Superconductivity and Rattling under High Pressure in the beta-Pyrochlore Oxide RbOs2O6
Rattling-induced superconductivity in the beta-pyrochlore oxide RbOs2O6 is
investigated under high pressures up to 6 GPa. Resistivity measurements in a
high-quality single crystal show that the superconducting transition
temperature Tc increases gradually from 6.3 K at ambient pressure to 8.8 K at
3.5 GPa, surprisingly remains almost constant at 8.8 \pm 0.1 K in a wide
pressure range between 3.5 (Po) and 4.8 GPa, and suddenly drops to 6.3 K at Ps
= 4.9 GPa, followed by a gradual decrease with further pressure increase. Two
anomalies in the temperature dependence of the normal-state resistivity are
observed at Po Ps, revealing the presence of two high-pressure
phases corresponding to the changes in Tc. The rattling of the Rb ion inside a
cage made of Os and O atoms may be slightly and seriously modified in these
high-pressure phases that probably have cages of reduced symmetry,
respectively, so that electron-rattler interactions that govern the
superconducting and transport properties of beta-RbOs2O6 are significantly
affected.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1009.035
Near Horizon of 5D Rotating Black Holes from 2D Perspective
We study the CFT dual to five dimensional extremal rotating black holes, by
investigating the two dimensional perspective of their near horizon geometry.
From two dimensional point of view, we show that both gauge fields, related to
the two rotations, appear in the same manner in the asymptotic symmetry and in
the associated central charge. We find that, our results are in perfect
agreement with the generalization of Kerr/CFT approach to five dimensional
extremal rotating black holes.Comment: The last version to appear in the European Physical Journal
Epidemiological associations between brachycephaly and upper respiratory tract disorders in dogs attending veterinary practices in England
Background: Brachycephalic dog breeds are increasingly common. Canine brachycephaly has been associated with upper respiratory tract (URT) disorders but reliable prevalence data remain lacking. Using primary-care veterinary clinical data, this study aimed to report the prevalence and breed-type risk factors for URT disorders in dogs. Results: The sampling frame included 170,812 dogs attending 96 primary-care veterinary clinics participating within the VetCompass Programme. Two hundred dogs were randomly selected from each of three extreme brachycephalic breed types (Bulldog, French Bulldog and Pug) and three common small-to medium sized breed types (moderate brachycephalic: Yorkshire Terrier and non-brachycephalic: Border Terrier and West Highland White Terrier). Information on all URT disorders recorded was extracted from individual patient records. Disorder prevalence was compared between groups using the chi-squared test or Fisher’s test, as appropriate. Risk factor analysis used multivariable logistic regression modelling. During the study, 83 (6.9 %) study dogs died. Extreme brachycephalic dogs (median longevity: 8.6 years, IQR: 2.4-10.8) were significantly younger at death than the moderate and non-brachycephalic group of dogs (median 12.7 years, IQR 11.1-15.0) (P \u3c 0.001). A higher proportion of deaths in extreme brachycephalic breed types were associated with URT disorders (4/24 deaths, 16.7 %) compared with the moderate and non-brachycephalic group (0/59 deaths, 0.0 %) (P = 0.001). The prevalence of having at least one URT disorder in the extreme brachycephalic group was higher (22.0 %, 95 % confidence interval (CI): 18.0-26.0) than in the moderate and non-brachycephalic group (9.7 %, 95 % CI: 7.1-12.3, P \u3c 0.001). The prevalence of URT disorders varied significantly by breed type: Bulldogs 19.5 %, French Bulldogs 20.0 %, Pugs 26.5 %, Border Terriers 9.0 %, West Highland White Terriers 7.0 % and Yorkshire Terriers 13.0 % (P \u3c 0.001). After accounting for the effects of age, bodyweight, sex, neutering and insurance, extreme brachycephalic dogs had 3.5 times (95 % CI: 2.4-5.0, P \u3c 0.001) the odds of at least one URT disorder compared with the moderate and non-brachycephalic group. Conclusions: In summary, this study reports that URT disorders are commonly diagnosed in Bulldog, French Bulldog, Pug, Border Terrier, WHWT and Yorkshire Terrier dogs attending primary-care veterinary practices in England. The three extreme brachycephalic breed types (Bulldog, French Bulldog and Pug) were relatively short-lived and predisposed to URT disorders compared with three other small-to-medium size breed types that are commonly owned (moderate brachycephalic Yorkshire Terrier and non-brachycephalic: Border Terrier and WHWT).

