description: We investigate the choice of stellar population for use as the Astrometric Grid for the Space Interferometry Mission (SIM). SIM depends on the astrometric stability of about 2000 stars, the so called Grid, against which the science measures are referenced. Low metallicity, and thus relatively high luminosity K giants are shown to be the population of choice, when available. The alternative, nearby G dwarfs, are shown to be suseptable to unmodeled motions induced by gas-giant planetary companions, should there be a significant population of such companions. Radial velocity filtering is quite efficient in selecting Grid members from the K giants with yields exceeding 50% if filtering at 30m/s (1-sigma) is available. However if the binary fraction of the G dwarfs approaches 100% as some studies suggest, the yield of stable systems would be in the range of 15% at best (with 10m/s filtering). Use of the initial SIM measurement as a final filter is shown not to be critical in either case, although it could improve the yield of stable grid members. For a Grid composed of weak-lined K giants, the residual contamination by large unmodeled motions will amount to about 3% (and rises to about 6% if a 60m/s radial velocity criterion is used). The selective introduction of quadratic terms in the proper motion solutions during the post-mission phase of data reduction can reduce contamination to a remarkable 1% or better in either case. Analytic estimates based on circular orbits are developed which show how these results come about.

description: We find and investigate the optimal scheme of quantum distributed Gaussian sensing for estimation of the average of independent phase shifts. We show that the ultimate sensitivity is achievable by using an entangled symmetric Gaussian state, which can be generated using a single-mode squeezed vacuum state, a beam-splitter network, and homodyne detection on each output mode in the absence of photon loss. Interestingly, the maximal entanglement of a symmetric Gaussian state is not optimal although the presence of entanglement is advantageous as compared to the case using a product symmetric Gaussian state. It is also demonstrated that when loss occurs, homodyne detection and other types of Gaussian measurements compete for better sensitivity, depending on the amount of loss and properties of a probe state. None of them provide the ultimate sensitivity, indicating that non-Gaussian measurements are required for optimality in lossy cases. Our general results obtained through a full-analytical investigation will offer important perspectives to the future theoretical and experimental study for quantum distributed Gaussian sensing.

 Notes. This is another large species (7.0–8.5 mm) with a W-Mediterranean distribution, the presence of which in Sardinia, repeatedly reported in the literature (see above), was not confirmed by the study of the several collections. However, recently it was recorded from Corsica (Secq 1998); this, together with the records from mainland Italy cited by Penati and Vienna (2005, 2006a), allows us to suppose that the species could actually occur in Sardinia but was not found for many decades due to its rarity (Yélamos 2002) or that some specimens may be hidden in the collections, confused with melanic specimens of Hister quadrimaculatus (cf. Secq 1998; Yélamos 2002). In any case, its presence in Sardinia needs confirming.

 Notes. The first record of this Turano-European species for Sardinia seems to be that of Stein and Weise (1877), subsequently reported in a number of works despite never having been confirmed by any finding. Its presence on the island, already “ doubtful and in need of confirmation ” according to Penati and Vienna (2002), was not confirmed even after checking the numerous collections examined during the present work, and the single record from Spain is equally considered doubtful (Yélamos 2002: 166).
 Recently, the study of the Baudi di Selve collection allowed me to discover a Sardinian specimen of this species misidentified as “ Hister siculus Tourn. ” (see notes under A. debeauxi); in my opinion, this proves that the supposed presence of A. siculus in Sardinia was originally due to a misidentification (of this or of another specimen). In conclusion, Atholus siculus should not be included in the histerid fauna of Sardinia.

