description: Preeclampsia is a complex pregnancy-related hypertensive disorder which poses significant risks for both maternal and fetal health. Preeclampsia affects 5–8% of pregnancies in the United States, causing a significant public health and economic burden. Despite extensive research, the etiology and pathogenesis of preeclampsia remain elusive, but have been correlated with maternal conditions such as obesity. In recent decades, the incidence of preeclampsia increased along with the prevalence of obesity among women of reproductive age. Maternal obesity has been shown to negatively affect pregnancy in almost all aspects. However, the precise mechanisms by which obesity influences preeclampsia are unclear. Ankyrin repeat and SOCS Box Containing protein 4 (ASB4) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that can promote the degradation of a wide range of target proteins. ASB4-null mice display a full spectrum of preeclampsia-like phenotypes during pregnancy including hypertension, proteinuria, and decreased litter size. Furthermore, maternal obesity induced by a high-fat diet aggravates preeclampsia-like phenotypes in pregnant mice lacking ASB4. Variants in the ASB4 gene have been associated with obesity in humans, and a functional connection between the ASB4 gene and obesity has been established in mice. This review discusses the connections between preeclampsia, obesity, and ASB4.

description:
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. The ongoing public health concern includes the growing burden of disease, particularly in low-and middle-income countries, and the increase of disease in younger individuals, particularly men. The leading cause of CVD is atherosclerosis affecting the main artery branches, particularly medium and large-size arteries, such as the carotid and coronary arteries.
Plaque rupture is the most common complication of atherosclerosis, causing thrombus formation in the arterial lumen and leading to major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and sudden death. Atherosclerosis and its complications are highly preventable and manageable with pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment. However, atherosclerosis shows few or no symptoms during its long silent phase, rooted in its physiopathology, which is a significant limitation to early detection, it is believed that the early genesis of disease occurs at a young age. This highlights the relevance of promptly assessing risk and targeting risk factors.To assess the risk level in individuals, it is crucial to consider the impact of traditional risk factors, such as age, sex, smoking, elevated blood pressure and increased levels of cholesterol. Other risk factors that increase the risk of atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) include excess weight and diabetes mellitus. Family history has also been considered a relevant risk factor.The assessment and management of risk factors associated with asymptomatic atherosclerosis provides an opportunity to target and treat those at high risk. Risk detection is typically done using an absolute cardiovascular disease risk (ACVDR) approach. However, predicted risk is often underestimated or overestimated in individuals assessed as low or intermediate risk, which may lead to under-treatment or overtreatment respectively.To address this gap, novel markers of subclinical atherosclerosis have been considered a viable approach to assessing anatomic changes, anticipating disease progression and complications of atherosclerosis. Novel markers include coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring which assesses calcium deposits in the coronary arteries using computerised tomography. Also, carotid intima-media thickness (OMT) and carotid plaque assessment may be obtained using carotid ultrasound. Although these three markers evaluate different physio-pathological processes, evidence shows that all are important in detecting and predicting CVD outcomes.

description: 30. Autostichidae – autostichid moths Small (10–20 mm wingspan) moths with moderately broad, rounded wings. Adults resemble oecophorids and those of many species are brightly colored. Larvae feed on dead and decaying plant and animal material. The family Autostichidae is a diverse group, containing several subfamilies that have previously been placed in their own families or in the Elachistidae, Oecophoridae, or Blastobasinae. Th ey were united by Hodges (1999a) on the basis of genital and wing characters. Approximately 300 species are known, from all parts of the world except the Paleotropical region. Five species are known in North America, all in the subfamily Symmocinae. Two species are known from AB. Th is family has not been revised, but information on some species is available in Clarke (1941) and Powell (1992).

description: We propose a class of path-entangled photon Fock states for robust quantum optical metrology, imaging, and sensing in the presence of loss. We model propagation loss with beam-splitters and derive a reduced density matrix formalism from which we examine how photon loss affects coherence. It is shown that particular entangled number states, which contain a special superposition of photons in both arms of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, are resilient to environmental decoherence. We demonstrate an order of magnitude greater visibility with loss, than possible with N00N states. We also show that the effectiveness of a detection scheme is related to super-resolution visibility.

