LAND ACQUISITION AND RIGHTS OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLE: SPECIAL REFERENCE TO DAM PROJECTS IN ODISHA
Creators: name: Dr. Abhimanyu Sethy
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022
Subjects: Rights, acquisition, development, land & indigenous.

description: Abstract Land acquisition is a process of purchase of land belonging to the citizens by the Government for the purpose of various infrastructure and development projects. Tribal people's rights are broad human rights in recent times. The development projects forced them to losing their land means a loss of contact with their mother land and loss of identity. Protections of indigenous land rights continue to be a major challenge, with the gap between development-induced displacement and rehabilitation in India. In India the development projects displaced so many indigenous peoples from their lands. Many of these projects are opposed for their human rights and environmental impacts. The rights of Indigenous Peoples are guaranteed in the Indian Constitution. Part IV of the Constitution lays down the Directive Principles of State Policy. Several laws and constitutional provisions in India recognize indigenous peoples’ rights to land and self-governance. The laws aimed at protecting indigenous people’s right The Indian government voted in favour of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). The DPSP lay down the fundamental principles for the governance of the country and the state is directed to secure the ownership and control of the material resources of the tribal community are so distributed as best to the common good.

description: We calculate the collective mode spectrum in models of superconductors with attractive interactions in s-and d channels as a function of their relative strength, across a phase diagram that includes transition between s, s+id, and d-wave ground states. For one-band systems, we recover the largely known results for the phase, amplitude, and Bardasis-Schrieffer modes of pure s or d-states, and show how the well-defined Bardasis-Schrieffer mode softens near the s + id phase boundary and evolves in a characteristic manner through the s + id phase as a mixed symmetry mode. For two-band systems, we consider a model of hole-doped Fe-based superconductors, and find in the case of an s-wave ground state a well-defined Bardasis-Schrieffer mode below the lowest gap edge, as well as a second, damped mode of this type between the two gap energies. Both modes soften as the s + id phase is approached, and only a single "mixed-symmetry Bardasis-Schrieffer mode" below the pairbreaking continuum propagates in the s + id phase itself. These modes coexist with a damped Leggett mode with collective frequency between the two gap scales. In the pure d-state, no Bardasis-Schrieffer type s excitonic mode exists at low T. We briefly discuss Raman scattering experiments and how they can be used to identify an s + id state, and to track the evolution of competing s- and d- interactions in these systems.

description: The current study sought to examine the impact of strengthening cigarette pack warnings on attention, message processing, and perceived effectiveness, through a systematic review of longitudinal observational studies. The review included 22 studies (N = 81,824 participants). Strengthened warnings increased attention to warnings, recall of warnings, and thinking about the health risks of smoking. Strengthened warnings also increased several perceived effectiveness outcomes, including perceptions that warnings reduce smoking and motivate quitting. Strengthened cigarette pack warnings achieve their goal of attracting attention and enhancing motivation to act. Strengthening warning policies should be a priority for tobacco control globally.

description: At super-Eddington rates accretion flows onto black holes have been described as slim (aspect ratio $H/R \lesssim 1$) or thick (H/R >1) discs, also known as tori or (Polish) doughnuts. The relation between the two descriptions has never been established, but it was commonly believed that at sufficiently high accretion rates slim discs inflate, becoming thick. We wish to establish under what conditions slim accretion flows become thick. We use analytical equations, numerical 1+1 schemes, and numerical radiative MHD codes to describe and compare various accretion flow models at very high accretion rates.We find that the dominant effect of advection at high accretion rates precludes slim discs becoming thick. At super-Eddington rates accretion flows around black holes can always be considered slim rather than thick.

description: Nowadays, semiconductor devices are used in many aspects of our daily life and drive innovation within the industrial sector. Molding Compounds (MCs), used as an encapsulation material, play an important role in the lifetime of these devices. MC is a composite material consisting of silica particles, synthetic polymer, and additives. Ionic contamination within the material has a major impact on the reliability, as electrical fields may induce ion migration and accumulation on the microchips. As not every ionic species is mobile within MC, it is of great interest to determine the mobile ion fraction from the total and mobile ion content.For industrial application, the standard SEMI G29 is used as an extraction procedure which requires 48 h of extraction time using 100 mL of water and 10 g of MC at 120 °C with subsequent analysis of the derived extract using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry/Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-MS/OES). This brings two disadvantages: long preparation and great sample consumption, resulting in low sample throughput. As a result, manufacturers tend to shorten the extraction time leading to incomparable results. In this work, a method for total ion quantification within MC via ICP-MS was developed. A microwave-based extraction method using ICP-OES was developed for mobile ion determination which was then compared to the standard procedure. Extraction times and temperatures were varied from 30 min to 96 h and 60 °C to 225 °C. Results show that elements Li, Na, K, Mg and Ca are mobile within already 30 min of extraction and shorter extraction times and higher temperatures are favorable, yielding a higher sample throughput. With these results, further experiments can be conducted, investigating the short-term leaching behavior of MC.

