description:
The public, all-sky surveys Gaia and TESS provide the ability to identify new young associations and determine their ages. These associations enable study of planetary evolution by providing new opportunities to discover young exoplanets. A young association was recently identified by Tang et al. and Fürnkranz et al. using astrometry from Gaia (called “Group-X” by the former). In this work, we investigate the age and membership of this association, and we validate the exoplanet TOI 2048 b, which was identified to transit a young, late G dwarf in Group-X using photometry from TESS. We first identified new candidate members of Group-X using Gaia EDR3 data. To infer the age of the association, we measured rotation periods for candidate members using TESS data. The clear color–period sequence indicates that the association is the same age as the 300 ± 50 Myr old NGC 3532. We obtained optical spectra for candidate members that show lithium absorption consistent with this young age. Further, we serendipitously identify a new, small association nearby Group-X, which we call MELANGE-2. Lastly, we statistically validate TOI 2048 b, which is a 2.1 ± 0.2 R ⊕ radius planet on a 13.8-day orbit around its 300 Myr old host star.
Matched filter in the low-number count Poisson noise regime: an efficient and effective implementation

description: The matched filter (MF) is widely used to detect signals hidden within the noise. If the noise is Gaussian, its performances are well-known and describable in an elegant analytical form. The treatment of non-Gaussian noises is often cumbersome as in most cases there is no analytical framework. This is true also for Poisson noise which, especially in the low-number count regime, presents the additional difficulty to be discrete. For this reason in the past methods have been proposed based on heuristic or semi-heuristic arguments. Recently, an analytical form of the MF has been introduced but the computation of the probability of false detection or false alarm (PFA) is based on numerical simulations. To overcome this inefficient and time consuming approach we propose here an effective method to compute the PFA based on the saddle point approximation (SA). We provide the theoretical framework and support our findings by means of numerical simulations. We discuss also the limitations of the MF in practical applications.

description: This paper uses the conditional convergence model for explaining the relative evolution of per capita income across the ten provinces of the Canadian federation between 1950 and 1996. Provincial relative per-capita income steady states are determined by the relative rates of urbanization. Empirical results indicate that the provinces have converged at a speed of about 5 percent per year and, since the mid-1980s, most provinces appeared to be in the neighborhood of their respective steady state. The analysis also indicates that for the provinces of Alberta and Québec, the convergence process was disturbed in the 1970s by different permanent level shocks to their long-run steady states. / Nouveaux résultats portant sur la convergence des provinces canadiennes : le rôle de l’urbanisation - Dans la présente étude, nous tentons d’expliquer l’évolution relative du revenu par habitant entre les dix provinces canadiennes de 1950 à 1996 en utilisant le modèle de convergence conditionnelle. En régime de croissance équilibrée, le revenu provincial relatif par habitant d’une province est principalement déterminé par son taux relatif d’urbanisation. Les résultats de l’analyse empirique indiquent que les économies provinciales ont convergé à un taux annuel moyen d’environ 5 % et que, depuis le milieu des années 1980, la plupart des provinces avoisinent le niveau de leur régime de croissance équilibrée. Cependant, l’analyse montre que dans le cas de l’Alberta et du Québec, le processus de convergence a été perturbé par un bris structurel dans les années 1970 qui s’est traduit par un choc une fois pour toutes sur le niveau du régime de croissance équilibrée.

description: We discuss about effects of the non-standard interaction of neutrinos with matter on the nu_e appearance search in the MINOS experiment. We consider the effects of the complex phase of the interaction and of the uncertainty on theta_23 also. We show that the oscillation probability can be so large that can not be explained by the ordinary oscillation. We show also how much constraints on the non-standard effects can be improved if the experiment does not observe nu_e appearance signal.

description: Background: People seek to be physically attractive and the need to fit the beauty model. This urge to meet unrealistic ideals lead to discontent with an individual’s body image. Liposuction is a procedure that helps in weight redistribution according to a patient’s ideal. This study investigated the impact of liposuction on the quality of life of a patient and body image in a sample Kenyan population.

Methods: This was a prospective observational study that was conducted in the three centres. Patients were subjected to BODY-Q questionnaire, pre-operatively and 6 months post-operatively. Data collected included: patients’ demographics, body semblance evaluation, health-associated life quality measures, complications postoperatively, and technique of surgery used. Differences between the pre-and post-op scores were assessed using a paired t-test or the repeated measure ANOVA. A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Results: The study included 50 patients, with a mean age of 35.4 years and a BMI of 28.0 kg/m2. The factors that had an effect on certain domains of the quality-of-life included age (p-value = 0.019), BMI (p-value = 0.049)., surgical procedure (p-value = 0.034), and postoperative complications (p-value = 0.049. The quality of life improved after surgery.

