description: Understanding the social determinants of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) receipt can inform the design of public health interventions to increase bystander CPR. The association of socioeconomic status with bystander CPR is generally poorly understood. We evaluated the relationship between socioeconomic status and bystander CPR in cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This was a retrospective cohort study based on the Singapore cohort of the Pan-Asian Resuscitation Outcomes Study registry between 2010 and 2018. We categorized patients into low, medium, and high Singapore Housing Index (SHI) levels—a building-level index of socioeconomic status. The primary outcome was receipt of bystander CPR. The secondary outcomes were prehospital return of spontaneous circulation and survival to discharge. A total of 12,730 OHCA cases were included, the median age was 71 years, and 58.9% were male. The bystander CPR rate was 56.7%. Compared to patients in the low SHI category, those in the medium and high SHI categories were more likely to receive bystander CPR (medium SHI: adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.48, 95% CI 1.30–1.69; high SHI: aOR 1.93, 95% CI 1.67–2.24). High SHI patients had higher survival compared to low SHI patients on unadjusted analysis (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.08–2.96), but not adjusted analysis (adjusted for age, sex, race, witness status, arrest time, past medical history of cancer, and first arrest rhythm). When comparing high with low SHI, females had larger increases in bystander CPR rates than males. Lower building-level socioeconomic status was independently associated with lower rate of bystander CPR, and females were more susceptible to the effect of low socioeconomic status on lower rate of bystander CPR.

We derive the extended versions of Maxwell's equations and dark Maxwell's equations (for both massive and massless dark photons) as well as the wave equations. We discuss the implications of this extended electrodynamics including the enhanced effects in the particle conversions under the external magnetic or dark magnetic field. We also discuss the recently reported anomaly in the redshifted 21cm spectrum using the extended electrodynamics.

Tar removal in hot gas streams
Creators: name: Odongo, Anthony
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: Thermal conversion of organic materials through gasification yields gaseous fuel. The fuel gas often requires cleaning and upgrading ahead of combustion in advanced technologies such as gas engines, fuel cells and turbines. Tar is one of the major impurities found in streams, and can foul and block equipment. This study focuses on catalytic destruction of tar in a hot gas stream, at different operating conditions to improve the gas yield and quality. Steam gasification and reforming of tar involves thermal decomposition of tar and the reaction of tar with steam and fuel gases. These processes contribute to complex kinetics of the overall process involving a series of reactions, including: CO + H2O ↔ CO2 + H2, CO + 3H2 → CH4 + H2O, C + H2O → CO + H2, CH4 + 2H2O → CO2 + 4H2, CO2 + 4H2 → CH4 + 2H2O, C + 2H2O → 2H2 + CO2, CO + 2H2 → CH3OH, C + CO2 → 2CO, 2C + H2 → C2H2, & C + 2H2 → CH4. The concentration of each component affects the rate of reaction for each product. Introducing a catalyst to these processes increases the rate reactions and hence the number of successful reactions. The operating temperature, residence time and type of feedstock are other factors that can also affect the gas yield and quality. In this work, a continuous fixed bed-reactor was developed and assembled at Imperial College London, and used to investigate the activity of Pt-, Rh- and Ni-based catalysts, provided by Johnson Matthey. Experiments were performed at temperatures from 700 oC to up to 950 oC. The carrier gas flow rate, the steam-to-carbon ratio and feed gas composition were also varied to investigate the reaction kinetics and reaction pathways. Rh- and Pt-based catalysts had a better activity, thermal durability and corrosion resistance than the Ni-based catalyst. The Rh-catalyst results at considered conditions and above 800 oC were just about the same as the equilibrium results. Rh- had a better longevity and a tar conversion to syngas as high as 98% at 750 oC and S/C of 3. Ni deactivated within initial 30 minutes whereas the Rh- and Pt-catalyst activity remained steady.
Clustering of Galaxies in a Hierarchical Universe: II. Evolution to High Redshift

