Artefactos Paiján de la región de Cupisnique, norte del Perú. Sitios, procedencia del material, clasificación y análisis
Creators: name: Hecker, Wolfgang

description: En el noroeste del Perú se encuentran yacimientos de rocas magmáticas, vale decir volcanitas y vidrios volcánicos, cerca de la costa del Pacífico, así por ejemplo, en la parte norte del desierto de Cupisnique que llegó a ser conocida tanto por una cerámica temprana como por hallazgos de artefactos de piedra. Condiciones climáticas favorables hicieron surgir aquí antiguamente poblaciones cuyos habitantes utilizaron para la fabricación de implementos rocas volcánicas bien apropiadas. Testimonio de tales actividades dan no sólo diversos talleres líticos sino también innumerables fragmentos de instrumentos hechos de los materiales citados, en especial de volcanitas. Análisis de este tipo de rocas confirman el empleo de aquel material que abunda en el lugar. Artefactos de vidrios volcánicos y de sedimentos sólo se encuentran muy pocos en esta región.

Apurlec
Creators: name: Trimborn, Hermann
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: Apurlec es uno de los complejos de ruinas más extensos del norte del Perú, que hoy se encuentra en medio de un paisaje de estepas. Según los restos de construcción encontrados, Apurlec fue un considerable centro residencial, cuya parte de mayor densidad se encontraba al pie de un cerro de dos picos con múltiples terrazas en sus laderas. Aparte de dos docenas de pequeñas pirámides, se destacan en la planificación general grandes cuadras, que a su vez están subdivididas en más pequeñas. Los grupos de cuadras están separados por calles. Las cerámicas encontradas datan en su mayoría de una época anterior a la de la cerámica negra Chimú. Las pruebas de carbono 14 permiten ubicar dichos objetos entre los años 520 a 840 d.C. y enmarcan a las ruinas Apurlec dentro de la expansión Huari.

Morteros para parica, tabletas para aspirar y bancos zoomorfos. Una contribución al problema de las relaciones culturales entre los Andes y el Amazonas en el Período Formativo
Creators: name: Zerries, Otto
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: Las investigaciones arqueológicas practicadas por Donald W. Lathrap durante los años sesenta y setenta en la montaña peruana (Tutishcainyo) acusaron en el ámbito de la cerámica parangonesa con la de Kotosh, procedente de la zona montañosa centro-andina y perteneciente al período Chavín del segundo milenio a.C., la cual habría que datarla, sin embargo, algo más temprano. Esto, junto con algunas otras características como, por ejemplo, la representación iconográfica de la mandioca en el obelisco Tello y el hecho de que en éste no figure al mismo tiempo el maíz, hace suponer que las altas culturas andinas fueron estimuladas en su formación desde las tierras bajas amazónicas. Dentro de este marco, y con referencia a otros trabajos respectivos de D. Lathrap, se intenta en el presente artículo retrotraer a semejante influencia del ámbito amazónico asimismo el complejo del uso ritual de polvos narcóticos para aspirar, hasta donde éste se manifiesta en la región andina. Para tal efecto se recurre a una serie de artefactos de piedra, madera y arcilla de ambas zonas, como ser morteros para moler el polvo, tubitos para aspirarlo y tablillas para su ofrecimiento ceremonial. No obstante, surgen problemas en cuanto a la sincronización cronológica. Partiendo de la base que el complejo del "rapé" sea parte integrante del chamanismo, le cabe especial importancia a hallazgos de bancos zoomorfos de arcilla en miniatura de las fases Valdvia 3 y 4 ( 2 3 0 0 - 2000 a.C.) que pueden considerarse c o m o réplicas de asientos chamánicos zoomorfos de madera, tal como suelen aparecer aún hoy en la región del Amazonas.