The first steps in such treatment appeared to be very instructive. It is shown that the alleged pion condensation anyway can not take place earlier than the restoration of the chiral symmetry. We demonstrate how the finite density QCD sum rules for nucleons work and advocate their possible role in providing an additional bridge between the condensate and hadron physics.

description: Machine learning algorithms are used progressively more in a wide range of different applications. A Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) is an especially effcient method for pattern recognition and feature extraction in large arrays. In this article, the idea behind CNN will be described leading to a basic understanding of the essential components in a CNN. The theory will be implemented in a simple CNN model to illustrate the coding of such a CNN using the Python library Keras and Google’s Tensorflowframework. The resulting model had an accuracy of 82%. This article shows how to reflect on CNN results in order to improve a model through many iterations. The implemented code illustrated how easy it is to build a intermediate CNN model, but also illustrates the diffculties in making an accurate and effcient model.

description: B and V photometry has been obtained for variable stars in the northeast arm of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Periods and lightcurves have been determined for 237 periodic variables, including 201 Cepheids, 68 of which are newly discovered. Fundamental mode Cepheids and first overtone mode Cepheids are generally well separated in the B,V color-magnitude diagram, with the latter having bluer mean colors than the former. The Cepheid period-color relationship for this outlying SMC field is indistinguishable from that seen in more centrally located SMC fields, and is bluer than theoretical predictions. The red edge to the populated portion of the instability strip shifts to bluer colors for fainter Cepheids. There is support from our sample for a previously reported steepening in the slope of the period-luminosity relation for fundamental mode Cepheids near a period of 2 days. The Cepheids of the northeast arm may be closer to us than are those of the main body of the SMC, but the difference is smaller than or equal to about 4 kpc, comparable to the tidal radius of the SMC.

The Legacy of Anglo-American Textualism

Publisher: name: Apollo - University of Cambridge Repository
Year: 2018
Subjects: textualism

Scalia

description: Textualism is the doctrine of statutory interpretation propounded by a small group of US federal court judges, including the late Justice Antonin Scalia. Whilst the doctrine has attracted a great deal of scholarly attention, few have considered its historical development. In this dissertation, textualism is analysed in order to uncover the core principles and sets of rules from which it is comprised. Then, the development of these principles and sets of rules is traced back through the treatises on statutory interpretation published in England and America in the Victorian era, which were well-known to and frequently cited by Justice Scalia. Textualism is revealed to be an Anglo-American doctrine that emerged over the course of the nineteenth century; and it was made explicit in the treatises on statutory interpretation, which developed via a transatlantic scholarly dialogue. The doctrine fell out of favour in the US as the nineteenth century drew to a close; and around the same time, the rule prohibiting recourse to legislative history, a core feature of textualism, became subject to significant judicial challenge in England. The matter was resolved by a landmark decision in 1906, after which time the doctrine became firmly entrenched in England until approximately the 1980s. Textualism’s long tenure in England demonstrates how a doctrinal common law theory typical of the late Victorian era persisted for more than a century despite variations in judicial application of the rules from which the doctrine is comprised, criticism from within the legal community, and significant social change over time. The modern US revival of this doctrine is further testament to textualism’s tenacity. Whilst many scholars have found the doctrine to be problematic, it has remained attractive to common law judges from the time of its emergence in the middle of the nineteenth century through to the present. This is so because textualism was developed and refined through doctrinal legal scholarship, and as a result, it is consistent with traditional common law modes of reasoning, and it is tailor-made to meet the needs of judges deciding cases.

 Notes. Despite being frequently recorded from Sardinia (see above) and Corsica, this species is endemic to mainland Sicily and the Egadi Islands (Sicily) (Luigioni 1929; Penati & Vienna 2002, 2005, 2006a). In fact, its presence in Sardinia (and Corsica) is not documented by any precise locality name in the literature (cf. Yélamos 1995), nor was it confirmed by any specimens in the examined collections; thus, the species should, without a doubt, be considered as absent from Sardinia.

