Evolution of complex organelles in dinoflagellates
Creators: name: Gavelis, Gregory S.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Dinoflagellates are an abundant and diverse group of aquatic eukaryotes, with members that have photosynthetic, heterotrophic, or mixotrophic life strategies, as well as a number of unique cytological features. My thesis focuses on two groups of closely related dinoflagellates: polykrikoids and warnowiids. Both include heterotrophic as well as plastid-bearing members, though the number of times photosynthesis has been lost (or gained) in each group is unclear, and the presence and provenance of plastids in some species (e.g., Nematodinium sp. and Polykrikos lebouriae) have been debated. Polykrikoids and warnowiids also contain some of the most complex subcellular structures described--such as nematocysts and, in warnowiids, eye-like ocelloids. Yet these groups are rare in nature and uncultivated, and as such, the origins of their complex organelles are unclear. For my thesis, I modified existing techniques for use on single-cell environmental isolates, and applied these techniques to wild polykrikoid and warnowiid cells. By exploiting the common splice leader sequence found on dinoflagellate transcripts, I was able to amplify a single-cell transcriptome from Polykrikos lebouriae—a dinoflagellate with aberrant plastids. Coupled with single-cell genomics using multiple displacement amplification (MDA), I demonstrated that Polykrikos lebouriae has retained peridinin-type plastids, while photosynthesis has been lost in multiple other polykrikoid species independently. Using MDA and single-cell transmission electron microscopy, I also determined that the eye-like ocelloid of Nematodinium sp. is made in part from a peridinin plastid, and also from mitochondria. Specifically, single-cell focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) allowed me to demonstrate that a retina-like portion of the ocelloid is a small part of a much larger peridinin-plastid that ramifies throughout the Nematodinium cell. Lastly, I investigated the evolution of nematocysts in Polykrikos spp. and Nematodinium sp. using a combination of transcriptomics, TEM, SEM, and FIB-SEM, and inferred that “nematocysts” in these groups evolved independently from those in cnidarians. Thus, nematocyst-like extrusive organelles appear to have evolved multiple times in eukaryotes. The data presented in this thesis show how extreme subcellular complexity has evolved in dinoflagellates through both endosymbiotic and autogenous origins.

description: The precise measurement of the cross section e+e- --> pi+ pi-(gamma) from threshold to an energy of 3 GeV, using events with Initial State Radiation (ISR) collected with the BABAR detector, is presented. The ISR luminosity is determined from a study of the leptonic process e+e- --> mu+ mu- gamma(gamma), and the method is tested by the comparison with the next-to-leading order (NLO) QED prediction. The leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly calculated using the BABAR pi pi cross section measured from threshold to 1.8 GeV is (514.1 +- 2.2(stat) +- 3.1(syst)) * 10^{-10}. Other results on ISR multihadronic cross sections from BABAR are presented.

description: Case 43/75 Defrenne v SABENA (ECLI:EU:C:1976:56) was handed down by the Court of Justice in 1976. It is the second case of the Defrenne trilogy, and today is still cited as the landmark ruling establishing a woman's right to equal treatment in the workplace. However, the recent release of the full dossier de procédure shows that the case was about more than that and was influenced by several factors. In this regard, the dossier offers valuable insights into the case, including valuable information about the actors involved, the social and political con-text, and the role of evidence. The opening of the archives also shows that the decision on horizontal direct effect of the provision was not straightforward and that other options were being discussed, notably the vertical direct effect of art. 119 EEC. Finally, the dossier offers more clarity regarding the issue of non-retroactivity, which was rapidly concluded in the final decision but takes up a large part of the dossier. Using the archives permits us to see that the landmark decision did not come out of the blue but emerged from a series of constituent elements.
Re-Run and Re-Read

description:

