Stepsize errors in the N-body problem: discerning Mercury’s true possible long-term orbits
Authors: Hernandez David M , Zeebe Richard E , Hadden Sam 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT
Numerical integrations of the Solar system have been carried out for decades. Their results have been used, for example to determine whether the Solar system is chaotic, whether Mercury’s orbit is stable, or to help discern Earth’s climate history. We argue that all of the past studies we consider in this work are affected by numerical chaos to different degrees, affecting the possible orbits and instability probability of Mercury, sometimes significantly. We show how to eliminate the effects of numerical chaos by resolving Mercury’s pericentre passage. We also show that several higher order symplectic maps do not exhibit significant differences in resolving pericentre passage of Mercury (at fixed time-step), making their advantages suspect for calculating long-term orbits. Resolving pericentre passage affects a wide array of orbital numerical studies, like exoplanet studies, studies of the galactic centre, and other N-body problems.
The ALMaQUEST survey IX: the nature of the resolved star forming main sequence
Authors: Baker William M , Maiolino Roberto , Bluck Asa F L , Lin Lihwai , Ellison Sara L , Belfiore Francesco , Pan Hsi-An , Thorp Mallory 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACTWe investigate the nature of the scaling relations between the surface density of star formation rate (ΣSFR), stellar mass (Σ*), and molecular gas mass ($\Sigma _{\rm H_2}$), aiming at distinguishing between the relations that are primary, i.e. more fundamental, and those which are instead an indirect by-product of the other relations. We use the ALMA-MaNGA QUEnching and STar formation survey and analyse the data by using both partial correlations and random forest regression techniques. We unambiguously find that the strongest intrinsic correlation is between ΣSFR and $\Sigma _{\rm H_2}$ (i.e. the resolved Schmidt–Kennicutt relation), followed by the correlation between $\Sigma _{\rm H_2}$ and Σ* (resolved molecular gas main sequence, rMGMS). Once these two correlations are taken into account, we find that there is no evidence for any intrinsic correlation between ΣSFR and Σ*, implying that star formation rate (SFR) is entirely driven by the amount of molecular gas, while its dependence on stellar mass (i.e. the resolved star forming main sequence, rSFMS) simply emerges as a consequence of the relationship between molecular gas and stellar mass.
Intrinsic and extrinsic gravitational flexions
Authors: Giesel Eileen Sophie , Ghosh Basundhara , Schäfer Björn Malte 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT
The topic of this paper is a generalization of the linear model for intrinsic alignments of galaxies to intrinsic flexions: In this model, third moments of the brightness distribution reflect distortions of elliptical galaxies caused by third derivatives of the gravitational potential, or, equivalently, gradients of the tidal gravitational fields. With this extension of the linear model mediating between the brightness distribution and the tidal gravitational fields and with a quantification of the shape of the galaxy at third order provided by the HOLICs-formalism, we are able to compute angular spectra of intrinsic flexions and the cross-spectra with weak lensing flexions. Spectra for intrinsic flexions are typically an order of magnitude smaller than lensing flexions, exactly as in the case of intrinsic ellipticity in comparison to weak shear. We find a negative cross-correlation between intrinsic and extrinsic gravitational flexions, too, complementing the analogous correlation between intrinsic and extrinsic ellipticity. After discussing the physical details of the alignment model to provide intrinsic flexions and their scaling properties, we quantify the observability of the intrinsic and extrinsic flexions and estimate with the Fisher-formalism how well the alignment parameter can be determined from a Euclid-like weak lensing survey. Intrinsic flexions are very difficult to measure and yield appreciable signals only with highly optimistic parameter choices and noise levels, while being basically undetectable for more realistic flexion measurement errors.
Clinical practice guidance for childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus—secondary publication

ABSTRACT
Childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) has been recognised as a more acute and severe autoimmune disease than adult-onset SLE. With the development of medications for the disease and supportive therapy, the mortality rate associated with cSLE has drastically improved; the 10-year survival rate among patients with cSLE between 1995 and 2006 in Japan was 98.3%. However, the 10-year survival rate without any permanent functional impairment remained low at 66.1%. Therefore, the current treatment goal for cSLE is to ensure that they can perform normal daily activities throughout their lives by preventing the occurrence and/or progression of organ damage.
For this purpose, appropriate treatments and evaluations are required according to the severity and risk of organ damage; however, there are no established guidelines for cSLE. Therefore, the Pediatric Rheumatology Association of Japan and the Pediatric Rheumatology Subcommittee in the Japan College of Rheumatology developed a comprehensive guidance for clinical practice based on cSLE-related data collected from Japanese national surveys and relevant articles from both domestic and international sources. However, due to the lack of indications for defined and objective evidence quality levels, this guidance should be used on the basis of the judgement of the attending physicians for individual patients.

