Two-particle multichannel systems in a finite volume with arbitrary spin

The quantization condition for two-particle systems with arbitrary number of two-body open coupled channels, spin and masses in a finite cubic volume with either periodic or twisted boundary conditions is presented. The condition presented is in agreement with all previous studies of two-body systems in a finite volume. The result is relativistic, holds for all momenta below the three- and four-particle thresholds, and is exact up to exponential volume corrections that are governed by L/r, where L is the spatial extent of the volume and r is the range of the interactions between the particles. With hadronic systems the range of the interaction is set by the inverse of the pion mass, m π , and as a result the formalism presented is suitable for m π L>>1. Implications of the formalism for the studies of multichannel baryon-baryon systems are discussed.

Self-consistent calculation of the Sommerfeld enhancement

A calculation of the Sommerfeld enhancement is presented and applied to the problem of s-wave non-relativistic dark matter annihilation. The difference from previous computations in the literature is that the effect of the underlying short-range scattering process is consistently included together with the long-range force in the effective QM Schrödinger problem. Our procedure satisfies partial-wave unitarity where previous calculations fail. We provide analytic results for some potentials of phenomenological relevance.

Kinetic relaxation and nucleation of Bose stars in self-interacting wave dark matter

We revisit kinetic relaxation and soliton/boson star nucleation in fuzzy scalar dark matter featuring short-ranged self-interactions H int = − λ | ψ | 4 / 2 m 2 , alongside gravitational self-interactions. We map out the full curve of nucleation timescale for both repulsive ( λ < 0 ) and attractive ( λ > 0 ) short-ranged self-interaction strength and in doing so reveal two new points. Firstly, besides the two usual terms, ∝ G 2 and ∝ λ 2 , in the total relaxation rate Γ relax , there is an additional cross term ∝ G λ arising due to interference between gravitational and short-ranged self-interaction scattering amplitudes. This yields a critical repulsive interaction strength λ cr ≃ − 2 π G m 2 / v 0 2 , at which the relaxation rate is smallest and serves as the transition point between typical net attractive self-interaction ( λ ≳ λ cr ) and net repulsive self-interaction ( − λ ≳ − λ cr ). Secondly, while in the net attractive regime, nucleation timescale is similar to inverse relaxation timescale τ nuc ∼ Γ relax − 1 ; in the net repulsive regime, nucleation occurs at a delayed time τ nuc ∼ ( λ / λ cr ) Γ relax − 1 . We confirm our analytical understanding by performing 3D field simulations with varying average mass density ρ ¯ , box size L and grid size N . Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Response theory of the ergodic many-body delocalized phase: Keldysh Finkel’stein sigma models and the 10-fold way

We derive the finite temperature Keldysh response theory for interacting fermions in the presence of quenched short-ranged disorder, as applicable to any of the 10 Altland–Zirnbauer classes in an Anderson delocalized phase with at least a U(1) continuous symmetry. In this formulation of the interacting Finkel’stein nonlinear sigma model, the statistics of one-body wave functions are encoded by the constrained matrix field, while physical correlations follow from the hydrodynamic density or spin response field, which decouples the interactions. Integrating out the matrix field first, we obtain weak (anti) localization and Altshuler–Aronov quantum conductance corrections from the hydrodynamic response function. This procedure automatically incorporates the correct infrared cutoff physics, and in particular gives the Altshuler–Aronov–Khmelnitsky (AAK) equations for dephasing of weak (anti)localization due to electron–electron collisions. We explicate the method by deriving known quantumcorrections in two dimensions for the symplectic metal class AII, as well as the spin-SU(2) invariant superconductor classes C and CI. We show that quantum conductance corrections due to the special modes at zero energy in nonstandard classes are automatically cut off by temperature, as previously expected, while the Wigner–Dyson class Cooperon modes that persist to all energies are cut by dephasing. We also show that for short-ranged interactions, the standard self-consistent solution for the dephasing rate is equivalent to a particular summation of diagrams via the self-consistent Born approximation. This should be compared to the corresponding AAK solution for long-ranged Coulomb interactions, which exploits the Markovian noise correlations induced by thermal fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. We discuss prospects for exploring the many-body localization transition as a dephasing catastrophe in short-range interacting models, as encountered by approaching from the ergodic side. - Highlights: • The Keldysh response theory for disordered, interacting fermions is derived. • The theory applies to any Altland–Zirnbauer class with at least a U(1) symmetry. • The correct infrared physics at finite temperature is automatically incorporated. • The Altshuler–Aronov–Khmelnitsky equations for dephasing are systematically derived. • A strategy to explore the MBL transition as a dephasing catastrophe is proposed.

