description: Four-wave-mixing-based quantum cascade laser frequency combs (QCL-FC) are a powerful photonic tool, driving a recent revolution in major molecular fingerprint regions, i.e. mid- and far-infrared domains. Their compact and frequency-agile design, together with their high optical power and spectral purity, promise to deliver an all-in-one source for the most challenging spectroscopic applications. Here, we demonstrate a metrological-grade hybrid dual comb spectrometer, combining the advantages of a THz QCL-FC with the accuracy and absolute frequency referencing provided by a free-standing, optically-rectified THz frequency comb. A proof-of-principle application to methanol molecular transitions is presented. The multi-heterodyne molecular spectra retrieved provide state-of-the-art results in line-center determination, achieving the same precision as currently available molecular databases. The devised setup provides a solid platform for a new generation of THz spectrometers, paving the way to more refined and sophisticated systems exploiting full phase control of QCL-FCs, or Doppler-free spectroscopic schemes.
The Effect of Parthenium Hysterophorus Weed on Basin Hydrology
Creators: name: Adla, Soham
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2014

description: Parthenium hysterophorus weed is an invasive noxious weed with a high growth rate and spread which can be attributed to its adaptability to a variety of soil types and climatic conditions. Its hazardous impacts on human health, livestock and agricultural crops have been documented, and so have the mechanical, cultural, chemical and biological techniques of its control. However, few studies have investigated possible impacts of Parthenium on the hydrology of a river basin, either qualitatively or quantitatively. This study aimed to quantify the effect of a Parthenium invasion on water balance components at a river basin scale. Laboratory experiments and Penman-Monteith Evapotranspiration modeling indicate that Parthenium has lower evapotranspiration losses as compared to reference grasses and agricultural crops. SWAT modeling of a Parthenium invasion of the Punpun river basin re-establishes the tendency of Parthenium to transpire less, except during soil stressed conditions where Parthenium infested soil has a reduced moisture loss, which leads to a short period of higher evapotranspiration compared to agricultural land cover just before the onset of monsoons. Further, the modeling results suggest that Parthenium invasion does not have a significant effect on surface discharge and groundwater recharge at a basin scale. The thesis highlights the lack of data on the physiology of Parthenium which is needed to understand its impact on the hydrology of a basin. Lysimeter experiments under control environment are recommended to overcome some of the existing gaps in our present understanding of Parthenium.

description: Networks provide a mathematically rich framework to represent social contacts sufficient for the transmission of disease. Social networks are often highly clustered and fail to be locally tree-like. In this paper, we study the effects of clustering on the spread of sequential strains of a pathogen using the generating function formulation under a complete cross-immunity coupling, deriving conditions for the threshold of coexistence of the second strain. We show that clustering reduces the coexistence threshold of the second strain and its outbreak size in Poisson networks, whilst exhibiting the opposite effects on uniform-degree models. We conclude that clustering within a population must increase the ability of the second wave of an epidemic to spread over a network. We apply our model to the study of multilayer clustered networks and observe the fracturing of the residual graph at two distinct transmissibilities.

Zip-zip Trees: Making Zip Trees More Balanced, Biased, Compact, or Persistent

description: We define simple variants of zip trees, called zip-zip trees, which provide several advantages over zip trees, including overcoming a bias that favors smaller keys over larger ones. We analyze zip-zip trees theoretically and empirically, showing, e.g., that the expected depth of a node in an $n$-node zip-zip tree is at most $1.3863\log n-1+o(1)$, which matches the expected depth of treaps and binary search trees built by uniformly random insertions. Unlike these other data structures, however, zip-zip trees achieve their bounds using only $O(\log\log n)$ bits of metadata per node, w.h.p., as compared to the $Θ(\log n)$ bits per node required by treaps. In fact, we even describe a ``just-in-time'' zip-zip tree variant, which needs just an expected $O(1)$ number of bits of metadata per node. Moreover, we can define zip-zip trees to be strongly history independent, whereas treaps are generally only weakly history independent. We also introduce \emph{biased zip-zip trees}, which have an explicit bias based on key weights, so the expected depth of a key, $k$, with weight, $w_k$, is $O(\log (W/w_k))$, where $W$ is the weight of all keys in the weighted zip-zip tree. Finally, we show that one can easily make zip-zip trees partially persistent with only $O(n)$ space overhead w.h.p.

