description: The mass-metallicity relation (MZR) of type-2 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at 1.2 < z < 4.0 is investigated by using high-z radio galaxies (HzRGs) and X-ray selected radio-quiet AGNs. We combine new rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) spectra of two radio-quiet type-2 AGNs obtained with FOCAS on the Subaru Telescope with existing rest-frame UV emission lines, i.e., CIV1549, HeII1640, and CIII]1909, of a sample of 16 HzRGs and 6 additional X-ray selected type-2 AGNs, whose host stellar masses have been estimated in literature. We divided our sample in three stellar mass bins and calculated averaged emission-line flux ratios of CIV1549/HeII1640 and CIII]1909/CIV1549. Comparing observed emission-line flux ratios with photoionization model predictions, we estimated narrow line region (NLR) metallicities for each mass bin. We found that there is a positive correlation between NLR metallicities and stellar masses of type-2 AGNs at z ~ 3. This is the first indication that AGN metallicities are related to their hosts, i.e., stellar mass. Since NLR metallicities and stellar masses follow a similar relation as the MZR in star-forming galaxies at similar redshifts, our results indicate that NLR metallicities are related to those of the host galaxies. This study highlights the importance of considering lower-mass X-ray selected AGNs in addition to radio galaxies to explore the metallicity properties of NLRs at high redshift.

description: We use Bayesian methods to analyze the distribution of gamma ray burst intensities reported in the Third BATSE Catalog (3B catalog) of gamma ray bursts, presuming the distribution of burst sources (``bursters'') is isotropic. We study both phenomenological and cosmological source distribution models, using Bayes's theorem both to infer unknown parameters in the models, and to compare rival models. We analyze the distribution of the time-averaged peak photon number flux, F, measured on both 64 ms and 1024 ms time scales, performing the analysis of data based on each time scale independently. Several of our findings differ from those of previous analyses that modeled burst detection less completely. In particular, we find that the width of the intrinsic luminosity function for bursters is unconstrained, and the luminosity function of the actually observed bursts can be extremely broad, in contrast to the findings of all previous studies. Useful constraints probably require observation of bursts significantly fainter than those visible to BATSE. We also find that the 3B peak flux data do not usefully constrain the redshifts of burst sources; useful constraints require the analysis of data beyond that in the 3B catalog (such as burst time histories), or data from brighter bursts than have been seen by BATSE (such as those observed by the Pioneer Venus Orbiter). In addition, we find that an accurate understanding of the peak flux distributions reported in the 3B almost certainly requires consideration of data on the temporal and spectral properties of bursts beyond that reported in the 3B catalog, and more sophisticated modeling than has so far been attempted.

description: In early-type Be stars, groups of nonradial pulsation (NRP) modes with numerically related frequencies may be instrumental for the release of excess angular momentum through mass-ejection events. Difference and sum/harmonic frequencies often form additional groups. The goal of this study is to find out whether a similar frequency pattern occurs in the cooler third-magnitude B7-8\,IIIe shell star $ν$ Pup. Time-series analyses are performed of space photometry with BRITE-Constellation (2015, 2016/17, and 2017/18), SMEI (2003--011), and Hipparcos (1989-1993). Two IUE SWP and 27 optical echelle spectra spanning 20 years were retrieved from various archives. The optical spectra exhibit no anomalies or well-defined variabilities. A magnetic field was not detected. All three photometry satellites recorded variability near 0.656 c/d which is resolved into three features separated by ~0.0021 c/d. First harmonics form a second frequency group, also spaced by ~0.0021 c/d. The frequency spacing is very nearly but not exactly equidistant. Variability near 0.0021 c/d was not detected. The long-term frequency stability could be used to derive meaningful constraints on the properties of a putative companion star. The IUE spectra do not reveal the presence of a hot subluminous secondary. $ν$\,Pup is another Be star exhibiting an NRP variability pattern with long-term constancy and underlining the importance of combination frequencies and frequency groups. The star is a good target for efforts to identify an effectively single Be star.