Scaling molecular dynamics beyond 100,000 processor cores for large-scale biophysical simulations

The growing interest in the complexity of biological interactions is continuously driving the need to increase system size in biophysical simulations, requiring not only powerful and advanced hardware but adaptable software that can accommodate a large number of atoms interacting through complex force fields. To address this, we developed and implemented strategies in the GENESIS molecular dynamics package designed for large numbers of processors. Long–range electrostatic interactions were parallelized by minimizing the number of processes involved in communication. Here, a novel algorithm was implemented for nonbonded interactions to increase single instruction multiple data (SIMD) performance, reducing memory usage for ultra large systems. Memory usage for neighbor searches in real–space nonbonded interactions was reduced by approximately 80%, leading to significant speedup. Using experimental data describing physical 3D chromatin interactions, we constructed the first atomistic model of an entire gene locus (GATA4). Taken together, these developments enabled the first billion–atom simulation of an intact biomolecular complex, achieving scaling to 65,000 processes (130,000 processor cores) with 1 ns/day performance.

Spirals and skyrmions in antiferromagnetic triangular lattices

In this work, we study realizations of spirals and skyrmions in two-dimensional antiferromagnets with a triangular lattice on an inversion-symmetry-breaking substrate. As a possible material realization, we investigate the adsorption of transition-metal atoms (Cr, Mn, Fe, or Co) on a monolayer of MoS 2 , WS 2 , or WSe 2 and obtain the exchange, anisotropy, and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction parameters using first-principles calculations. Using energy minimization and parallel-tempering Monte Carlo simulations, we determine the magnetic phase diagrams for a wide range of interaction parameters. We find that skyrmion lattices can appear even with weak Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, but their stability is hindered by magnetic anisotropy. However, a weak easy plane magnetic anisotropy can be beneficial for stabilizing the skyrmion phase. Our results suggest that Cr/MoS 2 , Fe/MoS 2 , and Fe/WSe 2 interfaces can host spin spirals formed from the 120 degrees antiferromagnetic states. Our results further suggest that for interfaces, such as Fe/MoS 2 , the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is strong enough to drive the system into a three-sublattice skyrmion lattice in the presence of experimentally feasible external magnetic field.

Transverse Kinematic Imbalance in MicroBooNE's New nue CC0pi Measurements

Neutrino-nucleus cross section measurements require accurate modelling of neutrino interactions. Neutrino beams are not monoenergetic, and the energy of each interaction must instead be modelled using nuclear interaction assumptions. This introduces significant systematic uncertainty into cross section measurements. Effects such as Fermi motion, nuclear correlations, and final-state interactions (FSI) smear the underlying quasi-elastic scattering signal, making it difficult to disentangle genuine quasi-elastic kinematics from nuclear effects across the full range of interaction channels (QE, MEC, RES, DIS) probed in these measurements. Transverse Kinematic Imbalance (TKI) variables, such as $\delta p_T$ and $\delta \alpha_T$, probe this same phase space by exploiting the fact that the incoming neutrino has zero transverse momentum ($\vec{p}_T^{\,\nu} = 0$). Any measured transverse imbalance in the final state therefore arises from nuclear effects rather than from uncertainty in the incident neutrino energy, allowing cross section measurements to select a phase space that is rich in quasi-elastic-like events with minimal contamination from FSI and other nuclear effects, independent of energy reconstruction. Recent unfolded MicroBooNE cross section measurements of electron-neutrino charged-current interactions with zero pions and at least one proton ($\nu_e$ CC0$\pi$, 1eNp0$\pi$) show that several leading nuclear interaction generators (including GENIE variants, NuWro, GiBUU, and NEUT) reproduce the differential cross section in electron energy reasonably well, but consistently struggle to describe the differential cross section in the cosine of the leading proton's angle, yielding lower $p$-values across all seven generators tested. This tension points to a more fundamental, kinematics-driven disagreement between data and generators that is not visible in energy-only cross section observables. This is precisely the regime TKI variables are designed to probe. Following previous TKI cross section measurements with muon-neutrino data in MicroBooNE, this poster presents the case for extending the TKI framework to electron-neutrino cross section measurements as a next step to isolate and characterize the source of the observed generator tension in proton kinematics.

