title: Martin Buber's theopolitical revision of Volkish Nationalism
titleType: Subtitle

description: Since the 1970s, Buber has often been suspected of being a Volkish thinker. This essay reconsiders the affinity of Buber's late writings with Volkish ideology. It examines the allegations against Buber's Volkish thought in light of his later biblical and Hasidic writings. By illuminating the ideological affinity between these two modes of thought, the essay explains how Buber aims to depart from the dangers of myth without rejecting myth as such. I argue that Buber's relationship to myth can help us to explain his critique of nationalism. My basic argument is that in his struggle with hyper-nationalism, Buber follows the Baal Shem Tov and his struggle against Sabbateanism. Like the Besht, Buber does not reject myth, but seeks instead to repair it from within. Whereas hyper-nationalism uses myth to advance its political goals, Buber seeks to reposition ethics within a mythic framework. I view Buber's exegesis and commentaries on biblical and Hasidic myths as myth-activism.

description: Recently, we reported an ion trap experiment with an integrated time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOFMS) [Phys. Rev. Appl. 2, 034013 (2014)] focussing on the improvement of mass resolution and detection limit due to sample preparation at millikelvin temperatures. The system utilizes a radio-frequency (RF) ion trap with asymmetric drive for storing and manipulating laser-cooled ions and features radial extraction into a compact $275$ mm long TOF drift tube. The mass resolution exceeds $m / Δm = 500$, which provides isotopic resolution over the whole mass range of interest in current experiments and constitutes an improvement of almost an order of magnitude over other implementations. In this manuscript, we discuss the experimental implementation in detail, which is comprised of newly developed drive electronics for generating the required voltages to operate RF trap and TOFMS, as well as control electronics for regulating RF outputs and synchronizing the TOFMS extraction.

description: Lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNP) are being extensively studied for bioapplications due to their unique photoluminescence properties and low toxicity. Interest in RET applications involving UCNP is also increasing, but due to factors such as large sizes, ion emission distributions within the particles, and complicated energy transfer processes within the UCNP, there are still many questions to be answered. In this study, four types of core and core-shell NaYF4-based UCNP co-doped with Yb3+ and Tm3+ as sensitizer and activator, respectively, were investigated as donors for the Methyl 5-(8-decanoylbenzo[1,2-d:4,5-d ']bis([1,3]dioxole)-4-yl)-5-oxopentanoate (DBD-6) dye. The possibility of resonance energy transfer (RET) between UCNP and the DBD-6 attached to their surface was demonstrated based on the comparison of luminescence intensities, band ratios, and decay kinetics. The architecture of UCNP influenced both the luminescence properties and the energy transfer to the dye: UCNP with an inert shell were the brightest, but their RET efficiency was the lowest (17%). Nanoparticles with Tm3+ only in the shell have revealed the highest RET efficiencies (up to 51%) despite the compromised luminescence due to surface quenching.

description: Dental caries is the most common chronic disease worldwide, and exhibits profound disparities in the USA with racial and ethnic minorities experiencing disproportionate disease burden. Though heritable, the specific genes influencing risk of dental caries remain largely unknown. Therefore, we performed genome-wide association scans (GWASs) for dental caries in a population-based cohort of 12 000 Hispanic/Latino participants aged 18–74 years from the HCHS/SOL. Intra-oral examinations were used to generate two common indices of dental caries experience which were tested for association with 27.7 M genotyped or imputed single-nucleotide polymorphisms separately in the six ancestry groups. A mixed-models approach was used, which adjusted for age, sex, recruitment site, five principal components of ancestry and additional features of the sampling design. Meta-analyses were used to combine GWAS results across ancestry groups. Heritability estimates ranged from 20–53% in the six ancestry groups. The most significant association observed via meta-analysis for both phenotypes was in the region of the NAMPT gene (rs190395159; P-value = 6 × 10−10), which is involved in many biological processes including periodontal healing. Another significant association was observed for rs72626594 (P-value = 3 × 10−8) downstream of BMP7, a tooth development gene. Other associations were observed in genes lacking known or plausible roles in dental caries. In conclusion, this was the largest GWAS of dental caries, to date and was the first to target Hispanic/Latino populations. Understanding the factors influencing dental caries susceptibility may lead to improvements in prediction, prevention and disease management, which may ultimately reduce the disparities in oral health across racial, ethnic and socioeconomic strata.

