(Figs. 48–52)
Description
Male. Dark brown. Elytral costae and suture basally and trochanter­femoral joints testaceous.
Head feebly grooved behind antennal prominence. Eyes relatively large (interocular distance about twice as long as the radius). Ultimate joint of maxillary palpi about 3 times longer than palpomere 3. Antennae slightly reaching over elytral middle, with antennomere 3 and following antennomeres subequal in length to scape.
Pronotum elongate, 1.2 times longer than wide, anterior half roughly punctured, with conspicuous median carina; lateral margins parallel­sided, with hind angles acute and moderately produced latero­posteriorly. Scutellum square, parallel­sided, rounded and finely emarginate at apex.
Elytra long, 3.5 times longer than wide humerally, almost parallel­sided, interstices with 2 to 3 rows of irregular punctures. Dense pubescence short and decumbent.
Metatrochanters with blunt posterior angles.
Aedeagus with straight median lobe and relatively short narrow inner sac (Figs. 51– 52).

description: Abstract: The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has profoundly influenced various industries, including accounting, by automating repetitive tasks, improving data accuracy, and facilitating strategic decision-making. This paper comprehensively analyzes AI's implications for the accounting profession, highlighting both opportunities and potential risks. While AI adoption optimizes efficiency and encourages innovation, it raises concerns like job displacement, ethical dilemmas, algorithmic transparency, and data security challenges. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the study examines the necessity of developing strong ethical frameworks, enhancing professional competencies, and promoting cross-sector collaboration to address these risks. The findings emphasize the importance of balanced AI integration to ensure transparency, ethical practices, and sustained professional relevance in an increasingly digital world landscape.

(Figs 16–19, 36)
Drapetis (Eudrapetis) pennescens Melander, 1918: 202; 1928: 311 (list).
Drapetis (Crossopalpus) pennescens: Smith, 1967: 3 (cat.).
Crossopalpus pennescens: Yang et al., 2007: 362 (cat.); Raffone, 2012: 98 (record for Bolivia).
Diagnosis. Black species with femora dark brown, except fore femur with base and apex dark yellow, and mid femur with apex brownish-yellow, tibiae brownish-yellow except base of tibia dark-yellow. Antenna dark brown. Head covered with pale yellow tomentum, shiny only on ocellar triangle, patch of tomentum on vertex absent. Acrostichal and dorsocentral bristles numerous, indistinguishable, all series complete. Wing with R 4+5 and M 1 strongly arched, both parallel throughout.
Type material examined: HOLOTYPE ♀ [by photograph] (NMNH). Matucana / Peru / Jul.1. [19]13 [white, manuscript]; Type / Eudrapetis / pennescens / Mel [ander] [red, typeset/manuscript]; AL Melander / Collection / 1961 [white/green, typeset] (Fig. 19).
Distribution. Bolivia (Cochabamba), Peru (Matucana) (Fig. 36).
Remarks. Melander (1918) originally distinguished C. pennescens from C. armipes by the color of the legs
being blacker, hind femur bearing a single subapical anteroventral seta, ventral hair-like bristles on hind tibia, hind tarsomere 1 blackish lacking golden pruinescence, and wings hyaline. However, the species are actually very similar, because the color of the legs is quite similar to C. armipes (cf. Figs 10, 16, 17), and the color of hind tarsomere 1 is similar in several South American species (e.g., Figs 25, 27). The ventral hair-like bristles are absent only in C. aliceae sp. nov., and present in C. armipes as pointed out by Rafael (1995). Additionally, the scutum of C. armipes and C. pennescens bears numerous rows of bristles, a character shared only with C. goliathus sp. nov. in South America. Crossopalpus armipes can be distinguished from the other two species mainly by the presence of tomentum on upper 1/2 of the postocular area, R 4+5 and M 1 very sinuous and parallel, similar to the Palearctic species C. curvinervis (Zetterstedt) and C. abditus Kovalev.

