description: We construct solutions for thin black rings in Anti-deSitter and deSitter spacetimes using approximate methods. Black rings in AdS exist with arbitrarily large radius and satisfy a bound |J| \leq LM, which they saturate as their radius becomes infinitely large. For angular momentum near the maximum, they have larger area than rotating AdS black holes. Thin black rings also exist in deSitter space, with rotation velocities varying between zero and a maximum, and with a radius that is always strictly below the Hubble radius. Our general analysis allows us to include black Saturns as well, which we discuss briefly. We present a simple physical argument why supersymmetric AdS black rings must not be expected: they do not possess the necessary pressure to balance the AdS potential. We discuss the possible existence or absence of `large AdS black rings' and their implications for a dual hydrodynamic description. An analysis of the physical properties of rotating AdS black holes is also included.

description: Tree ensembles distribute feature importance evenly amongst groups of correlated features. The average feature ranking of the correlated group is suppressed, which reduces interpretability and complicates feature selection. In this paper we present ControlBurn, a feature selection algorithm that uses a weighted LASSO-based feature selection method to prune unnecessary features from tree ensembles, just as low-intensity fire reduces overgrown vegetation. Like the linear LASSO, ControlBurn assigns all the feature importance of a correlated group of features to a single feature. Moreover, the algorithm is efficient and only requires a single training iteration to run, unlike iterative wrapper-based feature selection methods. We show that ControlBurn performs substantially better than feature selection methods with comparable computational costs on datasets with correlated features.

Geology and ore genesis of the Sam Goosly copper-silver-antimony deposit, British Columbia
Creators: name: Wetherell, Dennis Gene
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Geology, opaque mineralogy, and alteration assemblages of the Sam Goosly copper-silver-antimony deposit are described in detail and a model for ore genesis is proposed. The deposit occurs in an inlier of Cretaceous sedimentary, pyro-clastic, and volcanic rocks. This inlier is intruded by a quartz monzonite stock in the western part of the property and by a gabbro-monzonite complex in the eastern half. Flat lying to shallow dipping Tertiary andesitic to basaltic flows uncomfortably overlie Cretaceous rocks around the flanks of the inlier. Based on careful examination of over 4,875 m of drill core and on limited surface mapping, four stratigraphic subdivisions striking about 015 degrees and dipping about 45 degrees west have been identified. The Clastic Division, composed of a lower polymictic conglomerate and an upper chert pebble conglomerate, is lowermost and is thought to be correlative with the Skeena Group. Sedimentary rocks are overlain by the Pyroclastic Division, a heterogeneous sequence of tuff, breccia, and reworked pyroclastic debris. Tuff, sandstone, and conglomerate of the Sedimentary-Volcanic Division have well defined bedding and overlie pyroclastic rocks. The uppermost unit composed of andesitic and dacitic flows, is the Volcanic Flow Division. Copper-silver-antimony ores at Sam Goosly are contained in the Main Zone and Southern Tail deposits and are associated with tourmaline, andalusite, scorzalite, and corundum (only in the Main Zone). They are epigenetic and cross-cutting relationships are visible both in hand specimen and throughout the deposit as a whole. The ores occur within the Pyroclastic Division and although they are controlled mainly by structure, crude strati graphic controls are also apparent. Other mineralized areas at Sam Goosly are a zone of porphyry copper-molybdenum mineralization in and adjacent to the quartz monzonite stock and a zone of tourmaline breccia. Similarities in mineralogy, textures, and paragenesis among all four mineralized areas suggest that they are genetically related. Potassium-argon dating of hydrothermal alteration indicates that mineralization occurred almost simultaneously with, the emplacement of the quartz monzonite stock. It is suggested here that copper-silver-antimony ores are related to the porphyry system and were deposited in a subvolcanic environment peripheral to porphyry mineralization. Early stages of mineralization took place between 400° C and 491° C; sulfides continued to form as the system cooled below 300° C. During subsequent thermal metamorphism of the Main Zone deposit adjacent to the gabbro-monzonite complex, pyrrhotite and sillimamite formed in an aureole about 90 m wide. Temperatures during metamorphism are thought to be above 750°C and pressures to be less than 350 bar (about 1 km depth).

