description: At the beginning of this thesis it would be well to try to to determine in just what province of History this study belongs, and what is the value of a study of French Public Opinion in Regard to the Spanish-American War. Although the issue of the War had no far-reaching effects upon the history of France, the French people were intensely interested in the fate of their trans-Pyrenean neighbors. The French watched intently every development of the Cuban insurrection, the attitude of the Spanish people and the American people, the progress of hostilities, every move of both governments, and any action or contemplated action on the part of the Great Powers. On some occasions, especially during the final conflict, this subject bid fair to monopolize the attention of the French press, so completely were the papers filled with news and opinions about it. Sven the Dreyfus affair was crowded from the front page for considerable periods. The French had plenty of opinions on the subject. Some of the moderate papers maintained the more or less dispassionate attitude of an outside spectator, while some of the more extreme papers, both conservative and radical, and even a number of the "moderate" republican journals, felt so strongly over various issues which they thought concerned France, that their opinions frequently bordered upon passion. A study of these reactions should give an Insight into the French mind, and lead to a better comprehension of the French national outlook. Hence, this thesis might be considered as distinctly a part of the study of French history.The chief usefulness of a study like this must necessarily lie in the exact opinions themselves, so a large portion of this paper is quoted directly from the French newspapers, hence, the thesis can still be considered as largely source material. An effort has been made to place in the text itself sufficient summaries and characterizations to enable a cursory reader to get a general idea of French opinion, although he might not take time to read all the quotations. For the thorough reader however, it is hoped that this seeming duplication will not be superfluous, but will lead to a more complete, simpler and clearer general impression.
Impact of High Energy νe Events on NOvA Oscillation Sensitivities
Creators: name: Ishwar Singh
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: NOvA is a two detector, long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment situated at Fermilab, Batavia, IL, USA. It is primarily designed to constrain neutrino oscillation parameters using muon neutrino (anti-neutrino) disappearance data and electron neutrino (anti-neutrino) appearance data. NOvA detects neutrinos from Fermilab’s Neutrinos at Main Injector (NuMI) beamline. The unoscillated muon neutrino and beam nu(e) events are observed by the NOvA Near Detector (ND), which is 100m underground and at a distance of 1km from the beam source. The Far Detector (FD), situated 809 km away from the ND, is in Ash River, MN, USA, and observes νμ and νe events after oscillations.
 Traditionally, NOvA has used nu(e) events in the energy range 1 < E < 4 GeV for 3-flavor neutrino oscillation analyses to constrain the neutrino oscillation parameters. This poster discusses the impact of including high-energy neutrino events with energies up to 12 GeV in the analysis with the aim of constraining the beam electron neutrino/antineutrino background events. Event count predictions and Asimov sensitivities after adding this high-energy sample event are presented.

description: A Necrose Gorda do Tecido Subcutâneo (NGTS) é uma doença do tecido adiposo subcutâneo pouco comum, descrita em recém-nascidos que sofreram hipóxia durante ou após o parto. Caracteriza-se por nódulos subcutâneos e tem um padrão histológico preciso.

Esta situação é autolimitada, geralmente benigna, raramente complicado de hipercalcémia. Os autores descrevem 2 casos de NGTS com evolução e complicações distintas. O primeiro caso é um recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal grave que apresentou NGTS com um mês e meio de vida, associado a hipercalcémia importante e persistente, controlada com hidratação e hidrocortisona endovenosas. O segundo caso é de um recém-nascido com cardiopatia congénita dueto-dependente que entra em falência multiorgânica secundária a choque cardiogénico ao 4° dia de vida, surgindo os nódulos subcutâneos ao 7° dia complicados de flutuação, drenagem espontânea de gordura necrótica e infecção local.

