Strong curvature singularities in quasispherical asymptotically de Sitter dust collapse
We study the occurrence, visibility, and curvature strength of singularities
in dust-containing Szekeres spacetimes (which possess no Killing vectors) with
a positive cosmological constant. We find that such singularities can be
locally naked, Tipler strong, and develop from a non-zero-measure set of
regular initial data. When examined along timelike geodesics, the singularity's
curvature strength is found to be independent of the initial data.Comment: 16 pages, LaTeX, uses IOP package, 2 eps figures; accepted for

Radion production in exclusive processes at CERN LHC
In the Randall-Sundrum (RS) scenario the compactification radius of the extra
dimension is stabilized by the radion, which is a scalar field lighter than the
graviton Kaluza-Klein states. It implies that the detection of the radion will
be the first signature of the stabilized RS model. In this paper we study the
exclusive production of the radion in electromagnetic and diffractive hadron -
hadron collisions at the LHC. Our results demonstrate that the diffractive
production of radion is dominant and should be feasible of study at CERN LHC.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, 1 tabl

Physico-chemical spectroscopic mapping of the planetary nebula NGC 40 and the 2D_NEB, a new 2D algorithm to study ionised nebulae
In this paper we present an analysis of the physical and chemical conditions
of the planetary nebula NGC 40 through spatially-resolved spectroscopic maps.
We also introduce a new algorithm --2D_NEB-- based on the well-established IRAF
nebular package, which was developed to enable the use of the spectroscopic
maps to easily estimate the astrophysical quantities of ionised nebulae. The
2D_NEB was benchmarked, and we clearly show that it works properly, since it
compares nicely with the IRAF nebular software.
Using this software, we derive the maps of several physical parameters of NGC
40. From these maps, we conclude that Te[NII] shows only a slight temperature
variation from region to region, with its values constrained between ~8,000 K
and ~9,500 K. Electron densities, on the other hand, have a much more prominent
spatial variation, as Ne[SII] values vary from ~1,000 cm^(-3) to ~3,000
cm^(-3). Maps of the chemical abundances also show significant variations. From
the big picture of our work, we strongly suggest that analysis with spatial
resolution be mandatory for more complete study of the physical and chemical
properties of planetary nebulae.Comment: 15 pages, 10 figures, 8 tables; Accepted for publication in MNRA
Training deep neural density estimators to identify mechanistic models of neural dynamics
Mechanistic modeling in neuroscience aims to explain observed phenomena in terms of underlying causes. However, determining which model parameters agree with complex and stochastic neural data presents a significant challenge. We address this challenge with a machine learning tool which uses deep neural density estimators-- trained using model simulations-- to carry out Bayesian inference and retrieve the full space of parameters compatible with raw data or selected data features. Our method is scalable in parameters and data features, and can rapidly analyze new data after initial training. We demonstrate the power and flexibility of our approach on receptive fields, ion channels, and Hodgkin-Huxley models. We also characterize the space of circuit configurations giving rise to rhythmic activity in the crustacean stomatogastric ganglion, and use these results to derive hypotheses for underlying compensation mechanisms. Our approach will help close the gap between data-driven and theory-driven models of neural dynamics
The anisotropic XY model on the inhomogeneous periodic chain
The static and dynamic properties of the anisotropic XY-model on
the inhomogeneous periodic chain, composed of cells with different
exchange interactions and magnetic moments, in a transverse field are
determined exactly at arbitrary temperatures. The properties are obtained by
introducing the Jordan-Wigner fermionization and by reducing the problem to a
diagonalization of a finite matrix of order. The quantum transitions are
determined exactly by analyzing, as a function of the field, the induced
magnetization 1/n\sum_{m=1}^{n}\mu_{m}\left ( denotes
the cell, the site within the cell, the magnetic moment at site
within the cell) and the spontaneous magnetization which is obtained from the correlations for large spin separations. These results,
which are obtained for infinite chains, correspond to an extension of the ones
obtained by Tong and Zhong(\textit{Physica B} \textbf{304,}91 (2001)). The
dynamic correlations, , and the dynamic
susceptibility, are also obtained at arbitrary
temperatures. Explicit results are presented in the limit T=0, where the
critical behaviour occurs, for the static susceptibility as
a function of the transverse field , and for the frequency dependency of
dynamic susceptibility .Comment: 33 pages, 13 figures, 01 table. Revised version (minor corrections)

Black hole formation from massive scalar fields
It is shown that there exists a range of parameters in which gravitational
collapse with a spherically symmetric massive scalar field can be treated as if
it were collapsing dust. This implies a criterion for the formation of black
holes depending on the size and mass of the initial field configuration and the
mass of the scalar field.Comment: 11 pages, RevTeX, 3 eps figures. Submitted to Class. Quantum Gra
