Computational generation of slogans
Authors: Alnajjar Khalid , Toivonen Hannu 
Published: June 2020

AbstractIn advertising, slogans are used to enhance the recall of the advertised product by consumers and to distinguish it from others in the market. Creating effective slogans is a resource-consuming task for humans. In this paper, we describe a novel method for automatically generating slogans, given a target concept (e.g., car) and an adjectival property to express (e.g., elegant) as input. Additionally, a key component in our approach is a novel method for generating nominal metaphors, using a metaphor interpretation model, to allow generating metaphorical slogans. The method for generating slogans extracts skeletons from existing slogans. It then fills a skeleton in with suitable words by utilizing multiple linguistic resources (such as a repository of grammatical relations, and semantic and language models) and genetic algorithms to optimize multiple objectives such as semantic relatedness, language correctness, and usage of rhetorical devices. We evaluate the metaphor and slogan generation methods by running crowdsourced surveys. On a five-point Likert scale, we ask online judges to evaluate whether the generated metaphors, along with three other metaphors generated using different methods, highlight the intended property. The slogan generation method is evaluated by asking crowdsourced judges to rate generated slogans from five perspectives: (1) how well is the slogan related to the topic, (2) how correct is the language of the slogan, (3) how metaphoric is the slogan, (4) how catchy, attractive, and memorable is it, and (5) how good is the slogan overall. Similarly, we evaluate existing expert-made slogans. Based on the evaluations, we analyze the method and provide insights regarding existing slogans. The empirical results indicate that our metaphor generation method is capable of producing apt metaphors. Regarding the slogan generator, the results suggest that the method has successfully produced at least one effective slogan for every evaluated input.

Abstract

Objective:
To investigate the level of public acceptability of a sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) tax and its associated factors.

Design:
Participants completed an online self-administered questionnaire. Acceptability of an SSB tax was measured on a seven-point Likert scale (strongly disagree to strongly agree). Associations between acceptability and sociodemographic factors, weight status, SSB consumption and beliefs about effectiveness (e.g., ‘An SSB tax would reduce people’s SSB consumption’), appropriateness, socioeconomic and economic benefit, implementation and trust were assessed using multivariable linear regression analyses.

Setting:
The Netherlands.

Participants:
Dutch adults aged ≥18 years representative of the Dutch population for age, sex, education level and location (n 500).

Results:
Of the participants, 40 % supported and 43 % opposed an SSB tax in general. Moreover, 42 % supported (43 % opposed) an SSB tax as a strategy to reduce overweight, and 55 % supported (32 % opposed) an SSB tax if revenue is used for health initiatives. Participants with a low education level (B = –0·82, 95 % CI –1·31, –0·32), overweight (B = –0·49, 95 % CI –0·89, –0·09), moderate or high SSB consumption (B = –0·86, 95 % CI –1·30, –0·43 and B = –1·01, 95 % CI –1·47, –0·56, respectively) and households with adolescents (B = –0·57, 95 % CI –1·09, –0·05) reported a lower acceptability of an SSB tax than their counterparts. Beliefs about effectiveness, appropriateness, socioeconomic and economic benefit, implementation and trust were associated with acceptability (P < 0·001).

Conclusions:
Public acceptability of an SSB tax tends to be higher if revenue is used for health initiatives. The factors associated with acceptability should be taken into consideration.
Characterizing Boundedness in Chase Variants

