This study investigates the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices and the development of a green corporate image, particularly in the context of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. Using a quantitative methodology with 219 valid responses, the study employs Smart PLS Structural Equation Modelling to analyze the data. The findings demonstrate a strong positive correlation between CSR practices and the perception of a company as environmentally friendly by consumers. Specific CSR activities like sustainable sourcing and energy efficiency are highlighted for their impact on shaping a green corporate image. The practical implications suggest that integrating CSR initiatives aligned with green values can improve environmental reputations, enhance competitive positioning, and foster consumer trust and loyalty.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MECHANISM AND FINANCIAL DISTRESS LIKELIHOOD: EVIDENCE FROM LISTED CONSUMER GOODS COMPANIES IN NIGERIA
Authors: Binwai Pirdam , I A Mustapha
Published: May 2024

This study examined the effect of corporate governance mechanism on financial distress likelihood of listed consumer goods firms in Nigeria for a period of fifteen years (2008-2022). Published annual reports were used as secondary data from the sampled firms. The population consists of 13 consumer goods firms listed on the Nigerian Exchange as at 31st December 2021 and the sample size was made up of 13 consumer goods firms having the required data. Atman’s Z- score was used to measure FDL. The study adopted multiple regression technique in analyzing the data extracted. The study concluded that board gender diversity has a significant effect on financial likelihood of listed consumer goods firm in Nigeria. However, board independence did not show significant effects on financial distress likelihood of listed consumer goods firms in Nigeria. The study recommended that the presence of independent directors on the board should be encouraged as they will enhance monitoring mechanism and reduce the propensity to likelihood of financial distress. Additionally, that the inclusion of female directors should be maintained by the listed consumer goods firm in Nigeria in order to mitigate the likelihood of financial distress
Poetry and Punishment: The Unacknowledged Legislators of Botany Bay
Authors: Goethals Helen
Published: May 2024

This paper explores the relationship between the poetic and the decidedly unpoetic forms of justice at large in the Australian convict colonies of New South Wales and Van Diemen’s Land in the first half of the nineteenth century. The argument is divided into three parts. The first draws on Robert Hughes’s
The Fatal Shore
(1986) to give the general context of the extreme violence of the penal system, and to suggest that the enduring success of Hughes’s account is due to its consistent use of poems and ballads as documentary sources. The second part shows how Hughes’s sweeping historical view is buttressed by the particular case of the Irish convict-poet Frank MacNamara (1811–1863). The third part develops a few of the reasons why we should look to the actual practice of poetry, rather than to theories of punishment, for the ‘social sympathies’ (Shelley, 2016, p. 653) needed to found a colony.
On the Connection between the Repeated X-Ray Quasiperiodic Oscillation and Warm Absorber in the Active Galaxy RE J1034+396

We conduct an in-depth spectral analysis of ∼1 Ms XMM-Newton data of the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy RE J1034+396. The long exposure ensures high spectral quality and provides us with a detailed look at the intrinsic absorption and emission features toward this target. Two warm-absorber (WA) components with different ionization states (

) are required to explain the intrinsic absorption features in the Reflection Grating Spectrometer spectra. The estimated outflow velocities are around −1400 km s−1 and −(100–300) km s−1 for the high- and low-ionization WA components, respectively. Both absorbers are located beyond the broad-line region and cannot significantly affect the host environment. We analyze the warm absorbers in different flux states. We also examine the 2007 May observation in the low and high phases of quasiperiodic oscillation (QPO). In contrast to previous analyses showing a negative correlation between the high-ionization WA and the QPO phase, we have found no such variation in this WA component. We discover a broad emission bump in the spectral range of ∼12–18 Å, covering the primary features of the high-ionization WA. This emission bump shows a dramatic change in different source states, and its intensity may positively correlate with the QPO phase. The absence of this emission bump in previous work may contribute to the suggested WA–QPO connection.
Scattering of Giant Planets and Implications for the Origin of the Hierarchical and Eccentric Two-planet System GJ 1148
Authors: Yuan Longhui , Lee Man Hoi
Published: May 2024

