+ ABSTRACT
13
+ Web search engines have marked everyone’s life by transforming
14
+ how one searches and accesses information. Search engines give
15
+ special attention to the user interface, especially search engine
16
+ result pages (SERP). The well-known “10 blue links” list has evolved
17
+ into richer interfaces, often personalized to the search query, the
18
+ user, and other aspects. More than 20 years later, the literature has
19
+ not adequately portrayed this development. We present a study
20
+ on the evolution of SERP interfaces during the last two decades
21
+ using Google Search as a case study. We used the most searched
22
+ queries by year to extract a sample of SERP from the Internet
23
+ Archive. Using this dataset, we analyzed how SERP evolved in
24
+ content, layout, design (e.g., color scheme, text styling, graphics),
25
+ navigation, and file size. We have also analyzed the user interface
26
+ design patterns associated with SERP elements. We found that
27
+ SERP are becoming more diverse in terms of elements, aggregating
28
+ content from different verticals and including more features that
29
+ provide direct answers. This systematic analysis portrays evolution
30
+ trends in search engine user interfaces and, more generally, web
31
+ design. We expect this work will trigger other, more specific studies
32
+ that can take advantage of our dataset.

+ INTRODUCTION
58
+ The wealth of information available on the Web make search en-
59
+ gines an essential tool nowadays [1]. Web search engines have
60
+ evolved a lot, and their user interface is no exception. Web search
61
+ engines’ front end is gaining importance in a scenario where rel-
62
+ evance is becoming more difficult to evaluate by users, and their
63
+ perception becomes more influenced by the user experience [5,
64
+ p. 512].
65
+ Search interfaces support tasks from query formulation to select-
66
+ ing and understanding search results [5, p. 26-40]. Typically, web
67
+ search engines have a home page containing a search entry form
68
+ in which the user types a query. Retrieval results are usually dis-
69
+ played as vertical lists on Search Engine Results Pages (SERP). For
70
+ its richness, our study focuses on these pages. SERP have started
71
+ as simple “10 blue links” pages. Although search engines have kept
72
+ a consistent format of presenting search results, the information in
73
+ SERP goes way beyond these links. The design of query interfaces
74
+ and retrieval results display is an active area of research and exper-
75
+ imentation. Although works provide an in-depth analysis of search
76
+ user interfaces, such as the one from Hearst [22], the temporal
77
+ evolution of SERP is understudied.
78
+ Portraying the evolution of SERP contributes to preserving the
79
+ history of web search user interfaces. Moreover, assuming these
80
+ interfaces follow the general trends in web user interfaces, it con-
81
+ tributes to the overall study of web interfaces. Broadly, it depicts
82
+ trends in web design. This evolutionary analysis is also helpful
83
+ for the interactive information retrieval community to understand
84
+ better how the search interfaces have evolved in content, layout,
85
+ and navigation and build upon this for further and deeper analysis.
86
+ This study conducts an evolutionary analysis of Google’s SERP
87
+ during the last two decades of Google Search, analyzing the overall
88
+ user interfaces over time and their elements. We chose Google for
89
+ its popularity in the web search engine landscape. For this analysis,
90
+ we have captured from the Internet Archive 5,653 Google SERP
91
+ from 2000 to 2020.
92
+ This work makes several contributions. First, we present a sys-
93
+ tematization of the elements that appear or have appeared in a SERP,
94
+ defining each and providing visual examples. This systematization
95
+ can be helpful in future studies that have the SERP as their focus
96
+ and allows the establishment of common terminology. Second, we
97
+ analyze the evolution of the overall SERP and each element. Third,
98
+ we propose a methodology that can be used to study different types
99
+ of web search user interfaces (e.g., mobile ones) or user interfaces
100
+ in other contexts. Fourth, this paper makes two resources available

106
+ associated with each extracted capture and a website2 summarizing
107

108
+ inclusively done by researchers without advanced technological
109

111
+ RELATED WORK
112
+ Research in search user interfaces focuses on their design and
113
+ evaluation, either in broad or focused on query formulation, the
114
+ presentation of search results, or even query reformulation. There
115
+ are also works focused on personalization, information visualiza-
116
+ tion, or domain-specific search interfaces such as mobile, social, or
117
+ multimedia. There are whole books and monographs dedicated to
118
+ this subject [22, 35, 43, 48, 61, 63]. Despite such research, given our
119
+ focus, we only describe works focused on analyzing the anatomy
120
+ of SERP and, eventually, its evolution. This section does not cover
121
+ works proposing or evaluating search interface components.
122
+ Höchstötter and Lewandowski [23] address SERP composition
123
+ and count the various elements’ appearances. To the best of our
124
+ knowledge, this was the first work to analyze the entire structure of
125
+ the SERP. Besides, the authors examined the retrieved results, their
126
+ sources, and types (e.g., organic results, advertisements, shortcuts).
127
+ When the authors wrote this paper, advanced features in SERP
128
+ were not widespread, which was not the case when Moran and
129
+ Goray [40] studied the anatomy of SERP, defining the terminology
130
+ for SERP elements. Nielsen Norman Group uses this terminology in
131
+ several articles [36, 40–42]. In their ‘Search Patterns’ book, Morville
132
+ and Callender [43], apart from addressing the anatomy of the search
133
+ process and related behavior, also list elements and principles of
134
+ interaction design, illustrating many user interface design patterns
135
+ around search websites.
136
+ To the best of our knowledge, no works systematically collect
137
+ and analyze SERP interfaces over time.

139
+ METHODOLOGY
140
+ The first stage of our work involves building a sample of SERP inter-
141
+ faces over time, a process described in Section 3.1 and Section 3.2.
142
+ After collecting this sample, our attention focused on its analysis
143
+ and automation, as described in Section 3.3.
144
+ 3.1
145
+ What SERP have we captured?
146
+ Google Search currently has 91.4% of the market share [10], a lead-
147
+ ership that goes back to 2002 [27, 46]. In this context, we decided
148
+ to focus our analysis on this search engine. This study will address
149
+ desktop versions of Google Search from 2000 until 2020. A compar-
150
+ ative analysis with the seconded ranked search engine, Microsoft
151
+ Bing, is done in another work [45] and is available on the study’s
152
+ website.
153
+ The Internet Archive keeps snapshots and the respective HTML
154
+ version of web pages over time. Its collection contains 588 billion
155
+ web pages [3]. Internet Archive provides the Wayback CDX Server
156
+ API, which allows complex querying, filtering, and analysis of cap-
157
+ tures. While filtering by URL, we can use a wildcard (*) at the end of
158
+ 1Available at https://doi.org/10.25747/991g-f765
159
+ 2https://bedgarone.github.io/serpevolution/
160
+ the URL to specify the latter as a prefix and receive entries beyond
161
+ the specified URL (e.g., www.google.com/search?q=cookies*).
162
+ We found more than 195 thousand captures of Google SERP
163
+ during two decades using the API. This large number of SERP and
164
+ existing resource restrictions led us to devise a method to iden-
165
+ tify a smaller set of SERP. To increase the likelihood of reaching
166
+ pages with SERP element diversity, we have used a set of 129 most
167
+ searched queries in the last 20 years, retrieved from Google Trends
168
+ during the same period. This set3 contains the first search query
169
+ from each available category, such as People, Health, or Electron-
170
+ ics. These queries include relevant terms often searched by users
171
+ and trigger features in SERP. Hence, it is highly likely that SERP
172
+ interfaces derived from these queries are richer and, thus, more
173
+ relevant for this study than those generated by random searches.
174
+ We decided to append these queries with the ‘*’ wildcard while
175
+ submitting them to the API to obtain more captures.
176
+ We noticed that some years had no captures using the most
177
+ searched queries, which coincided with periods in which there
178
+ were few captures from Google Search’s domain. Hence, in those
179
+ years, we collected all the available captures (all method in Table 1).
180
+ We also noticed that the last two years had much more captures
181
+ (>10 thousand). Therefore, in 2019 and 2020, we restricted the URL
182
+ submitted to the API to those containing queries shorter than 37
183
+ characters. Considering that an English word has, on average, about
184
+ five characters [44, 65], the 37 characters are the equivalent of 6
185
+ words plus spaces between them, which is more than the two to
186
+ three words that a query typically has [6, 24, 25]. This restriction
187
+ excludes more specific queries that are probably less useful to the
188
+ plurality of interfaces. Our sample has 5.653 captures. The last
189
+ column of Table 1 has ordered lists with the number of captures
190
+ per year.

+ Table 1: Method used to collect the captures, maximum

+ Figure 1: Extracting captures procedure
290
+ generate a screenshot. The capture process is shown in Figure 1.
291
+ The original URL is the URL of the original SERP (e.g., google.com/
292
+ search?q=photography), while the archived URL is the URL of its
293
+ archived version (e.g., web.archive.org/web/20160125203434/www.
294
+ google.com/search?q=photography).
295
+ Some captures with an HTTP OK status code were not consid-
296
+ ered valid. Some are inexistant, showing a contradictory message
297
+ of URL not captured, while others are defective (e.g., incomplete
298
+ interfaces without search results). To automatically check the va-
299
+ lidity of each capture, we try to find a result entry, the element
300
+ that cannot lack in a SERP. Captures from SERP tabs other than the
301
+ general first page, identified with “tbm” in the URL, were discarded
302
+ for being outside this work’s scope. We raise a timeout exception
303
+ after 6 seconds, the time we empirically considered sufficient to
304
+ load the capture in the browser. In these situations, the program
305
+ will skip the capture. Before downloading the page, we still remove
306
+ graphical elements from Internet Archive, such as its information
307
+ and donation bars. Some of the captures present other distracting
308
+ banners and overlapping parts of the interface, such as the ones
309
+ related to cookie consent. We removed all the identified ones and
310
+ extracted the source and associated files.
311
+ The process concludes with generating full-height screenshots
312
+ of every HTML version opened in another browser instance in
313
+ headless mode. We produced screenshots considering the most
314
+ popular screen size at the time of the capture, as stated by the
315
+ statistics [55]. We only considered the width, shown in Table 1,
316
+ because SERP height is highly variable. The dataset with all the
317
+ extracted captures is available online4.
318
+ 3.3
319
+ How have we analyzed SERP?
320
+ The analysis process included two main stages, as shown in Figure 2.
321
+ First, we have extracted a sample of captures from the primary
322
+ dataset to identify SERP elements. For each month with captures in
323
+ the primary dataset, we manually looked at the screenshots of that
324
+ month’s captures and selected the capture with the most features.
325
+ In the end, this set included 117 captures, with which we visually
326
+ identified SERP elements. We manually analyzed each element’s
327
+ source code, looking for identifiers to locate the element in a later
328
+ 4https://doi.org/10.25747/991g-f765
329
+ automated process. Element identifiers consist of HTML classes, ids,
330
+ tags, or a combination of these using CSS selectors (e.g., ‘.knowledge-
331
+ panel’, ‘#tads’ or ‘#newsbox’). All the encountered identifiers were
332
+ logged and listed on the website5.

355
+ Figure 2: Detection and analysis of elements procedure
356
+ In the second stage, we automated the detection of these elements
357
+ over time, allowing the exploration of a more significant number of
358
+ cases. Finding an element with these identifiers triggers a function
359
+ that stores the date of the element’s appearance in a log file. We
360
+ imposed no limit of captures per month to register the element’s
361
+ appearance, as the computation permits a full dataset scan in an
362
+ acceptable time. The function also receives the element’s upper-left
363
+ corner coordinates, width, and height, generating and saving its
364
+ image in the element’s folder. Contrary to the element’s timestamp,
365
+ we imposed a limit of 15 captures per month while screenshotting
366
+ to reduce and make the scan time feasible. We estimate that 15
367
+ monthly samples are enough to capture the possible changes of an
368
+ element.
369
+ Following a similar procedure, we automatically used the iden-
370
+ tifiers to detect and color the web page’s targeted areas. We used
371
+ Python, Selenium Webdriver, and BeautifulSoup to scrape every
372
+ HTML capture to identify and generate transparency-colored im-
373
+ ages for each category of elements. We generated these images in
374
+ a headless browser with a 1920px width, regardless of the capture’s
375
+ width. This simplification does not affect the final result because the
376
+ elements in the interfaces do not move dynamically as the width
377
+ increases or decreases. We have not constrained the height in this
378
+ generation process. Due to the size of the dataset, we imposed a
379
+ limit of 15 elements per month.
380
+ We overlayed all the individual images from single captures for
381
+ each category of elements, which allows the overlay to enhance the
382
+ most common areas while leaving the others almost unnoticeable.
383
+ The overlaying process uses the upper-left corner as the reference
384
+ for image alignment. Navigation & user inputs includes elements
385
+ in and next to the footer, where common areas were not evident
386
+ due to the page height’s variability. In this case, to generate and
387
+ correctly overlap the footers of the interface, we considered a height
388
+ value of 600px for the footer, cropping it from the bottoms of the
389
+ interface. The 600px height was estimated after a visual analysis of
390
+ SERP pages and included a margin of error to ensure we covered all
391
+ elements under study. Thus, the orange result displayed in Figure 3
392
+ is trimmed in the middle and combines those two capturing steps.

+ We will analyze the positioning of every category of elements in

410
+ EVOLUTION OF SERP ELEMENTS
411
+ We present each element’s description and analyze its period of
412
+ presence and positioning in SERP (also displayed on the website7).
413
+ Moreover, we analyze each element’s evolution regarding content,
414
+ graphics, navigation, and their relation with user interface design
415
+ patterns. These patterns are problem-oriented and generally repeat-
416
+ able solutions to usability problems in interface and interaction
417
+ design [18, 57].
418
+ 4.1
419
+ Visual identity & search statistics
420
+ Considering Google’s visual identity, each logo version has kept its
421
+ position and size with rare variations. Figure 3 shows the overall
422
+ position of the logo in red. Some interfaces are exceptions, offering
423
+ a more significant left margin and a right-shifted logo and search
424
+ statistics. Figure 3, in gray, shows how search statistics appear
425
+ consistently below the search query or navigation bar, either left-
426
+ aligned, right-aligned, or justified. Statistics included the number of
427
+ results seen per page in the first decade. Later, Google removed this
428
+ information and kept only the estimated number of results. Details
429
+ about the logo evolution and the content about search statistics can
430
+ be seen online8.
431
+ 4.2
432
+ Navigation & User Inputs
433
+ Figures 4 and 5 display the main stages of how the search box and its
434
+ surroundings evolved. The left-aligned query bar has also marked
435
+ its place at the top of the page. Yet, in the early phases, it also
436
+ appeared at the bottom, as seen in the 2000 and 2006 screenshots of
437
+ Figure 5. The Input Prompt design pattern has always been applied
438
+ to User Inputs.
439
+ We notice a change in the width of the entry form after 2006,
440
+ which may suggest an encouragement to the formulation of longer
441
+ queries [6, 19]. This change is in line with experimental evaluations
442
+ where query length is positively related to effectiveness in the IR

+ NextThe Evolution of Web Search User Interfaces - An Archaeological Analysis of Google SERP
601
+ CHIIR’23, March 19–23, 2023, Austin, TX, USA
602
+ the query via spoken commands in the latest screenshot. This ap-
603
+ pearance aligns with the increasing attention conversational search
604
+ interfaces have received [2]. Although works show promising re-
605
+ sults in incorporating visual elements in query formulation [53],
606
+ there is no sign of them in Google Search.
607
+ The search box and the current query are always visible for the
608
+ searcher, as recommended [63], since 2019. This visibility occurs
609
+ even when the user scrolls down and the top of the SERP is no
610
+ longer visible. Before 2019, the query was always available in the
611
+ search box, but this box disappeared if the user scrolled down.
612
+ Because we cannot interact with past SERP versions, we cannot
613
+ analyze interaction features such as auto-complete or auto-correct.
614
+ In 2000, as seen in Figure 4, the main buttons for this category
615
+ were ‘Google Search’ and ‘I’m feeling lucky’. It was possible to
616
+ select, directly in a dropdown near the search box, how many
617
+ results should be shown, the language intended for the results, and
618
+ an option to send the retrieved results by email. In the screenshots
619
+ of 2000 and 2001 presented in Figure 4, the Category Hierarchy
620
+ feature is also visible showing one or more categories related to the
621
+ query, probably obtained from Google Web Directory. This feature,
622
+ available until 2004, located these categories in more general areas
623
+ using breadcrumbs, a design pattern that linearly specifies hierarchy
624
+ levels leading to the current subject or page [57, 58]. At the bottom
625
+ of the interface, there was also an option to search within the results
626
+ and links to trigger the query on other Web search engines. Other
627
+ lesser relevant links would point to SERP experience (e.g., language,
628
+ search tips).
629
+ Although nonexistent for several years, it is possible to notice in
630
+ Figure 3, in orange, the significant presence of the left navigation
631
+ bar during some years of SERP history. This left column in orange
632
+ is naturally interrupted in the middle area of the interface, trimmed
633
+ as explained in Section 3.3.
634
+ In 2001, Google introduced the tabs bar in the shape of Module
635
+ Tabs used when content is groupable and there is no room for
636
+ everything. Modules of content are divided into small tabbed areas
637
+ with only one visible at a time, allowing the user to click on tabs
638
+ to reveal other modules [57, 58]. Tabs don’t need to be literal tabs
639
+ and don’t have to be at the top of the stack of modules [57]. The
640
+ modules were Web, Images, Groups, and Directory. In 2002, Google
641
+ added the News tab. In 2006, the tabs were replaced by simple links
642
+ above the search query. This year, the Video, Maps, Froogle, and More
643
+ tabs were introduced. In 2008, the tabs bar went to the very top of
644
+ the page, and the Shopping and Gmail tabs were included. In 2010,
645
+ the left sidebar was introduced, complementing the interface with
646
+ other tabs and information such as location and results filtering. In
647
+ 2012, Google removed the bottom query bar. In 2013, the tabs bar
648
+ was displaced underneath the main query bar, maintaining some
649
+ links and changing others. At the same time, in the left sidebar, only
650
+ the results’ filtering options were available before Google removed
651
+ this sidebar in 2014. Finally, in 2015, the tabs bar below the query
652
+ bar became the only existing one.
653
+ There is also a usual space for sign-in and user account informa-
654
+ tion on the right side of the screen. At the bottom of the page, two
655
+ areas are noticeable: pagination, aligned to the center of the results
656
+ container, and the footer, at the very end, covering all the width.
657
+ These areas are visible in Figure 3. The Pagination design pattern
658
+ has been applied to Navigation since the beginning of SERP. Pagi-
659
+ nation breaks up the long results list into different SERP, loading
660
+ them one at a time [57].
661
+ 4.3
662
+ Organic Results
663
+ Organic results are retrieved based on the document’s content
664
+ and the overall retrieval algorithm. Regarding their positioning,
665
+ in Figure 3 (blue), there is a more substantial presence of colored
666
+ frames in the area where results are typically included (henceforth
667
+ called results container), with a greater focus on the visible area. By
668
+ visible area, we mean the interface area that can be seen without
669
+ scrolling. Information that needs scrolling to be accessed is in a
670
+ scrolling area. Over time, it is noticeable that SERP pages have
671
+ increased their height due to the vertical decrease of color intensity,
672
+ revealing results in lower page regions. Part of the results is slightly
673
+ shifted to the right, referring to interfaces with a left-side navigation
674
+ bar. It is possible to observe two other very tenuous sets. One with
675
+ more centered results since the interface from 2010 to 2012 adjusted
676
+ elements’ position according to the width and central axis of the
677
+ screen rather than a left alignment. Some frames cover the entire
678
+ interface width, not because the content was that large, but because,
679
+ in the early days, HTML divisions (div) typically spanned across the
680
+ complete width of the viewport because Document Object Model
681
+ (DOM) trees were less deep. The viewport consists of the visible
682
+ area of an interface on a display device.
683
+ Organic results can be regular or enriched. The structure of
684
+ regular results, seen in Figure 6, started as a basic block of the
685
+ page title, snippet, and URL links for similar or/and cached pages
686
+ for the result. In 2013, Google hid these links in a dropdown, only
687
+ visible by its arrow icon until now. In 2018, Google introduced a
688
+ link to translate the result.
689
+ Figure 6: Regular result from 2003 (left) and 2020 (right)
690
+ The enriched results, seen in Figure 7, are variations of regu-
691
+ lar results, with extra elements below the title, snippet, and URL,
692
+ giving some additional information to the user. This element can
693
+ have greater visibility and, in turn, a higher click rate [8, 21, 47].
694
+ It appeared for the first time in 2008, lasting until now. Its posi-
695
+ tioning is consistently at the top of the results container. Initially,
696
+ the extra content included two columns of site links pointing to
697
+ sub-pages of the result’s domain. These links, named quicklinks, are
698
+ navigational aid that attempts to take the users to the content they
699
+ want quickly [8]. In 2009, it started highlighting structured data,
700
+ such as reviews and ratings for products and services, based on
701
+ experiments that showed that users find value in this new data [29].
702
+ In 2010, Google enhanced each site link with a short description.
703
+ In 2016, a search bar was introduced so that the user could search
704
+ the result’s website directly from SERP.
705
+ In both regular and enriched results, query term highlighting
706
+ with boldfacing has been applied since 2006 to improve the usability
707
+ of search results listings [11, 32, 38]. The dominant colors are blue
708
+ for the title, green for the URL, and black/grey for the snippet.

718
+ About 2011, the URL moved above the snippet. Google underlined
719
+ the title until 2014. In 2020, the URL changed its color to gray and
720
+ moved above the title. The new position of the URL may have
721
+ been influenced by the importance of URL and domain names in
722
+ evaluating the credibility of a result [34, 50]. In 2019, the URL started
723
+ being displayed as a breadcrumb, which may have been motivated
724
+ by research that concluded that long and complex URL negatively
725
+ impact clickthroughs [11].
726
+ In both types of organic results, the snippet length has not visibly
727
+ changed, with most of the snippets having two lines, the suggested
728
+ size for informing the user, and including as many results as pos-
729
+ sible in the visible area [63]. As most of the queries used for data
730
+ collection are associated with informational tasks, we cannot con-
731
+ clude if Google adjusts the length of the snippet to the type of
732
+ query (e.g., informational, navigational) as suggested by existing
733
+ research [15].

735
+ Sponsored Results
736
+ As seen in Figure 8, textual ads are short advertisements that
737
+ appear alongside organic results. These entries are focused on com-
738
+ mercial intent, combining relevance with revenue, and are usually
739
+ manually crafted, a standard in the advertisement industry [16].
740
+ This element has been present in SERP since the first day, lasting
741
+ until now. This element’s content and evolution are identical to the
742
+ ones of Regular Results, except these were initially marked with a
743
+ specific tag, ‘Sponsored link’. In 2012, some of the results started
744
+ to include quicklinks, although less noticeable than in Enriched re-
745
+ sults. Until 2014, a different background color distinguished these
746
+ elements from organic results. Scarce occurrences in 2017 also had
747
+ a colored background. In 2014, the tag ‘Ad’ substituted the previous
748
+ one, having a yellow background color, while from 2016 onwards,
749
+ it was green. In 2020, some ads could have the shape of an actual
750
+ Enriched result. The URL also changed its color to gray and moved
751
+ above the title.
752
+ Figure 8: Textual ads from 2002 (top), 2014 (left) and 2020
753
+ (right)
754
+ The other type of ads correspond to shopping content and are,
755
+ therefore, called shopping ads, seen in Figure 9. These are acti-
756
+ vated when the query is commercial [47]. These are very striking
757
+ results, listing various information about each product. This el-
758
+ ement appeared for the first time in 2013, lasting until now. Its
759
+ positioning is usually at the top of the results container and, more
760
+ frequently, at the right of that container. Shopping ads used to be
761
+ exclusive to the right sidebar, displaying one to four results in a
762
+ matrix. In 2018, each result was embedded in an individual card.
763
+ Until 2019, query terms were highlighted in bold. In 2020, this ele-
764
+ ment appeared in the results container in a carousel of cards with
765
+ more width and less height. The Cards design pattern has been
766
+ applied to this element since 2019, and the Carousel since 2020.
767
+ Cards display content composed of distinct parts, generally about
768
+ a single subject, to form one coherent piece of content designed
769
+ to expose information efficiently [56, 57]. It is usual for cards to
770
+ accompany other cards, carrying similar content but addressing
771
+ different subjects. The Carousel is a horizontal strip of simple cards,
772
+ letting the user scroll horizontally to view them and encouraging
773
+ the inspection of the following items [57, 58]. Since the element’s
774
+ beginning, the Thumbnail Grid has been applied, enabling a quick
775
+ overview of images by shrinking the original ones [51, 57].
776
+ In Figure 3, it is possible to identify two major advertisement
777
+ areas in SERP: top ads and right ads, following a typical SERP
778
+ layout [5, p. 489]. Elements in the right sidebar move horizontally
779
+ over time because some interfaces force this sidebar to be responsive
780
+ to the screen’s width. Top ads are the most common positions
781
+ for ads within a soft vertical variation. Older interfaces placed
782
+ advertisements on a fully colored div that occupied almost the
783
+ entire viewport width for the same reason described in Section 4.3.
784
+ Compared with regular results and other features, we can see in
785
+ Figure 3 that sponsored results are more concentrated in the visible
786
+ area, probably motivated by the fact that searchers rarely scroll [63].

+ Features
791
+ SERP features complement organic and sponsored results, attempt-
792
+ ing to provide answers to the query without just pointing to web-
793
+ sites that might deliver that information.
794
+ Figure 3, in green, shows features spread around the interface,
795
+ mainly in the visible area and upper half of the scrolling area. Many
796
+ features are similar to regular results but with more significant
797
+ height. These features also share a place in the sidebar with adver-
798
+ tisements, recently becoming more present than the latter. Most
799
+ frames with large height values correspond to the well-known
800
+ Knowledge Panel. A horizontal area is noticeable, generally assigned
801
+ to the Carousel and the Carousel Grid.

+ GecnnaTHa A..The Evolution of Web Search User Interfaces - An Archaeological Analysis of Google SERP
915
+ CHIIR’23, March 19–23, 2023, Austin, TX, USA
916
+ Due to space limitations, we selected a subset of features based
917
+ on their lifetime and distinctiveness to be analyzed in detail. The
918
+ Video Pack feature will not be considered for its similarity with the
919
+ Image Pack. The same happens with Direct Answer Results, Local
920
+ Pack, People Also Ask, Carousel, Carousel Grid, Recipe Cards, Twitter
921
+ Pack, Category Hierarchy, and Covid-19 Left Panel for their shorter
922
+ presence. More information about these features is available in
923
+ another paper [45] and online9.
924
+ Featured Snippets, seen in Figure 10 are answer boxes in which
925
+ Google responds to a question-related query based on information
926
+ taken from a page [59]. This element appeared for the first time in
927
+ 2016, lasting until now. Its positioning is consistently at the top of
928
+ the results container. Although these snippets resemble enriched
929
+ results, they differ in the type and position of extra content. In
930
+ featured snippets, the additional content appears before the result’s
931
+ title and not after, as happens in enriched results. The content of a
932
+ featured snippet was initially made of a short paragraph with an-
933
+ swering information. It evolved to a general layout, used until now,
934
+ consisting of a larger paragraph, a thumbnail at the upper-right
935
+ corner, and the title and link to the information’s source, to where
936
+ it is possible to navigate. The answer also started to be returned as
937
+ an ordered list or table. Instead of a thumbnail, a video or a carousel
938
+ of images may also accompany it. In 2018, when available, Google
939
+ introduced the date of the source’s publication after the information
940
+ paragraph. The underlined style of the title was removed in 2017,
941
+ and the green URL was changed to a gray breadcrumb URL in 2020,
942
+ as in the organic and sponsored results. Text styling is used in both
943
+ paragraph and title, enhancing relevant words in bold. Studies have
944
+ found that these snippets help make more accurate decisions when
945
+ containing the correct information [7].

