A comparative study of the strength of flickering in cataclysmic variables
Creators: name: Bruch, Albert
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Flickering is a universal phenomenon in accreting astronomical systems which still defies detailed physical understanding. It is particularly evident in cataclysmic variables (CVs). Attempting to define boundary conditions for models, the strength of the flickering is measured in several thousand light curves of more than 100 CVs. The flickering amplitude is parameterized by the FWHM of a Gaussian fit to the magnitude distribution of data points in a light curve. This quantity requires several corrections before a comparison between different sources can be made. While no correlations of the flickering strength with simple parameters such as component masses, orbital inclination or period were detected, a dependence on the absolute magnitude of the primary component and on the CV subtype is found. In particular, flickering in VY Scl tpye novalike variables is systematically stronger than in UX UMa type novalikes. The broadband spectrum of the flickering light source can be fit by simple models but shows excess in the $U$ band. When the data permitted to investigate the flickering strength as a function of orbital phase in eclipsing CVs, such a dependence was found, but it is different for different systems. Surprisingly, there are also indications for variations of the flickering strength with the superhump phase in novalike variables with permanent superhumps. In dwarf novae, the flickering amplitude is high during quiescence, drops quickly at an intermediate magnitude when the system enters into (or returns from) an outburst and, on average, remains constant above a given brightness threshold.

description: We study the role of bound states appearing in different formulations of the Bethe ansatz for the supersymmetric t-J model with a boundary potential and an integrable impurity. For special values of the parameters describing the boundary and the impurity the charge fluctuations at the latter vanish. The population of the bound states selects different sectors of the impurity levels leading to integrable Kondo impurities.

DIDEROT E LA FISIOLOGIA DELL’EMOZIONE: LE PARADOXE SUR LE COMÉDIEN TRA ESTETICA E MORALE

description: Starting from an analysis of the different types of tears that can be find in Diderot’s Paradoxe sur le comédien (men’s tears/women’s tears; tears that flow from the brain/tears that flow from the heart; tragic tears/pathetic tears) the article tries to highlight the pedagogical role that Diderot assigns to the emotion. In fact, the “good use” of weeping provides a valuable contribution to the harmonious development of the moral sensibility of the spectator. In conclusion, the analysis of tears exceeds any aesthetic and sociological reflection on the theater. This allows to emphasize the possibility of assigning a moral role to emotion, bringing out clearly the convergence and synergy between Diderot’s physiological, aesthetic and moral reflection.

Year: 2019

description: Abstract: Starting from the premise that the reproductive rights are accomplished by the human right to health, this article aims to study the female sterilization as a form of curtailment of the reproductive rights of women, considering the way it is regulated and implemented in Brazil. Therefore, thus paper starts with a background of the reproductive rights from the feminist struggle to its insertion into the list of human rights. Then, the concept of reproductive rights is developed followed by a debate on feminism. In the second part, the article's principle objective of the dichotomy between sterilization as a voluntary and compulsory measure is analyzed. In order to do so, there is a discussion of how the laws are challenged through looking at how it regulates female sterilization as well as how public sector (judges and prosecutors) legal professionals enforce the law. The Brazilian Family Planning Act and the 2018 São Paulo compulsory sterilization case are this article's grounds for analysis. The method is deductive and started from the legal doctrine of the act and the case. The conclusion is that the realization of the reproductive rights agenda debated in Brazil but that reproductive rights are not fully enjoyed by all of its citizens. Women cannot exercise full control over their bodies due to the requirement of their husband's consent and the eugenic action of the Public Prosecutor. Keywords: reproductive rights, voluntary sterilization, compulsory sterilization.

This result is applied to give explicit diagrammatic bounds on the volumes of many knots and links, as well as their Dehn fillings and branched covers. Finally, we use this result to bound the volumes of knots in terms of the coefficients of their Jones polynomials.

