description: MONDian dark matter (MDM) is a new form of dark matter quantum that naturally accounts for Milgrom's scaling, usually associated with modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND), and theoretically behaves like cold dark matter (CDM) at cluster and cosmic scales. In this paper, we provide the first observational test of MDM by fitting rotation curves to a sample of 30 local spiral galaxies (z approximately 0.003). For comparison, we also fit the galactic rotation curves using MOND, and CDM. We find that all three models fit the data well. The rotation curves predicted by MDM and MOND are virtually indistinguishable over the range of observed radii (~1 to 30 kpc). The best-fit MDM and CDM density profiles are compared. We also compare with MDM the dark matter density profiles arising from MOND if Milgrom's formula is interpreted as Newtonian gravity with an extra source term instead of as a modification of inertia. We find that discrepancies between MDM and MOND will occur near the center of a typical spiral galaxy. In these regions, instead of continuing to rise sharply, the MDM mass density turns over and drops as we approach the center of the galaxy. Our results show that MDM, which restricts the nature of the dark matter quantum by accounting for Milgrom's scaling, accurately reproduces observed rotation curves.

description: We readdress the question of whether any universal upper bound exists on the square mass m^2 of the lightest scalar around a supersymmetry breaking vacuum in generic N=2 gauged supergravity theories for a given gravitino mass m_3/2 and cosmological constant V. We review the known bounds which apply to theories with restricted matter content from a new perspective. We then extend these results to theories with both hyper and vector multiplets and a gauging involving only one generator, for which we show that such a bound exists for both V>0 and V<0. We finally argue that there is no bound for the same theories with a gauging involving two or more generators. These results imply that in N=2 supergravity theories metastable de Sitter vacua with V<>m^2_3/2 can also arise when a single isometry is gauged.

description: For the first time, the running of the running of the spectral index $β_s$ has been measured by Planck. This parameter is crucial for dark matter Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) formation. We study the PBHs formation in inflation potentials with superimposed periodic oscillations. We show that the value of $β_s$ suggested by the recent cosmic microwave background data is easily explained in these models. As a by-product, we also show that the nonproduction of (long--lived) PBHs puts a stronger upper bound on $β_s$.

Core Crimes and the Characterization of Mai-Kadra Atrocities in Ethiopia
Creators: name: Messele, Bereket Eshetu
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2024

description: Atrocity crimes have become a regular incident over the past four years in Ethiopia. It worsened especially after the outbreak of the war between the Federal Government and Tigray Region on November 4, 2020. The Mai-Kadra incident was one of such situations where heinous mass killing was committed against civilians on November 9, 2020, shortly after the outbreak of the war. Different bodies reported the atrocities committed during the incident and tried to characterise the situation in different ways. This article characterises the material facts of the Mai-Kadra incident in light of International Criminal Law rules, case law, and jurisprudence. A doctrinal research methodology is employed to gather data from reliable reports and human right organisations. Accordingly, the study uncovers the potential characterization of the Mai-Kadra incident as ‘crimes against humanity’ and ‘war crimes’. It is however less likely that the incident qualifies as ‘genocide’ mainly because of the difficulty to infer special genocidal intent from the circumstances of the case.

description: The scale of the decarbonisation challenge to meet the Paris Agreement is underplayed in the public arena. It will require precipitous emissions reductions within 40 years and a new carbon sink on the scale of the ocean sink. Even then, the world is extremely likely to overshoot. A catastrophic failure of policy, for example, waiting another decade for transformative policy and full commitments to fossil-free economies, will have irreversible and deleterious repercussions for humanity’s remaining time on Earth. Only a global zero carbon roadmap will put the world on a course to phase-out greenhouse gas emissions and create the essential carbon sinks for Earth-system stability, without which, world prosperity is not possible.

