Abstract

This study proposes a deep learning-based method for monitoring the growth of Botrytis cinerea and evaluating the effectiveness of control measures. It aims to address the limitations of traditional statistical analysis methods in capturing non-linear relationships and multi-factor synergistic effects. The method integrates colony growth environment data and images as network inputs, achieving real-time prediction of colony area through an improved RepVGG network. The innovations include (1) combining channel attention mechanism, multi-head self-attention mechanism, and multi-scale feature extractor to improve prediction accuracy and (2) introducing the Shapley value algorithm to achieve a precise quantitative analysis of environmental variables’ contribution to colony growth. Experimental results show that the validation loss of this method reaches 0.007, with a mean absolute error of 0.0148, outperforming other comparative models. This study enriches the theory of gray mold control and provides information technology for optimizing and selecting its inhibitors.

Abstract

The grey wolf (Canis lupus) was the first species to give rise to a domestic population, and they remained widespread throughout the last Ice Age when many other large mammal species went extinct. Little is known, however, about the history and possible extinction of past wolf populations or when and where the wolf progenitors of the present-day dog lineage (Canis familiaris) lived1-8. Here we analysed 72 ancient wolf genomes spanning the last 100,000 years from Europe, Siberia and North America. We found that wolf populations were highly connected throughout the Late Pleistocene, with levels of differentiation an order of magnitude lower than they are today. This population connectivity allowed us to detect natural selection across the time series, including rapid fixation of mutations in the gene IFT88 40,000-30,000 years ago. We show that dogs are overall more closely related to ancient wolves from eastern Eurasia than to those from western Eurasia, suggesting a domestication process in the east. However, we also found that dogs in the Near East and Africa derive up to half of their ancestry from a distinct population related to modern southwest Eurasian wolves, reflecting either an independent domestication process or admixture from local wolves. None of the analysed ancient wolf genomes is a direct match for either of these dog ancestries, meaning that the exact progenitor populations remain to be located.

382. Running axial mass of the nucleon as a phenomenological tool for calculating QE neutrino-nucleus cross sections

Author

Subjects

Abstract

We suggest an empirical rule-of-thumb for calculating the cross sections of charged-current quasielastic (CCQE) and CCQE-like interactions of neutrinos and antineutrinos with nuclei. The approach is based on the standard relativistic Fermi-gas model and on the notion of neutrino energy dependent axial-vector mass of the nucleon, governed by a couple of adjustable parameters, one of which is the conventional charged-current axial-vector mass. The inelastic background contributions and final-state interactions are therewith simulated using GENIE 3 neutrino event generator. An extensive comparison of our calculations with earlier and current accelerator CCQE and CCQE-like data for different nuclear targets shows good or at least qualitative overall agreement over a wide energy range. We also discuss some problematical issues common to several competing contemporary models of the CCQE (anti)neutrino-nucleus scattering and to the current neutrino interaction generators., Comment: 58 pages, 37 figures

383. Dynamic Page Placement on Real Persistent Memory Systems

Abstract

As persistent memory (PM) technologies emerge, hybrid memory architectures combining DRAM with PM bring the potential to provide a tiered, byte-addressable main memory of unprecedented capacity. Nearly a decade after the first proposals for these hybrid architectures, the real technology has finally reached commercial availability with Intel Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory (DCPMM). This raises the challenge of designing systems that realize this potential in practice, namely through effective approaches that dynamically decide at which memory tier should pages be placed. In this paper, we are the first, to our knowledge, to systematically analyze tiered page placement on real DCPMM-based systems. To this end, we start by revisiting the assumptions of state-of-the-art proposals, and confronting them with the idiosyncrasies of today's off-the-shelf DCPMM-equipped architectures. This empirical study reveals that some of the key design choices in the literature rely on important assumptions that are not verified in present-day DRAM-DCPMM memory architectures. Based on the lessons from this study, we design and implement HyPlacer, a tool for tiered page placement in off-the-shelf Linux-based systems equipped with DRAM+DCPMM. In contrast to previous proposals, HyPlacer follows an approach guided by two main practicality principles: 1) it is tailored to the performance idiosyncrasies of off-theshelf DRAM+DCPMM systems; and 2) it can be seamlessly integrated into Linux with minimal kernel-mode components, while ensuring extensibility to other HMAs and other data placement policies. Our experimental evaluation of HyPlacer shows that it outperforms both solutions proposed in past literature and placement options that are currently available in off-the-shelf DCPMM-equipped Linux systems, reaching an improvement of up to 11x when compared to the default memory policy in Linux.