Tunable semiconductor laser with two acousto-optic tunable filters in its external cavity

We report a laser with a linear external cavity containing a near-IR injection semiconductor optical amplifier as a gain element and two acousto-optic tunable filters (AOTFs) with quasi-collinear interaction of acoustic and light waves. At identical frequencies of RF signals that control the filters and ensure compensation for the Doppler frequency shift of light passing through the AOTFs, the steady-state laser emission linewidth can be reduced to about 25 MHz, which is almost three orders of magnitude smaller than that in the case of one filter (20 GHz). The position of the emission line, which remains narrow, slowly fluctuates within a spectral range about 3 GHz wide, which seems to be due to the large length of the external cavity and insufficient thermal stabilization of its components. This does not prevent us from obtaining light with a large coherence length. In emission wavelength sweep mode, the instantaneous emission linewidth increases with tuning rate, reaching 0.022 nm (8.8 GHz) at the highest tuning rate: 10{sup 4} nm s{sup −1}. In the case of automatic control over the output optical power at a level of 3 mW, the tuning range is 815 – 875 nm. Such instruments are of practical interest for optical coherence tomography, spectroscopy, optical metrology, and other application areas. (lasers)

Long-range dispersion-corrected density functional for noncovalent interactions

Noncovalent interactions are important in determining structures and properties of molecular complexes and biological molecules, and for understanding adsorption processes in chemistry and biological science, and are still challenging to conventional density functional theories. In this work, the recently developed Tao-Mo (TM) meta-GGA (generalized gradient approximation) functional is combined with the D3 scheme of long-range van der Waals (vdW) interaction correction and the parameters of damping function are optimized with the S66[Formula: see text]×[Formula: see text]8 set. The resulting TM-D3 method is applied to the medium-sized molecular set S22 and large size molecular complexes set L7 to calculate intramolecular interaction energies. The TM-D3 method produces the best accuracy for the S22 set with a MAE of 0.2 kcal/mol, improving upon the PBE-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0.5 kcal/mol), PBE0-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0.5 kcal/mol), TPSS-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0.4 kcal/mol), M06L (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0.8 kcal/mol), and SCAN-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0.4 kcal/mol) methods. For the large size set L7, the TM-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]2.1 kcal/mol) also performs better than the PBE-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]2.6 kcal/mol), SCAN-D3 (2.5 kcal/mol) and M06L (3.0 kcal/mol), but not accurate than the PBE0-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0.8 kcal/mol) and TPSS-D3 (MAE[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]1.1 kcal/mol). However, overall, the TM-D3 method performs very well with an error of 2.7% of mean binding of the S22 set and an error of 12.6% of the mean binding of the L7 set for the two typical and important medium and large size molecular complex sets. The success of the dispersion-corrected TM functional benefits from the ability of the plain TM functional to capture the short-range vdW interaction or extend the short-range interaction to the middle range, and the right coupling between the TM and the long-range vdW correction D3 scheme, leading to the improved description of noncovalent interactions.

