description: The recurrence of a previously documented eclipse of a solar-like pre--main-sequence star in the young cluster IC 348 has been observed. The recurrence interval is 4.7 $\pm 0.1$ yr and portions of 4 cycles have now been seen. The duration of each eclipse is at least 3.5 years, or $\sim 75$% of a cycle, verifying that this is not an eclipse by a stellar companion. The light curve is generally symmetric and approximately flat-bottomed. Brightness at maximum and minimum have been rather stable over the years but the light curve is not perfectly repetitive or smooth and small variations exist at all phases. We confirm that the star is redder when fainter. Models are discussed and it is proposed that this could be a system similar to KH 15D in NGC 2264. Specifically, it may be an eccentric binary in which a portion of the orbit of one member is currently occulted during some binary phases by a circumbinary disk. The star deserves sustained observational attention for what it may reveal about the circumstellar environment of low-mass stars of planet-forming age.

description: We develop, for an l-adic etale sheaf on a complete trait of characteristic p>0, the notion of characteristic variety. Our approach, inspired by the microlocal analysis of Kashiwara and Schapira, is a complement to our ramification theory for local fields with general residue fields. We formulate the main property that should be satisfied by the characteristic variety (the isogeny conjecture), and prove it for rank one sheaves unconditionally on the trait, or unconditionally on the sheaf if the residue field of the trait is perfect.

description: We present extensive Monte Carlo simulations for the thermodynamic and structural properties of a planar bilayer of dipolar hard spheres for a wide range of densities, dipole moments and layer separations. Expressions for the stress and pressure tensors of the bilayer system are derived. For all thermodynamic states considered the interlayer energy is shown to be attractive and much smaller than the intralayer contribution to the energy. It vanishes at layer separations of the order of two hard sphere diameters. The normal pressure is negative and decays as a function of layer separation $h$ as $-1/h^5$. Intralayer and interlayer pair distribution functions and angular correlation functions are presented. Despite the weak interlayer energy strong positional and orientational correlations exist between particles in the two layers.

description: The role of spin degrees of freedom in high-energy hadron-hadron and lepton-hadron scattering is reviewed with emphasis on the dominant role of soft, diffractive, non-perturbative effects. Explicit models based on analyticity and Regge-pole theory, including the pomeron trajectory (gluon exchange in the $t$ channel) are discussed. We argue that there is a single, universal pomeron in Nature, manifest as relatively "soft" or "hard", depending on the kinematics considered. Regge trajectories are non-linear, complex functions, predicting a finite number of resonances. Explicit models and fits are presented that may be used in recovering generalized parton distributions from deeply virtual Compton scattering and electoproduction of vector mesons.

Odonate fauna of Val Grande National Park (Insecta: Odonata)

Publisher: name: Fragmenta Entomologica
Year: 2021

description: The results of a survey aimed at describing the Odonate fauna of Val Grande National Park are presented, which was carried out in the framework of the project “Animal Biodiversity Monitoring in Alpine Habitat”. Relevant literature was examined and data collected in- tensively in summer 2016 and extensively in the period 2014-2019. Prior to this research specific knowledge on dragonfly and damselfly presence and distribution accounted for 6 species for the study area, which were recorded near the northern border but outside the park. The first Odonate checklist here provided is based on 188 records (1173 individuals), of which 137 are recent and unpublished. Compre- hensively 25 species were recorded (14 breeding), which represent 26% of the Italian fauna, 36% of Piedmont and 58% of the province of Verbano Cusio Ossola, whereas three species were not confirmed; 10 species were found inside the park (4 breeding). Odonate diversity was remarkable, thanks to Val Grande geographical position between the Alps and the Insubric region and to high rainfall coupled with a complex orography. The study area hosts populations of the boreo-alpine species Somatochlora alpestris and Sympetrum danae, which are scattered and isolated in Italian Alps, and of the endemic European Cordulegaster bidentata; it hosts lotic taxa which are concentrat- ed in SW Europe where they are under pressure because of droughts and exploitation of freshwater. Conservation and status issues of observed dragonflies and damselflies are discussed in the light of the growing interest gained by odonates as ecological indicators. The study proposes to use this knowledge to guide the future expansions of the protected area.

