Quantum Foam, Gravitational Thermodynamics, and the Dark Sector
Y. Jack Ng
We use two simple independent gedankan experiments to show that the holographic principle can be understood intuitively as having its origin in the quantum fluctuations of spacetim…
Testing Predictions of the Quantum Landscape Multiverse 2: The Exponential Inflationary Potential
Eleonora Di Valentino, Laura Mersini-Houghton
The 2015 Planck data release tightened the region of the allowed inflationary models. Inflationary models with convex potentials have now been ruled out since they produce a large…
A deep test of radial differential rotation in a helium-atmosphere white dwarf: I. Discovery of pulsations in PG 0112+104
J. J. Hermes, Steven D. Kawaler, A. Bischoff-Kim +3
We present the detection of non-radial oscillations in a hot, helium-atmosphere white dwarf using 78.7 d of nearly uninterrupted photometry from the Kepler space telescope. With an…
Predictions of the Quantum Landscape Multiverse
Laura Mersini-Houghton
The 2015 Planck data release has placed tight constraints on the class of in ationary models allowed. The current best fit region favors concave downwards in ationary potentials, s…
Pruning The ELM Survey: Characterizing Candidate Low-Mass White Dwarfs Through Photometric Variability
Keaton J. Bell, A. Gianninas, J. J. Hermes +7
We assess the photometric variability of nine stars with spectroscopic Teff and log(g) values from the ELM Survey that locate them near the empirical extremely low-mass (ELM) white…
Characterizing the Population of Bright Infrared Sources in the Small Magellanic Cloud
K. E. Kraemer, G. C. Sloan, P. R. Wood +2
We used Spitzer's Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) to observe stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) selected from the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) Point Source Catalog. We conce…
Scalable smoothing strategies for a geometric multigrid method for the immersed boundary equations
Amneet Pal Singh Bhalla, Matthew G. Knepley, Mark F. Adams +2
The immersed boundary (IB) method is a widely used approach to simulating fluid-structure interaction (FSI). Although explicit versions of the IB method can suffer from severe time…
Towards Understanding The B[e] Phenomenon: VI. Nature and Spectral Variations of HD 85567
S. A. Khokhlov, A. S. Miroshnichenko, R. Mennickent +7
We report the results of high-resolution () spectroscopic observations of the emission-line object HD 85567, which has been classified as a FS CMa type object or a p…
A Joint Speaker-Listener-Reinforcer Model for Referring Expressions
Licheng Yu, Hao Tan, Mohit Bansal +1
Referring expressions are natural language constructions used to identify particular objects within a scene. In this paper, we propose a unified framework for the tasks of referrin…
Baxter Q-operator from quantum K-theory
Petr P. Pushkar, Andrey Smirnov, Anton M. Zeitlin
We define and study the quantum equivariant -theory of cotangent bundles over Grassmannians. For every tautological bundle in the -theory we define its one-parametric deforma…
Hybrid finite difference/finite element immersed boundary method
Boyce E. Griffith, Xiaoyu Luo
The immersed boundary method is an approach to fluid-structure interaction that uses a Lagrangian description of the structural deformations, stresses, and forces along with an Eul…
New limits on Bosonic Dark Matter, Solar Axions, Pauli Exclusion Principle Violation, and Electron Decay from the Majorana Demonstrator
N. Abgrall, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +64
We present new limits on exotic keV-scale physics based on 478 kg d of MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR commissioning data. Constraints at the 90% confidence level are derived on bosonic dark…
Kassiopeia: A Modern, Extensible C++ Particle Tracking Package
Daniel Furse, Stefan Groh, Nikolaus Trost +23
The Kassiopeia particle tracking framework is an object-oriented software package using modern C++ techniques, written originally to meet the needs of the KATRIN collaboration. Kas…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Revisiting Galaxy Classification Through High-Order Stellar Kinematics
Jesse van de Sande, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Lisa M. R. Fogarty +36
Recent cosmological hydrodynamical simulations suggest that integral field spectroscopy can connect the high-order stellar kinematic moments h3 (~skewness) and h4 (~kurtosis) in ga…
End-to-End Subtitle Detection and Recognition for Videos in East Asian Languages via CNN Ensemble with Near-Human-Level Performance
Yan Xu, Siyuan Shan, Ziming Qiu +5
In this paper, we propose an innovative end-to-end subtitle detection and recognition system for videos in East Asian languages. Our end-to-end system consists of multiple stages.…
Probabilistic Fluorescence-Based Synapse Detection
Anish K. Simhal, Cecilia Aguerrebere, Forrest Collman +5
Brain function results from communication between neurons connected by complex synaptic networks. Synapses are themselves highly complex and diverse signaling machines, containing…
Analysis and approximation of a fractional Laplacian-based closure model for turbulent flows and its connection to Richardson pair dispersion
Max Gunzburger, Nan Jiang, Feifei Xu
We study a turbulence closure model in which the fractional Laplacian of the velocity field represents the turbulence diffusivity. We investigate the energy spectrum of th…
DUSTiNGS III: Distribution of Intermediate-Age and Old Stellar Populations in Disks and Outer Extremities of Dwarf Galaxies
Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Martha L. Boyer, Mallory B. Mitchell +8
We have traced the spatial distributions of intermediate-age and old stars in nine dwarf galaxies in the distant parts of the Local Group, using multi-epoch 3.6 and 4.5 micron data…
Effects of additive noise on the stability of glacial cycles
Takahito Mitsui, Michel Crucifix
It is well acknowledged that the sequence of glacial-interglacial cycles is paced by the astronomical forcing. However, how much is the sequence robust against natural fluctuations…
The impact of magnetic fields on the chemical evolution of the supernova-driven ISM
Anabele-Linda Pardi, Philipp Girichidis, Thorsten Naab +7
We present three-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamical simulations of the self-gravitating interstellar medium (ISM) in a periodic (256 pc) box with a mean number density of 0.5 c…
