Artists of a Floating World
Authors: Gonnerman Mark
Published: January 2025

Mark Gonnerman’s essay presents an intersection between Joanne Kyger, Gary Snyder, and Allen Ginsberg via a photograph Ginsberg took of the couple and a Buddhist priest on a boat at the Sea of Japan in 1963. Gonnerman brings the three together for the photograph’s moment in time (what Ginsberg considers a sacramental union) and then disperses them at the end of his essay to their respective singular lives as Snyder and Kyger break up. Snyder continues Zen study in Japan, Kyger returns to California and subsequently moves to Bolinas, and Ginsberg takes up his place as major figure in the Beat Movement in the States. The essay is about personal relationships and marriage (Kyger and Snyder) as well as Kyger’s relationship to Beat writers, and sets the stage for Kyger’s further development independent of Beat Generation Dharma Bums.
Mythic Space and Joanne Kyger’s Poetics of Integration
Authors: Carden Mary Paniccia
Published: January 2025

Mary Paniccia Carden’s essay examines Kyger’s early work and her interest in the mythic in The Tapestry and the Web, with Kyger writing under the “Homer Dome.” However, Carden highlights figures other than Penelope, the female persona with whom Kyger has been most often associated. Exploring Kyger’s use of Demeter, Persephone, and Pan, as well as weavers such as Ariadne, Carden emphasizes her transformations of duality through integration of oppositions. Kyger’s focus on mythic figures stands in for her own way to transformation through her early work on into later life when myths outside the Western classical tradition become central to her practice.
Poet in Time of Crisis
Authors: Falk Jane
Published: January 2025

Jane Falk explores Kyger’s political interests as they appear in her poetry, examining her interest in reinhabitory politics in Bolinas in the 1970s and her espousal of the Bolinas Sewer Ponds Project, her travels in Mexico and her concern for the plight of indigenous people after NAFTA, and her outspoken views on the War on Terror in the twenty-first century. Kyger’s work emphasizes the proper use of land and language to present truth to power, the age old calling of the poet, which Falk highlights in her examination of elements including Kyger’s use of found text and of local flora and fauna as myths or fables.
John Chrysostom’s Letter to a Young Widow : Reflections on Imperial Women’s Roles at Regime Change
Authors: Washington Belinda
Published: January 2025

Chapter Three examines the pitiful exempla of imperial women, as they are depicted by John Chrysostom in his Letter to a Young Widow. Chrysostom’s letter relates the various unhappy fates of fourth-century imperial women and the sorry lot of those who survived the various regime changes. In doing so, the letter offers a microcosm of the assumptions with which imperial women were defined in the fourth and fifth centuries and highlights what function they served in the negotiation of political hierarchies. The chapter looks at how the women are presented in the letter and what a broader consideration of their experiences can tell us of their place in fourth-century politics. It then establishes how representative the fates of the imperial women mentioned in the letter were of imperial women at moments of regime change. By establishing how typical this was, broader comments on the wider changes that were taking place in the imperial system in the fourth century can be made and how this affected the lives of the women associated with the emperors. Through analysis of the letter itself and consideration of it in the broader shifting context of the imperial court, and Chrysostom’s own career, the chapter aims to distil the evolution of the roles of imperial women over the course of the long fourth century through the prism of regime changes.
Empresses on Early Byzantine Coins (Sixth to Seventh Centuries): Evidence of Power?
Authors: Drápelová Pavla Gkantzios
Published: January 2025

Chapter 8 focuses on the observation that only some imperial consorts were depicted on coins in the 6th and 7th c. The aim of the analysis is to highlight what the empresses’ representations indicate about their power and position at the imperial court and what function they served in imperial propaganda. The chapter compares their iconography and historical context with coins struck in the 4th-5th c. Whereas in the 5th c., female members of the imperial house appeared on the obverses of solidi in their own right, imperial women in the 6th and 7th c. appeared exclusively on the reverses of bronze coins. Furthermore, their names were not included in the coins’ legends and they were never depicted alone, but always in presence of their male counterpart. The chapter argues that women were represented on coins in the 6th and 7th centuries mainly in moments when emperors needed to strengthen their position and to emphasise their legitimacy. Therefore, the images on the coins do not necessarily indicate anything about the status of the empresses and the power they held. The female empress on early Byzantine coins was, in essence, perceived as guaranteeing legitimacy and dynastic continuity of the ruling family.
What Can DKIST/DL-NIRSP Tell Us about Quiet-Sun Magnetism?
Authors: Liu 刘 Jiayi 嘉奕 , Sun 孙 Xudong 旭东 , Schuck Peter W. , Jaeggli Sarah A.
Published: January 2025

