description: We report microwave spectral imaging observations of an erupting magnetic flux rope during the early impulsive phase of the X8.2-class limb flare on 2017 September 10, obtained by the Expanded Owens Valley Solar Array. A few days prior to the eruption, when viewed against the disk, the flux rope appeared as a reverse S-shaped dark filament along the magnetic polarity inversion line. During the eruption, the rope exhibited a "hot channel" structure in extreme ultraviolet and soft X-ray passbands sensitive to ~10 MK plasma. The central portion of the flux rope was nearly aligned with the line of sight, which quickly developed into a teardrop-shaped dark cavity during the early phase of the eruption. A long and thin plasma sheet formed below the cavity, interpreted as the reconnection current sheet viewed edge-on. A nonthermal microwave source was present at the location of the central current sheet, which extended upward encompassing the dark cavity. A pair of nonthermal microwave sources were observed for several minutes on both sides of the main flaring region. They shared a similar temporal behavior and spectral property to the central microwave source below the cavity, interpreted as the conjugate footpoints of the erupting flux rope. These observations are broadly consistent with the magnetic topology and the associated energy release scenario suggested in the three-dimensional standard model for eruptive solar flares. In particular, our detection of nonthermal emission at conjugate flux rope footpoints provides solid evidence of particle transport along an erupting magnetic flux rope.

description: We propose several different types of construction principles for new classes of Toda field theories based on root systems defined on Lorentzian lattices. In analogy to conformal and affine Toda theories based on root systems of semi-simple Lie algebras, also their Lorentzian extensions come about in conformal and massive variants. We carry out the Painlevé integrability test for the proposed theories, finding in general only one integer valued resonance corresponding to the energy-momentum tensor. Thus most of the Lorentzian Toda field theories are not integrable, as the remaining resonances, that grade the spins of the W-algebras in the semisimple cases, are either non integer or complex valued. We analyse in detail the classical mass spectra of several massive variants. Lorentzian Toda field theories may be viewed as perturbed versions of integrable theories equipped with an algebraic framework.

Parallel Load Balancing on Constrained Client-Server Topologies

description: We study parallel \emph{Load Balancing} protocols for a client-server distributed model defined as follows. There is a set $\sC$ of $n$ clients and a set $\sS$ of $n$ servers where each client has (at most) a constant number $d \geq 1$ of requests that must be assigned to some server. The client set and the server one are connected to each other via a fixed bipartite graph: the requests of client $v$ can only be sent to the servers in its neighborhood $N(v)$. The goal is to assign every client request so as to minimize the maximum load of the servers. In this setting, efficient parallel protocols are available only for dense topolgies. In particular, a simple symmetric, non-adaptive protocol achieving constant maximum load has been recently introduced by Becchetti et al \cite{BCNPT18} for regular dense bipartite graphs. The parallel completion time is $\bigO(\log n)$ and the overall work is $\bigO(n)$, w.h.p. Motivated by proximity constraints arising in some client-server systems, we devise a simple variant of Becchetti et al's protocol \cite{BCNPT18} and we analyse it over almost-regular bipartite graphs where nodes may have neighborhoods of small size. In detail, we prove that, w.h.p., this new version has a cost equivalent to that of Becchetti et al's protocol (in terms of maximum load, completion time, and work complexity, respectively) on every almost-regular bipartite graph with degree $Ω(\log^2n)$. Our analysis significantly departs from that in \cite{BCNPT18} for the original protocol and requires to cope with non-trivial stochastic-dependence issues on the random choices of the algorithmic process which are due to the worst-case, sparse topology of the underlying graph.
Diasporic and transnational notions of belonging : a case study of Cambodians in Japan
Creators: name: Hara, Hiroko
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In this thesis, drawing on feminist writers and pedagogues, I examine diverse notions of belonging in the postcolonial, diasporic, and multicultural world. While feminist writers and pedagogues have discussed notions of belonging by closely looking at the cases of the migrant, the exile, the nomad, and hyphenated people, I examine what "belonging" means to the refugee by focusing on the case of Cambodian refugees in Japan. Applying concepts of the "third space" discussed by Trinh T. Minh-ha (1994) and of "global-nomadic citizenship" presented by Sara Ahmed (2000), I create a fluid and open critical cartography of Cambodians as global nomads moving beyond borders. This allows us to see more of the third space. In addition to the analysis of selected diaspora literature by Jamaica Kincaid (1988), U Sam Oeur (1998), Dionne Brand (2001), and Kugo Ponnaret (2001), ethnographic interviews with eight Cambodian refugees living in Japan and participant observation were conducted in research for this thesis. They reveal the perspectives of Cambodian women and men, and their positive and negative experiences and emotions of belonging surrounding history, home, food, language, education, time, space, travelling and dwelling. In the cartography, I aim to attain four conceptual objectives: (1) to clarify transnational movements of Cambodians, examine the concept of transnationalism based on their experiences, and reveal their reactions to themselves as transnational citizens; (2) to determine the uniqueness of Cambodians’ notion of belonging; (3) to analyze the impact of education on their notion of belonging; and (4) to delineate voices of transnational citizens and provide an alternative notion of belonging, referring to their experiences. The critical cartography of Cambodians created in this thesis shows the possibility of alternative notions of belonging. The transnational movement of Cambodians provides us with a model of fully participating in the postcolonial, diasporic, and multicultural world in the twenty-first century. The Cambodians’ act of transgressing not only national but also cultural and ethnic boundaries indicates what is necessary to join in the third space and interact with other global nomads.