Conclusion: The findings emphasise the positive effect that liposuction has on patients.

description: This report provides a step-by-step guide for profiling-discovering public-facing assets on a network-using network flow (netflow) data. Netflow data can be used for forensic purposes, for finding malicious activity, and for determining appropriate prioritization settings. The goal of this report is to create a profile to see a potential attacker's view of an external network. Readers will learn how to choose a data set, find the top assets and services with the most traffic on the network, and profile several services. A case study provides an example of the profiling process. The underlying concepts of using netflow data are presented so that readers can apply the approach to other cases. A reader using this report to profile a network can expect to end with a list of public-facing assets and the ports on which each is communicating and may also learn other pertinent information, such as external IP addresses, to which the asset is connecting. This report also provides ideas for using, maintaining, and reporting on findings. The appendices include an example profile and scripts for running the commands in the report. The scripts are a summary only and cannot replace reading and understanding this report.

description: Background: Food and beverage promotion is a contributor to children’s dietary behaviours, and ultimately, downstream health consequences. Broadcast television remains an important source of such advertising. The objective of this study was to examine and compare children and adolescent’s exposure to food advertising on television in Canada over an entire year in a self-regulatory environment. Methods: Television advertising data for 57 selected food and beverage categories were licensed from Numerator for 36 stations in Toronto, for 2019. The estimated average number of advertisements viewed by children aged 2–11 and adolescents aged 12–17 was determined overall, by food category, and by marketing technique. The healthfulness of advertisements was also assessed using Health Canada’s Nutrient Profile Model. Results: Overall in 2019, children viewed 2234.4 food ads/person/yr while adolescents viewed 1631.7 ads, exposure for both groups stemmed primarily from stations with general appeal, and both age groups were exposed to a range of powerful marketing techniques. Exposure to advertising for restaurants, snacks, breakfast food and candy and chocolate was high among both age groups and the healthfulness of most advertised products was considered poor. Adolescents were exposed to 36.4% more food products classified as unhealthy, had higher exposure to all marketing techniques examined, and were exposed to substantially more child-related marketing techniques compared to children. Conclusion: Children and adolescents were heavily exposed to food advertisements on television in 2019. Despite current self-regulatory policies, children’s exposure to unhealthy food and beverages remains high. Differences in exposure to food advertisements by food category and healthfulness may suggest that adolescents are being disproportionately targeted by food companies as a result of self-regulatory marketing restrictions.

description: The representation theory of de Sitter space allows for a category of partially massless particles which have no flat space analog, but could have existed during inflation. We study the couplings of these exotic particles to inflationary perturbations and determine the resulting signatures in cosmological correlators. When inflationary perturbations interact through the exchange of these fields, their correlation functions inherit scalings that cannot be mimicked by extra massive fields. We discuss in detail the squeezed limit of the tensor-scalar-scalar bispectrum, and show that certain partially massless fields can violate the tensor consistency relation of single-field inflation. We also consider the collapsed limit of the scalar trispectrum, and find that the exchange of partially massless fields enhances its magnitude, while giving no contribution to the scalar bispectrum. These characteristic signatures provide clean detection channels for partially massless fields during inflation.

description: Don Luis de Góngora y de Argote, poète espagnol, a laissé en héritage au monde littéraire espagnol et aux littératures du monde en général, une œuvre marquante d’une importance majeure. Créateur du « gongorisme » à l’époque du baroque, Góngora se distingue par les difficultés qu’il pose sur le plan stylistique et au niveau de la compréhension, un style souvent qualifié d’obscur. Les jeux de mots ou calembours, les successions de concepts, d’antithèses, d’hyperboles, d’allusions mythologiques, de cultismes, de références humoristiques et de métaphores abondent dans l’œuvre gongorine, une œuvre qui ne peut être aimée par tous puisqu’elle nécessite de ses lecteurs certaines connaissances, en d’autres mots, une certaine culture. Dans l’article qui suit, nous proposons d’adapter en français canadien contemporain le magnifique sonnet « Mientras por compatir con tu cabello » dans le but de le faire lire et apprécier par une génération bien spécifique, soit la génération jeunesse des 13 à 19 ans. Nous croyons qu’il est primordial que cette génération soit exposée au génie et à la poésie gongorins. Trouver une façon de vulgariser l’œuvre du grand poète espagnol est une façon de lui rendre hommage à l’approche des célébrations qui marqueront dans une dizaine d’années les 400 ans de sa mort. Mais, c’est d’abord et avant tout un moyen de faire connaître sa poésie aux jeunes d’aujourd’hui, qui, nous pourrions croire, portent plus d’intérêt et d’attention aux nouvelles technologies qu’à la poésie baroque espagnole. Adapter Góngora représente donc un défi à relever.

