Analyzing the Fierz rearrangement freedom for local chiral two-nucleon potentials

Chiral effective field theory is a framework to derive systematic nuclear interactions. It is based on the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics and includes long-range pion physics explicitly, while shorter-range physics is expanded in a general operator basis. The number of low-energy couplings at a particular order in the expansion can be reduced by exploiting the fact that nucleons are fermions and therefore obey the Pauli exclusion principle. The antisymmetry permits the selection of a subset of the allowed contact operators at a given order. When local regulators are used for these short-range interactions, however, this “Fierz rearrangement freedom” is violated. In this paper, we investigate the impact of this violation at leading order (LO) in the chiral expansion. We construct LO and next-to-leading order (NLO) potentials for all possible LO-operator pairs and study their reproduction of phase shifts, the 4 He ground-state energy, and the neutron-matter energy at different densities. We demonstrate that the Fierz rearrangement freedom is partially restored at NLO where subleading contact interactions enter. Here we also discuss implications for local chiral three-nucleon interactions.

Soil Respiration Responses to Throughfall Exclusion Are Decoupled From Changes in Soil Moisture for Four Tropical Forests, Suggesting Processes for Ecosystem Models

Abstract Climatic drying is predicted for many tropical forests yet models remain poorly parameterized for these ecosystems, hampering predictions of forest‐climate interactions. We applied an integrated model–experiment approach, parameterizing an ecosystem model with tropical forest observational data and comparing model predictions to a field drying manipulation. We hypothesized that drying suppresses soil CO 2 fluxes (i.e., respiration) in relatively dry tropical forests but increases CO 2 fluxes in wetter tropical forests by alleviating anaerobiosis. We measured soil CO 2 fluxes during wet‐dry cycles from 2015 to 2022 in four Panamanian forests that vary in rainfall and soil fertility. Measured soil CO 2 fluxes declined in the dry season and peaked in the early wet season ahead of peak soil moisture, resulting in lower soil moisture optima for respiration than previously modeled. We then parameterized the model using field data and the new moisture‐respiration response functions. The updated model predicted increased soil CO 2 fluxes with drying in wetter and fertile forests and suppressed fluxes in drier, infertile forests. In contrast to model predictions, a chronic throughfall exclusion experiment initially suppressed soil respiration across forests, with sustained suppression for four years in the wettest forest only (−28% ± 4% during the dry season). In the fertile forest, drying eventually elevated CO 2 fluxes over this period (+75% ± 28% during the late wet season). The unexpected negative drying effect in the wettest, infertile forest could have resulted from reduced vertical flushing of nutrients into soils. Including hydro‐nutrient interactions in ecosystem models could improve predictions of tropical forest‐climate feedbacks.

Exclusive muon neutrino charged current pion-less topologies. ArgoNeuT results and future prospects in LAr TPC detectors

Results from the analysis of charged current pion-less (CC 0-pion) muon neutrino events in argon collected by the ArgoNeuT experiment on the NuMI beam at Fermilab are presented and compared with predictions from Monte Carlo simulations. A novel analysis method, based on the reconstruction of exclusive topologies, fully exploiting the Liquid argon Time Projection Chamber (LAr TPC) technique capabilities, is used to analyze the events, characterized by the presence at the vertex of a leading muon track eventually accompanied by one or more highly ionizing tracks, and study nuclear effects in neutrino interactions on argon nuclei. Multiple protons accompanying the leading muon are visible in the ArgoNeuT events, and measured with a proton reconstruction threshold of 21 MeV kinetic energy. As a result, measurements of (anti-)neutrino CC 0-pion inclusive and exclusive cross sections on argon nuclei are reported. Prospects for future, larger mass LAr TPC detectors are discussed.

Emergent Chern-Simons interactions in 3+1 dimensions

Parity-violating superconductors can support a low-dimension local interaction that becomes, upon condensation, a purely spatial Chern-Simons term. Solutions to the resulting generalized London equations can be obtained from solutions of the ordinary London equations with a complex penetration depth, and suggest several remarkable physical phenomena. The problem of flux exclusion by a sphere brings in an anapole moment, the problem of current-carrying wires brings in an azimuthal magnetic field, and the problem of vortices brings in currents along the vortices. We demonstrate that interactions of this kind, together with a conceptually related dimensionally reduced Chern-Simons interaction, can arise from physically plausible microscopic interactions.

