Conus nobilis var. vincoomnes lichtenstein, 1794

description: Conus nobilis var. vincoomnes Lichtenstein, 1794
 Conus nobilis Linnaeus, 1758, is a well-known species from the Indian Ocean. The description of C. nobilis vincoomnes Lichtenstein, 1794, fits exactly C. nobilis victor Broderip, 1842 (e.g., Abbott & Dance, 1983: 247; Röckel et al. 1995: pl. 36, fig. 8), characterized by the two areas with multiple bands consisting of tightly spaced dark brown markings. Both, Lichtenstein (1794) and Broderip (1842) compare their species to C. nobilis and C. ammiralis, further strengthening the identity of the two specific names, although no dimensions were given by Lichtenstein. Lichtenstein noted that this species is extremely rare with the three exclamation marks; C. nobilis victor is still today a rare shell from Indonesia. The name vincoomnes had never been used in the literature, hence, was designated by Geiger (2003) a nomen oblitum, and C. nobilis victor is a nomen protectum. The subspecies is currently accepted as valid in WoRMS.
 Note the similarity in the species names (victor = the winner; vincoomnes = I win all), which may prompt some speculation as to the origin of Broderip’s material. Broderip (1842) had two specimens at hand, one from H. Cuming, the other from the Reverend A. Harford, whereas Lichtenstein based his description on a single specimen. The two Broderip specimens had equal standing as syntypes. Finet & Caillez (1993) inadvertently designated a lectotype by labelling the specimen shown in their fig. 5 as “ Holotype BMNH 1992085”; the wherabouts of the second specimen is not known. The name given by Broderip (1842) may also be seen in the context of naming a small, rare, and finely patterned species akin to C. cedonulli Linnaeus, 1758. The latter species epithet signifies “I cede to none” or, as Dance (1966) phrased it, “second to none”. Accordingly, C. victor and C. vincoomnes could have been named independently in that tradition, though there is no indication to such an intent in either of the original descriptions.

description: Planar light-emitting diodes (LEDs) fabricated within a single high-mobility quantum well are demonstrated. Our approach leads to a dramatic reduction of radiative lifetime and junction area with respect to conventional vertical LEDs, promising very high-frequency device operation. Devices were fabricated by UV lithography and wet chemical etching starting from p-type modulation-doped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Electrical and optical measurements from room temperature down to 1.8 K show high spectral purity and high external efficiency. Time-resolved measurements yielded extremely short recombination times of the order of 50 ps, demonstrating the relevance of the present scheme for high-frequency device applications in the GHz range.

description: Menstruation is associated with social stigma, however, over the past decade menstrual hygiene management (MHM) has received increased attention as a global concern. MHM emerged from the water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) sector and has played an influential role in framing the discourse around menstruation. This research looks at the environment that led to the WASH sector owning the term MHM and how that influences the narrative today. Through a discourse analysis of documents of influential organizations working on MHM, this thesis explores the narratives being put forth in connection to ideas of concealment, bodily management, and hygiene with the aim to uncover the narrative of menstruation and whether or not it reinforces or lifts the menstrual stigma.

description: This paper reviews the geotechnical and hydrological closure activities undertaken at the tailings facilities of this historic mine. The selection of the appropriate design criteria was based on an assessment of the potential consequence of failure. Design and construction work included: water diversion channels and spillways; and, an ARD storage pond. This paper summarizes the results from the geotechnical and water management programs for the last 10 years of operations and the first 2 years of closure. Predictions regarding the potential effects of the closure activities on water levels and seepage rates from the tailings facilities were made, indicating that phreatic water levels within the tailings would drop and seepage rates would be reduced. Performance and operation of the new ARD storage pond is discussed. This pond is used to enable campaign operation of the water treatment plant, while accommodating seasonal and continuous collection of ARD water from the former mine site.

description: We investigate the quantum fluctuations of an inflaton field in a two-field model of one-bubble open inflation. One of the inflatons is assumed to be responsible for the first false vacuum stage of inflation and the other is assumed to be responsible for the second slow-roll stage of inflation. The mass of the second inflaton is assumed to be negligible throughout the whole era of inflation. We find the super-curvature fluctuations are enhanced by the factor given by the ratio of the Hubble constants at false vacuum and true vacuum. This gives a strong constraint on a class of open inflation models. In particular, this implies the simplest two-field model proposed by Linde and Mezhlumian is in trouble.

