description: Photometric redshifts (photo-z's) provide an alternative way to estimate the distances of large samples of galaxies and are therefore crucial to a large variety of cosmological problems. Among the various methods proposed over the years, supervised machine learning (ML) methods capable to interpolate the knowledge gained by means of spectroscopical data have proven to be very effective. METAPHOR (Machine-learning Estimation Tool for Accurate PHOtometric Redshifts) is a novel method designed to provide a reliable PDF (Probability density Function) of the error distribution of photometric redshifts predicted by ML methods. The method is implemented as a modular workflow, whose internal engine for photo-z estimation makes use of the MLPQNA neural network (Multi Layer Perceptron with Quasi Newton learning rule), with the possibility to easily replace the specific machine learning model chosen to predict photo-z's. After a short description of the software, we present a summary of results on public galaxy data (Sloan Digital Sky Survey - Data Release 9) and a comparison with a completely different method based on Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) template fitting.

description: A generalization of canonical quantization which maps a dynamical operator to a dynamical superoperator is suggested. Weyl quantization of dynamical operator, which cannot be represented as Poisson bracket with some function, is considered. The usual Weyl quantization of observables is a specific case of suggested quantization. This approach allows to define consistent quantization procedure for non-Hamiltonian and dissipative systems. Examples of the harmonic oscillator with friction (generalized Lorenz-Rossler-Leipnik-Newton equation), the Fokker-Planck-type system and Lorenz-type system are considered.

description: Stars with a wide range of masses provide a variety of production sites for intermediate-to-heavy mass elements. Very massive stars with mass $\geq 8 M_{\odot}$ culminate their evolution by supernova explosions which are presumed to be the most viable candidate astrophysical sites of r-process nucleosynthesis. If the models for the supernova r-process are correct, then nucleosynthesis results could also pose a significant constraint on the remnant of supernova explosions, $i.e.$ neutron star or black hole. In the case of very massive core collapse, a remnant stellar black hole is thought to be formed. Intense neutrino flux from the neutronized core and the neutrino sphere might suddenly cease during the Kelvin-Helmholtz cooling phase because of the black hole formation. It is interesting to explore observable consequences of such a neutrino flux truncation. Arguments have recently been given in the literature that even the neutrino mass may be determined from the time delay of deformed neutrino energy spectrum after the cease of neutrino ejection (neutrino cutoff effect). Here, we study the expected theoretical response of the r-process nucleosynthesis to the neutrino cutoff effect in order to look for another independent signature of this phenomenon. We found a sensitive response of the r-process yield if the neutrino cutoff occurs after the critical time when the expanding materials in the neutrino-driven wind drop out of the Nuclear Statistical Equilibrium (NSE). The r-process nucleosynthesis yields change maximally if the cutoff occurs during the r-process. Using this result, connected with future detection of the time-variation of SN neutrino spectrum, we are able to identify when the black hole formation occurs in the course of SN collapse.

ASPECTS OF COUNTERACTING THE INVOLVEMENT OF PRIVATE MILITARY COMPANIES IN ARMED AGGRESSION AGAINST UKRAINE
Creators: name: ORLOV, VIKTOR
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The understanding that the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine has been going on since February 20, 2014, and the hybrid war against our country has been going on since the Day of Declaration of its Independence, leads to the conclusion about the need for an early and inevitable bringing to international legal responsibility of the aggressor country. One of the means of hybrid warfare that Russia has been using on the territory of Ukraine since 2014 is private military companies (hereinafter - PMCs).The uncertain status of PMCs in international law has allowed the Russian Federation to commit war crimes and crimes against humanity on the territory of Ukraine with the "hands" of PMC "employees". Thus, on 23.12.2021, SBU investigators served in absentia a notice of suspicion to the head of the Russian PMC "Wagner" of committing an encroachment on the territorial integrity and inviolability of Ukraine, as well as waging an aggressive war of crimes (Part 3 of Art. 110, Part 5 of Art. 27, Part 2 of Art. 28, Part 2 of Art. 437 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine) [1]. But the customer of all crimes - Russia, headed by the highest military-political leadership, is currently impossible to bring to justice. The issue of bringing them to international legal responsibility for human rights violations is undoubtedly extremely urgent. To fulfill these tasks, it is necessary to create a single international body to control the activities of PMCs, whose powers should include: establishing unified rules for the creation and operation of PMCs; control over the activities and financing of PMCs; prohibition of the activities of private military companies in aggressor countries; liquidation of PMCs in case of their illegal activities. However, the main function of this institution should be to promptly and inevitably bring the aggressor country to international legal responsibility in case of using PMCs in hybrid wars and to ensure compensation for victims of human rights violations caused by PMCs.

