Introdução: Os Programas de Residência Multiprofissional (PRM) em Saúde são mecanismos de cooperação intersetorial que visam a inserção de jovens profissionais da saúde qualificados para exercer suas profissões no mercado de trabalho, particularmente preparados para trabalhar e contribuir para o desenvolvimento e construção do SUS. O Programa de Residência em Saúde Coletiva com foco em gestão e planejamento em saúde permite projetar a habitual rotina reproduzida no dia a dia dos serviços de saúde, como antigas práticas da saúde pública tradicional para uma expectativa de inovação que modifique os modelos de cuidado e gestão em saúde. Objetivo: Avaliar a atuação, atividades, a interação e estrutura organizacional de um PRM. Metodologia: O estudo transversal foi realizado no Alto Sertão da Paraíba com amostra (n=29) participante do Programa de Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde Coletiva (tutores, residentes, preceptores e coordenadores). Esses profissionais responderam a um questionário autoaplicado que envolvia questões avaliativas no âmbito estrutural, organizacional e de atuação do PRM. A análise dos dados foi obtida a partir da frequência absoluta e relativa dos dados. Resultado: Os resultados mostraram dados quantitativos divididos em três diferentes dimensões do programa, a dimensão da gestão, da estrutura organizacional e do processo pedagógico. Quanto ao grau de envolvimento entre tutores, preceptores e IES na implantação do PRMSC, 50% consideraram que houve um envolvimento parcial na implantação. No quesito vínculo entre a IES com a RMSC, a totalidade dos participantes respondeu que esse vínculo se faz presente. Na vertente da participação dos residentes, tutores e preceptores nas avaliações sistemáticas do PRMSC, 42,9% consideraram que existe pouca participação. Sobre o processo de avaliação do PRMSC, 28,6% dos profissionais envolvidos consideraram que as avaliações são previstas e realizadas ao longo do programa, entretanto uma parcela semelhante de profissionais considerou que essas avaliações são previstas e não realizadas. A partir desses dados foi possível a identificação e discussão de fragilidades que devem ser superadas para o fortalecimento do PRMSC. Conclusão: Conclui-se que os instrumentos avaliativos são importantes para a identificação de pontos que precisam ser melhorados dentro do programa, utilizando-se da percepção da amostra inserida no programa para direcionamentos que visem promover melhorias nos pontos de fragilidades encontrados, possibilitando assim o fortalecimento e desenvolvimento do programa.

Published: February 2022

In connection with the increase in the number of dental implants installed, there is an increase in the number of inflammatory processes — mucositis and peri-implantitis, which rank first among the complications after dental implantation. Our study confirmed the high clinical effectiveness of the GBT protocol combined with the use of a brush for reciprocating rotation with pulsation in the complex of supportive periodontal therapy. Hence, we can recommend this complex not only for patients at risk (with a history of inflammatory periodontal diseases), but also for other patients with dental implants. This protocol of maintenance therapy is a simple and cost-effective way to prevent inflammatory complications after dental implantation.

Published: February 2022

A Au/Ta/Ti metal multilayer was developed to improve the high vacuum packaging process for microdevice fabrication. This study revealed that the wafer coated with the Au/Ta/Ti layer could form direct bonding and absorb residual gas. We investigated the effect of Ta layer thickness on the diffusion of Ti atoms. The Au/Ta/Ti metal multilayers were successfully bonded after a degassing process when the Ta barrier layer is thicker than 1.5 nm. Moreover, the Au/Ta/Ti metal film effectively absorbed the residual gas molecules by annealing at 350 °C. As the annealing temperature for the gas gettering is lower than the previous reports, the Au/Ta/Ti metal multilayer could be useful for the future vacuum packaging process.
Ultrasound guided erector spinae plane catheter for thoracotomy: a case report
Authors: Usman Ali , Khan Ahsun Waqar , Ijaz Muhammad Khurram
Published: February 2022