description: Radio sources with steep spectra are preferentially associated with the most distant galaxies, the $α-z$ relation, but the reason for this relation is an open question. The spatial distribution of spectra in high-z radio sources can be used to study this relation, and low-frequency observations are particularly important in understanding the particle acceleration and injection mechanisms. However, the small angular sizes of high-z sources together with the inherently low resolution of low-frequency radio telescopes until now has prevented high angular resolution low-frequency observations of distant objects. Here we present subarcsecond observations of a $z = 2.4$ radio galaxy at frequencies between $121$ MHz and $166$ MHz. We measure the spatial distribution of spectra, and discuss the implications for models of the $α-z$ relation. We targeted 4C 43.15 with the High Band Antennas (HBAs) of the \textit{International LOFAR Telescope} (ILT) with a range of baselines up to $1300\ \mathrm{km}$. At the central frequency of $143$ MHz we achieve an angular resolution of $\sim 0.3''$. By complementing our data with archival \textit{Very Large Array} (VLA) data we study the spectral index distribution across 4C 43.15 between $55\ \mathrm{MHz}$ and $8.4\ \mathrm{GHz}$ at resolutions of $0.4''$ and $0.9''$. With a magnetic field strength of $B = 5.2$ nT and fitted injection indices of $α^\mathrm{north}_\mathrm{inj} = -0.8$ and $α^\mathrm{south}_\mathrm{inj} = -0.6$, fitting a Tribble spectral ageing model results in a spectral age of $τ_\mathrm{spec} = 1.1 \pm 0.1$ Myr. We conclude that our data on 4C 43.15 indicates that inverse Compton losses could become comparable to or exceed synchrotron losses at higher redshifts and that inverse Compton losses could be a viable explanation for the $α-z$ relation.

description: One important factor which determines efficiency of loading cold atoms into an optical dipole trap from a magneto-optical trap is the distance between the trap centers. By studying this efficiency for various optical trap depths (2--110 mK) we find that for optimum dipole trap loading, longitudinal displacements up to 15 mm are necessary. An explanation for this observation is presented and compared with other work and a simple analytical formula is derived for the optimum distance between the trap centers.

description: In this talk, we will show how we used Randstad history of candidate placements to generate labeled CV-vacancy pairs dataset. Afterwards we fine-tune a multilingual BERT with bi encoder structure over this dataset, by adding a cosine similarity log loss layer. We will explain how using the mentioned structure helps us overcome most of the challenges described above, and how it enables us to build a maintainable and scalable pipeline to match CVs and vacancies. In addition, we show how we gain a better semantic understanding, and learn to bridge the vocabulary gap. Finally, we highlight how multilingual transformers help us handle cross language barrier and might reduce discrimination.

description: The Raman spectrum of microscopic droplets of lipid material on the lumen of the aorta of an apolipoprotein E knock-out mouse were reported in the proceedings of an SPIE conference. Based on the absence of the carbonyl band in the spectrum, at that time it was determined that the spectrum represents free fatty acids rather than triglycerides. More recent examination of the spectrum indicates that these droplets contain dissolved cholesterol, and thus can be used as an early indicator of the atherosclerosis process in animal models during drug development.

Detection of photometric variability in the very low-mass binary VHS J1256-1257AB using TESS and Spitzer

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Aims: We investigate the photometric properties of the M7.5 equal-mass binary VHS J1256-1257AB, which, combined with the late-L dwarf VHS J1256-1257 b, forms one of the few young triple systems of ultra-cool dwarfs currently known. Methods: We analyzed two-minute TESS and two-second Spitzer archival data with total durations of about 25 days and 36 hours, respectively. Typical precision in the data is $\pm$1.5 % for TESS and $\pm$0.1 % (in 1 minute) for Spitzer. Results: The optical and infrared light curves periodically exhibit epochs of quasi-sinusoidal modulation followed by epochs of stochastic variability, which resembles the beat pattern created by two waves of similar frequencies that interfere with each other. Our two-wave model for the TESS data shows that the components of VHS J1256-1257AB rotate with periods of $2.0782\pm0.0004$ h and $2.1342\pm0.0003$ h, which is also supported by the Spitzer observations. As a result, the fluxes of the equally bright VHS J1256-1257A and B alternate between states of phase and anti-phase, explaining the observed photometric variability in their combined light. The projected spectroscopic velocity of VHS J1256-1257AB is remarkably similar to those obtained by combining the measured rotation periods and the expected radii, which indicates that the spin axes of VHS J1256-1257A and B are likely inclined at nearly 90 deg, as previously reported for VHS J1256-1257 b.