description: We present one of the most precise emission spectra of an exoplanet observed so far. We combine five secondary eclipses of the hot Jupiter WASP-18 b (Tday=2900K) that we secured between 1.1 and 1.7 micron with the WFC3 instrument aboard the Hubble Space Telescope. Our extracted spectrum (S/N=50, R=40) does not exhibit clearly identifiable molecular features but is poorly matched by a blackbody spectrum. We complement this data with previously published Spitzer/IRAC observations of this target and interpret the combined spectrum by computing a grid of self-consistent, 1D forward models, varying the composition and energy budget. At these high temperatures, we find there are important contributions to the overall opacity from H- ions, as well as the removal of major molecules by thermal dissociation (including water), and thermal ionization of metals. These effects were omitted in previous spectral retrievals for very hot gas giants, and we argue that they must be included to properly interpret the spectra of these objects. We infer a new metallicity and C/O ratio for WASP-18 b, and find them well constrained to be solar ([M/H]=-0.01 (0.35), C/O<0.85 at 3 sigma confidence level), unlike previous work but in line with expectations for giant planets. The best fitting self-consistent temperature-pressure profiles are inverted, resulting in an emission feature at 4.5 micron seen in the Spitzer photometry. These results further strengthen the evidence that the family of very hot gas giant exoplanets commonly exhibit thermal inversions.

De esta forma se pudo identificar las relaciones entre las dimensiones poblacionales, ambientales, socio institucionales y económicas; analizar las implicaciones, las tensiones, el establecimiento de la configuración actual y grado de insostenibilidad del territorio, para proponer una configuración deseada, de manera concertada con los actores locales, quienes aportaron información primaria en medio de las actividades de campo y momentos de debate entre comerciantes, lideres comunales y autoridades locales. Esta investigación permitió evidenciar como se ha generado transformación en el uso del suelo, crecimiento del área urbanizada fuera de los límites establecidos en el POT, interacción con otras culturas y las presiones que se generan al ambiente natural, por las actividades antrópicas en la búsqueda de espacios co-habitables para actividad comercial y residencial. Con los resultados de la investigación, se generan las bases para que la sociedad civil arraigada en Minca, redoble los esfuerzos para proteger al corregimiento de afectaciones futuras al entorno y la cohesión social.

The Westminster Dog Show: A Probe into the Human/Dog Relationship
Creators: name: Urban, Ashley

description: This research paper explores the human-dog relationship in the context of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Many researchers have explored human-dog relationships across a variety of settings (Haraway, 2003, Simon, 2015, Anderson, 1986 & Porter, 2018). I have conducted an ethnographic probe to review videos and other documentation of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show to explore the relationships between humans and dogs. I relied on interviews and videos surrounding the dog show to document how humans perceived their relationships with their dogs and how they interacted with their dogs. Common themes emerged from the interviews and interactions that were used to help describe the qualities of this human-dog relationship within the context of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. I suggest that the relationships examined as part of this probe showcased qualities of autonomic beings coming together for a common purpose. The relationships reviewed showcased a non-contingent connectedness between humans and dogs where they shared connectivity in their actions and emotions. Through the individual relationships examined, I suggest that these relationships exemplify companionship relationships. I also explore the cohistories of humans and dogs through the example of the relationship between humans and the Bulldog breed to showcase how social factors, like class and sport have shaped human-dog relationships. I explore the concept of dog breeding and suggest that although breeding involves manipulation of a dog’s genetics, the overall concept of breeding is an example of biopower that helps encourage breeders to breed with good intentions to produce high-quality and healthy dogs. Lastly, I explore human-dog relationships on a local and global level to suggest that this multi-species relationship can be described as an anthropo-zoo-genesis that is acted out through the production of affect towards one another.