description: The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe microwave background data suggest that the primordial spectrum of scalar curvature fluctuations is suppressed at small wavenumbers. We propose a UV/IR mixing effect in small-field inflationary models that can explain the observable deviation in WMAP data from the concordance model. Specifically, in inflationary models where the inflaton couples to an asymptotically free gauge theory, the radiative corrections to the effective inflaton potential can be anomalously large. This occurs for small values of the inflaton field which are of the order of the gauge theory strong coupling scale. Radiative corrections cause the inflaton potential to blow up at small values of the inflaton field. As a result, these corrections can violate the slow-roll condition at the initial stage of the inflation and suppress the production of scalar density perturbations.

description: The two-fluid (ions and electrons) plasma Richtmyer-Meshkov instability of a cylindrical light/heavy density interface is numerically investigated without an initial magnetic field. Varying the Debye length scale, we examine the effects of the coupling between the electron and ion fluids. When the coupling becomes strong, the electrons are restricted to co-move with the ions and the resulting evolution is similar to the hydrodynamic neutral fluid case. The charge separation that occurs between the electrons and ions results in self-generated electromagnetic fields. We show that the Biermann battery effect dominates the generation of magnetic field when the coupling between the electrons and ions is weak. In addition to the Rayleigh-Tayler stabilization effect during flow deceleration, the interfaces are accelerated by the induced spatio-temporally varying Lorentz force. As a consequence, the perturbations develop into the Rayleigh-Taylor instability, leading to an enhancement of the perturbation amplitude compared with the hydrodynamic case.

description: A globális felmelegedés kedvezőtlen hatásai a Mátraaljai borvidék ültetvényeiben is megfigyelhetők. A nyári hónapokban gyakran aszályos periódusok jönnek létre. A hirtelen lehulló nagy mennyiségű csapadék részben eróziós károkat okoz, részben a szőlőültetvény számára elvész, mert a területről elfolyik. A szárazság hatását a szőlőültetvényekben eredményesen lehet csökkenteni a mezőgazdaságban nagy mennyiségben keletkező bűzaszalma, kukoricaszár és egyéb mezőgazdasági hulladék (pl. nád) talajtakarásra történő felhasználásával. Ezek a természetes anyagok a téli, tavaszi csapadék talajba történő bejutását fokozzák, csökkentik a vízeróziót és elfolyast, valamint a talaj evaporációt, melyet a kísérleti eredményeink is alátámasztottak. A szervesanyagban szegény talajon valamilyen mértékű szervesanyagpótlást is jelentettek. A szalmatakarás költsége nagyobb a hagyományos talaj művelés költségénél, de a talajban megőrzött csapadék termésbiztonságot és minőséget növelő hatása mégis perspektivikussá teheti. A mezőgazdasági szerves hulladékkal történő talajtakarás jól beilleszthető a dombvidéki szőlők integrált termesztéstechnológiai rendszerébe. ----------------- The unfavourable impact of global warming can be observed also in vineyards of the wine region at the feet of Mátra mountains near Gyöngyös city, Northern Hungary. Periods of draught frequently occur in summer. Sudden heavy rainfalls cause soil erosion, on the one hand, and such precipitation gets lost for the vines due to flow-off, on the other. The negative effects of draught can be successfully decreased using wheat straw, maize stalk or other kinds of waste matter arising in agriculture in big quantities (e. g. reed) for mulching. These natural substances promote the infiltration of spring and summer precipitation into the soil, and reduce soil erosion, water flow-off and evaporation, which was proven also in experiments carried out by the authors. In addition, they constitute also some kind of organic matter replacement on soils poor in such matter. It is true that straw mulch is more expensive than conventional tillage but still may be promising due to yield safety and quality improvement it causes by conserving rainwater in the soil. Mulching with organic waste matter of agricultural origin may be well fitted in the integrated system of farming technologies in hillside vineyards.

