Publisher: name: Electronic Book Review
Year: 2019

description: Here we transcribe an extended conversation between hypertext author Bill Bly and Ph.D. candidate Brian Davis that began in January 2018 at the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH), home to The Bill Bly Collection of Electronic Literature. They discuss Bly's long-term electronic hypertext project, We Descend, Archives Pertaining to Egderus Scriptor (1997-present), as well as the history of electronic hypertext and hypertext theory, the technological challenges of born digital writing and archiving, book-archives and archival poetics, and the value of innovative writing and deep reading amidst the current century's "hodgepodge," "higgledy-piggledy" social media.
title: Suspended Poetics: Echoes of The Seven Odes in Arabic E-Literature
Creators: name: Elahi , Babak
Publisher: name: Electronic Book Review
Year: 2019

description: Babak Elahi shows how electronic literature in its public display, its interactivity, and its paradoxical combination of ephemerality and permanence brings us closer to the ancients than to the moderns - and closer still to the collective ritual experiences that Arabic and Muslim literature always valued over Western individualism. Further still, the emergence of Arabic e-lit does not just mean inclusions of still more cultural or ethnic identities. The politics of identity is yet another Western concern that an online Arabic poetics is happy to leave behind.
title: Monstrous Weathered: Experiences from the Telling and Retelling of a Netprov
Creators: name: Mitchell , Alex
Publisher: name: Electronic Book Review
Year: 2019

description: A consideration of Monstrous Weather, a recent netprov (or networked improvisation) and the ways that collaborative storytelling encourages the rereading, retelling, rewriting, and adaptation of stories that begin as performances, and then turn into a form of archiving through still further rereading, rewriting and retelling. Author Alex Mitchell begins by depicting how, during the original performance of Monstrous Weather, there was a constant reworking, remixing and retelling of texts, both literally and through references and embellishments. This process gradually coalesced the loose collection of story fragments into something that had a kind of coherence, if not as a story, then at least as a storyworld. Mitchell discuss two particular performances/remixes: a live reading of excerpts from the netprov performed at the Electronic Literature Organization (ELO) Conference 2017 almost exactly 1 year after the initial performance, and a subsequent hypertext remix/archive.

description: Cognition, as we've known for quite some time, is much larger than consciousness. And that realization can help explain literature's longtime, productive fascination with the unconscious. But today, when a scholar such as N. Katherine Hayles connects "nonconscious cognition to a wide range of technical, financial, and literary issues," we are set to fundamentally rethink the "nature and value of the humanities today."

description: In this work we show the results obtained from the VLBA data at 15 GHz of OJ 287 in the super-resolution mode. The data showed a jet configuration in the form of "fork" where superluminal components emerge via stationary components at the northwest and the southeast close to the core to form parallel trajectories along the southwest direction in the plane of the sky. This agrees with a source structure of an extended, broad morphology of OJ 287.

description: We assess the energy limit up to which Heavy Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory (HBChPT) can be applied to the process of neutral pion photoproduction from the proton by analyzing the latest data collected by the MAMI/A2 collaboration at Mainz. The high-quality differential cross section and the photon asymmetry measured data allow to test the theory at a level not previously achieved. We find that, within the current experimental status, the agreement between theory and experiment is excellent up to $\sim$170 MeV. Above this energy HBChPT fails to provide high-quality fits while an empirical parametrization of the multipoles still provides an excellent description of the data.

description: An adsorption study of Xe on both the bare Ge(100) surface, as well as on thin NaCl films grown pseudomorphically on Ge(100), was carried out using high-resolution low-energy electron diffraction. Ordered phases and phase diagrams were investigated in quasiequilibrium with room-temperature gas. Starting from low pressures, a transition from a disordered lattice gas to a distorted hexagonal phase was found for Xe on NaCl(100) in addition to the hexagonal bulk phase, which grows as a multilayer phase. The distorted hexagonal phase was found to be commensurate with the substrate in only one direction. At lower temperatures and/or higher pressures, the onset of three-dimensional growth is observed in the form of a hexagonal nanocrystalline phase (average grain size 80 Å) with Xe bulk lattice constant which is still oriented along the [110] direction with one of its axes. Both phase transitions are of first order, with pronounced hysteresis effects for the second. On Ge(100), no additional superstructure spots are induced by Xe before the bulk phase grows. The (2×1) reconstruction is maintained, but characteristic jumps in intensity of integral order as well as of half-order beams are observed as a function of temperature and pressure so that Xe seems to lock on defined sites in (2×1) registry. Phase diagrams for Xe adsorbed on both surfaces were derived and heats of transition at the phase boundaries were determined.