description: Deep Learning is emerging as an effective technique to detect sophisticated cyber-attacks targeting Industrial Control Systems (ICSs). The conventional approach to detection in literature is to learn the "normal" behaviour of the system, to be then able to label noteworthy deviations from it as anomalies. However, during operations, ICSs inevitably and continuously evolve their behaviour, due to e.g., replacement of devices, workflow modifications, or other reasons. As a consequence, the accuracy of the anomaly detection process may be dramatically affected with a considerable amount of false alarms being generated. This paper presents DAICS, a novel deep learning framework with a modular design to fit in large ICSs. The key component of the framework is a 2-branch neural network that learns the changes in the ICS behaviour with a small number of data samples and a few gradient updates. This is supported by an automatic tuning mechanism of the detection threshold that takes into account the changes in the prediction error under normal operating conditions. In this regard, no specialised human intervention is needed to update the other parameters of the system. DAICS has been evaluated using publicly available datasets and shows an increased detection rate and accuracy compared to state of the art approaches, as well as higher robustness to additive noise.

Application of push-relabel and heuristics to open pit mines
Creators: name: Sahni, Jaspreet
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The pit limit problem is crucial to mine planning. The use of computer models to design ultimate open pit limits is becoming increasingly popular. One solution method adopted is to transform the pit limit problem to a maximum flow network. A popular maximum flow technique is push relabel. The purpose of this thesis is twofold. The first is to check if push relabel algorithm performs better than other MF algorithms on real, rather than randomly generated data (as in the past). The second is to develop and test heuristics that can take advantage of the characteristics of the open pit mine network structure to further renhance the push relabel routine.

The usage of Stromgren photometry in studies of Local Group Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies - Application to Draco: a new catalogue of Draco members and a study of the metallicity distribution function and radial gradients

description: In this paper we demonstrate how Stromgren uvby photometry can be efficiently used to: 1. Identify red giant branch stars that are members in a dwarf spheroidal galaxy. 2. Derive age-independent metallicities for the same stars and quantify the associated errors. Stromgren uvby photometry in a 11 x 22 arcmin field centered on the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy was obtained using the Isaac Newton Telescope on La Palma. Members of the Draco dSph galaxy were identified using the surface gravity sensitive c_1 index which discriminates between red giant and dwarf stars. Thus enabling us to distinguish the (red giant branch) members of the dwarf spheroidal galaxy from the foreground dwarf stars in our galaxy. The method is evaluated through a comparison of our membership list with membership classifications in the literature based on radial velocities and proper motions. The metallicity sensitive m_1 index was used to derive individual and age-independent metallicities for the members of the Draco dSph galaxy. The derived metallicities are compared to studies based on high resolution spectroscopy and the agreement is found to be very good. We present metallicities for 169 members of the red giant branch in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy (the largest sample to date). The metallicity distribution function for the Draco dSph galaxy shows a mean [Fe/H] = -1.74 dex with a spread of 0.24 dex. The correlation between metallicity and colour for the stars on the red giant branch is consistent with a dominant old, and coeval population. There is a possible spatial population gradient over the field with the most metal-rich stars being more centrally concentrated than the metal-poor stars.

description: Browser fingerprinting consists into collecting attributes from a web browser. Hundreds of attributes have been discovered through the years. Each one of them provides a way to distinguish browsers, but also comes with a usability cost (e.g., additional collection time). In this work, we propose FPSelect, an attribute selection framework allowing verifiers to tune their browser fingerprinting probes for web authentication. We formalize the problem as searching for the attribute set that satisfies a security requirement and minimizes the usability cost. The security is measured as the proportion of impersonated users given a fingerprinting probe, a user population, and an attacker that knows the exact fingerprint distribution among the user population. The usability is quantified by the collection time of browser fingerprints, their size, and their instability. We compare our framework with common baselines, based on a real-life fingerprint dataset, and find out that in our experimental settings, our framework selects attribute sets of lower usability cost. Compared to the baselines, the attribute sets found by FPSelect generate fingerprints that are up to 97 times smaller, are collected up to 3,361 times faster, and with up to 7.2 times less changing attributes between two observations, on average.

