description: Engineering design considerations of artificial coastal structures were tested to resemble as far as possible the nearest natural equivalent habitat, ecologically valuable rocky shores, as a potential management option. Coastal areas around the world attract urbanisation but these transitional areas between sea and land are inherently vulnerable to risk of flooding and erosion. Thus hard structures are often built in sensitive coastal environments to defend assets such as property and infrastructure (roads, railways, ports) against rising and stormy seas. The design, construction and maintenance of hard defences should wherever possible incorporate ecological considerations to enhance biodiversity, including maintaining or restoring natural habitats and wild species to ensure favourable conservation status. Artificial habitats are less topographically complex than natural rocky shores, at millimetre scales in terms of surface roughness, centimetre to meter scales for crevices and pools to tens, hundreds and occasionally thousands of meters for variation in tidal height and wave action gradients. The habitat value of design features of an existing seawall and breakwater, such as areas of different slope and orientation, and the presence of crevices and pools, that are analogous to habitat created by topographical features on a natural shore, were demonstrated by their ability to support distinct assemblages of species. X Furthermore, evidence is provided that a greater variation in the type of design features led to a higher species diversity occupying the structure, and included species that would otherwise not be present on the structure. The long term succession on artificial structures and the biodiversity reached on intertidal coastal defence structures is described to inform understanding of timescales over which successional processes operate. As a consequence of succession, artificial structures of large extent eventually resemble natural rocky shores of the same exposure. Increased surface heterogeneity of concrete armour units on Plymouth Breakwater by drilling holes was effective in adding habitat and increasing local species diversity. These can be added at the construction stage or post construction. In a real case study, added recessed pools, holes and surface texture during the construction of a tidal defence sea wall at Shaldon made heterogeneous surfaces to add habitat and influence species diversity, without compromising the engineering function or aesthetics of the structure. This study provides coastal engineers and decision makers with well researched practical design options to inform future construction and maintenance of coastal defence structures that will encourage specific outcomes to mitigate the negative environmental impact of artificial structures and contribute to conservation priorities.

description: We consider the 3D Cahn-Hilliard equations coupled to, and driven by, the forced, incompressible 3D Navier-Stokes equations. The combination, known as the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes (CHNS) equations, is used in statistical mechanics to model the motion of a binary fluid. The potential development of singularities (blow-up) in the contours of the order parameter $ϕ$ is an open problem. To address this we have proved a theorem that closely mimics the Beale-Kato-Majda theorem for the $3D$ incompressible Euler equations [Beale et al. Commun. Math. Phys., Commun. Math. Phys., ${\rm 94}$, $ 61-66 ({\rm 1984})$]. By taking an $L^{\infty}$ norm of the energy of the full binary system, designated as $E_{\infty}$, we have shown that $\int_{0}^{t}E_{\infty}(τ)\,dτ$ governs the regularity of solutions of the full 3D system. Our direct numerical simulations (DNSs), of the 3D CHNS equations, for (a) a gravity-driven Rayleigh Taylor instability and (b) a constant-energy-injection forcing, with $128^3$ to $512^3$ collocation points and over the duration of our DNSs, confirm that $E_{\infty}$ remains bounded as far as our computations allow.

description: Несмотря на канонизацию на Юбилейном Архиерейском Соборе Русской Православной Церкви в 2000 г. и почитание, биография священномученика Владимира Васильевича Панькина бедна фактами. Более того, к сожалению, в имеющихся кратких жизнеописаниях святого содержатся ошибочные сведения. При исследовании настоящей темы и написании данной статьи были изучены материалы различных государственных и ведомственных архивов Республики Казахстан и Российской Федерации, а также дореволюционные периодические и справочные издания. Критически рассматривая опубликованные сведения о жизни священника Владимира Панькина, автор анализирует ранее неизвестные источники, вводя в научный оборот новые материалы, позволяющие существенно дополнить биографию новомученика.

