  text: 'Two key processes are in the basis of morphogenesis: the spatial allocation
    of cell types in fields of naïve cells and the regulation of growth. Both are
    controlled by morphogens, which activate target genes in the growing tissue in
    a concentration-dependent manner. Thus the morphogen model is an intrinsically
    quantitative concept. However, quantitative studies were performed only in recent
    years on two morphogens: Bicoid and Decapentaplegic. This review covers quantitative
    aspects of the formation and precision of the Decapentaplegic morphogen gradient.
    The morphogen gradient concept is transitioning from a soft definition to a precise
    idea of what the gradient could really do.'

  text: We study the mechanics of tissue growth via cell division and cell death (apoptosis).
    The rearrangements of cells can on large scales and times be captured by a continuum
    theory which describes the tissue as an effective viscous material with active
    stresses generated by cell division. We study the effects of anisotropies of cell
    division on cell rearrangements and show that average cellular trajectories exhibit
    anisotropic scaling behaviors. If cell division and apoptosis balance, there is
    no net growth, but for anisotropic cell division the tissue undergoes spontaneous
    shear deformations. Our description is relevant for the study of developing tissues
    such as the imaginal disks of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, which grow
    anisotropically.

  text: When strained Stranski-Krastanow islands are used as &quot;self-assembled
    quantum dots,&quot; a key goal is to control the island position. Here we show
    that nanoscale grooves can control the nucleation of epitaxial Ge islands on Si(001),
    and can drive lateral motion of existing islands onto the grooves, even when the
    grooves are very narrow and shallow compared to the islands. A position centered
    on the groove minimizes energy. We use as prototype grooves the trenches which
    form naturally around islands. During coarsening, the shrinking islands move laterally
    to sit directly astride that trench. In subsequent growth, we demonstrate that
    islands nucleate on the &quot;empty trenches&quot; which remain on the surface
    after complete dissolution of the original islands.

  text: The field of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED), traditionally studied in
    atomic systems, has gained new momentum by recent reports of quantum optical experiments
    with solid-state semiconducting and superconducting systems. In cavity QED, the
    observation of the vacuum Rabi mode splitting is used to investigate the nature
    of matter-light interaction at a quantum-mechanical level. However, this effect
    can, at least in principle, be explained classically as the normal mode splitting
    of two coupled linear oscillators. It has been suggested that an observation of
    the scaling of the resonant atom-photon coupling strength in the Jaynes-Cummings
    energy ladder with the square root of photon number n is sufficient to prove that
    the system is quantum mechanical in nature. Here we report a direct spectroscopic
    observation of this characteristic quantum nonlinearity. Measuring the photonic
    degree of freedom of the coupled system, our measurements provide unambiguous
    spectroscopic evidence for the quantum nature of the resonant atom-field interaction
    in cavity QED. We explore atom-photon superposition states involving up to two
    photons, using a spectroscopic pump and probe technique. The experiments have
    been performed in a circuit QED set-up, in which very strong coupling is realized
    by the large dipole coupling strength and the long coherence time of a superconducting
    qubit embedded in a high-quality on-chip microwave cavity. Circuit QED systems
    also provide a natural quantum interface between flying qubits (photons) and stationary
    qubits for applications in quantum information processing and communication.

  text: Quantum theory predicts that empty space is not truly empty. Even in the absence
    of any particles or radiation, in pure vacuum, virtual particles are constantly
    created and annihilated. In an electromagnetic field, the presence of virtual
    photons manifests itself as a small renormalization of the energy of a quantum
    system, known as the Lamb shift. We present an experimental observation of the
    Lamb shift in a solid-state system. The strong dispersive coupling of a superconducting
    electronic circuit acting as a quantum bit (qubit) to the vacuum field in a transmission-line
    resonator leads to measurable Lamb shifts of up to 1.4% of the qubit transition
    frequency. The qubit is also observed to couple more strongly to the vacuum field
    than to a single photon inside the cavity, an effect that is explained by taking
    into account the limited anharmonicity of the higher excited qubit states.