description: In an attempt to provide a clearer understanding of the impressive increase in T_c under pressure in elemental Li, linear response calculation of the phonon dispersion curves, electron-phonon matrix elements, phonon linewidths and mode lambda's have been carried out on a finer mesh (24^3 in the Brillouin zone) than done previously, for the volume corresponding to 20 GPa pressure. The result illustrates the great need for a fine mesh (even finer than this) for converged results of lambda and the spectral function alpha^2 F. Although the initial pressure-induced transverse T_1 phonon instability (in harmonic approximation) near the symmetry point K has dominated attention, the current results show that the high value of T_c gets strong contributions from elsewhere in the zone, particularly from the longitudinal mode along (100).

description: Current critical systems commonly use a lot of floating-point computations, and thus the testing or static analysis of programs containing floating-point operators has become a priority. However, correctly defining the semantics of common implementations of floating-point is tricky, because semantics may change with many factors beyond source-code level, such as choices made by compilers. We here give concrete examples of problems that can appear and solutions to implement in analysis software.

description: The Mock Data Challenges (MLDCs) have the dual purpose of fostering the development of LISA data-analysis tools and capabilities and of demonstrating the technical readiness already achieved by the gravitational-wave community in distilling a rich science payoff from the LISA data. The first round of MLDCs has just been completed and the second-round data sets are being released shortly after this workshop. The second-round data sets contain radiation from an entire Galactic population of stellar-mass binary systems, from massive--black-hole binaries, and from extreme--mass-ratio inspirals. These data sets are designed to capture much of the complexity that is expected in the actual LISA data, and should provide a fairly realistic setting to test advanced data-analysis techniques, and in particular the global aspect of the analysis. Here we describe the second round of MLDCs and provide details about its implementation.

description: Tunneling between a photo-excited p-type silicon tip and a gold surface is studied as a function of tip bias, tip/sample distance and light intensity. In order to extend the range of application of future spin injection experiments, the measurements are carried out under nitrogen gas at room temperature. It is found that while tunneling of valence band electrons is described by a standard process between the semiconductor valence band and the metal, the tunneling of photoelectrons obeys a Fowler-Nordheim-like process directly from the conduction band. In the latter case, the bias dependence of the photocurrent as a function of distance is in agreement with theoretical predictions which include image charge effects. Quantitative analysis of the bias dependence of the dark and photocurrent spectra gives reasonable values for the distance, and for the tip and metal work functions. For small distances image charge effects induce a vanishing of the barrier and the bias dependence of the photocurrent is exponential. In common with many works on field emission, fluctuations in the tunneling currents are observed. These are mainly attributed to changes in the prefactor for the tunneling photocurrent, which we suggest is caused by an electric-field-induced modification of the thickness of the natural oxide layer covering the tip apex.

description: The meaning and evolution of the notion of "temperature" (which is a key concept for the condensed and gaseous matter theories) are addressed from the different points of view. The concept of temperature turns out to be much more fundamental than it is conventionally thought. In particular, the temperature may be introduced for the systems built of "small" number of particles and particles in rest. The Kelvin temperature scale may be introduced into the quantum and relativistic physics due to the fact, that the efficiency of the quantum and relativistic Carnot cycles coincides with that of the classical one. The relation of the temperature to the metrics of the configurational space describing the behavior of the system built from non-interacting particles is demonstrated. The Landauer principle asserts that the temperature of the system is the only physical value defining the energy cost of isothermal erasing of the single bit of information. The role of the temperature the cosmic microwave background in modern cosmology is discussed.