Promotion vs. Education in Choosing “Real Food”

Publisher: name: Consilience
Year: 2019

description: The global agro-industrial system contributes to an abundance of human and ecological health problems from social injustices and public health issues to global warming and ecological degradation. In response to these problems, universities across the country are joining the Real Food Challenge (RFC). The RFC is a national student-driven organization that defines “Real Food” as possessing at least one of the following four attributes: local, fair, ecologically-sound, and/or humane. By mobilizing the power of students on college campuses, the RFC aspires to shift up to one billion dollars in dining purchasing towards “Real Food” by the year 2020. One key element for the continued success of the RFC is a better understanding of factors affecting college student food choice. Our research explores these factors as well as the types of interventions that will most effectively impact them. Both educational and social marketing strategies were found to effectively increase the importance of Real Food factors affecting college student food choice decisions. In addition, the overwhelming majority of student participants believe that their personal food choices can have an impact on moving the larger industrial food system towards sustainability. Identifying strategies that encourage students to choose more “Real Food” can provide administrations with the necessary support to increase sustainable food purchasing while fueling the RFC on its industry-shifting path towards a more sustainable food system overall.

description: In recent years, increased stakeholder pressure to transition research to Open Access has led to many journals converting, or 'flipping', from a closed access (CA) to an open access (OA) publishing model. Changing the publishing model can influence the decision of authors to submit their papers to a journal, and increased article accessibility may influence citation behaviour. In this paper we aimed to understand how flipping a journal to an OA model influences the journal's future publication volumes and citation impact. We analysed two independent sets of journals that had flipped to an OA model, one from the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and one from the Open Access Directory (OAD), and compared their development with two respective control groups of similar journals. For bibliometric analyses, journals were matched to the Scopus database. We assessed changes in the number of articles published over time, as well as two citation metrics at the journal and article level: the normalised impact factor (IF) and the average relative citations (ARC), respectively. Our results show that overall, journals that flipped to an OA model increased their publication output compared to journals that remained closed. Mean normalised IF and ARC also generally increased following the flip to an OA model, at a greater rate than was observed in the control groups. However, the changes appear to vary largely by scientific discipline. Overall, these results indicate that flipping to an OA publishing model can bring positive changes to a journal.

Service and treatment resources for mothers of chemically addicted infants
Creators: name: Needer, Lana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: There is a vast amount of research on the effects of prenatal substance abuse and the treatment of its unfortunate victims. While it is recognized that the answer to the problem of prenatal substance abuse is abstinence from drug and alcohol use during pregnancy, so far this has been an unattainable goal. Abstinence can only be achieved if the programs for addicted pregnant women can successfully engage them and adequately meet their treatment and service needs. Given the alarming increase in recent years of the number of infants born with chemical addiction, it can be assumed the resources for pregnant addicted women are somehow failing. This study explores the specific treatment and service needs of thirteen chemically addicted pregnant women, determines to what extent the current resources available to these women are being utilized for treatment and finally from a consumer's perspective, investigates what kinds of resources these women perceive as most useful in terms of addressing their multifaceted service needs.

Year: 2020

description: The last decade of events around the world have brought into clearer focus than ever before this overarching principle: humanity’s many troubles will not abate, they will grow steadily worse, unless humanity can agree on the lodestar of sustainable development. We find ourselves in the early steep climb of exponential change: per capita consumption of materials and energy; the demand for shrinking natural resources, most critical of which is fresh water; climate change with an impact on virtually every aspect of human welfare; the cost of war; and the destruction of ecosystems and species, which have hitherto sustained us scot free. These trends are interlocked and mutually reinforcing. We must study and address them as a unity. Success would ensure a future for humanitarian civilization. Failure is unthinkable.

The German poet’s view renews in fact an old tradition. But it is at the same time true that the idea seems to be very influential in the German debate on art – and above all on painting – during the 19th century, reaching the two first decades of the 20th: Kandinskij first of all, but also Klee.

