description: The low frequency sensitivity of space-borne gravitational wave observatories will depend critically on the geodetic purity of the trajectories of orbiting test masses. Fluctuations in the temperature difference across the enclosure surrounding the free-falling test mass can produce noisy forces through several processes, including the radiometric effect, radiation pressure, and outgassing. We present here a detailed experimental investigation of thermal gradient-induced forces for the LISA gravitational wave mission and the LISA Pathfinder, employing high resolution torsion pendulum measurements of the torque on a LISA-like test mass suspended inside a prototype of the LISA gravitational reference sensor that will surround the test mass in orbit. The measurement campaign, accompanied by numerical simulations of the radiometric and radiation pressure effects, allows a more accurate and representative characterization of thermal-gradient forces in the specific geometry and environment relevant to LISA free-fall. The pressure dependence of the measured torques allows clear identification of the radiometric effect, in quantitative agreement with the model developed. In the limit of zero gas pressure, the measurements are most likely dominated by outgassing, but at a low level that does not threaten the LISA sensitivity goals.

description: Since its establishment in 2017, the Global Sustainability Coalition for Open Science Services (SCOSS) has supported eight Open Science Infrastructure services determined through a rigorous vetting process to be 1) crucial to an international researcher base, and 2) in need of financial support to secure a sustainable funding path. With three pledging rounds launched, and over 3.3 million Euros raised for Open Science infrastructures, SCOSS has been consulting with the research community through the SCOSS survey launched in June 2021, followed by individual interviews and focus groups. This research has informed a strategy for the coming three years. As step one in this journey, the SCOSS Board worked with a consultant to gather global stakeholder feedback on how the Open Science community perceives SCOSS and situates it within the landscape of other Open Science Infrastructure initiatives. More than 200 respondents shared their views on what types of Open Science Infrastructure should be prioritized for funding sharing what criteria are taken into consideration when making such choices. The rich survey responses informed the SCOSS strategy, published earlier this month. This slide deck has been used in the What's next for SCOSS? Designing SCOSS's future with the community webinar. During this webinar, SCOSS Board members shared the consultation results and walked the audience through how they shaped SCOSS’s strategic goals for the future. In a panel discussion, they shared their views on the consultation results and SCOSS’s priorities going forward. The discussion was followed by a Q&A session with the audience.

description: We derive the collective low energy excitations of the quantum phase model of interacting lattice bosons within the superfluid state using a dynamical variational approach. We recover the well known sound (or Goldstone) mode and derive a gapped (Higgs type) mode that was overlooked in previous studies of the quantum phase model. This mode is relevant to ultracold atoms in a strong optical lattice potential. We predict the signature of the gapped mode in lattice modulation experiments and show how it evolves with increasing interaction strength.

description: Asteroseismic observations are crucial to constrain stellar models with precision. Bayesian Estimation of STellar Parameters (BESTP) is a tool that utilizes Bayesian statistics and nested sampling Monte Carlo algorithm to search for the stellar models that best match a given set of classical and asteroseismic constraints from observations. The computation and evaluation of models are efficiently performed in an automated and a multi-threaded way. To illustrate the capabilities of BESTP, we estimate fundamental stellar properties for the Sun and the red-giant star HD 222076. In both cases, we find models that are consistent with the observations. We also evaluate the improvement in the precision of stellar parameters when the oscillation frequencies of individual modes are included as constraints, compared to the case when only the the large frequency separation is included. For the solar case, the uncertainties of estimated masses, radii and ages are reduced by 0.7%, 0.3% and 8% respectively. For HD 222076, they are reduced even more noticeably by 2%, 0.5% and 4.7%. We also note an improvement of 10% for the age of HD 222076 when the Gaia parallax is included as a constraint compared to the case when only the large separation is included as constraint.

