Abstract
We present optical and near-IR Integral Field Unit (IFU) and ALMA band 6 observations of the nearby dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) Mrk 463. At a distance of 210 Mpc, and a nuclear separation of ∼4 kpc, Mrk 463 is an excellent laboratory to study the gas dynamics, star formation processes and supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion in a late-stage gas-rich major galaxy merger. The IFU observations reveal a complex morphology, including tidal tails, star-forming clumps, and emission-line regions. The optical data, which map the full extent of the merger, show evidence for a biconical outflow and material outflowing at >600 km s−1, both associated with the Mrk 463E nucleus, along with large-scale gradients likely related to the ongoing galaxy merger. We further find an emission-line region ∼11 kpc south of Mrk 463E that is consistent with photoionization by an AGN. Compared to the current AGN luminosity, the energy budget of the cloud implies a luminosity drop in Mrk 463E by a factor of 3–20 over the last 40,000 years. The ALMA observations of 12CO(2–1) and adjacent 1 mm continuum reveal the presence of ∼109
M
☉ in molecular gas in the system. The molecular gas shows velocity gradients of ∼800 km s−1 and ∼400 km s−1 around the Mrk 463E and 463W nuclei, respectively. We conclude that, in this system, the infall of ∼100s M
⊙ yr−1 of molecular gas is in rough balance with the removal of ionized gas by a biconical outflow being fueled by a relatively small, <0.01% of accretion onto each SMBH.
ChromaStarPy: A Stellar Atmosphere and Spectrum Modeling and Visualization Lab in Python
Authors: Short C. Ian , Bayer Jason H. T. , Burns Lindsey M. 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
We announce ChromaStarPy, an integrated general stellar atmospheric modeling and spectrum synthesis code written entirely in python V. 3. ChromaStarPy is a direct port of the ChromaStarServer (CSServ) Java modeling code described in earlier papers in this series, and many of the associated JavaScript (JS) post-processing procedures have been ported and incorporated into CSPy so that students have access to ready-made data products. A python integrated development environment (IDE) allows a student in a more advanced course to experiment with the code and to graphically visualize intermediate and final results, ad hoc, as they are running it. CSPy allows students and researchers to compare modeled to observed spectra in the same IDE in which they are processing observational data, while having complete control over the stellar parameters affecting the synthetic spectra. We also take the opportunity to describe improvements that have been made to the related codes, ChromaStar (CS), CSServ, and ChromaStarDB (CSDB), that, where relevant, have also been incorporated into CSPy. The application may be found at the home page of the OpenStars project: http://www.ap.smu.ca/OpenStars/.
Prier pour les âmes du Purgatoire à Naples. La parole donnée, au-delà du donnant-donnant
Authors: Villain-Carapella Florian 
Published: February 2018

Durant trois siècles, des Napolitaines des quartiers pauvres ont consacré un culte aux crânes de défunts anonymes des épidémies et des guerres. Ces pratiques discrètes et souterraines ont toujours été considérées comme relevant d’une superstition construite sur de prétendus rapports contractuels d’échange de bons services entre les dévotes et les âmes en peine auxquelles elles auraient apporté leurs suffrages par la prière, de façon exactement symétrique aux divers cultes propitiatoires. Pour répondre à ces lectures échangistes qui privilégient le rapport interindividuel et utilitaire, nous voudrions ici tenter de déceler le sens profond de cette dévotion que Michel Vovelle a lui-même qualifiée d’« exception dans l’exception ». Plutôt que motivés par le souci du donnant-donnant, nous voudrions montrer que les paroles incantatoires ainsi que les gestes ritualisés dans lesquels ce culte des âmes du Purgatoire s’incarne offrent en fait les conditions traditionnelles de la constitution d’une forme sociale à travers laquelle ces femmes ont pu se solidariser.
Neuf bœufs et des feuilles innombrables. Guerre, paix et parole donnée dans l’ Iliade (VI, 119-236)
Authors: Présumey Pierre 
Published: February 2018