+ Figure 10: Featured Snippets from 2016 (top), 2017 (left) and

948
+ The Knowledge Panel, seen in Figure 11, is perhaps the high-
949
+ light of SERP features. It is a dynamic feature that provides direct
950
+ information in various formats within the same panel, pointing to
951
+ related content. The contents range from text to images, ratings,
952
+ social profiles, factual information, and similar search topics [47],
953
+ helping the user to understand a particular subject quickly and
954
+ facilitating a more in-depth search [17]. This element appeared for
955
+ the first time in 2014, lasting until now. Its positioning is always
956
+ at the right of the results container. The basic structure consists
957
+ of a panel with a top thumbnail of the subject, vertically followed
958
+ by a title, a website link if applicable, a resume paragraph usually
959
+ by Wikipedia, a structured list of direct information, and a block
960
+ 9https://bedgarone.github.io/serpevolution/elements
961
+ of People also search for. During the following years, Google intro-
962
+ duced other content highly dependable on the search topic and
963
+ variable in coverage and quality [37]. It is common to have this
964
+ panel populated by Wikipedia information [60]. The graphics of
965
+ this element was stable over time, following the improvements
966
+ in Google’s interface design. The Grid of Equals and Thumbnail
967
+ Grid design patterns have been applied to this element since its
968
+ beginning. Grid of Equals is a pattern to display items in a grid or
969
+ matrix, each following a standard template, linking to respective
970
+ pages [58]. The Cards, Carousel, and Module Tabs design patterns
971
+ were applied to this element in 2018.
972
+ Figure 11: Knowledge Panel from 2016 (left) and 2018 (right)
973
+ The Image Pack, seen in Figure 12, presents a set of images
974
+ taken from various sources in Google’s index in searches where
975
+ visual content is valuable [59]. This element appeared for the first
976
+ time in 2006, but only after 2010 did it frequently appear, lasting
977
+ until now. Its positioning is highly variable throughout the results
978
+ container. Most of the time, the content was a title associating
979
+ images with the search query and a block of image thumbnails. In
980
+ 2014, Google included a link for ‘more images’ and a link to report
981
+ pictures. In 2019, Google introduced a bar of image categories. It
982
+ could have simple buttons or buttons with a thumbnail associated
983
+ with its category. The graphics started with a considerable presence
984
+ of blue colors, typical in Google’s early interfaces when images
985
+ had a blue border. In 2014, Google removed this border, but the
986
+ main change was in 2019 when images started to be in a carousel.
987
+ In 2018, the layout of a matrix appeared for the first time. These
988
+ changes increased the element’s area in the last two years. In 2020
989
+ the title, as usual in most elements, turned dark gray. The carousel
990
+ of image categories changed its shape to a line that expands to a
991
+ matrix in the form of progressive disclosure using the Collapsible
992
+ Panels pattern. The Grid of Equals design pattern has been applied
993
+ to this element since 2018, while Thumbnail Grid, naturally, since
994
+ its beginning. Arguello et al. [4] examined vertical results, such as
995
+ images, in aggregated search. They found that these results had
996
+ more clicks in more complex tasks and that users were divided in
997
+ their preferences for vertical search displays.

+ Figure 12: Image Pack from 2010 (left) and 2020 (right)
1084
+ The Top Stories, seen in Figure 13, are blocks of three or more
1085
+ recent news considered relevant to the query, recently placed in
1086
+ the form of a carousel [47]. Each story is now presented with a
1087
+ thumbnail, publisher, and timestamp. This element appeared for the
1088
+ first time in 2004, but only after 2011 it started to appear frequently,
1089
+ lasting until now. Its positioning is mainly in the visible area of the
1090
+ results container. The element’s content started with a vertical list
1091
+ of at most four news titles, each followed by the source’s name and
1092
+ how long ago it was published. In 2006, a journal icon was placed at
1093
+ the left of the list, and a link to ‘today’s top stories’ was introduced.
1094
+ In 2013, the icon was substituted by a thumbnail for the first news
1095
+ result, being the most important news in the element. The latter was
1096
+ complemented with an extract of the news, while the rest stayed the
1097
+ same. In 2020, leading to a considerable increase in the element’s
1098
+ area, the graphics was majorly altered to display the results in
1099
+ a carousel of cards. However, the content was simplified to only
1100
+ present, for each result, a thumbnail, title, source, and how long ago
1101
+ it was published. As usual, the color scheme was mainly blueish
1102
+ and filled with blue borders and underlines. These were removed
1103
+ after 2020 with the softer gray colors for additional information
1104
+ but still blue titles. The Streams and Feeds design pattern has been
1105
+ applied to this element since its beginning. It defines a pattern to
1106
+ list time-sensitive items chronologically, combining the sources in
1107
+ one place [58]. However, in this element, the relation to the query
1108
+ appears to be more relevant than publication time since it is no
1109
+ longer possible to observe any chronological order. The Cards and
1110
+ Carousel design patterns have been applied since 2020.

1113
+ Related Searches, seen in Figure 14, is a common element on
1114
+ SERP pages from a very early age and offers suggestions for related
1115
+ searches, i.e., queries that are in some way related to the current
1116
+ query and may be good candidates for follow-on queries. These
1117
+ suggestions can be helpful to support exploration or provide query
1118
+ statements that express information needs in different ways [62].
1119
+ Usually, these suggestions are generated based on search log data,
1120
+ either picking queries that frequently follow the current query [28]
1121
+ or clustering queries based on results’ clicking [13]. Each link takes
1122
+ the user to the respective SERP. This element appeared for the first
1123
+ time in 2008, lasting until now, except for 2010. Its positioning is
1124
+ always at the bottom of the results container. The content was
1125
+ diversified regarding how many suggestions would appear and its
1126
+ layout. Each suggestion of search is a hyperlinked title pointing to
1127
+ its respective SERP. Initially, it was organized in a matrix of columns.
1128
+ In 2011, Google reduced this schema to two columns, which could
1129
+ be displayed in just one column for suggestions with longer text.
1130
+ Until mid-2020, suggestions were blue and, until 2014, underlined.
1131
+ Google applied a search icon to each entry in 2020. Later, a new
1132
+ version changed the graphics, making each entry a button with a
1133
+ solid gray background, a search icon, and a title in black. This latter
1134
+ change contributed to a recent increase in the element’s average
1135
+ area.

+ AGGREGATED ANALYSIS
1140
+ This section analyzes SERP’s evolution from an aggregated per-
1141
+ spective.
1142
+ 5.1
1143
+ Elements’ lifetime
1144
+ As shown, SERP have always had a large variety of elements, each
1145
+ with its evolution and active periods, as described in Section 4. Ac-
1146
+ cording to the framework proposed by Wilson [63], input features
1147
+ were analyzed in Section 4.2, with the search box being the main
1148
+ one. To support control, besides the input features, we also iden-
1149
+ tified the related searches feature. All the other analyzed features
1150
+ are informational. It is important to note that, given the nature of
1151
+ this study, it was not possible to analyze dynamic features such as
1152
+ interactive querying or personalizable features.
1153
+ Black cells in Table 2 identify the years we detected elements
1154
+ in our dataset. For all years in-between black cells, we have con-
1155
+ ducted a manual search in other sources to avoid false negatives.
1156
+ In these cases, we have searched specific websites10 for evidence
1157
+ of elements in such years. If found, we paint the cell grey. It is
1158
+ noticeable how SERP features have emerged in the last decade,
1159
+ contributing to a matrix full of element possibilities in recent years.
1160
+ Almost every SERP element includes well-known design patterns.
1161
+ A visual timeline with screenshots of these elements’ presence in
1162
+ SERP is available online11.
1163
+ 5.2
1164
+ Design pattern application
1165
+ Table 3 maps each element with the patterns proposed by Tidwell
1166
+ et al. [57], along with the start date of that appliance. Older SERP
1167
+ elements make later use of design patterns for individual improve-
1168
+ ment. In contrast, some contemporary elements may have arisen

1283
+ from the need to apply a design pattern solution whose traces are
1284
+ evident from the element’s beginning. The website12 lists design
1285
+ patterns with images and elements that use them.
1286
+ 5.3
1287
+ Highlights
1288
+ We identify the most relevant changes along the upper part of a
1289
+ two-decade timeline of SERP in Figures 15 and 16. These changes
1290
+ correspond to the entry of new elements or significant changes
1291
+ in input and navigation options. This timeline of changes is also
1292
+ available online13, enhanced with images and the option to filter
1293
+ the entries for navigation changes or element additions.
1294
+ As stated before, the first stage of the analysis used a visual
1295
+ selection from a monthly sample from the dataset. Figures 15 and
1296
+ 16 also display, in their lower part, how Google’s SERP interfaces
1297
+ evolved in terms of design. In these timelines, we include the main
1298
+ versions of the SERP interface based on significant changes. Apart
1299
+ from how the overall interfaces visually evolved, similar timelines
1300
+ about visual identity, search statistics, and navigation are available
1301
+ on the website14.
1302
+ Google’s initial interfaces had few depth levels in their HTML
1303
+ DOM. The first interface design, traced in 2000, differentiated the
1304
+ sponsored results with a colored background. A second search

1306
+ 13https://bedgarone.github.io/serpevolution/timeline
1307
+ 14https://bedgarone.github.io/serpevolution/design
1308
+ query bar existed at the bottom of the page, and the user could
1309
+ change the number of results presented. Google removed this bar in
1310
+ the following interfaces. The one traced from 2000 to 2004 revealed
1311
+ a right block of results, exclusive to sponsored ones. It marked the
1312
+ appearance of the first bar with tabs directing the user to other
1313
+ types of content (e.g., images and news). The fourth interface design,
1314
+ traced from 2010 to 2012, was not left-oriented but varied in a spaced
1315
+ manner depending on the screen’s width. It introduced a sidebar
1316
+ on the left, containing tabs to manage the results, but some of these
1317
+ tabs were duplicated due to the navbar’s tabs bar mentioned in
1318
+ Section 4.2.
1319
+ Significant aesthetic changes occurred in 2012. The fifth interface
1320
+ design relates to the launch of the Knowledge Graph, with the
1321
+ right column being divided between it and sponsored results. Some
1322
+ modifications were found earlier in the dataset during those years,
1323
+ the sixth interface design. However, a design close to the current
1324
+ one began at the end of 2018, the seventh interface design. As noted
1325
+ in some elements’ graphics, this interface focused on modernizing
1326
+ its lines.
1327
+ 5.4
1328
+ User interface area
1329
+ We calculated the area of all screenshots in the dataset to analyze its
1330
+ evolution over time. Figure 17 shows the development of interface
1331
+ area per month (dots) and per year (line), measured in pixels. Each
1332
+ entry in the chart corresponds to the average area per month for all

1484
+ Files’ size and number
1485
+ We made a similar approach to study the variation in file size re-
1486
+ garding the entire dataset. Figure 18 represents the SERP captures’
1487
+ file size evolution and the number of files in its folder. For each
1488
+ capture, we summed the size of each associated file and averaged it
1489
+ per month and, consequently, year. We did not consider embedded
1490
+ files in the HTML but files linked through the associated files folder.
1491
+ Size results accompany the development of the interface area,
1492
+ as seen in Figure 17, expressing a steep rise in the last few years.
1493
+ This increase cannot be related to a surge in the associated files,
1494
+ as later values share similar values with the first years of SERP
1495
+ existence. Nevertheless, results suggest that SERP sought to reduce
1496
+ the number of related files, achieving this aim during the first
1497
+ decade. This number started to rise again because interfaces evolved
1498
+ 15Available at https://bedgarone.github.io/serpevolution/layout
1499
+ and demanded more images and graphics, which can increase the
1500
+ files needed to load a SERP. Besides, protocol advancements such
1501
+ as HTTP pipelining or SPDY may have contributed to the increase
1502
+ of these associated assets.

1509
+ DISCUSSION
1510
+ SERP are no longer pages with “10 blue links”. We have shown that
1511
+ the range of SERP elements has been growing continuously but
1512
+ steeper in the last few years. Although this increase might con-
1513
+ tribute to cluttering the page and falling into the “more is less” trap,
1514
+ we expect SERP to continue evolving quickly [5, p. 512]. Interfaces
1515
+ have kept track of web development’s evolution, as shown by the
1516
+ regular adoption of design patterns.
1517
+ The Category Hierarchy stands out as the only feature used in the
1518
+ first years and later discontinued. The decrease in web directories’
1519
+ popularity may have been the reason for this.
1520
+ Although organic results have been keeping a relatively stable
1521
+ format, SERP have become more diversified over time, providing
1522
+ increasingly sophisticated navigational aids to enhance results in-
1523
+ terpretation, relevance assessment, and user satisfaction [8, 21, 54].

+ These features complement organic and sponsored results and at-
1542
+ tempt to infer users’ needs and quickly satisfy them even if not ex-
1543
+ plicitly mentioned in their search queries [8] following a “universal
1544
+ search” vision [39]. As shown, most SERP elements are informa-
1545
+ tional, providing information about results.
1546
+ The growth in SERP elements almost exponentially increased
1547
+ interface area since modern pages need more vertical space. These
1548
+ pages are getting heavier. Surprisingly, given the number of current
1549
+ features that use non-textual content, the average number of files

+ is not much more significant than in 2000. Notwithstanding, we
1551
+ noticed a higher dispersion in the average number of files in more
1552
+ recent years, as seen in Figure 18.
1553
+ Aggregating results from heterogeneous sources - verticals - and
1554
+ presenting them in a single interface – aggregated search – has
1555
+ become standard practice [66]. We could notice this in the Image
1556
+ Pack, Video Pack, Local Pack, and Top Stories features. Other features
1557
+ like the Featured Snippet assemble information in different formats
1558
+ extracted from one source. Since 2020, information on the Web
1559
+ has dramatically increased in quantity and diversity. Videos are
1560
+ nowadays much more popular than they were at the beginning
1561
+ of the century, and content from new platforms such as location
1562
+ technology (e.g., Google Maps) or social media (e.g., Twitter) has
1563
+ emerged. This evolution naturally affected the need for the change
1564
+ of the SERP elements. The fact that graphical information is pro-
1565
+ cessed before the textual information [23] might also explain the
1566
+ recurrent appearance of images and videos in features. On the other
1567
+ hand, the evolution of SERP is strongly informed and influenced
1568
+ by users’ search behavior. Users scarcely look at results other than
1569
+ the first ones [26] and tend to reformulate the query if they cannot
1570
+ find promising results at the top of the list [20]. They rarely look at
1571
+ results, such as videos or news, in their respective SERP ‘tabs’ [52].
1572
+ This behavior may also motivate search engines to include aggre-
1573
+ gations of other types of results [23], not for the diversity, because
1574
+ most users will not reach them outside the first results page.
1575
+ The SERP are also affected by the interests of the search engine
1576
+ providers who provide users not only with relevant results but
1577
+ also with results of their interest. This reality gained prominence
1578
+ when the European Commission concluded that Google abused its
1579
+ market dominance by the way it presented sponsored results [12].
1580
+ Although not a focus of analysis of this work, it is frequent to see
1581
+ Google showing results from its maps service, YouTube results in
1582
+ the video container, shopping results from its shopping ads service,
1583
+ and blurring the lines between organic and sponsored results. These
1584
+ decisions have a higher impact on users with less search engine
1585
+ knowledge, who are more likely to trust and use Google [49].
1586
+ SERP features often allow the user to interact with the contents
1587
+ of a web page directly from the SERP [21, 43]. This cannibalizes
1588
+ clicks [9] and might mean that users get satisfied without clicking
1589
+ on search results, which was defined by Li et al. [33] as “good
1590
+ abandonment”. Studies have found that features that provide direct
1591
+ answers improve user engagement on SERP, reduce user effort,
1592
+ and promote user satisfaction [64]. Besides contributing to user
1593
+ satisfaction, these features also encourage user engagement and,
1594
+ thus, revenue [21, 31].
1595
+ Our results reinforce the idea that evaluation measures solely
1596
+ based on the list of “10 blue links” must be rethought based on
1597
+ the SERP we have today. The standard practices of aggregating
1598
+ results from heterogeneous verticals and including features that
1599
+ provide direct answers on SERP have implications for how users
1600
+ interact with search systems and, therefore, on their evaluation.
1601
+ The cannibalization of clicks requests evaluations that consider
1602
+ other types of interactions with the SERP. Challenges emerge in the
1603
+ way users’ feedback is explored, either explicitly from user studies
1604
+ or implicitly from weblogs. Work has already been conducted to
1605
+ rethink evaluation in the context of aggregated search pages [66]
1606
+ and good abandonment scenarios [30].

1608
+ CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK
1609
+ Using Google as a case study, we studied how SERP user interfaces
1610
+ evolved over two decades. While existing research has relied on
1611
+ the actual states of these interfaces, we have updated and improved
1612
+ the analysis with an evolution perspective, addressing old and new
1613
+ elements, their positioning, size, and patterns. We extracted and
1614
+ provide a dataset with 5,000+ SERP captures, including HTML
1615
+ versions and screenshots.
1616
+ We showed that SERP are becoming more diverse in terms of
1617
+ elements, aggregating content from different verticals and including
1618
+ more features that provide direct answers. These changes affect
1619
+ user behavior that, more often, abandon the page satisfied, the
1620
+ so-called “good abandonment”.
1621
+ In the future, we want to analyze other web search engines’ SERP
1622
+ and compare results. We would also like to explore the evolution
1623
+ of SERP in mobile environments. Here, we would like to know if
1624
+ the increase in the SERP area found in this work results in a more
1625
+ significant differentiation of user interfaces between desktop and
1626
+ mobile environments. As stated previously, features that require
1627
+ interaction with the SERP were not analyzed here because our page
1628
+ captures from the Internet Archive don’t allow such interaction.
1629
+ Given the importance of such features, we would like to explore
1630
+ them in current SERP versions. Studies that analyze SERP charac-
1631
+ teristics by types of queries (e.g., informational, navigational) and
1632
+ user studies comparing old and contemporary SERP would also be
1633
+ interesting.

+ ABSTRACT
61
+ The detection of satellites around extrasolar planets, so called exomoons, remains a largely unex-
62

63
+ velocity monitoring of self-luminous directly imaged planets. This technique is now possible thanks
64
+ to the development of dedicated instruments combining the power of high-resolution spectroscopy and
65
+ high-contrast imaging. First, we demonstrate a sensitivity to satellites with a mass ratio of 1 − 4% at
66
+ separations similar to the Galilean moons from observations of a brown-dwarf companion (HR 7672 B;
67
+ Kmag=13; 0.7′′ separation) with the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC; R ∼ 35, 000 in K
68
+ band) at the W. M. Keck Observatory. Current instrumentation is therefore already sensitive to large
69
+ unresolved satellites that could be forming from gravitational instability akin to binary star formation.
70
+ Using end-to-end simulations, we then estimate that future instruments such as MODHIS, planned for