description: With the integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RESs), the power network must be robust to handle the system's uncertain scenarios. DC Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP) plans are generally not feasible for the AC network. A first bi-level Robust Optimization (RO) solution approach for AC TEP with injection uncertainties in loads and RESs generations is proposed in this paper. It utilizes a well-known convex relaxation and is solved by Benders Decomposition (BD), where the master determines the robust AC TEP plan. A novel dual slave model is developed for the second level of BD, which circumvents the issues in using the Conic Duality Theory (CDT), and aids in the worst-case realization of uncertainties using a novel set of constraints. The developed dual slave is not a mixed-integer problem and is solved using the Primal-Dual Interior Point Method (PDIPM). The proposed work also uses additional linear constraints to reduce BD's computational burden and direct the master towards optimality. Monte-Carlo Simulation (MCS) based verification, via actual nonlinear and non-convex AC Optimal Power Flow (OPF), proves 100% robustness of the TEP plans for all scenarios.

description: In the recent publication, Phys. Rev. B 102, 144420 (2020), Cabrera-Baez et al. present a study of the effects of Cd-substitution for Zn in the ferromagnetic compound GdFe2Zn20. As part of this paper, they claim that for GdFe2Zn18.6Cd1.4 the effective moment of Gd is reduced by 25% and the saturated moment of Gd is reduced by over 40%. We regrew representative members of the GdFe2Zn(20-x)Cdx series and did not find any such reductions. In addition, we measured several crystals from the growth batch that was used by Cabrera-Baez et al. and did not see such reductions. Although there is a modest increase in TC with Cd substitution, there is no significant change in the Gd effective moment or the saturated moment associated with the low temperature ferromagnetic state.

Travelling along the Enlightened road. A European journey through Polish quills
Creators: name: Barreno, Cristina Jiménez
Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach
Year: 2023

description: Travel gave birth to Europe. This action and the different kind of journeys that followed are linked with our subcontinent’s history and with our European civilisation. How have they come to our knowledge? Through their written legacy: their story told by other persons, their personal diaries or their memoirs, especially since the eighteenth century. Can we actually call these travellers Europeans, Easterners and Westerners, or would it be an anachronism? Hence, could it be said that in the late eighteenth century there might have been the germ of a European feeling, perception, or identity? To tackle this problématique, I analysed personal documents written by two Poles who travelled to England and Scotland in the second part of the century: the travel diary of Princess Izabela Czatoryska, and the memoirs of the last king of Poland, Stanisław August Poniatowski. They both agree in some views (education, manners), while they sometimes notice or focus on different ones (gardens, industry/progress). This said, using analytic, comparative and gender approaches, and taking into account that the two of them were raised in an elite environment, there will be an attempt to verify the possibility of the existence of a European elite (or should we rather call it Enlight-ened?) identity avant la lettre, and to study whether the national identity was compatible with this transnational one.

description: We present a multiwavelength analysis of 63 Gamma-Ray Bursts observed with the world's three largest robotic optical telescopes, the Liverpool and Faulkes Telescopes (North and South). Optical emission was detected for 24 GRBs with brightnesses ranging from R = 10 to 22 mag in the first 10 minutes after the burst. By comparing optical and X-ray light curves from t = 100 to about 10^6 seconds, we introduce four main classes, defined by the presence or absence of temporal breaks at optical and/or X-ray wavelengths. While 15/24 GRBs can be modelled with the forward-shock model, explanation of the remaining nine is very challenging in the standard framework even with the introduction of energy injection or an ambient density gradient. Early X-ray afterglows, even segments of light curves described by a power-law, may be due to additional emission from the central engine. 39 GRBs in our sample were not detected and have deep upper limits (R < 22 mag) at early time. Of these, only ten were identified by other facilities, primarily at near infrared wavelengths, resulting in a dark burst fraction of about 50%. Additional emission in the early time X-ray afterglow due to late-time central engine activity may also explain some dark bursts by making the bursts brighter than expected in the X-ray band compared to the optical band.