description: The behaviour of electromagnetic waves propagating through an electroweak homilia string network is examined. This string network is topologically stable as a cosmic texture, and is characterized by the spatial variation of the isospin rotation of the Higgs field. As a consequence the photon field couples to the intermediate vector bosons, producing a finite range electromagnetic field. It is found that the propagation speed of the photon depends on its polarization vector, whence an homilia string network acts as a birefringent medium. We estimate the birefringent scale for this texture and show that it depends on the frequency of the electromagnetic wave and the length scale of the homilia string network.

description: The fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fAPAR) is an important plant physiological index that is used to assess the ability of vegetation to absorb PAR, which is utilized to sequester carbon in the atmosphere. This index is also important for monitoring plant health and productivity, which has been widely used to monitor low stature crops and is a crucial metric for food security assessment. The fAPAR has been commonly correlated with a greenness index derived from spaceborne optical imagery, but the relatively coarse spatial or temporal resolution may prohibit its application on complex land surfaces. In addition, the relationships between fAPAR and remotely sensed greenness data may be influenced by the heterogeneity of canopies. Multispectral and hyperspectral unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imaging systems, conversely, can provide several spectral bands at sub-meter resolutions, permitting precise estimation of fAPAR using chemometrics. However, the data pre-processing procedures are cumbersome, which makes large-scale mapping challenging. In this study, we applied a set of well-verified image processing protocols and a chemometric model to a lightweight, frame-based and narrow-band (10 nm) UAV imaging system to estimate the fAPAR over a relatively large cultivated land area with a variety of low stature vegetation of tropical crops along with native and non-native grasses. A principal component regression was applied to 12 bands of spectral reflectance data to minimize the collinearity issue and compress the data variation. Stepwise regression was employed to reduce the data dimensionality, and the first, third and fifth components were selected to estimate the fAPAR. Our results indicate that 77% of the fAPAR variation was explained by the model. All bands that are sensitive to foliar pigment concentrations, canopy structure and/or leaf water content may contribute to the estimation, especially those located close to (720 nm) or within (750 nm and 780 nm) the near-infrared spectral region. This study demonstrates that this narrow-band frame-based UAV system would be useful for vegetation monitoring. With proper pre-flight planning and hardware improvement, the mapping of a narrow-band multispectral UAV system could be comparable to that of a manned aircraft system.

description: We use Bayesian methods to study anisotropic models for the distribution of gamma ray burst intensities and directions reported in the Third BATSE Catalog (3B catalog) of gamma ray bursts. We analyze data obtained using both the 64 ms and 1024 ms measuring timescales. We study both purely local models in which burst sources (``bursters'') are presumed to be distributed in extended halos about the Galaxy and M31, and mixed models consisting of a cosmological population of standard candle bursters and a local population distributed throughout a standard Bahcall-Soneira dark matter halo with a 2 kpc core. We find that the purely local models we have studied can account for the 3B data as successfully as cosmological models, provided one considers halos with core sizes significantly larger than those used to model the distribution of dark matter. We infer core sizes for the halo distribution that are smaller than one might expect based on popular semiquantitative arguments, and show why such arguments can lead to unwarranted conclusions. We also find that the 3B data do not constrain the width of power-law luminosity functions for burst sources. Our analysis of mixed models finds two families of models that can successfully account for the data: models with up to 20% of observed bursts in a bright local population visible to ~ 50 kpc; and models with up to 50% of observed bursts in a dim local population visible only nearby (to less than a disk scale height). These models fit as well or better than purely cosmological models. They indicate that a surprisingly large local, anisotropic component could be present whose size is comparable to the sizes of hypothetical classes of bursts inferred from analyses of temporal and spectral characteristics.

