"Let the Freaking Canning Begin": Human Waste in the Workplaces of George Saunders’s Pastoralia (2000)

description: This article suggests how Michael Thompson’s Rubbish Theory (1979), specifically the model of the life cycle of rubbish, might be applied to the dystopian workplace environments of George Saunders’s surreal and, often, dystopian collection Pastoralia (2000). Pastoralia foregrounds rubbish through depictions of live waste (rubbish employees and re-animated corpses), wasted lives, and waste disposal methods within the workplace. I focus on the short stories “Pastoralia” and “Sea Oak” to reveal the mechanisms behind the conversion of human employee to human waste both in, and out of, the workplace. I suggest how waste-theory further advances our understanding of Saunders’s fiction as the literary depictions of human waste in the workplace function as a critique of the dominant ideologies that govern American culture.

title: Degrees of contrast: Detection of latent bloodstains on fabric using ALS and the effects of washing
Creators: name: James, Matthew E.
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Blood forensics

description: Bloodstains are a useful piece of evidence for solving many crimes. The DNA analysis of bloodstains deposited on a piece of clothing can identify whose blood is on the clothing and may place a subject at the scene. In some cases, the stain’s shape, and overall pattern, can provide much more information. However, it is particularly difficult to identify bloodstains on dark clothing and clothing with patterns. Current methods to detect these stains include advanced photography techniques with Alternate Light Sources (ALS) or the use of chemicals that react to the hemoglobin and fluoresce. Photography methods are non-invasive, but there is little research on what wavelengths are the most effective. Chemicals such as Luminol, Bluestar, and Fluorescein are effective, but ultimately ruin the pattern and prevent morphology interpretation of the stain. This study explores the use of ALS to photograph bloodstains in order to provide an alternative non-invasive tool before the use of chemical detection techniques. This study examined whether blood always absorbed light in the 300nm to 900nm range and the best wavelength for observing blood on dark and or patterned fabrics. It also explored whether fabric type, fabric color, or pattern affected the ability to view blood on fabrics, if washing the fabric affected the use of ALS, and, if so, to what extent. Sixty-nine fabrics were photographed in monochrome under ambient light, and then with and without filter under 350nm - 380nm (UV), 400nm - 430nm (Violet), 430nm - 480nm (Blue), 480nm - 560nm (Green), and 800nm - 900nm (Infrared) light. Each photograph was bracketed to ensure the best exposure and contrast between the stain and fabric. In total, 33 photographs were taken for each fabric after each wash cycle. Contrast was measured between the bloodstain and the fabric using ImageJ software to measure the effectiveness of each wavelength. Results indicated photography with ALS was a viable method for blood detection on fabrics and should be used prior to chemical means. Further, infrared, followed by violet light with no filter, were the most effective light sources for viewing bloodstains on dark fabrics without the use of chemicals.
Heterocosms of Machinic Desire: Philip Reeve’s Mortal Engines Quartet as Propulsive Dystopia

subject: FOS: Languages and literature

description: Dystopian literature directed at teenage audiences has attracted much attention. Early twenty-first century global society and literature are pervaded by the sense that, to quote Philip Reeve, “the worst is yet to come.” Reeve’s Mortal Engines Quartet addresses precisely such concerns. In my study, I focus upon the predatory mobile cities represented in the novels as constituting independent self-organising agents of deterritorialisation. Inverting Alfredo Bonanno’s idea of “propulsive utopia,” I propose a reading of the Mortal Engines Quartet as a propulsive dystopia already in the process of enactment. A specifically posthumanist reading would focus upon the nonhuman desires embodied by cities and cyborgs alike. “Traction Cities,” far from encapsulating evolutionary dead ends, actually represent the possibility of a completely deterritorialised subjectivity, an “asignifying faciality” to use Félix Guattari’s expression. These monsters of globalisation represent a line of flight we ourselves may follow, leading to an affirmation of asubjectivity.