description: Applying Clausius relation, $δQ=TdS$, to apparent horizon of a FRW universe with any spatial curvature, and assuming that the apparent horizon has temperature $T=1/(2π\tilde {r}_A)$, and a quantum corrected entropy-area relation, $S=A/4G +α\ln A/4G$, where $\tilde {r}_A$ and $A$ are the apparent horizon radius and area, respectively, and $α$ is a dimensionless constant, we derive modified Friedmann equations, which does not contain a bounce solution. On the other hand, loop quantum cosmology leads to a modified Friedmann equation $H^2 =\frac{8πG}{3}ρ(1-ρ/ρ_{\rm crit})$. We obtain an entropy expression of apparent horizon of FRW universe described by the modified Friedmann equation. In the limit of large horizon area, resulting entropy expression gives the above corrected entropy-area relation, however, the prefactor $α$ in the logarithmic term is positive, which seems not consistent with most of results in the literature that quantum geometry leads to a negative contribution to the area formula of black hole entropy.

Aspects of energy transport in a vortex stabilized arc
Creators: name: Pearson, John Beverly
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Vortex stabilized argon arcs are of interest as sources of high intensity light. Previous workers in the field have found that the heat transported to the wall of the arc vessel greatly exceeded that predicted by theory. Two modifications to the theory have been proposed to account for the observed values of heat transport. This thesis describes a specialized arc vessel which has been constructed to allow the measurement of the axial profile of heat transported to the wall. The axial profile of radiation produced by the arc has also been measured. These experiments elucidate the mechanisms responsible for the large values of heat transported to the wall. In this work a 225 A d.c. arc was used. It was stabilized by an argon vortex at a pressure of 5.5 atm. It is found that the electrode regions of the arc contribute significantly to the total heat transported to the wall. Midway between the electrodes however, the profile is found to be quite flat. The experiments also indicate that some heat is transported upstream from the arc, and it has been shown that this is due to a reverse axial flow core in the gas vortex. The measured profile of radiation produced by the arc is found to be very uniform in the arc column. In the region midway between the electrodes the dependence of the radiation and heat transported to the wall on the gas flow rate in the vortex were examined. The measured radiation is found to be 30-35% less than predicted by theory. It is shown that this may be due to the axial transport of energy in the arc. The scaling of the amount of heat transported to the wall is found to be in good agreement with the predictions of a model for the arc which includes turbulent heat transport by using a mixing length model. The d.c. power supply used in this work produces a waveform with considerable ripple. Time dependent measurements were therefore made of the radiation produced by the arc and the electrical power input to the arc column. These results are compared with a time dependent theory of the arc column.

Creators: name: Fletcher, Harriet
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis argues that mortality and immortality are central to the Gothic representation of celebrities in narratives and wider culture, which reveals that discourses of Gothic and celebrity are continually used as vehicles for exploring how modern Western culture deals with ageing and death. It identifies the originating moment of this trend in canonical Gothic texts: Lord Byron’s fictionalisation in John Polidori’s ‘The Vampyre’ (1819), and Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890). It then explores the manifestations of Gothic celebrity in mid-century Hollywood film, postmodern art and post-millennial television. Texts within this tradition use established Gothic conventions of vampirism, decaying portraits and ageing bodies to engage with themes of mortality and immortality surrounding the figure of the celebrity in modern culture. This thesis breaks new ground by combining two burgeoning scholarly fields that have not yet been explored together: Gothic studies and celebrity studies. My analysis of Gothic celebrity texts makes an original contribution to both fields of study. While many Gothic studies critics have examined the Gothic in popular culture (Edwards and Soltysik Monnet, 2012), a specific focus on celebrity has been overlooked. Furthermore, much of the work on celebrity studies has been undertaken in media and cultural studies, but I use the theoretical framework of Gothic literary studies to analyse texts in different media. My thesis reveals that celebrity culture continues to exhibit Gothic sensibilities in relation to mortality and immortality and concludes by exploring how the tradition of Gothic celebrity presents an alternative narrative about celebrity culture’s longstanding tension between renewal and decay.
Long Live the Border: the American-Mexican Frontier and Its Beneficiaries