  text: High quality on-chip microwave resonators have recently found prominent new
    applications in quantum optics and quantum information processing experiments
    with superconducting electronic circuits, a field now known as circuit quantum
    electrodynamics (QED). They are also used as single photon detectors and parametric
    amplifiers. Here we analyze the physical properties of coplanar waveguide resonators
    and their relation to the materials properties for use in circuit QED. We have
    designed and fabricated resonators with fundamental frequencies from 2 to 9 GHz
    and quality factors ranging from a few hundreds to a several hundred thousands
    controlled by appropriately designed input and output coupling capacitors. The
    microwave transmission spectra measured at temperatures of 20 mK are shown to
    be in good agreement with theoretical lumped element and distributed element transmission
    matrix models. In particular, the experimentally determined resonance frequencies,
    quality factors, and insertion losses are fully and consistently explained by
    the two models for all measured devices. The high level of control and flexibility
    in design renders these resonators ideal for storing and manipulating quantum
    electromagnetic fields in integrated superconducting electronic circuits.

  text: High-redshift quasars (z >~ 6) drive ionization fronts into the intergalactic
    medium (IGM). If the thickness of the front can be measured, it can provide a
    novel constraint on the ionizing spectral energy distribution (SED). Here we follow
    the propagation of an I-front into a uniform IGM, and compute its thickness for
    a range of possible quasar spectra and ages. We also explore the effects of uniform
    and non-uniform ionizing backgrounds. We find that even for hard spectra, the
    fronts are initially thin, with a thickness much smaller than the mean free path
    of ionizing photons, but the thickness increases as the front approaches equilibrium
    in 10^8 - 10^9 years, and can eventually significantly exceed simple estimates
    based on the mean free path. With a high intrinsic hydrogen column density obscuring
    the source (log(N_H/cm^-2) >~ 19.2) or a hard power-law spectrum combined with
    some obscuration (e.g. dlog(F_\nu)/dlog(\nu) >~ -1.2 at log(N_H/cm^-2) >~ 18.0),
    the thickness of the front exceeds ~1 physical Mpc and may be measurable from
    the morphology of its redshifted 21cm signal. We find that the highly ionized
    inner part of the front, which may be probed by Lyman line absorption spectra,
    remains sharp for bright quasars unless a large obscuring column (log(N_H/cm^-2)
    >~ 19.2) removes most of their ionizing photons up to ~40 eV. For obscured sources
    with log(N_H/cm^-2) >~ 19.8, embedded in a significantly neutral IGM, the black
    Lyman-alpha trough (where the neutral fraction is ~10^-3) underestimates the size
    of the HII region by a factor of >~4.

  text: Electromagnetic (EM) counterparts to supermassive black hole binary mergers
    observed by LISA can be localized to within the field of view of astronomical
    instruments ~10 deg^2 hours to weeks prior to coalescence. The temporal coincidence
    of any prompt EM counterpart with a gravitationally-timed merger may offer the
    best chance of identifying a unique host galaxy. We discuss the challenges posed
    by searches for prompt EM counterparts and propose novel observational strategies
    to address them. In particular, we discuss the size and shape evolution of the
    LISA localization error ellipses on the sky, and quantify the requirements for
    dedicated EM surveys of the area prior to coalescence. A triggered EM counterpart
    search campaign will require monitoring a several-square degree area. It could
    aim for variability at the 24-27 mag level in optical bands, for example, which
    corresponds to 1-10% of the Eddington luminosity of the prime LISA sources of
    10^6-10^7 Msun BHs at z=1-2, on time-scales of minutes to hours, the orbital time-scale
    of the binary in the last 2-4 weeks. A cross-correlation of the period of any
    variable EM signal with the quasi-periodic gravitational waveform over 10-1000
    cycles may aid the detection. Alternatively, EM searches can detect a transient
    signal accompanying the coalescence. We highlight the measurement of differences
    in the arrival times of photons and gravitons from the same cosmological source
    as a valuable independent test of the massive character of gravity, and of possible
    violations of Lorentz invariance in the gravity sector.

  text: With the help of numerical simulations, we examine two aspects of feedback
    from the first generation of stars on later star formation. First, we investigate
    the impact of relic HII regions on forming halos. We find that the positive and
    negative effects of such feedback nearly cancel because the increase in entropy
    due to heating is balanced by the increase in the H 2 fraction due to the free
    electrons. However, these halos can be delayed more easily by a background Lyman-Werner
    flux. Second, we show that HD cooling is important in halos which have been ionized
    and allowed to recombine. Gas is allowed to cool to the CMB temperature at densities
    around n∼10 4cm-3, reducing the accreted mass by a factor of a few. However, as
    the collapse proceeds, the central gas density exceeds the critical density of
    HD and heats until HD cooling is no longer important. Therefore the behaviour
    of the (smaller mass) core is relatively unaffected by HD cooling.