IDENTIFYING THREATS TO BLANDING'S AND WOOD TURTLE RECRUITMENT IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN

subject: Freshwater ecology

description: Blanding’s turtles (Emydoidea blandingii) and Wood Turtles (Glyptemys insculpta) are two threatened species that face various natural and anthropogenic threats to their populations. Many of these threats cause a decline in their recruitment, which can lead to drastic declines in populations. Females put themselves at-risk during periods of movement. My objectives were to identify portions of the season that females were most at-risk, potential nest predators, preferrable nest microhabitat characteristics, and movement of hatchlings. I studied movements in adult females of both species at a site in Northern Michigan using GPS and radiotelemetry. I compared these movements to the relative level of risk, or resistance, in the path they chose to take. I found both species had relatively similar resistance movements over the entire season. It seems that Blanding’s turtles tend to make more resistant movements during nesting, while Wood Turtles seem to be less resistant. Neither species seems to take the least resistance path available. I also conducted nesting surveys to determine nesting locations and selection characteristics at the site for both species. I did not find any characteristic that predicts nesting locations. The located nests were also recorded via trail cams to assess for predator activity. I recorded many species on trail camera review, but I did not note any predation behavior, all damage to nest cages were caused by humans and their vehicles. Lastly, I used radiotelemetry to analyze movements for hatchling turtles. Hatchlings of both species tended to make short daily movements until they reached a wetland. I also found hatchling’s succumbed to predation, desiccation, and road mortality. My data suggests further research needs to be conducted to expand our knowledge on recruitment threats. Nevertheless, I suggest active management for the threats we have noted. Nest cages seemed to be relatively successful at protecting nests, so I recommend continued nest cages to prevent or deter predators. Head-starting may be a strong strategy to help hatchlings reach a larger size before release. These larger hatchlings would also allow for larger transmitters and longer tracking times. This will help to prevent lost turtles and further our knowledge on hatchling success.

description: Although the role of complete gene inactivation by two loss-of-function mutations inherited in trans is well-established in recessive Mendelian diseases, we have not yet explored how such gene knockouts (KOs) could influence complex human phenotypes. Here, we developed a statistical framework to test the association between gene KOs and quantitative human traits. Our method is flexible, publicly available, and compatible with common genotype format files (e.g. PLINK and vcf). We characterized gene KOs in 4498 participants from the NHLBI Exome Sequence Project (ESP) sequenced at high coverage (>100×), 1976 French Canadians from the Montreal Heart Institute Biobank sequenced at low coverage (5.7×), and >100 000 participants from the Genetic Investigation of ANthropometric Traits (GIANT) Consortium genotyped on an exome array. We tested associations between gene KOs and three anthropometric traits: body mass index (BMI), height and BMI-adjusted waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). Despite our large sample size and multiple datasets available, we could not detect robust associations between specific gene KOs and quantitative anthropometric traits. Our results highlight several limitations and challenges for future gene KO studies in humans, in particular when there is no prior knowledge on the phenotypes that might be affected by the tested gene KOs. They also suggest that gene KOs identified with current DNA sequencing methodologies probably do not strongly influence normal variation in BMI, height, and WHR in the general human population.

description: The electron g-factor measured in a quantum point contact by source-drain bias spectroscopy is significantly larger than its value in a two-dimensional electron gas. This enhancement, established experimentally in numerous studies, is an outstanding puzzle. In the present work we explain the mechanism of this enhancement in a theory accounting for the electron-electron interactions. We show that the effect relies crucially on the non-equilibrium nature of the spectroscopy at finite bias.

description: Composite vector resonances in the triplet of the SM SU$(2)_{L}$ gauge group are a universal prediction of "natural" new physics models involving a new strongly-interacting sector and are therefore among the most plausible new particles that the LHC could discover. We consider the possibility that one such triplet could account for the ATLAS excess in the invariant-mass spectrum of boson-tagged jets and we assess the compatibility of this hypothesis with all other relevant resonance searches. We find that the hypothesis is not excluded and that the predicted signal is close to the expected sensitivity of several channels, some of which show an upper fluctuation of the observed limit while others do not. An accurate study of the signal compatibility with these fluctuations could only be performed by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations.