description: In hierarchical cosmologies the evolution of galaxy clustering depends both on cosmological quantities such as Omega and Lambda, which determine how dark matter halos form and evolve, and on the physical processes - cooling, star formation and feedback - which drive the formation of galaxies within these merging halos. In this paper, we combine dissipationless cosmological N-body simulations and semi-analytic models of galaxy formation in order to study how these two aspects interact. We focus on the differences in clustering predicted for galaxies of differing luminosity, colour, morphology and star formation rate and on what these differences can teach us about the galaxy formation process. We show that a "dip" in the amplitude of galaxy correlations between z=0 and z=1 can be an important diagnostic. Such a dip occurs in low-density CDM models because structure forms early and dark matter halos of 10**12 solar masses, containing galaxies with luminosities around L*, are unbiased tracers of the dark matter over this redshift range; their clustering amplitude then evolves similarly to that of the dark matter. At higher redshifts bright galaxies become strongly biased and the clustering amplitude increases again. In high density models, structure forms late and bias evolves more rapidly. As a result, the clustering amplitude of L* galaxies remains constant from z=0 to 1. The strength of these effects is sensitive to sample selection. The dip is weaker for galaxies with lower star formation rates, redder colours, higher luminosities and earlier morphological types. We explain why this is the case and how it is related to the variation with redshift of the abundance and and environment of the observed galaxies. Studies of clustering evolution as a function of galaxy properties should place strong constraints on models.

Comparison of the effect of internal thermal gradients on the performance of Lithium Ion batteries caused by external air convection versus surface conduction and the consequences on electrochemical model parameters fitting
Creators: name: Ardani, Mohd Ibthisham
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Electrochemical models are essential to solving many problems involving lithium ion batteries. However, they require many parameters, some of which cannot be directly measured and must be inferred by fitting to cell testing data. Battery performance is strongly affected by temperature which is well documented in the literature and can be mathematically represented by the Arrhenius equation. When fitting data to a cell model, the temperature must be constant, known, and uniform, to be mathematically consistent. However, it is impossible to test a cell without causing its surface temperature to vary. This will eventually induce thermal gradients which could affect the cell performance. Despite this, there is a significant amount of literature on fitting test data to isothermal models. It is difficult to quantify the non-uniformity inside the cell, therefore a battery model which accounts for internal and surface region has been adopted. By using this model, the deviation of current between surface and internal region can be up to 4% at the constant surface temperature of 5 degree Celsius. To explore the thermal variation issues, the effect of applying different thermal boundary conditions, using forced air convection and surface cooling plates, was investigated experimentally. This was not to evaluate cooling effectiveness, but rather to show the effect of using data generated with different thermal boundary conditions on parameter estimation when fitting to an isothermal model. When fitting the model to the data, the estimated diffusion coefficient of the positive electrode was four times larger using the data gathered using forced air convection compared to surface cooling at low operating temperature. This was achieved by using a four-point surface cooling rig, which was designed to maintain tabs/surfaces of a pouch cell at the constant temperature, to be as close as experimentally possible to isothermal conditions without interfering with the cell.

description: We have analyzed a set of deep ROSAT observations with a total sky coverage of 40 square degrees to search for clustering of faint X-ray sources. Using the resulting catalog of discrete X-ray sources, we detect, for the first time in X-rays, a positive correlation on angular scales of 0.5'-10'. When corrected for a bias due to limited spatial resolution which amplifies the correlation, the observed angular correlation function agrees well with that expected from the spatial correlation of optically selected quasars, provided that they comprise an appreciable fraction (>= ~50%) of detected X-ray sources.

description: MPI underpins communications in a wide swath of HPC applications. These have functioned very well for the programming paradigms that they were primarily designed for, namely bulk-synchronous applications using explicit message-passing for communication. However, asynchronous many-task runtimes present different communication characteristics than most traditional HPC applications; these communication interfaces are not well-optimized and do not serve the needs and requirements of AMT runtimes. We present an overview of the design of the Lightweight Communication Interface (LCI), a communication library and research tool developed at the University of Illinois to study communication interface and design decisions in the context of multithreaded communication and dynamic compute frameworks, and demonstrate how it can be used to improve the performance of AMT runtimes. We showcase current work with the HPX and PaRSEC frameworks and compare results with a set of task-based latency and bandwidth benchmarks.