description: In her acclaimed book Borderlands / La Frontera: the New Mestiza (1987), Gloria Anzaldúa calls the US-Mexican border ‘an open wound’ which has continually been festering since the grinding poverty of the Third World began to clash with the growing domination of the First. The recently deepening wound is clearly connected with the gradual acceleration of brutality in the borderlands, being the repercussion of President Felipe Calderón’s 2006 decision to declare war on cartels. Yet, with its adjoining territories, the border is tantamount to the source of inexhaustible income falling not only to drug trafficking organisations but also to various lawful businesses and innumerable individuals. With a focus on Ed Vulliamy’s Amexica: War Along the Borderline (2010), and references to other sources, the article aims to examine who gains from the grave situation in the US-Mexican borderlands by showing that the beneficiaries are remarkably diverse.
Were Western Intellectuals Blind? Simone de Beauvoir on her Visits to the USSR

description: The article focuses on the part of the fourth autobiographic book by French writer and philosopher Simone de Beauvoir Tout compte fait (English: All Said and Done, 1974) wherein she talks about her and Jean-Paul Sartre’s trips to the USSR in the 60s. The author of the article questions the widespread opinion that the Western leftist intellectuals, because of their political leanings, were unable to understand the realities of the Communist regime. The article concludes that Beauvoir was able to see the USSR critically and the image of political and cultural life she presents in her book is generally consistent with the opinion of the liberal intellectuals of the USSR of that time.

description: The material emitted from the target surface during laser ablation generates a net thrust (propulsion) in the opposite direction. The energetic efficiency of this laser-driven propulsion is given by the mechanical coupling coefficient (Cm). In this work we considered nanosecond UV laser ablation of the aluminum 6061 alloy to study the Cm behaviour with different irradiating conditions. This is done by systematically changing: fluence, uniform/nonuniform intensity, and incident angle of the laser beam. In particular we found that, when dealing with nonuniform laser intensity, characterizing Cm exclusively in terms of fluence is not fully satisfactory because the energy distribution over the irradiated area plays a key role in the way material is removed -- interplay between vaporization and phase-explosion -- and thrust is generated.

Anne Shirley Crosses Borders

Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach
Year: 2023

description: Throughout the eight books that constitute the core of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables series, the protagonist, Anne Shirley, later Anne Blythe, crosses many borders. Some of these are geographical as she changes towns in order to study or work. As time goes by, Anne’s life reaches broader circles: at first she is only “of Green Gables”, later “of Avonlea” and, in the third volume, “of the Island”. The heroine also passes from an idyllic childhood to a painful motherhood, from romantic dreams of a perfect prince to the realisation that “perfect” is not what she wants and that the man who does not match her dreams is the one who is truly ideal for her. An abundance of social conventions are waiting for Anne to test their limits, which she does, allowing herself at times to abandon the seriousness of Mrs Dr Blythe. All these crossings are discussed in the present paper in order to propose a reading which considers border crossings as pivotal points in the series.

description: Raman scattering from binary GexSe1-x glasses under hydrostatic pressure shows onset of a steady increase in the frequency of modes of corner-sharing GeSe4 tetrahedral units when the external pressure P exceeds a threshold value Pc. The threshold pressure Pc(x) decreases with x in the 0.15 < x < 0.20 range, nearly vanishes in the 0.20 < x < 0.25 range, and then increases in the 0.25 < x < 1/3 range. These Pc(x) trends closely track those in the non-reversing enthalpy, DHnr(x), near glass transitions (Tgs), and in particular, both DHnr(x) and Pc(x) vanish in the reversibility window (0.20 < x < 0.25). It is suggested that Pc provides a measure of stress at the Raman active units; and its vanishing in the reversibility window suggests that these units are part of an isostatically rigid backbone. Isostaticity also accounts for the non-aging behavior of glasses observed in the reversibility window.
Mr. Bones’s Incredible Journey: Canine Travel and Homelessness in Paul Auster’s “Timbuktu”
Creators: name: Dubino, Jeanne
Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach
Year: 2023

