Two dimensional anisotropic non Fermi-liquid phase of coupled Luttinger liquids
We show using bosonization techniques, that strong forward scattering
interactions between one dimensional spinless Luttinger liquids (LL) can
stabilize a phase where charge-density wave, superconducting and transverse
single particle hopping perturbations are irrelevant. This new phase retains
its LL like properties in the directions of the chains, but with relations
between exponents modified by the transverse interactions, whereas, it is a
perfect insulator in the transverse direction. The mechanism that stabilizes
this phase are strong transverse charge density wave fluctuations at
incommensurate wavevector, which frustrates crystal formation by preventing
lock-in of the in-chain density waves.Comment: (4 pages, 2 figures
Current fluctuations near to the 2D superconductor-insulator quantum critical point
Systems near to quantum critical points show universal scaling in their
response functions. We consider whether this scaling is reflected in their
fluctuations; namely in current-noise. Naive scaling predicts low-temperature
Johnson noise crossing over to noise power at strong
electric fields. We study this crossover in the metallic state at the 2d z=1
superconductor/insulator quantum critical point. Using a Boltzmann-Langevin
approach within a 1/N-expansion, we show that the current noise obeys a scaling
form with . We recover
Johnson noise in thermal equilibrium and at strong
electric fields. The suppression from free carrier shot noise is due to strong
correlations at the critical point. We discuss its interpretation in terms of a
diverging carrier charge or as out-of-equilibrium Johnson
noise with effective temperature .Comment: 5 page
Randomised prospective comparative analysis of functional outcome of osteosynthesis of intra-articular distal humerus fracture using triceps reflecting and transolecrenon approach
Background: Intra articular fractures of distal humerus is one of the demanding injuries to manage due to its complex anatomy. Open reduction internal fixation is able to achieve painless, stable and mobile joint. This study is aimed at comparing functional outcome of patients treated with triceps reflecting and olecranon osteotomy approach.Methods: A hospital based randomized comparative study of 40 patients who diagnosed with distal humerus intraarticular fracture admitted in our hospital from April 2017 to March 2019. Triceps reflecting approach (group A) was used in 20 patients and olecranon osteotomy approach (group B) in 20 patients. Elbow range of movements and Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) was used to compare outcome.Results: The mean elbow range of motion is 95.8±13.5 degree at 1 year follow up in group A and 94.5±9.3 degree in 1 year follow up at 1 year follow up in group B. The mean MEP score at end of 1 year in group A was 93.8±2.9 and in group B was 91.5±3.2 shows excellent results but there was no statistically significant difference between MEP scores of two groups. We observed 6 patients developed extension lag less than 10 degree in group A which was clinically insignificant to patients and 7 patients developed hardware prominence in group B.Conclusions: Triceps reflecting Bryan Morrey approach is equally effective as olecranon osteotomy approach in treatment of distal humerus intra articular fracture with less complication and operative time
Forecasting Stock Time-Series using Data Approximation and Pattern Sequence Similarity
Time series analysis is the process of building a model using statistical
techniques to represent characteristics of time series data. Processing and
forecasting huge time series data is a challenging task. This paper presents
Approximation and Prediction of Stock Time-series data (APST), which is a two
step approach to predict the direction of change of stock price indices. First,
performs data approximation by using the technique called Multilevel Segment
Mean (MSM). In second phase, prediction is performed for the approximated data
using Euclidian distance and Nearest-Neighbour technique. The computational
cost of data approximation is O(n ni) and computational cost of prediction task
is O(m |NN|). Thus, the accuracy and the time required for prediction in the
proposed method is comparatively efficient than the existing Label Based
Forecasting (LBF) method [1].Comment: 11 page
Search for gamma rays of energy 10(15) eV from Cygnus X-3
Finite flux of excess radiation of energy 10 to the 15th power has been reported by two groups from the direction of Cygnus X-3, with the characteristic periodicity of 4.8 hrs. Samorski and Stamm find that the muon content of the showers generated by this excess radiation is about 77% of that in normal cosmic ray showers, whereas the expectation for gamma ray showers is less than 10%. It is thus difficult to understand the nature of the radiation arriving from the direction of Cygnus X-3. Samorski and Stamm measured the muon densities close to the core (approx. 10 m), where contamination due to other components is severe. Even though this does not explain the high ratio of muon densities, measurements should be carried out away from the core to establish the nature of the radiation. In order to establish the signal from Cygnus X-3 and its muon content with better statistical significance, an extensive air shower array, specifically designed for this purpose was operated at Kolar Gold Fields (longitude: 78 deg .3 E; latitude: + 12 deg .95; atmospheric depth: 920 q/square centimeters) since September, 1984. The details of the array and the accuracy of arrival direction measurements are discussed