Using dislocations to probe surface reconstruction in thick freely suspended liquid crystalline films

Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)

description: Surface interactions can cause freely suspended thin liquid crystalline films to form phases different from the bulk material, but it is not known what happens at the surface of thick films. Edge dislocations can be used as a marker for the boundary between the bulk center and the reconstructed surface. We use noncontact mode atomic force microscopy to determine the depth of edge dislocations below the surface of freely suspended thick films of 4-n-heptyloxybenzylidene-4-n-heptylaniline (7O.7) in the crystalline B phase. 3.0 +/- 0.1 nm high steps are found with a width that varies with temperature between 56 C and 59 C. Using a strain model for the profile of liquid crystalline layers above an edge dislocation to estimate the depth of the dislocation, we find that the number of reconstructed surface layers increases from 4 to 50 layers as the temperature decreases from 59 C to 56 C. This trend tracks the behavior of the phase boundary in the thickness dependent phase diagram of freely suspended films of 7O.7, suggesting that the surface may be reconstructed into a smectic F region.

description: Non-thermal plasmas are used in various applications to inactivate biological agents or biomolecules. A complex cocktail of reactive species, (V)UV radiation and in some cases exposure to an electric field together cause the detrimental effects. In contrast to this disruptive property of technical plasmas, we have shown previously that it is possible to use non-thermal plasma-generated species such as H2O2 as cosubstrates in biocatalytic reactions. One of the main limitations in plasma-driven biocatalysis is the relatively short enzyme lifetime under plasma-operating conditions. This challenge could be overcome by immobilizing the enzyme on inert carrier materials. Here, we tested whether immobilization is suited to protect proteins from inactivation by plasma. To this end, using a dielectric barrier discharge device (PlasmaDerm), plasma stability was tested for five enzymes immobilized on ten different carrier materials. A comparative analysis of the treatment times needed to reduce enzyme activity of immobilized and free enzyme by 30% showed a maximum increase by a factor of 44. Covalent immobilization on a partly hydrophobic carrier surface proved most effective. We conclude from the study, that immobilization universally protects enzymes under plasma-operating conditions, paving the way for new emerging applications.

description: We consider the problem of finding optimal strategies that maximize the average growth-rate of multiplicative stochastic processes. For a geometric Brownian motion the problem is solved through the so-called Kelly criterion, according to which the optimal growth rate is achieved by investing a constant given fraction of resources at any step of the dynamics. We generalize these finding to the case of dynamical equations with finite carrying capacity, which can find applications in biology, mathematical ecology, and finance. We formulate the problem in terms of a stochastic process with multiplicative noise and a non-linear drift term that is determined by the specific functional form of carrying capacity. We solve the stochastic equation for two classes of carrying capacity functions (power laws and logarithmic), and in both cases compute optimal trajectories of the control parameter. We further test the validity of our analytical results using numerical simulations.

description: Recent works have related the bulk first law of black hole mechanics to the first law of entanglement in a dual CFT. These are first order relations, and receive corrections for finite changes. In particular, the latter is naively expected to be accurate only for small changes in the quantum state. But when Newton's constant is small relative to the AdS scale, the former holds to good approximation even for classical perturbations that contain many quanta. This suggests that -- for appropriate states -- corrections to the first law of entanglement are suppressed by powers of $N$ in CFTs whose correlators satisfy 't Hooft large-$N$ power counting. We take first steps toward verifying that this is so by studying the large-$N$ structure of the entropy of spatial regions for a class of CFT states motivated by those created from the vacuum by acting with real-time single-trace sources. We show that $1/N$ counting matches bulk predictions, though we require the effect of the source on the modular hamiltonian to be non-singular. The magnitude of our sources is $εN$ with $ε$ fixed-but-small as $N\rightarrow \infty$. Our results also provide a perturbative derivation -- without relying on the replica trick -- of the subleading Faulkner-Lewkowycz-Maldacena correction to the Ryu-Takayagi and Hubeny-Rangamani-Takayanagi conjectures at all orders in $1/N$.