CONNECTIONS BETWEEN GALAXY MERGERS AND STARBURST: EVIDENCE FROM THE LOCAL UNIVERSE

Major mergers and interactions between gas-rich galaxies with comparable masses are thought to be the main triggers of starburst. In this work, we study, for a large stellar mass range, the interaction rate of the starburst galaxies in the local universe. We focus independently on central and satellite star forming galaxies extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Here the starburst galaxies are selected in the star formation rate (SFR) stellar mass plane with SFRs five times larger than the median value found for ''star forming'' galaxies of the same stellar mass. Through visual inspection of their images together with close companions determined using spectroscopic redshifts, we find that ∼50% of the ''starburst'' populations show evident merger features, i.e., tidal tails, bridges between galaxies, double cores, and close companions. In contrast, in the control sample we selected from the normal star forming galaxies, only ∼19% of galaxies are associated with evident mergers. The interaction rates may increase by ∼5% for the starburst sample and 2% for the control sample if close companions determined using photometric redshifts are considered. The contrast of the merger rate between the two samples strengthens the hypothesis that mergers and interactions are indeed the main causes of starburst.

Spin waves and high-frequency response in layered superconductors with helical magnetic structure

Here, we evaluate the spin-wave spectrum and dynamic susceptibility in a layered superconductor with helical interlayer magnetic structure. We especially focus on the structure in which the moments rotate 90 degrees from layer to layer realized in the iron pnictide RbEuFe 4 As 4 . While in nonmagnetic superconductors low-frequency magnetic field decays on the distance of the order of the London penetration depth, spin waves mediate its propagation to much larger distances limited by external dissipation mechanisms. The spin-wave spectrum in superconductors is strongly renormalized due to the long-range electromagnetic interactions between the oscillating magnetic moments. This leads to strong enhancement of the frequency of the mode coupled with uniform field and this enhancement exists only within a narrow range of the c-axis wave vectors of the order of the inverse London penetration depth. The key feature of materials like RbEuFe 4 As 4 is that this uniform mode corresponds to the maximum frequency of the spin-wave spectrum with respect to the c-axis wave vector. As a consequence, the high-frequency surface resistance acquires a very distinct asymmetric feature spreading between the bare and renormalized frequencies. Finally, we also consider excitation of spin waves with the Josephson effect in a tunneling contact between helical-magnetic and conventional superconductors and study the interplay between the spin-wave features and geometrical cavity resonances in the current-voltage characteristics.

Fermions in Two Dimensions: Scattering and Many-Body Properties

Ultracold atomic Fermi gases in two dimensions (2D) are an increasingly popular topic of research. The interaction strength between spin-up and spin-down particles in two-component Fermi gases can be tuned in experiments, allowing for a strongly interacting regime where the gas properties are yet to be fully understood. We have probed this regime for 2D Fermi gases by performing T = 0 ab initio diffusion Monte Carlo calculations. The many-body dynamics are largely dependent on the two-body interactions; therefore, we start with an in-depth look at scattering theory in 2D. We show the partial-wave expansion and its relation to the scattering length and effective range. Then, we discuss our numerical methods for determining these scattering parameters. Here, we close out this discussion by illustrating the details of bound states in 2D. Transitioning to the many-body system, we also use variationally optimized wave functions to calculate ground-state properties of the gas over a range of interaction strengths. We show results for the energy per particle and parametrize an equation of state. We then proceed to determine the chemical potential for the strongly interacting gas.

Tactile Display for EVA

As human spaceflight crews engage in more complex missions beyond low Earth orbit, their need for autonomy increases. ISS-like operations in which Earth-based mission control monitors life-critical systems and provides real time support for crew tasks will be limited by communication bandwidth and delays, forcing the crew to take on a subset of these responsibilities. This presents the biggest challenge during Extravehicular Activity (EVA)s, where the crew is already overloaded and their ability to interact with information systems is severely limited. Tactile displays, which present information using the sense of touch, expand the users' communication bandwidth. This untapped interface modality can be used for a wide range of interactions during EVA, including emergency alerts, non-emergency situational awareness, and simple instruction.

