Galaxy SDSS J1148+5251 | 35 pages, 11 figures, accepted for publication in the Astrophysical
Journal | Astrophys.J.662:927-939,2007 | 10.1086/518430 | null | astro-ph | null | Dusty hyperluminous galaxies in the early universe provide unique
environments for studying the role of massive stars in the formation and
destruction of dust. At redshifts above ~ 6, when the universe was less than ~
1 Gyr old, dust could have only condensed in the explosive ejecta of Type II
supernovae (SNe), since most of the progenitors of the AGB stars, the major
alternative source of interstellar dust, did not have time to evolve off the
main sequence since the onset of star formation. In this paper we present
analytical models for the evolution of the gas, dust, and metals in high
redshift galaxies, with a special application to SDSS J1148+5251, a
hyperluminous quasar at z = 6.4. We find that an average supernova must
condense at least 1 Msun of dust to account for the observed dust mass in this
quasar. Observationally, it is in excess of the largest dust yield of ~0.02
Msun found thus far in the ejecta of any SN. If future observations find this
to be a typical supernova dust yield, then additional processes, such as
accretion onto preexisting grains, or condensation around the AGN will need to
be invoked to account for the large amount of dust in this and similar objects.
The galaxy's star formation history is still uncertain, and current
observations of the gas, metal, and dust contents of J1148 can be reproduced by
either an intensive and short burst of star formation (~ 1000 Msun/yr) with a
duration of ~ 100 Myr, or a much lower star formation rate (~ 100 Msun/yr)
occurring over the lifetime of the galaxy.

2007, v666n 2 issue, six encapsulated postscript figures | Astrophys.J.666:896-902,2007 | 10.1086/520104 | null | astro-ph | null | We present photometric and spectroscopic data of the interacting starburst
galaxy NGC 6052 obtained with the Spitzer Space Telescope. The mid-infrared
(MIR) spectra of the three brightest spatially resolved regions in the galaxy
are remarkably similar and are consistent with dust emission from young nearly
coeval stellar populations. Analysis of the brightest infrared region of the
system, which contributes ~18.5 % of the total 16\micron flux, indicates that
unlike similar off-nuclear infrared-bright regions found in Arp 299 or NGC
4038/9, its MIR spectrum is inconsistent with an enshrouded hot dust (T > 300K)
component. Instead, the three brightest MIR regions all display dust continua
of temperatures less than ~ 200K. These low dust temperatures indicate the dust
is likely in the form of a patchy screen of relatively cold material situated
along the line of sight. We also find that emission from polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) and the forbidden atomic lines is very similar for each
region. We conclude that the ionization regions are self-similar and come from
young (about 6 Myr) stellar populations. A fourth region, for which we have no
MIR spectra, exhibits MIR emission similar to tidal tail features in other
interacting galaxies.

Bosch-Ramon | Deep radio images of the HEGRA and Whipple TeV sources in the Cygnus OB2
region | 10 pages, 8 figures, 1 online catalogue. Accepted for publication in
Astronomy & Astrophysics | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077712 | null | astro-ph | null | Context. The modern generation of Cherenkov telescopes has revealed a new
population of gamma-ray sources in the Galaxy. Some of them have been
identified with previously known X-ray binary systems while other remain
without clear counterparts a lower energies. Our initial goal here was
reporting on extensive radio observations of the first extended and yet
unidentified source, namely TeV J2032+4130. This object was originally detected
by the HEGRA telescope in the direction of the Cygnus OB2 region and its nature
has been a matter of debate during the latest years.
Aims. We aim to pursue our radio exploration of the TeV J2032+4130 position
that we initiated in a previous paper but taking now into account the latest
results from new Whipple and MILAGRO TeV telescopes.
Methods. Our investigation is mostly based on interferometric radio
observations with the Giant Metre Wave Radio Telescope (GMRT) close to Pune
(India) and the Very Large Array (VLA) in New Mexico (USA). We also conducted
near infrared observations with the 3.5 m telescope and the OMEGA2000 camera at
the Centro Astronomico Hispano Aleman (CAHA) in Almeria (Spain).
Results. We present deep radio maps centered on the TeV J2032+4130 position
at different wavelengths. In particular, our 49 and 20 cm maps cover a field of
view larger than half a degree that fully includes the Whipple position and the
peak of MILAGRO emission. Our most important result here is a catalogue of 153
radio sources detected at 49 cm within the GMRT antennae primary beam with a
full width half maximum (FWHM) of 43 arc-minute. Moreover, our
multi-configuration VLA images reveal the non-thermal extended emission
previously reported by us with improved angular resolution.

\tau_{B_d}$, $\tau_{B_s} / \tau_{B_d}$, $\tau_{\Lambda_b} / \tau_{B_d}$ and
$\tau_{B_c}$ and of the mixing quantities $\Delta M_s$, $\Delta \Gamma_s$ and
$\phi_s$. $\Delta M_s$ and $\Delta \Gamma_s$ suffer from large uncertainties
due to the badly known decay constants, while the ratio $\Delta \Gamma_s /
\Delta M_s$ can be determined with almost no non-perturbative uncertainties,
therefore it can be used perfectly to find possible new physics contributions
in the mixing parameters. We suggest a very clear method of visualizing the
bounds on new physics and demonstrate this by combining the latest experimental
numbers on the mixing quantities quantities with theory - one already gets some
hints for new physics contributions, but more precise experimental numbers are
needed to draw some definite conclusions. We conclude with a ranking list of
all the discussed quantities according to their current theoretical
uncertainties and point out possible improvements.