    on circular orbits around a 10^6 M_sun BHB, to kicks that are either parallel
    or perpendicular to the initial orbital plane. Typical kick velocities (v_k) can
    exceed the sound speed in a circumbinary gas disk. While the inner disk is strongly
    bound to the recoiling binary, the outer disk is only weakly bound or unbound.
    This leads to differential motions in the disturbed disk that increase with radius
    and can become supersonic at ~700 Schwarzschild radii for v_k ~500 km/s, implying
    that shocks form beyond this radius. We indeed find that kicks in the disk plane
    lead to immediate strong density enhancements (within weeks) in a tightly wound
    spiral caustic, propagating outward at the speed v_k. Concentric density enhancements
    are also observed for kicks perpendicular to the disk, but are weaker and develop
    into caustics only after a long delay (>1 year). Unless both BH spins are low
    or precisely aligned with the orbital angular momentum, a significant fraction
    (> several %) of kicks are sufficiently large and well aligned with the orbital
    plane for strong shocks to be produced. The shocks could result in an afterglow
    whose characteristic photon energy increases with time, from the UV (~10eV) to
    the soft X-ray (~100eV) range, between one month and one year after the merger.
    This could help identify EM counterparts to GW sources discovered by LISA.

  text: At the epoch of reionization, when the high-redshift inter-galactic medium
    (IGM) is being enriched with metals, the 63.2 micron fine structure line of OI
    is pumped by the ~ 1300 AA soft UV background and introduces a spectral distortion
    in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Here we use a toy model for the spatial
    distribution of neutral oxygen, assuming metal bubbles surround dark matter halos,
    and compute the fluctuations of this distortion, and the angular power spectrum
    it imprints on the CMB. We discuss the dependence of the power spectrum on the
    velocity of the winds polluting the IGM with metals, the minimum mass of the halos
    producing these winds, and on the cosmic epoch when the OI pumping occurs. We
    find that, although the clustering signal of the CMB distortion is weak \delta
    y_{rms} ~ 10^{-7} (roughly corresponding to a temperature anisotropy of few nK),
    it may be reachable in deep integrations with high-sensitivity infrared detectors.
    Even without a detection, these instruments should be able to useful constraints
    on the heavy element enrichment history of the IGM.

  text: "We conduct a Markov Chain Monte Carlo study of the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati
    self-accelerating braneworld scenario given the cosmic microwave background (CMB)
    anisotropy, supernovae and Hubble constant data by implementing an effective dark
    energy prescription for modified gravity into a standard Einstein-Boltzmann code.
    We find no way to alleviate the tension between distance measures and horizon-scale
    growth in this model. Growth alterations due to perturbations propagating into
    the bulk appear as excess CMB anisotropy at the lowest multipoles. In a flat cosmology,
    the maximum likelihood Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati model is nominally a 5.3⁢\U0001D70E
    poorer fit than \U0001D6EC⁢CDM. Curvature can reduce the tension between distance
    measures but only at the expense of exacerbating the problem with growth leading
    to a 4.8⁢\U0001D70E result that is dominated by the low multipole CMB temperature
    spectrum. While changing the initial conditions to reduce large-scale power can
    flatten the temperature spectrum, this also suppresses the large angle polarization
    spectrum in violation of recent results from the five-year Wilkinson Microwave
    Anisotropy Probe. The failure of this model highlights the power of combining
    growth and distance measures in cosmology as a test of gravity on the largest
    scales."

  text: The notion that microparsec-scale black holes can be used to probe gigaparsec-scale
    physics may seem counterintuitive, at first. Yet, the gravitational observatory
    LISA will detect cosmologically-distant coalescing pairs of massive black holes,
    accurately measure their luminosity distance and help identify an electromagnetic
    counterpart or a host galaxy. A wide variety of new black hole studies and a gravitational
    version of Hubble’s diagram become possible, if host galaxies are successfully
    identified. Furthermore, if dark energy is a manifestation of large-scale modified
    gravity, deviations from general relativistic expectations could become apparent
    in a gravitational signal propagated over cosmological scales, especially when
    compared to the electromagnetic signal from a same source. Finally, since inspirals
    of white dwarfs into massive black holes at cosmological distances may permit
    pre-merger localizations, we suggest that careful monitoring of these events and
    any associated electromagnetic counterpart could lead to high-precision cosmological
    measurements with LISA.