Calculations are done for the Fermi sphere and cylinder (with the field parallel to the cylinder axis). The results for clean materials at T=0 can be represented as $ξ(H)/ξ(H_{c2}) = U (H/H_{c2})$ with $U$ being an universal function.

description: CONTEXT: Modern silvopastoral systems offer benefits that are important for farm climate change adaptation, including shade for grazing animals, microclimate regulation, and contributions to biodiversity conservation. In 2023, Germany revised its regulatory framework to facilitate the adoption of agroforestry systems. Despite the benefits, farmers hesitate to adopt these systems. OBJECTIVE: Understanding farmer perceptions of silvopastoral systems and adoption barriers is essential for policy makers who aim to foster their adoption. This study investigates behavioral factors that influence cattle farmers’ intentions to adopt modern silvopastoral systems for cattle grazing in combination with timber production. METHODS: We develop a model based on a dual appraisal approach and hypothesize that farmers’ technical and social appraisals of the silvopastoral system as well as their appraisals of their current pasture systems and perceptions of climate change risk predict the intention to adopt these systems. Using survey data of 174 cattle farms that hold cattle on pasture in Germany, we test our hypotheses using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: We find that farmers perceive benefits from silvopastoral systems, in particular for animal wellbeing on pasture and biodiversity conservation. Along with the identification with the system, perceptions of the benefits for biodiversity and farm profitability, economic concerns, as well as the farms’ perceived capability of adoption show the strongest associations with adoption intentions. The farmers’ perceptions of the climate change risk of their current system influences their intentions to adopt indirectly through their attitude towards keeping the current system and perceived benefits of silvopasture. The results suggest that to increase adoption of silvopastoral systems, economic concerns should be targeted and opportunities supported.

description: Silicon dioxide (SiO$_2$) is expected to occur in the atmospheres of hot rocky super-Earth exoplanets but a lack of spectroscopic data is hampering its possible detection. Here, we present the first, comprehensive molecular line list for SiO$_2$. The line list, named OYT3, covers the wavenumber range 0\,--\,6000~cm$^{-1}$ (wavelengths $λ> 1.67$~$μ$m) and is suitable for temperatures up to $T=3000$~K. Almost 33 billion transitions involving 5.69 million rotation-vibration states with rotational excitation up to $J=255$ have been computed using robust first-principles methodologies. The OYT3 line list is available from the ExoMol database at http://www.exomol.com.

A study of geometric and thermodynamic properties indicates that the black hole fills the space in the compact dimension at $ε(μ/L)^2\simeq0.1$. At the same value of $ε$ the entropies of the uniform black string and of the black hole are approximately equal.

description: la casa dei rifugiati - house of refugees - spatial densification in the Mediterranean context In this thesis, the theme of a refugee residence is discussed in the context of the island of Lampedusa, regarding the special situation of the small Italian island in relation to the phenomenon of migration waves of the last decade. The proposed project, of a relatively large scale - very impacting on the urban design of the island, builds an architectural task that allows an exploration of the spatial densification in contemporary Mediterranean architecture. A concept that is strongly based on the synergy between architecture and urban development arises. Furthermore, the theme of the interior and exterior space, main and secondary space, comprehensibility and privacy are investigated. All this with special regard to the very specific design task, the resulting usage type, as well as the impact on the surroundings, and in response the search for a conscious architectural language.

description: Fix $d\in\{1,2\}$, we consider a $d$-dimensional stochastic wave equation driven by a Gaussian noise, which is temporally white and colored in space such that the spatial correlation function is integrable and satisfies Dalang's condition. In this setting, we provide quantitative central limit theorems for the spatial average of the solution over a Euclidean ball, as the radius of the ball diverges to infinity. We also establish functional central limit theorems. A fundamental ingredient in our analysis is the pointwise $L^p$-estimate for the Malliavin derivative of the solution, which is of independent interest. This paper is another addendum to the recent research line of averaging stochastic partial differential equations.

description: Categorical and limited dependent variable models are routinely estimated via maximum likelihood. It is well-known that the ML estimates of the parameters are inconsistent if the distribution or the skedastic component is misspecified. When conditional moment tests were first developed by Newey (1985) and Tauchen (1985), they appeared to offer a wide range of easy-to-compute specification tests for categorical and limited dependent variable models estimated by maximum likelihood. However, subsequent studies found that using the asymptotic critical values produced severe size distortions. This paper presents simulation evidence that the standard conditional moment test for normality after tobit estimation has essentially no size distortion and reasonable power when the critical values are obtained via a parametric bootstrap.

