The FR-I galaxy 3C 84, that is identified with the misaligned blazar NGC 1275, is well known as one of the very few radio galaxies emitting gamma-rays in the TeV range. Yet, the gamma-ray emission region cannot be pinpointed and the responsible mechanisms are still unclear. We calculate the optical absorption depth of high-energy photons in the broad-line region of 3C 84 depending on their energy and distance to the central black hole. Based on these calculations, a lower limit on the distance of the emission region from the central black hole can be derived. These lower limits are estimated for two broad-line region geometries (shell and ring) and two states of the source, the low state in 2016 October–December and a flare state in 2017 January. For the shell geometry, we can place the emission region outside the Ly α radius. For the ring geometry and the low flux activity, the minimal distance between the black hole, and the gamma-ray emission region is close to the Ly α radius. In the case of the flaring state (ring geometry), the results are not conclusive. Our results exclude the region near the central black hole as the origin of the gamma-rays detected by Fermi–LAT and Major Atmospheric Gamma-Ray Imaging Cherenkov. With these findings, we can constrain the theoretical models of acceleration mechanisms and compare the possible emission region to the source’s morphology resolved by radio images from the Very Long Baseline Array.
Electron–phonon scatterings in solid-state systems are pivotal processes in determining many key physical quantities such as charge carrier mobilities and thermal conductivities. Here, we report direct probing of phonon mode specific electron–phonon scatterings in layered semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides WSe2, MoSe2, WS2, and MoS2 through inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy measurements, quantum transport simulations, and density functional calculation. We experimentally and theoretically characterize momentum-conserving single- and two-phonon electron–phonon scatterings involving up to as many as eight individual phonon modes in mono- and bilayer films, among which transverse, longitudinal acoustic and optical, and flexural optical phonons play significant roles in quantum charge flows. Moreover, the layer-number sensitive higher-order inelastic electron–phonon scatterings, which are confirmed to be generic in all four semiconducting layers, can be attributed to differing electronic structures, symmetry, and quantum interference effects during the scattering processes in the ultrathin semiconducting films.
Gate-tuned anomalous Hall effect driven by Rashba splitting in intermixed LaAlO3/GdTiO3/SrTiO3
(2021)
The Anomalous Hall Effect (AHE) is an important quantity in determining the properties and understanding the behaviour of the two-dimensional electron system forming at the interface of SrTiO3-based oxide heterostructures. The occurrence of AHE is often interpreted as a signature of ferromagnetism, but it is becoming more and more clear that also paramagnets may contribute to AHE. We studied the influence of magnetic ions by measuring intermixed LaAlO3/GdTiO3/SrTiO3 at temperatures below 10 K. We find that, as function of gate voltage, the system undergoes a Lifshitz transition while at the same time an onset of AHE is observed. However, we do not observe clear signs of ferromagnetism. We argue the AHE to be due to the change in Rashba spin-orbit coupling at the Lifshitz transition and conclude that also paramagnetic moments which are easily polarizable at low temperatures and high magnetic fields lead to the presence of AHE, which needs to be taken into account when extracting carrier densities and mobilities.
This paper presents a measurement of forward-forward and forward-central dijet azimuthal angular correlations and conditional yields in proton-proton (pp) and proton-lead (p + Pb) collisions as a probe of the nuclear gluon density in regions where the fraction of the average momentum per nucleon carried by the parton entering the hard scattering is low. In these regions, gluon saturation can modify the rapidly increasing parton distribution function of the gluon. The analysis utilizes 25 pb(-1) of pp data and 360 mu b(-1) of p + Pb data, both at root S-NN = 5.02 TeV, collected in 2015 and 2016, respectively, with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is performed in the center-of-mass frame of the nucleon-nucleon system in the rapidity range between -4.0 and 4.0 using the two highest transverse-momentum jets in each event, with the highest transverse-momentum jet restricted to the forward rapidity range. No significant broadening of azimuthal angular correlations is observed for forward-forward or forward-central dijets in p + Pb compared to pp collisions. For forward-forward jet pairs in the proton-going direction, the ratio of conditional yields in p + Pb collisions to those in pp collisions is suppressed by approximately 20%, with no significant dependence on the transverse momentum of the dijet system. No modification of conditional yields is observed for forward-central dijets.
In this thesis I explore the interplay of geometry and quantum information theory via the holographic principle, with a specific focus on geometric phases in quantum systems like two interacting qubits, and how they relate to entanglement measures and Hilbert space factorisation. I establish geometric phases as an indicator for Hilbert space factorsiation, both in an abstract sense using von Neumann operator algebras as well as applied to the eternal black hole within the AdS/CFT correspondence. For the latter case I show that geometric phases allow to diagnose non-factorisation from a boundary point of view. I also introduce geometric quantum discord as a second geometric measure for non-factorisation and reveals its potential implications for the study of black hole microstates.
This paper presents the electron and photon energy calibration obtained with the ATLAS detector using about 36 fb(-1) of LHC proton-proton collision data recorded at root s = 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. The different calibration steps applied to the data and the optimization of the reconstruction of electron and photon energies are discussed. The absolute energy scale is set using a large sample of Z boson decays into electron-positron pairs. The systematic uncertainty in the energy scale calibration varies between 0.03% to 0.2% in most of the detector acceptance for electrons with transverse momentum close to 45 GeV. For electrons with transverse momentum of 10 GeV the typical uncertainty is 0.3% to 0.8% and it varies between 0.25% and 1% for photons with transverse momentum around 60 GeV. Validations of the energy calibration with J/psi -> e(+)e(-) decays and radiative Z boson decays are also presented.
Quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shifts more and more into the focus of clinical research. Especially determination of relaxation times without/and with contrast agents becomes the foundation of tissue characterization, e.g. in cardiac MRI for myocardial fibrosis. Techniques which assess longitudinal relaxation times rely on repetitive application of readout modules, which are interrupted by free relaxation periods, e.g. the Modified Look-Locker Inversion Recovery = MOLLI sequence. These discontinuous sequences reveal an apparent relaxation time, and, by techniques extrapolated from continuous readout sequences, a putative real T1 is determined. What is missing is a rigorous analysis of the dependence of the apparent relaxation time on its real partner, readout sequence parameters and biological parameters as heart rate. This is provided in this paper for the discontinuous balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) and spoiled gradient echo readouts. It turns out that the apparent longitudinal relaxation rate is the time average of the relaxation rates during the readout module, and free relaxation period. Knowing the heart rate our results vice versa allow to determine the real T1 from its measured apparent partner.
Contrast and non-contrast MRI based characterization of myocardium by T1-mapping will be of paramount importance to obtain biomarkers, e.g. fibrosis, which determines the risk of heart failure patients.
T1-mapping by the standard post-processing of the modified look-locker inversion recovery (MOLLI) lacks of accuracy when trying to reduce its duration, which on the other hand, is highly desirable in patients with heart failure. The recently suggested inversion group fitting (IGF) technique, which considers more parameters for fitting, has a superior accuracy for long T1 times despite a shorter duration. However, for short T1 values, the standard method has a superior precision. A conditional fitting routine is proposed which ideally takes advantage of both algorithms.
Materials and methods
All measurements were performed on a 1.5 T clinical scanner (ACHIEVA, Philips Healthcare, The Netherlands) using a MOLLI 5(n)3(n)3 prototype with n(heart beats) being a variable waiting time between inversion experiments. Phantom experiments covered a broad range of T1 times, waiting times and heart rates. A saturation recovery experiment served as a gold standard for T1 measurement. All data were analyzed with the standard MOLLI, the IGF fit and the conditional fitting routine and the obtained T1 values were compared with the gold standard. In vivo measurements were performed in a healthy volunteer and a total of 34 patients with normal findings, dilative cardiomyopathy and amyloidosis.
Results
Theoretical analysis and phantom experiments provided a threshold value for an apparent IGF
determining processing with IGF post processing for values above, or switching to the standard technique for values below. This was validated in phantoms and patients measurements. A reduction of the waiting time to 1 instead of 3 heart beats between the inversion experiments showed reliable results. The acquisition time was reduced from 17 to 13 heart beats. The in vivo measurements showed ECV values between 25% (18–33%; SD 0.03) in the healthy, 30% (22–40%; SD 0.04) in patients with DCM and 45% (30–60%; SD 0.9) in patients with amyloidosis.
Conclusion
The adopted post-processing algorithm determines long T1 values with high accuracy and short T1 values while maintaining a high precision. Based on reduction of waiting time, and independence of heart rate, it shortens breath hold duration and allows fast T1-mapping, which is frequently a prerequisite in patients with cardiac diseases.
The anomalies in the B-meson sector, in particular R-K(*) and R-D(*), are often interpreted as hints for physics beyond the Standard Model. To this end, leptoquarks or a heavy Z' represent the most popular SM extensions which can explain the observations. However, adding these fields by hand is not very satisfactory as it does not address the big questions like a possible embedding into a unified gauge theory. On the other hand, light leptoquarks within a unified framework are challenging due to additional constraints such as lepton flavor violation. The existing accounts typically deal with this issue by providing estimates on the relevant couplings. In this letter we consider a complete model based on the SU(4)(C) circle times SU(2)(L) circle times U(1) R gauge symmetry, a subgroup of SO(10), featuring both scalar and vector leptoquarks. We demonstrate that this setup has, in principle, all the potential to accommodate R-K(*) and R-D(*) while respecting bounds from other sectors usually checked in this context. However, it turns out that K-L -> e(+/-)mu(-/+) severely constraints not only the vector but also the scalar leptoquarks and, consequently, also the room for any sizeable deviations of R-K(*) from 1. We briefly comment on the options for extending the model in order to conform this constraint. Moreover, we present a simple criterion for all-orders proton stability within this class of models.
Proximitized materials
(2019)
Advances in scaling down heterostructures and having an improved interface quality together with atomically thin two-dimensional materials suggest a novel approach to systematically design materials. A given material can be transformed through proximity effects whereby it acquires properties of its neighbors, for example, becoming superconducting, magnetic, topologically nontrivial, or with an enhanced spin–orbit coupling. Such proximity effects not only complement the conventional methods of designing materials by doping or functionalization but also can overcome their various limitations. In proximitized materials, it is possible to realize properties that are not present in any constituent region of the considered heterostructure. While the focus is on magnetic and spin–orbit proximity effects with their applications in spintronics, the outlined principles also provide a broader framework for employing other proximity effects to tailor materials and realize novel phenomena.
