description: Using the CLASH-VLT survey, we assembled an unprecedented sample of 1234 spectroscopically confirmed members in Abell~S1063, finding a dynamically complex structure at z_cl=0.3457 with a velocity dispersion σ_v=1380 -32 +26 km s^-1. We investigate cluster environmental and dynamical effects by analysing the projected phase-space diagram and the orbits as a function of galaxy spectral properties. We classify cluster galaxies according to the presence and strength of the [OII] emission line, the strength of the H$δ$ absorption line, and colours. We investigate the relationship between the spectral classes of galaxies and their position in the projected phase-space diagram. We analyse separately red and blue galaxy orbits. By correlating the observed positions and velocities with the projected phase-space constructed from simulations, we constrain the accretion redshift of galaxies with different spectral types. Passive galaxies are mainly located in the virialised region, while emission-line galaxies are outside r_200, and are accreted later into the cluster. Emission-lines and post-starbursts show an asymmetric distribution in projected phase-space within r_200, with the first being prominent at Delta_v/sigma ~ 1.5, suggesting that backsplash galaxies lie at large positive velocities. We find that low-mass passive galaxies are accreted in the cluster before the high-mass ones. This suggests that we observe as passives only the low-mass galaxies accreted early in the cluster as blue galaxies, that had the time to quench their star formation. We also find that red galaxies move on more radial orbits than blue galaxies. This can be explained if infalling galaxies can remain blue moving on tangential orbits.

Large Phase of B_s-\bar B_s Mixing in Supersymmetric Grand Unified Theories

description: We consider the possibility of a large phase of B_s-\bar B_s mixing in supersymmetric SU(5) and SO(10) models. We find that in the SU(5) model, the magnitude of this phase is correlated with the branching ratio of τ-> μγand the phase can be within 2σof the recent UTfit analysis. In the case of SO(10) models, this correlation can be relaxed and a large phase can be obtained. In this scenario, a non-zero value of CP asymmetry for B -> X_sγwill be predicted. We predict the sparticle mass ranges for the LHC for these models once the UTfit result is accommodated and discuss the dark matter and the anomalous magnetic moment constraints on this analysis.

description: Understanding spin physics in graphene is crucial for developing future two-dimensional spintronic devices. Recent studies show that efficient spin-to-charge conversions via either the inverse spin Hall effect or the inverse Rashba-Edelstein effect can be achieved in graphene by proximity with an adjacent spin-orbit coupling material. Lateral spin valve devices, made up of a graphene Hall bar and ferromagnets, are best suited for such studies. Here, we report that signals mimicking the inverse Rashba-Edelstein effect can be measured in pristine graphene possessing negligible spin-orbit coupling, confirming that these signals are unrelated to spin-to-charge conversion. We identify either the anomalous Hall effect in the ferromagnet or the ordinary Hall effect in graphene induced by stray fields as the possible sources of this artefact. By quantitatively comparing these options with finite-element-method simulations, we conclude the latter better explains our results. Our study deepens the understanding of spin-to-charge conversion measurement schemes in graphene, which should be taken into account when designing future experiments.

description: We examine the dark matter properties of nearby early-type galaxies using planetary nebulae (PNe) as mass probes. We have designed a specialised instrument, the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph (PN.S) operating at the William Herschel telescope, with the purpose of measuring PN velocities with best efficiency. The primary scientific objective of this custom-built instrument is the study of the PN kinematics in 12 ordinary round galaxies. Preliminary results showing a dearth of dark matter in ordinary galaxies (Romanowsky et al. 2003) are now confirmed by the first complete PN.S datasets. On the other hand early-type galaxies with a "regular" dark matter content are starting to be observed among the brighter PN.S target sample, thus confirming a correlation between the global dark-to-luminous mass virial ratio (f_DM=M_DM/M_star) and the galaxy luminosity and mass.