133 Socio-economic and Human Rights Implications of Development-Induced Displacement in Addis Ababa
Creators: name: Meshesha, Manaye Zegeye
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2024

description: This article evaluates the socio-economic and human rights implications of Development-induced Displacement (DID) in the City of Addis Ababa. Development- induced Displacement is a broad concept and policy framework used by governments to justify the displacement of people in meeting their development activities. A redevelopment program is one of the common policy justifications of DID in urban settings to improve the living and working conditions of people. In principle, displacement of people from their homes, land, and community is not allowed unless a compulsory public interest requires such moves. If displacement becomes unavoidable, the rights and benefits of those displaced shall be regulated by adequate legal framework guaranteeing due process and effective remedy. Within the human rights framework of the right to development, the central subject, ultimate participant, and beneficiary are the people who are called to leave their land, home, and community. In light of these principles and legal framworks, this article examines the processes and outcomes of a redevelopment programms in three sites of Addis Ababa. The evidences from the qualitative investigation revealed that the redevelopment program was not backed by an adequate legal framework, the practices are incompatible with international human rights standards and principles cited for unavoidable DID. Particularly, the program did not recognize those individuals whose livelihoods have been affected by the program as the central subject, ultimate participants, and beneficiaries of its process and outcomes. , At worst, the program becomes a cause for human rights violations, destabilizes social systems, and creates impoverishment risks in the lives of displaced urban poor. The article recommends policy, legal, and practical reform to alleviate further socio-economic impacts and human rights abuses sponsored in the name of development.

description: Cadmium (Cd) is an immunotoxic metal frequently found in the environment. The in vitro study undertaken here evaluated the immunotoxic effects of Cd in isolated human peripheral blood monocytes (hPBM). The results of the studies of exposures to varying doses of Cd (0, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 µM, as cadmium dichloride [CdCl2]) for 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hr showed the test agent was cytotoxic to the cells in time- and concentration-related manners. Thereafter, using only those doses found to not cause extreme cell lethality a 48-hr period, the impact of 0.1 or 1 µM CdCl2 on the cells was evaluated. Functionally, CdCl2 treatment led to time- and concentration-related decreases in hPBM phagocytic activities as well as in the ability of the cells to form/release cytokines (including tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α and interleukin [IL]-6 and −8). The CdCl2 also led to significantly decreased ATP production (in part, via inhibition of mitochondrial complexes I and III) as well as in mitochondrial membrane potentials (MMP) and oxygen consumption rates (OCR; associated with parallel increases in cell lactate production) in the cells. In addition, CdCl2 treatment resulted in significant increases in mitochondrial membrane fluidity (MMF) and cell unsaturated fatty acid content. Based on the results here, one might conclude that some of the effects that arose during the CdCl2-induced dysfunction of the isolated hPBM (i.e. changes phagocytic activity, cytokine formation/secretion) could have evolved secondary to CdCl2-induced disruptions of hPBM cell bioenergetics – an effect that itself was a culmination of an overall toxicity from CdCl2 upon the mitochondria within these cells.
Modelling Baryon Acoustic Oscillations with Perturbation Theory and Stochastic Halo Biasing

description: In this work we investigate the generation of mock halo catalogues based on perturbation theory and nonlinear stochastic biasing with the novel PATCHY-code. In particular, we use Augmented Lagrangian Perturbation Theory (ALPT) to generate a dark matter density field on a mesh starting from Gaussian fluctuations and to compute the peculiar velocity field. ALPT is based on a combination of second order LPT (2LPT) on large scales and the spherical collapse model on smaller scales. We account for the systematic deviation of perturbative approaches from N-body simulations together with halo biasing adopting an exponential bias model. We then account for stochastic biasing by defining three regimes: a low, an intermediate and a high density regime, using a Poisson distribution in the intermediate regime and the negative binomial distribution to model over-dispersion in the high density regime. Since we focus in this study on massive halos, we suppress the generation of halos in the low density regime. The various nonlinear and stochastic biasing parameters, and density thresholds (five) are calibrated with the large BigMultiDark N-body simulation to match the power spectrum of the corresponding halo population. Our mock catalogues show power spectra, both in real- and redshift-space, which are compatible with N-body simulations within about 2% up to k ~ 1 h Mpc^-1 at z = 0.577 for a sample of halos with the typical BOSS CMASS galaxy number density. The corresponding correlation functions are compatible down to a few Mpc. We also find that neglecting over-dispersion in high density regions produces power spectra with deviations of 10% at k ~ 0.4 h Mpc^-1. These results indicate the need to account for an accurate statistical description of the galaxy clustering for precise studies of large-scale surveys.