description: (Abridged) We report on HST observations of the late-time afterglow and host galaxy of GRB021004 (z=2.33). Although this GRB is one of the best observed so far, there is substantial disagreement between different interpretations of data sets on this burst in the literature. We have observed the field of GRB021004 with the HST at multiple epochs from 3 days until almost 10 months after the burst. With STIS spectroscopy we cover the spectral region 600-1700AA in the restframe. From the limit on the flux recovery bluewards of the Lyman-limit we constrain the HI column density to be above 1x10^18 cm-2 Based on ACS and NICMOS imaging we find that the afterglow evolved achromatically within the errors. The color changes observed by other authors during the first four days must be related to a stochastic phenomenon superimposed on an afterglow component with a constant spectral shape. This achromaticity implies that the cooling break has remained on the blue side of the optical part of the spectrum for at least two weeks after the burst. The optical-to-X-ray slope is consistent with being the same at 1.4 and 52.4 days after the burst. This indicates that the cooling frequency is constant and hence, according to fireball models, that the circumburst medium has a constant density profile. The late-time slope of the lightcurve is in the range alpha_2 = 1.8-1.9, and is inconsistent with a single power-law. This could be due to a late-time flattening caused by the transition to non-relativistic expansion or due to excess emission (a lightcurve `bump') 7 days after burst. The host is a starburst galaxy with no evidence for dust and with strong Ly-alpha emission. The afterglow was located very close (~100 pc) to the center of the host suggesting that the progenitor was associated with a circumnuclear starburst.

title: NATO and the IFRC: A Comparative Case Study
Creators: name: Kosiak, Abigail
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2020

description: This research analyzes the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) Multinational Telemedicine System (MnTS) Project and works to answer five main questions:
1) What challenges did the NATO MnTS Project face that are directly related to the fact that the project included members from different countries and worked to create a system that operates across national borders?
2) How do these challenges compare to those faced by a non-governmental organization (NGO) like the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC)?
3) What successes has the IFRC had with its current operational model?
4) In what ways could the IFRC's operational model be applied to the NATO MnTS project moving forward?
5) With the above information, what strategic recommendations can be given to the NATO MnTS Project as it looks to reestablish its research program?
To answer these questions, I discussed experiential data from my time working on the MnTS Project and reviewed the award-winning NATO MnTS journal article "Development and Validation of Telemedicine for Disaster Response: The North Atlantic Treaty Organization Multinational System" and the book A Multinational Telemedicine Systems for Disaster Response: Opportunities and Challenges. I also completed an in-depth literature review to find information about challenges NGOs - specifically the IFRC - face. Employees from the MnTS Project were also interviewed to gain insight into the difficulty of creating, conducting, and maintaining international projects.
The information from the experiential data, the literature review, and the interviews was used to create strategic recommendations for the NATO MnTS Project. Applying and improving upon the practices of the IRCM can help the countries successfully restart and expand the NATO MnTS Project. The success of this project is important because a multinational telemedicine system can improve general access to health services and increase survival rates in emergency situations.