Applications to Quantum Computing and LDCs | This is the full version of a paper that will appear in the
proceedings of the IEEE FOCS 08 conference | null | 10.1109/FOCS.2008.45 | null | quant-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | The Bonami-Beckner hypercontractive inequality is a powerful tool in Fourier
analysis of real-valued functions on the Boolean cube. In this paper we present
a version of this inequality for matrix-valued functions on the Boolean cube.
Its proof is based on a powerful inequality by Ball, Carlen, and Lieb. We also
present a number of applications. First, we analyze maps that encode $n$
classical bits into $m$ qubits, in such a way that each set of $k$ bits can be
recovered with some probability by an appropriate measurement on the quantum
encoding; we show that if $m<0.7 n$, then the success probability is
exponentially small in $k$. This result may be viewed as a direct product
version of Nayak's quantum random access code bound. It in turn implies strong
direct product theorems for the one-way quantum communication complexity of
Disjointness and other problems. Second, we prove that error-correcting codes
that are locally decodable with 2 queries require length exponential in the
length of the encoded string. This gives what is arguably the first
``non-quantum'' proof of a result originally derived by Kerenidis and de Wolf
using quantum information theory, and answers a question by Trevisan.

results for the infrared exponents of the vertices differ only slightly.
Therefore, corresponding lattice simulations provide interesting qualitative
information for the physical case. We furthermore find that the loop integrals
depend only weakly on the numerical values of the IR exponents.

group U(N_c) and N_c+N quark flavors. N_c flavors are massless; the
corresponding squark fields develop (small) vacuum expectation values (VEVs) on
the Higgs branch. Extra N flavors are endowed with small (and equal) mass
terms. We study this theory through its Seiberg's dual: U(N) gauge theory with
N_c +N flavors of "dual quark" fields plus a gauge-singlet mesonic field M. The
original theory is referred to as "quark theory" while the dual one is termed
"monopole theory." The suggested mild deformation of Seiberg's procedure
changes the dynamical regime of the monopole theory from infrared free to
asymptotically free at large distances. We show that, upon condensation of the
"dual quarks," the dual theory supports non-Abelian flux tubes (strings).
Seiberg's duality is extended beyond purely massless states to include light
states on both sides. Being interpreted in terms of the quark theory, the
monopole-theory flux tubes are supposed to carry chromoelectric fields. The
string junctions -- confined monopole-theory monopoles -- can be viewed as
"constituent quarks" of the original quark theory. We interpret closed strings
as glueballs of the original quark theory. Moreover, there are string
configurations formed by two junctions connected by a pair of different
non-Abelian strings. These can be considered as constituent quark mesons of the
quark theory.

various phenomenological models, none of which provides a satisfactory
description of data, a failure on which we make some comments. These results
complement and extend the information obtained via the analysis of the
susceptibilities evaluated at zero mu, yielding a simple description of the
candidate strongly interacting QGP phase. As a byproduct of our analysis we
investigate the Polyakov loop and its hermitian conjugate. Our data offer a
vivid evidence of the importance of the complex nature of the functional

muon data since the beginning of August, 2003 at a depth of 2070
meters-water-equivalent in the Soudan Underground Laboratory, Minnesota, USA.
The data with both forward and reversed magnetic field running configurations
were combined to minimize systematic errors in the determination of the
underground muon charge ratio. When averaged, two independent analyses find the
charge ratio underground to be 1.374 +/- 0.004 (stat.) +0.012 -0.010(sys.).
Using the map of the Soudan rock overburden, the muon momenta as measured
underground were projected to the corresponding values at the surface in the
energy range 1-7 TeV. Within this range of energies at the surface, the MINOS
data are consistent with the charge ratio being energy independent at the two
standard deviation level. When the MINOS results are compared with measurements
at lower energies, a clear rise in the charge ratio in the energy range 0.3 --
1.0 TeV is apparent. A qualitative model shows that the rise is consistent with
an increasing contribution of kaon decays to the muon charge ratio.

technique of analysis, that is based on the Wavelet and Hilbert Transforms.
With that technique, it was previously found, that there is a collective and
intrinsic dynamical behavior up to a scale of 64 heartbeats. Now it is shown,
that using the Biorthogonal wavelet bior3.1 such a behavior reaches the scale
1024. That result confirms, that the circulatory system is out of equilibrium.
According to the Statistical Mechanics of Tsallis, and a recent interpretation
of G. Wilk et al. respect to the non extensive parameter q, the healthy human
being is characterized by q=1.70+/-0.01.

completely in terms of these parameters, which can also be used as inputs for a
renormalized perturbation theory. We show that taking into account repeated
quasiparticle scattering gives results for the longitudinal and transverse

obtained from direct NRG calculations.

A plane straight-line graph is called $\phi$-open if each vertex has an
incident angle of size at least $\phi$. In this paper we study the following
type of question: What is the maximum angle $\phi$ such that for any finite set
$S\subset\R^2$ of points in general position we can find a graph from a certain
class of graphs on $S$ that is $\phi$-open? In particular, we consider the
classes of triangulations, spanning trees, and paths on $S$ and give tight

spectrum of a complete length space or Riemannian manifold. The spectra measure
the sizes of localized holes in the space and are defined using covering spaces
called $\delta$ covers and $R$ cut-off $\delta$ covers. They are investigated
using $\delta$ homotopies which are homotopies via grids whose squares are
mapped into balls of radius $\delta$.
On locally compact spaces, we prove that these new spectra are subsets of the
closure of the length spectrum. We prove the $R$ cut-off covering spectrum is
almost continuous with respect to the pointed Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of
spaces and that the cut-off covering spectrum is also relatively well behaved.
This is not true of the covering spectrum defined in our earlier work which was
shown to be well behaved on compact spaces. We close by analyzing these spectra
on Riemannian manifolds with lower bounds on their sectional and Ricci
curvature and their limit spaces.

densities of the one- and two-particle response functions for the infinite
dimensional Hubbard model in a magnetic field. We look at the different regimes
corresponding to half-filling, near half-filling and well away from
half-filling, for intermediate and strong values of the local interaction $U$.
The low energy results are analyzed in terms of quasiparticles with field
dependent parameters. The renormalized parameters are determined by two
different methods, both based on numerical renormalization group (NRG)
calculations, and we find good agreement. Away from half-filling the
quasiparticle weights, $z_\sigma(H)$, differ according to the spin type
$\sigma=\uparrow$ or $\sigma=\downarrow$. Using the renormalized parameters, we
show that DMFT-NRG results for the local longitudinal and transverse dynamic
spin susceptibilities in an arbitrary field can be understood in terms of
repeated scattering of these quasiparticles. We also check Luttinger's theorem
for the Hubbard model and find it to be satisfied in all parameter regimes and
for all values of the magnetic field.