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Severe burns are linked to significant muscular loss and atrophy. Muscle wasting refers to the involuntary loss of 5%–10% of muscle mass, while individuals with severe burns may experience an abrupt loss of up to 25% of total body mass. Whole-body vibration and pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) individually affected quadriceps strength post-burn. This work aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of either pulsed electromagnetic field therapy or whole-body vibration on quadriceps strength post-burn. This study involved thirty patients of both genders, aged 25 to 40 years, with second-degree burns covering 10%-25% of TBSA. They were recruited from Al-Ahrar Teaching Hospital at Alsharqiya Governorate, Egypt, and divided at random into two equal-sized groups. Group (A) was given whole-body vibration training three times weekly for 6 weeks, while group (B) was given pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, three sessions weekly for six weeks. The standard physical treatment program was administered to both groups (splinting, stretching, strengthening, and range of motion exercises) for quadriceps muscles and medical treatment. The strength of the quadriceps was assessed for both groups using a handheld dynamometer at baseline as well as six weeks post-intervention. Both groups' mean values of quadriceps strength increased significantly after therapy. Nonetheless, upon comparison, the enhancements in group B were statistically significant relative to those in group A. (p = 0.002). Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy was more effective than whole-body vibration in improving quadriceps strength post-burn.

Material examined. Australia. Victoria, Corner Inlet, NMV J17471 (1 male, 5.8 mm; 1 ovigerous female, 6.0 mm) – selected from numerous specimens at NMV. New South Wales, Durras, ZRC 1993.6518–6519 (1 male, 1 female).
Distribution. Southern Australia, intertidal to 85 m (Poore 2004).
Remarks. Melrose (1975) listed the New Zealand species Halicarcinus huttoni Filhol, 1886, as a possible synonym of H. ovatus but see the discussion below under H. quoyi. Halicarcinus ovatus is a common Australian endemic; its type locality is Port Jackson [Sydney, New South Wales]. Hymenicus krefftii Hess, 1865, also with the type locality Sydney, is probably a synonym based on the illustration showing a similar rostrum and preocular pseudorostral lobes. Lucas (1980) and Poore (2004) suggested more than one species may be masquerading under this name.

Material examined. Syntypes of Hymenicus marmoratus. New Zealand, Lyttelton Harbour, CMNZ (male, 3.6 mm; 3 females, 2.8–3.0 mm).
Other material. New Zealand. Dunedin, NMV J7376 (1 male, 9.7 mm; 14 females). Specimens labelled ‘ Hymenicus marmoratus sent by Dr Chilton to S.W. Fulton rec. 23.05.[19]06’: Lyttelton and Akaroa, NMV J7088 (4 males, 6.4–7.2 mm; 1 female, 5.5 mm); Keneperu Sound, NMV J7091 (female, 6.6 mm); without locality, NMV J7089 (2 males, 3.5, 6.0 mm; 4 ovigerous females, 3.8–4.5 mm), NMV J7090 (1 female, 7.7 mm).
Distribution. New Zealand except its subantarctic islands (McLay 1988).
Remarks. The material at hand conforms in all respects with typical Halicarcinus. The chelipeds are unusually setose and the rostrum prominent. Haswell (1882) recorded the species from Australia but it is unlikely to occur outside New Zealand. Hymenicus marmoratus Chilton, 1882, was likened to Hymenicus varius in the author’s original description. Chilton (1906) and Chilton & Bennett (1929) questioned the validity of the species in subsequent publications. Melrose (1975) included Hymenicus marmoratus in the synonymy of Halicarcinus cookii, arguing that the large second lateral angle and colour are more similar to this species. Material (listed above) including specimens from Lyttelton, the type locality, was identified and labelled by Chilton and sent by him to S.W. Fulton in Melbourne. It is now in Museum Victoria. These specimens were identified by J. Lucas and by one of us (GCBP) as Halicarcinus varius which we conclude is its senior synonym.

description: Machine Learning (ML) algorithms are becoming popular in cosmology for extracting valuable information from cosmological data. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) trained on matter density snapshots to distinguish clustering Dark Energy (DE) from the cosmological constant scenario and to detect the speed of sound ($c_s$) associated with clustering DE. We compare the CNN results with those from a Random Forest (RF) algorithm trained on power spectra. Varying the dark energy equation of state parameter $w_{\rm{DE}}$ within the range of -0.7 to -0.99, while keeping $c_s^2 = 1$, we find that the CNN approach results in a significant improvement in accuracy over the RF algorithm. The improvement in classification accuracy can be as high as $40\%$ depending on the physical scales involved. We also investigate the ML algorithms' ability to detect the impact of the speed of sound by choosing $c_s^2$ from the set $\{1, 10^{-2}, 10^{-4}, 10^{-7}\}$ while maintaining a constant $w_{\rm DE}$ for three different cases: $w_{\rm DE} \in \{-0.7, -0.8, -0.9\}$. Our results suggest that distinguishing between various values of $c_s^2$ and the case where $c_s^2=1$ is challenging, particularly at small scales and when $w_{\rm{DE}}\approx -1$. However, as we consider larger scales, the accuracy of $c_s^2$ detection improves. Notably, the CNN algorithm consistently outperforms the RF algorithm, leading to an approximate $20\%$ enhancement in $c_s^2$ detection accuracy in some cases.