description: We present a real-space renormalization group transformation with continuous scale change to calculate the continuous renormalization group $β$ function in non-perturbative lattice simulations. Our method is motivated by the connection between Wilsonian renormalization group and the gradient flow transformation. It does not rely on the perturbative definition of the renormalized coupling and is also valid at non-perturbative fixed points. Although our method requires an additional extrapolation compared to traditional step scaling calculations, it has several advantages which compensates for this extra step even when applied in the vicinity of the perturbative fixed point. We illustrate our approach by calculating the $β$ function of 2-flavor QCD and show that lattice predictions from individual lattice ensembles, even without the required continuum and finite volume extrapolations, can be very close to the result of the full analysis. Thus our method provides a non-perturbative framework and intuitive understanding into the structure of strongly coupled systems, in addition to being complementary to existing lattice determinations.

description: My PhD thesis concerns trade union responses to austerity in Belgium, Greece and Ireland (2008-2016). It explores the power resources trade unions in Europe have drawn on during these crisis years, and seeks to establish if unions are cultivating new sources of power and influence, as traditional sources wane. My research points to unions being under sustained pressure, but it also presents evidence of effective union revitalisation, including through the formation of new coalitions with civil society actors, through the use of innovative legal approaches to problem-solving, and with unions reaching out to new, often atypically-employed, groups of workers. Notably however, the national level remains the primary concern for unions, and the European Union (EU) level of action remains adjunct to what unions do.

description: We propose a method for depth estimation from light field data, based on a fully convolutional neural network architecture. Our goal is to design a pipeline which achieves highly accurate results for small- and wide-baseline light fields. Since light field training data is scarce, all learning-based approaches use a small receptive field and operate on small disparity ranges. In order to work with wide-baseline light fields, we introduce the idea of EPI-Shift: To virtually shift the light field stack which enables to retain a small receptive field, independent of the disparity range. In this way, our approach "learns to think outside the box of the receptive field". Our network performs joint classification of integer disparities and regression of disparity-offsets. A U-Net component provides excellent long-range smoothing. EPI-Shift considerably outperforms the state-of-the-art learning-based approaches and is on par with hand-crafted methods. We demonstrate this on a publicly available, synthetic, small-baseline benchmark and on large-baseline real-world recordings.

description: Having been operational at Kitt Peak for more than a year, the prototype of the Hungarian Automated Telescope (HAT-1) has been used for all-sky variability search of the northern hemisphere. The small autonomous observatory is recording brightness of stars in the range of I~6--13m with a telephoto lens and its 9x9 degree field of view, yielding a data rate of ~10^6 photometric measurements per night. We give brief hardware and software description of the system, controlled by a single PC running RealTime Linux operating system. We overview site-specific details, and quantify the astrometric and photometric capabilities of HAT. As a demonstration of system performance we give a sample of 60 short period variables in a single selected field, all bright, with I < 13m, of which only 14 were known before. Depending on the observing strategy, search for extrasolar planet transits is also a feasible observing program. We conclude with a short discussion on future directions.

description: Intellectual disability (ID) is categorised by a significant reduction in cognitive function and adaptive abilities that begin in childhood. ID is part of a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental conditions associated with impairment in developmental domains and a cause of particularly adverse socioeconomic impact worldwide. There have been many recent advances in identifying causative genetic mutations in previously unexplained ID cases. With these advances comes an increasing demand for understanding mechanisms underpinning these pathogenic pathways. In this PhD thesis, I have studied rare monogenic novel neurodevelopmental disorders associated with ID. The objective of the thesis was to model a subset of mutations associated with novel neurodevelopmental disorders in mice to demonstrate a causal link between mutation and phenotype and to further understand the mechanisms by which these mutations result in human neurodevelopmental disorders. In order to achieve this, I adopted a multi-phase approach. Firstly, I designed a phenotyping platform, by combining behavioural and cognitive tests with morphometric brain analysis and genome-wide transcriptional analysis. I then used this approach to study KPTN-related syndrome, a novel developmental disorder that to date has not been characterised in mice, successfully recapitulating the main phenotypes described in the patients. Moreover, I gained further insight into the underlying pathogenic mechanisms associated with the disorder, opening the possibility of a therapy that could treat some aspects of cognitive and morphological impairments identified in the patients with KPTN-related syndrome. Lastly, I determined whether such an approach could be scaled-up to study multiple novel neurodevelopmental disorders, each with a mutation associated with a haploinsufficient novel neurodevelopmental disorder. I identified specific phenotypes for each of the four mouse lines under investigation, providing a platform for comparison between several developmental disorders. These refinements contributed to a larger five-year project starting at the Sanger Institute, aimed at characterising a wider diversity of human neurodevelopmental disorders.

