Diversifying the Legal Profession
Creators: name: Tes, Paulina
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 48
subject: Law and legal studies

description: Black people find themselves severely overrepresented in rates of arrests in the criminal justice system while underrepresented in the legal profession compared to their white counterparts.
The myriad of social, economic, environmental, and political factors negatively impact the lives of Black people and subject them to systemic racism. Brandi Blesset, professor at Rutgers University and Vanessa Littleton, professor at California State University, write in their article, “Examining the Impact of Institutional Racism in Black Residentially Segregated Communities,” for the Ralph Bunche Journal of Public Affairs that these factors result in diminished educational attainment, disparaging health outcomes, limited employment opportunities, and stifled political participation for the Black residents within low-income and predominantly Black communities.[1] These disparities prevent the needed infrastructure to prevent illegal activity leading to arrests and act as a barrier to Black students from graduating schools and working towards being the desperately needed representation.
Because of the inherent privilege their race confers them, White lawyers are virtually unable to fully understand and represent a community that has to endure systems of racism that are embedded in their daily lives. Consequently, it becomes more challenging for Black defendants to receive a fair trial.
Systems of oppression and discrimination have allowed for the criminal justice system to disproportionally see White people in positions of power, while overrepresenting Black communities on the receiving end of the system. Considering that rehabilitative qualities are integral to the criminal justice system, White prosecutors should not be fixated on their conviction rate[2], but rather aim to uphold justice. Current societal factors that allow for inequality in Black communities and encourage White people to dominate the legal field make it difficult to move our society in the right direction, perpetuating an already prevailing systemic racism.
However, the movement towards diversifying the legal profession goes beyond putting factors in place to help Black people. For example, Black people, although suffering the most from these discrepancies, are not the only group in need of more representation. An additional problem of the legal profession rests on the fact that it a male-dominated industry, with women only making up 37% of all licenced attorneys in 2021.
There is still much work to be done before achieving a society that actually practices justice for all, but the first step is to identify and combat the lack of representation for vulnerable communities.
A Technical Approach of Image Segmentation in ENVI GIS to Identify Thematic Clusters for Visualization of Urban Transformations (Технический подход к сегментации изображений в ГИС ENVI для определения тематических кластеров при визуализации динамики городских ландшафтов)

subject: FOS: Environmental engineering

description: The technical study objective is to apply segmentation techniques for clustering image into thematic areas. The data used in this research included Landsat TM and ETM+ multi-band imagery covering chosen research area. The image processing was performed using supervised classification in GIS software. The technical aim of the research is image classification which consists in automatic assignation of all pixels on an image into land cover classes that are typical for this study area. The logical algorithmic approach of clustering segmentation was applied to identify clusters for thematic mapping of land cover types in the selected study area. While using data for spatial modelling and mapping, specific study objectives should always be evaluated, hence the model may have certain limitations and dependancies on the scale and resolution

Subjects: subject: 80604 Database Management
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper focuses on the development of the structuring geospatial data into a database and its use by their students in modules of environmental disciplines. The technique is effective for both undergraduate and graduate students of the environmental disciplines of universities. It can be used for writing standard research papers, dissertations and short papers of the environmental topics. The system approach of the environmental analysis is a core method in courses of ecology. It includes geo-ecological modeling using GIS, which enables to study interrelationships among the components within the ecosystems. The environmental features are based on their importance in the relationship. As demonstrated in this paper, the systematic approach is based on the organized complex database highlighting the unity of the ecosystem made of different yet interrelated parts, which helps achieving environmental knowledge and skills of students.