description: Object tracking has been broadly applied in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tasks in recent years. However, existing algorithms still face difficulties such as partial occlusion, clutter background, and other challenging visual factors. Inspired by the cutting-edge attention mechanisms, a novel object tracking framework is proposed to leverage multi-level visual attention. Three primary attention, i.e., contextual attention, dimensional attention, and spatiotemporal attention, are integrated into the training and detection stages of correlation filter-based tracking pipeline. Therefore, the proposed tracker is equipped with robust discriminative power against challenging factors while maintaining high operational efficiency in UAV scenarios. Quantitative and qualitative experiments on two well-known benchmarks with 173 challenging UAV video sequences demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework. The proposed tracking algorithm favorably outperforms 12 state-of-the-art methods, yielding 4.8% relative gain in UAVDT and 8.2% relative gain in UAV123@10fps against the baseline tracker while operating at the speed of $\sim$ 28 frames per second.

Turbulence suppression by energetic particle effects in modern optimized stellarators

description: Turbulent transport is known to limit the plasma confinement of present-day optimized stellarators. To address this issue, a novel method to strongly suppress turbulence in such devices is proposed, namely the resonant wave-particle interaction of supra-thermal particles - e.g., from ion-cyclotron-resonance-frequency (ICRF) heating - with turbulence-driving microinstabilities like ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) modes. The effectiveness of this mechanism is demonstrated via analytic theory and large-scale gyrokinetic simulations, revealing an overall turbulence reduction by up to $80\%$. These results hold the promise of new and still unexplored stellarator scenarios with enhanced confinement and improved performance, essential for achieving burning plasmas in future devices.

description: In these proceedings, the multiloop amplitude prescription using the super-Poincare invariant pure spinor formalism for the superstring is reviewed. Unlike the RNS prescription, there is no sum over spin structures and surface terms coming from the boundary of moduli space can be ignored. Massless N-point multiloop amplitudes vanish for N<4, which implies (with two mild assumptions) the perturbative finiteness of superstring theory. And R^4 terms receive no multiloop corrections in agreement with the Type IIB S-duality conjecture of Green and Gutperle.

Dressing the part : girls, style & school identities
Creators: name: Pomerantz, Shauna
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: In the early 21s t century, girls are represented as in-trouble and out-of-control through a variety of discourses that position them at the centre of crises, syndromes, and catastrophes. But these portrayals often ignore how girls use cultural practices to make sense of the world around them and how such practices take on a life of their own within a given context. This ; research thus focuses on one specific cultural practice—style—and how it was used by girls as a tool for identity negotiation within one particular school. I conducted a year-long ethnography at a multicultural, urban, and largely working-class high school in Vancouver's east side. I interviewed, observed, and hung out with twenty girls of varying races, ethnicities, classes, and curricular tracks in order to trace the school's symbolic economy of style and highlight the significance style had within the school's postmodern social world. My findings suggest that style functioned as "social skin," or an extension of the body that made girls socially visible. As social skin, style acted as one of the most accessible and malleable ways for girls to indicate subjectivity and belonging. It also acted as a form of agency, where girls understood how they were positioned within discourses of gender, race, ethnicity, class, and sexuality, and used style as a means to re/position themselves. By situating this research at the fruitful crossroads of feminist sociology of education and girls' studies, I link a sociological understanding of girlhood as it is constructed within the institution of the school to the texts of girls' culture as they are used by girls to negotiate that construction. As well, this research seeks to highlight the complexity of girls' identity negotiations in order to counteract current representations of girls as drowning victims and cultural dupes. Finally, this research aims to make connections between style and the broader social projects of education and feminism, two fields that must become more fluent in girls' cultural practices in order to combat the current backlash against girls' newfound social visibility.

description: We present a way to trap a single Rydberg atom, make it long-lived and preserve an internal coherence over time scales reaching into the minute range. We propose to trap using carefully designed electric fields, to inhibit the spontaneous emission in a non resonant conducting structure and to maintain the internal coherence through a tailoring of the atomic energies using an external microwave field. We thoroughly identify and account for many causes of imperfection in order to verify at each step the realism of our proposal.