the AFM order below the Neel temperature of the studied RMnO3 extends to far
higher magnetic fields than previously assumed. Magnetic irreversibility
indicating the presence of a spontaneous magnetic moment is found near 50 K for
R=Er, Yb, and Tm. At very low temperatures and low magnetic fields the phase
boundary defined by the ordering of the rare earth moments is resolved. The
sizable dielectric anomalies observed along all phase boundaries are evidence
for strong spin-lattice coupling in the hexagonal RMnO3. In HoMnO3 the strong
magnetoelastic distortions are investigated in more detail via magnetostriction
experiments up to 14 Tesla. The results are discussed based on existing data on
magnetic symmetries and the interactions between the Mn-spins, the rare earth

continuous one-parameter family of closed curves starting and ending at point
curves. Pull the sweepout tight by, in a continuous way, pulling each curve as
tight as possible yet preserving the sweepout. We show:
Each curve in the tightened sweepout whose length is close to the length of
the longest curve in the sweepout must itself be close to a closed geodesic. In
particular, there are curves in the sweepout that are close to closed
geodesics.
Finding closed geodesics on the 2-sphere by using sweepouts goes back to
Birkhoff in 1917.
As an application, we bound from above, by a negative constant, the rate of
change of the width for a one-parameter family of convex hypersurfaces that
flows by mean curvature. The width is loosely speaking up to a constant the
square of the length of the shortest closed curve needed to ``pull over'' $M$.
This estimate is sharp and leads to a sharp estimate for the extinction time;
cf. [CM1], [CM2] where a similar bound for the rate of change for the two
dimensional width is shown for homotopy 3-spheres evolving by the Ricci flow
(see also Perelman).

In the field theory description the wavefunction of a particle is spread over a
large number of `loops', and the particle has a well-defined position in space
only if it has the same `position' on each loop. For the infalling particle we
find one definition of `same position' on each loop, but there is a different
definition for outgoing particles and no canonical definition in general in the
horizon region. Thus the meaning of `position' becomes ill-defined inside the
horizon.

Black Holes | null | Phys.Rev.D76:084020,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.084020 | null | gr-qc astro-ph | null | Tremendous progress has been made towards the solution of the
binary-black-hole problem in numerical relativity. The waveforms produced by
numerical relativity will play a role in gravitational wave detection as either
test-beds for analytic template banks or as template banks themselves. As the
parameter space explored by numerical relativity expands, the importance of
quantifying the effect that each parameter has on first the detection of
gravitational waves and then the parameter estimation of their sources
increases. In light of this, we present a study of equal-mass, spinning
binary-black-hole evolutions through matched filtering techniques commonly used
in data analysis. We study how the match between two numerical waveforms varies
with numerical resolution, initial angular momentum of the black holes and the
inclination angle between the source and the detector. This study is limited by
the fact that the spinning black-hole-binaries are oriented axially and the
waveforms only contain approximately two and a half orbits before merger. We
find that for detection purposes, spinning black holes require the inclusion of
the higher harmonics in addition to the dominant mode, a condition that becomes
more important as the black-hole-spins increase. In addition, we conduct a
preliminary investigation of how well a template of fixed spin and inclination
angle can detect target templates of arbitrary spin and inclination for the
axial case considered here.

general periodic potential while the second one is totally arbitrary. A general
form for Bloch's amplitude is found and an eigen-value problem for the band
structure of the system is derived. We apply the general result to the two
particular cases in which either the second potential represents a harmonic
in-plane confinement or it is zero. We find that for a harmonic confinement
regions of the Brillouin zone with high polarizations are associated with the
ones of large group velocity.

models; the ``orbifold lattice theory'' by Cohen-Kaplan-Katz-Unsal (CKKU),
lattice regularization of the topological field theory by Sugino and the
``geometrical approach'' by Catterall. We point out that these three models
have close relationships; the N =(2,2) model by Catterall [Catterall] and the
two-dimensional N = (2,2) lattice theory being similar to Sugino's construction
[Sugino] can be derived by appropriate truncation of fields in the
two-dimensional N = (4,4) orbifold lattice theory by CKKU [Cohen et al].
Catterall's N = (2,2) description possesses extra degrees of freedom compared
to the target N = (2,2) theory. If we remove those extra degrees of freedom in
a way keeping supersymmetry on the lattice, Catterall's description reduces to
a model of the Sugino type.

Rim\'anyi defined the incidence class of two singularities X and Y as
$[X]|_Y$, the restriction of the Thom polynomial of X to Y. He conjectured that
(under mild conditions) the incidence is not zero if and only if Y is in the
closure of X. Generalizing this notion we define the incidence class of two
orbits X and Y of a representation. We give a sufficient condition (positivity)
for Y to have the property that the incidence class $[X]|_Y$ is not zero if and
only if Y is in the closure of X for any other orbit X. We show that for many
interesting cases, e.g. the quiver representations of Dynkin type positivity
holds for all orbits. In other words in these cases the incidence classes
completely determine the hierarchy of the orbits. We also study the case of
singularities where positivity doesn't hold for all orbits.

contain valuable information on the internal dynamics of the explosion. One
mechanism leading to a temporal evolution of the neutrino signal is the
variation of the induced neutrino flavor mixing driven by changes in the
density profile. With one and two dimensional hydrodynamical simulations we
identify the behavior and properties of prominent features of the explosion.
Using these results we demonstrate the time variation of the neutrino crossing
probabilities due to changes in the MSW neutrino transformations as the star
explodes by using the S-matrix - Monte Carlo - approach to neutrino
propagation. After adopting spectra for the neutrinos emitted from the
proto-neutron star we calculate for a Galactic supernova the evolution of the
positron spectra within a water Cerenkov detector and the ratio of charged
current to neutral current event rates for a heavy water - SNO like - detector
and find that these detector signals are feasible probes of a number of
explosion features.

