description: We identify the quantum isometry groups of spectral triples built on the symmetric groups with length functions arising from the nearest-neighbor transpositions as generators. It turns out that they are isomorphic to certain "doubling" of the group algebras of the respective symmetric groups. We discuss the doubling procedure in the context of regular multiplier Hopf algebras. In the last section we study the dependence of the isometry group of S_n on the choice of generators in the case n=3. We show that two different choices of generators lead to non-isomorphic quantum isometry groups which exhaust the list of non-commutative non-cocommutative semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension 12. This provides non-commutative geometric interpretation of these Hopf algebras.

Resumen: La ‘otra’ Europa – La construcción de la identidad nacional en el siglo XIX y el cuerpo orientalizado de la ‘Española’

Year: 2020

description: La idea de la ‘maja’, una joven y sensual mujer trabajadora española de orígenes humildes, circulaba en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX como un ideal de la ‘otra’ y erótica feminidad en toda Europa. La ‘maja’ fusiona ideas de la feminidad tradicional ibérica, de las ‘gitanas’, de las bailaoras de flamenco de Andalucía y de la mujer ‘oriental’ del norte de África. Con la imagen de la ‘maja’, el sur de España llega a representar a toda la nación; así, la ‘maja’ se convierte en una alegoría nacional. El artículo aborda la compleja interacción de la adaptación de una perspectiva externa a la propia identidad y la construcción de la nación a través de la imagen alegórica de una mujer joven, por un lado, y la mitificación de esta imagen en la recepción fuera de España, por el otro. Se analiza los aspectos de una imaginación y representación de la nación española feminizada y sexualizada, y se contextualiza sus modos de recepción considerando pinturas, fotografías e imágenes populares.

description: We extend the geometric measure of quantum discord, introduced and computed for two-qubit states in [B. Dakic, C. Brukner, and V. Vedral, Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 190502 (2010)], to quantify non-classical correlations in composite Gaussian states of continuous variable systems. We lay the formalism for the evaluation of a Gaussian geometric discord in two-mode Gaussian states, and present explicit formulas for the class of two-mode squeezed thermal states. In such a case, under physical constraints of bounded mean energy, geometric discord is shown to admit upper and lower bounds for a fixed value of the conventional (entropic) quantum discord. We finally discuss alternative geometric approaches to quantify Gaussian quadrature correlations.

description: We predict the phenomenon of antiferroelectric resonance (AFER), in which an ac electric field causes magnetic ions located at noncentrosymmetric positions in a multi-sublattice magnet to undergo magnetic transitions corresponding to exchange collective excitations of the system. We construct a theory of such resonances, and show that in magnets with collinear magnetic structures AFER is caused by relativistic and exchange-relativistic magnetoelectric interactions, while in the noncollinear magnets a significant contribution can also come from the exchange magnetoelectric interaction. We predict an exchange enhancement of the resonance by exchange modes, and discuss the role of AFER in causing resonant enhancement of magnetooptical phenomena. The main results of our theory are illustrated with the four-sublattice rhombohedral antiferromagnets α-Fe_2O_3 and Cr_2O_3, as examples.

description: A "super-atom" conceptual interface between chemistry and physics is proposed in order to assist in the search for higher TC superconductors. High-TC superconductivity HTSC is articulated as the entanglement of two disjoint electronic manifolds in the vicinity of a common Fermi energy. The resulting HTSC ground state couples near-degenerate protected local "super-atom" states to virtual magnons in an antiferromagnetic AFM embedding. The composite Cooper pairs emerge as the interaction particles for virtual magnons mediated "self-coherent entanglement" of super-atom states. A Hückel type resonating valence bond RVB formalism is employed in order to illustrate the real-space Cooper pairs as well as their delocalization and Bose Einstein condensation BEC on a ring of super-atoms. The chemical potential μ(BEC) for Cooper pairs joining the condensate is formulated in terms of the super-exchange interaction, and consequently the TC in terms of the Neél temperature. A rationale for the robustness of the HTSC ground state is proposed: achieving local maximum "electron correlation entropy" at the expense of non-local phase rigidity.

