description: Als eine der wenigen additiven Fertigungsmethoden ermöglicht der 3D-Tintenstrahldruck die Multimaterialabscheidung. Es besteht jedoch ein Bedarf an Funktions- und Strukturmaterialien. Unter anderem werden thermisch leitfähige Polymer-Keramik-Komposite zur thermischen Regulierung benötigt. In dieser Arbeit wurden drei neue Arten von Al2O3-Partikel gefüllten Tinten hergestellt und untersucht. Allen voran sind es die thermisch leitfähigen, Partikel gefüllten Tinten, die anfänglich ohne, später aber mit volatilen Lösungsmitteln hergestellt wurden, um den Füllgrad zu steigern. Des Weiteren wurden Untersuchungen zu der Auswirkung von Nanopartikeln auf die Zähigkeit und Bruchdehnung von Kompositen angestellt, welche in lösungsmittelfreien UV härtbaren Tinten mündeten. Bei der Herstellung wurde die Keramik in einer Planetenkugelmühle homogenisiert und zerkleinert. Zeitgleich oder im Anschluss an die Mahlung wurden den Partikeln die Dispergatoren 3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propylmethacrylat oder 2-[2-(2-Methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]essig-säure hinzugegeben. Je nachdem, ob die Mahlung in einem volatilen Mahlmedium oder direkt schon in der organischen Matrix stattfand, wurden die Partikel im ersteren Fall getrocknet und im letzteren direkt für die Verwendung abgefüllt. Die getrockneten Partikel wurden im Anschluss in die organische Matrix eingearbeitet. Der Prozess wurde von Analysemessungen begleitet, welche zum einen das Pulver und zum anderen die fertige Komposit-Tinte charakterisierten. Die Charakterisierung der Tinten umfasste rheologische Messungen, Stabilitätsuntersuchungen und Tintenstrahl-Drucktests. Gedruckte Komposit-Prüfkörper wurden mechanisch und thermisch analysiert. Die Nanokomposit-Tinten zeigten keine nennenswerten Verbesserungen der mechanischen Eigenschaften bei den untersuchten Parametern. Die zweite lösungsmittelfreie Tinte führt zu einem Komposit mit einem Füllgrad von 30 Vol% und einer thermischen Leitfähigkeit von 0,6 W/(m·K). Die Untersuchung der lösungsmittel-haltigen Tinten ergab ein Material mit einem Füllgrad von 50 Vol% und einer thermischen Leitfähigkeit von 1 W/(m·K), ein bisher unerreichtes Ergebnis. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften zeigten einen E-Modul von 2,4 GPa, eine Zugfestigkeit von 40 MPa, eine Bruchdehnung von 1 % und eine Zähigkeit von 1,3 J/m³. Sowohl die lösungsmittelfreie als auch lösungsmittelhaltige Tinte wurden für die Herstellung von Komponenten zu Demonstrationszwecken verwendet.

description: The XL-Calibur balloon-borne hard X-ray polarimetry mission comprises a Compton-scattering polarimeter placed at the focal point of an X-ray mirror. The polarimeter is housed within a BGO anticoincidence shield, which is needed to mitigate the considerable background radiation present at the observation altitude of ~40 km. This paper details the design, construction and testing of the anticoincidence shield, as well as the performance measured during the week-long maiden flight from Esrange Space Centre to the Canadian Northwest Territories in July 2022. The in-flight performance of the shield followed design expectations, with a veto threshold <100 keV and a measured background rate of ~0.5 Hz (20-40 keV). This is compatible with the scientific goals of the mission, where %-level minimum detectable polarisation is sought for a Hz-level source rate.