description: In an earlier paper (https://doi.org/10.1137/21M1393315), the Switch Point Algorithm was developed for solving optimal control problems whose solutions are either singular or bang-bang or both singular and bang-bang, and which possess a finite number of jump discontinuities in an optimal control at the points in time where the solution structure changes. The class of control problems that were considered had a given initial condition, but no terminal constraint. The theory is now extended to include problems with both initial and terminal constraints, a structure that often arises in boundary-value problems. Substantial changes to the theory are needed to handle this more general setting. Nonetheless, the derivative of the cost with respect to a switch point is again the jump in the Hamiltonian at the switch point.

description: Building extraction aims to segment building pixels from remote sensing images and plays an essential role in many applications, such as city planning and urban dynamic monitoring. Over the past few years, deep learning methods with encoder-decoder architectures have achieved remarkable performance due to their powerful feature representation capability. Nevertheless, due to the varying scales and styles of buildings, conventional deep learning models always suffer from uncertain predictions and cannot accurately distinguish the complete footprints of the building from the complex distribution of ground objects, leading to a large degree of omission and commission. In this paper, we realize the importance of uncertain prediction and propose a novel and straightforward Uncertainty-Aware Network (UANet) to alleviate this problem. To verify the performance of our proposed UANet, we conduct extensive experiments on three public building datasets, including the WHU building dataset, the Massachusetts building dataset, and the Inria aerial image dataset. Results demonstrate that the proposed UANet outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms by a large margin.

description: We study a class of quantum integrable systems derived from dimer graphs and also described by local toric Calabi-Yau geometries with higher genus mirror curves, generalizing some previous works on genus one mirror curves. We compute the spectra of the quantum systems both by standard perturbation method and by Bohr-Sommerfeld method with quantum periods as the phase volumes. In this way, we obtain some exact analytic results for the classical and quantum periods of the Calabi-Yau geometries. We also determine the differential operators of the quantum periods and compute the topological string free energy in Nekrasov-Shatashvili (NS) limit. The results agree with calculations from other methods such as the topological vertex.

description: The two-dimensional topological insulator phase has been observed previously in single HgTe-based quantum wells with inverted subband ordering. In double quantum wells (DQWs), coupling between the layers introduces additional degrees of freedom leading to a rich phase picture. By studying local and nonlocal resistance in HgTe-based DQWs, we observe both the gapless semimetal phase and the topological insulator phase, depending on parameters of the samples and according to theoretical predictions. Our work establishes the DQWs as a promising platform for realization of multilayer topological insulators.

We do not detect gas in any source and place upper limits on the mass of molecular gas which are generally in the range 1E9 to a few times 1E10 solar masses. These limits are consistent with the following interpretations: (1) GPS sources do not require very dense gas in their hosts, and (2) The GPS sources are unlikely to be confined by dense gas and will evolve to become larger radio sources.

description: We present a discovery of a giant stellar halo in NGC 6822, a dwarf irregular galaxy in the Local Group. This halo is mostly made of old red giants, showing striking features: 1) it is several times larger than the main body of the galaxy seen in the optical images, and 2) it is elongated in the direction almost perpendicular to the HI disk of NGC 6822. The structure of this stellar halo looks similar to the shape of dwarf elliptical galaxies, indicating that the halos of dwarf irregular galaxies share the same origin with those of the dwarf elliptical galaxies.

description: The deregulation of the sector occurred in the early 1990 and the globalization of markets have presented a series of injunctions to the productive milk chain, particularly in the primary production stage, imposing to the organizations the need of a wide reformulation of their structures and strategies in order to keep such organisms themselves either active and competitive. This study aims to present the experiences of associative organizations of dairy farmers of six rural communities of the State of Minas Gerais, which have been adopting the system of purchasing and use of communitarian milk cooling tanks. The methodology consisted in the utilization of qualitative and quantitative research methods through an exploratory study, a descriptive approach and a comparative multicase study. The statistical analyses of frequency and distinguishers were used. It was found that that 82% of the farmers interviewed stated that the need of installation of the communitarian tank was the chief reason for them to associate, which is highly justifiable, considering the transformations which have been occurring in that productive chain. Out of the motivational variables indicating the associative behavior which have most discriminated the communities it stand out the demand for the dairy plant, the power of bargain in milk price and in the purchase of inputs, the reduction of the transportation cost and the commitment to the MAPA guidelines. The results showed that the associative experiences of the dairy farmers in the purchasing of milk cooling tanks vary according to the participation of the local industry – whether a dairy plant whether an agricultural cooperative, as well as public bureaus.