description: We report on the creation of a degenerate dipolar Fermi gas of erbium atoms. We force evaporative cooling in a fully spin-polarized sample down to temperatures as low as 0.2 times the Fermi temperature. The strong magnetic dipole-dipole interaction enables elastic collisions between identical fermions even in the zero-energy limit. The measured elastic scattering cross section agrees well with the predictions from dipolar scattering theory, which follow a universal scaling law depending only on the dipole moment and on the atomic mass. Our approach to quantum degeneracy proceeds with very high cooling efficiency and provides large atomic densities, and it may be extended to various dipolar systems.

description: Safety-critical systems are systems in which failure may lead to serious harm for humans or the environment. Due to the nature of these systems, there exist regulatory standards that recommend a set of safety mechanisms that should be included in these systems, e.g., IEC 61508. However, these standards offer little to no implementation assistance for these mechanisms. This thesis provides such development assistance, by proposing an approach for the automatic generation of safety mechanisms via Model-Driven Development (MDD). Such an automation of previously manual activities has been known to increase developer productivity and to reduce the number of bugs in the implementation. In the context of safety-critical systems, the latter also means an improvement in safety. The approach introduces a novel way to define safety requirements as structured sentences. This structure allows for the automatic parsing of these requirements in order to subsequently generate software-implemented safety mechanisms, as well as to initially configure hardware-implemented safety mechanisms. The generation approach for software-implemented safety mechanisms uses Unified Modeling Language (UML) stereotypes to represent these mechanisms in the application model. Automated model-to-model transformations parse this model representation and realize the safety mechanisms within an intermediate model. From this intermediate model, code may be generated with simple 1:1 mappings. For the generation of hardware-implemented safety mechanisms, this thesis introduces a novel Graphical User Interface (GUI) tool for representing the configuration of hardware interfaces. A template-based code snippet repository is used for generating the code responsible for the configuration of the hardware-implemented safety mechanisms. The presented approach is validated by applying it to the development of a safety-critical fire detection application example. Furthermore, the runtime overhead of the respective transformation steps of the code generation process is measured. The results indicate a linear scalability and a runtime that is no impediment to the workflow of the developer. Furthermore, the memory and runtime overhead of the generated code is evaluated. The results show that the inclusion of a single safety mechanism for a single system element has a negligible overhead. However, the relative overhead indicates that the application of safety mechanisms should be limited to those system elements that are strictly safety-critical, as their arbitrary application to all system elements would have large effects on the runtime and memory usage of the application.
A Note on the State of Judicial Immunity in ANRS: Alarming Instances.

Year: 2024

description: An independent judiciary is an essential element of a democratic state. To guarantee this, the legislature and the executive wings of the government should have a minor impact on the judiciary and the judiciary should be equipped with special provisions allowing it to defend itself from political pressure.1 The concept of judicial immunity, which protects judges and other judicial officials from civil or criminal liability in connection with their official duties, has been recognized as an important tool to assure full-fledged judicial independence. This article aims to examine the state of procedural judicial immunity in the context of Amhara Regional State. In addition to a critical review of applicable legislations and case analysis, the author conducts unstructured interviews with purposively selected judges working in the region. The article concludes that judges in the region lack legal protection to function independently. It, in particular, underlines that fact arbitrary detention of judges by the police has negatively affected judicial independence as well as public confidence in the judiciary. Based on these findings, the article recommends to the concerned organs to assure procedural immunity for judges in the region to ensure the functional independence of the judiciary and the fair administration of justice.

Legal Space for the Creation and Operation of Fintech in Ethiopia
Creators: name: Tewabe, Metages
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2024

description: The digital economy is reshaping the global financial system, driving the transformation and development of financial technology irreversibly. Financial technology (Fintech), which combines technology and financial services, has revolutionized how businesses could run. The use of such tools has been steadily increasing in Ethiopia in the last few years and is expected to grow fast. The country's financial regulator, the National Bank of Ethiopia, is amending a decade-old Payment System law, allowing foreign investors to set up business in this country. The delicate nature of financial systems imperatively requires legal and regulatory systems to regulate Fintech creation and operations. Yet activities related to Fintech are inadequately addressed by the current law in place. The legal or regulatory response is unclear due to the novelty of the products, services, and players. Because of these fragmented and inconsistent regulatory environments, examining Ethiopia's legal landscape and regulatory frameworks for Fintech has become critical. This article, dedicated to such end, analyze the legal regime for the creation and operation of Fintech under the national bank of Ethiopia regulatory framework. The investigation employed a mixed research methodology with dominant qualitative data generating tools. The evidences from the investigation show that the Ethiopian law in place today does not include technology assessments for Fintech. Additionally, current regulations on Fintech are insufficient because they do not address consumer protection and maintaining consumer trust procedures. Accordingly, the evidences suggest that lawmakers need to create a comprehensive regulatory framework to manage Fintech and pave a way for a healthy development of financial technology.

