description: Objective: This analysis investigated whether persons with serious mental
illnesses have longer jail detentions than other detainees and
whether they are released by different legal mechanisms. Methods: Jail
records and mental health service records from a Medicaid database
were matched for all admissions to the Philadelphia jail system in 2003.
Survival analysis techniques were used to compare length of jail stays of
persons with and without serious mental illnesses (N=24,290). Serious
mental illness was defined as a diagnosis either in the schizophrenia
spectrum (DSM-IV code 295.XX) or of a major affective disorder (DSMIV
code 296.XX) recorded in Medicaid records (2001–2003). Mechanisms
of release were also examined for those with release dates before
September 1, 2005 (N=20,573) Results: Just over 50% of the 1,457 persons
with serious mental illnesses were released from jail within 30 days
of incarceration, compared with 56% of the other detainees. Mental illness
status was not found to be a significant predictor of longer detentions.
Forty-nine percent of those with serious mental illnesses were released
from jails through unpredictable release mechanisms, such as
bail, release from court, or withdrawal of a bench warrant, whereas only
19% were released through mechanisms that had release dates that allowed
adequate time for discharge planning. Conclusions: The findings
suggest that reentry programs and other jail-based interventions for
persons with mental illnesses should ensure that they have the capacity
to rapidly identify and serve clients with shorter and more unpredictable
stays or risk not being responsive to the needs of a substantial
proportion of this population.

description: We present 850$μ$m and 450$μ$m data from the JCMT Gould Belt Survey obtained with SCUBA-2 and characterise the dust attributes of Class I, Class II and Class III disk sources in L1495. We detect 23% of the sample at both wavelengths, with the detection rate decreasing through the Classes from I--III. The median disk mask is 1.6$\times 10^{-3}$M$_{\odot}$, and only 7% of Class II sources have disk masses larger than 20 Jupiter masses. We detect a higher proportion of disks towards sources with stellar hosts of spectral type K than spectral type M. Class II disks with single stellar hosts of spectral type K have higher masses than those of spectral type M, supporting the hypothesis that higher mass stars have more massive disks. Variations in disk masses calculated at the two wavelengths suggests there may be differences in dust opacity and/or dust temperature between disks with hosts of spectral types K to those with spectral type M.

description: We utilize the CLASH (Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble) observations of 25 clusters to search for extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs). The selections are carried out in two central bands: F105W (Y105) and F125W (J125), as the flux of the central bands could be enhanced by the presence of [O III] 4959, 5007 at redshift of about 0.93-1.14 and 1.57-1.79, respectively. The multi-band observations help to constrain the equivalent widths of emission lines. Thanks to cluster lensing, we are able to identify 52 candidates down to an intrinsic limiting magnitude of 28.5 and to a rest-frame [O III] 4959,5007 equivalent width of about 3737 angstrom. Our samples include a number of EELGs at lower luminosities that are missed in other surveys, and the extremely high equivalent width can be only found in such faint galaxies. These EELGs can mimic the dropout feature similar to that of high redshift galaxies and contaminate the color-color selection of high redshift galaxies when the S/N ratio is limited or the band coverage is incomplete. We predict that the fraction of EELGs in the future high redshift galaxy selections cannot be neglected.

Year: 2006

description: OBJECTIVE: This study assessed reentry programs throughout the nation for people with mental illness who were leaving prisons or jails and developed a classification of service strategies based on practices that are emerging in the field in response to this need. METHODS: A national survey identified service strategies that assist people who are incarcerated in prisons or jail and have a mental illness reenter the community. Data were used to develop a typology of reentry service strategies. RESULTS: Fifty-eight reentry programs were identified. Program descriptions were developed for 50. Findings supported the use of a 2x2 typology of initiatives, with one factor being whether the criminal justice or mental health system initiated the program and the other being the degree of collaboration between the two systems. CONCLUSIONS: If the funding trend indicated by this survey continues, the criminal justice system will become a primary funder of treatment services for offenders with mental illness who are returning to the community. No one knows how this shift in funding will affect the provision of mental health services.
Angular momenta, magnetization, and accretion of protostellar cores