description: To gain insight into potential regulatory mechanisms through which the effects of variants at four established type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility loci (CDKAL1, CDKN2A-B, IGF2BP2 and KCNQ1) are mediated, we undertook transancestral fine-mapping in 22 086 cases and 42 539 controls of East Asian, European, South Asian, African American and Mexican American descent. Through high-density imputation and conditional analyses, we identified seven distinct association signals at these four loci, each with allelic effects on T2D susceptibility that were homogenous across ancestry groups. By leveraging differences in the structure of linkage disequilibrium between diverse populations, and increased sample size, we localised the variants most likely to drive each distinct association signal. We demonstrated that integration of these genetic fine-mapping data with genomic annotation can highlight potential causal regulatory elements in T2D-relevant tissues. These analyses provide insight into the mechanisms through which T2D association signals are mediated, and suggest future routes to understanding the biology of specific disease susceptibility loci.

description: Current parameter estimation techniques rely on photodetectors which have low brightness and thus are based on gathering averaged statistics. Recently it was claimed that perfect photodetction will change the nature of sensing algorithms and will increase sensing efficiency beyond the immediate effect of having larger collection efficiency. In this paper we bring up the observation that perfect photodetection implies Heisenberg scaling($\frac{1}{T}$) for parameter estimations. We analyze a specific example in detail.
Forward Invariant Cuts to Simplify Proofs of Safety

description: The use of deductive techniques, such as theorem provers, has several advantages in safety verification of hybrid sys- tems; however, state-of-the-art theorem provers require ex- tensive manual intervention. Furthermore, there is often a gap between the type of assistance that a theorem prover requires to make progress on a proof task and the assis- tance that a system designer is able to provide. This paper presents an extension to KeYmaera, a deductive verification tool for differential dynamic logic; the new technique allows local reasoning using system designer intuition about per- formance within particular modes as part of a proof task. Our approach allows the theorem prover to leverage for- ward invariants, discovered using numerical techniques, as part of a proof of safety. We introduce a new inference rule into the proof calculus of KeYmaera, the forward invariant cut rule, and we present a methodology to discover useful forward invariants, which are then used with the new cut rule to complete verification tasks. We demonstrate how our new approach can be used to complete verification tasks that lie out of the reach of existing deductive approaches us- ing several examples, including one involving an automotive powertrain control system.

description: This paper aims to overview the recent body of empirical work on the importance of Global Value Chains (GVCs) in international production and trade. We begin by reviewing different approaches and levels of GVC analysis. We then consider developments in methods and data. Focusing on the agriculture and food sector, we present a map of GVC measures - at the country and sectoral level - computed using trade in value added data to allow researchers to better assess the countries’ engage-ment in GVCs. We also apply this data to show some stylized facts on GVC partici-pation and positioning in agriculture and food and provide empirical evidence of the economic impact of the GVCs on these sectors. We conclude with some critical issues and speculative thoughts regarding the future of GVCs.

Disorder-free localization

description: The venerable phenomena of Anderson localization, along with the more recent many-body localization (MBL), both depend crucially on the presence of disorder. Here we introduce a family of simple translationally invariant models of fermions locally coupled to spins, which have a disorder-free mechanism for localization. This mechanism is due to a local Z$_{2}$ gauge symmetry and we uncover the connection to lattice gauge theories. We diagnose the localization through long-time memory of initial conditions after a global quantum quench. One of the defining features of the models that we study is the binary nature of the emergent disorder, related to the Z$_{2}$ degrees of freedom. This results in a qualitatively different behaviour in the strong effective disorder limit compared to typically studied models of localization. For example it gives rise to the possibility of a delocalization transition via quantum percolation in higher than one dimension. In connection to the recently proposed quantum disentangled liquid (QDL) we also study the entanglement properties of our models. The QDL provides an alternative to both complete localization and to the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. Our models highlight the subtlety of defining a QDL and we offer new insights into their entanglement properties. While the simplest models we consider can be mapped onto free fermions, we also include interactions which leads to MBL-like behaviour characterised by logarithmic entanglement growth. We further consider interactions that generate dynamics for the conserved charges, which give rise to only transient localization behaviour, or quasi-MBL. Finally, we present a proposal for the experimental measurement of gauge field correlators for our model in two-dimensions. This proposal is based on interferometric techniques which are feasible using current experimental capabilities. Furthermore, the interacting generalizations of our models can be similarly implemented in experiments, providing access to the dynamics of strongly interacting lattice gauge theories, beyond what can be simulated on a classical computer.

