description: We present optical, radio, and X-ray observations of SN2020bvc (=ASASSN20bs; ZTF20aalxlis), a nearby ($z=0.0252$; $d$=114 Mpc) broad-lined (BL) Type Ic supernova (SN). Our observations show that SN2020bvc shares several properties in common with the Ic-BL SN2006aj, which was associated with the low-luminosity gamma-ray burst (LLGRB) 060218. First, the 10 GHz radio light curve is on the faint end of LLGRB-SNe ($L_\mathrm{radio} \approx 10^{37}$erg/s): we model our VLA observations (spanning 13-43 d) as synchrotron emission from a mildly relativistic ($v \gtrsim 0.3c$) forward shock. Second, with Swift and Chandra we detect X-ray emission ($L_X \approx 10^{41}$erg/s) that is not naturally explained as inverse Compton emission or as part of the same synchrotron spectrum as the radio emission. Third, high-cadence ($6\times$/night) data from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) shows a double-peaked optical light curve, the first peak from shock-cooling emission from extended low-mass material (mass $M<10^{-2} M_\odot$ at radius $R>10^{12}$cm) and the second peak from the radioactive decay of Ni-56. SN2020bvc is the first confirmed double-peaked Ic-BL SN discovered without a GRB trigger, and shows X-ray and radio emission similar to LLGRB-SNe: this is consistent with models in which the same mechanism produces both the LLGRB and the shock-cooling emission. For four of the five other nearby ($z\lesssim0.05$) Ic-BL SNe with ZTF high-cadence data, we rule out a first peak like that seen in SN2006aj and SN2020bvc, i.e. that lasts $\approx 1$d and reaches a peak luminosity $M \approx -18$. X-ray and radio follow-up observations of future such events will establish whether double-peaked optical light curves are indeed predictive of LLGRB-like X-ray and radio emission.

description: In a very dynamic social environment, which includes a whole range of political, economic, cultural, and social changes, one can notice that, “today”, education is facing new requirements, which primarily result from the needs of the economy and production. The role of university is not only to create and transfer knowledge, but to integrate with the economy for future economic progress and social development. The subject of this paper is to analyze past and current cooperation between university and industry in the Republic of Serbia, based on official national and international statistics. Given that education in a society is assumption of dynamic economic and social development, the aim of this paper is to make a comprehensive analysis of the importance of cooperation between university and industry, and point to the need for continuous and institutionalized cooperation between university and industry, as a key factor for the future strategy of economic and social development of the Republic of Serbia.
title: Analysis of genotypic differences in biochemical and physiological adjustments to N-deficiency and drought stress in potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) with consideration of yield components

description: This work aimed at comprehensive phenotyping of starch potato cultivars in response to N-deficiency and drought stress at the morphological, physiological and biochemical level. For this purpose, 17 European potato cultivars were investigated in two years pot trials in a rain-out shelter with two N-levels and two water supply regimes. Additionally, a broad in vitro screening was performed to monitor specific traits under different N-levels in dependence of the genotype. Furthermore, out of these two contrasting genotypes were analysed in a proteomic approach to identify proteins associated with genotype specific responses to N-deficiency. With regard to tuber and starch yield cv. Tomba proved to be comparatively tolerant and cv. Kiebitz rather sensitive under both, N-deficiency and drought stress. Other cultivars responded differentially depending on the type of stress. Nitrogen use efficiency generally increased under N-deficiency. Water use efficiency decreased under limited water supply, but was increased by increased N-supply. Biochemical and physiological parameters of leaves were analysed at two time points during a drought stress phase. The proline content increased under drought, while the N-supply level had an effect on the speed and extent of its accumulation. The content of total soluble sugars increased at short-term drought and dropped back at long-term drought, which was more pronounced at higher N-supply. The leaf water potential decreased rapidly under drought, however, significant osmotic adjustment was not detected. Correlations of biochemical or physiological parameters to agronomic traits were too weak to serve as markers for abiotic stress tolerance. In vitro assays disclosed significant differences between cultivars in the ability to maintain biomass production, photosynthesis and N-metabolization under decreased N-supply. Furthermore, genotype dependent responses were detected regarding the root to shoot ratio, which was increased under N-deficiency in some specific cultivars. The proteomic analysis revealed that 21 % of the detected proteins differed in abundance between the sensitive and the tolerant genotype. In control and N-deficiency conditions 19.5 % were differentially accumulated in the sensitive and 15 % in the tolerant genotype. Out of a total of 106 differentially abundant proteins, only eight were detected in both genotypes, which were mainly associated with general stress response. In the tolerant genotype, the determined high chlorophyll content was associated with an increase of respective catabolic enzymes. In particular, rubisco activaseshowed interesting modulations in dependence of genotypes and N-levels. This dissertation was only published as a printed edition.