description: We study the early evolution of the electron fraction (or, alternatively, the neutron-to-proton ratio) in the region above the hot proto-neutron star formed after a supernova explosion. We study the way in which the electron fraction in this environment is set by a competition between lepton (electron, positron, neutrino, and antineutrino) capture processes on free neutrons and protons and nuclei. Our calculations take explicit account of the effect of nuclear composition changes, such as formation of alpha particles (the alpha effect) and the shifting of nuclear abundances in nuclear statistical equilibrium associated with cooling in near-adiabatic outflow. We take detailed account of the process of weak interaction freeze-out in conjunction with these nuclear composition changes. Our detailed treatment shows that the alpha effect can cause significant increases in the electron fraction, while neutrino and antineutrino capture on heavy nuclei tends to have a buffering effect on this quantity. We also examine the effect on weak rates and the electron fraction of fluctuations in time in the neutrino and antineutrino energy spectra arising from hydrodynamic waves. Our analysis is guided by the Mayle & Wilson supernova code numerical results for the neutrino energy spectra and density and velocity profiles.

description: We investigate the formation of dynamical gaugino condensates and supersymmetry breaking in the compactifications of Horava-Witten theory with perturbative nonstandard embeddings. Specific models are considered where the underlying massless charged states of the condensing sector are determined by the spectra of $Z_2 \times Z_2 $ and $Z_4 $ orbifolds with nonstandard embeddings. We find among them viable examples where gaugino condensation is triggered on the wall with the weakest gauge coupling at $M_{GUT} $. In all these cases the magnitude of the condensate formed is below the energy scales at which extra dimensions are resolved, and so justifies the analysis of condensation in an effective 4-dimensional framework. We make some comments concerning the size of the largest extra dimension in the models considered. We discuss racetrack scenarios in the framework of perturbative nonstandard embeddings.

description: People often communicate with reference to informally agreed places, such as “the city centre”. However, views of the spatial extent of such areas may vary, resulting in imprecise regions. We compare perceptions of Sheffield’s City Centre from a street survey to extents derived from various web-based sources. Such automated approaches have advantages of speed, cost and repeatability. We show that footprints from web sources are often in concordance with models derived from more labour-intensive methods. Notable exceptions however were found with sources advertising or selling residential property. Agreement between sources was measured by aggregating them to identify locations of consensus.

description: Motivated by forthcoming experiments at RHIC and LHC, and results from SPS, a review is given of the present state of event-by-event fluctuations in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Fluctuations in particle multiplicities, ratios, transverse momenta, rapidity, etc. are calculated in participant nucleon as well as thermal models. The physical observables, including multiplicity, kaon to pion ratios, and transverse momenta agree well with recent NA49 data at the SPS, and indicate that such studies do not yet reveal the presence of new physics. Predictions for RHIC and LHC energies are given. The centrality dependence with and without a phase transition to a quark-gluon plasma is discussed - in particular, how the physical quantities are expected to display a qualitative different behavior in case of a phase transition, and can be signaled by anomalous fluctuations and correlations in a number of observables.

description: We extend the Wilson renormalization group (RG) to supersymmetric theories. As this regularization scheme preserves supersymmetry, we exploit the superspace technique. To set up the formalism we first derive the RG flow for the massless Wess-Zumino model and deduce its perturbative expansion. We then consider N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills and show that the local gauge symmetry -broken by the regularization- can be recovered by a suitable choice of the RG flow boundary conditions. We restrict our analysis to the first loop, the generalization to higher loops presenting no difficulty due to the iterative nature of the procedure. Furthermore, adding matter fields, we reproduce the one-loop supersymmetric chiral anomaly to the second order in the vector field.

description: High energy neutrinos can be produced by interactions of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) in the dense radiation fields of their sources as well as off the cosmic backgrounds when they propagate through the universe. Multi-messenger interpretations of current measurements deeply rely on the understanding of these interactions. In order to efficiently produce neutrinos in the sources of UHECRs, at least a moderate level of interactions is needed, which means that a nuclear cascade develops if nuclei are involved. On the other hand, the available cross-section data and interaction models turn out to make poor predictions for most nuclei heavier than protons. We show the impact of these uncertainties in state-of-the-art photo-disintegration models and motivate nuclear cross-section measurements. Further, we discuss extensions for photo-meson models currently used in astrophysics and demonstrate the importance of understanding the details of UHECR interaction with the Glashow resonance.

