functions.

theoretic formalism from a covariant Bethe-Salpeter approach for the
determination of the bound state. We apply our formalism to the Nambu - Jona
Lasinio model, as a realistic theory of the pion. The obtained vector and axial
TDAs satisfy all features required by general considerations. In particular,
sum rules and polynomiality condition are explicitly verified. We have
numerically proved that the odd coefficients in the polynomiality expansion of
the vector TDA vanish in the chiral limit. The role of PCAC and the presence of
a pion pole are explicitly shown.

the belt collide with each other. Combining methods of celestial mechanics and
statistical physics, we calculate mean collisional velocities and collisional
rates, averaged over the belt. The results are compared to collisional
velocities and rates in a similar, but non-resonant belt, as predicted by the
particle-in-a-box method. It is found that the effect of the resonant lock on
the velocities is rather small, while on the rates more substantial. The
collisional rates between objects in an external resonance are by about a
factor of two higher than those in a similar belt of objects not locked in a
resonance. For Trojans under the same conditions, the collisional rates may be
enhanced by up to an order of magnitude. Our results imply, in particular,
shorter collisional lifetimes of resonant Kuiper belt objects in the solar
system and higher efficiency of dust production by resonant planetesimals in
debris disks around other stars.

Schr\"odinger equation on a class of rotationally symmetric noncompact
manifolds, generalizing the known results on hyperbolic and Damek-Ricci spaces.
This yields classical Strichartz estimates with a larger class of exponents
than in the Euclidian case and improvements for the scattering theory. The
manifolds, whose volume element grows polynomially or exponentially at
infinity, are characterized essentially by negativity conditions on the
curvature, which shows in particular that the rich algebraic structure of the
Hyperbolic and Damek-Ricci spaces is not the cause of the improved dispersive
properties of the equation. The proofs are based on known dispersive results
for the equation with potential on the Euclidean space, and on a new one, valid
for C^1 potentials decaying like 1/r^2 at infinity.

profile evolution of a free surface film of a binary mixture. An example is a
thin film of a polymer blend on a solid substrate undergoing simultaneous phase
separation and dewetting. The model is based on model-H describing the coupled
transport of the mass of one component (convective Cahn-Hilliard equation) and
momentum (Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations) supplemented by appropriate
boundary conditions at the solid substrate and the free surface.
General transport equations are derived using phenomenological
non-equilibrium thermodynamics for a general non-isothermal setting taking into
account Soret and Dufour effects and interfacial viscosity for the internal
diffuse interface between the two components. Focusing on an isothermal setting
the resulting model is compared to literature results and its base states
corresponding to homogeneous or vertically stratified flat layers are analysed.

hypergeometric equation. Both algebraic and transcendental methods are used and
the story involves affine Weyl groups, braid groups and cubic surfaces. Some
emphasis is given to the interpretation of the sixth Painleve equation as the
explicit form of the simplest nonabelian Gauss-Manin connection, i.e. as a
nonlinear differential equation 'coming from geometry', much as Picard-Fuchs
equations arise in the case of cohomology with abelian coefficients.

account the impact of infalling gas on both the star formation history and the
corresponding outflow structure, the apparition of a supernovae-driven wind
being highly sensitive to the halo mass, the galaxy spin and the star formation
efficiency. We model our galaxies as cooling and collapsing NFW spheres. The
dark matter component is modelled as a static external potential, while the
baryon component is described by the Euler equations using the AMR code RAMSES.
Metal-dependent cooling and supernovae-heating are also implemented using
state-of-the-art recipes coming from cosmological simulations. We allow for 3
parameters to vary: the halo circular velocity, the spin parameter and the star
formation efficiency. We found that the ram pressure of infalling material is
the key factor limiting the apparition of galactic winds. We obtain a very low
feedback efficiency, with supernovae to wind energy conversion factor around
one percent, so that only low cicrular velocity galaxies give rise to strong
winds. For massive galaxies, we obtain a galatic fountain, for which we discuss
the observational properties. We conclude that for quiescent isolated galaxies,
galactic winds appear only in very low mass systems. Although that can quite
efficiently enrich the IGM with metals, they don't carry away enough cold
material to solve the overcooling problem.

