description: According to Christianity, transformation and renewal is necessary for human flourishing. The aim of my thesis is to provide a biblical ontology of human persons that supports a coherent explanation of Pauline transformation and renewal of the mind. I argue that holistic dualism provides a successful ontological framework that coheres with relevant biblical, philosophical, and scientific data. My methodology locates transformation and renewal as entailments in human flourishing and fitness grounded in the fundamental structure of reality. I proceed by carving out a biblical ontology of persons including a matrix for sanctification, the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and a Christological exemplar for human agency. Next, I provide a model of the image of God founded upon the image-bearing agent and agency that coheres with my biblical ontology. I then explicate five views of the human person and soul landing on J. P. Moreland’s organicist view of holistic dualism. Next, I explicate the structure of the soul merging Moreland’s organicist structure with Richard Swinburne’s mental structure and provide an anatomical model of the soul. Finally, I turn to the sciences and provide an account of organismic plasticity and neuroplasticity that coheres with the restructuring of both the immaterial and material structures of the soul and body. In conclusion, I provide a synthesis of three models of transformation from theology, philosophy, and science integrated with Pauline renewal of the mind in concurrence with the agency of the Holy Spirit. I find that holistic dualism provides a successful ontology that unifies the human person and coheres with essential data providing a positive account of Pauline renewal and human flourishing.

description: We study the difference discrete variational principle in the framework of multi-parameter differential approach by regarding the forward difference as an entire geometric object in view of noncomutative differential geometry. By virtue of this variational principle, we get the difference discrete Euler-Lagrange equations and canonical ones for the difference discrete versions of the classical mechanics and classical field theory. We also explore the difference discrete versions for the Euler-Lagrange cohomology and apply them to the symplectic or multisymplectic geometry and their preserving properties in both Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalism. In terms of the difference discrete Euler-Lagrange cohomological concepts, we show that the symplectic or multisymplectic geometry and their difference discrete structure preserving properties can always be established not only in the solution spaces of the discrete Euler-Lagrange/canonical equations derived by the difference discrete variational principle but also in the function space in each case if and only if the relevant closed Euler-Lagrange cohomological conditions are satisfied. We also apply the difference discrete variational principle and cohomological approach directly to the symplectic and multisymplectic algorithms.

Larsen 1996: pl. 9, figs 90 i,ii. d’ Abrera 1997: 105 (4 figs). SI: Figure 32a–h.
 Forewing length: male 21–30.5 mm (mean (n = 6) 26.58 mm, SD = 3.150); female 21– 28 mm (mean (n = 7) 24.11 mm, SD = 1.953).
 Records. Bukoba, Rukwa basin and Northern Highlands; found in open woodland and open montane forest, to 2000 m (Kielland 1990, p.64). Cordeiro (1990) recorded this taxon from Lake Manyara National Park. Although Kielland did not give specific records for Kilimanjaro, and the butterfly was not encountered in the forest zone by Liseki (2009), it is included here as a member of the lower slopes fauna based on a female in BMNH from W. Kilimanjaro, 4500–5000 ft, collected in 1937 by B. Cooper, and a pair from Kilimanjaro collected by F.J. Jackson. In addition, OUMNH has a male from Taveta, and a female from Kilimanjaro, both ex Rogers. Beyond Tanzania this subspecies occurs in Sudan, Ethiopia, DRC (east Kivu), Uganda and Kenya. More widely, the species occurs across much of central Africa, from Senegal to Ethiopia and south to Zambia (Ackery et al. 1995, p.212).
 Males are white, with or without a black forewing apex and margin; females are mostly fairly similar, more or less lightly maculated, and generally with a greyishyellow cast. Larsen (1996, p.143) states that “The smaller D. orbona is very similar [to D. pigea] and the two may be impossible to tell apart”. Talbot (1943b, p.106) originally indicated that female pigea (“fw. 26–32 mm ”) were larger than female orbona (“fore-wing 21–25 mm ”). However, our limited data indicate a substantial overlap in size. Form “nigricans” (SI: Figure 32g,h), first described from Taveta by Aurivillius (1910c: 47), is dusky and this, together with the existence of a number of rare morphs (e.g. the bright orange form noted by Larsen 1996, p.143), indicates that the female of this species is polymorphic as well as variable, including at least two yellow morphs. Talbot (1943b, p.106) gave a key to 11 named female forms for this species.

