Authors: Juliantie Fhebby Tri , Millenia Grace , Limbong Mei Citra , Pusfitasari Memik Dian
Published: November 2022

Botol plastik sekali pakai menduduki urutan kedua dari tipe plastik di dunia termasuk di Indonesia sebagai plastik yang paling banyak digunakan. Hal ini menghadirkan tantangan yang besar dalam hal pengolahan limbahnya. Di sisi lain, karbon aktif merupakan salah satu material yang dapat digunakan sebagai material elektroda dari superkapasitor yang merupakan salah satu media penyimpanan energi listrik yang tersusun atas elektroda dan elektrolit. Penelitian ini digagas untuk mengembangkan karbon aktif yang dihasilkan dari limbah botol plastik sekali pakai yang selanjutnya diaplikasikan sebagai elektroda superkapasitor. Terdapat 2 tahap proses yaitu karbonisasi pada suhu 500°C, 600°C, dan 700°C dan aktivasi. Adapun aktivasi dilakukan dalam 2 tahap secara kimia (menggunakan ZnCl2) dan fisika. Selain itu, penelitian ini menggunakan PVA-K2CO3 dalam bentuk gel sebagai elektrolit superkapasitor. Berdasarkan karakterisasi, material yang dihasilkan merupakan 100% karbon dan telah berhasil teraktivasi. Karbon aktif dari PET dihasilkan merupakan karbon aktif tipe mikropori dengan ukuran volume rata-rata karbon aktif dengan trend kenaikan seiring dengan kenaikan suhu karbonisasi yang digunakan berturut-turut sebesar 0,0362643 cm3/g, 0,0416015 cm3/g dan 0,0450067 cm3/g. Karbon aktif yang dihasilkan telah berhasil diimplementasikan sebagai elektroda pada Electric Double Layer Capasitors (EDLCs) dimana kenaikan suhu karbonisasi yang digunakan berdampak pada turunnya jumlah tegangan yang dapat disimpan oleh EDLCs dengan hasil berturut-turut sebesar 1,227 V, 1,197 V, 1,116 V dengan rentang waktu pengisian daya selama 1 jam.

The City of Polonne in the Early Modern Period: Socio-Economic and Demographic Aspects
Authors: Voronchuk Iryna
Published: November 2022

Despite the fact that in recent times the studies in urbanization processes in Ukrainian lands have undergone great advancements, the history of Ukrainian cities especially in the early modern period has not yet been sufficiently delved into. Therefore, studies in regional and local history remain topical for the Ukrainian historiography. The article looks at the history of the city of Polonne in the early modern period and is based on the Inventory of the division of the estates of Prince Oleksandr Ostrogski among his heirs in 1620. This study sheds light on how the city, which was known since the Old Rus times, was incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and later into the domain of the Ostrozki princely family. On the basis of the Inventory’s description, the spatial organization of the city, its internal arrangement, the system and special features of the buildings were studied. Such socio-topographical parts of the city as Zamok, Peredhoroddia, Stare Polonne, Nove Polonne, Luka and Zagroddia were identified. The article analyses the city socio-demographic situation, in particular, it gives numbers of settled households and within them the numbers of family structures and separate families. The ethnic composition, religious confessions of the city and its self-government on the basis of the Magdeburg law are described as well. With regard to the city’s economic life, it was found out that there had been at least 196 craftsmen and tradesmen in 46 fields. The duties of the citizens were also identified as well as their involvement in agriculture. The article proves that at the beginning of the 17th century the city was an important socio-cultural organism with a well-developed guild organization of crafts and a system of town self-government based on the Magdeburg law. The role of the owners of the city of Polonne – the princes of the House of Ostrogski – in its development in the early modern times is emphasized.
Researcher of Interdisciplinity and Scientific Synthesis of Ukrainian Studies (To the 85th Anniversary of Yaroslav Kalakura)

