2. Macroscopic analysis and modelling of multi-class, flexible-lane traffic

Author: Knoop, Victor L., Schakel, Wouter J., van Oijen, Tim P., and Leclercq, Ludovic
Subjects: Physics - Physics and Society
Abstract: An excessive demand of vehicles to a motorway bottleneck leads to traffic jams. Motorbikes are narrow and can drive next to each other in a lane, or in-between lanes in low speeds. This paper analyses the resulting traffic characteristics and presents numerical scheme for a macroscopic traffic flow model for these two classes. The behavior included is as follows. If there are two motorbikes behind each other, they can travel next to each other in one lane, occupying the space of one car. Also, at low speeds of car traffic, they can go in between the main lanes, creating a so-called filtering lane. The paper numerically derives functions of class-specific speeds as function of the density of both classes, incorporating flexible lane usage dependent on the speed. The roadway capacity as function of the motorbike fraction is derived, which interesting can be in different types of phases (with motorbikes at higher speeds or not). We also present a numerical scheme to analyse the dynamics of this multi-class system. We apply the model to an example case, revealing the properties of the traffic stream , queue dynamics and class specific travel times. The model can help in showing the relative advantage in travel time of switching to a motorbike.

Abstract: Abstract Background Severe fatigue is a common symptom for people with visual impairment, with a detrimental effect on emotional functioning, cognition, work capacity and activities of daily living. A previous study found that depression was one of the most important determinants of fatigue, but less is known about disease-specific factors in this patient population. This study aimed to explore the association between visual impairment severity and fatigue in adults with low vision, both directly and indirectly, with vision-specific factors and depression as potential mediators. Methods Cross-sectional data were collected from 220 Dutch low vision service patients by telephone interviews. Fatigue was defined as a latent variable by severity and impact on daily life. Potential mediators included vision-related symptoms, adaptation to vision loss and depression. Hypothesized structural equation models were constructed in Mplus to test (in)direct effects of visual impairment severity (mild/moderate, severe, blindness) on fatigue through above mentioned variables. Results The final model explained 60% of fatigue variance and revealed a significant total effect of visual impairment severity on fatigue. Patients with severe visual impairment (reference group) had significantly higher fatigue symptoms compared to those with mild/moderate visual impairment (β = -0.50, 95% bias-corrected confidence interval [BC CI] [-0.86, -0.16]) and those with blindness (β = -0.44, 95% BC CI [-0.80, -0.07]). Eye strain & light disturbance, depression and vision-related mobility mediated the fatigue difference between the severe and mild/moderate visual impairment categories. The fatigue difference between the severe visual impairment and blindness categories was solely explained by eye strain & light disturbance. Moreover, depressive symptoms (β = 0.65, p

5. Towards retrospective motion correction and reconstruction for clinical 3D brain MRI protocols with a reference contrast

Author: Rizzuti, Gabrio, Schakel, Tim, Huttinga, Niek R. F., Dankbaar, Jan Willem, van Leeuwen, Tristan, and Sbrizzi, Alessandro
Subjects: Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Image and Video Processing
Abstract: Motion artifacts often spoil the radiological interpretation of MR images, and in the most severe cases the scan needs be repeated, with additional costs for the provider. We discuss the application of a novel 3D retrospective rigid motion correction and reconstruction scheme for MRI, which leverages multiple scans contained in a MR session. Typically, in a multi-contrast MR session, motion does not equally affect all the scans, and some motion-free scans are generally available, so that we can exploit their anatomic similarity. The uncorrupted scan is used as a reference in a generalized rigid-motion registration problem to remove the motion artifacts affecting the corrupted scans. We discuss the potential of the proposed algorithm with a prospective in-vivo study and clinical 3D brain protocols. This framework can be easily incorporated into the existing clinical practice with no disruption to the conventional workflow.

