description: These lectures provide a pedagogical, introductory review of the so-called Attractor Mechanism (AM) at work in two different 4-dimensional frameworks: extremal black holes in N=2 supergravity and N=1 flux compactifications. In the first case, AM determines the stabilization of scalars at the black hole event horizon purely in terms of the electric and magnetic charges, whereas in the second context the AM is responsible for the stabilization of the universal axion-dilaton and of the (complex structure) moduli purely in terms of the RR and NSNS fluxes. Two equivalent approaches to AM, namely the so-called ``criticality conditions'' and ``New Attractor'' ones, are analyzed in detail in both frameworks, whose analogies and differences are discussed. Also a stringy analysis of both frameworks (relying on Hodge-decomposition techniques) is performed, respectively considering Type IIB compactified on $CY_{3}$ and its orientifolded version, associated with $\frac{CY_{3}\times T^{2}}{\mathbb{Z}_{2}}$. Finally, recent results on the U-duality orbits and moduli spaces of non-BPS extremal black hole attractors in $3\leqslant N\leqslant 8$, d=4 supergravities are reported.

description: Context-based learning (CBL) has influenced teaching and learning science in many countries over the past decades. Twelve years ago, a special issue on CBL was published in this Journal, focusing on CBL curriculum development. Seven papers in this current special issue on CBL now address the question of how a context influences the learning process. The papers focus on the stimulation of learning STEM subjects within contexts, how the learning process occurs and is enhanced, and the application of contexts in different settings. The approaches, results, and implications of the papers are located in a larger view that considers the question of what must be the case if a student not only engages in the tasks of learning but also succeeds at them. Concerning willingness and effort by learners, the papers draw conclusions about which STEM-related interests of students endure and are ephemeral across a decade, design criteria for maximising students’ situational interest, and students’ engagement with content and context simultaneously. Focusing on the opportunity to teach and learn, the papers reveal how a professional development approach functions to support STEM teachers to develop CBL materials, and how specific scaffolding acts in teaching bring students to more complex reasoning. Regarding good teaching, insights are offered on how metacognitive prompts improve teaching. Centring on the social surround that supports teaching and learning, a comparison of two contexts for teaching the same content reveals which aspects of the contexts move student learning forward. From this mapping, paths toward future research are projected.
Principle of Minimum Energy in Magnetic Reconnection in a Self-Organized Critical Model for Solar Flares

description: Solar flares are an abrupt release of magnetic energy in the Sun's atmosphere due to reconnection of the coronal magnetic field. This occurs in response to turbulent flows at the photosphere which twist the coronal field. Similar to earthquakes, solar flares represent the behavior of a complex system, and expectedly their energy distribution follows a power law. We present a statistical model based on the principle of minimum energy in a coronal loop undergoing magnetic reconnection, which is described as an avalanche process. We show the distribution of peaks for the flaring events in this self-organized critical system is scale-free. The obtained power law index 1.84 $ \pm $ 0.02 for the peaks is in good agreement with satellite observations of soft X-ray flares. The principle of minimum energy can be applied for general avalanche models to describe many other phenomena.

description: Customized voltage waveforms composed of a number of frequencies and used as the excitation of radio-frequency plasmas can control various plasma parameters such as energy distribution functions, homogeneity of the ionflux or ionization dynamics. So far this technology, while being extensively studied in academia, has yet to be established in applications. One reason for this is the lack of a suitable multi-frequency matching network that allows for maximum power absorption for each excitation frequency that is generated and transmitted via a single broadband amplifier. In this work, a method is introduced for designing such a network based on network theory and synthesis. Using this method, a circuit simulation is established that connects an exemplary matching network to an equivalent circuit plasma model of a capacitive radio-frequency discharge. It is found that for a range of gas pressures and number of excitation frequencies the matching conditions can be satisfied, which proves the functionality and feasibility of the proposed concept. Based on the proposed multi-frequency impedance matching, tailored voltage waveforms can be used at an industrial level.

description: Quarks and leptons may be related to each other through a spontaneously broken discrete symmetry. Models with acceptable and interesting collider phenomenology have been constructed which incorporate this idea. However, the standard Hot Big Bang model of cosmology is generally considered to eschew spontaneously broken discrete symmetries because they often lead to the formation of unacceptably massive domain walls. We point out that there are a number of plausible quark-lepton symmetric models which do not produce cosmologically troublesome domain walls. We also raise what we think are some interesting questions concerning anomalous discrete symmetries.

description: It is widely accepted that solar flares involve release of magnetic energy stored in the solar corona above an active region, but existing models do not include the explicitly time-dependent electrodynamics needed to describe such energy release. A flare paradigm is discussed that includes the electromotive force (EMF) as the driver of the flare, and the flare-associated current that links different regions where magnetic reconnection, electron acceleration, the acceleration of mass motions and current closure occur. The EMF becomes localized across regions where energy conversion occurs, and is involved in energy propagation between these regions.