description: There is a vibrant and effective planetary science community in Canada. We do research in the areas of meteoritics, asteroid and trans-Neptunian object orbits and compositions, and space weather, and are involved in space probe missions to study planetary surfaces and interiors. For Canadian planetary scientists to deliver the highest scientific impact possible, we have several recommendations. Our top recommendation is to join LSST and gain access to the full data releases by hosting a data centre, which could be done by adding to the CADC, which is already highly involved in hosting planetary data and supporting computational modelling for orbital studies. We also support MSE, which can provide spectroscopy and thus compositional information for thousands of small bodies. We support a Canadian-led microsatellite, POEP, which will provide small body sizes by measuring occultations. We support the idea of piggybacking space weather instruments on other astronomical space probes to provide data for the space weather community. Many Canadian planetary scientists are involved in space probe missions, but through haphazard and temporary arrangements like co-appointments at US institutions, so we would like the community to support Canadian researchers to participate in these large, international missions.

description: We compute the vacuum polarisation on the lattice in quenched QCD using non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermions. Above Q^2 of about 2 GeV^2 the results are very close to the predictions of perturbative QCD. Below this scale we see signs of non-perturbative effects which we can describe by the use of dispersion relations. We use our results to estimate the light quark contribution to the muon's anomalous magnetic moment. We find the result 446(23) x 10^{-10}, where the error only includes statistical uncertainties. Finally we make some comments on the applicability of the Operator Product Expansion to our data.

description: We used 0.85 - 5.1 micron 2006 observations by Cassini's Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) to constrain the unusual vertical structure and compositions of cloud layers in Saturn's south polar region, the site of a powerful vortex circulation, shadow-casting cloud bands, and spectral evidence of ammonia ice clouds without the lightning usually associated with such features. We modeled spectral observations with a 4-layer model that includes (1) a stratospheric haze, (2) a top tropospheric layer of non-absorbing (possibly diphosphine) particles near 300 mbar, with a fraction of an optical depth (much less than found elsewhere on Saturn), (3) a moderately thicker layer (1 - 2 optical depths) of ammonia ice particles near 900 mbar, and (4) extending from 5 bars up to 2-4 bars, an assumed optically thick layer where NH4SH and H20 are likely condensables. What makes the 3-micron absorption of ammonia ice unexpectedly apparent in these polar clouds, is not penetrating convection, but instead the relatively low optical depth of the top tropospheric cloud layer, perhaps because of polar downwelling and/or lower photochemical production rates. We did not find any evidence for optically thick eyewalls that were previously thought to be responsible for the observed shadows. Instead, we found evidence for small step-wise decreases in optical depth of the stratospheric haze near 87.9 deg S and in the putative diphosphine layer near 88.9 deg S, which are the likely causes of shadows and bright features we call antishadows. We found changes as a function of latitude in the phosphine vertical profile and in the arsine mixing ratio that support the existence of downwelling within 2 deg of the pole.

Larsen 1996: pl. 11, figs 105 i,ii. d’ Abrera 1997: 113 (3 figs). SI: Figure 34g –j.
 Forewing length: male 29–35 mm (mean (n = 5) 32.08 mm, SD = 1.921); female 28.5–35 mm (mean (n = 7) 31.84 mm, SD = 1.908).
 Records. Kielland (1990, p.65) considered this butterfly to be widespread throughout Tanzania, occurring in deciduous woodlands, forest margins and clearings, even gardens, from sea level to 2200 m. Rogers (1908, p.537) recorded a single female from Kilimanjaro, collected 26–31 January 1906, apparently at about 5000 ft elevation (c. 1600 m); this specimen, together with several males and females from Taveta, is preserved at OUMNH. One male and three females were reported from Kibongoto, Kilimanjaro, by Aurivillius (1910a, p.11), occurring at up to 1200 m, where the species was encountered in April and December. Specimens in BMNH include several from Engaruka (about 100 km west of Kilimanjaro), and a single male from Old Moshi. On this basis, M. agathina is included as part of the lower slopes fauna.
 Beyond Tanzania, nominate agathina is very widespread in the eastern half of Africa, from Sudan south to South Africa. A second subspecies occurs in Cameroon, Central African Republic, Uganda and Ituri (DRC) (Ackery et al. 1995).
This is a dimorphic species, the male upperside ground colour being pure white, while most females are a vibrant orangey-yellow – although they can be paler, with some almost white, male-like. Females, on average, have slightly larger “dotted border” spots on the hindwings.