Polar Nanodomains in a Ferroelectric Superconductor

The mechanisms by which itinerant carriers compete with polar crystal distortions is a key unresolved issue for polar superconductors, which offer new routes to unconventional Cooper pairing. Strained, doped SrTiO 3 films undergo successive ferroelectric and superconducting transitions, making them ideal candidates to elucidate the nature of this competition. Here, we reveal these interactions using scanning transmission electron microscopy studies of the evolution of polar nanodomains as a function of doping. These nanodomains are a precursor to the ferroelectric phase and a measure of long-range Coulomb interactions. With increasing doping, the magnitude of the polar displacements, the nanodomain size, and the Curie temperature are systematically suppressed. In addition, we show that disorder caused by the dopant atoms themselves presents a second contribution to the destabilization of the ferroelectric state. Furthermore, the results provide evidence for two distinct mechanisms that suppress the polar transition with doping in a ferroelectric superconductor.

Final technical report for project titled Quantitative Characterization of Cell Aggregation/Adhesion as Predictor for Distribution and Transport of Microorganisms in Subsurface Environment

This project aims to explore and develop enabling methodology and techniques for nano-scale characterization of microbe cell surface contact mechanics, interactions and adhesion quantities that allow for identification and quantification of indicative properties related to microorganism migration and transport behavior in porous media and in subsurface environments. Microbe transport has wide impact and therefore is of great interest in various environmental applications such as in situ or enhanced subsurface bioremediation,filtration processes for water and wastewater treatments and protection of drinking water supplies. Although great progress has been made towards understanding the identities and activities of these microorganisms in the subsurface, to date, little is known of the mechanisms that govern the mobility and transport of microorganisms in DOE’s contaminated sites, making the outcomes of in situ natural attenuation or contaminant stability enhancement unpredictable. Conventionally, movement of microorganisms was believed to follows the rules governing solute (particle) transport. However, recent studies revealed that cell surface properties, especially those pertaining to cell attachment/adhesion and aggregation behavior, can cause the microbe behavior to deviate from non-viable particles and hence greatly influence the mobility and distribution of microorganisms in porous media.This complexity highlights the need to obtain detailed information of cell-cell and cell-surface interactions in order to improve and refine the conceptual and quantitative model development for fate and transport of microorganisms and contaminant in subsurface. Traditional cell surface characterization methods are not sufficient to fully predict the deposition rates and transport behaviors of microorganism observed. A breakthrough of methodology that would allow for quantitative and molecular-level description of intrinsic cell surface properties indicative for cell-surface interactions is essential for the field. To tackle this, we have developed a number of new Bio-nanomechanical techniques, including reflection interference contrast microscopy (RICM) and bio-AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy), for cell adhesion-detachment measurement of the long-range surface interactions, in combination with mathematical modeling, which would allow us to characterize the mechanical behavior from single cell to multi-cell aggregate, critical thresholds for large scale coaggregation and transportation of cells and aggregates in the presence of long range inter-surface forces etc. Although some technical and mathematical challenges remain, the preliminary results promise great breakthrough potential. In this study, we investigated the cellular surface characteristics of representative bio-remediating microorganisms relevant to DOE IFRC (Integrated Field-Scale Subsurface Research Challenges) sites and their transport behaviors in porous media, aiming to draw a groundbreaking correlation between the micro-scale genetic and biological origin-based cell surface properties, the consequent mechanical adhesion and aggregation behaviors, and the macro-scale microbial mobility and retention in porous media, which are unavailable in the literature. The long-term goal is to significantly improve the mechanistic and quantitative understanding of microbial mobility, sorption, and transport within reactive transport models as needed to manipulate subsurface contaminant fate and transport predictions.