86
+ 1. INTRODUCTION
87
+ 1.1. Exomoon formation pathways
88
+ Moons similar to those around Jupiter are expected
89
+ to form in circumplanetary disks (CPD) as a by-product
90
+ of planet formation (Batygin & Morbidelli 2020). The
91
+ typical CPD total dust mass relative to the planet is
92
+ around 10−4 (Canup & Ward 2006) commensurate with
93
+ the mass ratios of solar system satellites around the gas
94
+ giants listed in Table 1. This is consistent with the mea-
95
+ sured value of the CPD around PDS 70 c from ALMA
96
+ observations (Benisty et al. 2021), which is 0.031MEarth
97
+ and corresponds to a mass ratio of about 5 × 10−5,
98
+ assuming a 2MJup planet (Benisty et al. 2021).
99
+ It is
100
+ also possible to form larger moons from the merger of
101
+ Galilean-like multiple systems. This is the proposed sce-
102
+ nario to explain the high-eccentricity and large mass of
103
+ Saturn’s moon Titan (Asphaug & Emsenhuber 2018).
104
+ Alternative formation pathways include the capture of
105
+ satellites (e.g., Neptune’s moon Triton, Agnor & Hamil-
106
+ ton (2006)), collisions with protoplanets (e.g., the Moon,
107
+ Canup & Asphaug (2001)]), or even gravitational insta-
108
+ bility like in the formation of brown dwarf binaries (Laz-
109
+ zoni et al. 2020). The detection of satellites that formed
110
+ in a CPD remains challenging with current instrumenta-
111
+ tion, but binary planets and brown dwarfs are already
112
+ accessible with various techniques depending on their
113
+ separation (Lazzoni et al. 2022). Characterizing the dif-
114
+ ferent populations with different mass ratios, such as
115
+ binary brown-dwarf companions (ie, triple systems) and
116
+ smaller CPD moons, could help inform the formation
117
+ pathways of directly imaged planets.
118
+ Indeed, binary
119
+ companions could only occur in a top-down scenario,
120
+ while CPD formation could occur in all cases. An im-
121
+ portant lesson from early exoplanet discoveries is that
122
+ the solar system is not a good predictor of exoplanet de-
123
+ mographics. Planet formation theories also often strug-
124
+ gle to account for the diversity of new discoveries. For
125
+ example, the first discoveries of hot Jupiters and the
126
+ ubiquity of super-Earths and mini Neptunes were ini-
127
+ tially a surprise to the community (Batalha 2014). As
128
+ a corollary, it would be unwise to assume that exomoon
129
+ searches should be any different (Kipping et al. 2015).
130
+ It is therefore important that we keep pushing the dis-
131
+ covery space with new observational methods.
132
+ 1.2. Status of exomoon searches
133
+ For the past decade, transiting surveys have unequiv-
134
+ ocally dominated the landscape of exomoon searches
135
+ (Kipping et al. 2012) through the analysis of transit
136
+ timing variations and additional transit signal from the
137
+ moon. They have placed the first constraints on exo-
138
+ moon occurrence rates and shown that high-mass ratio
139
+ satellites are not common around short-period exoplan-
140
+ ets (Kipping et al. 2015; Teachey et al. 2018). Other
141
+ detection techniques have been used to look for exo-
142
+ moons around directly imaged exoplanets such as as-
143
+ trometry or direct imaging. While these terms also re-
144
+ fer to planet detection techniques, in this context, direct
145
+ imaging means to spatially resolve the satellite from the
146
+ planet.
147
+ Astrometric detections refers to the measure-
148
+ ment of the astrometric wobble of a planet caused by
149
+ orbiting moons with precise interferometric instruments
150
+ such as VLTI/GRAVITY (Gravity Collaboration et al.
151
+ 2021). To date, only a handful of exomoon candidates
152
+ have been proposed: for example two around transit-
153
+ ing planets (Teachey & Kipping 2018; Kipping et al.
154
+ 2022), one orbiting a directly-imaged brown dwarf (Laz-
155
+ zoni et al. 2020), and another around an isolated plan-
156
+ etary mass object (Limbach et al. 2021).
157
+ None have
158
+ been confirmed. Most notably, the exomoon candidate
159
+ Kepler 1708 b-i is a transiting 2.6 Earth radii object or-
160
+ biting a Jupiter-sized planet, which, if confirmed, would
161
+ be several orders of magnitude larger than the Galilean
162
+ moons in terms of mass ratio (Kipping et al. 2022).
163
+ Transiting planets generally have short orbital peri-
164
+ ods and smaller Hill spheres. These conditions could be
165
+ less favorable to moon formation and retention, while
166
+ observed transits of long period exoplanets (> 1 au) are
167
+ intrinsically rare. For example, it has been suggested
168
+
169
+ RV detection of exomoons
170
+ 3
171
+ that planets could lose their satellites as they migrate
172
+ inward (Spalding et al. 2016).
173
+ The detection of exo-
174
+ moons around imaged planets with astrometry or direct
175
+ imaging is more sensitive to longer-period moons (Laz-
176
+ zoni et al. 2022). These two techniques might not be
177
+ well suited for satellites with mass ratios and separa-
178
+ tions (< 30RJup) similar to the ones orbiting the solar
179
+ system gas giants.
180
+ 1.3. A promising alternative: RV detections around
181
+ directly imaged planets
182
+ Another technique has been proposed to look for
183
+ moons around directly imaged planets using RV mea-
184
+ surements of the planet itself (Vanderburg et al. 2018;
185
+ Vanderburg & Rodriguez 2021). By measuring the wob-
186
+ ble of planets caused by orbiting satellites, planetary RV
187
+ surveys is a promising alternative for finding Galilean
188
+ moons analogs. Directly-imaged companions are likely
189
+ to have a different formation and migration history com-
190
+ pared to transiting exoplanets.
191
+ They are also gener-
192
+ ally more massive and further away resulting in much
193
+ more extended Hill spheres. Models suggest that larger
194
+ planets form even larger moons following the scaling
195
+ m ∝ M 3/2, with m and M the masses of the moon and
196
+ the planet respectively (based on equation 43 in Baty-
197
+ gin & Morbidelli (2020)). As another formation path-
198
+ way, binary systems forming as the tail end of stellar
199
+ formation through gravitational instability of the proto-
200
+ stellar cloud or the protoplanetary disk could lead to a
201
+ population of easily detectable high-mass ratio satellites
202
+ and binary companions (Lazzoni et al. 2022). In sum-
203
+ mary, directly imaged companions could be more likely
204
+ to host larger moons, which could be detected from RV
205
+ monitoring of the planets themselves.
206
+ 1.4. Recent technology developments
207
+ There are two aspects to optimizing the choice of a
208
+ target for exomoon searches: the RV precision that can
209
+ be achieved and the probability of the object to host a
210
+ moon. In this work, we focus on the former and study
211
+ the detectable mass ratios for exomoons as a function of
212
+ the instrument, the telescope, and the planet or brown-
213
+ dwarf properties.
214
+ Although the RV detection of exo-
215
+ moons remains challenging due to the intrinsic faintness
216
+ of planets and the light contamination from the glare
217
+ of the host star, the expertise obtained from 30 years
218
+ of stellar RV exoplanet detections is an invaluable as-
219
+ set.
220
+ Indeed, stable high-resolution spectrographs and
221
+ data analysis techniques are already demonstrating sta-
222
+ bility and performance in excess of the level of preci-
223
+ sion needed for exomoons.
224
+ Vanderburg & Rodriguez
225
+ (2021) derived the first exomoon mass upper limits with
226
+ this technique around the HR 8799 planets based on the
227
+ planetary RV time series reported by Ruffio et al. (2021)
228
+ using OSIRIS, an R = 4, 000 spectrograph, at the W.
229
+ M. Keck observatory. This study ruled out moons with
230
+ mass greater than a Jupiter mass and period less than
231
+ one day that would be orbiting the 7 Jupiter mass planet
232
+ HR 8799 c.
233
+ Recent
234
+ technological
235
+ advances
236
+ in
237
+ infrared
238
+ high-
239
+ resolution spectroscopy for high-contrast companions
240
+ are enabling the first planetary RV searches for exo-
241
+ moons (Snellen et al. 2015; Jovanovic et al. 2017; De-
242
+ lorme et al. 2021; Otten et al. 2021). The Keck Planet
243
+ Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) recently demon-
244
+ strated R = 35, 000 K-band spectroscopy of directly-
245
+ imaged exoplanets, including the HR 8799 system, mea-
246
+ suring their RVs and obtaining spin measurements for
247
+ the first time (Wang et al. 2021b). KPIC is the first
248
+ implementation of a new class of spectrographs that
249
+ combines the power of the Keck II adaptive optics sys-
250
+ tems, the stability and starlight suppression of single
251
+ mode fibers, and the high spectral resolution of the NIR-
252
+ SPEC spectrograph for the detailed study of directly
253
+ imaged planets (Delorme et al. 2021). We observed a
254
+ bright brown dwarf companion (HR 7672 B, K = 13.04,
255
+ ∼ 0.7′′, Liu et al. (2002); Boccaletti et al. (2003)) as part
256
+ of the commissioning and science verification of KPIC
257
+ (Delorme et al. 2021; Wang et al. 2022a). While it is
258
+ at the boundary of the stellar regime, HR 7672 B is an
259
+ interesting benchmark companion, because it has a dy-
260
+ namically measured mass of 72.7±0.8MJup (Crepp et al.
261
+ 2012; Brandt et al. 2019) and its composition should be
262
+ similar to that of the star due to its assumed formation
263
+ history from gravitational instability. Using this target,
264
+ Wang et al. (2022a) showed that accurate atmospheric
265
+ compositions could be retrieved using KPIC’s high re-
266
+ solving power and angular resolution by demonstrating
267
+ a 1.5σ consistency between the composition of HR 7672
268
+ B and its host star (see also Xuan et al. 2022).
269
+ HR
270
+ 7672 B was also observed for a full night with KPIC as
271
+ a test case for variability studies. This time series can
272
+ be used to put the deepest limits to date on the mass
273
+ of an orbiting satellite around the sub-stellar compan-
274
+ ion, which we are demonstrating in this work. KPIC
275
+ is already undergoing several upgrades including a laser
276
+ frequency comb which will enable precise RV science (Yi
277
+ et al. 2016; Jovanovic et al. 2020). The expected dou-
278
+ bling of the instrumental throughput will significantly
279
+ improve its sensitivity (Jovanovic et al. 2020; Echev-
280
+ erri et al. 2022). The next generation of high-contrast
281
+ high-resolution spectrograph such as HISPEC at the
282
+ W. M. Keck Observatory and MODHIS on the future
283
+ Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) will undoubtedly open
284
+
285
+ 4
286
+ Ruffio et al.
287
+ new frontiers in this field by allowing 0.98 − 2.46 µm si-
288
+ multaneous coverage at an average spectral resolution
289
+ R > 100, 000 (Mawet et al. 2019; Mawet et al. 2022).
290
+ 1.5. Outline
291
+ In section 2, we present exomoon RV detection lim-
292
+ its for the brown dwarf companion HR 7672 B using
293
+ KPIC. In section 3, we then simulate observations of the
294
+ same brown dwarf and the planet HR 8799 c with next
295
+ generation facilities and compare their sensitivity to the
296
+ moons in the solar system. In section 4, we explore the
297
+ parameter space of satellites that could be detected with
298
+ TMT/MODHIS as a function of planet properties. Fi-
299
+ nally, we conclude on the prospects for RV detections of
300
+ exomoons in section 5.
301
+ 2. EXOMOON LIMITS AROUND HR 7672 B WITH
302
+ KPIC
303
+ 2.1. Observations and data reduction
304
+ The brown dwarf companion HR 7672 B was observed
305
+ three times in 2020 and then for a full night on July 4,
306
+ 2021 with KPIC (R ∼ 35, 000) in K band (1.9−2.4 µm)
307
+ (Mawet et al. 2017; Delorme et al. 2021). These obser-
308
+ vations are detailed in Table 2. The first three epochs
309
+ included one to two hours of on-target exposures per
310
+ night and were already published in Wang et al. (2022a)
311
+ and Delorme et al. (2021).
312
+ Unfortunately, the condi-
313
+ tions on July 4, 2021 were well below average with the
314
+ companion undetectable in some individual 5-minute ex-
315
+ posures. During this one night specifically, we used an
316
+ ABAB pattern to nod the companion between two KPIC
317
+ fibers, fiber 1 and 2, to limit or identify any fiber-specific
318
+ biases. There was no nodding during the other epochs.
319
+ The data was reduced with the KPIC data reduction
320
+ pipeline (DRP)1 following the same approach described
321
+ in Wang et al. (2021b, 2022a). The first steps include
322
+ background subtraction, bad pixel correction, and the
323
+ calibration of the fiber trace location and width on the
324
+ detector for each NIRSPEC spectroscopic order. Opti-
325
+ mal extraction is then used to extract the spectra and
326
+ the wavelength solution is derived from the telluric and
327
+ stellar lines of a M giant, namely HIP 81497, taken on
328
+ the same night. For this purpose, the telluric model is
329
+ generated with the Planetary Spectrum Generator (Vil-
330
+ lanueva et al. 2018) and star is modeled by a Phoenix
331
+ model (log(g/[1 cm.s−2]) = 1; Teff = 3600 K Husser
332
+ et al. (2013)).
333
+ 2.2. Forward model and likelihood
334
+ 1 https://github.com/kpicteam/kpic pipeline
335
+ We use a forward modelling approach similar to Wang
336
+ et al. (2021b) and Ruffio et al. (2021) to measure the RV
337
+ of HR 7672 B, which includes a joint modelling of the
338
+ starlight and the companion signal. Wang et al. (2021c)
339
+ showed that the continuum could be included in the for-
340
+ ward model with a fourth order polynomial, therefore
341
+ not requiring the data to be high-pass filtered nor contin-
342
+ uum normalized. In this work, we model the continuum
343
+ using a spline-based linear model, which can be ana-
344
+ lytically marginalized using the general purpose python
345
+ module breads2 (Broad Repository for Exoplanet Anal-
346
+ ysis, Discovery, and Spectroscopy) based on the formal-
347
+ ism in Ruffio et al. (2019).
348
+ The spline forward mod-
349
+ eling has the advantage of being more robust to bad
350
+ pixels than a Fourier based high-pass filter and avoids
351
+ the non-linearity of a sliding-window median filter. The
352
+ spline parameters are also easier to optimize than the
353
+ coefficients of a high order polynomial for example.
354
+ We define the forward model as,
355
+ d = MRVφ + n,
356
+ (1)
357
+ where d is the data vector of size Nd, MRV is the linear
358
+ model, φ are the linear parameters, and n is a random
359
+ vector of the noise with a diagonal covariance matrix Σ.
360
+ A scaling factor for the noise is also fitted to model any
361
+ underestimation of the noise. Off-diagonal elements in
362
+ the covariance matrix are neglected here, but subsequent
363
+ data processing steps would correct for this inaccuracy.
364
+ The different column vectors of the linear model are il-
365
+ lustrated in Figure 1. The data vector and the standard
366
+ deviation of the noise used to define Σ0 are direct out-
367
+ puts of the KPIC data reduction pipeline. The variance
368
+ of the noise is multiplied by a free parameter scaling fac-
369
+ tor s2 to account for any underestimation of the noise.
370
+ KPIC includes four single mode fibers separated by
371
+ 0.8′′ on a line. We can therefore acquire simultaneous
372
+ spectra of the companion and the host star, more specif-
373
+ ically the speckle field, by rotating the field of view using
374
+ the Keck II adaptive optics system front-end K-mirror
375
+ rotator. The observations of the star are used to derive
376
+ simultaneous empirical models of the transmission and
377
+ the starlight spectra used in the forward model. The
378
+ starlight is used to model the speckle noise leaking into
379
+ the fiber at the position of the companion. The wave-
380
+ length calibration is different in each fiber so the spectra
381
+ are linearly interpolated to match the sampling of the
382
+ science fiber. The planet model is defined as the spin-
383
+ broadened best fit model from Wang et al. (2022a) using
384
+ petitRADTRANS (Molli`ere et al. 2019) multiplied by

491
+ the empirical telluric and instrument transmission pro-
492
+ file. The continuum of both the planet and the speckle
493
+ are modulated by a 3rd order spline model. Ten spline
494
+ nodes are used in each spectral order (∆λ ∼ 0.05 µm) for
495
+ the planet model to manage any inaccuracies in the con-
496
+ tinuum due to imperfections in the atmosphere model
497
+ fit. This number of nodes is analogous to a 200 pixel-
498
+ wide high-pass filter. The number of nodes was chosen
499
+ as a trade-off between the number of additional param-
500
+ eters and the optimal high-pass filter scale of 100 pixels
501
+ found in Xuan et al. (2022). The speckle continuum is
502
+ modeled with three spline nodes to model any speckle
503
+ crossing the fiber location as the wavelength changes.
504
+ This results in 13 linear parameters per spectral order
505
+ representing the values of the continua at the location of
506
+ the nodes (See Figure 1). This defines the linear model
507
+ MRV with dimensions Nd × 13, which is also a function
508
+ of the RV of the planet, the only non-linear parameter
509
+ fitted for here.
510
+ KPIC data features strong spectral fringing due to
511
+ the FabryP´erot cavities formed by the transmissive op-
512
+ tics inside the NIRSPEC spectrograph (Hsu et al. 2021)
513
+ and within the KPIC fiber injection unit (Finnerty et al.
514
+ 2022). This effect is made worse by the high spatial co-
515
+ herence of the wavefront in KPIC. We therefore apply a
516
+ Fourier filter to the data and the forward model by zero-
517
+ ing frequencies corresponding to the fringes. A physical
518
+ model of the fringing such as Cale et al. (2019) could be
519
+ explored in the future.
520
+ The likelihood function is defined from a multivariate
521
+ Gaussian distribution as,
522
+ L(RV, φ, s2) =

+
532
+ .
533
+ (2)
534
+ The likelihood is maximized using a linear least square
535
+ solver on a grid of RV values from −400 to 400 km/s in
536
+ steps of 0.2 km/s. The 1σ RV uncertainties are derived
537
+ from the RV posterior calculated analytically according
538
+ to Equation 10 in Ruffio et al. (2021) on this RV sam-
539
+ pling.
540
+ This method analytically marginalized the RV
541
+ posterior for the modulation of the continuum and the
542
+ noise scaling factor. The linear spline parameters used
543
+ to fit the continuum are forced to be positive. This is
544
+ theoretically inconsistent with the framework, which as-
545
+ sumes unconstrained parameters, but it does not appear
546
+ to significantly impact the RV time series.
547
+ Only the three reddest orders, out of nine in K band,
548
+ are used in this analysis. The bluest three orders (num-
549
+ bered 39-37; 1.94 − 2.09 µm) were discarded because
550
+ they feature strong saturated CO2 telluric lines that are
551
+ generally harder to model, but also make for an unsta-
552
+ ble fit due to overlapping frequencies with the fringing
553
+
554
+ 6
555
+ Ruffio et al.
556
+ and the simple Fourier filter. The middle three orders
557
+ (2.10 − 2.27 µm) lack sufficient stellar and telluric spec-
558
+ tral lines to calibrate the wavelength precisely enough.
559
+ Thus, only the remaining three orders are used in this
560
+ analysis: 2.29−2.34 µm (order 33), 2.36−2.41 µm (order
561
+ 32), and 2.44 − 2.49 µm (order 31). Order 33 includes
562
+ the carbon monoxide bandhead and therefore results in
563
+ the strongest signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) and the most
564
+ precise radial velocity measurement.
565
+ Each NIRSPEC
566
+ spectral order is fitted separately resulting in three RV
567
+ estimates for each exposure.
568
+ 2.3. RV measurements
569
+ The barycentric corrected RV measurements for the
570
+ four epochs and three orders are shown in Figure 2.
571
+ Following the method described in subsection 2.2, the
572
+ median RV uncertainties in five minute exposures are
573
+ 2.5 km.s−1,4.0 km.s−1,4.9 km.s−1 for order 6, 7, and 8
574
+ respectively. We overplot the predicted radial velocity of
575
+ the brown dwarf from orbital fits to the relative astrom-
576
+ etry from Crepp et al. (2012) and RV measurements of
577
+ the host star (Crepp et al. 2012; Rosenthal et al. 2021).
578
+ The orbit fits were done with orbitize! (Blunt et al.
579
+ 2020) following its RV tutorial3 and using the emcee
580
+ (Foreman-Mackey et al. 2013) sampler to obtain a pos-
581
+ terior of allowed orbits. This orbital RV of the compan-
582
+ ion in each epoch is predicted from this orbit fit and is
583
+ subsequently subtracted from the estimated RV of the
584
+ planet when running the exomoon search. Similarly to
585
+ fitting the centroid of a Gaussian (King 1983), the RV
586
+ precision goes as the typical linewidth in the spectrum
587
+ divided by the total S/N of the detection. In the case of
588
+ HR 7672 B, the large spin with v sin i = 45.0±0.5 km.s−1
589
+ (Wang et al. 2022a) is a limiting factor in deriving more
590
+ precise RVs. The impact on the exomoon sensitivity of
591
+ other fundamental parameters such as the brightness,
592
+ age, mass, and separation from the star are discussed in
593
+ section 4 in the context of TMT/MODHIS.
594
+ 2.4. Exomoon sensitivity
595
+ The open-source Python package RVSearch4 (Rosen-
596
+ thal et al. 2021) is used to look for possible exomoons
597
+ around HR 7672 B and derive the sensitivity of our
598
+ KPIC RV time series. RVSearch is a planet search algo-
599
+ rithm that was developed by the California Legacy Sur-
600
+ vey for high-precision radial velocity surveys (Howard &
601
+ Fulton 2016; Rosenthal et al. 2021; Fulton et al. 2021).
602
+ Planets are detected from periodograms, which are ex-

606
+ pressed as the difference in Bayesian Information Cri-
607
+ terion (BIC) between a model including the planet and
608
+ a model without it (Rosenthal et al. 2021). The ∆BIC
609
+ can be used to select the model that best represents the
610
+ data, or, in other words, determine if a planet is neces-
611
+ sary to explain the observations. Planet candidates are
612
+ detected by iteratively adding additional planet signal
613
+ to the model (Rosenthal et al. 2021). For each iterative
614
+ search, the algorithm fits a detection threshold to the
615
+ periodogram using the power law noise model described
616
+ in Howard & Fulton (2016). To characterize the search
617
+ completeness of a dataset, RVSearch performs injection-
618
+ recovery tests, drawing many synthetic planet signals,
619
+ injecting them in the data, and checking whether their
620
+ signals surpass the last detection threshold. The sim-
621
+ ulated signals were injected as described in (Rosenthal
622
+ et al. 2021) with period and M sin i from log-uniform
623
+ distributions, and eccentricity from an empirically cali-
624
+ brated beta distribution (Kipping 2013).
625
+ RVSearch is directly applicable to the search for ex-
626
+ omoons by replacing the properties of the star by the
627
+ ones of the planet. We assume that each spectral order
628
+ in NIRSPEC has a different zero RV point due to pos-
629
+ sible inconsistencies between them. This can be done
630
+ with RVSearch, which linearly solves for offsets between
631
+ subsets of RVs, and uses a wide, Gaussian, uninforma-
632
+ tive prior on white noise for each subset.
633
+ This fea-
634
+ ture is usually used to fit data from different instru-
635
+ ments. Two analyses are performed, first only using the
636
+ long night of observations (07/04/2021) and then all the
637
+ available data. The latter provides a longer time base-
638
+ line.
639
+ The resulting periodograms and exomoon com-
640
+ pleteness are shown in Figure 3. By combining the four
641
+ epochs, the observations are sensitive to satellites with
642
+ a mass ratio of 1% at semi-major axes similar to that
643
+ of Io (6RJup) around Jupiter or 4% at the distance of
644
+ Callisto (15RJup). While these are encouraging results,
645
+ the smallest detectable satellites would be as large as
646
+ Jupiter due to the already large mass of HR 7672 B. As
647
+ shown in section 4, targeting smaller brown dwarfs and
648
+ planets does not generally allow the detection of moons
649
+ with smaller absolute masses, because the S/N drops
650
+ faster than the mass of the object due to the decreas-
651
+ ing brightness. If satellites around HR 7672 B were to
652
+ orbit within ∼ 10RJup of the brown-dwarf, they would
653
+ likely fall within the Roche radius (See Figure 4). Such
654
+ satellites would be tidally disrupted and likely result in
655
+ the formation of rings around the planet. It is possible
656
+ that this issue would prevent the formation of a reso-
657
+ nant chain of satellites if the inner edge of the decretion
658
+ disk falls within the Roche limit. This is for example
659
+ cited as a possibility to explain the difference between

726
+ 3.1. Simulations
727
+ In this section, we simulate observations from current
728
+ and future instrumentation at the Keck observatory and
729
+ TMT to estimate the properties of putative satellites
730
+ that should be detectable using planetary RVs. We use
731
+ an instrument and observation simulator called PSIsim
732
+ 5, which was first developed for the Planet Systems Im-
733
+ ager (PSI Fitzgerald et al. 2022) instrument concept for
734
+ TMT, and then expanded to include other instruments
735
+ and telescopes. PSIsim is first used to estimate the RV
736
+ precision. Then, RV times series are simulated assuming
737
+ 6 full nights of observations over 25 days, and the ex-
738
+ omoon sensitivity is finally computed using RVSearch.
739
+ These simulations are meant to represent an ideal sce-
740
+ nario in terms of instrument performance and telescope
741
+ time allocation.
742
+ We simulate observations of two substellar compan-
743
+ ions, the brown-dwarf companion HR 7672 B and the
744
+ planet HR 8799 c, with four generations of instru-
745
+ ments.

+ (HISPEC) is expected to provide Y-K (0.98 − 2.46 µm)
847
+ spectroscopy at a spectral resolution of R > 100, 000
848
+ (Mawet et al. 2019).
849
+ The Multi-Object Diffraction-
850
+ limited High-resolution Infrared Spectrograph (MOD-
851
+ HIS) is a similar instrument to HISPEC planned for the
852
+ future TMT. A broader range of exoplanet masses is
853
+ explored in section 4 for this latter TMT instrument.
854
+ PSIsim includes full budgets of the throughput and
855
+ thermal background for each instrument, telescope, and
856
+ the Earth atmosphere.
857
+ The Strehl ratio is calculated
858
+ based on a empirically calibrated model of the adaptive
859
+ optics’ performance under median seeing conditions for
860
+ Maunakea. For KPIC I and KPIC II, we assumed Keck
861
+ AO’s current performance with the infrared Pyramid
862
+ Wavefront Sensor described in Bond et al. (2020). For
863
+ HISPEC, we assumed extreme-AO performance as pre-
864
+ dicted for the upcoming HAKA high-density deformable
865
+ mirror upgrade (W.M. Keck Observatory, private com-
866
+ munication). The star is modeled with a PHOENIX
867
+ model (Husser et al. 2013) and the substellar companion
868
+ with a BT-Settl atmospheric model grid6 (Allard et al.
869
+ 2012a). Table 3 includes the input parameters and the
870
+ predicted RV precision for these simulations. The simu-
871
+ lations include a level of systematics at 1% of the contin-
872
+ uum, which is modeled by an additional white Gaussian
873
+ noise. Otherwise, the estimated RV precision assumes a
874
+ perfect data reduction.

+ open-source python module RVsearch (Rosenthal et al. 2021). (Left) Periodogram of the RV times series shown in Figure 2

+ expressed a ∆BIC comparing a model with and a model without a planet. The empirical detection threshold is indicated in the

+ legend. (Right) Exomoon completeness derived from injection and recovery tests. The periodogram and the completeness are
924
+ shown for two cases: the single full night of observations on 07/04/2022 and all the available data including three additional
925
+ epochs with 1-2 hours of data each. The variable conditions on 07/04/2022 led to HR 7672 B to not be detected during portions
926
+ of the night, or in the RV precision to get significantly worse. By simulating RV time series, we estimate that the lost data only
927
+ affected the final sensitivity by 20%.
928
+ The predictions from PSI-sim are about a factor two
929
+ more sensitive than existing measurements with KPIC I
930
+ (See Table 3). This difference can first be explained by
931
+ uncorrected wavefront errors reducing the throughput,
932
+ both non-common path aberrations and uncorrected at-
933
+ mospheric turbulence.
934
+ Then, our current data analy-
935
+ sis framework remains limited in its ability to model
936
+ KPIC systematics. As explained in subsection 2.2, only
937
+ the redder orders of NIRSPEC are being reduced due
938
+ to strong telluric lines in the bluer orders, and an im-
939
+ perfect Fourier filtering is used to remove the fringing.
940
+ The gap between the simulations and the measurements
941
+ should decrease as observing strategies and data reduc-
942
+ tion frameworks are improved.
943
+ The final expected exomoon sensitivity of the four in-
944
+ struments is shown for the two companions in Figure 4.
945
+ For a fixed time sampling of the RV series, the minimum
946
+ detectable mass ratio is approximately proportional to
947
+ the RV semi amplitude of the signal, which is also pro-
948
+ portional to the RV precision of the instrument, so the
949
+ improvement for each generation of instrument can be
950
+ read from the simulated RV precision shown at the bot-
951
+ tom of Table 3. These simulations are compared to other
952
+ detection techniques in Appendix A, specifically astro-
953
+ metric monitoring of the companion or spatially resolv-
954
+ ing the moon through imaging. We separately discuss
955
+ the possibility of detecting transiting exomoons using
956
+ the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect in subsection 5.2.
957
+ 3.2. Comparing to solar system moons
958
+ The mass ratios of the largest gas giant satellites in
959
+ the solar system are also shown in Figure 4 for compar-
960
+ ison. The higher planet masses, M, of directly imaged
961
+ planets and brown dwarfs compared to the solar sys-
962
+ tem could yield significantly bigger moons, so we also
963
+ include scaled-up mass ratios, q, according to q ∝
964
+
965
+ M
966
+ (Batygin & Morbidelli 2020). While the CPD does scale
967
+ with the Hill Sphere, we do not expect the semi-major
968
+ axis of satellites to depend on this parameter. Indeed,
969
+ young moons are thought to migrate toward the planet
970
+ during their formation due to the interaction with the
971
+ gas. The migration is stopped at the inner radius of the
972
+ CPD which is set by the magnetic field of the planet
973
+ (Batygin & Morbidelli 2020). In this work, we therefore
974
+ keep the semi-major axis of the solar system satellites
975
+ constant. A caveat is that large moons could be suscep-
976
+ tible to tidal forces if they form or migrate too close to
977
+ the planet within the Roche limit. The Roche limit is
978
+ calculated using the mass-radius relationship from Chen
979
+
980
+ 10
981
+ Ruffio et al.
982
+ & Kipping (2017) and their associated Python package7.
983
+ However, this relationship does not account for the fact
984
+ that young objects are likely inflated.

+ 4. FUTURE EXOMOON SENSITIVITY OF
1061
+ TMT/MODHIS
1062
+ Looking to the future, we expect substantial gains
1063
+ in RV precision by using the next generation of high-
1064
+ resolution spectrographs on large telescopes.
1065
+ These
1066
+ 7 https://github.com/chenjj2/forecaster
1067
+ gains in RV precision will lead to enhanced sensitivity
1068
+ to systems with lower mass, close in exomoons, which
1069
+ would form in a similar way to the Galilean moons
1070
+ around Jupiter.
1071
+ Using the same framework as in section 3, we calcu-
1072
+ late the RV sensitivity for a variety of simulated planets
1073
+ that could exist around a host star with the properties
1074
+ of HR 8799 referenced in Table 3. We modeled planets
1075
+ with varying effective temperatures and apparent mag-
1076
+ nitudes, fixing the separation between the planet and
1077
+ star to 700 mas and the surface gravity of the planet to
1078
+ log(g) = 4.5cm.s−2, and used PSIsim to calculate the
1079
+ RV sensitivity. The effect of the starlight contamination
1080
+ on RV sensitivity can be neglected for the type of di-
1081
+ rectly imaged planets that are known today and would
1082
+ be observed with TMT. The RV sensitivity vary by less
1083
+ than 20 percent for planets that lie beyond 500 mas and
1084
+ have a flux ratio greater than ∼ 3 × 10−6.
1085
+ On aver-
1086
+ age, for every 0.5 dex change in surface gravity on the
1087
+ planet, the RV sensitivity changes by ±0.7 m/s. Fig-
1088
+ ure 5 (a) shows the RV sensitivity MODHIS could have
1089
+ for a single, two hour exposure, for planets of varying
1090
+ effective temperatures and apparent magnitudes around
1091
+ an HR 8799 like star. The RV sensitivity of MODHIS
1092
+ driven by the brightness of the planet more than than its
1093
+ temperature. However, the RV sensitivity is decreased
1094
+ for planets with temperatures between 1500 and 1700
1095
+ K using the BT-settl model grid due to the L-T transi-
1096
+ tion. At these temperatures, clouds form in the upper
1097
+ layers of the atmosphere, shrouding detectable spectral
1098
+ lines. For a given planet temperature and magnitude,
1099
+ the RV precision of TMT/MODHIS Figure 5 (a) can
1100
+ be compared to the RV semi amplitude in Figure 5 (b)
1101
+ as a function of the planet mass, the mass ratio, and
1102
+ the period of the satellite. However, such a comparison
1103
+ assumes multiple epochs of observations with a given
1104
+ sensitivity in order to detect a moon with a similar RV
1105
+ semi amplitude.
1106
+ In the following, the surface gravity, temperature, and
1107
+ mass of the planet are treated more self-consistently us-
1108
+ ing BT-Settl evolutionary grids (Allard et al. 2012b).
1109
+ The dependence of the exomoon sensitivity to the num-
1110
+ ber of observations is also made explicit by using simu-
1111
+ lated RV time series. We therefore express the RV pre-
1112
+ cision and exomoon sensitivity as a function of planet
1113
+ mass and distance to the Sun in Figure 6.
1114
+ We fixed
1115
+ the age of the system to different values to represent
1116
+ the parameter space occupied by different populations
1117
+ of stars. The 3 Myr age group is representative of the
1118
+ youngest stars, such as those found in star forming re-
1119
+ gions (e.g. Ophiuchus, Taurus, etc). The 30 Myr age
1120