description: Scalar-tensor theories whose phenomenology differs significantly from general relativity on large (e.g. cosmological) scales do not typically pass local experimental tests (e.g. in the solar system) unless they present a suitable "screening mechanism". An example is provided by chameleon screening, whereby the local general relativistic behavior is recovered in high density environments, at least in weak-field and quasi-static configurations. Here, we test the validity of chameleon screening in strong-field and highly relativistic/dynamical conditions, by performing fully non-linear simulations of neutron stars subjected to initial perturbations that cause them to oscillate or even collapse to a black hole. We confirm that screened chameleon stars are stable to sufficiently small radial oscillations, but that the frequency spectrum of the latter shows deviations from the general relativistic predictions. We also calculate the scalar fluxes produced during collapse to a black hole, and comment on their detectability with future gravitational-wave interferometers.

description: A conventional study of fluid simulation involves different stages including conception, simulation, visualization, and analysis tasks. It is, therefore, necessary to switch between different software and interactive contexts which implies costly data manipulation and increases the time needed for decision making. Our interactive simulation approach was designed to shorten this loop, allowing users to visualize and steer a simulation in progress without waiting for the end of the simulation. The methodology allows the users to control, start, pause, or stop a simulation in progress, to change global physical parameters, to interact with its 3D environment by editing boundary conditions such as walls or obstacles. This approach is made possible by using a methodology such as the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) to achieve interactive time while remaining physically relevant. In this work, we present our platform dedicated to interactive fluid simulation based on LBM. The contribution of our interactive simulation approach to decision making will be evaluated in a study based on a simple but realistic use case.

description: The cross sections for $e^+ e^- \to ϕπ^+π^-$ and $e^+ e^- \to ϕ\fzero$ are measured from threshold to $\sqrt{s}=3.0$ $\hbox{GeV}$ using initial state radiation. The analysis is based on a data sample of 673 fb$^{-1}$ collected on and below the $Υ(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. First measurements are reported for the resonance parameters of the $ϕ(1680)$ in the $ϕπ^+π^-$ mode: $m=(1689\pm 7\pm 10)$ MeV/$c^2$ and $Γ=(211\pm 14\pm 19)$ MeV/$c^2$. A structure at $\sqrt{s}=2.1 \hbox{GeV}/c^2$, corresponding to the so called Y(2175), is observed; its mass and width are determined to be $2079\pm13^{+79}_{-28}$ MeV/$c^2$ and $192\pm23^{+25}_{-61} \hbox{MeV}/c^2$, respectively.

description: The fact that the formula used by Hannay in his Comment is "from a standard text on electrodynamics" neither warrants that it is universally applicable, nor that it is unequivocally correct. We have explicitly shown [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 25, 543 (2008)] that,since it does not include the boundary contribution toward the value of the field, the formula in question is not applicable when the source is extended and has a distribution pattern that rotates faster than light in vacuo. The neglected boundary term in the retarded solution to the wave equation governing the electromagnetic field forms the basis of diffraction theory. If this term were identically zero, for the reasons given by Hannay, the iffraction of electromagnetic waves through apertures on a surface enclosing a source would have been impossible.

description: Cluster galaxies moving through the intracluster medium (ICM) are expected to lose some of their interstellar medium (ISM) through ram pressure stripping and related ISM-ICM interactions. Using high-resolution cosmological simulations of a large galaxy cluster including star formation, we show that the ram pressure a galaxy experiences at a fixed distance from the cluster center can vary by well over an order of magnitude We find that this variation in ram pressure is due in almost equal parts to variation in the ICM density and in the relative velocity between the galaxy and the ICM. We also find that the ICM and galaxy velocities are weakly correlated for in-falling galaxies.

description: We develop a formalism to study non-Gaussianity in both curvature and isocurvature perturbations. It is shown that non-Gaussianity in the isocurvature perturbation between dark matter and photons leaves distinct signatures in the CMB temperature fluctuations, which may be confirmed in future experiments, or possibly, even in the currently available observational data. As an explicit example, we consider the QCD axion and show that it can actually induce sizable non-Gaussianity for the inflationary scale, H_{inf} = O(10^9 - 10^{11})GeV.