description: Cat states are systems in a superposition of macroscopically distinguishable states; this superposition can be of either classically or quantum distinct state, regardless of the number of particles or modes involved. Here, we constructed an experimental model that simulates an optical cat state by engineering the classical orbital angular momentum of light, referred to here as an analogous cat state (a-CS). In our scheme, the behaviors of the a-CS in position space show many similarities to the quantum version of the optical cat state in phase space, for example, movement, rotation, and interference. Experimentally, the a-CS, which has two spatially localized Gaussian intensity lobes, can be evolved from "kitten" to "cat" by engineering the acquired phase hologram. Additionally, we simulated the "decoherence" of the a-CS influenced by atmospheric turbulence. The a-CS provides a reliable tool for visualizing and studying the behaviors of quantum cat states in phase space.

description: Research and development work conducted both at the Census Bureau and throughout the field has demonstrated the value of a high-quality panel survey to improve representativeness and significantly reduce burden on households in the interests of collecting high-frequency data. The Census Bureau launched initial recruitment of the Census Household Panel (CHP) in September of 2023. The initial sample was carefully selected and recruited by the Census Bureau to reflect the diversity of our nation’s population. Panel participants were asked to respond to an initial “baseline” questionnaire as well as various monthly survey requests, referred to as “topical collections.” This paper outlines the CHP sample design, covering the stratification used in selecting the initial sample. We used information from the Census Bureau’s demographic frame, a person-level frame based on administrative records and the Census Bureau’s Planning Database to stratify the housing units on the Master Address File.

 

This paper also discusses the CHP sample size targets, “baseline” and “topical” weights and initial demographic distributions from the initial sample respondents and first few “topical” collections.

description: The analysis of $90^{\circ}$ vortex-vortex scattering is extended to $\fracπ{n}$ scattering in all head-on collisions of $n$ vortices in the Abelian Higgs model. A Cauchy problem with initial data that describe the scattering of $n$ vortices is formulated. It is shown that this Cauchy problem has a unique global finite-energy solution. The symmetry of the solution and the form of the local analytic solution then show that $\fracπ{n}$ scattering is realised.

Entropy Production in Collisions of Relativistic Heavy Ions -- a signal for Quark-Gluon Plasma phase transition?

description: Entropy production in the compression stage of heavy ion collisions is discussed within three distinct macroscopic models (i.e. generalized RHTA, geometrical overlap model and three-fluid hydrodynamics). We find that within these models \sim 80% or more of the experimentally observed final-state entropy is created in the early stage. It is thus likely followed by a nearly isentropic expansion. We employ an equation of state with a first-order phase transition. For low net baryon density, the entropy density exhibits a jump at the phase boundary. However, the excitation function of the specific entropy per net baryon, S/A, does not reflect this jump. This is due to the fact that for final states (of the compression) in the mixed phase, the baryon density ρ_B increases with \sqrt{s}, but not the temperature T. Calculations within the three-fluid model show that a large fraction of the entropy is produced by nuclear shockwaves in the projectile and target. With increasing beam energy, this fraction of S/A decreases. At \sqrt{s}=20 AGeV it is on the order of the entropy of the newly produced particles around midrapidity. Hadron ratios are calculated for the entropy values produced initially at beam energies from 2 to 200 AGeV.

description: Whenever fields are allowed to propagate in different portions of space-time, the four dimensional theory exhibits an effective violation of the principle of equivalence. We discuss the conditions under which such an effect is relevant for neutrino physics. In the simplest case of compactification on a flat manifold, the effect of gravity is many orders of magnitude too weak and plays no role for solar neutrino oscillation. Instead, it could be important in the study of ultra high-energy neutrinos in cosmic rays. Gravity could also be relevant for lower energy neutrino processes involving bulk sterile states, if the mechanism of compactification is more subtle than that on torii.

