description: We have modelled the process of reionization of the IGM by photoionization by galaxies, in order to predict the epoch of reionization. We use a sophisticated semi-analytic model to track the formation of galaxies. Our study represents a much more complete and physically consistent modelling of reionization than has been conducted in the past, containing significant improvements in the modelling of the collapse of baryons into dark matter halos, and in the model for the cooling and condensation of gas within halos (including photoheating from a self-consistently computed ionizing background and cooling due to H2). We find that reionization can be achieved by z~10-20 in a LCDM cosmological model with sigma8~0.9. However, a cosmological model with a running spectral index is only able to achieve reionization before z~9 if extreme assumptions are made about the physics of feedback at high redshifts. We also consider the galaxy formation model discussed by Baugh et al., and find that it is able to reionize the Universe by z~12. The previous results assume that all of the ionizing photons produced by stars in galaxies are able to escape and ionize the IGM. If this is not the case, then the redshift of reionization could be substantially reduced. We find that extended periods of partial reionization and double reionizations can occur in models in which the first stars formed via cooling by H2 molecules, are very massive, and in which the escape fraction of ionizing photons ~10-30%. Such models do not fully reionize until z~6-7, but predict an electron scattering optical depth as large as 0.15. Models with lower sigma8=0.7-0.8 as suggested by the recent WMAP three year data have reduced redshifts of reionization, but can be consistent with the lower optical depth also suggested by the WMAP three year data.

description: Electroweak Baryogenesis, given a first order phase transition, does not work in the standard model because the quark Yukawa matrices are too hierarchical. On the other hand, the neutrino mass matrix is apparently not hierarchical. In models with neutrino mass generation at low scales, the neutrino Yukawa couplings lead to large CP-violation in the reflection probability of heavy leptons by the expanding Higgs bubble wall, and can generate the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe. The mechanism predicts new vector-like leptons below the TeV scale and sizable mu -> e processes.

description: Demand for outdoor recreation was analyzed at four Lower Snake River reservoirs for the purposes of measuring willingness-to-pay for outdoor recreation trips. Data were collected with a single mailing survey using a list of names and addresses collected from recreationists at the reservoirs during May through October, 1997. The survey resulted in 408 usable responses. Outdoor recreation demand was estimated using a disequilibrium labor market travel cost model that assumed recreationists did not (or could not) give up earnings in exchange for more free time for outdoor recreation. The travel cost demand model related outdoor recreation trips (from home to site) per year by groups of recreationists to the dollar costs of the trip, to the time costs of the trip, to the prices on substitute or complementary trip activities, and other independent variables. The dollar cost of the trip was based on reported travel distances from home to site times the average observed cost of $0.202/mile for a car divided by the average party size (4.87) yielded 4.12 cents per mile per recreationist. Trips per year to the reservoirs, the dependent variable was estimated using a truncated negative binomial regression. Consumer surplus was estimated at $71.31 per person per trip. The average number of outdoor recreation trips per year from home to the Lower Snake River Reservoirs was 8.364, resulting in an average annual willingness-to-pay of $596 per person. After adjusting for non-response bias the annual willingness to pay for recreation at the reservoirs exceeded $31 million.

description: Cyclic cellular automata (CCA) are models of excitable media. Started from random initial conditions, they produce several different kinds of spatial structure, depending on their control parameters. We introduce new tools from information theory that let us calculate the dynamical information content of spatial random processes. This complexity measure allows us to quantitatively determine the rate of self-organization of these cellular automata, and establish the relationship between parameter values and self-organization in CCA. The method is very general and can easily be applied to other cellular automata or even digitized experimental data.

description: We study nonthermal production of baryon and dark matter. If we extend the MSSM by introducing some singlet chiral superfields so as to enlarge the conserved global symmetry, the abundance of the baryon and the dark matter in the universe may be explained as the charge asymmetry of that symmetry. In such a case, the baryon energy density and the dark matter energy density in the present universe can be correlated each other and take the similar order values naturally.

description: Pulsar detection and timing experiments are applications where adaptive filters seem eminently suitable tools for radio-frequency-interference (RFI) mitigation. We describe a novel variant which works well in field trials of pulsar observations centred on an observing frequency of 675 MHz, a bandwidth of 64 MHz and with 2-bit sampling. Adaptive filters have generally received bad press for RFI mitigation in radio astronomical observations with their most serious drawback being a spectral echo of the RFI embedded in the filtered signals. Pulsar observations are intrinsically less sensitive to this as they operate in the (pulsar period) time domain. The field trials have allowed us to identify those issues which limit the effectiveness of the adaptive filter. We conclude that adaptive filters can significantly improve pulsar observations in the presence of RFI.