Major thoracic surgery results in severe postoperative pain. Epidural analgesia is considered the gold standard for pain management after thoracic surgery. However, epidural blocks are contraindicated in certain clinical conditions. Pain management in such patients poses a unique challenge to the anesthesiologists. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a less invasive and relatively new technique, which has shown promising results. This case report describes the use of ESPB as an alternate analgesic technique. A 65-year-old man underwent thoracotomy and left upper lobe resection. Intraoperative and postoperative pain was managed with intermittent boluses of bupivacaine through the erector spinae plane catheter. Effective analgesia was achieved with minimal morphine consumption in postoperative period. Although central neuraxial blocks are considered to be gold standard for major thoracic surgery but where applicable, alternatives can be opted for better patient outcomes.

Bispectral index monitoring in spinal anesthesia with sedation can prevent dexmedetomidine related bradycardia: a randomized clinical trial
Authors: Kim Jiwook , Kim Hui Young , Yun Minsu , Lee Jeongyeop , Kim Joo-Duck , Kang Donghee
Published: February 2022

Background: An unintentional large dose of dexmedetomidine during sedation can lead to increased side effects such as bradycardia and hypotension. We investigated whether the frequency of bradycardia in patients undergoing surgery under spinal anesthesia and sedation with dexmedetomidine was effected if bispectral index (BIS) was used to monitor the sedation.

Methodology: Fifty patients between 20 and 60 y of age, who underwent spinal anesthesia, were included in this study. The patients were divided into two groups (control and BIS groups). Patients in the control group were administered a loading dose of 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine for the first 10 min without BIS monitoring, followed by a maintenance dose of 0.2 μg/kg/h. Patients in the BIS group received a loading dose of 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine for the first 10 min. The maintenance dose in this group was administered at the discretion of the anesthesiologist to maintain the BIS score between 50 and 70. The baseline heart rate (HR), lowest HR, and the difference between baseline and the lowest HR were calculated.

Results: The baseline HR was 74.4 ± 11.0 beats per minute (bpm) and 80.9 ± 16.0 bpm, in the control and BIS groups respectively (p = 0.098). The difference between the baseline and lowest HR in the control and BIS groups was 19.4 ± 7.6 bpm and 25.5 ± 8.8 bpm, respectively (p = 0.011). Low baseline HR was positively correlated with a reduced lowest HR.

Conclusions: The frequency of bradycardia during sedation with dexmedetomidine decreased with BIS monitoring. Patients with a low baseline HR were more likely to develop bradycardia during sedation with dexmedetomidine. Therefore, BIS monitoring may be helpful in patients with low baseline HR.

Published: February 2022

The use of a product that is not environmentally friendly has become a crucial issue in preserving the environment. The waste from marketing activities, such as plastic waste, is currently becoming a threat to the environment and the economic sector. Companies must understand this problem and respond to it by providing products or services that can minimize environmental damage. The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of green knowledge, green brand, and willingness to be environmentally friendly toward a green purchase behavior. The object of this study is consumers in Bandung City, Indonesia, who have the experience of purchasing environmentally-friendly products such as eco-bag (shopping bags) as a means to minimize plastic waste. This study uses a quantitative method with explanatory research. The samples are taken from 125 respondents who were collected in three days in different places. The results of this study indicate that there is a quite high influence of green knowledge, green brand, and willingness to be environmentally friendly in explaining consumer purchasing behavior. This study provides the implication that in order to increase the purchase of green products, companies need to educate consumers regarding the benefits of using an environmentally-friendly product and provide a brand image that can support and promote green marketing.