description: We study the critical vortex shedding in a strongly interacting fermionic superfluid of $^{6}$Li across the BEC-BCS crossover. By moving an optical obstacle in the sample and directly imaging the vortices after time of flight, the critical velocity $v_{\rm c}$ for vortex shedding is measured as a function of the obstacle travel distance $L$. The observed $v_{\rm c}$ increases with decreasing $L$, where the rate of increase is the highest in the unitary regime. In the deep BEC regime, an empirical dissipation model well captures the dependence of $v_{\rm c}$ on $L$, characterized by a constant value of $η= -\frac{{\rm d}(1/v_{\rm c})}{{\rm d}(1/L)}$. However, as the system is tuned across the resonance, a step increase of $η$ develops about a characteristic distance $L_{\rm c}$ as $L$ is increased, where $L_{\rm c}$ is comparable to the obstacle size. This bimodal behavior is strengthened as the system is tuned towards the BCS regime. We attribute this evolution of $v_{\rm c}$ to the participation of pair breaking in the vortex shedding dynamics of a fermionic superfluid.

description: We evaluate the threshold matrix-element for the reaction $pp \to ppπ^0$ in a fully relativistic Feynman diagrammatic approach. We employ a simple effective range approximation to take care of the S-wave $pp$ final-state interaction. The experimental value for the threshold amplitude ${\cal A} = (2.7 - i 0.3)$ fm$^4$ can be reproduced by contributions from tree level chiral (long-range) pion exchange and short-range effects related to vector meson exchanges, with $ω$ exchange giving the largest individual contribution. Pion loop effects appear to be small. We stress that the commonly used heavy baryon formalism is not applicable in the NN-system above the pion production threshold due to the large external momentum, $|\vec p | \simeq \sqrt {Mm_π}$, with $M$ and $m_π$ the nucleon and the pion mass, respectively. We furthermore investigate the reaction $pp\to p n π^+$ near threshold within the same approach. We extract from the data the triplet threshold amplitude as ${\cal B}= (2.8 -i 1.5)$ fm$^4$. Its real part can be well understood from (relativistic) tree level meson-exchange diagrams. In addition, we investigate the process $pp \to pp η$ near threshold. We use a simple factorization ansatz for the $ppη$ final-state interaction and extract from the data the modulus of the threshold amplitude, $|{\cal C}| = 1.32 $fm$^4$. With $g_{ηN}=5.3$, this value can be reproduced by (relativistic) tree level meson-exchange diagrams and $η$-rescattering, whose strength is fixed by the $ηN$ scattering length. We also comment on the recent near threshold data for $η'$-production.

description: In this work, di- and tri-substituted thiourea derivatives have been synthesized via a one-pot, three-component reaction from carbon disulfide and aliphatic or aromatic amines using choline chloride-urea deep eutectic solvent as a catalyst in water. Both cyclic and acyclic thiourea derivatives with two or three substituents were synthesized successfully. The reactions were done at 25–100°C, using 5–20 mol% catalyst, in 3–5 h and the GC-Mass yields were between 60% and 95%. All products were characterized using FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, GC-MS and melting point analyses. The results showed that both water and the DES have important effects on the yield and the rate of this reaction and both of them are necessary to obtain higher yields in less time. The extra experiment, which was designed to study the mechanism of the reaction, showed that an isothiocyanate intermediate was formed in the reaction. Finally, the results showed that by the increase of the amine's nucleophilicity, the reaction occurs faster and gives higher yield.

FAA Airplane Seat Sizing Requirements Stuck Down by United States Court of Appeals
Creators: name: Fitzpatrick, Stephen
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 48
subject: Law and legal studies

