description: The number of persons forcibly displaced worldwide has surged to levels higher than at any other point in history. In 2019 this population reached 79.5 million, with 26 million persons forced to flee across borders or state lines under the title or status of refugee (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees [UNHCR], 2020). Of these 26 million persons, 52 percent are children under the age of 18, with 7.1 million children of school age, and 3.7 million of these school aged children living in regions without access to schooling (UNHCR, 2019). In 2018, 28,076 new Canadian citizens arrived from refugee backgrounds, with 10,999 of these new entrants, under the age of 17 (Mendicino, 2019). In the present study, academic settings were viewed as offering a viable point of observation in seeking to gain insight and understanding into the academic experiences of students from refugee backgrounds. A qualitative meta-synthesis was used to systematically source, appraise, and analyze qualitative research findings to explore the academic successes of students from refugee backgrounds (Sandelowski & Barroso, 2007; Spradley, 1979). Findings from 16 qualitative research reports were thematically analyzed to highlight seven themes, 26 subthemes, and 90 features of academic programs that were shown to contribute to the academic success of refugee students. Thematic results generated from the meta-synthesis highlight the importance of: educator care and creativity; representation of student language, culture, and experience; and additional school supports. These factors were shown to provide cumulative support for student learning and success, in addition to fostering feelings of safety, connection, enjoyment, and engagement for students from refugee backgrounds.

description: We evaluate the dressed Polyakov loop for hot quark matter in strong magnetic field. To compute the finite temperature effective potential, we use the Polyakov extended Nambu-Jona Lasinio model with eight-quark interactions taken into account. The bare quark mass is adjusted in order to reproduce the physical value of the vacuum pion mass. Our results show that the dressed Polyakov loop is very sensitive to the strenght of the magnetic field, and it is capable to capture both the deconfinement crossover and the chiral crossover. Besides, we compute self-consistently the phase diagram of the model. We find a tiny split of the two aforementioned crossovers as the strength of the magnetic field is increased. Concretely, for the largest value of magnetic field investigated here, $eB=19 m_π^2$, the split is of the order of $10\%$. A qualitative comparison with other effective models and recent Lattice results is also performed.

description: This work describes three phase dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on reverse micelles for the determination of Q-markers of cinnamic acids (caffeic acid, p-hydroxycinnamic acid, ferulic acid, and cinnamic acid) in traditional Chinese medicine followed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. The variables influencing the procedure were optimized separately. Enrichment factors from 110 to 189, linearities from 1.2 to 960 ng mL−1 with r2 exceeding 0.9943, detection limits from 0.1 to 0.6 ng mL−1, excellent precision with relative standard deviations below 5.6%, and good relative recoveries from 80.0% to 113.3% were achieved. In addition, the mechanism of the procedure was explored by comparison with conventional dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction at the optimum conditions. The results showed that the developed microextraction procedure improved the sensitivity and consumed less organic solvent and is a greener approach.

description: We develop anisotropic pseudo-spin antiferromagnetic Heisenberg models for monoclinically distorted double perovskites. We focus on these A$_2$BB'O$_6$ materials that have magnetic moments on the 4d or 5d transition metal B' ions, which form a face-centered cubic lattice. In these models, we consider local z-axis distortion of B'-O octahedra, affecting relative occupancy of $t_{2g}$ orbitals, along with geometric effects of the monoclinic distortion, and spin-orbit coupling. The resulting pseudo-spin-1/2 models are solved in the saddle-point limit of the Sp(N) generalization of the Heisenberg model. The spin S in the SU(2) case generalizes as a parameter $κ$ controlling quantum fluctuation in the Sp(N) case. We consider two different models that may be appropriate for these systems. In particular, using Heisenberg exchange parameters for La$_2$LiMoO$_6$ from a spin-dimer calculation, we conclude that this pseudo-spin-1/2 system may order, but must be very close to a disordered spin liquid state.

