Phase Diagram of the Two-Flavor Schwinger Model at Zero Temperature.

We examine the phase structure of the two-flavor Schwinger model as a function of the θ angle and the two masses, m_{1} and m_{2}. In particular, we find interesting effects at θ=π: along the SU(2)-invariant line m_{1}=m_{2}=m, in the regime where m is much smaller than the charge g, the theory undergoes logarithmic renormalization group flow of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless type. As a result, dimensional transmutation takes place, leading to a nonperturbatively small mass gap ∼e^{-Ag^{2}/m^{2}}.

Decoding locomotion from population neural activity in moving .

We investigated the neural representation of locomotion in the nematode by recording population calcium activity during movement. We report that population activity more accurately decodes locomotion than any single neuron. Relevant signals are distributed across neurons with diverse tunings to locomotion.