description: We revisit the blazar sequence exploiting the complete, flux limited sample of blazars with known redshift detected by the Fermi satellite after 4 years of operations (the 3LAC sample). We divide the sources into gamma-ray luminosity bins, collect all the archival data for all blazars, and construct their spectral energy distribution (SED). We describe the average SED of blazars in the same luminosity bin through a very simple, completely phenomenological function consisting of two broken power laws connecting with a power law of fixed slope describing the radio emission. We do that separately for BL Lacs and for flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) and also for all blazars together. The main results are: i) FSRQs display approximately the same SED as the luminosity increases, except for the fact that the relative importance of the high energy peak increases; ii) as a consequence, X-ray spectra of FSRQs become harder for larger luminosities; iii) BL Lacs form indeed a sequence: they become redder (i.e. the peak frequencies becomes smaller) for increasing luminosities, with a steeper gamma-ray slope and a larger dominance of the high energy peak; iv) for all blazars (BL Lacs+FSRQs) these properties becomes more prominent, as the highest luminosity bin is populated mostly by FSRQs and the lowest luminosity bin mostly by BL Lacs. This agrees with the original blazar sequence, although BL Lacs never have an average gamma-ray slope as hard as found in the original sequence. v) At high luminosities, a large fraction of FSRQs shows signs of thermal emission from the accretion disc, contributing in the optical-UV.

Eine Gattung moderner Volkskunst im südlichen Uganda

Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: En África han surgido en los últimos años formas artísticas que no se remontan a tradiciones vernaculares, ni se han originado mediante la dirección europea directa o a causa de intereses comerciales extranjeros. Como se trata de un proceso reciente es posible, a través de indagaciones y por medio de una reconstrucción histórica a corto plazo, rastrearlo hasta sus comienzos. Este proceso se investiga a base de los "mottos", una serie bien determinada de objetos procedentes del sur de Uganda. Se trata de tablas parlantes dotadas de decoraciones figurativas y ornamentales. En su forma básica se remontan a la misión católica. Sin embargo, no se quedaron en la integración de un elemento aportado desde fuera, sino que sobre esta base tuvieron lugar evoluciones propias que involucraban tanto una extensión temática a aspectos tradicionales de la cultura Baganda (como el sistema de clan), como también la estructuración de una tradición creativa totalmente nueva. Por su comercialización e integración al ambiente habitacional de muchos Bagandas, los "mottos" experimentaron una mayor difusión.

description: We chart the breakdown of semiclassical gravity by analyzing the Virasoro conformal blocks to high numerical precision, focusing on the heavy-light limit corresponding to a light probe propagating in a BTZ black hole background. In the Lorentzian regime, we find empirically that the initial exponential time-dependence of the blocks transitions to a universal $t^{-\frac{3}{2}}$ power-law decay. For the vacuum block the transition occurs at $t \approx \frac{πc}{6 h_L}$, confirming analytic predictions. In the Euclidean regime, due to Stokes phenomena the naive semiclassical approximation fails completely in a finite region enclosing the `forbidden singularities'. We emphasize that limitations on the reconstruction of a local bulk should ultimately stem from distinctions between semiclassical and exact correlators.

On-farm Lamb Birth Weight and Growth Performance of Indigenous Sheep Breeds in Burie District, North Western Ethiopia
Creators: name: Abebe, Yenesew
Publisher: name: Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences
Year: 2019

description: This study was conducted in Burie District in North Western Ethiopia. The objectives of the study were to assess the on-farm birth weight and growth performance of indigenous sheep lambs. Three kebeles were selected for this study in Burie District. From each kebele 20 farmers having 5 or more breeding ewes were selected randomly. This study was conducted for 6 months. Farmers fed their breeding ewes on grazing lands and crop aftermath. The breeding ewes were supplemented with Atella (a residue of local alcoholic beverage) and food leftover. On average, there were 7.6 (SD =2.58) and 8.0 (SD = 3.50) heads of sheep per household at the beginning and at the end of the study, respectively. The birth weight of male lambs (2.6 kg) was greater (p<0.001) than the birth weight of female lambs (2.1 kg). The birth weight of Washera lambs (2.8 kg) was greater than the birth weight of Horro lambs (1.8 kg). There was no difference on the mean growth rate of male and female lambs. In addition, there was no difference on growth rate between Washera and Horro lambs. Generally, Washera lambs were heavier at birth than Horro lambs. There was no difference in body weight and growth rate between the two sheep breed lambs at 112 days of age. The results of this study indicated that Horro lambs had a lower birth weight than Washera lambs, but Horro lambs had similar body weight and growth rate with Washera lambs at 112 days of age when the two sheep breeds are compared within their respective breeding environments. To confirm the current results further studies should be conducted involving more animals and comparing the two breeds within the same environmental conditions.

