description: † Galadi
 SPECIES SCORED: † Galadi speciosus (type species).
GEOLOGICAL PROVENANCE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Boid, Camel Sputum, Judith’s Horizontalis, Microsite, Mike’s Menagerie, Neville’s Garden, Quantum Leap, Upper, and Wayne’s Wok sites (Riversleigh Faunal Zone B), Riversleigh World Heritage Area, Queensland, Australia.
AGE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Riversleigh Faunal Zone B is interpreted to be early Miocene based on biostratigraphy (see above); radiometric dates from Woodhead et al. (2014) are 16.97– 18.53 Mya for Camel Sputum Site and 17.72–18.53 Mya for Neville’s Garden Site, but the other sites lack dates, so we have conservatively assumed the entire span of the early Miocene (Aquitanian to Burdigalian; Cohen et al., 2013 [updated]) for this taxon.
ASSIGNED AGE RANGE: 23.030 –15.970 Mya.
 REMARKS: † Galadi speciosus was described by Travouillon et al. (2010) based on well-preserved craniodental specimens (notably the holotype, QM F23393, an almost perfect cranium and associated partial dentaries) from Riversleigh Faunal zones A and B. Later, a three further species († G. adversus, † G. amplus, and † G. grandis) were described from Riversleigh Faunal zones B and C (Travouillon et al., 2013b), but we did not use these to score character data for this study. Like † Bulungu, † Galadi appears to be craniodentally more plesiomorphic than Recent peramelemorphians, and it has been recovered outside the peramelemorphian crown clade in published phylogenetic analyses (Travouillon et al., 2010, 2013a, 2013b, 2014a, 2105b, 2017, 2019; Gurovich et al., 2014; Chamberlain et al., 2015; Kear et al., 2016; Travouillon and Phillips, 2018). The proportionally brevirostral skull of † G. speciosus also suggests that it may have fed on larger prey items than do modern peramelemorphians (Travouillon et al., 2010).

description: We study the linearized equations describing the propagation of gravitational waves through dust. In the leading order of the WKB approximation, dust behaves as a non-dispersive, non-dissipative medium. Taking advantage of these features, we explore the possibility that a gravitational wave from a distant source gets trapped by the gravitational field of a long filament of galaxies of the kind seen in the large scale structure of the Universe. Such a waveguiding effect may lead to a huge magnification of the radiation from distant sources, thus lowering the sensitivity required for a successful detection of gravitational waves by detectors like VIRGO, LIGO and LISA.

Valuing Vigilance: Confronting the role of Canadian mining companies in resource colonialism in Guatemala, an analysis of the viability of human rights impact assessments in operationalizing the right of Indigenous peoples to free, prior and informed consent (FPIC)

description: This paper calls into question the Canadian government’s complicity in resource colonialism in Guatemala by way of failing to effectively regulate the operations of Canadian mining companies. These companies repeatedly ignore their responsibilities as duty bearers to effectively engage in consultations of good faith with communities in a way that protects, respects and fulfills their right to Free, Prior, and Informed Consent as outlined in various international human rights frameworks. In view of this, the principle purpose of this thesis is to assess the potential viability of human-rights impact assessments (HRIAs) in facilitating the operationalization of FPIC processes and safeguarding the human rights entitlements of local Indigenous rights-holders who stand to be affected by a particular mining project, policy or practice. By juxtaposing the strengths and shortcomings of collaborative and community- based HRIAs, this thesis aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the utility and viability of HRIAs as an authoritative human rights due diligence mechanism. This thesis uses a multidisciplinary methodological approach which relied primarily on qualitative research by way of testimonios provided by mining-affected people in predominately Indigenous communities throughout Guatemala. One of the key findings of this research is that community participation and ownership over the HRIA is critical, as involvement of right- holders helps to ensure that human rights analysis throughout the assessment process reflects and is responsive to the demands of Indigenous Peoples, helping to preserve procedural integrity in contrast to other HRIA processes where communities play a less significant role, ultimately leading to more optimal outcomes with respect to the protection and promotion of human rights.