description: Based on the non-Euclidean transformation optics, we design a thin metamaterial lens that can achieve wide-beam radiation by embedding a simple source (a point source in three-dimensional case or a line current source in two-dimensional case). The scheme is performed on a layer-by-layer geometry to convert curved surfaces in virtual space to flat sheets, which pile up and form the entire lens in physical space. Compared to previous designs, the lens has no extreme material parameters. Simulation results confirm its functionality.

Madero de la Ciudad de México. En ella se representa con gran detalle un episodio de la solemne procesión que tuvo lugar en la ciudad de México el 29 de octubre de 1727. Se observa el regreso de la imagen de la Virgen de Loreto al colegio de San Gregorio después de la novena celebrada en la catedral de México, cuyo objetivo fue implorar su socorro para acabar con la epidemia que asolaba a la capital. Es una de esas escasas y ricas fuentes empapadas de un instante de vida cotidiana que, además, permite apreciar el uso político, social y ritual del espacio urbano en el ejercicio del poder al poner en escena, públicamente, la jerarquía social y -después- conmemorarla pictóricamente. Se propone que la pintura conmemora una alianza entre los jesuitas y las más altas autoridades novohispanas.

Year: 2022

description: Plastics pollution in the aquatic environments represents one of the most critical worldwide issue. Every year, million tons of waste products are reversed both in marine and freshwaters, persisting for long timings and determining serious effects to living organisms. Here, these synthetic materials are fragmented in small particles, known as micro- and nanoplastics, under the effects of both biotic and abiotic factors. Due to their characteristics, smaller fragments are easier accumulated inside animal tissues and organs, risking to enter in the trophic chain. To date, despite the current situation, only a small amount of research has been conducted, especially on aquatic invertebrates, which can represent a suitable model for better analyzing the possible plastics dangerous effects. For this reason, in the present review we aim to collect the recent information about micro and nanoplastics effects on both marine and freshwaters invertebrates. In particular, we do not only focus the attention on the obtained results, but also, we report the main experimental methods and particle types used. Regardless of the heterogeneity present in literature, the actual data result fundamental for setting up the future research.

We compare the resummed higher-twist cross sections with the ones obtained in the framework of the frozen coupling approach and leading-twist cross section. Also, we show that in the context of frozen coupling approach a higher-twist contribution to the photon-photon collisions cross section is normalized in terms of the pion electromagnetic form factor.

description: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a product of normal metabolism of aerobic cells, but excess ROS is harmful to the organism. Copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu-Zn SOD) is a metalloenzyme for scavenging ROS. In this study, two extracellular Cu-Zn SOD genes (designated as LvEcSOD1 and LvEcSOD2) were cloned by rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) technique. The cDNA length of LvEcSOD1 is 801 bp, with an open reading frame (ORF) of 555 bp, encoding a peptide of 184 amino acids. The cDNA length of LvEcSOD2 is 934 bp with an ORF of 678 bp, encoding a peptide of 225 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequences of the two LvEcSOD both contained conserved four Cu2+ binding sites and four Zn2+ binding sites. The mRNA scripts of LvEcSOD1 and LvEcSOD2 were widely detectable in the eyestalk, gill, gonad, heart, hemocytes, hepatopancreas, intestine, muscle, nerve, and stomach of Litopenaeus vannamei. Both LvEcSOD1 and LvEcSOD2 exhibited the highest expression levels in hemocytes and hepatopancreas. After the white shrimp was stimulated by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) or Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the mRNA expression levels of these two genes were up-regulated to varying degrees. The relative expression level of LvEcSOD2 was significantly increased after stimulation by two pathogenic microorganisms, which was generally later than that of LvEcSOD1. These results indicated that the two genes are both involved in the innate immunity of L. vannamei with different functions.