A propósito destes casos faz-se uma breve revisão da entidade clínica.

description: Although the Standard Model of particle physics is well established by many experimentssome phenomena are observed that cannot be explained by the Standard Model alone. Furthermorerecent evaluations of experimental data yield results deviating from the Standard Model'spredictions with a significance of up to 4$\sigma$5$\sigma$ . The $B^0\rightarrow K^*(892)^0 \ell^+ \ell^- $ decay is one of those wherenew physics might arise. The Belle detector is being upgraded in order to achieve more precisemeasurements of many variables and to cope with the higher luminosity of the superKEKB collider.In this thesis the sensitivity of the $B^0\rightarrow K^*(892)^0 \mu^+ \mu^- $ decay at the new experimental setup,with the upgraded Belle II detector and superKEKB collider, is analyzed using data from MonteCarlo simulations of the Belle II group. The studies show that, even for the integrated luminosityof the Belle dataset, a higher amount of signal events and better statistical significance canbe expected of the new setup. Even more so for a final integrated luminosity, which is 50 timeshigher than that of the previous experiment.

description: A espondilodiscite é uma entidade rara, caracterizada pela existência de processo inflamatório envolvendo o disco intervertebral que cursa com estreitamento sintomático do espaço intervertebral.

As suas etiologia e patofisiologia são obscuras e controversas, tendo a causa infecciosa sido anteriormente sugerida. O início da sintomatologia é insidioso, e a apresentação clínica dependente da idade da criança afectada. O exame objectivo é, habitualmente, pouco expressivo, sendo em alguns casos possível desencadear dor à palpação do segmento afectado e às manobras de mobilização da coluna, que pode estar limitada. Os meios auxiliares de diagnóstico são pouco contributivos para o diagnóstico. Analiticamente as alterações são inespecíficas, evidenciando-se elevação da velocidade de sedimentação. Os achados radiológicos embora específicos são, geralmente, tardios. A Ressonância Magnética Nuclear é o meio de imagem de escolha para diagnóstico precoce de espondilodiscite.

Além da caracterização das alterações vertebro-discais, fornece informação adicional sobre os tecidos circundantes, nomeadamente no que respeita à existência de abcessos ou colecções epidurais, paravertebrais e do músculo psoas. A baixa especificidade dos sintomas, associada à escassez de achados ao exame objectivo, à ausência de achados laboratoriais patognomónicos e ao aparecimento tardio das alterações radiológicas clássicas justificam o diagnóstico geralmente tardio desta situação, o qual depende de um elevado índice de suspeição clínica. Este facto justifica a importância de relembrar esta patologia, cuja raridade poder obstar à obtenção de um diagnóstico precoce. Neste sentido, os autores apresentam quatro casos de espondilodiscite, atingindo crianças de diferentes escalões etários e, por conseguinte, com apresentações clínicas diferentes.

Steam condensate capture system
Creators: name: Volz, Louis
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2014

description: Bristol Meyers Squibb is a pharmaceutical company that has a campus located in Mt. Vernon, IN. The
campus has recently expanded manufacturing capacity and increased the demand on the current steam
system. The increase of natural gas costs has prompted the company to investigate ways to improve the
efficiency of the steam system.
This project aims to improve efficiency by reducing the amount of "flash steam" that is exhausted to the
atmosphere by recovering the heat and capturing the valuable condensate. This paper will explain the
necessary background of steam systems as well as "flash steam." Five potential options for a steam
condensate capture system were explored and based on requirements and economic analysis of cost
and opportunity costs, a final recommendation is proposed to prevent the condensate from escaping.

description: Transition to hyperchaotic regimes in Rayleigh-Benard convection in a square periodicity cell is studied by three-dimensional numerical simulations. By fixing the Prandtl number at P=0.3 and varying the Rayleigh number as a control parameter, a bifurcation diagram is constructed where a route to hyperchaos involving quasiperiodic regimes with two and three incommensurate frequencies, multistability, chaotic intermittent attractors and a sequence of boundary and interior crises is shown. The three largest Lyapunov exponents exhibit a linear scaling with the Rayleigh number and are positive in the final hyperchaotic attractor. Thus, a route to weak turbulence is found.
title: An analysis of how academic vocabulary development relates to vocabulary learning strategies and the biographical background of English students at the University of Vienna
Creators: name: Ghamarian, Katharina
Year: 2017