description: Building on our previous hydrodynamic study of the angular momenta of cloud cores formed during gravitational collapse of star-forming molecular gas in Kuznetsova et al., we now examine core properties assuming ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Using the same sink-patch implementation for the Athena MHD code, we characterize the statistical properties of cores, including the mass accretion rates, specific angular momenta, and alignments between the magnetic field and the spin axis of the core on the 0.1 pc scale. Our simulations, which reproduce the observed relation between magnetic field strength and gas density, show that magnetic fields can help collimate low-density flows and help seed the locations of filamentary structures. Consistent with our previous purely hydrodynamic simulations, stars (sinks) form within the heterogeneous environments of filaments, such that accretion onto cores is highly episodic leading to short-term variability but no long-term monotonic growth of the specific angular momenta. With statistical characterization of protostellar cores properties and behaviors, we aim to provide a starting point for building more realistic and self-consistent disk formation models, helping to address whether magnetic fields can prevent the development of (large) circumstellar disks in the ideal MHD limit.

description: L’opera raccoglie, in seguito al Primo Congresso Internazionale di Diritto delle Famiglie e delle Successioni “Nuovi paradigmi della filiazione”, gli scritti di autori italiani, spagnoli e latino-americani i quali, attraverso un confronto tra gli ordinamenti, riflettono a vario titolo sui nuovi paradigmi della filiazione e sulle loro implicazioni nel diritto delle famiglie e nel diritto successorio, con particolare attenzione alle rilevanti questioni di diritto internazionale privato. Attraverso un approccio sistematico e assiologico l’opera mira ad analizzare il mutato contesto familiare – dalla famiglia alle famiglie – e a valutarne le molteplici conseguenze che impongono una rilettura degli istituti tradizionali nel rispetto dei princìpi degli ordinamenti presi in considerazione. La multiparentalità, le tecniche di riproduzione assistita, l’evoluzione dei rapporti di filiazione e tutti i nuovi temi posti dall’evoluzione sociale in campo familiare, che spesso sfuggono ai confini nazionali, richiedono infatti all’interprete un bilanciamento nel caso concreto con particolare – ma non esclusivo – riferimento al miglior interesse del minore.

description: Network science have constantly been in the focus of research for the last decade, with considerable advances in the controllability of their structural. However, much less effort has been devoted to study that how to improve the controllability of complex networks. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to improve the controllability of complex networks by rewiring links regularly which transforms the network structure. Then it is demonstrated that our algorithm is very effective after numerical simulation experiment on typical network models (Erdös-Rényi and scale-free network). We find that our algorithm is mainly determined by the average degree and positive correlation of in-degree and out-degree of network and it has nothing to do with the network size. Furthermore, we analyze and discuss the correlation between controllability of complex networks and degree distribution index: power-law exponent and heterogeneity

description: The two-fold valley degeneracy in two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) (Mo,W)(S,Se)2 is suitable for "valleytronics", the storage and manupulation of information utilizing the valley degree of freedom. The conservation of luminescent photon helicity in these 2D crystal monolayers has been widely regarded as a benchmark indicator for charge carrier valley polarization. Here we perform helicity-resolved Raman scattering of the TMDC atomic layers. In drastic contrast to luminescence, the dominant first-order zone-center Raman bands, including the low energy breathing and shear modes as well as the higher energy optical phonons, are found to either maintain or completely switch the helicity of incident photons. These experimental observations, in addition to providing a useful tool for characterization of TMDC atomic layers, shed new light on the connection between photon helicity and valley polarization.
The Origins of Protostellar Core Angular Momenta