What is L*?: Anatomy of the Galaxy Luminosity Function

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Using the empirical relations between the central galaxy luminosity and the halo mass, and between the total galaxy luminosity in a halo and the halo mass, we construct the galaxy luminosity function (LF). To the luminosity of the central galaxy in a halo of a given mass we assign log-normal scatter with a mean calibrated against the observations. In halos where the total galaxy luminosity exceeds that of the central galaxy, satellite galaxies are distributed as a power-law in luminosity. Combined with the halo mass function, this description reproduces the observed characteristics of the galaxy LF, including a shape consistent with the Schechter function. When all galaxies are included, regardless of the environment or the Hubble type, the Schechter L* is the luminosity scale above which the central galaxy luminosity-halo mass relation flattens; L* corresponds to ~10^{13}Msun on the halo mass scale. In surveys where central galaxies in massive clusters are neglected, either by design or because of the cosmic variance, L* is simply the mean luminosity of central galaxies in halos at the upper end of the selected mass range. The smooth, exponential decay of the Schechter function toward high luminosities reflects the intrinsic scatter in the central galaxy luminosity-halo mass relation. In addition to the LF, the model successfully reproduces the observed dependence of galaxy clustering bias on luminosity.

description: Temperature- and frequency-dependent infrared spectroscopy identifies two contributions to the electronic properties of the magnetic kagome metal Fe$_3$Sn$_2$: two-dimensional Dirac fermions and strongly correlated flat bands. The interband transitions within the linearly dispersing Dirac bands appear as a two-step feature along with a very narrow Drude component due to intraband contribution. Low-lying absorption features indicate flat bands with multiple van Hove singularities. Localized charge carriers are seen as a Drude-peak shifted to finite frequencies. The spectral weight is redistributed when the spins are reoriented at low temperatures; a sharp mode appears suggesting the opening of a gap due to the spin reorientation as the sign of additional Weyl nodes in the system.

We present numerical evidence indicating that each such frequency-domain boundary kernel admits a "sum-of-poles" representation.

description: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a highly prevalent and pernicious substance use disorder that is characterized by widespread changes to gene expression that may drive maladaptive behavioral progression from binge alcohol use to dependence and withdrawal. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) in mice and superior frontal cortex (SFC) in humans undergo changes in gene expression and function after chronic alcohol and are known to drive late-stage AUD behaviors. Epigenetic regulatory mechanisms are mediating factors between environment and gene expression. Because DNA-level epigenetic regulation of CpG dinucleotides is known to contribute to gene expression and disease pathology, I hypothesized that chronic alcohol exposure alters the global DNA-level epigenetic landscape, leading to changes in expression of genes that contribute to alcohol pathologies. In the first chapter, I provide a comprehensive review of the literature pertaining to DNA modifications and their role in AUD. In the second chapter, I use a mouse model of alcohol intoxication, dependence, and withdrawal to identify the effects of chronic alcohol on DNA-level epigenetic regulatory systems in the PFC and report that expression of DNA-modifying genes is dynamically regulated by alcohol exposure and withdrawal, and this regulation leads to downstream changes in global DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation. These changes are cell type-specific and are influenced not only by time since alcohol exposure, but also by sex. In the third chapter, I analyzed a human methylation microarray dataset to describe alcohol- and sex-related differential methylation in the genome. From this analysis, I present differential methylation in genes of molecular pathways involved in known contributing factors to AUD, including neuroimmune pathways and neuronal signaling and function, and describe how these changes to DNA methylation may contribute to gene expression and AUD phenotype. In the fourth chapter, I describe how normally epigenetically silenced genomic repeats are derepressed and propose a mechanism for how they may contribute to AUD-related neuroinflammation. I conclude by submitting that DNA-level epigenetic regulation is a significant contributor to AUD pathology and suggest that DNA modifications may be a potential therapeutic target requiring continued research into its functional role in regulating alcohol behaviors through mediation between genome and environment

