Chiral plasma instability and primordial Gravitational wave
It is known that cosmic magnetic field, if present, can generate anisotropic
stress in the plasma and hence, can act as a source of gravitational waves.
These cosmic magnetic fields can be generated at very high temperature, much
above electroweak scale, due to the gravitational anomaly in presence of the
chiral asymmetry. The chiral asymmetry leads to instability in the plasma which
ultimately leads to the generation of magnetic fields. In this article, we
discuss the generation of gravitational waves, during the period of
instability, in the chiral plasma sourced by the magnetic field created due to
the gravitational anomaly. We have shown that such gravitational wave will have
a unique spectrum. Moreover, depending on the temperature of the universe at
the time of its generation, such gravitational waves can have a wide range of
frequencies. We also estimate the amplitude and frequency of the gravitational
waves and delineate the possibility of its detection by future experiments like
eLISA.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure
Bounds on Neutrino Mass in Viscous Cosmology
Effective field theory of dark matter fluid on large scales predicts the
presence of viscosity of the order of . It has been shown
that this magnitude of viscosities can resolve the discordance between large
scale structure observations and Planck CMB data in the -
and - parameters space. Massive neutrinos suppresses the
matter power spectrum on the small length scales similar to the viscosities. We
show that by including the effective viscosity, which arises from summing over
non linear perturbations at small length scales, severely constrains the
cosmological bound on neutrino masses. Under a joint analysis of Planck CMB and
different large scale observation data, we find that upper bound on the sum of
the neutrino masses at 2- level, decreases from eV (normal hierarchy) and eV (inverted
hierarchy) to eV (normal hierarchy) and eV (inverted hierarchy) when the effective viscosities are included.Comment: 19 pages, 13 figure
Thermally Enhanced Stacked Inductor Design for Voltage Regulator Modules
ASIC power requirements have gone up exponentially due to the demand from IoT computing, AI and big data. The VRM (Voltage regulator module) needs to have high power capabilities and efficiency in order to satisfy the TDP (Thermal Design Power) requirement. High peak power operation mode, has also become an industry practice to improve the ASIC instantaneous throughput. This requires more phase count to support the peak current needed during transient. ASIC chips have also increased in size due to the higher pin count for HSIO (High Speed I/O) and interconnects. In order to fit within the limited VRM placement area, a higher power density VRM design is required.
In order to minimize the VRM solution size, and keep good thermal performances, a stacked inductor with a thermal band wrapped around to make contact with the Power Stage (Driver MOS) underneath is introduced. This solves both the space issue and thermal problems from a conventional stacked inductor design. The thermal band, can be either assembled during the inductor manufacturing stage, or can be clipped on to a regular inductor before the SMT stage. This provides a cost effective, reliable and compact VRM structure. Simulation and test results are verified the effectiveness of the proposed structure

Bounds on neutrino mass in viscous cosmology
Effective field theoretic description of dark matter fluid on large scales predicts viscosity of the order 10−6 H0 MP2. Recently, it has been shown that the same magnitude of viscosity can resolve the discordance between large scale structure observations and Planck CMB data in the σ8-Ωm0 and H0-Ωm0 parameters space. On the other hand, massive neutrinos suppresses the matter power spectrum on the small length scales similar to the viscosities. Therefore, it is expected that the viscous dark matter setup along with massive neutrinos can provide stringent constraint on neutrino mass. In this article, we show that the inclusion of effective viscosity, which arises from summing over non linear perturbations at small length scales, indeed severely constrains the cosmological bound on neutrino masses. Under a joint analysis of Planck CMB and different large scale observation data, we find that upper bound on the sum of the neutrino masses, at 2-σ level, decreases respectively from ∑ mν ≤ 0.396 eV (for normal hierarchy) and ∑ mν ≤ 0.378 eV (for inverted hierarchy) to ∑ mν ≤ 0.267 eV (for normal hierarchy) and ∑ mν ≤ 0.146 eV (for inverted hierarchy).by Sampurn Ananda, Prakrut Chaubala, Arindam Mazumdara, Subhendra Mohantya and Priyank Parashari