Published: June 2020

AbstractExistential rules are a positive fragment of first-order logic that generalizes function-free Horn rules by allowing existentially quantified variables in rule heads. This family of languages has recently attracted significant interest in the context of ontology-mediated query answering. Forward chaining, also known as the chase, is a fundamental tool for computing universal models of knowledge bases, which consist of existential rules and facts. Several chase variants have been defined, which differ on the way they handle redundancies. A set of existential rules is bounded if it ensures the existence of a bound on the depth of the chase, independently from any set of facts. Deciding if a set of rules is bounded is an undecidable problem for all chase variants. Nevertheless, when computing universal models, knowing that a set of rules is bounded for some chase variant does not help much in practice if the bound remains unknown or even very large. Hence, we investigate the decidability of the k-boundedness problem, which asks whether the depth of the chase for a given set of rules is bounded by an integer k. We identify a general property which, when satisfied by a chase variant, leads to the decidability of k-boundedness. We then show that the main chase variants satisfy this property, namely the oblivious, semi-oblivious (aka Skolem), and restricted chase, as well as their breadth-first versions.
Constraining star formation timescales with molecular gas and young star clusters
Authors: Grasha Kathryn , Calzetti Daniela 
Published: June 2020

AbstractStar formation provides insight into the physical processes that govern the transformation of gas into stars. A key missing piece in a predictive theory of star formation is the link between scales of individual stars and star clusters up to entire galaxies. LEGUS is now providing the information to test the overall organization and spatial evolution of star formation. We present our latest findings of using star clusters from LEGUS combined with ALMA CO observations to investigate the transition from molecular gas to star formation in local galaxies. This work paves the way for future JWST observations of the embedded phase of star formation, the last missing ingredient to connect young star clusters and their relation with gas reservoirs. Multi-wavelength studies of local galaxies and their stellar and gas components will help shed light on early phases of galaxy evolution and properties of the ISM at high-z.
Discovery of the most distant star-forming and quenched galaxies in the universe
Authors: Finkelstein Steven L. 
Published: June 2020

AbstractWhile the high-redshift component of the CANDELS survey was designed with the z ∼ 6–8 era in mind, these data do probe the far-UV of galaxies at even higher redshift. A few studies have ventured this far out, and have published conflicting results - some continue to find significant star-formation, while others conclude there is a steep decline in this quantity. Here I report on a new search for z = 9–10 galaxies, making significant use of the Spitzer/IRAC data in the CANDELS fields. We have discovered a larger number of galaxies in this epoch than previous works, implying the UV luminosity function, and thus the SFR density, may not evolve as steeply as previously thought. This implies that star-formation begins early in the universe. I will also report on a new study searching for the earliest quenched galaxies at 3 < z < 5, which are not predicted by models, yet may exist if galaxies form very early, and thus can approach their quenching phase quicker.
Massive quasar host galaxies in the reionisation epoch
Authors: Venemans Bram P. , Walter Fabian , Neeleman Marcel , Novak Mladen , Decarli Roberto 
Published: June 2020

AbstractLuminous quasars are powered by accretion onto supermassive black holes. Such luminous quasars have been discovered up to the highest redshifts,z> 7. Here we discuss recent observations of the host galaxies of luminous quasars atz≳ 6. We do not find a correlation between ongoing black hole growth and star-formation rate in the high redshift quasars, possibly indicating that black holes and their hosts do not co-evolve. We further show that even with high spatial resolution observations of the gas kinematics, dynamical mass estimates remain highly uncertain and should be used with caution.
A sub-kiloparsec-scale view of un-lensed submillimeter galaxies
Authors: Tadaki Ken-ichi , Iono Daisuke 
Published: June 2020

AbstractSubmillimeter galaxies at z > 3 building up their central cores through compact starbursts with an effective radius of 1–2 kpc. Our ALMA high-resolution observations reveal off-center gas clumps in a submillimeter galaxy at z = 4.3, COSMOS-AzTEC-1, as well as a rotation-dominated disk. Exploiting the kinematic properties and the spatial distribution of gas mass surface density, we find that the starburst disk is gravitationally unstable. This result is consistent with a scenario where in-situ clumps are formed through disk instability. On the other hand, we find evidence for an ex-situ clump that does not corotate with the starburst disk. The accretion of such a non-corotating clump could stimulate violent disk instability, driving gas inflows into the central regions of the galaxy. Our results suggest that compact cores are formed through an extreme starburst due to a gravitational instability, triggered by non-corotating clumps.
PAHs and star formation in ELAIS N1 as seen by AKARI