Kerr-CFT From Black-Hole Thermodynamics
We analyze the near-horizon limit of a general black hole with two commuting
killing vector fields in the limit of zero temperature. We use black hole
thermodynamics methods to relate asymptotic charges of the complete spacetime
to those obtained in the near-horizon limit. We then show that some
diffeomorphisms do alter asymptotic charges of the full spacetime, even though
they are defined in the near horizon limit and, therefore, count black hole
states. We show that these conditions are essentially the same as considered in
the Kerr/CFT corresponcence. From the algebra constructed from these
diffeomorphisms, one can extract its central charge and then obtain the black
hole entropy by use of Cardy's formula.Comment: 19 pages, JHEP3, no figures. V2: References added, small typos fixe
Central Charges in Extreme Black Hole/CFT Correspondence
The Kerr/CFT correspondence has been recently broadened to the general
extremal black holes under the assumption that the central charges from the
non-gravitational fields vanish. To confirm this proposal, we derive the
expression of the conserved charges in the Einstein-Maxwell-scalar theory with
topological terms in four and five dimensions and check that the above
assumption was correct. Combining the computed central charge with the expected
form of the temperature, the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the general extremal
black holes in four and five dimensions can be reproduced by using the Cardy
formula.Comment: 20 pages, v2:references added, published in JHE
Microscopic Realization of the Kerr/CFT Correspondence
Supersymmetric M/string compactifications to five dimensions contain BPS
black string solutions with magnetic graviphoton charge P and near-horizon
geometries which are quotients of AdS_3 x S^2. The holographic duals are
typically known 2D CFTs with central charges c_L=c_R=6P^3 for large P. These
same 5D compactifications also contain non-BPS but extreme Kerr-Newman black
hole solutions with SU(2)_L spin J_L and electric graviphoton charge Q obeying
Q^3 \leq J_L^2. It is shown that in the maximally charged limit Q^3 -> J_L^2,
the near-horizon geometry coincides precisely with the right-moving temperature
T_R=0 limit of the black string with magnetic charge P=J_L^{1/3}. The known
dual of the latter is identified as the c_L=c_R=6J_L CFT predicted by the
Kerr/CFT correspondence. Moreover, at linear order away from maximality, one
finds a T_R \neq 0 quotient of the AdS_3 factor of the black string solution
and the associated thermal CFT entropy reproduces the linearly sub-maximal
Kerr-Newman entropy. Beyond linear order, for general Q^3<J_L^2, one has a
finite-temperature quotient of a warped deformation of the magnetic string
geometry. The corresponding dual deformation of the magnetic string CFT
potentially supplies, for the general case, the c_L=c_R=6J_L CFT predicted by
Kerr/CFT.Comment: 18 pages, no figure
Holographic Dual of Linear Dilaton Black Hole in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion Gravity
Motivated by the recently proposed Kerr/CFT correspondence, we investigate
the holographic dual of the extremal and non-extremal rotating linear dilaton
black hole in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion Gravity. For the case of extremal
black hole, by imposing the appropriate boundary condition at spatial infinity
of the near horizon extremal geometry, the Virasoro algebra of conserved
charges associated with the asymptotic symmetry group is obtained. It is shown
that the microscopic entropy of the dual conformal field given by Cardy formula
exactly agrees with Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of extremal black hole. Then, by
rewriting the wave equation of massless scalar field with sufficient low energy
as the SL(2, R)SL(2, R) Casimir operator, we find the hidden
conformal symmetry of the non-extremal linear dilaton black hole, which implies
that the non-extremal rotating linear dilaton black hole is holographically
dual to a two dimensional conformal field theory with the non-zero left and
right temperatures. Furthermore, it is shown that the entropy of non-extremal
black hole can be reproduced by using Cardy formula.Comment: 15 pages, no figure, published versio
Holographic Wilsonian flows and emergent fermions in extremal charged black holes
We study holographic Wilsonian RG in a general class of asymptotically AdS
backgrounds with a U(1) gauge field. We consider free charged Dirac fermions in
such a background, and integrate them up to an intermediate radial distance,
yielding an equivalent low energy dual field theory. The new ingredient,
compared to scalars, involves a `generalized' basis of coherent states which
labels a particular half of the fermion components as coordinates or momenta,
depending on the choice of quantization (standard or alternative). We apply
this technology to explicitly compute RG flows of charged fermionic operators
and their composites (double trace operators) in field theories dual to (a)
pure AdS and (b) extremal charged black hole geometries. The flow diagrams and
fixed points are determined explicitly. In the case of the extremal black hole,
the RG flows connect two fixed points at the UV AdS boundary to two fixed
points at the IR AdS_2 region. The double trace flow is shown, both numerically
and analytically, to develop a pole singularity in the AdS_2 region at low
frequency and near the Fermi momentum, which can be traced to the appearance of
massless fermion modes on the low energy cut-off surface. The low energy field
theory action we derive exactly agrees with the semi-holographic action
proposed by Faulkner and Polchinski in arXiv:1001.5049 [hep-th]. In terms of
field theory, the holographic version of Wilsonian RG leads to a quantum theory
with random sources. In the extremal black hole background the random sources
become `light' in the AdS_2 region near the Fermi surface and emerge as new
dynamical degrees of freedom.Comment: 37 pages (including 8 pages of appendix), 10 figures and 2 table
Sensitivity of the superconducting state and magnetic susceptibility to key aspects of electronic structure in ferropnictides
Experiments on the iron-pnictide superconductors appear to show some
materials where the ground state is fully gapped, and others where low-energy
excitations dominate, possibly indicative of gap nodes. Within the framework of
a 5-orbital spin fluctuation theory for these systems, we discuss how changes
in the doping, the electronic structure or interaction parameters can tune the
system from a fully gapped to nodal sign-changing gap with s-wave ()
symmetry (). In particular we focus on the role of the hole pocket at
the point of the unfolded Brillouin zone identified as crucial to
the pairing by Kuroki {\it et al.}, and show that its presence leads to
additional nesting of hole and electron pockets which stabilizes the isotropic
state. The pocket's contribution to the pairing can be tuned by doping,
surface effects, and by changes in interaction parameters, which we examine.
Analytic expressions for orbital pairing vertices calculated within the RPA
fluctuation exchange approximation allow us to draw connections between aspects
of electronic structure, interaction parameters, and the form of the
superconducting gap