Quiet-Sun regions cover most of the Sun's surface; their magnetic fields contribute significantly to solar chromospheric and coronal heating. However, characterizing the magnetic fields of the quiet Sun is challenging due to their weak polarization signal. The 4 m Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) is expected to improve our understanding of quiet-Sun magnetism. In this paper, we assess the diagnostic capability of the Diffraction Limited Near Infrared Spectropolarimeter (DL-NIRSP) instrument on DKIST for the energy transport processes in the quiet-Sun photosphere. To this end, we synthesize high-resolution, high-cadence Stokes profiles of the Fe i 630 nm lines using a realistic magnetohydrodynamic simulation, degrade them to emulate the DKIST/DL-NIRSP observations, and subsequently infer the vector magnetic and velocity fields. For the assessment, we first verify that a widely used flow tracking algorithm, the Differential Affine Velocity Estimator for Vector Magnetograms, works well for estimating the large-scale (>200 km) photospheric velocity fields with these high-resolution data. We then examine how the accuracy of the inferred velocity depends on the temporal resolution. Finally, we investigate the reliability of the Poynting flux estimate and its dependence on the model assumptions. The results suggest that the unsigned Poynting flux, estimated with existing schemes, can account for about 71.4% and 52.6% of the reference ground truth at

log
τ
=
0.0

and

log

. However, the net Poynting flux tends to be significantly underestimated. The error mainly arises from the underestimated contribution of the horizontal motion. We discuss the implications for DKIST observations.
Reverberation Mapping of Two Variable Active Galactic Nuclei: Probing the Distinct Characteristics of the Inner and Outer Broad-line Regions

Current reverberation mapping (RM) studies primarily focus on single emission lines, particularly the Hβ line, which may not fully reveal the geometry and kinematic properties of the broad-line region (BLR). To overcome this limitation, we have conducted multiline RM observations on two highly variable active galactic nuclei (AGNs), KUG 1141+371 and UGC 3374, using the Lijiang 2.4 m telescope. Our goal was to investigate the detailed structures of different regions within the BLR. We measured the time lags of multiple broad emission lines (Hα, Hβ, Hγ, He i, and He ii) and found clear evidence of radial ionization stratification in the BLRs of both AGNs. Velocity-resolved RM analysis revealed distinct geometry and kinematics between the inner and outer regions of the BLRs. Assuming that the velocity-resolved lags reflect the kinematics of the BLR, our observations indicate that: (1) in KUG 1141+371, the inner BLR exhibits outflow signatures, while the outer region is consistent with virialized motion; and (2) in UGC 3374, the inner region displays virial motion, while the outer region shows inflow. Furthermore, we detected “breathing” behavior in the outer BLR regions of both AGNs, while the inner BLR regions show “anti-breathing,” which may be linked to intrinsic BLR properties. We discuss these findings in the context of various BLR formation models, highlighting the importance of long-term, multiline RM campaigns in understanding of BLR structure and evolution. Additionally, our results suggest that the observed stratification in BLR geometry and kinematics may contribute to the scatter in black hole mass estimates and the rapid changes in velocity-resolved RM signatures reported in recent studies.
Figuring Out Gas and Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). VIII. Complex and Stochastic Metallicity Gradients at z > 2

Gas-phase metallicity gradients are a crucial element in understanding the chemical evolution of galaxies. We use the FOGGIE simulations to study the metallicity gradients (∇Z) of six Milky Way–like galaxies throughout their evolution. FOGGIE galaxies generally exhibit steep negative gradients for most of their history, with only a few short-lived instances reaching positive slopes that appear to arise mainly from interactions with other galaxies. FOGGIE concurs with other simulation results but disagrees with the robust observational finding that flat and positive gradients are common at z > 1. By tracking the metallicity gradient at a rapid cadence of simulation outputs (∼5–10 Myr), we find that theoretical gradients are highly stochastic: the FOGGIE galaxies spend ∼30%–50% of their time far away from a smoothed trajectory inferred from analytic models or other, less high-cadence simulations. This rapid variation makes instantaneous gradients from observations more difficult to interpret in terms of physical processes. Because of these geometric and stochastic complications, we explore nonparametric methods of quantifying the evolving metallicity distribution at z > 1. We investigate how efficiently nonparametric measures of the 2D metallicity distribution respond to metal production and mixing. Our results suggest that new methods of quantifying and interpreting gas-phase metallicity will be needed to relate trends in upcoming high-z James Webb Space Telescope observations with the underlying physics of gas accretion, expulsion, and recycling in early galaxies.
Protist ecology in Patagonian peatlands: pH, organic phosphorus, and sulfate as key drivers of testate amoeba diversity in undisturbed ecosystems
Authors: Fernandez Leonardo , Domínguez Erwin , Parra-Gómez Antonio , Lara Pandi Enrique
Published: January 2025