description: The South Asian country of Sri Lanka has a rapidly aging population, but little attention has been paid to individuals and families' financial preparedness for retirement. This study aims to overview the current system of retirement preparedness in Sri Lanka, and to examine financial and pension literacy's role on the retirement preparedness. Specifically, this study evaluated three domains of retirement preparedness: planning for retirement and perceived retirement income adequacy (subjective measures, n = 142), and wealth accumulation (objective measure, n = 115). Results show that (1) financial literacy had a positive and statistically significant association with retirement preparedness (only with objective measure), (2) pension literacy had a positive and statistically significant association with both subjective and objective measures of retirement preparedness, and (3) there was no synergic effect between financial literacy and pension literacy for retirement preparedness. Important policy implications, suggestions on financial education, and future research implications are discussed.

description: We calculate the low temperature longitudinal ultrasonic attenuation rate $α_S$ in clean d-wave superconductors. We consider the contribution of previously ignored processes involving the excitation of a pair of quasi-holes or quasi-particles. These processes, which are forbidden by energy conservation in conventional s-wave superconductors, have a finite phase space in d-wave superconductors due to the presence of nodes in the gap which give rise to soft low-energy electronic excitations. We find the contribution to $α_S$ from these processes to be proportional to $T$ in the regime $k_B T\ll Qv_Δ \ll Δ_0$,(ultra-low temperature regime) and to be proportional to 1/T in the region $Qv_F \ll k_BT \ll Δ_0$, (low temperature regime) where ${\bf Q}$ is the ultrasound wave-vector and $Δ_0$ is the maximum gap amplitude. We explicitly evaluate these terms, for parameters appropriate to the cuprates, for ${\bf Q}$ along the nodal and the antinodal directions and compare it with the contribution from processes considered earlier(I.Vekhter et al {\it Phys. Rev.}{\bf B59}, 7123(1999)). In the ultra-low temperature regime, the processes considered by us make a contribution which is smaller by about a factor of 10 for ${\bf Q}$ along the nodal direction, while along the antinodal direction it is larger by a factor of 100 or so. In the low temperature regime on the other hand the contribution made by these terms is small. However taken together with the original terms we describe a possible way to evaluate the parameter $v_F/v_Δ$.

description: The very first study of the development of the turbulent isothermal and incompressible air jet which issues at a constant velocity from a slender annular slot, circumnavigating an open core, into an otherwise quiescent and unbounded environment of the same density, is presented. The geometry of this source is defined by three diameters: the outer diameter of the slot $D_o$; the inner diameter of the slot $D_i$; and the diameter of the (circular) open core $D_v$. `Slender' refers to a slot for which the inner and outer diameters are approximately equal, i.e. $D_i/D_o\approx 1$. Our focus lies in understanding the development of the time-averaged flow with distance downstream and the influence of the source geometry on the development of the jet. Given the absence of information on jets issuing from the sources of interest, the investigation follows an approach reminiscent of the classic investigations into round jets. That is, it begins with the development of a nozzle and experimental set-up which are suitable for studying the slender open-core annular jet. In addition to the experimental measurements, a complementary mathematical model was developed to describe the unique near-field behaviour of the open-core jet. Measurements were acquired using flow visualisation and Particle Image Velocimetry. On examining the streamwise development of the flow, the slender almost fully open-core jet was delineated into four key regions and the characteristic scalings identified. The regions were as follows: a bounded induced-flow region; a near-source planar-jet region; a transitional region; and a far-field round-jet region. Fluid induced through the open core of the nozzle and subsequently entrained into the jet significantly enhanced the near-field dilution of the jet. Following on from this, the influence of the diameter ratio $D_i/D_o$ and ventilation ratio $D_v/D_i$ on jet coalescence was examined. Over the range of diameter ratios examined ($0.845 \leq D_i/D_o\leq 0.981$), experimental measurements and the predictions from mathematical modelling indicated that $D_i/D_o$ significantly influenced the volume flux induced through the core while the coalescing behaviour of the jet and the far-field region remained largely unchanged. Over the range of ventilation ratios examined ($0 \leq D_v/D_i\leq 0.90$), experimental measurements demonstrated that $D_v/D_i$ controlled the restriction experienced by fluid induced through the open core and significantly influenced the far-field behaviour of the jet. Our findings suggest that jet of interest is then uniquely characterised by the momentum flux $M_0$, the diameter ratio $D_i/D_o$, and the ventilation ratio $D_v/D_i$.