description: Diese Studie beschäftigt sich mit einem möglichen Zusammenhang zwischen der Entwicklung des akademischen und hochfrequenten Vokabulars am Englisch Department der Universität Wien und den biographischen Hintergründen der Teilnehmer, sowie mit den Vokabellernstrategien, die angewendet wurden. Siebenunddreißig Englisch Studenten der Universität Wien wurden in diese Studie miteingebunden. Jeder Teilnehmer stellte drei englische Texte zur Verfügung, die in drei verschiedenen Kursen des Sprachkompetenz Programms im Laufe des gesamten Studiums verfasst wurden. Diese Aufsätze wurden anschließend mit Hilfe des Corpus Analyse Programmes AntProfiler analysiert, um Information über die prozentuelle Verteilung von akademischen und hochfrequenten Vokabeln zu erhalten. Des Weiteren, wurden Daten zu den von den Teilnehmern verwendeten Vokabellernstrategien mit Hilfe eines online Fragebogens gesammelt. Die Resultate zeigen klar, dass die Studenten ihr akademisches, technisches und niedrig frequentes Vokabular im Laufe ihres Studiums statistisch signifikant steigern konnten, wozu sich das hochfrequente Vokabular indirekt proportional verhielt. Bei genauerer Analyse konnten jedoch unterschiedliche Kompetenzniveaus hinsichtlich der Vokabelverwendung festgestellt werden. Bezüglich des Zusammenhanges zwischen Vokabelverwendung und biographischen Hintergrundinformationen konnten keine signifikanten Korrelationen gefunden werden. Dasselbe galt für eine mögliche Verbindung zwischen Vokabelverwendung und den angewendeten Vokabellernstrategien. Die Ergebnisse bestätigten jedoch einen statistisch relevanten Zusammenhang zwischen den biographischen Angaben hinsichtlich Gender, Existenz von englischsprachigen Verwandten und besuchtem Schultypus und bestimmten Vokabellernstrategien. Eine qualitative Analyse zeigte des Weitern, dass die Formalität der gewählten Wörter im Laufe des Studiums anstiegen und die Vokabelfehler reduziert wurden. Diese Resultate zeigen, dass es den Studenten am Englisch Department der Universität Wien gelingt, sich zu kompetenteren Mitgliedern der akademischen Gesellschaft heranzubilden. Des Weitern, liefert die Studie kontroverse Ergebnisse hinsichtlich der mangelnden Verbindung zwischen Vokabular Entwicklung und Vokabellernstrategien, die in weiterfolgenden Studien genauer untersucht werden sollte.

The Declaration of Intention to Become a Citizen of the United States: Its Place in Federal Law

description: The "Declaration of Intention" as the first prerequisite to naturalization in the United States, forms a fractional portion of the large and controversial field of nationality. With the ever increasing perfection of the means of international communication, and the consequent tendency of individuals to travel abroad, It becomes more and more important, especially in the cate of the United States, with her large immigrant population, that the rules of nationality be definitely established. Since 1795 the first step toward the acquisition of American nationality has been the declaration of intention to become a citizen.In the present discussion, an attempt has been made to present a scientific analysis of one aspect of the declaration of intention-its place in federal law. It has been sought to interpret the administration of the law in practice in the light of the purpose motivating those responsible for the enactment. Hence, after the subject has been defined and its purpose indicated, the administration of the law has been dealt with in some detail before reviewing the exempted classes created by Congress. Despite the undoubted importance of the subject, it has been necessary to omit, as beyond the scope of the present discussion, many of the most important effects of the declaration of intention.

Let $g: V(G) \rightarrow [0,1]$ be a real valued function and, for any $U \subseteq V(G)$, let $g(U)=\sum_{v \in U}g(v)$. The function $g$ is a strong resolving function of $G$ if $g(S\{x, y\}) \ge 1$ for every pair of distinct vertices $x, y$ of $G$. The fractional strong metric dimension, $sdim_f(G)$, of a graph $G$ is $\min\{g(V(G)): g \mbox{ is a strong resolving function of }G\}$. In this paper, after obtaining some new results for all connected graphs, we focus on the study of the fractional strong metric dimension of the corona product, the lexicographic product, and the Cartesian product of graphs.