Abstract

In this paper, we present an algorithm to correct optical light curves obtained using The Zwicky Transient Facility Forced Photometry Service and its application to the analysis of optical variability of 136 actvie galactic nuclei (AGN) powered by "light-weight" supermassive black holes (SMBH; $M_{BH}$<2*10^6 $\odot$) including 24 intermediate-mass black holes (IMBH; $M_{BH}$<2*10^5 $\odot$). We detected variability in nearly all sources and also analyzed its dependence on the X-ray luminosity for 101 objects. We also identified a previously unknown candidate tidal disruption event (TDE) in SDSS~J112637.74+513423.0., Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures. Astronomy at the epoch of multimessenger studies.

Abstract

We present the first observation of the $\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \mu^{+} \nu_{\mu}$ decay and present measurements of the branching fraction ratios of the $\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}$ decays compared to the reference mode $\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \pi^+$, ($\ell = e$ or $\mu$). This analysis is based on 89.5 fb$^{-1}$, 711 fb$^{-1}$, and 121.1 fb$^{-1}$ data samples collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider at the center-of-mass energies of 10.52 GeV, 10.58 GeV, and 10.86 GeV, respectively. The $\Omega_{c}^{0}$ signal yields are extracted by fitting $M_{\Omega^{-} \ell^{+}}$ and $M_{\Omega^{-}\pi^+}$ spectra. The branching fraction ratios ${\cal B}(\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} e^{+} \nu_{e})/{\cal B}(\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \pi^+)$ and ${\cal B}(\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \mu^{+} \nu_{\mu})/{\cal B}(\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \pi^+)$ are measured to be $1.98 \pm0.13~({\rm stat.}) \pm 0.08~({\rm syst.})$ and $ 1.94 \pm 0.18~({\rm stat.}) \pm 0.10~({\rm syst.})$, respectively. The ratio of ${\cal B}(\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} e^{+} \nu_{e})/{\cal B}(\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \mu^{+} \nu_{\mu})$ is measured to be $1.02 \pm 0.10~({\rm stat.}) \pm 0.02~({\rm syst.})$, which is consistent with the expectation of lepton flavor universality., Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication as a Letter in Physical Review D

386. An unfitted finite element method using level set functions for extrapolation into deformable diffuse interfaces

Author

Kuzmin, Dmitri and Bäcker, Jan-Phillip

Subjects
Mathematics - Numerical Analysis
Abstract

We explore a new way to handle flux boundary conditions imposed on level sets. The proposed approach is a diffuse interface version of the shifted boundary method (SBM) for continuous Galerkin discretizations of conservation laws in embedded domains. We impose the interface conditions weakly and approximate surface integrals by volume integrals. The discretized weak form of the governing equation has the structure of an immersed boundary finite element method. That is, integration is performed over a fixed fictitious domain. Source terms are included to account for interface conditions and extend the boundary data into the complement of the embedded domain. The calculation of these extra terms requires (i) construction of an approximate delta function and (ii) extrapolation of embedded boundary data into quadrature points. We accomplish these tasks using a level set function, which is given analytically or evolved numerically. A globally defined averaged gradient of this approximate signed distance function is used to construct a simple map to the closest point on the interface. The normal and tangential derivatives of the numerical solution at that point are calculated using the interface conditions and/or interpolation on uniform stencils. Similarly to SBM, extrapolation back to the quadrature points is performed using Taylor expansions. The same strategy is used to construct ghost penalty functions and extension velocities. Computations that require extrapolation are restricted to a narrow band around the interface. Numerical results are presented for elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic test problems, which are specifically designed to assess the error caused by the numerical treatment of interface conditions on fixed and moving boundaries in 2D.

Abstract

We consider the $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{E}_{n,m}^q$, which is a $q$-twist of two Cuntz-Toeplitz algebras. For the case $|q|<1$, we give an explicit formula which untwists the $q$-deformation showing that the isomorphism class of $\mathcal{E}_{n,m}^q$ does not depend on $q$. For the case $|q|=1$, we give an explicit description of all ideals in $\mathcal{E}_{n,m}^q$. In particular, we show that $\mathcal{E}_{n,m}^q$ contains a unique largest ideal $\mathcal{M}_q$. We identify $\mathcal{E}_{n,m}^q / \mathcal{M}_q$ with the Rieffel deformation of $\mathcal{O}_n \otimes \mathcal{O}_m$ and use a K-theoretical argument to show that the isomorphism class does not depend on $q$. The latter result holds true in a more general setting of multiparameter deformations., Comment: Accepted to publication in International Journal of Mathematics. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1812.08530