Lord devlin on the politics of enforcing morality
Creators: name: Simpson, Douglas B
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The purpose of this thesis is to explore Lord Devlin's approach to the enforcement of morals. The morals in question are those which are widely recognized as being held in common by particular groups of people and constitutes the morality of the society to which they belong. The enforcement is that coercion which society is able to bring to bear upon the individual, above and beyond that which inheres naturally in a social morality. Lord Devlin argues that the enforcement of this morality is not in any way dependent upon a moral appraisal of the morality itself: a consideration of its moral fitness for enforcement. Such considerations are rejected by Devlin as being an unacceptable manner of governing the enforcement of a society's morality. His critics, arguing the opposite, have attempted to show that, for various reasons, it is not acceptable for government to defer in such an uncritical fashion to the morality it is attempting to enforce. However, Devlin's critics tend to exaggerate and misinterpret the principle which underlies his approach to the enforcement of morals. They falsely assume that Devlin sees value in nothing other than the enforcement of a society's morality. In reality, Devlin believes that many values may need to be balanced against this one. This is the essence of a practical or political approach to the enforcement of morals, and it can only succeed if society is entitled to exclude from its politics certain considerations: those which deny that the enforcement of a society's morality has no value independent of the other values with which it competes. Devlin's focus on the politics of the enforcement of morality has certain similarities with the more contemporary concern of some with moral neutrality in politics.

description: Localized vectorial modes, with equal frequencies and mutually orthogonal polarizations, are investigated both analytically and experimentally in a one-dimensional photonic lattice with saturable nonlinearity. It is shown that these modes may span over many lattice elements and that energy transfer among the two components is both phase and intensity dependent. The transverse electrically polarized mode exhibits a single-hump structure and spreads in cascades in saturation, while the transverse magnetically polarized mode exhibits splitting into a two-hump structure. Experimentally such discrete vector solitons are observed in lithium niobate lattices for both coherent and mutually incoherent excitations.

description: We present Gemini Multiobject Spectrograph integral field spectroscopy of the extended emission-line region associated with quasar 3C 249.1. The kinematics of the ionized gas measured from the [O III] $λ$5007 line is rather complex and cannot be explained globally by a simple dynamical model, but some clouds can be modeled individually as having locally linear velocity gradients. The temperatures of the ionized gas appear uniform (varying from ~12000 to 15000 K), while the densities vary from a few tens to a few hundreds cm^{-3}. The emission mechanism of all of the emission clouds, as indicated by the line-ratio diagnostics, is consistent both with "shock + precursor" and pure photoionization models. The total mass of the ionized gas is on the order of 10^9 M_Sun. We estimate the bulk kinetic energy and momentum of the extended emission-line region of 2.5*10^{57} ergs and 10^{50} dyne s, and a dynamical timescale of ~10 Myr. By comparing the injection rates of kinetic energy and momentum of different galactic wind models with the observation, we argue that the emission-line clouds are most likely a direct result from the feedback of the quasar. We also discuss the nature of the extended X-ray emission surrounding the quasar.

description: We present new BVR band photometric light curves of BO Aries obtained in 2020 and combined them with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) light curves. We obtained times of minima based on Gaussian and Cauchy distributions and then applied the Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) method to measure the amount of uncertainty from our CCD photometry and TESS data. A new ephemeris of the binary system was computed employing 204 times of minimum. The light curves were analyzed using the Wilson-Devinney binary code combined with the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. For this light curve solution, we considered a dark spot on the primary component. We conclude that this binary is an A-type system with a mass ratio of q=0.2074+-0.0001, an orbital inclination of i=82.18+-0.02 deg, and a fillout factor of f=75.7+-0.8%. Our results for the a(Rsun) and q parameters are consistent with the results of the Xu-Dong Zhang and Sheng-Bang Qian (2020) model. The absolute parameters of the two components were calculated and the distance estimate of the binary system was found to be 142+-9 pc.