description: An intriguing opposite sign of the CP violating asymmetry was recently measured in the tau decay modes tau -> Ks pi nutau by the BaBar collaboration, than that expected within the Standard Model. If this result is confirmed with higher precision, the observed decay rate asymmetry ACP, can only arise from some Non-Standard Interactions(NSI) occurring possibly in both the hadronic as well as in the leptonic sectors. We illustrate that while a simple charged scalar interaction cannot yield this rate asymmetry, it will be possible to generate this in the presence of a tensor interaction. Parameterizing the strength and weak phase of this NSI contribution, the observed branching ratio and the decay rate CP asymmetry for the particular mode tau -> Ks pi nutau, are used to determine the CP violating weak phase and the coupling of a tensorial interaction that can give a consistent sign and magnitude of the asymmetry.

description: Extractive Industries (EIs) are essential sources of economic and social development of a country. Current governance structures, extending from policies and laws pertaining to this sector are, in one way or another, the results of governance practices from the past. Even though the sector in Ethiopia has not grown to the expected level, the country had had a governance structure for this sector since the late 19th century. Over this stretch of time, there were governance systems regulating institutions engaged in mineral extraction activities. To fully understand the current governance structure, it is essential to analyse the sets of laws that were in place over that period. With this in view, the article evaluates the governance structure of extractive industries from the time of Emperor Menelik II to the time of the Derg. This is neither a denial of the existence of a governance framework in the pre-Menelik era nor a neglect of the developments in the governance of the sector after the Derg. Rather, this investigation is meant to draw insights from the extensive experience that could inform the current governance structure of extractive industries. By analyzing, through doctrinal legal analysis, the governance structures in place over those times, the article argues that since the inception of modern legal structures, the Ethiopian EI governance structure, though varied in depth, is informed by accumulated institutional experiences on the core issues related to EI governance. Accordingly, the paper further argues that an evaluation of the content of such historical legal documents is a first step to understanding the current institutional governance structure.

Some Remarks on Peculiar Facets of Regulatory Regime Governing Atrocity Crimes in Ethiopia.
Creators: name: Messele, Bereket
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2024

description: This piece briefly compares the FDRE Criminal Code provisions on atrocity crimes such as genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes with the rules and jurisprudence of International Criminal Law. Unlike the approach followed in the latter, the Criminal Code has expanded the category of protected groups from acts of genocide. It also provides an additional actus reus element. There is no specific atrocity offence called crimes against humanity under the Criminal Code. Ironically, the FDRE Constitution proscribes „crimes against humanity‟ as a generic term that encompasses genocide, war crimes, and other serious offences, instead of being a separate offence. Whilst the Criminal Code lists acts that constitute war crimes, they are not explicitly defined as „grave‟ breaches of the Geneva Conventions in contrast to the Statutes of the ICC, ICTY, and ICTR. Besides, the Criminal Code incorporates other acts as war crimes, the severity of which is questionable in light of the requirements under International Humanitarian Law (IHL). Moreover, unlike the ICC Rome Statute, a plan or policy as part of a large-scale commission of war crimes is not required under the Criminal Code.