Hailed by critics as breaking paths for the direction of British fiction, Tom McCarthy’s novel Remainder (2005) has been described as a way of re-thinking literature in terms of intermedial spaces, be they installations, performance artworks or a ‘remix’ of writing and film. The newness of Remainder seems to hinge on its imitation of a contemporary mediascape saturated with technical images and simulacra, in which reality is totally metamorphosed into a filmic phantasmagoria that novel writing is striving to mimic. Following McCarthy’s eschewing of the rhetoric of the ‘new’, this essay discusses the practice of re-enactment described in Remainder as a way digging up images from the past to read the myth of postmodern hyperreality against its grain. McCarthy’s ‘archeology of the present’ takes the concern with mediation and visual culture back to the unfinished business of modernism and its encounter with cinematic technology, reproposing the materialist aesthetics of embodiment that emerged from the conversation among literature, film and medicine in writers such as Joyce or T.S. Eliot, down to Samuel Beckett.

The Fear of Laughter in Restoration Prose Fiction
Creators: name: Figueroa, Jorge
Publisher: name: Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia
Year: 2019

description:

This article draws on recent studies on the fear of derisive laughter (or ‘gelotophobia’) in order to relate them to early modern comments on laughter and to the representation of that anxiety in some texts of Restoration prose fiction, and with a particular emphasis on Alexander Oldys’s The Fair Extravagant(1682). Gelotophobia is a variant of shame anxiety and a social phobia defined as the pathological fear of being an object of laughter. Although the fear shown in the texts analysed is not pathological, it certainly reveals the strong pressure of the shame culture and gender politics prevailing in Restoration England.

description:

The present article considers Frances Greville’s poem A Prayer for Indifference as the centre of a debate around the nature of the emotions and their social and cultural roles in the eighteenth century. Greville questions the models of the philosophers of sensibility, in particular Francis Hutcheson’s, and, drawing on Shakespeare’s newly prominent status, puts forward literature as an alternative.

description: Este artigo tem como tema o significado político do amor e da amizade no Portugal dos séculos XVI e XVII. A sua parte inicial incide sobre a literatura teológica e moral produzida ao longo desse período, pois essa literatura proporciona uma reflexão sistemática e detalhada acerca do valor social e político dos laços sentimentais. De seguida, demonstramos que a benevolência cristã estruturou as relações entre as pessoas nos diversos sectores da sociedade do Antigo Regime, e na parte final deste trabalho explica-se de que modo o amor enquadrou a interacção entre o rei e os seus vassalos. No fundo, esta análise torna evidente que, nessa época, a cultura política assentava em fundamentos católicos.

description: A coding scheme based on irregular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is proposed to send secret messages from a source over the Gaussian wiretap channel to a destination in the presence of a wiretapper, with the restriction that the source can send only binary phase-shift keyed (BPSK) symbols. The secrecy performance of the proposed coding scheme is measured by the secret message rate through the wiretap channel as well as the equivocation rate about the message at the wiretapper. A code search procedure is suggested to obtain irregular LDPC codes that achieve good secrecy performance in such context.

X-ray spectral evolution in M33 X-8

description: The bright ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX), M33 X-8, has been observed several times by XMM-Newton, providing us with a rare opportunity to `flux bin' the spectral data and search for changes in the average X-ray spectrum with flux level. The aggregated X-ray spectra appear unlike standard sub-Eddington accretion state spectra which, alongside the lack of discernible variability at any energy, argues strongly against conventional two-component, sub-Eddington models. Although the lack of variability could be consistent with disc-dominated spectra, sub-Eddington disc models are not sufficiently broad to explain the observed spectra. Fits with a ~ Eddington accretion rate slim disc model are acceptable, but the fits show that the temperature decreases with flux, contrary to expectations, and this is accompanied by the appearance of a harder tail to the spectrum. Applying a suitable two-component model reveals that the disc becomes cooler and less advection dominated as the X-ray flux increases, and this is allied to the emergence of an optically-thick Comptonisation medium. We present a scenario in which this is explained by the onset of a radiatively-driven wind from the innermost regions of the accretion disc, as M33 X-8 exceeds the Eddington limit. Furthermore, we argue that the direct evolution of this spectrum with increasing luminosity (and hence radiation pressure) leads naturally to the two-component spectra seen in more luminous ULXs.

description: Air pollution is a global health concern not only to adults but majorly for children. Air pollution has serious implications on health of children. Air pollution through traffic is a major threat to children. Hospitalization of kids due asthma, increase in lung problems in kids, prevalence and severity of wheezing has increased because of the polluted air. Many research studies that are done on air pollution effects on human health has proved association of allergic diseases with polluted air. In low income and developing countries increase in urban population and increase in traffic has affected human health care in lot of ways. In this paper we will talk about causes of air pollution and effects in children majorly along with adults too.

