description: Transiting ultra-hot Jupiters are ideal candidates to study the exoplanet atmospheres and their dynamics, particularly by means of high-resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio spectra. One such object is KELT-20b, orbiting the fast rotating A2-type star KELT-20. Many atomic species have already been found in its atmosphere, with blueshifted signals that hints at the presence of a day-to-night side wind. We aimed to observe the atmospheric Rossiter-McLaughlin effect in the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-20b, and to study any variation of the atmospheric signal during the transit. For this purpose, we analysed five nights of HARPS-N spectra covering five transits of KELT-20b. We computed the mean line profiles of the spectra with a least-squares deconvolution, and then we extracted the stellar radial velocities by fitting them with a rotational broadening profile in order to obtain the radial velocity time-series. We used the mean line profile residuals tomography to analyse the planetary atmospheric signal and its variations. We also used the cross-correlation method to study an already known double-peak feature in the FeI planetary signal. We observed both the classical and the atmospheric Rossiter-McLaughlin effect in the radial velocity time-series. The latter gave us an estimate of the radius of the planetary atmosphere that correlates with the stellar mask used in our work: R(p+atmo)/Rp = 1.13 +/- 0.02). We isolated the planetary atmospheric trace in the tomography, and we found radial velocity variations of the planetary atmospheric signal during transit with an overall blueshift of approximatively 10 km/s, along with small variations in the signal's depth and, less significant, in the full width at half maximum (FWHM). We also find a possible variation in the structure and position of FeI signal in different transits.

description: Gravitational wave observations of compact binaries allow us to test general relativity (and modifications thereof) in the strong and highly-dynamical field regime of gravity. Here we confront two extensions to general relativity, dynamical Chern-Simons and Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet theories, against the gravitational wave sources from the GWTC-1 and GWTC-2 catalogs by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration. By stacking the posterior of individual events, we strengthen the constraint on the square root of the coupling parameter in Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity to $\sqrt{α_{\rm \tiny EdGB}} < 1.7$ km, but we are unable to place meaningful constraints on dynamical Chern-Simons gravity. Importantly, we also show that our bounds are robust to (i) the choice of general-relativity base waveform model, upon which we add modifications, (ii) unknown higher post-Newtonian order terms in the modifications to general relativity, (iii) the small-coupling approximation, and (iv) uncertainties on the nature of the constituent compact objects.

description: The European project RE-InVEST re-assesses the role of active labour market and social protection policy for integrating vulnerable groups from a social investment perspective that the EU endorsed as a response to the financial crisis. The Austrian part of RE-InVEST used peer research to investigate the nature and effect of relevant policies concerning unemployed persons aged 45 or older. This report analyses active labour market policies for older unemployed in Salzburg, Austria, namely (1) the counselling services and qualification measures offered by the PES and (2) the employment initiative (‘Beschäftigungsinitiative 50+’), comprising additional funding for wage subsidies (settling-in allowances and combined wages) and social enterprises. The qualitative research addresses the question if these measures comply with the social invest­ment perspective from a human rights and capability approach.

The findings are nuanced and mixed. All analysed measures have the potential to strengthen or weaken human rights and capabilities of vulnerable groups, depending on the specific policy design and implemen­tation as well as the economic and social environment. Participation, agency and choice are comparably weak features of these policies and therefore depend a lot on the persons involved on the ground. Though activation is a goal, policies towards older unemployed are, in contrast to measures for other target groups, not guided by social investment in general.