description: In the paradigm of magnetic acceleration of relativistic jets, one of the key points is identifying a viable mechanism to convert the Poynting flux into the kinetic energy of the plasma beyond equipartition. A promising candidate is the kink instability, which deforms the body of the jet through helical perturbations. Since the detailed structure of real jets is unknown, we explore a large family of cylindrical, force-free equilibria to get robust conclusions. We find that the growth rate of the instability depends primarily on two parameters: (i) the gradient of the poloidal magnetic field; (ii) the Lorentz factor of the perturbation, which is closely related to the velocity of the plasma. We provide a simple fitting formula for the growth rate of the instability. As a tentative application, we use our results to interpret the dynamics of the jet in the nearby active galaxy M87. We show that the kink instability becomes non-linear at a distance from the central black hole comparable to where the jet stops accelerating. Hence (at least for this object), the kink instability of the jet is a good candidate to drive the transition from a Poynting-dominated to a kinetic-energy-dominated flow.

description: The BRITE mission is a pioneering space project aimed at the long-term photometric monitoring of the brightest stars in the sky by means of a constellation of nano-satellites. Its main advantage is high photometric accuracy and time coverage inaccessible from the ground. The main aim of this paper is the presentation of procedures used to obtain high-precision photometry from a series of images acquired by the BRITE satellites in two modes of observing, stare and chopping. We developed two pipelines corresponding to the two modes of observing. The assessment of the performance of both pipelines is presented. It is based on two comparisons, which use data from six runs of the UniBRITE satellite: (i) comparison of photometry obtained by both pipelines on the same data, which were partly affected by charge transfer inefficiency (CTI), (ii) comparison of real scatter with theoretical expectations. It is shown that for CTI-affected observations, the chopping pipeline provides much better photometry than the other pipeline. For other observations, the results are comparable only for data obtained shortly after switching to chopping mode. Starting from about 2.5 years in orbit, the chopping mode of observing provides significantly better photometry for UniBRITE data than the stare mode. This paper shows that high-precision space photometry with low-cost nano-satellites is achievable. The proposed meth- ods, used to obtain photometry from images affected by high impulsive noise, can be applied to data from other space missions or even to data acquired from ground-based observations.

description: Bulk rutile RuO$_2$ has long been considered a Pauli paramagnet. Here we report that RuO$_2$ exhibits a hitherto undetected lattice distortion below approximately 900 K. The distortion is accompanied by antiferromagnetic order up to at least 300 K with a small room temperature magnetic moment of approximately 0.05 $μ_B$ as evidenced by polarized neutron diffraction. Density functional theory plus $U$ (DFT+$U$) calculations indicate that antiferromagnetism is favored even for small values of the Hubbard $U$ of the order of 1 eV. The antiferromagnetism may be traced to a Fermi surface instability, lifting the band degeneracy imposed by the rutile crystal field. The combination of high Néel temperature and small itinerant moments make RuO$_2$ unique among ruthenate compounds and among oxide materials in general.