Impurity spin texture at a Néel-Valence Bond Solid critical point in $d=2$ SU(3) quantum antiferromagnets

description: We study the impurity physics at a continuous quantum phase transition from an SU(3) symmetric Néel ordered state to a valence bond solid state that breaks lattice symmetries, using quantum Monte Carlo techniques. This continuous transition is expected to be an example of `deconfined criticality' in an SU(3) symmetric system. We find that the spin-texture induced by a missing-spin defect at the transition takes on a finite-size scaling form consistent with expectations from standard scaling arguments at a scale-invariant quantum critical point, albeit with significant subleading power-law finite size corrections that we analyze in detail. Together with recently-found logarithmic violations of scaling at similar continuous transitions in the SU(2) case, our results provide indirect evidence for the existence of operators that become marginal as $N$ is reduced to 2 in the field theoretical description of these deconfined critical points.

description: In its final decision of 26 May 1982, the Court of Justice established which of two competing interpretations of the public service exception in art. 48(4) of the EEC Treaty (currently art. 45 TFEU) would define the ambit of free movement of workers to this day. Out of nine Member States, four were actively involved in the proceedings, showing the controversy and importance surrounding the implementation of free movement in the public service of domestic legal orders in this early stage of European integration. Findings from an analysis of the dossier for Commission v Belgium were gathered in reports drafted as part of a fascinating project on the "Court of Justice in the Archives". This Article showcases the interconnectedness of actors, institutions and procedure that emerges from the dossier. The legal reasoning underpinning the case is re-evaluated on the basis of submissions and the evidence contained in the dossier. The illustrations selected for this Article demonstrate how the dossier can be deployed as a new instrument to further socio-legal and legal research on the jurisprudence and practice of the European Community.

description: The Foglia saga remains key to understanding the relationship between the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and domestic courts in art. 267 TFEU proceedings. By discussing the dossier de procédure of case 244/80 (Foglia v Novello II ECLI:EU:C:1981:302), this Article adds to the existing debates on the case. In doing so, it gives insights into the legal arguments of the different actors as found in the dossier, as well as into the way in which these were handled by the Court. Whereas their overall legal stance on the issue was clear from the outset, the most remarkable findings concern the arguments that were left unsaid in the final version of the judgment. These illustrate that, contrary to what the judgment seems to suggest, the case was as much about demonstrating the existence of a genuine dispute between the two parties in this specific case, as it was about the Court's appraisal powers. The material found is also in line with existing academic commentary which pointed to the influence of France in the judgment. Though these findings are not conclusive and do not purport to reveal the motives behind this enigmatic ruling, they nonetheless give fresh insight into this extensively discussed issue.
Numerical studies in gravitational collapse

