Strong gravitational lensing across dilaton anti-de Sitter black hole
In this work we investigate gravitational lensing effect in strong field
region around a dilaton black holes in an anti de Sitter (ADS) space. We also
analyse the dependence of the radius of the photon sphere and deflection angle
on dilaton coupling and cosmological constant in this black hole space time.
Finally the values of minimum impact parameter, the separation between the
first and the other images as well as the ratio between the flux of the first
image and the flux coming from all the other images are determined to
characterize some possible distinct signatures of such black holes.Comment: 8 pages and 3 figures. Accepted in Physical Review
Matter-gravity interaction in a multiply warped braneworld,
The role of a bulk graviton in predicting the signature of extra dimensions
through collider-based experiments is explored in the context of a multiply
warped spacetime. In particular it is shown that in a doubly warped braneworld
model, the presence of the sixth dimension, results in enhanced concentration
of graviton Kaluza Klein (KK) modes compared to that obtained in the usual
5-dimensional Randall-Sundrum model. Also, the couplings of these massive
graviton KK modes with the matter fields on the visible brane turn out to be
appreciably larger than that in the corresponding 5- dimensional model. The
significance of these results are discussed in the context of KK graviton
search at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).Comment: 13 pages, 2 table

An electronic health record (EHR) log analysis shows limited clinician engagement with unsolicited genetic test results
How clinicians utilize medically actionable genomic information, displayed in the electronic health record (EHR), in medical decision-making remains unknown. Participating sites of the Electronic Medical Records and Genomics (eMERGE) Network have invested resources into EHR integration efforts to enable the display of genetic testing data across heterogeneous EHR systems. To assess clinicians' engagement with unsolicited EHR-integrated genetic test results of eMERGE participants within a large tertiary care academic medical center, we analyzed automatically generated EHR access log data. We found that clinicians viewed only 1% of all the eMERGE genetic test results integrated in the EHR. Using a cluster analysis, we also identified different user traits associated with varying degrees of engagement with the EHR-integrated genomic data. These data contribute important empirical knowledge about clinicians limited and brief engagements with unsolicited EHR-integrated genetic test results of eMERGE participants. Appreciation for user-specific roles provide additional context for why certain users were more or less engaged with the unsolicited results. This study highlights opportunities to use EHR log data as a performance metric to more precisely inform ongoing EHR-integration efforts and decisions about the allocation of informatics resources in genomic research
The Raychaudhuri equations: a brief review
We present a brief review on the Raychaudhuri equations. Beginning with a
summary of the essential features of the original article by Raychaudhuri and
subsequent work of numerous authors, we move on to a discussion of the
equations in the context of alternate non--Riemannian spacetimes as well as
other theories of gravity, with a special mention on the equations in
spacetimes with torsion (Einstein--Cartan--Sciama--Kibble theory). Finally, we
give an overview of some recent applications of these equations in General
Relativity, Quantum Field Theory, String Theory and the theory of relativisitic
membranes. We conclude with a summary and provide our own perspectives on
directions of future research.Comment: 35 pages, two figures, to appear in the special issue of Pramana