description: Vehicular traffic is a classical example of a multi-agent system in which autonomous drivers operate in a shared environment. The article provides an overview of the state-of-the-art in microscopic traffic modeling and the implications for simulation techniques. We focus on the short-time dynamics of car-following models which describe continuous feedback control tasks (acceleration and braking) and models for discrete-choice tasks as a response to the surrounding traffic. The driving style of an agent is characterized by model parameters such as reaction time, desired speed, desired time gap, anticipation etc. In addition, internal state variables corresponding to the agent's "mind" are used to incorporate the driving experiences. We introduce a time-dependency of some parameters to describe the frustration of drivers being in a traffic jam for a while. Furthermore, the driver's behavior is externally influenced by the neighboring vehicles and also by environmental input such as limited motorization and braking power, visibility conditions and road traffic regulations. A general approach for dealing with discrete decision problems in the context of vehicular traffic is introduced and applied to mandatory and discretionary lane changes. Furthermore, we consider the decision process whether to brake or not when approaching a traffic light turning from green to amber. Another aspect of vehicular traffic is related to the heterogeneity of drivers. We discuss a hybrid system of coupled vehicle and information flow which can be used for developing and testing applications of upcoming inter-vehicle communication techniques.

description: We examine the UV emission from luminous early-type galaxies as a function of redshift. We perform a stacking analysis using Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) images of galaxies in the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey (NDWFS) Boötes field and examine the evolution in the UV colors of the average galaxy. Our sample, selected to have minimal ongoing star formation based on the optical to mid-IR SEDs of the galaxies, includes 1843 galaxies spanning the redshift range $0.05\leq z\leq0.65$. We find evidence that the strength of the UV excess decreases, on average, with redshift, and our measurements also show moderate disagreement with previous models of the UV excess. Our results show little evolution in the shape of the UV continuum with redshift, consistent either with the binary model for the formation of Extreme Horizontal Branch (EHB) stars or with no evolution in EHB morphology with look-back time. However, the binary formation model predicts that the strength of the UV excess should also be relatively constant, in contradiction with our measured results. Finally, we see no significant influence of a galaxy's environment on the strength of its UV excess.

description: We investigate the Josephson effect through a molecular quantum dot magnet connected to superconducting leads. The molecule contains a magnetic atom, whose spin is assumed to be isotropic. It is coupled to the electron spin on the dot via exchange coupling. Using the numerical renormalization group method we calculate the Andreev levels and the supercurrent and examine intertwined effect of the exchange coupling, Kondo correlation, and superconductivity on the current. Exchange coupling typically suppresses the Kondo correlation so that the system undergoes a phase transition from 0 to $π$ state as the modulus of exchange coupling increases. Antiferromagnetic coupling is found to drive exotic transitions: the reentrance to the $π$ state for a small superconducting gap and the restoration of 0 state for large antiferromagnetic exchange coupling. We suggest that the asymmetric dependence of supercurrent on the exchange coupling could be used as to detect its sign in experiments.

description: Photographer and media artist Elke Reinhuber explores the dark side of a tropical paradise in which almost every aspect of life seems to be too good to be true. Living there for more than half a decade, the location came very close to her imagination of Eden. Everything is clean and tidy, people from different ethnicities and cultures live peacefully together in harmony – all compromising to communicate in an acquired language, softly – hardly anyone ever speaks up or expresses a strong opinion. The city-state’s character is shaped by the very far-reaching intervention in the existence of all of its residents. The full habitat is exposed to a constant revision and optimisation – this encroaching regime begins with the handling of the topography. The metropolis is in an ongoing process of terraforming by extending the coastline into the sea, levelling the hills and then compacting the swamps with the overburden; rivers were relocated, lagoons were turned into inland lakes, in short, nature was brought= under complete control. This total command feels so self-evident that every aspect of surveillance and punishment – if any of the rules are violated – is understood as part of the social contract. However, looking behind the façade will reveal only what everyone already knows, like on the “Titanic”, the machine deck hides the relevant people in the dark. The artistic research examines how the comfort and fear of total control, self-censorship and constant surveillance may be observed and expressed in independent artistic projects.

