A generalization of the Hawking black hole area theorem

Hawking's black hole area theorem was proven using the null energy condition (NEC), a pointwise condition violated by quantum fields. The violation of the NEC is usually cited as the reason that black hole evaporation is allowed in the context of semiclass ...

Estimating the non-dimensional energy of vortex rings by modelling their roll-up

Karen Ann J Mulleners

The non-dimensional energy of starting vortex rings typically converges to values around 0.33 when they are created by a piston-cylinder or a bluff body translating at a constant speed. To explore the limits of the universality of this value and to analyse ...

Interpreting null models of resting-state functional MRI dynamics: not throwing the model out with the hypothesis

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Raphaël Pierre Liégeois

Null models are useful for assessing whether a dataset exhibits a non-trivial property of interest. These models have recently gained interest in the neuroimaging community as means to explore dynamic properties of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fM ...

Turbulence and flows in the plasma boundary of snowflake magnetic configurations

Paolo Ricci, Louis Nicolas Stenger, Maurizio Giacomin

The power exhaust through the scrape-off layer (SOL) in fusion reactors is expected to be significantly higher than in ITER, thus questioning the extrapolation of the ITER exhaust solution to these devices. The snowflake (SF) magnetic configuration is one ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : A model order reduction framework for parametrized nonlinear PDE constrained optimization

Federico Negri

In this paper, we propose a model order reduction framework for parametrized quadratic optimization problems constrained by nonlinear stationary PDEs. Once the solutions of the optimization problem are characterized as the solutions of the corresponding op ...

Spinning AdS propagators

We develop the embedding formalism to describe symmetric traceless tensors in Anti-de Sitter space. We use this formalism to construct the bulk-to-bulk propagator of massive spin J fields and check that it has the expected short distance and massless limit ...

Transport studies in the snowflake divertor in TCV

Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Holger Reimerdes, Benoît Labit, Wouter Vijvers, Francesco Piras

The transport of heat and particles in a tokamak plasma with a snowflake divertor has been studied in recent TCV experiments. Estimates of the power flux onto the divertor plates are obtained from measurements with multiple infrared cameras and Langmuir pr ...

"Snowflake" H Mode in a Tokamak Plasma

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Jean-Marc Moret, Benoît Labit, Francesco Piras, János Márki, Andreas Pitzschke

An edge-localized mode (ELM) H-mode regime, supported by electron cyclotron heating, has been successfully established in a snowflake (second-order null) divertor configuration for the first time in the TCV tokamak. This regime exhibits 2 to 3 times lowe ...

Discontinuous Galerkin method for computing gravitational waveforms from extreme mass ratio binaries

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

Gravitational wave emission from extreme mass ratio binaries (EMRBs) should be detectable by the joint NASA-ESA LISA project, spurring interest in analytical and numerical methods for investigating EMRBs. We describe a discontinuous Galerkin (dG) method fo ...

High frequency electron spin resonance study of peapods

László Forró, Luka Ciric, Bálint Náfrádi

We present high frequency Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) results on a peapod sample. In a previous low frequency ESR study on peapods and double-walled nanotubes the observation of a non-Lorentzian line shape was reported. This effect was tentatively attrib ...