6. Internationalisation and Study Success: Class Attendance and the Delicate Balance between Collaborative Learning and Being Lost in Translation

Author: Bijsmans, Patrick, Schakel, Arjan H., Baykal, Asena, and Hegewald, Sven
Abstract: The internationalisation of Higher Education is broadly seen as a positive development. It is a process that is said to contribute to intercultural skills acquisition, which is deemed crucial in today's globalised society. Yet, research has shown that the benefits of being confronted with other ideas and viewpoints can get lost in translation due to different languages and academic cultures. We set out to explore the impact of the international classroom on study success and argue that there might be an optimum level of internationalisation. Based on a dataset that includes more than 2822 GPA scores for 836 students from four first-year cohorts of an international Bachelor in European Studies, we find strong empirical evidence that students' study success is lower when there are few (below 3) or many (above 6) different nationalities in the classroom. We find the strongest effects of internationalisation for students who regularly attend class (i.e. 80-90%). Hence, we present strong evidence that internationalisation has a both a negative and a positive impact on students' study success but students will only experience these beneficial and detrimental effects of learning in an international environment when they attend class.

Abstract: PANDA (anti-Proton ANnihiliation at DArmstadt) is planned to be one of the four main experiments at the future international accelerator complex FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) in Darmstadt, Germany. It is going to address fundamental questions of hadron physics and quantum chromodynamics using cooled antiproton beams with a high intensity and and momenta between 1.5 and 15 GeV/c. PANDA is designed to reach a maximum luminosity of 2x10^32 cm^2 s. Most of the physics programs require an excellent particle identification (PID). The PID of hadronic states at the forward endcap of the target spectrometer will be done by a fast and compact Cherenkov detector that uses the detection of internally reflected Cherenkov light (DIRC) principle. It is designed to cover the polar angle range from 5{\deg} to 22{\deg} and to provide a separation power for the separation of charged pions and kaons up to 3 standard deviations (s.d.) for particle momenta up to 4 GeV/c in order to cover the important particle phase space. This document describes the technical design and the expected performance of the novel PANDA Disc DIRC detector that has not been used in any other high energy physics experiment (HEP) before. The performance has been studied with Monte-Carlo simulations and various beam tests at DESY and CERN. The final design meets all PANDA requirements and guarantees suffcient safety margins., Comment: TDR for Panda/Fair to be published

Abstract: Background and Purpose: The heart is important in radiotherapy either as target or organ at risk. Quantitative T1 and T2 cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI) may aid in target definition for cardiac radioablation, and imaging biomarker for cardiotoxicity assessment. Hybrid MR-linac devices could facilitate daily cardiac qMRI of the heart in radiotherapy. The aim of this work was therefore to enable cardiac-synchronized T1 and T2 mapping on a 1.5 T MR-linac and test the reproducibility of these sequences on phantoms and in vivo between the MR-linac and a diagnostic 1.5 T MRI scanner. Materials and methods: Cardiac-synchronized MRI was performed on the MR-linac using a wireless peripheral pulse-oximeter unit. Diagnostically used T1 and T2 mapping sequences were acquired twice on the MR-linac and on a 1.5 T MR-simulator for a gel phantom and 5 healthy volunteers in breath-hold. Phantom T1 and T2 values were compared to gold-standard measurements and percentage errors (PE) were computed, where negative/positive PE indicate underestimations/overestimations. Manually selected regions-of-interest were used for in vivo intra/inter scanner evaluation. Results: Cardiac-synchronized T1 and T2 qMRI was enabled after successful hardware installation on the MR-linac. From the phantom experiments, the measured T1/T2 relaxation times had a maximum percentage error (PE) of −4.4%/−8.8% on the MR-simulator and a maximum PE of −3.2%/+8.6% on the MR-linac. Mean T1/T2 of the myocardium were 1012±34/51±2 ms on the MR-simulator and 1034±42/51±1 ms on the MR-linac. Conclusions: Accurate cardiac-synchronized T1 and T2 mapping is feasible on a 1.5 T MR-linac and might enable novel plan adaptation workflows and cardiotoxicity assessments.

