description: The necessity for better journalistic training and education, as well as more resources for journalists: Journalists should be permitted to report without drawing on sensationalist stereotypes, should be allowed to operate more freely in their field of work and should be relieved from their job-related restrictions. This can only be achieved if their superiors, for example their editors-in-chief are included in such training. If journalists and editors have a broader general knowledge and more balanced views on the topics, coverage will be more objective and closer to reality. More financial resources and time must be provided to the journalists to allow for in-depth reporting rather than event-oriented news.
 A closer adherence to journalistic standards and a global harmonisation of such standards: The guidelines for professional, or more specifically, conflict sensitive journalism, must be upheld and the adherence to such guidelines rewarded. The advantages of conflict sensitive journalism must be signalled not only to journalists, but also to media executives and managers, and perhaps most importantly, to audiences. Only if every party involved learns to appreciate the assets of professional journalism, can more balance be achieved in reporting.
 The necessity to deconstruct distorted narratives that exist within the public discourse: As coverage of the migratory movements during the Arab Spring have shown, the images conveyed by a large part of the media are distorted, and are charged with biased narratives that lead to a misguiding discourse. This produces “myths of migration” which are reproduced over and over and can exacerbate the real-life situation of migrants. Hence it can be gathered that the supposed system of checks and balances between the media, politics and academia is failing. This failure becomes especially clear where events in the Islamic world are concerned. In order to achieve more objective and balanced reporting, the above-mentioned recommendations should be followed, and reporting needs to include voices from the Arab world. Experts from respective conflict regions or subject areas must be included, even if they do not necessarily fit into the Western framework. Migrants and people from migrant backgrounds must be given the opportunity to play a larger role in key areas of society, especially in the media. There is a shared responsibility shouldered by politics, the media and academia to allow greater diversity and inclusion in our society.

description: We examine the power spectrum of the energy level fluctuations of a family of critical power-law random banded matrices with properties similar to those of a disordered conductor at the Anderson transition. It is shown both analytically and numerically that the Anderson transition is characterized by a power spectrum which presents $1/f^2$ noise for small frequencies but $1/f$ noise for larger frequencies. The analysis of the transition region between these two power-law limits gives an accurate estimation of the Thouless energy of the system. Finally we discuss under what circumstances these findings may be relevant in the context of non-random Hamiltonians.

description: In laboratory studies and numerical simulations, we observe clear signatures of unstable time-periodic solutions in a moderately turbulent quasi-two-dimensional flow. We validate the dynamical relevance of such solutions by demonstrating that turbulent flows in both experiment and numerics transiently display time-periodic dynamics when they shadow unstable periodic orbits (UPOs). We show that UPOs we computed are also statistically significant, with turbulent flows spending a sizable fraction of the total time near these solutions. As a result, the average rates of energy input and dissipation for the turbulent flow and frequently visited UPOs differ only by a few percent.

description: The economic impact of red tide events were examined for three Southwest Florida waterfront restaurants. Daily gross sales from January 1996 through September were analyzed using a multiple regression time series model to examine whether the presence of a red tide, as measured within three and six miles of the beach, reduced sales revenues. Preliminary results indicate that red tide blooms closer to shore had a significantly large negative influence on sales revenues across restaurant locations.

Two successive incommensurate phases are found to exist in zero field. The appearance, for H >= 4.6 T at T = 2 K, of an antiferromagnetic structure, k{AF} = (1/2, 1/2, 1/2), most likely due to an underlying antiferroquadrupolar order, is discussed in connection with recent x-ray diffraction experiments.