title: Should a Liberal State Ban the Burqa?
Creators: name: Robshaw, Brandon Glyn David
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2019

description: This thesis concerns the problem of whether a liberal state should – for liberal reasons – ban the wearing of the burqa in public. The core of the problem is that liberalism appears to pull in two opposed directions on this question. On the one hand, liberals strongly support religious tolerance and the burqa is seen by many, including most of those who wear it, as a religious commitment; and even if it is not a religious commitment it may still be a personal choice, and liberals strongly support enabling personal choice. On the other hand, liberals are committed to supporting equal rights and freedoms for both sexes, and the gender asymmetry of the burqa (women wear it, men don’t) combined with the fact that habitually covering one’s face in public is liable to cause disadvantages in personal, social and professional life, look like good reasons for opposing it; moreover liberals value personal autonomy, which may be compromised if the burqa is worn in response to cultural pressure. The issue thus exposes a tension within liberalism. A central element of my approach is the disentangling of a number of connected but separate strands of the problem. Thus I consider: different conceptions of liberalism and how they affect the response to the question; whether paternalism on grounds of welfare can be justified within liberalism and if so whether it would justify intervention in the specific case of the burqa; the value of personal autonomy within liberalism and whether a concern to safeguard or promote it could justify a burqa ban; the problem of adaptive preference and whether a socially influenced choice counts as a genuine preference; the role of multiculturalism in liberalism and to what extent it could justify exemptions; gender issues and feminism; the problem of coerced wearing of the burqa; and the problem of how likely it would be that a ban, even if justified in principle, would prove efficacious in achieving its end. The conclusion to the thesis is that banning the burqa in a liberal state is unlikely to be justified. It could not be justified in terms of the welfare or autonomy of the individual who voluntarily wears it. It could only be justified on the grounds of harm to others. It might, for example, theoretically be justified if coerced wearing of the burqa were widespread. This would be regrettable, however, as it would override the free choice of those who wore it voluntarily. Empirical evidence that such coercion was occurring would be necessary; and such a ban could only be justified if there were no other, equally efficacious and better targeted means of preventing coercion.
Simulation and Performance Analysis for Non-Hermitian Symmetry DCO-OFDM modulation in 100G-SWDM2 Datacenters Transmission System based OM3/OM4 Fibers

description: This paper investigates the performance of Non-Hermitian Symmetry (NHS) Direct-Current biased Optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM) in the context of 100G-SWDM (Short Wavelength Division Multiplexing) datacenters using OM3/OM4 fibers. OFDM is recognized for its robustness against optical fiber link distortion, while NHS exhibits low power consumption, leveraging its half computational complexity compared to Hermitian Symmetry in terms of optical OFDM modulator/demodulator. The study begins with a Bit Error Rate (BER) performance comparison between conventional DCO-OFDM and NRZ-OOK in a 100G-SWDM4 (25 Gb/s x 4) link. Based on the good distance transmission performed by DCO-OFDM, an implementation of NHS DCO-OFDM is realized in a 100G-SWDM2 (50 Gb/s x 2) architecture. The results, obtained through simulation with realistic component parameters, reveal that NHS DCO-OFDM, referred to as (new–DCO), achieves approximately four (04) to five (05) times the distance transmission allowed by NRZ-OOK in a 100G-SWDM4 link, depending on the use of OM3 or OM4 fibers. Additionally, the new–DCO demonstrates promising distance transmission capabilities of 370m for OM3 fiber and 650m for OM4 fiber in the simulated 100G-SWDM2 architecture. Consequently, the new–DCO emerges as a good candidate for datacenter transmission, surpassing current transmission distances demonstrated by SWDM alliance partners.

