description: We aim to catalog all dust particles collected and analyzed by MIDAS, together with their main statistical properties such as size, height, basic shape descriptors, and collection time. Furthermore, we aim to present the scientific results that can be extracted from the catalog (e.g., the size distribution and statistical characteristics of cometary dust particles). The existing MIDAS particle catalog has been greatly improved by a careful re-analysis of the AFM images, leading to the addition of more dust particles and a detailed description of the particle properties. The catalog documents all images of identified dust particles and includes a variety of derived information tabulated one record per particle. Furthermore, the best image of each particle was chosen for subsequent studies. Finally, we created dust coverage maps and clustering maps of the MIDAS collection targets and traced any possible fragmentation of collected particles with a detailed algorithm. The revised MIDAS catalog includes 3523 MIDAS particles in total, where 1857 particles are expected to be usable for further analysis (418 scans of particles before perihelion + 1439 scans of particles after perihelion, both after the removal of duplicates), ranging from about 40 nm to about 8 $μ$m in size. The mean value of the equivalent radius derived from the 2D projection of the particles is 0.91 ${\pm}$ 0.79 $μ$m. A slightly improved equivalent radius based on the particle's volume coincides in the range of uncertainties with a value of 0.56 ${\pm}$ 0.45 $μ$m. We note that those sizes and all following MIDAS particle size distributions are expected to be influenced by the fragmentation of MIDAS particles upon impact on the collection targets. Furthermore, fitting the slope of the MIDAS particle size distribution with a power law of a r ${^b}$ yields an index b of ${\sim}$ -1.67 to -1.88.

description: Alternative cassette exons are known to originate from two processes exonization of intronic sequences and exon shuffling. Herein, we suggest an additional mechanism by which constitutively spliced exons become alternative cassette exons during evolution. We compiled a dataset of orthologous exons from human and mouse that are constitutively spliced in one species but alternatively spliced in the other. Examination of these exons suggests that the common ancestors were constitutively spliced. We show that relaxation of the 59 splice site during evolution is one of the molecular mechanisms by which exons shift from constitutive to alternative splicing. This shift is associated with the fixation of exonic splicing regulatory sequences (ESRs) that are essential for exon definition and control the inclusion level only after the transition to alternative splicing. The effect of each ESR on splicing and the combinatorial effects between two ESRs are conserved from fish to human. Our results uncover an evolutionary pathway that increases transcriptome diversity by shifting exons from constitutive to alternative splicing
3D Radiation Hydrodynamic Simulations of Gravitational Instability in AGN Accretion Disks: Effects of Radiation Pressure

description: We perform 3D radiation hydrodynamic local shearing box simulations to study the outcome of gravitational instability (GI) in optically thick Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) accretion disks. GI develops when the Toomre parameter QT \leq 1, and may lead to turbulent heating that balances radiative cooling. However, when radiative cooling is too efficient, the disk may undergo runaway gravitational fragmentation. In the fully gas-pressure-dominated case, we confirm the classical result that such a thermal balance holds when the Shakura-Sunyaev viscosity parameter (alpha) due to the gravitationally-driven turbulence is \sim 0.2, corresponding to dimensionless cooling times Omega tcool \sim 5. As the fraction of support by radiation pressure increases, the disk becomes more prone to fragmentation, with a reduced (increased) critical value of alpha (omega tcool). The effect is already significant when the radiation pressure exceeds 10% of the gas pressure, while fully radiation-pressure-dominated disks fragment at Omega tcool <50 . The latter translates to a maximum turbulence level alpha<0.02, comparable to that generated by Magnetorotational Instability (MRI). Our results suggest that gravitationally unstable (QT \sim 1) outer regions of AGN disks with significant radiation pressure (likely for high/near- Eddington accretion rates) should always fragment into stars, and perhaps black holes.