description: In this article, we investigate zero-modes for a dynamical (rotating-moving) D$p$-brane, coupled to the electromagnetic and tachyonic background fields. This work is done by the boundary state methods, in three cases of bosonic and fermionic boundary states and superstring partition function. By analyzing the obtained zero-modes in either of the cases, interesting results will be obtained. Our findings demonstrate the importance of the zero-mode and its effects on the background fields and the defined internal properties of the described system.

description: Learning feature detection has been largely an unexplored area when compared to handcrafted feature detection. Recent learning formulations use the covariant constraint in their loss function to learn covariant detectors. However, just learning from covariant constraint can lead to detection of unstable features. To impart further, stability detectors are trained to extract pre-determined features obtained by hand-crafted detectors. However, in the process they lose the ability to detect novel features. In an attempt to overcome the above limitations, we propose an improved scheme by incorporating covariant constraints in form of triplets with addition to an affine covariant constraint. We show that using these additional constraints one can learn to detect novel and stable features without using pre-determined features for training. Extensive experiments show our model achieves state-of-the-art performance in repeatability score on the well known datasets such as Vgg-Affine, EF, and Webcam.

description: We study the effect of the antisymmetric tensor field $B_{μν}$ on the large curvature phase of string cosmology. It is well-known that a non-vanishing value of $H=dB$ leads to an anisotropic expansion of the spatial dimensions. Correspondingly, in the string phase of the model, including $α'$ corrections, we find anisotropic fixed points of the evolution, which act as regularizing attractors of the lowest order solutions. The attraction basin can also include isotropic initial conditions for the scale factors. We present explicit examples at order $α'$ for different values of the number of spatial dimensions and for different ansätze for $H$.

Modulational instability of solitary waves in non-degenerate three-wave mixing: The role of phase symmetries

description: We show how the analytical approach of Zakharov and Rubenchik [Sov. Phys. JETP {\bf 38}, 494 (1974)] to modulational instability (MI) of solitary waves in the nonlinear Schröedinger equation (NLS) can be generalised for models with two phase symmetries. MI of three-wave parametric spatial solitons due to group velocity dispersion (GVD) is investigated as a typical example of such models. We reveal a new branch of neck instability, which dominates the usual snake type MI found for normal GVD. The resultant nonlinear evolution is thereby qualitatively different from cases with only a single phase symmetry.

Conceptual Modeling of Inventory Management Processes as a Thinging Machine

description: A control model is typically classified into three forms: conceptual, mathematical and simulation (computer). This paper analyzes a conceptual modeling application with respect to an inventory management system. Today, most organizations utilize computer systems for inventory control that provide protection when interruptions or breakdowns occur within work processes. Modeling the inventory processes is an active area of research that utilizes many diagrammatic techniques, including data flow diagrams, Universal Modeling Language (UML) diagrams and Integration DEFinition (IDEF). We claim that current conceptual modeling frameworks lack uniform notions and have inability to appeal to designers and analysts. We propose modeling an inventory system as an abstract machine, called a Thinging Machine (TM), with five operations: creation, processing, receiving, releasing and transferring. The paper provides side-by-side contrasts of some existing examples of conceptual modeling methodologies that apply to TM. Additionally, TM is applied in a case study of an actual inventory system that uses IBM Maximo. The resulting conceptual depictions point to the viability of FM as a valuable tool for developing a high-level representation of inventory processes.