condensation" into a superconducting state. Helium atoms are preformed bosons
and, in addition to their condensed superfluid state, can also form a quantum
solid, lacking phase-coherence. Here we show that the fate of Cooper pairs can
be more varied than the BCS or helium paradigms. In copper-oxide d-wave
superconductors (dSC) Cooper pairs are intrinsically non-local objects, with
both center-of-mass and relative motions. As doping decreases, the center-of
mass fluctuations force a correlated dSC into a state with enhanced
diamagnetism and robust but short-ranged superconducting order. At extreme
underdoping, the relative fluctuations take over and two pseudogaps --
``small'' (charge) and ``large'' (spin) -- emerge naturally from the theory, as
Cooper pairs ``disintegrate'' and charge ``detaches'' from spin-singlet bonds.
The ensuing ground state(s) are governed by diagonal (mostly antiferromagnetic)
rather than by superconducting (off-diagonal) correlations. The theory is used
to account for several recent experiments and to draw general conclusions about
the phase diagram.

significantly modifies the inflaton potential. We construct an example based on
a very simple and symmetric embedding due to Kuperstein, z_1 = constant, in
which it is possible to fine-tune the potential so that slow roll inflation can
occur. The resulting model is rather delicate: inflation occurs in the vicinity
of an inflection point, and the cosmological predictions are extremely
sensitive to the precise shape of the potential.

and the rare, massive, halos that are generally considered to host bright
quasars at high redshift z~6. The main question that we intend to answer is
whether the super-massive black holes powering these QSOs grew out from the
seeds planted by the first intermediate massive black holes created in the
universe. This question involves a dynamical range of 10^13 in mass and we
address it by combining N-body simulations of structure formation to identify
the most massive halos at z~6 with a Monte Carlo method based on linear theory
to obtain the location and formation times of the first light halos within the
whole simulation box. We show that the descendants of the first ~10^6 Msun
virialized halos do not, on average, end up in the most massive halos at z~6,
but rather live in a large variety of environments. The oldest PopIII
progenitors of the most massive halos at z~6, form instead from density peaks
that are on average one and a half standard deviations more common than the
first PopIII star formed in the volume occupied by one bright high-z QSO. The
intermediate mass black hole seeds planted by the very first PopIII stars at
z>40 can easily grow to masses m_BH>10^9.5 Msun by z=6 assuming Eddington
accretion with radiative efficiency \epsilon~0.1. Quenching of the black hole
accretion is therefore crucial to avoid an overabundance of supermassive black
holes at lower redshift. This can be obtained if the mass accretion is limited
to a fraction \eta~6*10^{-3} of the total baryon mass of the halo hosting the
black hole. The resulting high end slope of the black hole mass function at z=6
is \alpha ~ -3.7, a value within the 1\sigma error bar for the bright end slope
of the observed quasar luminosity function at z=6.

models of electroweak symmetry breaking with bulk gauge and fermion fields,
since the radion may turn out to be the lightest particle in such models. We
calculate the coupling of the radion in such scenarios to bulk fermion and
gauge modes. Special attention needs to be devoted to the coupling to massless
gauge fields (photon, gluon), since it is well known that loop effects may be
important for these fields. We also present a detailed explanation of these
couplings from the CFT interpretation. We then use these couplings to determine
the radion branching fractions and discuss some of the discovery potential of
the LHC for the radion. We find that the gamma-gamma signal is enhanced over
most of the range of the radion mass over the gamma-gamma signal of a SM Higgs,
as long as the RS scale is sufficiently low. However, the signal significance
depends strongly on free parameters that characterize the magnitude of bare
brane-localized kinetic terms for the massless gauge fields. In the absence of
such terms, the signal can be be enhanced over the traditional RS1 models
(where all standard model fields are localized on the IR brane), but the signal
can also be reduced compared to RS1 if the brane localized terms are sizeable.
We also show that for larger radion masses, where the gamma-gamma signal is no
longer significant, one can use the usual 4 lepton signal to discover the
radion.

ejecta (PE) to produce the "Mystery Spot" (MS). The SN flash takes an extra 8 d
to hit the MS, and this was confirmed at 2e39 ergs/s in the optical at day 8. A
ramp in luminosity starting near day 10 indicates particles from the BJ hitting
the PE, with the fastest particles traveling at 0.8 c, and an upper limit for
the optical luminosity of the MS of 5e40 ergs/s at day 20. The details of SN
1987A strongly suggest that it resulted from a merger of 2 stellar cores of a
common envelope (CE) binary, i.e. a "double-degenerate" (DD)-initiated SN, and
is thus the Rosetta Stone for 99% of MSPs in the non-core-collapsed globular
clusters, GRBs, and SNe, including all recent nearby SNe except SN 1986J and
the more distant SN 2006gy. Without having to blast through the CE of Sk -69
202, it is likely that the BJ would have caused a full, long-soft gamma-ray
burst (lGRB) upon hitting the PE, thus DD can produce lGRBs. The typical 0.5
deg collimation of a GRB, over the 22 lt-d from SN 1987A to its PE, produces
~100 s of delay, MATCHING the observed delay of the non-prompt parts of lGRBs.
Because DD must be the dominant SN mechanism in elliptical galaxies, where only
short, hard GRBs (sGRBs) have been observed, DD without CE or PE must also make
sGRBs, thus the initial photon spectrum of 99% of ALL GRBs is KNOWN, & neutron
star (NS)-NS mergers may not make GRBs as we know them. Observations of Ia's
strongly suggest that these are also DD, implying another systematic effect in
Ia Cosmology, as Ia's will appear to be Ic's when viewed from their DD merger
poles, given sufficient matter above that lost to core- collapse (otherwise it
would just beg the question of what ELSE they could possibly be). There is no
need to invent exotica, such as collapsars or hypernovae, to account for GRBs.