Assessment of the Information Content of the Power Spectrum and Bispectrum

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The covariance matrix of the matter and halo power spectrum and bispectrum are studied. Using a large suite of simulations, we find that the non-Gaussianity in the covariance is significant already at mildly nonlinear scales. We compute the leading disconnected non-Gaussian correction to the matter bispectrum covariance using perturbation theory, and find that the corrections result in good agreement in the mildly nonlinear regime. The shot noise contribution to the halo power spectrum and bispectrum covariance is computed using the Poisson model, and the model yields decent agreement with simulation results. However, when the shot noise is estimated from the individual realization, which is usually done in reality, we find that the halo covariance is substantially reduced and gets close to the Gaussian covariance. This is because most of the non-Gaussianity in the covariance arises from the fluctuations in the Poisson shot noise. We use the measured non-Gaussian covariance to access the information content of the power spectrum and bispectrum. The signal-to-noise ratio, S/N, of the matter and halo power spectrum levels off in the mildly nonlinear regime, $k \sim 0.1 - 0.2 \,\mathrm{Mpc} h^{-1}$. In the nonlinear regime the S/N of the matter and halo bispectrum increases but much slower than the Gaussian results suggest. We find that both the S/N for power spectrum and bispectrum are overestimated by the Gaussian covariances, but the problem being much more serious for the bispectrum. Because the bispectrum is affected strongly by nonlinearity and shot noise, inclusion of the bispectrum only adds modest amount of S/N compared to that of the power spectrum.

künstlerischer Beschäftigter ohne Professur an den Hochschulen hält bereits seit über einem Jahrzehnt an und nahm kürzlich durch die Social-Media-Interventionen
#IchBinHanna und #IchBinReyhan noch an Fahrt auf. Forderungen werden lauter,
strukturelle Abhängigkeitsbeziehungen zwischen Professor_innen und Doktorand_innen zu minimieren, notorische Befristung und Teilzeitarbeitsverhältnisse abzubauen und planbare Karrierewege für Wissenschaftler_innen zu schaffen. Sowohl in der politischen Debatte als auch in der Forschung zu Beschäftigungsbedingungen und Karriereperspektiven in der Wissenschaft wird jedoch selten die Frage gestellt, ob oder inwiefern die Bedingungen der prekären Beschäftigung sich ungleich auswirken bzw. anders erlebt werden, z. B. nach Geschlecht, sozialer Herkunft oder aufgrund einer Migrationsgeschichte, und welche Rolle rassifizierende Zuschreibungen, sexuelle Orientierung oder gesundheitliche und körperliche Voraussetzungen im Berufsalltag und für die Karriere spielen. Im Rahmen des GenderReports 2022 wurde die Kategorie Geschlecht zusammen mit weiteren Ungleichheitsdimensionen in einer Studie zum wissenschaftlichen Mittelbau in NRW untersucht. Es zeigten sich vielfältige Benachteiligungen für Frauen, insbesondere dann, wenn sie von Mehrfachdiskriminierung betroffen sind.

description: В статье на основании архивных материалов изложена биография Ивана Савича Азимова (ок. 1715–1755), дьячка церкви св. Сампсона Странноприимца на Выборгской стороне близ Санкт-Петербурга (современный Сампсониевский собор). Иван Азимов является типичным представителем петербургских церковнослужителей середины XVIII в. В его судьбе нашли отражение многие процессы, характерные для «эпохи перемен» — периода формирования синодальной системы. Это усиление бюрократического контроля над служителями Церкви, необходимость духовного образования для получения места на приходе и, одновременно, официальная возможность получения такого места по наследству. На примере дьячка Ивана Азимова можно видеть некоторые стороны жизни петербургской духовной школы на заре ее существования, а также семейные связи петербургского духовенства, которое в ту эпоху еще не выделилось в полностью замкнутое сословие. Иван Азимов был сыном одного из первых петербургских «церковников» — пономаря Саввы Герасимова, а среди его собственных потомков были как священно-, так и церковнослужители. В частности, сын и внук дьячка Ивана стали священниками и на протяжении 75-ти лет возглавляли приход храма св. пророка Божия Илии на Пороховых.

description: An ordinary circle of a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane is defined as a circle that contains exactly three points of $P$. We show that if $P$ is not contained in a line or a circle, then $P$ spans at least $\frac{1}{4}n^2 - O(n)$ ordinary circles. Moreover, we determine the exact minimum number of ordinary circles for all sufficiently large $n$ and describe all point sets that come close to this minimum. We also consider the circle variant of the orchard problem. We prove that $P$ spans at most $\frac{1}{24}n^3 - O(n^2)$ circles passing through exactly four points of $P$. Here we determine the exact maximum and the extremal configurations for all sufficiently large $n$. These results are based on the following structure theorem. If $n$ is sufficiently large depending on $K$, and $P$ is a set of $n$ points spanning at most $Kn^2$ ordinary circles, then all but $O(K)$ points of $P$ lie on an algebraic curve of degree at most four. Our proofs rely on a recent result of Green and Tao on ordinary lines, combined with circular inversion and some classical results regarding algebraic curves.