description: ArTeMiS is a wide-field submillimeter camera operating at three wavelengths simultaneously (200, 350 and 450 microns). A preliminary version of the instrument equipped with the 350 microns focal plane, has been successfully installed and tested on APEX telescope in Chile during the 2013 and 2014 austral winters. This instrument is developed by CEA (Saclay and Grenoble, France), IAS (France) and University of Manchester (UK) in collaboration with ESO. We introduce the mechanical and optical design, as well as the cryogenics and electronics of the ArTeMiS camera. ArTeMiS detectors are similar to the ones developed for the Herschel PACS photometer but they are adapted to the high optical load encountered at APEX site. Ultimately, ArTeMiS will contain 4 sub-arrays at 200 microns and 2x8 sub-arrays at 350 and 450 microns. We show preliminary lab measurements like the responsivity of the instrument to hot and cold loads illumination and NEP calculation. Details on the on-sky commissioning runs made in 2013 and 2014 at APEX are shown. We used planets (Mars, Saturn, Uranus) to determine the flat-field and to get the flux calibration. A pointing model was established in the first days of the runs. The average relative pointing accuracy is 3 arcsec. The beam at 350 microns has been estimated to be 8.5 arcsec, which is in good agreement with the beam of the 12 m APEX dish. Several observing modes have been tested, like On-The-Fly for beam-maps or large maps, spirals or raster of spirals for compact sources. With this preliminary version of ArTeMiS, we concluded that the mapping speed is already more than 5 times better than the previous 350 microns instrument at APEX. The median NEFD at 350 microns is 600 mJy.s1/2, with best values at 300 mJy.s1/2. The complete instrument with 5760 pixels and optimized settings will be installed during the first half of 2015.

description: The thesis concerns the analysis of the Active Galactic Nuclei. These are galaxies with an active core. The most luminous type of Active Galactic Nuclei is Quasar. It contains the supermassive black hole at the center. One of the least known subtype of Quasars are: Weak emission-Line Quasars. Their recognizable feature are weak emission-lines. The primary goal of PhD thesis is to evaluate the global parameters such as: the black hole mass, the accretion rate, spin of the black hole, and the inclination of weak emission-line quasars based on the continuum fit method. This method apart from the literature black hole masses estimation methods does not depend on the observed Full Width at Half Maximum of emission line, which could be biased due to the weakness or lack of the emission lines in these quasars. Using the Spectral Energy Distribution of quasars, I have fitted the geometrically thin and optically thick accretion disk model described by Novikov \& Thorne equations. I have obtained the model of the continuum of the accretion disk for the 10 weak emission-line quasars. The second project concerned the description of abnormal, deep absorption of SDSS J110511.15+530806.5 quasar. I checked the correctness of the thesis posed that corona and warm skin concept above/around an accretion disk explain this phenomenon.

description: Bordetella pertussis causes pertussis (or whooping cough), a severe respiratory infectious disease in infants, although it can be prevented by whole cell and acellular vaccines. The recent pertussis resurgence in industrialised countries is partly attributed to pathogen adaptation to vaccines, while emergence of antimicrobial resistance, specifically to macrolides in China, has become a concern. Surveillance of current circulating and emerging strains is therefore vital to understand the risks they pose to public health. Although there is increased genomics-based typing, a genomic nomenclature for this pathogen has not been well established. Here, we implemented the Multilevel Genome Typing (MGT) system for B. pertussis with five levels of resolution, which provide targeted typing of relevant lineages and discrimination of closely related strains at the finest scale. The low-resolution levels (MGT2 and MGT3) describe the distribution of major vaccine antigen alleles including ptxP, fim3, fhaB and prn, as well as temporal and spatial trends within the B. pertussis global population. Mid-resolution levels (MGT3 and MGT4) enable typing of antibiotic resistant lineages and Prn deficient lineages within the ptxP3 clade. The high-resolution level (MGT5) can capture finer-scale epidemiology such as outbreaks and local transmission events, with comparable resolution to existing genomic methods of strain relatedness assessment. The scheme offers stable MGT type assignments aiding harmonisation of typing and communication between laboratories. The scheme is available at https://mgtdb.unsw.edu.au/pertussis, is regularly updated from global data repositories and accepts public submissions. The MGT scheme provides a comprehensive, robust, and scalable system for global surveillance of B. pertussis.

description: Detection of groups of interacting people is a very interesting and useful task in many modern technologies, with application fields spanning from video-surveillance to social robotics. In this paper we first furnish a rigorous definition of group considering the background of the social sciences: this allows us to specify many kinds of group, so far neglected in the Computer Vision literature. On top of this taxonomy, we present a detailed state of the art on the group detection algorithms. Then, as a main contribution, we present a brand new method for the automatic detection of groups in still images, which is based on a graph-cuts framework for clustering individuals; in particular we are able to codify in a computational sense the sociological definition of F-formation, that is very useful to encode a group having only proxemic information: position and orientation of people. We call the proposed method Graph-Cuts for F-formation (GCFF). We show how GCFF definitely outperforms all the state of the art methods in terms of different accuracy measures (some of them are brand new), demonstrating also a strong robustness to noise and versatility in recognizing groups of various cardinality.