can each be solved by an expansion with a three-term recursion relation, though
there are closed-form solutions for certain cases. This enables us to read off
the operators which acquire non-zero vacuum expectation values as the quiver
gauge theory flows away from a fixed point.

horizontal wind and temperature throughout the troposphere based on
several-years radiosonde measurements of strong winds. The profiles measured
under quite different atmospheric conditions exhibit qualitative similarity. A
proper choice of the reference scales for the wind, temperature and altitude
levels allow us to consider the measurement data as realizations of a random
process with universal characteristics: means, the basic functions and
parameters of standard distributions for transform coefficients of the
Principal Component Analysis. The features of the atmospheric conditions are
described by statistical characteristics of the wind-temperature ensemble of
dimensional reference scales. The model can be useful for air pollution and
safety in high-risk areas such as chemical and nuclear plants.

vanishing Rashba or Dresselhaus case. Strong resonances are developed in the

experimentally probe spin accumulation and spin density currents in such

0705.3850 | Christian de Ronde | Christian de Ronde | Understanding Quantum Mechanics Through the Complementary Descriptions
Approach | welcome | null | null | null | quant-ph | null | Niels Bohr introduced the concept of complementarity in order to give a
general account of quantum mechanics, however he stressed that the idea of
complementarity is related to the general dificulty in the formation of human
ideas, inherent in the distinction between subject and object. Earlier, we have
introduced a development of the concept of complementarity which constitutes a
new approach to the interpretation of quantum mechanics. We argue that this
development allows a better understanding of some of the paradigmatic
interpretational problems of quantum theory.
Within the scheme proposed by modal interpretations we analyze the relation
between holism and reductionism as well as the problems proposed by Arntzenius
and Clifton. We discuss the problem of presupposing the concept of entity
within the quantum formalism and bring into stage the concept of faculty as a
way to recover the objective character of quantum mechanics.

the type II-P supernova SN2004et in the spiral galaxy NGC 6946, made on 20
February 2005 (151 days after explosion). The Very Large Array (VLA) flux
density was 1.23$\pm$0.07 mJy, corresponding to an isotropic luminosity at
8.4GHz of (4.45$\pm$0.3)$\times10^{25}$ erg s$^{-1}$ Hz$^{-1}$ and a brightness
temperature of (1.3$\pm$0.3)$\times10^{8}$ K. We also provide an improved
source position, accurate to about 0.5 mas in each coordinate. The VLBI image
shows a clear asymmetry. From model fitting of the size of the radio emission,
we estimate a minimum expansion velocity of 15,700$\pm$2,000 km s$^{-1}$. This
velocity is more than twice the expected mean expansion velocity estimated from
a synchrotron self-absorbed emission model, thus suggesting that synchrotron
self-absorption is not relevant for this supernova. With the benefit of an
optical spectrum obtained 12 days after explosion, we favor an emission model
which consists of two hot spots on an underlying expanding shell of width
comparable to that of SN 1993J.

pp-collisions leading to subsequent gamma-ray emission through neutral pion
decay. The assumption of a power-law ambient spectrum of accelerated particles
with index near -2 is usually built into models predicting the spectra of
very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from SNRs. However, if the gas cloud
is located at some distance from the SNR shock, this assumption is not
necessarily correct. In this case, the particles which interact with the cloud
are those leaking from the shock and their spectrum is approximately
monoenergetic with the injection energy gradually decreasing as the SNR ages.
In the GLAST energy range the gamma-ray spectrum resulting from particle
interactions with the gas cloud will be flatter than expected, with the cutoff
defined by the pion momentum distribution in the laboratory frame. We evaluate
the flux of particles escaping from a SNR shock and apply the results to the
VHE diffuse emission detected by the HESS at the Galactic centre.

the space density of AM CVn stars and suggest that previous estimates have been
too high by about an order of magnitude. We also infer the mass accretion rates
which allows us to constrain the masses of the donor stars, and we show that
relatively massive, semi-degenerate donor stars are favored in all systems
except GP Com. Finally, we give updated estimates for their gravitational-wave
signals, relevant for future space missions such as the proposed Laser
Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), based on their distances and the inferred
masses of the binary components. We show that all systems but GP Com are
excellent candidates for detection with LISA.

2007 (final version) | Proc. 30th ICRC (Merida), 2, 759-762 (2007) | null | null | astro-ph | null | We use the GEANT4 Monte Carlo framework to calculate the gamma-ray albedo of
the Moon due to interactions of cosmic ray (CR) nuclei with moon rock. Our
calculation of the albedo spectrum agrees with the EGRET data. We show that the
spectrum of gamma rays from the Moon is very steep with an effective cutoff
around 4 GeV (600 MeV for the inner part of the Moon disc). Apart from other
astrophysical sources, the albedo spectrum of the Moon is well understood,
including its absolute normalisation; this makes it a useful "standard candle"
for gamma-ray telescopes, such as the forthcoming Gamma Ray Large Area Space
Telescope (GLAST). The albedo flux depends on the incident CR spectrum which
changes over the solar cycle. Therefore, it is possible to monitor the CR
spectrum using the albedo gamma-ray flux. Simultaneous measurements of CR
proton and helium spectra by the Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and
Light-nuclei Astrophysics (PAMELA), and observations of the albedo gamma rays
by the GLAST Large Area Telescope (LAT), can be used to test the model
predictions and will enable the GLAST LAT to monitor the CR spectrum near the
Earth beyond the lifetime of PAMELA.

the zeta function and functional determinant of D^2, and prove finiteness of
the Morse index at stationary metrics, and local extremality at such metrics
under general, i.e. not only conformal, change of metrics.
In even dimensions, which is also a new case for the conformal Laplacian, the
relevant stability operator is of log-polyhomogeneous pseudodifferential type,
and we prove new results of independent interest, on the spectrum for such
operators. We use this to prove local extremality under variation of the
Riemannian metric, which in the important example when (M^n, g) is the round
n-sphere, gives a partial verification of Branson's conjecture on the pattern
of extremals. Thus det(D^2) has a local (max, max, min, min) when the dimension
is (4k, 4k + 1, 4k + 2, 4k + 3), respectively.

charged particle yield on energy, system size, and both longitudinal and
transverse momentum have been determined over close to the full kinematic
range. Identified charged particles emitted near mid-rapidity have been studied
over about 2 orders of magnitude in transverse momentum. This broad data set
was found to be characterized by a small number of simple scalings which
factorize to a surprising degree. This study has recently been extended by the
addition of new data for Cu+Cu as well as new analyses of Au+Au data, including
more peripheral collisions. In addition, the exploration of global properties
has been expanded with the use of new techniques, including two-particle
correlations, more sensitive searches for rare events, and more detailed
studies of particles emitted at very forward rapidity. The characteristics of
particle production which are revealed by this extensive data set will be
described along with the implications for future data from the LHC.

