Relativistic correction to the r-mode frequency in light of multi-messenger constraints
No full textR-mode oscillations of rotating neutron stars are promising candidates for continuous gravitational wave (GW) observations. The r-mode frequencies for slowly rotating Newtonian stars are well-known and independent of the equation of state (EOS) but for neutron stars, several mechanisms can alter the r-mode frequency of which the relativistic correction is dominant and relevant for most of the neutron stars. The most sensitive searches for continuous GWs are those for known pulsars for which GW frequencies are in targeted narrow frequency bands of few Hz. In this study, we investigate the effect of several state-of-the-art multi-messenger constraints on the r-mode frequency for relativistic, slowly rotating, barotropic stars. Imposing these recent constraints on the EOS, we find that the r-mode frequency range is slightly higher from the previous study and the narrow band frequency range can increase upto 8-25% for the most promising candidate PSR J0537-6910 depending on the range of compactness. We also derive universal relations between r-mode frequency and dimensionless tidal deformability which can be used to estimate the dynamical tide of the r-mode resonant excitation during the inspiral signal. These results can be used to construct the parameter space for r-mode searches in gravitational wave data and also constrain the nuclear equation of state following a successful r-mode detection
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Theory of collective motion in liquids
No full textThe approximation for the correlation function G(r,r',t) appearing in the theory of Hubbard and Beeby (1969) has been examined and found to be exact for short times. Further, it has been shown that the recent paper by Tewari and Tewari (1975) is erroneous and misleading, and that their results are greatly inferior to those obtained by Pathak and Bansal, (1973)
UQ_SA_NCAR_CAM5
No full textThis folder is consist of four sub-folder (namely, DJF, JJA, ANN, and Script). The DJF, JJA and ANN folder contain NCAR-CAM5 simulated dataset, used for uncertainty quantification based cloud parameterization sensitivity analysis. The data sub-folder DJF, JJA, and ANN can be read as the December – February, June – August, and the annual mean of simulated data. The script sub-folder contains the script required to analyse the sensitivity analysis.
Note: The data and scripts in sub-folders are the part of my recently submitted manuscript titled “Uncertainty Quantification Based Cloud Parameterization Sensitivity Analysis in the NCAR Community Atmosphere Model” to the Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems (JAMES)
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
Get PDFBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
On Hankel Transformable Spaces and a Cauchy Problem
No full textThe classical Hankel transform of a conventional function ϕ on (0, ∞) defined formally bywas extended by Zemanian [21-23] to certain generalized functions of one dimension. Koh [9, 10] extended the work of [21] to n-dimensions, and that of [22] to arbitrary real values of μ. Motivated from the work of Gelfand and Shilov [6], Lee [11] introduced spaces of type Hμ and studied their Hankel transforms. The results of Lee [11] and Zemanian [21] are special cases of recent results obtained by the author and Pandey [14]. The aforesaid extensions are accomplished by using the so-called adjoint method of extending integral transforms to generalized functions. Dube and Pandey [2], Pathak and Pandey [15, 16] applied a more direct method, the so-called kernel method, for extending the Hankel and other related transforms.

Quenching, Mergers, and Age Profiles for z = 2 Galaxies in IllustrisTNG
Get PDFUsing the IllustrisTNG cosmological galaxy formation simulations, we analyze the physical properties of young quiescent galaxies at z = 2 with stellar masses above 1010.5 M o ̇. This key population provides an unaltered probe into the evolution of galaxies from star-forming to quiescent, and has been recently targeted by several observational studies. Young quiescent galaxies in the simulations do not appear unusually compact, in tension with observations, but they show unique age profiles that are qualitatively consistent with the observed color gradients. In particular, more than half of the simulated young quiescent galaxies show positive age gradients due to recent intense central starbursts, which are triggered by significant mergers. Yet, there is a sizable population of recently quenched galaxies without significant mergers and with flat age profiles. Our results suggest that mergers play a fundamental role in structural transformation, but are not the only available pathway to quench a z = 2 galaxy
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