Published: June 2020

AbstractWe have examined the relationship between star formation and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by fitting the spectral energy distributions (SED) of AKARI selected galaxies. PAHs are excited by the ultraviolet (UV) photons of young stars and can trace star formation in galaxies, but they are disassociated by the strong UV radiation in starbursts. AKARI covered the mid-infrared, where the PAHs emit their radiation, with a high density of photometric bands. These observations allow us to estimate the star formation rate and the PAH mass fraction of the dust in galaxies. In the future the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will also make measurements in this wavelength range. This research can therefore be considered as a pathfinder to similar studies that will come later from JWST observations.
Constraints on the production and escape of ionizing radiation from the emission-lines of metal-poor star-forming galaxies

Published: June 2020

AbstractTo understand how the nature of the ionizing sources and the leakage of ionizing photons in high-redshift galaxies can be constrained from their emission-line spectra, we compare emission-line models of star-forming galaxies including leakage of ionizing radiation, active galactic nuclei (AGN) and radiative shocks, with observations of galaxies at various redshifts with properties expected to approach those of primeval galaxies.
FADO: A novel self-consistency spectral population synthesis tool for the exploration of galaxy evolution at high redshift
Authors: Michel Gomes Jean 
Published: June 2020

AbstractDespite significant progress over the past decades, all state-of-the-art population synthesis (PS) codes suffer from deficiencies limiting their potential of gaining sharp insights into the star formation history (SFH) and Chemical Enrichment History (CEH) of star-forming galaxies, i.e. the neglect of nebular continuum and, the lack of a mechanism to ensure consistency between the best-fitting SFH and the observed nebular characteristics (ONC; Balmer-lines, Balmer/Paschen jumps). These introduce biases in their recovered physical properties (stellar mass M* and sSFR). FADO is a novel self-consistent PS code employing genetic optimization, publicly available (http://www.spectralsynthesis.org), capable of identifying the SFH & CEH that reproduce the ONC of a galaxy, alleviating degeneracies in the spectral fits. The current version of FADO (v1.b) uses standard BPT emission-line ratios for the classification of low redshift (z) galaxies. Whereas this permits a reliable distinction between star-forming, Composite, Seyfert and LINERs, it is inapplicable to many intermediate-z galaxies. We present an adaptation of FADO (version v1.c) to classify higher z galaxies employing the “Blue Diagram” (e.g., Lamareille 2010) for which the most prominent blue emission-lines (< [OIII]5007Å) are observable while the Hα and [NII] are inaccessible. FADO v1.c was applied to synthetic spectra simulating the evolution of galaxies formed at higher-z with different SFHs. FADO can recover the physical and evolutionary properties of galaxies, such as M* and mean age/metallicity, with an accuracy significantly better than purely-stellar codes. An outline of FADO v1.c and applications to local and intermediate-z galaxies will be presented.

AbstractStarburst galaxies at z ∼ 2 – 4 are among the most intensely star-forming galaxies in the universe. The way they accrete their gas to form stars at such high rates is still a controversial issue. ALMA has detected the CH+ (J = 1-0) line in emission and/or absorption in all the gravitationally lensed starburst galaxies targeted so far at z ∼ 3. Its unique spectroscopic and chemical properties enable CH+ to highlight the sites of most intense dissipation of mechanical energy. The absorption lines reveal highly turbulent, massive reservoirs of low-density molecular gas. The broad emission lines, arising in myriad UV-irradiated molecular shocks, reveal powerful galactic winds. The CH+ lines therefore probe the fate of prodigious energy releases, due to infall and/or outflows, and primarily stored in turbulence before being radiated by cool molecular gas. The turbulent reservoirs act as mass and energy buffers over the duration of the starburst phase.
An ALMA view of galaxies in the Epoch of Reionisation
Authors: Smit Renske 
Published: June 2020

