Mode A

We comment briefly on relations between the elastic and inelastic cross-sections valid for the shadow and reflective modes of the elastic scattering. Those are based on the unitarity arguments. It is shown that the redistribution of the probabilities of the elastic and inelastic interactions (the form of the inelastic overlap function becomes peripheral) under the reflective scattering mode can lead to increasing ratio of [Formula: see text] at the LHC energies. In the shadow scattering mode, the mechanism of this increase is a different one, since the impact parameter dependence of the inelastic interactions probability is central in this mode. A short notice is also given on the slope parameter and the leading contributions to its energy dependence in both modes.

AbstractIn this study, we characterized the dynamics and analyzed the degree of synchronization of the time series of daily closing prices and volumes in US$ of three cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin, over the period September 1,2015–March 31, 2020. Time series were first mapped into a complex network by the horizontal visibility algorithm in order to revel the structure of their temporal characters and dynamics. Then, the synchrony of the time series was investigated to determine the possibility that the cryptocurrencies under study co-bubble simultaneously. Findings reveal similar complex structures for the three virtual currencies in terms of number and internal composition of communities. To the aim of our analysis, such result proves that price and volume dynamics of the cryptocurrencies were characterized by cyclical patterns of similar wavelength and amplitude over the time period considered. Yet, the value of the slope parameter associated with the exponential distributions fitted to the data suggests a higher stability and predictability for Bitcoin and Litecoin than for Ethereum. The study of synchrony between the time series investigated displayed a different degree of synchronization between the three cryptocurrencies before and after a collapse event. These results could be of interest for investors who might prefer to switch from one cryptocurrency to another to exploit the potential opportunities of profit generated by the dynamics of price and volumes in the market of virtual currencies.

Abstract. Detailed measurements of ice crystals in cirrus clouds were used to compare with results from the Community Atmospheric Model Version 5 (CAM5) global climate model. The observations are from two different field campaigns with contrasting conditions: Atmospheric Radiation Measurements Spring Cloud Intensive Operational Period in 2000 (ARM-IOP), which was characterized primarily by midlatitude frontal clouds and cirrus, and Tropical Composition, Cloud and Climate Coupling (TC4), which was dominated by anvil cirrus. Results show that the model typically overestimates the slope parameter of the exponential size distributions of cloud ice and snow, while the variation with temperature (height) is comparable. The model also overestimates the ice/snow number concentration (0th moment of the size distribution) and underestimates higher moments (2nd through 5th), but compares well with observations for the 1st moment. Overall the model shows better agreement with observations for TC4 than for ARM-IOP in regards to the moments. The mass-weighted terminal fallspeed is lower in the model compared to observations for both ARM-IOP and TC4, which is partly due to the overestimation of the size distribution slope parameter. Sensitivity tests with modification of the threshold size for cloud ice to snow autoconversion (Dcs) do not show noticeable improvement in modeled moments, slope parameter and mass weighed fallspeed compared to observations. Further, there is considerable sensitivity of the cloud radiative forcing to Dcs, consistent with previous studies, but no value of Dcs improves modeled cloud radiative forcing compared to measurements. Since the autoconversion of cloud ice to snow using the threshold size Dcs has little physical basis, future improvement to combine cloud ice and snow into a single category, eliminating the need for autoconversion, is suggested.

The therapeutic efficacy of atropine sulfate/pralidoxime chloride (ATR/2-PAM) treatment therapy and physostigmine (PHY) pretreatment therapy was evaluated in soman-challenged guinea pigs. Response surface analysis (RSM) of treatment efficacy indicated that the optimal ATR/2-PAM dose combination varied as a function of both the soman (GD) challenge level and the PHY pretreatment dose. Efficacy was, therefore, evaluated for varying PHY pretreatment doses in combination with the appropriate optimal ATR/2-PAM treatment (as determined by RSM for each soman challenge dose and PHY dose evaluated). The response surfaces depicting the effects (i.e., probability of survival) of ATR/2-PAM combinations at fixed levels of PHY and GD are presented, and confidence regions and point estimates for optimal ATR/2-PAM treatment combination are included. It was estimated that with optimal therapy a protective ratio (PR) of 6 can be observed. Comparisons were made between the use of PHY/ATR/2-PAM as presented here and the use of PYR/ATR/2-PAM, as discussed by Jones et al.(1) Both studies showed a strong positive (r ≥ 0.98) relationship between dose and the PR. However, the estimated slope parameter for PHY was significantly larger ( P < 0.001) than the slope parameter for pyridostigmine (PYR). This difference in slopes may indicate different mechanisms of action for PYR and PHY.

We study the spectral function of holographic fermions with Pauli term. We find the [Formula: see text]-dependent instability signaled by the tachyonic spectrum ([Formula: see text]-gap) from the [Formula: see text] regime where unitarity is violated. We suggest that this is the instability toward the charge density wave (CDW) based on the similarity of the unitarity violation in conformal field theory (CFT) and the nesting Fermi surface phenomena in weakly interaction system: both of them give divergent enhancement of degree of freedom.