Peatlands in southern Chile, particularly in the remote Aysén region, provide unique ecosystems that remain understudied despite their ecological significance. Testate amoebae, a group of shelled protists, are important components of these ecosystems due to their roles in nutrient cycling and their sensitivity to environmental changes, which make them valuable bioindicators. However, research on the ecological drivers shaping their diversity and community composition in Chilean peatlands remains scarce. This study investigates the spatial distribution and diversity of testate amoebae across five peatlands in the Aysén region. By analyzing environmental variables such as pH, dissolved organic carbon, and sulfate, we identify key factors influencing community structure. Our findings highlight significant spatial turnover in testate amoeba communities, suggesting that local environmental gradients strongly shape their distribution. Notably, the Sphagnum-dominated peatlands exhibit higher diversity compared to mixed vegetation peatlands. The redundancy analysis reveals that organic phosphorus, pH, and sulfate are the most influential variables affecting testate amoeba communities. This study fills a critical gap in the understanding of microbial biodiversity in Chilean peatlands and underscores the importance of conserving these near-pristine ecosystems as reservoirs of microbial diversity and natural archives of environmental change.
Séjour linguistique et développement de la compétence d’interaction en L2 : sur l’intersection entre acquisition et construction de rapports sociaux
Authors: Pekarek Doehler Simona
Published: January 2025

Cette étude longitudinale en analyse conversationnelle interroge l’intersection entre la trajectoire acquisitionnelle d’une apprenante de français L2 et les rapports sociaux qu’elle noue avec sa famille d’accueil durant un séjour linguistique. L’analyse se concentre sur les interactions durant les repas (lieux privilégiés de la socialisation en famille). Nous montrons que (i) le séjour linguistique a un effet structurant sur le développement de la L2, et notamment de la compétence d’interaction en L2 ; (ii) ce développement est inextricablement lié aux processus d’interaction et aux liens sociaux que l’apprenante tisse avec ces interlocuteurs par le biais de ces interactions : le partage progressif des normes et valeurs de la micro-communauté d’accueil, ainsi que les rapports interpersonnels épistémiques et affectifs qui s’établissent au fil du temps contribuent à configurer les opportunités d’utilisation et d’acquisition de la L2.
Gallai's path decomposition conjecture for block graphs
Authors: Chen Xiaohong , Wu Baoyindureng
Published: January 2025

Let $ G $ be a graph of order $ n $. A path decomposition $ \mathcal{P} $ of $ G $ is a collection of edge-disjoint paths that covers all the edges of $ G $. Let $ p(G) $ denote the minimum number of paths needed in a path decomposition of $ G $. Gallai conjectured that if $ G $ is connected, then $ p(G)\leq \lceil\frac{n}{2}\rceil $. In this paper, we prove that the above conjecture holds for all block graphs.
Les communistes du Pas-de-Calais et le sport ouvrier pendant l’entre-deux-guerres
Authors: Noël David
Published: January 2025

La période de l’entre-deux-guerres est marquée par l’essor du sport ouvrier, qui se développe dans le département du Pas-de-Calais dans un contexte de vives tensions entre communistes et socialistes. Organisation marginale au sein de la galaxie communiste, la Fédération sportive du travail (FST) est soutenue par les municipalités communistes, mais pèse peu face aux grandes fédérations sportives en voie de professionnalisation. Durant le Front populaire, la réunification des fédérations sportives ouvrières au sein de la Fédération sportive et gymnique du travail (FSGT) donne une nouvelle impulsion au sport travailliste qui s’efforce de séduire les jeunes ouvriers par des pratiques plus populaires et rassembleuses.