A search for double-heavy tetraquark state candidates $X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}}$ decaying to $D_{s}^{+}D_{s}^{+}$ and $D_{s}^{*+} D_{s}^{*+}$ is presented for the first time using the data samples of 102 million $\Upsilon(1S)$ and 158 million $\Upsilon(2S)$ events, and the data samples at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.52~GeV, 10.58~GeV, and 10.867~GeV corresponding to integrated luminosities of 89.5~fb$^{-1}$, 711.0~fb$^{-1}$, and 121.4~fb$^{-1}$, respectively, accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The invariant-mass spectra of the $D_{s}^{+}D_{s}^{+}$ and $D_{s}^{*+} D_{s}^{*+}$ are studied to search for possible resonances. No significant signals are observed, and the 90\% confidence level upper limits on the product branching fractions [${\cal B}(\Upsilon(1S,2S) \to X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}} + anything) \times {\cal B}(X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}} \to D_{s}^{+}D_{s}^{+}(D_{s}^{*+} D_{s}^{*+}))$] in $\Upsilon(1S,2S)$ inclusive decays and the product values of Born cross section and branching fraction [$\sigma(e^+e^- \to X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}} + anything ) \times {\cal B}(X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}} \to D_{s}^{+}D_{s}^{+}(D_{s}^{*+} D_{s}^{*+}))$] in $e^+e^-$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.52~GeV, 10.58~GeV, and 10.867~GeV under different assumptions of $X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}}$ masses and widths are obtained., Comment: 12 pages, 7 figures; accepted for publication as a Regular Article in Physical Review D

We report results from a search for the decay $B_s^0\rightarrow\eta\eta$ using 121.4 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at the $\Upsilon(5S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. We do not observe any signal and set an upper limit on the branching fraction of $14.3\times 10^{-5}$ at $90\%$ confidence level. This result represents a significant improvement over the previous most stringent limit., Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures

Abstract

We present the first observation by the Telescope Array Surface Detector (TASD) of the effect of thunderstorms on the development of cosmic ray single count rate intensity over a 700 km$^{2}$ area. Observations of variations in the secondary low-energy cosmic ray counting rate, using the TASD, allow us to study the electric field inside thunderstorms, on a large scale, as it progresses on top of the 700 km$^{2}$ detector, without dealing with the limitation of narrow exposure in time and space using balloons and aircraft detectors. In this work, variations in the cosmic ray intensity (single count rate) using the TASD, were studied and found to be on average at the $\sim(0.5-1)\%$ and up to 2\% level. These observations were found to be both in excess and in deficit. They were also found to be correlated with lightning in addition to thunderstorms. These variations lasted for tens of minutes; their footprint on the ground ranged from 6 to 24 km in diameter and moved in the same direction as the thunderstorm. With the use of simple electric field models inside the cloud and between cloud to ground, the observed variations in the cosmic ray single count rate were recreated using CORSIKA simulations. Depending on the electric field model used and the direction of the electric field in that model, the electric field magnitude that reproduces the observed low-energy cosmic ray single count rate variations was found to be approximately between 0.2-0.4 GV. This in turn allows us to get a reasonable insight on the electric field and its effect on cosmic ray air showers inside thunderstorms.

Abstract

Using the entire data sample of $980\mathrm{~fb}^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we present measurements of the branching fractions of the Cabibbo-favored decays $\Xi_c^0 \to \Lambda K_S^0$, $\Xi_c^0 \to \Sigma^0 K_S^0$, and $\Xi_c^0 \to \Sigma^+ K^-$. Taking the decay $\Xi_c^0 \to \Xi^- \pip$ as the normalization mode, we measure the branching fraction ratio ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Lambda K_S^0)/{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Xi^- \pi^+) = 0.229\pm0.008\pm0.012$ with improved precision, and measure the branching fraction ratios ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Sigma^0 K_S^0)/{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Xi^- \pi^+) = 0.038\pm0.006\pm0.004$ and ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Sigma^+ K^-)/{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Xi^- \pi^+) = 0.123\pm0.007\pm0.010$ for the first time. Taking into account the branching fraction of the normalization mode, the absolute branching fractions are determined to be ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Lambda K_S^0) = (3.27\pm0.11\pm0.17\pm0.73) \times 10^{-3}$, ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Sigma^0 K_S^0) = (0.54\pm 0.09\pm 0.06\pm 0.12) \times 10^{-3}$, and ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0 \to \Sigma^+ K^-) = (1.76\pm 0.10\pm0.14\pm 0.39) \times 10^{-3}$. The first and second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise from the uncertainty of the branching fraction of $\Xi_c^0 \to \Xi^- \pi^+$., Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables; accepted for publication as a Letter in Physical Review D

