Notoxus indicus

description: Notoxus indicus species-group
 Diagnosis. Elytral apices in males simple, lacking a distinct apical tubercle / notch; median lobe of aedeagus simple in middle part, mostly asymmetrical apically, lacking distinct dorsal plate; latero-basal fovea of abdominal sternum III rather shallow, forming narrow impression along basal sulcus of sternum.
 Species included. Notoxus assamensis Krekich-Strassoldo, 1913, N. bellus Krekich-Strassoldo, 1928, N. confluens Krekich-Strassoldo, 1928, N. distortus sp. nov., N. donckieri Pic, 1908, N. hilaris sp. nov., N. indicus Krekich-Strassoldo, 1914, N. iuvenis sp. nov., and N. pachodemba sp. nov.
 Remarks. A well-known European species, Notoxus trifasciatus Rossi, 1792, and several related Palaearctic species, ranging eastwards as far as Kazachstan (CHANDLER et al. 2008), share the simple male elytral apices of the N. indicus species-group, but differ by the more conspicuous, rather sharply raised crest of the pronotal horn and the male aedeagal characters: median lobe symmetrical, more or less deeply incised apically, and parameres with small latero-basal projection.

description: Cu(In,Ga)Se2films are used as absorber layers in chalcopyrite thin filmsolar cells. As the gallium concentration in the absorber can be used to control the band gap, there have been many efforts to vary the gallium concentration in depth to gain an optimum balance of light absorption, carrier collection, and recombination at different depths of the absorber film, leading to improved quantum efficiency. In this study, we investigate the effect of the maximum substrate temperature during film growth on the depth dependent gallium concentration. For the in-depth gallium concentration analyses, we use two techniques, covering complementary depth ranges. Angle dependent soft x-ray emission spectroscopy provides access to information depths between 20 and 470 nm, which covers the depth range of the space charge region, where most of the photoexcited carriers are generated. Therefore, this depth range is of particular interest. To complement this investigation we use secondary neutral mass spectrometry, which destructively probes the whole thickness of the absorber (≈2 μm). The two methods show increasingly pronounced gallium and indium gradients with decreasing maximum substrate temperature. The probing of the complementary depth ranges of the absorbers gives a consistent picture of the in-depth gallium distribution, which provides a solid basis for a comprehensive discussion about the effect of a reduced substrate temperature on the formation of gallium gradients in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 and the device performance of the corresponding reference solar cells.

description: We investigate the possible commensurabilities to be expected when two protoplanets in the Jovian mass range, gravitationally interacting with each other and an external protoplanetary disc, are driven by disc induced orbital migration of the outer protoplanet into a commensurability which is then maintained in subsequent evolution. We find that for a variety of protoplanet masses and typical protoplanetary disc properties, as well as the setting up of 2:1 commensurabilities of the type recently observed in GJ876, 3:1 commensurabilities are often formed, in addition to 4:1, 5:1, and 5:2 commensurabilities which occur less frequently. The higher order commensurabilites are favoured when either one of the planets is massive, or the inner planet begins with a significant orbital eccentricity. Detection of such commensurabilities could yield important information relating to the operation of protoplanet disc interactions during and shortly post formation.

Parsec-Scale Jet Polarization Properties of a Complete Sample of Active Galactic Nuclei at 43 GHz