The GJ 1148 system has two Saturn-mass planets orbiting around an M dwarf star on hierarchical and eccentric orbits, with orbital period ratio of 13 and eccentricities of both planets of 0.375. The inner planet is in the regime of eccentric warm Jupiters. We perform numerical experiments to study the planet–planet scattering scenario for the origin of this orbital architecture. We consider a third planet of 0.1M
J (Jupiter's mass) in the initial GJ 1148 system with initial orbital separations of 3.5, 4, and 4.5 mutual Hill radii and initial semimajor axis of the innermost planet in the range of 0.10–0.50 au. The majority of scattering results in planet–planet collisions, followed by planet ejections, and planet–star close approaches. Among them, only planet ejections produce eccentric and widely separated two-planet systems, with some having similar orbital properties to the GJ 1148 system. We also examine the effects of general relativistic apsidal precession and a higher mass of 0.227M
J for the third planet. The simulation results suggest that the GJ 1148 system may have lost a giant planet. We also perform simulations of the general problem of the origin of warm Jupiters by planet–planet scattering. As in the GJ 1148 simulations, a nontrivial number of stable two-planet systems are produced by ejection, which disagrees with the result from a previous study showing that two-planet systems arise exclusively through planet–planet collisions.
Constraining Free–Free Emission and Photoevaporative Mass-loss Rates for Known Proplyds and New VLA–identified Candidate Proplyds in NGC 1977
Authors: Boyden Ryan D. , Eisner Josh A.
Published: May 2024

We present NSF's Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array observations covering the NGC 1977 region at 3.0, 6.4, and 15.0 GHz. We search for compact radio sources and detect continuum emission from 34 NGC 1977 cluster members and 37 background objects. Of the 34 radio-detected cluster members, 3 are associated with known proplyds in NGC 1977, 22 are associated with additional young stellar objects in NGC 1977, and 9 are newly identified cluster members. We examine the radio spectral energy distributions, circular polarization, and variability of the detected NGC 1977 sources and identify 10 new candidate proplyds whose radio fluxes are dominated by optically thin free–free emission. We use measurements of free–free emission to calculate the mass-loss rates of known proplyds and new candidate proplyds in NGC 1977, and find values ∼10−9 to 10−8
M
⊙ yr−1, which are lower than the mass-loss rates measured toward proplyds in the Orion Nebula Cluster but consistent with the mass-loss rates predicted by external photoevaporation models for spatially extended disks that are irradiated by the typical external ultraviolet (UV) fields encountered in NGC 1977. Finally, we show that photoevaporative disk winds in NGC 1977 may be illuminated by internal or external sources of ionization, depending on their positions within the cluster. This study provides new constraints on disk properties in a clustered star-forming region with a weaker UV environment than the Orion Nebula Cluster but a stronger UV environment than low-mass star-forming regions like Taurus. Such intermediate UV environments represent the typical conditions of Galactic star and planet formation.
Revisiting High-energy Polarization from Leptonic and Hadronic Blazar Scenarios
Authors: Zhang Haocheng , Böttcher Markus , Liodakis Ioannis
Published: May 2024

X-ray and MeV polarization can be powerful diagnostics for leptonic and hadronic blazar models. Previous predictions are mostly based on a one-zone framework. However, recent IXPE observations of Mrk 421 and 501 strongly favor a multizone framework. Thus, the leptonic and hadronic polarization predictions need to be revisited. Here we identify two generic radiation transfer effects, namely, double depolarization and energy stratification, that can have an impact on the leptonic and hadronic polarization. We show how they are generalized from previously known multizone effects of the primary electron synchrotron radiation. Under our generic multizone model, the leptonic polarization degree is expected to be much lower than the one-zone prediction, unlikely detectable in most cases. The hadronic polarization degree can reach a value as high as the primary electron synchrotron polarization during simultaneous multiwavelength flares, consistent with the one-zone prediction. Therefore, IXPE and future X-ray and MeV polarimeters such as eXTP, COSI, and AMEGO-X, have good chances to detect hadronic polarization during flares. However, the hadronic polarization cannot be well constrained during the quiescent state. Nonetheless, if some blazar jets possess relatively stable large-scale magnetic structures, as suggested by radio observations, a nontrivial polarization degree may show up for the hadronic model after a very long exposure time (≳1 yr).