+ Horologium Associations.
1230
+ The 300 Myr age group is
1231
+ representative of the oldest directly imaged substellar
1232
+ companions. The RV sensitivity decreases the further
1233
+ the system is away at each distinct age. For younger
1234
+ systems, there is larger decrease in sensitivity as the
1235
+ mass of the planet decreases below ∼ 13 MJup.
1236
+ The
1237
+ large decrease in RV sensitivity once the object is below
1238
+ ∼ 13 MJup is due to the onset of deuterium burning for
1239
+ brown dwarfs, which makes them much more luminous
1240
+ than a planet of a similar mass. Another interesting fea-
1241
+ ture in Figure 6 (a) is the apparent independence of the
1242
+ RV precision to the brown dwarf mass above ∼ 13 MJup
1243
+ at 30 Myr. This can be explained by the facts that the
1244
+ RV precision is mostly driven by the brightness of the
1245
+ object, and that brown dwarfs have a similar brightness
1246
+ over a range of masses around this age. Indeed, larger
1247
+ brown dwarfs cool faster than smaller ones resulting in
1248
+ the different cooling curves to meet over a small range
1249
+ of brightness around 30 Myr as illustrated in Figure 7
1250
+ in Burrows et al. (1997).
1251
+ Figure 6 (b) shows the moons that could be detected
1252
+ around a planet from Figure 6 (a) if they were placed
1253
+ at the distance of Callisto. For each planetary mass and
1254
+ distance, we create an RV time series assuming six full
1255
+ eight-hour nights of observations over 25 days with er-
1256
+ ror bars that represent the RV sensitivity calculated by
1257
+ PSIsim.
1258
+ The detection threshold was computed from
1259
+ simulated data created by RVsearch as in section 3.
1260
+ For more massive planets and brown dwarfs, we expect
1261
+ TMT/MODHIS to reach the RV sensitivity needed to
1262
+ look for close in moons with mass ratios smaller than
1263
+ 10−4 around brown-dwarfs, similar to the ones found in
1264
+ the solar system for a median age of 30 Myr. However, to
1265
+ detect moons around lower mass, directly imaged plan-
1266
+ ets of the same age, we are sensitive to mass ratios of
1267
+ 10−3 or larger.
1268
+ 5. DISCUSSION
1269
+ 5.1. The viability of exomoon RV searches
1270
+ Using KPIC, we derive the most sensitive upper limits
1271
+ on the mass ratio of satellites orbiting a high-contrast
1272
+ substellar companion.
1273
+ We rule out satellites larger
1274
+ than 1-4% the mass of the brown dwarf HR 7672 B
1275
+ at separations similar to the Galilean moons.
1276
+ Based
1277
+ on end-to-end simulations, we predict that instruments
1278
+ such as TMT/MODHIS could be two orders of mag-
1279
+ nitude more sensitive. This would be sufficient to de-
1280
+ tect moons forming in the CPD of a planet with mass
1281
+ ratios of ∼ 10−4, albeit with a substantial investment
1282
+ in observing time.
1283
+ If the satellite to planet mass ra-
1284
+ tio grows as q ∝

1368
+ using BT-Settl models (Allard et al. 2012a). The RV sensitivity was predicted using PSIsim for a single, two hour exposure.
1369
+ Both the contour curves and color map indicate the RV sensitivity for a specified effective temperature and apparent magnitude
1370
+ of the model planet. The RV sensitivity relies more on the brightness of the planet than its effective temperature. However, the
1371
+ RV sensitivity decreases for planets with temperatures between 1500 and 1700 K due to the L-T transition. (Right) The RV
1372
+ semi-amplitude for different planet masses and mass ratios. Note, increasing the exposure time will increase the RV sensitivity.
1373
+ the Keck/HISPEC should be sensitive to these objects
1374
+ around brown dwarfs. Any detection with HISPEC, or
1375
+ lack thereof, will therefore already be capable of con-
1376
+ straining CPD formation models. In order to validate
1377
+ our instrument simulations, we compared them with
1378
+ existing observations.
1379
+ The gap in sensitivity can be
1380
+ explained by imperfections in the data reductions. A
1381
+ continued investment in more accurate data processing
1382
+ algorithms or observing strategies is therefore required
1383
+ in order to realize these predictions. Planet variability
1384
+ will also be a challenge to overcome using the different
1385
+ timescales and the wavelength dependence of the vari-
1386
+ ability compared an exomoon signal for example (Van-
1387
+ derburg et al. 2018). Measuring the variability of sub-
1388
+ stellar companions would in fact be an important result
1389
+ of exomoon surveys to better understand the physics of
1390
+ their atmospheres (Biller 2017).
1391
+ Binary formation processes favor high-mass ratios so
1392
+ they would be more easily detectable than the smaller
1393
+ satellites forming by accretion in the CPD. The ma-
1394
+ jority of multiplicity surveys for isolated brown dwarfs
1395
+ (Fontanive et al. 2018), or companion brown dwarfs
1396
+ (Burgasser et al. 2005; Lazzoni et al. 2020), have
1397
+ searched for visual companions, leaving the separation
1398
+ regime of < 1 au underexplored.
1399
+ Figure 5 (b) shows
1400
+ that unresolved binary substellar companion would be
1401
+ detectable with RV precision between 0.1 − 1 km.s−1,
1402
+ which is already routinely achieved with KPIC. As an
1403
+ example, the measured dynamical mass of the brown
1404
+ dwarf companion HD 47127 B suggest that it could be
1405
+ a binary (Bowler et al. 2021), but this specific compan-
1406
+ ion is too faint (K ∼ 18.4) to be a practical target for
1407
+ KPIC.
1408
+ From Appendix A and Figure 7, we conclude that the
1409
+ different detection techniques are sensitive to distinct
1410
+ regions of the parameter space, and therefore comple-
1411
+ mentary, not unlike exoplanet searches.
1412
+ If exomoons
1413
+ follow the model of solar system gas giant satellites, RV
1414
+ searches could be the most promising approach due to
1415
+ its sensitivity to short period moons. However, unless
1416
+ the theoretical prediction that bigger planets form even
1417
+ bigger moons hold true, small satellites with mass ratios
1418
+ ∼ 10−4 might only be detectable around brown dwarfs.

+ (b) Detectable mass ratio
1554
+ Figure 6. RV precision and detectable mass ratio of MODHIS similar to Figure 5, but as a function of planet mass, distance,
1555
+ and age of the system. (Left) BT-Settl evolutionary models (Allard et al. 2012b) were used to infer the mass of the planet and
1556
+ distance to the system at an age of 3, 30, and 300 Myr. The minor contour lines cover an evenly spaced, 50 step log scale from
1557
+ 0 to 1 km/s. RV sensitivity decreases the further the system is away and the lower in mass the planet is. The large decrease in
1558
+ RV sensitivity when the companion mass is below ∼ 13 MJup for young systems is due to the difference in cooling rates between
1559
+ brown dwarfs and planets over time. (Right) The mass ratio detectable by MODHIS assuming a fixed semi major axis for the
1560
+ moon equal to that of Callisto (≈ 26RJup). For each planetary mass and distance from panel (a), we create an RV time series
1561
+ assuming six nights of observations over 25 days with error bars that represent the RV sensitivity calculated by PSIsim.
1562
+ could be easier than detecting its photometric counter-
1563
+ part.
1564
+ An RM event consists of the subsequent masking of a
1565
+ portion of the blue and red-shifted areas of the surface
1566
+ of a spinning object, therefore leading to large and very
1567
+ distinct deviations of the measured RV. The amplitude
1568
+ of the RV signal can be hundreds of times larger than
1569
+ the RV semi amplitude due to the orbital motion of the
1570
+ moon. Its amplitude is proportional to the spin of the
1571
+ planet, which could make it an interesting alternative
1572
+ to detect the smallest moons around rapidly rotating
1573
+ planets and brown dwarfs. Indeed, the RV uncertainties
1574
+ scale with the spin of the object so detecting the orbital
1575
+ signal of small exomoons could be more challenging.
1576
+ The Galilean moons have rather small orbital periods
1577
+ from days to weeks. Assuming a random inclination dis-
1578
+
1579
+ 14
1580
+ Ruffio et al.
1581
+ tribution, the transit probability of a moon (P) is given
1582
+ by the ratio of the planet radius (Rp) and the moon
1583
+ semi-major axis (dm), P = Rp/dm (Borucki & Sum-
1584
+ mers 1984). Therefore, the probability of a transit of
1585
+ a moon at the separation of Io around Jupiter is 1:6,
1586
+ and 1:27 for the farthest Galilean moon Callisto. As-
1587
+ suming a full 8 hour night of observations, we estimate
1588
+ the probability of observing an RM event for Galilean-
1589
+ like moons around a Jupiter like planet to be around 3%
1590
+ for Io, 1% for Europa, 0.3% for Ganymede, and 0.07%
1591
+ for Callisto. However, the orbital periods of the moons
1592
+ would be even shorter around larger substellar compan-
1593
+ ions, which would increase the probabilities up to 17%
1594
+ for Io, 8% for Europa, 2.6% for Ganymede, and 0.6% for
1595
+ Callisto . The transits would last between ∼2-5 hours
1596
+ for the Galilean moons around Jupiter, but they would
1597
+ only last 15-30 minutes for similar moons around HR
1598
+ 7672 B.
1599
+ As an example, a satellite around HR 7672 B with a
1600
+ mass of 1M⊕ (q = 5×10−5) would generate a RM signal
1601
+ of ∼ 300 m.s−1 compared to the ∼ 0.5 m.s−1 generated
1602
+ by the orbital motion (Gaudi & Winn 2007). The am-
1603
+ plitude would be ∼ 5 km.s−1 for a Neptune-size moon.
1604
+ Multiple satellite systems would increase the probability
1605
+ of a detection. Given the low detection probability, RM
1606
+ searches could be carried out in synergy with other sci-
1607
+ ence cases such as brown dwarf variability (Biller 2017).
1608
+ For example, Doppler spectroscopy also favors long ob-
1609
+ servations of rapidly rotating objects, which would make
1610
+ for ideal datasets for exomoon RM searches.
1611
+ 5.3. Searching for Pandora: Habitable exomoons
1612
+ Estimating the occurrence rate of Earth-sized exo-
1613
+ planets in the habitable zone (HZ) of Sun-like star,
1614
+ called η⊕, has been an important goal of exoplanet sur-
1615
+ veys. While such planets remain challenging to detect,
1616
+ the best estimates of η⊕ range between 5 − 50% to date
1617
+ (Gaudi et al. 2021). However, these are not the only
1618
+ Earth-sized objects that could harbor life in the HZ of
1619
+ their stars. Any rocky satellites orbiting HZ gas giant
1620
+ planets could also provide suitable conditions for life.
1621
+ Close-in exomoons can be protected from stellar radia-
1622
+ tion by the strong magnetic field of Jovian mass planets
1623
+ (Heller & Zuluaga 2013).
1624
+ Integrating the distribution of gas giants with an inci-
1625
+ dent flux between 0.3−1.5 times the solar irradiance on
1626
+ Earth for an optimistic habitable zone, or 0.3 − 1 for a
1627
+ conservative habitable zone (Kasting & Harman 2013),
1628
+ yields about 5 − 7 giant planets per hundred FGKM
1629
+ stars. This is using the giant planet (30 − 6000M⊕ sin i)
1630
+ occurrence rates derived from the California Legacy Sur-
1631
+ vey as a function of stellar irradiation (figure 11; Fulton
1632
+ et al. 2021). Given that each planet can have multiple
1633
+ satellites, this could represent a significant number of
1634
+ habitable Earth-size moons that are not accounted for
1635
+ in η⊕. The occurence rate of habitable exomoons could
1636
+ be constrained by measuring the population of satellites
1637
+ around more distant directly imaged planets and brown-
1638
+ dwarfs.
1639
+ 6. CONCLUSION
1640
+ In this work, we aimed at evaluating the prospects
1641
+ for radial velocity (RV) detections of exomoons around
1642
+ self-luminous directly-imaged planets. We used real ob-
1643
+ servations as well as end-to-end simulations of future
1644
+ facilities at the Keck observatory and the Thirty Meter
1645
+ Telescope (TMT). Using data from KPIC, we were able
1646
+ to derive upper limits for satellites orbiting the brown
1647
+ dwarf companion HR 7672 B at a mass ratio of 1−4% for
1648
+ separations similar to the Galilean moons. Current in-
1649
+ strumentation is already sensitive to unresolved binary
1650
+ companions that could form through gravitational in-
1651
+ stability. We demonstrate that future thirty-meter class
1652
+ telescopes will likely push the sensitivity down to the
1653
+ mass ratios of solar system satellites (∼ 10−4), which are
1654
+ thought to form in a circumplanetary disk. We note that
1655
+ second generation instruments like Keck/HISPEC on
1656
+ current ten meter class telescopes might be sufficient to
1657
+ detect these moons if theoretical predictions that larger
1658
+ planets form even larger moons hold true. Everything
1659
+ else being equal and considering the RV signal from the
1660
+ orbital motion of the moon, the deepest exomoon sen-
1661
+ sitivity will be reached for the brightest substellar com-
1662
+ panions with the smallest spin. Small moons could also
1663
+ be detected from their Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) ef-
1664
+ fect on the planetary RV signal. An RM event can be
1665
+ orders of magnitude larger than the orbital signal, albeit
1666
+ with percents level detection probability assuming a full
1667
+ night of observation. We conclude that the detection of
1668
+ exomoons from planetary RV surveys is now becoming
1669
+ a reality thanks to the development of high-resolution
1670
+ spectrographs dedicated to directly imaged planets.

1841
+ A. COMPARING TO OTHER DETECTION METHODS
1842
+ Alternative exomoon detection techniques include astrometry and direct imaging of imaged planets. Figure 7 shows
1843
+ their idealized detection limits to be compared to the RV sensitivity originally presented in Figure 4.
1844
+ With an
1845
+ astrometric precision of 10 − 100 µas (Gravity Collaboration et al. 2021), interferometry with VLTI/GRAVITY could
1846
+ be sensitive to moons further away than radial velocity, but remains limited by the orbital period of the satellite at
1847
+ the furthest separations. The simplified detection limits are computed by matching the astrometric precision (σastro)
1848
+ of VLTI/GRAVITY with the amplitude of the planet astrometric displacement in the sky around the center of mass.
1849
+ The smallest detectable mass ratio (q) is given by
1850
+ q =

1863
+ (A1)
1864
+ with d the distance of the star to the Sun, and sma the semi major axis of the moon. We use the diffraction limit
1865
+ of the telescope to illustrate the parameter space that might be accessible to direct imaging. More specifically, the
1866
+ detection threshold is taken at twice the spatial resolution of the telescope (∼ 2λ/D) with D the diameter of the
1867
+ telescope and λ = 2 µm. Unfortunately, estimating the brightness of low mass objects (< 1MJup) remains challenging
1868
+ and will depend on the age of the system, so we arbitrarily chose a lower limit of one Jupiter mass for Keck and VLTI,
1869
+ and a mass similar to the solar system ice giants for TMT. Direct imaging would be sensitive to the longest periods
1870
+ and largest moons.

+ Abstract—Permanent magnet has a small and compact structure, is especially suitable for a narrow space. With the aid of soft
10
+ iron, the magnetic field can be increased much more and the field uniformity can be well controlled. Most Permanent magnets
11
+ have a symmetry structure; the soft iron can be selected as the float magnet pole to keep its constant scalar potential, and take
12
+ roles as media to collect the direct flux from the permanent blocks, then release indirect flux in magnet aperture and to the
13
+ nearby return yoke. This paper presents the magnetic flux method to design and fabricate a hybrid permanent dipole by using
14
+ axially and radially magnetized permanent blocks. A variable gradient permanent quadrupole and a variable gradient sextupole
15
+ are designed as the extend design examples . They all consist of two nested hybrid permanent rings, where the iron poles are
16
+ used to control the field quality, collect the magnetic flux from the outer ring, block the skew quadrupole and high order
17
+ harmonics.
18
+ Index Terms—Pure permanent magnet, hybrid permanent magnet, direct flux, indirect flux, variable gradient

21
+ 1. Introduction
22
+ Electromagnet or superconducting magnets, with field strength varies along with the beam energy, are widely used in
23
+ modern particle accelerators to bend or focus the particle beams. In some circumstances, where the beam energy is fixed or only
24
+ a little adjustment, permanent magnet will be a better selection, since it has advantages of small space occupation, no cooling
25
+ system, and no operation costs, one time investment can maintain a long time operation.
26
+ Permanent magnet can be made of all permanent blocks or permanent blocks mixed with soft iron, where the former called
27
+ as pure permanent magnet, later called as the hybrid permanent magnet. For pure permanent magnet design, K. Halbach had
28
+ given the design principle in 1980s [1-2]. Each permanent block can be treated as air with the current loops surrounding the
29
+ magnet or as magnetic charges on its surfaces along the easy axis [3-4]. Field strength in magnet aperture is collected the
30
+ contribution in each permanent block by its position and easy axis orientation.
31
+ An important issue is that field strength from the pure permanent magnet is weak compared with electromagnets or
32
+ superconducting magnets. According to reference [1], even with the highest residual field strength, maximum field of a dipole
33
+ that built with pure permanent blocks is less than the remnant field of Br, say about 1.4 T for the highest NdFeB magnetic
34
+ materials. On the other hand, pure permanent magnet needs permanent blocks with different easy axis orientation, that will bring
35
+ fabrication difficulties and increase the cost [5-9]. For a hybrid permanent magnet, on the other hand, with the nonlinear material
36
+ such as iron poles to collect the surrounding magnetic flux and release it into a small compact space, it can reach to a higher
37
+ magnetic field. Another way to increase the field strength is to add more permanent blocks surround the iron pole to add more
38
+ magnetic flux. Variable field permanent magnets can be built by adding auxiliary coils around the iron pole or adding an outer
39
+ concentric permanent ring surround the inner permanent ring [10].
40
+
41
+ 2. Principle of flux method
42
+ Assume a permanent magnet has an infinite length, the 3D case can be treated in 2D case. In 2D analysis, a homogeneously
43
+ magnetized permanent block can be treated as an air space with the surface charge density =Br on its upper and lower
44
+ surfaces or a surface current distribution of density i = Hc around the other four surfaces [3-4]. Hear Br and Hc are the remnant
45
+ field and the coercively of the permanent block respectively, with Br=0Hc. For the hard permanent magnetic material, the slope
46
+ of demagnetized curve in the second quarter is near 1, or μr=1, no extra field contribution from the material magnetization.
47
+ In 2D non-current space, magnetic field can be expressed as the negative gradient of scalar potential as
48
+ V
49
+ 
50
+
51
+ B
52
+ . As shown
53
+ in Fig. 1, in a hybrid permanent magnet, the permanent block can be modeled by charge sheets at the top and bottom surfaces.
54
+ The iron pole has large relative permeability, all the surface of the magnet pole keep a constant scalar potential of V2=V0, the
55
+ return yoke and mid-plane are all kept in zero scalar potential. Since V1 and V2 are in different scalar potential, magnetic field
56
+ will be produced between the magnet pole to the mid-plane or to the return yoke, which call as useful field and stray field
57
+ respectively.

66
+ 2.1 Direct flux φd
67
+ Direct flux is magnetic flux coming from the permanent magnet blocks and deposits on the iron pole, it is the source to
68
+ maintain iron pole in a higher scalar potential. The direct flux to the iron pole is
69
+
70
+
71
+ . (1)
72
+ c is the fraction of magnetic charge σ deposited on the surface of the iron pole, it equals to the scalar potential V at the
73
+ magnetic charges with respect to the potential V0 at the iron pole, D is the width of the permanent block. Assume the scalar
74
+ potential changes uniformly in the permanent block, then
75
+
76
+ .In Fig. 1, the direct flux includes the contributions from the
77
+ positive and the negative charges, which can be expressed as
78
+ , (2)

+
81
+
82
+ ,
83
+
84
+
85
+
86
+
87
+ . If magnet blocks directly touch on the iron pole and leave some space h1 between the
88
+ top yoke, eq. (2) can be written as:
89
+ (
90
+
91
+ )
92
+
93
+ . (3)
94
+ If the permanent block fully occupies the space between the iron pole and top yoke, then the direct flux on the iron pole is:
95
+ . (4)
96
+ In 3d case, the direct flux deposited on the iron pole is:
97
+ , (5)
98
+ S is the surface area of the permanent block.
99
+
100
+ 2.2 Indirect flux φi
101
+ Indirect flux escapes from the iron pole faces to the nearby zero scalar potential areas. As shown in Fig. 2, add permanent
102
+ magnet between the magnet pole and the side yoke, the scalar potential of the iron pole will rise up to V0, the back yoke, the top
103
+ yoke and the mid-plane still keeps zero scalar potential, parasite magnetic field will be produced between the different scalar
104
+ potential areas. Here φi1 is the expected field, φi2 is the demagnetization field for the permanent magnet, φi3 is the nearby leakage
105
+ field, total indirect flux is φi =φi1+φi2 +φi3.
106
+ Assume the expected field B0 keeps constant in the magnet gap, with
107
+
108
+
109
+
110
+ , h0 is half-length of the magnet gap.
111
+ The indirect flux on the mid-plane is
112
+
113
+
114
+
115
+
116
+ . (6)
117
+ In general, indirect flux to nearby zero scalar potential is written as:
118
+
119
+
120
+ . (7)
121
+ S’ is the surface area of the iron pole, h is the distance between the iron pole and the zero potential. Consider the corner
122
+ effect, the scale factor f>1,
123
+
124
+ 2.3 Total magnetic flux
125
+ From ∯ , total magnetic flux around the float iron pole is zero, that is the direct flux deposits on iron pole equals
126
+ to the indirect flux leaves away from the iron pole, which can be expressed as:

151
+ 3. H type hybrid permanent dipole design
152
+ A hybrid permanent dipole was fabricated for magnetic material processing, aimed to produce the field higher than 2.4 T in
153
+ a 7 mm gap. Assume the half gap as h0, the expected magnetic field at the central plane is B0,then the scalar potential on the
154
+ surface of the iron pole is V0=B0h0。Fig. 3 shows the cross section of the upper half magnet, the iron yokes are displayed in
155
+ hatch. The top permanent block is magnetized along the negative y, whereas the side permanent block is radially magnetized
156
+ inward. For the lower half magnet, the side permanent block is radially magnetized outward.
157
+ The direct fluxes come from the top magnetized block and the side radially magnetized permanent ring, which can be written
158
+ as:
159
+
160
+ . (9)
161
+ The indirect fluxes scatter from the iron pole to the nearby zero scalar potential faces, which includes parts to the mid-plane,
162
+ to the top yoke, to the side yoke and to the upper and lower corners. Here selects factor f as 1.9 to contain the corner effects.
163
+ Then total indirect flux is
164
+
165
+
166
+
167
+
168
+
169
+
170
+
171
+ . (10)
172
+ NdFeB N44H material is selected for permanent blocks, the remnant field Br=1.36 T. Other related parameters are: half
173
+ magnet gap h0=3.5 mm, pole tip length h1=10 mm, distance from pole top to mid-plane h2=20 mm, distance between the top of
174
+ the side permanent blocks to the mid-plane h3=30 mm, side yoke height h4=40 mm, pole radius R2=14 mm, pole tip radius R1=5
175
+ mm, radius of the magnet gap R3=32 mm, return yoke thickness 8 mm. Vanadium Iron is select as the magnetic pole, since it
176
+ has high saturated field as Bs=2.2 T, the return yokes are made of DT4 soft iron. By eq. 10, magnetic field produced in the
177
+ mid-plane can reach 2.42 T. OPERA-3d [13] software is used to check the field strength, the calculated peak field on the
178
+ mid-plane is 2.45 T.
179
+ In comparison, three cases were calculated when the top permanent blocks removed or replaced with soft iron. Fig 4 shows
180
+ field differences along the central mid-plane. When the top permanent block was removed, total direct fluxes were reduced,
181
+ field strength on the mid-plane will drop accordingly. What’s more, when the top permanent blocks are replaced with iron, part
182
+ of magnetic flux will directly return the top yoke, the field in the magnet gap will decrease much more.

241
+ 5. Design variable gradient permanent quadrupole by two nested permanent rings
242
+ Variable gradient quadrupole can be built with pure or hybrid permanent magnets. Fig 8 shows a kind of pure permanent
243
+ magnet design, where the variable gradient was realized by the relative rotation between the inner and outer permanent rings,
244
+ field gradient varies from G1-G2 to G1+G2, here G1 and G2 are field gradient of the inner and outer permanent rings respectively.
245
+ The nested pure permanent rings have two disadvantages, they are the lower efficiency and the accompanied skew quadrupole
246
+ components.
247
+ First, permanent blocks in outer rings are much away from the inner, its field contribution are greatly reduced, which needs
248
+ larger size and the cost will increase accordingly. On the other hand, since permanent blocks is similar as air, a skew quadrupole
249
+ component will produce during rotation and cannot be canceled. Skew quadrupole component will give rise to work point drift,
250
+ increase the beam emittance and will eventually affect the beam life time. Same problem exists in reference [15] for two sets of
251
+ nest permanent rings that made of cylindrical permanent rods.
252
+ Another plan is using the hybrid permanent quadrupole, where several permanent blocks are replaced by iron poles, by which
253
+ to control the field quality and concentrate the magnetic flux. Fig. 9 shows a hybrid permanent quadrupole that consists of two
254
+ sets of permanent rings, the variable gradient is realized by the relative rotation between the inner and outer ring.
255
+ In a circular particle accelerator, the ramping period is in a few seconds, gradient changes for a quadrupole can go along with
256
+ that of the beam energy. According to the design idea for the conventional electromagnet, the inner surface of the iron pole in a
257
+ hybrid permanent magnet is selected as a part of hyperbola to increase the field uniformity [14]. The outer circular surface of the
258
+ iron pole is selected as wide enough to collect the magnetic flux from the outer ring. Relative rotation between the two
259
+ permanent rings does not bring extra skew quadrupole components, since the stray field is blocked by the iron pole.

+ 6. Design variable gradient sextupole for small-angle neutron scattering detector
404
+ A variable gradient hybrid permanent sextupole was designed for the Very Small-angle Neutron Scattering instrument
405
+ (VSANS) in the China Spallation Neutron Source Science (CSNS). As shown in Fig. 12, inner permanent ring has 12 permanent
406
+ blocks and 6 Vanadium Iron poles to collect the magnetic fluxes from the inner and outer permanent rings. Magnetization angle
407
+ for each permanent block is 60 degrees relative to its central symmetrical axis, which can contribute 20% field strength compare
408
+ with the 90 degrees from the calculation. For the 12 blocks outer ring, easy axis orientation for each permanent block is parallel
409
+ or perpendicular to its central symmetrical axis. The calculated gradient varies from 7188 T/m2 to19968T/m2 in a rotation recyle
410
+ from 0 to 60 degrees. Fig. 13 shows the 3D simulation field when the outer ring rotated at 60 degrees relative to the inner ring.

+

413
+ dashed areas are the iron poles.

416
+ Fig 13. 3D simulated magnetic filed when the outer permanent ring rotated at 60 degrees.
417
+ For the machnical design, the inner ring is fixed on the support seat by the connected flanges at both ends, the outer ring
418
+ rotates relatve to the inner ring by a set of high speed motors with reduction gearboxes. Each iron pole is a set of 5 mm sliced
419
+ lamated Vanadium Irons with water cooling wholes to get rid of eddy current overheating during the 1.5 kHz high speed rotation.
420
+ From 3d calculation, maximum torque is 220 N.m at 45 degrees rotation for the 200 mm long nested permanent sextupole
421
+ prototype. The 200m long variable gradient sextupole has been fabricated and tested successfully.
422
+
423
+ 7 . Conclusion
424
+ In a symmetrical hybrid permanent magnet, the mid-plane can be treated as the reference zero scalar potential, whereas the
425
+ iron pole is looked as high scalar potential to collect the magnetic flux and release to the low potential area. This paper presents
426
+ how it possible to produce the expected field by using magnetic fluxes method for hybrid permanent magnet design. Through

437
+ theoretical calculation and 3D field simulation, a permanent dipole with field strength higher than 2.4 T was fabricated and tested.
438
+ Variable gradient nested permanent quadrupole or sextupole can also be realized by using iron poles to collect the magnetic flux
439
+ and block the high order harmonics from the outer ring. For its small, compact and low operation cost, hybrid permanent magnet
440
+ can find more applications in areas such as particle accelerator, motor, medical equipment and material research.