description: We propose a new practical adaptive refinement strategy for $hp$-finite element approximations of elliptic problems. Following recent theoretical developments in polynomial-degree-robust a posteriori error analysis, we solve two types of discrete local problems on vertex-based patches. The first type involves the solution on each patch of a mixed finite element problem with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, which leads to an ${\mathbf H}(\mathrm{div},Ω)$-conforming equilibrated flux. This, in turn, yields a guaranteed upper bound on the error and serves to mark mesh vertices for refinement via Dörfler's bulk-chasing criterion. The second type of local problems involves the solution, on patches associated with marked vertices only, of two separate primal finite element problems with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, which serve to decide between $h$-, $p$-, or $hp$-refinement. Altogether, we show that these ingredients lead to a computable guaranteed bound on the ratio of the errors between successive refinements (error reduction factor). In a series of numerical experiments featuring smooth and singular solutions, we study the performance of the proposed $hp$-adaptive strategy and observe exponential convergence rates. We also investigate the accuracy of our bound on the reduction factor by evaluating the ratio of the predicted reduction factor relative to the true error reduction, and we find that this ratio is in general quite close to the optimal value of one.

description: We first present the definition that doctrine and jurisprudence have given on the insurance contract; its characteristics and essential elements. Then, we discuss some of the risk transfer alternatives that exist in the insurance market, such as reinsurance and coinsurance (i.e. joint coverage). Once risk transfer alternatives have been identified, we study coinsurance policy, as well as the role of the leading coinsurer company, the types of coinsurance policies and the nature of the obligation that is assumed by each coninsurer. We perform a legal study of the concept of “litisconsortium”, “facultative litisconsortium”, “necessary litisconsortium”, “quasi-neccesary litisconsortium”an the call guarantee is made. Finally, we present how the types of litisconsortium and the call in guarantee have been applied in the coinsurance policy in case law; speccifically presenting some contradicting positions in case law. The most relevant part of the study compares the characteristics of each litisconsortium with the characteristics of coinsurance and, from these grounds, determine the applicable kind of litisconsortium in a coinsurance policy.

description:
Early-phase HIV remission ("cure") trials aim to test interventions developed to eradicate HIV or to sustainably control HIV without antiretroviral treatment (ART). Many remission trials include analytic treatment interruption (ATI) to evaluate interventions, which increases the risk to participants and their sexual partners. We conducted an online questionnaire of international HIV remission trial investigators and other study team members to assess their expectations regarding the time to achieve long-term control of HIV replication without treatment (functional cure) or complete eradication of replication-competent HIV virus (sterilizing cure); attitudes toward HIV remission research and the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of six HIV transmission risk mitigation strategies during trials with ATI of fixed duration. Nearly half of respondents (47%) reported expecting a functional cure for HIV to be achieved in 5-10 years, and one-third (35%) reported 10-20 years for a sterilizing cure to be achieved. On a scale of -3 to 3, mean scores indicated greater respondent concern about the risk of HIV transmission to partners during ATI (Time to rebound Mean: 0.4 and Fixed duration Mean: 11), compared to participant health risks from ATI (Time to Rebound Mean: -.9 and Fixed duration Mean: 0.0). With regard to feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy respectively, mitigation efforts rated positively included: requiring counseling for potential participants (Means: 2.3; 2.1; and 1.1), providing partner referrals for PrEP (Means: 1.3; 1.3; 1.5), providing pre-exposure proxylaxis directly to partners (Means: 1.0; 1.5; 1.6), and monitoring participants for new sexually transmitted disease acquisition (Means: 1.9; 1.4; 1.0). Respondents were less positive about requiring that participants' sexual partner(s) participate in risk counseling or limiting participation to those who commit to abstaining from sex during the entire ATI period. Our study demonstrates that HIV remission trial investigators and study team members are concerned about the risk of transmission to sexual partners during ATI. Separating the assessment of risk mitigation strategies for transmission risk into feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy allows the discovery of strategies that may best achieve all three outcomes. Additional research is needed to compare these more fine-grained assessments with views held by other investigators, people living with HIV, and trial participants.