Authors: UDISI LAWRENCE
Published: February 2022

Researchers in the fields of health and development have known for a long time that health and development are intertwined and have major effects on human potential, communities, and countries' ability to reduce poverty. Economic development generates financial resources that may be spent in health and total well-being inputs, and economic growth also contributes to a healthy population. Global wealth has grown, economic activity and exchanges have expanded, life expectancy has risen dramatically due to the elimination of illnesses long thought to be insurmountable, and many more people have gained access to material prosperity as a result. At the same time, there are threats to health and well-being such as the emergence of the covid-19 pandemic with its negative consequences. The Covid-19 pandemic, otherwise known as coronavirus disease “is an infectious disease which has since been declared as a global pandemic and public emergency by the World Health Organization (WHO) in January 2020. Since the discovery of the disease globally between December 31, 2019 and April 1, 2021, a whole 127 million confirmed cases have been verified, and more than 2.8 million people have died as a result Nigeria has over 162, 891 clinically diagnosed and confirmed cases with 2,054 deaths during the same period. The main objectives of this paper, therefore, are to analyze the threat of the disease to exacerbate poverty, as well as the implications for achieving the sustainable development goals in the country using the Social Development theory as a guide for the study.

Background: Gbogbonise Epa Ijebu is a commercially sold native concoction in South-West, Nigeria, with the potential of curing many ailments as claimed by the manufacturer and vendors. This study investigated the antimicrobial quality and efficacy of Gbogbonise Epa Ijebu. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 samples of the herbal remedy were purchased from local vendors in Ilishan-Remo Community of Ogun State, Nigeria and were assessed for their microbiological quality using standard microbiological methods. Also, the efficacy of the herbal remedy was tested against some selected uropathogens using the Punch-hole agar diffusion method. Data generated were analyzed using the Instant GraphPad software package and P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The outcome of the study shows that half (50%) of the herbal remedy samples examined were sterile, while the other half (50%) were contaminated with a microbial count of <10 CFU/mL. The microbial isolates recovered from the herbal remedy include: Staphylococcus aureus (8.3%), Coagulase negative Staphylococcus (75%) and Microsporium spp (16.7%). Assessment of the antimicrobial potential of the herbal remedy show that the test herbal remedy had strong inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus (17±0.6 mm), Escherichia coli (16.3±0.3 mm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16.3±0.3 mm), Klebsiella pneumoniae (15±0.6 mm) and Proteus mirabilis (14±0.8 mm), except Candida albican, at a concentration of 200 mg/mL. The combined herbal solution and standard drug gave higher zone diameter of inhibition: Klebsiella pneumoniae (25±0.6 mm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (24±0.6 mm), Staphylococcus aureus (23.7±0.3 mm), Escherichia coli (23.3±0.3 mm) and Candida albican (15±0.6mm), except Proteus mirabilis. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal/Fungicidal Concentration (MBC/MFC) of the herbal remedy for all the test isolates (except Candida albican) was 100mg/mL and 200mg/mL, respectively. The result of the phytochemical screening showed the presence of alkaloids, anthraquinones, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, saponins and tannins, while steroids and resins were absent. Conclusion: The outcome of this study further strengthens the claim of efficacy made by the manufacturer and vendors of the herbal remedy. However, more attention should be given to quality preparations, packaging and storage in view of the general safety of the consumers.

Published: February 2022

To integrate with the jawbone and gum tissues, a prosthetic dental material must be appealing, long-lasting, repairable, cleanable, and bio-compatible. In terms of new prosthetic materials, prosthodontics is rapidly evolving. Despite the fact that all artificial materials emit compounds into the oral environment, side effects and unpleasant responses are possible. We utilized Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) to conduct an automated and manual search to find clinical studies that looked at the relationship between prosthetic materials and biohazards. A 'ideal' material will have properties that are equal to or very close to those of the material being replaced. One of the most important properties for any material used in the human body is biocompatibility, or more specifically bioactivity. Unlike other implanted materials, the biocompatibility of dental materials varies depending on their structure and state.

Authors: Jafaru Yahaya , Abubakar Danladi
Published: February 2022

Introduction

Safe medication administration is a vital process that ensures patients' safety and quality of life. However, reports of medication errors and their solutions are lacking. The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between medication administration safety practices and perceived barriers among nurses in northern Nigeria.