Le Chant VI de l’ Iliade présente une scène surprenante de reconnaissance et d’échange qui mérite d’être examinée de près. Le Grec Diomède et le Lycien Glaucos, allié des Troyens, face à face sur leur char et prêts pour le combat mortel caractéristique de l’épopée, vont décliner tour à tour leur identité. Passant de la menace au dialogue, ils s’appuient sur un vieil accord d’hospitalité, conclu autrefois entre leurs grands-pères, pour sceller à leur tour un nouvel accord d’amitié séparée, garanti par l’échange de leur armement. Le commentaire final du poète vient une fois encore démontrer que l’héroïsme homérique n’est jamais donné simplement comme un exemple à reproduire, mais toujours comme une valeur à questionner.
Les crayons de la morale : alcool et caricature
Authors: Nourrisson Didier 
Published: February 2018

La caricature est apparue au XVIème siècle comme contrepoint du beau selon les canons de la Renaissance. L'image du buveur a été aussitôt récupérée comme formulation idéale de la difformité. Et depuis lors, l'un des éléments du comique iconique, du tableau à la B.D. ou à la carte postale, emprunte régulièrement au trop boire. Le XIXème siècle voit une utilisation nouvelle de la « pocharderie » dans l'art. Siècle d'une alcoolisation grandissante, il fait jouer à l'alcool un rôle important dans la satire des moeurs. Siècle de la démocratisation du vote, il recourt à la boisson et aux images de l'alcool pour disqualifier l'adversaire politique. Enfin, siècle de la remise en ordre des comportements « déviants » par le développement de l'hygiénisme, il dénonce les pratiques alcooliques et stigmatise les buveurs, recourant pour cela aux meilleurs dessinateurs du temps. Le ridicule du comportement d'alcoolisation, désormais qualifié d'alcoolisme, est mis en valeur par la caricature et sert la cause – ô combien morale – de l'antialcoolisme.
Viabilità e utilizzo del territorio. Il suburbio sud-orientale di Ostia alla luce dei recenti rinvenimenti archeologici
Authors: Pannuzi Simona 
Published: February 2018

Questo contributo intende analizzare le modalità di uso del territorio ed il problema della viabilità antica nell’area suburbana sud-orientale della città romana di Ostia, alla luce dei recenti rinvenimenti archeologici. Il suburbio ostiense risultava condizionato da una serie di elementi naturali : il mare ad ovest, lo Stagno ad est ed il corso fluviale con il meandro a nord. In età imperiale in questo territorio possono individuarsi differenti settori in relazione al loro utilizzo, anche a causa dei vincoli idrogeologici. In particolare, possono distinguersi una vasta area utilizzata a scopo funerario nella zona sud-orientale e lungo il lato meridionale dell’antica via Ostiense ed un’area invece rivolta alle attività commerciali presso il meandro del Tevere, mentre lungo le due sponde del lungo Stagno si praticavano attività agricole ed artigianali, anche connesse con strutture residenziali, condizionate dalla sistemazione del terreno paludoso con caratteristiche opere di bonifica idraulica con anfore.
Celebrazioni ad Ostia: la scelta del giorno per le dediche pubbliche, le inaugurazioni e altri eventi collettivi
Authors: Bruun Christer 
Published: February 2018

L’articolo dimostra che nelle iscrizioni di Ostia le dediche precisamente datate sono proporzionalmente più frequenti che in qualunque altra città romana; il risultato costituisce una novità. La maggior parte delle dediche cade nei giorni delle Kalendae, degli Idus, e nei giorni che venivano celebrati come dies natalis dell’imperatore regnante o di qualche suo erede. Quindi le inagurazioni di edifici e di altri monumenti potevano contare su un grande interesse di pubblico, e gli eventi dedicatori svolgevano un’importante funzione per quanto riguarda la mobilitazione della popolazione ; in pari tempo la scelta del giorno dava dimostrazione del favore degli Ostiensi nei confronti del governo imperiale.