Automatic Sarcasm Detection on Cross-Platform Social Media Datasets: A GLoVe and Bi-LSTM Based Approach 
Authors: Farhan Saima , Shoukat Rubiya , Aslam Aqsa
Published: May 2024

Sarcastic remarks on social media platforms have become commonplace, with people expressing their bad feelings in a quite positive manner or in a mocking way. This contradictive nature of sarcasm makes its detection a very challenging task. Many researchers have provided their solutions to perform automatic sarcasm detection from a single domain dataset. Most of them have considered only the content of the text and has ignored the context of the text. Understanding that the context of a text is the most important factor in determining either it is sarcastic or not. This study aims to detect sarcastic remarks from multi-domain dataset by using Bi-LSTM model employed with pre-trained GloVe word embeddings because the GloVe embeddings and Bi-LSTM both are good at capturing contextual information from the provided data. The dataset is generated by the concatenation of three publicly available datasets, the gosh tweets, the news headlines dataset, and the sarcasm corpus v2 dataset. GloVe embeddings will extract contextual and semantic features from the text while the Bi-LSTM model will get trained and tested on those features. The proposed model has achieved 86.35% of accuracy with 88% of Recall, Precision, and F1-score. Different experiments have been done to test the model's reliability. This study's findings indicate that the proposed model yields state-of-the-art or comparable results. The proposed study aids in improving the performance of sentiment analysis. It will also help individuals, and different organizations to identify accurate sentiments of people about individuals or products of an organization. 
A new genus and species of nicoletiid silverfish (Insecta, Zygentoma, Nicoletiidae) from caves of northern Alabama, USA
Authors: Espinasa Luis , Gutierrez Abrianna , Hinkle Amata , Niemiller Matthew L.
Published: May 2024

A new genus and species of troglobiotic nicoletiid (Insecta, Zygentoma, Nicoletiidae) is described from northern Alabama, USA. The type species was collected from three caves in the Highland Rim section of the Interior Low Plateau physiographic province on the northern side of the Tennessee River Valley. Morphological and genetic analysis using the mitochondrial 16S rRNA locus show that Spinanycta alabamensissp. nov. is quite distinct from related nicoletiids in North America. The species differs from members of other genera by its urosternum I, which in males is modified with a central pointy extension. The new species significantly extends the distribution of cave-dwelling members of the family into the southeastern United States and suggests that additional nicoletiid diversity remains to be discovered from karst regions of the eastern United States.

Published: May 2024

Sidon sets have several applications in mathematics and in real-world problems, including the generation of secret keys in cryptography, error-correcting codes, and the physical problem of compression of signals in telecommunications. In particular, in cryptography, the design of cryptographic functions with optimal properties like nonlinearity and differential uniformity plays a fundamental role in the development of secure cryptographic systems. Based on the construction of Bose-type Sidon sets, in this paper we present the construction of a new cryptographic function with good properties of nonlinearity and differential uniformity.

Cloud computing (CC) refers to the transmission, storage, and processing of any type of information at a location that is not owned or controlled by the information owner. This information can be stored and accessed anytime, from anywhere, and using any device. However, several challenges threaten the deployment of cloud computing technology within organizations, including user privacy, data integrity, and managing the retention of the vast amount of data that will be stored and analyzed in this environment. In recent years, various data integrity checking systems and data storage mechanisms have been proposed to address these diverse challenges. Nevertheless, some protocols do not guarantee data confidentiality against auditors during the auditing process, while others do not provide batch auditing. Additionally, the majority of these protocols do not support the deduplication technique. Therefore, in this research work, the security features of blockchain technology and those of multi-agent systems (MAS) have prompted us to propose models that enable both data deduplication, saving storage space, and data integrity auditing, efficiently verifying the accuracy of data outsourced to CC environments. Implementation findings indicate that the suggested system is highly feasible and applicable in real-world scenarios.
Une île déserte déjà exploitée ?
Authors: Nakae Taichi
Published: May 2024