Critical role of solvation on CC13 porous organic cages for design of porous liquids

Efficient carbon capture requires the design of new materials with high CO 2 selectivity and gas adsorption capacity that can be incorporated into existing industrial processes. Porous liquids (PLs) are promising candidate materials that consist of a nanoporous host and a solvent forming a liquid with permanent porosity based on exclusion of the solvent from the interior of the nanoporous host. Stable PLs are based on solvent-nanoporous host interactions, which can be evaluated through molecular simulations. Here, time- and temperature-dependent density functional theory simulations were performed between four solvents, 2-bromophenol, 4-methylphenol, 2,4-dimethylphenol, and cyclohexanone and the CC13 porous organic cage (POC) as a prototypical PL composition. Overall, minimal reactions occurred in the PL including no changes in the POC structure. Additionally, POC-solvent coordination occurred through interactions of neighboring functional groups such as methyl/bromide and hydroxyl on the solvent molecules with the POC surface. Therefore, the location rather than the number of functional groups on the solvent molecule controls the POC-solvent interactions. Additionally, the POC pore window contracted or expanded up to 8% during solvation, which correlates with the experimental solubility and static solvent-POC binding, where solvents that caused less contraction of the POC pore window increased POC solubility. Finally, these results allow for the design of optimized POC-based PL compositions based on solvent-nanoporous host binding and variation in the pore window during solvation.

First results on nucleon resonance electroexcitation amplitudes from ep → e'π + π – p' cross sections at W = 1.4–1.7 GeV and Q 2 = 2.0–5.0 GeV 2

The electroexcitation amplitudes or $\gamma_vpN^*$ electrocouplings of the $N(1440)1/2^+$, $N(1520)3/2^-$, and $\Delta(1600)3/2^+$ resonances were obtained for the first time from the $ep \to e'\pi^+\pi^-p'$ differential cross sections measured with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab within the range of invariant mass $W$ of the final state hadrons from 1.4–1.7~GeV for photon virtualities $Q^2$ from 2.0--5.0~GeV$^2$. A good description of the nine independent one-fold differential $\gamma_v p\to \pi^+\pi^-p'$ cross sections achieved within the data-driven Jefferson Lab-Moscow State University (JM) meson-baryon reaction model in each bin of ($W$,$Q^2$) allows for separation of the resonant and non-resonant contributions. The electrocouplings were determined in the fits of the $\pi^+\pi^-p$ cross sections within three overlapping $W$ intervals with a substantial contribution from each of the three resonances listed above. Consistent results on the electrocouplings extracted from the data in these $W$ intervals provide evidence for their reliable extraction. These studies extend information on the electrocouplings of the $N(1440)1/2^+$ and $N(1520)3/2^-$ available from this channel over a broader range of $Q^2$. The electrocouplings of the $\Delta(1600)3/2^+$, which decays preferentially into $\pi\pi N$ final states, have been determined for the first time. Here, the reliable extraction of the electrocouplings for these states is also supported by the description of the $\pi^+\pi^-p$ differential cross sections with $Q^2$-independent masses and total/partial hadronic decay widths into the $\pi\Delta$ and $\rho p$ final states.

Searching for TeV Dark Matter in Irregular Dwarf Galaxies with HAWC Observatory

We present the results of dark matter (DM) searches in a sample of 31 dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxies within the field of view of the HAWC Observatory. dIrr galaxies are DM-dominated objects in which astrophysical gamma-ray emission is estimated to be negligible with respect to the secondary gamma-ray flux expected by annihilation or decay of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). While we do not see any statistically significant DM signal in dIrr galaxies, we present the exclusion limits (95% C.L.) for annihilation cross section and decay lifetime for WIMP candidates with masses between 1 and 100 TeV. Exclusion limits from dIrr galaxies are relevant and complementary to benchmark dwarf Spheroidal (dSph) galaxies. In fact, dIrr galaxies are targets kinematically different from benchmark dSph, preserving the footprints of different evolution histories. We compare the limits from dIrr galaxies to those from ultrafaint and classical dSph galaxies previously observed with HAWC. We find that the constraints are comparable to the limits from classical dSph galaxies and ~2 orders of magnitude weaker than the ultrafaint dSph limits.

Exclusive Four-pion Photoproduction in Ultra-peripheral Heavy-Ion Collisions at RHIC and LHC Energies

We study the photoproduction of exclusive 2π + 2 - mesons in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions at the RHIC and LHC energies. Predictions in photon–nucleus interactions are calculated for various resonances at central and forward rapidities. The recent H1 preliminary data are utilized to improve the description of the poorly known γp → 4π ± p process. We present the comparisons of our results to the available STAR data at RHIC, and made predictions for the LHC energies.

