Tunable magnetically induced transparency spectra in magnon-magnon coupled Y3Fe5O12/permalloy bilayers

Hybrid magnonic systems host a variety of characteristic quantum phenomena such as the magnetically-induced transparency (MIT) and Purcell effect, which are considered useful for future coherent quantum information processing. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate a tunable MIT effect in the Y3Fe5O12(YIG)/Permalloy(Py) magnon-magnon coupled system via changing the magnetic field orientations. By probing the magneto-optic effects of Py and YIG, we identify clear features of MIT spectra induced by the mode hybridization between the uniform mode of Py and the perpendicular standing spin-wave modes of YIG. By changing the external magnetic field orientations, we observe a tunable coupling strength between the YIG's spin-wave modes and the Py's uniform mode, upon the application of an out-of-plane magnetic field. This observation is theoretically interpreted by a geometrical consideration of the Py and YIG magnetization under the oblique magnetic field even at a constant interfacial exchange coupling. Our findings show high promise for investigating tunable coherent phenomena with hybrid magnonic platforms.

Learning invariance preserving moment closure model for Boltzmann-BGK equation

As one of the main governing equations in kinetic theory, the Boltzmann equation is widely utilized in aerospace, microscopic flow, etc. Its high-resolution simulation is crucial in these related areas. However, due to the high dimensionality of the Boltzmann equation, high-resolution simulations are often difficult to achieve numerically. The moment method which was first proposed by Grad is among the popular numerical methods to achieve efficient high-resolution simulations. We can derive the governing equations in the moment method by taking moments on both sides of the Boltzmann equation, which effectively reduces the dimensionality of the problem. However, one of the main challenges is that it leads to an unclosed moment system, and closure is needed to obtain a closed moment system. It is truly an art in designing closures for moment systems and has been a significant research field in kinetic theory. Other than the traditional human designs of closures, the machine learning-based approach has attracted much attention lately in Han et al. and Huang et al. In this work, we propose a machine learning-based method to derive a moment closure model for the Boltzmann-BGK equation. In particular, the closure relation is approximated by a carefully designed deep neural network that possesses desirable physical invariances, i.e., the Galilean invariance, reflecting invariance, and scaling invariance, inherited from the original Boltzmann-BGK equation and playing an important role in the correct simulation of the Boltzmann equation. Numerical simulations on the 1D-1D examples including the smooth and discontinuous initial condition problems, Sod shock tube problem, the shock structure problems, and the 1D-3D examples including the smooth and discontinuous problems demonstrate satisfactory numerical performances of the proposed invariance preserving neural closure method.

The Nelson-Seiberg theorem generalized with nonpolynomial superpotentials

The Nelson-Seiberg theorem relates R-symmetries to F-term supersymmetry breaking, and provides a guiding rule for new physics model building beyond the Standard Model. A revision of the theorem gives a necessary and sufficient condition to supersymmetry breaking in models with polynomial superpotentials. This work revisits the theorem to include models with nonpolynomial superpotentials. With a generic R-symmetric superpotential, a singularity at the origin of the field space implies both R-symmetry breaking and supersymmetry breaking. We give a generalized necessary and sufficient condition for supersymmetry breaking which applies to both perturbative and nonperturbative models.

Race, Ethnicity and National Origin-based Discrimination in Social Media and Hate Crimes Across 100 U.S. Cities

We study malicious online content via a specific type of hate speech: race, ethnicity and national-origin based discrimination in social media, alongside hate crimes motivated by those characteristics, in 100 cities across the United States. We develop a spatially-diverse training dataset and classification pipeline to delineate targeted and self-narration of discrimination on social media, accounting for language across geographies. Controlling for census parameters, we find that the proportion of discrimination that is targeted is associated with the number of hate crimes. Finally, we explore the linguistic features of discrimination Tweets in relation to hate crimes by city, features used by users who Tweet different amounts of discrimination, and features of discrimination compared to non-discrimination Tweets. Findings from this spatial study can inform future studies of how discrimination in physical and virtual worlds vary by place, or how physical and virtual world discrimination may synergize.