AbstractIn the past decade hundreds of galaxies have been identified in the Epoch of Reionisation, selected from their rest-frame UV light. Only a handful of these sources, however, have spectroscopic redshift determinations and we have limited understanding of their physical properties. ALMA is currently transforming this field by providing the first view of the dust obscured star-formation, the kinematics of these sources, the cool gas traced by [CII] and highly ionised gas traced by [OIII]. In this talk I will discuss new and recent results on the UV-bright galaxy population during the first billion years of cosmic time and what they imply for their observational and physical properties.
Unveiling the nature of the brightest z > 6 galaxies with ALMA and JWST
Authors: Bowler Rebecca 
Published: June 2020

AbstractThe very brightest z > 6 galaxies are ideal laboratories for studying the physical properties of star-forming objects into the epoch of reionization. Selected from degree-scale, ground-based fields, these rare objects provide a key insight into early dust production and may harbour faint AGN. Targeted follow-up of small samples have unexpectedly shown both Lyman-alpha emission and other rest-frame UV lines (e.g CIV and HeII), suggesting unique star-formation conditions (or AGN) at early times. Furthermore, ALMA observations have revealed that 75% of the star-formation in these galaxies may be obscured. I will talk about HST/ALMA follow-up of bright z ∼ 7 LBGs in COSMOS and present new results from even brighter samples from z = 6 – 9 selected over ∼ 5 deg2. The power of both ALMA and JWST, coupled with the intrinsic luminosity of these sources, will provide a unique insight into the formation and evolution of vigorously star-forming galaxies in the first billion years.
A VLT/MUSE analysis of HeIIλ1640 emitters at z = 2 – 4
Authors: Nanayakkara Themiya 
Published: June 2020

AbstractIn the quest to study early star-formation physics in the universe, one of the most sought after tracers is HeIIλ1640, with its presence in the lack of other metal emission/absorption lines generally being interpreted as evidence for metal-poor stellar populations. HeII ionizing photons are produced via sources of hard ionizing radiation and requires photons with energies ⩾ 54.4eV, however, traditional stellar population models lack sufficient ionising photons to match with current observations. Our analysis of z = 2 – 4 HeIIλ1640 emitters from deep 10-30h pointings from MUSE has shown that ISM properties inferred from multiple rest-UV diagnostics are not compatible with requirements necessary to reproduce HeIIλ1640 equivalent-widths. Thus, we have used latest generation of single, rotational, and binary stellar population models with realistic dust physics to explore rest-UV emission line diagnostics and link with H and He+ ionisation photon production efficiencies (ξion (H,He+)) in a variety of stellar/gas metallicities and star-formation histories. I will discus our latest results and show that including ‘exotic’ stellar phenomena such as extreme low-metallicity binary stars, X-ray binaries, and dust dissociation physics may be necessary to lessen the tension between models and observations.
A rapidly evolving quasar population at the epoch of reionzation
Authors: Fan Xiaohui 
Published: June 2020

AbstractI will present results from our on-going large area survey of high-redshift quasars, which has discovered more than 20 new quasars at z > 6.5, at the epoch of reionization, forming the first large statistical sample of EoR quasars. I will discuss the rapid evolution of quasar density at that epoch, which suggests that we are witnessing the emergence of the first supermassive black hole population. I will also present multiwavelength followup observation results, especially from ALMA and Chandra, which reveals a diverse environment of quasar activities and yields new insights into the supermassive black hole/massive galaxy co-evolution.
Spatially resolving the relics: The inferring the physics driving the quenching of massive galaxies from kinematics at z ∼ 1 and beyond
Authors: Bezanson Rachel 
Published: June 2020