description: The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan catabolism in eukaryotes has long been known to be a source of the NAD precursor molecule quinolinic acid as well as immunomodulatory and neuroactive molecules which have been implicated in a wide variety of metabolic disorders and pathologies. Until fairly recently, the kynurenine pathway as it exists in its quinolinate producing role in eukaryotes was thought to be absent in prokaryotes. With the discovery of bacterial genes associated with some of the major enzymes in the pathway in several bacterial species, a “new” source of potential therapeutic targets was revealed. The complete function of the kynurenine pathway in bacteria is poorly understood due to its fairly recent discovery and resultant lack of mechanistic and structural data regarding its constituent enzymes. In this work, the second enzyme of the kynurenine pathway, kynurenine formamidase (EC 3.5.1.9), was cloned from the genome of Bacillus cereus into the pET100/D-TOPO expression vector, expressed in Escherichia coli, purified via metal affinity chromatography, and assayed in order to determine basic kinetic and mechanistic information. While determining the kinetic parameters for the enzyme and comparing them to those found in the literature, the behavior of the enzyme was found to deviate in some cases from the published values. These discrepancies have been noted and will serve as the basis for further study of the enzyme’s structure and mechanism.

description: This paper critiques whether H. P. Lovecraft’s Old Weird standards remain relevant to the ways in which women writing the New Weird resist and/or transform the Lovecraftian weird tale ideal. Lovecraft explains that there must be particular attention taken in order to achieve the great desideratum of Weird Fiction: Lovecraftian aura of cosmic horror achieves the strange reality of the unreal. This elevation of Lovecraft has produced a scholarship that tends to discuss an Old canon exclusively authored by men, silencing the work of women writers within the genre, and sidelining women’s dystopias as examples of masculine authority and fear. The aim of this discussion is to identify women’s grotesque bodies within the New as depicted by Angela Carter’s The Infernal Desire Machines of Doctor Hoffman (1972). Through this, I aim to reveal how women writers are rewriting Old phallogocentrism in a way that achieves generating a critical and creative feminist dystopia.

Statistics of pre-localized states in disordered conductors

Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The distribution function of local amplitudes of single-particle states in disordered conductors is calculated on the basis of the supersymmetric $σ$-model approach using a saddle-point solution of its reduced version. Although the distribution of relatively small amplitudes can be approximated by the universal Porter-Thomas formulae known from the random matrix theory, the statistics of large amplitudes is strongly modified by localization effects. In particular, we find a multifractal behavior of eigenstates in 2D conductors which follows from the non-integer power-law scaling for the inverse participation numbers (IPN) with the size of the system. This result is valid for all fundamental symmetry classes (unitary, orthogonal and symplectic). The multifractality is due to the existence of pre-localized states which are characterized by power-law envelopes of wave functions, $|ψ_t(r)|^2\propto r^{-2μ}$, $μ<1$. The pre-localized states in short quasi-1D wires have the power-law tails $|ψ(x)|^2\propto x^{-2}$, too, although their IPN's indicate no fractal behavior. The distribution function of the largest-amplitude fluctuations of wave functions in 2D and 3D conductors has logarithmically-normal asymptotics.

description: This thesis analyzes the theoretical bases, argumentations, logical developments of conspiracy theory from epistemological, politically-oriented, cultural and critical approaches. The majority of scholarly literature considers conspiracy theory as an irrational conception that is irrelevant or even contrary to the Enlightenment rationality, but this research finds the opposite. After discussing conspiracy theory from different aspects, whether in the theoretical or practical levels, this thesis concludes that the theoretical flaws of conspiracy theory are attributed to inaccurate premises and assumptions lie at the heart of the Enlightenment project itself. What pushes conspiracy theory into the margin of Enlightenment is not its lack of rationality but, rather, its contradictory orientation towards reasonability understood as the ability to compromise with other rational parties to reach an overlapping consensus.

Whodunit? Determining the source and eruptive characteristics of unidentified volcanic eruptions from ice and sediment core archives