description: Pancharatnam-based achromatic half-wave plates (AHWP) achieve high polarization efficiency over a broad waveband. These AWHPs generally contain a property whereby the optic axis is dependent on the electromagnetic frequency of the incident radiation. When the AHWP is used to measure incident polarized radiation with a finite detection bandwidth, this frequency dependence causes an uncertainty in the determination of the polarization angle due to the limited knowledge of the shape of the source spectrum and detection band. To mitigate this problem, we propose new designs of the AHWP which eliminate the frequency dependence of the optic axis over the bandwidth whilst maintaining high modulation efficiency. We carried out this optimization by tuning the relative angles among the individual half-wave plates of the five and nine layer AHWPs. The optimized set of relative angles achieves a frequency-independent optic axis over the fractional bandwidth, a bandwidth over which polarization efficiency is greater than 0.9, of 1.3 and 1.5 for the five and nine layer AHWPs, respectively. We also study the susceptibility of the alignment accuracy on the polarization efficiency and the frequency dependence of the optic axis, which provides a design guidance for each application.

description: The benzene radical anion, well-known in organic chemistry as the first intermediate in the Birch reduction of benzene in liquid ammonia, exhibits intriguing properties from the point of view of quantum chemistry. Notably, it has the character of a metastable shape resonance in the gas phase, while measurements in solution find it to be experimentally detectable and stable. In this light, our previous calculations performed in bulk liquid ammonia explicitly reveal that solvation leads to stabilization. Here, we focus on the transition of the benzene radical anion from an unstable gas-phase ion to a fully solvated bound species by explicit ionization calculations of the radical anion solvated in molecular clusters of increasing size. The computational cost of the largest systems is mitigated by combining density functional theory with auxiliary methods including effective fragment potentials or approximating the bulk by polarizable continuum models. Using this methodology, we obtain the cluster size dependence of the vertical binding energy of the benzene radical anion converging to the value of $-$2.3 eV at a modest computational cost.

description: For facile manipulation of polarization states of light for applications in communications, imaging, and information processing, an efficient mechanism is desired for rotating light polarization with a minimum interaction length. Here, we report giant polarization rotations for terahertz (THz) electromagnetic waves in ultrathin (~45 nm), high-density films of aligned carbon nanotubes. We observed polarization rotations of up to ~20° and ~110° for transmitted and reflected THz pulses, respectively. The amount of polarization rotation was a sensitive function of the angle between the incident THz polarization and the nanotube alignment direction, exhibiting a `magic' angle at which the total rotation through transmission and reflection becomes exactly 90°. Our model quantitatively explains these giant rotations as a result of extremely anisotropic optical constants, demonstrating that aligned carbon nanotubes promise ultrathin, broadband, and tunable THz polarization devices.
On the Origin of the Kinematical Differences Between the Stellar Halo and the Old Globular Cluster System in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Creators: name: Bekki, Kenji

description: We discuss structural and kinematical properties of the stellar halo and the old globular cluster system (GCS) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) based on numerical simulations of the LMC formation. We particularly discuss the observed possible GCS's rotational kinematics (V/sigma > 2) that appears to be significantly different from the stellar halo's one with a large velocity dispersion (~50 km/s). We consider that both halo field stars and old GCs can originate from low-mass subhalos virialized at high redshifts (z >6). We investigate the final dynamical properties of the two old components in the LMC's halo formed from merging of low-mass subhalos with field stars and GCs. We find that the GCS composed of old globular clusters (GCs) formed at high redshifts (z > 6) has little rotation (V/sigma ~0.4) and structure and kinematics similar to those of the stellar halo. This inconsistency between the simulated GCS's kinematics and the observed one is found to be seen in models with different parameters. This inconsistency therefore implies that if old, metal-poor GCs in the LMC have rotational kinematics, they are highly unlikely to originate from the low-mass subhalos that formed the stellar halo. We thus discuss a scenario in which the stellar halo was formed from low-mass subhalos with no/few GCs whereas the GCS was formed at the very early epoch of the LMC's disk formation via dissipative minor and major merging of gas-rich subhalos and gas infall. We suggest that there can be a threshold subhalo mass above which GCs can be formed within subhalos at high redshifts and thus that this threshold causes differences in physical properties between stellar halos and GCSs in less luminous galaxies like the LMC.