description: We present new results on the Fundamental Plane of galaxies in two rich clusters, Cl1358+62 at $z=0.33$ and MS2053--04 at $z=0.58$, based on Keck and HST observations. Our new data triple the sample of galaxies with measured Fundamental Plane parameters at intermediate redshift. The early-type galaxies in these clusters define very clear Fundamental Plane relations, confirming an earlier result for Cl0024+16 at $z=0.39$. This large sample allows us to estimate the scatter reliably. We find it to be low, at 0.067 dex in $\log r_e$, or 17% in re, similar to that observed in comparable low redshift clusters. This suggests that the structure of the older galaxies has changed little since $z=0.58$. The $M/L_V$ ratios of early-type galaxies clearly evolve with redshift; the evolution is consistent with $Δ\log M/L_V \sim -0.3z$. The $M/L_V$ ratios of two E+A galaxies in Cl1358+62 are also lower by a factor of $\sim 3$, consistent with the hypothesis that they underwent a starburst 1 Gyr previously. We conclude that the Fundamental Plane can therefore be used as a sensitive diagnostic of the evolutionary history of galaxies. Our data, when compared to the predictions of simple stellar population models, imply that the oldest cluster galaxies formed at high redshift ($z > 2$). We infer a different evolutionary history for the E+A galaxies, in which a large fraction of stars formed at $z<1$. Larger samples spanning a larger redshift range are needed to determine the influence of starbursts on the general cluster population.

description: Objective: To provide an overview of existing instruments measuring patient-perceived quality of nursing care and to develop and psychometrically evaluate a new multidimensional scale applicable to the German acute care sector. Design: We conducted a scale development and validation study involving the following phases: (1) performing a structured literature search to identify existing scales, (2) generating an initial pool of items using the results of the literature search and expert interviews, (3) coding/categorising the item pool, (4) organising a peer researcher workshop to select relevant items, (5) drafting the survey questionnaire and conducting cognitive pretesting, (6) pilot testing the survey questionnaire, (7) administering the survey to a large sample of hospital patients and (8) conducting a psychometric evaluation comprising exploratory factor analysis using the survey results, followed by confirmatory factor analysis and reliability and validity assessment of the resulting draft scale. Survey participants: 17 859 recently hospitalised patients discharged from non-intensive care in non-paediatric and non-psychiatric hospital units in Germany between May and October 2019. Results: We identified 32 instruments comprising 635 items on nursing care quality. Alongside 135 indicators derived from expert interviews, these formed our initial item pool, which we coded into 15 categories. From this pool, 36 items were selected in the peer researcher workshop for pretesting and psychometric evaluation. Based on the results of our exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, we propose a second-order scale to measure Patients’ Experience of Nursing Quality in Acute Hospitals (PENQuAH), including the two higher-order dimensions ‘patients’ perception of direct nursing care activities’ and ‘patients’ perception of guidance provided by nurses’. The results of various tests suggest the scale has sufficient goodness of fit, reliability and validity. Conclusions: The PENQuAH scale is promising in terms of its psychometric properties, the plausibility and meaningfulness of its dimensions, and its ease of use.