E11, Romans theory and higher level duality relations

description: From the underlying non-linear realisation we compute the complete E11 invariant equations of motion in eleven dimensions, at the linearised level, up to and including level four in the fields. Thus we include the metric, the three and six forms, the dual graviton and three fields at level four. The fields are linked by a set of duality equations, which are first order in derivatives and transform into each other under the E11 symmetries. From these duality relations we deduce second order equations of motion, including those for the usual supergravity fields. As a result the on-shell degrees of freedom are those of the eleven dimensional supergravity. We also show that the level four fields provide an eleven dimensional origin of Romans theory and lead to a novel duality relation.

Dissociable Roles of Theta and Alpha in Sub-Second and Supra-Second Time Reproduction: An Investigation of their Links to Depression and Anxiety

description: A growing collection of observations has demonstrated the presence of multiple neural oscillations participating in human temporal cognition and psychiatric pathologies such as depression and anxiety. However, there remains a gap in the literature regarding the specific roles of these neural oscillations during interval timing, and how these oscillatory activities might vary with the different levels of mental health. The current study examined the participation of the frontal midline theta and occipital alpha oscillations, both of which are prevalent cortical oscillatory markers frequently reported in working memory and time perception paradigms. Participants performed a time reproduction task in the sub- (400, 600, 800 ms) and supra-second timescales (1600, 1800, 2000 ms) while undergoing scalp EEG recordings. Anxiety and depression levels were measured via self-report mental health inventories. Time–frequency analysis of scalp EEG revealed that both frontal midline and occipital alpha oscillations were engaged during the encoding of the durations. Furthermore, we observed that the correlational relationship between frontal midline theta power and the reproduction performance in the sub-second range was modulated by state anxiety. In contrast, the correlational relationship between occipital alpha and the reproduction performance of supra-second intervals was modulated by depression and trait anxiety. The results offer insights on how alpha and theta oscillations differentially play a role in interval timing and how mental health further differentially relates these neural oscillations to sub- and supra-second timescales.

Phase-field simulations for dripping-to-jetting transitions: Effects of low interfacial tension and bulk diffusion

description: The dripping-to-jetting transitions in coaxial flows have been experimentally well studied for systems of high interfacial tension, where the capillary number of the outer fluid and the Weber number of the inner fluid are in control. Recent experiments have shown that in systems of low interfacial tension, the transitions driven by the inner flow are no longer dominated by the inertial force alone, and the viscous drag force due to the inner flow is also quantitatively important. In the present work, we carry out numerical simulations based on the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes model, aiming for a more complete and quantitative study that is needed for understanding the effects of interfacial tension when it becomes sufficiently low. The Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes model is solved by using an accurate and efficient spectral method in a cylindrical domain with axisymmetry, and numerical results obtained for jet and drop radii demonstrate the accuracy of our computation. Plenty of numerical examples are systematically presented to show the dripping-to-jetting transitions driven by the outer flow and inner flow respectively. In particular, for transitions dominated by inner flow, detailed results reveal how the magnitude of interfacial tension quantitatively determines the relative importance of the inertial and viscous forces due to the inner flow at the transition point. Our numerical results are found to be consistent with the experimental observation. Finally, the degree of bulk diffusion is varied to investigate its quantitative effect on the condition for the occurrence of transition. Such effect is expected for systems of ultralow interfacial tension where interfacial motion is more likely to be driven by bulk diffusion.

description: We report observations of a remarkable major axes alignment nearly parallel to the Galactic plane of 5σ significance for a subset of bulge "planetary nebulae" (PNe) that host, or are inferred to host, short period binaries. Nearly all are bipolar. It is solely this specific PNe population that accounts for the much weaker statistical alignments previously reported for the more general bulge PNe. It is clear evidence of a persistent, organised process acting on a measurable parameter at the heart of our Galaxy over perhaps cosmologically significant periods of time for this very particular PNe sample. Stable magnetic fields are currently the only plausible mechanism that could affect multiple binary star orbits as revealed by the observed major axes orientations of their eventual PNe. Examples are fed into the current bulge planetary nebulae population at a rate determined by their formation history and mass range of their binary stellar progenitors.

