The updated DESGW processing pipeline for the third LIGO/VIRGO observing run

The DESGW group seeks to identify electromagnetic counterpartsof gravitational wave events seen by the LIGO-VIRGO network, such as thoseexpected from binary neutron star mergers or neutron star- black hole mergers.DESGW was active throughout the first two LIGO observing seasons, followingup several binary black hole mergers and the first binary neutron star merger,GW170817. We describe the modifications to the observing strategy generationand image processing pipeline between the second (ending in August 2017)and third (beginning in April 2019) LIGO observing seasons. The modifica-tions include a more robust observing strategy generator, further parallelizationof the image reduction software and dierence imaging processing pipeline,data transfer streamlining, and a web page listing identified counterpart candi-dates that updates in real time. Taken together, the additional parallelizationsteps enable us to identify potential electromagnetic counterparts within fullycalibrated search images in less than one hour, compared to the 3-5 hours itwould typically take during the first two seasons. These performance improve-ments are critical to the entire EM followup community, as rapid identification(or rejection) of candidates enables detailed spectroscopic followup by multipleinstruments as soon as possible, leading to more information about the environ-ment immediately following such gravitational wave events.

Measurement of the cross section of top quark pairs produced in association with a Photon in Lepton +Jets events at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV with full Run II CMS data

The inclusive production cross section of top quark pairs in association with a photon is measured in proton-proton collisions at the LHC with 13 TeV energy using the full RunII data collected by CMS in 2016, 2017, and 2018 with a total corresponding integrated luminosity of 137 fb$^{-1}$. The relative fraction of t$ \bar{t} \gamma$ events normalized to inclusive t$ \bar{t}$ production is measured. The cross section measurement provides important information about the electromagnetic coupling of the standard model top quark and is sensitive to physics beyond the standard model. The analysis is carried out in the in semileptonic decay channel with a well isolated high P$ \_{T}$ lepton (electron and muon), at least four jets out of which at least one must be b-tagged, and an isolated photon. Photons may be emitted from initial state radiation, top quarks, and decay products of top quarks. The fiducial phase space with a photon of transverse momentum $ \ge$ 20 GeV and j\x11$ \eta$ <1.4441 is used. A simultaneous likelihood fit of control regions with the signal region is done to constraint the backgrounds and to extract the t$ \bar{t} \gamma$ cross section. The measurement of the ratio of t$ \bar{t} \gamma$ to t$ \bar{t}$ is $0.02055 \pm 0.00099$ (syst.) $ \pm 0.00099$ (stat.) in $e$ channel , 0.02156 $ \pm$ 0.00068 (syst.) $ \pm$ 0.00068 (stat.) in $ \mu$ channel , and 0.02203 $ \pm$ 0.00064 (syst.) $ \pm$ 0.00064 (stat.) in e + $ \mu$ channel , respectively. The measured inclusive cross section is 3.81 $ \pm$ 0.15 (syst.) $ \pm$ 0.10 (stat.) pb in e channel , 3.87 $ \pm$ 0:11 (syst.) $ \pm$ 0:07 (stat.) pb in $ \mu$ channel , and 3.96 $ \pm$ 0.10 (syst.) $ \pm$ 0.06 (stat.) pb in e + $ \mu$ channel , respectively for full RunII data. The total inclusive cross section with a photon of transverse momentum $ \ge$ 20 GeV is found to be 3.96 $ \pm$ 0.10 (syst.) $ \pm$ 0.06 (stat.) pb with full RunII CMS data. The results are in agreement with the standard model next to leading order prediction.

Is Knowledge About Running Applications Helping Improve Runtime Prediction of HPC Jobs?

High-performance computing systems rely upon scheduling algorithms to achieve high utilization. These schedulers rely upon user estimates of job resource requirements, such as runtime, to determine optimal scheduling of incoming jobs. These user estimates, however, are prone to error. To mitigate this error, significant research has been directed at providing better estimates of job runtime, usually employing machine learning techniques. These techniques are dependent upon the input features selected. Among the possible features is the primary application used by the job. In a survey of more than 20 papers directed at improving runtime prediction, only four included primary application as an input feature. We focus this investigation specifically on the value of adding primary application as an input feature, and find that it does improve model performance, especially for jobs with longer runtimes, though this improvement varies based on the application used. We recommend further research to determine the cause of this variability as well as an optimal strategy for employing a mixture of models both including and not including primary application as a feature.

Startup process for a dual active bridge converter to prevent over-voltage failure and thermal run-away

A system and method for controlling a dual active bridge based DC/DC converter. A controller implements a startup control scheme and DC bus pre-charge routine to prevent damage to the converter upon startup. During startup of the converter, the startup control process can be used to prevent excessive phase-shift and the DC bus pre-charge routine adjusts the pulse width modulated duty cycle by increasing the dead time between signals, resulting in a decreased DC bus capacitor.
