Published: April 2024

Due to the high market dynamics, economic and environmental, constantly growing and changing customer needs, each organization is looking for new solutions related to the technology of goods flow, process optimization, aimed at both improving the quality of products and improving their production processes towards reducing their impact on the natural environment. In this context, Green Human Resources (GHR) may become a key factor in the success of greenlogistics (GL), because the success of the company depends in particular on the actions of employees, their knowledge, skills and their use and awareness. Therefore, the goalof the research was to check how the method of managing green human capital influences changes in the functioning of enterprises in selected areas related to the course and quality of logistics processes (including in terms of GL). As research shows, companies use GHR to promote behaviors among employees that increase the ecological efficiency of the entire company, but their share is still negligible. The study was conducted using an electronic survey questionnaire on a group of 200 enterprises. The conducted research showed the relationship between the importance of individual elements of human capital in enterprise strategies and changes in the functioning of enterprises in selected areas related to the course and quality of logistics processes. The following components had the greatest impact on the studied effects: human capital: knowledge, personal and social skills, interpersonal relations and psychological characteristics of employees.

El aumento de penas y los sujetos de control social en Colombia después de la Constitución de 1991
Authors: Cruz Gutiérrez David Fernando
Published: April 2024

This paper presents three interrelated arguments: (i) the disproportion of criminal punishment in Colombia have its origin in the State fight against subversive groups, specifically against las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia-Ejército del Pueblo, which after 1990 massified kidnapping; (ii)that the endure and stabilization of punishment rise in Colombia criminal law is due to being move to criminal behaviors related to the armed conflict to ordinary criminal behaviors, specifically the violent thief and the sexual predator; and (iii) that the persistence of criminal disproportion is due to the rise of new subjects of social control, particularly the young and poor man, and the sexual predator. To support those arguments, the paper inquire the boundaries of 1980 Colombian criminal code to show how it started to enlarge in the nineteen year through the “estatuto antisecuestro”. Subsequently, it shows how this trend stabilized around the rise of the new subjects of social control that have legitimized the discourse of citizen (in)security.

“Cultural trauma”
Authors: Blucher F. N.,
Published: April 2024

The article examines the concept of “cultural trauma”, which appeared at the beginning of the 21st century as part of the process of searching for identity. The concept is defined as an evaluative metaphor. There are periods in the history of Russia that can be considered from the point of view of using this concept. It is shown how the historical and ideological disputes of the late twentieth century acquired the character of religious contradictions. A hypothesis is put forward as a result of what events the concepts of normal political science vocabulary lost their original meaning and turned into ideological templates.

Published: April 2024

El modelo actual de matriz productiva ha caracterizado la economía del Ecuador al convertirlo  en un país proveedor de materia prima en el mercado internacional y a su vez un ente importador de bienes y servicios, pero los significantes cambios en precios internacionales han desequilibrado la balanza comercial en el país. El tema del cambio de la matriz productiva en Ecuador se desarrolla en el marco de un debate complejo y contradictorio por la diversidad de aristas desde donde se analiza, generando en algunos casos incomprensión del mismo ocasionados por esta diversidad de pensamiento. Partiendo de esta preocupación la autora de este ensayo pretende ofrecer un análisis del tema del cambio de la matriz productiva de Ecuador desde el enfoque de la Economía Política colocando la atención en la teoría del desarrollo considerando su evolución histórica y actual. Se parte de reconocer que la necesidad del cambio en los componentes del desarrollo en Ecuador es el resultado de la mezcla de todo un conjunto de factores internos y externos, los cuales tienen un carácter pluridimensional, al tener un basamento político, económico, histórico, étnico, cultural, y social.