description: The crystal and magnetic structure of multiferroic LiFe(WO$_4$)$_2$ were investigated by temperature and magnetic-field dependent specific heat, susceptibility and neutron diffraction experiments on single crystals. Considering only the two nearest-neighbour magnetic interactions, the system forms a $J_1$, $J_2$ magnetic chain but more extended interactions are sizeable. Two different magnetic phases exhibiting long-range incommensurate order evolve at $T_{\text{N}1}\approx 22.2 \text{ K}$ and $T_{\text{N}2}\approx 19 \text{ K}$. First, a spin-density wave develops with moments lying in the $ac$ plane. In its multiferroic phase below $T_{\text{N}2}$, LiFe(WO$_4$)$_2$ exhibits a spiral arrangement with an additional spin-component along $b$. Therefore, the inverse Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya mechanism fully explains the multiferroic behavior in this material. A partially unbalanced multiferroic domain distribution was observed even in the absence of an applied electric field. For both phases only a slight temperature dependence of the incommensurability was observed and there is no commensurate phase emerging at low temperature or at finite magnetic fields up to $6\text{ T}$. LiFe(WO$_4$)$_2$ thus exhibits a simple phase diagram with the typical sequence of transitions for a type-II multiferroic material.

description: The ground state of spin-1 Haldane chains is characterized by the so-called string order. We show that the same hidden order is also present in ordinary one-dimensional band insulators. We construct a family of Hamiltonians which connects adiabatically band insulators to two topologically non-equivalent spin models, the Haldane chain and the antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 ladder. We observe that the localized spin-1/2 edge-state characteristic of spin-1 chains is smoothly connected to a surface-bound state of band insulators and its emergence is not related to any bulk phase transition. Furthermore, we show that the string order is absent in any dimensions higher than one.

FORMA E INDIVIDUALITÀ NEL DETERMINISMO BIOLOGICO DI CLAUDE BERNARD

Subjects: Storia della filosofia; Estetica; Biologia; Claude Bernard; Forma

description: This essay aims at pointing out the relevance of the question of individuality in the epistemological project of Claude Bernard, the scientist who plays a decisive role in defining the physiology as an autonomous science. Through a detailed analysis of Bernard’s theoretical corpus, this paper shows that the question is closely joined with other problematic issues such as the specificity of the life and the sciences of life, the need to forge original concepts and methods without sacrificing the determinism of biological facts, the metaphorical status assigned to the concept of organic creation, the relationship between morphological processes and physico- chemical elements. Therefore, the question of individuality makes the deterministic view of Bernard more flexible and open, also activating an un- remitting tension between invariance and variability, unity and uniqueness, rule and creativity.

On the merit of hot ion mode for tearing mode stabilization

description: The stabilization of tearing modes with rf driven current benefits from the cooperative feedback loop between rf power deposition and electron temperature within the island. This effect, termed rf current condensation, can greatly enhance and localize current driven within magnetic islands. It has previously been shown that the condensation effect opens the possibility of passive stabilization with broad rf profiles, as would be typical of LHCD for steady state operation. Here we show that this self-healing effect can be dramatically amplified by operation in a hot ion mode, due to the additional electron heat source provided by the hotter ions.

description: We study a QCD sum rule analysis for an exotic tetraquark ud bar[s] bar[s] of J^P=0^+ and I = 1. We construct q q bar[q] bar[q] currents in a local product form and find that there are five independent currents for this channel. Due to high dimensional nature of the current, it is not easy to form a good sum rule when using a single current. This means that we do not find any sum rule window to extract reliable results, due to the insufficient convergence of the OPE and to the exceptional important role of QCD continuum. Then we examine sum rules by using currents of linear combinations of two currents among the independent ones. We find two reasonable cases that predict a mass of the tetraquark around 1.5 GeV.

description: There are clear implications that sustainable new service development (SNSD) is not only part of the future, but also an important part of contemporary service operations. This paper examines the importance of contingent data in the evaluation of sustainable new service development. This research seeks to discover the amount of food waste produced by a single managed catering business unit and show the usefulness of this data in measuring efficiency and effectiveness of its operations management. The secondary objective is to improve the methods used in the field of SNSD. Results indicate that empirical data analysis could be used as a driver of SNSD. Additionally, the research finds that measuring contingent operational performance and wastage streams can help organizations to meet their SNSD goals.