description: The US-American novelist Paul Auster’s Timbuktu (1999) is written in the tradition of books, films and even the popular press about traveling dogs: The Incredible Journey (novel, 1961; film, 1963; film remake, as Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey, 1993), White God (film, 2014), and Pero, “the real-life Homeward Bound! Homesick sheepdog makes incredible 12-day 240-mile journey back to his original owner after running off from his new farmhouse” (news story, 2016). Like the dogs in these other narratives, Mr. Bones, the traveling dog in Timbuktu, has been rendered homeless, and throughout the novel he travels to find a new home. With reference to the several versions of The Incredible Journey and to White God, this paper will focus on the way canine travel is driven by homelessness in Timbuktu. But, as Mr. Bones thinks, is travel for homeless dogs in fact travel when they aren’t “going anywhere, just traveling around in circles, lost in the limbo between one nowhere and the next” (89)? When his human companion and vagabond Willy G. Christmas was alive, Mr. Bones later muses in the novel, the years they spent on the road was, indeed, “travel.” Through the perspective of Mr. Bones, Paul Auster speculates on what travel means for the homeless, both human but especially canine. As a philosophizing protagonist, Mr. Bones is, for sure, anthropomorphized, but, as Jutta Ittner argues, this is a “new anthropomorphism that views the animal as a separate and unknowable entity” (2006). Mr. Bones’s final destination is “Timbuktu,” which is what Willy G. Christmas called the “next world”: “Where the map of this world ends,” Willy told Mr. Bones, “that’s where the map of Timbuktu begins” (48). Timbuktu, which has, for centuries, resonated as the most remote part of the world, is a fitting image for Giorgio Agamben’s open, or the space shared by human and nonhuman animal consciousness. This paper will conclude with a consideration of this mental map.

description: Type IIB supergravity enjoys a discrete non-Abelian duality group, which has potential quantum anomalies. In this paper we explicitly compute these, and present the bordism group that controls them, modulo some physically motivated assumptions. Quite surprisingly, we find that they do not vanish, which naively would signal an inconsistency of F-theory. Remarkably, a subtle modification of the standard 10d Chern-Simons term cancels these anomalies, a fact which relies on the ***specific*** field content of type IIB supergravity. We also discover other ways to cancel this anomaly, via a topological analog of the Green-Schwarz mechanism. These alternative type IIB theories have the same low energy supergravity limit as ordinary type IIB, but a different spectrum of extended objects. They could either be part of the Swampland, or connect to the standard theory via domain walls.

Savage America in Frances Trollope’s and Fanny Kemble’s Travel Writing
Creators: name: Fruzińska, Justyna
Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach
Year: 2023

description: This paper compares nineteenth-century travel accounts of two British women visiting the United States of America: Frances Trollope’s Domestic Manners of the Americans and Fanny Kemble’s Journal. Both writers focus on similar issues and are equally critical of the young republic; what they particularly dislike is its political and social equality, American manners, and what they see as the absence of literature and art. The paper argues that this strongly negative way of depicting America stems first from the literary convention of anti-Americanism, widespread in nineteenth-century Europe, and second from both authors’ wishes to elevate themselves while comparing their homeland with the “savage” New World.
Elizaveta de Vitte’s “Čechia”: beyond travel notes
Creators: name: Cugnata, Cristina
Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach
Year: 2023

description: Elizaveta de Vitte was a Russian pedagogue, writer and publicist. In the first decade of the 20th century, thanks to the collaboration with the Slavic Benefit Committees of Kiev and Saint Petersburg, she travelled a lot through Southern, Central-Eastern Europe in order to study regional Slavic ethnic groups and enlighten the Russian audience on their social and political conditions. In Czechia, while travelling over the country, Elizaveta de Vitte describes its nature, main towns, museums and monuments. Her travel notes are not simply personal impressions and objective descriptions but the result of a deep historical analysis on the country. Although many Russian tourists went on holiday to Karlsbad every year, nobody tried to know more about Czechia and its inhabitants. Unfortunately, each single Slav – Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Croatian, Serbian and Bulgarian – ignored the troubling history of this “miserable” people. On the contrary, in Elizaveta de Vitte’s opinion, each single Slavic tourist should have learned more about places and people who were directly connected with his own identity and past. Czechia was in fact an interesting example of a high-educated people who, despite the long foreign domain, was fighting to defend its own cultural identity. Moreover, in Czechia and Moravia the signs of Cyrillo-Methodian mission were tangible. Elizaveta de Vitte’s aim is to give an exhaustive idea of the country in order to spur her readers on to visit the towns and places she writes about. According to the author-traveller, Luhačovice should have become a shared Slavic health resort, a place in which to be taken care of, to relax and above all to get closer to their own “blood brothers” – the Czechs – while rediscovering the common Slavic roots.
Theory of quantum noise detectors based on resonant tunneling