Published: November 2022

The article analyzes the life path and creative works of the famous Ukrainian studies scholar, historiographer, source researcher, archivist, doctor of historical sciences, professor, academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Higher School of Ukraine, Yaroslav Kalakura, who celebrates his eighty-fifth birthday this year. The contribution of the scientist to various directions of Ukrainian studies is highlighted, in particular, in the development of theoretical and methodological foundations as well as conceptual and terminological tools of Ukrainian studies, problems of historical source studies, special historical disciplines, archival studies and archival management, in the creation of a number of educational textbooks and manuals.It is shown that Ya. Kalakura was one of those who at the dawn of the restoration of Ukrainian independence in the 90s of the 20th century understood the importance for our Motherland of Ukrainian studies – an integrative system of scientific knowledge about Ukraine, Ukrainians and world Ukrainians in space and time. The level of fruitful cooperation of Ya. Kalakura with the Research Institute of Ukrainian Studies was clarified, the works of the scientist on the key problems of history, theory and methodology of Ukrainian studies, his interdisciplinary connection with historical science and other fields of knowledge were analyzed. The conceptual views of Ya. Kalakura in a number of topical works on the civilizational, sociocultural and anthropological history of Ukraine created with his participation are singled out. The role of the scientist in countering anti-Ukrainian forces, primarily the Russian Federation, denying the identity of the Ukrainian people as a state-political and ethno-cultural reality, attempts to enlist the arguments of history to legitimize and justify the occupation and genocidal war against Ukraine, with the help of weapons to return it to the so-called "great historical Russia" and "Russian world" is revealed.
On the Question of the Establishment and Functioning of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church Structures in Crimea in 1991—2022
Authors: Bozhuk Anton , Ivanets Andrii
Published: November 2022

The study is devoted to the analysis of the processes of formation and development, as well as the current state of the structures of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC) on the territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol in the period from 1991 (restoration of Ukraine's independence) to 2022. The UGCC is currently one of the three largest Christian religious organizations in Ukraine. Despite the relatively small number on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula, its parishes in the region play a unique role in the preservation of Ukrainian identity, starting from the end of the 20th century; therefore, the development of religious structures is an important aspect of the consolidation of the community of ethnic Ukrainians in Crimea, which is the second largest ethnic community in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol. The first congregation of the UGCC on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula was registered in August 1991 as part of the Kyiv-Vyshgorod Exarchate. The formation and development of the structures of the UGCC in Crimea, even under the conditions of Ukraine's independence, took place in circumstances due to organizational difficulties from authorities and public associations opposed to the activities of the UGCC. Accordingly, the main problems of the parishes were the failure to provide land plots for the construction of churches, the lack of religious buildings, and artificial obstacles to their structure. After the events of the so-called "Crimean Spring" in 2014, Ukrainians in Crimea became a discriminated ethnic community under threat of assimilation. Accordingly, the situation of the Crimean Exarchate of the UGCC changed for the worse: almost all priests and part of the parishioners were forced to leave Crimea due to pressure on the Ukrainian community of the peninsula. The parishes of the region underwent forced "re-registration" as an ‘exarchate of the Catholic Church of the Byzantine rite’, which is directly subject to the Holy See. Still, these structures continue to be under pressure in the absence of their own information resources. In addition, the religious communities of the UGCC in Crimea have the problem of a catastrophic lack of clergy and the subsequent outflow of young and middle-aged parishioners, which can cause their stagnation and a slow decline to the point of disappearance. Analytical intelligence and scientific articles devoted to the situation of the Greek-Catholic communities of Crimea are practically absent.

Published: November 2022

The basis of the article is the authors’ field materials recorded in 2017 from the words of the residents of the village Stovpiahy (Pereiaslav region). The main topics of the study are Ukrainian women's folk clothing and Ukrainian women's folk jewelry.This material presents facts that were not reflected in the official documents, but they are important as materials of personal origin. They reflect factual material saturated with observations and thoughts of the respondents about described events, details of people's lives and their moods. In addition, these field ethnographic records contain invaluable information about peasant life, customs, rites, calendar rituals, information about the native village from the point of view of children's and youth's observations. All recorded information is divided into separate sections.The study of the cultural phenomena specifics of both past and present generations of Ukrainians is based on the live connection between the recorder and the interviewer. During this reconnaissance methods of search, survey, generalization, and observation were used. The survey method is one of the main methods of collecting certain information about individual structural components of the traditional domestic culture of Ukrainians, their functioning as a certain system, application to persons having direct experience or knowledge of a subject or events.These ethnographic materials can be used for a thorough study of our own land, our own historical region, one's state, and further research of various areas of the material and spiritual culture of Ukrainians.
Relationship between the Kartvelian Roots *γwn- ‘wine’ and *γun - ‘creep, curve, twist’ Rusudan Asatiani, Marine Ivanishvili & Ether Soselia
Authors: Asatiani Rusudan , Ivanishvili Marine , Soselia Ether
Published: November 2022