description: We present an overview and description of the eMERLIN Galaxy Evolution survey (eMERGE) Data Release 1 (DR1), a large program of high-resolution 1.5 GHz radio observations of the GOODS-N field comprising $\sim140$ hours of observations with eMERLIN and $\sim40$ hours with the Very Large Array (VLA). We combine the long baselines of eMERLIN (providing high angular resolution) with the relatively closely-packed antennas of the VLA (providing excellent surface brightness sensitivity) to produce a deep 1.5 GHz radio survey with the sensitivity ($\sim 1.5μ$Jy beam$^{-1}$), angular resolution ($0.2"$--$0.7"$) and field-of-view ($\sim15' \times 15'$) to detect and spatially resolve star-forming galaxies and AGN at $z\gtrsim 1$. The goal of eMERGE is to provide new constraints on the deep, sub-arcsecond radio sky which will be surveyed by SKA1-mid. In this initial publication, we discuss our data analysis techniques, including steps taken to model in-beam source variability over a $\sim20$ year baseline and the development of new point spread function/primary beam models to seamlessly merge eMERLIN and VLA data in the $uv$ plane. We present early science results, including measurements of the luminosities and/or linear sizes of $\sim500$ galaxes selected at 1.5 GHz. In combination with deep Hubble Space Telescope observations, we measure a mean radio-to-optical size ratio of $r_{\rm eMERGE}/r_{\rm HST}\sim1.02\pm0.03$, suggesting that in most high-redshift galaxies, the $\sim$GHz continuum emission traces the stellar light seen in optical imaging. This is the first in a series of papers which will explore the $\sim$kpc-scale radio properties of star-forming galaxies and AGN in the GOODS-N field observed by eMERGE DR1.

description: In this paper we study root system generalizations of the quantum Bose-gas on the circle with pair-wise delta function interactions. The underlying symmetry structures are shown to be governed by the associated graded of Cherednik's (suitably filtered) degenerate double affine Hecke algebra, acting by Dunkl-type differential-reflection operators. We use Gutkin's generalization of the equivalence between the impenetrable Bose-gas and the free Fermi-gas to derive the Bethe ansatz equations and the Bethe ansatz eigenfunctions.

description: the immune system is one of the most complex autonomous regulatory systems of the body, therefore, violation of its functionality leads to serious complications of an autoimmune and infectious nature. “In this regard, in recent years, the issues of maintaining homeostasis in the immune system have become especially relevant.”The protection of a living organism cannot be imagined without an immune system. In humans and animals, the immune system provides the body's flexibility and protection against the effects of various pathogenic factors. In recent years, there has been an increase in diseases associated with damage to the immune system in the world". Currently, the degree of the body's immune reactivity undoubtedly determines the course and consequences of most diseases.
Fine granularity access in interactive compression of 360-degree images based on rate-adaptive channel codes

description: In this paper, we propose a new interactive compression scheme for omnidirectional images. This requires two characteristics: efficient compression of data, to lower the storage cost, and random access ability to extract part of the compressed stream requested by the user (for reducing the transmission rate). For efficient compression, data needs to be predicted by a series of references that have been pre-defined and compressed. This contrasts with the spirit of random accessibility. We propose a solution for this problem based on incremental codes implemented by rate-adaptive channel codes. This scheme encodes the image while adapting to any user request and leads to an efficient coding that is flexible in extracting data depending on the available information at the decoder. Therefore, only the information that is needed to be displayed at the user's side is transmitted during the user's request, as if the request was already known at the encoder. The experimental results demonstrate that our coder obtains a better transmission rate than the state-of-the-art tile-based methods at a small cost in storage. Moreover, the transmission rate grows gradually with the size of the request and avoids a staircase effect, which shows the perfect suitability of our coder for interactive transmission.

 Previous records from Sumatra
North Sumatra Province: Balige and Toba highlands (both next to Lake Toba) (van Strien, 1996).
 Remarks
 This is the largest Miniopterus species in our survey area (Table 2). The skin on the face and the tragus is dark brown. Comparing with known Miniopterus species in the Sunda shelf, the forearm length, body mass, and tibia length of the bat overlapped largely with M. magnater but were larger than all other Miniopterus species (Table 4). Thus, we assign our samples to M. magnater. Individuals were found roosting with Miniopterus australis, M. pusillus, R. lepidus / pusillus, and Myotis horsfieldii in cave Gambir 2 of Way Canguk Forest and with H. larvatus in Sridadi cave. Individuals were also captured in lowland coffee plantations as well as over the Way Pemerihan River. Our capture extends its distribution from northern Sumatra to the south.