description: We investigate long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB) which manifest a sharp linear rise followed by an exponential decay in their gamma-ray prompt emission observed with the BAT instrument on board the Swift satellite. We offer a simple electrodynamic model that may account for these particular characteristics. We associate the sharp rise with the winding of the magnetic field by the fast rotating core that formed in the interior of the stellar precursor. We also associate the subsequent exponential decay with the electromagnetic spin-down of the core following the release of the electromagnetic jet from the stellar interior. Any non-axisymmetric distortion in the rotating core will generate gravitational waves with exponentially decreasing frequency, a so-called "down-chirp". We obtain a detailed estimate of the gravitational wave profile if the distortion of spacetime is due to the winding of a non-axisymmetric component of the magnetic field during that particular phase of the burst. We offer 7 particular time intervals during which one may look into LIGO archival data for the presence of our particular predicted waveforms in order to test our interpretation.

The resulting system is symmetric under the subgroup of the hypercubic group that preserves a major hypercube diagonal. The symmetry includes both parity even and odd transformations, but allows for an anisotropy to appear at finite lattice spacing.

To understand the role of corruption chapter 1 explores corruption in both Africa and other developing nations and associated risk factors. Chapter 2 explores the clinical container project in Kenya via an analysis of newspaper articles on the topic with reference to sentiment. A further content and thematic analysis is presented in Chapter 2 supported by quotes aligned to the Kenyan clinical container timeline. Such a study has not been previously undertaken. Aim: The aims of this thesis was to conduct a content and thematic analysis of local Kenyan newspapers that examined the Estama Investment Limited contract to supply container clinics and factors across the value chain and over time that led to the failure of the clinics. Methods: Using NVivo, a content and thematic analysis was conducted on available newspaper media coverage related to container clinics and associated thematic factors associated with failure. Six pre-defined themes including timing and announcement of the clinic’s project, initial purpose of the clinics, reasons for failure, sentiment over time of the project, cost, and pragmatic recommendations. Results: Initial searches revealed 57 newspaper articles mentioning mobile container clinics and related subjects. 80.7% (n = 46) of screened newspapers met the inclusion criteria. A total of 102 statements were extracted and analysed from the 46 shortlisted newspaper articles. The mobile clinic scandal was examined under 6 themes described in the methods. Analysis showed that funding misappropriation accounted for the failure of the container clinic project. Primarily, later stage reporting confirmed negative sentiment focused on the political influence on the initiation and implementation of the project and associated mismanagement of public funds and lack of transparency. Conclusions: The findings from this thesis highlighted the need for transparency, accountability, and integrity in government procurement processes to prevent loss of public funds and provides opportunities for a case study for large scale implementation of health service offerings in low resource countries. It is however difficult when external countries are engaged to track accountability.

description: We analyze the operation of a molecular machine driven by the non-adiabatic variation of external parameters. We derive a formula for the integrated flow from one configuration to another, obtain a "no-pumping theorem" for cyclic processes with thermally activated transitions, and show that in the adiabatic limit the pumped current is given by a geometric expression.

description: The Efstathiou, Lake and Negroponte (1982) criterion can not distinguish bar stable from bar unstable discs and thus should not be used in semi-analytic galaxy formation simulations. I discuss the reasons for this, illustrate it with examples and point out shortcomings in the recipes used for spheroid formation. I propose an alternative, although much less straightforward, possibility.

description: Metallicity is a fundamental probe for understanding the baryon physics in a galaxy. Since metals are intricately associated with radiative cooling, star formation, and feedback, reproducing the observed metal distribution through numerical experiments will provide a prominent way to examine our understandings of galactic baryon physics. In this study, we analyze the dependence of the galactic metal distribution on the numerical schemes and quantify the differences in the metal mixing among modern galaxy simulation codes (the mesh-based code Enzo and the particle-based codes Gadget-2 and Gizmo-PSPH). In particular, we examine different stellar feedback strengths and an explicit metal diffusion scheme in particle-based codes, as a way to alleviate the well-known discrepancy in metal transport between mesh-based and particle-based simulations. We demonstrate that a sufficient number of gas particles are needed in the gas halo to properly investigate the metal distribution therein. Including an explicit metal diffusion scheme does not significantly affect the metal distribution in the galactic disk but does change the amount of low-metallicity gas in the hot-diffuse halo. We also find that the spatial distribution of metals depends strongly on how the stellar feedback is modeled. We demonstrate that the previously reported discrepancy in metals between mesh-based and particle-based simulations can be mitigated with our proposed prescription, enabling these simulations to be reliably utilized in the study of metals in galactic halos and the circumgalactic medium.