description: The Americas contain highly biodiverse yet vulnerable ecosystems, with many threatened species inadequately protected. Finer-scale, localized habitat assessments are crucial for effective conservation planning, but continental-scale high-resolution vegetation maps remain limited. This study addresses this gap by identifying critical vegetation types across the Americas using the standardized framework of the International Vegetation Classification (IVC) system at the macrogroup level, representing the finest vegetation classification available across the region, as well as the highest-resolution Area of Habitat (AOH) maps currently available for birds and mammals. By combining these high-resolution IVC macrogroup maps with detailed AOH maps, we highlight at-risk vegetation types based on 1) threatened and macrogroup-associated species (species that have at least 50% of their AOH in one macrogroup), 2) current protection levels, and 3) projected threats from land use changes, and 4) develop a conservation value index (CVI) that accounts for all these factors. The results highlighted the remarkable diversity of high conservation value macrogroups across the Americas, emphasizing their significance in regions such as the Andes, montane Mesoamerica, the Caribbean, Brazil's Cerrado, and the Atlantic Forest. Among the highest-scoring macrogroups, the Northern Andean Montane & Upper Montane Humid Forest emerged as critically important, harboring a high number of threatened and macrogroup-associated species. Other macrogroups of immediate conservation concern include the Brazilian Atlantic Montane Humid Forest, Pacific Mesoamerican Seasonal Dry Forest, Caribbean Lowland Humid Forest, and Central Midwest Oak Forest, Woodland and Savanna. However, the study revealed that nearly three-quarters of the over 300 macrogroups in the Americas fall below the global target of 30% protection. Notably, a fifth of all species were macrogroup-associated species, including over 40% of threatened species. Our findings emphasize the need for targeted conservation strategies that consider finer-scale habitat classifications and paired with high-quality species distribution data to guide conservation strategies for biodiversity across the Americas.

description: We construct the (bosonic) effective worldvolume action of an M-theory Kaluza-Klein monopole in a background given by the bosonic sector of eleven-dimensional massive supergravity, i.e. a "massive Kaluza-Klein monopole". As a consistency check we show that the direct dimensional reduction along the isometry direction of the Taub-NUT space leads to the massive D-6-brane. We furthermore perform a double dimensional reduction in the massless case and obtain the effective worldvolume action of a type IIA Kaluza-Klein monopole.

description: This manuscript introduces the Alaali Economic Value Model (AEVM)—a proprietary, forward-looking valuation framework that addresses major limitations in traditional models such as DCF, EVA, and FCF. AEVM incorporates capital efficiency, liquidity risk, and sector-specific financial dynamics to generate more accurate and resilient firm valuations, particularly in capital-intensive industries.

The model is applied to Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) and Alcoa Corporation to demonstrate its real-world diagnostic value, revealing how AEVM detects inefficiencies overlooked by standard valuation methods. Unlike conventional models that rely on static growth assumptions and market sentiment, AEVM emphasizes financial sustainability, operational soundness, and capital deployment quality.

Important Note:The computational mechanics, scaling functions, and proprietary penalty modifiers within AEVM remain undisclosed to protect commercial confidentiality. This version is shared exclusively for academic visibility and authorship timestamping within the Alaali Financial Models Framework (AFMF).

description: Proof of the existence of a significant population of normal disk galaxies at redshift z>2 would have profound implications for theories of structure formation and evolution. We present evidence based on Keck HIRES observations that the damped Lyman-alpha absorber at z=3.15 toward the quasar Q2233+1310 may well be such an example. Djorgovski et al have recently detected the Lyman-alpha emission from the absorber, which we assume is at the systemic redshift of the absorbing galaxy. By examining the profiles of the metal absorption lines arising from the absorbing galaxy in relation to its systemic redshift, we find strong kinematical evidence for rotation. Therefore the absorber is likely to be a disk galaxy. The inferred circular velocity for the galaxy is >200 km/s. With a separation of ~17 kpc between the galaxy and the quasar sightline, the implied dynamic mass for the galaxy is >1.6x10(11) solar mass. The metallicity of the galaxy is found to be [Fe/H]=-1.4, typical of damped Lyman-alpha galaxies at such redshifts. However, in another damped galactic rotation is evident. In the latter case, the damped Lyman-alpha absorber occurs near the background quasar in redshift so its properties may be influenced by the background quasar. These represent the only two cases at present for which the technique used here may be applied. Future applications of the same technique to a large sample of damped Lyman-alpha galaxies may allow us to determine if a significant population of disk galaxies already existed only a few billion years after the Big Bang.