description: Motivated by the two charged bottomonium-like resonances $Z_b$(10610) and $Z_b$(10650) newly observed by the Belle collaboration, the possible molecular states composed of a pair of heavy mesons, $B\bar{B}, B\bar{B}^*, B^*\bar{B}^*, B_s\bar{B}$, etc (in S-wave), are investigated in the framework of chiral quark models by the Gaussian expansion method. The bound states $B\bar{B}^*$ and $B^*\bar{B}^*$ with quantum numbers $I(J^{PC})=1(1^{+-})$, which are good candidates for the $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ respectively, are obtained. Other three bound states $B\bar{B}^*$ with $I(J^{PC})=0(1^{++})$, $B^*\bar{B}^*$ with $I(J^{PC})=1(0^{++}), 0(2^{++})$ are predicted. These states may be observed in open-bottom or hidden-bottom decay channel of highly excited $Υ$. When extending directly the quark model to the hidden color channel of the multi-quark system, more deeply bound states are found. Future experimental search of those states will cast doubt on the validity of applying the chiral constituent quark model to the hidden color channel directly.

description: We explore consequences of the recently discovered duality between color and kinematics, which states that kinematic numerators in a diagrammatic expansion of gauge-theory amplitudes can be arranged to satisfy Jacobi-like identities in one-to-one correspondence to the associated color factors. Using on-shell recursion relations, we give a field-theory proof showing that the duality implies that diagrammatic numerators in gravity are just the product of two corresponding gauge-theory numerators, as previously conjectured. These squaring relations express gravity amplitudes in terms of gauge-theory ingredients, and are a recasting of the Kawai, Lewellen and Tye relations. Assuming that numerators of loop amplitudes can be arranged to satisfy the duality, our tree-level proof immediately carries over to loop level via the unitarity method. We then present a Yang-Mills Lagrangian whose diagrams through five points manifestly satisfy the duality between color and kinematics. The existence of such Lagrangians suggests that the duality also extends to loop amplitudes, as confirmed at two and three loops in a concurrent paper. By "squaring" the novel Yang-Mills Lagrangian we immediately obtain its gravity counterpart. We outline the general structure of these Lagrangians for higher points. We also write down various new representations of gauge-theory and gravity amplitudes that follow from the duality between color and kinematics.

description: The study of strongly correlated quantum gases in two dimensions has important ramifications for understanding many intriguing pheomena in solid materials, such as high-$T_{c}$ superconductivity and the fractional quantum Hall effect. However, theoretical methods are plagued by the existence of significant quantum fluctuations. Here, we present two- and three-body exact solutions for both fermions and bosons trapped in a two-dimensional harmonic potential, with an arbitrary $s$-wave scattering length. These few-particle solutions link in a natural way to the high-temperature properties of many-particle systems via a quantum virial expansion. As a concrete example, using the energy spectrum of few fermions, we calculate the second and third virial coefficients of a strongly interacting Fermi gas in two dimensions, and consequently investigate its high-temperature thermodynamics. Our thermodynamic results may be useful for ongoing experiments on two-dimensional Fermi gases. These exact results also provide an unbiased benchmark for quantum Monte Carlo simulations of two-dimensional Fermi gases at high temperatures.

description: We report on a 63ks Chandra observation of the X-ray transient Swift J195509.6+261406 discovered as the afterglow of what was first believed to be a long duration Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB 070610). The outburst of this source was characterized by unique optical flares on timescales of second or less, morphologically similar to the short X-ray bursts usually observed from magnetars. Our Chandra observation was performed ~2 years after the discovery of the optical and X-ray flaring activity of this source, catching it in its quiescent state. We derive stringent upper limits on the quiescent emission of Swif J195509.6+261406 which argues against the possibility of this object being a typical magnetar. Our limits show that the most viable interpretation on the nature of this peculiar bursting source, is a binary system hosting a black hole or a neutron star with a low mass companion star (< 0.12 M_{\odot}), and with an orbital period smaller than a few hours.