Methods

A descriptive approach to research and cross-sectional design was applied to this study. The study population included nurse employees of the Zamfara State Government in northern Nigeria. Simple random sampling and systematic sampling were used in selecting the respondents of the study. Descriptive analysis and the Spearman rank-order correlation were used in data analysis.

Results

Fewer than 50% of the respondents were found to agree or strongly agree that they identify allergic patients before administering medication. Most of the respondents had agreed or strongly agreed with the following as barriers to medication administration safety practices: lack of appropriate coordination between physicians and nurses, and lack of favorable policies and facilities. There was a very weak positive correlation between medication safety practices and barriers to medication safety practices, and the correlation was statistically significant (rs = 0.180, P = 0.009).

Conclusion

There was a high level of desirable medication administration safety practices that the respondents followed. Nonidentification of a patient's allergic status and inadequate information on the effects of medications were among the identified medication administration practice gaps. There should be policies guiding medication administration in all hospitals in Zamfara, Nigeria.
ПОТЕНЦІАЛ РОЗВИТКУ ЕКОТУРИЗМУ В РЕГІОНАХ УКРАЇНИ
Authors: Бєлобородова М. В. , Юрчишина Л. І. , Козинець А. П.
Published: February 2022

У статті досліджено потенціал екологічного туризму в регіонах України на основі тестування екологічних кривих Кузнеця (ЕКК), побудованих через співвідношення викидів в атмосферне повітря на кв. км регіону та валового регіонального продукту на душу населення. Показником туристичного потенціалу регіону вибрано валову додану вартість за такими видами економічної діяльності, як мистецтво, спорт, розваги та відпочинок і тимчасове розміщення та організація харчування (за період 2005–2018 рр. у приведених цінах). За наведеним показником вибрано Дніпропетровську, Львівську, Одеську області, як такі, що мають найвищу частку ВДВ за зазначеними видами економічної діяльності, а також побудовано ЕКК за даними в середньому по Україні. Більш ранній період проходження поворотної точки ЕКК в регіоні дає змогу зробити висновок про стійкість тенденції до екологічної переорієнтації населення. Доведено, що екотуризм має перспективи розвитку лише після досягнення певного рівня валового регіонального продукту і, відповідно, отримання населенням певного рівня прибутку, який і дає змогу поширитися стійким «зеленим» тенденціям у сфері організації відпочинку. За результатами дослідження зроблено висновок, що Дніпропетровська та Львівська області, а також Україна загалом пройшли поворотну точку на початку другої половини досліджуваного періоду (2012–2015 рр.), і лише Одеська область характеризується найбільш стійкими тенденціями до екологізації туризму у зв’язку з проходженням поворотної точки ЕКК у 2009 р. Тенденції ЕКК для Львівської області збігаються із середніми по Україні. Особливості ЕКК Дніпропетровської області зумовлені вищим рівнем ВРП на душу населення, який відображає проходження поворотної точки ЕКК (44 650 грн на душу населення проти середнього показника по Україні 32 002 грн на душу населення). Відповідно, доведено наявність соціальних та ринкових передумов для активного розвитку екологічного туризму в Україні та найбільших її туристичних регіонах. Перспективи подальших досліджень полягають у підвищенні специфікації ЕКК через розширення переліку викидів шкідливих речовин, а також конкретизації напрямів регіональної екологічної політики у сфері стимулювання та поширення екотуризму.
The Water-Energy-Climate Nexus Under International Law: A Central Asian Perspective
Authors: Boute Anatole
Published: February 2022