11. Using Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) to Form High-Performance Vehicle Streams. FINAL REPORT

Author: Liu, Hao, Xiao, Lin, Kan, Xingan (David), Shladover, Steven E., Lu, Xiao-Yun, Wang, Meng, Schakel, Wouter, and van Arem, Bart
Abstract: Freeway capacity and throughput can be significantly improved via CACC vehicle string operations. This research aims to provide authoritative predictions regarding impacts of CACC on traffic flow and quantitative estimations of the influences of CACC operation strategies that might create the capacity and throughput improvement in the freeway traffic stream. To this end, the PATH and Delft team have independently developed micro simulation platforms that represent the behaviors of CACC vehicles and their interactions with human drivers. The models have been calibrated using archived data from a complicated 13-mile long section of the northbound SR-99 freeway near Sacramento, California for an 8-hour period in which the traffic fluctuated between free-flow and congested conditions. Calibration results show extremely good agreement between field data and model predictions. The models have been cross-validated and produced similar macroscopic traffic performance. With the simulation platforms, we have explored the effects of CACC under various market penetrations and the impacts of a CACC managed lane (ML) strategy, a vehicle awareness device (VAD) strategy and discretionary lane change (DLC) restrictions on the traffic flow dynamics of a simple four-lane freeway section and the 13-mile freeway corridor.

Abstract: The exclusive charmonium production process in $\bar{p}p$ annihilation with an associated $\pi^0$ meson $\bar{p}p\to J/\psi\pi^0$ is studied in the framework of QCD collinear factorization. The feasibility of measuring this reaction through the $J/\psi\to e^+e^-$ decay channel with the PANDA (AntiProton ANnihilation at DArmstadt) experiment is investigated. Simulations on signal reconstruction efficiency as well as the background rejection from various sources including the $\bar{p}p\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and $\bar{p}p\to J/\psi\pi^0\pi^0$ reactions are performed with PandaRoot, the simulation and analysis software framework of the PANDA experiment. It is shown that the measurement can be done at PANDA with significant constraining power under the assumption of an integrated luminosity attainable in four to five months of data taking at the maximum design luminosity., Comment: 25 pages, 22 figures

Abstract: Simulation results for future measurements of electromagnetic proton form factors at \PANDA (FAIR) within the PandaRoot software framework are reported. The statistical precision with which the proton form factors can be determined is estimated. The signal channel $\bar p p \to e^+ e^-$ is studied on the basis of two different but consistent procedures. The suppression of the main background channel, $\textit{i.e.}$ $\bar p p \to \pi^+ \pi^-$, is studied. Furthermore, the background versus signal efficiency, statistical and systematical uncertainties on the extracted proton form factors are evaluated using two different procedures. The results are consistent with those of a previous simulation study using an older, simplified framework. However, a slightly better precision is achieved in the PandaRoot study in a large range of momentum transfer, assuming the nominal beam conditions and detector performance.

15. Controlled Experiments for Word Embeddings

Author: Wilson, Benjamin J. and Schakel, Adriaan M. J.

Abstract: An experimental approach to studying the properties of word embeddings is proposed. Controlled experiments, achieved through modifications of the training corpus, permit the demonstration of direct relations between word properties and word vector direction and length. The approach is demonstrated using the word2vec CBOW model with experiments that independently vary word frequency and word co-occurrence noise. The experiments reveal that word vector length depends more or less linearly on both word frequency and the level of noise in the co-occurrence distribution of the word. The coefficients of linearity depend upon the word. The special point in feature space, defined by the (artificial) word with pure noise in its co-occurrence distribution, is found to be small but non-zero., Comment: Chagelog: Rerun experiment with subsampling turned off; re-interpreted results in light of Schnabel et al.