description: We present results from the highest resolution polarization imaging survey of a complete sample of extragalactic radio sources carried out to date. Our sample consists of a statistically complete flat-spectrum subset of 32 AGNs from the Pearson-Readhead survey, which has been studied at a variety of wavelengths and resolutions, including space-VLBI. Our observations were made with the VLBA at 43 GHz, where the relatively higher resolution and weaker opacity effects have allowed us to probe magnetic field structures in the jets of these AGNs much closer to the central engine than in previous studies. At 43 GHz, the bulk of the total intensity and polarized emission in most flat-spectrum AGNs originates from an unresolved core component located at the extreme end of a faint jet. The luminosity of the core is positively correlated with the total source luminosity in soft x-rays, in the optical, and at 5 GHz. The most strongly polarized cores display electric vectors that are roughly aligned with the jet axis, which is consistent with a strong transverse shock that enhances the perpendicular component of the jet magnetic field. Sources with highly polarized cores also tend to have high optical polarizations and flatter overall radio spectra. Approximately half of the jets in our sample display apparently bent morphologies that are suggestive of streaming motions along a helical path. The straightest jets in the sample tend to display slower superluminal speeds than those that are significantly bent. We also confirm that intrinsic differences in the magnetic field properties of BL Lacertae objects and quasars previously seen on scales of tens of milliarcseconds are also present in regions much closer to the base of the jet.

description: Derivation of a reduced effective model allows for a unified treatment and discussion of the $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg model on a triangular and kagome lattice. Calculating thermodynamic quantities, i.e. the entropy $s(T)$ and uniform susceptibility $χ_0(T)$, numerically on systems up to effectively $N=48$ sites we show by comparing to full-model results that low-$T$ properties are well represented within the reduced model. Moreover, we find in the spin-liquid regime similar variation of $s(T)$ as well as $χ_0(T)$ in both models down to $T \ll J_1$. In particular, the spin liquid appears to be characterized by Wilson ratio vanishing at low $T$, indicating on the low-lying singlet dominating over the triplet excitations.

description: We investigate the possibility of reconstructing the initial spectrum of density fluctuations from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy. As a first step toward this program, we consider a spatially flat, CDM dominated universe. In this case, it is shown that, with a good accuracy, the initial spectrum satisfies a first order differential equation with the source determined by the CMB angular correlation function. The equation is found to contain singularities arising from zeros of the acoustic oscillations in the transfer functions. Nevertheless, we find these singularities are not fatal, and the equation can be solved nicely. We test our method by considering simple analytic forms for the transfer functions. We find the initial spectrum is reproduced within 5% accuracy even for a spectrum that has a sharp spike.

description: Die in diesem Beitrag zusammengefasste Dissertationsschrift nimmt die Gattung der Jenseitsreisen in den Blick und beginnt mit einer Analyse der Jenseitsreise des Apostels Paulus (2 Kor 12,2-4). An diesen Text schließt die apokryphe Paulus-Apokalypse an, deren Jenseitserzählung sich signifikant von der der früheren Petrus-Apokalypse unterscheidet. Um das Verhältnis der beiden Apokalypsen zu klären, wird das sich in der frühjüdischen Tradition herausbildende Erzählverfahren der Jenseitsreise rekonstruiert. Es zeigt sich, dass anders als in der Petrus-Apokalypse, die sich auf die pagan-antiken ›spectacula‹ bezieht, in der Paulus-Apokalypse dieses Erzählverfahren konsequent umgesetzt wird. Auf die Analyse frühmittelalterlicher Entwürfe folgt die Untersuchung der suggestiv erzählenden Visio Tnugdali und des Tractatus de Purgatorio S. Patricii, der seine eigene Medialität unter Rekurs auf den viktorinischen Symbolismus (Hugos von St. Viktor) reflektiert.

description: Offline Signature Verification (OSV) is a challenging pattern recognition task, especially when it is expected to generalize well on the skilled forgeries that are not available during the training. Its challenges also include small training sample and large intra-class variations. Considering the limitations, we suggest a novel transfer learning approach from Persian handwriting domain to multi-language OSV domain. We train two Residual CNNs on the source domain separately based on two different tasks of word classification and writer identification. Since identifying a person signature resembles identifying ones handwriting, it seems perfectly convenient to use handwriting for the feature learning phase. The learned representation on the more varied and plentiful handwriting dataset can compensate for the lack of training data in the original task, i.e. OSV, without sacrificing the generalizability. Our proposed OSV system includes two steps: learning representation and verification of the input signature. For the first step, the signature images are fed into the trained Residual CNNs. The output representations are then used to train SVMs for the verification. We test our OSV system on three different signature datasets, including MCYT (a Spanish signature dataset), UTSig (a Persian one) and GPDS-Synthetic (an artificial dataset). On UT-SIG, we achieved 9.80% Equal Error Rate (EER) which showed substantial improvement over the best EER in the literature, 17.45%. Our proposed method surpassed state-of-the-arts by 6% on GPDS-Synthetic, achieving 6.81%. On MCYT, EER of 3.98% was obtained which is comparable to the best previously reported results.