Fundamental Properties and Cooperative Phenomena (Virtual)
The utilization of spintronic devices has experienced tremendous growth in the past decade, ranging from usage in satellites to diverse fields to neuromorphic computing. However, the scalability of these devices at the nanoscale is hindered by the thermal stability of magnetic materials, which primarily depends on the magnetic volume. This study investigates on the nanoscale magnetic filament formation in a Pt(3)/Co(1.2)/Ta(1)/CoFeB(1.2)/MgO(2)/TaO(9)/Co(30)/Ta(3) heterostructure, where the numbers in parentheses represent the layer thickness in nanometre. The proposed heterostructure as shown in Fig. 1 facilitates the formation of a vertical magnetic filament, enabling the retention of a large magnetic volume while overcoming scalability issues in the planar direction. In its pristine state, without the filament formed, the device exhibits insignificant resistance change in a magnetic field sweep. However, with the application of a voltage sweep enables the formation of magnetic conductive filament, a significant drop in resistance is observed accompanied by the manifestation of tunnelling magnetoresistance as shown in Fig. 2. The hysteresis loop indicates the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the filament, attributed to its shape. Through vibrating sample magnetometer measurement on the unpatterned thin film, it is verified that Pt/Co/Ta/CoFeB/MgO layer exhibits perpendicular anisotropy from the Pt/Co and CoFeB/MgO interfaces and is magnetically coupled, while the 30 nm thick Co layer shows in-plane anisotropy. This suggests that the magnetic filament consist of Co from the top electrode. By adjusting the compliance current in a subsequent voltage sweep, the magnetic coercivity of the Co filament can be finely tuned from 59 Oe to 14 Oe. This post fabrication fine tuning of coercivity offers enhanced control over the trade-off between energy efficiency and thermal stability of the device.

description: The rise of personal assistants has made conversational question answering (ConvQA) a very popular mechanism for user-system interaction. State-of-the-art methods for ConvQA over knowledge graphs (KGs) can only learn from crisp question-answer pairs found in popular benchmarks. In reality, however, such training data is hard to come by: users would rarely mark answers explicitly as correct or wrong. In this work, we take a step towards a more natural learning paradigm - from noisy and implicit feedback via question reformulations. A reformulation is likely to be triggered by an incorrect system response, whereas a new follow-up question could be a positive signal on the previous turn's answer. We present a reinforcement learning model, termed CONQUER, that can learn from a conversational stream of questions and reformulations. CONQUER models the answering process as multiple agents walking in parallel on the KG, where the walks are determined by actions sampled using a policy network. This policy network takes the question along with the conversational context as inputs and is trained via noisy rewards obtained from the reformulation likelihood. To evaluate CONQUER, we create and release ConvRef, a benchmark with about 11k natural conversations containing around 205k reformulations. Experiments show that CONQUER successfully learns to answer conversational questions from noisy reward signals, significantly improving over a state-of-the-art baseline.

Hard Magnetic Materials I
Nd-Fe-B magnets have become the most consumed permanent magnet due to their excellent magnetic properties. However, the susceptibility to corrosion is a main disadvantage[1,2]. It is important to improve the corrosion resistance of uncoated sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets. In this work, the sintered Nd-Ni-Fe-Cr-B magnet was designed and fabricated. This sintered Nd-Ni-Fe-Cr-B magnet maintains a typical 2:14:1 tetragonal phase, and the metallurgical behavior of Ni and Cr is characterized by the distribution of Ni at the grain boundary and Cr in the main phase. To evaluate the effect of the co-addition of Ni and Cr on corrosion resistance, sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets with the same Nd content were also prepared. The results of the corrosion tests are encouraging: the mass loss of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnet (5.00 mg/cm2) is ~11.40 times that of sintered Nd-Ni-Fe-Cr-B magnet (0.44 mg/cm2) after corroded in accelerated corrosion test for 480 hours; The corrosion current of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnet (191.00 μA/cm2) is ~17.36 times that of sintered Nd-Ni-Fe-Cr-B magnet (11.00 μA/cm2) in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. The impedance of NdNiFeCrB magnet (Rct0 is 2800.00 Ω) is greatly increased considerably by an order of magnitude compared to Nd-Fe-B magnet (Rct0 is 238.80 Ω). The metallurgical behavior of Ni and Cr, diminishing the potential difference between the grain boundary phase and the main phase, gives a huge improvement in the corrosion resistance of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnet. This work provides a direction for future research on magnets without coatings.