Exploring the Feasibility of the Use of Sphygmomanometer for Assessing Hip Abductor Muscle Strength in Avascular Necrosis Patients – A Pilot Study
Authors: Lanke Pratiksha , Patel Niketa , Kumar G. P.
Published: April 2024

Background Avascular necrosis of the femoral head is a degenerative disorder brought on by a disruption in the blood supply to the subchondral region, which in turn causes the disintegration of cells and eventual destruction of the femoral head. We decided to design a pilot study to see if a sphygmomanometer was an accurate technique to test the muscular strength of the hip abductors considering no research had measured the strength of the abductor muscles beforehand or following surgery.  Methodology The patients were selected based on the conditions for inclusion, and a sphygmomanometer was utilised for assessing each patient's hip abductor muscle strength on three separate occasions. Three times the readings were carried out at these intervals to measure the strength of the abductor muscles in each lower limb. The average value of each of these instances was used to get the final measurement. Subsequently, changes in the mercury's value were noted.  Results According to the findings, the results stated that the feasibility of a sphygmomanometer to assess hip abductors' muscle strength in individuals with femoral head avascular necrosis was formulated.  Conclusion The conclusion of this study demonstrates that the sphygmomanometer is a reliable tool for evaluating hip abductor muscle strength among people with femoral head avascular necrosis.
Fashioning Landscapes with Bruno Latour’s Immutable Mobiles and Epistemological Matrix or: How We Pass on Knowledge
Authors: Broglio Ron
Published: April 2024

Landscape poetry and art is informed by place and place is understood at least in part by quantitative data about the place. This essay delineates Bruno Latour’s method of understanding how data is gathered in the field and translated into visual and textual images of place (which he calls immutable mobiles). Textual representations reduce the material specificity of place, but in return representations facilitate understanding of a place by creating greater compatibility, standardization, calculation, and circulation of knowledge. Latour explains how instruments create representations and how the instruments and texts are part of a broader implicate epistemological matrix. This matrix determines in advance how we think about, measure, see, and represent the world around us. The essay then develops how landscape poetry and art participate in the broader cultural epistemological matrix.
Modeling of Condensations in Coronal Loops Produced by Impulsive Heating with Variable Frequencies and Locations
Authors: Kucera Therese A. , Klimchuk James A. , Luna Manuel
Published: April 2024

We present the results of models of impulsively heated coronal loops using the 1D hydrodynamic Adaptively Refined Godunov Solver code. The impulsive heating events (which we refer to as nanoflares) are modeled by discrete pulses of energy along the loop. We explore the occurrence of cold condensations due to the effective equivalent of thermal nonequilibrium in loops with steady heating, and examine its dependence on nanoflare timing and intensity and also nanoflare location along the loop, including randomized distributions of nanoflares. We find that randomizing the distribution of nanoflares, both in time/intensity and location, diminishes the likelihood of condensation occurring as compared to distributions with regularly occurring nanoflares with the same average properties. The usual criteria that condensation is favored for heating near loop footpoints and with high cadences are more strict for randomized (as opposed to regular) nanoflare distributions, and for randomized distributions the condensations stay in the loop for a shorter amount of time. That said, condensation can sometimes occur in cases where the average values of parameters (frequency or location) are beyond the critical limits above which condensation does not occur for corresponding steady, non-randomized values of those parameters. These properties of condensation occurring due to randomized heating can be used in the future to investigate the diagnostics of coronal heating mechanisms.

The Macquart relation describes the correlation between the dispersion measure (DM) of fast radio bursts (FRBs) and the redshift z of their host galaxies. The scatter of the Macquart relation is sensitive to the distribution of baryons in the intergalactic medium including those ejected from galactic halos through feedback processes. The variance of the distribution in DMs from the cosmic web (DMcosmic) is parameterized by a fluctuation parameter F. In this work, we present a new measurement of F using 78 FRBs of which 21 have been localized to host galaxies. Our analysis simultaneously fits for the Hubble constant H
0 and the DM distribution due to the FRB host galaxy. We find that the fluctuation parameter is degenerate with these parameters, most notably H
0, and use a uniform prior on H
0 to measure

. Using a synthetic sample of 100 localized FRBs, the constraint on the fluctuation parameter is improved by a factor of ∼2. Comparing our F measurement to simulated predictions from cosmological simulation (IllustrisTNG), we find agreement between redshifts 0.4 < z and z < 2.0. However, at z < 0.4, the simulations underpredict F, which we attribute to the rapidly changing extragalactic DM excess distribution at low redshift.