description: A thermoresponsive and recyclable nanomaterial was synthesized by surface modification of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (P(NIPAAm-co-DEAEMA)), having PNIPAAm as a thermoresponsive moiety and PDEAEMA for catalyst binding. Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles were incorporated into this material, and the resulting nanocatalyst was efficient in the hydrogenation of olefins and nitro compounds with turnover frequencies (TOFs) up to 750 h–1. Consistent catalytic activity in 10 consecutive runs was observed when performing the hydrogenation at 45 °C, i.e., above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the copolymer (37 °C), followed by cooling to 15 °C, i.e., below the LCST of the copolymer.

description: Du point de vue de la transmission, la qualité de vie au travail (QVT), en tant que projet logique systémique et structuré, peut être décrite, analysée, étudiée, enseignée, en tenant compte d’une réalité : si ce modèle comporte des caractéristiques bien identifiables, dont la pédagogie fait appel à la réflexion, il est aussi offre de changement global du couple bien-être et efficacité, qui touche des structures sensibles de représentation et de croyance, et demande une approche pédagogique spécifique. Tout dessein de former à la QVT répond à un impératif : celui d’inventer soi-même le cadre de référence du sujet. La QVT ne constitue ni projet simple ni une idéologie limitée, et son enseignement doit suivre quatre temps chronologiques : la première étape est celle de la compréhension intellectuelle des principes ; le second temps est relatif aux aspects réglementaires qui situent la QVT dans un cadre de référence ; le troisième temps trace les dispositions méthodologiques qui viennent permettre de mettre en œuvre les notions ; et le dernier temps est celui de la construction personnalisée des modèles d’action. Des problématiques spécifiques se posent : la QVT vise la transformation de nos modes de « penser le travail », et elle s’accommode mieux de l’exercice personnel que du référentiel de contenus. De même, la démarche « inclusive » qu’elle suppose rencontre parfois une limite intellectuelle, lorsqu’est sollicitée la capacité de synthèse, de vision ou de projection. On souligne aussi la sensibilité particulière du modèle de la QVT au champ politique, et l’absence notable du tiers le plus concerné : le patient. La QVT est un véritable changement paradigmatique, et son enseignement entraîne la nécessité d’inventer une pédagogie appropriée.

description: Recent theoretical efforts aimed at understanding the nature of antiferromagnetic ordering in GdNi2B2C predicted double-q ordering. Here we employ resonant elastic x-ray scattering to test this theory against the formerly proposed, single-q ordering scenario. Our study reveals a satellite reflection associated with a mixed-order component propagation wave vector, viz., (q_a,2q_b,0) with q_b = q_a approx= 0.55 reciprocal lattice units, the presence of which is incompatible with single-q ordering but is expected from the double-q model. A (3q_a,0,0) wave vector (i.e., third-order) satellite is also observed, again in line with the double-q model. The temperature dependencies of these along with that of a first-order satellite are compared with calculations based on the double-q model and reasonable qualitative agreement is found. By examining the azimuthal dependence of first-order satellite scattering, we show the magnetic order to be, as predicted, elliptically polarized at base temperature and find the temperature dependence of the "out of a-b plane" moment component to be in fairly good agreement with calculation. Our results provide qualitative support for the double-q model and thus in turn corroborate the explanation for the "magnetoelastic paradox" offered by this model.

A new way of detecting intergalactic baryons
Creators: name: Lieu, Richard

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: For each photon wave packet of extragalactic light, the dispersion by line-of-sight intergalactic plasma causes an increase in the envelope width and a chirp (drift) in the carrier frequency. It is shown that for continuous emission of many temporally overlapping wave packets with random epoch phases, such as quasars in the radio band, this in turn leads to quasi-periodic variations in the intensity of the arriving light on timescales between the coherence time (defined as the reciprocal of the bandwidth of frequency selection, taken here as of order 0.01 GHz for radio observations) and the stretched envelope, with most of the fluctuation power on the latter scale which is typically in the millisecond range for intergalactic dispersion. Thus, by monitoring quasar light curves on such short scales, it should be possible to determine the line-of-sight plasma column along the many directions and distances to the various quasars, affording one a 3-dimensional picture of the ionized baryons in the near universe.