description: According to its significance, energy production is in the same group of activities like production of food and raw materials, and supply of necessary drinking water. The lagging in those forms of production has negative impact on economic growth and development of countries and regions as a whole. Therefore, the problems of development of energy sector cannot be observed as isolated from the development of overall social-economic development of a country, even out of context of development of international political and economic relations. In that light,energy security is one of the most pronounced risks in the modern world. Unlike the previous period when oil was predominantly considered the factor of energy security, nowadays, the discussion about the energy security takes into account energy sources as a whole. Due to the continuously growing demand for energy (resulting from increased economic activities and raising living standard), on the one hand, and the growing number of uncertainties of different origin that accompany production, transport, distribution, storage, and final energy consumption (environmental, technical, economic, political, security), on the other, energy security has become one of the most important global development goals.

description: Business Excellence Models (BEM) are frameworks developed to guide organizations into best practices that lead to sustained high performance. These models are internationally recognized as both providing a framework to assist the adoption of business excellence principles, and an effective way of measuring how thoroughly this adoption has been incorporated. There are several BEMs adopted by different countries. North America, Europe, Asia, South America and Australia have over the years implemented National BEMs. However, in Africa, various countries have established National and industry/sector based BEMs with minimal success. This is an exploratory study focusing on reviewing existing literature on the BEMs and identifying challenges that the African BEMs have faced. The paper also provides some practical recommendations that can be adopted to ensure success of the BEMs.

 A small­sized Manota.
 Male. Head. Flagellomere 4, Fig. 9C. Maxillary palpus with palpomere 3 bearing 4–5 apically expanded curved sensilla; palpomere 4 with parasegment. Thorax. Anepisternum setose. Anterior basalare non­setose. Preepisternum 2 setose. Laterotergite non­setose. Episternum 3 setose. Wing. Length 1.4–1.5 mm. Wing membrane dorsally with few setae on posterior margin. Sc distally of h non­setose. Setae indicating A1 not observed with certainty. Hypopygium (Figs. 9D, E; 10C). Sternite 9 large, extending posteriorly nearly to halfway along ventral length of gonocoxa, laterally sharply delimited, posterior margin indistinct, medially confluent with more posterior membranous part with transverse straight margin, setae similar to adjacent ventral setae of gonocoxa. Dorsomesial margin of gonocoxa simple, few stronger setae at apicomesial rounded corner, in position III 2 sigmoid or curved simple megasetae arising from common long basal body; gonocoxa apicolaterally with long, tapering, mesially setose, subtriangular lobe that does not extend posteriorly as far as apex of gonostylus. Gonostylus elongate curved quadrangular in outline, convex on lateral margin, concave on mesial margin, obliquely truncated on apical margin, at apicomesial angle on dorsal side with 2 transverse parallel rows of strong setae (Fig. 10C). Parastylar lobe present, directed anteriad, with 2 or 3 apical setae. Tegmen short and broad, subtriangular but with marked lateral shoulders. Setae on sternite 10 in single row or partly double row on each half, close to sides of apical part of tegmen.
Female and preimaginal stages unknown.
 Discussion
 Manota transversa is similar to M. procera and M. calcarata. For the distinguishing characters from M. calcarata, see under that species. Manota transversa and M. procera differ as follows: in M. transversa the gonostylus is narrower or less expanded at the apex, the dorsal setae at the apicomesial corner are in two short transverse rows, not in longitudinal rows or without clear arrangement, and the apicolateral lobe of the gonocoxa is short, posteriorly not extending to the level of the apex of the gonostylus as it does in M. procera. The difference in the shape of the apicolateral lobe of the gonocoxa between the two species (Figs. 9B, E) may also be significant.