+ Abstract
13
+ In this article, a thorough characterization of the configuration com-
14
+ posed by two concentric jets at a low Reynolds number is presented. The
15
+ analysis comprises a layout with a wide range for the velocity ratio be-
16
+ tween the inner and outer jets, defined within the interval [0, 2], and also
17
+ details the influence of the distance between jets, where the wall thick-
18
+ nesses separating the two jets is [0.5, 4].
19
+ Global linear stability analy-
20
+ sis identifies the most significant modes driving the changes in the flow
21
+ dynamics. The neutral lines revealing the critical Reynolds number con-
22
+ nected to the presence of the main (steady and unsteady) flow bifurcations,
23
+ which are presented by global azimuthal modes, show the high complexity
24
+ of the problem under study, where hysteresis and other types of complex
25
+ cycles are pointed out. Finally, the mode interaction is analysed, high-
26
+ lighting the presence of travelling waves emerging from the interaction
27
+ of steady states, and the existence of robust heteroclinic cycles that are
28
+ asymptotically stable. The high level of detail in the results presented,
29
+ makes this work as a reference for future research development in the field
30
+ of concentric jets.

+ transitional zone and (iii) merged zone, as presented in fig. 1, that follows the
71
+ initial sketch presented by [12]. In the initial merging zone (i), just at the exit
72
+ of the two jets, two axisymmetric shear layers (inner and outer boundary layer)
73
+ develop and start to merge. In this region, we distinguish the inner and outer
74
+ shear layers, related with the inner and outer jet stream. Then, most of the
75
+ mixing occurs in the transitional zone (ii), that extends until the external shear
76
+ layer reaches the centreline. Finally, in the merged zone (iii), the two jets are
77
+ totally merged, modelling a single jet flow.
78
+ Several parameters define the characteristic of this flow: the inner and outer
79
+ jet velocities, the jet diameters, the shape and thickness of the wall separating
80
+ both jets, the Reynolds number, the boundary layer state and thickness at
81
+ the jet exit and the free stream turbulence. Based on these parameters, it is
82
+ possible to identify several types of flow behaviour, which can be related with
83
+ the presence of flow instabilities.
84
+ Ko & Kwan (1976) [12] postulated that the double concentric jet configura-
85
+ tion could be considered as a combination of single jets. Nevertheless, Dahm et
86
+ al. (1992) [7] revealed by means of flow visualizations, several topology patterns
87
+ as function of the outer/inner jet velocity ratio, reflecting that the dynamics of
88
+ 2
89
+
90
+ the inner and outer jet shear layers were different from that in a single jet. More-
91
+ over, this study exhibited a complex interaction between vortices identified in
92
+ both shear layers, affecting the instability mechanism of the flow. Buresti et
93
+ al. (1992) [4] found that the outer shear layer dominated the flow dynamics for
94
+ cases in which the outer velocity was much larger than the inner velocity. These
95
+ authors also detected the presence of an alternate vortex shedding when the
96
+ wall thickness between the two jets was sufficiently large. The same mechanism
97
+ was recognised by other authors [7, 20]. Rehab et al. (1997) [25] studied in
98
+ detail the flow differences as function of the outer/inner velocity ratio, finding
99
+ two different flow regimes when the external jet diameter is much larger than
100
+ the internal jet one. When the outer/inner velocity ratio was larger than a crit-
101
+ ical value, the authors spotted a low frequency recirculation bubble at the jet
102
+ outlet. On the contrary, for outer/inner velocity ratio smaller than such critical
103
+ value, the outer (still fast) jet excites the inner jet, which ends oscillating at the
104
+ same frequency as the external jet. This is known as the lock-in phenomenon.
105
+ Moreover, the oscillation frequency detected was similar to the one defined by a
106
+ Kelvin-Helmholtz flow instability, which is generally encountered in single jets.
107
+ This lock-in phenomenon was also identified by other authors [7, 6].
108
+ Following previous works [4, 7, 20] and paying especial attention to the sep-
109
+ arating wall thickness and the vortex shedding located behind the wall, Wallace
110
+ & Redekopp (1992) [33] showed that the wall thickness and sharpness change
111
+ the characteristic of the jet. Segalini & Talamelli (2011) [26] performed exper-
112
+ iments to inspect in detail the effects of the outer/inner velocity ratio and the
113
+ wall thickness in double concentric jets. These authors found that for small
114
+ outer/inner velocity ratios, the inner jet presents its own flow instability in the
115
+ shear layer, while a different flow instability was identified in the outer jet. On
116
+ the contrary, for large outer/inner velocity ratios, the outer shear layer drives the
117
+ flow dynamics, forcing the inner shear layer to oscillate with the same frequency,
118
+ occurring in the lock-in phenomenon previously mentioned. Finally, for similar
119
+ outer/inner velocity ratios, a Von K´arm´an vortex street was detected near the
120
+ separating wall, as also depicted by other authors [4, 7, 20]. A wake instability
121
+ affected the inner and outer shear layers, reversing the lock-in phenomenon.
122
+ Different configurations can also be found, changing the velocity ratio be-
123
+ tween jets. Williams et al. (1969) [34] worked on the influence of the exte-
124
+ rior/interior velocity ratio on noise attenuation, which was analysed experimen-
125
+ tally. It was observed that for some given configurations, more noise attenuation
126
+ was present than for the others, with a maximum between 12 and 15dB.
127
+ Talamelli & Gavarini (2006) [31] performed a local linear stability analysis,
128
+ finding that for specific wall thickness, the vortex shedding identified behind
129
+ the wall, can be related with an absolute instability that exists for some specific
130
+ outer/inner velocity ratios. The authors explained that this absolute instabil-
131
+ ity may trigger the destabilization of the flow field. This theoretical work was
132
+ verified experimentally by [21]. These authors showed once more that the wake
133
+ behind the wall separating the two jets creates a vortex shedding driving the
134
+ frequency of the external shear layer also controlling the evolution of the inner
135
+ shear layer, which can be the mechanism that triggers a global absolute insta-
136
+ 3
137
+
138
+ bility. This passive mechanism can be considered as a potential tool for flow
139
+ control, delaying the transition to turbulence by means of controlling the near
140
+ field of the jet. Recently, Canton et al. (2017) [5] performed a global linear sta-
141
+ bility analysis to study more in detail this vortex shedding mechanism behind
142
+ the wall. They examined a concentric jet configuration with a very small wall
143
+ thickness (0.1Di, with Di the inner jet diameter), but the authors selected an
144
+ outer/inner velocity ratios where it was known that the alternate vortex shed-
145
+ ding behind the wall was driving the flow. A global unstable mode (absolute
146
+ instability) with azimuthal wavenumber m = 0 was found, confirming that the
147
+ primary instability was axisymmetric (the modes with m = 1, 2 were stable at
148
+ the flow conditions at which the study was carried out). The highest intensity
149
+ of the global mode was located in the wake of the jet, composed by an array
150
+ of counter-rotating vortex rings. The shape of the mode changes when moving
151
+ along its neutral curve, revealing through the numerical simulations a Kelvin-
152
+ Helmholtz instability over the shear-layer between the two jets and in the outer
153
+ jet at high Reynolds numbers. Nevertheless, the authors showed that the wave-
154
+ maker was located in the bubble formed upstream the separating wall, in good
155
+ agreement with the results presented by [32], who performed a similar stability
156
+ analysis in a two-dimensional configuration (wakes with co-flow).
157
+ The stability of annular jets, a limit case where the inner jets have zero
158
+ velocity, has also been investigated. In different analysis of annular jets [3, 17],
159
+ it has been illustrated that this type of axisymmetric configuration does not
160
+ behave as it appears. The m = 0 modes studied have been shown to be stable,
161
+ and the dominant mode found by both studies is helical (m = 1). In addition,
162
+ to characterise the annular jet, these investigations analyse the behaviour of
163
+ the case by adding an azimuthal component to the inflow velocity, making the
164
+ discharge of the annular jet eddy-like, comparing the evolution of the frequency
165
+ and growth rate of this m = 1 mode.
166
+ This paper expands on the work done by [5], where they use a specific ge-
167
+ ometry and vary the outer/inner velocity ratio. This paper presents a complete
168
+ characterisation of the main global modes identified in two concentric jets. The
169
+ wall thicknesses separating the two jets are defined in the interval L ∈ [0.5, 4],
170
+ and the flow is simulated for different inside/outside velocity ratios in the in-
171
+ terval Ui/Uo ∈ [0, 2], where the case with Ui/Uo = 0 represents an annular
172
+ jet. Global modes with azimuthal wavenumber m = 0 (axisymmetric modes),
173
+ m = 1 and m = 2 will be searched for. As identified in the literature [17, 3],
174
+ no axisymmetric modes (m = 0) could be identified for any of the distances, as
175
+ this is a helical case. This paper expands the conclusions found in these two
176
+ previous works, extending the results to different wall thicknesses between jets.
177
+ This part of the paper studies in detail the configuration of two concentric jets
178
+ at low Reynolds numbers. Using a linear approximation of the equations that
179
+ model the flow, the base flows will be obtained on which to apply the linear
180
+ stability analysis, by means of which it is possible to identify the most relevant
181
+ modes that influence the flow dynamics.
182
+ This work also performs a study of mode selection, as some configurations
183
+ presents interactions between different modes.
184
+ Different analysis have been
185
+ 4
186
+
187
+ done to know the different coherent structures when there is an interaction
188
+ between modes. [30] conducted the study on the flow past a rotating sphere,
189
+ finding different coherent structures on a triple-Hopf bifurcation. Some of these
190
+ configurations are steady states, travelling waves or rotating waves.
191
+ To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first time that the characterisation
192
+ of two concentric jets is presented with such level of detail, presenting neutral
193
+ curves for a wide range of different configurations, as well as providing a deep
194
+ understanding of the flow physics through the interaction between the different
195
+ modes.
196
+ The article is organized as follows. Section 2 defines the problem and the
197
+ governing equations for the double concentric jets, as well as the linear sta-
198
+ bility equations and the methodology for mode selection. The axisymmetric
199
+ steaty-state is characterised in Section 3. In Section 4, we perform a parametric
200
+ exploration in terms of the velocity ratio between the jets and the jet distance
201
+ in order to determine the neutral curves of global stability. The results about
202
+ the mode selection are discussed in Section 5. Finally, Section 6 summarises the
203
+ main conclusions.

+ Problem formulation
206
+ 2.1
207
+ Computational domain and general equations
208
+ The computational domain, represented in fig. 2, models a coaxial flow configu-
209
+ ration, which is composed of two inlet regions, an inner and outer pipe, both of
210
+ diameter D and length 5D, i.e. zmin = −5D. The computational domain has
211
+ an extension of zmax = 50D and rmax = 25D. The distance between the pipes
212
+ is equal to L, measured from the inner face of the outer tube to the face of the
213
+ inner jet.
214
+ The governing equations of the flow within the domain are the incompressible
215
+ Navier–Stokes equations. These are written in cylindrical coordinates (r, θ, z),
216
+ which are made dimensionless by considering D as the reference length scale
217
+ and Wo,max as the reference velocity scale, which is the maximum velocity in
218
+ the outer pipe at z = zmin.

+ The dimensionless velocity vector U = (U, V, W) is composed of the radial,
230
+ azimuthal and axial components, P is the dimensionless-reduced pressure, the
231
+ dynamic viscosity ν and the viscous stress tensor τ(U).
232
+ The incompressible Navier–Stokes equations eq. (1) are complemented with
233
+ the following boundary conditions

256
+ The parameter δu corresponds to the velocity ratio between the two jets, defined
257
+ as δu = Wi,max/Wo,max. The parameters bo and bi represent the boundary layer
258
+ thickness within the nozzle, which are fixed equal to 5 (as in [5]). There is a
259
+ weak influence of the boundary layer thickness on the stability properties of
260
+ the jet, and it is related to the vortex shedding regime developed upstream the
261
+ separation wall (more details may be found in [31]). Finally, no-slip boundary
262
+ condition is set on Γwall and stress-free (

268
+ In the sequel, Navier–Stokes equations eq. (1) and the associated boundary
269
+ conditions will be written symbolically under the form
270
+ B∂Q
271
+ ∂t = F(Q, ) ≡ LQ + N(Q, Q) + G(Q, η),
272
+ (3)
273
+ with the flow state vector Q = [U, P]T , η = [Re, δu]T . Such a form of the
274
+ governing equations takes into account a linear dependency on the state variable
275
+ Q through L. And a quadratic dependency on the parameters and the state
276
+ variable through operators G(·, ·) and N(·, ·).

280
+ Linear stability analysis
281
+ In this study, the authors attempt to characterize the stable asymptotic state
282
+ from the spectral properties of the Navier–Stokes equations eq. (1). First, let us

+ z=Zmarconsider the stability of an axisymmetric steady-state solution named Q0, which
294
+ will be also referred to as trivial steady-state. For that purpose, let evaluate
295
+ a solution of eq. (1) in the neighbourhood of the trivial steady state, i.e., a
296
+ perturbed state as follows,
297
+ Q(x, t) = Q0(x, t) + εˆq(r, z)e−i(ωt−mθ).
298
+ (4)
299
+ The next step consists in the characterization of the dynamics of small-amplitude
300
+ perturbations around this base flow by expanding them over the basis of linear
301
+ eigenmodes (4). If there is a pair [iωℓ, ˆqℓ] with Im(ωℓ) > 0 (resp. the spectrum
302
+ is contained in the half of the complex plane with negative real part) there ex-
303
+ ists a basin of attraction in the phase space where the trivial steady-state Q0 is
304
+ unstable (resp. stable) [11]. The eigenpair [iωℓ, ˆqℓ] is determined as a solution
305
+ of the following eigenvalue problem,
306
+ J(ωℓ,mℓ)ˆq(zℓ) =
307
+

319
+ subscript mℓ indicates the azimuthal wavenumber used for the evaluation of the
320
+ operator. In the following, we account for eigenmodes ˆq(zℓ)(r, z) that have been
321
+ normalised in such a way ⟨ˆu(zℓ), ˆu(zℓ)⟩L2 = 1.
322
+ 2.2.2
323
+ Methodology for the study of mode selection
324
+ In the following, we briefly outline the main aspects of the methodology em-
325
+ ployed in the study of mode interaction, a comprehensive explanation is left to
326
+ appendix A. The determination of the attractor or coherent structure is explored
327
+ within the framework of equivariant bifurcation theory. The trivial steady-state
328
+ is axisymmetric, i.e. the symmetry group is the orthogonal group O(2). Near
329
+ the onset of the instability, dynamics can be reduced to those of the centre
330
+ manifold. Particularly, due to the non-uniqueness of the manifold one can al-
331
+ ways look for its simplest polynomial expression, which is known as the normal
332
+ form of the bifurcation. The reduction to the normal form is carried out via a
333
+ multiple scales expansion of the solution Q of eq. (3). The expansion considers
334
+ a two scale development of the original time t �→ t + ε2τ, here ε is the order of
335
+ magnitude of the flow disturbances, assumed to be small ε ≪ 1. In this study
336
+ we carry out a normal form reduction via a weakly non-linear expansion, where
337
+ the small parameters are

350
+ A fast timescale t of the self-sustained instability and a slow timescale of the
351
+ evolution of the amplitudes zi(τ) are also considered in eq. (10), for i = 1, 2, 3.
352
+ The ansatz of the expansion is as follows
353
+ Q(t, τ) = Q0 + εq(ε)(t, τ) + ε2q(ε2)(t, τ) + O(ε3).

355

356
+
357
+ Herein, we evaluate the mode interaction between two steady symmetry break-
358
+ ing states with azimuthal wave number m1 = 1 and m2 = 2, that is,

401
+ Numerical methodology for stability tools
402
+ Results presented herein follow the same numerical approach adopted by [9,
403
+ 28, 27, 30], where a comparison with DNS can be found. The calculation of
404
+ the steady-state, the eigenvalue problem and the normal form expansion are
405
+ implemented in the open-source software FreeFem++. Parametric studies and
406
+ generation of figures are collected by StabFem drivers, an open-source project
407
+ available in https://gitlab.com/stabfem/StabFem. For steady-state, stabil-
408
+ ity and normal form computations, we set the stress-free boundary condition at
409
+ the outlet, which is the natural boundary condition in the variational formula-
410
+ tion.
411
+ The resolution of the steady nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations is tackled
412
+ by means of the Newton method. While, the generalised eigenvalue problem
413
+ (eq. (24)) is solved following the Arnoldi method with spectral transformations.
414
+ The normal form reduction procedure of section 2.2.2 only requires to solve a
415
+ set of linear systems, which is also carried out within StabFem. On a standard
416
+ laptop, every computation considered below can be attained within a few hours.

500
+ The
501
+ diagram of the second row on the left displays the minimum value within the
502
+ domain of the axial velocity. It is spatially localised within the recirculating
503
+ region for δu < 0.5 and near the middle wall for larger values of the velocity
504
+ ratio. Meridional projections of the axisymmetric streamfunction isolines and
505
+ the axial velocity contour in a range of (z, r) ∈ [−1, 5] × [0, 5].
506
+ synthesises the main topological changes experiences by the steady-state. At
507
+ δu = 0, the solution (point (a) in fig. 3) represents an annular jet, which diffuses
508
+ as it travels downstream and enters the ambient fluid. This figure illustrates
509
+ that the solution curve can be divided into three segments. The first segment
510
+ comprised between 0 ≤ δu < δ1
511
+ u is characterised by an inner jet nearly trapped
512
+ by a large recirculation region with a characteristic length Lr, which remains
513
+ almost constant with the velocity ratio.
514
+ In the second region, which ranges between δ1
515
+ u < δu < δ2
516
+ u and it is represented
517
+ as a shaded area in the figure, the recirculating region rapidly reduces its size.
518
+ In this region, the axial velocity of the inner jet is comparable with the axial
519
+ velocity observed in the recirculating region, which promotes mixing between
520
+ both regions.
521
+ As the velocity ratio is increased, the inner jet is sufficiently
522
+ 9
523
+
524
+ energetic to break the recirculating region, which occurs between point (c) and
525
+ (d) in fig. 3. The final segment, that ranges between δu > δ2
526
+ u, is characterised
527
+ by two quasi-planar jets that rapidly mix to form a larger one at around z ≈ 5.

529
+ Linear stability analysis
530
+ We explore the parameter space (Re, δu, L). Herein, we examine the velocity
531
+ ratio between the jets (0 < δu < 2) and the distance between the jets (0.5 <
532
+ L < 4). Within this range of parameters, we have analysed the linear stability
533
+ properties of the flow configuration. For this purpose, we first investigate the
534
+ influence of the jet distance on the stability for the case of the annular jet
535
+ (δu = 0).
536
+ These findings are summarized in fig. 4 which displays the evolution of the
537
+ critical Reynolds number with respect to the distance (L) for the four most un-
538
+ stable modes: two steady modes with azimuthal wavenumber m = 1 and m = 2,
539
+ hereinafter referred to as modes S1 and S2, respectively. A cross-section view at
540
+ z = 1 is displayed in fig. 4 (a-b). The other two unsteady modes, named F1 and
541
+ F2 have respectively azimuthal wavenumbers m = 1 and m = 2. A cross-section
542
+ view of these two modes is displayed in fig. 4 (c-d). Please note that for the
543
+ chosen set of parameters the axisymmetric unsteady mode F0, is always found
544
+ at larger Reynolds numbers than the aforementioned modes. This is one of the
545
+ major differences with the case studied by [5], for small values of the jet distance
546
+ L, the dominant instability is an unsteady axisymmetric one, which would be
547
+ named F0 with our nomenclature. Thus, in the following, we only include the
548
+ results for the S1, S2, F1 and F2 modes. The primary instability of the annular
549
+ jet is then a steady symmetry-breaking bifurcation that leads to a jet flow with
550
+ a single symmetry plane, displayed in fig. 4 (a). On the contrary, bifurcations
551
+ that lead to the mode S2 possess two orthogonal symmetry planes, see fig. 4 (b).
552
+ As indicated in fig. 4 (g-h), these two stationary modes S1 and S2 are localised
553
+ within the recirculation bubble. For jet distances L < 2, the second mode that
554
+ bifurcates is F1 mode, depicted in fig. 4 (i). This situation corresponds to a
555
+ bifurcation scenario similar to other axisymmetric flow configurations, such as
556
+ the flow past a sphere or a disk [2, 14]. For larger distances between jets, the
557
+ scenario changes. The second bifurcation from the axisymmetric steady-state is
558
+ the F2, displayed in fig. 4 (j). Other configurations where the primary or sec-
559
+ ondary instability involves modes with azimuthal component m = 2 are swirling
560
+ jets [15] and the wake flow past a rotating sphere [29]. The unsteady modes
561
+ F1 and F2 possess a much larger spatial support than S1 and S2. They are
562
+ formed by an array of counter-rotating vortex spirals developing in the wake of
563
+ the separating duct wall. For the mode F2 the amplitude of these structures
564
+ grows downstream of the nozzle, in the axial direction, with a maximum around
565
+ z ≈ 10, after which they slowly decay. The mode F1 grows further downstream,
566
+ with a maximum around z ≈ 50. The spatial structure of these eigenmodes
567
+ resembles the axisymmetric mode of Figure 9 in [5]. Thus, the steady modes
568
+ and unsteady modes differ in their spatial support, that is, even though both

791
+ steady and unsteady modes are localised in space, the support of the steady
792
+ ones is confined within the recirculation bubble. Instead, the unsteady modes
793
+ are convected far downstream until they reach a maximum. This latter char-
794
+ acteristic is classical of modes with a large transient growth, as it was noticed
795
+ by [5]. On the other hand, the nature of the steady modes is similar to the
796
+ symmetry-breaking instabilities behind the disk or the sphere. These modes are
797
+ far less sensitive to transient growth and are observable with direct numerical
798

802
+ Fixed distance between jets and variable velocity ratio
803
+ δu
804
+ In the following, we focus on the influence of the velocity ratio δu between jets
805
+ for fixed jet distances L. Figure 5 displays the neutral curve of stability for
806
+ jet distances (a) L = 0.5 and (b) L = 1. One may observe that the primary
807
+ bifurcation is not always associated to the mode S1 as it is the case for δu = 0.
808
+ For sufficiently large velocity ratios, the primary instability leads to a non-
809
+ axisymmetric steady-state with a double helix.
810
+ Another interesting feature,
811
+ which could motivate a control strategy, is the occurrence of vertical asymptotes.
812
+ This sudden change in the critical Reynolds number is due to the retraction
813
+ and disappearance of the recirculating region. For L = 0.5, this sudden change
814
+ occurs for δu ≈ 0.25, and for higher values of δu the critical Reynolds number
815
+ is around twice larger than the one of the annular jet (δu = 0). The case of jet
816
+ distance L = 1 was discussed in section 3. The sudden change in the stability
817
+ of the branch S1 occurs between δu ∈ [0.25, 0.5]. Within this narrow interval,
818
+ the primary branch of instability is the F1. At around δu = 0.4, the primary
819
+ bifurcation is again the branch F1, which becomes secondary at around δu ≈ 0.8
820
+ in favour of the branch S2. In fig. 5 we have highlighted the codimension two
821
+ point interaction between the S1 −S2 modes, whose modes are depicted in fig. 5
822
+ (c-d), which will be analysed in detail in section 5. Around this point, we can
823
+ observe the largest stabilisation ratio between the annular jet (δu = 0) and a
824
+ configuration of concentric jets (δu ̸= 0).
825

826
+ Fixed velocity ratio δu and variable distance between
827
+ jets
828
+ Figure 6 compares the results obtained for a constant velocity ratio when vary-
829
+ ing the distance between jets. As observed before, the solution becomes more
830
+ unstable by increasing the distance between jets. The largest critical Reynolds
831
+ number is found at δu = 0.
832
+ The critical Reynolds decreases with the dis-
833
+ tance between jets L. The points of codimension two, i.e., the points where
834
+ mode switching occurs, are highlighted in fig. 6. We can appreciate that the
835
+ interaction between the branch S1 and S2 happens for every velocity ratio δu
836
+ explored, and it is the mode interaction associated to the smallest distance be-
837
+ tween jets. Additionally, for a velocity ratio δu = 0.5 there exists two points
838
+ where the branches of the linear modes S1 and F1 intersect. Another feature
839
+ of the neutral curves is the existence of turning points, which are associated
840
+ to the existence of saddle node bifurcations of the axisymmetric steady-state.
841
+ The saddle node bifurcations of the steady-state induces the existence of regions
842
+ in the neutral curves with a tongue shape. These saddle node bifurcations are
843
+ also responsible for the formation of the vertical asymptotes observed in fig. 5.
844
+ Finally, it is of interest the transition of the modes S1 and S2, which induce
845
+ the symmetry breaking of the axisymmetric steady state to slow low frequency
846
+ spiralling structures. These modes have been identified for δu = 0.5 for m = 1,
847
+ δu = 1 for m = 2, and δu = 2 for both m = 1 and m = 2. As it will be clari-

952

954
+ interaction that occurs at the largest critical Reynolds number for any value of
955

957

958

959

+ Finally, we consider a third normal form equivalent to the previous ones but

1071

+ In this final representation standing wave solutions are contained within the
1098

1099
+ y �→ −y, one can restrict attention, without loss of generality, to solutions with
1100
+ y ≥ 0, cf [23].
1101
+ The system eq. (14) possess four types of fixed points, which are listed in
1102
+ table 1.
1103
+ First, the axisymmetric steady state (O) is represented by (r1, r2) = (0, 0), so
1104
+ it is the trivial steady-state of the normal form. The second steady-state is what
1105
+ it is denoted as pure mode (P). In the original coordinates, it corresponds to the
1106
+ symmetry breaking structure associated to the mode S2. This state bifurcates
1107
+ from the axisymmetric steady state (O) when λ(s,2) = 0. The third fixed point
1108
+ is the mixed mode state (MM), which is listed in table 1. It corresponds to
1109
+ the reflection symmetry preserving state associated to the mode S1. It may
1110
+ bifurcate directly from the trivial steady state O, when λ(s,1) = 0 or from P
1111
+ whenever σ+ = 0 or σ− = 0, where σ± is defined as

+ Finally, the fourth fixed point of the system are travelling waves (TW). It is
1189
+ surprising that the interaction between two steady-states causes a time-periodic
1190
+ solution. The travelling wave emerges from MM in parity-breaking pitchfork
1191

1240

1243

1244

+ connecting pure modes, there exists more complex limit cycles connecting O,

1295
+ the velocity ratio and the jet distance, the interaction is not purely stationary;
1296
+ at least one of the linear modes oscillates with a slow frequency. It implies that
1297
+ the mode selection for large velocity ratios near the codimension two points is
1298
+ similar to the one reported by [15] for swirling jets. However, even when the two
1299

1300
+ azimuthal wavenumbers induces a slow frequency, what we denote as travelling
1301