The development of novel sustainable carbonaceous materials as substitutes for carbon black in rubber-based products
Creators: name: Fan, Yiran
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Carbon black is a commodity material which is used mostly as a reinforcing filler in rubber and plastic production. Its manufacture is not only energy-consuming, contributes significantly to global CO2 emissions, but uses non-renewable feedstock making it unsustainable. Given the increasing pressure against the continued use of non-renewable sources of feedstock, there is an exciting opportunity to develop alternative materials to act as rubber fillers for environmental and economic reasons. This research has focused on the development of novel carbonaceous rubber fillers produced through the pyrolysis of coconut shell and raw sewage sludge. The basic properties of feedstock were evaluated to assess the efficacy of final filler performance; a Response Surface Methodology was applied to model the relationship between pyrolysis conditions and the key physical and chemical properties of the char filler and to optimise the pyrolysis process. Feedstock were pyrolysed using a laboratory-scale furnace using various temperatures, heating rates, holding times and atmospheres. A comparison was made between char fillers and commercial carbon blacks to establish the optimum production conditions. The selected char fillers were mixed with styrene-butadiene rubber and the rubber products were evaluated for their technological performance. Therefore, a fundamental understanding of the rubber-char filler interaction and the performance of the sustainable fillers was developed. By-products (oil and gas) were also studied as a wider sustainability study embedded within the research. The coconut shell and raw sewage sludge have significant potential for use as a sustainable feedstock for carbon black replacement in rubber manufacture. These fillers were found to have equivalent surface area (2.9 – 318.2m2/g) to a semi-reinforcing filler and provide 52 – 59° hardness, 482 – 962% elongation at break to the rubber products. Further research has been identified to improve post-production processing and rubber formulation which would help further optimize and improve the product for in-rubber use.

description: The interplay of quantum and thermal fluctuations in the vicinity of a quantum critical point characterizes the physics of strongly correlated systems. Here we investigate this interplay from a quantum information perspective presenting the universal phase diagram of the quantum Fisher information at a quantum phase transition. Different regions in the diagram are identified by characteristic scaling laws of the quantum Fisher information with respect to temperature. This feature has immediate consequences on the thermal robustness of quantum coherence and multipartite entanglement. We support the theoretical predictions with the analysis of paradigmatic spin systems showing symmetry-breaking quantum phase transitions and free-fermion models characterized by topological phases. In particular we show that topological systems are characterized by the survival of large multipartite entanglement, reaching the Heisenberg limit at finite temperature.

description: The complex problem of when and how galaxies formed has not until recently been susceptible of direct attack. It has been known for some time that the excessive number of blue galaxies counted at faint magnitudes implies that a considerable fraction of the massive star formation in the universe occurred at z < 3, but, surprisingly, spectroscopic studies of galaxies down to a B magnitude of 24 found little sign of the expected high-z progenitors of current massive galaxies, but rather, in large part, small blue galaxies at modest redshifts z \sim 0.3. This unexpected population has diverted attention from the possibility that early massive star-forming galaxies might also be found in the faint blue excess. From KECK spectroscopic observations deep enough to encompass a large population of z > 1 field galaxies, we can now show directly that in fact these forming galaxies are present in substantial numbers at B \sim 24, and that the era from redshifts 1 to 2 was clearly a major period of galaxy formation. These z > 1 galaxies have very unusual morphologies as seen in deep HST WFPC2 images.

description: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a health problem worldwide, carrying a high mortality rate. Comparison of emergency department (ED) return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after OHCA in relation to emergency medical services (EMS) and non-EMS modes of transportation to the hospital was conducted to assess the impact points of the EMS system in Thailand. This retrospective observational study enrolled all OHCA patients who visited the ED of Ramathibodi Hospital, a tertiary university hospital in Bangkok, between January 1, 2008, and May 31, 2020. Patients were differentiated into EMS and non-EMS groups according to mode of transportation to the ED. Patients’ characteristics and comorbidities, witnessed arrests, bystander chest compression, initial rhythm, and resuscitation treatment were documented. ED-sustained ROSC, ED survival, 30-day survival, and 30-day survival with good cerebral performance category (CPC) scores were monitored and recorded. Multivariate logistic analyses were performed to assess factors influencing clinical outcomes. A total of 339 patients were enrolled, 117 (34.51%) of whom were in the EMS transport group. There were no differences between the EMS and non-EMS groups in ED-sustained ROSC (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.99; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.58–1.70; P = 0.98), or ED survival (aOR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.57–1.71; P = 0.97). There were also no differences in 30-day survival or 30-day survival with good CPC score between the two groups. In our cohort data of OHCA, ED-sustained ROSC and ED survival outcomes were not superior in the EMS transportation group. Evidence to show that EMS transportation affected 30-day survival and 30-day good CPC score was also lacking. Thus, public promotion of Thailand’s EMS system is advocated with a simultaneous improvement of EMS response to enhance OHCA outcomes.
Electronic patient centred outcomes in orthopaedic surgery