16. Measuring Word Significance using Distributed Representations of Words

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J. and Wilson, Benjamin J.
Subjects: Computer Science - Computation and Language
Abstract: Distributed representations of words as real-valued vectors in a relatively low-dimensional space aim at extracting syntactic and semantic features from large text corpora. A recently introduced neural network, named word2vec (Mikolov et al., 2013a; Mikolov et al., 2013b), was shown to encode semantic information in the direction of the word vectors. In this brief report, it is proposed to use the length of the vectors, together with the term frequency, as measure of word significance in a corpus. Experimental evidence using a domain-specific corpus of abstracts is presented to support this proposal. A useful visualization technique for text corpora emerges, where words are mapped onto a two-dimensional plane and automatically ranked by significance., Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures

Abstract: Baryon-to-meson Transition Distribution Amplitudes (TDAs) encoding valuable new information on hadron structure appear as building blocks in the collinear factorized description for several types of hard exclusive reactions. In this paper, we address the possibility of accessing nucleon-to-pion ($\pi N$) TDAs from $\bar{p}p \to e^+e^- \pi^0$ reaction with the future \={P}ANDA detector at the FAIR facility. At high center of mass energy and high invariant mass squared of the lepton pair $q^2$, the amplitude of the signal channel $\bar{p}p \to e^+e^- \pi^0$ admits a QCD factorized description in terms of $\pi N$ TDAs and nucleon Distribution Amplitudes (DAs) in the forward and backward kinematic regimes. Assuming the validity of this factorized description, we perform feasibility studies for measuring $\bar{p}p \to e^+e^- \pi^0$ with the \={P}ANDA detector. Detailed simulations on signal reconstruction efficiency as well as on rejection of the most severe background channel, i.e. $\bar{p}p \to \pi^+\pi^- \pi^0$ were performed for the center of mass energy squared $s = 5$ GeV$^2$ and $s = 10$ GeV$^2$, in the kinematic regions $3.0 < q^2 < 4.3$ GeV$^2$ and $5 < q^2 < 9$ GeV$^2$, respectively, with a neutral pion scattered in the forward or backward cone $| \cos\theta_{\pi^0}| > 0.5 $ in the proton-antiproton center of mass frame. Results of the simulation show that the particle identification capabilities of the \={P}ANDA detector will allow to achieve a background rejection factor of $5\cdot 10^7$ ($1\cdot 10^7$) at low (high) $q^2$ for $s=5$ GeV$^2$, and of $1\cdot 10^8$ ($6\cdot 10^6$) at low (high) $q^2$ for $s=10$ GeV$^2$, while keeping the signal reconstruction efficiency at around $40\%$. At both energies, a clean lepton signal can be reconstructed with the expected statistics corresponding to $2$ fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity.

19. Critical Line of the O($N$) Loop Model on the Square Lattice

Author: Silva, Antônio Márcio P., Schakel, Adriaan M. J., and Vasconcelos, Giovani L.
Subjects: Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics
Abstract: An efficient algorithm is presented to simulate the O(N) loop model on the square lattice for arbitrary values of $N>0$. The scheme combines the worm algorithm with a new data structure to resolve both the problem of loop crossings and the necessity of counting the number of loops at each Monte Carlo update. With the use of this scheme, the line of critical points (and other properties) of the O($N$) model on the square lattice for $0

20. The Impact of Attendance on First-Year Study Success in Problem-Based Learning

Author: Bijsmans, Patrick and Schakel, Arjan H.
Abstract: The literature on first-year study success has identified a host of factors that may affect a student's chances of succeeding, ranging from personal circumstances to educational environment. One of the factors that often emerges in this context is (non-)attendance of classes, lectures and tutorials. Intuitively, one would expect this to be all the more important in programmes that employ a student-centred and interactive approach to learning, such as problem-based learning. Interestingly, there is little dedicated research that looks into the importance of (non-)attendance in such a learning environment. This article addresses this gap in the literature by looking at the effect of (non-)attendance on the study success of three cohorts of Maastricht University's Bachelor in European Studies (annual intake of 325-350 students). Controlling for a range of factors, we find that attendance matters for several measures of study success and also for the committed and participating student.