description: One new homologous series of mesogenic compounds containing imine (-CH = N-) and ester (-COO-) linkages as well as lateral thiol (−SH) group and terminal alkoxy chain was synthezised. Molecules in the present work was convinced with respective right structure confirmed with FT-IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Thermotropic properties of the compounds were investigated on a hot-stage plate of a polarising optical microscope and further by differential scanning calorimetry. All the compounds of the series exhibited excellent liquid crystalline nature. Structure-property relationships, the influence of different flexible spacers and the mesophase ranges were studied. Computational studies and the electron density method was performed with B3LYP method for all molecular structures in present work. The mesophase ranges were found to be dependent on the length and flexibility of the alkoxy chain, as well as the presence of the lateral thiol group. The comparative study of the present series with the geometrically related series provided valuable insights into the effect of molecular shape on the mesomorphic properties.
An experimental field study of the effects of interspecific competition of Diaptomus Leptopus (Copepoda:Calanoida) in a montane lake
Creators: name: Olenick, Roberta Jill
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Despite high densities in an upstream lake, the herbivorous calanoid copepod, Diaptomus leptopus, is extremely rare in oligotrophia Eunice Lake in the Coastal Range Mountains near Vancouver, British Columbia. In situ experiments conducted in 1979 and 1980 tested the hypothesis that competition from zooplankton species resident in Eunice Lake prevents immigrant D. leptopus from colonizing the lake. Polyethylene enclosures, each holding 29,000 1 of lake water, contained all experimental treatments. Experiments in 1979 exposed a standard density of D. leptopus to all Eunice Lake zooplankton species at lake densities (control), to all Eunice Lake species at reduced densities (low density), and to all Eunice Lake species except one of Daphnia rosea (Daphnia-removal), Diaptomus kenai (kenai-removal), or Diaptomus tyrelli (tyrelli-removal). Improved performances of D. leptopus in non-control treatments was evidence for competition in controls. Measures of performance included density, number of eggs per female, and adult size. Similarity between D. leptopus performances in control, Daphnia-removal, and kenai-removal treatments plus relatively high concentrations of D. leptopus nauplii in the tyrelli-removal treatment suggested that D. leptopus did not compete with species other than D. tyrelli. However, similarity between tyrelli-removal and low density treatments in concentrations of D. leptopus nauplii confounded competition between D. leptopus and D. tyrelli with diffuse competition from several Eunice Lake species combined. D. leptopus overlapped in vertical distribution and seasonal cycle more with D. tyrelli than with other species. Differences' among experimental treatments in algal size compositions did not conclusively show whether zooplankton partitioned food resources. Experiments in 1980, designed to separate D. tyrelli competition from diffuse competition, did not provide any evidence of interspecific interactions. By increasing zooplankton metabolic efficiencies, cool temperatures in 1980 may have virtually eliminated, competition for algal foods.

Analysis of Polarimetry Data with Angular Uncertainties

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: For a track based polarimeter, such as the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), the sensitivity to polarization depends on the modulation factor, which is a strong function of energy. In previous work, a likelihood method was developed that would account for this variation in order to estimate the minimum detectable polarization (MDP). That method essentially required that the position angles of individual events should be known precisely. In a separate work, however, it was shown that using a machine learning method for measuring event tracks can generate track angle uncertainties, which can be used in the analysis. Here, the maximum likelihood method is used as a basis for revising the estimate of the MDP in a general way that can include uncertainties in event track position angles. The resultant MDP depends solely upon the distribution of track angle uncertainties present in the input data. Due to the physics of the IXPE detectors, it is possible to derive a simple relationship between these angular uncertainties and the energy-dependent modulation function as a step in the process.

description: When the vacuum like energy of the Higgs potential within the standard model undergoes electroweak phase transition, an influx of entropy into the primordial plasma can lead to a significant dilution of frozen out dark matter density that was already present before the onset of the phase transition. The same effect can take place, if the early Universe was dominated by primordial black holes of small mass, evaporating before the period of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. In this paper we calculate the dilution factor for the above mentioned scenarios.

description: The influence of the structure of compounds having terminal isothiocyanate group in binary mixtures with compounds having terminal alkyl chains on the induction of the smectic A phase is shown. Compounds with a triple bond in the molecular core exhibit a weaker induction of a SmA phase than compounds without it. Molecular lengths, dipole moments and polarisabilities of investigated compounds were calculated. Dielectric spectroscopy studies were done for the chosen system to show that single compounds have the opposite signs of the dielectric anisotropy, while the mixture with maximum temperature of SmA-N phase transition in the nematic phase has a positive dielectric anisotropy. In addition, the dielectric spectroscopy results confirm that the SmA phase is indeed nucleated in the mixture. It has been concluded that there is a competition of different factors, like the shape of molecules, their polarity and polarisability affecting the induction of SmA phase. The shape of a molecule appears to be a crucial factor here since it determines the distance between molecules and influences the contribution of dispersion forces.