description: Decaying axion-like particles (ALP) with masses in the eV range which might occupy dark matter halos of the Milky Way and other galaxies produce a characteristic "bump" feature in the spectrum of extragalactic background light (EBL). This feature leaves an imprint on the gamma-ray spectra of distant extragalactic sources. We derive constraints on the ALP coupling to photons based on analysis of spectra of very-high-energy gamma-ray loud blazars. We combine gamma-ray spectral measurements by Fermi/LAT and Cherenkov telescopes and fit a model in which the intrinsic source spectrum is modified by pair production on photons produced by ALP decays. We constrain the amplitude of gamma-ray flux suppression by this effect. We find that the combined Fermi/LAT and VERITAS data set for the source 1ES 1218+304 currently provides the tightest constraint on ALP-two-photon coupling which is complementary to the constraints imposed by non-observation of excess energy loss in Horizontal Branch stars, by the high-resolution spectroscopic observations of galaxy clusters with optical telescopes and by the searches of ALP signal with CERN Solar Axion Telescope. Our analysis favours existence of a bump in the EBL spectrum which could be produced by ALPs in the mass range 2-3 eV and axion-photon coupling $\sim 10^{-10}$ GeV$^{-1}$. We discuss possibilities for verification of this hint with deeper Cherenkov telescope observations of large number of blazars with current generation instruments and with the Cherenkov Telescope Array.

description: Pairs of trapped atoms can be associated to make a diatomic molecule using a time dependent magnetic field to ramp the energy of a scattering resonance state from above to below the scattering threshold. A relatively simple model, parameterized in terms of the background scattering length and resonance width and magnetic moment, can be used to predict conversion probabilities from atoms to molecules. The model and its Landau-Zener interpretation are described and illustrated by specific calculations for $^{23}$Na, $^{87}$Rb, and $^{133}$Cs resonances. The model can be readily adapted to Bose-Einstein condensates. Comparison with full many-body calculations for the condensate case show that the model is very useful for making simple estimates of molecule conversion efficiencies.

The Mad Road: A Creative Exploration of Irish Diasporic Experience
Creators: name: Cusack, Paul L.
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The thesis is in two parts. The first part is a collection of short stories on Irish Diaspora − The Mad Road. There is, I believe, a distinct lack of short fiction about Irish lives lived in England, and I felt this gap needed addressing. These stories engage with the Irish community and the nullifying grind of work. They examine the social pressures of diasporic existence experienced in England and Ireland. The collection is written from a second generational Irish working-class perspective and the stories tackle urban realties in a dark-realist way. The stories deal with issues including emigration, derelict life-style, alcoholism, loneliness and corruption. Because of my lifelong immersion in Irish culture, both in Ireland and Leicester, I feel uniquely placed to capture hidden aspects of Irish expatriate experience. The Mad Road is accompanied by an extended reflective analysis where I argue that critical theory and creative writing can inform each other. My dual perspective as both a writer and volunteer with The Emerald Centre has been of fundamental importance to my creative process. I discuss some of the interactions that I have experienced volunteering at the Centre, and their effects on my writing. I argue that my inside/outside-writer/researcher perspective has furthered understanding and helped shape my stories. Each chapter of the commentary examines one aspect of diasporic experience, and how it has influenced and inspired my creative practice. Writing from inside Leicester’s Irish community has offered me a unique insight into diasporic life, which triggered story ideas and offered other useful lines of research. It also became clear, once I started absorbing primary and theoretical texts relating to Irish Diaspora and post-colonial theory, that there were visible and invisible forces at play behind individual experiences. These forces have impacted on the first, second and third generation Irish emigrants. My thesis attempts to come to terms with these cultural, social and economic forces through creative practice.

description: Stochastic parameterizations account for uncertainty in the representation of unresolved sub-grid processes by sampling from the distribution of possible sub-grid forcings. Some existing stochastic parameterizations utilize data-driven approaches to characterize uncertainty, but these approaches require significant structural assumptions that can limit their scalability. Machine learning models, including neural networks, are able to represent a wide range of distributions and build optimized mappings between a large number of inputs and sub-grid forcings. Recent research on machine learning parameterizations has focused only on deterministic parameterizations. In this study, we develop a stochastic parameterization using the generative adversarial network (GAN) machine learning framework. The GAN stochastic parameterization is trained and evaluated on output from the Lorenz '96 model, which is a common baseline model for evaluating both parameterization and data assimilation techniques. We evaluate different ways of characterizing the input noise for the model and perform model runs with the GAN parameterization at weather and climate timescales. Some of the GAN configurations perform better than a baseline bespoke parameterization at both timescales, and the networks closely reproduce the spatio-temporal correlations and regimes of the Lorenz '96 system. We also find that in general those models which produce skillful forecasts are also associated with the best climate simulations.