description: The purpose of this study was to identify factors which affect rural women's participation in rice cultivation (RWPRC) in Mazandaran Province, Iran. The population of this research consisted of all rural women in Mazandaran Province, Iran. By using a multi-stage random sampling, 300 rural women were selected as statistical sample. The research instrument was a structured questionnaire including some closeended questions whose validity and reliability were confirmed by a panel of expert and through a Cranach’s alpha test (α= 0.86), respectively. The descriptive results indicated that RWPRC was close to a moderate level. Furthermore, it was shown that the main reasons for rural women's participating in rice cultivation were helping family economy, obtaining extra income, and gaining production surplus, in the order of importance. In addition, these results illustrated the highest RWPRCs were in selecting seed, transplanting and preparing pregerminated seedling storage, respectively. Moreover, the findings showed significant relationships between RWPRC and some of its individual and professional characteristics. Finally, the results of the multivariate regression analysis revealed that 42.9 % of variability in RWPRC stems from household income, family size, and land size under rice cultivation. Finally, it is recommended for extension organizations to give attention to the role of gender in agriculture for better extension planning.

description: We study the linear stability of a circular orbit in a two-electron atom, with the inclusion of retardation and self-interaction effects. We calculate all the eigenvalues of the linear stability of the circular orbit, expanded up to third order in (v/c). We discuss how the linear stability results can be used to construct a resonant normal form constant of motion, which is important for the short time stability of the orbits (e.g. emission of sharp spectral lines). We calculate the magnitudes related to some of those orbits and compare to the quantum atomic results.

description: Following Superstorm Sandy, the City and the State of New York initiated two separate, federally funded, recovery programs for residents along the East Shore of Staten Island. New York State offered a retreat style buyout program for three small neighborhoods which would require the purchased land to remain open space in perpetuity. The City’s program, conversely, rehabilitates, reconstructs, or acquires properties with the goal of building back more resilient housing. This thesis aims to understand why both approaches were being offered to residents along the East Shore and what impact this might have on the community’s resilience to future flood events. Through an examination of the history of the East Shore, as well as the post-Sandy planning processes and recovery programs I uncovered a complex set of interactions between various levels of government and between residents and government. Through archival research and interviews I attempt to unpack this complex web of interactions. Additionally, through a site visit I examine what this complicated recovery process has meant for the character of the three neighborhoods targeted for buyout and the choices the city now faces about the area’s future. In the conclusion section I set out potential recommendations for the future resiliency of New York City, as well as best practices for future post-disaster recovery efforts in New York and other cities, especially as it relates to the pursuit of retreat as a climate adaptation strategy.

description: Background: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) are an urgent public health threat in the United States.
Objective: Describe the clinical and molecular epidemiology of CRE in a multicenter pediatric cohort.
Methods: CRACKLE-1 and CRACKLE-2 are prospective cohort studies with consecutive enrollment of hospitalized patients with CRE infection or colonization between 24 December 2011 and 31 August 2017. Patients younger than age 18 years and enrolled in the CRACKLE studies were included in this analysis. Clinical data were obtained from the electronic health record. Carbapenemase genes were detected using polymerase chain reaction and whole-genome sequencing.
Results: Fifty-one children were identified at 18 healthcare system study sites representing all U.S. census regions. The median age was 8 months, with 67% younger than age 2 years. Median number of days from admission to culture collection was 11. Seventy-three percent of patients had required intensive care and 41% had a history of mechanical ventilation. More than half of children had no documented comorbidities (Q1, Q3 0, 2). Sixty-seven percent previously received antibiotics during their hospitalization. The most common species isolated were Enterobacter species (41%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (27%), and Escherichia coli (20%). Carbapenemase genes were detected in 29% of isolates tested, which was lower than previously described in adults from this cohort (61%). Thirty-four patients were empirically treated on the date of culture collection, but only 6 received an antibiotic to which the CRE isolate was confirmed susceptible in vitro. Thirty-day mortality was 13.7%.
Conclusions: CRE infection or colonization in U.S. children was geographically widespread, predominantly affected children younger than age 2 years, associated with significant mortality, and less commonly caused by carbapenemase-producing strains than in adults.
Moving Past Conflict: How Locomotion Facilitates Reconciliation in Humans and Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)