description: In this article we investigate the principle and properties of a vertical passive seismic noise attenuator conceived for ground based gravitational wave interferometers. This mechanical attenuator based on a particular geometry of cantilever blades called monolithic geometric anti springs (MGAS) permits the design of mechanical harmonic oscillators with very low resonant frequency (below 100mHz). Here we address the theoretical description of the mechanical device, focusing on the most important quantities for the low frequency regime, on the distribution of internal stresses, and on the thermal stability. In order to obtain physical insight of the attenuator peculiarities, we devise some simplified models, rather than use the brute force of finite element analysis. Those models have been used to optimize the design of a seismic attenuation system prototype for LIGO advanced configurations and for the next generation of the TAMA interferometer.

description: In the last few years, there has been significant interest in understanding the stationary comparison version of the first law of black hole mechanics in the vielbein formulation of gravity. Several authors have pointed out that to discuss the first law in the vielbein formulation one must extend the Iyer-Wald Noether charge formalism appropriately. Jacobson and Mohd [arXiv:1507.01054] and Prabhu [arXiv:1511.00388] formulated such a generalisation for symmetry under combined spacetime diffeomorphisms and local Lorentz transformations. In this paper, we apply and appropriately adapt their formalism to four-dimensional gravity coupled to a Majorana field and to a Rarita-Schwinger field. We explore the first law of black hole mechanics and the construction of the Lorentz-diffeomorphism Noether charges in the presence of fermionic fields, relevant for simple supergravity.

title: Noble Gas Analysis of Volcanic Glass Particles: A Better Understanding of Volcano Degassing and Implications for Ar/Ar Dating of Eruptions
Creators: name: Cogliati, Simone
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2019

description: Noble Gases (NG) have been investigated extensively in a variety of volcanic materials, however, few efforts have been made to study their incorporation, partition and release to and from subaerial volcanic glass. In this study, 4He, 22Ne, 36Ar, 40Ar, trapped in different subaerial volcanic glass types, are used to characterize magmatic reservoirs, to study volcanic processes, to investigate the degassing and evolution of volcanic systems and to understand the implications for the Ar/Ar system.

 Glass shards from silicic tuffs interbedding basaltic lavas of the Columbia River Basalt Group (CRBG - Washington, U.S.) yielded accurate, precise Ar/Ar ages (12.00±0.242δ Ma, 11.37±0.152δ Ma, 10.67±0.212δ Ma, 10.70±0.182δ Ma, 10.77±0.182δ Ma). These were used to indirectly constrain better the timing of eruption of two Formations of the CRBG and to aid the correlation of the tuffs with their eruptive centre (Bruneau-Jarbidge) in the Central Snake River Plain.

 NG in Pele’s hairs and tears were used to monitor the degassing of Masaya volcano (Nicaragua) between 2015 - 2016. The variations of the NG in the samples were attributed to the upward migration of a gas-rich magma from depth in 2015. The NG abundances in single particles are controlled by sample vesicularity and by solubility and diffusion fractionation of the gas prior eruption.

 Pre-, syn- and post-eruptive processes interplay and superimpose upon each other, complicating the interpretation of Ar/Ar ages and NG abundances in pumice glass particles. The NG variations in glass particles from different portions of a pumice fall and an ignimbrite from the Eras Formation (Tenerife) are attributed to a “stratified” magma chamber with respect to NG, and, to diffusion fractionation processes that acted during pumice cooling. Glass particles failed to provide Ar/Ar ages and no relationships were observed between Ar degassing and Ar/Ar ages produced from different portions of the eruptive sequence.

description: In this work, we present a nonlinear dynamics perspective on generating and connecting gaits for energetically conservative models of legged systems. In particular, we show that the set of conservative gaits constitutes a connected space of locally defined 1D submanifolds in the gait space. These manifolds are coordinate-free parameterized by energy level. We present algorithms for identifying such families of gaits through the use of numerical continuation methods, generating sets and bifurcation points. To this end, we also introduce several details for the numerical implementation. Most importantly, we establish the necessary condition for the Delassus' matrix to preserve energy across impacts. An important application of our work is with simple models of legged locomotion that are often able to capture the complexity of legged locomotion with just a few degrees of freedom and a small number of physical parameters. We demonstrate the efficacy of our framework on a one-legged hopper with four degrees of freedom.

description: The orbital evolution and stability of planetary systems with interaction from the belts is studied using the standard phase-plane analysis. In addition to the fixed point which corresponds to the Keplerian orbit, there are other fixed points around the inner and outer edges of the belt. Our results show that for the planets, the probability to move stably around the inner edge is larger than the one to move around the outer edge. It is also interesting that there is a limit cycle of semi-attractor for a particular case. Applying our results to the Solar System, we find that our results could provide a natural mechanism to do the orbit rearrangement for the larger Kuiper Belt Objects and thus successfully explain the absence of these objects beyond 50 AU.