parts, which can be calculated separately: a purely quantum-mechanical
contribution which is generated from the interference among quantized field
modes around the time when they cross the horizon, and a classical contribution
which comes from integrating the effect of field modes which have already
passed far beyond the horizon. The loop correction contains logarithms which
may invalidate the use of naive perturbation theory for cosmic microwave
background (CMB) predictions when the scale associated with the CMB is
exponentially different from the scale at which the fundamental theory which
governs inflation is formulated.

calculated over the whole reciprocal space. In one dimension, the scattered
intensity by a vicinal surface, the two-level model, the N-level model, the
faceted surface and the rough surface are addressed. In two dimensions, the
previous results are generalized to the kinked vicinal surface, the two-level
vicinal surface and the step meandering on a vicinal surface. The concept of
crystal truncation rod is generalized considering also the truncation of a
terrace by a step (yielding a terrace truncation rod) and a step by a kink
(yielding a step truncation rod).

0707.3385 | Alain Leger | Alain Leger, Tom Herbst, et al | DARWIN mission proposal to ESA | This a compressed version of the DARWIN mission proposal to ESA for
its "Cosmic Vision" 2015-2025 program A full resolution version can be
obtained from the Web site indicated on the cover page | null | null | null | astro-ph | null | The discovery of extra-solar planets is one of the greatest achievements of
modern astronomy. There are now more than 200 such objects known, and the
recent detection of planets with masses approximately 5 times that of Earth
demonstrates that extra-solar planets of low mass exist. In addition to
providing a wealth of scientific information on the formation and structure of
planetary systems, these discoveries capture the interest of both scientists
and the wider public with the profound prospect of the search for life in the
Universe. We propose an L-type mission, called Darwin, whose primary goal is
the study of terrestrial extrasolar planets and the search for life on them. By
its very nature, Darwin advances the first Grand Theme of ESA Cosmic Vision.
Accomplishing the mission objectives will require collaborative science across
disciplines ranging from planet formation and atmospheres to chemistry and
biology, and these disciplines will reap profound rewards from their
contributions to the Darwin mission.

(in Press). arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:astro-ph/0109215 | null | null | null | gr-qc | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | In this paper we present the equations of the evolution of the universe in
$D$ spatial dimensions, as a generalization of the work of Lima \citep{lima}.
We discuss the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological equations in $D$ spatial
dimensions for a simple fluid with equation of state $p=\omega_{D}\rho$. It is
possible to reduce the multidimensional equations to the equation of a point
particle system subject to a linear force. This force can be expressed as an
oscillator equation, anti-oscillator or a free particle equation, depending on
the $k$ parameter of the spatial curvature. An interesting result is the
independence on the dimension $D$ in a de Sitter evolution. We also stress the
generality of this procedure with a cosmological $\Lambda$ term. A more
interesting result is that the reduction of the dimensionality leads naturally
to an accelerated expansion of the scale factor in the plane case.

research fields by applying theories and methods originally developed in
physics in order to solve problems in economics, social science, biology,
medicine, technology, etc. In their turn, these different branches of science
inspire the invention of new concepts in physics. A basic tool of analysis, in
such a context, is the mathematical theory of complexity concerned with the
study of complex systems including human economies, climate, nervous systems,
cells and living things, including human beings, as well as modern energy or
communication infrastructures which are all networks of some kind. Recently,
complexity has become a natural domain of interest of the real world
socio-cognitive systems, linguistics, and emerging systemics research. The
phenomena to be studied and understood arise from neither the physical laws nor
the abstraction of mathematics. The challenge is to discern and formulate
plausible mathematical structures to describe problems that represent vague
human goals.

Minor revisions | Phys.Lett.B658:90-94,2007 | 10.1016/j.physletb.2007.09.070 | null | nucl-th | null | A previously introduced relativistic energy density functional, successfully
applied to ordinary nuclei, is extended to hypernuclei. The density-dependent
mean field and the spin-orbit potential are consistently calculated for a
$\Lambda$ hyperon in the nucleus using the SU(3) extension of in-medium chiral
perturbation theory. The leading long range $\Lambda N$ interaction arises from
kaon-exchange and $2\pi$-exchange with $\Sigma$ hyperon in the intermediate
state. Scalar and vector mean fields reflecting in-medium changes of the quark
condensates are constrained by QCD sum rules. The model, applied to oxygen as a
test case, describes spectroscopic data in good agreement with experiment. In
particular, the smallness of the $\Lambda$ spin-orbit interaction finds a
natural explanation in terms of an almost complete cancellation between
scalar-vector background contributions and long-range terms generated by
two-pion exchange.