Thomas Gamkrelidze &Viacheslav Ivanov’s fundamental work, based on lexical borrowings and structural-typological similarities of the Indo-European, Kartvelian, and Semitic Proto-Languages, confirms that the Georgians (Kartvelian tribes) together with the representatives of ancient civilizations (Indo-Europeans and Semites) historically belong to the same chronological stage. In this respect, the lexical units denoting ‘wine’ in the above-mentioned languages, being the subject of much research, seem very notable. The views on the Kartvelian origin of the respective stems are as old as that of considering the Kartvelian form as an Indo-European borrowing. Various viewpoints exist because the reasonable etymology of the stem has not been established based on Kartvelian data. The paper examines the Common-Kartvelian stem *γvin- ‘wine’, reconstructed by the comparison of Georgian, Megrelian, Laz, and Svan (resp. Kartvelian languages) linguistic data. Taking into account that the root represents a regular form defined by the rules of Kartvelian ablaut alternations, it is possible to regard this form as a Kartvelian stem derived from the verb *γun- denoting ‘creep, curve, twist’, and not as an Indo-European borrowing, as it used to be accepted. Thus, another linguistic-typological parallel between Kartvelian and Indo-European languages has been revealed at the lexical level. Keywords: Kartvelian languages, Indo-European languages, Semitic languages, Comparative-Historical linguistics, Kartvelian ablaut patterns, the lexeme wine

Published: November 2022

Objective: This narrative review is presenting the impact of exercise on pregnant women and fetus and provides current recommendations for exercise in pregnancy. Mechanism: Exercise during pregnancy has a numerous effects on both pregnant woman and her fetus. When recommending exercise during pregnancy, it is necessary to keep in mind the physiological responses of the body’s systems during exercise, changes occuring in pregnancy and the influence of this changes on pregnant woman’s body as well as on the fetus and fetal responses to exercise during pregnancy. The type, intensity, duration, and frequency of exercise should be adjusted to the level of physical activity of pregnant women and period of pregnancy in order to achieve clinically significant health benefits. Findings in Brief: Exercise in pregnancy is beneficial for both the mother and her fetus and contributes to the prevention of pregnancy-related disorders. It is recommend to exercise 30 minutes daily five days a week with a tendency to increase the exercise each day in order to accumulate 150 to 300 minutes of exercise per week with moderate intensity. Conclusions: Regular exercise leads to specific adaptation processes of the body systems improving the physical and mental health of pregnant women with positive effect on her fetus.

Background: Infections, major surgeries, and hyperinflammatory syndromes are known to trigger Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS). Discrimination between infectious and noninfectious inflammation often poses a challenge in chronically ill patients with multiple comorbidities. These patients are routinely treated with a variety of anti-infective medications before a pathogen is identified. With the goal of improving pathogen detection rates and interventions, we evaluated Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) as a highly sensitive and fast means of detecting free microbial DNA in a small amount of serum samples from children with ongoing SIRS. Methods: We describe seven complex pediatric patients of SIRS or prolonged fever (>38.5 °C) >72 hours in which serum samples analyzed by NGS had a major impact on therapy. One patient was analyzed twice. Results: In eight NGS there were six positive results (two bacterial, three viral, one fungal) which were subsequently confirmed by microbiological culture or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in five of the six NGS. In five of the eight performed NGS, results led to a change of therapy: antibiotic therapy was discontinued in two, escalated in one, an initiated in another; in one an antiviral was administered. Conclusions: NGS may become a valuable addition to infectious disease diagnostics in cases of pediatric SIRS. However, NGS has not yet been validated as a diagnostic method in pediatric as a diagnostic method in pediatric patients and results should therefore be interpreted with caution. Multi-center NGS evaluation studies are currently being planned.

This project makes sure that biomedical research that examines drug-target interactions requires a major time, financial, and material investment. In order to save time, money, and better meet the needs of the present generation, machine learning techniques have been applied to the prediction of drug-target interactions. Due to the abundance of drug and target data that is readily available in existing databases, the advancement and innovation of computer technologies, and the inherent properties of various types of machine learning, machine learning techniques have emerged as the unofficial method for conducting drug-target interaction prediction research.In this paper, the features of each method are compared, along with the details of the machine learning applications in drug-target interaction prediction, and the issues that still need to be resolved and further explored for future research are covered.
DrugDock Viral Module: Drug Repurposing via Comparing Target Drug Molecules with Covid-19 Antigens.