description: The crystal size distribution in polynuclear growth is numerically studied using a coupled map lattice model. The width of the size distribution depends on c/D, where c is the growth rate at interface sites and $D$ is the diffusion constant. When c/D is sufficiently small, the width W increases linearly with c/D and saturates at large c/D. Monodisperse square and cubic crystals are obtained respectively on square and cubic lattices when c/D is sufficiently small for a small kinetic parameter b. The linear dependence of W on c/D in a parameter range of small c/D is explained by the eigenfunction for the first eigenvalue in a two-dimensional model and a mean-field model. For the mean-field model, the slope of the linear dependence is evaluated theoretically.

description: We combine the ideas of intensity interferometry, polarization optics and Bell's measurement into an experimental proposal which is hosted in a $ν\,$=$\,2$ quantum Hall (QH) edge state. Our interferometer comprises of a single gate, that separates the spin resolved edge states of $ν$\,=\,$2$ state. An analog of waveplate (from polarization optics) is realized by exposing the individual edges to nano-magnets over a finite length which facilitates coherent manipulation of the electron spin on the edge. We show that the in-plane rotation of magnetization direction of the nano-magnets results in oscillations observed solely in the cross-correlated noise which arises from two particle interference. Through numerical simulations we demonstrate that our proposal is well within the reach of recent experimental developments of spin manipulations on the QH edge.

description: Reflection positivity originates from one of the Osterwalder-Schrader axioms for constructive quantum field theory. It serves as a bridge between euclidean and relativistic quantum field theory. In mathematics, more specifically, in representation theory, it is related to the Cartan duality of symmetric Lie groups (Lie groups with an involution) and results in a transformation of a unitary representation of a symmetric Lie group to a unitary representation of its Cartan dual. In this article we continue our investigation of representation theoretic aspects of reflection positivity by discussing reflection positive Markov processes indexed by Lie groups, measures on path spaces, and invariant gaussian measures in spaces of distribution vectors. This provides new constructions of reflection positive unitary representations.

description: Abstract Marriages, Divorces and Remarriages have become common practices in today’s world. Despite advances in standard of living of the population, the condition of widows and divorced women remains lamentable in our society. Basic human rights of this vulnerable section of society have long been rejected. Previous research in this field has highlighted widow & divorced women as ‘At risk population’. Mental health issues and financial adversities post-divorce or death of spouses have compromised their life expectancies. This study is aimed at reevaluating the claims of previous research in this field, with special focus on severity of the mental health problems among this risk group and coping style used by them.

The distance is only 10.0 Mpc and the main galaxy shows a full ring of star forming knots, 6.1 kpc in diameter surrounding a quiescent disk. The smaller assumed "bullet" galaxy also shows vigorous star formation. The spectacular nature of the object had been overlooked because of its location in the Galactic plane and proximity to a bright star and even though it is the 60$^{\rm th}$ brightest galaxy in the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) HI survey. The overall system has a physical size of $\sim$15 kpc, a total mass of $M_\ast = 6.6\times 10^9$ M$_\odot$ (stars + HI), a metallicity of [O/H]$\sim-0.4$, and a star formation rate of 0.2-0.5 M$_\odot$\,yr$^{-1}$, making it a Magellanic-type system. Collisional ring galaxies therefore extend to much lower galaxy masses than commonly assumed. We derive a space density for such systems of $7 \times 10^{-5}\,\rm Mpc^{-3}$, an order of magnitude higher than previously estimated. This suggests Kathryn's Wheel is the nearest such system. We present discovery images, CTIO 4-m telescope narrow-band follow-up images and spectroscopy for selected emission components. Given its proximity and modest extinction along the line of sight, this spectacular system provides an ideal target for future high spatial resolution studies of such systems and for direct detection of its stellar populations.