Abstract

The chemical states of Ni, Zn, and W in microcrystalline NiWO$_4$-ZnWO$_4$ solid solutions were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The recorded spectra of the Ni 2p, Zn 2p, and W 4f photoelectron lines and Ni L$_2$M$_{23}$M$_{45}$, Zn L$_3$M$_{45}$M$_{45}$, and W N$_4$N$_{67}$N$_{7}$ Auger-transition lines show pronounced changes with increasing Zn concentration. The positions of the resolved photoelectron and Auger-transition lines were combined to construct so-called chemical-state plots (Wagner or Auger-parameter plots) for metal ions in solid solutions. With increasing Zn concentration, the Auger parameter increases for Ni and decreases for W, thus evidencing a lowering and an increase of the electronic polarizability around core-ionized Ni and W ions, respectively. At the same time, the character of Zn-O bonds and the local structure around Zn ions do not change. It is concluded that the dilution of NiWO$_4$ with Zn ions is accompanied by an increase of the Ni-O bond ionicity and an increase of the W-O bond covalency. These changes are attributed to the charge redistribution among [NiO$_6$] and [WO$_6$] structural units. We show that a careful in-depth analysis of XPS data obtained with a laboratory-based X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy system can give chemically sensitive, qualitative information on the changes in the first coordination spheres of each metal ion. This information is otherwise accessible only by synchrotron-based techniques (such as X-ray absorption spectroscopy).

Abstract

We present a reconstruction in early data of the semileptonic decay $B^+ \to \pi^0 \ell^+ \nu_\ell$, and first results of a reconstruction of the decays $B^+ \to \rho^0 \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ and $B^0 \to \rho^- \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ in a sample corresponding to 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ of Belle II data using hadronic $B$-tagging via the full-event-interpretation algorithm. We determine the total branching fractions via fits to the distribution of the square of the missing mass, and find $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \to \pi^0 \ell^+ \nu_\ell)$ = (8.29 $\pm$ 1.99(stat) $\pm$ 0.46(syst)) $\times 10^{-5}$. We obtain $95\%$ CL upper limits on the branching fractions with $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to \rho^- \ell^+ \nu_\ell) < 3.37 \times 10^{-4}$ and $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \to \rho^0 \ell^+ \nu_\ell) < 19.7 \times 10^{-5}$. We also obtain an updated branching fraction for the $B^0 \to \pi^- \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ decay, $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to \pi^- \ell^+ \nu_\ell)$ = (1.47 $\pm$ 0.29(stat) $\pm$ 0.05(syst)) $\times 10^{-4}$, based on the sum of the partial branching fractions in three bins of the squared momentum transfer to the leptonic system.

Abstract

We consider flux-corrected finite element discretizations of 3D convection-dominated transport problems and assess the computational efficiency of algorithms based on such approximations. The methods under investigation include flux-corrected transport schemes and monolithic limiters. We discretize in space using a continuous Galerkin method and $\mathbb{P}_1$ or $\mathbb{Q}_1$ finite elements. Time integration is performed using the Crank-Nicolson method or an explicit strong stability preserving Runge-Kutta method. Nonlinear systems are solved using a fixed-point iteration method, which requires solution of large linear systems at each iteration or time step. The great variety of options in the choice of discretization methods and solver components calls for a dedicated comparative study of existing approaches. To perform such a study, we define new 3D test problems for time-dependent and stationary convection-diffusion-reaction equations. The results of our numerical experiments illustrate how the limiting technique, time discretization and solver impact on the overall performance.

Abstract

The Telescope Array Collaboration has observed an excess of events with $E \ge 10^{19.4} ~{\rm eV}$ in the data which is centered at (RA, dec) = ($19^\circ$, $35^\circ$). This is near the center of the Perseus-Pisces supercluster (PPSC). The PPSC is about $70 ~{\rm Mpc}$ distant and is the closest supercluster in the Northern Hemisphere (other than the Virgo supercluster of which we are a part). A Li-Ma oversampling analysis with $20^\circ$-radius circles indicates an excess in the arrival direction of events with a local significance of about 4 standard deviations. The probability of having such excess close to the PPSC by chance is estimated to be 3.5 standard deviations. This result indicates that a cosmic ray source likely exists in that supercluster., Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 1 table