Published: November 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic rapidly swept the world and to find an effective treatment was of the utmost importance, given the rate of infection and the subsequent number of deaths. Classical drug discovery pathways required multiple years to result in a usable product, which is why bioinformatic techniques such as molecular docking were given preference. To ensure a minimum number of lives were lost, drugs that existed prior to Covid were screened to see which ones could be used as treatment. Screening through these drugs individually through pre-existing docking methods would be a tedious process. Ensuring each drug to be screened has a chemical structure that would effectively bind to the SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins would extend the drug repurposing process by precious years. To circumvent this, we have created the python script below, that utilizes the SMILES structures of drugs, as well as docking techniques to provide ease of screening for target drug molecules. Below, the python script clip.py is elucidated, that is able to accept input in the form of a drug name, or a structured data file; which it then compares to the preprogrammed viral antigens. The output is then a table of the docking affinities of the drug or sdfs file with each antigen as well as the ligands that have the most affinity.

A new automated method for improving georeferencing of nighttime ECOSTRESS thermal imagery
Authors: Soszynska Agnieszka , van der Werff Harald , Hieronymus Jan , Hecker Christoph
Published: November 2022

Georeferencing accuracy plays a crucial role in providing high-quality ready-to-use remote sensing data.Georeferencing of satellite imagery is typically based on position and pointing direction of a sensor, which are provided by star trackers and GPS.As the Ecosystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station (ECOSTRESS) is not equipped with star trackers, georeferencing of its imagery is based on the inaccurate knowledge about the location of its platform (the International Space Station) and later adjusted by image matching to the Landsat Orthobase.Although the georeferencing accuracy for daytime imagery is relatively high, we have observed that the nighttime imagery in Olkaria (Kenya), exhibits errors of 13.7 pixels on average, but in extreme cases even 62 pixels.Image based correction of georeferencing in nighttime thermal satellite imagery is challenging, due to complexity of thermal radiation patterns in diurnal cycle and coarse resolution of thermal sensors in comparison to sensors imaging in the visual spectral range.Our paper introduces a novel approach for improved georeferencing of nighttime thermal imagery.We use object based matching of water bodies to an up-to-date landcover reference with high geolocation accuracy.Dynamically changing land cover often renders (static) land cover data bases unusable as a reliable reference basemap. We overcome this issue by automatically creating an up-to-date landcover reference to match acquisition time of the to-be-corrected target image.Additionally, we use object based matching to account for lower spatial resolution of thermal sensors, as well as potential sharpness issues.In our method, edges of water bodies serve as matching objects, as they exhibit a relatively high contrast to adjacent areas.Results show that our method improves the existing georeferencing of ECOSTRESS images by 10.6 pixels on average, and an average accuracy of $\pm$3.1 pixels is achieved.The accuracy of our method depends on accurate cloud masks, because cloud edges can be mismatched as water-body edges and included in fitting of transformation parameters.Since the proposed method bases on physical properties of land cover, it can be used with data from other sensors as well.
Computational Phenotyping of decision-making over voice interfaces
Authors: Zhang lili , Mukherjee Ruben , Wadhai Piyush , Muehlhausen Willie , Ward Tomas
Published: November 2022

Researchonhumanreinforcementlearninganddecision-making behaviour has traditionally used visual-based symbols and graphics in the experimental paradigms. Such research leads to improved under- standing of human decision-making and has applications in fundamental research in cognitive neuroscience. In clinical domains, the approach holds out the possibility for the development of computationally-derived biomarkers suitable for use in psychiatry. Scaling this experimental approach through pervasive computing can help create larger datasets which will be necessary for normative studies. This will require the expansionof these experimental approaches beyond conventional visual representations. People receive information and interact with their environments through various senses. In particular, our sense of hearing in conjunction with speech represents a ubiquitous modality for learning and for updating our knowledge of the world. Consequently, it represents an important path for the investigation of human decision-making which is now experimentally accessible via rapid advances in voice-enabled intelligent personal assistants (IPAs). Examples include Amazon’s Alexa technology and Google’s Voice Assistant. However, to date, no studies have demonstrated the feasibility of delivering such experimental paradigms over such voice technologies. Consequently in this study, we compared the performance of the same group of participants on the traditional visual-based and for the first time, a conversational voice-based, two-armed bandit task. Reinforcement learning models were fitted to the data to represent the characteristics of the underlying cognitive mechanisms in the task. Both model-independent behavioural measures and model-derived parameters were compared. The results suggest that participants demonstrated higher shifting rates in the voice-based version of the task. The computational modelling analysis revealed that participants adopted similar learning rates under the two versions of the interfaces, but more decision noise was introduced in the voice-based task as reflected by the decreased value of the inverse temperature pa- parameter. We suggest that the elevated shifting rate is derived from the increased noise in the voice interface instead of a change in the learning strategy of the participants. Higher intensity of the control adjustments (click touch versus speak) might be one of the sources of noise, thus it is important to think further regarding the design of the voice interface if we wish to apply voice-enabled IPAs to measure human decision-making in their daily environments in the future.
Value certainty and choice confidence are multidimensional constructs that guide decision-making
Authors: Lee Douglas G. , Hare Todd
Published: November 2022