description: An atomic force microscope (AFM) is used to locally deplete the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) of a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. The depletion is induced by repeated mechanical scribing of the surface layers of the heterostructure using the AFM tip. Measuring the room-temperature resistance across the scribed lines during fabrication provides in situ control of the depletion of the 2DEG. Variation of the room-temperature resistance of such lines tunes their low-temperature characteristics from tunneling up to insulating behavior. Using this technique, an in-plane-gate transistor and a single-electron transistor were fabricated. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

description: Apple replant disease (ARD) is a serious threat to producers of apple trees and fruits worldwide. The ARD etiology is not unraveled and managing options are either economically not applicable or environmentally harmful. Thus, interest is given in biomarkers that allow to indicate ARD situations at early time points in order to classify soils according to ARD severity but also to analyze the effectiveness to potential countermeasures. This study aimed at (i) identifying ARD biomarkers on the transcriptional level in root tissue by analyzing the expression of previously identified candidate genes in ARD soils of different origin and texture and (ii) testing the specificity of these marker genes to ARD. In vitro propagated M26 plantlets were submitted to a bio-test with three ARD soils, either untreated or disinfected by γ-irradiation. Expression of seven candidate genes identified in a previous transcriptomic study was investigated by RT-qPCR in a time course experiment. Already three days after planting, a prominent upregulation of the phytoalexin biosynthesis genes biphenyl synthase 3 (BIS3) and biphenyl 4-hydroxylase (B4Hb) was observed in the untreated ARD variants of all three soils. The phytoalexin composition in roots was comparable for all three soils and the total phytoalexin content correlated with the expression of BIS3 and B4Hb. The third promising candidate gene that was upregulated under ARD conditions was the ethylene-responsive transcription factor 1B-like (ERF1B). In a second experiment M26 plantlets were exposed to different abiotic stressors, namely heat, salt and nutrient starvation, and candidate gene expression was determined in the roots. The expression levels of BIS3 and B4Hb were highly and specifically upregulated in ARD soil, but not upon the abiotic stress conditions, whereas ERF1B also showed higher expression under heat stress. In conclusion, BIS3 and B4Hb are recommended as early ARD biomarkers due to their high expression levels and their high specificity. Copyright: © 2020 Rohr et al.

description: Introduction. L‘augmentation des interfaces ville-hôpital et la multiplication des acteurs au cours de la prise en charge des patients nécessitent de mettre en place une organisation pluridisciplinaire et transversale pour mieux maîtriser le risque de rupture dans leurs parcours. Objectif. Effectuer un retour d’expérience d’une revue de mortalité-morbidité (RMM) au sein d’un réseau de santé en périnatalité, le but de celle-ci étant d’analyser les évènements indésirables associés aux soins relatifs aux parcours ville-hôpital des mères et des nouveau-nés pour mieux sécuriser leur prise en charge. Population et méthode. Le projet a été géré selon la méthodologie de la Haute Autorité de santé, avec l’accompagnement méthodologique de la structure régionale d’appui à la qualité et la sécurité des prises en charge en Île-de-France. Résultats. Les RMM ciblées sur le parcours ville-hôpital semblent constituer une méthode pertinente pour sensibiliser et impliquer les professionnels dans cette démarche. Des points forts ont émergé : rôle fédérateur du réseau, qualité des échanges entre professionnels, apport des experts, et participation des représentants d’usagers. Plusieurs points de vigilance sont à considérer pour garantir la qualité de la démarche collective : présence de l’ensemble des acteurs concernés, qualité de l’animation des RMM (bienveillance, gestion du temps, analyse), et suivi des plans d’action. Conclusion. L’expertise et l’accompagnement par un gestionnaire de risques sont des plus-values non négligeables pour mener à bien ces projets. Une étude complémentaire à court et moyen termes serait nécessaire pour évaluer l’impact de ces RMM sur la qualité et la sécurité des soins, au regard des actions d’amélioration qui auront été menées au sein du réseau de santé périnatal parisien.