description: Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. For any two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ of $G$, let $R\{x, y\}$ denote the set of vertices $z$ such that the distance from $x$ to $z$ is not equal to the distance from $y$ to $z$ in $G$. For a function $g$ defined on $V(G)$ and for $U \subseteq V(G)$, let $g(U)=\sum_{s \in U}g(s)$. Let $κ(G)=\min\{|R\{x,y\}|: x\neq y \mbox{ and } x,y \in V(G)\}$. For any real number $k \in [1, κ(G)]$, a real-valued function $g: V(G) \rightarrow [0,1]$ is a \emph{$k$-resolving function} of $G$ if $g(R\{x,y\}) \ge k$ for any two distinct vertices $x,y \in V(G)$. The \emph{fractional $k$-metric dimension}, $\dim^k_f(G)$, of $G$ is $\min\{g(V(G)): g \mbox{ is a $k$-resolving function of } G\}$. In this paper, we initiate the study of the fractional $k$-metric dimension of graphs. For a connected graph $G$ and $k \in [1, κ(G)]$, it's easy to see that $k \le \dim_f^k(G) \le \frac{k|V(G)|}{κ(G)}$; we characterize graphs $G$ satisfying $\dim_f^k(G)=k$ and $\dim_f^k(G)=|V(G)|$, respectively. We show that $\dim_f^k(G) \ge k \dim_f(G)$ for any $k \in [1, κ(G)]$, and we give an example showing that $\dim_f^k(G)-k\dim_f(G)$ can be arbitrarily large for some $k \in (1, κ(G)]$; we also describe a condition for which $\dim_f^k(G)=k\dim_f(G)$ holds. We determine the fractional $k$-metric dimension for some classes of graphs, and conclude with two open problems, including whether $ϕ(k)=\dim_f^k(G)$ is a continuous function of $k$ on every connected graph $G$.

description: Given an oriented surface of positive genus with finitely many punctures, we classify the finite orbits of the mapping class group action on the moduli space of semisimple complex special linear two dimensional representations of the fundamental group of the surface. For surfaces of genus at least two, such orbits correspond to homomorphisms with finite image. For genus one, they correspond to the finite or special dihedral representations. We also obtain an analogous result for bounded orbits in the moduli space.

Radio Pulsar Beam Geometry at Lower Frequencies: Bright Sources Outside the Arecibo Sky

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: We present pulsar emission beam analyses and models in an effort to examine pulsar geometry and physics at the lowest frequencies scattering permits. We consider two populations of well-studied pulsars that lie outside the Arecibo sky, the first drawing on the Jodrell Bank Gould & Lyne survey down to -35° declination and a second using Parkes surveys in the far south. These assemble the full sky population of 487 pulsars known before the late 1990s which conveniently all have "B" names. We make full use of the core/double-cone emission beam model to assess its efficacy at lower frequencies, and we outline how different pair plasma sources probably underlie its validity. The analysis shows that with a very few exceptions pulsar radio emission beams can be modeled quantitatively with two concentric conal beams and a core beam of regular angular dimensions at 1 GHz. Further, the beamforms at lower frequencies change progressively in size but not in configuration. Pulsar emission-beam properties divide strongly depending on whether the plasma excitation is central within the polar fluxtube producing a core beam or peripheral along the edges generating conal beams, and this seems largely determined by whether their spindown energy is greater or less than about 10$^{32.5}$ ergs/s. Core emission dominated pulsars tend concentrate closely along the Galactic plane and in the direction of the Galactic center; whereas conal pulsars are somewhat more uniformly distributed both in Galactic longitude and latitude. Core dominated pulsars also tend to be more distant and particularly so in the inner Galaxy region.

description: In November, 1917, the Bolshevik! overthrew the Provisional Government of Russia, which the United States had recognized March 22, 1917. One way in which the new government differed from the one which had succeeded the Czarist regime was its refusal to respect the international obligations of preceding governments. The government of the U.S.S.R. does not consider that the treaty obligations contracted by Russia under other governments are binding upon it unless it has specifically agreed to them Itself. The United States government insists that Russia is still a party to the treaties contracted by the Czarist government, except those which have legitimately terminated. The United States government has refused to recognize the Soviet government because it regards it as "deficient in its observance of the fundamental conditions of international intercourse in three respects, namely: (1) its failure to accord to the persons and property of foreigners within its jurisdiction that degree of respect and protection required by international law; (2) its failure to respect the international obligations of preceding governments; and (5) its failure to respect the right of other nations to develop their institutions and to conduct their internal affairs without (5) Interference or control by other states".