description: La presente ricerca è mirata ad approfondire la realtà della pluriclasse, i metodi organizzativi e di lavoro adottati e l’efficacia per l'apprendimento e lo sviluppo delle competenze degli allievi. Durante il terzo anno di pratica professionale svolta in una classe mista di primo ciclo, in cui ho potuto osservare diverse pratiche di organizzazione e metodologia d’insegnamento, il mio interesse è accresciuto sempre più e mi ha portato ad ampliare i miei orizzonti anche al di fuori della sede in cui opero. Per raccogliere le informazioni necessarie sul tema ho optato per un'analisi quantitativa proponendo questionari e interviste a docenti con differenti anni di esperienza scolastica e di insegnamento in una classe mista. I risultati ottenuti, in linea con le mie aspettative, hanno permesso di creare un progetto finale per gli anni futuri, prendendo in considerazione gli aspetti ritenuti validi e sfruttabili. Si dovranno poi apportare quelle modifiche necessarie per rendere funzionale la propria pluriclasse.
Observed Scaling Relations for Strong Lensing Clusters: Consequences for Cosmology and Cluster Assembly

description: Scaling relations of observed galaxy cluster properties are useful tools for constraining cosmological parameters as well as cluster formation histories. One of the key cosmological parameters, sigma8, is constrained using observed clusters of galaxies, although current estimates of sigma8 from the scaling relations of dynamically relaxed galaxy clusters are limited by the large scatter in the observed cluster mass-temperature (M-T) relation. With a sample of eight strong lensing clusters at 0.3 < z <0.8, we find that the observed cluster concentration-mass relation can be used to reduce the M-T scatter by a factor of 6. Typically only relaxed clusters are used to estimate sigma8, but combining the cluster concentration-mass relation with the M-T relation enables the inclusion of unrelaxed clusters as well. Thus, the resultant gains in the accuracy of sigma8 measurements from clusters are twofold: the errors on sigma8 are reduced and the cluster sample size is increased. Therefore, the statistics on sigma8 determination from clusters are greatly improved by the inclusion of unrelaxed clusters. Exploring cluster scaling relations further, we find that the correlation between brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) luminosity and cluster mass offers insight into the assembly histories of clusters. We find preliminary evidence for a steeper BCG luminosity - cluster mass relation for strong lensing clusters than the general cluster population, hinting that strong lensing clusters may have had more active merging histories.

description: The role of spontaneous emission in the interaction between a two-level atom and a pumped micro-cavity in the strong coupling regime is discussed in this paper. Especially, using a quantum Monte-Carlo simulation, we investigate atomic spatial coherence. It is found that atomic spontaneous emission destroys the coherence between neighboring lattice sites, while the cavity decay does not. Furthermore, our computation of the spatial coherence function shows that the in-site locality is little affected by the cavity decay, but greatly depends on the cavity pump amplitude.

description: A less studied numerical characteristic of periodic orbits of area preserving twist maps of the annulus is the twist or torsion number, called initially the amount of rotation. It measures the average rotation of tangent vectors under the action of the derivative of the map along that orbit, and characterizes the degree of complexity of the dynamics. The aim of this paper is to give new insights into the definition and properties of the twist number, and to relate its range to the order properties of periodic orbits. We derive an algorithm to deduce the exact value or a demi--unit interval containing the exact value of the twist number. We prove that at a period-doubling bifurcation threshold of a mini-maximizing periodic orbit, the new born doubly periodic orbit has the absolute twist number larger than the absolute twist of the original orbit after bifurcation. We give examples of periodic orbits having large absolute twist number, that are badly ordered, and illustrate how characterization of these orbits only by their residue can lead to incorrect results. In connection to the study of the twist number of periodic orbits of standard--like maps we introduce a new tool, called 1-cone function. We prove that the location of minima of this function with respect to the vertical symmetry lines of a standard-like map encodes a valuable information on the symmetric periodic orbits and their twist number.