description: We present the results of a suite of numerical simulations designed to explore the origin of the angular momenta of protostellar cores. Using the hydrodynamic grid code Athena with a sink implementation, we follow the formation of protostellar cores and protostars (sinks) from the subvirial collapse of molecular clouds on larger scales to investigate the range and relative distribution of core properties. We find that the core angular momenta are relatively unaffected by large-scale rotation of the parent cloud; instead, we infer that angular momenta are mainly imparted by torques between neighboring mass concentrations and exhibit a log-normal distribution. Our current simulation results are limited to size scales ∼0.05 pc (∼104 au), but serve as first steps toward the ultimate goal of providing initial conditions for higher-resolution studies of core collapse to form protoplanetary disks.

description: We investigate heavy quark symmetries for heavy light meson-antimeson systems in a contact-range effective field theory. In the SU(3) light flavor limit, the leading order Lagrangian respecting heavy quark spin symmetry contains four independent counter-terms. Neglecting $1/m_Q$ corrections, three of these low energy constants can be determ1ined by theorizing a molecular description of the $X(3872)$ and $Z_b(10610)$ states. Thus, we can predict new hadronic molecules, in particular the isovector charmonium partners of the $Z_b(10610)$ and the $Z_b(10650)$ states. We also discuss hadron molecules composed of a heavy meson and a doubly-heavy baryon, which would be related to the heavy meson-antimeson molecules thanks to the heavy antiquark-diquark symmetry. Finally, we also study the $X(3872) \to D^0\bar D^0π^0$ decay, which is not only sensitive to the short distance part of the $X(3872)$ molecular wave function, as the $J/ψππ$ and $J/\psi3π$ $X(3872)$ decay modes are, but it is also affected by the long-distance structure of the resonance. Furthermore, this decay might provide some information on the interaction between the $D\bar D$ charm mesons.

description: Abstract: Diabetes Mellitus Type I (DM1) is an autoimmune disease, characterized by the total destruction total destruction, of the beta (β) cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. This disease can strike people at any age, but it usually develops in children or young adults. Because of the high prevalence of DM1 in the young population, as well as all the difficulties in the effective self-management in this population, with very specific characteristics, it is essential to develop therapeutic education interventions, with the aim of acquiring self-management skills. Thus, the main objective of this study is to “Identify the benefits of therapeutic nursing education interven-tions in promoting self-management of adolescents with DM1”. For this, an Integrative Literature Review was carried out, whose research was carried out through the EBSCOhost, Pubmed, Sco-pus and Web of Science platforms. Six articles were eligible. In terms of results, benefits were identified in the health of adolescents, with the use of therapeutic education interventions by nurses, among them, the control of capillary glycemia, better acceptance of the pathology, im-provement in body mass index, increased adherence to the therapeutic regime, reduction of hos-pitalizations and complications, contribution to bio-psycho-social well-being and improvement of quality of life.

description: The objective of the present study was to prepare and evaluate the floating microspheres of Diacerein. Diacerein microspheres were prepared by ionotropic gelation method using polymers such as HPMC (K 100 M), Carbopol, Ethyl cellulose and sodium alginate. Totally 12 different formulations of Diacerein were prepared by using the above polymers. The microspheres were characterized for entrapment efficiency, floating property by in vitro wash-off test and in-vitro drug release. Theformulation F9 was selected as an ideal formulation based on the in vitro release profile which shows an extended drug release of 95% upto 12 hours 0.1N HCl buffer. Surface morphology (SEM analysis) and drug-polymerinteraction studies (FT-IR analysis) were performed only for the ideal formulation, F9. The microspheres were discrete, spherical in shape and had ideal surface morphology as confirmed by SEM and FT-IR studies indicated the lack of drug-polymer interactions in the ideal formulation, F9. The in vitro release data of all microsphere formulations were plotted in various kinetic equations to understand the mechanisms and kinetics of drug release. The ideal formulation, F9 followed first order kinetics and value of "n," is calculated to be 0.7187 indicated that the drug release shows Non-Fickian diffusion.