description: Main conclusion: Swelling of sweet cherry cell walls is a physical process counterbalanced by turgor. Cell turgor prevents swelling in intact cells, whereas loss of turgor allows cell walls to swell. Abstract: Swelling of epidermal cell walls precedes skin failure in sweet cherry (Prunus avium) cracking. Swollen cell walls lead to diminished cell:cell adhesions. We identify the mechanism of cell wall swelling. Swelling was quantified microscopically on epidermal sections following freeze/thaw treatment or by determining swelling pressure or swelling capacity of cell wall extracts. Releasing turgor by a freeze/thaw treatment increased cell wall thickness 1.6-fold within 2 h. Pressurizing cell wall extracts at > 12 kPa prevented swelling in water, while releasing the pressure increased swelling. The effect was fully reversible. Across cultivars, cell wall thickness before and after turgor release in two subsequent seasons was significantly correlated (before release of turgor: r = 0.71**, n = 14; after release of turgor: r = 0.73**, n = 14) as was the swelling of cell walls upon turgor release (r = 0.71**, n = 14). Close relationships were also identified for cell wall thickness of fruit of the same cultivars grown in the greenhouse and the field (before release of turgor: r = 0.60, n = 10; after release of turgor: r = 0.78**, n = 10). Release of turgor by heating, plasmolysis, incubation in solvents or surfactants resulted in similar swelling (range 2.0–3.1 µm). Cell wall swelling increased from 1.4 to 3.0 µm as pH increased from pH 2.0 to 5.0 but remained nearly constant between pH 5.0 and 8.0. Increasing ethanol concentration decreased swelling. Swelling of sweet cherry cell walls is a physical process counterbalanced by turgor. © 2020, The Author(s).

description: Objectif. Réorganiser et optimiser le circuit du médicament au bloc opératoire en tenant compte des bonnes pratiques dans le cadre d’un déménagement dans un nouveau bâtiment. Méthode. Il s’agit d’une étude descriptive et observationnelle menée au centre hospitalier universitaire (CHU) Sainte-Justine. L’étude comporte une revue de la littérature, une période d’observation directe semi-structurée, une analyse des modes de défaillance, de leurs effets et de leur criticité, un profil des incidents/accidents au bloc et l’identification d’actions correctrices. Résultats. Sur les 47 articles français et anglais, 19 ont été retenus. À partir de l’observation directe, 18 écarts de conformité ont été identifiés et regroupés sous 9 grandes étapes du circuit du médicament. De tous les incidents et accidents déclarés du 1er avril 2011 au 31 mars 2017 au sein de l‘établissement, 3,9 % proviennent du bloc opératoire et de la salle de réveil. Trente-et-une actions correctrices ont été identifiées et implantées, partiellement implantées ou reportées. Un panel de six experts a évalué une réduction du score de criticité de 2 472 prédéménagement à 1 884 postdéménagement et l’implantation des actions correctrices. Conclusion. Cette étude présente une démarche intégrée, fondée sur une revue documentaire, une revue des pratiques et des données et une démarche collégiale visant à améliorer les pratiques du circuit du médicament au bloc opératoire. Elle a été réalisée au sein d’un CHU où il est habituel d’évaluer les pratiques. Il est possible de réorganiser et d’optimiser le circuit du médicament au bloc opératoire en tenant compte des bonnes pratiques.

description: Dans le parcours des malades admis en service chirurgical, le transfert de salle de surveillance postinterventionnelle (SSPI) vers le service de soins est un point à risque dans la prescription médicamenteuse. Dans notre établissement avant mars 2015 les prescriptions en secteur d’anesthésie étaient informatisées (logiciel Diane®) et le départ de SSPI vers un service de soins était accompagné d’une édition papier de la prescription. En 2015 les services de chirurgie ont été informatisés (logiciel Crossway®). Ceci a entraîné un changement : les anesthésistes doivent prescrire via le logiciel Crossway® en sortie de SSPI pour les patients allant dans un service informatisé en plus de continuer à prescrire via Diane® pour l’ensemble des patients en SSPI. Une 1re enquête a été menée début 2016 sur les patients hospitalisés dans un service informatisé à la sortie de SSPI. Une 2e enquête a été réalisée en 2017 en incluant uniquement les patientes sorties de SSPI et hospitalisées dans le secteur maternité (gynécologie et suites de couches) qui a été entièrement informatisé fin 2016. La conformité des prescriptions en sortie de SSPI lors de la 1re enquête est de 57 %. Elle varie en fonction du service de sortie. Lors de la 2eenquête, il semble qu’il y ait eu une augmentation de cette conformité en secteur maternité par rapport à la 1re enquête. Cette étude montre la difficulté de faire coexister deux outils informatiques au sein d’un même service sans interface entre eux. Des situations similaires dans notre établissement doivent être explorées.
CSO... One size fits all (or almost): A sociological perspective of the Community Service Order in Australia