description: We describe a general target selection algorithm that is applicable to any survey in which the number of available candidates is much larger than the number of objects to be observed. This routine aims to achieve a balance between a smoothly-varying, well-understood selection function and the desire to preferentially select certain types of targets. Some target-selection examples are shown that illustrate different possibilities of emphasis functions. Although it is generally applicable, the algorithm was developed specifically for the LAMOST Experiment for Galactic Understanding and Exploration (LEGUE) survey that will be carried out using the Chinese Guo Shou Jing Telescope. In particular, this algorithm was designed for the portion of LEGUE targeting the Galactic halo, in which we attempt to balance a variety of science goals that require stars at fainter magnitudes than can be completely sampled by LAMOST. This algorithm has been implemented for the halo portion of the LAMOST pilot survey, which began in October 2011.

description: Stabilizing a nulling interferometer at a nanometric level is the key issue to obtain deep null depths. The PERSEE breadboard has been designed to study and optimize the operation of a cophased nulling bench in the most realistic disturbing environment of a space mission. This presentation focuses on the current results of the PERSEE bench. In terms of metrology, we cophased at 0.33 nm rms for the piston and 80 mas rms for the tip/tilt (0.14% of the Airy disk). A Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control coupled with an unsupervised vibration identification allows us to maintain that level of correction, even with characteristic vibrations of nulling interferometry space missions. These performances, with an accurate design and alignment of the bench, currently lead to a polychromatic unpolarised null depth of 8.9E-6 stabilized at 3E-7 on the [1.65-2.45] \mum spectral band (37% bandwidth).

description: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a life-threatening cancer associated with a higher mortality rate. Despite promising results shown by combination therapies, there remains a need for efficient drug delivery materials capable of combining various drugs, imaging agents, and targeting agents to enhance treatment efficacy. In this study, we present the synthesis of novel core-shell hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (@MSN) with bimodal porosity and a large surface area (694 m2/g) to facilitate targeted drug delivery for NSCLC treatment. The hollow core-shell structure enables the loading of a substantial quantity of the pemetrexed drug, up to 839 µg/mg, with a sustained release of 20% within 48 h. The MSN is surface functionalised with amino and carboxyl groups to accommodate an imaging agent and facilitate the attachment of the targeting drug bevacizumab. These particles exhibit rapid uptake by both A549 and PC-9 cells. Moreover, the targeting by bevacizumab leads to higher cytotoxicity within 48 h and induces apoptosis more effectively than the non-functionalised samples. As a versatile drug delivery platform, the hollow core-shell MSN demonstrated in this study holds great potential for various drug delivery applications. This study introduces novel core-shell hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles with bimodal porosity, high drug loading, and versatile surface functionalization for enhanced targeted drug delivery in non-small cell lung cancer therapy.

description: A large part of the workforce, and growing every day, is originally from India. India one of the second largest populations in the world, they have a lot to offer in terms of jobs. The sheer number of IT workers makes them a formidable travelling force as well, easily picking up employment in English speaking countries. The beginning of the economic crises since 2008 September, many Indians have return homeland, and this has had a substantial impression on the Indian Rupee (INR) as liken to the US Dollar (USD). We are using numerational knowledge based techniques for forecasting has been proved highly successful in present time. The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of several important neural network factors on model fitting and forecasting the behaviours. In this paper, Artificial Neural Network has successfully been used for exchange rate forecasting. This paper examines the effects of the number of inputs and hidden nodes and the size of the training sample on the in-sample and out-of-sample performance. The Indian Rupee (INR) / US Dollar (USD) is used for detailed examinations. The number of input nodes has a greater impact on performance than the number of hidden nodes, while a large number of observations do reduce forecast errors.