description: AbstractPurposeTo compare outcomes of type II endoleak embolization involving embolization of the endoleak nidus only vs embolization of the endoleak nidus and branch vessels in patients treated with endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms.Materials and MethodsTwenty-nine consecutive patients (mean age, 77.9 y; range, 63–88 y) with type II endoleak who underwent embolization from 2004 to 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were divided into 2 groups: embolization of endoleak nidus only (group A) and embolization of endoleak nidus and branch vessels (group B). Mean follow-up intervals were 20.5 months ± 14.7 in group A and 24.3 months ± 18.5 in group B. Outcomes were compared between groups by Mann–Whitney U and Pearson χ2 tests.ResultsMean interval from endovascular aneurysm repair to embolization was 47.6 months ± 42.9, and mean presentation time of endoleak before embolization was 23.1 months ± 25.8. Coils (n = 28) and liquid embolic agents (n = 23) were used for embolization. There were no significant differences in rates of residual endoleak (50% vs 53.8%; P = .96) or sac decrease/stabilization (62.5% vs 61.5%; P = .64). Procedure time and radiation exposure in group B (132.3 min ± 78.1; 232.4 Gy·cm2 ± 130.7) were greater than in group A (63.4 min ± 11.9; 61.5 Gy·cm2 ± 35.5; P < .01). There were no procedure-related complications.ConclusionsEmbolization of the endoleak nidus and branch vessels is not superior to embolization of only the nidus in terms of occlusion of type II endoleak and change in sac size despite requiring longer procedure times and resulting in greater patient radiation exposure.

description: Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to summarize the recent developments in the field of tissue engineering as they relate to multilayer scaffold designs in musculoskeletal regeneration. Methods Clinical and basic research studies that highlight the current knowledge and potential future applications of the multilayer scaffolds in orthopaedic tissue engineering were evaluated and the best evidence collected. Studies were divided into three main categories based on tissue types and interfaces for which multilayer scaffolds were used to regenerate: bone, osteochondral junction and tendon-to-bone interfaces. Results In vitro and in vivo studies indicate that the use of stratified scaffolds composed of multiple layers with distinct compositions for regeneration of distinct tissue types within the same scaffold and anatomic location is feasible. This emerging tissue engineering approach has potential applications in regeneration of bone defects, osteochondral lesions and tendon-to-bone interfaces with successful basic research findings that encourage clinical applications. Conclusions Present data supporting the advantages of the use of multilayer scaffolds as an emerging strategy in musculoskeletal tissue engineering are promising, however, still limited. Positive impacts of the use of next generation scaffolds in orthopaedic tissue engineering can be expected in terms of decreasing the invasiveness of current grafting techniques used for reconstruction of bone and osteochondral defects, and tendon-to-bone interfaces in near future.
Evolution of a Binary Black Hole with a Retrograde Circumbinary Accretion Disk

description: We consider the evolution of a supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) surrounded by a retrograde accretion disk. Assuming the disk is exactly in the binary plane and transfers energy and angular momentum to the binary via direct gas accretion, we calculate the time evolution of the binary's semi-major axis $a$ and eccentricity $e$. Because the gas is predominantly transferred when the binary is at apocenter, we find the eccentricity grows rapidly while maintaining constant $a(1+e)$. After accreting only a fraction of the secondary's mass, the eccentricity grows to nearly unity; from then on, gravitational wave emission dominates the evolution, preserving constant $a(1-e)$. The high-eccentricity waveforms redistribute the peak gravitational wave power from the nHz to $μ$Hz bands, substantially affecting the signal that might be detected with pulsar timing arrays. We also estimate the torque coupling binaries of arbitrary eccentricity with obliquely aligned circumbinary disks. If the outer edge of the disk is not an extremely large multiple of the binary separation, retrograde accretion can drive the binary into the gravitational wave-dominated state before these torques align the binary with the angular momentum of the mass supply.

description: Abstract Two-dimensional contingency tables or co-occurrence matrices arise frequently in various important applications such as text analysis and web-log mining. As a fundamental research topic, co-clustering aims to generate a meaningful partition of the contingency table to reveal hidden relationships between rows and columns. Traditional co-clustering algorithms usually produce a predefined number of flat partition of both rows and columns, which do not reveal relationship among clusters. To address this limitation, hierarchical co-clustering algorithms have attracted a lot of research interests recently. Although successful in various applications, the existing hierarchical co-clustering algorithms are usually based on certain heuristics and do not have solid theoretical background. In this paper, we present a new co-clustering algorithm, HICC, with solid theoretical background. It simultaneously constructs a hierarchical structure of both row and column clusters, which retains sufficient mutual information between rows and columns of the contingency table. An efficient and effective greedy algorithm is developed, which grows a co-cluster hierarchy by successively performing row-wise or column-wise splits that lead to the maximal mutual information gain. Extensive experiments on both synthetic and real datasets demonstrate that our algorithm can reveal essential relationships of row (and column) clusters and has better clustering precision than existing algorithms. Moreover, the experiments on real dataset show that HICC can effectively reveal hidden relationships between rows and columns in the contingency table.