There exist very few mid-infrared (IR) observations of supernovae (SNe) in general. Therefore, SN 1987A, the closest visible SN in 400 yr, gives us the opportunity to explore the mid-IR properties of SNe, the dust in their ejecta, and the surrounding medium and to witness the birth of an SN remnant (SNR). The James Webb Space Telescope, with its high spatial resolution and extreme sensitivity, gives a new view on these issues. We report on the first imaging observations obtained with the Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI). We build temperature maps and discuss the morphology of the nascent SNR. Our results show that the temperatures in the equatorial ring (ER) are quite nonuniform. This could be due to dust destruction in some parts of the ring, as had been assumed in some previous works. We show that the IR emission extends beyond the ER, illustrating the fact that the shock wave has now passed through this ring to affect the circumstellar medium on a larger scale. Finally, while submillimeter Atacama Large Millimeter Array observations have hinted at the location of the compact remnant of SN 1987A, we note that our MIRI data have found no such evidence.
A Multiwavelength Light-curve Model of the Classical Nova V339 Del: A Mechanism for the Coexistence of Dust Dip and Supersoft X-Rays
Authors: Hachisu Izumi , Kato Mariko , Matsumoto Katsura
Published: April 2024

The classical nova V339 Del 2013 is characterized by a 1.5 mag dip of the V light curve owing to a dust shell formation, with which soft X-ray emissions coexist. We present a Strömgren y-band light curve, which represents continuum emission, not influenced by strong [O iii] emission lines. The y light curve monotonically decreases in marked contrast to the V light curve that shows a 1.5 mag dip. We propose a multiwavelength light-curve model that reproduces the y and V light curves as well as the gamma-ray and X-ray light curves. In our model, a strong shock arises far outside the photosphere after optical maximum, because later ejected matter collides with earlier ejected gas. Our shocked shell model explains optical emission lines, Hα, hard X-ray, and gamma-ray fluxes. A dust shell forms behind the shock that suppresses [O iii]. This low flux of [O iii] shapes a 1.5 mag drop in the V light curve. Then, the V flux recovers with an increasing contribution from [O iii] lines, while the y flux does not. However, the optical depth of the dust shell is too small to absorb the photospheric (X-ray) emission of the white dwarf. This is the reason that a dust shell and soft X-ray radiation coexist. We determined the white dwarf mass to be M
WD = 1.25 ± 0.05 M

Correlations between Ca ii H and K Emission and the Gaia M Dwarf Gap
Authors: Boudreaux Emily M. , Garcia Soto Aylin , Chaboyer Brian C.
Published: April 2024

The Gaia M dwarf gap, also known as the Jao Gap, is a novel feature discovered in the Gaia Data Release 2 G versus BP-RP color–magnitude diagram. This gap represents a 17% decrease in stellar density in a thin magnitude band around the convective transition mass (∼0.35 M
⊙) on the main sequence. Previous work has demonstrated a paucity of Hα emission coincident with the G magnitude of the Jao Gap in the solar neighborhood. The exact mechanism that results in this paucity is as of yet unknown; however, the authors of the originating paper suggest that it may be the result of complex variations to a star’s magnetic topology driven by the Jao Gap’s characteristic formation and breakdown of stars’ radiative transition zones. We present a follow-up investigating another widely used magnetic activity metric, Calcium ii H and K emission. Ca ii H and K activity appears to share a similar anomalous behavior as Hα does near the Jao Gap magnitude. We observe an increase in star-to-star variation of magnetic activity near the Jao Gap. We present a toy model of a star’s magnetic field evolution, which demonstrates that this increase may be due to stochastic disruptions to the magnetic field originating from the periodic-mixing events characteristic of the convective kissing instabilities that drive the formation of the Jao Gap.
O uso de mapas conceituais como instrumento avaliativo em uma sequência didática de buracos negros
Authors: Paulo Neto Jonas Guimarães , Macedo Diego Ximenes
Published: April 2024