Water, energy, and climate change are intrinsically related to each other but are nonetheless subject to different international legal regimes. The fragmented nature of water, energy, and climate governance represents a challenge for the sustainable management of resources in the energy and water landscape of the 21st century. Regulatory choices in one field can potentially undermine the policy objectives pursued in the other fields. Promoting conventional and unconventional energy production for energy security purposes increases pressure on the availability of fresh water resources and contributes to climate change. Climate change exacerbates the scarcity of water resources, which leads to increasing tensions relating to water access and energy supply in certain regions of the world. Water- and energy-related tensions are particularly acute in Central Asia. Because of its large energy reserves and strategic location in the heart of Eurasia, the Central Asian region is of significant importance for world energy markets. In addition to fossil energy, Central Asia holds large water resources. However, energy and water resources are unevenly distributed in the region, which creates a need for close transboundary cooperation in order to ensure equitable and sustainable access to these vital resources. Despite the mutual benefits of cooperation in Central Asia, governments are reluctant to rely on their neighbors for their water and energy security. States’ refusal to cooperate generates high energy, social, economic, and environmental costs, and poses a serious threat to peace and stability in a region of particular geopolitical relevance. External legal mechanisms are needed to overcome the present political obstacles to transboundary cooperation in resources management. In an effort to overcome the fragmented nature of water, energy, and climate law, this Article examines how international law—in particular the principle of transboundary cooperation—can contribute to addressing the resource management challenges in Central Asia. Additionally, this analysis aims to contribute to the development of international law on transboundary resources management. Based on the Central Asian case study, this Article argues in favor of an integrated approach to water-energy-climate regulation in order to achieve water-energy-climate security in a mutually reinforcing way.
Tiny Things with a Huge Impact: The International Regulation of Nanomaterials
Authors: Picecchi Dario
Published: February 2022

Mounting evidence demonstrates that nanotechnology and nanomaterials impose severe environmental risks. To minimize these risks, the usage and handling of certain nanomaterials could be addressed under existing treaties such as the Rotterdam Convention, the Stockholm Convention, and the Basel Convention. However, even if existing treaties govern the handling of certain nanomaterials, no treaty effectively regulates all the specific challenges that nanomaterials pose to the global environment. Consequently, a completely new regulatory instrument is required. An international organization could take responsibility for developing and promoting such a nanospecific international legal framework. By incorporating the precautionary principle, a technology transfer, research cooperation, and a duty to promote transparency, the new legal framework would provide adequate measures to protect the environment from nanomaterials and their risks.

Published: February 2022

Purpose: The aim of this work was to determine anaerobic performance in male amputee football players considering types and levels of limb impairment, playing position, anthropometric parameters, and comparing the findings to reference values. Relationship between parameters in the laboratory anaerobic test and the handgrip test was checked. Methods: The 30-second Wingate Anaerobic Test (peak power, mean power, relative peak power, relative mean power, time to achieve peak power, fatigue index) on the arm-crank ergometer (LODE ANGIO), the FUTREX 6100 (Futrex, Gaithersburg, USA) and the handgrip test were used in amputee football players (n = 23). Anthropometric measurements were collected. Results: There were no differences in anaerobic results between players considering types and levels of limb impairment. Forwards had significantly higher relative mean and peak power (p = 0.049, d = 0.82; p = 0.049, d = 0.81), and lower amputation-adjusted body mass index (p = 0.001, d = 1.50) than defenders. For peak power, 19 out 23 achieved, and for relative peak power, 22 out 23 achieved results from “average” to “elite”. Peak power strongly correlated to handgrip strength results. Conclusions: Amputee football requires a high level of power from players. Maintaining appropriate body composition is important for amputee football players to have better anaerobic performance during the game. The 30-second Wingate Anaerobic Test can be used to assess anaerobic performance in AF players. Sport-specific anaerobic performance laboratory tests and field-based tests using in indirect upper limbs’ peak power monitoring would be beneficial for coaches.
How to teach safe landing after the jump? The use of biofeedback to minimize the shock forces generated in elements of modern dance
Authors: Gorwa Joanna , Michnik Robert , Nowakowska-Lipiec Katarzyna
Published: February 2022