21. Audio-Visual Speech in Noise Perception in Dyslexia

Author: van Laarhoven, Thijs, Keetels, Mirjam, Schakel, Lemmy, and Vroomen, Jean
Abstract: Individuals with developmental dyslexia (DD) may experience, besides reading problems, other speech-related processing deficits. Here, we examined the influence of visual articulatory information (lip-read speech) at various levels of background noise on auditory word recognition in children and adults with DD. We found that children with a documented history of DD have deficits in their ability to gain benefit from lip-read information that disambiguates noise-masked speech. We show with another group of adult individuals with DD that these deficits persist into adulthood. These deficits could not be attributed to impairments in unisensory auditory word recognition. Rather, the results indicate a specific deficit in audio-visual speech processing and suggest that impaired multisensory integration might be an important aspect of DD.

22. Vortex motion around a circular cylinder

Author: Vasconcelos, G. L., Moura, M. N., and Schakel, A. M. J.
Subjects: Physics - Fluid Dynamics
Abstract: The motion of a pair of counter-rotating point vortices placed in a uniform flow around a circular cylinder forms a rich nonlinear system that is often used to model vortex shedding. The phase portrait of the Hamiltonian governing the dynamics of a vortex pair that moves symmetrically with respect to the centerline---a case that can be realized experimentally by placing a splitter plate in the center plane---is presented. The analysis provides new insights and reveals novel dynamical features of the system, such as a nilpotent saddle point at infinity whose homoclinic orbits define the region of nonlinear stability of the so-called F\"oppl equilibrium. It is pointed out that a vortex pair properly placed downstream can overcome the cylinder and move off to infinity upstream. In addition, the nonlinear dynamics resulting from antisymmetric perturbations of the F\"oppl equilibrium is studied and its relevance to vortex shedding discussed., Comment: 21 pages, 6 figures

Abstract: This document describes the technical layout and the expected performance of the Straw Tube Tracker (STT), the main tracking detector of the PANDA target spectrometer. The STT encloses a Micro-Vertex-Detector (MVD) for the inner tracking and is followed in beam direction by a set of GEM-stations. The tasks of the STT are the measurement of the particle momentum from the reconstructed trajectory and the measurement of the specific energy-loss for a particle identification. Dedicated simulations with full analysis studies of certain proton-antiproton reactions, identified as being benchmark tests for the whole PANDA scientific program, have been performed to test the STT layout and performance. The results are presented, and the time lines to construct the STT are described., Comment: accepted for publication on EPJA

Subjects: Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics, High Energy Physics - Lattice
Abstract: The loop gas approach to lattice field theory provides an alternative, geometrical description in terms of fluctuating loops. Statistical ensembles of random loops can be efficiently generated by Monte Carlo simulations using the worm update algorithm. In this paper, concepts from percolation theory and the theory of self-avoiding random walks are used to describe estimators of physical observables that utilize the nature of the worm algorithm. The fractal structure of the random loops as well as their scaling properties are studied. To support this approach, the O(1) loop model, or high-temperature series expansion of the Ising model, is simulated on a honeycomb lattice, with its known exact results providing valuable benchmarks., Comment: 34 pages, 12 figures; v2: 2 figures and 1 table added; v3: typo's corrected

Abstract: The fractal structure of high-temperature graphs of the three-dimensional Ising and XY models is investigated by simulating these graphs directly on a cubic lattice and analyzing them with the help of percolation observables. The Ising graphs are shown to percolate right at the Curie critical point. The diverging length scale relevant to the graphs in the vicinity of the percolation threshold is shown to be provided by the spin correlation length. The fractal dimension of the high-temperature graphs at criticality is estimated to be $D = 1.7349(65)$ for the Ising and $D = 1.7626(66)$ for the XY model., Comment: 19 pages