ABSTRACT

Objectives
To evaluate joint orientation angles of the coronal plane in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in comparison with osteoarthritis (OA).

Methods
In total, 72 patients with RA (90 knees) and 76 patients with OA (90 knees) who underwent total knee arthroplasty were enrolled. The hip–knee–ankle (HKA) angle, mechanical lateral distal femoral angle (mLDFA), mechanical medial proximal tibial angle (mMPTA), and joint line convergence angle (JLCA) were measured on preoperative long-leg radiographs in the standing position. Student’s t-test was used to assess differences in radiographic data between patients with RA and OA.

Results
In knees with RA and OA, the mean HKA was −3.4 ± 9.4° and −10.6 ± 8.0°, the mean mLDFA was 86.6 ± 3.7° and 88.2 ± 2.7°, the mean mMPTA was 85.9 ± 4.0° and 84.3 ± 3.7°, and the mean JLCA was 2.7 ± 4.2° and 6.8 ± 4.1°. All parameters in the knees with RA were more valgus than those with OA.

Conclusions
Knees with RA had a great variability in joint orientation angles on the coronal plane; the whole lower limb alignment and the femur, tibia, and joint were more valgus in knees with RA than with OA.
Rational design of self-assembled RNA nanostructures for HIV-1 virus assembly blockade
Authors: Qu Na , Ying Yachen , Qin Jinshan , Chen Antony K 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Many pathological processes are driven by RNA-protein interactions, making such interactions promising targets for molecular interventions. HIV-1 assembly is one such process, in which the viral genomic RNA interacts with the viral Gag protein and serves as a scaffold to drive Gag multimerization that ultimately leads to formation of a virus particle. Here, we develop self-assembled RNA nanostructures that can inhibit HIV-1 virus assembly, achieved through hybridization of multiple artificial small RNAs with a stem–loop structure (STL) that we identify as a prominent ligand of Gag that can inhibit virus particle production via STL-Gag interactions. The resulting STL-decorated nanostructures (double and triple stem–loop structures denoted as Dumbbell and Tribell, respectively) can elicit more pronounced viral blockade than their building blocks, with the inhibition arising as a result of nanostructures interfering with Gag multimerization. These findings could open up new avenues for RNA-based therapy.
Introduction
Authors: Weir David , Desmarais Jane 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This introduction argues that even though decadence and culture are incompatible concepts, the former based on the idea of decay and the latter on the concept of growth, decadence is a type of culture in its own right, however much it may go against the grain of culture at large. This basic paradox is evident in the literature produced by such figures as Charles Baudelaire, J.-K. Huysmans, Rachilde, Arthur Symons, Oscar Wilde, and many others, all of whom drew creative energy from a sense of historical decline, philosophical pessimism, and sexual perversity. Moreover, the culture of decadence concerns not only forms of aesthetic expression such as literature and art, but also sensuous, lived experience, however self-destructive such experience might be. This “lived decadence,” moreover, was—and is—available not only to artists and writers on the margins of society but also to the economically secure and socially ascendant bourgeoisie, the beneficiaries of that very modernity so many decadents set themselves against.
The Disability Rights Movement
Authors: Scotch Richard , Sutton Kara 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the social movement advocating for disability rights, including its origins, goals, strategies, structure, and impact. The chapter’s primary focus is on the movement in the United States, although developments in other nations are also discussed. The chapter reviews the origins of the disability rights movement in the 20th century in response to stigma and discrimination associated with disabilities and the medical model of disability; addresses the movement’s advocacy strategies, as well as the social model of disability that provided the conceptual underpinning for its goals and activities; and describes how the major components of the movement, including cross-disability organization, were brought together through collaboration and the common experiences of disability culture.
Spectral Aesthetics and ecological listening in the music of Helena Tulve
Authors: Bauer Amy 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This chapter analyzes Estonian composer Helena Tulve's unique timbral process in four works: Sula (1999); L'Équinoxe de l'âme for soprano, triple harp or kannel, and string quartet (2008); Arboles lloran por luvia for voices and nyckelharpa (2006); and I am a River for chamber choir (2009). L'Équinoxe de l'âme (The Equinox of the Soul) is based on a text by the Persian mystic and philosopher Shahab al-Din Suhrawardi on the mythical Persian firebird Simurgh. Rather than portraying dissolving as in the orchestral work ice—Sula means to thaw or melt—the timbral transformations of Équinoxe evoke sparks bursting into flame, as well as a philosophical rumination on existence. The remaining vocal works similarly treat their texts with a programmatic flair that blurs the line between the materiality of the sound and its contemplative mood. Tulve's compositional approach can be considered post-spectral in its influences and attention to timbral detail. However, she is also motivated by ecological concerns, and counts herself among a small group of contemporary Estonian composers devoted to expressing this philosophy through music. Her influences meld in a music that prioritizes “slowness”: a sustained focus on spectral detail that reflects the composer's deep-rooted ecological concerns. The chapter thus draws on ideas from ecological theory, timbral analysis, and speculative aesthetics to show how Tulve's compositions express form through timbre and its expression in space, and reflect an ecological aesthetic of listening.
A Critical Introduction
Authors: Stulman Louis , Silver Edward 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This introductory chapter provides an overview of the book of Jeremiah, its historical background, distinctive literary character, language of trauma and resilience, dominant ideologies, and the state of twentieth- and twenty-first-century Jeremian scholarship. It concludes with an explanation of the goals and structure of the Handbook. Like the ancient book and the prophetic persona, the interpretation of Jeremiah has also been fractured and at times conflictual. Certain recent schools of Jeremiah scholarship explore new spaces for reading the ancient text that reconfigure, redeploy, and move beyond conventional interpretations, while others concentrate on historical issues, examining variant manuscripts and comparative Near Eastern texts. Until now, these divergent schools of thought have worked in relative isolation. This Handbook, the introductory chapter notes, seeks to bridge the gap between the current scholarly debate. It recognizes the importance of both post-historical and hermeneutic interpretive perspectives and ancient contextual approaches. It engages historical methodologies as well as literary and situated readings. This essay suggests that it is an opportune moment, within the frame of a single, field-encompassing volume, for a synthetic anthology that encourages the fruits of these disparate technical subfields to be gathered in order to nourish the field as a whole.