description: We seek to compute the fraction of the volume of the Universe filled by expanding cocoons of the cosmological population of radio galaxies over the Hubble time as well as the magnetic field infused by them, in order to assess their importance in the cosmic evolution of the Universe. Using N-body $Λ$CDM simulations, radio galaxies distributed according to the observed radio luminosity function are allowed to evolve in a cosmological volume as using well defined prescriptions for their expansion. We find that the radio galaxies permeate $10 - 30%$ of the total volume with $\sim 10^{-8}$ G magnetic field by the present epoch.

Geology of the central part of the Callaghan Creek pendant, Southwestern B.C.
Creators: name: Miller, Jack H.L.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Callaghan Creek pendant, about 85 k north of Vancouver, B.C., is one of many northwesterly trending volcanic and volcanic-sedimentary pendants within the southern part of the Coast Plutonic complex. Rocks within this pendant have been correlated tentatively with the Gambier Group on the basis of lithologic similarities with type sections of the Gambier rocks to the south. A crystal tuff unit in the Callaghan Creek sequence has been cut by what are thought to be genetically related hornblendite dykes for which a single K-Ar date on hornblende of 124 ± 4 m.y. was obtained. Five major rock units were recognized in the Callaghan Creek pendant. Compositions range from a rhyodacite to more abundant andesites. Generally, these rock units dip steeply to the east, strike northerly to northwesterly, and appear to form a homoclinal succession with tops to the east. The envisaged depositional environment is of explosive volcanism in an arc environment characterized by calc-alkaline volcanism which probably extended along the length of the Coast Plutonic complex during Jurassic and Early Cretaceous time. Plutonic rocks, ranging in composition from quartz diorite to granodiorite and diorite, surround the Callaghan Creek pendant. Pleistocene to Tertiary rocks overlie and locally intrude the pendant and plutonic rocks. Seven mineral occurrences were recognized in the mapped area of the Callaghan Creek pendant, three of which, the Manifold, Warman and Discovery zones, are in production by Northair Mines Limited (N.P.L.). Minor production has come from three of the more southerly occurrences; the Silver Tunnel, Millsite and Tedi Pit zones of Van Silver Explorations Limited (now in receivership). The Manifold, Warman and Discovery zones of Northair Mines and the Tedi Pit mineral occurrences of Van Silver Explorations show various structural and textural features indicating that a significant portion of the sulphides may have concentrated prior to regional metamorphism (greenschist facies) and emplacement of Coast Plutonic rocks. An apparent stratigraphic control, association with dacitic volcanics, local intercalations with exhalites (carbonate and cherte) combined with textural data and systematic variations in assay values suggest that these occurrences are volcanogenic in origin but have suffered considerable mobilization during subsequent metamorphism.

description: Applying the G_{2(2)} generating technique for minimal D=5 supergravity to the Rasheed black hole solution, we present a new rotating charged Kaluza-Klein black hole solution to the five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons equations. At infinity, our solution behaves as a four-dimensional flat spacetime with a compact extra dimension and hence describes a Kaluza-Klein black hole. In particlar, the extreme solution is non-supersymmetric, which is contrast to a static case. Our solution has the limits to the asymptotically flat charged rotating black hole solution and a new charged rotating black string solution.