Esta pesquisa, baseada na Teoria da Aprendizagem Significativa Ausubel, empregou mapas conceituais (MC) como ferramenta de avaliação em uma Sequência Didática sobre Buracos Negros. Com abordagem qualitativa, foi realizada em uma escola de tempo integral na cidade de Sobral, Ceará, contando com a participação de 63 estudantes do 2° ano do Ensino Médio, com o objetivo de analisar qualitativamente os MC como instrumento avaliativo da aprendizagem. A coleta de dados ocorreu através da construção dos mapas pelos alunos e da aplicação de um questionário qualitativo acerca do uso desse recurso. Cada discente construiu dois mapas: um MC na primeira aula contendo seus conhecimentos prévios sobre Buracos Negros e, após as atividades de ensino e aprendizagem da Sequência Didática em que foi abordado esse assunto, outro mapa contendo os novos conhecimentos adquiridos. Utilizando-se de critérios bem estabelecidos na Metodologia, os dois MC de cada aluno foram comparados e a percepção docente sobre a evolução dos estudantes foi “ótimo” para 39,34%, “bom” para 30,33% e “regular” para 30,33%, com valor médio atribuído 4 (“bom”). Além disso, aproximadamente 80% do alunado julgaram o mapa conceitual como “interessante e útil para a aprendizagem”, apontando sua aplicabilidade em outros assuntos de Física ou de outra disciplina. Os resultados encontrados apontam no sentido da importância e necessidade da diversificação dos métodos e instrumentos de avaliação. Nesse contexto, os MC se apresentam com potencial para utilização em sala de aula, possibilitando outras formas de expressão do conhecimento e a ampliação das estratégias de avaliação da aprendizagem.
UHPLC-HRMS-based profiling and simultaneous quantification of the hydrophilic phenolic compounds from the aerial parts of Hypericum aucheri Jaub. & Spach (Hypericaceae)
Authors: Marinov Teodor , Kokanova-Nedialkova Zlatina , Nedialkov Paraskev
Published: April 2024

A validated UHPLC-HRMS method was developed to identify and quantify polar phenolic metabolites in the EtOH extract from H. aucheri Jaub. & Spach’s aerial parts. The external standards, chlorogenic acid, mangiferin, and hyperoside were selected in this analysis. Forty-four compounds, encompassing hydroxybenzoic and hydroxycinnamic acids derivatives, benzophenones, catechins, xanthones, flavonols, biflavones, and chromones were detected and quantified in the aerial parts of the titled plant. Pentahydroxyxanthone-C-glycoside 15, maclurin-O-(benzoyl)-hexoside 37, norathyriol-O-(benzoyl)-hexosides 38 and 42 were suggested to be new natural compounds, while maclurin-O-hexoside 2 was reported for the first time for Hypericum genus. Additionally, more than 22 secondary metabolites, including benzophenones, hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives, catechins, and a chromone, were identified for the first time in H. aucheri. The amounts of the detected metabolites were calculated relative to external standards. The dominant polar phenolic constituents were chlorogenic acid (11.55 mg/g D.W.) and mangiferin (9.13 mg/g D.W.).
Maurice Lagrange, commissaire du gouvernement au Conseil d’État (1929-1940 et 1942-1945)
Authors: Melleray Fabrice
Published: April 2024

Maurice Lagrange a occupé, pendant environ 15 ans, les fonctions de commissaire du gouvernement près les formations juridictionnelles du Conseil d’État. Il a donc présenté « en toute indépendance » son appréciation et son opinion sur les affaires contentieuses soumises à la haute juridiction. Certaines de ses conclusions ont été publiées dans les principales revues juridiques de l’époque, les plus célèbres étant probablement celles sur l’affaire Minaire (1937, situation des fonctionnaires et interdiction du droit de grève) et celles sur l’affaire Bouguen (1943, nature juridique des ordres professionnels). Ces textes, comme celles sur l’affaire Bujadoux (1937, contrôle de l’interdiction d’une réunion) dessinent les contours des options politiques de l’auteur, en phase avec des positions alors largement développées dans la haute fonction publique sur la place de l’État et de ses agents. Il y défend un État fort, dont les agents doivent être disciplinés. Il réfléchit aux transformations des modalités de l’intervention publique en matière d’organisation des professions et plus largement d’interventionnisme économique. Il promeut aussi l’exercice d’un contrôle exigeant de l’atteinte aux libertés publiques par les mesures de police administrative.
Lagrange, de l’épuration à la Cour de justice de la CECA
Authors: Fritz Vera
Published: April 2024