description: Near-field microscopy is widely used for characterizing electromagnetic fields at nanoscale, where nanoprobes afford the opportunity to extract subwavelength optical quantities, including the amplitude, phase, polarization and chirality. However, owing to the complexity of various nanoprobes, a general and intuitive theory is highly needed to assess the vectorial field response of the nanoprobes and interpret the mechanism of the probe-field interaction. Here, we develop a general imaging theory based on the reciprocity of electromagnetism and multipole expansion analysis. The proposed theory closely resembles the multipolar Hamiltonian for light-matter interaction energy, revealing the coupling mechanism of the probe-field interaction. Based on this theory, we introduce a new paradigm for the design of functional nanoprobes by analyzing the reciprocal dipole moments, and establish effective design principles for the imaging of vectorial near fields. Moreover, we numerically analyze the responses of two typical probes, which can quantitatively reproduce and well explain the experimental results of previously reported measurements of optical magnetism and transverse spin angular momentum. Our work provides a powerful tool for the design and analysis of new functional probes that may enable the probing of various physical quantities of the vectorial near field.

description: Desde que se implementó el sistema penal de tendencia acusatoria en nuestro país mediante la Ley 906 de 2004, diversos han sido los alcances que ha tenido la exigencia de congruencia en este sistema procesal los cuales han sido recogidos en la doctrina y la jurisprudencia de la Corte Suprema de Justicia. El presente trabajo tiene como fin establecer la interpretación y alcance que debe tener la garantía de congruencia en el proceso penal colombiano a partir del marco constitucional vinculante para el proceso penal y relacionado con aquella, para posteriormente, hacer una propuesta de interpretación de esta dentro del procedimiento previsto en la Ley 906 de 2004 y hacer una sugerencia de restructuración del proceso con el propósito de mejorar el alcance propuesto para aquella.
description: Since the accusatory penal system was implemented in our country through Law 906 of 2004, there have been various scopes for the requirement of consistency in this procedural system, which have been included in the doctrine and jurisprudence of the Supreme Court of Justice. The purpose of this work is to establish the interpretation and scope that the guarantee of consistency in the Colombian criminal process must have from the binding constitutional framework for the criminal process and related to it, to subsequently make a proposal for its interpretation within the procedure provided for in Law 906 of 2004 and make a suggestion for restructuring the process with the purpose of improving the scope proposed for it.

description: This study explores the relationship between unethical peer behavior and observers’

description: also introduces “moral differentiation,” a new multidimensional construct which is predicted to

description: Using data collected from 655 undergraduate students at two universities (Study 1), the
description: results generally provide support for all three theoretical models. With regard to social learning
description: theory and social identity theory, vicarious learning and perceived fit with group identity
description: partially mediated the relationship between unethical peer behavior and observers’ unethical
description: behavior. Further, strength of identification and self esteem were found to moderate the
description: relationship between perceived fit with group identity and observers’ unethical behavior, such
description: that the relationship was stronger for low identifying and low self-esteem individuals. With
description: regard to social comparison theory, relative deprivation and negative self-feelings were found to
description: mediate the relationship between unethical peer behavior and observers’ unethical behavior.
description: Self-improvement was found to moderate the relationship between negative self-feelings and
description: observer unethical behavior, such that the more an individual has negative self-feelings and is
description: high in self-improvement, the less likely the individual is to engage in unethical activities. Some
description: elements of the new moral differentiation construct were found to moderate the relationship
description: between unethical peer behavior and observers’ unethical behavior, as did self-monitoring and
description: ethical culture. The hypothesized relationships were generally not supported in data gathered

description: Plasma turbulence, and edge density fluctuations in particular, can under certain conditions broaden the cross-section of injected microwave beams significantly. This can be a severe problem for applications relying on well-localized deposition of the microwave power, like the control of MHD instabilities. Here we investigate this broadening mechanism as a function of fluctuation level, background density and propagation length in a fusion-relevant scenario using two numerical codes, the full-wave code IPF-FDMC and the novel wave kinetic equation solver WKBeam. The latter treats the effects of fluctuations using a statistical approach, based on an iterative solution of the scattering problem (Born approximation). The full-wave simulations are used to benchmark this approach. The Born approximation is shown to be valid over a large parameter range, including ITER-relevant scenarios.

description: This study provides an initial assessment of the U.S.'s industrial capacity to produce MCCR software. A survey of senior government and industry people showed that 90 percent of them expected a serious problem with the nation's capacity to produce military software over the next 5 years. They ranked acquisition and labor factors as contributing most to the failure of military system development contracts to meet schedule or costs. The study team also analyzed available data about the supply of labor (new graduates and experienced scientists and engineers) and three aspects of demand (ADA systems, PDSS, and related commercial applications) before concluding there is a serious capacity problem. The report describes labor, organizational, and technological issues affecting software production capacity and concludes with some preliminary recommendations for DoD and industry initiatives.