subject: Animal behavior

description: Social animals must overcome conflicts, an inherent and often detrimental consequence of gregarious life. One strategy for doing so is reconciliation, or post-conflict affiliation between former opponents. In humans and other primates, this behavior is often assumed to require a switch between opposing motivational states (e.g., anti- to pro-social). In this thesis, I argue that reconciliation is facilitated by an underlying individual tendency for movement and change between states, a motivation known as locomotion. Section one of this thesis uses a longitudinal, observational approach to establish stable individual differences in chimpanzee reconciliation while controlling for numerous relational factors known to influence the occurrence of this behavior. These individual differences are then related to several behavioral proxies of locomotion motivation. Section two of this thesis explores the relation between locomotion and conflict resolution in humans, using a range of methodological approaches and measures, including hypothetical scenarios, experimental inductions, essay studies, narrative reflections, and dyadic interactions. I conclude by emphasizing the importance of going beyond relational and other instrumental approaches to conflict resolution in order to understand more fundamental individual motivations underlying reconciliation behavior. If an individual motive to effect change and therefore resolve conflict in turn impacts one’s social relationships, it has even broader significance. Across the primate order, the influence and importance of such relationships suggest the potential role of reconciliatory motivations when it comes to individual survival, health, and overall well-being.

description: The effect of a thermal environment on electron (or hole) transfer through molecular bridges and on the electron conduction properties of such bridges is studied. Our steady state formalism based on an extension of the Redfield theory (D. Segal et al, J. Phys. Chem. B 104 (2000) 3817; Chem. Phys. 268 (2001) 315) is extended in two ways: First, a better description of the weak coupling limit, which accounts for the asymmetry of the energy dependence of the quasi-elastic component of the transmission is employed. Secondly, for strong coupling to the thermal bath the small polaron transformation is employed prior to the Redfield expansion. It is shown that the thermal coupling is mainly characterized by two physical parameters: The reorganization energy that measures the coupling strength and the correlation time (or its inverse - the spectral width) of the thermal bath. Implications for the observed dependence of the bridge-length dependence of the transmissions are discussed. It is argued that in the intermediate regime between tunneling behavior and site-to-site thermally induced hopping, the transport properties may depend on the interplay between the local relaxation rate and the transmission dynamics.

description: Colombia’s conflict started in 1964 and spanned over 50 years, until former President Juan Manuel Santos signed a peace deal that formally ended the conflict between the FARC-EP and the Colombian government. In total, different groups in the conflict recruited close to 17,000 children, a violation of their human rights under international human rights law. By conducting interviews with child protection experts and reviewing the ICBF’s policies on race and gender, this study seeks to understand the reintegration experiences of demobilized Afro-Colombian girls, how the ICBF takes into account race and gender in the design of their programs, and whether or not Colombia’s reintegration program adequately addresses the needs of demobilized Afro-Colombian girls. The findings of this study show that reintegration programs fail to adequately address their needs. Afro-Colombian girls have a distinct set of needs that reintegration programs must take into account when designing their programs, which include unique power relations within the armed groups, lack of basic services prior to their involvement with the armed groups as well as after their demobilization, and the violence still present in their communities upon their return. This study also found that the ICBF’s understanding of race and gender in the design of their programs is explicit and thorough, outlining the importance of incorporating race and gender. However, the findings show that the implementation of such mechanisms fall short of being effective and attainable. This study’s findings point to the need to be more inclusive in the design of the reintegration programs, and to take into account dangers present in the communities where Afro-Colombian girls will be returning to.

description: Matter fields are supertranslated upon crossing a shock wave, which leads to entanglement of the quantum vacuum between the two regions on either side of the shock wave. We probe this entanglement for a scalar field in a planar shock wave background by computing the Bogoliubov transformation between the inertial and uniformly accelerated observer. The resulting Bogoliubov coefficients are shown to reproduce the standard Unruh effect without dependence on the form factor of the shock wave. In contrast, excited states lead to observables that depend upon the form factor. In the context of nonspherical gravitational collapse, we comment that the angular dependence of the limiting advanced time leads to similar supertranslation effects that do not affect the Hawking spectrum but do affect scattering amplitudes.

Using multispectral remote sensing to monitor reclamation at Highland Valley Copper

Year: 2009

description: The use of airborne remote sensing is being investigated to monitor reclamation at Highland Valley Copper, a large open pit copper and molybdenum mine in the southern interior of British Columbia. The establishment of a self-sustaining vegetative cover is a central component of the mine’s reclamation plan. The present vegetation-monitoring program represents a significant commitment of both financial and manpower resources, but only addresses a small portion of the reclaimed area each year. The mine is attempting to use remote sensing to increase the efficiency and expand the area monitored each year. Airborne multispectral imagery has been acquired for the last three summers, and the results compared to the routine monitoring program. Significant progress has been made. During the first season, strong spectral separation was found between grasses and legumes with further separation due to density of vegetation. During 2002, directed ground truthing was used to associate recognisable spectral signatures with characteristic vegetation types, and the preliminary analysis of aquatic vegetation demonstrated the potential for species separation. In 2003, in situ and aerial data were acquired at a similar time, and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)/Biomass relationship was very good (r2=0.81). Further analysis of existing and new data will be the focus for 2004.