description: Misner space, also known as the Lorentzian orbifold $R^{1,1}/boost$, is the simplest tree-level solution of string theory with a cosmological singularity. We compute tree-level scattering amplitudes involving twisted states, using operator and current algebra techniques. We find that, due to zero-point quantum fluctuations of the excited modes, twisted strings with a large winding number $w$ are fuzzy on a scale $\sqrt{\log w}$, which can be much larger than the string scale. Wave functions are smeared by an operator $\exp(Δ(ν) \partial_+ \partial_-)$ reminiscent of the Moyal-product of non-commutative geometry, which, since $Δ(ν)$ is real, modulates the amplitude rather than the phase of the wave function, and is purely gravitational in its origin. We compute the scattering amplitude of two twisted states and one tachyon or graviton, and find a finite result. The scattering amplitude of two twisted and two untwisted states is found to diverge, due to the propagation of intermediate winding strings with vanishing boost momentum. The scattering amplitude of three twisted fields is computed by analytic continuation from three-point amplitudes of states with non-zero $p^+$ in the Nappi-Witten plane wave, and the non-locality of the three-point vertex is found to diverge for certain kinematical configurations. Our results for the three-point amplitudes allow in principle to compute, to leading order, the back-reaction on the metric due to a condensation of coherent winding strings.

description: Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies received a lot of attention recently for their applications in many domains. IoT domain is one of such applications, which can utilize cryptocur-rencies for micro payments without compromising their payment privacy. However, long confirmation times of transactions and relatively high fees hinder the adoption of cryptoccurency based micro-payments. The payment channel networks is one of the proposed solutions to address these issue where nodes establish payment channels among themselves without writing on blockchain. IoT devices can benefit from such payment networks as long as they are capable of sustaining their overhead. Payment channel networks pose unique characteristics as far as the routing problem is concerned. Specifically, they should stay balanced to have a sustainable network for maintaining payments for longer times, which is crucial for IoT devices once they are deployed.In this paper, we present a payment channel network design that aims to keep the channels balanced by using a common weight policy across the network. We additionally propose using multi-point connections to nodes for each IoT device for unbalanced payment scenarios. The experiment results show that we can keep the channels in the network more equally balanced compared to the minimal fee approach. In addition, multiple connections from IoT devices to nodes increase the success ratio significantly.

Time travel paradoxes, path integrals, and the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider two approaches to evading paradoxes in quantum mechanics with closed timelike curves (CTCs). In a model similar to Politzer's, assuming pure states and using path integrals, we show that the problems of paradoxes and of unitarity violation are related; preserving unitarity avoids paradoxes by modifying the time evolution so that improbable events bewcome certain. Deutsch has argued, using the density matrix, that paradoxes do not occur in the "many worlds interpretation". We find that in this approach account must be taken of the resolution time of the device that detects objects emerging from a wormhole or other time machine. When this is done one finds that this approach is viable only if macroscopic objects traversing a wormhole interact with it so strongly that they are broken into microscopic fragments.

description: In the present work, a new shape function is proposed inside a modified $f(R)$ gravity and General Relativity in wormhole (WH) geometry. The shape function obeyed all the desired conditions of WH geometry. The equation of state (EoS) parameter, anisotropy parameter and the energy conditions are computed. The tangential null energy conditions and the weak energy condition are validated, as well as the radial energy conditions, which demonstrates the nonappearance of exotic matter due to modified gravity allied with such a new proposal.

The Coherence Factor C(τ)C(\tau)C(τ) in the Unified Informational Spin Theory (TGU): A Foundational Approach

Autores:

Henry Matuchaki

Resumo:

This paper introduces the coherence factor C(τ)C(\tau)C(τ) as a fundamental component of the Unified Informational Spin Theory (TGU), offering a novel approach to nucleosynthesis, cosmic evolution, and large-scale structure formation. Unlike conventional models where the evolution of the universe is dictated purely by thermodynamic interactions, TGU posits that information is inherited across cosmic cycles, influencing elemental abundances, gravitation, and quantum processes.

A mathematical formulation of C(τ)C(\tau)C(τ) is derived, demonstrating its oscillatory nature and decay properties, which regulate the formation of Helium-4, Deuterium, and Lithium-7 in primordial nucleosynthesis. This approach provides a natural resolution to the Lithium-7 problem and predicts structured patterns in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and galaxy distribution.

The study proposes observational tests using high-resolution spectroscopic surveys, numerical simulations integrating coherence-driven models, and future applications in quantum cosmology and gravitational coherence. By introducing informational coherence as a governing principle, this work expands the theoretical framework of TGU, offering new directions for understanding the structure, evolution, and informational heritage of the universe.

description: Spanish authorities have recently approved a new legislative framework for the creation of local water markets to improve allocative efficiency for this scarce resource. This paper analyses the potential impacts of the policy. A utility function for three groups of farmers was elicited, using a method that does not require interaction with the decision‐makers. Utility was measured as a function of the first two moments of the distribution of total gross margin. The utility functions were then used to simulate farmers' responses to changes in the price of water.