Seminal fluid mediates ejaculate competition in social insects

description: Queens of ants and bees normally obtain a lifetime supply of sperm on a single day of sexual activity and sperm competition is expected to occur in lineages where queens receive sperm from multiple males. We compared singly-mated (monandrous) and multiply-mated (polyandrous) sister groups of ants and bees and show that seminal fluid of polyandrous species has a more positive effect on the survival of a male’s own sperm than on other males’ sperm. This difference was not observed in the monandrous species, suggesting that incapacitation of competing sperm may have independently evolved in both bees and ants. In Atta leafcutter ants the negative effect of the seminal fluid of other males was negated by secretion from the queen sperm-storage organ, suggesting that queens may control ejaculate competition after sperm storage.

description: We present a lattice quantum chromodynamics determination of the scalar and vector form factors for the $B_s \rightarrow D_s \ell ν$ decay over the full physical range of momentum transfer. In conjunction with future experimental data, our results will provide a new method to extract $|V_{cb}|$, which may elucidate the current tension between exclusive and inclusive determinations of this parameter. Combining the form factor results at non-zero recoil with recent HPQCD results for the $B \rightarrow D \ell ν$ form factors, we determine the ratios $f^{B_s \rightarrow D_s}_0(M_π^2) / f^{B \rightarrow D}_0(M_K^2) = 1.000(62)$ and $f^{B_s \rightarrow D_s}_0(M_π^2) / f^{B \rightarrow D}_0(M_π^2) = 1.006(62)$. These results give the fragmentation fraction ratios $f_s/f_d = 0.310(30)_{\mathrm{stat.}}(21)_{\mathrm{syst.}}(6)_{\mathrm{theor.}}(38)_{\mathrm{latt.}} $ and $f_s/f_d = 0.307(16)_{\mathrm{stat.}}(21)_{\mathrm{syst.}}(23)_{\mathrm{theor.}}(44)_{\mathrm{latt.}}$, respectively. The fragmentation fraction ratio is an important ingredient in experimental determinations of $B_s$ meson branching fractions at hadron colliders, in particular for the rare decay ${\cal B}(B_s \rightarrow μ^+ μ^-)$. In addition to the form factor results, we make the first prediction of the branching fraction ratio $R(D_s) = {\cal B}(B_s\to D_sτν)/{\cal B}(B_s\to D_s\ellν) = 0.301(6)$, where $\ell$ is an electron or muon. Current experimental measurements of the corresponding ratio for the semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons disagree with Standard Model expectations at the level of nearly four standard deviations. Future experimental measurements of $R(D_s)$ may help understand this discrepancy.

description: String theory models of axion monodromy inflation exhibit scalar potentials which are quadratic for small values of the inflaton field and evolve to a more complicated function for large field values. Oftentimes the large field behaviour is gentler than quadratic, lowering the tensor-to-scalar ratio. This effect, known as flattening, has been observed in the string theory context through the properties of the DBI+CS D-brane action. We revisit such flattening effects in type IIB flux compactifications with mobile D7-branes, with the inflaton identified with the D7-brane position. We observe that, with a generic choice of background fluxes, flattening effects are larger than previously observed, allowing to fit these models within current experimental bounds. In particular, we compute the cosmological observables in scenarios compatible with closed-string moduli stabilisation, finding tensor-to-scalar ratios as low as r ~ 0.04. These are models of single field inflation in which the inflaton is much lighter than the other scalars through a mild tuning of the compactification data.

description: We propose and experimentally demonstrate the enhancement in the filtering quality (Q) factor of an integrated micro-ring resonator (MRR) by embedding it in an integrated Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity formed by cascaded Sagnac loop reflectors (SLRs). By utilizing coherent interference within the FP cavity to reshape the transmission spectrum of the MRR, both the Q factor and the extinction ratio (ER) can be significantly improved. The device is theoretically analyzed, and practically fabricated on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer. Experimental results show that up to 11-times improvement in Q factor, together with an 8-dB increase in ER, can be achieved via our proposed method. The impact of varying structural parameters on the device performance is also investigated and verified by the measured spectra of the fabricated devices with different structural parameters.

description: We consider a rather simple method for the description of the Big Bang - Big Crunch cosmological singularity crossing. For the flat Friedmann universe this method gives the same results as more complicated methods, using Weyl symmetry or the transitions between the Jordan and Einstein frames. It is then easily generalized for the case of a Bianchi-I anisotropic universe. We also present early-time and late-time asymptotic solutions for a Bianchi-I universe, filled with a conformally coupled massless scalar field.