description: On May 2nd, 2020, the IndyCar racing competition terminates with some catastrophic car accidents. However, no driver is injured, and no car is scratched. The competition, halted by the COVID-19 pandemic, has been completed through the virtual environment of the eMotorsport simulation iRacing. This article analyses the race as a symbolic event, and as part of a historical transition where the production and consumption of sports converge with the techniques and cultures of digital gaming. In particular, we look at the emergence of digital platforms and at the assimilation of spectatorship with active participation; at the posthuman assemblages borne out of the encounter between the bodies of the e-athletes and the interfaces of the videogame; at the emergence of new forms of uncertain and quantified individualities in eSports, and at the rise of nonhuman agencies such as artificial intelligence.

description: We study for the first time the low-frequency ($\sim$150 MHz) radio brightness distribution of Arp~299 at subarcsecond resolution, tracing in both compact and extended emission regions the local spectral energy distribution (SED) in order to characterize the dominant emission and absorption processes. We analysed the spatially resolved emission of Arp 299 revealed by 150 MHz international baseline Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) and 1.4, 5.0, and 8.4 GHz Very Large Array (VLA) observations. We present the first subarcsecond (0.4"$\sim$100~pc) image of the whole Arp~299 system at 150~MHz. The high surface brightness sensitivity of our LOFAR observations ($\sim$100 $μ$Jy/beam) allowed us to detect all of the nuclear components detected at higher frequencies, as well as the extended steep-spectrum emission surrounding the nuclei. We obtained spatially resolved, two-point spectral index maps for the whole galaxy: the compact nuclei show relatively flat spectra, while the extended, diffuse component shows a steep spectrum. We fitted the radio SED of the nuclear regions using two different models: a continuous free-free medium model and a clumpy model. The continuous model can explain the SED of the nuclei assuming a population of relativistic electrons subjected to synchrotron, bremsstrahlung, and ionization losses. The clumpy model fits assuming relativistic electrons with negligible energy losses, and thermal fractions that are more typical of star-forming galaxies than those required for the continuous model. Our results confirm the usefulness of combining spatially resolved radio imaging at both MHz and GHz frequencies to characterize in detail the radio emission properties of LIRGs from the central 100 pc out to the kiloparsec galaxy-wide scales.

We find that increased levels of shareholder engagement during the CSA season and certain shareholder motivations for initially joining a CSA are associated with increased satisfaction and likelihood of joining a CSA in the future.

description: We present Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) telescope observations of the radio-loud gravitational lens systems MG 0751+2716 and CLASS B1600+434. These observations produce images at 300 milliarcseconds (mas) resolution at 150 MHz. In the case of MG 0751+2716, lens modelling is used to derive a size estimate of around 2 kpc for the low-frequency source, which is consistent with a previous 27.4 GHz study in the radio continuum with Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). This consistency implies that the low-frequency radio source is cospatial with the core-jet structure that forms the radio structure at higher frequencies, and no significant lobe emission or further components associated with star formation are detected within the magnified region of the lens. CLASS B1600+434 is a two-image lens where one of the images passes through the edge-on spiral lensing galaxy, and the low radio frequency allows us to derive limits on propagation effects, namely scattering, in the lensing galaxy. The observed flux density ratio of the two lensed images is 1.19 +/- 0.04 at an observed frequency of 150 MHz. The widths of the two images give an upper limit of 0.035 kpc m^-20/3 on the integrated scattering column through the galaxy at a distance approximately 1 kpc above its plane, under the assumption that image A is not affected by scattering. This is relatively small compared to limits derived through very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) studies of differential scattering in lens systems. These observations demonstrate that LOFAR is an excellent instrument for studying gravitational lenses. We also report on the inability to calibrate three further lens observations: two from early observations that have less well determined station calibration, and a third observation impacted by phase transfer problems.