description: Typically, the twist-bend nematic (NTB) phase appears below the temperature of the conventional nematic (N) phase. The direct formation of the NTB phase from the isotropic (Iso) phase is significantly rare. In this study, we discovered that certain ester-linked bent-shaped dimers exhibit a direct Iso–NTB phase transition. We synthesised two homologous series of ester-linked cyanobiphenyl-based dimers (COOn) and their fluorinated analogues (F-COOn) containing different numbers of carbon atoms (n) in the alkyl spacer chains (n = 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13). The phase transitions of these dimers were investigated using polarised optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The long-spacer COOn (n = 7, 9, 11, and 13) exhibited the usual Iso–N–NTB phase sequence, whereas the short-spacer COOn (n = 3 and 5) showed the direct Iso–NTB phase transition. Lateral fluorination significantly reduced the phase-transition temperatures for F-COOn compared to COOn. The short-spacer F-COOn (n = 3 and 5) did not exhibit any liquid crystal phases. The F-COOn with longer spacers (n = 9, 11, and 13) displayed the Iso–N–NTB sequence, whereas F-COO7 showed the direct Iso–NTB transition. Additionally, we analysed a single-crystal structure of F-COO7 to investigate its molecular conformation and superimposition.

description: The article discusses creativity from a methodological perspective. It takes the point of view of an International Relations scholar commenting on the constraints and possibilities of creativity in incorporating emotions, the sublime and subliminal in academic research. The article uses examples from a study of violence and compassion in Chechnya and examines emotions and open-mindedness as means to tap into something deeper than what the intellectualist model of thinking encourages. It is argued that by welcoming emotions into the field of human sciences the researcher can better harness creative sensibilities.

Therefore, we synthesised and studied two new chiral rod-like mesogens with a molecular core based on two biphenyls connected via ester linkage, with the phenyl substituted by a fluorine atom. The studied mesogens are characterised by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry analysis. They have methyl heptyl in the chiral chain and exhibit an antiferroelectric phase in a very broad temperature range. We investigated their mesomorphic properties and confirmed the phase identification by differential scanning calorimetry and broad-frequency dielectric spectroscopy measurements. Additionally, we compared the studied mesogens with previously synthesised analogous materials. Two mixtures were formulated using a base mixture and new mesogens. The helical pitch of the synthesised mesogens and formulated mixtures was estimated using the selective reflection method.

description: This article is part of an on-going project where we bring formerly incarcerated adults into the classroom to share their experiences of incarceration and illness with graduate nursing and public health students. We present the experience of one formerly incarcerated adult, Earthy, as we consider his transformative process from participant to teacher of Heideggerian concepts of a person. Via a restructuring into poetic lines and stanzas, we creatively present Earthy’s narrative from post class focus groups conducted over sequential semesters. The co-creation of this innovative and evolving class afforded Earthy the safe space to push into the unknown resulting in an ontological journey of practical wisdom and a deeper self understanding that drew him back to a sense of what felt right—the wonder of shared dialogical interaction with others. We view this as a creativity of personhood born from a dialectical and dialogical practice within a ‘community of wonder.’

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: We describe the special relativistic extension of the CRONOS code, which has been used for studies of gamma-ray binaries in recent years. The code was designed to be easily adaptable, allowing the user to easily change existing functionalities or introduce new modules tailored to the problem at hand. Numerically, the equations are treated using a finite-volume Godunov scheme on rectangular grids, which currently support Cartesian, spherical, and cylindrical coordinates. The employed reconstruction technique, the approximate Riemann solver and the equation of state can be chosen dynamically by the user. Further, the code was designed with stability and robustness in mind, detecting and mitigating possible failures early on. We demonstrate the code's capabilities on an extensive set of validation problems.

