Tridimensional invariant correlation based on phase-coded and sine-coded range images
1998
New methods for recognition of range images based on correlation are presented. The techniques allow the detection of a range image of a tridimensional pattern whatever its position along the x, y and z axes. The first method uses the phase-coding of the range image in order to obtain invariance along the z-axis in the correlation process. The second method uses the sine-coding of the range image in order to obtain better discrimination than that obtained with phase-coding. The third method is a hybrid one that makes use of sine-coding for the input scene and phase-coding for the reference image, so both the full translation invariance and high discrimination abilities are obtained.

FINITE-RANGE SEPARABLE PAIRING INTERACTION WITHIN NEW N[sup 3]LO DFT APPROACH
2011
For over four decades, the Skyrme functional within various parametrizations has been used to calculate nuclear properties. In the last few years there was a number of attempts to improve its performance and introduce generalized forms. In particular, the most general phenomenologi‐cal quasi‐local energy density functional, which contains all combinations of density, spin‐density, and their derivatives up to the sixth order (N3LO), was proposed in reference [1]. Since in the phe‐nomenological functional approaches the particle‐particle (pp) interaction channel is treated independently from the particle‐hole (ph) channel, there remains a question of what pairing interaction is suitable to us…
Type D vacuum solutions: a new intrinsic approach
2013
We present a new approach to the intrinsic properties of the type D vacuum solutions based on the invariant symmetries that these spacetimes admit. By using tensorial formalism and without explicitly integrating the field equations, we offer a new proof that the upper bound of covariant derivatives of the Riemann tensor required for a Cartan-Karlhede classification is two. Moreover we show that, except for the Ehlers-Kundt's C-metrics, the Riemann derivatives depend on the first order ones, and for the C-metrics they depend on the first order derivatives and on a second order constant invariant. In our analysis the existence of an invariant complex Killing vector plays a central role. It al…
Measurements of branching fractions, rate asymmetries, and angular distributions in the rare decays B→K + - and B→K* + -
2006
We present measurements of the flavor-changing neutral current decays B -> K center dot(+)center dot(-) and B -> K-*center dot(+)center dot(-), where center dot(+)center dot(-) is either an e(+)e(-) or mu(+)mu(-) pair. The data sample comprises 229x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-> B (B) over bar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e(+)e(-) storage ring. Flavor-changing neutral current decays are highly suppressed in the standard model and their predicted properties could be significantly modified by new physics at the electroweak scale. We measure the branching fractions B(B -> K center dot(+)center dot(-))=(0.34 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.02)x10(-6), B(B -> K-*center dot(+)center dot(-))=(0.78(-…
A missing link: What is behind de Broglie's "Periodic phenomenon"?
1996
The present work constitutes an attempt to give the interpretation of de Broglie's internal periodic phenomenon which ascribes the frequencym0c2/h to each single entity in its eigensystem of coordinates. This phenomenon provides existence in principle of the ideal proper-time scale, making it possible to identify the geometric proper-time interval with a physically existing one, thus ensuring the realization of basic postulates of the relativity theory. According to the latter, neither time nor de Broglie's frequency are invariant with respect to the Lorentz transformation of the coordinate system. A search for the fundamental invariant demands passing over to dimensionless quantities, and …
Triangle singularity in the B−→K−π0X(3872) reaction and sensitivity to the X(3872) mass
2020
We have done a study of the ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}X(3872)$ reaction by means of a triangle mechanism via the chain of reactions: ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{D}^{*0}{\overline{D}}^{*0}$; ${D}^{*0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}{D}^{0}$; ${D}^{0}{\overline{D}}^{*0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}X(3872)$. We show that this mechanism generates a triangle singularity in the ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}X(3872)$ invariant mass for a very narrow window of the $X(3872)$ mass, around the present measured values, and show that the peak positions and the shape of the mass distributions are sensitiv…
Invariant density and time asymptotics for collisionless kinetic equations with partly diffuse boundary operators
2018
This paper deals with collisionless transport equationsin bounded open domains $\Omega \subset \R^{d}$ $(d\geq 2)$ with $\mathcal{C}^{1}$ boundary $\partial \Omega $, orthogonallyinvariant velocity measure $\bm{m}(\d v)$ with support $V\subset \R^{d}$ and stochastic partly diffuse boundary operators $\mathsf{H}$ relating the outgoing andincoming fluxes. Under very general conditions, such equations are governedby stochastic $C_{0}$-semigroups $\left( U_{\mathsf{H}}(t)\right) _{t\geq 0}$ on $%L^{1}(\Omega \times V,\d x \otimes \bm{m}(\d v)).$ We give a general criterion of irreducibility of $%\left( U_{\mathsf{H}}(t)\right) _{t\geq 0}$ and we show that, under very natural assumptions, if an …
Driving topological phases by spatially inhomogeneous pairing centers
2017
We investigate the effect of periodic and disordered distributions of pairing centers in a one-dimensional itinerant system to obtain the microscopic conditions required to achieve an end Majorana mode and the topological phase diagram. Remarkably, the topological invariant can be generally expressed in terms of the physical parameters for any pairing center configuration. Such a fundamental relation allows us to unveil hidden local symmetries and to identify trajectories in the parameter space that preserve the non-trivial topological character of the ground state. We identify the phase diagram with topologically non-trivial domains where Majorana modes are completely unaffected by the spa…
Topological Hamiltonian as an exact tool for topological invariants
2012
We propose the concept of `topological Hamiltonian' for topological insulators and superconductors in interacting systems. The eigenvalues of topological Hamiltonian are significantly different from the physical energy spectra, but we show that topological Hamiltonian contains the information of gapless surface states, therefore it is an exact tool for topological invariants.
Λ(1405) resonance as a superposition of two states
2008
Chiral unitarity models have shown the existence of two states with the same quantum numbers in the vicinity of the Λ(1405), both contributing to the final experimental invariant mass distribution. The K − p → π 0 π 0 Σ 0 reaction, discussed in detail in this work, gives maximal possible weight to the second Λ(1405) state, which is narrower and of higher energy than the nominal Λ(1405). The calculated distribution of π 0 Σ 0 states forming the Λ(1405) is in agreement with a recent experimental data, and shows a peak at 1420 MeV and a relatively narrow width of Γ = 38 MeV. In contrast, the π − p → K 0 πΣ reaction gives more weight to the pole at lower energy and with a larger width. The data…