description: We prove that the reciprocal of Fisher information of a log-concave probability density $X$ in ${\bf{R}}^n$ is concave in $t$ with respect to the addition of a Gaussian noise $Z_t = N(0, tI_n)$. As a byproduct of this result we show that the third derivative of the entropy power of a log-concave probability density $X$ in ${\bf{R}}^n$ is nonnegative in $t$ with respect to the addition of a Gaussian noise $Z_t$. For log-concave densities this improves the well-known Costa's concavity property of the entropy power.

description: Large-scale outflows are believed to be an important mechanism in the evolution of galaxies. We can determine the impact of these outflows by studying either current galaxy outflows and their effect in the galaxy or by studying the effect of past outflows on the gas surrounding the galaxy. In this work, we examine the CO(7-6), [CI]\,($^{3} \rm P_{1} \rightarrow {\rm ^3 P}_{0}$), H$_2$O 2$_{11}$--2$_{02}$ and dust continuum emission of 15 extremely red quasars (ERQs) at z$\sim$2.3 using ALMA. By investigating the radial surface brightness profiles of both the individual sources and the stacked emission, we detect extended cold gas and dust emission on scales of $\sim$14 kpc in CO(7-6), [CI](2-1), and dust continuum. This is the first time that the presence of a large amount of molecular gas was detected on large, circum-galactic medium scales around quasar host galaxies using [CI] extended emission. We estimate the dust and molecular gas mass of these halos to be 10$^{7.6}$ and 10$^{10.6}$ M$_\odot$, indicating significant dust and molecular gas reservoirs around these extreme quasars. By estimating the timescale at which this gas can reach these distances by molecular gas outflows (7-32 Myr), we conclude that these halos are a relic of past AGN or starburst activity, rather than an effect of the current episode of extreme quasar activity.

description: Diagnosing the spatial-temporal pattern of magnetic flux on the Sun is vital for understanding the origin of solar magnetism and activity. Here, we report a new form of flux appearance, magnetic outbreak, using observations with an extremely high spatial resolution of 0.16 arcsec from the 1.6-m Goode Solar Telescope (GST) at the Big Bear Solar Observatory. Magnetic outbreak refers to an early growth of unipolar magnetic flux and its later explosion into fragments, in association with plasma upflow and exploding granulations; each individual fragment has flux of 10$^{16}$-10$^{17}$ Mx, moving apart with velocity of 0.5-2.2 km/s. The magnetic outbreak takes place in the hecto-Gauss region of pore moats. In this study, we identify six events of magnetic outbreak during 6-hour observations over an approximate 40$\times$40 arcsec$^{2}$ field of view. The newly discovered magnetic outbreak might be the first evidence of the long-anticipated convective blowup.

description: The city of Volta Redonda, located in the south of the state of Rio de Janeiro, ispopularly known for being the city in which the Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (CSN)was built in 1946, after the former president Getúlio Vargas signed the decree lawdetermining its creation. Attracting people from neighboring states, CSN is one of thelargest steel mills in the country, with great relevance for Volta Redonda and for thecountry, generating jobs and being part of the residents’ daily life. Volta Redonda wasnot a city that was built around CSN by chance, the choice of this territory to host thesteel mill was based on specific factors, such as the presence of a flat terrain, largewater reserves, a railway line, and its geographical location, achieving its logisticalimportance. CSN acted based on the company-town’s architectural model, in which itexerted great influence on the local physical space: the occupation of the new town,the central area of the city controlled by the company, obeyed the hierarchy thatreigned inside the CSN plant, with noble neighborhoods for the high-level employees,middle-class neighborhoods and working-class neighborhoods for the low-levelemployees. Such importance of CSN for the city and mainly for the country, culminatedwith the decree of the city as a national security area in 1976. Volta Redonda wasnamed as a national security area, thanks to the third institutional act (AI-3) issued in1966, which meant a greater control of the military regime over the city.