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: In the first part of this thesis, we solve the coupled Einstein-Vlasov system in spherical symmetry using direct numerical integration of the Vlasov equation in phase space. Focusing on the case of massless particles we study critical phenomena in the model, finding strong evidence for generic type I behaviour at the black hole threshold that parallels what has previously been observed in the massive sector. For differing families of initial data we find distinct critical solutions, so there is no universality of the critical configuration itself. However we find indications of at least a weak universality in the lifetime scaling exponent, which is yet to be understood. Additionally, we clarify the role that angular momentum plays in the critical behaviour in the massless case. The second part focuses on type II critical collapse. Using the critical collapse of a massless scalar field in spherical symmetry as a test case, we study a generalization of the BSSN formulation due to Brown that is suited for use with curvilinear coordinates. We adopt standard dynamical gauge choices, including 1+log slicing and a shift that is either zero or evolved by a Gamma-driver condition. With both choices of shift we are able to evolve sufficiently close to the black hole threshold to 1) unambiguously identify the discrete self-similarity of the critical solution, 2) determine an echoing exponent consistent with previous calculations, and 3) measure a mass scaling exponent, also in accord with prior computations. Our results can be viewed as an encouraging first step towards the use of hyperbolic formulations in more generic type II scenarios, including the as yet unresolved problem of critical collapse of axisymmetric gravitational waves. In the last part, we present simulations of nonlinear evolutions of pure gravity waves. We describe a new G-BSSN code in axial symmetry that is capable of evolving a pure vacuum content in a strong gravity regime for both Teukolsky and Brill initial data. We provide strong evidence for the accuracy of the numerical solver. Our results suggest that the G-BSSN is promising for type II critical phenomena studies.

description: This Article presents a database of lawyers being built within the Court of Justice in the Archives project. Recent studies, relying on actor-centred approaches, have fostered a renewed interest in European lawyers. While vis-its of these lawyers in Luxembourg have fostered the development of transnational legal networks and participated to the acculturation of the Court's informal and formal rules, they remain largely under-studied. We therefore suggest to analyse the Court as a "place of confluence", where different professional groups meet during the course of the proceedings. The database precisely aims at mapping the networks of lawyers that take shape in Luxembourg. Providing statistical analysis of the structuration and evolutions of the Europe of lawyers (agents of the European institutions or Member States, law professors or private practitioners), we suggest that the database could contribute to a better understanding of transformations in the European legal field.

The Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) was required for the static placement of pages on the World Wide Web. The Java language was required for a quantum leap in the creation of interactive products for the Internet. Three key elements have come together in Java technology and made it fundamentally different from anything that exists today. Makes its applets for widespread use (applets) - small, reliable, dynamic, platform-independent, active network applications embedded in Web pages ... Java Applets can be customized and distributed to consumers as easily as any HTML document. Unleashes the power of object-oriented application development by combining simple and familiar syntax with a robust and easy-to-use development environment. This allows a wide range of programmers to quickly create new programs and new applets. It provides the programmer with a rich set of object classes to clearly abstract many of the system functions used in windowing, networking, and I / O. A key feature of these classes is that they provide platform-independent abstractions for a wide variety of system interfaces, read more at https://www.mindk.com/.

description: European law differs from other fields of law in that it has no well-established tradition for legal history. This places European law at a real disadvantage when it comes to critically reflecting upon its own tradition of great classics as well as understanding the relatively conflictual role European law plays in the EU today. This Article first offers a few reflections about why there is no established tradition for legal history in European law and what this means for legal scholars in the field. In a second step, the Article explores what kind of legal history could be developed in the field of European law. Ultimately, the Article concludes that legal history today generally has adopted mainstream historians' contextual and archival approach to explore the role of law in broader society. This Special Section consequently represents an important first step for legal scholars of European law to venture into the field of legal history using the recently opened historical archives of the Court of Justice of the European Union.

description: This Article engages with a core objective of the Court of Justice in the Archives Project: how best to demonstrate and evaluate the potential of the Historical Archives of the Court of Justice for the purposes of deepening and furthering legal research. It considers two forms of novelty in that light: first, finding out things that are "literally" new; and, second, being alerted to analytical possibilities that arise from looking deeply into a case dossier. To illustrate these instances of research novelty, the Article identifies themes - as well as questions - emerging from the individual reports and from the transversal analysis made possible through the Project, highlighting particular strengths or "added value" factors in that context. It also reflects on the limits of the Archives from the perspective that not all Court of Justice mysteries can, or should, be uncovered.