Abstract. The eruption of Mt. Tambora in 1815 was the largest volcanic eruption of the past 500 years. The eruption had significant climatic impacts, leading to the 1816 year without a summer, and remains a valuable event from which to understand the climatic effects of large stratospheric volcanic sulfur dioxide injections. The eruption also resulted in one of the strongest and most easily identifiable volcanic sulfate signals in polar ice cores, which are widely used to reconstruct the timing and atmospheric sulfate loading of past eruptions. As part of the Model Intercomparison Project on the climatic response to Volcanic forcing (VolMIP), five state-of-the-art global aerosol models simulated this eruption. We analyse both simulated background (no Tambora) and volcanic (with Tambora) sulfate deposition to polar regions and compare to ice core records. The models simulate overall similar patterns of background sulfate deposition, although there are differences in regional details and magnitude. However, the volcanic sulfate deposition varies considerably between the models with differences in timing, spatial pattern and magnitude. Mean simulated deposited sulfate on Antarctica ranges from 19 to 264 kg km−2 and on Greenland from 31 to 194 kg km−2, as compared to the mean ice-core-derived estimates of roughly 50 kg km−2 for both Greenland and Antarctica. The ratio of the hemispheric atmospheric sulfate aerosol burden after the eruption to the average ice sheet deposited sulfate varies between models by up to a factor of 15. Sources of this inter-model variability include differences in both the formation and the transport of sulfate aerosol. Our results suggest that deriving relationships between sulfate deposited on ice sheets and atmospheric sulfate burdens from model simulations may be associated with greater uncertainties than previously thought.
Technical note: Comparison of methane ebullition modelling approaches used in terrestrial wetland models
Authors: Peltola Olli , Raivonen Maarit , Li Xuefei , Vesala Timo 
Published: February 2018

Abstract. Emission via bubbling, i.e. ebullition, is one of the main methane (CH4) emission pathways from wetlands to the atmosphere. Direct measurement of gas bubble formation, growth and release in the peat–water matrix is challenging and in consequence these processes are relatively unknown and are coarsely represented in current wetland CH4 emission models. In this study we aimed to evaluate three ebullition modelling approaches and their effect on model performance. This was achieved by implementing the three approaches in one process-based CH4 emission model. All the approaches were based on some kind of threshold: either on CH4 pore water concentration (ECT), pressure (EPT) or free-phase gas volume (EBG) threshold. The model was run using 4 years of data from a boreal sedge fen and the results were compared with eddy covariance measurements of CH4 fluxes.Modelled annual CH4 emissions were largely unaffected by the different ebullition modelling approaches; however, temporal variability in CH4 emissions varied an order of magnitude between the approaches. Hence the ebullition modelling approach drives the temporal variability in modelled CH4 emissions and therefore significantly impacts, for instance, high-frequency (daily scale) model comparison and calibration against measurements. The modelling approach based on the most recent knowledge of the ebullition process (volume threshold, EBG) agreed the best with the measured fluxes (R2 = 0.63) and hence produced the most reasonable results, although there was a scale mismatch between the measurements (ecosystem scale with heterogeneous ebullition locations) and model results (single horizontally homogeneous peat column). The approach should be favoured over the two other more widely used ebullition modelling approaches and researchers are encouraged to implement it into their CH4 emission models.
Una mirada a la competitividad global: producción de la industria electrónica
Authors: Ortega Jimenez César H. , Garrido Vega Pedro , Domínguez Machuca José Antonio 
Published: February 2018

Se estudian dos de los principales programas de producción: Estrategia de producción (por sus siglas en inglés PS) y gestión de tecnología (por sus siglas en inglés TM) de las siguientes dos formas: 1) Testeando y validando los efectos de ajuste de la vinculación entre prácticas de dichos programas; y (2) Explorando el papel que juega el entorno de las fábricas como un inhibidor de ajuste entre PS y TM. El artículo se fundamenta en el análisis estadístico de encuestas, que involucra 88 fábricas de la industria de electrónica, distribuidas entre Alemania, Austria, Canadá, Corea del Sur, España, Estados Unidos, Finlandia, Italia, Japón y Suecia. Con ello, el estudio prueba la existencia del ajuste entre las prácticas de PS y las de TM. Para ello, se proveen argumentaciones analíticas y empíricas, mostrando que la PS y la TM refuerzan mutuamente sus prácticas para lograr una mayor competitividad global, medida por el rendimiento de operaciones. Esto parece indicar que la implementación común de las prácticas de producción estudiadas a través de la industria de la electrónica es importante en los entornos en los cuales operan las fábricas. El artículo sugiere un patrón de mejora donde la PS y la TM tienen que ser implementados mano a mano para lograr una mejor ventaja de su eficacia. Las articulaciones de prácticas de producción proveen una base sobre el cual el ajuste se origina, extendiendo sus beneficios a través de la organización. La investigación representa un intento de operacionalizar y validar empíricamente las articulaciones entre prácticas de producción en un entorno industrial internacional. Además, el artículo provee recomendaciones originales para los profesionales y decisores en las fábricas, de cómo lograr lo mejor de la implementación de la PS y la TM en la industria de la electrónica internacional.