description: Circulating white blood cell (WBC) counts (neutrophils, monocytes, lymphocytes, eosinophils, basophils) differ by ethnicity. The genetic factors underlying basal WBC traits in Hispanics/Latinos are unknown. We performed a genome-wide association study of total WBC and differential counts in a large, ethnically diverse US population sample of Hispanics/Latinos ascertained by the Hispanic Community Health Study and Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL). We demonstrate that several previously known WBC-associated genetic loci (e.g. the African Duffy antigen receptor for chemokines null variant for neutrophil count) are generalizable to WBC traits in Hispanics/Latinos. We identified and replicated common and rare germ-line variants at FLT3 (a gene often somatically mutated in leukemia) associated with monocyte count. The common FLT3 variant rs76428106 has a large allele frequency differential between African and non-African populations. We also identified several novel genetic loci involving or regulating hematopoietic transcription factors (CEBPE-SLC7A7, CEBPA and CRBN-TRNT1) associated with basophil count. The minor allele of the CEBPE variant associated with lower basophil count has been previously associated with Amerindian ancestry and higher risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in Hispanics. Together, these data suggest that germline genetic variation affecting transcriptional and signaling pathways that underlie WBC development and lineage specification can contribute to inter-individual as well as ethnic differences in peripheral blood cell counts (normal hematopoiesis) in addition to susceptibility to leukemia (malignant hematopoiesis).

Частью этого опыта развития юридической науки являются научные дискуссии по вопросам становления и развития права, развернувшиеся во второй половине ХIХ века на страницах одного из ведущих ведомственных журналов дореволюционной России - Журнала министерства народного просвещения между представителями отечественной социологической юриспруденции - профессором права Санкт-Петербургского императорского университета Н.М. Коркуновым и профессором Киевского императорского университета Святого Владимира Н.К. Ренненкампфом. В результате анализа двух концепций правопонимания Н.М. Коркунова и Н.К. Ренненкампфа автор статьи пришел к выводу о формировании дискутантами основных аргументов социологического и нормативистского направлений в отечественной юридической мысли второй половины ХIХ века. Аргументы двух ученых - представителей отечественной правовой мысли оказали огромное воздействие на развитие научных школ в отечественной юриспруденции. Материалы статьи позволяют сделать вывод о складывании социологического и нормативистского направлений отечественной юридической науки уже в 1870-1880-х годах.

description: The detection of optical surface brightness structures in the sky with magnitudes fainter than 30 mag/arcsec^2 (3sigma in 10x10 arcsec boxes; r-band) has remained elusive in current photometric deep surveys. Here we show how present-day 10 meter class telescopes can provide broadband imaging 1.5-2 mag deeper than most previous results within a reasonable amount of time (i.e. <10h on source integration). In particular, we illustrate the ability of the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio de Canarias (GTC) telescope to produce imaging with a limiting surface brightness of 31.5 mag/arcsec^2 (3sigma in 10x10 arcsec boxes; r-band) using 8.1 hours on source. We apply this power to explore the stellar halo of the galaxy UGC00180, a galaxy analogous to M31 located at ~150 Mpc, by obtaining a surface brightness radial profile down to mu_r~33 mag/arcsec^2. This depth is similar to that obtained using star counts techniques of Local Group galaxies, but is achieved at a distance where this technique is unfeasible. We find that the mass of the stellar halo of this galaxy is ~4x10^9 Msun, i.e. 3+-1% of the total stellar mass of the whole system. This amount of mass in the stellar halo is in agreement with current theoretical expectations for galaxies of this kind.

description: The weather index-based insurances may help farmers to cope with climate risks overcoming the most common issues of traditional insurances. However, the weather index-based insurances present the limit of the basis risk: a significant yield loss may occur although the weather index does not trigger the indemnification, or a compensation may be granted even if there has not been a yield loss. Our investi-gation, conducted on Apulia region (Southern Italy), aimed at deepening the knowl-edge on the linkages between durum wheat yields and weather events, i.e., the work-ing principles of weather index-based insurances, occurring in susceptible phenologi-cal phases. We found several connections among weather and yields and highlight the need to collect more refined data to catch further relationships. We conclude opening a reflection on how the stakeholders may make use of publicly available data to design effective weather crop insurances.