description: Deutschland weist im Industrieländer-Vergleich eine außergewöhnliche wirtschaftliche Performance auf und zählt in diversen Wirtschaftssektoren als Vorreiter. Betrachtet man allerdings die digitale Wettbewerbsfähigkeit, so lässt sich feststellen, dass deutsche Unternehmen nur wenig in digitale Technologien investieren und im OECD-Vergleich einen der letzten Plätze belegen (vgl. Deloitte, 2017, S. 30). Speziell der Bausektor weist hierbei großen Nachholbedarf auf, wie beispielsweise eine Studie von von Both aufzeigt. Von Both (2013) definiert die Implementierung der neuen Arbeitsmethodik für das digitale Bauen, das sog. Building Information Modeling (BIM), in sieben Phasen. Während Großbritannien in der fünften Phase „der Versuchsphase“ ist und sich Korea sogar bereits in der letzten Phase „der Integrationsphase“ befindet, akzeptiert Deutschland erst die neue Arbeitsmethodik (Phase 3) und beginnt die Notwendigkeit zu realisieren (Phase 4).

description: Numerical simulations of star formation have found that a power-law mass function can develop at high masses. In a previous paper, we employed isothermal simulations that created large numbers of sinks over a large range in masses to show that the power-law exponent of the mass function, dN/d logM ∝ MΓ, asymptotically and accurately approaches Γ = -1. Simple analytic models show that such a power law can develop if the mass accretion rate Ṁ ∝ M2, as in Bondi-Hoyle accretion; however, the sink mass accretion rates in the simulations show significant departures from this relation. In this paper, we show that the expected accretion rate dependence is more closely realized provided the gravitating mass is taken to be the sum of the sink mass and the mass in the near environment. This reconciles the observed mass functions with the accretion rate dependencies, and demonstrates that power-law upper mass functions are essentially the result of gravitational focusing, a mechanism present in, for example, the competitive accretion model.

description: We report elastic neutron scattering and transport measurements on the Ni and Cr equivalently doped iron pnictide BaFe$_{2-2x}$Ni$_{x}$Cr$_{x}$As$_{2}$. Compared with the electron-doped BaFe$_{2-x}$Ni$_{x}$As$_{2}$, the long-range antiferromagnetic (AF) order in BaFe$_{2-2x}$Ni$_{x}$Cr$_{x}$As$_{2}$ is gradually suppressed with vanishing ordered moment and Néel temperature near $x= 0.20$ without the appearance of superconductivity. A detailed analysis on the transport properties of BaFe$_{2-x}$Ni$_{x}$As and BaFe$_{2-2x}$Ni$_{x}$Cr$_{x}$As$_{2}$ suggests that the non-Fermi-liquid behavior associated with the linear resistivity as a function of temperature may not correspond to the disappearance of the static AF order. From the temperature dependence of the resistivity in overdoped compounds without static AF order, we find that the transport properties are actually affected by Cr impurity scattering, which may induce a metal-to-insulator crossover in highly doped BaFe$_{1.7-y}$Ni$_{0.3}$Cr$_{y}$As$_{2}$.

description: We have analyzed the NVSS and SUMSS data at 1.4 GHz and 843 MHz for a well defined complete sample of hard X-ray AGN observed by INTEGRAL. A large number (70/79) of sources are detected in the radio band, showing a wide range of radio morphologies, from unresolved or slightly resolved cores to extended emission over several hundreds of kpc scales. The radio fluxes have been correlated with the 2-10 keV and 20-100 keV emission, revealing significant correlations with slopes consistent with those expected for radiatively efficient accreting systems. The high energy emission coming from the inner accretion regions correlates with the radio emission averaged over hundreds of kpc scales (i.e., thousands of years).