Authors: Li Mu 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
This article investigates the grave markers and associated mortuary rituals of Newfoundland’s Chinese immigrants, especially those who came before 1949, in order to understand them in the religious context of Newfoundland. The goals of this article are, firstly, to demonstrate emergent creolized diasporic identity and culture by presenting how early Chinese immigrants used Christianity to gradually gain social acceptance and, secondly, to challenge the popular idea that conversion by Chinese immigrants was only strategic.
History of the Three Major Academic Libraries in Partitioned Poland
Authors: Dżurak Ewa 
Published: February 2018

Abstract
This article presents an outline of the history of the three academic libraries in Poland: the Warsaw University Library in Warsaw, the Jagiellonian Library in Kraków, and the Adam Mickiewicz University Library in Poznań during the second part of the nineteenth century. This was the period of the Partitions of Poland, during which the Polish state, divided between Russia, Austria, and Prussia, disappeared from the map of Europe. The politics of the three partitioning powers towards Poles differed greatly, but their goal was the total assimilation of Polish people and incorporation of all seized territories into their own countries. Libraries as depositories of Polish language, Polish history, and Polish culture became crucial institutions in the struggle for the survival of Polish identity. Their history reflects the difficult negotiations between the politics of the partitioners towards Poles and different attitudes and ideas among Poles themselves towards the preservation of Polish heritage and the restoration of the Polish state. The present state of those libraries, especially the scope of their collections, is a direct result of historical conditions that shaped them.
Through the Looking Glass: Sally Mann and Wonderland
Authors: Savage Shari L. 
Published: February 2018

AbstractUsing narrative inquiry, I revisit and re-engage with former scholarship as a way to wrestle with new understandings regarding artistic intent, art making as process, and continuing controversies over representations of children. Photographer Sally Mann’s remarkably candid memoir Hold Still (2015) inspired me to look back, re-evaluate, and reconsider my research. Loosening my past arguments, letting go of my former stance, I explore the inherent duality of her roles (mother/artist), while acknowledging Mann’s transparency and illuminating accounts of dealing with memory. Lewis Carroll’s Victorian era photography, Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita (1958), and Mann’s body of work collectively center on childhood innocence—each perhaps unknowingly referent to the other’s artistic production in both words and images. I unravel and pull at such threads, revealing the patterns and themes that resonate throughout Mann’s aesthetically prescient wonderland. In addition, arts-based collages explore intertextual and visual similarities between Carroll’s, Nabokov’s, and Mann’s narratives. Ultimately, I offer an apology for my harsh judgment of Mann’s passionate pursuit to capture her version of wonderland through an antique 8 × 10 in. looking glass.
Body mass index influences the plasma glucose concentration during iatrogenic hypoglycemia in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a cross-sectional study

Published: February 2018

Background
Hypoglycemia occurs in an appreciable number of individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who are receiving glycemic therapy. Iatrogenic hypoglycemia induces not only complications but also a substantial medical expense. Intervention for relevant risk factors may help avert severe hypoglycemia and enhance quality of life in at-risk individuals. This study investigates the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and plasma glucose concentration during iatrogenic hypoglycemia in people with T2DM.

Methods
Enrollment criteria were people above 20 years of age, with existing diagnosis of T2DM, a documented plasma glucose level ≤70 mg/dL, and acute cognitive impairment requiring hospitalization. Participants were classified into two groups according to their BMI. Specifically, lower BMI subgroup denotes individuals whose BMI fall within lower half of the study population, and vice versa. Plasma glucose concentration, length of hospital stay, and serum electrolyte level at hospitalization were compared between these BMI subgroups. Moreover, multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify covariates associated with plasma glucose level during iatrogenic hypoglycemia.