$A_{5}$ symmetry and deviation from Golden Ratio mixing with charged lepton flavor violation

description: A neutrino mass model that can satisfy the exact golden ratio mixing is constructed using $A_{5}$ discrete symmetry group. The deviation from the golden ratio mixing is studied by considering the contribution from the charged lepton sector in a linear seesaw framework. A definite pattern of charged lepton mass matrix predicted by the model controls the leptonic mixing angles. By taking the observed $θ_{13}$ as the input value, we can obtain the values of all the mixing angles and Dirac CP-violating phase within the current experimental bounds.
 The model predicts that only the normal neutrino mass ordering is consistent with the current oscillation data. We also study the two body charged lepton flavor violation (cLFV) processes such as $μ\rightarrow e +γ$, $τ\rightarrow e +γ$ and $τ\rightarrow μ+ γ$ and neutrinoless double beta decay parameter $m_{ββ}$. The present neutrino mass model can explain the current and future sensitivity of $μ\rightarrow e +γ$, $τ\rightarrow e+ γ$ processes and the present sensitivity of neutrinoless double beta decay parameter when the masses of quasi-Dirac neutrinos are in the TeV range. On the other hand, the model cannot reproduce the present sensitivity of $τ\rightarrow μ+ γ$ but can explain the future sensitivity and the present sensitivity of neutrinoless double beta decay parameter simultaneously when the masses of the quasi-Dirac neutrinos are in the TeV range.

title: Eschatology and personhood : Alexander Schmemann and Joseph Ratzinger in dialogue

description: This thesis explores the extent to which eschatology shapes temporal existence. The interlocutors are Alexander Schmemann and Joseph Ratzinger. The first part of the thesis examines (1) Schmemann’s account of eschatology, (2) how this shapes temporality, and (3) what it means to be a person in time. Schmemann’s account is based upon a dualistic conception of temporality in which ‘this world’, the ‘old’ aeon, finds its meaning and life in the ‘new’ aeon. Thus, meaning is found anagogically and teleologically, and human persons are called not only to ascend and leave the ‘old’ aeon but, as priests, to instil meaning into the world by offering it to God. It is argued that although Schmemann’s anthropology is Christocentric and relational, it remains, like his view of temporality, teleologically unidirectional.

The second part of the thesis addresses the same questions as are raised in part one but of Ratzinger’s theological approach. For Ratzinger eschatology is absorbed into Christology, and thus it is understood relationally as is also the case with his account of history. The Logos as dia-Logos works within history ‘wooing’ humankind into relationship with the trinitarian God. As a result of Ratzinger’s relation vision, history is undivided––there is no ‘old’ and ‘new’ aeon––and history succeeding Christ continues to be Advent history. As historical creatures, human persons are relational beings who must be understood as both ‘with’ and ‘for’ the other. Temporality as relational ‘space’ is central to his account and interpreted as grounded in the eternal being of the relational God.

The thesis concludes that for Ratzinger God’s triune relationality shapes eschatology and what it means to be a person in time. Whereas, for Schmemann, the converse is the case: eschatology informs his conception of relationality, temporality, and personhood. As a result of the primacy of eschatology in Schmemann’s theology human temporal existence is ultimately denigrated.