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: This thesis primarily reports on the national pilot of an electronic patient reported outcomes (ePRO) system for orthopaedic patients. Also reported on within the pilot is a new electronic patient centred outcome measure (ePCO) with focus on activity participation, and aspiration. At the time of publishing the pilot remains the largest of its kind within the speciality, and the first of its kind with respect to ePCOs. A background with historical perspective is provided for the use of outcomes in orthopaedic surgery, including a discussion surrounding current practices, and controversies. The engineering principles behind the construction of an ePCO/PCO system are also explained, along with the current regulatory guidelines governing them in Europe and the United States. The development and piloting of three individual software platforms are explained, evaluated, and discussed. This includes in the appendix a discussion on their wider context within industry, and within an increasingly technological able society. The final platform (Software C) is piloted in a large cohort both nationally, and internationally. Results from the pilot are presented and discussed in terms of the software usability, the ability for PROs to be successfully digitalised to ePROs within the software, and patient’s opinion of the technology. Objective outcome data obtained from a instrumented treadmill is used as an adjunct to the analysis of the impact of ePROs collected during the pilot, and also helping to address the validation parameters for the ePCO. Finally, the PCO is reported on. This includes the principles providing its conception, and foundation. It is tested using parameters for outcome score validation in both an initial paper-based pilot study, and in a national pilot using a modified digitalised format of the PCO.

Model-based evaluation of the integration of solid oxide fuel cells and electrolysis cells for high purity oxygen production
Creators: name: Taher, Mohamed Asaad Asaad
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Oxygen is used for a wide range of applications, with a globally projected production capacity of 1.8 million tonne per day in 2020. Depending on the economic range and the required purity, various methods are used to extract oxygen. Conventionally, cryogenic air separation is used for the large to medium production scale, characterised by high purity oxygen and relatively low energy consumption, whilst pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is widely used for the small-scale production, with lower oxygen purity and higher energy consumption. A high-efficiency system for high purity oxygen production based on the integration of solid oxide- fuel and electrolysis cells (SOFC and SOEC) was first proposed by Iora and Chiesa in 2009. However, the lack of a detailed methodology and the novelty of such a system necessitated a system-level energy analysis with an emphasis on the SOFC and SOEC to understand the nature of thermal and electrical coupling between them. Here, the initial feasibility of the system has been evaluated considering the lumped-parameter modelling of the SOFC, SOEC and balance of plant. A system energy consumption that is significantly less than that of PSA systems was predicted, and a significant contribution of the stack energy consumption to the overall system energy consumption was observed, suggesting the need for a thorough examination of the electrochemical models. Therefore, the parameter estimation technique has been implemented to validate the electrochemical models based on a 5-cell stack and a single repeating unit SOEC experimental data. A good agreement was obtained between the experimental and model-predicted cell potential across all operating conditions, and key electrochemical parameters were estimated with confidence. The validated electrochemical model has then been integrated into a newly-developed onedimensional model of a planar SOFC-SOEC stack to further improve the predictions of the stack and system performance. Significant contributions of experimental validation and distributed modelling on enhancing the predictions of the stack model were observed. The advantages of the system over PSA systems in terms of energy efficiency and oxygen purity were confirmed. A potential design point of the system was selected via a techno-economic study, revealing an extremely low contribution of the electricity cost to the total cost of production. An adequate thermal integration at both the stack and system levels were demonstrated at the design point.

description: As an alternative to directly integrating their defining equations to find the running coupling $a(μ)$ and the running mass $m(μ)$, we expand these quantities in powers of $\ln\left(\fracμ{μ^\prime}\right)$ and their boundary values $a(μ^\prime)$ and $m(μ^\prime)$. Renormalization group summation is used to partially sum these logarithms. We consider this approach using both the $\overline{MS}$ and 't Hooft renormalization schemes. We also show how the couplings and masses in any two mass independent renormalization schemes are related.