"Far as the Solar Walk": The Path of the North American Shaman
Creators: name: Brotherston, Gordon
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1984

description: It may be fairly claimed that the solar walk, pace Alexander Pope, was and is a paradigm in native North America. Integral to it are a pattern of days and years o f astronomical significance and the principle of the time-shift itself. With Chusco this leads further into the inner dimensions of the day, fore- and afternoon; in Mesoamerica it leads outwards towards a vast evolutionary story recorded at length in the "Popol Vuh " and counted by aeons, hundred of millions of years, in the hieroglyphic inscriptions.

description: Defects in silicon carbide (SiC) have emerged as a favorable platform for optically-active spin-based quantum technologies. Spin qubits exist in specific charge states of these defects, where the ability to control these states can provide enhanced spin-dependent readout and long-term charge stability of the qubits. We investigate this charge state control for two major spin qubits in 4H-SiC, the divacancy (VV) and silicon vacancy (Vsi), obtaining bidirectional optical charge conversion between the bright and dark states of these defects. We measure increased photoluminescence from VV ensembles by up to three orders of magnitude using near-ultraviolet excitation, depending on the substrate, and without degrading the electron spin coherence time. This charge conversion remains stable for hours at cryogenic temperatures, allowing spatial and persistent patterning of the relative charge state populations. We develop a comprehensive model of the defects and optical processes involved, offering a strong basis to improve material design and to develop quantum applications in SiC.

description: We report the detection of a largely ionized very-high velocity cloud (VHVC; $v_{\rm LSR}\sim-350$ km/s) toward M33 with the Hubble Space Telescope/Cosmic Origin Spectrograph. The VHVC is detected in OI, CII, SiII, and SiIII absorption along five sightlines separated by ~0.06-0.4 degree. On sub-degree scales, the velocities and ionic column densities of the VHVC remain relatively smooth with standard deviations of +/-14 km/s and +/-0.15 dex between the sightlines, respectively. The VHVC has a metallicity of [OI/HI]=-0.56+/-0.17 dex (Z=0.28+/-0.11 Z$_{\odot}$). Despite the position-velocity proximity of the VHVC to the ionized Magellanic Stream, the VHVC's higher metallicity makes it unlikely to be associated with the Stream, highlighting the complex velocity structure of this region of sky. We investigate the VHVC's possible origin by revisiting its surrounding HI environment. We find that the VHVC may be: (1) a MW CGM cloud, (2) related to a nearby HI VHVC -- Wright's Cloud, or (3) connected to M33's northern warp. Furthermore, the VHVC could be a bridge connecting Wright's Cloud and M33's northern warp, which would make it a Magellanic-like structure in the halo of M33.

description: The study was undertaken to evaluate at on-station growth and reproductive performance of F1 crossbred Boer-Woyto Guji goat kids reared under semi-intensive management system in Konso district, south Ethiopia. A total of 57 F1 crossbred kids were used to evaluate two independent variables: birth type and sex and ten dependent variables: age at first mating, gestation length, age at first kidding, birth weight, weaning weight, six-month weight, nine months weight, yearling weight and weight gains to weaning and yearling were analyzed. The study revealed that yearling weight of the crossbred kids was higher for males (30.72±6.29 kg) and single born (30.50±4.46) kids than females (27.74±1.67) and twins (25.67±3.54), respectively. Pre and post-weaning growth rates for Boer- Woyto-Guji F1 kids were 97.73 and 62.99 (g/day), respectively. Average age at first mating, gestation length and age at first kidding of the crossbred were 8.10±1.27, 5.03±0.02 and 12.91±1.22 months, respectively. Liter size of F1 does was 1.26. The mortality rate was higher during post-weaning (40.81%) than pre-weaning age (10.00%). Although the growth and reproductive performance were faster, the survivability of the F1 crossbred kids was under question. Hence, further comparative performance evaluation is needed with local goats under intensive management system.