The Host Galaxies of Short-Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts: Luminosities, Metallicities, and Star Formation Rates

description: The association of some short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with elliptical galaxies established that their progenitors, unlike those of long GRBs, belong to an old stellar population. However, the majority of short GRBs appear to occur in star forming galaxies, raising the possibility that some progenitors are related to recent star formation activity. Here we present optical spectroscopy of these hosts and measure their luminosities, star formation rates, and metallicities. We find luminosities of L_B~0.1-1.5 L*, star formation rates of SFR~0.2-6 M_sun/yr, and metallicities of 12+log(O/H)~8.5-8.9 (Z~0.6-1.6 Z_sun). A detailed comparison to the hosts of long GRBs reveals systematically higher luminosities, lower specific star formation rates (SFR/L_B) by about an order of magnitude, and higher metallicities by about 0.6 dex. The K-S probability that the short and long GRB hosts are drawn from the same underlying galaxy distribution is only 10^-3. On the other hand, short GRB hosts exhibit excellent agreement with the specific star formation rates and the luminosity-metallicity relation of field galaxies at z~0.1-1. We thus conclude that short GRB hosts are not dominated by young stellar populations like long GRBs hosts. Instead, short GRB hosts appear to be drawn uniformly from the underlying galaxy distribution, indicating that the progenitors have a wide age distribution of several Gyr.

The Frick collection Rider by Rembrandt van Rijn

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The Frick Collection Rider by Rembrandt (commonly known as the Polish Rider) has been studied and supposedly identified by art historians. This thesis reviews writings on the painting from its description by Anton Bredius in 1897 to the present day, and proposes new material relevant to a better understanding of the function and meaning of the painting. Julius Held firmly established the art historical study of the Polish Rider in an article in 1944. His source material includes Polish and non-Polish writings, as well as pictorial comparisons. His conclusion, is that the Polish Rider is not a commissioned portrait, perhaps not even Polish, but rather a representation of some important allegorical or historical figure. W.S. Valentiner writing in 1948 agreed while Jan Bialostocki in 1969 and Colin Campbell in a number of articles in the 1970's agreed with qualifications. There are others, however, who strongly disagree. Zdzislav Zygulski in 1965 proposes that the Polish Rider be identified as a real portrait of a Lisowski-like cavalryman while B.P.J. Broos in 1975 concludes the portrait is of a seventeenth century Polish sitter. In the painting itself, there is no evocation of the glory of seventeenth century Netherlands. It hints rather of the glories and thoughts of other times and places. The rider is not real but lost in ancient stories, in exploits that he has been through. His bearing, his horse and the land around him create an atmosphere of the exotic. The viewer is left to sense the heritage and strength of the rider and his life. The attitude of a noble hero, a symbol to be held in admiration, is found in few characters with the Polish Rider's attributes. As Bialostocki had said, it would almost be better suited to the graphic medium of the emblemata. One figure in particular fits the description and the mood of the Rembrandt painting, and that is the three-fold personality of St. Reinold of Pantaleon/Renaud of Les Quatre Fils Aymon. Here is one of the few persons who was popular in seventeenth century literature, and who as a soldier and a saint gives acceptable meaning to the Frick Collection Rider.