description: Traffic Control Devices (TCDs) are integral to driver-to-infrastructure (D2I) and vehicleto- infrastructure (V2I) interactions. The non-conformation (or non-perception) with signage on the part of the driver leads to several compounded safety problems. The need exists for a more robust, low-cost, and user-centric mechanism of delivering information to the driver that can directly bear on the safety of the driver. Technology has now advanced to the point where we can deliver information from a real-world physical environment to the driver in a non-invasive manner using holographic display [1]. With this rapid advancement in-vehicle display (IVD) technology, the transportation industry must undergo a transition period before entering the world of connected and autonomous vehicles. Here, the integration of IVD in vehicles will play major role. The advantage here is the level of flexibility and control offered by dynamic IVD which allows us to provide very specific traffic control information to the driver at situations and epochs deemed appropriate. The research questions will be focused on how such safety-critical traffic control information (and what specific information) can be delivered effectively to the driver using dynamic IVD without causing any form of distraction or engagement related problems. Vehicles exceeding the posted speed limit present an optimal application. In regards to the hierarchy of TCDs, there is an urgent need for drivers to comply to speed limits. According to NHTSA, 26% of traffic fatalities in 2017 resulted from crashes where at least one of drivers’ was speeding [2]. In addition to this, the act of unintentional speeding has been identified in research as the most frequent driving violation [3]. This forms the primary objective, which is to investigate the driver behavior and compliance to IVD speed alerts. This research investigates the characteristics of visual cues that minimize the drivers’ perception time without adding to the redundant visual clutter at the same time accounting the safety aspects required in a driving environment. This research endeavor evaluated drivers in a controlled environment using a full-scale driving simulator with active in-vehicle displays and eye-tracking equipment. The experiment investigated driving parameters such as head/eye movements, vehicle handling measures, task-engagement behaviors, and physiological parameters. Ultimately, the goal of this study was to understand driver sign compliance with the implementation of IVD in the driving simulator environment. The results were helpful to gain a better understanding of drivers’ responsiveness depending on the nature of the cue.

description: Solution methods for linear equation systems in a commutative ring are discussed. Four methods are compared, in the setting of several different rings: Dodgson's method [1], Bareiss's method [2] and two methods of the author - method by forward and back-up procedures [3] and a one-pass method [4]. We show that for the number of coefficient operations, or for the number of operations in the finite rings, or for modular computation in the polynomial rings the one-pass method [4] is the best. The method of forward and back-up procedures [3] is the best for the polynomial rings when we make use of classical algorithms for polynomial operations.

description: We have compiled a new sample of 240 halo objects with accurate distance and radial velocity measurements, including globular clusters, satellite galaxies, field blue horizontal branch stars and red giant stars from the Spaghetti survey. The new data lead to a significant increase in the number of known objects for Galactocentric radii beyond 50 kpc, which allows a reliable determination of the radial velocity dispersion profile out to very large distances. The radial velocity dispersion shows an almost constant value of 120 km/s out to 30 kpc and then continuously declines down to 50 km/s at about 120 kpc. This fall-off puts important constraints on the density profile and total mass of the dark matter halo of the Milky Way. For a constant velocity anisotropy, the isothermal profile is ruled out, while both a dark halo following a truncated flat model of mass $1.2^{+1.8}_{-0.5}\times 10^{12}$ M_sun and an NFW profile of mass $0.8^{+1.2}_{-0.2}\times 10^{12}$ M_sun and c=18 are consistent with the data. The significant increase in the number of tracers combined with the large extent of the region probed by these has allowed a more precise determination of the Milky Way mass in comparison to previous works. We also show how different assumptions for the velocity anisotropy affect the performance of the mass models.

To evaluate the impact of the design on the scientific objectives of the mission, a simulation software tool has been developed. This simulator builds on the development made for the PLATO space mission, and it is designed to generate synthetic time-series of images by including models of all important noise sources. In this article, we describe its design and performance. Moreover, its application to the detectability of important spectral features for star formation and exoplanetary research is addressed.

description: Boost invariance and multiplicity dependence of the charge balance function are studied in $π^{+}\rp$ and $\rK^{+}\rp$ collisions at 250 GeV/$c$ incident beam momentum. Charge balance, as well as charge fluctuations, are found to be boost invariant over the whole rapidity region, but both depend on the size of the rapidity window. It is also found that the balance function becomes narrower with increasing multiplicity, consistent with the narrowing of the balance function when centrality and/or system size increase, as observed in current relativistic heavy ion experiments.

description: We present an algorithm for synchronizing two clocks based on second-order quantum interference between entangled photons generated by parametric down-conversion. The procedure is distinct from the standard Einstein two-way clock synchronization method in that photon correlations are used to define simultaneous events in the frame of reference of a Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interferometer. Once the HOM interferometer is balanced, by use of an adjustable optical delay in one arm, arrival times of simultaneously generated photons are recorded by each clock. Classical information on the arrival times is sent from one clock to the other, and a correlation of arrival times is done to determine the clock offset.