description: We study the spin polarization generated by the hydrodynamic gradients. In addition to the widely studied thermal vorticity effects, we identify an undiscovered contribution from the fluid shear. This shear-induced polarization (SIP) can be viewed as the fluid analog of strain-induced polarization observed in elastic and nematic materials. We obtain the explicit expression for SIP using the quantum kinetic equation and linear response theory. Based on a realistic hydrodynamic model, we compute the differential spin polarization along both the beam direction $\hat{z}$ and the out-plane direction $\hat{y}$ in non-central heavy-ion collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV, including both SIP and thermal vorticity effects. We find that SIP contribution always shows the same azimuthal angle dependence as experimental data and competes with thermal vorticity effects. In the scenario that $Λ$ inherits and memorizes the spin polarization of strange quark, SIP wins the competition, and the resulting azimuthal angle dependent spin polarization $P_y$ and $P_z$ agrees qualitatively with the experimental data.

description: We report the detection of the millisecond pulsar B1257+12 with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. In a 20 ks exposure we detected 25 photons from the pulsar, with energies between 0.4 and 2.0 keV, corresponding to the flux F_X=(4.4+/- 0.9)*10^{-15} ergs s^{-1} cm^{-2} in this energy range. The X-ray spectrum can be described by a power-law model with photon index Gamma = 2.8 and luminosity L_X \approx 2.5*10^{29} ergs s^{-1} in the 0.3--8 keV band, for a plausible distance of 500 pc and hydrogen column density N_H=3*10^{20} cm^{-2}. Alternatively, the spectrum can be fitted by a blackbody model with kT ~ 0.22 keV and projected emitting area ~2000 m^2. If the thermal X-rays are emitted from two symmetric polar caps, the bolometric luminosity of the two caps is 2 L_bol ~ 3*10^{29} ergs s^{-1}. We compared our results with the data on other 30 millisecond pulsars observed in X-rays and found that the apparent X-ray efficiency of PSR B1257+12, L_X/Edot ~ 3*10^{-5} for d=500 pc, is lower than those of most of millisecond pulsars. This might be explained by an unfavorable orientation of the X-ray pulsar beam if the radiation is magnetospheric, or by strong asymmetry of polar caps if the radiation is thermal (e.g., one of the polar caps is much brighter than the other and remains invisible for most part of the pulsar period). Alternatively, it could be attributed to absorption of X-rays in circumpulsar matter, such as a flaring debris disk left over after formation of the planetary system around the pulsar.

Learning of Causal Observable Functions for Koopman-DFL Lifting Linearization of Nonlinear Controlled Systems and Its Application to Excavation Automation

description: Effective and causal observable functions for low-order lifting linearization of nonlinear controlled systems are learned from data by using neural networks. While Koopman operator theory allows us to represent a nonlinear system as a linear system in an infinite-dimensional space of observables, exact linearization is guaranteed only for autonomous systems with no input, and finding effective observable functions for approximation with a low-order linear system remains an open question. Dual-Faceted Linearization uses a set of effective observables for low-order lifting linearization, but the method requires knowledge of the physical structure of the nonlinear system. Here, a data-driven method is presented for generating a set of nonlinear observable functions that can accurately approximate a nonlinear control system to a low-order linear control system. A caveat in using data of measured variables as observables is that the measured variables may contain input to the system, which incurs a causality contradiction when lifting the system, i.e. taking derivatives of the observables. The current work presents a method for eliminating such anti-causal components of the observables and lifting the system using only causal observables. The method is applied to excavation automation, a complex nonlinear dynamical system, to obtain a low-order lifted linear model for control design.