 Abstract Rimegepant [Nurtec® ODT (USA); Vydura® (EU)] is a calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist approved for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults, and for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults. Rimegepant is available as an orally disintegrating tablet (ODT), which offers convenience and a potentially faster response time than the conventional tablet formulation. In pivotal phase III trials, rimegepant was more effective than placebo at relieving pain and the most bothersome symptom when taken as needed for the acute treatment of migraine. Rimegepant was also more effective than placebo at reducing the number of monthly migraine days when taken every other day for the preventive treatment of migraine. The beneficial effects of rimegepant in reducing migraine frequency and improving quality of life were maintained over the longer term (up to 52 weeks). Rimegepant was generally well tolerated, with no evidence of hepatotoxicity or cardiovascular toxicity in clinical trials. As the first dual agent approved for both treatment and prevention of migraine, rimegepant represents a useful option for the management of migraine in adults.

description: В пореформенной Российской империи обыденным явлением пенитенциарной системы стала категория политических заключенных, особенности и массовый характер которой привели к формированию «специализированного» законодательства. Значительную долю из числа политических арестантов составляли женщины. Высокий уровень образования, знатное происхождение, мировоззренческие установки и цели позволили им оставить после себя обильное мемуарное наследие. Статья построена на актах уголовно-исполнительного законодательства Российской империи последней трети XIX - начала XX вв., а также материалах мемуаров, дающих возможность увидеть реализацию нормативных положений на практике. Подобный подход позволяет продемонстрировать сложное сочетание основных тенденций уголовно-исполнительной политики этого периода, вступающих в противоречие в ситуации выбранного объекта исследования, - гуманизацию в отношении осужденных женщин и ужесточение применительно к политическим заключенным. Нижняя хронологическая граница исследования обусловлена началом народнического движения, повлекшего масштабные политические аресты и процессы. Верхняя - утверждением реакционного пенитенциарного курса, исключающего гибкость законодательной и правоприменительной позиций.

description: We present measurements of radioactive contamination in the high-resistivity silicon charge-coupled devices (CCDs) used by the DAMIC experiment to search for dark matter particles. Novel analysis methods, which exploit the unique spatial resolution of CCDs, were developed to identify $α$ and $β$ particles. Uranium and thorium contamination in the CCD bulk was measured through $α$ spectroscopy, with an upper limit on the $^{238}$U ($^{232}$Th) decay rate of 5 (15) kg$^{-1}$ d$^{-1}$ at 95% CL. We also searched for pairs of spatially correlated electron tracks separated in time by up to tens of days, as expected from $^{32}$Si-$^{32}$P or $^{210}$Pb-$^{210}$Bi sequences of $β$ decays. The decay rate of $^{32}$Si was found to be $80^{+110}_{-65}$ kg$^{-1}$ d$^{-1}$ (95% CI). An upper limit of $\sim$35 kg$^{-1}$ d$^{-1}$ (95% CL) on the $^{210}$Pb decay rate was obtained independently by $α$ spectroscopy and the $β$ decay sequence search. These levels of radioactive contamination are sufficiently low for the successful operation of CCDs in the forthcoming 100 g DAMIC detector.

description: Статья посвящена рассмотрению организации и функционированию земельных комиссий в РСФСР в период с 1922 по 1930 годы. В статье рассмотрены вопросы организации системы земельной юстиции в РСФСР, проблемы формирования кадрового состава данных органов, а также организация судебного земельного процесса. В статье делается вывод о двойственной правовой природе земельных комиссий: с одной стороны они, несомненно, обладали характерными признаками органов правосудия, с другой стороны - порядок их организации и функционирования позволяет сделать вывод о квазисудебной природе. Основной эмпирический материал статьи был привлечен из государственного архива Курской области. Многие документы были ведены авторами в научный оборот впервые. Использование данных документов позволило проанализировать наиболее типичные проблемы, с которыми сталкивались земельные комиссии в период своего функционирования. К таким проблемам относятся: кадровая, организационная, финансовая. Сворачивание политики НЭПа и взятие курса на всеобщую коллективизацию в совокупности с перечисленными проблемами привело в итоге в ликвидации земельных комиссий как органа специализированной земельной юстиции.