block 1-norm, i.e., a sum of Euclidean norms over spaces of dimensions larger
than one. This problem, referred to as the group Lasso, extends the usual
regularization by the 1-norm where all spaces have dimension one, where it is
commonly referred to as the Lasso. In this paper, we study the asymptotic model
consistency of the group Lasso. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions
for the consistency of group Lasso under practical assumptions, such as model
misspecification. When the linear predictors and Euclidean norms are replaced
by functions and reproducing kernel Hilbert norms, the problem is usually
referred to as multiple kernel learning and is commonly used for learning from
heterogeneous data sources and for non linear variable selection. Using tools
from functional analysis, and in particular covariance operators, we extend the
consistency results to this infinite dimensional case and also propose an
adaptive scheme to obtain a consistent model estimate, even when the necessary
condition required for the non adaptive scheme is not satisfied.

which compare favorably to high-level quantum-chemistry techniques but at

using the revPBE functional for exchange. The new functional correctly predicts
changes in energy upon addition of halogen substituents.

derived from the covariant stress-energy conservation of the brane matter. The
world sheet equations and boundary conditions are obtained in the pole-dipole
approximation, where nontrivial brane thickness gives rise to its intrinsic
angular momentum. It is shown that intrinsic angular momentum couples to both,
the background curvature and the brane orbital degrees of freedom. The whole
procedure is manifestly covariant with respect to spacetime diffeomorphisms and
world sheet reparametrizations. In addition, two extra gauge symmetries are
discovered and utilized. The examples of the point particle and the string in 4
spacetime dimensions are analyzed in more detail. A particular attention is
paid to the Nambu-Goto string with massive spinning particles attached to its
ends.

phenomena known from free atoms and are thus promising candidates for
fundamental quantum optical studies. However, the existing techniques for the
detection of single molecules have either sacrificed the information on the
coherence of the excited state or have been inefficient. Here we show that
these problems can be addressed by focusing the excitation light near to the
absorption cross section of a molecule. Our detection scheme allows us to
explore resonance fluorescence over 9 orders of magnitude of excitation
intensity and to separate its coherent and incoherent parts. In the strong
excitation regime, we demonstrate the first observation of the Mollow triplet
from a single solid-state emitter. Under weak excitation we report the
detection of a single molecule with an incident power as faint as 150 attoWatt,
paving the way for studying nonlinear effects with only a few photons.

resulting nonlinear ordinary differential equation for the satellite's
temperature is analysed by qualitative, perturbation and numerical methods,
which show that the temperature approaches a periodic pattern (attracting limit
cycle). This approach can occur in two ways, according to the values of the
parameters: (i) a slow decay towards the limit cycle over a time longer than
the period, or (ii) a fast decay towards the limit cycle over a time shorter
than the period. In the first case, an exactly soluble average equation is
valid. We discuss the consequences of our model for the thermal stability of

self-driven particles can be achieved via sharply reduced communication cost,
especially for high density particle groups with low external noise.
Statistical numerical evidence illustrates that a highly efficient manner is to
distribute the communication messages as evenly as possible along the whole
dynamic process, since it minimizes the communication redundancy. More
surprisingly, it is discovered that there exist some abnormal regions where
moderately decreasing the communication cost can even improve the
synchronization performance. A phase diagram on the noise-density parameter
space is given, where the dynamical behaviors can be divided into three
qualitatively different phases: normal phase where better synchronization
corresponds to higher communication cost, abnormal phase where moderately
decreasing communication cost could even improve the synchronization, and the
disordered phase where no coherence among individuals is observed.