Le lecteur est peut-être étonné par le fait qu'il n'y a presque que de la faune originaire d’Europe qui habite l'île déserte où Robinson Crusoé échoue : des chats, des lapins et des chèvres. Bien que ce roman fasse l'objet de critiques postcoloniales et écocritiques depuis la fin du xxe siècle, il semble que l'on ne se soit pas suffisamment interrogé sur ce paradoxe apparent : pourquoi des animaux européens habitent-ils déjà cette terre vierge où Robinson est le premier Européen à poser le pied ? Dans cet article, nous tenterons d'abord d'interpréter Robinson Crusoé comme un récit d'effacement des dettes et des emprunts en le comparant à la relation de voyage écrite par Woodes Rogers, censée avoir inspiré Daniel Defoe pour écrire son premier roman. Ensuite, en nous référant au concept d’ » impérialisme écologique » d'Alfred Crosby, nous esquisserons un nouvel horizon dans l'analyse de la robinsonnade en insérant celle-ci dans l'histoire de la colonisation.
Le snapshot sur le marché de Saint-Mandé
Authors: Durr Rose
Published: May 2024

Le marché du snapshot – photographies anciennes à caractère banal, issues de pratiques privées ou professionnelles, également nommées photographies amateur, anonymes, de famille ou encore vernaculaires – s’est lentement développé en France et à Paris au cours des quarante dernières années. Le marché des collectionneurs de Saint-Mandé, dans la proximité immédiate de Paris, en est l’un des lieux clés. À partir d’une étude ethnographique de quelques stands de ce marché, et d’échanges avec plusieurs de ses acteurs et actrices, cet article se propose d’étudier les valeurs accordées aux snapshots, notamment la valeur marchande, qui dépend de multiples facteurs et de mécanismes institutionnels parfois discrets. Les snapshots apparaissent ainsi pris dans de multiples valeurs, concurrentes et complémentaires, qui s’enchevêtrent. Il s’agit ici de rendre compte des pratiques observées à Saint-Mandé, et du rôle des individus rencontrés dans l’attribution de valeurs aux snapshots.
Les bouches d’aération du métro algérois, une source d’énergie inexploitée et un potentiel architectural inexploré
Authors: Athamena Khaled
Published: May 2024

Cet article a pour objectif de mettre en lumière le potentiel énergétique des bouches d’aération du métro algérois de même que la pollution de l’air qu’elles peuvent engendrer. Le but étant de sensibiliser la communauté scientifique ainsi que celle des architectes et urbanistes aux bienfaits de ces enceintes souterraines et d’attirer leur attention sur les risques qu’elles peuvent engendrer sur la santé des usagers ainsi que sur la qualité de l’air des espaces publics algérois. Cette étude présente, par ailleurs, des solutions de mutation architecturale de ces bouches d’aération, aménagées le plus souvent au ras du sol, en « tours de ventilation » afin de limiter leur risque sanitaire, et fournit des pistes de réflexion sur leur intégration dans le paysage urbain algérois. Parmi les solutions proposées, l’architecture parasite représente une alternative novatrice pour optimiser le profit et l’intégration de ces tours de ventilation dans leur milieu urbain. Une proposition de conception de cette architecture est proposée. Elle a été entamée dans le cadre d’une expérience pédagogique sur une bouche de métro située à l’intérieur d’une friche urbaine localisée au quartier d’El-Hamma à Alger. Une proposition architecturale qui a permis d’allier « technicité », à travers la récupération de l’énergie aérodynamique et géothermique de la bouche d’aération, et « action parasite » à travers une architecture réversible. Cette dernière se démarque par son engagement, tantôt en faveur de la protection de l’environnement, tantôt pour dénoncer les approches brutales de démolition et militante d’une approche de mutation et de redynamisation des situations architecturale et urbaine en perte de vitalité.
The “Séré de Rivières” type fort: geomorphological approaches to polemolandscapes (GIS, LiDAR, military archives). Example of the fortified belt of Reims (France)
Authors: Ancelin Pierre-Yves , Devos Alain , Laratte Sébastien , Berthe Julien
Published: May 2024