Using Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopic data, we have measured its velocity relative to M31, its velocity dispersion, and its metallicity. It exhibits a significant velocity dispersion sigma_v = 6.8+3.0-2.0km/s, which coupled with the low luminosity implies a very high mass to V-band light ratio, M/L ~ 93+120-50msun/lsun (M/L > 17msun/lsun at 99% confidence). Unless strong tidal forces have perturbed this system, this smallest of galaxies is a highly dark matter dominated system.

description: We demonstrate an atomic interferometer in which the atom passes through a single-zone optical beam, consisting of a pair of bichromatic counter-propagating fields. During the passage, the atomic wave packets in two distinct internal states trace out split trajectories, guided by the optical beams, with the amplitude and spread of each wave-packet varying continuously, producing fringes that can reach a visibility close to unity. We show that the rotation sensitivity of this continuous interferometer (CI) can be comparable to that of the Borde-Chu Interferometer (BCI). The relative simplicity of the CI makes it a potentially better candidate for practical applications.

description: We present ALMA band 3 observations of the CO(6-5), CO(7-6), and [CI] 369micron emission lines in three of the highest redshift quasar host galaxies at 6.62", or >14kpc) CO emission in all three quasar hosts. In two sources, we detect the continuum emission around 400micron (rest-frame), and in one source we detect [CI] at low significance. We derive molecular gas reservoirs of (1-3)x10^10 M_sun in the quasar hosts, i.e. approximately only 10 times the mass of their central supermassive black holes. The extrapolated [CII]-to-CO(1-0) luminosity ratio is 2500-4200, consistent with measurements in galaxies at lower redshift. The detection of the [CI] line in one quasar host galaxy and the limit on the [CI] emission in the other two hosts enables a first characterization of the physical properties of the interstellar medium in z~7 quasar hosts. In the sources, the derived global CO/[CII]/[CI] line ratios are consistent with expectations from photodissociation regions (PDR), but not X-ray dominated regions (XDR). This suggest that quantities derived from the molecular gas and dust emission are related to ongoing star-formation activity in the quasar hosts, providing further evidence that the quasar hosts studied here harbor intense starbursts in addition to their active nucleus.

Genetically encoded voltage indicators (GEVIs) are becoming useful tool for this purpose. The goal of this thesis is the successful expression of the GEVI ArcLight by neurons of the CA1 region of the Hippocampus as well as the control of the neuron’s response after the application of electrical stimulation. The introduction of the ArcLight’s gene into the neurons was carried out after transfection with an AAV (Adeno Associated Virus) vector containing the gene, with the help of stereotactic surgery techniques. Subsequently, after electrical stimulation of ArcLight-expressing neurons, a visual signal was observed, which can be interpreted as a rapid depolarization of the neurons initially, followed by a slower wave of repolarization and finally their return to a resting state. The control of the successful expression as well as the response of neurons to electrode stimulation was performed by measuring the percentage change of the emitted fluorescence signal. The aforementioned experiments contribute to the deeper understanding of the function of distinct neuronal circuits and, by extension their functional connectivity within the brain.