This uses the Moser's lemma; a refined version of the celebrated Darboux theorem. We discuss the relation between the coordinates change arising from Moser's lemma and the Seiberg--Witten map. As illustration, we consider the quantum Hall systems on CP^2. We derive the action describing the electromagnetic interaction of Hall droplets. In particular, we show that the velocities of the edge field, along the droplet boundary, are noncommutativity parameters-dependents.

description: The strong tidal triggering of mid-ocean ridge earthquakes has remained unexplained because the earthquakes occur preferentially during low tide, when normal faulting earthquakes should be inhibited. Using Axial Volcano on the Juan de Fuca ridge as an example, we show that the axial magma chamber inflates/deflates in response to tidal stresses, producing Coulomb stresses on the faults that are opposite in sign to those produced by the tides. When the magma chamber’s bulk modulus is sufficiently low, the phase of tidal triggering is inverted. We find that the stress dependence of seismicity rate conforms to triggering theory over the entire tidal stress range. There is no triggering stress threshold and stress shadowing is just a continuous function of stress decrease. We find the viscous friction parameter A to be an order of magnitude smaller than laboratory measurements. The high tidal sensitivity at Axial Volcano results from the shallow earthquake depths.

description: Generation of high-energy proton bunch from interaction of an intense short circularly polarized(CP) laser pulse with a gas-filled cone target(GCT) is investigated using two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation. The GCT target consists of a hollow cone filled with near-critical gas-plasma and a thin foil attached to the tip of the cone. It is observed that as the laser pulse propagates in the gas-plasma, the nonlinear focusing will result in an enhancement of the laser pulse intensity. It is shown that a large number of energetic electrons are generated from the gas-plasma and accelerated by the self-focused laser pulse. The energetic electrons then transports through the foil, forming a backside sheath field which is stronger than that produced by a simple planar target. A quasi-monoenergetic proton beam with maximum energy of 181 MeV is produced from this GCT target irradiated by a CP laser pulse at an intensity of $2.6\times10^{20}W/cm^2$, which is nearly three times higher compared to simple planar target(67MeV).

description: Summary: This study explores the courtroom interactions between judges, attorneys, and parents charged with child abuse or neglect. Drawing on ethnographic observations of court cases in a Family Court located in the northeastern United States, this study seeks to understand how judges encourage or inhibit parents’ participation and the strategies and tactics used to influence parental behaviors and obtain cooperation with court orders.

Findings: On one end of the spectrum are judges who engage little, or not at all with parents, preferring to speak only to the professional court actors. On the other end of the spectrum is a more participatory approach, with judges weaving parents into court room exchanges and engaging them in informational and decision-making dialogs. A similar divergence appears when soliciting cooperation from parents, with some judges relying on shaming rituals and others using a softer approach that incorporates praise and support.

Applications: Strategic interventions are identified that will increase parents’ cooperation and satisfaction with the Family Court system. These include vigorously engaging in both informational and decision-making dialogs with parents and using rituals of praise and support, rather than shaming.

description: The interpretation of linear transfer function (admittance) studies of the relationship between gravity anomalies and topography depends on what assumptions are made in limiting the acceptable set of solutions. However, whatever assumptions are made, the value of the flexural rigidity determined from admittance studies of Australia and the continental United States is less than about 10**28 dyne-cm (5 km plate thickness). This is much less than values determined from other studies of the loading of continental lithosphere which consistently give values in the range of 4 X 10**30 to 2 X 10**31 dyne-cm (elastic plate thickness of 35-60 km). It is argued that the latter values represent the long-term rigidity of the continental lithosphere and that the rigidity does not change greatly with age of loading.