  text: The earliest generation of stars and black holes must have established an
    early ‘Lyman–Werner’ background (LWB) at high redshift, prior to the epoch of
    reionization. Because of the long mean free path of photons with energies hν <
    13.6 eV, the LWB was nearly uniform. However, some variation in the LWB is expected
    due to the discrete nature of the sources, and their highly clustered spatial
    distribution. In this paper, we compute the probability distribution function
    (PDF) of the LW flux that irradiates dark matter (DM) haloes collapsing at high
    redshift (z≈ 10). Our model accounts for (i) the clustering of DM haloes, (ii)
    Poisson fluctuations in the number of corresponding star-forming galaxies and
    (iii) scatter in the LW luminosity produced by haloes of a given mass (calibrated
    using local observations). We find that >99 per cent of the DM haloes are illuminated
    by an LW flux within a factor of 2 of the global mean value. However, a small
    fraction, ∼10^−8 to 10^−6, of DM haloes with virial temperatures Tvir≳ 10^4 K
    have a close luminous neighbour within ≲10 kpc, and are exposed to an LW flux
    exceeding the global mean by a factor of >20, or to J21,LW > 10^3 (in units of
    10^−21 erg s^−1 Hz^−1 sr^−1 cm^−2). This large LW flux can photodissociate H2
    molecules in the gas collapsing due to atomic cooling in these haloes, and prevent
    its further cooling and fragmentation. Such close halo pairs therefore provide
    possible sites in which primordial gas clouds collapse directly into massive black
    holes (MBH≈ 10^4−6M⊙), and subsequently grow into supermassive (MBH≳ 10^9M⊙) black
    holes by z≈ 6.

  text: One of the most dramatic signatures of the reionization era may be the enormous
    ionized bubbles around luminous quasars (with radii reaching ~40 comoving Mpc),
    which may survive as "fossil" ionized regions long after their source shuts off.
    Here we study how the inhomogeneous intergalactic medium (IGM) evolves inside
    such fossils. The average recombination rate declines rapidly with time, and the
    brief quasar episode significantly increases the mean free path inside the fossil
    bubbles. As a result, even a weak ionizing background generated by galaxies inside
    the fossil can maintain it in a relatively highly and uniformly ionized state.
    For example, galaxies that would ionize 20%-30% of hydrogen in a random patch
    of the IGM can maintain 80%-90% ionization inside the fossil for a duration much
    longer than the average recombination time in the IGM. Quasar fossils at z≲ 10
    thus retain their identity for nearly a Hubble time and appear "gray," distinct
    from both the average IGM (which has a "Swiss cheese" ionization topology and
    a lower mean ionized fraction) and the fully ionized bubbles around active quasars.
    More distant fossils, at z≳ 10, have a weaker galaxy-generated ionizing background
    and a higher gas density, so they can attain a Swiss cheese topology similar to
    the rest of the IGM, but with a smaller contrast between the ionized bubbles and
    the partially neutral regions separating them. Analogous He III fossils should
    exist around the epoch of He II/He III reionization at z ∼ 3, although rapid recombination
    inside the He III fossils is more common. Our model of inhomogeneous recombination
    also applies to "double-reionization" models and shows that a nonmonotonic reionization
    history is even more unlikely than previously thought.

