DK and ππ Scattering from Lattice QCD
Lüscher's formalism and its generalisations enables the access of scattering properties of particles by perfoming numerical computations on the lattice.
The formalism is applied to ππ, Kπ, DK and DK* elastic scattering with angular momentum-parity combinations of 0⁺, 1⁺, 1⁻ and 1⁻, respectively.
Masses and couplings of the resonances and bound states which couple to these channels are determined.
The weak decay constants of the scalar and axialvector charmed-strange bound states are also computed.
The simulation stands out for the close-to-physical pion mass and the high-statistics employed
A Learned Born Series for Highly-Scattering Media
A new method for solving the wave equation is presented, called the learned
Born series (LBS), which is derived from a convergent Born Series but its
components are found through training. The LBS is shown to be significantly
more accurate than the convergent Born series for the same number of
iterations, in the presence of high contrast scatterers, while maintaining a
comparable computational complexity. The LBS is able to generate a reasonable
prediction of the global pressure field with a small number of iterations, and
the errors decrease with the number of learned iterations.Comment: 6 pages, 1 figur
Cloudlet Capture Model for the Accretion Streamer onto the disk of DG Tau
DG Tau is a nearby T Tauri star associated with a collimated jet, a
circumstellar disk and a streamer a few hundred au long. The streamer connects
to the disk at 50 au from DG Tau. At this location SO emission is
observed, likely due to the release of sulphur from dust grains caused by the
shock of the impact of the accretion streamer onto the disk. We investigate the
possibility that the DG Tau streamer was produced via cloudlet capture on the
basis of hydrodynamic simulations, considering a cloudlet initiating infall at
600 au from DG Tau with low angular momentum so that the centrifugal force is
smaller than the gravitational force, even at 50 au. The elongation of the
cloudlet into a streamer is caused by the tidal force when its initial velocity
is much less than the free-fall velocity. The elongated cloudlet reaches the
disk and forms a high density gas clump. Our hydrodynamic model reproduces the
morphology and line-of-sight velocity of CS () emission from the Northern
streamer observed with ALMA. We discuss the conditions for forming a streamer
based on the simulations. We also show that the streamer should perturb the
disk after impact for several thousands of years.Comment: 12 page, 11 figure
A Helmholtz equation solver using unsupervised learning: Application to transcranial ultrasound
Transcranial ultrasound therapy is increasingly used for the non-invasive
treatment of brain disorders. However, conventional numerical wave solvers are
currently too computationally expensive to be used online during treatments to
predict the acoustic field passing through the skull (e.g., to account for
subject-specific dose and targeting variations). As a step towards real-time
predictions, in the current work, a fast iterative solver for the heterogeneous
Helmholtz equation in 2D is developed using a fully-learned optimizer. The
lightweight network architecture is based on a modified UNet that includes a
learned hidden state. The network is trained using a physics-based loss
function and a set of idealized sound speed distributions with fully
unsupervised training (no knowledge of the true solution is required). The
learned optimizer shows excellent performance on the test set, and is capable
of generalization well outside the training examples, including to much larger
computational domains, and more complex source and sound speed distributions,
for example, those derived from x-ray computed tomography images of the skull.Comment: 23 pages, 13 figure
On Cox rings of K3-surfaces
We study Cox rings of K3-surfaces. A first result is that a K3-surface has a
finitely generated Cox ring if and only if its effective cone is polyhedral.
Moreover, we investigate degrees of generators and relations for Cox rings of
K3-surfaces of Picard number two, and explicitly compute the Cox rings of
generic K3-surfaces with a non-symplectic involution that have Picard number 2
to 5 or occur as double covers of del Pezzo surfaces.Comment: minor corrections, to appear in Compositio Mathematica, 32 page