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the possible use of biofeedback (information on the course and values of ground reaction forces (GRF) during landing following the performance of a dance evolution) for training minimising impact loads after a jump in modern dance. Methods: The tests involved the analysis of a total of 60 expressive elements of modern dance performed by 5 soloists. The tests involved the recording of the vertical component of GRF (GRFz) vector using Kistler platform in the landing phase following the performance of modern dance jumps. The dancers performed the above-named jumps three times in successive tests: a reference test (without biofeedback) and the next two tests with biofeedback, after the obtainment of information about the vertical value of GRF. After each performance, the dancers watched a course of GRF and films showing the recorded landing phase. Results: Applying of a proposed didactic laboratory session led to: extension of contact time and of time preceding the obtainment of the maximum value of GRFz, reduction of the maximum values of the vertical components of the GRF, reduction of the loading rate of the ground reaction force, increase of an impulse of the vertical component of GRF in the entire stance phase and in the shock absorption phase. Conclusions: Proposed didactic laboratory session with biofeedback may result in the change of the post-jump shock absorption technique.

Published: February 2022

Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the general kinematics of the cycle, leveling of the center of mass and inverted pendulum model in school-age children when they walk at three different auto-selected speeds. Methods: The kinematics of walking cycle, angular actions that contribute to reducing the vertical displacement of body center of mass (pelvis, hip, knee and ankle) and pendulumlike determining variables (mechanical work, pendulum-like recovery and congruity percentage), were analyzed in children for three different self-selected speeds. Differences for each variable with the speed were tested by ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc analysis. Omega squared (ω2 ) was calculated for the values of the effect sizes. Results: None of the angular variables associated with the leveling of the vertical trajectory of body center of mass changed. Likewise, recovery and congruity percentage presented values similar to those obtained in previous studies and did not show significant changes with the speeds. Conclusions: Nevertheless, changes in horizontal mechanical work and cycle phases, indicate that at some point during the cycle the mechanical energy transfer may have been affected for speed changes. Our results warn about the implication that small changes in the speed during functional evaluations of gait in children may have.

Leveraging the ‘Dual Layer’ in Enhancing the Data Security Safeguards in Cloud Environment
Authors: Gupta Anoushka
Published: February 2022

One of the significant benefits of distributed computing is dividing information between different
organizations. Notwithstanding, this benefit itself has a danger to information. It is important to
ensure communication to refute likely risks to the data. Encryption is a tremendously powerful
instrument concerning securing information. This paper proposes another span of cryptographic
double-layer encryption to make the information put away in the cloud safer and dependable.
There are promptly accessible numerous different encryption methods accessible at present;
however incapable of giving adequate security. This paper intends to propose a new encryption
strategy named double encryption. It depends on the well-known encryption analysis, ais a
symmetric-key study. We will offer an extra layer of rabbit calculation around encoded
information, which will assist with giving greater protection from Brute force and one more sort of
attack. Assuming that an interloper recognizes a solitary key of the cryptosystem, it isn't easy to
unscramble the first message. This paper plans to recommend a viewpoint that is a twofold layer
encryption technique to guarantee security in the cloud. This proposed twofold layer encryption
will acquire the information while securing and participating in a cloud environment. This plan
utilizes the incredible handling expertise of distributed computing and can proficiently guarantee
cloud information protection and security

Psychological Impact and Psychological Safety: Problem Formulation
Authors: Лаптев А.А. , Сорокоумова С.Н. , Юдин О.А.
Published: February 2022

В статье рассматриваются основные подходы к изучению психологического воздействия на личность и ее безопасности. Авторы анализируют различные точки зрения ученых на массовое сознание, виды и принципы психологического воздействия, в том числе информационно-психологического, на отдельного человека и на массы; методы и приемы влияния СМИ на сознание людей.Подробно раскрываются такие формы скрытого принуждения, как психологические манипуляции, дезинформация, агрессивная пропаганда, лоббирование, шантаж, технологии антикризисного управления, широко используемые в современных операциях информационной и психологической войны.Описываются методы манипуляции: информационная перегрузка, дозированная информация, большая ложь, смешение правды и лжи, затягивание во времени, возвратный удар, своевременная ложь.Обращается внимание на использование современными СМИ не только индивидуальных приемов, но и специальных манипуляционных технологий, к которым относятся дезинформация, лоббирование, пропаганда, шантаж, провокация, и раскрывается их суть.Дается толкование понятия «безопасность человека», описываются ее виды.Формулируется вывод о том, что важнейший вопрос информационно-психо­логической безопасности личности в настоящее время недостаточно проработан в связи с отсутствием научно-теоретической базы для аргументированного определения факторов информационно-психологического воздействия на человека и их критериев, единого подхода к определению степени информационно-психологической угрозы, а также отраслевой специфики проблемы.