description: We propose to use the phenomenon of resonant tunneling for the detection of noise. The main idea of this method relies on the effect of homogeneous broadening of the resonant tunneling peak induced by the emission and absorption of collective charge excitations in the measurement circuit. In thermal equilibrium, the signal to noise ratio of the detector as a function of the detector bandwidth (the detector function) is given by the universal hyperbolic tangent, which is the statement of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. The universality breaks down if non-equilibrium processes take place in the measurement circuit. We propose the theory of this phenomenon and make predictions for the detector function in case when non-equilibrium noise is created by a mesoscopic conductor. We investigate measurement circuit effects and prove the universality of the classical noise detection. Finally, we evaluate the contribution of the third cumulant of current and make suggestions of how it can be measured.

Geographical Journeys and Journeys of Self-Discovery in “The Count of Monte Cristo” and “A Room with a View”
Creators: name: Raicu, Elena
Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach
Year: 2023

description: In The Count of Monte Cristo (1844-1846) and A Room with a View (1908), Alexandre Dumas and E. M. Forster take their characters on a double journey, one that is both geographical and initiatory, which can be seen as one unitary voyage. Already an experienced travel writer by the time he publishes the story of Edmond Dantès, Dumas introduces in his novel entire passages reminiscent of his trips in Italy, France and the Mediterranean Sea. In his turn, Forster tries to describe Florence from the perspective of a British tourist, who is narrow-minded and superficial, using ironical speech to this effect. In addition to these geographical journeys, the two writers also guide their heroes in a physical and spiritual coming of age, in finding and accepting themselves.

description: Interference between nodes directly limits the capacity of mobile ad hoc networks. This paper focuses on spatial interference cancelation with perfect channel state information (CSI), and analyzes the corresponding network capacity. Specifically, by using multiple antennas, zero-forcing beamforming is applied at each receiver for canceling the strongest interferers. Given spatial interference cancelation, the network transmission capacity is analyzed in this paper, which is defined as the maximum transmitting node density under constraints on outage and the signal-to-interference-noise ratio. Assuming the Poisson distribution for the locations of network nodes and spatially i.i.d. Rayleigh fading channels, mathematical tools from stochastic geometry are applied for deriving scaling laws for transmission capacity. Specifically, for small target outage probability, transmission capacity is proved to increase following a power law, where the exponent is the inverse of the size of antenna array or larger depending on the pass loss exponent. As shown by simulations, spatial interference cancelation increases transmission capacity by an order of magnitude or more even if only one extra antenna is added to each node.

description: The motion of an artificial micro-scale swimmer that uses a chemical reaction catalyzed on its own surface to achieve autonomous propulsion is fully characterized experimentally. It is shown that at short times, it has a substantial component of directed motion, with a velocity that depends on the concentration of fuel molecules. At longer times, the motion reverts to a random walk with a substantially enhanced diffusion coefficient. Our results suggest strategies for designing artificial chemotactic systems.

