Quantitative test of a quantum theory for the resistive transition in a superconducting single-walled carbon nanotube bundle
The phenomenon of superconductivity depends on the coherence of the phase of
the superconducting order parameter. The resistive transition in
quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) superconductors is broad because of a large
phase fluctuation. We show that the resistive transition of a superconducting
single-walled carbon nanotube bundle is in quantitative agreement with the
Langer-Ambegaokar-McCumber-Halperin (LAMH) theory. We also demonstrate that the
resistive transition below T^*_c = 0.89T_c0 is simply proportional to exp
[-(3\beta T^*_c/T)(1-T/T^*_c)^3/2], where the barrier height has the same form
as that predicted by the LAMH theory and T_c0 is the mean field superconducting
transition temperature.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Dark viscous fluid described by a unified equation of state in cosmology
We generalize the CDM model by introducing a unified EOS to describe
the Universe contents modeled as dark viscous fluid, motivated by the fact that
a single constant equation of state (EOS) () reproduces the
CDM model exactly. This EOS describes the perfect fluid term, the
dissipative effect, and the cosmological constant in a unique framework and the
Friedmann equations can be analytically solved. Especially, we find a relation
between the EOS parameter and the renormalizable condition of a scalar field.
We develop a completely numerical method to perform a minimization to
constrain the parameters in a cosmological model directly from the Friedmann
equations, and employ the SNe data with the parameter measured
from the SDSS data to constrain our model. The result indicates that the
dissipative effect is rather small in the late-time Universe.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures. v2: new materials added. v3: matches the version

Non-degenerate colorings in the Brook's Theorem
Let and be two integers. We will call a proper coloring
of the graph a \textit{-nondegenerate}, if for any vertex of
with degree at least there are at least vertices of different colors
adjacent to it. In our work we prove the following result, which generalizes
Brook's Theorem. Let and be a graph without cliques on
vertices and the degree of any vertex in this graph is not greater than .
Then for every integer there is a proper -nondegenerate vertex
-coloring of , where During the primary proof,
some interesting corollaries are derived.Comment: 18 pages, 10 figure
Octet baryon masses in next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory
We study the ground-state octet baryon masses and sigma terms using the
covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) with the
extended-on-mass-shell (EOMS) renormalization scheme up to
next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (NLO). By adjusting the available 19
low-energy constants (LECs), a reasonable fit of the lattice quantum
chromodynamics (LQCD) results from the PACS-CS, LHPC, HSC, QCDSF-UKQCD and
NPLQCD collaborations is achieved. Finite-volume corrections to the lattice
data are calculated self-consistently. Our study shows that NLO BChPT
describes better the light quark mass evolution of the lattice data than the
NNLO BChPT does and the various lattice simulations seem to be consistent with
each other. We also predict the pion and strangeness sigma terms of the octet
baryons using the LECs determined in the fit of their masses. The predicted
pion- and strangeness-nucleon sigma terms are MeV and
MeV, respectively.Comment: 28 pages, 6 figures, minor revisions, typos corrected, version to

The effect of asymmetry of the coil block on self-assembly in ABC coil-rod-coil triblock copolymers
Using the self-consistent field approach, the effect of asymmetry of the coil
block on the microphase separation is focused in ABC coil-rod-coil triblock
copolymers. For different fractions of the rod block , some stable
structures are observed, i.e., lamellae, cylinders, gyroid, and core-shell
hexagonal lattice, and the phase diagrams are constructed. The calculated
results show that the effect of the coil block fraction is
dependent on . When , the effect of asymmetry of
the coil block is similar to that of the ABC flexible triblock copolymers; When
, the self-assembly of ABC coil-rod-coil triblock copolymers
behaves like rod-coil diblock copolymers under some condition. When continues to increase, the effect of asymmetry of the coil block reduces.
For , under the symmetrical and rather asymmetrical
conditions, an increase in the interaction parameter between different
components leads to different transitions between cylinders and lamellae. The
results indicate some remarkable effect of the chain architecture on
self-assembly, and can provide the guidance for the design and synthesis of
copolymer materials.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figure
Matter loops corrected modified gravity in Palatini formulation
Recently, corrections to the standard Einstein-Hilbert action are proposed to
explain the current cosmic acceleration in stead of introducing dark energy. In
the Palatini formulation of those modified gravity models, there is an
important observation due to Arkani-Hamed: matter loops will give rise to a
correction to the modified gravity action proportional to the Ricci scalar of
the metric. In the presence of such term, we show that the current forms of
modified gravity models in Palatini formulation, specifically, the 1/R gravity
and gravity, will have phantoms. Then we study the possible
instabilities due to the presence of phantom fields. We show that the strong
instability in the metric formulation of 1/R gravity indicated by Dolgov and
Kawasaki will not appear and the decay timescales for the phantom fields may be
long enough for the theories to make sense as effective field theory . On the
other hand, if we change the sign of the modification terms to eliminate the
phantoms, some other inconsistencies will arise for the various versions of the
modified gravity models. Finally, we comment on the universal property of the
Palatini formulation of the matter loops corrected modified gravity models and
its implications.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figures, References adde
A new efficient method for analysis of finite periodic structures
The electromagnetic modeling of practical finite periodic structures is a topic of growing interest. Due to the truncation of the infinite periodic structures, surface waves will be excited and localized near the discontinuous interfaces leading to the edge effect of finite structures. In this work, surface waves are numerically disentangled from the propagating Bloch waves contributions. Based on the universally exponential decay feature of the surface waves, a novel method is developed by connecting the solution to the large finite periodic structure with that to a relatively small one resulting in low complexity and memory consumption. The method numerically reconstructs propagating Bloch waves and surface waves according to the Bloch-Floquet theorem of periodic structures and translation invariant properties of semi-infinite periodic structures, respectively. Numerical examples are privided to validate the efficiency and accuracy of the newly developed method.postprin
Research on surface defect detection method of metallurgical saw blade based on YOLOV5
As a typical cutting tool with good performance and high processing efficiency, metallurgical saw blades are widely used in various industries, but surface defects are inevitably generated in the manufacturing process.