description: This paper presents a comparative study of two prominent uncertainty quan-tification methods: the Karhunen-Lo`eve Expansion (KLE) and Monte Carlo Simu-lation (MCS). The application of these methods is demonstrated using the half-car suspension system, a widely studied model in vehicle dynamics. The KLE method’s computational efficiency and its ability to provide analytical insights are compared with the brute-force accuracy of the Monte Carlo approach. Results indicate that KLE significantly reduces computation time while maintaining sufficient accuracy, making it a preferred choice in many engineering applications.
Application of the Berry phase to problems in solid-state physics

description: The Berry phase, a geometric phase acquired by the wavefunction of a quantum system during cyclic adiabatic evolution, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics with profound implications across various fields, including solid-state physics and electronic structure theory. This thesis explores several aspects of electronic structure theory related to the Berry phase, namely surface orbital magnetization, electric polarization switching, and the formation of topological Chern bands in two-dimensional materials. We begin by introducing the foundational concepts and methods used throughout the thesis. Subsequently, we investigate surface orbital magnetization, first identifying macroscopic bound currents running along hinges shared by two surface facets as the corresponding physical observables. We then explore the symmetry conditions for surface magnetization to be well defined and propose a method to compute it using a quantum local marker. Tests on tight-binding models reveal that only one specific marker consistently predicts the hinge currents correctly. Next, we examine electric polarization switching pathways in CuInP2S6, a van der Waals layered ferroelectric material. Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, we explore the rich energy landscape of the system and identify "sequential" paths -- those that break the system's glide mirror symmetry and involve independent Cu ion motion -- as energetically favorable for switching through the monolayers and van der Waals gaps. The combination of such through-layer and cross-gap paths is demonstrated to form a globally insulating cycle resulting in Cu ions shifting into neighboring unit cells, permitting a characterization of CuInP2S6 as a quantized adiabatic charge pump. Finally, we investigate the application of magnetic superlattices, generated by spatially modulated magnetic fields, to bilayer graphene for the purposes of inducing flat topological Chern bands. We explore fields that introduce either no net magnetic flux or a single quantum of flux to the superlattice unit cell, as well as their joint action with electric superlattices. We then propose a method of generating single-flux-quantum magnetic superlattices and concomitant electric superlattices involving charge densities induced on the surface of magnetoelectric materials by the flux vortices of a type II superconductor. We study the effects of these superlattices on the band structure of bilayer graphene.

Thomas's Pika
Ochotona thomasi
French: Pika de Thomas / German: Thomas-Pfeifhase / Spanish: Pica de Thomas
Taxonomy. Ochotona thomasi Argyropulo, 1948,
“u3 ponunbl 03. AJIBIK-HOP Ha or oT OpuH-HOpa B CEBEPO-BOCTOYHOM Tubere” (= from valley of Alyk-nor Lake south of Orin-Nor in NE Tibet), Madoi County, Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai, China.
According to mtDNA, O. thomasi belongs to subgenus Ochotona. According to morphological study, it includes culiana. Monotypic.
Distribution. Patchily distributed in NE and E periphery of the Tibetan Plateau (Qilian, Burhan Budai, Amne Machin, and Bayan Har Mts) in Qinghai, Gansu, and NW Sichuan, China.
Descriptive notes. Head—body 120-170 mm, ear 15-23 mm, hindfoot 23-29 mm; weight 40-115 g. Thomas’s Pika is small-sized. Dorsal fur is brown or ocherous brown, mixed with lighter hair tips. Ventral fur is grayish, dull brown or ocherous. Throat and chest are darker. Winter fur is longer, softer, and grayer than during other seasons. Ears are small, rounded, gray inside at bases, and brown or rufous closer to edges with very narrow white margins or without them. General variation in pelage color of Thomas’s Pika widely overlaps with the Moupin Pika (O. thibetana), the Gansu Pika (O. cansus), and the Tsing-ling Pika (O. syrinx). Skull of Thomas’s Pika is small and very narrow, with widely confluent incisive and palatal foramens. Auditory bullae are small and connivent. Condylobasal lengths are 31-35 mm, skull widths are 13-16 mm, and skull heights are 10-11 mm. In general, Thomas’s Pika can be distinguished from all pika species by its elongated, narrow skull. It overlaps in skull shape with the southern race of the Gansu Pika (stevensi) but differs from it byits very flat skull.
Habitat. Alpine shrub mountain zone at elevations of 2800-4100 m. Thomas's Pika occurs in shrubby areas and does not penetrate subalpine meadows; it is a shrub dweller.
Food and Feeding. Thomas’s Pika feeds on green xeric plants.
Breeding. Young Thomas's Pikas are recorded in April-July, subadults in May-September.
Activity patterns. There is no specific information available for this species, but Thomas’s Pikas are diurnal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. Thomas's Pikas dig burrows with several entrances.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List.