description: We explore the processes of repetitive build-up and explosive release of magnetic energy together with the formation of magnetic flux ropes that eventually resulted into three homologous eruptive flares of successively increasing intensities (i.e., M2.0, M2.6, and X1.0). The flares originated from NOAA active region 12017 during 2014 March 28-29. EUV observations and magnetogram measurements together with coronal magnetic field modeling suggest that the flares were triggered by the eruption of flux ropes embedded by a densely packed system of loops within a small part of the active region. In X-rays, the first and second events show similar evolution with single, compact sources, while the third event exhibits multiple emission centroids with a set of strong non-thermal conjugate sources at 50-100 keV during the HXR peak. The photospheric magnetic field over an interval of approximately 44 hr encompassing the three flares undergoes important phases of emergence and cancellation processes together with significant changes near the polarity inversion lines within the flaring region. Our observations point toward the tether-cutting mechanism as the plausible triggering process of the eruptions. Between the second and third event, we observe a prominent phase of flux emergence which temporally correlates with the build-up phase of free magnetic energy in the active region corona. In conclusion, our analysis reveals an efficient coupling between the rapidly evolving photospheric and coronal magnetic fields in the active region that led to a continued phase of the build-up of free energy, resulting into the homologous flares of successively increasing intensities.

description: We present deep H-band surface photometry and analysis of 40 Local Volume galaxies, a sample primarily composed of dwarf irregulars in the Cen A group, obtained using the IRIS2 detector at the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope. We probe to a surface brightness of ~25 mag arcsec$^{-2}$, reaching a 40 times lower stellar density than the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS). Employing extremely careful and rigorous cleaning techniques to remove contaminating sources, we perform surface photometry on 33 detected galaxies deriving the observed total magnitude, effective surface brightness and best fitting Sérsic parameters. We make image quality and surface photometry comparisons to 2MASS and VISTA Hemispheric Survey (VHS) demonstrating that deep targeted surveys are still the most reliable means of obtaining accurate surface photometry. We investigate the B-H colours with respect to mass for Local Volume galaxies, finding that the colours of dwarf irregulars are significantly varied, eliminating the possibility of using optical-NIR colour transformations to facilitate comparison to the more widely available optical data sets. The structure-luminosity relationships are investigated for our `clean' sample of dwarf irregulars. We demonstrate that a significant fraction of the Local Volume dwarf irregular population have underlying structural properties similar to both Local Volume and Virgo Cluster dwarf ellipticals. Linear regressions to structure-luminosity relationships for the Local Volume galaxies and Virgo Cluster dwarf ellipticals show significant differences in both slope and scatter around the established trend lines, suggesting that environment might regulate the structural scaling relationships of dwarf galaxies in comparison to their more isolated counterparts.

description: We use high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope imaging data of dwarf galaxies in the Local Volume ($\lesssim 11$ Mpc) to parameterise 19 newly discovered nuclear star clusters (NSCs). Most of the clusters have stellar masses of $M_{\star}^{nsc} \lesssim 10^6$ M$_{\odot}$ and compare to Galactic globular clusters in terms of ellipticity, effective radius, stellar mass, and surface density. The clusters are modelled with a Sérsic profile and their surface brightness evaluated at the effective radius reveals a tight positive correlation to the host galaxy stellar mass. Our data also indicate an increase in slope of the density profiles with increasing mass, perhaps indicating an increasing role for in-situ star formation in more massive hosts. We evaluate the scaling relation between the clusters and their host galaxy stellar mass to find an environmental dependence: for NSCs in field galaxies, the slope of the relation is $α= 0.82^{+0.08}_{-0.08}$ whereas $α= 0.55^{+0.06}_{-0.05}$ for dwarfs in the core of the Virgo cluster. Restricting the fit for the cluster to $M_{\star}^{gal} \geq 10^{6.5}$ M$_{\odot}$ yields $α= 0.70^{+0.08}_{-0.07}$, in agreement with the field environment within the $1σ$ interval. The environmental dependence is due to the lowest-mass nucleated galaxies and we speculate that this is either due to an increased number of progenitor globular clusters merging to become an NSC, or due to the formation of more massive globular clusters in dense environments, depending on the initial globular cluster mass function. Our results clearly corroborate recent results in that there exists a tight connection between NSCs and globular clusters in dwarf galaxies.