Roshchin | Inductively Coupled Circuits with Spin Wave Bus for Information
Processing | null | null | null | null | cond-mat.other | null | We describe a new approach to logic devices interconnection by the inductive
coupling via a ferromagnetic film. The information among the distant devices is
transmitted in a wireless manner via a magnetic field produced by spin waves
propagating in the ferromagnetic film, referred to as the spin wave bus. As an
alternative approach to the transistor-based architecture, logic circuits with
spin wave bus do not use charge as an information carrier. A bit of information
can be encoded into the phase or the amplitude of the spin wave signal. We
present experimental data demonstrating inductive coupling through the 100nm
thick NiFe and CoFe films at room temperature. The performance of logic
circuits with spin wave bus is illustrated by numerical modeling based on the
experimental data. Potentially, logic circuits with spin wave bus may resolve
the interconnect problem and provide "wireless" read-in and read-out. Another
expected benefit is in the enhanced logic functionality. A set of NOT, AND, and
OR logic gates can be realized in one device structure. The coupling between
the circuits and the spin wave bus can be controlled. We present the results of
numerical simulations showing the controllable switching of a bi-stable logic
cell inductively coupled to the spin wave bus. The shortcomings and limitations
of circuits with spin wave bus are also discussed.

Journal | Astrophys.J.666:835-845,2007 | 10.1086/520505 | null | astro-ph | null | We present the analysis of the temperature and metallicity profiles of 12
galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.1--0.3 selected from the Chandra
archive with at least ~20,000 net ACIS counts and kT>6 keV. We divide the
sample between 7 Cooling-Core (CC) and 5 Non-Cooling-Core (NCC) clusters
according to their central cooling time. We find that single power-laws can
describe properly both the temperature and metallicity profiles at radii larger
than 0.1 r_180 in both CC and NCC systems, showing the NCC objects steeper
profiles outwards. A significant deviation is only present in the inner 0.1
r_180. We perform a comparison of our sample with the De Grandi & Molendi
BeppoSAX sample of local CC and NCC clusters, finding a complete agreement in
the CC cluster profile and a marginally higher value (at ~1sigma) in the inner
regions of the NCC clusters. The slope of the power-law describing kT(r) within
0.1 r_180 correlates strongly with the ratio between the cooling time and the
age of the Universe at the cluster redshift, being the slope >0 and
tau_c/tau_age<=0.6 in CC systems.

technologically. Here we focus on the infinitely correlated t-J model on a

Using exact diagonalization on a finite sized system we calculate the
dynamical thermal response functions in order to determine the thermopower,
Lorenz number, and dimensionless figure of merit. The dynamical thermal
response functions is compared to the infinite frequency limit and shown to be
very weak functions of frequency, hence, establishing the validity of the high
frequency formalism recently proposed by Shastry for the thermopower, Lorenz
number, and the dimensionless figure of merit. Further, the thermopower is
demonstrated to have a low to mid temperature enhancement when the sign of the
hopping parameter $t$ is switched from positive to negative for the
geometrically frustrated lattice considered.

Complexity and System Science | null | null | null | math.OC | null | Discrete control systems, as considered here, refer to the control theory of
discrete-time Lagrangian or Hamiltonian systems. These discrete-time models are
based on a discrete variational principle, and are part of the broader field of
geometric integration. Geometric integrators are numerical integration methods
that preserve geometric properties of continuous systems, such as conservation
of the symplectic form, momentum, and energy. They also guarantee that the
discrete flow remains on the manifold on which the continuous system evolves,
an important property in the case of rigid-body dynamics.
In nonlinear control, one typically relies on differential geometric and
dynamical systems techniques to prove properties such as stability,
controllability, and optimality. More generally, the geometric structure of
such systems plays a critical role in the nonlinear analysis of the
corresponding control problems. Despite the critical role of geometry and
mechanics in the analysis of nonlinear control systems, nonlinear control
algorithms have typically been implemented using numerical schemes that ignore
the underlying geometry.
The field of discrete control system aims to address this deficiency by
restricting the approximation to choice of a discrete-time model, and
developing an associated control theory that does not introduce any additional
approximation. In particular, this involves the construction of a control
theory for discrete-time models based on geometric integrators that yields
numerical implementations of nonlinear and geometric control algorithms that
preserve the crucial underlying geometric structure.

species and preferred protein folds | In press, PLoS Computational Biology | null | 10.1371/journal.pcbi.0030139 | null | q-bio.BM q-bio.PE | null | In this work we develop a microscopic physical model of early evolution,
where phenotype,organism life expectancy, is directly related to genotype, the
stability of its proteins in their native conformations which can be determined
exactly in the model. Simulating the model on a computer, we consistently
observe the Big Bang scenario whereby exponential population growth ensues as
soon as favorable sequence-structure combinations (precursors of stable
proteins) are discovered. Upon that, random diversity of the structural space
abruptly collapses into a small set of preferred proteins. We observe that
protein folds remain stable and abundant in the population at time scales much
greater than mutation or organism lifetime, and the distribution of the
lifetimes of dominant folds in a population approximately follows a power law.
The separation of evolutionary time scales between discovery of new folds and
generation of new sequences gives rise to emergence of protein families and
superfamilies whose sizes are power-law distributed, closely matching the same
distributions for real proteins. On the population level we observe emergence
of species, subpopulations which carry similar genomes. Further we present a
simple theory that relates stability of evolving proteins to the sizes of
emerging genomes. Together, these results provide a microscopic first
principles picture of how first gene families developed in the course of early
evolution