Subjects: High Energy Physics - Lattice
Abstract: The compact Abelian Higgs model is simulated on a cubic lattice where it possesses vortex lines and pointlike magnetic monopoles as topological defects. The focus of this high-precision Monte Carlo study is on the vortex network, which is investigated by means of percolation observables. In the region of the phase diagram where the Higgs and confinement phases are separated by a first-order transition, it is shown that the vortices percolate right at the phase boundary, and that the first-order nature of the transition is reflected by the network. In the crossover region, where the phase boundary ceases to be first order, the vortices are shown to still percolate. In contrast to other observables, the percolation observables show finite-size scaling. The exponents characterizing the critical behavior of the vortices in this region are shown to fall in the random percolation universality class., Comment: 24 pages, 12 figures

Abstract: These notes give examples of how suitably defined geometrical objects encode in their fractal structure thermal critical behavior. The emphasis is on the two-dimensional Potts model for which two types of spin clusters can be defined. Whereas the Fortuin-Kasteleyn clusters describe the standard critical behavior, the geometrical clusters describe the tricritical behavior that arises when including vacant sites in the pure Potts model. Other phase transitions that allow for a geometrical description discussed in these notes include the superfluid phase transition and Bose-Einstein condensation., Comment: 10 pages,9 figures.

31. Spacetime Approach to Phase Transitions

Author: Janke, Wolfhard and Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics, High Energy Physics - Lattice
Abstract: In these notes, the application of Feynman's sum-over-paths approach to thermal phase transitions is discussed. The paradigm of such a spacetime approach to critical phenomena is provided by the high-temperature expansion of spin models. This expansion, known as the hopping expansion in the context of lattice field theory, yields a geometric description of the phase transition in these models, with the thermal critical exponents being determined by the fractal structure of the high-temperature graphs. The graphs percolate at the thermal critical point and can be studied using purely geometrical observables known from percolation theory. Besides the phase transition in spin models and in the closely related $\phi^4$ theory, other transitions discussed from this perspective include Bose-Einstein condensation, and the transitions in the Higgs model and the pure U(1) gauge theory., Comment: 59 pages, 18 figures.

Abstract: The three-dimensional lattice Higgs model with compact U(1) gauge symmetry and unit charge is investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The full model with fluctuating Higgs amplitude is simulated, and both energy as well as topological observables are measured. The data show a Higgs and a confined phase separated by a well-defined phase boundary, which is argued to be caused by proliferating vortices. For fixed gauge coupling, the phase boundary consists of a line of first-order phase transitions at small Higgs self-coupling, ending at a critical point. The phase boundary then continues as a Kertesz line across which thermodynamic quantities are nonsingular. Symmetry arguments are given to support these findings., Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: The fractal structure and critical properties of the high-temperature graphs of the two-dimensional O($N)$ model close to criticality are investigated. Based on Monte Carlo simulations, De Gennes' results for polymer chains, corresponding to the limit $N \to 0$, are generalized to random loops for arbitrary $-2 \leq N \leq 2$. The loops are also studied close to their tricritical point, known as the $\Theta$ point in the context of polymers, where they collapse. The corresponding fractal dimensions are argued to be in one-to-one correspondence with those at the critical point, leading to an analytic prediction for the magnetic scaling dimension at the O($N)$ tricritical point., Comment: 4 pages, no figures; 2nd version: Introduction rewritten, comparison of prediction with recent high-precision Monte Carlo data with figure included, references added