description: The most complete records of explosive volcanism from the last 100,000 years are preserved in polar ice cores as deposits of sulfate aerosol and microscopic ash (tephra). These records are essential for reconstructing the history of past eruptions, including their stratospheric sulfur loading, as well as understanding the climatic impact of eruptions. However, few of these deposits have been linked with volcanic sources, leading to assumptions of eruptive source latitude, plume height and stratospheric sulfur loading, which are all essential for interpreting the climate forcing potential of eruptions. A fundamental limitation preventing the correlation of ice core volcanic deposits to eruptive sources is the difficulty of geochemically characterising extremely fine-grained (<10 μm) tephra with conventional analytical methods. This thesis provides a thorough assessment and recommended workflow for analysing <10 μm tephra, increasing potential for characterising cryptotephra from distant eruptions in ice. These tephra method developments are then used alongside sulfur isotope analysis to improve source attributions of major Common Era eruptions recorded in Greenland ice during the 7th century. This allows testing of previous source latitude assumptions for eruptions associated with large climate anomalies and contributes to ongoing efforts to understand climate sensitivity to extra-tropical versus tropical eruptions. Finally, the identification of Atitlán Los Chocoyos supereruption tephra in both Greenland and Antarctic ice ~79,500 years ago suggests even volcanic stratospheric sulfate injection several times greater than any Common Era eruption does not have a long-term (greater than decadal) impact on climate. Grainsize analysis of Los Chocoyos ash in marine sediment cores provides further insights into the physical characteristics of the supereruption, suggesting mechanisms that accelerate fine ash and sulfate fallout from the atmosphere may limit stratospheric sulfur loading. By better constraining source and stratospheric sulfate estimates for both major eruptions of the Common Era and one of the largest supereruptions of the last 100,000 years, this thesis contributes to ongoing efforts to understand the history and global impacts of explosive volcanism.

description: Activation of the atrial natriuretic signaling pathway is intrinsic to the pathological responses associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases that stress the heart, especially those involved in sustained cardiac pressure overload which induces hypertrophy and the pathological remodeling that frequently leads to heart failure. We identify transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1, as a regulated molecular component, and therapeutic target of this signaling system. Data show that TRPV1 is a physical component of the natriuretic peptide A, cGMP, PKG signaling complex, interacting with the Natriuretic Peptide Receptor 1 (NPR1), and upon binding its ligand, Natriuretic Peptide A (NPPA, ANP) TRPV1 activation is subsequently suppressed through production of cGMP and PKG mediated phosphorylation of the TRPV1 channel. Further, inhibition of TRPV1, with orally delivered drugs, suppresses chamber and myocyte hypertrophy, and can longitudinally improve in vivo heart function in mice exposed to chronic pressure overload induced by transverse aortic constriction, reversing pre-established hypertrophy induced by pressure load while restoring chamber function. TRPV1 is a physical and regulated component of the natriuretic peptide signaling system, and TRPV1 inhibition may provide a new treatment strategy for treating, and reversing the loss of function associated with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.

description: Solvent-mediated interactions emerge from complex mechanisms that depend on the solute structure, its wetting properties and the nature of the liquid. While numerous studies have focused on the two first influences, here, we compare results from water and Lennard-Jones liquid in order to reveal to what extent solvent-mediated interactions are universal with respect to the nature of the liquid. Besides the influence of the liquid, results were obtained with classical density functional theory and brute-force molecular dynamics simulations which allows us to contrast these two numerical techniques.

description: Hierarchical spatio-temporal models have been developed to model complex datasets exhibiting spatio-temporal (ST) autocorrelation; however, many of these models are purely descriptive and do not explicitly model the underlying dynamic processes. Animal movement or general movement behaviors are examples of such dynamic processes; that is, animals, or agents, move from one place to another over time, and their migration behavior can change with time and as well as their current (and past) locations. The motivating example for this thesis aims to model the spatio-temporal movement of the Eurasian collared-dove within the continental United States from 2001-2010. Existing studies have modeled animal movement using a reaction-diffusion equation or other systems of differential equation. Recently, dynamic spatio-temporal models (DSTMs) have incorporated these physical processes into a Bayesian hierarchical modeling framework. While DSTMs are extremely flexible, they can be computationally costly to fit and do not scale well to high-dimensional observations. In this thesis, I propose a computationally-efficient method to fit DSTMs to large spacetime count-valued datasets. The proposed scalable DSTM utilizes spatial basis functions to summarize the high-dimensional data as well as a spatial interpolator to assimilate observations at irregularly-spaced locations. I demonstrate the approach on simulated examples as well as a real-world dataset that tracks the prevalence of the Eurasian collared dove. Through a comparative analysis, the proposed approach is evaluated against a competing method with respect to goodness-of-fit and uncertainty quantification. In addition, I compare the model-fitting walltimes to assess the associated computational costs. The thesis concludes with a summary of the main contributions, discussion of key limitations, and directions for future research.