description: We investigate the photoionised X-ray emission line regions (ELRs) within the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, to determine if there are any characteristic changes between observations taken fourteen years apart. We compare XMM-Newton observations collected in 2000 and 2014, simultaneously fitting the reflection grating spectrometer (RGS) and EPIC-pn spectra of each epoch, for the first time, with the photoionisation model, PION, in SPEX. We find that four PION components are required to fit the majority of the emission lines in the spectra of NGC 1068, with $\log ξ=1-4$, $\log N_H>26 m^{-2}$, and $v_{out}=-100$ to $-600 kms^{-1}$ for both epochs. Comparing the ionisation state of the components shows almost no difference between the two epochs, while there is an increase in the total column density. To estimate the locations of these plasma regions from the central black hole we compare distance methods, excluding the variability arguments as there is no spectral change between observations. Although the methods are unable to constrain the distances, the locations are consistent with the narrow line region, with the possibility of the higher ionised component being part of the broad line region, but we cannot conclude this for certain. In addition, we find evidence for emission from collisionally ionised plasma, while previous analysis had suggested that collisional plasma emission was unlikely. However, although PION is unable to account for the FeXVII emission lines at 15 and 17 Å, we do not rule out that photoexcitation is a valid processes to produce these lines too. NGC 1068 has not changed, both in terms of the observed spectra or from our modelling, within the 14 year time period between observations. This suggests that the ELRs are fairly static relative to the 14 year time frame between observations, or there is no dramatic change in the black hole variability.

description: In this paper we describe Herwig++ version 2.3, a general-purpose Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of hard lepton-lepton, lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron collisions. A number of important hard scattering processes are available, together with an interface via the Les Houches Accord to specialized matrix element generators for additional processes. The simulation of Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics includes a range of models and allows new models to be added by encoding the Feynman rules of the model. The parton-shower approach is used to simulate initial- and final-state QCD radiation, including colour coherence effects, with special emphasis on the correct description of radiation from heavy particles. The underlying event is simulated using an eikonal multiple parton-parton scattering model. The formation of hadrons from the quarks and gluons produced in the parton shower is described using the cluster hadronization model. Hadron decays are simulated using matrix elements, where possible including spin correlations and off-shell effects.

This is done by considering the examples of rational Cherednik algebras, Hecke algebras, quantised universal enveloping algebras, quantum Borels and quantised function algebras. In particular, we give a positive answer to \cite[Problem 6]{Rouquier} stating that the restricted rational Cherednik algebra at the value $t=0$ is symmetric.

description: Non-collinear magnets exhibit a rich array of dynamic properties at microwave frequencies. They can host nanometre-scale topological textures known as skyrmions, whose spin resonances are expected to be highly sensitive to their local magnetic environment. Here, we report a magnetic resonance study of an [Ir/Fe/Co/Pt] multilayer hosting Néel skyrmions at room temperature. Experiments reveal two distinct resonances of the skyrmion phase during in-plane ac excitation, with frequencies between 6-12 GHz. Complementary micromagnetic simulations indicate that the net magnetic dipole moment rotates counterclockwise (CCW) during both resonances. The magnon probability distribution for the lower-frequency resonance is localised within isolated skyrmions, unlike the higher-frequency mode which principally originates from areas between skyrmions. However, the properties of both modes depend sensitively on the out-of-plane dipolar coupling, which is controlled via the ferromagnetic layer spacing in our heterostructures. The gyrations of stable isolated skyrmions reported in this room temperature study encourage the development of new material platforms and applications based on skyrmion resonances. Moreover, our material architecture enables the resonance spectra to be tuned, thus extending the functionality of such applications over a broadband frequency range.

description: Identifying and developing emerging biotechnologies is important in improving health in the poorest nations because current health products and practices are generally not suited for their developing economies, their inadequate transport and power infrastructures, their largely rural populace, and their rugged and often tropical environments. Advances in biotechnology will more likely be valued and adopted as innovations in developing countries if they are suited to these challenging conditions. These innovations in health will favor a shift away from a centralized, curative-based framework towards a decentralized, prevention-based paradigm.