description: We revisit the reliability of metallicity estimates of high velocity clouds with the help of hydrodynamical simulations. We quantify the effect of accretion and viewing angle on metallicity estimates derived from absorption lines. Model parameters are chosen to provide strong lower limits on cloud contamination by ambient gas. Consistent with previous results, a cloud traveling through a stratified halo is contaminated by ambient material to the point that <10 per cent of its mass in neutral hydrogen consists of original cloud material. Contamination progresses nearly linearly with time, and it increases from head to tail. Therefore, metallicity estimates will depend on the evolutionary state of the cloud, and on position. While metallicities change with time by more than a factor of 10, well beyond observational uncertainties, most lines-of-sight range only within those uncertainties at any given time over all positions. Metallicity estimates vary with the cloud's inclination angle within observational uncertainties. The cloud survives the infall through the halo because ambient gas continuously condenses and cools in the cloud's wake and thus appears in the neutral phase. Therefore, the cloud observed at any fixed time is not a well-defined structure across time, since material gets constantly replaced. The thermal phases of the cloud are largely determined by the ambient pressure. Internal cloud dynamics evolve from drag gradients caused by shear instabilities, to complex patterns due to ram-pressure shielding, leading to a peloton effect, in which initially lagging gas can catch up to and even overtake the head of the cloud.

description: Inflation is nowadays a well-established paradigm consistent with all the observations. The precise nature of the inflaton is however unknown and its role could be played by any candidate able to imitate a scalar condensate in the slow-roll regime. The discovery of a fundamental scalar in the LHC provides the less speculative candidate. Could the Higgs field itself be responsible for inflation? Do we really need to advocate new physics to explain the properties of the Universe at large scales? Which is the relation between the Standard Model parameters and the inflationary observables? What happens if our vacuum becomes unstable below the scale of inflation? We present an overview of Higgs inflation trying to provide answers to the previous questions with special emphasis on the vacuum stability issue.

description: We report parallaxes and proper motions of three water maser sources in high-mass star-forming regions in the Outer Spiral Arm of the Milky Way. The observations were conducted with the Very Long Baseline Array as part of Bar and Spiral Structure Legacy Survey and double the number of such measurements in the literature. The Outer Arm has a pitch angle of 14.9 +/- 2.7 deg and a Galactocentric distance of 14.1 +/- 0.6 kpc toward the Galactic anticenter. The average motion of these sources toward the Galactic center is 10.7 +/- 2.1 km/s and we see no sign of a significant fall in the rotation curve out to 15 kpc from the Galactic center. The three-dimensional locations of these star-forming regions are consistent with a Galactic warp of several hundred parsecs from the plane.

description: We study a system of monodispersed hard rectangles of size $m \times d$, where $d\geq m$ on a two dimensional square lattice. For large enough aspect ratio, the system is known to undergo three entropy driven phase transitions with increasing activity $z$: first from disordered to nematic, second from nematic to columnar and third from columnar to sublattice phases. We study the nematic-columnar transition by developing a high-activity expansion in integer powers of $z^{-1/d}$ for the columnar phase in a model where the rectangles are allowed to orient only in one direction. By deriving the exact expression for the first $d+2$ terms in the expansion, we obtain lower bounds for the critical density and activity. For $m$, $k\gg 1$, these bounds decrease with increasing $k$ and decreasing $m$.

description: This volume contains the proceedings of the 10th International Workshop on Quantum Physics and Logic (QPL X), which was held July 17-19, 2013 at ICFO in Castelldefels (Barcelona), Spain. The goal of this workshop series is to bring together researchers working on mathematical foundations of quantum physics, quantum computing and spatio-temporal causal structures, and in particular those that use logical tools, ordered algebraic and category-theoretic structures, formal languages, semantic methods and other computer science methods for the study of physical behavior in general. Over the past few years, there has been growing activity in these foundational approaches, together with a renewed interest in the foundations of quantum theory, which complement the more mainstream research in quantum computation.
title:  The Historical Review of Sparta (2023)
Creators: name: Piras, Giorgio
name: Sassu, Rita
Publisher: name: Sapienza Università Editrice
Year: 2023