Abstract

We present a measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa unitarity triangle angle $ \phi_{3} $ (also known as~$\gamma$) using a model-independent Dalitz plot analysis of \linebreak $B^+\to D\left(K_{S}^{0}h^{+}h^{-}\right)h^+$, where $D$ is either a $D^0$ or $\bar{D}{}^0$ meson and $h$ is either a $\pi$ or $K$. This is the first measurement that simultaneously uses Belle and Belle~II data, combining samples corresponding to integrated luminosities of \SI{711}{fb^{-1}} and \SI{128}{fb^{-1}}, respectively. All data were accumulated from energy-asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy corresponding to the mass of the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. We measure $\phi_3 = \left(78.4 \pm 11.4 \pm 0.5 \pm 1.0 \right)^{\circ}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic uncertainty and the third is from the uncertainties on external measurements of the $D$-decay strong-phase parameters., Comment: 34 pages, 11 figures

397. Optimal control using flux potentials: A way to construct bound-preserving finite element schemes for conservation laws

Abstract

To ensure preservation of local or global bounds for numerical solutions of conservation laws, we constrain a baseline finite element discretization using optimization-based (OB) flux correction. The main novelty of the proposed methodology lies in the use of flux potentials as control variables and targets of inequality-constrained optimization problems for numerical fluxes. In contrast to optimal control via general source terms, the discrete conservation property of flux-corrected finite element approximations is guaranteed without the need to impose additional equality constraints. Since the number of flux potentials is less than the number of fluxes in the multidimensional case, the potential-based version of optimal flux control involves fewer unknowns than direct calculation of optimal fluxes. We show that the feasible set of a potential-state potential-target (PP) optimization problem is nonempty and choose a primal-dual Newton method for calculating the optimal flux potentials. The results of numerical studies for linear advection and anisotropic diffusion problems in 2D demonstrate the superiority of the new OB-PP algorithms to closed-form flux limiting under worst-case assumptions.

Abstract

This paper reports a study of $B \to K^{*}\gamma$ decays using $62.8\pm 0.6$ fb$^{-1}$ of data collected during 2019--2020 by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB $e^{+}e^{-}$ asymmetric-energy collider, corresponding to $(68.2 \pm 0.8) \times 10^6$ $B\overline{B}$ events. We find $454 \pm 28$, $50 \pm 10$, $169 \pm 18$, and $160 \pm 17$ signal events in the decay modes $B^{0} \to K^{*0}[K^{+}\pi^{-}]\gamma$, $B^{0} \to K^{*0}[K^0_{\rm S}\pi^{0}]\gamma$, $B^{+} \to K^{*+}[K^{+}\pi^{0}]\gamma$, and $B^{+} \to K^{*+}[K^{+}\pi^{0}]\gamma$, respectively. The uncertainties quoted for the signal yield are statistical only. We report the branching fractions of these decays: $$\mathcal{B} [B^{0} \to K^{*0}[K^{+}\pi^{-}]\gamma] = (4.5 \pm 0.3 \pm 0.2) \times 10^{-5}, $$ $$\mathcal{B} [B^{0} \to K^{*0}[K^0_{\rm S}\pi^{0}]\gamma] = (4.4 \pm 0.9 \pm 0.6) \times 10^{-5},$$ $$\mathcal{B} [B^{+} \to K^{*+}[K^{+}\pi^{0}]\gamma] = (5.0 \pm 0.5 \pm 0.4)\times 10^{-5},\text{ and}$$ $$\mathcal{B} [B^{+} \to K^{*+}[K^0_{\rm S}\pi^{+}]\gamma] = (5.4 \pm 0.6 \pm 0.4) \times 10^{-5},$$ where the first uncertainty is statistical, and the second is systematic. The results are consistent with world-average values.

The analysis is based on the entire $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance data sample of 711 $\rm fb^{-1}$, corresponding to $772\times 10^{6} B \bar{B}$ pairs. In our search we fully reconstruct the companion $B$ meson produced in the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow\Upsilon(4S)\rightarrow B\bar{B}$ from its hadronic decay modes, and look for the decay $B^{0}\rightarrow K^{\ast 0}\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ in the rest of the event. No evidence for a signal is found. We report an upper limit on the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}({B^{0}\rightarrow K^{\ast 0}\tau^{+}\tau^{-}})<3.1\times 10^{-3}$ at 90\% confidence level. This is the first direct limit on $\mathcal{B}({B^{0}\rightarrow K^{\ast 0}\tau^{+}\tau^{-}})$., Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, accepted by PRD as a Letter