description: L’objet de cet article est de préparer une lecture nouvelle des vers 1-11 du fragment 8 de Parménide, à partir d’arguments non plus exclusivement fondés sur le paradigme linguistique logico-analytique qui domine explicitement ou non les recherches contemporaines, mais tenant compte aussi des résultats issus de la pragmatique de l’énonciation. Dans un premier temps, l’examen du vocabulaire des signes chez Hésiode, Héraclite, Hérodote et Homère permet de mettre en évidence que l’intention de Parménide était d’apporter une solution à ce qu’il convient de considérer comme une crise sématologique, qui trouve son expression la plus forte dans l’Odyssée. Dans un second temps, il est démontré que pour échapper à cette crise Parménide confère au mot être une forme auto-référentielle et nécessairement délocutive de sorte qu’il ne peut éviter une contradiction de type pragmatique.

description: We continue the study of dipole cosmology framework put forward in \cite{Krishnan:2022qbv}, a beyond FLRW setting that has a preferred direction in the metric which may be associated with a cosmological tilt, a cosmic dipole. In this setup the shear and the tilt can be positive or negative given the dipole direction. We thoroughly analyze evolution of the universe in this setting, particularly focusing on the behaviour near the Big Bang (BB). We first analyze a single fluid model with a generic constant equation of state $w$. While details of the behavior near the BB depends on $w$ and the other initial conditions, we find that when the shear is negative we have a shear dominated BB singularity, whereas for a positive shear we have a much milder singularity, the whimper singularity \cite{Ellis:1974ug}, at which the tilt blows up while curvature invariants remain finite. We then consider dipole $Λ$CDM model which besides the shear has two tilt parameters, one for radiation and one for the pressureless matter. For positive (negative) shear we again find whimper (curvature) singularity near the BB. Moreover, when the tilt parameters have opposite signs, the shear can change sign from negative to positive in the course of evolution of the Universe. We show that the relative tilt of the radiation and the matter generically remains sizable at late times.

In 2022, a JIT with seven States as members and the ICC-OTP as a participant was set up on alleged core international crimes committed in Ukraine. Europol also became a participant in the JIT in October 2023. The OTP’s participation in the JIT in Ukraine offers a great opportunity to implement the policy of proactive complementarity of the ICC. Meanwhile, it brings both challenges and opportunities to the OTP in gaining experiences and practices of managing two-track cooperation and assistance with seven States pursuant to the Rome Statute. Lastly, the OTP must be cautious about potential challenges to its independence throughout all its activities, including its participation in the JIT in Ukraine.

description: The liquid metal-liquid silicate partitioning of molybdenum and tungsten during core formation must be well-constrained in order to understand the evolution of Earth and other planetary bodies, in particular because the Hf-W isotopic system is used to date early planetary evolution. We combine 48 new high pressure and temperature experimental results with a comprehensive database of previous experiments to re-examine the systematics of Mo and W partitioning. W partitioning is particularly sensitive to silicate and metallic melt compositions and becomes more siderophile with increasing temperature. We show that W has a 6+ oxidation state in silicate melts over the full experimental fO2 range of $Δ$IW -1.5 to -3.5. Mo has a 4+ oxidation state and its partitioning is less sensitive to silicate melt composition, but also depends on metallic melt composition. DMo stays approximately constant with increasing depth in Earth. Both W and Mo become more siderophile with increasing C content of the metal, so we fit epsilon interaction parameters. W and Mo along with C are incorporated into a combined N-body accretion and core-mantle differentiation model. We show that W and Mo require the early accreting Earth to be sulfur-depleted and carbon-enriched so that W and Mo are efficiently partitioned into Earth's core and do not accumulate in the mantle. If this is the case, the produced Earth-like planets possess mantle compositions matching the BSE for all simulated elements. However, there are two distinct groups of estimates of the bulk mantle's C abundance in the literature: low (100 ppm), and high (800 ppm), and all models are consistent with the higher estimated carbon abundance. The low BSE C abundance would be achievable when the effects of the segregation of dispersed metal droplets produced in deep magma oceans by the disproportionation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ plus metallic Fe is considered.

description: This work aims at investigating the optical transmission system needed for such lightweight sail, taking into account the physical constraints of such unprecedented link and focusing on the optimal scheme for the optical signal emission. In particular, the optical signal is distributed to several emitters on the sail. The light diffraction resulting from the pattern of the emitters acting coherently determines the characteristics of the whole beam transmitted by the sail and of the received signal on the Earth. The performance of the digital communication system using pulse position modulation (PPM) can be assessed and channel coding schemes are proposed. We are using the paradigm for which the entire sail communication system is described as a Tree-of-light: the detectors, CPU, memory and laser transmitter are the central unit, representing the trunk of the tree. The branches of the tree are the waveguides, directed to the sail surface. By means of multimode splitters, the signal is further distributed via the petioles to the emitters, the leaves, realized by grating couplers (GCs), on which this work is more focused.