Turbulent drag reduction by oblique wavy wall undulations
Creators: name: Ghebali, Sacha
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: The turbulent flow past a horizontal wavy wall, positioned at an angle to the main flow direction, is investigated by means of Direct Numerical Simulations with the purpose of reducing the drag. The concept aims to emulate the active control by spanwise wall oscillations---known for its high drag-reducing effectiveness---by use of a passive device. The latter takes advantage of the large characteristic spatial wavelength of the active method, which is a crucial aspect for the potential practical implementation on commercial aircraft. Imparting wall oscillations in the form of a standing wave $w_w = A_\textrm{SSL} \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{\lambda_x}x\right)$ gives rise to a so-called Spatial Stokes Layer (SSL), resulting in a shear-strain layer, which induces a strong suppression of the near-wall turbulence, thereby leading to drag reduction. A skewed wavy wall described by $h_w = A_w \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{\lambda_x}x + \frac{2\pi}{\lambda_z}z\right)$ is considered, so as to produce a shear-strain layer that is similar to that of the SSL in featuring the same streamwise wavelength $\lambda_x$. The main points of resemblance between the wavy wall and SSL are investigated, and then contrasted through the identification of significant differences. A reduced-order model is formulated to aid the DNS exploration of the parameter space (wave height, flow angle and wavelength) in the search for the optimal flow configuration. The validity of the assumptions made in the model, as well as its ability to predict the main flow properties, are examined by comparison to the DNS results. Arising from a DNS exploration of the 3D parameter space, a configuration yielding approximately 1\% drag reduction is identified. The response of the flow properties and the drag to variations in the wave height, flow angle and wavelength on the flow properties is reported and analysed. Major emphasis is placed on quantifying the influence of numerical accuracy on the predicted drag-reduction margin and on the computational efforts required to achieve this margin.

This thesis describes the development of a novel kind of magneto-optical trap: the blue-detuned MOT. Unlike in all previous MOTs the light is blue detuned from atomic resonances and drives "type-II" transitions that have dark ground-state sub-levels. A discussion of the position-dependent and velocity-dependent forces experienced by an atom or molecule in a MOT is first used to consolidate recent theoretical work and, in particular, to introduce the concept of a blue-detuned MOT. The design and construction of an experiment that has been built to demonstrate a blue-detuned MOT using \Rb{87} is described. A thorough characterisation of this novel MOT has been performed. At high magnetic field gradients, radiation-pressure-limited densities exceeding $10^{11}$~cm$^{-3}$ have been reached whilst temperatures are cooled below 30~\si{\micro K} by the efficient and robust sub-Doppler cooling mechanisms. The maximum phase-space density measured is $6\times10^{-6}$, which is higher than in most normal atomic MOTs, comparable to the best dark SPOTs, and a million times higher than that reported for red-detuned type-II MOTs. This makes the blue-detuned MOT particularly attractive for molecules where laser cooling and trapping always uses type-II transitions. For the first time, a study of trap loss due to ultra-cold collisions between atoms occurring in the presence of near-resonant blue-detuned light is undertaken. Finally, the experiment is used to demonstrate many new and unreported configurations of MOT for \Rb{87}, showing that a comprehensive understanding of complicated MOTs is now possible, and presenting a clear direction for further research.

description: We examine a class of deep learning models with a tractable method to compute information-theoretic quantities. Our contributions are three-fold: (i) We show how entropies and mutual informations can be derived from heuristic statistical physics methods, under the assumption that weight matrices are independent and orthogonally-invariant. (ii) We extend particular cases in which this result is known to be rigorously exact by providing a proof for two-layers networks with Gaussian random weights, using the recently introduced adaptive interpolation method. (iii) We propose an experiment framework with generative models of synthetic datasets, on which we train deep neural networks with a weight constraint designed so that the assumption in (i) is verified during learning. We study the behavior of entropies and mutual informations throughout learning and conclude that, in the proposed setting, the relationship between compression and generalization remains elusive.

description: The family Tenuipalpidae includes agricultural pests that have garnered extensive attention from the global research community. Despite the economic importance of tenuipalpids, due to their ecology and global trade of the infested plants, there has not been any corresponding and comprehensive research on these mites in Italy in recent decades. This study aimed to determine the species composition of tenuipalpid mites in Italy, update the Italian checklist for the taxon, and include new records and host plant associations of the genera Brevipalpus Donnadieu and Cenopalpus Pritchard and Baker worldwide. The study found several new records of tenuipalpid species in Italy, including four Cenopalpus and two Brevipalpus species. Additionally, one new species Cenopalpus ulmifolius De Giosa, Ochoa et de Lillo was added to the list. The research also incorporated new records of Cenopalpus species in different countries and several new host plant associations and the description of novel taxonomic characters were present for the Cenopalpus species studied during this work, since they were the most abundant tenuipalpid collected in the sampled areas. The study’s findings are crucial for developing effective management for tenuipalpid mites, understanding the fauna composition, and constructing preparedness strategies for quarantine purposes.
How we can better support podiatrists in training