Auf zahlreichen Konferenzen diskutieren Experten aus Europa die Frage, wie Europa in der Welt gesehen werden soll und vertreten oft kontroverse Ansichten dazu, was Europa ist. Die Konzentration auf das Selbstbild Europas ist ein wichtiger Aspekt, wenn es darum geht Europas Außenkulturbeziehungen zu gestalten. Jedoch bildet es nur eine Seite der Medaille ab.
 Was denken Kulturakteure außerhalb Europas über Europa? Haben sie ähnliche Wahrnehmungen von Europa wie Europa von sich selbst? Welche Erwartungen haben sie an Europa und an seine auswärtige Kulturpolitik? Im Rahmen des Arbeitsschwerpunkts „Europa“ im ifa-Forschungsprogramm „Kultur und Außenpolitik“ wurde dieser Aspekt untersucht. Die verschiedenen Sichtweisen von Kulturakteuren aus Asien und Afrika auf Europa wurden im Dezember 2012 auf der vom Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen veranstalteten Konferenz „European External Cultural Relations: Expectations from the Outside“ vorgestellt und diskutiert. Sie relationierten das oftmals von großem Selbstbewusstsein geprägte Selbstbild Europas.

description: Training machine learning models on classical computers is usually a time and compute intensive process. With Moore's law coming to an end and ever increasing demand for large-scale data analysis using machine learning, we must leverage non-conventional computing paradigms like quantum computing to train machine learning models efficiently. Adiabatic quantum computers like the D-Wave 2000Q can approximately solve NP-hard optimization problems, such as the quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO), faster than classical computers. Since many machine learning problems are also NP-hard, we believe adiabatic quantum computers might be instrumental in training machine learning models efficiently in the post Moore's law era. In order to solve a problem on adiabatic quantum computers, it must be formulated as a QUBO problem, which is a challenging task in itself. In this paper, we formulate the training problems of three machine learning models---linear regression, support vector machine (SVM) and equal-sized k-means clustering---as QUBO problems so that they can be trained on adiabatic quantum computers efficiently. We also analyze the time and space complexities of our formulations and compare them to the state-of-the-art classical algorithms for training these machine learning models. We show that the time and space complexities of our formulations are better (in the case of SVM and equal-sized k-means clustering) or equivalent (in case of linear regression) to their classical counterparts.

description: Optical microcavities confine light spatially and temporally and find application in a wide range of fundamental and applied studies. In many areas, the microcavity figure of merit is not only determined by photon lifetime (or the equivalent quality-factor, Q), but also by simultaneous achievement of small mode volume V . Here we demonstrate ultra-high Q-factor small mode volume toroid microcavities on-a-chip, which exhibit a Q/V factor of more than $10^{6}(λ/n)^{-3}$. These values are the highest reported to date for any chip-based microcavity. A corresponding Purcell factor in excess of 200 000 and a cavity finesse of $2.8\times10^{6}$ is achieved, demonstrating that toroid microcavities are promising candidates for studies of the Purcell effect, cavity QED or biochemical sensing

Semi-inclusive hadronic B decays as null tests of the Standard Model

description: We propose a new set of observables that can be used as experimental null tests of the Standard Model in charged and neutral B decays. The CP asymmetries in hadronic decays of charged B mesons into inclusive final states containing at least one of the following mesons: K_{S,L}, eta', c\bar c bound states or neutral K^* or D mesons, for all of which a U-spin rotation is equivalent to a CP conjugation, are CKM suppressed and furthermore vanish in the exact U-spin limit. We show how this reduces the theoretical error by using Soft Collinear Effective Theory to calculate the CP asymmetries for K_{S,L} X_{s+d}, K^* X_{s+d} and eta' X_{s+d} final states in the endpoint region. For these CP asymmetries only the flavor and not the charge of the decaying B meson needs to be tagged up to corrections of NLO in 1/m_b, making the measurements more accessible experimentally.

description: A rotating pulsar creates a surrounding pulsar wind nebula (PWN) by steadily releasing an energetic wind into the interior of the expanding shockwave of supernova remnant or interstellar medium. At the termination shock of a PWN, the Poynting-flux-dominated relativistic striped wind is compressed. Magnetic reconnection is driven by the compression and converts magnetic energy into particle kinetic energy and accelerating particles to high energies. We carrying out particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations to study the shock structure as well as the energy conversion and particle acceleration mechanism. By analyzing particle trajectories, we find that many particles are accelerated by Fermi-type mechanism. The maximum energy for electrons and positrons can reach hundreds of TeV.