description: A series of liquid crystal (LC) diluters containing a rigid biphenyl core with a lateral fluorine substituent, a 2,2-difluorovinyloxyl terminal group and a flexible n-alkyl chain were designed and synthesised through classical organic synthetic reactions. Their chemical structures were characterised and confirmed by traditional methods. Meanwhile, the effects of alkyl-chain length, terminal group and lateral fluorine substituent on the melting point (Tm), birefringence (Δn), dielectric anisotropy (Δε) and rotational viscosity (γ1) of LC diluters were investigated. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to obtain the molecular polarisability, dipole moment, frontier orbitals, biphenyl dihedral angle and aspect ratio. Furthermore, their comprehensive properties in low-Δn LC mixture 002 and high-Δn LC mixture P01-F were further evaluated, and it was found that the 2,2-difluorovinyloxyl LC diluter 3FV have a significant advantage in reducing the Tm and γ1 of LC mixtures, and increasing the values of Δn and Δε. The research results provide technical support and theoretical guidance for the molecular design of new LC diluters and the development of fast response liquid crystals.
Art Therapy

description: Based on a Jungian approach, this article will introduce an integrative model to therapeutic change using art therapy methods as practical tools, with the aim of improving quality of life and in the prevention of depression.
In a research study involving six participants, painting, clay work and drumming were used together with imagination and personal dialogues linked to the artwork. These art therapy processes attempted to combine the participant’s experience of inner and outer reality. The effect of gaining more knowledge about their inner reality using dreams and symbols, was that participants gained a new understanding about their personal life. In addition, some participants were able to continue to use art therapy experiences as self-developmental tools after the research study terminated.
Jung’s description of the interactive relationship between the two living parts of the psyche: the conscious ego and the unconscious self; was used as a condition for and a core understanding of a good quality of life experience.
We applied a bricolage research methodology consisting of a phenomenological, a hermeneutic and a heuristic approach.
To reduce the collection of data about therapeutic change, four different perspectives/ attitudes were used: a) description of the therapeutic processes, b) therapeutic developments c) theoretical triangulation and d) therapeutic changes.
An integrative art therapy model emerged from the experimental part of the study as a suggestion for a future clinical model of Art Therapy with this population.
This article focuses on the psychological aspect of creativity related to mild depression with an emphasis on the interaction between the conscious and the unconscious part of the psyche.

description: In their seminal paper (Phys. Rev.121, 920 (1961)) Sudarshan, Mathews and Rau investigated properties of the dynamical $A$ and $B$ maps acting on $n$ dimensional quantum systems. Nature of the dynamical maps in open quantum system evolutions has attracted great deal of attention in the later years. However, the novel paper on the $A$ and $B$ dynamical maps has not received its due attention. In this tutorial article we review the properties of $A$ and $B$ forms associated with the dynamics of finite dimensional quantum systems. In particular we investigate a canonical structure associated with the $A$ form and establish its equivalence with the associated $B$ form. We show that the canonical structure of the $A$ form captures the completely positive (not completely positive) nature of the dynamics in a succinct manner. This feature is illustrated through physical examples of qubit channels.

description: In sublime moments in practice we may be brought close, incredibly close, to what normally remains at a distance. Or we may momentarily discern what has always been before us and so close to us that it has never before been truly noticed. Two different nursing situations show how meaningful, yet ineffable the sublime in practice can be when it is evoked and how difficult it is to articulate aesthetic dimensions of nursing practices without covering them over with theory and theoretical knowledge. We consider the experience of taken for granted breathing when suddenly severe breathlessness appears. What is it to be present to those in extremis, to be close to the inside workings of human bodies? Using Jean-Luc Nancy’s (1993) understanding of the sublime, we consider how the experience of a patient’s breath can be existentially revelatory of nursing practice.