subject: Podiatry

description: Background
A podiatrist’s job scope is diverse, ranging from general foot care to wound management, orthotic fabrication and nail surgery. Many of these tasks require repetitive movements which could lead to chronic strains and pain. This study investigated the prevalence of occupational injuries among podiatrists working in Singapore, the perceived causes and coping strategies.
Methods
An online work climate survey was disseminated to podiatrists working in Singapore through the podiatry association (Dec 2019 – Feb 2020). In the questionnaire, 6 questions were related to injury: type of injury, perceived causes and whether the injury resulted in time off work. Completed surveys were returned to Podiatry Association Singapore and deidentified before analysis.
Results
The survey gathered responses from 53 participants (60% response rate). 44 (83%) participants indicated that they experienced work-related injuries, with 32 (60%) reporting more than one type of injury. 72.7% of the injured individuals reported neck, back, wrist, hand & finger injuries, 54.5% sharps injuries, 31.8% skin irritations and infections, 18.1% reported mental health challenges and 11.3% experienced noise induced discomfort. Amongst injured respondents, 56.8% soldiered on with difficulty, 20.4% of podiatrists took own time-off to rest and 11.3% obtained treatment and rest through workman compensation. Injuries in the upper limb & back were attributed to poor posture, ergonomics, instruments, repetitive movements and work load. Sharps injuries were attributed to carelessness, accidents, time constraints and awkward unstable positions. Mental health strain was attributed to high patient load and the lack of support. Noise induced discomfort was attributed to the lack of access to hearing protection. Dust from grinding and drilling, reaction to sanitizers and exposure to verruca virus in spite of personal protective equipment (PPE) were also cited as work-related hazards. About half of the respondents surveyed indicated that they may leave the podiatry workforce in the next 3-5 years.
Conclusions
Majority of podiatrists surveyed experienced work-related injuries. The two most common types are upper limb injuries and sharps injuries. More can be done to improve occupational safety of podiatrists. Further studies are required to investigate injury mechanisms and potential contributory factors such as ergonomics, repetitive strain and work load.

Nous n'aurions pas attendu jusqu'à ce jour de vous témoigner notre vive reconnaissance des soins que vous avez mis à ce sujet. Si nous n'eussions voulu joindre à la présente une lettre de change de la somme de quatre-vingt seize livres, que le conseil municipal n'a pas hésité à accorder sur vos observations : ne trouvant point aisément à nous procurer cette petite rescription sur Nîmes, nous nous déterminons enfin à vous les adresser le montant franc de port par la messagerie qui part demain mercredi 26 du courant.

Très sensible à vos offres du catalogue des livres de la bibliothèque de Monsieur Chorier, nous ne serons pas moins empressés que vos [...] de les [fol. 69 v] voir effectuer; et en ajoutant cette nouvelle honnêteté de votre part. Nous vous prions d'être persuadés de tous les sentiments qu'elle nous inspire. Nous avons partagé vos justes regrets sur la perte de Monsieur Charvet que remplace assez avantageusement Monsieur Schneider dans la partie des antiquités. Il est le directeur de notre école gratuite de dessin et nous ne négligerons aucune occasion de le seconder dans tout ce qui pourra favoriser le progrès des arts: votre suffrage fera un de ses titres les plus recommandables.

Nous avons l'honneur d'être avec la considération la plus distinguée.

Monsieur,

Vos très humbles et très obéissants serviteurs,

Les maires et échevins

description: We present a broad suite of models of extrasolar giant planets (EGP's), ranging in mass from 0.3 to 15 Jupiter masses. The models predict luminosity (both reflected and emitted) as a function of age, mass, deuterium abundance and distance from parent stars of various spectral type. We also explore the effects of helium mass fraction, rotation rate and the presence of a rock-ice core. The models incorporate the most accurate available equation of state for the interior, including a new theory for the enhancement of deuterium fusion by electron screening which is potentially important in these low mass objects. The results of our calculations reveal the enormous sensitivity of EGP's to the presence of the parent star, particularly for G and earlier spectral types. They also show a strong sensitivity of the flux contrast in the mid-infrared between parent star and EGP to the mass and age of the EGP's. We interpret our results in terms of search strategies for ground- and space-based observatories in place or anticipated in the near future.