Étant donné que la commission d’épuration instituée pour le Conseil d’État n’a prononcé à son encontre qu’un blâme, Maurice Lagrange a poursuivi sa carrière sans encombre après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Les archives inédites du processus d’épuration lèvent enfin le voile sur la question de savoir pourquoi l’« homme fort de la Révolution nationale administrative » n’a pas été sanctionné davantage, lui permettant ainsi de transiter, en quelques années, du secrétariat général de la vice-présidence du Conseil du gouvernement de Vichy à la première Communauté européenne. La trajectoire d’après-guerre de Maurice Lagrange présente un certain nombre de points communs avec les parcours d’autres membres de la première Cour européenne de justice. Son analyse détaillée et comparée permet ainsi de mener une réflexion plus générale sur les continuités qui ont marqué les débuts de la construction européenne.

De 2019 à 2021, la Commission indépendante sur les abus sexuels dans l’Église (Ciase), présidée par Jean-Marc Sauvé, a recueilli la parole de nombreuses victimes dont les vies ont été gravement et durablement abîmées par les violences sexuelles qu’elles ont subies. Ses membres sont des experts, médecins, psychiatres, magistrats, avocats, sociologues ou théologiens, pour la plupart, tous des professionnels de l’écoute dans leur domaine. Néanmoins, on ne s’engage pas impunément dans une telle expérience régulière d’écoute de traumatismes, d’exposition même indirecte au malheur des uns et à la malveillance des autres. Deux ans après la remise du rapport, nous avons souhaité interroger des membres volontaires de cette commission – ainsi que Véronique Margron – sur la manière dont ils ont vécu cette expérience.
« Fariboles littéraires » et « façons de penser » du romantisme
Authors: Schnebelen Florence
Published: April 2024

Partant du constat qu’on ne se demande plus  si  le romantisme pense, mais bien plutôt à quoi et comment il pense, cet article cherche à exposer la construction d’une certaine « opinion commune » du romantisme pour interroger les discours de légitimation qui lui sont attachés. Il vise ainsi à montrer comment la critique du xx e  siècle a fait du rapport à la philosophie un élément discriminant dans l’étude des œuvres romantiques, qui a pour conséquence d’établir  une certaine valeur du romantisme .
Ce que l’attente fait aux mouvements sociaux
Authors: Ancelovici Marcos , Emperador Badimon Montserrat
Published: April 2024

Les personnes qui risquent une expulsion immobilière font face à un processus institutionnel et bureaucratique dont elles ne contrôlent pas la durée et qui est vécu comme une attente au dénouement incertain. Cet article analyse ce que font les activistes du mouvement pour le droit au logement en Espagne pour neutraliser les effets potentiellement paralysants de cette attente imposée. Sur la base d’observation participante ainsi que d’entretiens semi-dirigés réalisés à Barcelone entre 2013 et 2022, nous analysons l’articulation entre la temporalité institutionnelle dans laquelle s’inscrit la mobilisation contre les expulsions et la temporalité militante propre à cette mobilisation. Nous soutenons que le travail de micro-mobilisation réalisé à la croisée de ces deux temporalités contribue au développement de la capacité des personnes en situation d’insécurité résidentielle d’agir sur leur propre situation. En étudiant ce que les activistes font durant les moments d’attente, nous élargissons les catégories à travers lesquelles on peut rendre compte de l’action collective.
Pediatric Dermatology for People of Color
Authors: Shahin Muayad M. , Quach Henry T. , Marathe Kalyani S.
Published: April 2024

When evaluating pediatric patients of color, it is essential to consider the unique diagnostic and treatment factors that apply to this population. Certain dermatologic conditions are more common in these patients, including postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, pityriasis alba, progressive macular hypomelanosis, tinea capitis, traction alopecia, keloids, hypertrophic scars, pseudofolliculitis barbae, acne keloidalis nuchae, and hidradenitis suppurativa. Furthermore, conditions such as vitiligo are more noticeable in people of color. This can lead to a significantly diminished quality of life, so these conditions should be quickly recognized and treated. Notably, inflammation can be difficult to recognize on the skin of people of color, which can lead to the underestimation of severity as well as inappropriate treatment. Treatment recommendations can also differ based on lifestyle or cultural norms, such as the use of tinted sunscreens and the consideration of hair care practices. Pediatricians should be aware of these conditions and treatment considerations to best treat pediatric patients of color.