description: This protocol describes how to digitally extract a measure of rodent activity from tracking tunnels based on the amount of area of the tracking card that exhibits rodent (or target) footprints). Tracking tunnels are more commonly used as presence/absence devices, with the standard measure being the proportion of tunnel cards in a network that exhibit target species footprints. The activity index derived from the attach protocol provides more fine-scale activity metrics, as the intensity with with each card has been tracked (rather than just whether or not the card has been tracked) is used as the monitoring metric. Tracking tunnels are a standard monitoring tool for numerous invasive species including rats, mice, possums and stoats. They are baited with non-toxic lure, in this case, a dollop of peanut butter. Tracking tunnels were deployed for a continuous one-month period and were the collected and processed digitally. For information about tracking tunnel deployment and use see associated research article.Note that the protocol for processing tracking tunnels and chew cards (the other protocol in this collection) use different software, as tracking tunnels in this study exhibited a large amount of small insect footprints, so converting images to binary images over-inflated level of activity. As such, a manual counting method was used.
Effects of oblique incidence and colliding pulses on laser-driven proton acceleration from relativistically transparent ultrathin targets

description: The use of ultrathin solid foils offers optimal conditions for accelerating protons from laser-matter interactions. When the target is thin enough that relativistic self-induced transparency (RSIT) sets in, all of the target electrons get heated to high energies by the laser, which maximizes the accelerating electric field and therefore the final ion energy. In this work, we first investigate how ion acceleration by ultraintense femtosecond laser pulses in transparent CH$_2$ solid foils is modified when turning from normal to oblique ($45^\circ$) incidence. Due to stronger electron heating, we find that higher proton energies can be obtained at oblique incidence but in thinner optimum targets. We then show that proton acceleration can be further improved by splitting the laser pulse into two half-pulses focused at opposite incidence angles. An increase by $\sim 30\,\%$ in the maximum proton energy and by a factor of $\sim 4$ in the high-energy proton charge is reported compared to the reference case of a single normally incident pulse.

The Ti 2p core-level spectra clearly show Ti4+ states and do not exhibit any indication of Ti3+ states in TiO2 layers irrespective of a different kind of adjacent atomic layer with different chemical carrier concentration. This result indicates that the Ti ions in the TiO2 atomic layers preserve their tetravalent states even in the vicinity of the valence-mismatched interface between LSMO and STO, reflecting chemical stability of the Ti4+ states.

description: The coupling between electrons and phonons in solids plays a central role in describing many phenomena, including superconductivity and thermoelecric transport. Calculations of this coupling are exceedingly demanding as they necessitate integrations over both the electron and phonon momenta, both of which span the Brillouin zone of the crystal, independently. We present here an ab initio method for efficiently calculating electron-phonon mediated transport properties by dramatically accelerating the computation of the double integrals with a dual interpolation technique that combines maximally localized Wannier functions with symmetry-adapted plane waves. The performance gain in relation to the current state-of-the-art Wannier-Fourier interpolation is approximately 2n_s \times M, where n_s is the number of crystal symmetry operations and M, a number in the range 5 - 60, governs the expansion in star functions. We demonstrate with several examples how our method performs some ab initio calculations involving electron-phonon interactions.

description: We investigate the correlations among stellar mass (M_*), disk scale length (R_d), and rotation velocity at 2.2 disk scale lengths (V_2.2) for a sample of 81 disk-dominated galaxies (disk/total >= 0.9) selected from the SDSS. We measure V_2.2 from long-slit H-alpha rotation curves and infer M_* from galaxy i-band luminosities (L_i) and g-r colors. We find logarithmic slopes of 2.60+/-0.13 and 3.05+/-0.12 for the L_i-V_2.2 and M_*-V_2.2 relations, somewhat shallower than most previous studies, with intrinsic scatter of 0.13 dex and 0.16 dex. Our direct estimates of the total-to-stellar mass ratio within 2.2R_d, assuming a Kroupa IMF, yield a median ratio of 2.4 for M_*>10^10 Msun and 4.4 for M_*=10^9-10^10 Msun, with large scatter at a given M_* and R_d. The typical ratio of the rotation speed predicted for the stellar disk alone to the observed rotation speed at 2.2R_d is ~0.65. The distribution of R_d at fixed M_* is broad, but we find no correlation between disk size and the residual from the M_*-V_2.2 relation, implying that this relation is an approximately edge-on view of the disk galaxy fundamental plane. Independent of the assumed IMF, this result implies that stellar disks do not, on average, dominate the mass within 2.2R_d. We discuss our results in the context of infall models of disk formation in cold dark matter halos. A model with a disk-to-halo mass ratio m_d=0.05 provides a reasonable match to the R_d-M_* distribution for spin parameters λranging from ~0.04-0.08, and it yields a reasonable match to the mean M_*-V_2.2 relation. A model with m_d=0.1 predicts overly strong correlations between disk size and M_*-V_2.2 residual. Explaining the wide range of halo-to-disk mass ratios within 2.2R_d requires significant scatter in m_d values, with systematically lower m_d for galaxies with lower $M_*$.

description: We use Quantum Monte Carlo simulations to show the presence and study the properties of solitons in the one dimensional soft-core bosonic Hubbard model with near neighbor interaction in traps. We show that when the half-filled Charge Density Wave (CDW) phase is doped, solitons are produced and quasi long range order established. We discuss the implications of these results for the presence and robustness of this solitonic phase in Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC) on one dimensional optical lattices in traps and study the associated excitation spectrum. The density profile exhibits the coexistence of Mott insulator, CDW, and superfluid regions.