description: The concept of critical points in nuclear phase transitional regions is discussed from the standpoints of Q-invariants, simple observables and wave function entropy. It is shown that these critical points very closely coincide with the turning points of the discussed quantities, establishing the singular character of these points in nuclear phase transition regions between vibrational and rotational nuclei, with a finite number of particles.

Deflationary cosmology: constraints from angular size and ages of globular clusters

description: Observational constraints to a large class of decaying vacuum cosmologies are derived using the angular size data of compact radio sources and the latest age estimates of globular clusters. For this class of deflationary $Λ(t)$ models, the present value of the vacuum energy density is quantified by a positive $β$ parameter smaller than unity. In the case of milliarcsecond compact radio-sources, we find that the allowed intervals for $β$ and the matter density parameter $Ω_m$ are heavily dependent on the value of the mean projected linear size $l$. For $l \simeq 20h^{-1} - 30h^{-1}$ pc, the best fit occurs for $β\sim 0.58$, $Ω_{\rm{m}} \sim 0.58$, and $β\sim 0.76$, $Ω_{\rm{m}} \sim 0.28$, respectively. This analysis shows that if one minimizes $χ^{2}$ for the free parameters $l$, $Ω_{\rm{m}}$ and $β$, the best fit for these angular size data corresponds to a decaying $Λ(t)$ with $Ω_{\rm{m}} = 0.54$ $β=0.6$ and $l = 22.64h^{-1}$ pc. Constraints from age estimates of globular clusters and old high redshift galaxies are not so restrictive, thereby suggesting that there is no age crisis for this kind of $Λ(t)$ cosmologies.

description: The understanding of stellar structure represents the crossroads of our theories of the nuclear force and the gravitational interaction under the most extreme conditions observably accessible. It provides a powerful probe of the strong field regime of General Relativity, and opens fruitful avenues for the exploration of new gravitational physics. The latter can be captured via modified theories of gravity, which modify the Einstein-Hilbert action of General Relativity and/or some of its principles. These theories typically change the stellar structure equations, thus having a large impact on the astrophysical properties of the corresponding stars and opening a new window to constrain these theories with present and future observations. For relativistic (neutron) stars, the uncertainty on the equation of state of matter at supranuclear densities intertwines with the new parameters of the modified gravity side, providing new phenomenology for the predictions of stellar structure models, such as mass-radius relations, maximum masses, or moment of inertia. For non-relativistic stars (white, brown and red dwarfs), the weakening/strengthening of the gravitational force inside astrophysical bodies may induce changes on the star's mass, radius or luminosity, having an impact, for instance, in the Chandrasekhar's limit for white dwarfs, or in the minimum mass for stable hydrogen burning in brown dwarfs. This work aims to provide a broad overview of the main such results achieved in the recent literature, by combining the results and constraints obtained from the analysis of relativistic and non-relativistic stars in different scenarios. Moreover, we will build a bridge between the efforts of the community working on different theories, formulations, types of stars, theoretical modellings, and observational aspects, highlighting some of the most promising opportunities in the field.