Hot Subdwarf Stars Among the Objects Rejected from the PG Catalog: a First Assessment Using GALEX Photometry

The hot subdwarf (sd) stars in the Palomar Green (PG) catalog of ultraviolet excess (UVX) objects play a key role in investigations of the frequency and types of binary companions and the distribution of orbital periods. These are important for establishing whether and by which channels the sd stars arise from interactions in close binary systems. It has been suggested that the list of PG sd stars is biased by the exclusion of many stars in binaries, whose spectra show the Ca I1 K line in absorption. A total of 1125 objects that were photometrically selected as candidates were ultimately rejected from the final PG catalog using this K-line criterion. We study 88 of these 'PG-Rejects' (PGRs), to assess whether there are significant numbers of unrecognized sd stars in binaries among the PGR objects. The presence of a sd should cause a large UVX, compared with the cool K-line star. We assemble GALEX, Johnson V, and 2MASS photometry and compare the colors of these PGR objects with those of known sd stars, cool single stars, and hot+cool binaries. Sixteen PGRs were detected in both the far- and near-ultraviolet GALEX passbands. Eleven of these, plus the 72 cases with only an upper limit in the far-ultraviolet band, are interpreted as single cool stars, appropriately rejected by the PG spectroscopy. Of the remaining five stars, three are consistent with being sd stars paired with a cool main sequence companion, while two may be single stars or composite systems of another type. We discuss the implications of these findings for the 1125 PGR objects as a whole. An enlarged study is desirable to increase confidence in these first results and to identify individual sd+cool binaries or other composites for follow-up study. The GALEX AIS data have sufficient sensitivity to carry out this larger study.

Search for high-mass exclusive diphoton production with tagged protons in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV

A search is presented for high-mass exclusive diphoton production via photon-photon fusion in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV in events where both protons survive the interaction. The analysis utilizes data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 103 fb − 1 collected in 2016–2018 with the central CMS detector and the CMS and TOTEM precision proton spectrometer (PPS). Events that have two photons with high transverse momenta ( p T γ > 100 GeV ), back-to-back in azimuth, and with a large diphoton invariant mass ( m γ γ > 350 GeV ) are selected. To remove the dominant inclusive diphoton backgrounds, the kinematic properties of the protons detected in PPS are required to match those of the central diphoton system. Only events having opposite-side forward protons detected with a fractional momentum loss between 0.035 and 0.15 (0.18) for the detectors on the negative (positive) side of CMS are considered. One exclusive diphoton candidate is observed for an expected background of 1.1 events. Limits at 95% confidence level are derived for the four-photon anomalous coupling parameters | ζ 1 | < 0.073 TeV − 4 and | ζ 2 | < 0.15 TeV − 4 , using an effective field theory. Additionally, upper limits are placed on the production of axionlike particles with coupling strength to photons f − 1 that varies from 0.03 TeV − 1 to 1 TeV − 1 over the mass range from 500 to 2000 GeV. © 2024 CERN, for the CMS and TOTEMs Collaboration 2024 CERN

Search for CP violation in events with top quarks and Z bosons at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 and 13.6 TeV

A search for the violation of the charge-parity (CP) symmetry in the production of top quarks in association with Z bosons is presented, using events with at least three charged leptons and additional jets. The search is performed in a sample of proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2016–2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and in 2022 at 13.6 TeV, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 173 fb –1 . For the first time in this final state, observables that are odd under the CP transformation are employed. Also for the first time, physics-informed machine-learning techniques are used to construct these observables. While for standard model (SM) processes the distributions of these observables are predicted to be symmetric around zero, CP-violating modifications of the SM would introduce asymmetries. Two CP-odd operators $\mathcal{O}$$^{I}_{tW}$ and $\mathcal{O}$$^{I}_{tZ}$ in the SM effective field theory are considered that may modify the interactions between top quarks and electroweak bosons. The obtained results are consistent with the SM prediction within two standard deviations, and exclusion limits on the associated Wilson coefficients of –2.7 < $c$$^{I}_{tW}$ < 2.5 and –0.2 < $c$$^{I}_{tZ}$ < 2.0 and are set at 95 % confidence level. The largest discrepancy is observed in $c$$^{I}_{tZ}$ where data is consistent with positive values, with an observed local significance with respect to the SM hypothesis of 2.5 standard deviations, when only linear terms are considered.