Chern-Connes pairing in the "no-dimension drop" case included | null | null | null | math.QA math.KT | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | The purpose of the paper is twofold: First, known results of the
noncommutative spin geometry of the standard Podles sphere are extended by
discussing Poincare duality and orientability. In the discussion of
orientability, Hochschild homology is replaced by a twisted version which
avoids the dimension drop. The twisted Hochschild cycle representing an
orientation is related to the volume form of the distinguished covariant
differential calculus. Integration over the volume form defines a twisted
cyclic 2-cocycle which computes the q-winding numbers of quantum line bundles.
Second, a "twisted" Chern character from equivariant K0-theory to even twisted
cyclic homology is introduced which gives rise to a Chern-Connes pairing
between equivariant K0-theory and twisted cyclic cohomology. The Chern-Connes
pairing between the equivariant K0-group of the standard Podles sphere and the
generators of twisted cyclic cohomology relative to the modular automorphism
and its inverse are computed. This includes the pairings with the twisted
cyclic 2-cocycle associated to the volume form, and the one corresponding to
the "no-dimension drop" case. From explicit index computations, it follows that
the pairings with these cocycles give the q-indices of the known equivariant
0-summable Dirac operator on the standard Podles sphere.

multiband eigenvalue solver, called the locally optimal block preconditioned
conjugate gradient LOBPCG method, and using an optimized three-dimensional (3D)
fast Fourier transform (FFT) in the ab initio}plane-wave code ABINIT. In
addition to the standard data partitioning over processors corresponding to
different k-points, we introduce data partitioning with respect to blocks of
bands as well as spatial partitioning in the Fourier space of coefficients over
the plane waves basis set used in ABINIT. This k-points-multiband-FFT
parallelization avoids any collective communications on the whole set of
processors relying instead on one-dimensional communications only. For a single
k-point, super-linear scaling is achieved for up to 100 processors due to an
extensive use of hardware optimized BLAS, LAPACK, and SCALAPACK routines,
mainly in the LOBPCG routine. We observe good performance up to 200 processors.
With 10 k-points our three-way data partitioning results in linear scaling up
to 1000 processors for a practical system used for testing.

We extend machinery developed by Hwang and Yamaguchi, Se-ashi, Tanaka and

scheduled for the ApJ November 1, 2007 v669n1 issue | null | 10.1086/521615 | null | astro-ph | null | We present results from a detailed spectrophotometric analysis of the blue
compact dwarf galaxy Mrk 35 (Haro 3), based on deep optical (B,V,R,I) and
near-IR (J,H,K) imaging, Halpha narrow-band observations and long-slit
spectroscopy. The optical emission of the galaxy is dominated by a central
young starburst, with a bar-like shape, while an underlying component of stars,
with elliptical isophotes and red colors, extends more than 4 kpc from the
galaxy center. High resolution Halpha and color maps allow us to identify the
star-forming regions, to spatially discriminate them from the older stars, and
to recognize several dust patches. We derive colors and Halpha parameters for
all the identified star-forming knots. Observables derived for each knot are
corrected for the contribution of the underlying older stellar population, the
contribution by emission lines, and from interstellar extinction, and compared
with evolutionary synthesis models. We find that the contributions of these
three factors are by no means negligible and that they significantly vary
across the galaxy. Therefore, careful quantification and subtraction of
emission lines, galaxy host contribution, and interstellar reddening at every
galaxy position, are essential to derive the properties of the young stars in
BCDs. We find that we can reproduce the colors of all the knots with an
instantaneous burst of star formation and the Salpeter initial mass function
with an upper mass limit of 100 M_solar. In all cases the knots are just a few
Myr old. The underlying population of stars has colors consistent with being
several Gyr old.

parameters of roughly 287 million objects over 9583 deg^2, and 1.27 million
spectra of stars, galaxies, quasars and blank sky (for sky subtraction)
selected over 7425 deg^2. This release includes much more extensive stellar
spectroscopy than previously, and also includes detailed estimates of stellar
temperatures, gravities, and metallicities. The results of improved photometric
calibration are now available, with uncertainties of roughly 1% in g, r, i, and
z, and 2% in u, substantially better than the uncertainties in previous data
releases. The spectra in this data release have improved wavelength and flux
calibration, especially in the extreme blue and extreme red, leading to the
qualitatively better determination of stellar types and radial velocities. The
spectrophotometric fluxes are now tied to point spread function magnitudes of
stars rather than fiber magnitudes, giving a 0.35 mag change in the
spectrophotometric flux scale. Systematic errors in the velocity dispersions of
galaxies have been fixed, and the results of two independent codes for
determining spectral classifications and redshifts are made available.

