Title: Janus and RG-interfaces in minimal 3d gauged supergravity
In this paper, we find solutions of minimal [Formula: see text] gauged supergravity corresponding to Janus and RG-flow interfaces. We use holography to calculate symmetric and interface entanglement entropy as well as reflection coefficients and confirm that a recently proposed1inequality involving these quantities is satisfied for the solutions found here.  more » « less

    Aims.Recently, there have been reports of various types of degeneracies in the interpretation of planetary signals induced by planetary caustics. In this work we check whether such degeneracies persist in the case of well-covered signals by analyzing the lensing event KMT-2021-BLG-1150, the light curve of which exhibits a densely and continuously covered short-term anomaly. Methods.In order to identify degenerate solutions, we thoroughly investigated the parameter space by conducting dense grid searches for the lensing parameters. We then checked the severity of the degeneracy among the identified solutions. Results.We identify a pair of planetary solutions resulting from the well-known inner-outer degeneracy, and find that interpreting the anomaly is not subject to any degeneracy other than the inner-outer degeneracy. The measured parameters of the planet separation (normalized to the Einstein radius) and mass ratio between the lens components are (s,q)in~ (1.297, 1.10 × 10−3) for the inner solution and (s,q)out~ (1.242, 1.15 × 10−3) for the outer solution. According to a Bayesian estimation, the lens is a planetary system consisting of a planet with a massMp= 0.88−0.36+0.38Mjand its host with a massMh= 0.73−0.30+0.32M⊙lying toward the Galactic center at a distanceDL= 3.8−1.2+1.3kpc. By conducting analyses using mock data sets prepared to mimic those obtained with data gaps and under various observational cadences, we find that gaps in data can result in various degenerate solutions, while the observational cadence does not pose a serious degeneracy problem as long as the anomaly feature can be delineated.

    Aims. We investigate the 2023 season data from high-cadence microlensing surveys with the aim of detecting partially covered shortterm signals and revealing their underlying astrophysical origins. Through this analysis, we ascertain that the signals observed in the lensing events KMT-2023-BLG-0416, KMT-2023-BLG-1454, and KMT-2023-BLG-1642 are of planetary origin. Methods. Considering the potential degeneracy caused by the partial coverage of signals, we thoroughly investigate the lensing-parameter plane. In the case of KMT-2023-BLG-0416, we have identified two solution sets, one with a planet-to-host mass ratio ofq~ 10−2and the other withq~ 6 × 10−5, within each of which there are two local solutions emerging due to the inner-outer degeneracy. For KMT-2023-BLG-1454, we discern four local solutions featuring mass ratios ofq~ (1.7−4.3) × 10−3. When it comes to KMT-2023-BLG-1642, we identified two locals withq~ (6 − 10) × 10−3resulting from the inner-outer degeneracy. Results. We estimate the physical lens parameters by conducting Bayesian analyses based on the event time scale and Einstein radius. For KMT-2023-BLG-0416L, the host mass is ~0.6M⊙, and the planet mass is ~(6.1−6.7)MJaccording to one set of solutions and ~0.04MJaccording to the other set of solutions. KMT-2023-BLG-1454Lb has a mass roughly half that of Jupiter, while KMT-2023-BLG-1646Lb has a mass in the range of between 1.1 to 1.3 times that of Jupiter, classifying them both as giant planets orbiting mid M-dwarf host stars with masses ranging from 0.13 to 0.17 solar masses.

    We prove the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of minimizers of a polyconvex functional in two and three dimensions, which corresponds to theH1-projection of measure-preserving maps. Our result introduces a new criteria on the uniqueness of the minimizer, based on the smallness of the lagrange multiplier. No estimate on the second derivatives of the pressure is needed to get a unique global minimizer. As an application, we construct a minimizing movement scheme to constructLr-solutions of the Navier–Stokes equation (NSE) for a short time interval.

    We present the first ambient mechanosynthesis of 16 flexible covalent organic frameworks (COFs) within an hour. Notably, one representative COF exhibited a high iodine uptake capacity of ∼4.3 g g−1from aqueous solutions and 5.97 g g−1from vapor.

    Aims.We aim to investigate the nature of the short-term anomaly that appears in the lensing light curve of KMT-2023-BLG-1866. The anomaly was only partly covered due to its short duration of less than a day, coupled with cloudy weather conditions and a restricted nighttime duration. Methods.Considering the intricacy of interpreting partially covered signals, we thoroughly explored all potential degenerate solutions. Through this process, we identified three planetary scenarios that account for the observed anomaly equally well. These scenarios are characterized by the specific planetary parameters: (s, q)inner= [0.9740 ± 0.0083, (2.46 ± 1.07) × 10−5], (s, q)intermediate= [0.9779 ± 0.0017, (1.56 ± 0.25) × 10−5], and (s, q)outer= [0.9894 ± 0.0107, (2.31 ± 1.29) × 10−5], wheresandqdenote the projected separation (scaled to the Einstein radius) and mass ratio between the planet and its host, respectively. We identify that the ambiguity between the inner and outer solutions stems from the inner-outer degeneracy, while the similarity between the intermediate solution and the others is due to an accidental degeneracy caused by incomplete anomaly coverage. Results.Through Bayesian analysis utilizing the constraints derived from measured lensing observables and blending flux, our estimation indicates that the lens system comprises a very-low-mass planet orbiting an early M-type star situated approximately (6.2–6.5) kpc from Earth in terms of median posterior values for the different solutions. The median mass of the planet host is in the range of (0.48–0.51)M⊙, and that of the planet’s mass spans a range of (2.6–4.0)ME, varying across different solutions. The detection of KMT-2023-BLG-1866Lb signifies the extension of the lensing surveys to very-low-mass planets that have been difficult to detect in earlier surveys.