description: Control region (CR) is a major non-coding domain of mitochondrial DNA in vertebrates which contains the promoters for replication and transcription of mitochondrial genome along with the binding sites for metabolic machinery and, hence, is a vital element for the integrity of mitochondrial genome as a biological replicator. The origin and diversity of structural elements within CR have been intensively studied in recent years with the involvement of new diverse taxa. In this paper, we provide new data on the nucleotide and structural patterns of CR evolution and phylogenetic suitability among eelpouts (Cottoidei: Zoarcales). To achieve this, we carried out a comparative phylogenetic and structural analysis of 29 CR sequences belonging to the long shanny Stichaeus grigorjewi together with nine sequences of other eelpouts taxa representing four families in contrast to mitochondrial protein-coding fragments. The CR organization within S. grigorjewi, as well as in all other eelpouts, is consistent with the common three-domain structure known from most vertebrates. We found a hidden CR variation constrains on the landscape level and a lack of nucleotide saturation. Finally, our results demonstrate the advantage of the length variation in CR sequences for phylogenetic reconstructions among eelpouts.

description: We propose a location-aware pilot allocation algorithm for a massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) network with high-mobility users, where the wireless channels are subject to Rician fading. Pilot allocation in massive MIMO is a hard combinatorial problem and depends on the locations of users. As such, it is highly complex to achieve the optimal pilot allocation in real-time for a network with high-mobility users. Against this background, we propose a low-complexity pilot allocation algorithm, which exploits the behavior of line-of-sight (LOS) interference among the users and allocate the same pilot sequence to the users with small LOS interference. Our examination demonstrates that our proposed algorithm significantly outperforms the existing algorithms, even with localization errors. Specifically, for the system considered in this work, our proposed algorithm provides up to 37.26% improvement in sum spectral efficiency (SE) and improves the sum SE of the worst interference-affected users by up to 2.57 bits/sec/Hz, as compared to the existing algorithms.

description: Optical observations of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2005bl in NGC 4070, obtained from -6 to +66 d with respect to the B-band maximum, are presented. The photometric evolution is characterised by rapidly-declining light curves and red colours at peak and soon thereafter. With M_B,max = -17.24 the SN is an underluminous SN Ia, similar to the peculiar SNe 1991bg and 1999by. This similarity also holds for the spectroscopic appearance, the only remarkable difference being the likely presence of carbon in pre-maximum spectra of SN 2005bl. A comparison study among underluminous SNe Ia is performed, based on a number of spectrophotometric parameters. Previously reported correlations of the light-curve decline rate with peak luminosity and R(Si) are confirmed, and a large range of post-maximum Si II lambda6355 velocity gradients is encountered. 1D synthetic spectra for SN 2005bl are presented, which confirm the presence of carbon and suggest an overall low burning efficiency with a significant amount of leftover unburned material. Also, the Fe content in pre-maximum spectra is very low, which may point to a low metallicity of the precursor. Implications for possible progenitor scenarios of underluminous SNe Ia are briefly discussed.

description: Interactions of noncommutative waves and solitons in 2+1 dimensions can be analyzed exactly for a supersymmetric and integrable U(n) chiral model extending the Ward model. Using the Moyal-deformed dressing method in an antichiral superspace, we construct explicit time-dependent solutions of its noncommutative field equations by iteratively solving linear equations. The approach is illustrated by presenting scattering configurations for two noncommutative U(2) plane waves and for two noncommutative U(2) solitons as well as by producing a noncommutative U(1) two-soliton bound state.

description: As approaches to water management begin to encompass broader social and environmental goals, new technical terms have entered the field of water management. Effective communication across professional disciplines, and with community stakeholders, is essential for sustainable urban water management. However, use of technical terminology has the potential to undermine effectiveness of communication. We surveyed professionals and community members to examine these issues. Findings indicate that water-related technical terms may not be well understood by the community. Professionals most likely to overestimate community understanding were influenced by their own understanding rather than experience with communities. For communities, individuals with poor topic knowledge or low education were less likely to seek information about terms, highlighting the importance of reducing reliance on technical terms when collaborating with diverse stakeholders.