description: The US Census Bureau plans to protect the privacy of 2020 Census respondents through its Disclosure Avoidance System (DAS), which attempts to achieve differential privacy guarantees by adding noise to the Census microdata. By applying redistricting simulation and analysis methods to DAS-protected 2010 Census data, we find that the protected data are not of sufficient quality for redistricting purposes. We demonstrate that the injected noise makes it impossible for states to accurately comply with the One Person, One Vote principle. Our analysis finds that the DAS-protected data are biased against certain areas, depending on voter turnout and partisan and racial composition, and that these biases lead to large and unpredictable errors in the analysis of partisan and racial gerrymanders. Finally, we show that the DAS algorithm does not universally protect respondent privacy. Based on the names and addresses of registered voters, we are able to predict their race as accurately using the DAS-protected data as when using the 2010 Census data. Despite this, the DAS-protected data can still inaccurately estimate the number of majority-minority districts. We conclude with recommendations for how the Census Bureau should proceed with privacy protection for the 2020 Census.

description: Electric dipole spin resonance (EDSR) is a commonly used tool for manipulation and spectroscopy of quantum-dot-based spin qubits. When an EDSR experiment is embedded in a transport setup and Pauli spin blockade is used as means for spin-state read-out, then measured resonant responses in the leakage current indeed carry information about the level structure of the system under study. However, the actual line shape of these current resonances differs substantially from experiment to experiment, varying from being symmetric to asymmetric and from being a peak to a dip, a thorough understanding of which is still lacking. Here, we investigate theoretically the detailed line shape of EDSR-induced resonances in the leakage current in the regime of spin blockade, and we connect different line shapes to the different underlying physical mechanisms that can enable the EDSR. We carry out both numerical and analytical investigations, producing simple analytic expressions that give insight in the physics at play. Our results thus provide a means to extract more information about the detailed system parameters of quantum dots hosting spin qubits from an EDSR experiment than just their level structure based on the location of the resonances.

description: The difference between the updated experimental result on the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment and the corresponding theoretical prediction of the standard model on that is about $4.2$ standard deviations. In this work, we calculate the muon anomalous MDM at the two-loop level in the supersymmetric $B-L$ extension of the standard model. Considering the experimental constraints on the lightest Higgs boson mass, Higgs boson decay modes $h\rightarrow γγ,\;WW,\;ZZ,\; b\bar b,\;τ\barτ$, B rare decay $\bar B\rightarrow X_sγ$, and the transition magnetic moments of Majorana neutrinos, we analyze the theoretical predictions of the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment in the $B-L$ supersymmetric model. The numerical analyses indicate that the tension between the experimental measurement and the standard model prediction is remedied in the $B-L$ supersymmetric model.

description: Machine Reassignment is a challenging problem for constraint programming (CP) and mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) approaches, especially given the size of data centres. The multi-objective version of the Machine Reassignment Problem is even more challenging and it seems unlikely for CP or MILP to obtain good results in this context. As a result, the first approaches to address this problem have been based on other optimisation methods, including metaheuristics. In this paper we study under which conditions a mixed-integer optimisation solver, such as IBM ILOG CPLEX, can be used for the Multi-objective Machine Reassignment Problem. We show that it is useful only for small or medium-scale data centres and with some relaxations, such as an optimality tolerance gap and a limited number of directions explored in the search space. Building on this study, we also investigate a hybrid approach, feeding a metaheuristic with the results of CPLEX, and we show that the gains are important in terms of quality of the set of Pareto solutions (+126.9% against the metaheuristic alone and +17.8% against CPLEX alone) and number of solutions (8.9 times more than CPLEX), while the processing time increases only by 6% in comparison to CPLEX for execution times larger than 100 seconds.