description: We propose a framework for optimization of the chemical composition of multinary compounds with the aid of machine learning. The scheme is based on first-principles calculation using the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method and the coherent potential approximation (KKR-CPA). We introduce a method for integrating datasets to reduce systematic errors in a dataset, where the data are corrected using a smaller and more accurate dataset. We apply this method to values of the formation energy calculated by KKR-CPA for nonstoichiometric systems to improve them using a small dataset for stoichiometric systems obtained by the projector-augmented-wave (PAW) method. We apply our framework to optimization of $R$Fe$_{12}$-type magnet compounds (R$_{1-α}$Z$_α$)(Fe$_{1-β}$Co$_β$)$_{12-γ}$Ti$_γ$, and benchmark the efficiency in determination of the optimal choice of elements (R and Z) and ratio ($α$, $β$ and $γ$) with respect to magnetization, Curie temperature and formation energy. We find that the optimization efficiency depends on descriptors significantly. The variable $β$, $γ$ and the number of electrons from the R and Z elements per cell are important in improving the efficiency. When the descriptor is appropriately chosen, the Bayesian optimization becomes much more efficient than random sampling.

description: Children playing on playgrounds is a common sight, one most people have witnessed and participated in. While playground spaces are scattered throughout the United States as places for children to explore, they often reflect adult notions of childhood and come in standardized forms, which often neglect the interests of children. Situated at the nexus of critical childhoods and spatial theories, this study argues that children’s playground spaces are valuable sites of study, as are the experiences of children utilizing them. While easy to ignore the desires of very young children, or brush them off as unimportant or uninformed, this study emphasizes the value of seeing, hearing, and prioritizing the experiences of two-year old’s as they navigate playground spaces. Utilizing researcher and child-driven methods, children’s verbal and nonverbal modes of communication were valued and reflected in the findings. Children’s movements through playground spaces were reflective of their sensory and embodied ways of being, as well as their connection with the material world. This work proposes that more attention be paid to children’s actual lived experiences in playground spaces and that this be considered when designing and constructing these spaces.

description: We show that an energy gap is induced in graphene by light-matter coupling to a circularly polarized photon mode in a cavity. Using many-body perturbation theory we compute the electronic spectra which exhibit photon-dressed sidebands akin to Floquet sidebands for laser-driven materials. In contrast with Floquet topological insulators, in which a strictly quantized Hall response is induced by light only for off-resonant driving in the high-frequency limit, the photon-dressed Dirac fermions in the cavity show a quantized Hall response characterized by an integer Chern number. Specifically for graphene we predict that a Hall conductance of $2 e^2/h$ can be induced in the low-temperature limit.

description: While migration is a basic element of population dynamics in most societies, in Iran, rural-urban migration is a particular concern of both social scientists and policy makers. Rural- urban migration accounts for over half of the growth of most Iranian cities. On the other hand, this movement is often cited as having negative effects on rural area, including a shortage of supply of agricultural labor. It is becoming common to blame rural-urban migration among young people on factors such as education and employment opportunities. This research examines the psychological factors influencing the intentions and decisions of rural young people aiming to migrate to Khuzestan Province. This study used the extend theory of planned behaviour. A questionnaire was developed using the latent variables of attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioural control, behavioural intention, community satisfaction, and youth personal characteristics. The face and content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by a panel of experts. The questionnaire’s internal reliability was investigated using the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. All scales indicated a good-toexcellent reliability index (0.75–0.85). Samples of young people were identified through a multi-stage, stratified random sampling strategy from two groups (young people who are ‘well educated’ and those who were not). A total of 163 valid questionnaires were analyzed. Our results showed that adding community satisfaction as additional construct to the original theory of planned behavior could significantly increase the explanatory power of the basic model. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that attitude, perceived behaviour control, as well as community satisfaction can predict 51.3% of variances in migration intentions.

description: Just as knots and links can be algebraically described as certain morphisms in the category of tangles in 3 dimensions, compact surfaces smoothly embedded in R^4 can be described as certain 2-morphisms in the 2-category of `2-tangles in 4 dimensions'. Using the work of Carter, Rieger and Saito, we prove that this 2-category is the `free semistrict braided monoidal 2-category with duals on one unframed self-dual object'. By this universal property, any unframed self-dual object in a braided monoidal 2-category with duals determines an invariant of 2-tangles in 4 dimensions.