 New records
Lampung Province: Sumber Rejo Village, Way Canguk Forest.
 Previous records from Sumatra
 North Sumatra Province: a cave near Penerukan (Whitten et al., 2000); caves near Bohorok (van Strien, 1996).
 New material
One individual was collected as a voucher specimen. Lampung Province: Way Canguk Forest, 1♀ (MZB 35821).
 Remarks
 This is a medium-sized Miniopterus species. All individuals were captured in or near the Gimbar 2 cave within Way Canguk Forest, except one individual from Sumber Rejo Village. The skin on the face is dark brown and the tragus is pale white to grayish brown. It can be distinguished from M. australis by the larger size and skin coloration of the face and from M. magnater by the smaller body size (Table 2) in our study area. Comparing with other known Miniopterus species on the Sunda Shelf, its forearm length falls into the range of M. pusillus and M. medius, and partially overlaps with M. fuliginosus. It has a similar body mass range to M. pusillus, overlaps partially with M. medius, and lighter than M. fuliginosus. Its tibia length overlaps partially with M. pusillus, falls into the range of M. fuliginosus, and is longer than in M. medius (Table 4). Despite its slightly larger tibia length, we tentatively assign this bat as M. pusillus based upon its forearm length and body mass. Further comparison of craniodental characters and genetic analyses are necessary to confirm the identification of this species.

Powering Central Compact Objects with a Tangled Crustal Magnetic Field

description: Central Compact Objects (CCOs) are X-ray sources with luminosity ranging between $10^{32}$-$10^{34}$ erg~s$^{-1}$, located at the centres of supernova remnants. Some of them have been confirmed to be neutron stars. Timing observations have allowed the estimation of their dipole magnetic field, placing them in the range $\sim10^{10}$-$10^{11}$ G. The decay of their weak dipole fields, mediated by the Hall effect and Ohmic dissipation, cannot provide sufficient thermal energy to power their X-ray luminosity, as opposed to magnetars whose X-ray luminosities are comparable. Motivated by the question of producing high X-ray power through magnetic field decay while maintaining a weak dipole field, we explore the evolution of a crustal magnetic field that does not consist of an ordered axisymmetric structure, but rather comprises a tangled configuration. This can be the outcome of a non-self-excited dynamo, buried inside the crust by fallback material following the supernova explosion. We find that such initial conditions lead to the emergence of the magnetic field from the surface of the star and the formation of a dipolar magnetic field component. An internal tangled magnetic field of the order of $10^{14}$ G can provide sufficient Ohmic heating to the crust and power CCOs, while the dipole field it forms is approximately $10^{10}$ G, as observed in CCOs.

description: We illustrate the use of effective theory techniques to describe processes involving unstable particles close to resonance. First, we present the main ideas in the context of a scalar resonance in an Abelian gauge-Yukawa model. We then outline the necessary modifications to describe W-pair production close to threshold in electron-positron collisions.