description: This thesis is a culmination of the work I have done in my three years of this program. The first section is a complete chapbook, titled Barely Visible Inner Constructions. This book is an exploration of desire and the body, specifically through the lens of luxury industries and my relationship with my mother, who introduced me to the world of fashion. Many of the poems utilize the sapphic stanza in order to frame the desire present as something more closely tied to queerness and femininity. Others use a dropped line form that I began as a take off on the sapphic stanza, using what would have been the shorter, 5 syllable line in the original as a moment for a clearer interiority and image. Section two is a collection of poems more pointedly about desire. The final section collects many of my poems that are in conversation with other art, especially film.

description: The conceptual problems in quantum mechanics -- related to the collapse of the wave function, the particle-wave duality, the meaning of measurement -- arise from the need to ascribe particle character to the wave function. As will be shown, all these problems dissolve when working instead with quantum fields, which have both wave and particle character. Otherwise the predictions of quantum physics, including Bell's inequalities, coincide with those of the standard treatments. The transfer of the results of the quantum measurement to the classical realm is also discussed.

description: We present a single-dish mapping algorithm with a number of advantages over traditional techniques. (1) Our algorithm makes use of weighted modeling, instead of weighted averaging, to interpolate between signal measurements. This smooths the data, but without blurring the data beyond instrumental resolution. Techniques that rely on weighted averaging blur point sources sometimes as much as 40%. (2) Our algorithm makes use of local, instead of global, modeling to separate astronomical signal from instrumental and/or environmental signal drift along the telescope's scans. Other techniques, such as basket weaving, model this drift with simple functional forms (linear, quadratic, etc.) across the entirety of scans, limiting their ability to remove such contaminants. (3) Our algorithm makes use of a similar, local modeling technique to separate astronomical signal from radio-frequency interference (RFI), even if only continuum data are available. (4) Unlike other techniques, our algorithm does not require data to be collected on a rectangular grid or regridded before processing. (5) Data from any number of observations, overlapping or not, may be appended and processed together. (6) Any pixel density may be selected for the final image. We present our algorithm, and evaluate it using both simulated and real data. We are integrating it into the image-processing library of the Skynet Robotic Telescope Network, which includes optical telescopes spanning four continents, and now also Green Bank Observatory's 20-meter diameter radio telescope in West Virginia. Skynet serves hundreds of professional users, and additionally tens of thousands of students, of all ages. Default data products are generated on the fly, but will soon be customizable after the fact.

description: This short note provides a quick introduction to relative canonical resolutions of curves on rational normal scrolls. We present our Macaulay2-package which computes the relative canonical resolution associated to a curve and a pencil of divisors. Most of our experimental data can be found on a dedicated webpage. We end with a list of conjectural shapes of relative canonical resolutions. In particular, for curves of genus $g=n\cdot k +1$ and pencils of degree $k$ for $n\ge 1$, we conjecture that the syzygy divisors on the Hurwitz space $\mathscr{H}_{g,k}$ constructed by Deopurkar and Patel all have the same support.

Search for Susy with Missing Transverse Energy and Jets at CDF
Creators: name: Haas, Richard
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Events with signatures involving large missing transverse energy (MET) are among the quintessential search modes for R-parity conserving supersymmetry. CDF has conducted two recent analyses for supersymmetry which use MET and jets. The MET and monojet signature is employed to determine process independent limits for the production of new physics beyond the Standard Model and then applied to models of spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry to determine limits on the supersymmetry breaking parameter and the gravitino mass. Direct searches for scalar top and scalar bottom quarks within the framework of supersymmetric models are performed using a signature of MET and two heavy flavor jets. Since the data is found to be consistent with Standard Model expectations, limits are determined in the mass planes $m (\tildeχ_{1}^{0}) - m (\tilde{t}_{1})$ and $m (\tildeχ_{1}^{0}) - m (\tilde{b}_{1})$.

description: This document is the complete list of sources for an article we published in American Education Research Association's annual publication of the Review of Research in Education. The article reviews education research influenced by posthumanist philosophies, which we defined broadly.  We spent over 3 years working on the review, ultimately reviewing over 300 articles, book chapters, and books.