description: This collection of essays poses a series of questions revolving around nonsense, cacophony, queerness, race, and the dancing body. How can flamenco, as a diasporic complex of performance and communities of practice frictionally and critically bound to the complexities of Spanish history, illuminate theories of race and identity in performance? How can we posit, and argue for, genealogical relationships within and between genres across the vast expanses of the African—and Roma—diaspora? Neither are the essays presented here limited to flamenco, nor, consequently, are the responses to these questions reduced to this topic. What all the contributions here do share is the wish to come together, across disciplines and subject areas, within the academy and without, in the whirling, raucous, and messy spaces where the body is free—to celebrate its questioning, as well as the depths of the wisdom and knowledge it holds and sometimes reveals.

description: The Hamiltonian approach to black hole entropy, recently proposed in the framework of Poincaré gauge theory, is extended by including the scalar matter. The improved approach is used to analyse asymptotic charges and entropy of a typical black hole with scalar hair in two complementary dynamical settings, in GR and in the teleparallel gravity. In both cases, the results confirm the validity of the first law.

title: Financial Operations of the Agricultural Credit Corporation in Jordan
Creators: name: Taqieddin, Nureddin A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1968

description: Agriculture is the backbone of Jordan's economy. It provides employment and a living for 40 per cent or more of the total population. However, very few farmers have accumulated enough capital to finance their farm operations from planting to harvest. The Agricultural Credit Corporation was established to provide farmers with credit at a relatively low cost. Without the low cost loans many farmers cannot s tay on their farms. The Agricultural Credit Corporation is the most important agency in terms of the direct help it offers to farmers.
The Agricultural Credit Corporation has followed a policy of making loans at a relatively low rates of interest. As a result they have had difficulty in obtaining loans from competitive markets to meet their needs. This problem has been accentuated by a persistently low level of collections from its loans. Apparently they expect to collect no more than 85 per cent of its claims. However, during the year 1965-66 collections were only 44 per cent of the principal after excluding doubtful loans, and 43 percent for interest.
The weaknesses of the Corporation Administration appear to be:
(a) Lack of studies to determine how well the corporation is serving the needs of agricultural borrowers.
(b) Lack of planning for improvement in the future.
(c) Loopholes in lending rules and procedure.
(d) The low limits on loans to farmers.
(e) Regulations that property offered as security for a loan should not exceed 60 per cent of the value of the mortgaged property.
(f) Frequency of seasons in which drought occurs and results in the inability of farmers to make payments on their loans.
It is recommended that the ACC should continue to seek low cost credit from sources such as the International Development Association and similar agencies. It is also recommended ACC use all of its financial resources in lending operations instead of depositing them in commercial banks.
Recommendations for correcting the existing weaknesses:
(a) The Corporation should develop repayment schedules for each borrower at the time the loan is made. These should be adhered to by both the borrower and the lender. The statistics and research section of the ACC should be assigned responsibility of the schedule of repayments.
(b) Procedures for appraising the value of property offered as security for a loan should be developed and used as a part of every application for a loan and before any loan has been made.
(c) The upper limit on loans should be raised to 100 per cent of the appraised value of the security mortgaged rather than the present 60 per cent of loans.
(d) The Corporation should establish a special fund from which emergency loans could be issued to drought stricken areas. These funds should be provided by the Treasury. This should improve the rate of collection of loans when they are due.

description: Confining energetic ions such as alpha particles is a prime concern in the design of stellarators. However, directly measuring alpha confinement through numerical simulation of guiding-center trajectories has been considered to be too computationally expensive and noisy to include in the design loop, and instead has been most often used only as a tool to assess stellarator designs post hoc. In its place, proxy metrics, simplified measures of confinement, have often been used to design configurations because they are computationally more tractable and have been shown to be effective. Despite the success of proxies, it is unclear what is being sacrificed by using them to design the device rather than relying on direct trajectory calculations. In this study, we optimize stellarator designs for improved alpha particle confinement without the use of proxy metrics. In particular, we numerically optimize an objective function that measures alpha particle losses by simulating alpha particle trajectories. While this method is computationally expensive, we find that it can be used successfully to generate configurations with low losses.

description: Three analytic solutions to the Schrödinger equation for the time-dependent Landau-Zener Hamiltonian are presented. They correspond to specific finite-time driving paths in a bounded parameter space of a two-level system. Two of these paths go through the avoided crossing of levels, either with a constant speed or with variable speed that decreases in the region of reduced energy gap, the third path bypasses the crossing such that the energy gap remains constant. The solutions yield exact time dependencies of the excitation probability for the system evolving from the ground state of the initial Hamiltonian. The Landau-Zener formula emerges as an approximation valid within a certain interval of driving times for the constant-speed driving through the avoided crossing. For long driving times, all solutions converge to the prediction of the adiabatic perturbation theory. The excitation probability vanishes at some discrete time instants.