Larsen 1996: pl. 11, figs 110 i,ii. d’ Abrera 1997: 117 (4 figs). SI: Figure 36e–j.
 Forewing length: male 24–29 mm (mean (n = 5) 27.26 mm, SD = 1.641); female 25–30 mm (mean (n = 6) 27.87 mm, SD = 1.776).
 Records. Pare Mts and Northern Highlands including Loliondo, in heavy woodland, forest margins and open forest, at c. 600–2000 m elevation (Kielland 1990, p.68). Kielland did not cite specific records for the Northern Highlands, but material in the BMNH (from 4000–5000 ft collected by B. Cooper, and from Old Moshi collected by Selous) confirms its presence. This species has been reported as apparently migrating in large numbers near Moshi, in June 1928 (Williams 1930, p.158). Rogers (1908, p.537) noted one female (as “ M. poppea ”) from Kilimanjaro collected in January 1906; Aurivillius (1910a, p.11) recorded this butterfly in the Kibongoto area, up to 1800 m, during May, September and October. There are several specimens from the slopes of Kilimanjaro and from Taveta in OUMNH. Liseki (2009) observed this species on Kilimanjaro from March to November, at 2000 m.
 There is variation in the amount and extent of yellow and orange flushing to the fore and hindwing bases – and this can lead to uncertainties over identification (see under M. superbus, below). Females are male-like or yellowish, probably dimorphic. Beyond Tanzania subspecies tirikensis occurs in Uganda and the Kenya highlands. The species occurs throughout much of eastern Africa, in a series of races from Ethiopia to South Africa, extending to the west as far as southeastern Angola (Ackery et al. 1995, p.223). Like M. kilimensis, on Kilimanjaro M. rueppellii appears primarily to be a denizen of the lower slopes, just entering the margin of the forest zone at around 2000 m.

description: We describe the spaces of minimal rank last syzygies for the Mukai Varieties of sectional genus 6,7 and 8. Based on this we show: 1. The first geometric syzygies of a general canonical curve of genus 6 form a non degenerate configuration of 5 lines in P^4. 2. The first geometric syzygies of a general canonical curve of genus 7 form a non degenerate, linearly normal, ruled surface of degree 84 on a spinor variety S in P^15. 3. The second geometric syzygies of a general canonical curve of genus 8 form a non degenerate configuration of 14 conics on a 2-uple embedded P^5 in P^20. This proves a natural generalization of Green's conjecture [1984], namely that the geometric syzygies should span the space of all syzygies, in these cases. We have generalized results 1 and 3 to general curves of even genus in math.AG/0108078. Result 2 is the main new result of this paper.

description: This case is intended for use by undergraduate students studying agricultural economics, agribusiness, animal science, or food science. Junior level class standing, or higher, would be beneficial. The learning outcomes sought from this case are for students to: (1) distinguish between a commodity marketing system versus a vertically integrated brand; (2) understand the first-mover advantages that have been realized by CAB; and (3) understand the problem of Angus confusion and then explore its possible solutions. A teaching note associated with this case expands upon the above. The note incorporates an excel-formatted data set. With this information, the case can be customized by the professor for use as an exercise; therefore making the case suitable for use in a quantitative analysis class in agricultural economics.