 SPECIES SCORED: † Nimiokoala greystanei (type and only described species).
GEOLOGICAL PROVENANCE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Boid Site East (BSE) (Riversleigh Faunal Zone A or B), Riversleigh World Heritage Area, Queensland, Australia; Camel Sputum, Inabeyance, Neville’s Garden, Rat Vomit, Dirk’s Towers, and Upper sites (Riversleigh Faunal Zone B), Riversleigh World Heritage Area, Queensland, Australia.
 AGE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Arena et al. (2015) concluded that Boid Site East (BSE) was either Riversleigh Faunal Zone A or B; all other † N. greystanei specimens used here are from Riversleigh Faunal Zone B sites (Arena et al., 2015; Travouillon et al., 2006; Woodhead et al., 2014). Based on biostratigraphy, Riversleigh Faunal Zone A is interpreted to be late Oligocene, and Riversleigh Faunal Zone B is interpreted to be early Miocene (see above).
ASSIGNED AGE RANGE: 27.820 –15.970 Mya.
 REMARKS: † Nimiokoala greystanei is the second fossil phascolarctid for which relatively well-preserved craniodental material is available, namely a partial cranium (QM F30483) that was described in detail by Louys et al. (2009). Black and Archer (1997b) described the dentition of † N. greystanei, based on QM F30483 and several other, less complete specimens. QM F30483 is from Boid Site East (BSE), which is part of Riversleigh Faunal Zone A or B (Arena et al., 2015; Travouillon et al., 2006; Woodhead et al., 2014), whereas the remaining specimens are from Faunal Zone B sites. Like † Litokoala (see above), † N. greystanei was smaller (estimated body mass of 2.6–4.1 kg; Black et al., 2014b) and appears to have had a less derived masticatory system (Louys et al., 2009) than the Recent koala Phascolarctos cinereus. In the phylogenetic analyses of Black et al. (2012a) and Beck et al. (2020), † Nimiokoala was recovered as sister to a clade that included Phascolarctos and † Litokoala.

description: This is a short account of our work on the statistical mechanics of `cold' quantum black holes in the constituent model of a black hole$^{3,4,6}$. A quantum Schwarzschild black hole consists of gravitational atoms of Planckian mass scale$^{3,4,6}$. The gapless collective excitations of a bound state of N gravitational atoms dominate the thermodynamics of a cold quantum black hole. It turns out that it is only in the limit of large $N$, with the observable mean values of the gravitational mass-energy kept fixed, that we recover the Bekenstein thermodynamics$^1$ of spin-zero black holes. This is also the limit of the Boltzmann statistics.

description: Radial velocity is one of key measurements in understanding the fundamental properties of stars, stellar clusters and the Galaxy. A plate of stars in the Kepler field were observed in May of 2018 with the medium-resolution spectrographs of LAMOST, aiming to test the performance of this new system which is the upgraded equipment of LAMOST after the first five-year regular survey.We present our analysis on the radial velocity measurements (RVs) derived from these data. The results show that slight and significant systematic errors exist among the RVs obtained from the spectra collected by different spectrographs and exposures, respectively. After correcting the systematic errors with different techniques, the precision of RVs reaches ~1.3, ~1.0, ~0.5 and ~0.3 km/s at S/Nr = 10, 20, 50, and 100, respectively. Comparing with the RVs of the standard stars of the APOGEE survey, our RVs are calibrated with a zero-point shift of ~7 km/s. The results indicate that the LAMOST medium-resolution spectroscopic system may provide RVs in a reasonable accuracy and precision for the selected targets.

description: Additional file 4. Influence of maximum oxygen transfer capacities on acetoin formation with Bacillus licheniformis DSM 8785. Variation of the filling volume results in different maximum oxygen transfer capacities in shake flask cultivations. The shaking frequency was reduced from 350 to 100 rpm after 3 h. Thereby, oxygen-limited conditions are induced at the same time for all cultivations. Oxygen transfer rates (OTR) (a) and acetoin concentrations (b) are depicted. The time on the x-axis is presented relative to the time of glucose depletion (0 h). In addition to offline samples (open symbols), the concentrations upon glucose depletion were calculated as described in Fig. 4 (closed symbols). For clarity, the connection between the measured and calculated values is shown as dotted line. The time of glucose depletion is derived from the sudden drop of the respiratory quotient (RQ), as illustrated in Fig. 4. To account for the increase of metabolite concentrations due to evaporation of water, all concentrations were corrected accordingly and referred to the initial filling volume. Cultivation conditions: 250 mL unbaffled shake flasks, temperature: 37 °C, shaking frequency: 350/100 rpm, shaking diameter: 50 mm, Nakashimada medium with 100 mM MES buffer.