description: Genetic variants contribute to normal variation of iron-related traits and may also cause clinical syndromes of iron deficiency or excess. Iron overload and deficiency can adversely affect human health. For example, elevated iron storage is associated with increased diabetes risk, although mechanisms are still being investigated. We conducted the first genome-wide association study of serum iron, total iron binding capacity (TIBC), transferrin saturation, and ferritin in a Hispanic/Latino cohort, the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (>12 000 participants) and also assessed the generalization of previously known loci to this population. We then evaluated whether iron-associated variants were associated with diabetes and glycemic traits. We found evidence for a novel association between TIBC and a variant near the gene for protein phosphatase 1, regulatory subunit 3B (PPP1R3B; rs4841132, β = -0.116, P = 7.44 × 10-8). The effect strengthened when iron deficient individuals were excluded (β = -0.121, P = 4.78 × 10-9). Ten of sixteen variants previously associated with iron traits generalized to HCHS/SOL, including variants at the transferrin (TF), hemochromatosis (HFE), fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2)/myelin regulatory factor (MYRF), transmembrane protease, serine 6 (TMPRSS6), transferrin receptor (TFR2), N-acetyltransferase 2 (arylamine N-acetyltransferase) (NAT2), ABO blood group (ABO), and GRB2 associated binding protein 3 (GAB3) loci. In examining iron variant associations with glucose homeostasis, an iron-raising variant of TMPRSS6 was associated with lower HbA1c levels (P = 8.66 × 10-10). This association was attenuated upon adjustment for iron measures. In contrast, the iron-raising allele of PPP1R3B was associated with higher levels of fasting glucose (P = 7.70 × 10-7) and fasting insulin (P = 4.79 × 10-6), but these associations were not attenuated upon adjustment for TIBC-so iron is not likely a mediator. These results provide new genetic information on iron traits and their connection with glucose homeostasis.
PANTERAs: Revealing extreme stellar wind shocks from massive binaries
Creators: name: Marcote, Benito
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Massive binary systems are known to exhibit strong interaction between the winds of their constituent stars, resulting in the production of energetic shocks that emits radiation from radio wavelengths to very high energy gamma-rays. These systems are called colliding wind binaries (CWBs), and despite their potential significance, only a small number has been identified to date. The regions of wind collision within CWBs are highly efficient environments for the production of high-energy particles, and the high angular resolution capabilities of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) offer an unprecedented opportunity to study these systems in great detail.
 While only a few CWBs displaying particle-accelerating, radio-emitting wind collision regions have been discovered to date, recent exceptional examples such as HD 93129A and Apep -- in addition to the well-known Eta Carinae -- have highlighted the importance of these systems. In particular, for the understanding of the dynamics and efficiency of relativistic shocks, dust production, the evolution of possible progenitors of gamma-ray bursts, and even to the possible contribution of CWBs to the Galactic cosmic-ray background.
 However, the most suitable high-energy binaries have periods of the order of years, and these systems are often overlooked in (optical) surveys due to their small orbital motions. Targeted radio observations utilizing VLBI imaging can be instrumental in detecting and characterizing a significantly larger number of CWBs, enabling us to determine orbital parameters and properties of the constituent stellar winds.
 To obtain a general understanding of the population of gamma-ray binaries, it is necessary to study low-luminosity systems on a large scale rather than relying solely on the most extreme and exceptional systems. The dynamics and physical conditions necessary for efficient particle acceleration in CWBs remain unclear, and the PANTERA-Stars (Particle Acceleration and Non-Thermal Emission of Radiation in Astrophysics - Stars) collaboration is working towards achieving these goals.

description: Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful tool to investigate a broad range of astrophysical phenomena: from the nature of dark matter to the physic of high-redshift galaxies and cosmic magnetism. In this talk, I will present which insights we have gained into the physics of the Universe by combing strong gravitational lensing with very long baseline interferometry and discuss what we can expect from future observations and the new hundreds of thousands of lenses that will soon be discovered.
Accretion and ejection in AGN: a VLBI view
Creators: name: Panessa, Francesca
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The accretion-ejection mechanism acting in Active Galactic Nuclei(AGN) is one of the main astrophysical open issues, being connected to the role
 of AGN feedback in galaxy formation evolution studies. In Radio Lous AGN, radio emission is essentially all produced by synchrotron emission from a relativistic jet. In contrast, in Radio Quiet AGN the absence of luminous jets allows us to probe radio emission from a wide range of possible mechanisms, from the host galaxy kpc scale down to the innermost region near the SMBHs: star formation, AGN driven wind, free-free emission from photo-ionized gas, low power jet, and the innermost accretion disc coronal activity. All these mechanisms can now be probed with unprecedented precision and spatial resolution, thanks to the current and forthcoming generation of highly sensitive radio arrays.
 The origin of radio emission in RQ AGN at milli arcsecond spatial scales will be discussed together with its connection to the X-ray emission and its variability properties.