description: This issue of “The Historical Review of Sparta”, jointly promoted by the Department of Classics of Sapienza University of Rome and the Institute of Sparta, focuses on the battle of Sellasia, which occurred in the summer 222 BC and saw the clash between the Spartans led by Cleomenes III and the Achaean-Macedonian alliance guided by Antigonus III Doson. The several papers here collected address the historical incident from different and complementary perspectives, in the attempt to contextualize it in a wider framework. Hence, the articles carry out a thorough analysis of Hellenistic Sparta, by investigating the constitutional reforms implemented during the 3rd cent. BC, exploring the political (and sometimes conflictual) relations between the Laconian polis and other emerging powers in Greece and the Mediterranean basin, and discussing the changes occurred in the governmental, economic, military, educational and religious field. Furthermore, the contributions offer an in-depth study of the military strategies and tactics implemented in the battlefield, as well as an analysis on the final impact of the catastrophic defeat of Sparta on its internal societal structure and cultural system, and a reflection on the modern reception of the historical event.

Publisher: name: Sapienza Università Editrice
Year: 2022

description: The volume, jointly promoted by the Department of Classics of Sapienza University and the Institute of Sparta, intends to explore the multifaceted system of connections and interactions among ancient poleis by focusing on Sparta, which acts as an exemplary case study to understand the complex relations among Greek cities in the classical Hellenic world. The latter is indeed composed by an extended range of settlements based on specific jurisdictions, sets of laws and ethical principles, that are nevertheless connected by a common shared culture. The publication includes the Proceedings of the International Conference “International relations in Antiquity: the case of Sparta” held in Sparta in 2021 and further papers dealing with the ancient Laconian polis. The book aims to critically analyse the Spartan international network, through an open and constructive methodology, deprived of pre-arranged interpretative models. Moreover, it means to bring together scholars from different backgrounds and a variety of scientific disciplines (such as philology, epigraphy, history, archaeology, international relations) to foster a fruitful cross-sectorial dialogue, aimed at enabling a comprehensive understanding of ancient Hellas.

description: We studied the directed self-assembly of two types of complementary single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) strands [i.e., poly(dA) and poly(dT)] into more complex, organized, and percolating networks in dilute solutions and at surfaces. Understanding ssDNA self-assembly into 2D networks on surfaces is important for the use of such networks in the fabrication of well-defined nanotechnological devices, as, for instance, required in nanoelectronics or for biosensing. To control the formation of 2D networks on surfaces, it is important to know whether DNA assemblies are formed already in dilute solutions or only during the drying/immobilization process at the surface, where the concentration automatically increases. Fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy clearly shows the presence of larger DNA complexes in mixed poly(dA) and poly(dT) solutions already at very low DNA concentrations (<1 nM), that is, well below the overlap concentration. Here, we describe for the first time such supramolecular complexes in solution and how their structure depends on the ssDNA length and concentration and ionic strength. Hence, future attempts to control such networks should also focus on network precursors in solution and not only on their immobilization on surfaces.
Gas inflow and star formation near supermassive black holes: The role of nuclear activity
Creators: name: Frazer, C.C.