Community service order

description: This thesis is a sociological study of the development and diversification of a relatively recent penal sanction and one which is an alternative sentence to imprisonment, namely, the Australian community service order. The sociological analysis to which this development and diversification is subjected operates at three distinct levels: macro, middle, and micro. This thesis functions at the middle level or range of theory, by providing a synthesis of classical positions in sociology. The central contention of this thesis is that all three levels of sociological analysis - macro, middle, and micro - are necessary for an understanding of the institution of the community service order, or any other institution of the Australian criminal justice system. Further, this thesis further argues that there is no single event or cause that can explain why the community service order came into existence as a non-prison alternative sentence when it did. The community service order became an 'acceptable' alternative due to a combination of macro elements (such as political ideologies, and social control) that operated to bring about major changes in public attitudes towards imprisonment. The community service order's highly diverse nature can be explained, at the middle level of sociological analysis, by showing that governments of the various Australian jurisdictions, their bureaucracies, the judiciary, and elements of the general community found a number of different needs and uses, over time, for the community service order scheme. The capacity for the community service order scheme to 'work' under diverse circumstances can be largely explained, at the micro level, by reference to the work of Homans on ’social behaviour as exchange’ and Tarde's 'diffusion of innovations' thesis.
Comparative Study of Electronic structure of New Superconductors (Sr,Ca)Pd2As2 and related compound BaPd2As2

description: This paper presents the comparative study of LDA calculated electronic structure of new isostructural to iron based systems superconductors (Sr,Ca)Pd2As2 with Tc about 1K and similar but structurally different system BaPd2As2. Despite chemical formula looks similar to iron superconductors and even main structural motif is the same - layers of Fe square lattices, electronic structure of (Sr,Ca)Pd2As2 and BaPd2As2 differs from Fe(As,Se)-HTSC completely. All these systems have essentially three dimensional Fermi surfaces in contrast to Fe(As,Se) materials. The Fermi level is crossed by low intensive tails of Pd-4d and As-4p states. However (Sr,Ca)Pd2As2 and BaPd2As2 materials have rather well developed peaks of Pd-4d(x2-y2) band. Thus by doping of about 2 holes per unit cell one can increase density of states at the Fermi level by a factor about 2.5. Since experimentally these compounds were found to be simple BCS superconductors the hole doping may considerably increase Tc. LDA calculated total densities of states at the Fermi level for stoichiometric systems perfectly agree with experimental estimates signifying rather small role of electronic correlations.

description: Thermoresponsive poly(glycidyl ether) brushes can be grafted to applied tissue culture substrates and used for the fabrication of primary human cell sheets. The self-assembly of such brushes is achieved via the directed physical adsorption and subsequent UV immobilization of block copolymers equipped with a short, photo-reactive benzophenone-based anchor block. Depending on the chemistry and hydrophobicity of the benzophenone anchor, we demonstrate that such block copolymers exhibit distinct thermoresponsive properties and aggregation behaviors in water. Independent on the block copolymer composition, we developed a versatile grafting-to process which allows the fabrication of poly(glycidyl ether) brushes on various tissue culture substrates from dilute aqueous-ethanolic solution. The viability of this process crucially depends on the chemistry and hydrophobicity of, both, benzophenone-based anchor block and substrate material. Utilizing these insights, we were able to manufacture thermoresponsive poly(glycidyl ether) brushes on moderately hydrophobic polystyrene and polycarbonate as well as on rather hydrophilic polyethylene terephthalate and tissue culture-treated polystyrene substrates. We further show that the temperature-dependent switchability of the brush coatings is not only dependent on the cloud point temperature of the block copolymers, but also markedly governed by the hydrophobicity of the surface-bound benzophenone anchor and the subjacent substrate material. Our findings demonstrate that the design of amphiphilic thermoresponsive block copolymers is crucial for their phase transition characteristics in solution and on surfaces. © 2020 by the authors.

description: Accurate molecular imaging via high-order harmonic generation relies on comparing harmonic emission from a laser-irradiated molecule and an adequate reference system. However, an ideal reference atom with the same ionization properties as the molecule is not always available. We show that for suitably designed, very short laser pulses, a one-to-one mapping from high-order harmonic frequencies to electron momenta in above-threshold ionization exists. Comparing molecular and atomic momentum distributions then provides the electron recollision amplitude in the molecule for enhanced molecular imaging. The method retrieves the molecular recombination transition moments highly accurately, even with suboptimal reference atoms. © 2012 American Physical Society.