Functional dissection of the Drosophila melanogaster bithoraxoid Polycomb response element
Creators: name: Argiropoulos, Bob
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: During the development of Drosophila melanogaster, the Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins act through complex, modular elements termed Polycomb response elements (PREs) to maintain the silent state of the homeotic and other loci. The bithoraxoid (bxd) 5.1 PRE of the homeotic gene Ultrabithorax (Ubx) is capable of maintaining the correct Ubx expression pattern throughout embryogenesis in a PcG-dependent manner. The bxd5.l PRE is also capable of conferring pairing-sensitive repression to the mini-white gene located in the same transposon. In order to understand how PcG proteins are recruited to PREs, a gel mobility shift assay was used to identify four fragments within the bxd5.l PRE that bind protein complexes from nuclear extracts that contain the PcG protein Polyhomeotic (PH). Chapter 2 of this thesis examines the in vivo contribution of these four PH binding sites in embryonic silencing and pairing-sensitive repression. I show, using a germline transformation assay, that deletion of each PH binding site, in the context of bxd5.\, disrupts embryonic PRE activity but not pairing-sensitive repression. Double mutant analysis of sites with related binding activities indicate that sites MHS-70 and MPA-168 constitute one functional unit of PRE activity, which is disabled by either mutation. By contrast, sites MHN-90 and S1HB-90 act synergistically to promote PRE activity. Furthermore, mutation of two d(GA)3 repeat elements within MHS-70 destabilizes PH complex formation in vitro and partially abrogates PRE activity in vivo indicating that these repeat elements are essential for PRE-mediated silencing. Chapter 3 of this thesis explores the modular structure of the core maintenance element within bxd5.l, the bxd\.5 PRE. The results indicate that the bxdl.5 PRE is a complex element built up of at least three modules, UPS, PSR and DPS, that make distinct contributions to silencing by the bxd PRE. The UPS and DPS modules directly repress the Ubx promoter in a parasegment-specific and developmental stage-specific manner. The PSR and DPS modules are capable of pairing-sensitive repression. Genetic analyses reveal that each module depends on the function of a subset of PcG and trxG genes that are required specifically for embryonic or pairing-sensitive repression or for both processes. The results clearly demonstrate that embryonic and pairing-sensitive repression are separable functions of the bxdl .5 PRE. Taken together, these studies provide insight into how the bxd PRE is built and into the nature of the functional components that read and interpret the information encoded by this complex cis-regulatory element.
Inclusive Hadronic Distributions Inside One Jet at High Energy Colliders at "Modified Leading Logarithmic Approximation" of Quantum Chromodynamics

description: After demonstrating their general expressions valid at all x, double differential 1-particle inclusive distributions inside a quark and a gluon jet produced in a hard process, together with the inclusive k-transverse distributions, are calculated at small x in the Modified Leading Logarithmic Approximation (MLLA), as functions of the transverse momentum of the outgoing hadron. Results are compared with the Double Logarithmic Approximation (DLA) and a naive DLA-inspired evaluation; sizable corrections are exhibited which, associated with the requirement to stay in a perturbative regime, set the limits of the interval where our calculations can be trusted. We give predications for the LHC and Tevatron colliders.
description: LaTex, 36 pages, 54 figures .eps + 1 logo .ps. A detailed discussion on the reliability of MLLA calculations has been added, together with predications for LEP and Tevatron.

description: The operation of an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) under predictable receiver mobility is investigated. We develop a continuous time system model for multipath channels and discuss the optimal IRS configuration with respect to received power, Doppler spread, and delay spread. It is shown that the received power can be maximized without adding Doppler spread to the system. In a numerical case study, we show that an IRS having the size of just two large billboards can improve the link budget of ground to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite links by up to 6 dB. It also adds a second, almost equivalently strong, communication path that improves the link reliability.

Poincare Duality and G+++ algebra's

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Theories with General Relativity as a sub-sector exhibit enhanced symmetries upon dimensional reduction, which is suggestive of ``exotic dualities''. Upon inclusion of time-like directions in the reductions one can dualize to theories in different space-time signatures. We clarify the nature of these dualities and show that they are well captured by the properties of infinite-dimensional symmetry algebra's (G+++ algebra's), but only after taking into account that the realization of Poincare duality leads to restrictions on the denominator subalgebra appearing in the non-linear realization. The correct realization of Poincare duality can be encoded in a simple algebraic constraint, that is invariant under the Weyl-group of the G+++ algebra, and therefore independent of the detailed realization of the theory under consideration. We also construct other Weyl-invariant quantities that can be used to extract information from the G+++ algebra without fixing a level decomposition.