1302
+ We consider the bifurcation sequence for δu = 1.0 and L = 1.15, which
1303
+ is qualitatively similar to transitions in the range 0.5 < δu < 1.5, near the
1304
+ codimension two points, which are depicted in fig. 8. At the codimension two
1305
+ points for δu < 0.5, at least one of the two bifurcations is sub-critical and a
1306
+ normal form reduction up to fifth order is necessary. Subcritical transition was
1307

1421
+ A secondary bifurcation, denoted

1423

1424
+ at the bifurcation, thus this is not a Hopf bifurcation. It corresponds to a drift
1425

1426
+ This unusual feature, that travelling waves bifurcate from a steady solution at a
1427

1428

1429

1431

1435

1436

+ The locus of BifMT W −Ht is reported in fig. 9 and in
1443
+ good agreement with [1]. The conditions for the existence of the heteroclinic
1444
+ cycles are listed in table 3. When σ− becomes negative, the cycle is attracting
1445
+ and robust heteroclinic cycles are observed. It is destroyed when σ+ becomes
1446
+ negative, in that case the pure modes are no longer saddles which breaks the
1447
+ heteroclinic connection. Figure 11 displays the instantaneous fluctuation field
1448
+ from a heteroclinic orbit connecting P and its conjugate solution P’, which is
1449
+ obtained by a rotation of π/2, for parameter values Re = 200 and δu = 0.8. The
1450
+ dynamics of the cycle takes place in two phases. Figure 11 depicts the motion
1451
+ of the coherent structure associated to the heteroclitic cycle. Starting from the
1452
+ conjugated pure mode P’, the cycle leaves the point (a), located in the vicinity
1453
+ of P’, along the unstable eigenvector y, which is the stable direction of P. The
1454
+ first phase consists in a rapid rotation by π/2 of the wake, it corresponds to the
1455
+ sequence a-b-c-d-e displayed in fig. 11. Then it is followed by a slow approach
1456
+ following the direction y and departure from the pure mode state P along the
1457
+ direction r1.
1458
+ The second phase consists in a rapid horizontal motion of the
1459
+ wake, which is an evolution from P to P’ that takes place by the breaking of
1460
+ the reflectional symmetry with respect to the vertical axis; it constitutes the
1461
+ sequence e-f-g-h-i-a. Please note that equivalent motions are also possible. The

+ Discussion & Conclusions
1534
+ This article achieves a complete description of the configuration consisting of
1535
+ two coaxial jets, broadly found in industrial processes, covering a wide range
1536
+ of applications such as noise reduction, mixing enhancement, or combustion
1537
+ control.
1538
+ The numerical procedure herein employed has been validated with
1539
+ the existing literature in the case of the stability analysis (see B for a detailed
1540
+ overview), and compared to DNS results, as done in [30]. The analysis comprises
1541
+ a layout with a wide range of the velocity ratio (δu = Ui/Uo) between the jets,
1542
+ from δu = 0 to δu = 2, as well as the distance between jets (L) enclosing values
1543
+ from L = 0.5 to L = 4, substantially expanding the work of [5].
1544
+ A linear stability analysis reveals the most significant modes, consisting of
1545
+ two steady modes (S1 and S2, located within the recirculation bubble) and two
1546
+ unsteady ones (F1 and F2, evolving as a transient growth in the downstream
1547
+ direction).
1548
+ The critical Reynolds number is determined for a wide range of
1549
+ velocity and distance ratios, starting with the influence of the velocity ratio.
1550
+ As the relation between inner and outer velocities grows, the flow is stabilised,
1551
+ increasing the critical Reynolds number. The primary instability swaps from
1552
+ mode S1, characterised with one symmetry plane, to mode S2 that possesses
1553
+ two symmetry planes. An abrupt divergence in the critical Reynolds number is
1554
+ captured, associated with the vanishing of the recirculation region, that could
1555
+ suggest a stability control strategy.
1556
+ Subsequently, the effect of the distance
1557
+ L between jets is analysed. The primary effect of increasing this distance is
1558
+ a decrease in the critical Reynolds number for all values of δu investigated.
1559
+ Additionally, the existence of saddle node bifurcations, that swap the most
1560
+ unstable mode of the flow, generates turning points in the neutral curve.
1561
+ The investigated bifurcation scenario starts from the codimension point, with
1562
+ an axisymmetric steady state located at a velocity ratio δu = 1.0 and distance
1563
+ between jets of L = 1.15. It is qualitatively equivalent to transitions found in
1564
+ the range 0.5 < δu < 1.5. It reveals a break of the axisymmetry for values higher
1565
+ than δu = 1.0, presenting a steady state as a pure mode P with two orthogonal
1566
+ planes of symmetry. For values lower than δu = 1.0, the bifurcation diagram
1567
+ exhibits a slightly complicated path. Firstly, it drives into a Mixed-Mode (MM)
1568
+ solution presenting a non-symmetric wake, that is only stable for a small range
1569
+ of the Reynolds number.
1570
+ Subsequently, a slowly rotating wake is triggered
1571
+ in the form of a Travelling Wave (TW). This unusual feature, an unsteady
1572
+ state emerging from a steady state, corresponds to a drift instability commonly
1573
+ found at 1 : 2 resonance. Then, the TW solution encounters a Hopf bifurcation,
1574
+ developing a quasi-periodic solution in the form of a Modulated Travelling Wave
1575
+ (MTW). Finally, the MTW solution undergoes a global bifurcation meeting a
1576
+ 23
1577
+
1578
+ heteroclinic cycle (Ht).
1579
+ This heteroclinic orbit links the solution P with its
1580
+ conjugate solution P’, spinning the wake from P’ to P, and moving it horizontally
1581
+ from P to P’.

+ In this section we provide a detail explanation of the normal form reduction to

1600
+ The nonlinear convective operator N(Q1, Q2) = U1 · ∇U2 accounts for the
1601
+ quadratic interaction on the state variable. The linear operator on the state
1602
+ variable is LQ = [∇P, ∇·U]T . The remaining term accounts for the linear vari-
1603

1604
+ G(Q, [η1, 0]T ) + G(Q, [0, η2]T ) where G(Q, [η1, 0]T ) = η1∇ · (∇U + ∇UT ) and
1605
+ G(Q, [0, η2]T ). The former operator shows the dependency on the parameter
1606
+ η1, which accounts for the viscous effects. The latter operator depends on the

1876
+ following parameters:
1877
+ • Radious of the inner jet Rinner = 0.5
1878
+ • Diameter of the outer jet D = 0.4
1879
+ • Distance between jets L = 0.1
1880
+ • Ratio between velocities δu = 1
1881
+ The linear stability analysis has been carried out imposing m = 0, as done
1882
+ by [5], so the leading global mode will be axisymmetric. The critical Reynolds
1883
+ number Rec and the frequency ω of the leading global mode are compared in
1884
+ Tab. 4. As seen, few differences can be found on the critical Reynolds number
1885
+ and the frequency. The relative error in the Rec calculation is 1.06% and the
1886
+ one of the frequency is 0.17%.
1887
+ The global mode is now calculated using StabFem and compared with the
1888
+ one calculated by [5]. This mode can be found in figures 9, 10 and 11 on the
1889
+ cited paper. As it can be seen, there are not substantial differences between the
1890
+ direct modes, being both of them a vortex street with their biggest amplitude

+ associating predictions with a set of training prototypes,
17
+ which we refer to as trivial (i.e., easy-to-learn) prototypes
18
+ because they are trained to lie far from the classification
19
+ boundary in the feature space.
20
+ Note that it is possible
21
+ to make an analogy between ProtoPNet and support vec-
22
+ tor machine (SVM) given that the classification from both
23
+ methods relies on computing similarity with a set of train-
24
+ ing points (i.e., trivial prototypes in ProtoPNet, and support
25
+ vectors in SVM). However, while trivial prototypes are lo-
26
+ cated far from the classification boundary, support vectors
27
+ are located close to this boundary, and we argue that this
28
+ discrepancy with the well-established SVM theory can re-
29
+ sult in ProtoPNet models with suboptimal classification ac-
30
+ curacy. In this paper, we aim to improve the classification
31
+ accuracy of ProtoPNet with a new method to learn support
32
+ prototypes that lie near the classification boundary in the
33
+ feature space, as suggested by the SVM theory. In addition,
34
+ we target the improvement of classification interpretabil-
35
+ ity with a new model, named ST-ProtoPNet, which exploits
36
+ our support prototypes and the trivial prototypes to pro-
37
+ vide complementary interpretability information. Experi-
38
+ mental results on CUB-200-2011, Stanford Cars, and Stan-
39
+ ford Dogs datasets demonstrate that the proposed method
40
+ achieves state-of-the-art classification accuracy and pro-
41
+ duces more visually meaningful and diverse prototypes.

76
+ eters. Such lack of interpretability hinders their successful
77
+ application in fields that require understandable and trans-
78
+ parent decisions [35], such as disease diagnosis [42], finan-
79
+ cial risk assessment [30], and autonomous driving [21].
80
+ Recently, increasing attention has been dedicated to the
81
+ development of interpretable deep-learning models [1, 3, 4,
82
+ 23].
83
+ A particularly interesting strategy is the prototype-
84
+ based interpretable models, e.g., prototypical part network
85
+ (ProtoPNet) [4, 10]. These methods are inherently inter-
86
+ pretable since they can explain the model’s decisions by
87
+ showing image classification activation maps associated
88
+ with a set of class-specific image prototypes. These proto-
89
+ types are automatically learned from training samples, with
90
+ classification score being computed by comparing testing
91
+ image parts to the learned training prototypes.
92
+ ProtoPNet [4] is trained to learn a classifier from a set of
93
+ class-specific prototypes by minimising the cross-entropy
94
+ classification loss and two additional regularisation losses,
95
+ namely: 1) a clustering loss that pulls together training im-

113
+ cages to prototypes of their own class; and 2) a separation
114
+ loss that pushes apart training images from all prototypes
115
+ of other classes. More specifically, the clustering loss min-
116
+ imises the distance of each image patch to at least one pro-
117
+ totype of its own class, while the separation loss maximises
118
+ the distance between all image patches and all other class
119
+ prototypes. The combination of these two losses pushes the
120
+ prototypes as far as possible from the classification bound-
121
+ ary, but still within the class distribution, so we call them
122
+ trivial (i.e., easy-to-learn) prototypes, as shown in Fig. 1(a).
123
+ We also display these trivial prototypes in Fig. 2(a), where
124
+ we present the ProtoPNet learning results for the two-moon
125
+ problem, depicting the training points (red and blue points)
126
+ and prototypes (green and black stars) in both the data
127
+ and feature spaces, learned with a feed-forward neural net-
128
+ work1. Notice that the trivial prototypes are located as far
129
+ as possible from the classification boundary in the feature
130
+ space. Similar to ProtoPNet, the support vector machine
131
+ (SVM) [6] classifier is trained by minimising a loss func-
132
+ tion that learns a set of support vectors. Different from the
133
+ ProtoPNet’s prototypes, these support vectors are located
134
+ as close as possible to the classification boundary, as shown
135
+ in Fig. 2(c). Given that the prototypes in ProtoPNet and
136
+ support vectors in SVM play similar roles in classification
137
+ problems, we argue that the ProtoPNet’s loss function may
138
+ lead to suboptimal classification results because of the triv-
139
+ ial prototypes being learned.
140
+ In this paper, we propose an alternative learning strat-
141
+ egy of ProtoPNet from the SVM perspective, to force the
142
+ learned prototypes to resemble support vectors of SVM and
143
+ be located as close as possible to the classification bound-
144
+ ary with the goal of increasing classification accuracy. The
145
+ strategy consists of a new closeness loss that minimises the
146
+ distance between prototypes of different classes. As shown
147
+ in Fig. 1(b), our new loss enforces the prototypes to move
148
+ closer to the classification boundary, as also demonstrated
149
+ by Fig. 2(b) that reveals the support prototypes produced by
150
+ the introduction of our new closeness loss are indeed more
151
+ similar to the support vectors. Furthermore, in order to im-
152
+ prove interpretability, we propose a new ProtoPNet classi-
153
+ fier that integrates the support and trivial prototypes (named
154
+ ST-ProtoPNet), where the goal is to produce two distinc-
155
+ tive and complementary sets of prototypes to obtain more
156
+ meaningful classification explanations. Due to the different
157
+ natures of the two sets of prototypes, they can also enable
158
+ further improvements in terms of classification accuracy.
159
+ The major contributions of this work are:
160
+ 1. We provide the first study that makes an analogy be-
161
+ tween the prototype learning from ProtoPNet methods
162
+ and support vector learning from SVM, where we in-
163
+ 1The network has an input layer of 2 nodes, a hidden layer of 256 nodes
164
+ (activated by tanh), and an output layer of 2 nodes (activated by sigmoid).

173
+ vestigate if by following SVM’s support vector learn-
174
+ ing strategy and pulling the prototypes to be as close
175
+ as possible to the classification boundary, it is possible
176
+ to improve ProtoPNet’s classification accuracy.
177
+ 2. We present a new ST-ProtoPNet method to exploit both
178
+ support and trivial prototypes for the interpretable im-
179
+ age classification, where the two sets of prototypes can
180
+ provide complementary information to improve both
181
+ interpretability and classification accuracy.
182
+ 3. We conduct extensive experiments on three benchmark
183
+ datasets which show that our ST-ProtoPNet method
184
+ outperforms current state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods
185
+ in terms of classification accuracy.
186
+ In our experiments, we also demonstrate that the combi-
187
+ nation of the two types of prototypes contributes to richer
188
+ interpretability, where trivial prototypes tend to focus on
189
+ both local parts of the visual object of interest and the back-
190
+ ground, while support prototypes mainly focus on visually
191
+ similar object parts of different classes.

+ (c) Support vectors from SVM2. Related Work
270
+ In this section, we first review relevant studies on classi-
271
+ fication interpretability where we focus on prototype-based
272
+ methods, and then we briefly review support vector machine
273
+ (SVM) classification. Finally, we provide a short survey on
274
+ ensemble classification for interpretability.
275
+ 2.1. Classification Interpretability
276
+ The interpretation of classification results produced by
277
+ deep neural networks can be achieved by a variety of
278
+ post-hoc explanation techniques, such as explanatory surro-
279
+ gates [31,39,50], counterfactual examples [13,17,41], and
280
+ saliency visualisation [38,40,49,53].
281
+ In comparison with post-hoc explanations, prototype-
282
+ based interpretability is directly present in the model’s in-
283
+ ner computations. ProtoPNet [4] is the original work that
284
+ uses class-specific prototypes for interpretable image clas-
285
+ sification tasks.
286
+ Similar to ProtoPNet, TesNet [48] con-
287
+ structs class-specific transparent basis concepts on Grass-
288
+ mann manifold for the interpretable classification.
289
+ De-
290
+ rived from ProtoPNet, Deformable ProtoPNet [10] employs
291
+ spatially-flexible and deformable prototypes to adaptively
292
+ capture meaningful object features. In ProtoPShare [37], a
293
+ data-dependent merge-pruning method is presented to share
294
+ prototypes among classes, which can reduce the number
295
+ of prototypes used for classification.
296
+ Alternatively, Pro-
297
+ toPool [36] introduces a fully differentiable prototype as-
298
+ signment strategy to reduce the number of prototypes. In
299
+ Proto2Proto [18], a knowledge distillation method is de-
300
+ signed to transfer interpretability from a teacher ProtoPNet
301
+ to a shallow student ProtoPNet. ProtoTree [32] integrates
302
+ the prototype learning into a binary neural decision tree
303
+ that can explain its predictions by tracing a decision path
304
+ throughout the tree. ViT-NeT [22] further establishes the
305
+ prototype neural tree structure on visual transformers [11].
306
+ Because of the ability to self-explain classification re-
307
+ sults, prototype-based interpretability (e.g., ProtoPNet) has
308
+ been widely utilised not only in the computer vision appli-
309
+ cations above, but also in medical imaging [2, 20, 46] and
310
+ face recognition [43]. However, an open question faced by
311
+ these methods is if the prototypes being learned are the op-
312
+ timal ones in terms of classification and interpretability.
313
+ 2.2. SVM vs Prototype-based Classification
314
+ To better understand the optimality of prototypes, we
315
+ consider the support vector machine (SVM) [6] classifier
316
+ that finds support vectors to represent classes. More specif-
317
+ ically, SVM learns the maximum-margin classifier defined
318
+ by a classification boundary that maximises the distance to
319
+ the closest training samples, which are the support vectors
320
+ for the classes. The testing of SVM classifiers consists of
321
+ computing a weighted similarity between a testing sample
322
+ and the support vectors. It is interesting to note that the
323
+ testing of prototype-based classifiers is also based on mea-
324
+ suring the similarity between a testing image and a set of
325
+ class-specific prototypes learned from the training process.
326
+ Although the testing of SVM and prototype-based classi-
327
+ fiers are similar, their training procedures are quite differ-
328
+ ent. First, the training of a prototype-based classifier learns
329
+ a fixed number of prototypes [4, 10], while the SVM clas-
330
+ sifier learns to weight a variable number of support vectors
331
+ from the training set. Second, in prototype-based classi-
332
+ fiers [4,10], the learned prototypes tend to be as far as pos-
333
+ sible from the classification boundary, which is contrary to
334
+ the SVM training objective mentioned above.
335
+ The study of deep learning methods from an SVM the-
336
+ oretical perspective is a rich area of research [5,8,33] with
337
+ huge potential given the impact that both techniques have
338
+ had in the whole society for the last decades. However,
339
+ there are many practical questions that need to be addressed,
340
+ e.g., how to scale the kernel computation for large-scale
341
+ datasets, how to shorten the training process [33], and how
342
+ to integrate the learning of the SVM classifier with deep-
343
+ learning features. In this paper, we focus on adapting the
344
+ learning of ProtoPNet’s prototypes to make them similar to
345
+ SVM’s support vectors, by forcing prototypes to be as close
346
+ as possible to the classification boundary.
347
+ 2.3. Ensemble Classification
348
+ Ensemble classification [9] is a traditional machine
349
+ learning approach that combines the results from multiple
350
+ classifiers, with the goals of improving learning generalisa-
351
+ tion and classification calibration. The use of interpretable
352
+ ensemble strategy to improve the classification accuracy has
353
+ been explored in [4,10,48], which is achieved by summing
354
+ the classification logits of multiple prototype-based clas-
355
+ sifiers (e.g., ProtoPNets trained with different CNN back-
356
+ bones). In this work, we obtain the interpretable ensemble
357
+ classification by combining the predictions of two ProtoP-
358
+ Nets with highly distinctive prototypes (i.e., support pro-
359
+ totypes and trivial ones), which is different from previous
360
+ studies [4,10,48] where the type of prototypes each individ-
361
+ ual classifier produces is very similar given that the same
362
+ objective function is employed for each classifier. More
363
+ specifically, the ensemble classification used in this paper
364
+ targets the utilisation of two complementary sets of pro-
365
+ totypes, particularly when the prototypes are learned from
366
+ quite different objective functions, such as the ones for
367
+ learning the support and trivial prototypes.

+ Figure 3. The architecture of our proposed ST-ProtoPNet method
417
+ for the interpretable image classification.
418
+ ProtoPNet [4, 10] is trained to learn a set of prototypes
419
+ P = {pm}M
420
+ m=1, where pm ∈ Rρ1×ρ2×D, with each of
421
+ the C classes containing M/C prototypes. Without loss
422
+ of generality, we assume ρ1 = ρ2 = 1, but the extension
423
+ to general values is trivial. A typical ProtoPNet comprises
424
+ four components: a CNN backbone, add-on layers, a pro-
425
+ totype layer, and a fully connected (FC) layer. An input
426
+ image x is fed to the CNN backbone fθ : X → F (pa-
427
+ rameterised by θ ∈ Θ, where F ⊂ R ¯
428
+ H× ¯
429
+ W × ¯
430
+ D) and then
431
+ passed on to the add-on layers, denoted by fω : F →
432
+ V (parameterised by ω ∈ Ω), to produce a feature map
433
+ V ∈ V ⊂ R ¯
434
+ H× ¯
435
+ W ×D.
436
+ The prototype layer computes
437
+ the similarity between the feature map V and the M D-
438
+ dimensional prototypes {pm}M
439
+ m=1 to generate M similarity
440
+ maps S(i,j)
441

442
+ = sim(V(i, j, :), pm), where i ∈ {1, ..., ¯H},
443
+ j ∈ {1, ..., ¯W}, and sim(·, ·) represents a similarity mea-
444
+ sure, e.g., cosine similarity [10] and projection metric [48].
445
+ The prototype layer outputs M similarity scores from max-
446

+ fed to the FC layer fφ : S → ∆, parameterised by φ ∈ Φ,
456
+ to produce the classification prediction ˆy ∈ ∆ ⊂ [0, 1]C,
457
+ where ∆ denotes the probability space for C classes.
458
+ 4. ST-ProtoPNet
459
+ An overview of our proposed ST-ProtoPNet method
460
+ is illustrated in Fig. 3, which comprises a shared CNN
461
+ backbone fθ(·), two interpretable ProtoPNet classification
462
+ branches, namely: 1) the support ProtoPNet represented by
463
+ add-on layers fω(s)(·), prototype layer with support proto-
464
+ types P(s), and FC layer fφ(s)(·) which outputs the classi-
465
+ fication probability distribution ˆy(s) ∈ ∆; and 2) the trivial
466
+ ProtoPNet branch with its add-on layers fω(t)(·), trivial pro-
467
+ totypes P(t), and FC layer fφ(t)(·) that generates probabil-
468
+ ity predictions ˆy(t) ∈ ∆. The final classification is obtained
469
+ by combining the classification logits from both the support
470
+ and trivial ProtoPNets. In our implementation, we construct
471
+ the support and trivial ProtoPNet mainly based on the orig-
472
+ inal ProtoPNet [4] and TesNet [48], as explained below.
473
+ 4.1. Support ProtoPNet
474
+ The support ProtoPNet is designed to produce support
475
+ (i.e., hard-to-learn) prototypes for classification that are as
476
+ close as possible to the classification boundary, as shown in
477
+ Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. The loss function to optimise the support
478

515

516
+ is one of the similarity functions defined in Section 3, and
517
+ P(s)
518
+ y
519
+ denotes the set of prototypes of class y. The clustering
520
+ loss in Eq. (3) and separation loss in Eq. (4) aim to learn
521
+ a meaningful feature space in which the image features of
522
+ a certain class are clustered around the prototypes of the
523
+ class, and also well separated from those of other classes.
524
+ As mentioned in Section 1, the effect of the clustering
525
+ and separation losses above tend to push the prototypes
526
+ of different classes as far as possible from the classifica-
527
+ tion boundary, resulting in trivial prototypes, as displayed
528

563
+ CGIGLUIGg CJ2IGL2During training, the closeness loss ℓcls maximises the
564
+ pair-wise prototype similarity, in the form of dot product
565
+ p⊤
566
+ mpn between different classes in Eq. (5), with the goal of
567
+ pulling the prototypes close to the classification boundary.
568
+ As the prototypes move gradually towards the classification
569
+ boundary, they are able to capture harder and harder visual
570
+ features from training samples. On the other hand, since
571
+ the prototypes are located near the classification boundary,
572
+ this can put pressure on the support ProtoPNet’s learning
573
+ and enforce it to learn highly discriminative feature repre-
574
+ sentations to achieve accurate classification, which is bene-
575
+ ficial to extract more meaningful semantic information from
576
+ training samples.
577
+ Ideally, each prototype of a class should focus on unique
578
+ object parts of the training images (e.g., head, tail, and claw
579
+ of birds), so that the prototypes can represent rich and di-
580
+ verse visual patterns. However, there is no particular con-
581
+ straints to guarantee such prototype diversity and the issue
582
+ of prototype duplication [10] often occurs in the ProtoPNet
583
+ family of models. To encourage the intra-class prototype di-
584
+ versity, we employ an orthonormality loss [48] so that pro-
585
+ totypes within a class can represent dissimilar visual pat-
586
+ terns of training samples, which is defined as:
587
+ ℓort(P(s)) =
588
+ C

591
+ ∥Pc

594

595
+ where ∥·∥2
596
+ F represents Frobenius norm, Pc ∈ D ×R(M/C)
597
+ stands for a matrix composed of the prototypes of class
598
+ c (prototypes in each column of Pc are normalised), and
599
+ IM/C is an identity matrix of size M/C × M/C.
600
+ 4.2. Trivial ProtoPNet
601
+ As described in Section 4.1, the support ProtoPNet is
602
+ developed to learn support (i.e., hard-to-learn) prototypes
603
+ by forcing them to be close to the classification boundary.
604
+ Considering that training samples contain not only hard vi-
605
+ sual features but also important trivial ones that the support
606
+ prototypes cannot fully capture, we propose to also learn
607
+ trivial prototypes to provide complementary classification
608
+ information, and exploit both the support and trivial proto-
609
+ types for improved interpretable classification.
610
+ The loss objective to train the trivial ProtoPNet branch is
611
+ defined as follows:
612
+ θ∗,ω(t)∗, P(t)∗, φ(t)∗ =
613
+ arg
614
+ min
615
+ θ,ω(t),P(t),φ(t)
616
+
617
+ (x,y)∈D
618
+ ℓtrv(x, y, θ, ω(t), P(t), φ(t)).
619
+ (7)
620
+ The loss for each training image (x, y) ∈ D in Eq. (7) above
621
+ is represented by:
622
+ ℓtrv(x, y, θ, ω(t), P(t), φ(t)) = ℓce(x, y, θ, ω(t), P(t), φ(t))
623
+ − λ1ℓct(x, y, θ, ω(t), P(t))
624
+ + λ2ℓsp(x, y, θ, ω(t), P(t))
625
+ + λ3ℓdsc(P(t))
626
+ + λ4ℓort(P(t)),
627
+ (8)
628
+ where λ1, λ2, λ3, and λ4 are hyper-parameters, ℓce(·) is the
629
+ cross-entropy loss, the clustering loss ℓct, separation loss
630
+ ℓsp, and orthonormality loss ℓort are the same as in the sup-
631
+ port ProtoPNet defined in Eq. (3), (4) and (6), respectively.
632
+ The trivial ProtoPNet targets the learning of easy proto-
633
+ types that are far from the classification boundary and have
634
+ a good discrimination ability. To help achieve this, we in-
635
+ troduce a new discrimination loss ℓdsc to facilitate the inter-
636
+ class separability between prototypes of different classes.
637
+ This is formulated by minimising the pair-wise prototype
638
+ similarities of different classes, as follows:
639
+ ℓdsc(P(t)) =
640
+ C−1
641
+
642
+ c1=1