The Unique Signature of Shell Curvature in Gamma-Ray Bursts

description: As a result of spherical kinematics, temporal evolution of received gamma-ray emission should demonstrate signatures of curvature from the emitting shell. Specifically, the shape of the pulse decay must bear a strict dependence on the degree of curvature of the gamma-ray emitting surface. We compare the spectral evolution of the decay of individual GRB pulses to the evolution as expected from curvature. In particular, we examine the relationship between photon flux intensity (I) and the peak of the νFνdistribution (E_{peak}) as predicted by colliding shells. Kinematics necessitate that E_{peak} demonstrate a power-law relationship with I described roughly as: I=E_{peak}^{(1-ζ)} where ζrepresents a weighted average of the low and high energy spectral indices. Data analyses of 24 BATSE gamma-ray burst pulses provide evidence that there exists a robust relationship between E_{peak} and I in the decay phase. Simulation results, however, show that a sizable fraction of observed pulses evolve faster than kinematics allow. Regardless of kinematic parameters, we found that the existence of curvature demands that the I - E_{peak} function decay be defined by \sim (1-ζ). Efforts were employed to break this curvature dependency within simulations through a number of scenarios such as anisotropic emission (jets) with angular dependencies, thickness values for the colliding shells, and various cooling mechanisms. Of these, the only method successful in dominating curvature effects was a slow cooling model. As a result, GRB models must confront the fact that observed pulses do not evolve in the manner which curvature demands.

description: Risk-factor diversification has attracted a great deal of attention since the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. The academic research in this field, however, has centred on analysing investment performance with little research in other areas. Motivated by industry interest and a paucity of academic research in the field, this thesis examines the behaviour of risk-factor diversification. Specifically, it examines performance, return correlation, and return predictability. This thesis makes a number of original contributions to academia and the practical management of investment portfolios. The first empirical chapter examines the performance of risk-factor diversification across a number of dimensions. Even when limited to U.S. stock and bond risk factors, the evidence indicates that risk-factor diversification offers the potential to outperform asset-class diversification. However, unlike previous studies, this thesis does not find that risk-factor diversification is universally superior to asset-class diversification across all market environments and time periods. The second empirical chapter explores the exceedance correlation between risk-factor returns and reveals three distinguishing empirical facts: exceedance correlations are generally symmetric; where asymmetries exist, positive asymmetries are as common as negative; and normality is rejected for both positive and negative exceedance correlations.

description: We interpret the observed X-ray morphology of the central part of the Crab Nebula (torus + jets) in terms of the standard theory by Kennel and Coroniti (1984). The only new element is the inclusion of anisotropy in the energy flux from the pulsar in the theory. In the standard theory of relativistic winds, the Lorentz factor of the particles in front of the shock that terminates the pulsar relativistic wind depends on the polar angle as $γ=γ_0+γ_m\sin^2θ$, where $γ_0 \sim 200$ and $γ_m \sim 4.5\times 10^6$. The plasma flow in the wind is isotropic. After the passage of the pulsar wind through the shock, the flow becomes subsonic with a roughly constant (over the plerion volume) pressure $P={1\over 3}nε$, where $n$ is the plasma particle density and $ε$ is the mean particle energy. Since $ε\sim γmc^2$, a low-density region filled with the most energetic electrons is formed near the equator. A bright torus of synchrotron radiation develops here. Jet-like regions are formed along the pulsar rotation axis, where the particle density is almost four orders of magnitude higher than that in the equatorial plane, because the particle energy there is four orders of magnitude lower. The energy of these particles is too low to produce detectable synchrotron radiation. However, these quasi-jets become comparable in brightness to the torus if additional particle acceleration takes place in the plerion. We also present the results of our study of the hydrodynamic interaction between an anisotropic wind and the interstellar medium. We compare the calculated and observed distributions of the volume intensity of X-ray radiation.