Jeremiah in Lamentations
Authors: Boase Elizabeth 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The prophetic figure of Jeremiah has long been associated with the book of Lamentations. The earliest known attribution of Lamentations to Jeremiah dates to the time of the Septuagint, an attribution that is repeated in other early translations and rabbinic commentary. Since the rise of critical scholarship, however, the authenticity of Jeremiah as author has been questioned, with few contemporary scholars continuing to argue that the prophet was the actual author of the Lamentations. Despite this, the prophet figure/persona continues to be identified within Lamentations, albeit in ways far removed from the direct attribution expressed in earlier periods. This chapter traces the rise and fall of Jeremiah as author of Lamentations, exploring possible reasons why the prophetic figure has been so important in the history of interpretation within Lamentations studies, with a particular focus on the way that Jeremianic authorship has contributed to the theological understanding of the book. The ever-changing understanding of the relationship of Jeremiah with Lamentations has been influenced by the interpretive lenses and needs of successive communities, a trend which will continue into the future as new methods and approaches emerge.
Jeremiah and Homiletics
Authors: Sharp Carolyn J. 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This chapter explores homiletical possibilities afforded by the book of Jeremiah to the Christian preacher. The earliest layers of contextualization are examined through consideration of preaching on Jeremiah in the early Church, focusing on sermons of Origen. In discussing the early modern period, the chapter attends to the preaching of Reformers Martin Luther and John Calvin. Finally, the chapter reflects on homiletical moves made by contemporary preachers in a variety of ecclesial contexts from the nineteenth century to the present, including Charles Spurgeon and Walter Brueggemann. Noteworthy in the homiletical reception of Jeremiah are four passages: first, the commissioning of Jeremiah (1:4–10), which foregrounds agonistic dimensions of prophetic witness and has served as a focus in liturgies of ordination; second, the lament, “Is there no balm in Gilead?” (8:22), transformed in a renowned African American spiritual into the asseveration that “there is a balm in Gilead,” namely, Jesus; third, Jeremiah’s depiction of the divine word as irresistible, “like a burning fire shut up in my bones” (20:9); and fourth, the promise of the new covenant that God will inscribe on the heart (31:31–34).
Playing with Death
Authors: Davidson Steed Vernyl 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The task of identifying a single rationale for the violence on display in the book of Jeremiah may end with a coherent answer, but perhaps not a satisfactory one. That violence serves a reforming purpose seems satisfactory to theological readers in search of theodicy, as well trauma analyses that find the violence problematic but understandable. Other interpreters of Jeremiah, such as feminists and postcolonialists, struggle with the gratuitous and seemingly arbitrary nature of the violence. While not an attempt to rationalize the violence, this chapter engages the arbitrariness of the violence through a systematic analysis of four targets of violence in the book of Jeremiah: the prophet, the feminized Israel/Judah as adulterous wife, foreign nations, and the earth. By distinguishing these separate targets, the chapter examines how gender, sexuality, nationality, and speciesism intersect in the enactment of the rhetorical violence in the book. These delineations also set the stage for a central claim of the chapter, that of exceptional violence. Building upon Carl Schmidt’s notion that exceptional violence stems from exceptional vulnerability that requires the state of exception to use unrestrained violence, the chapter considers how the violence as narrated in Jeremiah not only performs this exceptionalism but also has exceptions. By examining who/what dies from the violence in the book, the chapter points out how the politics of death is played out upon different targets.
The Last Stage of the Literary History of the Book of Jeremiah
Authors: Tov Emanuel 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Presumably the book of Jeremiah underwent several editorial stages for which there is no evidence in the textual witnesses. At the same time, the last stage of the literary growth of that book is reflected in the elements that the Masoretic Text (MT) has in excess of the LXX and the Qumran scrolls 4QJerb,d. These differences are not scribal, but editorial, so that the latter have been named “edition I” and MT “edition II,” with the understanding that edition II was based on a literary form like edition I. This chapter describes the many views that have been expressed in the post-Qumran era on the content, tendencies, and dating of these two editions. It points out that the assumption of “layers” may be more appropriate than “editions.” In the wake of the research of Bogaert, this paper adds an excursus on the apocryphal book of Baruch that was surprisingly appended to the short, not the long, text of Jeremiah. Presumably, when edition I was expanded with Baruch, edition II was already in existence, but maybe at a different place or in a different environment. In any event, we do not know why Baruch was appended to the short and not the long edition.