description: We present new 1--1.25 micron (z and J band) Subaru/IRCS and 2 micron (K band) VLT/NaCo data for HR 8799 and a rereduction of the 3--5 micron MMT/Clio data first presented by Hinz et al. (2010). Our VLT/NaCo data yields a detection of a fourth planet at a projected separation of ~ 15 AU -- "HR 8799e". We also report new, albeit weak detections of HR 8799b at 1.03 microns and 3.3 microns. Empirical comparisons to field brown dwarfs show that at least HR 8799b and HR8799c, and possibly HR 8799d, have near-to-mid IR colors/magnitudes significantly discrepant from the L/T dwarf sequence. Standard cloud deck atmosphere models appropriate for brown dwarfs provide only (marginally) statistically meaningful fits to HR 8799b and c for unphysically small radii. Models with thicker cloud layers not present in brown dwarfs reproduce the planets' SEDs far more accurately and without the need for rescaling the planets' radii. Our preliminary modeling suggests that HR 8799b has log(g) = 4--4.5, Teff = 900K, while HR 8799c, d, and (by inference) e have log(g) = 4--4.5, Teff = 1000--1200K. Combining results from planet evolution models and new dynamical stability limits implies that the masses of HR 8799b, c, d, and e are 6--7 Mj, 7--10 Mj, 7--10 Mj and 7--10 Mj. 'Patchy" cloud prescriptions may provide even better fits to the data and may lower the estimated surface gravities and masses. Finally, contrary to some recent claims, forming the HR 8799 planets by core accretion is still plausible, although such systems are likely rare.

public transport

description: Safe public transport is essential for reaching a socially just and inclusive green transition. Only when people feel safe on buses, subways, trains, etc., more people will be willing to switch from car usage to public transport. However, violence in public transport remains pervasive, with disproportionate negative effects on operating staff, women, and socially vulnerable groups. Global comparisons show that 3 out of 5 women report experiencing sexual harassment on public transport (Social Development Direct), and in some cases 4 in 5 young women (Hooker et al). This is more than two times what women experience in society at large (FRA, EIGE, Eurostat (2024).

Public transport operators, key players in preventing and addressing violence, are also victims of it. Every major public transport operator is confronted every day with violence against staff, which has major consequences on people and on the quality and reliability of the service offered. Thus, the overall prevalence of violence discourages the use of public transport, contributes to an increased reliance on private vehicles, and it forces individuals to accept unsafe conditions or restrict their mobility.

This factsheet provides evidence-based recommendations to guide policymakers and operators in fostering safer and more inclusive public transport systems, leveraging insights from the EU-funded ACCTING project and advocating for the use of the UniSAFE 7P framework.

Visible female power structures in nineteenth century Algeria
Creators: name: Lastiwka, Lanna
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: In 1856 French photographer Félix Jacques-Antoine Moulin traveled to Algeria to photograph “types” and “personalities.” He documented a unique female relationship based on sociopolitical hierarchies labeling it “Moor and Her Slave.” Other French photographers such as Alary & Geiser, Claude-Joseph Portier, and Alexandre Leroux copied this female archetype in their photographic collections. This female pairing explores how gender, class, and race are constructed in a non-colonial and colonial landscape through the modalities of visibility. Being seen or seeing is signalled by the veil—which also denotes class and gender. The veil as a sign of visibility is first investigated in the intimate space of the household, and then to the public space of the Islamic slave trade. Within these two zones, the veil, through visibility, constructs personhood as captured by photography. However, since the photographs are all staged, French influences and ideology alter and change the visualization of female relationships. This thesis considers not only the differences between women pictured as “Moor and Her Slave” but the similarities that drive a mutual fear of visibility. Through a close reading of racializing assemblage, I will consider how race, specifically flesh, is assembled alongside gender and class in French photography. Focusing on Algerian Arab and black African female couples, the new medium of photography was able to represent the cultural implications of visibility and invisibility within female hierarchies and French perceptions; consequently, revealing the political dynamics mapped onto female bodies.
Polynomial growth of volume of balls for zero-entropy geodesic systems