Taxing Advocates’ Income in Ethiopia: An In-depth Examination of the Presumptive Tax Assessment Regime

description: This article investigates the presumptive income tax regime for advocates in Ethiopia, focusing on the characterization of advocates' income as business income, their categorization into Categories A, B, or C taxpayers, and the presumptive income tax assessment of Category C advocates. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining doctrinal analysis of legal frameworks with a qualitative examination of tax administration practices.
The article finds that Ethiopia's treatment of advocates under the business income tax schedule is consistent with international norms, simplifying tax administration. However, issues arise with categorization and presumptive tax determination. Despite the principal income tax laws base advocates‟ categorization and presumptive tax assessment on annual turnover, the laws lack clear and objective mechanisms for determining this turnover. Administratively, tax authorities have attempted various turnover estimation methods with limited success due to inappropriate approaches and flawed applications. Non-compliance among advocates further exacerbates these challenges. As a result, categorization and presumptive tax assessments are often subjective, uncertain, and prone to evasion. To address these shortcomings, the article proposes modernizing the presumptive tax regime by introducing effective turnover verification methods, requiring Category C advocates to maintain basic records of receipts with an optional standard deduction for expenses, utilizing robust third-party information frameworks for reliable data exchange, and enhancing tax authorities' capabilities to implement these reforms. These measures aim to create a more equitable and efficient income tax system for advocates in Ethiopia.

A Tractable Model for Non-Coherent Joint-Transmission Base Station Cooperation

description: This paper presents a tractable model for analyzing non-coherent joint transmission base station (BS) cooperation, taking into account the irregular BS deployment typically encountered in practice. Besides cellular-network specific aspects such as BS density, channel fading, average path loss and interference, the model also captures relevant cooperation mechanisms including user-centric BS clustering and channel-dependent cooperation activation. The locations of all BSs are modeled by a Poisson point process. Using tools from stochastic geometry, the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio ($\mathtt{SINR}$) distribution with cooperation is precisely characterized in a generality-preserving form. The result is then applied to practical design problems of recent interest. We find that increasing the network-wide BS density improves the $\mathtt{SINR}$, while the gains increase with the path loss exponent. For pilot-based channel estimation, the average spectral efficiency saturates at cluster sizes of around $7$ BSs for typical values, irrespective of backhaul quality. Finally, it is shown that intra-cluster frequency reuse is favorable in moderately loaded cells with generous cooperation activation, while intra-cluster coordinated scheduling may be better in lightly loaded cells with conservative cooperation activation.

description: A corporate group consists of a parent company and subsidiary companies with separate legal personality. A corporate group can have a dominant influence and may drain the assets of member companies toward the parent company, threatening the interests of minority shareholders, and creditors. To safeguard these interests, statutory provisions or self-help mechanisms should provide protection. This article examined the legal frameworks provided by Ethiopian laws for safeguarding the creditors of subsidiary companies in corporate groups. Specifically, it emphasized the question of whether the parent company is liable to a subsidiary company‟s creditors. The Ethiopian Revised Commercial Code (RCC), the primary legislation governing corporations in Ethiopia, establishes general regulations on the protection of creditors of businesses. This article explores the liability of a parent company towards the creditors of its subsidiary under the RCC and other relevant Ethiopian legislations. It uses German Law and the UK Company Act for comparative discussions. Italian law is also consulted. The study reveals that the RCC has provisions which prohibit parent companies from abusing control over subsidiaries. The provisions are related to wrongful trading, abuse of group's interests to the detriment of its subsidiaries, and cross-holdings of shares above the legal thresholds. These provisions provide statutory protections to creditors of a controlled company in a corporate group. Violations of these prohibitions by a parent company can lead to different degrees of liability towards creditors of a subsidiary company.

description: The role of the triply extended group of translations of $\mathbb{R}^{4}$, as the defining group of two dimensional noncommutative quantum mechanics (NCQM), has been studied in \cite{ncqmjmp}. In this paper, we revisit the coadjoint orbit structure and various irreducible representations of the group associated with them. The two irreducible representations corresponding to the Landau and symmetric gauges are found to arise from the underlying defining group. The group structure of the transformations, preserving the commutation relations of NCQM, has been studied along with specific examples. Finally, the relationship of a certain family of UIRs of the underlying defining group with a family of deformed complex Hermite polynomials has been explored .

description: Recently, it has been shown that the change of resonance widths in an open system under a perturbation of its interior is a sensitive indicator of the nonorthogonality of resonance states. We apply this measure to quantify parametric motion of the resonances. In particular, a strong redistribution of the widths is linked with the maximal degree of nonorthogonality. Then for weakly open chaotic systems we discuss the effect of spectral rigidity on the statistical properties of the parametric width shifts, and derive the distribution of the latter in a picket-fence model with equidistant spectrum.