Cr 2.37 Ga 3 Se 8 : A Quasi-Two-Dimensional Magnetic Semiconductor

We present a novel magnetic semiconductor, Cr 2.37 Ga 3 Se 8 , synthesized by partially replacing magnetic Cr 3+ in antiferromagnetic Cr 5+δ Se 8 with nonmagnetic Ga 3+ . The crystal structure of Cr 2.37 Ga 3 Se 8 was determined by both powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in a monoclinic structure with space group C2/m (No. 12). In Cr 2.37 Ga 3 Se 8 , the Cr atoms are surrounded by 6 Se atoms and form filled octahedral clusters, while Ga atoms are centered in the Se 4 tetrahedral clusters. The two kinds of clusters pack alternatingly along the c-axis, which results in a quasi-two-dimensional layered structure. The magnetization (M) measurement shows the development of short-range ferromagnetic coupling below the Curie-Weiss (CW) temperature θ CW ~ 92 K, evidenced by the nonlinear field dependence of M. However, the magnetic susceptibility exhibits a peak at low fields at ~18 K, indicating the existence of an antiferromagnetic interaction as well. Electronic structure calculations using the WIEN2k program in the local spin density approximation indicate that the magnetism arises exclusively from local moments of the Cr atoms. Here, the electrical resistivity measurement of the Cr 2.37 Ga 3 Se 8 sample confirms that this material is a semiconductor with the band gap ~0.26 eV. Meanwhile, the experimental band gap (~0.26 eV) is close to the theoretical prediction using the WIEN2k program (~0.35 eV).

Diffusion of Hydrophilic to Hydrophobic Forms of Nile Red in Aqueous C 12 EO 10 Gels by Variable Area Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy

In this work, solute diffusion within lyotropic liquid crystal gels prepared from a series of water and decaethylene glycol monododecyl ether (C 12 EO 10 ) mixtures was explored by variable area fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. Aqueous C 12 EO 10 gels were prepared in concentrations ranging from 55:45 to 70:30 wt% of surfactant and water. Small angle X-ray scattering revealed that these gels comprise hexagonal mesophases of cylindrical micelles. Micelle spacing was found to decrease with increasing C 12 EO 10 concentration. Three different Nile red (NR) dyes were employed as model solutes and were separately doped into the gels at nanomolar levels. These include a hydrophilic form of NR incorporating an anionic sulfonate group (NRSO 3 - ), a hydrophobic form incorporating a fourteen-carbon alkane tail (NRC 14 ), and commercial NR as an intermediate case. FCS data acquired from the gels revealed that NRSO 3 - diffused primarily in 3D. Its diffusion coefficient exhibited a monotonic decrease with increasing gel concentration and micelle packing density, consistent with confinement of its motions as a result of its exclusion from the micelle cores. NRC 14 exhibited the smallest diffusion coefficient, most likely due to its larger size and enhanced interactions with the micelle cores. NR yielded an intermediate diffusion coefficient and the most anomalous behavior of the three dyes, attributable to its facile partitioning between core and corona regions, and greater participation by 1D diffusion. The results of these studies afford an improved understanding of molecular mass transport through soft-matter nanomaterials like those being developed for use in drug delivery and membrane based chemical separations.

H α emission in the nebular spectrum of the Type Ia supernova ASASSN-18tb

ABSTRACT As part of the 100IAS survey, a program aimed to obtain nebular-phase spectra for a volume-limited and homogeneous sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), we observed ASASSN-18tb (SN 2018fhw) at 139 d past maximum light. ASASSN-18tb was a fast-declining, sub-luminous event that fits well within the observed photometric and spectroscopic distributions of the SN Ia population. We detect a prominent H α emission line (LH α = 2.2 ± 0.2 × 1038 ergs s−1) with FWHM ≈ 1100 km s−1 in the nebular-phase spectrum of this SN Ia. High-luminosity H α emission (LH α ≳ 1040 ergs s−1) has previously been discovered in a rare class of SNe Ia-like objects showing circum-stellar medium (CSM) interactions (SNe Ia–CSM). They predominantly belong to overluminous (Mmax < −19 mag in optical) 1991T-like SNe Ia and are exclusively found in star-forming galaxies. By contrast, ASASSN-18tb is a sub-luminous SN Ia (MB,max ∼ −17.7 mag) found in an early-type galaxy dominated by old stellar populations. We discuss possible origins for the observed hydrogen. Of the 75 SNe Ia for which we have so far obtained nebular spectra in 100IAS, no other SN shows a ${\sim } 1000 \, {\rm km\, s^{-1}}$ H α emission line with comparable line luminosity as ASASSN-18tb, emphasizing the rarity of such emission in the nebular phase. Based on preliminary results from our survey, the rate for ASASSN-18tb-like nebular H α emission could be as high as ${\sim } 10{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ among sub-luminous SNe Ia.

