On Game Formats and Chu Spaces
Full text linkIt is argued that virtually all coalitional, strategic and extensive game formats as currently employed in the extant game-theoretic literature may be presented in a natural way as discrete nonfull or even-under a suitable choice of morphisms- as full subcategories of Chu (Poset 2).
Bandwidth of Singular Plasmonic Resonators in Relation to the Chu Limit
No full textPlasmonic nanostructures with singular geometries can exhibit a broadband scattering response that at first glance appears to violate the lower bounds for the radiation quality (Q) factor of small radiators, known as the Chu limit. Here we explore this apparent contradiction, investigating the Q factor of the resonant modes supported by two nearly touching cylinders, and analyze how their fractional bandwidth fares in relation to the Chu limit. We first derive lower bounds for the radiation Q factors of two-dimensional objects of an arbitrary cross-section. We then discuss the dissipation and radiation Q factors associated with the plasmonic resonances of a cylinder dimer as a function of its gap size. We show that the radiation Q factor is always larger than the minimum Q and, as long as the peaks in the scattering spectrum are well separated, their bandwidth is equal to the inverse of their Q factor. In the limit of touching cylinders, the resonance spectra transition from discrete to a continuum around an accumulation point, yielding a broadband response for any finite level of material loss. Within any given frequency interval, the response is the result of a multitude of plasmon resonances, each individually obeying the Chu limit. Nevertheless, the connection between the Q factor and the overall bandwidth of the scattering response is lost. Our study sheds light onto the exotic resonant phenomena emerging when plasmonic materials are shaped in singular geometries, and outlines their opportunities and limitations for nanophotonics

Chonocephalus forcipulus Liu & Chu 2016, sp. nov.
No full textChonocephalus forcipulus sp. nov. (Figs 1–5, 11–12) Description. Male. Body generally brown with a pale abdominal venter. Frons brown with a darker ocellar triangle. Only antial and anterolateral bristles clearly differentiated. Postpedicel brown and rounded. Palp strong and about 2 times as long as its greatest breadth. Thorax brownish, dark on top. Scutellum with four fine bristles. Three hairs on upper part of posterior margin of mesopleuron. Legs brown, but all tarsi paler. Front tarsus with a posterodorsal hair palisade on tarsomere 1–4 and tarsomeres 4 and 5 almost same in length. Mid tibia uniformly brown. Hind femur normal and without modification. Wing 1.1–1.2 mm long. Costal index 0.52. Thick veins light brown with tip of costa and vein Rs darker. Thin veins grayish brown and membrane tinged brownish gray. Vein Rs with a vesicle which extends beyond tip of costa. Halter brown. Abdomen with tergites I–VI brown, with only a few short hairs, almost confined to posterior margins. Venter pale grayish with minute, sparse, pale hairs on segments 3–6. Abdominal tergites with fine hairs, little longer in tergites VI. Venter hairs smaller and finer. Hypopygium mainly brown with long hairs, especially in cercus. Left side of epandrium with a dark process before apex, left surstylus and the modified spine lack. Right side of epandrium with a strong process. Bridge strongly developed, dark and M-shaped. Left gonopod long with two bristles and right one lack. Two lobes of hypandrium long, pointed and forceps-shaped. Material examined. Holotype. ♂, China, Tibet, Motuo (29.65 N, 95.48 E; elev. 2 118 m), 3 August 2013, leg. Jianfeng Wang. Paratype. 1♂, same data as the holotype. Distribution. China (Hainan). Etymology. The specific epithet refers to forceps-shaped lobes of hypandrium. Remarks. The species is easily distinguished from other species of the genus by the forceps-shaped lobes of hypandrium, the M-shaped bridge of epandrium and the brown mid tibia. In the key of Disney (2002), the species runs to couplets 3 to C. heymoni. In the key of Disney (2005, 2008) it runs separately to 12 and 25, both to C. heymonsi and C. dominicanus. In the key of Disney (2015), it runs to 33 to C. heymonsi and C. gonocurvatus. However, the new species is distinguished from C. heymonsi and C. dominicanus by the details of hypandrial lobes, right gonopod and the bridge. It is also differed from C. gonocurvatus by the details of anterior process of epandrium and right gonopod of hypandrium.Published as part of Liu, Guangchun & Chu, Mengying, 2016, First record of the scuttle fly genus Chonocephalus Wandolleck (Diptera: Phoridae) from China, with description of a new species, pp. 117-121 in Zoological Systematics 41 (1) on page 119, DOI: 10.11865/zs.201609, http://zenodo.org/record/536476
Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
Full text linkThe prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

Cross correlations of Frank sequences and Chu Sequences.
Full text linkSets of Frank sequences and Chu sequences are two classes of polyphase sequence with ideal periodic autocorrelation functions, which at the same time have optimum crosscorrelation functions. The authors consider the crosscorrelations of sets of combined Frank/Chu sequences, which contain a larger number of sequences than either of the two constituent sets. It is shown analytically that the crosscorrelations are similar to those of the original sets with one exception, while the autocorrelations remain perfectly impulsiv