A Third Wave of Remembering The Mediterranean Sea as a Septic Tank
Creators: name: Vitanza, Victor J.
Publisher: name: Universita' degli Studi di Salerno
Year: 2018
Subjects: Mediterranean
Septic-skeptic
Latitudes-longitudes
Yet attitudes

description: The argument focuses on the differences in methods of historiographies as put forth by David Abulafia and Fernand Braudel. Their object-of-study is the Mediterranean Sea. Abulafia focuses primarily on human beings making history, while Braudel focuses on the Sea making itself, not primarily, as Abulafia insists in his title “A Human History.” Their vocabulary, as assumed, focuses on latitudes and longitudes. In a radical turn, Kenneth Burke focuses on the third as attitudes toward history and on casuistic stretchings. Gregory Ulmer, following-rethinking Burke, develops para-methodologies in the entitlement of “MEmorial,” that also combines both horizontal-vertical histories. Ulmer’s thoughts piggy-back on Burke allowing also for the excluded third by way of the reality, as well as the metaphor, of the Mediterranean Sea, as a Septic Tank, with the casuistic stretching of the Sea, as a Skeptic Tank. Hence, the writing is better performed than a writing of exposition, which the latter would only be a performative contradiction!

description: Advances in silicon photonics have resulted in rapidly increasing complexity of integrated circuits. New methods are desirable that allow direct characterization of individual optical components in-situ, without the need for additional fabrication steps or test structures. Here, we present a new device-level method for characterization of photonic chips based on a highly localized modulation in the device using pulsed laser excitation. Optical pumping perturbs the refractive index of silicon, providing a spatially and temporally localized modulation in the transmitted light enabling time- and frequency-resolved imaging. We demonstrate the versatility of this all-optical modulation technique in imaging and in quantitative characterization of a variety of properties of silicon photonic devices, ranging from group indices in waveguides, quality factors of a ring resonator to the mode structure of a multimode interference device. Ultrafast photomodulation spectroscopy provides important information on devices of complex design, and is easily applicable for testing on the device-level.

BBC ShakespeareTold

description: The Taming of the Shrew produced by the bbc, written by Sally Wainwright and directed by David Richards is the last of a very long series of screen adaptations of the Shakespearean Shrew and was broadcast in 2005 together with three other rewritings – Much Ado about Nothing (David Nicholls), Macbeth (Peter Moffat) and A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Peter Bowker) – under the umbrella title of “ShakespeaRe-Told”. This label not only makes the series very snappy, but also gives an idea (consciously or not) of the kind of connection, still persisting between “original” texts and their rewritings, through the smart linguistic joke offered by last syllable connecting the two words and by the use of the hyphen. Whether and how Shakespeare is told or re-told through and by Wainwright’s The Taming of the Shrew will be the main focus of this paper, which will also discuss in the first part some stages of the history of Shakespearean adaptations since its eighteenth-century origin.

description: We investigate the $\mathcal R$-boundedness of operator families belonging to the Boutet de Monvel calculus. In particular, we show that weakly and strongly parameter-dependent Green operators of nonpositive order are $\mathcal R$-bounded. Such operators appear as resolvents of non-local (pseudodifferential) boundary value problems. As a consequence, we obtain maximal $L_p$-regularity for such boundary value problems. An example is given by the reduced Stokes equation in waveguides.

description: Management of solitons in media with competing quadratic and cubic nonlinearities is investigated. Two schemes, using rapid modulations of a mismatch parameter, and of the Kerr nonlinearity parameter are studied. For both cases, the averaged in time wave equations are derived. In the case of mismatch management, the region of the parameters where stabilization is possible is found. In the case of Kerr nonlinearity management, it is shown that the effective $χ^{(2)}$ nonlinearity depends on the intensity imbalance between fundamental (FH) and second (SH) harmonics. Predictions obtained from the averaged equations are confirmed by numerical simulations of the full PDE's.

description: Structural changes in Ti1-xAlxN coated tool inserts used for turning in 316L stainless steel were investigated by XANES, EXAFS, EDS, and STEM. For coarse-grained fcc-structured Ti1-xAlxN coatings, with 0 \leq x \leq 0.62, the XANES spectrum changes with Al-content. XANES Ti 1s line-scans across the rake face of the worn samples reveals that TiN-enriched domains have formed during turning in Ti0.47Al0.53N and Ti0.38Al0.62N samples as a result of spinodal decomposition. The XANES spectra reveal the locations on the tool in which the most TiN-rich domains have formed, indicating which part of the tool-chip contact area that experienced the highest temperature during turning. Changes in the pre-edge features in the XANES spectra reveal that structural changes occur also in the w-TiAlN phase in fine-grained Ti0.38Al0.62N during turning. EDS shows that Cr and Fe from the steel adhere to the tool rake face during machining. Cr 1s and Fe 1s XANES show that Cr is oxidized in the end of the contact length while the adhered Fe retains in the same fcc-structure as that of the 316L stainless steel.