Dynamics of sediment and woody debris in headwater streams, southeast Alaska

description: Headwater streams are the most important sources of water, sediment, nutrients, and organic matter for downstream systems. Timber harvesting and mass movement alter hydrologic, geomorphic and biological processes in stream channels and riparian zones of headwater systems. In particular, changes in abundance of woody debris and sediment related to timber harvesting and mass movement and the recovery processes for such disturbances affect the material dynamics and habitat conditions. Therefore, the amount and distribution of sediment and woody debris as well as bedload and suspended sediment transport for different management and disturbance regimes were examined in headwater streams of southeast Alaska. External influences (mass movement and timber harvesting) modified channel morphology and sediment transport from undisturbed old-growth conditions in different ways. In recent clear-cut channels, inputs of logging slash significantly increased the abundance of in-channel woody debris. In the absence of landslides and debris flows, woody materials remained in the channels 50 years after logging where young-growth confers (logged in 1950's) dominated the riparian zone. Woody debris related to logging activates initially stored sediment, created channel steps, and reduced sediment movement. When landslides and debris flows in 1962 (7 years after logging), woody debris pieces were transported from upper reaches of headwater streams and deposited in downstream reaches in recent landslide channels and in channels with young alder riparian stands. Because of the high sediment production from bank slopes, more bedload and suspended sediment was transported in recent landslide and debris flow channels. Once red alder actively re-colonized riparian zones 20 to 50 years after mass movement and then recruited woody debris and organic matter, greater amounts of woody debris and sediment storage behind woody debris were observed. The recovery processes related to vegetation regeneration on disturbed soil and woody debris recruitment into channels significantly decreased sediment transport. Temporal and spatial variations of availability of sediment and woody debris characterize processes and morphology in headwater streams. Such spatial and temporal variations in headwater systems are important for understanding organic and inorganic material dynamics through channel networks and evaluating the influence of timber harvesting on downstream ecosystems.

description: Profitability and risk, 1988-2001, are examined for lamb-grazed field pea as a fallow alternative with wheat, or an extended wheat-sunflower-millet rotation. Switching from conventional wheat-fallow to an extended rotation with grazed-peas increases profitability (2.3% to 7.3%), and reduces risk (below 0% target in only 2 versus 7 of 14 years).

description: We analyze the occurrence of in-plane anisotropy in the electronic, magnetic, elastic and transport properties of more than one thousand 2D materials from the C2DB database. We identify hundreds of anisotropic materials and classify them according to their point group symmetry and degree of anisotropy. A statistical analysis reveals that a lower point group symmetry and a larger amount of different elements in the structure favour all types of anisotropies, which could be relevant for future materials design approaches. Besides, we identify novel compounds, predicted to be easily exfoliable from a parent bulk compound, with anisotropies that largely outscore those of already known 2D materials. Our findings provide a comprehensive reference for future studies of anisotropic response in atomically-thin crystals and point to new previously unexplored materials for the next generation of anisotropic 2D devices.

description: Successful cell division requires a tight regulation of chromosome motion via the activity of molecular motors. Many of the key players at the origin of the forces generating the movement have been identified, but their spatial and temporal organization remains elusive. The protein complex Kinetochore on the chromosome associates with microtubules emanating from one of the spindle poles and drives the chromosome toward the pole. Chromokinesin motors on the chromosome arms also interact with microtubules, ejecting the chromosome away from the pole. In animal cells, a monooriented chromosome (associated to a single pole) periodically switches between phases of poleward and away from the pole movement[, a behavior tentatively explained so far by the existence of a complex switching mechanism within the kinetochore itself. Here we show that the interplay between the morphology of the mitotic spindle and the collective kinetics of chromokinesins can account for the highly non-linear periodic chromosome motion. Our analysis provides a natural explanation for the origin of chromosome directional instability and for the mechanism by which chromosomes feel their position in space.