mTORC1 Promotes ARID1A Degradation and Oncogenic Chromatin Remodeling in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Abstract The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes control accessibility of chromatin to transcriptional and coregulatory machineries. Chromatin remodeling plays important roles in normal physiology and diseases, particularly cancer. The ARID1A-containing SWI/SNF complex is commonly mutated and thought to be a key tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its regulation in response to oncogenic signals remains poorly understood. mTOR is a conserved central controller of cell growth and an oncogenic driver of HCC. Remarkably, cancer mutations in mTOR and SWI/SNF complex are mutually exclusive in human HCC tumors, suggesting that they share a common oncogenic function. Here, we report that mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) interact with ARID1A and regulates ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of ARID1A protein. The mTORC1–ARID1A axis promoted oncogenic chromatin remodeling and YAP-dependent transcription, thereby enhancing liver cancer cell growth in vitro and tumor development in vivo. Conversely, excessive ARID1A expression counteracted AKT-driven liver tumorigenesis in vivo. Moreover, dysregulation of this axis conferred resistance to mTOR-targeted therapies. These findings demonstrate that the ARID1A–SWI/SNF complex is a regulatory target for oncogenic mTOR signaling, which is important for mTORC1-driven hepatocarcinogenesis, with implications for therapeutic interventions in HCC. Significance: mTOR promotes oncogenic chromatin remodeling by controlling ARID1A degradation, which is important for liver tumorigenesis and response to mTOR- and YAP-targeted therapies in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Search for an Excess of Electron Neutrino Interactions in MicroBooNE Using Multiple Final State Topologies (submitted to PRL)

We present a measurement of ν e interactions from the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam using the MicroBooNE liquid argon time projection chamber to address the nature of the excess of low energy interactions observed by the MiniBooNE collaboration. Three independent ν e searches are performed across multiple single electron final states, including an exclusive search for two-body scattering events with a single proton, a semi-inclusive search for pionless events, and a fully inclusive search for events containing all hadronic final states. With differing signal topologies, statistics, backgrounds, reconstruction algorithms, and analysis approaches, the results are found to be consistent with the nominal ν e rate expectations from the Booster Neutrino Beam and no excess of ν e events is observed.

Exclusive four pion photoproduction in ultraperipheral Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV

The intense photon fluxes from relativistic nuclei provide an opportunity to study photonuclear interactions in ultraperipheral collisions. The measurement of coherently photoproduced π + π − π + π − final states in ultraperipheral Pb–Pb collisions at √s NN = 5.02 TeV is presented for the first time. The cross section, dσ/dy, times the branching ratio (ρ →π + π + π − π − ) is found to be 47.8±2.3 (stat.)± 7.7 (syst.) mb in the rapidity interval |y| < 0.5. The invariant mass distribution is not well described with a single Breit-Wigner resonance. The production of two interfering resonances, ρ(1450) and ρ(1700), provides a good description of the data. The values of the masses (m) and widths (Γ) of the resonances extracted from the fit are m 1 = 1385±14 (stat.)±3 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , Γ 1 = 431±36 (stat.)±82 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , m 2 = 1663±13 (stat.)±22 (syst.) MeV/c 2 and Γ 2 = 357 ± 31 (stat.)±49 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , respectively. The measured cross sections times the branching ratios are compared to recent theoretical predictions.

Diffractive Physics Program at the Electron–Ion Collider’s (EIC) 2 nd Detector

The Electron–Ion Collider (EIC) will be a novel experimental facility to explore the properties of gluons in nucleons and nuclei, shedding light on their structure and dynamics. The EIC community outlined the physics program of the EIC in a White Paper, and the demanding detector re quirements and potential technologies to deploy at an EIC detector were published in a comprehensive Yellow Report. The general-purpose detector resulting from these efforts, ePIC, is designed to perform a broad physics program. At the same time, the wider EIC community is strongly in favor of a second detector at the EIC. Having two general-purpose collider detec tors to support the EIC science program allows us to have cross-checks and control of systematic uncertainties for potential scientific discoveries. The second detector should feature complementary technologies where possible. It can also focus on specific measurements that are less well-addressed by ePIC. The second interaction region provides potentially improved forward detector acceptance at low pT and a secondary beam focus that enables to enhance the exclusive, tagging, and diffractive physics program. Hereby, I will present the potential capabilities of the second detector and discuss studies related to its diffractive physics program.