39. DNA Methylation of TLR4, VEGFA, and DEFA5 Is Associated With Necrotizing Enterocolitis in Preterm Infants

Subjects: neonatology, DNA methylation, epigenetics, preterm infant, necrotizing enterocolitis, Toll-like receptor 4, Pediatrics, RJ1-570
Abstract: Background: Epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation, may contribute to an increased susceptibility for developing necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm infants. We assessed DNA methylation in five NEC-associated genes, selected from literature: EPO, VEGFA, ENOS, DEFA5, and TLR4 in infants with NEC and controls.Methods: Observational cohort study including 24 preterm infants who developed NEC (≥Bell Stage IIA) and 45 matched controls. DNA was isolated from stool samples and methylation measured using pyrosequencing. We investigated differences in methylation prior to NEC compared with controls. Next, in NEC infants, we investigated methylation patterns long before, a short time before NEC onset, and after NEC.Results: Prior to NEC, only TLR4 CpG 2 methylation was increased in NEC infants (median = 75.4%, IQR = 71.3–83.8%) versus controls (median = 69.0%, IQR = 64.5–77.4%, p = 0.025). In NEC infants, VEGFA CpG 3 methylation was 0.8% long before NEC, increasing to 1.8% a short time before NEC and 2.0% after NEC (p = 0.011; p = 0.021, respectively). A similar pattern was found in DEFA5 CpG 1, which increased from 75.4 to 81.4% and remained 85.3% (p = 0.027; p = 0.019, respectively). These changes were not present for EPO, ENOS, and TLR4.Conclusion: Epigenetic changes of TLR4, VEGFA, and DEFA5 are present in NEC infants and can differ in relation to the time of NEC onset. Differences in DNA methylation of TLR4, VEGFA, and DEFA5 may influence gene expression and increase the risk for developing NEC. This study also demonstrates the use of human DNA extraction from stool samples as a novel non-invasive method for exploring the bowel of preterm infants and which can also be used for necrotizing enterocolitis patients.

40. Fractal Structure of Spin Clusters and Domain Walls in 2D Ising Model

Author: Janke, Wolfhard and Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics
Abstract: The fractal structure of spin clusters and their boundaries in the critical two-dimensional (2D) Ising model is investigated numerically. The fractal dimensions of these geometrical objects are estimated by means of Monte Carlo simulations on relatively small lattices through standard finite-size scaling. The obtained results are in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions and partly provide significant improvements in precision over existing numerical estimates., Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures; v2: minor changes in text, various plots are put in one figure

42. Geometrical vs. Fortuin-Kasteleyn Clusters in the Two-Dimensional $q$-State Potts Model

Author: Janke, Wolfhard and Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics
Abstract: The tricritical behavior of the two-dimensional $q$-state Potts model with vacancies for $1\leq q \leq4$ is argued to be encoded in the fractal structure of the geometrical spin clusters of the pure model. The close connection between the critical properties of the pure model and the tricritical properties of the diluted model is shown to be reflected in an intimate relation between Fortuin-Kasteleyn and geometrical clusters: The same transformation mapping the two critical regimes onto each other also maps the two cluster types onto each other. The map conserves the central charge, so that both cluster types are in the same universality class. The geometrical picture is supported by a Monte Carlo simulation of the high-temperature representation of the Ising model ($q=2$). In this new numerical approach, closed graph configurations are generated by means of a Metropolis update algorithm, involving single plaquettes., Comment: 23 pages, 11 figures, 2nd version: references added, introduction partly rewritten, error estimates improved

43. Zeta Function Regularization of Infrared Divergences in Bose-Einstein Condensation

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: The perturbative calculation of the effect of fluctuations in the nonzero frequency modes of a weakly interacting Bose gas on the condensation temperature is reviewed. These dynamic modes, discarded in most of the recent studies, have a temperature-induced energy gap that allows for a perturbative approach. The simple, yet powerful algorithm used to calculate the effect in a high-temperature expansion in conjunction with zeta function regularization of infrared divergences is explained in detail. The algorithm is shown to be reliable by demonstrating that it reproduces known results for a series of examples. With two-loop contributions properly included, the dynamic modes are seen not to lead to a shift in the condensation temperature, thus revising our earlier finding obtained at one loop., Comment: 17 pages, no figures Updated version includes two-loop contributions

44. Gauge-invariant critical exponents for the Ginzburg-Landau model

Author: Kleinert, H. and Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: The critical behavior of the Ginzburg-Landau model is described in a manifestly gauge-invariant manner. The gauge-invariant correlation-function exponent is computed to first order in the $4-d$ and $1/n$-expansion, and found to agree with the ordinary exponent obtained in the covariant gauge, with the parameter $\alpha=1-d$ in the gauge-fixing term $(\partial_\mu A_\mu)^2 /2 \alpha$., Comment: 4 pages, no figures