description: It is shown that in the extreme limit with a zero surface gravity but nonzero local temperature the limiting metric of a generic static black hole is determined by a metric induced on a horizon and one function of two coordinates, stress-energy tensor of a source picking up its values from a horizon. The limiting procedure is extended to rotating black holes. If the extreme limit is due to merging a black hole horizon and cosmological one both horizons are always in thermal equilibrium in this limit. This is proved for a generic case of static or axially-symmetrical rotating spacetimes.

description: ● The scope of the project is to create a culture of resilience as well as arrive at the performance matrix to measure it. This culture shall help UBC as well as City of Vancouver to reduce the impact from acute shocks and be more resilient ● The methodology involves identifying current state of resilience via survey (online as well as offline, in different language). The survey shall be conducted by people amongst the community of people, who are well knit via social circles, such as, clubs ● Depending on the results of the survey, next steps are decided and another survey is conducted to measure implementation of the same. Thus, it is an iterative process, with small progress at each step, ultimately reaching the ideal state of urban resilience ● The recommendations are centred around two broad themes –organization to community and community to community. The latter forms a part of social cohesion and for better implementation, both of the themes need to be implemented together ● Parallels can be drawn between City of Vancouver as well as UBC, however, the scope has been presently focussed on using UBC as a pilot, and eventually rolling to the city.

description: A theory is developed to calculate values of the potential energy barriers to structural relaxation in molecular glass formers from the data of static pair correlation function. The barrier height is shown to increase due to increase in number of the stable bonds a particle forms with its neighbours and energy of each bond as liquids move deeper into the supercooled (super-compressed) region. We present results for a system of hard-spheres and compare calculated values of the structural relaxation time with experimental and simulation results.

GEOLOGICAL PROVENANCE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: McEacherns Cave, Victoria, Australia; Comaum Forest Cave, South Australia, Australia; Wombeyan Caves, New South Wales, Australia.
 AGE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: The deposits containing specimens of † Warendja wakefieldi at McEacherns Cave, Comaum Forest Cave, and Wombeyan Caves are all estimated to be Pleistocene based on faunal composition (Hope and Wilkinson, 1982; Lundelius, 1983; Flannery and Pledge, 1987). We have assigned an age range of the entire Pleistocene (Cohen et al., 2013 [updated]) to this terminal.

 REMARKS: † Warendja wakefieldi was originally described based on two mandibles and six isolated teeth from McEacherns Cave, Victoria (Hope and Wilkinson, 1982). These specimens preserve characteristic vombatid apomorphies, most notably open-rooted (hypselodont) molars, but nevertheless appear distinctly more plesiomorphic than those of other known vombatids. Additional cranial material and teeth were subsequently recovered from Comaum Forest Cave, South Australia (Flannery and Pledge, 1987; Pledge, 1992), enabling reconstruction of a partial cranium (Pledge, 1992). Based on these specimens, the cranial morphology of † W. wakefieldi appears markedly more gracile than that of living vombatids (Pledge, 1992; Murray, 1998). Brewer (2007) described additional specimens of † W. wakefieldi from Wombeyan Caves, New South Wales, and we used her description to score some characters for this terminal. Brewer et al. (2007) described another species († W. encorensis) based on fragmentary dental remains from the Riversleigh Faunal Zone D (?late Miocene) Encore Site at Riversleigh, but we did not use those specimens for scoring purposes.