Outer Pseudoring in the Galaxy

description: The kinematical features of the Sagittarius (R=5.7 kpc), Carina (R=6.5 kpc), Cygnus (R=6.8 kpc), and Perseus (R=8.2 kpc) arm fragments suggest the existence of two spiral patterns rotating at different angular velocities in the Galaxy. The inner spiral pattern represented by the Sagittarius arm rotates at the angular velocity of the bar, Omega=60(+/-5) km s-1 kpc-1. The outer spiral pattern, which consists of the Carina, Cygnus and Perseus arms, rotates at a smaller angular velocity, Omega=12-22 km s-1 kpc-1. The existence of the outer slow tightly wound spiral pattern and the inner fast spiral pattern can be explained in terms of the results of numerical simulations of the dynamics of the outer pseudoring. The OLR of the bar must be located between the Sagittarius and Carina arms. The Cygnus arm appears as a connecting link between the fast and slow spiral patterns.

description: This article studied Hawaii public opinion on agricultural products and processes using GMO technology. We used telephone to interview the people in each island of Hawaii. We found out that the favorability rating toward the attributes of GMO technological application differ based on the nature of GMO benefits. And sociodemographic variables played a significant difference in the preference of using GMO technology on producing agricultural products and process. Most significant associations were gender and island of residence. Age, education and ethnic background significantly also influenced the attitude of respondents toward some of GMO attributes. The fewest significant associations were heard of GMO and income.

description: We report the discovery of TOI 694 b and TIC 220568520 b, two low-mass stellar companions in eccentric orbits around metal-rich Sun-like stars, first detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). TOI 694 b has an orbital period of 48.05131$\pm$0.00019 days and eccentricity of 0.51946$\pm$0.00081, and we derive a mass of 89.0$\pm$5.3 $M_J$ (0.0849$\pm$0.0051 $M_\odot$) and radius of 1.111$\pm$0.017 $R_J$ (0.1142$\pm$0.0017 $R_\odot$). TIC 220568520 b has an orbital period of 18.55769$\pm$0.00039 days and eccentricity of 0.0964$\pm$0.0032, and we derive a mass of 107.2$\pm$5.2 $M_J$ (0.1023$\pm$0.0050 $M_\odot$) and radius of 1.248$\pm$0.018 $R_J$ (0.1282$\pm$0.0019 $R_\odot$). Both binary companions lie close to and above the Hydrogen burning mass threshold that separates brown dwarfs and the lowest mass stars, with TOI 694 b being 2-$σ$ above the canonical mass threshold of 0.075 $M_\odot$. The relatively long periods of the systems mean that the magnetic fields of the low-mass companions are not expected to inhibit convection and inflate the radius, which according to one leading theory is common in similar objects residing in short-period tidally-synchronized binary systems. Indeed we do not find radius inflation for these two objects when compared to theoretical isochrones. These two new objects add to the short but growing list of low-mass stars with well-measured masses and radii, and highlight the potential of the TESS mission for detecting such rare objects orbiting bright stars.

Lava channel formation during the 2001 eruption on Mount Etna: evidence for mechanical erosion

description: We report the direct observation of a peculiar lava channel that was formed near the base of a parasitic cone during the 2001 eruption on Mount Etna. Erosive processes by flowing lava are commonly attributed to thermal erosion. However, field evidence strongly suggests that models of thermal erosion cannot explain the formation of this channel. Here, we put forward the idea that the essential erosion mechanism was abrasive wear. By applying a simple model from tribology we demonstrate that the available data agree favorably with our hypothesis. Consequently, we propose that erosional processes resembling the wear phenomena in glacial erosion are possible in a volcanic environment.

description: Ghana is an emerging success story in Africa and in a couple of years will become the first African country to achieve the first Millennium Development Goal of halving its national poverty rate. The government of Ghana has therefore extended its development vision and recently declared the goal of reaching middle-income-country (MIC) status by 2015. To analyze possible pathways and implications of achieving MIC status, this paper examines other countries’ experiences on their way to becoming MICs and emphasizes the important role of growth acceleration, export diversification, and economic structural change in the transformation process. The paper further analyzes Ghana’s growth options and their structural implications using a dynamic computable general equilibrium model recently developed for Ghana. The results of the model simulation suggest that Ghana’s annual GDP growth rate must accelerate from the recent 5.5 percent to 7.6 percent to achieve MIC status by 2015. Unlike in other countries, agriculture in Ghana is likely to remain the mainstay of growth and export earnings, while the role of manufacturing growth in achieving MIC status may be constrained by the manufacturing sector’s dependency on agricultural inputs and small size. Services may not become the prime mover of accelerated growth, but improved efficiency in trade, transport, and business services will be a key for growth acceleration in other sectors.