description: Thomason's étale descent theorem for Bott periodic algebraic $K$-theory \cite{aktec} is generalized to any $MGL$ module over a regular Noetherian scheme of finite dimension. Over arbitrary Noetherian schemes of finite dimension, this generalizes the analog of Thomason's theorem for Weibel's homotopy $K$-theory. This is achieved by amplifying the effects from the case of motivic cohomology, using the slice spectral sequence in the case of the universal example of algebraic cobordism. We also obtain integral versions of these statements: Bousfield localization at étale motivic cohomology is the universal way to impose étale descent for these theories. As applications, we describe the étale local objects in modules over these spectra and show that they satisfy the full six functor formalism, construct an étale descent spectral sequence converging to Bott-inverted motivic Landweber exact theories, and prove cellularity and effectivity of the étale versions of these motivic spectra.

description: We provide a unified presentation of extensions of the Minimal Dark Matter framework in which new fermionic electroweak multiplets are coupled to each other via the Standard Model Higgs doublet. We study systematically the generic features of all the possibilities, starting with a singlet and two doublets (akin to Bino-Higgsino dark matter) up to a Majorana quintuplet coupled to two Weyl quadruplets. We pay special attention to this last case, since it has not yet been discussed in the literature. We estimate the parameter space for viable dark matter candidates. This includes an estimate for the mass of a quasi-pure quadruplet dark matter candidate taking into account the Sommerfeld effect. We also argue how the coupling to the Higgs can bring the Minimal Dark Matter scenario within the reach of present and future direct detection experiments.

Hilbert schemes and $y$-ification of Khovanov-Rozansky homology

description: We define a deformation of the triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology of a link $L$ depending on a choice of parameters $y_c$ for each component of $L$, which satisfies link-splitting properties similar to the Batson-Seed invariant. Keeping the $y_c$ as formal variables yields a link homology valued in triply graded modules over $\mathbb{Q}[x_c,y_c]_{c\in π_0(L)}$. We conjecture that this invariant restores the missing $Q\leftrightarrow TQ^{-1}$ symmetry of the triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology, and in addition satisfies a number of predictions coming from a conjectural connection with Hilbert schemes of points in the plane. We compute this invariant for all positive powers of the full twist and match it to the family of ideals appearing in Haiman's description of the isospectral Hilbert scheme.

A survey of the New Deal press relations
Creators: name: Barse, Richard H.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: With the advent of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal in March, 1933, an almost new phase of government influence on the press came into being - a phase which had not been widely practiced before during times of peace. That was the positive influencing of the press by the Federal government through the establishment of numerous press bureaus whose principal function was to disseminate news of governmental affairs. This phase of today's news has never been discussed adequately. This study aims to present a picture of the facilities, functions and special techniques of Federal government press relations as carried on by the administration from Washington during the New Deal, and in addition it attempts to appraise the press agency system.

Feature Overcorrelation in Deep Graph Neural Networks: A New Perspective

description: Recent years have witnessed remarkable success achieved by graph neural networks (GNNs) in many real-world applications such as recommendation and drug discovery. Despite the success, oversmoothing has been identified as one of the key issues which limit the performance of deep GNNs. It indicates that the learned node representations are highly indistinguishable due to the stacked aggregators. In this paper, we propose a new perspective to look at the performance degradation of deep GNNs, i.e., feature overcorrelation. Through empirical and theoretical study on this matter, we demonstrate the existence of feature overcorrelation in deeper GNNs and reveal potential reasons leading to this issue. To reduce the feature correlation, we propose a general framework DeCorr which can encourage GNNs to encode less redundant information. Extensive experiments have demonstrated that DeCorr can help enable deeper GNNs and is complementary to existing techniques tackling the oversmoothing issue.

Extended Reduced-Form Framework for Non-Life Insurance

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Finance (q-fin.MF)
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: In this paper we propose a general framework for modeling an insurance liability cash flow in continuous time, by generalizing the reduced-form framework for credit risk and life insurance. In particular, we assume a nontrivial dependence structure between the reference filtration and the insurance internal filtration. We apply these results for pricing and hedging non-life insurance liabilities in hybrid financial and insurance markets, while taking into account the role of inflation under the benchmarked risk-minimization approach. This framework offers at the same time a general and flexible structure, and an explicit and treatable pricing-hedging formula.