Holotype (Orthostigma (Patrisaspilota) multicarinatum) Vietnam: • ♀, Bathuok, 125 km W of Thanh Hoa, prov. Thanh Hoa, 26. i. 1989 (B. Korotyaev leg.) (ZISP). Paratype (Orthostigma (Patrisaspilota) multicarinatum) Vietnam: • ♀, Vietnam, Tram Lap, 20 km N of Buon Luoi, prov. Gia Lai – Con Tum, 6. xii. 1988 (Sharkov leg.) (ZISP).
Diagnosis.
This subgenus shares the main characters of Orthostigma but has the notauli almost reaching the mesoscutal pit.
Remarks.
The four Oriental species of this subgenus share the almost completely developed notauli as in Dinotrema (Alitha). The notauli consist of a row of closely located large points more or less reaching the mesoscutal pit. The presence of such type of notauli in different genera of the subtribe Aspilotina (Orthostigma and Dinotrema) is obviously a parallelism and perhaps indicates the limited value of the character, viz., at least as subgeneric character.

The Recursive Prime Field Theory: A  Harmonic Foundation for Number Structure
Creators: name: Parry, dean Alan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: The Recursive Prime Field Theory (RPFT) is a bold and imaginative proposal for understanding the distribution and structure of prime numbers through recursive harmonic field dynamics. It introduces the idea that prime behavior may not be axiomatic, but instead emergent from spectral collapse, modular resonance, and fractal energy geometry. This preprint explores the alignment between recursive field behavior and known number-theoretic phenomena including the Riemann Hypothesis, twin primes, prime gaps, etc.

description: We used a data set from AKARI and Herschel images at wavelengths from 7 $μ$m to 500 $μ$m to catch the evidence of dust processing in galactic winds in NGC 1569. Images show a diffuse infrared (IR) emission extending from the galactic disk into the halo region. The most prominent filamentary structure seen in the diffuse IR emission is spatially in good agreement with the western H$α$ filament (western arm). The spatial distribution of the $F_\mathrm{350}/F_\mathrm{500}$ map shows high values in regions around the super-star clusters (SSCs) and towards the western arm, which are not found in the $F_\mathrm{250}/F_\mathrm{350}$ map. The color-color diagram of $F_\mathrm{250}/F_\mathrm{350}$-$F_\mathrm{350}/F_\mathrm{500}$ indicates high values of the emissivity power-law index ($β_\mathrm{c}$) of the cold dust component in those regions. From a spectral decomposition analysis on a pixel-by-pixel basis, a $β_\mathrm{c}$ map shows values ranging from $\sim1$ to $\sim2$ over the whole galaxy. In particular, high $β_\mathrm{c}$ values of $\sim2$ are only observed in the regions indicated by the color-color diagram. Since the average cold dust temperature in NGC 1569 is $\sim30$ K, $β_\mathrm{c}<2.0$ in the far-IR and sub-mm region theoretically suggests emission from amorphous grains, while $β_\mathrm{c}=2.0$ suggests that from crystal grains. Given that the enhanced $β_\mathrm{c}$ regions are spatially confined by the HI ridge that is considered to be a birthplace of the SSCs, the spatial coincidences may indicate that dust grains around the SSCs are grains of relatively high crystallinity injected by massive stars originating from starburst activities and that those grains are blown away along the HI ridge and thus the western arm.

description: Women with breast cancer experience many symptoms resulting from the primary disease and/ or the treatment of the disease. Psychoneuroimmunology, the theory of sickness behaviour and the action of cytokines may explain why the symptoms of fatigue, pain, depression and sleep disturbances are present and cluster. This study investigated symptoms, symptom clusters and cytokine activity pre-surgery, post-surgery and post adjuvant treatment using a prospective longitudinal cohort panel design. The study also examined the symptoms for clustering using Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA). Symptoms were examined in relation to cytokine activity using microarray technology to measure interleukins (1β, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8,10,12,13,17), TNF-a and IFN-y The final sample comprised of thirty women, ages ranging from 30-77 years. Levels of fatigue, pain and depression differed significantly between the time points. HCA found that the symptoms of fatigue, depression, pain and sleep disturbance formed distinct clusters differing on the level of the symptoms present in the cluster. Although all time points had 4 clusters as the optimal clustering solution, the levels of these symptoms within the clusters were dissimilar across the time points. Only IL-8 showed a statistically significant difference over time. IL-5 and IL-13 failed to show any relationships to symptoms at any time point. Pain severity was significantly associated with IL-4, IL-6, IL-17, IL-10 and IFN-y. Fatigue was found to be significantly associated with IL-2, IL-4, IL-6 and IL-10. Depression was found to be significantly associated with IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-a and IFN-y. Sleep disturbance was found to be significantly associated with IL-ip, IL-2, IL-10 and TNF-a. No significant relationships were identified between levels of cytokines and the symptom clusters. From a clinical perspective, this identification of distinct clusters at time points in the cancer journey is important as it highlights the need for thorough symptom assessment and management to alleviate these symptoms and thus enhance quality of life and levels of functioning. The relationships between symptoms and cytokines in women with breast cancer can be built on in further studies and may lead to the identification of biomarkers for symptoms in the future.