description: Sustainable development (SD) is a concept with multi-dimensional aspects. Through a pattern of resource use, SD aims to enhance both economic and social growth, while minimizing negative environmental impacts. Vital contributors to SD are the civil infrastructure systems (CIS) which have a huge impact on the spatial and temporal dimensions. Examining the performance sustainability of CIS requires an interdisciplinary approach involving engineering, environmental, economic and social sciences. This hard and complex process necessitates a proper assessment of the diverse conditions under which the CIS operates. As a result, many attempts have been made to develop sustainability performance assessment models for CIS. Nevertheless, all of these models have failed to provide a practical assessment model that has the capability to manage two key facts underpinning the sustainable development concept, namely, the interaction between the sustainability components, and the uncertainty problem that might occur at any different phase of the decision making process. The latter is due to the lack of either information or constraints in human thinking. This thesis presents a new assessment model that would overcome the limitations of previous assessment models. It provides a novel sustainability assessment model that has the capability to consider system complexity through modelling the interaction among the sustainability indicators (SIs), and integrating uncertainty analysis into the overall approach.

description: We investigate the connection between the bubble-resummation and critical-point methods for computing the $β$-functions in the limit of large number of flavours, $N$, and show that these can provide complementary information. While the methods are equivalent for single-coupling theories, for multi-coupling case the standard critical exponents are only sensitive to a combination of the independent pieces entering the $β$-functions, so that additional input or direct computation are needed to decipher this missing information. In particular, we evaluate the $β$-function for the quartic coupling in the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model, thereby completing the full system at $\mathcal{O}(1/N)$. The corresponding critical exponents would imply a shrinking radius of convergence when $\mathcal{O}(1/N^2)$ terms are included, but our present result shows that the new singularity is actually present already at $\mathcal{O}(1/N)$, when the full system of $β$-functions is known.

description: We present high time-resolution photometry of the dwarf nova IY UMa using the S-Cam2 super-conducting tunnel junction device attached to the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope on La Palma. Exploiting the well-defined white dwarf and hot spot eclipse features, we derive an updated orbital ephemeris for IY UMa and an orbital period of 0.07390897(5) days. A white dwarf ingress/egress duration of 31 +/- 2s along with the contact phases of the bright spot gives M_1=0.79 +/- 0.04 M_sun and M_2=0.10 +/- 0.01 Msun, corresponding to a mass ratio of q=0.125 +/- 0.008. The white dwarf eclipse width of 0.0637 then implies i=86.0 +/- 1 degrees. A curious rise with a duration of 30 +/- 2s is observed in the orbital lightcurves during all three observed eclipses. It occurs between the end of white dwarf ingress and hot spot ingress and is blue in colour. We suggest that the source of this light lies in the buried part of the gas stream, resulting in a compact, hot impact cavity.