The resulting radial thermovoltages exhibit sawtooth-like oscillations with the magnetic field, taking large positive (negative) values just below (above) integer fillings with sign reversal at the center of the quantum Hall plateaus. The behavior is in agreement with a recent theory [Y. Barlas and K. Yang: Phys. Rev. B 85 (2012) 195107], which treats disorder within the self-consistent Born approximation.

International relations

description: As the international system becomes increasingly multi-polar in the 21st century, International Relations will have to address the issue of how states with different values and traditions to the West might practice statecraft. Orthodox explanations of state behaviour in the form of Realism and Liberalism have offered limited analytical attention to understanding the underlying differences in political values which states might have. This thesis compares two images of ancient statecraft, the History oj the Peloponnesian War and the Huainanzi. The comparative content of this work is a fresh approach which has only recently received interest amongst International Relations scholars and is a fertile field for future research. Not only have these two texts been highly influential in leaving enduring legacies for political theory in Ancient Greece and Ancient China they also offer a glimpse into what the practice of statecraft might look like in the future. This work will compare the two images of statecraft and position them in relation to contemporary approaches to statecraft. The implications are twofold. First, a direct comparison promises to shed insight into enduring features of statecraft that remain relevant both now and in the foreseeable future. Second, they highlight alternative paradigms of approaching the practice of statecraft from two thinkers in different intellectual and cultural traditions. These two paradigms are then compared to suggest that the International Relations in the 21st century will need greater consideration for theoretical plurality and synthesis to remain relevant to the contemporary needs of statecraft.
Thermal field theory at next-to-leading order in the hard thermal loop expansion

description: In this paper we study the hard-thermal-loop effective theory at next-to-leading order. Standard power-counting predicts that a large number of diagrams, including 2-loop diagrams, may need to be calculated. In all of the calculations that have been done however, with the exception of the photon self-energy, the full next-to-leading order contribution can be obtained by calculating only soft 1-loop diagrams with effective lines and vertices. It is of interest to know if the photon self-energy is the only exception to this rule, or if there are others, and which ones. In this paper we perform a refined power-counting analysis using real-time finite temperature field theory which is particularly well suited to the task. We show that the standard power-counting rules obtained from the imaginary time formalism usually over-estimate the size of the 2-loop diagrams. We argue that the only exceptions to the rule that the 1-loop soft diagrams give the next-to-leading order contribution are $2n$-photon vertices.

Non-thermal emission from star-forming galaxies
Creators: name: Roth, Matt
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2023

description: Star-forming galaxies are a copious source of non-thermal radiation. This emission spans 20 orders of magnitude in photon energy, from ultrahigh energy gamma-rays at PeV energies to radio emission at mueV energies. Most of this emission is produced by radiative losses of charged relativistic particles, or cosmic rays, which were accel- erated in the shock waves of supernova remnants, amongst other sources. Cosmic rays are dynamically important for galaxy evolution in that they provide an impor- tant feedback mechanism for star-formation. While we can observe the local cosmic ray spectrum directly, to study their effects in regions of the Galaxy well beyond the Solar system or in external galaxies, we need to observe their non-thermal emission. This work shows how a galaxy model that requires only a few input parameters that are easily observed for high redshift objects, such as the star formation rate, stellar mass, half-light radius and redshift, is sufficient to reproduce their non-thermal spec- tra. The model achieves this by considering the energy losses cosmic rays suffer as they diffuse through the interstellar medium within the galactic disc and halo. This knowledge is then used to derive the contribution star-forming galaxies make to the diffuse isotropic gamma-ray background, explain the origin of the far-infrared radio and other empirical correlations, and simultaneously obtain radio spectral indices that match observation. This is achieved self-consistently and making 'standard' assump- tions for quantities like, e.g., the fraction of supernova mechanical energy that goes to CRs and the state of the interstellar medium, and without having to resort to fine- tuning of the model. The code developed in this work, CONGRuENTS (COsmic-ray, Neutrino, Gamma-ray and Radio Non-Thermal Spectra), is open source and available at github.com/astromatt42/CONGRuENTS.
Guaranteed epsilon-optimal treatment plans with minimum number of beams for stereotactic body radiation therapy