description: This dissertation examines the production and management of genetic risk for breast and ovarian cancer in the United States in the new era of multi-gene panel testing. Drawing on three years of ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews with genetics health professionals and women with mutations, this project is the first social science study to examine how breast and ovarian cancer genetic risk is constructed and managed among women with variants of uncertain significance or moderate-risk mutations. Moving beyond an individual-level focus on women’s risk management decisions, this project instead explores how the structures, practices, and organization of genetic medicine constrain and enable those decisions.
      There are four key findings from this study. First, the adoption of panel testing has shifted the boundaries of risk, disease, and patienthood and contributed to a spectrum of medicalization of breast and ovarian cancer risk. Women with high-risk breast and ovarian cancer mutations are now typically viewed and treated like full patients with a "disease," while women with moderate-risk mutations occupy a liminal space of qualified patienthood. Second, the structures and organization of genetic medicine in the United States point women with breast and ovarian cancer mutations toward risk-reducing mastectomy and breast reconstruction and encourage choosing those surgical responses over breast surveillance or staying flat. Mastectomy has become the standard “treatment” for the “disease” of genetic risk for breast cancer, regardless of whether women have high- or moderate-risk mutations and despite more conservative recommendations in clinical guidelines.
      Third, the structures of genetic medicine and the contemporary gender order in the United States are mutually constituted and co-produced. Breast reconstruction and gynecologic surgery practices both emerge from and reinforce gendered social and cultural norms that prioritize women's appearance and their reproductive capacity over their embodied experiences and daily quality of life. Finally, the discourses and practices of genetic medicine leave many women un- or under-prepared for the duration and severity of the side effects and consequences associated with breast reconstruction and risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy. By closely examining the social and structural dimensions of how cancer genetic risk is produced and managed in the United States, this project illuminates how clinical practices that magnify and focus on reducing certain risks simultaneously obscure and generate exposure to others.

description: Motion of a single electron in a disordered alloy and or interacting electrons systems such as magnetic materials, strongly correlated systems and superconductors is replaced by motion of that in an effective medium which is denoted by self-energy. The study of disordered alloy and interacting electrons systems based on single electron motion is an old challenge and an important problem in condensed matter physics. In this paper we introduce a real space approximation beyond super cell approximation for the study of these systems to capture multi-site effects. Average disordered alloy or interacting system is replaced by a self-energy, $Σ(i,j,E)$. We divided self-energy in q-space $Σ({\bf q}; E)=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{ij}e^{i{\bf q}.{\bf r}_{ij}}Σ(i,j; E)$ into two parts $Σ({\bf q}; E)=\frac{1}{N_{c}}\sum_{IJ\in\; \mbox{\tiny same cluster}}e^{i{\bf q}.{\bf r}_{IJ}}Σ(I,J; E)+\frac{1}{N}\sum_{ij\notin \:\mbox{\tiny same cluster}}e^{i{\bf q}.{\bf r}_{IJ}}Σ(I,J,E)$ where $\{Lc_{1}, Lc_{2},Lc_{3}\}$ are dimensions of the super cell. We show that neglecting the second term of q-space self-energy leads to super cell approximation $e^{iq_{j} Lc_{j}}=1$, hence $ q_{j}$ determined by $ q_{j} Lc_{j}=2πn_{j}$. Then we kept this correction in the second step to add self energies of sites in different super cells which leads to fully q-dependent self energy in the first Brillouin zone (FBZ). Our self-energy in FBZ is casual, fully q-dependent, and continuous with respect to ${\bf q}$. It recovers coherent potential approximation in the single site approximation and is exact when the number of sites in the super cell approaches to the total number of lattice sites. We illustrate that this approximation undertakes electrons localization for one and two dimensional alloy systems which isn't observed by previous multi site approximations.

description: We present a detailed analysis of the modulational instability (MI) of ground-state bright solitary solutions of two incoherently coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. Varying the relative strength of cross-phase and self-phase effects we show existence and origin of four branches of MI of the two-wave solitary solutions. We give a physical interpretation of our results in terms of the group velocity dispersion (GVD) induced polarization dynamics of spatial solitary waves. In particular, we show that in media with normal GVD spatial symmetry breaking changes to polarization symmetry breaking when the relative strength of the cross-phase modulation exceeds a certain threshold value. The analytical and numerical stability analyses are fully supported by an extensive series of numerical simulations of the full model.