Despite the editors' generosity with word allowance, we could neither cite all of these manuscripts in the text of the article nor include all the texts in the published bibliography. Therefore, we included in the publication a link to this website that provides a comprehenisive bibliography. We plan to periodically update it for at least a couple of years after the publication with new citations that fit the theme. We hope it will be of use to scholars influenced by and adding to this literature.

description: Activation of the atrial natriuretic signaling pathway is intrinsic to the pathological responses associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases that stress the heart, especially those involved in sustained cardiac pressure overload which induces hypertrophy and the pathological remodeling that frequently leads to heart failure. We identify transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1, as a regulated molecular component, and therapeutic target of this signaling system. Data show that TRPV1 is a physical component of the natriuretic peptide A, cGMP, PKG signaling complex, interacting with the Natriuretic Peptide Receptor 1 (NPR1), and upon binding its ligand, Natriuretic Peptide A (NPPA, ANP) TRPV1 activation is subsequently suppressed through production of cGMP and PKG mediated phosphorylation of the TRPV1 channel. Further, inhibition of TRPV1, with orally delivered drugs, suppresses chamber and myocyte hypertrophy, and can longitudinally improve in vivo heart function in mice exposed to chronic pressure overload induced by transverse aortic constriction, reversing pre-established hypertrophy induced by pressure load while restoring chamber function. TRPV1 is a physical and regulated component of the natriuretic peptide signaling system, and TRPV1 inhibition may provide a new treatment strategy for treating, and reversing the loss of function associated with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.
The NNLO QCD analysis of the CCFR data for xF_3: is there still the room for the twist-4 terms?

description: The results of the more detailed NNLO QCD analysis of the CCFR data for $xF_3$ SF are presented. The factorization scale uncertainties are analysed. The NNLO results for $alpha_s(M_Z)$ and twist-4 contributions are obtained. Despite the fact that the amplitude of the $x$-shape of the twist-4 factor is consequently decreasing at the NLO and NNLO, our new QCD analysis seems to reveal the remaining twist-4 structure at the NNLO level. The definite N$^3$LO uncertainties are fixed using the [0/2] Padé resummation technique.

Theory of the critical state of low-dimensional spin glass

description: We analyse the critical region of finite-($d$)-dimensional Ising spin glass, in particular the limit of $d$ closely above the lower critical dimension $d_\ell$. At criticality the thermally active degrees of freedom are surfaces (of width zero) enclosing clusters of spins that may reverse with respect to their environment. The surfaces are organised in finite interacting structures. These may be called {\em protodroplets}\/, since in the off-critical limit they reduce to the Fisher and Huse droplets. This picture provides an explanation for the phenomenon of critical chaos discovered earlier. It also implies that the spin-spin and energy-energy correlation functions are multifractal and we present scaling laws that describe them. Several of our results should be verifiable in Monte Carlo studies at finite temperature in $d=3$.

A neuromorphic systems approach to in-memory computing with non-ideal memristive devices: From mitigation to exploitation

description: Memristive devices represent a promising technology for building neuromorphic electronic systems. In addition to their compactness and non-volatility features, they are characterized by computationally relevant physical properties, such as state-dependence, non-linear conductance changes, and intrinsic variability in both their switching threshold and conductance values, that make them ideal devices for emulating the bio-physics of real synapses. In this paper we present a spiking neural network architecture that supports the use of memristive devices as synaptic elements, and propose mixed-signal analog-digital interfacing circuits which mitigate the effect of variability in their conductance values and exploit their variability in the switching threshold, for implementing stochastic learning. The effect of device variability is mitigated by using pairs of memristive devices configured in a complementary push-pull mechanism and interfaced to a current-mode normalizer circuit. The stochastic learning mechanism is obtained by mapping the desired change in synaptic weight into a corresponding switching probability that is derived from the intrinsic stochastic behavior of memristive devices. We demonstrate the features of the CMOS circuits and apply the architecture proposed to a standard neural network hand-written digit classification benchmark based on the MNIST data-set. We evaluate the performance of the approach proposed on this benchmark using behavioral-level spiking neural network simulation, showing both the effect of the reduction in conductance variability produced by the current-mode normalizer circuit, and the increase in performance as a function of the number of memristive devices used in each synapse.