description: We consider a class (convex set) of quantum states containing all finite rank states and infinite rank states with the sufficient rate of decreasing of eigenvalues (in particular, all Gaussian states). Quantum states from this class are characterized by the property (called the FA-property) that allows to obtain several results concerning finite-dimensional approximation of basic entropic and information characteristics of quantum systems and channels. We obtain a simple sufficient condition of the FA-property. We show that this property implies finiteness of the von Neumann entropy, but leave unsolved the question concerning the converse implication. We obtain uniform approximation results for characteristics depending on a pair (channel, input state) and for characteristics depending on a pair (channel, input ensemble). We establish the uniform continuity of the above characteristics as functions of a channel w.r.t. the strong convergence provided that the FA-property holds either for the input state or for the average state of input ensemble.

description: Recently, the witness of the rapidly growing popularity of short videos on different Internet platforms has intensified the need for a background music (BGM) retrieval system. However, existing video-music retrieval methods only based on the visual modality cannot show promising performance regarding videos with fine-grained virtual contents. In this paper, we also investigate the widely added voice-overs in short videos and propose a novel framework to retrieve BGM for fine-grained short videos. In our framework, we use the self-attention (SA) and the cross-modal attention (CMA) modules to explore the intra- and the inter-relationships of different modalities respectively. For balancing the modalities, we dynamically assign different weights to the modal features via a fusion gate. For paring the query and the BGM embeddings, we introduce a triplet pseudo-label loss to constrain the semantics of the modal embeddings. As there are no existing virtual-content video-BGM retrieval datasets, we build and release two virtual-content video datasets HoK400 and CFM400. Experimental results show that our method achieves superior performance and outperforms other state-of-the-art methods with large margins.

Word statistics in Blogs and RSS feeds: Towards empirical universal evidence

description: We focus on the statistics of word occurrences and of the waiting times between such occurrences in Blogs. Due to the heterogeneity of words' frequencies, the empirical analysis is performed by studying classes of "frequently-equivalent" words, i.e. by grouping words depending on their frequencies. Two limiting cases are considered: the dilute limit, i.e. for those words that are used less than once a day, and the dense limit for frequent words. In both cases, extreme events occur more frequently than expected from the Poisson hypothesis. These deviations from Poisson statistics reveal non-trivial time correlations between events that are associated with bursts of activities. The distribution of waiting times is shown to behave like a stretched exponential and to have the same shape for different sets of words sharing a common frequency, thereby revealing universal features.

Islands and Page curves in 4d from Type IIB

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Variants of the black hole information paradox are studied in Type IIB string theory setups that realize four-dimensional gravity coupled to a bath. The setups are string theory versions of doubly-holographic Karch/Randall brane worlds, with black holes coupled to non-gravitating and gravitating baths. The 10d versions are based on fully backreacted solutions for configurations of D3, D5 and NS5 branes, and admit dual descriptions as $\mathcal N=4$ SYM on a half space and 3d $T_ρ^σ[SU(N)]$ SCFTs. Island contributions to the entanglement entropy of black hole radiation systems are identified through Ryu/Takayanagi surfaces and lead to Page curves. Analogs of the critical angles found in the Karch/Randall models are identified in 10d, as critical parameters in the brane configurations and dual field theories.

description: Using Langevin dynamics simulations, we study the hysteresis in unzipping of longer double stranded DNA chains whose ends are subjected to a time dependent periodic force with frequency $ω$ and amplitude $G$ keeping the other end fixed. We find that the area of the hysteresis loop, $A_{loop}$, scales as $1/ω$ at higher frequencies, whereas it scales as $(G-G_c)^αω^β$ with exponents $α=1$ and $β=1.25$ in the low frequency regime. These values are same as the exponents obtained in Monte Carlo simulation studies of a directed self avoiding walk model of a homopolymer DNA [R. Kapri, Phys. Rev. E 90, 062719 (2014)], and the block copolymer DNA [R. K. Yadav and R. Kapri, Phys. Rev. E 103, 012413 (2021)] on a square lattice, and differs from the values reported earlier using Langevin dynamics simulation studies on a much shorter DNA hairpins.