Variation in postpartum maternal care programs the development of neuroendocrine and mesolimbic dopamine pathways in female offspring

description: Variation in adult rat maternal behavior is predicted by the experience of maternal licking and grooming (LG) in infancy, such that females that experience high levels of LG (High LG) during postnatal development typically themselves become High LG dams, and females that experience low levels of LG become Low LG dams. Experience of high maternal LG also predicts elevated estrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha) and oxytocin receptor levels in brain regions critical for maternal behavior such as the medial preoptic area of the hypothalamus. The first series of experiments within this thesis demonstrates that these neuroendocrine differences in ERalpha-immunoreactivity and mRNA emerge in offspring during the postnatal period (postnatal days 0-21). These studies also show postnatal emergence of epigenetic alterations of the ERalpha gene (Esr1), including DNA methylation and chromatin remodeling, in response to maternal care. Furthermore, this research reveals sensitive periods during postnatal development for maternal LG to affect gene expression and onset of maternal behavior in juvenile offspring. The mesolimbic dopamine system is also critically implicated in adult maternal behaviors, and was hypothesized to be responsive to variation in maternal LG. A second series of studies demonstrate that low or high levels of maternal LG predict levels of dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area, an effect that emerges during the postnatal period and lasts through adulthood. These neurobiological changes within the ventral tegmental area may be shaped by maternal LG-associated effects on postnatal levels of transcription factors that contribute to development of the mesolimbic dopamine system. Reward-directed behaviors known to be dependent upon mesolimbic dopamine function were also found to be different among offspring of High or Low LG dams. Finally, a third series of experiments reveal that over-expressing ERalpha in the medial preoptic area beginning early in postnatal development is sufficient to enhance maternal behaviors, and increase the level of dopaminergic cells in the ventral tegmental area in offspring reared by Low LG dams to the level of those reared by High LG dams. This finding suggests that ERalpha is a mediating factor for the effect of maternal LG on offspring maternal behavior. Together, these studies show that the quality of the maternal environment early in life programs long-lasting alterations in two brain systems critical for complex behaviors such as maternal and reward-directed behaviors.

description: We show that in a generic case of the pre-big-bang scenario, inflation will solve cosmological problems only if the universe at the onset of inflation is extremely large and homogeneous from the very beginning. The size of a homogeneous part of the universe at the beginning of the stage of pre-big-bang (PBB) inflation must be greater than $10^{19}$ $l_s$, where $l_s$ is the stringy length. The total mass of an inflationary domain must be greater than $10^{72} M_{s}$, where $M_{s} \sim l_s^{-1}$. If the universe is initially radiation dominated, then its total entropy at that time must be greater than $10^{68}$. If the universe is closed, then at the moment of its formation it must be uniform over $10^{24}$ causally disconnected domains. The natural duration of the PBB stage in this scenario is $M_p^{-1}$. We argue that the initial state of the open PBB universe could not be homogeneous because of quantum fluctuations. Independently of the issue of homogeneity, one must introduce two large dimensionless parameters, $g_0^{-2} > 10^{53}$, and $B > 10^{91}$, in order to solve the flatness problem in the PBB cosmology. A regime of eternal inflation does not occur in the PBB scenario. This should be compared with the simplest versions of the chaotic inflation scenario, where the regime of eternal inflation may begin in a universe of size $O(M_{p}^{-1})$ with vanishing initial radiation entropy, mass $O(M_p)$, and geometric entropy O(1). We conclude that the current version of the PBB scenario cannot replace usual inflation even if one solves the graceful exit problem in this scenario.

As indicated by the vertical dotted line, the shaking frequency was reduced from 350 to 100 rpm after 3 h. Data on oxygen transfer rate (OTR) and respiratory quotient (RQ) (a), and total 2,3-butanediol and glucose concentration (b) are depicted. In addition to offline samples (open symbols), the concentrations upon glucose depletion were calculated as illustrated in Fig. 4 (closed symbols). For clarity, the connection between the measured and calculated values is shown as dotted line. 2,3-Butanediol is shown as sum of the stereoisomers. The RQ is only shown for OTR > 1 mmol/L/h. To account for the increase of metabolite concentrations due to evaporation of water, all concentrations were corrected accordingly and referred to the initial filling volume.

description: The occurrence of chaos for test particles moving around a slowly rotating black hole with a dipolar halo is studied using Poincaré sections. We find a novel effect, particles with angular momentum opposite to the black hole rotation have larger chaotic regions in phase space than particles initially moving in the same direction.