The degree of certainty that decision-makers have about their evaluations of available choice alternatives and their confidence about selecting the subjectively best alternative are important factors that affect current and future value-based choices. Assessments of the alternatives in a given choice set are rarely unidimensional; their values are usually derived from a combination of multiple distinct attributes. For example, the taste, texture, quantity, and nutritional content of a snack food may all be considered when determining whether to consume it. Here, we examined how certainty about the levels of individual attributes of an option relates to certainty about the overall value of that option as a whole and/or to confidence in having chosen the subjectively best available option. We found that certainty and confidence are derived from unequally-weighted combinations of attribute certainties rather than simple, equal combinations of all sources of uncertainty. Attributes that matter more in determining choice outcomes are also weighted more in metacognitive evaluations of certainty or confidence. Moreover, we found that the process of deciding between two alternatives leads to refinements in both attribute estimations and the degree of certainty in those estimates. Attributes that are more important in determining choice outcomes are refined more during the decision process in terms of both estimates and certainty. Although certainty and confidence are typically treated as unidimensional, our results indicate that they, like value estimates, are subjective, multidimensional constructs.
Belief in Conspiracy Theories is associated with decreased adaptive learning to contingency volatility
Authors: Zhang lili , Ward Tomas , Vashisht Himanshu , Boyle Daniel O
Published: November 2022

The past two years have witnessed a significant increase in the endorsement of conspiracy theories especially due to the emerging uncertainty caused by the pandemic. The prevalence of conspiracy beliefs could have negative social, health, and civic outcomes, thus it is important to understand the formalization and maintenance mechanism of conspiracy beliefs. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the deficit in learning and recognizing the probabilistic patterns of the environment while making decisions in an uncertain and unstable environment and the general tendency to engage with conspiracy theories. The Generic Conspiracist’s Belief Scale (GCBS) is used to estimate conspiracy theory beliefs and a web-based aversive learning task consisting of two blocks, i.e. stable and volatile, is designed to objectively assess individuals' ability to adapt their learning to changes in environmental volatility. Participants were recruited on social media and 69 participated in the experiment, 39 of which completed the whole experiment online. Our results suggest conspiracy belief is correlated with a deficit in the perception of the higher-order statistics about the causal structure of an aversive environment to guide decision-making (r(37) = -0.48, P = 0.002). People with high conspiracy beliefs are less able to update their learning rates to adapt to the changes in environmental volatility.
Temperature variability and long-run economic development
Authors: Linsenmeier Manuel
Published: November 2022

This study examines the effects of temperature variability on long-run economic development, which have not been fully considered in assessments of the costs of future climate change. To identify causal effects, a novel research design is employed, based on spatial first-differences. Economic activity is proxied by satellite data on nightlights. Drawing on climate science, the study distinguishes between day-to-day, seasonal, and interannual variability. The results indicate that day-to-day temperature variability has a statistically significant, negative effect on economic activity, while seasonal variability has a smaller but also negative effect. The effect of interannual variability is positive at low temperatures, but negative at high temperatures. The results also suggest that daily temperature levels have a non-linear effect on economic activity with an optimal temperature around 15 degrees Celsius, but most of the effects of variability seem to be due to larger uncertainty about future temperature realisations. The empirical effects can be found in both urban and rural areas, and they cannot be explained by the distribution of agriculture. The results indicate that temperature variability might add to the costs of anthropogenic climate change especially in relatively warm and currently relatively poor regions.
Climbing the Social Ladder: Does Intergenerational Solidarity Matter?
Authors: Zhang Xinmiao , Deguilhem Thibaud
Published: November 2022