The Glass Ceiling and Its Influence on the Psychological Contract With the Company
Authors: Marcos Blanca Martínez
Published: January 2025

The glass ceiling is an invisible barrier that makes it difficult for women, simply because they are women, to access higher positions in organizations (whether public or private, although the barrier is even greater in the latter). Far from drastically reducing and eradicating this type of behaviour, the need to educate, make visible and combat this type of barrier has become a priority. The study aims to demonstrate that the glass ceiling has a direct negative impact on organizational engagement and loyalty. This negative impact not only generates negative effects internally in the company, but also externally (it worsens reputation and causes damage to the company's image).
Navigating Success
Authors: Opong Charles K. O. , Fider Carlene O.
Published: January 2025

Individuals from the Caribbean region and the various countries in the continent of Africa who move to the United States (U.S.) for educational opportunities contribute to globalization in several ways. Their influence has been shown to have an impact on the social, educational, and economic milieu of the country that they migrate to. The goal of this proposed chapter is to highlight the impact that West African and Caribbean scholars have had in the classroom as well as the workplace, and thus how these people support and enrich globalization, which ultimately may lead to greater connectivity, inclusion, and societal success. The immigrant experience for individuals from the Caribbean and the continent of Africa who move to the United States for school can be complex and multifaceted. Many immigrants find that adapting to a new cultural environment can be challenging, especially if there are significant differences in language, customs, and social norms, and this can result in feeling homesick.

The present work had as its theme “Customer satisfaction, value and loyalty: the case of the Operational Company of Security (COPS) – Portugal”, it was guided by the following starting questions: What is the degree of customer satisfaction with the service provided by the company COPS in Portugal? What is the perception of customers regarding the valuation of COPS services? What is the level of pretension of customers to retain in the company. To obtain the answers to these questions, in addition to reviewing the literatudo about the key concepts, based on bibliographic research, a survey was conducted and a questionnaire was applied, with closed and semi-closed questions to COPS clients. The study had an essentially exploratory and descriptive nature. It was concluded that COPS customers are satisfied to be provided with better services at low cost. They attributed a high value to the services they receive, more than 90%, they intend to be loyal to COPS, to enjoy its services, as it is the company of preference of 92.6% of customers.
Workplace Discrimination and Cultures
Authors: Tinuoye Adekunle Theophilius
Published: January 2025

Discrimination against women is as old as mankind. From early human records, whether in the family, business, religious and cultural settings, women have endured enormous discrimination. The access to education and removal of impediments against the progress of women led to enhanced entry of women into paid employment, their gradual integration and prosperity in diverse spheres and recognition that access to decent jobs is key to maximizing women abilities. The pervasive realization is that unfettered enjoyment of socio-economic rights by women is central to building thriving societies, families and nations. Yet, despite great progress at work and array of policies, and laws to advance women workers' rights, discrimination against women at work is still widespread globally. Today's woman worker still faces discrimination in hiring, progression, training, dignity and treatment at work which further encumbers their progress and hinders the quest for gender equality. This paper examines the practical aspects of varied discrimination women encounter at work
Socioeconomic Status and Emergent Primary Literacy and Numeracy Among Bangladeshi Children
Authors: Uddin Emaj
Published: January 2025

We know little about how socioeconomic inequalities transmit disparities in young children's early primary literacy and numeracy. Drawing from family investment model, this chapter explains parental material investment (PMI) and maternal educational involvement (MEI) by which socioeconomic inequalities impart disparities in first-graders' literacy and numeracy scores. In doing so, three-web data on socioeconomic status (SES), parental investments, and numeracy and literacy scores were collected from Bangladeshi first-graders (N = 425, Mage = 5.60 years, SD = 1.09, 52.47% boys) and mothers during school-entry through final exam. The results from structural equation modeling suggested that compared to high-SES, low-SES and fewer PMIs and PEIs were directly and indirectly associated with poor literacy and numeracy achievement. Although both factors partially mediated the relation between low-SES and poor scores, lower MEI was stronger than PMI in the relation between low-SES and children's poor literacy and numeracy scores during first-grade.

Mining is key to economic growth, but historical mining techniques and the absence of periodic mined-land reclamation, remediation, and restoration have led to significant environmental and human health hazards. New mining methods continue to have major waste impacts that must be addressed during and after carrying out the actual mining operation. Some new operations occur in areas where the actual material contains sufficient residual minerals such that further development, remaining, and subsequent reclamation of the waste are economically viable. By examining multiple factors simultaneously, these methods facilitate minimizing the influence of subjectivity and bias on decisions. Moreover, MCDM method furnishes a framework to evaluate trade-offs between conflicting objectives, permitting decision-makers to navigate through intricate decisions effectively.