Thermally induced magnetic relaxation in square artificial spin ice

The properties of natural and artificial assemblies of interacting elements, ranging from Quarks to Galaxies, are at the heart of Physics. The collective response and dynamics of such assemblies are dictated by the intrinsic dynamical properties of the building blocks, the nature of their interactions and topological constraints. Here in this paper, we report on the relaxation dynamics of the magnetization of artificial assemblies of mesoscopic spins. In our model nano-magnetic system $-$ square artificial spin ice $-$ we are able to control the geometrical arrangement and interaction strength between the magnetically interacting building blocks by means of nano-lithography. Using time resolved magnetometry we show that the relaxation process can be described using the Kohlrausch law and that the extracted temperature dependent relaxation times of the assemblies follow the Vogel-Fulcher law. The results provide insight into the relaxation dynamics of mesoscopic nano-magnetic model systems, with adjustable energy and time scales, and demonstrates that these can serve as an ideal playground for the studies of collective dynamics and relaxations.

A computational approach for the annotation of hydrogen-bonded base interactions in crystallographic structures of the ribozymes

A fundamental understanding of the atomic level interactions in ribonucleic acid (RNA) and how they contribute towards RNA architecture is an important knowledge platform to develop through the discovery of motifs from simple arrangements base pairs, to more complex arrangements such as triples and larger patterns involving non-standard interactions. The network of hydrogen bond interactions is important in connecting bases to form potential tertiary motifs. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of automated methods for annotating RNA 3D structures based on hydrogen bond interactions. COnnection tables Graphs for Nucleic ACids (COGNAC) is automated annotation system using graph theoretical approaches that has been developed for the identification of RNA 3D motifs. This program searches for patterns in the unbroken networks of hydrogen bonds for RNA structures and capable of annotating base pairs and higher-order base interactions, which ranges from triples to sextuples. COGNAC was able to discover 22 out of 32 quadruples occurrences of the Haloarcula marismortui large ribosomal subunit (PDB ID: 1FFK) and two out of three occurrences of quintuple interaction reported by the non-canonical interactions in RNA (NCIR) database. These and several other interactions of interest will be discussed in this paper. These examples demonstrate that the COGNAC program can serve as an automated annotation system that can be used to annotate conserved base-base interactions and could be added as additional information to established RNA secondary structure prediction methods.

Proceedings of RIKEN BNL Research Center Workshop: Multi-Hadron and Nonlocal Matrix Elements in Lattice QCD (Volume 120)

Nonperturbative QCD calculations of hadronic matrix elements are needed to understand the structure of the matter in our universe and to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. Numerical lattice gauge theory is uniquely suited for this task and has reached a remarkable level of precision. However, the types of observables that are accessible in a straightforward way are limited because lattice calculations are performed with imaginary time. Traditionally, lattice QCD determinations of hadronic matrix elements have been restricted to situations with at most one stable hadron in the initial and final states, and with a single insertion of a local current. This situation has been changing recently thanks to theoretical breakthroughs and pioneering numerical studies of new observables. At this workshop, the latest developments concerning multi-hadron systems and nonlocal matrix elements in lattice QCD were discussed: • Liischer's quantization condition relates the energy spectrum of two interacting particles in a finite volume to the scattering phase shifts. At this workshop, generalizations of Liischer's quantization condition to three-particle systems, and to two-particle systems with long-range QED interactions were presented. • Advanced numerical lattice QCD studies of hadronic resonances using the Liischer method were shown, including coupled-channel scattering and near-threshold resonances. • The Lellouch-Liischer formula relates two-hadron matrix elements computed in a finite volume to the infinite-volume matrix elements. This workshop included presentations of the latest numerical lattice QCD calculations ofthe nonleptonic weak decay K ® tl tl, as well as new theoretical results extending the Lellouch-Liischer formula to general multichannel 1 ® 2 transition matrix elements. • Novel methods allowing the direct calculation of parton distribution functions in lattice QCD were discussed, and a one-loop calculation of the lattice-to-continuum matching required for these methods was presented. • Lattice QCD calculations of nonlocal matrix elements relevant for rare kaon decays and for the Kl-Ks mass difference were shown. The inclusion of QED corrections in weak decays was discussed. Results from a new method for computing the hadronic light-by-light contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment were shown. • • Calculations of the binding energies and magnetic moments of light nuclei directly from lattice QCD were presented. The theoretical foundations of a potential-based method for studying multihadron interactions on the lattice were discussed, and an application of this method to charmed tetraquarks was shown.