description: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is characterized by delivering a high amount of dose in a short period of time. In SBRT the dose is delivered using open fields (e.g., beam's-eye-view) known as "apertures". Mathematical methods can be used for optimizing treatment planning for delivery of sufficient dose to the cancerous cells while keeping the dose to surrounding organs at risk (OARs) minimal. Two important elements of a treatment plan are quality and delivery time. Quality of a plan is measured based on the target coverage and dose to OARs. Delivery time heavily depends on the number of beams used in the plan since the setup times for different beam directions constitute a large portion of the delivery time. Therefore the ideal plan, in which all potential beams can be used simultaneously, will be associated with a long impractical delivery time. We use the dose to OARs in the ideal plan to find the plan with the minimum number of beams which is guaranteed to be epsilon-optimal (i.e., a predetermined maximum deviation from the ideal plan is guaranteed). Since the treatment plan optimization is inherently a multicriteria optimization problem, the planner can navigate the ideal dose distribution Pareto surface and select a plan of desired target coverage versus OARs sparing, and then use the proposed technique to reduce the number of beams while guaranteeing epsilon-optimality. We use mixed integer programming (MIP) for optimization. To reduce the computation time for the resultant MIP, we use two heuristics: a beam elimination scheme and a family of heuristic cuts, known as "neighbor cuts", based on the concept of "adjacent beams". We show the effectiveness of the proposed solution technique on two clinical cases, a liver and a lung case. Based on our technique we propose an algorithm for fast generation of epsilon-optimal plans.

title: Towards Gestural Specificity in Digital Literature
Creators: name: Bouchardon, Serge
Publisher: name: Electronic Book Review
Year: 2018

description: In this essay, Serge Bouchardon looks to electronic literary and its important predecessors in a way that prioritizes gesture and manipulation. Bouchardon interrogates how technology alters and opens the way that literature can be materially engaged-with by its readers, a way that deliberately encourages its readers to engage physically and agentially with the text. In this way, Bouchardon reveals a way of critiquing electronic literature that expands upon the physically-engaging properties of print.

description: Advanced LIGO's second observing run (O2), conducted from 2016 November 30 to 2017 August 25, combined with Advanced Virgo's first observations in 2017 August, witnessed the birth of gravitational-wave multimessenger astronomy. The first ever gravitational-wave detection from the coalescence of two neutron stars, GW170817, and its gamma-ray counterpart, GRB 170817A, led to an electromagnetic follow-up of the event at an unprecedented scale. Several teams from across the world searched for EM/neutrino counterparts to GW170817, paving the way for the discovery of optical, X-ray, and radio counterparts. In this article, we describe the online identification of gravitational-wave transients and the distribution of gravitational-wave alerts by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations during O2. We also describe the gravitational-wave observables that were sent in the alerts to enable searches for their counterparts. Finally, we give an overview of the online candidate alerts shared with observing partners during O2. Alerts were issued for 14 candidates, 6 of which have been confirmed as gravitational-wave events associated with the merger of black holes or neutron stars. Of the 14 alerts, 8 were issued less than an hour after data acquisition.

description: Aftera briefreview of therecent evolvement oforganic-silicon heterojunction solar cells,we present here our latest measurements of the saturation current densities (J0) and contact resistances (RC) of crystalline silicon (c-Si)/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) junctions. We determine the J0values by means of contactless carrier lifetime measurements and theRCvalues by comparing sheet resistance measurements with numerical device simulations of the corresponding test structure. Application of an adopted PEDOT:PSS blend and an optimized silicon surface treatmentresults in a minimalJ0value of46 fA/cm2, limiting the solar cell open-circuit voltage to Voc-limit=708 mV, and a minimal RCvalue of 100 m?cm2. Our optimized silicon surface pre-treatment in combination with the adapted PEDOT:PSS blendare successfully implemented into a cell process with the PEDOT:PSS layer located at the rear surface (the so-called 'BackPEDOT concept'). Record-high efficiencies of 18.3% and of 20.6% are achieved onn-type silicon and onp-type silicon wafers, respectively. Finally, we compare the internal quantum efficiency of our champion BackPEDOT solar cell with that of a state-of-the-art Al2O3/SiNx-passivated PERC solar cell.