description: Στο ελληνικό τοπίο παρατηρείται η εμφάνιση επιβλητικών μοναστηριακών συγκροτημάτων, βάσει των οποίων αντιλαμβανόμαστε σχέσεις αλληλεπίδρασης και συνέχειας ανάμεσα στις θρησκευτικές και εμπειρικές δυνάμεις που συγκροτούν τον κόσμο μας. Η ερευνητική εργασία πραγματεύεται την διερεύνηση του διάλογου που αναπτύσσουν τα μοναστηριακά συγκροτήματα με το ελληνικό τοπίο, έχοντας ως αφορμή την αισθητική θεώρηση του. Πρόκειται, για μονές και ασκητήρια με ιδιαίτερα περιβαλλοντικά χαρακτηριστικά όπου σε συνδυασμό με την αισθητική που προσφέρει το περιβάλλον, θα αποτελέσουν την διαλεκτική και πολυσύνθετη σχέση που επιτυγχάνεται μεταξύ της αρχιτεκτονικής και του τοπίου. Αρχικά, γίνεται εισήγηση της αισθητικής θεώρησης του περιβάλλοντος και έπειτα αναλύεται η θρησκευτική διάσταση του τοπίου από τους νεότερους μέχρι τους βυζαντινούς χρόνους. Στην συνέχεια η εργασία χωρίζεται σε δύο ενότητες, το «ανοιχτό» τοπίο των μονών, μέσα στα αδιάρρηκτα όρια του και το «κλειστό» τοπίο των μονών, δέσμιο του όλου του. Σε κάθε μια από τις επιλεγμένες ενότητες, αναλύονται όπως προ αναφέραμε μοναστηριακά συγκροτήματα, τα οποία βρίσκονται στο φυσικό τους τοπίο με σκοπό να εντοπίσουμε τις αισθητικές εμπειρίες του περιβάλλοντος χωρικά, δια της αρχιτεκτονικής. Καθώς, και τις Ιδέες που αντιλαμβανόμαστε πάντα σε μια συνεχή συνεργασία τοπίου και αρχιτεκτονικής. Τέλος, με βάση τα παραπάνω δίνεται ερέθισμα για γόνιμες συζητήσεις, ώστε να προβούμε στην ανάδειξη των ιδιαίτερων χαρακτηριστικών, μεταξύ του ελληνικού τοπίου και της μοναστηριακής αρχιτεκτονικής. Καθώς και σε άλλες έννοιες, τις οποίες εντοπίζουμε μέσα από αυτόν τον διάλογο.

First observation and branching fraction and decay parameter measurements of the weak radiative decay Xi0 --> Lambda e+e-
Creators: name: NA48 Collaboration
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The weak radiative decay Xi0 --> Lambda e+e- has been detected for the first time. We find 412 candidates in the signal region, with an estimated background of 15 +/- 5 events. We determine the branching fraction B(Xi0 --> Lambda e+e-) = [7.6 +/- 0.4(stat) +/- 0.4(syst) +/- 0.2(norm)] x 10^{-6}, consistent with an internal bremsstrahlung process, and the decay asymmetry parameter alpha_{XiLambdaee} = -0.8 +/- 0.2, consistent with that of Xi0 --> Lambda gamma. The charge conjugate reaction Xi0_bar --> Lambda_bar e+e- has also been observed.

description: The generic limit set of a cellular automaton is a topologically dened set of congurations that intends to capture the asymptotic behaviours while avoiding atypical ones. It was dened by Milnor then studied by Djenaoui and Guillon rst, and by T{ö}rm{ä} later. They gave properties of this set related to the dynamics of the cellular automaton, and the maximal complexity of its language. In this paper, we prove that every non trivial property of these generic limit sets of cellular automata is undecidable.
The Role of Regional Institutions in Sustainable Development: A Review of the Mekong River Commission First 15 Years
Creators: name: Ha, Mai-Lan
Publisher: name: Consilience
Year: 2020

description: The implementation of sustainable development principles often comes into conflict with government driven needs for greater economic growth. The richly diverse Mekong Region–which comprises the six riparian nations of China, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam–is in the midst of a regional debate between development and ecological preservation. The Mekong River Commission (MRC), the sole organization in the region tasked with managing this delicate balance, is struggling to find a balance between utilizing the Mekong’s waterways for economic growth without undermining the vitality of the river for use by future generations. In its 15 year history, the organization has never truly defined its basic principles on sustainability and has instead shifted positions as its leadership has changed. The MRC is also trapped in a difficult balance with its upstream neighbors; due to its limited authority, the MRC has been unable to effectively manage water usage and development along the Mekong region.

description: We perform molecular dynamics simulations in order to examine the rheological transition of fluids confined in a small space. By performing finite-size scaling analysis, we demonstrate that this rheological transition results from the competition between the system size and the length scale of cooperative particle motion.