sample of intermediate redshift (0.2 < z < 0.7) UV-selected galaxies from the
ELAIS-N1 and ELAIS-N2 fields by fitting a multi-wavelength dataset to a library
of GRASIL templates. Star formation related properties of the galaxies are
derived from the library of models by using the Bayesian statistics. We find a
decreasing presence of galaxies with low attenuation and low total luminosity
as redshift decreases, which does not hold for high total luminosity galaxies.
In addition the dust attenuation of low mass galaxies increases as redshift
decreases, and this trend seems to disappear for galaxies with M* > 10^11
M_sun. This result is consistent with a mass dependent evolution of the dust to
gas ratio, which could be driven by a mass dependent efficiency of star
formation in star forming galaxies. The specific star formation rates (SSFR)
decrease with increasing stellar mass at all redshifts, and for a given stellar
mass the SSFR decreases with decreasing redshift. The differences in the slope
of the M*--SSFR relation found between this work and others at similar redshift
could be explained by the adopted selection criteria of the samples which, for
a UV selected sample, favours blue, star forming galaxies.

equilibrium from the point of view of the microcanonical multifragmentation

sets attached to a subset of {0,1,...,N}, chosen randomly according to a
binomial model with parameter p(N), with N^{-1} = o(p(N)). We show that the
random subset is almost surely difference dominated, as N --> oo, for any
choice of p(N) tending to zero, thus confirming a conjecture of Martin and
O'Bryant. The proofs use recent strong concentration results.
Furthermore, we exhibit a threshold phenomenon regarding the ratio of the
size of the difference- to the sumset. If p(N) = o(N^{-1/2}) then almost all
sums and differences in the random subset are almost surely distinct, and in
particular the difference set is almost surely about twice as large as the
sumset. If N^{-1/2} = o(p(N)) then both the sum and difference sets almost
surely have size (2N+1) - O(p(N)^{-2}), and so the ratio in question is almost
surely very close to one. If p(N) = c N^{-1/2} then as c increases from zero to
infinity (i.e., as the threshold is crossed), the same ratio almost surely
decreases continuously from two to one according to an explicitly given
function of c.
We also extend our results to the comparison of the generalized difference
sets attached to an arbitrary pair of binary linear forms. For certain pairs of
forms f and g, we show that there in fact exists a sharp threshold at c_{f,g}
N^{-1/2}, for some computable constant c_{f,g}, such that one form almost
surely dominates below the threshold, and the other almost surely above it.
The heart of our approach involves using different tools to obtain strong
concentration of the sizes of the sum and difference sets about their mean
values, for various ranges of the parameter p.

the literature for all sources within the VLA Low Frequency Sky Survey (VLSS)
that are brighter than 15 Jy at 74 MHz. Over 160 references were used to
maximize the amount of spectral data used in the compilation of the spectra,
while also taking care to determine the corrections needed to put the flux
densities from all reference on the same absolute flux density scale. With the
new VLSS data, we are able to vastly improve upon previous efforts to compile
spectra of bright radio sources to frequencies below 100 MHz because (1) the
VLSS flux densities are more reliable than those from some previous low
frequency surveys and (2) the VLSS covers a much larger area of the sky
(declination >-30 deg.) than many other low frequency surveys (e.g., the 8C
survey). In this paper, we discuss how the spectra were constructed and how
parameters quantifying the shapes of the spectra were derived. Both the spectra
and the shape parameters are made available here to assist in the calibration
of observations made with current and future low frequency radio facilities.

of such models, in particular, for lepton-flavour violation and electric dipole
moments. Since the neutrino masses depend on the Majorana mass scale linearly,
while supersymmetric loop corrections depend on it logarithmically, the
magnitude of lepton-flavour- and CP-violating transitions may increase with the
multiplicity of the right--handed neutrinos and may be enhanced by orders of
magnitude. We also point out that, in the context of leptogensis, the bounds on
the reheating temperature and the lightest neutrino mass get relaxed compared
to those in the case of 3 right--handed neutrinos.

the Kaon 2007 International Conference, LN Frascati (Italy), 21-25 May 2007.
Submitted to Proc. of Science | PoSKAON:041,2008 | null | null | hep-ph gr-qc hep-th | null | In this review, I first discuss briefly some theoretical motivations for
potential Lorentz Violation and deviation from ordinary quantum mechanical
behavior (decoherence) of field theoretic systems in the background of some
quantum gravity (QG) models. Both types of effects lead to CPT violation, but
they can be disentangled experimentally. I, then, proceed to a description of
precision tests of CPT symmetry using neutral and charged Kaons, which are of
direct relevance to the main theme of this conference. I emphasize the
potentially unique r\^ole of neutral meson factories in providing
``smoking-gun'' evidence of some QG-decoherence models in which the CPT quantum
mechanical operator is not well defined. This is achieved by means of potential
observations of QG-induced modifications of the pertinent
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) particle correlations.