Results
This study enrolled 107 participants for whom 54 were assigned to a higher BMI subgroup and the remainder to a lower BMI subgroup. People with lower BMI harbored substantially reduced plasma glucose concentration during iatrogenic hypoglycemia compared to those with higher BMI (30.1 ± 9.6 mg/dL vs. 38.4 ± 12.3 mg/dL, P < 0.001). Nonetheless, the length of stay (6.2 ± 4.6 days vs. 5.7 ± 4.0 days, P = 0.77) and serum potassium level (3.7 ± 0.9 meq/L vs. 3.9 ± 0.8 meq/L, P = 0.14) were comparable between subgroups. Multivariate regression analysis identified BMI as a determinant of plasma glucose concentration in diabetic individuals with iatrogenic hypoglycemia (β coefficient: 0.72, P = 0.008).

Discussion
In individuals with T2DM who experience severe iatrogenic hypoglycemia, BMI influences the plasma glucose level at hospitalization. People with lower BMI harbored appreciably reduced plasma glucose concentration relative to their higher BMI counterparts. In lower weight people, therefore, appropriate dosing of antidiabetic medications, frequent self-monitoring of blood glucose level and adequate nutritional support may help avert more severe hypoglycemia. Overall, BMI potentially influences the severity of iatrogenic hypoglycemia in people with T2DM.
Reconstructing Plate Boundaries in the Jurassic Neo‐Tethys From the East and West Vardar Ophiolites (Greece and Serbia)
Authors: Maffione Marco , van Hinsbergen Douwe J. J. 
Published: February 2018

AbstractJurassic subduction initiation in the Neo‐Tethys Ocean eventually led to the collision of the Adria‐Africa and Eurasia continents and the formation of an ~6,000 km long Alpine orogen spanning from Iberia to Iran. Reconstructing the location and geometry of the plate boundaries of the now disappeared Neo‐Tethys during the initial moments of its closure is instrumental to perform more realistic plate reconstructions of this region, of ancient ocean basins in general, and on the process of subduction initiation. Neo‐Tethyan relics are preserved in an ophiolite belt distributed above the Dinaric‐Hellenic fold‐thrust belt. Here we provide the first quantitative constraints on the geometry of the spreading ridges and trenches active in the Jurassic Neo‐Tethys using a paleomagnetically based net tectonic rotation analysis of sheeted dykes and dykes from the West and East Vardar Ophiolites of Serbia (Maljen and Ibar) and Greece (Othris, Pindos, Vourinos, and Guevgueli). Based on our results and existing geological evidence, we show that initial Middle Jurassic (~175 Ma) closure of the western Neo‐Tethys was accommodated at a N‐S trending, west dipping subduction zone initiated near and parallel to the spreading ridge. The West Vardar Ophiolites formed in the forearc parallel to this new trench. Simultaneously, the East Vardar Ophiolites formed above a second N‐S to NW‐SE trending subduction zone located close to the European passive margin. We tentatively propose that this second subduction zone had been active since at least the Middle Triassic, simultaneously accommodating the closure of the Paleo‐Tethys and the back‐arc opening of Neo‐Tethys.

Published: February 2018

AbstractAnisotropic microstructures are widely used by being cleverly designed to achieve important functions. Mammals' respiratory tract is filled with dense cilia that rhythmically swing back and forth in a unidirectional wave to propel mucus and harmful substances out of the lung through larynx. Inspired by the ciliary structure and motion mechanism of the respiratory tract systems, a viscoelastic microsphere transporting strategy based on integration of airway cilium‐like structure and magnetically responsive flexible conical arrays is demonstrated. Under external magnetic fields, the viscoelastic microspheres can be directionally and continuously transported alongside the swing of the cilia‐like arrays that contain magnetic particles. This work provides a promising route for the design of advanced medical applications in directional transport of microspheres, drug delivery systems, ciliary dyskinesia treating, and self‐cleaning without liquid.