The purpose of this research is to study the place of the “Séré de Rivières” type fortification in the geomorphological dimension of the war landscape. A multiscalar approach is proposed to analyze the geomorphological context of this defensive system. It appears that the rationalization of the relief is effective at all scales: the defensive system is rooted in the eastern mountain massifs and in the cuesta system of the Paris Basin; the strongholds of Reims locks a funnel of consequent valley (Vesle River) by basing itself on the reliefs associated to the cuesta of Île-de-France (reverse side of the cuesta, residual hills, outliers). The cross-analysis under GIS of an airborne LiDAR survey of the Nogent-l'Abbesse fort sector (fortified belt of Reims), and of documentary and field sources, provides a diachronic vision allowing to sort out the forms and to polyphase the “morphogenesis” of this polemolandscape. Its construction and modernization (1875-1892) testify to an architectural standardization, a remarkable adaptation to the reliefs and the reasoned use of local geomaterials. Its integration into the defense networks of the WW1 induced mutual pedological (pedoturbation), morphological (bombturbation) and spatial disturbances between the forts (ramps, tunnels, shelters) and the different components of these networks (trenches, observatories, artillery positions, etc.). This highlights the impact of these fortifications prior to the WW1, which tended to be obscured by this fundamentally morphogenic conflict. Finally, it questions the resilience of these morphologies associated with the war and the patrimonialization of their ecological (islands of biodiversity), geomorphological (“polemogeomorphosite”) and historical wealth.

Published: May 2024

Community grasslands, inhabited by Imperata cylindrica, in northeast India contribute culturally to the rural landscape in the region. A study carried out to examine the fine root biomass and soil properties of these grasslands. Using iron cores, dry matter of fine roots and some soil parameters were determined sequentially across different depths. The results revealed that fine root biomass dynamics followed unimodal growth curve with one peak during the study period. In burnt plot, fine root biomass varied from 95.8 - 199.8 gm/m2, 47.9 - 94.2 gm/m2 and 27.0 - 58.7 gm/m2 in 0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-30 cm depths, respectively. The corresponding values for unburnt plot were 99.9 - 206.7, 51.6 - 94.63 and 27.0 - 58.9 gm/m2. Fine roots were concentrated in the surface soil layer and decreased down the soil profile. In terms of the temporal variations, the maximum accumulation of dry matter was reported during the winter months. High content of soil organic carbon (%) and nitrogen (%) were recorded in the topsoil in contrast to the subsoil over two plots. The data indicated that the soil organic carbon and fine root biomass were significantly correlated at p < 0.001. The carbon stocks of topsoil were recorded as 10.79 and 9.52 t C/ha for burnt and unburnt plots, respectively.
Human Capital Valuation and Development: Prospects and Challenges in Sri Lanka
Authors: Weligamage S.S.
Published: May 2024

Human Capital plays a prominent role as the major factor in the development of individuals, organisations and countries as a whole. Sri Lanka is experiencing a challenging economic and social environment and moving towards changes in economic growth and human capital mobility. The government and all employers need to rethink recognising and providing appropriate value for the human capital in Sri Lanka. This concept paper aims to provide an overview of human capital valuation and development in Sri Lanka and find out the prospects and challenges. Data was collected through secondary data sources using different reports available in Sri Lanka and at the international level and presented using explanations and descriptions. Based on the information, the review revealed several important areas that would directly impact human capital enhancement in the country. More focus should be given to tertiary and vocational education, labour force participation, unemployment, high-skills employment, talent shortage, middle-skills employment, long-term unemployment, public spending on education, employment gender gap, developing more human capital in the areas of health, service and welfare sector to meet the future global job market. At the same time, Sri Lankan organisations should consider valuing their human capital and calculating the Return on Investment (ROI) at the organisational level. Sri Lanka should focus more on catering to the international labour demand related to the professional, skilled, and semi-skilled categories in light of the decline in demand for low-skilled labour in the international labour market.