description: The petitioned writ of mandamus was first argued on September 12, 2022. The petitioners, argued by Michael T. Kirkpatrick, represented the American non-profit FlyersRights. They are dedicated advocates for the rights and interests of airline passengers, specifically here calling for the FAA to require minimum seating sizing requirements. Their basis of argument focused on the necessity of safety for passengers, a right infringed by seats that slow down evacuation times and increases the likelihood of blood clots[1].
This is not the first time FlyersRights has come after the FAA. On August 26, 2015, the non-profit submitted a rulemaking petition to the FAA to establish minimum seat standards[2]. This was, however, denied by the administration. The FAA cited the adequacy of the emergency evacuation standards and found small seating to hold no effect on emergency evacuation times through their own testing. In response, FlyersRights appealed the FAA’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. On July 28, 2017, the appeals court agreed with FlyersRights, overruling the faulty tests and evidence provided by the FAA[3]. Congress, in response, passed two provisions in the 2018 FAA Reauthorization Act. This was signed into law on October 5, 2018, ordering the FAA to establish minimum seat standards[4]. The FAA was given one year from the date of enactment to establish such minimums. There was no such attempt made by the administration. FlyersRights’ petition was filed October 5, 2022, specifically calling for the FAA to “promulgate a regulation mandating minimum seat size standards for commercial airlines”[5].
On March 3, 2023, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit denied the petition. The conclusion was based on the lack of evidence suggesting necessity regarding the safety of passengers. It was deemed that there was found to be no substantial correlation between seat sizing and evacuation times, nor that of blood clot health risks to passengers. The decision proclaimed that although small seats can certainly cause soreness and stiffness, those conditions are not safety hazards; rather they are commonplace, temporary, and non-life-threatening discomforts[6]
FlyersRights has yet to file a legal response or comment on the decision.

It was deemed that there was found to be no substantial correlation between seat sizing and evacuation times, nor that of blood clot health risks to passengers. The decision proclaimed that although small seats can certainly cause soreness and stiffness, those conditions are not safety hazards; rather they are commonplace, temporary, and non-life-threatening discomforts[6] FlyersRights has yet to file a legal response or comment on the decision.

description: Following recent studies of non-relativistic reductions of the single-nucleon electromagnetic current operator, here we extend the treatment to include meson exchange current operators. We focus on one-particle emission electronuclear reactions. In contrast to the traditional scheme where approximations are made for the transferred momentum, transferred energy and momenta of the initial-state struck nucleons, we treat the problem exactly for the transferred energy and momentum, thus obtaining new current operators which retain important aspects of relativity not taken into account in the traditional non-relativistic reductions. We calculate the matrix elements of our current operators between the Fermi sphere and a particle-hole state for several choices of kinematics. We present a comparison between our results using approximate current operators and those obtained using the fully-relativistic operators, as well as with results obtained using the traditional non-relativistic current operators.

description: The method of differential regularization is applied to calculate explicitly the one-loop effective potential of a bosonized Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model consisting of scalar and pseudoscalar fields. The regularization scheme independent relation for the $σ$ mass sum rule is obtained. This method can be readily applied to extended NJL models with gauge fields.

description: We propose a generalization of the Feynman path integral using squeezed coherent states. We apply this approach to the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates, which gives an effective low energy description that contains both a coherent field and a squeezing field. We derive the classical trajectory of this action, which constitutes a generalization of the Gross Pitaevskii equation, at linear order. We derive the low energy excitations, which provides a description of second sound in weakly interacting condensates as a squeezing oscillation of the order parameter. This interpretation is also supported by a comparison to a numerical c-field method.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ Plan for Migrants
Creators: name: Zelicof, Rachel
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 48
subject: Law and legal studies

description: Background:  Southern states trying to tackle the large influx of migrants coming through the U.S.-Mexico border. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis-R sees this as an opportunity to expel migrants to blue states. Recently, he used Florida state funding to fly migrants from Florida to Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts. He now is facing a class-action lawsuit filed by the migrants. [1] The Details:  The Florida legislature signed a bill that will most likely be signed into law by Governor DeSantis. The law will mandate that migrants be transported to blue states. On January 6, 2023 Governor DeSantis signed an executive order that deployed the National Guard to the Florida Keys to quell the influx of migrants. [2] Implications:  This law will face some legal challenges since it only declares that money in the budget will only be used to help transport migrants out of Texas. Also, the D.C. attorney has launched an investigation to evaluate the ethicalness of the law. Many activists say that DeSantis’ actions are dehumanizing towards migrants. [1] Governor DeSantis has left many immigrants without proper food, water, and shelter. These are basic necessities that every migrant deserves. Conclusions:  Governor DeSantis’ actions show how ill-equipped the U.S. is to manage migrants from the U.S.-Mexican border. Thus, effective legislation is needed and perhaps, President Biden should take a more active role in this situation.