(Figs. 11D, E, F)
 A small­sized Manota.
 Male. Head. Flagellomere 4, Fig. 11D. Maxillary palpus with palpomere 3 bearing 4–5 apically expanded curved sensilla; palpomere 4 with parasegment. Thorax. Anepisternum setose. Anterior basalare non­setose. Preepisternum 2 setose. Laterotergite non­setose. Episternum 3 setose. Wing. Length 1.5–1.8 mm. Wing membrane dorsally with few setae at posterior margin. Sc distally of h non­setose. A1 indicated by few setae. Hypopygium (Figs. 11E, F). Sternite 9 large, extending posteriorly to halfway along ventral length of gonocoxa, laterally sharply delimited, posterior margin indistinct, confluent with more posterior membranous structures, setae similar to adjacent ventral setae of gonocoxa. The dorsomesial margin of gonocoxa apically strongly and sharply angled, with normal setae, in position III with 2 curved simple megasetae arising from common long basal body; gonocoxa apicolaterally with long, tapering, mesially setose, subtriangular lobe. Gonostylus elongate­oval in outline with wide lobe on mesial side, lobe dorsally on apical side with 2 oblique rows of strong setae. Parastylar lobe present, directed anteriad, with 2 apical setae. Tegmen rather short and broad, subtriangular with concave sides. Setae on sternite 10 in long row on each half, mostly posteriorly of apex of tegmen.
Female and preimaginal stages unknown.
 Discussion
 Manota acutangula is more or less similar to M. transversa, M. procera, M. calcarata, M. ferrata, and M. pectinata. It differs from all these by the acutely angulate dorsomesial corner of the gonocoxa and by having a broad lobe­like widening on the mesial side of the gonostylus. Manota acutangula also resembles M. orientalis but differs by having one large lobe mesially on the gonostylus instead of two small ones and by having the dorsomesial corner of the gonocoxa acutely angulate instead of having a narrow rectangular lobe (see Edwards 1928: Fig. 2a).

description: Management of climate via vegetation mainly focuses on the CO₂ sequestration activity of plants. Ecologists and Meteorologists so far agree thatvegetation has an impact on micro and meso climatic level. Settlement of new vegetation on bare steppe ground over thousands of square km createdwithin short time as seen in a “Great Green Wall” (GGW) – this still is a “new” engineering event, climatic evaluation of greening of entire regions isonly starting. Large scale vegetation in semi-arid areas may have a role as direct meso – and macro climatic factor, developing over decades. Discrepantresults are found in simulation models (afforestation related risk of heat in same or neighboring region) versus biophysical analysis of satellite data(warming effect of deforestation in dry climate). In trying to explain this discrepancy the reported effects of large scale afforestation in the Chinese GGWon regional and continental climate are reviewed, as reported for model regions sized a few thousand square km. Long term data showing a mitigatingeffect on wind, temperature and dryness, an important function of trees in breaking hot dry desert wind, a change to moderately humid climate and thecritical minimum density of tree cover are reported. Potential errors underlying the simulation models are being discussed. We derive that the first signsof a potential direct meso and macroclimatic effect of additional vegetation in dry semi-arid and arid areas may become visible in the Chinese GGW,which would mean a duplicate climate mitigating effect here. As more and more afforestation areas of this GGW are established this effect is expected todevelop in even larger regions during the next two decades.

description: We investigate the ground-state structures of dipolar spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates in a toroidal trap. Combined effects of dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on the ground states of the system are discussed. A ground-state phase diagram is obtained as a function of the SOC and DDI strengths. As two new degrees of freedom, the DDI and SOC can be used to obtain the desired ground-state phases and to control the phase transition between various ground states. In particular, the system displays exotic topological structures and spin textures, such as half-quantum vortex, vortex string, vortex necklace, complex vortex lattice including giant vortex and hidden antivortex chains, different skyrmions, meron (half-skyrmion)-antimeron (half-antiskyrmion) necklace, and composite meron-antimeron lattice.