Sections | 27 pages, 2 figures | Annals Phys.323:2147-2171,2008 | 10.1016/j.aop.2007.11.010 | BU-HEPP-07-08; improved text | hep-ph | null | It is shown that exact, amplitude-based resummation allows IR-improvement of
the usual DGLAP theory. This results in a new set of kernels, parton
distributions and attendant reduced cross sections, so that the QCD
perturbative result for the respective hadron-hadron or lepton-hadron cross
section is unchanged order-by-order in $\alpha_s$ at large squared-momentum
transfers. We compare these new objects with their usual counter-parts and
illustrate the effects of the IR-improvement in some phenomenological cases of
interest with an eye toward precision applications in LHC physics scenarios.

demonstrate that a weak value can be non-classical if and only if a
Leggett-Garg inequality can also be violated. Generalized weak values are
described, where post-selection on a range of weak measurement results.
Imposing classical weak values permits the derivation of Leggett-Garg
inequalities for bounded operators. Our analysis is presented in terms of
kicked quantum nondemolition measurements on a quantum double-dot charge qubit.

dynamics of social influence | 15 pages, 12 figures | null | 10.1103/PhysRevE.79.046108 | null | physics.soc-ph cond-mat.stat-mech | null | We study the effects of bounded confidence thresholds and of interaction and
external noise on Axelrod's model of social influence. Our study is based on a
combination of numerical simulations and an integration of the mean-field
Master equation describing the system in the thermodynamic limit. We find that
interaction thresholds affect the system only quantitatively, but that they do
not alter the basic phase structure. The known crossover between an ordered and
a disordered state in finite systems subject to external noise persists in
models with general confidence threshold. Interaction noise here facilitates
the dynamics and reduces relaxation times. We also study Axelrod systems with
metric features, and point out similarities and differences compared to models
with nominal features. Metric features are used to demonstrate that a small
group of extremists can have a significant impact on the opinion dynamics of a
population of Axelrod agents.

Arizona, (3) Centro de Investigaciones de Astronomia, Merida, Venezuela) | The Hot Inner Disk of FU Ori | 32 pages, 10 figures, to appear in the Astrophysical Journal | null | 10.1086/521345 | null | astro-ph | null | We have constructed a detailed radiative transfer disk model which reproduces
the main features of the spectrum of the outbursting young stellar object FU
Orionis from ~ 4000 angstrom, to ~ 8 micron. Using an estimated visual
extinction Av~1.5, a steady disk model with a central star mass ~0.3 Msun and a
mass accretion rate ~ 2e-4 Msun/yr, we can reproduce the spectral energy
distribution of FU Ori quite well. With the mid-infrared spectrum obtained by
the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on board the Spitzer Space Telescope, we
estimate that the outer radius of the hot, rapidly accreting inner disk is ~ 1
AU using disk models truncated at this outer radius. Inclusion of radiation
from a cooler irradiated outer disk might reduce the outer limit of the hot
inner disk to ~ 0.5 AU. In either case, the radius is inconsistent with a pure
thermal instability model for the outburst. Our radiative transfer model
implies that the central disk temperature Tc > 1000 K out to ~ 0.5 - 1 AU,
suggesting that the magnetorotational instability (MRI) can be supported out to
that distance. Assuming that the ~ 100 yr decay timescale in brightness of FU
Ori represents the viscous timescale of the hot inner disk, we estimate the
viscosity parameter (alpha) to be ~ 0.2 - 0.02 in the outburst state,
consistent with numerical simulations of MRI in disks. The radial extent of the
high mass accretion region is inconsistent with the model of Bell & Lin, but
may be consistent with theories incorporating both gravitational instability
and MRI.