AbstractToday's massive elliptical galaxies are primarily red-and-dead, dispersion supported ellipticals. The physical process(es) driving the shutdown or ‘quenching’ of star formation in these galaxies remains one of the least understood aspects of galaxy formation and evolution. Although today's spiral and elliptical galaxies exhibit a clear bimodality in their structures, kinematics, and stellar populations, it may be that the quenching and structural transformation do no occur simultaneously. In this talk I will present evidence that early quiescent galaxies, observed much closer to their quenching epoch at z ∼ 1, retain significant rotational support (∼ twice as much as local ellipticals). This suggests that the mechanisms responsible for shutting down star formation do not also have to destroy ordered motion in massive galaxies; the increased dispersion support could occur subsequently via hierarchical growth and minor merging. I will discuss this evidence in conjunction with recent ALMA studies of the dramatic range in molecular gas reservoirs of recently quenched high redshift galaxies to constrain quenching models. Finally, I will discuss prospects for extending spatially resolved spectroscopic studies of galaxies immediately following quenching with JWST and eventually 30-m class telescopes.
Resolving on 100 pc-scales the UV-continuum in Lyman-emitters between redshift 2 to 3 with gravitational lensing
Authors: Ritondale Elisa 
Published: June 2020

AbstractLyman-alpha emitting (LAE) galaxies are thought to be predominantly responsible for the re-ionisation of the Universe and are, as such, one of the most studied star-forming galaxy populations. Current optical and narrow-band studies are limited by the angular resolution of the observations and the considerable investment in telescope time. Strong gravitational lensing is an extremely powerful method that can be used to overcome these limitations. In my talk I will present a study on the first homogeneous sample of 17 lensed Lyman-alpha emitters at redshift 2 < z < 3. By taking advantage of the lensing magnification, I was able to access the detailed structure of this high redshift star-forming galaxies, finding that they have radii ranging from 0.2 to 1.8 kpc and have a complex and clumpy morphology, with a median ellipticity of 0.49. This is consistent with disk-like structures of star-formation, which would rule out models where the Lyman-alpha emission is only seen perpendicular to the disk, and favours those clumpy models for the escape lines of sight for Lyman-alpha photons. We also find that the star formation rates range from 0.3 to 8.5 Mȯ/yr and that these galaxies tend to be very compact. The lower limit to their intrinsic size is about a factor of two smaller than that found for non-lensed LAEs, which highlights the power of gravitational lensing and sophisticated lens modelling techniques for resolving such objects in the high redshift Universe.
Galaxies at high z: The MUSE revolution
Authors: Bacon Roland 
Published: June 2020

AbstractSpectroscopic observations of galaxies at high redshift has recently been revolutionised by the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument in operation at the VLT since 2014. Thanks to its unrivalled capabilities, MUSE has been able to increase by an order of magnitude the number of spectroscopic redshifts in these fields. The most spectacular increase is at high redshift (z > 3), where MUSE was able to detect thousands of Lyman-alpha emitters. In the deepest exposures, MUSE is even able to goes beyond the limiting magnitude of the deepest HST exposures. These observations have led to a breakthrough in our understanding of the high redshift universe: e.g. the discovery of Lyman-alpha emission from the circumgalactic medium around individual galaxies, the role and property of low mass galaxies. In this talk I will present the latest results obtained with the MUSE observations of the Hubble deep and ultra-deep fields.
Toward a new understanding of disk galaxy formation
Authors: Kassin Susan 
Published: June 2020

AbstractOne of the most important open issues in astronomy is the assembly of galactic disks. Over the last decade this has been addressed with large surveys of the internal kinematics of galaxies spanning the last 10 billion years of the universe. I will discuss recent results from the field that show the kinematic assembly of disk galaxies since a redshift of 2.5, including recent deep 10–30 hour observations by my group with the DEIMOS spectrograph on Keck. These results strongly challenge traditional analytic models of galaxy formation and provide an important benchmark for simulations. Furthermore, I will discuss our plans for extending measurements to higher redshifts with future instruments such as the JWST's NIRSpec IFU and the E-ELT's MOSAIC and HARMONI IFUs. From mock JWST and E-ELT observations of simulated galaxies, we are learning that interpreting these observations of galaxies in the early universe, when merging is frequent, is not necessarily straightforward.