651
+ 4.3. Training and Testing
652
+ Training. Following the training strategies in the Pro-
653
+ toPNet family [4, 10], the training procedure of our ST-
654
+ ProtoPNet consists of 3 stages: 1) stochastic gradient de-
655
+ scent (SGD) optimisation of the CNN backbone, add-on
656
+ layers, and prototype layer, using a fixed FC layer initialised
657
+ with +1.0 and -0.5 for correct and incorrect connection
658
+ weights, respectively; 2) prototype projection by updating
659
+ each prototype with its nearest latent training image patch;
660
+ and 3) optimisation of the FC layer, with an additional L1
661
+ regularisation on the incorrect connection weights (initially
662
+ fixed at -0.5). In each stage, we alternate the optimisation
663
+ of each branch of the ST-ProtoPNet between mini-batches.
664
+ Testing.
665
+ To exploit the complementary results from
666
+ both branches of the ST-ProtoPNet, the final classification
667
+ is obtained from the summed logits predicted by the two
668
+ branches. It is worth noticing that this ensemble strategy
669
+ introduces no loss of interpretablity but improved accuracy.
670
+ 5. Experiments
671
+ We perform experiments on three fine-grained classifi-
672
+ cation benchmark datasets: CUB-200-2011 [45], Stanford
673
+ Cars [25], and Stanford Dogs [19]. To achieve fair com-
674
+ parison, we follow previous studies [4, 48] by applying of-
675
+ fline data augmentations (e.g., random rotation, skew, shear,
676
+ and left-right flip) on the cropped CUB and cropped Cars
677
+ datasets (using bounding boxes provided). We also validate
678
+ 5
679
+
680
+ our method on the full CUB and full Dogs datasets, and
681
+ employ the same online data augmentation methods (e.g.,
682
+ random affine transformation and left-right flip) as used
683
+ in Deformable ProtoPNet [10]. All images are resized to
684
+ 224 × 224 pixels as network input.
685
+ 5.1. Experimental Settings
686
+ The proposed ST-ProtoPNet method is evaluated on the
687
+ following CNN architectures: VGG-16, VGG-19, ResNet-
688
+ 34, ResNet-50, ResNet-152, DenseNet-121, and DenseNet-
689
+ 161. All CNN backbones are pre-trained on ImageNet [7],
690
+ except for ResNet-50, which is pre-trained on iNatural-
691
+ ist [44] for the experiment on full CUB [10]. The add-on
692
+ layers include two 1 × 1 convolutional layers. For simplic-
693
+ ity, we utilise the same prototype dimension D = 64 for all
694
+ CNN backbones on the three datasets. For cropped CUB
695
+ and Cars datasets, following [48], we use 10 prototypes (5
696
+ support and 5 trivial) per class and the projection metric
697
+ in the similarity function sim(·, ·). In full CUB and Dogs
698
+ datasets, to ensure comparison fairness with Deformable
699
+ ProtoPNet [10] that uses 10 2 × 2 (full CUB) and 10 3 × 3
700
+ (full Dogs) deformable prototypes per class, we utilise the
701
+ same total number of prototypes, i.e., 40 1 × 1 (20 support
702
+ and 20 trivial) for full CUB and 90 1×1 (45 support and 45
703
+ trivial) for full Dogs. Also, we employ the cosine similar-
704
+ ity in sim(·, ·) and obtain 14 × 14 ( ¯H = ¯W = 14) feature
705
+ maps by upsampling the original 7 × 7 feature maps via a
706
+ bi-linear interpolation step, as in [10]. In our implemen-
707
+ tation, we empirically set λ1 = 0.8, λ2 = 0.48 and 0.08
708
+ for the support and trivial ProtoPNet branches respectively,
709
+ λ3 = 1.0, and λ4 = 0.001. More details about the experi-
710
+ mental setup can be found in the supplementary material.
711
+ 5.2. Performance Comparison
712
+ Table 1 presents the classification accuracy (averaged
713
+ across 5 runs) of our proposed ST-ProtoPNet on cropped
714
+ CUB and cropped Cars datasets, where the Baseline is rep-
715
+ resented by non-interpretable black-box CNN models. As
716
+ can be seen, our ST-ProtoPNet outperforms other compet-
717
+ ing methods across all backbone architectures for the task
718
+ of bird species classification. Also, our method achieves the
719
+ best results for the car model identification task when using
720
+ VGG and DenseNet architectures as the CNN backbone.
721
+ In particular, our VGG19-based ST-ProtoPNet reaches an
722
+ average accuracy of 83.2% and 91.7% on CUB and Cars,
723
+ respectively, surpassing other methods with the most im-
724
+ provements across all backbones. Moreover, the support
725
+ ProtoPNet generally performs better than methods utilising
726
+ only trivial prototypes (e.g., ProtoPNet, TesNet, and Triv-
727
+ ial ProtoPNet), showing the importance of learning support
728
+ prototypes for the interpretable image classification. It is
729
+ worth noting that our proposed ST-ProtoPNet produces su-
730
+ perior performance over the support ProtoPNet method, in-
731
+ dicating that both support and trivial prototypes are useful
732
+ and can provide complementary information for achieving
733
+ accurate and interpretable classification.
734
+ Table 2 shows the classification results of different meth-
735
+ ods on full CUB and full Dogs datasets. In both datasets,
736
+ the classification accuracy of the original ProtoPNet method
737
+ is generally worse than the non-interpretable counterpart
738
+ (Baseline) under many CNN backbones. On the other hand,
739
+ the accuracy by the trivial ProtoPNet and support ProtoP-
740
+ Net are substantially better than those by Baseline, ProtoP-
741
+ Net, and Deformable ProtoPNet. However, the proposed
742
+ ST-ProtoPNet achieves more significant performance gains
743
+ that result in the best classification accuracy across most
744
+ CNN backbones, particularly when using a large number of
745
+ prototypes (i.e., 40 1 × 1 prototypes per class for CUB and
746
+ 90 1×1 prototypes per class for Dogs), which demonstrates
747
+ the effectiveness of utilising both the trivial and support
748
+ prototypes for the interpretable image classification. Ad-
749
+ ditionally, when using a smaller number of prototypes, i.e,
750
+ 10 1×1 prototypes per class, our ST-ProtoPNet method still
751
+ exhibits competitive classification accuracy across multiple
752
+ CNN backbones.
753
+ We further compare our ST-ProtoPNet with other deep-
754
+ learning methods that can provide different levels of inter-
755
+ pretability on CUB dataset, with results shown in Table 3,
756
+ where * and ** denote ensembled models trained with dif-
757
+ ferent CNN backbones or hyper-parameters. As can be ob-
758
+ served, an ensemble of three ST-ProtoPNets can achieve
759
+ high classification accuracy (87.9% on cropped images,
760
+ 88.2% on full images), outperforming competing methods
761
+ that are also based on an ensemble of three models (e.g.,
762
+ ProtoTree, TesNet, and ProtoPool). Moreover, the ensemble
763
+ of five ST-ProtoPNets exceeds all other competing methods
764
+ and obtains the best classification accuracy of 88.1% and
765
+ 88.4% on cropped and full CUB images, respectively. Ex-
766
+ perimental results on Stanford Cars and Stanford Dogs are
767
+ presented in the supplementary material.
768
+ 5.3. Visualisation Analysis
769
+ To better highlight the differences between the support
770
+ and trivial prototypes, we select 8 categories of birds with
771
+ visually similar features from cropped CUB-200-2011 to
772
+ form a subset, and show the learned prototypes of our
773
+ VGG19-based ST-ProtoPNet in Fig. 4, where each proto-
774
+ type is visualised by projecting onto its nearest training im-
775
+ age patch in the latent feature space [4]. We can see in
776
+ Fig. 4(a) that the support prototypes can capture subtle and
777
+ fine visual features of different classes. Importantly, notice
778
+ that the support prototypes only focus on relevant bird parts,
779
+ such as the head and belly. This is reasonable since our
780
+ learning algorithm is designed to produce prototypes that
781
+ are as close as possible to the classification boundary, where
782
+ the image prototypical parts should be discriminative but at

+ the second column demonstrates the prototype’s corresponding activation map.
997
+ the same time visually similar among different classes. By
998
+ contrast, it is observed in Fig. 4(b) that the trivial prototypes
999
+ tend to focus not only on the relevant bird parts but also the
1000
+ background regions. For example, some trivial prototypes
1001
+ of the Laysan Albatross and Sooty Albatross classes cap-
1002
+ ture the sea surface as they often appear with the sea back-
1003
+ ground. We argue that this is because the trivial ProtoPNet
1004
+ may treat the background as the most easy-to-learn pattern,
1005
+ focusing less on the target’s visual parts of the class.
1006
+ Fig. 5 displays an example of the interpretable reasoning
1007
+ process of our ST-ProtoPNet method in classifying a testing
1008
+ bird image. As can be seen, each ProtoPNet branch calcu-
1009
+ lates its own classification logits (weighted sum of similar-
1010
+ ity scores), which is then combined to generate the final pre-
1011
+ dictions. To be specific, when classifying a Brewer Black-
1012
+ bird, the support prototypes are quite active on the belly or
1013
+ lower surface of the bird. Meanwhile, the trivial prototypes
1014
+ mostly have high activations on the bird’s head and tail. In
1015
+ this case, the support ProtoPNet branch obtains a relatively
1016
+ higher similarity score (22.913), compared with the trivial
1017
+ branch (20.248). Note that our ST-ProtoPNet exploits both
1018
+ the support and trivial prototypes to capture much richer
1019
+ representations of the target object from different perspec-
1020
+ tives, which enables the production of the final decision in
1021
+ a complementary way. Notably, the ensemble classification
1022
+ improves interpretability and accuracy using richer repre-
1023
+ sentations for the target object. More examples of visual
1024
+ prototypes and interpretable reasoning on Cars and Dogs
1025
+ are provided in the supplementary material.

1145

+ of them (Trivial Ensemble and Support Ensemble). Besides,
1202
+ for our ST-ProtoPNet, we also provide results of its individ-
1203
+ ual branches (Trivial Branch and Support Branch). Table 5
1204
+ gives the experimental results on cropped CUB dataset. We
1205
+ can notice that combining the two different types of pro-
1206
+ totypes (ST-ProtoPNet) achieves superior performance over
1207
+ combining only the same type of prototypes (Trivial Ensem-
1208
+ ble and Support Ensemble), indicating that our performance
1209
+ improvements are from not only the ensemble strategy but
1210
+ also the two complementary sets of prototypes. Also, ST-
1211
+ ProtoPNet indeed exhibits higher accuracy than its individ-
1212
+ ual branches, further verifying that the results from the two
1213
+ branches are complementary, and the combination of them
1214
+ are effective to improve the final classification accuracy.
1215
+ 6. Conclusion and Future Work
1216
+ In this paper, we propose the ST-ProtoPNet method to
1217
+ exploit both support (i.e., hard-to-learn) and trivial (i.e.,
1218
+ easy-to-learn) prototypes for the interpretable image clas-
1219
+ sification, where the two distinctive sets of prototypes
1220
+ can provide complementary results. In addition, our ST-
1221
+ ProtoPNet is a general approach that can be easily applied
1222
+ to existing prototype-based interpretable models. One limi-
1223
+ tation for our method is that we empirically adopt the same
1224
+ number of support and trivial prototypes and the same to-
1225
+ tal number of prototypes for each class. Considering the
1226
+ different learning difficulties and imbalanced training sam-
1227
+ ples among classes in other real-world datasets, e.g., Ima-
1228
+ geNet [7], a better way to adaptively learn a flexible num-
1229
+ ber of support and trivial prototypes is needed and deserves
1230
+ to be further investigated in our future work. Furthermore,
1231
+ given that we mimic the behaviour of the support vectors of
1232
+ SVM classifier to obtain the support prototypes by forcing
1233
+ them to be as close as possible to the classification bound-
1234
+ ary, we plan to develop new methods to learn prototypes
1235
+ with gradient-based kernel computations, e.g., neural tan-
1236
+ gent kernel [16] and path kernel [8].

+ Abstract
11
+ We study the late-time properties of pseudo-(R´enyi) entropy of locally excited states in rational
12
+ conformal field theories (RCFTs). The two non-orthogonal locally excited states used to construct
13
+ the transition matrix are generated by acting different descendant operators on the vacuum. We
14
+ prove that for the cases where two descendant operators are generated by a single Virasoro generator
15
+ respectively acting on a primary operator, the late-time excess of pseudo-entropy and pseudo-R´enyi
16
+ entropy always coincides with the logarithmic of the quantum dimension of the corresponding
17
+ primary operator. Furthermore, we consider two linear combination operators generated by the
18
+ generic summation of Virasoro generators. We find their pseudo-R´enyi entropy and pseudo-entropy
19
+ may get additional contributions, as the mixing of holomorphic and anti-holomorphic parts of
20
+ the correlation function enhances the entanglement. Finally, we assert the pseudo-R´enyi entropy
21
+ and pseudo-entropy are still the logarithmic quantum dimension of the primary operator when
22
+ the correlation function of linear combination operators can be divided into the product of its
23
+ holomorphic part and anti-holomorphic part. We offer some examples to illustrate the phenomenon.

87
+ Introduction
88
+ The discovery of AdS/CFT correspondence [1–3] has motivated much research related to quantum
89
+ information theory in the high-energy physics community in recent years. Among them, quantum
90
+ entanglement, as a carrier of quantum information, play an increasingly significant role in probing
91
+ the structure of quantum field theories (QFTs) [4–10], the emergence of geometry [11–13], black hole
92
+ information paradox [14–18].
93
+ Recently, a new entanglement measure, called pseudo-entropy, was proposed in [19] as a generaliza-
94
+ tion of entanglement entropy. Specifically, pseudo-entropy is a two-state vector version of entanglement
95
+ entropy, defined as follows. Given two non-orthogonal states |ψ⟩ and |ϕ⟩ in the Hilbert space HS of a
96
+ composed quantum system S = A ∪ B, we first constructs an operator called transition matrix acting
97
+ on HS,
98
+ T ψ|ϕ ≡ |ψ⟩⟨ϕ|
99
+ ⟨ϕ|ψ⟩ =
100
+ ρψρϕ
101
+ tr[ρψρϕ].
102
+ (1)
103
+ The pseudo-entropy of subsystem A, then, is obtained by calculating the von Neumann entropy of the
104
+ reduced transition matrix T ψ|ϕ
105
+ A
106
+ ≡ trB[T ψ|ϕ],
107
+ S(T ψ|ϕ
108
+ A
109
+ ) = −tr[T ψ|ϕ

+ log T ψ|ϕ
112

113
+ ].

116
+
117
+ In general, the reduced transition matrix is non-Hermitian and pseudo-entropy can be complex-valued.
118
+ When |ϕ⟩ = |ψ⟩, pseudo-entropy reduces to entanglement entropy. Like entanglement entropy, in
119
+ practice, especially in QFTs, one usually computes a quantity called pseudo-R´enyi entropy,

131
+ instead of pseudo-entropy to avoid the computation of the logarithm of the matrix. The limit n → 1
132
+ gives back the pseudo-entropy.
133
+ Pseudo-entropy is originally proposed from the study of the generalization of holography entangle-
134
+ ment entropy [19]. In the AdS/CFT context, the pseudo-entropy of a boundary subsystem is proposed
135
+ to be dual to the area of a minimal surface in the Euclidean time-dependent AdS space [19]. In ad-
136
+ dition, it is found that pseudo-entropy is closely related to the postselection experiments in quantum
137
+ information (i.e., in addition to the initial state, the system’s final state is also specified [20]). The
138
+ first is that the input of the pseudo-entropy—transition matrix (1) plays the role of density matrix
139
+ when one computes the weak values [21, 22] of observables in the post-selected system. Secondly,
140
+ pseudo-entropy is considered to characterize the averaged number of EPR pairs that could have been
141
+ distilled in the post-selected systems [19, 23]. There are also many research interests and prospects
142
+ driving the study of pseudo-entropy in QFTs [24–30]. See [31–36] for other related developments of
143
+ pseudo-entropy.
144
+ The present paper aims to study the properties of pseudo-entropy of locally descendant excited
145
+ states in two-dimensional (2D) conformal field theories (CFTs). Our study can be traced back to the
146
+ research on entanglement entropy in local quantum quenches in 2D CFTs [37–52].5 It is found that
147
+ the excess of R´enyi entropy of the local primary or descendant excited states in rational conformal
148
+ field theories (RCFTs) saturates to a constant equal to the logarithm of the quantum dimension [62]
149
+ of the local operator’s conformal family [39, 44, 45]. Such saturation is well explained by the picture
150
+ of quasiparticle pairs propagation [38]. The related research is extended to the pseudo-entropy in
151
+ parallel [30]. When considering the real-time evolution of the pseudo-R´enyi entropy of locally primary
152
+ excited states in RCFTs, the early-time behavior of the excess of pseudo-R´enyi entropy depends on the
153
+ respective spatial positions of two identical primary operators, which is not universal. Nevertheless,
154
+ its late-time behavior is universal, which only depends on the quantum dimension of the primary
155
+ operator, just like the entanglement entropy. The result suggests that the picture of quasiparticle

158

+ and evaluate the pseudo-R´enyi entropy using the replica method [5] and conformal mapping. In (4),
173
+ O(x) is a primary operator in Schr¨odinger picture with chiral and anti-chiral conformal dimension
174
+ ∆, L−n (¯L−n) are holomorphic (anti-holomorphic) Virasoro generators, and α{ni},{¯nj} ∈ C are su-
175
+ perposition coefficients. Since the two-point function between descendant operators of different levels
176
+ does not vanish, the transition matrices we are permitted to construct have more degrees of freedom
177
+ than the cases of the primary operator. It is interesting to see whether the late-time behavior of the
178
+ pseudo-(R´enyi) entropy of subsystems corresponding to these transition matrices has contributions
179
+ other than the quantum dimension.
180
+ The rest of this paper is organized as follows. In section 2, we briefly review the replica method for
181
+ locally excited states in 2D CFTs and provide our convention and some useful formulae for the later
182
+ calculations. In section 3, we mainly focus on the late-time behavior of the 2nd pseudo-R´enyi entropy
183
+ of locally descendant excited states. For simplicity, we study the cases that a single holomorphic
184
+ Virasoro generator generates the descendants. More general and complicated situations are discussed
185
+ in section 4, where we derive the late-time behavior of the k-th pseudo-R´enyi entropy for the generic
186
+ descendant states. We end with conclusions and prospects in section 5. Some calculation details are
187
+ presented in the appendices.

191
+ Replica method with local operators
192
+ Our focus is the pseudo-R´enyi entropy of locally excited states created by acting the operator Vα (4)
193
+ on the ground state in RCFTs, which can be formulated in the path integral formalism using the
194
+ replica method. W can consider a RCFT that lives on a plane and has a vacuum state |Ω⟩. We firstly
195
+ prepare two locally excited states using Vα to construct a real-time evolved transition matrix T 1|2(t),
196
+ |ψ1⟩ ≡ e−ϵHVα(x1)|Ω⟩,
197
+ |ψ2⟩ ≡ e−ϵHVβ(x2)|Ω⟩,
198
+ T 1|2(t) ≡ e−iHt |ψ1⟩⟨ψ2|

+ ⟨ψ2|ψ1⟩ eiHt.
200
+ (5)
201
+ Notice that an infinitesimally small parameter ϵ has been introduced to suppress the high energy
202
+ modes [63]. We can obtain the reduced transition matrix of subsystem A at time t by tracing out the
203
+ degrees of freedom of Ac (the complement of A), T 1|2
204
+ A (t) = trAc[T 1|2(t)]. It turns out that the excess
205
+ of the n-th pseudo-R´enyi entropy of A with respect to the ground state, defined as ∆S(n)(T 1|2

+ A (t)) :=

229
+ corresponding to A, and (w2k−1, ¯w2k−1)and (w2k, ¯w2k) are coordinates on the kth-sheet surface. The
230
+ term in the first line is given by a 2n-point correlation function on Σn, while a two-point function
231
+ 3
232
+
233
+ gives the one in the second line on Σ1. We can have
234
+ w2k−1 = x1 + t − iϵ,
235
+ w2k = x2 + t + iϵ,
236
+ ¯w2k−1 = x1 − t + iϵ,
237
+ ¯w2k = x2 − t − iϵ.

240
+ Convention and useful formulae
241
+ The 2n-point correlation function on Σn in Eq.(6) can be evaluated with the help of a conformal
242
+ mapping of Σn to the complex plane Σ1. The subsystem is A = [0, ∞) hereafter for convenience. We
243
+ can then map Σn to Σ1 using the simple conformal mapping
244
+ w = zn.
245
+ (8)
246
+ Let us first focus on the case of n = 2. The calculation of ∆S(2)(T 1|2
247
+ A (t)) is related to the four-point
248
+ function known pretty well for exactly solvable CFTs. In our convention, using Eq.(8), the 4 points
249
+ z1, z2, z3, z4 in the complex plane are given by
250
+ z1 = −z3 = i
251
+
252
+ −x1 − t + iϵ,
253
+ ¯z1 = −¯z3 = −i
254
+
255
+ −x1 + t − iϵ,
256
+ z2 = −z4 = i
257
+
258
+ −x2 − t − iϵ,
259
+ z2 = −z4 = −i
260
+
261
+ −x2 + t + iϵ.
262
+ (9)
263
+ The key point is that one should treat t±iϵ as a pure imaginary number in all algebraic calculations and
264
+ take t to be real only in the final expression of the pseudo-R´enyi entropy. To evaluate the four-point
265
+ correlation function, it is useful to focus on the cross ratios

369

370
+ The pseudo-R´enyi entropy for locally excited states can be regarded as a generalization of the R´enyi
371
+ entropy for locally excited states [19]. In RCFTs, it is known that the excess of the R´enyi entropy
372
+ saturates to a constant equal to the logarithm of the quantum dimension of the inserted primary
373
+ operator [39]. A similar result for pseudo-R´enyi entropy is found in [30], and the result also holds
374
+ for R´enyi entropy constructed by two descendent operators in [45]. However, [45] only considers the
375
+ late-time behavior of R´enyi entropy established by two descendent operators with the same Virasoro
376
+ generators and at the same insertion spatial coordinates. The pseudo-R´enyi entropy with two descen-
377
+ dent operators at different levels is still unknown. This section will explore the 2nd pseudo-R´enyi
378
+ entropy for some specific descendent operators.

+ L−1O(x1), Vβ(x2) = O(x2). The 2nd pseudo-R´enyi entropy, which, according to (6), is related to

+ In general, the numerator is not equal to the denominator in the last line of (49). So the k-th pseudo-
1301
+ Renyi entropy may acquire additional correction. It is zero when correlation functions containing Vα
1302
+ and Vβ can be divided into the product of the holomorphic part and antiholomorphic part. How-
1303
+ ever, the extra correction may be nonzero in general. The following two examples can illustrate the
1304
+ phenomenon.
1305
+ • Example 1 with Vα(w1, ¯w1) = (L−1 + ¯L−1)O(w1, ¯w1) Vβ(w2, ¯w2) = (L−1 + ¯L−1)O(w2, ¯w2)
1306
+ The two-point function is

+ ⟨Vα(w1, ¯w1)Vβ(w2, ¯w2)⟩Σ1 = −4∆(4∆ + 1)
1308
+ (x1 − x2)4∆+2 .
1309
+ (50)
1310
+ Formula (50) is easy to check. Here, we replace x1 + t and x2 + t into w1 and w2 in the final
1311
+ result. The four-point function is
1312
+ ⟨Vα(w1, ¯w1)Vβ(w2, ¯w2)Vα(w3, ¯w3)Vβ(w4, ¯w4)⟩Σ2 ∼ 8∆2(16∆ + 1 + 8∆)
1313
+ (x1 − x2)8∆+4
1314
+ .
1315
+ (51)
1316
+ We explicitly show how to compute the four-point function on Σ2 without showing the derivation
1317
+ of (51) in detail. Again we keep the final result replaced by x1 and x2.
1318
+ From (50) and (51), we can have
1319
+ ∆S(2) ∼ log dO + log 2.
1320
+ (52)
1321
+ 13
1322
+
1323
+ In this case, the correlation function of Vα and Vβ can not be divided into the product of the
1324
+ holomorphic part and antiholomorphic part, and ∆S(2) contains an extra correction log 2 besides
1325
+ log dO.

1401
+ Conclusion and prospect
1402
+ In this paper, we investigate the pseudo-R´enyi entropy of local descendent operators in RCFTs, ex-
1403
+ tending the previous studies in [30] [39] [45]. In [30] [45], it has been found that the late-time excess
1404
+ of the pseudo-R´enyi entropy of two primary states and the R´enyi entropy of a descendent state equal
1405
+ to the logarithmic quantum dimension of the primary operator in RCFTs. It is a natural question to
1406
+ consider the pseudo-R´enyi entropy of the descendent states.
1407
+ Firstly, we show that in some special cases: Vα = L−1O, Vβ = O and Vα = L−nO, Vβ = O
1408
+ with O being primary, the late-time excess of the 2nd pseudo-R´enyi entropy (6) is still logarithmic
1409
+ of the quantum dimension of the primary operator. Using the conformal block and operator product
1410
+ expansion, we compute the 2nd pseudo-R´enyi entropy constructed by two descendent operators with
1411
+ different Virasoro generators.
1412
+ We show that their 2nd pseudo-R´enyi entropy is the same as their
1413
+ 14
1414
+
1415
+ primaries for such states. Although the calculation looks quite complicated, the leading divergent
1416
+ terms in the late time limit are simple, behaving as the one for primary operators.
1417
+ Further, we compute k-th pseudo-R´enyi entropy with two descendent operators L−nO and L−mO.
1418
+ We extract the most divergent term of the 2k-point function on Σk with an overall factor F (35), and
1419
+ then associate the 2k-point function of descendent operators with the 2k-point function of primary
1420
+ operators (38) with some derivative operators of the form
1421
+ D2i+1,2i+4 = D(∂2i+1, ∂2i+4; m, n, c, ∆).
1422
+ (55)
1423
+ We find the 2k-point function breaks up into k two-point functions for the holomorphic part(and k for
1424
+ the anti-holomorphic part). The two-point function only depends on the conformal weight and some
1425
+ constant (42). As a result, in this case, the pseudo-entropy of the descendent operators is the same as
1426
+ primaries.
1427
+ Finally, we discuss the most generic descendent operators, which are two linear combination oper-
1428
+ ators constructed by operators in O’s conformal family
1429

+ Unsurprisingly, we find that the pseudo-R´enyi entropy of these operators is generally different from
1440
+ that of the primary operator O. The entropies are the same as the ones of the primary when the
1441
+ correlation function of Vα and Vβ can be divided into the product of the holomorphic part and the
1442
+ anti-holomorphic part. A typical example is
1443

+ Noticing the current results in RCFTs, one can directly calculate the pseudo-entropy of generic local
1485
+ operators in Liouville CFT, holographic CFTs, non-diagonal CFTs, etc. Since the spectra in such
1486
+ theories have different structures, the associated pseudo-entropy will be highly different from those
1487
+ in RCFTs.
1488
+ In particular, since holomorphic and antiholomorphic conformal blocks have different
1489
+ structures in non-diagonal CFTs, the late-time behavior of the entanglement entropy and pseudo-
1490
+ entropy associated with locally excited states will not be the same as the ones demonstrated in the
1491
+ current paper. We would like to leave them to future work.

18
+ Transition radiation is a fundamental process of light emission and occurs whenever a charged
19
+ particle moves across an inhomogeneous region. One feature of transition radiation is that it
20
+ can create light emission at arbitrary frequency under any particle velocity. Therefore,
21
+ transition radiation is of significant importance to both fundamental science and practical
22
+ applications. In this paper, we provide a brief historical review of transition radiation and its
23
+ recent development. Moreover, we pay special attention to four typical applications of
24
+ transition radiation, namely the detection of high-energy particles, coherent radiation sources,
25
+ beam diagnosis, and excitation of surface waves. Finally, we give an outlook for the research
26
+ tendency
27
+ of
28
+ transition
29
+ radiation,
30
+ especially
31
+ its
32
+ flexible
33
+ manipulation
34
+ by
35
+ exploiting
36
+ artificially-engineered materials and nanostructures, such as gain materials, metamaterials,
37
+ spatial-temporal materials, meta-boundaries, and layered structures with a periodic or
38
+ non-periodic stacking.