Family works as a strong force for the intergenerational persistence of inequality. Thisstudy takes a closer look into families and investigates how the heterogeneity in family tiesmay affect individual social mobility. Using an economic sociology approach, we adoptthe concept of intergenerational solidarity to explicate how family ties vary in nature. Twodimensions of intergenerational solidarity are featured: emotional closeness and strengthof family obligations. Our empirical work is based on the World Value Survey microdatafrom 55 countries. Controlling for the institutional heterogeneity between countries, theestimation results show two robust international regularities. Firstly, the emotional closenessbetween parents and offspring is positively related to both the possibility of upwardoccupational mobility and the extent of moving up. Secondly, the strength of obligationsfelt towards family members is negatively associated with the possibility of moving up.The obligations of caring for parents may possibly influence offspring’s decision makingswhen they face opportunities or life changes that may hinder them from climbing the socialladder.
Design of pH Measuring Equipment for Liquid Waste from Coal Mining Using Arduino Uno
Authors: Safrianti Ery , Feranita  , Nurhalim  , Wahyu Dwi Reza
Published: November 2022

In coal mining, to check the pH content of the water in the liquid waste from coal mining, most of the mining workers use conventional methods, namely by measuring using a digital pH meter or litmus paper periodically. Manual pH reading system makes handling slow. Based on these reasons the researchers designed a tool that can monitor pH values, the working principle of this tool is that the pH electrode is inserted into the sample solution, then the electrode detects the sample solution and changes the electrical signal, where the output will be amplified by an amplifier circuit in the form of an analog voltage, then on Arduino uno analog data is converted to digital data or ADC (Analog To Digital Conversion) after which it is converted again to pH value and displayed on an LCD that has been equipped with I2C. And this tool is also equipped with an RTC (Real Time Clock) so that it can display the time at which pH data is taken in the waste. The results of the calibration of the pH sensor obtained a linear equation, namely, Y = 25.84 - 7.1211X so that the designed tool has an error percentage of the manufacturer's pH meter tool of 1.028 %. By using this tool, the writer concludes that 0.4 grams of camphor (CaO) on the prototype or 480 kg in real conditions with a pool area of 600 m^3 can reduce the output voltage on the pH sensor from 3.20 V to 2.56 V thereby increasing the pH value. from 3.07 to 7.58 in pool 4 or drain pool.

Solar energy is an unlimited amount of renewable energy and can be used as a power plant that can be used to meet the electrical energy needs of an area, especially areas affected by the equator. Utilization of solar energy still cannot be applied optimally in some areas. In this study, the use of solar energy is used as the main source of electricity to be used by a minimarket. The use of this solar energy generator is equipped with a backup generator, namely the PLN generator, the selection is intended so that the utilization of solar energy can be maximized. The use of these two power plants in a hybrid manner requires a device so that the transfer from one generator to another can be done automatically. In this study, the tool used is the automatic transfer switch (ATS). The work parameters carried out by ATS are based on reading the battery voltage value. If the battery voltage is 10.8V – 13.2V, the solar energy generator will work to supply the minimarket load, and if the battery voltage does not reach 10.8V, the PLN generator will work to supply the minimarket load.

Comet fish (Carassius auratus) is a type of freshwater ornamental fish with a high selling value due to its unique body shape and bright colour. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different LED (Light Emitting Diode) light colours on colour brightness, growth, and survival of comet fish. This study applies an experimental approach with an experimental design in the form of a completely randomized design (CRD) and consists of 5 light treatments and 3 replications, namely A (room light), B (white LED), C (blue LED), D (green LED), and E (red LED). The results showed that LED light treatment had a significant effect on the colour quality and feed efficiency, but did not significantly affect the growth and survival of comet fish. The best colour quality was found in treatment E (red LED) with an increase in the TCF (Toca Color Finder) score of 6.22 and colour performance on the back by 80.80%, pectoral fin colour by 64.91%, and tail fin by 71 .18%. The best feed efficiency was obtained in treatment C (blue LED) with a feed efficiency value of 57.48%. The behavioural responses of comet fish did not make any difference between each LED treatment. The water quality of the comet fish rearing media has a temperature value ranging from 25.70 – 29.20 C. The pH value ranges from 7.29 to 8.50. Meanwhile, dissolved oxygen ranges from 8.00 – 12.20 mg/L