description: We report the results of a submillimetre continuum emission survey targeted toward 78 star formation regions, 72 of which are devoid of methanol maser and UC HII regions, identified in the SEST/SIMBA millimetre continuum survey of Hill et al. (2005). At least 45 per cent of the latter sources, dubbed `mm-only', detected in this survey are also devoid of mid infrared MSX, emission. The 450 and 850micron, continuum emission was mapped using the Submillimetre Common User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) instrument on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT). Emission is detected toward 97 per cent of the 78 sources targeted as well as towards 28 other SIMBA sources lying in the SCUBA fields. We concatenate the results from four (sub)millimetre continuum surveys of massive star formation [Walsh et al. (2003), Hill et al. (2005), Thompson et al. (2006); as well as this work], together with the Galactic Plane map of Pierce-Price et al. (2000) in order to determine the dust grain emissivity index $β$ for each of the sources in the SIMBA source list. We examine the value of $β$ with respect to temperature, as well as for the source classes identified in the SIMBA survey, for variation of this index. Our results indicate that $β$ is typically 2, which is consistent with previous determinations in the literature, but for a considerably larger sample than previous work.

description: We study a particular class of rationally connected manifolds, $X\subset \p^N$, such that two general points $x,x' \in X$ may be joined by a conic contained in $X$. We prove that these manifolds are Fano, with $b_2\leq 2$. Moreover, a precise classification is obtained for $b_2=2$. Complete intersections of high dimension with respect to their multi-degree provide examples for the case $b_2=1$. The proof of the classification result uses a general characterization of rationality, in terms of suitable covering families of rational curves.

Symmetry restriction and its application to gravity

description: In the Hamiltonian formulation, it is not a priori clear whether a symmetric configuration will keep its symmetry during evolution. In this paper, we give precise requirements of when this is the case and propose a symmetry restriction to the phase space of the symmetric variables. This can often ease computation, especially when transcending from the infinite dimensional phase space of a field theory to a possibly finite dimensional subspace. We will demonstrate this in the case of gravity. A prominent example is the restriction of full Hamiltonian general relativity to the cosmological configurations of Robertson-Walker type. We will demonstrate our procedure in this setting and extend it to examples which appear useful in certain approaches to quantum gravity.

description: In this paper, we study the Hessian equation with infinite Dirichlet (blow-up) boundary value conditions. Using radial functions and techniques of ordinary differential inequality, we construct various barrier functions (super-solution and sub-solution). Existence and non-existence theorems are proved by those barriers, maximum principle and theory of viscous solutions. Furthermore, generic boundary blow-up rates for the solutions are derived.

Naturalistic conceptions of moral maturity
Creators: name: Pitts, Russell C.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: By examining folk conceptions of moral maturity, this project sought a more comprehensive understanding of moral excellence than Kohlberg's emphasis on principled justice reasoning. Study 1 and 2 involved different samples of 120 adults (17- 25, 35-55, and 65+ years). Study 3 involved a sample of 180 undergraduates. In Study 1, a free-listing procedure was used to generate the attributes of a "highly moral person," as well as those for two related person-concepts. In Study 2, a rating procedure for these attributes was used to generate a prototype of a highly moral person. In Study 3, a similarity-sorting task was used to uncover laypeople's implicit typology of moral maturity. The findings suggest that naturalistic notions of moral excellence not only contain themes of principled reasoning, but also reference aspects of moral character and virtue that enlarge our understanding of the psychological functioning of the mature moral agent.
An explanation about the flat radio spectrum for Mrk 421

description: It is well known that the flat radio spectrum is a common property in the spectral energy distribution of blazars. Although the one-zone leptonic models are generally successful in explaining the multi-wave band emission, they are problematic in reproducing the radio spectrum. In the study of Mrk 421, one-zone models suggest that in order to avoid overproducing the radio flux, the minimum electron Lorentz factor should be larger than a few hundred at least, even considering the synchrotron self-absorption effect. This result suggests that the model predicted spectral index in the radio band of Mrk 421 should be -1/3. On the basis of this result, by assuming there is a neglected region that will also contribute the radio emission and its electron energy index is naturally originate from the simplest first-order Fermi acceleration mechanism, we can get a superimposed flat radio spectrum. In this paper, a two-zone model is proposed to reproduce the quiescent state spectral energy distribution of Mrk 421. In addition to taking into account the emission from a conventional radiation zone, we further consider the emission from the acceleration zone in which particles are accelerated at a shock front. With the present model, our fitting result suggests that the low frequency flat radio spectrum of Mrk 421 might be explained as a superposition of the synchrotron emission from acceleration zone and radiation zone.