There are numerous variables influencing the performance of rural business. Several variables can not be controlled by the farmers, but, there are some variables which can be controlled, as farm management. Problems related to farm business sustainability revel inefficiencies in farm management in general, and more specifically in family based agriculture. Therefore the proposal of a rural extension course in management, acts over this deficiency, providing tools for family-based agriculture. This paper presents a methodological framework of a managerial capacitation extension course, which aggregates different tools for family-based agriculture support. It is expected that the knowledge supplied will contribute to the sustainability of the economical business and improvement of family welfare.

description: As a result of the invasion of Ukraine, the Commission has been increasing its weight throughout the EU sanctions process. This transformation is visible in the formation, implementation and communication of sanctions. Formulation has become less member state-driven, implementation has undergone some steps towards centralisation, and communication has becoming more aggressive. An enhanced role for the Commission may be advantageous for sanctions governance; however, the exceptionally fast pace at which it is unfolding is susceptible of undermining regular scrutiny by economic operators, public opinion, and, most acutely, parliamentary bodies.

description: This work aims to revise and discuss organizational, social, economical, technical and environmental factors involved in the artisan fishing activity which influence the formation and the development of the cooperatives of artisan fishermen; these ones, still form a class of workers excluded of the current capitalist economical system and they have in the cooperativism an important tool for your social inclusion, it warrants them the income for maintenance of families. Therefore, a bibliographic revision was carried out on the theme, as well as on the themes related to the cooperativism and to the fishing activity itself through a research on the bibliographical collections of the main entities, organs and services that deal with the matter, besides the rising of data through consultations and informal routine interviews, made during technical visits to the some communities. The analysis of the information sought allowed concluding that the artisan fishermen need solutions for technical and commercial problems that keep them in serious situation of economical dependence, which tend to disappear through the formation of cooperatives. However, it is highly necessary authorities’ perception for understanding that cooperative efficiency is related not only to objectives of economical nature, when considered the marginal situation of the fisherman, in several areas, related to the market where they act. According to the proportion of good results they get, the cooperatives process social changes which transcend their your own associative body reaching a whole community, in the search of the social correction through economical factors, set up from values such as the fair distribution of income which deserves the adoption of urgent pro-active posture and actions.

description: Data dimensionality informs us about data complexity and sets limit on the structure of successful signal processing pipelines. In this work we revisit and improve the manifold-adaptive Farahmand-Szepesvári-Audibert (FSA) dimension estimator, making it one of the best nearest neighbor-based dimension estimators available. We compute the probability density function of local FSA estimates, if the local manifold density is uniform. Based on the probability density function, we propose to use the median of local estimates as a basic global measure of intrinsic dimensionality, and we demonstrate the advantages of this asymptotically unbiased estimator over the previously proposed statistics: the mode and the mean. Additionally, from the probability density function, we derive the maximum likelihood formula for global intrinsic dimensionality, if i.i.d. holds. We tackle edge and finite-sample effects with an exponential correction formula, calibrated on hypercube datasets. We compare the performance of the corrected-median-FSA estimator with kNN estimators: maximum likelihood (ML, Levina-Bickel) and two implementations of DANCo (R and matlab). We show that corrected-median-FSA estimator beats the ML estimator and it is on equal footing with DANCo for standard synthetic benchmarks according to mean percentage error and error rate metrics. With the median-FSA algorithm, we reveal diverse changes in the neural dynamics while resting state and during epileptic seizures. We identify brain areas with lower-dimensional dynamics that are possible causal sources and candidates for being seizure onset zones.

description: We evaluate the vacuum entanglement entropy across a cut of future null infinity for free Maxwell theory in four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. The Weyl invariance of 4D Maxwell theory allows us to embed the Minkowski spacetime inside the Einstein static universe. The Minkowski vacuum can then be described as a thermofield double state on the (future) Milne wedges of the original and inverted Minkowski patches. We show that the soft mode contribution to entanglement entropy is due to correlations between asymptotic charges of these Milne wedges or, equivalently, nontrivial conformally soft (or edge) mode configurations at the entangling surface.