The Development of Hebrew and the Book of Jeremiah
Authors: Hornkohl Aaron D. 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This chapter is a linguistic examination of the book of Jeremiah which contributes to understanding both the development of ancient Hebrew and the place of the book in that history. Since the inception of critical study of the Hebrew Bible, scholars have engaged in the linguistic periodization of its constituent texts. According to the regnant paradigm, Biblical Hebrew divides into pre-exilic Classical Biblical Hebrew (CBH) and post-exilic Late Biblical Hebrew (LBH). Scholars employ control samples and rigorous methods to identify linguistic features characteristic of particular chronolects and to periodize texts based on concentrations of characteristic features, all the while taking into account the “noise” caused by other sources of linguistic diversity, textual fluidity, and literary development. The present chapter focuses on linguistic diachrony and the book of Jeremiah. It examines where the book fits into the history of ancient Hebrew—arguing that it represents a transitional Hebrew between CBH and LBH; how diachronic sensitivity supports or contradicts theories concerning the book’s formation and development (including the theory of short and long versions and other notions of a composite text); and how the awareness of chronolects can contribute to the exegesis of interpretive cruxes.
Language Variation in the Book of Jeremiah and Its Cultural and Social Background
Authors: Polak Frank H. 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Syntactic-stylistic analysis of the linguistic variation in the book of Jeremiah points to the cultural/sociohistorical context of the different text groups. The poignant, emotional style of Jeremianic poetry (Mowinckel’s A corpus) is marked by the often extremely high frequency of short clauses, and the low incidence of subordinate clauses and noun groups (similarly in most texts in Jeremiah 30–31; 46–51). These features characterize the “lean, brisk style” of spontaneous spoken discourse/oral literature. Noun groups and subordinate clauses are highly frequent in the narrative corpus (B) and parenetic prose (C), whereas short clauses are far less frequent, as characteristic of the “intricate, elaborate style” of written texts. Where these corpora reflect the scribal desk, corpus A is close to the oral arena. Detailed analysis shows, however, that all corpora are open-ended. These considerations suggest an initial oral-written symbiosis in the prophetic performance and the commission to writing of the prophetic utterances. In the scribal milieu of the Babylonian/Persian era, a new class of religious formulators took up the prophetic tradition and reformulated it in the complex style characteristic of the scribal desk.
The Jeremian Oracles against the Nations
Authors: Graybill Rhiannon 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
A substantial portion of the book of Jeremiah consists of the Oracles against the Nations (OAN), a common prophetic genre of threats and predictions of violence directed at foreign nations. In Jeremiah, the OAN are significantly different in the Masoretic (Hebrew) and Septuagint (Greek) texts, including their length, their internal order, and their location in the book. While the function of the OAN is unclear, their literary character is undeniable. Primarily poetry, they present a dense collection of evocative images of violence and destruction. Sound, gender, and the “nation” are all themes of interest in the OAN. The OAN are a crucial part of the book of Jeremiah as a whole.
The Historical Jeremiah
Authors: Leuchter Mark 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Jeremiah scholars are generally cautious in drawing assumptions about the historical reliability of the material found in the book of Jeremiah. Yet the sources within the book possess literary patterns that provide oblique information to create a broad-stroke outline of what was known and remembered about the prophet himself. Approached with an eye to cultural memory, three features of the Book of Jeremiah provide ways to recover some dimensions of the historical prophet: the rhetorical shape of chapters 1–25 (in both the MT and LXX traditions), the book’s points of contact between the Levites and the Deuteronomistic tradition, and the unique characterization of scribes and scribalism within the book in relation to oracles ascribed to Jeremiah. These avenues of inquiry enable us to cautiously arrive at a tentative understanding of the Jeremiah of history.