description: This investigation delves into the inhibitory capabilities of a specific set of triterpenoic acids on diverse isoforms of human carbonic anhydrase (hCA). Oleanolic acid (1), maslinic acid (2), betulinic acid (3), platanic acid (4), and asiatic acid (5) were chosen as representative triterpenoids for evaluation. The synthesis involved acetylation of parent triterpenoic acids 1–5, followed by sequential reactions with oxalyl chloride and benzylamine, de-acetylation of the amides, and subsequent treatment with sodium hydride and sulfamoyl chloride, leading to the formation of final compounds 21–25. Inhibition assays against hCAs I, II, VA, and IX demonstrated noteworthy outcomes. A derivative of betulinic acid, compound 23, exhibited a Ki value of 88.1 nM for hCA VA, and a derivative of asiatic acid, compound 25, displayed an even lower Ki value of 36.2 nM for the same isoform. Notably, the latter compound displayed enhanced inhibitory activity against hCA VA when compared to the benchmark compound acetazolamide (AAZ), which had a Ki value of 63.0 nM. Thus, this compound surpasses the inhibitory potency and isoform selectivity of the standard compound acetazolamide (AAZ). In conclusion, the research offers insights into the inhibitory potential of selected triterpenoic acids across diverse hCA isoforms, emphasizing the pivotal role of structural attributes in determining isoform-specific inhibitory activity. The identification of compound 25 as a robust and selective hCA VA inhibitor prompts further exploration of its therapeutic applications.

description: We present deep spectroscopic follow-up observations of the Bremer Deep Field (BDF) where the two $z\sim$7 bright Ly$α$ emitters (LAE) BDF521 and BDF3299 were previously discovered by Vanzella et al. (2011) and where a factor of $\sim$3-4 overdensity of faint LBGs has been found by Castellano et al. (2016). We confirm a new bright Ly$α$ emitter, BDF2195, at the same redshift of BDF521, $z=7.008$, and at only $\sim$90 kpc physical distance from it, confirming that the BDF area is likely an overdense, reionized region. A quantitative assessment of the Ly$α$ fraction shows that the number of detected bright emitters is much higher than the average found at z$\sim$7, suggesting a high Ly$α$ transmission through the inter-galactic medium (IGM). However, the line visibility from fainter galaxies is at odds with this finding, since no Ly$α$ emission is found in any of the observed candidates with $M_{UV}>$-20.25. This discrepancy can be understood either if some mechanism prevents Ly$α$ emission from fainter galaxies within the ionized bubbles from reaching the observer, or if faint galaxies are located outside the reionized area and bright LAEs are solely responsible for the creation of their own HII regions. A thorough assessment of the nature of the BDF region and of its sources of re-ionizing radiation will be made possible by JWST spectroscopic capabilities.

description: In this work, we apply multichannel singular spectrum analysis (MSSA), a data-adaptive, multivariate, non-parametric technique that simultaneously exploits the spatial and temporal correlations of the input data to extract common modes of variability, to investigate the intermediate quasi-periodicities of the Fe XIV green coronal emission line at 530.3 nm for the period between 1944 and 2008. Our analysis reveals several significant mid-term periodicities in a range from about one to four years that are consistent with the so-called quasi-biennial oscillations (QBOs), which have been detected by several authors using different data sets and analysis methods. These QBOs display amplitudes varying significantly with time and latitude over the six solar cycles (18 to 23) covered by this study. A clear North-South asymmetry is detected both in their intensity and period distribution, with a net predominance of spectral power in the active-region belt of the northern hemisphere. On the other hand, while the QBOs with periods > 1.7 years are particularly intense around the polar regions and therefore related to the global magnetic field, the ones with shorter periods are mainly generated at mid-latitudes, in correspondence with the emergence of active regions. Our findings indicate that the North-South asymmetry manifested in the uneven latitudinal distribution of QBOs is a fundamental, albeit puzzling, characteristic of solar activity.