Publisher: name: Oxford University Press
Year: 2019

description: Numerical models of gas inflow towards a supermassive black hole (SMBH) show that star formation may occur in such an environment through the growth of a gravitationally unstable gas disc. We consider the effect of nuclear activity on such a scenario. We present the first three-dimensional grid-based radiative hydrodynamic simulations of direct collisions between infalling gas streams and a 4 × 106 M☉ SMBH, using ray-tracing to incorporate radiation consistent with an active galactic nucleus (AGN). We assume inflow masses of ≈105 M☉ and explore radiation fields of 10 per cent and 100 per cent of the Eddington luminosity (Ledd). We follow our models to the point of central gas disc formation preceding star formation and use the Toomre Q parameter (QT) to test for gravitational instability. We find that radiation pressure from UV photons inhibits inflow. Yet, for weak radiation fields, a central disc forms on time-scales similar to that of models without feedback. Average densities of >108 cm−3 limit photoheating to the disc surface allowing for QT ≈ 1. For strong radiation fields, the disc forms more gradually resulting in lower surface densities and larger QT values. Mass accretion rates in our models are consistent with 1-60 per cent of the Eddington limit, thus we conclude that it is unlikely that radiative feedback from AGN activity would inhibit circumnuclear star formation arising from a massive inflow event.
Interfacial Fermi Loops from Interfacial Symmetries

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We propose a concept of interfacial symmetries such as interfacial particle-hole symmetry and interfacial time-reversal symmetry, which appear in interfaces between two regions related to each other by particle-hole or time-reversal transformations. These symmetries result in novel dispersion of interface states. In particular for the interfacial particle-hole symmetry the gap closes along a loop ("Fermi loop") at the interface. We numerically demonstrate this for the Fu-Kane-Mele tight-binding model. We show that the Fermi loop originates from a sign change of a Pfaffian of a product between the Hamiltonian and a constant matrix.

A Coscaling Grid for Athena++
Creators: name: Habegger, R.
name: Heitsch, F.
Publisher: name: American Astronomical Society
Year: 2021

description: We present a coscaling-grid formalism and its implementation in the magnetohydrodynamics code Athena++. The formalism relies on flow symmetries in astrophysical problems involving expansion, contraction, and center-of-mass motion. The grid is evolved at the same time order as the fluid variables. The user specifies grid evolution laws, which can be independent of the fluid motion. Applying our implementation to standard hydrodynamic test cases leads to improved results and higher efficiency, compared to the fixed-grid solutions.

description: For Anosov flows obtained by suspensions of Anosov diffeomorphisms on surfaces, we show the following type of rigidity result: if a topological conjugacy between them is differentiable at a point, then the conjugacy has a smooth extension to the suspended 3-manifold. These result generalize the similar ones of Sullivan and Ferreira-Pinto for 1-dimensional expanding dynamics and also a result of Ferreira-Pinto for 2-dimensional hyperbolic dynamics.

Is HE 0436-4717 Anemic? A deep look at a bare Seyfert 1 galaxy

description: A multi-epoch, multi-instrument analysis of the Seyfert 1 galaxy HE 0436-4717 is conducted using optical to X-ray data from XMM-Newton and Swift (including the BAT). Fitting of the UV-to-X-ray spectral energy distribution shows little evidence of extinction and the X-ray spectral analysis does not confirm previous reports of deep absorption edges from OVIII. HE 0436-4717 is a "bare" Seyfert with negligible line-of-sight absorption making it ideal to study the central X-ray emitting region. Three scenarios were considered to describe the X-ray data: partial covering absorption, blurred reflection, and soft Comptonization. All three interpretations describe the 0.5-10.0 keV spectra well. Extrapolating the models to 100 keV results in poorer fits for the the partial covering model. When also considering the rapid variability during one of the XMM-Newton observations, the blurred reflection model appears to describe all the observations in the most self-consistent manner. If adopted, the blurred reflection model requires a very low iron abundance in HE 0436-4717. We consider the possibilities that this is an artifact of the fitting process, but it appears possible that it is intrinsic to the object.

description: Based on the Peregrine solution (PS) of the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation, the evolution of rational fraction pulses surrounded by zero background is investigated. These pulses display the behavior of a breather-like solitons. We study the generation and evolution of such solitons extracted, by means of the spectral-filtering method, from the PS in the model of the optical fiber with realistic values of coefficients accounting for the anomalous dispersion, Kerr nonlinearity, and higher-order effects. The results demonstrate that the breathing solitons stably propagate in the fibers. Their robustness against small random perturbations applied to the initial background is demonstrated too.