A learning teacher : reflecting on pedagogic moments (At)tending to voices of self/other in transformative spaces
Creators: name: McKay, Maria Soffia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: An inquiry invites many questions. How does one pause to write about learning and living begun in the past, yet is so present and continuous? What genre, what words, what position and what tone art-fully communicate without artifice? Questions lead to possibilities; in/decisions open to places unknown. The title announces the subject and focus. As a learning teacher, I pause in my work and studies to consider pedagogical moments. A thesis typically promises findings of original research from a specific view. My reflections are original, but what do they find? I explore formative experiences, from sundry points of view/time, but claim no pronounce-able conclusion. The writing is a text-ured partial weaving of poetic, narrative, and autobiographical styles through hermeneutic inquiry that opens me to postmodern possibilities. And what findings emerge? In un/raveling pedagogic moments, I am entangled in spaces which (continue to) arrest my linear intentions, give me pause and stimulate change. In writing and re-writing, recent stories replace older ones while conflicting nuances and tentative understandings intrude. I find myself caught in past-present moments which provoke more questions, evoke more in/decisions and invoke more wonder. The sub-title further articulates intent. Attending involves paying attention, listening and taking care. Rooted in French, tendere means to stretch: teaching certainly tugs and enlarges. Alerted to tend, I recognize the call to serve, to cultivate, to foster. As I at-tend to self and other, urging students to have voice, I am exposed to richly relational experiences, which are disruptive and risky. The structure interlaces five questions, each prompting a story followed by threaded thoughts. Through to-and-fro movements, I interact with diverse, mind-ful thoughts gleaned from others engaged in pedagogical and philosophical work. Interludes offer a/rhythmic pulses. As the question-story-thought-threads spin on, I find myself seeking less control of knowledge and craft, rather re-reading my teaching life in order to dwell in awkward, tremoring pedagogic spaces, cracking with questions and vibrant with complicated relationships. The writing pauses to an end, which is not a stop, for as a learning teacher and teaching learner, I will continue to invite/join conversations found in transformative spaces, anticipating learning anew.

description: The purpose of this paper is to empirically show the importance of the social and joint responsibility certification to enhance the economic opportunities of family agriculture. Parallelly, it was tried to identify the most important obstacles in the area, from the different points of view, (political, social security and sanitary), in the region under study (Missões Gaúchas). This work provides a useful tool to the formulation of public policies in this area, approaching to the opinion of interviewed farmers in relation to their interest of taking part of that process and their expectations regarding to the future.

description: High quality polarized electron beams at Jefferson Lab make possible precision measurements of hadronic properties in the regime of strongly interacting QCD. We will describe a few programs at Jefferson Lab that are making measurements that link the basic static properties of hadrons to their quark sub-structure. For example, parity-violating electron proton elastic scattering probes the spatial distribution of strange quarks in the nucleon. The nucleon-Delta transition form factors give us information about the deformation of nucleons and Deltas. Finally, new high statistics measurements of photons scattering off proton and deuteron targets are used to set upper limits on the production of exotic baryons with strangeness S=+1. These examples will be used to illustrate the capabilities and focus of the experimental program at JLab.

title: Norme et transgression dans les proverbes
Creators: name: Palma, Silvia
Publisher: name: Savoirs en prisme

description: Il est communément admis que les proverbes indiquent une règle générale, une norme en vigueur dans une communauté linguistique. Que cette communauté soit limitée ou étendue, réelle ou virtuelle, la règle évoquée présente invariablement un caractère de vérité générale et le locuteur qui énonce un proverbe dans d’une situation particulière indique que le cas considéré vérifie la règle générale sous-jacente (Tel père, tel fils ; Il n’y a pas de fumée sans feu ; Les bons comptes font les bons amis…). Toutefois, il existe un groupe de proverbes − moins nombreux et moins étudiés que ceux que nous venons d’évoquer − servant justement à indiquer la transgression par rapport à la norme invoquée (Il ne faut pas mettre la charrue avant les bœufs ; Ce n’est pas à un vieux singe que l’on apprend à faire des grimaces…). Dans ces cas, l’ordre habituel des actions n’est pas respecté ou le destinataire d’une action ne convient pas. En brisant la règle habituelle, ces proverbes mettent en place une autre règle mais en même temps, du fait de s’opposer à la première, valident indirectement celle-ci. Notre étude est consacrée à ces deux types de mécanismes de validation de la norme dans les proverbes.
