Beam matching with space charge in energy recovery linacs
2019
Abstract Matching with space charge of an Energy-Recovery Linac (ERL) arc into the subsequent RF structure is essential to preserve beam quality. We show how to match beam envelopes and dispersion along the bends and recirculation arcs of an ERL, including space charge forces, in order to adjust the beam to the parameters of the subsequent RF structure. For a qualitative analysis, we show that one can use a beam matrix approach together with the smooth focusing approximation but with longitudinal–transverse coupling. It is also shown that the space-charge-modified dispersion plays a key role for the adjustment of the momentum compaction R 56 required for both the isochronous and the non-iso…
gg→HH : Combined uncertainties
2021
In this paper we discuss the combination of the usual renormalization and factorization scale uncertainties of Higgs-pair production via gluon fusion with the novel uncertainties originating from the scheme and scale choice of the virtual top mass. Moreover, we address the uncertainties related to the top-mass definition for different values of the trilinear Higgs coupling and their combination with the other uncertainties.
Coupling of lattice-Boltzmann solvers with suspended particles using the MPI intercommunication framework
2017
Abstract The MPI intercommunication framework was used for coupling of two lattice-Boltzmann solvers with suspended particles, which model advection and diffusion respectively of these particles in a carrier fluid. Simulation domain was divided into two parts, one with advection and diffusion, and the other with diffusion only (no macroscopic flow). Particles were exchanged between these domains at their common boundary by a direct process to process communication. By analysing weak and strong scaling, it was shown that the linear scaling characteristics of the lattice-Boltzmann solvers were not compromised by their coupling.
Nonlinear pulse deceleration using photorefractive four-wave mixing
2009
We investigate the possibilities of the backward four-wave coupling based on the nonlocal photorefractive response for the nonlinear deceleration of light pulses. The presence of an additional external variable parameter—the pump intensity ratio—allows to improve the output characteristics of the decelerated pulses compared to those typical of the two-wave coupling. In particular, large delay times of the output pulses can be achieved without their strong amplification. This positive distinctive feature of the pulse deceleration occurs far from threshold of the mirrorless optical oscillation.
Conditions for waveguide decoupling in square-lattice photonic crystals
2004
We study coupling and decoupling of parallel waveguides in two-dimensional square-lattice photonic crystals. We show that the waveguide coupling is prohibited at some wavelengths when there is an odd number of rows between the waveguides. In contrast, decoupling does not take place when there is even number of rows between the waveguides. Decoupling can be used to avoid cross talk between adjacent waveguides.
Las reivindicaciones del profesorado de Educación Artística ante los nuevos obstáculos curriculares; el proyecto “Second Round: Art i Lluita a Secund…
2016
Resumen : En este articulo se estudia la situacion precaria en la que se encuentra la Educacion Artistica en los niveles no universitarios dentro el ambito espanol, realidad que contrasta con el auge que esta tomando nuestra especialidad en el conjunto de paises de Latinoamerica. La Ley Organica 8/2013, de 9 de diciembre, para la mejora de la calidad educativa (LOMCE) nos relega a la mera optatividaden educacion secundaria, teniendo en cuenta que en primaria nunca existio la figura del maestro especialista en artes visuales. Frente a ello, iniciativas recientes vienen a reivindicar la importancia la Educacion Artistica en la etapa de secundaria. Sirva como ejemplo el proyecto “Second Round:…
The impact of feature extraction on the performance of a classifier : kNN, Naïve Bayes and C4.5
2005
"The curse of dimensionality" is pertinent to many learning algorithms, and it denotes the drastic raise of computational complexity and the classification error in high dimensions. In this paper, different feature extraction techniques as means of (1) dimensionality reduction, and (2) constructive induction are analyzed with respect to the performance of a classifier. Three commonly used classifiers are taken for the analysis: kNN, Naïve Bayes and C4.5 decision tree. One of the main goals of this paper is to show the importance of the use of class information in feature extraction for classification and (in)appropriateness of random projection or conventional PCA to feature extraction for …
Numerical Study of the semiclassical limit of the Davey-Stewartson II equations
2014
We present the first detailed numerical study of the semiclassical limit of the Davey–Stewartson II equations both for the focusing and the defocusing variant. We concentrate on rapidly decreasing initial data with a single hump. The formal limit of these equations for vanishing semiclassical parameter , the semiclassical equations, is numerically integrated up to the formation of a shock. The use of parallelized algorithms allows one to determine the critical time tc and the critical solution for these 2 + 1-dimensional shocks. It is shown that the solutions generically break in isolated points similarly to the case of the 1 + 1-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation, i.e., cubic…
Predicting Cryptocurrency Defaults
2019
We examine all available 146 Proof-of-Work based cryptocurrencies that started trading prior to the end of 2014 and track their performance until December 2018. We find that about 60% of those cryptocurrencies were eventually in default. The substantial sums of money involved mean those bankruptcies will have an enormous societal impact. Employing cryptocurrency-specific data, we estimate a model based on linear discriminant analysis to predict such defaults. Our model is capable of explaining 87% of cryptocurrency bankruptcies after only one month of trading and could serve as a screening tool for investors keen to boost overall portfolio performance and avoid investing in unreliable crypt…
Ab initio calculations of SrTiO3, BaTiO3, PbTiO3, CaTiO3, SrZrO3, PbZrO3 and BaZrO3 (001), (011) and (111) surfaces as well as F centers, polarons, K…
2014
In this paper, the review of recent results of calculations of surface relaxations, energetics, and bonding properties for ABO 3 perovskite (001), (011) and (111) surfaces using mostly a hybrid description of exchange and correlation is presented. Both AO and BO 2-terminations of the nonpolar (001) surface and A , BO , and O terminations of the polar (011) surface, as well as B and AO 3-terminations of the polar (111) surface were considered. On the AO -terminated (001) surface, all upper-layer A atoms relax inwards, while all second layer atoms relax outwards. For the BO 2-terminated (001) surface, in most cases, the largest relaxations are on the second-layer metal atoms. For almost all …