description: The electroabsorption and absorption spectra of eight homoleptic complexes of the general form [M(LL)3]2+ where M = Ru, Fe, and LL = 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), and 4,4',-(R)2-bpy where R = -OCH3, -CF3, were quantified at 77 K in a butyronitrile glass. Intense metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorption bands were evident in the visible region. Electroabsorption spectra measured with applied electric fields >0.2 MV/cm were analyzed by the two-state Liptay model. Significant light-induced dipole moment changes of Δμ⇀ = 4-13 D were found consistent with a metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited state comprised an electron localized on a single diimine ligand, [MIII(LL-)(LL)2]*2+, in the initially formed Franck-Condon excited state. A low energy feature evident in the electroabsorption spectra was assigned to a direct singlet-to-triplet MLCT excited state. The identity of the diimine ligand had an unexpected and large impact on these transitions. Analysis relative to the higher energy absorption provides a comparison of spin-allowed and disallowed transitions for first- and second-row transition metal complexes. With the notable exception of [Fe(CF3bpy)3]2+, the change in dipole moment for the 3MLCT excited states was less than or equal to that of the 1MLCT excited states. The charge transfer distances for the iron complexes were generally larger than those for the Ru complexes, a behavior attributed to a smaller degree of iron-diimine coupling in the ground state. A striking result was the sensitivity of the extinction coefficient and spectral profile of the low energy electroabsorption assigned to the identity of the diimine ligand; data that suggests electronic coupling with ligand localized triplet states and high spin metal centered states must be considered when modeling the Franck-Condon excited state.

description: Possible high-$T_c$ superconductivity (SC) has been found experimentally in the bilayer material La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ under high pressure recently, in which the Ni-$3d_{3z^2-r^2}$ and $3d_{x^2-y^2}$ orbitals are expected to play a key role in the electronic structure and the SC. Here we study the two-orbital electron correlations and the nature of the SC using the bilayer two-orbital Hubbard model downfolded from the band structure of La3Ni2O7 in the framework of the dynamical mean-field theory. We find that each of the two orbitals forms $s_\pm$-wave SC pairing. Because of the nonlocal inter-orbital hoppings, the two-orbital SCs are concomitant and they transition to Mott insulating states simultaneously when tuning the system to half filling. The Hund's coupling induced local inter-orbital spin coupling enhances the electron correlations pronouncedly and is crucial to the SC.

description: Oxalic acid dihydrate is used to treat varroosis of Apis mellifera. This study investigates lethal and sublethal effects of oxalic acid dihydrate on individually treated honeybees kept in cages under laboratory conditions as well as the distribution in the colony. After oral application, bee mortality occurred at relatively low concentrations (No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) 50 µg/bee; Lowest Observed Adverse Effect Level (LOAEL) 75 µg/bee) compared to the dermal treatment (NOAEL 212.5 µg/bee; LOAEL 250 µg/bee). The dosage used in regular treatment via dermal application (circa 175 µg/bee) is below the LOAEL, referring to mortality derived in the laboratory. However, the treatment with oxalic acid dihydrate caused sublethal effects: This could be demonstrated in an increased responsiveness to water, decreased longevity and a reduction in pH-values in the digestive system and the hemolymph. The shift towards stronger acidity after treatment confirms that damage to the epithelial tissue and organs is likely to be caused by hyperacidity. The distribution of oxalic acid dihydrate within a colony was shown by macro- computed tomography; it was rapid and consistent. The increased density of the individual bee was continuous for at least 14 days after the treatment indicating the presence of oxalic acid dihydrate in the hive even long after a treatment.

description: Nearby interstellar clouds with high (|v| >/= 10 km/s) random velocities although easily detected in NaI and CaII lines have hitherto not been detected (in emission or absorption) in the HI 21cm line. We describe here deep Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) HI absorption observations toward radio sources with small angular separation from bright O and B stars whose spectra reveal the presence of intervening high random velocity CaII absorbing clouds. In 5 out of the 14 directions searched we detect HI 21cm absorption features from these clouds. The mean optical depth of these detections is ~ 0.09 and FWHM is ~ 10 km/s, consistent with absorption arising from CNM clouds.

description: The sensitivity of ground-based imaging atmospheric Cherenkov gamma-ray observatories depends critically on the primary particle identification methods which are used to retain photon-initiated events and suppress the spurious background produced by cosmic rays. We suggest a new discrimination technique which utilizes differences in the fluctuations of the light intensity in the images of showers initiated by photons and those initiated by protons or heavier nuclei. The database of simulated events for the proposed VERITAS observatory has been used to evaluate the efficiency of the new technique. Analysis has been performed for both a single VERITAS imaging telescope, and a system of these telescopes. We demonstrate that a discrimination efficiency of > 1.5 - 2.0 can be achieved in addition to traditional background rejection methods based on image shape parameters.