Niemals in Vergessenheit geratenes Izbica/Ischbitze

Publisher: name: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego w Kielcach

description: The article contains a critical analysis and evaluation of book entitled Izbica, Izbica the author of which is Rafał Hetman, a journalist and a reporter, whose publications were published in the papers “Gazeta Wyborcza”, “Tygodnik Powszechny” or in the magazine “Chidusz”. The reviewed book in form of an interview and a report from it shows the lot of the Jewish community in Izbica – a small place near Lublin in south-eastern Poland. During the Second World War it served as a concentration camp and a ghetto. Unfortunately the name of the place is only seldom mentioned in such context in the specialist literature about the holocaust and the martyrdom of the Jewish people in Poland. The book as a result of the reporter’s work can be regarded as a testimony and a history textbook of the local communities, in which the main characters lose their anonymity and become specific people with their own names and wealth of experience, living in the social constellations and traditional relationship with other people

description: The [CII] $158\,μ\mathrm{m}$ fine-structure line is one of the dominant coolants of the neutral interstellar medium. It is hence one of the brightest far-infrared emission lines and can be observed not only in star-forming regions throughout the Galaxy, but also in the diffuse interstellar medium and in distant galaxies. [CII] line emission has been suggested to be a powerful tracer of star-formation. We aim to understand the origin of [CII] emission and its relation to other tracers of interstellar gas and dust. This includes a study of the heating efficiency of interstellar gas as traced by the [CII] line to test models of gas heating. We make use of a one-square-degree map of velocity-resolved [CII] line emission towards the Orion Nebula complex, including M43 and NGC 1977. The [CII] intensity is tightly correlated with PAH emission in the IRAC $8\,μ\mathrm{m}$ band and far-infrared emission from warm dust. The correlation between [CII] and CO(2-1) is affected by the detailed geometry of the region. We find particularly low [CII]-over-FIR intensity ratios towards large columns of (warm and cold) dust, which suggest the interpretation of the "[CII] deficit" in terms of a "FIR excess". A slight decrease in the FIR line-over-continuum intensity ratio can be attributed to a decreased heating efficiency of the gas. We find that, at the mapped spatial scales, predictions of the star-formation rate from [CII] emission underestimate the star-formation rate calculated from YSO counts in the Orion Nebula complex by an order of magnitude. [CII] emission from the Orion Nebula complex arises dominantly in the cloud surfaces, many viewed in edge-on geometry. [CII] emission from extended faint cloud surfaces may contribute significantly to the total [CII] emission on galactic scales.
Problem szacunku dla kobiet w świetle wybranych tekstów współczesnej muzyki folkowej. Na przykładzie repertuaru grupy „Same Suki”

description: Przedmiotem prezentowanej analizy jest kwestia szacunku dla kobiet. Tę istotną i wciąż aktualną problematykę podejmuje, istniejący od 2012 roku, zespół folkowy Same Suki, określany jako „rewolucyjna kobieca formacja folkowa”. Same Suki, w utworach takich jak Równochuć, Biczysko, BiczBox czy Łodiritkum, wyrażają potrzebę równouprawnienia płci i zerwania z patriarchalnym wzorcem myślenia, który ściśle wiąże się z tradycyjnym modelem rodziny, męską dominacją, jak również z nadrzędno-podrzędnym charakterem relacji damsko-męskich. Tematycznie i metodologicznie artykuł wpisuje się w badania nad rekonstrukcją językowo-kulturowego obrazu szacunku w polszczyźnie.
A study of the differential cross-section and analyzing powers of the pp-->[pi]+d reaction at intermediate energies
Creators: name: Giles, Gordon Lewis
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The polarized and unpolarized differential cross-sections and the analyzing power angular distributions of the pp→π⁺ d reaction have been measured to a statistical precision of better than one percent over several incident proton beam energies between 350 and 500 MeV for center-of-mass angles from 20° to 150°. The unpolarized differential cross-sections were measured at 350, 375, 425, and 475 MeV with unpolarized incident beams. The polarized differential cross-sections and analyzing powers were measured at 375, 450, and 498 MeV using polarized incident beams. Angular distributions of the unpolarized and polarized differential cross-sections are expanded into Legendre and Associated Legendre polynomial series respectively, and the ai°° and biⁿ° expansion coefficients fit to the respective measurements. The resulting coefficients are compared with existing data and recent theoretical predictions. The observation of significant non-zero a₆°° coefficent is interpreted as indication of a significant contribution from the ¹G₄ N-N partial wave channel at energies as low as 498 MeV.