description: Additional file 4. Subcellular zones. Based on the lateral distance from the nucleus, subcellular zones were defined inside the cells. The juxtanuclear zone covers the area of nuclei and 1 µm around. The peripheral zone of the cells was delineated between 1 and 2 µm distance from the nucleus. The third zone covered mainly the projections (processes) of the cells, therefore it is mentioned as the zone of projection. Vesicles in the juxtanuclear zone are indicated with red, in the peripheral zone with green and in the processes with blue boxes. The nuclei are shown in white and interendothelial junctions are indicated with red. For better transparency the immunofluorescent staining of vesicles is not shown here.

description: The study investigated the effect of Community-Based Paid Extension (CPE) on vulnerability reduction of smallholder dairy farmers. Randomly sampled 255 farmers were interviewed together with 15 key informants’ interview. Both statistical analysis and thematic approach were employed to achieve triangulation. In about 68 % of cases, CPE reduced vulnerability to a degree experienced as ‘moderate’, whereas 20 % of them experienced a ‘high’ reduction in vulnerability. The CPE has addressed wide ranges of vulnerability of smallholder dairy system. The regression analysis confirmed the importance of sustainable and frequent paid extension service at community level. Other factors such as education level of the farmers, use of different interpersonal and mass extension media, as well as positive change in livelihood assets also significantly influence vulnerability reduction of the smallholder dairy farmers. CPE deserves dissemination throughout the country and seeks special dairy extension policy organized around it for rapid rural development.

description: In the current century, agriculture sustainability and the reduction of environmental pressure are two main objectives of the management of agro-ecosystems that is challenged by energy inefficiency. In this respect, the present study assessed one of the most important planting systems in Sistan Region by emergy analysis approach. It analyzed all inputs of greenhouse cucumber production system in Sistan including renewable inputs (sunlight, wind, rain), non-renewable inputs (net topsoil loss), and purchased inputs (machinery, fossil fuels, electricity, plastic, utility, labor, N, K, P and micro fertilizers, and chemical herbicides) and services. In this study, an emergy analysis was performed on greenhouse cucumber production system of Sistan using the data collected from a 3000-m2 greenhouse in Zahak Agricultural Research Station (as an average representative of agricultural lands in Sistan Region). The results revealed that total emergy of greenhouse cucumber system was 1.094 × 1018seJ, and diesel fuel and labor were the main emergy consumers with the emergy consumption rates of 7.9 × 1017 and 1.92 × 1017seJ ha-1, respectively. Main emergy indices including emergy yield ratio, emergy investment ratio, environmental loading ratio, and sustainability index were found to be 1.00, 2089, 4.34 and 20.23, respectively. Therefore, it is imperative to consider the optimization of highly consumed inputs, the reduction of environmental impacts, and the increase in sustainability by making changes in greenhouse structures, enhancing energy use efficiency inside the greenhouse, and mechanizing the planting, cultivating and harvesting processes in order to develop greenhouse cucumber system in Sistan.

 Taxonomic annotations: — Caesalpinia myabensis var. myabensis, C. myabensis var. hermeliae, C. myabensis var. hornei and C. myabensis var. subglauca are not clearly distinguished, as they overlap in the number of pinnae, pairs of leaflets, secondary nerves, length of the petiole, the leaf rachis, the axis of the inflorescence, the pedicel and the dimensions of the leaflets and the fruits. For this reason, such varieties are not recognized as distinct taxa.

A 96 GeV Higgs Boson in the N2HDM

description: We discuss a $\sim 3\,σ$ signal (local) in the light Higgs-boson search in the diphoton decay mode at $\sim 96$ GeV as reported by CMS, together with a $\sim 2\,σ$ excess (local) in the $b \bar b$ final state at LEP in the same mass range. We interpret this possible signal as a Higgs boson in the 2 Higgs Doublet Model with an additional real Higgs singlet (N2HDM). We find that the lightest Higgs boson of the N2HDM can perfectly fit both excesses simultaneously, while the second lightest state is in full agreement with the Higgs-boson measurements at 125 GeV, and the full Higgs-boson sector is in agreement with all Higgs exclusion bounds from LEP, the Tevatron and the LHC as well as other theoretical and experimental constraints. We show that only the N2HDM type II and IV can fit both the LEP excess and the CMS excess with a large ggF production component at $\sim 96$ GeV. We derive bounds on the N2HDM Higgs sector from a fit to both excesses and describe how this signal can be further analyzed at the LHC and at future $e^+e^-$ colliders, such as the ILC.