description: Interstellar extinction in ultraviolet is the most severe in comparison with optical and infrared wavebands and a precise determination plays an important role in correctly recovering the ultraviolet brightness and colors of objects. By finding the observed bluest colors at given effective temperature and metallicity range of dwarf stars, stellar intrinsic colors, $C^0_{\rm B,V}$, $C^0_{\rm NUV,B}$, $C^0_{\rm FUV,B}$ and $C^0_{\rm FUV,NUV}$, are derived according to the stellar parameters from the LAMOST spectroscopic survey and photometric results from the $GALEX$ and APASS surveys. With the derived intrinsic colors, the ultraviolet color excesses are calculated for about 25,000 A- and F-type dwarf stars. Analysis of the color excess ratios yields the extinction law related to the $GALEX$ UV bands: $E_{\rm NUV,B}$/$E_{\rm B,V} = 3.77$, $E_{\rm FUV,B}$/$E_{\rm B,V} = 3.39$, $E_{\rm FUV,NUV}$/$E_{\rm B,V} = -0.38$. The results agree very well with previous works in the $NUV$ band and in general with the extinction curve derived by Fitzpatrick (1999) for $R_{\rm V}=3.35$.

Chaotic wave functions and exponential convergence of low-lying energy eigenvalues

description: We suggest that low-lying eigenvalues of realistic quantum many-body hamiltonians, given, as in the nuclear shell model, by large matrices, can be calculated, instead of the full diagonalization, by the diagonalization of small truncated matrices with the exponential extrapolation of the results. We show numerical data confirming this conjecture. We argue that the exponential convergence in an appropriate basis may be a generic feature of complicated ("chaotic") systems where the wave functions are localized in this basis.

description: In this paper we describe in some detail the representation of the topological $CP^1$ model in terms of a matrix integral which we have introduced in a previous article. We first discuss the integrable structure of the $CP^1$ model and show that it is governed by an extension of the 1-dimensional Toda hierarchy. We then introduce a matrix model which reproduces the sum over holomorphic maps from arbitrary Riemann surfaces onto $CP^1$. We compute intersection numbers on the moduli space of curves using geometrical method and show that the results agree with those predicted by the matrix model. We also develop a Landau-Ginzburg (LG) description of the $CP^1$ model using a superpotential $e^X+e^{t_{0,Q}}e^{-X}$ given by the Lax operator of the Toda hierarchy ($X$ is the LG field and $t_{0,Q}$ is the coupling constant of the Kähler class). The form of the superpotential indicates the close connection between $CP^1$ and $N=2$ supersymmetric sine-Gordon theory which was noted some time ago by several authors. We also discuss possible generalizations of our construction to other manifolds and present a LG formulation of the topological $CP^2$ model.

A Simple Generalized Gradient Approximation for the Non-interacting Kinetic Energy Density Functional

description: A simple, novel, non-empirical, constraint-based orbital-free generalized gradient approximation (GGA) non-interacting kinetic energy density functional is presented along with illustrative applications. The innovation is adaptation of constraint-based construction to the essential properties of pseudo-densities from the pseudo-potentials that are essential in plane-wave-basis {\it ab initio} molecular dynamics. This contrasts with constraining to the qualitatively different Kato-cusp-condition densities. The single parameter in the new functional is calibrated by satisfying Pauli potential positivity constraints for pseudo-atom densities. In static lattice tests on simple metals and semiconductors, the new LKT functional outperforms the previous best constraint-based GGA functional, VT84F (Phys.\ Rev.\ B \textbf{88}, 161108(R) (2013)), is generally superior to a recently proposed meta-GGA, is reasonably competitive with parametrized two-point functionals, and is substantially faster.