В советский период ее настоятелем около 20 лет служил протоиерей Александр Петров, расстрелянный в период немецкой оккупации нацистами за патриотическую деятельность. Членами причта также было несколько новомучеников. К началу Великой Отечественной войны Спасо-Преображенская церковь оставалась одним из 16 действующих православных храмов в Ленинграде и пригородах. Она была уничтожена в октябре 1941 г. в ходе боев за город. В середине 1990-х гг. был возрожден приход Преображения Господня в Лигове, и через несколько лет началось возведение церковного комплекса, которое пока не завершено.

description: The study objective was to investigate factors associated with condom use among university students. During the 2013–2014 academic year, 1017 first and fourth year students from the University of Pristina temporarily seated in Kosovska Mitrovica, northern Kosovo, completed a questionnaire on sociodemographic data, HIV-related knowledge, attitudes and risky behaviours. Condom use during the most recent sexual encounter and with casual partners was reported by just over half of participants. Factors associated with condom use during the most recent sexual encounter were: being male (35.1%), using medical sources of information about HIV (35.7%), having a positive approach to HIV testing (40.1%) and a positive attitude towards sex workers (17.7%), as well as not having had a sexually transmitted infection in the past year (54.2%). Factors associated with more frequent condom use with casual partners were: being single (28.9%), not living in a rented apartment or own home (32.1%), frequenting night clubs at the weekend (35.3%), not using drugs/opioids (54.1%), not being sure whether to keep a contact after learning of their HIV-positive status (10.1%), and having stronger opinions (either positive or negative) on homosexual individuals (15.5% and 32.1%, respectively), sex workers (18.7% and 23.9%, respectively) and drug users (13.2% and 36.5%, respectively). Condom use among students in northern Kosovo was low. Strategies for HIV prevention should be focussed on promoting healthy behaviours, especially among female students and students who live alone while at university. Moreover, sexuality education should be carried out in schools and primary health care centres to provide support and enable young people to negotiate safe sex.
Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs) with Hyper Suprime-Cam I: Revised Catalog of Coma Cluster UDGs

description: This is the first in a series of papers on the properties of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in clusters of galaxies. We present an updated catalog of UDGs in the Coma cluster using \textit{g}- and \textit{r}-band images obtained with Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) of the Subaru telescope. We develop a method to find UDGs even in the presence of contaminating objects, such as halos and background galaxies. This study expands upon our previous works that covered about half the area of the Coma cluster. The HSC observations covered the whole Coma cluster up to the virial radius and beyond (an area twice larger than the previous studies) and doubled the numbers of UDGs ($r_{\rm eff, r} \geq 1.5$ kpc) and sub-UDGs ($1.0 \leq r_{\rm eff, r} < 1.5$ kpc) to 774 and 729 respectively. The new UDGs show internal properties consistent with those of the previous studies (e.g., Sérsic index of approximately 1), and are distributed across the cluster, with a concentration around the cluster center. The whole cluster coverage clearly revealed an excess of their distribution toward the east to south-west direction along the cluster center, where Coma connects to the large scale structure, and where a known substructure exists (the NGC4839 subgroup). The alignment of the UDG distribution along the large scale structure around Coma supports the interpretation that most of them lie at the distance of the Coma cluster and the NGC4839 subgroup.
Towards phase-coherent caloritronics in superconducting circuits

description: The emerging field of phase-coherent caloritronics (from the Latin word "calor", i.e., heat) is based on the possibility to control heat currents using the phase difference of the superconducting order parameter. The goal is to design and implement thermal devices able to master energy transfer with a degree of accuracy approaching the one reached for charge transport by contemporary electronic components. This can be obtained by exploiting the macroscopic quantum coherence intrinsic to superconducting condensates, which manifests itself through the Josephson and the proximity effect. Here, we review recent experimental results obtained in the realization of heat interferometers and thermal rectifiers, and discuss a few proposals for exotic non-linear phase-coherent caloritronic devices, such as thermal transistors, solid-state memories, phase-coherent heat splitters, microwave refrigerators, thermal engines and heat valves. Besides being very attractive from the fundamental physics point of view, these systems are expected to have a vast impact on many cryogenic microcircuits requiring energy management, and possibly lay the first stone for the foundation of electronic thermal logic.

description: The management of multidrug-resistant strains of cytomegalovirus after solid organ transplantation is challenging. This case report demonstrates the successful treatment of a multidrug-resistant strain of cytomegalovirus that may represent a valuable option for problematic cases. This report illustrates the emergence of a multidrug-resistant cytomegalovirus (CMV) UL54 mutant strain in a renal transplant recipient with severe lymphopenia and thrombocytopenia. We show that the combined treatment with high-dose intravenous cytomegalovirus-specific immunoglobulins (CMV-IVIG) after the switch to a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-inhibitor and cyclosporine A was a successful treatment alternative to direct antiviral treatment with high-dose ganciclovir and foscarnet. This treatment was associated with a quantitative induction of CMV-specific CD4 and CD8 T cells that showed maturation in phenotype and functionality with decreasing viral load. Our case report illustrates that high-dose CMV-IVIG and conversion of immunosuppressive drugs to mTOR inhibitors and cyclosporine A can be a successful treatment in a situation where the use of direct antiviral drugs was considered insufficient.