description: In the last four decades it has been observed that solar flares show quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs) from the lowest, i.e. radio, to the highest, i.e. gamma-ray, part of the electromagnetic spectrum. To this day, it is still unclear which mechanism creates such QPPs. In this paper, we analyze four bright solar flares which show compelling signatures of quasi-periodic behavior and were observed with the Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (\gbm) onboard the Fermi satellite. Because GBM covers over 3 decades in energy (8 keV to 40 MeV) it can be a key instrument to understand the physical processes which drive solar flares. We tested for periodicity in the time series of the solar flares observed by GBM by applying a classical periodogram analysis. However, contrary to previous authors, we did not detrend the raw light curve before creating the power spectral density spectrum (PSD). To assess the significance of the frequencies we made use of a method which is commonly applied for X-ray binaries and Seyfert galaxies. This technique takes into account the underlying continuum of the PSD which for all of these sources has a P(f) ~ f^{-α} dependence and is typically labeled red-noise. We checked the reliability of this technique by applying it to a solar flare which was observed by the Reuven Ramaty High-Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) which contains, besides any potential periodicity from the Sun, a 4 s rotational period due to the rotation of the spacecraft around its axis. While we do not find an intrinsic solar quasi-periodic pulsation we do reproduce the instrumental periodicity. Moreover, with the method adopted here, we do not detect significant QPPs in the four bright solar flares observed by GBM. We stress that for the purpose of such kind of analyses it is of uttermost importance to appropriately account for the red-noise component in the PSD of these astrophysical sources.

Destructible Bars in Disk Galaxies under the Dynamical Influence of a Massive Central Black Hole

Year: 2011

description: The characteristics of the galactic bars that are prone to suffer a damaging impact from a massive central black hole are examined using flat stellar disks. We construct three disk model groups that consist of exponential disks with one type of velocity distribution and Kuzmin-Toomre disks with two different types of exact equilibrium distribution function. For each disk model group, three disks that have different typical Toomre's Q values are evolved to form bars through dynamical instability. Once a bar is fully developed, a black hole (BH), whose mass is 1% of the disk mass, is adiabatically added at the center of the disk. Our results show that lower-amplitude bars, that is, weaker bars are dissolved more easily by that BH. We have found that this destructibility is rooted in the characteristic feature that the bar formed spontaneously becomes shorter in length and rounder in shape with decreasing bar amplitude. Since such weaker bars are found to originate from colder disks in each disk model group, it follows that for a given form of velocity structure, the coldness of an initial disk determines whether the bar produced in that disk is favorable to dissolution induced by a massive central BH. In addition, the existence of bar-dissolved galaxies of the kind studied here is also discussed.

description: An analysis is made of the fine structure in the cosmic ray energy spectrum: new facets of present observations and their interpretation and the next step. It is argued that less than about 10% of the intensity of the helium `peak' at the knee at $\simeq 5PeV$ is due to just a few sources (SNR) other than the single source. The apparent concavity in the rigidity spectra of protons and helium nuclei which have maximum curvature at about 200 GV is confirmed by a joint analysis of the PAMELA, CREAM and ATIC experiments. The spectra of heavier nuclei also show remarkable structure in the form of `ankles' at several hundred GeV/nucleon. Possible mechanisms are discussed. The search for `pulsar peaks' has not yet proved successful.

description: Recent deep Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 imaging suggests that a majority of compact quiescent massive galaxies at z~2 may contain disks. To investigate this claim, we have compared the ellipticity distribution of 31 carefully selected high-redshift massive quiescent compact galaxies to a set of mass-selected ellipticity and Sersic index distributions obtained from 2D structural fits to ~40,000$ nearby galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A Kolmogorov-Smirnov test shows that the distribution of ellipticities for the high-redshift galaxies is consistent with the ellipticity distribution of a similarly chosen sample of massive early-type galaxies. However the distribution of Sersic indices for the high-redshift sample is inconsistent with that of local early-type galaxies, and instead resembles that of local disk-dominated populations. The mismatch between the properties of high-redshift compact galaxies and those of both local early-type and disk-dominated systems leads us to conclude that the basic structures of high-redshift compact galaxies probably do not closely resemble those of any single local galaxy population. Any galaxy population analog to the high-redshift compact galaxies that exists at the current epoch is either a mix of different types of galaxies, or possibly a unique class of objects on their own.