description: We report the detection of a low-mass companion orbiting the solar-type star HD178911B, the distant component of the stellar triple system HD178911. The variability of HD178911B was first detected using radial-velocity measurements obtained with the HIRES spectrograph mounted on the 10-m Keck1 telescope at the W.M. Keck Observatory (Hawaii, USA). We then started an intense radial-velocity follow up of the star with the ELODIE echelle spectrograph mounted on the 1.93-m telescope at the Observatoire de Haute-Provence (France) in order to derive its orbital solution. The detected planet candidate has an orbital period of 71.5 days and a minimum mass of 6.3 Jupiter masses. We performed a spectral analysis of the star, which shows that the lithium abundances in the system are similar to those in another known planet-hosting wide binary stellar system, 16 Cyg. In both systems the lithium is undetected in the atmosphere of the visual secondary harboring the planetary companion, but is easily detected in the spectrum of the visual primary. We discuss this similarity and its ramifications.

description: Wavelet-related techniques have proven useful in the processing and analysis of one and two dimensional data sets (spectra in the former case, images in the latter). In this work we apply adaptive filters, introduced in a previous work (Sanz et al. 2001), to optimize the detection and extraction of point sources from a one-dimensional array of time-ordered data such as the one that will be produced by the future 30 GHz LFI28 channel of the ESA Planck mission. At a $4σ$ detection level 224 sources over a flux of 0.88 Jy are detected with a mean relative error (in absolute value) of 21% and a systematic bias of -7.7%. The position of the sources in the sky is determined with errors inferior to the size of the pixel. The catalogue of detected sources is complete at fluxes $\geq$ 4.3 Jy. The number of spurious detections is less than a 10% of the true detections. We compared the results with the ones obtained by filtering with a Gaussian filter and a Mexican Hat Wavelet of width equal to the scale of the sources. The adaptive filter outperforms the other filters in all considered cases. We conclude that optimal adaptive filters are well suited to detect and extract sources with a given profile embedded in a background of known statistical properties. In the Planck case, they could be useful to obtain a real-time preliminary catalogue of extragalactic sources, which would have a great scientific interest, e. g. for follow-up observations.

description: STEMMOPS OSORNO (LEVI, 1963), COMB. NOV.
 Synonymy:
 Anelosimus osorno Levi, 1963: 47, fig. 58–61, ♂.
 Types: Male holotype from Chile, Osorno, Lago Puyehue, 16.ii.1957, L. Peña, in KBIN, examined.
 Comments: This small (1.5 mm) species is transferred to Stemmops. It has a distinctly round prosoma (Levi, 1963: figs 58, 59), characteristic of Stemmops (see Levi, 1964b). It bears a large colulus with a pair of setae, and has a hooded cymbial lock system, a combination unique to some species of Stemmops, and a few spintharines, albeit the latter normally have a small colulus (note that Stemmops groups with spintharines in the study of Arnedo et al., 2004, not with Pholcommatines as in the study of Agnarsson, 2004). It further differs from Anelosimus in having only two promarginal cheliceral teeth, with the outer one larger, by having AME smaller than other eyes, and by having a light central band dorsally on the abdomen. The palpal conformation is unlike that of any Anelosimus (Levi, 1963: figs 60–61), but resembles Stemmops bicolor, the type of the genus.

description: Figure S5. The R16/17.GFP protein was detected in the TA muscle at 8 weeks after the stop of protein injection. Dystrophin R16/17.GFP protein in the TA muscle was identified by immunofluorescence staining with the antibodies against GFP, R16 and R17. Sarcolemmal nNOS is also present. The presence of dystrophin R16/17.GFP and sarcolemmal nNOS suggested that R16/17 protein and sarcolemmal nNOS persisted at least 8 weeks after protein delivery. Asterisk: the same myofiber.