Mean Free Path in Disordered Multichannel Tight-Binding Wires

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Transport in a disordered tight-binding wire involves a collection of different mean free paths resulting from the distinct fermi points, which correspond to the various scattering channels of the wire. The generalization of Thouless' relation between the mean free path and the localization length $ξ$ permits to define an average channel mean free path,$\bar\ell$, such that $ξ\sim N\bar\ell$ in an $N$-channel system. The averaged mean free path $\bar\ell$ is expressed exactly in terms of the total reflection coefficient of the wire and compared with the mean free path defined in the maximum entropy approach.

description: The structure of finite self-assembling systems depends sensitively on the number of constituent building blocks. Recently, it was demonstrated that hard sphere-like colloidal particles show a magic number effect when confined in spherical emulsion droplets. Geometric construction rules permit a few dozen magic numbers that correspond to a discrete series of completely filled concentric icosahedral shells. Here, we investigate the free energy landscape of these colloidal clusters as a function of the number of their constituent building blocks for system sizes up to several thousand particles. We find that minima in the free energy landscape, arising from the presence of filled, concentric shells, are significantly broadened. In contrast to their atomic analogues, colloidal clusters in spherical confinement can flexibly accommodate excess colloids by ordering icosahedrally in the cluster center while changing the structure near the cluster surface. In-between these magic number regions, the building blocks cannot arrange into filled shells. Instead, we observe that defects accumulate in a single wedge and therefore only affect a few tetrahedral grains of the cluster. We predict the existence of this wedge by simulation and confirm its presence in experiment using electron tomography. The introduction of the wedge minimizes the free energy penalty by confining defects to small regions within the cluster. In addition, the remaining ordered tetrahedral grains can relax internal strain by breaking icosahedral symmetry. Our findings demonstrate how multiple defect mechanisms collude to form the complex free energy landscape of hard sphere-like colloidal clusters.

description: We describe the concept, strategy and initial results of the Millennium Villages Project (MVP) and implications regarding sustainability and scalability. Our underlying hypothesis is that the interacting crises of agriculture, health, and infrastructure in rural Africa can be overcome through targeted public-sector investments to raise rural productivity, and thereby to increased private-sector saving and investments. This is carried out by empowering impoverished communities with science-based interventions. 78 Millennium Villages have been initiated in 12 sites in 10 African countries, each representing a major agroecological zone In early results, the research villages in Kenya, Ethiopia and Malawi have reduced malaria prevalence, met caloric requirements, generated crop surpluses, enabled school feeding programs, and provided cash earnings for farm families.

description: The goal of this work is to measure the evolution of the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function and of the resulting Stellar Mass Density up to redshift ~4, in order to study the assembly of massive galaxies in the high redshift Universe. We have used the GOODS-MUSIC catalog, containing ~3000 Ks-selected galaxies with multi-wavelength coverage extending from the U band to the Spitzer 8 micron band, of which 27% have spectroscopic redshifts and the remaining fraction have accurate photometric redshifts. On this sample we have applied a standard fitting procedure to measure stellar masses. We compute the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function and the resulting Stellar Mass Density up to redshift ~4, taking into proper account the biases and incompleteness effects. Within the well known trend of global decline of the Stellar Mass Density with redshift, we show that the decline of the more massive galaxies may be described by an exponential timescale of ~6 Gyrs up to z~1.5, and proceeds much faster thereafter, with an exponential timescale of ~0.6 Gyrs. We also show that there is some evidence for a differential evolution of the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function, with low mass galaxies evolving faster than more massive ones up to z~1-1.5 and that the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function remains remarkably flat (i.e. with a slope close to the local one) up to z~1-1.3. The observed behaviour of the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function is consistent with a scenario where about 50% of present-day massive galaxies formed at a vigorous rate in the epoch between redshift 4 and 1.5, followed by a milder evolution until the present-day epoch.