in section 3 | JHEP 0709:024,2007 | 10.1088/1126-6708/2007/09/024 | null | hep-th | null | We use the AdS/CFT correspondence to compute the conductivity of massive N=2
hypermultiplet fields at finite baryon number density in an N=4 SU(N_c)
super-Yang-Mills theory plasma in the large N_c, large 't Hooft coupling limit.
The finite baryon density provides charge carriers analogous to electrons in a
metal. An external electric field then induces a finite current which we
determine directly. Our result for the conductivity is good for all values of
the mass, external field and density, modulo statements about the
yet-incomplete phase diagram. In the appropriate limits it agrees with known
results obtained from analyzing small fluctuations around equilibrium. For
large mass, where we expect a good quasi-particle description, we compute the
drag force on the charge carriers and find that the answer is unchanged from
the zero density case. Our method easily generalizes to a wide class of systems
of probe branes in various backgrounds.

their work, Hawking radiation from the cosmological horizons of the general
Schwarzschild-de Sitter and Kerr-de Sitter black holes, has been studied by the
method of anomaly cancellation. The result shows that the absorbing gauge
current and energy momentum tensor fluxes required to cancel gauge and
gravitational anomalies at the cosmological horizon are precisely equal to
those of Hawking radiation from it. It should be emphasized that the effective
field theory for generic black holes in de Sitter spaces should be formulated
within the region between the event horizon (EH) and the cosmological horizon
(CH), to integrate out the classically irrelevant ingoing modes at the EH and
the classically irrelevant outgoing modes at the CH, respectively.

at the surface indicate mostly 5-fold coordination, though there are noticeable
fractions of 4-fold and 6-fold coordinated atoms. Bond angle distributions
suggest a movement toward the angles corresponding to a six-fold coordinated
hexagonal arrangement of the atoms as the temperature is decreased towards the
solidification point. We rationalize these results with a distorted hexagonal
order at the surface, showing a mixture of regions of five and six-fold
coordination. The liquid surface results are compared with classical MD
simulations of the liquid surface, with similar effects appearing, and with ab

shift towards hexagonal ordering is observed as the temperature is lowered.

field as a rough form without considering the size of the atomic nucleus. The
rough expression brings on that the solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation and
the Dirac equation with the Coulomb potential are divergent at the origin of
the coordinates, also the virtual energies, when the nuclear charges number Z >
137, meaning the original solutions do not satisfy the conditions for
determining solution. Any divergences of the wave functions also imply that the
probability density of the meson or the electron would rapidly increase when
they are closing to the atomic nucleus. What it predicts is not a truth that
the atom in ground state would rapidly collapse to the neutron-like. We
consider that the atomic nucleus has definite radius and write the exact
boundary condition for the hydrogen and hydrogen-like atom, then newly solve
the radial Dirac-Coulomb equation and obtain a new exact solution without any
mathematical and physical difficulties. Unexpectedly, the K value constructed
by Dirac is naturally written in the barrier width or the equivalent radius of
the atomic nucleus in solving the Dirac equation with the exact boundary
condition, and it is independent of the quantum energy. Without any divergent
wave function and the virtual energies, we obtain a new formula of the energy
levels that is different from the Dirac formula of the energy levels in the
Coulomb field.

molecules are studied. The electron and hole tunneling energies as well as the
direct Coulomb interaction are essential for the exciton levels. It is found
that fine-structure splitting of the two-lowest exciton levels is contributed
from the intra- and inter-dot exchange interactions, both of which are largely
influenced by the symmetry and tunnel-coupling between the two dots. As the
inter-dot separation is reduced, fine-structure splitting of the exciton ground
state is largely increased while those of the excited states are decreased.
Moreover, the dependence of the fine-structure splitting in quantum dot
molecules on the Coulomb correlation is clearly clarified.

order as observed in graphene had been measured in GaAs submicron devices long
ago. Particle- antiparticle asymmetry related with electron and hole effective
masses in graphene seems puzzling as hole in a condensed matter system cannot
be treated as anti-electron. It is argued that there should be a universal
electrodynamics for QHE and superconductivity. In this context attention is
drawn to the new approach based on massless electron and the interpretation
that magnetic field represents angular momentum of the photon fluid.
Measurement of electron velocity in graphene and GaAs in parallel is suggested
for testing the massless electrodynamics.

with and without magnetic reconnection | 7 pages, 4 figures, ApJ, in press (vol. 666, Sept. 2007) | Astrophys.J.665:1421-1427,2007 | 10.1086/519551 | null | astro-ph | null | It is generally believed that the magnetic free energy accumulated in the
corona serves as a main energy source for solar explosions such as coronal mass
ejections (CMEs). In the framework of the flux rope catastrophe model for CMEs,
the energy may be abruptly released either by an ideal magnetohydrodynamic
(MHD) catastrophe, which belongs to a global magnetic topological instability
of the system, or by a fast magnetic reconnection across preexisting or
rapidly-developing electric current sheets. Both ways of magnetic energy
release are thought to be important to CME dynamics. To disentangle their
contributions, we construct a flux rope catastrophe model in the corona and
solar wind and compare different cases in which we either prohibit or allow
magnetic reconnection to take place across rapidly-growing current sheets
during the eruption. It is demonstrated that CMEs, even fast ones, can be
produced taking the ideal MHD catastrophe as the only process of magnetic
energy release. Nevertheless, the eruptive speed can be significantly enhanced
after magnetic reconnection sets in. In addition, a smooth transition from slow
to fast eruptions is observed when increasing the strength of the background
magnetic field, simply because in a stronger field there is more free magnetic
energy at the catastrophic point available to be released during an eruption.
This suggests that fast and slow CMEs may have an identical driving mechanism.