Gravitational radiation from precessing accretion disks in gamma-ray bursts

description: We study the precession of accretion disks in the context of gamma-ray burst inner engines. Our aim is to quantitatively estimate the characteristics of gravitational waves produced by the precession of the transient accretion disk in gamma-ray bursts. We evaluate the possible periods of disk precession caused by the Lense-Thirring effect using an accretion disk model that allows for neutrino cooling. Assuming jet ejection perpendicular to the disk plane and a typical intrinsic time-dependence for the burst, we find gamma-ray light curves that have a temporal microstructure similar to that observed in some reported events. The parameters obtained for the precession are then used to evaluate the production of gravitational waves. We find that the precession of accretion disks of outer radius smaller than $10^8$ cm and accretion rates above 1 solar mass per second could be detected by Advanced LIGO if they occur at distances of less than 100 Mpc. We conclude that the precession of a neutrino-cooled accretion disk in long gamma-ray bursts can be probed by gravitational wave astronomy. Precession of the disks in short gamma-ray events is undetectable with the current technology.

description: This study explores interactions between judges and caseworkers in child maltreatment cases. We examined the extent to which judges demonstrated therapeutic jurisprudence principles (TJ) in their courtroom interactions in light of past findings linking such practices with positive outcomes. Ninety-four child maltreatment proceedings were observed over a one-year period between 2012 and 2013. We found that while some judges created respectful, empathetic, and supportive environments that included caseworkers, other interactions were more negative. Although caseworkers had the most knowledge of, and experience with families, their participation was limited, and conversations were often directed through the attorneys. Shaming rituals also occurred, with judges criticizing workers for the quality of their work, the slowness of the bureaucracy, and other deficiencies. The findings highlight the importance of applying the principles of TJ to all court actors, especially in the family court milieu, where courtrooms are populated by a team of professionals who share the common goal of rehabilitating families when appropriate.

Measurements of ice nucleating particles in the atmosphere : method development and results from field campaigns in North America and Europe
Creators: name: Mason, Ryan H.

description: Ice nucleating particles (INPs), which are a small fraction of the total aerosol population, are capable of catalyzing ice formation under atmospheric conditions. INPs may therefore influence the development, albedo, and lifetime of mixed-phase and ice clouds, and ultimately indirectly effect climate. As this aerosol indirect effect represents one of the largest sources of uncertainty in our understating of climate processes, measurements that quantify and characterize the atmospheric INP population are needed. The micro-orifice uniform deposit impactor-droplet freezing technique (MOUDI-DFT) was developed to measure INP concentrations in the atmosphere as a function of size and temperature in the immersion mode. The first campaign using the MOUDI-DFT was conducted in a Colorado forest. The concentrations of INPs and bioparticles were increased and correlated during and following rainfall events, and their size distributions were similar. This indicates that rainfall-associated mechanisms of bioparticle release may influence the abundance and efficiency of INPs in this region. The MOUDI-DFT was next used at a coastal site in Western Canada. INP concentrations were strongly correlated with those of fluorescent bioparticles and the size distributions of these particles were similar, suggesting bioparticles were an important source of INPs during this study. Despite the predominance of marine air masses, no evidence of a marine INP source was found. Six parameterizations of ice nucleation were tested and found to be poor predictors of the measured INP concentrations, identifying a need to develop INP parameterizations appropriate for coastal environments. Finally, size-resolved INP measurements from six ground-level sites in North America and one in Europe were presented, covering Arctic, alpine, coastal, marine, agricultural, and suburban environments. On average, 78 % of INPs were supermicron in size and 53 % were in the coarse mode (> 2.5 micrometers). Large particles were therefore a significant component of the ground-level INP in these diverse locations. The results presented in this dissertation increase our understanding of atmospheric INP concentrations, composition, and size. This information can be used to constrain INP sources, improve modeling of their long-distance transport and related indirect climate effects, and determine the ability of existing instrumentation to capture the full INP population.

description: This critical ethnographic study of family court child maltreatment proceedings describes and illuminates the ways in which racial, gender, and class disadvantages can manifest on the ground as judges, attorneys, social service workers, and parents—joined often by gender but split by race and class—adjudicate cases. The findings suggest that intersectionality worked in ways that exponentially marginalized poor mothers of color in the courtroom. They were marginalized both through the rules of the adversarial process (which silenced their voices) and through the construction of narratives (which emphasized individual weakness) over structural obstacles as well as personal irresponsibility over expressions of maternal care and concern. Standard due process courtroom practices also communicated bias or social exclusion, especially in a courtroom split by race and class.