Fluid economies, fluid identities: women, water and work, 1750-1914
Creators: name: Booth, Maria
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: This dissertation, “Fluid Economies, Fluid Identities: Gender, Water and Work in Britain, 1750 – 1918,” brings together a social and economic history of women in the fishing industry, with an inquiry into scientific and popular discourses and understandings of sex, gender, and species. Women fish sellers are largely absent from histories of gendered labor and capitalism, yet they literally carried one of Britain’s most historically significant economies on their backs. They were at once a reminder of Britain’s longstanding dependence on the economies of the sea and an indicator of the startling potential of an economy significantly controlled by women, particularly along the eastern coastline of Scotland and England. In a period obsessed with the confines of categorization, fishwives themselves, and contemporary representations of them, dangerously transgressed and crossed borders.“Fluid Economies, Fluid Identities” reconstructs the socio-economic world and everyday lives of women who worked in Britain's fishing industry from the mideighteenth century through to the start of WWI. Fishwives used both the family economy and capitalism to their advantage, enacting a substantial amount of control within their local sea-based microeconomies. Fishwives also carried with them multiple discursive meanings. Contemporaries constructed identities for women in the fisheries industrybased on taxonomies gleaned from the annals of natural history. Environment –specifically that of the sea and shore – shaped how contemporaries discussed, identified, and interacted with the women who drew their livelihoods from its depths. The women’s supposed affinity with the fish they sold led to contemporary concern over the “fishiness” – or strangeness – of both their gender and sexuality. The conflation of female flesh with fish both produced and disturbed the boundaries between human and animal, female and male, and natural and unnatural in ethnographic accounts, legal cases, and popular visual culture. By tracing the figure of fishwives in British and French satirical prints in the lateeighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries, this dissertation demonstrates how the fluidity of fishwives’ identity seeped into the realm of the political as well.Fishwives lived and labored at the borders of land and sea. This study underscores that their fluid crossings incited contemporaries to wrestle with and ask hard questions about taxonomies and hierarchies of gender, sex, and species ordering British society. By considering fishwives as complicated and contradictory figures, historians gain an understanding and appreciation for the rhetorical and material work that women undertook along Britain’s shores.

description: Speckle interferometric observations made with the 6 m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2000 revealed the triple nature of the nearby ($π_{Hip}=51.80\pm1.74$ mas) low-mass young ($\approx200$ Myr) star GJ 900. The configuration of the triple system allowed it to be dynamically unstable. Differential photometry performed from 2000 through 2004 yielded $I$- and $K$-band absolute magnitudes and spectral types for the components to be $I_{A}$=6.66$\pm$0.08, $I_{B}$=9.15$\pm$0.11, $I_{C}$=10.08$\pm$0.26, $K_{A}$=4.84$\pm$0.08, $K_{B}$=6.76$\pm$0.20, $K_{C}$=7.39$\pm$0.31, $Sp_{A}$$\approx$K5--K7, $Sp_{B}$$\approx$M3--M4, $Sp_{C}$$\approx$M5--M6. The ``mass--luminosity'' relation is used to estimate the individual masses of the components: $\mathcal{M}_{A}$$\approx0.64\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$, $\mathcal{M}_{B}$$\approx0.21\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$, $\mathcal{M}_{C}$$\approx0.13\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$. From the observations of the components relative motion in the period 2000--2006, we conclude that GJ 900 is a hierarchical triple star with the possible orbital periods P$_{A-BC}$$\approx$80 yrs and P$_{BC}$$\approx$20 yrs. An analysis of the 2MASS images of the region around GJ 900 leads us to suggest that the system can include other very-low-mass components.
