Traces and shards of self-injury: Strange accounting with “Author X”
No full textIn this strange account autoethnography, three or four authors explore their lived experiences with self-injury. Strange accounting is both a post-modern style of text, and a method for keeping identities concealed when risks and secrets are in play. Author X, a post-modern place-keeper for an anonymous author who may or may not have contributed to this manuscript, introduces a new dimension and layer of concealment. With Author X in-play and under erasure, the reader will never be sure if there were three or four authors on this manuscript. Through strange accounting, a post-structuralist/postmodernist frame will be applied to understanding the self-injury experience. We frame self-injury as a social practice and, for some, an everyday norm, while remaining acutely aware of the stigma surrounding the topic of self-injury. Each of us, coupled with Author X, provide the others cover to trace stories of self-injury through the literature, our flesh, and our lives
Multiple solutions for the non-Abelian Chern–Simons–Higgs vortex equations
No full textIn this paper we study the existence of multiple solutions for the non-Abelian Chem-Simons-Higgs (N x N)-system:Delta u(i) = lambda(Sigma(N)(j=1) Sigma(N)(k=1) K(kj)K(ji)e(uj)e(uk) - Sigma(N)(j=1) k(ji)e(uj)) + 4 pi Sigma(ni)(j=1) delta(pij), i=1, . . . , N;over a doubly periodic domain Omega, with coupling matrix K given by the Cartan matrix of SU(N + 1), (see (1.2) below). Here, lambda > 0 is the coupling parameter, delta(p )is the Dirac measure with pole at p and n(i) is an element of N, for i = 1,...,N. When N = 1, 2 many results are now available for the periodic solvability of such system and provide the existence of different classes of solutions known as: topological, non-topological, mixed and blow-up type. On the contrary for N >= 3, only recently in [27] the authors managed to obtain the existence of one doubly periodic solution via a minimization procedure, in the spirit of [46]. Our main contribution in this paper is to show (as in [46]) that actually the given system admits a second doubly periodic solutions of "Mountain-pass" type, provided that 3 <= N <= 5. Note that the existence of multiple solutions is relevant from the physical point of view. Indeed, it implies the co-existence of different non-Abelian Chem-Simons condensates sharing the same set (assigned component-wise) of vortex points, energy and fluxes. The main difficulty to overcome is to attain a "compactness" property encompassed by the so-called Palais-Smale condition for the corresponding "action" functional, whose validity remains still open for N >= 6.

Liquid-to-glass transition in bulk glass-forming Cu60Ti20Zr20 alloy by molecular dynamics simulations
No full textWe report results from molecular dynamics studies concerning the microscopic structure and dynamics of the ternary, bulk metallic glass-forming Cu60Ti20Zr20 alloy. In detail we consider the partial radial distribution functions, nearest-neighbor numbers, specific heat, simulated glass temperature, diffusion coefficients, and incoherent intermediate scattering function (ISF). The applied atomic model reproduces well experimental x-ray data of the total radial distribution function. It provides for Cu60Ti20Zr20 a structure with marked intermediate-range order. The ISF is analyzed within an extension of mode-coupling theory, where the effective memory kernel is evaluated from the Laplace transform of the ISF. The dynamics of the system fulfills in most respects the predictions of mode-coupling theory (MCT), up to an absence of the algebraic t(-a) decay in the early beta range. Comparison with the calculated memory kernel shows that this absence can be traced back to deviations of the kernel from its approximate form analyzed in MCT. As by-product, our investigation provides a method to reconstruct around the critical temperature major parts of the memory kernel from lambda and the plateau value f(c) of the ISF, and it indicates why the critical dynamics predicted by mode-coupling theory can be observed in a temperature interval of more than 500 K
The continuity equation on metric measure spaces
No full textAim of this paper is to show that it makes sense to write the continuity equation on a metric measure space (X,d,m) and that absolutely continuous curves (\mu_t) w.r.t. the distance W_2 can be completely characterized as solutions of the continuity equation itself, provided we impose the condition μ_t ≤ Cm for every t and some C > 0

A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
No full textSpectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1