description: The aim of this paper is to state and prove polynomial analogues of the classical Manning inequality relating the topological entropy of a geodesic flow with the growth rate of the volume of balls in the universal covering. To this aim we use two numerical conjugacy invariants, the {\em strong polynomial entropy $h_{pol}$} and the {\em weak polynomial entropy $h_{pol}^*$}. Both are infinite when the topological entropy is positive and they satisfy $h_{pol}^*\leq h_{pol}$. We first prove that the growth rate of the volume of balls is bounded above by means of the strong polynomial entropy and we show that for the flat torus this inequality becomes an equality. We then study the explicit example of the torus of revolution for which we can give an exact asymptotic equivalent of the growth rate of volume of balls, which we relate to the weak polynomial entropy.

T-duality versus Gauge Symmetry

description: We review the recently constructed `double field theory' which introduces in addition to the conventional coordinates associated to momentum modes coordinates associated to winding modes. Thereby, T-duality becomes a global symmetry of the theory, which can be viewed as an `O(D,D) covariantization' of the low-energy effective space-time action of closed string theory. We discuss its symmetries with a special emphasis on the relation between global duality symmetries and local gauge symmetries.

Dark matter distribution in galaxy groups from combined strong lensing and dynamics analysis

description: Using a combined analysis of strong lensing and galaxy dynamics, we characterize the mass distributions and M/L ratios of galaxy groups, which form an important transition regime in Lambda-CDM cosmology. By mapping the underlying mass distribution, we test whether groups are dark matter dominated as hypothesized by the standard cosmogony, or isothermal as observed in baryon rich field galaxies. We present our lensing + galaxy dynamics formalism built around the dark matter dominant NFW and Hernquist distributions, compared against the Isothermal Sphere observed in galaxy scale objects. We show that mass measurement in the core of the group (r ~ 0.2 r_{vir}), determined jointly from a lens model and from differential velocity dispersion estimates, may effectively distinguish between these density distributions. We apply our method to MOS observations of two groups, SL2SJ1430+5546 and SL2SJ1431+5533, drawn from our CFHTLS lens catalog. With the measured lensing and dynamical masses, combined with a maximum likelihood estimator built around our model, we estimate the concentration index characterizing each density distribution and the corresponding virial mass of each group. Our results indicate that both groups are dark matter dominant, and reject the Isothermal distribution at >>3 sigma level. For both groups, the estimated i-band M/L ratios of ~260 Msun/Lsun, are similar to other published values for groups. The Gaussian distributions of the velocities of their member galaxies support a high degree of virialization. The differences in their virial masses, 2.8 and 1.6 x 10^14 Msun, and velocity dispersions, 720 and 560 km/s respectively, may indicate however that each group is at a different stage of transition to a cluster. We aim to populate this important transition regime with additional results from ongoing observations of the remaining lensing groups in our catalog.

description: We study the Fermi level structure of 2+1-dimensional strongly interacting electron systems in external magnetic field using the AdS/CFT correspondence. The gravity dual of a finite density fermion system is a Dirac field in the background of the dyonic AdS-Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. In the probe limit the magnetic system can be reduced to the non-magnetic one, with Landau-quantized momenta and rescaled thermodynamical variables. We find that at strong enough magnetic fields, the Fermi surface vanishes and the quasiparticle is lost either through a crossover to conformal regime or through a phase transition to an unstable Fermi surface. In the latter case, the vanishing Fermi velocity at the critical magnetic field triggers the non-Fermi liquid regime with unstable quasiparticles and a change in transport properties of the system. We associate it with a metal-"strange metal" phase transition. Next we compute the DC Hall and longitudinal conductivities using the gravity-dressed fermion propagators. For dual fermions with a large charge, many different Fermi surfaces contribute and the Hall conductivity is quantized as expected for integer Quantum Hall Effect (QHE). At strong magnetic fields, as additional Fermi surfaces open up, new plateaus typical for the fractional QHE appear. The somewhat irregular pattern in the length of fractional QHE plateaus resemble the outcomes of experiments on thin graphite in a strong magnetic field. Finally, motivated by the absence of the sign problem in holography, we suggest a lattice approach to the AdS calculations of finite density systems.

