Title: Quantile-quantile (Q-Q) Plot of six fiber traits generated from GWAS analysis following mixed linear model (MLM) using GAPIT software. A) Fiber elongation (ELO), B) Micronaire (MIC), C) Short fiber content (SFC), D) Fiber strength (STR), E) Upper half mean fiber length (UHM), and F) Uniformity index (UI). Description of data: Q-Q plots of six fiber traits generated from GWAS analysis following MLM are included in this figure. The X and Y axis have the expected and observed negative logarithm 10 of p value, respectively generated during GWAS analysis. (DOCX 207Â kb
Broken symmetry of row switching in 2D Josephson junction arrays
We present an experimental and theoretical study of row switching in
two-dimensional Josephson junction arrays. We have observed novel dynamic
states with peculiar percolative patterns of the voltage drop inside the
arrays. These states were directly visualized using laser scanning microscopy
and manifested by fine branching in the current-voltage characteristics of the
arrays. Numerical simulations show that such percolative patterns have an
intrinsic origin and occur independently of positional disorder. We argue that
the appearance of these dynamic states is due to the presence of various
metastable superconducting states in arrays.Comment: 4 Pages, 6 Figure

Possible first order transition in the two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau model induced by thermally fluctuating vortex cores
We study the two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau model of a neutral superfluid in
the vicinity of the vortex unbinding transition. The model is mapped onto an
effective interacting vortex gas by a systematic perturbative elimination of
all fluctuating degrees of freedom (amplitude {\em and} phase of the order
parameter field) except the vortex positions. In the Coulomb gas descriptions
derived previously in the literature, thermal amplitude fluctuations were
neglected altogether. We argue that, if one includes the latter, the vortices
still form a two- dimensional Coulomb gas, but the vortex fugacity can be
substantially raised. Under the assumption that Minnhagen's generic phase
diagram of the two- dimensional Coulomb gas is correct, our results then point
to a first order transition rather than a Kosterlitz-Thouless transition,
provided the Ginzburg-Landau correlation length is large enough in units of a
microscopic cutoff length for fluctuations. The experimental relevance of these
results is briefly discussed. [Submitted to J. Stat. Phys.]Comment: 36 pages, LaTeX, 6 figures upon request, UATP2-DB1-9

Measurements of differential and double-differential Drell-Yan cross sections in proton-proton collisions at [Formula: see text][Formula: see text].
Measurements of the differential and double-differential Drell-Yan cross sections in the dielectron and dimuon channels are presented. They are based on proton-proton collision data at [Formula: see text] recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7[Formula: see text]. The measured inclusive cross section in the [Formula: see text] peak region (60-120[Formula: see text]), obtained from the combination of the dielectron and dimuon channels, is [Formula: see text], where the statistical uncertainty is negligible. The differential cross section [Formula: see text] in the dilepton mass range 15-2000[Formula: see text] is measured and corrected to the full phase space. The double-differential cross section [Formula: see text] is also measured over the mass range 20 to 1500[Formula: see text] and absolute dilepton rapidity from 0 to 2.4. In addition, the ratios of the normalized differential cross sections measured at [Formula: see text] and 8[Formula: see text] are presented. These measurements are compared to the predictions of perturbative QCD at next-to-leading and next-to-next-to-leading (NNLO) orders using various sets of parton distribution functions (PDFs). The results agree with the NNLO theoretical predictions computed with fewz 3.1 using the CT10 NNLO and NNPDF2.1 NNLO PDFs. The measured double-differential cross section and ratio of normalized differential cross sections are sufficiently precise to constrain the proton PDFs