Improving classical capacity of qubit dynamical maps through stationary state manipulation

description: We analyze the evolution of Holevo and entanglement-assisted classical capacities for a special class of phase-covariant channels. In particular, we show that these capacities can be improved by changing the stationary state of the channel, which is closely related to its non-unitality degree. The more non-unital the channel, the greater its capacity. The channel parameters are engineered through mixtures on the level of dynamical maps, time-local generators, and memory kernels, for which we propose construction methods. For highly non-unital maps, we achieve a temporary increase in the classical capacity that exceeds the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of the unital map. This shows that non-unitality can become a better quantum resource for information transition purposes than quantum entanglement.

description: We map narrow-line regions (NLRs) of 11 nearby Seyfert 2 galaxies with the optical integral-field spectrograph OASIS mounted at CFHT. We model emission-line profiles of 5 forbidden-line doublets and 2 Balmer lines, correcting for the underlying stellar absorption by reconstructing stellar spectra with synthetic evolutionary stellar population models. For each of the 11 targets, we present 2D maps of surface brightness in the observed emission lines, diagnostic line intensity ratios, gas kinematics (mean line-of-sight velocity and velocity dispersion), electron density, and interstellar reddening, and we plot spatially resolved spectral-diagnostic diagrams. The stellar data are represented by maps of mean line-of-sight (LOS) velocities and of the relative mass fractions of the young stellar populations. The gas velocity fields in 80% of the sample exhibit twisted S-shaped isovelocity contours, which are signatures of non-circular orbits and indicate non-axisymmetric gravitational potentials, gas motions out of the galactic plane, or possible outflows and inflows. Based on the kinematic measurements, we identified a possible nuclear ring or radial gas flow in NGC 262 (Mrk 348), not reported before. Eight of the eleven observed objects exhibit strongly asymmetric or multi-component emission-line profiles, in most cases confined to an elongated region passing through the galactic centre, perpendicular to the major axis of emission.

description: We derive covariant equations describing the tetraquark in terms of an admixture of two-body states $D\bar D$ (diquark-antidiquark), $MM$ (meson-meson), and three-body-like states $q\bar q (T_{q\bar q})$, $q q (T_{\bar q\bar q})$, and $\bar q\bar q (T_{qq})$ where two of the quarks are spectators while the other two are interacting (their t matrices denoted correspondingly as $T_{q\bar q}$, $T_{\bar q\bar q}$, and $T_{qq}$). This has been achieved by describing the $qq\bar q\bar q$ system using the Faddeev-like four-body equations of Khvedelidze and Kvinikhidze [Theor. Math. Phys. 90, 62 (1992)] while retaining all two-body interactions (in contrast to previous works where terms involving isolated two-quark scattering were neglected). As such, our formulation, is able to unify seemingly unrelated models of the tetraquark, like, for example, the $D\bar D$ model of the Moscow group [Faustov et al., Universe 7, 94 (2021)] and the coupled channel $D \bar D-MM$ model of the Giessen group [Heupel et al., Phys.