A compact binary merger model for the short, hard GRB 050509b

description: The first X-ray afterglow for a short (~30 ms), hard gamma-ray burst was detected by Swift on 9 May 2005 (GRB 050509b). No optical or radio counterpart was identified in follow-up observations. The tentative association of the GRB with a nearby giant elliptical galaxy at redshift z=0.2248 would imply a total energy release E(gamma, isotropic) ~3 x 10**48 erg, and that the progenitor had traveled several tens of kpc from its point of origin, in agreement with expectations linking these events to the final merger of compact binaries driven by gravitational wave emission. We model the dynamical merger of such a system and the time-dependent evolution of the accretion tori thus created. The resulting energetics, variability, and expected durations are consistent with GRB 050509b originating from the tidal disruption of a neutron star by a stellar mass black hole, or of the merger of two neutron stars followed by prompt gravitational collapse of the massive remnant. We discuss how the available gamma-ray and X-ray data provide a probe for the nature of the relativistic ejecta and the surrounding medium.

description: This paper reviews both experimental and theoretical work on nanostructures showing high quantum yields due to the phenomenon of multiple exciton generation. It outlines the aims and barriers to progress in identifying further such nanostructures, and also includes developments concerning solar devices where nanostructures act as the light-absorbing component. It reports on both semiconductor and carbon structures, both monocomposite (of various dimensionalities) and heterogeneous. Finally, it looks at future directions that can be taken to push solar cell efficiency above the classic limit set by Shockley and Queissier in 1961.

The (im)possible coherence? Science-Policy, Blockages and Transformation

description: FACCE-JPI and HDHL organized a thematic workshop titled "The (im)possible coherence? – Science-Policy, Blockages, and Transformation" in Brussels on November 27th, 2023. The workshop spanning a full day, targeted an audience comprising policymakers, HDHL and FACCE-JPI’s MB (Management Board) and GB (Governing Board) members, respectively, along with researchers focusing on policies in food production, processing, nutrition, health, and climate change. The workshop aimed to explore the challenge of policy coherence in the transition towards a more sustainable and healthy food system in Europe, from science through to implementation. Food systems, inherently complex and interwoven, present diverse blockages. Despite advancements across scientific disciplines, the puzzle of achieving policy coherence in the transition of food systems persists. This workshop posed a fundamental question: What prerequisites are needed for better coherence between science and policies to transform the food system? Participants were prompted to reflect on factors contributing to incoherence within the science-policy interface allowing for a transformation of the European food system. This report summarizes what was discussed at the workshop.

description: In July of 2017, the Boston Globe published an article titled “Driving Through These Towns in Mass.? Watch Your Speed” [1] that among other elements, included a series of maps and a brief summary identifying Massachusetts municipalities that had the most traffic violations issued between 2010 and 2016. The article stated that the Massachusetts State Police issued the most citations of any police agency in the state, and that many citations were given along major highways, especially Interstate 90 and major highways and routes that intersect it, such as Interstate 84 and Route 20. Despite the public attention-grabbing nature of the article, and the implication that traffic citations are being used as a mechanism of revenue generation, the article stops short of discussing the different types of citations, or the resulting roadway safety trends in those same areas.
Automated Coronal Hole Identification via Multi-Thermal Intensity Segmentation

description: Coronal holes (CH) are regions of open magnetic fields that appear as dark areas in the solar corona due to their low density and temperature compared to the surrounding quiet corona. To date, accurate identification and segmentation of CHs has been a difficult task due to their comparable intensity to local quiet Sun regions. Current segmentation methods typically rely on the use of single EUV passband and magnetogram images to extract CH information. Here, the Coronal Hole Identification via Multi-thermal Emission Recognition Algorithm (CHIMERA) is described, which analyses multi-thermal images from the Atmospheric Image Assembly (AIA) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) to segment coronal hole boundaries by their intensity ratio across three passbands (171 Å, 193 Å, and 211 Å). The algorithm allows accurate extraction of CH boundaries and many of their properties, such as area, position, latitudinal and longitudinal width, and magnetic polarity of segmented CHs. From these properties, a clear linear relationship was identified between the duration of geomagnetic storms and coronal hole areas. CHIMERA can therefore form the basis of more accurate forecasting of the start and duration of geomagnetic storms.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The entropy properties are analyzed by Ma's coincidence method in $π^{+}\rp$ and $\rK^{+}\rp$ collisions of the NA22 experiment at 250 GeV/$c$ incident momentum. By using the Rényi entropies, we test the scaling law and additivity properties in rapidity space. The behavior of the Rényi entropies as a function of the average number of particles is investigated. The results are compared with those from the {\sc Pythia} Monte Carlo event generator.