  text: Nongravitational processes, such as feedback from galaxies and their active
    nuclei, are believed to have injected excess entropy into the intracluster gas,
    and therefore to have modified the density profiles in galaxy clusters during
    their formation. Here we study a simple model for this so-called preheating scenario,
    and ask (1) whether it can simultaneously explain both global X-ray scaling relations
    and number counts of galaxy clusters, and (2) whether the amount of entropy required
    evolves with redshift. We adopt a baseline entropy profile that fits recent hydrodynamic
    simulations, modify the hydrostatic equilibrium condition for the gas by including
    ≈20% nonthermal pressure support, and add an entropy floor K0 that is allowed
    to vary with redshift. We find that the observed luminosity-temperature (L − T)
    relations of low-redshift (⟨ z⟩ = 0.05) HIFLUGCS clusters and high-redshift (⟨
    z⟩ = 0.80) WARPS clusters are best simultaneously reproduced with an entropy floor
    that evolves from ≈200 h^−1/3 keV cm^ 2 at z ≈ 0.8 to ≳300 h^−1/3 keV cm^ 2 at
    z < 0.05. This evolution may take place predominantly at low redshift (z≲ 0.2).
    If we restrict our analysis to the subset of bright (kT≳ 3 keV) clusters, we find
    that the evolving entropy floor can mimic a self-similar evolution in the L −
    T scaling relation. This degeneracy with self-similar evolution is, however, lifted
    when 0.5 keV ≲ kT≲ 3 keV clusters are included. Using the cosmological parameters
    from the WMAP 3 yr data, but treating σ8 as a free parameter, our model can reproduce
    the number counts of the X-ray galaxy clusters in the 158 deg2 ROSAT PSPC survey,
    with a best-fit value of σ8 = 0.80 ± 0.05.

  text: Light-travel time delays distort the apparent shapes of H II regions surrounding
    bright quasars during early stages of cosmic reionization. Individual H II regions
    may remain undetectable in forthcoming redshifted 21 cm experiments. However,
    the systematic deformation along the line of sight may be detectable statistically,
    either by stacking tomographic 21 cm images of quasars identified, for example,
    by the James Webb Space Telescope, or as small-scale anisotropy in the three-dimensional
    21 cm power spectrum. Here we consider the detectability of this effect. The anisotropy
    is largest when H II regions are large and expand rapidly, and we find that if
    bright quasars contributed to the early stages of reionization, then they can
    produce significant anisotropy, on scales comparable to the typical sizes of H
    II regions of the bright quasars (≲30 Mpc). The effect therefore cannot be ignored
    when analyzing future 21 cm power spectra on small scales. If 10% of the volume
    of the intergalactic medium at z≃ 10 is ionized by quasars with typical ionizing
    luminosity of S≳ 5 × 10^56 s^−1, the distortions cause an ≳10 percent enhancement
    of the 21 cm power spectrum in the radial (redshift) direction, relative to the
    transverse directions. The level of this anisotropy exceeds that due to redshift-space
    distortion and has the opposite sign. We show that ongoing experiments such as
    Murchison Widefield Array (MWA, formerly known as the Mileura Widefield Array)
    should be able to detect this effect. A detection would reveal the presence of
    bright quasars and shed light on the ionizing yield and age of the ionizing sources
    and the distribution and small-scale clumping of neutral intergalactic gas in
    their vicinity.

  text: Primordial gas in protogalactic DM halos with virial temperatures Tvir≳ 104
    K begins to cool and condense via atomic hydrogen. Provided that this gas is irradiated
    by a strong UV flux and remains free of H2 and other molecules, it has been proposed
    that the halo with Tvir ∼ 104 K may avoid fragmentation and lead to the rapid
    formation of an SMBH as massive as M ≈ 105–106 M☉. This "head start" would help
    explain the presence of SMBHs with inferred masses of several times 109 M☉, powering
    the bright quasars discovered in the SDSS at redshift z≳ 6. However, high-redshift
    DM halos with Tvir ∼ 104 K are likely already enriched with at least trace amounts
    of metals and dust produced by prior star formation in their progenitors. Here
    we study the thermal and chemical evolution of low-metallicity gas exposed to
    extremely strong UV radiation fields. Our results, obtained in one-zone models,
    suggest that gas fragmentation is inevitable above a critical metallicity, whose
    value is between Zcr ≈ 3 × 10−4 Z☉ (in the absence of dust) and as low as Zcr
    ≈ 5 × 10−6 Z☉ (with a dust-to-gas mass ratio of about 0.01Z/Z☉). We propose that
    when the metallicity exceeds these critical values, dense clusters of low-mass
    stars may form at the halo nucleus. Relatively massive stars in such a cluster
    can then rapidly coalesce into a single more massive object, which may produce
    an intermediate-mass BH remnant with a mass up to M≲ 102–103 M☉.