Milton's view of human destiny
Creators: name: Anonby, John August
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this thesis is to prove that Milton was keenly interested in the process of time and made use of historical materials to demonstrate in his poetry and prose his belief that God's omnipotent will controlled human destiny. While Milton's formalized attempts at history-portrayal were confined to his Brief History of Moscovia and History of Britain, his fascination for history was also expressed in his political and social treatises as well as in the great epic poems that he wrote during the final period of his life. Milton's view of human destiny closely resembled the traditional Christian concept of history as formulated by St. Augustine in The City of God. The providential, universalistic epochal and teleological aspects of the Christian view of history were all present in Milton's concept of the destiny of man. Milton, however, did not merely reproduce these traditional ideas; he transformed them to fit his conception of God's will dynamically operating in the affairs of man. This thesis attempts to show that Milton did not reproduce historical material for its own sake. His prime concern was "to instruct and benefit" the reader. The theme which Milton wished to convey was two-fold. Firstly, he demonstrated that God's will was sovereign; nothing transpired in history apart from the controlling will of God. Secondly, Milton stressed the idea that, while God's will was an indisputable absolute, the free will of man was operative in history. There was, therefore, a direct connection between the process of history and human moral behavior. Man's chief responsibility on earth was to conform voluntarily to God's revealed will. Milton thus profusely illustrated from biblical and secular history that individuals and nations who disobeyed the will of God lapsed inevitably into political, domestic, and spiritual bondage. As far as Milton was concerned, there was no liberty apart from submission to the will of God. In this thesis an attempt has been made to apply the term "Baroque" to Milton's portrayal of human destiny. In spite of his antipathy towards Roman Catholic institutions and practices, Milton demonstrated in his poetry the sense of certainty and affirmation which characterized the Baroque painting and architecture of Italy after the Counter-Reformation. By means of panorama, spectacle, and dynamism—techniques which have been considered by many critics as particularly apparent in Baroque art— Milton portrayed his concept of the dominating, unifying, and benevolent will of God dynamically controlling and directing human destiny.
Cluster dynamical mean-field study of the Hubbard model on a 3D frustrated hyperkagome lattice

description: We study the Hubbard model on a geometrically-frustrated hyperkagome lattice by a cluster extension of the dynamical mean field theory. We calculate the temperature ($T$) dependences of the specific heat ($C$) and the spin-lattice relaxation time ($T_1$) in correlated metallic region. $C/T$ shows a peak at $T=T_{p1}$ and rapidly decreases as $T->0$. On the other hand, $1/T_1T$ has a peak at a higher temperature $T_{p2}$ than $T_{p1}$, and largely decreases below $T_{p2}$, followed by the Korringa law $1/T_1 propto T$ as $T->0$. Both peak temperatures are suppressed and the peaks become sharper as electron correlation is increased. These behaviors originate from strong renormalization of the energy scales in the peculiar electronic structure in this frustrated system; a pseudo-gap like feature, the van-Hove singularity, and the flat band. The results are discussed in comparison with the experimental data in the hyperkagome material, Na$_4$Ir$_3$O$_8$.

An explicit definition of the timelike EE in 2d field theories is provided followed by numerical computations which agree with the analytic continuation of the replica method for CFTs. We argue that timelike EE should be correctly interpreted as another measure previously considered, the pseudo entropy, which is the von Neumann entropy of a reduced transition matrix. Our results strongly imply that the imaginary part of the pseudo entropy describes an emergent time which generalizes the notion of an emergent space from quantum entanglement. For holographic systems we define the timelike EE as the total complex valued area of a particular stationary combination of both space and timelike extremal surfaces which are homologous to the boundary region. For the examples considered we find explicit matching of our optimization procedure and the careful implementation of the Wick rotation in the boundary CFT. We also make progress on higher dimensional generalizations and relations to holographic pseudo entropy in de Sitter space.

description: Examination of the human transcriptome reveals higher levels of RNA editing than in any other organism tested to date. This is indicative of extensive double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) formation within the human transcriptome. Most of the editing sites are located in the primate-specific retrotransposed element called Alu. A large fraction of Alus are found in intronic sequences, implying extensive Alu-Alu dsRNA formation in mRNA precursors. Yet, the effect of these intronic Alus on splicing of the flanking exons is largely unknown. Here, we show that more Alus flank alternatively spliced exons than constitutively spliced ones; this is especially notable for those exons that have changed their mode of splicing from constitutive to alternative during human evolution. This implies that Alu insertions may change the mode of splicing of the flanking exons. Indeed, we demonstrate experimentally that two Alu elements that were inserted into an intron in opposite orientation undergo base-pairing, as evident by RNA editing, and affect the splicing patterns of a downstream exon, shifting it from constitutive to alternative. Our results indicate the importance of intronic Alus in influencing the splicing of flanking exons, further emphasizing the role of Alus in shaping of the human transcriptome