Advection-Dominated Accretion: A Self-Similar Solution

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We consider viscous rotating accretion flows in which most of the viscously dissipated energy is stored as entropy rather than being radiated. Such advection-dominated flows may occur when the optical depth is either very small or very large. We obtain a family of self-similar solutions where the temperature of the accreting gas is nearly virial and the flow is quasi-spherical. The gas rotates at much less than the Keplerian angular velocity; therefore, the central stars in such flows will cease to spin up long before they reach the break-up limit. Further, the Bernoulli parameter is positive, implying that advection-dominated flows are susceptible to producing outflows. Convection is likely in many of these flows and, if present, will tend to enhance the above effects. We suggest that advection-dominated accretion may provide an explanation for the slow spin rates of accreting stars and the widespread occurrence of outflows and jets in accreting systems.

Thermodynamic uncertainty relation of interacting oscillators in synchrony

description: The thermodynamic uncertainty relation sets the minimal bound of the cost-precision trade-off relation for dissipative processes. Examining the dynamics of an internally coupled system that is driven by a constant thermodynamic force, we however find that the trade-off relation of a sub-system is not constrained by the minimal bound of conventional uncertainty relation. We made our point explicit by using an exactly solvable model of interacting oscillators. As the number (N) of interacting oscillators increases, the uncertainty bound of individual oscillators is reduced to 2k_B T/N upon full synchronization under strong coupling. The cost-precision trade-off for the sub-system is particularly relevant for sub-cellular processes where collective dynamics emerges from multiple energy-expending components interacting with each other.

description: We calculate the leading preasymptotic correction to the inclusive width $b\rightarrow \bar c c s$ (two massive quarks in the final state) due to the operator $\vec σ\vec H$. It is found that this correction tends to cancel the $1/N_c$ part of the inclusive width calculated using naive factorization. The absolute value of the effect is of order 0.25. We also discuss how quark-hadron duality is realized in the inclusive decays.

A {\it Chandra} Survey of Milky Way Globular Clusters I: Emissivity and Abundance of Weak X-ray Sources

description: Based on archival {\it Chandra} data, we have carried out an X-ray survey of 69, or nearly half the known population of, Milky Way globular clusters (GCs), focusing on weak X-ray sources, mainly cataclysmic variables (CVs) and coronally active binaries (ABs). Using the cumulative X-ray luminosity per unit stellar mass (i.e., X-ray emissivity) as a proxy of the source abundance, we demonstrate a paucity (lower by $41\%\pm27\%$ on average) of weak X-ray sources in most GCs relative to the field, which is represented by the Solar neighborhood and Local Group dwarf elliptical galaxies. We also revisit the mutual correlations among the cumulative X-ray luminosity ($L_X$), cluster mass ($M$) and stellar encounter rate ($Γ$), finding $L_{X}\propto M^{0.74\pm 0.13}$, $L_{X}\proptoΓ^{0.67\pm0.07}$ and $Γ\propto M^{1.28 \pm 0.17}$. The three quantities can further be expressed as $L_{X} \propto M^{0.64\pm0.12}\ Γ^{0.19 \pm0.07}$, which indicates that the dynamical formation of CVs and ABs through stellar encounters in GCs is less dominant than previously suggested, and that the primordial formation channel has a substantial contribution. Taking these aspects together, we suggest that a large fraction of primordial, soft binaries have been disrupted in binary-single or binary-binary stellar interactions before they can otherwise evolve into X-ray-emitting close binaries, whereas the same interactions also have led to the formation of new close binaries. No significant correlations between $L_{X}/L_{K}$ and cluster properties, including dynamical age, metallicity and structural parameters, are found.

Reality Conditions in Nonperturbative Quantum Cosmology

description: We carry out the nonperturbative canonical quantization of several types of cosmological models that have already been studied in the geometrodynamic formulation using the complex path-integral approach. We establish a relation between the choices of complex contours in the path integral and the sets of reality conditions for which the metric representation is well defined, proving that the ambiguity in the selection of complex contours disappears when one imposes suitable reality conditions. In most of the cases, the wave functions defined by means of the path integral turn out to be non-normalizable and cannot be accepted as proper quantum states. Moreover, the wave functions of the Universe picked out in quantum cosmology by the no-boundary condition and the tunneling proposals do not belong, in general, to the Hilbert space of quantum states. Finally, we show that different sets of reality conditions can lead to equivalent quantum theories. This fact enables us to extract physical predictions corresponding to Lorentzian gravity from quantum theories constructed with other than Lorentzian reality conditions.