description: The Fisher-Shannon statistical measure of complexity is analyzed for a continuous manifold of quantum observables. It is probed then than calculating it only in the configuration and momentum spaces will not give a complete description for certain systems. Then a more general measure for the complexity of a quantum system by the integration of the usual Fisher-Shannon measure over all the parameter space is proposed. Finally, these measures are applied to the concrete case of a free particle in a box.

description: This paper outlines methods for experimental modeling of infarction and extracellular registration of cardiomyocyte action potentials. At the beginning of the work, an assumption was made about the change in the type of peak that reflects the current of calcium ions in the case of post-infarction remodeling of the T-system of cardiomyocytes. The assumption was confirmed by further experiments.

description: We present investigations of the interaction between the relativistic, precessing jets of the microquasar SS433 with the surrounding, expanding Supernova Remnant (SNR) shell W50, and the consequent evolution in the inhomogeneous Interstellar Medium (ISM). We model their evolution using the hydrodynamic FLASH code, which uses adaptive mesh refinement. We show that the peculiar morphology of the entire nebula can be reproduced to a good approximation, due to the combined effects of: (i) the evolution of the SNR shell from the free-expansion phase through the Sedov blast wave in an exponential density profile from the Milky Way disc, and (ii) the subsequent interaction of the relativistic, precessing jets of SS 433. Our simulations reveal: (1) Independent measurement of the Galaxy scale-height and density local to SS433 (as n_0 = 0.2 cm^{-3}, Z_d = 40 pc), with this scale-height being in excellent agreement with the work of Dehnen & Binney. (2) A new mechanism for hydrodynamic refocusing of conical jets. (3) The current jet precession characteristics do not simply extrapolate back to produce the lobes of W50 but a history of episodic jet activity having at least 3 different outbursts with different precession characteristics would be sufficient to produce the W50 nebula. A history of intermittent episodes of jet activity from SS433 is also suggested in a kinematic study of W50 detailed in a companion paper (Goodall et al, MNRAS submitted). (4) An estimate of the age of W50, and equivalently the age of SS433's black hole created during the supernova explosion, in the range of 17,000 - 21,000 years.

description: The contribution gives an oversight over the four series of referenda that have taken place in Luxembourg since the introduction of universal suffrage in 1919. For each date, the historical background, the main actors, the controverse positions as well as the impact on Luxembourgish society are explored. Thereby, the article shows the political processes linked to the organisation of referenda. At the same time, it presents the evolution of the discourses in Luxembourg on referenda as an expression of political conflicts as well as more generally on referendum as a political instrument. Referenda seem to have been used on one hand in situations where parliament could not play its role or was suspected not to be willing to do so, on the other hand to clarify questions that seemed so important that the voters had to be asked directly for their opinion. Whereas the current conclusion that referendum campaigns contribute to show or even to deepen societal polarisations is true also for the grand-duchy, one of the more notable findings of the Luxembourgish case is that this has not retained, at least in the last decades, the utilisation of the instrument of referendum. Especially concerning matters linked to the subject of democratic or state structures, the government seems to have preferred to let the voters give their point of view, although the risk of polarisation was given and new anti-government movements often grew from the referendum campaigns. In contrast to the relative success of the referendum in the last hundred years, other instruments of direct political participation have been sparsely developed.