What is the simplest effective approach to hot QCD thermodynamics?

description: The dimensionally reduced action is believed to provide for a theoretically consistent and numerically precise effective description of the thermodynamics of the quark-gluon plasma, once the temperature is above a few hundred MeV. Although dramatically simpler than the original QCD it is, however, still a strongly interacting, confining theory. In this talk I speculate on whether there could exist a further simplified recipe within that theory, for physically relevant temperatures, which would already lead to a phenomenologically satisfactory description of the free energy and various correlation lengths of hot QCD, but with only a minimal amount of numerical non-perturbative input needed.

description: We have used an electron beam ion trap to measure electron-density-diagnostic line-intensity ratios for extreme ultraviolet lines from F XII, XIII, and XIV at wavelengths of 185-205 255-276 Angstroms. These ratios can be used as density diagnostics for astrophysical spectra and are especially relevant to solar physics. We found that density diagnostics using the Fe XIII 196.53/202.04 and the Fe XIV 264.79/274.21 and 270.52A/274.21 line ratios are reliable using the atomic data calculated with the Flexible Atomic Code. On the other hand, we found a large discrepancy between the FAC theory and experiment for the commonly used Fe XII (186.85 + 186.88)/195.12 line ratio. These FAC theory calculations give similar results to the data tabulated in CHIANTI, which are commonly used to analyze solar observations. Our results suggest that the discrepancies seen between solar coronal density measurements using the Fe XII (186.85 + 186.88)/195.12 and Fe XIII 196.54/202.04 line ratios are likely due to issues with the atomic calculations for Fe XII.

description: Determining bladder sensation pattern in healthy people is challenging, as there is sparse evidence on how individuals perceive it. A rapid, non-invasive water-load protocol had been developed and used previously to assess bladder sensation but the reliability remained unproven. In this study I validated the protocol and then examined the pattern of bladder sensation in healthy volunteers before comparing this with patients with different lower urinary-tract symptoms (LUTS). A test-retest analysis in twelve healthy volunteers showed no difference in median volume of first void (p=0.43). A fixed diuresis rate was achieved (12.1ml/min [8.9- 17.2]). Although no difference was found in the diuresis rate when drinking 250ml/15min (n=7) and 300ml/15min (n=5), the variation was reduced when drinking 300ml (3.03 ml/min [1.55-4.54]). A second validation test was done using 300ml/15min only, and confirmed the previous results. I identified the upper 95% confidence interval of diuresis rate variation as 4.5ml/min. The final protocol was validated as drinking 300ml/15min and using a cut off for exclusion by variation in diuresis rate between cycles of more than 4.5 ml/min. In a confirmatory validation study, 21 volunteers completed the final protocol. After excluding those with diuresis rate variation over the threshold there were 16 participants for analysis. Median voids or diuresis rates within or between tests were not different. Area under the curve (AUC) was calculated from bladder sensation curves and was reproducible: median 404.96 [247.28-557.14] in test 1 vs 418.63 [262.50- 596.02] in test 2 (p=0.234). These data provided proof of concept that AUC is a valid analysis. Finally, 74 patients with different LUTS were compared. Bladder sensation patterns were exactly the same in all groups when comparing AUC (p=0.853). This thesis validated a bladder sensation protocol, and demonstrated that bladder sensation develops identically in volunteers and patients with different LUTS and conditions.
title: High overcommitment and low reward as potential predictors for increased depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and suicide risk in German veterinarians

description: Higher rates of depression, suicidal ideation and suicide risk have been reported for veterinarians in Germany. In this study, several demographic and job-related factors were examined to determine whether they could be considered possible predictors of depression, suicidal ideation, and suicide risk. For this purpose, a survey was conducted among veterinarians in Germany. The demographic factors surveyed were gender, age, working status (employed/self-employed), income, field of work (practicing/non-practicing veterinarian), weekly working hours and community size. For assessing job-related factors, the Effort-Reward-Imbalance questionnaire (effort, reward, overcommitment), several subscales of the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire (quantitative demands, emotional demands, demands for hiding emotions, meaning of work, work-privacy-conflict, thoughts of leaving the job) and the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory were used. A hierarchical logistic regression analysis was performed with the demographic and job-related factors as independent variables and depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and suicide risk as dependent variables, respectively. A total of 3.118 veterinarians (78.8% female) between 22 and 69 years (mean age 41.3 years) were included in the study. The factors used resulted in the highest variance explanation for depressive symptoms (57%), followed by suicidal ideation (34%) and suicide risk (23%). Low reward and high overcommitment were found to be the most important predictors of depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and suicide risk. Significant relationships with depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and suicide risk were also found for burnout, demands for hiding emotions, and thoughts of leaving the job. The results of this study point to opportunities for changes in the veterinary working environment, for the development of prevention and intervention programs for veterinarians, and for the further development of the veterinary curriculum to strengthen the mental health of veterinarians in Germany.
title: Chromatic processing and receptive-field structure in neurons of the anterior optic tract of the honeybee brain