A new proof for the convergence of an individual based model to the Trait substitution sequence

description: We consider a continuous time stochastic individual based model for a population structured only by an inherited vector trait and with logistic interactions. We consider its limit in a context from adaptive dynamics: the population is large, the mutations are rare and we view the process in the timescale of mutations. Using averaging techniques due to Kurtz (1992), we give a new proof of the convergence of the individual based model to the trait substitution sequence of Metz et al. (1992) first worked out by Dieckman and Law (1996) and rigorously proved by Champagnat (2006): rigging the model such that "invasion implies substitution", we obtain in the limit a process that jumps from one population equilibrium to another when mutations occur and invade the population.

title: Citizenship Capabilities and Instant Messaging in Western Kenya: an Intersectional Approach
Creators: name: Colom Miras, Anna
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2023

description: This doctoral research project contributes to understanding the role of WhatsApp—the most used social media platform in Kenya—in citizen engagement processes. Paying particular attention to inequalities, power dynamics, and the need to account for the postcolonial context of Kenya, the project develops a theoretical framework that combines the Capability Approach (CA) and critical citizenship studies to conceptualise citizen engagement as relational and multi-layered citizenship. It draws on the theory of affordances to understand WhatsApp as an artefact and uses intersectional feminism alongside the CA to study the interaction between WhatsApp and the citizenship capabilities. The project’s methodology follows a situated knowledges approach that focuses on discourse and a digital ethnography that encompasses multiple methods across offline and online spaces. Based on research with young people in the county of Busia, this thesis first identifies a set of citizenship capabilities including mattering, belonging and respect, in addition to what may be considered more obvious citizenship capabilities such as participating in decision-making or exercising rights. Second, in addition to processes that serve as conversion factors that help to ‘activate’ citizenship, the research also highlights the role of performative citizenship practices as conversion processes in themselves. Third, the study identifies a set of WhatsApp affordances which interact with these conversion processes and can help to activate or enact citizenship. These affordances emphasise WhatsApp’s social, discursive and agentic possibilities among private and relevant groups of people, helping to build and perform citizenship as an inwards and intimate process before enacting it in the public sphere. Finally, the thesis argues that the meanings attached to the capabilities as well as the conversion factors vary depending on where people are situated across axes of oppression. So do WhatsApp’s affordances. Relying on instant messaging’s affordances without taking these inequalities into account can further exclude people from valued capabilities.

Long range transport of ultra cold atoms in a far-detuned 1D optical lattice

description: We present a novel method to transport ultra cold atoms in a focused optical lattice over macroscopic distances of many Rayleigh ranges. With this method ultra cold atoms were transported over 5 cm in 250 ms without significant atom loss or heating. By translating the interference pattern together with the beam geometry the trap parameters are maintained over the full transport range. Thus, the presented method is well suited for tightly focused optical lattices that have sufficient trap depth only close to the focus. Tight focusing is usually required for far-detuned optical traps or traps that require high laser intensity for other reasons. The transport time is short and thus compatible with the operation of an optical lattice clock in which atoms are probed in a well designed environment spatially separated from the preparation and detection region.

description: The chemistry of the early Universe is a fascinating field of study. Even in the absence of any elements heavier than lithium, a surprising degree of chemical complexity proves to be possible, giving the topic considerable interest in its own right. In addition, the fact that molecular hydrogen plays a key role in the formation of the first stars and galaxies means that if we want to understand the formation of these objects, we must first develop a good understanding of the chemical evolution of the gas. In this review, I first give a brief introduction to the chemistry occurring in the gas prior to the formation of the first stars and galaxies, and then go on to discuss in more detail the main chemical processes occurring during the gravitational collapse of gas from intergalactic to protostellar densities, and how these processes influence the final outcome of the collapse.