description: In real-world scenarios, trusted execution environments (TEEs) frequently host applications that lack the trust of the infrastructure provider, as well as data owners who have specifically outsourced their data for remote processing. We present Twine, a trusted runtime for running WebAssembly-compiled applications within TEEs, establishing a two-way sandbox. Twine leverages memory safety guarantees of WebAssembly (Wasm) and abstracts the complexity of TEEs, empowering the execution of legacy and language-agnostic applications. It extends the standard WebAssembly system interface (WASI), providing controlled OS services, focusing on I/O. Additionally, through built-in TEE mechanisms, Twine delivers attestation capabilities to ensure the integrity of the runtime and the OS services supplied to the application. We evaluate its performance using general-purpose benchmarks and real-world applications, showing it compares on par with state-of-the-art solutions. A case study involving fintech company Credora reveals that Twine can be deployed in production with reasonable performance trade-offs, ranging from a 0.7x slowdown to a 1.17x speedup compared to native run time. Finally, we identify performance improvement through library optimisation, showcasing one such adjustment that leads up to 4.1x speedup. Twine is open-source and has been upstreamed into the original Wasm runtime, WAMR.

description: Psoriaas (Ps) on põletikuline, geneetilise eelsoodumusega ja kroonilise kuluga dermatoos, mille puhul etendavad olulist osa haigust soodustavad/provotseerivad tegurid ning immunoloogilised protsessid (1, 2). Psoriaatiline artriit (PsA) on psoriaasiga assotsieeruv artriit, mis kuulub spondüloartropaatiate hulka (2, 3). 70%-l psoriaasihaigetest ilmneb artriit alles aastaid pärast nahakahjustuse vallandumist ning
1/10-l haigetest ägenevad ühel ajal nii nahanähud kui ka artriit. Artriidi vallandumine psoriaasi korral viib sageli invaliidsuse kujunemiseni ning selle vältimiseks on vajalik pidev süsteemne ravi (2).

description: The addition of particles to turbulent flows changes the underlying mechanism of turbulence and leads to turbulence modulation. Different temporal and spatial scales for both phases make it challenging to understand turbulence modulation via one parameter. The important parameters are particle Stokes number, mass loading, particle Reynolds number, fluid bulk Reynolds number, etc., that act together and affect the fluid phase turbulence intensities. In the present study, we have carried out the large eddy simulations for different system sizes (2δ/dp = 54, 81, and 117) and fluid bulk Reynolds numbers (Re_b = 5600 and 13750) to quantify the extent of turbulence attenuation. Here, δ is the half-channel width, dp is the particle diameter, and Re_b is the fluid Reynolds number based on the fluid bulk velocity and channel width. The point particles are tracked with the Lagrangian approach. The scaling analysis of the feedback force shows that system size and fluid bulk Reynolds number are the two crucial parameters that affect the turbulence modulation more significantly than the other. The streamwise turbulent structures are observed to become lengthier and fewer with an increase in system size for the same volume fraction and fixed bulk Reynolds number. However, the streamwise high-speed streaks are smaller, thinner, and closely spaced for higher Reynolds numbers than the lower ones for the same volume fraction. In particle statistics, it is observed that the scaled particle fluctuations increase with the increase in system size while keeping the Reynolds number fixed. However, the scaled particle fluctuations decrease with the increase in fluid bulk Reynolds number for the same volume fraction and fixed system size. The present study highlights the scaling issue for designing industrial equipment for particle-laden turbulent flows.