The Future of Agricultural Development - Nigeria
Creators: name: Ogunfowora, Bisi
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 1986
Subjects: Agricultural and Food Policy

description: The Nigerian agricultural problems appear intractable not necessarily because of lack of appropriate agricultural policies but also due to uncoordinated, ineffective, and inconsistent policy and program implementation. A rational mix of smallholder and large-scale farmers will facilitate the exploitation of the country’s agricultural potential. However, these systems must be backed up by a vigorous "back to the land" campaign as well as comprehensive mechanisation policies. The effects of private-sector participation on the future of agricultural development and the potential contribution of Farm Management Association of Nigeria are also examined.

description: Agriculture has gone through a most remarkable transition in the latter half of the 20th century. It has evolved highly efficient systems of livestock production based on forage conservation in Europe and rice growing in East Asia. It is envisaged that by the end of this century few significant areas will remain where production can be expanded onto virgin land. Expansion of agricultural output will have to be obtained almost entirely through intensification of husbandry resulting in a continuous demand for advances in agricultural technology. Over the next decades it is imperative that there is adequate agricultural research capacity in the various agro-climatic regions of the world for each important commodity.

description: Disc-halo decomposition on rotationally supported star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at $z>1$ are often limited to massive galaxies ($M_\star>10^{10}~M_\odot$) and rely on either deep Integral Field Spectroscopy data or stacking analyses. We present a study of the dark matter (DM) content of nine $z\approx1$ SFGs selected Using the brightest [OII] emitters in the deepest Multi-Unit Spectrograph Explorer (MUSE) field to date, namely the 140hr MUSE Extremely Deep Field, we perform disk-halo decompositions on 9 low-mass SFGs (with $10^{8.5}10^{10}~M_\odot$. The DM halos show constant surface densities of $\sim100~M_\odot$ pc$^{-2}$. Half of the sample shows a strong preference for cored over cuspy DM profiles. The presence of DM cores appears to be related to galaxies with stellar-to-halo mass $\log M_\star/M_{\rm vir}\approx-2.5$. In addition, the cuspiness of the DM profiles is found to be a strong function of the recent star-formation activity. Both of these results are interpreted as evidence for feedback-induced core formation in the Cold Dark Matter context.

description: The Institute for Natural Resource Analysis and Management (INRAM) has undertaken an effort to database and georeference the biological museum collections from Eastern New Mexico University (ENMU), New Mexico State University (NMSU), the Museum of Southwestern Biology (MSB) at the University of New Mexico (UNM) and Western New Mexico University (WNMU). This document presents our goals and proposed general procedures for georeferencing these museum collections. Our process has been to analyze the procedures of other georeferencing projects, particularly that of the Mammal Networked Information System (MaNIS), and produce a methodology that is as good or better than those attempted to date.

description: We present a novel way to synthesise the radio emission from extensive air showers. It is a hybrid approach which uses a single microscopic Monte-Carlo simulation to generate the radio emission from a shower with a different longitudinal evolution, primary particle type and energy. The method employs semi-analytical relations which only depend on the shower parameters to transform the radio signal in the simulated antennas. We apply this method to vertical air showers with energies ranging from 10$^{17}$eV to 10$^{19}$eV and compare the results with CoREAS using two different metrics. In order to gauge the performance over our simulation set, we subsequently use every shower in the set as a template to synthesise the emission from the other showers. Depending on the scoring metric, template synthesis reconstructs the radio emission with an accuracy of 5 to 10%.

description: Solar wind electrons play an important role in the energy balance of the solar wind acceleration by carrying energy into interplanetary space in the form of electron heat flux. The heat flux is stored in the complex electron velocity distribution functions (VDFs) shaped by expansion, Coulomb collisions, and field-particle interactions. We investigate how the suprathermal electron deficit in the anti-strahl direction, which was recently discovered in the near-Sun solar wind, drives a kinetic instability and creates whistler waves with wave vectors that are quasi-parallel to the direction of the background magnetic field. We combine high-cadence measurements of electron pitch-angle distribution functions and electromagnetic waves provided by Solar Orbiter during its first orbit. Our case study is based on a burst-mode data interval from the Electrostatic Analyser System (SWA-EAS) at a distance of 112 $R_S$ (0.52 au) from the Sun, during which several whistler wave packets were detected by Solar Orbiter's Radio and Plasma Waves (RPW) instrument. The sunward deficit creates kinetic conditions under which the quasi-parallel whistler wave is driven unstable. We directly test our predictions for the existence of these waves through solar wind observations. We find whistler waves that are quasi-parallel and almost circularly polarised, propagating away from the Sun, coinciding with a pronounced sunward deficit in the electron VDF. The cyclotron-resonance condition is fulfilled for electrons moving in the direction opposite to the direction of wave propagation, with energies corresponding to those associated with the sunward deficit.