Geology and geochronometry of the coast plutonic complex adjacent to Douglas, Sue and Loretta channels, British Columbia
Creators: name: Runkle, Dita Elisabeth

description: Five major units were mapped in shoreline exposures of the Coast Plutonic Complex adjacent to Douglas, Sue and Loretta Channels: 1) paragneiss and migmatite of the Central Gneiss Complex, 2) quartz-biotite schist, amphibolite, quartzite,and marble of the Metasedimentary Rocks, 3) quartz diorite and quartz monzonite of the Kitkiata pluton, 4) granodiorite of the Quottoon pluton and 5) Agmatite, composed of early xenoliths of banded metamorphic rock, middle stage intrusions of granitic rock, and late pegmatite, aplite and lamprophyre dikes. Pressure estimates of 7 ± 1 kb for this part of the Coast Mountains are arrived at from the stable assemblages in a kyanite-staurolite schist, and by comparison with pressures published for areas along strike to the north. Amphibolites provide a low temperature estimate o f 550°C. Calcsilicate assemblages place the high temperature limit of metamorphism between 560 and 660°C at 5 kb. Elevated pressures would increase temperature somewhat. The area is structurally characterized by a well developed, steeply dipping foliation that strikes northwest, widespread isoclinal folds with axial plane foliation parallel to regional foliation, and a moderate to steeply plunging fold axis lineation. Interference structures show that the abundant isoclinal folds deform earlier approximately northeast-trending folds. Later tight to isoclinal folds deform the regional foliation. Metamorphic recrystallization outlasted deformation. The Kitkiata pluton has an initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio of 0.7042 to 0.7043, depending on its age. One radiogenic Sr-rich sample gives a model date of 165 ± 11 Ma, but the possibility of anomalous initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio makes this result highly uncertain. The Quottoon pluton gives a whole-rock isochron of 51 ± 2 Ma with 0.7045 ± 1 initial ratio. The low initial ratios indicate a preponderance of mantle-derived magma of Mesozoic or early Cenozoic age in the plutons studied. Sr isotopic composition of the Central Gneiss Complex is compatible with late Paleozoic-early Mesozoic ages for precursor detrital and volcanic strata and local presence of marine carbonate with moderately enriched ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr. The generally low radiogenic Sr content of these core gneisses rules out an origin by remobilization of greatly older rocks. Plutons of the Coast Plutonic Complex may have been generated by partial melting of the Central Gneiss Complex, and emplaced not far from their source of origin during regional metamorphism, as the surrounding rocks cooled from maximum temperature and pressure of metamorphism.

description: This paper examines two volumes dedicated to the philosophy of football. The analysis of Bernhard Welte’s volume, which collects two of his essays, focuses on two aspects of his philosophy of football. On the one hand, Welte conceives football as a metaphor for life as a regulated combat. On the other, the German philosopher sees in football a link to myth. The analysis of Del Bò and Santoni de Sio’s work, on the other hand, brings out the many philosophical questions that the game of football raises (the role of luck, fair play, refereeing, etc.). From the point of view of promoting dialogue between disciplines, the philosophy of football can ultimately offer very fertile research ideas for the social sciences as well.

description: Being professionally involved in sport could shape on individual’s habits, character, disposition, other than on projects, opportunities and visions. Starting from this, our research focused on how individuals face this pressure, which mostly engage them during the early adolescence. We selected four emblematic cases that could gave us testimony of being involved professionally in football. The research was conducted with a qualitative approach. The empirical material was constructed through direct observation and interviews. As results, we obtained: extensive confirmations of the difficulties experienced by the professionals; the relevance of emotional and socialization aspects and needs; forms of expectations for the future, across efforts of professional conversion, and related obstacles.

description: In our article, we analyse the ways audiences engage with Overwatch esports and construct their fan relationships. We situate our research into several intersecting theoretical frames. To understand how Overwatch esports audiences engage with the esports through different media and media related practices we apply the framework of transmedia studies in our examination. To better understand how meanings related to esports are constructed through these practices we also draw from research on fandom and fan engagement. We reflect these findings on earlier research on sports fandom and esports viewership, enabling us to identify how Overwatch esports communities relate to traditional sports communities. Our study reveals how esports is intertwined with the everyday lived reality of the esports audiences, and how meanings are constructed through (mediated) audience practices. Our article contributes to the study of esports transmedia and to the understanding of the similarities and differences of esports and sports audiences.