43
+ Free-electron radiation originates from the particle-matter interaction and is a fundamental
44
+ process of light emission [1-8]. Since free-electron radiation is able to create light emission at
45

56
+ Due to the exotic particle-matter interactions, the free-electron radiation could occur under
57
+ different scenarios. Correspondingly, there are various types of free-electron radiation, including
58
+ Cherenkov
59
+ radiation
60
+ [16-19],
61
+ transition
62
+ radiation
63
+ [20-23],
64
+ Smith-Purcell
65
+ radiation
66
+ [24-28],
67
+ bremsstrahlung radiation [29-34], and synchrotron radiation [35-40], as shown in Fig. 1. Cherenkov
68
+ radiation is the most famous type of free-electron radiation, and it occurs in a homogeneous matter
69
+ only when a charged particle moves with a velocity larger than the Cherenkov threshold, namely the
70
+ phase velocity of light in that matter [41-45]. Different from Cherenkov radiation, the occurrence of
71
+ transition radiation has no specific requirement on the particle velocity, and it could happen
72
+ whenever a charged particle moves across an inhomogeneous region [46-50], such as an optical
73
+ interface. Smith-Purcell radiation emerges when a charged particle moves parallel and close to the
74
+ surface of an optical diffraction grating [24-28]. Bremsstrahlung radiation, also known as the braking
75
+ radiation, would appear if the charge particle decelerates or accelerates [29-34]. Synchrotron
76
+ radiation originates from the circular motion of charged particles [35-40]. Due to the complexity of
77
+ particle-matter interactions, the free-electron radiation, such as transition radiation, is a subject of
78
+ extensive researches over the last several decades and is still a hot topic [51-55].

81
+ Below, we focus on the discussion of transition radiation. A brief review of the development of
82
+ transition radiation is provided, including its interesting history and recent advances. To highlight the
83
+ importance of transition radiation in science and technology, several typical applications of transition
84
+ radiation are discussed in depth, ranging from high-energy particle detectors [56-65], coherent
85
+ radiation source [66-71], beam diagnostics [72-76], to excitation of surface plasmon [77-84]. Due to
86
+ the recent rapid development in material science and nanotechnology, an outlook on how to flexibly
87
+ control the behavior of transition radiation is given by exploiting exotic artificially-engineered
88
+ materials
89
+ and
90
+ nanostructures
91
+ [85-90],
92
+ including
93
+ gain
94
+ materials,
95
+ spatial-temporal
96
+ materials,
97
+ meta-boundaries, and layered structures with a random stacking.
98
+ Brief development history of transition radiation
99
+ We begin with a brief review of the development history of transition radiation, as summarized
100
+ in Fig. 2. The simplest case of transition radiation was first proposed by Ginzburg and Frank in 1946
101
+ [20] by exploring the bombardment of an electron at the interface between vacuum and a metal. The
102
+ theory of transition radiation was experimentally confirmed in the visible range by Goldsmith and
103
+ Jelley in 1959 [91], after the analysis of the collected radiation fields, including their polarization,
104
+ excitation function and absolute yield. In their setup, a Van de Graaff generator was adopted to
105
+ produce a 5 mega-electron-volt (MeV) beam bunch, which was then injected towards the
106
+ vacuum-metal interface. Soon after the discovery of transition radiation, the quantum effect of
107
+ transition radiation was also investigated by Garibian in 1960 [92].
108
+ The development of transition radiation is closely related to the interesting history of Ferrell
109
+ radiation [93], which is featured with a peak near the plasma frequency in the radiation spectrum. In
110
+ 1958, Ferrell proposed an approximate theory for the radiation of plasma oscillation and claimed that
111
+
112
+ 5
113
+ under suitable circumstances, the plasma oscillations would give off electromagnetic radiation [93].
114
+ Since Ferrell radiation could facilitate the plasma-frequency measurement of metals [93], Ferrell
115
+ radiation was soon experimentally observed in 1960 [94,95]. In 1961, Silin and Fetisov pointed out
116
+ that Ferrell radiation is merely the transition radiation [96]. In 1962, Stern argued that Ferrell’s
117
+ method and Ginzburg and Frank’s theory of transition radiation are two distinct ways to consider the
118
+ same phenomenon [97]. Stern highlighted that the physical mechanism of Ferrell radiation was
119
+ misinterpreted by Silin and Fetisov, and it is “a surface effect” [97], namely “the contribution of
120
+ radiative surface plasma oscillation (SPO)” [98], instead of the bulk longitudinal plasma oscillation
121
+ in their study. In 1969, Economou emphasized that “there are no radiative SPO in the present
122
+ geometry” [98]. Actually, he preferred the explanation of transition radiation, after the mathematical
123
+ analysis of the denominator in the expression of transition radiation near the peak of Ferrell radiation
124
+ [98]. Due to the recent advances in plasmonics [99-105], it is now acknowledged that the radiative
125
+ SPO is essentially a leaky mode, denoted as the Ferrell mode [84,97,98,106]. In 2022, the Ferrell
126
+ radiation was re-investigated in the time domain and was found able to occur far beyond the
127
+ formation time, since it is supported by a long tail of bulk plasmons following the electron’s
128
+ trajectory deep into the plasmonic medium [107]. This way, the plasmonic tail is capable to mix
129
+ surface and bulk effects and provides a sustained channel for electron-interface interaction. This
130
+ time-domain finding may settle the historical debate in Ferrell radiation, regarding whether it is a
131
+ surface or bulk effect, from transition radiation or plasmonic oscillation. Moreover, with the aid of
132
+ Ferrell modes in uniaxial epsilon-near-zero materials, such as a thin hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)
133
+ slab, an exotic phenomenon of low-velocity-favored transition radiation was recently proposed [108].
134
+ When the low-velocity-favored transition radiation occurs, the light emission from ultralow-energy
135
+
136
+ 6
137
+ particles with extremely-low velocities could exhibit comparable intensity as that from high-energy
138
+ particles [108].
139
+ Due to the recent advances in nanofabrication, artificially-engineered materials or nanostructures,
140
+ such as metamaterials [109-119], 2D materials [120-128], and photonic crystals [129-135], begin to
141
+ play an important role in the flexible manipulation of transition radiation.
142
+ In 2009, Ref. [136] analyzed the case that a charged particle crosses an interface between a
143
+ positive-index medium and a negative-index medium. Under this scenario, the transition radiation
144
+ from the interface and the reversed Cherenkov radiation from the negative-index material would
145
+ interfere and make the light emission complex. In 2012, Ref. [137] further studied the transition
146
+ radiation
147
+ from
148
+ an
149
+ average
150
+ zero-index
151
+ metamaterial,
152
+ comprised
153
+ of
154
+ periodically
155
+ alternating
156
+ negative-index and positive-index layers. A strong radiation enhancement up to three orders of
157
+ magnitude was predicted, due to the gigantic increase in the density of states
158
+ at the
159
+ positive-index/negative-index interface.
160
+ In 2012, Ref. [138] used graphene to tailor the transition radiation. Although the graphene is
161
+ atomically thin, the free electron can efficiently excite graphene plasmons with probabilities in the
162
+ order of one per electron [139]. In addition to the monolayer graphene [78,84,140-142], Ref. [142]
163
+ also investigated the photonic and plasmonic transition radiation from multilayer graphene.
164
+ Due to the resonance effect, the analysis of transition radiation from periodic structures [143-147]
165
+ is rather complicated. The related research could be dated back to the transition radiation in a
166
+ periodically stratified plasma [148]. In 2003, Ref. [149] revealed that the behavior of Cherenkov
167
+ radiation inside a two-dimensional photonic crystal is intrinsically coupled with the transition
168
+ radiation and would appear without the Cherenkov threshold. In 2018, Ref. [150] further revealed the
169
+
170
+ 7
171
+ connection between Cherenkov radiation and transition radiation. Actually, Ref. [150] proposed a
172
+ new mechanism – by exploiting the resonance transition radiation from one-dimensional photonic
173
+ crystals – to create the effective Cherenkov radiation. This mechanism is capable to control the
174
+ effective Cherenkov angles with high sensitivity, under any desired range of particle momentum, and
175
+ is thus promising for the design of novel particle detectors.
176
+ High-energy particle detectors based on transition radiation
177
+ Particle detectors provide a powerful tool to detect, track and identify high-energy particles
178
+ [151-155]. In high-energy physics, the charged particle could have a Lorentz factor
179
+ ��� = 1/
180
+ 1 − ���2/���2 up to 104, where ��� is the particle velocity and ��� is the speed of light in free space.
181
+ For such high-energy particles, the sensitivity of common particle detectors (e.g. Cherenkov
182
+ detectors [156-159]) is generally very low, and thus their detection is full of challenges. To address
183
+ this issue, Garibian expanded the theory of transition radiation into the X-ray regime in 1959 and
184
+ found the radiation energy is linearly proportional to the Lorentz factor ���, along with the radiation
185
+ peak emerging at ���max = ���−1 , if ��� ≫ 1 [160,161]. Therefore, the unique relation between the
186
+ radiation energy and the Lorentz factor offers a new route to detect ultra-relativistic particles, even
187
+ when their kinetic energy is up to tera-eV (TeV). Correspondingly, the particle detector based on the
188
+ X-ray transition radiation is now known as the transition radiation detector [56-65].
189
+ The transition radiation detector, along with other particle detectors, has made a significant
190
+ contribution to many famous experiments and the finding of new particles (e.g. W and Z bosons
191
+ [162], the Higgs boson [163]). Actually, the transition radiation detector is widely used in many
192
+ particle-physics laboratories (e.g. CERN, Femi Lab), as exemplified in Fig. 3. For example, in the
193
+ H1 experiment, electron and positron were identified at the HERA electron proton collider [56]. In
194
+
195
+ 8
196
+ the experiment E799, the Fermi lab designed a transition radiation detector with a large aperture to
197
+ provide π/e rejection [57]. In the NOMAD experiment, transition radiation detector discriminated
198
+ electron and pion and could search for the ������ → ������ oscillation [58]. In the ALICE experiment, the
199
+ transition radiation detector is served as a trigger on high ������ ���+ ���− pairs to reduce the collision rate
200
+ to the readout event rate [59]. In the super proton synchrotron (SPS) of CERN, an inorganic
201
+ scintillator-based Compton-scatter transition radiation detector in Fig. 3a is designed to detect
202
+ high-energy electrons with an ultra-high Lorentz factor [60]. In the ATLANS experiment, the
203
+ transition radiation tracker is a fast detector with thin detector layers realized with straw tubes and
204
+ could provide both tracking information and particle identification; see its cutaway view in Fig. 3b
205
+ [61]. In the compressed baryonic matter (CBM) experiment, the transition radiation detector is used
206
+ to measure common hadrons, such as low-mass dileptons, charmed hadrons, and multistrange
207
+ baryons [62].
208
+ The performance of transition radiation detectors is mainly determined by the properties of the
209
+ associated radiator and detector. For experiments with relatively-low particle multiplicity, transition
210
+ radiation detectors generally use multi-wire proportional chambers (MWPC) or straw tubes, filled
211
+ with a Xenon based gas mixture to efficiently absorb the emitted photons [63]. For experiments with
212
+ relatively-high particle multiplicity, the efficiency of traditional transition radiation detectors would
213
+ decrease significantly due to the channel occupancy. Ref. [64] showed that the performance of
214
+ transition radiation detectors could be improved by replacing MWPC or straw tubes with a
215
+ high-granularity-micro-pattern gas detector, such as gas electron multipliers as shown in Fig. 3c. In
216
+ addition, Ref. [150] found that the one-dimensional photonic crystal could create the resonance
217
+ transition radiation with ultrahigh directivity in Fig. 3d and acts as a new type of radiator.
218
+
219
+ 9
220
+ Correspondingly, the photonic crystal offers a promising versatile platform well suited for the
221
+ identification of particles at high energy with enhanced sensitivity.
222
+ Coherent light sources based on transition radiation
223
+ If the electron beam has a length much shorter than the working wavelength, all electrons can be
224
+ considered to emit in phase. As a result, the related transition radiation is coherent. The phenomenon
225
+ of coherent transition radiation was first observed in 1991 [164]. One feature of the coherent
226
+ transition radiation is that its energy could be enhanced by a factor of ��� than that of the incoherent
227
+ transition radiation, where ��� is the electron number.
228
+ For any type of free-electron radiation, it takes a finite space domain instead of a point for
229
+ photons to be emitted. This finite space domain is now known as the formation zone [165], which is
230
+ a useful concept for the coherent transition radiation. In the context of free-electron radiation, this
231
+ concept was first presented by Ter-Mikaelian in Landau’s seminar in 1952 [166], and later developed
232
+ by Landau himself [167,168], with its experimental confirmation in the 1990s. Later, Ginzburg
233
+ extended this concept into transition radiation [169]. The concept of formation zone provides
234
+ valuable guidance for practical applications based on the transition radiation. Particularly, the
235
+ influence of formation zone is generally avoided in the design of transition radiation detectors [170].
236
+ According to Ginzburg’s work [169], the length of the formation zone for the transition radiation,
237
+ namely the formation length ���f, is defined as the distance that the charge field ������ and the radiation
238
+ field ������ separate from each other. In other words, the contribution of the interference term ������ ⋅ ������
239
+ to the total field energy (proportional to
240
+ ������ + ������ 2 ) is very small outside the formation zone.
241
+ According to the definition, we have
242
+
243
+ 10
244
+ ���f =
245
+ 2���
246
+ ��� ���±��� ��� 1−
247
+ ���⊥2���2
248
+ ���2
249
+ (1)
250
+ where ��� is the angular frequency, ���⊥ is the component of wavevector perpendicular to the electron
251
+ velocity, and ±
252
+ correspond to the forward and backward radiation, respectively.
253
+ Ginzburg’s
254
+ estimation on the formation zone is actually only applicable to the photon emission during the
255
+ process of transition radiation. In 2017, along the line of Ginzburg’s thought, the concept of
256
+ formation zone was extended to the emitted surface plasmons during the process of transition
257
+ radiation [78].
258
+ With the knowledge of formation zone, the generation of coherent transition radiation mainly
259
+ relies on two ways. One way is to use an electron beam to directly bombard the optical interface. For
260
+ example, Ref. [66] shows that the coherent terahertz (THz) radiation could be generated by an
261
+ electron bunch with a duration in the order of tens of femtoseconds to picoseconds penetrating
262
+ through the plasma-vacuum interface; see Fig. 4a. Such electron bunches are produced by a
263
+ laser-plasma accelerator [66]. Similarly, the THz coherent transition radiation with energies in the
264
+ order of sub-mJ/pulse could also be induced by letting the laser-driven electron beams cross a
265
+ dielectric-vacuum interface [67] in Fig. 4b. When an electron beam has a femtosecond duration and
266
+ hundreds of kiloampere peak current and penetrates through the plasma-vacuum interface, the
267
+ terawatt ultraviolet coherent transition radiation could happen [68]; see the associated ring intensity
268
+ distribution in Fig. 4c. The other way is to use an ultrahigh-power laser to irradiate on the target
269
+ material, which further induces the photoelectric effect and makes electrons escape from the
270
+ rear-side surface of the target material. Ref. [69] shows that the terahertz radiation with a field
271
+
272
+ 11
273
+ strength up to 100 GV/m in Fig. 4d is produced by two-color, ultrashort optical pulses interacting
274
+ with under-dense helium gases at ultrahigh intensities.
275
+ Beam diagnostics based on transition radiation
276
+ In other to facilitate the implementation of high-gain free-electron laser or high-power electron
277
+ beam, the shape of electron beams should be monitored. The coherent transition radiation offers a
278
+ feasible method to diagnose the electron beam in high-energy equipment. This method mainly relies
279
+ on the measurement of angular spectral energy density [169]. To be specific, the angular spectral
280
+ energy density
281
+ ���2���total
282
+ ������������
283
+ of the coherent transition radiation [169] is
284
+ ���2���total
285
+ ������������ ≅ ���2��� ���
286
+ ���2���single
287
+ ������������
288
+ (2)
289
+ where
290
+ ���2���single
291
+ ������������
292
+ is the angular spectral energy density for the transition radiation from a single
293
+ electron, and ��� ���
294
+ is a function of longitudinal and transverse distribution parameters for the
295
+ electron beam after the Fourier transformation. With the knowledge of
296
+ ���2���single
297
+ ������������
298
+ and
299
+ ���2���total
300
+ ������������ , the
301
+ information of electron beams, namely ��� ��� , can be straightforwardly obtained in the experiment.
302
+ The beam diagnosis based on transition radiation was proposed in 1975 by Ref. [171], which
303
+ uses two parallel foils. The phase and energy information of electron bunches can be inferred from
304
+ the angular distribution of the interference pattern of transition radiation. In the following decades,
305
+ more optical components (e.g. wire grid, Michelson interferometer) are adopted to provide not only
306
+ the longitudinal and transverse distributions of electron beams but also their divergent angle with the
307
+ help of coherent transition radiation [72-76].
308
+ Figure 5 shows a variety of setups for beam diagnosis, which are widely used in high-energy
309
+ experiments and facilities, such as free-electron laser, wake-field acceleration, and large particle
310
+ collider. When the electron beam of 42 MeV passes through an aluminum foil, the coherent transition
311
+
312
+ 12
313
+ radiation with a millimeter or submillimeter wavelength is observed in Fig. 5a [72]. The length of
314
+ electron beams is measured by using a 45°-tilted foil and a polarizing Michelson interferometer in
315
+ Fig. 5b, because the spectral power of light emission is dependent on the degree of coherency, which
316
+ strongly relates to the beam size [73]. More precise measurement for the electron beam is proposed
317
+ in AWAKE experiments through the usage of seeded self-modulation as shown in Fig. 5c [74]. At the
318
+ CLARA facility, the coherent transition radiation is used to diagnose the longitudinal beam profile
319
+ for the dielectric wakefield accelerator and coherent Cherenkov diffraction radiation [75]; see the
320
+ setup in Fig. 5d.
321
+ Excitation of surface wave by using transition radiation
322
+ While surface waves can mold the flow of light at the subwavelength scale, their excitation is
323
+ generally difficult, due to their momentum mismatch with propagating waves. In addition to the
324
+ conventional schemes like gratings or prism matching, the transition radiation provides a powerful
325
+ scheme to excite surface waves [77-84], especially for those with extremely-high spatial confinement
326
+ such as graphene plasmons [78,172-175].
327
+ In 1957, Ritchie theoretically proposed a mechanism to excite surface waves by using transition
328
+ radiation [176]. This prediction was observed in experiments in 2006 [77] by using an electron beam
329
+ of 50 keV injected onto a flat gold surface as shown in Fig. 6a. In 2017, Ref. [78] theoretically
330
+ revealed a splashing transient of graphene plasmons launched by swift electrons. During the process
331
+ of transition radiation, a jet-like rise of excessive charge concentration emerges and is analogous to
332
+ the hydrodynamic Rayleigh jet in a splashing phenomenon before the launching of ripples. When the
333
+ free electrons interact with a mesoscopic structure composed of an array of nanoscale holes in a gold
334
+ film, the surface waves are firstly excited and soon transformed into propagating waves [79]. As a
335
+
336
+ 13
337
+ result, ultrashort chirped electromagnetic wave packets could be created under the irradiation of
338
+ 30-200 keV electron beams [79]. In 2019, the interaction between free electrons and photonic
339
+ topological crystals is experimentally studied in Ref. [80]. The robust edge states are excited and
340
+ observed, when a charged particle passes from one photonic crystal into another one.
341
+ Outlook
342
+ Despite the numerous applications enabled by the transition radiation, the transition radiation
343
+ itself still suffers from low intensity and low directionality, especially if the charged particles have
344
+ ultra-low energy. How to strengthen the particle-interface interaction and control the transition
345
+ radiation in the desired way remains a long-standing challenge that is highly sought after. While
346
+ metamaterials, 2D materials, and photonic crystals have been applied to tackle this challenge, there is
347
+ still plenty of room to tailor the transition radiation by exploiting artificially-engineered materials
348
+ and nanostructures. For example, we show in Fig. 7 that the gain materials, tilted hyperbolic
349
+ materials, meta-boundaries, spatial-temporal materials, and layered structures with a periodic or
350
+ random stacking might offer an enticing platform to enhance the particle-interface interaction and to
351
+ achieve exotic features of transition radiation.
352
+ The gain material in Fig. 7a in practice can be implemented, for example, by using
353
+ negative-resistance components [177-180] (e.g. microwave tunnel diodes) and optically pumped dye
354
+ molecules [181,182] (e.g. Rhodamine 800 dye molecules). While gain materials could provide a
355
+ universal way to amplify the light emission, the free-electron radiation from gain systems, including
356
+ the transition radiation, has been rarely discussed. Particularly, the influence of optical gain and the
357
+ slab thickness on the directionality of transition radiation remains elusive, while a larger optical gain
358
+ is generally thought to have a larger enhancement of the intensity of transition radiation. More rich
359
+
360
+ 14
361
+ physics of free-electron radiation could be expected in systems simultaneously with optical gain and
362
+ optical loss, such as those with parity-time symmetry [183-187]. However, the influence of the
363
+ interplay between optical gain and optical loss on the transition radiation has never been explored
364
+ before.
365
+ The hyperbolic material [188-196] is a uniaxial material that has a hyperbolic iso-frequency
366
+ contour and is featured with an extraordinarily-large photonic density state. Due to these unique
367
+ features, hyperbolic materials can greatly enhance both the particle-matter interaction and the
368
+ particle-interface interaction. However, once these high-k hyperbolic modes are excited, they cannot
369
+ be safely coupled into free space, partly due to the existence of total internal reflection and material
370
+ losses. How to overcome this issue becomes crucial for the development of novel on-chip light
371
+ sources based on ultralow-energy electrons. To mitigate this issue, the photonic hyper-crystals are
372
+ experimentally studied in Ref. [197]. The photonic hyper-crystals have combined virtues of strong
373
+ light
374
+ outcoupling
375
+ in
376
+ photonic
377
+ crystals
378
+ and
379
+ large
380
+ photonic
381
+ density-of-states
382
+ in
383
+ hyperbolic
384
+ metamaterials. Moreover, the broadband enhancement of on-chip photon extraction is achievable by
385
+ using tilted hyperbolic metamaterials in Fig. 7b [198], since their eigenmodes now become
386
+ momentum-matched with propagating waves in free space. Due to the exotic features of photonic
387
+ hyper-crystals [197,199,200] and tilted hyperbolic metamaterials [198], the transition radiation from
388
+ these exotic materials deserves more in-depth exploration.
389
+ The judicious design of electromagnetic boundary could provide a key route to control the
390
+ free-electron
391
+ radiation,
392
+ including
393
+ the
394
+ transition
395
+ radiation.

+ two-dimensional materials (e.g. graphene [201-208], hBN [209-217], twisted photonic structures
403
+ [218-227]) and metasurfaces [89, 228-235], the boundary is uniquely featured with a surface
404
+
405
+ 15
406
+ conductivity, which can be rather complex but provide an extra degree of freedom to regulate the
407
+ free-electron radiation. Without loss of generality, the boundary with a non-zero surface conductivity
408
+ is termed as the meta-boundary in Fig. 7c [236]. According to the electromagnetic boundary
409
+ conditions, the meta-boundary could be categorized into four types, including isotropic, anisotropic,
410
+ biisotropic and bianisotropic meta-boundaries [236]. While the transition radiation from the simple
411
+ isotropic meta-boundary (e.g. graphene) has been extensively studied [78,84,140-142], the transition
412
+ radiation from more complex meta-boundaries remains largely unexplored and awaits more
413
+ systematic investigation. Due to the powerfulness of metamaterial and meta-boundaries, the
414
+ manipulation of free-electron radiation (e.g. transition radiation) at will might be enabled by
415
+ combining meta-boundaries and metamaterials.
416
+ Spatial-temporal materials in Fig. 7d, such as photonic-time crystal and temporal metamaterials,
417
+ have their optical response dependent both on space and time [237-239]. The emergence of
418
+ spatial-temporal materials gets rid of fundamental limitations presented in space-engineered media
419
+ and enable many counterintuitive phenomena, such as magnet-free nonreciprocity [240] and
420
+ Cherenkov radiation in the vacuum [241,242]. Therefore, the spatial-temporal material in principle
421
+ can provide a versatile platform to tailor the transition radiation. For example, Ref. [243] showed that
422
+ a swift electron moving in a photonic-time crystal spontaneously emits radiation. When associated
423
+ with momentum-gap modes, the process of free-electron radiation is exponentially amplified by the
424
+ modulation of the refractive index [243]. Actually, the exploration of free-electron radiation from
425
+ spatial-temporal material is still in its infancy.
426
+ Due to the appearance of multiple interfaces in layered structures, the transition radiation from
427
+ each interface of the layered structure may interfere constructively or destructively. This way,
428
+
429
+ 16
430
+ through the judicious structural design, the layered structure may provide an extra degree of freedom
431
+ to tailor the particle-interface interaction. For example, if the layered structure has a periodic
432
+ stacking in Fig. 7e, the constructive interface of transition radiation from each interface can be
433
+ regarded as the excitation of high-k Bloch modes inside the photonic crystals. As advantageous to the
434
+ high-k modes in hyperbolic materials, the excited high-k Block modes in layered structures with a
435
+ periodic stacking might be safely coupled into free space, due to the umklapp scattering. Therefore,
436
+ the
437
+ particle-interface
438
+ interaction
439
+ is
440
+ promising
441
+ to
442
+ efficiently
443
+ extract
444
+ the
445
+ information
446
+ from
447
+ ultralow-energy electron, which however remains further studies. Moreover, the dispersion is
448
+ unavoidable in layered structures with a periodic stacking, either from the material-induced
449
+ dispersion or the structural-periodicity-induced dispersion. How to reduce or even eliminate the
450
+ dispersion in layered structures so that the dispersionless resonance transition radiation can be
451
+ created is still a challenge in science and technology.
452
+ If the layered structure has a non-periodic stacking in Fig. 7f, the interference of transition
453
+ radiation from each interface becomes more random but offers more degrees of freedom to tailor the
454
+ particle-interface interaction. Due to the disappearance of eigenmodes or Bloch modes in the
455
+ randomly-stacked layered structures, we can no longer predict the behavior of transition radiation
456
+ simply from the optical response of the randomly-stacked layered structures. To enable the
457
+ theoretical prediction, the rigorously analytical solution of transition radiation from the layered
458
+ structures, although being quite tedious, is mandatory. As a result, whether we can achieve the
459
+ constructive interference of transition radiation from each interface at a specific radiation angle
460
+ remains elusive. From the perspective of applications, the associated resonance conditions for
461
+ transition radiation from the randomly-stacked layered structures are highly wanted. Moreover, due
462
+
463
+ 17
464
+ to the non-period nature of the randomly-stacked layered structures, whether they can be adopted to
465
+ achieve broadband dispersionless resonance transition radiation is also worth further investigation.