Reconnection | 7 pages, 4 figures, Adv. Spa. Res., in press, | Adv.Space Res.40:1780-1786,2007 | 10.1016/j.asr.2007.02.011 | null | astro-ph | null | It remains an open question how magnetic energy is rapidly released in the
solar corona so as to create solar explosions such as solar flares and coronal
mass ejections (CMEs). Recent studies have confirmed that a system consisting
of a flux rope embedded in a background field exhibits a catastrophic behavior,
and the energy threshold at the catastrophic point may exceed the associated
open field energy. The accumulated free energy in the corona is abruptly
released when the catastrophe takes place, and it probably serves as the main
means of energy release for CMEs at least in the initial phase. Such a release
proceeds via an ideal MHD process in contrast with nonideal ones such as
magnetic reconnection. The catastrophe results in a sudden formation of
electric current sheets, which naturally provide proper sites for fast magnetic
reconnection. The reconnection may be identified with a solar flare associated
with the CME on one hand, and produces a further acceleration of the CME on the
other. On this basis, several preliminary suggestions are made for future
observational investigations, especially with the proposed KuaFu satellites, on
the roles of the MHD catastrophe and magnetic reconnection in the magnetic
energy release associated with CMEs and flares.

study the doubly-differential transverse-momentum (q_T) and rapidity (y)
distribution of the Higgs boson in perturbative QCD. In the region of small q_T
(q_T << M_H, M_H being the mass of the Higgs boson), we include the effect of
logarithmically-enhanced contributions due to multiparton radiation to all
perturbative orders. We use the impact parameter and double Mellin moments to
implement and factorize the multiparton kinematics constraint of transverse-
and longitudinal-momentum conservation. The logarithmic terms are then
systematically resummed in exponential form. At small q_T, we perform the
all-order resummation of large logarithms up to next-to-next-to-leading
logarithmic accuracy, while at large q_T (q_T ~ M_H), we apply a matching
procedure that recovers the fixed-order perturbation theory up to
next-to-leading order. We present quantitative results for the differential
cross section in q_T and y at the LHC, and we comment on the comparison with
the q_T cross section integrated over y.

Computer Science (24/11/2004) 135-147 | 10.1007/b104325 | null | cs.LO | null | We consider the problem of symbolic reachability analysis of higher-order
context-free processes. These models are generalizations of the context-free
processes (also called BPA processes) where each process manipulates a data
structure which can be seen as a nested stack of stacks. Our main result is
that, for any higher-order context-free process, the set of all predecessors of
a given regular set of configurations is regular and effectively constructible.
This result generalizes the analogous result which is known for level 1
context-free processes. We show that this result holds also in the case of
backward reachability analysis under a regular constraint on configurations. As
a corollary, we obtain a symbolic model checking algorithm for the temporal
logic E(U,X) with regular atomic predicates, i.e., the fragment of CTL
restricted to the EU and EX modalities.

scientific programs, the involvement of a number of institutions with
individual Telescope Allocation Committees as well as engineering and
instrument commissioning. We have continuously revised our queue operations as
we have learned from experience. The flexibility of the queue and the
simultaneous availability of three instruments, along with a staff trained for
all aspects of telescope and instrumentation operation, have allowed optimum
use to be made of variable weather conditions and have proven to be especially
effective at accommodating targets of opportunity and engineering tasks. In
this paper we review the methodology of the HET queue along with its strengths
and weaknesses.

macroscopically in equilibrium within a closed region in the $T$-$h$ plane. It
occurence is favored near tricriticality. We find a field-induced critical
point, where the correlation length diverges, the difference of the coexisting
two phases and the surface tension vanish, but the isothermal magnetic
susceptibility does not diverge in the mean field theory. We also investigate
phase ordering numerically.

4-dimensional Lorentzian general relativity motivated by the canonical
quantization. The starting point is Lorentz covariant loop quantum gravity. Its
kinematical Hilbert space is found as a space of the so-called projected spin
networks. These spin networks are identified with the boundary states of a spin
foam model and provide a generalization of the unique Barrette-Crane
intertwiner. We propose a way to modify the Barrett-Crane quantization
procedure to arrive at this generalization: the B field (bi-vectors) should be
promoted not to generators of the gauge algebra, but to their certain
projection. The modification is also justified by the canonical analysis of
Plebanski formulation. Finally, we compare our construction with other
proposals to modify the Barret-Crane model.

universe is undergoing a late-time acceleration, the mechanism of this
acceleration is yet unknown. In the so-called thick brane model this phenomena
is attributed to the thickness of the brane along the extra dimension. In this
study we mainly rely to the consistency of this model with most recent
observational data related to the background evolution. The new Supernova Type
Ia (SNIa) Gold sample and Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) data, the position of
the acoustic peak at the last scattering surface from the WMAP observations and
the baryon acoustic oscillation peak found in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
(SDSS) are used to constrain the free parameter of the thick codimension 1
brane model. To infer its consistency with age of our universe, we compare the
age of old cosmological objects with what computed using the best fit values
for the model parameters. When the universe is matter dominated, $w=0$, at 68%
level of confidence, the combination of Gold sample SNIa, CMB shift parameter
and SDSS databases provides $\Omega_m=0.31_{-0.02}^{+0.02}$,
$\Omega_{\cal{C}}=0.05_{-0.01}^{+0.01}$, $w_r=-1.40_{-0.20}^{+0.20}$, hence a
spatially open universe with $\Omega_k=0.21_{-0.08}^{+0.08}$. The same
combination with SNLS supernova observation gives
$\Omega_m=0.28_{-0.02}^{+0.03}$, $\Omega_{\cal{C}}=0.037_{-0.004}^{+0.003}$,
$w_r=-2.05_{-0.15}^{+0.15}$ consequently provides a spatially open universe
$\Omega_k=0.11_{-0.07}^{+0.10}$. These results obviously seem to be in
contradiction with the most recent WMAP results indicating a flat universe.

designing computers have taken us to a stage where we can understand the
optimisation principles at the root of this system, from the availability of
basic building blocks to the execution of tasks. The languages of DNA and