Note on the bundle geometry of field space, variational connections, the dressing field method, & presymplectic structures of gauge theories over bounded regions

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this note, we consider how the bundle geometry of field space interplays with the covariant phase space methods so as to allow to write results of some generality on the presymplectic structure of invariant gauge theories coupled to matter. We obtain in particular the generic form of Noether charges associated with field-independent and field-dependent gauge parameters, as well as their Poisson bracket. We also provide the general field-dependent gauge transformations of the presymplectic potential and 2-form, which clearly highlight the problem posed by boundaries in generic situations. We then conduct a comparative analysis of two strategies recently considered to evade the boundary problem and associate a modified symplectic structure to a gauge theory over a bounded regions: namely the use of edge modes on the one hand, and of variational connections on the other. To do so, we first try to give the clearest geometric account of both, showing in particular that edge modes are a special case of differential geometric tool of gauge symmetry reduction known as the "dressing field method". Applications to Yang-Mills theory and General Relativity reproduce or generalise several results of the recent literature.

description: This study analyzes the factors influencing consumers’ self-reported expected food waste when preparing a meal at home versus buying the meal already prepared. Results show that far-off expiration dates are expected to generate less food waste—particularly for fresh produce used in larger quantities and chicken. The Ready to Heat meal generated the lowest expected food waste. Convenient meal alternatives have the potential to reduce organic food waste, aside from any potential packaging waste, by facilitating the handling of products in transit, improving logistics, and reducing organic food waste.
Perturbative Super-Yang-Mills from the Topological AdS_5xS^5 Sigma Model

description: A topological sigma model based on the pure spinor formalism was recently proposed for the small radius limit of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring. Physical states in this model can be constructed by connecting holes on the worldsheet with Wilson lines of the worldsheet gauge field. The contribution of these states to the topological amplitude is claimed to reproduce the usual Feynman diagram expansion of gauge-invariant super-Yang-Mills correlation functions.

description: The Covid-19 pandemic suspended or canceled sporting events, disrupted competitive seasons, changed tournament calendars, and reduced revenues to zero. While traditional sports have come to a halt, the data highlights how, conversely, the number of following esports events on streaming platforms such as Twitch has increased. Consequently, it is understandable that - never more than now - traditional sport uses digital, discovering new ways of entertainment. The research tries to understand what can be, once esports are introduced into the business strategies of sports companies, their opportunities for fan engagement, brand awareness and social reaction growth. The paper presents the results of a qualitative-qualitative research characterized by two phases: the first, involves interviews with privileged witnesses, intends to identify the brand policies and marketing strategies of sports clubs; the second is a quantitative analysis aimed at estimating the engagement, awareness and reaction rates generated by the esports created by the Federation and the football club. The goal is to investigate the impact of esports on brand identity and their impact on possible future opportunities for the development of sports entertainment.

description: Il numero di Eracle dedicato agli eSports può sembrare una provocazione, e per certi versi lo è. Inserire un numero sugli eSports per una rivista che si occupa principalmente di studi sullo sport e le scienze sociali non è per nulla scontato. Proprio in un momento storico in cui si dibatte sia sul piano istituzionale che su quello teorico sull'appartenenza o meno degli eSports all’interno del novero degli sport tradizionale chiaramente la nostra è una scelta di campo che si basa su di una doppia matrice: 1) da un lato capire i rapporti che gli eSports intrattengono con la società contemporanea; 2) i modelli e i formati legati agli eSports e la messa a paragone di questi con gli sport tradizionali. Questa scelta non va vista però esclusivamente come una scelta di natura teorica atta a giustificare gli eSports all’interno degli sport studies o in quelli legati a sport e scienze sociali, lo scopo principale è quello di porre un problema rispetto alla messa a punto del rapporto tra mediatizzazione del mondo, mediatizzazione dello sport e videogiochi competitivi.

description: The conducting interface of LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ heterostructures has been studied by hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. From the Ti~2$p$ signal and its angle-dependence we derive that the thickness of the electron gas is much smaller than the probing depth of 4 nm and that the carrier densities vary with increasing number of LaAlO$_3$ overlayers. Our results point to an electronic reconstruction in the LaAlO$_3$ overlayer as the driving mechanism for the conducting interface and corroborate the recent interpretation of the superconducting ground state as being of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless type.
