The phenomena of excitation-induced suppression and amplification of broadband jet noise have been experimentally investigated in an effort to understand the mechanisms, especially in relation to the near flow-field large-scale structure dynamics. Suppression is found to occur only in jets at low speeds with laminar exit boundary layers, the optimum occurring for excitation at Stθ ≈ 0.017, where Stθ is the Strouhal number based on the initial shear-layer momentum thickness. The suppression mechanism is linked to an initial-condition effect on the large-scale structure dynamics. The interaction and evolution of laminar-like structures at low jet speeds produce more (normalized) noise and turbulence, compared to asymptotically lower levels at high speeds when the initial shear layer is no longer laminar. The effect of initial condition has been demonstrated by tripped versus untripped jet data. The excitation at Stθ ≈ 0.017 results in a quick roll-up and transition of the laminar shear-layer vortices, yielding coherent structures which are similar to those at high speeds. Thus, the broadband noise and turbulence are suppressed, but at the most to the asymptotically lower levels. When at the asymptotic level, the broadband jet noise can only be amplified by the excitation; the amplification is found to be maximum for excitation in the StD range of 0.65–0.85, StD being the Strouhal number based on the jet diameter. Excitation in this StD range also produces strongest vortexpairing activity. From spectral analysis of the flow-field and the near sound-pressure field, it is inferred that the pairing process induced by the excitation is at the origin of the broadband noise amplification.

In this paper we assess the importance as a noise source of the well-ordered large-scale structure of a jet. We propose two simple models of the structure: the first emphasizes those features in common with waves that initially grow on an unstable shear layer but eventually saturate and decay, while the second regards the abrupt pairing of eddies as the most significant event in the jet's development. Our models demonstrate the possibility that forcing at one frequency could increase the broad-band noise of a jet, though, for jets with supersonic eddy convection velocities, the sound propagating in the direction of the Mach angle retains the spectrum of the excitation field. These features are consistent with the available experimental data, and strongly support the view that the large-scale structure of jet turbulence provides the dominant contribution to jet noise.

Wie erlebt der Hörer Jazz? Bei dieser Frage geht es unter anderem um die Art und Weise, wie Jazz die Zeit des Hörens gestaltet. Ein an klassischer Musik geschultes Ohr erwartet von musikalischer Zeitgestaltung, den zeitlichen Rahmen, der durch Anfang und Ende gesetzt ist, von innen heraus zu strukturieren und neu zu konstituieren. Doch das ist keine Erwartung, die dem Jazz gerecht wird. Im Jazz wird der Moment nicht im Hinblick auf ein Ziel gestaltet, das von einer übergeordneten Struktur bereitgestellt wird, sondern so, dass er den Bewegungsimpuls zum nächsten Moment weiterträgt. Wie wirkt sich dieses Prinzip der Zeitgestaltung auf die musikalische Form im Großen aus? Der Aufsatz untersucht diese Frage anhand von Beispielen, an denen sich der Weg der Transformation von einer klassischen zu einer dem Jazz angemessenen Form gut nachverfolgen lässt.<br><br>How do listeners experience Jazz? This is a question also about how Jazz music organizes the listening time. A classically educated listener expects a piece of music to structure, unify and thereby re-constitute the externally given time frame. Such an expectation is foreign to Jazz music which doesn’t relate the moment to a goal provided by a large scale structure. Rather, one moment is carried on to the next, preserving the stimulus potentially ad infinitum. How does such an organization of time affect the large scale form? The paper tries to answer this question by analyzing two examples which permit to trace the transformation of a classical form into a form germane to Jazz music.

AbstractThis paper outlines the science case for line-intensity mapping with a space-borne instrument targeting the sub-millimeter (microwaves) to the far-infrared (FIR) wavelength range. Our goal is to observe and characterize the large-scale structure in the Universe from present times to the high redshift Epoch of Reionization. This is essential to constrain the cosmology of our Universe and form a better understanding of various mechanisms that drive galaxy formation and evolution. The proposed frequency range would make it possible to probe important metal cooling lines such as [CII] up to very high redshift as well as a large number of rotational lines of the CO molecule. These can be used to trace molecular gas and dust evolution and constrain the buildup in both the cosmic star formation rate density and the cosmic infrared background (CIB). Moreover, surveys at the highest frequencies will detect FIR lines which are used as diagnostics of galaxies and AGN. Tomography of these lines over a wide redshift range will enable invaluable measurements of the cosmic expansion history at epochs inaccessible to other methods, competitive constraints on the parameters of the standard model of cosmology, and numerous tests of dark matter, dark energy, modified gravity and inflation. To reach these goals, large-scale structure must be mapped over a wide range in frequency to trace its time evolution and the surveyed area needs to be very large to beat cosmic variance. Only a space-borne mission can properly meet these requirements.

ABSTRACT We investigate higher order symplectic integration strategies within Bayesian cosmic density field reconstruction methods. In particular, we study the fourth-order discretization of Hamiltonian equations of motion (EoM). This is achieved by recursively applying the basic second-order leap-frog scheme (considering the single evaluation of the EoM) in a combination of even numbers of forward time integration steps with a single intermediate backward step. This largely reduces the number of evaluations and random gradient computations, as required in the usual second-order case for high-dimensional cases. We restrict this study to the lognormal-Poisson model, applied to a full volume halo catalogue in real space on a cubical mesh of 1250 h−1 Mpc side and 2563 cells. Hence, we neglect selection effects, redshift space distortions, and displacements. We note that those observational and cosmic evolution effects can be accounted for in subsequent Gibbs-sampling steps within the COSMIC BIRTH algorithm. We find that going from the usual second to fourth order in the leap-frog scheme shortens the burn-in phase by a factor of at least ∼30. This implies that 75–90 independent samples are obtained while the fastest second-order method converges. After convergence, the correlation lengths indicate an improvement factor of about 3.0 fewer gradient computations for meshes of 2563 cells. In the considered cosmological scenario, the traditional leap-frog scheme turns out to outperform higher order integration schemes only when considering lower dimensional problems, e.g. meshes with 643 cells. This gain in computational efficiency can help to go towards a full Bayesian analysis of the cosmological large-scale structure for upcoming galaxy surveys.
