Meter-baseline tests of sterile neutrinos at Daya Bay
Abstract We explore the sensitivity of an experiment at the Daya Bay site, with a point radioactive source and a few meter baseline, to neutrino oscillations involving one or more eV mass sterile neutrinos. We find that within a year, the entire ...

How long does it take for aquifer recharge or aquifer discharge processes to reach steady state?
Summary Groundwater flow models are usually characterized as being either transient flow models or steady state flow models. Given that steady state groundwater flow conditions arise as a long time asymptotic limit of a particular transient...

Lepton number violation at the LHC with leptoquark and diquark
Abstract We investigate a model in which tiny neutrino masses are generated at the two-loop level by using scalar leptoquark and diquark multiplets. The diquark can be singly produced at the LHC, and it can decay into a pair of leptoquarks through...

Adhesion of a vesicle on an elastic substrate: 2D analysis
Abstract Cell or vesicle adhesion plays an essential role in a plethora of physiological activities. In this study, we established a theoretical model to explore the adhesion behavior of a vesicle adhering on an elastic substrate. Based upon the...

Calibration and monitoring systems of the ATLAS tile hadron calorimeter
Abstract The TileCal is the hadronic calorimeter covering the most central region of the ATLAS experiment at LHC. It is a sampling calorimeter with iron plates as absorber and plastic scintillating tiles as the active material. The scintillation...

Consistent spectral predictors for dynamic causal models of steady-state responses
Abstract Dynamic causal modelling (DCM) for steady-state responses (SSR) is a framework for inferring the mechanisms that underlie observed electrophysiological spectra, using biologically plausible generative models of neuronal dynamics. In this...

Schemes for radiative polarization of ion beams in storage rings
Abstract It is argued that in storage rings hydrogen-like ions can be polarized due to their large magnetic moment and the existence of hyperfine ground-state levels. While spontaneous spin-flip transitions between the Zeeman sublevels in magnetic...

Frustration and order driven by Hund’s rule coupling in antiferrromagnets
Abstract We discuss a simplified version of a recently proposed Hamiltonian to describe the case when the super-exchange interaction between different atomic orbitals leads to frustration because of Hund’s rule coupling. Using spin-wave theory, we...

Uniaxially anisotropic antiferromagnets in a field along the easy axis
Abstract Uniaxially anisotropic antiferromagnets in a field along the easy axis are studied with the help of ground state considerations and Monte Carlo simulations. For classical models, the XXZ model as well as variants, we analyze the role of...

Ferromagnetic hysteresis modeling for sensor and actuator applications
Abstract This paper presents a hysteresis model for electromagnetic sensors and actuators, which are composed of ferromagnetic materials. The model is based on the Preisach operator, which is capable to fully describe major as well as minor...