Tachyonic Inflation in a Warped String Background

description: We analyze observational constraints on the parameter space of tachyonic inflation with a Gaussian potential and discuss some predictions of this scenario. As was shown by Kofman and Linde, it is extremely problematic to achieve the required range of parameters in conventional string compactifications. We investigate if the situation can be improved in more general compactifications with a warped metric and varying dilaton. The simplest examples are the warped throat geometries that arise in the vicinity of of a large number of space-filling D-branes. We find that the parameter range for inflation can be accommodated in the background of D6-branes wrapping a three-cycle in type IIA. We comment on the requirements that have to be met in order to realize this scenario in an explicit string compactification.

description: Dendritic cells (DCs) patrol tissues and transport antigens to lymph nodes to initiate adaptive immune responses. Within tissues, DCs constitute a complex cell population composed of distinct subsets that can exhibit different activation states and functions. How tissue-specific cues orchestrate DC diversification remains elusive. Here, we show that the small intestine included two pools of cDC2s originating from common pre-DC precursors: (1) lamina propria (LP) CD103+CD11b+ cDC2s that were mature-like proinflammatory cells and (2) intraepithelial cDC2s that exhibited an immature-like phenotype as well as tolerogenic properties. These phenotypes resulted from the action of food-derived retinoic acid (ATRA), which enhanced actomyosin contractility and promoted LP cDC2 transmigration into the epithelium. There, cDC2s were imprinted by environmental cues, including ATRA itself and the mucus component Muc2. Hence, by reaching distinct subtissular niches, DCs can exist as immature and mature cells within the same tissue, revealing an additional mechanism of DC functional diversification.

description: Compared with previous space-borne surveys, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) provides a unique and new approach to observe Solar System objects. While its primary mission avoids the vicinity of the ecliptic plane by approximately six degrees, the scale height of the Solar System debris disk is large enough to place various small body populations in the field-of-view. In this paper we present the first data release of photometric analysis of TESS observations of small Solar System Bodies, focusing on the bright end of the observed main-belt asteroid and Jovian Trojan populations. This data release, named TSSYS-DR1, contains 9912 light curves obtained and extracted in a homogeneous manner, and triples the number of bodies with unambiguous fundamental rotation characteristics, namely where accurate periods and amplitudes are both reported. Our catalogue clearly shows that the number of bodies with long rotation periods are definitely underestimated by all previous ground-based surveys, by at least an order of magnitude.

Dorsomesial margin of gonocoxa apically with long slightly angulate lobe with row of strong marginal setae, in position III with 2 curved simple megasetae arising from common long basal body; gonocoxa apicolaterally with long, tapering, mesially setose, subtriangular lobe. Gonostylus long, narrow, slightly curved in outline. Parastylar lobe present, narrow, without distinct apex, its 2 setae directed transversely mesiad. Tegmen rather short and broad, subtriangular with concave sides, with distinct shoulders. Setae on sternite 10 in row on each half, parallel to sides of apical part of tegmen.

 Discussion
 Manota pectinata is more or less similar to M. transversa, M. procera, M. calcarata, M. ferrata, and M. acutangula, especially to the latter species which it resembles by having a lobe on the dorsomesial angle of the gonocoxa. It differs from M. acutangula by having the gonocoxal lobe with a long edge armed with a comb­like row of setae; in M. acutangula the lobe is pointed and the setae are on its posterior margin. Manota pectinata also differs from M. acutangula by lacking the lobe on the mesial side of the gonostylus. Manota pectinata is also similar to M. orientalis but can be distinguished by lacking the two lobes mesially on the gonostylus that are present in that species (see Edwards 1928: Fig. 2a).