WWII escape and evasion maps

description: This thesis examines the programme of mapping produced on silk, and other fabric, by MI9 to facilitate the escape and evasion of British military personnel during World War II. It considers the creation of MI9 in December 1939, the rationale for the new military intelligence branch and the context of the history of military mapping on silk. The map production programme is described, together with its progress and the challenges faced. The various groups of maps are identified and described, together with the source maps on which they were based. This description is developed in nine appendices produced as an integral part of the research to provide a comprehensive carto-bibliography of the 234 individual maps which have been identified. Location details of extant copies in British map collections are also provided. The ingenious methods of smuggling the maps into the camps, with other escape aids, in apparently innocuous leisure items are described. The maps were then copied and reproduced to support the escapes. Coded correspondence with the camps is discussed, and a successful deciphering of some of that correspondence is provided. The implications for the escape and evasion programme were considerable, but so too were the implications of the passage of intelligence from the camps to aid the war effort, a factor apparently largely overlooked in previous studies of the wartime role of the intelligence branches. Three case studies are provided to demonstrate the role and importance of the contribution made by the maps to the escape and evasion programme. The conclusion assesses the significance of this little known episode in British historical cartography of the twentieth century which essentially provides the latest chapter in the story of military mapping on silk, and other fabric, through the ages.
A Fuzzy Approach to Qualification in Design Exploration for Autonomous Robots and Systems

description: Autonomous robots must operate in complex and changing environments subject to requirements on their behaviour. Verifying absolute satisfaction (true or false) of these requirements is challenging. Instead, we analyse requirements that admit flexible degrees of satisfaction. We analyse vague requirements using fuzzy logic, and probabilistic requirements using model checking. The resulting analysis method provides a partial ordering of system designs, identifying trade-offs between different requirements in terms of the degrees to which they are satisfied. A case study involving a home care robot interacting with a human is used to demonstrate the approach.

description: The study objective was to investigate factors associated with condom use among university students. During the 2013–2014 academic year, 1017 first and fourth year students from the University of Pristina temporarily seated in Kosovska Mitrovica, northern Kosovo, completed a questionnaire on sociodemographic data, HIV-related knowledge, attitudes and risky behaviours. Condom use during the most recent sexual encounter and with casual partners was reported by just over half of participants. Factors associated with condom use during the most recent sexual encounter were: being male (35.1%), using medical sources of information about HIV (35.7%), having a positive approach to HIV testing (40.1%) and a positive attitude towards sex workers (17.7%), as well as not having had a sexually transmitted infection in the past year (54.2%). Factors associated with more frequent condom use with casual partners were: being single (28.9%), not living in a rented apartment or own home (32.1%), frequenting night clubs at the weekend (35.3%), not using drugs/opioids (54.1%), not being sure whether to keep a contact after learning of their HIV-positive status (10.1%), and having stronger opinions (either positive or negative) on homosexual individuals (15.5% and 32.1%, respectively), sex workers (18.7% and 23.9%, respectively) and drug users (13.2% and 36.5%, respectively). Condom use among students in northern Kosovo was low. Strategies for HIV prevention should be focussed on promoting healthy behaviours, especially among female students and students who live alone while at university. Moreover, sexuality education should be carried out in schools and primary health care centres to provide support and enable young people to negotiate safe sex.

description: We aimed to identify barriers to breastfeeding-compatible post-placental intrauterine devices (IUDs) for expectant predominantly non-Hispanic African-American women. This cross-sectional survey study, conducted at 3 Cleveland community partner locations, enrolled 119 expectant predominantly unmarried but partnered non-Hispanic African-American women. The survey assessed contraceptive, IUD-specific and breastfeeding attitudes and intentions. Survey responses were described with percentages and frequencies, and compared by feeding intention using 2-sided Chi-Square tests. Factor analysis with Varimax rotation identified 2 potential measures of reluctance to post-placental IUD acceptance. The relationship of factors scores to maternal characteristics was assessed. Feeding intention (breastfeeding versus not) was not related to perceived barriers to post-placental IUD receipt among expectant minority women. A “Personal Risks Reluctance” factor included low risk IUD events (migration and expulsion), misconceptions (delayed fertility return), menstrual changes and partner preference: a higher score was significantly associated with younger age group but no other maternal characteristics. A “Not Me Reasons” factor included provider and insurance barriers, and was not related to any maternal characteristics. Expectant minority women’s perceived barriers to post-placental IUDs are not related to prenatal feeding intentions. We identified two clinically relevant factors that appear to measure barriers to post-placental IUD acceptance.
