Quantum mechanics and geodesic deviation in the brane world
We investigate the induced geodesic deviation equations in the brane world
models, in which all the matter forces except gravity are confined on the
3-brane. Also, the Newtonian limit of induced geodesic deviation equation is
studied. We show that in the first Randall-Sundrum model the Bohr-Sommerfeld
quantization rule is as a result of consistency between the geodesic and
geodesic deviation equations. This indicates that the path of test particle is
made up of integral multiples of a fundamental Compton-type unit of length

Magneto-hydrodynamics of multi-phase flows in heterogeneous systems with large property gradients
From Springer Nature via Jisc Publications RouterHistory: received 2021-02-02, accepted 2021-08-13, registration 2021-08-23, pub-electronic 2021-09-23, online 2021-09-23, collection 2021-12Publication status: PublishedFunder: Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council; doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100000266; Grant(s): EP/P005284/1Abstract: The complex interplay between thermal, hydrodynamic, and electromagnetic, forces governs the evolution of multi-phase systems in high technology applications, such as advanced manufacturing and fusion power plant operation. In this work, a new formulation of the time dependent magnetic induction equation is fully coupled to a set of conservation laws for multi-phase fluid flow, energy transport and chemical species transport that describes melting and solidification state transitions. A finite-volume discretisation of the resulting system of equations is performed, where a novel projection method is formulated to ensure that the magnetic field remains divergence free. The proposed framework is validated by accurately replicating a Hartmann flow profile. Further validation is performed through correctly predicting the experimentally observed trajectory of Argon bubbles rising in a liquid metal under varying applied magnetic fields. Finally, the applicability of the framework to technologically relevant processes is illustrated through the simulation of an electrical arc welding process between dissimilar metals. The proposed framework addresses an urgent need for numerical methods to understand the evolution of multi-phase systems with large electromagnetic property contrast
Gauge Theories with Cayley-Klein and Gauge Groups
Gauge theories with the orthogonal Cayley-Klein gauge groups and
are regarded. For nilpotent values of the contraction
parameters these groups are isomorphic to the non-semisimple Euclid,
Newton, Galilei groups and corresponding matter spaces are fiber spaces with
degenerate metrics. It is shown that the contracted gauge field theories
describe the same set of fields and particle mass as gauge
theories, if Lagrangians in the base and in the fibers all are taken into
account. Such theories based on non-semisimple contracted group provide more
simple field interactions as compared with the initial ones.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure

Hybrid Decay: A Transgenerational Epigenetic Decline in Vigor and Viability Triggered in Backcross Populations of Teosinte with Maize.
In the course of generating populations of maize with teosinte chromosomal introgressions, an unusual sickly plant phenotype was noted in individuals from crosses with two teosinte accessions collected near Valle de Bravo, Mexico. The plants of these Bravo teosinte accessions appear phenotypically normal themselves and the F1 plants appear similar to typical maize × teosinte F1s. However, upon backcrossing to maize, the BC1 and subsequent generations display a number of detrimental characteristics including shorter stature, reduced seed set, and abnormal floral structures. This phenomenon is observed in all BC individuals and there is no chromosomal segment linked to the sickly plant phenotype in advanced backcross generations. Once the sickly phenotype appears in a lineage, normal plants are never again recovered by continued backcrossing to the normal maize parent. Whole-genome shotgun sequencing reveals a small number of genomic sequences, some with homology to transposable elements, that have increased in copy number in the backcross populations. Transcriptome analysis of seedlings, which do not have striking phenotypic abnormalities, identified segments of 18 maize genes that exhibit increased expression in sickly plants. A de novo assembly of transcripts present in plants exhibiting the sickly phenotype identified a set of 59 upregulated novel transcripts. These transcripts include some examples with sequence similarity to transposable elements and other sequences present in the recurrent maize parent (W22) genome as well as novel sequences not present in the W22 genome. Genome-wide profiles of gene expression, DNA methylation, and small RNAs are similar between sickly plants and normal controls, although a few upregulated transcripts and transposable elements are associated with altered small RNA or methylation profiles. This study documents hybrid incompatibility and genome instability triggered by the backcrossing of Bravo teosinte with maize. We name this phenomenon "hybrid decay" and present ideas on the mechanism that may underlie it