description: Color vision in honeybees is a well-documented perceptual phenomenon including multiple behavioral tests of trichromaticity and color opponency. Data on the combined color/space properties of high order visual neurons in the bee brain is however limited. Here we fill this gap by analyzing the activity of neurons in the anterior optic tract (AOT), a high order brain region suggested to be involved in chromatic processing. The spectral response properties of 72 units were measured using UV, blue and green light stimuli presented in 266 positions of the visual field. The majority of these units comprise combined chromatic-spatial processing properties. We found eight different neuron categories in terms of their spectral, spatial and temporal response properties. Color-opponent neurons, the most abundant neural category in the AOT, present large receptive fields and activity patterns that were typically opponent between UV and blue or green, particularly during the on-tonic response phase. Receptive field shapes and activity patterns of these color processing neurons are more similar between blue and green, than between UV and blue or green. We also identified intricate spatial antagonism and double spectral opponency in some receptive fields of color-opponent units. Stimulation protocols with different color combinations applied to 21 AOT units allowed us to uncover additional levels of spectral antagonism and hidden inhibitory inputs, even in some units that were initially classified as broad-band neurons based in their responses to single spectral lights. The results are discussed in the context of floral color discrimination and celestial spectral gradients.

description: This paper studies the effect on equilibrium prices adventing from the presence of a safety net during financial crises. It is shown that, by inflating prices with the insurance provided through its intervention policy, a government might be sowing the seeds of a crisis that its intention is to prevent in the first place. The model developed is one with risk-neutral agents facing a static decision problem, under different (i) frameworks - with and without the possibility of intervention - and (ii) informational scenarios - imperfect, perfect and common prior information. Intervention occurs whenever the combined return of those in the market goes below a certain threshold. By having different frameworks and scenarios, the impact of the safety net on a diverse class of assets can be studied. Equilibrium prices are shown to be always higher in the framework with the possibility of intervention, regardless of the informational scenario. There is a limit on price inflation, however, since an equilibrium fails to exist in those instances where high prices indicate an intervention to be imminent. The effect on prices of an increase in the degree of uncertainty turns out to be dependent on the supply level of the asset.

description: Cognitive deficits are barriers to job acquisition or return to school, and can be reduced through Cognitive remediation therapy (CRT). The main goal of this multiple case study was to investigate the effect of personalized CRT on occupational status in three participants with a recent-onset psychosis. Two cases improved their occupational status at post-treatment, and showed improvements in cognitive, psychological, and/or clinical variables. This study suggests that personalized CRT may facilitate job acquisition or return to school. However, the different pathways showed by our cases indicate that personalized CRT may influence occupational status through multiple mechanisms, underlining the relevance of treatment personalization.

description: The Raspberry Pi camera module is widely used in open source hardware projects as a low cost camera sensor. However, when the stock lens is removed and replaced with other custom optics the sensor will return a non-uniform background and colour response which hampers the use of this excellent and popular image sensor. This effect is found to be due to the sensor's optical design as well as due to built-in corrections in the GPU firmware, which is optimised for a short focal length lens. In this work we characterise and correct the vignetting and colour crosstalk found in the Raspberry Pi camera module v2, presenting two measures that greatly improve the quality of images using custom optics. First, we use a custom "lens shading table" to correct for vignetting of the image, which can be done in real time in the camera's existing processing pipeline (i.e. the camera's low-latency preview is corrected). The second correction is a colour unmixing matrix, which enables us to reverse the loss in saturation at the edge of the image, though this requires post-processing of the image. With both of these corrections in place, it is possible to obtain uniformly colour-corrected images, at the expense of slightly increased noise at the edges of the image.
Saturation at Hadron Colliders

description: We extend the saturation models a la Golec-Biernat and Wusthoff to cross-sections of hard processes initiated by virtual-gluon probes separated by large rapidity intervals at hadron colliders. We derive their analytic expressions and apply them to physical examples, such as saturation effects for Mueller-Navelet forward jets. By comparison to gamma*-gamma* cross-sections we find a more abrupt transition to saturation. We propose to study observables with a potentially clear saturation signal and to use heavy vector and flavored mesons as alternative hard probes to forward jets.