description: A decade ago, Isham and Butterfield proposed a topos-theoretic approach to quantum mechanics, which meanwhile has been extended by Doering and Isham so as to provide a new mathematical foundation for all of physics. Last year, three of the present authors redeveloped and refined these ideas by combining the C*-algebraic approach to quantum theory with the so-called internal language of topos theory (see arXiv:0709.4364). The goal of the present paper is to illustrate our abstract setup through the concrete example of the C*-algebra of complex n by n matrices. This leads to an explicit expression for the pointfree quantum phase space and the associated logical structure and Gelfand transform of an n-level system. We also determine the pertinent non-probabilisitic state-proposition pairing (or valuation) and give a very natural topos-theoretic reformulation of the Kochen--Specker Theorem. The essential point is that the logical structure of a quantum n-level system turns out to be intuitionistic, which means that it is distributive but fails to satisfy the law of the excluded middle (both in opposition to the usual quantum logic).

description: Magnetic refrigeration (MR) based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is a promising alternative to conventional vapor compression refrigeration techniques. The cooling efficiency of a magnetic refrigerator depends on its refrigeration capacity and operation frequency. Existing refrigerators possess limited cooling efficiency due to the low operating frequency (around tens of Hz). Theory predicts that reducing geometrical effects can increase the operation frequency by reducing the relaxation time of a magnetic material. As compared to other shapes, magnetocaloric wires transfer heat most effectively to a surrounding environment, due to their enhanced surface area. The wire shape also yields a good mechanical response, reducing the relaxation time and consequently increasing the operation frequency of the cooling device. Experiments have validated the theoretical predictions. By assembling microwires with different magnetocaloric properties and Curie temperatures into a laminate structure, a table-like magnetocaloric bed can be created and used as an active cooling device for micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) and nano-electro-mechanical system (NEMS). This paper assesses recent progress in the development of magnetocaloric microwires and sheds light on the important factors affecting the magnetocaloric behavior and cooling efficiency in microwire systems. Challenges, opportunities, and strategies regarding the development of advanced magnetocaloric microwires are also discussed.

description: We apply Srednicki's regularization to extract the logarithmic term in the entanglement entropy produced by tracing out a real, massless, scalar field inside a three dimensional sphere in 3+1 flat spacetime. We find numerically that the coefficient of the logarithm is -1/90 to 0.2 percent accuracy, in agreement with an existing analytical result.
Eskimo political organization: a behavioural approach
Creators: name: Babcock, Douglas Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The state-stateless dichotomy in political anthropology, based on the criterion of government in a legal-structural sense, leads to the "ordered anarchy" designation of some primitive societies such as the Eskimo. The dichotomy apparently stems from a pre-occupation with Western forms of government. This ethnocentric, structural bias invalidates many of the conclusions to be found in the literature regarding primitive societies, and has important implications for current research methods. A tentative analytic framework is outlined for political organization, here construed as a process rather than a substantive structure, utilizing the interrelated concepts of power or influence, and decision- making. Influence or power, defined as the ability to get others to act, think, or feel as one intends, is an attribute of social relationships. Its dimensions include sources, means, scopes, extension, amount, costs, and strength. Political organization is regarded as the process by which decisions of group range are effected by influentials (i.e., individuals wielding power or influence). Some of the literature relating to the political organization of Eskimo groups is reviewed and found to be unanimous in its apolitical designation of the Eskimo. Five cases, utilizing published behavioral data, illustrate the usefulness of the power-decision framework for political organization, but serious limitations are imposed by the incomplete range of the data. A specific Eskimo aggregation for which considerable background material is available is then considered in its political aspects, and within the limits of the range of data, support is again provided for the present framework. The methodological truism that basic assumptions should guide but not predetermine research conclusions is illustrated by the foregoing.

description: We re-analyse the bulk reconstruction for a scalar field in Lorentzian AdS spacetime, both for the case of even and odd dimensions, for an extended range of conformal dimensions where the original HKLL reconstruction has to be modified. We also discuss the use of space-like Green's functions in the bulk reconstruction. We demonstrate that in the extended range also the singular part of the Green's function, omitted in the original papers, has be included. The results are particularly simple and physically interesting for integer conformal dimensions below the range considered in the original HKLL papers.
