Standard and Z2-Regge theory in two dimensions

1998

Abstract We qualitatively compare two versions of quantum Regge calculus by means of Monte Carlo simulations. In Standard Regge Calculus the quadratic link lengths of the triangulation vary continuously, whereas in the Z2-Regge Model they are restricted to two possible values. The goal is to determine whether the computationally more easily accessible Z2 model retains the characteristics of standard Regge theory.

Monotonic solution of heterogeneous anisotropic diffusion problems

2013

Anisotropic problems arise in various areas of science and engineering, for example groundwater transport and petroleum reservoir simulations. The pure diffusive anisotropic time-dependent transport problem is solved on a finite number of nodes, that are selected inside and on the boundary of the given domain, along with possible internal boundaries connecting some of the nodes. An unstructured triangular mesh, that attains the Generalized Anisotropic Delaunay condition for all the triangle sides, is automatically generated by properly connecting all the nodes, starting from an arbitrary initial one. The control volume of each node is the closed polygon given by the union of the midpoint of…

Place du psychologue en réanimation

2021

Dans les services de soins aigus, comme en réanimation, où l’intégrité physique et psychique des patients est atteinte, le somatique prime mais il est inéluctablement imprégné de la dimension émotionnelle. Les études actuelles témoignent d’ailleurs d’un vécu émotionnel intense et souvent bouleversant, tant pour les patients et leurs proches, que pour les soignants. Le psychologue prend donc place dans cette triangulation patient-famille-soignant afin de préserver la place de la dimension émotionnelle au sein des services de réanimation, et de proposer un accompagnement psychologique adapté. A partir d’un cas clinique, cet article a pour objectif de clarifier, pour les soignants de réanimati…

Symbolic leadership culture and its subcultures in one unified comprehensive school in Finland

2014

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe a symbolic-interpretative research on the leadership culture and its subcultures in one unified comprehensive school in Finland. Design/methodology/approach – The research is a phenomenological, qualitative case study. Its methodology is based on triangulation. Findings – The leadership culture of the unified comprehensive school studied in the present research seemed to be based on equality, communality, appreciation, flow of information and humor. Besides examining the general leadership culture of the school, an attempt was made to study the possible subcultures of the school by examining the six subject groups into which the teachers w…

Anisotropic potential of velocity fields in real fluids: Application to the MAST solution of shallow water equations

2013

In the present paper it is first shown that, due to their structure, the general governing equations of uncompressible real fluids can be regarded as an "anisotropic" potential flow problem and closed streamlines cannot occur at any time. For a discretized velocity field, a fast iterative procedure is proposed to order the computational elements at the beginning of each time level, allowing a sequential solution element by element of the advection problem. Some closed circuits could appear due to the discretization error and the elements involved in these circuits could not be ordered. We prove in the paper that the total flux of these not ordered elements goes to zero by refining the compu…

GrailQuest and HERMES: hunting for gravitational wave electromagnetic counterparts and probing space-time quantum foam

2021

GrailQuest (Gamma-ray Astronomy International Laboratory for Quantum Exploration of Space-Time) is an ambitious astrophysical mission concept that uses a fleet of small satellites whose main objective is to search for a dispersion law for light propagation in vacuo. Within Quantum Gravity theories, different models for space-time quantization predict relative discrepancies of the speed of photons w.r.t. the speed of light that depend on the ratio of the photon energy to the Planck energy. This ratio is as small as 10-23 for photons in the γ- ray band (100 keV). Therefore, to detect this effect, light must propagate over enormous distances and the experiment must have extraordinary sensitivi…

Ising Spins on 3D Random Lattices

1999

We perform single-cluster Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model on three-dimensional Poissonian random lattices of Voronoi/Delaunay type with up to 128 000 sites. For each lattice size quenched averages are computed over 96 realizations. From a finite-size scaling analysis we obtain strong evidence that the critical exponents coincide with those on regular cubic lattices.

Ising model universality for two-dimensional lattices

1993

We use the single-cluster Monte Carlo update algorithm to simulate the Ising model on two-dimensional Poissonian random lattices of Delaunay type with up to 80\,000 sites. By applying reweighting techniques and finite-size scaling analyses to time-series data near criticality, we obtain unambiguous support that the critical exponents for the random lattice agree with the exactly known exponents for regular lattices, i.e., that (lattice) universality holds for the two-dimensional Ising model.

Fixed versus random triangulations in 2D Regge calculus

1997

Abstract We study 2D quantum gravity on spherical topologies using the Regge calculus approach with the dl l measure. Instead of a fixed non-regular triangulation which has been used before, we study for each system size four different random triangulations, which are obtained according to the standard Voronoi-Delaunay procedure. We compare both approaches quantitatively and show that the difference in the expectation value of R2 between the fixed and the random triangulation depends on the lattice size and the surface area A. We also try again to measure the string susceptibility exponents through a finite-size scaling Ansatz in the expectation value of an added R2 interaction term in an a…

Triangle singularity enhancing isospin violation in ${\bar{{\rm{B}}}}_{{\rm{s}}}^{0}\to {\rm{J}}/{\rm{\psi }}{\pi }^{0}{{\rm{f}}}_{0}(980)$

2018

We perform calculations for the and reactions, showing that the first is isospin-suppressed while the second is isospin-allowed. The reaction proceeds via a triangle mechanism, with , followed by the decay K* → Kπ and a further fusion of into the or a0(980). We show that the mechanism develops a singularity around the π0 f0(980) or π0 a0(980) invariant mass of 1420 MeV, where the π0 f0 and π0 a0 decay modes are magnified and also the ratio of π0 f0 to π0 a0 production. Using experimental information for the decay, we are able to obtain absolute values for the reactions studied which fall into the experimentally accessible range. The reactions proposed and the observables evaluated, when con…