Alusiones a adivinanzas en "La Aurora en Copacabana" de Calderón
Creators: name: Beutler, Gisela
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1984

description: Se documenta en el artículo que el enigma (advinanza) como "forma sencilla" (Einfache Formen, Jolles) se emplea en algunas comedias de Calderón. El enigma evocaba el interés del humanismo del siglo XVI, época en que se publicaron varias colecciones importantes de este "género chico " literario. Se usaba intercalar escenas bucólicas, en que había certámenes de adivinanzas, tanto en el teatro primitivo (Juan del Encina), como en la novela pastoril profana y "a lo divino". Lope de Vega nombra acertijos en "El villano en su rincón". Calderón emplea la voz "enigma" como sinónimo de "complicada trama dramática" en "Basta callar". En "La Aurora en Copacabana" alude al acertijo de parentesco. En la misma comedia inserta de modo indirecto una antigua adivinanza tradicional sobre el viento, la que adquiere dentro del contexto dramático el significado demonológico de espíritu maligno (Idolatría). También Miguel Ángel Asturias en "Mulata de Tal" identifica un ser mítico y diabólico con "el viento".

Heiratsbräuche der Indianer in Michoakan, Mexiko und Nikaragua im frühen 16. Jahrhundert nach dem Ehespiegel des Alfonso Gutiérrez de Veracruz

description: Se publican extractos en latín con traducción alemana del libro "speculum coniugiorum" de Alfonso Gutiérrez de Veracruz, que se refieren a las costumbres matrimoniales en Michoacán, México, y en Nicaragua antes de la llegada de los españoles. Estos datos son de importancia por el hecho de que Gutiérrez fue uno de los misioneros más activos en Michoacán en las primeras décadas del siglo XVI y pudo investigar personalmente las tradiciones prehispánicas en esta provincia. Después de Cervantes de Salazar, quien utilizó el libro de Gutiérrez en su "Crónica de la Nueva España", escrita alrededor de 1560, la obra de Gutiérrez cayó en el olvido total.

Asteroid 2014 YX49: a large transient Trojan of Uranus

description: In the outer Solar system, primordial Trojan asteroids may have remained dynamically stable for billions of years. Several thousands of them accompany Jupiter in its journey around the Sun and a similarly large population may be hosted by Neptune. In addition, recently captured or transient Jovian and Neptunian Trojans are not uncommon. In contrast, no Trojans of Saturn have been found yet and just one Uranian Trojan is known, 2011 QF99. Here, we discuss the identification of a second Trojan of Uranus: 2014 YX49. Like 2011 QF99, 2014 YX49 is a transient L4 Trojan although it orbits at higher inclination (25.55 degrees versus 10.83 degrees), is larger (absolute magnitude of 8.5 versus 9.7) and its libration period is slightly shorter (5.1 versus 5.9 kyr); contrary to 2011 QF99, its discovery was not the result of a targeted survey. It is less stable than 2011 QF99; our extensive N-body simulations show that 2014 YX49 may have been following a tadpole trajectory ahead of Uranus for about 60 kyr and it can continue doing so for another 80 kyr. Our analysis suggests that it may remain as co-orbital for nearly 1 Myr. As in the case of 2011 QF99, the long-term stability of 2014 YX49 is controlled by Jupiter and Neptune, but it is currently trapped in the 7:20 mean motion resonance with Saturn. Consistently, the dynamical mechanism leading to the capture into and the ejection from the Trojan state involves ephemeral multibody mean motion resonances.

description: Increasing nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms are applied to solving the real-world optimization problems, as they have some advantages over the classical methods of numerical optimization. This paper has proposed a new nature-inspired metaheuristic called Whale Swarm Algorithm for function optimization, which is inspired by the whales behavior of communicating with each other via ultrasound for hunting. The proposed Whale Swarm Algorithm has been compared with several popular metaheuristic algorithms on comprehensive performance metrics. According to the experimental results, Whale Swarm Algorithm has a quite competitive performance when compared with other algorithms.
