Regardless of that information, though, my original point was that Stephen Elliot's case is well explained and acuriousmind have done the necessary procedures, unlike some moderators in MSE
(which is not as trivial for MSE given that their close reasons don't emphasize as much to non mainstream and that non mainstream maths are harder to spot if one does not try to do cliche pseudomaths things like "I have proved the riemannian hypothesis" which pop up enough to be an in house joke)
Sometimes when reading the literature, came across small interesting findings like these but it might be too early too connect the dots on how it is relevant to the larger picture
Wikipedia article on factors affecting SFE says:
Another factor that has a significant effect on the SFE of a material and is very interrelated with alloy content is the e/a ratio, or the ratio of valence electrons to atoms. Thornton showed this in 1962 by plotting the e/a ratio vs SFE for a ...
I think emilo might be seeing they look like excels, well known to be not good at making publishable graphs, though I am not sure if my guess is correct
@EmilioPisanty computers love me and work perfectly in my presence. The number of times friends have asked me for help with their computer only to find it works fine when they try and demonstrate the fault :-)
@Secret actually that was me asking, not Secret... and wow, those are some impressive graphics! May I ask what tool you used? Also, just curious: Could these LES phenomena be described using some kind of quasiparticle model? I'd think not since you are in the continuum states, but then it sounds like there's some odd stuff going on that I'm sure you get into in the paper...
Ah... that was Secret replying? Now I'm nicely gummed up...
what, are you seriously cooling your PC with liquid nitrogen? That's.... unheard of, though computers are not flesh they should be fine in liquid nitrogen I guess...
@EmilioPisanty "quasiparticle" is a stretch question at best, but I tend to wonder about that option whenever an unexpected peaks or persistent effect show ups. You've got some really interesting interactions in play there in any case.
http://episanty.github.io/Slalom-in-complex-time/ I am not sure if there are any significance to figure S4 that the two saddle points are so close together, almost touching
@EmilioPisanty electrons in semiconductors are not really electrons: They are quasiparticles that are more symmetric with holes than with free electrons. Excitons, same thing. So... I'd say that just having a single particle alone doesn't preclude quasi. But again, you are continuum, so quantization seems iffy...
The pennant coralfish (Heniochus acuminatus), also known as the longfin bannerfish, reef bannerfish or coachman, is a species of fish belonging to the Chaetodontidae family, native from the Indo-Pacific area.
== Description ==
The reef bannerfish is a small-sized fish that can reach a maximum length of 25 cm. However, the average size generally observed in the nature oscillates around 15 cm.
Its body is compressed laterally, the first rays of its dorsal fin stretch in a long white filament. The background color of its body is white with two large black diagonal bands. Beyond the second black stripe...
Hopefully my own research can generate pretty looking surfaces. So far I only got a deep and steep valley on a rather flat surface with explanation to be found in the literature
Given $k$ vector spaces $V_1,\dots,V_k$ one can define the tensor product $V_1\otimes\cdots \otimes V_k$ by means of the universal property: it allows any multilinear map $g : V_1\times\cdots\times V_k\to W$ to be written as
$$g(v_1,\dots,v_k)=f(v_1\otimes\cdots\otimes v_k)$$
for a linear $f$. ...
I have always heard an expression like $\ln (x^2)$ pronounced aloud as "ell-enn ex squared". That is, the name of the function $\ln$ is read aloud as a two-letter abbreviation. However, I recently came across a Youtube video in which the speaker consistently pronounces $\ln$ as if it were a sin...
@KyleKanos The problem with pronouncing it "log" (which often I do) is the ambiguity with $\log_{10} (x)$ in the minds of people who haven't yet fully absorbed the calculus mindset (or with $\log_2{x}$ for those used to computer science).
However, many of the properties of the function don't depend on the base so the ambiguity is not always important unless you are about to compare calculation.
For that latter case I read it "natural log" to be clear.
In the context of statistical field or quantum field theory, one encounters so called generating function(al) for connected correlations, aka the following function(al):
$$ W(J) = \ln (Z(J))$$
$$ Z(J) = \int \mathcal{D} \phi e^{-S[\phi]}$$
From a probabilistic standpoint, Z(J) is just the mo...
In a paper on continuous chemical reaction networks (CCRNs)$^1$ it discusses an algorithm for reaching different states using various chemical reactions. I have some questions about a line of the algorithm and what it means given the authors' notation.