45. Entangled Vortices: Onsager's geometrical picture of superfluid phase transitions

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: Superfluid phase transitions are discussed from a geometrical perspective as envisaged by Onsager. The approach focuses on vortex loops which close to the critical temperature form a fluctuating vortex tangle. As the transition is approached, vortex lines proliferate and thereby disorder the superfluid state, so that the system reverts to the normal state. It is shown in detail that loop proliferation can be described in exactly the same way as cluster percolation. Picturing vortex loops as worldlines of bosons, with one of the spatial coordinates interpreted as the time coordinate, a quantitative description of vortex loops can be given. Applying a rotation (to superfluids) or a magnetic field (to superconductors), which suppresses the formation of vortex loops and instead can lead to open vortex lines along the field direction, is shown to be equivalent to taking the nonrelativistic limit. The nonrelativistic theory is the one often used to study vortex lattice melting and to describe the resulting entangled vortex liquid., Comment: 24 pages, 14 figures, write-up of lectures presented at the Kevo Winter School, Kevo, Finland, 20-26 April 2002

47. Effective Free Energy of Ginzburg-Landau Model

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: It is argued that the presence of a nonanalytic term in the effective potential of the Ginzburg-Landau model is immaterial as far as the order of the superconductor-normal phase transition is concerned. To achieve agreement with the renormalization group, the effective potential has to be extended to include derivative terms, which provide the theory with a low momentum scale which can be varied to probe the (possible) fixed point., Comment: 6 pages, contribution to the Festschrift dedicated to Professor Kleinert on the occasion of his 60th birthday

48. On the Ground State of Electron Gases at Negative Compressibility

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: Two- and three-dimensional electron gases with a uniform neutralizing background are studied at negative compressibility. Parametrized expressions for the dielectric function are used to access this strong-coupling regime, where the screened Coulomb potential becomes overall attractive for like charges. Closely examining these expressions reveals that the ground state with a periodic modulation of the charge density, albeit exponentially damped, replaces the homogeneous one at positive compressibility. The wavevector characterizing the new ground state depends on the density and is complex, having a positive imaginary part, as does the homogeneous ground state, and real part, as does the genuine charge density wave., Comment: 6 double-column pages, 2 figures. 2nd version is an extension of the 1st one, giving more details

49. Superconductor-Insulator Quantum Phase Transitions

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: In these lectures, superconductivity in impure thin films close to the absolute zero of temperature is discussed. The behavior as function of the applied magnetic field and the amount of impurities suggests the presence of a superconductor-insulator transition at zero temperature. The theory of superconductivity in the limit where all the electrons become tightly bound in pairs is used to explain the main characteristics of the transition. In that limit, where the theory becomes equivalent to a phase-only theory, electron pairs exist on either side of the transition. The presentation is pedagogical in nature and includes exercises as a learning aid for those new to the field., Comment: 36 pages, lectures presented at the XL Cracow School of Theoretical Physics, Zakopane, Poland, June 3-11, 2000, to appear in the proceedings as a special issue of Acta Physica Polonica B, see http://th-www.if.uj.edu.pl/acta/

50. Percolation, Bose-Einstein Condensation, and String Proliferation

Author: Schakel, Adriaan M. J.
Subjects: Condensed Matter
Abstract: The close analogy between cluster percolation and string proliferation in the context of critical phenomena is studied. Like clusters in percolation theory, closed strings, which can be either finite-temperature worldlines or topological line defects, are described by a distribution parametrized by only two exponents. On approaching the critical point, the string tension vanishes, and the loops proliferate thereby signalling the onset of Bose-Einstein condensation (in case of worldlines) or the disordering of the ordered state (in case of vortices). The ideal Bose gas with modified energy spectrum is used as a stepping stone to derive general expressions for the critical exponents in terms of the two exponents parameterizing the loop distribution near criticality., Comment: 12 pages, 3x2 figures