The article treats major approaches to the investigation of psychological impact on people and to the investigation of information and psychological security. The authors analyze various approaches to mass consciousness, to types and principles of psychological impact, including information-psychological impact on individuals and masses of people, to methods and forms of influencing people’s consciousness through mass media.The authors focus on such forms of latent compulsion as psychological manipulation, disinformation, aggressive propaganda, lobbying, blackmail, anticrisis management used in modern information psychological warfare.The article describes such methods of manipulation, as information overload, incomplete information, falsehood, half-truth, delay, counterstrike.The authors maintain that modern mass media use both individual manipulation tactics and special manipulation techniques, such as disinformation, lobbying, propaganda, blackmail, provocation, etc. The article defines the above-mentioned techniques and explains their essence.It focuses on the notion of information and psychological security and describes its types.The authors conclude that since factors and criteria pertaining to information and psychological impact are not clearly defined and since there is no classification of threats of information and psychological security violation,the issue of information and psychological security is highly relevant although still underinvestigated.

FULLY-DISCRETE FINITE ELEMENT APPROXIMATION FOR A FAMILY OF DEGENERATE PARABOLIC PROBLEMS
Authors: Acevedo Ramiro , Gómez Christian , López-Rodríguez Bibiana
Published: February 2022

The aim of this work is to show an abstract framework to analyze the numerical approximation by using a finite element method in space and a BackwardEuler scheme in time of a family of degenerate parabolic problems. We deduce sufficient conditions to ensure that the fully-discrete problem has a unique solution and to prove quasi-optimal error estimates for the approximation. Finally, we show a degenerate parabolic problem which arises from electromagnetic applications and deduce its well-posedness and convergence by using the developed abstract theory, including numerical tests to illustrate the performance of the method and confirm the theoretical results.
Efficiently Imaging Accreting Protoplanets from Space: Reference Star Differential Imaging of the PDS 70 Planetary System Using the HST/WFC3 Archival PSF Library
Authors: Sanghi Aniket , Zhou Yifan , Bowler Brendan P.
Published: February 2022

Accreting protoplanets provide key insights into how planets assemble from their natal protoplanetary disks. Recently, Zhou et al. (2021) used angular differential imaging (ADI) with Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field Camera 3 (HST/WFC3) to recover the young accreting planet PDS 70 b in F656N (Hα) at a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 7.9. In this paper, we demonstrate a promising approach to efficiently imaging accreting planets by applying reference star differential imaging (RDI) to the same data set. We compile a reference library from the database of WFC3 point-spread functions (PSFs) provided by the Space Telescope Science Institute and develop a set of morphology-significance criteria for preselection of reference frames to improve RDI subtraction. RDI with this PSF library results in a detection of PDS 70 b at an S/N of 5.3. Astrometry and photometry of PDS 70 b are calibrated using a forward-modeling method and injection-recovery tests, resulting in a separation of 186 ± 13 mas, a position angle of 142° ± 5°, and a Hα flux of (1.7 ± 0.3) × 10−15 erg s−1 cm−2. The lower detection significance with RDI can be attributed to the ∼100 times lower peak-to-background ratios of the reference PSFs compared to the ADI PSFs. Building a high-quality reference library with WFC3 will provide unique opportunities to study accretion variability on short timescales not limited by roll angle scheduling constraints and efficiently search for actively accreting protoplanets in Hα around targets inaccessible to ground-based adaptive optics systems, such as faint transition disk hosts.