description: Am 18. November 2021 fand im virtuellen Format am Institut ifak das 12. Jahreskolloquium der Reihe KommA – Kommunikation in der Automation statt. Das abwechselnd von den Instituten inIT, Lemgo und ifak, Magdeburg veranstaltete Kolloquium ist ein bewährtes Forum für Wissenschaft und Industrie zu allen technisch-wissenschaftlichen Fragen rund um die industrielle Kommunikation. Die Veranstaltung wird durch die ITG und die Gesellschaft für Informatik unterstützt. Dem Kolloquium vorgeschaltet war im Jahr 2021 der vom Industrial Radio Lab Germany unter Leitung des ifak organisierte Industrial Radio Day. Im Fokus des Jahreskolloquiums stehen Kommunikationssysteme – vom Feldbus, über Echtzeit-Ethernet bis zur drahtlosen Kommunikation und der Nutzung von IoT-Technologien. Bei der Systemanalyse und dem Entwurf von Kommunikationssystemen widmen sich die Tagungsbeiträge der formalen Modellierung, der Verifikation und Validierung sowie Interoperabilität, Konformität und Test. Als bedeutsame Aspekte vernetzter eingebetteter Echtzeitsysteme behandelt das KommA-Kolloquium u.a. die Dienstgüte, semantische Interoperabilität, Safety und Security, die Systemintegration und das Engineering. Neben aktuellen Kommunikationstechnologien bilden die vielfältigen Anwendungsbereiche der industriellen Kommunikation einen Schwerpunkt. Unbenommen vom reichhaltigen Veranstaltungsangebot auf dem Gebiet der automatisierungstechnischen Kommunikation hat das Jahreskolloquium KommA seinen speziellen Platz. Neben den großen internationalen Tagungen wird bewusst der Austausch im kleinen Kreis gepflegt. Bei aller Technologie- und Anwendungsorientierung des Kolloquiums steht die Wissenschaftlichkeit im Fokus. Alle Beitragskurzfassungen werden deshalb von mindestens zwei Vertretern des Programmkomitees begutachtet. Der Verzicht auf parallele Sitzungen befördert den Gedankenaustausch. Damit trotz der kurzen Tagungsdauer die wichtigsten Themen, Entwicklungen und Trends adressiert werden können, gehören neben den Vorträgen zusätzlich Poster zum Programm. Wie im Fall der Vorträge finden sich auch die Vollmanuskripte der als Poster präsentierten Beiträge im elektronischen Tagungsband

description: Damit beliebige Assets in Industrie 4.0-Systemen verwen-det werden können, müssen deren Informationen, Merkmale und Ver-halten digital abgebildet werden. Dies wird über das Konzept der Ver-waltungsschale realisiert. In der Umsetzung dieses Konzeptes stößtman jedoch auf mehrere Herausforderungen. Die Verwaltungsscha-le bildet dabei die verschiedenen Aspekte der Assets in Teilmodel-len ab. Die verschiedenen fachlichen Zuständigkeiten der Teilmodelleführt einerseits zu sehr unterschiedlichen Eigenschaften im Hinblickauf die Dynamik dieser Teilmodelle, andererseits können Leistungs-und Verbindungseigenschaften von I4.0 Assets unterschiedlichen Be-schränkungen unterliegen. So können die Assets beispielsweise bezüg-lich der Leistungsfähigkeit und somit der möglichen Operationen alsauch hinsichtlich ihrer Erreichbarkeit im Netzwerk beschränkt sein.Daher bietet es sich an, die Verwaltungsschale und deren Services aufunterschiedlichen Systemebenen zu verteilen. Auf diese Weise lassensich die verschiedenen Anwendungsszenarien eines Assets gezielteradressieren. Dynamische Aspekte können so in Teilmodellen in direk-ter Nähe des Assets realisiert werden, während aufwendigere Opera-tionen an rechentechnisch mächtigere Systemebenen, wie zum Bei-spiel die Cloud, ausgelagert werden können. Ebenso können relativstatische Informationen von der Erreichbarkeit des Assets entkoppeltwerden, indem diese Informationen von einer zuverlässig erreichbarenEbene, zum Beispiel einem Gateway, verwaltet werden. In dieser Ar-beit wird ein verteilter Ansatz zur Bereitstellung und Ausführung von(pro-)aktiven Verwaltungsschalen für I4.0 Komponenten vorgestellt.

description: We established in an earlier study that articles listed at or near the top of the daily arXiv:astro-ph mailings receive on average significantly more citations than articles further down the list. In our earlier work we were not able to decide whether this positional citation effect was due to author self-promotion of intrinsically more citable papers or whether papers are cited more often simply because they are at the top of the astro-ph listing. Using new data we can now disentangle both effects. Based on their submission times we separate articles into a self-promoted sample and a sample of articles that achieved a high rank on astro-ph by chance and compare their citation distributions with those of articles on lower astro-ph positions. We find that the positional citation effect is a superposition of self-promotion and visibility bias.
